Pa., and Japanese servant have arrived at 
the Weiss cottage on Mt. Pleasant ave., 
East Gloucester, for an indefinite stay.

owning large interests in the Lehigh Val- 
ley coal lands. They closed the cottage 
in the late fall and returned to Bethle- 
hem.

E. J. Edwards’ article on the “‘ Big 
Six World’s Most Powerful Financial 
Group’’ includes Henry Clay Frick of 
Pittsburg and Pride’s Crossing—‘“‘ first, 
because he is recognized as one of the 
greatest constructive business forces the 
United States has ever had, second, 
because he is presumed to be the largest 
individual owner of the stocks of the 
Pennsylvania R. R. and Reading Rail- 
way Co., third, because of his unbounded 
optimism, profound faith in the future of 
the country, and fourth because as an in- 
dividal he possesses the third largest meas- 
ure of capital and credit in the country.”’ 
He was the first of the men of capital to 
call on J. P. Morgan to proffer aid in the 
1907 panic.
