To Marry q Duke.

New York dispatch: David Hawley, ex-
ecutor of the estate OF Isaac NJ. Singer, re.
ceived letter from Isabelle Blanche Singer,
who is in Paris, asking him to request the
courts to allow her the sum OF $6O, 900 to
meet the expenses of her coming marriage
with the Due de Cazes. Miss Singer is one
OF the six children OF Isaac Singer, the sew
ing machine manufacturer, by his third
and latest surviving wife. He died in En-
gland liz 1875, leaving fortune OF about
$13. 10000 and three wives. There was
a contest over the estate, which was
finally ended in decision that the third
was his lawful wife and entitled to the
money. She is now the Duchesse
de Camposelice and has resided in
Paris with her daughter Isabella since 1879.
Miss Singer is nineteen years old and is to
be married April %. Due de Cazes belongs
to one OF the Oldest families OF France, but
has no fortune. Miss Singer is worth, how.
ever, about a million and half, which Mr.
Hawley says, ''is set apartfor her sole use,
free from the interference or control OF any
husband she may marry" Her willingness
to pay the marriage expenses, however, is
taken as an Indication by her friends in
this city that shewill not let her husband
want fer pocket money.

answered Col. Jack Wharton, breathlessly.
Taken said the Hon. Mr.. Ochiltree.
Jem Mace was in the room. He had not
heard the conversation. The Hon. Mr..
Ochiltree, who was well acquainted with
the boxer, approached him with that ur-
banIty OF demeanor that constitutes his
chief charm, and requested him to take
glass OF wine. The great pugilist, who
showed not the slightest trace OF his en-
counter with Allen, graciously consented.
He and tie Hon, Mr.. Oehiltree clinked
glasses, the latter holding his in his left
hand. just as the wine touched Mace's
lips the Hon. Hr. Ochiltree hauled off with
his good right arm and dealt the fighter a
savage blow in the left eve that made the
blood fly.
These are not the stars that Mace saw.
Nor are they the stars that the Hon. Mr.
oehiitree saw He had no time to see any
thing. They are simply put there because
words fail to describe the scene that ensued
-Four days after, when the Hon. Mr.. Ochil-
tree regained consciousness, he was in a
bed in the st. Charles Hotel. One leg,
which was in splints, was suspended from
pulley in the ceiling. One arm was between
boards and bandaged. His head was
,wathed in linen. BY his side sat Col.

| Views of u French Statesman Upon th he
Copper Syndicate.


From a recent number OF the Cambrian
Swansea, the following Paris special is
| taken: In the Chamber yesterday NJ.
Laur, the working miners deputy, put a
question to the Minister OF Justice relative
tie monopoly OF copper and the sud-
den rise OF one hundred per cent. in the
value OF che metal. A coalition in no way
representing the general interests of the
country had disturbed the order OF things
established many years ago. On the 31st
Of December. 1887, there was q stock OF
forty-two Thousand tons of copper in Lon
don. The Societe des Metaux bought
nearly the whole of it. Aided by power
ful fnanciers, it spent in that opera
ton from thirty to forty million francs.
The rise in the price OF the metal was
inevitable. The transaction was followed
by another, which M. Laur considered more
important, and which he called time
bargain. 1t consisted in undertaking to
purchase the principal productions of the
mines not only in Europe. but all over the
world, during a period OF three or four
years. The quantity OF metal thus bought
annually amounts, according to NJ. Laur,
to between sixty and seventy-five thous-
and tons. This was succeeded by an en-
oL pdIu III VIlo mluco W
their production to that OF the average
during the last three years. A syndicate
had also been formed for the raise of the
shares OF all the copper mines. NJ. Laur
added that all the abandoned copper
mines and the commercial companies deal
ing in metal were preparing to appeal to Z
the public for capital. NJ. Falliere ae-
that to monopolise any article
was an offence punished by law; but be-
ol.o L
Article 419 of the Penal Code for the pun
shment OF moDopolizers it was REQUESTS. to
De perfectly certain OF the facts. Neverthe-
ess, he did not hesitate to declare that il
he country was ever in presence of coal
ton whose object was the absolute mo-
lopolizing of an article OF French COM
nerce the Law would be applied (applause.)
