, ;rIna the Great Panic Of 1898 He
You'd Have Been Utterly Ruined
{ II cIes J House Certificates
q Ha, lot Been Issued.

z One Sunday afternoon in the mid
die of the summer Of 1893. the late
Frederick D. Tappan. then president
of the Gallatin National bank Of New
York city, and chairman Of the New
York Clearing House association. re-
ceived at his country place In the
Berkshire Hills. where he was spend
ing the weekend, a telegram from
some OF the prominent New York
bankers associated with the clearing
house urging him to come to New
York with all possible haste.
The great panic which marked the
first year of President Cleveland's
second administration was then at It's
height. The treasury of the United
States was being drained Of gold by
the operation of the so-called endless
chain. Money had sought cover. and
borrowers were unable to get accom-.
mediation even when they had gilt
edged collateral to put up as security
Everywhere there was mad passion
to convert property into gold and
hoard It, Men with obligations to
meet In cash were in extremities, and
1t had finally come to be believed that
only the issuance Of clearing house
certificates could relieve the strain
and prevent an appalling financial
crash The situation had become
strained to the breaking point when
that message was sent to Mr.. Tappan,
and he took the late afternoon train
Cor New York.

with butter melted in very little

beaten. In order to get this into the
liver make an incision with narrow

the aperture where the blade en-
tered, move the point dexterously to

Stuff this full OF the force meat, sew

How Joseph e. sheffieId's Sale OF
Stock Affected the Future Of the
New Haven and the Boston q
Albany Lines.

When the late William Bliss be-
came. In 1880. president of the Boston
& Albany railroad. then the biggest
transportation line in New England.
he went to work very quietly but very
theoretically to obtain for that rail-
road a through line from Boston to
New York, and make 1t competitor OF
the New York. New Haven Hart
ford for through business between
New York and Boston. on which the
New Haven line. then Just beginning
to come into the field as great ma
uonal system. had monopoly. with
that end in view he made plans to get
control OF the Canal" railroad.
The Canal railroad was the crea-
ton Of the late Joseph E. Sheffield.
the founder of the Sheffield Scientific
school. one of the leading departments
of Yale university. The road-ofhcial'
ly, the New Haven & Northampton

posed to think that the secretary had
been unduly dictatorial in his attitude
toward them.
When thR second sale Of $4,000. 900
Of bonds w31 authorized. the effect Of
the previous negotiations was discern
able. Many OF the bankers showed q
lack of interest. 1t seemed likely that
they would ignore the secretary when
he came to seek their participation in
taking up the new issue.
It seemed very likely to one man in
particular. and that man was John A.
Stewart. the president of the United
States Trust company. The more ho
thought about 1t. the less he liked It

Crisis For Two Great Railroads

railroad-owed the name by which 1t
was popularity known to the fact that
1t followed the line of the old New
Haven and Northampton (Mass.) ca
nal. OF itself Of minor importance.
the Canal railroad became of great
strategic value as link in the project
ed Boston G Albany through line to
New York. Connecting with the Bos-
would serve to extend the Boston &
Albany to New Haven. Thus. the COM
pletion OF through line to New York
from Boston would involve the con-
struction of only about 10 miles of
new railroad. paralleling the New
Haven road between New Haven and
New York.
In the latter part of 1880 and the
early months Of 1881 purchases OF
New Haven & Northampton stock
were made In the open market for the
Boston & Albany interests. The stock
was the selling at from about so to 80.
A few years previously 1t had sold as
low as 49, The road had not been
paying dividends regularly. but only
little before this dividend OF four per
cent. had been declared
There were some vague rumors
about these purchases. but they caused
the directors of the New Haven no
alarm. 1t is understood that para
graph which appeared about March.
1891. in paper published In Spring
field. Mass, President Bliss's home.
first aroused the New Haven peoples
suspicious. The writer of the para
graph appeared to have inside infor-
nation. and the directors Of the New
Haven by some cautious inquiries
quickly convinced themselves as to
what Boston 6 Albany interests had
in view.
The discovery gave. them big
fright. For years they had been
haunted by the bugaboo of parallel
railroad between New Haven and New
York. and here 1t was about to be
materialized as part Of new
through line from New York to Bos-
ton.
There were some hurried consulta-
lions. and then some of the New
Haven directors went to see Mr. Shelf
field Mr. Sheffield. who was then a
man Of advanced age, owned about
one-half of the $2.460.OO0 OF the capt.
tai stock Of the New Haven G North
ampton railroad.
"Will you sell your Canal railroad
stock?" his callers asked.
Yes. as my figure"
What is that?"
Par value, one hundred dollars a
share"
VERY we'll. We will buy It now"
A few days later. to the great as
constituent of President Bliss and the
Boston & Albany interests. which had
been dickering with Mr.. Sheffield for
his holding. the stockholders Of the
Canal railroad elected a new board OF
directors. a majority of whom were
identified with the New Haven sys.
tenn: and the majority OF the stock
was voted by capitalist who. as
trustee for the New Haven. had bought
from Mr.. Sheffield. at the latter's own
terms, controlling interest in the
Canal road at cost of s1229,s0O.
This was the turning point In the
history of these two roads. Today the
New Haven practically controls all
New England transportation. while the
Boston & Albany has lapsed into the
condition OF leased railroad. and is
now Indirectly part of the general New
Haven railroad family.

John A. Stewart Came to the Rescue
When New York Bankers Hesltat.

Cleveland Administrator.

The late John q. Carlisle. as secrs-
tary Of tie treasury during President
Cleveland's second administration. was
several times more or less at odds
With the New York bankers. That his

theirs. 1t was the inevitable result

one point of view and they from anoth.

Mr.. Carlisle's task was trying far be-

the treasury department He had
been at the head Of the department

result of a reaction from period of
overexpansion and the steady with

serve meant that the government
would lapse to a silver basis. That
was narrowly averted in 1895 by the
formation Of the Morgan-Belmont syn
dictate, which sold to the government
the gold 1t needed, and guaranteed to
stop the expectation of the yellow met

Before that syndicate was organized.
however, the government borrowed on
two occasions $5O.OOO.000 for the pur-
pose of replenishing the gold reserve.
The secretary OF the treasury had to
negotiate the sale of the bonds for the
gold in Wall street He had very de-
cided views as to what the bankers
ought to do in connection with the
loans. and he made those views plain.
With him 1t was question OF helping
