The problem is that you are asking the scroll bar for its maximum value 
before the JTable has notified it that the viewport's view (the JTable) 
has grown.

It may work if you delay the execution of the scrolling code until later.  
For example:

    SwingUtilities.invokeLater( new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            JScrollPanel.getVerticalScrollBar().setValue
                (JScrollPanel.getVerticalScrollBar.getMaximum());
        }
    }
