possession Of all who had seen the innocent
girl, and noted her calm blue eyes and superb
healthy figure. Inquiries were hastily int
stituted. Detectives were sent out to hum
her up. From one end of the city to the

Miss Burke, the cousin, called in the aft
ernoon, and with smiling face ran lightly
into the office OF the information bureau.
''Where is Mary?" she asked. Haven't
you seen" was the reply. The poor girl
was told the story of her Cousins strange
disappearance. Half distracted she re-
turned to Summit, but again returned with
the tidings that the girl had not arrived or
been heard of there. Never since then has
word been heard from her, and her prob
able fate is considered more than likely to
be the sad lot of many beautiful, trusting
girls. Whether she went away with
some friend whom she met on the steamer
or was lured by some highly colored story
related by some designing person, are ques-
lions the detectives who are working on
the case, are trying to decide. If she is
with some acquaintance her strange silence
battles them. If she has fallen victim to
some base deceiver her place of seclusion is
equally mysterious. Father Rierdon, the
chaplain of the Mission of Our Lady Of the
Rosary, said:
still hope that she may be found. She is
connected with some very respectable people,

told him that such thing would be impos-
Sible, and Maxwell seemed pleased at his
answer. The prisoner had talked like
parrot all the time he was in the shop;
told all sorts of stories about
himself; said he was going into the
country for a day or two, but would soon
return. The counsel for the prisoner, in
cross examining the witness. tried to show
that Maxwell had evinced no uneasinesS

not his having been shaved had

but the answer to his questions resulted in
showing the contrary had been the case;
that the prisoner looked nervouSly around
whenever any one entered the room; that
he was continually slipping down in his
chair as if to not attract attention. Samuel
A. Hughes. ticket agent of the San Fran
cisco railroad, was the next witness. He
identified the prisoner as the man to
whom he had sold ticket to San Fran
cisco on April &, 1885; identified the
ticket which bore his own signature and
that of II. NJ. Brooks; prisoner had made
no inquiry as to the price of the ticket, and
when he paid for it drew forth large roll
of bills of large denominations. The de-
Tense waived cross-eXamination. Other
witnesses called gave similar testimony as
to the prisoners actions and possession of
money. and hat dealer testified that he
had sold Maxwell a hat, he asking for one
which would make him look like Yankee.

CHICAGO ANARCHISTS.
The Grand Jury investigating Their
Cases.

Cases.
CHICAGO, May 20.-The Cook county
grand jury which is pursuing the investiga-
ton of the hay market anarchists began its
session about II o'clock to-day. At that
time there were dozen witnesses ON hand.
One of the crowd had his arm in sling on
account of a bullet hole through his wrist.
1t was said that it was he who furnished
the description of the man who threw the
bomb which led to the arrest of Lingg. A
short time before the grand jury went into
session States Attorney Grinnell came out
of the jury room and directed that the wit
neSseS should be called into the outer ant e-
room, from which the reporters should be
excluded. He further informed the re-
porters that they could not have even tine
name of a single witness until the indict-
mentS were returned. The first witness
who came out was August Goereke, a
printer on the Arbeiter Zeitung. He was eX-
amined as to what he knew of the conspira-
cies Matched in that office. Other witnesses
who came out refused to give their names
on the ground that they feared the an
archists. The printers Oh the Arbeiter Eel
tung were all examined during the day,
together with number of police officials.
1t is stated that the jury considers that it
already has sufficient evidence i'll hand to
indict the leaders for murder in being ac-
cessories before the fact.
From another source it is learned that there
is a feeling among the jurors that the police
are withholding their most important evil
dence, and with this the jurors are not sat-
isfed. The police ON the other hand fear
to reveal their best evidence at this time.
They are not prepared to trust the jurors
with information which they desire to keep
from the attorneys for the prisoners.
This may create hitch. During the day
the jurors went into discussion concerning
the condition of the case. Seveveral men,
bers thought there was other evidence in
the possession of the police which ought to
be given the jury. The debate lasted FOR
an hour and the jury decided that they
must hear more evidence. They are gen.
orally agreed that they have secured no
evidence on which to base an indictment
against Christian Spies who was arrested
with his brother the editor of the Arbeiter

THE WRITE HOUSE WEDDING.
Late Gossip Concerning the Presi-
dents Matrimonial Intentions.

dents Matrimonial Intentions.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 2O.-The freshest
gossip about the presidents marriage is that
he has engaged suite of rooms for June IL
at a hotel in Baltimore. If this be true it
would appear that the wedding is to occur
on or near that day. No one can get from
the president an inkling as to his purpose.
1t is presumed that Col. Lamont is in his
confidence, but he is usually secretive upon
the interesting topic. When his marriage
was first discussed the president was irrita-
ble but now he reads with mingled pleasure
and humor the different statements made
by the newspapers in his behalf One thing
is certain, he is in excellent humor. Those
who call upon him remark that
He IS MUCH GAfER
than he was three months ago. Of course
they attribute this to the anticipation of
the great event Of bachelors life. The
president may be said to be at an age in
life when matrimony presents any but its
frivolous side. He is quite 40, and has re-
sisted the Establishments of the fair sex
longer than most men. For this reason it
is feared that he will prefer a quiet mar
rage. rather than one of pomp at the
White house. In this, however, he may
be converted, as those who know the lady
declare that Miss Folsom will not let the
opportunity pass to have the wedding Gel
ebrated in a way that will be long remem-
bered. If the wedding were to be pri-
vate one. the gossips say why such an
elaborate trOuSSeau from abroad?

