that the matter be made a subject of
discussion at next Sunday's meeting.

PAYING TELLER SKIPS.
Cbarlos F. Hitter, of Philadelphia, Sud
, denly Disappears,
Philadelphia, Nov. 18. Charles F?
Hitter, paying teller of the Tacony
Saving Funtl Title and Trust company,
has disappeared. A warrant has been
Issued by the officers of the company
for his arrest, but nothing whatever Is
known of his whereabouts. Rttter dis
appeared on Saturday night, e.fter
leaving a note for his wife saying she
would never see him alive. Vice Pres
ident Lewis R Dick, of the Saving
Fund company, has also received' a let
ter from KUter tn which he confessed
to misappropriating funds of the com
pany, and Informing him of his pro
posed night. '
A meeting of the directors of the In
stitution was called, a warrant was
Issued for Ritter's apprehension, and
an Investigation of his accounts was
immediately begun. The latter had
been teller of the bank since Its or
ganization about three years ago, Mrs,
Rttter believes her husband has com
mitted suicide.
The savings bank ' people 'were ex
amining Ritter's books to-day and up
to to-night nothing wrong had -been
round wltn tnem. His cash account
was found to be all right and had he
wished to make a haul before leaving
he culd have done so, as, there was
J7.600 in cash on tire desk when he left
Saturday night and there was $200,000
in negotiable securities In the safe. The
company is a small concern and even
If it would be found that Rltter has
taken anything, the amount cannot be
large.
Rltter was a quiet man of domestic
tastes, and although he was paying
teller ana assistant secretary of the
bank, his salary until recently was only
(l.ovo a year, when It was raised to II.
200. Nothing has yet been learned of
Rltter s whereabouts.
TAKES LICK CALMLY.
Elizabeth Kelly, the Heiress, Does Not Be
como Excited Over llor Prospective
$13,000,000 Which Is Due In Two
Weeks.
Philadelphia. Nov. 18. Miss Elisa
beth Kelly, the Latona street heiress,
is taklnir her good fortune quite calm
ly. Since the announcement that mie
has Inherited her uncle's estate of $15,
000,000, she has been deluged with let
ters from all manner and conditions of
people. Some asked for charity, others
for personal loans, one for a nominal
amount, with which to develop the
greatest discovery of the age, wniie a
young man studying for the priesthood
desired cnoucrh to complete his educa
tion, and to erect for him an imposing
edifice, principally as a memorial to
her ,und secondarily, for his personal
use.
Peddlers, business projectors and the
unemoloved talent of the city nave
called" with such aggressive regularity
that the door bell refused to work, ana
the knob dangles from its socket, help
less and useless. She has a keen sense
of the ludicrous, and refers laughingly
to the many Incidents which have
transpired during the last few days.
She continues to be the same cool,
practical woman she was, and treats
the whole" matter from a most phllo
soDhlcal standnolnt.
Not so with her brother, William
Kelly, Jr., who Is 24 years old and was
employed as fireman at the water
works. When the glad tidings were
broupht him that the Insignificant bar
rier of two weeks' time stood between
him and fabulous wealth, he Imme
diately resigned his job, donned his
Sunday clothes and has acted the gen
tleman of leisure ever since. He Is
living on the brilliant prospects and
taking life easy.
William Kelly, sr., although mani
festing a remarkable calm, does not
quite equal his stoical daughter. He
now vaguely hints at practical farming,
whose profit is a secondary considera
tion, and is rather Inclined to believe
that Florida offers excellent Induce
ments as a place in which to spend the
coming winter. He has been confined
to his house for several days with a-se-vere
attack of lumbago and was unable
to fulfill his engagements with his law
yers oh Friday or yesterday. This week
all arrangements will be perfected and
the money will be transferred from the
bank In Australia to several banks In
New York and this city.'
For many years William Kelly has
been employed as a gardener at the
United States arsenal, and. being a
man of weak constitution, has been un
able to work for days at a time. The
neighbors say that It was a common oc
currence to 'see the light burning In
Kllzabctn s room at any hour of the
night and to observe her, with her head
bowed, sewing until early morning on
tents and articles for use at the arsenal.
Seven years ago she met James Cal-
houn! a trained nurse at the Episcopal
hospital, and this prepossessing, manly-looking
fellow succeeded in winning
her heart. Knowing what It would
mean to her father and Infant stepsis
ter to marry and leave them, she bade
him wait until a more favorable day.

