Under tne plan of redistricting two of the old wards are thrown into one, leaving two resentatives for the new ward, while in other instances the new wards are made up of patches, none of which include a Central OCommitteeman. The new division of the city will change the complexion of the wards, and in some cases leave local ses without a by establishing new lines which precincts into different y breaking up old strongholds. The guides are — disturbed and are eager for to-night’s council. The Congressional Contest. The Congressional contest court resumed business this morning at room 15 in the Turner building, when a dozen colored men were ex- amined concerning their rejected votes. Over one hundred witn ‘ been esses have already examined, but the results are held in very dif- ferent estimates by the interested parties. Speaking of the testimony Mr. Frank J. Donovan, who re te Congressman Glover, said: ‘‘This testimony does not amount to anything. It is a waste of time bringing these men here and questioning them about thelr attempts to vote. Under the law not one of them was entitled to vote. They had been stricken off the liste and so published. They made no application to be reinstated, and they were not entitied to In anewer to this Mr. Frank says; Tuat is „ Donovan’s construction of the law. ese men are voters under the law. There was no reason why they should be disfran- and their votes will be counted in this eontest. Concern! the contest, I feel that fraud was commit at the last election, and ngress in one the Districts of this city Ihave a right to election as Vestigate and review Believing that was committed, I owe ht to myself and tomy friends todo what I can to unveil that „ Idon’t know what the result will be, or who is responsible for the crooked work done in this city, but s0 as can I will do my share towards petnging the parties to punishment.’’ To-day the parties tothe contest and their legal rep- Tresentatives adjourned to the back office of the er of Voters, where Notary Stephen- gon opened his Court to make ments forthe opening of the ballot-boxes of the 111 precincts of the Ninth Congressional District. District Attorney Bliss Retires. United States attorney Bliss returned to- day from the South and is preparing for the opening of court to-morrow. Judge Bashaw did not put in an appearance to-day at the Government Building, though he was ex- pected by some of the officials. He will qual- ify as United States Attorney this week. A Street Scene in the Nineteenth Century. About 2 o’clock this afternoon pedestrians on Olive and Sixth streets were entertained by the public performance of a littie home drama. The actors were a lady and child, who took refage on an Olive street ear, and presumably the husband and father, who, followed by a large crowd, waiked along the sidewalk abusing the woman and child. The car distanced the man, greatly to the re- lief of the woman and child. Counting the Ballots. The notary, Mr. John H. Stephenson, to-day began the task of opening the ballot- boxes and counting the votes for Congressman cast at the recent election in the Ninth district. At 4 p. m. two boxes had been — and the third begun upon. The only iecrepan discovered was in the box of Precinct 183, in which the count to-day showed Wat Mr. Glover had received fourteen votes than had been credited him. count of Precinct 175 was the second one made, and discovered no mistake. At (p. m. the Notary and assistants were at work upon the box of Preciuct 180. The count is being made in the office of the Recorder of Voters at the City Hall. THE STATE GRAND-JUBRORS Take In a New Member and Then Adjourn Until Thursday. When David F. Kaime was excused Saturday from further service as a Grand-juror, owing to Ulness in his family, subponas were issued forex-Goy. E. O. Stanard and Mr. Hugh L. Fox. The latter made his appearance first ia court this morning and was immediately pressed into service asa juror, and when Mr. Stanard arrived he was exoused. The jury only remained in ses- ‘siona coupie of hours, when they returned three indictments into court and ad until Th Tw in the tne late eral election, t will probably decide ay whether they will investigate them. Corporation Elections. The following directors were elected this ‘morning by the stockholders of the St. Louis Smelting and Refining Company: G. W. Chad- bourne, James W. Bell, J. C. Van Blareom, , FOUR BOILERS EXPLODE.. Two Men Killed and Many {njured—Acci- dent ata Fire. Prrrepure, Pa., January 24.—A battery of four steel boilers at Spang, Chalfant & Co.’s steel and iron works at Mtnaborough, six miles east of Allegheny City, exploded with terrific force at5 o’clock this morning, com- pietely wreckipg the bar mill department, killing one man instantly and seriously in- juring a number of others. The concussion was 60 great that it shook the houses for miles around, shattering windows in the vicinity of the mill ana awakening the residents of the borough, who rushed in terror from their houses, scantily clad, to learn the cause. It was ascertained that four boilers of a battery of six had burst, spreading death and disaster in their wake. For some time after the explosion it was impossible to tell what damage had been done, the shower of dust, brick and mortar completely shutting the mili from view. When the debris had settied it was found thatthe fireman, George Patterson, had been instantly killed. His body was mangled almost beyond recogni- tion. William Corville, an employe, who was given work four days ago, was picked up from under the boiler in A DYING CONDITION. He was scalded with steam and will not re- cover. He came here from Bethlehem, Pa., last week. Barkley Knocton, a puddler, was hiton the head with * bricks and pain- fully injured. M. M. Millholland,a he per. had one leg hurt and was otherwise slightly injured. Several others received slight burns and bruises, but were not seriously hurt. The ruin wroughtin the mill by the x= sion was complete. The building was laid low and the machinery broken and scattered tn all directions. The foree of the explosion must have been terrific, as large pieces of boiler iron were found hundreds of yards from the scene of the disaster. One piece, weighing at least 1,000 pounds, cut its way through the entire mill and fell on the public road fully 500 yards distant. The dam- age to the mill will exceed $30,000. The cause of the explosion is not yet known, but an in- ves tion is now in progress. Fortunately there were very few men at work at the time or the list of dead and injured would have been ater. The mill was one of the largest in the city, and was the first one to use natural gas. ANOTHER VICTIM. William oOorville, who was so terribly scalded, died about II o'clock this morning. Twelve persons were more or less injured by the steam or fiying debris, but none of the others Engineer Williams says that he the gauges ten minutes before boilers burst and that there was plenty of water. The battery had been in use two vears, and at the last inspec- tion was pronounced in good condition. A piece of one of the boilers, weighing 2,500 pounds, was found 300 yards from the scene of the explosion. In its fight it cut through the trunk of a tree two feet in diameter, leaving nothing but the trunk standing. The mill will be rebullt at once. Accident at a Fire. CINCINNATI, January 24.—The janitor who built fires this morning at the officeof R. J. Cresap, real estate dealer, No. 18 West Fourth street, discovered that the stove-pipe which runs through a wooden par- tition on the second story had set it on fire and threatened soon to cut off escape from third story by the _§stair- way. Mr. and Mrs. Cresap occapied the third story as sleeping and living apart ments. The janitor, after giving the alarm of fire, ran up stairs, seized Mrs. sent and bore her safely down past the flames. Not seeing Mr. Cresap he ran back and found that gen- tleman 80 much excited that he was about to jump from the window. The janitor tried to restrain him but without success. Cresap meee and struck an awning iron, causing an njury to the spine which may be fatal. The janitor got down stairs safely though the stairway was on fire. A Steamer Ashore. SAVANNAH, GA., January %&.—The steamer Delaware of the Clyde Line, is ashore in the breakers, near St. Andrew’s Sound. Tugs have gone to her assistance. No particulars can be obtained. BEFORE JUDGE NOONAN. A Number of Cases of Importance Disposed of This Morning. Dick Gordon, a young man from Chicago, who claims to be a member in good standing of the Young Men’s Christian Association, was given four months in the Work-house by Judge Noonan this morning for stealing a $2 pair of overshoes from Christian Wunsch. Wiliam Grimm, the last of the ‘‘touts’’ who came here with the races last spring and were stranded, was sent to the Work-house for stealing an $8 pair of pants from T. J. Griffin and pawning them. Grimm is a Memphis negro. Adolph Began had a preliminary hearing on a charge of embezzling $00 from the whole- sale liquor firmof Joseph Werner & Co. of 1825 South Seventh street, for whom he was a Grummer and collector. He admitted col- lecting money to that amount which he never id in to the firm, buf claimed he had spent t working 5 trade for them. He was held for the Grand- jury in the sum of $800. Edward Goerges was accused of stealing a sewing - machine and gasoline stove valued at 840 from Mrs. Caroline Row- land. It developed that she owed him a bill and he kept the articles and re- fused to deliver them to her until his bill was settled. A nollie prosequi was entered in the case, Prosecuting-Attorney Claiborne claim a her remedy was to replevin the property. odman Johnson was sent to jail for one day for stealing 25 cents worth of whisky from his n August Wissmann. The cases of Henry Sommerfeld, petit lar- ceny, and James B. Hart and Henry Simon, assault and battery, were dismissed. HE KILLED HIS MISTRESS. Milton H. Neal, a Fullman Porter, on Trial for His Life. The trial of Milton H. Neal, colored, charged with murder, was commenced in the Criminal Court this morning. He is a big, strapping, brown-skinned negro palace car por- ter who in a fit of jealousy killed his mistress, Nellie Hayden, at 722 South Tenth street on July 24, 1884. After liv- ing with him for four years Nellie tired of Neal, and during his absence on trips received the attentions of other men. They quarreled about his —— — to mortgage the furniture, and accusing her of infidelity, he drew a reyolver and forcing her to the wall placed the weapon to her head and fired. The ball passed through ber head, causing almost instant death. Im- mediately after firing the shot he threw the weapon under the bureau, and when the lice arrived they foand him! weeping itterty over what he claimed was the acci- —_ killing ofthe woman by him. Hezzy ayden, 10-year-old son of the m ered woman, had witnessed the killing and said that his mother was armed with a razor some time before the shot was fired. This will be the first trial of the case. — — Obituary. By Telegraph to the Posr-Disrarcn. ST.

