NEW YORK, Jan. 4.—A Chicago special says: A small dividend on world’s fair | stock will probably be paid about the mid- |dle of the month. The finance committee |of the board of directors held a meeting |in President Higinbotham’s office yester- | day to decide upon the time and the amount. When Marshall Field anounced that he would give $1,000,000 in cash to the Colum- bian Museum if the stockholders in the worll’s fair would give $2,000,000 of their holdings, it was known that he made the proviso to get another endowment to the museum. It was known that the exposi- | tion stoek will yield a dividend of at least '10 per cent. There has now been subscribed to the museum a little over 100,000 shares of fair stock or nearly $1,000,000, Nearly « million more must be donated before Mr. Field can be called upon for his splendid elt. To declare a dividend seems a trifle _pe- culiar even to some of the directors. What it may be on further donations is uncer- tain. It may tend to increase them after the dividend has been paid or again it may have the opposite influence. Of course the museum will get the diyidends on stock already transferred. Tné& finance commit- tee decided to put off the day for distrib ing the surplus until Auditor Barrington’s report for December comes out. They will then order a dividend of perhaps 5 per cent.

A HIN Cape Colony Might Imitate the American Revolutionists. T TO ENGLAND. PREMIER RHODES AND HIS POLICY. A Number of Persons Frozen to Death in Paris. Sani EI VARIOUS FOREIGN MATTERS. LONDON, Jan. 4.—The St. James Ga- zette, under the caption, “A Straight Tip From Rhodes,” comments today upon the speech made by Mr. Cecil Rhodes, premier of Cape Colony and chairman of the British South Africa Company, in reply to th ad- dress presented to him upon his arrival yesterday at Cape Town from Buluwayo. The paper declares that it would be in- judicious to ignore the language used by Mr. Rhodes. He does not intend that the colonial office shall claim the spoils of his hard-earned victory over the Matabeles. His position is a strong one, and he can rely upon influential support in ngland, and he has the whole of South Africa at his back. If he considers it necessary to vindicate the interests of Cape Colony against Great Britain the colonists of all nationalities will follow him with enthusi- asm. There will be an Afrikander party, led by an Englishman, all the members cf which will be animated by a common re- solve. Perhaps the loss of the United States of South Africa ‘will not come as quickly as Mr. Rhodes imagined,” but the paper adds that it sees a distinct step to- ward separation from Great Britain. “How would the Marquis of Ripon, secre- tary of state for the colonies, feel,” it asks, “if the Cape's government should place en embargo on British immigration and pass a measure similar to the American Mc- Kinley bill against British imports?” THINKS A BOND ISSUE LIKELY. Comments of the Westminister Ga- sette om the Condition of the Treasury LONDON, Jan. 4.—The Westminster Ga- nette, referring today to the annual, report of the American Secretary of the Treasury, says it seems clear that the United States will shortly raise a Ican. It adds that the financial position of the United States has changed strangely since a few years ago, when the government scarcely knew how to dispore of the encrmous annual surplus, The Westminster Gazette also says that there is much opposition to the scheme of the Erie Railroad Company for consolidat- ing certain of its bonded debts. The paper approves of the action of the Barings in |SERIOUS FOR GARRETT. He is a Sunday School Teacher, But is Charged With Assault. Committed Last May After Attending Church—The Case Goes Over Until Saturday—The Evidence. A. C. Garrett, a young colored man, was charged before Judge Miller this morning with having in May last committed a rape on a young colored girl of twenty-one years, named Birdie Brown, living at 951 Q street northwest. Mr. Campbell Carrington ap- peared for the accused and Mr. Mullowney for the government. Mr. Carrington said the offense was al- leged in May last, and nothing was said about charging this case till after Sep- tember 5, when Garrett was married, and then money was asked. He, therefore, ask- ed that the witnesses be separated. The girl took the stand and testified that she and the accused attended Lincoln Me- morial Church, he being the president of the Christian Endeavor Association and her Sunday school teacher; that in May last he accompanied her home, and after kissing her, assaulted her, but did not suc- ceed, but he went home with her and accomplished his object, and then got down on his knees and prayed, as she thought, for forgiveness, for he knew that he had done wrong. She insisted that she had repelled him and endeavored to cry out. She also admitted that she had called on Garrett and his wife after they were married und they had visited her. Cross-Examined. On cross-examination witness said she had known Garrett about two years; that he pulled her over to him while he was on a chair; that Mrs. Braxton was not at home at the time; there were three others in the house—young men—who were Endeavorers; but she insisted that Garrett was her as- sailant. He kissed her when leaving on Thursday night about the ist of May, and after two weeks he walked home with her again, and it was then he accomplished hi irpose. It was after the Endeavor meetings that the assaults were committed, and he always kissed her when leaving. She had hever told Mrs. Braxton of this till about three weeks ago, when she no- ticed her condition and said that she would see to her comfort and would see the min- ister. She denied that she had told any cne that she was as much to blame as he. Another Witness. Mrs. Braxton was the next witness, and she testified that she did not know of Gar- rett’s visiting the girl, whom she had raised; that she had heard of the affair outside about three weeks ago and then spoke to her of it. After she had cried she told wit- ness that Garrett had forced her. Counsel's Argument. Mr. Carrington submitted that the case had not been made out. Judge Miller said that from time to time announcing a public meeting of the Atchi- son, Topeka and Santa Fe Lcendholders for the purpose of electing a committee. FROZEN TO DEATH IN PARIS, Many Kill Themselves to E: fering From the Cold. LONDON, Jan, 4.—A dispatch from Paris to the Daily Telegraph says that many deaths have been caused there by the ex- tremely cold weather. A number of old and very poor people have been frozen to death in their miserable lodgings. Others, despair- ing of tinding other relief from their suffer- ings, have killed themselves, and several destitute persons have been picked up life- less in the streets. An old couple occupying a flat in the Bou- levard Clichy were found dead in one of their rooms. They had ignited a brazier of charcoal, and the fumes had killed them. Many of the suicides have used this means of killing themselves. pe Suf- Currency Reform in Austria-Hungary: | VIENNA, Jan. 4.—Dr. Von Plener, Aus- trian minister of finance, will go to Buda Pesth today to confer with Wekerle, the Hungarian prime minister and minister of finance, in regard to currency reform. There is a prospect of an agreement between the ministers being reached, and this fact caus- ed an improvement in the tone on the boerz here today. LONDON, Jan. 4.—A dispatch to the Cen- tral News from Paris says that it is as- serted that at the reopening of the cham- ber of deputies the government will intro- duce a proposal to convert the 44% per cent rentes into 3% per cents.

