Washington, June 16.-The universal
postal congress, the fifth convention of
its kind in the world, finished its Ia
bors yesterday. The next congress
will be held in Rome in February,
1908. The final session was devoted to
the formal signing of the general
treaty and of the detailed articles. The
following is an official resume of the
results of the woS of the congress:
First-A principal treaty was sigrcd
which excludes the entry of Corea into
the postal union; the declaration of
the Orange Free State, which failed to
send delegate to Washington, that it
hoped soon to enter the union, was re-
coded and likewise the declaration of
the Chinese empire, which was repre-
sented in the congress, THAI Ut will OBJ
serve the regulations of the union as
permits.
Second-lntermediar transit rates
have been facilitated and the tariff
diminished quite materially on a grad
uated scale for the ensuing six years
Third-Uniform oolors have been
projected for postage stamps
Fourth--Postal cards unpaid are
subjected to a double tax; that Is four
cents in place of the former tax which
was ten cents, the same as for unpaid
letters.
Fifth-Circulars produced on a ma
chine (typewritteM in quantities of
20 circulars all of the same character
are TO be admitted to the international
mails at the same rates as printed cir
culars.
SiXth-Samples of merchandise are
TO he admitted up to $50 grammes.
Seventh-Objects of natural history,
plants or preserved geological spec
linens are to be admitted as samples.
Eighth The question of the crea-
ton Of a universal postal stamp was
brought up and the proposition de-
Ieated on account of the difficulty
which would occur in putting into
practice that important innovation, es-
pecially because of the diversity of the
currency standards.
The new treaty will become opera
tive January /, 1899. Most of the dele
gates have left for their homes.

LOSES HIS WEALTHY WIFE
Friends of Mrs. j. Willard Induce Hel
TO Leave Her Husband.

Malinette, Wis, June Is. Joseph +.
Willard, the actor who eloped with
eX-CUngressman Stephenson's niece
Belle Aiken, Of Menominee, Mich, is
here looking for his bride whom he
lest Monday in Chicago. He claims
thai she was taken from him by illegal
means of officers in Chicago. Her
whereabouts now are not known. She
is not in Menominee or Marinette.
Willard s2ys he will continue the
search until he tibds her. He will
employ Menominee attorney to assist
him in his efforts. His visit here
caused a big surprise. Willard says:
They simply done me up in a smooth
game, but it is my turn next" Mrs.
Willard, it is said, will be taken west
to live with relatives in California.
Chicago, June 16.-Mrs. Joe F. will
lard, who was Miss Belle Aiken of
Menominee, Mich, the belle of the
town and niece of ex-Congressman
Isaac Stephenson, who ran away from
home in company with Mr.. Willard, a
vaudeville actor, and was married, has
consented to return home and Mr.. Will
lard is mourning the loss of his bride.
Mrs. Willard is about 10 years of age
and was fascinated with the actor, who
was engaged by some young people of
Menominee to train them in an anna
teur performance. Miss Aiken was
cast for the star part and Willard was
leading man. When the couple disap-
peared R. E. Jennings, son-in-law of
Congressman Stephenson, pursued and
followed the bride and groom to Chi
cago First, however, he found out
that Mr.. Willard had been divorced
from one wife at Eau Claire, Wis,
which was his home, and with this
information he decided to try to induce
the young lady to return to her home
and break from her Thespian cavalier
Aided by a detective, who enticed the
actor away from the hotel where the
two were stopping, Mr.. Jennings called
upon the young lady and urged her to
return. She was loath to do so. Jen-
nings told her some things he had
found out. Still the young lady hes
itated. He entreated her, begging her
to think Of her folks at home Grasp
ing her cloak he wrapped it around her
and gently drew her to the door She
captulated and left the room and en-
tered a carriage which was waiting at
the door and was driven to the station
where she took train for her north
ern home. When Willard found that
he had been duped he rushed from the
hotel to the station but did not see MS
bride He took the next train for
Menomlnee. Willard was christened
Joseph F. Halbleib He got his name
changed to Willard by the circuit
court at Eau Claire last year. His
mother married several times and Jo-
seph was known most of his life at
home as Joseph F. Halter. Kalter be-
ing his stepfather's name. Wizards
first wife, Ida Smith, was granted q
divorce decree In September, 1892, on
the ground OF cruelty.
