NEW YORK , Sept. 25. Todaywas
"judges' " day at the Mazet Investigation.
A number of the judges of the city wore
called regarding the opinions of different
members of the judiciary as to the advisa
bility ot the passage of n stringent law
prohibiting it ho paying of election expenses
by the candidates for judicial offices. Thin
action was taken , Chairman Mazet ex
plained , at the request ot the City club ,
the Chamber ot Commerce and other bodies
of a similar character.
Justice Edward Patterson of the appellate
division of the supreme court was the first
witness of the day. Ho testified that ho
paid several thousand dollars. He could
not remember exactly how much. Ho
thought the -political1 parties needed money
for legitimate expenses , but that It would
bo a great relief and a wholesome thing if
contributions were not allowed.
Jnstlce Glldersleovo's election expenses
were $4,000. Ho opposed the' payment of
largo suras , but did not object to reason
able expenses being paid by judicial can
didates.
Justice Glcgertch paid Tammany Hall ? 5-
000. He did not see why judicial candi
dates ought to bd exempt as long as politi
cal parties needed money.
Justice Scott's expenses were $9,955. Ho
thought it would bo an advantage to the
public It all candidates , judicial Included ,
could be relieved from election expenses.
Justice Blschnff paid Tammany Hall | 10-
000. He thought judicial candidates should
be exempt.
Justice' McAdam said ho paid $10,000 at
the time of his nomination. He did not see
why judicial candidates should be exempt.
Justice Dugro said he paid $10,000. He
thought a law doing away with contribu
tions would bo a good thing.
Justice Fitzgerald paid $5,000. He fa
vored a law forbidding contributions by
judicial candidates.
Justice Beach paid Richard Crokor $5,062.
Ho know ot no rcaoon why a judicial can
didate nhould bo relieved ot < the payment
of leglttmnte election expenses.
Justice Henry C. Bookman paid $4,797.
Ho favored exemption for judicial candi
dates.
Justice Truax said he paid over $1BOO.
Ho could see no harm In the payirfcnt of
small sums.
Justice Charles MacLean said that no
suggestion had ever been made to him to
pay a campaign contribution. He had no
opinion aa to whether It would bo a good
lining to abolish the system ot assessing
candidates for the bench. The committee
adjourned until tomorrow.

eral U. S. Grant , husband and wlfo was cel
ebrated nt All Saints' chapel here nt noon
today. The assembly of Invited guests , not
able for social nnd military distinction , made
the ceremony ono of the most brilliant ever
witnessed fit Newport.
The family nnd eocla\ connections of the
brldo gave to the wedding a military , ns well
as a diplomatic character , and the little
church In which it took place was bright
with blue nnd gold , the bridegroom's uni
form easily outshining those ot the home
guard.
A large number of the Newport summer
colony had delayed their departure to at
tend the wcdddlng , which came ns a climax
to ono of the gayest seasons over known at
this popular resort.

church In Rome , but , In accordance with
the laws of the state of Rhode Island , Rev.

city read that portion of the service which
legally united tbo distinguished pair.
A reception followed the wedding cere
mony at the Palmer residence and late this
afternoon the prince nnd princess left forj
Now York and St. Petersburg.
All Saints' chapel , which scats not quite

time set for the ceremony , and the guests ,
as they waited , viewed a wealth of decora
tions In green and white. The walls and
colling of the chapel were hung with vines ,
wreaths nnd white flowers , -while the entire
altar rail wag covered with white roses. On
the altar and chancel were suspended a large
number of baskets filled with orchids , Inter
mingled with a chime of snowy floral wed
ding bells. Largo garlands of brides' roses
depended from the bolls to two Italian col
umns , forming n bower which almost hid
from view the 'bridal party as It stood at the
altar.
OrRiiu Ftiriilnlien the Mimic.
The only music was that of the organ ,
which gave out the notes of the "Lohen
grin" wedding Siarch as the procession en
tered the church doors. At the same time
Bishop Potter and Dr. Porter , vested for
the service , entered the chancel from the
vestry , followed by the Prince and Honore

