The extent to which the contents
of leaking cesspoll or privy may
pollute the soil is well illustrated by

-Stagnant water in cities, is one Of
the most dangerous of nuisances, it

An easy method of utilizing bath
water to an advantage where sanitary
sewers are not located is to convey the
water from the bath tub, into the
garden or lawn, by coupling" a
rubber hose to the iron pipe of the
bath tub, and attach sprinkling pot

and then turn the bath water loose.

mileage built during any year since 1881.
when only 3,13l miles of track Wee
laid. This decrease is quite evenly dis
tributed over the country, each group of
states showing a decrease with the eX-
ception of tie middle states (New York,
New Jersey. Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Maryland), which show an increase Of
50 per cent. over last year and the larg-
est mileage constructed during any year
since 1888. The six south Atlantic
states have laid the largest amount #

gland states the smallest. fifty miles
Pennsylvania heads the list with 253

Opinions of Two Leading New
York Financiers
AS to Business Prospects in
the United States.

Our Enormous Grain Crops and tho
Heavy Shipment of Breadstuffs to For
eign Countries Have Contributed More
Than Enything Else to the Betterm ent
of Our Condition.
BALTIMORE, Jan. 2.-The Manufac-
turers Record publishes special letters
from leading New York fnanciers as to
the general and financial outlook for
1899.
President French, of the Manhattan
Trust company, after referring to the
enormous grain crops and the heavy
foreign shipment of breadstuffs, says:
"The real improvement resulting from
this addition to our wealth is shown in
the payment Of the interest, and in
many instances the principal, of
those western farm mortgages which
have, during previous years, been in
precarious condition. 1t is also
shown in the increased bank re-
serves of the western institutions
which for the first time in the history of
the national banking system have
reached, and even exceeded, the re-
serves of the eastern cities. New York,
also, now be gins to feel this accumula-
ton of money, the bank statement of
the past week showing the largest de-
posits on record Gp455, 900, ,000) with
corresponding reserve ($36, 100000 in
excess of the legal requirement. With
a sound financial system nothing can
prevent this country from soon taking
the lead of the world in business and
finance, and America will hold the
sceptre of commercial supremacy"
MIR. I'll. w. Cannon, president of the
Chase National bank, writes:
"From present indications the COM
mercial outlook for 1892 is most excel
lent. The financial disturbances of the
past year in Europe appear to have near
ly passed away, and the money market
in London, Paris and Berlin has assumed
nearly a normal condition. We have
harvested bountiful crop, not of cereals
only, but of fruits and vegetables. In
fact all the products of the soil have
been most plentiful, quite the contrary
being the case in Europe. We are able to
supply our neighbors across the water
with food products at reasonable prices
and the balance of trade will be in our
favor for some time to come. AS we
may expect to receive money in return
for food products, as well as securities,
the money market in the United States
will probably be easy, and all sorts of
business in this. country will probably be
stimulated thereby 1t is to be hoped
that speculation will not" become too
rampant with us, and that we will not
put up the prices of our products and
securities during the next six months l.
an abnormal point"

A gLuchER EoR A HUSBAND.
Sensational Ending of Miss Loeb's Ad.
venture.


venture.
NEW YORK, Jan. Count Ferdinand
Franz Gebhard Leberecht Won Blucher
of Germany, a grandson of the Blucher
of Waterloo, is heartily tired of his
American matrimonial experience. His
career as a husband was brief, sensa-
tional and unsatisfactory. About a
year ago the count was married to Miss
Alma Loeb, a daughter of Phillip Loeb,
of 591 Lafayette avenue, Brooklyn. The
marriage took place in Milwaukee,
where Miss Loeb had married sister,
Mrs. Fichtenburg, whom she was Wis
iting.
The count is now in this city trying to
get a divorce and according to his story
the marriage took place under very pecu-
liar circumstances, only three days after
he first met Miss Loeb.
The count said he was sitting in Miss
Loeb's room at o'clock in the evening,
when her relatives rushed in, declaring
that he must marry her in order to save
her name. They went ont and returned
with a Methodist Episcopal minister,
who performed the ceremony. On the
morning following the nuptial night the
count declares that his wife was kid
naped and returned to her home in
Brooklyn. The counts father, who is
Prince Butcher Won Waldstott. on hear
ing of the marriage, Immediately cut
down the counts allowance to $3.50 per
month and informed him that no Amer
lean girl would be accepted as fit wife
for one who bore the name of Blucher.
Count Blucher came on to Brooklyn
and had an interview with Father-in-
law Loeb. Mr.. Loeb was inclined to
favor the titled son-in-law; but learning
Of his CHANGED financial condition, and
that Prince JIucher threatened to stop
even the allowance of $3.50 per month,
he very promptly turned his aristocratic
son-in-law out Of the house. The count
was in despai" and again wrote to his
father, asking for funds. Silence was
the only answer until recently, when
Prince Blue ,er cabled Count Ferdinand
to at once obtain divorce and return to
his native land, but not to do so until he
could come without wife.
