BELMoNT's FORTUNE,

New York Press. If Wall street is
right in its Information August Bel
mont is making money faster than any
other man in America, With one or tive
exceptions. The financial gosSipS place
the increase in his wealth at from ST.
U0c, 600 to SIG, o00.0 0 dollars in the last
year.
Attention has been directed to Mr..
Belmont largely by the sensational rise
in marlborough Rapid Transit stock.
y little more than a year ago it sold as
low as 81 or IS. Within the last two
weeks it has touched 22S. a rise of about
ii0 points within a year. Nothwith-
standing the fact that last year was one
OF good rises in the prices of stocks,
there has been nothing to equal the adj
vance in marlborough. Mr.. Belmont
and his friends have made vast fortunes
in it. Young Cornelius Vanderbilt is
said to be $1,000. 900 dollars better off
as a result of its rise. Sonle shrewd
traders who buy largely foc investment
went in n bought the stock on the
curb. where it is traded in. and have
leaned up some neat sums.

elevated. OH which 1t has agreed to pay

lessee from the city Of the subway. Few
of those who know of the inside work
!i,SS of the marlborough finances pre-.
lend to state that the capital stock OF
the company represents an outlay of
Sc. 900. 900.
In connection with the acquisition of
the Manhattan lease by the Inter
borough a story that is interesting.
Whether true or not. has long beer cir
culated in Wall street. When Mr.. Bel
mont took up the subway deal George
j. Gould n others interested in Man
haitian elevated are said to have been
fearful of the competition that might
be injected into the local traction field.
TIL. elevated WAS thought to be good
property. II more than able to hold
its W against the surface lines. but
when ii came to long hauls. the sub
way might cut down its earning power.
Mr.. Gould is said to have informed
Mr.. Belmont. who was already too deep
In the subway plan To get out. that
the marlborough would have TO take

on.tic stock. or else be prepared to face
II cut to a 3 cent fare. Mr.. Belmont
took a few days to think il over. The
subway was an infant proposition. 1t
might make money on a ) cent fare
eve in competition with the elevated,
but he felt hat 5 cents might old forth
Il promise of loss. He agreed to Mr..
co3ia's terms.
BY economical management and Civ
ing the closest attention to the trac-
tion problem the Manhattan has been
made to pay i per cent. to be turned
over to the original stockholders. and
at the same time yield a surplus of {
per cent to be diverted into the Golfers
of the PETERBOROUGH. In this way the
deal that was literally squeezed out
of the reluctant Mr.. Belmont has TIE
suited to his gain.

THE sToRM.PE7REL.
Prose Poem by Maxim eorky

Translated by Abraham Cahan.
Over the gray cXDanse of sea the win.
is gathering the clouds. Circling two
the clouds and the sea. like a black flash
of lightning. is the storm petrol on high.
Now touching a wave with his wing. now
shooting |heavenward, dart-like. he is cry
ing and the clouds hear glad tidinSs in his
cry.
There is thirst for storm in that cry.
The force of rage. the flame of passion.
the confidence OF victory do the clouds
hear III that cry.
The gulls are grooming before the storm.
Groaning and tossing over the sea: ready
to hide their terror at the bottom of the
sea.
The carsccse, too. are grooming. Thc joy
of the struggle Is unknown to them; the
din of strife awes them.
The silly albatross hides his fat body in
the cliffs. The proud storm-pctrel alone
is soaring boldly, freely over the sea. the
waves, singing, dancing on high, coming to
meet the thunder.
The thunder roars. Foamins with fury.
the waves are raging. battling with the
wind. Now the wind seizcs a flock OF
waves in gigantic embrace, now hurls
them With savage hate to the rocks. shat
tering them to dust and masses of emerald
spray.
Shouting ioyously, the storm-petrel is
circling like a black flash of lightning
piercing the clouds like a spear. brushing
the foam off the waves with It's wings.
There he is, flying like a demon. a proud
black storm demon, laughing INT sobbins
at once. Ii is at the clouds he is laugh
ing. it is for JOY he is sobbing.
In the thundcr's rage the sensitive
demon perceives a weary note. the voice
of defeat. He knows that the clouds can
not coaceal the sun-not they.
The wind is signing: the thunder is
pcaling. Hundreds of clouds CLEAN biuisl
over the preciDice of the sea. The sea is
| catching darts of lightning and smother
ing them in its bosom. Like serpents O
fire the reflections Of the lightning are
writing. vanishing one after the other.
The storm is ADVANCING! Another min
ute and the storm will come with a crash
1t is the intrepid storm-petrel who 1
proudly carecring among the flashes o
lightning over the roaring. infatuated sea
it is the prophet Of victory who is shout
ing.
Let the storm blow and roar with all it
might.
