He is tour- ing the world for D re. He left St. Petersburg November, accompanied e, most of the party , and like himself, of- | ficers in the Russian army. Grand Duke Boris is a handsome young man 2% years old. He has a very pleas- ant manner, and would not be .detected | from the average globe trotter were It not for the ceremonious manner In which his companions treat him. All day yes- terday the Duke was arrayed in a blue serge suit, the only odd thing he wore being a handsome gold bracelet on his left wrist. That his wardrobe must be extensive is demonstrated by the fact that his personal baggage alone compris- e ninety-four trunks, breaking the rec- ord in this city, the Duke of Savoy, who, on his arriva a year or S0 ago, it wo, being second. ¢ here to guard 2 uring his visit States.

I told you befors, mine is merely a tour of pleasure. . The Emperor of Japan treat- ed me very nicely. e gave me rooms in his palace at Tokio and all that sort of thing, but what surprised me was that he could only talk Japanese. At dinner at night I had to have an interpreter stand behind me, and. our conversation had to be translated word: for word. I spent five days in the Emperor's palace at Tolklo, and then took off my uniform and went down to Yokohama.” WILL KEEP PORT ARTHUR. “Is there any friction at: th time between Russia and Jsmgn}?!’efi:: asked. “How about Port Arthur?”’ At this question the Duke grew serious. “At the close of the Chinese war the Jap- anese took Port Arthur,” he. replled, thoughtfully.. ““Well, then we took Port Arthur away from the Japs and ‘we in- zc_?% to ko@(p !t.r" i e cousin of the Emperor of R: — he objects to the title of tne (‘zar—ur!esfl:s- ed after this remark to discuss Interna- tional subjects.

Sclentists, chemists, druggists and physicians all “took a hand” and the suc- cessful issue is the present product known as “Newbro’s Herpicide.” This remedy actually kills the parasites that infest the hair bulb, does its work most effectively and contains not an atom of substance injurious to anything else than the germ alone.

He sald yesterday that he intended visiting the Drexels at their imer home at Newport and also go- ing to” Washington. The Grand Duke Boris is the son of Grand Duke Viadimir, brother of the late Emperor. His wealth is estimated at $10,- 000,000. - That he thinks lightly of money is shown by the fact that he was willing to be introduced to the game of poker on | the way back from China on the Coptic and lost $2000 at a few sittings without any sign of regret. LIKES AMERICAN GIRLS. The Grand Duke is single and will no doubt set the hearts of many of the so- clety belles a fluttering during his visits | to Del Monte and Newport. He is a great dmirer of American girls and says he ikes their style.” “I have met lots of American girls in Russia,” he said. “I admire both Amer- ican and French women. I like American girls because when you meet a pretty one she is really pretty. I also like their style of dress and carriage.” ast night the Grand Duke and his suite were the guests at a dinner. given by some of the gassengers on the Coptic, with whom he became very friendly on the voyage. To-morrow evening he will attend the grand opera performance at the Tivoll. Yesterady afternoon Paul Kosakevitch, the Russian Consul, called on the Duke, and in a walk showed him many of the principal streets of the city. He also took him to the top of The Call bullding to give him a birdseye view. Jules Cler- fayt, who met the Duke at the wharf and welcomed him to the United States on be- half of the Trans-Siberian Railroad, for which he is the local agent, has charge of the royal visitor's itinerary to the East. He stated last evening that it had not been decided when the Duke would start for the East. L e e e e e 2 e 2 o ) SIS MILLENNIUM | him. SILVER FORCES MEET DEFEAT Gold Democrats Control Party Convention in Michigan. - Former Supreme Judge Du- rand Named to Head the State Ticket. —_— DETROIT, July 31.—To-day’s sesslons of the Michigan Democratic State Conven- | tion seemed to prove that harmony is not a virtue altogether unattainable in Demo- cratic ranks. Judge George H. Durand of Flint, who filled a vacancy on the Supreme bench | of this State during 1892 and who is gen- erally credited with being a gold Demo- crat at heart, though not a bolter in 1896, | was nominated to-day on the fourth bal- lot to run for Governor this fall. Judge Durand gid not attend the convention nor authorize any one to state he would ac- cept the nomination if it was accorded The free silver element made a | vigorous fight to defeat him, intimating that he would likely leave the party in the lurch and either refuse to run or con- | duct a lukewarm campaign. Judge Dur- and was not nominatea by his home dele- gation, the one from Genesee County. His name was presented by ex-Congressman Tarsney of Detroit. Judge Durand’s son, who was here, refused to encourage any one who was booming his father’'s candi- dacy. It was stated that the Judge was out on a fishing expedition somewhere in the northern part of the State and could not be reached by wire. But despite the absence of any definite assurance of acceptance from him and the constant repetition by the silver peo- ple of the suggestion that Durand might decline to run if nominated, the candidacy of the gold Democrat from Flint started out strong and made steady going_ until his nomination was affected on the fourth ballot. After the nomination had been made unanimous, on motion of D. J. Campau of Detroit, the leader of the silver Demo- crats, State Senator Helms of Lansing, who had made a close fight for the nomi- nation, gracefully declared from the platform that he was ready to put his shoulder to the wheel and work heart and soul for the nominee. After the nomination of a candidate for | Governor, the convention adjourned un- til night to allow time for a discussion of candidates for other places on the ticket. The platform adopted by the convention is devoted almost entirely to State issues, the only mention of national issues being an indorsement of the election of United States Senators directly by the people. The resolutions declare that the destruc- tion of boss rule is the supreme issue. They charge the present Republican ad- ministration with getting into power two vears ago by gross corruption and maaip- ulation of caucuses and nominating con- ventions and demand a primary election law under which all nominations shall be made directly by the people. Equal taxa- tion and assessments and the repeal of what are termed the “ripper laws' of the the last State Legislature, which are said to be a violation of the right of cities to have home rule, form other planks. The adoption of the system known as the initiative and referendum is demanded. Another plank favors municipal owner- ship of public utilities, subject to the referendum.

