SUIT AGAINST MAJOR GINTER.
Mrs. Dowden Brings One for $4,000
Against Him and His Niece.

Suit was instituted in the Law and
Equity Court yesterday morning by
Mrs. Laura b. Dowden, through her
counsel, Mr.. l.. o. WeDdenberg. against
Major Lewis Ginter and Miss Grace Il.
Arents, his niece, for $4,000 damages, for
alleged defamation Of character.
The plaintiff was for three and a half
years, and up to January 1st last, em-
ployed by Major Ginter as house
keeper. For some time articles of
jewelry, silver and sums of money have
been disappearing from the house, and all
efforts 10 discover the person who was
removing them appeared futile. on
Christmas Eve a ball was given by
Major Ginter, and the next morning a
piece of jewelry was missing. Miss
Arents, it is asserted, conferred with
Major Ginter about the matter, and he
told the young lady to dismiss Mrs.
Dowden.
In performing this unpleasant function
on January 1st last Miss Arents was
asked by Mrs. Dowden for the ground
upon which she was discharged, ana it
is claimed by the housekeeper that Miss
Arents said that Major Ginter suspected
her of having taken the articles.
The matter of the thefts was report
ana Detective Charles n. Gibson
searched the effects Of all the servants
on New-Year's morning. before the SER
wants had gotten up, but none Of the
stolen property was discovered. The
officer looked through the effects of Mrs.
Dowden in her presence and with her
assistance
Mrs. Dowden then called upon Mr..
Wendenberg, and engaged that gentle
man to represent her, having him first
to write a letter to Major Ginter. ask
ing for the reparation due her by the
removal of the stigma placed upon her
character. In this communication Mrs.
Dowden said that she would be salts
fed If Major Ginter would deny having
accused the plaintiff of theft, and Miss
Arents would make an apology for
what she said TO Mrs. Dowden. Major
Glnter and Miss Arents replied through
their counsel Major Charles s. String
fellow. The former denied having ac-
cused Mrs. Dowden of being dishonest,
and Miss Arents stated that Mrs.
Dowden had misconstrued her language.
but that she could not apologize, as she
had only used the words which Major
Ginter had used to her in speaking of
Mrs Dowden's dismissal.
On January 5th, Rev. Pike Powers,
rector OF St Andrew cnurch, or which
church Mrs. Dowden is member, wrote
Mr.. Wendenberg a letter, in which he
stated that Miss Arents had just been TO
see him. and she said that Major Gnter
did not say that Mrs. Dowden was the
thief. but that he only suspected her Of
being such.
Mrs. Dowden. however, claims that she
has witnesses to prove that she was ac-
cused Of taking the jewels by both Miss
Arents and Major Ginter, and hence the
suit.
The defendants, it is understood, claim
that neither OF them ever DETAINED the
character Of Mrs. Dowden, or any one
else, and that the suit is one unwisely
brought. Most Of the things that were
lost were taken from secret drawers In
some Of the furniture. The last money
stolen was marked, but never could be
traced

LAvIGNE STILL CHAMPION.
He Defeats Mcfarland In a Twenty
Fiye-Round Bout.

NEW YORK. February s.-George
C'Kid') Lavisne, Of Saginaw, Mich, on
whose shoulders the mantle Of light
weight champion fell recently, was called
on to defend mis- newly-acqulred title
in a twenty-ive-round bout with kid"
Mcfarland, of this city, tonight. La
vigne got the decision after the tull
twenty-five rounds had been fought The
champion did all the leading from start
TO finish and punished his man hard,
although il was a very clean fight. with
out a trace Of blood. McPartland's awk-
ward style made 1t difficult for La
vigne 20 land his swinging blows on the
Jaw, but he kept the local man strictly
on the defensive.
Mcpartlands fast foot-work and clever
ducking saved him several times. IL
was a very fast battle, and Lavigne cut
out a terrific pace. which he maintained
to the close. Mcfarland put up good.
staying fight, but he had fought but
few rounds. when he was forced 10 re-
sort TO saving tactics.
The bout drew a very fair crowd TO
the arena OF the Broadway Athletic Club,
Notwithstanding the fact that the price
OF admission had been raised TO half
again as much as the ordinary figure.
Mcfarland had an advantage OF nearly
six inches 10 height, and also had a
longer reach. but the Saginaw boys
friends were In no way doubtful OF the
result. and very little Mcfarland money
was put up at odds of 10 ?.

THE REFORMS FOR CUBA.
Comment on Them I'm Habana--Gen-
eral Lee Aiding Sccvei.