Bread Riots Feared. ROME, Jan. 4.—Great distress prevails among the poor in the compartimento of Apulia, composed of the provinces of Bari, Foggia and Lecce, and it is feared that bread riots will occur. Every precaution has been taken to preserve order, but many of the people have been rendered desperate by hunger. Ordered to the Cameroons. é BERLIN, Jan. 4.—The German cruiser Hawk, which is now at Cape Town, has been ordered to the Cameroons to aid the Hyaere and the German land forces in guarding against further trouble. The dis- patch of the Hawk to West Africa is more a matter of precaution than neces- sity, no fear being entertained by the Ger- man officials in the Cameroons of further trouble with the natives. Arrest of an Anarchis PARIS, Jan. 4.—An anarchist named Tamecourt was arrested at Argenteuil to- day. The police seized at his lodging an incriminating letter from London. Death of Baron Crewe.

NEW YORK, Jan. 4.—It has developed that J. Plerpont Morgan is the one who has donated a large sum of money to than Straus’ new charity, the grocery store where articles of food mey be purchased cheaply by the poor. The amount given ts understood to be $50,0uu, in such a case the presumption nad been in favor of the man, and it was time this was changed. It was not necessary in such a case that positive force should be used. Cases were being brought up every day where bastard children have to be pro- vided for, and whether or not the party was a Sunday school teacher and Endeavorer he should be held. Mr. Carrington submitted that the girl Was an tndeavorer. Judge Miller said that Kndeavorers had more influence than the tramp. Mr. Carrington then argued that this was @ woman of twenty-one, coming from the prayer meeting, pulling down the blinds and lighting the gas and placing two chairs to- gether; that nothing was said by her to her foster mother, and he argued that this showed there was mutual consent. He then pictured the succeeding occasions and said that she*had carefully concealed all evi- dence from her mother; all went to show that there was no opposition. it was re- markable, to say the least, said Mr. Car- rington, that the acts complained of were not made known till months after, when visits had been made, &c. Mr. Carrington then read a number of authorities. Judge Miller, after reading several author- ities, said that the text was as to the con- sent of the woman. Mr. Carrington asked until tomorrow to present a brief. Judge Miller granted the request, sta: that the case was here simply for him to ascertain if there was probable cause. If her testimony is true, it was his duty to send the case to the grand jury. The case went over to Saturday, the bail being fixed at $1,0vu, ——_——-__ AN AGED KLEPTOMANIAC. Old Mrs. Nolan of Jersey City in Court Charged With Shoplitt f NEW YORK, Jan. 4.—A peculiarly dis- tressing case of shop lifting came up today before Justice McMahon in the Jefferson Market police court. Mrs. Annie Nolan, a white-haired old woman, wearing gold-rimmed spectacles, with thick lenses, tremblingly clutched the desk as she turned her head backward in order to see the magistrate. Several friends who knew the woman for nearly twenty years were in court to ald her in her distress. Upon the other hand, there were two ‘witnesses Who appeared against her for petty larceny. They were a saleswoman and Ward Detective Cash, who had Mrs. Nolan in charge. Mrs. Nolan was first noticed $n the sec- ond floor of Ehrich Brothers at the gar- ment and fur counter. Mrs. Nolan was seen to take a feather boa, valued at $4.08. This she folded up and put under her wrap and walked down stairs. She was followed and accused of taking the boa from the store. Mrs. Nolan replied that she had bought it. She was taken back into the store. Ward Detective Cash was called upon to take the aged culprit to the station house. Mrs,, Nolan told who she was and sent for her relatives in Jersey. | In response to her message Chief of Po- | lice Murphy and Police Captain Kelly of | Jersey City called at the thirtieth street | | | station and secured Mrs. Nolan's release. Mrs. Nolan has been known in Jersey | City for the past twenty-seven years. She | is a highly respected woman, is well con- nected and resides with a married daugh- ter. For some time past she has been weak-minded and never was let out of the house alone. Somehow or other she eluded the vigilance of the daughter yesterday and wandered to New York. Mrs. Nolan still clings to the idea that she did not! steal anything. Justice McMahon said that he would hold the case for examination. —__:~— H ON A RUNAWAY TRAIN. ‘Two Men ‘Instantly Killed and An- Other Badly Hurt. ROCHESTER, N. Y., Jan. 4.—D. J. Cush- | man and Wm.

