REFUSES TO COMPROMISE
Cavalier Declines to Give Up
Her Hold on ChanIer'S For
tune for $4,000.

PARIS, September 16-The question of
divorce between Robert Winthrop Chan
Ter and Lima Cavalieri is now at dead
lock. All efforts on the part of Mr..
CHAMBERS family to induce the singer to
consent to divorce have been so far
fruitIess. Nine Cavalieri IS absolutely
firm in her. resolution not to give up a
fraction of the monetary privileges which
she ccnceives to have been conferred
upon her by her marriage settlement.
Sidney Harris, Mr. CHAMBERS lawyer,
who left New York August y. is said to
be now on his way here with the pur-
pose Of making a final offer of $4,000
cash in exchange for full renunciation
Of the marriage settlement on the part
of Cavalieri and her consent to a d.
vorce. The affair seems, however, to
trouble Nine. Cavalieri very little.
There is absolutely no hope for them
to make me back down." she said to the
correspondent. who saw her at her house
in Paris. My lawyer has not heard Mr..
Harris proposal on Mr.. Chanlers behalf
yet, but l see no reason why | should
bargain for a thing which is absolutely
legally mine. The advantages of the pro-
posed transaction are all on their side,
and | have already gone through enough
trouble about this without adding to 1t
a monetary loss.

There was bountiful supply of butter

market yesterday and again this morn
ing from the fisheries on the New Jersey
coast, but 1t is expected the easterly
storm that started blowing early yester-
day morning will cause falling off in
receipts for a day or two.
Buffers are selling at 6 cents per pound,
croakers at cents per pound and gray
trout at cents per pound. Rock, white

selling at good prices. perch bringing 8
to Is cents per pound. rock from to
25 cents per pound. bass 25 cents per
pound and blues cents per pound.
The demand for the fish at the whole
sale market has been good, the recent
cool weather having caused an increased
retail trade uptown, and the market men
are buying quite heavily. Fish have been
more plentiful this summer than they
have been for several years past, and
have sold at lower prices.

Important Seat Of Trade.

Fuchow SEE Is an important seat of
trade in Szechuan province and located
on the right bank of the Yangtze-Kiang,
fifty five miles east Of Chung King. There
is no no record of missionary station
there.
Official reports from China state that
the Yangtzekiang is flooded from Han
kow to Shanghai; that the river cities
are under water, and that rains have
submerged other great areas in many of
the provinces. General distress has fol-
lowed, and the price of rice at Shanghai
and vicinity has reached an abnormal
figure. Twenty seven counties in north
ern Anhwei and Kiangsu have been dew
astated by the floods, and the latest re-
ports indicate an appalling condition
throughout the Yangtze valley.
Most of Crops Destroyed.
The official statements are supplement-
ed by press reports to the effect that
practically the whole Of the Yangtze val
ley is under water and most of the crops
are gone. This catastrophe has come at
of recovering from the great famine of
last year. The river from HankoW to
Shanghai Is said to be dotted with dead
bodies of human beings and animals and
the fields are converted into an inland
sea. Even should the flood subside in
time for the planting OF a second crop
of rice the restitution must be enormous,
owing to the destruction Of the present
crop and the approach of the winter sea-

Millions Of People Affected.

The population affected is a large one.
1t is estimated that between three and
four million people live in the region
devastated last year. and the present
disaster covers many times the former
area. The government officials are TAX
ing steps to relieve the distress, and the
central government has already appro-
priated the sum of approximately half a
million dollars, but that sum is regarded
as wholly inadequate.
The American National Red Cross an
nounces that 1t is prepared to receive and
forward any contributions that may be
made by the public for the relief OF
famine sufferers in China.

THE STRENUOUS WOMAN.


Whatever woman loses by strenuos-
ity must ever be lost by all those who
deal with life in strenuous ways.
If calmness, poise nd patience is be-
coming to a woman then these quail
ties are as becoming to man also.
The strenuous woman is SURPRISED to
have nerve, action. vitality, whereas
her failure In reality is on account of a
lack of all these qualities. Her force
fulness is her weakness, for. instead of
1t gaining her desires. 1t records but one
finale, viz, a failure.
The quiet, soothing voice OF a woman
has more In II of control than the howl
of the north wind. than scolding, fault
finding or the employment Of "protec-
uon." police of ourts
Who cannot call up In memoir count
less numbers of women who by their
strenuosity OF manner, insistence upon
rights. threats of It'll show him." etc,
have ruined lives and prospects for
themselves and others.
Granted hat strenuous men lose,
also. call attention to the failure Of
strenuosity in women, for. unless men
toned specifically. the fair sex have a
habit of thinking hat such remarks
apply to all others but themselves.
Women have power-and their
greatest power lies In sweetness, gen.
tleness and patience-use these and
