NO MONEY, NO WEDDING.
An American Girl Who May Escape
Becoming a Princess.

A Paris cable special to the Baltimore Amer
lean says: The projected match between Prince
Hatzfeldt and the adopted daughter of C. p
Huntington has been broken off, The railroad
magnate has concluded that he will not pay
the princes enormous debts, which, he believes,
should be settled by the princes father and
mother, who are perfectly able to do SO if
they wished. Mr.. Huntington declared to the
prince that he would only allow his adopted
daughter, Clara, modest income, to be paid
quarterly, and added that it would be stopped
altogether if there were any attempt made to
discount its payment in advance. Prince Hatz-
feldt Indignantly refuses to accept any such
terms. The gist of the comment in American
circles here is that Mr.. Huntington has given evil
dence of much good sense by his decision. 1t
is asserted that he learned during his trip
through Germany that Prince Hatfield. was
not an honorable man, and that there were
several unsavory reasons why he could not live
in his native country. On learning Mr. Hunt
ington's intentions the princes ardor as lover
and hauce underwent considerable and
altogether refreshing modification, and in
deed. the only person whose feelings of affec-
ton have suffered no change is Miss Hunting
ton herself, who is still exceedingly anxious
to acquire the princes badly furnished coronet
and heart. However. she will have no lack of
suitors while here. With Prince Hatzfeldt
barred the horde of other impecunious bearers
OF foreign titles will find fair field.

WASHINGTON THE PLACE.
New York and Chicago Wasting Their
Energy Over the Worlds Fair,

The New York correspondent of the Balti-
more American, in speaking Of the worlds fair
project, says: Washington people have cause
Tor great encouragement in the recent develop
ments here. From mayors of cities no further
from New York city than Trenton come letters
declining to aid New York in her work and
stating IN positive terms the preference OF
their citizens for the national capital as the
site for the fair. The letters from those mayors
who are in favor of New York are conspicuously
published in the newspapers, but those who
favor Washington are thrown out or but slightly
mentioned. 1t is much like the vote which

Spoiled as an Acrostic.

From the Chicago Tribune
THAT poem you published this morning was
rather clever, Mr.. Clugston," remarked the
caller, though to the critical reader it might
have seemed trife incoherent and discon-
nected." THAT poem" replied the editor of
the Doodleville Yelper, fishing fly out of his
paste pot, twas contribution. After we had
the forms made up we discovered it was an
acrostic conveying the intimation that 'Clug-
ston is a darned chump.' We had no time to
wait and hadn't anything to take the place of
that poem, so / told the foreman to change the
order of the verses and mix up the lines SO that
the fret letters wouldn't spell anything, and go
to press. Ii spoiled the thing for an acrostic, -
continued Mr. Clugston with heavy sigh, in
dicative of the llrden that Expresses tine mind
of man chara with the destinies of a great
journal, but itNidn't seem to hurt it much as

Two Yellow Fever Cases,

Surgeon General Hamilton has received a
report from Health Officer Smith of New York
in regard to the death of John Wood, one of
the firemen on the steamship Caingorm, which
arrived at quarantine ON the 18th from Cura-
Gao. Wood died about o'clock on the day of
the arrival Of the ship. Doctor Smith says the
history of the case and the appearance of the
remains afforded symptoms indicative of vel
low fever. An autopsy made on the
steamer which confirmed these suspicious
The case is reported, the doctor explains, prin-
cipaly for the reason that the bill of health
from Curacao, the place at which the infection
was undoubtedly received. was clean.
DR.. Smith also refers to the arrival at quaran-
tine of the British steamship Hondo from Grey
town with a case of sickness OF highly sus-
picious character-Joseph Fennell, passenger,
who came on board at Greytown. In this case,
as in the preceding. the bill of health was Clean
and there has been no report of yellow fever at
Greytown this season. IL is not an uncommon
experience at this quarantine, the doctor con-
cludes, to receive clean bills of health from
ports which have gwen US undoubted cases of
yellow fever

A New Plunger.

Edward Becht0ldt is a young New York
broker known in the betting ring as "The Mys-
terry" inasmuch as the book makers have never
seen him. He is the latest plunger on the turf,
but conducts all his operations through agents
or commissioners. Of whom there are said to
be dozen in his employ. He sits in his Office
in Pine street, and, with the telegraph at his
finger tips, orders that 81 900 be placed on this
horse, $4,000 on that, and SO ON. He is the
man, ii is asserted, who backed Chaos down to
to in the Futurity. Racing men have won
dered where the cyclonic plunge came from.
The trainer OF Chaos had no faith whatever in
the colt; but as he never lets one of his horses
run loose, he invested $40 on the youngster as
flyer" 1t is scarcely probable, under the
circumstances, that Mr.. Scott backed him to
any large extent. Therefore to the new plunger
must be credited the heavy losses of the book
makers on the Futurity 1t is estimated that
the amount taken from the ring by Bechtoldi
on that occasion was $4,000.

