The sinking of the Titanic has to be looked at within the context of the historical events surrounding it.
The first part of history to read is History of International Banking - J.P. Morgan.
Then, the more recent historical data related to sinking Titanic is given in 7 books Book 1 - Let There Be Light
Tesla and Westinghouse financial threat to the jewish troublemakers
Book 2 - Divide and Conquer
Tesla and Astor financial threat to the jewish troublemakers
Book 3 - The Dark Knights
Astor financial threat in Central America to the jewish troublemakers
Book 4 - Astor and Morgan in Egypt
Book 5 - Put Out The Light
The sinking of the Titanic
Book 6 - events following sinking Titanic
Book 7 - Analysis
The events leading up to the sinking of Titanic involves 3 inventors Tesla, Astor and Westinghouse they
were opposed by J.P. Morgan and his banking/business buddies.
The three inventors and their relationships with each other, posed a financial threat to Morgan and his business
associates, so they ruined their lives with underhanded tactics.

The Independent Order of Bnai Brith, a Jewish Scottish Rite Freemasonry lodge, was formed in New York in
1843. At that time America was referred to as the New World.
Another name for the Independent Order of Bnai Brith is the "New World Order."
A quote taken from The Menorah, the monthly magazine of the IOBB:
"When the constellation of the Jewish nation had gone down, then arose from the ruins, out of the Western
horizon, from America's new world, a new star for all our co-religionists, then sprang into being the Order B'ne
B'rith." 1
The term "New World Order" is also used to describe said goals of the IOBB, such as:
One World Government
One World Bank
One World Currency
One World Religion

etc.
People are not people, they are property - to do with as they wish. People are also viewed as pawns (as in chess)
in the jewish troublemakers Grand Plan against the powers of darkness.
Bnai Brith means Sons of the Covenant. That refers to the Covenant between God and Abraham. Sons of the
Covenant means the descendants of Abraham, referred to as Jews.
Another quote from the Menorah:
"The term Sons of the Covenant gets a wider meaning, for the covenant that the members of this Order agree to
fulfill is to aid in the spread of the power of light, to wage constant warfare with the powers of darkness." 1, 2
These same people established Temple Emanu-El in New York in 1845.
Emanu-El means God is with us. Some of the names involved are:
Rothschild
Schiff
Seligman
Adler
Lehman
Warburg
Loeb
Guggenheim
Oppenheim
Straus
etc.
They consider themselves leaders of a "Kingdom of Priests" and "brothers of light".

New York Magazine April 21, 1980 The Temple That "Our Crowd" Built:
Headquarters for the New World Order is the IOBB/Temple Emanu-El in New York. More currently, I.O.B.B.
headquarters is now called Bnai Brith International, and is based out of Washington, D.C.
Temple Emanu-El celebrated its 100th anniversary in 1945. One of the lectures given at the celebration was
titled - The significance of Israel and Judaism for a new world order, by Samuel Schulman.
The New World Order people have taken steps to dominate and control not only banking, governments and
religion, but also all of the other major areas of business and commerce, as well as entertainment, arts and
literature. In these endeavors they have established many associated sub-organizations and made use of many
people. One of these people was John Pierpont Morgan.
These specific people and their ancestors have amassed great fortunes through some of the most despicable
means, such as slave-trafficking, drug-trafficking, wars, self-serving banking practices and self-serving business
practices.
They are as black as coal. Like the Wizard of Oz hiding his true identity behind a curtain, they seek to hide their
actual dark character behind such flowery words as "brothers of light" and insignificant philanthropy. That does
not make up for the millions of people who have had their lives ruined or lost at the hands of these people.
The majority of the people of the Jewish faith, like the majority of people in the world, are not like these
troublemakers of whom I speak. They are not seeking world-wide control and domination of all humanity.

Jewish Banking Tactic To Gain Control Of A Country

Examples of Self-Serving Jewish Banking/Business Practices
The jewish banking firm of Bischoffsheim, Goldschmidt and Co., of Paris, London, and Brussels, was operating
in the 1800s. The senior partner of the firm in the late 1800s was Senator Bischoffsheim, whose son-in-law
was Baron de Hirsch.
Some of their associates were the Seligmans, the Oppenheims, the Erlangers, the Sterns, and the Goschens. Most
of these came originally from Frankfurt-on-Main, also home to the Schiffs, Adlers, and Rothschilds.

6/9/14 5:10:18 PM
Bischoffsheim, Goldschmidt & Co. also acted as loan agents (bankers) for the Ottoman Empire. Hirsch amassed
his fortune while acting for Bischoffsheim, Goldschmidt & Co. in the 1870s. His main area of interest was
railroads.
A large part of this fortune would be turned over to Bnai Brith and Temple Emanu-El for their jew-placement
projects around the world. 3
The jewish troublemakers are using their own people as pawns. Think of it like moving chess pieces into
position on a board, preparing your attack, and youll have the right idea.
Per the Jewish Encyclopedia:
Though only a clerk, he soon became the master-mind of this great international banking house. Having
inherited from his father and grandfather a considerable fortune, which was largely augmented by his wifes
dowry, he embarked in railway enterprises on his own account in Austria, the Balkans, and in Russia.
Just after the opening of the Suez Canal in Egypt, Baron de Hirsch obtained a concession from the Ottoman
government to construct a railway 2,000 kilometres in length through the Balkans - The Orient Railway
Company.
Note:
This is the jewish troublemakers modus operandi to get a country into debt to primarily jewish bankers:
The "offer" to "build a railroad" for a loaned fee of course, with a small catch. Insignificant really, just a little
clause that should the country in question default on the "loan", they will lose control of their country, one way
or another. And, the deal offered, is usually some variation of "I will loan you this amount, but oh, by the way,
youre only going to see this much of that. But, you still get the joy of paying me back the full amount anyway."
For example, in this case, Turkey was indebted for 792,000,000 francs. What they actually got was 254,000,000
francs. What a deal, eh?
And, Hirschs group only built 1,274 kilometres of track, and didnt finish it. This is another common aspect of
these "railroad deals". But you can bet Baron de Hirsch and friends are gonna come-a-knockin if Turkey didnt
pay the full loan amount anyway.
Khedive Ismail ruled Egypt from 1863 until 1879. He and the Egyptian people would lose their share of the
Suez Canal to the banking houses of Europe. The European bankers would lavish upon him huge loans, but with
stiff terms. For example, in one instance, the Rothchilds loaned Ismail, through the state, 8.5 million pounds
sterling against some 435,000 acres of the richest agricultural land in the world, but the proceeds he received
after various deductions amounted to only 4.36 million pounds.
During the eleven year period surrounding Ismail's efforts to turn Cairo into a Paris on the Nile, he was loaned
some 68 million pounds sterling, from various European bankers, of which only 48 million actually reached his
hands, and in the end, he was forced to sell his share in the Suez Canal to the British for four million pounds.
Benjamin Disraeli, jewish Prime Minister of England, arranged to buy up Egypts shares in the Suez Canal. 5
Lionel Nathan de Rothschild provided the cash needed by Disraeli to purchase the Suez Canal shares. 4

Benjamin Disraeli 1881

In 1876, self appointed Europeans, sitting in judgement on Ismails financial situation, told him that he owed
them 91 million pounds sterling and by 1879, that sum had reached 100 million. Ismail probably actually saw
little of this money himself, and in fact a large amount of it was used to finance various European projects in
Egypt.
In 1879, Britain and France did what they had been waiting to do for some time, taking over Egypt's finances
with two comptroller generals, one British and one Frenchman. Then, on June 19th, 1879, the Europeans took
another extraordinary step, when the British and French consuls generals called on him at Abdin Palace and
instructed the khedive to abdicate. 5
Note:
These tactics were used on Latin and Central American countries by IOBB members.
When the President of one of these countries did not cooperate to give jewish bankers what they wanted,
military action was used against that President. Sometimes the U.S. miltary was sent and other times
revolutionaries were hired to overthrow that President and install a man who would cooperate with the jewish
bankers.
Step 1 - loan the country money, the payback far exceeds the amount given
Step 2 - obtain priveleges for use or ownership of land and other assets
Step 3 - when the country defaults on the loan, seize assets and leadership
Step 4 - install new leadership favorable to the jewish bankers
Step 5 - use of the countrys natural resources for jewish banker profits

Tesla and Westinghouse financial threat to the jewish troublemakers

Ruining Westinghouse
Inception of Electric Lighting For Homes and Businesses

Morgan Partner An Incorporator of Edison Electric Illuminating Company
1882 - Edisons lighting system was a great deal of trouble to install. There were frequent short circuits and
many breakdowns at the generating plant. The generator had to be run by an expert engineer who came on duty
at 3 P.M., so that at any time after four oclock on a winters afternoon the lights could be turned on. This man
went off duty at 11 P.M.
The neighbors complained of the noise of the dynamo, and Mrs. James M. Brown next door said that its
vibrations made her house shake. J. P. Morgan had the machinery taken up and heavy pads of rubber put
underneath it. Sand bags were piled around inside the walls of the cellar to deaden the noise and the vibrations.
Altogether the individual electric plant was not in favor, either in the family or with neighbors.
Mr. Edison built his first public generating station at 257 Pearl Street and the current had been turned on there at
three oclock in the afternoon of September 4. The result was that in a few office buildings downtown the
Edison Electric Illuminating Companys lights blazed in place of the long familiar gas jets. The new central
power station supplied one hundred and six lights in the Drexel Building. It was soon evident to J. P. Morgan
that the service furnished by the central power station was much better than that of the individual plant at his
house.
Among the incorporators of the new company was Morgans partner, Egisto P. Fabbri, who was also made
treasurer of the company. J. Hood Wright, George S. Bowdoin and C.H. Coster of the firm [Drexel, Morgan
Co.] were also interested in it, but up to that time Morgan had not personally bought any of its stock. 73
Edison Steals From Tesla

Tesla Invents Motors That Provide Alternating Current Electricity
Nikola Tesla was a physicist and inventor. He is best known for his revolutionary work in electricity and
magnetism. His patents and theoretical work formed the basis of modern alternating current electric power. 6

6/9/14 5:10:18 PM
Nikola Tesla
On 6 June 1884, Tesla first arrived in the U.S., in New York City, with a letter of recommendation to Thomas
Edison. Tesla claims he was offered $50,000 if he redesigned Edison's inefficient DC motors and generators.
Tesla said he worked night and day on the project and gave the Edison Company several profitable new patents
in the process. 55 In electricity, improvements were made in the laboratory based upon the initiative of a very
few men, while the patents connected with the industry had not long been issued and most of them were
controlled by two or three companies. 73
In 1885 when Tesla inquired about the payment for his work, Edison replied, "Tesla, you don't understand our
American humor," thus breaking his word.
Earning a mere $18 per week, Tesla then immediately resigned when he was refused a raise to $25 per week. 55
Alfred Brown heard about Tesla and recognized the advantages of alternating current. They form a new
company, Tesla Electric Company, in April 1887.
At the end of 1887 Tesla filed for seven U.S. patents that were among the most important in the history of the
electrical industry. They covered AC motors. But Tesla was swindled by his financiers and he was forced out of
the company.
Tesla constructed the initial brushless alternating current induction motor in 1888.
Tesla Works With Westinghouse to Provide AC Electricity

In 1888, Tesla began working with George Westinghouse at Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company.
Westinghouse was a decent person who did not treat his employees as slave labor. Westinghouse had pension
Page -8-

plans, disability insurance, housing aid, and profit-sharing.

He also gave his employees turkeys on holidays. His employees loved him. He treated Tesla in a similar manner
and offered Tesla the best deal he ever had.
Westinghouse listened to Teslas ideas for systems which would allow transmission of alternating current
electricity over long distances. He offered Tesla an excellent deal for his patent rights to Tesla's AC motor. He
paid Tesla $60,000 in cash and Westinghouse stock and agreed to pay him $2.50 per horsepower on all AC
capacity the company sold.
Westinghouse and Tesla

Edison General Electric was formed in 1889 by J.P. Morgan. It was an umbrella company that merged all of
Edisons holdings. 77
Edison (backed by J.P. Morgan) was so worried about this new alliance between Tesla and Westinghouse, that
he secretly hired an engineer named Harold P. Brown, to launch a spurious campaign against AC use. He had
him perform public demonstrations in which animals were electrocuted by AC power.
Brown also invented the electric chair for executing prisoners sentenced to death. It was part of the black
propaganda campaign against alternating current electricity. 56, 55
When the chair was first used, on August 6, 1890, the technicians on hand misjudged the voltage needed to kill
the condemned prisoner, William Kemmler. The first jolt of electricity was not enough to kill Kemmler, and
only left him badly injured. The procedure had to be repeated and a reporter on hand described it as "an awful
spectacle, far worse than hanging." George Westinghouse commented: "They would have done better using an
axe."

Jewish Bankers Control All American Industry
Westinghouse Only Exception Bankers Try To Takeover Westinghouse
J.P. Morgan tries to get control price-wise of Westinghouse/Tesla soon-to-be AC power. In 1890 Morgan puts
out an offer to control competition in the electrical industry by price and output agreements. Westinghouse
refuses the Morgan offer, he is opposed to the banking and corporate trusts as they obstruct free competition.
And as revealed in the 1912 Congressional Pujo Committee hearings, Westinghouse STOOD ALONE in all of
American industry, as free of control of the New York Bankers. 55
The Pujo Committee found that the officers of the five largest New York banks held 341 directorships in
112 major corporations. Morgan-related officers were on 72 company boards. Westinghouse Electric had been
the notable exception to the New York bankers control of American industry.
On 4 May 1891 A syndicate that consisted of August Belmont & Co. of New York (Rothschild), Lee,
Higginson & Co. of Boston, and Brayton Ives, president of Western National Bank, were proposing to
reorganize Westinghouse electric. Westinghouse opened the stockholders meeting and made it clear that
negotiations were under way, agreed to meet 2 weeks later, he said the same thing, and in the end, pulled off the
loans he needed which then kicked out the syndicate!

Lionel Walter Rothschild [Baron]
Westinghouse and Tesla Compete Against Edison/Morgan

Westinghouse and Tesla Win Contract to Provide Electricity
March 5, 1892 Experts announced proposals to harness Niagara Falls for generating electricity. The
commission was led by Lord Kelvin and backed by entrepreneurs such as J. P. Morgan, Lord Rothschild,
[Morgans firms were agents of the Rothschilds] and John Jacob Astor IV.
Edward Dean Adams was a New York financier who had studied engineering at MIT. Adams had made a name
for himself in reorganizing bankrupt railroads and trusts. Adams was the driving force behind the promotion of
the giant hydroelectric power plant at Niagara.
April 15, 1892 Morgan combines Edison General Electric with the Thomson-Houston firm - thus forming
General Electric. This allows Thomas Edison to focus on lab work. Morgan was preparing to war with
Westinghouse and Tesla with the ultimate goal of gaining a monopoly in the electrical power industry. 77
Morgans modus operandi was to take control of successful companies in areas of major industry, then put in a
financial organization that would send the profits to the banks. 55
General Electric first-stage bid was submitted in the fall of 1892. In March 1893, both companies, General
Electric and Westinghouse, submitted final bids.
In 1893 when Adams company had to decide between using AC or DC for Niagara, Adams had sought Tesla's
advice Tesla sends letters to Adams from January to May to answer questions about alternating current
electricity.
The General Electric proposal was for using DC (direct current). The Westinghouse proposal was for using
Tesla's AC (alternating current) system. Westinghouse won the international Niagara Falls Commission
contract. Work began in 1893 on the Niagara Falls project and electric power at the Falls was generated and
transmitted as alternating current. 55

Vindictive Nature of the Jewish Oligarchy and Morgan

Morgans son-in-law, Herbert Satterlee, wrote Morgans biography J. Pierpont Morgan An Intimate Portrait By Herbert L. Satterlee copyright 1939
The book is an attempted whitewash of Morgan. Here is one portrayal in the book:
He was also sponsor of the Niagara Falls Power Company. In this instance Mr. Morgan again showed his
confidence in Mr. Edisons marvelous inventive resources and in the corporations which put them at the service
not only of the American people but of the whole world. He kept in close touch with the financial end of these
enterprises, and their development was according to an orderly pattern.
Morgan portrayed as an innocent and good-hearted shepherd in the interests of people?
J.P. Morgan was an agent for the jewish international banking family the Rothschilds. He was also a close
associate of members of IOBB and Temple Emanu-el in New York. Their banking/business practices sought to
create monopolies for themselves.
This oligarchy is vindictive. When someone gets in their way, they act to harm and punish that person by taking
away their business, destroying their house and other ways.
Morgan was extremely vindictive, even on a personal level. The following story, taken from a book about
Morgan, shows an example of this.
Morgans daughter Anne had broken off from him in 1909, he blamed Bessie Marbury.
Hence, he found an ingenious way to torture her. Marbury coveted the French Legion of Honor and believed she
deserved it for her work in officially representing French dramatists in the English-speaking world. By chance,
in 1909, Robert Bacon... was named ambassador to France. Bowing to Pierponts wishes, he made sure she was
denied the honor. Knowing that the House of Morgan objected prevented Bessie Marbury from ever receiving
the government award- even after she spent years raising money for France and donated her Versailles home as
a hospital during World War I. Anne was decorated as a commander of the Legion of Honor for running an
ambulance corps and performing reliefe work. But Marbury - notwithstanding letters of praise from former
presidents Roosevelt and Taft - couldnt overcome the French fears of offending Morgan interests. Even beyond
his grave, Pierpont Morgan would not be thwarted. 78
Financial Panic Engineered in 1893

On the heels of losing the Niagra Falls contract, a financial panic starts on 5 May 1893.
The first big financial explosion in Wall Street which marked the beginning of the panic occurred on May 5,
when the National Cordage Company collapsed and precipitated the failure of six Wall Street firms. 73
Imagine that!
National Cordage Company [rope manufacturers] It is noteworthy because of its expansion at the beginning of

the 1890s and its initial public offering of $5,000,000 of 8% cumulative preferred stock. The corporation sought
to decrease the cost of production and distribution of their products. It issued a prospectus on August 1, 1887
and quickly sought to dominate the market in raw materials.
A financial panic in the United Kingdom and a drop in trade in Europe caused foreign investors to sell
American stocks to obtain American funds backed by gold.
[Morgan counterpart Peabody/Rothschilds in England helping to bring about the panic]
The National Cordage Company (the most actively traded stock at the time) went into receivership as a result of
its bankers calling in their loans in response to rumors regarding the NCC's financial distress. As the demand
for silver and silver notes fell, the price and value of silver dropped. Holders worried about a loss of face value
of bonds, and many became worthless.
[what do you want to bet those rumors were in the press, and planted in the street?]
A series of bank failures followed...
...in total over 15,000 companies and 500 banks failed (many in the west). According to high estimates, about
17%-19% of the workforce was unemployed at the Panic's peak.
The huge spike in unemployment, combined with the loss of life savings by failed banks, meant that a oncesecure middle-class family could not meet their mortgage obligations. As a result, many walked away from
recently built homes.
Farm distress was great because of the falling prices for export crops such as wheat and cotton.
Politically, the Democrats and President Cleveland were blamed for the depression. The decline of the gold
reserves stored in the U.S. Treasury fell to a dangerously low level, forcing President Cleveland to borrow $65
million in gold from Wall-Street banker JP Morgan in order to support the gold standard. 6
Westinghouse/Tesla Win Another Electrical Contract

Anthony Drexel dies June 30, 1893 leaving Morgan in charge of the firm. Morgan was also in charge of the
London firm of his father, J.S. Morgan & Co., when his father died in 1890.
Amidst the financial panic of 1893, the World Fair was held in Chicago. A large portion of it's grounds were
devoted to electrical exhibits.
It was an historical moment and the beginning of a revolution, as Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse
introduced the public to electrical power by providing alternating current to illuminate the Exposition. The
general public observed firsthand the qualities and abilities of alternating current power.
General Electric Company (Morgan) proposed to power the electric fair with direct current at the cost of one
million dollars.
Westinghouse, armed with Tesla's alternating current system, proposed to illuminate the exposition for half that
price. Tesla's high-frequency high-voltage lighting produced more efficient light with less heat. Westinghouse's
Page -13-
Let There Be Light
6/9/14 5:10:18 PM
proposal was chosen over the inferior direct current system to power the fair.
Edison tried to prevent the use of his light bulbs in Tesla's works. General Electric banned the use of Edison's
lamps in Westinghouse's plan, in retaliation for losing the bid. Westinghouse's company quickly designed a
lightbulb (sidestepping Edison's patents) and was able to light the fair.
The successful demonstration of alternating current lighting at the Exposition dispelled doubts about the
usefulness of the polyphase alternating current system developed by Westinghouse and Tesla. 43, 58
Tesla and Edison became adversaries because of Edison's promotion of direct current (DC) for electric power
distribution over the more efficient alternating current advocated by Tesla and Westinghouse. Until Tesla
invented the induction motor, AC's advantages for long distance high voltage transmission were
counterbalanced by the inability to operate motors on AC. 43
President Jackson Had Defeated the Bankers
Morgan Helps Get McKinley Elected Sets Stage For War
US Military Used As Enforcement Arm of Jewish Oligarchy
It is important to remember that President Andrew Jackson, who took down the bankers system in the United
States, and got the country out of debt, pushed hard for a gold and silver currency system.
Democratic cartoon shows Jackson slaying the monster Bank

In President Jacksons Seventh Annual Message of 7 December 1835, some of the points he covered were:
The US Debt was paid off now. That gold and silver as circulating medium was almost ready. He tells
Congress to find what has stopped correct legislation to protect against corporations. He names the political
creed of the system that is at war with us and says it will first acquire control over the labor and earnings of the
people. He says severing the Bank has to some extent severed a dangerous connection between a moneyed and
political power. He says a monopoly group is trying to get in using railroads. He talks about someone is trying to
excite the slaves to revolt, and mentions foreign emissaries. (This is the bankers - Rothschilds - beginning moves
for another War, this far back, and Jackson knows it, he doesnt miss much.) He calls for a law limiting the
Page -14-
Let There Be Light
6/9/14 5:10:18 PM
circulating of these inflammatory slave materials through the mail.

After Jackson was no longer President, the jewish oligarchy continued to make moves towards getting the
United States under their control. The Independent Order of Bnai Brith, a Jewish Scottish Rite Freemasonry
lodge, was formed in New York in 1843.
An alternate name for the I.O.B.B. is the New World Order.
The Whig political party favored the bankers. It evolved into the Republican party. President Lincoln was a
Republican president and the civil war began in 1861, resulting in getting the U.S. government back into
debt to the bankers.
The period following the Civil War was marked by railroad building, mining, and industrialization. Thus
developed an economy based on steel, oil, railroads, and machines. Mammoth corporations such as the Standard
Oil trust were formed, and captains of industry like John D. Rockefeller and financiers like J.P. Morgan
controlled huge resources.
The Sherman AntiTrust Act was passed in 1890. Then came the financial panic of 1893.
The Democratic party represented the hardships experienced by the common people and stood for the free
coinage of silver (as had been advocated by President Jackson) and sought other aids for the debtor class. 11
The oligarchy - Morgan, Rothschild etc. - was pushing for a gold standard only. The Democratic party wanted to
follow Jacksons idea of having silver and gold coins as the currency for the country.
1896 June 10 Election Year
When Mr. Morgan met the reporters he gave them an interview on the monetary system and politics in which he
said:
"The dominating question is the currency problem. If that is settled satisfactorily Europe will buy our securities.
If it is not, she wont. That is all there is to be said. By a satisfactory settlement of the currency I mean a
decision that this country will maintain the single gold standard."
The outstanding Democratic candidate was William Jennings Bryan. He had been the most eloquent advocate of
free coinage of silver, unhampered by any considerations of banking or international business relations, of which
he knew nothing. 73
Bryan was a supporter of popular democracy, a critic of banks and railroads, a leader of the silverite movement
in the 1890s, and a peace advocate. Because of his faith in the goodness and rightness of the common people, he
was called "The Great Commoner."

William Jennings Bryan

In the intensely fought 1896 and 1900 elections, he was defeated by William McKinley. In his three presidential
bids, he promoted Free Silver in 1896, anti-imperialism in 1900, and trust-busting in 1908, calling on Democrats
to fight the trusts and big banks, and embrace populist ideas. His father, Silas Bryan, was a Jacksonian
Democrat. 6
Morgan makes a secret move to get McKinley elected President:
In Cleveland, Ohio, there was a young president of a big savings bank, named Myron T. Herrick, who was a
personal friend for years of William McKinley, and of Mark Hanna of Cleveland. Mr. Hanna believed that
McKinley would be a good presidential candidate.
Herrick was very much in favor of committing the Republican Party to the gold standard, so as to force the
Democrats to come out squarely with a Silver candidate on a Silver platform. Mr. Herrick and Mr. Hanna go to
see Morgan about this.
Morgan reminded Herrick that the Republican platform should come out strongly for the single gold
standard, and that the candidate should stand squarely on it.
Morgan tells Hanna some facts concerning the monetary system of the country and the absolute necessity of
maintaining the financial reputation of our Government abroad and of providing the means for the
continued flow of gold from that side of the Atlantic to this. He was convinced that Mr. Morgan was right. No
one but the parties to it knew of this important conference until years afterward.
The Republican Convention was held and on 19 June 1896, due to Hanna and Herrick, McKinley was
nominated, on a platform that contained an unequivocal gold plank. 73

The jewish oligarchy, including members of the IOBB in New Orleans, were making moves to dominate
countries in Latin and Central America, so the oligarchy could capitalize on the natural resources of those
countries. For example, Morgan owned the Santa Clara province in Cuba, where a particularly dark and fragrant
Page -17-

variety of tobacco is grown. 6, 80

Morgans stance on Cuba was that our affiliations with Cuba were very close and the lives of American citizens
and their property on the island had been taken more than once so that the first thing to do was to drive Spain
out of her richest colonial possession. 73
The American media played up news of Spanish atrocities in Cuba and of Spain's use of concentration camps
and brutal military force to quash the Cubans' rebellion. These tactics were employed by newspapermen such as
Pulitzer and Hearst to turn American public opinion towards outright war, utilizing the publics natural
inclination to support Cubas revolution towards being a free country.
Pulitzer and Hearst drew the nation into the Spanish-American War with sensationalist stories or outright lying.
Hearst became a war hawk after a rebellion broke out in Cuba in 1895. Stories of Cuban virtue and Spanish
brutality soon dominated his front page. Some of the alleged atrocities were fictional.
Example:

At the time of the mysterious sinking of the USS Maine, the Morgan-Schiff cartel had access to a radiocontrolled detonation device, used to explode a bomb from a distance.
That device could have been used to sink the U.S.S. Maine, to start the war. Details are given in Book 2 of this
series.
May 1898 was the start of the Spanish-American war. The war was brought on by the international bankers
making moves to take control of the exports of Central America.
This is also considered to be the mark of American entry into world affairs. Ever since, the United States has
had a significant hand in various conflicts around the world.
In fact, deploying the Maine to Havana was only one part of a larger, global deployment of US naval power. As
the Maine left Florida a large part of the North Atlantic fleet was moved to Key West and the Gulf of Mexico.
Additionally, others were moved just off shore of Lisbon. And still others were moved to Hong Kong, as well as
the Phillippines.
Note:
It is important to understand that the largest part of the fleet was moved to take direct military control of the
Caribbean - Latin America and Central America.
Starting from 1898, over the next thirty-five years, the U.S. military intervened in Latin America and Central
America twenty-eight times; in Cuba, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mexico, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, El
Salvador, Panama, and Guatemala.
The U.S. military has been reduced to the metaphoric role of Vinnie the knee-breaker, working on behalf of the
Jewish oligarchy to enforce their banking/business interests in other countries. Details of the atrocities
committed are given in Book 3 of this series.

Morgan Working Towards Monopoly In Electric and Steel Industry

Rockefellers Work With Jewish Oligarchy To Monopolize Steel Industry
Andrew Carnegie was the top manufacturer of crude steel in the U.S. His company was Carnegie Steel. He lived
in North Point Breeze, the same place as George Westinghouse.
Carnegie was unusual among the industrial captains of his day because he preached for the rights of laborers to
unionize and to protect their jobs. He was also a peace advocate.
Andrew Carnegie
1898 July 17 The occupation of Cuba by the United States.
Andrew Carnegie opposed the annexation of Cuba by the United States. He and others founded an antiimperialist league that included former presidents of the United States, Grover Cleveland and Benjamin
Harrison.
This action opposed and threatened to interfere with the plans of Morgan and the jewish oligarchy in Latin and
Central America.
As the end of the Spanish American War neared, the United States bought the Philippines from Spain for 20
million dollars. Carnegie personally offered $20 million to the Filipino people so they could buy their
independence from the United States. However, nothing came of this gesture and the Filipino people rose in
revolt when they realized that they would not be granted their independence.
The Spanish-American war ended on August 12, 1898. The United States gained ownership of Guam, the
Philippines, Puerto Rico, and control over Cuba. 6
1898 Autumn - The next great industries that challenged Mr. Morgans attention were the ones involving
electricity and those that were engaged in the production of steel and the fabrication of steel products. Mr.
Morgan was doing the financing for the General Electric Company. 73

Following is an example of the Rockefellers working with the jewish oligarchy to create monopolies:
Tower, Stone, Breitung, Stuntz and others, incorporated the Minnesota Iron Company in 1882. The Minnesota
ore was shipped by George and Samuel Ely of Cleveland. In 1886, the Ely brothers shipped 307,949 tons of
Minnesota ore. The Carnegie interests of Cleveland purchased the ore in consignments of 100,000 tons at a time.
By 1886, the Minnesota Iron Company liquidated debts incurred during its first year. In 1887, the company
constructed a railroad link, connecting it to the nationwide railroad system. By that time, the company had five
mines near the town of Tower. It ranked as the third largest iron mining firm in the nation.
The quick success of the Minnesota Iron Company and the purity of its ores attracted the attention of major steel
producers. Henry H. Porter, a Chicago railroad magnate with heavy interests in the Illinois Steel Company,
headed a syndicate whose participants included John D. and William Rockefeller (Standard Oil Company),
Marshall Field
(a Chicago merchant), Cyrus McCormick (a farm implement manufacturer), and Jay C. Morse (Union Steel
Company).
By 1887, iron ore was discovered in lands north of the town of Tower, which were purchased by the syndicate.
The syndicate wished to purchase Tower's railroad in order to extend it to their lands. Tower initially refused.
The syndicate responded with the implied threat that they would construct a second railroad that would parallel
the line of Tower's railroad, destroying its value. Compounding this threat was the fact that Tower had no
control over the shipping lines that carried his ore to points east, and many of these companies were under the
thrall of East Coast iron and steel magnates, many of which were involved in the syndicate. Faced with these
challenges, Tower sold his Minnesota Iron Company and railroad to the Porter syndicate for $8,500,000 in
late 1887. 6, 82
This means that the Rockefellers are now one of the owners of Minnesota Iron.
Rockefellers used the 1893 panic to acquire a mining company on the Mesabi range
83
So now, they are going to go after Carnegie

Carnegie organizes several of his steel companies into Carnegie Steel in 1899. Tensions rise between Carnegie
and Henry Frick. Carnegie asks Frick to resign as chairman of the board. Questions remain about how much the

Frick Company will charge Carnegie for coke.

