New York Bank*
Will Stabilize
Stock Market
Banker Predicts Failures Are
at an End as Far as Ex
change Is Concerned.
New York, June 22.—Wall street,
shaken to the depths by the string of
failures, and the resultant loss of
public confidence which followed dis
closures of widespread bucketing of
customers’ orders, breathed its first
long breath In a week today, when
powerful banking Interests stepped
Into the breach to stabilize the mar
ket.
While the banking support was con
fined to brokerage houses holding
membership in the New York stock
exchange, the strength infused Into
that market carried prices up on both
the consolidated and the curb ex
changes, and a marked spirit of op
timism prevailed. The rushing to
cover by shorts aided in the strength
ening process.
Exchange Is Settled.
A prominent financier, associated
I with one of the largest banks In the
street, said he believed It was "safe
to say the unsettlement In the broker
age situation Is at an end as far as
New York stock exchange houses are
concerned.
One of the most interesting develop
ments of the day to observers was a
conference of Seymour Cromwell,
president of the New York stock ex
change, with members of the firm of
J. P. Morgan & Co. None of
the conferees would discuss what
happened, but Mr. Cromwell departed
cheerfully for a week-end trip out of
the city a short time later.
Confirmation was obtained of re
ports, that there had been a confer
ence of large banking interests to de
vise a means of stabilizing the sit
uation, hut Just what measures were
taken could not he learned. Whether
a pool had been formed to support
the market and save brokers from
disastrous runs like that which over
came the stock exchange houses of
Knauthe, Nachod & Kuhne and
Zimmerman & Forshay, was not
stated.
Sllkworth to Resign.
The hanker, who consented to talk
incognito, said he would not pred.ct
that there would be no more failures
in the street, bijt that he believed it
was safe to predict that there would
he no more failures of stock exchange
firms.
Conditions on the consolidated ex
change also appeared much brighter
today, partly as a result of the an
nouncement yesterday that W. S. Silk
worth, exchange president, who had
been connected unpleasantly with
firms that have failed, had decided
to resign and that the exchange would
be thoroughly reorganized unde,- a
new president, Lawrence Tweedy,
present vice president of the consoli
dated. The reorganization apparent
ly started today, with the expulsion
from membership of P. G. Stamm of
1. G. Stamm & Co., who was alleged
to have failed to appear before the
board of governors yesterday to an
swer to a charge of fictitious trading.

The business man Invests his
money where he believes It will do
the most work for him; where It will
get She best results.
Those who support charities en
deavor to follow this principle also.
That, no doubt, in one reason why
The Omaha Bee Free Milk and Ice
fund has received such liberal support
so many summers.
The Free Milk and Ice fund is an
established Institution. It is conduct
ed without charge, and every penny
contributed to It is used to buy milk
and ice for babies who otherwise
might perish.
Babies cannot choose their homes,
and the facts are there are many
poverty stricken homes in Omaha
where babies would die but for the
aid this fund brings them. The
fierce, heartless heat now enveloping
the city is one of the gretest enemies
these babies ever will face. The Via
itlng Nurse association Is straining i
every effort to administer the cool,
sweet milk purchased by the fund.
Death Is stalking the precious child
life in the poorer homes of Omaha,
but the Free Milk and Ice fund and
those who support it stand as a bar
rier against him. There is a crisis
now, and more contributions are
needed.

CHAPTER VIII.
I. /
May 12. 1898.
Two plump ladles with large busts
and very small waists were sitting in
the salon of the Allen apartment
waiting for the mistress of the house.
They wore very tight-fitting dresses
pf excellent silk, obviously not new,
obviously made by the sort of “little
dressmaker" who goes from house to
house. Their shoes were stout and
clumsy, their hats somewhat heavy
in line, their gloves exquisitely fitting,
perfectly fresh, made of the finest
grained leather. Although the sky
was blue, each lady carried a small
silk umbrella of the vefy best qual
ity, tightly rolled with a masterly
smoothness, as smoothly tubular as
the day It was bought.
The two women held their crully
corseted bodies very erect, and sat
squarely on the.r chairs, both feet
on the floor, their knees close to
gether, their backbones very straight.
Under the brims of their heavy, much
ornamented hats, their fresh, healthy
faces wore an expression of perfect
stability. They knew that they pro
duced exactly the impression they
meant to produce, and that they
looked exactly like what they were.
From every inch of them was pro
claimed the fact that they were fine
housekeepers and economical mana
gers of their husband's incomes, that
they were of the well-to-do borgeois e
and proud of it, as of everything
else they were and did. They looked
out on their lives and found them
go. d In every detail, from their slight
ly and purposely behind the-fashion
dresses to their stout shoes, evidence
of their respectability, from their fixed
ideas to their excellent gloves.
They glanced about them now, keen
ly, with the penetrating survey of
the professional good housekeeper.
ana found much to comment on.
' "How strange to have no lace cur
tains over the windows, only the
heavy ones at the side. Why, peo
ple outside must be able to look right
in! Do you suppose they have taken
them out to be washed? Or don t
they know about curtains in Amer
ica ?'•
They murmured their remarks In
a low tone, keeping a weather ear
cocked to the hail.
"That wallpaper is disgraceful It
was on when the ChSipentlers lived
here."
"M. I.apagorry had expected, you
know, of course, to do this apart
ment over after the Charpentiers
moved out. But these new people
never made a single comment, or
complaint. Just accepted It."
