c. VI. sCHwAB's SALARY.
Story Concerning it Which is Contributed to
]. p. Morgan,

The Herald has thes following special
from Cincinnati, Ohio:
''NTr. ]. P. Morgan is credited with
telling the following story concerning q
gift of Andrew Carnegie to Charles M.
Schwab, now president of the United
States Steel Corporation:
Mr. Schwab astounded me by telling
me that he was reeei2ing a salary of
81 100000 per year as president of the
Carnegie companies. Il know no man can
be worth that much salary he sad
"but I'll tell you how it happened that
such q salary was given me. bout a
year before the reorganization of the
Carnegie interests, or ahou. two years
ago, ! refused .stonishingly liberal
terms to sever my connection with the
Carnegie interests and take charge of
some large manufacturing interests in
Germany. 1t came to Mr.. Carnegie's
ears, and one day | was astounded to
receive from him contract assuring me
of a salary of $1000,000 a year for ave
years.
i told Mr.. Schwab, continued Mr..
Morgan, that | had never heard OF any
such salary as that and that to assume
the contract along with the other obliga-
tions of the Carnegie interests might in
all probability be impossible to the new
corporation He drew paper from his
pocket and said: Mr. Morgan, here is
my contract. 1t has been in force for
two years, and in that time l have
drawn only 100000 against my salary
account.
Il am fully aware of fact that sem
timent, and not business, led Mr.. Carne-
gle TO draw that contract ! appreciate
now that il offers an obstacle to this
project which is vastly favorable to the
Carnegie interests
'Thereupon, continued Mr. Morgan,
MIR. Schwab tore his contract to pieces
before my eyes. ! told Mr.. Carnegie of
the matter. He said: 81 shall send him
my check for the amount he lost when
he destroyed the contract Mr.. Carre-
gle drew his check for s4,S00,0O0 and sent
it to Mr.. Schwab.

White Caps in Macon County.
Franklin Press

A crowd of white caps made a raid
Saturday night on a quarter inhabited by
very undesirable class of citizens, of
somewhat indeterminate color, about
three miles below Franklin, and whipped
number of the denzens, and tore down
the house. On Sunday night the white
caps returned to the scene and burned the
logs of the cabin. The object seems to
have been to abate disgusting nuisance.

THE DAY IN NEW YORK.
Uncertain Weather Prevents Many
From Enjoying an Outing.


NEW YORK. July Punk, powder.
and shat kind Of patriotism that mani
/ tests itself on Independence Day in a sort
Of Chinese New Year celebration, were
noticeably less in evidence here today
than on previous July Fourths for several
years past This feature of the day was
discounted days ago by the statements Of
dealers Of explosives and pyrotechnicaI
things that there had been a great fall
ing of in the demand for mere noise
| makers. although the sales Of set pieces
and similar fireworks had been heavier
than ever.
The dealers said that they thought
there would be lot Of gorgeous displays
here and hereabOuts tonight. but from
the looks Of the skies and. Judging from
the state Of the weather generally today.
IL was not such a hazardous guess that
exhibitions. public and private, slated for
| tonight. might have to go over The small
boy was abroad at an unearthIy hour this
morning and in fact it seemed as though
ne stayed up all night exploding his caps,
toy pistols and cannons, and his fire
! crackers and bombs Some of the few
suburbanites who came to town today
reported that the city was as quiet as the
grave compared with the places they left
OF came through
The closing Of the Stock Exchange and
the practical suspension Of business by
large concerns until Monday. the complete
shutdown Of many factories a day or two
ago until It should be certain that the hot
spell was ended and the regular holiday
closing Of stores. shops. and offices. gave
a large opportunity to workers to get
away from the city and advantage was
taken of it
The holiday suspension of business was
even more complete today than usual. be
cause employers were only too willing
70 allow employees chance to get back
some Of the energy lost in the last few
days in battling with the heat
A good many programmes for the hoIi-
day were spoiled by the unfavorabIe
weather conditions. Persons who had
PINNED to make excursions today Carried
out their plans with forebodings. OF else
gave them up altogether. Railroad and
steamboat lines made arrangements to 10
a rushing business today, but there were
no such crowds Of patrons as were to be
expec- ID had the day been fairer. Sport
ing events were affected. at least in the
matter OF attendance. by the prospects for
more or less heavy rain.
Of course, there was a general flag
raising today. Office buildings, public ana
private residences, and clubs. all flew the
Stars and Stripes from an early hour
and there was enough wind to display the
beauty Of the flags.
