SOMETHING ABOUT MS SUCCESSOR jr.T CABLE TO TnE DISrATCII. London, Jan. 9. Cojiyrijii Michael Davitt is in London. He does not attach any importance to his defeat at "Waterford, rnd seems, if anything, rather glad that John Redmond has regained a scat in Par liament, prcsumahly because that gentle man will make a pretty bad leader. Davitt looks to the general election to tripe out the Parcellites, and Redmond and his friends talk confidently of annihilating "the Anglo-Irish, party" upon the same occasion. Tor the moment law absorbs the atten tion and energies of both parties. Davitt has found it necessary to vindicate his char acter by suiDg the Dublin rarncllite organ, the Itdevcndcnt, for libel. The SCaiicnal 1 Trexs and the Independent are about to drag each other into the law courts for slander, libel and other wicked things, and Ireland will enjoy or endure ths strange spectacle of Timothy Hcaly and John Redmond in their barristers' robes wrangling and abus ing each other before a bench of Dublin Catle judges. A similar entertainment w ill be aflorded in Cork, Belfast, "Water ford and other places where rival patriots are resorting to law. 'Landlords Getting In Their Work. The landlords are quietly profiting by the confusion in the Nationalist i:mks, gather ing in rents without granting abatements, and enforcing payment of arrears in the old fashion by threats of eviction. The Tories in Dublin, who have plucked up courage wonderfully since the disruption, announce to-day their intention to contest every seat in that city and county, and last night they actually held a public meeting in St. Stephen's Green division, and talked jubi lantlrofthe good time coming. The chief orator, Justice Askin, gave fitting and ac curate expression to the lofty principle on which the Tories in Ireland and for the matter of that in England also, will fight the general election. "If," he said, "we manage to keep Glad stone out at the next election, we shall keep him - altogether, lor at the succeeding general election he will be 90 years of age. " 1 food for Tories' Disgust. Similar indecent calculations on Mr. Gladstone's death arc publicly and daily in dulged in by Tories of the baser sort. But the disgust with which they must read tele grams from Biarritz is consolatory to indig nant Liberals, for the Grand Old Man con tinues thoroughly to enjoy himself and to increase in health and strength. The sudden death of the Khedive of Egypt has caused some stir in England, much excitement in France, and consider able apprehension in Europe generally. The French resent the presence of British Foldiers on the Nile quite as much as they object to German occupation of Alsace and Lorraine, and not a year is allowed to pass without a demand, more or less direct and imperative, for the evacuation of Egpyt, ZZ It is impossible to doubt that the accession to the Khcdivial throne of an inexperienced youth will be followed by a French attempt to prevent him from falling under exclusively British influence, which might result in the permanent exclusion of France from a country which at one time she regarded almost as her own. Tears of France at Every Court. The direction and manner in which that attempt will be made is not yet apparent, but there is fear at nearly every European court that France will try to induce the Sultan, who is the Khedive's suzerain, to helo in destroying or crippling British in fluence in Egypt, and should His Majesty o! Turkey consent serious trouble is certain to follow. Prince Abbas, the new Khedive, has been educated almost entirely in Vienna, but he is said to have French "leanings, "-and this will encourage France to act. The English Government now sees what a mistake was made when.in deference to French suscepti bilities seven years ago, the scheme to edu cate the royal youngster in England was abandoned. The only man in Europe, except Vienna professors, who knons anything about Prince Abbas, is Blum Pasha, a shrewd old German who, for a number of years, was Under Secretary of Finance in Eypt, and is now hung on a pension in Vienna. He was a trusted friend of the late Khedive, and has known Prince Abbas since he was a baby. JJlnm Paiha's Views of the New Khedive. Here is what Blum Pasha said yesterday to thsStandard correspondent in Vienna: The F"-ince has not ns vet iriven mneh thought to politieR, for no one could have imas'.nrd that his father, an apparently healtny man who neither