Before tnat time he was tegirded BS a very dangerous mn to'the crcsperity of tha c-mn'ry. Hta doctrine was briefly described BS one f unscrupulous greed. He had baan concerned in tro ( Black Friday utf r , which was declared by a con gres-ioml investigation committee to be the grossest and moat corrupt cui spiracy to uneittlo values and ruii hundreds of people which bad ever been conceived and executed in this country. He. had made Auierioin se- cuiiiicS a ctcn'oh in the iiostnh cf English inventors by his course iii the Eriu.
