Louls, if such acting president shall be satisfied that there is reasonabl& ground . for such suspicion, he may issue a warrant to search for such property. . (Laws 1867, p. 179, sec. 8.) SECTION 31, ARTICLE 29, CHARTER CITY OF 8ST. LOUIS—WARRANT, HOW DIRECTED.—Said warrant shall be directed to some officer of the police force, and shall command him to search the place where such property is sus- pected to be concealed, which place shall be designated and the property par- ticularly described in such warrant, and to bring such stolen property before the police justice, or some justice of the peace of the City of St. Louis, and upon the return of such warrant to such justice he shall proceed thereon in like manner as if such warrant had been by him issued. (Laws 1867, p. 179, sec. 10.) SECTION 4304, ARTICLE ll, REVISED STATUTES 1889.—Upon complaint be- ing made, on oath, in writing, to any officer authorized to issue process for the apprehension of offenders, that any personal property has been stolen or em- bezzled, and that the complainant suspects that such property is concealed in any particular house or place, if such magistrate shall be satisfied that there is redsonable ground for such suspicion, he shall issue a warrant to search for Buch property. Interpreting the foregoing law, the Supreme Court of Missouri ruled, 72-Mo., 406, that: “A search warrant, regular upon its face, issued by a justice of the peace, will protect an officer executing it although the affidavit upon which it is founded be not in compliance with the statute.”’ - DOHDOOOGODDHOL@ OOGD-S DODD D HOG O@HDIOODSGO-O-9GOOOO!SOGOOOG-4 The Post-Dispatch to-day presents posi- ter will be probed to the bottom and every- tive proof that Detectives Joyce and Bam- brick: made public, i vm fie is the story in brick were the officers who invaded the | ref; it follows in otal: | Private apartments of a_woman at 6905 West PROOF POSITIVE. | Belle plave and secur possession of a number of letters that were the private property of this woman.

The Kentucky is a cold-water ship. A few months ago it was announced that a bottle of the finest old Kentucky whisky was to be used instead of champagne in the cere- mony of christening the vessel named in honor of the Bourbon State.’ There was a storm of protests from temperance people throughout the country. Champagne was bad enough, but whisky was _ infinitely worse. Then it was learned that the rare old liquor that had been sent to Washing- ton for this purpose had been placed where it would do more efficient service than Sean ane the bow of an unsympathetic oat, The result was that the Kentucky was christened with water from the famous fering, on the Kentucky: farm where Abra- ham Lincoln was born, Mrs. Winslow created not a Httle tnterest some weeks 7° by positively declining to christen the earsarge with water. Ina letter to Mrs. R. H. Jones of Norfolk, presi- dent of the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union of Virginia, Mrs. Winslow stated that she personally would be willing to fol- low Miss Bradley’s example, but that her husband preferred that she use champagne, and in deference to his wishes she would respect the time-honored custom, The launching of the Kentucky occurred at 11:25, the sponsor being Miss Christine Bradley, the beautiful 18-year-old daughter famous baccarat trials. The man-is known to quite a number of prominent persons in St. Louis as Alfred Sloan, among whom he has claimed to be an Englishman. His real name is Solomon and he is an English Jew. Solomon is probably # years of age, speaks five languages fluently and has been highly educated. His father, the elder Sol- omon, is a London banker, whose annual contribution to the Charing Cross: Hospital is 500 pounds, in return for which his muni- ficence is emblazoned on a tablet in the wall of the Institution. He has a brother in the wholesale Iquor business in New York City. Solomon is also a brother-in-law of Mr. Marshall McDonald, the well known crimi- nal lawyer, who has exhausted his patience and qpeetcern ae money to rescue the man from/the morphine habit and put him in a way to earn an honest living. Mr. McDon- ald has only known Solomon a year and has little confidence in the stories of high birth and connection, but the man has letters and decuments in his poss-s#slen calculated either to prove his claim or deceive the very elect. It is but recently the lawyer became aware of Solomon’s real name and that he is a Jew. “Something over a year ago,” says Mr. McDonald, ‘“‘my wife received a letter from her sister, Miss Ellen Evans, then living in Texarkana, Tex., stating that she had met and married a man from California named Alfred Sloan, a real estate dealer.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 1898. | VIENNA, March 2.—The Post-Dispatch to have mastered the secret of sex selection, and asked him whether the Countess of Warwick had been under his treatment.. Dr. Schenk answered: “I don’t know who the Countess of War- wick is. I never heard her name before.” “Have you treated any members of the ' British aristocracy?” he was asked. “No,”’ he said, “I have never treated any one out of Austria.”’ Dr. Schenk then volunteered this state- ment: if “Il am mow engaged on a case which. it succeeds, will create a sensation.” He would not, of course, mention any names.

WEYLER, IT IS SAID, MADRID, March 24.—A rumor is current in Madrid that Gen. Weyler ts about to re- | turn to Cuba, and it is said that if he does go it will be under reappointment to the position of Commander of the Spanish troops. It is said that the resignation of Gen. Blanco has been in the hands of the Cabinet for some time, to be made public at any time it may think best. There appears to be little doubt that if hostilities between Spain and the United | States break out, Weyler will be at once | placed In command of the forces in Cuba, /}as even the ministry which deposed him is forced to admit that he is more thoroughly qualified to conduct movements against the United States than any other Spanish | General, being more thoroughly informed of strategic possibilities of Cuba as well as of the defenses of the American coast. It is thought in diplomatic circles that it is intended to send Weyler to Cuba at ence. so that he will be on hand to take command at the first act of war, if war comes. The formal announcement of his appointment to his old pesition is held back at present, it is thought, because It is con- sidered certain to put a certain end to peace when é.

