A Sharp Champagne Agent's Game at Long Branch. New York, July 20.—|Special Telogram to Tue Bee]—The upper crust circles of Long Branch are at a loss justnow to explain the disappearance of two well-known figures from the turf and beach of that American Ostend. Ono is a dashing young French man, whose noble deportment and elegaut attire have won him the favor of the monde at tho Branch. The other 1s Berry Wall, ex- potentate of duded>me. The young French- man was kuown as M. le Marquis de St. Marceaux. Among his female acquaintances was Baroness de Blanie, 8 well-known turf woman, with whom he was frequently seen on the course. Mme. la baroness also know Berry Wall. A few days ago, while riding with tho noble foreigner, she met the ex- king and graciously acknowledged his bow. In reply to the lady's inquiry as to whether he knew Wall, the ©€hevalier de St. Mar- ceaux rasponded : “Certainly, we know Mr. Wull. He is in my employ. He is an agent for my wine.” The baroness seemed surprised, and the chevalier remarked, laughingly: *‘Ho gets 25 oents for every champagne cork he sells.” Next_morning when the baroness met Borry Wall on the turf, sne called him to her sido and whispered with & peculiar smile: 41 did_mot know you were a champagne agent, M. Wall."” Mr. Wall soon afterward was hurrying to the West End notel, and inquired for the marquis. When Mr. Wall saw the noble stranger, he could not refrain from uttering a cry of amazement. Suddenly he recovered from his surprise and then he rushed toward the man and exclaimed: “Mr. Lippe, how dare you assume such a role here and oircu- late such things about me! Iam going to wipe the floor with you.” “You don’t understand your busines answered the attacked novloman, calmi: “Well, I am going to fix you, howled Wall,” 'and ho'rushed toward the depot. Both 'boarded thé' same train for New York. Half an hour later the two gentlemen were seen struegling 'desperately in the hallway of the building i) which the oftice of the United Growers ‘cdmpany is located, and where both Mr. Walt and Mr. Lippe are em— ployed as agentd for a champague brand. Who_got the bestof it history will never tell, but they resembled the picture of Sulli- van and Kilrain after the Richburg fight.

American breweries are, it secms, re- garded as good places to put English gold. Several of the big eastern breweries sold out. Only a month ago the Denver brewer- ies were absorbed. Kuansas City was also bought up, and now the representatives of this great syndicate are at work in St. P aul, Omaha and other western citles, whore large brewing igterests are located. Excopt that which is fast expected interposes, the syn- dicate will own every one of the Omaha breweries within a month. The Rothschilds, baukers of London and Paris, are atthe head of the corporation which 15 consoli- dating the American brewing interecsts under one head in the manner alluded to. A reporter for THe BEe called last night at the residence of Mr. Fred Krug, the owner of the Krug brewery. His son William, one of the managers of the busi- ness, responded to the ring at the door beil. Mr. Krug said that for a month pasta repro- sentative of the Rothschilds had kept at them to sell thewr brewery. They were not ready to sell. Their business was good and future prospects were flattering, as a result of thirty uxelrs’ work, But the matter hi finally been laid before them in such a light that they had agreed to name a price at which the for- eign syndicate might have a thirty days op- tion on their property. Other brewers, he said, alluding to Stors & Iler and Metz, have been approached in the same way and with like results. “To-morrow,” he continued, “we will meet the Kothchilds' representative, and name a price at which he can have a thirty-day op- tion. 1don’t care to ive you tho exact fig- uro we will demand, but we will ask be- tween §00,000 and 81,000,000. This includes all our machinery, etc., he entire business and the five lots on which the brewery stands.” Mr. King was loth to speak regarding the probability that his figures would be accepted by the parties who are here to buy, but at loast declared that he really thought they would be taken up, For the others he could not speak, but believed that all would sell, Mr. King stated further that the agent, Mr, L. J. Maloney, was registered at the Murray from Kansas City, ‘Mr. Maloney was found at the Murray—Mr. L. J. Ma- loney, of Kansas City, according to ihe reg- ster—but he avoided answerlng any leading questions by simply saying that he didn't represent the Rothschilds, wasn’'t buying any breweries, and knew nothin g about it. e SPARKS FROM THE Over a million dtiafls of blackberries will be left to rot on the vives in Maryland, There were twd ‘executions in Louisiana yesterday. $ A.

THE CFFICESEEKERS' RUSH. Nothwithstanding the fact that the hotels seom to ve free from outside visitors, Secretary Windom had scarcely taken his scatat his desk this morning to resums formal charge of the duties of the treasury depaftment when he was met by forty or fifty eager applicants for places or the friends of applicants who came to urge their claims. The sccretary was compelled to ro- treat.into his private office and to hear the delogations in squads of two orthree ata time, There were colored republicans from South Carolina, whito republicans from Tenneesce and. mixed republicans from other states of the south. The southern men seem to be more persistent in their efforts to got places now than those from any other section, and the secretary of the treasury is besieged as eagorly as the postmastor general. These two members of the cabinet are bearing the brunt of the work just at this time because they have more putronage at their disposal than auy of the others, although Secretary Nobte has his full share of callers, who are pressing the clair.s of various applicants for oftice. ‘The state dopartment corridors were quite desertod to-day, and the absence of the attorney general gave the conductor of the elevator in the department of justice build- g a brief rest. 0 said that ho had not taken up a solitary outsider, except two or three lawyers who called to look after busi- ness ®efore the department.

Fred Gray, Max Meyer, the Garneau Cracker combany, the Owaba Hardware compasy allotted to this the Richardson Drug company, Moline, Mil bourn & Stoddard company, and tha Kil- rfl.rlcl Koeh company, each subseribed very fborally.
