The report of the United States super- visors first directed the attention of the Federal officials to the irregularities at the polls, each of which is a thread lead- ing back to the most gigantic injustices in the previous conduct of election arrange- ments. Attention was directed to these individual cases in the columns of the Post-DispatconH. The offenders and their friends became active and this activity resulted in the con- troversy between United States Attor- ney Bliss and his probable successor. The misrepresentations made to effect a change in District Attorneys were first presented to the public in these columns. A number of the ‘‘strikers’’ had been in- dicted, and the full intent of this move was soon understood. These must be protected at all hazards or they might in- volve others in better position but no less corrupt. As a result of these presentations of facts THE CITIZENS’ COMMITTEE ORGANIZED and secured the appointment of special counsel to te the election frauds— a good cause, in which the Posr-Disraren enlists.

To two of these attention is directed—the registration and the revision of list of voters in which 2,100 VOTERS WERE LITERALLY TRICK- ED AND CHEATED OUT OF THEIR RIGHTTO VOTE CTION DAY. How this was done Uy set forth be- low. in the registr@tion of votes the most reprehensible partisan unfairness was shown, forgery Was committed, and the letter and spirit of the law were violated. By a trick nearly 3,000 voters were disfranchised in the various wards. The sessions of the Boards of Revision and Review furnish good leads to be followed by the Grand-juries both Federal and State. The plain facts as they appear give most con- vincing evidence of fraud and corruption. For the better understanding of the facts which will be presented, the election laws and powers transmitted thereby are ex- plained here, as well as the circumstances which led to the passage of this remarka- ble piece of legislation. THE LAW. The law which extended the term of office of the Recorder of Voters appointed by Gov. Crittenden was passed to bear specially on municipal politics. It con- tinued the incumbent, whose term expired in 1883, till the Ist inst., and largely added to his powers. Besides the previous con- trol which he had of the registration lists, it gave to him the appointment of deputy recorders or _ registrars of voters. It also gave to bim the selection of the polls for the 244 pre- cincts at all general elections, for each of which $ is paid, and which was formerly the function of the City Marshal. It em- powered him to appoint deputy super- visors for the city, which was formerly one of the functions of the Mayor, and made the Recorder chairman of that body, a position which was formerly filled by the Mayor. It gave to him the custody of the poll-books,as well as the poll-boxes and their contents, and the rejected ballots, which were formerly reposed in the custo- dy of the City Register. It further aug- mented his powers by placing in his hands the appointment of all the clerks and judges of election, an important power which previously rested with the Mayor. It furthermore curtailed the powers of the judges of election in passing upon the qualifications of voters and relegated it to the Recorder of Voters and the Board of Revisors. In this way the functions and powers of the Mayor, City Register, City Marshal and judges and clerks as pertaining to the conduct of elections were concentrated in ene officer, who re- ceiyes his appointment from the Governor of the State, but whois paid by the city. These laws have been printed in a pamph- let, which is well worthy of the perusal of all citizens. IN EXPLANATION OF THIS REMARKABLE PIECE OF LEGISLATION it should be explained thatthe powers thus collected and ed upon s Dem- ocratic Recorder were taken from a Re- publican Mayor, a Republican City Register and a Republican City Marshal. A provision of that law requires that the Recorder of Voters shall cep bis office open for the registration of voters up to within twenty days from any gen- eral election; that such registration shall cease entirely by himself, but that he shall appoint a-Board of Revision, consist- ing of twenty-eight men, who shall sit, with the Recorder as Chairman,for a period of ten days, for the purpose of revising his previous work, and striking from the reg- istration lists such names as they know are not entitled to registration, and shall sit thereafter as a Board of Review, for a period of two days, for the purpose of reinstating such names as might be erroneously stricken off. or who had in any manner been refused registration while entitled thereto. From this statement, prepared to show the machinery of elections,the powers and duties will be understood. To show how these powers were exercised and these duties filled isa work which the Post- Dispatcu undertakes for the enlighten- ment of honest citizens, and the guidance of the Grand-jury. Partisan unfairness is evident on every side while behind this MONSTROUS CORRUPTION AND CRIMINAL MISCONDUCT AWAITS DISCOVERY. Previous to the election on the 2d of last November, deputy recorders, many of them even of unsavory reputations and nearly all of them tried Democratic ward- workers, were appointed throughout the city and stationed at specified places to receive the registration of those who were qualified and who offered themselves. In the selection of these registration places further unfairness was shown and in near- ly every instance the place selected was in a locality occupied by the friends of the deputy registrars. IN THE TENTH WARD, a conceded Republican Ward which ex- tends east to Twelfth street, the registrar was stationed at Joe Blong’s saloon on Jefferson avenue, a Democratic “corner.” If the Grand-jurors will call and examine these deputy registrars, who will be more fully introduced later, it will be found that in Democratic wards they remained a greater number of days and a greater number of hours each day than in Repub- lican districts. Each of these deputy registrars was furnished with two registration books, one of which was left at the main office to be copied, while the other was in use in the wards. These books were called for by the Federal Grand-jury and par- tially examined. They disclose the fact that hundreds of forgeries were com- mitted. The names of voters were regis- tered, without causing the voters to sub- scribe their own signatures, as required by law. When questioned concerning this by the United States Grand-jury, swore that when bis attention registered, and who never took the voters, — — Tenth Ward, was making these illegal entries, no alterations were made. The ordinary method of sending postal-cards to the parties thus registered was not fol- lowed in this instance to rectify the errors(?). Mr. Wiesehahn, the expert who has made an examination of the books, HAS DISCOVERED STUDIED FORGERIES in some instances. Names of persons who never appeared to be necessary oaths as to qualifications as were placed on the books, returned to the City Hall, and these THE ENTIRE LIST WERE STRICKEN OFF quorum and no business was done. On Friday, October 22, he tendered no list. BUT ON SATURDAY, THE 23D, THE LAST DAY OF THE SESSION, HE HANDED IN THE ENORMOUS LIST OF 1,135 NAMES, WHICH WERE STRICKEN OFF THEN AND THERE. IN THE TENTH WARD A TOTAL OF 1,481 NAMES, WHEREOF, IN THE FIRST NINE DAYS OF THE SESSION OF THE BOARD OF REVISION, THE EN- TIRE NUMBER STRICKEN OFF AGGRE- GATED ONLY 346 NAMES, SO THAT OVER THREE-FOURTHS OF THE NAMES ON ON THE LAST DAY, GRAND-JURY SHOULD TAKE ‘THE INVESTIGATION, within the Ninth Congressional District, parts having a smaller voting population can be judged. for the Board of Revision were selected. The politics of the revisors and the re- books on election day were as follows: No. of Voters Wards. on Books. First Ward 2,869. Democrat Second Ward... — -1,546.... Democrat Third Ward... I, 999.

