Riot nt Rooa' Konit House.
Iloos' road house , just outside the cit ;
limits , on Lonvcnworth street , was tin
scene of a disgraceful riot about 10 o'clocl
last nighl In which an aged gcntlcmai
named Steele was horribly beaten by tin
proprietors of the place , who in tun
narrowly escaped the vengeance of i
mob composed of the injured man'i
Jridnds. Stcele has been employed 01
the construction farce of the Oniali :
Uclt line and , while working near Hoes
place , run a bill nt his bar. Koos wen
lo the contractor who had employot
titoelo and asked that the amount dm
him bo kept out of the latter'j
wages. The contractor refused te
do this nhd referred ttooi
to Steolc himself. When Stcele went U
Iloos' place last night Koos asked hin
about the bill , which ho said amounted
to $0.33. Steele denied that he owed st
largo an amount. Hot words followed
nnd resulted in Koos making an assaul
upon Steelo. Though nn old man , Steeli
held his own well and would have been t
match for his assailant had ho not boot
pounced upon by Koos' two sons , young
able-bodied fellows. The three nssailanu
then treated Steele fearfully , knocking
him down and pounding him in nhorribh
manner. They ceased their brutal as
saUlt only wncn they discovered thn
their victim had sustained a brokei
limb m the meloo. Some of Stcelo'i
friends had arrived by this timi
and hn wns picked ill ) nnd removed f rou
the ulace. When lus fellow employe :
learned how he had been assaulted am
nbuscd their anger know no bounds , am
n party of them started for Iloos1 place
determined torevongothooutragp. Thei :
purpose would undoubtedly have bcci
carried out had they not boon met b ;
other and moro sober employes and citizens
zons , who succeeded in averting a riot
As it was , the party took possession o
the place and for an hour or moro i
scene of great confusion prevailed.
Stcele was removed to St. Joseph 'shos
pitnl and given the necessary medical at
tcntion. In addition to his broken lej
lie has sustained serious cuts and bruise
about the head and tacc.
TWO JIAU1) CASKS CAPTURED.
McCarthy nnd Paltnmrth , Two Cns
County Thieves , Captured by
the Omaha Police.
On Saturday night Captain Connie !
effected the capture of two men who ar
the leaders of a gang of thieves and wh
have been wanted in Cass county fo
moro than a year. They are Vic Me
Carthy and Mike Paltmadh , Both me ;
were indicted by the Cass county gram
jury about a year ago on the charge c
hog stealing , but managed to evade th
ollicors and make their escape. The ;
are well-known characters , and are suj :
posed to bo the leaders in a number o
grand larceny offenses which have gen
unpunished in Uass county. They hav
made their headquarters near Plaits
mouth , and have been the terrors of own
crs of horses.cattle or any other liv
stock that could be easily stolen am
run out of the county. Sine
their indictment by the gram
jury a year ago Sheriff Kick
enbarry. of Cass county , has epen
f a coed deal of time and money in an en
deayor to effect their capture. A rcwan
of $50 was offered for the arrest of th
men , and all of the police authorities o
the state furnished with descriptions o
them. The search has been unsucccss
ful , however , until on Saturday evening
when Captain Cprmiek and Officer
Miit/.a and Harrigan , who were return
ing from the cigarmakers' picnic , mo
the two offenders on the Bellevue roai
and placed them under arrest. The ftigi
tivcs became as dumb as clams upoi
their arrest and had nothing to say wjiat
over. They were quietly removed to tin
police elation anil a telegram sent t <
Sheriff Eickenbarry , notifying him of tin
capture. That gentleman arrived in th
city on Sunday , and on yesterday re
turned to Plattsmoiith with his prisoners
Ho was greatly pleased at having necoin
plished the object of a year's work , am
feels that the arrest will re.sult in tin
breaking up of the gang ofQthioves tha
has infestetl Cass county for several years
committing all manner of depredation
and successfully evading justice at tin
law. *

The committee on buildings roportei
that they had let the contract for an ad

] i There were twenty-four bids prcsentei
I f for the erection of the new school build

opened by the board when it was fount
that the lowest bid for the constructloi
of the building was $25,01)0 ) , and rangci
from that to $30,000. , This amount bomj
.greater than the limit allowed the bean
the bids Avore , on motion , rejueted am
the clerk instructed to advertise for nev
bids.

