TRANSPORTATION EXHIBIT,
One of the Interesting Sections at the
National Museum.

Curator j. Elfreth Watkins, who recently
returned from Chicago to resume his du-
ties at the National Museum, is now en-
gagged in arranging his section, the scope
of which has been extended to include all
chronological collections. Prof. Watkins,
who previous to the worlds fair was cura-
tor of the section of transportation and en-
gineering, has collected from the exposi-
ton and elsewhere numerous relics, mod
els. photographs, drawings and other his
torical and mechanical data, which are
being installed in the space of his former
section. and also in portions of the halls
adjoining.
The celebrated Henry electrical relics,
which up to this time have been in the
custody of the great scientists family and
elsewhere, have been added to the section,
From drawings furnished by Miss Mary A.
Henry, the inventors daughter there have
been made several working models of the
important apparatus not preserved, but
used by Henry in his earliest experiments.
All Of these are being grouped in cases to-
gether with other relics which illustrate
the developments of the telegraph, tele-
phone and other electric inventions. The
evolution of the steam engine, the locomo-
tive. the passenger and parlor car the
metal track the sailing vessel, the steam
ship. the fire engine, the typewriter, the
sewing machine and numerous other of the
worlds greatest inventions is to be Illus
trated in the same way.

A R0te War.

A rate war seems likely to result from
the recent boycott of the Seaboard Air Line
by the Southern Railway Association. The
association charged that the Seaboard was
not maintaining rates and proclaimed
boycott against it on March 1.
The Seabcard has now replied to the
boycott with sweeping cut In passenger
rates. The reduction amounts to nearly
plies to all rates along the line of the Sea-
board.
The announcement last night Of the cut
by the Seaboard Air Line to Atlanta caused
somewhat of a surprise to the officials OF
the other railroad companies that have
connections with Atlanta. Such Of the off,
Gals as would talk about the matter to-
day were, however, inclined to treat 1t
lightly, and asserted that it is but a plan
intended to force the Southern Railway
Association to revoke its order against the
Seaboard Air Line.

THE VANDERBILT AFFAIR.

Scandal.


Scandal.
1t is said that the break between Mr. and
Mrs w. K. Vanderbilt, which led to the
divorce granted yesterday, as announced
In The Star, came at the close of the
yachting trip on board the Valiant last
summer, during which, it is alleged, Mrs.
Vanderbilt was subjected to indignities in
the presence of their friends that made IL
impossible to longer defer action. 1t is
alleged that Mr.. Vanderbilt's relations
with Mile. Nellie Neustretter were openly
paraded by him with the purpose of fore
ing his wife to take cognizance of them.
Mr.. Vanderbilt's friends assert that prior
to this yachting trip his behavior toward
Mrs. Vanderbilt had always been consider
ate, and that he had before that time con-
Quoted himself in an exemplary manner.
They assert that he had no affection for
Mile. Neustretter and was in no sense fas-
-cinated by her.
Throughout the publications coupling the
name of Mr.. Vanderbilt with that of Mile.
Neustretter that gentleman has only once
made denial of any printed statements. de
protested against an allegation that he
had caused the young woman's servants to
be arrayed in the w. K. Vanderbilt livery.
The denial of this charge was vehement
and the explanation was made public that
the Neustretter livery. while similar to
that of Mr.. Vanderbilts servants, had
never been changed, and that at no time
mad the Two peen lQe0lical. lnouSn tNe
fact has been known for some months that
the Nanderbilts were agreed upon the gen.
eral proposition of a divorce, 1T was not
known by the public until the decree was
filed yesterday that proceedings had been
begun.
Mr.. Vanderbilt met Miss Smith, who
afterward became his wife, in 1878 when
he was twenty-nine years of age. She is
a member of an aristocratic southern Nm
lily. 1t is understood that the settlement
upon Mrs. Vanderbilt includes the marble
palace at Newport, the residence at SD
street and 5tn avenue and money and Sc
curities that will make her income S,OO,O00
a year.
Her sister is the former wife of Ferdi-
nand Yzagna, whose present wife returned
to the United States last month to secure @
divorce.
The woman in the case is Nellie Neu-
stretter, one of the most beautiful of the
queens of the Partisan demi- monde. MIR.
Vanderbilt is alleged to have given her all
his large winnings at the last Grand Prix
de Paris At present Mr.. Vanderbilt is
cruising board his yacht Valiant in the
Mediterranean with party of friends.
Mrs. Vanderbilt and her daughter have
made all their arrangements for sailing for
Europe having planned to occupy palatial
quarters at Paris.
CANNES, France, March 6.-Mr. William
K. Vanderbilt's steam yacht Valiant has
been lying at Nice for some time Both the

The Gridiron Club Declined.

Some time ago the Gridiron Club received
an invitation to a complimentary dinner to
be given in their honor by the Quaint Club
of New York at the Waldorf on March 20.
1t would. Of course, have been a most elab-
crate and enjoyable occasion. but, unfor-
tunately, the invitation had to be declined.
With the adjournment of Congress so many
members of the Gridiron Club have planned
to leave the city within the next fortnight
or made other arrangements that it was
seen but few could have attended the din
ner, and it was deemed best to forego the
pleasant honor, for the present at least.

Why Not

thin baby is delicate, and is not

Give the thin baby SCOTS
Emulsion of Cod-1iver Oil with
Hypophosphites.
SCOTS Emulsion is as easy a

effective in making thin babies
fat, and they like it.
If all the babies that have

FORCED TREASURY BALANCES.

The efforts to force favorable Treasury Da-
once in Washington at the end of the fiscal year
secm 70 have been as stupendous as they were
Amusing. No intelligent person was deceived In
the least degree, because everybody knew that as
soon rs the fatcful Both Of June should be passed
tho Treasury balance would change with dizzy
rapidity That II has done so a washington us
match published in The Tribune on SATURDAY
has clearly shown. Any person not iamliiar
with the financial methods Of this Administers
ton would have said. after scanning Treasury
daily statement for one Of the latter days OF June
that no Government in the world was ever so
economically conducted as Is the Government
of the United States at the present time. Take
the statement for June %. for example. The
expenditures were reported to be as follows:
Civil End Miscellaneous. nothing; war. nothing
Navy nothing: Indian Service. nothing; Interest
nothing: Pensions. N99.2os o.
Who ever before heard or dreamed OF such
economy?
Here was a total expenditure at the rate
Of less than S13,OO0,OOO year In the face
OF appropriations by Il Democratic Con-
cress calling for about SjO0,OOO.OOO year
The actual cost Of keeping the machn-
cry Of Government in full and efficient opera
tion-its Army and Navy. Its lighthouses ana
revenue cutters. its armies Of civil employees
its public surveys. and Of keeping faith with its
Indian wards rs we'll the holders OF Its in
tcrcst bearing obgaions-was nil, and the only
expenditure was paltry 100000 on account OF
pcnsions But there does not really seem to be
any need to heap facts about Democratic man
agcmcnt Of the National finances. That Is one or
thc matters in regard TO which the country gen
orally seems to have reached a sound conclusion
i'm the last two years.
