former employers wife, by sending her
a box of poisoned candy, has been

ter Fora Gladys Horlocker, of New
York 1t has been rumored here that
Miss Horlocker's attorneys would not
bring her back, as they intended to
take advantage of some legal techni-
cality and thus end the case. John NJ.

said that no such move had been at
tempted, and Furthermore. Miss Hor-
Hooker is in the city ready to appear
before court and sign the new bond,
after which she would go her own way.
Her appearance in court was merely
a formal procedure for the purpose OF
renewing the bond to arrange that the

vail that Dreyfus was indeed a spy. but

many papers,
An interesting outcome OF the case Is
the fact that the emperor. who has been
deeply stirred by the revelations made
at Rennes of the espionage system be-
tween France and Germany, of the ex-
tent and elaborateness of which he has
hitherto been ignorant, has instructed
Gen. Won Hahnke, chief of his private
military cabinet, to thoroughly investi-
gate how and to what extent the sys-
TEN can be abolished or reduced to a
minimum. He also instructed Gen. Won
Hahnke to ascertain If it were possible
for Germany to take the initiative in
abolishing extra territoriality for at
taches and other members Of the en-
bassies, thus abolishing the most
heinous and dangerous form of espion-
age. It is understood that Gen. Won
Hahnke has reported that 1t is impossi-
bic for one state, especially military
one, to do this alone.
The government last week exerted
strong pressure to induce German in
dustry and commerce to abandon all
movements against the Paris exposi-
ton Chief Commissioner Richter sent a
note to all leaders of the movement,
giving strong reasons why it would be
unwise for Germany and injurious to
her interests not to appear as strong as
possible in Paris in 1900. This and 9th
err facts have had effect and it may be
said that the anti-exposition movement
in Germany is entirely dead.

Fall Mail Orders

There are many things you cannot
buy at home and you have been in the
habit Of sending away for them. Per-
haps you have been sending to US, per-
haps elsewhere. Those who are trad
ing here by mail are satisfied with the
service and the prices. When anything
turns up that may possibly give rise to
q just complaint they know that we
are just as prompt to make 1T right,
as we are to get their orders. No one
is permitted to retain an article from
our stock if it don't look to them as 1T
comes from their package exactly as
they expected. That's one reason our
mail order list is growing. Another is
that no woman can send to Chicago
and get better goods or the same quail
ity of goods at so low a price as she
can buy at Younkers'.
IF YOU have been sending elsewhere
for your goods, we invite you to give
our superb new stocks trial. Com
mence on the dress goods and see how
good dress you can get here for any
price you desire to pay. The 1899 dis
play of dress goods here is better thar
it ever was before. 1t is a matches
stock, and it would have been a grea
disappointment to our customers, a.
well as bad business policy, had W,
failed to open these goods until W.

MISS GRANT Welded.
Becomes the Princess Cantacuzene
by Ritual of the Russian Church.

Newport, r. l., Sept 25.-In the eyes
of the law-more sacredly, in the eyes
of the church-Julia Dent Grant last
night became the Princess Cantacuzene.
Through the ritual of the Russian
church she was as inevitably bound to
her betrothed as any ceremonial could
make her.
Today's marriage was tribute to
her faith. In its passages no clause, no
bond exists that can bind her closer tc
the man with whom last night she
pledged her faith, for the ceremony was
exact and absolute.
A special altar had been raised in the
parlor by Father Hotovitsky and his
assistant. After the room had been for
nally consecrated at half past O'Clock
the bride appeared at the head of the
grand staircase leaning on the arm OF
her brother, Ulysses S. Grant III.
Al the altar, before which stood the
Russian priest, waited Prince Cantacu-
zene, clad in the full uniform of the
| ehevaiier garb.
The brides dress was severely cut.
| and was a simple gown of the richest
| white satin, with sweeping train and
veil of tulle She carried a bouquet OF
steppanotis and lilies of the valley anc
| wore the gifts of the bridegroom--a cor
/ sage ornament of diamonds and ename
and rope of pearls.

1cnn Records Broken.
New York, Sept. 25-The annual fall
games given by the New York Athletic
Club. held at Traver's Island Saturday,
four records, one of which was the
worlds record and the other three
American, were collapsed. p. c. Schaef-
fer. of the New York Athletic Club,
won the 100 yard, the 220 yard and the
440 yard aquatic events, and in each
made new record. His time for 100
yards, 1908 3-5, beats the old American
record held by A. T. Kenney, of Aus
ftralia, while he was at the University
of Pennsylvania, by one second. In the
go yards swim Schaeffer clipped four
teen seconds off the record held by Har-
ry Reeder, of the knickerbocker Ath-
letic Club and in the 440 yards contest
he covered the distance in two and
three fifth seconds less time than that
made by DIR. Paul Neumann, OF the Chi
cago Athletic Association.
John Flanagan threw the hammer l6t
feet and inches. breaking the worlds
record by two feet and six inches. Elan
agan was not satisfied with this and
flung the hammer 167 feet, 8 inches, thu:
beating the record twice in one day.