A special meeting of the board will b
held at 0 o'clock this afternoon to confe
with the architect of the proposed build
ing with a viuw of making certaii
changes in the plans that may lessen th
cost of the ( structure.
, The question of providing the school
with free text books the coining year wa
then discussed , Mr , Copeland movei
that the secretary bu instructei
fo advertise for bids from the publisher
for furnishing the test books. Thi
brought un the question of quantity niv
the ( notion gave place to one offered b ,
Mr , Llvesoy , that the superintendent e
schools bo requested to f urnibh the boar
with an estimate of the number of book
* of the different kinds that would bo n
quired for nbo iu the next school year.
Superintendent James spoke concorr
ing the adoption of now school reader ;
Ho did not think it advisable to order
complete set of readers of any series. 1
was uls experience that Indents learnci
moro rapidly , and did more otfectiv
work by u cluiuge of scries of reader
'tluin ' by 11 cb.anj.jo ot grade of the sain
- * - Ho also recommended that th
use of the fifth reader bo discontinued
in the grades below the high school , a
the selections in the fifth reader nov
used arc beyond the comprehension of tin
students below the high school. As i
substitute ho recommended the use o
two Horics of fourth readers.
After a desultory discussion of mine
matters the board adjourned to meet ii
special session nt 5 o'clock this aftoi
noon.

on the southern terminus of the drain
The line ut this point runs through tin

NOT A MILLIONAIRE'S CLUB ,
The United States Senate Said to Contain
Very Few Men of Wealth ,
111reo Senators from the Pacific
Const \Vlio Possess Enor
mous Fortunes.
Considerable has appeared Intcly in
tlio papers about tlio millionaires In the
senate , writes a Washington correspon
dent In tlio Now York Times. An inac
curate idea exists regarding that body of
inon. Senator Ingalls once said , in n
good humored way , that the senate was
"a club of good , honest follows , ' . ' and ho
meant only that , taken by and largo , the
seventy odd members of the chamber
were us creditable to the country as any
equal number of men that could bo got
together from the various states. Ho
was doubtless right in that opinion , and
I imagine that ho did not desire to rele
gate to the senate any claims of righteous
ness beyond these made by xll respecta
ble citizens. His remarks , which ho has
been accustom to repeating freely , un
doubtedly gave ) the cue for the expression ,
"Tlio Millionairesclub. . " Let us look
over the men from the gallery , assuming ,
of course , that they are in their places ,
which , it is sad to say , is taking n purely
poetical license.
Suppose wo begin with Maine. Very
well. The lirst face wo see is thnt.of Mr.
Halo , who , surely enough , is a rich man.
His large moans mostly cnmo to him
from his father-in-law , the distinguished
Zaehariah Chandler , of Michigan. Ho
Ijvcs comfortably but without ostenta
tionand deserves the comforts ho enjoys.
His colleague , Senator Fryo , ' has Only
his salary and law practice to live on.
Ho is an earnest , hardworking member ,
and is young enough to make Ills fortune
yot. Crossing over to Now Hampshire ,
wo find thai. Senators Blair and Pike both
live within their salaries. His said that
the former occasionally takes a timid
"llior" hi the real estate of his beloved
state , but in a very small way , and not , I
am assured , with gratifying success.
Uoth these men are quiet , modest men ,
anil their choice is creditable to the
legislature of their state. In Vermont
Senator Edmunds is probbaly the wealth
iest member of the upper house fiom
Now England ( excepting Mr. Halo ) . But
ho is a lawyer of pre-eminent ability ,
and had ho deserted politics ten years
ngo might have gathered in enough
largo fees in his profession to have mailo
him a very wealthy man indeed. Ho is
not inordinately rich now. Senator
Merrill throughout his long life has been
economical in his habits' , has saved a
reasonable amount of money , but is not
oven to bo called rich.
How is the outlook in Massachusetts ?
Not a rich man ! Senator Uawcs is very
poor. As I hoard him say the other even
ing , ho began life as n tanner's boy and
had never Known anything but toil and
struggle over since. His colleague Mr.
