MoRGAN'S METHODS.
Employs No Private Secretaries and
Attends to All Details.

u. Pierpont Morgan's personality is
as exceptional as his financial genius
is phenomenal And his business
methods, as far as his personal acts
are concerned. are as unlike those of
the average multi-millionaire as they
can possibly be" says the New York
World.
"Self-reliance is the keynote of
everything that Mr.. Morgan does.
This habit explains in a measure
his absolute domination of everything
that he connects himself with. No
duty is too small or trivial in connec-
ton with one of his great deals to be
undeserving of his own personal at
tention.
This system gives him a compre-
hensive knowledge of any transaction
he undertakes which makes him it's
complete master Other men interest
ed in the same transaction are forced
to bow to his superior and more COM
plete knowledge. The average Wall
street magnate trusts to secretaries.
assistant secretaries and clerks to do
what Mr.. Morgan will trust to no one
but himself.
'He carries his system down
to an unexpected point. Anyone may
approach him in the Offices of J. p.
Morgan & Co. There is not even an
Office boy at the door of his room to
take the cards or messages Of visitors.
He works at his desk within sight of
his whole establishment.
1T would seem that this plan would
expose a man of Mr.. Morgan's great
fame and heavy responsibilities to all
kinds of Interruptions. But the re-
verse is the case.
mo Wall street man goes near Mr..
Morgan unless he has made a pre-
vious appointment No crank or idle
talker or troublesome person has ever
attempted twice to break in upon the
time of the great financier. Mr.. Nor
gan has habit of suppressing unwel.
come or bothersome visitors in a way
that the recipient never forgets. In
these moments Mr.. Morgan is not the
personihcation of gentleness nor the
exponent of placid, courtly English.
He is aggressive, emphatic and
seemingly rough in his manner at all
times. That is his normal state. He

struggled Bezsonoff felt the back of
this chair hang upon his arm, but
while it was being announced it
slipped off and at the instant DR.. Tour
said that it was hanging on his own
arm, which had been so firmly bound
to that of the medium. Then all the
strings of the guitar on the table were
twanged and the medium, still in a
trance, called for light. The whole
company then saw the chair hanging
to the arm of DIR. Tour, the arm being
thrust between the oak bars at the
back of it. The knotted cords hold
ing the wrists together, however. had
not been touched or slackened.
In describing his own experiences
with the medium DIR. Tour is quoted in
explanation of why he insisted on hav-
ing his arm tied to the mediums He
says:
'One popularity of all the expert
ments carried on with Sambor is his
extreme restlessness when entranced.
He is constantly twitching, cracking
his joints and producing groans which
are obviously genuine. He sways
from side to side and slips from his
chair to the floor. 1t is needless to
say that with man of SamDor's
youthful and rather powerful frame
such experiments are fatiguing for
both his neighbors. Moreover, the
close atmosphere throws him into a
violent perspiration, and the moisture
on his wrists, in spite of all the eff
forts of those who are holding him,
often enables him to slip them free for
moment. The possibility inevitably
undermines an observers faith in any
phenomena where there is room to
suspect that the mediums hand may
have been employed in a moment of
freedom. This was emphatically the
case with myself in the first of these
sittings."
But with his hand bound unmistak-
ably to that of Sambor's the Doctor
was satisfied He examined both
chairs for secret springs and found
none, yet the openings between the
bars at the backs were only 8 and
three-fourths by 10 and one-half inches
too small for the body of Sambor to
have gone through OF the strictly
physical side of the phenomena DR..
Tour says, unreservedly:
There was nothing for it; skep-
ticism had to sing small and make the
best of the facts, however strange at
the present stage of our knowledge of
nature"
In quoting DR.. Tour in his exper-
fences with Sambor the ST. Peters.
burg student of psychological pheno-
mena assumes the Doctors position
with reference to them-that the
physical facts were strange, let their
cause be what it may.
Salovovo refers also to Aksakoff's
experiences with Mrs. Fox-Jencken in
1888. He says that she was held by
two of the sitters, but that in spite of
the fact that her imprisoned hands
were visible on a plate of luminous
paint bells were rung and strange
hands, dimly luminous, moved about
the room, touching the sitters. Fin
ger marks also were left on piece of
smoked paper.
The Russian does not attempt to
throw any light on such seances. He
recognizes even that many frauds
have been perpetrated. But that he
recognizes some intangible influence
behind these material phenomena to
which he attests may be read every
where between the lines.-Chicago

Materialized Tradition.

