SCHWAB'S QUEER ACTION

a Year.
Pittsburg, April II The formation
of the United States steel corporation
ha given rise to various wild rumors
regarding the sine of the salaries to he
paid officials of the big concern. While
( harles M Schwab, president of the
combine, waa in New York a week or
r.o ago it was heralded throughout the
count rv that he was to he paid 11
OOn.mM a year for being the otlii ial
head of the steel trust. The announce
ment naturally created comment in all
quarters, a the salary was the largest
one ever tendered any man by a busi
ness concern.
1 he varn was but a twentieth cen
tury fable. The salary of the prcsi
dent of the 1'nited States steel corpora.
t ii hi is $100,000 Hr year. This informa
tion emanates from a former official of
the Carnegie Steel company now
identified with '.he Morgan steel com
bine. The statement is made that the
latter sum was the most that Mr.
Schwab was willing to accept as head
of tlie new concern. It is intimated
that more was offered, hut Mr. Schwab,
with all modesty, is said to have de
clared that no matter what a man's
ability mitrtit or miulit not be. Ii
should not accept a fabulous cnmiiensa
tion for his services just because it was
tendered him. He is reputed to have
remarked that it would he an extreme
Iv bad business stroke to accept $1,
000,000 a year, and that he could not
do so conscientiously.