drank nor smoked, and was temperato in his habits. Would die before ne was 40. Abbas, at any rate, hoped that lm father would live mauv yeais longer, and so devoted himselr entirely to Ins studies. Abbas Pasha has no touch of haughtiness in him, and is amiable, diligent and devciert to hi9 duties, and, I must add. rs economical as his late father. He en joyed more freedom after his majority than tierore, and was to be introduced this winter tnto u-nna socien. For some months past he hrs had permission to go out with his soeruor whenever he liked. You know Low many temptations a town like Vienna ofle'-s to a oung prince, and as a friend bcl- of his rather and himself, I often watched to see w hether he would avail him f elf of his opportunities, but he remained what he was, before, being ruado a fenk Fachaw b his father, and before leceivinp; lush distinctions from tho Sultan, the Em pel or of Austria, the Queen of Enslandnud other sovereisn lie spoke about lii travels and impressions with an amount of intelh eenco lar beyond his .iRe, and never did I he.ir from liiiu a 'ingle lcmark which would justify tho assertion that he preferred one nation to another. The Frlnce a Cultured Man. The Prince speaks English, French and German with equal fluency, the latter with a decided Viennete accent. He passed his examinations every jcar like any other collegian, and having finished with the grammar school in the Thereseanum he began the study of law. Ho was lately occu pied with International law, beside his mili tiry studies, theoretical under professors Irom the military academy and practical in the way of visltins barracks and attenuing reviews. He is rather bhort, but not stout, as some papers deciibc him. only his face is full and round and Ircsh. But his delicious com plexion, which he inherits Irom his mother gives a peculiar charm to his youthful feat ures, lie is dark,andlookslikea.u oriental but not a Tuik, as his traits are rather Cit rassiau, there being; Circassian blood in the family of his father. His name ho has from liis great grandfather, Viceroy Abbas Pacha, the grandson of Mehcinet AH. I could give you manv instances of his modesty, amia bility and lively Intelligence, but it will suffice to say that he has profited greatly by his six vears' stay in Vienna College, and as Kbedivo ho -will not depart from the path of his lather, many of whose Snalities will bo found represented in him. a subjected himself willingly, and as a matter of course, to tho discipline of tho college, and in like manner he will submit to all the necessities of his new position. The English will havo no difficulty with him. He has an easy position awaiting him. and I don't anticipate any of tho evils which beset his father on his accession. If Prince Abbas be as discreet as Blum Pasha believes him to be, he will throw in his lot with the British, so far as he possi bly can without giving too serious offense to the Sultan. If bv economv at home he can manage io send occasional money pre sents to the impecunious Suzerain at Con stantinople, over and above the tribute which he is bound to pay, and which, alas, ismortgatrcd to Turkey's'creditors, so much the better for Khedive Abbas. Vincent's Fair Trade Campaign. Colonel noward Vincent opened a fair trade campaicn at Sheffield to-nicht on be half of the United Empire Trade League. He speaks at Sheffield every night for a whole week, and then goes" on to Birming ham, "Wolverhampton, Nottingham, Man chester and other trade centers. He will preach a protectionist doctrine, and at those places he will have sympathetic audi ences. But England will cling to free trade lorn; after she has let Ireland go. Though the Tories have an affection for retaliatory tarifls, the workingmen, who would bethe first to suffer from the general increase of prices, would turn and rend the goerning powers it any such startling change were brought about. Lord Salis bury is wise enough to know this, though it suits him to allow Vincent to tell the work ing classes what misery and slavery John Bright ard Richard Cobden brought upon their heads. A MYSTERY EXPLAINED. British Ambassador to Turkey to succeed the late Sir William A. White, who died a short time ago while visiting in Berlin. The Sultan has approved of Sir Francis' appointment. Sir Francis is at present' British Ambassador to Spain, to which po--sition he was appointed December 8, 18ST. TEWFIK NOT POISONED. ACTING FOR ACTORS.