Hoar is to-day at a linaneial low-water
mark. What little means ho had was re
cently lost in attempting to build a homo
for his declining years at Worcester.
Much sympathy is felt for him by his fel
low senators. The old Montagues and
Capulots of IlhqJo Island arc not hero
any longer. Their places are lilled by
two men of moderate means. Senator
Aldrich is as handsome as anybody on
the lloor Ho is in trade at Providence
groceries , I believe. Ho attends to his
duties carefully and systematically. Sen
ator Chase is a quiet Quaker , who lives
scrupulously and within tile limit of his
salary. Senators Platt and Hawley are
almost top well known to need mention.
The first is a , studious and active man ,
without large means , and the second is
the editor and mainspring of a Hart
ford newspaper. Ho is rich only in abili
ty and friends , though ho' has made his
journal an excellent property.
Leaving New England , the middle
states may bo briefly scanned. In New
York Senator Miller is only relatively a
wealthy man. He undoubtedly enjoys a
good income from his manufacturing
plant and his patents. But his money
was all made lioforo ho went into poli
tics , and his success is creditable innvory
sense. "Our own Evarta" is rich only in
his bright intellect. His capacity for
exacting largo fees is commensurate only
with his talents. But he has no great
vested interests , and his income must suf
fer greatly by his presence in the senate.
In New Jersey Senator McPherson is
fairly entitled to bo called rich. Ho accu
mulated his fortune by thoroughly com
mendable business methods. I do not
think he claims to bo a millionaire , but
his friends assume that he is. His col
league , Senator Scwell , is a sturdy wo-
duct ot hard work. Ho is comfortably
situated in life , and no more. Ho owns
a pretty house in Canulen , and manages
the largo railroad properties inlriisteu to
his care , with shrewdness , Senator
Mitchell , of Ppnnsylvania , is in very hum
ble circumstances financially. Ho has no
greed of money in his composition. Sena
tor Camerom is worth probably $2,000,1)00 )
or ,000,000. , His fattier was iilcntifictl
with many of the great improvements in
his commonwealth , and during his long
lii'o gave his son and successor the bone-
tits of his experience and wisdom. The
son is a shrewd business man , and knows
a safe investment when ho sees it. '
Contentment is the main thing after
all. Look at Senators Salisbury and
Gray , of Delaware. They dwelL-ln a
snug little state , where a modest income
is not held in disrespect , and where their
salaries siitlico to make them indepen
dent. Neither man is rich , and neither
has the taint of avarice in his blood.
Senators Gorman and K , K. Wilson , from
the adjacent state of Maryland , are com
fortably fixed , so far as the world's goods
go. Neither can complain of poverty ,
but they are far from the border lands of
wealth as ( Jxeil , for nxample , by the
Pacific coast or Fifth avenue.
Suppose wo hasten westward. Both of ,
Ohio's senators are very rich. There is
no disputing that fact. But how of In-
dianaY Senators Voorhees and Harrison
are not Crojsuses by any means. Tho'Tall
Sycamore" is rieli in a fund of humor
as exhaustless as the asplinUum lake
at Trynadad , but money does not haunt
his dreams or his pockets. Harrison is a
good liver , a quiet , agreeable person , who
warms up occasionally and deals hard
political blows , but ho is not rich. Sena
tors Logan and Cullom , of Illinois , como
under cxuctjy the same category. Gen.
Logan may bo worth $50,000 or $70,000.
but not more. His public life is pure and
untainted , and he owes his greatness not
to any influence of money , but to Mis
sturdy and imperious honesty , Mr. Cul
lom resembles President Lincoln in other
respects than fuciitlly. Hu is poor. A
hard worker , ho finds little time for so
cial festivities and less to accumulate
wealth.
