New Yonrk, Dec. 12.—The Tribune this morning savs: Within the past few days the gossip of Wall streot has been pointing to the so-called Goulda contingent as the principal part of the short eloment existing in the stock mavket. Many conservative commission brokers are satisfied that the short interest in the leading stocks is ex- tromely large. Their own exporience and investigations into the conditions of the stock loan market here aud in other cities have convinced them that some large operators aro soverely short of stocks and at prices which ave far below the present basis. It is not to be denied, eitlier, that common belief holas the biggest bears to bo the sons of Jay Gould and the persons who imitate their supposed speculative position, It is argued that this must be the case oe- cause of the long hestitationof Mr. Gould in assenting to the plan by which the collateral trust of threo years was created to provide for the floating deot of the Union Pacitic and the “ultra conservatism’ shown in the pass- ing of quartorly dividends ou the Missouri Pacitic at the end of Seotember. This action was u severe shock to confidence in Wall street, and it was not until the last week that its effect was seen to have worn away on the stock market. There is no doubt that Jay Gould himself countemplated antagonizing the summer's upward move- ment, but gossip credits the young Goulds with having beeu betrayed into a bear place. s IRONY OF FATE. Miserable Death of a Once Wealthy and Powerful Man. KANsAs Oy, Mo, Doe. 12.—An unkempt man with a king like face died in a cheap lodging house on the corner of Walnut street and Missourl avenue this morning. There are people in iar away lands who will feel that fate has avenged them when they hear of his death. The old man called himself Schmit, but bis real nume was Adolpn Sacht, and this name was once in the directorate of an honorable and respected bank in Ham- burg, German, The insttution of which he was a director was the St, Pauli Credit banlk, which failed under suspicious circumstances a fow years ago. Whel examination of its affairs was wade it was discovered that no assets re- mained (0 meet the ocluims of depositors.

He also founded a similar i hospitat at Iowa City. In 1867 he became tho physician of the Soldiors and Orphans Home of this city, and later it was through his efforts that this institution was made to include all indigent children of the state, Its real usefulness has increased sice then.

As soon as they have suficiently re- covered from the shook of theix son’s terrible death they will go to New York and bring back the remaius for suitable burial, Reuben Nickerson, an elevator boy who was quite intimate with Noreross and wus an almost daily visitor to his office, says that his last visit was a week ago Wednesday. Ho called again Friday, the day of the explo- sion, about 3 o'clock. “Tne office was locked. He had valled there frequently since, but had obtained no entrance, Ou theoccasion of his visiton the Wednesday mentioned, the two had a long chat, Ou the right haad side of the room, as ons enters, is a sink, On this sink, Nickerson says, ho saw o number of small vials resting, When Nickerson suw tho bottles he got up frow his seat and went er toward them. Taking one of them in bis hand he heid it up to the light of the window and endeavored to in- spect the contents. Norcross, rushing toward. hiw, grabbed him by the arm and exclaimed : “Dou’t touch that,” at the same time taking the bottie away from the boy and placing 1t besides the others on thesink. Norcross was ircensely pale and excited. Followlng this incident, and a moment later, ho grabbed up the entire collection of bottles, placed them in bis desk, which is rarely used, aud locked them up. Then Norcross' excitement in- creased, and e sald: 1 must catch my train.”” Both of them left, Norcross going in the direction of the Lowell depot. At that time Nickerson noticed that Norcross was beginning to raise a beard. Nickerson declares that the cut of the Now York dynamiter, which appeared in the papers, has & most striking resemblance to ihe missing man. George C. Sheldon, who, for a couple of years, was associated in business with Nor- cross, was shown a picture of the head today. Ho found poiuts of resemblace: the lips, the nose and general snape of the face were like | those of Noreross, but tne cheeks looked fuller and the oyes did not seem quite so close together.
