Larqest Railroad Station.

According to President Cassatt, the new Pennsylyania Railroad station now build- ing will be the largest in the world. The station will occupy two blocks of an eight-acre plot. None of the big buildings of the world nor the palaces of the mid dle ages can compare with It. Ihe "Schloss' in Berlin is $50 feet long, the Pitt in Florence 672, the vatican over 700 but all these buildings are oblongs surrounding large courtyards.
 Of the great cathedrals St. Pauls IS a little less than two acres-less, that is, than two-thrds of one long block;' Milan a little more than two acres Match less St. Peters covers four acres but in cubic contents and in massiveness far exceeds the new station. A single one of its four pillars supporting the dome covers the area of a fair-sized church in New York.
 But all other structures are trivial be- side the pyramid of Cheops, whose base was, according to Herodotus, sos feet square and is still 76S feet square, and whose original height was 4S0 feet. Gov ering thirteen acres, or more than three Hong blocks" with the streets between, towering 100 feet above the pinnacle of the Park Row building and practically solid masonry, 1t is the most remarkable of all human contructons.

 The hours Ait away. the days speed on, and even the weeks hurry past, and still no word comes from Jedge Handy Andy Hamilton. How much longer must Amer ican ears yearn for the sound of his dull cet voice, American eyes languish for the sight of his distinguished presence, and American leaders sigh for his arrival in their midst? Too long--far too long-al- ready has he been absent from these loving shores, lured away by the ficke gayeties and romantic pastures of Flu rope. Too long-far too long-already has he been away from the busy marts and legislative masonry of America. where he shone forth an ornament of purest ray serene.
 And while all America cries thus for the jedge he fiirts with the goddesses. the fauna and flora of continent across the deep blue sea.

Jerome Stirs 'Em Again.

Jerome. New York county's warlike dis trict attorney, has stirred the town again this time by an attack on the justices of the supreme court. Here are rev of the things he said about them:
 with few exceptions I not only have no reverence for tEe supreme court judges of this department but have not even common ordinary respect for them .. I found judges going bareheaded to a coarse, vulgar man like Murphy ana begging to be nominated for places on the bench. There is more than one man on the bench today who is close. too close, to commercial interests.
 The judges have had little to say in re- ply. Most of them would say nothing One admitted that he was engaged Tn outside business, but declared that that was purely a private affair. It might go a long way toward purifying the bench if the justices would come out and 'in- dignantly'' deny the charges Then MT. Jerome would set about proving what he has said, and no lawyer in the oity doubts that he could do it. It is mat ter of public knowledge that the justices have to dabble in politics to get their nominations and the lawyers know that some of them are too much interested Tn outside matters to sit impartially on the bench.
 MT. Jerome made his attack in speech at the political independence dinner or the City club. The club had succeeded in getting together the greatest aggre- gation of 'boss busters ever gathered under one roof. Besides MT. Jerome there were present John Weaver or Phlladel- phia. Tom L. Johnson of Ohio and Ever cit Colby of New Jersey. The specially of each is to eat bosses alive. In fact, the whole country seems to be on .boss busting" lark. Trust busting has gone out of ia ,n.

THE WEEKS TALK IN NEW YORK CITY Have Corporate Combinations
 Reached the Limit? AND WILL THEY CRUMBlt? Samuel Untermyer, the Corporation Lawyer, Answers "Yes'-Relent-
 less Insurance GuilIatine.
 Whacks Judge.
AND WILL THEY CRUMBLt?
BY SEWELL HAGGARD.

New York, December 2.-(Special 1.-The recent disclosures of modern methods of organizing big financial concerns has set men to thinking. Samuel Untermyer, the great corporation lawyer. says that porate conditions" Mr Untermyer porate combinations" MT. Untermeyer is competent to speak on this subject. By his knowledge of corporation methods he earns $500,OO0 a year in fees, charging 5000 every time he appears In court. DIS cussing the matter, he said: We have reached the line of safety In corporate combinations. In my Judgment the world will never again see an in- dustrial corporation attempted on the scale of the United States Steel Corpora ton. It is unweldy.
 "The working out of these great indus trial combination in the United States has clearly s-><wn the professional finan- cier what the extreme frontiers of his powers are in that direction. Corpora tions have become too vast. too clumsy, too remote from the original guiding hands and controlling brains for contin- ued success in the competition with in- dividual effort.
 Tn my judgment the very big indus trial corporations will gradually grow weaker, will fall into what might be called a state of senility. They contain the clements of their own destruction That much, at least, is plain.
 q refer to those in which the element of individuality is disappearing, which ap- plies to most of them. There are some where the element of individual inter est is retained In those cases their power will increase, but they are few In num- Der. l know of only three such cases Tn which combination has been great ben eft and has served merely to accentuate the great ability and resourcefulness ot the guiding spirits.
 "The movement toward centralization was not inspired by Wall street. It did not originate in the mind of the banker financier. On the contrary, the bankers were loath to support the idea at hrst and fought against it. It was thought of the manufacturer pressed by cruel and ruinous competition and of the lawyer financier.
 Tt all came about in this way: The manufacturer went to his lawyer and said I am not making dollar. Com petition is killing my business. The law yer's suggestion was Why not combine with your competitor and so get rid Of wasteful competitiong

Footballs Death kneII.

Football must go or else be so changed that the players of today would not reeog- nize game if they saw it. Columbia uni- versity has taken the lead by abolishing the game altogether and perhaps some of the other universities will have the hardihood to follow suit. With football out of the way the poor grind will have a chance. Heretofore no matter how nigh the grind ranked in his studies 1t was the fellow who broke an arm or smashed in his ribs playing football that got all the applause It was the football player to whom the chapter houses were opened wide and who received the social honors Besides being menace to life and limb the game threatens the scholastic welfare of the schools. The record of fatalities this season is really appalling. So far nineteen players have been killed and loo badly injured.

Mccurdy the Latest Victim.

Richard A. McCurdy, another of the men whose regulations have been blasted
 by the insurance investigation has re- signed as president of the Mutual Life Insurance company and his son followed him. The McCurdy's like many others ex- posed in the present investigation have lost all respect They have made them selves impossible. If the testimony given on the witness stand is to be credited the officers of the great insurance companies have managed their affairs in the spirit that a second hand clothing shop would be conducted. Deceit and trickery seem ed to be the chief stock in trade. Every body who had right to know how things were going was hoodwinked. Through the state superintendent of insurance the pub lie was bamboozled and the policyholders were cheated and deceived. There was a vast system of crookeduess which for .