Carnegie and Frick disagree over the price of coke in 1900. Carnegie attempts to get Frick to sell him coke at a
cut-rate price, and even attempts to take over Frick's interest in Carnegie Steel. Frick sues for the market value
of his coke, and the case is settled out-of-court. 84
Carnegie had grown to dominate the steel industry. He was unstoppable, and by 1900 Carnegie Steel produced
more steel than all of Great Britain.
To stabilize this industry it would be necessary to eliminate Carnegies price cutting and the possibility of his
continued duplicating of competitive plants and paralleling of railroads. The soft-ore mines (Missabe ore) were
safe in Mr. Rockefellers hands but it needed someone with a knowledge of the steel business. As Morgan got
to know Judge Gary [counsel of the Illinois Steel Company] better, he realized that Gary was the man with
whom to cooperate.
J.P. Morgan
Elbert H. Gary
Judge Gary organized the Federal Steel Company. This corporation was made up of the Illinois Steel Company,
the Minnesota Iron Company (hard-ore mines), and the control of some appurtenant railroad properties. Mr.
Morgan was in close touch with this on account of the interest which his clients had in the Minnesota Iron
Company. (Rockefellers are part of the syndicate that owns Minnesota Iron Company, so they are one of
Morgans clients.)
These clients were represented on the board of directors of Federal Steel by Robert Bacon. As a result, Morgan
financed the Federal Steel Corporation with a capitalization of $100,000,000 of preferred stock and
$100,000,000 of common stock, and found the working capital for it. Robert Bacon represented Mr. Morgan on
the board of directors of Federal Steel.

Robert Bacon called the greek God of Wall Street

Mr. Morgan saw the chance to produce such an increased tonnage of steel that the surplus might enter the
foreign market on a price basis with which British and German steel mills could not compete. Mr. Morgan saw
the possibility of cheaply mined Missabe ore (owned by Rockefellers), with scientifically run furnaces and steel
mills, then railroad transportation to ships that would deliver the steel to foreign markets. He listened very
attentively to Judge Garys ideas about the steel industry but was not ready this year to take up the subject. The
plans which he had in mind could not be put in practical shape because he was not prepared to get into a fight
with Carnegie. 6
In July 1900 Carnegie decides to expand his business into finished products, such as pipe and wire - which will
compete with some of J.P. Morgan's interests. Carnegie Steel was already in competition with Morgan steel
companies - Federal Steel and National Tube.
As head of the second largest steel group, Morgan feared a replication of the railroad chaos with overbuilding
and price wars. He growled that Carnegie would demoralize the entire industry through competition. Morgan
believed Carnegie had become too much of a threat to his empire and must be bought out entirely. 64, 78
While Carnegie believed he could beat Morgan in a battle, the fight did not appeal to the 64-year old man, who
was eager to spend more time with his family. Carnegie wrote the asking price for his steel business on a piece
of paper and had one of his managers deliver the offer to Morgan. Morgan accepted without hesitation, buying
the company for $480 million.
Carnegie's share of this amounted to $225,639,000, which was paid to Carnegie in the form of 5%, 50-year gold
bonds. The letter agreeing to sell his share was signed on 26 February 1901. A special vault was built to house
the bulk of nearly $230,000,000 worth of bonds. It was said that Carnegie never wanted to see or touch these
bonds.
The buyout was the largest such industrial takeover in United States history to date. The holdings were
incorporated in the United States Steel Corporation, a trust organized by Morgan, that was capitalized at
$1,400,000,000.
Morgan concluded negotiations on 2 March 1901, and announced the formation of the United States Steel
Corporation on May 3, 1901.
The capitalization of United States Steel made it the largest corporation ever organized. With Mr. Morgan it was

not a question of bargaining and saving money when companies were purchased, so much as the elimination of
disturbing personalities and the selection of the right men to run the great corporation. The men were at
hand: Judge Gary for management and Charles M. Schwab, president of the Carnegie Steel Company, for
manufacture.
Charles Schwab
The United States Steel Corporation was organized with an issue of $550,000,000 of preferred stock,
$550,000,000 of common stock, and $304,000,000 of bonds.
When Morgan bought out Carnegie with bonds, instead of stock in United States Steel, the result was that
Andrew Carnegie was eliminated from any voice in the affairs of the new company.
In rapid succession the following companies were acquired: American Bridge, American Tin Plate, National
Steel, American Steel Hoop, American Sheet Steel, National Tube, Federal Steel, American Steel & Wire, and
Mr. John D. Rockefellers Lake Superior Consolidated Iron Mines, which included the principal mines and
carried the control of the transportation between the Missabe Range and the eastern end of Lake Erie. Purchase
of the Carnegie Company brought in the great coking-coal fields and the Frick ovens, as well as the Pittsburgh,
Bessemer & Lake Erie Railroad.
Charles Steele represented Morgan on the executive committee, and Robert Bacon represented Morgan on the
finance committee.
The Billion Dollar Steel Trust was attacked as a monopoly. Andrew Carnegie told a friend that he would soon
come back into possession of Carnegie Steel Company. Pierpont is not an iron-master, he said; he knows
nothing about the business of making and selling steel. I managed my trade with him so that I was paid for my
properties in bonds, not stocks! He will make a fizzle of the business and default in payment of the interest. I
will then foreclose and get my properties back, and Pierpont and his friends will lose all their paper profits.
Pierpont feels that he can do anything because he has always got the best of the Jews in Wall Street. It takes a
Yankee to beat a Jew, and it takes a Scot to beat a Yankee! This pleased him so much that he repeated it many
times, and always with a self-satisfied chuckle.
He did not realize that Mr. Morgan would not have paid him in anything but bonds because he wanted to
eliminate him from control and have him as a creditor only and not as a partner.

THE STEEL RAIL FIGHT.; Illinois Steel Company and Minnesota Iron Company Join Forces to Fight the
Rockefeller-Carnegie People.
February 13, 1897
Chicago, Feb. 12. -- Allied with the Minnesota Iron Company, the Illinois Steel Company stands squarely
defiant of the Carnegie-Rockefeller combination. The smashing of the steel-rail pool, with its reduction in
prices, has precipitated this duel of corporations. By this alliance a monopoly in steel rails, it is said, is rendered
impossible.
Wow! The Rockefellers were partners with Illinois Steel Company in a syndicate that forced the Minnesota Iron
Company to be sold to them. Carnegie was never combined with Rockefeller, he was opposed by the
Rockefeller/ Illinois Steel /Morgan alliance.

Wizard of Oz Satire
Most readers in 1900 read The Wonderful Wizard of Oz as a fairy tale, but Baum and Denslow were using
images that cartoonists had used to portray American politicians.
Many of the events and characters of the book resemble the actual political personalities, events and ideas of the
1890s. The 1902 stage adaptation mentioned, by name, President Theodore Roosevelt, oil magnate John D.
Rockefeller, and other political celebrities.
(No real people are mentioned by name in the book.) Even the title has been interpreted as alluding to a political
reality: "oz" is an abbreviation for ounce, a unit familiar to those who fought for a 16 to 1 ounce ratio of silver to
gold in the name of bimetallism. In the play and in later books Baum mentions contemporary figures by name
and takes blatantly political stances without the benefit of allegory including a condemnation in no uncertain
terms of Standard Oil.
The book opens in real life Kansas, which, in the 1890s, was well known for the hardships of rural life, and for
destructive tornadoes. The Panic of 1893 caused widespread distress in the rural United States. Dorothy is swept
away to a colorful land of unlimited resources that nevertheless has serious political problems. This utopia is
ruled in part by wicked witches. Dorothy and her house are swept up by the tornado and upon landing in Oz, the
house falls on the Wicked Witch of the East, destroying the tyrant and freeing the ordinary people - little people
or Munchkins. The Witch had previously controlled the all-powerful silver slippers. The slippers will in the end
liberate Dorothy but first she must walk in them down the golden yellow brick road, i.e. she must take silver
down the path of gold, the path of free coinage of silver. Following the road of gold leads eventually only to the
Emerald City, which may symbolize the fraudulent world of greenback paper money that only pretends to have
value. 79

Munchkins are the Little People as shown in this 1896 Judge cartoon
In her journey down the yellow brick road, Dorothy encounters the tin man who has no heart, the scarecrow who
has no brain, and the lion who has no courage. They accompany her on her journey to meet the Wizard of Oz,
who they hope will give each of them what they wish for. Dorothy hopes she will be returned to her home and
family in Kansas.
The oil needed by the Tin Woodman had a political dimension at the time because Rockefeller's Standard Oil
Company stood accused of being a monopoly (which was later ruled correct in a lawsuit brought by the federal
government, and affirmed by the US Supreme Court.) In the 1902 stage adaptation the Tin Woodman wonders
what he would do if he ran out of oil. "You wouldn't be as badly off as John D. Rockefeller," the Scarecrow
responds, "He'd lose six thousand dollars a minute if that happened."
President McKinley was often called a "wizard" for his political skills. The Wizard of Oz seems to be the
president of the Land of Oz. 6

The Jewish Troublemakers Orchestrate Financial Panic in 1907

Morgan and Selected Bankers Use The Panic To Takeover Major Companies
Westinghouse Taken Over By Morgan

George Westinghouse and Henry Frick are neighbors in Pittsburgh.

(United States Steel = J.P. Morgan & Henry Frick)
March 1907 - Henry Frick gets called to an emergency meeting of J.P. Morgan Banking firm in New York,
Jacob Schiff was there. (Schiff is a member of Temple Emanu-el.)
Schiff had predicted financial problems a few months earlier; such a panicas will make all previous
panics look like childs play.
In late March, Westinghouse is on his way to his office in New York at 120 Broadway, to meet with several
New York bankers, including Morgans firm, to look at a bond offering for Westinghouse Electric.
He knew he faced an uphill struggle. He owed 9 million to the Pittsburgh banks, and the Mellon family turned
down his request for more credit. This was a move to destroy him over the Tesla thing, pure and simple. Also,
he was a wonderful employer, far out of line with how he treated his employees, with how the jewish oligarchy
treated their workers.
An example is the jewish oligarchy treating workers in Central America as slave labor.
Another example is how General Electric treated Tesla, paying him $18 per week while GE obtained profitable
patents from Teslas inventions.
Westinghouse had pension plans, disability insurance, housing aid, and profit-sharing. Henry Frick could have
saved him, but he did not like the model for employees that Westinghouse was using in his business.
Fricks mentality towards workers was exhibited in the Homestead Strike of 1892, when Frick was plant
manager at Carnegie Steel. When Carnegie was out of the country, Frick locked out workers and hired Pinkerton
thugs to intimidate the strikers. Many were killed in the conflict. 78
The bottom line is that Westinghouse left the meetings another 15 million in debt, with the promise of Morgan
supported corporate bond offering in the summer, so he went back to engineering. He had his own underground
laboratory at his house where he worked on inventions.

1907 Summer Overview - The created financial panic is continuing and getting worse. And, of course,
Westinghouses bond offering doesnt go well, due to no one buying. This panic was becoming the first
International banking crisis for the United States, a concerted effort of the Rothschild etc bankers overseas and
their counterparts in the United States.

1907 Panic J.P. Morgan (agent for Rothschild)

In July 1907 Morgan forms the Alaska Syndicate to control copper mining and supplies, which will
undoubtedly raise the prices for electrical wire, etc., that Tesla needs for his work. Morgan was also working on
cornering the rubber market, rubber being needed for electrical wire insulation. This is all part of getting control
of the market of electricity, one way or another.
August 10, 1907 - The Market Crashed - Since there was no federal reserveis the reason given by jewish
financial experts. Later in the month J.P. Morgan had to take a leadership role and solve the financial
dilemma.
Westinghouse had good sales and cash flow and in fact was preparing to pay a dividend in October. The
problem was the 43 million in bonds and debt. A 15 million dollar floating debt was coming duewhat a
coincidence, thats the Morgan arranged 15 million of course. Even with record profits, if Morgan and the
bankers called in the debt? He couldnt afford it. This was Morgans opportunity to crush Westinghouse.
In October, a run on banks startsWestinghouse is again the target of press articles alleging poor
management (which were done earlier in the year as well). These articles were part of a campaign to drive his
stock price down and to make the Westinghouse bond offering unattractive.

Panic of 1907 Wall Street the curb (stock trading was conducted in the street)
Note:
The following is data concerning the financial crisis of 1907. It is a good example of the self-serving banking
practices and self-serving business practices that are used by the jewish bankers and their associates such as J.P.
Morgan.
Do not be concerned if you do not fully understand the terminology and techniques of high finance that are
being discussed in the following data. By reading the following you can see that Morgan and his
banking/business buddies purposefully caused the financial crisis and used it to takeover ownership of
companies that were their competitors and that is the important thing to understand.
It was not a real financial crisis, it was an orchestrated show, wherein Morgan and the jewish bankers were in
complete control of it from beginning to end, they caused it to start and they decided when to end it, after they
had taken over ownership of companies who were their competitors of course. Westinghouse was one of the
companies taken over.
The data on the financial crisis of 1907 starts here:
Charles W. Morse controlled the National Bank of North America, the New Amsterdam National Bank and was
Page -33-
Let There Be Light
6/9/14 5:10:18 PM
a large owner of the Mercantile National Bank. He was also up-and-coming in the Communications Industry,
and becoming a thorn in Morgans side in that arena as well. On October 1, 1901, Morse acquired a majority of
the stock of the Telephone, Telegraph and Cable Company of America. This is said to be the first step in the
formation of a far-reaching independent telephone system. He became a close associate of F. Augustus Heinze,
who became president of Mercantile National Bank, and E.R. Thomas, a young man of large inherited fortune.
Their influence grewHeinze and Morse served as directors together on at least six national banks, 10 state
banks, five trust companies and four insurance companies. 86, 6
Charles W. Morsecenter
F. Augustus Heinze
For a few years there had been developing a minor financial group, now known as the Heinze-Morse-Thomas
group. It consisted of twelve banks and two trust companies, a consolidated steamship company, the Heinze
United Copper Company. Compared with the Standard Oil and Morgan groups it was a small factor. But its
steamship company was encroaching on Morgans New York, New Haven and Hartford road in the coastwise
traffic, and Heinze in a running fight had forced Standard Oil (Rockefeller) to buy him off at a cost reported at
$10,000,000.
Note:
It may be of interest to readers, that John Jacob Astor IV was friends with Morse, and even helped fund his upand-coming challenge to the Morgan/jewish troublemakers oligarchy. Astor had funded Morse in the amount of
$110,000, a loan which after Morse was destroyed and his companies were being re-organized, the Morgan
cartel did not honor the loan. Saying that it was was not deposited for the final reorganization.70
Morgan was ready to show an affectionate interest in Morse, and Standard Oil was quietly lying in wait for
Heinze. It all fitted together like a piece of mosaic. They could discipline the country, discredit Roosevelt, put
Consolidated Shipping out of business, and pick up Heinze and United Copper on the way. Morse and Heinze
were caught between the big groups. 62
Along with Augustus Heinze's brothers, Morse helped create a pool of money to drive up and corner the stock of
United Copper. 6

on Monday morning, October 14. ...real stock came out from holders who appeared glad to sell. (my note:
how convenientwhat a set-up!) The market broke rapidly, and then recovered as the Heinze brokers started to
execute their orders and for a time it looked as though the pool had stopped the rush. But in the last hour or so of
trading more United Copper stock was poured out on the market, and by the end of the day, with the price
thoroughly demoralized. 62
On October 15, 1907 the attempted corner on the United Copper stock had failed so spectacularly that depositors
with Morse's banks began to pull out their deposits. 6
Note:
The following data is a description of the financial crisis of 1907 by a US Senator:
Suddenly, [October 14, stock fell from 62 to 15] in the first days of October, somebody began to smash United
Copper on the curb. The stock broke badly. Standard Oil was getting under way. Doubtless, never suspecting
the source, Heinze, through his brother, a member of the stock exchange, and through brokers, bought and
bought until United Copper went out of sight, carrying down Heinzes brother, one firm of his brokers, and
involving the Morse-Heinze banks in the crash. But not for one moment did Morgan or Standard Oil miss the
opportunity offered. Morse and Heinze were forced out. They were compelled to reorganize their directorships
and substitute semi-dependent Standard Oil men as their successors. They were forced to sell their stocks for
what they could get. Morgan attacked Morses Consolidated Steamship Company stocks and bonds, and
Morse was ultimately forced to surrender his steamship company combine, which he did. They went after
the Knickerbocker Trust Company, Charles T. Barney, president, and close ally of Morses. It was charged
in New York that the interests deliberately started a run on the Knickerbocker. Morgan was appealed to
for aid. Morgan, whose plaudits have been sounded here in this Chamber, was in a position to follow carefully
every step and phase of this proceeding. In the first place, Mr. Morgan gave out, as reported in Wall street, that
the Knickerbocker would be supported if it met the demands of the depositors who had started a run upon it.
There was nothing in subsequent events to indicate that there was any sincerity in that promise, but an analysis
of every step is convincing to the contrary. Support was not given; it was withheld.
After the company, relying upon that pledge, had paid out millions, it was forced to close its doors, and Barney
went to a suicides grave. Barney was likewise a director in the Trust Company of America, a comparatively
new institution, with a few System directors, giving the great groups a semi-interest in the institution, though
they have not yet taken it over. The raid on Heinze, Morse, Barnes, et al., and the latters directorate
connections with the Trust Company of America, caused public suspicion to fall upon it.
A strong run was started. This was not on the programme, but as the Vanderbilts, allies of the Standard Oil,
were represented on the directorate of the Trust Company of America, Standard Oil was bound to offer some
assistance. Though gold and bank notes were ostentatiously piled on the counters to impress depositors, and
young Vanderbilt offered as an exhibit of resources and placed at the tellers window, the excited depositors
persisted in demanding their money. Its distant relationship to the group was sufficient to save it in the end.
Conferences over the inside condition of this trust company, however, gave Morgan, owing to his group
connections, information that the control of Tennessee Coal and Ironstock control and pool stockhad been
placed with the Trust Company of America by John W. Gates and his associates. In a Wall street panic there
is always big game to be bagged. That is one of the uses of a panic. Morgan seized the opportunity for
United States Steel. Standard Oil interests were identical with Morgans interests in this, and he made it a
condition of saving the Trust Company of America, that Gates and the Tennessee Coal and Iron pool sell
Page -35-
Let There Be Light
6/9/14 5:10:18 PM
to him at his price or the Trust Company of America should go on the rocks. The surrender was complete.
United States Steel took over Tennessee Coal and Iron, thereby tightening its grip upon the most precious of
all the national resources of the country. It was bad for the country, but the trust company was saved and
Morgan was glorified.
The Westinghouse Companys experience affords another striking illustration of the useful purposes of a
well-managed panic. Westinghouse was in the way of Standard Oils General Electric. Members of the boards
of directors of the Standard Oil banks were in a position to exert some influence at the critical moment most
harmful to Westinghouse, and he went to the wall.
The panic was working well. The stock market had gone to smash. Harriman was buying back Union Pacific
shorts, but still smashing the market. Morgan was buying in short steel stocks and bonds, but still smashing the
market. The Morse group had been disposed of. Standard Oil had settled with Heinze. The Consolidated
Steamship Company had surrendered to Morgan, and at the same time the interests were disciplining the
people. The country banks were begging for their balances. Business was being held up. On the street and
in the brokers offices the strain of apprehension was intense. In the midst of a Wall street fight, when fear
supersedes reason, it is difficult for those who are in it, but not directing it, to determine how much is real, how
much is sham. Some of the guns are loaded only with blank cartridges to alarm; some are loaded with powder
and ball to kill. The press set it all forth as it appeared on the surface. It portrayed the great financiers hurrying
to and fro, setting a prop here, a prop there, holding midnight meetings in Morgans library, seeking some way
to avert the calamity that threatened prosperity and a nations honor. It was a thrilling picture, but it was
false. The reporters were not invited to the conferences of the inner circles where sat the men who
controlled not only the great banking organizations of New York, but the transportation and business of
the country, the men who were behind the panic and would stay its progress when it had served its
purpose.
But the panic must be given a fitting finale, a dramatic finish. Standard Oil had suffered a series of mortifying
experiences and exposures that were beginning to tell upon the iron nerves of the men who for half a lifetime
had seemed utterly hardened and indifferent to public condemnation.
Morgan and others had come out of the United States Steel bond- and-stock-conversion-performance, and the
insurance scandals, badly scarred. Both Standard Oil and Morgan were much in need of redemption with the
general public. It would be a great stroke of business to wind this panic up with these gentlemen as the saviors
of public credit. A carefully elaborated climax, with Morgan and the Standard Oilers as the central figures
would invest them with a halo of self-sacrifice and public spirit almost sublime.
The floor of the stock exchange was chosen as the scene for the closing act, October 24 the time. The men who
had created the money stringency, who had absorbed the surplus capital of the country with promotions
and reorganization schemes, who had deliberately forced a panic and frightened many innocent depositors
to aid them by hoarding, who had held up the country banks by lawlessly refusing to return their deposits,
never lost sight of one of the chief objects to be attained. The cause of currency revision was not neglected for
one moment. It was printed day by day in their press; it passed from mouth to mouth. The phenomenal interest
rates were impressing the public in a way never to be forgotten. High interest rates should be made to plead for
emergency money through the telegraph dispatches of October 24 in every countinghouse, factory, and shop in
America. The banks refused credit to old customersall business to new customers. Call loans for money were
at last denied at any price. This put operators caught short or long on the rack. It spelled ruin.
For the first time since the panic began 11.30 a.m. arrived with everybody on the floor of the stock exchange
wildly seeking money at any price. Interest rates which had for several days ranged from 20 to 50 per cent
began to climb higher. Settlement must be made before 3 oclock. Money must be forthcoming, or the close of
Page -36-

the business day would see Wall street a mass of ruins and banks and trust companies on the brink of collapse.
How perfect the stage setting! How real it all seemed! But back of the scenes Morgan and Stillman were in
conference. They had made their representations at Washington. They knew when the next installment of aid
would reach New York. They knew just how much it would be. They awaited its arrival and deposit.
Thereupon they pooled an equal amount. But they held it. They waited. Interest rates soared. Wall street was
driven to a frenzy. Two oclock came, and interest rates ran to 150 per cent. The smashing of the market
became terrific. Still they waited. Union Pacific declined 104 points in ten sales. Northern Pacific and other
stocks went down in like proportion. Five minutes passedten minutes past 2 oclock. Men looked into each
others ghastly faces. Then, at precisely 2.15, the curtain went up with Morgan and Standard Oil in the center of
the stage with moneyreal money, twenty-five millions of moneygiving it away at 10 per cent.
Oh, uncrowned King!
None but himself can be his parallel.
Even to the dullest person standing by,
Who fastened still on him a wondering eye,
He seemed the master spirit of the land.
And so ended the panic.
How beautifully it all worked out. They had the whole country terrorized. They had the money of the
deposits of the banks of every State in the Union to the amount of five hundred million, nearly all of
which was in the vaults of the big group banks. This served two purposesit made the country banks join in
the cry for currency revision and it supplied the big operators with money to squeeze out investors and
speculators at the very bottom of the decline, taking in the stock at an enormous profit. In this connection,
the operations of Morgan and the Standard Oil furnish additional evidence of the character of this panic. We
have record proof of their utter contempt for commercial interests, not only for the country generally, but for
legitimate trade in New York City as well. Had there been bankers with high ideals, bankers with devotion to
commercial interests and patriotism for their country, in control of the centralized banks of New York City, the
financial mistress of a continent, with a serious panic on, real in character, which had spread throughout the
great business houses of the metropolis and to the centers of trade in the nation, bankers having to deal with that
crisis, and pressed on the commercial side for money with which to protect the interests and the commercial
honor of the country on the one hand, while the bulls and bears of Wall street clamored for loans to enable them
to speculate off of the fears and misfortunes of their fellows on the curb and in the stock exchangeconfronted,
I say, with that dual appeal from the commerce of the country upon the one hand, and the speculators upon the
other, bankers who were commercial bankers and not underwriting bankers, promoting bankers, and operating
bankers would have cared first of all for the merchant, the manufacturer, and the commerce of the country.
How was it with Morgan and the Standard Oil banks ? Did they give aid and support to the distressed
merchant and manufacturer? Did they say to the bulls and bears, You shall be denied the funds of our banks
to still further stimulate existing excitement ? Alas, no. They pursued the course of the speculating
banker. They ministered to the needs of Wall street, quite deaf to the appeals of commerce. Their course was
that of men who were playing with the credit of the country for a purpose. They curtailed their
commercial loans in every possible way. They steadily increased their call loans on the street, bestowing favor
in a way to promote their own interests, supplying their own private brokers, denying applications and forcing
all other brokers to a cash basis wherever it would turn the balance their way. The increase of call loans on
collateral aggregated over fifty millions. They let great commercial houses, great manufacturing concerns,
like the Westinghouse Company, down to ruin and dishonor, while they protected their speculative patrons.
No better evidence could be asked to establish the character of this panic or the character of the men who were
in command. By their fruits ye shall know them !

Senate bill 3023
Amendment of National Banking Laws
Wisconsin Senator La Follette
On October 20, the New York Clearing House, which had a critical role clearing checks between banks, forced
Morse to resign from his banking interests. This did not stop the panic, however, which went on to topple the
Knickerbocker Trust Company, New York's third largest trust... 6
Charles Tracy Barney
Knickerbocker Trust 1904
1952
And just as Mr. Barneys tragedy was playing out, the seeds were sown for the mutilation of his superb 1903
bank at Fifth Avenue and 34th Street, designed by Stanford White.
Mr. Barney became president of Knickerbocker Trust in 1897. In the next 10 years the banks deposits grew to
from $10 million to $61 million . It was also a beautiful building, and Barney was proud of his creation. When
it became known that Mr. Morse and Mr. Heinze were associated in some projects with Mr. Barney, he was
obliged to resign from the bank he had helped create, on Oct. 21. On Nov. 14, Barney shot himself.
Two days after the suicide, The American Architect commented coldly that the low-rise Knickerbocker bank,
so much in fashion just now, is really nothing so much as an advertisement, and that when disaster comes, a
well-rented skyscraper is a more valuable asset. 81 [Note: This building had been a dream of Barneys, that he
saw fulfilled, but there goes the troublemakers going after their enemys cherished buildings]
In 1907 Tesla had just announced a major research effort into wireless electrical transmission and was
waiting for substantial financing from Mercantile Bank, which was largely owned by Charles W. Morse.
Mercantile Bank was one of the first banks that Morgan had allowed to go under. 60
Thus we see that the 1907 financial panic was also used for cutting funding to Tesla. This should not be
underestimated in its importance. Tesla had developed the means to provide free electrical power to anywhere
in the world. This meant that homes would be provided free electricty, as well as electric automobiles running
on free electricity.
Further, it should be noted that John Jacob Astor, (due to the fact that his fortune was basically controlled by
Page -38-
Let There Be Light
6/9/14 5:10:18 PM
these very same jewish troublemaker bankers), hid his financial and moral support of Tesla as best he could. It
was Astor that arranged the financial help for Tesla through his friend Charles W. Morse. This will all be
discussed in further detail in the relevant book of this series.
By October 22, Westinghouse had almost got things arranged and under control with his old friend Judge Reed,
and Knickerbocker Trust goes down starting a chain reaction. Morgan refuses to help, so that he can now
control what happens.
Morgan held day and night meetings in his library as he moved to take control of the panic. Morgan forced the
banks to issue scrip in lieu of cash to keep the system afloat. An image promoted by the New York Times was of
the public looking to Morgan as their savior. Teddy Roosevelt now had to ally with Morgan. Morgans
European connections promoted the same image in the press, to the point of having Lord Lionel Walter
Rothschild call Morgan.
As to Westinghouse, first, he had soundly defeated Morgan, Edison and General Electric in the war of the
currents. Second, he was the only major industrialist who had ever successfully rebuffed him. Morgan, and his
jewish banker friends, were now ready to get even, and close the trap.
Morgan refused to let any New York bankers help Westinghouse, and Andrew Mellon, the lead Pittsburg
banker, held back the Pittsburgh bankers (because of the rebuff in 1892 by Westinghouse to his financial
panic) 60
1907 October 23 Morgan gave Westinghouse to another consortium of New York bankers to devour - while
he gave himself and Henry Frick... Tennessee Coal and Iron (their major competitor as United States Steel),
which they had been afraid to try and take over previously because of the possibility of Anti-Trust suits.
The bottom line? Morgan took over Westinghouse.
Three of Westinghouses companies went into Receivership, he was allowed to remain President, but the board
was constituted of bankers from New York, Pittsburgh, Chicago, and Boston. Westinghouse was anxious to
resume his research and experimentation, and in the final blow, they took even that away from him. None of that
would be done.
Morgans motto? Research is unnecessary if you have no competition.
Because his name was so strong, and his employees so loyal, the bankers, in a concession they refused to even
give Edison, had to keep the Westinghouse name on the company.
They made his life hell trying to get him to resign, but he stayed on out of loyalty to his employees, even though
he was little more than a figurehead, and was not allowed to make financial decisions, nor do anything he loved
such as engineering and research.

the nations savior in the New York Times on October 27.

