NEW YOIIK , Jan. 10. [ Special Corros
pondonco. ] The enormous loeaoa o
William il. Vandoibllt are employing th
gtieaaora of Wall street to-day. Moat o
the figuring Is wild. But a certainty en
bo arrived ot In this matter.
It wan widely published a few month
pgo that the great shrinkage in the vain
ot Wall street securities had knocko
Mr. Jny Gonld out of not fir from $23 ,
000,000 a tremendously big Bum , i
must bo owned. Yet Mr. Yanderbllt 1
n richer man than Mr , Gould , and th
great bulk of his wealth has been nlwoy
In the enmo kind of securities as Mr
Gould'a railroad Blocks. True Mr
Vanderbilt was oharp enough t
soil n great block of Now Yor
Contra ! to n syndicate of Euro
pcan capitalists at $120 a share
price that looks high when compared wit
that of the first of this year , ' 85 , and h
was too wise when ho bought govcrnnicn
bonds to the vnluo of § 43,000,000 , yo
he , too , has suffered much from th
shrinkage , nnd luis lost much moro mono
in the last four years than Mr. Goulc
Vanderbilt was in 1881 , the period of th
highest Wall street prices , identified wit
moro raihoad properties than any othe
man on the continent. Ho had by lease
and consolidations effected a not-work o
system of roads that reached front Omnh
nnd other points beyond thd&lississipp
to the Atlantic seaboard , ira conncc
tions west of Chicago were intended t
bring bmincss the L.iko Shore and Noi
York Ccnfrnl. Nobody knows how nine
stock ho held in roads like the Chicago
Burlington & Quincy , Bock Island
Northwestern , Omaha , Illinois Ccn
tral , Chicago & Alton , and others , but a
ono tlmo or another ho had anug block
In them , and moat of all when they wor
booming along upward In Wall street in
1881. Ho had also stock In all the express
press companies and special freight com
panics , the parlor nnd alooplng-car com
pnnies , and in all the thousand and on
little companies that hang apon and ea
up the profit * of the big railway corpora
tions. Ho had a big block of Heading In
order that ho might usa Heading to figh
the Pcnnsylcanla railroad , and later on
lie took his almro in the Nickel Plate
road to crush Us competition with Lake
Shore. Thus , in 1881 , ho wai , boyoni
all qnoation , the richest man in America
With $43,000,000 In government bond
cs a nest egg , nnd with t least 700OQi
nharca of railway bond ? , the bulk o
yhich was paying him $8 a share a yen
n dividends , and with the express ant
car companies paying still greater profits
Vandorbllfc was indeed a veritable railway
king.

But Gnlteau's pistol rang out th
death-knoll of many n butincso projoc
and stopped the boom. Wall ttcoo
irlcoo have declined almost steadily from
; aat moment. Now York Central , the
Drldo of the Vandorbllts , is down from
[ 55 to 00 , Lake Shore has tumbled from
.35 to GO , Michigan Central from 130 ti
5 , Northwestern from 130 to 85 , anc
'ho rest In proportion. To Mr. Vander

nillions on millions. It is not possible
o express this leas accurately , for the
'oason ' that his vast holdings In various

OTIIEI : 1'LAOES OF LOSS.
Herein , it will bo observed , no notice
- inndo of the la'go number of such
locks as Omaha , Chicago , Burlington &
Quincy , Reading and others , of which
Mr. Vanderbilt ia known to have had
qnsidornblo holdings. Nor nro men-
ioned the various issues of railroad bonds
f nil the roads , eomo of which amount
3 moro in the aggregate of hia owner-
hip than the stock itself. Bonds of all
inda have suffered very much in AVnll
trcot , although not in thosamo proportion
us have stocks. If , therefore , Mr.
Vanderbilt has loat § 31,000,000 through
hrlnksgo of alx atocke , which by no
noaus comprise the bulk of his holders , s
ow much matt have boon tbo shrinkage
f his fortune nnd how vast must have
eon that fortune .before the shrinkage
egan ? Sixty millions will probably no
moro than cover his lots , aud ono hun
dred and fifty million could not have
boon too high a figure at which to have n
put the valun of his possessions that fatal

