Chief Figures of the Democratic State
Committee.
* Substantial. Karntwt. Practical Corps or Men
Who Aasaiao Partial IlcspoiiHlIilllty for the Vote
of the Umpire State.
New York 8un.
C. C. B. Walker, the chairman of the
Democratic state committee in charge of
the Peckham ticket this year, was the great
man in charge of affairs in the busy head
quarters in the Hoffman House during
October. Ho is a very solid citizen, who
never would be taken for a New Yorker
but would everywhere impress himself
upon men as a shrewd, self-contained, and
able man. He is a merchant ip Steuben,
has been in cougress, is a man of means,
and has always been a democrat. Havin '
bolted with Kelly once and then returned
to the folds, he is now in the singular posi
tion of being claimed by both administra
tions and anti-Cleveland forces, but in
these days of unity that sort of talk is a
waste of time. Mr. Walker put in a great
•deal of work here and at home during the
canvass.
HThc burden of executive work fell this
year on Judge W. A. Poucher, chairman of
the executive committee, a rotund, genial
man, with a round face and a chin beard,
-who looks as though'he might be a coun
try banker. Not to know Judge Poucher
is to argue oneself unknown, for he is al
most the oldest member of the state com
mittee in years of membership. He has
been a member ten years. He has been an
assemblyman, mayor of Oswego twice, and
chairman of his home county committee
since any one can remember. He is a law
yer by profession,and has practiced twenty-
five years, but he is not and never was a
judge. He got the title as chairman of the
judiciary committee in the assembly. He
is 50 years old, and a cool, shrewd, practi
cal politician, who is so earnest a worker
that this year he has broken down his
health in the harness. He compares well
with Judge Alton B. Parker as chairman
of the executive committee, which is giv
ing him very high praise.
William L. Muller, secretary of the com
mittee, is a man whose personality and
work are familiar to all the leading demo
crats in the state. He has been seen less
at headquarters than usual, but has done
good work through the state. He was the
law partner of Gov. Hill, and is now a
judge of tho court of claims, but is still
nearer to the governor than any man in
the state. He hasjust reached middle age
and has always been a democrat.
Philo H. Backus, chief clerk of the ex
ecutive committee, is the slender man
with jet black hair and moustache who
was always found at the desk to the left of
the entrance to the headquarters. He
also is just 45 years old, and mst took part
in active life as a member of Ellsworth’s
zouave reg iment, subscribing $100 to equip
himself. He first held office in 1876 as cor
responding clerk for Gov. Robinson. In
1882 he went into the office of the state
treasurer as check clerk, and is
now cashier. He shines as
a practical politician, holdiug the
complexion of the districts of the state
within his mental grasp with such compre
hension as to make him a political cyclo
paedia as far as the state is concerned.
The routine and clerical work of campaign
ing has long been intrusted to him. and he
has made such science of it that he works
npon election districts, and even upon in-
•dividuals with letters, circulars and other
Influences. This year he had under him
type writers, a stenographer and fifty or
sixty girls engaged as mailers. The steno-
f rapher, Mr. George L. Betts, has long
eld that trying position for this commit
tee, and is one of the most expert men at
his business in this city. What the work
of the committee is may be judged by the
fact that the postage stam ps used last Fri-
<lay cost $400, ou the day before they cost
jJ500 and on the day preceding that $600.
AVARICIOUS HETTY GREEN.
A Flfty-Vpiir-Old Widow Who is Worth At I,oust
Thirty Millions of Dollars—A Financial Ama
zon Who Hus No Four of Wall-Street Sharks and
Schemes.
New York Special to Indianapolis Journal.
I see that Mrs. Hetty Green has secured
the control of the Georgia Central rail
road. She is also closely identified with
the Louisville and Nashville railroad, own
ing a large amount of its stock. She is a
remarkable woman. She is the wealthiest
in the United States. She has reduced
parsimony to a fine art and let avarice
curdle the milk of a woman’s highest at
tributes. She has unsexed herself for
gold, and stands a Shylock in crinoline,the
object of smiles and sneers among those
wno see only the moral hideousness of
such a Walpurgis trick of witch-like trans
formation, and do not pity the victim of
this moral cancer, an eating avarice that'
no wealth can satisfy. This seems
severe language in speaking of a woman,
but there is too much bowing and
cringing before wealth in this country, too
much crooking of the knee that thrift may
follow fawning. There are several closes
of women whom society condemns with
looks of stone, but the female miser is re
ceived in polished circles, though morally
meaner than some of her sisters who can
not here be named.
Mrs. Hetty Green is worth $30,000,000'
.She is rather handsome, of robust build,
about 50 years of age, with iron-gray hair,
strong features, and keen, penetrating eyes.
She is the daughter of a New Bedford
whaler, who left her $9,000,000: not long
after an aunt died and bequeathed her
$4,00,0000 more. With the $13,000,000 she
is credited with making $20,000,000 more.
Yet she feels poor. On one occasion, sev
eral years ago, she came down to her bank
er’s in Wall street, in a stage, with a valise
containing several hundred thousand dol
lars’ worth of securities. “Why did you
not come down in a carriage?” expostu
lated her banker.
“I can’t afford it,” was her remarkable
answer.
Once one of her children was taken with
convulsions during a stay at Babylon, Long
island, and she sent for a physician. The
child recovered before be arrived, and as
hi3 carriage drew up to the gate it is said
she called out a window, with an economi
cal view: “The child is all right, doctor.
Don’t come in!”
Wall street has many stories to tell ot
this woman’s eccentricities. A leading
banker said tho other day: “Years atfo,
wheal was living up town in a boarding
house, I had a hall room with board for $6
a week. Harriet H. Robinson—for that
was her maiden name—was stop
ping at the same bouse at the same
price in spite of her wealth.” Her
father, E. M. Robinson, from whom
she seems to have inherited her business
genius, was as close as a vise and was one
of the shrewd, ignorant fools who devote
an entire life to the piling up of useless
millions and who know nothing, through
their boorish illiteracy as to how wealth
may be made to minister to the higher en
joyments of life—men who never look into
a book, who read little but stock reports
even in newspapers, to whom science is a
sealed book, and to whom in art a chromo
is quite as acceptable as a Corot, even li
they knew the difference between the
two. It is significant, doubtless by a pure
accident, that the name oi the fabled
gold-producing King Midas has been ap
plied in science to a certain inferior species
of ape. ,

