MAKER—The manafacturer with plenty of capital calmly awaits the coming of the new season. Those with limited means have to “bustle” to raise money to meet current expenses. THE MORAL—Now is the time to buy autumn goods, and the Palais Royal is the place to make selections. ~The Reason Why.

Fraud Among the Discovered. Employes CARDINAL GIBBONS’ VISIT. CHICAGO, Sept. _15.—President_Cleve- land and family will visit Chicago October 9 to take part in the celebration of “Chi- cago day” at the world’s fair, if a plan pro- jected by President Ferdinand W. Peck of the Union League Club bears fruit. “I intend to leave for Washington early in the comthg week to lay the matter before him,” said Mr. Peck last evening. “You know the President practically promised to re- turn and see the exposition when he left after the ceremonies of the inauguration. This was not exacted from him, but was © reiterated assertion of his own volition, And Mrs. Cleveland, why, she must come by all means. Mrs. Cleveland has not Proposed Extension of the Fair. After a conference with a number of for- eign commissioners, the world’s fair direc- tors have called a special meeting for next Monday night to discuss the feasibility of extending the exposition until January 1, 18. It has been understood for some time among the managers of the fair that it would be kept open later than October 30, the time fixed by Congress, if the attendance in the latter months seemed to justify such a move. The heavy gate receipts and sudden increase in the regular daily crowds gave the directors encouragement enough to justify serious consideration of the pro- The director general was consulted, and, while he thought it lmpossibie to tmeke ws extension for another year, he said it might pay to postpone the end until the first of january. A number of the foreign com- | missioners took the same view of the mat- | ter when it was presented to them. They | said that while large numbers of exhibits had been sold for delivery at the close of the fair, October 30, it would be compara- tively easy matter to secure duplicates from the home establishments and main- fain thelr sections entact for two months Notable among all the events that have taken place in the woman's building at Jackson Park was @ reception in honor of the parliament of religions tendered last night by the board of lady managers. Mrs. Potter Palmer welcomed the reverend gen- tlemen. President Palmer of the national commisston,and President Higinbotham was SS ae wpa number of prominent Chicago divines and many promi- nent ecclesiastics from abroad. Fraud Among Employes. The order of the council of administration that no more souvenir tickets to the fair be accepted at the gates is causing much criticism of the officials by the holders of the tickets. The reason given for the order by the officials is that gate keepers have been caught retaining the souvenir tickets for the purpose of selling them. The daily tickets could not be disposed of in this way, but the souvenirs, being good on any day, were asily sold. One keeper, it was said, was found with over 100 of the souvenirs in his possession. The Tribune this morning says: “Evi- dence of irregularity, or perhaps fraud, has the transportation Spares meter the world’s fair. The amount involved be or small. Estimates vary. _ “Despite the assertion that the amount taken is small, the statement was made last evening that investigation so far shows @ shortage of $108,000. Cardinal Gibbons’ Flying Visit. Cardinal Gibbons and a large party of friends visited Jackson Park yesterday. In front of the woman's building they took Director Gen. Davis’ electric launch and paid hurried visits to the administration, agricultural, manufactures, electrical, and mines and mining buildings, taking in La Rabida on their way. They went to the Ohio building, where the cardinal paid his respects to Governor McKinley. From the Ohio buflding the party went to Lady Aber- deen’s Irish village, where lunch had been Prepared for them in the room over the of- fice. The cardinal leaves today for Du- buque. To a reporter he said: “I saw little but the tout ensemble, but that was bewildering in its grandeur. It seemed to me like fairy land. I had read all about it, and seen all the pictures, but they convey no idea whatever of the sight. The sight from the grand basin in front of the ad- ministration building was simply overpow- ering. The entire y sha: ering. party shared my impres- —_. ARRIVAL OF FATHER ROOKER. He Brings Letters From the Pope and the Pope's Portrait. Rooker, bearing important dispatches from the pope to Monsignor Satolli, arrived on the Britannic this morning. Father Rooker said to a representative of the United Press that his mission to this country is a double one. He comes to deliver into the hands of Mgr. Satolli the documents intrusted to his care by the pope. He declined to say anything as to the nature of the documents. They form a roll about four inches in diameter and are addressed to the papal delegate. Father Rooker is aiso commissioned by the pope to attend the celebration to be held in Baltimore next month on the twen- ty-fitth anniversary of Cardinal Gibbons’ ordination as bishop. He will on this occa- sion present to Cardinal Gibbons a me- mento sent by the pope, who wished to be represented, and to present the cardinal with a token of good will and appreciation. Father Rooker said that this is the most important duty which brings him to America. He communicated with Mgr. Satolli by wire today, announcing his arrival, and asking an’ audience. This will probably not take place until the return of Mgr. Satolli from the west. Father Rooker wili spend a few days at Albany, and will go to Washington early next week to deliver the pope's dispatches. Father Rooker brings also the manuscript of a mass by Melluzzi, dedicated to Father Dossert of St. Stephen's, New York, whose mass was recently sung in Rome and attracted so much attention. Father Rooker expects to Teturn to Rome in about eight weeks. ae AFTER THE TRAIN ROBBERS. Pursued in Northern KENDALLVILLE, Ind, Sept. 15.—If in- dications are true the last chapter will be added within twenty-four hours to the his- tory of the express robbery committed at Kessler on Monday night. The detectives who have been scouring the country to the west and south have been transferred in haste to the north. Information has been recetved from Rome City, Ind., nine miles north of here, contain- ing the substance of a message from Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Foose of Rome City, saying that five suspicious looking men had passed through the Lake Shore and Michi- gan Southern gravel pits two miles to the | east of that village. Several of the men had bundles, which may have held the boots. $ soon as Chief Detective Byrne was given this information last night men were dispatched to the place. Two of the sus- pected men have been recognized as Chica- go crooks and safe blowers, while a third man has his home not far from here. It is believed that the fourth is a notorious western desperado. The fact that the men @id not make their | appearance around here for several days | prior to the robbery, and the report that ‘several made their hiding place in a swamp a skort distance from the scene for | several days, foraging off the neighboring farmers for subsistence, adds another link to the chain. , : aes The annual convention of the Crusaders of Allegheny Commandery, Knights Tem- plar, is In progress at the Hotel Lafayette, Cape May. come to light among the minor employes in | NEW YORK, Sept. 15.—Rev. Frederick Z. | BRAZIL'S REBELLION. Delay in Getting Cruisers to Start for Rio Janeiro, ACCIDENT 10 THE CHARLESTON'S GEAR, The Detroit Must Have a Sea Trial Trip. TROUBLE IN COMMUNICATION, a A series of embarrassing and provoking incidents is preventing the United States from furnishing speedy protection to the extensive American interests in Brazil «n- angered by the revolutionary outbreak. The cruiser Charleston is delayed in sail- ing from Montevideo for Rio by an accident to her steering gear; the cruiser Detroit been stopped in her voyage to Brazilian waters on account of the discovery that it was necessary for her to comply with cer- tain conditions preliminary to her final nc- ceptance by the government, and the cruiser Newark cannot leave Norfolk for Rio until Sunday or Monday. These delayt would prove provoking at any time, but ir the present instance they are decidedly em barrassing. ‘The Charleston's Steering Gear. ‘The Charleston arrived at Montevideo yesterday, and her commander found or- ders there directing him to proceed wii @ispatch to Rio, This morning a dispacch was received at the Navy Department from the commander, Capt. H. F. Picking, suat- ing that the Charleston's steering gear had broken down, and that it would be nece: sary to coal before leaving for Brazilian waters. Owing to the fact that coaling at Montevideo, which must be done by meas of lighters, is attended with great difficuity, and is seldom accomplished in less tian two days, the department takes the hopef al view that the steering gear can be repaired while coaling is in progress, and therefore the cruiser will not be delayed longer than was expected. Why the Detroit is Delayed. As for the Detroit, the delay in her de parture 1s due