GOOLI8 ' CREATE ! ; SAGACITY.
It is doubtful whether , Mr. Gould ever
aaw the day when ho could call himself
worth100,000,000 although homusthave
had nearly that sum. There ia the dif
ference between the two , however , that
Gould came to Now York without n cent ,
nnd what ho has ho
has made and has pro
tected through his own exertions nnd a-
gaolty , while Vanderbilt Inheiltod hi )
fortune nnd aooma powerless to protect it
when hard times como on. Gould Is
quicker and sharper , and moro 'inlolloc-
'taol Vanderbilt has been bo no down
by rivals , His
competitors nt the moment -
mont have .tho bettor of him and all his
railways iuo at war with other roada.
Gould has a way of crushing out rivalry.
His railroads are comparatively unaffected
by competition , and in his telegraph pro
jects ho Is more than holding Ills own.
His sharp praoticea have in ado him many
enemies , but his credit is as good aa over ,
and ho bids .fair to como out as well aa
the beat. With iho leturu of flush limes
Gould . will reciprocate with _ a . brilliancy .

1HQII BETTINO.
What s'tipcndous gambling this Wall
cct j/aiuo is ! Nowhere , unices it bo in
the exchanges of some European capitals
arosuch gigantic risks taken. Thoio ar
many men in the game who have ou han
50,000 sliares of stock and who sco thci
fortunes grow or diminish $50,000 as
fluctuation of 1 per cent is noted. Goul
lias had 300,000 shares of Western Unio
Telegraph for several years. Every Urn
it moves ono point tip or down makes
difference of $300,000 to him. The da
of the Wall street panic last M y West
em Union dropped from 50 to 48 cigh
points in an hoar. To Mr. Gould tin
represented a loss of $2,400,000. Missom
Pacific dropped ten points at the sain
time. Mr. Gould has Jiot far froi
100,000 shares of it , and his loss in tha
stock was a cool million of dollars. II
had also Wabash and Texas , and Uni
Pacific , and other stocks thatmclied awa
with equal rapidity aud caused him a loa
of $1,500,000. It is plain , therefore
that Mr. Gould saw his fortune shniu
$5,000,000 that bright May day fore
noon. Yet ho apparently _ was n
unconcerned as though it ha
$500 , and ho begun casting aboi
to win it back with the sam
activity that the sport who has boon crl [
pled at faro figures how ho can make h ;
last § 10 hold out until the change In luc
comes. There are many days In Wa
street on which 500,000 shares of stoc
change hands , and tor which brokers giv
their chocks for the market price of th
stock. In booming times , when price
nro high , those shares average § 100
share , and the amount of money chang
Ing hands is the enormous sum of $50 ,
000,000. It was last summer that on th
biggest of the race days on the Coney
Island Jockey Club's course the pool
sellers bragged that they had handle
$100,000 , and mentioned the sum as bo
iug the largest over wagered in th
country at a TACO. Itwas a big sum , ye
In actlvo markets , there isn't ton minute
In business hours in Wall etreot who
that amount Is not wagered on the coura
of stocks. No wonder then that thor
are to bo soon In Wall street youn
brokers with fresh looking faces and pin
cheeks , but wnoao hair is literally tinge
with gray. In panics and crises whlc
como once In about so long the anxlot
of an ordinary lifetime Is crowded into
single day of bnsinoes , or n single nigh
of suspense , pending the turn things ar
to take In the morning.