Morgan and the jewish banker oligarchy caused the financial panic and used it to knock out their competition.
Charles Barney, head of Knickerbocker Trust, committed suicide. The ordinary people all across the nation were
also financially harmed by all of this. 60 And Morgan is then honored as the nations savior. Thats just plain
sick.
The interesting thing is that one thing people like Morgan, Schiff, Rockefeller, Frick, etc. can never have, is the
kind of loyalty and honoring demonstrated to Westinghouse by his employees, when they made offers to try and
help him.
J. P. Morgan assaulting photographers (he hated being photographed due to facial disfigurement caused by the
skin disease Rosacea, and had all of his portraits retouched)
In my opinion, this is Morgan without his mask, a much truer view of what he was really like.
1911 Summer the directors of Westinghouse forced a proxy fight for the company President (since they had
been unsuccessful in their behavior modification campaign against George Westinghouse). The papers, of
course, were following this and making sure everyone knew about it, ie: what new insult they were heaping on
Georges head.
Westinghouse of course lost the presidency of Westinghouse to Edwin Atkins. Thousands of workers in
Pittsburgh were saddened over the loss of their beloved boss.
1912 March The now taken-over Westinghouse corporation sues Tesla for $23,000 for equipment loaned out
in 1907. So now, Morgan and the jewish-troublemakers use Westinghouses company to attack Tesla, yet
another poisoned arrow shot into the heart of Westinghouse.
George Westinghouse died in 1914.
There is a historical pattern of the vindictive bankers, wherein they destroy the house of anyone who
significantly opposed them and build something else where it once stood. I call it their version of salting the
earth.
Even Westinghouses death wasnt enough for these crazed jewish troublemakers. Their final blow to George
Westinghouse was to destroy his mansion in 1919.
Page -40-
Let There Be Light
6/9/14 5:10:18 PM
George Westinghouse mansion

Presumably after being innocently approached with the idea, Westinghouses son sold his fathers mansion to
the Engineers Society of Western Pennsylvania. They told him that their intent was to establish a city park and a
memorial to Westinghouse there. They did not do that. They, of course, razed the house to the ground. And they
put the George Westinghouse Memorial a few miles away in Schenley Park!
Since the now Morgan/Banker dominated Westinghouse Electric Co is part of this Engineers Society, this is not
a big surprise. 61 The house of Andrew Carnegie was also destroyed within this same park.
Thus the financial threat posed to the jewish banker oligarchy by Westinghouse and Tesla providing
alternating current electricity in competition with their electric companies was over. The only major American
company that was not under the control of the New York bankers, was now under their control.
But the connection between Tesla and John Jacob Astor posed an even bigger financial threat to the New York
bankers. And that threat was not over until the Titanic was sunk.

Tesla and Astor financial threat to the jewish troublemakers
Ruining Nikola Tesla
Astor and Tesla Are Inventors and Share Ideas
Tesla age 38 1894

In 1888, Tesla began working at Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company. George Westinghouse
listened to Teslas ideas about systems that would transmit alternating current electricity over long distances. He
offered Tesla an excellent deal for the patent rights to Tesla's AC motor. He paid Tesla $60,000 in cash and
Westinghouse stock and agreed to pay him $2.50 per horsepower on all AC capacity the company sold.
55, 56
Tesla was interested in providing power without cost. As early as 1891 he had demonstrated the transmission of
electrical energy without wires. (The idea of free electricity was not welcomed by the jewish troublemakers,
think of the lost profits!)

John Jacob Astor IV assumes control of the family fortune in 1892. He was one of the wealthiest men on the
planet, with assets in the neighborhood of $100 million. He is more than 3 times richer than J.P. Morgan, whose
wealth was perhaps $30 million. 43, 55
Astor was involved in the project to use Niagra Falls for hydroelectric power in 1893.
Westinghouse and Tesla proposed using their alternating current electricity in opposition to the Morgan and
Edison proposal using direct current electricity. Astor recommended Teslas alternating current. Westinghouse
and Tesla got the contract.
The World Fair was held in Chicago in 1893. Teslas friendship with Astor was solidified at the Fair where they
both had exhibits. Astor was also an inventor. Astor won a prize at the Fair for his pneumatic walkway.
John Jacob Astor IV

The alliance between Tesla and Astor began. Tesla began frequently inviting Astor to his New York laboratory
where he demonstrated many of his inventions. Astor had his own laboratory in the basement of his mansion.
Astor spent much of his time in his lab. 43, 58
Astor was nothing like the rich playboy image the press (such as the New York Times) consistently tried to
foist off on the public. After he was killed on the Titanic, an article was run in the New York Times detailing
his estate. In it, some interesting points were mentioned, which I have excerpted: (emphasis mine)
The simplicity of Col. Astors personal, intimate surroundings is one of the most forceful impressions gathered
from the appraisal. With a fortune of more than $87,000,000 and an income estimated at not less than
$3,000,000 a year, his immediate belongs, including wearing apparel, jewelry and dressing requisites, did not
foot up to more than $10,820.
.Seeking this more intimate man, attention must be directed to three rooms in the Fifth Avenue residence
which have been ignored in the newspaper reports of the appraisal and the existence of which was possibly
realised only vaguely by those who dined at Col. Astors table and danced in his ballroom.
Two of these rooms are in the basement, the third on the third floor. One basement room is set down in the
appraisers report as the laboratory. Its contents are valued at $1,000, none of the details being given.
Adjoining it is a bedroom

6/9/14 5:11:55 PM
The room on the third floor was Col. Astors library;on the bookshelves were no first or early editions or
bindings demanding special attention.
In this room and the laboratory in the basement Col. Astor spent much of his time. His friends regarded him
as a man with a serious turn of mind in matters relating to science and invention. 58
Astor mansion
Ava Willing was his wife, a narcissistic woman, she had married him for his money.
She was hard with her husband and children and at times vicious. 43
Tesla was the first to demonstrate the Wireless Transmitter/Receiver in St. Louis in 1893. He was the inventor
of the radio. In 1894, Tesla erects his first small radio station in his laboratory and begins his experiments in
radio technology.

Astor and Tesla Interest in Extraterrestrials

Both Inventors Interested in Providing Power Without Cost
1894 November approx - John Jacob Astor IV publishes A Journey Into Other Worlds; A Romance of the
Future in which he predicted that the world by the year 2000 would be populated by automobiles, airplanes,
weapons so terrible that war would be unthinkable, magnetic railways, space travel and television.
Inventions Astor envisioned included a picture telephone, an aeroplane with the ability to fly to Europe in one
day, an electric automobile, hidden phonographs by the police to record conversations of criminals, color
photography, a rain making device, the idea of colonizing the solar system and the understanding that the earth
would appear like a crescent moon when seen from outerspace (which it does, but how did he know that?
something to think about).
His book predicts solar and wind energy, wireless transmission of power, super-metals, electric automobiles,
linear motor trains, battery operated airplanes with screw propellers, advanced medicine with inoculations for
all sorts of diseases, traffic policemen checking auto speed with instant cameras, and weather control. He says
that Rainmaking is another subject removed from the uncertainties, and has become an absolute science.
It is interesting which of Astors revelations of technology were the most heavily suppressed. This one, for
example: advanced medicine with inoculations for all sorts of diseases, is an incredibly accurate summary
of where medicine should have gone.
Instead, we have the AMA (American Medical Association) standard, demonstrated as when in doubt, cut it
out, and its nightmare of medieval tortures posing as healing.
Without the domination of the jewish troublemakers ideas about healing, things would have been a whole lot
easier for the human race. But not to worry, their run of un-opposed power is at an end.
To give you an idea of how advanced Astors discussion of this was, only in the last 15 years or so, has there
been ANY official acknowledgement that diseases previously labelled as needing drugs and surgery, were
factually caused by bacteria, and could be cured by a simple innoculation of an inexpensive anti-biotic. This
was. the ulcer.
In 1981 Barry J. Marshall was training in internal medicine at the Royal Perth Hospital, in Western Australia,
when he became interested in incidences of spiral bacteria in the stomach lining. The bacteria were assumed to
be irrelevant to ulcer pathology, but Marshall and J. R. Warren, a histopathologist who had previously observed
the bacteria, reviewed the records of patients whose stomachs were infected with large numbers of these
bacteria. They noticed that when one patient was treated with tetracycline for unrelated reasons, his pain
vanished, and an endoscopy revealed that his ulcer was gone. Marshall spent the next 5 years trying to convince
the medical establishment of this simple fact that a bacteria called H. pylori was causing ulcers. They just
laughed him off. In 1986, he then demonstrated incontrovertible proof of this, by drinking H. pylori and giving
himself ulcers and then curing them with an anti-biotic. Another NINE YEARS went by before this treatment
was allowed on Joe Q. public. Marshall, is still amazed by it all. He said: 'Hundreds, even thousands of people
must have died from ulcers who wouldn't have.'"
In 1910 a man named Peyton Rous discovered the Rous sarcoma virus, and demonstrated that chickens infected
with it developed cancer. Over the years many other cancer viruses have been discovered in animals. And yet
Page -5-
Divide and Conquer
6/9/14 5:11:55 PM
until 1979, despite broad hints from the animal world, not a single human cancer was generally accepted as
infectious. Rous had been lucky: his chickens became sick only two weeks after infection. Human cancers
follow a more languorous course, which means that by the time symptoms show up, any infectious causation
may well be buried under a lifetime of irrelevant risk factors. Yet here we are over 30 years later, and this is still
being suppressed as the correct way to view cancer, let alone, how easy it is to cure it.
There are current, well-researched studies (just like the ulcer scenario) showing that Heart Disease and Cancer
are caused by infectious pathogens, but are we allowed to be treated for it in such a simple way? Oh, no. Still,
we are subjected with the only solution as being the macabre sawing and chopping and drugging program.
This is pure evil, and is motivated by the fact that millions of dollars would no longer fill the jewish
troublemakers coffers, if such simple cures were used! See my point on how accurate Astor was on this point,
and what a threat that was to them even then?
If you are interested, here is a link to an article entitled Antibiotics Against Heart Disease? http://www.theatlantic.com/past/docs/issues/99feb/germ2.htm
The next thing I find fascinating from Astors book, was how to make rain. This was also one of Astor's favorite
projects. He had an idea for creating rain by "pumping warm, moist air from the earth's surface into the upper
atmosphere,". In this area as well, Astor was blocked - by no less than the U.S. patent office. His patent
application was refused, and the reason given was that it was weather control. That stands out in glaring
hypocrisy, because that is exactly what the U.S. Government would later employ directly themselves, weather
control. The HAARP project, Chem-trails to seed the atmosphere, etc. etc. What you see here, in this blocking
of Astor on his idea to bring rain to places that desperately needed it, is the same old story. The jewish
troublemakers want a MONOPOLY. They are not interested in a true humanitarian advance such as helping
bring rain to areas of the world decimated by draught due to over-logging (and other things), No. That would
make such people less dependent on the jewish troublemakers and their inferior products and services. And
therein, lies the crux of the matter.
It is interesting where one of the first public attacks on his book came from. Certain circles around the Golden
Dawn were NOT amused by his novel, which stands out due to their much ballyhooed cultivation of such
things. However, this apparent hypocrisy makes perfect sense when you take the wide-view of The Golden
Dawn. It was a Jewish subversive organization, primarily operating on an agent-provocateur status, but some of
the members were also straight-out spies.
Astor, was most definitely NOT one of their boys. He was either Crypto-Jew nor Jesuit. He belonged to a
much older group which still exists to this day. As did President Andrew Jackson. So, this is why an insulting
review of Astors book came sliming out of the Golden Dawn quarter. A review of his book was published in
The Unknown World, a publication which only lasted 2 years and revolved around Arthur Edward Waite, who
was its editor. An anonymous writer reviews the book and says A special faculty is requisite for the
scientific romancer; it is possessed by Jules Vern.M Maitland.Lord Lytton; it is quite wanting in Mr.
Astor.
Arthur Edward Waite, or A.E. Waite as it is often abbreviated to, was one of the most prolific writers on
occultism and magic. He is best known today for having created the most popular tarot deck in the world -- the
Rider/ Waite Deck. He joined the Golden Dawn in January 1891, just 3 years before Astors book was
published.

Perhaps Astor's most impressive prediction in 1894, was the path that his "space-ship" Callisto, took on its
journey to Jupiter. Astor hypothesized that just as magnetism has a
repelling force, gravity should as well. He called the opposite of gravity, apergy. By harnessing apergy, the
astronauts in the story, aimed their ship [first] towards the sun, and then "change[d] their course to something
like a tangent to the earth, and [received] their final right direction [back out towards Jupiter] in swinging near
the moon... to bring apergy into play."
Exactly a century after writing this book, NASA actually did send a spacecraft, named the Galileo, on a voyage
along a remarkably similar trajectory, using Venus, instead of the moon as the pivot, for the swing-back out
towards Jupiter.
Astor talked about harnessing apergy, meaning anti-gravity, using it to propel spacecraft. He also refers to the
harnessing of anti-gravity as being a technology of the ancients.
Astors word apergy began to be associated with Keelys inventions, and an article about Keely was published
that same year entitled Apergy: Power Without Cost which explains it as the reverse counterpart of
gravitation. 43
Tesla was also interested in providing power without cost. He had demonstrated the transmission of electrical
energy without wires in 1891.
In February 1895 Tesla says, "If there are intelligent inhabitants of Mars or any other planet, it seems to me that
we can do something to attract their attention". Tesla made headlines in the New York dailies for his bold
prediction that he would "signal the stars," and Astor made the bookstores with his space traveling book. Astor
presented a copy of his new book to Tesla. The newspapers and magazines continued to promulgate the idea
that Mars was inhabited by beings possibly more intelligent than we. 55
Note:
Astor was correct about spacecraft. Extraterrestrial spacecraft are not propelled by fuel.
He is also correct about anti-gravity being a technology in use in ancient times. However, anti-gravity is not the
best word for it, it has to do with magnetism and magnetic drives. Evidence of its use in ancient times will be
discussed in Book 4 of this series, when Astor was in Egypt.

Morgan Fails To Get Control of Tesla Patent Rights

Tesla Lab Burned Down and His Inventions Stolen
Tesla Black Listed For Funding by the Major Financiers
Edward Adams, Alfred Brown and Tesla start the Nikola Tesla Company on 4 Feb 1895 to promote his new
inventions. The company had $5,000 in funding but they wanted $500,000. They advertised for funding but the
major financiers did not respond. Note that this is the same Edward Adams who was the driving force behind
the promotion of the giant hydroelectric power plant at Niagara. (Let There Be Light, Sinking Titanic Book 1)
Morgan had already orchestrated circumstances in Teslas life in order to force Tesla to be dependent on him
for financial backing. During an earlier period, when Tesla himself had millions from his AC generator royalty
payments and other earnings, Morgan wanted to woo Tesla with a deal that effectively gave Morgan majority
control over his patent rights and projects, but Tesla turned him down, telling Morgan that he had enough
money of his own to fund his projects. While returning to his hotel from that very meeting with Morgan,
however, Tesla was told that his laboratory had been burned to the ground.
J. P. Morgan
By early1895, Tesla was ready to transmit a signal 50 miles to West Point, New York.
He had also developed a generator that absorbed heat when liquefied air was re-gasified.
It was refrigeration and air conditioning technology. He was ready to file for a patent on that invention. On
March 13, 1895, his lab was burnt down, destroying all his equipment, models and inventions. But, as you will
see, they were not destroyed, they were taken the fire was simply a cover so as to make it appear like the
fire destroyed it all.
Immediately after the fire, Carl Von Linde, in Germany, filed "his" patent application for the exact same
process as the Tesla generator. The generator was used for storing beer and fruit. 55

After the fire Marconi stole Teslas work, which he couldnt figure out how to operate. The fire enabled
Marconi to file the first wireless telegraphy patent in England in 1896. His device had only a two-circuit system,
which some said could not transmit "across a pond." Later after Marconi figured out how to operate the stolen
Tesla equipment, he set up long-distance demonstrations, using a Tesla oscillator to transmit the signals across
the English Channel. 63
Guglielmo Marconi
Morgan was suspected as being behind the arson. In order to save face, Morgan was embarrassed by Tesla into
putting up the money to pay for the rebuilding of a new lab as an act of philanthropy. From that time forward,
however, other financial backers were not to be found. Morgan was powerful enough to black list Tesla among
the Eastern Establishment elites. Black listing and ostracization by officialdom and financiers lifted somewhat
after Morgans death, but generally continued to haunt Tesla for the rest of his life. 55
Tesla Does Experiments On Free Electricity

Tesla met with Astor on December 19, 1895. Astor said I am impressed with your endeavor, Mr. Tesla,
although, as I understand it, your latest inventions are yet to reach the point of being marketed. Nevertheless,
Ill speak to Mr. Adams. By all means, lets keep the door open.
Tesla wrote Astor the next day and said:
My dear Mr. Astor,

Adams would be only too glad to have you with us. We agreed that we would jointly provide from 500 to 100
shares of the Parent Company for yourself and Mr. Webb at the price of $95 a share of a par value of $100 each.
The Parent Company owns my patents.68
In late February 1896 Tesla takes a train to Colorado Springs to look over a prospective site for a new lab, and
to conduct some experiments. He has a colleague transmit a musical song on an autoharp through Pikes Peak to
his receiving equipment, which included another autoharp attuned to the first, four miles away on the other side
of the mountain. 68
The experiment was a success. Sunday magazine section of the World, March 8, 1896 announced this wireless
achievement, but also that the earth was imbued with free energy of unlimited amounts. Electricity would
be as free as the air. The end has come to telegraph, telephone companies, and other monopolieswith a
crash.
Jewish Oligarchy Engineers Spanish-American War

As a result of the "War of Currents", General Electric (J.P. Morgan) and Westinghouse went nearly bankrupt, so
in 1897, Tesla released Westinghouse from contract, providing Westinghouse a break from Tesla's patent
royalties. 43
William McKinley, backed by Morgan, gained ardent support from big business and won the presidential
election. He was sworn in March 4, 1897. 6

In the spring of 1897, near New York, Tesla erects a new and bigger radio station and sends radio signals over a
distance of more than 40 km. 43

In July 1897, Marconi formed his Wireless Telegraph and Signal Company in England.
It was later renamed the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company. He promptly started selling transmitters to
shipping companies, and, with that, stock in the company.
Tesla filed his radio patent application to the US Patent Office on 2 September 1897.
It disclosed a four-circuit system, having two circuits each at transmitter and receiver, and recommended that
all four circuits be tuned to the same frequency. This apparatus could be used for wireless communication. This
patent was granted on 20 March 1900.

The jewish oligarchy, including members of the IOBB in New Orleans, were making moves to dominate
countries in Latin and Central America, so the oligarchy could capitalize on the natural resources of those
countries. For example, Morgan owned the Santa Clara province in Cuba, where a particularly dark and fragrant
variety of tobacco is grown. 6, 80

An American warship, the U.S.S. Maine, was dispatched to Havana harbor. On February 15, 1898, it
mysteriously exploded and sank, causing the deaths of 260 men.

May 1898 was the start of the Spanish-American war. The war was brought on by the international bankers
making moves to take control of the exports of Central America. 6
One of Tesla's greatest inventions was a remote control robotic boat which he called the telautomaton. During
the Spanish-American War, he unveiled this boat at the Electrical Exposition, (which military reps attended)
held at Madison Square Garden in May 1898. He had previously displayed wireless motors before the Institute
of Electrical Engineers in 1892. He believed that the military would want things such as radio-controlled
torpedoes.
The boat, four-feet in length and three-feet high, was placed in a large tank in the center of the auditorium. By
means of a variety of transmitters and frequencies, the inventor could start, stop, propel, steer and operate other
features, such as put lights on or off.

Marconi demonstrated a wireless detonation system. By means of a bomb planted on board an enemy ship,
and a simple button placed in the hands of an operator, "Spanish ships" were blown to smithereens.
Many of the newspapers featured Marconi's wireless detonation system and ignored Tesla's invention.
Compared to Tesla's work, Marconis demonstration was small potatoes, but, was fully under the MorganSchiff cartel. 43
To illustrate just how hard this its nothing, and ridiculous was pushed:
In November of 1898, the Examiner-in-Chief of patents came to witness a demonstration of Tesla's
telautomaton before granting a patent, so "unbelievable" was the claim.
Quote from a book by Tesla, entitled My Inventions:
"I remember that when later I called on an official in Washington, with a view of offering the invention to the
Government, he burst out in laughter. Nobody thought then that there was the faintest prospect of perfecting
such a device."
Note:
Marconis wireless bomb detonation device was under the control of the Morgan-Schiff cartel and they were
engineering a war to take control of Latin and Central American countries. That device could have been used to
sink the U.S.S. Maine, to start the war.
Astor Secretly Funds Tesla Experiments In Free Electricity

Tesla had meetings with John Jacob Astor from February through May 1898, sometimes on his yacht, in his
continuing attempts to woo the financier. 43
On 10 January 1899 Astor agrees to invest in Tesla. Astor paid $100,000 for 500 shares in Nikola Tesla
Company. Astor bought the 500 shares without recording it in his books. Nicholas Biddle had access to Astors
books and was unaware that Astor funded Tesla.
When Mr. Biddle found out about it after Astor died, he was not pleased. In fact he was quite uncomplimentary
about the whole thing, and seemed to do his best to downplay it. I have excerpted the relevant parts of the New
York Times article from after Astor was killed, especially note that there is NO MENTION of what work Tesla
was doing, which is very revealing. Excerpts follow, emphasis mine: 58
Hidden away, too, in the list of stocks and bonds of the appraisers report is another indication of Mr. Astors
enthusiasm in matters scientific. The item enumerates 500 shares of stock in the Nikola Tesla Company, of
nominal value. Commenting on this investment, Nicholas Biddle, who was closely associated with Col. Astor
in his business affairs, had this to say:
Impossible to Sell.
This stock was not carried on Col. Astors books. It was purchased by Col. Astor under an agreement made
with Mr. Tesla personally, of which his office had no information. The stock has never paid any dividends, and
it is my understanding that the proceeds from the sales of the stock were used in certain experimental work
which has not developed into a paying industry, and in my judgement it would be impossible to sell this stock.

After Astors full support began, Tesla then moves into Astors hotel, the Waldorf Astoria, where he lived rentfree. 55, 58
Tesla begins high-voltage experiments in Colorado Springs, Colorado on 18 May 1899. He researches wireless
transmission and electricity - this is funded by John Jacob Astor IV in direct opposition to General
Electric/Marconi which are run by J.P. Morgan. 43
He immediately began building a massive high voltage laboratory with an extremely large Tesla coil resonance
transformer measuring over 52 feet in diameter. 43
Tesla had a future vision of free electrical power. Tesla's diary contains explanations of his experiments
concerning the ionosphere and the ground's currents. He proved that the earth was a conductor. He also
investigated atmospheric electricity. He produced artificial lightning with discharges of millions of volts, and
135 feet long. 6
Tesla erects a big, 200 kilowatt radio station and establishes wireless telegraphy at a distance of over 1000
kilometers. He also conducts successful experiments with wireless transmission of larger amounts of electric
power. He achieves frequencies of up to 20 million volts and invents a special apparatus, the "magnifying"
transmitter. 43

(image credit: 1899 photo, Dickenson V. Alley/Burndy Library, via nytimes.com)
Tesla constructed many Tesla coil resonance transformers in his lab and discovered the concept of tuned
electrical circuits. A separate and smaller Tesla coil resonance transformer that is tuned to the same high
frequency as the large high voltage Tesla coil resonance transformer will actually "receive" electrical energy
from the massive Tesla coil which acts as a "transmitter" of wireless electrical energy. Tesla was later
nominated for but declined the Nobel Prize in Physics for his experiments with tuned circuits using his large
high voltage high frequency Tesla coil resonance transformers. Nikola Tesla first logged these observations into

A "world system" for "the transmission of electrical energy without wires" that depends upon the electrical
conductivity of the earth was proposed, in which transmission in various natural media, with current that passes
between the two points, are used to power devices. 55
Note:
Even if you do not fully understand the scientific terminology and concepts, you can still get an idea of what
Tesla had in mind a system that transmitted electrical power through the air, without wires, to operate
electrical devices. This would have had an enormous impact, providing homes and electric automobiles with
free electrical power. Imagine the horror felt by the jewish troublemakers and their associates they would not
be able to sell their gasoline for cars or sell their electricity to every individual home.
Also in 1899, on June 6, John Jacob Astor and Edward Dean Adams are elected directors of the Cataract
Construction Company (Niagara Falls) Other directors are George Bowdoin, Charles F. Clark, Charles Lanier,
Joseph Laroque, D.O. Mills, William B. Randine, Francis Lynde Stetson, F.W. Whitridge and Edward A.
Wicks.100 So that is 2 companies and Tesla projects now, that Adams and Astor are together on.
Tesla Granted Radio Patent in the US
In 1899 Marconi traveled to the United States to supervise wireless reporting of the America's Cup yacht race
between the 'Columbia' [J.P. Morgans yacht] and the 'Shamrock'. The U.S. Navy invited him to demonstrate
wireless telegraphy between two ships that were 35 miles apart. 64
Tesla left Colorado Springs on 7 January 1900. 6 Astor was not around in the early part of 1900, Tesla can't get
ahold of him.
In February 1900, Westinghouse gives Tesla a loan for a few thousand dollars, because he is being tied up with
suits re the AC polyphase patents (Morgan again).
Teslas radio patent was granted by the US Patent Office on 20 March 1900.
1900 - Tesla wrote a 12,000 word article for the June issue of Century magazine about how to increase human
energy. He dealt with such things as evolution of the race, the possibility of future beings not having to eat,
the role of nitrogen in fertilizer, alternative energy sources, the fact that there are multiple worlds, telautomatics,
etc. He also was concerned with environmental issues such as air and water pollution.
Tesla sends a copy to Astor, including his wireless patent applications.
In a letter to Astor, Tesla said:
The patents give me an absolute monopoly in the United States not only for power purposes, but also for
establishing telegraphic communicationno matter how great the distance.
Tesla follows up this article with Talking With The Planets in the magazine Colliers.
Tesla still cant get ahold of Astor, so he writes a letter on August 24, 1900 and asks Is it possible that you should have something against me? Not hearing from you I cannot otherwise interpret

your silence. Astor responds saying he is glad to get his letter and will get back to him.
Either these letters are more forged additions to the Tesla papers, or it is purely a cover, ie: to make it look like
they are not in touch. I mean look at this guy, this is not a stupid man.
The letters do not align with the facts of Astors support of Tesla. In fact they were most definitely in touch.
But it was a dangerous alliance. Especially with Morgan around having them spied on. They couldnt send open
telegrams either, because Morgan owned Western Union and could easily have that line watched as well. And,
if someone would go so far as to burn down his lab, wellyou can imagine what theyd think about Tesla and
Astor allying.
Marconi's first patent application in America, filed on November 10, 1900, was turned down. Marconi's revised
applications over the next three years were repeatedly rejected because of the priority of Tesla and other
inventors. 55
Morgan Allegedly Funds Tesla

The authors who wrote biographies on the life of Nikola Tesla do not agree on the events regarding J.P. Morgan
funding Tesla:
Tesla had plans for building a facility for transmissions at Wardenclyffe, Long Island.
In November 1900 Tesla allegedly had meetings with Morgan and asked for $100,000 to erect a plant to
transmit messages across the Atlantic.
On December 10, 1900 he allegedly sent Morgan a letter outlining his work. Thereafter Morgan decided to fund
Tesla in the amount of $150,000.
On February 12, 1901, Tesla wrote a thank you note to Morgan:
How can I begin to thank you in the name of my profession and my own great generous man! My work will
proclaim loudly your name to the world. You will soon see that not only am I capable of appreciating deeply the
nobility of your action, but also of making your primarily philanthropic investment a hundred times the sum
you have put at my disposal in such a magamimous and princely way!
Tesla said that Morgans funding was primarily philanthropic. However, another Tesla biographer says that
Morgan received 51% of the company and also 51% of all present and future patents in wireless transmission
and lighting. Actually if its even true that Morgan gave him any money (which is questionable considering the
past relationship and Morgans history of vindictiveness), then perhaps this is another example of
embarrassing Morgan into giving him some more money, because of the burning down of his lab and his

devices showing up in the hands of Marconi and others after this.

