Chow dye do, Jim" said Barroff, and
the conversation proceeded socially for
an hour or two, when Barroff went
home.
AS soon asthe door closed behind him
Hutchins charged his wife with infidel-
ity. He broke into a frightful passion.
He could hear no reply or explanation
and ended the scene by locking himself
up in another room. Mrs. Hutchins
could not understand it. Their married
life had been happy until this time, and
had been blest by fine boy. She got
supper, dried her tears, knocked on her
husbands door and told him supper
was ready. He ate his meal without
word, and in sullen silence smoked his
pipe until bedtime. She made one or
two attempts to say something without
avail. He retired to their bedroom while
she spent the night in another room. In
the morning it was the same way. He
ate his breakfast and went to work mute
as post. This life went on for days
and weeks and years, he never saying O
word to her. Sometimes he wrote the
requests on piece of paper. Sometimes
she called in a neighbours child and
talked to him through the child. He
always spoke pleasantly on these occa-
sions, but frowned and became stern if
she ventured to address him directly.
He made her an allowance of $25 o
month for the household expenses and
her own clothes.
Hutchins was a provident, thrifty
man and accumulated money, bought
houses and lots and made loans. He
was fifty-six years old when he died, and
during recent years he had not worked.
His wife, through their boy, asked for
more money than $25 month. Hutch
ms grew violent and threw $40 at her.
She never asked him for money again.
Mrs. Hutchins, the neighbors say, used
to cry great deal, and two or three
times her husband was seen to weep
violently when he thought he was not
observed, but of late years both have
gone on in matter of-fact way. Their
son married and went West three or
four years ago.
Their solitary life went on rs before
until a week ago, when Hutchins was
taken i'll. DR.. Parsons said he had ty-
phoid fever. Mrs. Hutchins cared for
him, gave him medicine and performed
all the offices of the sick chamber. He
never spoke to her and accepted her at
tentions in the silence that he had OBJ
served for twelve years. Mrs. Hutchins
has no idea of what property was left or
what money was loaned. The only
business she did was once in while to
collect rents for her husband and give
receipts signed by him.

When the division is made Miss Helen
Gould, who is charming girl, will be,
in her own right, the wealthiest young
unmarried lady in the world. Jay
Gould does not repose the confidence IN
his second son, Eddie, that he honors
George with, but Eddie is q smart youth,
who can be expected to double the
amount his father gives him in few
years. Wall street is anxiously waiting
for Mr. Gould to make public his in
tention, when the lucky sharers in his
bounty will be warmly congratulated.
Russell Sage was asked to-day what
he thought of the report that Mr.. Gould
was going to divide his property as out
lined above.
'It is all talk" answered Mr.. Sage.
"Mr. Gould is well able to take care of
his property, and does not intend to
make it over to George or anybody
else"
Mr.. Sage did not seem pleased at the
rumor, and two explanations are given
of his anger. One is that Uncle Russell
is not on the best terms with George
Gould, and would be nightly displeased
ut seeing the young man pllcea IN
charge of all the Gould properties, in
which Mr.. Sage is large stoc.lhOlder.
The other is that Mr.. Slge is angry at
finding himself left out OF the distribu-
ton plan, as he had confidently counted
on being remembered with at least a
million or two by his friend Gould.
A Wall street man said: "Jay ex-
hibits correct knowledge of his own
family by retaining 100000 for him
self in case of accident. If George and
the others got all the property in their
own hands they might conclude to send
Jay to BlOomingdale or some other quiet
retreat. But with that amount of money
Father Gould could checkmate any such

A PECULIAR LIFE STORY.
A Husband and Wife Lived Together
Without Speaking.
Ichicago Despatch 10 Philadelphia press.l