HABANA. February S.-The evening
daily papers, la Luca and Diariode la
Marina. are the first 10 publish COM
ments upon the new scheme OF reforms
for Cuba, the publication of which was
only allowed here yesterday. Both
paper simply analyze the extent and
scope of the reforms, without attaching
undue Importance to them, or employing
the bombastic phrases which are gene
rally used IN recording or commenting
upon any unusual event.
The general public has received the
news calmly, and has quietly discussed
IL. but as yet there has been no outward
demonstration OF Joy over the event.
Though the Spanlards accept the reforms
a M loyalty they are bound TO, there ~
a general feeling that their acceptance
by the Cubans is a matter Of grave doubt.
TO BE EXILED.
Eduardo Varela Zoquiera. formerly a
correspondent Of La Discussion, news
paper of this city: Jose Morel Alques'
Carlos Adam Masvidal and Enrique
Aguero Pas, all OF whom have been
either convicted or are suspected of pollti-
cal crimes. will be exiled to the Chafta-
rine Islands.
Consul-General Lee has requested that
Sylvester Scoyel the American news
paper correspondent, who was arrested
at Tunas on Friday last, be brought 10
Habana. in order that his case may be
heard here. 1t appears that the authori-
ties intended that he be tried at santa
Clara, in which province he was arrested.

the State of New York resumed its In
yestigation this morning

plants of the different refineries embraced
in the trust and its successor, the
existing sugar-refining company; now
much stock had been issued 70 the own
ers of the different refineries; what
nronortion the stock issued bore TO the
value of the properties; what Is the total

In reply TO questions about the lndl-
vidual reflneries. Mr.. Searles said the
Information asked for would have 10 be
obtained from the separate corporations

gard 10 the affairs of the sugar-reiining
company. MIR. Searles said he would be
happy 10 inform the committee, provided
the directors of the company consented
10 his doing so.
Chairman Lexow asked: DO not you
as a businessman. think that the Issuing
~ capital stock at figures that do not
renresent real value is the principal vice
in corporations o.,
81 hardly think that is the truth for
the reason that the corporation law Is

taken off by the Greek war vessels.
UNION OF CRETE AND GREECE.
ATHENS, February s-A dispatch from
Canea states that the union OF Crete ana

ments on the Cretan situation. declare

CIose-Southcrn building Assn.

ATLANTA, GA, February S-The

temporary receivership to-day. but the
bank did not close its doors. There was
a run on the bank. but every demand
was met. w. A. Bates and T. J. Ripley
were appointed temporary receivers by
Judge John S. Gambler, on the appli-
cation Of W. c. McLane. a book-keeper
in the Bates Farley Bank. Ripley is
an attorney here.

1900 1t is alleged in the petition for
a receiver that the Southern Mutual
Building and Loan Association was in
debted to the bank in a large sum, and
that the bank probably would never be
able 10 collect its indebtedness. In an
swer to this. the banks officers says
that the Building and Loan Association
owes nothing to the bank; but that, on
the contrary, the bank was carrying
deposit for the association. The case

SITUATION IN EGYPT.
French Criticism of Sir Michael
Hicks-Beach's Remark

PARIS. February SIN the Chamber of
Deputies to-day, NJ. Hanotaux, Minister or
Foreign Affairs, replying TO a question by
NJ. de Loncle, regarding the effect of the
France -Frusslan memorandum said that
nothing had been done to change
the international situation I'm Egypt, as
founded with the accord of the Powers.
France, he said, held by the international
acts. which It was impossible for any
Power to invalidate.
NJ Hanotaux continuing, said he did
not desire TO engage in any polemics be-
tween Parliament and Parliament
French and English) which might cause
regrettable misunderstanding. The de-
clarations made by Sir Michael Hicks
Beach. the British Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer. in the English House of Com
mons, he said. would not tend toward a
solution Of international questions.
England had accepted the position OF de-
Tending her case before the mixed tribu-
nal. and why should Sir Michael
Hicks-Beach discredit that tribunal,
which had the appreciation Of Europe?
Would England have protested, he asked,
II the verdict of the tribunal had been
favorable TO her?
The incident was then closed.

BUILD A NEW HOTEL.
NORTHERN CAPITALISTS TO ERECT

RUMORS TO THIS EFFECT RIFE
Reported That "A West-End Site Has

Richmond is to have a new hoteli 40
least. that is what Madame Rumor says;
and it remains now tc, be seen whether
she is talking through her bonnet or not.
II she speaks the truth, the Jefferson
will have a formidable rival In the shape
OF an up-to-date West-End hostelry, con-
tanning 80 rooms, and all modern con-
veniences.
The report that such n hotel is to be
erected here became current Sunday, and
yesterday it was being circulated and
generally discussed about the city. Those
who profess to know anything as TO the
foundation for the rumor are as dumb
as the proverbial oyster; and those who
have only heard the rumor, but are in
terested therein, have all sorts OF con-
lectures TO advance.
A Dispatch reporter, who heard the
report. strove diligently TO ascertain
something definite concerning the pro-
iect, but all that he was able to learn
was that some northern capitalists. who
were pleased with the attractions of
this city. had determined 70 build a
strictly first-class hotel here. IL was
said, moreover, that their plans had so
far matured that they had secured an
attractive West-End site, and had sub
mitted their ideas to an architect, who
is to furnish plans for tall, freproof
structure containing 80 bedrooms, with
bath attachments to each room.
one gentleman, who had gotten his In
formation direct from the promoters OF
the scheme said that il was the purpose

shrouded in secrecy until the last of this
week, when matters will have assumed
such definite shape as to permit of an
authorized statement being given out.
Nothing further than the mere rumor
that the erection of hotel was being
contemplated was known at the Jeffer-
