 very good both as to appearance and action In the drama "Loncoln." he has attempted an impersonation on much more elaborate scale than ever before. He has certainly succeeded fn reproducing the atmosphere of the time. or at least what one feels must have been the atmosphere.
 But in spite of the fact that Lin coln'' is is not a bad drama considered solely as a drama, and that most crit-- ics are agreed that MT. Chapin makes very good Lincoln, the play is not satisfying. The Greeks could put their heroes on the stage, but they usually used only such heroes as had been dead for. many years. Perhaps two or three centuries in the future such produc- tions as "Lincoln" may meet with popular approval. Just now there is something incongruous about them. Lincoln, the real Lincoln, is two real to most of us to allow limitations of him 10 be altogether pleasing. Excellent irni- tation though it be, MT. Chapin's char acterization smacks just little of car- feature. Many can but view 1t in the light of well-meaning but real dese- cration.

AT WYLIES.
An Immense Stock of High Grade
 Gnods

An Immense Stock of High Grade
 Goods.
 Among the large and successful stores in this city none is more worthy of con- sideration than the establishment of A. K. Wylie, successor to John Bright X Co.,, S21 Chapel street.
 It is a well-known fact that for many years John Bright & Co. were leaders in their line of goods. No store here ahouts kept the quantity of goods they did, and as for quality, they took the palm MT. Wylie was associated in business with the old firm, and has been brought up in the business" so to speak. He is an acknowledged ex- pert in his line, and since succeeding to the entire management and ownership of the business he has greatly enlarged and developed it. At the present time he has the largest line of high-grade goods in this state. Space forbids go- ing into details, but few of the many articles to be had at his establishment will be mentioned: A complete line of everything in chinaware, crockery, glassware, comprising all that is new and rich in design and workmanship; lamps of acknowledged beauty and util- ity; bric-a-brac in great variety, etc., etc.; Haviland ware; open stock dinner ware, cholocate pots, chop dishes, bis cult jars, etc; novelties in shapes and decorations; royal Doulton English china and earthenware, and cauidron china and earthenware.j The specialties of English china are very fine and at- tractive; M. Redon, Limoges china, new fancy shapes in popular decorations; fine plates, teas, bouilFbhs, etc.
 The above conveys onlyia meagre idea of the variety and the richness of the stock of goods kept by Wylie. A visit to his store will reveal at a glance an immense stock of high-grade goods which it would be hard to duplicate anywhere and which cannot be equalled in this state.

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.
NEW YORK, April 17.-In a letter sent
to Mayor Mcclellan today, explaining his
absence from the Jefferson dinner of the
Democratic Club last night, Congressman
w. Bourke Cochran makes a bitter at
tack upon August Belmont for his meth
Cd Of operating the city railways and
brands William r. Hearst IAN apostle
of violence and disorder
He declares that, unless something Is
done to dispel the growing conviction
that corporations are in fair way to
control the Government, there is little
doubt that the people at the next election
will arise In wrath against both political
parties and, If there be no other means
available to liberate themselves from a
bondage SO degrading, they may even
elect TO the Governors chair some advo-
cate of revolutionary and dangerous
measures.
He points out that Belmont, as presi-
dent of the Interborough- Metropolitan
merger, is in a position to do much to
advance the cause of Democracy by
granting general transfers between the
elevated surface and subway lines. Said
he:
1.-The strongest appeal of the Socialist
tc public opinion is assertion that un-
less the Government assumes ownership
of certain corporations the corporations
will acquire possession of the Govern
ment."
Both political parties, he charges, are
controlled by corporation interests so
completely that while the leaders pose
as opponents in politics they are in fact
partners in business.
IF this conviction becomes general, "
he says. "the people at the next election
may elect to the Governors high posi-
tion some advocate of revolutionary ana
dangerous measures who. possessing
enormous wealth and several newspapers,
stands ready to employ all his riches in
organizing the discontented. the vision
airy and the violent into an effective force
for the exploitation of his theories or
the qualification of his ambitions
"If reduced to choice between govern
ment by the exploiters of public utilities,
who are generally believed to have de-
veloped such efficiency in corruption that
our political system ,nust perish If it be
abandoned wholly to their control, and
the apostle of violence and disorder. who
proposes to cure corruption by measur es
of confusion and confiscation. an honest
man may well hesitate about the path
which he will elect TO pursue"

Court here today the plea of immunity
filed by the railway companies on the
basis of the decision by Judge Hum
