NEWCOiMB FoiDinn ritEsiDKM of tiik louisvillb & .NASHVILLE HOAI), Who Wna Committed to n Sanitarium Txvo Yearn Ako, and Who Wa Recently Declared Sane. NEW YORK. Sept. l.-The case of II. Victor Newcomb, at one time a xvell-known figure in Wall street, who has just been dlscharsed from a sanitarium where he had been for two years, is one of great nterrsL The discharge was ordered byJustice Geiserich, in the Supreme Court, the Justice tening the report made a few days ego by Referee Peter 11. Olney, who adjudfc' d, after a lengthy investigation ex tending over a period ot nearly a year, that the plaintiff was competent and able to manage his own affairs. The case has been fought bitterly and determinedly by both sides. The referee heard the testimony of nearly 200 wltnes.ces. The transcript of this testimony covers nearly 2,Cm) or more typewritten page?, and reviews the family history of the Newcombs for fifteen years. The opposing lawyers were Gignoux & Gignoux, with De Lancoy Nicoll as counsel, for Mr. Newcomb; Harrison, Seasongood &. Edwards, with Burton N. Harrison as counsel, for Mrs. Newcomb and Herman D. Newcomb, her son, and Swayne, Swayne, Morris & Fay for J. Anderson Hawes, appointed committee for Mr. Newcomb at the time of his commitment on Aug. 5, 1S03. H. Victor Newcomb was born in Louisvillo in ISM. 1 lis father was president of the Louisville fc Nashville Railroad. He was elected to the same position after his father's death. In 1SS1. after resigning the presidency on account of ill-health, he came to New York and established the United States National Rank, at öo Nas sau street, and became its president. Associated with him in the management of the barik were General Grant. Morris Iv. Jesup, William R. Travcrs and Henry R. Hyde. In 1S01 Ins health again began to rail. and with his son. Herman, he went to Europe. They returned in November of that vear on the steamship Teutonic, and It was deposed by his son that on the voyee over Mr. Newcomb became possessed of tho idea that Henry M. Stanley, the African explorer, who was aboard the ship, had designs on his life. It was set forth by his wife and son that he was addicted to the use of chloral. He was confined for a time In a sanitarium at Falkirk. Central Valley, N. Y., but after undergoing treat ment tnere ror a time was prououueeu cured and discharged. Mr. Newcomb owns a city residence at r.s: Fifth avenue, where his wife has lived. He also owns a country home at Klbqron, N. .1. In July. 1S01. his wife petitioned that he again be examined as to lus sanity, de claring her husband was not cured of the hloral habit. lr. Cyrus Kdson. Mr. Newcomb's physician, also testified that nis patient was using chloral to excess, and that his eccentricities were pronounced. On Auer. of that year he was taken before a sheriff's jury and adjudged insane, and was Hgain confined in the sanitarium at Centtal Valley, at which place, he remained until the following December. An appeal was made to the Supreme Court, and he was allowed to leave the sanitarium on parole, his son-in-law, Reginald H. Ward, bringing him to this city, where he stayed at the Hotel Grenoble. On May 1 following his attorneys petitioned the Supreme Court to have his committee, J. Anderson Hawe?, discharged, on the ground that Mr. Newcomb was able to manage his own affairs. The motion was contested by his vilV and son. and also by Mr. Hawes. through his counsel. Gen. Swayne. On May P following Justice Fitzgerald handed down his decision lenying the suit of Mr. Newcomb, but ordered that testimony should be taken on the case relative to the mental condition of Mr. Newcomb, and appointed IVter R. Olney of SI Nassau street as referee. , The investigation began in November of last year, and has been carried on intermittently up to July 1, when it was closed. Referee Olney, after giving the testimony a month's consideration, decided in his judgment Mr. Newcomb was competent and returned his decision to the Supreme Court, Justice Giegerlch signing the order which released the committee from any further responsibility and making Mr. Newcomb the executor of his own affairs. During the progress of the investigation Mr. Newcomb testified in his own behalf and made an excellent impression He said that his relations with his son for the last ten years were not pleasant. He declared that his son on one occasion at a dinner he was giving to ex-President Harrison had refused to come to the dinner table, much to his embarrassment. He also stated that when lie went to see Gen. Grant while the latter was 111 and shortly before his death that his son's behavior was not as it should have been. Herman Newcomb. the son, also testified as to the coolness which had existed tor a long time between him and his father. lie was asked by Mr. Nicoll as to his father's statement that he was