PREPARING FOR THE BRIDE.
The White Rouse Being Made
Ready

special TO the GlOpe.
WASHINGTON, May THE critic says!
''There is undoubtedly more than the Gus
tomary amount Of busting about In the
White house just at this season, and 1t is not
due to annual house-cleaning. Society young
ladies profess to know all about it, and assign
the cause to be the speedy transfer of Miss
Cleveland from the exalted social pest she
has so amicably filed for more than year
and the succession of Miss frankie Folsom to
the eminence Of first lady in the land. Miss
Cleveland has always performed her duties
graciously, but under sort Of protest, and
she is said to look forward with grateful
anticipatiOnS OF the time, now fast approach
ing, when she may return to her dear Hol-
land, where she has had the cid farmhouse
remodeled and put into shape for occupancy.
Soon after the nuptials Of the president and
Miss Folsom, Miss Cleveland win withdraw
from Washington society, and it Is said to DO
arranged that the president will spend the
honeymoon with his bride at the homo
Of his sister in Holland Patent. The old
house has been elegantly furnished, and the
guest chamber is represented to be fitted up
in exquisite style. During the remaining
summers OF the presidents incumbency he
will doubtless spend what time he can steal
from official cares at that delightful spot.

claiming her attention at the mansion if it
is soon to be occupied by bride. Mean
time Miss Cleveland's friend, Miss Van
Vechten will tomorrow be upon the sea,
bound for Europe and the cenferts here is
to be found in sights and society abroad.
The current whisper is that Miss Cleveland
has been cherishing a fond hope
that the President would favor her
friend with proposal of marriage but
too late found his heart had been given to
another. Miss Van Feehtan's beauty is
something for poets and lovers to dwell
upon. Miss Cleveland has never seen much
of the Folsoms, and was not particularly
drawn to Miss frankie, but she welcomes
her joyously, it is said, as her future sister,
and has written her a number of times the
past winter On the all-absorbing topic.
Miss Cleveland will remain at the White
house for some time after the wedding, and
will spend several weeks here next winter
during the social season.

Alleged Crooked DeaIing.

MONTREAL, May For some time past
the customs authorities have understood
that the firm of Patterson, Kissock & Co.
were passing goods at under valuation.
Several times they attempted to gain access
to the books of the firm and obtain the nee
essary information, but failed. This morn
ing they made another attempt and strug-
gle ensued, as the firm had taken
legal advice and were informed that
their books could not be forcibly taken.
During the alteration revolvers were
drawn and the police were called in and ar
rested the customs officers. They returned
to the store subsequently, but were again
baked by the firm, who had locked the
books in the safe. The officers then seized
the stock, which is valued at $175, 600.
The firm have taken legal proceedings
against the custom house authorities. The
firm state that they are innocent of any
Wreng doing. It is said that the charge
against the firm is Of very serious charac-

house no matter what happens" A
brother of the girl, who was employed
in the store and who is a bright
boy of Is, begged his sister to leave and
avoid trouble. He told her the house be-
longed to Mrs. Woerner and that she must
obey her orders. The girl paid no attention
to her brothers. request, and matters only
grew worse in the dsnleralized household
until the final and fatal elimination Of the
trouble yesterday morning. The cause of
the girls conclusion to kill herself is q
decided mystery, and is only accounted for
upon the grounds that Woerner and herself
entered into all agreement to both wind up
their earthly existence in the event any
any trouble came from their actions.
Katie's brother states that his sister had
been carrying
VIAL OF POISON
about her clothes for several days preced-
ing the suicide, and that he was unable to
get it from her. The DYING girl was first
discovered by her brother about 6:45
o'clock yesterday morning. She was lying
on the floor in the front room OF the up
stairs residence, having Iallen, during her
| commissions, from the lounge. Near her
head lay an empty tea-cuH from which she
had undoubtedly taken the fatal
dose, which is also supposed to
have been prussie acid. The brother
fastened to the store below and told
Woerner something was wrong with Katie
The excited man hastily poured out some
brandy and told him to give her some Of it.
The boy fastened to the side Of his dying
sister, but found her unable to take any

! portion of the brady down her throat, but
in few minutes she was corpse. Katie
was aged % years, and was a stsut German
girl, by no means prepossessing, and a
blonde.

that none would be held It is thought.

BAD FOR BUSINESS.
Money i'm Large Amounts Tied Up
Awaiting Ceater Times.

PITTsBURG, May 1.-THE labor difficult
ties have caused a depression in business
that is perhaps doing more injury to the
building trade than to any other. 1t is es-
timated that nearly half million dollars
worth of business in Pittsburg and Alleghe-
ny has been lost since the labor troubles be-
gan. Builders and contractors complain
about contracts that have been broken;
plumbers and supply dealers, furniture and
lumber men Of orders that have been count
ermanded; and architects are idly waiting
for orders for plans. The iron and steel
trade is suffering heavy losses from the
labor troubles. Orders are being counter
manded, and every one is uneasy. No
manufacturer is buying any stock, and all
are holding OH to what they now have. The
advance in the price of carrying ore, of
coke, and the wages of the labOrers added
to feeling that the end has not come yet,
makes the iron men very shy.

troubles on the Missouri Pacific road, of
which Gov. Curtin is chairman, arrived
here from Sedalia tonight, and will begin
tomorrow to take testimony of railroad
officials. After completing their labors
here the committee will go to
Washington and make its report.
Gov. Curtin says the testimony taken at
Sedalia and other places was of the same
general character as that taken here Satur-
day last but it showed an even worse state
of affairs so far as injury to business is con-
cerned. The governor in reply to questions
regarding his opinion of strike said he
could not give it now. but that his report
would contain it in detail.