Democrat Twenty-sixth Ward......... 716....Republican Twenty-seventh Ward. 991 ...Republican From this it will be seen that DEMO- CRATS WERE APPOINTED IN THE MOST POPULOUS WARDS and Republic- ans in the more sparsely settled wards and the“ cabbage-wards.“ The manner in which the above results were attained by the Board of Revision and Review is well worth the investigation of the Federal and State Grand-juries. THE BOARD OF REVISION first met on October 13, and organized. The publication of this meeting, which should have been made on the day follow- ing, Thursday, October 14, as specifically prescribed by the law, was not made until October 15. They met again on Friday, the 15th, and their work was published on Saturday, October 16. They met again on the 16th and the work done was published on Monday, October 18. The results of the meeting of the 18th were regularly published on the 19th. The proceedings of the meeting of the 20th were published on the 2ist. On the Alst the board met no business was transacted. They met small portion of the work done on that day was published on the 23d, as demanded by law. The large proportion of the work done on the 22d was not published until Monday, October 25. Another meeting was held on the 23d, the proceedings of which were also published on the 25th inst. THE LAW requires the work of the Board of Revi- sors to be made on the day following the one on which they had stricken the names from the registration lists. That this was not done can be established by the pro- ceedings of the board and the publica- tions. This failure becomes especially significant when it is known that at the meeting of October 22, a vast number of names were stricken from the lists and the voters so disfranchised had no notice whatever, until the 25th of October. Witnesses who attended the session of the Board of Revisors will testify that when lists of names were handed in, no inquiry or investigation, as is contem- plated by law, was made, but the names were at once stricken from the books. In the conduct of the Revisors a Grand-jury will find more evidence of dishonest in- tentions. THE SECOND WARD. The members of the Board of Revision for the Second Ward handed in no names to be stricken from the lists on October 13; he presented no names on the 14th. On the 15th he presented thirty-two names which were then and there stricken off without question. At the session of the 16th he handed in no names; none at the session of Monday, the 18th. He handed handed in a list of eighty-five names on Tuesday, October 19. On Wednes- day, October 20, he handed in no names. On Thursday, October A, he handed in no names; none on Friday, October 22; BUT ON SATURDAY. OOTOBER 23, THE LAST MEETING OF THE BOARD OF REVISION, HE HANDED IN 486 NAMES TO BE STRICKEN OFF. THESE WERE STRICKEN OFF THEN AND THERE WITHOUT FURTHER IN- VESTIGATION. IN ALL 63 NAMES WERE STRICKEN OFF IN THE SEC- OND WARD. IN THE FIRST NINE DAYS OF THE SESSION ONLY 117 NAMES WERE STRICKEN OFF, WHILE ON THE VERY LAST DAY 486 NAMES, COMPRISING OVER FOUR- FIFTHS OF THE ENTIRE LIST OF DIS- FRANCHISED, WERE STRICKEN OFF. THE TENTH WARD, The record of the Board of Revision shows that the member for the Tenth Ward tendered no list on October 18; no list October 14; that he tendered a list of 171 names to be stricken off October 15, and that these names were stricken off without further investigation. At the ~of | Hagan, the sDeputyRecorer fur names so registered were permitted to stand on the registration lists, and were voted upon at the election on November 2. THESE FORGERIES CAN ONLY BE PUNISHED UNDER THE STATE LAW, AND FOR THIS REASON THE STATE UP From the con- duct of the registration and election in the central part of the city, comprised the administration of the affairs in other In this district which is composed of the First, Second, Third, Tenth, Thirteenth, Fifteenth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Nineteenth, Twenty-sixthand Twenty-seventh Wards eleven appointees sults of their work as shown by thie poll again, but there being no quorum present. again on Friday, October 22, but only a | AS EXPLAINED ABOVE the law requires the Board of Revisors, having sat as a Board of Revisors for the purpose of striking off names from the registration lists for ten days, shall there- after sitasa Board of Review for rein- statements. This was done by the Board which sat Monday, October 25, and Tues- day, October 26, as a Board of Review. The purpose of this law was defeated as in the instances cited. THE REVISORS OF THE SECOND AND TENTH WARDS DID NOT APPEAR TO FORM A QUORUM ON THURSDAY, OCTOBER 21, NOR DID THEY APPEAR ON THE FOLLOW- ING DAY TO SHOW THE RESULTS OF THURSDAY’S WORK, BUT WAITED UNTIL THE LAST DAY TO HAND IN LISTS AGGREGATING 1,621 VOTES, WHICH THEY KNEW COULD NOT BE PUBLISHED UNTIL 4P. M., MONDAY, OCTOBER 25, S0 THAT THE DISFRAN- CHISED VOTERS WERE GIVEN ONLY ONE DAY IN WHICH TO SECURE RE- INSTATEMENT. . IN THIS CONNECTION there are other matters no less important. After the organizing session held October 13 the subsequent sessions, pursuant to a resolution then passed, were held at 4 p. m., and an examination of witnesses or the minutes of the board will show that in point of time these sessions were ex- ceedingly short. In order to show by comparison the sig- nificance of the fine work done inthe Second and Tenth Wards the last reports of the other revisors in the territory be- tween Wash street and Chouteau and Rus- sell avenues are given as made Octo- ber 23: x ccc aud Ward..cccce cocesscccesesn eee ee Thirteenth Ward. — Fifteenth Ward — .

On the following day the assistant Sec- retary of the Republicaa Committee sent in alist of twenty-one names from the Second Ward for investigation and rein- statement. They had been stricken off on the 23d and only published at 4 p. m. on the 25th. Mr. Beasley, member of the Board of Review, tendered the list to the board. The member from the Second Ward entered strenuous objections to any consideration of the names. That day eight of the twenty-one names were reinstated, wit- nesses appeared to give sworn testimony in regard to the others. Onthis testimony two more were reinstated. A hearing on the rights of the remaining eleven was re- fused, and the voters, allof whom were qualified, were kept off the lists by a partisan vote of twelve to eleven. The names of Max Trube, 821 Morgan street, and Philip Laufer, 802 North Ninth street, were reinstated at that meeting but did not appear on the poll-books on election day. At the same session Revisor Beasley of the Fifteenth Ward was handed a list of twenty-five names which had been wrongfully scratched off in the Tenth Ward. He gave the list to Chair- man Hoblitzelle who on receiving this list said he would reinstate the names, and according to the revisors’ statements actually did so without submitting the lists tothe scrutiny,investigation or action of the Board of Review who were then and later in session. These names were published in the reinstated lists as if rein- stated by the Board of Review. The names appeared thereafter on the poll- books and several of them were voted. This is only part of the scheme of the corrupt and well-organized ‘‘ring’’ which the Post-DispaTcH is prepared to lay bare. VETERANS.

By Telegraph to the Post-Dispratcn. NEw YoOrE, January 14.—The Paris cor- respondent of the Times, under date of December 28, writes as follows: Russia's policy has again met one of those sudden deviations which have become the salient points of the reign of Alexander II. At Berlin, as at St. Petersburg, the situation is considered more than ever threatening since the answer of the Journal de St. Petersbourg to the Morning Post’s article, and Austria, in view of the eventuality of a conflict with her neighbor, has begun not only to arm, but to prepare quarter- master and commissary stores for the approaching campaign, of which the month of March seems to be fixed as the initial date. But the factors, or rather the actors of the coming drama have, apparently, modified their roles, and the collision—the first collision—will be between Austria and Russia, only; Germany only intends to take part in it later, should circumstances render its non-localization expedi- ent. A fortnight or three weeks ago, everything pointed to the conclusion of an arrangement, if not an absolute al- liance with France, but the fall of the De Freycinet cabinet furnishing proof, if ad- ditional proof were wanted, of the in- stability of any French Adminis- tration by whomsoever it may be directed, the Czar has turned naturally to a power on which he can rely and has agreed not to interfere in any future Franco-German quarrel, provided carte blanche be given him in his designs upon Bulgaria. It is to theinterest of Russia to have astrong backer and it is contestable that,at this time of writing. strength is with Germany. Russia has not abandoned her schemes for the pos- session of Constantinople. She began the dismemberment of Turkey in 1878 and it is tothe agglomeration of the petty inde- pendent Danubian States that were cre- ated under the suzerainty of her Em- peror, that all her efforts now tend. The Bulgarian crisis was produced just at the proper moment to furnish a pretext, which would be removed were the election of a Bulgarian sovereign to be made pacifically, and rest assured that whether proposed by the Bulgarians themselves, by England or by Austria, Russia will oppose her veto to every can- didacy, even tothe extent of making the election of a persona non grata A CA8US BELLI. | I may add that even the candidates pre- sented by Russia show very little willing- ness to accept the perilous honors. Prince Peter of Oldenburg declines respectfully but firmly, and the Prince of Mingrelia declares that, unless peremptorily so or- dered by his sovereign, he will not take up his residence at Sofla. Yet none the less does Russia persist in her policy. The officious Russian newspapers never cease their attacks upon the Bulgarian regency, and the organ of M. de Giers, the St. Pe- tersburg Journal, which may be con- sidered to be the official exponent of Imperial views, has published on its first page a curious recital, signed by a Bulgarian refugee, one Benideriff, who boasts openly of the active part taken by him in the last coup d'etat at Sofia. Capt. Benideriff was ar- rested for high treason, but with his ac- complices was released through the influ- ence of Gen. Kaulbars, and exiled to Russia, where he airs his views invect- ively, concerning his compatriots, in gen- eral, Prince Alexander, the Regents and the National Assembly in particular. It is an extraordinary sign of the times that so prudent and correct a diplomatist as M. de Giers has always, in other circum- stances, proved himself, should have sanctioned this gross attack of a rebellious officer upon his late sovereign, and the question is asked, without obtaining any satisfactory reply, cui bono? The at- tention of the Bulgarian population thwarted the project ascribed to Russia by the British press, of exciting civil war in the Balkans. Can the act be the proclama- European the interest of humanity? I have not space sufficient to quote the factum of this conspirator, but a

