Clarence Wellman was dunn bfounded
lie went down the wide, white steps
with lazed look in his big dark eyes
and a pallor creeping into his hand
some face.
What could have happened What
was the cause of her strange and un-
precedented action? He had surely
done nothing to offend her. All. had
she heard of that mild little filtration
with Beatrice Palmer at the beach p
Pshaw! his Jeanie was too sensible to
mind a small matter like that, knowing
as she did that all his love was hers
But what in the name of the stars was
the matter? And she wouldn't conde
sccnd to explain.
The story of young Mr.. Wellman S
trouble was this. He was very, very
much in love with Jeanie Forman, the
beautiful and amiable daughter of one
of the most prominent business men in
The great city, and he lad every rea-
son to suppose that she loved him.
That afternoon he had sent her billet
douX, in which he had as ked permission
to call in the evening, but no reply had
been returned whatever. Evening
came, and he called anyhow, thinking
that either his note or her reply had
not been delivered, or there was some
trining mistake that could be instantly
explained.
But what was his amazement when
Miss Forman sent word to the parlor
that she would not see him why
not p he had asked. Tell him never
to try to see me again, was the answer,
No wonder the young man was mys
titled anil astounded as he went down
the wide steps of the mansion to the
street and hailed cab. He gaye the
address of his club, and taen as he was
rolled away over the street he sunk
back into the cushions, and gloomily
rondered over his sweetheart's remark
able conduct.
There must be some mistake he
nuttered between his teeth, this is
not like Jeanne. After that note this
afternoon, too-the tenderest I ever
sent her She couldn't have taken Of
fer Sc at that. No, by jovel she could
not have taken ofense at that. No, by
love. she's in love with that simperlng
old idiot, Canmann. She ashamed to
see NE, by Jove!'
All sorts of theories and conclusions
employed his mind during the ride, and
by the time the club was reached he
was no nearer a satisfactory explana-
ton than when he closed the door of
the Forman mansion.
By this time, however, his astonish-
ment and chagrin had been partially
by anger, and he felt that
Miss Forman had been very lnconsider-
ate and rude to him. He would write
to her for an explanation, but he would
be very cool and dlgnified about it.
AS he entered the club he was still
and he nodded to his acqualn-
tances with less cordiaIlty than usual.
They noticed his unusual expression,
and laughed and chafed him until he
was forced to smile in return.
Wellman was Il favorite there, for he
vas genial, handsome, and rich, and
lad the rare faculty of making and
keeping friends.
He did not pause for conversation
With any OF the good fellows, but push
ID OF into the writing room, where he
meant to indite a note o Miss Forman. |

lay had been prepared.

Sad Suicide in her Wedding
Clothes Of a Soldiers
Wife in Washington.

New YORK. Aug. 10. The com plete
paralysis of all traffic on the New York Cen
trail road caused by the Knights of Labor
when they they struck their first blow Fri
day night led them to believe that they
could maintain the stoppage of business on
the roads of the company. This they have
that general feeling Of disappointment
prevails among the strikers, though they
will not admit this. They placed strong
reliance upon the assistance OF the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers, who, &C
cording to many of the Knights, were to
have taken a hand in the fight last night.
Mr.. Holland himself told reporter that
there was an understanding to that effect,
but to-day he said he had heard nothing
further about the matter, and could not tell
what the Brotherhood would do
A prominent member of the Brother
hood said to-day that the locomotive en-
gineers were not to be in this strike It was
not their fight, but of course, he added,
should they be ordered out they would go.
He did not think such an order would be
given. The Brotherhood, said several 9TH
ers, remembers the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy strike, in which their places were
taken by knights Of Labor, and are not
over anxious to help the Knights now.
TRAIN SCHEDULE RESUMED.
To-day the regular schedule passeng er
service of the Hudson River & New York
Central and the Harlem roads was resumed,
the only change being the consolidation of
certain outgoing Western trains. The
Southwestern limited and the Chicago linn
tied were consolidated and left on the
SOntl Westerns time 10.O0 no
North Shore vestibule limited, which was
to have left at 4:5O p m was consolidated
with the fast Western express, and left at
6 p. m. All the other trains left on sched-
ule time, and the local trains took on pass
engers up the road as usual.
The tie-up on the West Shore road which
was inaugurated last night did not affect
passenger traffic. The freight business was
brought to standstill, but the passenger
trains ran as usual, and there was very little
delay. The through Boston trains on the
New Haven road left as usual. The3 o'clock
train this afternoon carried out Farragut
post, OF Portsmouth, Va; Warden post, of
Norfolk, Va, and Devin post, of New York
ofthe G. A. R. celebration in Boston. Po-
lice Captain McIlvain, who is on duty a.
the Grand Central depot reported every
thing exceedingly quiet. Not an arrest had
been made, and none Of the strikers had
been seen around the depot or along the
line of the road. He said:
ORDERLY STRIKERS ..
Though all necessary precautions are taken
TO MP any demonstration in the bud do not
anticipate any trouble. It looks very much to
me as if the whole thing will be over by Tuesday
morning I am not. OF course, speaking Off
cially, but from general hearsay. Ihsve seldom
seen more orderly crowd of strikers. There
are no loungers around, and no gatherings any
where. The men confer at their headquarters,
and do so quietly.

SPOKANE FALLS Special Telegram, Aug
10.--Mrs Clara Allen committed suicide by
drowning in Lake Coeur d'Alene under dis
tressing circumstances. She was the wife
Of Private Allen, of the Fourth regiment,
United States army, stationed at Fort Sher-
man. His desertion few days ago created
a local sensation. His wife, an educated
lady and a favorite in military social circles
at the post, assumed an unnaturally viva
cious attitude, attracting a great deal Of
comment. Lady friends who were aware
OF her condition attempted to soothe her,
but her excitement increased. She did
not refer to her husbands dis
grace, but kept up continual degree of
merriment wholly contrary to her usually
quiet demeanor. In the evening she went
out alone for walk on the beach. Her
long absence created alarm, and squad of
soldiers went out to bring her home The
search was continued all night and in the
morning her body hoated ashore She had
leaped from rock and deliberately ended
her life
A note on her dressing case explained
that her bridal robes had never been worn
since her wedding day, and she wished to
be arrayed in them for the grave. The gar
ments, including cream satin gown, white
kid slippers and underwear were found
neatly folded together, and the ladies at
the post saw that the unfortunate young
woman's last wish was complied with,

able CORRESPONDENCE Of decided
personal nature which had its origin in
local railroad deal then pending between
Judge John B. Jones, an attorney, Allis
and Coffee. Allis accused Jones Of
being trickster. Jones came
back at him, with batch of
letters on the subject and one from Capt
Coffee, eorroborating his (Jones) side of
the story. Mr.. Al1is then distributed
dodger throughout the city, replying to
Judge Jones, in which this language was
used:
So far as Coffee is concerned admit that it is
IN keeping with his conduct Throughout. They

This reused Capt. Coffee's ire which
found its outlet in his letter to Allis, which
the latter read in the presence of Perry and
stated that he declined to answer it, And
