LONDON , Sept. 27. "In Darkest Hussia"
points out that If Huron lurches' scheme Is
successful , It will provide for about 3
per coin of the Hussia Jows. A letter which
first appeared In the Anti-Jacobin nnd which
wnstlgned "An Israelite Wnnderor , " has
been republlshcd In the afternoon papers ,
nnd Is attracting cansiderablo attention.
It strongly defends Russia and declares
that laws relating to .lows are by no means
Rointiultubloiis ( they ara thought to bo.
Referring to the domicile law , the letter says
it has buon never altered , but It has operated
with so llttlo vigor that one-third of the .lows
reside today In government from which they
were excluded a century ago. This ho says ,
is a sign of gradual Improvement , which is
the best to bo expected from n soml-clvillzed
country Ilka Uussla.
Continuing , the writer of the letter men
tioned says that 20,030 Jowa reside in St ,
Petersburg , anil that a similar number re
side In Moscow. "Expulsions , " ho adds ,
nro entirely duo to Jewish violations of law.
Ever slnco Russia opened her cities to Jewish
traders , they have boon recognized by the
guilds of professional man nnd merchants.
It has boon the aim of the Hebrews , who are
excluded from that privilege , to obtain n set
tlement in tbo central provinces. The Guild
of Mechanics' certificates have been forged ,
fraudulent police permits have boos printed ,
and n regular trade In thorn has been prosecuted -
cutod for yours. Certificates have also been
used long after the original grantee was dead
and thus , thousands of Jews , without means
or a trade have settled in Russia , where they
huvo no moro right to bo than n pauper haste
to land in Now York. Numbnrs of mech
anics have also forsaken tholr regular occu
pation nnd have taken to peddllr.g thus
violating the conditions under which they
were allowed to settle. Others left Iho town
where they ought to have remained.
"Between I.IO.OOO and 200,000 Jews now
reside In Russia in open violation of the law ,
owing to fraudulent permits or by bribing
officials. Being undisturbed they soon become -
como moro confident nnd have invested
money in houses which Is against the law ,
and then , when orders are received to en
force the domicile law , the outside world
hears of wholesale expulsions accom
panied with brutality. But every
Jew so expelled courted his own fate.
They all know what they are doing when they
pass the palo of their domicile. Poor Jews
suffer the most from the rigor of the law ,
being , ns peddlers , porters , nnd such like , at
tbo mercy of every potty official , by whom
tboy are hounded from pillar to post.
"If Baron Hit-sen's scheme Includes these
poor Jrxvs it takes up tbo most unpromising
material It is possible to deal with. 1'tioy huvo
neither the physique for hard work no re
source of nnv kind. They andlheir families
must bo supported by money after they leave
Russia until an indollnlto date , when they
cnii maintain themselves. The government
would not allow the capabloniid sturdy bettor
class , who ure all military reservists , to leave
the country.