to the overlooking of a regu- lation which provides that before a vessel shall be finally accepted from her bullders and a 10 per cent reserve of the contract price paid them she shall have a forty- eight hours’ sea run to determine her con- dition, This sea trial must take place within four months after the vessel has been placed in the hands of the govern- | ment. The Detroit was transferred by the contractors to the Navy Department on July 18, and it is believed that she could not return from Brazil within the limit of time required. When the Navy Department @iscovered this fact yesterday a dispatch was hastily sent to Fort Monroe directing ‘the commander of the Detroit to delay his departure until further orders could be sent him. The vessel had gone, however, but was signaled at Cape Henry and is now in Hampton Roads awaiting inetruc- tions for the trial and the appearance of @ trial board. The board and the instruc- tions will probably reach Fort Monroe to- morrow morning. ‘The Change as to the Detroit. The arrival of the Charleston at Monte- video and the fact that the Newark will sail from Hampton Roads for Brazil next week does away with the necessity for the presence of the Detroit in Brazilian waters, | for the present, at least. When she is Inaly accepted it ts therefore more prob- ble that she will be selected for some other |auty, most Ukely a cruise in the West Indies. Telegraphic Service Interrupted. The Secretary of State is informed that the telegraph office at Rio has been aban- doned on account of the bombardment. This may cause additional delay in the transmts- sion of official dispatches. Telegrams sent via Lisbon have passed uninterrupted, but the Galveston and other lines have ex- Derienced much, trouble im getting tele- graphic matter 5 Nothing whatever has been heard from Brazil at the State Department today, and the impression prevails there that the bom- dardment is still in with the re- sult in doubt. It is said that no specific instructions have been sent to Minister Thompson for his guidance in this matter. He is expected to be alive to the necessi- ties of the case, and to see that American | rights and interests are properly respected by the combatants. ——_2-+___<£ SEW CH SPECTOR. A Change That Caused Surprixe in thy Post Office Department. Chief Inspector J. D. King of the Post Office Department was removed yesterday, and Inspector Thoma# Arrington appointed in his stead. This change has caused sur- prise. Inspector King is a man of long service and efficient record in the Inspec- tors’ corps. When asked this morning by a re porter forThe Star what the true inwardness ‘of the deal meant, he referred the investi- gator to Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen- eral Maxwell. Chief of Post Office In- spectors M. D. Wheeler told the reporter that he could not discuss the matter. He had not the power to give out information on the subject. He would not say whether King had been efficient or inefficient. Mr. Maxwell said that he would say noth- ing, but that the desired information might | be ‘hud from Postmaster General Bissell. This being cabinet day, the Postmaster General was not open to interviews. It is | understood that there has been friction be- tween Inspector King and the department for some time. Mr. King has acted in some | instances independently of the heads of the | department, and has worked up cases of postal frauds without waiting for orders. He has ulso been a friend to the news gath- erer, and when his division of the corps had hold of anything of interest to the public, and publication would not be injurious to the service, he would let it go. His successor, Mr. Arrington, has made @ good record as an inspector. He was ap- pointed to the corps in June, 1885, and has deen constantly on duty since that time in this division, which embraces North Caro- lina, Virginia, West Virginia, District of Colimbie, Maryland and Delaware, and is ‘one of the most important divisions in the service. During the Hayes administration he was postmaster at Rocky Mount, N. C | He is a native of the old north state. — Has Returned From the Fatr. Superintendent Wardle of the census bu- reau has returned from a ten days’ trip to the world’s fair. He is brimful of informa- tion on the subject, but is merciful to those with whom he is thrown in contact. anodinennnipipibnet Mall Service Advertisement. ‘The advertisement for mati service bul- letined today by the Post Office Department ‘was for tri-weekly service from South Mar- tin, Ind, to Whitfield via Loogoctee and specetgt = <P ERY One Nomination. ‘The President today sent to the Senate the nomination of Dr. Charles S.
