! There. have. been such periods in

and in every country there will be such
PERIODS again. But in no country are
the conditions which produce them con-

The period of imitation is followed

1t is the scertainty afEthe coming of
the reaction in the Tai4ed States that
causes the huge Morgan pyramid of
paper values to be regarded the world
over with apprehension. The steel
trust is capitalized. It's constitu-
ent businesses werel acquired at the
best possible estimate iof their worth

railroad concerns have Ito bear bur-

The Atlantic shipping combine is
an almost ludicrous example of over
capitalization. There is absolutely no
relation between the paper value Of
the company and the actual CONNER
clal value Of the ships which COM
prise the company's possessions.
These things are recognized by men
OF business the world over, and the

, LONDON, Jan. 17.-While 1t would
not be fair to say that j. p. Morgan is
regarded adversely by the majority of
Englishmen, there are many shreWd
f1nanciers here who are capable Of siz=.
ing up the Colossus of Finance. 7
Indeed, some, of the men who have
been watching the moves of this astute.
manipulation on the seas of interna-
tfonal finance, see in his work signs
of coming financial Armageddon, d
world cataclysm or industrialism and,
signs of ruin so widespread that all the
prophecies of all the prophets would
have to be fulfilled in order to make
the picture complete.
If what one of these readers of the
future has to say about the matter
comes true the people Of the United
States have dire times ahead.
Taken for what they are worth the
statements of this gentleman are at
least worth a perusaL Some Of his
conclusions are as follows:
The commerce Of the United States
must indeed before long be the worse
fer his operations, and for the national
spirit of which he is the type and ex.
ample. For Mr.. Pierpont Morgan has
no monopoly in the United States Of
financial imitation He is the greatest
exponent of the art, but the practice or
it is universal. The ratio Of progress
sion in the past few years has been
accepted by a sanguine and enthusi-
.astic people as an established ratio
to continue indefinitely. Every value
has appreciated with growing prosper
ity until the continued growth of pros
perity has come to be regarded as a.
settled condition justifying further APP
probation.

Victoria theater, New York, beginning
Monday, Feb. 16. AS Maslova, Miss
Walsh will undoubtedly have the
chance Of her life, as the role Is pc
cullarly well suited to this actress

tIzation of Count TolstOi's book has
made such tremendous success in
Paris that it's fame has spread all over
Europe, with the result that the play
has been translated into half a dozen

will be produced in Berlin and in vi

Beerbollm Tree will bring it out in Feb
ruary, and it is now being rehearsed in
Milan, Brussels and in Holland Hun
gary, Scandinavia, Portugal and Spain
have all acquired rights to the piece.
The version that will be used by Miss
Walsh is the same that is now running
at the OdeOn theater, Paris, and that
Beerbohm Tree will present in London
very shortly, and Sorma at the Les
sing theater, Berlin.

Have Occurred in St. Paul

The marriage laws of Minnesota
should be amended" continued The
deputy, so that first cousins could not
marry. Under the present statutes
first cousins are permitted to marry
in this state, and there are not a few
licenses issued to couples who are thus
related. Many people believe, Also
that the law should prevent intermar-

Questions for Applicants.
In applying for a marriage license
IN 81. Paul, the applicant must give
the age Of both himself and the pros
pective bride, their residence, state
whether either Of them have ever be-
tore been married, and whether either
OF the applicants were ever commit
ted for insanity.
The law provides that a woman Iiy-
ing IN Minnesota must be married in
the county in which she lives, if mar
RED within the state, although a man
from one county can secure a license
IN any other county in the state. Par
ueS must nave been divorced for more
NAiStAi SiA IliOI1lIS DeIOrG- IheY can secure
a Incense for another marriage. Under
the provisions Of the Minnesota statutes
Incense can be issued to a girl past
n1teen without the consent of her MR.
entS' ana 10 young man Who is more
IMAM eighteen. However. many Ii
censes are refused on account Of the
youth of the applicants which could l.a
issued without violating the law.
rev persons have any idea of the
trlckery that is resorted to when one
or both parties desiring a license are
too young, and have not the consent
OF their parents. Sometimes a friend
is brought along to impersonate The
father of the bride, if she is too young.
Not always do the applicants know
that an oath must be taken. A few
weeks aSo a couple entered the clerk s
ONCE, and the minute they stepped up
to the marriage license window the
deputy sized the girl up as being too
young.
You will have to bring the young
lady's father or mother said the deD-
uty.
