There have ben great CT artists tha Mnonsieur billiard in production. but not in methods by which art can be made to serve a practical purpose; that is to say can be made to produce fortune. It Is the ife-work of Monsieur Dillard not to produce art but to bring the artis- tic skill Of the masters of art 10 his practical purposes And. in this de- partment, he has no superior in any country. The house in the Faubourg St. Germain was in fact a storeroom. It was, at the time of its destruction by fire. literally packed with master pieces--beautiful works of art Of an incredible value"
 She did not move the position of her body in the chair. But she again vaguely touched her lips with the handkerchief in her fingers a bit of filmy lace.
 Monsieur she said, there have been in the world three men who are supreme in what is perhaps the high

est of all artistic production shall name them to you: Monsieur Whist Ter, the American; Monsieur Helleu of Paris, and Wagenheim of Munich"
 She moved trifle in the chair. Then she went on.
 The misfortune of producing a masterpiece in oil or in water-color is that one copy only of this master piece exists, and if by any misfortune it is destroyed. every adequate evil dence of it's beauty has disappeared forever. This is the unfortunate feature attached to the work of all the great masters.
 But it is a misfortune that does not attend the etchings of Monsieur Whistler. Monsieur Helleu. and Herr Wagenhein. The beautiful face of the. lovely Americans preserved by the eschings of Monsieur Helleu can be reproduced in any number. That beauty does not depend upon the jeopardy of a single picture"
 Her voice seemed to advance, but not with the stimulus of any emotion.
 Tt is not commonly known she said, that an extreme skill Is re- auired to obtain in the prints all the beauties of these etchings. The prints

are commonly made by persons hay ing only the usual workman's skill.
 "Bnt 1t was always realized by the masters of this art that the extreme and delicate beauties Of their etch- ings could be produced only by an adequate skill, by skill almost equal to their own, in the printing of the picture This skill constitutes the peculiar genius of MQAsieur Dillard-- skill which he has striven to perfect, and which he has finally brought to the highest excellence
 He labored in the house in the Faubourg St. Germain for long time and with an incredible patience, until he became the superior of any man living. and the house, as l have said, was literally packed with the most beautiful and most valuable reproduc- tions of this character in the world. This accumulated treasure repre- sented the incredible fortune which was before Monsieur billiard and my self.
 It was on the night that he had gohe to Bordeaux in order to make some arrangement for the removal of the treasure that the unfortunate fire occurred that wiped out our fortune in an hour. leaving monsieur penni- less and myself with but the ruin Of another illusion. And 1t happened, monsieur, in the simplest fashion,
 There was absolute silence on the terrace before the villa. The vaguely, blue sea seemed to underlie a. world of amethyst. Heavy odors were in the air. A little beyond the terrace the leaves of Towering vine moved where the footmen of the Princess Kitzenzof searched as noiselessy as ghosts for the lost parrot The sha- dowy figures of the two footmen were outlined to the woman in the chair, and perhaps to Monsieur Jonauelle, but they were not visible to the

 Monsieur Jonquelle did not at once reply. He looked at his cigarette as though 1t were somehow unsatisfac- tDrV puffed it moment until the tip gioN then he tossed it over the edge of the terrace into the bushes.
 Almost immediately the bushes parted and two persons came up onto the terrace. They were footmen in . rather conspicuous foreign livery. They paid no attention to either Mon- aeur JonQuelle or the American. They addressed themselves with apolegetic diffidence to the woman in the chair.
 They explained that a parrot be- longing to the Princess Kitzenzof, who occupied the great villa above, had escaped and was concealed somewhere in the thick shrubbery of madame's garden. Would they he permitted to oearch for it The woman in the chair moved her head slowly in as cent Then she dismissed them with . gesture. They went down off the terrace and toward the rear of the villa In their search, and the woman 1n the chair addressed the American.

 The American replied in his abrupt manner:

 The woman had a bit of delicate lace in her fingers. She put it up moment to her lips. Then she spoke, addressing her two guests.

The Citizens Union pointed out that

at Dinner.

The Genoa conference failed be-
cause the United States was not a
participant and the forthcoming Hague
conference is bound to fail unless the
United States enters it, is the belief OF
DR.. John Grier Hibben. president OF
Princeton. The time has come for Amer
lea to take some part in European af-
fairs and the logical outcome of the
Washington armament conference Is the
appearance of the United States at some
conference In Europe, he said last night
10 more than 500 members of the Insur
ance Society of New York in the Ho-
tel Astor at their twenty-first annual
meeting.
DIR. Hibben said the confused and cha
otic forces at work throughout the
world to-day are working toward a
definite end--toward a something that is
inevitable unless there can be introduced
some new force-a something that will
make for better condition of healthful-
ness and confidence throughout the
world. He went on:
II know of only one force In sigh,
that can be able to bring that about
and that is the power of the United

Under NeU Operation.

Justice Cropsey in the Supreme Court.
Long Island City. yesterday sustained
the writ of habeas corpus and restored
to liberty Slaughter W. Huff and
Robert c. Lee. receivers for the old
Stenway trolley lines The decision
is a victory for the receivers over Dis
trict Attorney Dana Wallace and the
Transit Commission. which charged
misdemeanor in that the receivers had
put into operation the Steinway lines
without having complied with the terms
of section % OF the public se,vice law.
Justice Cropsey held that the case
does not fall under the provisions of
section 80 That section. he SAID, :
mittedly does not apply to cases in
which no rates of fare have been filed.
THE receivers do not seek to change
the rate of fare" he added. They
have authority only to operate the lines
covered by the mortgage. For them nc
rate was ever filed. The operation OF
the lines by them is. in effect. a new