Rose, keeper of the Richmond (Va.) reservoir, discovered the body ofadead woman in the water of the reservoir. One leg and the flounce of a dress were all that could be seen above the surface. The ground in the neighborhood had been trampled on and a piece of shoestring and a red glove lay close by what had evidently been the scene ofatragedy. The Coroner was notified, and he removed the body. It was found to be thatof a woman, probably 23 years of age, dressed in a jersey waist and black alpaca skirt. There was a bruise on the A forehead, and the lower lip was swol- len. There was no mark of identifica- tion on the body or its clothing. The body was removed to the Morgue, where it was iden- tified three days af- ter by Miss Ella Dunstan as the body of Fanny Lillian Madison. The Cor- Loner had supposed ita case of suicide at first, but on the day the body was identified LillyMad- ison’s clothing was found floating in the river. Directly afterward the pro- rietor of the American Hotel told the Joroner that the deceased had registered at his hotel as F. L. Merton, and had left suddenly Friday, the day before the find- ing of the body, without paying her board. A note sent out by her had been returned un- delivered. The scraps of this note were taken from the waste-basket, and when pieced together it was found to have been ad- dressed to T. J. Cluverius and the contents were the single sentence: ‘‘I will be there as soon as possible, so do wait for me. On this Cluverius was arrested. He was found at the residence ofan aunt with whom he lived in King and Queen County. He took his arrest very calmly saying merely that he had been in Richmond, but that he had not seen Lilly Madison while there. THE DEAD GIRL’S STORY, Slowly the story ofthe dead girl’s life was worked up by the representatives of the State. Lilly Madison was the daughter ofa farmer in King and Queen County and was a cousin of Thomas J. Cluverius. The girl, against her father’s wishes, frequently visited Mrs. Tunstall, the aunt with whom Cluverius lived. The lack of poner between father and daughter engendered by these acts re- sulted in her having home when she was 21 to become governess in the fam- ily of Mrs. Dickinson jn Bath County. Just before her departure to accept this position she was inthe habit of meeting Clu- verius at the house ef an uncle John Walker. On the 10th of July Ciuverius and Lilly Madison both stopped at the house of John Walker. Cluverius occupied a bed in Walker's room, but he made some excuse to — absent from the room a portion of the night. n October Miss Madison took her place in the household of Mrs. Dickinson. During her stay she made many friends. On January 5 Miss Madison yisited Richmond remaining there for two days. She remained during this time atthe Exchange Hotel where she regis- tered as Miss F. L. Merton, Roanoke City. When she returned to Bath she sald to Mrs. Dickinson, ‘‘Cousin Tommie Cluverius met me in Richmond and brought me back. She cousin. On March 10 she went to Mrs. Dickinson witha letter purporting to be written by Laura M. Curtis, a former school-mate and dated Richmond, March 9. In it the writer said that her mother and aunt were both very sick and that her father de- sired Lilly Madison to accompany ‘‘Aunt Mary’’ to Old Point Comfort where she was going for her health. Mrs. Dickinson read the note and decided to let Lilly Madison go. Accordingly the girl took the train on the She had said to Mrs. Dickinson ‘‘Cousin Tommie wrote me he would meet me in Richmond.“ IN RICHMOND. : On the train she told the conductor she was going to visit a sick friend and that she would her At the regist- can Hotel. hotel she signed to room 21. At Il o’clock Friday morning, March 13, a colored boy brought a note ad: dressed to the lady in No. 21. An an- swer was given to the boy, who re- turned tothe hotel 7 with it later, saying he was unabie to find the person to whom it was ad- dressed. This was the note which the hotel- keeper tore Fanny L. Madison. uo but afterward produced. About 2 o’clock in the day she met the por- ter and asked bim it he had received the note. He replied, ‘‘Yes,’’ and she said the gentile. man had told her he did not receiveit. The night watchman atthe American Hotel iden- tiles Cluverius as the man who came in about 8:30 o'clock the night of the murder and asked the clerk to send his card to No. 21, The clerk gave the night watchman the card. He directed the young man tothe parlor and went to 21. Noone was in. As he was return- ing he met the young lady and an old gentie- man coming up the steps at the ladies’ en- trance. They walked into the parlor, the night watchman rr behind them. The old gentieman asked if the young lady could getaroom. All tnreé then passed ont. As the young man went by hesaid: ‘‘I don’t think that is the ladyl want to see. The young lady I want to see weut to school with my sister.’ THE WATCHMAN to her room and the then took the young lad The watoh.- young man went down the steps. man remarked to the lady: „When this young man came in he wanted to see you, and now he says be didn’t want te see you, buthe wanted tosee the lady who went to school with his sister.’’ The lady then asked him to see it the young man was still in the hotel. The watchmaa went ag to inquire. The young man entered the office about fifteen minutes later and seemed to be very restiess. The watchman said to him: This young lady wants to see you; she * were to come after her this moru- he other replied: ‘‘Where is the young lady? Show me to the parlor, This the watchman did, and then carried the lady to the parlor, and left them there. This was about twenty minutes to 9. About three minutes after 9 o’clock, accord- ing to the testimony of a boy, Cluverius and a lady got on astreet car and rode out to Res- ervoir street. Dr. Stratton testified that at 9:15 1 bli verius and for $20, 8 Now, in Bo to buy of us. them move quickly at fashioned watch-key was found. In the raveyard adjoining the reservoir a glove and Plus veil were found and in the dead-house a black straw hat. THE LINKS in the chain of evidencejon which Thos. J. Clu- verius was convicted bound the prisoner wo closely toleave any doubt of his guilt. The theory on which his conviction was brought about was that he had seduced his cousin un- der promise of marriage and that being en- gaged to marry Miss Bray, an heiress of some social prominence, he desired to get Lilly Madison out of the way. In the truuk left by Lilly Madison at Mrs. Dickinson’s were found a piece of obscene peas? in Cluverius' handwriting and a letter in which occurred the passage: ‘‘When are you and that fellow going to be married? You know you told me it would be this winter. I think it would be the best thing for you; so do this winter.“ The seduction is supposed to have taken piace at Jno. Walker’s house, July 10. Cluverius was absent from his room several hours on that night and onthe day following Lilly Madison’s father noticed and commented on the fact that Cluverius avoided him. At the time of Lilly Madison’s first visit to Richmond, according to the chambermaid’s testimony, Cluverius called twice. After the second visit the chambermaid found Miss Madison’s room empty, and on the next morning she noticed that the bed bad not been occupied the previous night. Two courtesans testified thaton the morning of March 13, Ciuverius, whom they knew well, entered a house of ill-fame accompanied by a woman who wore a blue jacket and a red shawl, They entered a back room. ONE OF THE COURTESANS testitied that the woman with Cluverius had entered the same house one nightin January with a man the witness did know—Dbut she did not know Cluverius at that time. The register of the Davis House shows that Cluverius arrived there March 2. Several wit- nesses testified that they saw him and Lilly Madison together on the next day,aithough he swore he had not seen her during his visit to Richmond, The supposition is that they started out to visit the Dunstans. They were known to Miss Madison, but she had never visited them. Miss Madison was enciente. @luverius may have suggested that he knew of a lying-in house beyond the reservoir. Within the grounds they may have quarreled, and he may have struck her. There were scratches on his hand the day after the murder. The shaw! may have beer thrown across the Dun- stans’ fence to convey the impression that the girl had committed suicide. There is no doubt whatever that Cluverius wasahypocrite. He was superintendent ofa Sunday-schooland wasat the same time fa- miliar with houses of ill-fame in Richmond. One piece of evidence about which there was some doubt was that of the jeweler, who was asked to identify the watch-key found in the reservoir, He testified that he thought it had belonged toCluverius. He offered to testify absolutely if he were allowed to take it apart. This the Court refused to allow. Aft- erward, on an appeal to the Governor for par- Gon the jeweler was called in, and, after tak- ing apart the key, testified positively that he had once mended it at the request oF Clu- verius. THE TRIAL was long and exciting. Cluverius was finally convicted on the circumstantial evidence pre- sented. Heappeaied, and the case was taken into the higher courts. May 6, 1886, the Su- preme Court of Virginia refused to set aside the decision of the lower court. After that in- fluence was brought to bear upon the Gov- ernor to obtain a pardon, and the execution was several times postponed. It was finally fixed for Friday, January 14, 1887.

Asa nation we are not great skaters. Some good performers there are; yet men who skate—taking the term to mean something more than merely floundering along inthe most ungraceful attitudes— are comparatively few in number. As the newspapers tell us, crowds of peeple flock to the nearest pond long before the ice bears. To the masses, the existence of an acre or two of ice means the existence of available play-grounds, and, upon the principle of anything fora change, great numbers resort to every frozen bubble. And what do they do when they get there? Sliders are numerous; more than half the skaters find it necessary to brandish a stick asa means of reta * their bal - ance; a man doing outside o is almost sure ofa gallery, while anyth beyond this raises the skater to the position of an expert. Yet, skatingin England has, in point of proficiency, made rapid strides within the last fifty years; and a few—but very few—of our best skaters can hold Lore 3 own with the representatives of any on.

