Chicago Times The president said in
conversation with friendly caller that
he believed from what he had heard
that this weeks session of the senate
will decide whether there is to be q
fight extending through his term OF
office. He had no reason to expect
that the issue would be postponed
until after the holidays, but would be
made almost immediately He is nerv.

fight, but is at the same time quietly

tors. The nervousness of the president
at the outset of this Gght does not indi>
cate a belief in his failure. He thinks,
upon the contrary, that he must win in
the end. His friends say that if his
own inconsistencies were out of the
way, his position would be an impreg>
nable one. Conkling's plan was to
defer as long as possible any issue but
the talk of the president indicates an
intention upon his part, to force the
fighting.

Novel II, each OF Promise SHIT.

A breach of promise suit, involving
some novel features has been commenc.
ed in the circuit court of Richmond
Virginia, in which Pauline Ruhle,g a
young German lady of high social posi-,
ton, is plaintiff, and Ferdinand Neu,
rath, a Wholesale candy manufacturers
is defendant. Miss Pauline puts her
damages at $4,000. She AYERS in her
complaint that the defendant made love
to her in March last. and received her
promise to marry him, since which time
she has made every effort to get her afli.
anced to fulfill his engagement, and had
on divers occasions approached him and
insisted that he should carry out his
promise. Neurath. on the other hand,
does not deny the soft impeachment of
the girl, but offers as a reason why he
should not marry her, that her breath
Is bad, and has summoned several of the
girls female friends to confirm the as,
sertion. The parties are highly con-
nected, and the case has excited no lits
tie interest. Miss Ruhle is stylish
brunette of about twenty, and Neurath
q portly and wealthy widower of fifty,
