LOTTERY OF THE THEATRES.
Bronson Howard’s Big Struxgia to Re
gain Lost Ground.
-\v York, Oct. I.—Bronson Howard
Ilia : a big struggle for lost ground with
kj s ~w play this week. He got a drubbing
from the press and tho public when he pro
du "Met by Chance” which he is not like
ly to forget. Though he had been for many
y e is the foremost of American dramatists
,1 man of many charming and lovable
so■ a! qualities, he was jumped on just as
ju 1 when he made a failure as though he
jjjil t„.en an unknown writer or a politician
Y out a pull. He had everything at stake
y rh hi> new comedy and he made it a sue
•• The Henrietta" was tilled with bright
[ jj a logue and gave evidence in several places
ot strong dramatic force, i t was epigram
matic too, as Howard’s plays usually are, and
jt> triumph was due to the playwright and
, w t to the men who stayed in the piece. The
Pn t is that Robsoil and Crane are begin
ning to wear a little upon the pub
jj . ° ,\u last year they tried to push an old
Sliakesperean comedy down tha throats of
theatre-goers whether they would or no,
and tlie poorer the business was the harder
t ),py stuck to it. The result, was that they
lost prestige very rapidly, and they found it
necessary to do something to attract tho
attention of the higher-grade of theatre
n..■!•*. Henee their arrangement with Mr.
Bronson Howard. But Robson and Crane
bas e been acting together so long, and have
so carefully nurtured their mannerisms that
there isa lack of spontaniety and freshness
about their humor that cannot be atoned
for even by lavish stage skill and dramatic
polish. In their new piece they have a
vehicle that serves them well enough for
showing off their old time and hackneyed
cleverness, and that is about all.
The new French opera company seems to
have caught the town. There are more dis
tictivelv young women in the chorus than
is usually the rule in companies of the sort,
ami there seems to be a very fair prospect
of success. Everything is apparently run
ning Abbey’s way now, and the fact that
la. firm has control of the new French
opera company indicates that the perfor
mances will be of a higher order than here
tofore. Abbey is reaching out extensively
in his old-time fashion and it will ijot sur
prise anybody materially if the old-time re
sult follows. He has engaged a company
of twenty-four peoplo and the sea
son at Wul lack's Theatre, which
ho now manages, will be opened
by a company of just seven per
sons. If the piece is successful Mr. Abbey
will have fifteen high-priced people walk
ing about the streets drawing salaries with
out having a chance to go on the stage.
The new piece is called “The Mouse Trap.”
It has never been played upon any stage.
Curiously enough, every actor in the com
pany and everybody connected with the
stage is English, wal lack’s isfated to have
the Anglomaniac tinge to the last. The two
loading women are Rose Coghlan and
Florence Girard (Mrs. Abbey), the leading
man is Osmond Tearle, and all of the minor
people are direct from London. As the
shrewdest judges of things theatrical have
claimed for years that the English
tendency at Wallack’s Theatre is
what caused the downfall of the
house, it is rather odd that so
shrewd a man as Abbey should follow in
the same path. The Wallacks seem to have
dropped entirely out of the dramatic field.
The old man, Lester Wallaek, devoted some
time to rehearsing Mr. Joseph Haworth,
who is playing in "Rosedale,” and Mr. Ar
thur Wallack, the son, is more or less inter
ested in the Haworth tour. But both of
positions are of minor importance, and the
men who once held the keynote of the en
tire dramatic situation in America have
dropped into subservient and unimportant
positions. They will eventually drop) out of
sight, and it is a question of a very short
time at that.
The surprise of the season seems to be Mr.
Frederick Bryton, whose fame is being
rushed into prominence by the success
which is greeting him all about the coun
try. He is the handsomest of the leading
men, and, unlike the actors of the
Kvrie ileliew and Eben Plympton stripe,
he’ seems to be made of solid flesh and blood,
so t hat men admire him even more than
women. His play and his success are re
markable instances of what pluck will do
in the lottery of theatrical successes. Bry
ton is a brawny, square-shouldered, direct
and handsome man, with unlimited confi
dence in himself, and a reputation for per
fect squareness and thoroughness to his
hackers. He believed he could make
a success as a star, and Nate Sauls
bury bellieved in him too. Clay Greene
wrote a play for him called “Forgiven,” and
Nate Saulsbury sent Bryton on the road.
Week after week the company lost money,
nnd Saulsbury went to his bank account
and made good the losses This went on for
month after month, until Buffalo Bill’s
partner found himself on the wrong side of
his bank account to the tune of a great
many thousand dollars. Still he believed in
Bryton, and Brvtou believed in himself,
and they kept on with unflinching courage.
