Nobody to blame but myself
Financial circles in Philadelphia are
at loss to explain how Segal got the
influence over Nipple, hard headed
business man, which he came TO exer-
else. Nipple was noted for his con-
servatism as a fnancier. Segal. SO far
as he was known at all, was chiefly
noted for his nerve and the visionary
character Of his projects. Twenty
years ago he toiled with bare arms over
a soap caldron in dark cellar in a
tenement district. He had just come
from Austria, spoke English with an
accent and looked the typical immi-
grant. He invented new process for
waxing paper and out of 1t made $50,
600. He embarked in business in q
small way, but soon got up a ware
house scheme for which he had no trou-
bic in borrowing 100000. Then he built
a sugar refinery and sold it to the sug-
ar trust, making q cool million out Of
the deal. He tried starting a match
factory, but this did not sell.
One of his most noted enterprises
was the Majestic hotel in Philadelphia.
which he fitted up on a scale Of un-
paralleled luxury. He married and
his wife was conspicuous at the opera
for her jewels and gowns and in the
parks she always drove with liveried
servants in faultless attire.
