TWELVE PAGES A NINETEENTH CENTUBY CAREEB, The death of Mr. Jay Gould yesterday terminates a career which Is especially typical of the close of, .the century In American, finance. Mr. Gould haa. been at once The pioneer and the prototype of many of the now characteristic methods by -which corporate management ls.-per-verted to the aggrandizement of Individ ual fortunes. He first showed how such things could be done on the grand scale, and earned the practices to a pont w,hich few men have equaled, and none sar- I passed. In that Jigrit the financial career Just closed possesses an especial Interest to the student of social changes as influ enced by pecuniary conditions. The old and familiar classic proverb concerning the propriety of speakingiwell of the-dead can generally, but not always, be observed. Where the prominence cf characteristics that cannot be approved forbid obedience to the aphorism, it is well to speak what good can be spoken. With regard to Mr. Gould it is satisfactory to say that he was personally unassuming and democratic. At a time when it was the tendency in millionaire society'to put on airs of aristocracy and transplant the" customs,if not the scions, of .European no bility to this soil, Mr. Gould retained his personal democracy. The marriage of his favorite son with an estimable actress is the occasion for favorably contrasting this trait with tbe pretensions of many meiuof overgrown fortunes It Is worth remembering to Jay Gould's credit that the possession of excessive wealth did not produce on bis part the arrogation of su perior blood and aristocratic surroundings which is so frequently tbe case. When we pass from Mr. Gould's per sonal character to his relation with jmblic business and morals, it is impossible to re tain. that commendatory tone. It must be said .that Mr. Gould's influence on busi-ness.-and morals has been wholly bad. He ha&mot only demonstrated the scientific methods by which corporations can be managed to the detriment, of the public and tbe ordinary shareholders for the en richment of a few manipulators, but he he has demoralized the business conscience by exhibiting the illustration of the greatest wealth gained by the most un scrupulous disregard of financial honesty and public morals. It is just to say that the general objurgation which has followed Mr. uould's career is incorrect in making it appear that he was the only great offender of his class. There are plenty of 'others, some of whom were his colempo rarles, and some of whom were more or less successful imitators of his methods. Tho reputation of being the typical de visor and executor of methods of corpo- LTate mismanagement for private enriclf- ment cannor, even wriest aeatn nas inter vened, be denied on Mr. Gould's behalf. Yet it would be short-sighted to omit a recognition of the fact that Jay Gould was a product of the times. Under the condi tions existing such a character was sure to exist. Given a general feeling that the attainment of wealth is the greatest good so great that its successful pursuit con dones the methods by which it Is attained given a corporate system in which the investments are counted, by the thousands of millions and the commerce -which It influences is counted by tens ot thousands of millions; given a political system with so much of carelessness or Ignorance, or corruption that corporate powers can be perverted from the beneficial purposes for which they were created to the uses of private enrichment, and under 'such in fluences tbe rise of characters like Jay Gould is inevitable. In our own day this state of affairs has produced scores of the ,same class; and it will continue to do so as long as tbe social, corporate and political conditions furnish the motive for such careers. The public apathy with regard to the enforcement of the principles of law and morality in corporate manage ment is to be charged with the responsi bility for the evil in Mr. Gould's career. anu oiners ukc it. . Mr. Gould's death incidentally affords an indication of the way in which individ ual importance is overestimated. ' It was generally supposed that the death of the great manipulator and stock owneismtgbt have a disturbing effect on the slock "mar ket. The very weak foundation for such an apprehension was shown by the slight fluctuation and comparative steadiness of stocks yesterday. The fact is that the prosperity of the country stands upon too substantial a basis to be shaken by the death of any one man, however great his financial power may have been. AN OLD EXPECTATION BEVIVKD. The report that arrangements have quietly been made during tho past few weeks for securing terminal facilities which will admit the Wabash and Head ing railways to this city is one that, if con firmed, points to the realization of an old and long-delayed expectation. For many veaTS it has been renortp.d