Many millions at dollars in plate, jew- els, stacks, bonds, caigh and other desira.. ble things are locked in the vaults of the Imre deposit companies doing business in New York city. Therm naillions are guard, ed with scrupulous care. So much Pm- tection is thrown about them that their owners are obliged to subnilt to restrIco t1on In haudling their property WhiCh would be galling Indeed if the reason was not obvious. • There Is a fortune for a daring thief behind the vaults' steel doors, and the sight of riches lying easy of aecese has turned many a well mean - Mg but weak man into a rogue. -- • , This is one reason why a visitor at the offices oi these companies, be he patron or not, is regarded with embarrassing suspicionand why the man who desires to become a customer Is forced to submit to an ordeal faintly. Suggestive of the Spanish 'inquisition. Mark Twain trans- formed the old adage 'about putting "all Your eggs in one basket" into the smart epigram, "Put all per eggs in one basket and watch that basket." The eafe deposit company has all its "eggs" in one basket, and the wafchers of that basket are Ar- gus eyed. Of the 26 companies doing business In this city 17 are independent organize- tious, and the remaining eh; are identified with parent banks. The capital of the In- dependent companies is over $5,000,000, and the value of the riches in their keep- ing may be roughly estimated at from 40. to 50 butes that amount. One representa- tive down Own company has in Its sub-, terranetin vaults 17,000. steel cot:apart- .ments, 'ranging in size trom boxes 16 by 8 by inches to safes in which a 10 -year- old boy might steed upright. The annual rental. of these compart- ments yaries from $5 in the -one ease te $800 in the other. The smelled boxes are large enough ler a comfortable for- tune.

When the man with the money bag passed title successive bar- , riers, he gives the key .to his box to an attendant; •who is • distinguished amotg his fellows because he poesesseg a truly remarkable memory. Ile knows the per- • son to whom each one of the 17,000 boxes belongs, If there were 27,000 •boxes, he would knots' their 27,000 own- ers. He wouldn't brag atenit it either. • His memory is the most valuable asset in his business. • •. • •• • When this Mnemonic wonder. has re- ceived the key to any one of the boxes, • he goes with, the customer unerringly to the right mintier. and, unlocking the box with the necessary aid of his own key, he carries tbe steel drawer to one of many little rooms equipped -with scissors, •paste, pen, ink and the like. Here the • customer locks himself • in. •When he leaves, the process is reversed, and at length he arrives on the sidewalk' with considerable idea ot Ms importance ••to the company which has the good fortune to safeguard his wealth. •' A person Who wants to rent a laoi is • severely catechised. Bus pedigree' to the third and fourth generation Is deemed es- sential. His age, his profession, his hab- its, even his hopes and aspirations, are put on record. A few days ago air old gentleman and his wife,who were either the possessors of suddenly acquired wealth or recent arrivals in the city from • up the state, called at a Broadway safe deposit company for the purpose of rent-. Ing a box. The box was to be catered in the wife's name, and her husband was asked if the wife had any peculiarity by which she could be identified. The old man hemmed and hawed and robbed his chin doubtfully. "Well," he said at length, tioolting at hie: wife out of the corner of his eye, • "well, I roust admit that Alice leetle quiek tempered." , "Why, William," was the retort, "I haven't said a mean thing to you in going on 86 years." •• "Nowl-Alice,t" said her Inisterad, fen - Ing for an opening, "don't you reeollect the time" - "No, I don't, and you don't neither." At this point the examiner thought It best to Interpose. Ile guild that the mat - tee Of identification would be waived. The eseential parts of eac'h applicant's record are communicated to the attend- ants, who arerequired to keep intelli- gent watch of the drift of patronage. A woman who expected to meet a Mend In the vaulton a Saturday morning asked an attendant if any one bad called to see her. • "Not today," was the reply, "but your sister was here last Thorsdaysfternoon," a statement Which was perfectly true. Instances of this watelifulness inlght be multiplied. • • • ' Poisons who don't have to worry about where their food and clothes are coming from are proverbially emoted& This care- lessness is the cauee of much trouble to safe deposit companies. One Woman left a pearl rope worth $28,000 lying on the table in a room she had just quitted, and another was mildly anxious beeause, as • the confessed to an attendant, she didn't • know what she had done 'with bowie which a Modest valuation put at $80,000„ Evidenced of thOtightfulness are afforded by the liste of found valuable) posted each week.

"At first blush it may appear paradox- ical that a Man or a woman may be alive In the departaients, reporting for duty when netzsielt, drawing pay and breath- ing and eating and at the same time be a corpse. But of the typo of clerks of which I speak, they are to all Intents and purposes, from an official standpoint, dead. • "These clerks are forgotten. They are buried.

They were put at desks, and they remained obscure and overlooked, Even their chief may not know how they got there.
