The piece traces his rise through Union Pacific, the Chicago and Alton merger, Oregon Short Line, and Northern Securities, detailing his tactics, battles with Morgan and Rockefeller era rivals, major projects like the Lucien Cutoff, and later government scrutiny culminating in the Northern Securities case.