[Chicago Despatch 10 Philadelphia Press.l
A strange life story with remarkable
climax ended to-day when James Hut
chins, well-tO-dO resident of this city,
was buried from his house on Sherman
avenue. Mr.. Hutchins' death occurred
Just as the night was closing on Satur-
day. The deathbed scene in his com
Portable home was an extraordinary one.
The dying man had not spoken word
to his wife IN twelve years, and for that
time they had occupied separate rooms.
He was singular and obstinate man.
DR.. Parsons told him he had only few
hours to live. Mrs. Hutchins was cry
ing, and the dying man, with open eyes,
watched her. With n sudden impulse
OF love that had survived the years of
cruel treatment, Mrs. Hutchins threw
her arms around her husbands neck.
kissed him fondly, and begged him to
speak to her once to break, before he
died, the silence of dozen years.
There was a struggle apparent in his
countenance. His lips opened as if to
speak, bit only an inarticulate sound
came from them. His face grew set and
stern again. He slightly repulsed her,
and he was taken with spasm of cough
ing. He asked the doctor for drink of
water. Mrs. Hutchins made no further
attempts at reconciliation, and in half
an hour her husband died.
The story of Mrs Hutchins peculiar
treatment has been a subject for the talk
and wonder of the neighbors. They
were married thirty years ago, in Eng
land. He was a handsome foot soldier
of the British Army and she was friend
of his mother. They came to the town
OF Lake sixteen years ago, and he got
work with the Union Stock Yards Com
pany. He met Harry Barroff, and as
fellow-worllmen they became strong
friends, and Barroff, who was unmar-
ried, used to visit Hutchins many time
at his house. One evening Barroff drop
ped III before Hut"hins had returned
from his work. He sat down, and pres
emily Hutchins came in.
"Hello, Barroff, how are you?" said
he.

JAY GOULD'S MILLIONS.
He Has a Hundred of Them.-How
He may Divide Them.

One of the visitors to the headquar-
tiers of the Democratic Campaign Com
mittee caused sensation among the
politicians. He was DIR. Norvin Green,
President of the Western Union Tele-
graph Company. DR.. Green walked in
to the headquarters at II o'clock, and
was quickly ushered into Mr.. Brice's
room. DR.. Green remained closeted
with Mr.. Brice considerable time. The
purpose of this conference was not di-
vuIged, but it is said that DIR. Green
gave the Chairman assurances OF his
earnest support, moral and financial.
DR.. Green's visit gave rise to many ru-
mors about the probable course of Jay
Gould in the campaign of this year.
Some enthusiastic Democrats expressed
confidence that Gould had come over
to the Democratic party and would send
in handsome check. DR., Green re-
fused to talk with reporters after leaving
Mr.. Brice's room.
A gentleman who is intimately ac-
quainted with Mr.. Gould, and frequent
ly visits the great magnate, said: 81
have no doubt of the truth of the report
that he is to divide his property, and l
expect to see Mr.. Gould himself an
nounce it in day or two. 1t is fact
that cannot be questioned that Mr..
Gould has made up his mind that his
days of usefulness in business are over
and he is glad to throw up the sponge
and leave the field to other men. Since
his i'll health Mr.. Gould frequently re-
fers to the sudden death of William H.
Vanderbilt, and in his conversation he
betrays q fear that his own life may
be cut of quite as suddenly. To his
friends Mr.. Gould has often said that
Mr.. Vanderbilt's plan of dividing his
property before death met with his hear
ty appreciation, and every rich man
should do the same"
els Mr.. Gould in imminent fear of
death?" asked the reporter.
"Oh, no" answered the broker, "but
he is too much of business man to take
any chances. He has the utmost conf
dence in his son George, and knows that
the young man is quite capable of car
ing for the bulk of the Gould fortune,
which he will receive. Hereafter the
Gould family will not figure as daring
Spectators or projectors of new rail
roads and great schemes. Their efforts
will be devoted to holding the immense
fortune which is now theirs. I under
stand that Mr.. Gould will make formal
announcement of his intentions in
short time"
Wall street brokers are figuring up
the extent of Mr.. Gould's wealth. It
was recalled that in July, 1882, when
the air was filed with rumors adverse to
Mr.. Gould's financial standing, he had
called into his Office three well known
gentlemen of this city and had exhibited
bonds, stocks, and other securities stand
ing in his own name, the face value of
which was $52,00O,O00. Mr.. Gould's
fortune has enormously increased since
six years ago, and the general opinion
places his resources at 800, 100000 As
nearly as can be estimated the amount
is distributed as follows:
