New York. November 12-The makers Of bromo
settler and Kutnow powders are thankful the Mo
lineux case is ended. Their business has suffered
seriously not only in this city but throughout the
country Druggists report that from the time the
coroners inquest began until long after the first
trial they could hardly give away bromo setzer so
strong became the public feeling owing to the knowl
edge that the poisoner used this remedy as a means
to reach his intended victim. Kutnow powders be
came a drug on the market Trade in the two prep
aratons revived slightly in the time between the
two trials but again the public fights shy of
them. 1t will be years before the lurking indehn-
able fear suspicion bred by this famous case will
have passed from the minds OF men sufficiently TO
restore dealings in the two medicines their former
level
1t is common for us TO refer contemptuously to
the Parisans the Latins generally as a mercurial
hare Drained lot, carried away any excess by tho
sensation of the hour. No who saw the crazy ac
lions Of the mobs about the Tombs about the Brook.
Ign bridge and about Molineuxs home in Brooklyn
after the prisoners release doubt that the great
body of New Workers afflicted with the same form
of hystera. Admiral Dewey T. Roosevelt would
have been small potato compared with the crafty,
miserable creature upon whom the mad multitude
vented its frenzied enthusiasm and women weep
ing for joy, showered and other flowers. Not
one person in a hundred in those great mobs would
take dose of bromo prepared by Moneux, yet all
went daft in the wild outburs that followed his
quittal There's thing, however that be
said for the American mob 1t gets sober almost as
rapidly Il gets intoxicated. Therein is safety.

THE CAREER OF BLACK.
Frank S Black, former governor of New York
who was chief counsel for Molineux proved himself
one of the foremost pleaders the bar has ever pro
duced, but he out of the with his reputa
ton a sullied. 1t may be, the lawyers
say that counsel for a whose life is at stake
is justified in going to any length to him. but
deep down in the great heart of the public it
viii be forgotten that Black went to the extreme of
only accusing Cornish Of being the real posoner
but of assailing the reputation of Mrs Rogers and
insnuatlng that She in order to stiGe her mothers
protests against her relations with Cornish was
passive if not active confederate in the plot to kill
her. lawyer has unbridled license under the cloak
of the court in case like this, but the man who
lends himself to such monstrous abuse OF his rights
brings upon himself the penalty of loss of self re-
spect and the loss of public respect The wise man
and the good attacks a woman.
Black is only 40 He was one Of the youngest Ha.

had so much property that he couldn't tell without

MORGAN THE MODERN MIDAS
D 0 c K, DIT o r.

The time was when the average rich man gained
his comparatively modest wealth by hard work and
years Of economy. During that time there were
exceptional circumstances whereby a man. here and
there, became wealthy through the enhanced value
of realty holdings. The time before the time Of
modest wealth, riches were confscated by force,
through armed raids. Economy nor industry cut
any figure in the massing Of wealth in these times.
Fabulous fortunes, accumulations beyond the
widest dreams of Croesus, mines Of mammon of
such immeasurability as would have driven Midas
mad, are now accumulated within a few days or
in many hours. Riches are no longer earned or
ever created by those who control them. They are
gobbled up corralled by the manipulation of ex-
listing conditions. million people in a lifetime
Of industry and economy could not earn so much
wealth, in the aggregate, as ]. Pierpont Morgan
has raked in for himself within few weeks by COM
bining certain lines of interests in way to emi-
nate competition. He has not created value,
per Sc, to the amount of dollar but he has en-
HANGED the value CT certain interests and industries

way Of commissions. It is said that he is to get
1919 millions of dollars for organizing the steam
ship combine and that ne received fifty millions
Of dollars for organizing the steel trust and many
millions more for fnanciering and manipulating
other combines and trusts. In most instances the
stocks of the interests or industries when combined
were doubled in price and in supposed value, based
On the fact Of greater profits. Whether such esti-
mate Of increase value is fictitious one or not time
alone can demonstrate, but it is upon such supposed
enhancement that Morgan collects his enormous
fees. How long, or to what extent this kind of
thing go is probably questionable Every
thing in this world in being self-compensating is
selfregulating in the end. These untold millions
of appreciated values may prove purely speculative
when they come to hypothecation or to the under
written, in which event such financial collapse
as the world never dreamed may result The mil

4 NEW STATESMAN uNEARTHEp.

Shaw, Of the wild and woody west successor to
Lyman Gage as Secretary OF the Treasury, made
speech the other night which is being criticised in
some quarters, especially in England, and by Amer
leans who happiest in aping British royalty The
thing that Shaw said which hurts the worst was in
effect that the stars and stripes will some day take
the place Of the Union Jack in the worlds com
merce on the high seas" Such a boast is not want
ing in the breezness of prairie zephyr but there
IS much truthfulness and forcefuness in the
declaration. The truth is America under high
protective tariff has been Systematically endeavor-
ing to render absete that old refrain about Britannia
ruling the wave, with the result that not only En-
gland, but Germany, Russia and France are hedging
against Yankee ingenuity and thrift. 1t takes
western man to jar the standard of proprieties set
up by American apes and English snobs. but all the
same the western man with his aggressiveness is
destined to dominate the affairs of this country very
soon now and for long time to come. and to dom
mate the political and commercial affairs Of Amer
lea is to dominate the commercial and industrial
interests Of the world. Shaws home is west Of the
Mississippi, but his brain seems in the right place
