THE NEW DIRECTOR.
ymething About Sir Caspar Pur
don Clarke.
Liondon. January 23.
«-*e ensafrement of Blr Caspar Purdon Clarke
the Metropolitan Museum is something more
j,' n » ir.atter of money. A large salary alone
i^ja scarcely have drawn to America the dl-
Ljor of th * art museum of South Kensington.
! veteran in his sixtieth year, whose life has
* pent In the service of «>n art institution of
1( j v .:de reputation, must have had some
Aer ground of complaint than his Income to
«ye jecont -:I<hl lilmself to foreign residence and
--^ration from a circle of old companions and
friends. His connection with the Brompton art
tns dates back to ISG2. when he entered the
«jrir.g school as a Jem of architecture. The
llsscum had then been open about five years,
the foundations of what is now a compre-
school of design with illustrative col
j-dions in every branch of art had barely been
,£ He was an industrious and clever student.
jjfat the end of three years carried off a medal
proficiency Di architectural design. He ob
jSied employment in the Office of Public Works
f , Bhort period, and returned to South Ken
jSyton as an assistant architect. He took an ac
tlrtpart in the preparation of plans for the new
rsseurss In Brompton and in Bethnal Green, and
csseijufntly designed several consular and era
assj buildings, and the Indian Pavilion in the
£st Taris Exhibition. He was appointed as
«;star.t director of the museum at South Ken-
and after a protracted period of service
te was proructed nine years ago to the post of
tfreetor, and eubpequently honored with knight
hood. As a collector he made many Journeys to
•he Continent, and a long tour in India. His or
r«i!zlnp talent was displayed In the Fisheries,
Health and other exhibitions, and especially In
Ac Indian section of the last World's Fair in
Paris. His experience and knowledge as a col
lator In tlie broad field of illustrative study
in-3 plfed art ' ' ere exceptional; and by a life
time of arduous service he had qualified himself
for the rearrangement of the vast collections of
gpatl! Kensington In the new buildings to be
roir.pieted In the course of a few years. Sudden
ly the nation is deprived of his skill and authori
•y by the Metropolitan Museum In Now- York.
Dismayed by so serious a loss to art Interests,
•Jie critics Id the London newspaper offices are
denouncing with more irritability than acumen
the penurious scale of payments to experts in
BU&PUI2S and galleries. The salaries, it is true,
tre a; princely, but neither are they niggardly.
At the British Museum Sir Edward Maunde,
tie principal librarian, receives a salary of
$4jjOlI; eight heads of departments are paid
•rea $3.5<X) to HfiMi, and a large staff of assist-
earn from $750 to $3,000. There are retir-
Jj^ pensions and opportunities' for authorship
(afl expert study. Among th« heads of depart
pjena are men like Mr. Sidney Colvin, keeper
tf prints and drawings; Mr. Ernest A. Wallis
B-jic-. curator of Egyptian and Assyrian an
tiqritles; BIT Robert Kennaway Douglas, keeper
ef Oriental printed books and manuscripts; Mr.
Cecil H. Smith, curator of Roman and Greek
ts!«uities; Mr. C. H. Reed, keeper of British
aid mediaeval antiquities, and Mr. B. V. Head,
ssjsjtor of coins and medals. Salaries ranging
from S3..VK) to $4,000 are not munificent for ex
j«ts like these, but the men are where they
can prosecute favorite studies and turn their
to practical account. Professor Ray
"jtnkpjter, director of the Museum of Natural
Hirtory, receives about (6,000; Sir Edward J.
jaroter, director of the National Gallery and
<*a of the Tate Gallery, $5,000; Mr. Lionel
Henry Cust, director of the National Portrait
Gaikry, 13.000; Mr. Claude Phillips, keeper of
:h» Wallace collection, from $2,500 to $3,000,
md Sir Charles Holroyd, keeper of the Tate
<".;iiler)-, from 750 to $2,500. As director of
the Victoria and Albert Art Museum, In South
Kensinpton, Sir Caspar Purdon Clarke has
•smed between $3,500 and $4,500; his colleague,
J2r. \V. I. Last, director of the Science Museum,
ia recfived r.bout the same sum; the keepers
and assistants under them are paid all the way
from $'JO<J to $:J.O(K). Some of these officials
vithoat question are underpaid, when the re
(juireKeiUs of expert knowledge are taken into
iccour.t, but the majority of them work In a
leifurely way, taking advantage of opportunities
for extra employment, and the veterans have the
assurance of a pension in their declining years.
Wbile it is natural for English critics to re
sat the loss of the director of the South Ken-
Kspor. Art Museum, It is hardly just for them
:c iu*,gcst that he has been Induced by a prom
ised a salary twice as large as his own to de
■d a post where his services were pre-emi
notJj useful and satisfactory. It Is only fair
to ieff- that, tempting as the New- York offers
CJ7 have been frcm a financial point of view.
It would have rejected them if he had been
thoroughly contented where he was, and at lib
•ny to carry out his ideas and to work In his
own tray. There are many intimations that he
interfered with by officials In the Civil Ser
vice, and that he welcomed a release from the
•■Mlesome activities of domineering clerks.
The Victoria and Albert Museum was originally
wider the direction of the Board of Trade, but as
to character as a school of design was developed
it came to be regarded as a department of prac
tical art, and a few years ago it was placed
toder the control of the education office. Tech
tlcaliy it is a Fubdivision of the department of
Wence and art of the committee of council on
education, arid practically it is not self-regu
latins, but is under the supervision of officials
tfliO have crotchets and hobbies of their own,
«£4 are accustomed to amuse themselves by
■»mdli,j and unwinding spools of red tape.
Ji«*itrfc grounds for the belief that Sir Caspar
fssjsj Clarke was hampered in the control of
toe raff and In the completion and arrangement
tf tit collections by the fussiness and arbitrary

