aa. GOSSIP GATHERED vt IN HOTEL LOBBIES. Oontractor 8tewart Again Bugpend Work at Fass-a-Loutre. The Winds and Currents Make It Hazardous for the Ken. One Man Blown Off and Drowned on Thursday.

St. Louis Fleasnre-Seekers Compli-mentNew Orleans Personal and General Notes. Among the late arrivals at the St-Cbarles last night was John L. Stewart, sirlor member of tbs wcll-kno-ti tirm of contractors who have been doing so much work for the psst few years in New Or-leens and this state. Mr.

Stewart registers from St. Louis, bis home, bat he has just come up from the mouth of the river. vhre bs has been looking after the crevasse closing there, an enterprise In ahicb be a-nd a large force of men have been actively engaged for the past two months, or longer. "We hsve had to quit the wark," suid Mr. Stewart, "right on the very eve of Its completion.

There yet rrmains about 150 feet of the face of the crevasse to oe closed. and we made a desperate effort to close it, but the winds were entirely too heavy. Why, the wiDds are blaw-lng a gale almost down tbe river mouth these days. Oar men cannot remain upon tue piling at ull. We lost a man yesterday, -an eo we gave up the completion until there is a lull In tbe winds.

The current at tbe of the crevasse is very swift. The minute this workman fell from tbe piling we bad boats at the spot, but he vas never seen again." Mr. Btewart gives it as hla oplnlou that there la a gentle scouring or lue paes going on now, tboogh lie is 'o authority upon that subject, and ha bad no occasion to make soundings, etc. lfe says tbe rapidity of the currents wouid lead one to believe that a scouring out of the pass Vs going on now much livelier than bfore the crevasse was closed. Mr.

-Stewart comes to New Orleans In order to go east, where he has some large contract 10 look after. He will confer with his local representatives, uud then travel to New York tuia eveniug or to-uiorrow. Mr. Stewart was asked relative to the wark at P.squeiuiue, here bis eouipany also has charge of constructing the lock. "Why, we ure Just starting tbat work.

Our Mr. 'Locker, from Chicago, who has bod charge of hoisting large dredges, lifting machine, has Just returned, coming in this evening, and be tells me that his work Is complete. Tills will enable us now to get down to actual lock building, and we hope to have the work well under way in a few days." Mr. Stevvart also has charge of building additional wbarfage for the New Or.eans and Western Road at Chalmette, and he says tbat tbU work ia progressing epl-n-dldly. Mr.

Stewart was asked If be could give the reporter a line upon tbe construction of additional elevators here, it being understood that his company were contracting with the Southern Pacific and the Illinois Central Roads for sucb work. "If such contracts were pending." said he. "we would not be at liberty to uivulge any facta connt-cted therewith Railroads here will need more elevators, and tbey are coming beyond all doubt, and we hope to have tbe building of them, but as yet we have nothing to say about such contemplated work." Mr. Stewart pays his respects to the grain future of New Orlesns, and no man Is better fitted perhaps to predict what the future for the city In this respect anight ba. Mr.

Stewart baa built all the elevators la New Orleans, end they are considered the best in the country. There Is no doubt but tbat tbe company will, rn a few months, begin the construction of another one for tbe Illinois Central. Where this elevator will be located depends upon what dieposltioa the Illinois Central people have made of their application for track privilege along the river front AJid leading into their river front property.

The euicide put on end to his existence by shooting himself through tbe right temple lii the aud the discovery was made by bla son, I'aul Diiffour. who was in the dining-room, which adjoins the parlor.

He was widely known throughout the city, enpeclaily in years gone Dy aa a prosperous business man, especially as a dealer In wine, but of late as a wine drummer for various merchants in the city.

He prospered as a wine drummer, but of late his business gradually began to fall away, which fact brought oat by tiit recent importation Into this market of an abundant supply of the California wine. This grade of the grape Juice began retailing at such a figure tbat Mr Duffour was unable to compete with It. Thl. It Is said, began to prey upon hU mind, but bis family never for a moment thought that he contemplated committing snlclde, as he appeared to be jovitil and In the best of -plrits at all iluies. and his set last evening was a terrible surprise to them.

Yeterdiy he as met on the street by several fMeud snd appeared to them to be Jovial, and visited Mr. Frank Carambat'a salmon, on Decatur street.

