It has been an inter, sting week from
every viewpoint. The presence of several
thousand visitors and the entrance of hosts
and hostesses new to the capital into the
scheme of their entertainment and the
numberless large and small affairs unre-
corded as we'll as those told to the public,
were each in their way important links in
the weeks story. Within it's limits were
also Mrs. Benedict's reception for the Prin-
cess Stigllano Colonna. Admiral and Mrs
Dewey's celebration of the anniversary of
the battle of Manila large dinners and re-
ceptions at the homes of the Vice Presi-
dent and Mrs. Fairbanks, Mr.. and Mrs
Stuyvesant Fish, Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel
Spencer, Mr. and Mrs. Morton Grinnell and
Senator and Mrs. Elkins. and an interna-
tional wedding al Woodey yesterday, when
Lieut. Won Bredow and Miss Frances New
lands were the happy couple.
Next week Mrs. Roosevelts tea for the
railway congress will be the event of Fri
day Its nature, whether an indoor or an
outdoor fete, will be determined by the
weather.
Before the spring and early summer sea-
son closes here weddings will change the
name of one and perhaps of several other
Washington girls into titles that will later
on be mentioned with attention on both
sides of the big stream. There seems TO lie
more than the usual happiness following
the international marriages contracted in
this city. The old-time idea that titles were
only seeking money, and that affection, or
even common sense. played no part in tie
transaction, may now be said TO nave nttle
to be retold in its favor.
The careers of those who have gone from
here to adorn positions abroad have been
singularly successful, which goes to show
that acquaintance and experience acquired
In a cosmopolitan city are valuable factors
in semi-public life. Naturally, in re-
counting these still youthful personages, the
name of Lady CurZon, wife of the Viceroy
sof India and as Mary Letter known from
her schooldays in this city, comes first to
mind. Lady Curzon. besides forceful men
tai equipment has a handsome face and
figure and a large personal income Since
returning to India she has shown the usual
American spirit of quick resource in time
of trouble by doing all sorts of kind things
for the foreign and native sufferers from
the earthquake which shook down parts
of her own palace home.
The Countess of Essex was formerly Miss
Adele Grant, and. with her mother, spent
several winters here during the first Cleve-
land administra ton. She was one of the
beautiful girls most frequently in evidence
in the Whitney Inequalities, sharing the
public and private admiration given to Miss
Matte Mitchell about the same time. The
latter also went abroad and became the
Duchess de Rouchefoucald of France. while
Miss Grant, who had wide knowledge of
English society, went back again to Eng
land and shortly afterward married the
Earl of Essex.

SOON TO END.
Russian Ships Will Not larry Great
While longer.


New York. May 10.-There are indi-
cations that French hostility will not
be used longer by the Russian ships
which have been lowering on the coast
of Indo-China for nearly month. Of
fetal advices have reached st. Peters
burg which are believed to indicate
that the division under Vice Admiral
Nebagotoff has effected a junction with
the more powerful squadron command
ed by Vice Admiral Rojestvensky. end
at the Russian capital It is expected
that the combined squadrons will lose
no time in steaming northward to en-
counter the japanese. Confirmation OF
St. Petersburg's expectations is af-
forded by an official dispatch to the
French naval office announcing that
the Russian squadron left Kond Hal
bay. It's destination being unknown

were recently reported to be. Simulta-

ed to be concentrating in the Straits OF
Formosa, the scouting line being much
extended.
There has been increasing feeling In
japan official quarters regarding the
way in which France has construed
neutrality. and Great Britain's sympa-
thy for her ally has been evidenced In
communications that have passed be-
tween the British foreign secretary and
the French ambassador in London. as
well as between the British ambassa-
dor in Paris and Foreign Minister Del

