PACE 2
1HE CITIZEN, FIUDAY, JULY 21, 1011.
1 GATES,
SPOUT All
Once Had the Nerve Even to
Buck J, P. Morgan.
JOHN W. GATES, one of the most
picturesque figures In Ameri
can finance, was born on an Il
linois farm lu 1S5D. He bad
but a brief term of schooling and early
embarked In the hardware business,
starting a small hardware store at
Turner Junction, 111. He himself has
told something of bis career from this
time on.
Here It is, ns told by himself to a
little group of friends who gathered
about him at a round table In tho red
room of the Waldorf-Astoria one even
ing just before ho sailed for Europe
several years ago.
"First I started traveling for Isaac
L. Elwood. I erected the first corral
iu the state of Texas, hiring men to
help me put It up to show tho rangers
what use could be made of barbed
wire. I had not traveled very long
when I came to the conclusion that
there was more money In the manufac
ture of barbed wire than lu selling It
at a salary of S100 per month. I had
a frlond in St. Louis I was living in
Chicago at the time named Alfred
Clifford. Clifford and I started In to
manufacture barbed wire In a very
small way. I think wo had three barb
ed wire machines. Our total invest
ment was less than $8,000 to start
with. The business proved very profit
able, nnd wo shortly increased, not in
the same factory, but in an independ
ent factory. We started an incorporat
ed concern under the name of J. W.
Gates & Co., into which eight of us
put each $2,G00, making a total of 520,
000. All these men arc stillallve. We
declared dividends of about CO per
cent per week. Our profits for the
first year were 5100,000. At the end
of the year I suggested that I either
buy out or sell out."
Tho evolution of that plant was the
American Steel and Wire Company of
New JerseVf with a capital stock of
500,000,000, and the American Steel
nnd Wire Company of Illinois, with a
capital of 524,000,000, with Gates ns
chairman of both. Gates sold out his
Interests to J. P. Morgan & Co. when
the United States Steel corporation
was formed, drawing down many mil
lions in cash, bonds and stock.
Only Beut, Not Broke. .
Gates was hurt badly in tho North
ern Pacific raid In tho spring of 1001.
It was estimated that ho dropped $5,
000,000' at that time, and, whllo he ad
mitted that ho had been "bent," he
was not broke. Early tho nest year
be "butted" Into Louisville and Nash
Tille nnd, with his powerful Chicago
following, twisted the control from the
August Belmont people, who had for
years been the dominating factors In
the management of the railroad. Gates
is said to have bought one-half the en
tire issue of stock at from 08 to 110,
and then the stock jumped to 130,
when a truce was declared through
tho influence of J. Pierpont Morgan,
then in Europe.
After tho organization of the steel
trust Mr. Gates continued in the Iron
nd steel business for himself. One of
uls latest appearances In the limelight
was as a witness in tho steel trust In
vestigation in Washington when ho
convulsed the nation by his descrip
tion of Andrew Carnegie, and bis, re
marks on the trust's absorption of tha
Tennessee Coal and Iron company
There has probably never been a
financier in America about whom so
many good stories were told as John
W. Gates. A good story teller him
self, bis sallies were alike popular In
Wall street, nt the race track, before
the faro tables or wherever good sports
and spenders most did congregate. Ilia
popular name in those days was "Bet
You a Million" Gates.
For tho last few years Mr. Gates
rather settled down and lived in Tex
as, or at least his homo was there,
although Gates lived pretty much all
over tho earth, especially In New York
and Europe.
Flipped Coin For 40,000.
Major Charles O. Birmingham of
Galveston once admitted that he was
a great friend nnd admirer of Mr.
Gates and gave some of his reasons.
In the smoking compurtment of a train
on his way to Asbury Park ho regaled
n group of men with a story about
Mr. Gates.
"Mr. Gates is surely a dead game
sport," he said, "and I have been much
amused to learn that some of his Tex
as friends .vont to run him for con
gress. If ho runs in that district ho
will be elected hands down. Tho oth
er day ho paid a short business visit
tu a Texas town and endeared him
self to the hearts of tho local popu
lace.
"Some of the gamesters of tho town
heard in odvanco that Mr. Gates was
coming and prepared to furnish' a lit
tle entertainment and excitement
They raised a poker pot of $40,000.
"All right, boys," said Mr. Gates,
1 really haven't tho timo to play
poker tor that roll of money, but I'll
tell you what I'll do. I'll match you
for it'
"Thero was. a hasty consultation, and
tho delegation agreed to tho proposal.
Mr. Gates pulled out n half dollar and
slapped it down on the tablo saying-,
I'm matching you.'
"One of the members of the delega
tion fishad out a Quarter and covered

A Few Characteristic Stories
ot His Career.
it on tho tablo with bis palm. Gates
lifted his hand. Ho had heads up.
Tho Texan lifted his hand and dis
played tails up.
"Gates just grinned, took out a
check book and wrote his chock for
S40.000 to tho leader of tho party.
Then ho bought all around."
In the old, old days Gates used to
play faro at Saratoga, or at least so go
the veracious tales of those glad
some times. His wagers wero always
largo, nnd nts he played to give the
house ns little percentage as possible
It is said that ho succeeded in holding
his own fairly well. One via,- a noisy,
bustling stranger made his way to one
of tho faro tables In Saratoga and
bought five stacks of checks at 5100 a
stack. Ho placed his bets on tho lay
out nnd expressed the desire to get
quick action. Tho dealer showed an
Inclination to wait upon the conven
ience of a quiet gentleman who fre
quently consulted a "tab" and bet four
blue checks on various cards.
