Now, I will tell you all I have to communicate of interest. But suppose I had Wittrock’s confession under lock and key, can you not imagine a phase in this case which would make the publication of that confession fatal to us? ? He is now under the jurisdiotion the State Court in Missouri, and we have no further use for him here.“ What has Wittrock said to you?“ WITTROCK ASSUMES ALL RESPONSIBILITY. He says he wants to assume the ’ sponsibility forthe whole business, and WIII do all he can to recover the stolen money.“ How does Wittrock impress you!“ „If ever there was atruthful boy, he has been one in his disclosures to us. „There seems to have been several women in the case!“ ‘*Well, I should say so.

HE D ENOCKED COLD BY BILLY MYERS IN THIRTY-TWO ROUNDS. ‘The St. Louis Lightweight Proves No Match for the Illinois Boxer—A Lively Mill in a Lonely Spot This Moraing—The Fight in Detail. By Telegraph to the Post-DisParTcn. BLOOMINGTON, III., December 29.—The fight between Charley Daly of St. Louis and Billy Myers of Streator, III., with small gloves to a finish. came off last night at 12 o'clock, at . Woodford, a small town on the [Illinois Oen- tral Railway, about thirty miles north of Bloomington. The authorities all over this section of Illinois were on the alert with the intention of stopping the fight if they could, but for once the officials were completely thrown off the scent by the sports. A special train was chartered by the Dlinois Central Railway representative here for the use of a party of gentlemen said to be going out to a meeting of hunters. It was intended to have the fight at Minonk, but the OWNER OF THE HALL there refused to let the building for the contest, and the train went south to a lit- tle station called Woodford where the load of sports was emptied. Both Dalyand Myers were promptly on the ground and in splendid condition. Odds were freely offered on Daly. At 12:30 o’clock this morning time was called and the slugging match began. To the surprise of all, Myers proved himself the better man from ithe start, and forced the fighting. With the small gloves they used, he dealt the St.Louis man blow after blow with the precision and power of a trip hammer. Thirty-two rounds were fought, Daly getting the worst of the fight in every round. In the last round Daly was knocked completely out by a tremendous swinging blowon theneck. There was no claim of foul, and it was a square vic- tory for the Streator man. Myers is four pounds heavier than Daly, but is a new man in the ring. He will un- dertake to knock out Tommy Warren, the champion light-weight, in the near future. BILLY MYERS is 27 years old and has never been consid- ered a professional. He is a native of Illinois and of Irish descent. He is edu- cated and his parents rich, and he is the last man to be picked out of a crowd as a fighter. This is his third battle. He, knocked out Paddy Welch of Chicago on two dif- ferent occasions. Bloomington money backed Daly, and it is said the fraternity of this city and of St. Louis lost thousands of dollars. Daly went into the fight the favorite by great odds, and that he should be com- pletely paralyzed in a square battle by a new manisone of the greatest surprises that the admirers of pugilism here have received for many years. Not a foul} was cleitmed by either side in the whole thirty-twa rounds, and there is not any excuse for the knovk-out except that Myers is much the better man. Myers bere 4 on the scales at 142 pounds and Daly at 138. DALY RUSHED CONSIDERABLY through the fight, and Myers kept on the defensive until the critical moment. Frank Schuck of the Globe-Democrat, St. Louis, and S. 8. Mokay, were referees. Jack Cain was time- keeper. The fight lasted two hours and eight minutes, and took place in a large billiard hall. Tickets were sold at $, and more than one hundred spectators were admitted. Myers got two black eyes, but was not otherwise hurt. He was apparently fresh at the end of the thirty-second round. Daly got a slit in his lip, but was not badly punished. THE BLOW that knocked Daly out was delivered with Myers’ left and Daly went down in a heap, although it is claimed that he slipped and in falling with Myers on top of him knocked all the wind outof himself and could not come to time. The referees gave the fight unconditionally to Myers. ere have so far been no arrests. The Men. Daly and Myers are both lightweights and fight at between 135 and 140 pounds. Daly is well knownin St. Louis and is about 23 years of age. This is the first fight of an rominence he has ever N in, and is is second fight to a finish. is first fight was the battle with young Will Zachritz, which took place in this city about two ears ago. The mill was with somewhat big gloves and resulted, after a prolonged struggle in which neither man was badly hurt, in a W. A Bloody Battle. PITTSBURG, December 29.—A bare-knnckle prize-fight between two heavy-weight iron- workers, named Baker and White, took place on the’ banks of the Allegheny River in the Tenth Ward at an early hour this morn . Twenty-one rounds were f 8. resulting in the defeat of White. The mill“ lasted forty- five minutes and was pronounced one of the bieodiest batties ever fought in this Vicinity, BIG PREFERENCES.

