Interesting news comes from
Buenos Ayres in the shape of a
statement that the Argentine
wheat crop, contrary to expecta
tions, will develop a surplus which
will admit of the export of 1,100,
000, tons of wheat during the new
crop year. This is equivalent to
40.000,000 bushels of wheat a
larger amount than has been sent
abroad since 1895, and the largest
amount exported except in 1894.
The crop will be harvested in a

The falling off in the number of
commercial failures in 1897 is a fine
illustration of the solidity of the
business improvement ol that year.
Of course the aggregate volume of
trade thronghout the country in
the year was greatly in excess of
the exhibit of 1896. This renders
the reduction in the financial mor

preceding twelve month, and it was
done under safer conditions. More

While the railways already in

new railway construction. Low
water mark in railway building
was reached in 1895, when only
1.803 miles of new track were laid,
and the increase over this record
in 1897 was only sixty-one miles,
the,nev track for the year amount

"l!eWidtBatealB Another Wny Strange '
, Story of aa Old, Grewsa-uio Jelting
Hobiq la Saa Francisco. .
In 18G7 there stood au old fashioned
ghanty east of the locality now occupied
by the firesentation convent, in front of
the graveyard, and the people in the
neighborhood- tised to tell strange stories
about this grewsome looking dwelling.
For sereral years its occupancy was ap
parently confined to a decrepit old man,
who used to crawl in and out about once
r day, his arms filled with packages
from the market.
He was known in the neighborhood as
the old dago, though in reality he was
a native of Alsace. For several years he
lived a hermit'B life, and the neighbors
got so accustomed to his comings and
goings that even the small boys forgot
to molest him. But one morning all the
gossips found food for conversation by
theappearance of a remarkably lovely
young woman who went out to and re
turned from the butcher's stall and the
grocer's. She spoke English imperfectly
and with a very pronounced French
accent. This little cabin was destined
to be the scene of a very dramatic inci
dent in the history of California gam
bling. It was natural thatra girHts-prefctytrs
Irene snouid nor. be long witnont aa
mirers, so it came to pass that the win
dows of the old house were lighted up
every evening, and the Frenchman de
veloped the natural hospitality of his
race and gave little dinners and suppers
to his exiled countrymen. But among
those, as was only natnral, there were
some who existed not by honest indus
try, but by the gaming table. Among
them was a young man of striking ap
pearance who had served in Franco as
sous officier in a hussar regiment, had
gone the pace, ruined himself, and final
ly drifted out to San Francisco, where
he became the hanger on of the gambling
table.
Louis Le Marronais was a strikingly
handsome specimen of tho Parisian of
his class. It did not take him very long
to gain the confidence of the old French
man, and to him he confided the story
of his life.- It -was not a very eventful
one. He was a member of an old French
family and could use if he pleased a
titlo which dated back to Charles the
Bold. He had been ruined by the ex
travagance of his younger brother and
was then living on the incomo of a lit
tle property in Brittany, which ho had
saved from the wreck. Irene was his
'OnrrfchiJtffasd iwiMoliaadyher.-JPor her
sake alone be wanted to be rich. He
wanted to take her back to France and
reinstate her in the position to which
her rank entitled her.
The ex-hnssar won tho old man into
the belief that his only chance of getting
rich was through gambling. So night
after night old Lescant was found at
the El Dorado or some other gaming
hell losing his money under tho direc
tion of the arch mentor. One night Irene
followed him there to bring him back,
and her first visit was a fateful one.
Tom Monroe, a Kentuckian, one of tho
wildest and most reckless characters of
that period, saw her, admired her and
swore that she should become his prop
erty. It is not necessary to recito the inci
dents that led up to the scene, which
were related to me by an eyewitness. It
is sufficient to say that Le Marronais
had convinced the old Frenchman that
Monroe would stake 50,000 against
the hand of Irene. If he won, she was
to become his wife, but if he lost the
money was to become the Frenchman's
property and Irene was free to bestow
her affections wherever she pleased.
Irene was informed of this proposition,
and she looked resigned and rather
amused at the transaction.
The eventful night arrived. Monroe,
the old man, Louis, Irene and a friend
and countryman of the host were tho
only inmates of tho little room. The
game was ecarte, and the cards, which
Louis had marked, lay upon the table.
The old man got the deal. Monroe's cer
tified check for 50,000 was placed in
the custody of the hussar. The old man
marked the king in the ''first deal, and
when the pack changed hands he had
the best of tho game. The play went on,
and in the last hand Monroe scored every
point.
"Irene is mine!" shouted tho Ken
tuokian, reaching for his check.
At this moment the lights were dashed
out, and Monroe fell to tho floor from
the stroke of somo heavy instrument.
The only disinterested spectator of the
scene fled from the room. The next
morning there was no sign of life in the
old house, and in the evening when tho
milkman knocked he heard a groaning
from the inside. Ho forced his way into
the house and discovered the wretched
Kentuckian bound hand and foot. Mon
roe, avowing murder, rushed the next
morning to the banking house. The
check had been cashed by an individual
who answered the description of tho
hussar. The other actors in this star
tling scene were never heard of. Nothing
in the house was disturbed, not even
the girl's wearing apparel, and the inci
dent becamo a portion of this strange
history of old time gauibliug in San
Francisco. San Francisco News Letter.
