Foreclosed Under Mortgage
Brought Less Than Cost.
Brooklyn, N. Y., Dec. 7.—The Brook-
lyn tabernacle property in Clinton,
Green and Waverly avenues last night
was sold under f-----1-------y------
in the old auction room in Willoughsby
headquarters.
Charles T. Wills, who held a second
mortgage on the property, was respon-
sible for placing it in the hands of th©
sheriff. There was only one bid, $10,-
000, and was made by Mr. Wills, over
and above the amount due Russell
Sage on the first mortgage. As the
amount due Mr. Sage is $61,760, Mr.
Wills gets the big plot for about $73,-
000, which is $17,000 less than it cost

A Young Woman’s Suicide.
Detroit, Mich., Dec. 7.—Miss Celia
Fowler, belonging to a family of good
standing here, left her home to spend
the day with a friend. Last night the
young woman entered the railway
station at New Haven, on the Grand
Trunk road, some distance north of the
city, and asked to get warm. She had
evidently slept on the frozen ground
outside for several hours.
Later the section hands near Rich-
mond saw her walking along the track.
As a fast passenger train approached
she was seen to rush forward and leap
before the locomotive. From the in-
juries received she died in a short time.
On her person was $50 in gold and an
unsealed letter from a Toronto man.
Her family here are unable to throw
any light on the suicide. She was
vivacious, popular in society and was
well balanced mentally.

His Own Fault.
A Chicago gen tierhan, with a trouble-
some memory, had lately been taking
a twenty-five-dollar course of mnemon-
ics from a professor who has anew and,
according to his own account of the
matter, a thoroughly effective system.
Shortly afterward, says the Chicago
Tribune, a neighbor intrusted a pack-
age to this gentleman’s care, which
package the gentleman forgot to de-
liver. He made a handsome apology.
His neighbor accepted it in good part,
but could not forbear to ask, in a ban-
tering tone: “But how about that
twenty-five-dollar system of mnemon-
ics?” “Oh, that’s all right,” was the
reply. “The system isn’t to blame. I
only forgot to apply it. that’s all. ”

A Young Woman’s Confidence In
Her Lover’s Innocence.
Kansas City, Mo., Dec. 7.—In the
prisoners in surrounding cells for wit-
nesses, Justice Krueker married pretty
Minnie Brown, aged 16, to Wm. Huke,
rested, charged with robbery.
They had known each other from
childhood, and when young Huke was
arrested a few days ago charged by the
firm for which he worked with grand
larceny she refused to believe that he
was guilty and to emphasize her
confidence she prevailed jipon ^her
Brown finally consented and to-day ac-
companied her daughter to the jail,
where the brief ceremony was per-
formed. The evidence is strong against
Huke and he will likely go to the pen-
itentiary.
To Prevent Juvenile Crimes.
St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 7.—At a meet-

The Superiority of American Over
Australian Cattle.
Washington, D. C., Dec. 7.—There is
much of interest in the report to the
state department from James Smith,
United States commercial agent at
Mayence, upon American beef in Ger-
many. He describes the extensive ar-
rangements made in the way of putting
on fine new steamers, refrigerators,
etc., for an (
and points out the superiority of
American meat over Australian beef
as it reaches Germany. He emphasizes
the fact that American cattle so far
imported into Germany, especially
those which come to Hamburg,
have been singularly free from
tuberculosis, there having been only
.115 of 1 per cent of cattle imported
found afflicted with this disease against
a percentage of 1 to 2 on the part of
German cattle examined'at the slaugh-
ter houses.
The report from United States Con-
sul Keenan at Bremen speaks of the
excellent condition of American stock
landed at Bremen. This consul adds a
most important supplement, dated after
the notice had been given of the edict
of prohibition of oui’ meat from Ger-
many. He says immediately after the
decree a cargo of cattle came from
America to Bremen in excellent condi-
tion and good prices were realized foi’
the meat. ___