HOT “TOMALO.” A Couple of Boys Who Sold Lunch and Pock- eted the Proceeds. Recently the sale of the Mexican lunch known as ‘‘tomalo’’ has been inaugurated in the city, and it is expected that hot tomalo’’ will soon be as common a cry at nights as hot ‘*wienerwurst’’ now is. Among the intro- ducers of the lunch is one Frank G. Bowers of 1407 North Sixth street, who has been hiring men to carry about cans of the food and sell it on the streets at night. Among others employed by him were two boys, Henry Fields and Frank Miller, who took outthe cans and lunch, sold out and failed to return the money to him. This morning he had them before + 2+ Noonan on charges of stealing by bailee $7.50 worth of goodsfrom him. They pleaded — and got thirty days each in the Work- ouse. AFTER THIRTY YEARS. Frederick D. Shaffer, the Beot and Shee Man, Fails Te-Day. An assignment for the benefit of creditors was filed to-day by Frederick D. Shaffer, boot and shoe dealer, 710 North Fourth street. Chas. A. Davis is the assignee. The assets are valued at $16,000, — Shaffer, who was seen at his place of usiness shortly after the fling of the above mentioned assignment, said that his liabilities were bet ween ,000 and $25,000. Most of the creditors are in Boston. Mr. Shaffer has been in business and at his present stand for the past thirty years. His trade was in the city and country. During the last five years, however, the city trade has fallen off and the business has been princi- allyashipping one. The failure is attributed the depressions in e during the last four ears, and to the consequent failures amon is country customers. The assets, estimate at $16,000, consist of stock and outstanding ac- counts in about equal parts. New York Wabash Offices Abolished.

Sixty-Three Acres Devoted to Handsome ‘Residences — Restrictions Imposed on Purchasers of Property—Sisty Thousand Dollars in Streets and Sewers to be Given the City—An Arcade for Shops to Be Erected. out by Delos R. Haynes as the representative of Seelah Chamberlain of Cleveland, O. Mr. Ohamberilain could be best introduced as an uncle of the celebrated Miss Chamberlain, who was Known in London for several seasons as che American beauty.“ He is several times a millionaire, his fortune being gained in suecessful business operations. He is a capitalist now solely, though at one time he was connected with railroads, Some ten or twelve years ago he bought a portion of the estate of William J. Gay, and within two years realizing the potential value of the property purchased the remainder of the estate acres. This property lies north of the Narrow Gauge Rallroad, which runs within 500 feet of Maple avenue, thesouthern boundary of the property. The northern boundary is for part ot its length midway between what will be known as Chamberlain avenue and the present Barkmer avenue, and the remainder of this boundary is Page avenue. Union avenue is the eastern nificent, but after a course of innocuous desuctude not quite so impressive. Under the direction of Mr. Haynes, Julius Pitzman, the engineer, has prepared plans for making a residence park of this n Streets have been laid out sixty feet wide, curving grace- fully like the roads in a park. The main thor- oughfare will be called CHAMBERLAIN /VENUB intersecting the park on a line nearly east and west over half the park’s length, then deviat- ing to the north, terminating near Clara ave- nue. The streets will be graded and covered with gravel, and when they are completed will be dedicated to the city. The Board of Public Improvements bas infOrmally approved the plat, which will be filed in the Recorder’s office when the work is finished that is now underway as Chamberlain Fark. The improvements contemplated consist in the laying of stone pavements} six feet wide Trees will be planted, and other beautifying work will be done to make the park a hand- some place for residences. The streets when dedicated will be open to the public without restrictions. No shops will be allowed in the ark, and all the deeds given urchasers will have a number of con- ditions attached. These are as follows: Neither the purchaser, nor any one claimin by, through or under him, prior to the las day of December, 1920, sball construct on the —— purchased any dwelling-house less an two stories in height, or more than one such dwelling on each 50 feet front of the lot; the value of each dweiling erected must not be less than $4,000 cash and it must not be located nearer than thirty feet from the street on which it fronts; stables, sheds or outhouses must not be nearer than 100 feet to any public driveway; no nuisance, livery stable or manufacturing establishment may be builtor maintained on the premises nor ANY GROCERY STORE, dar- room nor business plaeo for the bargain and sale ofany kind of merchandise. In order to provide the residents for facilities for purchasing supplies, Mr. Chamberlain proposes to erect what will be know as the Chamberlain Hall Arcade. This building will be put up on a site to be selected in the park. The upper portion will be a hall, useful for church and society meet - ings. On the «ground floor will be apart- ments for grocery, meat shop, green grocer, apothecary, baker and other lines of goods. Possibly there will be added tele- hone and telegraph facilities; some plan of ocal police and salvage corps with Babcock fire extinguishers is dependant somewhat on the rentals received for the use of the bulld- ing. This project, it is thought, will antici- the usual small and incom- started half stocked supported in new It will also, among other desirable ends, make it easier to get and retain hel facilities for their work being better. he structure will beof stene and brick, with, atowerand clock that will be visible to all parts ofthe park. The design of the arcade is somewhatafter the style called generally Queen Anne. Between $15,000 and $20,000 will be spent on the arcade and about $60,000 on the other improvements inthe park. In order to in- sure the stability of the shops to be estab- lished there a circular has been addressed to ALL PERSONS — in the neighborhood asking them to give their promise of patronage on the under- standing that the goods are to be first-class = the prices the same as are charged in the city. The park can be reached from the city by the narrow-guage railroad and cable, which is the most convenient line on the Wabash, pas- sengers taking suburban trains on the latter road at Rosedale station, a few blocks west of the west line of Forest Park. The Wabash has made arate of 4 cents from Rosedale tothe Union Depot, and is now attracting a large number of the residents in that section who had previously patronized the Narrow Gauge. When the Franklin Ave- nue Street Railway Line ts in the cable Mr. Julius Walsh has said he contemplates ex- tending that power to Rinkleville and making the return from Rinkleville to the city over such streets as wili give him the patronage of the northern portion of the neighborhoed about the park. AN IRISH PATRIOT, The New Racket“ Used by Michael Mo- Guire, a Confidence Man. Michael McGuire, a confidence man, was sentenced to nine months in the Work-house by Judge Noonan to-day for stealing $24 from John Connor of Second and Almond streets, MocGuire’s racket is to visit patriotic Irish- men, talk home rule to them in a most fervent manner, cry over the woes and wrongs of Ireland, and final- ly get himself invited to stay all night at a place on account of the lateness of the hour and the long distance he has to travel.

POLITICAL NEWS. Proceedings in the Frank-Glover Contest —The Recorder’s Transfer. While awaiting the arrival of Recorder of Voters Clarence L. Hoblitzelle, Isaac Jackson, colored, living at 716 South Third street, rear, was called to testify in the Frank-Glover con- test court this morning. He swore that he had registered from Chouteau avenue, but on moving to the above number he had his name transferred. His name was stricken from the list as Isaac Jackson, 712 South Third street, rear.’’ He was not allowed to vote.

The Very Curious Case Which Judge Cady Continued This Morning. Samuel J. Tannehill, a young man employed in the lamp manufacturing business, was be- fore Judge Cady this morning onacharge of disturbing the peace. For some time past a young man has been in the habit ot jumping on street cars at Broad - way and Washington avenue and as ladies get on, and handling the ladies in an immodest manner. On the (th inst. he jumped n and off several cars, always man- aging to handle lady passengers in an im- roper manner, as if by accident. As Mrs. ohn Gartenhauser, a comely young matron residing at 1101 South Jefferson avenue, was getting on a Blue Line car, the young man at- tempted his old trick, and was observed at it by Robert Jones of No. 206 North Eighth street, who insisted on his arrest. Tannebill was afterward arrested and the charge preferred against him in the Police Court. he case was up once before, but he got a con- tinuance. This morning the city was not ready for trial, owing tothe absence of Mrs. Gartenhauser and a newsboy named Max Metzer, who stands at Broadway and Wash- ington avenue, two of the principal witnesses in the case. A continuance was taken until the 22d and attachments were asked for the witnesses. City Attorney Dyer claims that the defendant has been out to sec Mrs. Garten- hauser, and has apologized to her and begged her not to appear against him as he is a mar- ried man. r. Dyer also claims that Tanne- hill threatened the newsboy that he would kill him it he appeared against him. Tanne- hill says it isa case of mistaken identity, and at the trial will endeavor to prove this. TALES OF CRUELTY. Indentured House of Refuge Boys Fearfully Abused. Rufus Sharp, a colored man employed at the Laclede Hotel, was before the Board of Mana- gers of the House of Refuge asking for the release of Jesse Sharp who had been indentured from the House of Refuge to Edward Marshall, 3 farmer near Sikeston, New Madrid County. Sharp claimed his son had been treated very crueliy. At his request a colored lad, Wm. Smothers, ap eared before the board and gave his evidence regarding the cruelties practiced by Sikeston farmers to boys inden- tured to them. Smothers had deen indentured also and had met young Sharp, who had complained of his master’s cruelty. He had himself suffered from cruelty. He was taken from his bed one night by a party of men who tried to make him tell where a runaway boy had gone. At another time one of the ys whose time was out was bound to his master’s house and prevented from leaving, though he begged v hard. No colored boys were allowed to go to school, and the fortune of the white boys was not much better in that regard, though their indentures provided they were to have three months’ schogling. He told a number of stories that atly alarmed the managers, and they ordered the release of age Sharp. The order for his release will en to Sikeston by a Deputy Sheriff, Ordered to Show the Books.

