Ko Mutter Hon- Xlcoliius Gut tlio Cheek, It Wan Admitted to He Gen- lili.e, hut Gould Captured It. Chicago, Nov. 2. Lawyers and Plnk erton eletective-s have been In close con sultation for several elajs getting evidence A to defend George- Gould 111 tlie suit of Zella Nlcholaus against liim for the recovery of a. check ivhich she claims Gould got from her by fraud. The suit will shortly come nn for trial In the supreme court of New Jersey. Tiic true story of toe check has never leeu told till now Several Chicago mansions were hired mid furnished by clubs of rich New Yorkers during the World's Fair. These houses were occupied fur a mated period by e-ach of the subscribers In turn. One of the heirs to Jay Gould's fortune was a mem ber of one of th'-se clubs. He had the right to a certain very handsome hoube for two months, beginning with the middle of May, 1893. While he was living there lu splendor he met Zella Nlculaus. The Joint heir of Jay Gould got on exceedingly well with the beautiful blue eyed, baby-faced Zella, anil by the first of July they were exceedingly good friends, lu the first week of July he received a hctk for $40,000 from New York. It represented Ills share of the Interest on" Missouri Pacific bonds for the first six month-) of 1693. How Zella got that check, is not known, but she got 11. and with George Gould's in dorsement on the back of it. Zella Nle-olaus went to bank after bank lu C!) lea co to deposit the check as cash. but was not permitted to do so. In New I York she had a similar experience, and finally called on George Gould, who secun-el the tlieik, gave her $500, and laid the affair before Inspector Bjrhes. Byrnes admired George's management of the case, except the giving of $500 on account. "That was hid, very bad," said Byrnes. Btill be agreed to do the best he could. He sent for Zella and proceeded to "throw a scare Into" her, as they used to call those underground proceedings In the good old days in Mulberry street. The scare was moat effective, and Zella went abroail in a tremor. On the way over she had a good chance to think, and she decided that she had made a fool of henclf. So back she came, almost on the next steamer, aud renewed the attack. Byrnes was too busy atiout his own af fairs to be of much use to his friends. Also underground Mulberry street was go lougir safe and sure, and secret com mittec. snulling about, were dangerously near It. So Zella got lawyers and settled In Jer sey Cityj-and then formally began her as sault. Whether George Gould will let the ease come to trial is a question that cannot be answered. He doe not like the Idea of a scandal that wlllinvolveoneof the lloulili,. Whether Zella will dare let the cite go to trial is jet Another question. Bearing upon this cuines the following dispatch from the World's correspondent at Chicago: William A. I'liikerlon. head of the de ter live agency that bears Ids name. sa.vs: "I don't think that the Nleolaus will ever allow the ease to get Into the courts. If she does, she is not the seasc-cndovveel woman I ta ke her to Ik1, or she is being badly odvlsed. "There Is no chance on earth for her to recoer anything. Mr. Gould has kept close watc'i and made sucli a thorough in vestigation, that her every act, from the cradle down to the present day, is in the K8session of his attorneys. "I remember meeting the girl just once, toward theelosc of the raUtigat Washington Tark, in 1693. She was in the grand stand lu company Willi three well-known women, aud I took a good look at her. She struck me as being more interesting than pretty, and from a subsequent talk that I had with her I should say that she is bright without bcingsharp, has only a commonplace educa tion, but makes the most of this. "Without kuowlng auj thing of the case, I should say ttiat Mr. Gould was never taken lu by the woman. He Is too bright a man to allow this child adventuress to enmesh hlrn." FonndDcal In lied.

Dr. T.Umage's .sermon was on the subject inu American Shear," based upon the text 'from Genesis xxxvll:" "We were binding sheaves In the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose and also stood upright, and, behold, your sheaves stood round about and nmdo obeisance to my sheaf." "At seventeen years of age," said he, "when life is most roseate, Joseph in a vision- saw a great harvest field, him self and liis brethren at work In it, and after awhile a sheaf that he was binding rose up with an Imperial air, and the sheaves of the other harvesters fell flat pu their faces. Here is the great American sheaf', sheaf of wheat, sbeaf of rice, sheaf or.vjriishcnX ,of literary and moral pros perities, nil bound together in one great sheaf. It Is kingly, and on Its brow Is the golden coronal of all the year's sunshine, aud In Its presence all the sheaves of European and Asiatic harvests bend and fall Hlown, feeling their littleness. Oh, the shear, the golden sheaf, the overtopping sheaf of American prosperltyl "The lwst place, on earth to live In Is here.

