A Fashionable Divorce Suit At Newport. THE STATE OF BUSINESS. Verr Favorable Showing at tbe Opening- of the New Tear. Nkw York, Jan. 7.-K. O. Dnn & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: The new year opens with higher prices. Wheat has ad vanced 1 1-2 cents this week on sales of 25,- 000,000 bushels. Oil has advanced one cent on sales of one million barrels; cotton rises 1-18; hogs, coffee, iron and silver are higher. Corn and oats hive bean a little weaker and large realizing by foreigners has checked the tendency to advance in stocks. Bat the ex pansion of the currency and the investment of large dividends received and large profits realized tend to lift prices for the present in spite of fears regarding legislation. Since August 1 the treasury has added $22,497,088 to the gold certificates outstanding and $29, 682,626 to the silver certificates and about $7,000,000 to the standard silver dollars. Bank circulation has decreased $10,290,461 and the legal tenders not in the treasury have diminished $1,230,184. Thus a net ad dition of about $48,000,000 to the currency has been made in five months, over 5 1-2 per cent., not counting the addition to the gold in circulation. Following an expansion of $500,000,000 since 1878 this makes the circu lation per capita the largest ever reached. It is now to be noticed that silver dollars begin to go back to the treas ury in place jof the small certificates issaed and the government daring the past week has taken in as much money as it has paid oat in spite of the half-yearly interest payments. Consultations at Washington make a reduction of the revenne at this ses- 1 improbable and the accumulation of surplus threatens disturbance after July 1. Over eight thonsand miles of railway were built last year, only one thonsand five hun dred in eastern and southern States and over four thousand miles in Kansas, Nebras ka, Dakota, Minnesota and Texas. Hence the rise in iron. Prices advanced $1 on Wednesday at Pittsburg. The associations official report makes the output 2,950,000 tons for the last half of 1886. This power ful impulse toward prosperity, merchants fear, would be taken away if the passage of the inter-State 'commerce bill should dis courage railroad building. In business cir cles the apprehension of a set-back as a consequence of high through rates for western products and an arrest of rail road bnilding strongly influences calculations for the future. The failure of a large cattle raising company illustrated a recent sugges tion as to the evils of over production and control of transportation lines. : In the Southwest failures have been unusually nu merous; in other sections not more than might have been expected for the' first week of the year. Collections are generally satis factory and the increasing number of buyers gives greater aotivity here in the dry goods trade. Coal advances because of an impor tant strike of handler . Boston shipments of boots and shoes for 1886 were 2,875,316 cases against 2,678,364 in 1885. Wool sales at Philadelphia were 19,000,000 pounds less than in 1885, but New York imports of foreign wool were 18,900,000 pounds larger. Higher prices here for wheat and cotton also imply the belief that production will be cur tailed next year as a result of unsatisfactory returns to farmers. The railroad earnings in December on twenty-one roads exceed those of 1885 about thirteen per cent, and bank exchanges for the year show larger transac tions than ever, excepting in parts of the South. But the railway foreclosures as re ported by the Chicago Age exceeded in 1886 those of any previous year. The late decision of an Ohio court invalidating the first mort gage on the Nickel Plate road is used to excite distrust of foreign investors, ap parently with some effect. Foreign ex change has advanced and shipmen's of gold hither are suspended. Bat Colorado reports the output of precious metals $4,294,688 greater in 1886 than in 1885. The business failures occurring through out the country during the last seven days number tor the United States 271, and for Canada 28, or a total of 299, as compared with a total of 273 last week and 263 the week previous to the last. The increase no ticed in the number of casualties arises in the South where the failures are exception ally numerous though not important. The assignments in New York are few and of little consequence. Over Poor Handred Lives -Lost. London, Jan. 7. The official report of the recent fire in the People's Park at Madras shows that 405 deaths" resulted therefrom. THE CASE OF MRS. EMMONS. Some Interesting; Testimony to Show Her Mental Condition. Washington, Jan. 7. The old circuit court room in the City Hall was besieged with a well dressed crowd early to-day to listen to the proceedings in Mrs. Emmons' sanitv case. Mrs. DeCormia was again on the stand. She testified about strange actions on the part of Mrs. Emmons aboard ship while going to Europe. She told of a cigar ette smoke between Mrs. Emmons and nine strange gentlemen, the same cigarette being used by all. At this the spectators laughed and Mrs. Emmons said in a low tone to her counsel: "That's a lie." From - this time forward most of her : testimony was racy. Mrs. Uetjornjis Btated that sue had bad no difficulty with Mrs. Emmons on board the steamer. She was then asked if she did not put Mrs. Emmons out of her stateroom on one occasion, and admitted it. She was asked to tell about it and after being tola she must said she asked Mrs. Emmons the night