FRANK CARPENTER WRITES OF IN
Gle SANS METROPOLIS.
A CHAT WITH MAYOR STRONG.
HOW NEW YORK GROWS AND HOW
BIG 1T Is ALREADY.
Mayor Strong Says II VIII BecOme the
Greatest City in the World
Chances for Young Men in
the Greater New
York.

New York. May 81 have spent this
morning in the capitol building of the sec
Cnd city Of the world. 1 refer to the city
hall. which is to be the center Of the gov
eminent of the Greater New York. The
Greater New York contains twice as many
people as either New Jersey or Iowa. 1t
has nine times as many souls as Rhode ISL
and or South Dakota. All the people in Ne
vaia would rattle around in some OF Its
smaller wards like dry peas in a pod, and
its Inhabitants are more, with a rev eN-
Ceptions, than those of the greatest OF our
states. New York city is surpassed by only
only place in the world as to its population,
and il is an easy second among the world s
cities in business and wealth. Inere Is no
town but ~gray-haired London which viii
compare with it. and with lusty strides II Is
fast tramping on LOudOn'S heels. During
my visit to the English metropolis not long
ago l heard a great fuss made about a sale
of business property there at a price equal
to S10.G 400. 600 an acre. \ lot was sold within
a stones throw OF the city hall Only a year
or so ago for a price amounting TO Sj.IOt-Ot0
an acre. This lot was on the corner of Mas
Sau and Liberty streets. II contained con-
siderably less than a quarter OF an acre OF
ground and il brought S~.2J0.O0o. There is
scarcely any property on the island OF Man
haitian which can be bought Cheaply to-
day. There are lots along lower Broadway
which are worth d price equal to a carpet
Of silver dollars over their entire surface,
and there are some. ] venture, which you
could not buy by Offering to stand silver
making a two-inch plating over the entire
lot. The tendency Of prices here is ever up
ward. Onc-twelfth Of the total assessed
value Of tine United States exists in New
York. the real estate assessments alone
amounting to more than $1,000. 100000. Still.
when the Dutch bought the island of Man
haitian from the Indians they paid for it
only S4 worth of glass beads and buttons.

ACCOUNTANTS WILL HAVE THEIR

Yesterdays TESTIMONY IN THE
STOCK YARDS INVESTIGATION.
1t Was the Last Along the Line of
Values That VIII BE Taken Ex-
cept in - Major
Drought Re~caIIed-Oth-
err Witnesses.

After spending the whole week getting
the figures and estimates of experts as to
the value of the stock yards buildings and
other improvements, the hearing Of that
case was adjourned shortly after 4 O'Clock
yesterday by Special Master Clark until
Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Attorney
General Boyle said he had six other wit
nesses to put on the stand, and that he had
finished the examination so far as it relat-
ed to the value of the plant. One of tile
witnesses this week will be w. J. 'Stagg,
the expert accountant, who has made an
abstract of the company's books, and who
will testify to the deductions he has made
from them. While they are taken from
the same records as have been testified to
by Colonel Morse. there may be some sharp
differences in the opinions of the two men
as to what are proper charges. The indi-
cations now are that the greater portion
of the week. possibly all of it. will be oc-
cupied with the completion of the testi-
mony. The complainant will then have an
inning for rebuttal. but will probably not
want to proceed with that at once. but will
ask for a weeks delay to get the case
properly arranged so as to put the rebuttai
where il is calculated to do the most good.

to prove that the condition of the yards in

Another Incendiary Fire.

