About IhU lima Zndoch Pratt of Greene county , Now York , Invited Gould to Join him In establishing n tannery In l-iUzernii county , 1'ou n sylvan I u. This invitation was accepted nnd the lanuorv was built and put in operation by Iho llrm of Pratt it Gould. . Tno partners did not long ngro < 3 , and Goulil borrowed the money to buy Pratt , out. Whllo In this busi ness UJUid often xvont to Now York to sell the product of his tannery , und this rather disposes of the preliy story which has boon current for many years that his llrst aopoar- anco in Now York was to cndoavoi' to soil n nienuetrnn of hU own Invention , Mr. Gould sold fcut the millro tannery nnd his Hi/lit to the hemilocK growths of the vicinity soon nftor reaching the ngo of 21 , und Just In iho nick of time , lee , for in a few weeks came thop.ii.loof 13.17. Even thus curly he had developed his maxim lhat the tlmu to buy is Just niter n crushing punle1 , nud with that principle fixed In his mind ho sought iho cro.it metropolis with ull his means in ready rash. In his business visits to Now york Mr. Gould had mada tlio 110- ( Ittaintanco of n well-tO'do loatnor merchant nameel Miller. Now , when ho oamo to the city to make It his homo , this merchant took him int o his family as n boarder. There was u daugter Miss Hulon Diy Mlllor aim be tween her and Gould an affection sprang tin Which resulted In marriage whoa Gould was nbout ofago. Ills first Itnllroad Deal. His father lii-law , Mr. Mlllor , had shares in a railro.id from Rutland in Vermont to some other uolnt. The shares paid no divi dends uud ho asked hi * young son-in-law to look Into the matter and soil the shares. Gould did loo-k into thu matter but ho did not soil the shares ; instead of that ho bought all he could as well as the bonds , nil nt 10 cants on the dollar , lie now went lute the directory of the road and became the presi dent. The stock und bonds both advanced iu price und out of tbU venture ho made n fortune. Sneaking of tills thirly years later , when ho was a witness before the Pa cific railway commission , Mr. Gould said : "I have been all my life dealing In railroads thai Is , since I was ot ace ami always in futures. The first rallroaa bonds I over had 1 bought ut 10 cents Rutland & Wash ington and not onlv my bonds became good , but I sold m.v stock out at ? 1 'J3.1' Though so young , hn wt s now asuecessful man and soon started business ns n broker in Now York on his own account. But ho later forinod a partnership nnd controlled the affaits ot tbo iirm ot. Smith , Gould & Martin. Mr. Gould has never boon a speculator in stocks is the sense in which that term is usually understood. Ho has , howtivor , un questionably often aslonlshod the boldest operators by his notion In this way. Nearly always such operations have boon subslulary to bomo largo campaign ho was carrying out. Upon ono occasion , when hi < adversaries seemed to bo getting the Dotler of him In every movov they boasted that they were master * ana that flio great man was totter ing previous to his fall. It bccatno apparent to Mr. Gould lhat these men iroro being be lieved , not only by the public , but by iho bankers loo. Ho calmly ordered his general man of ail work , Moroslni , to go to the safely deposit vault and bring his securities. Before dispatching Morosini ho in vited the \Vall street reporters aud half a do/.en bankers to come and see for ttiom- selves whether ho ' 'baa gone broke. " Moro slni , a gigantic Italian who fought with Garibaldi , bad to mnlto several trips before ho could fetch all tlio Wealth. At last it was nil thcro nnd spread out for Inspection. IThero were ? j3,000.000 of stocks und bonds In lace value , unit they were of that charac ter which money lenders call gilt odgnd. Ho had in addition S2J,000,000 worth of lower grade stocks. Mr. Gould confessed that ho had boon a borrower , but thu oanles hold collaterals for ull his loans. His tactics surprised bis oopo- nenls. It was so foreign from anything Ibis socrelivo man had overdone baforo that they could not understand It. But none of thorn believed that Mr. Gould was bankrupt. This was about 1SSU. Iio must bavo had at least SrO.OOU.OOO then. His lirst vpiiluro In ttut- land & Washington was exactly on the lines which ho has pursued profitably for many years. His next essay In railroading , however , was on a large scale , and it at tracted to him tbo widest nosHlblo public attention. Bvor since then ho has boon one of the most notable actors in American affairs. How Iio Captured tlio Rrlr. It was in the oanturo and administration of Iho uftalrs of iho Eno Uallway company lhat wo llrst see him in company with the picturesque Jim Fisk and Daniel Drew. It was in tins affair that ho lied to Jersey City with a priutlng press and rendered old Com- modora Vandorbllt impotent , for all his mil lions. It was as nn oftlcor of Ibis company that ho participated in thu speculations in gold which precipitated the great llnnncial crisis known ns "Blade Friday. " When Commodore Vandcrbilt tried to got control of llio stock of Iho com pan v Fisk , Gould uud Daniel Draw Iho famous Brio Iriumviralo- cnlmly ordered moro slock and bonds lo be printed , and the supply was simply Inex haustible. His favorite ) method was to buy two 01 thrco unprolltablo properties nt very low prices , unite them into ono larger company , and upon iho consolidated properly issue " bouas and stock and offer It"to tbo public , Mr , Gould stnrtod n company which bocni : paralleling the lines between largo olllos ol the Western Union and cutting rates. The pi'olits of the big ccmnnny were sorloush Impaired ana the stock declined In the mar kot. Suddenly It was announced that Goulu had acquired u controlling Interest ii Western Union. The two companies won consolidated nnd Gould has retained control Ills favorite ) properties scorn to bo Wcstcn Union and Missouri Paclllc. His fortune I estimated at unvwhero from one to two bun drud millions of dollars , It was whllo ho controlled tbo Wabasl system lhat some inora timid assoclati whllo dlscusslntr nn issue of bonds asked "Don't you think you nro Issuing moro bond than the property will stand 1" "That may bo , " bo replied , "but th American people are mighty fond of bonds.1 When Jav Gould found the wheel ot fet tur.o fust locked , and vlth himself on tor ho had built for himself ono of the mua wonderful straw yachts the world has eye seen , llo announced that ho would hay nothing moro to do with speculation or th acquiring of now properties , tut would dc vote the rest of his time to taking care c it what hn already had and to regaining hi ar health , which was somewhat impaired His yacht wus built and he used It as o.id lorryboat between Nuw York atri Irvini id ton , where for many years ho owned n mne Jd us tilllcont country seat , Tuo condition of bin Iness affairs did not permit bun to go fi from the olllees whore ho directed the uffnli c- lit of hU Immense proportion. Unquestionably l111 litl ! however , ho did withdraw from any of thi 111 speculation which had sometimes occuplc him. n.of HU Ultmiiprurunuii I'rpinVull Street , < y The llrm of brokers , W. E.

U .Is . o luces removed to weru now moro spucioi quarters In the Western Union building , at : ok since then , except when ono of his vnnoi Oi or properties 1ms been attacked , Wall sue at has not luiowu him as a sneculator. Sim iu IbJl or 1SS3 Gould has found enough to do of look uftur the vast properties which by tli time ho had acquired. lo Whenever Mr. Gould acquired a control lli u pronorty ho always went actively Into I III rn management , llo did not always take tl jr-nUenoy , but ho olwuys dictated wl htiould bo the directors und which dirocto nuuld constitute tbo cxcoativn commute Tiir.so eonmilttoob In Mr. Gould's companl have always been most important lu tl IV- administration of affairs , us they ha IVnd always hud the full powers of any board of directors , and they have usually been coi s I posnel of men very near to Mr , Gould ai all men whom he could btiinmon together at momuut's uotle'o. By thu development I\M irmdo himself absolute master of what ever ho cured to bo. From 133-4 to thU lmo some of the men most honored lullltmnclnl and commercial circles tmVo sat li | l\jn \ boards ot directors of companies controlled bv Gould , and ho has been In the directories of many of the richest and most conservative tlnnnriil Institutions In Now York , In the employment ot assis tants ho has worked on ono invariable ) prin ciple. Ho has fnrfilo.vcd men wbo woio sullied in that bijintti where ho tie-oil en the particular sorvlctroaih was qualified to clvo. It bas therefore happened tbnt ho hn * kept nbout him to n great extent the sanjo nion , both In hn nillwiiya nnd telegraph compa nies , for runny ypnv/i , < nnd it U the general impression th.it ho has asked nothing more than skill and llMUty from them while re warding one-h llacratly In such proportion ns ho thought was proper nnd deserved. A Quint llumn 1.1 Co. Mr. Jny Gould , from the time ho married Helen Day Miller , more thnn thirty years ngo , until now. hits tried sincerely to keep hit family affairs from public observation. It is true that his family has always been ( inlet , unobtrusive and bomc-lovltic , nnd therefore thorn has bean ho good excuse lo drag Its affairs before public sight , In stature Mr. Gould wu- < short , not moro thnn live feel live ittuhcs In height , nud ho was slight , not weighing moro than 125 pounds. Ho was n very dark man nnd there was nothing whatever lu Ills appearance to catcher or detain attention. Mr. Gould's marriage was n love match and thn affectionate rela- ttor , lasted till Mrs. Gould died In 1SSS. Neither Mr. or Mrs. Gould appeared over to have hud ntiy social nsplr.illous that is , aspirations to move und shine In that society of rich peonlo nmong whom the Asters uud Vundcruilts are pro-eminent. It seems cor tnln that if they did nave such ambitions they never tried to crntlfy thorn , for the doors open very easily tu gnlilon kovs , and the Goulds could have nffordod a whole bunch ot such uuya any time these many yours.