decisions and prohibitions of department offi
cials. There had been nn investigation with un
satisfactory results, and thero was more or less
friction in the conduct of the Museum on tha
educational side. He had his own Ideas about
adapting art collections to the practical purpose
of systematic training of teachers and students
In schools of science and art and th» "elevation of
standards of public taste. He might not have
/found It easy to carry out those ideas after the
I completion of the new building*, when It would
be necessary to rearrange the collections.
Whatever may have been the motives which
influenced Sir Caspar Purdon Clarke In accept
ing the American appointment, it is certain that
the Metropolitan Museum will pass next Septem
ber under the control of an accomplished man.
He is a systematic w-orker, and has a genius for
organizing art collections, and arranging them
so as to be attractive to the public and useful to
students. His services have been Invaluable
here whenever a special exhibition has been
planned at South Kensington or an Important
section has had to be enriched and decorated at
a world's fair. As a collector he has shown
shrewd, practical judgment, and has not been
duped by mendacious dealers or credulous
owners of overvalued treasures. A close ob
server with a trained eye, he is also a profound
student of art and science. He is a man of
energy and force, laborious by habit, tenacious
in opinions and good tempered in expressing
them. He has travelled in every European
country, and has seen every museum and art
collection; but he enjoys "specially his remi
niscences of India, where he spent much time
and succeeded in completing, with painstaking
care and accurate knowledge, one of the best
departments of the South Kensington Museum.
He is without doubt the most capable and the
best informed conductor of a museum of applied
art in Europe, and Mr. Morgan and the trustees
of the Metropolitan Museum have earned the
gratitude of American art lovers by their enter
prise in securing him for director. Having
found a master of the art pf collecting what is
valuable and Intrinsically useful, they will act
with discretion if they allow him to work in
peace, free from annoyances which have irri
tated him here. I. N. F.
THEATRE MANAGERS GO FREE.
Sunday Theatricals Case — Magistrate Bar
low Lenient with Them.
f ummonses for the appearance of Louis Werba
and Martin Leuseher, manager and press agent, re
spectively, of the New-York Theatre, which were
obtained by Captain Flood, of the- West 47th-st
station, after his detectives had discovered evidence
of alleged violations of tho law regarding Sunday
theatrical performances in that theatre, were dis
missed by Magistrate Barlow, in the West Side
police court, yesterday. The magistrate said that,
whilo the testimony indicated several specific vio
lations of the law, he was inclined to be lenient on
the theatrical men, because he believed a theatre a
better place for a mail to spend Sunday evening
than the back room of a saloon. He told Captain
Flood to note if further violations of the law oo
curred. and, if they did occur, to bring those re
sponsible to court.
The Rev. Dr. Francis J. Clay Mornn. secretary
of the national law committee of the Actors'
Church Alliance, at whoße instance Captain Flood
6ent the detectives to the theatre, paid that lie had
started the proceeding against the theatre In behalf
of the overworked actors, who wished to have a
day oft on Sunday.