PHILADELPHIA , January 18. The pic
turcequu marriage ceremony of th
Hebrew church which joined in hoi
wedlock the loving hearts of Albor
Roaenthal and Miss Silveroteinhad bee
performed in a largo hall at 0:30 : thi
evening and the wedding feast followo
Immediately afterwards. Then the ha !
was cleared , and preparations were mad
for a grand ball that was to complete th
celebration of the joyful event. Althong
Mr. Rcsonthal and Misi Sllvorstoin hac
Invited a number of their friends to th
wedding , the former found on goiu
over the list , If all accepted , the ha !
would bo but sparsely filled , so ho hi
upon the happy idea of admitting th
general public to a share in the festivi
ties at 25 cents each. This dclightfu
combination of business and pleasure re
suited most successfully , at least from a
financial point of view , for the news
spread about that tickets for iho Roaon
thal-Silverstoin nuptial ball were to b
had for 25 cents , and It drew a largo con
tlbgontof Hebrew devotees of torplachorc
of both sexc9 to the scene , and when thi
hour of 0 arrived , at which time the firs
dance was to commence upward of 20i
people had paid their money and entorec
upon the brilliant scene , and as the in
vited guests numbered another hundred
the hall was very comfortably filled. The
musicians , throe in number , tuned thei :
nstrumonts , and at 9 o'clock sharp thi
master of ceremonies , Mr. Isaac Elston , ,
Jr. , partner of the firm of Mandlobanm
& Elstein , gave the signal and the fits
igure on the programme , a dream ]
waltzo , was commenced. The danccri
were enjoying themselxos mightily when
; ho tall figure ot a man , in citizen's at
; ire , entered the doorway leading from
ho street. The ticket-seller stoppoc :
lim with the demand for 25 cents. The
low comer bent low and whispered into
.ho . doorkeopar'c oar. The functionary
started nnd turned pale aud the stranger
laescd in. The doorkeeper hesitated a
noment , rattled the cash In his pockets
md left the scene. Ten minutes later the
mil seem was empty , save for two
nen who were swopping up the floor.
iluiicians , guests , bridal parly and tha
; oneral public all had gone , but a few of
ho latter hung about outside , on the
idewalk and discussed the sudden
emanation of the affair. The mys-
erlous stranger was also gono. Ho had
oturned to the Nineteenth district
lolico station , rrhenco ho had como to m
ssna the edict of the chief of police that o
lie ball must cease at mice. The speech
o had made was short , sharp and
eclsive , and with but a few murmurs of
Isapproval the gathering broke up. It IE

special from Martlnsvlllo , Ind. , to the
Journal enya : ' 'Last Thursday morning a
young man In dndlah drcns , carrying a
gold-headed cano , got off the Indianapolis
train nt Martlnsviflo. IIo was accom-
panlod by n woll-drooBod young lady with
jot blnck hair , dark tkln and bright
black oyos. Tlio couple proceeded to n
boarding houoo where board was engaged
for n few weeks. The young man Inquired -
quired for the section boas on the rail *
road and was directed to him. Ho aaked
for work on the section aud presented
letters of recommendation from J. J.
Turner , superintendent of the road.
There was a vacancy on the section , and
ho was given work. Ho wont to the
depot , where ho deposited with the ngont
his silk hat and gold-headed cano , saying
that ho would probably not need tnom
for awhllo , Ilia dross , Intelligent bearIng -
Ing and his actions at once attracted at
tention.
13 IN DEAD KAUNEST.
no seemed very reserved , and refused
to give nny of his past hiatory more than
that ho had recently boon married to the
fair gonng lady who accompanied him.
Ho gave his uamo as Robinson , from
which It was Inferred that ho was the
here of the Into scandal from Troy , N.
Y. The Richmond student In the Pol
ytechnic institute. A reporter found
him breaking otono on a railroad , nnd
after reading him the article , Robinson
confessed that ho was the mau , and told
his story. Ho said ho wn * thrown into
association with a congenial young man
who led him astray , and in company with
him ho ' 'blow in" Bomoth'ng like § 2,000
In ono month. His father furnished
him nil the money ho desired , and ho
coon began to lead n fast lifo. About
this tlrao ho mot Fanny Fay and became
Infatuated , The story that she was a
woman of immoral character ho repudiat
ed . as falsa In every particular.
After ho mot her ho throw off all
bis bad habits. Ed spent uo
money unnecessarily after forming her
acquaintance , nnd the stoty that ho lav
ished silks and diamonds upon her was
not true. About this tlmo ho became
involved in several college difficulties ,
the result of his fast lifo , and his father
hearing of this wrote for him to como
home. . Ho saw expulsion staring him in
the face 1 ? ho did not go homo , and ho
could not for a moment think of leaving
the girl ho so dearly loved.
THE lUnKIAOE ANT ) T1IE FATHER'S WRATH ,
Ho determined to hiatry her , aud they
were accordingly married on December
4. The marriage ho intended to keep
secret from his father , BO ho know lie
would not approve of his marriage to a
lady without money. Ho succeeded In
keeping the marriage secret for several
weeks , but was finally entrapped by the
treachery of a former chum. On his
father being informed of the event he
telegraphed him asking him to forsake
the lady , which proposition was declined.
The father's next oft'or was for him to leave
his bride in Troy , como homo , and ho
would sot him up in business , and after
ho got settled doirn ho might bring his
wife homo. His brldo received no offers
to seek a quiet divorce , ao had been re
ported. On January 1 ho received a
telegram from his father that ho should
never have a dollar of Ills fortune. The
dispatch was not unexpected , and the
young man was determined to meet the
frowns of the world with a stout heart.
Ho and his bride Immediately departed
For Now York. On reaching that city
they found a dispatch waiting them from
the father. It was simply , "Oomo
homo. " The next morning , with his
brldo by hip aide , ho was on his way to
tils old homo to moot a father's wrath.
So reached Richmond after night , and ,
taking his wife to a hotel , Trent to his
Father's residence. He did not fool In-
lincd to enter , and rang the door boll.
ETo asked the servant who met him to
call hia father. The father was' called ,
and met his son with only a nod of recog
nition.
COUtD NOT ENTEH THE HOUSE.
The father informed him that ho could
not allow him to outer the house , but
hat ho would moot him at the hotel.
Phoy procseded to the hotel , and the
athcr proposed to him that ho forsake
lis wlfo aud como homo , in which case
le would make over to him half his for-
uno. The young man oroao , bade
ho old gentleman a last farewell , and
olned his wife. Ho was out of money ,
< 7 there was but ono alternative to fo ;
work. Taking from his collar the dia-
iiond pin ho wore , ho walked to the
icarast pawnbroker's shop aud secured a
mall sum of money on it. Ho could in
lever , for a moment , think of remaining
Richmond , and in the morning ho nnd
is wife started in quest of employ-
uont. The first town at which
icy stopped was Columbus , In-
loua , where they were mot a
ow ' hours after by the en-
aged father , who lind followed them. Ho
opeated his former offer , but the youii } , '
mn turned his back and walked oil' , and
icy saw him no moro. Ho then caino
ere and applied for work as stated. Ho \
ays ho docs not regret his course , though
seemed hard to Icavo a homo of luxury
nd go to breaking stone on a railroad at &
30 per month. lie
NOTHING CAN SKIItATB TIIESr.
There was nothing tliat could separate
im fioin the girl ho loved. In answer
a question as to whether or not ho
lought his 'father wou'd ' relent ho said
is father could go to the d 1 as far as
was concerned , and that ho intended
show the world that ho had moro sense
lian his father.

