    The steelmakers adapted their mills to process the ore from the Mesabi range. Oliver broke with the agreement, and in response, John D. procured a monopoly of ore ship transportation on the Great Lakes. John D. sold his western ore holdings to J. P. Morgan for $90,900,000 soon after Morgan bought Carnegie's steel interests in 1901. [13] [14]
