COURT DRESS
Prescribed for Diplomats at tn Rus
sian Capital.

sian capital.
New York Tribune
Quite a ripple Of excitement in Ameri-
can diplomatic circles was caused by
circular, issued under the personal IN
structions of the emperor by the Russian
minister Of foreign affairs, and which
reopens the much discussed question Of
court dress for American diplomatic rep
resentatives abroad. The circular for
mally notifies all foreign embassies and
legations at St Petersburg that the court
costume of dark blue evening coat with
a velvet collar and brass buttons, white
or blue waistcoat and blue trousers. Is
prescribed for all persons not otherwise
entitled to wear uniforms who attend
court ceremonies.
The Russian circular explicitly states
that the new regulations apply to all dis
tinguished foreigners and accredited rep
resentatives in Russia Of such countries as
have not adopted for their diplomatic off,
GERS specific uniforms or costumes.
IT Is stated by those In a position to
know that similar measures are likely to
be taken at the courts of Berlin. Copen-
hagen, The Hague and Brussels. 1t is
we'll known that the plain black evening
dress worn by official representatives Of
the United States is not recognized at
ST. Petersburg as suitable for occasions
of ceremony. and is looked upon by the
court chamberlains very much as those
assembled at a dinner party in New York
would regard a guest attired In tweed
and knickerbockers.
During an informal exchange of views.
which preceded the issuance Of the Rus
sian circular already forwarded to the
state department at Washington, Mr.
Tower, the ambassador at st. Petersburg,
earnestly requested the Russian authori-
ties to adopt as plain a style for diplo-
matte officers as was consistent with the
requirements in order to make 1t accord
with American views on the subject The
Russian government accepted the sug-
gestion and prescribed court costume
of cloth instead of velvet, as was orig
inallY contemplated.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Ex-senator Haw-
ley, of Connecticut. was at the war de-
partment today to confer sith the Of
ficials concerning the military legisla-
ton which is likely to be brought before
tic coming congress. AS chairman OF
the senate committee on military affairs
Gen Hawley has much to do with tee
shaping of military legislation. He says
3nat for himself he would be ready 10
so to work at the coming session and
pass a measure for a permanent army
establishment. but he recog piZes that
there would be difficulties in the way OF
getting such a measure through. owing
10 the temporary army act, which pro-
yi3es for 4 force up to July, 1901. and
also because of the uncertainties con-
nected with the Philippine situation.
These reasons will be sufficient. Gen.
HawIey thinks. to keep quite a number
of men in congress from supporting
uermanent army bill at this time, and
it incltnes him to the belief that the per-
manent measure Will so over until the
second session. At that time 1t will be
essential to frame a measure, as the
Temporary organization will expire IN

CHIPPEwAs WANT CASH.
VIII Sue the Government for More
Than Million Dollars.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-A big suit N
volving something like a million and
half OF money is to be Instituted against
the government by representatives of the
Chippewa Indians of Minnesota. This
amount is claimed by the Chi3pewas IS
being due Oh former sales OF Minnesota
pine lands in 1856 and 81 and repre-
sents the cash value Of the difference be-
tween the estimate under which the pine
was sold and the subsequent discovery
that the government Us innate was wrong
and that millions of feet of pine went
into the sale- that had never been esti-
mated. The government afterward ad-
mitted that its estimate was wrong.
The Indians have BEEN waiting for con-
gress- to act and afford some relief, out
that will not be done. They grew so tired
of waiting that about a year ego Old
Bug Instituted Z rebellion and insure =

That settled the rire claim, so far as
congress is concerned. After the lusur-
recticn at Bear Island, a Minnesota con-
gresham WOULD as soon vote for Agtlin-
.ldo for president of the United States as
he would to reimburse Old Bug and his
rapacious reds.

WASHINGTON, Oct 2S.-The state de-

Hngtcn hotel for the use of the Philip

Accommodation in the already over
crowded department building. Col. DENLY
and Prof. Worcester are spending much
time in consultation with leading officials
of the administration. Although the
plans fer the approaching session OF the
commission have not yet been fully out
lined, the indications are that the earnest
efforts OF the body will be deVated to the
preparation OF a short, concise prel1mi-
nary report, which will be submitted in
season to serve as a basis for such con-
gressional legislation as may be neces-
sary for the approaching session. 1t is
presumed that this would set out briefly
the origin of the breach between Aguin-
aldo and the American forces, fixing the
responsibility therefor, with all. the
weight that should attach to the conclu-
sion Of a body of this character.
Ii is not believed that the attempt will
be made in the preliminary report to plan
a detailed system of government for the
Philippines, but this would be allowed to
so over until the instruction has been
Queled. All of this forecasts a return
of the commission to Philippines, even
before the expiration of the present dry
season, if the result of the present mill
tary operations warrants it, and a cir
cuInstance that tends to cOrrOborate this
belief is the fact that the commission has
left behind at Manila, Installed in it's
headquarters, the entire force of en-
pl0Yes and officials, save Secretary Mac
Arthur.

Of late years, with her widows weeds

death, decreed that In all matters Of court
etiquette she should continue to take

which even royalty might extend to the
wronged and unhappy Stephanie has been
persistently withheld by the members OF
various royal branches with which she Is
connected by birth and marriage. In the
minds of the people, however she mas
become greatly endeared since her widow

Belgium, she was popularity called the
moss rose of Belgium when she came to
Austria as the bride Of the 1ll-starred

On the last day of January, 1889, Europe
was shocked by the news that the Crown
Prince Rudolph had died Violent death'
MANY were the rumors accounting Tor
this terrible tragedy. It is doubtful Wnetn-
car the whole truth will ever be known,
and whether the death was caused by his
own hand or by the act OF another is still
an open question. =
THE MAYERLING TRAGEDY.
What is known is that the crown prince
had a shooting box and bachelors quar-
ters at Mayerling, which Is within drive
of Vienna. On the very night of his death
Rudolph was seen In his box at the I'M
perial opera house in Vienna and drove
late at night to Mayerling. With the
crown prince was staying his equerries
and some friends, among them young
lady, to whom Rudolph seems to have
been much devoted.
Shortly after midnight the prince was
found dead in his room, his skull icing
broken either by a stroke with some blunt
instrument or by pistol ball. In the
house there was also discovered the dead
body Of the young lady in question, the
Baroness Vetschera, killed by revolver
shot. 1t was suggested that the I'M
happy Rudolph had committed suicide,
but indications (the state OF the wound
itself led strongly to a different surmlse.
Various stories were told. Of the two
most generally accepted one made the
tragedy a case Of double suicide; the
other attributed it to the vengeance Of a
brother who, being unable to challenge
the seducer of his sister, owing to his
rank, killed him and also his sister. The
story adds that the murderer was warned
that If he kept out of the empire ne would
not be followed,
However this may be, the emperor Of
Austria behaved as a wise man and a
hero, as he has ever done. OF course, lies
were told to him at first but when he
saw through them he insisted on the
salient facts being made public. The
body of the crown prince lay In state in
Vienna and the imperial family assisted
at his burial. 1t concerned the nation that
he was dead and this the emperor wisely
made known by the public exhibitor of
his corpse. The special circumstances of
his death concerned none but his near
relatives.