A Kitchen Boy on an Imperial Train In a Plot to Blow Up the Czar How His Scheme Failed Tho Explanation Bis covered Peculiarly. London, Jan. 9. ,StriaL The Ber lin Krcuz Zciinng this week offers an ex planation of the mysterious catastrophe at Borki, in October, 18SS, by which the Czar and his family came near losing their lives through what was supposed to be the effects of an explosion under the railroad train on which they were traveling. A deep and wide hole was found in the railroad track where the ex plosion occurred, though how any explo sives could Tiave been placed on the line, which was carefully guarded, has remained a mystery. The Kreuz ZeiXvmg thus solves it: Among the papersof General SellverstoalT, who was murdered in Pans by Padlewstv, were lound. beside tho photographs of wcil known Nihilists, three of persons whq were quite unknown to the Rnssian detectives. As General Seliverstoaff had been entrusted with the surveillance of the Eassian Nihilists, the Russian police endeavored to And out who these unknown photographs represented. They wero un successful, however, until tho German po lice handed over to tho Russian authorities a man suspected of being concerned In Ni hilistic plots who, it appeared, had been kitchen boy on tho imperial train, and was believed to have been killed. He made tho following confession: Ho had pUced in tho compartment next to tho dining saloon of the imperial train what was ostensibly a clock in tho shape of a sugar loaf and lyins horizontally. This was the maehine which caused the explo sion. As the suzar loaf moved backward and forward with tho movement of tho train, however, tho man feared It might go off too sooi, and therefore placed tho clock In an uprieh t position. TLis done he fled out of the train and jrot safely across tho frontier. When there he learned that tlio catastrophe had failed in the object of Its promotor. This failure could only be explained, by the machine's Ftandinc in an upricht position. a had It exploded while lyins horizontally, it would have de stroyed everything near its own level, and none of tho Imperial family would havo escaped. As it was, it exploded in a down ward direction, and that accounts for tho deep hole in the railway track, which was supposed to have been caused by buried ex plosives. HORDES OF EMIGRANTS COMING. The Sensation or Hair a Day In Egypt's Capital Punctured The Causes Which, led to the Khedive's Death Were Per fectly Natural No Malpractice. Cairo, Jan. 9. A false report was put in circulation here that Dr. Selim, one of the native physicians who had attended the Khedive during his illness, had made a fatal blunder in administering an overdose of morphine, and that when the ruler died and the doctor realized the result of his mistake he had become terror stricken and has fled irom the place and put an end to his life. The report naturally caused excitement for a time, but the fears of those who had been duped by the canard were calmed when, upon investigation, it was conclu sively proven that the story was a fabrica tion, pure and simple. Dr. Selim has not disappeared and is still attending to his duties as usual. As to the complaint against the native doctors who ministered to the Khedive be fore the European doctors were summoned, the fact is they did not ascertain that Tewfik Pasha was suffering from congestion of the lungs and inaction of the kidneys. It is true that morphine injections were admin istered to the patient to ease the intense pain he was suffering, but these were suf fered by the European doctors, who had made an examination of the Khedive and agreed upon their diagnosis. Dr. Comanos has not made a report as to what hastened the death of the Khedive. He has only certified to the nature of the maladies which caused the decease of the Egyptian ruler.

Emigration Apents In Italy Looking; for a Big Boom in Business. rBT CABLE TO THE DISPATCH. London, Jan. 9. The correspondent of The DlSPAicn at Genoa writes that the year has opened verv briskly in the emigra tion business. During the week ended "Wednesday over 3,000 men, women and children left that port for Argentina, and it is reported an equal number has sailed since the commencement of the year from Naples and Palermo. Emigration agents expect and are already arranging for a pro digious exodus to the "United" States in the spring. Tne majority of the emigrants come from Loinbardy and Venetia, in which provinces, as a rule, a laborer can obtain regular em ployment during only Jiiree or four months of the year, and is never paid more than 50 cents for a hard day's wore of at least 12 hours.