PITTsBURG, Pa, May 7.-Considerable
excitement was caused i'll the west end of
Pittsburg and the lower wards of Allegheny
City tonight by the appearance of a num-
Der of strangers who hurriedly passed from
house to house and street to street placing
circulars in every doorway and handing
them to passers. Investigation showed the
contents of the circulars to be identical with
those distributed by anarchists in Chicago
and Cleveland. The police were notified
and officers dressed in citizens cloth
ing sent to arrest the distributors, who
are described as hard-lookiug set
of men. They had ceased their labers,

OF the pockets off the Negroes coat. Ben
Chambers being suspected was arrested,
and it was found that the fragments fitted
his torn pocket. After the negro was jailed,
a mass meeting Of citizens was held, and
Maj. Powell, the chairman, appointed
a jury Of twelve leading citizens to try the
prisoner. They examined witnesses and
found him guilty. The meeting then adj
journed to the Jail, took the negro out and
hanged him. The sheriff attempted to pro.
tect his prisoner, but the entire community
was against him.

GETTING INTO SHAPE,
The st. Paul Base Ball Club PraC
tees ON tho New arounds.

tees ON tho New Grounds.
The members of the St. Paul Base Ball
club went out yesterday afternoon for their
first practice on the new ball grounds.
They appeared in their new suits, which
set off their athletic figures handsomely.
Quite number Of spectators wsrs in the
grand stand and watched the players during
their two hours work. The grounds yes
terday were in rather poor condition, being
uneven and trife soggy, but workmen
are busily engaged leveling and by Sunday
they will be in prime shape. A board
walk has been laid from the
grounds to the Milwaukee track to a
point where the Short Line trains will stop
and from the street car line they are but
two minutes walk. The location is very
convenient. The men yesterday showed
up in good shape and gave promise OF sharp
work. In the field they are especially
strong, and the basemen held their points
finely. Their practice yesterday was not
hard, as they wish to save themselves for
their opening game with the Duluths
which is to be played next Sunday, begin
ming in the afternoon at 8 o'clock. 1t is
probable that Winlot and Racraft will
form the battery. Racraft gives premise Of
doing COED work behind the bat, as he holds
the ball well and is a remarkably straight
and swift threwer to the bases. Wilmot
went into the box yesterday afternoon and
gave an exhibition Of pitching. He has good
control of the ball. The members of the
club are not heavy men, but they are active
and every one is swift base runner.
There is roomy grand stand OH the ground,
with Water-tlght roof. No teams will be
allowed inside the fence, arrangements
having been made for the hitching Of hsrses
outside, and during the game they will be
watched by special policemen appointed for
that purpose. The game next Sunday will
undoubtedly be good one, as the Duluth
club has proven in its games with the
Brainerd boys that it is strong one.

the man who was killed during the riot on

small calbre had penetrated his back be-
tween the two lower ribs, and had passed
through him. coming out beneath the
breast bone. The ball was of such small
calibre that in probing for it after his
death knife was used which obliterated
all traces of the bullet wound. 1t was
only by actual examination that the wound
in the back was discovered.

TRADE TOPICS.
Bradstreet's Report ON the Business
of the Week.

New YORK, May Especial telegra ms
to Bradstreet's indicate that the general
trade situation is less favorable than week
ago. This is due mainly to the partial
paralysis of business at Chicago as well as
to the disturbed industrial situation at Mill
wa ukae, Cincinnati. st. Louis, Baltimore
and elsewhere. At Chicago no business OF
wholesale character worth mentioning
has been DONE and merchants generally are
awaiting the settlement of labor troubles.
A noteworthy incident is the determination
of Chicago metal furniture works
and lumber yards employees to shut
down rather than to accede to what they
regard as unjust demands. A similar
spirit is displayed at Louisville. The move
ment of merchandise at leading cities east
and west has been checked by the industrial
troubles. Bradstreet'S telegraphic reports
indicate that $50, 900 men have taken part
in the short hour movement; that IT'S, 600
have struck and that 15o. GEO have received
concessions without having to strike. Sons
So, 900 have gained their points by striking.
The outlook fer an early or general clearing
away of industrial disturbances is not
bright. The New York stock market was
extremely weak the first two days Of the
week, but

CHICAGO, May 7.-All the wounded
officers at the county hospital, with three
exceptions, were resting comfortably this
morning and showing signs of improve
ment. The three exceptions were Officers
Flaven and Nels and Jacob Hansen. Officer
Redden was lying in the same room with
Flaven. He had improved somewhat dur
ing the night, but his recovery is not yet
assured. Leffel Hart, the man who shot
Madden and who received two balls from
the officers pistol, was much worse this
morning His recovery is regarded as i'm
possible, and he looked like dead man as
he lay stretched out On his cot. The cot
upon which young Schumacher, one of the
citizens wounded at the Haymarket riot,
was closed in the screens. The doctors
looked over the screen and passed on, for
Schumacher is almost past the need of
medicine, and death is but question of a
few hours.
The body of young Officer Miller, who
died last night, will be sent to Oswego, N.
Y, where his parents reside.
The lumber dealers of the city subscribed
1000 to be added to the police fund. The
subscription now bids fair to reach $50, 900
if not more.
