Charles Gilbert: Gates was born on May 21, 1876, in Turner Junction, now ‘West Chicago, 1. He did not wait long to begin to mold his business career, for when only seventeen old he entered the Consolidated Steel and ‘Wire company in Chicago as a bill clerk in one of the departments. He remained in that capacity for onmly two years, when he was made secre- tary to President William Edenborn, in which position he learned the de- tails of management of the company | thoroughly. "When only twenty-one years of age | Mr. Gates became junior member of the stock and grain brokerage firm of Baldwin, Gurney & Co., of Chicago, which was dissolved in 1899, and Gates went abroad. When he re- land and Northwestern railroad, hav- ing won this position through the in- fluence of his father. From that time on young Gates rose gradually in the business world, fol- lowing clogely in the footsteps of his father. His father was at all times his adviser and the younger Gates benefited materially thereby. He held in mpld succession offices with the Omaha and St. Louis railroad, the Omaha, Kansas City and Eastern rail- road and the Kansas City and North- ern connecting lines. When less than thirty years of age he was recognized ! <8 a power in railroad. as well as “Ha HI:.MI.DJI DAILY PlONE.BB | Huerta is said to be “wart.” lflnanclal circles, of tha Middle West. In 1901 Mr. Gates went to New York ‘and ‘entered the fields of financial ac- tivity made famous by his father. He paid $51,000 for a seat on the New York Stock Exchange and started the firm of Charles G. Gates & Co. For geven years he played a prominent role on the exchange, and his firm was soon considered as one of the greatest ‘producers of buslness in Wall street, The marriage of Gates to Miss Flor- ence Hopwood, dauvghter.of F. P. Hop- wood of Minneapolis, on Sept. 28, 1911, was a brilliant social affair. They were married at the home of Miss Hopwood’s brother in' Uniontown, Pa. Many Minneapolis people went to Uniontown in a spet‘lal car for the affair. The eccentricity and free spending proclivities of Gates gave him the dis- tinction of being the most generous man in thé world. Waiters through- out the United States and Europe knew him as the man who always gave the biggest tips. Explosion on” Battleship.