March 1, 1901 - Tesla and Morgan allegedly sign a contract. 68
But, there is a problem with that allegation. Morgans signature on the contract does not match his
signature on other documents.
Morgans signature on a letter to Miss Stevens in 1851 -
Morgans alleged signature on the 1901 contract with Tesla -
73, 76
The FBI took Teslas papers right after he died and did not release them for a long time.
The above signatures not matching, raises some ugly possibilities of what may have been done to the Tesla
papers while they were in the hands of the U.S. Government additions, alterations that were forgeries.
March 3, 1901 the Long Island Democrat reported:
Nikola Tesla has purchased a 200-acre tract at Wardenclyffe for the establishment of a wireless telegraphy
plant. The land and improvements will cost $150,000.
Note:
Whether the Morgan funding was philanthropic or not, Morgan gave Tesla $150,000 to erect a plant to transmit
messages across the Atlantic. Tesla didnt tell Morgan the plant would be able to distribute free electricity to
anywhere in the world!
Tesla Builds Tower at Wardenclyffe

Morgan Learns The Tower Will Provide Free Electricity

Mr. Nikola Tesla, the world renowned scientist on Tuesday of this week, closed a contract for the immediate

6/9/14 5:11:55 PM
building of a wireless telegraph plant and electrical laboratory at Wardenclyffe, ...where on the 200 acres
recently acquired by Mr. Tesla, he will within thirty days, begin the erection of a plant, which when completed
will be the largest of its kind in the world. The power plant will be 350-horse power. 69
On December 12, 1901, Marconi for the first time transmitted and received signals across the Atlantic Ocean.
Otis Pond, an engineer then working for Tesla, said, "Looks as if Marconi got the jump on you." Tesla replied,
"Marconi is a good fellow. Let him continue. He is using seventeen of my patents." 64
1902 February - the Port Jefferson Echo reported:
...the Tesla improvements at Wardenclyffe have gone steadily forward. The power house... is 100 feet square
and divided into a boiler room, engine and dynamo room, machine shop and laboratory. The boilers, engines,
dynamo and other electrical equipment are being placed under the supervision of Westinghouse Electric
Company.
The tunnels, which were built under the great tower, were considered a great mystery.
A well was dug below the tower 120 deep and 12 square. Connected to the well were four brick-lined tunnels
nearly 100 feet in length.
The power house is completed... within a very brief period, he will be transmitting messages across the ocean
through his wonderful wireless system. 69
Note:
This part - The boilers, engines, dynamo and other electrical equipment are being placed under the supervision
of Westinghouse Electric Company.
Yet more evidence that this was not Morgans investment, he would NEVER have allowed this to be done by
Westinghouse, his arch-enemy he would have insisted that it be his company General Electric. Tesla would
have known this, so if he ever did get any money from Morgan, it was hush money pure and simple, and using
Westinghouse is much more consistent with where Teslas loyalties were... Astor and Westinghouse.
February 22, 1902 - the Port Jefferson Echo reported:

The immense wireless telegraph plant now being built at Wardenclyffe marks the beginning of the real war
between Marconi and Nikola Tesla. Marconi has so far found only one way to send messages by wireless
telegraphy - through the air. Tesla will try two methods. By means of his great tower he will send messages
through the air. By means of his great well he will send messages through the ground. It is the latter method that
Tesla thinks will achieve the greatest success. The principles on which Tesla will send wireless messages
through the ground is, as explained by a friend, that a straight line through the earth, say between New York
and London, is shorter than a line around the earth. His belief in it is so great that he has declared, in
confidence to his friends, that ten years from now Wardenclyffe will be the great telegraph and cable center of
America.
Tesla added an elaborate 187-foot steel tower to Wardenclyffe. With the tower, Tesla boasted that not only
could he distribute electric power anywhere in the world but also broadcast news, transmit telephone calls,

and send facsimile messages.

The Famous Tesla Tower erected in Shoreham, Long Island, New York was 187 feet high, the spherical top was
68 feet in diameter. The Tower, which was to be used by Nikola Tesla is his "World Wireless" was never
finished.
The August 1902 Babylon Signal stated:
the power house at Wardenclyffe occupies nearly three acres... Mr. Tesla asserted there was a similar power
house in Scotland. Tesla said We have been sending wireless messages for long distances from this station
for some time, but whether we are going into the telegraph field on a commercial basis I cannot say at present.
69
Tesla runs out of money in 1903. Morgan refuses to provide any additional funding after learning of Tesla's true
plans for Wireless Power Transmission (wireless transmission of electricity, which would have resulted in
people having free electricity).
In a letter to Morgan, Tesla admits he did not tell Morgan his true aim for the tower was a mark much higher
than that originally presented - that is, the wireless transmission of electrical power. Tesla and Morgan
exchange letters:

"If I would have told you such as this before, you would have fired me out of your office. Will you help me or
let my great work - almost complete - go to pots?"
Note: That is a very odd use of slang there. The expression is go to pot, not go to POTS. Perhaps this is yet
more evidence of an, inept in this case, forgery.
The answer July 14, 1903
N. Tesla, Esq.
"I have received your letter... and in reply would say that I should not feel disposed at present to make any
further advances."
J. P. Morgan
With such a reply from Morgan he left for the solace of his laboratory to conduct preliminary tests. That night,
and for several succeeding nights, the residents of Shoreham were astonished to see lightning-like flashes
emanating from the tower. At times the air was filled with blinding streaks which seemed to shoot off into the
darkness on some mysterious errand. When questioned about them the following day, neither Tesla nor his
workers would give any explanation.
In 1903, when Tesla realized that financial backing for Wardenclyffe would cease, he demonstrated lighteningtype flashes from his tower in Shoreham. The July 14th report from the New York Sun stated:
Teslas Flashes Startling, but he wont tell what he is trying for at Wardenclyffe. Natives hereabouts are
intensely interested in the nightly electrical display shown from the tall tower where Nikola is conducting his
experiments in wireless telegraph and telephony. All sorts of lightning were flashed from the tall tower and
poles last night.
For a time, the air was filled with blinding streaks of electricity, which seemed to shoot off into the darkness on
some mysterious errand. When interviewed, Tesla said The people about there, had they been awake instead
of asleep, at other times would have seen even stranger things. Some day, but not at this time, I shall make an
announcement of something that I never once dreamed of!
The fall of 1903 saw the onset of the "Rich Man's Panic," an aggravation which compounded Tesla's problem of
securing investment capital. Tesla exclaimed,
"My enemies have been so successful in representing me as a poet and visionary, that it is absolutely imperative
for me to put out something commercial without delay."
Most damaging of all, a whispering campaign had begun. "If Tesla's plan is such a good thing, why does not
Morgan see it through? He is the very last man to let a good thing go." 69
US Patent Office Violates Tesla Radio Patents

Marconi Given Radio Patents
In 1904, the U.S. Patent Office suddenly and surprisingly reversed its previous decisions and gave Marconi a
Page -19-
Divide and Conquer
6/9/14 5:11:55 PM
patent for the invention of radio. The reason for this has never been fully explained, but Marconi did have
powerful financial backing in the United States.
Tesla begins his fight as the inventor of radio. This would end with the Supreme Court ruling that Marconi
infringed on Teslas patents, and Tesla was recognized as the inventor of the radio. 64
On May 4, 1905, the fundamental patents on alternating current motors and electric power transmission which
he had sold to the Westinghouse Company expired. This was the end of royalty payments from Westinghouse to
Tesla. Tesla cannot pay his workers, forcing him to close operations at Wardenclyffe.
Notice was then received by Tesla from Colorado Springs that a suit had been instituted against him for nonpayment of electricity furnished to his experimental station in 1899. Earlier, the city had sent a bill for water
furnished the station. At the same time another notice was received that the caretaker at his laboratory there was
bringing suit for unpaid balance of wages due. Tesla ordered that the station should be sold for value of lumber.
Tesla has to close his lab. 55
Brooklyn Times June 1905 reported:
Mr. Tesla claims that it is today possible to communicate between any two points on earth, using the earth as a
conductor. From his plant at Wardenclyfe he could run the electric motors and the big printing presses in
the Brooklyn Times office.
County Review June 23, 1905 reported:
This one gathers from occasional meetings with the Wizard of Wardenclyffe. The inventor positively asserts
that there are many infringements of his patents in daily use in connection with wireless telegraphy. He says
he has met with an immense amount of opposition along various lines and that difficulties which would have
put most men out of the race have been successfully overcome. 69
Tesla and Astors friend, Stanford White, is killed on June 25, 1906. White was shot by Henry Thaw, the son of
Pittsburgh coal and railroad baron William Thaw.
During the finale, "I Could Love A Million Girls", Henry Thaw fired three shots at close range into Stanford
White's face, killing him.
There were 2 trials, but at the first, the jury was deadlocked: at the second, where he pled insanity, Evelyn
testified. Thaw's mother told Evelyn that if she would testify that Stanford White abused her and that Harry only
tried to protect her, she'd receive a divorce from Harry Thaw and one million dollars in compensation. She did
just that, and performed in court wonderfully: he was found not guilty by reason of insanity. Evelyn got the
divorce, but not the money. Thaw testified that he had had a "brainstorm", meaning a moment of temporary
insanity.
The Jewish Troublemakers Orchestrate Financial Panic in 1907

Panic Used To Cut Off Funding For Tesla
Page -20-
Divide and Conquer
6/9/14 5:11:55 PM
The financial panic of 1907 was caused by the jewish oligarchy and their financial associates. They used it to
takeover businesses that were their competitors. For further details see Book 1 of this series.
Among the large New York trust institutions the youngest is a company incorporated in 1907. This is the Astor
Trust Company at 389 Fifth Avenue. Morgan, through Baker and Peabody, takes control of Astor's money.
60
Astor was friends with Charles W. Morse. He had also funded Morse in the amount of $110,000. 70
In 1907 Nikola Tesla had just announced a major research effort into wireless electrical transmission and was
waiting for substantial financing from Mercantile Bank, which was largely owned by Charles W. Morse.
Mercantile Bank was one of the first banks that Morgan had allowed to go under in the financial panic of 1907.
60
Thus we see that the 1907 financial panic was also used for cutting funding to Tesla. This should not be
underestimated in its importance. Further, it should be noted that John Jacob Astor, (due to the fact that his
fortune was basically controlled by these very same jewish troublemaker bankers), hid his financial and moral
support of Tesla as best he could. It was Astor that arranged the financial help for Tesla through his friend
Charles W. Morse.
With Astor Assistance Tesla Continues Inventing

Tesla Invents Fuel-less Airplane That Is Propelled by Ground Transmitters
In February 1908, Tesla signs a contract with American and British Manufacturing Company. Astor knew the
company president, George W. Hoadley. 71
Tesla begins experiments with a new principle of power transmission from fluids and to fluids. From 1908 to
1910, Tesla experiments with pumps, compressors, blowers and steam and gas turbines.
Tesla writes a letter to Astor June 8, 1908:
My dear Colonel,
I am now ready to take an order from you for a self-propelled flying machine, either of the lighter or heavierthan-air type.
Yours sincerely, Nikola Tesla
Astor remained one of Teslas most generous investors. Also, Tesla lived in Astors hotel without paying rent
the Waldorf-Astoria. 55
1909 March 9 Tesla (with some backing from Astor and his friends) starts the Tesla Propulsion Company
with Joseph Hoadley and Walter H. Knight. With stock capitalized at $1 million, it was announced in Electrical
World that turbines were being sold to the Alabama Consolidated Coal & Iron Company. Tesla also set up the
Tesla Ozone Company, capitalized at $400,000 (made ozone).
1909 March 22 Tesla sends a letter to Astor:
My dear Col. Astor:

I was very glad to know from the papers that you have returned to the city and hasten to tell you that my steam
and gas turbine, pump, water turbine, air compressor and propeller have all proved a great success. In the
opinion of very competent men these inventions will create an enormous revolution. My gas turbine will be the
finest thing in the world for a flying machine because it makes it possible to attain as much as 4 or 5 HP for
each pound of weight. I have been hard at work on a design of the flying machine and it is going to be
something very fine. It will have no screw propeller or inclined plane, rudder or wane - in fact nothing of the
old, and it will enable us to lift much greater weights and propel them in the air with ever so much greater speed
than has been possible so far. We are making up an automobile in which these new principles are
embodied and I am also designing a locomotive for a railroad and am adapting my new propulsion scheme to
one of the biggest Atlantic liners. All this information is confidential. I am merely writing knowing that you will
be pleased with my success.
With kind regards, I am, Sincerely yours, Nikola Tesla
Another Tesla invention was a plane that had no fuel, but rather derived its energy from ground
transmitters. There is speculation that Tesla constructed a car which was powered by a wireless
transmitter situated near Niagara Falls, but there is no proof that such a device was actually constructed. 55
In 1909 a distress call sent out on wireless was responsible for the rescue of over sixteen hundred passengers
and crew aboard the White Star Liner 'Republic'. Marconi wins the Nobel Prize for Radio. Tesla deeply resented
the fact that Marconi got the prize, and not himself. 3
John Hays Hammond Sr. resigns from the Guggenheim copper coalition, and ran as VP for Taft in 1908, but
lost. (Guggenheim is a member of Temple Emanu-el) Hammond Sr. was very interested in inventers, and
invited many of them to his home, including Tesla. His son, Jack, studied Teslas inventions and began his own
experimentations, with a boat steering mechanism and an engine control for a boat.
Jack asked his father to arrange a meeting with Tesla. Tesla meets with Jack on 26 September 1909. Jack
requested that Tesla send his patent information on wireless control of machinery, which he did. Next, Jack has
stolen use of it and Tesla threatens to sue him. A partnership was then formed between them, with Hammond
Sr. footing the bill. 55
Tesla invents a new steam turbine with extraordianary efficiency and economy in 1911. 72

1912 Summer - The Tesla laboratory lay abandoned for many years. As part of their judgment against Tesla
for $23,500 - Westinghouse, Church, Kerr & Company removed the machinery from the building. 69
Tesla and George Westinghouse were friends. When Westinghouse nearly went bankrupt in 1897 Tesla released
Westinghouse from contract, providing Westinghouse a break from Tesla's patent royalties. But Westinghouse
was taken over by Morgan in 1907 and after that the Westinghouse company was used to attack Tesla.
1913 Jack Hammond ends the partnership with Tesla. Jack makes all the money on the remote controlled
boat, which Tesla had perfected. 55
Jack Hammonds father was John Hays Hammond Sr., who worked for Guggenheim. Guggenheim was a
member of Temple Emanu-el. His wife was Floretta Seligman, daughter of James Seligman, the New York
banker. Joseph Seligman was president of Temple Emanu-el.
1913 January/February - Congressional Pujo Committee hearings:
Morgan is in control of the Astor Trust Company.

George Boldt was the proprietor of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. Tesla signs over the deed to Wardenclyffe to
Boldt in 1915 to pay a $20,000 debt. This proves Tesla was living at Astors hotel for free, while Astor was still
alive. It was Teslas belief that the Waldorf would hold the property until he could settle his debts. However, it
was sold before he could redeem it. 55, 69
Tesla files a lawsuit against Marconi in 1915. The patent fight would last for 29 years. Tesla vs. Marconi is
ultimately resolved in Tesla's favor. 69
March 26, 1916 the Brooklyn Daily Eagle reported:
Wardenclyffe had been transferred to Lester S. Holmes, a Manhattan lawyer, who purchased the laboratory
along with 176 acres, in foreclose, as a business proposition. He had no intention of using it for the same
purposes Tesla did.
1916 - Tesla declares bankruptcy. He owed back taxes, was penniless, living in poverty, on credit, at the
Waldorf-Astoria. 69
In April 1917 Bankers Trust acquired the Astor Trust Company. The organization became a member of the
Federal Reserve system in October.

Tesla Creations Destroyed -Tesla Dies In Poverty

Government Raid Takes Tesla Research Papers, Declares Them Top Secret
Supreme Court Rules Tesla Invented Radio
After Wardenclyffe, Tesla built the Telefunken Wireless Station in Long Island. Some of what he wanted to
achieve at Wardenclyffe was achieved with the Telefunken Wireless. It was torn down by the Marines in 1917,
because it might be used by German spies.
On July 4, 1917 Boldt had the Wardenclyffe tower torn down. He used the money from the salvage to recoup
some of the funds he said Tesla owed to the Waldorf-Astoria.
Had Astor not died on the Titanic, Wardenclyffe would not have been destroyed and Tesla would have
continued to live at the Waldorf on the good graces of his benefactor. 55

Note:
There is a historical pattern of the vindictive bankers, wherein they destroy the house and other creations of
anyone who significantly opposed them. Here they go again, now theyre destroying Teslas creations.
In May 1919, Tesla writes an article. Even if you dont understand the scientific terms and ideas, the important
thing is his inventions were stolen and copied and secretly used, without giving him credit for it.

Especially note these parts:

This is Guglielmo Marconi, that Tesla is referring to so tongue-in-cheek.

200 years before a message would be flashed across the Atlantic and he even accepted stolidly congratulations

But I cannot help thinking how much better it would have been if the ingenious men, who have originated
these systems, had invented something of their own instead of depending on me altogether.

At age 75, Tesla is honored by being on the cover of Time Magazine in 1931.
The Court of Claims invalidates 15 out of 16 of Marconi's Patent claims in 1935. Tesla is acknowledged as the
prior inventor on these portions of Marconi's patent. The case is eventually decided in favor of Tesla by the US
Supreme Court in 1944.
Tesla dies penniless in the Hotel New Yorker on January 7, 1943. The FBI orders the Office of Alien Property
to seize Tesla's papers and possessions although he had been a US citizen since 1891. His papers were declared
to be top secret. These were eventually inherited by Tesla's nephew, Sava Kosanovich, and are now housed in
the Nikola Tesla Museum in Belgrade, Serbia.
Raid after his death:
Dr. John G. Trump was the main government official that went over Tesla's secret papers after his death in
1943. At the time, Dr. Trump was a well-known electrical engineer serving as a technical aide to the National
Defense Research Committee of the Office of Scientific Research & Development, Technical Aids, Div. 14,
NTRC (predecessor agency to the CIA's Office of Scientific Intelligence).
At the time of his death, Tesla had been working on the Teleforce weapon, or 'death ray,' that he had
unsuccessfully marketed to the US War Department. It appears that Teleforce was related to his research into
ball lightning and plasma, and was conceived as a particle beam weapon. The US government did not find a
prototype of the device in the safe.
After the FBI was contacted by the War Department, his papers were declared to be top secret. J. Edgar Hoover
declared the case most secret, because of the nature of Tesla's inventions and patents. One document stated that
"he is reported to have some 80 trunks in different places containing transcripts and plans having to do with his
experiments".
Tesla is awarded Patent for Radio in 1944. The US Supreme Court confirms that Marconis patents infringed
upon Tesla's patents. 64
Summary
The greatest inventor in history dies in poverty while the jewish oligarchy and their selected few associates
make billions yearly off of his inventions. The financial threat to them that was posed by Astor and Teslas
ideas for providing free electricty - was over.
Everyone continues to pay high gasoline prices for their cars and pay for electricty in their homes. Also, electric
cars do not emit noxious gases into the atmosphere like gasoline cars do. Once again, all humanity has been
harmed by the self-serving business practices of these specific jewish troublemakers and their similar-minded
associates.
Here is some of their mission statement as given at Temple Emanu-El's website:
The Jewish people has a mission to humankind, a mission ordained of God...
Page -26-
Divide and Conquer
6/9/14 5:11:55 PM
This mission requires that the people born or adopted in the covenant of Abraham must persuade the entire
human family, through teaching and example, that the One and Only God can be worshipped in holiness only as
we human beings serve each other with love. The mission of Israel will not have been fulfilled until
righteousness and peace prevail everywhere for everyone.
More flowery words, but their vicious actions do not match their nice-sounding words.
A wolf covering himself with a sheepskin, is still a wolf.

Astor financial threat to jewish troublemakers in Central America

Ruining Astor
President Jackson Defeats the Bankers US Government Out of Debt
Panics & Wars Used to Get US Government Back In Debt to Jewish Bankers
President Andrew Jackson took down the bankers system in the United States and got the country out of debt.
After Jackson was no longer President in 1838, the jewish oligarchy continued to make moves towards getting
the United States under their control.
The Independent Order of Bnai Brith, a Jewish Scottish Rite Freemasonry lodge, was formed in New York in
1843. An alternate name for I.O.B.B. is the New World Order.
The same people then formed Temple Emanu-el in New York. These were headquarters for the jewish oligarchy
that has goals for domination and control of all humanity.
Some of their moves to get the US government back in debt to the jewish bankers were their orchestrated
financial panics and wars, such as the civil war that began in 1861.
When the U.S. Civil War broke out in 1861, railway bonds, mainly distributed by Jewish bankers in Europe,
served as a means of payment for munitions bought in Europe. The Speyer, Stern, and Seligman New York
banking houses all dealt in railway shares. 41
Joseph Seligman was president of Temple Emanu-el.
Another example was the orchestrated financial panic of 1893 forcing the US government to borrow
$65,000,000 in gold from banker JP Morgan, an agent for the Rothschilds.

Honduras and Costa Rica Loan Scam

Loan Scam Brokered By Bischoffsheim & Goldschmidt
Honduras and Costa Rica Default On Loans
Page -2-
The Dark Knights
6/9/14 5:12:44 PM
Central America countries

In 1825 a loan was issued in London for the Federal States of Central America. The Republic of Honduras
portion of the loan to be paid back was 27,200 pounds. By 1867 the Honduras had been forty years in default
on its portion.
From 1867 to 1870, the Honduras would obtain three additional much larger loans and that was part of the
scam, since Honduras was unable to pay off the smaller loan in the last 40 years, it is hard to imagine how the
State could have entered into such a liability, or how any issuing house could have had the temerity to put it
before the public.
The financial agent representing Honduras in obtaining these loans was Don Carlos Gutierrez. Bonds were
issued as the means to obtaining the loans. These bonds were sold to investors in London and Paris. The jewish
bankers Bischoffsheim, Goldschmidt & Co. was contracted to sell the bonds. Another person assisted in selling
these bonds - Charles Joachim Lefevre, agent for Rothschilds.
Although Honduras would default on the loans, Bischoffsheim, Goldschmidt & Co. and Charles Lefevre
received their sizeable commissions and more. For example, in selling just 408,460 worth of the bonds,
Lefevre, together with Bischoffsheim, Goldschmidt - received 51,852 in commission for doing so.
The first contracted loan was sold at the London stock exchange in 1867, the second was issued in Paris in
1868, and the third negotiated at the London stock exchange in 1870.
All of the loans were for building the first section of an Interoceanic railroad, the first section being 56 miles
Page -3-
The Dark Knights
6/9/14 5:12:45 PM
long. The first section was eventually completed but the railroad remained idle and useless since the other
sections were not built.
All of the loans were secured by the railway, railway revenues, and by a first mortgage on all the domains and
forests of the State of Honduras.
After the first two loans were obtained, a third loan was sought, and a fraud was committed to encourage
investors to take it. A statement was published in a London newspaper that two ships had arrived in the West
India Docks from Truxillo (Honduras) with cargoes of mahogany consigned to Messrs. Bischoffsheim and
Goldschmidt on account of the Honduras Railway Loan, and that two others were loading at Truxillo with
similar cargoes on the same account. These cargoes were not cut by the Honduran government. It had bought
them from timber merchants, and they were found to be of most inferior quality. The purchase of these cargoes
and the announcement of their arrival, were intended to induce, and did induce, the public to believe that the
Honduran forests were providing means for paying the interest upon the loan.
With the help of this fraud, the 1870 Honduras 10 per cent loan for 2,500,000 pounds was successfully issued.
The total of the loans made to Honduras was 5,398,570 pounds. The British bondholders were owed 4,800,000
pounds of that amount. Honduras was now deeply in debt to British and French bondholders, but its income was
only 300,000.
While 4,800,000 had been paid to the financial agents of Honduras through Messrs. Bischoffsheim and
Goldschmidt, only 562,000 was applied to the construction of the railway. The rest is lost sight of. The railway
is in existence, but it is abandoned - it is useless; and as to the forests, not one piece of timber from the
Honduras forests has ever come to Britain.
In November, 1870 Don Carlos Gutierrez acted for Costa Rica to obtain two loans. Bischoffsheim and
Goldschmidt were again contracted for these loans. He introduced a loan of 1,000,000, for which he received
720,500. In 1872 he introduced a loan for 2,000,000, or rather the State of Costa Rica authorized it, and a sum
of 1,200,000 was obtained; so that the State has obtained altogether the sum of 2,000,000. All the amount that
we can find to have been sent to Costa Rica of that sum is 926,000; the rest has been detained from going
there.
Honduras and Costa Rica defaulted on the loans. 42, 97, 98, 99

"If honesty were among these qualifications, it is obvious that Messrs. Bischoffsheim & Goldschmidt, and Mr.
Charles Joachim Lefevre would not be eligible."
Beginning Of The 1000% Profit Banana Business

In 1870, Lorenzo Dow Baker, a Cape Cod sea captain, anchored his schooner in Jamaica, and came across some
bananas when he was shopping for food. He purchased 160 unripe bunches of bananas in Jamaica for a shilling
a bunch and, after ten days sailing, sold them in Jersey City for $2 each.
In 1871, one of Captain Baker's first customers, was a 21 year old produce dealer named Andrew Preston.
Preston had handbills printed up extolling the virtues of the new fruit.
In 1871, Minor Cooper Keith joined his brothers and his uncle, Henry Meiggs, in a railroad building project in
Costa Rica. Meiggs had built railroads in Peru, and had obtained a contract with the Costa Rican government to
build a railroad from the Caribbean port of Limn to the capital at San Jos.
The first twenty-five miles of the railroad had to be constructed in jungle conditions, and the workers died by
the thousands from accidents and tropical diseases. Keith's uncle and brothers died, leaving Keith in charge of
the project. The railroad's reputation for killing its workers made it impossible to hire enough local labor, so
Page -5-
The Dark Knights
6/9/14 5:12:45 PM
Keith recruited convicts from New Orleans. Only 25 of the 700 convicts hired survived the construction and
returned to New Orleans.
In 1873, Minor Cooper Keith planted banana trees in the railroad's right of way in the province of Limn, in
order to cut food costs for his workers. Midway through the project Keith realized that passenger revenue would
never pay off the railroad's debt. He began exporting bananas. 44 (The banana companies get a 1000%
markup/profit on bananas.)
Note:
Minor Cooper Keith became a major figure in Costa Rican society in the 1890s; he married Cristina Castro, the
daughter of a national President, and worked as the main negotiator of the Costa Rican foreign debt with
English banks. He expanded his banana business into Columbia (which then included Panama).
Captain Baker started a partnership with Andrew Preston and some investors in 1885 and called it the Boston
Fruit Company. 44
1889 Salvador DAntoni was a smuggler and gun runner operating off the northern coast of Honduras.
DAntoni brought a shipment of bananas to Joseph Vaccaro who was a fruit distributor in New Orleans.
Vaccaro and DAntoni, both Sicilians, then began importing large cargoes of bananas, coconuts and oranges.
In order to gain working capital for railroad building, Vaccaro enlisted the help of local merchants who put up
cash and their land in return for shares of the newly formed Vaccaro Brothers and Company. By 1903 the
company was earning huge profits and the investors began demanding their rightful share. Vaccaro ordered the
towns city hall burned down, destroying the records of land ownership and business agreements.

