ADJUSTMENTS.
1.-THE WAITS OF NEW YORK;

Katie Emmet's play 1.-THE Waits of New
York" is something between ST Plunkard
and the story Milton Mobiles wrote for the
"Chambermaid's Own" 1t fairly reeks
with Williams still pursued her, fires, rail-
way accidents and butcher knife combats
and so it goes without saying that it drew
forth the united and tumultuous shopts of
five hundred Threats in the gallery. The
house was big and not of the ultra critical
otherwise the benches would have heen
torn up at the plot and some of the displays
of acting. Miss Emmett herself is fairy
bright but her precociousness becomes
somewhat wearisome before the final
curtain falls. The play goes again to-
night.

She Claims to Have Been Robbed ond
Spirited Away From Chicago.
Cincinnati Sept. ll-A large woman
with blonde hair was arrested At the
corner of 9th and Elm SITS. tonight and
taken to the House of Detention. Her
clothing was torn and dissrrsnged and
she had the appearance of having been
roughly treated. She says her name is
Vera Ava but she cannot account for
being in Cincinnati. She tells re-
markable story Of being in Chicago
yesterday and that with Mrs. Bolton
drove IN . carriage TO tho house of
Father Kelly, . Catholic priest Of that
city. She went to the priests house
alone with = satchel containing several
thousand dollars. While talking to the
priest some persons threw shawl over
her head ard robbed her of the bag Of
valuables she had in her hand. They
then put her in = carriage and drove
rapidly away. The woman - under
the impression that she WAS brought
here from Chicago. Before being ar
rested che made application for room
at one of the leading hotels here, bnt
WAS refused on account Of her shabby
appearances. The woman 10 held on
suspicion.

Mrs. Peter Fulton kindly took the
poor woman to her homo next door,
where she was offered all the consola-

through the crowd and found his
youngest child, which WAS uninjured.
The alarm Was turned in at 9 O'Clock.
The house Was owned by Christian
Shr ader, and is fully insured. The loss
to Mr.. and Mrs. DeHaan on their furnl-
ture amounts to 800.
There are various thories ~ to the
origin of the fire. Tho parents think
the lamp in the child's room exploded,
and this belief 10 entertained by the
neighbors. This was undoubtedly the
cause, though at first the firemen were
inclined to think it started in the back
part of the house and extended to the
front.

New York, Sept. 11.-Miss Mary v.
Emit recently caused the arrest of

ing her jewelry and then refused to
complain against him when he was
taken to the police court. Miss Emit
has now brought suit in the Supreme
Court for $50, 900 for breach of promise

from her and jewels worth $500. be-
sides promising to marry her. Buttles

Constantinople is the Coveted Prise.
London, Sept. 11.-A correspondent
who has been visiting the Russian
southwestern frontier at Bessarabia,
as far as the Danube, says that troops
are rapidly arriving In large numbers
This would be the base OF departure
Tor Russian army advancing toward
the Balkins and Constantinople. At
Tutshkoff four regiments were quar-
tered, where last year there were only
two. AT Vulkovo and Kilia five reg
iments had recently arrived in addition
to the men already there. At Kagul
three regiments arrived about a
month ago, and at Jalpuch re-en-
forcements OF 1000 men have been re-
ceived. The troops are pouring at
the same rate into other villages
These places are OF little consequence
apart from their situation, where an
army of invasion would NATURALLY
concentrate. In view of these facts
the correspondent concludes that Rus
sia intends at no distant date to move
across the Danube for Constantinople
and that her preparations show that
this time she means to have force suffi-
cient to overcome all obstacles.
The number OF troops engaged In
the Russian army maneuvers In the
government OF Podolia, Kieff and Vol
hynia is about one hundred thousand.
They are all drawn from the interior
and there is no diminution OF the great
garrison scattered along the Austro-
Russian boundary. The maneuvers
are attended by the leading military
commanders in European Russia, and
press representatives, both foreign and
native, are excluded. The st. Peters
burg and Moscow newspapers will be
supplied by the government with such
information as it Is thought best to
give. 1t is known that the maneu-
yers include the feature OF educating
the troops to familiarity with smoke
less powder, and that special attention
Is given to the efficiency OF the new
rifle recently adopted by the car.
Berlin correspondent says that
there is a good deal of quiet satisfac-
tion in high quarters with the situa-
ton In the Dardanelles and the fact
that England, which has been holding
aloof from the triple alliance, may now
have to beg the assistance OF the al
lance to stop the course taken by
Russia. There is no probability, how
ever. that Germany will interfere as
long rs the question at issue is con-
fined to the passage OF the straits by
tbe Russian vessels OF war or other
wise.