NEW YOIIK , Sept. 07. A romantic court
ship , which began nt tlio AuHrlan spa Jii ! > t
two years HBO , will end In n wedding In this
city early in December. The prldo-clect
Is Miss Cora Culm , daughter of Air. Henry
Cahn the mtlllonnlfo Importer of 171 East
Sixty-third street , Now York , and the bride
groom is Ilerr Oscar Von Calm of the Ninth
Hussars of DuUo
, nIdo-Oc-cainp Horldotary
Fordln.ind Esto , who will succeed the pros-
est oraporcr , Fran/ Joseph , on the throne of
Austria. What will surprise Miss Calm's
friends nnd co-religionists is tlio fact that
she will rononnco her faith and bccomo a
communicant of the Catholic church , to
which her Intended husband belongs ,
IOVC lit KIl'Ht Si Ilt.
The history of the courtship teems with
romance. It was n case of love at ilrst
sight. Miss Cuhn and Lieutenant Von
Calm mot at Baden , a fashionable watering
place near Vioinm , a year ngo last summer.
She and her parents had .spent the season
abroad and after doitiK Europe settled down
In a villa not far from t'jo springs. Herr
Von Calm first saw Miss Calm on the promenade -
nado , again at an afternoon concert ,
and , so , for two months , the couple
wore thrown Into each other's aocloty
without being formally introduced. The
kind ofllcos of u mutual frlond brought thou
together and from that tlmo they were
dovotoa lovers. Miss Uahn treasured her
affection for the young lieutenant , as'a secret.
She contldod in no one , not oven her parents.
The lieutenant did likewise. And to it hap1
poned their meetings through the season
caused no comment.
Miss Calm Is n strildngly handsome girl ,
19 years old , tall ana distinguished , with a
well rounded liguro. Her hair is glossy
black and her fuco a rich tint , suggesting
her oriental origin.
The season over Miss Cahn accompanied
her pirents back 10 America and Von Calm
ro-Joiuod his regiment. Before parting ,
Von Calm confessed his love , which was re
ciprocated. Ho promised to marry Miss
Calm , provided the gulf which divided thorn
could bo bridged over. This seemed to bean
an almost hopelcst task , in view of the many
obstacles them solves. Miss Cnbu is n Jewess
and Austrian etlquotto does not tolcrato her
race in court society.
Hcrr Von Cuhn belongs to the most ox-
elusive of Austrian families. His father is a
rich retired bankernndhls brother Is premier
lieutenant of the Ninth Hussars , of which
the heir of Hussia , is the honorary colonel.
This brother Is married to the Countess.
Szalary , and the family has many decorations
Stern Parents Objeot.
Beyond her wealth and the luxurious style
In which her parents live , Miss Cahu was un
known. The only affairs she attended were
the soiros given at the various hotels , to
which everybody nt the Spa was welcome.
Von Calm , too , w.xs rich. So much wealth
was not as important its it might have been
under other circumstances. These were the
main obstacles which the ardent houtonant
set about' to remove. His parents refused
point-blank to listen to his suit. They mndo
all sorts of throats In case he oorslslod in
marrying Miss Cahn , ana absolutely refused
to rocognlzo hor. Several officers ot Von
Calm's regiment Interceded in his bejialf ,
but to no purpose.
Nothing daunted , Von Calm turned to his
colonel , Duke Fordlnand , and the duko's
answer was a kind yet a firm refusal. Ho
appluuded the honesty and the sincerity of
his ofllcor's affection , but such a marriage
was out of the question. Ho told Von Culm
plainly that in case it was consummated his
presence nt the Austrian court would bccomo
Intolerable and hence his resignation from
the service must follow. To conciliate the
young man the duke promised to attach him
to his suite when ho ascended the throne , but
oven this tempting offer did not cause Von
Calm to waver in his devotion to the woman
of his choice.
All Obstacles Removed.
For a tlmo ho despaired of over marrying
the girl ho loved. Ho continued to perform
his duties as adjutant of the regiment , but
took no part In Us social affairs. Last spring
ho accompanied the duke to Uorlln to witness
Iho maneuvers of the German armv. While
there ho nguin broached the subject to the
duke and bogged him to glvo his sanction to
the nmrrlnco. As before the duke tried to
reason with Von Calm to whom ho wiis much
attached , but seeing that the young officer
was determined ho llnnlly iuvo his consent
upon the assurance that ho would not marry
Miss Cahn unless she became converted to
the fni'.h of the Austrian court.
Ho wont so near ns to write to Miss
Calm's family , ttatlng upon what terms
ho had given tils consent. Von Calm's
mother , who Is ono of the haughtiest Indies
of Vienna , was the last to glvo In , and It was
only through the kind offices of the duke In
her son's behalf that she flnnllv relented.
Thus the last obstacle was removed , and Von
Calm sent the jovous news to his bride.
U hen Miss Cahn returned to Baden In
.1 uly last , Von Calm proposed nnd was ac
cented.
The girl's parents at first strenuously ob
jected to her renouncing her faith. They
were willing to receive Von Calm ns n son-
in-law , but they were loath to have their
daughter glvo up the religion of her fnthors.
Love finally triumphed nnd the older Cohns
gave their consent. The ungagomont was
not tnado public , however , In fact , every
thing wus none to keep It from being known.
Lloutonant Von Calm obtained it leave of
absence for ono year , and four weoits ago ho
arrived hero on the Normondlit with his
father and took quarters nt the Hotel Bruns-
wlck.
Miss Cahn is RtiH in Kuropo , preparing her
trousseau , and will return early In October ,
on the Fuorst Bismarck , on which passage
has bqen taken for her. Von Calm Is resid
ing hero very quietly. Ho has not made his
prosunco known to any of his many friends
in this city.
Mr. Cahn is ono of the wealthiest real es
tate owners up town , ana Is reputed to bo
worth more than a million. Ho Is nn Importer
of glnsswaro. Miss Cahn Is wall known In
society here , and the news of her marrlago
and the connecting circumstances surround
ing it , will undoubtedly surprise her many
frionds. She is a prominent musician , and
wus hoard In concerts several seasons ape ,
The iirrnngomonts for the wLddlng are not
yet completed , but is pretty well understood
that it will private.

