OF J. Pierpont Morgan, fnancier, and
OF his achievements al. the world

widely feared, yet more generally
trusted. Those men who met him
only in business way saw a man
rough, emphatic and repellant, mac
cessible as the emperor OF Russia
when he chose to be, known as the
worst man in the world to interview,
and as a man who believed absolutely
in himself and apparently never ques-
toned the correctness OF his method.
His friends, however. knew him as
simple, unaffected companion, an in
teresting conversationaIist with keen
wit and genial humor.
Once a woman asked him why he
kept on accommodating money when he
already had more than he needed.
'T do not love money" Mr.. Morgan
is said to have replied. But do en-
joy the excitement. the fun OF making
it."

MANY RATE CASES
ARE CONFIRMED
Through An Innovation the Interstate
Commerce Commission Settles Over
Four Hundred Cases.
BY a ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington. March 31.-An innoya-
ton in the procedure of the Inter
state Commerce Commission, adopted
at the suggestion of Commissioners
Clements, resulted today in the con-
ffrmation of the adjustment of more
than four hundred changes in trans
continental rates on commodities. The
advances proposed by the railroads a
few months ago were suspended. Con-
ferences resulted in an agreement upon
some advances and the abandonment
of others. The commissions decision
today disposes of items left in dispute
by permitting some advances and can
ceiling others. 1t also fixes a general
policy for the transcontinental car
riers with respect to their coast-to-
coast rates.

ed, scolded and tried to discipline Tu-
mIIlty, but the latter serenely chose
his own paths. The result was that
he was re- elected three times. 1t was
Tumultys progreSsiveness combined
with his loyalty to party that attracted
Mr. Wilson's attention while he was
still president of Princeton.
An Immediate Success.
As the presidents private secretary
Tumulty was an instantaneous and
complete success. Before the admins
tration was "a hours old newspaper
men were calling him Joe, and by the
end of the second week no previous
secretary except Loeb had his popu-
larity. This friendship with the re-
porters is proving to be great asset
for Mr.. Wilson. 1t has resulted in a
great flow of pleasant publicity for the
administration out of Washington
Tumplty doesn't believe in hiding the
presidents light under a bushel and
since Tumulty established the open
door that light has been made to
shine every minute of the working
day.
1t was predicted by those who had
observed previous administrations that
the open door would be abandoned
after a very short trial. 1t was said
to be physically impossible for the pri-
Vate secretary to see every one calling
at the White House and still find time
to take care of the vo.uminous CORE
spondence. But these prognosticators
didn't know Tunnulty. He is the speed
marvel of Washington. The only pre-
vious secretary who approached him in
swiftness in handling visitors was
Loeb, but Tun1ulty is faster than Loeb
was. Tumulty will talk to ten visitors
where HilleS saw one, and what is
more he sends each one away warmed
by his tact and geniality. Tumulty
doesn't wait to have callers ushered
into his office one by one. When the
benches outside are filled, TumuIty
SkipS to the door and gees to the Wis
itors, stepping from one to another as
he finishes with each.
The new secretary is barely medium
height and thick set, but not fat His
hair is almost colorless, and rather
thin. His complexion is as clear as
that of a healthy girl, bespeaking
clean life. And his blue eyes are rare
~ without a twinkle. He is an incor-
rigfbIe story teller, a bubbing spring
of anecdotes with point, and he con-
tinually ennbellishes his conversation
with them. 1t is said that whenever
the president feels the need Of relaxa-
ton he takes Tumulty to lunch with
him, knowing that his secretary will
not talk more than three minutes with
out relating some amusing story. The
cal or fictitious doings of the Jersey
City folks are already famous in Wash
ington, and no doubt viii. soon be
spread over the country in the maya
zines. Tumulty also has the habit
during lulls in the conversation of ut
tering side-splitting comments in a
hushed. chastened tone of voice
l.
quality which makes Tumulty very
human and Hkeable is his love for his
family. He is but 33 years old but
he has six children scaling in age from
nine years to four months. The chill
dren are Mary, aged 8; Joseph, Jr., z;

