SACRIFICED ALI FOR STRONG.
May Yohe's Sentimental Cry in Paris
 Can stiIs Forgive Him.

Paris, Aug. 3.-May Yohe reached Paris this morning, and up to tonight she had not yet seen Putnam Bradlee Strong or learned where he is.
 Miss Yohe reached the railroad sta ton here at o'clock this morning She was in painful condition and unable to walk or stand as a result Of having sprained her knee on the eve of her de- parture from London yesterday. This sprain occurred in the same place where she had previously broken her leg. The accident caused Miss Yohe considerable suffering and her nerves were complete ly unstrung. She had to be carried to a carriage at the station and to her room upon her arrival at the hotel where she is stopping. She was in such a state of nervous prostration that a doctor who was summoned to her as- sistance prescribed complete repose and would not allow her to see any one dur ing the day. The doctor called upon her three times to-day and ordered her to rest for at least one week to permit the recovery of her injured knee.
 Miss Yohe became calmer this even- ing and insisted upon taking a short drive in the Bois de Boulogne. A rep resentative of the Associated Press saw her tonight. She was evidently great ly disappointed at not having heard from Strong, and said: T came here straightaway upon receiving message in London from MT. Strong, through a friend, that unless came to meet him in Paris he would do away with him. self in forty-eight hours; but have not seen or heard anything of him yet nor do I know where he is. He said he would telegraph me to the hotel here, but I have received nothing. I do not want anybody to think I am running after MT. Strong, because I am not, but feel that if he comes to me and acts like man I can forgive him and for get his cruel treatment. That is why I came here.
 "I sacrificed everything," went on Miss Yohe, with tears in her eyes, "to my love for him, and feel it bitterly hard to be treated in this way"
 CIle LHeu OpSIeu d SOlQ lOCkeL WHICH she wore at her throat and showed two photographs of Strong. She said she had three more photographs of him on the mantelpiece in her bedroom.
 As soon as Miss Yohe is we'll enough to travel again she is going to Genoa to redeem the jewels pawned there. She deposited the jewels she brought with her and her pawn tickets with the man. agement of her hotel.
 When asked if she intended to reap pear on the stage Miss Yohe replied emphatically: 1T do not. received an offer while in London from an Ameri- can impressario to appear in Paris, but I declined it." Miss Yohe said she and her mother had enough money to live on comfortably.

RUSSIA'S PLAIN STATEMENT
WILL FIGHT CONTEMPLATING
 DUTY ON HER SUGAR.
Official Announcement Made Through the Czar's Financial Agent at yyash- Inston-WiI Consider the EstabIish- ment of Such Duty by Any Power as an InfractiOn of Commercial Treaties nn,I yUHBH RaFoIaafa
and WIlI RetaIiate.

Washington, Aug. 3.-M. Routkowsky, the financial agent of the Russian gov- ernment at Washington. has. by direc- tion of the home authorities, made the following official statement regarding the recent note of the Russian minister of finance relating to the Brussels sugar conventions:
 ''In view of the erroneous interpreta- tion by many organs of the American press of the object and meaning of the recent note of the Russian minister of finance sent to various governments whose representatives have signed the Brussels convention on suppression of bounties on sugar. M. Routkowsky, the financial agent of the Russian govern ment in the United States, has been ir- structed to communicate to the Aneri- can press that in case of the negative answer of powers to the above mention ed note. and the establishment of a countervailing duty on Russian sugar, the imperial Russian government shall consider the establishment of such duty as an infraction of its commercial treaties with powers so doing, and, therefore, free from obligations imposed by them and at liberty not to comply with their stipulations, whenever it will be to the advantage of Russia"
 Many of the American newspapers, M. Routkowsky explained, have inter preted the note referred to as move on the part of the Russian government to inaugurate European coalition against American trade Such an un- derstanding, he declares, it entirely in- correct and does the Russian govern ment an injustice. The note was sent by Russia to the governments partici- pating in the Brussels sugar conference and also to the American government merely as an act~of courtesy, the Unit ed States not having been a party to that conference. In retaliation for the countervailing duty a gainst Russian bounty sugars imposed by the United States, Russia now imposes her maxi mum tariff rates.
 The object of the statement issued to- day, M. RoutkowslSy says, is to show that Russia is not engaged in any effort. to wage a campaign against American trade, but to make plain to the parties to the Brussels conference that the i'm position of countervailing duties against Russian sugar will be met as it was in the case of the United States. The question of the legality of the counter. vailing duty on Russian sugar now is pending in the United States supreme court,

Explanation of Young Society Burglar
 in Chester, Vt.

