He has turned over the Maison Riche, 104 Grant avenue, which he had conducted for fifteen years, to several of his chief creditors, and for himself is seeking a clerical position, the salary attached to which would pay for but very few dinners at his once famous place. Ladagnous has been in financial troubl for several years. The time was when the Maison Riche was the resort of million- | aire miners and merchants, the gilded youth and the swagger set. Any one who had said that the genial proprietor was not coining money would have been laughed at by those who knew something of the amount of money that passed through his hands In reality the golden opportunity was lost. Ladagnous conducted his business with a liberality that left but little coin in the till. Presently times began to change and his business felt it first. Even | the men who live at high-priced French | restaurants can come down to the four-bit | sort if driven to it by a light purse. Then | other restaurants, newer and sweller in | equipment, were ' established near the Maison Riche and cut deeply into its busi- | @ ness. Most fatal of all his business misfor- tunes, Ladagnous had a class of patrons who rolled high on credit. The genial pro- prietor was lenient and lét their bills run. | Two years ago he had such accounts run- ning well up into the thousands, and get- | ting in financial debtors so persi: them paid their custom. months straits he pressed the tently that nearly all of up—but went elsewhere with g}go Ladagnous, sick from yron Springs for a rest. he notified his broth- 3 .

Thus has fickla Fortune turned her back on the once pros- | perous partner of John Somali in the pro- prietorship of the old California House and the founder of the Maison Riche.

Technical Improvements. The technical improvements in means of transportation which have done most to revolutionize travel ard traffic during the last 100 years are the invention of macadam and telford roads, the appli- ocean commerce and the introduction of the steam and electric railways. Future writers on transportation will doubtless be obliged to dwell at some length upon the social and industrial changes hrought about by the bicycle and the automobile. | Their introduction has so recently taken place that the consideration of their influ- ence may properly be postponed for a dec- ade.

In these latter days of large ocean vesseis | we hardly realize how small the odean | ships were 100 years ago. The Grand | Turk, of 564 tons, constructed in 1791, was | probably the largest ship built in Amer- ica up to that time. During the fourth decade of the nineteenth century some ain, of 3000 gross tons, was built. One hun- | drea years ago, however, a vessel of 300 tons was still considered a large ship, and as late as 184 vessels of that size traded | | from the United States to India and Chi- na. At the present time we have vessels over 700 feet long, with a displaceme: | 28,500 tons and a draught of 32l feet. The engines on these mammoth ships are | capable of developing 30.000 horsepower | and will carry 2006 or persons across ‘ahe ocean at the rate of over 500 miles a ay. The evolution of the railway equally striking illustration of the tec! | nfcal evolution that has taken place in the transportation machine during the last century. Stevenson’s famous Rocket, | which won the prize in the contest at Rainhill, England, in 1520, weighed five tons. Engines are now bullt weighing 100 [ e R e R e e resents an ° - | > . i @ 5 . ST RAMNY — ’3"“?» | %S ¢ | iR | i = - | ® THE CLERMONT. . @eieoei et eieieio® tons. At the time of the introduction of the raflway it was considered remarkabie that an engine could make twenty-five or thirty miles an hour. At the present time we are familiar with speeds as high as eighty and ninety miles an hour. The freight cars of the present time, instead of carrying five tons. are built to transport from thirty to fifty tons each, and the freight train has increased its load from 100 to 2000 tons. This mlrvelous development in speed of travel and in vol- ume of trainload has been accompanied by an equally great improvement in the comforts of travel and in the speed and regularity of traffic movements. trains carrying 1000 to 1500 tons of freight are dispatched 1600 miles or more accord. | ing to a schedule that is as strictly ad- | hered to as are passenger schedules. | Effects on Commerce. Transportation is the handmaid of trade Whatever enables this handmaid to do her | work cheaper and quicker enlarges the | scope and volume of the world's com- | merce. When one considers that it cost | nearly four times as' much in 157 to ship wheat from Chicago to New York as it does twenty-five years later one can read- ily understand how transportation has re- moved the hindrances to inland and for- eign commerce. Effects Upon Industry. Another effect of the modern transpor- | tation system has been to make possible | and to hasten the substitution of produc- | tion on a large scale for production on a | { small scale. The manufacturing carried on in the homes and in the small factories is everywhere giving way to the industries | of the large factories. In nearly all forms | of industry production on a large scale by means of great aggregations of capital is the rule. In manufacture, in mining and lumbering this is notably so. In the mer- cantile business and to some extent in | agriculture there is manifest a tendency to extend the scope of the individual busi- ness organization. It is improved trans- | portation which has made this possible. The substitution of production on a large scale for small industries has been accompanied by another important indus- trial change consisting of the localization of the leading kinds of production in | localities possessing special advantages. As long as the crude materials of indus- ! try and the commodities to be marketed | could be transported any considerable dis- tance only by slow and expensive meth- | oda it Was necessary for all forme of in- dustry to be as widely distributed as pos- sible, in order that producers and con- sumers might be kept close together; but | the modern transportation system has | largely changed this. Now the various | industries are respectively located where | the net balance of advantages {s greatest. | This lccalization of industry has resulted | in an international and a local distribu- | tion of productive enterprises. The - i ple of the TUnited Kingdom have long | since decided to devote themselves mainly | to manufacture and commerce, buving | most of their food supplies of people liv- | { ing in regions where agriculture can be | carried on more advantageously. In New | England and the northeastern part of the | United States a similar industrial ange |is in progress. For two decades the va- ! rious woolen industries of the United ! States, for instance. have been ravidly concentrating in New England and the North Atlantic States, while those States | have at the same time been buying in- creasing amounts of flour. meats and | other foods from the Western States. | The manufacture of iron and steel in the United States is now largely confined to Pi!llt::’?. Cleveland, Birmingham, Chi- cago a few other cities especially fa- vorably located as rej fuel supplies and :hlp?ln‘ facilities. Numerous other similar illustrations will suggest them- selves to the reader. Transportation and Production.

Relation to Social Welfare. ‘Transportation | atstributed in | some extent the r large cities, whith portion of the ma are being _estabil course, other reasons why m v ing to the cities—one being the soclal ad- vantages which the city affords—but ths main cause for the growth of cities is in- dustrial, and that cause is operative and potent because of the industrial which have accompanied the dev of transportation. The growth of citles, the consequent establishment of such a large percentage of the population in the surroundings of life which prevail in the cities, has produced social benefits that have often been underrated; but it | has also placed certain groups of society in very unwholesome and immoral sur- roundings. The sium population of our citles co tutes a soclal excrescence whose exist- ence is due to the crowding of population in the great industrial and commercia centers.® Though deplorable. the evils of city life are remediable. They represent a phase of the present period of transition { from the more segregated life of former | generations to the conditions of congre- ated existence. The social evils wh ga\'e manifested themselves with the growth of cities will be met and overcome | in turn and good conditions will be estab- lished. Indeed. the very agemcy that has done more than any other to mass men in the crowded cities is now doing much by means of the electric cars and other forms of rapid transit to enable the city | population to spread out so as to aveid | overcrowding.

The economic and soctal influences which transportation _exerts are not bounded by national limits. An important consequence of transportation and com- munication has been that of bringing the nations of the world into closer economic and_social relations. With the growing solidarity of the economic interests of the countries of the world, with the muitipii- | cation of the intellectual and other social ties that unite nations, their political re- lations inevitably change, and for the bet- ter. Nothing is doing more to advance the stiainment of the cherished ideal of international amity than is the develop- nt of transportation. e G MORY R. JOHNSON.