THURSDAY—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—MARCH 24, 1898. 9 AMOTHERSAUTHORITY see JUDGE KLEIN RULES THAT Hi SAS NONE WITHOUT THE CON- SENT OF HER HUSBAND. THE BERNAYS DAMAGE SUIT. The Right of the Mother to Permit Her Child’s Nude Picture to Be Published Denied. All the evidence in the damage suit of Anita May George against Dr. A. C. Ber- nays and the Anti-Kamnia Co. was closed Thursday at noon and then the attorneys on both eldes went to work arguing with Judge Klein as to the instructions to be given to the jurv. The case presents a law feature new to St. Louis courts, as far as the question of the invasion of privacy is concerned, The plaintiffs maintain that no one has a right to publish any picture, or copy of a picture, of any person, espect: ially when the picture portrays that person in a nude state. In this instance the privacy invaded was that of a little girl of six who was too young to know any thing about it. The defendants contend that the publica- tion was made with the full knowledge and consent of the mother of the child, Dr, Berneys testified that some time after the operation the mother brougiit the little girl to his office to show him how well sh was doing, and how successful the oOpera- tion had been. He testified that he told Mrs. George he wanted a picture of the child, and that she gave him two, one an ordinary ) every-day photograph and ‘the other a pic- ture of the child bare to the waist, show- ing the knife wounds of previous opera- tions. “This won ‘'t do,”” the doctor testified that he said, “I want a picture showing my op- eration, so that I can print it with an ac- count of the case. Then he says Mrs. George consented to take the child to the photographer and have the picture taken as he wanted it. The mother admitted that she had un- dressed the child and help to pose her before the camera for Dr. Bernays’ picture. She denied, however, giving him any copies of other photographs. When it came to instructions, Mr. Frank M. Estes, attorney for Dr. Bernays, wanted the Court to instruct the jury to find for the defendant if they believed that the pub- lication of the picture was made with the knowledge and consent of the mother. “The mother has no authority to con- gent,”’ said Judge Klein. “‘Under the law the mother cannot in any way dispose of or contro] the person of her minor child, if the father is living, unless she can show that she has his consent.’ Mr. Estes agreed to change his instruc- tions #0 as to make it the consent of the parents, but CS. Jones, for the Anti-Kamnia company re fused to amend his, in which the mother’s consent only was referred to, and the Court refused his instruction.

WASHINGTON, March 24.—Senator Thurston’s mpetch in the Senate to-day added strength and impetus to the people’s demand for armed intervention in Cuba. While the Senator traversed in part the same ground covered by Proctor and Gallinger in their addresses, he went much farther in his conclusions. He proclaimed that the time for intervention was here. “No greater reason can exist for it,” he said, “to-morrow than exists to-day. We cannot refuse to accept the responsibility which is put upon us. Cuba’s cause is the cause of liberty; this is a revolt of a people against the oppression and barbarism of a nation, which while called Christian had butchered more people than all the other nations of the earth combined.” He pointed to the Cuban plank of the Republican platform and counseled the President to see that the will of the party and the people was obeyed. Mr. Thurston’s first sentence, that he “appeared by command of silent lips to present his views once and for aJl on the Cuban situation,” containing as it did a delicate and touching refer- ence to his recent terrible bereavement, commanded instant attention. Senator Thurston said: Mr. President, I am here by com- mand of silent lips Cuban situation. sensational from me. to speak once and for all upon the I trust that no one has expected anything God forbid that the bitterness of a per- sonal loss should induce me to color in the slightest degree the statement that I feel it my duty to make.

I Christian humanity and responsibility, would shirk this task if I could, but I dare not. satisfy m'y conscience except by speaking, and speaking now. Mr. Thurston said that he had gone to Cuba firmly believ- ing that the condition of affairs on the fsland had been greatly exaggerated, and that he had directed his efforts In the first instance to the exposure of the supposed exaggerations. that an over statement of the hor- He was prepared, not only to adopt every word of the careful, concise and specific statement of the Senator from Vermont (Mr. Proctor), but he was even convinced that he had understated the facts. had concluded, however, rors of the situation was impossible. Mr. Thurston then tersely summarized his observations and conclusions as follows: After three years of warfare and the use of 225,000 Spanish roops, Spain has lost control of every foot of Cuba not sur- “unde by an actual intrenchment and protected by a forti- | 4 picket line.

