Wi,heIn's Opinion Of Morgan.


The Kaiser is quoted as giving his
Impressions of J. p. Morgan as fol-
lows Try as could, his conversa-
ton failed to reveal to me that ne
had any clear comprehension OF tle
vast harmonies and conflicts of the
commercial universe. / was amazed
to find MIN not well informed re
garding the historical and philoso-
phical development Of nations, His
political economy leaves him uncon-
ccrned regarding socialism. which un-
Goubtedly will soon constitute the
NEST stupendous question every
where. Mr. Morgan confessed that
be had never been sufficiently inter
cstcd to study into wlat socialism
means exactly. His ambition is to
remodel the world, but | can't see
where he has mad single great idea.
His chief merit lay in seizing the
right time in which to effect combines
m a scale which nobody has hereto
frra dared to attempt. But in so do
ing MIR Morgan was rather the IN
strament Of irrepressibie economic
forces than an invontiye genius" " The

AT a beefsJeak dinner given recent
Iv at Palm Garden, Greene and Ham
burg avenues, among a few friends,
Michael Schmidt, a cigar manufac-
turer. and Herman Hochwart, one OF
the proprietors of the garden, entered
into a contest as to who had the best
appetite. the contest being for hand

Times The others at dinner watched
the contest with much enjoyment.
The referee selected was Frank Ross,
a. partner of Hochwart, who claims
to be the champion steak eater OF
the country. The contestants started
off eating three dozen Little Neck
clans. six plates of chowder, three
small Ioaves of rye bread. aud then
the steaks were tackled. When Hoch-
wart had finished seven and a half
pounds of steak he withdrew from

different tribes OF
very remarkable savages'
without counting the plsmv
lssassasl negritos, dwell in the interior
of Mindanao, numbering prop
ably not less than 100000 in all, ana
government ethnologists have already
begun to make a study of them. IN
asmuch as nothing worth mentioning
has been known about them hitherto
there is plenty to learn. but soou
many facts have been collected, ana
race map" of the great lsland mas
been drawn. to accompany report on
the subject which will be submitted
to Congress next December.
One of the most notable or the
tribes is that of the Bagobos, VINO
dwell. according TO their own oellel'
at the gates OF hell. They offer nu-
man sacrifices to the devil, who llNes
with his wives on the top OF an actlNe
volcano in their neighborhood. Inc
monsters name is Mandarangan, and
it is necessary to appease him with
regular supplies of blood, which is his
only drink. Inasmuch as each Bagobo
has two souls. one of which goes TO
heaven and the other to the Internal
regions, he feels particularly ANXIOUS
TO placate the arch-tiend.
The origin of these tribes is uncer-
tain. Presumably they came origin
allv from the mainland OF Asia, al
though some authorities are OF the
opinion that they vOyaged al! the way
from Madagascar, and they certainly
arrived later than the ne2ritos. Ihey

before the MOrOs VINO in recent times

gent. and rather light of skin, with

The most numerous OF these tribes
are the Subanos. which number about
10000: the Tagadauas. which are eStl

are reckoned at 10000: the Monteses
who are put down at 23,OuO; the Man

as follows:
Mr.. F. s. Dickson and Mr.. George

reported that "the properties are thor
