Joseph Slaviuski, a tailor of Brownsville, Brooklyn, was to have been married to Rosa Marks, a neighbor, with whom he had kept company for nearly a year, in about a month. Rosa is known all over Brownsville for her good looks and had many admirers before she met Slavinski. One day last week Slavinski received an anonymous letter saying his affianced was in th® habit of using raw beef to beautify her'-face, .and that she-used paint to blacken her eyelashes. Slavinski made an investigation and is alleged to have discovered that the girl had wrinkles in her face and for a long time had used raw beef to take them away. Slaviiisla wrote to Rosa breaking off the engagement and requesting her to return a diamond ring and a silk umbrella which he had given her. She refused, and Slavinski had her in the Second district civil court in Broadway, Williamsburg, on a summons to explain why she refused to return the articles. When Justice Petterson was told that i raw beef had caused the engagement to ! be broken, ho said to the girl: “If you have used raw beef bn your face, it’s had good effect, for itundonbt- | edly has drawn out some hidden beauty-” •• • - r ' The justice added that as long as Slavinski had given the ring and the umbrella to "Rosa they were lyr property.

’IIMSmTEW? Colonel Breckinridge Charges That Fraud Was Practiced. WILL SUPPORT THE NOMINEE Say* Several Alleged Interview* With Ulin Were Vnauthorlaed—Claim* to Have Received a Majority of the Legal Vote*—Women of the Ashland District Congratulated—Convention Saturday. Lexington, Ky., Sept. 18.—Everything was quiet last night, the nomination of Owens being conceded. When the Owens men claimed the nomination by a decisive plurality Saturday night the Breckinridge men stood pat. They worked harder than ever. It has become known that their representatives have been dispatched into the different parts of the district to get all evidences of irregularities in voting or counting, with a view to contesting the nomination lx‘fore the Democratic congressional convention which meets at Frankfort next Saturday and which is the returning board that .makes the official count and declaration as to who is the nominee. This committee is composed of one memlter from each county. Owens Men Alurmed. Fayette county, the home of Breckinridge, has two legislative districts aji'd hence two members of this committee, each of the other seven counties having one. The member of the state Democratic committee for the Seventh district is the tenth member of the committee, which was known to stand six for Breckinridge and four anti-Breckinridge. As this committee has dpne everything in its power for Breckinridge in fixing a late date for the primaries, adopting the challenge rule and everything else he wanted, the Owens men were alarmed on finding out that Breckinridge agents were at work with a view to presenting evidence for a contest before this committee next Saturday. Will Make a Minority Report. It was promptlj- announced that four members of the district ..committee would make a minority report Saturday and appeal to the Democrats. This meant that Owens and Breckinridge would both be candidates and fight to a finish in November. Meantime the Republicans, who hold their convention here Sept. 26, began to .regard their unnamed nominee as the favorite, and there was much excitement. Among Breckinridge’s strongest friends are the nominees here on ftlie county ticket and . they, a* well as other candidates, were not disposed to hazard their interests by assisting in throwing out any one of the Owens votes at Frankfort next Saturday. WILL MAKE A FIGHT. Colonel Breckinridge Makes a Statement Regarding His Case. Lexington, Sept. 18.—Since midnight there seems to be no doubt about Colonel Breckinridge making a fight for the nomination before the district committee. Breckinridge last night made public a statement in which he says he secured a majority of the legal Democratic votes of the district and that fraud was practiced against him in several counties. The following is Breckinridge’s statement: “None of the interviews printed in various papers purporting to be held with me were authorized by me. The Democratic committee of the district alone has the power to declare who is the nominee of the party, and when it is made, I will loyally submit to the decision and support the person declared to be nominee. Under the law, and under the rule of the party, it alone has the power to ascertain what votes have been cast and what votes shall be counted and what declared to be fraudulent.” Resolution* From New York. New’ York, Sept. 18.—The National Christian league for the promotion of social purity has adopted resolutions expressing gratitude “to those Kentucky women and men who have so nobly worked and earnestly prayed to defeat the candidacy of Colonel Breckinridge, and congratulating them on the success that crowns their, patriotism and makes it a blessing to the whole land.” Kentucky Women Congratulated. Boston, Sept. 18—The Women’s Rescue league of this city, at a special meeting yesterday, ordered greetings sent to the women of Kentucky, congratulating them upon their “moral and political crusade” against Colonel Breckinridge. COSTLY SPORT. Two Italian Boy* Monkey. With Cleveland Electric Cars. Cleveland, Sept. 18.—Yesterday while a car on the Cleveland Electric railway company’s line was turning into Carabelli avenue it crashed into an empty car which had been standing on the track and which in a spirit of mischief two Italian boys had started down the track. Having just made the uptown trip the car was empty, save for the presence of Motorman John Weilatz and Conductor William Cherrington. Both men were badly injured, Cherrington’s skull being broken, and a big chunk cut out of his cheek. He will die.. Weilatz is internally injured, and has half a dozen scalp wounds. Weather.

