THE READING WRECK
MEN PROMINENTLY IDENTIFIED WITH
THE RECENT READJusTMENT.

The Story of A. A. McLeod's Career Reads
Like Romance I'm Raiiroading some
thing About the Readings Receivers.
Justice Paxson's Record.
The story Of the Reading railroad is
one which might well furnish the basis
for sensational play or very realistic
novel. 1t was but few weeks ago the
greatest of all railroad combinations
and had at its head Archibald Angus
Mcleod, the most phenomenally sue
cessful OF railway operators. AlPat once
there was q change more startling than
any Kaleidoscope can produce, and now
the combined railways are in the hands
OF receivers, and there has been fall
in the stock and convulsion in Wall
street which in less healthful state of
the market might have produced panic.
Ex-senator Thomas C. Platt Of New
York, of whom the public has heard and
read since he went out with Conkling"
in 1881, filed the suit in the United States
court in Philadelphia, his right to do so
being as holder of $55, 900 of the COM
pany's preference bonds on which inter-
est had been refused. No denial of the
facts being made, Judge Dallas made the
order as of course, and on suggestion Of
the parties appointed as receivers Chief
Justice Edward M. Paxson of Pennsyl-
vania, President A. A. Mcleod and E.
p. Wilbur. George L. Crawford was
named special master, before whom the
receivers must lay completed account
each month.
Archibald Angus Mcleod, though but
45 years old, has had career which is
romance in railroading. Born in the
northwest and educated in the practical
school of life, his first appearance as a
railroader was as a rodman for the en- |

gineers locating the line of the North
Pacific. He soon showed unusual ca
pacity,r rose rapidly through all the
grades and was made general manager
of the Elmira, Cortland and Northern
road in New York. In 1886 he secured
the same position in the Reading system.
Soon after he was made vice president,
and on June o. 1890, on the retirement
Of President Corbin, became president.
In little while the country was star
tied by the announcement that the COM
pany had combined all the anthracite
coal interests and all the roads by which
the coal reached the cities; that this gi-
gantic corporation, combine" or trust"
therefore controlled some 5000 COO, 900 in
capital and 10000 employees, and that
the price Of coal was to go up according
ly. The legal battle which followed is
fresh in the public memory. The New
England and other railway combipes
thwarted the Reading combine, apds
it transpired that =the latter's Sgoperty
was in a wretched condition. 1t fell
with great ruin, and the highest esti-
mate now places its value away below
5000, o,000.0 900. Monarchies of note have
fallen and caused less suffering.
Chief Justice Edward M. Paxson had
salary of $500 year, and his term
would have continued till 1896. His res
is,nat4on to accept the receivership shows,
therefore, how important this matter is
TO his state and city. He was born Sept.
s, 1924, in Bucks county, Pa, was adj
united to the bar there in 1850 and To-
Gated in Philadelphia soon after. In 1874
he was elected to the supreme bench of
the state for the full term of 81 years,
md in 1889 became chief justice by SEN
GRITTY for the 7-year term.

Boiling Down q Speech.

An old newspaper man in Washington
tells this story of Mr.. Blaine:
my first experience with Mr.. Blaine
was when, as correspondent for west
ern paper, endeavored to get him TO
withdraw from the official reporters OF
the house speech which he had made,
in order that might make an abstract
of it.
How much of this do yor want TO
usey Mr.. Blaine asked.

about half of it.

when he was but years old. his wild
owed mother fleeing from the poverty
and misery which followed the famine
and famine clearances." Yet despite
his A years in America he is still Irish
in his sympathies, though he has always
earnestly opposed the mixing up of Irish
matters with American politics.
His mother secured modest home in
Chelsea, Boston's suburb, and the son
gained eight years of American training
and common school education before
going at hard work at the age of -. In
boyhood he went to Ohio, where he
worked on farm and in the coal mines,
ran a stationary engine and did all sorts
of common labor, but always struggling
to improve. He returned to Boston,
learned the trade of an upholsterer, was
foreman Of shop at the age Of 81 and
soon laid up money enough to take a
course in law, graduating from the Har-
ward law school. His success was great
from the start and his manner of speak
ing singularly effective.
In 1871 he retired from practice and
soon became noted in politics. After
holding some minor offices he was elect
ed to congress in 1S824-6. He was for
six years at the head Of the state Demo
cratic committee. has been delegate at
several national conventions and is
doubtless the most influential Irishman
in American politics. The return of such
a man as consul general to the United
Kingdom, which he left as poor orphan,
would add another to the many brilliant
proofs that i'm such a land as this no
youth need despair.
