Tli arrest of Whltaker Wright In Ne
iors lust wen gives a nearDy view or ono
of the greatest confidence men the young
century, or tha old one, for that matter,
has produced. He la a British product,
with tome American polish acquired dur
ing a residence of six years under the
shadows of the Philadelphia Stock exchange.
Wright out-Hooleyed Hoolejr In boosting a
skin gama with aristocratic backing. Tha
late Barney Barnato was not In his clas.
Compared with htm the American get-rlch-qulcker
diamond tontine, turf Investment,
horn co-operatives numerical bond. Iron
Hall and other defunct schemes are as
three small plecea of silver to a double
eagle. The nearest approach to Wright in
magnitude were the operations of Jabes
Balfour, a countryman, who la serving a lite
sentence In a British prison.
An acoount of the life of the wrong Mr.
Wright In the New York Herald Bay, he has
made and lost millions, and Is accused of
having been tha cause of the loss of $100,
oa.ooa through the organisation and failure
t the Globe group at companies. He lived
ta Philadelphia for alx rears, from 1S8 to
U9L occupying an office In a building where
the Btook exchange now stands, and en
gaging la business aa a broker la cotton,
grain and petroleum. His wife Is a native
of Philadelphia and her father was killed
during the civil war while serving under
General Grant.
Hia aucceeses did not begin until after
ba left tbla country. In West Australia
he la said to have made $15,000,000 In mln
lng speculations, ami to have made several
tlmea that amount In London In the opera
tion of eompanlea he organized te float hia
properties. He Induced several members
of the nobility to serve on hia boards of
directors, among them the late Lord Duf-
terln, at one time governor general of Can
ada, who was financially ruined by tha fall
ure of the concern.
In appearanoe he Is not especially strik
ing, but his personality Is magnetic, and it
has been aald that If be could get a man te
listen to him for fifteen minutes he could
In most Instances obtain from him almost
anything he desired. Weighing about 250
pounds and Ave feet ten inches tall, Mr.
wrignts upresalon, except when he la
greatly Interested In the matter under dis
cussloa. Is colorless and heavy. Hia small
eyes, set well back in his head, hia thick
neck, retreating forehead and rounded chin
fail entirely to convey any Impression of
the great Intellectual power he la admitted
to possess by all who have known him well,
but when he devotes his attention to the
furtherance of his plans or wishes to con
vince anyone his whole bearing changes.
His Ayes, turned full upon tho person to
wnom he is talking, seem to grow larger
as ne warma to his subject, and It la Ira
possible not to feel the effect of his mag
netio personality.

vum a snort nme oerore tne crash came
tnd the whole financial world waa shocked
by the enormity of the failure he had been
for several years one of the most prominent
Lgures in business circles in London. Him
self comparatively unknown when he began
his operations, he Induced Lord Dufferin,
Lord Loch and others with great namea to
allow him to use their names as members
of his boards of directors, and by thla
ineana Inspired so much confidence In hia
undertakings that money flowed In pro
tuaely from all quarters, and In several In
stances subscriptions to stock offered for
sale were far In excess of the capitalization
of the eompanlea he was floating.
Although never admitted to a social equal
ity with the members of the nobility, he
was . on intimate terma with many men
whose namea appear In Burke's Feerage,
He claims even King Edward aa bis per
sonal friend and is well known to such
American financiers as Charles T. Terkes
and Charles M. Schwab, the latter ef whom
he aays he met a short time ago la Parla
and found him looking In the best of
. health.
Ia his expenditures he has bean as lavish
as be has been bold In his financial yen
tares. His country house, in Surrey, Is one
of the wonders of that part of the country,
with Ita underground ball room and elab
orately fashioned apartments. He also has
a London house, which Is one of the most
magnificent In the city. Hta yachts have
been among the best in British waters and
his dinners were magnificent In the ex
treme.