The bakers say that it would be nearly im- possible for them to maintain any inde- pendence if they were to declare against e Knights, because they must look to the latter for support and oo-operation in the event of kes. The withdrawal of the Chicago Unions from the Internation- al body will, it is believed, be a severe blow to the latter, as ——— in the b has always been considered one of itschief supporters.

A. The prospects noted in another column fora harmonious adjustment of the differences that have split the Young Men’s Hebrew Association are made still brighter to-day by the decision of Mr. M. O. Reefer, editor of the Jewish Free Press, to resign from the new Board of Directors. Mr. Reefer’ said to-day that the only reason he accepted the position at the election last week was be- cause he regarded it as a vindica- tion of the criticism he had passed upon the Association.

The Execution of Four Indian Territory Murderers at Fort Smith, By Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., January 14.—Albert Odell, James Lamb, John T. Echols and John Stephens were hanged at Fort Smith to-day for murders committed in the Indian Terri- tory. About one hundred people witnessed the execution. Odell, Stephens and Echols joined the Catholic Church, and Lamb the Methodist before the execution, and were bap- tized. A ROSTER OF CRIMES. The murders which Albert O’ Dell, James E. Lamb, John T. Echols and John Stephens ex- — to-day were committed in the Indian Srritory. hen the hangman did his work and the lifeless bodies dangled in mid-air, hu- man justice was satisfied, but the deeds of the murderers live after them, cital: Onthe 27th of December, 1885, O’ Dell and Lamb killeda man named Bdward Pol- lard in the Cherokee Nation. The murder was very brutal. Pollard was shot in the head and instantly killed. He was walking away from his murderers when the fatal shot was fired. At the trial an extraordinary scene was witnessed, O’Dell swearing that Lamb did the killing, and Lamb denouncing O' Dell as the murderer. President Cleveland was urged to commute the death-sentence of each to life imprisonment, but refused to in- terfere after carefully examining the evi- dence. Lamb was born and raised in Craw- ford County, this State and was well-known. He moved tothe Indian Territory one year ago. The fate which to-day was meted out to him felllikea thunderbolt om his relatives and friends, who had predicted for him a bright and prosperous future. His death will make him more a martyr than a criminal in the eyes of very many people throughout Crawford County, who believe him innocent. JOHN T. ECHOLS murdered amanin the Territory some time ago. He was regarded as a desperate charac- ter, and, it is claimed, had killed several per- sons for money, besides having been impli- cated in numerous robberies. is execution to-day is regarded as an act of retributive jus- tice. Echols, during the time he was confined inthe Fort Smith Jail, made a good impres- sion upon nearly all with whom he came in contact. He claimed he was a victim of circumstances‘and more sinned against than sinning.’’ He also desired to write a history of his life, especially the last twenty- five years of it, saying that no novel ever yet written could exceed it in wonderful adven- tures, startling escapes and terrible crimes. For some reason this book was never written. The territorial officials gave Echols credit for — 7 extraordinary nerve. He was rave and reckless and no man held human life as cheaply. JOHN STEPHENS, a negro, murdered his companion inthe Ter- ritory some months since. The slaying was unusually brutal, and Stephens’ punishment to-day was scarcely a fit expiation. The only Stephens’ gross ignorance. He was not, how- ever, without considerable shrewdness. Since sentence was pronounced he has claimed to have talked with visitants from the other world, who assured him that his name was written on the Book of Life.“ BEFORE JUDGE NOONAN.

GAUDAUR TO EXPERIMENT WITH THE LAT- EST IMPROVEMENT ON WOOD. —— anne, Boats— gomething of American and English Challenge of Johnson, the Champion Sporting Gossip—Base Ball Chat, Mr. J. A. St. John, who has been spending a couple of weeks in the West, arrived in the city this morping and on his return found a jetter trom M. F. Davis, the boat-builder of portiand, Me., inclosing a sample of new material for boat-building. Mr. Davis does pot say of what the new material is composed but it bears a suspicious resemblance to pressed paper pulp coated with gum shellac. “Jt is claimed,’’ said the Saint, for this pew stuff that it is vastly superior to either paper or wood, masmuch as it has the disad- vantages of neither the one nor the other. The great difficulty found with paper boats is the tendency of the paper to soften when at- tacked by the water, which manages to get under the gum. The chief objection to wood has been the indentation left by the ribs, which can be plainiy pow | 2 nd, you know Machs ol Te great improvements in English oats and made the statement that Clasper of pondon built a better boat thaa any builder in America, The fact of the matter is that ali im- over there are distinctively Ameri- hg oz — adopted the Davis rowlock and seat and in fact everything that is good in the English boat is an American idea. “Will Gaudaur order a boat of the new ma- 9° * * Tes. e will have one built and it it is found by actual test to be a better craft than wood he will adopt it.

Their Antipathy to Prevent Byrne Entering the League. The Chicago correspondentof an Eastern sporting paper is credited with saying that in case the League would open its arms to Brook- lyn that club would desert the Association without notice. There can hardly be a ques- tion that the reverse of this statement is true and that in case Brooklyn would signify its willingness to desert the Association the League would open its arms without further notice. Referring to this statement, a Brooklyn paper rgues that whatever intention Mr. Byrne and ** associates may have in the matter the probability of their entering the League is rendered weak by the fact that the 1 anagement and the Brooklyn mansgemen lave been and even now are at war with each other. question of the Pittebarg’s jump was first mentioned Messrs. Nimick and Phillips were the Urst to deny it. Perhaps the same is th case with Brooklyn. Weldon on His Successor. In reference to the appointment of George Munson as Secretary of the Browns, Harry Weldon says: A private telegram from St. Louis announces the fact that George Munson has signed a contract to act as Secretary of the St. Louis Browns the coming season. Mr. Munson was until the time he signed with President Von der Ahe the Secretary ot the Bt. Louis Maroons, that is, he bore that title, butin fact ke was the manager and moving Spirit of the St. Louis League Club. Mr. Munson is a live, energetic hustier, and the Muroons owe their existence to his perse- verance and hustling abilities. In their dark- est hour, when rumors were rife about the St. Ouis League Club disbanding, Munson never ecame discouraged, but worked all the more @nergeticaily tosave them. Thathe has now CGeserted the League colors to go with the Champions of the world is a little straw that indicates that there is more in the story about the League dropping Kansas City and St. Louis than some peopie have been Willing to admit. The departure of George Munson means the early abandoament of the Maroons. Mr. Munson is agental fellow, and fs very popular in all quarters where he isknown. l'resident Von der Ahe is to be congreatuleted, and with such an able lieuten- ant the st. Lou.s Browns are sure to keep up their steady progressive march. Von der Abe and Munson will make a great team. * a JOUNSON’S DEFI, Hie Issues a Sweeping Challenge to Volkes and Other Sprinters. The following letter from H. M. Johnson, the celebrated sprint-runner, explains itself. It needs no introduction: Hearing so much talk about Fred Volkes and his wonderful improvement, and that he would make a match to run me 150 yards any time, I do hereby issue the following chal- lenge: I will give him three-quarters of a yard In 100, one yard in 130 or run him 150 yards level, or accept one yard start in 160. I re- cently offered Volkes two yards in 180, but knowing him to have improved greatiy, | cut down the start. 1 do bereby challenge an maa inthe world to ran me 100 yards, or 1 will run anybody 125, bar G.

