A SENSATIONAL LIBEL CASE.
Mary NJ. Ryan Sues the Chicago elm
ter-Ocean'' for $4,000.

Mary NJ. Ryan Sues the Chica 60 elm
ter-Ocean'' for $4,000.
There began in Judge Bakers court in Chi
cago yesterday afternoon q suit for libel,
which, If the opening address of counsel shall
be proven, will merge into one Of the most
sensational ever heard in Chicago It is the
$4,000 suit of Mary M. Ryan against the
Inter Ocean for characterizing her as q black
mailer and an adventures and stating that she
pursued with the relentlessness of tiger some
of the wealthiest and most prominent of Chi
cago's citizens, bleeding them of large sums
of money, which they handed over rather
than public notice should be brought to them.
The plaintiff is rather tall, plainly at
tired, welI-developed woman, with an at
tractive face. She has acted a book can
vasser. A large crowd attended the pro-
ceedBgs, not a few Of the ladies present
being wives Of wealthy alleged victimized hus-
bands. A jury was secured, but no witnesses
were called yesterday. Over sixty have been
summoned by the Inter Ocean, among them
some of the most prominent supposed suffer-
ers. Others are said to have left the state to
avoid the publicity their testimony would
give, while a number had to be threatened
with being attached for contempt before they
would consent to appear.

INTERNATIONAL RECIPROCITY.

The Power Of Merchants and Bankers
in Directing the Thought of the World.
The chamber of commerce of New York last
night discussed its one hundred and twenty
second annual dinner, and during his address
President Smith used these words:
II have the profound conviction that reci-
procity is the key which will open widely the
door Of commercial intercourse and give to us
the natural outlet for our surplus products
which we must have or our manufactures must
for the present cease to increase. believe
that the considerate judgment Of the country
will demand of the party in power that reci-
procity, which is only another name for fair
trade, shall be adopted as the true American
economic policy in connection with our foreign
trade"
Chauncey NJ. Depew was q speaker and in his
opening he declared that "the events of the
last few days have reyolutionized the thought
and action of the world. They have demon
strated that the real power III the government
Of christendom is the man of BUSINESS The
merchants and the bankers have directed the
thought of the world and become the leaders
OF its public action"
AvERTINa A CRISIS.
Still referring to the recent stress in Wall
street, Mr.. Depew said: 1--WE have hitherto
frantically appealed to the Secretary of the
Treasury to rush into Wall street and speculate
in government bonds. But a crisis of uu-
equaled seriousness and magnitude has been
met and its consequences averted without ask
ing aid OF cabinets or secretaries, without the
suspension OF statutes or the violation Of law
by the commercial craftsmanship OF New York
and London"
Referring to the quick aid Of other nations to
the English banke in their trouble, the
speaker said: This is international reciprocity
Of the broadcast and most benefcent character
1t opens vista OF hope for the nations and Of
progress for peoples unequaled by a single
event Of our time. 1t demonstrates that the
power Of peace and war is passing from the
hereditary legislator and the accidental politi-
clan to the bankers and merchants of Europe
The details of the preservation of order and
the pageantry of courts can be left to public
officials, but these new masters of the situation
will insist upon the rule of commercial princi-
pies and the laws of trade. Within the past
few weeks we have stood the strains of repur-
chase OF all our bonds and stocks which Europe
desired to sell 1t was fearful test, but it has
superbly demonstrated the strength of our
financial situation, the soundness of our credit
and the permanency Of our prosperity"
President Harrison sent his regrets ut his
inability to be present.

SPOILED BY POLITICS.
"A Young Mans Wedding Broken on
for Celebrating Pattison,s Election


Linfeld. Pa, is the scene Of racy sensation,
In which Augustus Gerstner, young molder
OF that place, figures conspicuousIy. For six
months he had been paying attention to Phil
adelphia lady and Thanksgiving day was fixed
for the wedding. In the meantime the lady
had shipped a lot Of furniture to the home Of
the prospective groom's mother to begin house
keeping with. In the late campaign Gsrstner,
who was an enthusiastic Pattison supporter.
celebrated the triumph of his favorits in q
manner that very much displeased his be-

Tilted him.

that she had shipped to the Gerstner mansion,
and on Q refusal to surrender it without the

Substituting Judges for Jurors.

court reform advocated by a New York
judge is that civil suits in the petty courts
should be before bench of three judges in
place Of the usual petty jury. The reason he
gives is the impossibility Of getting desirable
class Of citizens into the jury box. The taking
up Of business mems time in these minor cases
is q continual series OF wrangling between
judges and jurors, often resulting in manifest
miscarriage of justice. It is believed that the
work would be done before a bench of judges
more impsrtially and in one-third the time
that the courts now lose under the present
system.