The northwest docs not disclose to our
sight any very rich men. In Michigan
Senator Palmer has accumulated a fortune -
tune in the tobacco trade. It has been
the slow work of years and the result of
much chewing on the part of the well
pleased customers , but senator Conger
is blill poor , and his devotion to the duties
of his public life threatens to keen him
so , Crossing the lake to Wisconsin wo
wo find two excellent specimens of the
great northwest. Senator Sawyer is rich
above the average , but makes no parade
of it. Senator Spoonor has only his
youth , quick , bright talents as a lawyer
to earn his fortune for him , Ho lives on
Capitol hill , quite near Senator IngalU ,
and gives his bust , energies to his con
stituents. Ho is with Koima , of West
Virginia really one oftho j > romisiig |
young men of the sonata. In irlinneaotn
neither senator cuu count his wealth as °
greater than many of his neighbors. Son
ntor Allison , of' ' Iowa , Inherited a largi
part of his wealth , but It is not fabu
lously largo. His bollcnguo , Mr. Jnmo
F. Wilpon , is a" heat , gray bearded oh
gentleman , who , t has comparatively lit
tie means. ' t
In Kansas bothi senators are dopondcn
on their salaries. * b
But the Pacific1' ' corfst ?
Yes ; the sonatqTs from California
Oregon , Nevada'.1 ami , by n stretch o
geography , 1 might , include Colorado
are known to bo'vorj wealthy. Senator
Stanford , Fair dnaj Hearst have mori
inonoy than all the inombcrsof the sonati
and house put ilogether , I suppose
Senator Jones linsi got rich again fron
lus Alaska mines' ' . '
But tlio solid south ?
True , it is solid in its poverty. Senate
Colquitt , of Georgia , Is a rich man , I sup
pose. Sonatoi Camden , of West Virginia
certainly is worth three or four millions
and Senator Mahono , of Virginia , ha
probably one million to bless him whoi
lie leaves the chamber. Senator Brown
of Florida , has probably half as much
but that is the end of the story. Tin
southern senators are poor. Possibly
five out of tlio thlrtyhavo an income a
crcat or greater than their salaries
There is little use in naming them.
Now that I think of it , I am satislioi
that there are as many rich men in tin
house as in the senate. They will hi
harder to find , but they are there.
The Increase of Storms.
St. Prtttl mn r Piri.
It does not seem possible any longer t <
question the assertion that violent storm
nro Increasing in number and intensity
Doifbtloss that increase is far less that
the imagination , filled with pictures o
recent ruin and forgetful of the past
would suggest. Still , wo can harillj
doubt that it is real. This season the :
have been unusually numerous am
destructive. The summer months have
not yet begun , and 'there is scarcely :
section of tins cauntry which has no
borne its blow. From almost over
state has come , nt ono time or another , i
report of ruin , while the hurricanes o
this week have covered the whole of tin
great middle holt of the continent as fa :
cast as Pennsylvania. And as if to shov
that no special caiibo , but some grca
general influence were at work , the vor
latest report of the tornado details it
ravages in Spain. What can bo tin
cause underl.t ing this vast dcmonstra
tion must bo a subject for interestinj
conjecture. There is not as yet even :
tenable hypothesis. From such effect
as were wrought at Sauk Ilapids wo tun
away completely mystified. But wnoi
tlieso storms begin to put their deadl <
girdle around the earth entire , it seem"
that we ought to find at least semi
plausible SDcculation. There is none.
The electrical accompaniments are tot
marked to have evaded observation , tint
it has been suggested that the cnormoiii
increase of machinery , upon every bel
and pulley of which electrical energy ii
constantly accumulating and passing'
to storage in earth br air , together witl
the multiplication of electrical circuit
for which the earth acts as a ground wire
may have some : crmsativo connectioi
with these almosjiherte phenomena. Tin
conception- the oaf th as a vast Loydor
jar , at whoso discharge the elements an
convulsed , is an interesting ono , but to <
fanciful. It can harrfly receive substan
tial support from science. Beyond sucl
guesses there is llttlo to bo said
But there is one thing that wide
do know , ono disturbing Influence whiel
wo have done our host to accelerate. I
has passed beyond question that tlio progress
gross ot forest ( festftietion is an impor
tan I factor in the pr&iluction of nlimatii
excesses. The Siicrftnsing denudation 6
the eaith's surff > ct'toniTs to make ex
tremc changes. The root-filled reser
voirs of the soil do not retain a rainfal
to be doled out as vegetation needs , bu
the bare earth alternately bakes undo :
the sun and sheds the storage of tin
clouds into destructive torrents. Tin
moisture of the air is not drawn out gen
tly , but is accumulated until it riibhei
down in tierce sheets. Temperature ii
not graduated to suit the requirement
of animal and vegetable life , bul
fierce heats and freezing cold destroy
stroy the equability of a temporal !
