Then the war camo aud for eight years nothing was done, As 8000 as it haa , ho Mr. Field again took up his schicine and in 1555 the first successful laid hav cables overywhere,and therels in Mr, Pield’s ofice a groat case fillea with s@etions of wire o cut from the great cables of tne world. Th ave 8 8coro of these bohind the glass door of this case, and they represent lines to South Amorica, along tho coast of Africa, through the Meditorrancan sea und ulong the waters of China and Japan. Mr. Pield told me that there was no doubt but that a successful lino could bo made across the Pacitic, and ho showed mo a map which he hud had made in support of a similar schems proposed by him to congrass moro than eleven years awo. At this time Mr. Fieid proposod cables for Japan, Australia and the Saudiwich Islands, and the map shows that 17.000 miles of cablo would give us two cables to Jupan and one to Australia, Taking the. northern route, run- ning from Puget Sound to Viadivostock and thence down to Corea, the distarce is 4,000 miles, and adding to this 20 cont for slack, would make a cable of this Kind ex- tend 4,500 miles from one continent to the other. "It is 2,100 miles from San Francisco 1o the Sandwich isiands und more than ,400 miles from the Sandwich islands to Japan. With the slack in the cable, for the line has to uccommodato itself tothe hills and valleys on the bed of the sea, the cavle aong this route from San Francisco to Yokohama would have to be 6,700 miles long, and a branch line from the Saudwich Islands running down to Australia would bo 5,000 miles more, muking a total of 17,000 wiles in all. {al Corrospond- t import noxt Ihe from San Fran 1 be revived from acitic now and laid the wad o Among the mos aan cablos \cisco to China, across b0 propos 1083 as overyono knows, cable in 1t cost He a close avor, ble was Now we o Cyrus W. Field at 72, Ifound Mr. Field in his oflice in the big Field building at the foot of Broadway. Ho is 72 years old and bis hair is gray, but bo is full of vigor and ho is as bright intelloct- ually now as when he planued the Atlantic cablo nearly half a century ago. Ho is avout six feet tall "aud rather spare than otherwise. He has tho samo fine silky hair and somowhat tho same features as his brother, Judge Field of thesupreme boneh, though he is more nery- ous and less judicial in hisaspect. Hois still one of the rich men of New York and is worth his mitlions, He is larcely iuterested in the elovated road, and, when I asked him as 10 what he thought of the cable which was voing put down on Kroadway and to give mo his idea of the future of rapid transit in New York, bo replied that this matter was now being discussed by a commitiee and thut he didu’t caro to sy anything concerning it until after they had made their decision. The Future of New York, The discussion of the cable road brought up tho wonderful growth of New York city,and T asked Mr. [ield what ho thought of its fu- ture. He replicd: “I'camo to New Yorl whon I was fifteen, ana my first work hero was in A.'T. Stow- art's employ, At this timo New York bad only 0,000 peoplo. It was not much bigger than Washington is now. Ihave soen it prow right along from year to year until 00w, with its suburbs andBrookiyn, it con- tains more than 3,000,000 people. London has only 5,000,000 and I believe that this will be the greatest seaport in the world.” “How about the growth of fortunes " said I. “Our great fortunes,” suid Mr. Iield, »aro among the wonders of modern times. 1 don’t belisve there was a miilionaire in the country at tho timo of the revolution, and now you may find one in almost every county and in every city of the Umited States. 1t is not very long ngo that tho richest man in the stuie of New York haa ouly an income of F1,500 a year in money. This was Van Rens- selaer of Albany, who died about fifty y ago, and who had at one time W0 farms of ncres each under cultivation. He rented theso out at 1 per cent on their valuatiou and he had a good deal of an income that cama in kind, in tho shape of farm products, ete. His monoy income was, however, only §1,500, and hewas considored the richest man of his day Now we have our Vandorbilts, our Astors, and numerous other men of many millions Williaw H. Vanderbilt when he died was the richest individual m the world. Ha loft 200,000,000, 1 suppose William Waldorf Astor is now one of the richiest men in the world, and tho Astor family is growing richer from year to year.” Do you kiow of any moans by which a fortuno may be perpetuated in the United States " “No,” replicd Mr. Field, “I do not, Our laws are such that the perpotuation of & for- tune and the keeping of a vast sum of monoy {n one family is almost impossible. T think it is far bottor forus that it 1s so. Stiil the ac cumulations of our rich men are enormous and the combinations of capital during our madern times tend to make thewm more so." “Will we over bave u billionaire “I can’t say as to that,” was tho reply “New developments . naturo and new elements in fortune making are com- ing into the field every day. Tho bitrate kg ' of South Americ has bas, it scems, Jumped to the frout as one of tho'rich men'of tho time, und what can you tell s to the futuro?” Do you think, Mr. Field, that the chance for & younk man is as good Now as wiken you started i life, and what would be your ad vice to young men ("’ U1 dou't see why the chances are ot as good now as ever. It is true much is done by combinations of cupital, still the field 15 larger and the possibilitios aro fully as great As to my advico to young men, 1 would say iStick to what you undertake.