The letter which itis stated will be dis- patched this week held forth the amount of assessment which each mem- ber pays the rate which is levied for the support of the district, State and General Assemblies, and claims that after all these obligations are discharged and the local expenses are paid each assembly should be at liberty to devote any sur- plus which it may have at the end of any quarter . for the ro- motion of any object which it may see fit. It further characterizes Mr. Powderly’s recent order as having been issued by him at the requestof a small clique in Chicago, who do notrep- resent the majority of the Knights and who wish to govern by the use of the Chief Executive’s whip. It warns him against being led away by ‘‘old fogies’’ in the labor movement here, vigorously protests against the action he has taken explains that his action will be interpreted as having been taken in the interests of capital and the old political parties, asks for the appointment of a committee to in- vestigate labor matters in this city, and demands a revocation of the order issued. It also explains that unless the latter is done his authority in this city in a majority — the local assemblies will not be recog- n . 2 The Turner’s Movement. CHICAGO, December 29.—When the Ex- ecutive Committee of the Chicago Turn- er’s District submitted a proposition to issue a protest against the execution of. the anarchists, nine of the seventeen soci- eties making up the district demanded that a special district convention be called to impeach the Executive Committee for transgressing its authority and eventually remove it. Since that time a request has been sent to the Turner societies by John Gloy, Speaker of the District, not to insist on the calling of the special convention. His request was not granted and the matter bids fair to cause a split within the district. The Speaker has not yet called the special convention, and it is said has, in private, declared that he will not do so, although the constitution of the district makes it his duty to call such a convention at the request of six of the societies. The rest of the Executive Committee be- long to the Vorwaerts Turn Verein, the same the speaker belongs to. They are not disposed to antagonize him. Should he refuse much longer to act on the demand of the nine societies, they will issue the call themselves in spite of him, and in that event the rupture be- tween the Radicals and Conservatives will become irrepressible. A movement to this end is going on at present, and is causing 2 : stir among all the Turners in the istrict. Deserting the Order. opposition of the Roman Catholic ch and the refusal of the clergy to admit members of the Knights of Labor to the rights of the church, including the Christ- mas retreats and the communion, the membership of many of the French 1 es in this diocese has fallen off. Itis sta that the A of one of the = parishes refused tbe Christmas communion to over a thousand of his parishioners who were members of the organization. The ma- jority of them consequently severed their connection with the order and were ad- mitted to the sacred. rite. A prominent member of the Knights of Labor informed a corres the officials of the order in Montreal reo- ognize the fact that this continued 3 sition of the church aud consequent defeo- tion of the members must shortly lead to the dissolution of the French | es. 4 —_ ae 4 The General Executive Board Alarmed. PHILADELPHIA, December 29.—Lewis F. Smith, Master Workman of Local Assem- bly No. 17, Knights of Labor, received a telegram yesterday from John F. Hall, a member of District Assembly No, 49 of New York City, requesting Assembly No, 17 not to take any action upon its withdrawal, as General ster Workman Powderly had sent a letter to Mr. Hall bearing on the subject.

A PRETTY GIRL, AGED FOURTEEN YEARS, BURNED TO DEATH While on a Debauch with a Negro Coachman Tragedy Reveals an Awful Story of De- pravity. ? A case of terrible depravity was brought to light last evening in an accidental manner. A woman calied at the Third District Police station and reported that her daugh- ter, Laura Belle Varley, alias Warm- bold, 14 years of age, had ieft her home, No. 1719 Morgan street, yesterday morning, in company with Lena Stumpf, alias Hull, a girl about 18 years of age. She stated that the Stumpf girl had a very bad reputa- tion, and that she feared that she had taken her child away for no good purposes. Shortiy after she. had left, the police learned that the missing girl had been badly. burned at Robert E. Carr’s stable, No. 8130 Lucas avenue, and had been sent to the City Hospital. It appears that at 6:45 p. m., while Officers Leyden and Nace of the Fifth District were passing along Compton avenue they heard screams from a girl and saw her rolling about in the snow on the street on Compton avenue, between Lucas and Washington avenues, her clothing allin flames. Rushing up to where she was lying they took off their overcoats and wrapt her in them, extinguishing the flames, with | the assistance of a couple of citizens. One of them was Dr. Brokaw, of No. 8200 Lucas Avenue. The girlwas taken into his office, and sent from there to the City 2 and thenceto the City Hospital. Every in of her body with the exception ofa small spot in the shoulder and aspace under her corsets was burned, and she now lies very low at the hospital with little ee oy toi her recovery. To the officers the girl stated that her name was LAURA BELLE VARLEY, but that she was also known by the names of Wambald and Smith, and that she was gener- ally called Ss. She = a native of 88. an with her aunt. Yesterday and as she was very cold she went with her to the stable in the rear of Mr. Carr’s residence, No. 3130 Lucas avenue, to get warm. The Stumpf girl repre- sented to her, she stated, that she had some girl friends in there. After entering and going upstairs a sare man came in. Some time afterward the Stumpf girl and the colored coachman left the room and went down-stairs together. 8 their absence she discovered that her clothing had caught fire and she hurried down-stairs and rushed out into the street screaming. {ter running some distance she threw herseif down where she was found by the officers. The negro, who was Mr. Carr’s coachman, said that the girls had come into the stable to- yether, and that he afterward took the ripen — 24 stairs, leaving the little girl up in the room where the stove is, About ten min- utes later she came running down, her clothing. afire, and rushed out into the alley and up the alley to the street. ben asked why he did not endeavor to save her be said that he could do nothing for her as she ran outso quickly.

