Although lawyers in all parts Of the
country are complaining that there has
been, within the last year or two, a great
decrease in the amount of law business,
there are a few lawyers in the large
cities, particularly In New York, who are
able to command great sums for their SER
wees. In his testimony before the COM
mittee that is investigating the charges
relative to the improper use OF money TO
secure the Broadway Surface railway
franchise in New York, Jacob Sharp, who
was the chief promoter OF that enterprise.
said that for legal advice and assistance
in securing the franchise he paid to law
yers the amount OF S19s, s66 SO. The money
was distributed as follows: Scribner, Rob-
Inson & Bright SIS, $3.50 SO, ex-Judge Rus
sell $4,000, Alexander & Green $4,000,
Col. George Bliss $4,000, and James M
Lyddy s12,5 800.
Of course, Mr.. Sharp was working for
a great prize, but there is no testimony to
show that any one OF these lawyers was
partner in it. All were employed to
render certain services, and, it seems.
they did their work satisfactorily. OF
course where so much is at stake, as there
was in this case, it is absolutely neces-
sary that there shall be no errors in any
step that is taken. A very slight mistake
may be fatal. When. therefore, millions
of dollars are depending upon the advice
that a lawyer gives it is to be expected
that he will insist upon being well paid.
He is not paid tor the work that he does
I IN for ha ID 81 lou 1nk h.
has, and sometimes for his ability to find
ways for evading the law.
The lawyers who advised Jacob Sharp
in the Broadway Surface railway bust
ness, however, appear TO have valued
their services extraordinarily high. II
they could get few fees each year like
those which he paid them they would be
able to retire from business in very short
time and live luxurlously upon their ac-
| cumulations.
The great majority Of lawyers, however,
like the great majority Of the members OF
other professions, are able, by the hardest
kind OF work, to earn only a comfortable
living. Indeed, the majority of profess
siOnal and business men do not earn
more than a comfortable living. There
are only few who succeed in winning
prizes.
Among the thousands Of lawyers in
New York there are few who can com.
mand their own price for their services,
and while perhaps they are no better able
than hundreds OF others to give correct
interpretations of the law or to manage
cases in court, it is believed that they
can.

thief has been getting in his work about the
city. His scheme was to go into stores and
saloons which are open late in the evening,
secrete himself and after the occupants had
locked up, gather up what he wanted and
walk out. Graus', Lorimers and Don
nelly's saloons were worked. as was also
Wampler Il Mussetter's drug store. In the
last mentioned place the thief traded his
coat and hat for one left by clerk, and
bv wearing these he was captured. He
gives his name as Frank Wharton, and
saws he has been living in Minneapolis
for some time. He was identified by sew
eral of the people he had done up and will
be arraigned IN the police court to-day. A
number of pawn checks were found on
him, but no money. From his work here
in the last two weeks he cleared about $3.50
in cash.

cRises
A very eloquent lecture was given in the
parlors of L'UniOn Franchise under the ST.
Louis church last night by Henri BoIand,
of Paris member of the French legation
in Quebec. He has made thorough study
of the French Canadian people in America
preparatory to writing history, and his
subject last night was the progress of the
Canadian French, both in Canada and the
United States, since the treaty of 1853.
At that time there were 63, 600 French in
America, and it was the general belief
that they would soon be absorbed, but
Mons Boland figures up 1,500, 600
of French descent in Canada.
and 800, 900 in the United States, all of
whom preserve their national character
