oHAR1EsroN's INSANE RABBI.
His Attack on His Bridal Trip En-
barassing For His Bride.


New York, Dec 26.-Rev. DIR. Samuel
X. Lewis, young Jewish rabbi from
Charleston, S. c., was transferred yester-
day morning from Bellevue hospital to
the Bloomingdale insane asylum. He had
suddenly shown signs of dementia while
on his wedding trip, and his pretty bride
had hurried him back to this city to have
him treated by competent specialists.
Mrs. Lewis, herself, was nearly wild
with excitement when her honeymoon
came to an abrupt end. DIR. Lewis was
not at all violent, but he had the delusion
that he was being prosecuted, and that a
conspiracy had been formed TO kill him.
EMBARRASSING FOR THE BRIDE.
He had jumped to his feet while pass
ing through Virginia on a train and
shrieked: "You only married me for my
money. will not stay with you another
hour"
Mrs. Lewis tearfully listened to his
rawlings, unable to understand at first
the change in his manner. When told by
physicians that his mind had given way,
she Immediately notified her relatives
that she was coming back to them.
DR.. Lewis marriage occurred just one
week ago to-day. The bride was Miss
Clara Ury, and the ceremony was per
formed at the residenceof Louis Scbachne,
No. 1853 East Ninety-fourth street, DIR. and
Mrs. Lewis spent last Tuesday night at
the Hotel Savoy, at Fifty-ninth street
and Fifth avenue, and started for the
south the following morning, intending to
take brief trip before DIR Lewis re-
turned to his labors in Charleston, S, @.

A BAD DAY FOR COUCHLIN.
Mrs. Andrew FOy BOmbarded by the
Lawyers for the Defense.

Outbreaks Among the Lawyers Fre-
quent and the Reoriminations Bitter
The Defense Succeeds in Gaping the
Cross-Examination of the Woman
With a Sensational Climax-Mrs.
Conklin Made Her Many Presents.
Chicago, Dec. 26.-This was a day Of
sensational developments and incidents
in the trial Of Daniel Coughlin. The
prisoner was self possessed and apparent
ly indifferent to it all, but the lawyers on
both sides and Mrs. Andrew F'oy, the per-
sons who participated, became nervously
excited. Outbreaks among the lawyers
were numerous and recrimi-
nations were iudulged in and
as bitterly resented. The de-
fense succeeded in bringing a
sensational climax to the cross-examina-
tion of Mrs. F'oy, and in presenting her to
the jury in far less favorable light than
she appeared when she left the witness
stand last week. She admitted receiving
money and substantial presents of cloth
ing, turkeys and carpet from Mrs. S. 7.
Conklin since she became acquainted with
her late last year.
TWO DAMAGING LETTERS.
Two letters which Mrs Foy admitted
had been written by her to w. S. Forest,
leading counsel for the defense at the
first trial, showed that the star witness
for the prosecution" as Attorney Wing
called her, had not been actuated solely
by a love of justice and desire to undo
great wrong in remaining silent while
the first trial was in progress. The
best that can be said for her, judging
from these compromising letters, was
that she wanted her husband to stop
drinking and mend his ways, and believed
that Coughlln and the lawyers could
bring about a change. Her letters con-
tanned threats of going to see the states
attorney unless she got some reward for
all have suffered" Her sufferings were
not dwelt upon much when she was ex-
amined by the prosecution.
NERvY TO THE LAST.
Still the woman's nerve and self-posses-
sion never deserted her. After recover
ing from the shock and surprise incident
to the quick plays made by the defense
with their trump cards, she turned upon
Attorney Wing and practically cross
examined him in regard to the conversa-
tion which took place in Forests Office
between them. The lawyer did not ex-
pect to be placed in such position, but
the witness at that time was in the
hands of the prosecution again. The
best point she made for the state
was to bring out the fact, undenied by
Attorney Wing, that he and Forest told
the woman to go home and give her hus-
band further trial or probation of six
months, which She did The attorneys
for the prosecution say they are satisfied
with the ending of Mrs. F'oy's cross ex-
animation and the defendants lawyers
said the woman's story would be rendered
worthless when all their impeaching tes-
timony was heard.

