Washington. July 23.-tDespfte the
agitation over unwholesome meat pro-
ducts, the comparative export figures
on canned meats for 1905 and 1906, just
at hand, show general increase for
practically all parts of the world ex-
cept Japan, and there the falling off is
due to the cessation of the war with

Russia. The value of canned meats
exported from the United States IN
June, 1906, was $461.100, against $751;
1877 in June, 1905, and in the fiscal year
1906 was s9,233.410. against $9,557,o45,

figures of the department Of commerce
and labor thru it's bureau of statistics,
was 64,523,359 pounds against 66,6SS, :
56S pounds in the fiscal year of 1905.
The reduction in exports was found
almost exclusively in the shipments to
Japan. The exports of canned beef to

RECALLS NOTED CRIME.
Suicide Shows whereabouts of Woman
Tried For George Saxton's Murder.

Ravenna, Ohio. July 23-The mystery
regarding the whereabouts of Mrs.
Anna Il. George, who was accused of
the murder of George SaNtdf brother
of the wife OF President Mckinley, at
Canton. eight years ago, has been
cleared by the suicide here yesterday
of DR.. Arthur c. Ridout. Not until yes
terday was ii known that Mrs George
became the wife of DIR. Ridout at
Wheeling. w Va, five years ago. They
had lived in retirement since coming
here a month ago.
II am tired and sleepy and 1 shall go
to bed" DR.. Ridout told his wife on
Friday. Several hours later Mrs. Rid
out went to his room, where she found
his body hanging by strap from Il
chandelier. He had been strangled to
death No reason is known for the sui
eide.
DR.. Ridout was born in Leon, n. Y,
forty five years ago, and was the oldest
son of Rev. j. c. Ridout Il Methodist
minister, now living in Brocton, n. Y.
He practiced medicine in various Ohio
cities after his graduation from the
Cleveland Homeopathic college in 1894.
At the time of the killing OF Saxton and
the trial Of Mrs. George he and his first
wife and their three daughters lived In
Salem, near Canton. A divorce separ-
ated him from his wife about two years
before he married Mrs. George.
DR.. Ridout evidently contemplated
suicide for months. He asked an An
surance agent If certain policy would
hold in case OF self obstruction, and
declined to accept 1t when told ii would
not. He was wealthy, owning several
race horses.

The arrest of Mrs. George was due

been intimate. and sought to show that
if she had killed him it was justifi-

Mrs. George was the wife of car

avowed intention Of marrying Saxton,

Deafness Cannot be Cured

There is only one way to cure deaf

tube is infiamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing. and when
it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
re suit and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition. hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of

So Woman Does Not Care to See Her
self as Others See Her.

No woman was ever so foolish as to
wish that some power giftie wou)i
give her to see herself as others see
her She does not like shocks of that
sort.
This page knows woman who con-
siders herself uncommonly dignified.
She prides herself on her reserve and
her austerity of manner. She often
feels that she is to severe, too, unap-
proachable. What was her disconl-
future, therefore, recently to overhear
herself spoken Of as that 'hoity-toity
person" AT least she's hoity-toity in
some of her moods" went on her as
sailant.
"Hoity-toity!" Some Of her
moods."
Heavens! said the woman, bitter
ly and went at once to the dictionary.
According to the dictionary, "hoity-
toity" means "elated giddy, Eighty.
petulant, huffy"
If she had thought for years II
would never have occurred to her that
any one with a particle of discrimina
ton could have applied these adject-
ives to her. And yet this person had
always thought endowed with discrim-
nation.
She had rather be called a thief than
fighty or giddy. and she knows she
isn't either, so she Is still enduring
bitterness of spirit over the affront,
but the incident only proves that no

adjective.
There are women. for instance, who
think of themselves as the very es-s
sence of placidity.
Il am always calm they tell strang-
ers;;. nothing ever disturbs me-" And
some time thereafter they are ex-
ceedingly annoyed when their nearest

More in sorrow than in anger they
turn upon that person and rend him
then, in the secrecy of their own
chambers. they wonder how any one
not absolutely imbecile ever got the
opinion they were irritable. how they
could mistake just indignation for ir-s
ritability and righteous wrath for ner
vousness.
There are any number OF women
who esteem themselves very charitable s
and are esteemed by others just the
opposite; there are others who deem
themselves logical and reasonable and

perience Of seeing herself with the

SAGE FORTUNE STABLE.
Ei-ancier's Wealth All in Tangible
Form.

New York, July 24.lThe death of
Russell Sage, for decades one of the
leading tillanciers of Wall street and
one of its richest operators, caused
hardly a ripple of excitement in the
stock market. His vast fortune, esti-
mated at s10O,OOO,0O0, had been so dis
posed of by the veteran money lender
that it would go on drawing interest,
whether he We're dead or alive, and few
Of the securities which he owned we're
! OF the kind which depended on his
guiding hand to make them profit
able
Consequently there was no calling of
loans or selling of shaky stocks when
the financier died. Instead the stock
market pursued its usual course, and
Mr. Sage, tho a dominant figure in the
money market, had been personally abb
sent from the street for so long and had
lived so much to himself that there
were few friends to comment on his
demise
The Sage fortune is not a paper for
tune. 1t is more tangible probably
than that of any other extremely rich
man in the country. A large percent
age of it always consisted of coin of
the realm, laid aside until such times
as call money rose to extremely high
figures Then it was doled out to hard
pressed financiers to tide them over
periods of stringency, after which it
was returned to Sage's strong box,
with interest at the rate of from 10
to 125 per cent added Then there are
bonds, bearing good interest, which
were bought in times of financial st1'in-
gency when their former owners need
ed money in hurry,and some stocks
Of the gilt-edged variety which will
continue to draw dividends.
What the ultimate disposition of this
wealth will be is unknown, but it is
conceded that immediate control of the
vast fortune will pass into the hands
If Mrs Sage. Rumors of large be-
quests to charity are persistent, how
ever, and some go so far as to predict
that requests for public purposes
which will astound the world have been
made.
Colonel +. J. Slocum and Charles w.
Osborne, brother-in-iaw and confiden-
tial man respectively of Mr.. Sage, and
co-executors of his estate with Mrs.
Sage, were in conference with the le-
gal Representatives of the estate to-
day. Mr.. Sage's will will probably
be probated shortly after the funeral.
A former business associate of Mr..

HARrJE LETTERS in DEBRIS.
His Brother Explains How Notes
Were Found.

Pittsburg, July 24.-Testimony in re-
buttal for the plaintiff was begun in
the Hartje divorce case yesterday.
Helen Scott and the letters she is ac-
cused of having written to Tom Ma
dine, coachman correspondent, were
brought forward as an issue. Frag-
ments of the letters We're declared yes
terday afternoon by Attorney Edward
Hartje, brother of the millionaire Ii
bellant, to have been taken from the
sweepings in Madness room in the
Hartje stable. These letters purport to
show that Miss Scott gave Nadine
memoranda concerning what he should
testify to.
Testimony concerning these letters
was only gotten in after a bitter fight
by Attorney John Freeman for Mrs.
Hartje, who contended that this was
not properly part of the rebuttal but
belonged to the libellant's case in chief.
The court, altho declaring this was
true, and admitting the testimony, said
that these letters would have little
weight unless they We're accounted for
properly.

Expert FelcAlol FRAZER. VI IAiiaoel-

stand most of the day, and testified
that the writer of the Dear Susie"
letter, exhibit No. 6. was the same as
that of the admitted Standards
