Incline.

Tuesday evening about dusk, dirt
wagon and team of horses slid down
the steep bank of the driveway just
east of Assembly hall, and the driver
was nearly precipitated into the canal.
The outfit was the property of Chas.
Zimmerman and was being driven
by James Brannon.
The incline driveway is narrow and
the banks on both sides are very steep.
Brannon was returning up the hill
with an empty wagon, when one of
his horses fell and started to slide
down the steep bank, pulling the other
horse and wagon down.
When they had settled themselves at
the bottom, the driver attempted to
make the horses pull the wagon out
again. ibis they were unable to DO,

WELLs-RICHARDsoN.
Lieutenant of Army Weeds Daughter
 of Congressman.

Huntsville. Sept. 2o.-Special) )-Lieu- tenant William s. Wells of the United States army. and Miss Annie Richardson, daughter of Congressman William Rich- ardson, went to the parsonage of the First Methodist Church late last night and were married by Rev. J. H. Mccoy. The couple have been sweethearts sev- eral months and at first their marriage was opposed by Judge Richarson. He realized that his opposition would avail nothing, and few days ago gave his consent. Relatives as we'll as friends were surprised when the fact of the mar riage became known today. The cause of the haste was the receipt of orders by Lieutenant Wells to join his regiment. which is stationed in Arizona.
 The bride is the third daughter of Con- gressman Richardson, and made her de- but in Washington society last winter under the chaperonage of Mrs. John H. Bankhead. In Huntsville, she was the most popular belle in society. Lieutenant Wells is former resident of South Da- kota. In. 1898 he went from here as a second lieutenant in the 3rd Alabama infantry. Later he was commissioned in the army of the Philippines as a lieuten- ant and returned home 8 captain after serving two years.

THE MORM0N'S GRANDSON
Writes Police That He Has
 Committed Suicide.
Trunk Shipped from New York Opened by Chicago Police and Found to Contain Clothing
 of the Dead Woman.

New York, Sept. 20-The energies of the whole detective force of New York are now concentrated on the task of run ming down Hooper Young, the grandson of the great Mormon prophet, Brigham Young, who is believed to be the mur- derer of Mrs. Annie Pulitzer. whose body was found Thursday morning in the Nor ris Canal, near Jersey City, In this quest, the authorities have the co-opera- ton of every city and town in the coun- try, to all of which full descriptions of the fugitive has been telegraphed.
 That Young may have committed sui eide was suggested by note received by Captain Titus late today. The envelope contained a single sheet of rough brown paper on which was written
 Search in vain. Have killed myself.
 I'll. Young"
 The postmark showed that the letter had been mailed at the general postoftice in this city shortly before noon. The po- lice are disposed to believe that Young wrote the note.
 Another important link in the chain of evidence connecting Young with the mur- der was supplied when a dispatch was
 
 police had opened the trunk shipped by Young and had found in it the dead wo7 mans clothing, a memorandum book con- taining the name of William Hooper Young and a pawn ticket showing that a pair of diamond earrings had been pledged at a pawn shop in Park Row, this city, Wednesday last. by man who gave the name of .Stiner."
 Prior to the receipt of this dispatch a central office detective had found a pair of earrings pledged in the same shop and under the same name. The person who pledged them gave an address Tn Harlem which proved to be fictitious.
 Joe Politzer identified the earrings as those worn by his wife.
 Captain Titus received tonight dis patch from Captain O'Neiil q" Chicago saying that he had shippedStha trunk-to New York. and that it contained in ad- dition to the articles previously mention ed some articles of male attire and dirk smeared with blood.
 The inquest will he held In Jersey City an Wednesday. The body of Mrs Pulitz- CT will be delivered on Monday.

 we need to keep steadily in mind the fact that besides the tangible prop erty in each corporation there lies behind the spirit which brings it success and in the case of each very successful corpo- ration this is usually the spirit or some one or set of men.

Reading. Pa, Sept. 2o.-The Philadei- phia and Reading Company's shipments of anthracite coal through this city amounted to fully 4,5oO tons mostly mined recently in the west end of Schuylkill County.
 The nineteenth week of the miner strike ended today and still there is no settlement in sight .Disinterested parties now believe the miners strike history Will repeat itself and that the present struggle will go the six months limit as did the big strike of 1877. At the present time both sides are evidently as determined as ever and all the prophecies as to the duration of the strike having failed, the people are settling down to the belief that the battle must be fought to finish.

Remedy Through Law.