Willi a glowing comparison of climates In fat or of America. Dr. Talmage dashed Into the-subjects of wealth and comfortable living.. , "Furthermore, there is not a laud on earth where wages and salaries arc so ljrge for the great masses of the people. In India, wages 4 cents a day and find yourself; In Ireland, wages, 8 cents a day; In England, a dollar a day good wages; In other lands 50 cents a day anil 25 cents a day, clear on down to starvation and squalor.

The Thanksgiving servlci -sin all tilt-Catholic churches were celebrated this morning w.lth the usual ikhiiji and ceruuony. At St. Aloysius' the day's ritual included a beauti ful and unique spectacle never before wit nessed In Washington. Tills wns military mass, "coram "iKintliices,". or mass cele brated in the presence of tlie bishop. Tlie first part of the servlco began at 8:45, when the Qonzaga Cndets, under com mand or MaJ. Charles Duffy, formed in line outside of their armory. They were accomiianled by a fiag-bc.irer, Richard Cos tello, and the Bugle and Drum Corps, com posed of twenty memlicrs, led by Francis Hurley. The first comiuuy or the cadets was commanded by Ca pt. J. Vincent Cough lln, the second by Capt. James Shcpley. When nil was In readiness they marched to the residence of Mgr. Satolll, who was awaiting them, and on their arrival, re turned their salute and entered the car riage, which had followed the military pageant. Tho cadet moved down tho street in the most soldierly manner and baited before St. Aloysius' iiastoral resi dence for Mgr.Sutolll lo alight. Tiiey then proceeded to the church, where they ar ranged themselves In rows Just outside the sanctuary, and stood, nt parade rest until the solemn part of the cervices, called the elevation of the host. The mass liegan promptly nt 9 o'clock. Tlie celebrant was Rev. P. JrMcGinney, the deacon Rev. M. C. Dolan, and the sub denccn Rev. Mr. Coylo. The masters of ceremonies were Revs. Messrs. William O'Gorman and Michael McGrath, S. J. Mgr. Hatolli altered the sanctuary wearing the purple Insignia of his rank, and the massive gold chain and cross which is alwavs a conspicuous feature In the attire of bishops. He occupied a 1 andsome crim son throne erected on the left of the altar, and on his r'ght hand sat Rev. Cor nelius Gillespie, pastor of the church, and onhisleftMgr. Bbarrcttl.thi-l'apalscrretary. Rev. P. J. O'Conndl preached the M-nnon. taking for his theme Ihe words or Bt. Paul lo the Ephesians. "Give thanks to God at all times and In nil places." Father O'Con nell preached an exceedingly able sermon, and Mgr. Satolll. who now understands English quite well. listened attentively. At the elevation MaJ. Duffy stepped for ward and gave the command. "Attention," and then "Present anus." The cadets moved slowly Into the sanctuary and knelt in groups of two nmund the prelates and acolytes. The bugle and drum corps had been stationed in Ihe tribunes or galleries above the sanctuary, and simultaneously with the military command they gave the salute with bugle and drum. The effect was extraordinarily solemn ami inspiring. After tlie mass Mgr. Satolll was es-ortcd home In the same manner as before. On the way to his carriage, accompanied by Mgr. Sharctti and rather Gillespie, the cardinal-elect received congratulations from several people who were near by and lie replied lo their courtesy In the most amiable way. He said thai they were most kind and that he would al ways renicmljcr the American people with gratitude and pleasure. The usual choir under Prof. Kubcl ren dered tlie musical part of the progrn'm mot acceptably. Miss Murphv's solo at the offertory was very lieautlful. At the conclusion of the mass the entire congre gation sang "Holy God, We Praise Thy Name-." CO-OKI) I NATION" THE THEME. Dr. XevvninifrtDbscoiirMJlleforen Joint Me-etlui: of WorwhlperK. Dr. 8.M. Newman's discourse at the First Congregational Church taught the doctrine of eo-ordiuation and combination on edu cational lines in church and state. We have entered upon a period, he said, when even theological evolution Is received with favor. Scholars who deal with the Old Testament elo so erratically often, and radically sometimes, aud make mistakes, but the research has been with the pur pose in view of i-orrcctly developing the history of the Jews from Abraham down to the present. In eddcation the thi-ory of evolution Is becoming a central one. Twenty-five years ago there were no advantages for the stu dents outside of be-aten paths; now the idea Is for grouping the systems. A learner or a scholar may take up any one of twenty brandies In the group for Instruction or velopnicnt. history or other departments. Co-ordination aud combination arc the nioltos. In national life as w,cll, this new theory is being put into practice, for which all should be grateful. The term arbitration was formerly a word of little import, and was entertained with timidity. Ultimately all differences will be adjusted in their relationships with national life by arbi tration. In the late great war on the other side of the world one of our own great statesmen was called upon to assist in the work of co-ordination, and In time international differences will be settled, not by the terrible arbitrament of war, but through the better and more civilized method. In the past stage nothing had Its due pro portion. In tlie next all will receive Just recognition. Theological evolution will bring all phases of religious thought upon a common plane, and the best in eacli will bo recog nized. The congregation of the Mount Pleasant Congregational Church united with the First Church in the servieces. There was a large attendance of worshipers. BELONGS TO OURSELVES. Dr. Little Say- TlirmkKglvlnu Day Is an AmerlcnniMin. Dr. George O. Little, of the Assembly Presbyterian Church, ln his discourse at the Fourth Church, of the same denomina tion, before a union meeting, said that since union services had been commenced there had been one pessimistic sermon, and he had calculated to take the opposite view. . He advanced several reasons for congrat ulation of the American people, and re ferred with great cei!fldenee to the evi dences ef progres-Tln this country which are risible to visitors from Europe who come here and study the situation with care.

