FINANCES NEAR DANGER POINT Control in Bad Hands Would Mean Ruin to Country. Financier Admits Money Is Much Concentrated and Thinks Mat ter Has Gone Far Enough. Washington, D. C. That the pres ent concentration of money and credit "has gone far enough," that "in bad harids it would have a bad effect upon the nation, that the safety of the situation lies in the per sonnel of the men in control and that present conditions are "not entirely comfortable for the country" were a few of the statements made by George F. Baker, master of finance, as the climax of two days examination before the house money trust committee. Mr. Baker declared that "bad hands could not retain control." These statements, coming at the end of a day of routine examination, dur ing which Mr. Baker reviewed in de tail the operations of himself, his bank, the First National Bank of New York and J. P. Morgan & Co., in the issuance of bonds, startled the com mittee and Mr. Baker's counsel. Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the committee, was wading through a mass of heavy statistics relating to bond issues handled by Mr. Baker's associates. Suddenly he paused, leaned forward in his chair and shot a question at the 73-year-old financier. "Mr. Baker, I suppose you do- not think there is a money trust?" de manded the lawyer. Committee, spectators and counsel sat forward in their chairs. The wit ness leaned back in his chair, smiled quietly and replied: "I do not think there is." "What do you understand by a mon ey trust?" Mr. Untermyer continued. "I give it up; I don't know," said Mr. Baker, with a chuckle. "Suppose we define a money trust as an established identity or commun ity of interests between a few leaders of finance which has been created and is held together through stock hold ings, interlocking directorates and other forms of domination over banks, trust companies, railroads, public serv ice and industial corporations and which has resulted in vast and grow ing concentration and control of money and credit in the hands of a compara tively few men. Taking that defini tion, is there any doubt of the fact that of late years there has been a vast and growing concentration of credit in the hands of a few men?" "Well, there is a great amount of money that has come together here, more or less concentrated," replied Mr. Baker after a pause. "There have been great mergers of financial institutions, have there not?" asked Untermyer. "Yes, sir." "I suppose you would see no harm," said Mr. Untermyer, "in having the control in credits as represented by the control of banks and trust com panies, further concentrated? Do you think that would be dangerous?" Mr. Baker pondered the question for a time, and then answered. "I think it has gone about far enough." The Baker lawyers, sitting near by, sat up in their chairs and looked in terested. Plow Concern Expands. Moline III. The Moline Plow com pany has announced that it has asked for an increase ' in its capital stock from $9,000,000 to $30,000,000 and for an extension of its charter for 99 years. At the same time a long-pending deal for the purchase of the Adriance, Piatt & Co. plant at Poughkeepsie, N. Y., was closed. The New York firm has been known as an "independent" manufacturer of farming machinery of various types. The Moline concern now possesses seven auxiliary plants. State Control Opposed. Lincoln, Neb! Governor Aldrich, Nebraska's retiring executive, in his message to the legislature, declared that state ownership of water-power development was as impracticable as public ownership of the railroads. The governor declared that "regula tion which insures good service at just and equitable rates" is preferable to state ownership, and anything more than this would be contrary to public policy and result in preventing the de velopment of capital. Snow Falls in California. Los Angeles More snow fell in the mountain ranges of Southern Califor nia. Forecasts of a heavy frost in the morning caused citrus growers who had not suffered a total loss in the re cent cold wave to resume smudging to save the remainder of their crops. As the temperature was fairly high it was not believed any great damage would be done. A sleet storm was re ported from Phoenix, Arizona, caus ing much suffering to stock. Hadley to Get Four Votes. Salt Lake City Utah's four elec toral votes for vice president will be cast for governor Hadfey, of Missouri. This was the agreement reached by the electors. Mrs. Margaret Jane Wichter, one of the Republican elec tors, the daughter of a law partner of President Lincoln, probably will be chosen to carry the result of the vote to Washington. BANK MAKES 18,550 PER CENT New York Financier Tells Commit tee Strange Things. Washington, D. C Profits of more than $90,000,000 have been made by the First National bank of New York City since its organization with a cap ital ot $5UU,000 m 1863, according to the testimony of George F. Baker, chairman of the board of directors of the bank, before the house money trust committee. Mr. Baker told the committee the bank had paid dividends of 226 per cent, or more than twice the total cap italization, which is now $10,000,000, in the four years since 1908. Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the committee, calculated from the sums supplied by Mr. Baker that Bince the latter assumed the presidency of the institution in 1873 the bank has paid dividends of 18.550 per cent on its original capitalization. Mr. Baker flatly opposed the sug gestion of Mr. Untermyer that Na tional banks be required to make pub lic their assets, declaring that he saw no possible good that could come of such a provision. mat, mere is no impropriety in one man's holding directorships in one or more potentially competing banks, railroads or industrial corporations was another stand taken by Mr. Bak er. Mr. Untermyer reviewed a list of railroads in which Mr. Baker was a director, some of which the lawyer said were potentially competing lines, Mr. Baker declared that for these roads to have a common director was an advantage, "because differences be tween the companies thus can be read ily adjusted. Mr. Baker admitted that he and Mr, Morgan and Mr. Stillman consulted frequently about large financial oper ations and that he and Mr. Morgan were interested in many vast financial enterprises. He could not say how many. LIFE BOATS MUCH DEPLETED Rosecrans' Rescue Causes Loss of All Power-Driven Craft. Astoria The wrecking of the two power life-saving boats, Dreadnaught and the boat at Fort Canby, leaves the mouth of the Columbia river with out power-driven life-saving craft and boats entering the Columbia river are without protection should another storm take place. River and sea-going men are greatly worked up over the fact. The lack of proper life-saving' boats was brought very painfully home to the people Thursday when the steamer Westerner lost her deck cargo while attempting to cross the bar. At the Point Adams life-saving sta tion and at Fort Canby station they have boats, but they are old and must be manned with oars. The captains do not hesitate to say that in such a storm as the one just passed through these boats could not live and would be little short of useless. LIMIT PUT ON "MIDDLEMAN. Government Officials Regard Vic tory as Important One. Washington, D. C. The govern ment's victory at New York recently against the so-called lumber trust is regarded by officials of the depart ment of justice as one of the most im portant accomplishments under the Sherman anti-trust law, because it limits in large measure the power and privileges of the much-discussed middleman in commerce, The de cision is construed here as meaning that the consumer of lumber, untram- meled by the retailer, may purchase direct from the wholesaler or manu facturer, and the latter may sell direct to the public without interference of a combination of retailers. Estate Valued at $9,300,000. San Francisco Claus Spreckles, millionaire sugar refiner, left real property amounting to $5,700,000 and personal property in excess of $3,600,- 000, of which he devised half to his widow and half to C. Augustus Spreck els and Rudolph Spreckels, younger sons; John D. and Adolph were cut out, the will declaring that they had been in a measure provided for prior to their father's death. A contest was immediately filed and three days after the widow died the court handed down a decision breaking the will. Banker and Wife Jailed. Chicago William T. Kirby, owner of the defunct Kirby Savings bank, and his wife, Mrs. Margaret L. Kirby, were ordered sent to jail on a con tempt charge by United States District Judge Landis until they turn over $30,000 said to be missing from the assets of the bank. The decision came at the end of a scathing denun ciation of the participants in what Judge Landis termed a "fraud and a frame-up par excellence in perjury." Motor Company Ordered to Sell. New York The receivers of the United States Motors company were ordered by Federal Judge Hough to accept the bid of $7,080,000 entered by representatives of the company's reorganization committee at the fore closure sale of the property.
