Il don't believe there is any truth

Neeley Of Kansas, the only member Of
the committee now in Washington.
THE committee was engaged in a
most important public duty. and some
Of the disclosures Of the financial
methods pursued by Mr.. Morgan and
his friends were decidedly startling to
the country. This doubtless resulted
In much public criticism, and the end

other witnesses.
Il remember when counsel had mis-
placed some data that he desired to use
in interrogating the banker, and sug-
gested recess for few moments
stating that Mr. Morgan might desire a
few minutes relaxation. Mr. Morgan
smilingly answered that he was feeling
very fine and preferred to continue the
examination. At the conclusion of the
examination, Morgan came up to the
rostrum on which the committee was
seated. shook hands with each mem
ber, and rather profusely thanked US
for the courtesy We had shown him.
At the same time he assured us II had
been a pleasure to offer his testimony.

was urged to rest longer, and told that
his health would not permit of any

an almost uneoualed number of activi-
ties. ranging from money making to
money giving. from art to railroads,
from society to interest in the elimina-
ton OF bad conditions among the poor
and needy.
Born on April II, 1887, graduated from
the English High School at Boston In

His life was marked with intense ac-
tivity Scarcely a phase of living but
felt the touch of his master hand. His
business experience was connected with
many events reckoned among the most
important in the business world.
The first entrance of j. p. Morgan
into business life for himself came when
he started the firm of Dabney. Morgan
& Co. His first Dig raliroad deai was
contaminated in February. 1870. when he
arranged the lease of the Albany and
Susouehanna railroad to the Delaware
and Hudson. Morgan first began his