Rio Janeiro, Dec. 26.-The Italian naval
fleet will sail for home tomorrow.
The foreign ministers here to-day, met
and decided against recommending that
| the insurgents be accorded belligerent
rights.
No changes are apparent in the bonn
bardment of the city. The government
has established new fort on Governors
( island, recently captured from the insur-
gents, and is daily increasing the cannon
at other points.
That Admiral da Cana, whocommands
the insurgent vessels in the harbor is in
a critical position, is admitted, even by
his friends. 1t is believed that there win
be a decisive struggle Ia the near future.
TIRE NEW YORK SAILS FOR RIO.
New York, Dec. 26.-The cruiser New
| York sailed from the United States navy
| yard, in Brooklyn, this morning at 10:80
o'clock. AS she passed under the bridge
she was saluted by the people on the
bridge, waving hats and handkerchiefs.
She has been ordered 10 Rio de Janerio.

Washington, Dec. 26-Secretary Her
bert said to-day that he had issued no
order directing the double turreted mon
itor, Miantonomoh, to join the American
| fleet at Rio. 1t is likely, however, that
the big monitor will be sent on that duty.
She is now being prepared for sea with
all haste, and no denial is made at the
navy department of the report that Rio
will be her destination. The work of fit
ting out this vessel win be finished within
day or TWO.
FIVE VESSELS NOW AT RIO.
The New York's arrival at Rio will in
crease the force of United States vessels
there to five, all modern cruisers, a
greater number of United States vessels
assembled at one point to protect Ameri-
can interests than at any time since the
civil war The Charleston, the Newark
and the Detroit are already at Rio, and
the San Francisco is due there in less
than week. 1t will take the New York
about seventeen days to reach Rio. She
will probably make the voyage Of 5000
miles without stopping for coal. Rear
Admiral Benham, who will assume COM
mand of the United States naval forces at
Rio on his arrival, will retain his flag on
the San Francisco, but il is likely that on
the arrival of the New York she will be-
come the flagship Of the South Atlantic
station.
AN IMPROBABLE RUMoR.
Buenos Ayres, Dec. 26.-It is rumored
that MIR. Thomson, the United States
minister at Rio Janerio has recognized
the Insurgents as belligerents.

LABOR AND THE LAW.
General Master Workman Sovereign
States His Platform.

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. 26.-General
Master Workman Sovereign, of the
knights of Labor, to-day issued an official
statement, in which he outlines the course
he will pursue. He says the order must
put its principles into the statutes of the
country, and make them a part of
the practice of society. He continues ::
Everywhere is starvation and death,
while corporate greed and avaricious
money apply the arrogant lash with re-
lentless fury, and congress, like wooden
God, looks down in silent contempt on the
miseries Of the most patriotic and indus
trious people the world ever knew. With
these conditions confronting the people
everywhere, if we cannot permeate society
with healthy public opinion and the
tlon of our principles, we deserve defeat. :"
REVOLUTION IN SEVEN YEARS.
The general master workman further
says that he feels warranted in asserting
that civil liberty in this country will die
within the next seven years, unless the
knights of Labor or some like organiza-
tion comes to the rescue. He then shows
that according to the eleventh census the
increase of wealth is about $3.50, 900, 900
per year, while the interest charges ex-
ceed 81, 100000 per annum. "Do not mis-
take it for tariff delusions," he con-
cludes; 'it is the lack of public conf
dence; it is the jingle of shackles that is
always heard by a nation that forces
the transaction of business on
debt and credit and robs labor of the
fruits of its toll to pay the interest"

DON JAMS ARREST.
Vice President Stevenson Never
Alarmed By His Letters.

Washington, Dec. 26.-Vice President
Stevenson said to-day, regarding the ar
rest of Don Jan, that he was much sur
prised at the Importance attached to that
action. Mr.. Stevenson said he had re-
ceived communications from Don Jan
very frequently during the summer, some
of them threatening, but all of them very
clearly showing a weak and shifting
mind, and he decided that Don Jan was
harmless idiot. When Don Jan wrote
from Boston, Mr.. Stevenson's clerk
telegraphed the chief of police
in that city to look for
Don Jan at the address given by him, and
have steps taken to see if he was insane,
but,the Vice President had stated then
that the matter was unworthy of atten-
tion, and although he had received two or
three cards from Don Jan afterward, post
marked Washington, he had merely de-
stroyed them and felt no anxiety at all
about his presence in the capital.
Don Jan will come before the court to-
morrow for examination. 1t is not at all
clear what charge can be maintained
against him.

TOBACCO REFUND1Ne CASES.
All lReliquidations Ordered Suspended
by Secretary Hamlin.


