Bogus American Vanderbilt.

NEW YORK, March 22-Banker Endorf
young man who is wanted in a number of
European cities. His name is Kerr, and
his operations We're on q large scale and
uniformly successful. About three months
ago banker Endorff, one of the solid men
Of the Austrian capital met at his club
young and handsome American who was
introduced to him as Mr. Armstrong, of
chicago. The two men soon became warm
friends Then Mr.. Armstrong told the
banker that he was in reality Edward
Vanderbilt, a nephew of William H, and
that he was travelling incognito to avoid
notoriety Mr. Endorff was charmed, and
invited the young Croesus to his home
The invitation was accepted. Mr.. Wander
bilt went to the bankers house, and at
once seemed to fall violently In love with
Freda, his beautiful daughter Papa En-
dorn rubbed his hands in glee when he
saw evidence of the young mans passion
which seemed to be reciprocated. But his
JOY lasted only short time. Three weeks
ago MIR. Vanderbilt and Freda fled from
Mr.. Endorff's home, taking the equivalent
OF $4,000 in hard cash with them. The girl
had yielded to her lovers solicitation and
cast her lot with him without going
Vienna told Mr.. Endorff that Vanderbilt's
real name was Kerr, and that he was a
confidence man. No trace of the swindler
was found in the city and it is supposed
that he came to this country at once
However that may be. the banker is in
New York in hope of finding some clew to
his late guest.

NOTED FORGER CONVICTED.
StOnewall j. De France Found Guilty by
Kalamazoo Jury.

KALAMAZOO. Mich, March 22.-Stone-
wall j. De France, of Detroit, was convict
ed this noon of forgery The jury was out
but short time. On Nov. %, 1891 a forged
draft of $12,5OO was presented at the First
National Bank in this city by Lewis For
rest, representing himself about to buy a
farm, and he obtained 5000. Stonewall J.
De France under arrest at Detroit in the
fall of 1893, answered to Forests descrip-
ton, and he was brought here and charged
with being Forrest and having committed
the crime. Bank officers and others who
were brought into contact with Forrest
identified De france as the man, although
Forrest was disguised with a mustache and
spectacles. The defense attempted to prove
an alibi. They claimed that De France at
tended church in Detroit at the same hour
that Forrest attended church here. They
introduced contracts made between De
France and certain Galvins on Nov a.
1891, at the same time that Forrest was Sc
curing his 5000 in this city. The prosecu-
ton proved by a Detroit lawyer that he
was hired by De France to make these
contracts, and executed them in January
1894. while De France was III Kalamazoo
jail. De France is accused of similar
crimes in Minneapolis and elsewhere, and
officers have been waiting to rearrest him
in case of his acquittal. He has not yet
been sentenced.

WASHINGTON, March 22.-The bill for
the purchase of site for the new Govern
ment Printing Office consumed nearly the
whole morning hour. and, much to the sur
prise of nearly everybody, an amendment
providing for the purchase of what is
known as the Malone Site was passed.
Notice for a motion to reconsider the vote
was given, however, and at some future
time the subject will be reopened. The Nc
Garrahan bill. which was TO have been
taken up to-day, went over until Monday.
The bill for the examination of the Russian
thistle shared a like fate. a resolution Of
fered by Senator Hoar expressing regret at
the death OF Kossuth was adopted.
Mr.. Sherman precipitated a discussion in
the nature of free-slver debate by the
introduction of resolution directing the
committee judiciary TO examine and re-
port whether the stimulation of the coins

thOriZed by law, is made criminal by the

MAY PLEAD HIS OWN CASE.
Colonel BrecI>inridge Not Giving His
Attorneys u Good show.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, March 22.-There is some
trouble between Representative w. c. p.
Breckenridge and his counsel in the Cele-
brated damage suit. 1t is not serious trou-
BILE, but it is sufficient to embarrass the
defense. The Kentucky Congressman thinks
he is about the best lawyer there is in
this case, and he insists on conducting the
line Of defense himself. He has seldom
conferred with any one of his counsel as to
the general policy to be pursued, or the adj
mission or omission of testimony. He d.
reefs everything himself, in spite of the
fact that Major Butterworth, Colonel
Thompson and other attorneys for the de-
Tense have reminded him that the lawyer
who pleads his own case has a fool for
a client. Colonel Thompson has been pre-
pairing to make elaborate argument TO
the jury, but he has been given to under
stand, SO 1t is said, that Colonel Brock
inridge will himself occupy the time. One
or two of the attorneys for the defense
intimate that all of the attorneys on mis-
side have been overshadowed in legal pro-
cedure by the arbitrary action of the de-
PENDANT himself and good feeling does not
prevail on the Breckenridge side of the
table at the Judiciary Building.