So great. In fact, was his fame at that
time that a successful novel was written
by the late Harold Frederic, called "The
Market Place.' which was understood te
veil under a thin guise of fiction the mala
events la the career of the promoter and
his connection with Lord DuSerla.

Just ss Wright's name Is said to be J. W.
Wright. Lord Dufferin masquerades aa th
Marquis of ChsMon. This Is the novelist's
description of the promoter:
Thorpe was tall, but of a burly and
sioucning figure. His face, shrouded In a
high growing; dust colored beard, Invited no
attention. One seemed always to have
known this face thick featured. Immobile,
undistinguished. Its accessories for the time
being were even more than ordinarily unim
pressive. Both hair -and beard were ragged
with neglect. Ills commonplace dark clothes
looked as If he had slept in them; tho hands
resting on his big knees were coarse in
shspe and roughened and ill kept."
The novelist goes on to describe how
Thorpe induced members of the nobility to
lend themselves to his schemes, and tells
ow the Marquis of Chaldon, "ambassador
t Vienna In his time, but willing to gather
In his five hundred a year Just the same,"
became chairman of. the board of dlr-ctors
Thorpe's great company, Just as Lord
Dufferin became chairman of the board of
irectors of the London and Globe Finance
company.
In the end all Thorpe's enemies are ru.
ined, hia frlenda enriched, he himself mar-
riea a wealthy and aristocratic wife, and
the novelist leavea him planning new
schemes by which he may utilize the noble
friends, under whose tables he la now priv
ileged to place hie feet.
His Meteoric Career.
Mr. Wright's financiering has been of
the pyrotechnic order. He floated into
prominence and fortune on the flood gates
of the boom In West Australian gold mines,
The London and Globe Finance company
waa a promoting concern for manufactur
lng securities, and It has been said that
none of the dlrectora, except Mr. Wright
had the slightest grasp of Ha affairs or the
remotest conception ef Us ramifications
and ventures.
Men like Lord Dufferin, Lord Loch and
Lord William Beresford were, used by
Wright to dazzle the bourgeois public,
rather than to assist in guiding the affairs
of the company.
He had a marvellously rich mine In Lake
View, In West Australia, which was turn
ing out $700,000 a manth In gold, and the
stock noared to $140 a share.
An American mining engineer was In
charge at the mine, and reported to Mr
Wright's-London office that the Bonanza
mine, which waa producing most of the
profits, waa growing bigger and stronger
In depth.
Mr. Wright bought all the atock In alght
only to learn later that the great store of
ore. was dug out.
Before the collapse ef the Lake View
mine Mr. Wright had advanced $10,000,000
the total capitalization of the London
and Olobe Finance company te the Baker
street railroad acheme In London. Then
he bought out the British American cor
poration, with a capital of $7,600,000. It
waa over subscribed and the ateck went to
a premium. Thla corporation bought up
the Le Rot and other mines in British
Columbia, and. within two years the Le Rol
mine alone was said te have made $2,580,000
profit.
Four different corporations were organ
ized to control these mines and the com
ponies were floated on the London market,
The stock of all rose to a large premium
and the market value oZ the stock of the
four companies soon rose to $40,000,000
representing an Investment of less than
$5,000,000, all made within three years.
Then Came Collapse.
This waa Inflation and manipulation
which could not last. Collapse waa in
evitable. Thirteen firms, involving about
thirty members of the London Stock ex
change, failed through the Globe group col
lapse, some of whom were among the best
known men Irf the London financial world.
At that time It was said that the crash,
while It was certain to come sooner or
later, might, have been delayed had It not
been for a quarrel between Mr. Wright and
Joseph Kaufman, a , mine - exploiter, who
were once bosom friends. The former ted
the bull movement In West Australian
shares and the latter led the bears. After
a three years' fight Mr. Kaufman con
quered.
Even then the Stock exchange wits had
a fling at the promoter. . "When, was
Whltaker Wright r they asked, to which
the proper answer waa. "When he took a
Duffer-ln."
