sense Of what lay behind than what
was actually visible. There was no
attempt at display ON the part of the
players. It was a quiet. silent bust
ness-like struggle, with the sombre
self-restraint characteristic Of a chess
match under ordinary circumstances.
Whenever the division bell of the
house rang there was stampede and
the players were left alone and undis-
turbed. At no time was the crowd
overwhelming, but everybody acted
sans gene, and pipes, cigars, and oc-
casionally long tumblers, though moth
ing stronger than soda and milk, were
brought to the players.
Opposite each Of the champions sat
a gloomy, silent man, like the crou-
pier of continental gambling table
He was the automaton, whose duty
1t was to make the moves cabled from
the United States. The rapidity with
which these were sent was the subject
of general remark, and Mr.. Plunkett
said that his game went along as rap
idly and easily as if he had his oppo-
nent in front of him instead Of on the
other side Of the Atlantic. The specta :
tors decorously whispered their opin-
ions as to the varying phases of the
games and were in no sense q disturb

be to reduce the buying power of the
gold dollar 100 per cent. And now here
comes our venerable and scholastic
contemporary with the assertion that
Hennepin's ratio of something or other
has been reduced over 100 per cent in
one year, with something of a ratio
left.
This clearly calls both for an apology
to the colonel and for the formation of
a new hypothesis to take the place Of
the one with a punctured tire. After
much bordering on this interesting
problem We have arrived at the conclu-
sion that it is all due to mental for
nation, malformation, we might say,
similar to color blindness and stutter
ing; defects from birth. This har-
monies with other eccentricities Of all
these several persons, such as their
insistence that all that is needed to
make everybody healthy, wealthy and
wise is to clap smart tax on every
body, which, rather inconsistency to us,
but tremendously to themselves, they
insist is not a tax, and if 1T is one the
foreigner pays it anyway. Now we
submit in all candor that men whose
mental works turn out such notions as
those are perfectly capable of honestly
asserting and believing that you can
reduce anything 100 per cent and have
some of it left, or even that reduction
Of 800 per cent may be made without
entire obliteration. We submit the case
to psychologists as worth their investi-
cation, and it will not be without in
terest to alienists. Meanwhile. will the
colonel please accept our apology.

BARONESS GETS BACK.

Alleged Victim of Won Arnold Re-
turns to Montreal.
MONTREAL, May S1-At 7 o'clock
tonight a tall and rather handsome wo-
man stepped from the Quebec train.
She was the woman who has come into
such prominence as Baroness Won
Turkheim, lately Mrs. J. NJ Delmar
of San Francisco. A representative Of
the Associated Press called at the
Windsor hotel shortly after 10 o'clock
and was granted an interview The wo-
man had registered as Mrs. J. NJ Del
mar, San Francisco. AT the beginning
of the interview Mrs. Delmar stated
that she was now convinced that the
supposed Baron Won Turkheim was q
fraud and none other than C. J. Won
Arnold, Of Stillwells detective agency.
She then related in detail the story Of
her discovery, in the supposed baron's
trunk, of letter addressed to c.. J.
Won Arnold, care of Stillwell's detective
agency, Liverpool; her taxing the baron
with the deception and his subsequent
desertiOn of her. She continued: when
1 taxed him with being not what he
represented himself but simply a de-
tective in the employ of Mr.. Delmar,
he laughed at me and said it was lucky
for me that the original plan was not
carried out. / then learned that they
originally intended that our wedding
trip should be made to Cheefoo. China,
where I was to be placed in an asylum
or something of the kind. Then they
probably thought I would object to 60
ing there. so the proposal was to get
mo 70
an asylum there. Dr. Delmar has lived
many years in France and probably
knows how that could be arranged"
Mrs. Delmar said that she and Mrs.
Richardson had remained in London
two weeks. She was asked who sent
her the money to return ut was sent"
she replied, "by a lawyer whom I in
tend to employ when I get back, who
is going to take an action for conspir-
acy or something Of that kind, H. w.

IN Montreal for two OF three DAYS but

she did not know. She had received a

HE ELUDED THE COPS.
Frank Schaffer Escapes Arrest Amid
a Fusilade.