clime. The million electrical conductor :
which existed in every leaf of the fores
are withdrawn ; and the consumiiif
energy , like heat and moisture , is accu
inulated until it vents itself in violent ex
plosions. Whatever bo the first or ( inn
cause of the storms which now draw t <
themselves attention never given before
they find an ell'oetunl aidand promoter ii
the felling of our torohts. Tlio economii
advantage of forest preservation havt
been admitted in theory ami spurned ii
practice. Perhaps the.subjoct will com
mand a bettor alh'gianco when wo an
made to understand that we are not onlj
cutting from under us visible sources o :
wealth , but are aild.In < r annually to tin
resources of the dreaded tornado.

AN AMERICAN ADVENTURESS ,
Death at Nice of Fanny Lear , Alias Hattii
Blaokford.
HER WORLD-WIDE NOTORIETY
Numerous Escntmtlca In America niu
Europe Her Ijlnlsoti With a llus *
slan Or.-uul Duke , N'opliow
of the C/.nr.
Fannie Lear , the famous adventuress
whoso death at Nice was announced bj
cable the other day , was known to thous
anils in Philadelphia , her homo and birth
place. Her mother and child , the formci
now a gray haired old woman nnd tin
latter nyoung lady grown to womanhoot
are both living hero in retirement. Hoi
father's church 1 * still standing , tin
house she was born Is quite unchanged
and some of the men who were her y\o \
Urns and some who no doubt were a !
much or more to blame are among the
prominent citizens of Philadelphia.
Up to the time of her marriage Hatth
Ely , which is her true name , had nothing
moro to her detriment than the vanity
ambition , and willfulness that are sc
often accompanied by such great beauty
as she undoubtedly possessed. Hoi
father , the Kov. E/ra Stiles Ely , namoti
after hia maternal grandfather , who was
chaplain to congress , succeeded the llev.
Dr. Alexander as pastor of the old Thin1
Presbyterian church , at Fourth and Pine
streets and became the most prominent
minister of the denomination in Philiv
dolphin and one of the most prominent
in the United States. He was of Puritan
stock and both his father and grand
father , on both paternal and maternal
sides , were ministers. This is the sort ol
niicestry that Fannie Lear came trom ,
Ministers for throe generations on her
father's side and her maternal grand
father's.
After Dr. Ely's death , while his widow
was traveling in Virginia , Hattic , then
10 anil very beautiful , accidentally met
with u young man named Blackford ,
who was employed as a freight clerk in
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad freight of-
lice at Parkorsburgh , W.tVu. Lroin a
casual meeting on the train she fell iu
love with him. Ho followed her and a
week afterwards , while the mother and
daughter were on the way to Phila
delphia , Hattie left the train on the pre
text of going to buy a sandwich and al
lowed her mother to go on alone. Join
ing Bhicktord they drove to a convenient
clergyman and were married. At the
time she was very mature and precocious.
Within a year her husband began to go
to the bad. Whether she had anything
to do with it is not known. He became
addicted to drinlc and their life was un
happy. She became gloomy for awhile
and then gay. Her husband died.
Many conflicting stories of his death ex
ist , and it is hard to tell how it was
caused. Some blamed his wife , but ho
was at this time a physical wreck , and it
seems most probable that he committed
suicide. Just after the war the widow
came to Philadelphia with her child and
begun to attract great attention. For n
while she was employed in the mint.
Her lirst unpleasant notoriety was ono
summer at Long Branch , where she cut
a great figure and wns much talked about.
