THE GOSSIP OF GOTHAM. Rebellion Breaks Out in the Salva tion Army. Will Investigation atop It P—Why a Hair Restorer Caused Hill to Sup port Cleveland. (Copyright.) New York, Sept. I.—Rarely does it occur to the average New Yorker that the metropolis affords a field for the talents of empire builders unequaled by any city in the world. Os this fact the pres ent condition of the Salvation Army affords striking evidence. Unknown to most Americans, Wallington Booth, com mander of these eccentric legions, has become so powerful as to have success fully defied the authorities, but at present he has on his hands a rebellion among his troops that seems likely to require all his military skill, if he is to suppress it at all. As very few are aware, the revenue of the Salvation Army has now grown to ' . enormous pro- ‘T commander booth, come auxiliaries, and the dollars flow in with encouraging regularity. The great building of the army, of which the corner stone was re cently laid, is to be an architectural tri umph. The banners and uniforms of the troops have begun to assume genuine military luxuriance, and! the various sta tions are no longer cheerless and bare, but snug and comfortable. In the case of the officers of rank, the improved condi tions are quite noticeable, for they-live well and are by no means pinched where money is concerned. But as prosperity came, so did dissen sion. The rank and file began to com plain that they were being ground down under the weight of despotism. Now, it is true that the government of the army is military in every sense of the word, and, a$ staff captain marshall recently put it, “when you’re in the Salvation Army you do as you’re told.”. But. ac cording to the complaints preferred by various barracks, the rank and file have no show at all. • Favorites, like Capt. Patty Watkins, are promoted over the heads of the veterans. Another griev ance is the Importation of recruits from England to fill soft berths. It may not be known that the Salvation Army is a very foreign organization. Ballington Booth is an Englishman, and very naturally he prefers his countrymen when promotions are in order. But so great was the griev ance when several new men recently came over from England to fill commands that appeals to the alien contract labor law were threatened. However the matter was smoothed overby Commander Booth, and promises are alleged to have been made that remuneration would be raised to a decent living scale. The women of the army are particularly incensed be cause they are forced to enter saloons to sell copies of the War Cry, the literary medium through which salvation news is disseminated in this country from the official standpoint. It is to this practice that recent intemperance among the army women is attributed. Not a few have been seen intoxicated on the streets of Salvationist ha? nothing in particular to do, she is obliged to sell War Crys if she wants any money. ’ All these grievances culminated in a series of visits by Salvationists to the army headquarters on Reade street, and Commander Booth is alleged to have promised some amelioration. He also agreed, it is stated, that the pripe of army insignia and uniforms, which are sold from New York, should be reduced, and, further, that no more Englisn were to be imported, but that Americans should have some chance for promotion. For a time matters appeared to be smoothed out, but the commander is said to have feared the results of his compli ance on the Salvation regiments through out the country, and to have “slumped,” to use the term applied to his action by his disgusted troops. The great revenue of the army is pretty well drawn upon as it is, and a general increase of pay would prove embarrassing'. The New York barracks determined upon revenge. Owing to the pecuniary influences which have been brought to bear upon the Army the cruder forms of its war upon the devil have boen aband oned New Yorkers no longer see the Salvationist transparency: “Why pay sixteen cents a pound for mutton when you can get the Lamb of God for nothing*” while the hymn, “Hooray for the Lord” has even given way to “Lead, Kindly Light.” But the soldiers made a sudden return to primitive forms of combat. In three different barracks things became so noisy that whole neighborhoods were kept awake night after night. Tambourines were thummed, drums were pounded, shouts rent the midnight air, and in a general way pandemonium reigned. The very result longed for by the sly Salvationists ensued. One fortress of the Lord was raided, and a whole regiment was paraded to the po lice court. Naturally the commander was embarrassed, and it cost him more to rescue his troops from the qlutcbes of the law than it would have done to increase their pay all around. And all over the city the same com plaints arose. Salvationists are as noisy as'. Salvationists can be. The holy war is making sleep a lost art in many parts of New York. Neighborhoods are circulat ing petitions and general distraction reigns. But the commander will not give in. He is asserting his authority in Napoleonic fashion, and the battle grows active with out the least suspicion having