{. H. HARTMAN DEAD
At HIS HOME IN ARDEN

Daily for long hours he grappled with
the biggest railroad problems and
struggled on, never tired, never dis
couraged until the human machinery
could stand the strain no more"
Regarding the plans of the Harri-
man interests, Mr. Harahan would say
nothing. He will attend the funeral.
R. L. Garry, Mr.. Harriman's son-in-
law, said last night, when questioned:
The cause of Mr.. Harriman's death
probably will never be known
Commanding Figure on Wall Street.
New York, Sept 10.-From early
manhood the commanding figure in
Wall Street activity, Hartman in 1897
gained a foolhold which raised him to
a place among half dozen financial
giants OF the age. Union Pacific was
the despair of many moneyed inter.
ests whose brains and capital failed
TO make the road pay. Hartman,
backed by Kuhn, Loeb and Company.
Standard Oil interests, secured a con
trolling interest, reorganized the man
agement, and through transcendent
genius converted the bankrupt com
pany into one of the best dividend
payers. In this and later his South
ern Pacific operations, Mr. Harriman's
policy was lavish expenditure, which
made the properties as nearly perfect
as possible. This policy continued on
all the Hartman lines.
Harriman's most spectacular per
Torrance was when he struggled with
the MOrgan-Hill Interests for the con-
troll Of Northern Pacific. In May 1901
a Northern Pacific corner resulted in
the stock going to $1,000. At a ''show-
down." Mr.. Hartman produced S7&G
100000 stocf out Of total of $685.
600, 600. However, the Hill-MOrgan
people held the whip hand through
by the law permitting the retirement
of the preferred stock. OF his hold
ings, $41,OOO,00O was preferred stock,
but Hartman secured a compromise
and he and some of his associates
were elected direc1 OTs of the Northern
Pacific.
Hartman began TaIITOadlng IN 1888
when he was elected director Of the
Illinois Central. He was then worth
a million. He established relations
with James Stillman and Jacob Schiff
and his influence in Wall Street eX-
banded. In 1894 he attempted to re-
the Erie, and had a fight with
the Morgan interests, in which he was
soundly whipped. Undaunted he
equipped himself for the successful
of Union Pacific.
In 1870 at the age of %, Hartman
bought a seat in the exchange and
sd therefor $4,000 made in specu-
Iation. He was devoid of sentiment
in business, as was shown when Nc
ousted President Fish of the Illinois
Central, who had probably done as
much to help Hartman as any man
living and who years before had made
him vice-president.
Mr.. Harrimans wife is the daughter
Of w. j. Averill; a Rochester banker.
Three girls and two Toys were born. !
The eldest is the wife of Robert l..
Gerry.

Between the region occupied of old by
the Aztecs and the realm far to the
south over which the Incas ruled lies an
immense stretch of territory, thousand
miles long and eight hundred wide. where
the remains of unknown and wonderful
civilizations are being discovered. This
region extends from the northern bound
aries Of Peru to the southern limits of
Costa Rica. In one section alone along
the coast of Ecuador six entirely I'M
known civilizations were recently brought
to light by Prof. Marshall H. Savilie.
and a vast collection Of relics has been
brought to New York. This collection is
to be the nucleus of a great American
museum. which will represent the history
of ancient peoples who attained an eX-
traordnarily high degree of civilization,
yet whose very existence has been hither-
to lost In antiquity.
The famed marble chairs OF Rome at
its zenith were not more symmetrical or
beautifully carved than those of one of
these unknown civilizations. No pottery
OF any other ancient race was more deli
cately patterned than that found in vast
quantities. as numerous almost as peb-

Piles dwelt Their cloth was of truly
marvellous weave; In beauty of design,

IIOm the OTCie MdSdZlHe
The perspective Of life shows some
strange transformations in values. 1t
reveals that the only great things In life
are trifes, that what panied us most,
saddened our hearts and made pillows
wet with tears were only trifies cumulat-
ing into Overwhelming Importance. A
cruel word. an unkindness, little mis-
understanding may darken day and
separate US from one we love or may
petrify us into a mood of doubt and
despair. The most joyous moments of
life, the high lights in the pictures of
memory, may, too, be only trifies Of kind
ness, fine expressions of love, simple
tributes of confidence and trust that make
the very heart smile as we remember.
Nature is constantly giving us these
turns in the road to see living In true
perspective. supreme sorrow. an
agonizing sense Of loss, the high-tide of
failure that carries our dearest hopes
out to sea, a long period of illness and
suffering, storm of disaster when the
ship Of our work Of years sinks in a
moment in a dark night of despair, the
death Of one who is dearest and nearest
may prove-a turn in the road. Then
may come one Of those rare moments
Of life, Of fine spiritual discernment, OF
luminous revelation. Of coming to ones
highest self, when the sordd, the mean.
the temporary, the selfish. are stripped in
an instant Of their garish shams and
tinsel Then the real, the true, the
eternal stand out in their majesty
bathed in the splendor and glow of the
revealing of truth. In such a spirit the
Infinite fills us. we seem born again to
new, better and greater things, for we
have seen the vision-at the turn of the
