METROPOLITAN NOTES.
Interesting Facts and Opinions Chronicled
by the Daily Press of New York.
The subject of rapid transit is again
being considered by a commission con-
listing of Alexander E. Orr, the'Presi-
dent; Seth Low, John Claflin, William
Steinway, and John H. lnman.
The latest scheme for underground
traffic is presented by Chief Engineer W.
B. Parsons, who estimates the cost of
building at sixty-six miiliuns of dollars.
It is proposed to traverse the entire length
of New York by an underground road as
soon as a feasible scheme shall be pre-
sented. Above Fourteenth street the
underlying rock comes close to the sur-
face, and tunnelling can be carried on
through this with comparative cheapuess
674515.95140
%‘;z I 1,.
l 0011: 7321076
and expedition, either by opening the
surface of the streets or by working
entirely under ground. Below Fourteenth
street the rock lies deeper, and over it are
beds of unstaple sands. The great build-
ings which line Broadway would render
tunnelling through these sands at any
great depth a very unsafe operation.
Along a great part of this route, too,
sidewalk vaults extend to the curb line,
and these would have to be cut into and
a part of them occupied in order to get
room for a fountrack road such as has
been advocated and provisionally adopt-
ed. The practical impossibility of making
such a subway without tearing up the
whole street and stopping traffic on the
cable road has been admitted.
_. The Wall street swindlers operate under
names that are calculated to deceive
persons with whom they deal. Nearly
every well known name in the financial
world has been slightly distorted and
adopted by the bucket shop manipulators,
who operate what they call “investment
combinations and discretionary pools.“
Such names, for instance, as Drexel,
Baring, Morgen, and Vanderbilt. They
operate almost entirely through the
mails, and it may be possible that the
authorities who are making such strenu-
ous efforts to discourage them may suc-’
ceed in reaching them through the United
States laws. An illustration of the
methods adopted by these concerns is
furnished by a. recent scheme of one of
them to entrap the clerks of a big insur-
ance company in this city. By some
means or other the swindlers got hold of
the names and addresses of the clerks,
upward of 1,000 in number, and for
several weeks each clerk has been receiv-
ing at his private address an artfully
worded circular asking him to contribute
anywhere from $25 to $1,000 to a pool
which it was asserted was sure to make
money. The letter says: “We assure you
that you will make a fortune within six
months if you will turn your savings.
over to us. There is absolutely no risk in
the matter. By massing together the
money of many small investors into one
large sum we are able to operate exactly‘
as do Addison Cammack and George
Gould—N. Y. Sun.
New York never does things half way
and she has a perfect right to be proud of
herself in that regard. Whether it’s
submitting to Tammany or whipping
Tammany, or doing or undoing other
things too numerous to mention, she does
them in a whole-hearted, open-handed
sort of way that is very exasperating to
would-be rivals. And now she has set
another example of broad gauge policy
in giving the stranger within her gates a
chance to view 23 miles of her attractions
and points of interests for five cents.
That is arate that for mileage alone can-
not be approached in the whole world. It
would be a remarkable thing to ride along
that many miles of prairie for that price,
but when one can ride that distance
through the metropolis of America for a
nickel, it is something to be classified in
the world’s wonders. The trip begins at
155th Street and Eighth Avenue and
makes a circuit of Manhattan Island by
way of the Battery.——Advertiser.
James Gordon Bennett will soon be
back inNcw York. Although the famous
owner of the New York Herald has a
perfectly appointed private editorial room
in his new building, he has appeared in
it, I think, but once or twice, and that a
year ago. Yet few editors know the inner
workings of his newspaper more thor-
oughly. Mr. Bennett may be at Baden
Baden, or Monaco, or Paris, or Prague,
but he keeps in touch with his paper by
making the cables under the ocean hum.
Mr. Bennett looks more like his famous
father than he once (lid. There is gray in
his hair and mustache, and his features
have resolved into the strong lines that
marked the elder Bennett’s features.
Altogether, the Bennett of to-day looks a
much better man than he did fifteen
years ago. For some reason he avoids
New York and Newport. A good many
years ago he set‘ a fast pace for the young
bloods in both places—N. Y. World.
The testimony brought out by the Lex-
ow investigation may well startle a con»
munity long accustomed to sensations
from this source. In all the hearings
before the committee there has beenno
scene more dramatic, no revelation more
startling or damning, than when Captain
Creeden,in full uniform, displaying the
insignia of thirty years’ service, was
moved to confess, with deep feeling and
reluctance, that he had paid a bribe of
fifteen thousand dollars'for the captaincy
he now holds, and that he gave this with
the understanding and intention that it
was to go to the Commissioner who ap-
pointed him and who now by the ap-
pointmcnt of a Tammany Mayor sits as
a criminal magistrate on the bench of
one of the city’s police courts. This
extraordinary confession was followed
and corroborated by the reluctant con-
fession of the gO-betweeu, a political
heeler and saloon keeper, who paid over
the bribe money and secured the appoint-
ment—N. Y. Sun.

