Dearmont. | knew he succeeded an
earnest, conservative and well-known
educator in this part of Missouri. l
wanted to measure his address and

and most successful Presidents that
ever administered the affairs of the
Normal.

He spoke like an educator. not like

like a demagogue reciting a declaraa

he persuad%-s yo,l that he is entirely
sincere and iacapable of deception or

c,ates IN the operation OF the big Carnegie steel
Milan there and the result OF these conferences
Henry c. Prick chairman Of tho Carnegie Company
retired from his position Since his retirement the
air has been full OF rumors abou, the cause OF his
sudden decision 10 step down and out. 1t has been
said that Mr. Frick disagreed witt Mr. Carnegie
IN matters OF policy. Mr. Frick II Is reported,
favored holding the product Of the mills for higher
prices which he thought were bound TO come, while
Mr. Carnegie favored selling at once for whatever
could be received and taking profits as they came.
This is story.
Another story relates TO the option which Mr..
Carnegie recently gave to Mr. Prick and his asso-
ciates and 70 bind which Mr. Frick and his friends
posted 81 10000 forfeit This provided for the or
ganizaton OF a company to take over Mr.. Carnege's
interests II is said that after Mr.. Carnegie gave
this option Mr. Frick and his friends started out TO
finance the company, but met with IN unex-
pected impeachment 1t is reported that the nanciers
who we're approached and asked 10 put up money
for the new company asked Mr. Carnege's advice
and the latter frankly advised them not 10 PIT their
money into II. This Is said 10 have embittered Mr.
Frick. he saw in It not only the defeat OF his
plan for taking over the whole company but also
the absorption OF the 81 100000 OF himself and his
friends by Mr. Carnegie
Whatever the circumstances are. the fact remains
that Mr.. Frick has resigned and II Is said that
he and Mr.. Carnegie have had TIT kilograms
received from Pittsburg last night say that Mr.
Prick and other Carnegie officials refuse discuss
the matter. Mr.. Carnegie a passenger on the
Pennsylvania Limited last evening This train is

the affairs Of the company was unsuccessful Mr.
Carnegie went at 10 his home, No West
