The bridegroom Commits Suicide,
Lacking Courage 20 Marry.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2l.-A tragedy Of re-
markable character this evening pre-
vented what was to have been brilliant
wedding. The bridal couple have occupied
an honorable position in the highest
social circle, and the preparations had all
been completed. Miss Minnie F. Rosch,
beautiful and wealthy girl of 20, waited
at her home, 1874 North State street, with
nearly 100 gnests and the clergyman, but
the bridegroom, who had left his be-
trotked less than two hours before, failed
to appear.
The man for whom all were waiting was
julius Lefer, confidential assistant to
Schmidt & LADIES, wholesale liquor NOR
chants. He is 80 years of age, member
of the German MWnnerchor, and was
faVorably known throughout the city. A
friend at last hurried TO his apartments,
on Chestnut street. The house was
locked, and there was no sign of the
bridegroom. An entrance WAS finally
effected. Stretched upon the bed in his
wedding garments was the bridegroom
with bullet in his forehead, dead. Or
two scraps Of paper he complained thai
he had not the moral courage to proceed
with the marriage. Word OF the TRACED,
WAS hastily brought back to the waiting
bride. At the first intimation Of th,
death she shrieked and tainted, while tn
gaily attired guests departed in confusion

II has been the custom for many years
for retail grooers iu buying peaches at
the markets to pay deposit of 10 cents
on each basket, which the mArketmen
promised to refund when the baskets are
returned. In their experience, with very
few exceptions, the grooers have been
met with a flat denial by the marketmen
of the ownership Of baskets when they
arc returned at the end of the season.
This matter was made the subject of q
special meeting of the retail grocers Of
New York on Thursday night. A ma
jOrity Of those present spoke briefly and
their remarks showed that peach baskets
were worth but five cents, and that the
