Neither "Was Schwab So Favored That He Could Make an Enormous Profit Oh HI Plant. ' TRENTON". N. J., June 22. Argument was commenced in the United States Cir cuit Court today before Judge Xlrkpat rlck in tho case of the application of Ro land R. Cpnklin and others for the ap pointment of a receiver for the United States Shipbuilding Company. Each side had a big array of counsel. Represent ing the complainant were R. V. Llnad bury, Henry "Wootman and Henry Uller meyer. Counsel for the shipbuilding com pany were Charles I. Corbln, Attorney General McCarthy and Charles C. Dem lng. The case -was opened by Mr. "Wootman reading at length the bill" of complaint, the substance of which has already been published. During the reading Mr. "Woot man brought out the facts that Charles M. Schwab had received for the Bethle hem Steel "Works $30,000,000, made up as follows: 510,000.000 preferred stock. $10,000, 000 common stock and $10,000,000 of collat eral bonds. Judge Kirkpatrick asked what the col lateral consisted of, and was told that it embraced two mortgages, one on the Bethlehem plant and another on the ship building company's entire property. He made a humorous comment to the effect that Schwab was well secured. "When the reading of the bill of "com plaint was completed, Mr. "Wootman be gan reading the exhibits on the case, one of which was a statement issued by the Republic Trust Company, containing a very flattering statement of the com pany's condition. Mr. Corbln objected to tins exhibit as not properly before the court. Judge Kirkpatrick remarked that the statement seemed to favor the defend ant, but that at any rate it was Immater ial, as what the court wanted to get at was the company's present condition, and not what somebody else thought or said was its condition some months ago. "When Mr. "Wootman had concluded read ing the bill of complaint and the ac companying affidavits, Attorney-General McCarty rose to read the answer and also the affidavits of Lwis Nixon, the presi dent, and A. C. Gary, secretary, of the company. General Denial of Complaint. The answer, in the main, is a general denial of the salient points of the bill of complaint. It denies absolutely that there was any insolvency, and states tha the company was able to meet its obliga tions. It was stated that no arrangement had been made whereby bonds were to be issued on account of the Bethlehem plant; that the plant was not separately acquired: that It was Included in the gen eral purchase, and that the promoter was neither Nixon nor Schwab, but John "W. Young: that the value paid was a matter of Judgment, and that good judgment had been exercised in the purchase. It was denied that any excessive prices had been paid and the company denied that it had made any exaggerated statement as to the company's condition. The company dented absolutely any re sponsibility for the statement put by the Republic Trust Company. The statement given the New York Stock Exchange, it was asserted, was given In good faith. "While it contained some errors, as after ward discovered, they were immaterial. It was denied also that the company was under control of Schwab, or that there had ,been any understanding between Nixon and Schwab along the lines intro duced in the bill of complaint, Nlxon 3Cot the. Father of Trust. The affidavit of Mr. Nixon was a sweep ing denial of the charges in the bill of complaint. He said he had absolutely nothing to do with the conception or carry ing out of the formation of the United States Shipbuilding Company. The pro moter, he said, was John "W. Young and what he (Nixon) did was to give Young an option on his own plant. Naturally, he said, ho had been .applied to for ad vice as to the advantages of the con solidation, and whenever asked he stated he believed the combination would be a good thing, and that it would increase earnings. He also gave as his opinion, based on his experience of IS" years in the ship building business, that the plants ab sorbed, not Including the Bethlehem works, were worth $20,000,000. Mr Nixon said that he had absolutely nothing to do with the selection of those companies outside of the Crescent Com pany that were to form the United States Shipbuilding Company. He denied that he, with other directors of the company or anybody else employed by the Trust Company of the Republic, through, or by their means or agency, caused the circu lation and publication of the statement put out by the Republic Company. He said he never saw the circular until after It had been published. He denied also that there had been any arrangement between Schwab and him self whereby Schwab should acquire the plant of the Bethlehem Company, and thereafter sell the same to the United States Shipbuilding Company at an enormous profit. On the contrary, he said the facts were that Schwab had acquired tho Bethlehem plant long before tho formation of the shipbuilding company. He also denied that ho had recommended or approved the supposed reorganization plan with a view to having a supposed investigation and exposure of his conduct as an officer or director of the shipbuild ing company, and he also denied that there had been any misconduct on his part in the management of the company. The affidavit of Mr. Gary was to the effect that the. United States Shipbuild ing Company was entirely solvent. This closed the toklng pf testimony and adjournment was taken until tomorrow.
