NEW YORK GIRLS
CHASED BY SHEIK.
They Are in Vienna in a Highly
Nervous State-Doctors
Puzzled.

New York, June s.--Vienna physi-
clans are puzzled by the nervous
breakdown of the three Misses Bondy
of New York, who are now In the
Austrian capital, having reached that
city after a tour Of the Mediterranean.
A Herald dispatch from Paris says the
young women are In medical lnsti-
tuition in Vienna, having been taken
there for observation and treatment
while laboring under great excitement
or hysteria.
six months ago the three sisters,
who are between the ages of 20 and
80, left New York for Europe unat-
tended, for a trip to the Mediterran-
can. They were we'll supplied with
money and proficient in European
languages.
A month ago they reached Constan-
tinople. There they met party OF
Americans who obtained for the young
ladies a reliable courier to escort
them to Havre, where they proposed
embarking on the return voyage. They
were evidently in nervous condition
and told stories of an attempt made to
kidnap them near the pyramids and OF
their having been pursued across Gal
lice by q bandit sheik. They gave the
impression to all who came in con-
tact with them that their nerves had
been considerably shaken by their ad-
ventures, fancied or real.
On the arrival Of the sisters In
Vienna their nervousness became
more marked. They evaded the cour.
Ter and moved from hotel to hotel de.
claring their lives were in danger
Finally they called upon the police
for protection and were turned over
to the United States consul, who Ii
having them cared for pending the
arrival of relatives.
The real cause of the nervou;
breakdown is unknown.

active Boer societies of, this city are
planning to persuade General Cronje
not to appear at the ST. Louis exposl-
ton in command of the Boer veter-
ans, who have been engaged to take
part in mock fights.
Since Cronje writes to the French
press that he has accepted this en-
gagement because he is compelled to
earn his bread, the leaders of the
former Boer organizations propose to
ask him to accept subscription.
They also plan to appeal to ex-Presi-

old friend and fellow soldier.
IF Kruger, who is rolling in
money, permits the memory of Boe1
valor to be degraded by the proposed

"his French friends cannot keep "
their respect for the old president
The fulfillment of Cronje's contrac
