The United States Leather company,
known as the Leather trust, on Mon
day shut down the 100 tanneries under
its control Not another hide will be
taken from its watts for sixty days.
During the sixty days that the 100 tan
neries are closed, more than $4,000
laborers, tanners, clerks and employees
generally will be without work. The
meeting at which the lookup was de-
cided on was held few days ago at
the office of the trust. As a result, an
order was sent to the tanneries on Sat-
urday last to put no more hides in the
watts and to take no more out after
Sunday, SO that the closedown took eff
feet at 6 p. N. Sunday. The concerns
shut up represent 80 per cent. of the
hemlock tanneries and 40 per cent. of
the union, the latter so-called because
they use a combination of hemlock and
oak bark in tanning. Few of the
strictly oak tanneries are included as
they are mostly out of the trust. Sew
eral of the rivals of the combination
have recently been cutting prices ex-
tensively, which is stated to be the
cause of the present curtailing of the
latter's operations. The action of the
trust in no way effects the Aliens Sons
tannery of this city, in fact most of the
plants interested are located in the
eastern states.

A London jeweler says that Lord @.
came into the shop one afternoon, &C
companied by a footman who bore a
small case Of green baiZe. Lord G. an
nounced that he wished to have a few
words with the jeweler IN private, and
was conducted up stairs. He carried
with him the green case.
'This case" said his lordship, when
the two men were together, contains
the jewels worn by Lady G. on high
days and holidays. At present her
ladyship is in the country, where she IS
likely to remain for several months.
Now what /, want you to do is to make
me an imitation set precisely similar to
the originals, only, of course, with false
stones. Lady G. is no judge Of such
things and will never discover the diff
ference. You can retain the originals,
and dispose of them among your custo-
mers, allowing me the difference in
value between the two sets. But /
must ask you to let me have the larger
part now, as have a pressing neces-
sity for money"
The peer took out a key, unlocked the
box, and produced the jewels. The jew
eler looked at them, and replied:
"My lord, it is the simplest thing in
the world to match these Jewels in the
way you suggest; but I must inform
your lordship that the difference in
value between the two sets would not
be a penny. The present jewels are
counterfeit. l purchased the originals
from Lady G. more than two years ago
and made her these limitations, which
are such excellent ones that am not at
all surprised at their deceiving such an
excellent judge Of jewels as your lord
ship"
There was no more to be said, and his
lordship withdrew.

mittee on city railways at the Hotel
Metropole today to tell something about
the earnings of the Manhattan Elevated
road In the course of the investigation
municipal ownership of roads was dis

of some words of wisdom. Among other
things he said: i,
II think it is not proper thing for
a government to take up. For the mu
nicipality to undertake such enterprises
would be move toward socialism and
would in practice be disastrous. A gov
eminent railroad is never as carefully
run, from a financial or a public point
of view, as private one. 1t has been
tried in Europe, where, particularly in
Germany, the railroads are used largely
for military purposes, 1t is necessary
in those countries to have a method of
massing the troops quickly. But [ do
not think the railroads have been finan-
cially successful. 1t is the same with
the European government telegraphs.

Fully aware of the significance of this
invitation, Said Pasha declined.
Abdul Hamid. it seems, believed that
Said Pasha was trying to influence the
tam suffering from weakness of mind
This so enraged Abdul Hamid that he
determined to get Said Pasha out of the
way. 1t may not have been the plan
to actually murder the latter, but nobody
doubts that if he had been enticed into
the Yildiz Chalet he would have at least
remai ned there close prisoner for
long time to come and some morning the
news of his suicide would possibly
have been circulated.

heat spontaneously among the stores.

son retired three years ago from the
banking firm of Lee, Higginson & Co.
with a large fortune. His wife is much
Younger than he and has been active in
society.
Two boxes Of half-ripe Strawberries
paved the way for the scandal Mr..
Higginson is cratic and stubborn. Last
spring he determined to secure the first
box of straw berries raised at Pride's
Crossing. His wife knew of his purpose
and mischievously plotted to thwart him.
She kept closer watch on the strawber-
~ market than her husband
One day the dignifed banker hurried
home and gleefully exhibited a basket of
trawberries beautifully tinted, but de-
ceptive as to their saccharine quality.
He boosted of his prize and his wife
permitted him to gloat over his apparent
success for few minutes. Then she
quietly drew from the hiding place two
boxes of strawberries, which she had Sc
cured in advance of her husband. He
tore the basket of fruit asunder and
trampled the contents under his feet.
But after the strawberry episode
her husband left her to amuse herself
as best she might.
She went to the horse show in New
York November 49, and spent
week gaily at the Waldorf and with
relatives among New York's fashiona BILE
set. Her constant companion was
James Wheatland Smith, who is the
great-grandson of a governor of Mas
sachusetts and a descendant of long
line of Puritan ancestors. He has an
Independent fortune, and while at Har-
ward college, from which he graduated
only few years ago, was suspended for
social scandal. Mrs. Higginson did
not return home to her husband and
four children and it transpired that she
and Mr.. Smith eloped and were at Ge-
noa, Italy. The 100000 represents her
wedding norton.
