from n position in life really humble
reads almost like fairy story. Born
on n farm in West Overton, Allegheny
county, December 10, 1S40 seventy
wears ago. of parents in moderate cir
cumstances, he was virtually adopted at
nm enrly age by his maternal grand
father, Abraham Overholt. who was a
rich landowner.
His schooling was meager. After a
few years in common school, Chester
Military Academy and Otterbein Uni
versity, he became at the. age of six
teen. a clerk, and little later a book
keeper in his grandfather's distillery.
Just come of age he appeared in
Pittsburgh one day as the agent of a
firm of coke dealers and his activity and
intelligence pushed him to the fore very
rapidly. A year or two later he Joined
a company to build the Mount Pleasant
and Broad Ford Railrond, n coke line.
1t was opened in 1871 and laid the basis
of the Frick fortune.
Saw Millions i'm Coke
That same year Mr.. Frick organized
the corporation of Frick & Co.. coke
dealers, which bought 300 acres of soft
coal lands and fifty one coke ovens in
the Connellsville region and year Later
added 100 ovens to its equipment.
In the panic of 1873 coke fell t,
ninety cents ton. Everybody wanted
to sell out. But Frick saw the posi-
bilities of the industry. He persuaded
| Judge Thomas Mellon. the Pittsburgh
banker, to lend him $4,000, and wit
this he bought out his partners. Thi
was the beginning of his alliance wit
the MELONS. 1t is said Mr.. Mellon sen

Coke rose after the panic to 50 ton.
Mr.. Frick was nearly millionaire be-
fore he was thirty years old
The business grew until 10 was or
ganized in 1882 as the II. G. Frick Coal
Go. with $2,000,00 capital, holding
5000 acres of coal beds and 1926 ovens
His Alliance with Carnegie
Now came the alliance with Andrew
Carnegie, the ironmaster. Mr.. Frick ex
changed a half interest in the coke COM
nany for an interest in the Carnegie
steel business. Both businesses made
rapid progress. In 1889 Mr.. Carnegie
made Frick chairman of Carnegie
Bros. & CO., Ltd. reorganization
of Carnegie Bros. He did this in order
that Mr.. Frick might lead Carnegie S
fight with his employees, some of whom
were making wages as high as $t5 a
day, due to changes in steelmaking
conditions.
The result was the great Homestead
strike. But before this Mr.. Frick hat
strengthened the Carnegie company by
completing the monopoly Of the Pitts.

Carnegie Steel Co, It'd, Then Mr..
Carnegie went TO the seclusion of Scot
land and the big fight was on.
The workers seized and fortified the
Homestead steel plant. They deported
the sheriff and his deputies. Mr.. Frick
imported 800 armed private detectives,
who were defeated and disarmed by the
strikers in q pitched battle, with a cas-
ualty list of ten killed and sixty wound
ed. State troops then quieted the dis
trict.
On July %. 1892, Alexander Berk
man, an anarchist, shot Mr.. Frick sew %
eral times in his private Office and also
stabbed him. In thirteen days Mr.
Frick was actively at work, and
throughout these thirteen days from his
sick bed he had directed the campaign
against the strikers every day.
Mr.. Frick now took a large part in
| the remarkable growth of the Carnegie