Trincsss Marie Not Dead In Eove. ET CABLE TO TIXE DISPATCH.! London, Jan 9. The Czar is reported to have set his face against the marriace of his niece, the Princess Mane of Edinburgh, to the crown Prince of Ronmania, and as the lady herself is not over-inclined to take the place in the gentleman's afiection so recently occupied by Mademoiselle Vacar i6co, it is possible that the unlucky Prince will asiain fail in his matrimonial designs. The Prince is 27 years old, not particularly good-looking, and his usual manner is that of a man bored to death. Indian Offlclals Take No Stock in the Re ported Sioux Trouble. "Washington, D. C, Jan. 9. Lieuten ant Rorke, Second Cav&lry, U. S. A., in Pittsburg yesterday, as he was on his wav to "Washington from Pine Ridge, said that trouble is brewing among the Sioux at that agency, and it ras his belief they would soon start another crusade against the whites. Inquiry was made to-day of the Indian officials, bv a reporter, who was in formed that they had no informatiom lead ing them to believe that Lieutenant Rorke's prediction was at all likely to come trne. The army officer now acting' at the agency at Pine Ridge, reports to the" Indian Office that while the Sioux have not cntirelv re covered from the effects of their outbreak of last year, yet great progress has been made toward attaining a contented and peaceful frame of mind. The Indian offi cials do not credit this rather alarming re port. SECURE desirable boarders and lodgers by advertising in tho cent-a-word columns of THE DISPATCH. LIVING ON CIDER AND EB0TH.

Her stomach refuses for long periods to retain 'food, and her parents say she has gone Cj days without taking as much as a teacupful ot nourishment. For a long time she subsisted on a cup or two of cider a day. "When that refused to assimilate milk was tried and then broths. At present she drinks half a cupful of broth every morning.

The graceful young women and the artistic young men who at tend the Lyceum School of Acting listened fornearly two hours yesterday afternoon to an informal talk by Mme. Mario Giraldy Del Sartc, the elder of Del Sarte's two sur viving daughters, who advised them how to become more graceful and more artistic It could hardly be called a lecture, Mme. Del Sarte remained seated in a wooden arm chair most of the time, rising every now and then to illustrate her remarks bygestures. In appearance Mme. Del Sarte is a typical French woman. In repose her face is un interesting, but the moment her attention is aroused it becomes full of animation, and all her movements are interesting. Sho spoke in French, which, sad to say, very few of her audience understood. But no one was at a loss to follow her meaning. The expression of her face, the poise of her head, the motion of her arms and her hands were a kind of universal language which none could fail to understand. There were several members of the New Xork Society of Oratory present. Some of the pupils who understood French took notes. Training for Every Muscle Mme. Del Sarte began with a brief outline of her father's ideas, and then proceeded to illustrate them. After explaining how nearly every voluntary muscle of the body could be trained to express the moods and tenses of action or passion, she began with the fingers, and said: "The thumb, for instance, is almost a thermometer of life. My father noticed that the thumb of a corpse is always bent inward toward the center of the palm. He used to go to the Tuilleries gar dens on a bright afternoon and watch the way the little children held their thumbs. Then he would notice how the grown women who carried the babies held their thumbs. It was like this." Mme. Del Sarte rose from her chair and folded her arms as if she were holding a baby in them. She pressed the fingers to gether, with the thumb close to the fore finger. "That," she said, "is the way the young nurses carried their charges." She swayed slightly from tide to side, as if she were rocking the imaginary infant to sleep, and the mischievous, careless ex pression of her face was so suggestive of an easy-going nurse flirtinfe with a policeman, that the spectators laughed and burst into applause. "With a comic, deprecatory look of horror Mme. Del Sarte threw up her hands, and said: "ifo, no. That's only the way my father showed me. Here is how the mother holds her baby." Granma's "Way Described. She folded her arms in almost the same position, but spread her fingers slightly apart. Then, changing, she drew up her arms and spread her fingers and thumbs into a tight, convulsive sprawl that was ir resistibly comic. "Grandma" was all she said, but everyone understood. "So yon see," Mme.Del Sarte went on. "a great deal depends upon the disposition of the fingers. 