ALL DOUBTS AT REST.
THE ENGAGEMENT OF MISS DAVIS
CERTAINLY BROKEN OFF.
wr. wiikt,son's Card-Feffticai and FL
nanciaI Reasons Had Nothing to DO
with It-Hcr High Motives.
fspoclattelegrnm to the Dispa,ch.I

SYRACUSE, n. Y, October 17.-Mr.
Alfred Wilkinson, the former fancee of
Miss Winnie Davis, the " Daughter of
the Consederacy. has been exceedingly
annoyed by the reports that have ema-
mated from various sources to the effect
that the engagement was declared "off y
bv Miss Winnie because OF Mr.. Wilkin-
sons impecunious condition. He has
come OFT in a card tonight which COM
pletely sets at rest this phase of the case
at least. The general feeling is that the
situation Is the relation of Romeo and
Rosalind rather than those of Romeo
and Juliet. The card Of Mr.. Wilkinson
is as follows:
THE CARD.
To the Editor Of the Hcrati:
Having seen in your paper of yester-
day somewhat long report from New
York in regard to the breaking of her
engagement by Miss Davis, | take the
liberty of asking you to correct some OF
the statements therein. Whatis SAID by
Miss Davis is. of course correct in every
particular, but there are some sugges-
lions at the end of the report IN question
that would be annoying to any one were
they not 50 absurd.
FOR PERSONAL REASONS.
She broke her engagement with me
for personal reasons only, as she is re-
ported to state, and 1t is ridiculous to
suppose that political or financial reasons
hal anything to do with it. The impu-
tation of any mercenary motive to her
is false and would he dignilied by call
ing it unjust ANY one who knows Miss
Davis or who has ever known Mr.. Davis
or any OF bis family knows that by no
possibility could they be influenced by
mercenary motive.
DECIDED BEFORE THE BURNING.
7 am certain that the same is true of
all their intimate friends. Furthermore,
Miss Davis has known for year or two,
il not longer, that was poor, and with
in the last year my circumstances have
much improved. The burning of our
house, though a serious loss, had no.
thing TO do with her decision, Tor she
had decided t. terminate our engage
ment before that happened.
ANY INQUIRIES IMPERTTyTNT.
When lady decides to break her
engagement the gentleman has nothing
to do but to submit. and feel that any
inqnlry into Miss Dayis's motives Is I'M
pertinent -.
NV only reason, therefore, for this
statement is the silly and unjust reports
which have been circulated, some pur-
porting to come from my friends, lm-
putting 10 Miss Davis motives entirely
foreign to one of her high birth and char
acter.

in question allows a reopening OF origi-

and in effect declares that the bill enact
ed by Congress does not restore the
mower of the Kansas prohibitory law as
against original-packsge saloons because
the Kansas law was passed prior to and
not after the act of Congress. In Cedar

There were about 1900 children ac-