The story waa also told at that time, aa
Illustrative of dangers he had escaped, of
how an Indian squaw once saved his Ufa
after he had given her a trivial present.
He waa out prospecting one day and looked
Into her tent. She Immediately told him
the braves of her tribe were after his scalp
and hid him beneath aoma aklna. Pres
ently up came the redskins and asked If
she had seea him. She stood at the door
of her tent and said he had passed In a
certain direction. Every other white man
In the neighborhood waa murdered. '
Anerlcaa Moaejr Lost. v
Much American money waa lost In the
failure of the Wright eompanlea.. There
waa a great outcry agaiaat the attitude of
the authoritiee In not proaecutlng Mr.
Wright aad hia fellow directors In the
London and Globe, and la January laat
petition was circulated en the London
Stock exchange, algned by many Influential
men, demanding the prosecution of Mr.
Wright, aa it was considered that tha
credit of the city and of the London Stock
exchange demanded a thorough Investiga
tion.
A fund of $21,000 waa raised te Initiate
the prosecution of Wright. Arnold White,
an author, at a meeting aald the reason
the proseoutloa waa aot undertaken by the
government was that the directors of the
London and Olobe were sheltering them
selves behind members of the royal fanlly
He added that he understood a royal duke
had Invested his money In the concern,
and he believed that "certain hangers-on
at court" were using the name of the king
and otbera for the purpose of hiding their
own nefarloua deeds.
Other speakers at this meeting declared
that the stockholders of the London and
Olobe were victims of one of the moat
"terrible, heartless aad gigantie awlndlea
of the present age."
Action was taken against Mr. Wright on
March 10. Justtcs Buckeley, In the chan
cery division of the high court of Justice,
made aa order directing the official re
cetver aa liquidator ef the Olobe corpora
tion, te prosecute Mr. Wright on a crim
lnal charge and to utilize the assets or tne
London aad Globe to pay the costs of the
arosecutlon. The following day a warrant
tor Mr. Wright's arrest waa Issued.

We agree that man should use his reason
and his intellect in the adjustment of the
reproduction of his species. But it by no
manner of means follows that the unmar
ried man Is guided by his brains rather
than bis passions. "Dens of iniquity"
abound where the brutes of human species
riot and defy all laws of God, and man, and
nature these for the besotted and de
graded. For the man of brains and Intel
lect the gilded palaces of sin flourish.
No less guilty is the last than the first.
and far more inexcusable. Does celibacy
Induce or promote morality? From which
class of mem do these hideous resorts most
largely draw their patronage and support-
married or unmarried men?
It won't do to put the raison d'etre upon
any ether higher grounds than that of the
bachelor's objection "to change his life of
ease and freedom obtained from a salary
sufficient for his Individual needs for one
of bondage." He may not be criminal
only selfish, but even more than this, 'tis
usually a matter of taste and preference
where and how he will spend his money,
Stroaales and Mlsfortanes.
Perhaps many a man haa been driven to
suicide or the verge of It because of de
mands which he waa unable to meet. Maay
another haa been, too, er, worse still, to
tnaaalty when some calamity or disease
swept his family away from him. His ob
ject in life went with them, without them
existence waa Insupportable. Nothing
seemed worth while thereafter, though he
might then have had something more than
Just clothes and tobacco. Love is the rul
ing passion in some men's lives, for which
we thank God and take courage. They are
the ones who in some measure redeem no
small proportion of their sex from utter
obloquy.
The article In The Sunday Bee takes no
account of a large - number of bachelors
who are not so from choice. It is, or has
been, their ambition to become benedicts
The Implication is that somewhere i

shall become "her financial supporter," and
that she feels disappointed and defrauded
If he fatla to show up.