The rcmnrkftblo growth of Otnaho

great astonishment to thoao who pay n
ocoaalonol vlalt to thU growing city. The
development of the StopV Yards the
nocoBafty of the Bolt Llns Rood the
fmoly paved etroota the hundroda of now
rosluonoos nnd costly busluona blocks ,
with the population of onr olty moro than
doubled In the loat five years. All thlo
IB a great onrprlao to vlsltora and IB the
admiration of onr citizens. This rapid
growth , the bnBlnons activity , and the
many substantial Improvements madn n
lively demand for Omaha real estate , and
every Investor han made n hondeomo
profit.
Slnao the Wall Street paulo May ,
with tha Bnbsoqnont ory of hard tlmoa ,
there has boon loss demand from tipocnla-
torn , but a fall demand from Invontoro
Booking homos. This latter class are
taking advantage of low prices In build.
Ing material and are cocnrlng tholr homoo
at much loss cost than will bo possible o
year hence. Speculators , too , can bny
real odtaf 3 cheaper now and ought to tnko
advantuo of present prices fo * futnio

The next few yoaro promises grontoii
divolopmonts In Omaha than the paai
liv ) years , which have boon ns good an
wo could reasonably doatro. Now man-
ufftcturlng ostabllshmouta and largo job *
blng houses are added almost weekly , and
all add to the prosperity of Omaha.
There are many in Omaha and through *
but the Stpto , who have tholr money ID
the bauko drawing a nominal rate of
teroct , which , If judiciously Invoatod In
Omaha real et > tate , would bring thorn
much greater returns. Wo have raanjr
bargains which wo are confident wllJ
bring the purchsoer largo profits In Iho
near fatnro.
Wo have for sale the finest residence -
dence property in the north und
western parts of the city.

able prices ou Sherman avenue. 17th ,

The grading of Faraani , Califor-
aia and Davenport streets has made
accessible some of the finest and
cheapest residence property in tlie
I
city , and with the building of the
street car line out Farnam , the pro
perty in the western part of the city
will increase in valnn
We also have the agency for the
Syndicate and Stock Yards proper-
by in the south part of the city. The
developments made in this section
by the Stock Yards Company and