Most of these people were old men, women and children. The revolutionists are in absolute and almost peaceful pos- session of nearly one-half of the island, including the eastern Provinces of Santiago de Cuba and Pyerto Principe. Provinces of Santiago they have established a form of gov- ernment, levy and collect taxes, maintain armies, and gen- erally levy a tax or tribute upon the principal plantations in the en- In these is neither cul- 400,000 self-supporters, simple, peaceable, defenseless country people were driven from their homes in the agricultural portions of the Spanish Provinces to the cities and imprisoned upon the barren waste outside the residence portions of the cities and within the lines of intrenchment established a little way be- humble homes were burned, laid their live Slow A conservative estimate indicates that 210,000 of these people have already perished from starvation The Government of Spain has never contributed one dollar to house, shelter, feed or provide maintenance for these, its own citizens. Such a spectacle exceeds the scenes of the In- ferno as painted by Dante. There has been no amelioration of the situation excepi through the charity of the people of the United States. There has been no diminution in the death rate among these recon- centrados except as the death supply is constantly diminished. There is no relief and no hope except through the continued charity of the American people until peace has been fully re- stored in the island. Spain cannot put an end to the existing condition. She can- not conquer the insurgents. She cannot re-establish her sov- ereignty over any considerable portion of the interior of the island. The revolutionists, while able to maintain themselves, cannot drive the Spanish army from the fortified seacoast towns. CHAOS OF DEVASTATION WHOSE END NO MAN FORETELISA. The situation then, is not war as we understand it, but a chaos of devastation and depopulation of undefined duration, whose end no man can see. In detailing the incidents and reciting the facts that came under his observation, Mr. Thurston said he had no desire to deal in horrors. “If I had my way,” said he, “I would shield the American public even from the photographic repro- ductions of the awful scenes that I viewed in all their original ghastliness.”’ Of the 225,000 soldiers Spain had sent to Cuba less than 60,000 were now available for duty. The remainder. are dead, sick in hospitals or returned to Spain incapacitated. It is currently reported that 37,000 are now sick in the hospitals on the island. The army was in poor condition and under lax discipline. “I do not believe,” said he, “‘that the entire Spanish army in Cuba could stand an engagement in the open field against 20,000 well disciplined American soldiers.” Of the Spanish soldiers, he said that they, of all people on earth, would most gladly welcome any result that would enable them to return to their homes, The pictures in the American newspapers of the starving reconcentrados are true. They can all be duplicated by the thousands. I never saw, and please God, I may never again see, 8° deplorable a sight as the reconcentrados in the suburbs of Matanzas. I can never forget to my dying day the hope- less anguish in their despairing eyes. Huddled about their little bark huts, they raised no voice of appeal to us for alms as we went among them. Men, women and children stand silent, famishing. Their only appeal comes from their sad eyes, through which one looks as through an open window Into their agonizing souls. In Matanzas the people had done all they possibly could do for the reconcentrados, but it was too true that many Ma- tanzas people who resided In fine houses scarcely knew where their next meal was to come from. The Government was will- ing that the reconcentrados should repass the trochas to their homes, but the greag majority were physically unable to go. Their fate was a slow death by starvation. The Governor of Matanzas, Mr. Thurston said, could see no end to this con- dition of affairs and could suggest no relief except through the United States. THE TIME HAS COME WHEN MUSKETS MUST GO WITH FOOD. The Government of Spain has not and will not appropriate one dollar to save these people. They are now being attended and nursed and administered to by the charity of the United States. Think of the spectacle. We are feeding these citizens of Spain; we are nursing their sick; we are saving such as can be saved, and yet there are those who still say it Is right for us to send food, but we must keep hands off. I say that the time has come when muskets ought to go with the food. I shall refer to these horrible things no further. They are there. God pity me; I have seen them; they will remain in my mind forever—and this is almost the twentieth century. Christ died 1900 years ago, and Spain is a Christian nation: she has set up more crosses in more lands, beneath more Skies, and under them has butchered more peopte than all the Other nations of the earth combined. Europe may tolerate her existence as long as the people of the old world wish. God grant that before another Christmas morning the last of Spanish tyranny and oppression will have vanished from the Western Hemisphere. Discussing the remedy which should be applied to the evils he found, Mr. Thurston said: I counseled silence and moderation from this floor when the passion of the nation seemed at white beat over the destruc- tion of the Maine, but it seems to me the time for action has now come. Not action in the Maine case. I hope and trust that this Government will take action on the Cuban situation entirely outside of the Maine case. When the Maine report is received, if it be foun@ that our ship and sailors were blown up by some outside explosive, we wil] have ample reparation without quibble or delay; and if the explosion can be traced to Spanish official sources there will be such swift and — Spies ei BT RR punishment adjudged as will remain a warning to the world forever. LET THE PRESIDENT PUT HIS FEET ON THE PARTY PLATFORM. “What shall the United States do, Mr. President?” For answer I, as a Republican, turn to the last national platform of his party, which declared that ‘The United States should actively use its influence and good offices to restore peace and give independence to Cuba.” In accepting the nomination tendered him by the conven- tion which had adopted the Cuban plank with a mighty shout, William McKinley had said: “The platform adopted by the Republican convention has received my careful consideration and has my unqualified approval.” Twice within the past two years I have voted for a resolu- tion recognizing the belligerency of the Cuban insurgents, but ? I am eatisfied it is now too late to accord them belligerent rights, or even merely to recognize the independence of the Cuban republic. Our platform demands that the United States shall actively use its influence for the independence of the tsland. I am not here to criticize the present Administration; I yield to no man living in my respect, my admiration for, and my confidence in the judgment, the wisdom and the patriotism, the Amerit- canism of William McKinley, When he entered upon his ad- ministration he faced a difficult situation. It was his duty to proceed with care and caution. Mr. Thurston then recounted the steps which the President had taken upon the Cuban question during the past year and pronounced his course wise, statesmanlike, and in accordance with the diplomatic usages of the world. It was the plain duty of the President of the United States to give to the Libera! Ministry of Spain a reasonable time in which to test its proposed autonomy. That time has been given. Autonomy ts conceded the wide world over to be a conspicuous failure. The situation in Cuba has only changed for the worse. Sagasta is powerless; Blanco is powerless to put an end to the conflict, to rehabilitate the island, or to relieve the suffer- ing, starvation and distress. THE UNITED STATES CANNOT SHIRK DUTY TO LIBERTY’S CAUSE. The time for action has then come. No greater reason for it can exist to-morrow than exists to-day. Every hour’s delay only adds another chapter to the awful story of misery and death. Only one power can intervene—the United States of America. ; It was her glorious example which Inspired the Cubans of Cuba to raise the flag of liberty in her eternal hills. We can- not refuse to accept this responsibility which the God of the Universe has placed upon us as the one great power in the new world. What shall our action be? Mr. Thurston briefly adverted to the propositions of recog. nizing the belligerency or the independence of the Cubans only to say that it was too late for either. As to annexation he said: “God forbid. I would oppose annexation with my latest breath. People of Cuba are not our people; they cannot as- similate with us, and beyond all that, I am utterly and unal- terably opposed to any departure from the declared policy of the fathers which would start this republic for the first time upon a career of conquest and dominion utterly at variance with the declared purposes and the manifest destiny of popu- lar government. Let the world understand that the United States does not propose to annex Cuba, that ft {is not seeking a foot of Cuban soil or a dollar of Spanish treasure.” As to the plan for the United States to guarantee Cuban purchase bonds, Mr. Thurston declared: “The American people will never consent to the payment of one dollar to the guaranteeing of one bond as the price pald to Spain for her relinquishment of the island she has s0 Wan- tonly outraged an@dévastated.” INTERVENTIOY THAT MEANS “THE CRUSHING OF SPAIN’S RULE. “Mr. President. there Is only one action possible, if any, is taken—that is intervention for the independence of the isiand, intervention that means the landing of an American army on Cuban soil, the deploying of an American fleet off the harbor of Havana, intervention which says to Spain ‘Leave the island, withdraw your soldiers, leave the Cubans, these brothers of ours in the new world, to form and carry on gcovernment for themselves.’ Such intervention on our part would not of it- self be war. It would undoubtedly lead to war. But if war came it would come by act of Spain in resistance of the liberty and the independencé of the Cuban people.”’ He maintained that of all people on the island, the native Cubans were the best qualified and fitted for government. Mr. Thurston paid a high tribute to the Government for Qs work it has @&complished in preparing for any emergency, and, speaking of Congress, said: “We are notyin session to hamper or cripple the President: we are here to advise and assist him. Congress can alone levy taxes, and to this Congress the united people of this broad land, from sea to sea, from lake to gulf, look te voice v “e wishes and execute their will. ? «CONTINUED ON PAGE TWO) ; —<—i \ ee pee ol ee ; * : | ww te + w ‘ ¢ : | : : Pure Fruit Butters—Apple.

