OR. GUNSADLUS WAS LISTENED TO BY GREAT CROWD (Continued From Page One.)
foot was so elastic, so responsive to his soul that it seemed to be a violin in tne nanas or a great master. I re member seeing him once in a rail road station in lonaon. lie was talking about a simple thing a rail road ticket to the ticket agent, but there was so much music in his .voice, there was such an eloquence in his speech, regarding this simple little thing, that I knew at once that I was tn the presence of genius. Queen Victoria's Difficulty. "Queen Victoria said at one time: "I don't know how to talk to Mr. Glad vtone. He always addresses me as if he were talking at a public meeting. And so it was that the great English statesman was compenea at every turn to fight against his perilous gift of oratory. The 3ople who knew him well and who had heard and been cnarmea oy mm were prone to re mark: 'Does Gladstone possess eloquence, or does eloquence possess Gladstone?' It was once said of him that he was 'inebriated by the exuber ance of his own verbosity, 'and this fling remained current throughout his life." Mistakes Due to Oratory. Dr. Gunsaulus told of Gladstone's determination to fling oratory aside and this he did, but it is a matter of recorded fact, that upon the two occa sions, the speaker said, that when he made his greatest failures he was be guiled by his own soul to flights of oratory. One of these occasions was when he was Chancellor of the Ex chequer; a period when he had tl ears of the middle classes of England and at the time that America was in the throes of a great civil war. "One word from Gladstone at that mie, said ur. uunsauius, "wouia have brought either a chorus from the angels of heaven or a shout from the fiends in hell. It was on this occasion that Gladstone, during the discussion relating to the civil strife in America, proclaimed that 'Jefferson Davis had created a new nation.' Gladstone never would have been led into this error of thought and tongue had it not been for one of those moods of creative enthusiasm which often overwhelm the orator." Dr. Gunsaulus, in following up this incident to its conclusion, told of John Bright's instant reply to Gladstone, in which the latter was told that even he (Gladstone) who might tell the condition of the finances of England to a penny, could not tell nor predict the fate of a great country, a nation which Bright proclaimed would come forth from its bath of blood under one flag and breathing the air of one common people. Greatest Speech He Ever Heard. i askea Gladstone myself, years after," said Dr. Gunsaulus, "what was the greatest speech he had ever heard and he replied: 'The greatest speech that my ears have ever listened to was that on my judgment day, the occasion when John Bright awakened me to my own blunder about your great America." ' In the concluding part of his address, Dr. Gunsaulus traced briefly the career of Gladstone through various stages, and gave a close view of his character in general. Gladstone was an evolutionist, Dr. Gunsalus declared .though he declined to advocate evolution as a general proposition. He believed that successful government resulted through getting the consent of the governed, and he held this as an evolutionary theory that was a gift of the eigheenth century to the nineteenth. He recognized that if a nation were going to fit out humanity with certain set laws that would last. it would be necessary to stick to the theory that the consent of the governed must first be obtained. Ha recognized in this, Dr. Gunsaulus said that if not evolution, then revolution and he termed the latter alternative nothing more than delayed evolution Dr. Gunsaulus' audience .which was completely captivated from first to last, and which applauded him en thusiastically and at various times, grew especially demonstrative when he drew a parallel between Gladstone and Roosevelt insofar as some of the most striking characteristics of both men were concerned. He declared that the great Gladstone of 1S56 to whom all England looked with a feeling of utmost safety and trust, was no greater than fhe Wednes-

Prof. Fess, whose lectures have been interesting throughout the week, gave what was unquestienably one of the features of the entire Chautauqua yesterday afternoon, in his character sketch of- Alexander Hamilton", which included many in teresting historical things of that and a later period. In he discussion of the Civil war. Prof. Fess held up to his audience Generals Grant and Lee and his characterization of these men of genius were of superbly elo quent. During the afternoon session Prof Fess's subject was "A Study in Ci vies and 1'rot. zu Delia talked on "Socialbility." Prof. Zueblin made no attemnt to define sociability. He .devoted his time to an explanation of the ele ments which enter into it and by dis cussing the good and the bad which exist in some of them, The family, the speaker declared, was the great social unit, but the industral world which had such great influence upon the home, and therefore upon the family, has its high place among the influences which develop and effect so greatly, the social life of the peo ple. Institutions and organizations which directly affect the social life were touched upon, and . the., Influ ences or each analyzed. The race question, the women's clubs, the lodge and the saloon were held un as important features which have a great influence on the quality of so ciability. l ne man most conspicious in so ciety," said Prof. Zueblin. "is the rian who has the widest range of sympa thy for mankind; the man who has Infinite ramifications for the love of his fellowman." Exclusiveness in any sense was de plored by the Chicago University prefessor, and he saw more good, infin itely more good, in the crowded fac tory, where hundreds and thousands of persons are thrown together, than in the sparsely settled communities where there is no opportunity for this great commingling of persons, and the exchange of views and ideas The influence of the industrial insti tutions upon society were regarded as most profound. The ethics, the habits and the thoughts of men are derived largely, the speaker said, from his occuoation. and hence the most conspicious influence in our so cial life is the factory system. With Its diversified evils. Prof. Zueblin declared, at any . rate had one great fact that men are brought together. The conditions of women and chil dren wage earners, whose numbers are increasing, were discussed. Dras tic laws are needed, th speaker contended, to prevent the employment of women who are mothers, for the ma ternal responsibilities are neglected. Child labor was deplored and its evil influence on the social life empha sized. Last Night's Session.