She wns not True.
New YOIIK , Sept. 27 , No man Is bettor
known on the upper Ulalto than Halo Uobiti-
sou. Ho Is n sporting man of that peculiar
typo who make and hold tbo friendship of
mon In every walk of llfo. Ho U a genial
fellow , with the physique of a Hercules
moulded In tbo graceful outline of an Apollo ,
with Jut black hair ami moustache , Ho is a
familiar flguro nt the 'races and Is a great
patron of boxing.
Fouryenrs ago , says the World of this
morning , Robinson wont , to Kuropo. Ho was
very fortunnto In several plays ho made and
won the attention of a sporting nobleman
who is almost as well known on this sldo as
ho U ever thoro. The American was to some
extent made a protego by his English frlond.
They were together so much ns to cause
comment. Then It was learned that "Ml-
lord" was n dovotco of the gntnc that Ah Stti
played so handily. And ho was receiving
practical , though costly lessons from the
clover Uoblnson.
Their First Mcotlnjr.
About that tnno Koblnson was introduced
to Miss Surah Marguerite Froom , said to bo
the near relutlvo of Major Froam of the Urlt-
Ish army. The only innn of that name In the
British army rcgtstnrlsGeorgo Froom , major
of the famous Connaught rangers , retired
last year on half pay. iTho young lady was
n handsome blotido of considerable literary
ability.
It was not the proper thine for "an Ameri
can sport" to meet a young English lady , but
that did not trouble "Milord" who , It is said ,
brought about the meeting nt his own house.
Koblnson attracted the English girl. The
great follow , with the llguro of n giant , nnd
his breezy Yankee w .v was n study for her.
Ho told her in his franir manner tht ho was
not what she might imagine. "lama child
of doUiny , " ho said , "out of your world.Vo
can't bo frionds. "
Hut she persisted. Ho was to her the Ideal
John Oakhurst. She oven talked ever his
good qualities to her friends. This man was
a bluff In a war , yet gentle as a child in the
presence of women. Ho was picturesque
nnd witty. With much tact , no managed to
see her frequently.
Anil They 1V ro Married.
A story In a month'ly periodical proved
how deep was the impression ho made on
Miss Froom. It was Jn 13rot Harto style
nnd wove n pretty tnlo around the American.
Another poem , "Tho Gamester's Love , "
wa moro or loss marked by the influence of
the gaming table. Hero is the final verso :
And If tlio roulette's turn In coming years ,
Should bring another lovo's beautltudo ,
Then lot my soul , arising from Its tears ,
A sigh , sink In dim Infinitude.
The publication of this created a sensa
tion. A trip to tno continent was de
termined upon by her paronts. Arrange
ments were ctfmpleted when it was dis
covered the daughter was missing. The
next morning Koblnson , accompanied by
Miss Froom , took a .steamship at Queens-
town for now York.
Until yesterday the Roblsons lived very
quietly in this city. Ho Is the proprietor of
the Homestead club , His brother , Gcorgo S.
Hobinson , is nn actor. Ho was in Wallack's
old stock company , and also at tha Union
Square theatre. Several years ago
ho was the leading support of
Fanny Davenport , arid Is now leading man
with Kate Claxton. Mrs. Uoblnson has been
ns reserved as Halo was , open nnd frank.
Occasionally men have pointed out a beauti
ful woman , with largo black eyes and n com
plexion so soft and velvety as to attract
attention , who sat ulono In a box at the
Casino.
"That Is Mrs. iJoblnson , " ono would sny.
"You know llulof No ? 1 unny. Everybody
else in Now York does. Well , ho has spent
n fortune on his wife , sends her to Saratoga
an Newport or any where else she wants to
go. Docs ho go tooi No. He's got a barrel
of money , but Coney IMand is good enough
for him. Ho is ono of tbo boys. No biegor
hearted man ever lived. I'll bet that 5,000
raon ewe him over ? 30 apiece. "
Ijovc'a Idols Shattered.
All this domestic /ellclty was destroyed
yesterday. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson hro no
longer ono. Ho wo ? atVay several days and
returned suddcnly-to fbjd that she , too , had
been away. An investigation caused nlra to
rauko a still hunt'ifpn " - ob" T.owroy , the
young son or ComnCJo/j : Lowrej , nnd n
youth of 22. It was Uoblnson's openly ex
pressed throat to chose Lowrey out of the
city or make him light. Friends Interfered
and ho was persuaded to bldo his tlmo. At
2 o'clock nn express wagon drove up to 44
West Twenty-eighth street , several trunks
were bundled into it and It was driven away.
"That's the lost time ho will sco her , " said a
habitua of the Homestead olub. "Halo sot
his foot down and she must go. Ho gave her
a roll of money and told her to find a homo
olsowhoro. Of course ho will see that she
never wants for anything. " There is talk of
a duel.

