The Cherry Sisters Arrive.

The charming Cherry sisters, Effie,
AddIe, Jessie and Lizzie, came TO the city
last night and will appear this evening at
the Bijou Theater, after a most successful
run of fourteen weeks at Hammerstein's
New York They are very fair to look
upon, aud chatted quite pleasantly last
evening about their theatrical career with
a reporter of The Times. Miss Addie did
most of the talking The young ladies
went on the stage to pay off mortgage
on the old farm at Cedar Rapids, in which
they succeeded so well that they have
since been able TO buy two other farms,
and are other wise doing a land-office busi
ness. As car be inferred from these few
facts, they are girls of practical turn of
mind, the best evidence of which is that
they make their own clOthes including
their spring bonnets, none of which, how
ever, is from choice very Ostentatious
The sisters are quiet in demeanor, of very
pleasant manners, cultivated, and withal
winsome. They are the -four orphans"
of the stage. AS to their varied arts, they
specialties in recitations and tableaux.
They are not eccentrics, as described by
the metropolitan press, but simply talented
people, who make a livelihood, like all
other artists on the stage, on which they
have been for six years, with "a success

PREFERRED DEATH TO DIVORCE
Letters Throwing Light on the Sui
eide of Peter C.. Burke.

Peter G. Burke, the law student, well
known in this city, who committed suicide
in New York Saturday by inhaling gas,
left a note In which he told of his intention
to take his life. 1t was written on the
back of letter to him, informing him
that his wife had taken steps to secure a
divorce, and was as follows:
mo divorce. i will get it first. May
God bless and aid you. l am about to end
life. Bury me in Holy Cross. Come out
some time and visit the sad spot whereone
who loved lies. Rather | would live here
to be there and dead. Good-by, Alice.
PETE"
Burke's lawyer, his wife and his brother,
Rev. Father Burke, arrived in New York
yesterday and took charge of the body.
Letters foun d in Burke room, addressed to
him, show that he was in straitened finan-
cial circumstances, and was being support
ed by friends. One of them, from a Phila-
delphia law yer reads
Herewith find Communication book for
meals. | have also paid Mrs. Whirter for
lodging for you until May 3, 1897, inclu-
sive. This ends my care of you pecuniarily.
The money III my hands Is exhausted. Mrs.
Burke has take steps To secure separa-
ton and eventually divorce. Remember
this. If you attempt to use her name in any
way or to borrow any money or in any way
try to annoy her, steps will be taken against
you at once. My only advice is to secure
employment. You have played upon the
sympatmes of those who We're your friends
too long, and patience has ceased to be
virtue. You can expect no more help from
Mrs. Burke or myself, and your only re-
demption is to secure employment without
further delay. No letter will be acknowl-
edged, 50 it will be useless to write. You
have good education andUalentS; put theGn
to some use and make a living for yourself
Endeavor to retrieve your manhood, for
from the manner you have acted during the
last few years you have shown that you
regard nothing too low or mean so that yOu
can escape honest work. Just as long as
your friends were willing to give you
mere pittance you would avoid doing any
thing for yourself. Get work, and hard
work; it is your only redemption"

GORDY'S SANITY QU ESTIONED.
Growing Belief That the Condemned
Man Is Degenerate.

Wilmin gtOn, Del. May 3.-The demeanOr
of James NJ Gordy, VINO is now awaiting
the death penalty for the murder of ms
wife, is still a puzzle. There is "A fee!ing
anon Z the people who have seen the man N
Georgetown Jail tnat he is a degenerate, or
As the law puts it, moral idiot It's not
claimed that he does not know tight from
wrong, but that he has lost all idea Of the
value of human life. He appears to he
iiN1ued with the idea that IA man is com
PEELED To follow the life which is mapped
out for him by a higher power, and that
there his responsibility ends
Since the trial many persons have ex-
pressed wonder that counsel for Gordy did
not make a more elaborate defense for aim
than they did. This is explained by the
peculiar action of Gordy both before and
after the trial. Counsel have not talked
of the matter for publication, but to their
intimate friends and relatives they have
told the whole circumstances of the case,
aud it was from near relative oi one of
the counsel that the circumstances of the
defcnse's story WAS obtained.
Itis usuallyt ythe custom for al acCusedman
to tell his counsel all he knows about the
case or at least to give him some theory Of
defense on which to work, hut Gordy
refused to do anything Of the kind. When
asked what he knew about the case GoTdy
SAID he knew nothing When asked on
what theory he wanted his counsel to pro-
ceed nc said that he did not Kill the wOman,
and that was all it was necessary for him
to tell.
Had Gordy been willing to explain his
movements to his counsel and to have given
them some chance to show where he was
and how he acted on the night of the murder
it is possible that a very good defense on
thegrou al ofinsanity could have been made.
Gordy is admitted to have been at least
partly insane at various times in his life.

a free woman.