Churchill replied by a letter, which Salis- bury received at 1 o’clock Thursday CONFIRMING HIS INTENTION OF RESIGNING, and mentioning much in the language used in the communication to the Times his dissatisfaction with the legislative programme of the Government. Church- fli had not before alluded to this subject: in connection with his resignation, A few hours iater the announcement ap- peared inthe Times. Salisbury confirms my statement that the estimates proposed were not very large. „My only fear,” he says, on hearing of them was that they were insufficient.’’ Churchill maintains profound silence, and replies to all inquiries as to his inten- tions that Salisbury has forbidden him to make any statement about Government matters until the meeting of Parliament. Despite this, however, I have no doubt that we shall see a long Randolphian manifesto some fine morning in the Times. The storm has delayed both Harting- ton’s person and opinions. His arrival is awaited with intense anxiety. All the Unionists have returned to London to have the first word with him. With regard to Chamberlain’s attitude as shown by his very conciliatory speech at Birming- ham, I can further say that the Irishmen will have none ofit. Parnell himself is believed rightly to have said that not a man of his party will agree to CHAMBERLAIN’S PROPOSED BASIS OF RE- UNION. About another matter, which will be found to have extremely important re- sults, I can state that unexpected private reconciliations have given them hopes of “public and political harmony in the in- terests of Gladstonian Liberalism. The most likely outcome of the whole compli- cations is, I must repeat, the dissolution of Parliament. Salisbury’s difficulties are extremely great. It is still believed that an election would give a consistent conservative majority. The storm has entirely severed tele- graphic communication with South En- gland and the continent, with the result of many ugly rumors afioat. Much anx- lety is felt as to the course of events which are believed to be taking shape pretty rapidly. England. THE BULGARIAN DEPUTATION.

MAYOR FRANCIS first spoke for the low bridge delegation. He said he did not expect to make an argument, but only to meet objections when he came. He offered to the board the harbor boat and the assistance of the city engineers to investigate the subject practically. The claims of the merchants had been represented to the Commerce Committee of Congress at Washington. 47 Abbott asked about the location of the ridge. Ar W. G. Clark, who had something to do the bill before Con- was detter not locality as it would roperty so much in North somewhere between with drawin affect the price of St. Louis. It would be the continuation of the boundary of the Madison and St. Clair Counties, Iliinols and the Chain of Rocks. The bridge would robably be constructed between North Mar- et street and the reservoirs, a distance of one and one-baif miles. Mayor Francis then continued his ument referring to the work of the Merchants’ Exchange for the city. He said the city was carrying an unjust burden inthe bridge toll, which fell on its business going East or coming from the East, while it was merged in the rates of shipments which originated in the East or West. This load can not pe borne by the city’s commerce. There is no question o the necessity of a bridge, only a question as to the kind. @ then gave a history of the fran- chise which was sought, showing how the ntees were appointed, and bow the option ill allowed for the construction of a high or low bridge. He said the plans would be pre- sented to the board. Mr.J.G. Chapman of the Eau Claire Lumber Co., spoke for the opposition. He wanted the location settied and said he did not opposea high * and recognized the necessity for it, but alow bridge would be destruction to the rafting and lumber business of the 7 Mayor Francis replied that the chief thing was to get a bridge and this bill made the high or low structure 8 He said according to estimates of 300 Ernst the low bridge would cost about $2,500,000 and the high bridge ut 5S, „000. Mr. Chapman claimed that the current and driftwood made a low bridge impracticable and said he had been told that the difference in cost between the two would not amount to more „000 and suggested that the projectors not own any railroadand that after — * sold the franchise the obstruc- tion would still remain. r Francis said: Lam surprised that a gentieman like Mr. Chapman should make such a statement after receiving an assurance that the promoters did not hope. for any pri- vate gain. Mr. N took hie seat and Mr. Huse arose, but yielded the floor to his Honor to make this reply. Mr. Huse was about to speak, when Mr. Holmes interrupted him, a said: Mayor Francis has given his assurance, and we join in it, and I say that the gentlemen appearing here on this guestion are the peers of any men in the city and the superiors of any man who will cast a slur like that upon them.’’ Mr. Chapman made no reply, andi Gen. Abbott and Mr. Huse avertedascene by ad- dressing the meeting on the original subject. MR. RAINWATER submitted that the issue was fairly made. The Merchants’ Bridge S asked the passage of the bill now in the Senate, and which had been favorably reported by the House. The company itself had not yet determined whether they would want a high orlow bridge. The needs of commerce demandedacheap bridge, so that charges, avery low rate in fact, could be light on freight. The objection that the new bridge might come under the control of the other company was covered bv a clause in the bill which provided that it should become the property of the United States ifany attempt was made to pool its earnings or issues with the ex- isti bridge. The object of the gentiemen interested in the mbvement was n unselfish and with a view of increasing he interests of the city. Mr. Rainwater also thought that the discussion of the question of low or high bridge, should be deferred until the passage of the bill. The chairman read the instructions to the special committee, which provided for in- ulry into everything pertinent to the con- struction, and he felt that the question of high or low bridge should not be discussed. CAPT. J. H. STOUT, ofthe Knapp-Stout Lumber Company, read a protest net alow @ because of the shifting of the channel near St. Louis. Mayor Francis said that the com y was eratified to learn, though for the first time, that the opposition was not to a bridge of any kind but was concentrated upon a low bridge. He asked if he was right in supposing chat the commission would report in favor of a high bridge if that it was proposed to construct .