Several tons of hay in a car on the east
switch of the Missouri Pacific road near
the electric light plant was burned last
night. The loss is about SO and the fire
was undoubtedly of incendiary origin. Sew
eral fires have occurred recently which
were evidently the work of firebugs. A pc
culiar Coincidence is that all the property
destroyed was owned by feed dealers.
Hindes & COombs, who owned the hay de-
stroyed last night, have suffered similar

He replies that he has no habits to speak
Of. that he lives simply, works hard, ana
thrives upon il. In reply TO my. questions
he answers that he does not drink much,
although his friends tell me that he is not
ayerse to a finger of good old whisky now
and then. He tells me that one or the
secrets of his vitality lies in the TACT that
he never worries, and his assistants tel
me that he sheds trouble as a DUCK Ddch

which he turns to the next caller Is as
clear as a May morning.
Mayor strong Like Lincoln.
I'M told that Mayor Strong is very fond
of lunOr. lie mas n nOIltlS way VIM
reminds you of President Lincoln. He can
see "A joke as quickly as could Lincoln
and he eujOvs a funny story amid the
most solemn circumstances. People VINO
come before him are surprised TO hear
him burst into a laugh and tel n Iuhhy
story in the midst of a most serious con-
suIt3tion. Some of them cannot under
stand how 1t is in this love of humor that
he rests his mind. The laugh breaks the
strain which his position necessarily en-
tails. The mayor Is a good story teller,
and his best stories are the "reminiscences
of his own life, which has been A Jypically
American one.
How n Country BOY Conquered.
Mayor Strong's life-story is that of a
country boy who came to New York ana
succeeded. He was, you know, born IN
Ohio. His early years were spent upon a
farm. and one of his first business ven
lures was in a small store at Mansfield,
o. Mansfield is now a town of 2O.UO peo-
pie. When Mayor Strong was young, l
doubt whether il had 1900. but among its
Young men it included some of the bright
est minds of the United States. One of Mr..
Strong's associates and friends was John
sherman, who had come to Mansfield from
a school at Mount Vernon TO study law
with his brother Charley. 1t must have
been during Mr.. Strong's mercantile eX-
perience there that Sherman became a
candidate for congress and canvassed the
district, going about with an old white
horse, and stopping at the country cross
roads to make speeches. Another young
man was Amos Townsend, who afterward
went to Cleveland and made a big fortune

WEYI.ER'S PERSECUTION
CONTINUES TO CAPTURE AND
HOLD CUBAN WOMEN.
One Now Held Incommunicado Because
Her Husband Is An Officer In
Gomezs Army,

New York, June ia dispatch from
Havana to the Jiurnal says:
Weyler continues his persecution of
helpless Cuban women who have rela-
tives in the rebel ranks. Sonora Sar-
dug, whose husband is a Cuban leader,
lately captured, was dragged from her
home and thrown into the house of de-
tention, where sine will be kept incom-
municado until after her husbands
courtmartial and execution at Cabana
Castle.
Six insurgents who surrendered to
Spanish authorizes at Santiago de Gu
ba and who expected to be pardoned
and parolled under Weyler's amnesty
DEGREES, have since been courtmartial-
ed and are to be shot.
The town of FL Calico, on the wes-
tern trocha was entered by insurgents
recently. They visited the local Span
ish hospital and confiscated all medi-
cines and supplies in sight but did
not menace the inmates.
DR.. Pagueras, wounded Cuban sur
geon from Castillos' staff, who had
struggled himself in Havana to recu-
perate, was discovered by Spanish po-
lice and sent to the military hospital
of San Ambrosio.
Ell Concrete, in an editorial compli-
mentary to Premier Canovas, says that
supported by Dupuy de LONE at
Washington, he endeavors to maintain
the apparently good relations with the
United States, simply to gain time to
reinforce the armada, better fortify
Cuban forts and complete certain dry
docks already under way.

A BIG FAILURE.

New York, June ia special to the
Herald from st. Pierre, Marquette,
says:
Intense excitement prevails here in
commercial circles owing to the failure
of the house of Aries & Co., which has
suspended payment with liabilities
amounting to more than a million dol
lars. There are large assets, but I'M
available at present. ...
The failure carries in its train the
stoppage of six or seven sugar facto-
ries, which have been supplied with
funds by this firm through the sugar
making season, and will throw several
thousand persons out of employment.
The British Colonial bank has ceased
selling drafts on New York and the
general outlook is gloomy.
