Highways and By-Ways of Lil’ Ol’ New York By RAYMOND CARROLL (Copyright, 1822, by Public Ledger Company.) ■

NEW TORE, April 11.—Jean St. Cyr (pronounced as if you meant It), with Mrs. St. Cyr, grass widow of James Rhinelander Stewart, and sod widow of "Bilent” Smith, the multi-millionaire, are re-breaking into New York society, Park avenue and Long Island brands. For some seasons past they have been content to grace the social pools of San Francisco and Palm Beach. Coincident with the coming of the St. Cvrs to the portals of Gotham exclusiveanas has been launched an identity campaign—the identification of St. Cyr as the sone and namesake of Jean St. Cyr, a cosmopolitan of brilliance, who, half a century ago, wrote dynamic speeches for American statesemen. Although he left none of it, this deceased St. Cyr was an authority upon the subject of money, and was the reputed author of the famous money oration which took the late Senator Jones of Nevada a month to deliver in the American Congress.

such an illustrious father, the living St. Cyr has two letters, one written by the late Col. Henry (“Marse Henry") Watterson, and the other by the late Congressman Joe Blackburn. Loth of whom personally knew the elder St. Cyr. The Waterson letter, according to those who have been privileged to scan It. states that young St. Cyr looks like the St. Cyr who was known and honored years ago In the salons of London and Paris and the legislative halls of Washington. The hiring of brains to write one's speeches is a practice that did not die with Senator Jones of Nevada. Many of the great wen whose names are revered had a "Jean St. Cyr” up their sleeves. Gen. Grant has the credit of defeating the South in the Civil War, but be had a chief of staff. Adams, I am told, who was the real brain that outfought Lee. Alleyne Ireland, who wrote the life of the late Joseph Pulitzer, having lived in the course of his thrilling career under all of the governments of the world, de-

cided to hang out his shingle, "Specialist on government.” Mr. Ireland has more work offered than he can begin to undertake—the writing of speeches for other men to deliver. Located In a sylvan retreat up the Mohawk valley, somewhere east of Utica, N. Y., Mr. Ireland on his typewriter pounds our the "corner stones of greatness” for n,en who want to talk about what they d* not know and places where they have never been. And the singular thing about Ireland Is that wild horses could not drag out of him the names of those whom he serves. Cannot you hear" him chuckle when running through the newspaper clippings of favorable editorial comment 'upon a speech that he prepared for a man who In reality only acted as its picture screen ? Power lasts longer when it is invisible and not abused. I In Forty-Fifth street near Broadway j there is a popular restaurant managed | by a tall, heavy-set man of unmistakable 1 Teutonic origin.

war with Germany, and was rendered at the time when “The little Welsh schoolmaster” was attacking the landed estates, of the upper classes, seeking to wrest benefits for the poor from the vested lniuterests. “Lloyd George liked our Sunday night tablff-de-hote at Scott's” said the man who knew him in those days. “He would come with his entire family. One night a couple of men seated near the George family recognized its head, and one of them remarked in a low voice to myself who was' attending the Georges, "1 will give a five-pound note to any one who drops some poison in that fellow’s wine.” “But having taken an English wife, and our children having been born in London, I lost no time informing Lloyd George whom I deeply admired. He laughed but said: “From now on you alone shall decant what wine I drink,” and this went on for many Sundays afterward. When the war started, al-

though German-born I did not sympathize with the ambitions of the Kaiser. Then the Lusitania went down, and all Germans were ordered to the concentration camps. I thought of Lloyd George and wrote him of my plight, signing the letter “Tour waiter friend at Scott's.’ In three days came my permit to leave England for America.” Anent the drink problem in New York a study of the woman attendants of the ladles’ parlors In the Broadway theaters and daneerles is interesting. In bygone days those employes were selected without any particular regard for their qualification. Not so now. Only women who are versed in first aid need apply, and in numerous instances full-fledged nurses have been engaged. It is surprising the number of ladies from the audience who need attention, and the danceries yield up an even greater number of victims from alcoholic drinks, and, what Is even

eyebrows are the approach of whiteness. Right now Mr. Livermore is essaying th<f role of market peacemaker. That was the part In finance played by the late Jim Keene In the latter years of his most eventful life. Whenever the big fellows got up a pool to put the market up or down or pilot a particular stock to the level of a “mellon cutting,” Mr. Keene was placed in charge of the market operations, with a guaranteed fat slice of the profits for his share. In appearance, Mr. Livermore is the antithesis of Keene, being most gentle looking and restful. Nevertheless, in market manipulations, he can spring with tie sudden surprise of a leopard. All through the upward tide of market values during the last year this slender, smooth-shaven operator has been the master-hand on the tiller of the good ship “Bull Market.”

The meeting between President Harding and Mrs. Livermore about a year ago at the Atlantic City home of Alexander Moore, was an occasion when felicitation* for better times were exchanged. Mr. Harding was seeking the cooperation of Wall street in getting business on Its feet. He wanted the help of the bear trader. Like Keene, Livermore had won his spurs as a daring bear operator, one that stalked through the grass of speculation with extraordinary skill anti cunning. Jesse returned-to New York from Atlantic City and issued a statement that better times were ahead. He ceased operations as a market raider and began his career as bell-wether for the bulls, and since then we have seen develop the most remarkable bull market in years. That is why a New York stock member said today: “Watch Jesse's blonde eyebrows—they are the barometer of Wall street Just now.”
