Remain of Innocent "laimus Scattered All About. New Tork Letter in Chicago Post. Wall street looks like an abattoir. The slaughter of lambs and other Innocents In that quarter has been terrific. The public hau previously leen making great sum of money in speculation In stocks. The street" looked with envious eyes on the fortunes reared by "rank outsiders" as a result of fortunate gamble, lt never likes to see the "outride" make money and looks upon such winnings as mere loans wmch Hill presently be called In. The calllngin process has been going on with great rapidity, and it is no exanKtratlon to say that at kast per cent, of the gambling rmny which has b-vn taken from the StocK Exchange and bucket shops glr.ee last fail has gon? back Into the hands of profession als n the two flumps which have occurred within the la-t thirty days. You never hear of outsldtrs buying steam yachts or building bruwn-fctone fronts and keeplrg them in th family, lt is always the veterans of th ktreet Use fccasoru profrionals who are enabled to supiort such luxuries. The veterans were pretty well celaned out of their hokling long belore the general advance in fetocks cuimanated, and on the last 2) ier cent, of the rise outsldtrs have been reaping protits from each other that Is to say, one j-t of bulla would sell to another el and buy back again at still higher prices, repeating the transaction ad intinitum. The underlying cauyes of both the recent slumps were Identical. Tho conservative banking interests became frightened at the fury for capitalizing expectations and for frand Bchemes of industrial consolidations, t was supposed that the first warning would be sutneient and that when the banks began a course of open discrimination against Industrials and rankly speculative stocks promoters would take in sail and adopt methods of moderation,- They did so for a while, and banks commenced looking with friendly eyes on industrials that could stand the test of careful examination as to the value of plants and the amount of business done, feoon, however, more steam was put on, and before long they were going it at a higher rate of speed than before. It was the proposed billion-dollar consoli dation of the iron interests that gave the bankers their second fright and drove them into the retreat of their icehouses. The proposition was too staggering for the conservatives and they ran for cover. For the second time the promoters found themselves a discredited lot. Industrial pecurlties were again discriminated against by the banks when commission merchants and brokers went to the money lenders for accommodations. Hardened old professionals took advantage of this condition to put out lines of short stock. Securities that had been boomed by clap-trap methods and on the names of successful operators and widely advertised commission nouses were attacked first and hardest on the theory that their prices having been kited to unsafe heights they would be the most vulnerable and would yield easiest to hammering. The surmise proved correct, and there has not been such a slump of wild cats and speculative stocks in many months as that which has Just been witnessed. The last few da3s have- been a veritable Waterloo for amateur speculators. They have left millions In Wall street, and hundreds and thousands of men, and women, too, for that matter, who have Imagined themselves rich are once more seeking employment and glad to accept old wages which tbey so recently scorned. It has been a hard season for the head waiters, the bellboys and barkeepers, and the Toms and Mary Janes who have been getting rich on tips based on conversations etween the plungers, eavesdroppings heard over the wine cup at the Waldorf-Astoria, ueimonico s. Sherry a and other noted uptown resorts. The entire aggregation is broke to-day. and many an ignorant wait er will feel like pouring hot coffee down the backs of his patrons whose words he had learned to regard as golden and the esence of market wisdom. An indignation meeting of bankrupt "help" Is now In order. hnarp and uely as the break has been, it will hardly bo a punctuation mark in the iecord of the country's splendid prosperity when history comes to be written. ro solid Interest has been hurt. Only a fow millions of dollars of gambling money has been transferred from the pockets of one set of gamblers to the rockets of another ?et. The development of the Nation's vast industrial, commercial and agricultural resources has not been interrupted for an hour. The les son of the break Is a valuable one. If lt will serve the purpose of slowing down the capitalizing of "rainbows" and the working off of doubtful securities upon a guuiuie public the tuition will be cheap. Indeed. some ot tne most oaring ot me proiesslonals in the street have realized large sums ot money on the break, which has apparently Just culminated. It Is worthy of more than passing notice, however, that the men who make names as bear" leaders In Wall street do not last. Some of them, dur ing long seasons of depression, sustained great lortunes, whicn, in most cases, were lost more quickly than they were won. Occasionally the death of a bear before he loses his money enriches a widow, but such things may be classed as accidental, chronic bears on stocks don't succeed permanently, for the very simple reason that they are betting against the prosperity of the country. Americans who think that way and act in accordance with their narrow Judgment inevitably fall. If they don't change their tactics or die. The philosophy which Induces many successful speculators In commodities to take the bear side Instead of the bull, because they think the carrying charges give them an advantage, is different-from that which governs the Wall-street bear. It is not always a safe philosophy to follow, but there are more permanent fdrtunes among produce bears than among the stock bears. A Trotest. Philadelphia Telegraph. It may be all right to send an American man-of-war to participate in a Confederate reunion, but a great many of our people do not think so. They are making no especial proclamation of their feeling about it, but they are keeping up a pretty steady thinking. A thing is either riht or wrong, and if treason was odious in the sixties it is odious now. We are making history In this direction at such a rate that a few years more may see the men who labored to destroy this Union equally treasured and honored with the patriots who tolled and suffered to preserve it. For giveness Is one thing, but the condoning of treason is another, it would nave seemea Incredible not many years aso that a ship of the American navy could be put to any such use as that which the icaieign la now devoted to at Charleston.

