The oriein of the rrouble.

An Associated Press dispatch from At
lanta, published In the MORNING NEws
yesterday. contained the following: THE
crisis in Csntrals affairs was not unex-
pected. Ever since the Calhouns went out
OF active control OF the properties some
months ago Georgia holders of the stock
have felt uneasy, and many have feared
that the predictions made by Pat Calhoun
to his memorable letter published at the
time would come true"
1t may be true that Georgin holders Of
Central's stock have been uneasy ever since
Mr.. Pat Calhoun published the letter
70 which the writer of the
Associated Press dispatch calls atten-
ton, but it is hardly probable
that their uneasiness was due 60 the fact
that the voice OF the Calhouns had ceased
to be potent In Centrsl's affairs. The letter
containing the predictions was written i'm
mediately after the Calhouns ceased to be
influential in the management Of the Gen.
trail, and by many it was thought that It
was called out by that fact. They won
dered why no word Of warning had been
uttered before If their interests were In
such imminent danger.
Doubtless the Messrs Calhoun intended 10
do what they believed to be right by the
minority stockholders and to promote the
interests Of Georgia, but is it not largely
due TO Mr.. Pat Calhoun that the minority
stockholders find themselves in the present
predicamenti The understanding Is that
be was chiefly Instrumental in forming the
syndicate that purchased the majority OF
the Central's stock and that he assisted in
putting the control of the road in the Rich
mond Terminal Company. Before the road
went into the hands of Wall street men It
was owned and controlled by Georgians and
there was no uneasiness felt by the owners
of the stock.
The general impression Is that he also
favored leasing the Central to the Georgia
Pacific, dependency Of the Richmond and
Danville, and the understanding is that
the floating debt Of the Central had been
increased so greatly, although paying all the
time dividend Of per cent, that the lease
was necessity. II the foregoing is correct,
1t does not appear that the minority stock
holders became uneasy only when the Messrs.
Calhoun ceased to have a voice in the man
agement Of the Centrals properties. They
were uneasy q good while before that time.

The Cost of Excessive Wealth.

The penalties of excessive riches are
never given a thought when one wishes for
wealth. IF were rich would do this, or
/ would do that" is heard every day; but
nobody ever says. "As I am poor nobody
will dynamite me. kidnap me, lay legal
traps for me, manipulate the market
against me, rob me of rest by the thousand
schemes that worry the rich,n etc. The
glamor of riches obscures all the unpleasant
things. as the veil of the prophet of Khor-
assam hid his hideous face, but the unpleas-
ant features are behind 1t. nevertheless
Mr.. Gould. MIR. Sage, the Messrs. Wander
bilt, MIR. Rockefeller, Mr.. Carnegie and
other very rich men are daily the objects of
envy on the part of thoughtless people.
when, really, sympathy is the emotion that
should move them. Mr.. Rockefeller finds
it necessary to employ force of detectives
to protect his person and his effects; Mr..
Sage has been "blown up" literally; Mr..
Gould is constantly tormented by all man
ner of oranks; Mr.. Vanderbilt enjoys less
peace of mind, probably. than the humbest
brakeman on one of his many railroads.
and each and every millionaire in the lot
has as many fgurative thorns in his flesh as
there are quilts on the proverbial porcupine.
Wealth does not produce happiness
nothing earthly does, in fact. 1t is proba-
BILE that the nearest approach to content
ment is felt by the man who has acquired
competence honestly and lives in that
wholesome mean between poverty aud alb
normal riches.

policeman leaned against lamp post and rep

abandoned mien aud generally disreputable
exterior. He saw the policeman and paused.
The bluecoat clutched his club. Say" re-

Misleading Estimates.