Chester, Vt., Aug. 3.-A partial con- fession by Clarence Adams, the gentle- man burglar of this town, to-day, cov- ering incidents of the past six years, has added to the excitement over this case. Adams had his legs peppered with buckshot one night last week, and while he claimed that he had been held up on the road and shot, his statements to-day show that he ran into the gun set for burglars in the grain mill of Charles Waterman. Adams admits burglaries covering six yeayrs back but adds that he is being charged with too many of them. The only explanation he gives for his depredations is amusement"

SOCIAL EVILS DISCUSSED
IN 4 PLAIN, POINTED AND
 STRAIGHTFORWARD MANNER

Rev. W. J. Mutch Spoke Upon Current
 Social EviIs-AIluded often to n Re-
 cent Case in This city-"The GiIded
 Pirates of Hotels and the Poorer Ones
 of Dance Halls" Were Strongly Con-
 demned.
 Rev. W. J. Mutch, pastor of the How ard avenue Congregational church, preached an unusual sermon and one of far more than ordinary moment yester- day morning, The subject was Social Pirates The sermon, in part, fol- lows: .l.
 'The theme is the Seventh Command ment, and is here used not in its mar row and legal sense, but in its broad Scriptural sense in which it includes everything unchaste. And the theme is brought forward here as a public pro- test from the conscience of the Chris tian and law-abiding community against great wrongs existing among us, which are properly entitled to the name of social piracy.
 Perhaps the saddest fact in connec- tion with this whole subject appears when we say that this community has almost forgotten, and does not expect again to hear public mention made of a tragedy which occurred scarcely more than week ago in one of our many shore hotels. ... :....
 This particular case is referred to because it tells its own story so frankly on it's face and saves us the trouble, notwithstanding the kindly evasiveness of the newspapers. By them it was only the freak of foolish girl who could not bring herself to go back and work in the shop after having taste of a life of gayety. She died in the arms of her lover, one of the brightest students in Yale as well as one of the wealthiest. That is 8 generous and pretty way to tell it, more so than newspaper men always take; but every reader is supposed to have sense enough to read between those lines a wholly different story. It is a story of deception, ruin and death for one who should otherwise have been just enter ing the glory and beauty of woman hood. It is not merely a midsummer nights dream, not a. mere incident de- signed to give spice and sparkle to the life story of a brilliant young lawyer or southern statesman. It is the deep- est tragedy that human soul is ever called to face.
 By charitable considerateness that is truly surprising, the names of the other members of this same party are withheld from the public. So are the names of all other similar parties who may have been pursuing their illicit business there at the same time, and the parties who may have been there on all the other nights of this season, and on all the nights of all the other seasons in all the years that are past. Neither do we know the social pirates who have been without doubt infesting more or less the numerous other public and private houses, places of amuse- ment, and even tke parks and high ways of this community. Orderly and people have no means of

LEAVE ALL TO THE POPE

 TO AMERICAN CATHOLICS.
Agitation by Certain Societies and Papers Over the Philippine Friar Problems Deeply Deprecated-shouId Keep Within Their Sphere and Not Assume to Direct the Affairs of the Church. Wisdom of Pontifr Must Not be Mistrusted.

be Mistrusted.
 St. Paul, Minn., Aug. 3.-Archbishop Ireland preaching this morning in the cathedral said:
 ''The Apostle Paul gives this counsel: Not to be more wise than it behoovetth to be wise, but to be wise unto sobriety, and according as God hath divided to every one the measure of faith In the mind of the apostle things most excel lent, if made use of in undue measure and without proper regard to circum- stances, of time and place change into things perilous and hurtful And this is undoubtedly what IS happening In the case of the fiery zeal In defense of Catholic interests. which seems to be coveting an explosion at the present time among certain classes of Ameri- can Catholics. The interests of the church, 1t is said, are made to suffer at the hands of the government in its new ly acquired dependencies and the call to arms is sounded from the rostrums Of Catholic societies and through the columns of Catholic papers to the per turbation of the whole Catholic body, and, indeed, of the whole country. The moment has come to say to Catholics be wise, be zealous unto sobriety, and such counsel take the liberty to give to my hearers.
 "Who are they, who complain and protest and call upon Catholics to be up and doing? Are they those who might claim to represent the church in it's general, or even local interests? Has the sovereign pontiff spoken? Certainly he has not complained; rather has he been heard from in very different tones. Have the ecclesiastical authorities in the dependencies invoked our aid? In no instance have they so acted; where they have been heard from, as in the case of Porto Rico and of Cuba, it was to tell us in plainest words that they had no grievance Bishop Blenck of Porto Rico openly rejoices that the American flag, rather than the Spanish, guards his diocese; and the hierarchy in Cuba are thanking God that church in- terests there were settled by the gov- ernment of Washington before a Cuban parliament was allowed to sit down in Havana. The archbishops of the states meet together once a year in Washing ton. It cannot be said that they are