Germany Regards War as Certainty,
but VIII Remain Neutral.

Berlin. Sept. 25-.An outbreak of war
in the Transyaal is regarded here as
question of but few days. or. at the
most, of weeks. The whole press de-
voted considerable space To the matter.
Neither the attitude If the people or the
press has changed materially Without
exec ption they disapprove Of such war
and blame Great Britain for badgering
the rransvaal beyond endurance. The
Liberal press also blames the Transvaal
for its Illogical stand in first sanctioning
Great Britain's attempts at interfer-
ence in its internal affairs and then re-
jecting such attempts and making
thereof a casus belii. The whole con-
sentative. jingo anti-Semite. agrarian,
ultra -nonta.ne and centrist press sides
With the Beers. In spite of the criti-
lcisms many of which are most bitter,
the government has not altered its
views or attitude. This is evident from
the inspired utteranees of the govern
I ment press.
A foreign Office official here said to the
Associated Press: "Of course. it is in no
sense TO our interest to have England
land the Transvaal 90 to war. That lit
itle Boer nation Will finally succumb and
/
lis only too likely that this will diminish

tests there, for our trade with the Boel
states is increasing and is only next tc
that of England. Other interests vii
lalso be jeopardized or injured in such {
struggle. Still, there is no occasion anC
no political or moral right for us to in
Iterfere. SO long as our undoubted right.
are respected by the belligerenst W.
shall rot Interfere"
i The informant refused to say whethe
lat was distinct, formal understanding
with Great Britain, or whether tn
agreement of year ago on the subjec
of South Africa included German neu
trality in the event of war with TIL
Transvaal.
Experts are beginning to speculate OF
the probable outcome of the war an
! the losses on both sides. Gen. Vol
Boguslawsky. military writer of note
: predicts that the British will sustain
: enormous losses in the Transvaal, ow
ing mainly TO the inferority of their of
ficers and their inability to understan
or apply modern tactics.
The Dreyfus excitement has Target
subsidized here since the pardon, thong

wholly unsatisfactory. In military an

Ii is almost sacrlege to lay bare to-
the world the scenes of the family re-

4 for five years.
The little ones came from Paris IL.

made complete the happy family re-
union.
1t was a charming picture that was
presented to the privileged callers
I They saw Dreyfus seated on large
! wicker chair in a glass inclosed shelter
4 in front of the house, his children at his
/ knees and Nine. Dreyfus by his side,
while gathered around him were
Matthew Dreyfus and various other
/ members OF the Nalabregue and Hada-

Isouthern France. The sun poured

HORSES AND MULES.
Their Comparative Value and Csush of
Decline In Prices

Decline In Prices
At the present time, taking the whole
country, the average value of horse
is $35, and taking the who'll country
except the New England states, where
mules are very few in number, the
value OF a mule is $42. Mules are
worth more than horses-a pecuniary
degradation for the prince OF ami
mails" and a marked distinction for the
patient, tumble, long-suf1ering, I'M
musical, American mule, the butt OF
the paragrapher, the accepted type OF
stolidity, and the time-wasting quad
ruped Of many parts of the country.
The decline in the value of the horse
compared to the mule is due TO va
riety of causes, the first and most I'M
portant of which is that the demand
for higher-rriced horses has vislply
diminished, while the horse OF all work
of the farm and of the highway re-
mains in great demand. Again, horses
have already been in largest demand
in level parts of the country. 1t Is
in these that the use of mechanical
contrivances has become more general,
while mules, in greatest demand III
billy regions, remain In demand III
these. A final reason for the greater
average value of mules compared Win
horses is to be found in the question
Of forage. A horse is very much more
expensive to maintain than mule, anu,
moreover. horses are more numerous,
relatively, in those parts OF the coun-
try in which the climate is rigorous
and severe than in the milder regions
of the country. in which mules are
cheaply housed and cheaply fed. In
the state Of Minnesota, for instance,
there were at the time of the last count
400 900 horses and only S,50O mules
and Minnesota is confessedly one OF
the states in which winters are very
severe. In South Carolina, on the 9TH
er hand, there were on Jan. l, oo,ooO
horses and 100000 mules, and in Geor-
gia there were 10000 horses and 1861
900 mules.
First among the states of the coun-
try in the number of mules is Texas,
next comes Missouri, and then Geor-
gia and Tennessee. California mas
a considerable number, and Kansas
and Arkansas large number, too. Tne
leading states for horses in respect 10
their total number and the hay and
oat crops to maintain them are Illinois
and Iowa. Two states which have, rel
atively no mules to speak Of when
compared with the number OF horses
are New York and Michigan. Penn
sylvania, because of its coal and iron
mining industries, has nearly ten times
as many mules as New York.-Sun-
