American Beef and Foreign Sugar.
The meeting of the national live stock exchange at St. Louis last week took decided action upon the inhibition against the importation of American cattle by foreign countries, notably Germany, France, Belgium, Denmark and Austria, on account of the tariff regulation by the United States placing duties upon raw and refined sugars imported from those countries. The exchange will petition Congress for the repeal of the tariff levying differential duties upon refined and raw sugars. A memorial to Congress sets forth their purpose to be the obtaining of relief from the unfortunate embargo placed on live stock, dressed beef and hog products, on account of duties imposed by the recent tariff act upon raw and refined sugar from Germany, France, Belgium, Denmark and Austria, thus practically closing those markets to the United States, continuance of which means disaster to the farming and live stock interests of this country. The memorial continues:
"From 1840 to a very recent date we have enjoyed a large business with these countries, particularly Germany and France. This was undoubtedly because of the fact that in the new tariff no duty was imposed by the United States upon sugar. Under those circumstances these countries could well afford to adapt their farm lands and their efforts to raising beets for sugar production and depend almost entirely upon us for their animal food supply. Heretofore we have been enabled to send our products to them, while they in return sent raw and reined sugar to the United States.
turning found the widow anxiously awaiting him. For some time past he has avoided her and his letters have been cold and comfortless. Mrs. Karr, about six months ago, visited wealthy relatives at The Dalles, Or., but finding that she could not forget Faye, decided to find him if she had to travel over half the world. She found some of the letters marked St. Louis and she went there. She then heard that he was in New Orleans, and she took the next train for the Crescent City. After a weary chase she returned to San Francisco. Word reached her that the gay deceiver was in Chicago. Ten days ago she packed her valise and went in search of him. She says she will become a detective, hunt the wide world over for him and find him if she can.
Havemeyer Makes Money While Crying Bankruptcy.
New York, Dec. 6—For weeks Mr. Havemeyer has been vociferously proclaiming that the sugar industry was practically on the age of bankruptcy. The managers got together to decide on the dividend, but while they talked, the floor of the Exchange bore evidence that a big following of brokers had been let into the secret of just what the sugar managers were going to do. There was some talk of opposition to the Havemeyer plan, but none of the managers would talk. The fact is, after sugar had declined to 89 on transactions of about 175,000 shares, or near half the entire common capitalization of the trust, there came a voice from the board room that the dividend should remain at present, 7 per cent per annum on the preferred and 12 per cent on the common.
In declaring a common dividend it was not even termed a quarterly dividend, and then the explanation was tacked on to the declaration that the dividend was "on earnings prior to September 1st." The gigantic turn had been made and the street sees a 12 per cent stock selling at less than 90, while an 8 per cent stock, such as the New York, New Haven & Hartford is quoted at 193. The difference in these figures measures the distrust which the investigating public have for Havemeyer and his partners. A monopoly which admits of a speculative profit of millions in a few months in these time, even with legislative assistance, is a very fine field to work, and the Havemeyer people are working it for all it is worth.

Austria, thus practically closing those markets to the United States, continuance of which means disaster to the farming and live stock interests of this country. The memorial continues:

This was undoubtedly because of the fact that in the new tariff no duty was imposed by the United States upon sugar. Under those circumstances these countries could well afford to adapt their farm lands and their efforts to raising beets for sugar production and depend almost entirely upon us for their animal food supply. Heretofore we have been enabled to send our products to them, while they in return sent raw and reined sugar to the United States.
"The recent placing of a tariff on raw sugar has destroyed this commerce, for it is an unquestionable fact that the action of these countries is wholly and entirely due to the attitude of our tariff measures in relation to the exportation of sugars, and it must be conceded that livestock and dressed beef shipments will continue to suffer so long as the present laws on sugar are in force. The excuse which is given by these foreign countries for their action in excluding our animal product is on account of Texas fever, but this is understood to be a more subterranean. From 1890, when the exchange of commerce went into effect, up to a recent date, these countries had not discovered an unhealthy animal among all the cargos which we have exported, nor a diseased piece of meat. Indeed, the rigid inspection in this country which is given to all such products before shipment abroad is sufficient guarantee of the quality and the healthy condition of all our animal food product, especially when coupled with the fact that the best grades of cattle and dressed beef are shipped abroad.
In fact, we do not export Texas cattle.
"The motive of the foreign countries mentioned is found in the fact of our placing this obnoxious tax on their raw and refined sugars, and should this be removed or modified at once we know there would be no further fault found with our cattle and hogs. We urge immediate action on the part of Congress toward repealing the duty on raw sugar, and modifying that on refined, thus restoring our pleasant commercial relations with these countries; also the farming districts of this country will be very greatly crippled and our livestock interests very badly injured; as our home consumption is not sufficient to absorb more than a small percentage annually of what we raise. Millions of dollars worth of cattle and hogs and their products have been exported annually from this country to these foreign countries, and until the existing embargo is raised from our cattle, dressed beef and hog products, the loss of this outlet will be very great and cause irreparable injury."
Value of Royal Crownns.
The least important country owns the costliest regal gems. They are all an expensive luxury for the people of those backward countries which still prefer to have kings to presidents. One of the most costly crowns in existence is that of the King of Portugal, the jewels of which are valued at $8,000,000. The crown which the Czar of Russia wears on special occasions is also one of the most precious in the world. The cross which surrounds the crown is composed of five magnificent diamonds resting on a large uncut but polished ruby. The small crown of the Queen of England which is valued at $1,800,000 contains a great ruby, a large sapphire, sixteen small sapphires, eight emeralds, four small rubies, 1,360 brilliant, 1,273 rose diamonds, four pear-formed pearls and 269 of other shapes. In his state clothes, including the crown, the Sultan of Johore wears diamonds worth Austria, thus practically closing those markets to the United States, continuance of which means disaster to the farming and live stock interests of this country.

Portugal, the jewels of which are valued at $8,000,000. The crown which the Czar of Russia wears on special occasions is also one of the most precious in the world. The cross which surrounds the crown is composed of five magnificent diamonds resting on a large uncut but polished ruby.

The most costly insignia of princely dignity, however, is that of the Sultan or Maharajah of Baroda, in India. The chief ornament is a necklace of five strings containing 500 diamonds, some of which are as large as hazel nuts. The upper and lower rows consist of emeralds of the same size.
Any one who has children will rejoice with L.B. Mulford of Plainfield, N.J. His little boy, five years of age, was sick with croup. For two days and nights he tried various remedies recommended by friends and neighbors. He says: "I thought sure I would lose him. I had seen Chamberlain's Cough Remedy advertised and thought I would try it as a last hope and am happy to say that after two doses he slept until morning. I gave it to him the next day and a cure was effected. I keep this remedy in the house now and as soon as any of my children show signs of croup I give it to them and that is the last of it." 50-cent bottles for sale by Joassen & Dorge.
Mrs. Lizzie Karr, widow of a San Francisco police officer, and well known as the matron of the receiving hospital there, is in Chicago, badly deceived woman. She accuses W.C. Faye, formerly a traveling man, and now connected with an electric burner company, as the one who has trifled with her affections. He is 50 and has a wife and grown daughters. Mrs. Karr went out to the family home and asked Mrs. Faye to identify several letters which she claimed were in Faye's handwriting, and in which he called the fair widow his wife. The letters were not acknowledged, but the atmosphere in the Faye household immediately became quite tropical. The widow says that two months after her husband died in San Francisco, and while she was at the receiving hospital, she became acquainted with Faye, who laid claim to being a great medium. During their spiritualistic seances, in which many messages arrived, supposedly from the dear departed, the two became intimate. Later Faye brought a spirit communication, in which she was told that it would be quite proper to marry again. Then and there the two plighted their troth. Faye shortly afterward went on a business trip and on re-

He says that these fates given by directors and superintendents cause the squandoring of thousands of dollars of State funds. After a mere cursory examination of the expenditures by commissions and other State institutions he declares that, at a glance almost, he could readily see where $100,000 a year could be saved to the State without in any way interfering with the efficiency of any of the administrative departments of the State.

