CHIEF ARTHUR'S ANSWER.

He Admits the Existence of the Loco
motive Brotherhood's Boycott Pule.
TOLEDO, Ohio, May 15.-In the United
States Court, Chief Arthur of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
filed his answer to the petition of the
Ann Arbor Railroad Company in the
100000 damage suit. Mr.. Arthur
acknowledges that the Ann Arbor is a
railroad company; also that it is a
common carrier, and admits lots of
other things that have little if any
bearing on the case. The only thing
of Importance that he does admit
in the existence of the boycott rule of
the brotherhood, which is given in full.
Mr.. Arthul's fran lkness in acknowledge
ing the rule is supposed to be due to the
fact that his attorneys have found out
that the rule pertains to the brother
hood and not Mr.. Arthur. The answer
says that on the injunctions of the
court mentioned in the petition he
knows nothing, as he was not served.
Each and every allegation in the petit
on is. denied and Mr.. Arthur asks that
the be dismissed with his costs

he becomes enamOred, seemingly, Of
verbal forms and niceties, and uses
words to the detriment of ideas. For
example, a student during an examina-
ton was required to write an essay
upon the horse, which he did in the
following summary fashion: The

memoir of Onoocool Chunder Mooler
jee, Judge of the high court of India,
published by his nephew shortly after
the death of his uncle. We can select
only few gems here to show the
character and style of this remarkable
literary production. The learned judge
was stricken with illness while on the
bench and his biographer says: "All
the well-knOwn doctors of Calcutta did
what they could with their puissance
and knack of medical knowledge, but
it proved after all as if to milk the
ram. His wife and children had not

is, the way his eulogist sums UP that
side of his character. The Hon'ble
Moo1eriee did bleed freely, but he was
not a leviathan on the ocean Of liberia
lily: the mode of assignment of his
charities was to such men as we truly
wish and recommend and eXsuscitate
enthusiastically. He used to give
monthly to many relics who had no
hobbaboy-hoy even to support them
and had no other source of sustenance
left to them by their consOrt."

MYSTERY OF THE YELLED
MODEL.
\ Woman of Magnificent Figure
Whose Name Was Never Learned.

A woman OF MaSmncent Figure
Whose Name Was Never Learned.
For a number of years the most
highly priced model in the National
Academy classes in New York was d
young woman known only as The
Yelled Model" says the Washington
Post. No one ever saw her face. She
was heavily yelled when she applied for
and secured employment to pose for
the class. The artists engaged as III
structors for the school requested her
to uncover her face. She refused.
Il am ready to pose nude" she said,
''but I must remain unknown. If you
are willing to employ me for the figure
only I shall be glad of the position,
but the pupils must paint and draw
some other head than mine"
The artists demured to this eXtraOd-
mary proposition. But when the mys-
ferrous stranger requested the privilege
of standing before them in a state of
nature they were SO delighted with the
symmetry of hr figure and the eXqui-
site purity Of her flesh that an engage
lleul WIS ut el1SClSu. Lie N0lleu
model posed at the academy for several
winters without disclosing her identity
The heavy draperY wound around
her head was never removed either on
the street OF on the studio platform.
Those who painted from her could get
an occasional CLEAN of jet black eyes
shining through the veil. The more
curious of the pupils at first tried to
follow her home at night to ascertain
her name and where she lived. But
one night when they tracked her near
~ to her home she suddenly stopped
and said quietly. Gentlemen, it is
my secret To make it known would
cause me great grief and modification.
Let it be as it is. I appeal to your
honor" After that the mystery Of the
yelled model was respected and she
came to the studio and left it unmOlest-
ed. Nobody knew her name, where
she lived or anything about her. At
the end of the week she received her
money and departed silently to turn up
on ime next Monday evening. One
night two years ago she faded into
the darkness as usual at IL O'Clock.
She was never seen never heard of
again. She utterly disappeared, and
from that day until now the mystery
of the yelled model has never been
revealed.