yet been aroused in the minds of the chief suffer ers as to the real source of the difficulty. DR. BVRTSELL'S COMING. Dr, Richard L. Burtsell should be in New York by this time. He was expected last month, and his arrival is awaited with infinite eagerness, in view of the liquor problem now attracting national attention to the Catholic church. The doctor was known to be in Paris during the first week in August, and it has been stated that he went to Rome as advo cate of various deposed priests throughout the country. and upon his return will have docu ments likely to make him as great an author ity In his way as Satolli himself. Be this as it may, it is certain that he will return in triumph, if he returns at all, and since he js one of the greatest living authorities on canon law. it seems likely that his plea al the Roman court would not have been made unless he felt •ure of success. Had it not been for Dr. portions in this country. Not only are numer ous millionaires, including a well knpwn soap man ufacturer and a prominent finan cier contributing liberally to it. but very many prominent people including mem bers of the Van derbilt and Sloan families, havebe- o DR. BVRTSELL. Burtsell’s efforts Dr. McGlynn would not now be restored to his priestly func tions. It is not exaggerating matters to say that Dr. Burtsell is the one man upon whom theattention of the American Cath olic clergy is fixed, and that he will shortly be back in the United States is a piece of news from the ecclesiastical point of view of the first magnitude. MORE POLICE HUMORS. For some days rumors have been circu lated in New York that the resumption of the police investigations by the legislative committee, which so recently drew na- inspector william?. is well to leave matters as they are. since the committee’s > authority is, after all. limited, and the people are as thoroughly convinced of the existence of colossal, police corruption as they can be. Inspector Williams, who is as famous a policeman in his way as Byrnes himself, is credited with knowing all the ins and outs of this business, ana to be able to tell some things about the coming doings when these investigations are resumed that would make “mighty interestin’ readin’.” However, he keeps his own counsel and general uncertainty pre vails. But the Parkhurst brigade have heard the rumors, and according to a letter from the doctor himself, there must be no cessation of inquisitorial activity until all the corruption in high places is revealed. Dr. Parkhurst and Inspector Williams be long to the same political party, but their fiersonal relations are far from cordial, nspector Williams is accused of having found out some of the secrets of the Park hurst crusaders and to have passed around the “tip.” The situation just now is very much like a complicated game of-chess and both sides must play carefully to win. The police are by no means without resources in this contest, as the ‘reform ers may learn to their cost. One of the charges now going the rounds is that the police have sought damaging information about the past of some of the investigators and mean to hold it over their heads as a sort of hostage to discre tion. DE LAUDE CALVORUM. Senator Hill’s baldness has grown so pronounced in these latter days that he uses, unknown to most of his ad mirers, a hair re storer, with re sults that are by no means notice able as yet. The secret appears to have been be trayed by the ex cessive zeal of an admirer, who sent a dozen bottles of a capillary en couraging com pound to the cap ital addressed to the senator. senator hill. Tho senator himself is not' pleased at this desertion of him by his hair, but is reported to be sensitive to all allusions with reference to it. Nevertheless he recently revived various forgotten classi calities and quoted from the 700 allitera tive Latin lines, all beginning with “c,” which are written in Draise of the bald. The sally made a hit and its repetition resulted in a general bestowal of hair re storers on the senator, who thereupon de clared that the greatest men in history, from Caesar to Bismarck, have been more or less destitute of hair. Some one. his tory is silent in the matter of his name, asked the senator if his recent support of Mr. Cleveland was based upon any such consideration. The laugh that ensued was conceded to be at the senator’s ex pense. And Mr. Hill took it all in that suave, calm way of his which, more than anything else, makes for his personal popularity. Senator Hill, by the way, is becoming one of the best authorities in history in congress. He is an omnivorous reader, and the felicity of his comparisons and perorations is due in no small degree to the immense range of his general informa tion. The present congress is noted for the presence of numbers of unusually well educated men in it, and among them Senator Hill is by no means last. THE JAPANESE MINISTER. The coming presentation of the new Japanese minister to the President will be an event of more im portance than is the case with most diplomatic happenings. The odd court dress of the Japanese will be an JI JAPANESE MINISTER IN COURT COSTUME. interested in