The Presbyterian Pastors Denounce Cards— A Christian Editor Takes a Broader View —Future Probation Rejected—Eulogies on Dr. Post— Monday Ministers’ Mect- ings. The Presbyterian pastors had an unustally interesting meeting this morning. Devotional exercises were led by Rev. J. Addison Smith of Des Peres, who was subsequently elected a member of the Ministerial Association. The question of what the Presbyterian churches of the city would contribute toward the salary of the chaplain of the city institutions came up as postponed business from last week’s meeting. As a number of the pastors had not got the opinion of their congregations on the matter, it was decided to defer the matter and let each minister in- form Rev. Dr. Brank by letter during this week of what each church will donate. PROGRESSIVE EUCHRE CONDEMNED. Then Rev. Dr. Coons read a paper that created considerable lively discussion. His subject was progressive euchre and card - playing in general. Dr. Coons is away along in years, being over 70, and in recent years has n doing mach composing of religious poetry in blang verse. A volume of these poems was put on the St. Louis mar- ket a year or so ago. Despite his rythmic pre- dictions he bandied cards in anything but a poetie spirit. It made no difference to him in the deal whether they came face up or not; he just went right on scattering them right and left. He emphatically declared it to be not the proper thing fora Christian to play rogressive euchre or cards at all. He didn’t elieve it to be consistent with Christian pro- fession for such practices to exist among hristians THE POSITION SUSTAINED. At the conclusion of the paper there was not much disposition to have a formal discussion on the delicate subject, and what views were expressed were advanced without much for- mality. Rev. Dr. Robt. Brank of the Central indorsing his venerable colleague. : Rev. Dr. Vander Lippe of the First German, and Rev. George E. Martin of the First Church, took the same ground, and the general senti- ment of the gathering was in favor of the con- demnation Voiced by the paper, Rev. J. H. Garrison, editor of the Christian Evangelist, was asked his opinion regurding this stand by the Presbyterians, and said; There are certain things which in and of themselves do no harm; but they have certain associations which Christian people have to pay attention to. KEEPING CARDS PURE. Dont you believe that it is wise to keep a legitimate source of amusement within the limits of purity, to keep the amusement good, rather than to drive it out and relegate it en- tirely to the bad?’’ Tes, Ithink so. Ithink it wise to keep it good if possible. However, I don’t believe the Presbyterians condemn cards by them- selves, but because they have certain associa- meee which may lead persons away from the right. REJECTED FUTURE PROBATION. The Methodist ministers had another catch- as-can wrestle with the Andover theologians this morning on the subject of ‘‘Future Probation,’’ which was opened last week by Dr. Felton’s paper. To-day Rev. Frank Lenig reopened the discussion with an essay on the same subject. The general ques- tion of a chance hereafter was fully discussed at the meeting, at which there was a large attendance. The following conclusions, which were presented in Mr. Lenig’s paver, were indorse by the ministers: 1. We reject the doctrine ot a future proba- tion because its acceptance does not add to practical — meg § 2. Because so far it is a mere theory. 3. Because it is not taught in God's word, nor can it be inferred therefrom upon any proper principle of interpretation. OTHER MEETINGS. The Baptists were visited by Rev. Mr. Thomas who preached at Kirkwood last night as a candidate and made an impression that will ae eg | grow into a call. Rev. W. W. Harvey, the missionary from Africa, was also a visitor. The meeting was treated to an excellent sermon from Rev. Dr. W. H. Williams, editor of the Central Baptist, on the ‘*Symbolism of Baptism’’ The Central Baptist is preparing to publish another batch of views on the celib- acy question, this time from V. W. H. Sloan, 1 Mexican missionary. The Southern Methodists jand nrigtians heard nothing but reports. The Oongrega- tional pastors met at First Church, and de- votedthe hour to éulogies on the late Rev. Dr. T. M. Post. MATTERS IN COURT. Death of Little Dave,“ the Distiller—Cases of Interest on Trial. In the matter of the partnership estate of Woodward & Tiernan, the Probate Court to- day made an order authorizing the surviving partner, Wm. H. Woodward, to sell to him- self the interest of his deceased partner in the business. David Crites of Cape Girardeau, better known among revenue oflicials as ‘‘Little Dave, will not answer in the United States District Court to the charges of illicit distilling referred against him some time since. The Jnited States Marshal received information of his death yesterday. The Crites family have frequently figured in the United States Court on charges of illicit distilling. The Master in the Wabash case reported to the Federal Court to-day the dismissal of the intervening petitions of Theodore Knobloch and Wager Swayne. The latter claim was in respect of a balance of the Indianapolis, Peru & Chicago Road. Rev.

The question was raised to-day in connection with a sale of 1,000 shares of Sheridan at 15 cents. The broker who sold it claimed that it was a genuine transaction, but that he had afterward bought back the stock, assuming a sale of 100 shares made by the pur- chaser. The man who purchased the stook claimed that the broker had followed him to the other end of the Exchange and offered to let him off“ saying that he had -20,000 shares of stock to sell, and that the market was bound to sell down. On these represen- tations he scratched the trade. Afterward he and the broker had a wordy war which at- tracted attention foratime. Several members — to bring this matter before the direc- rs.

BOYD MEANS BUSINESS, The Pastor Wants His Resignation to Be Acted On. The resignation of Rev. Dr. W. W. Boyd was read to his congregation at the Second Baptist Church yesterday. It was no surprise, as the first announcement of this anticipated step two weeks ago in the PostT-DISPATCH had pre- pared the church for it. No reasons were ad- vanced by Dr. Boyd in the resignation, which was arepetition of the statement made at the annual meeting of the church several weeks ago, and closed with the request that his resig- nation go into effect the last Sunday in April. Dr. Boyd when seen to-day said that he hoped the church woul accept the resignation, as it meant business, and there was no joking. He was told that there was some talk in the church of PN resolution request - ing him to remain, but he expressed the hope that no such action would be thought of, as oe had come to his decision after months of prayerful thought, and he wanted it to be quietly regarded. From the church in Newark which had made him overtures he said he had heard nothing further. The Second Baptist church, he hoped, would take action on his resignation at the next meeting.

