eighties old Jay Gould was the most power-- ful as well as the most feared man in Wall Street His particular hobby was the securing of control of various railroad properties which he would proceed to wreck and then dispose of He had great faith in the possibilities of the West and Southwest and many a Wall street financier looked on his in that section with a properties But they knew better

for acquiring railroad properties and his great ambition was to gain of a road which would stretch from the Atlantic to the Pacific The moBt valuable piece of railroad 'property in the Gould estate

with the panic of 1907 which forever his destroyed transcontinental dream Four of his roads the Western Maryland Terminal the Wheeling and Lake Erie and the International and Great Northern which ran went into the hands of into Texas receivers within a period of one year He did not give up however but on the contrary began a new scheme to recuperate his properties His first step was to patch up his differences with Harriman which was accomplished by the arrangements of the Western Pacific to be operated on amicable relations with the Southern Pacific Another plan adopted for raising funds was to cut off the dividends from the and turn back all earnings into the company Gould himself was not adverse to sacrifices and did not accept one cent salary from his work as president of the road About this time it was discovered that Kuhn Loeb & Co who were agents for the Harriman road had underwritten some Missouri Pacific $30000000 of the bonds It was in 1909 that another of the Gould properties passed out of the control of that family This was oc casioned when the American Telegraph & Telephone Co took over the Western Union An inkling as to the railroad situation was given during last summer when the Pearson Farquhar Syndicate which had been organized for of the purpose gaining control of the transcontinental road went to smash securities which Among the many they held were large blocks of Missouri Pacific and Wabash These securities were taken off their hands by Kuhn Loeb & Co With such a large interest in the Gould roads it became very evident that this banking house