always armed. He admitted that he carried a pistol, but that he had a permit to do so from Mayor Strong. He stated in reply to Mr. Nicoll's questioning on the subject that he had several lifferent kinds of weapons in the house on Fifth avenue. Mr. Nh'oll asked him if he didn't have a small arrenal there and for what reason he required it. He replied that his father had taught him that every good Kentuckian carried a revolver. The Mocking Illrd. From "A Summer Hymnal." In the great sweetness of it all there burst suddenly on me a Hood of the richest melody. I could hear it, but I could not see the musician. It seemed to come from everywhere I knew the singer who gave it forth, and the white oak tree he was in, but the mocking bird, like all true singers, is so unpretentious in his make-up, and so near the color of nature generally, that I could scarcely tell him from the big honest limb he was sitting on. Rut I knew well enough, too. why his music seemed to come from everywhere he draws it from everywhere, and he never pours it out twice in the same direction. Oh. he is the true singer! Watch him just a moment and see, while his little graythroat swells and puffs and rolls like miniature billows, and his flashing eves, "in a line frenzy rolling." dart about here and there, now at the earth, and now at the heaven above him. notice how his little head moves from side to side, pouring his song in every direction and varying it to suit every new and beautiful sight that Hashes across the threshold of the tiny chambers in his ey es. It Is almost comical to see how earnest he is not merely to sing, but to sing some new thin.g. And so he takes in both earth and heaven, and involuntarily pours out the impression that he sees. Ripen Them In the Sqn. Kansas City Journal. The natives of India never eat vegetablo food until the sun of heaven has kissed it. which they regard as a blessing-. Cantaloupes are brought to market as green as gourd- and allowed to rot or ripen in dark cellars anl boxes, tightly packed together. Householders may easily avoid this poisoning process by purchasing green melons and exposing them to the sun. for the kissing bh ssing. Have a shelf built outside the kitchen window for the purpose. It is astonishing how rapidly a melon will ripen in the warm air if ocasionally turned over, so as to expose all sides equally, and between it and the cellar-ripened fruit there is no comparison. Mrs. Austin's new dress is line as silk.

TONNAGE IS INCREASING

TIIF. RAILWAYS NOW IIAYK ALL TIIC FREIGHT TIICY CAX CARRY. outhern Facific Inanpfurntcs n att Method to Prevent Demoralization by Scalping of Ticket. The train records show that there were received and forwarded at Indianapolis in the week ending Aug. 31 a total of 2S.414 cars, 22,973 being loaded, an increase over the week ending Aug. 24 of 001 loaded cars, an Increase over the corresponding week of 100 of 2,513, an increase over the corresponding week of 1S99 of 1,503. When the larger dimensions of a majority of the cars now in use is considered, it is no exaggeration to state that the roads are handling the largest tonnage since opened to traffic. This is further demonstrated in the fact that, despite the large addition to equipment of thousands of cars and hundreds of locomotives within the last eighteen months, there is a shortage of cars and of locomotives to handle the business offered. East-bound there has been some increase in shipments of grain and grain products the last few days, but they are still below the average volume at this season of the year. Shipment of provisions, flour, dressed meats and produce exceed those of a corresponding period last year. West-bound, in higher class freights, business is in excess of last year; in lower class freights there is some decrease in tonnage, probably due to the steel strike. Anthracite coal should be excepted, as the tonnage in this line is unusually heavy in fact, limited to cars that can be furnished and power to haul them. This Is illustrated in the fact that the Lake Shore one day last week had several thousand cars of anthracite coal standing on sidetracks at division points, awaiting power to haul them. Local business is at its maximum, and so varid in character as to Include almost every article named in the classification. The north-and-south lines are handling more loaded cars than last year, the movement in opposite directions being well equalized. Local lines are handling a good deal cf Indiana, Ohio and West Virginia coals. The oldest in time of service of the local agents say they have never known a time when the situation was as satisfactory as at present. The table below shows the number of cars handled at this point for the week ended Aug. 31, and for the corresponding weeks of 1900 and 1S99: Name of Road. ln. im 1W. C. I. t t 562 44 511 I.. F.