Jerrerson City, Mo., January 24.—Mr. Thos. B. Harvey, attorney in the Adams Ex- press robbery cases for Messenger Fothering- bam, arrived here this morning. The object of his visit is to obtain the presence in court at St. Louis next Monday of Wittrock and Haight, the express robbers, at present con- fined in the Penitentiary. re Boone informed him this mornin a was contrary to precedent to take the convicts from the Penitentiary for that purpose and ex- ressed it as his opinion that Warden Marma- Auxe had no power under the law to grant a request such as made by Mr. Harvey for the temporary transfer of Wittrock and aight to St. — Gov. Marmaduke when seen by Mr. Harvey entertained the same opinion on the matter as the Attorney-General, but re- ferred Mr. Harvey tothe Warden. Mr. Har- vey will see the Warden of the Penitentiary this evening, but anticipates that his request will be — . in which event, he says, Ju Normile will be asked for awrit of habeas corpus on the Warden compelling him to sur- render Wittrock and Haight for the purpose of testifying in 8t. Louls. Should the writ be refused then the depositions of the prisoners will be taken next Friday in the Penitentiary. The Supreme Court Called On. When Thomas B. Harvey and ex-Gov. Jobn- son, attorneys for Express Messenger Fother- ingham, complained about the action of the Criminal Court In sending Wittrock and Haight, the express robbers, roa before they could as witnesses in client, Judge Normile said could be brought here by writ of habeas cor- pus, and that he would guarantee to get them here if they were wanted. Gov. Johnson and Circuit Attorney Clover were conversing together when a Post- DISPATCH representative approached them to-day after receiving the news from Jefferson City of Mr. Harvey's ef. forts to getthe men out. When he informed them of the steps Mr. Harvey had taken, Gov. Johnson sad: Tes and he will now apply to the State Supreme Court. He went up there last night, and I told him to o direct to the State Supreme Court if the State officers refused to allow the prisoners to come. Why not to Judge Normile?’’ asked the re- orter. He promised you to have them here they were wanted. „don't think he has any power in the mat- ter, that is why. The men are out of his juris- diction.’’ Would not a writ of habeas corpus issued by him bring them?’’ „Well, they might allow the prisoners to come as a courtesy, but the Court would have no power to enforce its order. Its power in the matter does not extend beyond the Eighth Judicial Circuit. Mr. Clover was asked his opinion and said: ‘*This court here has no power in the matter, and if the officers there refuse to bring the prisoners it cannot foree them to do so. Like Gov. Johnson, Ithink the Supreme Court is the only tribunal with the power. JUDGE NORMILE, when asked about the matter remarked: When I told those gentiemen I would have these people here if wanted. Imeant to use every process inthe power of the court to bring them here, and that I am still will- ing to do. I have not looked up the law on the subject thoroughly, but Goy. Johnson informs me that he has and that this court has no powerin the premises. Ii they want the men herelshall issue a writ for them, and if that has not the power to bring them of course it is no fault of mine. I am willing to do everything in my power to bring them here. I shall have Mr. Clover write the Governor and Attorney-General request- ing that the prisoners be allowed to come, and not to allow technicalities to interfere with their présence here, as the men will be perfectly safe inthe hands of the Sheriff. If this fails ahey can take their testimony by deposition, which is just as good, so that the defense will suffer nothing.’’ Can they be brought here by setting aside their sentences?’’ „Well, that I do not know about. At any rate that step is unnecersary as their deposi- tions can be taken. ABOUT TOWN. UNIVERSAL H.

A FRIEND IN NEED. An Unknown Man Who Appeared to Kossuth in an Emergency. In the last volume of his memoirs Louis Kossuth relates an incident which occurred immediately after the Hungarian revolu- tion of 1848. Kossuth had fled to Widdin, and, with a companion was in danger of being handed over to the enemy unless a letter could be immediately dispatched to Lord Palmer- ston, begging his intervention. Kossuth goes on to say: While we were thinking over how this could be done, a man entered my apartment—a on English figure, with his hat pushed k from his forehead, an immense umbrella under his arm, covered with dust, and looking — weary. It could be easily seen that he had just come from a long journey. ‘‘Good day, gentlemen!” ‘Good day, sir; can we oblige you!“ I have come from India to fight for the freedom of Hungary. It looks as if I had come too late.’’ too late. Take a Unfortunately, chair?“ He sat down, pushed his hat still further back, wiped the pare from his forehead, placed his umbrella between his legs, and busied himself with cleaning his fingernails. Henningson whispered to me: „We have already a courier who won't stand still until he's in Downing street.“ “Whom do you mean?” said I. „That man there. He is an Englishman, and that is enough.“ He stepped up to him, and tapped him on the shoulder. 4 Sir!“ „What is the matter!“ eis your passport in order?” „es.“ Have you money?“ „Ves.“ „Well, the matter is so“ —(and here he — the circumstances). ‘‘We re- quire a man who will travel to London without stopping and without sleeping and who will not rest until he has aced this letter in Lord Palmerston’s Will you do that?” The brave Englishman . up from his chair, reached me his hand. and mere - ly said: Where is the letter?“ I gave it to him, he put it in his knap- sack, drew his hat down over his ears, took his umbrella under his arm and said: All right! good- by,“ and he rushed out. In less than a quarter of an hour I heard the sound of horses’ hoofs on the street, and there he was with a servant, due west. He took advantage of the quickest route, and did not rest till he had put my letter in Palmerston’s hands. The letter also had the desired effect. As I was traveling to Niagara,'in Amer- ica, our train stopped at a station to allow another train to pass in the opposite di-. rection. At the desire of the people I stepped to the carriage window.

The fisheries question, the presence of a Pan-Electrio Attorney-Gen- eral in the Cabinet, the mistakes of our dipiomatio corps, the reduction of the sur- plus, the abolition of the internal revenue taxes, all these are questions which are less important than the enforcement of the Interstate Commerce bill, towards which all minds are turned, and the first and chief interest is centered in the ap- pointment of the question is ‘*‘Whom will the President ap- point!“ appointed, nor even to say who will not be appointed, but we can say something about who should not be appointed.

There are other rr — cory leaders to serve them without compensa- tion corresponding to the amount they would receive in other employments, but a man who draws a salary of $5,000 a year is hardly a representative of the wage- workers. CITIZENSHIP. Circuit Judge Spencer at St. Joseph has conferred the shrievalty of Buchanan County upon Jom Carey by holding that JO6EPH ANDRIANO, the Republican nomi- nee who was elected, is ineligible, not be- ing a citizen of the United States. The English rule gives an office to the next highest candidate where enough votes to elect have been cast for a candi- date who is notoriously ineligible, and sonie American States do the same where the plurality of votes is cast for a dis- qualified candidate, whether his disquali- fication was notorious or not. A very de- cided weight of authority in this country, however, holds that, while a disqualified person cannot be elected, the majority cast for him is a proof that the people did not intend to elect the next highest candi- date, and that in such a case there has been no eleotion at all. The worst feature of this St. Joseph de- cision, however, is that the denial of AN- DRIANO’Ss citizenship is in utter contempt interpretation of the United States natu- ralization law. The St. Joseph judge holds that the provision which makes the minor children applied only to persons This isa wholly gratuitous and unsup- The law has been in- It is It is clearly as prospective and con- tinuous in intent and application as any naturalized by marrying a citizen husband; that the natural- of the husband naturalizes We have no doubt that the Supreme But in the meantime it THE WRONG MEN.

The act was passed under a pressure of public opinion and against the opposition of corporations. The enforcement of it should be kept free from corporation interference. —— TRAIN robbery is becoming more and more frequent where an open and thinly settled country favors the escape of the very small party of robbers required to do the deed. The ease and safety with which it can be done in any part of a wide stretch of country traversed by our railroads has been demonstrated so often that the only wonder is that 60 few enterprising desperadoes avail themselves of the tempting opportuni- ties offered them every day in the year. Twoor three masked men and the sound of a few pistol shots suffice to pre- vent any show of resistance on the part ot trainmen or passengers, no matter how numerous or how well armed they may be in comparison with their assailants. The passengers not knowing each other, each one feels that he is practically alone in the affair, and most of them have so little to lose that they do not feel called upon to take @ leading part in what, for aught they know, may be a desperate = Cv tn yes eee . ‘road debt. Yet, without knowing what case, however, unless the execution of the treaty depends upon the enactment of supporting legislation with the consent of the House; in which case such consent may be withheld.