The election, according to Judge Zachritz, was not proven because the minutes of the Election Board meeting ordering it were not produced. A certified copy of the proclamation ordering the election, made public in print, was produced, be- sides the pol! books and returns, and these to a mind not alto- gether technical seem to constitute good legal proof of the fact. Would Judge Zachritz rule that in the absence of these min. ules the present School Board has no legal existence? That would seem to be a logically necessary conclusion from this ruling. Cases like this weaken public confidence in judicial and prosecuting officers and encourage evil doers.

Mr. John Wanamaker, one time Postmaster General, but best known as the promoter of a huge campaign fund, ts run- ning for Goverrmer of Pennsylvania as the candidate of the decent clement. He is fighting Matt Quay, the eminent finan- cler, who was once treasurer of that commonwealth. Mr. Wanamaker eat for a long time in darkness, but he has peen a great light. He finds that there are some problems ‘which cannot be solved by money. He has learned that moral principle te still a vital thing, even in Pennsylvania, and shows a disposition to tle to the right and make war upon iniquity. This is well. Mr. Wanamaker bas hitherto overrated the power and worth of mere money and has been inclined to mistake a decent show for the substance of things. But if he has turned about and will bring fruits meet for repentance he will be forgiven. Let him hold fast to his new faith and he may yet be-invited to @ good seat at the feast. — - = It might be well to appoint a committee of reputable citizens to notify Judge Zachritz’s court that a legal election was held in St. Louis on May 18, 1897.

Commenting on the failure of the Interstate Commerce law a corporation organ remarks; “The Gttempt to regulate the interstate business of railways has broken down, just as the State attempts broke down, because it is opposed to the su- preme law of this country, which, by the agency of the courts, guarantees to eVery man-—end to every cornporation—the right to manage Als own business.” In dther words, the railway and other corporations of this country which owe their existence to Soclety, and in which the people have large equity and interest, may do what they please, and If the people don't like ft the people be d Hardly. they must be made to manage their business with reference to the law.

