Joseph E. Schwab, younger brother -' of Charles M. Schwab and his arsoci- ate in business, died yesterday at the age of fifty-seven in the Collingwood Hotel, No, 45 West 35th Street, where he made his home. He had been tl ten months. Pr. James F. Nagle, No, 105 East 55th Street, his physician, said death was due to diabetes. The Itev. James White of St. John’s Roman Catholic Church, White Plains, was hurried to New York by automobile and arrived barely in time to administer the last sacrament of the church before the death of Ma. Schwab. Mrs. Esther Mulhall Schwab, who ran away with the then Superintend- ent of the Carnegie Steel Works in Homestead, Pa., in 1895, when she was a High School girl, survives with two children, Charles M. Schwab, twenty-four, and Miss Dorothy Schwab, enghteen. Mrs, Schwab made her home in Pittsburgh. Her husband has lived in New York for the last twenty years. Born in Loretto Pa, Joseph E, Schwab was educated in 8t. Francis College there and in 1883 entered the employment of the Edgar Thompson steel works alter his brother had be- come associated with that company. He advanced rapidly as a stee] maker and in 1887 was made Superintendent of the structual department of the | f Homestead works of the Carnegie company and {n 1894 became Manager of {ts Duquesne works. His runaway marriage in 1895 with the daughter of John Mulhall, wealthy steel maker and founder of the town! named after him, did not prove happy and in 1907 the couple definitely separated after previous periods of separation. When the United States Steel Cor- poration was formed and his brother became President, Joseph left the Carnegie Company to Join his brother in this city, as assistant. Two years later he was made President of the American Steel Foundries Company. That or- ganization, a few years later, got into trouble with the New York Stock ix- change over the listing of ite stock, and both of the Schwabs soon after severed thelr connection with it. About the Same time Joseph retired from ac- tive participation in the management of industrial properties, MRS. BURR M’INTOSH DENIES DIVORCE STORY Burr McIntosh, actor, lecturer, photog- rapher, has received a letter and two cable despatches frim his wife, denying that she had obtained a divorce in Paris. He has started an investigation to find out who is responsible for the story. Three weeks ago a letter purporting to have been signed by Mrs, Mcintosh was received by New York newspapers, arking that an inclosed article be printed. Tho clipping, from the Paris edition of a newspaper, aid she had obtained a divorce and told that her en- gegement to Rupert Huggins of London would be announced soon, It was news to Mr, McIntosh, but he thought the handwriting was that of his wife. He wrote to her about it, and replied that the story was talse, and try: ng to find out who sent it newspaper, ve she Paria THE EV a \Indianapolis Is Getting Ready | for Its Annual Automobile Race, Said to Be the Big- gest Sporting Event of the Kind in the Country.