Japanese railroad projects, and investigators here look forward with interest to the move ments of the Oriental. It appears that the Tokio government has had differences with various chartered concerns which have been treated rather cavalierly in the readjustment of interests that ensued upon government control of the railways. The Japanese themselves, however, are very friendly to Americans, far more so than the Chinese are. This autumn will witness qui tea social plunge on the part of the Mikado's representative in the swim of the Four Hundred. All thecivili ties are said to be inspired by a desire/o haxe a favorable report made to the Japanese state department on the subject of those railroads, but Orientals are not more easily caught with chaff than are the rest of our fellow creatures. In the matter of the railroads they have cer tainly outgeneraled some New York financiers. STATUBS OF WASHINGTON. Os all the statues of Washington, that which stands in front of the sub-treasury building in Wall street is most advantage ously situated as an ob;ect of con templation and is awarded the palm for beauty and sculptural excel lence. It has just been paid the complimen t of servin g as a model for the bronze represen tation of the father of his country which is i 1 to adorn the pe- i destal in front of the glorious new capitol of the state of Wash- inetion. The statue is certainly the most conspicuous object on alt Wall street, but THE WEEKLY NEWS (TWO-TIMES-A-WEEK): THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1894. tional attention to its labors, will not be as impor tant a matter as many think. This is due to an ap prehension o n the part of sa gacious observ ers that what is to come cannot be more effective than what has already trans pired. Therefore, they contend, it \ xSy interesting sea-. ture, and the delegation will wear it in Oriental style, of course, but the diplomat will doff it when off duty, so to speak. The min ister has a special commis sion to investi gate the rail road question in tho United States and he will come to New York on that errand. There are many New Yorkers A* it is a noteworthy fact that in recent years the financial thoroughfare has been losing much of its monetarv prestige. This is owing to the dread of the Street by bankers who do a large business throughout the country. They fear the impression produced by an investment . concern in any way associated with Wall ; street. The name itself has been given an ominous association by the stream of invective hurled against it. When Grover Cleveland retired from the Presidency he would under no consideration retain his > law office on Wall street, and this dis cretion is imitated by the many states men who have occasion to open offices near the financial center of the metropo lis. As a consequence, the father of his , country, whose gaze is directed away ( from Wall street, sees rows of stately edifices, whose occupants have deserted his own thoroughfare for one that is less . suggestive of the dog that was given a . had name.

I * ) The Predicament the Returned Sum- I mer Girl Finds Herself in. » * She Has Nothing to Wear A Few Suggestions Which May Help Her Out—The Fall Novelties in Dress Goods—How to Make Them Up. New York, Sept. I.—The demi-season is upon us with all its disadvantages. The girls are returning everyday in a healthy brown condition. They went away to re cuperate; but now find themselves too plump and round for the city gayeties. How to get rid of tan, freckles and the like is the talk of the hour. Everything V J* J WWw // /1 I Ja. i ./ /ff 111 I' iXI 1 » I , A Dashing Fall Style. ZrTfflfi is being tried, with more or less success. If the cold weather continues most of them will immediately take up a course of training to harden their muscles and dispose of the somewhat bourgeois ful ness of cheek. But a more difficult problem than the matter of one’s physical condition pre sents itself. Most women have absolutely nothing to wear. The light, pretty sum mer dresses that were all right for the summer resort, are sadly out of place in the city streets. And the one or two gowns that served for rainy and chilly days, and for traveling, and are no longer fresh and spotless. The serge hasn’t its old smart hang, out droops here and sags there in a dispirited manner. And the summer girl looks rather dejectedly upon the pile of useless dresses that have been taken from tho trunk, and wonders whether she will have to sit at home until a new dress can be made. There are two or three solutions to the problem. A simple and satisfactory one is to purchase a plain skirt of dark blue, gray or black cloth, covert, cheviot, or one of the waterproof cloths—since you will want it for the autumn rains. You can get one of these for a small sum, just at this time of the year. Then select the quietest and best-looking of your sum mer-waists. have them laundered or pressed, as the case demands, and wear them with your fresh, jaunty skirt. Another, and a perhaps more satisfac tory plan, is to buy an entire cloth suit. Just now they cost about half what they did in the early summer. You would, per haps. be surprised to