AN INDECENT SPECTACLE. In an interview in the Post-Dispatch to-day Mr. Judson directs attention to the extraordinary spectacle presented by the “jamming through” of franchise Bilis in the Munitipal As- sembiy while the question of the validity of+«ttte Julian law regulating the disposal of municipal franchises js pending in the Supreme Court. The decision will affect every franchise measure passed by the Municipal Assembly. As the Post-Dispatch has heretofore said, it was disgraceful disregard of public intefests for the Municipal Assembly to ig- nore this law, designed for the protection of the public in the granting of franchises. The Municipal Assembly should have acted in accordance with the law and thrown the burden of proving its validity on the franchise grabbers. It is a reflec- tion on the honesty and good faith of every member of the Municipal Assembly who has voted for a franchise measure that a contrary course has been followed and that the public interests have been willfully sacrificed in the interest of pro- moters and speculatorg. 3ut with the question of the validity of this law now pend- ing in the Supreme Court and being hurried to a decision with extraordinary speed, the “jamming through” of grabs and Steals is indecent.

MERCHANTS’ TICKETS FRAUD. The Scheme Fully Exposed ana Meas- ures Taken to Stop the Practice. All the facts in the recent fraudulent ma&nipulation of interstate mérchants’ re- ec@ipt coupons have been laid bare by the aseociation. The plan was #imple. ‘A merchant coming to St. Louis te buy goods pays full fare to the city, taking a receipt when buying the ticket. After meking his purchases the whelegale firm he patronizes certifies that he is a customer of the house, and on the presentation of the receipt, properly vised by fhe Interstate Merchants’ Associa- tion, he is W®ued a return ticket at one- third rate. Taking advantage of this a Kansas City ticket ecalpes, When chance travelers asked for a ticket to St. Louis, told them to buy from the rafiroad company and take a receipt coupon. The scalper then bought the receipt for $1, and the traveler saved that amount. fhe scalper sent the cou- pons to an agent here, who induced an em- Ploye of the I. B. Rosenthal Millinery ‘Co. to have them vieed, for a consideration, by the Interstate Merchants’ Association. Mr. C. A, Singer, eecretary of the asso- ciation, grew spicious of the frequency He discovered the plot and clinched it by trapping the ticket scalper into making negotiations to let him itnto the deal. At a meeting of the board of directore of the assoclation Wednesday the evidence was heard. Mr. Rosenthal of the millinery company stated that the firm knew nothing of what their emplove was doing, and on his failure to make sat‘sfactory expiana- tions his resignation had been demanded: The firm was fully exonerated, and it is thought the exposure and the discharge of gs ~ ge % cee eras will put a stop .O any urther attempt at f maniputation. | . ihn cal e association adopted a resolution in- dorsing and ufging the pazsage of the anti-scalping bill now before Gongress.

The circumstances of the ving of the ‘@ption to Capt. Anson are as follows: ,\ At the time of the expiration of his con- Sract as manager of the Chicago club, Capt, neon held a number of consultations with A. C. SpxFiing. The latter had long been a #tanch friend and admirer of the Colts’ ader, and was anxious to do anything in is power to show his regard for Anson. Capt. Anson refused to consider any propo- d him in the ensioner upon the Chicago Club, Pais long services. Nevertheless ry to get control of the club whose e oe yere : /to Anson an option on the purchase o had so long managed and many is friends advised that this would be a Gtting climax to his baseball career. Finally, therefore, the Chicago club ~_ he team for the sum of $150,000. The option was to run, it is said, 70 days. Whatever its dura- ; : on, it yet has some time to run, it is said ve weeks. As a further evidence of the possible transfer of the club, it is known that th contract signed by Manager Burns contains }@ clause providing that in case the Chicago team should be sold during the season the terms under which he has signed shall be- come null and void. When Anson secured his the option ““" | friends advised him to make it public, but Just two ene Strift tide contest will ’ ; ) | Dall Anson thought otherwise, It is now learned that a wealthy man, supposed to be a resi- dent of New York City, has interested him- self in Anson's behalf, and the veteran base- layer’s chances of becoming owner of | the hicago-club are very bright. ‘gide for tog pur a | Johnson and Jones Ruled Off. | SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., March 24.—The ‘Chronicle says: Eddie Jones, the jockey land Ollie Johnson, a former trainer o horses, are ruled off the turf.

LOUIS BICYCLE TRACKS. Wp to This Writing All of Them Have : ’ Proven Big Failures Financially. There is a whole lot of money in bicycle tracks in St. Louls. The best bicycle track n America was bullt at South Side Park ast summer. Al! State records were broken on it. Two meetings were held there. On one } By cleared, On the other $30 was lost. So ust $6 was lost on the season's business, to pay nothing o* the money lost in building the track and keeping it In condition to race over. The bicycle venture at South Side Park hes been such a losing one that stock in the corporation own'ng it can he bought for 10 cents on the dollar. One large block of stock was offered this morning for 5 cents ) on the dollar and there were no buyers at : - : @tand as a monument to the Sonly c at. The Pastime Grounds, at De stodiamon of a lot o good fellows, who thouht a bicycle track would pay in Bt. Louls. The record there is money expended, $16,000; money received, On the recent bicycle meets in the Coll. geum the promoters cleared just $11. The ast meet pulled them out of the hole, but ali the profita wentto Michael, an outsider. The trouble with bicycle tracks Is that the men whose benefit they are built for want all th money that Is taken In at the gate, and i they don’t get it they refuse to ride. THE SHOOT AT LONG BRANCH.

