any fnancier outside Of Morgan, Rookie
Teller. Hartman and few of the big
ones. On five characteristic occasions
he has been especially prominent, and
at least three Of these occasions were
connected with scandals and left trails
Of disaster behind them, political ex-
tinction for some of those concerned,
prison for others and suicide for one.
If Morse is the innocent martyr he
would have us believe he has been fol-
lowed by strange and sinister fate.
The Original Iceman.
The first of these happenings was the
formation Of the notorious New York
ice trust. Morse was the ice trust. He
gathered in practically all the ice COM
panies that did business in the metrop-
oils and when he had things just right
put up the price 100 per cent In order
to control the dock privileges which
were necessary to his monopoly he let
in some Of the big politicians of Tam
many Hall. John F. Carroll, the then
leader Of the Wigwam, was one and
Mayor Robert A. Van Wyck another.
The poor people were the ones to suf-
fer most. The campaign against the
unholy league of greed was taken up
by the press, and before it was over
the whole city was in an uproar. Van
Wyck could not appear in meeting
without being chilled by yells Of "Ice,
ice!' He was driven from public life
and Tammany was defeated at the
next election.
The second occurrence was the mys
ferrous DodgeM Morse divorce suit. Aft

This is his side of the case The
governments side is contained in the

thus the beginning of his term, if he
ever serves it, may be at least a year
distant. During this interval will he
again carry on his financial operations
While under bail? If So it will be
most unusual proceeding. But Morse
has been in the midst of unusual pro-
ceedings all his life.
A Financial Meteor.
The man now under fifteen wear
sentence in the federal penitentiary at
Atlanta has been called a meteor of
hnance-a red headed meteor, if such a
mixed figure Of speech can be ven
tured without danger of physical as
sault. The only particular in which
the meteor figure does not hold good
IS that meteors never bounce, while
Morse has bounced and probably
would go high once more if the officers
OF the law would only let him. He
certainly knows how to get money
other peoples money, perhaps, though
tnls IS not so unusual in Wall street as
troublesome laws in the way man
OF Morse's ability and audacity ought
to be able to become as rich as Rookie
teller. But it is hard to manipulate
Wall street from an Atlanta peniten-
tiary.
Mr.. Morse has also been called Ma
poleon Of finance, being the four hun
dred and seventy-sixth one Of the
breed that 1 distinctly remember.
Every man who squeezes the market
for two or three millions is called a
Napoleon. The little Corsican was a
pretty tough lot, taking him by and
large, but I do not believe he ever did
anything sufficiently discreditable to
have his name placed in such bad
company. 1t is all right to talk of
Captain Kidds Of finance, but why add
to poor Napoleon's disrepute by sad
ding him with their misdeeds? Yet
If Morse is a Napoleon he surely met
his Waterloo in the panic of 1907.
Morse has been in the limelight for

Cowles Dodge. Dodge, the divorced
husband, at one time had money, but
later was dining car conductor.
Some time after Mrs. Dodges marriage
to Morse society was electrified by a
statement from Dodge that he had
never been served with notice in the
divorce proceedings and that there
fore his wife's decree and subsequent
marriage were illegal. As Mrs. Dodge
Morse's lawyer was dead. there was
no way to disprove the charge. The
woman was heartbroken. had her mar
riage to Morse legally annulled and
fled to Europe. Dodge later admitted
that he was a perjurer and tried to
make his escape to Mexico. He was
apprehended in Texas and there was
furnished funds from some mysteri-
GUS source to fight extradition. Even
tually he was taken back to New York.
The next sensational development in
the notorious case was the news that
an uncle Of Morse had engineered the
affair without his nephew's knowledge.
The lawyer who had done the dirty
work was Abe Hummel, who was SEN
fenced to year on Blackwell's island
and disbarred. Morse remarked Mrs.
Dodge. and to her credit be it said
that she has stood by him with true
wifely fidelity through all his later
troubles

at the time that he had more vessels

bubble burst later, along with Morse's
other concerns.
Not satisfied with his spectacular adj
ventures in ice, matrimony and steam
ships, Morse's ambition sought another
