New York.--The most remarkable
suit ever tried in a court of law will
be heard when the New York supreme
court takes up its autumn calendar.
Yet to say that the case will be
heard" is not stating the exact facts,
for the testimony will be given in that
most silent form of all silence-the
sign language of the deaf-mutes. Both
the parties to the case are mutes and
all the witnesses, of whom there will
be SO or 60, are likewise afflicted, so
that the story of the trouble that has
landed them in court will come from
the fingers instead of from the lips.
But this is not the only remarkable
feature of this unusual case, which is
further complicated by the fact that
some Of the witnesses cannot "speak"
English, SO that great deal of the
testimony will have to he given first

Case OF Wide Interest.
The New York World, commenting
upon this remarkable case, says:
Eighty thousand deaf-mutes in this
country, and fully as many more in
Germany, Austria and France, will be
affected by the outcome of the case,
whatever it may be, for the parties at
law are both among the most prom
inent mutes in the world, and what
ever interests them will interest their
fellows in the United States and Eu-
rope.
"The belligerents are both prom
inent in New York city, where they
reside. There are two suits, one
brought as an Offset to the other, so
that both parties are plaintiffs and
each is a defendant. And, most Gu
rious point Of all, considering the fact
that everyone connected with the af-
fair is deaf-mute, the twin suits are
for-slander!
1T would be hard, then, to conceive
a more intricate, complicated, para
doxical situation than presents itself
now.
Jacques Loew, one of the plaintiff
defendants, is q well-known resident
of New York, which he has made his
home for the past 80 years since he
came from Austria. Although deaf
mute, he is an expert worker in leath-
er and plush goods, and made good
living even before he became part
ner in one of the biggest concerns
manufacturing these goods. For q
score Of years he was prominent fig
ure at Fleischmann's Vienna bakery,
where his huge white mustache and
dignified bearing earned for him the
sobriquet of "The Baron He break
tasted at Fleischmann's early every
morning, and ct dinner every evening
was generally surrounded by a score
or more Of guests, all deaf-mutes,
whose animated conversation was
most interesting to other patrons of
the restaurant.
Married Deaf Mutes.
when nearly so years of age Mr..
Loew married a deaf-mute daughter of
Lonas Somehow, a retired millionaire
merchant, who lives in West Eighty
sixth street, and has two children, the
son, strange to say, being deaf-mute
like his parents, it being unusual for
the affection to descend from one
generation to another. Young Loew,
however, became deaf-mute through
illness and not as direct inheritance.
Their daughter, a beautiful girl Of Is,
possesses the faculties Of both speech
and hearing. One of Mrs. Loew's Sis
tiers married a son of Meyer Guggen-
helm, the Silver King, who died re-

their summers with the Sonneborns
at Long Branch, where they drive the
smartest rigs and entertain largely.

CHAPTER XXI.

BOARDING THE LION IN HIS DEN.
Over the useless slaughter of the field
of Fredericksburg it were best to draw
the veil. Far down at the left flank the
old brigade CROPPED its way through
dripping fog and lay in line of battle,
having little to do but wait orders, and
catching only occasional shots from
the southern guns along the heights.
Old hands under fire, the veterans
officers and m%en--lay close and kept
still. Their rifles could effect nothing
against an enemy uphill and behind
entertainments. New hands, not yet
used to battle, were not SO quiet, and
the gallant colonel Of the great battal-
ion of Wolverines, big almost as the
rest of the brigade, thought it neces-
sary to rid up and down his line, ex-
horting his men to steadiness in loud
and powerful voice. ut lets EN- know
I'm here" said he, to the expostulant
commander Of the next door regiment.
Il see," said the latter, as a volley
flashed down from Early's fellows
along the crest, 'and it also let's the
enemy. Your men will be steadier
without the telling" which reasoning
the colonel %pondered over and accepted.
He and his t~horoughbreds were spoil

THE o w OF LONDON.
Not Very Different from That of
Many of Our Ameri-
can Cities.

The suburban builder has certain
fixed and resolute notions. To begin
with, says the London Spectator, he
greatly dislikes a tree. A well-grown
tree is too large for him; so long as it
is left standing it makes it impossible
for him to utilize every square inch
OF the ground he has acquired on
which to build houses. His first step,
therefore, in dealing with the large
pieces of ground which come into the
market from time to time in a growing
neighborhood, and which originally
formed the park or woods of what was
once a single country estate, is to cut
down the trees. The older and grander
trees perhaps cannot be removed mere
ly with an ak and a spade; these he
just blasts out of the ground.
Next, everything must be like every
thing else. All the roads must be of
the same width and run in uniform di-
rections; each house must resemble it's
neighbor as far as possible, except
that here is a certain latitude allowed
in the pattern picked out in yellow
bricks on the background Of red; or
there may be several different styles
in white wooden balconies. Each gar
den, again, must measure so much by
so much; there must be SO many feet
in front of the house and so many
behind; and after the garden is meas
ured out, it has to be inclosed with a
wooden fence, of which the black kind
is the worst. One by one the square

eligible residence is to be let or sold"

the first brickload was driven into the

hideous addition has been made to the
London suburbs.
