as to give the victim the names Of sew
eral solicitors or lawyers in London
who, if they have not the stolen prop
erty in their possession, at least know
where it is and are acquainted with the
character Of the negotiations to be
adopted for its restitution. Nor is it
necessary to apply to the police for the
names of these London dealers in rogue
bonds. At Vienna, at Paris and at Ber-
I'm the names of these agents figure
openly in the official postoffice directory,
with the remark that their bureaus are
organized for the "search and recovery
of stolen scrip" They are invariably
ready in return for q fee proportionate
to the amount Of the robbery to find out
the terms on which their principal, the
London dealer, is prepared to restitute
the stolen property.
These terms are nearly always the
same. They consist Of half the face
value of the stolen bonds. Thus when
M. Burat, the well known Paris agent
de change or stockbroler, was robbed
some years ago of Sl5O,OOO worth Of
bonds, he was compelled to pay S75, 900
to London firm Of lawyers in order to
recover the possession of the scrip.
He complained bitterly to the French
and to the London police. But the lat
ter declared that, according to the terms
of the law and to the rule Of the Stock
exchange, they We're powerless to inter
fere, and that they were forced to re-
gard the offer made to NJ. Burat as a
mere commercial transaction to be nc
cepted or to be refused. Allard, the
banker of the Place de la Bourse at
Paris, was obliged to ransom $50, 900
worth Of scrip which had been stolen
from him by a payment of $4,000 to a
London broker. Rodriguez, the money
changer Of the Rue de la Paix, where so
many American tourists get their money
changed, was obliged to pay $780, 600 for
the recovery of $50, 600 worth of bonds
Of which he had been robbed, and /
could cite any number Of other cases of
the same kind.
The large harvest reaped by these
London dealers in stolen bonds during
the last decade, and the ease with which
they have obtained the sums demanded
for the restitution Of the scrip, and the
legal immunity which they have EN-
/ joyed, have contributed TO enormously
increase the number Of bond robbers all
over the civilized world. Thefts Of this
character have become more frequent
more extensive and more considerable
than formerly, and the condition Of af
fairs has become so serious that Ger
many, Austria, France and Italy are
about to bring diplomatic pressure upoI
Great Britain, with the object of Undue
ing her to modify the laws which have
converted London into the greatest mar
ket in the world for stolen bonds.

Joseph Rodman Drake.
Isneclal Correspondenee.l

HUNTS POINT, n. Y, Sept. I'm O
queer little graveyard on a small island
surrounded by salt marsh, near the
mouth Of the Bronx river, stands the
neat monument and tomb of Joseph
Rod1nan Drake, tho brilliant young
poet whom death cut off untimely at
the early age of twenty-five. Past the
burial place the road leads over to the
point Here the Bronx broadens into a
pay on the sound, and assumes a rela-
tive importance that dimly justifies tho
blunder of George III, who thought his
warships might ascend the stream and
drive Washington from White Plains.
To the east and northeast the marshes
stretch away, broken by a few clumps
Of trees and rocks or diversified BY
aEeclzs of salt hay. Through the dull
Bfass one can trace the sinuous course
Of the little river.
Near the mouth Of the river which he
has celebrated in song young Drake
passed many Of his happiest hours, and
in strolls among woods and meadows
acquired that minute knowledge Of bird,
insect and plant which he used so skill
fully in his "Culprit Fay" This mas
terpiece was produced to prove his as,
sertion, made in opposition to the argu-
ments Of Cooper and Halleck, that
American rivers needed no storied leg
ends or traditions to make them suscep-
tible Of poetic treatment. Not a histor-
ical, legendary or neurological allusion
occurs in the more than 600 lines of the
dainty poem, which bears the high i'm
personality Of pure art.
brakes tomb was until last summer
in neglected shape and almost choked
with a thick underground. 1t was at
that time restored" by q literary club.
The lettering stands out clearly now
and the marble has been secured into
cleanliness. Tho monument is about
eight feet high, ending in a tapering
column. On one of the panels of the
pedestal is the inscription, Sacred t.
the memory of Joseph r. Drake, NJ. d
who died Sept. 81, 1920, aged twenty
five years." followed by the couplet
from Halleck's beautiful memorial poem:
None knew him but TO love him,
None named him but to praise.

