Leonard w. Jerome,

Leonard w. Jerome, whose death at Brighton,
England, was announced in Wednesday STAR,
was for many years one of the leading patrons
of the turf in this country and at one time in
his varied career was the dictator of Wall street
and the rival of Commodore Vanderbilt, Daniel
Drew and Jay Gould in the successful manipu-
lation OF the stock market The foundation of
his success was laid in the panic of 1857. One
lucky stroke gave him a fortune and his wealth
mt one time was estimated at $40, 000, 600 Re-
peated reVerses. however, deprived him of the
greater part OF this fortune.
In politics Mr.. Jerome was ALWAYS an nd
vocate Of freedom to the slave. From first
to last his heart was given to the Union cause
Every subscription list had his name in the
front.
During tho war he was one of the principal
owners Of the New York Times then edited by
Henry ]. Raymond, between whom and MT.
Jerome a strong personal friendship existed.
The training of thoroughbred stock was never
undertaken on a large scale in the northern
states until the establishment Of Jerome Park.
and Mr.. Jerome probably did more than any
one man to make the turf popular in this
country.
Mr.. Jerome took an active part in getting
mp the ocean race of 1866, the greatest Yacht
race on record. He subscribed the largest
share Of the stakes. His winnings nettsd over
He was nearly six feet in stature. broad and
well proportional, and this, with his dark
complexion, iron-gray hair and heavy mus
tache, made him striking and conspic uous
figure.