They had known each other from childhood, and when Huke was arrested a few days ago, charged by the firm for which he worked with grand larceny, she refused to believe that he was guilty. To emphasize her confidence in her lover she prevailed upon her mother to get a license for her. Mrs. Brown finally consented, and accompanied by her daughter went to the jail, where the brief ceremony was performed. The evidence against Huke is strong, and will likely send him to the penitentiary. Mrs. Brown is thinking of placing herself in a dime museum.

Harry McKay, the 17-year-old son of Mrs. Henry McKay of Chicago, went to a cigar store and there met a number of boys of his age, one of whom standing near the cigar lighter, took a penny from his pocket and held it over the flame. It soon became hot and burned his fingers, and the other boys laughed at what they considered a good joke. Some of the others took pennies from their pockets and all had lots of fun getting their fingers burned. McKay did not have a penny piece but he did have a piece of copper which he had been carrying for a year or more. So he pulled it out and held it in the flame of the cigar lighter. Almost instantly there was an explosion and a great report, and the young man was thrown clear across the room. Showcases were shattered, windows were broken and everyone in the vicinity came running in, all certain that some one had thrown a dynamite bomb. The boy was picked up out and bleeding and suffering intense pain. He was carried to a doctor's office and subsequently sent home. He is just able to distinguish with one of his eyes. He had made a pocket piece of a dynamite fuse.
The east-bound Texas and Pacific passenger train was held up at trestle seven miles west of Fort Worth, Tex., at 5:30 o'clock Thursday evening. Several shots were fired from the front end of the train, and the passengers were warned to keep their heads in the windows. The train was detained ten or fifteen minutes, during which time those who caught glimpses of the proceedings saw three masked men with guns leveled; marching the engineer and trainmen in and out of the baggage car. When they finished their work the robbers made the engineer back the train over the trestle, and while it was crossing they disappeared in a thick forest. The passengers kept so close in during the robbery that they did not know much about what was going on. The robbers had possession of the express car until they accomplished their object. One valuable package is known to have been obtained, and the safe of the messenger was carried off. Upwards of $100,000 was secured. The whole thing was done so quickly that there was little of a story to tell. Later developments show that the robbers got $31,000 in gold certificates going from San Francisco to Washington to pay for bonds.

She was launched over 20 years ago, made her successful trial trip near age and has since been waiting for her four of which are on their way hither to the East.

Miss Celia Flower, belonging to a family social standing in Detroit, left home to do the day with a friend. The night she entered the railway station at Newen, on the grand trunk road, some distance north of the first-named city, and asked warm. She had evidently slept on frozen ground outside for several hours. The hours later the section hands saw her kneeling along the track.

Itail elegantly dressed woman stood on corner of Lafayette and Nostrand avenue, Brooklyn, the other evening, scattered coin by the handful among a crowd youngsters. She was about 30 years of her features were clear cut and refined, a mass of rich chestnut hair was twisted knot at the back of her head. She was only intoxicated, and was taken in charge of policeman. The Captain was surprised the apparition of a fashionably dressed man in such a plight. He noted curiously my detail of her black silk dress, with its trimming of lace and jot. His astonishment caused when he began to figure up theIBLE cost of her magnificent fur wrap and value of her diamonds and other jewels sparkled on her fingers or glitated at throat. The value of the gems could have been less than $3,000. The woman named the name of Mary Brown, residence Vendome, but she afterwards admitted was not her name. In her pocket was a draft for $1,000, issued by a San Francisco bank and made payable at a big special institution in Wall street, in favor Miss Mary Woumack.

Eddy Redway, who plays in "1492," was cowhed in his dressing-room after the matinee at Indianapolis the other afternoon by Nellie Jackson. Miss Jackson is understudy for Marie Hilton, whose serious illness at St. Louis has brought her to the front. After Tuesday night's performance she and friends were celebrating in their rooms. Redway's room was next, and he remonstrated against the noise, declaring that Nellie was a person who could not pass in good society, or words to that effect.