prior to their arrival when . Mrs. Emmons was in her stateroom if .she really in tended to accompany her (Mrs. DeCormis) and on Mrs. Emmons reDlving in the affirmative mis. ueuormis told her that in future It would be wiser not to confide in her maids or companions. "She asked me why," continued the witness, "and I told her that the maid she had left behind had said she did not care to go to Europe be cause she preferred to remain behind and be Professor Emmons' mistress. She asked if I did not intend leading a life of shame, in London. I retorted that I did not and never had and asked, her if she could say as much. She sprang at me and boxed my ears. I ordered her out of the room and she said it ts her stateroom as she paid for it. I attempted to put her out and she planted her back to the door. Mrs. Emmons is a strong woman and we were about evenly matched. I had a hard time, bnt finally got her about the waist and lifting her from the floor laid her out in tbe hall and closed the door. During Mrs. De Cormis' testimony Mrs. Emmons fre quently interrupted, expressing her opinion of each statement. Once she ejaculated: Vile insinuations." whion caused ner law yers to say: ''Do be quiet." Dr. Kemps ter, or JNew orx, tnen testineu concerning Mrs. Emmons mental condition; Dr. Kempster testified that he first saw Mrs. Emmons in company with Dr. H. Marion Sims. At that time she was incoherent. He visited her again the next day and saw her in the library. In ths corner was s Christmas tree. Hanging thereon were a number of queer things, one being a broken thermom eter. Mrs. Emmons stated that it represent ed disjointed affections. At this testimony everyone langhed, Mrs. Emmons joining in and saying, "Disjointed fiddlesticks." Dr. Kempster told of other illusions and weak nesses of the lady. The inquiry goes on to morrow. ; ' Tha president Soeiahlr inclined. Washington. Jan. 7. There was a marked improvement in the President's appearance when he entered the East room to-day and found seventy-five socially inclined callers waiting to pay their respects. Nearly all who passed between the attendants stopped and chatted for a few seconds and this break in the monotony seemed to be relished by the President, who detained many of the callers and inquired after personal friends. 49th Congress Second Session Washington, Jan. 7.

The Star this even ing says the definite result of the meeting of the Randall committee last night was a de cision to call np the revenue proposi'ion in the House. Their plan of procedure and the exact day upon which Mr. Randall will make tbe motion to go into committee tney desire to keep secret. Mr. Randall was closeted with tbe speaker for some time this morn ing. The speaker conceded that lie has a right to recognition and agreed to recognize him at any time he desired to make the mo tion. The motion will be made probably on Monday or Tuesday next or it is possible that it may be to-morrow. Mr. Randall is de sirous not to inform his opponents as to this point. The motion to go into committee will likely be carried by a good majority. What is to happen after that no one can pre dict. A FASHIONABLE DIVORCE SUIT. a Handsome Vonne Society Lady of Newport Seeking a Separation From Her Haibaad. Newport, R. I., Jan. 7. Quite a sensa tional and fashionable divorce suit was call ed at a special session of the Supreme court convened here to-day. The parties are EUa C. Hurlbut and Henry A. Hurlbut, jr., of N. Y. Mrs. Hurlbut has been occupying a cottage here for the past three years. Tbe petitioner was formerly a Miss Childs, of New York. Her sister and father have been with her since she came to Rhode. Island. The defendant is a son of Henry A. Hurlbut, a director of the Garfield National bank of New York. The charge against the hnsband is habitual drnnkenness and non support. A year or two ago Mrs. Hurlbut filed a peti tion in Providence making the same allega tion, and a few days before the case she wrote her husband and said that if he wonld give up his intemperate habits and support her properly she would retnrn and live with with him. No reply to this note was sent, but it was used against Mrs. Hurlbut. When the trial came on the ruling was that as she had made snch an offer it proved that her residence in Rhode Island was not fully established, so she was non-suited. It appears that on the marriage of the parties the elder Hurlbut gave his daughter-in-law a bouse in New York and her husband's life was insured for her benefit. An effort has been made to indnce her to surrender these on condition that the suit was not opposed, bnt she determined to hold on ' to them. Among the witnesses whose depositions were read was one from Mrs. James, whose mar riage to General Butler in London four months ago will be remembered. The best witness for Mrs. Hurlbut was her sister, who did not mince matters. Her story of the wrongs inflicted upon her sister by her drunk en husband was graphically told and her manner convinced everybody that she was telling the truth. The defendant was present and seemed to take a deep interest in the case in which he figures so prominently. Qnite a number of fashionable ladies, friends of Mrs. Hnrlbnt, were present. The hearing Was renewed this afternoon. Two able lawyers appear on both sides and it is evident that the husband means to fight every inch of ground. He will endeavor to prove that Mrs. Hurlbut came here expressly to take advantage of tbe loose divorce laws of the State,and this will be his