PRIEST TURNS PROTESTANT.
Father A. Lambert Leaves the Roman
Catholic Church.

NEW YORK, March 22.-It is announced
that Father \. Lambert. one of the leading
missionaries OF the Redemptorist Order OF
the Roman Catholic Church. has renowned
the priesthood and withdrawn from the
church. He has addressed to the superior
general OF the order in Rome a letter TO
this effect. stating that his action was die
tated by the voice OF conscience.
When the announcement was first made
that Father y. Lambert had become a
erotcstant il was thought by many that
the priest was the same who had a warm
discussion with Colonel Ingersoll and be-
came involved in a dispute with Bishop
McQuade Of Rochester. This is a wrong
impression, how as the name OF the
priest who took part in the controversies

Before adjournment attorney Carlisle
gave notice that there would be objections
to some other dispositions, and suggested
that arguments should be heard Saturday.
Judge Wilson added that some of the ques-
lions would make 1t necessary to refer to
the dispositions themselves, so that the
presence OF the jury would not be proper.
With the understanding that If Mr.. Butter
worth Is able to attend, the arguments will

There has not been an establishment
opened in Seattle Tor many years which
has been received with such general salts
faction and appreciation as has been ac-
corded the Pacific Market House, sos
Front street. which entered the business
field yesterday. Seattle has long needed
irst-ciass market, and in the Pacific
Market House has secured one of the
finest markets on the Coast. Yesterday
the place was thronged with buyers, and
the very large display of meats was almost
entirely cut up and sold before night.
This market is operated by the Pacific
Meat Company, the largest handlers of
meats in the Northwest. The company
owns the extensive cold storage plant at
Meeker's and keeps its meats in cold stor-
age at all seasons of the year. In the
Pacific Market House the very best quail
ties of meat are sold. The fittings are
such that meats are handled with the ut
most cleanliness. All the serving tables
are of marble and the most improved
reirigeraiors arc provided. Besides the
meat stalls, large spaces are devoted to
fruits and vegetables, TO butter. cheese and
eggs, to fish and canned goods. In fact.
the Pacific Market House is fully
equipped and complete market which is a
credit to the city. The manager, Mr. T.
Papworth. has spared no pains TO open
market worthy of Seattle and has sue
ceeded admirably. If you wish to see a
modern market it will nay you to inspect
the Pacific Market House.

First One in Seattle To BE Exhibited At
Madrona.

Madrona.
Some two months ago a contract was
lei by the management OF the James Street
line for an electric fountain at MadroHa
park with view of adding TO this already
romantic resort feature that would be
in full harmony with the natural beauties
of that place. The work was completed
yesterday and working test made last
night. with a result that exceeded the
highest hopes of the promoters. Il is the
intention TO give an exhibition every night
during July and August
The fountain is supplied by stream of
water from aspiring which furnishes q large
volume OF clear and sparkling water. max
ing 1t susceptible OF brilliant coioring and
Kaleidoscope effects under the many pow
erful electric lights. In addition 10 this.
the park has been provided with arc lights,
which will burn at intervals when the
fountain IS darkeBed 10 permit the operat-
ors to change colors. Considering the fact
that Madrona park is so situated as TO
shield IL from cold night winds should
make this the popular resort for all de-
string to spend pleasant evening, especi-
ally since the expense is limited to the car
fare. The park Is the exclusive property of
the company, and so Conducted that every
one may ieel at home and welcome
Nothing is sold or permitted to be sold
upon the park grounds. The company is
now constructing, under the supervision
of Prof. Leo Daft, search light of 10000
candle power, beng twice as powerful as
the one exhibited on the United States
steamship Baltimore July L. 1892. This
will be completed and operated on the
evening OF the Fourth of July. 1t will be
so powerful as to light up all the opposite
shore OF Lake Washington bright as day,
and will be more wonderful than any
electric exhibition ever given in Seattle.