'Mlthout the adoption or a constltu- tiOnal amendment my belief is that good deal can be done by law It is difficult to say exactly how much, because ex- perience has taught us that in dealing with these subjects, where the lines divid- ing the rights and duties of the States and of the nation are in doubt, ii has some times been difficult for Congress to fore cast the action of the court upon it's les islatlon.
 Such legislation (whether ohtdinahle now or obtainable only after a constitu- tional amendment should provide for reasonable supervision, the most promi- nent feature of which at first should be publicity: that is the making public both to the government officials and to the people at large the essential facts in which the public is concerned This would give us exact knowledge of many points which now are not only in doubt, but the sub jects of fierce controversy, Moreover, the mere fact of the publicity would cure some very grave evils, for the light Of day is a deterrent to wrong doing. It would doubtless disclose other evils with which for the time being we could devise no way to grapple Finally it would disclose others which could be applied with and cured by further legislative &C., ton.

CITY MARKETS ACTIVE
LOCAL TRADE IN GOOD VOLUME AND
IN EXCELLENT TONE.
Price Changes Few and UnimPortant,
Except the Break in Eggs
Grain Markets Are Light.

Taken as a whole, trade IN the week end
81 March was without doubt the best OF
any week IN the present year. The dry
goods houses had an excellent business for
the season, the advance in certain lines OF
goods IN the early part OF the week acting
as a stimulant 70 trade. and the movement
OF prints and other goods Of the season
was large. The druggists enjoyed good
business. There were declines and adj
vances in certain lines. but not OF much i'm
pOrtance. Linseed oils, although firm, rule
steady, as do paints but are In good de-
mand. Quinine advanced lie ounce
Wholesale grocers had a big trade during
the entire week and travelling statesmen
brought IN good orders. Goods are sold on
small margins. but the volume offsets In a
measure the close prices. All staple gro
ceries are firm. The produce men are very
busy Receipts of eggs are very large and
prices are weak at quotations. which are
14c lower on the dozen than they were two
weeks ago. Even lower prices are probable
Receipts OF poultry, on the contrary, are
light and prices are well held. Butter II
choice, is still a fast mover, but poor stuff
is difficult to dispose OF at any price
Cheese is in good request and firm IN price.
COnfectiOners are doing a good business for
the season, as are dealers in fancy notions.
Hardware and iron merchants are having
an unusually good trade Travelling sales
men on Friday and Saturday brought in
large orders and predict "a large business
during the entire season. Much building Is
projected. and this helps the lumber deal
ers. many of whom have been troubled the
past winter in laying in their usual amount
OF lumber owing 10 the scarcity of cars.
The flour market is active: prices steady
and have a hardening tendency. Travelling
statesmen report the country roads as yet
good, and a few warm days will settle that
feature Of the conditions for the season, as
good roads are essential to "A good trade.

tdTlS Letter III lOlluOn Mall.
The newspaper La Patrie has now re-
ceived full confirmation of the horrible
fate of the scientific mission sent out by
this journal in 1900 to explore the small
and savage islands in the vicinity of Borneo
NJ Rouyer the chief survivor. relates the
story, stating that Baron Villars, Count
Saint-Remy. NJ Hagenbech and NJ De
VTies and many natives were killed.
Their yacht touched off the New Guinea
coast near the AnglO-Dutch boundary, on
Jan. 1. and that night, after a show of
friendlineSs, the Papuans rushed the quiet
when l came to myself ii was o clock
i'm the morning. l was bound and sur
rounded by savages, who, perhaps thinking
me dead, were guarding the body. l saw
Nillars and my other companions in the
same state and terribly mutilated. l under
stood all at once what had happened. A
sudden inspiration caused me TO close my
eyes and feign death. This childish strata
gem saved my life.
''Villars was not far away from me, tied
to a tree. He had been stripped, his skull
was smashed in, his eyes pierced through,
and his abdomen was covered with blood
Count Saint-Remy had his head cut off and
it had been stuck on a lance and was being
carried about as a trophy. M. Hagenbech
was being roasted, and the savages were
preparing to cut up his body. NJ. De Nries
| could not see.
by the sound of shots l looked up and saw
De Riemer and DR.. Forster and all that
remained of the mission about to make an
attack on the savages. My friends opened
fire, and the natives took to flight De
Riemer united my hands and we ran 10 see
if any of our companions remained alive
But alas! all was over for them. We picked
up twenty-five corpses, including those of
Baron Villar. Count Saint Reny and
Hagenbech, and also twelve of the escort
eight bearers and sailor The wounded
number thirty-three.
I'm spite of careful search we could find
nothing of NJ DE Nries except his clothes
We are obliged TO believe from certain
signs that he was devoured by the savages
after having been roasted, as was NJ. Hag-
enbech."

A business man who would probably be
classed as a Philistine was induced 10 go
for the first time TO performance of Wag-

taking the trouble to read over the libretto
Not unnaturally he came home in a good
deal of confusion as to what the perform
ance had all been about. After several DAYS
of cogitation he evolved this plan for the
relief of others situated as he had been:
