ROBERT REAI PA|NE.
A Man Of Wealth, Culture, and
Social Position,
BUT STILL A CHAMPION
Of the Cause Of the Common Peo-
ple-He Has Been Nominated for
Governor Of Massachusetts, on a
Platform That Suits Him But Dis
pleases His Wealthy and Aristo-
cratic Friends and Neighbors.

Special to the Register.
BOSTON, October H.-Robert Treat
Paine's nomination as the Democratic
candidate for Governor Of Massachu-
sets is one of the most sensational up
heavals in this State of the political
cataclysm that was felt in its first full
strength in 1885, The party that stands
for the most radical departures in the
interest of the House Of Want has
named as its standard bearer this year
one of the most conspicuous scions Of
the House of Have. Robert Treat
Paine, Jr., is not only very rich
young man, but is the heir of gener-
ations of social distinction that no
other family in Massachusetts, excels.
His t-great-grandfather Robert
Treat Paine, who signed the Declara-
ton of Independence, was a Federalist
Judge, and among the wealthiest and
most aristocratic members of that
party. His great grandfather, Robert
Treat Paine, was a distinguished MEM
Der of the Blue-Lights Federalist party,
so-called because certain of its members
on the Connecticut coast who sympath-
lied with England in the war of 1912
were charged witt, having set out blue
lights to warn approaching British YES
sells of danger His father was a
staunch Republican until 1854, when
he bolted Blaine.
The ancestral back ground of Robert
Treat Paine, Jr., indeed, is all aristoc-
racy and wealth. And it is from
proud and powerful clan of Wings and
Hamiltonian Tories that he merges, a
vision Of Jeffersonian knighthood, to
dazzle with his strange armor the
amazed aristocrats Of Massachusetts,

HENRY CLEWS'S
Weekly Review of Wall street and Fiuan-
cial Conditions.


Special to the Register.
NEW YORK. October 21-The Wall
street horizon looks somewhat brighter
Extensive covering of short" contracts
and reader buying by the larger opera
tors indicate a change Of tone, and on
the whole the tendency Of the week has
been towards ''bull'' ascendancy. There
has been no notable increase in the
volume Of transactions, and as yet the
gain is chiefly seen in increased snap
and confidence; which is perhaps all
that could be expected in the first
moments Of escape from a protraeted
depression. This recovery Is largely
due to the improved aspects Of the local
money market. The drain of currency
to the interior is abating, and he near
prospect Of the refiux OF money to this
center is trusted 10 bring about an early
revival Of speculative securities
An ultimately active and much higher
market is almost universally accepted
as a foregone conclusion, and for mani
fest reasons. Upon a wide range Of
stocks, prices are low as compared with
such an extraordinary activity in trade
as now exists throughout the country.
All accounts from the West represent
the prosperity among the farmers as
surprising everything in past expert
ence. The manufacturing ceutsrs also
present an activity exceeding all prece-
dent. Everywhere, industrial plants
appear TO be running TO their full capac-
ity, and IN many cases day end night.
Labor was never so fully employed aid
never, as a rule, received such high
wages; the effect Of which must appear
in large increase Of general eonsump-
ton among the working masses. The
recent increase in the foreign demand
for our manufactures-now amounting
TO 1893 100000 per year. against sl5S,-
600 900 six years ago-appears TO be los
ing none Of it's remarkable progress. in
spite Of the enlarged home consumption.
The mercantile classes are being bepe-
fitted by a continuous rise in the value Of
their stocks Of goods, and their profits
are in welcome contrast TO the unsatis-
factory results of the last five years Of
depression. All this reflects the re-
lease Of enterprise from the restraints
Of the depression consequent upon the
silver craze and the over-produetlon Of
the last five or six years. II means
that, for that period, the demand OF the