THE TALK or commit
A ROUSING TESTIMONIAL TO DR.
PARKHURST BY PROMINENT MEN.
Fuchs: of a Star Witness or the Lexow
Committee to Europe. 825.000 Said to
Have Been Furnished by the Police.
Features of the $350,000 Robbery.
Mrs. Augusta Thurow, who formerly
kept the establishment at '23 Second
Avenue, and whose sensational testimony
before the Lexow Committee resulted in
the dismissal of one police captain, five
sergeants and two Wardmen from the
.force, has gone to Europe. All of these
former policemen have been indicted by
the Grand Jury on the strength of Mrs.
Thurow’s testimony, and it was on her
testimony that reliance was placed to
convict the indicted men. \Vhat is in-
teresting in connection with her disap-
pearance is the rumor that the men
under indictment made up a. purse of
$25,000 to defeat their conviction, and
that a good part of that amount went to
Mrs. Thurow to insure her absence from
this country for a long time.
The robbery of the Shoe and Leather
Bank by a. trusted bookkeeper and an
accomplice continues to stir banking and
police circles. There are many queer
facts in connection with the theft. The
officers of the bank accuse a man named
Frederick Baker of stealing the sum of
$354,000 by drawing it over the paying
teller’s desk in checks in sums of from
$200 to e400 ativarious and frequent times
during the past eight years. The fact
that this man came several times a week
and drew sums of from $200 to 8400, it is
asserted, was a. matter of common note,
so common that the bank employees
knew him as the $200 man.’ Now, it is
ridiculous to suppose that if Baker went
so often to the bank to draw checks as to
be known as the $200 man that other
bank officers would not have noticed it.
They would certainly have seen the man
drawing check after check, and should
have noted that he paid nothing in. This
looks queer. There is only one logical
way to account for the withdrawal of so
large an amount, to my mind, and that
is that several men drew the money on
the checks, thus allaying the suspicions
of the tellers and the bank officers. Then
this self-confessed thief, Seely, charged
it all up to Baker’s account. The fact
remains, however, that Baker committed
suicide as soon as the robbery became
— publicly known.
More than five hundred men recently
attended the banquet- given Dr. Charles
H. Parkhurst by the City ,Vigilance
League of which he is the founder.
Among them were men who are foremost
among those in the city. Women came
and sat in the gallery and applauded,
even cheeredywith the men. There was
a deep-seated earnestness and enthusiasm.
It was, as Dr. Parkhurst said in what was
perhaps the most remarkable speech he
has ever made in this city, one of the
finest gatherings of men that had come
together in New York for many years.
When Dr. Parkhurst arose there was a
mighty outburst. Cheers were given
again and again. Every man was on his
feet lending his voice. Bishop Potter
cheered decorously. Father Ducey shout-
ed with the enthusiasm of a boy. After
bowing his acknowledgements to the
cheering diners he said in part: ,“I cannot
look upon such a. throng of men, realiz-
‘ing that every fibre of unqualified earn-
estness and sincerity, and feel any par.
ticular anxiety for the future of New
York city. \Ve have to remember, how—
ever, that it is one thing to win a victory
and it is quite another thing and a far
more difficult thing wisely and concert
edly to utilize that victory. Our future
is in the hands of God and in our own.
Many persons do not fully understand
just what this league stands for. Some of
you allied yourselves with us when it was
considered neither reputable nor respect-
able to be associated with myself. It- is
funny now, but it was not funny then.
You and I, young friends, are not in this
business for tho loaves and fishes, and let
me tell you that therein lies ninety-nine-
one—hundreths of our power. We do not
care a rap for ourselves. But do you
realize that more than 100,000 men inside
this city believed on Nov. 6 in the muni-
cipal government represented by such
men as Divver, Sheehan and dirty Koch?
IVe must not forget the strength that lies
in 100,000 men, and you and I must go to
work to help convert them, and I believe
that if our campaign had lasted three
weeks longer we would have added to our
majority against Tammany by 20,000.
Bishop Potter followed Dr. Parkhurst.
“My brother, whose services to this city
and to the country have been so large, has
often been challenged and criticised be«
cause he was supposed to have stepped
outside hls vocation,” he began. “I want
to say, with all my heart, from the first
to the last he held himself rigidly within
its dominion. N 0 word that he has ever
spoken, no act that he has ever done, is
inconsistent with his ofl‘ice and ordination
as a minister of Jesus Christ.” This,
coming from one of the highest digni-
taries of one of the most conservative
churches in the city, was greeted with a
tremendous outburst of applause. “If we
want justification of the course of our
good brother here, we have it in the early
John the Baptist, of whom he is the true
successor,” the Bishop went on. “Let us
hope that the heroism and prophetic fore<
signt with which God [has crowned him
will make us willing always to follow his
lead.”
