The illness that struck Patrick H.
McCarren OF Brooklyn came as a great
surprise. as only his closest friends
knew that the famous politician was
down with appendicitis. and the news
caused Il great stir among politicians
in Greater New York
The man who so long has been the

in East Cambridge. Mass. in 1919 ana
early in life removed to the City of
Churches. Here. a poor boy. he was
obliged to work and learned the trade

Timbers From the British Ship We'll

In the residence which l. n. Phelps
Stokes is building at Greenwich. Conn.
the timbers of the Wellington, once a
British battleship, will find final re-
pose.
The timbers will be used as rafterS
in the great dining room and as sup
ports of the new house. which Mr.
Stokes is having constructed at an es-
tilnated cost of 100000.
The Wellington has many historic
associations. but Mr.. Stokes when he
bought the timbers was indulging no
antiquarian tendencies. His idea was
to get good, strong wood. The wood
is teak, which has great durability.
There are firms in England which
make speciality of breaking up old
vessels to procure this wood.

HAWLEY, COLLECTOR

Hailed as Harriman's Successor
In That Respect.

Edwin Hawley, railroad man. in reply
to a question. 81 have no ambition ex.

good waiter, mighty coed waiter.
and things come when you wait long
enough"
Work has indeed been the means OF
gaining for Mr. Hawley the position in
the railroad world which will make
him soon the successor of the late Ed
ward II. Harriman-that is, if he
does not already hold that position
Mr.. Hawley has practically acquired
chain of railroads from sea to sea
against the determined opposition of
rivals. He has worked silently for
years gathering in transportation prop
critics which others referee. to as sec

Agement turned into dividend earners.
He has worked so unostentatiously
and has said so little to any one that

and has thought of him only to smile.

member him. Hartman bumped into
one Of Hawleys plans once and found
Hawley Immediately behind it. Wall
street gossips say that no one ever en-
cOuntered Hartman antagonistically
without coming out somewhat Scared
up financially until Edwin Hawley
came along. There We're plenty of evil
dences in the later years of Harriman's
life to prove that he had no desire to
fight Hawley.
All of which leads to Wall street. If
there is anything this district admires
it is success. The more man sue
ceeds there the more he is looked up
to and praised and petted as the
great Mr.. So-andso.' While Edwin
Hawley was buying up second class
railroads" he received precious little
attention, as was indicated awhile ago.
but once the country began to hear of
this and that line and link here and
another there and the possibility of a
tranScontinental system Wall street
got down ON it's metaphorcal knees
and beloved its high regard. When
Mr.. Hawey sold the Colorado and
Southern-something Of railroad, by
the way. with about 1000 miles Of
track-to James j. Hill for whopping
big price and at once bought the Ches-
apeake and Ohio. 1910 miles in length
and representing something like $115,-
100000. all without using a megaphone.
Wall street almost had paralysis, This.
the wise financiers admitted was some
railroading.
Beginning of Hawley.
To get into the breach that grew up
between the two men Iawley and
Hartman one has to go back to Haw
ley's beginning. because it leads log
ically to the ultimate conclusion. He
was born in Chatham, n. Y, about
fifty-nine years ago. He was only
youngster. possibly eighteen or nine
teen years old, when he entered the
commission business, about which
Wall street likes to tell. No riches
appearing in that line. he went to
New York and got into little tugboat
business. Here. again, the money was
slow in coming, so slow that IIawley
became clerk in the general offices of
the Erie railway
After awhile he went to the Ohio
and Mississippi. About the time of
THIS service he became acquainted in

Coils L. Huntington. author and own
err of the Southern Pacific railroad.
Mr.. Huntington put him in charge of
the New York Office, which then had
much to do with a large number of
railroads and steamship lines. Haw-
ley's success with these properties
was striking. It attracted attention to
his executive and organizing ability.
