SCHWAB'S PLUNGE IN SOCIETY
DID MORE HARM THAN GOOD
Steel Magnate Made
the Showof a Nabob
Old New Yorkers Stood Aghast
to See His Display.
It BOmo of Mr. Rnliwnh'a rplntwla
nnd business osHodatos aro to tio licllcv-
ed, then ho Is to do no more than
to tnlso a vacation that may last until
frost comes, and Is to bo spent for tho
most part at somo of tho health resorts
of Kuiopo, says "Holland" In his Now
York letter to the Philadelphia Press.
From otheis como Intimations that his
business career Is Interrupted, certain
ly for an indefinite period, nnd It may
bo for good. In addition to these there
nro those who Intimate that Mr.
Schwab's retirement may be duo, as his
recent collapse was probnbly.due, totho
nervous strain caused by n knowlcdgo
of friction nnd a lack of support on tho
part of a considerable element among
CHAS. M. SCHWAB,
the stockholdersxof the- sjtccl corpora
tion. There is. no-. doubt that a minority
that was by no. means small did not
look with favor upon the proposition
recently chocked by tho Vice Chancel
lor of New Jersey, involving tho ex
ehango of preferred stock for bonds
.iiiid tho payment of a largo sum of
money to an underwriting syndicate for
linanclng that plan. Tho objection
was not outspoken. It did not develop
at tho meetings of tho corporation. It
manifested Itself chiefly by orders
given to the brokers by those who were
dlssatlslled to sell their stock.
Aside from this dllterenco1 of opinion
It Is not known that any disagreement
on tho part of tho stockholders as to
the directing of the corporation has
prevailed, at least of Importance
enough to occasion the president nnd
tho directors any embarrassment. And
yet probably no man upon whom great
business responsibility 1ms been placed
nnd to whom great opportunities have
come has been more closely wtitched,
both in his business and also In his
personal life, than has been tho caso
of Mr. Schwab. It would not be ex
actly correct to say that ho has been
spied upon. Thero were no antagon
Isms, no great Jealouslea that made It
worth whllo closely to scrutinize Mr.
Schwab so as to discover If thero were
something in his personal or business
llfo that might bo used to his disad
vantage. .
But ho came to N.ew York with a
reputation unmatched in many respects
by that brought to this city by any
other who had gained wealth and au
thority In the industrial and commer
cial world. It was something Hko the
reputation, both personal and business
which James R. Keeno brought to Now
York from California 25 years ago.
ICeene's reputation was that of a mas
ter speculative strategist; that of a man
who had possessed the foresight, or
the Industry that makes foresight
possible, that enabled him to see tho
collapso of the big bonanza properties
and to taCo advantage of the Impend
ing bursting of that bubble, Mr.
Kcene brought albo to New York cer
tain eccentricities of personal life. They
wero harmless enough, but they were
of tho character that justified jesting,
Possibly had Mr. Schwab taken
counsel from the experience of Mr.
Koeno ho might have been spared this
early collapse. He Is just about the
ago that Mr. Keono was when he came
so perilously near paralysis, of the
brain or complete nervous overthrow.
New York did not know Mr. Schwab
excepting vaguely as somo distant In
dividuality that reflected tho great
vigor und Intellect of Androw Camo
gle, With thq organization of tho
United States stoel trust and the ejec
ton of Mr. Schwab to He presidency,
Ifflili 0
HIS WIFE AND HOME.
thero came a sudden nnd dazzling rev
elation of the abilities and personality
of this young man. No one needed to
say of him that In the iron nnd steel
trade, at least that part of it in whlcb
tho Carneglo Interests had been con
bplclous, ho was a past master, an, ac
knowledged expert, a brilliant, Indus
trious, and intuitive business genius.
Naturally, all the romance and fasci
nation that are associated with the
llfo of one who from the humblest of
bcglunnlngj 'by his own abilities and
grasping of opportunities gains
wealth and Influence Intensified the in
terest In Mr. .Schwab.