Newport and John Prentlss of New York.
Miss Grant was gowned In white. Her
dress was severely cut , but of the richest
white satin , with a sweeping train 'and' ' veil
of tulle. She carried a shower bouquet ot
stephanotls and lilies bt the valley and
wore the gifts of the bridegroom , a corsage
ornament of diamonds and enamel and rope
of pearls.
The prince , as ho stepped down from the
chancel to meet the bride , was attired In
the full uniform ot the chevalier grade , bril
liant with red and gold.
At the chancel the ushers separated , three
passing to one side and three to the other ,
while the prince stepped down to meet his
bride.
The oral part of the services finished , the
organ burst forth with the wedding march
and the prince and princess led the way to

WASHINGTON , Sept. 25. The Industrial
commission today listened to a statement
conceinlng the operations of the Tobacco
Workers' International union from E. C.
Evans of Louisville , Ky. , founder of the
order , and Its secretary and treasurer. He
said that about SO iper cent of the tobacco
manufactured In the United States was pro
duced by the two combines known as the
American nnd Continental Tobacco com
panies , nnd he expressed the opinion that
such combinations were not beneficial to
labor. He cited one instance In which throe
manufactories had been absorbed by the
American company , throwing 500 and GOO
employes out of work. In another case
wages had been reduced from $2.50 to $1.25
per day after consolidation.
Mr. Evans said that women stood on the
same footing as men In the union , voting
and holding office and drawing the eamo
wages. Ho considered the indifference ot the
negro to regular hours or to a systematic
scale of wages as the greatest obstacle In
the way of the organization in Ihe south
ern stalee. ' „
The commission will not meet again to
take testimony "iifttll October 5.

No Liquor SclIliiK Thin Year.
Ono of the questions the management has
had to contend with In holding the fair In
post years Is that of selling Intoxicating
liquors upon the grounds. John Armstrong ,
a member of the executive committee , Bays ;
"Heretofore In conducting the fair It has
been the policy or the local management
to glvo to the public the statement that
there would 'bo no liquor sold upon Iho
grounds , and the statement was no doubt
given In good faith , Dut owing to the fact
that the guaranties were secured hero In
Yankton , n goodly portion being given by
those 'Wishing n privilege to soil upon the
grounds ; enough pressure was brought to
boar upcn that management to at the last
moment gain the , desired consent and liquor
was eold , Dut this fall It will > be different ,
I can assure the public. Notwithstanding
the fact that the guaranty has been raised ,
practically the sarao as done In prior years ,
the state board will take the matter in
hand and live up to the law. There need
bo no fear this year that the fair will bo a
disgrace In any sensa of the word , cither
by the selling ot Intoxicants or the running
of Immoral shown on the grounds. Thcro
are one or two shows now on the grounds
of a questionable character , which I shall
Investigate thoroughly , and If they are such
they -will have to go Immediately. I will
lake these matters up personally and flght
them to a finish and , If necessary , at my
own expense. It Is our policy this year to
run a clean , respocta'blo and up-to-date
fair. "

BALZAC
says :
What nrc wo to nmke of the fact that ,
although Honoro do Balzac died in
1850 , yet "now , on'-tho very eve of the
twentieth century , no fewer than three
translations of his novels , each putting
forward pretensions to completeness
more or less justified , nro offered to the
English-speaking world.
One of these , Issued by * * * of
Boston , has been In course of publcn-
tion for some years ; * * * it lias
this demerit , that MANY OP THE
VOLUMES ARE ABRIDGED , and AL
MOST ALL OF THEM ARE EXPUR
GATED.
A second translation is being brought
forth in London under the editorship of
George Saintsbury ; the prospectus
OMITS NO FEWER THAN EIGHT
VOLUMES of the Paris Edition Defin
itive.
STILL A THIRD TRANSLATION
