He was in the NYT at least three times in early 1914: Jan 21, 1914 select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=FA0F17FA3C541273... {very bottom} "$500 Prize for Lincoln Steffens. Andrew Carnegie, Jack London, and James Keeley, judges in the Metropolitan Magazine Shaw contest, have awarded a $500 prize to Lincoln Steffens of this city for the best reply to Bernard Shaw's "The Case for Equality."" Mar 6, 1914 select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F50B16FA355D1373... "Lincoln Steffens, the writer, won much applause by advising the people present to co-operate with others and endeavor to "cure the newspapers of lying" by boycotting all the big daily papers for a week." Apr 11, 1914 select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F50B16FA355D1373... "With the anarchists under Alexander Berkman, the Socialists under Lincoln Steffens, and the I.W.W. agitators under "Wild Joe" O'Carroll, each trying to gain prestige from the meeting to be held in Union Square to-day, Police Commissioner Woods took measures last night to prevent disorder.