Ir is dificult to realize that eminent statesmen such as compose the Senate Judiciary Committee could be induced to report such @ bill as those gentlemen re- ported for the funding of the Pacifico Rail- they were doing, they did propose a bill which, as Secretary MANNING and Actuary ELLioTT have demonstrated, would hare robbed the Government of the en- tire principal and eleven-twelfths of the interest of the Pacific Railroad loan. Not only this, but it contained a provision under which the corporations, by borrowing money and anticipating the payments, could have made themselves creditors instead of debtors, and com- pelled the Government to pay back to them all of the money and a good deal more besides! What is Boston culture worth, when one of its chosen rep- resentatives and brightest exponents, Senator Hoar, can propose and advocate such a measure? Why, even SPRINGER and other representatives of the wild and un- tutored West exposed the miscalculation of this bill as soon as it was published. BW Tur President aud Senate have ex- tended for seven years longer that Ha- waiian treaty which is nothing but an act to divert several millions of sugar duties from the Treasury of the United States to the coffers of CLaus SPRECKELS’ Sandwich Islands sugar monopoly. As this is a meas- ure affecting the revenues, some members of the House are disposed to deny the constitutional power of the Presi- dent and Senate to amend or annw our oustoms laws by treaty, without the consent of that body which has the sole power to originate revenue bills. The House can do nothing in such a — —ꝓ—ĩ—— — — — A CONTEST of reprisals tending rapidly It is to be hoped, therefore, that the power To compel us to choose and that of 1818, Canada is exercising her extreme rights under the latterin a way to make it as damaging to us as possible, But a fair system of reciprocity would be better for both to them as neighbors and kindred peoples. — — — — Evanrs' queer and much-muddled argu- ment against the constitutional power of Congress to pass any law regulating trans- portation between the States evoked from one of his Republican colleagues, RippiE- BERGER, the remark that ‘‘Evarts is a **parrot who would cry one way or the ther just as his interests dictated.’’ This is a rough remark implying that EvARTS is subject to the ruling passion of lawyers, and was only angling for a big retainer when he made that speech. But the railroads will think twice before they invest largely in his ability to reverse a Supreme Court decision which has stood unquestioned ever since it was delivered by the great Chief Justice MARSHALL more than half a century ago. en —,, _ BeErore trying to get rid of BouLaNGER it would be well for the French to get a better manin his place. His reputation is altogether military, and a military reputation is a dangerous menace to a re- publio. But the danger which threatens France from without cannot be over- looked. It would be little less than sui- cide for France to allow her War Depart- ment to fall again into weak and incom- petent hands te have the service confused by conflicts of authority, and to exhibit any weakness, which would be seized on by Germany as its great opportunity. Until all prospect of a war with Germany has passed away Gen. KovutanGcER is too valuable a man to be spared. - SENaTOR FaRWELL has just been elected and has not yet been sworn in, butalready he has disgusted one of his leading sup- porters, the Chicago Tribune, by deolar- ing himself in favor of taking the duties off sugar and paying liberal bounties to American ship-builders and liberal sub- sidies to American ships for alleged mail service. As a millionaire and a Repub- lican, Mr. Farwext. was doubly committed to the policy of paying bounties and sub- sidies to capitalists and corporations. That is the Republican and millionaire method of fostering home interests and protecting American labor. f Tun news that the St. Louls, Arkansas & Texas Road will reach St. Louis by the west side of the Missouri River is weloome has delayed the improvemat of a natu- rally rich section of the cuntry, and the addition of another railroad to those which feed the commerce of St. Iouis means an increase in business ani importance. Louis now is the bridge quetion, and the difficulty from this source is so small and the interests involved in cvercoming that difficulty are so kreat thit it is not un- reasonable to hope that the bridge charge atplished. From the Chicago Tribune. | The interstate commerce bill will not ad- vance through rates, divert traffic to the OCana- dian lines, destroy the export trade, or lead to the appearance of ‘‘gorgons, bydras and chimeras dire.“ It will, howeyer, cause & lowering and equakzation of railroad tariffs which will benefit me general public. The bill may incidentally squeeze a good deal of water out of the stocks of some of the lines. It will stop discrimimtion between persons and places and prevent building up one town and pulling down ajother, and fostering monopo- ilies like the Standard Ol Company with special revate), It will do away with the abuses of the pooling system, differentials, arbitraries, d¥criminations, and the freeze- out system gnerally. It will restrict the railroads to ths business of common carriers and deprive them of sovereignty over trade and industry. The bill is the most important measure adapted in Congress for twenty years, and the railroad carriers will do well to interpret it falrly and abide by its provisions in good faith. Secialists, Anarchists and Positivists. From s Lecture by Frederick Harrison. When socialists of the type of Mr. Henry George or of Karl Marx strove to prove that the land ofa country or the machinery and factories were all by rights the property of so- clety, not of individuals, and should all be ad- ministered in the name of and for the benefit of society, the Positivist objection was that they didnot go half far enough. Why stop short at land, railways, machinery and fac- tories? All products, movable or immovabie, lands, houses, furniture, food, even clothes and tools, were all equally products of soci- ety, and should all be enjoyed or used in the name of society and to the benefit of society. The Positivists, who professed the only com- plete, consistent and practicable socialism, were the only Socialists who vere not afraid ot their own doctrines; for even the noisiest anarchistat an open-air meeting thought he had a right of property in his own boote and his own shirt, to say nothing of his own tongue. A Mere Bagatelle. From the Chicago Tribune. Not in the history of the United States, sel- dom in the history ot any country in the world, has there beer 60 great and shameful a swindle against the people as that revealed recently in connection with the Pacific rail- roads. The operators of those corporations are brazen in cheir audacity, seemingly feel- ing assured of immunity no matter how openly they swindle the people and cheat the law. One of them, speaking a few days ago about the disbursement of $2,000,000, of which 8800, 000 at least should have been paid into the United States Treasury, remarked after the manner of a modern Robin Hood, ‘‘Why, that is a mere bagatelie!’’ and Degan to sneer at a Congressman who a few yoars ago accused him and his associates of having robbed the United States of $160,000, 000.

What the Editors of the New York Journals Are Saying this Morning. By Telegravh to the Pust-DIsPaTcH. New York, January 2%4.—The WORLD says: „„The Republican Senate and the Demooratio House have passed the interstate commerce bill by overwhelming major'ties, despite the strong efforts of the powerful railroad lobby and the protests of the railroads’ press. The W ORLD’s exposure of the methods pursued by the Pacific Railroad corporations to affect Governmental action stopped the passage of the unjust funding bill and helped to compel the adoption by the House of the concurrent resolution to investigate those corporations, A few wecks ago a United States Circuit Judge in Illinois took Jay Gould by the throat and decided a railroad case without considering the wishes or studying the interest of the man of millions and monopoly. Last November Henry George ran for Mayor of this city in op- position to the practices of corporations and political machines. He received nearly 70,000 votes, distanced one great political organiza- tion and dismayed the other. Surely, if the people are already aroused against the meth- ods of the lobby kings and party dictators, thelr indignation will not be cooled by the election of men like Stewart, Hearst, Stock- bridge, Farwell, Quay and Sawyer to the United States Senate and the defeat of such candidates as Van Wyck.’’ THE SUN. The Sun says: A bill which is by no means sure of becoming a law is the one introduced into the House by Mr. Oates to provide each Representative with a rk, whose sulary of $100 a month shall be pal ut ot the Treasury.

The Times says: The 1— of a noisy and excited delegation of mess men dis- puting over the interpretation of the tariff on wool ‘waste’ with manufacturers en on each side, and with equal earnestness, is an edifying one for protectionists. One set of promoters of native industry demand a high duty, the other a low one. For which is pro- tection intended? Whichever class it was meant for it is plain that those who ask for cheaper raw material are most entitied to con- sideration. They are just as American as the others; they are as much employers of labor as the others; and — only ask tor an oppor - tunity to make and sell their goods cheap to the advantage of all concerned, while the others ask thatthe consumer be taxed for the whole profit.’’ E TRIBUNE. The Tribune says: ‘‘The facts in another column as to the deterioration of the Indian school force are stated by a trustworthy ob- server after a personal examination of many N during the last summer and autumn. is is only one more instance of the demor- alization of the public service conducted with the central purpose of satiating the appetites of hungry camp followers by an Administra- tion which advertises itself as singularly un- selfish and eager for reform.

