STEEL TRUSTS HEAD
REAL DIRECTOR AND FOUNDER OF
THAT BIG ENTERPRISE.
Personality of the Man Who Has
Attracted Attention by Declaring
That MonopoIies Are Wrong and
Trusts Beneficial.


Mr.. Elbert ii. Gary Is chairman of
the executive committee of the United
States Steel corporation. He is the
real head of that great Industrial or
ganization. Through a resent widely
published interview, in which he took
the somewhat surprising position that
while monopolies are all wrong and
utterly indefensible trusts are highly
beneficial concerns. Mr.. Gary has been
brought into more or less prominence.
His ideas seem TO have been generally
accepted as interesting even If unique.
Unlike many of this country's sue
cessful men, Mr.. Gary was not com
PEELED TO struggle against poverty in
his youth. His father Erastus Gary,
was a wealthy landowner In Du Page
county, ILL.,, and there the future trust
defender and foe Of monopoly first saw
the light of day In 1916.
Until 1898 Mr.. Gary made his home
at Wheaton, ILL.,, his native town. when
on his election as president of the Fed
eral Steel company he removed TO New
York.
1t was Mr.. Gary who organized the
Federal Steel company. and it was his
brain more than any other which united
the fifteen great companies which form
the United States Steel corporation,
with its stock and bond capitalization
of 81 800, 259, 800, the most stupendous
and farreaching financial creation of
human ingenuity. Today he is the real
director of its policies and activities,
one Of the foremost captains of indus
try.
The advantages of wealth made Mr..
Gary's youthful pathway smooth. He
received liberal education in the COM
mon schools and at college. He studied
law with a prominent firm of attorneys
for two years before entering the Union
Law college of Chicago. He was ad-
mitted to the bar In 1867, but did not
begin practice on his own account until
1870. The three years interim was
spent as deputy clerk of the superior
court of Cook county, III.
Early in his legal career Mr.. Gary
devoted himself to a study of the law
affecting corporations. He became the
general counsel for number of rail.
roads. bonding and trust companies
and. among others, the American Steel
and Wire company and the Illinois
Steel company.
Mr.. Gary's talents as an organizer
were illustrated in the formation Of the
American Steel and Wire company,

over the fitted foundation, but can be
left unlined when preferred.
The lining is simply fitted and ter

and backs of the waist are smooth at
the upper portion. but drawn down in
gathers at the waist line. The box