Carlisle on Tariff Legislation. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPaTcu. WasntneTon, D. C., December 29.— Speaker Carlisle does not think there will be any legislation to reduce the surplus. The time is now too short, he says, and there is too great a disagreement on both sides of the House to enable it to pass any measure looking to cutting down taxa- tion. Said he, “The Republicans are united only upon the resistance to the consideration of the Morrison bill. If any proposition to reduce taxes were to be offered on the Republican side, there would instantly be developed as much of a division over there as there is among the Democrats over the Morri- son proposition.“ He said further ‘‘the American people cannot be made to realize the situation until it is upon them. There is hardly ever any legislation passed with regard to a dis- tant future. The emergency must be di- rectly at handin order to awaken the public sentiment necessary to force needed legislation. The payment of the 38-per- cent bonds will go on all through the pending fiscal year. This will cut into the surplus some and relieve the financial world. The people have at present no means of realizing the evil effects of this needless piling up of money in the Treas- ury. But when next year comes, and when we have no bond payments to make, then the people will very soon be made to feel the burden, and Congress will be called on to act at once. Under the pres- sure of possible financial stringency the discordant elements in Congress will be forced to harmonize.”’ „Do you think much, if anything, will be done besides the passage of the appro- priation bills?’’ Not much, The House will undoubt- edly ratify the interstate commerce prop- osition as soon as it reaches it, if it passes the Senate. The House will make short work of it. There may be a few days debate, but the sentiment of the House is overwhelminglv in favor of establishing the mae of governmental regulation of therailroad traffic. They will take the bill as the best that can be at present ob- tained as a recognition of this principle, and will try for something better next time. Do you think the Pacific funding bill will have any chance this winter?’’ No. But it is a special order and is pending in the House!“ know itisa special order, but there are so many ahead of it I do not believe it can be reached. The Agricultural Com- mittee at present has control of most of the House’s time for the balance of the session. It has obtained avery extraordi- . order providing that this committee shall be r nized in preference to all others, exoept those covering appropria- tions or revenue measures. oposi- tions from the Ways and Means Com- mittee, or from the various oqmmittees having charge of appropriation bills can crowd it back. This special order holds good until all of the business reported b this committee has been passed upon. It has already reported the meaty ee ape nia bill, the bill to make the Department of Agriculture the equal of the other de- partments in the Cabmet, and one other geen of a general nature. Unless his committee yields, it has business enough to occupy all the spare time of the session.“ b Brother-in-Law Fryer. By Telegraph to the POst-DiIsPaTcnr. WasHInGTon, D.