CHICAGO, May 15.-TheTe was a lively in
terest and a nervous feeling on the Board
OF Trade In the wheat pit during the morn
ing The July price started 763. c, and after
break to 7ot0 sc rallied to IUlsc, and at
once dropped back to 1880. September
sold 7915c to 7Sjsc to 1890, and back to
lJ54c. The market opened on slight down
turn, and the selling pressure Increased
quickly. When the decline was checked
the rally was on the very bullish
private cables. Hamburg cables said
root and TODD crops ruined and
rye and wheat must be a total loss unless
the drouth ends quickly. London sends
bullish cables about the Russian crop, and
Paris reported the outlook little improved.
The bulge was on this news and on the
theory that the visible supply would de-
crease 2,O0n,O0U. When the Duluth figures
were posted showing a decrease there of
Z, lSG, 900 in store and afioat the trade got
very built h. The market went off sharply
before the close and last prices were The
lowest of the day at 751sc for July and 1874
@7o1sc for september.
There was no sharp action in the corn
market. The market dropped slightly
lower with the early break in wheat and
recovered on pretty good buying before
midday. At / O'Clock prices were little
changei from the Saturday closing July
corn sold 1890 off to 1875 C and up to 433I( 90
sol 1880 and 4411sc and up to 4455c holding
later at 443894419c. Sales of May, 1894,
corn were reported at 45c. The May price
improved from 1880 to 43c, ruling only %
(924c under July at one time.
There was little break in provisions on
the early market. Pork showed drop of
10 to 20 cents from Saturday figures at
S20.25 July and 5000 September. Lard
lost 1919 TO zoe at S1O.521a and SlO. 70 for the
same months. Ribs sold down to 50 90 July
and $1,000 September, loss of 15c When
other markets hardened there was some
rally in provisions. When the recovery got
under way some houses with stop orders
on short sales had to buy for protection.
This Slartei sharp advance. On the bulge
pork went 10 to 15c over the Saturday clos
ing, with July at S2J.45, September $50 Co.
Lard went to Sl0,67I July, $1l September
Ribs advanced to $l0l5 and sl0..5 same
months The strength was we'll maintained
and at the close July and September prices
were; Fork S2O. 30 and go. 5s15 lara, $40 Is

DYN ANTE IN VALENCIA,

MADRID, May 15.-Great consterna-

parently intended to strike terror in
the aristocratic families in that CITY.
A dynamite cartride was exploded at
the door of the Colegio Loreto, which
gives entrance to school attended bv
young ladies belonging to tie most
select families of Valencia and vi, initv.
The door was shattered by the explo-

MUST TAKE ANOTHER TACK.
Cleveland Gains No Time by His Order
to Office Seekers.

Washington, May 12.-Although the
the number of his callers, since a con-
gresham cannot carry his constituents
in with him to the presidents presence,
it has done but little else.
The congressman and senators cOntin-
lie to come as numerous as ever, and
they occupy just as much time as they
did when they brought a crowd with
them. There being comparatively few
of them, each member of congress feels
entitled to prolong his conversation with
the president so that so far as time
is concerned, they consume fully as
much as ever.
There are those among the daily call
ers at the white house who would not
be surprised to witness a radical change
in the next year or two in the method of
distributing the federal patronage.
Briefly stated, the change would mean
the curtailment, if not the complete abol
ishment of active and persistent efforts
by congressman in the distribution OF
patronage. The necessity for a change
in the present system is said to lie in
the fat that Of late years the work of
congress as a legislative body is serious
ly interfered with by the absence of
members from the daily sessions, neceS-
STATED by the attention which they must
give to the task of pressing the constit-
uentS' demands for patronage in the
various departments.
Another reason put forward for the
change is the allegation that in many
states eligibility for election to congress
has come to be gagged by a mans abili-
ty to get appointments for his constit-
uentS, and to sway power with the
administration. 1t is alleged that the
larger part of the average congressman S
daily Legislative" duties consists in
making the rounds of the departments
in behalf Of his constituents, his seat in
the legislative body to which he was
elected remaining vacant in the mean
while.
Mr. Cleveland has been keenly i'm
pressed with this situation, which has
been brought wildly to his attention
during the past wo months. Many of
the congressman themselves would wei
come a change. They feel that they are
held responsible for every appointment
and while realizing that they do not
and ought not to control everyone, they
are made to suffer for the non control
by their disappointed constituents.

LEARNING TO TALK ENGLISH

English AS She Is Spoke" which. as
is well known, is a free translation Of
the real title, which is, THE New Guide
to Portuguese and English The pc
culiarity of the book, according to the
San Francisco Chronicle, was due
chiefly to the fact that its author had
produced a book of French collOquial
dialogues, which, with the aid of die
tionary, he put word by word into
English, though he knew literally moth
ing of French. Necessarily he carries
over bodily idiom after idiom, and as
his knowledge of English was scarcely
greater than his knowledge of French,
the tumble and confusion that resulted
may be easily imagined. For example,
one of his familiar phrases is: 1T

and another: He burns oneself the

recognize at once as literal TRANSACTIONS

All CalifoInians are familiar with
Chinese English, and of late have been
much acquainted with the attempts of
the Japanese to master the intriCacies
of English, some of which, by the way,
are very amusing. The Japanese, it
is to be noted, are not uniformly polite
letter-writers, the kitchen boy who de-
sires leave of absence or an increase
in his wages approaching the subject
with lavishness of compliment and
an extent of circlmlocution which
would do honor to a trained diplo-
matist.
India, however, if we may judge
from a number of recent publications
on the subject of bobu English, as it
is commonly known, will have to be
awarded the palm for queer English.