A Plain Statement of the Corruption and Fraud Which the State and Federal Grand- Juries Should Iavestigate at Once Leads that Promise to Develop the Gi- gantic Scheme of Managing Elections in This City. To the State Grand-jury, which reassembied to-day in the Criminal Court, andto the Fed- eral Grand-jury, which will meet to-morrow morning in the United States Court, the For- DISPATCH presents an opening statement of the case of the People vs. The Ringsters. The proof of the allegations can easily be procured by either jury. The statutory end- of 1883 contained provisions which transfer the entire conduct of elections to the Recorder of Voters.” Under these pro- visions the last election was held. Every detail of these arrangements invites investiga- tion. The first point of inquiry should be on the appointment of the Board of Revisers to ascertain how the spirit ofthe law was com- plied with in this particular. Besides this, cer- tain qualifications are required of the Revisers under the laws, which make some effort to surround the election with a few safeguards, It is charged that these qualifications were not possessed by ali the appointees of the Recorder of Voters. If they did not, then they were wrongfully appointed. Prior to the appointment of the Board of Revisers and their deputies, the Recorder of Voters appointed deputy registrars, who work - edinthe wards. These deputies were furnished with two books each for registering voters. Every book bears the oath, which the register- ing voters must take, leaving no excuse for the errors in the performance of the work, tint giving grounds for serious charges. The books of several of these deputy registers show that names were fraudulently entered and that forgeries were unquestionably com- mitted. In the First Ward 151 forged names were entered on the books. When and by whom these forgeries were com- mitted are subjects for investigation by the State Grand-jury. Whether these are al names of real persons can be ascertained within six hours. Any number of special om .- cers of the Police Department can be had to do the work of locating the parties whose names were forged, if they really exist. The names and addresses as they appear on the books have all been correctly published in the PoOSsT- DIsPaATOH. Athorough examination of the registration of this ward will disclose more extensive frauds. The United States Supervisors who canvassed the ward found and reported that some of the registrations on the books were from vacant lots, and that others were from hotels at which the parties never lived as far as could be ascertained. This will be the first great work of the Grand-juries on undertaking an inquiry. To place the responsibility of these forgeries and fraudulent registrations will be a work which every honest voter will watch with interest. In the Second Ward fraud of just as startling nature has been discovered and presented. From two numbers on North Levee twenty fraud- ulent voters, bired for the purpose, per- jured themselves at the office of the Recorder of Voters to secure reégis- tration to which they were not en- titled, and in some mysterious way these fraudulent registrations were kept on the books when the fraud was apparent on the slightest investigation. This is only a single instance. The crooked registration of this ward does not, however, compare with the corrupt work done in the revision registra- tion. In all 608 names were stricken from the lists. Of this number only 117 were stricken off during the first nine days of the session and on the last day 486 were stricken from the lists and no notice given until 4 p. m. Monday, leaving the voters altogether not more than eight hours to be reinstated on the books from which many of them had been wrongfully stricken. In the Fourth Ward nearly 200 forgeries were committed on the registration books. Of these the names and addresses have been published in these col- umns, In the Tenth Ward nearly 100 false entries appear on the registration books, while the corrupt work done in the revision is unequaled in all the other wards taken together. In this ward 1,135 voters were disfranchised in one day, An examination of the books in the Gay street precincts shows that in some instances nearly every colored voter in a block was stricken from the registration lists. The evidence to show that no inquiry was made at the housés of those disfranchised voters is abundant. In one instance the pastor of the Wash Street Church, whose name appeared stricken off as not found, though he is known to every man, woman and child in the neigh- borhood. In the Twelfth Ward a large number of names were forged on the registration lists, while the names of dead men and non-resi- dents were carried. In the Twentieth and Twenty-eighth Wards the books show the same state of affairs. These facts have been laid bare in the in- vestigation made dy the PosT-DIsPaTOoHR. In addition to this the evidence showing that as least in the Tenth Ward ‘‘repeaters’’ were systematically voted on election day hasbeen presented. Several citizens in the Third Ward found that their names had been voted on election day when they attempted to cast their ballots. Numerous instances of matvidual complaints have been presented, showing how the com- plainants were made the victims of fraud. These facts are respectfully submitted to the consideration of the Grand-jurors. “THE MIKADO. Presentation of the Upera at the Germania Club Next Saturday Night.

Tony Hart is 2 and wins an audience at once. e bas more natural pleas- ing qualities than any of the Irish comedians, and as a poor but — ee ne young Irish entieman was capital. His voice was husky t night, but his songs were well sung and were pleasing, the audience encoring every one them. T.J. Cronin made lots of fun as Tatther Jac Walsh, and was clever throughout. J. F. Hagan as Squire Murphy, F. E. Smith as Tim Bradley, were satisfactory. Miss Belle Stokes made a mild Kate O'Grady, and Miss Carrie Tutien was spirited as Nelly, singing a pretty song in the last act which was encored half a- dosen times. There isan ante-climax in the last act of the play which should be corrected, The audience was enthusiastic and seemed to enjoy the performance immensely. Pete Baker without his former associate Far- ron and with a company of his own opened in his familiar character of Chris in Chris and Lena Miss Emily Vivian wes the Lena, and avery bright and entertaining one, while he was supported by John Kernell as Tim Fla- herty, pretty Miss Vivia Walters as Lucy Faller anda fair company throughout. The musical comedy went with plenty of das and Chris kept the house roaring with his songs and antics. The piece is full of songs which are given by Baker, Miss Vivian, John Kernelil and the Chris and Lena quartette, every one of which pleased tne audience. * = The Standard was filledas usual last night forthe opening performance of ‘‘The Proper Caper,’’ the Jas.

MISSOURI LEGISLATURE, Shelton’s Local Option Substitate—The Wal- ker Investigation—Legislative Proceedings. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPatTcr. JEFFERSON City, Mo., January 24.—In the House this morning Chairman Nat Shelton of the Committee on Criminal Jurisprudence introduced a substitute, recommended by the committee, for Dr. Newberry’s local option measure. The bill provides that the question of issuing dramshop licenses shall, upon ap- plication or petition of one-tenth of the quali- fied voters, be submitted to a vote at any regular county election, cities of over 1,500 iInhabitante to vote independent of the county in which they are situated. A majority vote on the question shall not be disturbed at any election within two years after the date of the first decision of the voters. The penalty for infringmentof the drams law is fixed in the Dill at a fine of not less than $100 or more than $1,000.

Preventing the Spread of Disease. The health report of last week shows that there were fifteen deaths from diphtheria and nineteen new cases the previous week. With our present knowledge of contagious diseases it becomes the duty of the houge- holder to employ every known means to pre- vent the spread of these diseases when they first make their appearance. Thorough disinfection is most important to accomplish this end and we would therefore strongly urge all occupants of our houses to see that every pipe, which may be the means of dis- seminating disease, be thoroughly rinsed with Piatt’s Chiorides. Piatt’s disinfectant is an odoriess solution, containing wonderful disin- fecting and deodorizing properties and im- mediately destroys offensive odors that may or may not contain the germs of diseases.

A slight — nye town. however, explodes ar thatthe railroad companies cannot afford to disband and act independently regarding competitive traffic, ned from pooling earnings or not. It will at once be apparent to the thoughtful mind that the expenses of the associations named, which presumably mage and $30,000 to $200,000 annually each, are not incurred in simply dividing up among each other the earnings on competitive traffic. If this alone were all that was re- quired of these officers, they would not need the army of clerks which at present are engaged, and probably 75 per cent of the cieri- staff of each could be digpensed with. In addition, howeyer, to thé division of earn- ings, the 1 offices compile elaborate statis- tics of the business covered, and without doubt these are of invaluable aid to the rail- his by reason of the fact that the companies thereby obtain an intelligent knowledge of their business.