Her Intimates Implicate Charles Thomas, an ‘Intelligence Office’ Keeper, in a Horrible Case of Procuring—They De- clare That He Sends Innocent Girls to Dens of Infamy—The Police to Investi- gate Thomas. The Coroner this evening held an inquest on the body of Caroline Henning; alias Lena Brown, the woman who was found dead last evening in herroom at the European Hotel, No. 420 South Fourth street. About 8 o’clock Sunday evening she came in with George Kopf, a butcher in the northern part ol the city and they were registered as George Kopf and Lady’’ and assigned aroom. After remaining a few hours, Kopt left the hotel] stating to the proprietor that he had not beea home for three or four days, and intended to go there. Monday even- ing the woman told the proprietor that she wanted to remain in the room that night, and that ‘‘George’’ would pey for it. e was allowed to keep it, and before going up- stairs asked for and was given a Klass of water. No more was seen of her until 4:20 o’clock last evening, when the chambermaid in fixing up the rooms discovered that the woman’s room was locked. Getting in through a window the woman was found on the bed dead. The giass, in the bottom of which was a whitish powder, was found inthe room with her. It was imme- diately concluded that it was morphine and that she had committed suicide, CAROLINE HENNING was the woman’s right name and she came here a year ago last October and hired out as a domestic in the house, No. 212 Poplar street. She soon tired of work, however, and became a regular inmate ofthe house. She afterward went to live gn Sixth street, then on Third and Pop streets, and finally at 129 Poplar street. There she met Kopf and be- came infatuated with him. She was put out of the house because she would not give him up and went to live at 107 North Thirteenth street; Sunday night she left there and went to the hotel with him and he advertised for a position for her as a domestic. She did not appear to like the lifeshe was leading and seemed anxious to get out of it. She came here from Mt. Olive, III., where she has a brother living. The unfortunate girl was 22 years of age, and rather comely in ap- pearance. On three or four previous occa- sions she made attempts to do away with her- elf. fhe verdict was suicide. TERRIBLE REVELATIONS. Atthe inquest Bertha Meier, an inmate of the house No. 212 Poplar street, gave some testimony that is very damaging to a keeper of an intelligence office in the elty. She testified that the woman came to this country from Germany about three years ago and that about a year ago came to St. Louis. ‘‘When she first came to the city.“ the witness said, she ap- wervant at 1416 Chest rostitution, No. 212 Poplar — er it was a boarding-house. She was a stranger n this country and city at the time, and did not . about the place she was going to, She w weeks there as of shame in the same house. I was brought there by the man. I went there as a servant, al- I knew the kind of a house am there still, The same party, 8 brought several other giris there. I often heard the deceased say she was tired of lead- ing a lite ot shame and would take her life. She had adread of her brother at Mt. Olive finding out her business, and therefore she was not contented nor happy. On the con- trary, she was down- heart and made sev- eral attempts to take her life. She was in the house only about three months when she took laudanum to end der lite, but failed. She told me several times since that the next time she would take morphine and succeed, She tried to purchase morphine at a drug store but failed. She did not drink; she was a temperate girl, ANOTHER CASE. While the Meler woman was giving her tes- timony another woman who accompanied her, stated to Police Officer E Fox that she was also sent to the house by Thomas, who misinformed her of its character. She said it was a long while ago, however. and that she did not care to speak about the matter now. She is known as Pauline.“ Both she and the Meier woman claim that when they went there they were innocent German girls, knowing little of this country or the life they were entering upon. The same, they claim, was the case with the deceased. The verdict was suicide by morphine poison- ing. CHIEF OF POLICE HUEBLER says he will investigate immediately the charges of the Meier woman against Thomas. He says that when the latter procured his license the ‘last time, he was given an excel- lent reputation. A Duchess Labors in the Field.

Paris Walking in Sombre Petticoats and Sleeping in Color-d Night Kobes. From a Letter in the Boston Transcript.

The public rehearsal for the second concert of the Musical Union was held in Music Hall this morning from 10 o’clock until noon. One of the finest audiences which has gathered at a rehearsal enjoyed an admirably selected programme. Mr. Waldauer is showing excellent taste in the se- lection of the programme and i voices the classic and popular music in an altogether enjoyable way. The rehearsal this morning was unusually enjoyable. The programme opened with Beethoven’s Sey- enth Symphony in A major by the orchestra. The beautiful composition was spiendidly the orchestra throughout displayed & smoothness, harmony and skill which proved it in excel- lent form. The Tannhauser overture, the minuette for strings, the the torchlight dance from Brull’s new opera, „Der Landfriede,’’ were rendered with fine shading and harmony. Mme. Trebelli was on the pro me for three selections, but was compelled to respond to encores. She san **Vieni Che Poi Sereno, from Glucks Semi- ramide,’’ with power and artistic effect. Her clear, rich, cultivated voice filled the ball with vocal melody. 8 ond part she san Cowen’s ballad, ‘*Regret,’’ and another selection not on the programme, giving ‘‘Love Was Once a Little Boy“ as an encore.

HE COVERS TOO MANY LAPS AND GETs 2 9 There has been a special brew fermenting in the usually guiet household of Mr. Tony Faust The particular animal in question was the puggiest possible and reveled in the pet and euphonious name of ‘*Cornie.’’ On the sth day of this November passed Cornie either strayed or was stolen from his bome, and for three long weeks there were large aching voids in the atmosphere above the hearth rug and other favorite spots of repose made sacred by his pugship’s selec- tion. Every effort was made by Mr. Faust and the individual members of his family to recover the absent bench-leg delegate, but to no avall. On the 209th day of the month in which Cornie had faded from observation a party giving his name as Mr. Mauer called at the Faust residence and gave information of the dog’s temporary address, for which he received from Mrs. Faust a pre- viously stipulated reward of $10. There was considerabie activity about the house for a few moments, and at length the carriage was announced at the door. Mrs. Faust im- mediately drove to the number on Blair avenue given dy the $10-informer. The house was occupied b Mrs. Armstrong, some other members of her fam- ily, and Cornie, the pug. His expressions of delight at this private interview with his former mistress did great credit to his tact and intelligence. Mrs. Armstrong said she had bought the dog from a boy for , and this sum was refunded her by MRS. FAUST, who reclaimed and took the valued pug.