see the neat black suit which vou can purchase for sl2 skirt and fashionable coat, with double breasted effect in front, cut-away, and wit h the long, full skirt effect in the back. Such a suit will last well into the fall; and then can be bought for even less than the sum named. For the maiden with a full purse 1 would say, get you a new tailor-made suit at once. The fall materials are coming out —a little slowly, it is true, owing to July’s excessive heat, which dulled the faculties of the creator of our novelties to some degree. , But now they are com ing to our shores, and in another week or two we shall have them all with us. Those that have come clearly indicate that some of our fancies of last year have gone by, while others will be revived in new guise. For instance, the combina tions of color are seen in many of the new materials, but combinations much softer and quieter than of yore. We also learn from the great importers that crepons will be among the favorite materials. And this is not to be won dered at, when we consider that crepon appears in so many forms and designs. Those of this season, thus far, are varied and beautiful. The greater number of them show a ground work of one color, over which are thrown stripes or designs in raised mohair or soft chenille effects. One of these latter is'particularly beau tiful. The ground is an uneven stripe of black crepon and pink silk, then black and blue silk. Over this is a dotted effect in cut chenille or plush, in the shades of golden brown, shading from a delicate yellow into rich seal tints. The whole is most brilliant, and soft withal. > Another crepon has a dull heliotrope ground, .with a black chain stitch in mohair, forming a stripe. Another produces a block effect by stripes of dull sage and dull plum color, with another stripe, crossing these, of the curling mohair effect in black. A most dainty silken puckered novelty 9 • w * is shown in clear, golden brown, with the fine puckers formed by small open stripes, more like eyelets than anything else, that run closely between. A rich, dark blue has curving, dashing lines thrown over in raised black. A brown, all of one rich, dark tint, is made of stripes in long undulations, each being about two inches wide. The alternate stripes have a lustrous, satin effect, as contrasted with the plain crepon be tween. A black and olive blending form the ground work of another, and its raised design consists of regular, close polka dots of black. A queer material, known, however, as jerepon—for lack of a better name. I sus pect—is made of fine lines of dark green and dull gold—the latter being actual gold threads—closely interwoven. The whole is woven so that it falls in snaky curves, producing a fantastic appearance as it lies in folds. A reminder of the spring styles is a dark brown, whose surface is covered with twisted threads in true harlequin tints. There are also a few novelties in camel’s hair, notably a rich blending of peculiar green and grayish tints, which would make up into a most stylish costume. But these fanciful, expensive materials —they cost from $3 to $5 a yard—will not be worn to any extent. A few of the fashionables will make them up for this peculiar demi-season. but by far the greater number will wait until the season advances. What is now being sold to great extent, in the shops, is the satisfactory, enduring English cheviot. There are some beauti ful varieties in iron, silver and blue grays, and a suggestion of the pinkish tints is in some. This material is fifty-eight inches wide, has been thoroughly shrunk, and costs $2.75 a yard. It takes five yards and a half for a full suit—admitting of a & L 1 fll 0 I p I k ff i V w 1 al R I 1 wMHE H * 1 M 0 U R ci ■» A Parison Fancy for the Fall. long coat and full sleeves. It is of very close weave, thick and warm, and will last through more than one season. Satin-fa’ced woolens are also shown—a novelty which consists of twilled wools so lustrous as to fully deserve the name they bear. They possess an advantage over the cheviots, for this particular time of the year, in being of somewhat lighter weight. Some of these are double-faced, with the one side of a lighter tint than the other, and showing the twill more clearly. In such cases one side is utilized tor trimming the costume. There is but little difference in the September suit. The coats are a little shorter, the sleeves very wide, and the skirts clear the ground and are well stiffened at the back. A jaunty Paris design shows a jacket which stops short at the waist line. Its revers are "broad and pointed, and curve inward and down the front, narrowing to the waist. A large button fastens them to the bodice, and another button trims each side of the jacket, below. Dainty pieces of cream lace relieve the plain, broad vest of the material, which shows between the revers. A ribbon belt, just in front, falls in a short bow. The other is far simpler, and more to the American girl’s liking. Its skirt has four divisions in front, joined by narrow bands of black passementerie or braid, which also edges the bottom. Its plain bodice opens all the way down, although narrower below the bust, to admit ora white front. Long stole revers, starting from the shoulders, lie fiat until they are caught over the bust, beneath a large button each side. Two other big buttons finish the points of the bodice, which run slightly below the belt line, in front. MARRIED A SPOOK LOVER. It Must Be So, for May Bangs Herself Tells the Story. From the New York Sun. Onset, Mass., Aug. 25.