Va., Dec. 6 —Miss Lottie Ressenger, 16 years old and pretty, shot and killed herself to-day when told that the marriage would soon take place of John Ingalls and her sister. None of the members of | the family was more saddened by the girl’s death than Ingalls, who did not share the girl’s secret. The young girl had kept it even from her mother. Miss Ressenger was much younger than Ingalls and tad been petted by him while he was calling upon her older sister, Nancy Ressenger, The girl hud developed a deep love for him which she had carefully avoided showing. A school. girl with whom she was very friendly was the only oueshe told of her affection, This gitl, Ora Nevins, told the mother, ‘Then was explained why Lottie had always opposed her sister's marriage to Ingalls, The opposition the fam- ily had never been able to explain, although Lottie had said she disliked Ingalls, that Ingalls was not tle kind of man for Naney to marry. logalls was grieved by this apparent indifference of the girl to him, Pretty and unusually sensitive, Lottie could uo longer sustain the burden of her secret to-day when she learned of her sister’s approaching marriage. She ran to her room and lucked the door. A pistol report was heard a few moments later. She was dead when found, with the pistol clasped in her band. Hot Shot For Cleveland. Omaha, Neb., December 6 —Grover Clevelad’s attack on W J. Bryan, as published in the New York World, has atirred the wrath of the silver Jen ‘er aud the Commoner to-morrow will-ontnin a warm editorial in reply therein. ; After saying that he has nothirg persoual_against Cleveland, Bryan intimates very strongly that Cleve- land’senthusiasm for the Democratic party rises and falls with the stock ticker quotations. He declares that Cleveland is the only man shameless enough to evince such interest in the quotations and also pose asa leader of the party. Bryan charges that instead of trying fo control the trusts, Cleveland has been hand in glove with those organizations since 1888 and insinuates very strongly that he was “in” on the great rail- road merger and made a good thing out of the rise of Northern Pacific when it made such a@ sensational ar- vance last spring. The editorial also says that if Cleveland would take the people into his confidence in relation to his trust ‘and stock deals they would under- stand better what kind of a ‘ reform- er” he ia. ie, Kit Carson's Som is Dead “Los Angeles, ‘Dasember 6.—Sam on, aon of us acout, Kit Casson, was Killed y spider bite. IO Std CUSTCR nOUots Germany Is Pressing Venezuela for an Immediate Payment of Claims. TOTAL DEMAND ABOUT $2,000,000, President Castro Requests Patience and ‘Time, Representing That His Coantry Is in @ Poor Condition Owing to the Re- cent War—Dispositioa Among Claim- ents to Take Harsh Measures. Berlin, Dec, 3,—The published state- ment that Germany's claims against Venezuela amount to $15,000,000 is, the correspondent of the Associated press is oflicially informed, incor- rect. While the German government is not yet ready to publish the de- tails of its demands, ~persons who have seen the papers say the total is about $2,000,000. President Castro represents to Germany that Vene- zuela has little credit abroad, that the country is just emerging from a civil war, during which planting and industry were partially ruined, and that therefore no matter how much Venezuela may desire to sat- isfy immediately the claims against her it is obviously impossible. Hence an agreement on the subject must provide for deferred payments. The seizure cf the customs houses thereby depriving the government of an important means to administer the country would add to the inter- nal distress and disorder, While President Castro's proposals are not disclosed there is reason to believe that they include the emissién of bonds at a moderately high rate of interest, with some sort of a guar- antee that if the interest of the in- stalments of the principal are de- faulted certain Venevuelan custom houses may be taken over by Ger- many. Nothing is known here of the plans of Isaac N, Seligman, of New York, for floating a Venezuelan loan, lie has not approached this govern- ment in the matter, There is no disposition here to pro- ceed with harsh measures towards Venezuela if milder ones will suflice to exact satisfaction, but the Ger- man government is fully committed to the intention to obtain ample sat- isfaction. The clair are con- stantly urging the government to press the collection of the amounts due them, not only because of the sums involved, but it is represented, in view of the fact that the long de- ‘ay has rendered the position of Ger- mans in Venezuela more and more vexatious. Therefore, it is claimed that the government must strike and strike hard in order to properly as- sert the rights of Germans, ts JILTED ACTRESS GETS EVEN. Prince Mirko’s Love Letters Likely to Rain His Prospects of Becom- ing King. Vienna, Dee. 3.