The Drug Trade and a List of Figures Which Show the Rises and Depressions of the Trade—The Year Am thé Pork-Pack- ers—The Wood and Willow- Ware Trade. The following additional reviews of various branches of business during 1886 will be found to contain facts and figures of moment to all citizens who are inter- ested in the growth of St. Louis. DRUGS AND CHEMICALS. A Branch of Trade Which Holds Its Own Remarkably Well. For several reasons the drug and chem- ical trade of the closing year has not been so profitable as in former years though the showing is satisfactory. St. Louis houses and manufactories have, however, been as successful as their rivals elsewhere, andin some of the principal lines have cut in extensively on the business of com- peting chemists and dealers. During the year no new trade territory has been opened up to this business, as ever int had been fully covered by St. Louis ouses. The year witnessed a decline in several important staples. One of the most remarkable of instances both to the trade and to outsiders is cocaine. A few years ago when Merkle gave out his dis- covery it was discussed in „ and doctor 's office in this country. It was heralded as a panacea, which would ac- complish wonders. One St. Louis ** sician, who is still a stout defender o e drug, had it brought here at a cost of $2.70 per grain. With the in- creased facilities for furnishing a suppl a very general demand grew up an cocaine was used widely.

This great increase has been caused by the almost total failure of the insect flower ield. In the drugs and chemical business ,000 capitalis invested in this city. The annual product is $1,166, 793, THE ARCHITECTS Are by No Means Jubilant Over the Business of the Year 1888. Architects generally report that this year has not been a prosperous one. The cause of this is that most of the buildings going up are small, and in many instances the builders draw up the plans. There have been a few handsome business structures begun during the year, but they have been very few. The elegant Roe building on Broadway and Pine street was completed this year, but it had been under way for two years past. The late Maj. Lee, who built the Chamber of Commerce, was the architect. Mr. Henry Isaacs has in charge the erection of two of the finest buildings in the sf One is the new Bank of Commerce build - ing on Broadway and Olive street. It was commenced this year and will be finished early in the coming year. The other is the beautiful new hall which he is erecting on Ninth and Olive streets for the Odd-Fellows. As yet little progress has been made on the structure, the foundations only being completed. The foundations were laid on Fourth and Olive streets for a magnificent ten- story structure, but work rogressed any ‘further, oundation now stands heart of the city, an eye-sore to all who ass it. ag e gece | year the new ercantile Library building will be com- menced, and it is expected that there will be considerable of a boom in — 1 Isaac Taylor built the new Grand“ bill- iard hall on Sixth and Pine streets; the handsome business structure on Eleventh street and Washington avenue, occupied by George D.

Allen’s new build- ing on Third north of Olive street, which is 2 be occupied by Woodward & Tiernan. Peabody & Stearns built the new St. Louis National Bank building on Broadway be- tween Pine and Olive streets. In the way of fine residences the hou of George W.

Lionberger in Vandeventer an 5 tor members of his fam tenant, and if he does not take this pre- caution his building is apt to lie idle for some time. The reason for this is that there are very few new firms started here, and about the only chance to get a tenant is to secure one whois at present occupying other remises. [fl could secure tenants for he places I could erect $2,000,000 worth of buildings the coming year, but I can’t get the tenants.

PORK-PACKING, The Profits Were Satisfactory but Business in Falling Of. A review of the business done during the year of 1886 in the pork-packing trade will not show much advance for the city. In fact it will show a marked falling off from the business of the year preceding. This deterioration is accounted for in many ways, for while the profits in the business for the year have been quite satisfactory, it is painfully evident that St. Louis asa —— city and a market for all of he hog products is like others, Chicago among the number, giving way to the newer and more western centers. Dur- ing the year two of the largest pork-pack- ing establishments in the city have ceased’ to do business here. One, W. G. Bartle & Co., has withdrawn entirely from the trade, and the other, Henry Ames & Co., have concluded to pull up stakes in St. Louis and locate at Springfield, Mo. In comparing the actual amount of packing done in this city during the sea- son lately closed, and inclu the past month or more, with thatof the season one year ago, it will be found that the difference is largely in favor of the latter. St. Louis has lost her place as second among the packing cities of the United States and now stands much nearer to 1 she „000.

A Staple in Which St. Louis Leads the United 1 States Easily. The wood and willow-ware fade during the past year has continued to prosper. It cannot be said that the business has ex- perienced any remarkable growth within the year for the reason that St. Louis is and has been practically the center of the trade in the entire country, and ig the buying spot for Eastern as well as We markets. The profits have been and the volume of the b for the year has exceeded that of last year from 5 to 10 per cent. While the demand has been greater prices have, as a rule, been lower. The prospects for the trade next year are excellent, and thel houses have no fear that St. Louis wi lose her place asthe leading market for the trade in the United States.

The audience had been intensely amused by Mr. MacDonald, the Triplet, and a dever one, too, trying to keep time with his bow to the music of an orchestra violin and had the laugh on him several times when he failed to scrape in procession. Miss Coghlan was Peg Woffington of course, and when the dance was proposed every one Was prepared to see her make & show of keeping time to Triplet’s voiceless bow.

