Copyright, 18S7, by the Xnr York Associated Press. linen diverse speculation over the meetint c Emperor William and the Czar -will be checked by the announcement that the Emperor has abandoned his intention of going to Königsberg. It was determined to-day, after a lorg consultation of his physitfar-s, that ineteal of yenturiEg to attend the army maneuver?, it was urgent that tbe Emperor should return to Babelsbere. In accordacce with this decision the Emperor and Empress and the Imperial Court will go to Babelsberg oo, MotCay. The abandonment of tb Königsberg programme by the Kaiser haaaiieady created exaggerated pessimistic repcits m reference to his condition. Bat the farts are that he is in hi? usnal health, although he was samewbat staien by his fall of Thursday. I He rose this morning at bis accustomed boar and heard verbal reports of. military affairs H then granted an audience to 2arhl Von iloltke, with whoa he conTen fd for a long time on the recent review of the Guards. Liter he received Von üchelleudorff, Minister of "War and General Albedjll and at U o'clock he went out nr a drive. After his return he received, first, Herr Von Pattkaruer, Minister of the Interior and then Connt Von Solöerg. The alteration cf the Emperor'a plans i3 dne entirely to the representations of his medical advisers, who have all along been oppoied to his venturing to attend the Königsberg maneuvrea, which would involve great fatigue unütr the best possible conditions. And Iney well know that the Tumperor, once in tie field, paxes beyond tbuidance of his physicians and expo" Lüfelf with little thought for the results. vTbis happened at Kiel and caused physical crisis. The mo3t recent Instances of the Emperor's imprudence was at the review of the Guards, when he remained three hours standing, exposed to the tun and.wind. but without appearing to feel any evil eßsets. Afterwards, however, he wa3 hardly aole to be present at the bar: que t in the schlosa, and his fall after the oanquet was undoubtedly due to increased feebleness arising from over-exertion. When he recovered bis feet, without assistance, be exp reeled the fear that his doctor would täte advantage of the mishap aad make It a pretext to dissuade him lroxn going to the maneuvers. Connsunicst'ons froni the Crown Prince xirgtnily Huppert th8 opinions of tbe doctors, and their advice was also further fortified by representations from Count Von iloitie &Ld Piince Bismarck. It was only after Count Von Htltke's visit to the Em peior to-day that it became known (.that the journey to Konifsberg was ofL THE rOLITICAL ASPECT. The political aspect of affairs will not be changed by the abandonment of the meetlngwiththe Czar. The official pres3 has right ly insisted on the purely personal and family character attaching to the intended meeting, and that beyond indicating a temporary relaxion of Kusso-German jealousies, it bad no political a'gnificance. This view was expressed in yesterday evening's Eemi-cfficial Post, which supports the Cologne Gazette in declaring that the meeting would be simply of personal importance, and that the furthest going concessions on the part cf Germany would produce no lasting friendship with Russia. Prince Albrecht, cf Prussia, will represent the Emperor at the Kouvsbtrg maneuvers. Prince William will remain in JBeilin. The collapse cf the spirit monopoly ring gives intense gratillcation to the public and is especially pleasiDg to the Progressists, wno alone among the political parties denounced the enterprise. The projectors of the tcheiue foegbt till the last moment to obtain subscriptions which were firBt definitely fixed to be closed Monday, but the time was extended daily till Thursday. During this period negotiations were returned with the Bleichrodera and Mendelssohns, the projectors nrtn them io eupport the Echeme if it was shown that the diillers were unanimously joining tfce spirit oant, and tbe success of tue pro- i ject appeared probable till it.was known : that besides tie Nordhansen, the Eilesiaa I distillers held aloof. "When the project was withdrawn necessary adhesions were etill awaited. The shares ot the difitillerscora panes hava resume 1 tneir normal value and there has been a concurrent and heavy fall in prices of spirits. The di-enssien of the spirit monopoly has led to; the disclosure of the fact that Prince Bismarck is concerned ia distiltiag on a large scale. He owns distilleries at Varzin, Mkilcve and Wendieh-Paddigb, tbe annual output of which ia estimated at t00,CCO litre a. His interest in tbe monopoly led its projectors to ask him to join the directory which he declined to la on account of his official position. The Progre aais's consider the fa-lure of the scheme an indirect check on the economic plans of Prince Blfmarck. SOCIALIST C0SGRESS. The circular convoking the coming t cialiat consrre3S appeared first in the North German Gazette. Its publication waa a great surprise to the leaders of the party, who intended that the circular should be kept secret. The Volks Zeitung expla'ns this miscarriage of