Speoin! cable Despatch 10 THE sun.
LONDON, Sept. 3-Signs of international
uneasiness in Europe became visible this
week in new quarter. The relations be-
tween Italy and Austria are developing a
friction which is causing some alarm in
both countries.
The Rome correspondent OF The sun
in telegram which was suppressed by the
Itslian Government. says the persecution
of the philo-Italians at Trieste and the
Austrian intrigues in Albania have in
creased the existing tension. The fortifica-
tions at Ancona and Verona, which hereto
fore had been neglected, are being re-
paired. The public is incensed by the
know ledge that Austrian ships are taking
soundings at night off the Italian coast.
1t is limited in official circles that in case
European complications arise owing to the
war in the Far East and the Balkan ques
ton Italy and Austria will take opposite
sides, notwithstanding the fact that they
are members Of the Triple Alliance.
The Rome press for the past few days
has contained strong anti-Austrian edi-
torials. The Tribune. Ministerial organ
reproduced articles from the Pesther Lloyd
and Vienna papers setting forth that the
Italian feeling over the provocation
will not check .Austria's policy in the Bal
kans, although the King Of Italy has a
father-in-law at Cettinje and brother
in-law at Belgrade. Tho Tribunn suggests
that Italy had better give up her Austrian
alliance

LIVE TOPICS AMOUR TOWN.

One Of the curious articles for sale in
Chinatown at this season Of the year Is the
Chinese Jumping beam" which excites
much interest and speculation among grown
ups and Is a source Of great delight to the
children. The beans are trifle larger than
q coffee bean, and Of about the same color.
When exposed to the light, and especially
il placed where 1t is warm, the beans begin
to hop about and roll over in the most as
tonishing fashion. A plate full Of them
will make quite little noise as they jump
about.
The explanation usually offered by those
who see them for the first time Is that some
electrical influence makes them move.
Others regard the whole affair as a Chinese
trick. Their suspicious are usually con-
firmed when the beans lie motionless after
being delivered by the Chinese salesman.
He always allays such suspicion. however,
in the hand minute. And In about a
minute the beans are stirred into activity
by the heat Of the hand.
The real cause OF the motion in the bean
Is a small worm that lives within 1t. As
the worm grows 1t eats the meat from the
inside Of the bean until all that is left is
thin outside shell. The worm Is able to
move about inside with such force as to
cause 1t to move and sometimes even leap
of the table. That is the remarkable part
Of the whole thing as it is accomplishing
what man has never vet succeeded In doing
practically lifting himself by his boot
straps.
The sturdy band of citizens that has
come to regard the Bellevue Hospital alco-
holic ward as an ideal place in which to
shake of jag once in two weeks is being
rapidly put to rout, as the result Of rule
just passed and relentlessly enforced
In the future man with an alcoholic
load will be welcomed by the doctor only
upon his first appearance. II he goes the
second time 80 soon after the first that he
is remembered. he will be welcomed by a
policeman and invited to take six months
course Of treatment on BlackwelTs Island.
The new rule diminished the number OF
admissions to the alcoholic ward from
twenty one on Friday to six yesterday.
The owners OF express wagons and like
conveyances are praying that the l. strike
will come OF and W i'll last long, long time.
In the big ST. Louis street car strike Of
several years ago and in the San Francisco
strike Of two years ago any vehicle. no
matter how crazy, was gold mine. Far
mers brought their hay wagons into St
Louis. fitted them with seats, and made
from SO to $40 q day. In San Francisco
two boys W no happened to own big express
wagon and a willing team averaged s28
a day. In New York the demand would
be greater and the prices consequently
higher, 80 that a wagon would be small
fortune.

mer wife has found second husband
Mrs Bleezard obtained divorce on
June 7, 1894, and in 1901 she became Mrs.
May J. Bayreuther. She has daughter
by her first husband, and she based her
opposition to Bleezards application for
leave to remarry on the fact that while her
daughter is is years old the woman whom
Bleezard wishes to marry is but 10.
At the same time, the exwife declared
that he had her full consent to remarry
in some other State, New Jersey, for in
stance. but she did not think he should be
allowed to remarry here. as the terms OF
her divorce decree expressly prevented him
from doing. 30.
Bleezard had no desire for New jersey
wedding, 30 he represented TO the Court
that he had behaved himself well since
the divorce ten years ago and should be
permitted to take another wife. Maurice
Goodman was appointed referee to inquire
into Bleezards conduct during the past
Ave years. He has now reported to the
court that Bleezards conduct has been
uniformly good" and that he should be
permitted to re marry.
Mr.. Goodman's report will be passed on