Note About l'uglllMK. Baltimore, Nov. 28. Major Hooper has decided not to issue permits ror public sparring or glove contests of a professional character unless recommended by the police board. He refused a permit for a sparring exhibition to the Eureka Athletlu Club, which was to be given at the Front Street Theater- When ihe matter was referred to the jiollce commissioners they declined to indorse tlie permit, on the ground that they bad no authority to do so. Manager Kern-m of the Monumental Theater called later to ascertain whether a permit which he held, aud which had been Issued by Mayor Latrobe, for slurring matches, good until November 30, would be revoked. Mayor Hooper Informed Mr. Kernan that he would not revoke the permit, but that his position applied lo new penults. Mayor ll.oper said, in connection with this matter: "The law gives me plenary powers lu the case, but I do not wlh to exercise them except where the exhibition might prove detrimental to public morals.

In addition to this there will be an eight- round bout between Jack Ward, the coming bantam champion, and "Tiny" Bayers, of Boston. Mr. Ilerforel has made arrangements with the railroads to carry the Washington con tingent over to Baltimore at a reduced rate, and the prospects are that a large crowd will take advantage of this fact.

Nothing has b"cn heard 'of the Se-nator Cushman K. Davis bom ror President ror some time. It wilt be in evidence in this city in the person or Senator' Petflferett' ' of South Dakota. Senator Tettlgrevr Is a Republican whif believes that the best Interests or the coun try demand free silver coinage at n ratio of 10 to 1. He has held t.i thin opinion ror agoiKtmany vears. Nopersonalcotisjel cratlons, or rather local Inlluenccs, are responillilc for Senator'Tcttlgrevv's iictsl llon upon this subject. South Dakota prexlui.es very little silver. Mr. Pettigrew says frankly that- he Is In favor of Ihe white metal on principle', and he believes that ultimately the Unlttsl states will change its Hnanciarpollcy w as to place silver on an crpiallty with gold. Mr. Davis is known to be in lavor of the single gold standard, but at thesame time Senator Tettlgrew ami othe-r re-e-ugnizi-d c-iiamplons or silver are urging his nomi nation for President on the Republican ticket. They say that Senator Dam; not withstanding his cold nrochvities. will be r perfectly acceptable to the'silver Interests or tnc west. AN HONEST MAN. In a recent Interview Senator Tettigrew' said that, while they recognized Mr. Davis J as an advocate or supporter of gold mono metallism, they also knert- thafbe was an boniest man, and that if, he wtrtt.elected. President he would be governed by the Con stitution ln exercising the-functlon of his olficc. In other words, Mr. Pcttlgrcw mafntalus that Mr. Cleveland has cxcccdtxl e-r, violated, the tplrlt of the Constitution' In many or his vetoes. It was not the Intention of the framers of the Constitution, so Mr. Tetti grew asserts, for the Prohlent to veto measures that came to hlra alter they had been carefully consielered and approved by both houses of Congress, and werej no plain principle of the Constitution hael been violated. , .,,. Tre-sidentlal vetoes, according to this South Dakota Senator, should be-confined to such matters that contained palpable errors or were passed hastily and by corrupt influences. It was also tlie duty of tlie Tresident to scrutinize every meas ure that came be-fore him fpr his signature, wilh a vie w of ascertaining whether it was in harmony with the Constitution of-the country. It was not the function of the President, ln his Judgment, to set himself up against majority of Congress on mat ters of general, legislation Involving no const Kutlonal pre-rogatlv es. HAS NO TLEDGE. Senator Tettigrew believes lhat SeiTitor Davis, or any other honest man, ,whv might becomca temporary occupant of th' White Iloue, would sign a free- coinage bill or any other measure of financial legislation which might be sent to him backeel with the approval of a inajorilyof both boucj of Congress. Ue does norclaini to have any pledge from Mr. Davis upon t bis point; but It Is the purpose of the advocates of silver to endeavor to