a CRUEL MAJOR GENERAL.
Mrs. Carroll Sues Her Husband for
Divorce for the Second Time.

Mrs. Carroll Sues Her Husband for
Divorce for the Second Time.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-Mrs. Carroll,
the wife of Maj. Gen. Samuel SprigG Car
roll, U. S. A, retired, obtained divorce
from MIN in April, 1885, to escape, as she
stated, his cruel treatment. it was not
long before she was living with him again.
To-day she fled a bill for another divorce.
In it she alleges that she remarked Gen.
Carroll at his urgent request and on his
solemn promise to stop drinking. He
kept this promise for nearly twelve
months, she says, when he fell into the
company OF bad meu and women and
began to drink again and to abuse her and
call her vile names,
DENIED HER LIES NECESSITIES.
He also refused to furnish her with the
comforts, or even the necessaries of life.
She states that he boasts that the courts
here do not interfere with him, as he is a
Major General in the army, and that he
will treat her as he chooses. She alleges
that on Dee. 20, 1885, he committed adul-
terry with one Madeline Sinclair, and tha at
he spent large sums of money buying
wine for this woman and two other al
legged dIsreputable women, and that ne
has been guilty of acts of infidelity with
other alleged lewd and abandoned women.

TONE OF THE RUSSIAN PRESS.

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 23.-The Rus
sian press was less surprised at the de-
position OF Prince Alexander than 1t was
when Roumelia revOlted in 1885. The
newspapers here generally for some time
past have believed that the political ten
sion in Bulgaria foreshadowed catas-
trOphe.
The Visdomosti says: "Russia must
now speak her weighty word if she does
not wish to lose control OF Bulgarian des-
tinies."
The Novosti says that it is highly
probable that Russia will intervene di-
rectly aud establish new order OF things
in Bulgaria, and adds: "With Alexander
deposed Bulgarian sympathy with Russia
Will be revived"
Most OF the Russian papers observe that
the foreign press manifests a confusion
OF IDEAS respecting the relations between
the thre 'npires.
THE GOVERNMENTS REASONS.
SOFIA, Aug. 23.-The governments
proclamation announcing the deposition
OF Prince Alexander and the reasons
therefor declares that he rendered great
services on the fed of battle, but political
ly he had too little regard for Bulgaria's
position as a State aud the maintenance
OF the relations with Russia. His deposit
tion on this account was a necessity.
KARAVRLoFF's DECEPTIVE CIRCULAR.
BUCHAREST, Aug. 23.-Advices from
Sofia say that Premier Karaveloff's pro-
vlncial government, realizing that public
sentiment remained favorable to Prince
Alexander, caused a circular to be dis
trlbuted among the people, calling min
lsterial list containing the names OF
prominent men OF all parties and
classes, who, the document declares,
were in the new movement, the
purpose being to cause belief
that the government was receiving gem
eral support. Suoh combinations are not
considered possible, as many of those
named are known to hold such different
views as to render their coalition impos.
sible.
A GARRISON TRUE TO THE PRINCE.
The garrison at Shumla remains faith
tul to Prince Alexander, and refuses TO
recognize the provisional government.
Numbers OF Bulgarians and prominent
Russo. Phobists have already fed TO Rou-
manan. The fugitIves include in their
number many Russian NIhilists, who were
serving as officers on the Bulgarian flo
tilla. 1t is now believed that the Prince
is confined in monastery near Sofia. 1t
is rumored that Premier Karaveloff has
been placed under arrest. Only certain
kilograms for Russia are permitted to
leave Bulgarian territory.

TIE NEW AQUEDUCT.
Something Interesting About Field
and Gould.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-The new aque-
duct has proved itself terror to many
city people having summer homes along
its line. The wholesale digging up Of
the ground for miles has developed mala-
ria of the worst kind, and compelled the
owners OF houses along the course to seek
fresh fields OF recr cation. This is con-
spicuously true of Irvington, where Jay
could, Cyrus w. Field and otner men OF
wealth have magnificent summer residen-
ces. Young George Gould said to a friend
the other day tnat to dine at mis- place
once month was enough for HIM. The
younger Fields have been driven
away by malaria. One of the sOns-in-
law OF the elder Cyrus is ID. A. Lindley.
a member of the Produce Exchange, and
he was terribly affected and had to flee
tor his life. Young Lindley was the son
OF missionary to India, and was edu-
Gated at Williams College, where he came
across the younger FIelds-Cyrus W., Jr.,
and "Ed"-and, visiting at their home, be
met and married one OF their sisters. He
is a man who deserved his luck, and is
better liked than any other member of the
family. Sir Cyrus is not a favorito with
the community in which he lives.
When Canon Farrar arrived at his house
at IrvingtOn the British flag was run up,
and was kept flying there during his en-
tire visit. There was talk OF tearing it
down. and, fearing something of the sort.
Mr.. Field put special detectives on duty.
These things do not add to the popularity
OF a man who acts in other respects as il
he considered his wealth a passport OF no.
bilitV. Jay Gould and his son are much
better liked at 1rvington. There is no
nonsense about George Gould, the son,
and people about Irvington always speak
! well of him.

the Organization Trade Mark.
CHICAGO, Aug. 23.-1he Cigarmakers'
Union, through its Secretary, began on
injunction suit in the Circuit Court to-
day against Berreman Bros, cigar manu-.
facturers. The bill alleges that the de.
PENDANTS have been using n label on their
cigar boxes in imitation of union labels
1t is also claimed that Berreman Bros. do
not employ union men and have no right
TO use union men labels. Attached TO rhe
bill are copies of the original labels and
the alleged counterfeit. The first reads as
follows: "This certlfes that the cigars
contained in this box have been made by
first-class wOrkmen, members of the
Cigarmakers' Union Of America, an or
ganization opposed to rat-shop, coolie,
prison or filthy tenement house workman
ship. We therefore recommend these
cigars to all makers throughout the
world"
The alleged counterfeit is Just the same
but differs little in type. Like the origI-
nal labels it bears a fac simile Of the Gig
nature of A. Strasser, President of the
Union. The Secretary asks the court 10
enjoin the defendants from using the
labale.

LAREDO, TEX, Aug. 23.--In connection
with the fact that the military authori-
ties in Mexico have within the last week
purchased all the arms and ammunition
to be had in Laredo, it is also fact that
an additional 1000 troops are within a
few hours march of Nuevo Kredo. There
are at present 1000 Mexican cavalry
posted along the Rio GraDde between
Nuevo Kredo and Pledras Negras. At

troops, and they are reported to be throw

cislon in the Cutting case.
GREAT UNEAsINEss.
Great uneasiness prevails on this pari

fenseless condition OF the people, and
sharp criticism on all sides Is heard of
the Presidents fishing trip to the Adiron-
dacks while Mexico is pushing her troops
to the Rio Grande IN order to strike bard
in the event of war being declared. The
destruction of private property along the
Rio Grande, on the American side, before
an army could be modified would, 1t Ia
alleged, be great, and the value of the
property destroyed would amount TO
more than the cost of the concentration of
few thousand troops by the government
at the principal points alOng'the Ameri-
can border. The Mexicans say the
Americans are nation of shopkeepeTs

the court Cutting replied ''As long

consented. The judge sent copy OF the
decree to the Juge Polite, who sent back
word that he in person would give Cuts

wholesome advice.

1t is said on the other side OF the river
that the Mexican constitution prohibiting