L. ---J 11 _ COIN,« OF SILVER. Statement Made Regarding the Same by Secretary Carlisle, REISSUE OF TREASURY NOTES stoek of Whit* Metal Not Affected When They Are Redeemed In Gold—lndictment* Sahl to Rave Been Found Against Havemeyer and Searle* — Columbian Relic* to Be Returned—Other New*. Washington, Sept. 18. — Secretary Carlisle Ims made a statement concerning the cunage of silver dollars under this administration, the coinage being under the unrepealed portion of the Sherman act. It shows that since the administration came into power $1,597,228 have been coined, on which $530,079 has been seigniorage. The secretary says: While the law provides that reduced treasury notes may lx- reissued, it also imposes an express limitation upon the power of reissue by declaring that, “no greater or less amount of such notes shall lie outstanding at any time than tjie cost of the silver bullion and the standard silver dollars coined therefrom then held in the treasury purchased by such notes.” When such notes are redeemed in gold there is no ■ obstacle in the way of their reissue, because such redemption does not affect the stock of silver held in the treasury tinder the act of July 14, 1890; but when they are redeemed with silver coined from the bullion purchased under that act they must be retired and canceled, for otiierwise there would be, after the redemption and reissue, a great er amount of notes outstanding than the cost of the silver originally purchased and then held in the treasury, and this is expressly probibitied by the statute. To Prevent Duplication. The purpose of congress was to prevent the duplication of the currency, which would be the case if the notes and the silver purchased with the notes could be outstanding at the same time. Treasury notes received in the ordinary course of business, or redeemed in gold or exchanged for silver dollars not coined from bullion, purchased under the act of July 14, 1890, are not retired and canceled. All such notes are reissued. Prior to the first day of .July, 1891, silver dollars to the amount of $36,318,264 were coined from the bullion purchased under that act. The recalled gain or seign iorage arising frdm this coinage was ?■(>,- 867,803, which was paid into the treasury as a miscellaneous receipt, leaving $29,480,4(11 to lie held as a fund to provide for the redemption of the treasury notes, as provided by law. Notes Redeemed. At the beginning of the present administration this sum of $29,480,461 was still in. the treasury, and standard silver dollars to the amount of $1,597,223 have been coined since that time. Os this last sum, however,’ss2o,o79 was seigniorage, leaving $1,077,144 to be held in the treasury. It appears, therefore, that the whole coinage under t he act has been $37,90a,487 and that the amount to be held in the t reasury tor redemption purposes was Of this sum $4,121,000 has been used in the redemption of the notes, and that amount has been retiredand canceled. No treasury note has been redeemed in silver unless silveF was demanded, the policy and practice of the department having always been to redeem in the kind of money demanded by the holder of a note. The presentation of treasury notes for redemption in silver began in August, 1873, when there was a great scarcity of currency of small denominations, and there was redeemed during that month $1,373,267, which is the largest amount that has beeu presented during any one month. As shown above, there was held in the treasury at the beginning of this administration $29,480,461 in silver, coined from the bullion purchased under the act of Jnly 14, 1890. Notwithstanding the fact that $1,157,223 has been coined since that time, there is now on hand only $26,189,724. T BEFORE THE GRAND JURY. Indictment* Said to Have Been Found Against Contumacious Witnesses. Washington, Sept. 18.—The cases of Havemeyer and Searles of the sugar trust, and Seymour of the brokerage firm of Seymour Bros., and Young of New York, who refused to give testimony before the sugar investigating committee, are under consideration by the grand jury of the district.. The cases were presented to the jury about a week ago, and have been discussed by the jurymen at practically every day’s session since. A number of witnesses were examined during last week. It is understood true bills have been found against the three witnesses, and they will be presented to the criminal court before the end of the week. All the parties will probably furnish bail in New York city. INCREASE IN GOLD PRODUCTION. About Twenty Million* In Seven Months. 5 Washington, Sept. 18. — Speaking with official information, Director of the Mint Preston says that the increase in gold production in the gold countries of the world for seven months aggregates $20,000,000. He believes that by the end of the year this amount will be doubled. Os the amount of increase to Aug. 1 between $6,000,000 and $7,000,000 was produced in this country. South Africa reports an increase of about $10,000,000, and the balance was produced on the AfricS,u coast. The reports from several countries, including Australia and Russia, have not yet been received. Will Pay the Tax. Washington, Sept. 18.—The commissioner of immigration has received a letter from 'Mr. McNicholl. general passenger agent of the Canadian Pacific, . saying that all the Canadian transportation companies carrying immigrants to the United States had agreed to pay the increased tax ($1) imposed by the sundry civil appropriation act. i To Return the Relics. Washington, Sept. 18. —The state de1 partment is making preparations.to return to their owners the Columbian relics, exhibited at the world’s fair. It . .is expected that the United States [ steamer Machias will be ready to sail from New York early next month. The