The Undertaking of Chicago Cigarmakers —Strike of the Longshoremen, Oo, January %.—It is stated to-day that Chicago is soon to lose some of her best cigar-makers, and the two branches of the In- ternational Oigar Makers’ Union,some of their best leaders. When they leave they will go into a co-operative factory in New York city, which is expected to start up May 1, and which is to be a sort of training school for a great co-operative scheme. Some six years ago, co-operation was under considera- tion dy the central body of the Union, and a plan was finally adopted. To raise capital, each member of the Union has been paying into the general treasury five cents per month as his share of the oo operative dues. By May this sum will have reached $67,000, which they consider sufficient to start the en- terprise. Of this $60,000 ig to be used this year to buy a large ri to buy raw material. They expect to buy the entire plantation crop just as wholesalers now do. To run the facto- ry, fifty of the best men in the country are to be selected, and their support and extra capital to be used in the case of re Ng A will be the remaining $17,000 of the $67,000. The idea of the leaders in the movement, in case it proves successful, is, after a certain time, to take competent men and open up a co-operative factory in Chicago. Thie extension of their facto will be repeated as often as justified by the 8 made. One of the members of the Union, who is conversant with the plan, said they believed that in ten years the Union would have two-thirds of the trade ot the United States, and that in twenty years the Union co-operative shops would 2 every cigarmaker in the United States and provide the cigars used, and perhaps export them. The Longshoremen’s Strike. New YorE, January 24.—The longshoremen have made up their minds that they have got to fight hard in order to win the Old Dominion strike, and are preparing to doit. The Exec- utive Board of the Ocean Association will not say what course will be pursued, but from other sources it was learned yesterday that it has been definitely settled that action similar to that taken in the case of the French and Anchor Lines will be taken with all the other steamship lines who insist from any cause whatever, in handling Old Dominion freight. Some ot the more hopeful of the men believe that the r can be ar- ranged with the other companies without need of a general strike, but the majority think that in a few days the whole North River front will be tied up. A largely attended meeting of the East River longshoremen was held yesterday at No South street to discuss the Old Dominion strike. The feelin was strongly in sympathy with the strikers and a resolution was adopted promising them moral and financial aid. A strike was not ordered, but the men were granted the privilege of striking against any Une or vessel that handles Old Dominion freight, and the chances are that many of the East River longshoremen will de out on strike before long. uch of the time of the meeting esterday was taken up in the election of a each walker. The boycott on the Old Dominion Company in the South is being pushed and the Knights of Labor are refusing to trade with anybody who either sende or receives freight by that line. Police Superintendent Murray and Po- lice Commissioner Voight, as well as Police In- spector Byrnes, held a consultation at police headquarters yesterday and discussed the as- pect of the expected strike of the longshore- men to-day, with a view of making police arrangements to meet any trouble that might Capt. Gastiein of the steamboat squad will have eighty more men piaced at his dis- disposal to-day. Thie makes 150 extra men who will patrol the river front. of the men arise. Excitement at Coatesville, Pa. COATESVILLE, Pa., January 24.—The situa- tion of the strike at the iron -works of Charles Huston & Sons and Worth Bros. has assumed a different aspect during the past few days. On Saturday evening several Pinkerton de- tectives arrived and went to the works of Worth Bros., where itis expected an attempt will be made to resume to-day. When approached on the streets they pointed revolvers at the citizens, who attempted to speak to them. Every train is being watched closely to see that nobody comes to take the situations offered at tne mills. All day yesterday the streets were filled with men and an indignation — of the citizens was called at the Old Town Hall. That hall would not hold half the people and all went to Market Hall where 700 men cheered at the stirring speeches made by prominent citizens. Resolutions were adopted expressing great indignation at the course of Worth Brothers in hiring irresposibie parties to inflame the people of the borough and vi- cinity, and requesting the burgess and Coun- cil to appoint such officers as in their judgment they deem necessary to preserve the Pweg tay also requested the burgess to forbid any of the so-called de- tectives from appearing on the streets as o - cers of the law. One of the speakers de- nounced Pinkerton’s men as the offal of prisons, the scum of the cities and men who are too | to work if they get it. A boarding: house has been fitted up at the mill to accom- modate the black sheep. Bishop Ryan’s Pastoral Letter. The Rt. Rev. Stephen Ryan, Catholic Bishop of Buffalo, has written a very strong partoral letter which was read yesterday in all the churches of the diocese. Labor and capital, says the Bishop, ‘‘the working masses and moneyed ar may iook for eyen-handed and im treatment at the nends of God’s Church, a goe 3 n.

Sadie Hayes, Who Murdered Police Sergeant Jenks, Pleads Guilty, Sadie Hayes, the murderess of Police Ser- geant Jenks, this morning pleaded guilty to murder in the second degree and was sen- tenced to ninety-nine years in the Peni- tentiary, as it was stated she would in Saturday’s Post- DISPATCH. This wipes the case off the docket, and it only remains to de seen sentence. When arraigned in the Oriminal Oourt this morning she pyres cool and collected. Circuit Attorney Glover, stepping up to the rail and addressing the Court, said: ‘*Your Honor, I understand that Sadie Hayes desires to withdraw her piea of not guilty to murder in the first degree and plead guilty to murder in the second degree.’’ that your wish?’’ asked the Court, turn- ing to the black murderess. Tes, sir, was her reply. **Do you know what you are doing?’’ es, sir, she again lied. 1 understand, your Honor, that she is acting by advice of her attorney, and I recom- mend that she be sentenced to ninety-nine years in the Penitentiary.’’ The sentence was then passed upon her d the court, Sadie’s face wearing a sort of half scowlas the words were being pronounced. There was no trace of fear or emotion in her dusky faceand when the Judge concluded she was returned to jail halt smiling. THE ORIM E ORIME. On the afternoon of October 8, 1883, while Police Sergeant Jenks was patrolling his pre- cinct he noticed two negresses quarreling on the northwest corner of Eighth and Biddle streets. He hurried to the spot, and as he reached itone of the women, Sadie Hayes, who heid a revolver in her hand, wheeled around, pointed the revolver at his head and fired. The bullet went through the officer’s brain, and in | a few hours he wasacorpse. After the shoot- ing she ran, but was followed and arrested by Officer Condon at the point of a pistol, she pred drawn her weapon on him also. On April 5, 1884, after many delays, she was tried and convicted of murder in the urst degree. The Supreme Court, after affirming the case, afterward reconsidered it and reversed it on a slight technicality. Since then she has been anxious to plead guilty and take a life sen- tence, and as Oiroult Attorney Clover des- —— of ever being able to have her executed cause of her sex, he decided to accept a plea. Her action to-day has been expected foralongtime. Although Sadie bore avery bad reputation before she got into this trouble, she has been a model prisoner since her confinement in Jail, never giving the guards trouble ot any kind. The male negro prison- ers have worshipped her, and one of them, as a token of his love, cut off his finger sometime ago and sent it to her wrapped in paper. The gentieman who made this remarkable offering was Frank Lacy, a colored burglar, whois now serving a term in the Penitentiary. HE SHOT HIMSELF. A Wealthy Brewer Takes His Life on the Levee. The private watchman who has the beat in the vicinity of Rutger street and the Levee, while making his rounds about 10 o’ clock Sat urday night, discovered the body of a man lying at the northeast corner of the Cotton Compress Company’s building. By his side lay a pistol, and a wound in his forehead was evidence of the manner in which he died. The patrol wagon was sent for and the body removed tothe Morgue. The deceased was Ferdinand Hanny aged 57 years and nent brewer of Cape Girardeau, Mo. 6 came to this city on December 18 for treatment of what he feared was a foul disease. Dr. Richter of 1482 South Broadway, the physician to whom he went, told him that the disease from which he was suffering was not what he suspected, and Hanny went home again. On the 9th of the present month he came back again, however, hew symptoms having ain aroused his fears. Dr. Richter again told him that he was mistaken. He occupied a room near the doctor’s office and devoted himself entirely te medical treatment. He would not believe that his own opinion of bis ailment was not correct, and became very depressed. Saturday at 1 o’clock he left the doctor's office, and was not seen again until the 2 of his body. Deceased was a widower, an wealthy. USE the surest remedy for Catarrh—Dr. Sage’s North St. Louis.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., January %.—The In- diana Senatorship is as far from settlement as ever and there is no immediate prospect ofa change. The General Assembly metin joint convention at 12 o’cloch, and took one ballot, which resulted: Turple, 74; Harrison, 70; Allen, 4 All the members, with two exceptions, were present and votes. Mr. Worral, Democratic Representa- tive, is detained at home by sickness, and is paired with Mr. O’Brien, Republican. It is not known how much longer the four nds of Allen will continue to cast their votes for him, but it is considered certain that they will do so for several days yet, and the prospect for an election is no better than it was last week. It looks now eas though both parties had decided to leave the solution of the problem to time and circumstances. New Warrants. Charles Callahan is accused of stealing 50 cents from a street-car box.