The advices are that a broker named A. Ottinger has been employed by the Southern Pacific to prevent the scalping of tickets by buying in all that aru presented and then turnhiK them into the company, receiving a commission which would equal the money he might make by turning them over to possible purchasers. The scheme is a very simple one. Mr. Ottins;er is to establish a system of brokerage offices all along the line of the Southern Pacific, equal to the system of office maintained now by the regular brokers. His instructions ate to buy in the tickets that are offered at the scalpers offices, being as persistent in his solicitation for tickets as the regular ticket brokers are. Instead of keeping the tickets for sale again to the trade, as the other brokers do, he is expected to sell all of them to the general office and thus keep the low-rate tickets off the market. In casio the price he offers the ticket holders is not accepted, he is expected to take an accurate description of the ticket and send in the same to the Rcneral offices of the company, in order that the same may be bulletined to the conductors, who are therefore warned not to accept the ticket, unless assured that it is still In the hands of the original purchaser. Whether Mr. Ottinger will bo permitted to do the same thing with the issues of other lines than the Harriman roads or not, has not yet been determined, but it is expected that such will bft the case. The railroads hope through this system to start such opposition to the brokers as will prevent them from carrying on a lucrative business. Heavy Traffic Over the nelt Road. Tn August there were transferred over the Reit road SS.0O2 cars; for private switches, 5,00 cars were delivered, and at the stockyards 6,459 cars of live stock. In each case there was a handsome increase in business over August, 1000. Reit road engines handling this year 9.04S more cars than in August, 19U remonnl, Local nnd General Notes. The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Rig Four will be held in Cincinnati in October. The Great Northern is arranging to equip Its Cascade division with electric motors instead of locomotives. It is stated that SO per cent, of the freight traffic of the Chicago & Alton is local and HQ per cent, of its passenger business. H. L. Purdy, who has been ticket agent of the Erie at Elmira, will go to Chicago as traveling passenger agent of the road. J. Q. Hicks, in charge of the Rig Four yards at Indianapolis, left yesterday for Chapman lake, where he will spend ten days. An order has been issued by the management of the Pittsburg & Western prohibiting the smoking of cigarettes by passengers on trains as well as trainmen. L. F. Roree, president of the Raltlmore Ohio, was, the latter part of last week. In New lork in conference with Vice President Rea, of the Pennsylvania. The wages of section foremen on the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg have been increased $5 a month. The uniform pay of the section men is 51.25 per day. Sixty miles of new Great Northern line are to be built in western Montana to connect Great Northern lines with the Northem Pacific and to give an outlet for Crow's Nest. Thirty-one switching engines and crews are required to do the switching service of the Rig Four at Indianapolis, there now being two more in service than at any former period. A special call has been issued for a meeting of the Central Passenger Association in Chicago on Wednesday, a week earlier than the usual date. Some important matters are to be acted upon.. A. it. McCausland. who was relieved from duty as superintendent of the Atlantic City Railroad in early July on account of illness, is so much better that to-day he will resume his duties. J. II. Hannahan. first vice grand master of the P.rotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. Is visiting points in this State where there are divisions of the Brotherhood. On Saturday he was in Fort Wayne. Fnder the title of "The Four Track News'" the passenger department of the New York Central is issuing a sequel to the Four Track series. It i very complete, with timely notes of travel. L. F. Loree. president of the Raltlmore & Ohio, has recommended that all their lines be protected by wire fences. Recent accidents from horss arid ctttle straying on the track led him to make the" recommendation. Commencing Sept. 1 th Chicago. Milwaukee k St. Paul will charge $1 per day for the detention of all cars held on tracks over forty-eight hours from the time placed for loading or unloading, not including Sundays or lgal holidays. The C, II. fc I), announces that the coach excursion tickets sold to Buffalo every

