ton with the insurance revelations. He
is the hero of the impecunious horde
of long-haired youths of the boulevards.
Hyde participates fully in the free and
easy life of the Latin quarter At the
last artists ball. Hyde made a big hit
impersonating an Arabian gypsy.
Recently Hyde has shown a tendency
to re-enter aristocratic French society,
and among the fashionables of Paris
his princely wine cellar is exciting won
der and admiration.
Richard A. McCurdy's existence in
Paris has been quite the opposite Of
Hyde's, though it is we'll intended to
blot from the memory of the former
Mutual president the disagreeable ex-
periences of year and a nalf ago.
McCurdy's life in Paris has amounted
almost to monastlc retirement. He is
surrounded by an exclusive circle of
personal friends, and he is devoting
himself to simple diversions which car
ry with them no distasteful memories.
He Is never seen in the gay centers of
Paris, and he is entirely unknown in
society. He reads no newspapers.
When an effort was made to interview
him he sent word that he would feel
keenly any further notoriety in connec-
ton with the insurance scandal At
this time it is learned from a personal
friend Of McCurdy's that, while he is
attempting in every possible way to
eradicate memories of the scandal
which enmeshed him, he finds 1t diff
cult to have any complete comfort in
his life.
James w. Alexander, ousted presi-
dent of the Equitable Life, who was a
third prominent figure in the insur.
ance scandals, Is on a trip around the
world with party Of friends.

The spectres are summed up as fol- lows: Activity at Washington and presidential speeches against corpora tions cuts in the price of copper and iron and steel, lower industrial divi- dends, higher money as the crops be- gin to move, smaller crops as early frost affects them, a traction muddle and a scandal, poor investment de- mand, an unfriendly attitude of Eu- rope toward our securities, over-ex- tension in commercial circles, the ap proach of presidential campaign and the inflated condition of labor and commodities have again been rehears- led as elements in a situation that is proclaimed as unsound.