The case of J. H. Coleman against the estate of John G. Downey is occupying the attention of the Los Angeles Court. The plaintiff claims that in the years 1863-1864 he handed over to the late Governor Downey the sum of $5,000 in trust for him, and of this amount he has received only $600 in return.
September 1, 1891, the late Governor Downey employed him as his companion and while the position was sufficiently oneous his salary has never been paid. He therefore claims $4400, being the balance yet due on the trust money deposited with Governor Downey, and $7230 salary as companion up to the time of the Governor's death. The defense make a general denial to the several allegations, contending that the claim for the balance of money deposited in the hands of the Governor is barred. While denying that the plaintiff was employed as companion on salary, a counter-claim is set up that Coleman owes $100 on a promissory note dated November 7, 1893, and the Court is asked to award this amount with accrued interest.
Rev. Conrad Haney, one of the most prominent of Chicago divines, eloped with Mrs. George W. Brandt, wife of the manager of Price baking powder company. Haney was pastor of the aristocratic Union Church on Lake Avenue, and was recently prominently spoken of as the successor of Prof. David Swing in the pastorate of Central Church. He left a handsome wife and four children, and is said to have taken all available funds with him, leaving his family destitute. It was stated that Brandt had suspected intimacy between his wife and the preacher for some time, and followed them and caught them together at a down-town hotel. There was a stormy scene and Brandt gave the minister twelve hours to leave town. Haney did not wait so long, but fled immediately, accompanied by Mrs. Brandt.
William Folke who was committed to the insane syllum at Highlands some time ago, returned to his home in San Diego, having escaped by tying his bed-clothes together and lowering himself out of a window. His derangement was due to overwork, and his recovery was speedy, but to his appeals for another examination no attention was paid, and after enduring months of unforced treatment for insanity after he was well, he lost heart, and decided to free himself if possible. He was five days on the road afloat to San Diego. His family is in reduced circumstances, and the birth of twins to his wife recently served as an additional stimulus in his attempt to escape. Arriving at home he advised the asylum authorities of his whereabouts, and he was arrested at their instance, to be returned to the asylum.
Count Ferdinand de Lesseps, the celebrated French engineer, died in Paris Friday night. During the night he received last saeoration. De Lesseps' greatest achievement was the construction of the Suez canal, joining waters of the Red sea with the Mediterranean, which was formally opened November 17, 1869, with great ceremonies, in the presence of the Empress of the French, the Emperor of Austria, the Crown Prince of Prussia, Prince Amadeus of Italy, Prince William of Orange and many other distinguished persons, who were entertained with magnificent hospitality by the Khedive. De Lesseps has been decorated by almost every sovereign of Europe. In February, 1870, the Paris Geographical Society awarded him the Empress prize of 10,000 francs, and in July following the honorary freedom of the city of London was presented to him. Since the completion of the Suez canal he has suggested a number of important projects, including the conversion of the Sahara desert into an inland sea; the cutting of a ship canal through the latmus of Corinth; to connect the Gulf of Lapanto and Egina; and a Central Asian railroad to unite directly the south of Europe with India; but his most important project, and one in which he was interested up to the time of his death, was the Panama canal, which yet remains to be pushed to a successful completion.
Legislation Costs Money.
The United States Senate is the most expensive legislative body in the world. Its bill for mere incidentals runs up to more than the total cost of the British House of Lords.
There are 88 members of the Senate whose salaries aggregate $440,000 a year. It spent last year on the salaries of its employees $418,000; while the House of Representatives with 356 members only spent $415 on its clerks and attendants. It takes $130,000 to pay the mileage of the House members; that of the Senate amounts $45,000. Summoning up it is calculated that each Senator costs the country about $12,000 a year; making the aggregate for the whole body about $1,056,000 per annum.
But this criminal waste does not stop with the Senator's life. He comes high even dead. A Senator who dies must be embalmed at an expense ranging from $50 to $100. He must have a casket to coat $20; kid gloves in quantities must be provided; attendants and hangers-on of various kinds are paid a per diem from time the breath leaves his body until he is put in the ground. Carriages must be provided for all who may wish to ride. If he is to be taken home, Pullman cars must be bad for the funeral party at an expense of $1,000 to $2,000 or more. It matters not, as the cost is to be loaded upon the shoulders of Uncle Saw. Meats and lunches for the trip, with the liquora to wash them down, run up to hundreds more. The Government is even asked to pay the ministers who say prayers.
We are in the habit of holding up our hands at the cost of royalty in Europe. Extravagance of this sort would produce a revolution in England. It is calculated thatthe House of Representatives costs about $250,000 a year. Thus our Federal Legislature costs
Hotel Vendome, but she afterwards admitted was not her name, in her pocket was a draft for $1,000, issued by a San Francisco bank and made payable at a big special institution in Wall street, in favor of Miss Mary Woumack. The woman passed night in the station house and was fine on morning on a charge of intoxication. Escaped with a homily on the evils of temperance. At the Hotel Vendome it stated that Miss Mary Woumack had staying there for some months. She last August from San Francisco and once engaged a suite of the most desirable rooms in the building. She did not seem to any visitors and lived when in the quiet but luxurious seclusion. The is knew little about her exopotheta that she always paid her bills promptly and in any way misconducted herself. They much surprised when they heard of her.
Gale of wind blew so strongly on the plains between Sacramento and Davis last Friday night that Ben Charmack, co-land resident, while going from one another was blown off the platform killed. Charmack left the smoking-car at his ticket from his overcoat in the passenger-coach and as he was passing from one to the other he lost his balance and was off the platform.