Valentine Establishes Mining Company and Bank in Honduras

The President of Honduras, Marco Aurelio Soto, offered companies that invested in the mine in San Juancinto a
20 year exemption from all taxes. Washington S. Valentine, an American entrepreneur in Honduras, found the
offer attractive. In 1880, Valentine and other New York investors, formed the New York & Honduras Rosario
Mining Company. Valentine was the major owner of the company.
Marco Aurelio Soto, was a major shareholder in the mining company. One of his sons married a daughter of
Washington Valentine. 6, 86
The mining firm took a mine in San Juancito, near Tegucigalpa, and in the next decade produced three million
dollars in silver and gold. By 1900 it had more than 1000 workers. Between 1882 and 1954, the New York and

promulgated in 1895, and Bonilla was elected to a four-year term. Bonilla's administration revised civil codes
and improved communications. Bonilla also began an effort to resolve the long-standing boundary dispute with
Nicaragua. 6
On 24 September 1894 A contract is signed in Honduras that leases the First Section of the Interoceanic
Railway to W.S. Valentine for ten years. 42
1894 The British government and the Rothschilds were very involved with each other.
The British Empire League was formed in London in 1894 in order to support the ideology of British
imperialism and to promote loyalty to and the unity of the British Empire. Lord Rothschild was a vice-president
in the British Empire League. 1, 6
J.P. Morgans father, Junius Morgan, headed a company in England that closely worked with the Rothschilds George Peabody and Company.
Honduras had defaulted on their loan to the British bondholders. The loan was secured by the First Section of
the Interoceanic Railway, railroad revenues, and forests of Honduras.
But, the jewish bankers needed a way to enforce the agreement on Honduras.
Washington Valentine was infringing on the pledged security for the British loans. In the future the British
would start filing formal protests about this to the Honduras President.
The jewish oligarchy, including members of the IOBB in New Orleans, were making moves to take control of
Latin America and Central America so the oligarchy could capitalize on the natural resources of those
countries.
Revolutions would be engineered and financed to overthrow Presidents in Latin and Central America who were
uncooperative with the jewish oligarchy. Also, the US military was going to be used for the same purpose.
J.P. Morgan was an agent for the Rothschilds, a jewish international banking family. Morgan owned the Santa
Clara province in Cuba, where a particularly dark and fragrant variety of tobacco is grown. 6, 80

So, in Cuba, the revolutionary of choice to be used, was Jos Mart, who continued to advocate Cuban
financial and political autonomy even in exile.
In early 1895, after years of organizing, Mart launched a three-pronged invasion of the island. The plan called
for one group from Santo Domingo, one group from Costa Rica, and another from the United States
Page -14-

6/9/14 5:12:45 PM
(preemptively thwarted by U.S. officials in Florida) to land in different places on the island and provoke an
indigenous revolution. While the grito de Bare (as their call for revolution continues to be called) was
successful, the expected revolution was not the grand show of force Mart had anticipated. A quick victory was
not obtained, so the revolutionaries settled in to fight a protracted guerilla campaign.
The Spanish response was swift and decisive. Cnovas del Castillo, the prime minister of Spain at the time,
announced that the Spanish nation is disposed to sacrifice to the last peseta of its treasure and to the last drop
of blood of the last Spaniard before consenting that anyone snatch from it even one piece of its sacred territory.
He ordered General Arsenio Martnez de Campos, a distinguished veteran of the war against the previous
insurrection in Cuba, to quell the revolt. Camposs method of containing the revolt earned him ridicule in the
Spanish press. So, General Campos was replaced by General Valeriano Weyler y Nicolau, a soldier who had
proven himself able to quash rebellions in the colonies. Nicolaus strategy was to deprive the insurgency of
weaponry, supplies and assistance by ordering the residents of some Cuban districts to relocate themselves near
the military headquarters in what were termed reconcentration camps. While this strategy was brutally effective
at slowing the spread of rebellion, it had the unwelcome effect of stirring indignation in the United States.
Between 1895-1898, Joseph Pulitzer of the New York World and William Randolph Hearst of the New York
Journal played up news of Spanish atrocities in Cuba and of Spain's use of concentration camps and brutal
military force to quash the Cubans' rebellion.
Pulitzer and Hearst drew the nation into the Spanish-American War with sensationalist stories or outright lying.
Hearst became a war hawk after a rebellion broke out in Cuba in 1895. Stories of Cuban virtue and Spanish
brutality soon dominated his front page. Some of the alleged atrocities were fictional.
Example:
Male Spanish officials strip search an American woman tourist in Cuba looking for messages from rebels; front
page from Hearst
These tactics were employed by the newspapermen to turn American public opinion towards war, utilizing the
publics natural inclination to support Cubas revolution towards being a free country. American public opinion
against Spain became heated, creating a demand for war.
This was all engineered due to the fact that the U.S. had important economic interests that were being harmed
by the prolonged conflict. Shipping firms that relied heavily on trade with Cuba suffered huge losses as the
conflict continued unresolved. Other U.S. business concerns, specifically those who had invested in Cuban

sugar, looked to the Spanish to restore order to the situation.
6/9/14 5:12:45 PM
Actually, Spain was in the way of getting the Caribbean countries under the control of the jewish oligarchy. It
was going to take more military strength than the revolutionaries had, to deal with Spain. It was going to take
the strength of the US military to get Spain out of these countries. Thus the newspapers were used to gain
support from the American public for a war with Spain.
Tesla had been working with Westinghouse to provide alternating current electricity to consumers. They were in
competition with J.P. Morgans General Electric Company. Morgan wanted to woo Tesla with a deal that
effectively gave Morgan majority control over his patent rights and projects, but Tesla turned him down. While
returning to his hotel from that very meeting with Morgan, however, Tesla was told that his laboratory was
burnt down, destroying all his equipment, models and inventions. This was done March 13, 1895.
But they were not destroyed, they were taken the fire was simply a cover so as to make it appear like the fire
destroyed it all. Immediately after the fire Carl Von Linde, in Germany, filed "his" patent application for the
exact same process as the Tesla generator. And, using Teslas radio equipment, Guglielmo Marconi obtained a
patent in England for radio technology. 55 See Section 1 and 2 of this series for details.

Honduras Syndicate Establishes A Bank In Honduras
In 1895 Policarpo Bonilla was elected to a four-year term as President of Honduras.

1895 December 24 - The Contract of Lease of 1894 with W.S. Valentine was transferred to the Honduras
Railroad Company - a New Jersey Corporation, formed by: Washington S. Valentine, George S. Scott, Barret H.
Van Auken, Jr., James B. Houston, J. Dobson Good, James T. Worthington, Stillman Gray, and Charles H.
Johnson.
1896 March 19 - Contract with the Honduras Railroad Company for the construction of the
Interoceanic Railroad and settlement of the External Debt.
This Claim is the result of the following Contracts which the Government of Honduras made for the operation
and reconstruction of the First Section of the Interoceanic Railway, the construction of Sections Second and
Third, and the settlement of the Inter-Oceanic Railway Bonds - commonly called The External Debt.
1896 - March 28 - Appointment of George I. Scott, of New York, as Financial Agent of Honduras to arrange the
External Debt.
1897 March 27 Contract with the Honduras Syndicate for the construction of the Interoceanic Railway,

The Additional Article to the Contract of 1897 with the Honduras Syndicate reads as follows:
The Honduras Railroad Company, through its General Agent, W.S. Valentine, agrees that all its interests in the
present Lease of the First Section of the Railway from Port Cortes to La Pimients shall be effectively transferred
to the Syndicate, under terms agreed upon between said Company and the Syndicate, and in consequence
thereof it accepts the responsibilities incurred by the leased Section, likewise the Leasing Contract itself, on the
terms specified in this Agreement.
It further declares that the Honduras Railroad Company not having fulfilled the obligations imposed upon it by
the Concession which it obtained from the government, within the past few years, approved by Legislative
Decree No. 76, said Contract is hereby annulled, and by virtue thereof there remain to said Company no rights
under it. 42
William McKinley, backed by Morgan, gained ardent support from big business and won the presidential
election. He was sworn in March 4, 1897. 6 See Section 1 of this series for details.

1897 April 5 Commercial Bank of Honduras, as per Contract, gets established with 500,000 in GOLD.
Note:
After Astor died, an article regarding Astors estate appears in the New York Times:

Appraisement of Estate Reveals Astors Personality
Two hundred and fifty shares of the Commercial Bank of Honduras, of a par value of $2,500. The charter of
that bank has been revoked by the Government of Honduras. They have no assets. It also has been carried on the
books of Col. Astor as valueless for some years.

This move by Astor flew right into the teeth of the plans the jewish oligarchy had for Central America. He was
infringing on "their territory" and taking away "their business" with the establishment of a bank for the
collection of Custom Duties. If allowed to successfully continue in Honduras, Astor could have branched out
into the other Caribbean countries. The thought was too horrible to contemplate. Thus the jewish oligarchy
made moves towards taking control, starting with the Spanish-American war.
Spanish-American War
1898 January 1 - President McKinley threatens to consider recognizing Cubas belligerent status, and thus
allowing the legal rearming of Cuban insurgents by U.S. firms. He sent Stewart L. Woodford to Madrid to
negotiate an end to the conflict.
Prxedes Sagasta, an open advocate of Cuban autonomy, was now Prime Minister of Spain. Sagasta had
replaced the more hard-line Prime Minister of Spain, Cnovas del Castillo, who had been assassinated.
(Castillo was refusing to give up Cuba.)
Negotiations between Woodford and Sagasta went fairly smoothly and Cuban autonomy was set to begin on
January 1, 1898.
1898 January 11 Eleven days after the Cuban autonomous government took power a small riot erupted in
Havana, ignited by Spanish officers offended by the persistent newspaper criticism of General Weylers
policies. Against the advice of the Consul-General in Havana, Fitzhugh Lee, McKinley sent the USS Maine to
Havana to ensure the safety of US citizens and interests. 6
The USS Maine set anchor in Havana harbor on January 25, 1898. Spain responded by having an armored
cruiser, the Vizcaya, anchor off shore of New York City.
This is considered to be the mark of American entry into world affairs.
Deploying the Maine to Havana was only one part of a larger, global deployment of US naval power. As the
Maine left Florida a large part of the North Atlantic fleet was moved to Key West and the Gulf of Mexico.
Additionally, others were moved just off shore of Lisbon. And still others were moved to Hong Kong, as well as
the Phillippines. 6
Note:
It is important to understand that the largest part of the fleet was moved to take direct military control of the
Caribbean - Latin America and Central America.
Starting from 1898, over the next thirty-five years, the U.S. military intervened in Latin America and Central
America twenty-eight times; in Cuba, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mexico, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, El
Salvador, Panama, and Guatemala.
The U.S. military has been reduced to the metaphoric role of Vinnie the knee-breaker, working on behalf of the
Jewish oligarchy to enforce their banking/business interests in other countries.

On February 15, 1898, the USS Maine mysteriously exploded and sank, causing the deaths of 266 men. 6

Note:
At the time of the mysterious sinking of the USS Maine, the Morgan-Schiff cartel had access to a radiocontrolled detonation device, used to explode a bomb from a distance.
That device could have been used to sink the U.S.S. Maine, to start the war. Details are given in Section 2 of
this series.
The USS Maine sank in the harbor after suffering a massive explosion. The news of the explosion and the death
of 266 sailors stirred popular US opinion and large segments of Congress into demanding a swift belligerent
response. The Navys investigation, made public on March 28, concluded that the ships magazines were ignited
when an external explosion was set off under the ships hull. This revelation poured fuel on popular US
indignation and strengthened the hand of those officials already gearing up for war.
Spains investigation of the circumstances surrounding the explosion had come to the opposite conclusion: that
the explosion originated within the ship.
Upon the destruction of the Maine, newspaper owners such as William Randolph Hearst came to the conclusion
that Spanish officials in Cuba were to blame, and they widely publicized this theory as fact. They fueled
American anger by publishing sensationalistic and astonishing accounts of "atrocities" committed by Spain in
Cuba. The American cry became, "Remember the Maine, To Hell with Spain!" 6
1898 March 21 - Formal Protest by the Council of Foreign Bondholders through R.J. Maclachlan, Britains
Consul in Honduras, says amount owed them including interest through July 1897 is 16,908,164 pounds
sterling.
On 25 April 1898 Spain declares War on the U.S.
The first battle between American and Spanish forces was at Manila Bay, Philippines.

Astor Secretly Funds Tesla Experiments In Free Electricity
On 10 January 1899 Astor secretly funded Tesla with $100,000. Tesla set up a lab in Colorado Springs,
Colorado to conduct experiments into wireless transmission of electricity and radio technology.
Tesla had a future vision of free electrical power. Tesla's diary contains explanations of his experiments
concerning the ionosphere and the ground's currents. He proved that the earth was a conductor. He also
investigated atmospheric electricity. He produced artificial lightning with discharges of millions of volts, and
135 feet long. 6
Photo of Tesla seated by discharging Tesla coil at the Tesla lab in Colorado Springs
He conducted successful experiments with wireless transmission of large amounts of electric power. He
achieved frequencies of up to 20 million volts and invented a special apparatus, the "magnifying" transmitter. 43
By means of a transmitter tuned to a certain frequency, and a receiver tuned to the same frequency, he could
transmit free electrical power to anywhere in the world, to operate electrical devices and motors.
This would have had an enormous impact, providing homes and electric automobiles with free electrical power.
Imagine the horror felt by the jewish oligarchy and associates they would not be able to sell their gasoline for
cars or sell their electricity to every individual home. See Section 2 of this series for details.
The potential financial threat to the jewish oligarchy presented by these three inventors Tesla, Astor, and
Westinghouse - was too much to tolerate. They had to be taken down. Additionally, Astor posed a serious
financial threat all by himself in Central America.

United Fruit Company Formed

IOBB Member In Business With United Fruit
Cuyamel Fruit Company Formed
1899 - Transfer of power from Policarpo Bonilla to General Sierra in Honduras.
Minor Cooper Keith dominated the banana business in Central America by 1899. He was the dominant fruit
importer to the southeastern United States through the port of New Orleans, with extensive railroads and
plantations in Central America.
Boston Fruit Company had plantations in the Caribbean, and a steamship fleet of 42 ships. Boston Fruit was the
dominant importer in the Northeastern United States.
On March 30, 1899 Minor Keith, Andrew Preston, and Captain Lorenzo Baker, agreed to merge their companies
and created the United Fruit Company. They make a 1000 percent markup/profit on bananas.
Together, the two firms controlled 75% of the fresh fruit market.
United Fruit would go on to purchase a controlling interest in the Bluefields Steamship Company that was
owned by Jacob Weinberger, a member of the IOBB in New Orleans. They would also obtain a controlling
interest in the Cuyamel Fruit Company. 54, 90
In 1900, Ashbell Hubbard and Samuel Zemurray (his jewish original name was Zmurri) joined forces. They
purchased two tramp steamers, and began buying cargoes from independent plantations in Honduras and selling
them in New Orleans. They created the Cuyamel Fruit Company in 1902. 40

Railroad from its connection with the leased section in Pimienta to the Bay of Fonseca on the Pacific, with the
right of way and other valuable concessions of lands and other kind.

1902 Ashbell Hubbard and Samuel Zemmuray (jewish) had joined forces in 1900. They purchased two tramp
steamers, and began buying cargoes from independent plantations in Honduras and selling them in New
Orleans. They then began buying land and created the Cuyamel Fruit Company in 1902. Zemurray was known
as "Sam the Banana Man." He was a banana plantation owner in Honduras. 40

1902 May 20 The end of the jurisdiction of the United States Military Government is announced and Cuba
is now allowed to form its own civil government and attained independence. However, the United States
imposed various restrictions on the new government, including prohibiting alliances with other countries, and
reserved for itself the right of intervention. The US also established a perpetual lease of Guantanamo Bay. They
must have had an appropriate President for the place! This also allowed United Fruit 3 years to establish their
massive plantations with slave labor, backed by the U.S. military.

Honduran Presidents Policarpo Bonilla and General Sierra had not performed to the satisfaction of the jewish
oligarchy. They had cooperated with Astor and the Honduras Syndicate. A new man was needed for president
of Honduras.
Honduran President Sierra is overthrown in 1903 by General Manuel Bonilla, who proved to be an even greater
friend of the banana companies than Sierra had been. Companies gained exemptions from taxes and permission
to construct wharves and roads, as well as permission to improve interior waterways and to obtain charters for
new railroad construction.

Manuel Bonilla
Manuel Bonilla was president of Honduras from 1903 to 1907 and again from 1912 to 1913. 42 (He was not
related to a previous Honduran president named Policarpo Bonilla. Rather, they were enemies and Manuel
Bonilla had Policarpo Bonilla jailed for 2 years.)
1903 The U.S. State Department refuses to support the Honduras Syndicate claims against the
Honduras.
The State Department declares the old Honduras Bonds were illegally and fraudulently issued and disposed of,
and that it would be opposed to any deal in respect to a debt relative to which is alleged grave frauds, illegalities
and injustice. 42
Note:
This is a false reason because in 1909 the U.S.government supports J.P. Morgan when he revives this dead
claim. What theyre doing is wrecking Astor. The US government is again assisting the interests of the jewish
oligarchy in Central America by eliminating competition from Astor.
October 29, 1903 - The offices of New Orleans & Central American Trading Company and the Bluefield
Steamship Company - in Bluefields, Nicaragua - were burned down. 91
Both companies were owned by IOBB members in New Orleans.
1903 - United Fruit commenced the first refrigerated steamship service. 88
1904 - Guatemalan dictator Manuel Estrada Cabrera granted United Fruit a ninety-nine year tax-free concession
to construct and maintain the country's main rail line from Guatemala City to Puerto Barrios.
Jacob and Charles Weinberger were in the banana business with United Fruit. Jacob was a member of the
IOBB. Charles Weinberger, as manager of the United Fruit Despatch company in New Orleans, negotiated a
concession for exclusive navigation rights on the Escondido River from Zelaya in 1904. This gave United Fruit
an iron grip on the banana industry in the Bluefields, Nicaragua area. The six hundred small American and
creole planters who worked land on the edge of the river, were now dependent on United Fruit to get their
bananas out. 90

US Government Organizes "Peace Treaty" In Central America

By 1907 the United States looked with considerable disfavor on the role Zelaya of Nicaragua was playing in
regional affairs. When the Nicaraguan army entered Honduras in 1907 to overthrow Manuel Bonilla, the
U.S.government, believing that Zelaya wanted to dominate the entire region, landed marines at Puerto Corts to
protect the North American bananas trade.
United States naval units prevented a Nicaraguan attack on Manuel Bonilla's last position at Amapala. Bonilla
sought refuge on the USS Chicago, and the fighting came to an end. The United States representative in
Tegucigalpa arranged a final peace settlement, with which Zelaya was less than happy. The settlement provided
for the installation of a compromise regime, headed by General Miguel Dvila.
Dvila was a liberal but was distrusted by Zelaya, who made a secret arrangement with El Salvador to oust him
from office. This plan failed to reach fruition, but the United States, alarmed by the threat of renewed conflict in
Central America, called the five Central American presidents to a conference in Washington in November.

Opening Conference of the Peace Treaty

The treaty signed in Washington December 20, 1907:
No Government of Central America shall, in case of civil war, intervene in favor of or against the Government
of the country where the struggle takes place. 59
Note:
Under the guise of a "peace treaty", the US government performs a war tactic called divide and conquer. What
really happened here was an agreement to not assist each other when a country in Central America was under
attack by revolutionaries. This would allow the jewish oligarchy to hire revolutionaries to overthrow any given
Central American country, and no other country would come to the aid of the country that was
under attack. That way, they could pick off the leaders of these countries, one by one, and these countries would
not unite together for their common defense.
These countries were being set up for some major moves that were about to take place by the jewish oligarchy.
In 1908, opponents of President Dvila, likely supported by Guatemala and El Salvador, invaded Honduras.
Nicaragua supported the Honduran president, and war seemed imminent. Perhaps motivated by the possibility
of United States intervention, however, the parties agreed to submit the dispute to the new Central American
court. The court ultimately rejected the Honduran and Nicaraguan complaints, but in the meantime the revolt
collapsed, thus briefly restoring peace to Honduras. Samuel Zemurray (Cuyamel Fruit Company) had
encouraged and even helped finance the 1908 invasion and was to continue to make trouble for the Dvila
administration.
In 1908, Minor Cooper Keith completed a railroad in Guatemala from Puerto Barrios to Guatemala City. This
allowed the United Fruit Company to develop banana plantations in the Guatemalan lowlands. He also bought
the Western Guatemala Railroad between Guatemala City and the Pacific Coast.
1908 Washington Valentine negotiated with Jose Santos Zelaya an interoceanic canal in Nicaragua. 6

IOBB Members In New Orleans And Their Connections

Before discussing what the jewish oligarchy did next to dominate the countries in Central America, it is
necessary to know who some of the IOBB members in New Orleans were and the people who were connected
to them, that they used to assist them.
Jacob and Charles Weinberger owned the Bluefields Banana Company that was consolidated with 2 competitors
and renamed the Bluefields Steamship Company. It was involved in the banana trade. Jacob was a member of
the IOBB in New Orleans.
United Fruit Company owned a large number of shares in Bluefields Steamship Company, thus these two
companies were in business together. This conglomerate was controlling almost the entire fresh fruit market.
Their business interests in Central America was not limited to bananas and fruit. They had railroad concessions,
owned land and plantations, owned steamships that transported freight, etc. For example, Jacob Weinberger was
also Secretary of the Nicaragua Electric Company and President of the Bluefields Lumber Company in
Bluefields, Nicaragua.
Jacob Weinberger was also President of the Adler-Weinberger Steamship Company, which was a leading factor
in tropic fruit and Central American business. 48, 89, 90
Member of IOBB
William Adler was a Director in Bluefields Steamship Company and vice president of
Schwartz Foundry Company. 48 (A foundry melts metals and pours the molten metal into molds to make
products.)
Nathan S. Stern had worked at Schwartz Foundry Company for 18 years as of 1906.

In 1906 The Stern Foundry & Machinery Co., New Orleans, was incorporated with 100k, and Nathan is
President. 92
Nathan S. Stern was married to Bertha Kaufman, they lived in New Orleans. Her father was Charles A. Kaufman, a
member of the Independent Order of Bnai Brith (IOBB). 46
Charles A. Kaufmann - Member of IOBB

Nathan S. Stern is important because in 1910 he bought a ship that was used to bring mercenaries and guns to
the so-called "revolutionaries" in Central American countries.
The ship was named the Hornet, and its ownership was then transferred to Joseph Beer, member of the IOBB.
Ferdinand Beer and his son Joseph Wolf Beer were both members of the IOBB.
Ferdinand Beer owned the New Orleans & Central American Trading Company, one of the most aggressive in
Central American trade. His Central American headquarters was in Bluefields, Nicaragua. When Ferdinand
Beer died on Jan. 22, 1909, his sons Joseph W. Beer and Alfred Victor Beer managed the business until it had
been fully liquidated. Then Joseph Beer entered the same line of business on his own account. Alfred Victor
Beer entered the export and commission business - A.V. Beer, Inc.
Both gentlemen maintaining offices and general headquarters in New Orleans.
Alfred Beer enjoys the distinction of being Danish consul to Nicaragua. 49, 53, 89
Joseph W. Beer was married to Beulah Strauss, daughter of Leopold Strauss.

Note:
Its no wonder the common people in these Caribbean countries were so poor. There were many foreigners
coming in and taking the natural resources of these countries for their personal profits such as mining, forests,
sugar, tobacco, fruits, etc.
The leaders of these countries were often getting personally rich by cooperation with the foreigners, but the only
benefit for the common people was to work as slave labor in the companies owned by the foreigners. And if
the leaders were not cooperative enough, military action was used to oust them and replace them with someone

President Lincolns famous speech was government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Everyone
assumed he meant the common people in the country. Nope. That needs to be translated into what people he
meant the New World Order people. Government of the New World Order people, government by the New
World Order people, and government for the New World Order people. Well, now that we got that sorted out,
everything starts making more sense.
In 1909, J.P. Morgan and associates, with full backing of the United States Government, began strong-arming
all the Central-American countries, plus Cuba and the Dominican, to turn over the collection of the customs
taxes in Central America, in order to pay off Central American debts to European Banks.
Yes, you heard that right, the U.S. will interfere in another countrys affairs to make sure the European Bankers
get their loan payments. So, now, that makes our U.S. military guys actually reduced to the metaphoric role, of
Vinnie the knee-breaker debt collector! The soldiers were probably told they are "making the world safe for
democracry".
On 17 July 1909, J.P. Morgan begins controlling the condemned bonds of Honduras, with the U.S. State
Department backing his deal with the Bondholders. He controls the Honduran Railroad and the Wharf this
means the Customs income. The Honduran government is simply informed of this!
The U.S. Minister to Honduras, Philip Brown, writes a letter informing the Honduran government that the J.P.
Morgan firm is agreeing to handle the Foreign Debt of Honduras, the delivery of the Railway and Wharf, and
the advancement of money for internal improvements, including new bonds. Adds a line that basically says the
U.S. Government (and ergo its military) is behind this.

Under instructions from my Government, which I have just received by telegraph, I have the honour and
pleasure to inform the Government of Honduras that the firm of J.P. Morgan & Co. has informed my
Government that they are prepared to agree in the arrangement of the Foreign Debt of Honduras, the delivery of
the Railway and Wharf of Puerto Cortes, and the advancement of a substantial amount for internal
improvements which may be necessary, acquiring new Bonds which must be duly secured.
Messr.s Morgan & Co. have notified my Government that the Council of Foreign Bondholders had accepted the
proposal of Morgan & Co., who now have control of the British and American securities, including the Railway
and Wharf, and that the Council of Foreign Bondholders, acting in behalf of the holders of the Bonds, have
informed the British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs of the foregoing, and that the Secretary of State of
Foreign Affairs having cordially approved the new project, has, by request of the Council of Bondholders, given
notice to Minister Carden of the change in the situation.
I have instructions to manifest that if the Government of Honduras would send a special agent to the United
States with full powers to negotiate with Morgan & Co., the Government of the United States would extend to
him all facilities.
I beg to add that the Government of the United States feels itself happy to see, in the said proposals, the
prospect of a good result and for a settlement upon a favourable basis for the amortization of the National Debt,
which would be for the prosperity, tranquility and National strength of Honduras.
Tegucigalpa, July 17, 1909
(Signed) Philip Brown 42
1909 - Honduras is approached by the US State Department with an agreement from a "syndicate of bankers"
of New York (J.P. Morgan & Co.) intimating to the Honduran
Government the advisability of sending a representative to Washington with a view to taking advantage of the
offer of a syndicate of Wall Street bankers to settle the foreign debt, to advance funds for the carrying out of
progressive public works, and for the redemption of the internal debt, assuring the government that this proposition would be more advantageous to the
country than the settlement made with the Minister of Great Britain, who was at the same time representing the
foreign bondholders. Prior to this the State Department used it and the Bankers influence to get the Foreign
Office in London to annul the settlement previously made with Honduras by the British Minister.
Messrs. Morgan & Co. have notified my government that the Council of Foreign Bondholders had accepted the
proposal of Morgan & Co., who now have control of the British and American securities, including the railway
and wharf, and that the Council of Foreign Bondholders, acting in behalf of the holders of bonds, have informed
the British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs of the foregoing, and that the Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs having cordially approved the new project, has, by request of the
Council of Bondholders, given notice to Minister (Honduras)
Honduras sent a commission to Washington and New York, and listened to the propositions, which were
conditional on signing that the U.S. Government would assume the administration of the Honduran Custom
Houses, through employees appointed or dismissed by the President of the United States. Of the loan amount
proposed, not even 10 percent would reach Honduras, and most of that was to be invested in railroad supplies,
machinery, rolling stock, etc. This is basically asking Honduras to turn over their sovereignty to the United
States. U.S. President Taft, and Mr. Knoxs proposal bottom line, is that instead of eight million Honduras
would have to pay based on the British Ministers proposal (with no degrading conditions and stipulations), they
would get to pay 26 million dollars! And meanwhile Taft and Knox persisted in claiming to the world that

they were holding out a generous hand to the Latin-American countries, in order to lighten the weight of their
foreign debts. Truthfully, they were devising means of cornering these countries into essentially slave states.
All these maneuverings were kept secret in the United States and in Honduras.
The Envoy of Honduras in Washington, Juan E. Paredes, refused to sign the Loan Treaty and contract, acting
under instructions from his government, so then steps had to be taken by the bankers. 57
(Juan E. Parades wrote a book about this - The Morgan-Honduras Loan.)
Note:
What a deal! Instead of paying 8 million to the British, you can now pay 26 million to Morgan (agent for the
Rothschilds and other elements of the Jewish oligarchy.) But wait!
Theres more! If you act now, you can also get this free set of Ginsu knives, compliments of Morgan and
associates!
1909 - The Costa Rican Government is approached by the US State Department with an agreement from a
"syndicate of bankers" of New York (J.P. Morgan & Co.) to "settle the foreign debt and a new loan; the
principal condition being the delivery of the Custom Houses to collectors to be named by the President of the
United States. They did not approve, but the same contract was entered into with Minor C. Keith, it just didnt
mention the US government as one of the contracting parties now. (Since the 1890's Minor Cooper Keith
(United Fruit) had worked as the main negotiator of the Costa Rican foreign debt with English banks.)
1909 - The Dominican is approached by the US State Department with an agreement from a syndicate of
bankers of New York (J.P. Morgan & Co.) to settle the foreign debt and a new loan; the principal condition
being the delivery of the Custom Houses to collectors to be named by the President of the United States. They
did not approve. So a revolution is backed by the US Government, causing the fall of President Victoria and a
Catholic Bishop is made president.
July 1909 - Nicaragua President, Jose Santos Zelaya, is approached by the US State Department with an
agreement from a syndicate of bankers of New York (J.P. Morgan & Co.) to settle the foreign debt and a
new loan; the principal condition being the delivery of the Custom Houses to collectors to be named by the
President of the United States. Zelaya refused.

1909 November 2 New York Times there are reports about Nicaraguan President Zelaya receiving help
from Honduran government, President Davila, in the form of arms, money, and men. (Zelaya and Davila are
allied because they are both liberals and they are both refusing to accept the Morgan propositions.)
The article quotes the treaty signed in Washington December 20, 1907:
No Government of Central America shall, in case of civil war, intervene in favor of or against the Government
of the country where the struggle takes place. 93
1909 November - in 1867, the USA ascertained the right to build and run a canal from Pacific to Atlantic in
Nicaragua. The Project of Nicaragua Canal was never realized, especially since, in November 1909, the
Nicaraguan ruler Zelaya denied the USA the rights granted in the 1867 Treaty.
Note:
The US government was building the Panama Canal from 1904 to 1914. In 1908, Washington Valentine,
partner with John Jacob Astor in the Honduras Syndicate, negotiated with Jose Santos Zelaya an interoceanic
canal in Nicaragua. This would compete with the US government Panama Canal, they would no longer be a
monopoly.
Zelaya's determination to resist US hegemony, most notably in his efforts to entice European and Japanese canal
builders to his country, brought on the wrath of the US government. Tariff increases by Nicaragua alienated the
foreign businesses on the coast of Nicaragua. A tariff is money charged by a government on imports and
exports.
In 1909, the United States provided political support to conservative-led forces rebelling against President
Zelaya. U.S. motives included differences over the proposed Nicaragua Canal, Nicaragua's potential as a
destabilizing influence in the region, and Zelaya's attempts to regulate foreign access to Nicaraguan natural
resources.
Note:
The governor on the Nicaraguan coast was Juan J. Estrada. He was in bed with New Orleans members of the
IOBB who had businesses on the Nicaraguan coast at Bluefields. Estrada lead revolutionaries against Zelaya.
His revolution was financed by IOBB members who also supplied mercenaries, guns, and supplies at
Bluefields, Nicaragua. The revolution would also receive support from the U.S. military.
By supporting the Estrada revolution the IOBB members in New Orleans were not just helping their personal
businesses in Nicaragua, they were supporting the efforts of the jewish oligarchy to take control of the
Caribbean countries through their agent Morgan.
1909 November 5 Astor and son Vincent allegedly set sail from Kingston, Jamaica on the Nourmahal. (They
are going to Central America, likely to negotiate terms for building the canal in Nicaragua. But US newspapers
will falsely report they went to Porta Rico.)
1909 November 6 Davila, President of Honduras, requires all vessels of 100 tons and under must give bond
before they can operate in the coast-wise trade, and this has almost put a stop to the exportation of coconuts.