Then she came to Philadelphia anil be
gan to be socially ostracised. She was
next prominent at tlieMqyn ball , and her
name was associated with tlio famous
man about town John Tobias , who afterward
' " " Elliott. On
ward marricd'"Daisy" one
occasion bhe said : "John yon are the
most notorious man in Philadelphia , and
I am the most notorious woman , and I
think we owe it to society to get mar
ried. " At one time she seriously deliber-
ateit on this stop. Some time after this
she began to ligure unpleasantly in the
courts and was spoken ot as a black
mailer. She brought suit for breach of
promise , etc. , against u now well-known
Philadelphia artist , and , although sym
pathy was on his side , she secured a ver
dict of § 5,000. Then she endeavored to
wreck the domestic pence of her counsel ,
who was one of the most eminent lawyers
in Philadelphia. It is claimed that she
entrapped him in nn unfortunate posi
tion and secured a large sum of money
from him. Then she furnished u house
on Kittcnhouiso street , nnd not only be
came a notorious character herself and
helped ruin many mciij but wns instru
mental in seriously damaging the repu
tation of a number of prominent women.
Her Louse wns the resort of the most
fashionable club men and some of the
most prominent professional men. There
is a prominent city official , now in ollico ,
who on one occasion while at her house
discovered that under a delusion a lovely
and estimable lady was about to bo en
trapped into her dwelling. At the door
he stopped her and saved the reputation
of herself and family. About this time
there was another case in which she wan
payed a. lingo sum by a gentleman now
prominent in the Philadelphia club ami
who objected to having his name publicly
associated witji hers.
Her cstrnpudus were almost legion.
Finally she was threatened with prose-
cation , and , leaving here , started upon
her foreign career. Her name when site
lirst went abroad was associated with a
great racing man nnd owner of one of
tin ) finest yacht- ) afloat , and a short time
afterward she began lo be notorious in
Paris. . ' 'When Lloyd Phiumx , the Now
York millionaire , was about to bo mar
ried , Ilattie Blaichl'ord , or Fannie Lour ,
us she then begun lo call herself , claimed
to bo married to him and caused a great
scandal in Now York. The relatives of
tlio lady he wai to marry investigated
thochargit and tound it utterly false , and
the ina'rriago wassolcmnUcd. After that
there was hardly a month in which the
cable wns not burdened with her exploits.
She became acquainted with the prince
of Wales , and was for n time a tavorito
with his set. She was also in with the
fast royalty and aristocracy of Franco ,
and , it is said , was for u time employed
diplomatically.
The culmination of her romance was
in llussia. it-wns in the winter ot 1871
that she met ono night ut a ball the
Grand Duke Nicholas Constantlnowich.a
cousin of the present czar1 of all the
llussins. At that time she was still iv
woman of extraordinary beauty. She hud
dark hair in great profusion , and nn im
perial sort of forehead , broad , open , and
white as ivory. Her dark eyes flushed
under her long lashes like diamond ! , , uiul
wore all aglow with wit and kindness.
The nose was linn , yet with that delicate
aquiline which denotes resolution and
courage. The mouth was full and soft ,
the upper lip small and formed like a
bow. Her teeth were as living pearls
and her complexion dnz/.liiigly fair.
Little feet , small hands and taper fingers ,
a figure such as a fairy might envy such
is the description of the American beau
ty who on that night stole the heart of
Grand Duke Nicholas. She did not stop
there , but stole also the diamonds of the
weak young man's mother , The
grand duke was n big , heavy ,
stupid young man , fierce and brutal
in hfs passions , but really
not in the least insane , as they
pretended him to bo. The course of the
true love of the "G. D. , " as she delighted
to call him , with Mi i > Blnckford did not
run uniformly smooth. When under the
influence of rage or wine "no beggar in
his drink could bo more foul in his Jan-
gunge than his imperial highness , nor did
ho confine his unmanllness to speech.
Truth to toll , ho frequently beat Miss
Blackford. and ono night , in a lit of jeal-
onsy , he blackeuod her eyes and bruised
her from' head to heel. This uentle jict
very nearly brought the liaison to an un
timely end , for Miss Hlackford. holding
nn American passport , claimed the pro
tcction of the United States minister
Mr. Jewell , which would have boor
afforded her had she not upon the lasl
moment decided upon keeping quiet ,
The theft of the diamonds was finally
discovered , anil the adventuress was
thereupon escorted across the frontier ,
whllo the gnvmi iiujjo was sent far Ink
the interior.