the Socialistic plana by saying that a copy of the circular, which mused its destination, fell into the hands of tbe police cf Lelpeic. At a private consultation of the chiefs of the party, held in Berlin, it wis arranged to plan the congress so as to avoid procreation under the Socialist laws and escape the fate of the df legates who assisted at the previous congresses at Wyden and Copenhagen and who were prosecuted on their return to Germany as representatives cf illegal societies. To tbe cornirg congress no special delegates nor association mandates arejnecesaary, as the congress ia ostensibly cp a to the world, but the assembly will exsrclte its right to exclude objectionable pereors. Tbe official papers reco?n:ze tbe skill cf these precautions, but ask why, if the Socialists are so attentive to lreality. they do not bold tbe congress in Germany. In reply to this question. Herr Bebell has written a letter, in which be asks: "Can It be supposed likely that the Socialists :would ask the German government to authorize a reunion where Socialist leaders will be the sole speakers, when the presence of one ot them suffices lor tbe police to dissolve a meeting?" Herr Bebelstates that be hopes to put ire congrefs beyond tbe reach of spies, besides shielding tbe sharers in its deliberations from the vengeance of the law against Socialists. The Catholic congress at Treves was closed with a discourse by Dr. Windthorat. who declared that the Centre party was oni'ed in Irs convictions and aims as much a ever and would renew all its claims hitherto formulated In behalf of Catholics. Count Eallr Sterin, chairman of the con e-reta, made a speech of the same tenor. lie indicated.tbat tbe peace of the Church and State would be nothing more than a Jjucs until the falleet exercise cf (ho

church powers, uncontrolled by the State, should be obtained. Count Biliestdrin gave to the congress the party motto Vlgilate Et Orate." Several speakers urged immediate legislative Agitation to obtain control of public Instruction. The eocgress separated without doing mre than aüirmicg the policy of watchful 8otvrise advocated by the leaders. V hen the Bavarian diet opens on the 14th instant. Barcn Ton Lutz, the Prime Minister, will report in relation to the King's condition. Baron Von Lutz and Baron Von Crailsheim the foreign minister, vUiied the King last week and fouad him in the same state as last reported a confirmed maniac. Prince Luitpold, the Regent Is reported to beunwilling to depose Otto, preferring to await his expected early death. The economy of the Regency is rapidly wiping out the debts of the late King. Tbe expenses of the court have tuen curt. i led, and a quantity of the aristocratic lumber that accumulated during the reign of Kixg Ludwig has been sold, realizing ample sums to meet his creditors AV6TKIAH TROUBLES. The Austrian Government is troubled over the hostile attitude ot the Czech and German parties iu the Bohemian diet. The German delegates maintain their refusal to appear in tbe coming diet, and will hold the proceedings of that body to be null unless the government guarantees protection of German rights. On the other band the Czech leaders accuse Dr. Gausch, Minister of Public Instruction, of favorirg the German element by suppresjing Czech schools and dismifsicg officials unless they essJst in the work of Germanfzation. In order to examine 1d(o the situation Bärin Krauss, the Governor of Bohemia, went to Vienna, where they held a conference with Count Von Tafle, President of the Council, and Dr. Gautch. The result of the conference was that the Czech complaints against the schools were declared unfounded, and was stated that no schools had been suppressed except where they were unnecessary. Violent scenes are tatirg plac? in the diet between the two parties. The main Austrian military maneuvers began around Olmutz on Thursday, on the same ground crossed by the Austrians after the battle of Sadowa. The German general Von Wald en see was a specially favored guests. He waa alio ted apartments in the Castle Laschkan, sear the rooms ot the Emperor. Marsbai Rheinlander, who is reputed to be the best Austrian strata gist,dirtcts the maneuvers Tho International Trara-Tays corgre33 is meeting in Vienna. 8venty delegates ara present. Neither the English nor American tramway companies are represented. The International Hygenic Consrress will open in Vienna on Ssoteinber 2. Eighteen hundred members from all parts of the world will be in atteEdance. Pnrce Bismarck will leave Kissengen on Ue 8:h instant, returning to Eriedrichrhe. The journey of Connt Herbert Bismarck to Esgiatid Is thought to be for the purpose cf attending the coming marriage of the daughter of Lord Londonderry, Viceroy Of Ireland. At a meeting of the Muskier Verband, it was decided to take measures to mske a piofes-nocal examination of music teachers compulsory. An Allgeroelce-Dcutsr.be Sprach Verein congress will be held in Dresden in October to arrange for the establishment cf an academy for teaching the German language. CHICAGO'S MARKETS.

