Schwab and Superintendent Corey OF the Car
negie Steel Company. The story IL that Ed
ward Sill. clerk in the Homestead ofice OF
the Carnegie Company. discovered In January.
1893. that the armor plate records were being
changed. These records show the progress
Of the plates from start to finish. and were
entered By Sill In passbooks. The books were
turned over By Sill to Manager schwab and
Superintendent Corey. who In turn entered
them officially on the books OF the company
for transmission to Washington.
Sill took others into his confidence In order
to more fully pursue the Investigations One
day he received an order from Schwab to de-
stroy all the passbooks In his care relating to
the armor plate. This Sill pretended to do
but instead he took the books homo with him.
Soon additional Information OF commercial
value was secured. It was found that plates
were being tempered only ut the ends. and
that the Government regulations regarding
Sponsors had been entirely disrsgarded. Only
the ends Of plates were tested By Government
Inspectors
The approved plates are placed together for
shipment 1t Is said. however. that at night
when the naval inspectors were not about
plates which had not passed inspection were
substituted for those which had. and were