According to very latest advices from San California Jockey Club intend to deal se- verely with the crooked jockeys and book- makers who have been doing crooked work at that track this winter. It is said that club has already decided to rule Jockey Eddie Jones off for life, in- definitely suspend Jockey Spencer, deny Joe Rose the privilege of making books on the Oakland track and rule Trainer Ollie John- eon off forever. At the investigation to-night a number of prominent track followers will be given a chance to throw additional light on the crooked work that has been ing on, but the board is fully satisfied of the guilt of Jones, Spencer, Rose and Johnson, and all that remains for the board to do is to an- nounce the punishment. It is said addition- al evidence will be gought to fasten guilt on others tainted by the present scandal. st. uls followers of the races remem- ber Rose well. track like a leech last year, and no man appeared to know better than he when to “hold out’”’ a horse or “lay up ainst one.’’ It was at one time common talk about the Fair Grounds that he had a string around certain jockeys and that when he pulled it they also did some pulling. nest of thieves, and it will be a good thing for the turf if it does, as some shining ex- amples are needed to stop the yellow work that has been going on all winter.

So far Tim Hurst has proven himself the right man in the right pace. Perry Werden, Kuehne and Figgemeyer will join the Minneapolis team after their arrival here. President Watkins is now sure the Pirates will end in the first division unless some- thing unforeseen happens. Hawley is showing good form in the Texas practice, and Cincinnati scribes predict he will do great work this year. Capt. Anson dignifiedly refuses to di§cuss the troubles of the Chicago players in regard to training facilities at Waycross. That story from Chicago, if it proves true, will break many a man’s heart dold Anse will get even with a whole lot people. The Chicagos are going to the seacoast to finish theér practice, and in case of war the “fans” will be uneasy lest Burns’ men be captured by the Spaniards. Manager Stallings is eaid "to be greatly dis- turbed over the difficulty he faces of picking the regular nine from the big lot of (really ordinary) material Philadelphia has. Charley Powers in the Pittsburg News doubts the advisability of making a lethargic player captain, and predicts that Dahlen will not last long. Powers has another guess coming. The season has not started, and Magnate Freedman of the New Ydérk Club-is already at war with some of the newspapers. He has forbidden several reporters admission ‘to the Giants’ practice grounds. Kelley says the reason he did not go South with the Baltimores |s because he contracted stomach trouble last spring in Macon and has been paying doctor bills ever since. If the Say i hear of that there twill be a lot of bad stomachs until they get away from Georgia. “Nichels will not be overworked this year,” says Manager Selee of thé Bostons. “Bergen will do most of our catching, with Yeager to help him out.’’ Selee says Chica- ©, under Burns’ management, should be igher up in the race, but picks Baltimore, Cincinnati, New York and Boston for the first four. “The Washington Club,” Mr. Wagner states, “has expended $62,000 since 1892 in de- veloping young players, and Mercer and Sel- bach are the only first-class men It has in return for this great expenditure, If either of these men could be taken from the Sena- tors by draft how could we replace them? Yet a minor league club should have as much — to the players as Washington or New York. The chief asset of @ ball club is its players, and the right to them should not be limited to one or two years. A fair field and an open market would prevent this injustice and best subserve the interests of both the major and minor league teams.” Cycling Chaff. Midget Michael is still riding race horses. Secretary John McCargo of the Cycle Board of Trade has resigned on account of ill health. Jack Prince is trying to get Baltimore «eae to bulld a bicycle track in that city. Billy Laing is still working on his inter- city road race. Now he is after the road riders of Indianapolis, Pittsburg and Mil- waukee as well as those of Chicago. Hagan and Heckel say they are going to begin building that new track on April 1. And some mean skeptics go so far as to Say that that is a good day to begin such an . undertaking. New York Athletic Club. The new and palatial clubhouse of the New York Athletic Club was opened in New York on Saturday last. The new club- house is perhaps the finest of its kind in America. The club’s first smoker will take place April 2, the annual bicycle dinner will be given on April 15 and the first la- dies’ day April 16. Nat Hudson’s New Jcb.

They Prove the Winner a Race Horse of the Very Highest Caliber and Top Speed. — Presbyterian won the Crescent City derby yesterday, the first derby of the year, and best of all foxy Tommy Burns won it with- out showing up his horse. The press dispatches say he came through a small gap near the finish and in a drive won from Joe Shelby, with Dinsmore third, But they, perhaps, only tell half the story. The race was a mile and an eighth, and Burns trailed his field until the last six- teenth of the journey. Then he came away, and what appeared to be a driving finish he won by a length. In all probability the boy could have come away at any stage of the game, but he was wise and did not show the people just how fast Presbyterian could go. The track wes fast and the time 1:55%. Tristan holds the record for that distance, having negotiated it at Mor- ris Park in 1891 in 1:51%. The Harlem record is 153%. At St. Louis, Yo Tambien and As- signee hold the track record for the dis- tance, 1:54. So even granting that Presby- terian wus going his very best, he Tan @ great race, and proved himself a racehorse of the best quality. Wednesday's Track Winners.