HiPPLE MAY HAVE TAKEN OWII LIFE
Coroner Admits " President of Defunct Philadelphia Firm May Have Suicided. MEETING OF FINANCIERS COURT WILL BE PETITIONED TO DISMISS ".HE TEMPORARY RECEIVERSHIP FAILURE STUNS DEPOSITORS. CPubllshers" Press J Philadelphia, Aug. 29. At the con elusion of a protracted conference with the directors of the embarrassed Real Estate Trust company Receiver Earle said that in his estimation the receivership will be only temporary, and that the bank will be able to resume business at an early day. He said it would take several days before he will be able to make a definite statement. He spoke optimistically, and said he did not think the failure would prove to be as bad as it at first looked. Thus far there has been no hint that securities deposited as collateral for loans were tampered with by the late President Hippie or that trust funds were misapplied. The hopeful view of Mr. Earl is shared by financial interests generally. It was reported an effort was being made to help out the bank with the view to reopening it within 4S hours, but it was denied by the heads of the larger banks. Some directors, how ever, have not abandoned hope of ac complishing this object, using their personal influence with the object of raising the required 3,500,000 to meet a similar amount subscribed by the Clearing House association, and thus make up the deficiency of $7,000,000 in . the bank's funds. One prominent banker subscribed $500,000 and others are willing to advance large sums. John H. Converse, one of the heads of the Presbyterian , church and a director of the failed company, is confident the church funds and investments are intact. Mr. Hippie was treasurer and custodian of these funds. It Is likely that an investigation of the manner in which President Hippie came to his sudden death will now be made. Coroner's Physician Read of Norristown admits that Mr. Hippie may have committed suicide. The few friends who attended the private burial of the late president of the trust company on Monday had knowl edge of his difficulties, but none of them' was aware of his greatly involv ed financial conditions. He was not. known to have been a stock specula tor, though financiers say he was one of the many who lost heavily in Con solidated Lake Superior company stock several years ago. Real estate investments seem to have engaged his attention and money almost ex clusively. Thi3 is borne out through hi3 connections with Adolph Segal and the latter's enterprises. Segal, his counsel, and District At torney John C. Bell held a conference. Mr. Bell said he had been called In by Mr. Segal as promoter, and he thought is entirely feasible to raise the $3,000,000 needed by the trust company, Mr. Bell said he was in no way connected with the case other than that he might aid in raising the funds necessary to place the company again on a sound basis. It is the expressed opinion of bank ers that the Real Estate Trust company does not .involve any other banking house in the city. According to John H. Michener, president of the Clearing House association, that body 6tood ready to advance all the money required by the trust company, provided the proper security was offered. The directors of the trust company are severely criticised by members of tife Clearing House association for their failure to acquaint themselves with the condition of the company and the transactions of President Hippie. The name of Adolph Segal is on the lips of everybody in Philadelphia. His rise from a toiler over a soap cauldron. . less then 20 years ago, to a handler of millions of dollars has certainly been' spectacular. He has figured for years as a builder of sugar refineries, railroads, apartment houses, handsome residences and modest houses for workingmen. Segal Is 46 years old, about 5 feet 10 inches in height. Directness and frankness of manner, a habit of going directly to the point of a proposition he had to present to a man, are said to have been the means of his success. He has made many friends and has spent money lavishly. George H. Earle, Jr., who has been appointed temporary receiver of the Real Estate Trust company, Is one of the best known figures in the financial world, and has had; experience in Itraightening out the tangle of a number of financial wrecks. A crowd gathered early at the corner of Broad and Chestnut streets surrounding the handsome skyscraper In which the distressed concern is located. Included in the -crowd were many depositors anxious for news about their money. A 'squad of policemen surrounded the offices and kept the people back. The corner is the most prominent in the city, and it was difficult to force teams and trolley cars through the crowd. There was no attempt at a demonstration. Fell prom Mowing Machine.
