He needed all his grubstake, and more, for he bought the sickly Morning Journal (circ. 77,000) and led it into mortal battle against Joseph Pulitzer's powerful World (morning and evening circ. 500,000). The fight drained his funds at the rate of $100,000 a month. The Journal picked up strength from circulation promotions and from some of the best talent...
