The leading motif of the average American is to get as much money as possible in the short- est conceivable time; then to spend it—often “not wisely, but too well;” and one of the most agreeable and, it may be added, rapid methods of getting rid of accumulated ducats is travel- ing. It may also be one of the wisest and most benedcial uses of money, but that depends on the person. ‘THE TRAVELED Foot.

Itis the other and more numerous class, the showy, loud, self-asserting yet good- natured sort that attract attention—the women who wear diamondson a journey, firt with their couriers and talk incessantly of where they have been and where they are going, the men who joke with the waiters, fling handfuls of money on the tables, shout execrable English at foreigners in the expectation of their mak- ing themselves better understood, and who not only are not ashamed of their ignorance of art and history and languages, but seem to regard spread of all the discreditable views concern- ing us is the belief that no American speaks Englich as well as any Englishman.

RAINSFORD Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. New Yonr, June 4, 1891. ‘The suspension of the great house of Russell & Co. of New York and China almost marke an epoch. For two generations this house has represented the best financial judgment and akill of the “foreign devil.” The house is as- sociated with the career of the late A. A. Low, father of Seth Low, one of the great historic merchants of America, and it has always had behind it very shrewd and strong men. Butthe fact is that the Chinese are too smart for even the smartest foreigner. For the time being, while foreign business principles were as yet not understood by the “Heathen Chines,” for- eigners could do business profitably in their domains, but the Chinese have been very apt students in banking by foreign methods, and when thefr lesson was learned the foreigners no chance whatever. ‘The recent embarrassments of the Hong Kong and and Shanghai Bank farnish a striking proof of this inability of the exotic financier to strike his roots deeply into Chinese soil, and now the fall of the house of Russell & Co. re- poste the lesson. For many years foreign nkers have been completely at the mercy of their native shroffs. people hold in their sensitive fingers the integrity of the currency and dictate profit or loss to their | employers. No one ean do business without their aid as middlemen, and they have used their beni with a relentiessness which has pretty much driven out the foreigner from the ield. Not a bag of Mexican dollars goes over any counter in China unless each coin is touched by a ehroff and its value determined. They are supposed to be infallible in their ability to detect short weight, and still I never saw two shroffs decide upon the same bag of Mexicans alike. However, they are bound to- gether by the customary Chinese trades union- with the Chinese except as they passon the cir- culating medium. The evil has grown worse and worse of late years, until now the native money changers and accountants monopolize about all the gains to be made out of any busi- contempt on any profits deviated from the Chi- nese themselves to the pockets of outsiders. For years, therefore, it has been very hard sled- ding for foreign firms on the China coast, and probably we shall see fewer and fewer of those great houses and colossal fortunes which char- acterized the China trade in days past. And what is true of China, is, toa less extent, true of Japan. ‘TRE LATEST NEWSPAPER GOSSIP. ‘Newspaper news is again of general interest. After many years of rumors Col. Cockerill has actually left the World and started into jour- nalism on his own hook. He has bought the Com- mercial- Advertiser and the Daily Continent, and now the question is whether the new combina- tion will not lose as much money as both the Separate members of it did alone. He paid $175,000 for the Commercial- Advertiser, which is rather less than the Godwin family'paid for principal backer in the new venture is John Stetson of the Boston Athenwum. It is re- ported that young Mr. Hearst of California is also interested in the new company. No change has yet appeared in the looks or the con- tents of the Commercial-Advertiser, but no doubt when the new administration gets under- to it and make it what he always meant it should be—a republican paper for the millions, without any such pronounced personal favorit ism as marks the Tribune. The accession of Mr. Merrill, from the Philadelphis Press, will strengthen its New York namesake, as Mr. Merrill has shown journalistic ability of a high of the country. DRS.

There may bea gen- eral suspicion that these stories are “fakes,” and that the spirit with the body of Blavatsky lies at rest for eternity, but some who would idicule the idea of a ghost believe in the Spiritual manifestation through the occult im- pression upon some active mind: In that sense it is said that the spirit of Blavatsky has been DISCLOSED IN WASHINGTON. But this ghost cannot take the place of the natural Blavateky. Whether a fraud and fakir, or a being of supernatural endowments, the public assoviate her name with theosophy, and regard her death as leaving a vacancy for some one to fill in that neutral ground between the material and the occult world. Dr. Elliot Coues was not, for some years be- fore her death, a friend of Blavateky’s, though at one time they were quite closely associated. Dr. Cones persists in pronouncing the at priestess a fakir anda fraud, whose natural tal- ents were exercised for the deception of the credulous, But Dr.Couesis a theosophist and be- Hieves that there is a life spiritual as well as alife physical and that both the spiritual and the are uatural and that the spiritual, while not a thing tangible, may become mani- He makes a broad distinction between the spiritual and the super natural. A Stan reporter had a long talk with him the other night about Blavatsky and theosophy. There will be no successor to Blavatsky in the school of thought known as theosophy, he says, and there is no such school of thought. The name, he says, fraud and deception. Her books bjects are plagiarisms from numerous obscure and forgotten authors, and her manifestations were deceptions, He claims proof of this and ridicules the idea of such inspiration. He ridicules the idea of Solid substance being materialized out of thi ¥ of @ spirit coming paper notes being precipitated out of the arc—all that which is unnatural he denounces. The trouble in talking on such a subject, he says, is to convey, an idea of just what he hen he says that the spiritual part of one living or dead may appear to an- Other person ats long distance from the body of the visiting spirit. Within hie meaning such a manifestation is the spiritual communication of two persons, and not the actual appearance of a “ghost” in nothing at all where the aparition bas been seen, He says there is no schoolof theosophy: that every man who makes a study of hisown spiritual nature, recognizing that he is com- posed of the two beings, one spiritual and the other physical, is a theosophist. Any one who GHOSTS NOT MADE. TO ORDER All this show business of spiritualism, he con- tends, is a fraud.

As regards the curious idea that Mme. Ble- junction with Col, H. 8. Olcott, the president Of the society, and Mr. Wm. Q. Judge, a prom- inent New York lawyer, vice president and the leader of the movement in America, Mum Blavhtsky was the founder of the Thoosophiei ciety, and this is a position that cannot well be carried either by «coup d'etat or other- wise. Mme. Blavatsky was _correspondi tecretary of the ‘Theosophical Bocietse a purely honorary post, which, under the coustitution, it is unnecessary to fill at her de- cease. During the Inst six months, in conse- quence of the growth of the society, she tem- porarily exercised the presidential authority in urope by delegation from Col. Olcott in or- der to facilitate the transaction of business,and with her death the delegation naturally becomes void. Her great position in the movement was dueto her knowledge, to her ability,toher unswerving loyalty, not to the holding of office, and the ex- ternal ‘organization remains practically un- touched. Her special function was that of teacher, and he or she who would fill her place must have her knowledge. (Signed) Annie Besant, C. CarterBlake, Doc. Sci.; Herbert Burrows, F. T. 8; Laura M.
