M. DELCASsE'S MISSION.
1t Was to Dissuade Emperor Nicholas From
AbdicatinG the Throne of Rus
STA, 1t ia Said.

LONDON, Aug. 5--M. De Blowitz, the
Paris correspondent of the Times,
gives an extraordinary explanation of
NJ. Delcasse's present mission. He as
serts that it was decided upon quite
suddenly for a reason which admitted
Of no delay" and then gives the story,
which he says he has from "a source
to which am bound to attach import
ance." This is the explanation:
Emperor Nicholas is disappointed
and tired of the throne. The absen &c
of an heir excites his superstitious
feelings, and he connects himself with
Russian legend according to which
an heirless car is to be succeeded by a
car Michael, predestined to occupy
Constantinople.
THE death of the czarewitch and the
failure of the conference at The Hague
led him to decide to abdicate on the
occasion of his coming visit to Darn
stadt. On this becoming known il

haste to dissuade him from carrying

SELLING GOATS MEAT.
Placed on the Chicago Market and
Sold as Good Mutton.

CHICAGO, Aug. 5,-The Daily News
says: Thousands of goats are bought,
slaughtered and placed upon the mar
lxets of Chicago and sold as mutton by
some packers at the stock yards. This
traffic is carried on most extensively
during the winter and early spring up
to and including the month of April.
The goats and kids are principally of
the Angora kind and come from the
northwest, while few are shipped in
from the south. The latter are of the
common goat species and do not find
as ready sale as the Angoras.
Besides being very palatable as a
food, the Angora goat and kid are used
for other purposes. The skins CT the
goats are used for making floor mats
and robes for babies, while the skin
of the kid is used for trimming fUrs.
Dr. w. S. Devoe, of the bureau of
animal industry, when asked Friday
in regard to goats being sold for NUT
| ton, said: "They certainly are quite
free from disease, are fat and make ex'
cellent eating. Of course the very
common billy goat would have a
tendency to be strong and have bao
odor. There is no law to prevent them
being sold, and when we find them il
the packing houses they are inspected
the same as any other carcass"
The records at the yards show thai
some weeks as high as 5000 goats have
been received.
| WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-Referring t.
the reports that goat meat is being solo
in some of the western cities as NUT
ton, DR.. Salmon. chief of the bureau
of animal industry, said Friday tina
the law provided only for the inspec
ton of cattle, sheep and hogs, aid tina
nothing short of congressional actor
would remedy the defect. DR.. Salmon
said, however, that he did not antici
pate much danger from the use O
goat meat, as goats were general.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-Mr. f. w.
Fitzpatrick, of the treasury depart
ment, has just returned to Washington
from Ottawa, where he went at the in
stance of the committee of citizens of
Chicago in charge of the ceremonies of
laying the cornerstone of that city's
great post office building next October,
by President Mckinley, to arrange for
the formal invitation and expected &C
ceptance from ChicagO's citizens to the

Mr.. Fitzpatrick is the assistant Unit
ed States architect, under Architect
Henry Ives Cobb, for the Chicago build

slightly chilly, Sir Wilfrid Laurie1
candidly telling him that under the
present conditions it would be impos-

any social invitations to this side OF

AsToR, THE TRAITOR.
A HOOting, Jeering Crowd Burned
William Waldorf Astor In E6igy
in New York City.

New YORK, Aug. Surrounded by
a hooting, jeering crowd of several
hundred persons, William Waldorf
Astor was burned in efigy Friday
night in Longacre square. DIR. +. w.
Grove, an elderly physician, who lives
in his own handsome brown stone
dwelling at No 22S West 49th street,
was the prime mover in the
incident. He hired so men
to assist him. At $50 p. m.
he carried big rocking chair from
his house to truck driven by An
thony Kemmer. With it he had an
oilsoaked barrel. On the chair he
placed lay figure CARRIED in striped

tight-6tting trousers and good shoes.
Across the chest of the figure was a

The wagon, followed by a crowd,
was driven down Broadway. At a
point near Thirty-sixth street he tried
to make speech, but the police or

OFF A TRESTLE.
A Distressing Accident on a Trolley
Line Near Bridgeport, CT.
Only Two Persons Are Known to Have rs.
caped-Many of the Victims Were
Instantly Killed-Road Was
Only Opened Thursday.

BRIDGEPORT. Ct, Aug. NEARLY 40
persons were killed by an accident on
the Stratford extension of the Shelton
Street Railway Co. at o'clock Sunday
afternoon when loaded trolley car
went off the trestle over Peck's mill
pond at Oronoque, about six miles
north of Bridgeport, and sank in the
fats 40 feet below. Thus far SO peo-
pie are known to be dead and several
more injured.
Only two persons are known to have
escaped unhurt.
1t is believed that there were 43
passengers on the car but the indica-
tor was removed by a conductor of
another car and spirited away, so that
at present it is impossible to state ac-
curately the number aboard
The scene of the accident is midway
between Shelton and Bridgeport. The
car was northbound, running toward
Shelton. 1t was in charge of Conductor
John Carroll, of Bridgeport, who was
among the killed, and Mortorman
Hamilton, of Bridgeport, who escaped
| by jumping. The trestle is 44O feet
| long, made of iron with stone founda-
tions and was not protected by guard
rails
South of the trestle an incline down
which the car ran at high rate OF
speed. After it ran onto the trestle
for about ten feet the trucks left the
rails and then the car continued on
the ties for about rs feet, when it went
off the, trestle and dropped into the
pond below, overturning completely
and upending. When the car struck,
the four-ton motor and the heavy
trucks crushed into it, instantly kill
ing many of the passengers.
Three physicians who were passen-
gers on a car short distance behind,
arrived quickly on the scene and rend-
cred all possible assistance to the in
jured. Word was sent to Bridgeport
and three ambulances and a police
wagon were hurried to the scene and
the injured were taken to Bridgeport
general hospital
A morgue was improvised in the
main room of the town hall at STRAIT
ford and in very short time % bodies
were laid out awaiting Identification.
The accident was witnessed by Miss
Francis Peck, who resides about 4OC
feet from the bridge. She was up
stairs at her home as the car
was passing and she says that il
was running unusually fast. Frank
Cramer, who was bathing near the
bridge, states that the passengers were
all singing and in the most joyful
mood as they passed him.
The road, which is practically con
trolled by the Bridgeport Traction Co.,
was opened for traffic last Thursday

lighted to go and was looking forward
to the day with much anticipation.
But since then the tone of your press
has become so harsh in dealing with
the Alaskan boundary question, such
Misrepresentation have been made
about our government and particularly
about me that it would be undigni fed
for US to visit you, and can not advise
his excellency to CO."
Mr.. Fitzpatrick said that Sir Will
frid intimated that in the present state
of public feeling in the United States,
as indicated in the press, it would not
be entirely safe for the governor gen
eral and himself to visit Chicago. He
feared that they might, in a great
gathering of such a character as the
Chicago ceremony, be subjected to
some unpleasantness or indignity by
thoughtless persons.
Sir Wilfrid expressed himself as
strongly in favor of arbitrating the
Alaskan boundary dispute and con-
cluded the interview as follows:
''No, much as regret it, could not
go to Chicago under present conditions
and shall certainly, however painful a
duty it may be, also his excellency, to
decline the invitation that know and
feel has so kindly been extended to US
by the city of Chicago"
Mr.. Fitzpatrick secured Sir Wilfrid's
promise, however, to reconsider the
matter.
