"COunt" Mttkiewicz Declared Innocent
 of Certain Charges Against Him.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-"Count" Eugene de Mitk iewicz, the famous promoter of Chinese concession schemes, appeared at the Tombs Police Court yesterday for examination on the charge of having ob- tained $1, 750 under false pretenses from Arthur k. Tones, of Brooklyn.
 The "Count" came on from Washing ton, where he has been living recently Wednesday night, and surrendered him. self to Police Justice Grady, who paroled him in the custody of his counsel.
 Before the case was begun lawyer Burke, counsel for Tones, said he did not care to go on with the case until he had all the witnesses present.
 Justice Grady thought the case could proceed until they ran out of witnesses, and Tones then began to testify. He told how he met Mitkiewicz, and how the latter induced him to place a mort gage on his home in Brook lyn, assuring him that the money would be returned by Col. Elliott F. Shepard and others.
 The court then said that the only point involved was whether the money had been obtained on false pretence that it would be returned by Col. Shepard and others
 William r. Burr was the next witness after Tomes He testified that through all the transaction he understood that the money was to be repaid by Col. Shepard.
 On cross examination, witness said that Mitkiewicz once told him that he had Col Shepard on the hip, and that he could force him to pay the money back. 7"
 Lawyer Brooke, counsel for Mitkiewicz, asked for the dismissal of the complaint on the ground that no evidence had been submitted showing that the Count had handled one cent of the money in ques- tion.
 Justice Grady thereupon granted his motion

A MANS NECKTIE.

Hints for Wives to Follow In the Selection
 ot This Important Article.
 Many d man who will trust his wife with the disposition of half his kingdom won't let her select a ncelltic for him. And with reason. A woman is alto Gcthcr too likely to pick out what men call d ''prctty nccltic." It is wont to Ec of a delicate tint, pale gray or white with little flower spri|S in it-SOmc- thing lady-lille and dainty, but com porting ill with the soli,lity and solcm- nifty of masculine attire. Now, d man hates a pretty nccl<tic, and when he wears one uncomplainingly it is a ccr- tain test of his affection.
 A figured ncclltic suits a man usually if the background is of a solid color, with small conventional pattern in contrasting color. Most men have a special liking for dark blue four-in- hands, with tiny figures of dark red or brown, or blue For some occult reason few men can be persuaded to try any of the dull bronzes and olive greens, and so few of them are found in the shops The dull grays, with figures of lighter tone, or vice versa, men find suitable for occasions between ordinary dress and evening dress. But for business wear they prefer solid dark colors or a small irregular figure on dark ground. Set patterns are not dear to the aver age mans heart, except in the white crape ties worn in summer; a fine tracery, with here and there decided dash, is what he feels safest in wearing. For the wash neckties worn in sum- mer these rules are reversed. There the daintiest colors prevail, and a man is likely to feel justified in availing himself of them in warm weather. The pale pink or dull blue or tans, with | white stripes in four-in-hand shape few
 men except those past middle life, de | cline to wear, especially when the stuff
 is substantial, like the Bedford cords
 and figures.
 For evening wear but two styles are permitted to man, either a narrow white lawn tie-not white satin one
 or narrow black silk or satin one 1 From this there is no departure. Nc K woman, therefore, can offer a greater ! affront to the man she loves, if he be
 man of taste, than to present him witl

INVESTIGATING THE PINKERToNs.
The Senatorial Committee Begins Exam
 nation in Chicago.

Aho DekihS hAunD inAtion in Chicago. CHICAGO, Nov. lS-Senator Gallinger of New Hampshire and Senator Peffer of Kansas, of the Senatorial Committee of seven appointed in August by President Harrison to investigate the Homestead affair, have begun their examination of the Chicago end of the relations between the labor organizations and the de- tectives.
 Superintendent Frank Murray of the Chicago Pinkerton Agency, was the first witness called. In reply to questions MT. Murray said the Pinkerton Agency kept on hand Winchester rifles, rev olvers and ammunition for strike cases, gave special rates to corporations, required references as to character of men en- ployed for strike purposes and exercised as much care in selecting them as in selecting men for the patrol and detective services.
 The witness denied that the men sent by the agency to Homestead were armed here, but admitted that arms were trans mitted in advance of their departure. He did not know at what point the men were armed.
 Assistant-Supt. Davidson, ot the Pink erton agency, wac also called, but his testimony was not Of much importance. ASkeu whether the men sent to dOme- stead had been sworn in as deputy sher- ifs, he said he did not know. William A. Pinkerton and Robert A. Pinkerton,
 the witness said, could give the desired information.
 Senator Gallinger said he would ask those gentlemen to appear before the committee in Washington in December, and MT. Robertson was commissioned to convey letters to them from the Senators. H. o. DeVereaux, MT. Pinkerton's l superintendent, and R. K. Pinkerton, brother and partner, both gave testimony, but did not furnish any additional in formation.
 Charles Renke, who had worked for
 various detective agencies, also gave tes timony.
 Frank c. Newell and Samuel Richards, employees of the Illinois steel company advocated compulsory arbitration as the l only remedy for strikes. The investiga tion is being continued to-day.

