voice and an excellent knowledge of the
art OF dress. 1t was Familiarity said
that to see her come into room was
a lesson to any girl; and her acquaint-
ance with the. ms and outs of New
York society and fond pride in the dis
play OF it, put the dull lady beyond
criticism as a general conversationalist.
The two travellers were attended by
French maid, closely modelled in ex-
terror upon previous employers of rank
abroad, whose service she had relin-
qushed for the higher wage resulting
from her American decadence in social
standing. Her large wad of suspicious
ly golden hair, frizZed over the eye
brows, was a souvenir of Lady Reg
gie;" while the fiat waist, girdled low
upon the hips Of a portly person. was
her best tribute to the slim young
Princess Bartolozzi who had had her
two years in Rome. This composite
rendering Of great ladies did not rob
Mademoiselle Eulalie of the coarse
modelling of her features; but. on the
other hand. as Miss Blocker said, she
was safe from couriers, and her pack
ing was a dream.
When Helen went to the cabin de
luxe secured by her fathers secretary,
into which Miss Blcecker's room open
ed. she felt impatient with the girls
who followed her, exclaiming approx
ingly over it's comforts; with the maid
who. stood sentinel by her gold-ftted
dressing-case; with Miss Blocker, who,
in colloquy with uninterrupted stew
ardess, was already laying down the
lyw as to their requirements on the
voyage. She hurried out again, en-
compasscd by her friends, to gain the
upper deck, where the men of the visit
ing party, looking unanimously bored,
awaited anxiously the ringing of the
last gong that should drive them from
the ship. All had been said that could
be said on either side. Vague repeti-
lions had set in. Helen's eyes roved
eagerly over the crowds on the pier be-
low, over the congested gangway. She
was hoping to see her father, and
perhaps, but impro bably-one other

trine of her own; Mr.. Carstairs hav-
ing announced, with the insolent eccen-
tricity Of some men of his stripe, that
she should go dowerless to her hus-
band. hoping thus to protect her from
fortune-seekers, foreign and native. So
long as she remained unmarried under
his roof she was to enjoy great wealth
and the Importance it conters. Until
now Helen had not cared. Her brain
was clear. her head was cool, she had
tastes and occupations that filed every
hour, and plenty Of people who flocked
around her, paying court to the dispen-
ser OF liberal Inequalities.
Her love passage had ended in disas-
ter, but exactly what had passed be-
tween her and the unknown Glynn, no
one was sufficiently intimate with Helen
to ascertain
The marriage of her father with Mrs.
Coke had taken place in June, after
which Mr.. Carstairs had withdrawn his
apparent objections to Newport, and
blossomed out there as a villa resident
of supreme Importance. The months of
this but partially successful experiment
on the part Of the new Mrs. Carstairs
had been passed by Helen in suppressed
misery. She had gone into camp in the
Adlrondacks, had visited friends at
Dark Harbor and welcomed with thank
fulness the invitation to spend Septem-
Der with a young couple of her ac-
$quaintance who had house at LenoX,

room. with assorted dogs.

inspired by the lady who no longer
giggled in Helen's presence, but had
not lost her double chin, gave his recall

If she persisted in her rebellious de-
meanor towards her stepmother, the
more reprehensible because reserved,
she was at liberty to do one of two
things-viz., take furnished house in
town and engage Miss Blocker, or
somebody, to be her chaperon; or else
go where she liked, abroad
Choosing the latter alternative, Helen
had been considered fortunate in se-
curing for her companion the lady in
question, who was certified by her be-
levers to be rarely disengaged. Miss
Bleccker, in earlier days, had given
readings in New York drawing -rooms
and elsewhere about the country, until
the gradual fading away of audiences
had turned her thoughts into the pres
ent, more lucrative and less fatlgulng
channel of genteelest@oconpation