"Wheat Leaves the Old Ent Corn Active ami Fairly liuoynnt Provision. Chicago, September 3. Special. The wheat market on 'charge has at last left the eld rut, and business showed a healthier activity. Leading operators agree that all artificial causes ot depression are practically eliminated from the situation and the markets of tbe world are now on their merits. Tbe dullness in foreign markets has given place to comparative strength and higher prices. The bankrupt stocks of California grain whose pressure upon the Liverpool trade was so much dreaded, E roved no load at alL English bargain unters greedily snapped up the stuff and were unable to get as much of the wonderfully cheap property as they wanted. The renewed talk ot "hot" wheat here was also without effect. Trbdeis felt that the thing had been discounted over and again, and even tbe official announcement that about 375,000 bushels in the Pacific and Neely elevators was actually "out of condition" resulted in no decline. Indeed the bulls claimed that as just that much wheat was thus taken out of the visible supply ami as the investigation had ms de it certain that the remainder is in prime condition, the whole thing is an argument for higher prices. At primary points receipts are still light and despite the heavy shipments from Atlantic ports the demand on foreign account is increasing It fite ad cf diminishing. English operators who cold short here a week ago hava covered and can now be found on the ball aide. Estimates on Monday's visible supply put the decreate at 1.000,000 bushels, snurliesrlci state ofatiairsat this season of tbe year. The amount of wheat afloat bound for the United kingdom end continent is cow about 8,0u0,000 bushels less than last year and the visible supply is 12,000,000 less than last year, making the total available supply less by cearlj 2,0t0,w0 bushels. Reports from the harvest Heids of the Northwest are as bal or worte than heretofore and the "early rush" of new wheat is not much talked of. Com rules active and fairly buoyant Recent advices from the southwestern corn section seem to confirm the wildest early reports ox damage and receip.s, although large, are not up to expectations, bince "Old Hutch" was sus pended be has been buying a good deal of corn through brokers. Local stocks are very light and some ahorta are getting anxious. Provisions are quiet but firm. The ribs which were passed out Thursday were all taken by Armour &.

THE RUINED OIL MEN.