Frank Schaffer, wanted by the local
authorities for the burglary of West
side confectionery store week ago Sun
day, thwarted the plans of two weeks
for his capture, near Mendoza late yes
terday afternoon and single-handed,
escaped half a dozen heavily armed
detectives and policemen detailed to
effect his capture. A fusilade of re-
volver shots were fired at Schaffer as
he gave the detectives the slip, but
their craftsmanship was as poor as
their judgment, in all rushing into the
house, where it was known Schaffer
was in hiding, instead of leaving
guard on the outside, and the much
wanted man made good his escape,
while the disguised police made their
way in detection to the central station.
They succeeded, however, in arresting
Schaffer'S companion, a woman named
Minnie Derrick, and captured a tent
and supplies, with which the couple
have been camping near Mendoza for
the past month.
The sending of platoon Of police
and detectives after Schaffer was due
to his known desperate character. as
he has openly threatened to kill any
one who attempted to arrest him,
When the burglary of the confection-
cry store was recognized as Schaffer's
work, plans were at once put in opera
ton for his capture. Detectives were
out night and day to locate the sus-
pected man, and when it was finally
found that he was in camp with the
Derrick woman near Mendoza, all man
ner of strategy was observed in the
plans for his arrest. The authorities
realized that they must get the man
dead to rights" or there might be q
vacancy in the police department. and
so yesterday afternoon, Detectives
Gruber, Murnane, Mckinley. of West
st. Paul: Olberg, OF the Margaret sta
ton; Officer McEllistrom and several
other patrolmen, were sent out to bring
in the badly wanted man. Each Of
ficer was armed to the teeth and went
prepared to get Schaffer dead or alive
When they reached A2edota it was
learned Schaffer had broken camp
and was at a house in the neighbor-
hood. Approaching the house a squad

WITH APOLOGY TO THE COLONEL.

Hennepin county's ratio in 1896 was but
rs per cent a reduction of over 100 per
cent from the figures Of the year before
Pioneer Press.
Before our own gallant Kiefer had
attained to the venerable dignity Of
an ex, and while he was presenting a
brave front to the assaults Of the icono-
elastic Wilson upon the tender starch
factories, the blooming potato fields
and the extensive lumber mills in his
district at Taylor's Falls, he made a
monumental speech, as our readers
may recall, in which he upbraided the
destructive Wilson for reducing the
protective duty on starch $50 per cent
Perhaps it was potatoes that suffer-
ed that terrific onslaught and starch
that got slashed but 100 per cent, but
it Is immaterial which was which for
the purposes of this apology. AS the
mathematics that allowed a reduction
of $50 per cent were not taught in our
school days, we were inclined to think
that the colonel had invented some
new principle in percentages; and ac-
cepted this solution as solving, in a.
way, the enigma of the colonei's cleo
ton from a district in which mercan-
tile and financial interests largely pre-
ponderated.
But when, soon after, Senator Hans
brough, the favorite son Of the North
Dakota Railway company, saw our
colonel and went him so much better
by declaring that free wool had reduc-
ed the sheep in his state 300 per cent,
it became clear that our hypothesis
would not work. The colonel, evidently.
either had not originated these novel
percentages, or, if he had, he had care
lessly omitted to protect his invention
by letters patent Or by copyright, and
Hansbrough, seeing their immense
utility as ammunition for the cam
paign, had appropriated the colonePs
scale and improved on 1t, inflated it,
as it Were. Probably Hans" as he is
affectionately styled by Mckinley and
Hanna, reasoned that, as the star
of empire was more westward in
Dakota than in Minnesota. the former
must surpass her in percentage: or It
may have just occurred to him that
300 per cent was more resonant, more
mouth-fllling, and, therefore. better
adapted to the treeless prairies of his
state than the colonels $780, Anyway.

Steady Games.
LONDON, May 31.--Much surprise is
expressed at the arrangements made by
Henniker Heaton, NJ. P, for the cable
chess match between members of the
British house of commons and the Unit
ed States house of representatives
which began today. The cable compan-
les were asked to transmit the moves
free of charge and the Associated Press
was also approached on the subject
Upon the Associated Press declining,
the exclusive right, after repeated de-
lays, was sold to the London Times
and an attempt will be made to exclude
all other newspapers. The various de-
lays have nearly wrecked the whole pro-
ject. Some of the English players a
fortnight ago, declared that if things
were not Immediately settled, they
would decline to play at ALL Not much
interest was displayed among the gen
eral members of the house, who were
seen this afternoon. Col. John Hay,
the United States ambassador, visited
committee room No. IL of the house of
ed, for five minutes today.
Room No. II, in which the British
team plays, is one Of the smaller
rooms for committees, on the corridor
facing the Thames. 1t has the usual
appearance of the rooms in the parlia-
ment houses, with gothic plan, oak
ceilings, green walls and mahogany
furniture. The five players were at
tables arranged in front OF the win
dcws and the telegraph wire was OPP
Grated from an adjoining corner. In
front Of the tables were three rows of
chairs, to be used by spectators from
the house Of commons, who kept going
and coming today without any par
ticular display of enthusiasm.
Ambassador Hay arrived punctually
and was cordially received. He heart
lily congratulated Mr.. Plunkett on
winning the first blood for Great Brit
ain. The scene during the playing to-
day was impressive, rather from a
