FROM THE CITY'S WHIRL.
DRIFT CAUGHT HERE AND THERE BY
"EvENING WORLD" REPORTERS.
The Habit of Self-C ommuninR Must he Very
Preynlcnt Ia New York.

. The Habit of sif-CommuninR Must Re Very
Prevalent Ia New York.
To nm observant person it is n matter of
surprise to find that SO many men in the city
of New York are seen talking to themselves
in public On the roads and even on
the streets a man will be seen with his brow
knit in deep thought and his lips moving.
Usually he does not make M articulate sound.
but he is talking TO himself or to some imag-
mary person just the same, Occasionally u
man will be SO carried away that he will
make a gesture with the same unconscious
ness.
This is a good evidence of the busy brain
that tho average New Yorker carries around
with him during business hours. He is
clearly busying himself with some scheme or
other. Probably not one man IN n thousand
talks to himself when he is thinking of some
pleasure ahead.
The other day an EVENING WORLD reporter
saw n maj crossing City Hall Park who was
not only talking out loud to himself in the
most earnest way, but who was also gesticu-
lating with one hand quite vehemently. Any
one passing him could hear what he was say
ing. 1t did not sound very coherent, but he
was clearly : laying down the law " 10 some
body and was taking the matter very seri-
ously.
lie was n crank, undoubtedly, or n little
loose III his upper story, because lie could
hardly have been so Geclamatory through
mere Observation-Disclosures. But there are
dozens of bushes men who talk inaudibly
to themselves in public.

One of the petty annoyances to which peo.
pie living in Brooklyn and coming to New
York are subjected is met at this end of the
big bridge.
Every morning as the passenger steps out
on Park row he is chased and bobbed against
by anywhere from a half dozen to a dozen
boys whose ages range from six to fifteen
years. They were after his morning WORLD.
They are very persistent, too, and if the pas.
senger is in any way disposed to notice
them, they will follow him down Park Row
beyond the ground where the new WORLD
building is to be erected.
Some of the more daring of the a do
not take the trouble to ask for a mans paper,
but snatch it out of his hand and then run.
The Bridge policeman, who tands Just above
the steps, sees these goings-on. but doesn't
do anything to protect people from the ur-

1t is said that some of the boys get rs many

He Robbed the Widows
And Remorse 1mpelled Him to
 Commit Suicide.
A SENSATION IN CONNECTICUT.
Joseph Breed, Cashier of the National Bank, the Haudsomest Man in Hart and Best Families, Cuts His Throat.

HARTFORD Aug. 30.-The suicide of Joseph Breed, assistant cashier of Hartford National bank is traceable directly to loss of trust funds in speculation. The dedication of his trusts amounts to about $2O, 900 from the estates of two widows The suicide was cool and de- Gberate. Breed left his home early and went to store where his brother George is em- ployed as bookkeaper. Passing few words with him, he walked towards the bank, but visited hardware store next door and pur- chased a razor. Going into the bank he spoke pleasantly to the clerks who had ar rived before banking hours, and stepped into the hallway leading to closet.
 4 moment later stifed scream was heard and clerk, running into the hallway, saw Breed leaning against the wall, with the blood squirting from ga>h in his throat he.n .ng frightened, the c.er& ran 70 e 5,.,tt and notified a policeman, wh" hnrric to the hallway. He asked: "Cfreat heaN e;.s! 13r. Breed, what have you been doing!" and the latter replied feebly, II don't know" Breed then became unconscious. Dr. Johnson ar rived soon after, but Breed died in twenty minutes The razor had been held ill the left hand, and thrust into the right side of throat, severing both branches of the carotid artery and causing a rapid loss of blood
 Breed was acting attorney of Mrs. Jacob
 
 and is expected home this week. This trust is believed to be intact. He was financial agent of Mrs. c. A. Taft, widow of Dr. Taft, who died in 1881, leaving an estate of $780, 0OO. Breed recently notified Mrs. Taft who is summering in New Hampshire, that his accounts were short, whereupon she wrote him sharp letter, saying she would return. There is deficit of nearly $l0,000 in this account. For Mrs. Daniel Goodwin he also acted as attorney, and this estate has de- felt of S10,00O. He trustee of public library beQuest and administrator on the es- tate of William Webster, but both these ac- counts are found to be correct.
 The bank directors positively assert that his accounts with the institution are straight and there is no deficit. Outside of his Wall street speculations he had dealings in certain real estate, which were profitable for time, but recently he had been losing money. For some days past the clerks and bank officials have noticed that Breed was depressed ill spirits and occupied much time in examining small account books, presumably relating to his trust accounts Breed was a leading member of St. Johns Episcopal church, and held high position i'll social circles. Mrs. Breed was formerly Miss Eleanor Brayton, of Chicago.
