This is so good story that it lsa

IN LOVE WITH HIS RIDDLES.
Remenyi Has Sixty-Two Instruments Car
rYing an Insurance of $4,000.

Remenyi Has Sixty-TwO Instruments Car
rying an Insurance of $4,000.
The fondness of musicians for their
instruments is proverbial, but it is
doubtful if there are any more en-
thusiastic collectors of valuable in
struments than the violin virtuoso,
Remenyi. The maestro knows the
pedigree of every famous violin in the
world, and, if his fortune were suf-
fcient, it is probable he would acquire
the greater portion of them. His col
lection is not large, but it is considered
among the very best in existence, en-
bracing as it does fine specimens of
Amati, Cremona, Guarnierius, Stradi-
varius, Lupot Magini and others. The
San Francisco Examiner says Remenyi
carries more insurance on his violins
and expresses more solicitude about
them than most people do on and about
their lives. His collection consists Of
siXty-two instruments, and the value
that he places upon them would make
an insurance mans hair turn gray.
Strive as he will, he cannot induce the
dSChlo W Bitdtei ION biioh
ninety thousand dollars on them, and
on this amount he cheerfully pays
premium annually. OF course they do
not all accompany him in his travels,
but even the four or five specimens
that form part of his personal baggage
on concert tours represent, in his eyes
at least, considerable fortune. "The
Titan" and Her Ladyship" are two
special pets which are seldom out of
sight. For one he has refused twelve
thousand dollars and for the other the
astonishing sum of twenty-five thou
sand dollars. They have joint occupa-
ton of heavy sole leather case, and
the old masters solicitude for them
would be comical but for the genuine
ness of his distress when he fears they
are threatened with injury.

A Motion Made for a Cessation of

Will the Yuma gentlemen who are
engaged in the Montague Island contro.

business.
The Importance of the Montague
Island affair is of course fully recogniz.
ed but it is of a character which will
permit postponement or continuance
while the silver question in view of the
present financial uncertainty and doubt,
with daily disastrous consequences
needs immediate attention.
The screaming curlew, the rising and
the ebbing tide. the monthly and ad-
ventnrous discoveries and explorers
from Yuma will keep tab on Montague
Island. 1t ia too much to expect of the
American People that it should divide
its attention between these two mo-
mentous questions without damage to
one or the other. Why not sandwich
the Montague Island matter between
the adjustment OF the silver muddle
and the impending tariff reform agita-

THE BEE HIVE
Is Under the Control of a
Receiver.
News of the Collapse Re-
ceived With Surprise.
Mortgages Amounting to $22,-
500 Filed Late Last Night.
The Receiver Re-employs the Dis
charged Employees and Busl-
ness VIII Continue.

The Bee Hive last night passed into
the hands of receiver for the benefit
OF its creditors representing an in
debtedness OF $22,500. News OF the
failure created great surprise as it was
generally supposed that the affairs OF
the proprietor, Mr.. L. H. Winters, were
in prosperous condition. There had
however been quiet rumors for the past
six months that the concern WAS suffer-
ing financial EN- Embarrassment.
Mr.. Winters returned yesterday morn
ing from the eastern markets where he
went month ago to place orders for
the fall and winter stock. On his ar
rival it was found that the crisis had
come and the adjustment OF affairs was
Immediately begun.
There was transfer by deed OF some
real estate in the afternoon held by Mr..
Winters to Theresa Moone for con.
sideration of 1880, after which chattel
mortgages were executed to the follow
ing parties in the following sums:
The Arizona National Bank, SIS 5000 /;
Levy Strauss & Co., $1,000; PhiIadel.
phis firm, $4,000 and Alice Clifford
$500. These mortgages were filed at
6 80 last night and at the request OF
the mortgages, Mr.. A. L. Henshaw
was named as receiver and was put in
possession OF the stock.
Mr.. Winters discharged all the EN-.
ployes of the establishment but they
were at once re-employed by the re-
ceiyer who will 60 on with the business
without a break.
The stock is estimated to be worth
sac, 900 an estimate based as closely as
possible upon the invoices OF the goods.
The bulk Of the Indebtedness is repre-
scented almost entirely in the amount oil
the mortgages mentioned above.
1t was impossible last night to obtain
a statement or definite information as
to the future intentions of Mr.. Winters
but it is believed that the affairs of the
Bee Hive can be adjusted 80 that be
will regain the proprietorship.
He left last night for San Francisco
on business connected with the affair.
The Bee Hive has been in existence
about four years and from small be,
ginning had grown to be one of the lar.
gest and leading mercantile institutions
OF the southwest. 1t was said last
night by'a gentleman connected indi
rectly with the settlement of its affairs
that under whatever management, il
wou Id still be kept permanently in OPP
Grafton.
The cause of the collapse is said to be
an inability to make collections and a
failure, in consequence of the present
business depression, to move the stock
as rapidly as was expected when pur
chases were made for the spring and
summer trade.

President of Meridian National Bank
in Dangerous Condition.