—Some stolen love letters may cost Prince Mirko, second son of the reigning prince of Mon- tenegro, his cherished ambition to ascend the Servian throne, for which, in the event of King Alexander hav- ing no heir, he is a strong candidate, Prior to Prince Mirko’s marriage last July with Natalie Constantino- vitch, daughter of the grand uncle of King Alexander, he had a love affair with a Servian actress and wrote many letters containing criticisms on the policy of several European states. The czar and German peror were especially hard hit, while the Servian people were slightingly and scornfully referred to, These let- ters are now in the hands of the Servian government, em- Raliroad Using Government Timber. Denver, Col., Dec. 3.—United States District Attorney Earl M. C@anston has filed a suit in the federal court here against the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad company and the contract- ors furnishing it with ties for its road, to compel an accounting for timber alleged to have been illegally cut from government land in the southern part of this state. Frank J. Park, the timber agent, estimates that between 40,000,000 and 50,000,000 feet of lumber has been illegally ta- ken from the timber reserves. Jast Another Fake. Chicago, Dec. 3.—Reports concern- ing the founding by Mr. and Mrs. J. Ogden Armour of an orthopedic hos- pital with Dr. Frederich Mueller, as- sistant to Prof. Adolf Lorenz, its di- recting surgeon, are inaccurate and withont foundation. Mrs. Armour says that she and Mr. Armour knew nothing about the project. The story was that Mr. and Mrs. Armour wor. to endow the hospital with $3,000,0c0 as a token of gratitude for the curing of their child, Lolita, by Dr. Lorenz. Anthracite Now Ke:nc Shipped. Philadelphia, Dec. 3—The Qistribu- tion of anthracite coal is being gradu- ally extended by the Philadelphia & Reatting~ Raitway —company.—A—few orders from the west have been ac- The Outpat of Petroleum by Country Is Larger Than That of America, A bulletin issued the United States geological survey on the sub- ject of Russian and American petrole- um production says since 1897 Russia has produced more petroleum than the United States. Last year the outputia Russia was 85,000,000 barrelsand in the United. States 69,000,000 barrels. The facilities for handling the large Rus- sian product are at present crude, cost ly and wasteful, The markets are far away from the production, It is said that three and one-half barrels of oil equals one ton of Russian coal, which is high-priced and inferior in quality. It is the irregular supply and the flue- tuating price which interfere with the sale of larger quantities of fuel oil in the great interior of Russia. During 1900 Russia produced about 17,800,000 short. tons of coal, the higher grades of which sell from $7 to $8 per ton, During the same year the United States produced about 270,000,000 short tons of coal. All the countries border- ing on the Mediterranean are poorly supplied with fuel. Two-thirds of the total production of oil at Raku, about 81,000,000 barrels in 1901, now find a market as fuel oil. The total petrole- um exports from Russia in 1901 were 428,657,210 gallons, and from the United States during the same year 1,062,7 306 gallons, by A UNIQUE REBUKE.

The Potato Trade, Imports of potatoes into the Uni- ted States in the fiscal year ended June 30. 1902, amounted to 7,656,162 bushels, against 371,911 bushels in the previous year. Exports in 1902 were 628.484 bushels, leaving the net im- ports 7,027.672 bushels With two ex- ceptions the 1902 imports into this country were the heaviest ever made; the short -domestiec crop of 1881, amounting to only 109.145,494 bushels resulted in imports in the following fixeal year of 8.789.860 bushels; an- other shortage in domestic produe- tion in 1887, when the crop amounted to only 134,103,000 bushels, was fol- lowed by imports of 8,259,538 bush- els.