On November 17, 1909, two Americans were executed in Nicaragua by order of Zelaya after the two men
confessed to having laid a mine in the San Juan River with the intention of blowing up the Diamante.
1909 November 18, American Ships sent to Nicaragua Philander Knox worked for the U.S. Secretary of State Department. In order to take action against Zelaya
openly, Mr. Knox needed some pretext to start the open hostilities. Such a pretext presented itself in the
execution of Groce and Cannon, the two American adventurers who had been actively engaged in the ranks of
the Estrada revolution, and who had been taken prisoner when in the act of blowing up with dynamite some
government river boats, and who had been condemned to death by a court martial.
Mr. Knox pronounced the sentence imposed upon Cannon and Groce unjust, declared Zalaya's government
tyrannical and despised by public opinion, and asserted that all Nicaragua had risen in arms. This was not the
truth, it being well known that the revolution was at that time localized on part of the Atlantic Coast. He
declared Zelaya the perturber of peace in Central America and a violator of the Washington conventions, who
had merited the complaints from the other governments of Central America, who considered his stay in power a
constant menace.
And so a revolution was engineered. [see New York Times article November 28, 1909 also see October 1910
and 1912]
1909 November 21 the New York Times starts reporting Astors ship as missing, and a supposed wreck is
sighted off Cuba that is being investigated. Hes in the Honduras, per a later article in New Orleans.
Note:
Valentine had a house in Honduras. Valentine and Astor were business partners. Valentine was friends with
Zelaya and had negotiated a deal with Zelaya to build an inter-ocean canal in Nicaragua. And the US
government was infuriated about that.
1909 New York Times says Astor is in San Juan, Porta Rico.
Col. John Jacob Astor's steam yacht Nourmahal, about the whereabouts of which so much alarm has been felt in
the last two weeks, was never in danger during that time. Last Wednesday afternoon she was riding peacefully
at anchor in San Juan harbor, while her owner and friends were taking in the sights of Porta Rico in one of Col.
Astor's big automobiles. arrived in San Juan November 14
(Right, then why didnt they see her. Sounds like a cover.Yepthe last part of the article says):
Last night, in spite of the Nourmahals undoubted safety in San Juan, Capt. Ross, head of the service in
Washington, said that the Yamacraw would continue her quest until she had found the yacht.
Note:
So, they had a US warship searching for Astors yacht, under the pretext that it was missing. Good thing they didnt
find it, they probably would have sunk it. Well, they would get another opportunity later

the country.
New York Tribune, December 6, 1909 December 5 Astor has fever, lands in Jacksonville, Florida and takes train home.
Colonel John Jacob Astor and party, on his steam yacht Nourmahal, reached port this morning from San Juan,
Porta Rico by way of the coast of Cuba, and remained aboard the yacht tonight. The party will leave tomorrow
evening on Colonel Astors private car for the north. Colonel Astor could not be seen, being indisposed on
account of a slight fever contracted while in San Juan.
1910 President Dvila of Honduras granted the Vaccaro brothers a generous rail concession that included a
provision prohibiting any rival line within twenty kilometers. This concession angered Sam Zemurray of the
newly formed Cuyamel Fruit Company, which United Fruit Company had a 60 percent ownership in. 95
1910 Congressional Anti-Trust hearing - Andrew Preston, co-owner of United Fruit, barely admitted to
knowing who Sam Zemurray was when he testified at a congressional antitrust hearing in 1910. 96 (He barely
knew him even though United Fruit owned 60% of Zemurrays Cuyamel Fruit Company?)
Note:
United Fruit was ordered to divest itself of all shares in the Bluefields Steamship Company. 88 Bluefields
Steamship Co. was owned by Jacob and Charles Weinberger. Jacob Weinberger was an IOBB member in New
Orleans.

Honduras to American collectors in order to pay off the Honduras debt to Morgan.
Sam Zemurray, co-owner of Cuyamel Fruit Co., wanted his own "concessions" from Honduras to grow bananas.
Due to the fact that Honduras also wasnt co-operating well with the U.S. bankers, Sam the banana man helped
launch a "revolution" to get rid of President Davila.
Manuel Bonilla was a deposed President of Honduras. Zemurray gets together a crew composed of himself, Lee
Christmas, Guy "Machine Gun" Molony, and Manuel Bonilla. They get together some arms, and some machine
guns, they sneak out from New Orleans in the Hornet. The boats they used to invade Honduras was the Hornet,
the Centinella, and the Emma.
In July 1910 they invaded the Atlantic Coast of Honduras. Normally American Navy ships closely watched the
Bay of Honduras, on this occasion they were nowhere in sight. This particular invasion did not succeed in
overthrowing Davila, but the US government threatened further revolutions unless Davila accepted the Morgan
loan proposition.
Davila was in a dilemma, if he accepted the Morgan loan, his countrymen would turn against him. If he rejected
the Morgan loan, then Manuel Bonilla would overthrow him.
Sam Zemurray forged a personal friendship and political alliance with Manuel Bonilla, who had taken refuge in
the French Quarter of New Orleans following an aborted invasion of Honduras in July 1910.
In order to break President Davila's resistance, they had the press of this country publish hints that should
President Davilla not accept the Loan Proposition in totality soon, it would be accepted anyway by Honduras, as
a revolution in that country was unavoidable, and the leader of the revolution had beforehand pledged himself to
accept the Morgan proposition. 57 That leader was Manuel Bonilla, he was the bankers man who would accept
the Morgan propositions if he were president of Honduras.
IOBB Members Finance Revolution in Nicaragua

US Military Enforces Morgan/Jewish Oligarchy Proposition
Common People Revolt Against The Rape Of Their Country
Common People Machine Gunned Down By The U.S. Military
Another instance of using the Hornet to bring mercenaries and guns to the so-called "revolutionaries" took place
in Bluefields, Nicaragua. 47
Philander Knox, who worked for the U.S. Secretary of State Department, had made an "offer" to Zelaya,
President of Nicaragua. The "offer" was for Zelaya to re-assign all of Nicaraguas loans exclusively to J.P.
Morgan, and sign away their sovereignty in a treaty with the U.S. Government. Zelaya refused the offer.
October 1910 - Juan J. Estrada was governor on the Nicaraguan coast. Estrada declared against Zelaya in
October 1910. 47 IOBB members had businesses on the Nicaraguan coast at Bluefields. They financed
Estradas revolution.
Quote from a New York Times article on September 10, 1912:
"Mr. Estrada was frank enough to admit that the revolution headed by him which overthrew Zelaya had received
Page -39-
The Dark Knights
6/9/14 5:12:45 PM
financial aid from certain American companies established on the Atlantic coast of Nicaragua. He said these
companies had contributed something close to $1,000,000. The house of Joseph W. Beers was in for $200,000,
and that of Samuel Weil for about $150,000."
(Joseph Beers was an IOBB member.)
IOBB members also supplied the Estrada revolutionaries with guns, supplies and hired mercenaries from the
U.S. They also provided a secure base for the revolutionaries at Bluefields, Nicaragua. The revolution would
also receive support from the U.S. military.
The U.S. government aided the rebel cause through its naval muscle, declaring the rebel stronghold of
Bluefields "off limits" to fighting. The U.S. military warned the Nicaraguan government not to interfere with the
movement of ships in and out of Bluefields.
Faced with such a massive array of forces directed at such a tiny country, Zelaya finally abandoned the
presidency 47
Zelaya, stunned by the violent attitude of the U.S. State Department, turned executive power over to Dr. Jose
Madriz. But the U.S. State Department refused to recognize the government of Madriz. The revolutionary forces
continued the revolt against Zelaya's successor, Madriz.
The forces of the Madriz government routed the revolutionary troops in the interior
of the country, thus leaving the revolutionists reduced to one stronghold in Kama, and its base of supplies,
Bluefields, on the Atlantic Coast. The government army marched to Bluefields, where the Customs House was,
and finally reached the two strongholds of the rebels on the Coast, Kama and Bluefields, simultaneously with
the government navy occupying the ports and all the river outlets along the Coast. After a combined attack, they
captured the bluff, the key to the port and town of Bluefields. When the Nicaraguan forces were preparing to
attack Bluefields by land and sea, American marines were landed, and the commander gave notice that he
would not permit any hostile acts against the town of Bluefields; that he would not allow the detention of any
mercantile vessel, not even to be searched for contraband of war, and that he would not allow the collection of
import duties by the Madriz government at the Bluff Custom House.
The revolutionists, being guaranteed the safety of Bluefields by the presence of American marines, assed all
their forces for the defense of Rama, and being assured of Bluefields as a base of supplies, as the marines were
there with the avowed purpose of defending the town against an attack by the Madriz forces, that the
demoralization which had been noticeable in the ranks of the revolutionists was replaced by a firm confidence
in an ultimate victory.
The lack of war munitions which had been noticeable in the revolutionary headquarters was replaced by an
abundance of everything necessary for a campaign, for American marines were sent aboard all incoming
vessels, thus rendering the importation of all war material safe and sure for the carrying on of the revolution.
The American commander notified the Madriz forces, that should an attempt be made to detain these vessels, or
should a shot be fired at them, it would be considered a declaration of war against the United States, and that
then the American war vessels would bombard the fort and sink the Nicaraguan war vessels.
The Madriz forces realized that it would be useless to continue fighting against such odds, a retreat was ordered,
equal to a defeat. When these disheartened troops arrived back in the interior, they contaminated the balance of
the army, and before long every man in the ranks was convinced that they had been fighting a hopeless battle,
not against the revolutionists, but against the gigantic power of the United States. Madriz deposited the
executive power in a deputy, who, in turn, turned it over soon afterwards, to the leader of the revolutionists.
the "Knox-Castrillo" treaty was convened upon as a basis for a loan, which contract was signed by Castrillo
Page -40-
The Dark Knights
6/9/14 5:12:45 PM
and a group of bankers of New York (J.P. Morgan & Co.).

These Castrillo Contracts contain the clause that their validity depends on a ratification by the Senate of the
United States. an advance loan of a million and a half to be made on the condition of delivery of the custom
houses to American collectors.
But something more scandalous was committed. Philander Knox, of the U.S. State Department, forced an
additional loan contract on Nicaragua to the amount of $750,000, taking in guaranty the National Railroad and
river and lake steamers, on conditions which make these national properties appear to have been almost given
away. It is but natural to suppose that with the ingress of such large sums of money, the Nicaraguan
Government should, at least in the beginning, have been in comfortable monetary circumstances, and the
country in a favorable economic condition, but the truth is that never in the history of that country has the
treasury been emptier than then, nor has the poverty of the masses ever been so noticeable, and the stagnation of
commerce and progress more pronounced. The reason for this is clear; of all these sums that were apparently
being loaned nothing reached the public treasuries of Nicaragua, and of the resources derived from the Custom
Houses of the country, but a very small percentage has been turned over by the American collectors to the
Nicaragua government.
It was easily to be seen, in Nicaragua as well as abroad, that the election of General Mena, brought about by the
National Assembly, was not looked upon with favor by the U.S. State Department, and at the same time letting
it be understood that the favorite of the U.S. State Department was the actual President, Adolfo Diaz, who, it is
believed was encouraged by the American Minister (Philander Knox) to relieve General Mena from his post as
Minister of War.
Mena had the support of the armed forces in the country. The greater part of all the officers in the army were his
creations, and it was notoriously known that Mena was the real power in the government.
It is to be presumed that Knox was convinced that his favored candidate could not succeed himself through the
vote of a public election, and in order that Mena's advantage of the control of the army might be
counterbalanced, and to ignore public opinion as represented by the Liberal Party, a civil war was necessary, in which Diaz was to be victorious, aided by outside
support. Had the U.S. State Department wished to avoid the loss of life in Nicaragua of the last two revolutions,
it could easily have done so by disembarking armed forces and by the military occupation of the most important
strategic points throughout the country, as it has done lately.
However, the State Department proceeded in a directly opposite way. The removal of General Mena from the
Ministry of War advised by the American Minister, was a step which had to bring the results which were
presently realized. Mena, having in his
possession most of the armament in the country, placed all that he could in the hands of his followers, and then,
securing the help of the Liberals from the eastern part of the country, he succeeded in bringing an army of
volunteers together, superior in numbers and quality to the forces Diaz could muster against him. Mena
succeeded in a very short time in seriously menacing the capital, and in taking a good many important towns.
Public sentiment was from the very beginning in favor of the uprising, because the government of Diaz, which
never had enjoyed popular favor, became positively hated, and unpopular from the very moment it entered upon
the loan negotiations, which meant the selling of the country. But the uprising against Diaz's government did not
spread over the country until the Diaz forces became reduced to Managua, and, no doubt, the capital would have
fallen into the hands of the revolution, had it not been for the defense for the
presidential palace by American marines. It was then that the masses in Leon, who had up to then remained
passive, rose up in arms as one man, and attacked the government garrison, which was annihilated. They also
Page -41-
The Dark Knights
6/9/14 5:12:45 PM
decimated the armed expedition sent to

subjugate them, and recalled to the country some of the exiled leaders, whose orders for an uprising they had
not expected.
Admiral Sutherland declared expressly that if the railroad and steamship lines were returned to him by the
revolutionists, he would observe a strict neutrality, and that he would abstain from transporting either troops or
war supplies of either belligerents,
thus obtaining control of both railroad and steamers, without any resistance having been offered. However, once
in possession of the railroad lines and stations, and the American forces having established themselves firmly in
protected positions along these lines,
Sutherland invented the pretext of having to go to the rescue of a French school for girls who were perishing
from hunger. All of this was pure fabrication, as there were no pupils at that school except native children, who
had the protection and support of their parents, and who were suffering no greater hardship than any of the other
residents. Thus a considerable military force was assembled in the stronghold of Mena, and Mena was asked to
surrender, having been told that in case of his noncompliance, armed force would be used against him,
whereupon Mena surrendered without having offered resistance.
Admiral Sutherland tried these tactics with General (Doctor) Benjamin Zeledon, but this leader resolved to
defend the honor of Nicaragua, and refused to surrender. The U.S. military forces, after the fortifications
protecting Masaya had been ineffectively attacked by the Diaz forces for three days, started to shell the
Barranca Forts, and, having silenced the revolutionary fire, took the positions by storm. A simultaneous attack
was made by the so-called Diaz Government forces upon the town of Masaya, nearby, which was captured a
few hours later than Barranca. Zeledon succeeded in escaping, but was overtaken and put to death the same day.
Leon and some other towns in the North were still in the hands of the revolutionists, although suffering for lack
of war supplies. Admiral Sutherland then demanded the surrender of all the revolutionary leaders, and these,
convinced of the impossibility of
success against the American invading forces, surrendered; but the masses, highly inflamed by the injustice
committed against their country, tried to offer resistance. Unorganized as they were, the machine guns of
the American marines were turned upon them. A similar incident had taken place in Chichigalpa. From the
American engagements there were hundreds of Nicaraguan victims, killed and wounded, many of them noncombatants.
It seems that the U.S. State Department has tried to make the Senate appear responsible for its actions. This is
indicated by certain press articles inspired by the State Department, and by a declaration made by Mr. Taft in a
speech in which he asserted that the responsibility for the occurrence in Nicaragua rests with the Senate, and
that the Senate alone is responsible for the fact that dollars have not substituted rifle bullets, because the Senate
had not ratified the Loan Treaty which would have given the custom houses of the country into the hands
of American collectors, thus doing away with the inducement and object of revolution.
The fact is that the Nicaraguan custom houses had been under the administration of American collectors for
many months before the revolution started, and it can be safely asserted that the delivery of the country's
resources to the American banking syndicate actually was the cause of the war. 57
Note:
We can add the deaths of the people in Nicaragua to the mounting death toll at the hands of the jewish
oligarchy. It was another chapter in the work of the brothers of light. The death toll by now was already in the

millions, but it does not end here, millions more will lose their lives as the High Priests of IOBB/Temple
Emanu-el carry out Gods work in fulfilling their mission to humanity.
Here is some of their mission statement as given at Temple Emanu-El's website:
The Jewish people has a mission to humankind, a mission ordained of God...
This mission requires that the people born or adopted in the covenant of Abraham must persuade the entire
human family, through teaching and example, that the One and Only God can be worshipped in holiness only as
we human beings serve each other with love. The mission of Israel will not have been fulfilled until
righteousness and peace prevail everywhere for everyone.
If you consider dead people in their graves to be at peace, only then could you say the brothers of light are
succussfully carrying out their so-called mission to humanity.
Additional Note:
The U.S. government does not stand for democracy, as we have been led to believe.
The U.S. government, through various means - the military, the CIA, revolutionaries and assassinations has
repeatedly interferred with popular and elected leaders of foreign countries, against what the majority of the
people in the country wanted. That fact is a result of particular people in the U.S. government being a tool of the
jewish oligarchy.
Hornet Used In Another Attack On Honduras

Manuel Bonilla, The Bankers Man - Made Honduras President
The Hornet had been used in a July 1910 invasion of Honduras, using Manuel Bonilla as the leader of the
revolutionaries. That was a failed attempt to overthrow Davila, the Honduran President. Davila was still
refusing to sign the Morgan proposition, so another assualt was organized. Borrowing money from Sam
Zemurray, Manuel Bonilla allegedly bought the Hornet. In reality he only had a power of attorney from the
Hornets owner, Joseph Beer, a member of the IOBB.
In early December General Juan E. Paredes, Honduran representative in Washington, told the US State
Department that Manuel Bonilla had purchased the Hornet for a strike on the north shore of Honduras and that
the Hornet was ready to depart for a rendezvous on the Guatemala coast, where it would take on arms and
ammunition, in preparation for invading Honduras.
The U.S. State Department told Paredes to inform Davila that only on the condition that he accept the Morgan
loan proposition, could Davila insure himself against a repetition of revolutionary uprisings. If he signed, then
the State Department would bind itself to crush such revolutions.
Davila then began to change his instructions to his envoy in Washington, Juan Paredes. He still instructed
Paredes not to submit to any clause which could possibly endanger the sovereignty of Honduras. 40
1910 December 10 - Finally Davila gave orders to Paredes to sign the Loan Treaty, which instruction the
Honduran representative at first refused to obey.

1910 December 20 - the Hornet, under close scrutiny, receives permission to depart (permission from the US
government in Washington) over the vigorous protest of the Honduran government. 47
1910 December 24 The Hornet arrived where Manuel Bonilla, Lee Christmas, and Guy machine gun
Malony were waiting and they loaded weapons and the machine gun onto the Hornet. Another mercenary was
on board the Hornet, Samuel Dreben.
Samuel Dreben - Called the fighting jew

Samuel Dreben joined the US Army and fought in the Philippines during the Spanish-American War. He then
fought in other wars, finally becoming a hired mercenary who was skillful with a machine gun.
Sam Zemurray hired Lee Christmas, most noted of the Central American soldiers of fortune, to overthrow the
Honduras government. Christmas then hired Dreben. 106
This revolutionary expedition aboard the Hornet, started from the Atlantic Coast of the United States.
Meanwhile, in Livingston, Guatemala, United Fruit had loaded onto the Centinella and the Emma, guns and a
company of 45 men raised by Minor Cooper Keith from United Fruit Company plantations in Guatemala.
The Hornet went to Guatemala and met up with several other ships obtained for the revolutionary cause the
Centinella, the Brittanic, and the Emma. They were not stopped by any military ships as they head for
Manabique Point, Guatemala. A couple of days later, another 24 Honduran strangers had slipped into town,

1911 January 3 The revolutionary expedition, led by the Hornet, reached the coast of Honduras. The
commander of the USS Tacoma, without knowing whether Paredes had signed the treaty or not, didnt know
what to do, so stopped Bonillas ship. Bonilla had anticipated this. After bringing the ship into Roatan harbor,
the captain of the Hornet, who held the power of attorney from Joseph Beer, the ships owner, sold the ship to
Florian Davadi for $40,000, $1.00 down and the rest in mortgage. They signed the papers in front of the local
U.S. Consul. 47, 57
(Joseph Beer is a member of the IOBB.)
1911 January 10 After the USS Tacoma suddenly takes off for some reason, Sam Zemurrays revolutionary
men, led by Manuel Bonilla, invaded Trujillo. On the same day, Lee Christmas and Guy Maloney invaded
Honduras and joined the Bonilla forces, which had already taken Trujillo. 57

filing a protest, signed the Loan Treaty [U.S. government part], but irrevocably refuses to sign the loan contract

1911 January 31 - This Loan Treaty was almost unanimously vetoed and declined by the Honduran Congress
on the last day of January, the US State Department, however, insisting right along that the agreement with the
Morgan banking syndicate should also be accepted and signed.
1911 February Honduras President, General Miguel E. Davila, signs the Loan Treaty.
After Davila had signed the Loan Treaty, the USS Tacoma was ordered to capture the Hornet, but the Hornet
had had time to land the war supplies she had aboard. 57
The U.S. finally intervened in February, 1911 when Knox arranged to install Francisco Bertrand as provisional
Honduras president. Bertrand was affiliated with the revolution, and actively engaged in the ranks of the
revolutionists, and was one of the most intimate friends of Manuel Bonilla, the revolutionary leader. Bertrand
promised to hold free elections, and Dvila resigned. Manuel Bonilla soon won election as president. 57, 102

Note:
We see from all of this that the IOBB members in New Orleans, United Fruit Company, Cuyamel Fruit
Company, the US government and its military, and J.P. Morgan all worked together to help the jewish
oligarchy get control of the Caribbean countries.
Military action was used as the means to overthrow uncooperative presidents and to install men who were
favorable to the jewish bankers.
1911 September Due to the fact that U.S. Department of Justice is looking into the Bonilla revolution,
United Fruit distances itself from Sam Zemurray and sold its interest in Cuyamel Fruit Company, Atlantic Fruit
Company and Vaccaro Brothers. They maintained a close working relationship with Zemurray for 2 years
thereafter though, because he could get whatever he wanted from Manuel Bonilla. 95
Agenda Of Jewish Oligarchy Monopoly & Centralized Power

1911 October Morgans agenda, as acting agent for the Rothschilds and the I.O.B.B. (New World Order)
aka the jewish oligarchy, is about monopoly and centralized power in banking, business, and government. They
are working towards a One World Government and a One World Bank, controlled and run by them

In 1911, Minor Cooper Keith decided to organize all his railway network in a new company called the
International Railways of Central America (IRCA). This corporation consolidated his Guatemalan lines and one
line in El Salvador.
He also bought the Western Guatemala Railroad between Guatemala City and the Pacific Coast, creating an
inter-coast system. The line was eventually extended to the Mexican border, and connected Mexican lines.
1911 Debt of Honduras is now 113,000,000, with allowed annual revenue of 2 million and only 600,000
residents, most of which are Indians that do not work for anyone. 103
1912 - Manuel Bonilla was now President of Honduras for the second time.

Bonilla happily grants Sam Zemurray the contracts he needs to incorporate the Cuyamel Fruit Company in
Honduras, and no taxes for 25 years. Nice deal. 57
Bonilla awarded three railways, a port concession, and ten thousand acres of land to Sam Zemurray. 6
1912 March 4 - Zemurray receives rights to select an additional 24,700 acres between Cuyamel and the
Guatemalan frontier. 95
1912 - United Fruit gets two railway and land concessions, and they begin producing bananas large scale in
Honduras. 40
Bonilla cancelled a major railway concession that was awarded to Washington Valentine. 6

In 1912 the United States Army sends troops to Cuba. The U.S. marines land in Panama during the presidential
elections. The United States Army also intervened in Honduras.
1912 The Morgan loan to Honduras is in the US legislature for approval. Attempted cover-up by Morgan to
deflect the justified attacks on his new loan arrangement with the Honduras. Morgans name is removed from
the bill, and a Bank of the South and a Banker of the North are substituted.
Quote from The Morgan-Honduras Loan by Juan E. Paredes:
We have submitted the proofs to the fair-minded people of the United States, and have appealed to their sense
of justice to support us in our fight against greediness and extortion, when they, too, are fighting against the
same money power, and made clearly to see the great injustice of converting into trusts the trade and resources
of the small countries of Central America for the benefit of the Wall Street potentates.
Although at the fifty-ninth minute of the eleventh hour the State Department has withdrawn from the Senate
Morgans name and substituted it with a Bank of the South and a Banker of the North, in order to checkmate
the attacks against the Morgan-Honduras Loan Scheme, the situation has not changed, because Honduras has
not changed her attitude on the Bondholders Agreement with Morgan; neither on the American Claims.
Note:
The bank of the south was the Whitney Bank Charles Godchaux, a jew, was president of Whitney Central National Bank and Whitney Central Trust and
Savings Bank, which had acquired the Morgan State Bank, in 1911. 48, 49
1912 August approximately Hubbard and Zemurray re-organized all these properties as the Cuyamel Fruit

another concession in the vicinity of Tela, but he gave this to the Tela Railroad Company, a United Fruit

development of lands around Trujillo. 95
New York Times, September 10, 1912 reports:
In the course of an interview with a Times reporter yesterday, Ex-President Estrada, of Nicaragua, who is
stopping at the Hotel St. George, Brooklyn.Mr. Estrada was frank enough to admit that the revolution headed
by him which overthrew Zelaya had received financial aid from certain American companies established on the
Atlantic coast of Nicaragua. He said these companies had contributed, off and on, something close to
$1,000,000. The house of Joseph W. Beers was in for $200,000, and that of Samuel Weil for about $150,000.
1912 November - A heartfelt, and certainly well-justified plea to the American people from Juan E. Paredes:
Honduras asks only to be let alone to arrange terms with her creditors and to contract a loan, if deemed
necessary, to settle her indebtedness. But by no means will Honduras allow a Foreign Government to manage
her National affairs.
We are fighting for a principle.
We are defending our self-government.
Juan E. Paredes, New Orleans, Louisiana November 1912
Press Directs Public Attention Away From Personal Income Tax Law
In 1913, in a truly astounding display of "dont look there, look over here" tactic, the enactment of a true
personal income tax passed right on through the US legislature, because of a banana "furor" show for the public.
The Underwood-Simmons Tariff Act proposed to put taxes on the sale of dozens of items, one of which was
bananas. However, part of this act was also levying a true personal income tax for the first time. The public was
whipped into a furor by the press over the "outrage" of making their beloved bananas more expensive by the
evil money-grubbing government.
United Fruit lead the cast of characters in this soap opera for the American public, complete with impassioned
pleas from the National Housewives League. On July 13, the New York Times says that the banana was not
only a staple food - and it was amoral to tax such - but also one of the few genuine pleasures available to the
common man: "They are entitled to their little luxuries exactly because they are poor." (To my mind, that is an
absolutely disgusting display of condescending arrogance by the New York Times.
Adolph Och, member of Temple Emanu-el, owns the New York Times.)
Sowhile everyone is looking at all that, nobody looks at what else is in that Act, and were led to all heave a
collective sigh of "relief" that the dearly beloved banana had its tax defeated by our United Fruit heroes.
Meanwhile, look what slipped through. Because of course, if the public had been TOLD about the personal
income tax, and what thats going to do to their weekly grocery money, nobody would have given a good goddamn about banana taxes.
Personal income tax, makes the bankers (whom the U.S. government owes money to of course) many, many,
many, times richer than bananas, or a tax on them, ever could. Most of the money from collection of personal
Page -49-
The Dark Knights
6/9/14 5:12:45 PM
income tax goes towards paying the national debt to the bankers. That is the true purpose of this tax and why the
jewish oligarchy wanted this tax levied on the American people. Personally, I think the fortunes of the jewish
oligarchy and their wealthy associates should be used to pay off the national debt, as a step towards rectifying
all the harm they have caused. Then, personal income tax should be eliminated entirely or brought down to a
low amount, such as 5%. Currently, personal income tax is around 33-50% of a persons annual income.
Without that burden on a family, think of what that would do for their life and the economy!
This current recession in the United States was also brought about by the oligarchy, largely due to them
taking manufacturing companies out of the U.S. and putting them overseas, where they can employ people at
slave labor wages. This results in many unemployed people in the U.S. and unemployed people dont have
money to spend on goods and services. The U.S. government should impose such a heavy tariff on imported
goods from overseas factories, that it would be cheaper to bring those manufacturing companies back to the
United States, resulting in employment for American workers, who would then have money to spend, and the
economy would improve.
And, guess what else the U.S. government could do to help? They could stop hiding Teslas research into free
electricity and use it to provide everyone with free electricity.
There are many ways the U.S government could help to improve things if it actually represented the people,
rather than acting in the interests of the oligarchy.
US Military Keeps Those Banana Profits Rolling In

The United States Army invades Haiti in 1915 and the Dominican Republic in 1916. 40
The United States Army invades Cuba in 1917. The American occupation lasts until 1933. One of the first U.S.
businesses to enter Cuba was United Fruit. It established banana and sugar plantations that would grow to cover
300,000 acres.
In 1918 U.S. military forces put down banana-workers strikes in Panama, Colombia, and Guatemala. Thereafter,
the US military kept a police force in Panama. The United Fruit workers were demanding a six-day labor week
and an eight-hour labor day, plus health care. 96
Note:
Gee, how dare they! Not to be worked like slaves? The nerve! How dare you try to cut into our 1000 percent
profit? The use of the U.S. military to gain concessions and "keep those bananas coming", sounds like Mafia
tactics - "let me make you an offer you cant refuse" work or die.
In Columbia the U.S. ambassador, Caffery, reported the events to Washington.
The tone and language of the memo are beyond chilling. They are as clear a manifestation of terrible
indifference as you will ever read: I have the honor to report, that the Bogota representative of the United Fruit
Company told me yesterday that the total number of strikers killed by the Colombian military exceeded one
thousand.