Tuesday on account of the Pan-American Exposition are now honored by the D. & C. and C. & B. steamers, at the option of the holder, without extra cost. Investigation of the changes that will follow the consolidation of the Southern and Union Pacific fines shows that not over 141 men are affected, the reports that thousands would find themselves out of work being grossly exaggerated. A hitch is reported in the scheme to consolidate the Northern Pacific, the Great Northern and the Chicago, Burlington & Qulncy lines, and the fitting up of extensive headquarters at Chicago has been dropped, for the present, at least. A person well Informed says that whenever the owners of the Cincinnati. Hamilton fc Dayton are ready to sell, the Southern Railway, should It secure control of the Queen & Crescent, will be the company that will control the C, II. & D. The Florida train service will be restored earlier this season than last year. The Pullman Company Is now building complete new trains to run between New York and St. Augustine. This year it is to be known as the "Southern Palm Limited." Passenger traffic over the Lake Shore is so heavy that the company finds it almost impossible to furnish cars to carry the people. The company is realizing better results from its Pan-American business than it did during the world's fair at Chicago. It is stated that the programme of the managers of the Pennsylvania properties west of Pittsburtr is to have every mile

double track by Jan. 1, 19o3, including the Yandalia, and with this Improvement many curves are to be eliminated and grades reduced to a minimum. Charles M. Wheeler will to-day assume the duties of city ticket agent of the Pennsylvania and Vandalia lines at Indianapolis. John C. Millspaugh succeeding him as traveling passenger agent. He will continue to cover his old territory in what is known as the Decatur district. Within the last few days several engineers in freight service on the Pittsburg & Lake Erie, on which John Riley is master of transportation, have been discharged for infraction of the rules, and as the road is overtaxed with traffic it is making an opening for a number of engineers. George Stevens, formerly a train dispatcher on th U'ahaqh nnw nresident and policy dictator of the Chesapeake & Ohio, is making an enviable record on that road, and It is stated that the net earnings of the line thi3 year will surpass the record, so much more economically has the road been operated. The fourth annual report of the Toledo & Ann Arbor road shows that; the year ending June 30, 1901, was the most prosperous in the road's history, gross earnings being $1,754,14.11, an increase over the previous year of J32.t;94.20; net earnings, $44,955.61. For the first time the revenue per mile exceeded $6,()i.iO. W. J. Lynch, general passenger agent of the Big Four lines, returned on Saturday from the East. The Rig Four passenger men are much elated over the traffic they are handling. On Tuesday Rig Four trains turned over to the Lake Shore for Buffalo 1. 1- coach passengers and to-morrow's business bids fair to exceed that number. John R. Wheeler, master of transit on the Louisville Nashville between Rirmingham and Montgomery, has been promoted to superintendent of the Owensboro cc Nashville division, and E. J. Haylord succeeds him as trainmaster, a promotion from chief train dispatcher. John Leach succeeds the latter as chief train dispatcher. George F. Barr, president of the Philadelphia & Reading and Jersey Central, returned on Thursday from several weeks' stay abroad. The striking shopmen of the former road anticipated a settlement of their difficulties on his return home, but it is stated they will be disappointed, Mr. Raer saying that while he was absent the men had broken faith with him. It is officially announced that the strike of section men on the Canadian Pacific has been settled, both the railway and the strikers having accepted recommendations of the conciliatory committee. The Juno schedule, on which they struck, stands, and the men who went out on strike will be reinstated as far as it can be done without dismissing faithful men who have taken their places in the meantime. Passenger KnjrineR 211 and 212 on the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton are proving line runners with heavy trains. Whenever desired they can haul six or seven cars from Indianapolis to Cincinnati in two hours and forty minutes, and on one occasion No. 112 hauled four cars from Indianapolis to Cincinnati in two hours and twenty-seven minutes. So satisfactory has been their service that others of the same type will be ordered. Information has been received at Wabash from the general office of the Rig Four, at Cincinnati, that the contract for the erection of the new passenger station of the lino at Wabash had been awarded. There