DIED ON HER HONEYMOON.
Bride of Month Succumbs Suddenly
to Pneumonia

Bowed down with grief, a sorrowful lit
lie party Left the Pennsylvania station
yesterday afternoon on its way to a New
Jersey home that has been bereft of its
most cherished member.
Just a month ago, accompanied by we'll
wishes of the whole little village, Mr.
and Mrs. Archer c. Gibbons left Orange
n. j., bride and a groom. Last night
Mr.. Gibbons returned 10 the home of his
fathers a broken-hearted man. His wife
had succumbed to the ravages of pneu
monia two days before.
The young couple had been prominent
members of the most fashionable set in
Orange. ard the marriage had been long
looked forward to by their friends. After
the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs. Gibbons left
for protracted honeymoon. during which
it was their intention to visit many of the
principal cities of the country.
About two weeks after they left home
Mrs. Gibbons contracted a slight cold. but
no Importance was attached to the fact
by the happy bride and groom. She re-
ceived medical attendance and appeared
to be rapidly recovering when they ar
rived in Washington about a week ago.
From then on Mrs. Gibbons condition
steadily grew worse, and three days ago
her parents. Mr.. and Mrs. Cornelius Gar
rabrant. were sent for. Mr.. Gibbons also
notified his father and the parents of the
young couple Immediately left for Wash
ington They arrived just before the
end

PLATE PRINTERS LEAGUE.
New Torks Won Three Games From
Philadelphia.

BY winning three games from the Phil
adelphias last night, the New Yorks be-
came tied with St. Louis for third place
in the Plate Printers Bowling League
championship games. The games were
bowled on the Golden Eagle alleys, and
were witnessed by a large crowd of fol-
lowers of the sport.
Both teams showed decidedly better
bowling than heretofore, and the first two
games we're of the steady order, no very
high totals being scored, but in the LIST
game, the New Yorks suddenly develop ed
a streak of high class bowling that would
have done credit to a veteran league team.
The total was SOS, and this is high total
for this league, and new record for It.
Kieso and Stanton were in specially
good form and but for several bad splits,
which both suffered. their averages would
have been in the sixties. Stanton bowled
n clean score in the last game, and led
the evening with 156 average and 1SS
best single score. kieso came Iext with
154 average. Several difficult spares were
made. Stanton had one of $40; Lord,
ST. and Fitzpatrick, go.

THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Bettcr buying in Wheat and n New
Corn Demand.

CHICAGO, Feb. 25.-There was rather
better buying this morning in wheat,
sufficient demand existing to put the
early price up from 755sc TO 76hc. Be-
fore the first hour was over the price re-
acted TO 1880, and shortly after noon
picked up TO 75c. The bulk of the buying
was in the way OF short covering, although
there was reported some strong interests
on the long side.
Corn-The New England demand for
corn was said to be better than for sever
al months, and there were signs of sub
stantial buying. The opening price ON
grain was 59Ac to $3.50, with sales re-
ported as low as 591sc, but from this point
there was a fairly steady advance to
59&.c.
Oats-The situation in oats was consid
erably improved, the trade in September
and January being considerably larger.
Contract stocks are now 49,, 900 bushels,
a decrease of $4,000 bushels. The May
price ran up from 4174c to 422sc.
Provisicns-The provision list was
steady and showed no feature. There was
a little commission house buying. Only
81 goo hogs were received today. Esti-
mates Tor tomorrow, $1,000. Cattle
steady; receipts, 5000. Sheep strong; re-
ceipts, $4,000.

WHEAT
THE COTTON MARKET.
Closing ut n Sigh. Decline Over
Monday Night.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-The cotton mar
ket continued quiet today. with the tone
irregular. Fluctuations were confined
within range of to points from last
nights closing. This represented the
maximum decline established in the early
trading, but the market recovered all of it
later.
The decline was on a continuance of
yesterdays scattered liquidation, princi-
pally by tired local holders and selling
by commission houses and local specula-
tors caused by the disappointing action of
the market the last few days with the fall
ing off in outside demand and local bull
support and the sentimental influence OF
Liverpool's apathy and the continued
heavy receipts.
Most of the selling which caused the
early decline today was from scattering
commission houses.
The market closed steady, with quota
tions lower to 3 higher as compared
with yesterdays closing prices.

negroes who visited the place. Brown had
his hands more than full. the evening

dispute between his guests. and it was
while SO engaged that he became in
volved in an alteration which led to the
cutting.
Morgan fed after having cut Brown.

police. Detectives Muller and Baur got
out of bed to hunt him, and searched
through ''Bloodfield." but the fugitive was
still free at l o'clock this morning
