THEATRICAL MEN FAIL.
Abbey, SchoeffeI & Grau. the Fa-
NOUS New York Managers
Make an Assignment.

New York. May 23.-Aftcr an extend
ed and brilliant career as operate and
dramatic managers: after introducing TO
the American public the greatest actors
and singers of Europe and after pre-
Senting grand opera on a more splendid
scale than has ever before been attempted
in this country, Messrs. Abbey, Schoef-
fel and Grau, controlling the Metropoli-
tan Opera house and Abbey's theater III
New York and the fremont theater i'll
Boston, have found themselves in serious
financial difficulties and have made IN
assignment for the benefit of creditors.
Their operate ventures since 1891
nave given them magnificent profits, but
with two or three exceptions their
dramatic undertakings have been most
disastrous and the latter have net only
swallowed up all the great gains Of the
opera seasons. but have run the firm into
such debt that they find themselves as 4
firm and as individuals practically
stripped OF every dollar they owned.
When the assignees have made their
report it will probably be found that the
sum total owed by the firm does not
exceed 100000 and possibly may pre- We
to be a somewhat lesser sum Again st
this the firm have numerous asse;s
which. if carefully nursed and not forced
upon the market. may produce 5000, 900
or at least S150000.

TIME LIMIT THE SAME.
Railroads Make No Discrimination Be-
tween Chicago and St. Louis.

st. Louis, Mo-, May 23.-The conven-
ton transportation committee of the
Business Mems league, has authorized
Secretary Cox to issue an official denial
of statements which have been published
to the effect that the time limit on tick
cts to the Republican convention had
been fixed at five days. He was further
ordered to issue the following condensed
statement as to the actual limit an
nounced:
Western Passenger Association and
TranS-MiSSouri aSSOciation-Arrangemen
Identical for both Republican and Demo
cratic conventions. limit e4eVen days dat
Ing from June L to %.
Southwestern passenger committee lines
Tickets Will be sold on June and and
on the 18th and subsequent days good until
June %.
From Colorado points-Tickets will be
sold June u, 13 and II, final limit June %
or eleven days.
Joint Traffic northumberland limits
for the Republican and Democratic con-
VentionS. Maximum limit nine days.
will be sold June u, IS. Il and 10 good un
til June p for the Republican conventions.
These limits are identical with those fer
the Democratic convention at Chicago
careful summary of the printed in
structions issued by the different passenger
associations and committees shows prac-
tically the same number of days limit for
discrimination against st. Louis and state
ments to the contrary are injurious and
wrong. In one or two cases the limit is
two days longer for St Louis than for the
Democratic convention By order of the
committee. James Cox, Secretary.

coronation of the Gar, May 26, was for
mally proclaimed by the heralds to the
people at 8 o'clock this morning and the,

A strong detachment of cavalry sur
rounded the approaches to the kremlin

prayers and implore the Almighty one to
extend the favor of his blessing to the
reign Of his majesty to the maintenance
of peace and tranquility to the very great
glory of His hOlv name and to the
changing veal Of the empire.
The above proclamation was printed
on folio vallum. beautifully Illuminated
and adorned with the arms, monogram
and insignia of the Emperor. Copies
were scattered through the crowd and
there was wild scramble to obtain pos
session of them.
On May %, the day before the corona
ton, the ceremony of transferring the
regalia to the throne room of the Kremlin
will take place, and on the same day
their majesties will remove from the
Alexandrinsky palace to the grand
Kremlin palace.
\ special mass will be celebrated dur
ing the evening in all the churches. The

dral on the assumption. the most sacred
place in the Russian empire.

the imperial and foreign princes and spe-
cial ENJOYS and members of the diplo-
matte corps, etc, were present. The

ties lasted until very late.

AWaV.

Chicago, ILL.,, May 23.-Mrs. Eureka

editor, Wilbur f. Storey, died at her
home, 2011 Prairie avenue, Thursday
night She passed away while apparent
ly in a deep sleep, her end being painless.
She had been suffering from malaria,
contracted in Colorado, and aggravated
by a cold. The physicians thought she
was on the way to speedy recovery, but
she died suddenly, and they say heart
disease was the cause.
Mrs. Storey was born in Poughlleepsie,
n. Y, about fifty years ago. She was
the daughter of BENJAMIN Bissell. re-
tired merchant. A little romance was
connected with the naming of the daugh-
ter Eureka" but it died with Mrs.
Storey Mr.. Bissell died in 1865, and
shortly after the big fire i'll Chicago Mrs.
Risseli decided to come here with her
daughter. She had many friends in this
city and wished to be near them.
Miss Bissell was a charming woman,
and was noted figure i'll society. She
had great force Of character, and with
it amable manners which endeared her
to all who met her. Shortly after the
Bissells came here Miss Bissell met Will
bur Is. Storey, then at the zenith of his
fame. The famous editor and publisher
of the Chicago Times was charmed with
Miss Bisseil. The liking was mutual and
they were married December 3, 1873, at
the home of Mrs. Bissell.
From that time until his death Mrs.
Storey was the constant companion of
her husband. Some years after Mr..
Storey's death the Times was sold to a
syndicate for 100000. Joseph r. Dun
lop was the managing editor. In 1890
Mrs. Storey married him, but the mar
riage was not happy and Mrs. Dunlop

FOR IMPEACHMENT.
Congressman Howard Introduces
Resolution to Try PreSi-
dent Cleveland.

Washington. D. c., May 23.-Mr
Howard Pop, Ala.), the author of eff
Christ Came to Congress-" at the open
ing of the session of the House today
sprang Il sensation, but it was short
lived. The House with practical una
nImlty suppressed him.
AS soon as the journal had been read
Mr.. Howard, whose seat is in a remote
corner of the hall, arose dramatically
in the center aisle and tiourishing a pa
per IN his hand demanded to be heard
on the resolution which he sent to the
clerks desk. The resolution was as fol-
lows:
Il do impeach Grover Cleveland, Pres
ident of the United States, Of high
crimes and misdemeanors on the follow
ing grounds:
the sale, of bonds without authority of
law.
'Second-That he sold or aided in the
sale of bonds at less than their mar
ket value.
''Third-That he directed the misappro-
prlation of the proceeds of said bond
sales.
Fourth he directed the secre-
tary of the treasury to disregard the law
which makes United States notes and
treasury notes redeemable in coin.
"F1fth-That he has ignored and re-
AuSCu W nave Tie
law
''Sixth-That he has sent United States
troops into the state of Illinois without
authority of law and in violation of the
constitution.
"Seventh-That he has corrupted poll
tics through the interference of federal
efhceholders.
"Eighth-That he has used the appoint
ing power to influence legislation detri-
menta! to the welfare of the people,
therefore be it
Resolved by the House of Repre-
sentatives, That the committee on the
judiciary be directed to ascertain wheth-
er these charges are true, and if so to
report to the House such action by i'm
parchment or otherwise as shall be
proper in the premises and said commit
tee shall have authority to send for per-
sons and papers"
When the clerk ceased reading, Mr.
Howard, who had arisen to address the
House, was suddenly taken off the floor
by Mr.. Dingley, the floor leader of the
majority, who raised the question of
consideration against the resolution.
The question was promptly put by the
speaker and by a practically unanimous
vote the House declined to give Mr..
Howard hearing.
The House then settled down to dull
routine.
