and happy faces and I hope you will say
of mc: 'Well, Mr. Carnegie was right
about some things, after all.' And as
soon as you call mc I shall come back
that Is If my counsel consents."
Representative Gardner of Massachu
setts told Mr. Cnrucgle thai he had two
plans under consideration for the contioi
of the trusts. One he called the "Roose
velt plan," which contemplates strict reg
ulative measures, and t lie other is Presi
dent Tafl's plan for dissolution.
"I want your opinion. Mr. Carnegie," 1
said Gardner.
"J am inclined to agree with Colonel
Roosevelt." replied Mr. Carnegie. "1
think you should pass laws regulating
corporations. 1 do not think the Sherman
law is drastic enough."
"Do you believe, for instance, that the
dissolution of the steel corporation would
lessen the price of steel V" asked Gard
ner. 'T do not. It depends, of course, on the
courts," said Carnegie. "The bettor plan
is to have a responsible commission fix
maximum prices."
"Suppose manufacturers accept, the
maximum price and fall to reduce prlccn
when they can manufacture cheaper?"
asked Stanley.
"The commission, J suggest, would low

about a far better condition between capi
tal and labor," said Garncglc, rising In
his enthusiasm. "Judge Gary of the steel
corporation became convinced of this
after careful thought. lie Is a good man
and want.! to do business legally."
"Do you think." asked Hartlctt, "that
moral law should restrain men from or
ganizing monopolies?"
"If you allow monopoly without law
to restrain It. you deserve to be charged
high." answered Carnegie.
"The law against larceny came down
from Mount Slnal," commented Rarllotl.
"Yes, but it has been revised many
times." retorted Carnegie.
"You cannot organize new steel com
panies in this country," declared Car
negie, "because you cannot buy ores al
a reasonable price. Ores not now con
trolled arc inferior or in localities where
tho cost, of manufacture would be so
great as to prevent their use," said Mr.
Carnegie.
"The Klccl corporation snout millions
to make tho 1 1 1 1 1 ores In the Lake Su
perior region of use, and failed. It did
not give up Its lease until it found . It
would be too costly." explained Carnegie,
"There came a time. Mr. Carnegie, did
there not," asked Stanley, "when, with
35." If. Gary at the head of one concern,
John W. Gates heading another, and .1.
P. Morgan the godfather of all. you felt
it necessary to retire to escape destruc
tion?" "Oh, what nonsense!" said Carnegie,
indignantly. "Why, Morgan tried to buy
us out."
Made Carnegie Laugh .
"I understood it was the stale of your
health that Morgan urged," said Stanley.
Mr. Carnegie laughed.
"I could still take sustenance. They
approached nie when I had laid down a
law that I would not spend my old age
In making dollars. I have?slncc recog
nized that the labor of trying to dis
tribute money wisely is greater than that
of making it. I do not like lo be called
a philanthropist. 11 sounds like having
more money than brains."
"I believe If you had stayed in the steel
business you wquUl have done more for
your country than you have In the dis
tribution of your great wealth." sug
gested Stanley.
"That's hard on : man who has tried'
to distribute ills money wisely," com
plained Carnegie.
Mr. Stanley read a private letter from
Mr. Carnegie to his cousin nnd partner,
George Lauder, iu which Mr. Carnegie
said the Carnegie company could get the
business of the world.
"How did this private letter come into
your possession?" demanded Carnegie. "I
guess J believed it then. I was optimis
tic. All my ducks were awans."
"I want to ask you about your eight
hour day labor in llomealcad," said
Stanley.
"You must ask Charlie Schwab about
that." returned Carnegie, quickly.
"You remember Captain Bill Jones?"
asked Stanley.
"He was one of the best men on
earth "' said Carnegie, enthusiastically.
"I offered him a partnership. He would
not take It. I told him he could have
the salary . of a president of the United
Stales, and he got It and mote, lie was
not suave like Schwab. He was not
educated, -but he could manage men. 1
found Charlie Schwab, the son of h
llvory man, and J put hliu under Cap
tain Bill Jones."
"Would It be better now to employ
men eight hours a day Instead of
twelve?" asked Mr. Stanley.
"Schwab told mc recently,'' said Car
negie, "his furnace men preferred to
work twelve hours."

Chairman Stanley, producing an oH , jjj

by Mr, Carnegie many years ago i in' U
which th" Iron master snld:
"Stock gamblers arc parasites feeding fit

"Are you still of that opinion?" Stan- jr