It was In ac count with a New York grocer, and the items were looked over with some interest as showing the greatly lowered prices that prevail nowadays for the Fame commodities. A" sucar. which was the white coffee sugar formerly used, cost $1.73 for ten pounds; a cooking sugar, called yellow, was $1.53 for the same amount, and granulated sugar was charged at li cents a pound.

New York Journal. . Charles Major, the novelist of "When Knighthood was In Flower," signed yesterday with Charles Frohman a contract by which Julia Marlowe is to play on the stage the Mary Tudor that Charles Brandon loved. She was a poetic silhouette cut out of a panel of azure. Major gave to her lines. colors, a language. One may not think of her now otherwise than in the Image that he has made of her. Julia Marlowe is to lend to her a voice; that is. her soul. Of a human being one may preserve every thing but the voice. L "Has Julia Marlowe the voice of Mary Tudor r Mr. Major was asked last night. "Absolutely," he replied. ' He sat at a. table under the ligrht In tne Waldorf-Astoria. He has large, clear blue eyes, dark hair, finely arched lips, an ex press ion of quiet streng-th In kindness. He is glad that his work is popular, because it pleased him to write it, and when it was finished he liked it. He said to himself at intervals In reading It: 4rWas that Idea really mine? How did It come to me?" He said: "I had written stories and essays for years. In Shelbyville, on the Blue river, in Indiana, where I am a. lawyer, I had no greater diversion than to write. I locked the door of my office and wrote after the business hour. "I wrote to please myself personally. But the romance of Mary Tudor and Charles Brandon was hardly finished when the thought of making it known to others came to me. This was five or six years ago. I sent the manuscript to publishers here, They made objections which were practi cally refusals to print the book. I threw the manuscript into a drawer. "I liked my characters eo much that I wondered why others would not like them. Of course, the success of the work compli ments my Judgment of it. It was not writ ten deliberately to be published. Perhaps If I had considered publication In advance the work would have'been different. I wrote It with a pencil, as fast as I could write. 1 did not think of polishing and repolishln pnrases. l tnougnt only of saying the ideas mat cccurred to me. "They came of reading a book of Hall's 'Chronicle of the Wars of the Roses.' in an old edition issued in 1548. I had always liked the writers of that time. They formed tne language ana tne manners. Hall s description of Mary Tudor and Charles Brandon captivated me more than any other tale, in writing tneir romance I had no plot set in advance one chapter suggested an other. It was all suggestlveness. I have read Scott. Dumas. Weyman. Hope, but they did not excite me In the desire to write historical novels. Hall's 'Chronicle did that. Dumas was my fa vorite author. But lt had always been my lmpres4on that his characters were stilt and needed to be limbered up. "I had the temptation to write m the tKaOk a great deal of historical matter. which It was. I am persuaded, my duty to avoid. If ono wants history one must read historical books. A historical romance should have vivacity. My aim was to marry Mary and Brandon, after obstacles, adventures, incidents that were developed while I wrote. I tried to avoid extremes of sentimentality and reserve in the love scenes. "Do you like them? I hope that you do not think I have any merit as a student, for I am not a student. I tried to put into the book the ideas or the time, not the stvle If I have succeeded In the view of those who are able to judge, I am very happy. Now I suppose I am to be an author instead of a lawyer, well, l am sorry only that I did not begin ten years ago. I could have done then the work that I am to do now. "I am writing a romance of the time of Charles II. That is another delightful enoch. I read Pepys diligently, of course. I read the chronicles of America that Capt. John may I ever make a historical romance of America's aborigines? l doubt It. 1 cannot enter into their minds. 1 have to be in sympathy with my characters." "Are you ever tempted to write for the sake of the technique of writing, like pater?" Mr. Major was asked. "Never," he exclaimed. That Is an Idea of decadence. I want to write what is in my mind as simply as I can. I must tell you or a rear that I had. My book was In the press when I received a catalogue from London. One of Its titles was Illustrious Lovers, or the Romance of tlary Tudor and cr.rir lancon.' l ttnt a cabi di patch far the boc. X auidrrel lext coca
