| Vargas Villa es psicologo de oios
de lince. Los tipos de su obra son
tipos humanos, corrientes, familia-
Tres.
Vargas Villa denuncia los criml-
males de Su obra con una Sinceridad,
con una vehemencia sin iguales.
Terrible como Tirteo; ir6nico CO.
mo Marcial y expontaneo como ell

IEl romanticisno esta en- la forrna

Y yo pregunto; Iel naturalismo de
eSoS dos verSoS esta en- la forma 6
esta en- ell fondo2
! En- Ell fondol, reSponde la mayo
ria de los lefdos.
Siendo asi, la novela de Vargas
Villa es naturalista.
Como son naturaiistas la mayor
parte de las obras de Victor Hugo,
Cuando no habla de hadas.
Como son naturalistas la mayor
parte de las obras de Zola de Dau-
|det, reSpectivamente.
Yo entendiendo por natrralIsmo to-
da obra de arte en- la que concurra la
investigation del espiritu humane.
Victor Hugo. atento las armo-
mfas del ctelo: Zola, atento 4 la
lucha de pasiones humanas Y Dau-
det, atento la mlisica de la lexico-
logfa, son tres grandeS naturaliStas.
Esta es mi opinion.
-
Para fnalizar: Flor del Fango"
en- su factura es una obra detesta bic.
observation-disclosures es una obra
bien pensada.
En- conjunto, es una obra que no
es bella, que deja de serlo para ser
sublime.
Sublime, porque es una obra inten-
sa. rara, extraordinaria en- sus des-
igualdades caprichosas; pero impo-
nente y magnffica como el empuje
de los condores andinos Y como los
impetus atroces y rugientes- del
Magdalena.

LOCAL FINANCIAL GOSSIP.

Total collapse of the recent bgll move
ment in Washington Railway and Eleetric
common and heavy buying on the part
OF one broker of all the Washington Loan
and Trust offered at 2l7 were the two
principal features OF the meeting of tEc
Washington Stock Exchange yesterday.
The speculative squirt IN railway com
mon, which carried the price up about
three points in four days 10 the ~ point,
received a serious setback. Brokers bid
low, and kept on doing so, apparently
knowing that some of the stock had 10 be
sold Prices fell away gradually to 40 IS,
which was the closing price for the day.
On the next call the preferred stock fail
ed to get on the record. and the other
railway shares and bonds were neglected.
Some interest was manifested in Nor
genthaler when il was reached. and d few
trades were made around -5
The real fun began when Washington
Loan and Trust was reached. 'Gucie'
Henry Hurt started the bidding at III,
and the stock was thrown at him In ten
share lots by different brokers until ne
had a hundred on his list Efforts to force
the price up failed. and before the call
was passed thirty more had changed
hands. None Of the fireworks served 10
rattle Uncle" Henry in the least
Union Trust rights were again in active
demand. and some Of the stock was sold