A epecial from West Baden Springs says the St. Louis Browns will leave there for St. Louls this morning, arriving home to- night. The Louisvilles also appear to have nad enough of West Baden, as after only a week’s etay there they to-day pull out for home. The wet weather prevented the Browns | from taking any field practice at West Baden, ‘but the good water and baths there and plenty of exercise on the covered bi- cycle track has placed them in fine fix, and they will show up well when they make their first appearance on the field. President Muckenfuse is very sore at the action of Donnelly and Esper. Those two are the only ones that have not yet re- ported to the club. All the others have not only reported but have shown a wonderful willingness to work and get in condition. The practice gamea at Sportsman’s Park will be commenced as soon as the grounds are fit to play on. The recent fall of snow and iast night’s freeze up have left the field in bad shape, but a good, hot sun will; soon put it in good shape. ?

Said They day-School Scholar—This Is De- mied and It Is Supposed “Will” Was the Donor. Josephine Aut, the 16-year-old girl who ‘ Jeft her home at 2912 North Broadway, last | Sunday, to go to church, and failed to re- | turn, is still rissing. . Her mother, Mrs, N. E. Aut, though still HRNonplussed, has unearthed a clew which Suggests that a mysterious young man may ) be in some way responsible for Josie’s dis- appearance, All she knows is that his name is Will | The girl's mother had never heard of “Will” up to the time of her daughter's disappear- - ance. Josephine was a regular.attendant at the ' Bunday-school of the Trinity M. E, Church at Tenth and North Market streets. Her parents were poorer than most of the i @ther attendants. She met children who ' were in better circumstances than she, and * ghe became at once ambitious and unhap- py. Her home was unattractive to her. She frequently complained bitterly of her low From a care-free girl she became a dreamer, then a grumbler, and finally a willful deceiver of her parents. Her dissatisfaction was first evidenced about the same time she began bringing beautiful bouquets of roses home from Sunday-school three months ago. When her mother questioned her about the flowers, she said one of the girls who attended the Sunday-school Was the daugh- ter of a florist and brought flowers to her classmates. Josephine, on several occasions, did not ' veturn from f§unday-schoo) until nearly dark. She told her mother she remained for the church service, and afterwards went home with her Sunday-school teacher, Mrs. William Watkins, 1500 St. Louis avenue. Mrs. Watkins saye that on the days ' Josephine remained away from home dur- ing the afternoon she was not at her house. She says also that Josephine did not get the bouquets at Sunday echool, but brought them there with her, and when questioned said they wére given her by a young man named ill. Josephine srequently spoke to her teacher of a “Cousin Lydia,’’ who, ehe said, lived on Easton avenue. On two occasions she said she was not the daughter of the Auts, but that her real name wae Klehmeyer. Mrs. Watkins copld not induce her to give a@ reason for making this statement, Mrs. Aut says the girl has no “Cougin Lydia.” Bab ive utp had a cousin of that name, but she died three years ago. o weeks ago Josephine told her mother she had a position in a down-town dry goods store, She left home as if to go to work ‘every morning, but would pass the day at Mrs. Watkins’ home. She told Mrs. Watkins a nae Lydia” Bhe sp was living with her sin Lydia,”’ e spoke fre “Tincle Deve.’ poke quently of her Mrs. Aut says the girl has an Uncle Dave near Brownstown, Fayette Co., Ill, where Mrs. Aut’'s father, James Deaton, aiso lives, Josephine was at her grandfather’s home for several weeks a year ago, Mrs. Aut thinks she may be there, but would fee) re- assured if she knew the full name and the whereabouts of the mysterious “Will.” NOMINATED OFFICERS.

