A NEW GUINEA ROMANCE.

Grimshaw. Published by Moffai, Yard
and Company, New York.
The author of this book is known to
the public from her former works,
FdU and Its Possibilities. and
New Guinea Those are her works
OF description and investigation. This
present book is novel; its scenes are
iald In New Guinea and the far eastern
islands OF that great archipelago. There
is supposed first citizen of Great
Britain, of tremendous strength, of
grim determination, and of reckless,
consclenceless audacity. This man mar
rles native woman, whom he, as
wanderer in that region, had found as
a child, deserted in the brush. and who
later berrays him, and he kills with
one blow of his fist the man who took
away the wife. So far the Brlton is
not much out of the way, but he has
the audacity later on to aspire to the
hand of the daughter of the Governor,
who Is attracted by his personality,
and in this he runs upon his peril
through an official who also seeks that
daughter. The story is very well
worked out, indeed, but there seems
an inconsistency between the state of
mind of the girl wife and her action
IN delaying so long to 60 to her hus-
band, who IN the meantime, deserted
and sending back to his wife a barbaric
message, serves his term Of imprison-
ment, and buries himself in an out of
the,way island. where he lives in terms
of intimate sayagery with a rudinlen-

idea of the unscrupulous, lawless life
that prevailed in New Guinea and the

costs and gross business, the wages
and earnings, the profits, the surpluses,
the securities, are all found set forth
here. In view of the recent investi-
cation by Congress. it might have been
supposed that a work of this kind
would give the origin of the steel
trust, reciting thhe concerns in
corporated to form trust, the amount
at which each was capitalized in the
merger, and so on. But this is all
avoided. and the book is confined to a
financial summary in various ingenious
forms of the actual workings of the
steel corporation. 1t is valuable in that
line. If it had also the preliminary
statement referred to, it would be an
invaluable work of reference.