Washington, Dec. 26.-Assistant Secre-
tary Hamlin to-day telegraphed Col
lector Kilbreth, at New York, to suspend
all reliquidations in tobacco refund cases
under all acts of congress and all re-
liquidations of other merchandise under
the act of March 3, 1888. This is the first
result of the New York customs house re-
fund investigation. The statements of re-
funds of excessive duties collected on to-
bacco at New York have been based upon
the interpretations of the tobacco pro-
vision of the act of 1888 by the courts in
New York state in the Blumlein case
four years ago.
The officials of the treasury depart
ment recently have had brought to their
attention that there is now pending be-
fore the supreme court of the United
States case involving similar questions
to those decided in the Blumlein case, and
they prefer to await decision of that
court before authorizing funds.
Assistant Secretary Hamlin is not yet
ready to make any statement of the ex-
tent to which the irregularities in prepar-
ing vouchers has proceeded, or to indicate
the amount of money which the govern
ment has lost by this means. His action
to-day, however, in suspending all refunds
is regarded as significant.

CLEVELAND OFF FOR A HUNT.
Secretaries Gresham and Carlisle Ac-
company Him Down the River.

company Him Down the River.
Washington, Doc. 26.-President CIeve-
land left Washington this morning for a
trip of forty-e1ght hours down the Poto-
mac, accompanied by Secretary Gresham,
Secretary Carlisle and Capt. Robley D.
Evans, naval secretary of the lighthouse
board.
Secretaries Gresham and Carlisle and
Capt. Evans met the President at the
white house about 10 o'clock and at 10 80
O'Clock they started for the Seventh
street wharf, the place of embarkation.
The two cabinet officers and Capt. Evans
left the Presidents Office and walked to
the carriage entrance through the public
part of the mansion, while the
President walked through the private
portion. Secretary Carlisle's carriage
was in waiting at the door and the four
were driven away rapidly. At the wharf,
the light house tender belonging to the
Baltimore station, was waiting for the
party, and after they had gone on board
no time was lost in starting down the
river. 1t is presumed the trip is pri-
marily for the purpose of duck shooting
and recreation, and incidentally for a
conference on public matters. Today is
cold and clustering, a decided change
from the Screen Christmas" weather of
yesterday, and the Potomac is rough and
choppy. il is ideal ducking weather.
AT O'Clock Private Secretary Thurber
said: 1.-The President has gone down the
river on little steamer with the Secre-
tary of State, the Secretary of the Treas
ury and Capt. Evans, of the navy. They
will be absent two or three days. The
trip is for the purpose of recreation, and
they will indulge in little duck shooting
If they find any ducks" Secretary Thur
Der said he did not know whether the
steamer was government vessel or not.

MISS YRARaIN's BODY FOUND.
It's Recovery Disproves the Story That
She Had Eloped.

Ithaca, N. Y, Dec. 26,-The body OF
Miss Yeargin, who was drowned in Ca.
yuga Lake several weeks ago, was washed
ashore last night near the depot at Nc
Kinneys station ON the Auburn branch OF
the Lehigh Valley road
Miss Yeargin went rowing with In.
structor Merriam, of Cornell College,
some six weeks ago, and failed to return.
They were undoubtedly drowned together
by the capsizing of their boat.
Great interest has been taken in the
case on account of the prominence Of the
young people. At one time a report was
circulated to the effect that Mr.. Merriam
and Miss Yeargin had been seen together
in New York city after the date of their
appearance from Ithaca. The finding of
Miss Yeargin's body disproves that story,
and no doubt remains but that they met
their death by the accidental overturn-
ing of their boat.
Miss Yeargin was one of the most prom
inent young women at Sage college. Her
home was at Laurens, S. Q.
DR.. Merriam's home was at Chatta-

MINERS APT TO STRIKE.
The Bosses Propose to Cut Wages
from 20 to 90 Cents Ton.


from 20 to 90 Cents a Ton.
Bellaire, o., Dec. ga strike. of
alarming proportions will be instituted by
1000 miners in this vicinity on Jan. / if
the operators do not revoke their decision
to cut wages on that date. The miners
affected are those employed along the
line of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
Some time ago the operators announced
that they were unable to pay 20 cents per
ton, as heretofore, and on Jan. l would re-
duce the price to 60 cents per
ton, the wages paid to the West
Virginia miners. The claim of the
bosses was that they could not compete
against West Virginia coal and pay 10
cents more per ton for mining, alleging
that under this arrangement West Vir-
ginia coal could be sold at the mouth of
the Ohio mines for less than the Ohio
operators themselves could sell their own
coal. On the other hand, the miners
claim that the bosses can make good
profit with wages at 10 cents per ton
They have decided to refuse to accept the
reduction, and unless some compromise is
agreed upon within few days, all will
lay down their tools on New Years day.