TO IGNORE THE GOVERNOR.
West Virginia Legislature to Cor
veue in Extra Session.

VeUc III EAtEa SESSION..
M,Tgantown, W. Va, May 3.-That an
extra session Of the legislature will pass
upon the amendments to the Constitutitn II
which will be offered by the constitutional
commission seems to be almost an assured
thing Senator r. +. Fast, chairman of
the commission, upon his return home Sun
day morning from the commissions $ .irst
sitting, gave this as his opinion, and he is
backed by a number Of others who are
members Of the commission.
The commission is in a bad humor with
Gov Atkinson, who, at the outset. made it
plain to the members that he would re
fuse to call an extra session. They are
going to ignore the governor by conven-
ing themselves. This, under the Consti-
tuition, they can do with the consent ard
by the petition OF three-fifths Of the Inem-
bers The members of the commission
claim that they already have enough
strength pledged to an extra session
Nearly all Of the Republican members and
twenty Democratic members, it is said,
will sign the call.

Circulation Statement.
WASHINGTON. MONDAY, MAY 3.
The End in Sight.

Thediarhosis ofthe situation atand about
ago, is absolutely justified in general and
in details 10y the news of this morning il
now is conceded that the Turkishattack on
Gen Smolensh at velestino was a feint,
the serious movement being made coin
cidently against the Greek left wing he
tween Pharsala and Pharsades 7 his
latter was successful, Constantine's force
in that direction retiring to avoid circum-
vention. Doubtless the Greek left wing
then took up a defensive position, close to
the mountain at reverse angle to the
front and connecting with it not much west
Of the town; thus presenting e cover to the
immediate left and rear of the position.
The dispatches make it highly probable
that the battle Of Pharsala VIII be fought
today, and a. we have predicted. the main
rection OF Tnkkala, j. e., Oh the left.
With only thirty thousand troops and sixty
guns at his command, Constantine must
have withdrawn his right from Velestino,
snd concentrated his forces at Pharsala,
inaSmuch as he could not occupy a line
seven miles long, especially when opposed
10 his thirty thousand the Turks have sixty
thousand men and more thar double his
complement of ordnance
A uirfr
stated that the Greek headquarters had
been or were about to be removed To Dom
bokos, a point on the LalisSa road about
ten miles south of Fharsala If this is
true, and the movement has been effected
without opposition, il means the abandon
ment OF the comparatively strong position
Of Pharsala, and Of al intention to meet
Edhcm Pasha again in pitched battle. We
have some, but not well defined, doubt
as to the Feasibility of such a retreat, as
we are inclined to think that the Turkish
right, which must have enveloped the
Greek left after the affair OF Friday,
ought 10 he in a position to oppose such a
movement from the west-southwest We
are likely tc know all about it today or to-
morrow morning.
The efforts Of the British ministry tO Sc
cure intervention before the occurrence
uf another battle have failed, as they
were nearly sure to. Greece has neither
begged FOR mercy, nor is she sufficiently
humbled 10 suit the game Of Russia, Ger
many and Austria. In addition to tins
consideration, the further humiliation Of
Greece is the humiliation Of England and
that, to the three Emperors, is an inn
portant object just now, firstly, Oh general
principles. and, secondly, because it may
exert a deciding influence upon the atti-
tude # France in the matter of forming
alliances
The story OF operations in EpiTus for the
past week is story Of Greek incompetence,
disorganization and disaster. The armed
Hellnes in that province and ia ThesSaly
as well, are not likely to be of further
interest, regarded as military fOIces cOni-
petent TO engage in scientific warfare.
The end. therefore, is in sight, and from
every professional viewpoint is isimmediately
at hand
