BRGADBRINS LETTER. One of The Direst Horrors Ever CROKER'S GREAT POWER. NEVER KNOWN TO SHRINK FROM A CORFLICT. Sensation Caused in New York by Russian Violinist--Hope For Gréater New York Becoming Centre of The World's Civiliza- tion. Whig Correspondence; Letter No. New York, Jan. 17.---The year of 1901 has pas-ed to the tomb of the ages. Ashes to ashé®, dudt to dust it leaves' bohind the roar of the battle field from the equator to the poles, Instead of dying peacefully and leav ing hehind the memories of duties done and of life's tasks well perform ed, we hear nothing Dut the shrieks of the dying and we see little but the faces of the dead. Vale, vale. In the trial balance of an ending life we clove wo the last page of 1901, The year 1902 comes to us with one of the divest horrors that ever circled the globe. What at first seemed to be an ordinary accident, on. closer in- vestigation almost proves to be. a eviwe. Un Wednesday morning, Janu- ary Sth, the name of the unfortunate engineer who had charge of the train, rang around the world loaded with the anathema marantha, the most dreadful curse known to the Catholic church. On further investigation the accident was found to be one which the engineer was nowide c sponsible and our district attorney Jarome, whose name is a tervor to evil-doers, and who two days ago would pot listen to the engineer's of fence, which he at first thought was wilful murdery has so modited his ideas that he is willing to release en gincer Wisker on the nominal bail of 310,000. No such shock as that which aecurred on Wednesday has heen felt in this city for many years. While the cries of the wounded were echoing through the city of New York and in its great sorrow it wopld seems as if each individual should bear a share, the next evening a great railroad magnate gave an evemng's entertain ment at heavy cost, which was to the propricties of our people a shock which they will not readily forget Corpelus Vanderbilt, one of the heav iest stockholders in the New York Central railroad, had invited seventy of his friends to a royal feast and an entertainment after such as « can ¢ afforded by multi-millionaires. Two of the greatest artists now in this ountry were td furnish a phenomenal entertainment, vocal and instrumen tal.- Mme. Materna, of the Grand «talian opera, gave the vocal portion and Kubelik, a recent, imgortation and a great violinist, - was ® contri bute the instrumental portion, and il as singular in its Set on Corpe- ius Vanderbiit's guests as it had the xt day on the audience in Brook- lyn, it mast have bech rare and cost: ly. But the cry bi suffering humanity lid not ponetrate the walls oi Cor uelius Vanderbilt's home. 1.287) "Ovi with the dance. lt joy be wmeonfined No sheep dll morn, where: youth and beauty meet . fo chase leat." It is true Mr. Vanderbilt was in no way responsible for the accident; be is a wise and generous man.~ Like his iather before him, worthy charity eldom plead to him in vain; it is al so true that the enpagements were all made at heavy costs, the floral de sorations in his - house alone running ap into the thousands, the services of Mme. Matérna were not less than she receives nightly from the Italian and sully on the music, sagraviog and © expenses swelled to a very large hill}, whether the entertainment was given or not. The menu was ser ved by Sherry, one of our most cost f-iy and expessive restauranteurs, and the articles provided by him for the ioast were perishable and would have to be paid for whether consumed or not. Al these expensive luxuries put together, even if everything were lost, would have made but a slight inpret- ion on Cornelius Vanderbilt's bank account. The whole question resolves itsell into one of propriety. No ervime, and nevertheless a grave offence for which upon reflection Cornelius Van derbilt will be sorry. Our city wap plunged in sorrow and the entire land mingled in sorrow with ours, and Yor Cornelius Vanderbilt to give such a entertainment at such a4 time was a grave error, to say the feast. On a similar occasion, his grandiather, on being arraigned for a matter which brought him in opposition | to" the public and being told by an intimate friend that he had given « to the publie, he is said to. have replied: "The public is damned." Though it was very much like him to have said so, I don't believed he over uttered those words, and his explicit denial confirms my belief. The ie. how #ver; at large did not believe him and the lie teavelled so fast that the truth was never able to céatoh it, and a nom- took: such * stock the glowing hours with flying ceeding Vanderbil n. weight of the terrible destruc of life has been in part Tiited of the unfortuiate him to live upon that the machinery controlling its ac: tion is always ready. One of the .gregl sensations of the wiek has been the appearance in Brooklys of Kubelik, the great Rus sian violinist. We bave witnessed scenes of phenomena] excitement over artists of rare and exceptional ability. Oné which ocourved about two years ago 'was of such a character as to have the appearance of a town run mad.

Fhe efiect of his playing was magical; the andience found 1t imipossible to risist the spell which this magician of the piano cast over thew. It was impossible to resist him; men and wo- wen fell at his feet as worshippers. He cave individually a programme nearly two hours in Jength and it seemed as though his audience would never be satisfied; but, like Oliver in Dickens' novel, they were constantly asking for more® At the eonclusion of Mr. Pa derewski's concert the audience rushed lJorward, the men to clasp his magical hand and the women, i possible, to kiss him. : Ancient damest whose accumulated years seemed to be an armor against such girlish influences fell at his feet just hke their daughters. and were, if possible, a trifle more enthusiastic. Those who witnessed that scene never expected to see it duplicated on this continent again, but Paderewski would have gone into hali mourning for the rept of his life could he have witniss- ed the triumph of this wizard of he violin. There seeined to be magic in his touch and the listener believed that the grandest musical instrument ever invented by man was the violin, When Pagamini first appeared in Lendon he was 'the first pioneer to test the pos sibilities of that wonderful instrument, At last the inspiration became so strong that people believed he was in league with the devil, and that he had bartered his soul for the privilege of developing his wondrous art. Mark the combination that produced the sound. The bow was made of lance- wood and the sound producer was hair from a horse's tail. Over the instru- ment itself were four strings supposed to de from the entrails of a cat, and 7 s this combination that pro- duced at the artist's will this 'wonder ful revelation of sound. As yqu list ened an uncanny feeling seemed to govern every nerve and fiber of the heart and brain. You heard the soft soughing of the wind as it played through the leaves of the trees, and while still afar off you heard the low rumble of the thunder which told of the coming storm. Occasional flasfies of lightning flash before your eyes and on the instant you found vourgeli en veloped by the storm's fury, "Then the temipest abated, the storm king and his hosts had passed to the west and soofi 1t was lost in the distance.
