4 Good story.
Adjourned.

Last weeks -A,'yonoM bias {
very cleverly written article
from the pen of Robert Duncan
Milne. He represents one DR.
Thorndyke as getting w. FL
Vanderbilt so under the in
| fiuence of mesmerism as to give
the doctor full power to draw
and use the seventy million dol
lars worth of Z. S. bonds he has
deposited in the New York Safe
Deposit Company's vaults. Mr..
Vanderbilt is represented as
having sailed for Europe with a
party Of friends; is overhauled
by the doctor when the steamer
is two days out, and is handed
a forged note from an intimate
friend in New York stating that
Immediately upon his departure
the Wall street sharps had cut
his securities right and left, and
urging his immediate return.
Mr.. Vanderbilt steps into Thorn
dykes yacht, who mesmeriZes
him until he is completely
under his control, gets him to
sign all the papers he wishes,
takes the magnate to Halifax
and has him sign them all be-
fore cur Minister there, puts
him on board the next steamer
for Europe, returns to New
York, gets possession of the
bonds, has them reissued in his
own name, goes to Canada, and
defies the government to eX-
tradite him. Vanderbilt, when
he finds that he has thus been
cleverly cheated out Of the vast
amount, Is undecided whether
to sue the Safe Deposit Company
for surrendering his property to
any one but himself, or to go for
the United States Treasury for
transferring the bonds, even
Though each of these parties
hold a written order signed by
him and authorizing it. The
story is quite lengthy, but well
written. After one gets through
reading it, the natural question
is, "Just suppose lt~was so, what |
could Vanderbilt do"?'