WAJiT JUDGES ELECTED. .
Resolution Helativo to the Supreme Court
Introduced in the Assembly of knights
Lsbor.
Washington, Nov. 18. A resolution
relative to the Supreme court of the
United States Introduced in the general
assembly of the Knights of Labor this
morning promises to give rise to an ani
mated, but rather one-sided argument.
it demands an amendment to the con
stitution taking from the president the
power of appointing members of the
Supreme court and providing for their
election by popular vote. The position
Is taken by the members of the order
that the appointment of this court un
der the present proceedure removes it
too rar from the people and prevents It
from being that Independent body
which It should be If the laws are to be
properly Interpreted.
There also appears to be much feel
ing In the assembly about what Is
termed the misuse of the power of In
junction by the courts or the United
States and the arbitrary exercise of
such writs at the request of large cor
porations. Members of the order seem
to think that the election of the high
est court In the country by the people
wouia Dring tne court nearer the com
mon people and result In better and
more equitable enforcement and Inter
pretation of all enactments.
Another resolution tha is likely to be
called up at any time is that declaring
In favor of the recognition of the bel

MR. HARRISON IS RICH.
An Investment In African Mlnea Netted
2000 Per Cent. Profit.
St. " Louis. Mo., Nov. 18. Ex-Presl.
dent Harrison Is said to have become a
rich man as the result of speculation
In South African enterprises.
Nearly two years ago a syndicate.
composed of ex-President Harrison,
John C. Wright, of the Chase National
bank, or New York city, and others,
engaged H. S. Sherard, a Montana
mining expert, to go to South Africa
and give his opinion on a piece of
mining property on which they had an
option.
The property could be bouerht for 123.-
000, and if Mr. Sherard said it was all
right the deal would be closed. In re
turn for his services Mr. Sherard was
to receive one-quarter Interest In the
property acquired. Lately the mine
was sold and for his Interest Mr. Sher
ard received 8200.000 in cash, besides
1,000 shares In the new mining com
pany to be formed.
The ex-presldent Is aid to have In
vested not over 85,000, and for it he
gets In return quite $100,000 in cash
ana snares in a corporation which
promises to pay enormous dividends.

ADMIRAL TALKED TOO MUCH.
Elrkland Must Answer for Indiscreet Ex
pression Abroad.
Washington. D. C Nov. 18. Admiral
Rlrkland, who Is now on his way home
from the European Station, from which
he was recently relieved by Admiral
Belfrldge, .will have to answer certain
charges the Department will prefer
against him or else suffer the penalty
of a court of Inquiry and perhaps court
martial. The Admiral was relieved from his
command because of his Indiscreet
statements regarding the Armenian af
fair, aad his letter of congratulation to
President Faure, which the Department
new was unwarranted ana unautfcor-
Ixed on the part of the commander of
the United States forces In Europe.
It is alBO said now that the Admiral
has been Insubordinate in his corre
spondence with the Department, and
has shown a dispositon to ignore any
restrictions which the Naval regula
tions place on all officers, regardless of
their rank. It is said he has used lan
guage to the Department not becoming
an Admiral.
EIGHTY MILES AN HOUR.
Runaway Cars Crash Into a Train at
Great Speed.
Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 18. While a
west-bound freight train was pulling
up Alto Hill, six miles from here, on
the Southern Railway, this morning. the
caboose and two cars broke loose and
went back down the line. In a few
minutes the wild cars had gained a
speed of eighty miles an hour.
Six miles from the starting point the
cars dashed into the Corona accommo
dation train. Engineer Brown and his
fireman jumped and saved their lives.
The passengers received a severe shak
ing up. The caboose and cars were
Bpllntered and Conductor Ruffin was In
stantly killed.
HOLMES SEXSATION.
A Lively Scene at ths Argument for a
New Trial-Attorney Shoemaker Held
to Ball for Subornation of Perjury.
Philadelphia, Nov. 18. The argument
for a new trial for the convicted mur
derer, H. H. Holmes, was heard to-day
In the court of Oyer and Terminer and
this remarkable case funlshed another
sensation. One of the counsel for the
prisoner produced an affidavit in court
alleging to show that Pltezel, the mur
dered man, contemplated suicide.
Amidst the silent amazement of the
spectators and the. shocked astonish
ment of the court. District Attorney
Graham proved the affidavit to be false
and showed that Mr. Shoemaker, the
atttorney of Holmes who offered it, had
paid the woman who swore to it $20 for
aoing so. Shoemaker was so overcome
by this exposure that he could make no
explanation and at the conclusion of the
argument he was held in $1,500 ball by
the court to answer to the charge of
subornation of perjury.
Holmes was In court during the argu
ment, and he has failed perceptibly in
looks since his trial. He has lost the
prison bleach, which paled his cheek,
and a heavy Hush has taken Its place.
His eyes were bloodshot and dark rings
around them told of anxious days and
nights. H1b manner was not as cool,
and unconcerned as It was during his
trial, and he showed an almost fever
ish Interest In the proceedings. As
formerly, however, he retained his self
possession, and took notes of the Dis
trict Attorney's argument and prompt
ed his lawyer during his address.
The argument consumed the entire
day and the court reserved its decision,
but from the questions asked by the
judge it seems certain a new trial will
be refused.
FINED FOR KISSING A MAN.
Arrest of Two Girls Caused by an Indig
nant Youth. -,
New York, Nov. 18. For violently
kiaslng Osias Drexler, a good-looking
and well-dressed young man, Maggie
Keegan, aged 22, and Annie Lynch, 24
years old, were fined if each In court
yesterday. "It is certainly a fine state
of afiairs when a respectable young
man cannot walk the streets of New
York without being publicly kissed by a
girl," said Magistrate Wentworth, in
imposing sentence.
Drexler, who is a clothier and lives on
Houston street, went Friday evening to
visit his mother, in Allen otreet. The
streets were crowded with women, tim
id, bold fair and otherwise. A group of
the bolder suddenly surrounded Drex
ler, and, to his ' Intense Indignation,
some of them held his arms and three
of them kissed him. He remembers
three distinct smacks. Then he
wrenched himself free and fled down
Allen street until he ran Into Police
man Farley. The lutter arrested the
youth's assailants.
"They're what are called 'new wo
men,' your honor." the policeman ex
plained to the court. "They stand on
the corner and Insult respectable men."
The girls denied their guilt emphati
cally.. The court, however, believed the
plaintiff and fined each $2. In default
of the amount they will spend two
days tn prison, pondering upon the peril
attending public and ostentatious oscu
lation, REWARD FOR A HEROINE.