The writ was granted and uddrossod to the
warden at Brlcavlllo , who is called on to
show cause why ho should not surrender the
prisoner. The writ is made returnable next
Wednesday. Ttiis brings the whole question
before tbo court.
The object is to determine the legality of
the sublease , and if It bo decided that the
convicts cannot bo sublet , then all convicts
must bo taken from those places where they
are now worldlier on sub-contracts. This
would remove them from Bricevlllo , Coal
Crook and Oliver Springs. If the petition
for habeas corpus Is favorably acted upon , It
Is understood that the lessees will tauo the
case to the supreme court of the state , which
Is now In session hero. If they win , those
acting for the convicts will take the case up.
It ls believed that within two months at the
most , perhaps loss tlmo , a final decision can
bo had.

CtiCTFAvn , Wyo. , Sept. 27. [ Special Telegram -

this morning by the nunouncomedt that
Charles Millar , under sentence of death for
the mtirdor of Emerson nnd Flshbaugh , two
St. Joseph , ' ,10. , boys , with whom bo was
riding west In n freight car , and Frank U.
I'arklson , convicted of murder In the second
degree for the killing of a follow so.dlor , Hey
linker , had escaped from the Laramlo county
jail.
jail.Tho
The story of the escape is n very strange
ono. The Jail Is In the roar of the court
house and forms part of that building. En
trance Is effected through the court house
hall way , on cither sldo of which nro doors
loading into the various county offices. At
the oud of this hall way is an iron door
which lends to the Jail. The cells are
enclosed In mi enormous steel cage
which Is placed in the middle
of an oblong room. The Interior is kept well
lighted all night , whllo the court house hall
way Is billllantly lllumlnntod. William
Kelly , brother of the sheriff , is the night
watchman , who Is supposed to stay Inside
tno Jail all night and sco that nothing goes
wrong.
According to his story , about 1 o'clock this
morning there was a rap nt the outside door.
Believing that it was ono of the employes of
the sheriff's ofllco ho oponoa it about six
inches and was confronted with the cold
mu/zlo of n big revolver. It was held in the
hands of a rather thick sot man who were
short wblskcrs and a soft felt hat drawn well
forward
"Throw up your hands , " said the caller and
Kelly promptly compiled. Then on the
invitation of the man ho came out Into the
hallway nnd under cover of the ( fun opened
the door of the sheriff's ofllco.
"Open that , " said the intruder pointing to
the big safe. Kelly compiled with the
request , "Now tnlcoout a pair of handcuffs. "
This order was also obeyed. Kelly was then
told to take a seat in a rocking
chair. Ho was then invited to pick
up a two-foot picco of garden hose at his
feet. This ho was ordered to cut in two.
Having done this n half inch bolt of iron was
shoved through tbo opening in the hose.
Under the sidllfnl directions of the visitor
the night watchman carefully adjusted the
hose to his own mouth and with the aid of
two broken pieces of suspenders had soon
improvised a very effectual gag. The pris
oner was then ordered to put on the hand
cuffs , and this having been done his loirs
were chained to the chair.
"This is pretty tough on you Kelly" said
the energetic follow , "but I can't see an