The young woman then returned to
Paris , where for a couple of years her
low vlstoria , with Russian horses , anil
isvhrostchio , in blue gaberdine anil
square cap , was ono ol the sights of the
Dots. In an evil moment , while at the
high tide of her dubious prosperity , she
wns tempted to write a book , and in the
nutunin of 1875 , with the aid of a hack
writer of the boulevards , she astonished
nnd delighted the Parisian world by n
volume entitled "Lo Roman il'uno Amor-
icninocu Uusslo. " The text of there
inanco was , of course , her liaison with the
Russian grand duke , who figured in its
pages as the "G. LV Her anticipations
were more t linn justified , nnd she became
tlio reigning sensation. Her book was
suppressed by the police , all copies on
sale at the booksellers were released and
she herself was ordered to quit Paris al
the express demand , it is said , of the
royal family of Russia. Hut the sensation
was continued by the pale of her nlTeets at
the Hotel Druot. The crowd there
on the day the articles were on
view was enormous. Some of the things
wore ver y handsome , and particularly
her drawing room furniture , which was
covered with black satin , relieved with
pulllngs of pink. Her dining room
chairs were in crimson morocco , stamped
on the back with her monogram in gold.
Her glass and chinaware 'wore also very
elegant , but n good deal abused and
chipped. Ono of the objects that at
tracted most attention was a long , high
book case in line marquctrio , containing
n number of elegant bound volumes.
The busts ana portraits of tlio royal fam
ily of Russia , were included in the sale ,
ns was also the furniture of the cele
brated "weeping chamber , " all hung
with black velvet sprinkled with silver
tears , wherein these art mementos of
the most noted passages in the lady's
career were placed. A largo portion of
her wardrobe was also disposed of , in
cluding a splendid Chinese embroidered
opera cloak , which had boon so well
known at Mnbillc and in the Boise.
The Hlackford , on her expulsion from
Paris , betook herself to Italy , where
her charms , always fatal to youths of
royal blood , soon untangled tlio young
Count Mirafiori , tlio left-handed son of
Victor Kmmanui'l , in her toils. Rut this
time the fair American reckoned with
out her host , or rather without her
hostess , for the mamma of the young
gentleman , the celebrated Countess
Kosiiitt , was not going to stand any non
sense of that kind. So the count , who
was , of course , a married man , was in
formed by his mother that if he did not
at once and decisively return to his homo
and his wife he should be forthwith or
dcrotl oft"on military duty , while the po
lice were charged with the task of po
litely showing la belle Anierieaine out of
his majesty's dominions. It is said
that the fair lady's interview
with the chief ot police was
most amusing. "I'll write a full
account of this to the Paris Figaro , "
quoth she , in a passion. " .Madame , will
you begin now ? Here arc pens , ink nnd
naper , " was the courteous rejoinder.
However , the Italian authorities did
things handsomely ; they paid all the
lady's hotel bills and sent her oft' in good
style. Driven from Italy , the Rlacklord
yearned to return to Paris , and was per
mitted to do so on condition of her giv
ing up to the French authorities all the
letters , portraits , heirlooms , etc. , that
were presented to her by the Grand Duke
Nicholas. All ot these curiosities , many
of which were liigrily prized by the Rus
sian imperial family , wore disgorged and
sent to their rightful owners. The ad
venturess settleudown to a comparative
ly quid" life in the gay capital and was
soon lost sight of by the world ut largo.

Wheat was dull and spiritless. Tlio early
openlnp was at Saturday's closing prices , but
the market was without vtgoious support
from any quarter , although the decrease In
the visible was estimated at 1,600,000 to .2,003 , -
000 bushels. 1'orelgu markets came In steady ,
anil frost and storm news Mas abundant.
Outside conditions were favorable to holders , 1
but quotations Imllcated the im-domltnuico
of a tlllTercut sentiment In the pit , for prices
slowly but steadily declined from very near
ly the beginning. Juno was the firmest
month on the list of futures , nnd August the
weakest. The first hour and the last halt
hour were the weakest of the trading diirlnc

was no sale there for the COO , 000 or 700,000

Later dispatches were received by grain
merchants that freight room had been en
gaged In two steamers for 135,000 bushels and
that other engagements for a much larger
quantity , which has not yet been located ,
Imd been made. Tills news checked tlio de