wero several bids submitted for the work, but the name of the successful bidder was not made public. The structure will include quarters for the officials of the Michigan division, and will be of stone and pressed brick, with the upper story of cvpress shingles. Complete the building will cost about $15.000, and it is announced that it will be completed this fall. Superintendent Goring, of the Toledo, St. Louis Sc Western Railroad, on Saturday dismissed L. C. Waring as agent of the company at Marion. Ind. Mr. Waring had been with the company several vear and was recognized for his services by having been transferred from the Rluffton agency, which he held several years, to Marion, the most imjortant station, a little over a year aaro. He is extremely popular and manv of the largest shippers express Indignation at the action of the superintendent in dismissing him without apparent cause. A year ago Mr. Waring was agent at Hartford City for the Lake Erie & Western Railroad. Harry Webber, the Cloverleaf agent at Frankfort, succeeds Mr. Waring at Marion. If experiments that are to be made by the Chicago Sc Alton and the Chicago & Eastern Illinois are successful the status of the locomotive firemen may be greatly changed. These two lines are now equipping one engine each with an automatic stoker, or firing machine. The device practically takes the place of a fireman in shoveling coal into engine fire boxes and distributing it in the same. The automatic firing machino is the invention of a practical railroad engine driver. It consists of a funnel-shaped trough, into which the coal is shoveled. In the funnel are screws that gradually force the coal into the fire box and distribute it evenly over the fire. The funnel may be easily enlarged so that the coal will go into it from the tank of the engine. By its use. it is said, the work of a fireman in this line may be entirely dispensed with. Railway men aro divided as to the result of the device in eventually displacing firemen from engines. Many maintain that two men will always be required on an engine. HIGHER COURTS RECORD.

LOCOMOTIVES IN REQUEST BIG FOREIGN DEMAND FOR AMERI-CAX-3IADE CAR PULLERS. Mannfactnrers Unable to Fill Orders Traffic of Railways Increasing at MarTClous Rate. PITTSBURG, Pa., Sept. l.-According to the opinion of railroad owners of America the exporting of American locomotives to foreign countries has produced many Inconveniences to railroad traffic in this country. The commercial traffic alon last year suffered terribly on account of the shortage of steam power to convey the commodities from the place of production to the place of consumption. The demand for cars all over the country was the greatest ever known, but few people were aware of the fact that the railroads had as many cars as they had locomotives sufficient to haul them. The matter summed up is that American manufacturers accepted so many foreign orders for rolling stock that they were unable to meet the home demand, and with the increase of traffic a car shortage resulted. That locomotives were as scarce as cars is proven by the fact that every railroad that gave orders for more cars also gavo proportionate orders fcr locomotives. The English people have criticised the mechanism of American locomotives, but it has been proven that they have had no foundation upon which to build their criticism. Despite all the fault that the English have found In the American locomotives, the American machines are doing heavier work and covering more ground than any engine of English manufacture. So far American builders have had an ever-increasing demand from abroad. This demand has, within the last two years, been limited by the willingness of the American shops to meet it. No general effort has been mado within that period to secure foreign orders because the American manufacturers have been unable to keep up with the domestic demand. Foreign orders that have been filled have been practically unsolicited. Locomotive building is sharing with all other Industries of the country in the great business boom. Last year there were turned out of the American shops 3,153 engines, the largest number ever built in tho history of the country. The production showed an increase of 680 locomotives, or 27.5 per cent., over the production of 1S99, when the building record was also broken. In that year 2,473 locomotives were turned out. In 1898 the American shops produced 1,875; in 1S97, 1,251, and in 1S96, 1.175. The export figures, taken In connection with the American production, are most significant. Last year there were sent abroad &)5 machines. This is above the average of two each week, which is evidence sufficient that were they not exported the traffic in this country would not have been delayed to the extent it was, and with the 505 machines handling the American tonnage the car shortage, which caused so much inconvenience to the American shippers, would never have existed. During the latter part of last summer there was a car famine extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast, and this was principally due to the shortage of engines. With more steam power the cars could have been moved from place to place much quicker, and in many instances three or four days have been saved on each car, which would have been equal to an increase of 12 per cent, of cars. In 514 engines were sent abroad; in 1S9S. 554; In 1S97. 