He reached about four feet from tbe door when he suddenly pulled out hts revolver, and placing the barrel to bU temple, sent a bullet crashing through his brain. The ballet made ltd exit at the top of tbe head and struck a picture on tbe wall, shattering tbe glass and tbe frame fell to the floor.

The man alag-gered and fell on tbe floor, and his son rnabed into the room and found irm lying on hi left aide, with the vrespon in aid nana.

The exquisite embroidered nets now in the market make the heart of the average woman ache. She ssjs to herself that a gown of suoti Is a wicked extravagance for any but the richeut folk, that the lining of such material must be of the very best satin or silk, that weH.

there! She Just can have it! That Is sensible tsik, as a rule, but these high class nets and embroidered robea deserve consideration. They are really fine that Is, the gold tbread or beading Is of the txwt, beads or spangles are set on by hand, usually with gold or metal thread which doea not cut, and the net la silk. A little of such material. If very carefully used, goes a great way and snows to fine advantage. There 1.

for instance, a drew width not on tbe market now. It 4 'Hrorr1" with little circles of fold thread. Inclosing a gold spangle fastened on with a crystal bead. That's the only sure way to fasten on a spangle. There ia a deep border of points outlined witu the gold thread, snd a lot of go4d tiiread scrolling and bands.

The tbred Is txui-lion In that pretty machine cfaaln stitch. A ahouhler yoke, prolonged to a point in front thst reaches the waist, will come out of a yard of and leave for sleeve tops. Under it can go a good qualtty of china silk, lined, ot course. The reat of the dress can be perfectly plain, of broadcloth. iaOles' cloili, canra or silk.

The entire cost, then, is not prohibitive, while the undeniable elegance of effect is a great satisfaction. There is no end, of course, to tne forma the net take. Another use for it ia suggested by this picture, a dress oC dark-gray broadciotn. Ha trrmmlag wan buck spangled net over white satin and edged in the bretelles In a band near the skirt's hem with black velvet ribbon. A lrttls of trie net was added, tooy to the braided bow that held the white satin belt, and the deep yoke was faeavy Ivor jace.

The amount of Che net could be made much ieaa than this, and by clever application be rendered quite enough to give distinction to a gown.

This untrue. I arrived at Siboney. July 28, at that time there were but six Spaniards la tbe hospital. 1 was the onry nurse that ever attended them. On the 27th of July, I dressed t5firyOBas- the 28tb they were shipped to Santiago, and none retained to Siboney.

nor were there any Span- that place after this Incident. We bad. It la true, many of yellow fever. Heat exhaustion carried off many. la some instances, patients were undoubtedly neglected, but owl? to the fact tbat we had i JtT wo female trained nnrsea on the and we could the wants of TSO patients.

"The hospital corps, men of tbe regn-k o'k hsid after the bettle that they were ntterly broken down, and could reader no assistance. Quinine was uaed freely, but It was certainly needed, at lesst one-half of tbe esses being of malarial origin. "The sick were all around us In various stages of disease some of collapse. One of the statements accused the names of using hypodermic Injections freely and not caring who received them. During my course of training la the New Or-lesna Sanitarium I learned that while there waa life there was hope, and I.

for one. used the hypodermic Injections, but with good effect Of course, I gave tbem to dying men In hope of bringing on a re-action. "I often remained on duty nearly half the night. My ward contained fifty patients. Three times In five weeks It was nearly emptied by the convalescents being sent home, sad daring this period only five desths occurred In this wsrd.

iU A great deal baa bean written about the food furnished at the detention camp. The food was plain but good and wholesome, and we had some kind of canned fruit st slmost every meal. I know that I fared no better than the reat. for sll the female nnrses messed tos-etpher. Sometimes articles spoiled owihg to the Intense heat daring but this wss to be eineetel A I nnrse contract onlv called for 'army 1 rations, snd we had no right to com- piam it we received nothing more.

"The patients were fed upon canned soups, cooked corn starch, malted milk, rice. tea. beef tea. oat meal and tapieoa. Mrs.

Dunkliwon. of New York, and Misa Painter of Brasll. both expert diet cooks, had charge of the diet kitchen snd personslly supervised the cooking for the sick. "As a rule. I found the contract surgeons good men: they certainly did everything in their power to alleviate the sufferings of the patients.