—May Bangs, one of the Bangs sisters, materializing mediums and independent slate writers of Chicago, .was in the cabinet room of the Happy Home Cottage at Onset Bay at 4:30 last Tuesday afternoon, when she de clared positively and without any provisos that a person of flesh and blood in this life could be married to a materialized spirit. She declared that a woman from the west, a woman of wealth, had been married in the very room in which she sat. “I materialized the form,” she said, “and the lover came out of the cabinet at tired in the uniform of an army officer. The premises had been previously ex amined to prove that there was no mortal about. The materialized spirit asked that the curtains be drawn for a while to shut off the front parlor. The bride wanted him to put on her slipper, and he did. “Only a faint light shone through from the room where the minister and others we»e waiting. He kissed her numerous times. The bride was in a new wedding dress. Then the materialized spirit lover requested that the marriage ceremony be Derformed, and the request was granted. He placed a ring on her finger. They were together a long time that evening.” The reporter, who investigated the spiritual marriage, had heard from other sources of such a matrimonial event, and from two different persons he had heard that the woman in the case was from the west; that she was wealthy, well edu cated and a woman of refinement. She is said to be a firm believer in spiritualism and has long known the Bangs sisters, Lizzie and May. She is about 35, short in stature, plump in form, and dresses ele gantly. Another account of the wedding from the lips of one who claims to have possession of facts is this: “On the night of Aug. 8, which was Wednesday, everything was ready for this strange ceremony, and the wedding party, consisting of about half a dozen persons, was within the walls of ‘Happy Home’ Cottage, the home or the Bangs sisters, which is but a few rods distant from the grove where all the big spirit ualistic meetings are held. Miss ——, who was to be married to the one who had passed away, had purchased flowers, and with her own hands had decorated the rooms. Curtains covered the windows just as at a seance. A single dim light was burning in the parlor, just a candle in a box. the tiny flame being subdued by blueglass. Lizzie Bangs and the minister were to be seen in this front room next to the street, surrounded by the floral display of ferns and lilies. A cheese cloth had been hung across the double doorway which led into the cabinet room behind. May Bangs came tripping down the stairs and entered the dark little apart ment where the spirits first made their appearance. She was followed by the bride, who took a seat in the cabinet room and awaited the appearance of the spirit who was to become her husband. May Bangs materialized the form of a late captain in the army, who, when in life, hailed from Maryland. An ordained minister then went through the marriage service, and at the close de clared the couple to be husband and wife. When the minister, who-is a woman, at present in Vermont, finished, she was heard to say that she hoped it was really a materialized spirit that was married, for if it was a man in earth life he was married sure enough. It is rumored that when the Bangs sis ters start for Chicago on Monday two young men will go with them, One of the&e young men, who struck Onset with I s. only $2 in his pocket, has been spending money lavishly of late. “I’ve struck a snap,” he said to a re garter. "I am going to Chicago with May Bangs, but I’m going to get S6O in my fist before I start, or I don’t go. I’ve had a promise of 815 a week and my board bills. Have you heard of the spirit marriage? It took place all right. The spirit groom was George—Capt. George—Somebody. They wanted me to put on a uniform and . represent the groom, but I was out with May once, and Miss bobbed up sud- ! denly, and May had to introduce me to i her. so the girl knew who I was.” The strange mariage has been the talk • of Onset for some time, but as most of ; those there are deep-dyed Spiritualists. ; they think it nothing unusual. i This peep show recalls with a differ ence the famous spirit marriage in the familj r of the late George D. Carroll, once of Dempsey & Carroll, stationers, who wasted much of his substance on a me ! dium named Fanny Stryker. Carroll had lost a young son. and though the medium never materalized the youth for him, she did act as priestess in a “spirit marriage” between the bov and “Bright Eyes,” a ghost with no family name Elaborate engraved invitations for the ceremony were sent out. and the priestess officiated in white uncut velvet The elder Carroll died recently in compara tive poverty, and the medium buried him.