STARTED BUSINESS CAREER
HALF A CENTURY AGO

John Pierpont Morgan started his
business career half a century ago on
the board of directors of a large mari
time insurance company. He secured
the position through the influence Of
his wealthy father. For a year young
Morgan attended the directors meet
ings, but never opened his mouth ex-
cept to vote.
The president of the company told
the elder Morgan that nothing could
be done with his son, who seemed to
take little interest in business. Young
Morgan, however, was all the time
laying his plans for his railroad con-
soiidation which, when accomplished,
established his standing in Wall street
as the only man who ever got the bet
ter of Jay Gould.
The president Of the insurance COM
pany had mistaken taciturnity for in
dolence. The sobriQuet of Sphinx Of
Wall street" later was applied to the
man who at first was believed to have
been without business acumen, but
later became the supreme head of the
the finances Of the American continent.
Morsan's control over men and
money was the dominant keynote Of
his life.
Others, perhaps, were Weather than
Morgan, bat he now commanded his
wealth and that Of others.
At the height of his power. he is
said to have controlled SO. 00O, 900, 900.
In addition to finance, art, literature,
philanthropy and sport all came under
his influence. His prestige was not
confined to his own country-i<ings and
ernperors and even the pope were wont
to call him into consultation.
Mr.. Morgan came from an old New
England family which dates back in
this country to 1885. He was born in
wealth and his father, Junius Spencer
Morgan, left him $10,00o,000. J. s.
Morgan had accumulated his fortune
in the dry goods business with Levi
P. Morton and later as an assistant OF

Phillip, four months. Tun1ulty never
tires of telling about these children.
The thing surest TO rufsle his usual
good nature is something which will

ing.
Wilson'S Right Hand.
T'uHnu1ty is President Wilson's right
hand. In any political matter 1t Is
believed that the president will play
Tumulty's Judgment farther than he
will any other mans. That Judgment
has already stood the acid test; Il vir-
tually nominated Wilson at Baltimore.
When Bryan was sounding out the
candidates on their stand on the cleo
ton Of the temporary chairman, Gov.
Wilson in his Scottish caution WIS for
answering evaSively. TIInnity advised
a bod stand behind Bryan, ami this
course was adopted by the governor.
In return Bryan later threw his SUP
port to Wilson and the latter was NOM
mated.
With Wilson working out his legis-
1ative program in the inner once, and
Tumulty attending to the politics and
publicity in the anteroom, there is
formed a White House team that is
not likely to make many mistakes.
Political predictions are precarfous,
but if the first few weeks can give any
indication President Wilson viii have
in a year or so a popularity that will
be reminiscent of the old Roosevelt
days.

BY Robert r. Wilson.

BY Robert 2. Wilson.
Washington, March 29.3Twas or
Marcsh fourth and not the seventeenth
as would have been more proper, that
the democrats of the country put into
the White House rare broth of a boy
named Joseph Patrick Tunlulty to be
private secretary to President Wilson
and Joseph Patrick is not of Scandi-
rsvian origin.
But without attempting further to
suggest in type the delightful brogue
that is one of Tunulty's best assets,
let it be said at the outset that of all
the personalities which the new adj
ministration has brought to the head
of governmental affairs, excepting only
the presidents, Tumulty's is the one
most discussed in Washington and
most admired. And if the new presi-
dents first weeks in office have brought
him much praise, at least half the
credit must go to the hustling, capable,
efficient, smooth working, shrewd, po-
litically wise and exceedingly likeable
little Irishman who is his private Sec
Rotary.
The practical politicians have been
a bit dubious about Mr.. Wilson's ability
to conduct a. successful administration
from the standpoint of practical poll
tics. He was regarded as the closest
philosopher of democracy, a man who
had worked out his political theories
in the quiet libraries OF Princeton, far
from the disagreeable but highly prac-
tical work of getting out the vote on
election day. Let him alone. was the
prediction, and he will make enough
mistakes to hang himself politically in
six months.
President SURPRISES Them.
The living refutation of this slur
upon the presidents sagacity is Tu-
rr1ulty. One might Ia re expected the
president of Princeton to have selected
for a private secretary some dim eyed
professor or a banner student from the
economics department at best. Instead,
he hunted around and found Tumulty,
a rare combination of man who had
fought his way upward through the
hcisterous ward politics of Jersey City
and one possessed with a unique gift
OF executive ability.
Tumulty was educated in the Cath
Ole senninaries and colleges about Jer-
Sey City, but even before being adj
mitted to the bar he had taken to
politics like a duck to water. He en-
listed in the democratic marching
clubs, served his turn as worker,
watcher and election officer at the
pOi1S, LOOK d lASL III any OF the 1SnIlnS
that happened in his vicinity, and
played the game of machine politics as
it is conducted in greater New York.
He began to make speeches, and his
success in this line attracted the at
tentfon of the late Boss Bob" Davis,
who sent him to the legislature at
Trenton.
Once in the state assembly TumuIty
refused to take the orders of the boss,
Tun1ulty became an ardent progressive
in legislation, but white he worked
with republicans or democrats alike in
the legislature Tumu.ty provokingly
refused to leave or be read out of his
party organization. Davis expostulat-