Effect cf the Statdard Monopoly en the PeunsjlTiLii Petrclem Fields, fiicdzsms Res&ccss Gaicg t) Roia and Owners Livicg cn Small keines. No Cfcuee for Any Immediate Chings for the Batter in Any Sectios. Bow the Standard Company has Succeeded in Getting Bich f hde tbe Small Fry Grow Poorer An Cnjust War. Fittsecro. September 3. In a few days the Pennsylvania oil fields will be virtu ally idle. The producers are bankrupt and will shut off proauction as a last and des perate chance of relief. The regions that have produced millions upon millions of dollars worth ol petroleum are to-day little better oft than if the golden fluid had never been discovered. Sneriff's sales are the most conspicuous signs evey where. Splendid residences that were built by the lucky oil-seekers in tbe palmy days before 1885 are the only indications that prosperity once abided with the oil producer. Even these are sadly out of repair, and the once fortunate owner who found tbe roomy mantion too small for his swollen wealth now dif covers that he has a white elephant on his hands, and is content to occupy two or three rooms of the dwelling, letting out the remainder to lodgers. Men who formerly bad an income of $25, $10) aud $-'J00 a day from their wells new get a laborer's waes. Many of the larger producers are run ning their wells at a loss. Hundreds of drillers, tool dressers, pumpers aud rig carpenters are out of work because almost no new wells are going down, and these now in operation are worked in the most economical manner possible. Wages have not been so low since oil was discovered. If this depression continues for another six months those still engaged in the oil business will quit it, as many hundreds have already done. Speculation is paraljzed. Speculators have learned by sad experience that, ow ing to the excessive storage charges, they must clear 23 per cent, on their trades to come out even. With the operator and dnuer they are engaging in other pursuits. The magnificent Weätern Pennsylvania J-.xchapfces erected In tbe halcyon days of "dollar ' oil are cow little attended, and In the vast emptiness the occasional bidder is Btartied at the round of his own voice, . The consumer for years has been paying to the Standard Oil Company for refined oil one-third more than it would cost if the production and manufacture of oil fol lowed natural laws. The consamer has really enriched the great oil monopoly more than the producer, but because the hand of extortion is laid lightly upon him individually, he does not feel it. A few cents a week from each consumer m&kes millions of dollars for the Standard. With no excuse whatever, the Standard in 1S7G put up the price of refined oil from 1G to 32 cents per gallon and in 1880, it raised the price mm 8 to in cents, in both instances the purchasing price of the crude oil remained the same. The Standard buys at its own price ane sells at its own price. Other commodities are cornered, occasionally, bnt oil is in a chronic state of "corner." Should the Standard so desire there is nothing to prevent its putting the price of oil np to 50 cents a gallon for at least six months, as it would be tnat time before competition could be developed to cut down the price. It rules the home and for eign trade alike. The Russian companies, about which so much has lately been written, will not be serious competitors of the American monopoly lor several years, even supposing the quality of the oil is equal to that of the Pennsylvania product, as tbe cost of production and transportain Russia by present methods is too great to make the oil business in that country profitable. A SURGEON'S LIFE. A Page from the Experience of a Famous Fhyairian nnd Surgeon, From the Autobiography of the late Dr. Gross I have always maintained that it is im possible for any man to be a great surgeon IX he is destitute, even in a considerable degree, of the finer feelings of our nature. I nave often lain awake for hours the nicht before an important operation, and sufXered great mental distress for days after it was over, until I was certain my patient was out of danger. I do not think it 1b possible lor a criminal to feel much worse the night before his execution than a surgeon when he knows that upon his skill and attention must depend the fate of a valuable citizen, husband, father, mother or child. Surgery under such cirenmatancea is a terrible taskmaster, feeding. like a vulture, upon a men's vita's. It ia surprising that any surgeon in large practice should ever attain to a respectable old age, so great are the wear and tear of mmd and body. The world has seen many a sad picture. I will draw one of the surgeon. It ia midday; tbe sun is bright and beautiful; all nature is redolent of jay; men and women crowd the street, arrayed In their best, and all, apparently, is peace and happiness within and without, in a large house, al most overhanging this street so full of life and