OFFICE. *3 ‘ NEW YORK LETTER. Of the many interesting facts than can be told about the old Arcade building at No. 71 Broadway, soon tc be razed in favor of an up-to—date sky-scraper, the most peculiar, per haps, is that the history of the build- ing is familiar to fewer people that that of any other ancient landmark \in the city. All Wall street, practi- cally, passes through it six days in the week, and about all the thousands oi bankers, brokers, speculators and clerks, who walk through- the building= on their way to and from the finan- cial district. can tell you about it is that Russell Sage has his oflice there. and not a few years ago the famous bomb explosion occurred. The twc most noted characters who have occu- pied oflices in the Arcade are Russel? Sage and Jay Gould. Mr. Sage, whci: he leaves for hisnew quarters in tlic Bank of Commerce building next month, will have been a tenant for more than 15 years. Mr. Sage was the originator of a line of business which grew~to great proportions street. He instituted the “privilege RUSSELL SAGE. system,” by which brokers and traders in securities who had small means were enabled to test their judgment by large operations. and at the same time protect themselves from heavy loss. He sold “puts” and “calls." “spreads” and “straddles,” with the result that dealings on the Stock Ex- change greatly increased. As is fre- quently the case, the inventor profits little, and Mr. Sage lost several mil- lions of dolPars in the privilege busi- ness, and that, too, in a half week. It was toward the end of May, 1894. Mr. Sage had sold puts upon thou- sands nnd thousands of shares of stock. The market suddenly became weak, prices dropped away, and a panic was threatened. It should be borne “privileges” are contracts not enforc- able by law. It is also borne in mind now that Russell Sage never went back on his word. For three days he sat with pen in hand and, amidst the excitement, when over 200 brokers were clamoring to get into his pres- the Importers’ and Traders’ Bank, un- til he had used up several books and time. $4,000,000 of his fortune melt away like snowflakes in the sun. It was on December 4, 1891, a Fri~ day, and, to be exact, 12:30 o’clock, for Secretary Menzie’s watch stopped at that moment, when the crank, Nor— cross, who wanted over $1,000,000 of Mr. Sage's money, threw the bomb that killed himself and injured Mr. Sage and others and blew the office into kindling wood. That event was of too recent date to need a reminder of the details and the discovery of the would-be assassin through the medium of a clothes button which was picked up in the building. Everybody in the building was shaken up and scared wt of considerable growth. When some outside barbarian ac- cuses New Yorkers of luck of civic pride, the loyal G-otliziinitc usually points to Madison Square Garden and the Metropolitan Opera House as evi- dence to the contrary. : "Ilerc," he has been wont to explain with true Knick— erbocker pride, “are two magnificent monuments to public spirit. Both these splendid structures have been built and maintained at a loss by men who dedicated them to the service and amusement of their fellow-citizens.” But there is a limit to good nature. The stockholders of the Madison Square Garden Company think that they are satisfied with the experience they have gained. and are quite will- ing now to have some-one else shoul- der the load. So they decided. Any enterprising agriculturist who wishes to try his lian at this sort of garden- ing can get the site at a bargain, and have the famous bronze Diana, that moves with every wind on the latest style of ball-bearing axis, thrown in. The Garden was evolved out of the old Harlem Railroad depot, and as sumed its present shape in 1890. It is the largest building in the country en- tirely devoted to purposes of amuse- ment. The arena holds 11,000 people, the theatre 1.200 and the assembly hall 1,200 more. It has been the scene of many notable events, social, political and sporting. The hope is that some multbmillionaire, or a syndicate of them, may come forward and buy in the building, and either continue it in its present form, or remodel it, so that, while preserving its essential features, additions may be made' that will ren- der the property, in a. measure, a profitable investment. .

His Strange Doings to Be Urged In Ex- tenuation of His Crime. _ Amesbury, Mass, April 22.—The news of her son’s arrest and subsequent con- fession of guilt as the murderer of Cashier Stickney, of the Great Falls National bank of Somersworth, N. H.. has prostrated the mother of Joseph E. Kelley and today she was seriously ill. In fact. her condition was such that Mr. Kelley has abandoned his plan to go to Somersworth at once and will remain, with his wife until she is much better. Since yesterday there has been much talk here about Kelley’s probable in- sanity and many references have been heard to the fall which he sustained when a child, the facts of which have been recalled since the first intimation of Kelley’s possible connection with the murder. It is pointed out that the theory of mental unsoundness is the only one consistent with the many strange acts he has committed since he was a. boy. It is expected that this will be urged as extenuation for the crime when Kelley comes before the courts. Kelley Professes Religion. Montreal, April 22.—Kelley, the Som- ersworth murderer, was to have been arraigned today, but the absence of Ex- tradition Commissioner Judge Dugas delayed matters. Kelley has made a long statement about his former de- plorable lack of religion, which he blames for his present plight. He pro- fesses to have been converted anew by reflection upon his crime. Fatal Fire at Chicago. Chicago, April 22.—Two lives were lost and three dwellings partially de-l stroyed by fire in a building at 4226 Ashland avenue. Many of the occu- pants were forced to jump from the windows, while others were taken down ladders. The persons killed were John McCleash and John Coyne. Goyne, who was but 13‘ years old, was found in the arms of MeCleash, who had evidently perished in an effort to save the boy. Republicans Win In Omaha. Omaha, April 22.—Complete returns from the election show the election of the entire Republican city ticket and seven out of nine councilmen.

Now that Japan is on the brink of replacing her currency on the exclusive gold basis, we presume" that we shall no longer be worried with fearful vi- sions of her growing industrial suprem- acy, which was alleged to be' due to the silver standard. It was affirmed that whatever goods Japan sold in this coun- try, being paid for in gold, practically doubled the seller’s income when the proceeds were converted into silver.

The fuchsia, which is now in every garden, fifty years ago was exceeding- ly rare and highly valued; and the story of this beautiful shrub’s introduc- tion into our gardens is interesting. Some time in the first quarter of the present century a gentleman from Liv‘ erpool, while walking through a street in Wapping. saw' in the window of a ' humble-looking tenement a graceful lit- tle shrub, with dark green leaves and beautifully pendulous carnation blos- soms. He was charmed with the new floral gem, and, when he returned to Liverpool, called upon a celebrated florist, to whom he described the plant. The curiosity of the florist, who did not ' know any plant which came up to the, description, was so greatly excited that he set of! immediately for London. Having found the house, by seeing the plant in the window, he entered, and iscertained that its owner was the wife of a sailor, and that her husband had , brought the plant home from the West indies as a love-offering to his young spouse. The delighted florist made overtures for the purchase of the fu- chsia, which were at first strenuously refused. After some little time, box-.- ever, he got posSession of the much- coveted prize. Having given the sail- or’s wife a handsome sum of money in hand, and a promise that the first plant raised from it should be sent to her, he started for Liverpool, and after proper treatment, he soon had the plant ex- hibited in his show-room, where it in- stantly attracted the attention oil-ama- teurs. After fulfilling his promise to the seller's wife at Wapping, be real- lzed some £300 the first year the plant was exhibited, and was thus well re- paid for his enterprise. _..__-_.__-.__~.‘—-—————' .