Tim season was closet! with many debts, and
Saulsbury pulled himself together, and ap
plied the rest of his bank account to taking
Buffalo Bill’s show to England. There the
money began to pour into his pockets in
barrels full, aud Bryton started out on his
second season. The faith of the backer and of
the star was unshaken, and this time Sauls
bury was ready aud able to meet all de
mands. But money lias been pouring in
on him from bis American enterprise, just
as it has been in London. Bryton’s success
is the talk in theatrical circles. He has
made up all his losses, and is greeted by
crowded houses everywhere in playing over
the ground that was a dreary waste to him
a year ago. Yet, if they had had a shade
less money or confidence, they would never
have gone out again this year, and so
missed a fortune. Tho theatrical business
is a curious lottery at best, but there seems
to be no doubt of the success of the policy
of sticking to a good thing if you happen to
get hold of it. That has been Saulsbury’s
motto, and his reward bi Is fair to be some
thing near a million dollars within the next
vwwe, Blakely Hall.
ABUSES IN NEW YORK HOSPITALS.
I
Effeminate Disciples of Esculapius Who
Need Taking in Hand.
New York, Oct. 2. —A pathetic scene
took place in the German Hospital on
Fourth avenue recently. John Thomas, a
poor laborer, lay on his deathbed, surround
ed by a weeping wife, two children and a
brother. That terrible destroyer, heart dis
ease, had at last done its work.
“Bury me alongside of Lillie, Nell,” he
whispered faintly to his wife.
There was an increase of tears for several
moments and then John had gone, leaving
his relatives to fight their battle, and enjoy
their pleasure without him.
The very poor in this big city, however
much they may grieve or mourn for the
loss of a relative or friend, realize fully the
futility of spending valuable time in lameut
mg. The actual imperative demand upon
[heir purse and time while the departed is
being removed to the final resting place are
frequently more than they can afford. In
the present instance, Thomas had been ail
ing f<,r more than four months, and tho
duty of providing for the family had de
volved upon his wife and brother. With
the certain knowledge of what was coining
they had managed to lav by enough money
to provide for a decent funeral. As soon as
|ne first burst of grief over the death of the
husband and brother had subsided Mrs.
Thomas and her brother-in-law set about pre
paring for the funeral. Thomas'wish to be
interred beside t he body of hi*daughter was
Inspected and arrangements were made with
the undertaker for a burial at Calvary Clem
®tory. All that was necessary to complete
toe arrangements was the death certificate
> fr "m the hospital authorities, and the wife
W'nt there in the morning before tho
toii.Tiil for the purpose of obtaining this.
"J"' was met by a young doctor, attired in
to" latest style, who replied to her mild ro-
T'l'st by saying:
. “ VVe’U give you a certificate provided you
will allow us to perform au autopsy on the
body of jour husband, otherwise we can’t
do it. IVe want to learn the actual cause of
death.”
“Why, he died of heart disease. He pas
been troubled with that for a long time,”
said the poor woman.
"Oh, he has, has he.' - ’ returned thedaudv.
“AA r eli, we can’t certify to that. No autopsy
no certificate.”
Of course his object was to secure a body
for the dissecting knife. All the woman's
entreaties and pleadings were in vain. She
went, home with a heavy heart, and would
undoubtedly have given in to the cruel
demands of the doctor bad not a friend
advised her to appeal to the Board of
Health. She and and so and was referred to
the Coroner’s office. There she was informed
that the doctor must give her a certificate,
and Coroner Eidman agreed to push the
matter through. The next day at noon,
two horn’s after the time set for the funeral,
the certificate was reeeived. The under
taker had to hurry through with his
arrangements, and it was late in the after
noon when the start was made for the ceme
tery. It was dark by the time they reached
there, and only through the kindness of the
keeper were they enabled to proceed with
the ceremony. Through the brutality of
the doctor they had lost time and money
and had been plunged into anxiety.
Yet their experience was gentle compared
with thut of many poor persons in New
York. Bellevue Hospital furnishes more
instances of aggravated cruelty of this na
ture than any other, although nearly all the
hospitals indulge in this style of blackmail.
It is really nothing less. The hospital doc
tors’ usual mode of obtaining compliance
with their demands is clearly a violation of
the criminal laws of the State and ought to
be punished as such. The friends of the de
ceased patient are informed that unless they
agree to an autopsy they cannot get the
certificate. If they refuse to agree to th is
and insist upon having the certificate the
doctors will give one; but they will, unless
afraid of the consequences, invariably at
tribute the cause of death to alcoholism,
although they are well aware that they are
thus certifying to a falsehood.
In this way they wreak their petty re
venge upon the poor persons who do not
want to have the bodies of their relatives
cut to pieces. The doctors know that such
a death certificate will not be received by
many of the best cemeteries, and take satis
faction in preventing the poor relatives
from interring the body where they wish.
It would seem at first glance that such
practices would not be permitted by the
elder doctors, who have reputations to lose,
and do not need to experiment upon the
dead bodies of the poor; but as a matter of
fact the men of real eminence are only con
sulting physicians and have no control over
the conduct of the younger men.
