sponsIble and Identified Hin.

New York, Feb. 1s.-Flowers placed on
the grave of Walter B. shipman. in
Greenwood cemetery, for several weeks
have beenruthlessly tornin small bits and
the pieces stamped into the ground. No ac-
tion has been taken IN the matter, either by
the cemetery authorities, the Shipman
family of Miss Marjorie l.. Heath. the
young woman who complains that her of
ferings have been despoiled.
Stirred beyond her ability TO control
her feelings, the young woman today will
make formal complaint 10 the ceme-
terry authorities and will give 10 them the
names OF the persons whom she believes
TO be the oesecrators OF the grave. She
has personally seen her floral offerings
mutilated. To further strengthen her ac-
cusation against the destroyers. Miss
Heath had a young man watch the grave
in her company. and he will join in the
complaint
Walter B. Shipman died Dec 2S. 1901,
at 123 ST. Johns place, Brooklyn after
an iilncss lasting about "A month. Within
a week after he had died, his brother,
Edward r.. Shipman swore out a warrant
for the arrest OF Miss Marjorie l.. Heath,
a young woman at one time employed in
the stock brokerage house OF c. /. Hud-
son & Co.
Miss Heath was accused of having con-
verted 20 her own use ten shares of the
common stock OF the Atchison, Topeka *
Sante Fe Railroad company, valued at
Sl050. Ii was alleged that the stock was
the property of Walter B. Shipman. and
was given 10 the young woman 10 be
transferred on the books OF the company.
When arraigned in court, Miss Heath
pleaded not guilty and was held for the
grand. jury. The grand jury failed TO in
dict the young woman, but a civil action
for the recovery OF the shares OF stock
is still pending.
AT the time of her arrest Miss Heath
declared she was engaged 10 Walter Ship
man. That his brother vchemently de-
MED but the report was generally credit
ed by the young woman's friends. Miss
Heath resided i'm a tastefully furnished
fiat at 735 Carroll street. and here Mr..
Shpman before his death was frequent
and welcome visitor.
Miss Heath has placed flowers on Ship
mans grave every Sunday since his buri-
al Each week she found her previous
Offering destroyed. Yesterday she. left a
bunch OF roses and lilies OF the valley.
Then. in company with a young man, she
waited behind a nearby monument
Soon a private carriage drove close to
the Shipman plot and stopped. A man
alighted and went directly 10 Wal
ter Shipmans grave. He tore TO pieces
the flowers the young woman had placed
there. then trampled the blossoms into
the earth. Hastily entering his carriage,
he then drove away. Miss Heath de-
clared last night that she knew the van
dal and would end at all costs the desecra-
fion OF the grave.

TWO INJURED.
Kellogg Sanitarium at Battle
Creek Destroyed.

Battle Greek, Mich. Feb 1S-The great
Kellogg Sanitarium was entirely destroy
ed by fire early today. The main build
ing is entirely gone and the hospital is
now a fire Four hundred patients were
taken out safely.
But two accidents occurred during the
removal of the patients. one woman and
a girl names unknown, became fright
ened and jumped from third story win
dows
Both have broken legs. The origin OF
the FIRE is unknown.
The main building which has been de-
Stroyed was 3l2 by 100 feet and six sto-
ries high. The loss will be at least $780,
900.
AS soon as the fire was discovered
watchmen ran through the corridors
arousing the sleeping patients on each
OF the six floors. Many OF them were un-
able to help themselves and were carried
to places of safety by the nurses. The
corridors filed with smoke very rap
idly and about half Of the inmates OF the
building were forced TO come down the
fire escapes.
The sanitarium stood on a hill and the
water pressure was low. therefore the
water supply was insufficient. Both
the main building and the hospital are
now I'm ruins. IL Is almost miraculous
that none OF the patients lost their lives
The loss will bc about 0,OO0 according
20 latest estimates,

These aphorisms are pointed out to
young men by John Santa Rosa. who
yesterday morning had his twenty-three-
year-old wife arraigned In the Harlem
court on charge of bigamy.
Magistrate zeller after hearing both
sides OF the case. held the young woman
and Louis Kory, husband No. 2. in $500
bail for examination.
Santa Rosa, who is a blacksmith's ap-
prentice. but withal a studious Young
man. met Miss Sadie Ellis at the Church

friend OF Santa Rosa, took board with

After the wife left TO go to her father
II was noticed that Kory paid frequent
visits 10 her there.
Santa Rosa bsgged his wife to return,
but she refused. Then his friend kory
abandoned him. AT the home of I<orys
parents IL was learned that kory had
been married and was living at No III
East Eighty-third street.
Investigation proved that Kory had
been married by Alderman Leopold Har-
burger TO Santa Rosas wife on Feb 5.
Santa Rosa appealed TO Capt. Cannon and
detectives arrested Kory and the woman.
Santa Rosa is a very conscientious and
hard-working young man of very good
habits. He was connected with the Engi-
ngers' corps at Willets Point. from which
he received an honorable discharge with
very good character.
Thinking he might touch the heart or
his wife he begged her TO take minia-

as she was being led to a cell, but he re-
ceiVed only a sneer for his trouble.
In court yesterday Kory was repre-
sented by a lawyer, who declared his
client did not know he was marrying u
woman who had n husband living and
that, as a matter of fact, kory was
slightly demented.

OUR FOREIGN COMMERCE
DURING THE YEAR 1901.

Washington. Feb. 1S-The important
commerce of the United States In 1901.
showing the pace at which this country
ran during the last calendar year in the
great race for supremacy in trade in the
worlds markets, has been made public
by Frederic Emery, chief OF the bureau
Of foreign commerce of the state de-
partment.
1t is stated that the commercial reports
OF our diplomatic and consular officers
last year record continued growth I'm the
sales of many lines OF manufactures from
the United States In foreign markets and
the increase OF the general concern
throughout Europe as TO the possible re-
suits Of our Industrial competition.
Although the total OF our exports COM
piled by the treasury department shows
a considerable falling off i'm the total value
OF manufactured goods sent abroad it
is stated there seems TO be "a steady and
uninterrupted spread in the popularity OF
what may be termed American novel
ties" all over Europe.
BY the word novelties are meant not
only labor saving implements and ma
chinery which are strange TO most Eu-
ropeans. but great variety OF articles
of merchandise. all of which possess dis
tingushed points Of excellence and rela-
tive cheapness. new To Europe. which
commend them to purchasers there I'm
preference to similar articles OF home
manufacture
In other words while the aggregate OF
our exports of manufactured goods has
shrunk, the variety OF our sales in Eu-
rope is being extended and the territory
upon which they are encroached is be-
ing steadily enlarged.
striking example of this is i'm Austria
Hungary, where imports from the United
States are increasing rapidly. That coun-
try originated the idea of a European
combination against America in trade.
and there the hostility of the Industrial
classes is most pronounced. The United
States again heads the list of countries
selling In Germany. and is causing the
economists OF that nation much concern.
Indeed, IT is pointed out this same con-