 WASHINGTON, Nov. l9.-Lieut. Peary, who recently returned from Greenland, has been requested by number of Pnila- delphia gentlemen to make another trip to that region.
 Mir. Peary expressed his willingness to do so, provided he could get the necessary leave of absence from the Navy Depart mcnt.
 He is an engineer on the roll of the Bureau of Yards and Docks. He applied for three years leave, but his application has not yet been granted. Secretary Tracy can not see his way clear to excuse him for this period, as engineers are needed in the service, according to the re- port of Commodore Farquhar.

slSn or peace, anu as showing that La cluse had not repeated to Forget my in- cautious words of the morning. For the which, being now in a more sober frame of mind, I felt glad, as perceived that duel would probably bring me under the notice of the authorities, and might get me into serious trouble.
 We had an excellent supper, and, as the officers were all merry fellows, we spent an enjoyable evening.
 At midnight Lacluse suggested that 1t was time we broke up.
 ''But before we separate" he contin- ued, "we have to arrange that little af- fair you know of. I have informed NJ Forget that you thought fit to qualify the execution of De GeX as murder"
 "for the which, unless you retract," :" put in the lieutenant, with a bow, "I have the honor to demand satisfaction ''
 ''1 stick to what said, and am quite at your service," I answered, also bow ing.
 "This, need hardly say, is highly ir- regular" observed Lacluse; "but the circumstances are exceptional. M. Roy is prisoner of war, under surveillance"
 ''Yes; I have been followed about by rascally spy all day"
 Exactly. And dare say you have no friends in Paris whom you could ask to act for you"
 Not a soul-unless it be yourself"
 ''That would not be comme il faut. Lieut.. Forget is my particular friend. But the difficulty is easily sur mounted. l have already spoken to ces mcssieurs, and they will be your seconds"
 II am greatly obliged to them," said, lowing to the two captains.
 After acknowledging the salute Bouillon observed that, as I was the challenged party, 1t was for me to choose the weapons. Ships cutlasses, boarding bikes, or pistols, as NJ. le Lieutenant may please" I answered, carelessly.
 "Let us say pistols then. I don't !, know much about cutlasses and board. ing-pikes," said Forget.
 After some further conversation it was arranged that the captains should sec Forget's seconds (two officers of his regimcnO and that we should fight at daybreak in the Bois de Boulogne whither 1 was to go with Lacluse and { surgeon of his acquaintance. In fact everything had been cut and dried be- forehand, and when we got home La cluse showed me a pair of beautiful duelling pistols, which he was goot enough to place at my disposal for the occasion.
 1 should have preferred cutlasses; but as knew how to handle pistol ant could shoot pretty straight, had no1 much fear for the result.

How storms Travel.

The storms that cross our country
are divided into two classes, one in
which there is deficiency of pressure,
known as "low," the storm center being
q vacuum, or the place where the
atmospheric pressure is least, and the
winds blow spirally inward ard upward
toward the center, with motion op.
posite to the hands of watch, and are
generally attended by warm, moist air.
They travel across the country at an
average rate OF about six hundred miles
in twenty-four hours. It occasionally
occurs that their speed is greatly ac-
clerated. Especially is it great when
the major, or longest, axis (Which is de
termined by the shape Of the isobars)
extends east and west, and radius Is
confined to narrow limits. In such
cases the wind often exceeds o velocity
OF fifteen hundred miles in twenty-four
hours, and tho rain or snow which falls
is caused by the warm, moist air ascend
ing to q considerable height, where the
moisture is condensed by the cold OF
expansion, aud the precipitation over
the entire track becomes unusually
heavy. Such storms, as rule, follow
the course of heaviest rainfall. From
"How the Weather is Forecast" in
Demorest's Family Magazine for June.
