CoLvMBrs, O., Aug. e.-Another sem
sational turn occurred in the Elliott
case, now pending argument for new
trial. The attorneys had assembled,
asking for continuance until Saturday
in behalf of their client. Before they
had finished Judge Pugh received u
mysterious telegram, which, after read
ing, he handed to Tom Powell, with the
remark, "These things had better
cease"
The message was at once destroyed
but it has been ascertained that it came
from Editor W. S. Cappeller, OF Mans
field, and was request that sentence be
suspended, pending the action, for u
new trial which will be made in this
circuit court.
A telegram was sent to Cappeller
asking why he had become so peculiar
ly Interested in the case. The reply
was that he had received telegram
from w. J. Elliot asking him to wire
Judge Pugh in his behalf, since he was
q near relative to the Judge. Cappeiier
had served with Elliot as one OF the
board OF managers OF the Mansfield
Penitentiary, and did as the condemned
murderer requested. The court is
highly incensed ut the attorneys for per-
mitting such an action of their client
tending to interfere with the course
of Justice, and he will undoubtedly SEN
tence the prisoner to the penitentiary
Saturday morning, having him removed
thereto Immediately afterwards.

To Have Arranged to Handle Three
Quarters of the Crop.
TorExA, KAxs., Aug. G.-J, B. French
secretary of the Kansas State Farmers
Alliance, states that the business branch
OF the Alliance has completed arrange
ments by which it will handle three
quarters of the Kansas wheat
crop of 5O,0OO,O0O bushels. Ar
rangements have been made to store Mt
least half of the crop in the big
elevator in Kansas City, Chicago, Gin
cfnnati, Baltimore and other large cities
for an indefinite period, or until the
owners desire to sell, Arrangements
have been made in the East to secure
an advance on the wheat stored Of
seventy-tive per cent. OF the present
value of wheat. This new movement
by the Alliance practically corners the
Kansas crop.

PIuLADELrnA, Pa, Aug. 6.-City
Treasurer Wright to-day received a
communication from Auditor General
McCamant enclosing n statement from
Attorney General Hensel, in which the
city's indebtedness to the State for un-
paid State tax on mercantile taxes is
fixed at $4,000. Accompanying the
Attorney Generals statement was q de.
mand that the amount named be i'm.
mediately paid to the State Treasurer.
The records OF tho city treasurer's
office show that John Bardsley, while
city treasurer, received money, but there
is no reco.d showing that he paid it to
the State. There was some doubt
all along as to whether the State
would take this step, it being laid to the
credit Of Controller Thompson by a care

Joo Jenerson's SON Tom.

The talk that is going on about the
marriage Of Ward McAllsters nephew
with ballet girl recalls an interesting
incident in the life of Joseph jefferson,
the comedian. When Jefferson returned
from his triumphal engagement in Lon
don number of New York swels deter
mined to honor the actor who had made
so great stir in England. Accordingly
splendid dinner was given TO Jefferson,
and all the conspicuous representatives of
Gotham swelldom were there. II befell
that on the very morning of the day when
this great banquet was served Jenerson's
son Tom married very pretty and esti-
mable girl who had been member of
one of the spectacular ballets. So during
the banquet one of the guests "a very swell
parsonage y referred to newspaper item
in which Toms prospective wedding was
mentioned.
YES, It is true, said Mr.. Jefferson.
Tom was married to-day
but II is not true, | suppose, that he
married ballet girl?'' inquired the arsto-
cratic person.
YES, it is true answered Mr.. Jcffer-
son. laConically.
"Ah, did not suppose you would allow
your SON to marry ballet girl said the
other.
"And why not?" asked Mr.. jefferson.
His mother was ballet girl "

