Career Hegan in Maine. The rise of Charles Wyman Morse from A boy Who liked to peddis things to the position he had In the market place of stocks and bonds, the sudden flight of his fortune and the subsequent battle in the courts to keep himselt at liberty and pay his debts, as well as build a second for- tune, have made his career as Interesting as any that Wall street can remember, and Wall street is a place where quick for- tunes have almost become commonplace and legal difficulties are not at all un- usual, Strange as Morse’s career the financial district, it was even more unusual in the courts. Never before had they known of a man who had gone down to disaster, with a fortune like his gone and $7,000,000 of debts besides, pleading for a chance to pay his obligations and then while the judges were debating his case actually succeeding in wiping out at least $5.000000 of his indebtedness and appar- ently starting up again toward the helghts of financial power and influence which he hdd held before. On the very day on which the court decreed that he mpst pay th penaity for his violation of the banking laws and serve the sentence which he had received after a jury had found him guilty Morse was elected president of onc of tha bik steamship lines of the Atlantic coast “It Is & good deal harder to build up a second fortune than a first, but I'm going! to do it," Morse sald just after being ve- leased on bail when his appeal was pend- Ing. Apparently he was making good this boast when his hopes were dashed by the court's last decree. Up in Bath, Me, they had a way of calling him ‘“Silent Charlie.” While other people were talking Morse seemed to be figuring on how he could get a dollar out of the other fellow. His father, Captaln Ben Morse, had be- &un by owning tugboats and had branched out into the ice business. He was sharp at money getting, too, so Morse came by it naturally, only the father knew nothing of the game which the son tried later in New York's financial center. The tugboat captain and ice dealer sent his son to Bowdoin college and then Morse showed how strong the money mania had been bred in him. He will- ing and anxious to keep the books for his father's towboat company at a salary of $25 a week while he was a student, even though the college was nine miles awey from the bookkeeping job. Bath is 30 full of stories of Charles W Morse that it Is hard to sift them all. One of the storles they tell is of one of the di- rectors in the towboat company kicking at the idea of the books belng kept by a col- lege student. “If you keep on you'll be a’millionaire before you die” said this director after Morse had shown him that he could do It all right. Morse as the Ice K “Oh, T won't stop there.” Morse is said to have then replied. or nothing. “When he was graduated from Bowdoin in the class of 1577 he looked about for a way of starting up toward mark and turned toward the business of his father and his father's netghbors—ice. He was going to become the ice kin They had been doing business in ice up that way back—cutting ice on the Penobscot selling It in friendly competition. idea was to cut ice, but much, so that would be a chance to get high prices for it First he leased « small pond and then a bay in the Penobscot.

That | was when he began gobbling up one ice company after another, merging them into the American Ice company, then New York found that if It wanted ice it had to buy it of Charles W. Morse at his price or go without it. The field before this had been covered by & score of smaller companies and a host of independent ice dealers. There were two ice fields supplying New: York—the Hudgon and the Penobscot, 10 the docks here from both flelds and sold freely to dealers who peddled it in competition with the companies that COMING AMOTHER Thousands of women have found e TR i uch bein and & cl ent i only dacs Mother's Friend s chi but it the system for the coming event, relieves “‘morning sickness,”’ and other dis- fort, B4 43eEh 0 8 where Morse was born, | etting | “T'Nl have $10,000,000 the $10,000,000 along the same lines for years Morse's not to cut too when summer came there Morse | the metropolis. | these years apparently he Tce was brought down ' pain and insures safety to life of mother and carry women safely thro = MOT] 'FRIEND also brouglt trouble tor Mr Morse's | friends | Morse's lee mmany, had a few of great prosperity, during which it dividends of 6 per cent on its V\Hftl\wl‘ stock and 4 per cent on its common, and | | its creator was halled by friends and foes | !alike as perhaps the most successful of New York's new financlers.

Between his two coups In American Ice Mr. Morse had penetrated into apother | field with even greater success, That was the banking fleld. His exploits in this field are still fresh in the minds of a good many | members of the banking community and form a chapter almost unparalleled in New York's banking history. With that wonderful shrewdness which he seemed to have inherited Mr. Morse had quickly seen that banks were essential |to the accumulation of a quick fortune and to the promotion of concerns such as | his fce companies. It had been hard to get banks, for instance, to lend as much money as he wished on some of the secur- itle had promoted. To obviate this difficulty he began organizing a chain of banks. ith fus: Tammany Mr helped out by Ameriean company, ye paid he the he the Covernm bank.

Morepver he | went down to his old home at Bath and took about every bank in sight there. An Investigation made in 1907 after the | panic lald bare the way Mr. Morse had | | succeeded i adding banks to his wonder- | ful chain. It was simple.

