They were interested only, they ex- plained, in removal of Col. Stewart, whom Mr. Rockefeller has regarded ,as “morally unfit” to continue direc- |tion of the business. The Stewart defeat had been free- S| ly predicted, but the size of it was a surprise. When the vote was count- ed, the result was: Smiles at Defeat Shares voted for John D. Rocke- feller, Jr., 5,510.313. Shares voted for Col. Stewart, 2.- 6. Thus was Col. Stewart's 11 years scrvice as executive head of the corporation ended. Gol. Stewart himself presided, and when the re- sult was announced—a defeat more sweeping than even his adversaries had dreamed—he smiled. | The tellers had completed their count, Col.