Special cable Despatch 10 The SUN.
VIENNA, Sept. ga host OF Viennese
detectives and the secret police OF Ores
den are pursuing Princess Louise OF SAKE
Coburg and Gotha, who escaped from
Bad Elster with Lieut.. Mattachich-K egie-
witch the other day, but nothing has been
ascertained beyond the fact that she was
nc ,ompanied by the former Austrian
officer. An elderly woman, who is be-
liesed to be the Princess, has taken refuge
in Switzerland where the authorities might
deliver her to her husband, as no divorce
has been granted The Prince, therefore,
according to the Austrian code, can insist
upon her e&tradition.
Further details Of the fight of the Prin-
oe.s show that the so-caled Herr Weizer,
from Gratz, who assisted her in her fight,
was probably Count Orsich, cousin OF
Kegievitch. He provided the Princess
with hair dye and other toilet articles which
she rapidly put on at a town an hours
drive from Elster. The Princess had with
her about 1000 marks out of some money
she received on her birthday, Aug. rs, and
a valuable jewel rosary worth 81, 900 marks
The total value of her iewelry is stated
to be quarter Of million marks.
II was ascerained after her flight that
the lock on the door had been picked, The
lock was new. having been placed on the
door to replace one in which traces of wax
had been found some time ago.
II is affirmed in Brussels that Kegievitch
Ia supported by a group Of Belgian friends
who advanced the necessary money, and
that he had bean preparing for the affair
for two years.
The legal adviser of Prince Philip, the
husband of Princess Louise. has informed
the Vienna Tdgebidh that he will bring
the case before the Imperial MarshaPs
court, of which Emperor Francis Joseph
10 the head The Prince will demand that
his wife, as soon "a her abode is discovered
be delivered TO his marital authority. The
court will doubtless grant this applica-
tion. Then in view of the existing inter-
national treaties the verdict will be re-
spected.

WILKEsBARRE, Sept. Charles Z. Norris,
who walked 5000 miles to cure himself OF
consumption, fell dead In Chicago the other
day Of heart disease. The news has just
been sent along the lines OF the Eastern
railroads. and there Is regret at nearly
every telegraph office and station. He
WAS great favorite among the railroad
men and had spent four years tramping
along the railroads, eating and sleeping
with the operators and station hands.
Five years ago, after living in various
places in the West in the hope of ov ercom-
ing the consumption which was gradually
killing him. Norris landed in San Fran
cisco. There the doctors gave him only
two months to live and said his case was
hopeless. He was penniless, without
family and weak, but he made up his mind
to fight to the last and try the open air
and exercise cure. He started from San
Francisco, bound east, on the railroads.
He had only one lung left, and could not
stand the strain Of the ascents and descents
Of the highway. For month he thought
every night would be his last. Then he
began to improve. At the time OF his death
he weighed 1870 pounds. When he started
on his tramp his weight IVES only ninety -four
He was strong and vigorous and had not
taken medicine since he left San Francisco.
The railroaders fed and clothed him in
return for his railroad gossip, which he
managed to pick up as he travelled from
station to station. stopping an hour or so
and then going on He never rode, cover
ing all the distance he has traversed since
leaving San Francisco on foot. The news
of his coming was sent along the railroads
from operator to operator days in advance,
and he never yet. he said found an operator
or station agent who was not glad to see
him, feed him and to aid him in getting
clothes and shoes. He wore out eighty
nine pairs Of shoes in his tramping.
His favorite route in the summer was
along the Lehigh Valley the d. l.. & W.
and the New York Central between New
York and Buffalo. and he knew every tele-
graph operator along these lines In win
ter he went South, but he stayed out of doors
as long as possible, and only on very cold
nights did he sleep in the stations. He had
gone to Chicago'to arrange for the publica-
ton of book describing his case.