McLane Hamilton, and another insanity expert, They were waiting for Mrs. Welatha A. Emmons, the rich woman, the stories of whose. freaks have filled American, and lately English, newspapers. Prof. Emmons is her hus- band. Thirteen of the cabin pas- sengers came ashore, but Mrs. Emmons was not among them. She was the only passenger who remained aboard the ship. After a long wait Prof. Emmons and his companions went on board the steamer., Prof. Emmons found his wife in the main saloon of the steamer. She did not look displeased to see him, neither was she glad. The Cus- tom-house officers were close at hand. Everything went smoothly until the pro- fessor asked his wife to go ashore with him. Then she looked squarely at him and said excitedly: I know your game. You want me to go ashore so that you can lock me up again, don’t you? Well, I’ll be — if Tu go.’’ Prof. Emmons did his best to quiet her, and in a few minutes she talked calmly enough, but no amount of persuasion would induce her to land. As he had no legal means of forcing her off the ship he was at last obliged to go ashore with only the insanity experts for company. They drove away together in a carriage. Mrs. Em- mons’ last words to her husband were that she would stay aboard the ship until she was forced to quit it. The Lydian Monarch lay at anchor in the Hudson all night. She will not come up to the pier until this afternoon. Prof. Emmons will not find his wife there, though, if he returns to look for her. Shortly after sunset she sent a messenger to Jersey City to hire a carriage for her. When he brought back word that it was in waiting she made ready to go. There was no difficulty about ber bageage, for there was little of it. First Officer Hill ordered away one of the ship’s small boats, and down it splashed into the river. Four sailors got into it and it was brought around on the weather side of the great black hull. The tide was running swiftly in the middle of the flood anda stiff breeze tore the water into lively waves. First Officer Hill had a gang lad- der lowered and lent a hand to Mrs. Em- mons as she SWUNG HERSELF OVER THE SHIP’S SIDE. She is anything but a timid womangand the sailors say she can chmb as well as any ofthem. She had climbed into the small boat before anyone could help her. Then down came Officer Hill, who was to be her escort ashore. The four sailors gave way with awill, and presently the stubby 3 boat was at foot — a green and slippery gangway of the Mon- arch Line’s pier. The fair passenger scrambied up with but little aid from her escort, and as pny! asany sailor. First Officer Hill led her through the dingy pier to the carriage in waiting. Then cameSailor Rowe, a great favorite of Mrs. Emmons, carrying her luggage. Mra, Emmons wore a jaunty hat with red velvet and a long black cloth wrap, edged with dark astrakhan fur. All the party gotinto the carriage and drove off together. They took the 6:30 boat for Twenty-third street and it was understood that Mrs. Emmons stopped at one of the uptown hotels in this city. She was not registered at any of them last evening. Mrs. Emmons was uite alone; having run away from her riend, Mme. Di Cormis of Washington, when she suddenly left England December 16. She has not a maid with her even. Mrs. Emmons is staying with friends in town. Mrs. Emmons brought a short but eventful stay in Lon- don to a close by rushing off to the Lydian Monarch which was on the point of sail- ing. and hiring a deck cabin which, by the way, was not far removed from the care- ful eye of Commander Haggett. The weather was fair but cold all the way over. Twelve hours from England two small and 8 stow-aways were routed from the hold by men looking after the cargo. They were Manchester boys, 12 and 14 years old, and full of a wild de- sire to see life in America. Mrs. Em- mons took a great fancy to them. One particularly became a favorite of hers, and she said if he was smart about horses she would set him up in a fair way with money. Soon she found that the lads could sing. Then she had them brought to her cabin and gave them a few sixpences apiece to make them sing. The second day out a small band of Salvation Army people came on deck. The noise they made bothered Mrs. Emmons greatly. So she got the Manchester boys to her cabin again and promised them a Christ- mas box of 5 shillings each if they would OUT-SING THE SALVATIONISTS. She gave each of the lads a cloth jacket of hers. One was green and the other gray. Equipped thus, the boys pranced out and set up a fine howling near the Salvation Army songsters. ere was much laughter among the passengers and Mrs. Emmons was greatly pleased with the performance. There was nothing else rticularly noticeable in her conduct on @ way over. Theship’s surgeon was her escort on many a stroll on deck in all sorts of wind and weather Many atime she’d arsk me how I was the cold at 10 o’clock at night, said a broad-shouldered sailor. “She’d come along, may be alone, and may be with the dootor or Officer Mills an’ talked to me or whatever man was on watch in the for’ard lookout. She'd even come down in the fo’castle a few times and arsk themen to talk about sea life, but they was afeared like, she bein’ such a fine lady. She was a and often the deck.“ The L puffed at them along Monarch’s ers tell stories about "eer ehavior Miss “ee a maiden lad her niece an » Emmons ones woes of sea- ess had full possession of all three of “She nursed us as kindly and gen- if she were our own kin,” said “and I never saw an all unladylike. good strong smoker of | be . * * 1 r eee a8 N x “5 Pie J 4 e 4 5 888 7 1 it (eae ‘ ‘ iva 1 . .

