CiSEJE RESUMED U. S. Attorney Refers to Al- leged Maintenance of Uni form Steel Prices if THE "BATTLE CRT Carolina Men of Asheville and This Section Expect to See Caolina Win Nov. 26. Philadelphia, Oct. 27. When argu ment was resumed yesterday In the dissolution suit of the government against the United States Steel corpor ation indications were that addresses of lawyers would not be finally con- eluded tonight. Twenty-three hours already have been consumed by attor neys In the presentation of argument Henry E. Cotton, special assistant to the attorney general was the first speaker toduy. Mr. Cotton, who spoke for more than six hours last Friday, In resum ing yesterday reverted to the alleged maintenance of uniform prices of steel products for long periods after the formation of the steel corporation. The government charges that the uni form prices maintained by the steel company and In defendants resulting from the Gary dinners in New York which were attended by a majority of the iron and steel members of the United States Steel corporation. Mr. Cotton urged that witnesses the gov ernment had called and the docu ments It had presented In evidence clearly proved that the steel corpora tion took the lead In having the In dependents go along without keeping up prices. David A. Reed of Pittsburgh, of counsel for the steel corporation, fol lowed Mr. Colton. He defended An drew Carnegie's action In disposing of his Interests to ths steel corpora tion when it was organized. Mr. Reed said Mr. Carnegie, had no thought that the corporation Intended to monopolise the steel business, Mr. Carnegie's ons thought he said, was to devote his Urns to philanthropy.

Alumni of the university here and supporters of the team through years of defeat have been watching ths work of the team this year ever since "Dogtjle" Trenchard and his assistants brought the boys to Kanuga Jake in August to begin training. It has been considered the alumni's team. Just as much as It Is the university's team, and the outcome of Saturday's game was awaited with keen anticipation. That victory Saturday was the match which fired a mine that has been planted In the hearts of univer sity men for nearly ten years since Carolina administered her last drub bing to Virginia. Carolina men In Ashevlllo and western North Caro lina now are as certain that Virginia la gelng to get "tier's" on Thanksgiv ing day as they are certain of the game being played. Not only are they convinced of this, but they are deter mined to see the job well done. They are going to Richmond. In past years several of them prospects have not been very bright for Carolina to win ths Thanksgiving game, and for that reason there has not been a great number attending from this city and section. Now the situation is reversed. Discussion of p(ans began Saturday night for taking a solid Pullman car of Carolina root ers to Richmond November 16, and by sundown last night these plans hal grown to proportions of a train load.