In January 1924, Lpez Gutirrez, President of Honduras, announced his intention to remain in office until new
elections could be held, but he repeatedly refused to specify a date for the elections.
General Tiburcio Caras Andino, candidate of the National Party of Honduras, reportedly with the support of
United Fruit, declared himself president, and an armed conflict broke out.
In February the United States, warning that recognition would be withheld from anyone coming to power by
revolutionary means, suspended relations with the Lpez Gutirrez government for its failure to hold elections.
Rafael Lpez Gutirrez

On February 28, a pitched battle took place in La Ceiba between government troops and rebels. U.S. marines
were landed in Honduras. General Caras and a variety of other rebel leaders controlled most of the countryside
but failed to coordinate their activities effectively enough to seize the capital.
Gutirrez died in March 1924, suffering from diabetes, after a failed attempt to escape to the United States for
insulin treatment.
More U.S. forces invaded Honduras to protect American interests by controlling the outcome of an election in
favor of U.S. corporate interests. The corporate interests were bananas, those represented big money, especially
to a company called United Fruit.
Due to the use of slave labor on the banana plantations, the profit was 1000 per cent.
So, our army gets sent to Honduras because of bananas.
The United States government dispatched Sumner Welles to the port of Amapala; he had instructions to try to
produce a settlement. An agreement was worked out that provided for an interim presidency headed by General
Vicente Tosta. Presidential elections were to be held, and on December 28 Miguel Paz Barahona was elected
president.
The Honduran government, after years of negotiations, finally concluded an agreement with the British
bondholders to liquidate most of the immense national debt. The bonds were to be redeemed at 20 percent of
face value over a thirty-year period. Back interest was forgiven, and new interest accrued only over the last
fifteen years of this arrangement. Under the terms of this agreement, Honduras, at last, seemed on the road to

fiscal solvency.
1924 - A New York Times article published in 1924 implied that the reign of United Fruit would be
remembered as a pinnacle of human achievement. The story, headlined Lowly Banana Rebuilds an Empire,
described the presence of U.S. enterprises in Central America as the rehabilitation of an ancient empire . . . that
flourished long before Columbus. The story continued: The opening up of the humid lowlands of Central
America by the new seaports, railroads, and banana plantations of the United Fruit Company is more than a
story of business faith and commercial enterprise. It is a demonstration of empire building with a new ingredient
capable of correcting the mistakes of the past. [referring to the preservation of the Mayan ruins found in 1912
by United Fruit Company during jungle clearing]
In the U.S. in 1924, Dr. Sidney Haas makes it public that bananas are a "good cure for children suffering from
celiac disease". United Fruit uses this finding, to promote banana consumption for many years. 40
The Guatemalan government gives a concession to the United Fruit company for all the uncultivated lands in a
100 kilometers territory November 7, 1924.
1925 - US troops in Panama break up a plantation strike against United Fruit in 1925. 96
The biggest labor action ever faced by a banana company began in October 1928, when 32,000 workers went on
strike. They demanded to be granted medical treatment and proper toilet facilities; they insisted on being paid in
cash rather than company-issued scrip only redeemable in United Fruit-owned stores. They asked that they be
considered true employees rather than subcontractors who werent even afforded the minimal protection of
Colombias weakly drawn labor laws.
The strike panicked United Fruit. Martial law was declared on December 5, 1928.
On December 6, in the town of Cienaga, banana workers gathered in the town square.
The city hall stood at one end and the main church at the other. The workers were not there, specifically, to
protest. December 6 was a Sunday; theyd attended mass and were waiting to hear a speech by the regional
governor. Because the address would follow church services, the workers were accompanied by their wives and
families.
General Cortes Vargas - the military official in charge of the region, who claimed he acted only to prevent an
even worse intervention by the U.S. military - had given his commanders these orders: Prepare your mind to
face the crowds of rebels, and kill
before foreign troops tread upon our soil.
Four machine gun positions surrounded the square, on rooftops, one at each corner.
An order was given. The area was to be cleared in five minutes. The countdown had begun. Packed into the
square as they were, the crowd couldnt, and didnt, disperse.
The troops opened fire. 96
Note:
The United States military, in its metaphorical role as Vinnie the knee-breaker, sure spends a lot of time
invading other countries where these cash crops are, and where the working conditions for said crops, are
absolutely atrocious! Total slave labor.

From an article in the Menorah, the monthly magazine of the IOBB We barely open our morning's paper without seeing or reading several columns and pages of homicides in
various degrees, lynching and other heinous crimes committed by persons born in Christian faith. Among these
you never find a Jew.
After the conquest of Palestine they hardly ever engaged in war of aggression or conquest and only waged war
in self-defense, and since the destruction of the second Temple, Jews took no interest in killing their brother
men except under compulsion of king or state. 1
Note:
Who are they kidding? Millions have died at the hands of the jewish oligarchy.
The IOBB and Temple Emanu-el members practice reform Judaism. Here is a statement by Moses

Considering the conduct of the jewish oligarchy what does that say about Judaism?

Sinking the Titanic Death of Astor
The Scenario Of The Titanic Sinking Laid Out Beforehand

Morgan Robertson authored a novel titled Futility. It was published in 1898 by M.F. Mansfield in New York.
The novel features a ship called the Titan. It was the largest ship afloat and no expense was spared on making
the ship luxurious.
The steamship Titan had nineteen water-tight compartments.. With nine compartments flooded the ship would
still float, thus the Titan was considered practically unsinkable.
Titan only carried the minimum number of lifeboats required by law - 24 - able to carry 500 people. This was
not enough for the 3000 passengers on board.
Due to excessive speed, the Titan hit an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean and sank.
This happened near midnight in the month of April. There were not enough lifeboats. 2987 people died in the
disaster.
Morgan Robertson republished Futility after the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. The 1912 edition was titled
Futility and the Wreck of the Titan. A happier Hollywood style ending was added.
The similarities between The Titan and Titanic are striking:

By 1904 many British ships were equipped with wireless. The wireless operators came from the ranks of
railroad and postal telegraphers. A general call on the landline wire was a "CQ." By using "CQ," each station
receives a message from a single transmission.
The 'CQ' is an international signal which meant that all stations should cease sending except the one using the
call. In 1904, the Marconi company suggested the use of "CQD" for a distress signal. It is a general call, "CQ,"
followed by "D," meaning distress. A strict interpretation would be "All stations, Distress."
Naturally, "CQ," went with the operators to sea and was likewise used for a general call. This sign for "all
stations" was adopted soon after wireless came into being by both ships and shore stations. 7

Cancellations by Frick, Morgan,Vanderbilt

Titanic was scheduled to depart on its maiden voyage on April 10, 1912.
The American steel magnate Henry Clay Frick canceled when Mrs. Frick sprained her ankle. 8
Frick and Wife

The following is one of the propaganda stories released to cover up the real explanation for J.P. Morgans
sudden change of plans in regards the maiden voyage of Titanic:
J. Pierpont Morgan was with a French antiquities dealer at his hotel, in early April 1912.
He spent the summer in Europe acquiring items for his 50 million dollar art collection.
Now he was awaiting a deal to be accepted to purchase some treasured tapestries depicting events of the Third
Crusade to the Holy Land.
The Dealer asked Morgan, "it's common knowledge that you will make the maiden voyage of Titanic. I suppose
that means you'll be embarking at Cherbourg?"
Morgan replied, "I wouldn't miss that trip for a million dollars. But I will board at Southampton in order to
make the entire voyage."
Just as Morgan was preparing to leave for England, he received word that arrangements had been made and he
could view the tapestries and make an offer on them. Morgan would be delayed for several more days for the
purchase to be completed. While waiting, he sent this cancellation message:
J. Pierpont Morgan to White Star in Southampton from Chartres: "Business will deny me the pleasure of being
one of the first to cross on the finest vessel of I. M. M." 9

J. P. Morgan spent his Winter vacation at the ancient oasis of Khargeh,
which is four days' ride west of Thebes, on the old caravan route from
the Nile to Berber and the Soudan. The principal object of Mr. Morgan's
stay there before starting home by way of Italy was to watch the native
laborers he has employed under Egyptian engineers to excavate at his
expense in the desert around Khargeh in search of a Christian cemetery
which dates back to the early days of the Christian era.
the financier had a small house erected close to the ruins of the Temple of Ammon, which contains some fine
cartouches of Rameses II. There are also some fine Roman ruins in the district which are being excavated at
Mr. Morgan's expense.
Morgan is at Kharga, which is not far from where the Nag Hammadi Library was later found.
April 28, 1912 New York Times Mr. Morgan Seeks More Coptic Manuscripts in Egypt
J. Pierpont Morgan is on his way home from a vacation junt to the site of the ancient oasis of Khargeh,
four days ride west of the ruins of Thebes, in Egypt, and on the caravan route from the Nile to Berber, in the
Soudan.
The newspapers recorded, when Mr. Morgans destination became known, that he had gone to the African
desert to learn of the progress being made there by the native laborers he had employed under Egyptian
engineers to excavate near Khargeh in a search for a Christian cemetery, which dates back to the early days of
this era. Some fine Roman remains in the district were also mentioned vaguely as an object of Mr. Morgans
researches. Mr. Morgans excavations have a much more definite object. He is seeking ancient manuscripts of
the Coptic or Egyptian Christian Church, early examples of which, recently translated and elucidated have
caused such a profound impression among scholars and students of exegetics.
Mr. Morgans journey to Egypt, moreover, followed closely on the announcement of his purchase in Paris of
what is regarded as the most complete and valuable collection of Coptic manuscripts that has ever been
unearthed in Egypt.

J.P. Morgan quote: "A man always has two reasons for doing anything - a good reason and the real reason. "
As you can see, there has been a major cover-up as to the real whereabouts of Morgan at this time. This coverup
was engendered because of what happened in Egypt which led directly to the sudden formation of the plan to
bring about the sinking of Titanic. This is covered in greater detail in Sinking Titanic Book 4.
Mr. George W. Vanderbilt and his wife Edith cancelled on April 9. The explanation given to us for this

Decision to Equip Titanic With Inadequate Number of Lifeboats
Davits are the small cranes that project over the side of a ship and are used to raise and lower lifeboats.
At the design stage Alexander Carlisle suggested that Titanic use a new, larger type of davit, each one could
handle four lifeboats. Sixteen sets of these davits were installed, giving Titanic the ability to carry 64 wooden
lifeboatsa capacity of over 4,000 people, compared with Titanic's total carrying capacity of 3,600 passengers
and crew.

There were also four folding lifeboats, called collapsibles. The lifeboat capacity was 1,178 people. 8
Decision To Not Provide Binoculars To Lookouts

Titanic Leaves Southampton on Fire
Testimony of Frederick Fleet:
Frederick Fleet, lookout man in the crows nest on the Titanic, testified that the lookout men asked to be
provided with binoculars at Southampton and were told there were none for them. 15
Titanic departs on its maiden voyage at noon from Southampton, England on April 10.
Titanic was on fire from the first day she sailed. J. Dilley, fireman on the Titanic, said; "from the day we sailed
the Titanic was on fire, and my sole duty, together with eleven other men, had been to fight that fire. We had
made no headway against it."
"The fire started in coal bunker No. 6. There were hundreds of tons of coal stored there. The coal on top of the
bunker was wet, as all the coal should have been, but down at the
bottom of the bunker the coal had been permitted to get dry. The dry coal at the bottom of the pile took fire...
down in the bottom of the bunkers the flames were raging."

The equipment's guaranteed working range was 250 miles, but communications could be maintained for up to
400 miles during daylight and up to 2,000 miles at night.
The wireless equipment was owned by the White Star Line.
The wireless set was operated by employees of Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co. Ltd, they were not part of the
ships crew. Jack Phillips and Harold Bride were the radio operators on the Titanic. They were paid to relay
messages to and from the passengers.
Radio messages were very popular with the passengers and were regarded as important navigational aids, but
there use still lacked regulation. The Titanic tragedy highlighted this fact, since several ice warnings had been
received but not reported to the bridge.

is given to Captain Smith, who later gives it to Bruce Ismay. Ismay puts the message in his pocket.
Some passengers testified that during the voyage they heard Ismay pressuring Captain Edward J. Smith to go
faster, in order to arrive in New York ahead of schedule and generate some press about the new liner. One
passenger claimed to have seen Ismay flaunting one of the iceberg warnings at dinner time, waving it around,

Antillian to Titanic:
"6.30 p.m., apparent time, ship; latitude 42 3' N, longitude 49 9' W. Three large bergs five mile to southward
of us".
Note A degree of latitude is 68.704 miles at the equator and 69.407 miles at the poles.
A degree is divided into 60 minutes.
1 minute of latitude is 69 miles 60 = 1.15 miles
So, a minute of latitude is a little over a mile.
Roughly speaking, a minute of latitude up around where Titanic was = 1 mile.
A degree of longitude is 69.65 miles at the equator and 53.43 miles at 40 degrees latitude.
A degree is divided into 60 minutes.
1 minute of longitude (at 40 degrees latitude) is 53.43 miles 60 = 0.89 miles
So, a minute of longitude (at 40 degrees latitude) is a little less than a mile.
Roughly speaking, a minute of longitude up around where Titanic was = 1 mile.
For estimating, consider a minute of latitude or longitude around Titanic as about 1 mile.
That places the 3 icebergs reported by Antillian at 41 58' N 49 9' W.

By 7:00 PM Sunday evening, the Titanic has received 6 ice warnings. Captain Smith moves his course 10 miles
further south, but still heading right into the reported ice field!
Blue line shows Titanic intended course. Yellow line is the course change.
Titanics heading was on a course of 242 True. Her final change of course to 266 True brought her heading
back towards the ice field. 13
The northern edge of the ice field was at 41 58' N.
The southern edge of the ice field was at 41 27' N.
Titanic steered a course of 41 46' N right into the middle of the reported ice field!
Finding of the US Senate hearings:
Ice positions, so definitely reported to the Titanic just preceding the accident, located ice on both sides of the
lane in which she was traveling.
Third Officer H. J. Pitman testified that Titanic's average speed was 22.1 knots and when the collision occurred
the Titanic was going at the greatest speed attained during the trip, even though the ship was entering the Grand
Banks and had been advised of the ice field.

Californian to Titanic:
"Say, old man, we are stopped and surrounded by ice."
Titanic to Californian:

Titanic's on-duty wireless operator, Jack Phillips, was busy working off a substantial backlog of passenger
messages with the wireless station at Cape Race, Newfoundland.
The wireless operator aboard the Californian, Cyril Evans, sent Titanic the message that the Californian was
stopped for the night because they were surrounded by ice.
The reply from Phillips on Titanic said "Shut up. Im busy. Im working Cape Race." 8
Testimony of Cyril Evans:
Evans told of having warned the Titanic only a brief time before the great vessel crashed into the berg that the
sea was crowded with ice. The Titanic's operators, he said, at the time were working with the wireless station at
Cape Race, and they told him to "shut up" and keep out. 15

Titanic Lookouts Without Binoculars

Murdock on Bridge Does Not Respond To Lookout Warnings
23:30
Testimony of Frederick Fleet:
Frederick Fleet, lookout man on the Titanic, was in the crow's nest at the time of the collision. Fleet stated that
he had kept a sharp lookout for ice, and testified to seeing the iceberg and signaling the bridge. Fleet
acknowledged that if he had been aided in his observations by a good glass he probably could have spied the
berg into which the ship crashed in time to have warned the bridge to avoid it.
The blame for being without glasses did not rest with the lookout men. Fleet said they had asked for them at
Southampton and were told there were none for them. 15
Statement of crewman Thomas Whiteley:
First Officer William T. Murdock was in charge of the bridge. Three warnings were transmitted from the crow's
nest of the Titanic to the officer on the bridge 15 minutes before she struck, according to Thomas Whiteley, a
steward.
Whiteley was on a lifeboat that contained both the crow's nest lookouts. He heard a conversation between them,
in which they discussed the iceberg warnings they gave to the bridge.
"I heard one of them say that at 11.15 o'clock, 15 minutes before the Titanic struck, he had reported to First
Officer Murdock, on the bridge, that he fancied he saw an iceberg!"
said Whiteley. "Twice after that, the lookout said, he warned Murdock that a berg was ahead. They were very
indignant that no attention was paid to their warnings."
Murdock's tardy answering of a telephone call from the crow's nest is assigned by Whiteley as the cause of the
disaster. When Murdock answered the call he received the information that the iceberg was due ahead. This
information was imparted just a few seconds before the crash, and had the officer promptly answered the ring of
the bell it is probable that the accident could have been avoided, or at least, been reduced by the lowered speed.
The lookout saw a towering "blue berg" looming up in the sea path of the Titanic, and called the bridge on the
ship's telephone. When, after the passing of those two or three
fateful minutes an officer on the bridge lifted the telephone receiver from its hook to answer the lookout, it was

Titanic Hits Iceberg But Iceberg Damage Is Minimal

Huge Hole In Bottom of Ship Not Caused By Iceberg
23:40
Titanic hit an iceberg about 350 miles southeast of Newfoundland. 8
The bow section is buried in mud on the ocean floor. Thus the damage caused to the starboard hull by the
iceberg cant be seen. In 1996, a special acoustic device known as sub-bottom profiler was used to look at the
Titanic's hull through the muddy ocean floor. The images revealed that the collision did not cause a gaping hole.
Instead, there were six narrow non-contiguous openings in the starboard side of the forward hull. The openings
are about 10 feet above the bottom of the ship.
Page -20-
Put Out The Light
6/9/14 5:14:07 PM
The six openings in Titanic's hull (indicated in green).

The openings vary in length, with the longest being about 36 feet and are no wider than an adult hand. The
longest gap extends between boiler rooms No. 5 and No. 6, just crossing the watertight bulkhead. Naval
architects and engineers believe that Titanic would not have sank had it been traveling at a slightly slower rate
of speed. The iceberg's impact and the extent of its damage across the hull plates would have been less severe.
At the British inquiry in 1912, Edward Wilding, a naval architect, proposed that the uneven flooding in the six
watertight compartments meant each had suffered unique, uncontinuous damage. 16
There is a hole in the bow that many like to believe was caused by a coal explosion. 29
Statement of passenger Miss Elizabeth Dowdell:
I looked and saw the gaping hole in the side of the big ship.30
Several passengers said they could see the gaping hole in the side of the Titanic.
There is a hole in the starboard side of the hull at about the area of the forward well deck. 31

Important Note:
As you read further you will see that a large section of the bottom of the ship was blown off, causing a huge
hole. The gaping hole in the bottom was not caused by the iceberg.
Rather, it was caused by an explosion violent enough to knock Mrs. Brown out of bed.
It was the large hole in the bottom that caused Titanic to sink rapidly, not the narrow slits in the hull caused by
the iceberg.
Coal bunker 6 is next to watertight bulkhead D. An explosion there would cause the simultaneous flooding of
Page -23-
Put Out The Light
6/9/14 5:14:07 PM
the compartments to the left and right of WTB D.

The explosion would not have been caused by coal dust because the firemen were constantly spraying coal
bunker 6 with water in an effort to put out the fire there.
And it would not have been caused by cold seawater surrounding the hot boilers at this point in time. An
explosion at this point in time would have to be a bomb going off.
At the time of the sinking of the Titanic, the Morgan-Schiff cartel had access to a radio-controlled detonation
device, used to explode a bomb from a distance. That device could have been used to sink the Titanic.
23:40
The Californian was between five to ten miles away from the Titanic at the time of the disaster and reported in
its log that they had experienced drift. 17
At the time of the collision Californian, having drifted one mile south since stopping, would have been ten miles
north of the collision position. Several hours of the night of April 14th, 1912, were not written up in the log of
the SS Californian. 13
Statement of crewman K. Whiteman:
The officers on the bridge, one of them First Officer Murdock, promptly worked the electrical apparatus for
closing the watertight compartments.
Statement of radio operator Harold Bride:
"I was standing by Phillips, the chief operator, when the captain put his head in the cabin. We've struck an

At 23:50, Third Officer Groves on the Californian had watched this ship's lights flash out, as if the ship had shut
down or turned sharply, and that the port light was now observed. 8
Note - The Californian was North of Titanic. Titanic was headed East, so Californian would see the starboard
light plus the white lights visible from the starboard side. Titanic was making a hard left turn trying to avoid the
iceberg. As Titanic continued to turn, the stern of the Titanic was facing the Californian for a time, and that
would make it appear to the Californian that the Titanics lights had flashed out. Then the Californian saw the
port light on the Titanic and that tells you that the Titanic had turned all the way around and was now facing
East.
Statement of passenger L. Beasley:
I had been in my berth for about ten minutes, when, I felt a slight jar, and then soon after a second one, but not
sufficiently violent to cause any anxiety to anyone. However, the engines stopped immediately afterward, and
my first thought was, `She has lost a propeller.'
I went up on the top deck in a dressing gown, and found only a few persons there, who had come up similarly to
inquire why we had stopped, but there was no sort of anxiety in the minds of anyone.
Statement of passenger McGough:
The collision occurred at 20 minutes of 12, said Mr. McGough. "I was sleeping in my cabin when I felt a
wrench, not severe or terrifying. We dressed hurriedly and ran to the upper deck. There was little noise or
tumult at the time. By this time the engines had been reversed, and I could feel the ship backing off.
Officers and stewards ran through the corridors, shouting for all to be calm, that there was no danger. We were
warned, however, to dress and put life-preservers on us.
Statement of survivor M. Marechal:
When three-quarters of a mile away we stopped...
The impact was not very great but a terrible shiver seemed to go through the ship at the time. I went into the
passageway and asked a stewart what was wrong. He assured me that everything was allright. I went back, to go
to bed, but scarcely had I closed the door, when someone came running along the passage, ordering all hands to
dress and put on lifebelts. When she tried to get to the deck, the stairways were so crowded with steerage
passengers that she couldnt get to the deck above. The stairways were so crowded that men passengers were
lifting women and children to seamen who were in the gallery above.
Statement of passenger Jack Thayer:
Mr. and Mrs. John B. Thayer were on board the Titanic with their 17 year-old son, Jack Thayer. Mr. Thayer was
vice-president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, which is under the Morgan conglomerate. Marian Thayer and her
family were preparing for bed when the collision occurred.
The boy's own account of his experience as told to one of his rescuers is one of the most remarkable. There was
no great shock, I was on my feet at the time and I do not think it was enough to throw anyone down. We hurried

up on deck and walked around, looking out at different places until the women were all ordered to collect on the

Statement of passenger Miss Minahan:
We had retired when there was a dull shaking of the Titanic, which was not so much like a shake as it was a
slowing down of the massive craft. I noticed that our boat had come to a standstill and then we heard the orders
of the captain and went on deck to see what it all meant. I saw Guggenheim, Widener, Thayer and Ismay in
conversation with Colonel Astor just after the ship struck the berg.
I never saw such composure and cool bravery in my life as the men of the first and second cabins displayed.
Colonel Astor seemed to be the controlling figure. He, Major Butt, Mr. Guggenheim, Mr. Widener and Mr.
Thayer clustered in a group as if they were holding a quick consultation as to what steps should be taken next.
Then Col. Astor came forward with the cry, 'Not a man until every woman and child is safe in the boats.'

rather than the curvature of the earth. 13
Testimony of Fourth Officer Boxhall:
Boxhall testified that at Captain Smith's orders he took word of the ship's position to the wireless operators.
"What position was that?"
"41.46 north, 50.14 west."
"Was that the last position taken?"
"Yes, the Titanic stood not far from there when she sank."
"After that I was on the bridge most of the time sending out distress signals, trying to attract the attention of
boats ahead," he said. "I sent up distress rockets until I left the ship, to try to attract the attention of a ship
directly ahead. I had seen her lights. She seemed to be meeting us and was not far away. She got close enough,
so she seemed to me, to read our Morse electric signals." 10, 15

J. Durant, the Marconi wireless operator on the Mount Temple, caught the CQD call from Titanic at 10:25 (his
ships time). He immediately asked Titanic for her position, which Titanic gave him along with "Come at once.
Have struck berg."
"As soon as I got the message I notified the Captain, who at once changed the ships course toward the position
of Titanic. I did not call the Titanic again because other ships, which I judged to be closer, were working and I
did not wish to jam them.
Mount Temple was about 50 miles away from the Titanic. Captain Moore steamed back full speed toward the
position given by Titanic. Captain Moore had a sharp lookout watching for signals and had the lifeboats swung
out for instant use if necessary." 22

Official Report of A. H. Rostron, Captain of the Carpathia:
At 12.35 A. M. Monday 18th inst. I was informed of urgent message from Titanic with her position. I
immediately ordered ship turned around and put her in course for that position, we being then 58 miles S. 52 E.
`True' from her; had heads of all departments called and issued what I considered the necessary orders, to be in
preparation for any emergency.
"Putting about and heading for you".
10, 24

The Carpathia answered our signal. We told her our position and said we were sinking by the head. The
operator went to tell the captain, and in five minutes returned and told us that the captain of the Carpathia, was

heard tell of it. 10
Captain Lord On Californian Goes To Bed

Titanic Lifeboats Launched With Half The Seats Left Empty

On the Californian, Captain Lord spoke to Officer Stone, as follows:
" At 20 minutes to 1, I whistled up the speaking tube and asked him if she was getting any nearer." He said, No,
she is not taking any notice of us. So, I said, " I will go and lie down a bit." 8, 15
"SOS Titanic sinking by the head. We are about all down. Sinking. . ." 63
I came back and heard Phillips giving the Carpathia fuller directions. Every few minutes Phillips would send me
to the captain with little messages. They were merely telling how the Carpathia was coming our way and gave
her speed. I noticed as I came back from one trip that they were putting off women and children in life-boats. I
noticed that the list forward was increasing. 10
00:45
Starboard side Lifeboats were numbered 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 from bow-to-stern, those on the port side

Collapsible lifeboats C and D were stowed on the boat deck immediately in-board of lifeboats 1 and 2
respectively.
The Titanic is launching its lifeboats without filling them to full capacity:

Californian Sees Titanic Distress Rocket

Captain Lord On Californian Does Not Respond To Distress Rocket
Californian Crew Against Captain Lord Decision To Not Aid Titanic
01:15
On the Californian, Officer Stone told Captain Lord about seeing a rocket, as follows:
At a quarter past 1 he said, I think she has fired a rocket. He said, She did not answer the Morse lamp and
she has commenced to go away from us. I said, Call her up and let me know what her name is. So, he put the
whistle back, and, apparently he was calling.
I could hear him ticking over my head. Then I went to sleep. 8, 15
Ernest Gill, a donkey engineman on the steamship Californian, said that Captain Stanley Lord, of the
Californian, refused later to go to the aid of the Titanic, the rockets from which could be plainly seen. He says
the captain was apprised of these signals, but made no effort to get up steam and go to the rescue. The
Californian was drifting with the floe. So indignant did he become, said Gill, that he endeavored to recruit a
committee of protest from among the crew, but the men failed him.
Captain Lord entered a sweeping denial of Gill's accusations and read from the Californian's log to support his
contention. Cyril Evans, the Californian's wireless operator, however, told of hearing much talk among the
crew, who were critical of the captain's course.
Conclusions of the US Senate hearings into the Titanic disaster:
Captain Lord should have awakened the wireless operator after the rockets were first reported to him, and thus
could have acted to prevent loss of life. 15
The steamship Californian, controlled by the same concern as the Titanic, was nearer the sinking steamship
than the nineteen miles reported by her captain, and her officers and crew saw the distress signals of the Titanic
and failed to respond to them in accordance with the dictates of humanity, international usage and the
requirements of law. 10

Three Explosions Heard on Titanic

A Large Section of the Bottom of Titanic Blown Off 80 feet by 180 feet
Water Now Coming Up From Floor And Flooding Engine Room
01:20
About one hour before the ship plunged to the bottom there were three separate explosions of bulkheads as the
vessel filled. These were at intervals of about fifteen minutes.
Statement of passenger Mellers and passenger Barkworth:
Both declare there were three distinct explosions before the Titanic broke in two. 10

One hour and 40 minutes after the collision, per the inquiry, water was coming up from underneath the floor of
boiler room number 4.