Very little reliancs is to be placed upon
| the estimates of Senator HIPS strength pub
lished in the newspapers that are assisting
him in his canvass. They are put out for
purpose, and may lead many TO believe
that the demand for his nomination is much
greater than 1t really ia There are always
those who want to be on the winning side,
and thsy are generally found among the
supporters Of the candidate for whom the
| largest claims are made.
A few days ago IL was stated quite posi-
lively that the Pennsylvania delegation
would support Senator Hill after casting
complimentary vote for Gov. Pattison.
There was absolutely no foundation for this
statement. Already quite a large number
Of counties Of that state have elected dele
lect delegation to the national convention.
and all Of them have given instructions for
Mr.. Cleveland. The Times. of Philadelphia,
which is generally well informed relative to
the democratic sentiment Of Pennsylvania,
says: THE democrats Of Pennsylvania are
taking good care that Hill shall get no dele
gates TO the national convention from this
state"
Recently a story was sent out from Wash
ington that Mr.. Singerly, the editor and
proprietor Of the Philadelphia Record, had
come out strongly for Senator Hill, and
that he was in that city comforting with the
senator relative to the political situation in
Pennsylvania. There was no truth In the
story. As soon as Mr.. Singerly saw it in
print he denied IT. He said he was in
Washington on private business, and called
on Senator Hill, but he did not talk politics
with him. Being asked If he favored Sem
ator Hill for the nomination, he said, very
emphatically, that be did not. He declared
he could not be quoted too strongly for Mr.
Cleveland.
These are only samples of the misleading
statements that are being made with the
hope Of helping Senator Hill in bis canvass.
In the end. however. they will do him harm
rather than good They are denied almost
as soon as they are made, and the result is
that the people are beginning to question
almost every thing that is said in Senator
Hilps behalf. He is not, of course, respon-
sible for the reckless statements that are
made by those who think they are helping
him, and he would prevent their publica>
tion, probably, IL he could.
1t does not look as II Senator Hill would
get much help in the west. The drift Of
democratic sentiment there is beginning to
show itself. Senator Palmer, Gov. Gray
and GOV. Boies are all candidates, and will
have the support of the delegations from
their respective states. IL it becomes ap>
parent that Mr.. Cleveland cannot get the
nomination the west will be pretty solid
for a western man.
In the south Senator Hill has q good
many friends, and by organization and
work he may get two or three southern
delegations. The indications now however,
are that Mr.. Cleveland will have the sup
port of nearly ali the southern states.
Those who permit themselves to be influ-
enced by estimates, most OF which are pub
lshed for the purpose Of creating senti-
ment in favor Of a particular candidate,
may not. after all. get on the winning side.

Features of the Reoeivarshin.

The appointment Of a receiver for the
Central has brought worry and anxiety to
many who are unable TO bear mental trouble
Of any kind, They are chiefly men and
women who have all Of their money in
vested in Central securities, and who are
past the time Of life when they can reasoua-
bly, hope to earn a comfortable living. They
are fearful that they will lose their property
and become dependent upon their friends
Some of them are utterly Frustrated, and
may not live to see the outcome Of the legal
fight that has been begun.
Probably the securities of no other rail-
road corporation in the country is held by
SO many estates. The road having had such
long and prosperous career its stock was
regarded as a safe one in which to invest
trust funds. There are thousands of shares,
doubtless, that are owned by minors and
widows. 1t can be readily seen, therefore,
that IL the stock should become valueless
there would be widespread distress.
A prominent New York railroad man
said recently that Wall street had neither
heart nor conscience. The men there who
engineer railroad deals and carry out
money-making schemes are Indifferent

The Central's trouble viii bring about a
good many business complications through
out the state. In this city these complica-
tons have already arisen. and legal advice

New York's Typhus Cases.

The number of cases Of typhus fever In
New York is steadily increasing, and IL
looks as il that city would have serious
trouble with the disease. Seven new cases
were reported Thursday, two of which
caused the health authorities great deal Of
anxiety, because they were found In Belle
vue and the Mount Sinai hospitals. These
cases were not taken to the hospitals. They
originated there. They were attendants,
and contracted the disease from typhus
patients brought there
Quite number Of the patients who have
been taken to North Brothers Island within
the last few days contracted the disease
from being in infected rooms or by coming
In contact with articles that had been In in-
footed atmosphere. A reporter of the Com
nlerciGL Advertiser was attacked by the
disease shortly after he went through a
room In which there had been typhus
patients. and butcher who had slept in a
room in which there had been a case of the
disease quickly became a victim Of it.
1t is difficult to avoid the contagion In
those localities in which there have been
cases Of the disease, and that 10 why the
health authorities are so active and SO
anxious They are doing all they can to
prevent an epidemic and their success is by
no means certain.
People from all parts Of the country are
entering and leaving New York all the
time, and. although the disease is SO con-
fined that there is not much danger of their
coming into control with it, never
theless 1t would be advisable
for the health authorities of cities in con-
slant communication with New York to be
on their guard. One case of typhus in cily
not so well prepared to handle the disease as
New York is might be sufficient to start an
epidemic there that would cost many lives
and large amount Of money. The health
authorities Of all cities that are In close
communication with New York should be
on their guard. A little wise precaution
on their part may save their respective
cities an infinite amount of trouble.