Not every woman aspires to the work of
trying to reform a rake or made a man
out of an incapable. Of the two, her risk
of Ill-assorted mating la far greater than
his, and more often 'tis the wife who Is
the galley stave under sentence through
life, and she usually endures her servitude
with a heroism and patience of which "the
man of wrath" has no conception.
Omaha, Neb. A WOMAN OBSERVER.
What fossa B. Anthony gays.
A correspondent of the Philadelphia
North American recently interviewed Mias
Susan B. Anthony en the question of mar
rlage and the rearing of children, with par
tlcular reference to the recent letter of
President Roosevelt to Mrs. Van Worst en
"race suicide." Miss Anthony dictated
reply, whloh follows, In part:
President Roosevelt often talks without
dus consideration, and thla time he la par
ticularly unconsidered In his utterance.
Hia Ideas on race suclde are those of
soldier, who looks upon human beings
either aa possible soldiers or
mothers of soldiers. It Is the Idea
peror William of Germany. There la noth
ing new In the propositions advanced by
the president. They are as old as the pa
triarchs, whe, I believe, had families large
enough te suit even Mr Roosevelt.
There ia not the slightest danger of the
race dying out. Oa the ether hand, there
Is a certainty of the race deteriorating be
cause ef overcrowding. There are already
too many people on earth. There are too
many morally, physically unfit te live.
There are too many marriages too many
Ill-considered and hasty marriages between
Irrationally mated men and women.
It la absurd for Mr. Roosevelt, or any
other man, te say that the women of the
world are evading the duties of maternity.
We see on all sides cumulative evidence to
the contrary. Look at the thousands, hun
dreds of thousands, millions of faded, tired
out, physically wrecked wives and mothers,
and then tell me. If you dare, that the
women do not do their share In peoplelng
the world.
That ia where the women make a great
mlatake., Tbla Idea that a young girl should
look forward to marriage aa the chief aim
In life, that the day after she lets her
skirts down to her shoe tops she must look
out for a husband, la all wrong. Likewise
tt la worse than wrong to teach the youth
with a budding mustache that some girl in
the world la sighing for him, and that It is
hta duty to marry on nothing a year and
with ne definite aim In life.
Haphasard Marriages.
We see the sad consequences of this
haphazard sort of marital contract every
day of our Uvea. We see the fruits In
discouraged men, broken down, physically
PROTEST "caed women, sickly, -poorly reared chil
dren and wretcnea nomee. ror man ia a
selfish creature, and In the majority of
instances where there Is not money enough
for all, he spends what there la on him
self. In drink and disgraceful dissipation,
aa like ds not.
As I before remarked, Mr. Roosevelt haa
propounded . nothing new. It la the aame
old doctrine handed down from the days
of the she par d patrlarcha, through the
dark agea, via the Pilgrim ta there. Early
marriages, the more marriages the better,
big families, the bigger, haa alwaya been
the doctrine of the lords of creation.
It is the doctrine of the polygamous
Mormons tn Utah. And do you know, I
don't see much difference between the Mor
mon with his four wives and tha Pilgrim
Father living with hia fourth the three
sainted predeoeaaors lying in the church
yard after presenting their common hue
band with their quota of children.
It Is merely a difference In style, the
Pilgrim Father driving his wives taadem
aad the Mormon his four abreast. The
systems come to the same end that Is,
the wives are mere slaves to their bus
and children.
Physical Wrecks.
I say that the mother of a large family
Is In jlne cases out of ten a physical
wreck. One child usually satisfies the
matrimonial Instinct; two, or certainly
three." Beyond that number the wife be
comes a mother under protest, five under
exceptional circumstances a large family
cannot be properly cared for by the mother.
Better a email family where the children
are healthy, bright, plentifully fed and
adequately clothed than a large family neg
lected and unschooled.
Look about you In any large city and
tell me if you notice any lack of children.
The streets fairly swarm with them. 1
don't know of a city in the land where
the public purse Is equal to providing
school accommodations. Everywhere a
large percentage of children are forced to
remain out of school because there Is no
provision for them. ToJay the children
come so fast that boards of education
cannot keep pace with the demand.