This profits in his | control very of banks which could glve him valuable assistance in further promotions, Mr. Morse put into execution his most ambitious plan of all. | That was to become the master of the American merchant marine. The shipping business had been bred in him down there in Bath along with the ice businegs. Financlers fell in with his latest plar and its executlon seemed easy | In 1801 he bought the People’s Line on the Hudson, simply meeting the owner of a majority of the stock one .day, In- quiring his price and buying it the next He went down to Boston and bought all the lines that ran north from there. Next he bought the Metropolitan Line and ordered the Yale and Harvard, the two turbines, at a cost of §1,000,000 apiece Before long he had bought all the other Hudson river lines and had begun going down the Atlantic coast. He bought the Clyde and the Mallory lines as easily as If they had been bags of peanuts. All the time the banks which he con- trolled were being asked to lend vast sums of money on the securities he was buying and In most cases he succeeded In getting the loans. It was the same plan he had used in buying the banks, using the first securitizs as the basis for a chain. chaln Collapse of Morse. But there were rumblings just about this time that conveyed the impression to some wise ones that there was something the matter with the Morse machine. Its joints were creaking, banks were groaning under the weight of huge loans made by Morse, the Heinges and the Thomases, his associ- | ates, and the Consolidated Steamship ¢ pany did not seem to take as well as some of the other enterprises.

The trouble spread to the banks later after the Heinzes' brokers began to fail. What happened then Wall street still remembers. The ice king's fortune began to tremble and to totter. Finally it fell in fragments. “You have busted the bank,” said A. H. Curtls, Morse's head of the Bank of North America, to Morse himself one day In Oc- tober, when Morse could not make good on a loan of $00,00 and the clearing house wanted to know about things.

Bottles made of goat-skins are still in use in many parts of the world, bottles of eartn- enware are used still® more widely, but bottles of glass measure the content of our civilization. Including jars and other wide- mouthed glass containers, the total out- put of the glass bottle factories of the United States amounts to 1,600,000,000 bot-~ tles a year—nearly twenty bottles for each man, woman and child in the republic. Bot- ties are used in scores of W They contain man's fruit preserves and jellies, his mineral waters and his beers, his whis- fies and his wines, his medicines and his liniments. They are indespensable. The earliest form of the use of glass was in bottle-making. The monuments of Egypt preserve plclures of glass blowers work in the days before the pyramids we bullt. And it is a remarkable fact that there was little progress in the art of bottle-making from that early day un- til a few years ago when an machine revolutionized the business. It is a far ery from the anclent glass blower to the modern bottle-making machine turns out perfected bottles at ihe rate of a minute. The finished bpttle made by machine is better than the one blown by hand. The bottle-users prefer it to the hand-blown, declaring It to be more uni- form in its thickness, stronger, and more exact in its contents. The bottle-making born of necessity. A French glass manufacturer was barassed by labor troubles In way or another untll at last he shut down his plant. Then he set to work trying to devise a machine that would take the place L men In blowing bottles. It was not many months before machines were iIn stalled, and his work started again. This was the fore mer of the American ma. chine that is so nearly human that it can do its work better than men, and can make bottles for forty cents a hundred, which cost seventy cents under the hand method The making of bottles was long believed 10 be the one branch of glass making that hand laborers could depend upon as be- ing free from machine competition. The introduction of the bottle-making machin- ery exploded that theory, and when the manufacturer recites the advantages of the machine-made bottle ov: the hand- made, and adds that the number of boitles broken among hand-made ones was thirty per thousand, as compared with three per thousand, machine-made, he ciinches his has said that civilization ingenious machine was argument against the other method. / One of the boons of the new method is the fact that pulmonary diseases, which were very frequent among bottle-blowers, have been almost entirely overcome by the new method. Passing the blowing tube from lip to lip spread contaglon, and the high death rate among glass blowers was attributed more to this than any other one cause. In the machines compressed alr dogs the work that was hitherto re- quired of human lungs, and the sick and death rates have both fallen off since the Introduction of the machines. More than twenty-five factories are now turning out machine-made bottles. The exploitation of bottle-making chinery Is an apt fllustration of how one new mechanical device may ald another. A complete hottle-making machind weighs about sixteen tons. the drum- mer cannot put one of them in a suit case and lug it around. So he has enlisted the ald of the moving picture machine, and a string of films showing the whole proces from the assembling and setting up of the machine to the completion of the fin ished bottles. With this film in his grip be is able to &0 to any town in the country where there fs a moving plcture apparatus and demonstrate the wonders of glass blow- ing by machinery There are a great many styles of botties new, fashions being brought out each year Lafl year fifty-seven styles were placed on the market. To the bottle manu- facturer there are only a few great classes of bottles, and his nomenclature s as fol- lows: Prescriptions and vials, beers and minerals, patent and proprietary, lquids and flasks, fruit jars and sundries. By tho records of the bottle makers it Is shown that the patent medicine output in the United States amounts to nearly 3%0,00), 000 bottles a vear, while the lquid scriptions filled by the pharmacists e twice as many.