The marble bust of Vice President Levi
T. Morton by +. Edwin Elwell of New

shortly be placed in one Of the inches of
the Senate chamber. Mr. Clark, the

one of the busts opposite the presiding

the bust of Mr.. Morton 1t is to be re-
GREETED that 50 lifclike q representation of
the Nlce-President should be doomed to
the obscure light of the Senate chamber.
1t has been suggested, very sensibly,
that the busts Of the Nice-Presidents be
placed at the foot of the gallery, where
they would have n splendid top light and
show to good advantage the character of
the men who have occupied the prom
inent place of Vice President OF the
United States; and this change of posi-
tiOn may possibly be made later on. The
architect Of the Capitol has shown rare
good judgment in having the work made
from life. Too often important matters
of this kind are left until it is too late
accurately to portray the character of
the men who have held this great office.
II is said that Mr.. Elwell modelled the
bust in two sittings of three hours each,
and perhaps this accounts for the spirit
and yigor Of its handling. Mr.. Morton's
face is one that is sculpturesque, having
the large noble qualities often found in
the Greek sculptures. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Morton have expressed themselves rs
satisfied with the result Mr.. Morton
himself chose Mr.. Elwell TO make the
bust, which is of heroic size.

lee Camp of Confederate Veterans will
have its weekly meeting tonight, and we
trust that il will make arrangements for a
great gathering here OF old Confederatos
TO hear culogics upon General Joseph T..
Johnston. His burial was severely pri-
yatc and thus the public were deprived
of the opportunity which was their right
to ray respect to his memory,
IL is in our power TO remedy this in
part, and Richmond is the place where
our veterans should gather TO hear the
greatest orators whose services we can
command discuss General Juhnston's
military career and pay tribute to his per
soual and official worth.
II will be for the camp, or whoever un-
dortakcs this patriotic duty, to determine
whether it Will be better 10 have this
meeting now or on Confederate Memorial
Day. It seems q pity that there should be
any further delay, yet If the meeting
should be deferred until May, orators
might be secured who would not other
wise serve, and who would thus have am
PIE time in which to prepare themselves.
Orations so prepared would be chapters
ready.made for history.
IL Is likely that the family Of General
Johnston Will refuse any request for the
removal OF his remains, but IL is our duty,
nevertheless, to make the effort, and we
believe all the Southern people will sec
ond our request that the bodies Of the
General and his wife be transferred from
baltimore TO Richmond.

A walk down the Albany Turnpike,
from Tariytown to Dobbs Ferry, i'm
Wcstchestor County, leads one past the
residences Of moro millionaircs than any
other walk of six miles in the world.
by actual count there are sixty-siN
mill,unaircs housed In that vicinity. So
Tar as fences go. their tastes vary.
Jay Gould's fence IL, perhaps the most
massive Of all To an imaginative mind
it appears like the front of q safe de-
post vault, to shut in his millions from
The outside world. II is composed of big
stones, symmetriCally cut, and strongly
ccmcntcd, the whole crowned with pro-
jcciirg coping. Behind this is a dense
hedge, which completely shuts out the
view beyond, which is really magnificent.
Heavy, square, tail pos,s support semi
rustic gates.
l.. s. Jafrray, the dry goods man, is
next in order. His fence is low stone
wall, very plain, and over it fair view is
to- be bad of his lawn and the Hudson be-
yOnd, where he used to have his steam
yacht the Stranger, lying at anchor
when in commission.
G. l.. Tiffany, the great jeweler, has
truly artistic fence and entrance TO his
grounds II is rustic in design and many
regard il as the most artistic in the neigh
borhood. Large double gates of rustic
work open to admit visitors. and oyer
head, between the posts, ii is in panel ar
rangcment, each panel differing in design
from the next.
Fletcher HaTer's boundary line is
marked by solid stone wall in blocks set
in mortar like immense bricks in house
front. II is more of a retaining wall than
an ordinary fouce, and the lawn comes
down with gentle slope to its top.
Cyrus W, Fields residence is little
way back from Dubbs Ferry on the
height. His fence is in marked contrast
with the others, being made up of almost
spherical boulders dug up on the adjacent
grounds. 1t saved carting them away.
All sorts of vines grow in and out through
