certainly be the marriage of the year not even excepting the recent Gould nuptials-and it will be strictly an American affair, notwithstanding the fact that the brides mother is worth s20, 900, ,0o0 and that the groom is a young Croesus. The bride-to-be has two uncles worth $50, ,000, 900 apiece and half a dozen worth $2O, GOO, 900 each. But as he is to wed plain American citizen nobody has paid much attention to the affair Had Miss Adele Sloane given herself to a penniless grandee from the other side she would no doubt be fa- nous by this tine
 The engagement of Miss Sloane to James A. Burden, IT,, was announced last February. The wedding is to take place at Lenox, Mass The affair will be solemnized ln Trinity, the exquisite church of which Rev Dr William Gros- venor is so proud, and that clergyman will officiate.
 But before entering into that part of the matter, it is well to observe that this is to be strictly Vanderbilt occa- sion. Miss Sloane, as has been re- marked time and again, is the second of the grandchildren of the late W. H. Vanderbilt to wed. The young lady is the daughter of William D. Sloan, who married daughter of the late million aire and got fifteen million dollars by the performance. Mir. Sloane himself is worth many millions in his own right, however. This is his daughters third season "out." She has been the center of whirl of gayeties for weeks at the court, the superb Sloane country seat at Benox. Then she is entertained, too, at Wyndhurst, the house of MT. John Sloane, her multi-mi11ionaire

usual ability, as rANNANY SPHINX NOW the metropolis is well aware Tammany under him will have future fully as picturesque as it's past. It is no secret that the reform element, always in dread of the tiger, views the aseendaney of Smyth and his policy with more alarm than any devel- epment has yet oceasioned.
 Tammany, at least" said the new grand sachem, in reply to questions as to the future of the great organization, ecan now offer practical test of the truth of the chief charge brought against it. You know the organization has been pronounced a mere combina- tion of off1ceholders and patronage seekers, the strength of which was wholly due to control over the public treasury We'll, Tammany is out of office, and certainly owes nothing to the powers that be. If the organiza- tion holds it's own, our friends, the ene- my, must find new reason for the ex- istenee of Tammany strength"
 Do you expect Tammany to return to power very soon?"
 Really, predictions are so easy to make and are nothing but one's opin- ions stated as facts. Tammany's ob- ject is to be as much in touch with the people as possible-the popular mouth piece. If Tammany has made mis- takes, let it take the consequences. If, on the contrary, the organization makes itself recognized as an instru- ment of popular government, if it gives welcome to all worthy elements and comes to be recognized as power for good, do not see how it is possible for Tammany to fail to return to power"
 What do Tammany men think of the reform government?"
 'sI can't speak for all of them. Mir. Strong, himself, is, think, looked upon as a very fair-minded man. He may have made mistakes, but then it is human to err. I think the great trouble with the element now in pos session of the city government is it's in- evitable tendency to get above the people. The class called reformers forget in their eagerness to put ex- periments into operation that they must get the peoples indorsement first. Now, the people usually are con- servative. Our reforming friends seem to think for soEle reason or other that they are above the people--better than the people. They are thus apt to get out of sympathy with their constit- uents."

Cleveland is said to have given a qualified consent to think the matter over, but in any event he will not be here until the spring of next year. But there can De no doubt that the presidents brother is rising man in the Presby- serian church. His prominence as a aheologian led to his election to the Presbyterian general assembly, and lis recent record there has confirmed 1he favorable impression already

formed of his character and ability. Men do not win fame in the church at a bound, and Mir. Cleveland has un- doubtedly been overshadowed by his brother Grover. Yet in recent years he has made a decided stir in the church and has been invited to numer- ous pulpits all over the country. Offers of this kind, however, the pastor in- variably declines, being of decidedly retiring nature, and little likely to care for a sensational fame. 1t will occasion rejoicing to the Presbyterians of New York, however, to learn that he will soon be among their metropolitan pas tors. It was William Cleveland, by the way, and not Grover, who achieved some note in early youth by writing fanciful tales for the magazines, some of which attracted attention, although written anonymously. The tales were Poe-like in some respects, dealing with dragons among the stars that fed on the tears of the Nautilus, and similar tancies But, in spite of all indications, the one brother became president and the other d pastor.