Dr. Par-khurst chatted with General
Horace Porter, who presided, while
Charles Stewart Smith found a topic
which interested Bishop Potter, who
wore his clerical black waistcoat. On
the end Dr. Lyman Abbott and Chancel-
lor McCracken talked cheerfully. On
the other side of General Porter was
Mayor Schieren, who conversed with Mr.
Choate when he wasn’t talking to Father
Ducey, in whom James C. Carter was
also much interested. Everett P. Wheeler
was at the end of the table. The gallery
was filled with well-dressed women. In
their centre Mrs. Parkhurst was recog-
nized. There was a shout. Then every
man stood up and turned his face to-
wards the balcony, and they gave three
good cheers for Mrs. Parkhurst, calling
her name. She stood up, smiling and
happy and self - possessed, and waved
back her thanks with her fluttering
handkerchief. ROGER LEWIS-

Ada Rehan is going upon the road.
Ada is not handsome but she is a good
actress, and has been obscured from
American public gaze for a year or two,
during which time she has played in Lon—
don, and left us to be consoled by an efli-
gy of herself in cold metal,which has been
traversing the States as an advertisement
for enterprising dry goods houses. The
Montana statue of silver has retired now
that the model is here. “Twelfth Night”
was staged at Daly’s Metropolitan The-
atre, Feb. 22, 1893, and was extremely suc—
cessful. Since then London and its big-
wigs set the .seal of their approval upon
the Daly production and now it is back
for a temporary run.
“' ‘welfth Night” never had a. more
lovely or poetic setting. The exquisite
scenery was never gaudy, but the color-
ing was a feast to the eye, and every de-
tail was the perfection of good taste. The
sea coast of Illyria, the Duke’s palace,
Olivia’s house, and Olivia’s garden by
the lake, gave pleasure to every lover of
art, and the musical features were as de.
lightful as ever. It is no use saying that.

setting; that the Bard of Avon speaks for
himself. People read their Shakespeares
to—day and stay away from the theatres
that interprets the works of the master,
unless the play be presented with a lavish
beauty like that which characterizes this
“Twelfth Night.” Miss Rehan was en-
thusiastically welcomed when she made
her appearance on the stage as Viola.
Her art has not changed; her methods
are the same as of yore: her voice is as
musical, her presence as magnetic. The
Chicagoan who dubbed her “the Chrysan-
themum of dramatic art” was not
wrong. James Lewis was the Sir Toby
Belch; Miss Carlisle, Olivia; Miss Percy
Haswell, Maria; Herbert Gresham, Ag-
uecheek; Mr. Carlisle, Orsino, and Henry
E. Dixey, Malvolio.
Mr. Charles Frohman hit upon a novel
plan of satisfying the importunities of a
number of friends when he produced
“The Masqueraders.” Nearly all the
theatrical managers have innumerable
applications from acquaintances and
friends who wish to put aspiring young
women on the stage. In New York the
opportunity to act in a first-class theatre
is almost entirely a question of influence
with the manager. There are no conser-
vatories or schools from which young
women are regularly graduated to the
stage, and the difficulty is to secure the
ear of a manager and force him to set
aside some tried and experienced actress
in favor of a newcomer. Dramatic aspi-
rants who have been recommended by
prominent personages, from Senators of
the United States to Police Commission-
ers in Mulberry Street, have been on Mr.
Frohman’s list for two years. In “The
Masqueraders” are a number of scenes
which call for the appearance of women
who are supposed to be of high social
position. Instead of hiring "super-s” for
these parts Mr. Frohman bunched all
the dramatic aspirants and sent them on
the stage to serve as a background for ’
the play. Many of the girls are from
prominent’families socially in Louisville,
Chicago, \Vashington, Cincinnati and
other cities, and they have all been ac-
customed to well to do surroundings and
know how to Wear good clothes. An as-
tonishing amount of money was expended
on their costumes, and the result is al-
together unusual and thoroughly suc-
cessful. Besides, they are all on the
stage at last.
The movement against indecent pos—
ters and photographs advertising nude
actresses is extending from city to city,
and the managers of such shows find
that their abominable but costly pict-
ures are often prohibited by the authori-
ties. Every self—respecting person con‘
nected with theatricals will rejoice in
the success of this crusade.
Much attention is commanded, natu.
rally, by the new plays of the week‘
“The Masqueraders” at the Empire, “To
Nemesis” at the Star, and “The Cotton
King” at the Academy of Music, but the
older pieces are doing well too. These
continuances are “Too Much Johnson”
at the Standard, “The Manxman” at the
American, “Prince Ananias” at the
Broadway, “Rob Boy.” at the Herald
Square “The Flams” at the Bijou, “The
New Woman” at Palmer’s, “Twelfth
Night” at Daly’s, “A Woman’s Si-
lence” at the Lyceum, “Jacinta” at the
Fifth Avenue, “A Milk White Flag” at
Hoyt’s, “Little Christopher” at the

Fourteenth Street Theatre.