He Left 81 900 to Philadelphia I'm 1890
to be Invested and Spent in 1890

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
There is every indication that big public
bath will shortly be erected in this city from
money donated many years ago by Benjamin
Franklin and John Scott One hundred thous-
and dollars will probably be expended on it,
The ''father'of electricity left by his will,
dated April 49, $780, FL 900 to be used by the city
in the best manner deemed possible and in 1916
John Scott left "a, 200, which was to be devoted
to the same purpose as desired by Franklin.
These trusts are both in charge of the board
OF directors of city trusts, of whom the active
members are Prothonotary Mann and Director
of Public Works Wagner. These two officials
have lately been giving the legacies consider
able thought and discussion. In his will the
great philosopher left e., 600 sterling. one-half
to Boston and the other to Philadelphia He
had great ideas as to what the money would
amount to with the lapse of a century. For
instance, he desired the money to be loaned
to married artificers under the age of twenty
five years at per cent per annum in sums not
exceeding EGO sterling. The document went
on to state that IF this plan is executed, and
succeeds as projected without interruption
for one hundred years, the sum will then be
913l, 000."
Continuing, the great philanthropist writes:
Il would have the managers of the donation
lay out, at their discretion, f100,000 in public
works which may be judged of most general
utility to the inhabitants, such as Notifications
bridges. aqueducts, public buildings, baths,
pavements or whatever may make living in the
town more convenient to its people and re-
sorting hither for health or temporary resi-
dence. The remaining f3l 200 would have
continued to be let out at interest for another
hundred years."
These provisions applied to the sum left to
Boston as well as to Philadelphia. But in the
case of our city he also empowered the mama
gers Of the fund to spend at the end Of the first
century part OF the 100000 in bringing by
pipes the water of the Wissahickon creek into
the town. Philadelphia artificers did not
come forward to borrow the money however.
and the expected ''l31 600 pounds sterling''
have not been realized at the close of this
the appointed century. Instead. the principal
amounts to about $4,000, yielding an income
of $1,000 a year. The Scott fund amounts
to about $4,000, making in all $4,000.
Messrs. Mann and Wagner have concluded to
ask the solicitors of the board of city trusts how
they can go about securing 800, 900 of this
sum for the purpose Of building the big bath
proposed. The other $4,000 they propose to
put aside for another century at compound in
terest. Col. Mann thought that but little gen.
cral good could be accomplished with S1l0,O
but the public bath suggested itself, and Il
may be built before the close of the year 1890.

THE CRUISER CHICAGO.
An Unsatisfactory Trial Trip Under
Unfavorable Conditions.

The high winds and lumpy sea at Newport
yesterday prevented the completion Of the
trials of the cruisers Yorktown and Chicago.
The Yorktown gave up after . few runs over
the course and returned to her old anchorage.
The board of officers on the Chicago deter
mined to 60 on with the test in order that the
ship might be allowed to return to New York,
where she has been expected for more than a
week. Several spins were taken up and down
the course to get the fires in proper condition
and to warm up the engines. Then she was
pointed for the range and the signal full
speed" was sent to the engineer in charge
below.
As esteam whistle gave the signal on cross
ing the line every officer on deck had his watch
in hand. hoping to see the record that should
mean Is knots at least, but it soon became APP
parent that the engines were not working up
best that she made. The next run was little
better, but not much. The third was still only
10 and one-tenth. Then the revolutions seemed
to rise little higher, and ON the fourth run
16 and one-tenth was recorded. This was the
fourth run and the last, the mean speed being
Is and three-tenths.
This is considerably less than the ship made
on her original trial trip, and much more than
was expected today. The conditions were un-
favorable, to be sure, for the wind across
the course anu tue nelm ndu 10 De kept over
across the stern to keep her head true. This
acted as a serious drag, but does not account
for the fact that the revolutions, which should
have reached 49, did not go above 10. 1t seemed
impossible to get the fires up to the proper con-
dition or to keep the steam pressure needed
throughout the trials. The highest pressure
developed was 81 pounds, while it should have
been over 30. Before the trial began it was be-
lieved the speed would be we'll above 16 knots,
in spite of the unfavorable conditions, and no
one seems to understand why no better record
was made.
After the full-speed trials were concluded
several other experiments were made to de-
termine what could be done with one engine
working alone. BY the time these were con-
cluded the wind had become SO strong that it
was decided to give up for the present, and
the ship came in and anchored. If today is
fair the trials will be resumed and possibly
concluded. Those which remain to be made
are the runs at minimum speed and the trials
for turning circle at various speeds and with
the helm in different positions.