principal complaint coupled with that of desertion and no charges of infidelity will be made on his side. Mrs. Hurlbut is a handsome young woman and is a great favor ite in society. During the afternoon hearing Mrs. Hurlbut took the stand and testified to drnnkenness and abusive language on the part of her hus band causing her illness; also that he desert ed her in 1882 and has not supported her since. On cross examination she admitted that she did not attempt to separate from her hnsband until after his failure in busi ness. Mr. Hurlbut testified in bis own be half. He denied habitual intoxication. At this point the case was adjourned. Misers Found Dead From Starvation. Philadelphia, Jan. 7. Two misers, Jo seph Perry, aged seventy-three, and Robert Price, aged Bixty-five, were found Btarved to death in their miserable abode in a basement at 1,025 Locust street, where they had lived over thirty years. They had never held any communication with their neighbors and the fact of their death was learned only after it had been noticed that they had not been seen to leave or enter the place for a week. This led to the police being notified and upon the apartments being broken into the bodies were found. Nothing is known of their affairs, though it was generally reported that they had money in various banks. Jewelry and stock worth a few hundred dol lars were found among Perry's effect. He is known, however, to have owned real estate worth from $100,000 to $200,000. Price was a carpenter by trade and had but little money. Perry was in business forty years ago. It appears that death was due as much to cold as to starvation. The Fund for Mrs. Logan. Washington, Jan. 7. Mrs. Logan's fund amounts to about $30,000, which, added to the Chicago contributions, makes a total of $50,000. THE FIRST LADY OF THE LAND Sets a Qratefnl style or Appearing Without a Hat at the Opera. ( Washington, Jan. 7. Mrs. Cleveland oc cupied a lower prooenium box at the Nation al Theatre this evening. The opera of " Adina, or the Elixir of Love," was well sung by the Boston Ideal Opera company and seemed to be greatly enjoyed by Mrs. Cleveland. She was accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Colonel Lamont, Mrs. Johnson and Miss Hastings. The ladies were in full opera toilets and the appearance of the lady of the White House without a hat has given a preo- . edent which will be largely observed in the future. Secretary and Mrs. Manning and the Secretary's brother were also present and occupied a box on the opposite Bide of the house from Mrs. Cleveland. Mr. Tharmin Taken Suddenly III. Columbus, O., Jan. 7. While the festivi ties of the Jackson club banquet were in progress to-night a sensation was created when ex-Senator Allan G.

Moxte in a New Role. There was probably never a time when the churches antagonized the rum trade as much as now. Prohibition is the cry everywhere, and has had the benefit of criminal law for thirty years, yet it has only proved so far that it cannot draw out a leviathan with a hook, or divide the wheat from the tares. The liquor interests flourish in spite of the law, indignation meetings, acrimonious dis cussions, aud prisons. Two years ago it was learned the Moxie Nerve Food Plant enred the liquor appetite and satisfied the drinkers better, leaving only good, vigorous health; and now word comes from Chicago, and many other places, that the barkeepers are obliged to sell it on-account of the demand, and it is four ataxies to one whiskey. It ' is generally believed, now, that it is the most successful enemy of rum, in that it is profita ble, and t le tares are likely to be choked by the superior growth of a rival. B.ast of an Excellent Series. At Dwight Place church to-morrow eve ning Rev. Dr. Twitchell preaches tha last cf his series of sermons on "Our Homes," hav ing for bis subject "The model home."

This is an age of adulterations and nearly every article of food we use has to some ex tent been cheapened aud the value lessened by the introduction of foreign substances. Even salt has suffered at the hands of the unprincipled money maker, and the salt used npon yonr table contains chloride of magneninra, clay and other insoluble matter which is entirely injurious to the health.

Rheumatism It is an established fact that Hood's 8ar saparilla has proven an invaluable remedy in many severe cases of rheumatism, effect ing remarkable cures by its powerful action in correcting the acidity of the blood, which is the cause of the disease, and purifying and enriching the vital fluid. It is certainly fair to assume that what Hood's Sarsaparilla has done for others lt will do for you. Therefore, If you suffer the pains and aches of rheumatism, give this potent remedy a fair trial. A Positive Core. "I was troubled very much with rheuma tism in my hips, ankles, and wrists. I could hardly walk, and was confined to my bed a good deal of the time. Being rec ommended to try Hood's Sarsaparilla, I took four bottles and am perfectly well. I cheerfully recommend Hood's Sarsaparilla as one of the best blood purifiers in the world." W. F. Wood, Bloonungtor. III. For Twenty Years I have been afflicted with rheumatism. Before 1883 1 found no relief, but grew worse. I then began taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, and it did me more good than all the other medicine I ever had." H. T. Balcom, Shirley, Mass. " I suffered from what the doctors called muscular rheumatism. I took Hood's Sar saparilla and am entirely cured." J. V.
