A Denial.

Berlin, Nov. 2.-Oficisl denial is
made today that Prince Joachim, of
Prussia, cousin of Emperor William, is to
marry Marie Sulzsr, the concert hall
actress, following the revelations from
Vienna yesterday of the effort made by
the actress to secure a title previous to
her union with the prince, by marrying
an impeeuDious Austrian noble, Baron
Won Liebenberg, with the arrangement
that she was to secure divorce immed-
lately afterward. The fact that the
actress who married the baron as a
title-seeking resort, has not secured a
divorce, ii is claimed, will bar the mar
rage. Since the publication Of the story
both Prince Joachim and the woman
have disappeared.

RENEWED complaints are made that
inferior coffee is shipped under false bills
of Iadug to Porto Rico for the purpose
OF being exported thence as the product
of the island. This is fraud on the
producers and upon the buyers Of the
coffee. There is no excuse for shipping
any coffee to the island. Whatever goes
there is presumptively designed to de-
fraud. The presumption is strengthened
by The feet that it is entered on manifes'
as peas and beans. Adequate means
should be taken to protect Porto Rico
from the destruction of its business.

mirer # Mr.. Hearst, but it must admit
that the Incorporate speech against that
candidate made in Utica, n. Y, last
night by Secretary of State Root by and
with the authority of President Roose-
welt, will do Mr.. Hearst more good than
harm. Abuse is no argument, and
many voters will resent the coerciTe
measures which the administration is re-
sorting to in New York politics.