The cask of Scotch whisky which the mil liouaire, Carnegie, sent to President Harri son s caused a Lot smoky thrill of indigna tion among the probibition people of tho United State It recalls the barrel of brandy which General Henry M. Naglee, the noted vineyard owner on th ific coast, sent to Cleveland. ~ General leo was a groat ad wirer of Presidont Cleveland and he had a barrel mado with silver hoops which e filled with the finest of grape braudy, worth at least 20 a gallon. He expressed this to the late Willinm Dorsheimer of New York and asked him to prosent it to Cleveland. Dor sheimer promised to do this and the brandy was shipped from California to New York, and from thence it probably eamo to the white house. The wine Dbills of the whito house have been in the past some of the wost expensive items of presidential expendituro, and there are fex of the presidents who have not had more or less wine presented to them. President Artbur had some very choice wine which was given him by the famous lobbyist, Sam Ward, and which he brought out only on the most importauts oceasion Presiaent Johnson had a fine article of paie sherry and he was fond of someScuppernong wine sent hin by his friends in North Carolina, Thomas Jefforson spent the most for wines of all our presidents, and bis account books shiow that bo gave ovor $10,000 for shorrios, brandi and champagnes whilo be was in the white house. He ordered his wines by the hundreas of bottios and in _tho first year of bis presidency he speat $2,600 on liguors. President Washington, though ho was a temperato arinker himself, bad good wines on his table and he aiways took two glasses of madeira ot dinner. ~ During his first campuign for the house of burgesses in Virginia I fina a barrel of whisky for the treating of voters set down in the items of his account book and ne always served wines at his stato dinners. John Tyler, tho son of the president, once told me that his father's brandy cost him $4 a gallon and that he in- ported his own madeira, sending shelled Indian corn from bhis irginia plantation ~ over to Ma- deira to be exchanged for it. Buchanan al- ways had good wines and so had Grant and Cievelaud, Hayes is the only president in bistory who has not served wines at bis stato dinners, and as for Andrew Jackson, he ul- wiys had good liquors and plenty of them, ‘Phie night aftor bis inauguration the carpots in the east room of the white house weco ruined by the orange punch which w brought into the room in buckets. There were barrels of this punch and when the waiters entered with the buckets tho guests rushed for it and in the scramblo that en- sued glasses wers broken and dresses spoiled.” The tubs of puuch wero finally takon out into the white house grounds, and in this way the throng was drawn off and_it was possiblo to serve caio and wine. Oue of the hardest drinkers among tho presidents was Andrew Johuson. He was drunk wheu he was iuaugurated as vice presidont and kept bis bottlo generally uear him. While he was governor of Tennessee he had a jug in the washstaud in his exccutive ofiice and he treated bis frieuds from this. Dick Wintersmith's Great Argument The Rodman Price claim which pussed the last congress has beon practically sottled, but the secretary of the treasury will not givethe claimants the 75,000 which they thought thoy woutd receive. There was case in # New Jorsoy court concerning this claim which showed that a few hundred do lars would legally settio it, and tho secretary of tho treasury allowed only the latter sum. While the case was boforo Sceretary Foster some of the most noted lawyers of the coun try appeared in its favor. There were mon of the calibre of Senator Edmunds, Robert G. Inversoll and othiers, but the strongest argument was made by Colonel Dick Winter: smith_of Kentucky, Colonel Wintersmith made bis argument” in_a whisper. e got close up to Secretary Foster and seid : Mr. Secretary, these other lawyers b good arguments but mine is suporior to all, Thiscaso is & ground-h so witi me. And with that he slipped a strip of paper out of his breast pocket, held it_behind his arm and came closer still to Secretary Foster whispering: Mr. Secretary, do you see that note for 2001 That note has goue to protest, and if this Price claim isn't settled in our favor I don't know where in the devil I'm going to get the money to pay it See rotary Foster laughed, Ho sympathized with Wintersmith, but he docided the case agaiust him.