ntintprvals that these lines wefe seeking to reach Pitts- Durg. a natraiiways which were ambitious of extending their truffle' should aim at a connection with the lam-eat freirrht nrliri. nating point in the" land was so natural mat we nave never regarded sucirreports as wholly without foundation. ".But it must ha nrlmlttpri t.Kftt t. tin nmnnrhnn of. fulfillment following the reports hasup.to this time been exceedingly slight. Itis only to be hoped that the newest rumor may be followed-by earlier'andmorettna terial confirmation than Its predecessors. It is hardly necessary to say that tbe opening of a new through line. both to the. East and West would be aa extension et ..Wre . PiTTSBUBG Pitts'buTg's railway facilities and anin "creaso of the competitive influences here which would be vastly- beneficial to our Industries. If the .new lines are really "coming they should be met with material encouragement A POISONED WATEK SUPPLY. The epidemic of typhoid fever In St Loufs affords striking evidence of the necessity for a constant and zealous care of the purity of water supply. The in crease of typhoid to an epidemic form commenced about the middle of 'Novem ber. In October there wero 2(50 cases in the city; in the first week of November 88, in the second 97. But in the third week the number jumped to 245, and in tho week endine November 28 there were 930 cases, while the rapid increase goes on. The inspection of the, houses in which 1,300 cases have occurred shows that .'tho plumbing is generally in good order. In those parts of the city where the water mains do not extend the disease has not appeared, while it rages most fiercely where the dependence on city water is most exclusive. Investigation of the water supply shows that the favorite vice of locating the influent pipes just below a sewer which drains a lot of bone-burning and rendering factories has been practiced there. In addition it seems that typhoid has been prevalent in the suburban towns above the city; and the recent rains which stirred up tho streams preceded the marked increase in the fever. The con clusion is clear that the rains brought down the germs of the disease, airel as they found breeding ground in the filth discharged into the river by tbe sewers, the water works performed the function of distributing tho poison. . Pittsburg has so far presented a credita ble exemption from this class of scourge. While towns in the vicinity are reported to be SjUffenng from zymotic disease our city-has shown a marked exemption, duo doubtless to its good drainage and the high sanitary condition brought--about by the-precautions against cholera. But the fact'that such "diseases hava existed in towns up toe rivers should 'stimulate care lest the experience of St. Louis be re peated here. Poasibty the only precau tions possible will be of the kind that are taken after the harm is done; but the first outbreak of these diseases should prompt unfversal precautions for rendering the water supp'Iy innocuous. Science should advance the day when it will be clearly recognized that to spread an 'epidemic by means of the water sup ply is a species of criminal negligence amounting to wholesale manslaughter. BY-PEAY AT CITY HAIX. The latest move in the suppression of disorderly houses is an order by Chief Brown permitting the inmates to remain until the Mayor formally sets a day for their expulsion. This "looks like an at tempt to put Mayor Gourley in a difficult position. It seems intended to place upon him the responsibility if the houses are to continue, or else cf defining how and when they are to be closed. As many of the inmates have left the city, and those who remain will hardly care to take the uncertain chances of the future policy at City Hall, the counter manding of the order of expulsion may not perhaps renew the business. But it is utterly discreditable that action or inac tion should dependuponveitherpolitical or personal antagonisms among city officials. The Department of Safety has left itself much more" open to censure than the Mayor. If thd Department felt the anx-iety'lt-proiessed to carry out the Mayor's order of suppression there was not the slightest requirement that it should turn all the inmates into the streets at a few hours' notice. There wero methods of legal and orderly procedure which might more decorously have been adopted than the sudden and arbitrary action which looked .as if intended more to create a feeling against the Mayor's order than to give that order effect. The question is now put back to where It was a few days ago. Henceforward it snouia ue ireaieu. wiui inure siucexity anu with less regard for tbe personal politics of City Hall. A DEMOCRATIC SUGGESTION. The Louisiana Sugar Planters' Associa tion is gracefully prepared to sacrifice it self on the altar of patriotism. It also affords an indication of