innocent man suffer so I came hero to re
lease Parkison.1
The man then wont into the safe and took
out such keys as.ho wanted , took .some otue&
from Kelly and fishing n watch out of Kelly's
pocket remarked that it was still in the
"shank of the ovonlng. " Putting the watch
back In Kolly'u pocUot ho told him If ho made
a slnplo moan his Ufa would bo
the penalty and strode into the Jail.
He must have been in there
from an hour to an hour and n half , as about
thnttimo would bo required for u man un
familiar with the locks to lind
his way into a particular coll.
When ho returned ho had two men with
him , Parkison nnd Miller. They rummaged
about for shoos and overcoats. Parkison
and his deliverers took nn overcoat and a
gum coat. Miller , who Is only about 17 yeais
old , found trouble in gutting a pair of shoos
and finally compromised on n pair which ho
partly filled with rags. The entire proceed
ings was cool and leisurely. When the party
got what they wanted they simply disap
peared.
Kelly's efforts to release hlmsolf were fin
ally successful and rushing into tlio Jailor's
residence ho aroused Deputy Sheriff Sharp-
loss. Together they made nn inventory and
found but two birds missing. At 3 o'clock
the police were notified so that n search could
bo instituted , Sheriff Kelly being out of town.
About 8 o'cloclc this morning a couple ot
tramps arrived In town from the cast. Both
had formerly boon Inmates of the Jail and
they notified the authorities that they had
passed the three fugitives. Deputy Sheriff
Oscar Sharpies ? was by tnls time institut
ing a search at the Horford ranch ,
east of town , and J. M. Newman , a livery
man , started down the road with a team. Ho
had ono ot the tramps with him. They didn't
got any trace ol Miller until they reached
Atkins. There a Union Pacillc track walker
was mot. Ho said ho had seen a youth
answering Miller's description , further oast.
About 11 vo miles east of Atkins Newman
noticed Miller on thn railroad track. Miller
noticed him about the same tlmo and sat
down to wait for him. When ho came
up Miller said : "I guess you nro
after me. " Newman said ho was nnd
Miller got into the buggy without making
nnv resistance and was once moro locked up.
Ho said that Cleveland Curloy , n tramp , had
liberated them. Ho was uwakoncd by the
opening ot the cell door.
Parkison , In leaving , noticed Miller and
said , "Charley's awake , let's take him , too. "
Miller claims that they loft him at the court
houso. Ho was footsore , hungry and sun
burnt and so sullen when ho got back
to the Jail that ho would say scarcely
a word , A strung circumstance ) in connection
with tbo affair is that Miller committed Ills
double murder Just a year ago today and at
pretty nearly the same point nt which ho was-
captured ibis morning. He is under sentence
of death aud the date was fixed , but It has
gene by , otvlng to the fact that his case is
being reviewed In the supreme court. No
trace has boon secured of ParklRon. Tno
country Is being scoured for him , but ns his
arrangements for escapn were undoubtedly
complete hl recapture Is scarcely antici
pated ,
Parkison is n rather genteel-looking man of
about ! 15. Ho Is n foot 8 Inches In heluht ,
palo from long confinement nnd with hair of
a sotnowhat darker nhado than his sandy
mustache. Ho was a corporal In the Seven