I have known Dr. Newklrk. of Bay City, and Dr. Meyer Herman, of Nw Oriesne. ohJUP wltn their pat ents until both physicians were broken down from want of sleep.

"In regards to stimulants, all orders made out by an attendant and signed by the physician In charge of tre ward, were honored at the commissary. received all the brandy, whlaky. champagne and wine that they needed. The bottle stood in the ward and the nurses gsve of it to the patient needing It. "I never met a finer set of men than the hospital stewards at Siboney.

We were fortunate enough in having with ns the two stewards who were considered the best in the regular army Steward Chas. Parker and Hospital Steward Joseph F. Waters. To thee rsro men Siboney owes her exemption fro.n the por food, and the many petty annoyances of some of the other field hospitals. Hospital Steward Waters was In charge the commls-ry department.

He Is well known In New Orleans and Mobile. Mr. Waters ha been in the regular army for nineteen years, and any one making the statement that delicacies could be purchased at the commissary makes a grave charge against a man ot the highest honor and Integrity. Nothing In the commissary wa for sale, and no article waa Issued except on an order algnvd by physician. One man obtained two cans of peacbea on aa order and sold them for 60 cents.

He waa promptly arrested and placed In the guardhouse. To tbe honor cf my country, I can say that he waa not aa American. The nurses who contract ed under Dr. Adair had no trouble tn receiving their pay. Ail they had to do waa to send their contracts to Santiago Dy tne messenger, ana as a rule they received their money on the same day.

jisses juattie uinton ana Jdary csrlton were finally pat on night duty in mr ward, 'lnese two folthiul, conscientious young women endeared themselves to all my patients, through their kindness and thoughtfnlues. "Many of the contract nurses did noble work. Miss Wnite had tne finest ward on "the grounds, and finally was given the position of chief nurse. Mlas P. G.

Girault was In charge of a ward, and did much good work, but, unfortu nate, she fell ill. and hss returned to the states. Tbe Misses Carlton and Mrs. Celles also deserve much prslse. Among tbe men, John i'ltzgersld, Chas.

Downey, Ueorge Ludwick, Kev. ttims, John Voqtje-lin, Mr. Ureely and Mr. Martin worked faithfully. 1 aid not know all tbe nurses by name, and others may have deserved equal praise.

Emma Jatto and Mammy Cobbs, colored, were both good workers. Mammy is still with as, st detention camp, and tbe officials are unwilling that she should 10 home. "I notice, too. that many of the soldiers are also complaining of their treatment. Before coming to Cuba thtlr friends all told them of the dangers, privations and discomforts to which they would be exposed.

They laughed, snd ssld tbat tbey wouldn't in in ft It. Yet these very men. knowing what they had to expect, are the ones who now coxnlaln the most. I thiuk tbat they should be better soldiers thin that. "Food, as I understand, waa only scarce for a few days, and that was ostng to tbe fact that the soldiers, to lighten them selves, threw aside their knapsacks, con talntnr rations for several days.

Tbe Cu bane then stole the food. All the pack trains were employed In carrying ammo nltion. so that the battle could he con tlnued, and the wagons could not be drawn up the steep mountains. ban Juan hill is high mountain, with rough. precipitous del, and after seeing it one wonders how a man lived after trying to cross It.

I was told that after the battle they brought tbe men down aa soon as possible, ana alter getting tnem to siboney they received plenty of food. In many cases men able to crawl hid away rather than come to the hospital, as the word 'hospital' frightened them. The boys of the Eighth Ohio, the Thirty-third and Thirty-fourth Michigan and the First Illinois melted down like snow in tbe sun. They were all right ror ngnt in the Soaniards. but lighting this ell mate laid them oct, and until outside aid came, often there was no one able to look after the sick.

The government was not to blame; It was simply one of those cases that could not be helped. "We are no longer at Slbonev.

Lack of interest, lack of patronage and several other little mstters are responsible for the temporary demise. That is.

"There were Internal dlssea-slona among the members; too much rivalry, that could not stand tbs light of permanent agreement, are. twoof the things that did op the eicbangeTbe Institution was a good one; no other commercial exchange in the city did more for the preservation of rates in the respective lines) of trade than did tbe Frnlt Fx-change, lint some of the members wanted that which the body aa a whole ceo Id not sanction.
