LATEST REPORT PLACES HIM AT
THE HEAD OF A GREAT IN
TERNATIONAL BANK
VANDERBILT TO BE WITH HIM
Washington Friends Have Not Heard
of Any Plans for Future Employ
ment Being Made by Re-
firing Secretary
WAS FORCED OUT OF CABINET


Special to The Globe.
CHICAGO, Jan. PA new report as to
the future occupation of Secretary Of the
treasury Lyman J. Gage when he re-
tires from that office, was current in
Chicago banking circles today. 1t was
to the effect that Mr.. Gage would make
his headquarters in New York, and to-
gether with his former assistant and pro-
tege, Frank A. Vanderlip, would start an
international banking institution in
Gotham.
The establishment of an international
exchange has long been one of Secre-
tary Cages pet projects, and the fact
that Mr.. Vanderlip has made extended
trips to Europe for the National City
bank, of New York, makes the report all
the more significant. 1t is rumored that
Mr.. Gage will first take a two months
vacation upon retiring from office, and
that he will then form his Eastern part.
nership.
The report from the East that Secretary
Gage was to become the head of Chi
cago banking institution finds but little
credence in Lasalle street. Most Of the
bankers say that Mr.. Gage would never
make such a move.

.MISSMILLER LOSTFLESH
SUES FAITHLESS LOVER FOR
$166.66 PER POUND
Secured Her Promise to Marry Him
in 1898, but His Love Grew
Cold and the Lady Was
Greatly Worried.
Special to The GIobe.

CHICAGO, Jan. miss Lizzie Miller
has lost thirty pounds of flesh because
of the failure Of Henry J. Huening to
marry her. Each pound is worth Sl66 sc,
to say nothing of the bleeding heart,
and hence Miss Miller is suing Mr..
Huening for breach of promise in the
sum of $1,000 The suit was called to-
day before Judge Patton, sitting in the
criminal court building.
Miss Lizzie is a good-looking young
woman-perhaps twenty-five years OF
age-who still fills out her gown quite
comfortably in spite of the missing lnir-
ty pounds. She lives with her parents
in Burlington, Wis. in which village she
met Mr.. Huening away back in 1893. lie
is a member of a contracting firm in
this city. He spent some time in L--r-
lington in that year, and afterward n
tinued to meet Miss Lizzie at intervals.
On Aug. Is, 1898, as set forth in the dec
laration, she "did then and there prom
ise to marry him." Unfortunately, Mr..
Huening's love grew cold. He h-~ly
ceased to write to his flancee or to gee
her and married, hence the loss of lesh
and the suit.

HAS MADE NO PLANS YET.
Retiring Secretary Has Many Offers
of Positions.
FROM THE GLOBE BUREAU,
Washington ID. c.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-Secretary Ly-
man ]. Gage has carefully refrained
from discussing his plans for the future.
The reason is very good one namely,
they have not yet been made. All kinds
of reports have gone out, to the effect
that he would go to New York to take
charge of huge bank to be formed; and
that he would go to Chicago to be the
head of one of the big institutions there.
Neither of these reports has any sub
stantial basis. The fact is Mr.. Gage has
been offered several things which to
many men would seem f1attering; but none
of them is just what he wants. He has
them under consideration, and will re-
serve judgment for at least a month,
during which time he will remain where
he is. After his successor comes there
will be a few days when Mr.. Gage will
stay around to assist Mr.. Shaw in start
ing his new labors
Whatever may be said to the contrary,
the retirement of Mr.. Gage is voluntary
only in the sense that he did not choose
to remain in an office for which he would
be held accountable but the administra-
tion of which was to be interfered
with, and taken out of his hands.

DESTROYERS.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2.-According to bac-
teriologists of the American Society OF
Naturalists, some kinds Of germs ave
such an antipathy for water that they
actually commit suicide to escape the
fluid. AT today's meeting of the society
it was proclaimed as an established fact
that water is in itself an agent deadly
to many kinds of germs, and that milk
also has destructive attributes within
itself. 1t is also said that the result
of the suicide of the bacteria m water
is the publication of water. The waste
substances thrown off by the life pro-
cesses of the germs form, when in So
luton, poisons which destroy the germs
that produced them.

CLINTON, Iowa, Jan. 2.-F. L. White,
st. Louis travelling man, while at a
hotel in this city, saw his wife seated at
the dining room table with J. L. Jordan,
Chicago drummer. Going to the hotel
register he saw written there the name
OF ]. L. Jordan and wife, White was so
enraged that he told the landlord to call
for the police, otherwise he would kill
Jordan in his rage
The chief of police was summoned, but
refused to arrest Jordan unless he also
had warrant for the woman's arrest.
White objected to this and said he would
settle with Jordan. He found the two in
the parlor and administered such a beat
ing to Jordan that it was necessary for
a physician to work for an hour over the
injured man.
Soon after the encounter White and his
wife left the city, and Jordan departed
in the afternoon. White said he did not
blame his wife for her actions as Jordan
was hypnotist and had her under his
evil influence.

LODGE is DISLIKED.
Alleged That He Is Becoming Too
PresUmptuOus.
FROM THE GLOBE BUREAU,

WASHINGTON, Jan. - Senator
Lodge, Of Massachusetts, is becoming
a disturbing element on account of his
intimacy with the president. While the
senator is respected by his colleagues as
a man of learning and ability, he is not
popular with a good many of them, ana
they are inclined to resent the seeming
effort of the president to make Lodge
his mouthpiece in the senate.
No protest was made when he was
asked to take charge of the canal treaty.
but there are indications that if an at
tempt be made to continue him as the
presidents personal representative at
the capitol there will be objection.

The clock is never taken apart for re-

The flowers are selected from a great
assortment, and more than 5000 sepa-
rate plants are required to completely
cover the base. These are arranged with
greatest care, so that the colors will he in