Fifteen Hundred Typewritten Slieets.
A Half Million Words.
Several months ago an Austin paper
stated that the clerk of the district
court of that city had made a transcript
of an appeal case which covered 660
pages, and said that it was the largest
transcript ever made in Texas. If it
was in fact the record breaker up to
?• steamers, reirigeraLois, that time, it will now have to come off
extensive trade in meat, the perch.
■ ■' " While a Tribune reporter was at the
court of appeals this morning Mr.
Knight, the clerk, showed him a tran-
script just filed which, in point of size,
resembled an unabridged dictionary,
and by the side of which the Travis
county transcript would pale into Lilli-
putian insignificance. It is the tran-
script in a land case from Orange coun-
ty, entitled Long Manufacturing com-
pany vs. Ed. P. Gray, and contains 554,-
020 words, covering 1511 type written
pages. The cost of the transcript
alone was $1108 04.
New York, N. Y., Dec. 7.—A special
to a morning paper from Yorkville,
S. C.. says: The farmers of York (
county are at a high pitch of excite- .
ment over a scheme of John T. Roddy, ■
a New York cotton broker, to organize ]
the cotton products of the south into a .
gigantic trust. Mr. Roddy is a native :
of this county, but for the last few
years has been doing business in New 1
York. During the last 10 days he has ,
been here preaching the practicability :
of his schemes to his old acquaintances -
and former associates and has sue- ,
ceeded in working up a wonderful de- ,
gree of enthusiasm. In an interview
he said:
“The price of cotton is now controlled
almost absolutely by the professional
speculators at Liverpool, New York
and New Orleans. The speculators
handle hundreds of millions of bales
of cotton annually. Their transactions
in imaginary cotton are so vast as to
make the transactions in real cotton of
secondary importance. They have suc-
ceeded in suspending the laws of supply
and demand. The purchase and sale
of hundreds of millions of bales of im-
aginary cotton tend to fix the price of
the 8,000,000 or 9,000,000 bales of actual
cotton as a mere incident and the re-
sult is a tremendous disadvantage to
the men who actually produce the cot-
ton.
“By proper organization the pro-
ducers of cotton can to an extent put a
stop to speculation and restore the op-
eration of the law of supply and de-
mand and themselves realize most of
the rich profits that are sucked out of
the raw material on its way to the
manufacturers. And the prolem of or-
ganization is not so difficult as those
who have not considered the matter
might suppose. Throughout the south
there are already enough warehouses
to store the entire crop. These ware-
houses were built with profits made
out of cotton and are sustained by such
profits.There are six times as many local
buyers as are necessary to handle the
crop and all get fairly good incomes.
As a result of thorough organization
we can scoop in all the private ware-
houses for certificates of stock and also
dispense with five-sixths of the local
buyers. This will enable us to use the
warehouses on the basis of a fair rate
of interest and to save to farmers the
amount now paid to the support of
superfluous local buyers.
“With a large per cent of the cotton
crop absolutely under one manage-
ment and control we can let cotton on
the market only as it is needed and if
necessary hold back one-fourth or one-
fifth of the crop altogether. In case
the mills should try to freeze us out
there would be a constantly increasing
demand for cotton goods which would
advance the price. The price of cot-
ton would follow. Cotton is always
good security and when stored in
our warehouses we could borrow for
its owners enough money to enable
them to keep going until the mills
would be willing to pay the price asked.
Even if we should receive no benefits
from any other source we could cer-
tainly experience a rise in price on ac-
count of the elimination of the local
buyers and the thousands of other
middlemen and the rise in price would
more than pay all the expenses of or-
“I have received more than 1000 let-
ters from prominent cotton producers
in different sections of the southern
states, and with one accord they prom-
ise me their hearty support. ‘Start the
ball,’they say, ‘and we are with you.’ ”
This county has a population of 35,-
000 and produces annually 40,000 bales
of cotton. The cotton-producers have
simply gone wild over Roddy’s scheme.
They are holding meetings in every
i township and have elected delegates to
a meeting to be held in Yorkville next
Saturday.
SPORTING TOPICS.
To Race In England.
New York, N. Y., Dec. 7.—The
World this morning says: Richard
Croker and M. F. Dwyer are contem-
plating the transfer of their racing in-
terests to England. Mr. Croker has
had the matter under advisement some
time.
“Croker and I think racing will not
amount to much in this country,” said
Dwyer to a friend recently, “and as he
is anxious to go to England we think
we may make the experiment.”
It is not probable that a decision to
go would have been reached if the
anti-gambling amendment to the con-
stitution had been defeated. Under the
old law racing was about as pleasant
and profitable an occupation as Mr.
Croker would desire. His horses were
managed by M. F. Dwyer. The latter
owned or controlled several tracks,
and, while Croker’s horses won the
purses, Dwyer backed them in the bet-
ting ring. Frequently Croker bet on
his horses himself, but he was not par-
ticularly successful.
During the coming season, even if
the tracks remain open, the purses will
be cut down and it will not be profitable
to run such meetings as Dwyer managed
at Jerome Park last summer.
Croker now has one colt, by Strath-
uATTEKTIOK.

more out of Spinaway, dam of the crack
filly Handspun, entered in the English
Derby. He will very probably have
some of his Iroquois yearlings booked
next season. He has not decided yet
what horses he will take over. Dob-
bins is a cripple and can hardly be
counted on. Dwyer said he thought
Harry Reed could win on the other
side, particularly in short races. He
would also take over Stonnell, a great
sprinter when he is fit and a horse that
could hold his own against anything in
England. The firm has coming year-
olds that have shown speed in private
trials, and the pick of them would
doubtless be selected.
“We would not take a big stable,’
said Dwyer, “we would try what we
could do with a few horses.”

A College Strong Man.
Bedford, Mass., Dec. 7.—H. R. Nash
of ’97 Tuft’s college took a physical ex-
amination under the direction of Dr.
Woodbury of the Tufts medical school
last night and the result places him
among the leading strong college men
in the country.
His total strength is, in technical
terms, 2855 pounds. He lifted 1003
pounds by using the muscles of his legs,
and 671 pounds with the muscles of his
back. The capacity of his lungs is 290
cubic inches, and the strength of the
same is 46. With his hands he gripped
140 pounds, and dropped 36 times on a
parallel bar.
Nash is 23 years old, 5 feet 9 inches,
weight 175 pounds and has a generally
strong muscular appearance. He has
increased his strength 873 pounds in
the last year.
Jeopardy Rule Overthrown.
New Haven, Conn., Dec. 7.—The text
of the Connecticut! supreme court
opinion, ordering a re-trial of Dr. J. E.
Lee, after acquittal by a jury for mur-
der, the first recorded Instance of the
kind in this state, is given out to-day.
Its main argument is the point that the
old English common law was so cruel
that the judges then wisely held that
an accused, after a jury acquittal,
could not be put in jeopardy a second
time for the same offense, but now that
the old law has been relaxed, a crim-
inal ought not to benefit by the former
practice and justice be thwarted by
errors of judicial ruling.
The Money Recovered.
New York, N. Y., Dec. 7.—A special
to a morning paper from Panama says:
The $100,000 stolen from the Occidental
bank of Salvador has been recovered
and two Germans have been im-
prisoned charged with the crime.
In regard to the Santos case, men-
tioned in President Cleveland’s mes-
sage it is thought that President Cor-
dero of Ecuador would not be unwilling
to amicably arrange the claim. He is
anxious to strengthen the relations of
his government with the United States
and seeks the sympathy of that coun-
try in the event of trouble with neigh-
boring states.
He Bit “A Russet Apple.”
Kansas City, Mo., Dec. 7.—James M.
Hawkins, a farmer, just arrived from
Lowrey, Mo., met two strangers who
represented themselves to be in sore ; -o - -, - -
straits. To help them out he advanced .two years her senior, who had been
them $25 on a $175 draft on the banking —
firm of Clark '& Larribee of Butte,
Mont., which was signed, “A. Russet
Apple.” Finding the draft uncash-
able, Hawkins told his troubles to the
police.