Miss Rachel Martense. of Flatbush, who for three
weeks has been fighting bravely against pneumonia

to be only a question of a few dnys at the most.
LAWYERS' MORTGAGE-BOND COMPANY.
Jn alliance with the Lawyers' Title Insurance
Company and the Lawyers' Mortgage Company, a
corporation to be called the Lawyers' Mortgage-
Bond Company is to be formed, whose field is to
be the issuance of long time bonds secured by
deposit with a trust company as trustee of an equal
amount of New- York City mortgages.
In all us essentials this mortgage business would
be the same as that transacted by the Lawyers'
Mortgage Company, except in the form in which
the security reaches the public. By this variation
in form three new markets will be reached— first,
long term Investors who r.ow buy railroad bonds
to avoid the annoyance of constantly renewing
mortgages: second, small investors who are now
unable io purchase mortgages running from $500 to
$1 'w aid third. European investors, among whom
guaranteed mortgages are unknown, only mortgage
bonds being salable. The company Is to be incor
porated with a capital of $2,<KK>.OOO, and a surplus of
fiOO 000; the issue of stock to be 20,000 shares, of a
pur' value of |100. sold at Jli'o. Preference is to be
Kiven in the allotment of the stock, to the stock
holders of the Lawyers' Mortgage Company and
the Lawyers' Title Insurance Company, a certain
;.m6unt 'however, being retained for allotment at
the issue price to outside interests, especially bank
»>s with foreign connections who might aid in
placing the company's bonds in Europe.

Blaze Shortly After Midnight
Threatens Large Part of Town.
Isllp, Lionir Island, Feb. 2.— Fire broke out shortly
before 12 o'clock this mornlne in the Vail Block,
and now threatens to be the most destructive con
flagration that has ever visited this place. Word
was sent to the surrounding 1 villages to send all
the fire apparatus available. At 1 o'clock this
morning the fire threatens to destroy the New-York
and New-Jersey Telephone Exchange, the Orowoo
Hotel, the Leonard block and all the property la
both Bides of the street. The Town Clerk's office
in the Vail Block is also threatened. A high wind
Is blowing Hnd this helps to carry the flames. The
damage now Is not known, and the cause of the

TO ABOLISH BOARD OF ALDERMEN.
Mr. Grout Has Plan to Give the Board of
Estimate Its Powers.
Controller Grout said yesterday that ho believed
the powers of the Board of Estimate should be en
larged, and that several 1 " of the smaller boards now
In the city government should be abolished. lie de
clared:
T would ahcJW] the Board nt Aldermen, the Rapid
Transit Commission, the Armory Board, the Hoard,
of i'ity Record, in fact, all boards, except the Board
of Estimate and Apportionment, and to thut board
i would K'vt> an th« powers that art now scattered
among those other board?. Then the city would
have a responsible head, and we would get some
thing done.
Then: should be more borough autonomy. The
more local government we have the better for us.
"What would you do with the Mayor?" was
asked. Mr. Grout replied:
He would not be a. figurehead. There ;s a Gov
ernor for every State in the Union, and yet tho
Piesldent of the United States is not a lipurehead.
I think it would be a pood plan to vest all ttye
Dowera now enjoyed by tho various boards in a
board of directors for the city. This would practi
cally b« thf- lioard of Estimate as at present con
stituted, with the addition of {our or five others
to bf elected by the city nt large. There could be
a meeting of this council every <J;iy.
