How Carnegie Got His Start in Industry
Carnegie stood out as a telegraph operator on the Pennsylvania Railroad under Colonel Thomas A. Scott. During a line wreck, with Scott away, he sent a dozen telegrams signed as Scott to clear the blockade, defying rules. The superintendent asked if he knew he broke rules, and Carnegie replied by asking if Scott’s trains were running. Scott then made him private secretary, and years later Carnegie became Scott’s successor at age twenty eight.