frayety, lies upon a couch an emacia ted fjguie, once one of tbe sweetest and loveliest of her sex, a confiding and affec tionate wife, and the adored mother of numerous children, the subject of a frightful duease of one of her limbs, or, it may be, of her jaw, If not a still more impor tant part ox her body, in an adjoining room la tne surceon. witn ms assistants spreading out his instruments and gettin tnings In readiness lor the im pending operation. He assigns to each his appropriate place. Uie administers chloroform: another takes cbarge of the limb; one screws down the tourniquet upon the principal artery, and another holds himself in readiness to follow tbe knife with his sponee. The flaps are soon formed, the bone severed, the vessels tied, and the huge wound approximated The woman is pale and ghastly, the pulse hardly perceptible, tbe skin wet with clammy perspiration, the voice husky, the aicht indistinct. Same one whispers in to the ear of the busy surgeon, "ine ps tie n t, I f ear, is dy i r g.'T Res iorati ves are administered, the pulse gradually rises, and after a few hours of hard work and terrible anxiety reaction occurs. Tbe poor woman waa only faint from the joint in finenc? of the anscsthatic shock and loss of blood. An assistant, a kind of sentinel, Ii placed as a guard over her. with inatruc tions to watch her with the closest care, and to send word tbt moment the slightest charge for the worse is perceived. The surreon goes about his business. visits other patients on the way, and at length, long after the usual hour, he sits down, worried and exhausted, to his co'd and comfortlees meal, with a mouth almost as dry and a voice as husky as his patient's. He eats mechanically, exchanges hardly a word with any member of his family, and sullenly retires to his study, to prescribe for his patients never, during all this time, forgetting the poor mutilated object he left a few hours ago. He is about to he down to get a moment's repose after the severe toll of the day, when suddenly he hears a loud ring of the bell, and a servant, prtathltea with excitement, begs hit im

mediate presence at the sick chamber with the exclamation, "They think Mrs. is dying." He hurries to the scene with rapid pace and anxious feeling. The stump is of a crimson color, and the patient liea in a profound swoon. An artery has suddenly given way; the exhaustion is extreme; cordials and stimulants are at once brought into requisition, tbe dressings are removed, and the recueant vessel ia promptly secured. The vital current ebos and üjws. Reaction is still more tardy tban before, aod it is not until a late hour of the night that the surgeon, literally worn out in mind and body, retires to his home in search of repcee. Does he sleep? He tries but he can not close his eyes. His mind is with his patient; he hears every footstep upon the pavement under his window, and is in momentary expectation of the ringing of the night-bell. He Is disturbed by the wildest fancies, he sees the most terrific objects, and, as he rises early in the morning to hasten to his patient's chamber, he feels that he has been cheated of the rest of which he stood so much in need. Is this picture overdrawn T I have sat for it a thousand times, and there is not an educated, conscienticus surgeon that will not certify to its accuracy. FORTUNES FOR PRINTERS.

Fliifeh Days For Followers of the Art Preservative in Colorado. A Denver letter to tha New York Mail and Express gives some interesting reminiscences of the old days in that section, and the ups and downs of frontier life. There was a great rush for job printing, and prices were steep. They got $10 per 1,000 for cards, letter-heads, envelopes, and to on, and, as stock was scarce and they wanted to accommodate every body, they gave only 200 or 300 cards or letter-heads, as the case might be, to the 1,000. They were soon taking in between $500 and $600 a day for job work, aad in exciting times they Lad to keep the press running as late as 12 o'clock at night to supply the demand for papers. An amusing story Is told by Col. Arkins, which illustrates the go-as-you-please manner in which they charged for work. One evening as the men were washing ir:to go home a etrangr dropped In and said he wanted a job of printing done, and he wanted it that night. CoL Arkins told him it would be impossible to let him have it, but he insisted that he must have It, and expressed a willingness to pay liberally. He explained what be wanted ten cards the siza of playing cards, nine witn tne numbers on tnem from one to nine, and then a single one with 0 on V. The job was taken, and they were to send the cards and bill to Tom Kemp's saloon acd gambling hall, where the stranger would be waiting for them at 9 o clock. They took a planer and mallet and printed tbe cards in nve minutes, men Arkiiis, Bamell and Davis went to supper. "What'Il we tax him for that job?" Da vis ssked. "How will $10 do?" inquired Bamell. "or would he think it too much?" "Ten nothings!" said Arkins. "Why, charge something for our trouble make out a Din for Davis and Burnell) were afraid, bnt the bill was made out, and Arkins agreed to collect It. He went to Tom Kemp's saloon at 9 o'clock, and the stranger was there. "Have you eot 'em 7" he asked, coming close to Arkins and whispering in his ear. "les," was the wniepered answer. "Where are they?" "Here." A thin package exchaneed hands, and the gambler put them into his pocket. 