Man Who SPOILED
GATES COUP DEAD

Chicago Sept 15.-The death last
night of Col. Isaac L. Elwood, pio-
neer manufacturer of barbed wire, at
his home in Dekalb, has revived an in
teresting story of how he and John w
Gates quarreled over the organization
of the United States steel corporation
JUST before the terms of the United
States Steel corporation were an
nounced ]. p. Morgan sent for Gates
and told him he must find place on
the executive committee of the Ameri-
can Steel and Wire Co. for p. A. B.
Widener of the Metropolitan syndicate,
whose influence and wealth Mr., Nor
gan needed at the time.
Picked EIwood to Retire.
Gates is said to have dissented
strongly from making any changes,
but Morgan was obdurate and the Chi
cago steel man was forced to yield.
He decided that his friend Isaac Ell
wood, would be the most likely man
he could ask to retire, and he sent
a telegram asking him to send in his
resignation as a personal favor to him.
Colonel Elwood, however, took offense
at the telegram. Instead of replying
he took the next train for New York,
and arrived Sunday evening at the
Waldorf Astoria hotel, the headquar-
ters of the Gates crowd. The two
men had stormy interview. Colonel
Elwood made discoveries that aroused
his suspicious that the Gates clique
was preparing to unload He handed
in Ibis resignation and prepared a
countermine.
Colonel Elwood discovered that the
plan was to give out a false schedule
of the percentages at which the securi-
ties of the various steel companies
would be taken into the steel cor
poration. The plan was to put much
higher percentage on the securities OF
the American Steel & Wire Co. as
compared with the Moore and other
companies, than had been granted ac-
tually by the Moore syndicate, and
then en- the boom which undoubtedly
would follow the publication.
Made Gates Buy His Stock.
Colonel Elwood hunted up his brok-
ers and arranged a campaign. The
false schedule was printed and its pub
lication caused a bull movement in
the steel stocks on the following morn
ing.
The Gates brokers began bidding up
the stock at the opening with view to
send prices upward, and unloading on
the way UP. Colonel EIwood had ar
ranged with his brokers to dispose of
his entire holdings in the opening mar
ket on the bull movement started by
the Gates crowd.
The Gates brokers were forced to
buy in order to sustain the prices. The
fight continued until the close OF the
day. by which time Colonel EIwood
had sold his entire holdings to Gates
at a price far above their intrinsic
value. The day was said to have cost
Gates nearly q half million dollars.

HOW FAR CAN THE POLICE COR
Attorney General Simpson Files An
Opinion.

Attorney General Simpson of Min
nesota holds that a house cannot be
forcibly entered by a marshal without
a warrant, unless he has been in pur-
suit of an offender or sees for himself
the violation of law. Mr.. Simpson
says further:
"a marshal or constable cannot
break and enter dwelling house for
the purpose of arreSting a person for
violation of an ordinance or the
commission of misdemeanor, nor for
the purpose Of securing evidence of
such offenses, where there is no dis
turbance of the peace and no felony is
committed. other buildings than
dwelling houses MAJ be broken into
in order to make necessary arrests,
but the officer so doing should have
reasonable cause to believe that the
offender is within such building"
The opinion was asked for by part
les in Goodhue county, where there
have been instances of forcible entry
to buildings by police and constables,
who are alleged to have been acting
as law unto themselves and without
any warrant of law whatever.