Frequently the relatives, ignorant of
their rights, submit to the demands of the
doctors. In speaking of this the chief clerk
of the Coroner’s office laid particular stress
upon the fact that in Bellevue, the city hos
pital, these outrages were most frequent.
There are always more unclaimed bodies
there than are needed for dissecting pur
poses, but the young physicians seem to
take pleasure in torturing the poor people.
The Coroners have frequently been called
upon to interfere in cases where the doctor's
conduct was particularly outrageous. A
frequent trick, where it is known that the
relatives are making a fight for the body, is
to tell them that the doctor who had charge
of the case is out. That compels them to
call so frequently as to interfere seriously
with their work. It has sometimes hap
pened that by this means a poor man has
lost liis employment and been reduced to the
verge of starvation. Fiendish cruelty of
this kind needs correction by the strong
hands of the law.

HEIRS OF MILLIONAIRES.
Why Jay Gould Was More Smiling
Than Usual.
New York, Oct. 1. —AVhen Jay Gould
stepped lightly out of his office in the Wes
tern Union building yesterday afternoon
there was a smile on his face such as had
rarely ever lieen seen there before he be
came grandfather to the heir of his son
George’s fortune. The recent appearance of
that youngster gave hope to the founder of
the Gould dynasty that his millions would
descend in direct line down, at least to the
third generation, from whence the line of
inheritance may yet be carried along
through generations yet unborn. It used al
ways to be said in old times, when million
aires were so few as to number but three or
four in the whole United States, the great
fortunes in this country were pretty sure to
be dissipated by the sons of the men who
gathered them, and that there was
no chance of the growth of
hereditary wealth under the leveling
influences of democracy. But we can now
see in New York inherited fortunes, not
few in number, that have been firmly held
through three or four generations, and bid
fair to continue far beyond the heirs now
on the stage. The foundation of the big
gest fortune in America was laid three
quarters of a century ago by Cornelius
Vanderbilt, who was even then the Captain
of a petty fleet, and the millions of the
Commodore descended to his son, AVilliam
H., in whose hands they doubled, and by
him they were bequeathed to William K.
and his other children, several of whom
have now posterity who are reasonably sure
of inheriting it in due time. The founda
tion of tho gigantic fortune of the Astor
family (at least $100,000,000) was laid in this
city 100 years ago by John Jacob Astor,
who transmitted it to his heir, William 8.,
who bequeathed it to his heir, John J., who,
some years ago, turned over the keeping of
it to his heir, AViiliam AV., to be trans
mitted in course of time to his heir, already
on the stage —heir of the fifth generation
since the origin of the Astor fortune. These
are the most familiar examples of hered
itary fortunes in New York, though the
list might bo extended to the De Peysters
(whose estate dates before the revolution),
the Rhinelanders and many other land
holders. As for the fortunes now in the
second generation and hastening to the
third, they are too numerous to mention. So
it is an error to suppose that the sons of tho
rich are always sure to be spendthrifts who
will dissipate their heritage. It is a fact, on
the contrary, that in the cases referred to,
as well as in others that might be spoken of,
the original inheritance has been vastly in
creased by each successive generation. The
head of the Astor family to-day—if we re
gard AViiliam AV., who manages the
property, as the real head—is a shrewd
business man, always enlarging the estate;
and the same thing may bo said of AViiliam
K. Vanderbilt, and of others in the line of
millionaire ism, including George Gould, the
son of his father Jay and the father of his
son Jay. J■ >htv BwtntON.
AN EXCITING EXPERIENCE.
Wild Rido on a Train in Charge of a
Demented Engineer.
fVom the Mimmuri Republican.
Des Moines, la., Sept, as.— The fireman
on tho south hound W abash train passed
through a thrilling experience yesterday.
Engineer Botswortb pulled out of the yard
here in apparently good health and spirits.
But at Harvey he passed the water tank a
full train length. The fireman called lustily
to him to back, but lie paid no heed. Sus
pecting he was under the influence of liquor,
the fireman hacked the train ami took water.
Several stations wore passed without stop
ping, the engineer giving no heed to the
fireman’s cautions. At Knoxville Junction
occurred a narrow escape from running
into an open switch. Here the conductor
came out and gave the engineer a severe
lecture. Starting out from this point be
hind time, Botsworth raised the speed to
fifty miles an hour. Below Beacon he gave
a loud whoop und sprang through tho cab
window, but was not quite quick enough to
elude the fireman, who caught him by the
leg and held him suspended in mid-air,
while with his own feet he reversed the
I lever and brought tho train to a standstill.
The engineer was then coaxed to the way
car and turned over to tho authorities at
Ottumwa. He was brought home to day,
but failed to recognize his wife. Hia mal
ady is believed to bo paralysis of tho braia