what amount of outcome there will.be from the Demo cratic declamations about the enormity of the sugar bounty. "In order not to embarrass the Democratic party by asking for protection," the sugar planters assert, "they will simply tender sugar as a good article to tax to raise necessary revenue, and" they are willing to accept as low a duty as one and one-half cents a pound rather than continue the bounty of two cents." It would ba interesting to specify whether this duty is to cover all sugar produced or is simply to apply to the higher grades on wuich he two cent bounty is given. But that makes no differ ence as to the nature of the proposition to convert the Democratic talk about sweep ing away the bounty altogether into a mild reduction of 25 per cent at the most. It makes no difference to the domestic producer whether his production comes in the form of a bounty or is given by a tariff duty. In either event the bounty is the same where the great bulk of the supply is imported, as In tho case of sugar. The difference to the public at large is that when revenue is needed tbe excess paid by the people in the form of duty goes into the public treasury. But when 'the revenue is not needed it is to the"publlc interest to repeal tbe duty, and if protection is needed to give it in tbe form of bounty. The entire agitation for tariff reform was started by President Cleveland on the necessity for a reduction of rovenups. The -Republican policy accepted that Idea and reduced tbe taxation on an article of universal necessity, by over $50,000,000 an nually, compensating the Democratic sugar interest by the bounty. Now It seems the Democratic position is to be changed, and more revenue is wanted, for which the sugar duties are to be restored, with tho result of renewing the protection to Louisiana planters. That this wipes out the, plea on which the tariff agitation was started affords no difficulty in view of the overwhelming Democratic majority in f the House. It is also instructive to note hoW unerringly the Democrats of Louisi ana come to the conclusion that the rev enue tariff that Democracy wants is a tariff that will give them as large a margin of protection as they had under the tariff Of 1883: Twestt-years ago a public building commission-was createdin Philadelphia to take entire charge- of erecting tbe city ball. The building was to be finished in a few years at a cost of t$,000,000. Now the'cofiimlsslon is asklng.for $2,000,000 more, after already sink ing 1S,OQO,000 In the undertaking.

DT DISPATCH, SATTtJEDAT Councils at last, but why has it been so long delayed even In slow-moving PliiladclphlaT It Is puerile to blame men who manage city governments for private purposes. Tbey simply auccumb to the temptations and make uaoof the opportunities thrown iii their way. The blame for the fact that American municipal government has become a by word andhutt far the scoffln? of nations at taches to tbe voters who permit tnemselves to be -robbed, overridden and misruled when tho remedy is in tbeir ower. Yestekday's riots in Madrid were oui Inons in tbe capital of a country so poorly governed and so badly disorganized as Spain. In all but anarchy Spain belongs to an era a century or two behind the rest of Europe, llut in social unrest the wretched country more than holds its own in tbe ad vance of modern Ideas. The women who have in.charge the ar rangement of the bnlldlng in which chil dren ore to Do cared for, instructed and en talned at the World's fair while their guardians inspect its treasures, are wise in making its scopo wide enough to be of more than temporary benefit to those who make use or it. Method is to prevail, and many a parent should be ablo to take home from Chicago some idea of scSontltlo systems for the bringing up of infants likely to prove invaluable on their return. Tho Kinder garten and Sloyd systems cannot bo too widely known or too extensively practiced for the futnro welfaro of this country. And in this building there will be an opportunity for ocular demonstration of the advantages of such things that will come as a revetation to tho many who would never even hear of them cUowheie. While there Is life there is hope. And there is still a clianco that something prac tical and practicable may result from the monetary conference. A paliatlve is no bet tor than a postponement that generally az gravates a disease in tbe end. A euro for the ills of tho currency is what is needed and it can be more easily obtained now than later. As at present mismanaged in Pittsburg, tho lapid transit transrer system is one ot those things that are pleasanter in theory than practice. The long waits between curs, however, provide many a work-worn man with unexpected and highly prized oppor tunities lor lepose or strengthening his vo cabulary, or both, according to his tempera ment and the importance