A New Year

Is rapidly approaching, and again it
Is my privilege and very great pleasure
to express to all officers and employees,
personal thanks, and Acknowledgements
for the faithful, intelligent and efficient
service rendered during the year about
to close, services which have produced
results, making the year, ending De-
cember, 31st, 1899, the most successful
in the entire history of the Seaboard
Air Line.
The outlook Is encouraging. The
"Seaboard" is nquestionably to become
in the very near future, system of
vast Importance. It's mileage will bo
largely increased. The principal cities
Of the South will be reached by it, and
upon the basis OF shorter mileage
than at present exists by other routes.
That our renewed efforts in behalf OF
the greater interests to be served may
prove even more successsul, II possible
in the future, than in the past, Is my
| most sincere wish. Let us strive for
it's accomplishment.
Permit me again to express, ION be.
half Of our President, as we'll as my.
self,) the hope that the Now Year may
prove most prosperous to all, including
those dear to you, in the myriad homes
made glad by your smiles, and digni.
| fed by your toll.
With every good wish,
Yours faithfully,
T.. ST. JOHN,
Vicc-President and General Mgr.

MORE SMALLPOX.
Two Additional Cases 0iscov-
cred by the Medical Author
ities at Midd|eboro, Mass.

Middleboro. Mass, June 16.-The
medical authorities have discovered
two cases OF small pox in addition 10
the one found yesterday. The two Ia
test victims are children of John Hool-
ey, at whose boarding house James Nc
Carthy. the first patient was found.
DR.. Morse, assistant of DR.. Abbott of
the state board of he8th. who came
here last night in response to a sum-
mons from the local board, has dag
nosed the cases as small pox, but of
mild kind. The Hooleys have been at
tending the west end school regularly
and today when the news became
known that they had been seized by the
disease great alarm was felt. 1t ap-
peared also today that several men who
board at the Hooley House went in and
out yesterday in spite OF the restric-
tions placed by the authorities. Thi
has added to the fear of the neighbors.
The investigation OF the authorities
has shown that transient lodger
stayed at the Hooley house about two
weeks ago and that he occupied the
room with Mccarthy. He left next day.
III Is now believed that the man was
Theophile Ouilette, member OF the
FANNY In which smallpox was discov-
cred I'm Fall River. who disappeared
from that place about two weeks since.
The officials think that this accounts
for the presence OF the disease here.

New York, June 16.-William J. Koch

"I believe every man is bound to
come 10 the end OF his rope in time. and
he should have one ready. l am simply
preparing myself"
one day Mrs. Koehler took the rope
from his pocket and hid Il. but had 20
return IL to him to prevent n quarrel.
Yesterday he appeared even more
cheerful and good natured than usual.
To nearly all OF his customers he made
some humorous aflusion To the rope
he had coiled up in his pocket. even
going about the store part Of the time
with Il hanging loosely about his neck.
About 6 O'Clock he called his wife to
him and said:

Alleges She Performed Services for Which
Remuneration Was Promised.
GREAT SECRECY ABOUT THE CASE.
Widow Vigorously Opposes The Claim I is Validity
SAID p 8, Supported By Lstlss Written
By Senator BrIc, TO The plaintiff.

New York, June 16.--Mrs. Mabel
Clarke has sued Mrs. Catherine Olivia
Brice, widow OF the late Senator CAL
win $. Brice, for $4,000. Mrs. Brice Is
sued as the Administrative of her hus-
bands estate, and the sum which Mrs.
Clarke asks represents the expectations
she had OF Senator Brice's viii. she
declares the millionaire senator had
promised to remember her handsomely.
re died without leaving any will.
Although the suit was instituted near
ly month ago the fact only became
known yesterday when Justice Bischon
granted an order striking out portion
of the defence set up by counsed for
Mrs. Brice. Mrs. Clarke is represented
by Howe & Hummel. and the Brice
estate by Cary & Whitridge.
Mrs. Clarke Is a strikingly beautiful
woman. just past thirty. who dresses
IN the best OF style.She has spent much
of her time during the past several
years at the Waldorf -Astoria.S She lives
in apparent luxury, and has many
friends. she also visits Washington
occasionally.
Mrs. Clarke says that she knew SEN
ator Brice intimately for thirteen years.
lie was close personal friend, and she
says that he promised her that he
would leave her $50, 900 in his will This
promise, sne says, was often made, and
she considered IL a binding agreement.
Tnls bequest, il is claimed. was To De
made in consideration OF certain SER
vices which she performed for Senator
Brice. IA
She was much disappointed when Sem
ator Brice died somewhat suddenly in
1898 leaving no will. She consulted
Howe & HummeI regarding her alleged
agreement with Senator Brice, and this
firm commenced efforts TO make a set
tlement. These efforts failed and the
suit was brought. The complaint IN
the case was diligently kept from the
public. as was the answer. The COM
plant contains quite a number OF let
ters alleged TO have been written by
Senator Brice to Mrs. Clarke and which,
II Is said. support her story.
Cary & Whitridge filed an answer to
Mrs. clarke's suit few days ago. This
answer denied the existence OF any
agreement between Senator Brice and
Mrs Clarke, and as second defence
declared that II such an agreement had
ever existed IL was verbal and illegal.
The statute OF limitations was also set
up as a partial defence, and there was
a general denial OF Mrs. Clarke's claim
A motion was made before Justice
Bischoff in chambers few days ago to
strike out a portion of the answer AZ
frivolous. This motion was granted
yesterday.
Mrs. Clarke is living in the SCHUYLER
fashionable apartment house in West
Forty-fifth street, near Fifth avenue.