Convention Hall in Gala Attire, With Booth, B: = and Plante—Prac- tieal Exhibitions of Cooking. Big Convention Hall today looked like a section of one of the world's fair buildings, and this evening, when everything will be in place, the resemblance will be even more startling. This mammoth room is all ar- ranged in aisles and gaily decorated with flags, bunting and evergreens for the great pure food exposition, which is to open there this evening at 7:30 o'clock. A finer place for such an exhibit could not be found anywhere, for, on account of the size of the hall, there is room in plenty for the exhibitors. This state of things is taken advantage of by the business firms who have displays to ‘exhibit, and they have gone to unusual trouble and expense to make the very best showing possible. The result is that when the doors are thrown open this evening for the general public, with the electric lights on and music and flowers galore, the visitors will see the most elaborate exhibition ever held in this city. The exposition is to be given under the auspices of the Wholesale Grocers’ Asso- ciation, and indorsed by the retail grocery trade of the city. All day long the hall was a busy scene of preparation, and work- men, decorators and painters were hurrying around putting on the finishing touches to the booths and stands, and getting every- thing in readiness for the opening this evening. There is no doubt that all will be ready, and the people of Washington are of the largest and most creditable exhibits are made by Washington business houses. Among the principal exhibitors who have secured space and erected booths for the display of their goods are the following: Some Exhibitors. Gill & Son, candy; F. 8. Keys, salt; An- glo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company; James L. Barbour & Son; Horleck’s Malted Milk; Boston C-:ystal Gelatine Company; Dr. C. E. Welch, grape juice; Swift & Co., butter- ine, soups, etc.; Henderson & Co., wild cher- Ty beverage; Clement Vaiensen, French fancy goods; H. O. Wilbur & Son, cocoa and chocolate; F.

Artistic Arrangements. With the exception of the exhibitors who have their stands ranged along the sides of the halls, each has a stand separate from any other, so that visitors may pass around the four sides and get the best possible view of each exhibit. All of the booths are pret- tily decorated, many of them most elabo- rately, and in some cases they are fitted out as completely as would be a show room ia a store. They are, for the most part, arranged like tents draped in bright color- ed buntings, and in many of them, in all, in fact, where the character of the exhibits calis for it, pragtical experiments will be given to prove the merits of the articles dis- played. Where food compounds and cook- ing utensils compose the exhibit, there will be cooking done by experts, candies will be made, every baking powder will be proved better than any other baking powder, every substitute for lard in cooking will be shown to have qualities possessed by no other, chocolates and cocoas, each and every one the very best, will have their merits and virtues demonstrated before the eyes of un- believers, and so on to the end of the chap- ter, A brewing company has on exhibition a miniature model of a brewery, all made of fine polished copper, in running order, and with a daily capacity of one barrel. These are but a few of the many attrac. tions of the great show. Among the attrac- tions are several expensiye exhibits from the world’s fair. The exposition will keep open until Jan- | uary 25. There will be grand. promenade concerts by the Marine Rand each after- noon and evening, and among the various special attractions will be a series of-lec- practical cookery by Miss Helen Louise Johnson, the editor of one of the leading magazines devoted to the science of dcmestic economy, and exhibitions of cook- ing by electricit; StS es DENOUNCES THE A. P. a. Gov. Peck Declares That the Organt- sation is Un-American, MILWAUKEE, Wis., Jan. 4.—Gov. Peck has placed himself squarely on record as denouncing the American Protective Asso- ciation. In reply to a letter from the editor of the Catholic Citizen inquiring his views in the matter, the governor says: . “This organization is one which ought to be and will be condemned by every true American citizen. So far from representing true Americanism, the doctrines of the or ganization are thoroughly un-American, and if the association is successful in its aim, will strike a deep blow at the liberties of our country. Any organization wiich would deprive men of citizenship for con- science sake must be condemned as oui- rageous in itself and dangerous to the wel- fare of the country. “This association appears to be a rival of the old know-nothing movement, by whicn years ago a few fanatics sought to annoy and subvert the liberties of their fellow citizens. “Among those who are most zealous in fostering and prompting this new move. ment are many who were active in pushing the obnoxious Bennett law. he attacks of | the organization are now directed against one class of religious people. That such an organization can succeed is impossible.” FINANCIAL. Washington Loan and Trust Company. FIRE-PROOF GRANITE BUILDING.
