Is THE ADMIRAL TO MARRY
His Name Linked with that of a
Wealthy Washington Widow.

Washington, Oct. 1.-Admiral
Dewey, who was never known to
capitulate to anyone but a woman,
is said now by the gossips to have
surrendered to the charms OF q
widow who has made her home
in Washington for years. Since
his arrival in New York it has
been currently rumored here that
the Admiral is engaged to Mrs.
Hazen, the widow OF Gen. Hazen,
a sister of John r. Mclean, and
daughter of Mrs. Washington Nc
Lean, at whose residence the Ad
mlral will stay while in Washing
ton this week.
1t was to be expected that the
Admiral's name would be linked
with that of some lady, and the
report now circulated in Wash
lngton possibly may have some
foundation. The fact is regarded
as a signpost that the Admiral
has refused all other invitations
of private individuals to be their
guests during his stay here and
accepted Mrs. McLean's. 1t is
said the Admiral and Mrs. Nc
Lean are old friends, but init
mates that the Admiral never
heard of any great friendship be
tween the two until 1t was as.
signed as the reason for the Adj
mirals making his quarters at the
Mclean house on IL street.
Several months ago the Ad-
miral was reported to have been

other despensary sensation was
sprung today after having been u
brewing some time. 1t was the
usual semi annual revelations
with some extra trllls. Commls
sloner Douthlt was Removed for
Cause"
1t was a fierce game while it
lasted and finally Robinson, Miles
and Haselden voted TO remove
Douthit, while Boykin and Win
Jams voted to give him further
show and to 10 more fully into
the case. Then Haselden moved
to make the suspension OF Outzs
permanent, but before action was
taken an adjournment was had.
There was u com mittee appoint
ed to LOOK into the contra band
room, consisting of Haselden and
Robinson. They went right into
things. Their summary made nine
pages and there we're several hun.
dred pages of affidavits bearing
out the summary of the commit
tee. The meat of the report
against Douth,t is, it seems from
the testimony. that under instruc
tions from Com missioner Dou thit
one firms labels were ordered to
be placed on another firms whis
key, and that high grade labels
have been placed on lower brands
of goods.
In this connection Superintend.
ent Bryant testifies: "Yes, l put
up whiskey in bottles with one
firms whlskey with another
firms labels, but it was under in
structions from Commissioner
Douthit."
He further testifies that Lana.
hans labels were placed on the
goods Of the Wilson Distillinp
company.
CAN'T says: "Yes; whlskey is
bottled with one firms label and
with another firms whiskey. I
have never known him to put a
label on whiskey where the liquor
called for by the label was cheap
er than the whiskey actually In
the bottles. We put out one X
corn whiskey with labels of
XXX"
KING testifies that whiskey was
put up last Saturday and the
xxx label was used, but the firm
name Wilson Dlstilling Co." was
struck off.
Earnhart, assistant superin-
tendent, testified: ~ have never
known him to put a label on
whiskey where the label was
cheaper than the whiskey. Have
known him to put on as high az
an xxx label on Grover whiskey
which | have heard Is X goods.
| have never kept a record of
these changes. This has been a
practice during Mr.. Dourhit's ad
ministration. They put up Gro
ver's whiskey Saturday morning
with Wilson labels, but the name
"Wilson" was struck off.

keeper, says: "Grove's whIskey
is classed as X corn whiskey and
the difference in the price of X
and XXX corn to consumers is 81

WILL RESUME BUSINESS.
Norway Savings Bank in Better Financial
Shape than for Years.

Norway. Me. Nov 13.-The troubles
Of the Norway Savings Bank have so
nearly been settled that the institution
is expected to resume business in a
short time Some 50 days ago it was
stated that when +. II. Hayes became
treasurer Of the bank in place of Judge
:. :. StearnS. who had died. he found
an apparent difference of several thou
sand dollars in the balances upon the
books and assets coming into his care.
A trustees meeting was called and the
order obtained from the supreme court
to allow the bank to suspend the tran
saction of business while an examina
ton was made. This examination has
been completed and the State bank eX-
aminer was here. today. making a final
adjustment and putting the institution
into shape to resume business.
The examination has disclosed that
during the little more than five years
that Judge S. S. StearnS was treasurer
there was a deficit of about $4,000. He
had secured the bank by bond Of
$50 900 with 20 bondsmen. These bonds
men, with one of two exceptions. have
made satisfactory settlement with
the bank, each of them paying $446.21.
The few who have not paid have the
matter under consideration.
The trust company which guaran-
teed Judge Stearn's bond during the
past year has paid $500 to the bank
The widow of the late treasurer and
his relatives have paid the bank the
balance of the shortage.
The examination also disclosed an
apparent deficit of $4,000 more which Oc-
CURED during the II years that Judge
Stearns was assistant treasurer of the
bank. This deficit has been settled sat
isfactorily to the bank, which loses
nothing. and will reopen in a few
days in better financial condition than
for many years.

FORMAL NOTICE SERVED.
Fall River Operatives Feel Absolutely Certain
Of Winning Their Point.

Fall River, Mass, Nov. 13.-At an
early hour, this evening, G. c. Rounse-
Vile, secretary of the Manufacturers
Association, received a communication
from Secretary James Whitehead of
the Textile Council, notifying the mill
men of the action of the representa-
tives of the operatives at Sundays
meeting Of the Council. The letter was
substantially the same as the draft Of
the vote given out by the council and
is very formal in its nature. But by
the decision Of the council the manu-
facturers are given until Nov. % to
make reply to the new demand and in
case of a refusal, it calls upon the OPP
cratives to leave their work on the
morning of Dec. II. A proposition by
which the whole matter may be set
tied by arbitration is included in the
communication.
The decision Of the council is the
talk of the City. this evening. 1t would
be regarded by many as a direct threat
Of strike if it We're not for the saving
clause, suggesting arbitration in case
the manufacturers cannot see their
way clear to grant an increase other
wise.
We are so sure of the strength of
our case said a Textile Council dele
gate, tonight, that we had no hesita-
ton in offering TO allow the whole
wage question to be decided by an i'm
partial board of arbitration. We feel
certain of favorable decision from
any arbitration committee, and we will
abide by its decision
Manufacturers are not disposed to
talk much about the latest develop
ment Of the wage situation. They had
not. however. expected such a radical
move on the part of the Textile Coun-
ell. An arbitration committee, many
of them deem to be impracticable as
they say it will be impossible to find
the five disinterested and capable men
necessary to thoroughly consider the
case. Unless the prices of cloth adj
vance sufficiently to give a material
increase in the margin between cotton
and cloth it seems as though, from 4
point of view, they
must stand against any increase in
wages.