of his engage ments. On such occasions ns these the phil osopher will console himself by remember ing the fdvantages and overlooking the shortcomings of modern olvillzation. But then there are so few philosophers, and so many unreasoning idealists. Pennsylvania makes more cigars than any other State. And Pittsburg makes more smoke than most other cities. But the priv ilege of smoking the cigars has to be paid for, while citizens choose to consume the smoke for nothing, when they might free themselves ot it at a profit. Natural gas has so often exhibited an inclination to bo absent when most needed that consumers have begun to' expect a shortago of fuel whenever tho thermometer takes a tumble-- But the back of the over burdened householder Is almost broken now that the electric lights huvo begun tho habit of going out for want of current at or about the usual dinner hour. So long as bills are paid and dividends declared, howover, any Incidental littlo inconvenience to the pur chasing public is a matter of minor or rather minus consideration to tbe Selling corporations. Drawing lots has been instituted as a method of deciding an election tie in Kansas. On the whole that plan is an Improvement on the'eounting ont system too prevalent in close contests by all parties. As the Panama investigation proceeds tho extent of the corruption to which tbe scheme gave rise becomes more and more evident. Tho bribed Doputles, tbe sub sidized papers, and the religious advisers wbo are responsible for the loss of the hard earned savings of thousands are a disgrace to their country and should be rigorously prosecuted for their criminality. The greater the position of trust of auian before the public, the more severe should be the punishment meted out'for a wilful disregard of duty and a deliberate practice of dis honesty. Artificial rain-making is about as suc cessful as comet-chasing. There are easier ways of wasting time, money and enthusi asm than either of these. General Bain-maker Dyrenfttrth is n man not easily satisfied. With a large corps of assistants he has discharged tons of explosives, sent np a few score of balloons and expended thousands of dollars in Texas without producing rainfall. Yet he com plains that the test was not thorough, but that it was a scientific success so far as it went. The general public will not agree with the General, but rather urge him and his financial backers to make tho best of a bad Job and ceasa from going further lest they fare worse. When it comes to paying the debt ot nature the pauper is on a par wth the mil lionaire. And still people generally -prefer to be millionaires In the meantime. At a meeting of more than a thousand voters in an Ontario town last night an overwhelming majority wore in favor of the union of tbe Dominion with thl3 country. Tho desire for annexation In Canada Is mak ing such headway that its practical consid eration cannot be long postponed. Any at tempt to suppress the feeling will only be pouring oil on tho flumes of its enthusiasm. PROMINENT AND POPULAR. Justice Field has been a member of tho Supremo Conrt for abont 30 years. .

A LOOK AROUND. Some lady who is interested in plants has taken the trouble to send me some splendid brunches of ivy. with a message to the effect that it is a sample of wnat Pitts burgh can do with that plant. I am do lighteS to seo that it thrives so well hero, and follow up what I have already written with a suggestion a borrowed one, to bo sure, bnt nevertheless worth considering. .If you have a long stretch of fencing and wish to beautify yonr place try a "chain and ivy" effect. On the summit of a brick wall, low and broad, place Iron pests about three feet high and ten foct apart, connect the posts with a good sized chain, which hangs in a graceful curve. Plait ivy at the base of the posts and train It along tho chains and npon the top of tho brickwork. By keoping this trimmer yon havo a beau tiful succession of green uprights and Curves abovo a broad green base. In a few years the ivy .will cover all that ynu desire of your wall and will be as effective in win tor as In summer. Stiff iron or paling fencesaro such an abomination that any change from theso traditional eyesores will be most welcome. "This is a hard town to do much in the way of amateur theatricals in, even with the Tuesday Night Club," remarked a well known member of that admirable and papu lar organization. "Pittsburg men seem to be different from thoso of other large cities where similar societies and clubs exist. Take the leading aruatcur club of tbe coun trythe Amaranth of Brooklyn, for ex ample. There they havo men who hae well recognized lines, heavy men, light comedies, walking gentlemen and all the other classifications Into which actors are divided. These men are willing to act nt any time, and aro Jealous or their parts and will squabble