The summer of the year 1862 was ™ 2 hot on the coast of North even did something to counter- act the more destructive heat of the civil war. Gen. Burnside had captured a long reach of the seaboard,and had estab- lished his headquarters at Newbern. No —— followed very soon, nor any storms |. of, but the army and the weather be ct fast getting into a high state of prep- aration for either kind of event. There were Union troops at Fort Macon and Morehead City, not many miles up the coast from Newbern, and much pay was due them. The mon — came down from the North in July,and a couple of paymasters re- ceived orders to go at once and deal it out to the men. Before the war a railway had been con- structed from Newbern to Morehead City. Its rails were still there, but all its rolling stock with the exception of one hand-car had gone into the interior of the State. The viaduct was only just wide enough to carry the rails, and much of its course was thr ha swamp whose dense bushes were now luxuriantly reaching out asif the meant to capture the before the en * the season. n —— his one hand- car at the disposal of the paymasters. He did so with the pleasant information that on the previous evening the busy Confed- erates had made a raid and had swept away all the pickets posted along the line of the railwa New pickets had been osted, he tol them, and their proposed i would be reasonab! safe. hat is, he said, uess you’re safe oem any Confeds, but if you don’t — through before dark I'd advise you to — etty prompt about answering any hail. he boys’ll all be awake this time. They won’t be slow about taking care of them- selves in the dark. Nota man of ’em wants to go to Wilmington just now, nor to Andersonville neither.’’ That warning made the paymaster shake his head, and grow in importance before the hand-car set out, for it was egy enough that it would be dark before he trip could be half made. Precisely how dark it would be, or why, was not as yet imagined by anybody. There were nine men huddled on that hand -car when it went. A sergeant and four soldiers were its motive power, guard and garrison. The writer of this story was there altogether asan adventurer. Two paymasters, with the rank of major, and one clerk were in charge of a black 9 — containing over 80,000 in greenbacks, to be scattered among the volunteers on the morrow. The air grew moreand more close and sultry, and just before night a sort of haze began to rise over the eastern horizon. That's it, Major,” said the Sergeant to one of the Jaymasters. We're going to hear from Cape Hatteras.” Storm coming?“ Rignt along. Twon't take it long to come. He was correct as to the time required by Cape Hatteras, or whatever was man- aging that storm. The sky rapidly grew black as ink, and darkness came with but moderate reference to the departing sun. Just before entering the denser thickets of the swamp, a picket was reached, and the officer in charge repeated the warning of the quartermaster. Be ready to answer right away. It’ll be pitch dark, and some of the boys are nervous after last night’s work. They’ll shoot quick.” That was tothe ser eant. but it was a paymaster who replied: Well, now, Captain. we didn’t say so, but we thought Sy = would be safer by night than by day emen have got to have the — Bows “Hope the Rebswon't ~~ then. Put her on Sergeant, bu sharp; the s most got here.” Re also was cor- — a the weather. In ten minutes more such a storm had arrived as was a credit to Cape Hatteras and the wholesea- coast of North Carolina. On rolled the hand-car, its n A — drenched with rain, that fell streams rather than in drops. The lightning flashed almost iucessantly, and the thun- der seemed to be rolling all over the swampt. Except where a streak of light- — cleft it, the darkness was like a solid wall, and there was neither headlight nor hand lantern provided for that hand-car. „Worst storm I ever saw,“ remarked the Sergeant, and one of the brace of men who were acting as motive power grunted back at him. It's the worst kind of storm, but you can’t see it It was a just correction of the statement made by the sergeant, but at that mo- ment a hoarse, deep, all but sepulchral voice from among the bushes and black- “= — ey right of the track commanded: ‘Halt „Stop her! Quick, boys!“ exclaimed the sergeant, and as the men changed in- stantly from motive power to brakes, he sprang from the car into water above his knees and waded forward to answer the hail and give the countersign. It was allin vain. Down came a double delugeof rain and thicker darkness. Then a vividness of blue electricity danced through the dripping bushes, and a great roar of thunder followed it, as if in search of the hidden “picket.” Neither rain, nor lightening, nor thunder, nor the anxious — ot the sergeant discovered m. There he was, or must have been, dead or alive, for he had said halt,“ but that was apparently all he had to say. The sergeant splashed his way back to the hand-car, using very strong language, and it was decided to go forward. „We're just as likely to be flred into, first, — remarked th aymaster’s they'd hit some el me — sure!“ ak @ of the paymasters agreed with — and one expressed his — ——— that the box containing the greenbacks was waterproof. That's more than Iam, “ said one of the soldiers. This “er rain’s got throug * roof. I can feel it trickle down insige 0 mo.

Then we * him say Come — beve!

The flerceness of the storm diminished, and then, with a grea * of wind from Cape Hatteras, it ceas More wind came and wy away theclouds. The moon came out gloriously, and at that ver moment the paymaster’s clerk exclaimed: „Quick, sergeant! They could see to shoot now!“ „Halt! Come along! Got em! Got em now! Bully! Better mount! Better mount!“ That was what it sounded like, but the ser eant exclaimed: Abraham Lincoln! If it doesn’t make five times that we've been halted by those Confederate frogs!’’ In half an hour more we were all safe in Morehead City, leaving the frogs to play jokes on some ody else. A GEORGIA HEROINE, Who Was This Brave Young Girl That Saved the Soldier’s Life? From the — Constitution. The night of August 6. 1884, a train loaded with wounded Confederate sol- diers left Atlanta on the Macon Road, The train was made up of ordinary bot and cattle cars and was destined for Ma con. The wounded, after having re ceived such surgical aid as could be ren dered atthe field hospitals, were pl as thickly as possible on the bare floors o the cars. In 3 instances, when th wounds were of serious character, the soldier’s clothing had necessarily been cut away by the = surgeons, who not a other garments to replace those clotted with blood and probably cut into strings, the soldier was placed aboard the cars with only a shirt or a pair of drawers on, as he happened to be wounded in the lower or upper limbs. I occupieds small space inoneof the cattle cars. [ had received a wound on the line that morning which necessitated the imme- diate amputation of a leg above the knee. I must have been unconscious at the time of being put aboard the train, as the first distinct rewl- lection I have was of being shaken up, % if by the starting of the train. I hall never forget the scene upon which wy 5 opened. A tallow candle at each end the car threw a fitful weird light over the ghastly spectacle. Men there wef wounded in every conceivable way—somé with shattered arms and legs; some with bloody stum of limbs; some with gaping wounds in their trunks; other with torn ‘and bandaged heads, and all with ghastly, pain-dis torted faces, and added to this the agonizing moans, prayers, and cries for “water |’ water!“ that rose above the dil and rattle of the train, gave one an im pression of the infernal regions, and I[ re call it now witha feeling of the greates horror. In strange contrast to these ghastly sur roundings, however, was the appearané of two female figures—an old or middle aged lady anda young girl of 15 or 1 Who were seatedona box or trunk jus between the doors inthe centre of thé car. I remember a cooling — surprise and at seeing em, although suffering tortures from my own wound 4 the time. Where they came from or what was their destination are matters of con- ecture, but Lalways su them t0 ave been refugees from the storm of shot and shell which Sherman’s guns wers hourly — upon the beautiful Gate City. They bore evidence of culture ant refinement, and their bearing was that of well-to-do ladies. But there they eat, surrounded by a sight that would make the stoutest heart quail.

Yesterday morning Rev. W. G. Eliot, D. D., ehanceBor of Washington University, died at Pass Christian, Miss. His demise — ata together unexpected. Dr. Eliot was 7 5 old, and for — months he had suffered from nervous prostration and general de- bility. He was under treatment at his home in this city for some time, but finding that he ae not improve, his phy daugbter and two of his sons. i tearnar very well, butafter his condition did not seem to improve. vaily. Saturday he w suddenly worse, and itwas evident tha the end was near, The final hour was one of greats ring. HIS LIFE. Dr. Wm. G. Eliot was born at New Bedford, Mass. August 5. 1811. His early education was obtained at his birth-place. Later he wont to Washington, D. O., where h ated from Columbia College and he up his career as astadent at Divinity College arvard. In 1834, he came to St. ulis an shortly after he was called to the charge of the Oburch of the Messiah. The congregation e 11 church on the corner of Fourth and Pine streets. Later it moved to Ninth and Olive, into the building since remodeled for use as a theater. In 184 Washington University was established inthis city, and Dr. Eliot was elected ite first President. What time he could spare from the duties of his pastorate he devoted to the interests of this institution, nder bis care it grew and flourished. In 1878 Dr. Eliot resigned the pastorate of the Church ofthe Messiahto Dr. John Sny- der, and accepted the position of Chancellor of the 2 This position he has filled more or less actively ever since. HIS FAMILY. In 1837 Dr. Eliot married Miss Abbie Cramch ot Washington. daughter of Wm. Cramch, Judge of the United States Circuit Court. Mrs. Eliot is still living, as are five children, Rose, Thomas, ristopher, Henry and Edward. The second is pastor of the First Unitarian Church of Portiand, Ore., the third of the Unitarian Churoh of Dorchester, Mass. The other three are residents of this city. Most of his family were with Dr. Eliot at the time of his death. THE FUNERAL. The funeral will probably occur on Thurs- day morning. On advices from Pass Christian, le., where he died, to the effect that the ody would arrive Wednesday morning on the Iron Mountain at 6:20 o’clock, the family at fret decided to have the funeral ser- vices on Wednesday afternoen, but on consultation with the undertaker they later decided to wait until the arrival of the remains before fixing the time of inter- ment. Other details are also undecided upon; but itis probable the funeral services will be held in the Oharch of the Messiah, with which Unitarian.’ Society Dr. Eliot was once connected.as minister, and with which also he had ever since affiliated. On the arrival of the bod vit will be taken to the late residence, Washington avenue. The burial will be in Bellefontaine. ARE YOU GOING TO BUY DIAMONDS?