RUMORS OF ANNEXATION
Gossip About the President's Atti
tude Hawaii and Cuba.
HAS MR. CLEVELAND CHANGED?
A Report Uas Been Circulated That tha
President Now Fnvera the Annexa
tion of Hawaii Interest Also
Taken In the Cuban Question.
New York, Nov. 18. A Washington
special to the Evening Post states that
in connection with the coming of Mr.
Hatch as the new minister from Hawaii
the report has been Industriously circu
lated from several Washington news
sources that' President Cleveland had
changed his attitude toward (he so
called republic of the missionary chil
dren, and now favors its annexation to
the United States.
It can be stated on the very best au
thority that this Is an error, and that,
whatever decision he might reach in
the future should the question present
itself to him In the form of a demand
for his approval or veto of an annexa
tion act passed by congress, up to the
present hour he has had no occasion
whatever to address his mind to the
matter, let alone deciding upon a policy.
The authors of the report about Ha
waii have doubtless been misled by
something they have learned of the in
terst the President is taking In the
Cuban question. Strong efforts have
been made to Induce him to take an
aggressive position In his annual mes
sage tn favor of Cuban independence,
and to turn his mind towards the view
that Cuba Is a necessary link In our
North American republican system. To
say that he has settled this question
either way to his own satisfaction yet
would be premature, but that he has
given and Is still giving the whole sub
ject consideration is a fact pretty gen
erally known.
Apropos of this matter a statement la
of Interst which was made by Senor
Depuy de Lome, the Spanish Minister,
to a visitor who discussed with him the
effect of the recognition of the bellig
erency of the Cuban insurgents:
"If they had such recognition, na
tion would expect them to observe the
rules of civilized warfare and stop
burning the pillaging plantations. But
who would enforce this rule? Aa It Is
now, Spain is responsible for the safety
and protection of all foreigners In
Cuba; but if recognition be granted the
insurgents, this establishes a state of
war, and Spain is no longer under the
same obligation to protect foreigners
as she Is when dealing with an insur
rection of her own people. With bel
ligerent rights accorded, moreover,
there would oubtless be a blockade of
all Cuban ports, as the first and most
decisive means of dealing with a state
of war, and this would put a stop to
American commerce with the Island.
I am not speaking officially, but merely
giving you the view of an observer of
the situation."