3S6, and in lSf. 309. It will be seen from these figures that up to the time when the great boom in America commerce and manufacture set in there was a steady growth in locomotives built for export. This was due to the fact that the American shops had not nearly so much work from the domestic roads as they could handle, and naturally they were eager to secure business abroad. All the locomotives delivered in 1S9S were, of course, ordered in 1897. when the American railroads had not yet begun to feel the force of the business revival and the con sequent need of an increased equipment in rolling stock. The result of these conditions was that, of the entire production of 18:C, 26 per cent, was exported. In 1S97 31 per cent, was exported; 1S9S, 20 per cent, went abroad, and in 1S99, 21 per tent. Last year the export dropped to 16 per cent, of the production. Thus it can be seen that the American locomotive builders are endeavoring to take care of the domestic needs before accepting contracts with foreign countries. These figures also show with reasonable clearness that the American manufacturers, within the last three years, have had very little inducement to go abroad for business, but have had sufficient domestic orders to keep their plants running to their utmost capacity. The American manufacturers pushed all their facilities to meet the domestic demands, and it can be seen that only enough werk was taken from foreign countries to hold customers and met duplicate orders. This year practically the same state of affairs prevails among the manufacturers as existed in 1900. The American railroads are all very prosperous, and their traffic is growing at a substantial rate and orders are flowing in for new locomotives to handle this increase of business. Consequently, the American demand for locomotives will certainly be as great as it was last year, ar.d probably greater, and the number of locomotives built for export trade will probably not be any greater in proportion than it was during the year ending last December, and for the same reason.

GEN. BENJAMIN HARRISON

LOl'IS T. MI CHEN ER CONTRIIHTES SOME RECOLLECTIONS. Incidents Showing the Sympathies of the I.ate PreMdent -A Superl ItIitlcian and Party Orgnniier. Washington Letter in Boston Transcript. "General Harrison would have been sfce-ty-elght years old to-day, had he lived." remarked Louis T. Michener, of this city, last Tuesday. Mr. Michener was formerly attorney general of Indiana, and was long a close personal and political friend of Benjamin Harrison's. At the time of his death Mr. Michener was too much grieved to give any recollections of the ex-President, but this week he related to the Transcript correspondent some interesting Incidents which throw considerable light upon the phases of General Harrison's life that have not always been understood. "I have often been asked." began Mr. Michener, "if General Harrison was not very proud of his ancestors, especially his grandfather and great-grandfather, and if he were not the sort of man to lay great stress on the deeds of his family. I always answer that I never knew him to talk about his family, except when obliged to answer Questions which were put to him. Indeed. I have always fancied that he felt himself handicapped in his early career by the weight of his lineage, and that he was determined to rise in spite of it. 1 recall an incident In noint. which also shows the wondetful memory of James G. Rlaine. It will be recalled that Mr. Rlaine, in the j campaign of 1S84. 'swung round the circle . and made speeches in most of the Northern States. He spent five days in Indiana in the month of October, and was C.enerai Harrison's guest from Saturday night until Monday morning. At breakfast something was said about medals, and Mrs. Harrison arose from the. table and returned with two which she showed to Mr. Rlaine. The first was of cold, civen to Gen. Wil liam Henry Harrison, pursuant to an act t of Congress, in honor or his victory o er the Rritish under Proctor and the Indians under Tenimseh. at the battle of the Thames, on Oct. 5, 1S13. Mr. Rlaine read j the Latin inscriptions on the medal, im- , mediately translating them into English, discussed the details of that battle, and j spoke in eulogistic terms or wiiuam iienry Harrison as a soldier and statesman. Then Mrs. Harrison handed him a silver medal which had come through her family, and which had been struck off in commemoration of the victory won by the Christian forces under the command of John Sobieski, King of Toland, over the Turks, Sent. 12. 