persuade the ne-xt Republican National Convention to pass a resolution ilefinlngthe 'limitations of the Tresident in the exercise of the Veto power. He admits that the passing of such a resolution would have no binding effect upon any President, but 'bc-'bolieves nei moral effect would be sufficient to pre- vent a repetition of the abuse of the veto In the past by Mr. Cleveland, Gen. Harrison and other Presidents. Senator Pettigre w and therepresentnt ires of the silver Interests of the West are very emphatic in declaring that under no" circumstances will they submit to a strad dle In the national platform of the l:epubli can party on the financial question next ye-ar. "We have had," he says "all we can stand" of that sort of thing In the past. If the Ue-publlean party undertakes to dodge or quibble upon tills question the sliver lie publicans will withdraw from the conven tion and nominate a Presidential ticket of their own. No, we do not expect to have a plank Inserted favoring free silver coin age. Our demands are very moderate. All we ask or will avk Is for the convention to pass a resolution such as I have outlined. de-rmlng the President s authority in me matter of vetoes. SUBMIT IT TO THE P.EOPLE. "After that wc will concede to the other side a candidate like Mr. Davis, who- is known to be in favor of gold, but who will also observe the principles and suggestions contained in the Republican patfomi. In a word, all we desire Is to have an honest man ln the White House. We are perfectly vv llllng to have the merits of the financial question submitted to the people for their decision. "If tlie incoming Congress should not see fit to pass a bill favorable to the. silver Interests we would "not hold the leaders of the party responsible. Our pulley would be to go back to the people and try and e-lect a Congress favorable to our interests. We recognize the fact that If we cannot se cure tlie support ofa majority of the people through their representatives in Congress that there will be no hope of legislation in the Interest or silver. For niy"partrrnave no doubt that when the question is fairlv prescnted to the people the verdict will be all that we could desire. But If It should be against us wc will subside and quietly await future developments. "The Republican party win be compelled to race this Issue In the next Presidential campaign. If nnattempt is made to evade It and adopt a straddle, the result will be disastrous to the party. IC.the.uuri terests of the conntry or the silver Repub licans withdraw from the Republican na tional convention next year, the Republi can party, so-called, will loie'frbw seven to ten Western and SouthernStates.

"A Presidential election, when It U thrown Into the House, of Representatives, Is not controlled exclusively by party lines". Each State has one vote, andjho vote of each State Is decided by a majority of the members of the respective Statedeli-gatlons. While the Republicans control a majhlty of the State delegation, iris by-no nieuns- surethatthcy wouldflosp irttie line should lie drawn between a sUvcr and anti-sliver Republican. .- "I think that a majority of the Stales as represented ln Congress would cast their Tote tomorrow, other tilings being equal. In favor of aTrcsldentlal candidate who is known to bo friendly to silver; but, of course, as a Republican, I should prefer to have all our diffcrcue-cs settled within party Hues. It remains for the natf.m.ll e-onvention, however, to determine whether tbIS8hallbedonenrnot." One of the arguments advanced as to why Senator Allison would make an available candidate! for President Is the claim thai the silver Republicans of the West will support him aud that he Is not antaconLstio to tho cold men ,ot, the East.

The winner of this Imut can lay claim to the title of light weight champion of America, without a doubt. Lavigne and Walcott have fslly demonstrated their ability to defeat any 133-pound men in the world. The sporting fraternity, especially those who speculate on glove contests, are ln a quandary as to which way to place their money, so evenly do they consltler the men to be matched. Manager Filzpatrlck has informed the officers of the Empire A.
