GAINES'S STATEMENT.
No Knowledge of Suit Brought by
 Miss Miller's Father.

Ponghkeepsie, N. Y, Oct. 7.-Presi- dent Clement C. Gaines of Eastman college said this morning that he had no knowledge of reported lawsuit by ex-Congressman T. E. Miller, a negro, of South Carolina, to recover damages for refusal to admit his daughter to the college after she had applied for admission to attend.
 MT. Gaines says that he remembers that the young woman came to the college some time ago, but on account of the large number of young men from the south in the institution it was not thought advisable to give her public instruction A letter to that effect was sent to the young woman's s father with an offer to give her pri- vate instruction.
 This was not agreeable to ex-Con- gressman Miller, and he sent his daughter to a school in Brooklyn Mr. Gaines says that his correspondence with the father was friendly and that he has had no hint of a suit Miss Miller is very light in color and would not be suspected of having negro blood. She is we'll educated and was recently chosen president of the State Negro and Industrial college.

NEW TELEPHONE.
Great Advantage Over the Present
 Instrument Claimed.

New York, Oct IA new tele- phone for which great things are prom ised, was exhibited in the office cf the Smit -Vassar Telephone company yesterday. It's inventor claims that although intended for a public tele- phone, it will have ali the advan-ages of a private telephone, without hay ing any of the disadvantages. The new telephone is said to be radical Improvement on the present system, and will not only dispense with the services of the operators at the eX- change, but will materially lessen the cost of maintenance of the system by requiring fewer wires. The new telephone has a switch with fifty or more numbers on it, and to call a sub scriber it is necessary only to put plug in the hole corresponding to the subscribers number and turn the switch, when he is called up instantly without disturbing the bells of any of the other subscribers on the line
 The company intends to begin the use of the telephone in small towns and villages which cannot be supplied with telephones by the Bell company because of the great expense in main faining the system.

EVERYTHING SHATTERED
The Grandjurynen Became
 Adverse Witnesses
The Two Mainstays Of the Sausage Maker, His Partner and His Par amour Mary Seimmering, Shown to be Unreliable.

Chicago, Oct. 7-One more day of evidence and the finish of the Luet- gert trial will be in sight The state announced today that it had but a few witnesses and that it would get through tomorrow without much de. lay, and an adjournment will then be taken until Monday, when the defense will offer a small amount of rebuttal evidence and then the way will be clear for the arguments of the attor- neys, which will take about one week.
 It was a bad day for the defense. The evidence of two of their chief wit nesses was almost destroyed. Mary Siemmering and William Charles, Luetgert's business partner. were the sufferers. Witness after witness came on the stand and swore that when Mary Siemnering had denied that she had admitted improper relations with Luetgert she had not iold the truth. They said, she had admitted it in the most unequivocal manner. Most of these witnesses were members of the grand jury which had indicted Luet- gert and their evidence was crushing. They all told the same story and the most desperate efforts of the defense could not shake one of them.
 Prominent business man who had business with Charles, and bankers with whom he had done business, swore that he could not be believed under oath, and told of shady business transactions of which he had been guilty In this case, as in that of Mary Siemmering, the defense made frantic efforts to save the character of their witness, but were not able to ac- complish anything

SAFETY DEVICE FOR RAILROADS.
An Invention to Prevent Collisions
 and Other Accidents.

St. Paul, Minn, Oct. "A very in- genious and valuable contrivance for the saving of life by preventing raii- road accidents through forgetfulness of trainmen has been invented. The machine has just stood a very severe test on the Great Northern railroad, after having been previously operated successfully on the St. Paul 6 Duluth road.
 The mechanism is connected with the forward trucks of the engine, thereby accurately measuring the dis tance travelled, the dial, placed in front of the engineer showing cor rectly the distance travelled. Above the dial are placed fifteen triggers or dogs, pivoted at equal distances around the center When the engineer receives his orders he sets one or more of these triggers to a point one mile short of the distance to be travelled before reaching the stepping place. The mileage indicator, on reaching such point releases the trigger which starts a signal whistle blowing.
 This continues to blow for one quarter of a mile, promptly warning the engineer of the near approach to the stopping place. If the engineer is inattentive and fails to stop when this last mile has been run over, the machine sets the air brake and stops the train for him. A train similarly equipped coming in the opposite di- rection would be stopped in the same manner and a collision prevented.

BOY AND CHECKS MISSING.
Sent to the Bank With Two-S10 900
 and $500.

New York, Oct "A messenger boy employed by Douglass & Jones of No. 24 Broad street is missing with a check for S10,000 and $500 in cash which he had in his possession. The boy was sent to a Broadway bank at 10 o'clock this morning. He was to get the check for $10,000 certified and check for $500 cashed.
 The boy did not return, and an alarm was sent out for him. At the bank 1t was learned that the messen- ger had cashed the check for $500, but did not present the larger check for certificatio1r.
 Messengers were sent to all the firms doing business with Douglass & Jones to ask if the boy had been seen. The reply in each instance was in the negative. The boy is an unusually bright little fellow and has won the friendship of many of the financial men with whom he has come in con- tact. He Is general favorite, and it is not believed that he has stolen the money.

ENGLAND HOLDING BACK
Distractions Placed in the
 Way of the Conference
The Subject of Bimetallism Referred to COnnnisSlon of Her Own, Af- ter Which the Monetary Com- missIonerS will be Talked to.

London, Oct. 1.-The prediction made in the dispatches of the Associated Press on Saturday last to the effect that Great Britain's answer to bi- metallic proposals would be delayed. has been confirmed. Arrangements have now been made to hold an in formal conference between the chan cellor Of the exchequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, and other British of ficials on one side, and the United States monetary commissioners and Col. Hay, United States ambassador, on the other side, for the purpose of reaching a more definite understand ing as to what the United States and France expect
 Consequently the British govern ment will be unable to fulfill the prom ise of the chancellor of the exchequer to give the United States commission CTS reply early during the present month, and the delay will possibly last some weeks.

CUTTER BEAR.

 Tons of Gold

Port Townsend, Oct. 7.-According to Capt. Munger of the cutter Grant, it is the Bear and not the Corwin that will guard from all despoilers the tons of Klondyke nuggets that the steamer Portland is to bring from St. Michael.
 Orders fer Capt. Futile to thus act as policeman of the seas were talk en to him by the Corwin, which left Unalaska for St. Michael on the same day the Grant started for this port. On Sept. 19 the Alaska Commercial company's steamer Bertha brought to Unalaska news from St. Michael up to Sept. F.
 There were over 100 men from the upper Yukon waiting to come down on the Portland, and according to the sailor gossip they had 'fall kinds of gold" But the officers of the Grant say that according to their best in formation no vast amount of treasure will be brought down.

 The London market shows an ir- creasing disposition to take a specu- lative interest in our securities, but the weakness of the last few days has discouraged buying transactions. The Bank Of England has made no fur ther advance in it's rate of discount; which has produced a better feeling in the foreign speculative markets. Germany is taking more interest in cur railroad issues, and some consid- erable buying orders have been re- ceived from Berlin, though in some cases at prices too low to be executed; but these transactions are done in such a quiet way that they produce less impression than their inlpor- tance meritS-