On_June 2 Kipling dispersed a mob which thredtened the house of his aunt, Lady Burne-Jones, at Rottingdean, be- cause she had displayed a black banner inscribed ‘“You Have Kiled, You Have Conquered.” To show his dfsapproval of the attack on his aunt's bouse, Kipling shut up a drill hall which he had given to the public.

Judge Chytraus Modifles the Original Restraining Order. CHICAGO, July 31.—Judge Chytraus to- day modified the injunction issued yester- day restraining the Chicago Board of Trade and the Board of Trade operators, James A. Patten, Carrington, Patten & Co., and Bartlett, Frazier & Co., from conducting a corner in July standard oats by restraining the defendants from ask- ing the president of the Board of Trade to indorse down margins deposited by the complainants, Waite, Thoburn & Co., to secure 55,000 bushels of short sales. The court held a session before the open- ing hour of the Board of Trade, in order that a decision might be arrived at be- fore business was begun. A motion for a dismissal of the case will come up for further hearing next week. The effect of the action of the court is for the time to protect the complainants against any alleged corner and is con- strued as working against the bull clique of operators on the board. Argument was brought to bear by at- torneys for the board and for the de- fendant operators that in as much as bdth the complainants and the defendants were members of a tribunal that adjudicated any controversies between its members, the injupction should be dissolved on the ground of want of jurisdiction. It was argued that the complainants were pre- mature in asking for an imjunction against a corner when no such corner was _in effect, and when the Board of Trade rules specifically prohibited cor- ners. The defendant members of the Board of Trade, in answer to the injunction, denied the affirmation that July standard oats were worth not in excess of 35 cents a bushel and sald they were worth more than that price. They also denied any conspiracy among themselves or with Joseph Bidwell, grain inspector, to corner July oats or to forestall the market In that commodity, or to rafse the price of July oats. They denied that they had given a fictitious value to the article and that they had made any purchases for delivery since ‘July 1. It was set forth that the elevator accommodation and rail- way facilities of Chicago were such that they would allow of delivery of fifteen times the amount of oats bought of ‘Waite, Thoburn & Co. by the defendants and that frequently the defendants had bought ten times as much as their total purchases in this delivery. Following are the purchases made in July standard oats by the bull clique, as set forth in their affidavit: Bartlett, Frazier & Co., 90,- 000 bushels; Carrington, Patten & Co., 100,000 bushels; James A. Patten, 360,000 bushels. Attorney J. H. Monroe, for the defend- ants, in addressing the court, made sharp allusions to the complainants having been of a speculative turn of mind and sold something they did not have and which they did not have the means of obtaining for delivery. He sald it looked as if the complainants were trylng to make money by buying in property at less price than that for which it had been sold. Judge Chytraus, before modifying the order, told the atterneys he did not con- sider the Injunction restrained the de- fendants from bidding, buying or selling or refusing to buy or sell July oats in the pit or from any of thei@accustomed business operations aside from those in connection with the complainants. KANSAS CITY, Mo., 'July 81.—Fred Fal- kinberg, a teamster, shot and killed his wife as she lay asieep at their home at West Ar- gentine, last night, and then shot himseif.

W., WASHINGTON, July 8L—A letter has been recelved by Solomon Berlin, a merchant of this city, conveying the in- in 1905. Berlin’s letter came from his father, who lives in Russia. It relates that .a child three months old living in Warsaw, recently began to talk. The child was left for a few moments by its mother in charge. of a seven-year-old daughter. .The daughter became fright- ened at something and bega.n to cry. The baby -thereupon startled her by exclaim- ing: ~“Don’t’ cry; mamma will be back soon!”. This speech from the three- months-old child scared the girl and she summoned her mother. When the mother arrived the child sald: ‘“Send for the rabbl.”” To the rabbi the precocious in- fant uttered clearly a prophesy to the effect that in one year from that time there would be a great war between the world powers and that in three years the millenfum would arrive. The letter re- lates that the prediction” bas created great consternation among the Jews of Russia. Several Hebrews were inter- viewed to-day in regard to the alleged prophesy. They szgd according to Torah the millenfum is due in about three or four years and they consider the Warsaw child’s prophesy as a reminder of the ap- proaching reign of the Jews, ‘Wife-Slayer Ready to Die. NORFOLK, Va., July 31.—Convicted by a jury of murdering his wife, Willlam Treadwell will not sanction the applica- tion of his counsel for a new trial.