Is believed Charmack committed suicide When the conductor came around he neither money nor ticket. A friend of to pay 50 cents, but the tare to Wood is 70 cents, and the conductor would have nothing else. The friend said that should pay the fare to Davisville, but the conductor refused to accept it. Charmack led to the rear car to find a friend from him he could borrow 20 cents, and that the last seen of him alive. The Coroner's will investigate.

Miss Josephine Brand of Lawrenceburg, Ind., was robbed of $10,500 in cash on the streets of Cincinnati one night last week. Miss Brand is a teacher, and had added to her savings a small inheritance from her father. She kept her money in the Central Trust vaults. Intending to have the money reinvested, she drew it, putting it in three rolls, which she placed in a hand satchel, and she went out to catch a train. In a crowd some one came behind her, seized her satchel, jerked it off her arm, pushing her violently forward, and escaped without leave.
Insane syllum at Highlands some time ago, returned to his home in San Diego, having escaped by tying his bed clothes together and lowering himself out of a window. His derangement was due to overwork, and his recovery was speedy, but to his appeals for another examination no attention was paid, and, enduring months of enforced treatment for insanity after he was well, he lost heart, and decided to free bimself, if possible. He was five days on the road afoot to San Diego. His family is in reduced circumstances, and the birth of twins to his wife recently served as an additional stimulus in his attempt to escape. Arriving at home he advised the asylum authorities of his whereabouts, and he was arrested at their instance, to be returned to the asylum. Physicians and county authorities who have examined the man will take measures to secure his release, for it is believed that his actual recovery can be made plain to the asylum authorities.
California is making a valuable showing in the eastern food market this winter and of a character, too, that will be welcome in the condition of some fruits that have not turned out well. Heavy supplies of the new crop of dried fruits and raisins have gone east from California thus far since the season opened. The receipts of raisins at New York have been 264,720 boxes and bags, chiefly boxes, 116,000 of which went through to the New England states. The totals of dried fruits, including peaches, apricots and prunes, were 154,444 boxes and bags, 46,.554 of which were shipped direct to New England. Besides these articles there have been received nearly 20,000 bales of hops and 41,500 barrels of wine. The shipments are by no means over, as much will be added to the eastern stock during the winter.
