We have been taken to task for saying that we dealt exclusively in fruits and at the same time furnishing some of our friends with choice dairy butter at p cents per pound, with superior quality of maple syrup in bottles or by the gallon, with pure strained honey and many other articles. We shall continue to do not only this, but to buy in the New York market many goods not strict ly in our line of business if our customers re- quest it, but superannuated poultry and an cient vegetables will have no place in what we propose to make the most attractive and popular headquarters for fruits in this vicin- ity.

NO NEWS FROM THE Fae 0N1r-
 The Reported Battles Between Ser- vians and BuIgarians Only Small Fights.
 LONDON, Dec 11-No particulars of the reported defeat of the Seryians yesterday in attacks on three Bulgarian outposts have yet
 been received and it is not considered abso- lueely certain that any such engagements have taken place. Bulgaria would have an object in reporting such violations of the truce at this juncture in order to create a feeling against Servia while the conference of the ambassadors is discussing the settle
 ment of the difficulty. An official dispatch from Belgrade states that the reported fights
 were mere accidental encounters between spying parties and have no significance what ever. King Milan assures the powers of his purpose and ability to obey their mandate to keep the peace pending their final decision. There is no news from the front to-day and so far as known no change in the diplomatic situation.
 BELGRADE, Dec 1.-The Servian govern
 ment has proposed that the powers shall ap- point military commission to establish a line of demarcation between the Servian
 and Bulgarian armies in their present posi-
 ton to be respected by both sides pending the settlement of peace.
 LONDON, Dec. 12.-A dispatch from Con- stantinople to the Times announces that all
 the powers represented in the Balkan con ference have agreed to recognize the union of Bulgaria and Eastern Roumelia. The powers
 have also approved King Milan's proposal of
 military commission to demarcate an i'm passable line between the Servian and Bulga- rian armies. The commission hes been ap- pointed and it's labors will occupy month. oft fha during that period and can hardly fail to se- cure peace. The Times says editorially that the eastern difficulty may be regarded as definitely settled

 MADE CRAZY FROM RUM. An Infuriated Husband Shoots His
 Wife and then Drives a Bullet Into
 Himself
 NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-James Murray, of 246 Loomis street, Brooklyn; came home crazy drunk to-day and began to abuse his wife. The woman tried in vain to pacify him. Suddenly he drew revolver and fired three shots at her, two of which took effect under the left temple and the third passed through her throat. She ran down stairs and into the street screaming for help. After shooting the woman, Murray fired another shot into his head back of the right ear. He then ran out of the house and ran through several streets until he fell ex- hausted. Both husband and wife were finally conveyed to St. Catharine's hospital where Murray's wound was pronounced fatal and Mrs. Murray's probably so. The woman says her husband had no ill-feeling against her, but often abused her when drunk.

In Regard to Appointments by the
 President.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-While the Repub- lican caucus of Senators to-day failed to adopt plan to govern the consideration of the presidential appointments, it is quite evident that there is disposition to confirm all nom nations except those made to fill vacancies caused by dismissals resulting from charges preferred against Republican ineumbents. In these cases the persons removed will be af- fcrded an opportunity to meet the charges prior to the confirmation of their successors. Of course there will be number of individ- ual objections to combinations, but the gen. eral sentiment prevailing among Republican Senators does not indicate that the President is going to suffer much annoyance at the hands of the Senate.
 Appropriations in the Senate.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Whatever may be the result of the effort on the part of the House of Representative to distribute among its several com mittees the annual appropriation bills, it can be authoritatively stated that there is no disposition on the part of the Senate to change it's present method of handling those bills and they will all be referred to the Appropriation committee for revision and report.
 The Rules ofThe House.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The question of modifying the rules of the House was dis cussed for two hours and half tonight by the Committee Rules. All the members were present and the debate was quite spirited. The principal propositions-those submitted by Messrs. Morrison and Springer which contemplate the distribution among the sev- eral standing committees of the greater part of the work heretofore done by the Com mittee on Appropriaticns-were very gener- ally considered, but this discussion took such a wide range that it was found impossi- ble to reach conclusion tonight; therefore at 10 o'clock an adjournment was taken until tomorrow afternoon. Speaker Carlisle says the House will adjourn immediately after the reading of the journal and the committee will resume it's consideration of the subject. When ask ed tonight by United Press representative if the indications did not warrant the belief that his proposition would be adopted MT. Morrison excused himself with the remark, 'If that was the case I should not feel at liberty at this time to say so." Ia answer to further inquiry MT. 1 Morrison said the committee will agree upon 1 a report tomorrow, which will be submit l ted to the House on Monday. | gree changed eaNlier predictions that the l proposition submitted by Mr. Morrison will l oe made the basis of the report of the com | Dittee
