lows Carbolic After Dispute
With Husband

Mrs. Lorenzo e. Palmerston COM
mitted suicide last night by taking two
ounces of carbolic acid in the bedroom
of her apartment, SOC st. Peter street.
The direct cause of the act is at
tributed to a quarrel with her hus-
band. Lorenzo E. Palnerston, immedi-
.ately preceding the deed. Mrs. Palm
serston, better known as "Margery,"
had just returned from a visit to a
friend and found her husband IN her
room. She entered, and, according to
Dottie Mccain, who roomed with
them. hot words followed. Mar
gerry was in a state of partial intox-
ication, and becoming enraged at her
husband, snatched a bottle of carbolic
acid from its place in bureau drawer
and swallowed the contents.
s'almerston attempted to prevent her,
but did not succeed in reaching her
before she had swallowed the poison.
After vain attempt to secure doc

bought a bottle of carbolic acid. She
placed the poison in her own room
and Palmerston becoming aware of her
intentions Instructed Mrs.. Palmerston
to take the bottle into her room.
Palmerston came home early last
evening and went directly to his wife's
room. He sat down and wrote a note
to her in which he complained of her
neglect of him and maintaining that
although he loved her he could not
stand her treatment of him. He left

ARMY MAN[UY[RS
ARE CONCLUDED
Gems. Bell and Grant Break
Even in the Matter of
Victories

GAINESVILLE, Va, Sept. 9.-The
second maneuver problem ceased at 9
o'clock today with Gen. Bell, COM
manding the brown army, demolishing
Gen. Grant, commanding the blue army,
east of Bull Run. This result awards
victory to the attacking force in each
of the two problems and makes Gen.
Grant the first victor and Gen. Bell
timated without bullets.
The maneuvering and fighting today
was far the most spectacular and ex-
citing of the campaign. The first day
of the second problem had developed
nothing but a. rear guard action on
the part of Gen. Grant, while Gen. Bell
had spent his time endeavoring to
make demonstration on the left wing
or to the south of the blue line Dur
ing the night the situation was changed.
Gen. Grants position remained the
same, behind or to the east of Bull
Run.
Over the Famous Stone Bridge
He withdrew his first brigade under
Gen. Wint, who had fought the rear
guard action the day before, to the fa-
A'4ONo SeOitC OAAO6S oSlOSS Dull
along whose eastern shores the
trenches dug by the federal troops still
remain and in which Gen. Grant posted
Gen. Wint's line after it had been driv-
en- across the bridge with the loss of
one brigade. Gen. Bell executed a
magnificent march with the forces
which the day before were on the left
wing of his enemy He threw them
during tile small hours of the night
from the left to the right of Grants
position. When daylight came they
were put across Bull Run at Sudley or
to the extreme north of the maneuyer
scene. His center remained practical
ly the same and fought a brigade ac-
ton at the stone bridge.
1t was at the point here that the
fighting of the day began The brown
forces charged up to the bridge, which
was constructively blown up, but were
repulsed and ordered back. A second
charge likewise did not meet the ap-
proval of the umpires, but the third
was accompanied by most brilliant
action. part of the brown force. a
section of the Ninth infantry, had de-

TICKET COMPANY
HAS TO ASSIGN
St. Louis Exposition People Fail to
Pay for the Tickets Used

BOSTON. Mass, Sept. s.-The New

sey corporation. to which was awarded
the contract for printing the tickets
used by the Louisiana Purchase expo
sltion at st. Louis, has assigned. Pres
1dent Bradstreet, of the assigned COM
pany, stated this afternoon that the
failure was made necessary because
the exposition company had neglected
to pay for the tickets used at the fair
grounds. Nearly 100000 tickets had
been shipped to st. Louis, but the
drafts for the payment of the same
were. according to President Brad
street, returned unpaid, with requests

REMOVES TO NEW YORK
CITY TO Do THIS
He Changes Plans Outlined by Lead
ers and Will Assume Full Charge
of His Own Fight for the Presi-
dency--- The Candidate May Also
Make Number of Speeches

NEW YORK, Sept. s.-There is
every reason to believe that Judge
Parker will make arrangements to
come to New York for temporary resi-
dence soon after his formal letter of
acceptance is made public. Leading
Democrats have strongly represented
to him that his continued presence at
so inconvenient "a ;, location as Rose
mount, with no hotel accommodations,
has kept Judge Parker from personal
contact with many prominent men
who are frequently in New York city,
but who have not time for the journey
to Esopus.
The plan has progressed as far as
the making of tentative arrangements
for him to take a suite of rooms here.
According to those close in Judge Par
ker's counsels, his idea is to be imme-
diately in touch with the party lead
ers and accessible to those whom it is
needful and desirable to meet as the
campaign progresses.
ESOPUS, N. Y, Sept. Sew Wis
itors were at Rosemount today. Rain
fell nearly all day, but this did not
prevent Judge Parker taking his daily
ride. He has completed his letter of
acceptance, but it has not been sent to
the printer and probably will not be
for several days. William F. Sheehan,
chairman of the national executive
committee, is expected here tomorrow
to remain over Sunday. Mr.. and Mrs.
Sheehan expect to reopen Atwood
their house on the Hudson, two miles
south of RoSemount.
