last night by the apparition of q woman,
bare-headed and in her night dress, rush.
ing madly up Louisiana avenue towards
Sixth street. He overlook her just as she
was entering the law Office Of Cook & Cole,
and to his amazement discovered that it
was Mrs. Lille Christiancy, defendant in
the celebrated divorce suit. Her hair was
streaming over her shoulders, her feet
were devoid of any covering whatever, and
she was scratching wildly and ~viciously at
her face. The ~janitor endeavored to per-
suade her to go home, but she broke away
from him and exclaimed that she would
never return home again. She wanted to
see her lawyers on very important bust
ness. Her shrieks attracted quite q crowd,
and a gentleman kindly volunteered to re-
lieve the officer of his charge. A carriage
was quickly summoned, and the unfortu-
nate lady placed in it and driven to her
residence, about four squares from the
spot where she was first discovered. Her
rawlings were terrible to listen to as she
was borne down Louisiana avenue. 1t is
asserted that the evidence submitted by
| the prosecution in the divorce suit for the
past week or two has been of a damaging
character, and Mrs. Christiancy has con-
stantly brooded over it. 1t was impossi-
BILE for any one to see her tonight, as she
was under the doctors care, whs had pre-
scribed absolute quiet, and given her a mar
cotic to induce sleep. Her moan could
plainly be heard on the sidewalk, and
passers-by were attracted by the unusual
sounds until q crowd had gathered in the
| vicinity of the house. The affair created
considerable excitement in this city, ow-
ing to the fact that the parties are so well
known. The construction put upon her
conduct is that her troubles have driven
her mad, and that the next step in the case
may be to send her to the Insane Asylum,
New Telegraph Enterprise.
New YORK, Nov. 23.-The new telegraph
enterprise, known as the Mutual Union
Telegraph Company, promises to be Of
vast Importance to the press and public
of all sections Of the country. James
Gamble, the General Manager Of the new
concern, says that it will be run purely as
a commercial enterprise. Keene is
~bondholder, but will take no active part in
the direction Of affairs. Unlike most tele.
graph companies that have started hereto
fore, the Mutual Company does not pro-
pose to hamper itself with a press associa'
ton of its own, to compete with the Asso.
ciated Press or the newspapers. 1t is
stated by its manager that no efforts will
be made to gather and supply news to pri'
vate individuals and to the press. They
will, however, transmit the service Of
press associations or individual newspa'
pers at low ~rates-lower than is done by
the Western Union ~Company-and it is
expected that by this arrangement a large
share of the special service of newspapers
will find its way to the new company.
