Carnegie Company Was Bought at
$ 2 for $1—Competition Elim
inated By Combine.
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery
Washington, D. C.— John W. Gates
told the house "steel trust” investiga
ting committee Saturday the history
o f the United States Steel corpora
tion. Present at its birth, he de
scribed how it was the natural out
come of what he described as the re
fusal of Andrew Carnegie to be bound
by the "gentlemen’s agreements”
that marked the early days of open
competition in the steel business.
He also told o f millions lost and
created almost in a breath; how the
Carnegie mills, appraised at $1(50,-
000,000, were reorganized as worth
$020,000,000 almost within the time
required to make the transfer to the
corporation; of the clash in the form
ative days when John D. Rockefeller
was dissuaded from joining in the cre
ation o f the trust.
Relating how Carnegie had been
forced to abandon plans for extending
his steel business, Mr. Gates frankly
admitted the combination was formed
to throttle competition,
and that,
when John D. Rockefeller had sought
to enter the steel business, a deal was
put through which forced him to sell
out for 40 cents on the dollar.
Characterizing Mr. Carnegie as a
“ bull in a china shop,”
Mr. Gates
told of a midnight conference between
himself, Charles M. Schwab and J. P.
Morgan, at which the Steel Corpora
tion was conceived, and said that it
resulted in Carnegie’s getting $320,-
000,000 in the corporation’s securities
for his interests, which he had offered
for sale for $160,000,000 cash.
The taking over o f the Tennessee
Coal & Iron company during the panic
of 1907, he said, was confidential deal,
put through by Mr. Morgan, and was
forced on him.
Plans made by Mr. Carnegie in 1899
and 1900 to circle his steel interests
with a railroad of his own and to com
pete with the National Tube company,
organized by Mr. Morgan, by the erec
tion of a tube works at Ashtabula, O.,
were factors that led to the birth of
the steel combine.