monument. BY its side stands an aged
willow, partly dead. For company the
email burial knoll contains the tombs of
the pioneer Thomas Hunt and numer
Gus descendants; also of the Willets and
Bartows. old colonial families.
As the inscription reminds us, Drake
was a physician by profession, though
he scarcely entered upon active prac-
tice. His marriage relieved his strait
ened finances, and a happy year was
spent in European travel. When the
poet returned consumption had set her
doom upon him and he soon wasted
away. One child, daughter, was born
to him. and she collected and published
her fathers poems in 1915. Mrs. Rich
ard Watson Glider is q granddaughter
Of the poet. The strong friendship of
Fitz-Greene Halleck for Drake and
their joint authorship Of the "Croaker
epistlcs deserves more than this passing
mention. ALBERT j. POTTER.

THE POLITICAL ARENA.
The Democratic Educational Campaign
In the West Eairly Hegnn.

The Democratic Educational Campaign
In the West Fairly Begun.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2.--The Democratic ''cam-
paign of education in the west has been
fairly opened Don NJ Dickinson, the chair
man OF the campaign committee of the ma
tional committee, met the representatives
of seven western and northwestern states
and a plan of campaign was laid out The
seven states in which the Democracy ex-
pect to push the fight are Illinois, Michigan,
Wisconsin, thu two Dakotas, Minnesota and
Iowa.
Contrary to the general expectation, Mr..
Dickinson win not be in command Of the
western forces He has more important
work TO perform in New York, and will
leave the western campaign in the hands of
Messrs. Gable, OF Illinois, and Wall, Of Wis
consin. Mr. Dickinson's proxy rs q mem
Der Of the subcommittee wiz probably be
given to either Daniel j. Campau, chairman
of the Michigan Democratic state central
committee and member of the national
committee Of the state, or James s. Ewing,
Adlai E. Stevenson's law partner, who has
arrived in this city to take part in the con
ference.
Mr.. Ewing brought with him the per
sonal wishes Of Mr.. Stevenson that Mr.. Ew.
ing be given place in the management Of
the campaign The chances are that Mr..
/ Ewing will succeed Mr. Dickinson, mas.
much as Mr.. Campau already has his hands
full reporting affairs in Michigan.
The members Of the national committee
/ present or represented by proxy were
Michael Doran, OF Minnesota; w. c. Leis.
tekow, OF North Dakota; James NJ. Woods,
of South Dakota; j. j. Richardson, of Iowa
Daniel j. Campau, of Michigan; Ben Coble,
! Of Illinois, and L. c. Wall, of Wisconsin
The conference was informal. Mr. Dickin-
son is an enthusiast on the subject of west
ern headquarters, and said that as chair
man Of the campaign committee he would
see to it that the western headquarters gel
all the assistance necessary from the east
Mr.. Whitney, Mr. Smalley, Mr. Quincy ant
Senators German, Ransom and Brice, h,
said, were all heartily in favor Of pushing
the fight in the west and would cordially
cooperate with the western committee.

VINcENNEs, Ind, Sept. AIT the Demo
cratic rally here Adlai L. Stevenson was in
PRODUCED by Ex-Governor Gray, who said:
have the honor Of introducing one OF the
best men for whom you have been offered the
privilege Of casting your votes. Tho reason
why say that is he beat me for the nomina-
ton for that Office and do not think you will
charge me with egotism when l say that ii
takes an exceedingly good man to beat me.
lAppleuse.l
General Stevenson went 20 the front Of
the platform and was greeted with cheers.
He remarked;
Pardon me for saying that 1 did not beat my
friend, Governor Gray, but the Democracy OF
the United States decided only TO save him for
the first place in the next presidential contest
[Applause.l
General Stevenson's speech was not OF
great length. 1t reviewed Cleveland's ad-
ministration and denounced the Mckinley
bill and the federal elections bill.

An installment of which APP
pears in this issue.

THE SCARLET LET
TER is written by the firm
hand of a master, guided by
the characteristic and vivid
imagination Of a great author.
The shadow of a former day
takes the reader by the hand
and leads him back to the
early days of a New England
town; amid the scenes of an
English-American colony, the
reader is made familiar with
the quaint conditions of Puri-
tan life. Through the lines
one hears the cry of anguish
and the laugh of Joy and sees
the scenes as they unfold in
sunshine and in shadow.
Those who have read this
fascinating story, years ago,
will be glad to read it once
more, while thousands, both
old and young, who have
never had that pleasure, will
be glad to read it now.
