New York, July 5.-Morrison I. Swift,
giving his occupation as an Author,
and claiming to como from Ohio, was
arrested here this week for placing a
placard on the. office door of J. P.
Morgan. He was brought before the
magistrate and fined the usual fec Of
SO and costs
The event might have passed un-
noticed had not the reading Of the
placard cast Mr.. Morgan into a state
of worry. Mr.. Morgan is q student
of history. He saw before him visions
OF the past. He was reminded Of some
! other time when eccentric writer's were
| filing the land with literature, and
which ultimately brought about the
French Revolution. Office employees
read the pamphlet and understood the
| down cast ways of their chief. The
pamphlet, while intemperate may be
Of interest to our readers. 1t is as
follows:
