IN CHICAGO IN A SECOND DEFENDANT ss DIVORCE SUIT. pplicatt on for Alimony—The Judge Bowman to Pay $100 Attorneys’ Fee and 615 Per Week to the Plaintiff An Interesting Telegram and Two Peculiar Letters of Defendant Read in Court—Suit of ida M. Bowman —A Cu- rious Case. By Telegraph to the Post-DtsPaTcH. OAO, II., February 15.—A pretty woman, with a clear, smooth complexion, decked with bright eyes and lips of the bright- est ruby, sat in Judge Tuley’s Court to- day, the most innocent observer ot the legal proceeding and unconscious of the many eyes upon her. Her dress was rich; on her head was a love ofa bonnet, while a fine peal sacque was thrown back from her ghoulders owing to the warmth of the room. IT WAS MRS. IDA. BOWMAN, the alleged wife of Frank J. Bowman, the well known lawyer of St. Louis. A motion was made by her attorneys, Case, Hogan & Case, against Mr. Bowman for alimony pendente lite. She commenced proceedings for divorce against him about six weeks ago, claiming a common law mar- e, Affidavits were read by the law- yer for the defense, claiming that Bow- man never married Ida, but lived with her as his mistress while living with his first wife, that after bis divorce from No. lon June 28 he was married to Estelle Piatt in September, 1886. Several affidavits were pre- sented to show that the marriage with Miss Piatt was a bona fide one. ATTORNEY THEODORE CASE read an affidavit from the plaintiff that the di- vorce spoken of was in reality given June 2, and that Bowman at once came to Chicago, and on June 27 married her before a witness at 203 Webster avenue, saying he was opposed to other cere- monies. At his request she remained in Chi- cago. Several letters and telegrams were offered in evidence, among which was a dis- patch as follows, announcing the divorce: A TELEGRAM. HAMMOND, La., June 24. Mrs. Ida M. Bowman, 203 Webster Avenue, Chi- cago, IM.. My case decided; decree granted; expect me Sunday a. m. FRANE. FREE. This was followed by a letter dated New Or- leans, June 24, 1886, and addressed the same asthe telegram. It read: My DEAR Ipa—Free! Free! Free! Free! I am hastening to St. Louis to finish up my business there. Idonotexpect to have any trouble; before leaving I put up the securities agreed upon and which she is to take in full satisfaction of the Judgment rendered for alimony. It is in writing and 1 hardly think they will try to avoid it.

LABOR NEWS. Striking Longshoremen Asking for Work— Timbermen Striking—&malli Comfort. New York, February 15.—The business of the steamship and railroad companies on the piers along the river front has assumed its normal condition, and freight is being moved as systematically as before the big strike. Many of the old hanas had got back to work, and the Italians who took thé places of the strikers are now accustomed to the work, and the agents say they are asserviceable as the old men: The men now acknowledge they were badly beaten, and some of them are se- vere in their denunciation of the action of their leaders. Resuming Work. WORCESTER, Mass., February 15.—The prin- cipal boot and shoe manufacturers at Spencer gave notice to their striking workmen a few days ago that they would open for business to-day. Yesterday the whisties blew and a few operatives went in at a couple of the shops. Later in the day 2,000 strikers marched ina body to their shops and took away their tools. > Timbermen Strike. NORWAY, Mich., February 15.—Eighty tim- bermen struck yesterday at the Vulcan mine, owned by the Penn Mining Company for $2 a day, their present wages being from $1.65 to $1.80. The company refused to make an concessions, and the men were paid off. general strike is feared. Small Comfort. SovutTH Aunor, N. J., February 15.—A com- mittee of the striking coal-handlers here called upon the agents of the Commercial Company and asked upon what terms they would be restored. They were told that when they were wanted the agents would send for them, and that the new men would not be Gischarged. Special deputies are still guard- ing the docks. Refused Work. Jersey City, N. J., February 15.—The strik- ing coal-handlers and longshoremen at the various towns along the New Jersey shore, in this vicinity, have been refused work by the companies, who are working the usual com- plement of non-union men. LESTER VS. BUTLER. General Continues His Severe Cross- Examination of the Plaintiff. New YorK, February 15.—The case of J. H. Lester against Gen. Benjamin F. Butler. was continued to-day in the United States Circuit Court before Judge Coxe. Lester's cross - exam- ination by Gen. Butler proceeded. The rattle which Lester’s counsel stated that he had made in prison, Lester said that he made two years ago, andthe one which his wife recog- nized while he was in jail and which was the means by which she knew that he was alive wassimilar to this. A letter from Lester to his wife on military matters was placed in evi- dence. It was dated April 25, 1861. Another letter was produced, which was taken from his wife’strunk. In it the writer asked for circu- lars, and advised him to go in hot for secession. The answer was to be sent to Miss Dupree, Raleigh, North Carolina. A circular from the Union Manufacturing Company, with which Lester was connected, was reud. It was an advertisment of the machine to be used in making arms. It solicited orders from the Southern troops and said thatthe company was ready to he age 4 any numberof arms. After Gen. Butler ad read the eircular, Lester asked to make an explanation. He said he was Superintendent of the Union Manufac- turing Company, and that he never wasa foreman in Colt’s Armory, but that the fore- man referred to was a Mac West. The NEARLY A MILLION, RAILWAY REGULATION. JUDGE PORTIS TALKS ABOUT THE PRO- POSED STATE LAW. * The Measure Not Much More Restrictive Than Existing Legislation—An Essential Objection to This and the Interstate Com- merce Law— Nickel- Plate Mortgages — Iowa Pool Pereentages—Judge Shepard’s Decision of the New York, Chicago & St. Louis Railroad—N otes. The railroad men are so taken up with the interstate commerce law, which is now re- ceiving close attention from officials, that they pay little attention apparently to State legisia- tion. The law, therefore, which has been agreed upon for submission to the General Assembly has scarcely been regarded. The determina- tion seems to have been hit upon to let the Legislature try its hand at all the legislation it chooses to get up. Few opinions on the proposed law can be obtained, because no one has studied it care- fully with a view to discovering what effect it will have on transportation. JUDGE PORTIS, attorney for the Missouri Pacific, talked about the measure to a Post-DIsPATCH reporter to- day. ‘‘Ihave read the bill.“ said he, ‘‘ but not carefully, nor with a view to interpreting it, nor of deciding what effect it will have on the frailroads in the State. It is similar to the interstate commerce bill, and differs {rom that only in being fuller and in 1 the penalties for its violation more severe. It makes such acts felonious. As far as 1 am concerned 1 think nearly everything that is in the Dill is contained practically in existing legisiation, with the exception of the anti-pooling pro- vision. Discrimination is prohibited in exist- ing legislation and that included nearly everything forbidden matters of special rebates, long and hauls, large and small shipments are only phases of discrimination which are here set forthin de- tail. It is a declaration of the views of the people's representatives on the subject of transportation. These things come in waves. There have undoubtedly been abuses and the eople are led dy the press and the politicians to correct them. In doing it, unfortunately, they often go further than sound judgment dictates, and hardship ensues, but only for a time. These things work themselves out and adjust them- selvés to the laws of trade. „Do vou see any substantial objection to the bill?“ „As 1 tell you, I have not studied it with sufficient care to give a legal opinion. There may be provisions which will interfere with trade and trade must goon, Take the clause which places competing points on the same basis as other pointe. Take atown on the river for instance. We will suppose that there isa large amount of grain to be carried to this city. The shipper goes to the steamboat company and gets a rate, then he goes to the railroad company to get a cheaper rate and runs back and for- ward between them until he gets the low est he can get and ships the grain. IF THE BAILROAD CARRIES it for all it can possibly get in such a case and it happens to be less than the schedule rate why every shipment from every other point on the road at lesser distance where the rate is above this is liable to fine. And yet this road must reduce its rate or lose the business altogether. No legislation can stop the laws of trade any more than it can stop the Mississippi River. Ithink the law should be general, se- curing justice to all, and in the matter of rate a maximum reasonable rate should be fixed ae the railroads be allowed to work under that. But the chief objection Ihave to this Dill and to the interstate commerce bill ts that they are not just. In the case which I cited of a shipper running between two railroads or river and rail to secure alow rate, whose is the crime in this in- stance? Istherailroad any worse than the shipper? The oy «ted aids, abets and encour- ages the road to discriminate or to violate the law, and is equally guilty, or even more so, and yet under the law the _ shipper goes free. I believe that an abettor of crime should be punished andI think that these laws do not provide for this. This is to me an essential objection to them. have next their road the 2 mene ul have ot Pave to run out west of the Iron Mountain and come into the city in that way.

The Southwestern, Western and Northwest- ern associations meet in Chicago this week to discuss the interstate commerce bill. Several roads are rearranging their schedules in ac- cordance with the provisions of the law, and they will be submitted to the associa- tion. The Western roads will not have nearly as much work to do in this regard as the Eastern roads as their schedules are prac- tically based on distance in many instances. It is proposed to reduce the tariff from the through rate by fractions, rates which will comply with the law, but still retain profits on lo business. A BRUTAL MURDER. George Little, a Stranger, Killed by a Mur- derous Gang at Carthage. By Telegraph to the Post-DISsPATCH. CARTHAGE, Mo., February 15.—Last night a man named Geo. Little, living at Sarcoxie, ar- rived at this place qn the ’Frisco train at 10 o’clock. He walked uptown and left his grip at Joe Churth’s saloon. During his ramble, white waiting for the time to start for the midnight train for Kansas City on the Mis- souri Pacific, he encountered some men and, it is said, had a uarrel with them. He afterward went to Church’s saloon and took his grip at closing time, and Church walked several blocks with him. Some men were walking behind, and as the man was foully treated before he had gone an- other block, it is supposed he had been fol- lowed with criminal intent. He was struck on the right temple, and an ex- amination showed that the concussion burst the artery on the other side, which caused him to bieed to death. He was able to get up and walked about two blocks to the Karr Hotel, where he was cared for, and died this morning at 70’clock. This morning there is intense excitement over the affair. Three men named E. A. McMannis, Dave Osborn and James Belknap have been arrested and held to await further developments. The full inquiry will be instituted this afternoon. Last night several attempts were made to burglarize houses in different parts of the city. a ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE. The Senate and House Settle Down to Hard Work. By Telegraph to the PosT-DISPATCH. SPRINGFIELD, III., February 15.—The Senate to-day passed a bill providing for the election ofa chairman of Boards of Trustees of incor- porated towns and villages, and one exempt- ing homesteads from toreed sale. Tae bill amending the law for the suppression of con- tagious diseases among domestic animals falled to pass with an emergency clause, and was recommitted to the Committee on Agri- culture for further amendment. Bills were in- troduced as follows: By Mr. Beil: To @stablish banks of deposit, not to issue money. By Mr. Hili: Compelling railroad companies to run at least one unmixed passenger train each way daily. > THE HOUSE. In the House the bill appropria $45 ,000 to run the Soldiers“ Home fill Juli, 1887, was passed with an emeruency clause. Bills were introduced as follows: By Mr. Conway of Uoak: Taxing telegraph companies Fi for the first and cents per mile for each additional mile of wire. Mr. Faxon of Kendall: To prevent gam- bling in stocks, bonds and provisions. By Mr. Fisher-of Henry: To tax sieeping and dining cars, operated within the State. THEY PAID COSTS. A Number of Dealers Who Sold Venison Out — — RUMOBED CONSOLIDATION OF THE RAll- WAY INTERESTS AT THE CITY HALL. ——— roposed Improvements in the West End “oo — New Street Ralil- way to Tower Grove Park—Various Bills in the of the House of Dele- gates. The sighifieance ot the proposed reorganiza- tion of thé House of Delegates’. committets, which is promised for to-night, is the main topic at the City Hall. It is reported that a street oar ‘‘combine’’ is being perfected to defeat the elevated road bills by tacking on amendments in the Council, and thereby securing their return to the House, where, under the pew order of things, the bills will receive the death- blow in the reorganized committees. It 1s, however, recognized that the bills have strong backing and may go through the Council in their present shape. In this event the main object of the combination, as understood at the hall, will be defeated. The reported combination may have some con- nection with the coming elections to select six Councilmen and twenty-eight delegates. Even the municipal officers who are in daily contact with the members of the House do not pretend to understand the significance of the reorganization and the rumored combina- tion of street car men who individually have great influence in the Assembly. Proposed Improvements. At the regular meeting of the Board of Pub- lic Improvements, held this morning, Street Commissioner Turner present- ed the titles of ninety petitions for opening, grading and paving streets and alleys in various parts of the city. After discussing the petitions the Board decided to hear the advocates on March 8, next. The Street Commissioner also presented a plat of obstructions on Florissant avenue, between Hebert and Palm streets, and was ordered to request the Oity Counsellor to se that the obstructions complained of moved. An ordinance was and recommended appropriatin to lay water - pipes, etc., between the inter- section of King’s highway and Magnolia avenue to the Insane Asyium. A petition to improve Windsor place detween Van- deventer and St. Alphonsus was re- ceived and the Board consented to the proposed improvements on the condition that the property-holders will pay all expenses and damages and legal proceedings. The parties representing the property-holders were willing to agree to this, but wished to be rotected from excessive damage. Pending he decision the petition was referred to the Street Commissioner. A New Street Railroad. At noon to-day the Committee on Railroads of the House of Delegates met at the City Hall totake carriages and inspect the proposed route of the Merchants’ Exchange, Compton avenue & Tower Grove Street Railway. The incorporators ask for a franchise to runa street railway, beginning on the east side of Grand avenue at the intersection of Rappa- hannock street, thence with a double track east on Rappahannock to Compton avenue, Compton avenue to Russell avenue, east on Russeli avenue to California avenue, north on California avenue to Park avenue, east on Park avenue to Mississippi avenue, north on Mississippi avenue to Cbouteau ave- nue, east on Chouteau avenue over the tracks of the Lindell Railway Company to Tayon ave- nue, and then north over Tayon avenue bridge t Clark avenue, thence east on Ciark avenue to Thirteenth street, north to Market, east on Market over the Missouri Railway Company's tracks to Fourth street, east to Third street north to Chestnut, west to the west side of Sixth street, thence over the Missouri Railway tracks to Thirteenth street, thence south to Market, where the company’s double track will begin. The iutérests of the new company have been cared for in the House by Messrs. N. C. Hudson, Terry and Dr. Holland. Under the guidance of a committee of the incor- porators the Railroad Committee to-day drove over the proposed route. The bill is now be- fore the House Committee.

Comfort on the Defeat of the Militia Bill in the House—Probable Reor- ganization Under a City Ordinance—C. C. Rainwater and W. A. Hargadine Express ~ Themselves on the Defeat—General Dis- appointment. The defeat of the militia bill in the Lower House of the Missouri General Assembly was received with anything but enthusiasm by the members of the local regiment and the citizens who have given their time and moi ey to the assistance of the militia often disappointea before—the boys who wore the blue and the gentlemen who emptied their pockets. For years after each failure of the Legislature to pass a bill giving them some aid it has been said, ‘‘It is hard, but we’ll not stop trying yet;we’ll make another attempt. Prior to the meeting of the Legislature two years ago Gov. Marmaduke sent urgent orders to Col. E. D. Meier, then in command, to have two companies in readi- ness for transportation to Sedalia where rioters were expected to wreck the property of the Missouri Pacific Rallway Com- pany. Companies were gotten under arms at the Armory before dawn and left the Union Depot on a special train for the scene of possible excitement. The ,Governor did not think it wise to send them directiy to Sedalia, but stopped the train at Centertown, a locality where there was everything rural and suburban except things to eat. There for two weeks the company waited, and there the excitement at Sedalia and about there hav- ing subsided they were returned home. The Governor promised them compensation for their time, but no compensation has ever been received. The Legislature, which met not long after, failed to pass a bill — $85,000 tor the benefit of the militia establishment of the State after the members had been almost to a man pledged to vote forthe bill. The boys at the Armory „said then Ve WIII regign.’’ Gov. *| Marmaduke wrote to E. D. Meier and urged on him to prevent the dissolution of the St. Louis companies. The Colonel used all his influence and the men finally res@lved to try another two vears of play soldiering. The two years have seen a great deal of change in the local estab- ment, but there still remain nearly 500 men on the rolls and a fair corps of officers. Col. Meier resigned, and was suc- ceeded in command by Lieut.-Col. Buchanan, who last fall resigned and went to California. Maj. C. Comfort then assumed the command, and had the militia bill passed the present Legislature might have been elected Colonel, although he was urging Col. J. G. Butler and Col. C. P. Walbridge for the posi- tion. This afternoon MAJ. COMFORT said: 'I have called a meeting of officers for to-night, and have no doubt that most of them every trouble since the big strike of 1877; have gone every time and have given the State my timeand money. For all this the State does not care, and will not con- tinue in its service another day. other officers will do as 1 intend todo. Capt. Robert W. Goode called upon this morning. He has his resignation written out. Col. William Bull, Inspector-General of the State has written out his resignation. Capts. Cavendar, st. Clair, Wiegand, Skip- with and Cookson will resign, and I believe most of the lieutenants willl do the same. We are tired of work- ing for nothing. We have worked hard to build up a creditable militia here in St. Louis, and the merchants of the city have been very generous to us, but we cannot remain Senpeee under the State law without State a 1 * What will be done with the Armory build - ing if the militia disorganizes?’’ It is owned by trustees, and will be re- tained by them. If it is possible and the mer- chants desire it we shall probably attempt to organize four or five strong companies under an ordinance to be passed by the Municipal Assembly. If that can be done the merchants will probably conclude that the maintenance of such companies would be a cheap form of insurance against risks. Under our present enlistment we are liable to be called out and sent to any part of the State. If we re- organize it will be for strictly St. Louis serv- ice, as a sort ot police reserve. I don't know whether it can be done or not, but we will see. When C. C. RAINWATER wos told of the action of the House he stopped short, and his smiling face grew long. Well, that is ashame!’’ hesaid. ‘‘My advice now is to disband every company of wilitia in the State. lam through with it all. ou were in Jefferson City recently in the interest of the bill, were you not?’’ „I was there, but did not go especially for that. But while there went to see the committees of both houses and several members. The committees agreed to report the blil favorably and 1 was told by members that there would be no difficulty in passing the bill on the favorable reporting by these com- mittees. I left Jefferson City with the con- viction that the would pass. The citizens of St. Louis have given liberally to the militia establishment of the city. For three years we have had a committee organized for the purpose of raising and disbursing a sum suf. cient for the encouragement of the oun men who compose the companies. We Fave raised and distributed between 810, 000 and $15,000 each year, giving companies drilling twenty men so muc for each man present at each drill. But we have said that unless the present Legisluture did something for the militia of the State we would step, and stop Iwill. The State don’t deserve to have a militia.’’ W. A. HARGADINE, a ot Hargadine &. McKittrick, who was the chairman of the Citizens’ Committee, finance committee, said: The tall - ure of the House to pass bill is about the most senseless thin of. It is now time for the militia to disorgan- ize. If the State does not want it, what is the use of trying to keep it up? 1 virtually dissolved my connection with the committee last summer. We raised about 310, 000 altogether, I think, and I said then I mever would go around begging tor pooner again, that unless the State did some- thing I would have nothing more to do with the militia. Iwill not stir another foot for them, Mr. Hargadine was very em- phatic. ABOUT TOWN.

Strike in the Peerless—Granite Mountain - Higher—Mining Gossip. Lochiel was 20 cents bid. Trading in mining stocks to-day was light, only a few hundred shares changing hands on the floor. - — Small Ho was not traded in all day on Change. On the street it was quoted at $8.75 and $9. The sale of a lot of 200 shares at $9.25 was reported. | Bremen was in fair demand, and quotable at about $1.25. There were several large orders r market at $1, but they could not be Adams was quoted at about $2.40.

There were bids of $55 and $56 freely made early in the day and at 3 o’clock $37.50 was bid by brokers ‘for 100- share lots. Some very small lots sold at $60. A tel- egram received this afternoon gives the ship- ment for the week at forty-seven bars, $65,400; mill looking well. The shipment is larger than was expected. W. L. Wilson, Superintendent of the Ger- mania, and D. L. ine, late owner of the Queen of the West, left for Leadville last night. Mr. Racine had some time negotiating with parties for the sale of his mine, which with the assistance of Mr. Wilson he was success- ful in. Before his departure, Mr. Wilson was presented with a handsomely engraved gold watch by some of the Germania stockholders, asatoken of the appreciation of his services. J. Will Boyd received this morning from the Superintendent of the Peerless a telegram, saying: Struck two feet ore in upraise full of sul- phides.’’ This is the third strike of the same rich ore made within three weeks. None of the stock of the Peerless has been placed on this market. A majority of itis held by Gen. Jno. Boyle and J. Will Boyd. Mr. Boyd will return to Silver City in a few weeks to remain for the entire summer. THE STREET CAR TROUBLE, An Old Case Comes Up for Trial in the Criminal Court. A panel of forty-seven jurors is being se- lected in the Criminal Court to-day in the case of George Withrow, charged with obstructing a railroad track. This is one of the oid street car strike cases. Withrow is the man who turned State’s evidence against the other strikers at the preliminary examination of the cases in the Court of Criminal Correc- tion, and then refused to testify against one Withers when the latter was placed on trailin the Criminal Court. When placed on the stand he could not be made to tell any- thing. Withers was acquitted and the cases against him, which were to have been dis- missed, were reinstated. He ts charged in this case with conspiring with Withers to place dynamite on the track of the Washington avenue line near Eighteenth street and biow up a car. With- ers, whom he is charged with conspiring with, has already been acquitted of the offense of placing dynamite on the track. Withrow’s confession in the Court of Criminal Correction will be used against him in thiscase. Mr. Lodge is engaged with the Circuit Attorney in prosecuting the case, C, P. Johnson defend- ing the prisoner. Returned Short Weight. Charles Underwood, Walker Carroll and Jim Window, colored laborers employed by the cotton firm of A. A. Paton & Co., were Jailed to-day on a warrant charging them with grand iliarceny. The men had a system of returning false weight on baled samples which they sold for the house, and were detected in a transaction on February 10 when they returned the weight of a bale 542 pounds short. The difference in money amounted to $0. It ie impossible to say how long the men huve been carrying on the fraudulent work. A Sudden Death. Annie Butler, a colored woman employed at Annie Seeber’s disreputable house on North Thirteenth street, died suddenly this morning. She was at work when Mme.

LIAMENT OUTLINED. cial Panic at Cairo—Foreign News. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Lonpon, February 15.—From a conversation with Mr. ParnelliIam able to give you the following information respecting the attitude of the Irish party in the Commons, during this session. Mr. Parnell, him- self, I may premise, although he has been and is from well, has been assured by his physicians that he will be able to be in bis seat during the ses- sion, but when itis over it will be necessary for him to take a prolonged rest and change of air. The statement that has been fre- quently made here of late, that he is suffering from Bright’s disease is without foundation. First, he says, there will be no obstruction this year;that is, no deliberate and organized obstruction to measures. In general it is the intention ofthe Irish party to discuss the precedure FULLY AND FAIRLY, as they have done, with regard to questions already introduced but nothing more. At the same time they will probably oppose all Gov- erment proposals in regard to new procedure legislation, with the exception of one rule re- lating to Wednesdays, the details of which are merely of local interest. The Irish meme bers are convinced that there will be no land bill this session for the reason that there is to be coercion. The introduction ot coercion means the exclusion of land measure, either for England or Ireland. I am in a position to state that the Irish party regard with a friendly eye the various endeavors towards Liberal re-union that have been made, seeing in the Commons a majority of 100 complete for the realization of their wishes. From Parnell downward there is genuine anxiety to reach some set- tlement of the Irish question. There- fore it follows, that the action of certain members of the Liberal party; Labouchere, for instance, in denounc- ing the conciliatory speeches and adopting an irreconciliable attitude bas not their sympa- thy, and will not have their public support. This is an important factor in the situation a THE TRIAL OF DILLON. Respecting the trial of Dillon, it is felt that should the Crown succeed in packing the jury, as on former occasions, thus reducing the trial to a farce, and rendering conviction a foregone conclusion, some very strong action must be taken to cali the attention of the country prominently to the matter. A course of action on the part of Dil- lon has been decided on, if the oc- casion should rise for carrying it out, which will cause much excitement and fur- nish a more striking political score than has been witnessed for along time. i am not at liberty to give details of it, as it would be in the power of the Government to frustaate it completely, if they were known. this action is taken you will hear ot it through the ordinary news channels. It no necessity for it should arise, 1 will describe it on ANOTHER OCCASION. The life of Philip Bourke Marston, the well known blind poet, who diedin his chambers yesterday, after fortnight’s illness, has been for many years one, of extreme sad- ness. He had grown even more wretched lately, and his friends regard his death as a welcome relief from hopeless suffering. To complete blindness epilepsy had recently been added and rendering him entirely unabie to work and, therefore, wholly dependent on the charity of friends and reducing him in the intervals of the attacks toastate of distress- ing melancholy. -— WAR CLOUDS. Austro-Hungary’s War Credits for the Land- wehr and Landsturm. VIENNA, February 15.—The Government has introduced a bill in the Reichstrath appropri- ating 12,000,000 florins for the equipment of the Landwehr and Landsturm, THE AUSTRO-HUNGARY WAR OREDITS. BupDa-PEsTH, February 15.—The Government to-day submitted tothe lower house of the Hungarian Diet a bill appropriating 7,460,000 florins to supply the Hungarian Landwebr and the army reserves with stocks of war material and to equip the first band of the Landsturm. All the parties in the House, after a confer- ence, agreed to vote for the passage of the bill without debate. The measure was at once referred to the Military and Financial Committee of the House. The pre- amble to the bill explains that the credits asked for are demanded asa natural sequence of the adoption of the bill organ- izing the Landsturm of volunteer ser- vice called out in time of war. The preamble goes on to say that in view of the military measures which the other European states are taking, it would be a serious owission for Austro-Hungary to longer refrain from equipping the Landsturm. The empire, it adds, is int rested in peaceful progress; the efforts of the Government are directed to maintain peace, but it it is not de- sirable to be surprised, the Government must, like any one willing to sacrifice vital interests, be prepared in case of necessity to sacrifice everything in defense of the monarcby.

HOW REPUBLICANS IN THE POST-OFFICE DEPARTMENT WERE RETAINED. A Vilas Presidential Boom Started by Subordinates — Manning’s Successor —A Report That the President Will Appoint William R. Morrison—The Fishery Re- taliatory Bill — Congressional FProceed- ings— Washington News. By Telegraph to the Posr-Dis raren. WASHINGTON, D. C., February 15.—Since the resignation of Superintendent Jameson of the Railway Mail Service, yesterday, which was forced by the fight Senator Beck made upon him, itis learned that the secret of his and many other Republicans’ retention in the Post-office Department was because all of them huye been talking up Vilas for President. This has been going on to such an extent that the Postmaster-General has been made to be- lieve that he will be the next nominee of the Democrats. All Republicans in the Depart- ment have availed themselves of the oppor tunity to give the Postmaster-General a boom, and each has poured it into his ear as they would catch him, until he believes it, and, of course, couldn’t, out of kindness to them, consent to have any of them discharged when they were all for him for President. Manning’s Successor. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., February 15.—It seems to be the impression that Assistant Secretary Fairchild will be made successor to Mr. Manning in the Cabinet. Others who claim to bé well informed, state positively, that the President has intimated that he will appoint Mr. Morrison. There is hardly a doubt but that the appointment will goto the East and Fairchild will be the one selected. Killed by the Speaker’s Ruling, By Telegraph to the POsT-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., February 15.—By a ruling of the Speaker a day cannot be set for the consideration of the bill granting a pension to Mrs. Logan. This practically kills the education bill also. Had not the question on the Logan bill been overruled, Mr. Willis intended asking the same privilege for the consideration of the educational bill. According to the ruling of the Speakerthe matter was referred to the Committee on Rules, which, of course, will hardly make a report during this session. Greely Succeeds Hazen. WASHINGTON, D. C., February 15.—The President sent the following nominations to the Senate to-day: War—Capt. A. W. Gree- ley, Fifth Cavalry, to be chief — officer, with the rank of Brigadier-General.

FALLING 1,000 FEET. It Was with a Parachute, and the Man _. Touched Bottom Safely. From the San Francisco Chronicle, The announcement that Prof. T. 8. Baldwin would drop from a balloon when at an elevation of 1,000 feet by means ofa patent parachute, drew an immense con- course of people to the terminus of the Haight street cable line yesterday after- pnoon. It was close on to 30’clock when Prof. Baldwin made his appearance, clad in tights, and no time was lost in arrangin preliminaries. The apparatus by means o which he proposed toreach mother earth from the altitude before mentioned was made of canvas and attached tothe side of the balloon in such a manner that the strain of the aeronaut’s weight on it would sever the connection. When fully ex- panded the machine was seen to be an enormous parachute, from the outer edge of which hung numerous cords of about eight feet in length, which met beneath, and had suspended from them an ordinary trapeze bar. Prof. Baldwin was accompanied by M. Blanchard. When the desired height had een reached Prof. Baldwin grasped the rapeze bar with both handsand dropped over the side of the basket. As the rush throuch the air expanded the parachute, it seemed to pause in mid-air. This was only momentary, however, and as the law of gravitation beganto assert itself the distance between the Professor and the earth visibly lessened. As he — to the bar he could be seen anxiously looking beneath him, as if speculating on what kiud of territory he was going to land in. Down he came, gathering velocity with every foot until it was very evident that some miscalcula- tion as to the rate of speed of the machine had been made, and that if the Professor had the bad luck to be dumped ona picket fence or on the roof a house the trip would not be devoid of acci- dent. All’s well that ends well, how- ever, and the only thing that suffered through the experiment was a small wat- tle tree through which the aeronaut crashed before striking the ground. He landed in a lot attached to asmal! cottage, and was immediately surrounded by thou- sands eager to know if he had been hurt. That he was none the worse for his rapid descent was clearly tobe seen, as after being congratula by Van Tassel, he threw a back somersault and engag in a fifty-yard spurt. The reason given by Prof. Baldwin for the unexpected speed with which he came down is that the parachute did not ex- pand fully until very close to the ground, by which time he had gained a velocity that was not easily checked. Others pres- ent considered that the diameter of the apparatus—24 feet—was not sufficient,and that it ought to be increased by at least 5 feet to insure absolute safety in making a descent of 1,000 feet. .

It is not creditable to St. Louis that we are obliged to depend on private subscrip- tions and on the machinery of Federal justice to punish fraudsin elections held in this city. Even after the evidence of these frauds has been laid bare not one of the city officials has given any assistance in bringing the criminals to justice, while more than one official has put himself in the attitude of an obstructionist toward the purification of the registration lists. — * In answer to numerous complaints re- oeived at this office of discomforts en- dured by sober citizens from needless re- cent bell-ringing, we wish to say that it is the tribute of happy childhood to the season of St. Valentine, and it is now probably over.

Both in the Senate and on the stump he will be heard maintaining that free trade with Canada would prove ruinous to the people of this country. Instead of fighting to obliterate that boundary line he will always be found laboring to fortify it with a high tariff wall. —————— -~ _ | — * 2 — THE METROPOLITAN PRESS. What the Editors of the New York Journals Are Saying This Morning. By Telegraph to the Posr-Disrarcn. NEW Tonk, February 15.—The WORLD says: The Pacific Mail Company once secured the passage of a bill giving it $500,000 annually for ten years, and dn its being conclusively proven that it had spent $750,000 in one winter in Washington in getting the measure through, it was repealed. Last year the same company protested that if Congress did not vote extra pay for service to the ports it touched it would have nothing to do with the mails. Congress was unmoved by the threats, and the com- pany soon came begging to the Department for employment atthe prevailing rates. The subsidy business appears to demoralize every- thing it has to do with, either on land or sea. THE SU. The Sun says: The situation ment may de thus summed up: Diplomatists talk peace, but l distinguished soldier in Europe who has spoken at all on the subject be- lievesin war. It is, moreover, undisputed that if contrary to present expectations, the elec- tions next Monday shouid result unfavorably for Bismarck, the contest between France and Germany would be likely to begin at once.’ at this mo- THE TRIBUNE. The Tribune says: ‘‘When nations disport themselves with exhibitions of their own destructive powers in the vain hope of fright- ening their enemies, it is safe to conclude that they are themselves apprehensive of the re- sults of modern warfare. It is a fantastic metnod of whistling to keep up their own fail- ing courage. Probably the German and French staffs stand in equal dread of each other’s armaments, They certainly are mak- ing strenuous efforts to advertise their own military resources with a view to creating alarm in foreign capitals.’’ THE TIMES. The Times says: ‘‘There isa curious point of difference between the House and the Sen- ate on the furtification bill. Both are reed that the expenditure should be made, and that it should be as much as $10,000,000 ut while the Republican Senate is willing that the ex- penditure should be made under the direction of an ordnance board, to de appointed by the President, the Democratic House insists on creating a board, the majority of which shall not be named bythe President. This board the House wishes to have consist of two officers of the army, selected, of course, by the President; one member selected by the President of the Senate, oue by the Speaker of the House and athird to be chosen by these two. This contrivance is ridiculous in itself, and in its motive it is thoroughly blameworthy, but it shows what strange forces are at work in the Democratic party.’’ ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

JEFFERSON Crry, Mo., February 15.—The good work of the Senate last week in agree- ing, in Committee of the Whole, upon the main features of the bill establishing and pro- viding for the maintenance of the State militia was knocked into a cocked hat this morning by the action of the House in defeat- ing the House militia bill on engrossment. The vote against the bill was so overwhelm- ingly large and decisive that it settles at once and for all the fate of any measure of a similar character which may come up this session. Mr. Shaw of Ste. Genevieve stated after the defeat thgt he had expected the bill would be voted down, but that he was still hopeful of the ability of the friends of the measure to obtain a reconsideration of to-day’s vote, and to finally OVERCOME ALL OPPOSITION, and carry the bill through. In view of the fact that the ballot on the engrossment of the bill stood 80 noes to 47 ayes, it is hardly probabie that the motion to reconsider will prevail. When the bill came up in regular order for engrossment and printing, Mr. Harris Shaw of Ste. Genevieve, Chairman of the Committee on Militia, offered a number of unimportant amendments, similar to those which had been agreed to by the Sen- ate, and makingthe bill the same, word for word, asthe Senate measure. None of the amendments were opposed, all being agreed toinaspirit which deceived the friends of the bill, wbo were congratulating themselves upon their success, and disagreeably sur- prised lateron. Nospeeches ofany length were made and there appeared to be a general dis- position on the part of both sides to handle and dispose of the bill without discussion. Alter the bili had been properly shaped and trimmed, it was LED TO THE SACRIFICIAL ALTAR by Mr. Shawof Ste. Genevieve, who moved that tbe bill be ordered to engrossment.’’ The motion was duly seconded by at least a half-dozen members, and a viva voce vote be- ing taken the Speaker announced that it was lost. Mr. Moore of Laciede called for the ayes and noes. Ihe roll was called with the fol- lowing result: AYEs—Messrs Allison, Amick, Arbuthnot, Babcock, Bond, Buckner, Booth, Chrisman, Church, Curtis, Daniel, Davis.

The Senate this morning occupied a great deal of time in the discussion of Senator Parcher’s bill prohibiting the acceptance of railroad passes or free transportation of any kind by State officials or other persons not connected in an official capacity with railroad com- anies. A number of the Senators ave expressed themselves in favor of the the House free pass bill, who do not favor restricting the ruilroadsin issuing passes so far as persons not State officials are concerned, and the bill failed to pass, the vote standing 15 ayes to 12 noes, just falling three votes short of a constitutional majority. The bill repealing the law establishing a branch penitentiary, was taken up and passed by a vote of 25 ayes to 2 noes. "HE HvUSE. Mr. Saulsbury of Chariton called up the Fotheringham investigation resolution and moved to reconsider the vote by which it passed. Uwing tothe absence of the author of the resolution the matter was laid over in- formally. Mr. Booth of Franklin introduced the local Option bill agreed to by the Democratic cau- cus last night. The measure provides for local option, by counties, the elections to be held on petition on the first Tuesday in No- vember, 1887, and biennially thereafter. In counties voting for the sale of liquor peti tions for dramshop licenses shall be signed by the taxpaying voters instead of taxpaying citizens as now required. Chairman Allison ofthe Committee on Education presented a majority report of the committee, recom- mending a substitute bill prohibiting the teaching of foreign languages in public schools, acting undera special charter. In effect the substitute of the committee ap- plies only to St. Louis and the schools of a few large cities, and snould it be adopted, German and other foreign languages will be taught Only in the high school departments. Mr. Moulton submitted a minority report recommending that the law remain as at pres- ant. After considerable discussion, both re- ports were ordered printed. The fight on the substitute will occur when it comes up for en- grossment early next week. THE SUBMISSION RESOLUTION. At 10:30 o'clock Satterwhite of St. Francois County called for the special order of the duy, which, in this instance, was the joint and concurrent submission resolution. he mil- itia bill being under consideration, submis- sion was passed until Il o’clock, when it was taken up and Jewettof Shelby County — — a speech in favor of his amendment providing that prohibition should it be adopted ＋ vote of the people shall go into operation January 1, 1882. Jewett’s amendment was lost by a vote of 74 noes to 54 ayes. Dunn of Lincoln otfered an amendment in- cluding tobacco among the articles, the sale of which is prohibited by the resolution, and made a few facetious remarks in its favor. Goodykoontz of Washi n asked the Speaker torulethe amendment out of order buta viva voce vote killed it without an further difficuity. as a substitute: ed the shail also compensate persons who have been by the sale ot intoxicants.’’ Dr. Newberry made a brief speech, onmng the attention of the members to the fact that when the resolution was post- poned two weeks ago the minority promised a uare and no er motions.

One of those developments in Jife which set at naught all the theories of philosophers and moralists came to light at the office of the Post-office Inspectors yesterday. The expla- nation of the surprising finale could only be found in the old maxim that ‘‘love is blind.“ A month or so ago a young lady, about 20, good in looks and life, who lives in a little town in the interior ofthe State, but who clerks in a fruit store in this city, received a communication through the mail whose vile- ness of spelling was no more remarkable than the vileness of the contents. In fact, it was of such an offensive character that its age through the mails was in violation ofthe pos. tal regulation against obscenity. Bewildered by the surprising nature of the insult the lady endured her mortification in silence. Several weeks passed and then a longer letter, worse than the first, reached ber through the postman. Dazed and frightened by these secret attacks she laid the matter before her employer, who was as much puzzied as to the best way to proceed as she. A few days later the employer himself received a scurrilous screed which soangered him that he took all the correspondence and laid it be- fore Inspector McAfee of the Post-office, whuse researches extend principally in the direction of prohibited mail matter. It was not long before the Inspector ran the villain to cover. He ascertained that the young lady had a lover and his experience taught him that he was probably the guilty party. He watched him and learned allabout him. He was a bar-keeper, dressed well, and was well behaved, and the last one the uninitiated would bave suspected. But no other theory was available, and 80 that was worked out to its limit. Yesterday morning the evidence had all been gathered towether so completely that it was decided to lace the youn wain, not more than 20 21 years old, Ying bars that do not have mint juleps, and just as the swoop was being outlined, news came in that the lady had married the fellow. What. married that contemptible cur!’’ said the Inspector, as the pages of evidence fell from his hands. Well, that beats me. Investigating the strange union he found that the bar-keeper, learning that he was likely to be arrested, confessed his deeds, but at- tributed it all to drunkenness. He said he was intoxicated at the time he wrote the letters, and appealed to the irregular, uncer- tain ochirography for his vindication. The lady was obdurate. He had waited on her faithfully and devotedly, but, though she had loved him, his disgrace was too deep. He implored and begged on his kneesfor pardon. he fervency of his leadings had little effect until he showed ber ow, if she would but marry him, the Govern- ment prosecution would have to be dropped. This moved her, and her old love came back so strong that all his vileness was forgotten. She consented to the union, and the lady’s parents not objecting, the Government au- thorities were notified as stated. Speaking about the singular denouement Mr. McAfee said: ‘‘Of course the marriage knocks the prosecution all in the head, but we can hold this charge over the feliow’s head for several years and make him treat the girl honestly. Such an ending is very rare. I have only met with one instance like this before in my ex- n and that was the case of a widow ady, over 30 years of age, who forgave her anonymous vilifier and married him after she had turned the correspondence over to me to begin prosecution.’’ a con- s the A CLOSE CALL, A Negro Madman Goes Gunning for the Governor of South Carolina.

The contested divorce case of Mrs. Sarah Bedell against Albert T. Bedell was called be- fore Judge Dillon to-day. The Bedelle ap- pear to have hada stormy domestic career. They were married September 21, 1878, in St. Clair County, LUlinois. The separation took piace last February. Mrs. Bedell ac- cused her husband of the most cruel and barbarous treatment, alleged that he struck and beat her without any provocation, and at one time caused her to be arrested and imprisoned for the space of three days, and then failed to appear against her. On one occasion she alleged that her husband knocked her head through a window: pane and another time he choked her on a sofa, seized her by the hair and knocked her head against a brick wall. Mra. Bedell further alleged that her husband failed to support her. She asked for the custody of the youngest child and for alimony. The husband fiJed an answer and cross-bill denying his wife’s allegations and declaring that he was the injured party. He alleged that his wife entertained strange men who induiged in liquor at his house, and that when he ap- proached she would curse in the most horrible mannerand shout: ‘‘Run, or the old man will «ill you. He further alleged that his wife was in the habit of leaving home at all hours of the nightand day giving no excuse for ber absence, and that she neglected her family and whipped the children most unmerci fully. On one occasion she packed her trunk and deciared her intention of leaving the house for good. Mr. Bedell complains that his wife kept up her irregular conduct fer nearly five years, and that she kept in the house as a boarder a young man objectionable to her husband and against his wishes. He asked thatthe children’s custody should be awarded to him. Gentle Annie. Edward Turner has filed a petition in the Circuit Court seeking a decree of divorce from Annie Turner. They were married in April, 17. and lived together until April, 1885. Mr. Turner alleges that his wife frequently threat- ened his life, assaulted him with a poker, knocked him down and otherwise abused him. He also alleges that his wife was guilty of improper conduct with other men. The Cundiff Contract. The suit of the administrators ot J. H. R. Cundiff against George Knapp & Company was called before a jury to-day in Judge Thayer’s court. This is a claim onan alleged contract made by the late J. H. R. Cun- diff with the late George Knapp and John Knapp at the time of the collapse of the St. Louis Times. There were contracts existing for the city printing when Col. Cundiff suspended publi- cation of the Times atthe office ofthat paper in December, 1880, and he entered into an agreement with the Knapps to continue the ublication of the Times at the office of the publican until the contract exp:red. This arrangement was wade prior to the fore- closure proceedings in court and the sale of the Times property. For the Cundiff estate it is claimed that the Knappe agreed to employ him as an editorial writer at a salary of $8,500 per annum for three „ in addition, to give him shares of stoc in the Republican of the par value of $,000. The stock was never received, and Col. Cundiff died after several years’ service in the editorial and business departments of the Republican. The admin- istrators sued Geo. Knapp & Company for the value of the stock, and an answer was filea setting forth that the con- tract with Col. Cundiff’ was faithfully kept by the Knapps; that the Times was published, and that Col. Cundiff was regularly employed and regularly paid at the Republican office, but that he never paid the sum of $6,000, which was the agreed consideration for the publication of the Times newspaper, and that no contract was ever made with him whereby he was to receive stock in the Republican. years, a Verdict for $5,000. The damage suit of B. Kellny against the Missouri Pacific Railway Company was tried yesterday in Circuit Court- room No. 3. In his petition the plaintiff said that he was driving along the Levee with his horse and wagon in July, 1886, when the defendant ran one of its locom tives upon the vehicie and injured him in such a way that he had to have his left arm amputated nearthe shoulder. He asked for damages to the amount of $10,000. Wm. C. and Jas. ©. Jones represented the plaintiff. A verdict was rendered this morning for $5,000. The Tutt Partnership. Judge Valliant to-day rendered a decision of some interest to surviving partners. The firm of D. G. Tutt & Co. was dissolved by the death of Wm. 8. Reid, one of the partners, January 1, 1883. D. G. Tutt qualified as surviving part- ner on the 8d of January, 1883, and adminis- tered the partnership estate. In June, 1888, he filed his final settiement and claimed an allowance of 3 per cent. commissions for compensation for his services as surviving partner in the administration. Exceptions were filled to the claim by the administrator ot the estate of Wiliiam S. Reid and the Pro- bate Court sustained them. Mr. Tutt appealed from the decision of the Probate Court. The Supreme Court has held that the duty of winding up the affairs of a partnership estate was one tnat the surviving partner owed, and that he was not entitled to compensation for performing that duty anless it was expressly so provided in the co-partnership agreement. There was no right in the surviving partner to such service before the act of 1885, and, as jt is not retro- spective in its action, the surviving partner in this case is not entitled to compensation. The order of distribution of the estate is as follows: Robert E. Williams, administrator of the estate of Wm. S. Reid, $1,481.73; Dent G. Tutt, $16,893.18 and E. G. Tutt $759.19. A Prohibition Proceeding. A petition fora writ of prohibition was en- tered to-day in the Court of Appeals in be- half of the administrator of the estate of Joseph H. Locke and against Judge Thayer of Court No. 6. Au order had issued from Judge Thayer's Court directing security for costs In the suit of the Locke administrator against the estates of Robert L. Jones and R. J. Howard. Failing to furnish such a bond the case was to be dismissed, and the Court of Appeals is asked to probibit such action on the ground that no bond for costs is required of the administrator of the estate. The suit was sent back from the Supreme Court under a reversal of the judgment of the lower court. Judge Thayer waived notice, and he was given ten days to file a reply or plead to the petition. The Court of Appeals, The Court of Appeals did not hand down its bi-weekly batch of decisions to-day owing to the illness of Judge Lewis, which prevented a consultation among the Judges. The an- nouncements will be deferred until next Tueg- day. The Mabel Nofsinger habeas corpus case which was set for to-day was likewise held over until next Tuesday. A Costly Dog-Bite.

The present Directors of the Board of Pub- lic Schoois wish to retain their seats in spite of the redistricting of the city and the new formation of the wards. The report of the Redistricting Committee having been ap- proved by the Circuit Court, which appointed them, the new ward limits are es- tablished, and under the first section of an act of the General Assembly concerning the election of school board directors the seats of the members are vacated. The follow- ing is the section: **SKCTION i. Whenever the boundaries of any ward in the City of St. Louis shall be changed, the seats of the directors of ‘‘The Board of nt and Directors of the St. Louis Pub- lic Schools’’ elected from said ward shall be vacated and said board shall order elections for the seats so to be vacated, in the manner and at the time as now provided by law, and by the rules of said board; but the present directors shall continue in office until their successors are elected and qualified.’’ Some of the present directors do not desire an election, and stand upon the second clause of the section which gives the board the power to order the new election. Section 4 of the charter of the board aiso provides thatthe **said board of President and directors shall have power to judge the qualifications, elec- tions and returns of the members, and to pre- scribe the time, place and manner of conduct- ing the elections of members of the board in the several wards of the vg 4 ** etc. Under this provision the board adopted the following rule: All general elections for directors ef the St. Louis Public Schools shall be held in the respective wards on the fourth Tuesday in October in each year at such place or places as the board may direct. With such legal provisions at their back the members whooppose the new election also lead the expense it would cause. The undaries of all the wards have been changed except the Third and the Twenty- fourth. The Third is now represented by John B. Taylor, whose term expires October 1887, and the Twenty-fourth, now called the Thirteenth, is represented by Louis F. Weibel. whose term expires October, 1889. They will bold over until their terms expire, but vacan- cies now exist in the twenty-six other wards. According to the new ward lines the present members reside in the wards as given below: First Ward, John W. Parle; Second Ward, Wm. Goerlich; Third Ward, Jno. B. Taylor; Fourth Ward, John Bradyand Otto D’Amour; Fifth Ward, Alois Biank; Sixth Ward, W. O.

Bryan; Twenty-sixth Ward, George Schubert; Twenty-seventh Ward, Michael Foerstel, Henry Ude and Wm. ee Hawkins; Twenty- eighth Ward, L. E. Theo. Fiscner. Some of the members want an immediate election to fill vacancies, but the majority, or at least a large number of the members, de- sire the postponement of the general election until October of this year, when many terms expire. The question will come up to-night and avery warm discussion is expected be- tween the gentiemen who favor April and the gentiemen who want October as the month for the election. EAST Sr. LOUIS. The Bowman Murder Case—Opposed to An- nexation—Notes. East St. Louisans are waiting in anxious ex- pectation for new developments in the Bow- man murder case. The county authorities have given out that they are in possession of evidence against Policeman Voice, corrobor- ative of the statements of Schmidt and Banks, but refuse to disclose it, and untilit is made known public opinion as tothe merits of the case against Voice will remain unformed. As was stated on the day after his arrest, Voice told Alderman Mark Bird that he ex- age to be jailed. Mr. Tim Halloraa and r. Robert Colligan both stated to-day that he had told them the same thing, but they, like Mr. Bird, did not believe he was speaking se- riously. He informed them that he had heard on the best of authority that Smith and Banks had muade statements that they saw him commit the deed. He did not say anything to them about getting themand others, who were in the saloon on the night of the murder, to prove an alibi for him. Mr. Halloran, when spoken to about the letter which Voice bad sent bim requesting that he come up and see him, said that he would go up to Belle- ville as a witness if subpcenaed whenever the peetientnery examination took place, but he id not think he would go upand see Voice in the jail, because he did not see any particular reason why he should go, and he had his busi- ness to attend to. Mr. Halloran said he could not understand why Voice did not demand a preliminary examination immediately, if, as he stated, the authorities were willing to give him a hearing as soon as he desired. The action of the City Council in annexing Duteh Hill and the Village of New Brighton does not meet with the approval of the resi- dents of those places.

His body will be brought to this City, THE TRAGEDY. On the evening on which O’Brien received the wound that, in all probability, caused un death, he had been dining at Delmonico’s Leaving there, he stroiled up Broadway, anf at Twenty-seventh street met Truman a well-known gambler. It was reported that he accused Truman of attempting to blackmail a friend. Truman called bim 1 liar and O’Brien responded by striking him jg the face with his fist. Truman drew a knife and stabbed O’Brien in the stomach, but not before he had shot Truman in the arm. Both men were arrested and taken to the New York Hospital. They were subsequently taken to Jefferson Market Court, but they refused to make complaints against each other. An jn. dictment was afterward found against Tru- man.

One evening O'Brien entere¢ The Burnt Rag’’ saloon while O Bald. win was there. The latter made some insulting remarks and O'Brien closed with O’Baldwin and soon had him at his mercy. Larry’s last ‘‘runin’’ was with Pete McCoy, the middle-weignt pugilist. It took place at Madison Square Garden the nicht that Sullivan and Laflin fought there. Larry was backiny Laflin while McCoy was a friend of Sullivan. McCoy made some remarks to which O’Brien took exception, O’Brien at. tacked him, pounded him severely, ‘hip locked’’ him, and threw him to the floor Friends then interfered and stopped the fight Larry was a bosom friend of Pa Sheedy. One afternoon they met & front of the Coleman House, and Sheedy asked O’Brien to chip in’’ F200 to 8 % „play bank at faro. Larry said he wa „broke, and Sheeay at once ‘‘staked him.” They went to the Washington game, the running on West Thirty-first street. and be- fore nightfall they had won $5,000. O’Brien made a trip to Europe, and his gambling in- stincts led him naturally to Baden Baden, where gambling was then in full swing. In one night he won $30,000 and broke the bank. A DICKENS OF A ROW. A Suspended Student Brings Suit Against a College Faculty. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPatcr. CARLISLE, Pa., February 15.—The jury were impanneled yesterday afternoon in the case of John M. Hill, a student, against the faculty of Dickenson College. The faculty themselves, some of the janitors and twenty or thirty ol the students were subpcnaed as witnesses. The lawyers for the plaintiff were Prof. Trick- ett, Messrs. Hepburn & Stuart and Distriet- Attorney Stuart. The defendants were repre- sented by ex-Judges Herman and Henderson and Attorneys Smead and Beltshoover. 8. Stuart opened for the petitioner, showing that Dickenson is a regularly chartered institution and that Mr. Hill was a student in good stand- ing; that there are in the college two courts, the lower one consisting of the faculty, the higher of the trustees sitting in this case. Ap. plication for a writ of mandamus was Hill's only appeal. He further said that they would show that Hill was a good student and was innocent of the charges; that it was the duty of the faculty first to admonish, then to sus end. President McCaulley was the first witness called. He said that Hill was a student in the college prior to November 9, when the riotous proceedings took place in front of the col. lege, The faculty met November 16; when Hill's name came before them connected with the disorder. The witness, as President, stated that he had information from the janitor that he had seen Hui on the campus that night, acting in an excited manner. There was no written evidence aud no witnesses were called. Hill was not notified previous to that evening. He was not charged with any- thing, nor was his name mentioned before em. The plaintiff, J. M. Hill, testified that — first intimation he had of his being e n with the riot was on the night of November l.

Sir William Vernon Harcourt, the pillar of Cambridge Liberalism, is no longer profes- wonderful in a mite of a girl. She is bright, undoubtedly clever, with a twinkling, rattling way about her which keeps her a center of interest on the stage, and her specialities are done in that pithy, effective manner which makes them entertaining. But not always amusing. The adapter appears to have labored with a view only to constructing some kind of ua piece which the manager is clean and wholesome. The large audience which filled the parquetand dress circie last night appeared to enjoy it. Mr. Sydney Drew worked considerable fun out of the character of Lord Abercrombie Dahlgreen and Mr. A. H.

Lord Jersey v his little son, and there was a “ay — Weal Wood, and a fair run, but next day things were worse, and it was necessary to organize a humble rat hunt in default ot better amuse- ment, while on Thursday the meet only resulted in ten minutes’ run. The Prince made another attempt on Friday, and resolved to prolong his stay in hopes ot achange. Riding does not appearto be one of the Prince’s accomplishments. WALES’ BREEDING STUD.

Transplanting a Rabbit's Eye to the Head of aHuman Being. By Telegraph to the Posr-Disr Aron. New Tonk, February 15.—There has just been tried in this city for the first and prob- ably the last time the experiment of trans- ferring the eye of a living rabbit to the head of a human being. Mr. Chas. E. Williams, the city editor of the Minneapolis Tribune, lost his right eye seventeen years ago. A few months ago the left eye began to trouble bim and the doctor told him he would have to have the extinct eye removed to save the other. Mr. Williams, who bad read of the experiments of transplanting of rabbit eyes by Mr. Mays of this city, came to New York in the latter part of January, and offered himself as a subject on which to perform the opera- tion. e operation was performed on the afternoon of February 1 in Mr. Williams room, 119 East Fifty-ninth street. Mr. ll - jams was in a une physical dition and is a man of nervous vitality aud force. With Dr. May came Dr. Gruening, Dr. Wilmer of Mt, Sinai Hospital, halt a dozen medical students and a professional nurse, The animal which was to contribute an eye for Mr. Williams’ adorn- ment was a very large Beigian hare, with eyes which almost matched Mr. Williams’ in color, except that they were just a shade darker and 2-25 smaller. Mr. Williamsleftthe room and _ rabbit was placed ona table and subjected 0 THE INFLUENCE OF ETHER. „Mr. Williams was then brought to the room and laid upon a sofa a few feet away from the table on which lay the rabbit. hen Mr. Williams was also under the influence of ether the first step inthe operation both upon the rabbit and upon Mr. Williams’ eye Was to cut loose the conjunctional sack from the muscles which control the move- ment ofthe eye, and asthey were cut these ends were caught with a ligature of silk thread. The optic nerves in the rabbit's eye and in the eye of the human being were severed at about the same time and the transfer was then made as quickly as possible, the optic morves joined, and the muscles in the human head attached to the conjunctional sack of the rabbit’s eye, which was then put into its place. The entire operation lasted an hour and a qaarter. Both eyes were tightly bandaged and Mr. Williams was piaced upon his back in bed. The second ay when the ogee were removed, able a slight upon the cornea of the rabbit eye, and the fourth day Mr. Williams was able to roll his eyes naturally and simultaneously, proving that the muscu- lar attachment had been perfected. On the evening of the eighth day there was a slight discoloration and moisture on the band which indicated a rupture ofthe cornea. Th enlarged and on the next * nearly ali the coloring matter of the iris had run out. Nothing was left then but to remove the rab- bit’s eye and Mr. Williams will, in a few days, have a glass eye put in and go home.

By Telegraph to the Post-Disratcu. New YORK, February 15.—Policemen Dean Saw agroup of men, women and children in Twenty-ninth street, near Eleventh avenue, about 8 o’clock yesterday morning. Ap- proaching, the officer discovered the charred and blackened remains of a fully developed female infant lying in the middle of the street. The body was in a horribly mutllated condi- tion, for in addition to having been burned a number of trucks had evidentiy passed over it, crushing the head and upper part ofthe body. The 1% had not been disturped, however. Policeman Dean removed the body tothe Twentieth Police Precinct, whenco it was sent to the Morgue. Capt. Washburne put de- tectives on the case yesterday, in the hopes of solving the mystery. West Twenty-ninth street, between Tentb and Eleventh avenue, is atenement-house district and No, West Twenty-ninth street, in front of which the body was found, is a large tenement with four amilies on each floor.

Michael J, Kelly,the great catcher and right- felder, who for years has been associated with the Chicago White Stockings, passed into the posses- sion of the Bos- ton League Club yesterday, the price paid for him to Spalding being $10,000. This price has never been approached in the sale of any ball player living or dead, and shows eonclu- zesively that the enormous offers of managers inthe Mike Kelly. East lately made were made in good faith. It is stuted that ne- gotiations for the Chicago player have been in progress for a month or more past. The story of the purchase as told by Treasurer Billings of the Boston club is that the idea of buying Kelly first entered the heads of the management shortly after the close of the sea- son of 1886, when the reports of bad blood be- tween the crack neider and Anson and Spald- ing were first circulatea. Mr. Soden was loth to believe that Spaldin would part with Kelly but finally mustered up sufficient cour- age to broach-the matter to him. The first offer made was 5.000. It was made by letter and the answer came in due time that Spalding could not afford t» dispose of his best player forso small a sum as $5,000. At the same time he added that double the amonnt offered would secure the release. In reply to this Soden wrote Spalding that he would pay $9,000 for Kelly, but the Chicago President was immovable in his first proposi- tion. The Boston Clab, intent on not being beaten out of so big a bargain for a mere paltry $1,000, decided to pay the $10,000 casb immediately and signthe player. Further correspondence passed between Boston and Chicago, and Friday night everything was ready for Michael to place his signature to a Boston contract. Messrs. Soden, Conant and Billings left Sunday night for Poughkeep- sie, N. V., having wired Kelly to meet them at that place. Kelly came and met them, as agreed upon. Hewas asked for what salary he would play with the Bostons and modestly replied that $5,000 would be abont the figure. This sum seemed a trifle large to Mr. Soden, and after disenssing the matter ter an hour and one-half meee | agreed to sign for the limit, 62,000, and to sell his portrait to Mr. Soden forahandsome sum. He is now the big man on the Bostons and will take John Morrili’s place as captain the coming season. Kelly became famous since his connection with the 7 cae White Stockings, and „Kelly“ and ‘‘Chicago’’ have become 80 thoroughly welded together in the minds of enthusiasts that it will be. really painful to tear them apart. Kelly hails from Paterson, N.J.,where he first played in the local team. In 1878 he piayed in Columbus, O., and in 1879 he went to Cincinnati, which club had hie services one year. The season following, 1880, he signed with the Chicago team and has played with thatclub ever since. As a change catcher Kelly stands withouta peer in the country. For his services with the Ohicagoa for the sen- son of 1886, he received $2,250, $2,000 salary and $250 for winning the League championship. — — — — THE MAROONS’ DEAL. Latest Developments in the League Base Ball Situation. Notwithstanding the seemingly solid ar- rangements made at Chicago by which the Kansas City Ciubis to become the owner of the franchise and the players of the St. Louis Maroons, there is still some doubt that the deal will be finally made.

A Scheme by Which the League Will Be Re- venged on Them. j When the League made the new rule lag fall whereby the visiting club is to get a guar- antee instead of a percentage of the receipts, the Detroit Club, knowing it is not self-sup- porting, made considerable objection. It even went so far as to threaten to join the American Association if concessions were not made. Fearing that this threat might be put into execution, and thus re- move a large number of good play. ers from the ague, the New York and Chicago Clubs gave in to Detrvit’s demands. The agreement, however, only lasts for one season. Inthe meantime the two great men ofthe League intend todo some e work for the benefit of the Detroit Club. One of the first moves by the Le e mana- gers, says the New York Sun, will to adopt arule which willatali times prevent a olub from taking ite players with it in case it wishes to leave the League and join any other organization. hen the other clubs ofthe League will be ready forthe agreement with the New York and Chicago clubsto expire. When it does the Detroit Club will be thrown on its own re- sources and will be forced to support itself. This, it is asserted, it cannot do on account of the vast ex se under which it labors. About this time, a manager said not lon ago, ‘‘the other Leagueciubs will begin to cas hun giances at the great players of the De- troit Clab, and, in order to keep its head above water, some of the men must sold. Once — > ole the life ofthe club will be short ndeed.’’ Something of the cost of putting the Detroit Club on the field and carrying it through last year is shown by the following : Cost of the big four ; Dunlap Other players bought, . -« Fel xpenses ue ...er ee eee . * Salaries — — coos ecco Qe OUD Traveling and other expenses . 10,000 Dnring the season the club played to nearly 500. 000 spectators. When it opened the season it had a debt of 21,000, but this was paid off before the middle of the season. The whole profit of the club was derived from the games away from home. It is a well-known fact that 40 per cent of the stock of the Detroit Club may de had by any who wish to buy. Base Ball Briefs. „All the pitchers in the country have been affected by the new rules except those of the Metropolitan Club, says Managing Director Watrous. John Clapp, who was at one time one of the brightest ba 1 on the New York Club, but was forced to give up ball playing on ac- count of sickness, is anxious to take up the neld again. He has recovered his health. The club that gets him will have a good general player. A great privilege of a travelling base ball club is the reduced professional railroad rates. The interstate commerce Dill prevents special concessions in rates for any distinct class of assengers or baggage. It is rarely that any egisiation affects the nomadic manager or ball players. This is a sad blow to the weaker clubs. The New York Club has arranged the follow- ing games forthe early spring: April 1. with the Jaspers; April 7, with Newark; April 8, with Yale; April 18 and 190, with Princeton. Three games will also be played with the Met- ropolitan Club. All the open dates that the club will have by the Ist of April will be heid for games with the New York reserve team. With a fair chance Boston would outbid Chi- cago two to one for Glasscock, and Spalding knows it. But as Boston is not on the com- mittee and Chicago is, of course the Chicago Club can do about as itlikes. The — — which the St. Louis Club was to de droppe out of the League was formed some time ago, and it is only the first part of a scheme by which the Indianapolis Club isto drop out of the League at the end of the coming season to make room for the St. Louis Browns. The League managers say that the Browns will be in the League before many seasons have gone by.—[New York Sun. — — ͤꝗ2—ä— — JEM CARNEY. Record ofthe English Champion Who Ex- pects to Do“ McAuliffe.

James Carney’s maiden battle was with Paddy Giblin, in Birmingham. The battle was for $50 a side, and Carney won it in 45 minutes, knocking his man down and out in the thirty- ninth round. Giblin was dy twenty pounds the larger man. He beat Paddy Lee for $50 a side, the battle occupying zu. 25m., during which forty-three rounds were fought. This fight was at 8 st. 12—14 pounds. His next battle was with Pat Downey, whom he beat in six rounds, thirty-five minutes be- ing the time. The men fought for $125a side, Carney scaling 122 lbs. and Downey 136 ibs. The battle with the famous ‘‘Punch’’ Callow took place at Lower Hope Point, down the Thames.

He ved at Teheran in December, 1885, and remained there till March, 1886, when he started through Afghanistan to Inaia. The British authorities were desirous of preventing his ride through Afghanistan, not from political reasons, as has been gener- ally supposed, bit because the Afghans are very anatical, especially against Chris- tians, and it was feared he would be murdered. He took his departure ve quietly from Teheran, however, an crossed the Afgban frontier about 300 miles away from the usual route to Herat. Within 800 miles of the Indian frontier he was arrested and carried back to Herat, whence he returned to the Uaspian Sea and took a steamer for Con- stantinople. The Russian authorities, regard- ing him as a probabie spy, had prevented him from riding through Turkestan. From Con- stantinople Mr. Stevens went to Egypt and crossing that country by rail embarked on the Red Sea, landed in India and wheeled upto the nearest possibie point on the Indian frontier, tothe plain where he had been stopped in Afghanistan and thence down to Calcutta. Proceeding from Calcutta to Canton by steamer he started to wheel across China towards Japan, but after trav- elling 500 miles hie progresa was summarily interrupted atatown called Kingan Foo, on the Kan-Kiang, where a mob of 2,000 Celestiais assailed him and two soldiers, who had been sent with bim as a guard. He escaped a vio- lent death by. :‘rashing into the Yamen, or official inciosure of the town, to which his uards directed him. He was struck about the body and buadly bruised by a number of the missiles. He was spirited out of the Yamen in the night time by the authorities and placed upon a boat, by which he descended the Kan-Kiang to its unction with the great river of China, the ang-Tse-Kiang, where he took a steamer to From thére he crossed to Naga- to Yokohoma, where he embarked for San Francisco. He arrived in San Francisco on January 7 last, having made the circuit of the world in about two years and nine months. PARALYZED THE PKOPLE. Mr. Stevens related these particulars of his ourney to a Post-DIsPATCH correspondent ast night. He was cordially received by the wheelmen throughout Europe as far as East Bulgaria and was an object of attention to both press and populace. At Belgrade, the capital of Servia, he found a wheelmen’s club, which welcomed him and sent a member to journey with him tothe frontier of Bulgaria. After leaving Servia hesaw no more wheelmen until he reached India. His appearance in Turkey wasa cause of eat wonderment to the 1 At Angorla, in Asia Minor, he dined by invitation with the Governor, who issued a proclamation calling on the peo- ple to come out and witness his de- parture. He found the Turks very bos- pitable and generally well disposed. One day, however, two Koords, the nomads of Asia Minor, attempted to rob him on the road, but the production of a revolver put them to flight. Before leaving Oonstantino- ple he took the precaution to havea number of gold Turkish coins covered with cloth and sewed on his clothing as buttons to provide ainst the robbery of his — wallet. In China he found the people very ill disposed. They gave bim wrong directions and regarded him with evident suspicion. In addition to their general dislikdof foreigners they were — por excited at that time over the rencn operations in Tenguin and suspected himasa spy. He found no difficulty, how- ever, in getting accommodation at night time, and his passports from the Chinese author- ities at Canton made it compulsory on the inn- keepers to receive him. The cost of a night’s lodging with supper and breakfast is to a Chinaman about 10 cents, but the innkeeper charged him 50 cents.

Brookes at the Presbyterian pastors’ meeting a week ago, that the actor, Murdoch, had told him that he (Murdoch) would kick the average actor out of bis house and that he would not let his daughter attend the theater, has attracted wide-spread attention. As published in the Post-DIsPaTOoH this re- markable attack onthe stage has awakened — interest. The daughter of Mr. Murdoch aving written to a person in St. Louis accus- ing Dr. Brookes of cruelly misrepresenting her father, the reverend gentlemun was seen 53 4 Posr- DISPATCH reporter last evening r. Brookes was ust about to leave for Wichita, Kan., where he expects to preach this week, remaining prob- ably over Sunday. Asked for some exact data regarding Murdoch’s statements, Dr. Brookes said: I don't like to say any- thing more about this. I have received a let- ter from Miss Murdoch and have = to the effect that my remarks had evidently been misunderstood. I told her I wanted her to un- derstand thatI didn’t mean to say that her father said he would kick any actor out of bis house, but simply that there was a class of actors whose morals were so bad that he would treatthemso. Of course Mr. Murdoch would receive any re- —— actor as he would any other respect- able person. It was of this particular class that he spoke. Now, about his not allowin his daughter to attend a theater, I understoo Mr. Murdoch to say, not that he would not allow his daughter everto attend a theater, but he would be very careful about the seleo- tion of the place. The history of the talk is brefly that I met Mr. Murdoch inCincinnati in 1861 and formed a friendship for him,and ayear or so later he visited me in St. Louis. He then said he was trying TO QUIT THE STAGE because of the tendencyto replace the old lays of high character with those of a ow moraltone. He had tried to get the pro- fessorship of elocution in Harvard College, but had been rejected because of his con- nection with the stage. He told how one of his pupils had been chosen to the professor- ship over his head, and this hurt him very much. I remember how he was pacing up and down the room at the time he men- tioned the immoralities of the stage, and the class of actors he considered so objection- able. ISaid to him: „Murdoch, you know that if I should say from the puipit one-half of what you have told me, I would be denounced as a bigut.’ He stopped in his walk and replied: ‘I tell you, you cannot set your face too strongly ainst the things I have condemned.’ »Then Mr. urdoch related to me an incident ofa friend of his in Louisville who had left the stage disgusted at its bad character. When this friend was reproached by his acquaintances for attending the theater occasionaily, he answered: ‘I attend just to keep up my disgust.’ That was about the kind of feeling that animated Murdoch. REV. DR. EDWARD COOPER, editor of the Presbyterian organ, the St. Louis Evangelist, speaking on the same theme yes- terday, said: ‘‘Why,1 remember Murdoch told me about the immoralities of the stage. He didn’t tell me he would never let his daughter attend the theater, but he did say he could not make up his mind to train his children for the stage be- cause of its immoralities. Why, Murdoch quit the stage because of its immoralities and lectured for the Y. M. C. A. on that very sub- ject. The way he came to meet with so marty ministers was through his school for elocu- tion he opened at Loveiand, O., a finely ar- ranged institution. A great many preachers went to him thereto secure advantage of his experience in voice culture. The statements to Dr. Brookes were no sur- prise to his congregation, members of which say that he has frequently in the pulpit for many years quoted Murdoch as condemning the stage. Dr. —— — Geo.

Broiling can be done in the oven of the Charter Oak Range or Stove with the Wire Gauze Oven Door, more perfectly than over the live coals. Lay the steak, age, bam or fish on a wire broiler or meat rack, placing it in an ordinary bake pan to catch the dr ppings. Allow it to remain in the oven with the door closed 15 or 20 minutes. No turni Is required. At the end of this time it wi be found nicely cooked ready to serve. THIS Is THE IDEAL WAY TO BROIL MEATS. There is no taint of coal-gas or smoke, and the meats are more tender and better lu flavor than those broiled over the coals.

By Telegraph to the Post~- DISPATCH. EASTON, Pa., February 15.—Teresa Troxell, a young woman of much beauty, but ot doubt- ful reputation, lives in this city. Recently E. P. Walters, a member of one of Easton’s best families, became infatuated with Miss Troxell, and went openly to live with her at her house. The entreaties of his family to leave the woman were of no avail, and on Saturday both Walters and the woman were arrested on criminal charges recognized by the statutes of Pennsylvania. To go to the Justice s office Miss Truxell dressed up as i oing to some grand reception, and alters did the same. The woman carried a bouguet of choice flowers and Walters wore a delicate boutonniere. They were driven to the office inastylish carriage, drawn by two handsome white horses. The turn-out made & sensation in the town and crowds of curious ple followed it to the court-room. After a earing Walters wus heid in $600 to answer the charge against him, and the woman in $500.