 James 4. Burden, Jr., will have a small country establishment near Cliveden, where William Waldorf Astor lives. Both of these young people are experts in country amusements and devoted to fox hunting. They have letters of introduction to all the great personages of England, and both look forward with interest to their new home there Miss Sloane will be missed by the proteges she has in New York. She has been very active in the newsboys' charities, and is known as the tenderest-hearted belle in the Three Hundred and Nine ty-nine Many anecdotes Illustrating this fact are current in New York. For example, about a year ago, ragged bootblacl1 took refuge from rainstorm underneath the door of her fathers house. Miss Sloane saw him wet through and shivering, and insist ed that he be brought inside and fed, that he be given fine dry clothes. When this was done the little chap in- sisted upon paying for his entertain ment by blacl1ing all the boots in the house. That task was larger one than he dreamed of, and it was impos- sible for him to undertake it, but he was brought into the parlor and al- lowed to black Mr. Burdens boots, and Miss Sloane, heiress to millions, played the piano for him while he didaso

No TELLING HOW TWILL REsULE,
Hard Work on Both sides of the Dis
pensnry Legislation,

Mr.. W. w. Starr of the Savannah
Brewing Company, who has been watch
ing things in Atlanta for several days,
returned to the city yesterday morning.
He will probably go to Atlanta again in
a few days.
Mr.. Starr says the report with regard
TO any organized effort on the part Of the
Savannah liquor dealers to raise a fund
TO use in lighting the dispensary legisla-
ton is incorrect.
Il do not mean to say that no effort
will be made to defeat it, he said, but
you will remember the accusation was
made year ago that we had raised S5O,-
600 for the same sort of a purpose when
not one cent had been subscribed The
prohibiuOnists are making a very des-
perate fight to get their bill through
and there is no telling yet just what
course the matter is liable to take.
Chatham county pays S30U0O every
year TO the educational fund of the state
from its revenue on the liquor business
but outside of that the passage of such
bill would be destructive to property
and business interests in every city in
the state. l heard man say in Atlanta
yesterday that he would allow his Drop-
erty TO be taken at fair valuation now,
and after the passage of such bill if
nc IS passed, he would be willing 10 sell
1t out at reduction of - per cent"
While Mr.. Starr did not say so. there
VIII no doubt be some pretty hard fight
ing on both sides. There are IS dry and
81 wet counties in the state, and of course
of their citizens under the local option
law. This, il would appear, might put
the representatives Of those counties TO
thinking if they have future aspirations.
On the other hand, many Of these repre-
sentatiVes are firm believers IN the local
option law, and the regulation of the
liquor traffic by each community.
The proposed law provides, generally
and briefly, that there shall be only one
place in each county where liquors of
any kind can be sold. that nothing les s
than pint can be sold at a time. thar
IL cannot be drunk az the dispensary, and
that ii cannot be made or sold for bev-
erage purposes II will be seen at once
that ii would do away with the bar fea-
lures at all the clubs. The results that
are talked of are well known. They are
such as increased property taxation, va
cant stores blind tigers, wherever they
can find lairs, and necessarily. an in
creased police supervision. The general
sentiment of the business. people in all
the large cities is against this legisi;.-
ton. They say that the local option law
is a sufficient safeguard against all such
evils as are complained CT, and that the
rural sections should not attempt to leg
islate for the cities.

Young Allen, Aims Captain Rivers"
Out of Trouble.

E. G. Allen. the young fellow with a
vivid imagination and hazy ideas as to
property distinction who has been re-
flecting on the error of his way at the
police barracks for the last several days,
is out of trouble, for the present at
least
Allen left for his home in Newark, N
j., last night In company with his father.
I,cz's Il. l.. Allen. whose arrival in the
city was mentioned in yesterdays Morn
ing News. Mr. Allen had no difficulty
in arranging matters with Mr.. Mayer, the
Atlanta man who had Allen arrested
here for stealing a bicycle from him, as
Mr.. Mayer represented the other At
anita parties who suffered by their ac-
quaintance with young Allen.
There was no disposition to prosecute
the young man, as he was regarded sim
ply as the tool Of Merritt. an older man,
and evidently an experienced crook into
whose clutches ne fell after leaving home
for a southern trip only few weeks
ago
Aliens arrest here may prove the big
gest piece of luck that ever happened TO
him. He appeared to be sensible Of the
great mistake he had made. Merritt ap-
pears to have escaped the officers in New
York, as no word has been received here
of his arrest.

4 Number of New Enterprises Re-
ported During the Week.

Baltimore, Oct. 31.-The Manufacturers
Record reports for the week that while
the general business and industrial pro-
gress of the south continues to make a
good showing, the Atlanta exposition is
for the time being the center of all in

cities.
Among the enterprises reported for the
week were a line of steamers to be es-
