he is unceremoniously bundled of to

Morgan's Fine Art Gallery.
Meanwhile Morgan. ST.. is spending
his days In his beautiful library and
art gallery on East Thirty-sixth street
that is connected with his brownstonc
residence at the corner of Madison
avenue. AS has been said, his con-

partners come from time to time to
consult with him, but in the main he
is left to spend his days as he pleases.

There are years of this work ahead
Of him. for his varied collections ar.
SO large that 1t is only with these
leisurely days that he can really be
said to have an opportunity to become
thoroughly acquainted with them.
Morgan has been called a close man
having given gold piece TO news
boy in mistake for quarter and send
ing policeman back to recover the
yellow coin. But there is no doubt
that Morgan has given great sums to
charity and that all his gifts have not
been heralded abroad as have thost OF
other millionaires. AS for art, HIS
hobby for picking un masterpieces In
every quarter OF the world Is too well
known to need repeating. The library
building itself is proof of his prodi.
gality. Two years were required to
build the library. Its cost was placed
at 100000. In 1t are gathered many
of the choicest art objects and books
on which the finacier has spent at
least $1O,000,000 during the last 20
years.

But there seems to be nothing i'm,
mediately alarming in Mr.. Morgan's
condition. He is merely an old man.
and Is retiring from the multifarlous
duties Of his position as Americas
greatest flnancier. As he has with
