Berlin. Sept. 17.—Before leaving Stutt

Urn had a long conference with Chan
cellor von Caprivl. The subl et 1* said
to have been the prelected assimilation
of Alsace-Uccoine with the rest of the
emp:
Th.- Frankfort Gazette says that the
emperor’s purpoa? is no longer limited
to the mere abolition of exceptional
laws. His desire now is to have A’.sace-
I/Irain. Incorporated in the grand
duchy of Baden «tnH people have at-
ni-ot the same diet, customs and even
traditions with the Alsatians.
Loraina will be treated somewhat dif
ferently. It is inhabited by people of
French tendencies and language and has
little in common with any Dorman state.
It therefore will be annexed to Prussia,
allhough its affairs will be administered
by a special department, situated prob
ably In H»r!!n. TW" plan originated
with Caprivi. It is agreeable to the em
peror, who wishes to mark his solouru
in -the province by some act signifying
that Germany has taken definite pos
session of the territory, despite all hopes
of th: French to the contrary.
A crowd of Gcrmamy’s great m*n
gathered at the station at Stuttgart to
say good bye to the emperor. Besiaes
the king of Wurtemburg.ChinceUor von
Caprtvi and Gen. Harzl r, there were
prest?nt some fifty of the highest oitters
in the .thirteenth,fourte, .nth and fifteenth
army corps, which have made up the
armies maneuvering around Meta and
in Badiin and Wurtemburg.
FINE PONTOON WORK.
In talking with these officers the em
peror spoke critically of several inci
dents of the maneuvers. He referred
especially to the pontoon operations on
the Rhiue. The bridging of the river
seemed to have struck the Imperial im
agination with peculiar force and he
dwelt at length on the importance of
thin class of engineering. Ho directed
shat the pisnage of tie rive, he made
again In the same manner and on the
same goal* and that an exact statement
of the time required for lb? work be
sent him. The opinion of the military
experts present when the bridge was
.thrown across the river agree that the
fourteenth corps performed th* task
■with admirable quickness and skill. In
the fleet used there were forty wooden
and fifty-two galvanised Iron pontoons.
At a point where the stream runs six
miles an hour and is 254 yards wide,
the boats were placed in exactly two
hours. Ktom begtrmig to end tlwre was
oot a hitch in the, work. In the next
three hours th* whole of the fourteenth
corps marched across.
The Hungarian maneuvers near Guns,
wldch th- emperor has gone to attend,
will hardly present anything of equal
interewt, although some pontoon prac
tice on a small scale will be lrt«d thwe
also. An unusually largis suite accom
panies the emperor on his tourney to
Guns. Besides Gens, von Haiike, von
SonUeffem and von Pl.s»en, there are
with him De. L*utpokl. surgeon general;
CoL von Vtlbume. formerly military at
tache in 81. Petersburg; Dr. Lucanus,
privy councillor, with three secretaries;
Baron UMW Wiechoter of the foreign
office, with’two secretaries: Count Kal-
ooky.Aua: rSi-Hungitvia minister of for-
rlgn affairs, will accompany him to
Guns, where the wfhoU? Hungarian min
istry. under premier Alexander Wekerb*.
win Join him and his chiefs.
Everybody is asking "Whit dees this
great concourse of the highest officials
mean? Is it intended merely to urM
to th* impressiveness of the greatest
manoeuvres ever held, or is It Hit pre
lude to some startling politic, 1 1 ddluic
ment?”v
The King of Hsxony snd P: ir.ee Leo

Guns, Sept. 17.—For the last twenty-
four hour* the papulation of this little
town hns been doubled by the arrival
of thousands to sen the maneuvers of
the Austro-Hungarian army. Every

the emperor's suite had welcomed King
Albert, he was conducted to hi* quar

ried away to chango their uniforms, as
the German emperor win expected to

before 4 they returned In russlan uni
forms to the platform.
Meantime, all the military hands in
the town had been massed before the
station. The crowd hid grown to 5.000
or more and the number of troops had
been doubled. On Uie platform behind
the Imperial eulte were hundreds of
Austrian and Hungarian magnates in
gorgeous uniform* and on every side

There are many people In Macon who
remember George IV. Curtis. v!.0 fo -
it long time was chief clerk to Master
of Trains E. E. Anderson, formerly of
the Central, and who left Macon about
.four years ago for Chicago with Mr.
Anderson, *”ho went to a r°?‘*
tiou with the Illinois Central.
From a letter received in the city
Saturday by a friend of Curtis' it wits
learned that he had committed aui.-ide
in Chicago Wednesday night hy turn
ing on the gaa in his room at n hold.
Th® Chicago Herald of Friday givts
the following interesting aooount of
Curtis' death and the strange request
he made aa to the disposition of his
body:

*<%-«!(• fo"** «t 1/iiiUvtllk *» vfmtiy

Chief clerk in the office of J. F. Wal
lace, chief engineer of the- BtucU

cldc Wednesday in the Lc Grande ho
tel, Wells and Klnzie streets. He left
order* to have hla body cremated and
willed his ashes to three ballet girls,
now playing with the Al! Baba com
pany. Curtis brought about. Us death
by turning on the gas tn hla room alter
first carefully stuffing paper and cloth
ing Into every aperture that might let
in air. The preparations allowed that
he was most determined and system
atic about hla intention to ewsit sui
cide. A letter written by him to a
friend. J. T. Darling, also dcirondiaies
this fact, and he had three times pre
viously attempted to produce death by
taking laudanum.
This information la learned from the
letter written.to DarlingSatuetnvc’-t-n-
lug at the Le Grande hotel, ns is iv'so
the fact that he wanted his body 're-
mated and the ashes distributed. Th!

CURTIS’ BEQUEST.
Tho letter is as follows:

In the uniform of tbe Hungarian Hua-
sars the crowd on the platform shouted:
"Welcome." The thousands behind
cheered, and the hands struck In unison
the first notes of the German national
anthem. Emperor William waa apparent
ly tn unusual spirits. He smiled contin
ually as he received the greetings of the
Austrian princes and shook hands most
cordially with Count Katknoky and sev
eral Hungarian ministers of state. ■
| Amid the peeling of bell*, the cheering^
of people and th* crashing of martial
music the two emperors proceeds! with
their suites to their quarters. At 430
there was a grand dinner, attended hy
street. This circumstance le.l to i'ur-
lis' rcrignatton. A copy of hia rrsgRS-
tion found amoni: hi* effects referred
to this unpleasantness betwu -n him nml
Gilbert as the caua* of hts leaving the
company’s employ.
In the same office that Curtis worked
was a pretty sten.-grapher, Georgia
Stahl, from Elkhart. Ind. She had an
accomplished nnd good-looking sister,
Mae. Through Georgia Curtis and Mne
became acquainted, and their friend
ship developed into something deeper.
It was thought that they were engaged,
as Curtis made frequent trips to her
Indiana home.
Architect Gilbert became enamored
of Georgia. It was generally known by
those employed In the offioe that Gil
bert waa a married man, hts wife liv
ing In New York. The young woman
refused to receive hts attentions. Ho be
came so persistent that she found tt
necessary to call upon Mr. Curtis to
defend her. On hearing her complaint
Curtis promptly sought Gilmore nnd
challenged him to fight a duel. Then he
wrote him a formal letter renewing tho
invitation. Gilbert refused to fight.
’ Curtta next tried to make Gilbert
fight by insulting him, Stepping on his
toes and pushing against him while
they were In the office. This state of
affairs became so unpleasant that Cur
tis deemed tt best to resign. He accord
ingly sent in hts resignation to take
effect Marchl 17, 1893. It was accepted
with reluctance by Engineer Wallace.
Both he and Second Vice President
Harahnn gave Curtis excellent letter*
of introduction .Since then Curtis hnd
not been regularly employed nnd
worked occasionally soliciting trade
among small grocers and private per
sons for soap firms.
Soon nfter giving up his position with
the Illinois Central Company he left
hi* boarding house at 32i Mitchell
avenue, and went to live at 308 Indiana
street He had evidently saved hla sal
ary ’and had plenty of money at all
times. When the All Baba company f"

New Orleani. La. Sept. 17.—There
wa» a triple lynohtng almost within the
shadow of the city last night, but it
waa conducted so quietly that the ac
count of the horrible affair published
this morning waa a surprise to th# com
munity. Thi victims of the vengeance
of the mob were throe negro brothers
named Julian and the crime whicit th:y
expiated in .-o summary a nntmer was
th* shielding of ;i fo-.:r:h brother, lto-
scllt's Julian, who, on Friday uft.a’ztoon
•hot Judge Victor Eetopin.il to death
WbK0 the latter was trying him for
some trivial offense, seriously wound:d
the Judge's sou and then mad® good his
escape. Ths shooting occurred in the
court room and -tho murderer continued
flrius until the Judge, who followed
close in upon him f .11 montrlly wounded
immediately outside and to the left of
«ho building. Tho brutal negro then
stood over the prostrate form of hts
vic.im and tired a fourth shot, which to
supposed to be the one that passed
through tho heart.
THU? negro -thru made a dash across
th* ground* for Ms cabin. Just at this
time August Estoptnal, a son of the
murdered official, who Is employed as a
conductor on th* Carrollton rood, was
coming in from Ms work, and h» gave
chase to the man whom he had Just
seen murder his father. The negro
reached hla cabin, fired two shots at the
young man. who sought safety in
bouse adjoining th* residence of Mrs.
Charles Fiery.
Th* negro provided himself well wWh
ammunition while In the cabin, for du
ring his abort stay he grabbed up a va
lise and n Winchester rifle. It waa from
thl* rifi? that h* fired the two shots by
which young Kxtoptnal was wounded.