16K3. under the walls of Vienna, when the Moslem tides were turned back and the Christian lands saved from destruction. Mr. Rlaine again translated the Latin inscription, eave the date of the battle and spoke of its momentous character. He then related that immediately following the battle in the cathedral In Vienna, a bishop, whose name he gave, preached a sermon In honor of King John and his victorious army from the text. 'There was a man sent from God whose name was John. To all this, and especially to the words in praise of his grandfather. General Harrison was attentive, but remained a silent listener. HIS LOVE FOR CHILDREN. "General Harrison's devotion to children was always a notable characteristic. Ha not only loved children, but he made himself their companion. He would ntop and talk with them , on the street, show a marked interest in their games and amusements, and join them in their walks to and from school. Three or four sauares away from his residence lived a little fellow whose basketful of kittens so much annoyed his mother that she told him that he must take the superfluous one-s to the creek and drown them. She put them in a sack, gave him explicit instructions, and started him on his way. Presently she noticed that he had turned in another direction. Overtaking him she asked .'what It meant. He replied in a voice choked with tears. 'I know you told me to drown the kittens, but I couldn't do it. 1 am going: to take them to General Harrison, for I know he'll take rare of them.' Some day the letters and stories written by CJenerpl Harrison for his grandson will be published, it is to be hoped, and then the world will know not only of his affection for children but also of his ability to write In such a way as to delight and instruct them. "General Harrison was not only fond of good stories, but few men have, surpassed him in telling them. Many people are surprised to learn that he was master of this art. He told stories only when his mind was free of care, and when the company was small and exactly to his liking. Now and then he told one to illustrate a point in an argument or discussion, but usually only for good fellowship's sake. "General Harrison was a tender-hearted man. The popular impression of him is to the contrary, but the fact is that he was kind, generous and responsive. Men who love children, horses and dogs as he did are always tender-hearted. More than once I have seen tears come to his eyes because calamity had overtaken an oldtime friend. He had taught himself to hide his emotion from the world, and evidently believed in the right of man to have feelings and thoughts which lie need not blazon upon the skies. He was no gusher. His choicest and most generous emotions were for those entitled to them. He did not take the public into his confidence concerning his private affairs or feelings, nor did lie assume that the public had. or could be persuaded to have, any interest in them. He was generous with his money and with acts of thoughtfulness. but without the slightest display. He had a sense of responsibility which was abnormally keen. I never knew one upon whom its weight rested more heavily. Until a, thing was done, he could not relieve himself for one moment of the feeling of care. This was true of him in both his professional and 'his public life. SOME CHARACTERISTICS. "While to this characteristic wai largely due. his able and conscientious performance of duty, it also had considerable to do with the popular opinion that he was of irascible or uncertain temper, cold or austere. Those who approached him, or had anything to do with him, while he was laboring under the responsibility of a great duty yet unperformed, were frequently surprised and pained to see apparent indifference to what they had to say or, perhaps, exhibitions of ill nature, and many of thm left his presence feeling that he wis either bad-tempered or coMhearted. Had the same person seen him a few hours later, when the task had been finished to his satisfaction, they would have found a cheerful and gracious man. anxious to treat well all who came in contact with him. I have known two men who saw him in the same hour; the first one came away complaining because of the almost uncivil treatment which he had received, while