The big family' idea was invented by
man for his own selfish motives. Usually
the father of a big family is living with
his second or third wife. Motherhood has
worn out the others. I sometimes almost
doubt the wisdom of the Almighty; for. If
he had Intended woman to be a mere
propagating machine, It seems to me that
he ought to have made her out of better
and more enduring stuff.
Most of the young men of the day are
morally unlit for marriage. They are
dissipated, frivolous, selfish, stingy and un
willing to support a wife. They prefer to
spend their money upon frivolous girls,
with no thought of matrimony. When, at
last, after yeara of pleasure, they take
a wile, they make her miserable. They
either will not support her, or, It they
contribute. It la done so grudgingly aa to
crush the humanity out of the woman.
Sinks Her Individuality.
The woman who marries sinks her Indi
viduality and becomes a mother, never
amounting to anything but a household
drudge. Whenever a married woman dues
achieve anything you will always find that
her husband la an enlightened and su
perior man, who makes no pretense to
being the superior and gladly avails him
self of his partner's help and counsel.
Right here I want to say that woman Is
proving her physical and mental right to
equality, at least In the marital state,
through a strange compensatory evolution
In nature. Vice and dissipation have al
ready begun to tell upon the men. Hence
we aee, year by year, the physical and
Intellectual plane of woman advancing.
Look at the men and women passing In
the crowded streets, and notice the ever
increasing proportion of well-formed, vig
orous women single women women taller
and. more athletic than their male escorts.
Observe the puny appearance of so many
of the men. Man la going backward as an
animal.
I believe not only should thefo be fewer
marriages, but that many of the mar
riages already contracted should be dis
solved. In the thousands upon thousands
of cases where the husband la addicted to
licentiousness. It Is not only the right but
the Juty of the woman to seek divorce.
It Is through woman's Ignorant subjec
tion to the tyranny of man's appetites and
passions that the life current of the nation
is corrupted, and "suicide of tho race" is
threatened and not, as Mr. Roosevelt In
lets, through the failure of men and
women to marry.
It the race is to be saved from "suicide"
It must be saved through the intelligent
emancipation of woman.

No woman can be too careful to see that the periodical function is kept in a healthy
condition. The easiest and most certain way to do this is to take an occasional dose of Wine
of Cardui to invigorate the organs which need reinforcement.
Every woman is subject to some conditions which bring on female weakness. Wine
of Cardui gives women strength for all the duties of life. It gives them strong nerves, pure
blood freedom from pains and sickness.
Make up your mind to have perfect health. Wine of Cardui not only cures, but it
guards and keeps the health. The organs quickly respond to the healing vegetable ingre
dients of which Wine of Cardui is composed. A healthy woman does well to take this
medicine on approaching her periodical sickness. Occasional doses of Wine of Cardui save
expensive services of a doctor.
Wine of Cardui cures the worst cases of prolonged female troubles, and has cured thou
sands of them quickly and completely in the privacy of the home. But why wait until you
are sick to PTiard vour health? It is better to keep in health than to fight chronic disease.
Take a little thought and keep your health good without undergoing pain and suffering.
Chicors, Miss., May 1, 1902.
Wins of Cards! and Thedford's Black-Draught are a sure cure for all female diseases. I recommend your medicines to all my friends
everywhere I go. Fire months ago 1 could not walk acrosa the house without great pain, but I am well again. I hare only taken font
bottles of Wine of Cardui, but feel better than I have felt in two years. Mrs. N. T. GLIDEWELL.
, Sand Lake, Mich., June 10th, 1902.
I most write and thank you for the good your Wine of Cardui has done me. Twenty-one years ago Wine of Cardui sared my mother's
life, in Allen County, Indiana, and thinking ot that three weeks ago I purchased a bottle. It Is tbe medicine a woman needs.