2fow take the elbow. My father noticed that in the army the corporal always sticks his elbows out as far as he can irhen he walks. Xt is a sure sicn that a man -Tiasjust been "raised one degree Worn tho They wait like this." She cot up again and swung her arms in a ludicrous fashion. Then she drew the el bows in a few inches and said: "That is the way the sergeant walks. He has already become accustomed to his au thority over the men, and he doesn't put on so many airs. Bnt still he has to show them his dignity a little, and this is how he does it. The General, on the other hand, who is supreme in the army and who knows his word is law, walks along with his arms hanging unostentatiously at his side, like this, and therein, to a great degree, lies his dignity of deportment." "Now, my father in laving out his prin ciples of gestures of the arm began bv making two lines, a vertical and a horizontal." Emotions bv Head and Ryes. Sniting the action to the word Mme. Del Sarte drew her arm straight up and down and then across. Then she made circles and quadrants with each arm until a com plicated geometrical diagram stood com plete in the air. Then she explained the meaning of the gesture which resulted when the arm was put through each of these lines and then their combinations. Mme. Del Sarte explained the emotions which could be expressed by the position of the head and eyes alone. Astonishment, tenderness, love, pride, horror, rage she expressed them all without uttering a word or raising an arm. ""Without understanding these princi ples," she said, "it is impossible to express any of the passions or feelings. Imagine a lover saying, 'I love you."' She threw her head back and tried to screw up a look of tenderness, but the audience laughed. "Exactly," she continued. "Now sup posing he throws his head forward, like this, and smiles so and so 'Je t'aiinel' " There was a burst of applause. "That's how it is. My father spent a whole day repeating the sentence, 5Il est beau, a chien. (That dog is beautiful.') Tou can hardly imagine in how may ways mis simple sentence may be expressed. Mme. Del Sarte tried it in half a dozen ways that were all expressive, but differing greatly fiom one another. She then ex plained how the idea of srandeur could be expressed by the hands and how the various degrees of size could best be expressed by gesture. Much learned Trom Gladiators. "My father always said that lie learned a great deal irom the pose ot the gladiator, in the statue which all of you doubtlessly have seen. It is like this." She arose, stretched one arm before her and the other behind, and bent her head forward. She laughed cheerily as she said: "It isn't a very imposing attitude for a woman, but in a man I think it is a splendid pose. You will observe how the forward arm expresses strength and power." After some further discourse on the sub ject, she said: "I am going to-recite for you Lafontaine'a fable of the rat that came out into the world and marveled at its size. Probably many of you will not understand the words, but I trust the gestures will make them clear to BLAINE AND RECIPROCITY THE MAN AND THE WATCHWORD FOR A NEl ORGANIZATION. A Now Political Secret Society, Independent or Party, Formed in the West The Pro moters and tho Objects of the Continen tal Eeagne. Chicago, Jan. 9. A new political or ganization has been formed. Reciprocity is its platform and Blaine is its chic It is a combination of laboring men in the pro- tected trades, farmers who are not in or are weary of the Alliance, and Democrats and Republicans generally who believe in Blaine and a protective tarifE The organization is secret and oath-bound. Each member must subscribe to a ritual that fixes his opinions on certain questions In black and white. It claims 500 members in Chicago. Outside of Chicago the organi zation, it is said, has 75,000 members. En campments, or lodges, are to be organized in every city in the land, aud old-time politi cal associations are to be laid aside. In the "West and Southwest it embraces everyone who is partial to Mr. Blaineand reciprocity, and it is organized under the general name of "Knights of Reciprocity." In the East, where there is no Farmers' Alliance to bar the way to success, the organization is called the "Continental League." This par ticular branch of the movement was in tended to exist in cities and large towns almost exclusively. Ex-Assistant P'ostmaster General Clark sou is said to have conceived the idea of the organization, and Patrick Ford, editor of the Irish World, of New York, is credited with assisting him in working outside de tails. In the great cities other difficulties besides those in connection with the tariff had to be considered. There were so-called "deputies," and other orders of like char acter, which are supposed, to hate Mr. Blaine. To offset these Mr. Ford hit upon the Continental League scheme. Its main principles are reciprocity and opposition to the theories of the "deputies." the emphasis to bo laid on the latter point. Outwardly this is to be its apparent object. THE DOMINION NOT IN IT.

