take the stand Tuesday when the trial

ORGANIZATION OF u. S. STEEL
THE CLIMAX OF HIS CAREER

The organization of the United States
Steel corporation marked the climax Of
Mr.. Morean's career That was not only
his biggest piece Of work but was equally
remarkable for the swiftncss with which
il was executed. From IT he won both
fame and ccnsurc. The idea was hrst
conceived at dinner given at the Uni
versity club by j. Edward Simmons,
president of the Fourth National Bank
Charles NJ. Schwab spoke on the steel
and iron industry. Mr. Morgan, though
al that time dominant in the Federal Steel
Company. had never before met MT
Schwab. The lattcr's address, however.

conceived the idea of the future 'biilon

of s200Ooo.Oo0: the American steel ana
Wire Company, capitalized AT No,W"'

A capital of s590Oc.0co For the work oil
organizing this great company II was
estimated that tho promoters received as
commission more than $Iy0,o0 in cash
value of the common and preferred stock
OF the new concern.
Then followed the collapse when divi-
dends on the common stock were passed.
and that security day after day sought
new low levels. In 1904 the name OF
Morgan was cursed from one end OF the
world 10 the other II was a proud day
