The Orators of the Tlarer.
Two years ago John W. Keller, a
ponderous and brawny newspaper
man, was useful to
the tiger. The pay
he got was a now
forgotten nomina
tion as vice pres
ident of the Unit

City. That seemed

politically; or,
rather, he dropped

tt the very few offices, by the way,

of the braves, promptly went Into busl

Strange that the orators, must al'
be borrowed; they do not develop.
Strange that the orator must be Im
ported; Tammany does not develop
Hem. Keller Is from Kentucky, Cock
ran was straight from the old sod. A
dashing young man, Gordon, of Geor
gia, was hailed a year ago as the com
ing man, but his hopes have beer
burled In an Inebriate asylum. Now
ithey talk of "Charlie" Towne. of Min
nesota, the famous orator of the Bryan
campaign, as the successor of Cork
ran. Towne Is a good example of tht
tendency of able men from all parti
of the country to seek New York. IU
is on Wall street and is reported tc
have become rich by organizing Texan
oil syndicates.
There are big orators on the demo
cratic side, of course; but not foi
Tammany. John G. Carlisle Is toe
old, too dignified, too successful. Ed-,
ward M. Shepard, the Tammany can
didate for mayor in 1901, la one of tht
finest masters of logical reasoning the
country has produced. He Is a famcmt
lawyer, a master pleader, Intellectual,
earnest, a fit successor of Tilden as i
leader of the thoughtful type. But b
Is not fat enough to please Tammany
and he has no wish to do so, being
quite as strong In the Intrenchment
of his own mind as Mr. Cockran him
self.
The Drear of the Vanderbllt.
The way In which Uncle John Rock
efeller got after the Vanderbilts in
selling the shares
of the New York
Central causes
some people with
-memories to shake
their heads and
say: "What if the
old commo d o r e
were alive!" There
are men who still
remember how,
when the legisla
ture, years ago,
refused to pass a
terminal bill for
the commod ore,
the members plied Into a special train
for New York and assisted the local
bears In "selling short" more shares of
Central than were In the market. The
commodore finally "let them out" at
a price many points higher than Cen
tral was when the bears of the year
1903 got through with It the other
day.
The fact Is that there Is no "Mr.
Vanderbllt" to-day; no leader and
head of the family and manager of
Its properties. William K. comes near
est to filling the bill; but he, like his
son and his nephews, Is more fond of
sport than of work. Of the young
Vanderbilts, one Is acting as the ama
teur coachman of a Hudson river run;
another is skinning the salient points
of his anatomy by flying tumbles from
automobiles, another trying to get
along without Canfleld's gaming house.
Cornelius shows ability and Industry,
but by the folly of his father In cut
ting him off with a small share of the
family fortune he is precluded from
possessing financial weight, while his
tastes run rather to engineering prob
lems. Alfred, the nominal head of
the house, is merely a nice young
man. The Vanderbllt connection is
the greatest single investing family in
the country, but there is no "Mr. Van
derbllt," and the Central misses one.
There Is a Gould; George Gould grows
each year a more prominent figure in
American finance; with the backing of
the Standard Oil men he Is to-day an Im
posing power in finance.
Nor has that power been decreased by
the way In which the Standard Oilers,
unvexed by having any pet new trusts
to "protect," have been gathering In
stocks during the recent slumps. They
are already in control in some lines, in
others they are dangerously near con
trolling. Though Mr. Rockefeller him
self la a director In few companies, his
Influence is great through other directors
who represent him, and that influence
Is greater now by a very large difference
than it was at this time last year.
After the Battla It Over,
K Chip o' th' Old Block.
A Remarkable Transformation.
More like Gould than any Vanderbllt
Is young Mr. Clarence Mackay, the new
president of the
Postal' Telegraph
company.
Mr. Mackay Is 20;
up to the time of
bis father's death
a year ago he was
merely a popular
young man in so
clety and the own
er of the finest
country house in
America. There
were those who
called him and Mrs.
Mackay extrava
gant "for people who haven't come into
the money yet, don't you know."
However, when his father died, Mr.
Mackay sold every race horse he had
and went to work. The prompt opening
of the new cable line to the Orient, which
makes his company one of the great
systems which Asia as well as America
must reckon with, rather opened people's
eyes. Mr. Mackay shows a clever appre
ciation of the value of advertising. The
way in which the cable was opened by
sending a message around the world was
truly Yankee, while the generous man