at a moment's notice if thoy think tbeybave been slighted and a better part given to somebody el3e. They are so ciety men, men of all sorts of professions nnd occupations, Just as they are boro, but they are willing to take a big part even if it does on tall a lot of study and considerable prominence. Onr men in Pittsburg do not seem to take kindly to a good p irt. Tho best of them usually act under protest. It is not that thoy do not want to do the work so much as an apparent dislike to making themselves prominent, and I cannot lor tho life of me seo why it Is. Instond of feeling hurt if tho best parts aro given to others, they aro delighted, and tbe less they have to do the better tbey are pleased. It Is somewhat the same with tbe ladles, but not to the same extent. As a social affiir the club is a great success, and there are always a large number of applicants on tho list for memberships." "Except in the big fields where there is gas enough to make tbe wells flow, it costs more on the averago to produce a barrel of oil than it sells for," grumbled a leading operator yestet day. "Tbe result is that tho producing interests are going more nnd more into the bands of largo and wealthy corporations and combinations. The small operator who ha any money to spare Is a thing of tho past. All through the country towns where the small fallows have to raise money they havo to pay the banks or the capitalists from 8 to 10 per cent interest and that tells the story in a few words." "Jay Gould and Henry M. Hoyt have died within a few hours of each other," said a Republican who Is an old hand at shaping State affairs last night. "I sunposo you do not understand what 1 mean wheh 1 couple the names of these two men. Well, Hoyt was Governor when Gould tried to run Pennsylvania politics some on his own hook and he had a hand in doing the little Wizard np, I don't intend to go into dates or names, bnt the ontllne or the story is this: Gould wanted John Sherman to be President on a certain occasion and he took a look into Pennsylvania to see what could be done. He got a party or wire-pullers to gether who led him to believe that they could secretly secure the nomination of men who would favor Sherman as national delegates In fact thoy went so far as to make him think ,they , could, steal a majority of the delegation from this Stato without the knowledge of Slmon'or Don Cameron who' were at the nead of things at that time and who did not then favor Sherman. To accomplish this Gould agreed to pay the expenses and give a handsome,sum beside not in a direct way but in a safe 'indirect manner. Tho propo sition was that he would at a cortaln time inform these men of the rise of certain stocks and tho fall of others on the New York Exchange. The clique was to buy heavily or sell as might bo indicated by Gould and leap a handsome profit. This was carried out. Twice there came word from Gould ns to the course to pursue and twice the gang made huge profits within a few days. Things wero then arranged for a grand final coup which was to result In gigantic profits. In some way Hoyt heard of what was going on. He'notifled Cameron, whoi with promptness and skill, proceeded to undermine all the work that had been done and to prevent the election of a single delegate not In harmony with the Cameron machine. Just about this time a qnlet U.ttle fellow with a famous name and a most ex tended political experience drifted over lrom New York to Philadelphia to take a glimpse at things for Gould and to see how far tho bargain bad been carried out and whethor the goods were really to be de livered on call. lie went here nnd there tin oughout the State and soon dlcovei ed the counterplotting of Cameron, his knowledge of the donl with Gould and the collapse of the Sherman movement. It was a day or two before tho last big stock deal was to come off. Gonld made no sign to anyone ex cept the qnlet littlo chap who went to New York in n hurry in reiponse to n summons. The speculative crowd had raised a large pool, made up of previous winnings and all they could borrow. They lolloned the cue given by Gould in perfect faith, al though they knew by that time they would not be rble to elect a delegate. Tho market wont exactly the way Gould said it would not, and went with a whirl. All the profits and tho borrowed cash went, and so did a heavy tarn belonging to the State Tieasury. Thus Gould was rcvengod without anyone being able to show him up. One of the men hunted for tho Wizard with a revolver for ten days, but found Gonld was out of season and town and could not bo bagged. Tbe queer part of It all was that the man who lost most money in tho play did hot know of the deal for delegates, but was true to Cam eron, and even helped him to knock out bis own fellow speculators, not knowing they bad a dicker on Tlth tbe Wall street manipulator."