There is no longer any serious doubt that the Canadian Pacific means to desert Manitoba and On tario and run its trains through North Dakota, Minnesota and "Wisconsin. The Canadian Pacific owns a controlling inter est in the "Soo" line, and the latter will be utilized'by the Canadian company in bring ing traffic" through the United States. The Canadian Pacific is constructing a line in a southerly direction from Regina, and this line will connect with the Valley City ex tension of the Soo. "When this connection is made there will be a continuous track from Vancouver by way of Regina, Valley City, Minneapolis and Sault Ste. Marie to Halifax on the the Atlantic coast. The Canadian Pacific will abandon the line through Ontario along the northern shore of Lake Superior, chiefly because the immense amount of snow in that region has frequently caused a tie-up over the entire transcontinental line.

Her case is puzzling the physicians, be cause the signs of life are not pronounced enough to make it certain that life has not fled, yet they are of such a character as to lead the doctors to believe that the woman still lives. In the meantime efforts are being made to arouse, if possible, the ap parently sleeping woman from her uncon scious condition.

A resolution was also paf ed, asking the officials not to receive such freight for shipment. If any such freight be brought it is thought the men will quit before handling it. The employes of the Great Northern Railway Company have taken similar action, giving notice to the company that 36 hours after notification no Aransas Pass freight would be touched.

The decision of Judge Tuley in Chicago the other day by which the will of Georga P. Pomeroy was sustained and his property, consisting of about 51,000,000, was bequeathed to his son, Eugene Pomeroy, a boy of 10 years residing with his grandmother in this city, fur nishes another chapter in one of the most interesting stories thaf ever has been enacted in real life in this or any other country. , The points in this story are both romantic and tragic and involve the famous Cowles family of this city. ' Hon. Edwin Cowles was founder and edi tor of the daily Leader of this city. He was a man of very strong personality and strik ing ability in certain directions. Mr. 'Cowles-years ago conceived a most violent dislike to thve Roman Catholic Church. He believed that its tendencies were dangerous and that it would eventually overturn the republic unless it were checked. Bitter Fight Asalnst the Church. He devoted his paper in season and out to fighting this great religious organization. He talked of the subject at home and abroad. He organized a secret society known as the "Order of the American Union," with the avowed purpose of keep ing Roman Catholics out of office. This organization grew very rapidly for some months, and at first seemed likely to rival the great Know Nothing party "of S3 years ago. Mr. Cowles had a favorite daughter Helen, upon whom he lavished his affections. He devoted much time and expense to giving her a liberal education. At the close of her educational career in this country Helen was sent to Europe to round out her accom plishments by travel, observation and for eign study. Bright, handsome, vivacious, Helen at tracted attention anywhere and everywhere she went. In Paris she became acquainted with a young man of noble birth elegant in dress, handsome and intelligent. It was a case of mutual attraction and soon ripened into genuine love on the part of both. Love's Triumph Over Religion. But the young man had been bom and bred