ne.ws, jibout (.he street groups of men
gathered to discuss whgt was tno^ll-
absorbiiig topic. _ _ '
Mr. Morgan, departing from big
firm’s traditional policy of sU^ocd,
• made a public statement, announcing
^Itje withdrawal 1 of five members 6{ j;.
Morgan & Co ^rom direcforslilpe it
‘rj; twenty-seven cori>erations and this in-
. tetitfon to withdraw from more. He
said,: 1 ,

directors. We haye already resigned
from the companies mentioned and
we expect from time to time toiwith
draw from/other boands upon which
we feel there la npi: special obligation
to remain.’' 1
Ceorge F. Baker followed MV. Mor
gan's lead and in resppnse to a ques
tion whether he Jn^ended^tp follow
thef example of the Morgan firm, said
be intended to get out of as many
conlpanies as would let him. 1
"There fs not the Slightest doubt in
my mind that the announcement
made, by J. P. Morgan & Co., is only,
the forerunner of many simiUr an
nouncements that will be made- In
the near future, and from my poitijt
of view the effect will be wholesome
and far-reaching.' Only a few dayp
ago the, American Telegraph and Tel
ephone ,company showed that it wart
In^syJtipathy with the spirit of tlie
times' by 'annouficlng that it would
stirfender coiittol df the Western
Union Telegraph corppany., and Fri
day’s announcement is Just 'another
indication that Our pig meh appre^
elate that a ‘public be pleased’ policy
Is better than the old ‘public he
damned’ idea,*’ "'

order. It waa the uightr of the reg-^niuda Island,

particular club hail, ’ahv/iys been so
largely a unit, that it wa^ presumed
that-there would bfe fio/dorttest In
tho meeting. But the opposition was
fighting for every advantage'no mat
ter iiow desperate the chance of-sue*

room claiming the right, of member

the old idertibers. Thore Was np use
to appeal to the party rules or consti

This Crowd, included a 'ng.fnhdr of
men'who appeared tb be utter sttdng-

companied with threats.
W*hile some bfThe old members de
