New York, April 19-The House of Morgan has it's roots deep in international finance. The first big opportunity of Junius, the founder, came to him as partner in firm engaged in foreign exchange and international security business.
 He proved his pre-eminence in that field when, even as the Prus- sians thundered at the gates of Paris and the Emperor Napoleon III was a captive, Junius bought an issue of bonds from the refugee French provisional government at 80 and immediately "loated" them at S5. It was big profit, but it was a big risk, and Morgan, when those bonds rose shortly to par, was regarded as a great fnancier by his customers and in fact by all Europe.
 This European connection was pont Morgan, his son, on the road upward Up to that time he had been just smart, efficient banker, inclined to speculate, but trader, never a mixer in industrial affairs. RAMPANT RAILROADS
 The railroad era was just flow ering. Tentacles of trackage were wiggling westward. It was an era of loose financial morals and reck- less bucaneering with money. In the scramble to produce railroads, the American investor paid for those railroads three times over, but at least we got the railroads. If the Morgan operation in rail- roads into which he now launched leave something to be desired, they were at least better than those of some of the men he fought. Gould, Fisk, Vanderbilt, Sage, Huntington. Drew, were names connected with manipulation of railroad stocks rather than the developing and running the roads.
 It was with Jay Gould and Jim Fisk that Morgan, at 22, first tang led in a rough-and-tumble battle for control of the Albany & Sus- quehanna, which the former pair wanted as an adjunct to Erie. Court battles in crooked Tammany courts being indecisive, the principals re- sorted to actual physical battle

GOLD SAVED U. S. CREDIT

 Speculation Era

day of being utterly drained of gold, and formation of the first billion-dollar corporation U. S. Steel.
 The treasury incident showed masterful Morgan at his best. At the beginning of 1895 panic condi- tions were leading to steady with dawal of gold for shipment abroad. By the end of January, the gov ernment's gold reserve had failed to 40 millions. far below the "safe- ty point" The end of the gold standard, the crash of government credit seemed inevitable. Congress backed and filled, hesitated, re- mained impotent. Silverite blocked every move to put cash in the trea- ury.
 Morgan jumped on a train for Washington, uninvited, risking an open rebuf from President Cleve- land, who disliked him. He was met at the station by a message from the White House that Cleve- land would not see him. Replied Morgan: q am going to the Airing ton hotel. I shall wait there until the president is ready to see me-"
 In the hotel room Morgan sat, playing solitaire, breeding. Cleve- land relied on congress until the last minute. It did nothing. At breakfast one morning Morgan re- ccvieved word that the president would see him. Striding across Lafayette square to the White House, Morgan found the presi- dent in conference with anxious government officials. Reports ticked from New York revealing the con- tinuing drain of gold. At last a yell low slip was passed to Treasury Secretary Carlisle. It told him that just nine millions of gold remained to the United States. And there was one check outstanding for 12 millions!
 q WILL so GUARANTEE!" Then, and only then. did the president turn to Morgan. Morgan was, ready. A solution had come to him over his game of solitaire in the hotel room. He towering the government to buy gold coin with its bonds or notes. It opened the way out.
 SlcNSldHu dBi ecu, Wilh tAC otAp ulation that Morgan procure half the gold from abroad, and guar ante that the gold the treasury received for it's bonds would not imm ediately be withdrawn for for eign account and shipped abroad. / Morgan did not hesitate. "Mr President" ihe said simply, 1T will so guarantee"
 The conference broke up. Mor- gan headed syndicate which raised $65,000,000 in gold for the government, taking its bonds for | $62,0OO,000 in exchange. Afterward, questioned by con- gressional committee. Morgan was asked why he was unwilling that other firms should secure for the United States this badly-needed foreign gold.
 Morgan answered, again quite simply, "They could not do it."