has proved herself a match for the schem
ers and sharks of Wall street, who occa

The Natural Result of a Itomantlr Adventure in

Rondout, November 4. — A romance
which will result in a fashionable wedding
in Brooklyn in the near future had its
foundation the past summer in a Catskill
mountain farm house near Hunter, Greene
county. The young lady, who is in her
teens, is the only daughter of a prominent
Brooklyn man. She is beautiful and ac
complished. The prospective groom is
about 39years of age, but his stern, settled
manner makes him appear older. Up to a
few months ago he was considered to be a
confirmed old bachelor, cruBty withal, and
misanthropical in his views of life. Lost
June he was advised by a physician and
his friends to give up business for a while
and seek rest in some quiet spot among the
mountains. Very reluctantly ho made
preparations. A pleasant farm house near
Hunter was selected.

LABOR ORGANIZING FOR POLITICS.
“We Are Coming. Father Ahrtihuiii. Three llnntlreil

New York, November 4.—The central
labor union campaign committee met to
night and considered the question of form
ing a permanent political organization. A
call will be issued soon to all districts for
delegates to a convention to be held at an
early date, and at which it is proposed to
form a new party that shall take an active
part in the canvass of 1888.

would bring home a chunk of ice, and per
haps a snow ball from the cave, where iee
is found all the year round. The Clove is
only a short distance from the house, so no
objection was raised to her proposed expe
dition. Oil her return the girl related her
adventure as follows:
“After walking about a mile I turned
round to speak to Carlo, the dog, but the
animal was nowhere in sight. I called
him, but he did not come. Thinking he
would soon reappear, I went on alone. I
saw some wild flowers and stopped to pick
them. As I raised my head I saw several
yards distant what I supposed to be the
dog. ‘Come, old fellow,’ I called. There
was some hesitation, but it came closer and
closer, but not until it wa3 nearly upon me
did I realize that I was almost in the
clutches of a big black bear. I don’t know
anything after that. Mr. says he
found me perched in the low branches of
a tree, nearly dead with fright, while the
bear kept, watch and guard near by. How
I ever got up in the tree I cannot imagine,
for I never could climb. Mr. itred
at the animal, but bruin turned tail and
waltzed off into the woods apparently un
hurt.”
It was allhost dark when the bachelor
and his fair burden arrived at the farm
house. Parties had been sent out to search
for the missing ones, and great anxiety
had been felt by the inmates of the farm
house. The girl did not recover from the
effects oi' her escapade lor several days,

scene of their guilty tragedy and hung
them to tbe limb of a neighboring tree.
This was all done in broad daylight, but,
as the mob was composed of men all en
tire strangers in the community, all efforts
of the grand jury were, of course, useless.
One of these robbers was known by the
name of Crouch, the other Maze. The
Rev. Josiah Whittaker, a noted orthodox
Methodist preacher ofthat day, was called
on to oiler spiritual consolation to the con
demned men. He delivered a brief address
from a New Testament text, and then
turning to the trembling wretches who
were awaiting execution, said:
“My unfortunate fellow-meu, I am sorry
to tell you that in less than fifteen minutes
you will both be writhing in hell.” Tho
men were then swung off' from the rear
end of a wagon into eternity.
That “Wilderness” road had been noto
rious for robberies, but this summary ac
tion of Judge Lynch put a complete stop
to them. Mr. Utterbaek never sufficiently
recovered from his injuries to be able to do
any manual labor, and for ten years past
has been unable to leave his room. He
could seldom he induced to speak
of this tragedy, or to allow
anyone to do so in his presence. Owin;
Ashing vessels will be able when short