Criminal Cuttings.

The store of William G. Ruge in North
Washington, D. c., was robbed and set on fire
early on Wednesday morning, being totally
destroyed. A box of jewelry dropped by the
burglars in their fight was found near the
building after the fire. The stock was valued
at S12, 900; the building at $4,000. Insurance,
$4,000.
Wilks w, Forney, Postmaster at Leetonia,
o., was arrested to-day by a deputy United
States marshal for misrepresentation of gov
eminent funds. The defalcation amounts to
about 500. Forney was appointed to the
Office last February.
Louis Lengg, the Chicago anarchist, is a
self-confessed enthusiast in that cause, and
judging by the letters he has received from
prominent people in Europe, appears to have
been one of their most trusted agents.
DIR. Edison of the New York health depart
ment having been credited with saying that
the anarchist bombs which he saw at Chicago
were only atlas blasting powder cartridge, the
Chicago police assert that he never saw the
articles at all.

Aun1au1rous ANARCHIST.
Positive Proof That Parsons is Hid,
ing Near Pittsburg and in Florida.

CHICAGO, May 20.-The Daily News is
in receipt of information, which it deems
positive, respecting the whereabouts of the
fugitive anarchist, Parsons. The sheriff at
Tallahassee, Fla, telegraphed last Tuesday
that Parsons and companion had gone
through Tallahassee and was bound for
either Cedar Keys or Tampa, and was sup
posed to be heading for Cuba, as steamers
leave both the ports mentioned for Havana.
A return telegram was sent for deScrip-
ton of Parsons, and the description tele-
graphed back tailed precisely with that of
Parsons. The anarchist was recognized at
a station called Baldwin, but was not ap-
pretended. If Parsons sailed on Wednes-
day from Cedar Keys it is thought he can
be apprehendod.
AMONG THE COAL MINERS.
PITTsBURa, Pa, May 2O.-A registered
letter was sent from Coal Valley on last
Friday to Mrs. Lucy Parsons, Chicago, the
wife of the noted anarchist. 1t was thought
before that he was in hiding with friends
in the Monongahela valley. Following the
clue given by the letter, a detective has
been for several days looking for him in
Coal Valley. His efforts have been unavaiI-
ing, except that he is now convinced that
Parsons is not far from there. The detective
has been working up the case, and has al
most positive proof that Parsons is either
in the valley or at Monongahela City. and
is now keeping close guard at these
places.

CHICAGO, May 2O.-Mayor Harrison
does not like the newspapers. He thinks
they abuse him. To-day, after trade
against the local press, he picked up
from his desk a copy of the Congregation

severe correspondence from this city, in
which his honor was charged with having
nursed and fostered the anarchists and been
the constant friend of the saloons and
criminal classes.

ARKANSAS COAL MINES.
Fears of Trouble Over Employment
OF COnVicrs.

ST. LOUIS, May 2O.-A special from Little
Rock, Ark, says: The people of Coal Hill
are greatly excited over discovery that the
convict contract system is now in force in
one of the coal mines near that village. The
Quita Coal company of this city owns mine
about three miles from Coal Hill, which is
operated exclusively by convicts, to the ex-
clusion of miners who have been thrown out
of employment by them. Complaints have
been made to the governor of this violation
of the law and appeals have been sent beg
ging him to take means to have the convicts
removed and the work given to licensed
miners. 1t is feared that unless some de-
cisive action shall be taken by him very soon
the miners will organize and attempt to drive
them away by force, when bloodshed and
probably great loss of life will surely follow.

aUARREL1NG CORPORATIONS.
A Chicago Company to Supply
Cheap Gas.

CHICAGO, May 2O.-There is a prospect
that in the near future consumers of gas in
all parts of the city, instead of paying 81
and $3.50 per 1000 feet, will get it for SO
and IS cents, and perhaps less. The fol-
lowing lhand-bill was distributed by thou
sands on the West side yesterday:
The Illinois Light, Heat and Power COM
pany, having purchased the gasworks stu
ated on the north branch at Division street,
and having acquired the right to extend its
mains and pipes to all divisions of the city,
will be ready in a short time to enter into
contracts to furnish gas for lighting. heating
and power in all divisions of the city for one
year or more mot exceeding five years., at
the rate of IS cents per 1000 cubic feet. -
The reduction grows out of a serious fight be-
tween three corporations, which have hitherto
confined themselves to the south, west and
north divisions of the city, but which have
latterly invaded each others field.

NEW YORK, May 2O.-On the steamship
America, which arrived here on the morn

cent, pretty-faced girl of 90 years. She
came alone, and carried with her in little
purse several pounds in English money and
the addresses of her friends in America.
To one she had decided to go, and this
name and address she gave to Mrs. Boyle,
the head matron. Her neat, attractive APP
pearance drew so much attention that Chief
Clerk Van Duser took especial care to
have the girl cared for until the
arrival of her cousin, Kate Burke Of
Summit, n. j., who was to take
her in charge. Miss Burke was telegraphed
to, and responded that she would come for
the girl the next day. During the afternoon
Mary was suddenly missed. Hundreds of
people, coming and going, had passed in

peared. Thinking she would return, the
authorities waited, meanwhile keeping

within three years, the senate took up the

favoring it, the opposition coming mainly
from the gentlemen from New Jersey. An

to, authorizing the secretary of war, if he
should deem any alteration of the bridge
necessary or the entire removal of the bridge
necessary to avoid obstruction to commerce,
he may order it's alteration or removal at