all her influence to calm the statesmen
at Toxic. The interests of Japan could
not be served. according to the opinion
here. by the extension of hostilities I'M
less Admiral Toes is beaten. in which
case It is not doubted that Japan would
use the pretext of French violation OF
neutrality to demand the fulfillment Of
Great Britain's obligations as her ally.
The opinion held in some quarters is
that this is exactly the contingency
which Japan has in view.
All newspapers discuss the object,
Novoe vremya very sarcastically pic
turing Japan as a great dominating
power of the world. laying down the
law, issuing orders and making Ro-
jestvensky a veritable outlaw driven
from place to place at Japan's bidding.
"And poor Rojestvensky." the paper
continues. ''wearied and not knowing
where to go. remains where he Is. But
why does not the great Togo. who
knows where his enemy is anchor
ed. attack him and thus end all compli-
cations. That would be better than plac-
Ing embargo on French ships and more
simple than bombarding the ports
OF French Indo-China. Japan has
grown very pompous. Her frown in
spires the world with owe, but 1t is
passing strange that Rojestvensky has
not been seizedwith universal fright"
The Novosti says France did well
to come to an understanding with Great
Britain In view of the danger which
threatens Indo-China. which, the paper
insists, is not imaginary.

TRIED TO DIE.
He Made Desperate Attempt to Shut
fe off This Mortal Coil.

Battle Creek. Mich. May 10.-Berry
Sanford. the oldest negro citizen of this
city. an old Kentucky slave. attempted
to commit suicide last night at the
Nichols hospital by cutting his throat
with a jack knife. Five months ago
Sanford became paralyzcd on his right
side and was taken to the hospital
II took him over an hour to open his
knife with his left hand and his teeth
He cut a cash four inches long on the
left side of his throat. but was dis
covered In the act by a nurse and
was disarmed. He will probably die.
Sanford is the last surviving wit
ness OF tie invasion OF this state in
IS4s by armed Kentuckians, who fore
IDLY attempted to capture a fugitive
slave at the famous Quaker settlement
In Cass county. The failure of this M
vcasion, and the subsequent excitement
throughout the southern states result
ed in the passage OF the fugitive slave
law by congress.

BOTH CLAIM GAINS.
Employers Association Declare That
Charges Made Are True.

Charges Made Are True.
Chicago. May 1O.-Both sides claim
to have made gains Monday in the
teamsters' strike. The employers de-
clare that they have gained a consider
able advantage in the number OF
wagons sent out and the amount OF
business transacted. The strikers
claim is based on the fact that $50
drivers for the various furniture deal
ers aimed to strike and also $50 paint
workers employed by the Keath &
Milligan company.
State street department stores and
large dry goods houses sent out nearly
their complement of delivery wagons
and throughout the day transacted
business on almost a normal basis.
The Employers association issued q
statement addressed to the public de-
claring that the charges against Presi-
dent Shea of the Transfers union
made by them last Friday were true I'm
every particular.
In the charges Il was declared that
President Shea had offered to settle
the strike on the following basis: The
strike to be declared off, the teamsters
to return to work for twenty-four
hours during which time Shea would
leave town. The employers would have
the right to discharge all of their men.
President Shea has denied the as
sertions of the employers ever since
they were made and he still asse is
that there is no truth In them.
Albert Embers. was shot by William
ODay. He died late Monday night.
There were considerable rioting and

PUGULIST HARTER GETS
OUT OF BAD SCRAPE
MAKES GOOD A NUMBER OF
WORTHLESS CHECKS HE CASH.
ED IN THIS CITY, AND PROS
ECUTloN AGAINST HIM is
DROPPED.

After spending almost two weeks
in the county jail, where he was held
TO await a preliminary nearing on
the charge or forgery and obtaining
money by means of "a number OF
worthless checks, G. w Harter, a san
Francisco sporting men, who came
to Albuquerque during the fair with
Champion James j. Jeffries and his
party, was released from Jail Satur-
day evening. 1t is understood that he
left late that night for California.
Harter, it will be remembered, was
arrested on complaint of several Al
buquerque merchants on the charge
of passing a number or worthless
checks on them for amounts aggre-
eating about $500. He was placed in
iail, as he was unable to give bond,
and his preliminary hearing post
poned at his request as he wanted
time in which to settle and escape
prosecution This was done, and af-
ter hard work he managed to raise
the money and make good the checks.
His release then followed.
During his stay in this city and be-
fore his arrest, Harter posed as a
pugilist and claimed to be a member
of Jeffries training staff. He boast
ed of the fact that he was the only
man living who could stand up and
box the big champion.