This delay went on for some time,
to the undoubted annoyance of the
Btranger. Ho made audible remarks
about a "piker" who would hold the
JOHN W.
game when other men desired to win
or lose their money. Finally ho pushed
a stack of his checks over to tho gen
tleman with the "tab," saying: "Here!
Play those, and don't bo so much
nfrald of losing your money."
Betting $2,000 on a Card.
The late James Canficld, the proprie
tor of the gambling house, who was
standing by nnd who saw tho incident,
tapped the stranger on tho shoulder
and asked him to step aside with btm.
After getting out of bearing of tho
other players ho said: "My friend. If
fou cannot carry yourself as a gentle
man X should prefer that you play
elsewhere. For your own information
I will toll you that tho gentleman
whom you Just Insulted is J. W. Gates,
president of tho Illinois Steel com
pany. The checks that he is playing,
four on a card, are worth $500 each.
So you will seo that your 'piker' is bet
ting Just twenty times as much ns you
are."
"Some women," said Mr. Gates,
"not all women, but somo of them, nro
very poor speculators, very poor gam
blers. "A young friend of mine has a pretty
cousin. He was going to tho races
the other day, and she called him up
on the telophono and asked him to put
(ilO on Forest King for her.
"'Very well,' he said. 'I'll do it if
you'll pay me back.'
"Of course I'll pay you back, you
horrid thing!' exclaimed his cousin.
"'All right,' said he. 'You didn't
last timo.'
"'Oh, well,' said she, 'last time the
borso didn't win, you know.' "
Hero is another typical Gates story:
"I once knew a conductor whoso run
was out of Chicago for 200 miles east
ward. Ho was noted for tho regal
fianner in which when off duty ho
spent dollars "where other railroad men
modestly laid out dimes.
"One day I caught his train at a
Bmall station and, sitting in a coach,
watched him pass through, collecting
tickets and cash fares, tho latter being
most frequent Thinking I would hunt
aim up and have a talk, I went to tho
next car a little later.
"Ho &t In one end, throwing silver
DAD
1
end gold pieces up in the r.lr. r-atrhimj
them nKiln as they fell.
" 'What on earth are yi,u djincV 1
asked with luterest.
"Ho tossed nnd dexterous!; euurai a
five dollar gold piece before he an
swered. " 'All that stick on the bell cord bo
long to the Lake Shore,' ho answered,
'and the rest ore mine!' "
"Exclamatory Eheumatism."
While the oil excitement was at its
height In Texas several years ago Mr.
Gates put up nt a hotel In Beaumont,
where colored girls wero employed as
waitresses.
At tho dinner tablo, on tho evening
of his arrival, wishing to be pleasant
to the girl who had taken great pains
to see that ho had everything he want
ed, ho turned to her nnd said, not
knowing whether she was married or
not, "How is your husband, Eliza?"
"Ho ain't much bottan, Bah," replied
tho girl.
"Oh, then he's been sick. What's tho
matter with him?" asked Mr. Gates.
"Why, do doctah say ho got exclam
atory rheumatism, sah."
"Exclamatory rheumatism 7 You
mean Inflammatory rheumatism, don't
you? Exclamatory means to cry out,"
said Mr. Gates. ,
"Dat's Jes' it sah. Dat's jes It He
do nuthin' but cry out all do time."
Whllo Mr. Gates was down in Plor.
Jda n few years ago he met a great
many people, and it seemed ns though"
every native had a military title, such
as "major," "captain" or "colonel."
One morning Mr. Gates said to a
southern gentleman, "Say, Mr. Hill
son, that gentleman you Introduced
me to last evening looked pretty young
for a colonel, don't you think?" "Who
Colonel Leonard? Yes. ho Is kind of
GATES.
young." "Was ho in tho civil war?"
Inquired Mr. Gates. "No, I don't think
so." "In the Spanish war?" "No."
"Well, how does ho get the title of
colonel, then?" "Oh, he's a colonel by
marriage. You see, ho married Colonel
Andrews' widow, so he's a colonel him
self now, major."
Mrs. Gates told this one:
"I was bo ashamed of my husband
once In London," said Mrs. Gates.
"Among the ordinary tourist stunts
which we did on our last trip abroad
was a visit to Mme. Tussaud's wax
works. One of our friends nsked ns
how wo liked it, and my husband re
plied, 'Well, It impressed me as very
much Hko any English party.' "
Mr. Gates onco told this tale about a
friend of his who went into tho Alps
In an effort to escape from "nil the
modern improvements" of life:
"My friend began tho ascent to the
hospice of St. Bernard," said Mr.
Gates. "When about an hour's climb
from tho pass ho was stopped by a
dense fog. Ho waited gleefully, ex
pecting to be rescued by tho dogs nnd
bo bo able to come back to us with a
thrilling story. Tho dogs did not come,
however, and tho fog partly lifted. So
he resumed his climb and finally ar
rived nt tho hospice, where he was
welcomed warmly by tho brothers.
His first question was:
" "Why did you not send tho dogs out
In so dangerous a fog?'
"He nearly dropped from his chair
when ono of the brothers said:
" You did not telephone us
" 'Telephone you? ho ejaculated.
" 'Yes,' "was the answer. 'Yon bco,
(bolters hnvo been built all along tho
climb, and each shelter has been pro
vided with a telephone. If a fog comes
up all ono has to do is to go to tho
nearest shelter and telephone. Wo Im
mediately send. a man and dog to that
shelter, Tho dog carries bread, cheeso
and wine. As wo know at just what
shelter tho climber 1b, no timo is lost
In looking for him.' "
Mr. Gates said his friend was so dis
gusted with having his romantic no
tions knocked in the head that ho left
Switzerland at onco.