with common consent, the people are in
the act Of compensating for their past

keen observers Of Wall street. there is
any adequate conception OF what this
change OF conditions implies as to the
magnitude Of the demand now pressing
upon the market and the industries Of
the country. True. it is nothing new
TO have period of trade depression fol-
lowed by q run Of prosperous activity;
but we have never before witnessed
situation in which this kind of revival
has existed uponsa scale of such magnis
tude as we now witness. We are now
only in the beginnings of this reaction;
and for that reason it may be expected
that the movement will run on for a
considerable period before it reaches
the point of OVERRIDING. During the
interval the excitement attending such
a condition of things can hardly fail to
develop bull speculations in every diTec-
ton. but especially in Wall street. The
profits of business will naturally drift
to where speculation has its chief mar
ket; and the stocks OF prosperous in
dustries and the securities of railroads
reporting unprecedented earnings Will
afford material enough for a boom on
the stock exchange sooner or later sur
passing anything recorded.
So far as respects domestic move
ments, the money market is working to-
wards an easier condition, and bankers
western correspondents report that
their money wants have aeen for the
most part satisfied, while others report
a probable early return of exchange in
favor of New York. So far as respects
foreign factors affecting this market
the prospect is uncertain enough 70
keep the local banks still cautious in re-
spect to time loans. London appears
bent upon holding its control of the yell
low metal well in hand; and. with ex-
change here so near the gold exporting
point. it might be no difficult matter
for the Bank of England to get 2 few
millions from u.s. Such an effect how
ever, would come through manipulation
rather than as the natural outcome OF
international balances. The trade bal
ance is now even more in our favor
than it was a year ago. For the three
months, July. August and September,
the exports of merchandise, gold and
silver combined were SLOT 100000 in ex-
cess Of the like imports. while for tho
same quarter of 1898 the surplus OF ex-
ports was only $77,000,000. This fact
does not imply that we are exposed to
any early shipment of gold; it rather
indicates the opposite, But 1t is not
easy to say what Is impossible under
the exigencies Of a great national bank.

wealth in western railroads, but who
achieved in recent years his widest
fame by thrice successfully defending the

How many of the hundreds of rich
and aristocratic Republicans of this
State who are bound to the Paines by
family and social ties will restrain their
customary substantial opposition to the
Democratic ticket because of the pres
ence of Robert Treat Paine, Jr.. at the
head of that ticket, it is impossible to
tell, but that he will receive votes in
plenty from those who would not sup
port George Fred Williams when he
ran for Governor is indicated by the
fact that Josiah Quincy, the mayor of
Boston, has published a letter against
Williams and the Democratic State
committee, in which he states, how
ever, that he Will support Paine for per
sonal reasons.
For all the aristocracy of his ances-
try. it is easy TO see where young Mr..
Paine gets his spirit of quixotic cham
pionship of the poor. The father or
Robert Treat Paine, Jr., Is one or the
notable personalities OF Boston. He IN
herited and married some wealth, out
he made fortune of his own out OF the
opportunities for investment that were
afforded to him by his position as le-
gal counsel for the Calume, & Hecla
Mining Company and his interest in the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rail-
road Like all the Paines, he Is a Har-
ward graduate. He gave up the prac-
tice of law in 1870 when he was 30,
having accumulated all the money that
he wanted, and thereupon dedicated the
remainder of his life to practical phil
anthropy. He has become better known
in this field than almost any other

He helped to organize the Associated

ial Institute, the largest working mems
club in the country, embracing a loan
association, two co-operaivet banks and
a building association, and he raised
the subscriptions Of $4,000 for the In

sights of Boston. In 1887 he gave $780,

COUNTERPART OF CHICAGO.
The City of Buda-Pesth Often Likened
to the Great Lakeside
Metropolis.

Buda-Pesth, the second great city OF
Austro-Hungary, is often alluded to as
another Chicago. The resemblance can
be only in the marvellous growth of the
city and in the enterprise of it's in
habitants. There is very little in fea-
lures of the one place to suggest those
of the other. But, like Chicago, it is al
ways doing something good, bad or
middling good or bad, that gives the
people and newspapers of the world oc-
casion to talk about it. 1t is the sensa-
tional city, at any rate, of it's own part
of Europe.
Just now Buda-Pesth is having q
great real estate boom, which the en-
Peror-king is disposed to help along.
II is announced that he has invested a
very large sum there in building land
and has given directions that it shall be
built upon forthwith. Vienna is be-
ginning to acknowledge that it's splen-
doris are in some danger of being
rivaled, if not eclipsed, by Buda-Pesth.
A letter lately written from Vienna to
London paper has this paragraph:
AS matter Of fact the progress of
Hungary in general, and it's capital in
particular, since they enjoyed home
rule, has been considerable. Even in
Vienna it is freely conceded that the
Hungarians have proved themselves to
possess remarkable business aptitude.
and that while Vienna declines Pesth
goes ahead. One very marked ad-
vantage which Hungary has over Aus
tria is in the character of her nobility.
While the Austrian aristocracy resem-
bles that Of old France, and can neither
learn nor forget, the Hungarian, on the
other hand, Identifies itself with every
thing that is progressive and likely to
add to the national resources. The Hun
garian grandees have now nearly de-
serted Vienna. A few remain their
palaces there, but seldom occupy them,
and 1t is the same with the Bohemians."