Boiler room # 4 is in front of the second smokestack

(The orange shading should be in front of the 2nd smokestack, not behind it)
The flooding of Boiler Room 4 was not part of the process of the forward compartments filling and overflowing
into the next compartment aft. Rather, it came from a separate injury to the double bottom of the ship, entirely
apart from the familiar gash along the starboard side that was caused by the iceberg.
Underwater investigation of the wreckage found two hull pieces, each roughly 40 feet by 90 feet and lying
about a third of a mile east from the rest of the wreckage. The explorers said the location of the wreckage
indicates that the ship's bottom came off the ship intact and later broke in two.
These two pieces of the hull are the result of a sudden and drastic hull failure. The pieces extend all the way
across the ship from port to starboard. This sudden hole in the bottom of the ship finished the sinking abruptly.
The finding of these 2 pieces far to the east, marks the moment when the breakup began, and these 2 pieces
were on their way to the bottom while the bow and stern were still on the surface.
One of the hull pieces

The hull pieces are lying upside down on the ocean floor. The edges appear to be broken outwards, as if an
explosion inside the ship blew out the huge section of the bottom hull.
An inspection of the starboard keel showed no damage to the keel, therefore the damage to these pieces of the
hull was not caused by impact with the iceberg. 14, 25
Statement of ship barber K. Whiteman:

Four More Titanic Distress Rockets Seen By Californian

01:50
Four more rockets were observed at 01:50 and Officer Stone noted that the ship looked strange in the water, as
if she were listing. Stone told the London inquiry that he did not think anything about this first rocket. He was
curious enough, however, to use his binoculars to look at the other ship.
Officer Stone was questioned about additional rockets by Butler Aspinwall:
Mr. Aspinwall: And how many more did you see?
Mr. Stone: I saw four more then.
Mr. Aspinwall: What were they, rockets?
Mr. Stone: They had the appearance of white rockets bursting in the sky.
Mr. Aspinwall: Did they come in quick succession?
Mr. Stone: At intervals of about three or four minutes.
Mr. Aspinwall: Now what did you think they were?
Mr. Stone: White rockets.
Second Officer Stone steadfastly refused to identify these rockets as distress signals. The closest he came was to
admit that the other vessel must have been signaling to some other ship.
Both inquiries into the disaster found that the SS Californian and her captain, Stanley Lord, failed to give proper
assistance to the Titanic. 8

Crewman Robert Hopkins was in charge of lifeboat 13, which carried Mrs. John Jacob Astor to safety. 27
By the time she arrived on deck nearly all the lifeboats were off and they were just filling lifeboat 13 and she
got on it. Several men tried to rush in while the lifeboat was lowered and the ship officers shot three of them.
The Titanic began to list alarmingly while lifeboat 13 was being lowered. 26
I stated before that we saw the iceberg plainly, after striking, the Titanic backed away. When we rowed towards
the towering ice mountain I looked and saw the gaping hole in the side of the big ship. The sea rushed in in
torrents. No sooner were we off than the Titanic began to go down rapidly. The bow disappeared first. 30
Note - The odd-numbered lifeboats are on the starboard side, so Elizabeth Dowdell is looking at the starboard
side of the ship when she saw the gaping hole.
Several passengers said they could see the gaping hole in the side of the Titanic.
There is a hole in the starboard side of the hull at about the area of the forward well deck. 31
One of the passengers describing the courage of Mr. Astor said:
Colonel Astor helped his wife get into the lifeboat. I saw that she was prostrated and said she would remain and
take her chances with him, but Colonel Astor quietly insisted and tried to reassure her in a few words. As she
took her place in the boat her eyes were fixed upon him. Colonel Astor smiled, touched his cap, and when the
boat moved safely away from the ship's side he turned back to his place among the men. 26
Statement of George A. Harder:
"When Col. Astor had assisted his tearful young wife and her maid into a life boat, he tried to put in a young
boy, but sailors refused to let him in saying that the room was only for the children then. Col. Astor then picked
up a woman's hat from the dock and placed it on the boy's head and brought him back to the boat. He said 'Here
little girl, climb in' and the officers of the ship let the boy through. As the boat towered away, Col. Astor, stood
on the deck waving good-bye." 32
Effort was made to persuade Colonel Aster to take a place in one of the lifeboats, but he emphatically refused to
do so until every woman and child on board had been provided for, not excepting the women members of the
ship's company. 26
Statement of passenger Ida Hippach:
Mrs. Ida S. Hippach and her daughter Jean, survivors of the Titanic, said they were saved by John Jacob Astor,
who forced the crew of the last lifeboat to wait for them.
We saw Colonel Astor place Mrs. Astor in a boat and assure her that he would follow later," said Mrs. Hippach.
"He turned to us with a smile and said, `Ladies, you are next.' The officer in charge of the boat protested that the
craft was full, and the seamen started to lower it.
Colonel Astor exclaimed, `Hold that boat,' in the voice of a man accustomed to being obeyed, and they did as he
ordered. The boat had been lowered past the upper deck and the colonel took us to the deck below and put us in
the boat, one after the other, through a port-hole. 28

After lifeboat 4 was lowered at 01:55, Colonel Astor stood alone while others tried to free the remaining

One of the Titanic's stewards, Johnson by name, carried this message to the widow of Benjamin Guggenheim:
Mr. Guggenheim, who was cool and collected as he was pulling on his outer garments, said to the steward:
"I think there is grave doubt that the men will get off safely. I am willing to remain and play the man's game, if
there are not enough boats for more than the women and children. I won't die here like a beast. I'll meet my end
as man.
Tell my wife, Johnson, if it should happen that my secretary and I both go down and you are saved, tell her I
played the game out straight and to the end. No woman shall be left aboard this ship because Ben Guggenheim
was a coward.
Tell her that my last thoughts will be of her and of our girls, but that my duty now is to these unfortunate
women and children on this ship. Tell her I will meet whatever fate is in store for me, knowing she will approve
of what I do."
In telling the story the room steward said the last he saw of Mr. Guggenheim was when he stood fully dressed
upon the upper deck talking calmly with Colonel Astor and Major Butt.
Said one survivor, speaking of the men who remained on the ship. "There they stood--Major Butt, Colonel
Astor waving a farewell to his wife, Mr. Thayer, Mr. Case, Mr. Clarence Moore, Mr. Widener, all
multimillionaires, and hundreds of other men, bravely smiling at us all. Never have I seen such chivalry and
fortitude. Such courage in the face of fate horrible to contemplate filled us even then with wonder and
admiration." 26
Mount Temple Arrives But Doesnt See Titanic

Ismay Gets On Collapsible Lifeboat C
02:00
Statement of James Moore, Captain of Mount Temple:
We raced along in the night until we came to a large field of ice. At 2:00 Mount Temple was ten miles away
from Titanic. As we could not see signals I did not know just where to go. I had 1,600 passengers on board the
Mount Temple, and not knowing where to go, I dare not take the risk of plowing my ship through the field of
ice in the darkness, probably only to meet disaster. Had I seen any signals, however, I would have taken a risk
and gone through the ice, but at night I could not tell just when I would run into a berg. Receiving no signal
from any steamer I cruised around where I was. 22

The final wireless message sent from the Titanic:
SOS SOS CQD CQD Titanic. We are sinking fast. Passengers are being put into boats. Titanic.
Bride and Phillips left the wireless room after that message, after being urged to leave their post by Captain
Smith. 63
"I went out on deck and looked around. The water was pretty close up to the boat deck. There was a great
scramble aft, and how poor Phillips worked through it right to the end I don't know. He was a brave man. I
suddenly felt for him a great reverence to see him standing there sticking to his work while everybody else was
raging about. I will never live to forget the work of Phillips for the last awful fifteen minutes.
We picked up the Olympic and told her we were sinking by the head and were about all down. As Phillips was
sending the message I strapped his life-belt to his back. From aft came the tunes of the band. Phillips ran aft
and that was the last I ever saw of him.
Thomas Whiteley was a waiter on the Titanic. "Collapsible boat No. 2 on the starboard jammed. The second
officer was hacking at the ropes with a knife and I was being dragged around the deck by that rope when I
looked up and saw the boat, with all aboard, turn turtle. In some way I got overboard myself and clung to an oak
dresser. I wasn't more than sixty feet from the Titanic when she went down. Her big stern rose up in the air and
she went down bow first. I saw all the machinery drop out of her."
Statement of ship barber K. Whiteman:
The last man among the survivors to speak to Colonel Astor was K. Whiteman, the ship's barber. "He was a
pleasant, affable man, and that awful night when I found myself standing beside him on the passenger deck,
helping to put the women into the boats, I spoke to him.
"Where is your lifebelt?' I asked him.
"I didn't think there would be any need of it,' he said.
"Get one while there is time,' I told him. `The last boat is gone, and we are done for.'
"No, he said, Ì think there are some lifeboats to be launched, and we may get on one of them.'
"There are no liferafts,' I told him, ànd the ship is going to sink. I am going to jump overboard and take a
chance on swimming out and being picked up by one of the boats. Better come along.'
"No, thank you,' he said, calmly, Ì think I'll have to stick.'
I asked him if he would mind shaking hands with me.
He said, `With pleasure,' gave me a hearty grip, and then I climbed up on the rail and jumped overboard. 10
Titanic Breaks Into Two Sections

6/9/14 5:14:07 PM
02:15
2:15 AM, according to some witnesses, such as Edith Brown, Titanics stern rises higher. Big booming noises
and other noises start. Screaming and crying is heard. Some claim the stern rises steeply.
Just before she sank, some of the survivors say, the ship broke in two abaft the engine room after the bulkhead
explosions had occurred. 10

At 02:15, Captain Lord was notified that the ship could no longer be seen. 6
02:17
At 2:17, the stricken ship suddenly lurches downwards. The No. 1 funnel, the bridge and forward officers
quarters collapse. The weight of water causes the forward Grand Staircase roof to fall in.
Page -42-
Put Out The Light
6/9/14 5:14:07 PM
The stern rises out of the water until it is at an angle of 45 degrees or more. Just before sinking, the hull breaks
in two. As the bow tears away, it rips off some of the hull of the stern. The upper decks begin to collapse. No. 3
funnel breaks off and No. 4 funnel falls aft.
The stern settles deeper as it floods. Debris filters down boilers, pieces of the hull, the funnels. The bow, now
completely broken off, levels slightly as it begins its descent. The force of water wrenches the foremast aft and
on the bridge the wheelhouse is swept away. 17
02:20
After the first 100 feet any air in the bow section would have been compressed to zero. Terminal velocity for
large irregular shaped objects in water is about 30 miles per hour. The water depth was 12,500 feet. Since the
bow went nearly straight down, it would have traversed the 2.5 mile vertical distance in almost exactly five
minutes.

Statement of Second Officer Charles H. Lightoller:
I stuck to the ship until the water came up to my ankles. There had been no lamentations, no demonstrations
either from the men passengers as they saw the last life-boat go, and there was no wailing or crying, no outburst
from the men who lined the ship's rail as the Titanic disappeared from sight. Finally, the ship took a dive,
reeling for a moment, then plunging. I was sucked to the side of the ship against the grating over the blower for
the exhaust. There was an explosion. It blew me to the surface again, only to be sucked back again by the water
rushing into the ship.
This time I landed against the grating over the pipes, which furnish a draught for the funnels, and stuck there.
There was another explosion, and I came to the surface. I found myself not many feet from the ship, but on the
other side of it. The ship had turned around while I was under the water. 10
02:20
Statement of Mellers:
There were three distinct explosions and the ship broke in the center. The bow settled headlong first, and the
stern last. I was looking toward her from the raft to which young Thayer and I had clung. I was not far from
where Captain Smith stood on the bridge, giving full orders to his men, said Mellers. The brave old seaman was
crying, but he had stuck heroically to the last. He jumped from the bridge when he had done all he could. I
heard his final instructions to his crew, and recall that his last words were: "You have done your duty, boys.
Now every man for himself." 10
Stern Section Sinks

The stern pivots round. The heavy engines forward cause the hull to assume an increasingly steep angle until it
points nearly straight up. As the stern sinks, the poop deck tears up and the stern levels out. 17
Titanics stern slides beneath the waves. There are cries for help, almost none of the half empty lifeboats go
back to help them. A few survivors that were pulled from the water, remembered that it felt like a thousand
knives being stuck into them. More than 1500 lives were lost. 11, 14

The Titanic sent out her collision position by radio as 41 46' N 50 14' W.
The debris trail shows Titanic broke apart and sank at about 41 43' 55'' N, 49 57' W.
The Titanic sank about 2 miles south and about 17 miles east from the collision point.

The stern section is 800 meters south of the bow section. 800 meters = 2624 feet
The bow and stern are pointing in opposite directions on the ocean floor.
Two hull pieces are lying about a third of a mile east from the rest of the wreckage.
Also, they found a trail of coal extending nearly a mile south of where the Stern lies on the ocean floor. This
suggests that Titanic traveled a long distance with a sizeable hole in her. There had to be an opening in the
bottom, thousands of feet away, for this coal to escape from.

Statement of passenger Elizabeth Dowdell (on lifeboat # 13):
Many aboard the lifeboats, when they saw their dear ones on deck doomed, threw themselves overboard. The
last thing she heard was the Captains voice crying Every man for himself! All during this time, rockets were
being sent up from the doomed vessel. She heard revolver shots. Then there was one great explosion that she
guessed was the boilers. The Titanic did not stay up long after that, but tilted, bow downward, with a great part
of the stern in the air. She stayed for a moment, then plunged under. Her lights were burning to the last. 30
Statement of passenger Jack Thayer:
As she started to sink we left the davits and went back and stood by the rail about even with the second funnel. I
jumped out, feet first. I came up facing the ship, and one of the funnels seemed to be lifted off and fell towards
me about 15 yards away. I saw the ship in a sort of a red glare, and it seemed to me that she broke in two just in
front of the third funnel.
The stern then seemed to rise in the air and stopped at about an angle of 60 degrees. It seemed to hold there for
a time and then with a hissing sound it shot right down out
of sight with people jumping from the stern. The stern either pivoted around towards our overturned lifeboat, or
we were sucked towards it, and as we only had one oar we could not keep away. The assistant wireless operator
was right next to me, holding on to me and kneeling in the water.
Statement of Second Officer Charles H. Lightoller:
"I stuck to the ship until the water came up to my ankles. There had been no lamentations, no demonstrations
either from the men passengers as they saw the last lifeboat go, and there was no wailing or crying, no outburst
from the men who lined the ship's rail as the Titanic disappeared from sight.
Statement of Philip Mock:
"Many men were hanging on to rafts in the sea. William T. Stead and Colonel Astor were among them. Their
feet and hands froze and they had to let go. Both were drowned." 10
After the Titanic sank, Margaret Brown and several other women passengers took control of Lifeboat 6, rowing
"to keep warm" but headed back, against the demands of the head crewman, to find survivors in the water.
These actions earned her the nickname of "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" 8

Carpathia Arrives And Starts Picking Up Survivors

Californian Sees Carpathia Rockets And Still Does Not Respond

6/9/14 5:14:07 PM
04:00
Lifeboat 2 was commanded by Fourth Officer Boxhall. At 4:00 a.m. Boxhall fired a final green flare.. Lifeboat
2 was the most southerly lifeboat and at 4:00 a.m. was found by Carpathia 2 miles south of the wreck site.
On Californian Second Officer Stone and Apprentice Gibson were looking towards lifeboat 2 but saw only
Carpathia's rockets. The flares, visible at ten miles, were not seen on Californian. The crew on the Californian
were able to see the lights on the boat deck of Titanic, and their limit of visibility is 16 miles.
Therefore, Californian was between 10 and 16 miles away from Titanic during the sinking. 13
04:10
We stopped at 4 A. M., thus doing distance in three hours and a half, picking up the first boat at 4.10 A. M.;
boat in charge of officer, and he reported that Titanic had foundered. 10, 24
04:24
Birma says, "We are 30 miles S.W. off Titanic". 23
04:30
By the time we had cleared first boat it was breaking day, and I could see all within area of four miles. We also
saw that we were surrounded by icebergs, large and small, huge field of drift ice with large and small bergs in it,
the ice field trending from N. W. round W. and S. to S. E., as far as we could see either way. 10, 24
Testimony of James H. Moore, Captain of Mount Temple:
Captain Moore told of the great stretch of field ice which held him off. Within his view from the bridge he
discerned a strange steamship, probably a "tramp," and a schooner which was making her way out of the ice.
The lights of this schooner, he thought, probably were those seen by the anxious survivors of the Titanic and
which they were frantically trying to reach. 15
When daylight came and we could see across the large field of ice we made out the steamship Carpathia, the
steamer Californian, and a tramp steamer. The Carpathia had steamed from the eastward when she received the
distress call, and was on the same side of the ice fields as the Titanic, and could thus reach the scene in clear
water. I did not receive any word from the Carpathia, so I started after daylight to steam southward, and around
the ice field to the place where the Carpathia was. 22

Statement of J. Durant, radio operator on the Mount Temple:
About 5:51 we saw the Carpathia and Californian, with the Russian steamer Birma. There was also a tramp
steamer cruising about, apparently going in the same direction as us, but as she had no wireless installed and
never approached very near we could not find out what she was. As soon as I saw Carpathia I asked for news of
the Titanic and if she had seen anything but got no reply. Other ships asked the same question, but she kept
silent to all. 22
06:00
Second Officer Bisset was on board the Carpathia. In his statement he said he saw the Californian getting
underway about ten miles north of his ship, at 6:00 AM. 13
06:45
"Mr. Ismay reached the Carpathia in about the tenth lifeboat," said an officer. "The steward who waited on him,
McGuire, says Mr. Ismay came dashing into the dining room, and throwing himself in a chair, said: 'Hurry, for
God's sake, and get me something to eat. I'm starved. I don't care what it costs or what it is; bring it to me.'
I did not see Mr. Ismay after the first few hours. He must have kept to his cabin."
A woman passenger on the Carpathia said "Mr. Ismay was beside himself, and on most of the voyage after we
had picked him up he was being quieted with opiates on orders of the ship's doctor." 10
After being picked up by the Carpathia, Ismay was led to the cabin belonging to the ship's doctor, which he
reportedly did not leave for the entire journey. He ate nothing solid, received only a single visitor, and was kept
under the influence of opiates. 8

second officer (senior officer saved) one Berthon boat had not been launched, it having got jammed, making
sixteen lifeboats and four Berthon boats accounted for. 10, 24
We were steaming to the location of Carpathia as fast as we could when at 8:30 in the morning I got a wireless
from the Carpathia that nothing more could be done. I then turned, like the others, to St. John. 22
08:50
At 8.50 proceeded full speed while researching over vicinity of disaster, and while we were getting people
aboard I gave orders to get spare hands along and swing in all our boats, disconnect the fall and hoist up as
many Titanic boats as possible in our davits; also get some on forecastle heads by derricks. We got thirteen
lifeboats, six on forward deck and seven in davits.
"Before deciding definitely where to make for, I conferred with Mr. Ismay, and as he told me to do what I
thought best, I informed him, I considered New York best.
We have experienced great difficulty in transmitting news, also names of survivors.
Our wireless is very poor, and again we have had so many interruptions from other ships and also messages
from shore (principally press, which we ignored). I gave instructions to send first all official messages, then
names of passengers, then survivors' private messages. 10, 24

White Star Line Telegrams A Lie That All Titanic Passengers Saved
Congressman Hughes, of West Virginia, receives a telegram from the White Star Line: dated New York, April

"The Titanic in Collision, But Everybody Safe"
The sad awakening like a bolt out of a clear sky came the wireless message on Monday, April 15, 1912, that on
Sunday night the great Titanic, on her maiden voyage across the
Atlantic, had struck a gigantic iceberg, but that all the passengers were saved. The ship had signaled her distress
and another victory was set down to wireless. Twenty-one
hundred lives saved!
At 4.15 Monday morning the Canadian Government Marine Agency received a wireless message that the
Titanic was sinking and that the steamers towing her were trying to get her into shoal water near Cape Race, for
the purpose of beaching her.
Wireless despatches up to noon Monday showed that the passengers of the Titanic were being transferred
aboard the steamer Carpathia. Twenty boatloads of the Titanic's passengers were said to have been transferred
to the Carpathia...
Monday night the world slept in peace and assurance. A wireless message had finally been received, reading:
"All Titanic's passengers safe." With the dawning of Tuesday morning came the awful news of the true fate of
the Titanic. 10

It was the biggest financial loss ever suffered by marine insurance brokers. The value of the policy covering the
vessel was $5,000,000. The actual amount of insurance was $3,700,000, of which the owners themselves held
$750,000. 10

US Senate Hearings On Titanic Disaster

Ismay Lies About Pressuring Captain Smith To Increase Speed
Vice-President of IMMC Shows No Responsibility For Inadequate Lifeboats
Californian Captain Guilty Of Not Responding To Distress Rockets
U.S. Senate investigation into the Titanic sinking begins at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. The White Star Line
attempted to persuade surviving crewmen not to state that the hull broke in half. 6
The U.S. Senate Committee began its investigation in New York on Friday, April 19th.
Bruce Ismay, the first witness, came to the witness chair with a smile upon his face. He told the committee that
he made the voyage on the Titanic only as a voluntary passenger.
He said "The ship was not going at full speed, because full speed would be from seventy-eight to eighty
revolutions, and we were making only seventy-five."
Ismay said that he never interfered in any way with the handling of the ship.
Ismay was asked about his departure from the ship. He said: "The boat was ready to be lowered away and the
officer called out if there were any more women or children to go or any more passengers on deck, but there
was none, and I got on board."
Ismay said that he had not heard explosions before the Titanic settled.
Captain Rostron, of the Carpathia, followed Mr. Ismay. Why so few messages came from the Carpathia was
gone into. Captain Rostron declared the first messages were sent to the White Star Line, the Cunard Line and
the Associated Press. Then the first and second cabin passenger lists were sent, when the wireless failed.
Captain Rostron declared he issued orders for no messages to be sent except upon orders from him, and for
official business to go first, then private messages from the Titanic survivors in order of filing. Absolutely no
censorship was exercised, he said. The wireless continued working all the way in, the Marconi operator being
constantly at the key.
Guglielmo Marconi said he was chairman of the British Marconi Company. Under instructions of the company,
Page -56-
Put Out The Light
6/9/14 5:14:07 PM
he said, operators must take their orders from the captain of the ship on which they are employed.
Marconi said "The CQ is an international signal which meant that all stations should cease sending except the
one using the call. The D was added to indicate danger."
Thomas Cottam, the Marconi operator on the Carpathia, denied that he had sent any message that all passengers
had been saved, or anything on which such a report could be based. Cottam said he was at work Monday and
until Wednesday. He had been without sleep throughout Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and until late Wednesday
afternoon when he had been relieved by Bride. "Did you or Bride send any message declaring that the Titanic
was being towed into Halifax?" "No, sir," said the witness, with emphasis.
P.A.S. Franklin, vice-president of International Mercantile Marine Company, testified.
Senator Smith then showed Mr. Franklin the telegram received by Congressman Hughes, of West Virginia,
from the White Star Line, dated New York, April 15th, and addressed to J. A. Hughes, Huntington, W. Va., as
follows:
"Titanic proceeding to Halifax. Passengers probably land on Wednesday. All safe.
(Signed) "The White Star Line "
"I ask you,"continued the senator, "whether you know about the sending of that telegram, by whom it was
authorized and from whom it was sent?" "I do not, sir," said Franklin.
"The Titanic's equipment was in excess of the law," said the witness. "It carried its clearance in the shape of a
certificate from the British Board of Trade. I might say that no vessel can leave a British port without a
certificate that it is equipped to care for human lives aboard in case of accident. It is the law."
"Do you know of anyone, any officer or man or any official, whom you deem could be held responsible for the
accident and its attendant loss of life?" "Positively not. No one thought such an accident could happen. I think it
would be absurd to try to hold some individual responsible. Every precaution was taken; that the precautions
were of no avail is a source of the deepest sorrow. But the accident was unavoidable."
The committee reported its findings as follows:
General Conclusions
No particular person is named as being responsible, though attention is called to the fact that on the day of the
disaster three distinct warnings of ice were sent to Captain Smith.
J. Bruce Ismay, managing director of the White Star Line, is not held responsible for the ship's high speed.
Ice positions, so definitely reported to the Titanic just preceding the accident, located ice on both sides of the
lane in which she was traveling. No discussion took place among the officers, no conference was called to
consider these warnings, no heed was given to them. The speed was not relaxed, the lookout was not increased.
The supposedly water-tight compartments of the Titanic were not watertight, because of the non-water-tight
condition of the decks where the transverse bulkheads ended.
The steamship Californian, controlled by the same concern as the Titanic, was nearer the sinking steamship
than the nineteen miles reported by her captain, and her officers and crew saw the distress signals of the Titanic
and failed to respond to them in accordance with the dictates of humanity, international usage and the
requirements of law. Had assistance been promptly proffered the Californian might have had the proud
Page -57-
Put Out The Light
6/9/14 5:14:07 PM
distinction of rescuing the lives of the passengers and crew of the Titanic.
The mysterious lights on an unknown ship, seen by the passengers on the Titanic, undoubtedly were on the
Californian, less than nineteen miles away.
The full capacity of the Titanic's lifeboats was not utilized, because, while only 705 persons were saved, the
ship's boats could have carried 1176.
It was fifteen or twenty minutes after the collision before Captain Smith ordered the Titanic's wireless operator
to send out a distress message.
The first official information of the disaster was the message from Captain Haddock, of the Olympic, received
by the White Star Line at 6.16 P. M., Monday, April 15. In the face of this information a message reporting the
Titanic being towed to Halifax was sent to Representative J. A. Hughes, at Huntington, W. Va., at 7.51 P. M.
that day. The message was delivered to the Western Union office in the same building as the White Star Line
offices.
"Whoever sent this message," says the report, "under the circumstances, is guilty of the most reprehensible
conduct."
The wireless operator on the Carpathia was not duly vigilant in handling his messages after the accident.
Recommendations of the US Senate Committee:
It is recommended that all ships carrying more than 100 passengers shall have two searchlights.
That a revision be made of steamship inspection laws of foreign countries to conform to the standard proposed
in the United States. That every ship be required to carry sufficient lifeboats for all passengers and crew.
That the use of wireless be regulated to prevent interference by amateurs, and that all ships have a wireless
operator on constant duty.
Detailed recommendations are made as to water-tight bulkhead construction on ocean-going ships. Bulkheads
should be so spaced that any two adjacent compartments of a ship might be flooded without sinking. Transverse
bulkheads forward and abaft the machinery should be continued watertight to the uppermost continuous
structural deck, and this deck should be fitted water-tight. 10
Over the weeks following the sinking, hundreds of bodies are retrieved from the wreck site. Mr. Astor was
recovered body 124. When Harts body (musician who kept playing) is recovered on April 25th, his family gets
tributes from all over the world, but White Star sends the family a bill for un-returned uniforms! 14
British Inquiry Into Titanic Sinking

Ismay Charged With Urging A Speed Record & Ignoring Ice Warnings
The British inquiry into the Titanic sinking begins circa 10 May 1912.
Page -58-
Put Out The Light
6/9/14 5:14:07 PM
The London newspapers commented adversely on the lack of boats. British indignation was aroused over the
knowledge that an antiquated law enables steamship companies to fail to provide sufficient life-boats to
accommodate the passengers and crew of the largest liners.
London society ostracised Ismay and labelled him one of the biggest cowards in history.
His critics insisted that as managing director of the White Star Line his responsibility was greater even than
Captain Smith's. Even in England his survival was held to be the one great blot on an otherwise noble display of
masculine courage. A prominent official of the White Star Line shook his head meaningly when asked what he
thought of Ismay's escape with the women and children.
He was also charged with urging a speed record and with ignoring information received with regard to icebergs.
The belief in England was that the captain of the Carpathia had acted under Ismay's influence in refusing to
permit any account of the disaster to be transmitted previous to the arrival of the vessel in New York. Ismay's
telegram making arrangements for the immediate deportation of the survivors among the Titanic's crew was
taken to be part of the same scheme to delay, if not to prevent, their stories of the wreck from being obtained in
New York.
Another circumstance which created a damaging impression was Ismay's failure to give the names of the
surviving crew to the distraught families.
Ismay's actions while on the Carpathia were also criticised as selfish and unwarrantable.
"For God's sake get me something to eat, I'm starved. I don't care what it costs or what it is. Bring it to me."
This was the first statement made by Mr. Ismay a few minutes after he was landed on the Carpathia.
Reply To Charges
Mr. Ismay's plans had been to return immediately to England, and he had wired that the steamer Cedric be held
for himself and officers and members of the crew; but public sentiment and subpoenas of the Senate's
investigating committee prevented. In the face of the criticism aimed against him Mr. Ismay issued a long
statement in which he not only disclaimed responsibility for the Titanic's fatal collision, but also sought to clear
himself of blame for everything that happened after the big ship was wrecked. He laid the responsibility for the
tragedy on Captain Smith.
He denied that he gave any order to Captain Smith. He denied telling anyone that he wished the ship to make a
speed record.
He told of helping to send women and children away in lifeboats on the starboard side, and said there was no
woman in sight on deck when he and William E. Carter, of Bryn Mawr, Pa., entered the collapsible boat - the
last small craft left on that side of the vessel.
He denied that in sending the three messages from the Carpathia, urging the White Star officials to hold the
Cedric for the survivors of the Titanic's officers and crew, he had any intention to block investigation of the
tragedy. Ismay asserted that he did not know there was to be an investigation until the Cunarder docked.
Mr. William E. Carter, of Bryn Mawr, who, with his family, was saved, confirmed Mr. Ismay's assertions. "Mr.
Ismay's statement is absolutely correct," said Mr. Carter. "There were no women on the deck when that boat
was launched. We were the very last to leave the deck, and we entered the lifeboat because there were no
Page -59-
Put Out The Light
6/9/14 5:14:07 PM
women to enter it.

The deck was deserted when the boat was launched, and Mr. Ismay and myself decided that we might as well
enter the boat and pull away from the wreck. We left the boat together and were picked up together, and, further
than that, we were the very last to leave the deck. 10
Vindictive Bankers Tear Down Astor Mansion

Temple Emanu-el Built Where Astors Mansion Once Stood

There is a historical pattern of the vindictive bankers, wherein they destroy the house and other creations of
anyone who significantly opposed them and build something else where it once stood. Astor had two buildings
he constructed that he was proud of, his mansion and the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel.
John Jacob Astor IV had built a mansion in 1894 located at 840 Fifth Ave in New York.

Pierre S. duPont was elected Chairman of the General Motors Company following the dissolution of the
bankers trust that controlled GM from 1910-1915. At that time, duPont was an individual investor with 2000
GM shares. His election served as a truce between the bankers, who had taken control of GM in 1910, and GM
founder William C. Durant, who was by 1915 in a position to take back GM after having accrued a narrow
majority of the companys stock using the profits of the Chevrolet Motor Company. Durant, like George
Westinghouse was also targeted by the Morgan/Schiff cartel in the panic of 1907, and lost his company
to them, which was Buick Motors (which he took over in 1904), he then formed General Motors in 1908, and
lost that in 1910 to the same people, then he formed Chrysler in 1910, and in 1916 Billy Durant announced to
the GM Board of Directors that his Chevrolet Motor Company owned 54.5 percent of GMs outstanding shares
of stock and took over the GM presidency from Charles Nash, who had once been Billys protg. In 1920, he
lost it again, and in 1929, was suggested to him (ha ha) to help bail out the 1929 crash, and he lost all of his

oligarchy. These same bankers then went on to destroy Astors hotel.