Sporting Gossip. Gus Lambert, the Canadian middle-weight, who used to make things warm for Dominick McOaffrey, is in New York with the toboggan- ing party. Lambert, who now weighs 230 — proprietor of a sporting house in ontreal, Arthur Chambers has posted $250 at the Clipper office and challenges any man in the world to wrestle Joe Acton catch-as-catch-can style for from $250 to $1,000 a side and the rere Acton prefers to meet Evan Lewis, the ‘‘Chicago Strangler.’’ Mike Cleary, the well-known middle-weigbt pugilist, has returned to Philadelphia. e says the arm he broke on a pugilist’s bead in a bout at a sporting theater in that city still keeps him inactive, Cleary has dissolved partnership with Charley McManus, who was stabbed recentiy in @ midnight brawl, and will soon start a sporting house on his own account. Billy Madden has written this in defense of Johnny McAuliffe: ‘‘McAuliffe is a thorough fighter. He has all the qualitications, and will prove to the sporting public that he will rank among the champions. He is cf the same class as John L. Sullivan and Jack Dempsey, and if I was not engaged in other business he could fight for my money against any light- weightin the world.’’ Al Marx, the cowboy pugilist, is in the city. He is just recovering from a broken jaw he received in a fight last October at Omaha. His assailant has, he says, been shot and killed since the encounter, so that at present he feels no malice toward him. Marx will take a benefiton Franklin avenue and Sever- teenth street to-morrow night, when all the local sparrers will appeal. Paddy Smith, the light-weight boxer, has covered the $50 forfeit of Johnny Reagan of New York, and accepted Reagan’s — to fight at 138 pounds, with gloves, for $250 or $500 a side. The fight is to take place four weeks from signing articles, within 100 miles of the metropolis. Smith stands 5 feet 8% inches, is 23 years of age and weighs 140 pounds. He has won several encounters in the prize ring. Tickets for Gen. Lew Wallace's lecture, au- thor of ‘‘Ben Hur,’’ at Balmer & Weber’s, 50 cents; reserved, 25 cents extra. , RAIN! RAIN! The Cry of the Cattlemen in Texas—A Pro- longed Drouth. GALVESTON, Tex., January 14.—Dis- patches from almost every quarter of Texas during the past week tell of general anxiety existing throughout the length and breadth of the State over a prolonged drouth. Throughout the vast area em- braced within the great cattle and cotton districts known as the ‘‘Panhandle,’’ North Texas, West Texas, South Texas, and the central cotton belt, no rain has fallen since September last, nearly four and a half months. While reports from the cattle and sheep districts do not as yet chronicle any serious loss of stock by reasonof drouths, the result is none the less disastrous, as the vast cattle ranges are drying up. No new grass is growing and the ultimate loss of stock is inevitable. Cattlemen who have just returned from the south- west sections of the State beyond San Antonio tell of riding for days over parched prairies, covered with dried grass, whereas this section of Texas, in past years, has been one great carpet of green, about the area of Penn- sylvania. In the north, from Wichita alls to Fort Elliott, the ery of cattlemen is rain, rain, and widespread alarm existe among them. In the northern and cen- tral section of Texas around Dallas, Fort Worth, Sherman and Waco, where the wheat and other small graius of Texas are grown, the situation is no better than in the cattle districts, and the wheat flelds must all be plowed in the spring, render- ing the outlook for farmers gioomy. — — “GOVERNMENT LAND GRANTS.” —— The Topic Discussed at Merchants’ Club Din- ner in Boston. Boston, January 14.—The Merchants’ Club dinner was given at Parker’s last night, the attendance being large. Hon. Richard Briggs presided, and speeches were made by Hon. Charles Francis Ad- ams, Hon. John M. Forbes, Hon. Alden Speare and others. ‘‘Government Land Grants“ was the topic dis- cussed. In the course of his speech Mr. Adams, referring to the charges of influencing legislation in con- nection with the Union Pacific Railroad, said that not onedollar had been paid by the corporation nor had there been made by any person inthe management any sug- estion or word toinfluence any legisla- or’s vote.

CHIO, January 14.—It is believed that the failure to form a general pool on lum- ber from Chicago and Wisconsin points to all Missouri River points and west thereof bids fair to result fn a most serious war between the roads interested in that trat- fic. It is said that the St. Paul and North- western lines, taking advantage of a cut- off recently finished by the Union Pacific, connectin its main line with the Kansas acific, are sendin into Topeka, Kan., large quantities of lumber, from which point it is distributed throughout Southern Kansas. The south- western lines from Chicago to Kansas City have heretofore held a monopoly of this traffic and are exasperated over the loss. The northwestern lines make a bid for the business with a out of 2 centsa hundred which was met by the pool roads and still further reduced.

Judge Lubke Points Out an Oversight of the General Assembly—A Sad Domestic Re- cital—Damage Suits for Railroad Acctf- dents—Sidewalk Dangers—Matters in Lit- Judge Lubke to-day rendered a decision sus- taining the motion to quash the notice of oon - testin the contested election case of P. J. Taaffe, Justice of the Peace, against Jeremiah Ryan. The proceedings are dismissed for want of jurisdiction at the costs of the contestant, Mr. Taaffe. There is a difference between proceedings in Quo Warranto and those known as contests of election. The former are begun by the pub- lic prosecutor and are designed to oust from an office one whocan show no authority for holding it. In the latter case the State is not a party, but the respective individual claim- ants to an elective office are the adversaries. Although the proceedings in quo warranto may result in placing the actual- ly elected candidate into the office from which the defeated candidate has been ousted by the writof quo warrantothe result does not de- stroy the distinctive independent character of the proceeding called a contest of election. Mr. Taaffe and Mr. Ryan were respectively candidates for Justice of the Peace in the Fifth District. Mr. Ryan received the certificate and is in possession of the office. Mr. Taaffe, by these proceedings, sought to establish a better title to the office. Mr. Ryan moved to quash on the ground that the Court was without jurisdiction. It clearly appears from the statutory provisions that in the State at large the jurisdiction to try cases of contests of election of Justices of the Peace is with the county and not with the Cir- cuit Courts. responding, and the General e . in ap- parent oversight of this condition of things, made no provision vesting this particular jurisdiction in any court existing in this city. All that has been done is to invest the Mayor and Municipal Assembly with the ministerial powers, which before the separation of city and county was exercised by the County Court. Before the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of the State ex. rel. Francis vs. Dil- lon 87 Mo., 487, it was thought that this gap in the legislation ofthe State was filled in by the general statute declaring the jurisdiction of the Circuit Court to exist in all civil cases not cognizable in any other court. The su- preme Court beld that an express statute must confer such jurisdiction in cases of contested election. It cannot be heid that a Justice of the Peace in this city isa wage f officer with- in the meaning of the statute because he is not elected by the voters of the whole coun- ty. Crushed at a Crossing. Joseph Ibach entered a damage suit to-day in the Circuit Court against the Western Steel Company. He complains that on the 29th of October last he was driving a lumber wagon from the docks in Carondelet across the Iron Mountain tracks atthe Marceau street cross- ing, when a freight train operated by the Western Steel Company’s —— backed down without any warning, smashing the wagonand knocking the plaintiff into a ditch. He sustained serious injuries in the feet, neck, arms and shoulders and asks for $5,000 damages. It is contended that a watch- man should have been provided at the crossing. Returned to Her Parents. Alice Baker Willis entered a petition in the Circuit Court to-day seeking a decree of divorce from Robert Lester Willis. They were mar- ried in this city February 14, 1873, and lived to- gether until last July, when Mrs, Willis alleges that she was compelied to take her ohildren and go back to the home of her parents. She complains that for some years her husband spent his entire earnings in drink and dissipation. He failed to support his family and the rent ac- crued in every place, placing his wife in a humiliating position from time to time. From the birth of the children Mrs. Willis alleges that she has been forced to seek the assist ance of friends and relatives and to work when her heaith permitted in order to fur- nish food and necessary clothing although her husband all the time was earning sufficient to keep his family in comfort. She asks for the custody of the children, Ray,a boy of 12 years, and Zoe, a girl of nine years. A Mother’s Claim Contested. An answer was filed to-day in court in the habeas corpus case of Mabel Nofsinger, the renewed application of a mother for recovery ot her child, a little girl of 2 years. Mollie Lambert, who conducts a house of ill repute on Sixth street, near Spruce, has the child at present under her control. She alleges that it was given to Henry Bates by Dr. Fitzporter, at the request of the mother, on the Ist of October, 1885, and that she, Mollie Lambert, is nursing anc caring for the child at the Bates residence. She de- oe the petitioner is the mother of the child. At the former hearing, Judge Lubke held that there was a doubton that point and the claimant would have to produce further testi- mony in order to establish ber claim. The little one was born at Fitzporter’s lying-in quarters. Mr. Bates, who adopted the child, had received others from the same source, but they died. The matter will be heard again next Tuesday afternoon before Judge Lubke. The Peplar Street Track Again. The trial of the damage suit brought by Pat- rick Norton against the Missouri Pacific Rail- way Company was called up before a jury to- day in Judge Lubke’s court. The plaintiffisa furnace builder, having an office at the corner of the levee and Poplar street. On the morning of the 15th of last September a freight train on the Poplar street track left the rails and the locomotive ran against the side of Mr. Norton’s office, breaking in the walls and de- molishing things generally. It is contended that the track at that point was in a defective condKion, and thatthe train was running ata high rate of speed in violation of the ordi- nance. Perils of the Sidewalk. Mary Kirkpatrick was granted permission to-day in court to entera suit for damages as a poor person against Geo. Knapp & Co., vro- prietors of the Republican buiiding, on Third and Chestnut streets. She complains that on the 23d of last November a oellar-opening was left in a defective condition, unguarded on the sidewalk in front of the Knapp Build- ing and that in passing down Chestnut street she fell into the oes sustaining serious cuts and bruises and injuring her limbs to the extent of , 000, for which she claims a judg- ment.