"I daresay they are used to log
cabins at home, with Indians at the
door "
"Oh, no. Madame Gamier, my Henri
says that the Indians are quite civil
ized In America now "
Madame Garn.er frowned slightly at
the mention of Henri
The ather woman went on. "Ap
parently they thought It w-as all right
to have faded paper and those awful
old curtains. M. Bapagorry was so
astonished he almost fell over back
ward And when he saw they didn't
find fault with anything, h» asked a
higher rent, ever so much higher
than the Charpentiers had paid, and
they took that too without a word.
1'euple say M. Bapagorrv can't sleep
nights now because he didn't ask
more."
Madame Gamier observed, as one
mentioning an obvious fact. "Oh. well,
Madame Fortier, he will, of course,
next time "
Madame Fortier sin- nothing to
smile at in this. "Yes, of course,"
she said seriously.
Madame Gamier now said. "They
must be very rich. Where is It they
are from, Buenos Afres?"
"Oh, no, Madame Gamier. I think
It is somewhere in North America.
My Hnnri says that . .
Madame Gamier broke in. irritated,
to say with suppressed heat. "Oh.
North America or South America,
what's the difference? They are all
'orelgners. and who knows what
strange Immoral Ideas they have?
They don't come to mass, you know
It wouldn't surprise me to learn that
the man Is a Free Mason I wjsh M.
Gamier had not asked me to call on
them.”
The other shrugged her shoulders
resignedly. "Yes, It's a very strange
thing to do, make the first call, and
on people you know nothing about
But M. Fortier says the man. M. Al
len, is very Important in a business
way. and he specially asked all the
business men to have their wsl-'s
call on his wife And, of rigirse,
anything M. Fortier thinks may be
good for his business . .
Steps were heard In the hail.
They composed their faces, and
turned towards the door The Amer
lean lady now came in. and they
rose to greet her. They were ex
tiemely corded, a competitive friend
lines* In their manner.
They went down tbs well-polished
oaken sta'rs In silence, each holding
up her long heavy sklr" SfIU» one
gloved hand ,1nd letting the other
rest on tlie railing. At the bottom,
each with nn automatic gesture like
a reflex action, looking at the palm
of her glove to see if It had been
milled by the railing, and with a siml
lar action, shook their head* disap
provingly. although there was not
a grain of dust on the smooth, tight
ly stretched, pale kid
They ahonk out the trains of their
skirts and swept Into the street, con
scions of the pouncing Inspection of
Anna Etrhe rjtary, gaging at them
from the loge of the couriers*- sod
proudly aware that thfr* u ie nothing
to criticize in stiv detail of their hacks
or anywhere else shout them. They
turned to the left and began to climb
the steep street which led towards
the cathedral. Madame Fortier re
marked presently, "Very hot fast*,
that dress, like an actress All that
white silk and lace. And slippers
like a dancing girl's l( must be
she never puls her hands to anything
In the house"
"No. she doesn't." returned the
other d sappmvingly. "My Marguerite
meets her Jeanne every morning at
market, she says that Jeanne says
the A
thing about the house, and doesn't
even verify her accounts. You can
Just Imagine what Joanns Is getting
out of II It quite upsets Marguerite,
and I have to he specially careful
with my own accounts. Everybody
near them Is gelling a rake-off on
everything." She made these revela
tions with a satisfled look as Chough
th« words had a pleasant taste In her
mouth.
Madame Fortier's comment was
mode with the accent of mature.
Worldly experience, "Mark my werds,
money spent In a loose careless way
like tnut must htlve her-h ill come by.
That's the way disreputable women
spend money."
They were enjoying the conversn
llun so much that their faces looked
quite sunny and bright. The other
shook her head forebodingly. There
was a silence as they climbed stead
ily up the steep, narrow, stone flagged
street.
Then Madame Garnler remarked,
‘‘The little girl Is quite pretty, though
so mannerless.”
"Her dress was covered with grease
spots, and had a hook off the hack,"
reported Madame Fortier.
"X didn’t see but three grease
spots," demurred Madame Garnler,
“and she really has lovely eyes and
hair."
“How badly that woman speaks
French. Without the little girl to
Interpret, It would actually have been
hard to know what she was saying.
Strange they don't know French bet
ter. But perhaps they don't have
regular schools like ours."
Madame Garnler made no answer to
this conjecture, but asked, looking
sideways at her neighbor, "Shall you
ask them to dinner?"
Madame Fortier all but groaned,
and said in a martyr's tone, “Oh, 1
suppose so, for Henri's sake."
The other digested this thrust in
silence, and then changed the sub
ject. “What was that she was saying
about De Maupassant? Was she quot
ing him, to us? What d.d she take
us for?"
“Yes, she didn't realize what we
might think of her. It was that in
decent Boule-de-3uif, too. But she
knows so little French most likely
she didn't understand what It was
all about."
“Have you read that?” asked Mad
ame Gamier.
“Yes, I thought it my duty to. as
a mother, to know what it is. But
I burned the book, and you may be
sure I don't go around letting every
body know I've read It. Did you find
her pretty?"
Madame Gamier answered oblique
ly. but quite understandably. "I dare
say a man would think so. I couldn’t
think of anything but her manners.
How she lolled in her chair, and
crossed her legs. I wouldn't want
my Gabrielle to see her. And to my
eyes she had a faded look. Queer,
her being so fair. I don't see any
trace of Indian blood. I thought ail
Americans had Indian blood.”
"Oh, no. Madame Garnler, my Hen
ri says that. . . ."
Madame Garnler made a gesture of
one thoroughly out of pat ence with
Henri, and ended the conversation
abruptly, “Oh, here we are at the
corner. I must turn down here. Good
day, Madame Fortier.”