The family occupied the country spat at Irvington ouch summer Irom the beginning of Jttio : till late in October. For the'trip to and fro Mr. Gould used bis fust steam yacnt the Atalanla. The house at Irvlngton U largo and com modious nnd was evidently built with every regard for summertime comfort and unpre tending homo life. The glory of iho pluco is thu grceiihouaos , of which there tire seven teen. In those there is n wonderful colloo tlon of rare nnd beautiful plants.

His eldest daughter , Miss Helen Miller Gould , has had charge of the house since luo death of her motlmr , Tnc oldest son , Uoorgo , T.

Ho has since 1SS3 been his father's business associate and most tntimctto friend. Ha married Miss E'lith ' Ifingdon of Daly's thea ter. She has retired from the theater and is the mother of two sons. George Gould is ns regular in his business habits ns the poorest clerk in the smallest bank in the city , and bo has , to a very great extent , overcome the prejudice- the older men who have been assoclutad in his father's companies. They did not like that so youne n'chap should bo put on boards of direction nnd made the president of largej corporations. His father for many years sceiuied to have implicit confidence in his capacity and judgment. The second sou , Kdwiu Gould , has also ' pone into buslness'aml has been placed on several boards. He , " too , is said to hove great business capacity ami to have more than once guthcredin monov from veteran traders in .Wall streat. The third sou , Howard , and thoj iccopd daughter , Annie , are still at school ! * Whatever also may hen-after be said of Mr. Gould , itcan never bo said that he was not a faithful and affectionate husband nnd a devoted nnd iippreclativo father.

Little groups of clerks and heads of depart ment ! gathered in the oRlccs of the system and discussed the demise of the railroad king and the effect his death would have upon the property of which they were at taches. The opinions were us vnrtcd as there were men to utter them.Vhilo work was resumed , it was in a rather perfunctory manner. The hearts of the worltors wot'c olsowhora seemingly , und they were wonder ing what changes would occur and in wbal manner they would vitally affect these whc are now "clothed with authority.

While ho always said I bo was purely a speculator , still he was vital interested In the Improvement ot tha * ys- torn , and I know ho had dreams of some day seeing thu railroad fruo of tha government debt which now hnngi over it , Ho was n many-shied man , nnd particularly remark- nblo In his prccoptions of the resources that wo'o possible to bring to the road , llo nlwnvn favored n policy that would load to Increased production , and favored nil schemes to advertise , the territory traversed by the system1 , llo wni ono of the Keenest inon I ever know , nnd I believe will bo succeodeet by n son , Ocorgo Uould , who Knew his father's mind bolter than nny ono. Although n young mm ho Is stircwel nnd conservative , and promises to bo much Ilkn his famous father , t have no tioubt that the method of Mr. Gould's life was carried into his death nnd his affairs will be found lu perfect con dition , known to the loiter bv the voune man who must carry on the work of the dean. " Know Him for Twrrnty Yi > : u-n. Mr. U. M , Morjinan , wno , next to Mr. H. ll. II.