It Is probable that tho financiers of
the higher order were wondering
whether he had possessed not only tho
technical knowledge and experience
that enabled him to serve as president
of 'tho Cnriingle corporation, but
Whether he wero also gifted with that
broad, comprehenslvo business states
manship so 'to speak that would enable
him as successfully to direct a corpor
ation that was both Notional and in
ternational In Its scope and purpose as
he had directed the, comparatively
speaking, smaller corporations Identi
fied by Mr. Carnegie's name. Thero
had not been at tho tlmo of Mr.
Schwab's collapse, nn entirely satisfac
tory answer to the financiers who had, I
half curiously, half anxiously, been
nsklng ono another tho question. In
other words, Mr. Schwab had not been
fully tested, and when this Is said it l.i
not meant that his career had been un
satisfactory In its broader relations to
our commercial nnd industrial and fl-'
nancial life, but to say that It was not
unsatisfactory Is by no means to admit
that Mr. Schwnb had as yet been rank
ed with tho high order of business
strttebmanshlp of which Mr. Morgan,
Mr. Stillman, Mr. Rockefeller nnd Mr.
Hill are such conspicuous examples.
Ordinarily it would be an Improprie
ty, if not an Impertinence, to make
public report of tho private llfo of any
of those who aro prominent in indus
trial or financial affairs, or any othpr,
in fact. But when certain features of
tho private llfo of a, business man who
has becomo conspicuous and Influential
seem to afford opportunity for obtain'
lng judgment as to tho staying quali
ties, tho moral fiber, tho solf-restrnlnt
and equlpolso of one upon whom many
responsibilities rest and whose mis.
takes might bo followed by business
calamity, then he cannot bo privileged,
nt least as to that part of his prlvnte
4lfo wh'lch does not escape tho observa
tion of the public.
Therefore, It was not only natural,
but in one sense justifiable, that there
should have been considerable com
ment nt the manner of life which Mr.
Schwab at once began to leaTJ when
he came to New York, Men of great
wealth and of wide experience nnd of
lnnr resident in Now York not com-
plainlngly, , but suggeHtlvcly.spoke of
those luxurious apartments at the most
garlh and .sensational of our hotels
where Mr. Schwab had Installedhlmself
and his family. His private service,
his elaborate entertainment, his recep
tion there, while he was at his late
breakfast, qf men plunging into the
thick of affairs nnj)jVho had been up
nn Rtlrrhic several hours before Mr.
Schwab was awake. His apparently
ostentatious and sensational purchase
of a block upon Riverside drlvc.contem
platlng tho erection thereon of the most
showy of New York's city homes, nnd
various peculiarities of this character
inevitably led to the suspicion that Mr.
Schwab was not entirely content with
the brilliant reputation, with the mag
nificent authority and influence, with
the'dnzzllng position as the head of tho
world's greatest corporation, which
were already in his posesslqn, bpt that
ho sought for what, to many of our
citizens, Is a cheaper, less worthy, less
satisfactory sense of power, that which
comes from ostentation.
It began to be fcald of him that he
was like a nabob, that uauuet migiu
have drawn his character of "The
Mnbob," had he waited until this time
before writing that book, from somo
tenures of Mr. Schwab's,, life after he
came to Now York. It was not untre
quently said of him that his story and
that of tlio Count of Monte Crista diff
ered only in this, that one was real and
the other was romance.
"While there was no diminution of the
respect or of the acknowledgment of
those remarkable powers that brought
Mr. Schwab from poverty to one of tho
proud positions In tho business world,
nevertheless, among experienced men
here thero was wonder whether In this
llfo that was apart from his business
career thero was not to bo discovered
tho Achilles heel.
Tlio wonder Is whether Mr. Schwab,s
collapse, may not In part be traceable
to the very Impulses which led him, if
not to seek, at least to adopt a manner.
of llfo In private that brougut nun to a
consplcuousness In its way quite as
great as that which he had obtained
ns a business man. Certainly, with
tho veterans of experience, bath In the
business and social life of New York,
thero would have been a firmer faith if
Mr Schwab's maintenance of the high
position which the swift organization
of the steel trust mado It possible for
him to tako had thero been another
manner of life at least for several
years after ho camo to Now Yoik.
Thjs view was strengthened by tho
sensational experiences through which
Mr. Schwab passed during his brief
vacation of last winter in Europe.
