Awaiting Vanaerbiie'o Death.

l"Je7o7nes" NaO York Lett er in Chicago Tn
Speaking OF the departed king OF fabrics,
here 10 the living king OF tr Ans portatlon,
Vanderbilt, gradually rising again into life.
II begins to look as IL he might 60 out, aad
railroads. What lark IL would be II the
commodore, on whose death brokers have
been gambling for months, should turn the
tables and once more put his hook into the
jaws OF that Wall street behemoth! The
newspapers, by the way, are getting very
tired of keeping the old mans obituary 10
type, and they are becoming still more tired
OF keeping q brigade OF futile reporters
around his house. The Vanderbilt illness
will cost almost as much Is the Beecher
three reporters whose exclusive business il
IL to "do" Vanderbilt. They serve In relays
OF eight hours each, and one for each paperis
constantly on guard. There are some fifteen
at time In one aggregate. At first they
hung around the front gate, QUESTIONED the
the butcher, baker, candlestick maker and
others, or climbed the lamppost In vivacious
rivalry and obtained furtive glimpses
through the blind when zephyr stirred the
curtain c,.s H. Nov they occupy two rooms as,
they have festive, not to say o convivial
time. They despatch picket OF two TO pa
troll In front OF the house and get the news,
and the rest send out for peanuts, ginger ale,
lager, and even more enticing luxuries, and
improves the environment. When the COM
modore looks through his blinds nov .insIea
OF seeing platoon OF ptnk-faced reporters
lmpatiently waiting for him to die, he hears
the cheerful click of chips, and eager voices
remark: "Ante!n Pass the buckl" "Strad-
die the blindI" "Ten better!" "Claw in the
potl" and other plaintive observations which
show that this Is, indeed, vale OF tears.