At o’olock p. m., the omicers of the order and members of the vari- ous iodges began to assemble and the im- mene ball was soon a mass of black bumanit and the adjoining streets were crowde with carriages and people.

The Secret Policy Pursued by the Maroons— Battles that Sullivan Has Won— The Champion’s Arm — Indianapolis as a Tenth Club — Bicycle News — Base Ball Chat—Sporting Gossip. From the turn which the aftairs of the St. Louis League Club have taken within the past two days developments of a more or less startling nature may be looked for. The In- dianapolis enthusiasts were, after all, not in pursuit of a shadow, but evidently were deal- ing with real flesh and blood, and flesh and blood, too, which had something au- thoritative to say in reference to the sale of the Maroons’ franchise. The facts with which Warren F. McChesney’s name was connected were misstated inasmuch as he has no mortgage on the Maroons’ prop- erty, but was merely acting in the capacity of an agent. It is said that his instruc- tions were derived from Mr. Thom- As A. Russell, the attorney of the club, and that as ‘‘cofdential’’ agent he felt reluctant to talk on the subject, and even went so far astodenyin toto all connection with the affair in any capacity. Since the truth, however, has come out, McOhbesney no longer denies with his quasi-impenetrable expression of face, but changes the subject to gas stock when it is mentioned tohim. Mr, Russell himself has become quite Spaldling- like since associating with base-ball kings, and to a reporter for the PosT-DISPATCH, who attempted to obtain particulars from him to- day, he refused to talk definitely. He was found closeted in his private office with Mi. Stromberg, the President of the club, and the two were induiging in somewhat earnest conversation. „Mr. Russell, was the question, ‘‘isit true that you are in a scheme te sell the Maroons?’’ ‘*I won’t say a word about it. I don’t know anything about base ball at all. Now, ifyou were to ask me about publie schools I —’’ * ee was McOhesney’s offer to Indianap- olis?’ „ tell you I’m not going to say a word about base ball. Ask me something about law.’’ Are the negotiations at an end?’’ Now, see here, I've got nothing to sa you can’t make me say anything. Good day. And the new acquisition to the base ball world re-entered his sanctum to Mr. Strom- berg and closed the door after him. Mr. John W. O'Connell, who, with Messrs. Russell and Stromberg, is and bas been the leading spirit in the actions of the St. Louis Athletic Association since its — ot hands, says that it is disgusted with base ball and particularly with late develop ments, and that it is his positive intention to withdraw from all connection with it. In fact that he has practically done so now. A well- known stockholder in the club informed a POST-DISPATCH reporter to-day that while he did not believe that any definite arrangements had yet been made with India- napolis, the franchise of the Association fora League base ball club in this city Is, like Denny, on the market and can be bought for a certain price. He also stated that it could have been purchased by the Indianapolis syn- dicate if that body of men had had enthusiasm and energy sufficient to raise the necessary sum. One thing is certain, and thatis, that if the Maroons really contemplate remaining in the League next year, the policy of secrecy they have been pursuing of late will do much to harm them, instead, as they imagine, of tend- ing to do them good and bolster them up in the eyes of the world. and INDIANAPOLIS. It Now Hopes to Get Into the League as a Tenth Club. The base ball outlook for this city, though somewhat ciouded for a time by the unsuo- cessful effort to obtain the St. Louis franchise, is now considerably brightened,’’ remarks the Indianapolis Journal, ‘‘The application of tnis city for membership in the National League is on flle, and it is definitely understood that action will be taken upon it by that body at an early day. It is a fact, too, that the St. uls Maroons must eventually sell their fran- chise or relinquish their membersbipin the League. asthe club is not only handicapped by the St. Louis Browns, Von der Ahe’s club, but has not the sufficient financial support to warrant ite continuance. Last season an ar- rangement was entered into by the American Association aod the National League that in cities where clubs of both these organizations were located there should be no Sunday ball playing, and that the two clubs should not play separate games in those cities on the same day. hese regulations also gave the preference to the Association clubs, inasmuch as when the two clubs did play on the same day, it was agreed that it should not be done within a radius of four miles of each other, the Associatiou clubs being allowed to play in the city. The whole negotiations and the exorbitant prices demand by the St. Louis Club are considered as merely a game of bluff by the Indianapolitans, and they think that as the club must necessarily relin- quish its League membership, the whole affair, including the players, will be transferred tothem. They also have the as- Ssurances of responsible members of the League that 28 are willing to aid Indianapo- lis in entering the League and want it to come in with ali possible strength. No such arrangement as theone indicated was made last year, and the four-mile-radius rule applies in an altogether different way than the Journal states. Base Bali Briefs.

Will Be Fighting in Six Weeks. Dr. Lewis A. Sayre of New York has been in- terviewed on Sullivan’sarm. ‘‘You know, he said, that I hold somewhat different views on fractures of the bones than those held by the profession generally.

The Slugger’s Wife. ‘*I see,’ says Mrs. John L. Sullivan, ‘‘that Sullivan sags he has a broken arm and cannot fight. Itisalla lie. I know his old dodges, and thisisoneof them. Patsey Cardiff was too much for him, and he invented the lame arm idea to save himself from a big whipping. I remember one time when he met Mitchell he told me that the Englishman would have done him up in one more round. That is John L. Sullivan all over. He — at a man at the start and usually fin- shes him in the first or second round, or makes himunabie to do much fighting. If he fails to use his enemy up at the end of three rounds Sullivan grows scared, loses his wind and cries baby, the way he did m Minne- apolis. I tell you that Patsy Cardiff can whip John L., and I am glad of it. He is a big brute and a coward.’’ — — AMONG THE BOWLERS. The Lyons Win a Match—Individual Scores— The Championship.

After this Mr. Wood id not care to make the trial, as he thought his Hartford performance of 233 was sufficient to show that he could do stiil better, 2:30 at least. In spite of this, Woodside was forced by the terms of his contract to obey his employers, make the pace and allow Wood to win on the condition that he should receive half the money that went to the winner of the fastest trial heat. Woodside did not receive the money, however, and asked for it, but his employers’ gave him no satisfaction. The re- sult in the Wood-Rowe race showed that the expectations in the former were not at all justi- fled, and every one knows whatafarce the heat was, which was run in over three minutos, and both men were fined.

The ice inthe river broke yesterday at the foot of Lesperance street and moved down 600 yards without doing any damage. This was followed later by a break at the bridge and the movement of the mass down as far as Pine street. The Dacotah was shoved up on the bank, but pulled off by the Elon G. Smith without damage. The harbor-boat, with the aid of dynamite, has opened up a passage from Carondelet to East Carondelet and it is perfectly free of ce. This morning at 9 o’clock considerable ex- citement was caused by another movement of the ice above the bridge, which started and closed up the gap of 40 rods immediately be- low that structure. No damage was done. The wharf-boat of the Northern Line Packct Company was pushed up on the levee. The harbor-boat corrected this in a short time. There is but little shipping in the har- bor and aside from the damage fe may inflict upon the wharf-boats but little if any wreck- ing will occur when gorge really starts. The Dacotah lies at the foot of Vine street. Four Mississippi Vai- ley Transportation barges an one Huse, Loomis & Co. ice barge are at the foot of Elm street. Three ferry-boats are at Spruce street and four are tied immediately opposite on the Illinois side. Three tugs, the Alma, Katie M., and Gartside, belonging to the Con- solidated Coal Company, are also atthe Spruce street landing. The Anchor Line boat, City of St. Louis, and the tow-boat Dolphin, are at Poplar street. Between there and Lesperance street there are only the car transfer steamers.