7 , ..... . . a. A. ... ... - relics, now in Washington, will be taken 41 to New York in the custody of a repre- j sentative of the state department accompanied by a guard of marines from the Washington navy yards. The Machias will sail directly to Cadiz, Spain, 1 where she will be met by the secretary of the American legation at Madrid. ■ — . \j JAPANESE TREATY. Why the United State* Allowed England 1 to Taka the Initiative. Washington, Sept. 18.—In the ratification of the new treaty between Great Britain and Japan at Tokio on Aug. 25 the United States, for the first time r, since Commodore Perry opened the ports of Japan to our trade and negotiated the first treaty of commerce, has allowed a European power to take the < initiative in forwarding the recognition of Japan as a fully civilized sovereign power. This occurred through no lack of a desire on the part of Japan to accord us first place in such negotiations, and in fact a mutual effort to arrange a new treaty has been making for the past 10 years. , This undoubtedly would have been successful and the United States would have preceded Great Britain in cementinffthe friendship of Japan by wiping out the obnoxious system of extraterritorial jurisdiction had there not been other and disturbing elements in the negotiations with which the British were not obliged to contend. The most , important of these, it is explained, was the question of immigration which has become of importance in the United States just now. Certain eastern senators have looked with apprehension upon the possibility of an invasion of Japanese coolies, bringing with them • questions of as grave importance as the Chinese cheap labor problem. The pressure on this account was sc strong (hat the state department was obliged to yield and require in the new treaty that there should be included some safeguards against Japanese immigration. The Japanese government has not been unwilling to consent to this, but the diffi- . culty so far has been to arrange the terms of the treaty in a shape satisfactory to both countries. Treasury Balance. Washington, Sept. 18.—Net cash in the treasury $126,640,698, of which $57,430,351 is gold reserve. FATAL FIRE. Number of People Killed In a Washington Holocaust.

Four bodies arc at the morgue, charred and crushed beyond recognition, one is dead at the hospital, three injured men are at the hospital and there may be others buried under the ruins, as several of the workmen are unaccounted for. Two of the dead at the morgue are now known to be William H. Tennyson, an old man employed in the factory, and Willie Ashe, a boy of 13 years. James F. Vaughn, a clerk, died at the hospital. Four-others who are missing are HenryFowler, Phillip Ackerman, Robert Belt- - zel and an old man who had been employer! in the factory but a and whose name is not remembered by his employer. MURDERED HIS EMPLOYER. Dark Crime Committed In Mi*souri, the Object Being Robbery. Sedalia, Mo., Sept. 18. —Thomas Clark, a farmer living near Lamonte, was killed last night, the object being robbery. Clark had beeu drinking. He hired a stranger to work for him and while on their way home the stranger placed a, pistol to Clark’s head and fired. A boy in the wagon sprang out to give the alarm and was pursued by the murderer, who fired at him but missed his aim. The team ran away with Clark’s body and the murderer failed to get the money in Clark’s possession. A posse is in pursuit. ACCUSED OF ABDUCTION. Fifteen-Year-Old Ella Pharris Recovered and Taken to Her Home. Bloomington, Ills., Sept. 18.—George Kerr, a young man of this city, was arrested last, night on the charge of abducting Miss Ella Pharris, a 15-year-old girl of Clinton, Ills. He brought her here last week and Saturday took out a license to marry her, swearing falsely as to her age. When arrested Kerr disclaimed knowing anything as to the whereabouts of the girl, but subsequently told where she was. The girl was taken to her home by the marshal of Clinton. Has Not Received the Letter. New York, Sept. 18.— Senator Jones of Nevada was questioned last evening in regard to a lettqr sent him by Chairman Coffin of the Nevada Republican state central committee, asking him to resign his seat in the United States senate, to which he had been elected by Republicans. Senator Jones said: “I have Mot as yet received a letter and conseouentlv can sav nothins in resard to it. j Wlien thedetter reaches me, which will be in four or five days, if such a letter has really been’ written, then it will be time for me to reply. And as the Republican state central committee have given their letter to the papers I presume my answer will have the same publicity.” Echo of the Johnstown Flood. ' Johnstown, Pa., Sept. 18.—After the great flood a fund of $1,500 was raised by business men to pay for the preliminaries toward instituting suit for damages against the South Fork Fishing club on account of the flood. A fee of SI,OOO was paid to lawyers for an opinion, which was not favorable, and at a final meeting idea of bringing suit was wholly abandoned and the remainder of the fund turned over to the hospital. This Will end all thought of claims for damages, as ik number of individuals who had thought of bringing suit will nqw give it up. Myron W. Heed’s Sucoessor. Denver, Sept. 18. —Rev. John P.