President W. p Gallup of the Meridian
National Bank, is lying critically i'll at his
residence, No. $50 North Tennessee street.
A week ago he seized with an attack
of the grip, which rapidly developed into
pneumonia. A few days after the attack
of the grip he was compelled to take to his
bed. DR.. F. c. Woodburn, the attending
physician, does not give much hope for a
favorable turn in his condition.
Mr.. Gallup is unmarried and for a num-
Der of years has been living with his
brother, also unmarried, in the home on
North Tennessee street. He came to this
city many years ago a representa-
tive of the Fairbanks Scale Company, be-
ing the first to introduce the wagon scales
IN this city. His old home was in Vermont.
This was a number of years before the war.
Afterwards Mr.. Gallup organized the firm
of Gallup, Clark & Co., grain dealers. and
became an extensive operator on the Board
of Trade, specializing none whatever in
margins. He served a term as president Of
that organization. Some twenty years ago
when the Meridian National Bank was or
ganized, Mr.. Gallup was one OF the
incorporatorS. In various capacities since
that time he has been connected with the
hank his name always standing as a evno

SLOSSON THE WINNER
Schaefer Defeated by the Student
by a Score of 600 to 541.
Second Game in the Great Triangular
Billiard Match Played Before all
Immense Audience.

NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-The second night
of the triangular billiard tournament at
Madison-square Concert Hall was in every
way as brilliant and absorbing the con-
test last night, when Ives had the advant-
age of an even hundred over Slosson at the
close of the game. The battle tonight be-
tween such old-time rivals Schaefer and
Slosson brought out crowd of cue en-
thusiasts as large. If not larger, than that
of last night, and there was great deal
more enthusiasm than there was over last
nights game. Scattered among the audi
ence was a considerable number of priests
and cIergymen who regarded the progress
of the game with quite as much interest
as the most excited of the crarks. Slosson
made strong kick last night against the
work of Referee Sexton, and tonight Geo.
Moulton. a newspaper man and first-class
billiardist. was selected to fill the position.
Slosson won the bank. and, as usual. Sc
lected the white ball. He made an exceed
ingly promising start, playing cushion
caroms all over the table and finally
punched the balls on the upper rail. His
playing at times was characterized by such
extreme delicacy of touch that he, on sew
eral occasions. almost failed TO get the
balls out of balk. His thirty-fourth shot
full position play. the balls punching again
on the upper rail. His forty-third shot was
hard masse and was made with great
ease. He failed on his fiftieth shot on diff
ficult carom. The balls were left in diff
cult position for Schaefer, and the wizard
failed to score. Then Slosson proceeded to
give clever exhibition of rail playing on
the right side of the table. His twenty-sev-
enth and twenty-eighth shots were brilliant
masses, and they evoked great applause.
1t was plain TO be seen that Slosson was in
magnificent form, and when he had run up
fifty in the second inning his opponent
looked worried
bic maSse after scoring fifty-eight. In the
sixteenth round the student heaped up sew
enty-one. most of which were clever ca
roms and open-tabIe nurses. Then Schaefer
started in to play billiards. He jabbed the
balls all over the table, and his fifty-ffth
shot was the most notable one of the even
ing. 1t was a miraculous, twice-round-the-
table carom. He broke down on a hard
made eight and then Schaefer, who was
becoming vsibly ratified, made a dismal
goose egg. He contrived to leave
the balls in very bad position,
together by bewildering bank shots
In this inning Slosson made the best plays
of the evening. He seemed to have gotten
all of a sudden absolute mastery OF the
that the very sight of made his adherents
tremble He never showed up to such beau
tiful advantage and scored 80. He now had

A BAR TENDER HELD UP.
Four Robbers Compel Louis Sheridan to
Surrender Till.

Louis Sheridan. the bar tender at the sa-
loon under St. Clair Hall, No 336 Indiana
avenue, was last night compelled to deliv-
er the contents of the cash drawer to four
men, who demanded the cash and empha-
sized their demand by presenting revolvers
at the head of the bar tender. Sheridan
says that, about 1915. four men came into
the saloon. Two of them walked up to the
bar and ordered beer. One of the others
walked to the rear door and took his stand
there; the others remained by the front
door. When Sheridan drew the beer or
dered by the two men who approached the
bar, one of them complained that there was
dirt in the glass set before him, and said.
Il don't want that"
What do you want then?" said Sheridan,
as he turned TO draw another glass of beer.
II want the money in your cash drawer"
answered the man.
AT this. Sheridan turned around and was
looking into the muZZleS of two revolvers
He was ordered to throw up his hands and
complied very readily with the request
while one of the other men emptied the

HE REFUSED INFORMATION,
But Was Guilty of No Crime-DecisiOn
in a Census Case.

TOLEDO. o.. Dec. 12.-In the United
States Circuit Court here to-day Judge
Kicks sustained the demurrer and quashed
the indictment against Jethro Mitchell.
treasurer of the Mitchell & Rowland Lum-
Der Company, for refusing to furnish in
formation TO a special census agent or to
allow the books to be inspected for that
purpose. The ground upon which the de-
murrer to the indictment of Mr.. Mitchell
was sustained was that Congress had failed
in the several acts passed to impose a duty
on the head or agents OF firms or corpora
tions engaged in productive industries, to
answer the question propounded by Census
Bureau officers. 1t was doubtless intended
to impose such a duty, but by oversight 1t
was not done. The failure to perform a
duty implied by law is not a crime Con-
gress must define the offense and affiX the
penalty before the United States courts can
acquire jurisdiction of such offenSeS. In
this case, having failed to impose the duty
to answer the questions, it is not a crime
to refuse to answer them.
