Stevenson. Vice President when asked TO state
his opinion IS to the causes leading mp to pezse-
cratic defeat yesterday. said:
MY opinion can be briefly stated The resass
Is due in part to the financial depression which
came upon the country soon after the election Of
Cleveland. While the Democrats are in no uay
responsible for this. they were made seapeeoasa
II is also due in part to the delay Of conEress In
passing the tariff bill. Had the bill become .

taat the business conditions Of the country
would have so adjusted themselves that the
political result would have been different"

the estimates of the action of these ladies

"The art schools in the East and in
Europe all have lectures on artistic anat-
omy, illustrated by living models" said
one of the Independents when ques-
toned regarding the Sandow matinee.
I'm San Francisco alone they are behind
the times in this respect. A great deal
has been said about the large audience
that was present and Mr.. Walters lee

tons were issued only to members of the
club and old students and those interested
in art. The pupils from the institute
were asked and the painters from the
league and-well. perhaps, few mothers
and sisters; but they all looked at the
lecture seriously and did not take it in a
frivolous spirit.
ut is so hard to make the general pub

painter. ut seems to me that when you
think of art and the beautiful. that ex-
cludes every other thought. Any one.
man or woman, looking at a beautiful or
an interesting model, should let the feel

1.-The reason art is at such a low stand

enough advantages. said Miss Chris tian,
q member of the Art League. who has
recently returned from Europe. "In. the
Old World they make study of the nude

Women of all nationalities take advantage
Of the Governments interest in artistic

The fact is that in San Francisco there

what studying art means. and they are the
ones who condemn the use Of a model on
prudish grounds"

Attorney John M. Lucas
Disappears.
he Got Cash on False Checks Bor-

The many creditors of Attorney John NJ.
Lucas are bewailing over his sudden dis
appearance for parts unknown, and their
feelings are douoly outraged by his bad
treatment of the confidence they placed In
him. Likely enough he will be brought
back as some of his dupes declare he shall
not escape their vengeance.
Lucas studied in the Law College from
1873 to 1881. and after graduating went to
San Jose. Later on he moved to San
Diego where prosperity came to him dur
ing the boom period. lie moved thence to
Portland, Or, where he had some diff

at 405 Montgomery street. in this city, was

His former frlends:say they believed he
was building IN a good practice. Lucas
got quite a number of small cases, anu fell
in for considerable business through J. p.
Mccormick. the contractor, who intro
duced him to W. II. Naughton, the father
in-law of Mcbride, the livery stableman
on Suffer street, who failed recently. Sew
eral cases at law grew out of McBride's
failure. and these Lucas got through
Naughton. Some of them are pending in
court. On these Lucas borrowed money
in advance from Naughton with the under

The money was given for Lucas check
on the DonOhoe-Kelly bank. A similar
transaction occurred the same evening,
when Dunn Bros. gave Lucas $50 On a
check.
Both the checks were presented last
Monday morning, but Lucas bad neither
money nor an account in the bank. In the
meantime he sent the keys OF his Office to
his landlord and made himself scarce
about town. He was last seen in his office
on tina Thursday preceding, but he left
either on Sunday or Monday, leaving two
mon tbs rent due a0d nothing as collateral
There may be many other checks of his
scattered around and Lucas may have
borrowed money In various places where
he frequented. a warrant was sworn out
for his arrest on Tuesday charging him
with obtaining money by false pretenses.
The cases left In chaotic condition by
Lucas have been taken by Attorney Robert
Ashe and one Of them was Cd trial yester-
day.
Lucas is married, but has not lived with
his wife for some time past. He is said 10
have gone to Arizona, where an effort will
be made to find him.
