New York, Feb. 24.-The inquest in
the Adams poisoning case was contin-

than any of the previous hearings.
Practically nothing tending to show
light upon the murder of Mrs. Adams

was revealed. The day was almost ell
tirely devoted to direct or implied de-
malls of testimony offered by Cornish.
MoIneux was the principal hi this re-

BTsMARCK's BEST MONUMENT.

With the single exception of Bismarck Autobiography, the greatest succf ever achieved by any publication in Germany was pamphlet by Professor Quidde, en- titled ''Caligula." This pamphlet, had, however. from 8 publishers point of view, everything in it's favor. Its very title savored of the sensational, and the German reading-public knew beforehand "Caligula" was in reality comparison of the insane Roman Emperor with the present Kaiser.
 Put on sale at the extremely low price of ten cents, it took the pamphlet eigh. teen months to sell 800, ,00O copies.
 To know how far, comparatively speaking, sthe sale of Bismarck exceeds that of "Caligula, it is only necessary to know that SIS, 1000 copies of the former had been ordered before the book was published. The fact, too, that the price Of the Iron Chancellor's autobiographv was twenty marks, or nearly fifty times the cost of "Caligula," makes the con- parison all the more striking. When a German parts with twenty marks he wants run for his money, and also must know all there is to know about a book before he buys it. Itis self-evident. then, that the German people have accepted
