Charles NJ. Schwab president OF the
United States Steel Corporation. who went
abroad last August in search OF rest ano
health, got home yesterday on the North
German Lloyd steamer Kronprlnz Wilhelm
looking very much as though he had found
both.
When Mr.. Schwab left here seven months
ago he was In very bad health and some OF
his intimate friends were worried about
him. He never looked better in his life
than he did late yesterday afternoon, when
he came prancing down the gangplank oil
the big liner and held out both hands To
the crowd Of men and women friends who
were there 10 meet him, lie has grown
triAe stouter, his cheeks we're rcd and his
eyes clear, and he was altogether picture
of perfect health and strength
Mr.. Schwab was accompanied home by
Mrs. Schwab, Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph A.
Schwab, his parents: Mrs. NJ. Z. knsey Of
Loretta, Pa, his mother-in-law, and his
sister, Miss Gertrude Schwab. His brother,
Joseph f. Schwab, who is president OF the
American Steel Foundries Company, met
the party down the bay. boarding the liner
at Quarantine. from the Governor Flower.
At the North German Lloyd pier there
were many people to meet Mr.. Schwab.
among them Or. and Mrs. f. NJ. Ward. the
latter a sister Of Mrs. Schwab. and Mr..
and Mrs. Alvah Dinkey, relatives OF Mr..
Schwab from Home stead. Pa. Some bust
meas friends Of Mr.. Schwab were also on
hand and they gave him a rousng greeting.
Mr.. Schwab's hand war almost shaken OH
by these friends. He was the most hauled
and mauled Of all Of the passengers on the
big Kronpinz.
But Of all tho greetings that Mr.. Schwab
got on his return home yesterday. the
most gratifying came as the Kronprinz.
steaming up TO her pier shortly before
@ o'clock was on the foot Of Rector street.
From her decks Mr.. and Mrs. Schwab
could SEQ the windows OF the Offices OF
the United States Steel Corporation, on tn :
twelfth floor Of the Empire Building at
Broadway and or street. These win
dows we're crowded with the clerks and
other employees Of the offices, who were
waving hats and umbrellas in the direc-
ton Of the big steamer which was bring
ing the president OF the company home.
Mr.. and Mrs Schwab waved back vigor-
ously, but, of course. we're hardly seen from
the building
II was some time after Mr.. Schwab landed
before the welcome OF his friends subsidized
enough to give hun a chance to talk. Asked
about business matters he declared that
he had nothing to say about them now.
REGARDING the oft-repeAted rumor that
he ia soon to resign the presidency OF the
United States Steel Corporation, he de-
clared that he really knew nothing about
such things and couldn't consent to talk
about them.
Il have had simply a delightful time.
said Mr.. Schwab, and got what l went
after, which was a time Of perfect rest.
NY health demanded that l should nave
rest when l went away last August. and