'How much?" ' Twenty-five dollars." The money was counted out, and Arkins receipted the bill and turned to go, when the stranger caught his arm and said: "Look a-here, Cap'n ; I'm a thief I'm a (jambler; that's the way 1 rasie my livln , tut, say, isn't this a leeue high .MI k 4 Itonglt On the Cliaplain. I re w York Tribune. J Gen. X. P. Banka tells a story about one of his army chaplains which never fails to "bring down" the U. A. K. camp-nres. The chaplains of the regiments during the war had charge of the malls for the regiments to which they were attached. The mail for the regiment ot this particular chaplain had not come to hand for many dsva. The regiment was out of the line of communication. Every day from onehalf to two-thirds of tbe Boidier boys hied up to the chaplain's tent with such stereotyped inquiriea as thee: "Any mail yet, chaplain?" ' "Have you heard from the mail?" "Do you know when the mails will comer' "What do you think is delaying the mail?" The good man was so pestered with Inquiries that he had no time to prepare his weekly sermon. He was oongea io spend ail his time in explaining that he had no mail, that he bad heard nothing about the mail, and that he knew nothing about the mail. It occurred to him that he might put an end to his troubles by a sign. Procuring the bottom of an old hard-taclr box he marked it with charcoal and nailed it on a tree in froni of his tent bo that all might see this notico: THE CDArXAIN POES KOTK IfOW WUE5 THE MAIL WILL ARRIVE. The next anxious inquirer who carne along was a reckless young wag. He gazed for a while at the notice, an! discovering the piece of charcoal which the chapalin had dropped to the ground at the completion of the sign, he seized it and added these words: AID BE DON'T CA UK A D W. The chaplain took in Ue sign and never put out another. A Whole-Souled Invitation. frortland Oregonianl Yon of the East who are bawlinc: "land monopolv" just look this way.

IFrora the Providence JournaL If a visible line could be drawn between the successful and unsuccessful men of our generation we should be surprised in seeing how.much the larger proportion are nr. on tne wrong side. Tke msiority cf men are failures. Every profession and avenue of business is crowded with them. And this is the more surprising when we Bee now easily others appear to succeed, aa li success were really an easy thing to attain. It is easy, if only a few simple laws are obeyed. It is not a matter of luck, but of u.erit. In the locg run a man earns what he gets, and if he fails it is because he has earned failure. The exceptions of this just law of God are lets numerous than they appear. II we could see the hidden causes, we should nnd that the lucky accident has come to the man who from some peculiar merit deserved it The unlucky man has always to explain how he happened to be in the way of ill-luck, and the explanation is usually an accusation. Nature in the main follows Napoleon's maxim, and gives tne tool 8 to mm wno can use them, and is not alow in taking them away from him who can cot. Failure for the most part means that a man is trying to use tools that be w s never intended to handle and that he should lose no time in getting hold of others sometimes a higher class of implements, but too often very mach lower. Nature evidently never meant that Grant should be a tanner, nor that Riche lieu should be a poet, having very different work for both. Precisely so it is througn all the departments of life. A man has his work appointed him before he is born. Ine nrst requisite of success, therefore.ia the right choice of an occupation. Nature makes few mistakes, and she has fitted every one for some special work in life. "What am I fitted for?" is the most esseotial question a man baa to answer. Answered correctly one will have nature's assistance in everything he does, and his work will be done easily, and without any ceedlees friction; answered wrongly and he will have her continual opposition and protest, until he is an apparent, if not a self-confessed failure. There was a deep truth in the old demand that a candidate for the ministry should be called; but such call is always a natural one, and consist i in fitness. The came call is made from all directions. "Called to be a priest forever" is not truer of one than called to be a merchant, general, editor or statesman, was of fetewart Urant, Katkonor