Wlulo reticent lowurd strangers nnd very much averse to having himself paraded , iio was always con siderate of these who were In his employ nnd talked to the heads ot department with do- llehlful freedom , displaying u knowledge too which was wonderful. I have known Mr. Uould for twenty years and in th.it time ho has jot to show mo that ho was not ono of the remarkable men of his time. His do.ith will undoubtedly cause u llurrv In stocks , but will In nowise bring losses to botio lido holders. ( Only the < o who speculate on margins will feel tlio force of his death. George Uould , who will tin- doubtodlj succeed Ins father In the various businesses lu which ho was interested , has much the same mentnllty. Ho is caretul nnd not ovorconlldoiit nnd knowing bin father's ' methods will surely go on In tlio circor mapped out for him by his father. Of uotirso It is idle speculation to try to prognos ticate what will occur In Union Pacific clrclo3 , but 1 supuoio it's quite within Iho naluro of HiiniM for chnngci to occur nt the neixt nnnuul election.

This wm In n largo , measure th result of the earnest exposition made bv Evangelist MllU ot the need of agonizing prayer and the good it would UK when properly applied. Mr. Mills' ' remarks woronbly prefaced by singing. In faot Mr. Illllis ac\od as n sort of John the Unptlst , preparing the way with the good gospel hyintis for the coining of the preacher , "Ninety anil Nine , " and "Throw Out the Life Line , " going instead of the old original cxtiortation lo flee from Iho wrath to cotno. Ttiero was n tremendous Jam nt K < c petition hall and the paoplo scorned to have greater Interest than over In thei work. It was n great awnUentnir the spirit , not nlono nmong these who nro professedly believers In the gospel of Christ , but with those In whom the latent ilro of religion has smoldered so long tint Its existence might well bo questioned. Moro than 20J souls were brought to book. "And b-'lng In nn ngonv , llo pr.ivrd the mnro. " words from the KCHIP | | nccordlng to bt. Luke , was the text Irom which the preacher drew bis discourse. Kxcltoniont Is nn evidence of interest , snlJ Mt. Mills , and In religious ns we-'l ' an other matters people piovo the Interest then- have by their earnestness nnd uirony of soul. Some churches were so dead that It wojld bo urucltv to ask young Christians to unlto with thorn. What ihe Christian worl I needed wai n doop-r concern for the souls of tbo unsaved. There wus great potency In a tear , csucctollv tlio tear of an earnest man or woman. It was not strange that so many people dl.l not Join the church. It was strange that so many did Join , so cold nr.d unsympathetic were the churchos. In closing the speaker urged upon the professing Christians th.it they lane upon tholr hearts the responsibility of looltlng nftcr the salvation of thoao liftho nui'ilcnco who wcro i.ot already saved. An Invitation was extended to everybody to rcuinii : and tnka part in the alter meeting nnd nearly everybody accepted. And then uhilo thu audiuuco was waiting n hymn was sung , nud these of the nudlonco who had in their iniiids ueoplo they wanted prayer offered for were asked * onsu. Many , very inuuy , stood up , nnd nfto" n tou-miuuto talk on the value ol personal effort in the search for salvation , individual requests for prayer were announced as in order , and Iho blL'gcst prayer meeting ever held in Omaha wa cominoncad. Several hundred requests wcrj made in a very few moments. And fol lowing this camu the invitation to shako off the ways of sin nnd take up the lifo of u Christian. All over the hall they gel tin. men nud women , young , old and middle-aged , from door to choir , nn- nouncua their intention bv standing up then lo stand up lor the Savior over after. Brief prayor.s were offered , and then the work of gathorlntr the nnmes nnel addresses of these who had made profession of penitence was commenced , nnd 2iCi were taken. A brief special mooting for tlio con verts was held , nnd the audience was dis missed. Thorn will bo no mooting today at Exposi tion hell.
