Secretary Foster of the Treasury Department said toa Stan reporter this morning that the death of Jay Gould would have no appreciable effect on finances or stocks. “His death,” Secretary continued, “‘has already been dis- counted. In preparation for the final end Mr. Gould's affairs have been placed in the hands of his son George and other persons who can be relied upon, and they have been eo well dis- oe in rafe hands that there can be no dan- an: wro Oakes vane a eres wan, secretary's opinion, no»pos- sible danger of a financial panic. dip Another treagu ial said this ‘that the bears in Wall street might attempt to profit by Mr. Guuld’s death, but were not likely to any more than they did in a simi- lar attempt to bear the market on the occasion of Mr. Vanderbilt's death.

They will be happy because they will know that they have done something to bring comfort and gladness into homes that would, without this aid, be cheeriess enough on Christ- mas day, and because of the knowledgp that lit- tle children of the poor whose Christmas por- tion would otherwise be hunger and want will be enabled to share in the joy which Christmas Pare 2| is supposed to bring to litte ones the world | over. And this is the way it is to be done ‘Tuk Stan intends to organize a great big children of the expended under the direction of a committes in relieving the distresses of the poor. Each child contributing 10 cents to the funds of the club is to receive from Tar Evetso Star a pretty badge asa token of membership. The near approach of Christmas brings thoughts of both gindness and sadness. The season should be one of joyous thanksgiving to all, but many poor people realize their poverty all the more when they instore for their more prosperous neighbors, and will consider themselves fortunate if they can get enough to eat and keep themselves | warm. At this time of year one is inclined in- stinctively to think of the necessary suffering among the poor and the true Christmas feeling i# « desire to do some deed that will be of bene- | fit to others. Those who carry out this com-/ dable impulse will be all the happier for it. apled with thi that one's charit: may bemisdirected and those fi ‘Tue Stan's plan will be the means of carry ing comfert and good cheer to many a house- hold that would otherwise have but little | Christuias pleasure, and at the same time will satisfy thore who join in the good work that thore is no misdirected charity connected with it. Tue Evexrxo Stan Santa Claus Club has been organized to secure a fund to be expended by an executive committee, principally in sup- plying provisions, fuel and comfortable cloth- ing to deserving poor. The executive committee will be composed of Mr. FB. Noyes, Mr. Rudolph Kauffmann and Mr. H. P. Godwin, representing Tue Evesxo Stan; Mr. John T. Mitchell, presi- dent of the school board; Mr. W. B. Powell, superintendent, and Mr. A. T. Stewart, repre- | senting the public schools; Mr. R. Ross Perry, who was 80 active in the Children’s Christmas Club, and Mr, L. 8. Emery of the Asrociated Charities. This committee will havo full charge of all the finances of the club and will make all the expenditures and direct the distributing of supplies. ‘The work of the Santa Claus Club will not interfere with the charities that have been car- ried out in the schools in former years. As usual the children will be asked to bring to the schools before Christmas day contributions of groceries, fuel, clothing, &c., to be distributed through the G. A. R. relief committee, the As- sociated Charities and other agencies, This plan of forming Tue Evexrse Stan Santa Claus Club has been brought to the at- tention of the public school authorities, and it Jhas met Aot only with their cordial approval, but with general enthusiasm. They saw at once what a broad field would be covered by this well-planned charity and promised the active co-operalion of the public schools. The complete public school system will bean efficient agency in bringing the matter to the immediate attention of the thousands of school children and the membership fees will become ‘8 nucleus of the fund which it is expected will be considerably increased by contributions from the general public. As stated, the badges will be supplied by Tur Evextye Stan and no portion of the member- ship fees will be expended in that direction, but the whole fund will be donated to charity. The payment of the 10 cents initiation fee will not be the only duty required of «chool membérs, however. They will be expected to form themselves into individual committees of investigation and to bring to the attention of the executive committee cases deserving of charity that would otherwise, perhaps, never | be discovered, for many poor people bare a feeling of pride that prevents them from mak- ing their wants known, Any little child who can feel that he or she has been instrumental in bringing comfort and happiness to some cheerless household will get | gage, who was “long of the market, eas won more genuine pleasure from that feeling than from all the presents that Santa Claus or loving relatives and fmends may shower upon them. Asameans of ascertaining what cases are worthy of assistance it will be the duty of pub- lic school children to report to their respective teachers lists of those whom they or their pa- rents may find in their neighborhood destitute or deserving the benefits of the club. ‘The subcommittees necessary to classify the lists submitted by the school children to their teachers and prevent duplication of names, &e., will consist of the supervising principals as chairmen and such assistants among the teach- ers as may be necessary, Any child not iw the public schodl may join the club and receive a badge, but the active work of hunting out those who are to be the benoficiaries must necessarily be confined to the schools, where it can be systematized by the principals and teachers, But the public isnot to be deprived from participating in the good work, and Tue Stax invites all those whose hearts aro softened at this season and who have money to give to con- tribute it to swell the funds of the club, prom- ising that it will be judiciously applied and do more good than if given at random.

A great bull movement, based on the euormous of the year, was in vrogress. The directors of the Missouri Pacific mot and both Mr, Gould and bis son George favored « passing of the dividend.