th second one came away charmed with the cordiality of his receDtion. Retween the visits of the two men a troublesome question had been answered, a difficult problem had been solved the first visitor faw the clouds, the second saw the sunshine. "General Harrison was a superb politician and party organizer in a broad way dealing with men in bulk and with the expressions of great principles. He never mistook dead for living issues, nor did he select a weak man for an Important command. His judgment of the men he knew was remarkable. He saw nc place for the unclean or the unlawful, and every step which he climbed as a politician was the result of honest effort. When the little band of friends, having particular charge of his campaign for the nomination in lSvs left Indianapolis for the convention, he said to them: l want the nomination 'if it can be obtained honestly and fairly r would not receive it in any other way. I know you would not be parties to getting it for me in any other way. You may be asked to make promises of places and preferment should I be nominated and elected, and. therefore. I want you to know what my purpose is in this respect. I will not make a promise to get the nomination, and if nominated. I will not make a promise to secure the election. I wan you to know that I would not keep any promise that you might make in spite of what 1 have said.' NO PROMISES MADE. : "Frequently during the convention delegates asked that promises be made concerning places and preferments, but they were always told what General Harrison's views were on the subject, and no promises were made. Some of tho delegates even went to Indianapolis during the convention to ask G'-neral Harrison lor promises, but invariably they returned to Chicago disappointed. He was nominated and elected without a promise, and thus was perfectly free, as occasion arose, to select the right men for the right places as far as it lies in the power of a President to do. "General Harrison did not want to be renominated In ls92. and had the men who aw fit to oppose his renomlnation btcu in

MUELLERSCHOEN. a frame of mind which would allow them to believe the truth his name would not have gone before the Minneapolis convention. Jn August, 111. a prominent politician told me that he and Ubers whose nanirs he gave had met in Washington a short time before, determined to onpoye Harrison's renomination. and hail legun tho work of organizing the party agahrst him. My informant Mistreated that if the President would send lor three or four of the nun whose names he gave, talk with them about the approaching campaign. Indicate a willingness on his part to accept the nomination, and allow them to feel that he would appreciate their support, all opposition would cm so. and th nomination might be mado by acclamation. I promised that this iew should be brought to the attention "f the President, and 1 did so at the first opportunity. He at once yaid tht he did not desire to be ivnomlnated, b it even if he did wish the renomination h thought that it would be unwise to quiet opposition by making the leaders of it feel that he would be under particular obligations in them If they rlnngi thHr positions. He adhered to this conclusion in spite of all that could be urged by l;i. f riends. "As late as February, is:2. he ald to mn that he did not desire renomination; that Iiis family would regret it. that he was so constituted that he ould not have a peaceful or happy hur in the presidency; and that he would issue a statement to the public at the proper time withdrawing himself from consideration as a candidate. Rut this was not done, because his opponent began electing Iclegates who wert pledced or instructed to vote against him, and at the same time they boasted openly that they had made an organization in th party which would succeed in xreventing bis nomination. The President then said tc hi friends that he could not 'retreat in th face of an enemy," a thing no Harrison bad ever done, and that he would Met the future take care of itself;' but he expressly forbade his intimate friends, to take any steps in the way of making an organization in his interest. When the time cam for the assembling of the convention In Minneapolis, his friends wer an orgnlz"i host, while the opposition was under th admirable discipline of Senator Quay ani other great political generals. The renomination caused no elation in his ndnd, and his defeat occasioned no sorrow for himself. 'Th night before be left the executive mansion for his home in Indianapolis h said that, so far as he was com-erned. it was a great pleasure to lay down thm burdens and responsibilities of the office, and that he had experienced nothing but care and sorrow during his incumbency of it.
