Madrid, Sept. 29.—The misuse of the
word “ultimatum” in relation to the
recent representations made by Gen.
\Voodford, the United States Minister,
to the Duke of Tetuan, Minister of
Foreign Affairs, is now explained. An
ultimatum must always be written,
and its purport must also invariably
be communicated in writing to the
representatives of the Power to which
the ultimatum is presented.
Gen. VVoodford, in accordance with
diplomatic usage requiring all im-
portant communications to be in writ-
ing, addressed a letter to the Duke of
Tetuan reiterating in diplomatic lan-

BICYCLE CAUSE FOR DIVORCE.
After Twenty-five Years of Married
Life a Couple Is Separated.
Poughkeepsie, Sept. 29,—After twen-
ty—five years of married life Mrs. Au-
gustus T. Cookingham of Hyde Park
has brought suit for a separation. Au-
gustus Cookingham is 55 years old, and
is a prosperous seed dealer. Four years
ago he employed his niece, Miss Luella
Palmater, 20 years old, to assist him.
Mrs. Cookingham in her complaint
states that soon her husband began to
show marked attention to Miss Palma—
ter, and to take her with him when he
went bicycle riding. As Mrs. Cook-
‘mgham does not ride a bicycle, she has
to stay at home. Mr. Cookingham and
iMiss Palmater attended church fairs
l Cookingham says,
together, and even rode to this city and
went to the theatre. Finally, Mrs.
Miss Palmater re-
fused to speak to her in her own house.
Then Mrs. Cookingham went away and
through her attorney commenced an
action for separation, which will be
tried before Judge Barnard at Special
Term on next Saturday.

GENERAL TRACY NOMINATED. _
A Gold Democrat Wanted for Comps
trailer of New York.
New York, Sept. 29.——The Republican
convention last night nominated for
Mayor of the greater city Gen. Benja-
min F. Tracy. District Attorney Olcott
named Tracy, and Jacob Worth, of
Brodklyn, nominated Seth Low. The
vote resulted in Tracy receiving 297;
Low, 49; Schroeder, 2. Present Comp-
troller Fitch, a Democrat, was nomi-
nated for the position he now holds.
Gen. Tracy, in accepting the nomina-
tion, said in part:.
“Two considerations have induced
me after most anxious thought to ac-
cept the nomination which you have
tendered me; first, the gravity of the
crisis which now confronts the people
of this great city; and, second, the‘
fact that so many Republicans and
other friends of good government, in
whose judgment I have confidence,
have urged me to acceptyour nomina-
tion in the hope that in the present
state of division and disunion I can
contribute somewhat to bring into har-
monious action and to unite under one
banner all the opponents of Tam-
many Hall.
“The gravity of the crisis is appar-
ent to all thinking men, whether it be
viewed from a national or from a local
standpoint. The Spectre of Bryanism
will not down, and what has been well
called ‘the campaign of disturbance
and devastation’ is’stingoing on. In‘
the providence of God, the Republican
party for more than forty years has
been the great bulwark of national
honor and prosperity, and its mission
is not ended. In the future as in the
past it should be the effort of all Be-
publicans to make it the instrument of
the people to secure good government
in the city as well as in the State and
in the nation. Any attempt to disin-
tegrate, weaken or destroy that
organization in this great commercial
metropolis, however well intended, is,
I must be permitted to believe, a.
grievous mistake, fraught with calam-
ity and disaster.
“If it shall hereafter appear to your
representatives that instead of pro-
moting harmony and success my can-
didacy stands in their way, I should
wish to have your permission to adopt.
that course which, in my judgment and
In the judgment of your representa-
tives, shall seem to be the course of
duty and of honor. Nothing could be
more hateful to me than the thought
that I had perversely stood in the way
of that complete union of all possible
elements of opposition to Tammany
Hall which provides the best assurance
of success.”
The convention did not for some un-
accountable reason indorse the admin-
lstration of Mayor Strong, although it
in its platform for
:PLOT to KILL THE CZAR.
A Tunnel Dug Under One of the
Streets of \Varsaw.
Cable Dispatch to the New York Sun.
London, Sept. 29.—~An elaborate plot
against the Czar and Czarina was con-
cocted several weeks before the arrival
of their Majesties on their recent visit
to Warsaw, and has just come to light.
The conspirators undermined Novis-
viat street, one of the principal thor-
oughfares of the city, running between
the Governor's palace and the royal
castle, where the Czar resided during
his sojourn. As the . tunneling was
completed the earth above the excava-
tion threatened to collapse, and the
conspirators hired masons to strength-
en the tunnel. The latter became sus-
picious of the use to which the tunnel
was to be devoted and informed the
police.
The conspirators were captured. The
total number of arrests made was 120.
No Trouble at Hawaii.
Washington, Sept. 29.—Mail dis-
patches from Honolulu were received
at the State and Navy department's
yesterday. Minister Sewall’s report re-
viewed the conditions prevailing in
Hawaii. He said that the Japanese
were acting in a peaceable manner,
and that no trouble of any sort was
apprehended. The Minister’s report
contained the interesting information
that the Japanese Government was
willing to settle its claims against
Hawaii for the payment of $100,000 in
gold. '
In View of the prospect afforded by
this peaceable method of arranging the
differences between the two countries,
Mr. Sewall thought hostilities were not
In any degree likely, although he did
not say that Hawaii would agree to
Japan’s proposition. The Hawaiian
Government has combated the Jap-
anese contention that a suitable in-
demnity should be paid for the refusal
of the authorities of the republic to al-
low Japanese immigrants to land, and
for violation of treaty provisions.
Stru- Polnter’s New Record.
Terre Haute, Sept.' 29.—At the annual
meeting of the Terre Haute Trotting
Association yesterday the special fea-
tures were Star Pointer’s attempt to
beat his record of 1.5914, an exhibition
mile by Joe Patchen, and a 2.18 pace for
a purse of $5,000. The first quarter
was covered in 31% seconds. When
this time was displayed there was lit-
tle hope left for a. two-minute mile.
The half was done in 1.01%, with the
fastest part of the track to he traveled.
The third quarter was in 28 seconds, a
1.52 gait. It was the fastest quarter
ever made. and the half mile in 58%
seconds is the fastest half-mile record.
Horsemen said that they‘had heard of
quarters in 28 seconds, but never before
saw a. horse step it.
Democrats in a Blot.
Worcester, Mass, Sept. 29.—The police
were called into last night's Demo-
cratic convention to remove Congress-
man Fitzgerald, of Boston. He refused
to leave the platform when ordered to.
The whole hall was thrown into an
uproar. The riot lasted five minutes,
and was quelled with difficulty.
George “Fred” Williams quieted the
crowd, and it was arranged to let
Fitzgerald have five minutes in which
to close his speech.
A Gold Democrat-Republican.
Utica, Sept. 29.—The Republican City
Convention has nominated Thomas
E. Kinney for Mayor, the Citizens’
Union having already nominated him
by petition. He was Mayor in 1885,
1886 and 1887, having been elected by
the Democrats. He was a gold Demo—
crat in 1896: The conventionratified
the St. Louis platform. Indications are
that the Democrats will indorse silver.