a- Roman Catholic. He- cared very little for the hereditary religion of his fam ily but he recognized it simply as a great and ancient custom. Helen Cowles, born and bred into a hatred of the Church of Rome, forgot it all in her love of the young Frenchman who filled her girlish sonl with all that was gallant, true and noble in this life. An engagement to be married was en tered into. "When Mr. Cowles learned that his favor ite daughter was engaged to a Roman Cath olic, he was well nigh crazed with grief and anger. He immediately went to Europe and pleaded with and threatened his daugh ter. Helen was taken from France. A long course of travel was marked out for her and finally the engagement was broken ofl. From that time Helen Cowles was a dif ferent person. She had much of the dispo sition of her father. She was very strong in her affections and equally strong in her dis likes. Converted to the F.otnan Faith. "While in this frame of mind she became acquainted with a young Jesuit who, it is said, began to present to her mind the claims of the Roman Catholic Church. The skill and patience displayed in this matter were characteristic of the'order to which he belonged. Gradually Helen's prejudices were over come. She was led forward into an under standing of the claims of the church. She was induced to make a trip to Rome, where she was shown marked attention and the historical claims aud evidences were pre sented. In her disappointed and heartbroken condition it seemed to her- that there would be consolation for her in the bosom of the Mother Church. At any rate she was con verted andbaptized into the Catholic church in the historical city of Rome. This was of course a terrible blow to her father. He could scarcely believe i t possible. He would not accept its truth until he had had the declaration from Helen's own mouth. At first Miss Cowles was mucn impressed with the idea of entering a convent. But she was prevented from doing this through the intervention of friends. Wedded to a Disinherited Son. Subsequently she met Mr. George P. Tomeroy, who was an attache of the American legation in .Fans. Air. pomeroy belonged to a wealthy New Jersey familv. He had been practically disinherited and He was wholly dependent upon his salary for support. The Cowlet family encouraged the ac quaintance of Mr. Pomeroy and Helen and although he was some years her senior they were married. Mr. Pomeroy, through the influence of Mr. Cowles, was appointed Secretary of Legation at Paris and later Consul at Cairo, Egypt, by President Arthur. Helen Cowles Pomeroy, a short time after her marriage, fell into a gradual de cline and only lived a few year. Mean while a son was born to 3Ir. and Mrs. Pom eroy, who is now living with his grand mother, Mrs. Edwin Cowles, in this city. He is about 10 years old a bright and in telligent boy. Millions He Never Enjoyed. In 1887, thronch the death of hU brother Edward, George P. Pomeroy became a millionaire. But meanwhile his health was shattered and a few months subsequently he died, leaving behind him the will which" has been the subject of the recent litization in Judge Tuley's Court in Chicago. The singular point was disclosed in the trial that the suit which was brought in Eugene Pomeroy's name ostensibly to break the will and to disinherit the young man, was really not brought in his interest at all, but in that of the two sisters of Mr. Pomerov, who desired to recover the prop erty. Judge Tuley decided to sustain the will, and young Eugene, if he lives to be 21 years old, will become a millionaire. OLD FACES IN NEW PLACES.

