MORGAN QUTO RAILROADS
Banker Resigns from Directorates
of Many Corporations.
ASSOCIATES DO LIKEWISE
Steii In Due to Appnrcnt Clinnuc In
I'uhllc Sentiment nnd Crltl
clam of Interlocking Directorates.
(Continued from Pago One.)
York to separate the Morgun houise from
some of its larger directorate, and, as
expressed by one familiar with their af
fairs, to get in line with the wlsttcs of
the people nnd the spirit of the times as
het forth by the president.
This Information was highly gratifying
'to cabinet officers, but In the absence
of President Wilson from Washington It
was not known (Whether the prospective
movement had been mado known to him.
It' is viewed as primarily Important in
being tho first practical step on a co
lossal scale to adopt tho spirit of tho
movement against so-called Interlocking
directorates, and also as affecting a num
ber ot properties In which government ac
tion for dissolution Is pending.
J. P Morgan & Co.'s participation in
the controt of many corporations and
tho presence of members of tho firm on
the boards of directors of many indus
trial concerns and powerful financial in
htltutlons In New York and elsewhere
was one of the principal points of attack
by the so-called money trust Investiga
tion of tho sixty-second congress.
Censure In fiijo Ileport.
Tim vntinir trusts of the Guaranty Trust
company and tho Bankers Trust com
pany of New York, of which members 01
the Morgan firm were members, was
scored In tbo money trust report and
membership on many other boards by In
dividuals of tho firm was characterized
by the Puju Investigation committee and
by Fajnuet Untormcyer. Its chief in
vestigator, as one of tho evidences of
the so-called "money trust."
As a result of that congressional In-
ciiniinn uevcrul bills aimed at lnter-
ili,. iiireetorates were framed, the
senate committee which conducted an
extended Investigation of the trust slt
imllnli mi its own account, considered
kills which Included inhibitions against
interlocking directorates and even the ad
ministration turrency bill recently en
acted Into Ur. was threatened with
t nieiidm- nts to that effet though the
measure got through both houses with
out them.
A Partial Groundwork.
Both bills now pending In the house
Judiciary committee will serve as a par
tial groundwork, at least, for the pro
jected trust legislation of the present
congress contains provisions against the
so-called "Interlocking control" of corporations.
Secretary Redfleld of tho Department
of Commerce In his annual report,
recommended legislation against it.
President WIIson' view on that phoso
ot tho question, according to well-in
formed officials, were expressed in tho
recent arrangement by which tho Amerl
can Telephone and Telegraph company
gave up Its relations with the Western
Union Telegraph company. It Is gener
ally understood that the president's views
were communicated in a message, to "big
business," through Attorney General Mc-
Heynolds, who conducted tho telephone
case negotiations and was heartily com
mended by President Wilson on the result.
Defendants In .Salt.
Individual members and directors of
the Morgan firm and some former mem
bers are defendants In govornraant suits
now pending for the dissolution of com
binations under the Sherman law. Not
able among them arc the suits against
the United States Steel corporation, the
International Harvester company and tho
so-called Shipping trust.
The government's contemplated action
against the New Haven also would In
clude the Morgan directors. If It Is fi
nally filed, Instead of being settled out of
court, as promises to be the case.
Members of the old money trUBt com
mittee were away from Washington to
day, but their representative declared
that the Morgan house had twenty-three
directorships in thirteen banks and trust
companies, having total resources of
$1,405,000,000 and total deposits of f89,0M,.
GOO; four directorships in four insurance
companies and a controlling stock In
terest In another, tho total assets being
11,219,000,000; twenty directorships in
twelve transportation systems having a
total capitalization of s.S79,00O,0CO; twelve
directorships In seven producing and
trading corporations. Including the United
States steel, Pullman and General Klec
trio and others, having a total capital!
xatlon ot 1,9S3,000,VJO, and total gross
aJlnual earning exceeding 1809,XW,000, and
four directorships In three, public utility
corporations, have a total capitalization
of . l.O13,)o,M0 find total gross earning
of 1JSI.000.000. That mado sixty-three
directorships In thirty-nine corporations
having total resources of capitalization
of I10.08J.000.COO,
, The rerort also found Hut J P Morgun
& Co. had two of the three voting trus
tees of the Guaranty Trust company of
New York and ono of tho three voting
trustees of the Bankers' Trust company
of New York, (until George W Perkins
retired); one of tho three voting trustees
of the Chicago Great Western, two of
the five voting trustoes of tho Interna
tional Mercantllo Marine company, ono
of tho three voting trustees of tho South
ern railway, one each of tho voting trus
tees In tho expired voting trusts of the
stock of tho International Harvester
company, Northern Pacific and Heading
company and Erie railroad.
Newa of the voluntary relinquishment
of directorships creatod profound sur
prise In congressional circles. Many sena
tors and representatives believed that the
action taken by tho Morgan house would
have tho effect of delaying further work
by congress. Others Insisted that legisla
tion will bp passed at the present session
to prohibit Interlocking directorates.
Interesting, Nu Wilson.
GULP POP.T. Miss.. Jan. 2. President
Wilson read tho Associated Press dis
patch telling of the retirement of J. P.
Morgan & Co., directorates of many Im
portant corporations. Tho president read
It carefully. Including tho statement of
air. Morgan.
Asked If he had anything to say re
garding tho matter, Mr. Wilson smiled
and answered "Oh, no."
President Wilson has boon deeply ab
sorbed In preparation here of tho mes
sage he expects to read to congress, deui-
Ing with the trusts and "big business."
One of the subjects with which ho ex
pects to deal Is interlocking directorate.
That the president confidently expects
legislation on this phase of the trust
problem Is known to thoso with whom
he conferred before leaving Washlncton.
Withdrawal from discussion of the cur
rency bill In the house of a provision with
respect to Interlocking directorates was
with the president's consent and with the
assurance to its advocates that separate
legislation .would be forthcoming at tho
regular session of congress.