In some countries of northern Eu.
rope newly'married couples are the
recipients of key of butter on their
wedding day, and when the marriage
takes place in winter frozen or sailed
meat is frequently given.
In Polynesia baby girls of year old
are placed in wicker cages, and in
wicker cages they remain until the
time they are married. Happily, the
children do not seem to mind much.
and they grow fat and healthy. At
the age of 2 years or Whereabouts most
of the little damsels leave their
cages to be married.
Widows in all countries are sup.
posed to be full of little wiles. and
certainly some of them have very
strange practices. Take, for. instance
an Arab woman who intends to marry
again The night before the wedding
she goes TO pay The late husbands
graye p visit. There she humbly
kneels and prays him not to be Jealous
or offended. Probably she believes
that he will be both. and that she must
make definite act to appease his
wrath. Accordingly she takes with
her mule bearing two goats skins OF
water. When her prayers are ended
she takes the water skins and pro.
seeds to saturate her husbands grave.
Whether a plentiful libation of cold
water has a soothing effect on the
spirit of the departed-or not may be a
matter OF conjecture, but having made
u the widow feels that she has done
all that can be required Of her. and
enters wedlock again without misgiy.

Madison. March .12.-The state will
continue to carry insurance on all
state buildings. Senator Mosher's
bill to abolish this custom was killed
in the senate yesterday on a tie vote.
In speaking for his bill, Senator
Mosher read figures showing that DUR
ing the past seven years the citizens
of Wisconsin have paid about $31 ,000,-
600 for fire insurance premiums, and
received about $15,500,000 for losses
by fire. During the past twenty years
the state has lost $1S3,00O by fire, and
is now paying $500 year for in
surance premiums. Senator Stout's
joint resolution for a constitutional
amendment permitting women to vote
was killed by vote which lacked
only one of being unanimous.
A bill over which there has been q
persistent struggle is that permitting
the admission to the Sparta state
schools of children under years OF
age. IL YVES ordered engrossed with
out dissent by the assembly with q
proviso that such children must not
be kept there more than 60 days
unless i'll. Another assembly bill
given third reading was Benson's
making trustees of county asylums a
board of health. Mr.. Barker's BIZ
prohibiting marriage within ore year
after divorce was rereferred to the

ment authorizing state and aid for

committee on roads and bridges.
Yesterday Assemblyman Hall adj
dressed the house earnestly on his
memorial to congress for the passage
of the Cullom interstate railway bill
and it was adopted unanimously. Len
roots, providing for the approval Of
franchises by popular vote was passed,
as was also the bill permitting coun-
ties to establish and maintain travel

bill creating the towns of North
Crandon, Waubena and Caswell out
of the towns of Crandon and Cavour
in Forest county Mr.. Spratt's bill,
requiring water companies to furnish
free water to manufacturers for fire
purposes was killed, but his other, pro
viding half pay pensions for police

who have served 25 years was adj
vanced to third reading. 1t applies
only to cities of the second class, but
it is generally regarded as an enter.

and school teachers. Other bills en-
crossed were: Requiring detectives to
pay license of 500 to the secretary
of state; granting the power to com
mon councils of cities and trustees
OF villages to license bill posters, dis
tributors and outdoor advertisers; and
giving the right to fire and police com
to discharge men without
reason when all the commissioners
are agreed. A favorable report was
made on the bill making it felony to
narcotics for the purpose
of committing crime. Senator Har>

sion. 1t seems that after the Wal
worth sheriff was in office the county
board agreed to give him $4,000 salary
in lieu of fees. It came out that a
Walworth taxpayer objected to the
transaction and was sustained by the
courts whereupon this appeal was
made to the legislature. The assembly
killed the bill because it sought to
legalize an unconstitutional act.