portation. Subject to first giving to
the government the power of SUPER
vision and control which l have adj
vccated above. the law should be
amended so that railroads may be per-
mitted and encouraged to make traf-
fic agreements when these are in the
interest of the general public. as we'll
as of the railroad corporations maxi
ing them. These agreements should,
of course. be made public in the Mi
nutest detail and should be subject to
securing the previous assent of the
interstate commerce commission.
The movement to regulate railways
by law has come to stay. The peo-
pie of this country have made up their
minds-and wisely made up their
minds-to exercise a closer control
over all kinds OF public service cor
porations. including railways. Every
honestly managed railway will gain
and not lose by the policy. The men
more anxious to manipulate stocks
than to make the management of
their roads efficient and honest are
the only ones who have cause tos OPP
pose it.
We who believe in steady and
healthy progress unalterably for the
new era of the widest publicity and
of fair dealing on the part of railroads
with stockholders, passengers and
shippers. We ask the consent of no
man in carrying out this policy but
We gladly welcome the aid of every
man in perfecting the law in it's de-
tails and in securing its enactment
and the faithful observance of it's
wise provisions. We seek nothing
revolutionary We ask for such laws
as in their essence now obtain in the
staid old commonwealth of Massachu-
sets; such laws as now obtain in Eng
land. The purpose of those of US
who SO resolutely believe in the new
policy. in its thorough carrying out
and in its progressive development, is
in no sense punitive or indicative.
We would be the first to protest
against any form of confiscation of
property, and whether we protested
or not, l may add that the supreme
court could be trusted in any event to
see that there should be nothing done
under the guise of regulating roads
to destroy property without just COM
pensation or without due process of
law. As a matter of course We shall
punish any criminal whom we can
convict under the law, but we have
no intention of confounding the limo
cent many and the guilty few by any
ill-judged and sweeping scheme OF
vengeance. Our aim is primarily to

In advancing such a physical valua-
ton as decisive on its side in q rate
controversy. Such a valuation would
necessarily help to protect the rail-
reads against the making of mad
equate and unjust rates and would
therefore be as important from the
standpoint OF the protection Of the
railroads as from the standpoint of
the protection OF the public, and, of
course. 1t is necessary to the endur-
Ing prosperity and development of the
country that the railroads shall yield
reasonable profits to investors. It Is
from one standpoint to know the orig
inal cost OF the building of the road
as to know what 1t would now cost to
reproduce it; from another standpoint
the human equation-that is, the man
agement OF the roads more impor-
tant by far than the physical valua-
ton, and the physical valuation OF the
road in one region may have entirely
different relation to the real value of
the road in another section, where the
conditions are utterly different. There
fore, the physical valuation can never
be more than one of the many ele-
ments to be considered. but it is one
element, and at times may be a very
important element. when taken in con-

management in the past
Such additional legislation as that
for which l have asked in the past.
and especially that for which l asked
in my message at the opening of the
last session OF congress, is not merely
in the interest of the public. but most
emphaically in the interest of every
honest railway manager and of all
investors or would-be investors in
railway securities. There must be
vested in the federal government a
full power of supervision and control
over the railways doing interstate
business; power in many respects
analogous to and as complete as that
the government exercises over the
power to exercise supervision over
the future issuance of stocks and
bonds, either through a national in
corporation (Which should prefer
Or in some similar fashion, such SUI
pervision OF include the frank public
ity of everything which would-be in
vestors and the public at large have
a right to know. The federal govern
ment will thus be able to prevent all
overcapitalization in the future; to
prevent any man hereafter from plum
dering others by loading railway
properties with obligations and pock-
citing the money instead of spending it
in improvements and in legitimate cor
porate purposes; and any man act
ing in such fashion should be held
to criminal accountability. 1t should
be declared contrary to public policy
henceforth to allow railroads to de-
vote their capital to anything but the
transportation business, certainly not
to the hazards of speculation. For
the very reason that we desire to
favor the honest railroad manager,
We should seek to discourage the ac-
tivities of the man whose only con-
Germ with railroads is to manipulate
their stocks. The business of rail-
road organization and management
should be kept entirely distinct from
investment or brokerage business,
especially of the speculative type, and
the credit and property of the corpo-
ration should be devoted to the ex-
tension and betterment of the country
naturally tributary to the Inns. These
principles are fundamental. Railroads
should not be prohibited from acquir-
ing connecting lines, by acquiring
stocks, bonds, or other securities of
such lines; but it is already we'll set
tied as contrary to public policy to
allow railroads to acquire control over
parallel and competing lines of trans
