Woman Blackmair. a Lord.

LONDON, Nov. 12-At the Westminster
Police Court to-day woman who gave
her name as Florence Stansfield and an adj
dress in the st. Johns Wood district of
London, was arraigned on a charge of
Matchmaking Earl Darlington, joint hered-
itary lord great chamberlain of England.
She is a fine-looking woman of distin-
guished manners. The proceedings devel-
oped the fact that she had sent letters
to Lord Darlington demanding money. But
in court to-day her counsel apologized on
her behalf to Lord Darlington and ex-
planned that his client had written the let
ters under mistake as to identity, Lord
Darlington was not the man who had rep
resented himself to her as being that
nobleman. Lord Darlington denied ever
having seen her until to-day. The Scot
land Yard officer who arrested her deposed
that she told him she had known a man
for many years who went under the name
of Lloyd and whom she had all along be-
lieved was Earl Darlington The mags-
trate declined to allow the case to be with
drawn and committed the prisoner for
trial at the Criminal Court, Old Bailey.

unanimously to resume the strike through
out the Wilmington-Bra district
The decision affects the miners at Carbon
Hill. Diamond and Coal City, and post
except where the full scale is paid The
miners at several mines have not ratified
the action of the meeting, but everything
indicates a general suspension pending an
effort to secure arbitration of ali existing
differences in accordance with the action of
the Streator convention. The miners will
contend for the gross weight scale as
adopted at Springfield. They will ignore the
proposition offered by the operators based
on a screen scale. 1t is the purpose to abol-
ish the whole system as speedily as pos
sible, even at sacrifice in the price per
ton. if necessary.

Fire-Other State News.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Nov. 12.-Grand Ex-
allied Ruler Meade D. Detwiler this evening
suspended the Marion Qnd.) Lodge of Elks
and forwarded the paper to District
Deputy Armstrong, of that State, authoriz-
ing him to secure the charter, parapher-
MALTA and lodge effects. This action was
due to the alleged violation of the laws of
the order in the method of initiating Rob-
ert Fitzsimmons. The Associated Press
representative called on Mr.. Detwiler and
he declined to discuss the affair, merely
stating that he had to-day received the re-
port Of the district deputy for the State of
Indiana in the matter of Robert Fitzsim-
mons's recent initiation by Marion Lodge,
No. 1876, and that after a careful examina-
ton Of the same it clearly appears that the
lodge not only willfully and fiagrantly vio-
lated the long-eStablished laws applicable
to the admission of candidates into the or
der, but also the positive instructions of the
district deputy notifying the officers of the
lodge that the proposed initiation was con-
trary to law. FitzsimmonS was initiated
by the Marion lodge last month, while the
pugilists company was playing an engage
ment at Marion.

Efforts VIII BE Made to Prevent An
other Outbreak of yellow Fever.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12-Now that the
yellow fever epidemic in this country has
been brought practically to an end by the
appearance of cold weather, theMarine Hos
pital Service is preparing to begin a post
epidemic crusade for the purpose of pre-
venting a recurrence Of the contagion next
year. The officials of the bureau will CO.
operate with the health authorities of the
various States affected in conducting a
thorough disinfection of the districts in
which the fever gained a foothold. The
cleansing of all infected cities will be urged
and each house in which there was case
of fever will be thoroughly fumigated. 1t is
believed that by pursuing this course the
country can be protected against another
yellow fever epidemic in 1898.

CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind, Nov. r.
When the experts were here examining the
books of ex-County Treasurer Hutton the
present treasurer, William Johnson, asked
the County Commissioners to employ the
experts to continue their examination up to
the present time and make the fall settle
ment between himself and the county audi
tor. Mr. JohnSon'S request was granted and
to-day the experts reported that there was
$1.012,2O due the county from Mr.. Johnson,
principally on account of what is known as
dropped taxes, the system of bookkeeping
heretofore in vogue here being very lax as
relating to the payment of such taxes. The
reason that Mr.. Johnson asked for this in
vestigation was from the fact that his bank
account was long" 1t is probable that the
experts will establish a system of book
keeping that will obviate all such errors in
the future.
