Many Other Prominent
Capitalists in Concern,
EMPLOY UNDERWOOD MEN
Interested Deny thai
Typewriter Business Of
World is to be Combined
But Rumof is Persistent

Rumors have zen heard for some
time tha a group of American capt
%talists, with Thomas f. Ryan at their
head, were forming a large company
to acquire all the largest typewriter
interests in the country and to obtain
control Of the business all over the
world.
1t was stated that among the heavi-
est stockholders were Mr.. Ryan and
his sol Allan A. Ryan, the Guggen-
helms, Charles M. Schwab, Harry
Payne Whitney. John B.. Mcdonald
and others. whose combined holdings
were sufficient to effect an absolute
monopoly of the typewriter business.
While it could not be established
officially yesterday that the plans or
these capitalists contemplate the I'M
mediate acquisition of the largest Con-
Germs, such as the Remington and
Smith-Premier, it was learned that
very recently they formed It large
company, of which Allan A.. Ryan,
Thomas f.. Ryan's son, is president,
and in which the elder Ryan and the
-Guggenheins are large stockholders.
1t was learned that the Royal Type
writer company is the nucleus of the
big enterprise and that Il plant, said
to be the largest of its kind in the
world, is now being erected in Hart
ford, Conn. Several Of the chief men
of the Underwood Typewriter com
pany have been employed by the Ryan
concern and two of them have been
made directors of the new company.
Remington Interests Deny II.
Positive denial was made yesterday
by an official of the Remington com
pany that he had any knowledge of
the new combination or that the Rem
ington had anything to do with it.
Under its recent organization the
Royal Typewriter company is com
posed of the following officers
President. Allan a. Ryan; Vice Presi-
dent, +. B. Hess, inventor of the Royal
Machine; Secretary. /. v. McGlone;
Treasurer, Leon w. Mccall. son of
John A. Mccall former president of
the New York Life Insurance com
pany.
The directors are Allan A. Ryan,
Leon w. Mccall. l. V. McGlone. E. b..
Hess, \. }. Manning, j. + Ncaher and
Philip r. Dodge, of the M~crgenthaler
Linotype company.
Mr.. Manning was formerly in
charge of the manufacturing end of
the Underwood company and Mr.. Nea-
her had charge of the company's sales
Mr.. Manning is now
of the manufacturing branch of
the new company and Mr.. Neaher has
been given control OF the selling bust
ness here and abroad.
In this country the Royal type
writer is not widely known and it was
that no effort has been made
to place il ontthe market. The pres
offices of the company are in the
Telegraph building at Broad
and Murray street and the factory
at Forty-siXth street and Second ave