Grant were entire strangers to each other per sonally until March 9, 1864, when Lincoln handed Grant his commission as Lieutenant General, which made him Com mander in Chief of all the armies of the Union three day s later. Although Grant entered tha army as a citi- Grant. zefl of Lincoln's own State, he had resided there only a littler more than a year. "When he retired from the arniy by resignation on July 31, 1834, as a Captain, be selected Missouri as his homo and settled on a farm near St. Louis. Ho had won promotion at the battles of Molino del Rey and Chapultepec fn the 'Mexican war, and was brevetted for special gallantry. During the nearly seven years between his retirement from the army and re-entering the military service at the beginning of the Civil "War, he had done little or nothing to make himself known to fame. He had moved from Missouri to Galena early in 18C0 to improve his worldly condition br accepting a salary of $600 from his two brothers, who were then engaged in tha leather business. Grant's Ambition In 'Sixty. After remaining with them for a year his salary was advanced to $300, and in a letter to a friend he exhibited his gratification at his business success and expressed the hopo of reaching what then seemed to be hU highest ambition a partnership in the firm. His life in Galena was quiet and unobtru sive as was Grant's habit under all circum stances; and when the first call for troops was issued and Grant brought a company from Galena to Springfield without any friends to press his promotion, it is not sur prising that, while political colonels wero turned out with great rapidity, Giant re mained without a command. He served on tho staff of Governor Yafes for several weeks, givinz him the benefit of his mili tary experience in organizing new troops, but it does not seem to have occurred to Giant to suggest his own appointment to a command or to Governor Yates to tender him one. He returned" to Galena, and on the 24th of May, 1861, sent a formal request to the Ad jutant General of the army at "Washington, for an assignment to military duty "until the close of the war in such capacitv asmav he offered." To this no reply was ever re ceived and a month later he made a personal visit to General McCIellan's headquarters, then in command of the Ohio volunteers at Cincinnati, hopintr that McCIellan would tender him a position on his staff; but ho failed to meet McCIellan and returned home without suggesting to anyone a desire to enter the service under the Cincinnati commander. IIott Grant Got His Chance. It was a wayward and insubordinate regi ment at Springfield that called Grant baclc to the military service and started him on his matchless career. The Twenty-first Il linois defied the efforts of Governor Yates to reduce it to discipline; and, in despair,he telegraphed to the modest Captain Grant at Galena, asking him to come and accept tho Colonelcy. The prompt answer came: "I accept the regiment and will start imme diately." It is needless to say that the ap pearance of a plain, unnniformed and mod est man like Grant made little impression at first upon his insubordinate command, but in a very short time he made it the best disciplined regiment from the State, and the men as proud of their commander as he was of them. The story of Grant's military achieve ments from Belmont to Shiloh is familiar to every reader of American history. It was his sententious answer to General Buckner at Fort Donelson that proclaimed to tha nation his heroic qualities as a military commander. He said: "No terms ex cept unconditional and immediate surren der can be accepted; I propose to move im mediately upon yonr works." He soon be came known as "Unconditional Snrrcnder Grant," and while his superior officers, in cluding General in Chief McCIellan and his immediate division commander, Halleck, seemed to agree only in hindering Grant in his military movements, the country pro foundly appreciated his victories. Dis;raced Only to Re Honored. Soon after the capture of Nashville he was ordered by Halleck to make a new military movement that was rendered impossible by immense floods which prevailed in the "Western waters. Halleck reported him to McCIellan, complaining that he had left his post without leave and had failed to make reports, eta, to which McCIellan replied: "Do not hesitate to arrest him at once if the good of the service requires it and pldfce C. F. Smith in command." Halleck immedi ately relieved Grant and placed Smith in command of the proposed expedition. Grant gave a temperate explanation of the injus tice done to him. but as the wrong was con- tinued he asked to be relieved from duty. In the meantime Halleck had discovered his error and atoned for it bv answering to Grant: "Instead of relieving you, I wish you, as soon as yeur new army is in tho field, to assume the immediate command and lead it on to new victories." It was not until after the battle of Shiloh, fought on the Gth and 7th of April, 1862, that Lincoln was placed in a position to ex ercise a controlling influence in shaping the destiny of Grant. The first day's battle at Shiloh was a serious disaster to the Union army commanded by Grant, who was driven from his position that seems to have been selected without any special reference to re sisting an attack from tho enemy, and, al though his army fought most gallantly in various separate encounters, the day closed with the field in possession of the- enemy and Grant's army driven back to the riverl A Wave or Cnjnst Indignation. Fortunately, the advance of Buell's army formed a junction with Grant late in the evening, and that night all of Buell's army arrived, consisting of three divisions. The two Generals arranged their plans for an of fensive movement early the next morning, and, after another stubborn battle, the lost field was regained and the enemy compelled to retreat with the loss of its commander, A"- &.&jjxm2id&Lkx&s2
