Van Norden Trust Company and the
Nineteenth and Twelfth Ward banks.
Mr.. Carnegie got SjO0,0O0 I'm real
money back when the end Of the Carne-
gle Trust Company came. At that time
the Madison Trust Company. which was
the old Van Norden Trust Company
was taken over by the Equitab BILE Trust
Company. and the Nineteenth and
Twelfth Ward banks were taken over
by j. =. Morgan g. Co. and the STOCK IN
the institutions held by Mr.. Carnegie
was taken up: but Mr.. Carnegie still
has due him on the notes OF the Cum-
Minis syndicate 81 100000. with the In
dependent Fertilizer Company stock ana
the stock of the Cummins syndicate
companies for his security.
The state Banking Department. mas
brought suit against Dyer for his note
Of $4,000 to the Carnegie Trust COM
pany, and the suit is nov pending III
the United States courts. This action
was not taken until after the trust com
cognizant Of the Dyer loan and the other
loans on the same security from the
time they were made. Samuel II. kress,
who owns. with his brother. a string
Of five and ten cent stores, has great
deal Of sympathy for Dyer and the posi-
tion In which he finds himself through
his friendship and trust in Reichmann,
and has said. according 10 an attorney
in the case, that he Is willing to pay
Overs note TO the Carnegie Trust Com
pany provided that he can be released In
a similar amount from bis obligation to
Mr. Carnegie.
Another Of the transactions In which
the Carnegie Trust Company is in
voved Is that Of the organization OF the
Carnegie Safe Deposit Company. which
has its offices and vaults in the base
uent Of the building of which the trust
company has the first floor and which
was an auxiliary Of the trust company.
This company was organized in 1907.
with an authorized capital stock Of
S20O.OW. The Carnegie Trust Company
subscribed for 40 per cent of the capi-
tai stock at $50 a share. and the re-
naming III per cent was taken in equal
parts by Charles NJ. Schwab and the
Dickinson family at the same price. The
stock thus brought S3OOOOO into the
treasury OF the company and a later
assessment Of SIS a share brought $50
900 more.
Following this subscription for the
stock and the assessment the safe de-
posit company borrowed S42O.00O from
the trust company, giving as security
for the loan a deed 10 the title of the
vaults and a mortgage on the rentals
OF boxes and vaults. The trust COM
pany was tnen interested I'm the safe

sufe deposit comrany the Carnegie Trust
+ Company, that had an investment OF
s6s5.Oo0. The trust company was left
with two OF the five directors Of the
safe deposit company, while members
/ Of the Dickinson family filled all the
offices IN the safe deposit company.
/ Another set OF transactions in high
/ finance which have come TO light only
with the publication Of the assets ~ the
Carnegie Trust COMPANY are the loans
to the Fidelity Funding Company and
! Patrick J. Keiran's associates.
Besides the original indebtedness Of
this company and It's promoter to the

rroximately 100000 worth OF notes In
/ dorsed by either Keiran or his Fidelity
company, which have been standing on
the books Of the trust company as assets
, since the early part of 1905 The last OF
these was due on November %, in that
! year. and since then the entire amount
OF 100000, as indorsed by Keiran and
the Fidelity. has been regularly listed
and passed upon as assets.
| Since the fall OF 1908, when the last
of these notes fell due. there have been
at least -four and possibly five exam
| nations of the Carneges books by the
/ State Banking Department, in none Of
which was any question as 10 the value
OF these notes and Endorsements raised
| Ecclesiastical institutions and personages
! from numerous towns and cities or the
middle West were the makers OF these
notes, and the only security listed with
them was the Endorsement Of either
Keiran or his Fideity Funding Com
rany. Among them are $4,000 worth OF
notes of the st. Vincents College. OF

Keiran's business connections with the
Carnegie Trust Company began under
the regime Of former president OF that
institution. and until within a short time
n. fore the utter crash Of kierans
schemes Keiran had TO difficulty IN
obtaining favors from the big trust COM

who had been appointed. His examina-
zion brought out little Of the real rela-
,ions between his trust company and
Keiran's project, and 1t was not until
after months of investigation that the'r
magnitude was discovered.
After a final furry hich for time
threatened seriously TO retard the pres
entatjon OF the case, the grand jury OF
the Criminal Branch Of the Supreme
Court began to hear evidence yesterday
afternoon in the cases growing out OF
the closing of the Carnegie Trust Com
pany. District 4,ttorney Whitman had
planned TO put the cases before the
grand jury. but when he reached his Of
New-York tribune., 1911-03-14

fees chortly after noon he found mes
sage from Judge O'Sulllvan' ASKING "''"
10 call at his chambers.
What happened in the conference oe-
tween these two officials is not known
definitely, but II Is known that the SUD-
ice, under discussion was the Carnegie
Trust Company case and the indictments
Itch are expected TO grow OUT OF its
closing. The District Attorney was IN
Judge O'Sullivan's chambers FOR ABOUT
an hour. and the one thing whicn was
overheard of their clg conversation was
th,~ r,a,cment from the District Attor-
ney:
81 issued those slbppnas SATURDAY.
They are issued for the Supreme Court
and ] cannot change them except by
consent of the presiding justice. You
can appreciate my position In the mat
ter"
Mr.. Whitman Keeps Silence.
Mr. Whitman refused to discuss the
matter. when he came out, and declined
|
that we're set afloat after the conference.
JudCc O'SullIvan, who came out re"
minutes later, was told that there was
story that there had been an eleventh
hour effort 10 have the Carnegie Trust
cases taken from the Supreme Court
grand jury, and put before the sraho
Jury Of General Sessions.
Then you know more about this than
I do" was Judge OSullivan's only COM
ment.
Whatever the subject OF the CONFER
ence. there was no apparent result so Tar
as the Carnegie Trust cases were con-
cerned. and a short time afterward the
District Attorney began to present tnem
to the grand jury.
Evidently the first transaction taken
I'D by the investigators was the loan OF
between 100000 and 100000 by the
Carnegie Trust Company. In April. 1910
The charge that will probably grow out
of this end Of the investigation. the DIS
trict Attorney hopes. will be one OF
grand larceny.
Bradley Martin, jr.. president OF the
Nineteenth Ward Bank; Robert L..
Smith, formerly vice-president OF the
Carnegie Trust Company, and Watkins
Crockett, formerly president OF the Van
Norden Trust Company, and now vice.
president Of the Madison Trust Com
pany, were the only witnesses examined
Yesterday. John V. COggey. former
Commissioner of Charities and direc-
tor In the Nineteenth Ward Bank, was
In the grand jury witness waiting room,
but was excused until further notice.
Charles NJ Schwab, who is now In
Bethlehem, Penn. will be subprnaed as
soon as he returns, as will Joseph b.
Reichmann, Of the Carnegie Trust Com
pany, who is now in Dayton, Ohio.
Among the assets listed under the
heading OF supplemental collateral' by
the State Banking Department stands a
personal guarantee from Mr.. Schwab for
all notes Of the Bethlehem Steel Corpora
ton. Officials Of the State Banking De-
partment, now in charge Of the Carnegie
Trust Company, professed utter igno-
rance Of any explanation for Mr.
Schwab's guarantee being listed as an