Barrett's ‘‘Hamilet’”’—Rive-King’s Piano Re- citals—Bensberg Opera Company— Notes. A splendid audience which filled nearly every seat in the Olympic witnessed the last per- formance of ‘‘Olito’’ by Mr. Wilson Barrett last evening. The production was received with the enthusiasm which has marked the perfermance every night. To-night Mr. Barrett will present his produo- tion of Hamlet, which has aroused 80 much attention from students of Shakespeare. The tragedian has boldly thrown aside tradition and gives the play as nearly as Shakespeare wrote it as possible alming also to give the — 2 teas me to the character that was originally intended. The production is full of interest as a study of the great work and bas been pronounced a revela- tion by the most thorough Shakespearean scholars. It would be impossible to narrate all the changes from the traditional perform- ance ofthe play in the youth of Hamlet, in the change of the time between events and others, which have already been indicated in the Post-DisPaTCH. The advance sale for to- night has been vere large and the audience promises to be a brilliant one. THE RIVE-KING PIANO RECITALS. Mme.

Monday night the new Board meets to reorganize. special meeting of the Board of Directors ef the American Educational Aid Association was heid this week. The affairs of the associ- ation have net been running as smoothly as has been desired. It has seemed hard to get the interests of the association before fie public, and that support has net been won for the work that its promoters thought they could certainly secure. However, the board intends to inaugurate a decidedly different plan of operations, by which the objects and aims of the association will be brought to the immediate attention of the Christian poopse of the city. The board was ied to take this re- solve ina great measure by the encouraging nature of the report of the Superintendent, Rev. Isaac W. Higgs, who said that in the past year he had taken in sixty-two children nearly all of whom he had placed in goed Ohristian homes. The saving of the waits has beem se effectually done in the few cases already provided for by the limited means of the association that several of the members of the board say that they are now fully alive to the pest they ‘have’ Dosa” e l ave mn rather dere pushing its interests. — A Peck of Peas .

Items of Interest from the City Across the Big Bridge. Word was received here this morning that the Appellate Court had affirmed the decision of the lower court in the case of the School Board against ex-Treasurer Wm, P. Launtz and his bondsmen. The suit was brought to recover an amount equivalent to that part of the dramshop license which should have been paid over to the School Board, but was ap- ; riated by the Council and paid out oy the treasurer, for other purposes. The defense set up by Treasurer Launtz was that being a city officer he was bound to obey the orders ofthe Council and since he had been by that body not topay over the money to the School Board, he and his bonds- men were not liabie to the Board. Judge Snyder took this view of the case and decided in Mr. lLauntz’s favor. An appeal ‘was taken, but while the case ‘was nding in the Appellate Oourt the cles confessed judgment to the School Board for $79,000, the full amount of the dram- — license which should have been paid to the school fund, but was appropriated by the Council! for other purposes. The decision of the Appellate Court yesterday affirm the decision of the lower court was there- fore of no importance except that it exonerated Judge Launtz from all blame in holding back the school money when ordered to do so by the Council’. The costtothe city of litigating this case was in the neighborhood ,000, al Arch Chapter, No. 156, installed the ollowing officers last evening: John Neemes, ng; has. Rohn, Scribe; E. J.

The Archbishop Charged With Scheming to Defeat the Call for a Constitutional Con- vention—Other Priests Inhibited—George’s Bureau of Information—The Church and Tammany Hall—Interference of the Ital- ian Prelates. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPaTcH. New Tonk, January l4.—Henry George de- votes another broadside of this week’s Standard to Archbishop Oorrigan and Dr. Mo- Glynn. This is an extract which certainly will be news to the public: It may be news tothe genbtral public, but it is, nevertheless, a fact that Archbishop Corri- gan, in the last election, not only wanted to defeat a certain candidate, but also wanted to defeat the call for a constitutional conven- tion; that letters from him were sent to priests telling them to work against the convention, and that ata gathering, where one of these priests endeavored to carry out this instruc- tion, a proposition was made to get hold of the bags containing the ballots in favor of the constitutional convention, and by making away with them to lessen the vote iu its favor. OTHER PRIESTS INHIBITED. Here is another piece of news: Dr. McGlynn was notthe only priest who was prohibited from giving any countenance tothe move- ment that threatened the New York municipal rings. Other priests who had never made any public utterances onthe land question and who, so farasIknow, have no special opin- ions upon it, but who were disposed to take part with the workingmen simply from their disguest with the rottenness of our ad- ministration, were likewise inhibited from doing so. It they had possessed the courage of Dr. McGlynn they, it is presumable, would have been suspended, though it is hardly likely that they would have been summoned to Rome since, not filling so large a place in the public eye as the pastor of St. Stephen’s Church, they could have been disciplined here more.quietiy. On the other hand, not only was the Vicar-General permitted to issue a pronunciamento against workingmen’s can- didates, which was distributed on the Sunday before election at the church doors, but, without a word of remonstrance, as far as the public knows, priests were permitted to speak against the party from their altars, and, in some cases at least, the powers of the confes- sional and the threat of the refusal of absolu- tion was used againstthe party who opposed the Tammany ring. ARCHBISHOP CORRIGAN’S POSITION LUDICROUS. Mr. George evidently basa bureau of infor- mation about the Catholic priesthood which is not reached by thedaily papers. This fact lends added interestto the statement which he makes of the relations of one of the Catho lio secular clergy to his superiors in the Church. Thisis a summary: It is not true that Dr. McGlynn has said anything antago- nistic to the Catholic doctrine. The Catholic Church does not uphold private ownership in land as a matter of faith and doctrine. This is proved by the utterances of Bishop Nulty of Meath. Catholic doctrine is not one thing in Irelund and another here. The position of Archbishop Corrigan is, from a Catholic standpoint, simply ludi- crous. For him and Dr. Preston to define a Catholic dogma on this point is to assume ecumenical powers. Eventhe Pope himself, when four years ago he ordered Simeoni to order Cardinal McCloskey to suspend Dr. Me- Glynn for teaching doctrines contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church, so far from defining adogma binding on the conscience of Catholics, was abusing his power. The secular priest does not take the vow of child- like obedience that the regular priest takes, but simply a vow of obedience to the ordinary of his diocese in reference to the matters which concern the religious functions of a riest. The obligation taken at ordination ya student in the Propaganda College is simply that the student, now made priest, will return to hisown diocese and engage in — work. The obligation of Dr. Me- slynn’s case does not extend beyond New York. He cannot be ordered to Boston or Philadeiphia, andthe Cardinals of the Propa- ganda have no more right to call him to Rome than the facultyof Yale have to call one of their graduates. The real power ot an Arch- bishop to compel a priest to keep silence arises simply from abuse ofthe appointing 0 cannot dictate 1 priest, him and ; Dr. McGlynn be making a stand against, should he refuse to go to Rome, is this abuse of ecclesiastical power, which is to the Church just what the **spolls systems’’ isto the State. Instead of doing anything inconsistent with his order, he would be making a stand for the rights of his order. And whatever the theologians of the daily press may have to say, this, to my personal knowledge, is the view taken of the case by many Catholic priests, who, however, though ney fear to speak publicly, really look upon Dr. McGlynn as their champion against an ecclesiastical tyranny which they feel be- littles their position and degrades their man- hood. THE CHURCH AND TAMMANY. The suspension of Dr. McGlynn, we have learned, was due in the first place to Dr. Me- Glynn’s presence at a political meeting which he had been specially ordered not to attend, a meeting in favor of a certain candidate, whom Archbishop Corrigan did not want to have elected. sto the cause ofthe second sus- 8 which occurred after Dr. McGlynn lad deen restored to the exercise of his priestly funetions, and some time after the election, the seml-official account given to the press has been very hasty. In the case of Dr. McGlynn it 15 evi- dent that in both instances Rome has pare been used— in 1882 dy the British Envoy Errington, and in 1886 by Arch- bishop Corrigan, evidently at the instance or under the influence of the Tammanyring. It is notorious that in New York the Catholic Church has Se ga series of years been more or less allied with Tammany, and that this influence, for which a quid pro quo has been paid by grants of public property at nominal prices and lavish appropriations of public money, has been one of the many sources of the strength of the rings that in this city have degraded the name of Democracy. INTERFERENCE OF ITALIAN POLITICIANS. Mr. George devotes half a column to con- trasting the late James A. McMaster with Dr. McGlynn, to the former’s disadvantage, and pointing out that Archbishop Corrigan In per- son attended the funeral of an open ene- my of free government everywhere.’’ Then he returns to the subject of the interference by Italian politicians in American politics.

