MRS. GRANT AT R1vERsrpE

ksscorted By Her Son The Widow
 visits The Resting Place of Her
 Husband-TremblIn With Emotion
 She Is Led Away While Curious
 stand Around Watching The
 Scene.
 NEW YORK, Sept. Many persons were at deueralGrant's tomb inRiversidePark this morning waiting to see the widow of General Grant, who was expected to visit her hus- bands last resting place. Carriage after car riage came up Riverside drive and the occu- pants were closely scanned by the curious. On the arrival of each person the guard who paced slowly up and down the short walk in the tomb was asked: "Has Mrs. Grant been here yet2" At noon the greater part of the crowd had departed in the belief that Mrs. Grant would delay her visit until evening. It was not long after the crowd had departed when another carriage came into view and was driven rapidly toward the place. The vehicle was somewhat shabby and the few jdlers did not exhibit the curiosity of short time before. The driver was dressed in faded livery and it was supposed that only another party of ordinary visitors had appeared, but when the carriage drew nearer the form of
 
 carriage stopped in front of the tomb and was immediately surrounded. The door was opened by Colonel Grant. He assisted his mother to alight. In his hand he carried a small valise. Mrs. Grant was dressed in black with heavy crepe veil hanging from her bonnet concealing her features. She be- gan to throw it back as her son gave her his arm and they walked toward the tomb, but noticing the inquisitive gaze of the specta- tors she covered the veil again and walked slowly to the vault. The masons who had been at work putting the finishing touches to the arch were at luncheon. The sergeant of the guard with several soldiers reelined in the shade of the trees and two or three park policemen loitered around gossiping with the visitors. When Mrs. Grant appeared before the resting place of the general the fifty spectators divided, the guard stood at present. the park police men stopped their chatter and the gentlemen present raised their hats and stood with heads bowed while Mrs. Grant passed them. She released her arm from that of her son and taking hold of the iron grating stood gazing within as though striving to pene- trate the three iron and wooden coverings of General Grants body and to look once more upon the form of her husband. Her son stood at her left with his hat in hand. His mother was overcome with emotion. Her form trembled. The son noticed her feel ing and placing his arm about her waist drew her gently from the place and returned to the carriage. Those present turned their heads and some women wept in sympathy.
 In the Supreme court to-day Judge Barrett rendered decision continuing the injune- tion granted at the instance of the owners of the lands along Riverside drive in the vicini- ty of General Grants tomb. The action is brought against certain persons who propos- l.,-s1 11Ds &-1 the property The injunction was originally obtained to prevent the erection of booths for the vending of food and drinks at the Grant funeral.

AMI ENDEs FATAL BLUNDER.

T Tine Second Victim of the Mistaken
 Dose Dies Hut the Druggist Will
 Recover.
 NEW YORK, September Miss Ella Holtz, who with her sister, Miss Marguerite, took morphine in mistake for quinine on Sunday night at the handsome house of their parents on Hudson street. Hoboken, died this morning. The druggist, Am Ende, who took dose of the poison in remorse for his mistake, is now out of danger, but pro strated beyond description. County Physician Converse directed that man be employed to watch him and some one in his room with him continually. It seems to be understood that if the druggist can find an opportunity for self destruction he will waste no time in availing himself of it. The police have not put him under ar rest. It is said, indeed, that there is no law under which he can be prosecuted He ex plained to Detective Gallagher how he came to make the fatal error. "When the man called with the prescription" he said, "there were number of gentlemen in the store talking business to me. I was paying attention to them and in my abstraction lifted the wrong bottle from the shelf"

SHOT BY HER HUSBAND. An Unhappy Married Life Ends Nm a
 Tragedy.

BALTIMORE, Sept. 1.-The residents in the vicinity of Packer and Franklin streets were startled at o'clock this evening by four pis- tol shots fired in quick succession. The re- ports came from 160 North Packer street. A policeman rushed into the house the front door of which was open and encountered Thomas B. Reall, until recently member of the fire department, who grasped smoking revolver in his hand. A second officer pro ceeded to 8 room in the rear of the house on the first floor to which he was guided by the moans of a person in distress. Entering he found Mrs. Read, the wife of the fireman, lying upon the floor with blood streaming from two wounds, one in the left breast, the other in the right thigh Medical aid was quickly summoned and the flow of blood staunched. The woman's in- juries are serious. Thomas B. Reall was taken to the Western police station and looked up. The couple had been living in South Balti- more. Their married life it seems was not happy and week ago they separated, Mrs. Reall going to her sisters house where the tragedy occurred. Her husband has been seeking her ever since the separation and to- night learned of her whereabouts.

What Parneu Is Trying To Secure For Ireland.

DUBLIN, Sept. 1.-At a banquet tonight attended by three hundred Irish leaders be- side the Irish members of Parliament Mr. Parnen made speech explaining his recent remarks which have been taken to mean demand for separation. He declared that England could either grant the Irish the right to rule themselves by Parliament or make Ireland a crown colony, which would have practically the same results. Until this was done the parliamentary party should legislate on Irish affairs Outrages such as have become frequent of late were to be se- verely condemned as terribly hurtful to the cause. The absorbing question with Ire land was that of the land and it was to be settled by other methods than this.
