IHf MORSf CONVICTION.
Tho conviction of C. W. Morse,
the ice trust promoter, appeared
inevitable as his trial progressed.
Every day’s dispatches wrote his
j.uilt the clearer, llisdefen.se was
pitifully uncouviucing. It amount
<d virtually to a plea of ignorance
of the law.
The banking interests have no
reason to feel that their honor has
Imv.mi assailed because Morse must
go to prison. He was of their num-
tier only so far as he could employ
funds in his charge for the pur-
pose of swinging stock deals. His
operations were carried on with
the knowledgeaiways present that!
he might wreck the institution «f(
w iieh he was the head. It has I
brm declared that the attempt on
the part of Wall Street to rid it- j
s’If of Morse and to avenge itself 56
upon K. Augustus Ileinze caused j
the panic of last fall. This may lie! *wgj
far from the actual truth, but ca- 5si

Morse is a type of what has been
called “picdatory rich.” He was
a get-rieh-quick financier upon :t I'D
large scale, daring, unscrupulous, Lgjj
inordinatedly selfish and self I
interested. The promotion of the j jjg
ice trust was carried through at a
time when un unusually hot sum-
liter emphasized a shortage in the
ioe supply. To aid the tloating of
the stock great blocks of shares ’sj
were scattered about among inliu- J ^
ential brokers, city officials and
those who might be expected to
inaugurate reprisals. Investigators
found that Mayor Van Wyck had
accepted certificates offered him
gratuitously. The lise in the price
of ice, partly due to the shortage