HERE FOR SAFE KEEPING. A Murderer Who Made Desperate Attempts to Break Jail. This morning Sheriff Oscar Ehlers of Frank- lin County, Mo., arrived in the city with Wed; ster Jackson, whom he placed in jail for safe- keeping. Jacksonisthe young man who was recently brought back from Ohio to answer to acharge of murder against him in Franklin County. He was employed in the kitchen of a railroad contractor out there and became a fast friend of the old man who did the cooking forthe camp. The old fellow was known to have saved up about Foo, which he carried abeut with him, and one day Jackson took him out fora walk. The next morning the dead body of the old fellow was found on the road and Jackson was missing. The old man ha been murdered and robbed. There was a strong chain of circumstantial evidence against Jackson, but nothing was heard of him for some time. It was finally learned that he was under Ohio for horse-stealing, and brought back here on a requisition. Jackson bears a very bad reputation and had served a sentence before in Ohio for horse- stealing. Since his return to Fraukiin County he has been endeavoring to break jail. He got possession ofa piece of iron in some way and has been trying to pick the locksor cut his way out. It was feared he would succeed and he was brought herefor safe keeping. While being brought back to this State from Ohio he endeavored to commit suicide. arrest in he was IN A STATE OF SIEGE. A Malicious Prosecation—Shot and Killed— Frozen te Death—Texas Topics.

A Horrible State of Affairs—Outrageous Punishment by Whipping, Hanging Up by the Wrists, Bucking and Gagging and “Shoo-Fly” or Water Correction— The Kicking Jenny—Col. Wilkerson, By Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. PARKERSBURG, W. Va., January 14.—Charges of brutality, inhumanity and ill-treatment of prisoners have been brought against the man- agement of the West Virginia Penitentiary,and the allegations disclose a horrible state of affairs in that institution. Among them are statements of outrageous punishment by whipping, hanging up by the wrists, bucking and gagging, and by the ‘‘shoofly’’ or water correction. Some time ago Col. Wilkerson, the Assistant Superintendent, resigned, as he alleges, on account ofthe crue! inhumanity and barbarity of the Superintendent, the executive officer of the institution. Among the instruments oftorture in use is the ‘‘shoo fly, a heavy frame arrangement, in which the prisoner is made fast, his neck an d hands being fastened immovably in stocks, while his feet, extended at full length, are likewise made secure. Thus fixed, the pris- oner is ready for torture. The guards stand at a distance of ten feet and with an inch hose turn upon the shivering, naked victim a tor- rent ofice cold water full in the face witha pressure of 100 pounds to the square inch. This is kept up until the executioner tires or his victim faints, or his head drops to one side from suffocation. The shock of ice water to the naked body is, ofcourse, very great, 80 much so that it has frequeutly happened that the convict would be taken with a heavy chill and laid up for a long time, if not killed. THE KICKING JENNY. Another instrument formerly a favorite with prison authorities is called the ‘‘Kicking Jenny.“ This device is a curved frame struct- ure forming a quarter ofacircie, the upper end of which is about four feet above the floor. The convict, stripped naked, is laid on this af- fairon his stomacn, his feet tied to a ring in the foor while his hands are hungover the upper end and drawn taut by a rope and tackle fast to the floor. The executioner then takes a whip, the lash of which is composed of two strips of sole leather sewed toge ther at the corners. This whip is three inches broad at the end which forms the handle and tapers to a sharp point. With this man- killing arrangement the lashes are laid on across his bare back until the victim is one series of red and blue welts from his hips to his shoulders. Then the guard varies this perennial amusement by changing the direc- tion of the lashes. They are then laid on transversely, cutting skin and flesh and bring- ing the blood at every stroke. This punish- ment, it is alleged, has been administered un- til the victim is a mass of welts and cuts. He is then ordered off to work, and if his task is not completed, which often happens, as the convict, if he ever was before, is not then able to do the amount of work allotted to him,after his terrible punishment, he is again taken back and given another round of the same character. Haif a dozen men have often been led to this slaughter at one time and compelled to stand by and look on while one of their number is roaning and crying in distress from the pun- shment given him before their eyes, and then they are compelled to undergo the terrible ordeal, It is alleged that men have been so terribly punished on the ‘‘hicking Jenny’’ that their backs were a mass of running sores months afterwards, and itis stated that they have been so terribly cut to pieces that when ordered back again the executioner would say | their backs were so badly cut to pieces that he could not find a sound spot to strike. The as- sistant superintendent alleges that men have been Known to carry livid scars from June to December. Many of the victims never recoy- ered. THE BULL-RING. Another instrument is the bull- ring. By this arrangement aconviet would be hoisted by the wrists several feet from the floor and left hanging for from five to flitv minutes. The agony is described as harrowing, great drops of perspiration starting out of the vic tim’s every pore. His screams of agony, itis alleged, couid be heardalong distance. It was the screams of men suffering these tor- ments that led to the discovery and complaint. Opposite the prison live a number of private citizens, and itis stated that a short time ago the screams, i prayers and pite- ous begging o men swung upon the ‘‘pull-ring’’ pemetrated the thick walls of the prison, across the rege space and senta shock of horror and indignation through that little community. Believing that the prisoners were being murdered, there was talk of investigation. This taik came tothe ears of the Superintendent, and it is alleged that he ordered the guards whenever they punished the convicts (which was done gen- erally in the subterranean depths of the prison) totake the other convicts above, in the halis and rooms overhead, and compel them to dance and sing in orderto drown the noise made by the screaming, agonized con- victs who were being punished. The citizens are highly incensed, and signify their willing- ness to testify to the above statements. In addition to the modes of torture already described, convicts are frequently bucked and gagged and leftin that position until they are unable to move a limb when first released. The ‘‘tasks’’ set the convicts are not propor- tioned to their strength or ability to per- form, and often when their hauds are cut with the threads in the broom-shops, or by ma- terial in the wagon factories, an they are sick or unable to periorm their tasks, they are re- ported ‘‘short’’ and brutally punished. The Assistant Superintendent informed the Posr- DISPATCH correspondent that for four- teen months there had been at least two deaths per month, and every one of the victims had been brutaily punishedin some manner. When it had become known that Col. Wilkerson -had made charges of cru- elty against the Superintendent and the prison managers, two members of the Board of Directors, in the absence of the other three undertook to whitewash theaffair. They had begun an alleged examination when a third member appeared and puta stop to it, saying that if an inyestigation was to be had, Mr. Wilkerson should be given time to produce charges and witnesses, and that the other members of the board should be informed and the matter gone into regularly. This puta stop to the alleged examination and brings the matter directly betore the Legislature. The Government of the United States has a num- ber of prisoners confined in this institution, and it bas leaked out that many of them have been brutally punished. The Government is now making pertinent inquiries, and the re- sult will most probably be a series of indict- ments against the prison authorities.

NIAGARA Fatis, Ont., January 14.— That portion of the rugged bank nearest the Horse Shoe Falls on the Canada side, | known as Upper Table Rock,“ fell at an early hour Thursday with a deafening crash that was heard, and the concussion elt fora mile away. Thousands of tons of solid rock fell into the gorge below, and with it hundreds of tons of ice. The exact position of the break is between the Prospect House and the great Horse Sffee Falls, just above the old table rock and next to the spiral stairway leading to the path behind the sheet of water. It was only by a miracle that the stairway was not demolished. The Gov- ernment iron railing for over 150 feet was carried away. It is at this very spot that nearly all the visitors stand and get a view of the falls. Had this fall of rock occurred in the day time undoubtedly a heavy loss of life would have occurred. The formation of the recipice is now entirely changed. Sas can now stand on the bank above and see behind the heavy sheet of water into a dark chasm. A mass of lime- stone and slate 1,000 feet in length b about 60 feet in width and 170 feet eep, piled in a heaping mass below. One hun- dred and three thousand yards is caleu- lated to have fallen.
