PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 11.-Superin-
tendent of State Banking Charles H.
Krumbhaar refused to talk yesterday
about the affairs of the Mutual Bank
ing, Surety and Trust Company which
enterprise has close affiliation with the
Iron Hall.
The officials and stockholders OF the
Mutual Banking Company say there is
no reason why the banking superin-
tendant should close them up and what
is more, is not likely to find any SUD
stantial reason to do So Mr., krumo-
haar is wrestling with the puzzle oi
how to establish the proof which the
law holds must qualify him in any steps

been greatly criticised he succeeded ip gratifying his greatest mbition-amassine the most colossal fortune ever accumu. lated by one man.
 Of Jay Goulds early life very little was known until within comparatively recent time, for of all men living he was one of the closest mouthed.
 He was born on May 27, 1SS6, near the little town of Roxbury, in Delaware coun ty, this state.
 His father, John B. Gould, was the owner of a small farm. He married three times, and his first wife, Jays mother. died in ls4l. The boy was christened Jason. and he was known by his full name until he was nearly twenty years old, when he changed it to Jay.
 In his earliest days little Jason used te tend his fathers cows. He did not like farming, however, and when he was ten years old he began to walk fifteen miles tc the nearest school and started out Sunday nights, returning on Saturday. There he soon learned to read, write and figure. A, fourteen he became a clerk in a country grocery, but he studied at night and soon determined to become a surveyor. During this period his genius for driving sharr bargains began to develop itself. In one case he overreached his employer in small real estate deal, which is said to have cost him his position.
 He then engaged as chain bearer to a su. veyor, who was to pay him twenty dollars month, but did not, and Gould was com pelled to make moon mark" or sun dial for farmer in order to get food. Gould completed the map of Ulster county his absconding employer was at work on and made $500 on the'deal.
 He Goes to New York.
 Gould came to New York in 1853 with an ingenious mouse trap which he had invent ed and which he intended to exhibit and perhaps dispose of. He got into a horse car, placing his package on the seat. A thief who imagined it might contain val uables tried to run away with it, but Jay caught him.
 The invention was not a success and Jay went back into the country and made his living at surveying for several years. Dur ing this time be made the acquaintance of Zadoc Pratt, of Prattsville, who owned the largest tannery in the state. Gould be- came Pratt's partner and made considerar ole money and, 1t is alleged, ruined a leather merchant named Leupp, who ad> vanced him money Leupp became hope lessly involved in bankruptcy and shot himself in his magnificent house on Madi- son avenue.
 Gould engaged in bis first railway enter prise in 1857, when he bought the bonds of the Rutland and Washington railroad at ten cents on the dollar. He sold out afterward at fair profit.

they became strong and advanced in some cases. Western Union was especially strong.
 The amount of Jay Gould's wealth has often been estimated. Figures have been given that run from S100, ,0o0,000 to 800, 900. 900 and even higher.
 It is safe to declare that MT. Gould has left fortune of s100, 100000. The popular estimate of his property is about s15o, ,ooO, ,o0O

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-The funeral of tn. late Jay Gould, who died here Friday, was held from the family residence on Fifth avenue. The funeral was private, and the general public was barred out because the family feared that the crowd could not be handled with comfort. The interment ocs cured at the Gould mausoleum, Woodlawn cemetery. Consumption killed Mir. Gould
 MT and Mrs. George Gould, Misses Helen and Annie Gould and Edwin and Howard Gould were at his bedside when he died. Dr. Mum and Dr. Janeway were in at tendance.
 Several times before the end came Mrs. George Gould (nee Edith Kingdom, the ac tress) was seen at the window, pale and wan from her nights watching pr. Mum told the reporters that MT. Gould had died without a struggle and had passed away Hike bird"
 MT. Gould had been suffering from dis ease of the lungs for number of years, though the fact had never been known even to his most intimate friends. He had several hemorrhages from the lungs re- gently, the first one on Thanksgiving day, another two days after and an alarming one on Wednesday. ....-
 It was then that every expedient known to medicine was resorted to. Death was merely question of time after the first hemorrhage.
 No Flurry in Wall Street.

treachery He came across him one day In Exchange place, and after pummeling him and shaking him up roughly he dropped him over an iron railing into an areaway. Gould took his punishment philosophically. but it is said that for long time after that he never went around in Wall street with out having some one near at hand who could render him assistance in case of an attack.
 In whatever official positions Mir. Gould held, such as president of the Missouri Pacific and Manhattan railway companies, he will probably be succeeded, for tims at least, by George Gould.

W ithin a very short time he was in the front rank. His chief charac- teristie was his cautiausneSs and reserve. He made friends with very few and was the enemy of most of his associates in speculation. The first great scheme in which Gould became interested after he entered Wall street was the gobbling of the Erie railroad.

His Pure Private Life.
 In 1882 Gould took some friends into his private office and showed them his strong box in his safe. It contained s23, 900 worth of securities, according to the stories which were circulated at that time.
 In private life Gould's record has been that of a most exemplary citizen. He loved his family and spent all of his time outside of his business hours in their company. His style of living has not been pretentious, although his mansion on Fifth avenue is furnished richly and in manner that com pares favorably with those of the wealthiest of the town, and his country seat at Irving. ton-on-the-Hudson is provided with every thing that wealth could puichase.
 One of the notable incidents in Gould's Wall street career was his public chastise- ment by Major Selover, big kentuckian, in 1877.