Edmund Burke. and they would have had little success without the call. h.ven if called to bs a hewer of stone or drawer of water, a man's highest possible success lies in goine where he ia called. It is for lack of heeding this that we have the incompetence and failure so frequent In life, men vainly tr? ids to do What they were not meant to d, aud only learning in tbe bitter school of experience that so success is possible there. The highest aim of education ought to be to teach a young man what he is best fitted for. jNo man is educated until he has learned this. Many never learn it, having to learn, however, by very severe discipline, what they are not fitted for. Another essential element of success is faithfulness. The practical world puts a premium upon good workmanship. This quality alone is well-nigh sufficient to les -i any one into the highest positions in lite. It may be eafely said that every business man Is at all times on the watch for persons who can invariably be trusted to do work well. Kspecially is this true of positions of honor and trust. They are open to him who in some lower sphere has proved himself trustworthy. Any one who shows even an average capacity for his work and will do it with absolute faithfulness, equally attentive to small details, will speedily find the day too short lor the honorable and remunerative work that men invite him to do. It ia at all times false that there is no work to be found. Only for the untrustworthy there is no employment, and ought to be none. Plenty of werk with good wages and increasing prosperity are the certain rewards of faithfulres. Let any j-onng man start in life w ith the determination to put the best that he has into the discharge of everjr duty and some of the best things in life will eventually become his own. There is still "room at the top," and faithfulness is one ot the essential conditions of ascent Nor can any one succeed at last in any sphere of life without a degree of piety, in its order and more beautiful sense of habitual reverence toward nature and her laws. This is not the teaching of the Christian religion only, but equally of all religion and the experience of mankind. The elements of success are moral mainly, and absolute obedience to moral laws is eesential to the preservation of a clear head and sound judgment. Whoever is not obedient will sooner or la ter find that he has been sowing the wind only to reap a whirlwind, which will mar if tot wreck bis fortunes when he least ex pects. What the mass of men most need to learn that is the elements of success and failure both lie in themselves. Either one is within our reach ; the one bearing immense rtwards, End the other terrible penalties. 100,000 Vtar for Fnn. IXcw York Special to Chicago Times. J Ly ing in a comfortable room on the sec ond noor of the United mates Hotel, in Newark, with his leg broken, is a middle cged man, who most have had a good deal of fun, euch as it waa. He has spent a large fortune in seven yeara at tne rate ot $100,000 a year, and new ha9 nothing with which to pay bis board or for medical attendance. His name is Andrew Browne, and he says he ia the eldest eon of Obadiah Browne, once Congressman from S taten Island. Andrew was well known at one time in this city. He lived in grand style at tbe beet hotels. His grandfather bequeathed him property in John street and other parts of tbe city to the value of $700,000. He also left him considerable property in New Jersey, all of which Andrew converted first in to cash and then into the highest kind of livipg. He formed a habit of going out with $1,000 and coming back with empty pockets two or three times a week. Women would get the greater part of the money, and they alwaya left him in a condition that rendered him oblivious of where the funds rent. After dissipating all of his wealth, even to small remnants of property in th claypits of Middlesex County, New Jersey, Bowne drifted into Newark, looking like a tramp, and applied for help to Judge Meeker, who was an acquaintance of his father. Browne finally drifted away from Newark and found shelter with a family at Whippanv, Morris County. When sober and itell dressed he is a rather fine looking fellow. He is tall and has broad shoulders, straight limDs and an intelligent countenance. His full beard is tinged with gray, and his eyes are large and black. He said to day while lyinz In bed at the hotel: "This is my own fault. I have been on another spree. I went to New York a week ago and received $100 from the lawyers in a case of which I knew something. They paid me for what infor mation I gave them, and asked me to stay away from the city. I came to Newark that night, and. after paying some debts, left $25 with the clerk at the Continental HoteL That is about all I can remember. until I woke up this morning in thia room." Browne was taken to the hotel by a cab driver. He will be removed t) the olty hospital,