THE DISCONTENT AMONG THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR SPREADING. Protest Against the Alleged legal Action of the Richmond Convention——Extension of the Terms of Officers and Increase of Sal- aries Cause the Trouble—A New District to Be Formed in New York-—Powderly and the Socialists. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. New Tonk, December 29.—There is now no doubt that a demand will soon be made on General Master Workman Powderly of the Knights of Labor to call a meeting of the General Assembly, and it will be signed by district assemblies in Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Texas, Colorado, Michi- gan, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. The cause of the call is based on the charge of the illegality of the extension of the terms of office of the General Master Workman and other members of the Executive Board, the division of tne office of secretary- treasurer, the increase of salaries of officers, the increase in the number of the board, and several other matters connected ‘with the recent convention at Richmond, and which a large number of members of the order consider illegal. Wo have a General Master Workman,’’ yesterday said a knight, who was a dele- gate to the last General Assembly, ‘‘but not by virtue of his election in Richmond. He is holding over from his last term of office. Itis doubtful, however, if he will call the extra session or not. No. 49 is against it and it seems to me that what it does not want does not happen. The majority 6f the delegates to Richmond went there instructed to vote against the extension of the tenure of office and the increase of salary. They thought ‘they had defeated both, and went home the Saturday night before the final adjournment. The following Monday the matter was reconsidered and both time and salaries were increased, It was one of the most barefaced deals ever perpetrated in a labor organization. The minority were unable to prevent it. Whether the special session can rectify the evil remains to be seen. I am afraid of this session, for on it will hinge the fate ofthe order. Atthe worst, the order can only dissolve, but that will not be the last of the labor movement. Some of the trade districts will unite with the new Federation of Trades, and there may grow up two organizations instead of the Knights of Labor.“ INDEPENDENT ACTION. A member of the new Montauk District, or the Long Island Knights,” said: We have proof that the suspended assembles in New York will take independent action to form a new district in that city. We consider ourselves even outside of the or- der. Our charter has not been granted, nor have we had any reply to our oom- munication ag our ultimatum. Weare going forward in the work ot or- ganization and will issue our own char - ’ 2 — — — below as showing what Mr. Powderly thinks of the Socialists in New York who belong to the order and are prominent leaders in District 49 to-day: The curse of the Knights of Labor has come from*the promptness with which ac- knowledged leaders of the socialistic ele- ment have put themselves forward at meetings, and, while speaking, plainly hinted atthe muskets and gatling gun as the remedy for labor griey- ances. Many of the men who advocate these principles (of Socialism) do not understand them, nor do they care to understand them. They set forth the idea and convey the impression that the only weapons by which labor can hope to secure the desired reforms are the knife and bludgeon. Men may entertain such ideas as they pleuase—they may advocate them if they please, but they should not seek, under the cloak of the Knights of Labor, to promulgate such doctrines and make the order responsible for them. I claim the right to differ as tothe means best calculated to bring about the reform of them, and am willing to respect the opinions of others, but un- til the Knights of Labor adopt the shot- ＋ as their chief weapon I will vigorous- object to allowing advocates to step to the front at all meetings gotten up in the interests of labor. They must not be per- mitted to advocate blood and fire, and yet prociaim themselves to be the mouth pieces of the labor cause.“ REMOVING ERRONEOUS IMPRESSIONS. “The conduct and language of these men have caused the clergymen to regard us with an eye of suspicion and it will re- quire strenuous efforts on our part to re- move erroneous impressions concernin us. Itis my firm and honest belief tha as vast as is this country, as broad and extensive as is its territory, there is not room enough within its borders for the exercise of a single rifle. have no respect for the man or men who will flaunt their accursed red flag and advocate the use ofthe dirk and bullet, for 364 days ‘in the 3 and who on the 305th day deliberately walk up to the polls and vote for the continuance of the sys- tem which they denounce. I am sorry that the order ever found a foothold in New York, for no good has ever come from large cities, which are prolific of nt and crime. There are man nights in your city (New York). f TLrequire any determined action, give methe man who reads and thinks, in- stead of the man that drinks. There are more of the latter in a * city than the former. However, the Knights of Labor will live on, their principles will spread and eventually triumph, “Bah! on the creatures who stand uplas champions of labor in the presence of thousands of unthinking menand advo- cate the knife and bullet!-Bah on the men who flaunt the red flag!

East St. Louis, reported in the Post-DispaTcH last evening, proved fatal to three work- men. At the time the roof gave way, precipitating the new water-tank into the freezing-room, four workmen were em- ployed theré. John Kieffner, aged 23 years, and single, fell with the crash and was crushed to death. Clem. Beve- lot, J. J. Powell, James Turner and John Burke were caught in the de- bris, and saturated with the ammonia solution, several hundred gallons of which oured from the crushed tank in the reezing room. A pew of employes of the brewery hurried to the assistance of the unfortunate workmen. Kieffner was found dead having probably been killed in the fall. Powell and Turner were burned by the fiuid. Turner was taken out of the ruins in an unconscious condi- tion, and died at 9 o’clock last night of hemorrhage of the lungs caused by inhaling the ammonia.