covered In the machinery storage room of
the Plant Milling company , situated at the
foot of Chutitoau n von no , nnd tlio llatnos
spread so rapidly that the firemen could do
nothing but snvo adjoining property. The
mill was a llvo story brick structure , seventy-
llvo foot front , on Clianteau nvenuo
and 100 feet deep. The ware
house contained 2,000 barrels of flour
and the building nnd contents are In ruins.
The great Height of the building and the
combustible nature of its contents caused
such terrific heat that the Ilro department
was hampered in lighting tbo fierce flames.
A general alarm brought out the cntlro Ilro
department Including the now water tower ,
which wna almost useless on account of the
high walls. At ono time it looked ns If the
whole block would bo destroyed , but ttio
heroic work of the llrotnon saved the adjoining -
ing property.
Ttioruusoof the nro Is unknown. The
mill shut down at midnight Saturday. After
all the fires hud been carefully extinguished ,
and three hours before the Ilro was
discovered the watchman had made n round
of the building nnd found everything all
right. The capacity of the mill 'was 1M)0 )
barrels per day , and was ono of the largest
In the country.
George P. Plant , the president of the com
pany , places tbo loss at $ .V > ,000 , with
Insurance about the same. The orieinul
Plant Mill Company , was established in
1MI , nnd Is ono of the best known In the
country. The mill will bo rebuilt.
About 0 o'clock , after the Plant mill nro
had been got under control , nn alarm was
sounded from Ninth nnd Spruce streets , the
location of the immense warehouse of the
Mansur-Tibbctts Agricultural Implement
company. A Ilro hud started In a sm.ul ono-
story unoccupied building on the corner of
Ninth street , nnd in n few moments the
flames extended to the aix-story building of
Mansur-Tibbotts. This structure was
entirely now , was built on the
slow combustion principle , nr.d wus
thought capable of wlthstimding
nnv kind of a lire , but the owners and in-
surunco companies were doomed to a sad dis
appointment. Tbo building was Illled from
basement to roof with all kinds of farm im
plements , wagons , etc. , nnd tbo Ilro took hold
of them ns though they had been mudo of
paper , and In less than half nn hour tbo entire -
tire building was n muss of llnmcs. The heat
was so intense that the water hud no effect ,
and tbo efforts of tbo firemen were
of no avail. In less than an hour
the walls on alt bides crumbled
away , and what was this morning ono
of the nnest nnd the most substantial busi
ness structures in the city is now almost
level with the ground , and its contents en
tirely consumed. Tbo stock in the wire-
house was valued at about ? 225,000 , nnd was
nearly covered by Insurance. The building
was owned by the Tiffany Heal Estate com
pany , valued at Jino.OOO , nnd Insured for
? 100UOO. The origin of the ttro is unknown.

to the United States govornm.Mit and to

of thojuntii , for what ro.isou does not yet
clearly appear , have for the lust few days
adopted a eour.-to which has had the result of

bo the expression of resentment growing
out of the itnta souuro , which has never
been rightly understood by the congros.
slonnlUts but has aroused a strong feeling ot
antipathy toward Iho United btatos , or It
may bo the determination to mnko It so un
pleasant for Mr. Egau on account of thn
stories spread about his sympathy with
Balmaccdn , as to drive the minister out of
Chili.
Tlicso are only .surmises. The fact is the
Junta has not only been trying to Induce Mr.
Egun to glvo up all those who have sought
refuge in the United Slates legation , but
has gene even further than this. It bus put
forth the claim that it has the right to arrest
any ono , no mutter of what , nationality , who
may bo found on the street or any where
else outside of the four walls of the legation.
In keeping with this claim a number of
foreigners have already been plaood jndor

who were ongaired in business hue. The
matter wont so far that every person having
occasion to visit the legation was ordered to
obtain a permit Jrom the intomlento before ho

this rule a force of police was put on guard
out'ido the legation and patrolled the block