MAKING. MONEY WAS A LARGE INCOME FROM HIS PRACTICE OF LAW IN DENVER. MRS. TAYLOR GETS HER DECREE The Husband Made an Agreement to Pay Her $500 a Month Until the Amount Reaches $150,000. In granting a decree of divorce to Mrs. Mae L. Taylor of 8t. Louls the New York “courts have directed that her husband, Mor- timer. F. Taylor, shall pay alimony in the | sum of $150,000, in installments of $500 a | | | ‘mother and daughter, ot “a + $ « ad rf IH al 2 ee t, on ;* . « 2 _ —_—- : Megs ech e ‘ te# : 4 y . - 7 TT ot © com weit ey _ a os Ven * 4 >; é ’ , at 7 y- $ I . - month. During his residence in this city Mr. Tay- lor always had a good income, ranging from $10,000 to $12,000 a year, but he never Saved a dollar. Clever as he was in the Promotion of enterprises and in the legal Profession he seemed not to care for money, reveling merely in the excitement of mak- ing it. Hence the general inquiry: How can Mr. Taylor pay the amount the courts de- cree he shall hand over to his former wife? A friend of his in this city says: “‘Moprti- mer Taylor has a splendid income, butt néver @ny accumulations, He can pay Mrs. Taylor a month. In fact I know he has paid her that amount voluntarily from the day they separated, and he would have no objection to paying her more if he had it. Everybody in St. Louls who knows him is aware that he puts no value on wealth. “In Denver he is a member of the firm of Wells, Taylor & Taylor, his partners be- ing his brother and Judge Wells. The broth; er has been in practice at Denver for more than 2 years. The income of the firm from fis law business is quite large. “Aside from, that, Denver is a city of tn- numerable mining enterprises and legiti- snate fields of profit, where such a man as Mortimer Taylor is certain to take advan- tage of opportunities. I know that two years @zgo he sold a mine for $30,000, and it had not cost him over $000. His speculations are al- ways legitimate, and he makes.-money with the greatest ease, “But he hasn't any such sum as $150,000 and never will have. The decree of court might as well have been for $1,000,000. Tay- lor will pay his wife the $00 a month, per- haps as long as she lives. If she should live 20 years he will have paid her $120,000. The chances are against her living that jong, even. So, you see, Taylor could very wellJmake an agreement of that kind, for as it is only carrying forward/a voluntary compact he has met since he and his wif? weparated, no hardship is entailed.” Mrs. Mae Taylor is living with her Jacqueline, now 19 ears old, at the Waldorf-Astoria, New ork. The mother is a Glasgow, and all were reared in this city. The marriage took lace here in 1875, Archbishop Ryan per- orming the ceremony. Mr. Taylor wag? the leader in the Democratic Legislature of 1879, a smooth, eloquent speaker, but a peoe olitician. He became éfiamored of rs. Cora Parsons Tyler, wife of George Cc. Tyler, New York City, and a great scan- dal resulted one day when the amour was discovered. Mr. is Ang has made no defense of his wife's suits. He admits her allegations and agrees to the alimony named. In every possible way he has thrown himself on the merey of Mrs. Taylor and in the far city ou Denver ig ONT Ya and his for- unes. ITS TAIL MAY BE SEEN. Astronomers Measure the Progress of the New Perrine Comet. SAN JOSE, Cal, March 24.—The comet that was discovered last Sunday morning by Assistant Astronomer Perrine of Lick Ob- servatory is now just visible to the naked eye by reason of its distinct celluiar nucleus and tail. It isan easy object for a small tel- escope. It is situated in the northern con- stellation Pegasus and is moving north- ward and eastward somewhat more than a degree a day. The elements of its orbit have Deen computed by Prof, Hussey and Per- rine. They think that the comet passed Per!- hélion March 18, at a distance of more than 100,000,000 miles from the sun, and that it Is now about the same distancé from the earth.

PITTSBURG, Pa., March 24.—A eudden and decided fall in temperature checked the flow in the headwaters streams this morn- ing and the effect of this was soon appar- ent in the rivers here. After reaching feet, the waters began to recede and is now falling rapidly. At 10 o’clock it had de- clined one foot, the gauge showing 29 feet. The swell while not quite equaling the flood of 1891, was the most destructive known since the ever-memorable one of Feb- ruary, 1884. The financial logs will run up well into the hundreds of thousands. It will not be confined to property destroyed, ewept away and damaged. Thousands of workmen have been temporarily thrown out of employment, and the aggregate of the wages they will lose will probably equal the not exceed it. The exact amount, however, cannot be told for several days, as all the lowlands of the two cities are under water, and it will be a week or more before business in the sections visited by the freshet hag re- sumed its normal conditions. “The major part of the flood’s devastation ig above SteOUTe, oS the Allegheny River. In Sharpsburg ilivale and Etna there were many bad washouts. Al! the rail- roads centering in Pittsburg and Allegheny were crippled, especially the Pittsburg & Western and West Pennsyvania roads. Op- erations on these two roads are practically enanenane and may not be resumed for a w eek. No loss of life has been reported, but many narrow escapes from drowning were expe- rienced. , In fact the lower parts of every street are more or less submerged, but the deepest water covers that part of the city at the Point, where there are upward of 600 fami- lies living. Many of these last night were walled in by two and three feet of wa'ter, and there was no way out or in except by means of skiffs and wis. The Exposition Building is submerged and the damage will be at ieast 35000. On the the warehouses, factories and mills along the entire river front were un- der several feet of water and operations completely suspended. On McKean street, where a large number of Polish families are living, the water is nearly up to the second floors, and the Occu- pants of the houses are going to and from their houses in boats. On the Allegheny side the water covered direct lose on property, if indeed, it does. : for miles up the river. There is « total suspension of work at all the mills along the Allegheny River. om 6000 to 6000 workingmen are thrown out of work on account of the flood. The mills will not resume work until the water recedes. The loss will be greater to the thousands of employes who are idle than to the employers, as very little damage will be done to the machinery by the water. Nearly every railroad entering Pittsburg is crippled by the floo&s. Freight traffic on the roads going West is completely paralized. Not for 25 years has the Allegheny Valley Railroad been struck so hard by stress of weather. Since 1:30 Tuesday afternoon no trains have been run north of Titusville, and since 5 o’clock Tuesday evening no trains have run north of the Kittanning. The officials expect to have the line opened throughout this evening. The river division of the Cleveland & Pitts- urg is tied up by washouts at Wellsville and by miles of submerged tracks. The scene along the Pittsburg & Western Railroad is one of great devastation. The highways are impassable for wagon traf- fic, lroad bridges are washed out by the dozen and no trains were run since es- The roadbed sank in several It will take weeksof labor to get he road in good shape again. It will be several days fore temporary bridges can be built to allow trains to pass over. At Wittmer the tce houses are flooded and wrecked, as are the brick yards and other bulldings in the valley. Ice started to floa down the swollen stream. The streets o Glenshaw and Wittmer are completely sub- merged, and the families living in the valley are in a state of terror. Many are trying to get to the hills in boats and on rafts, taking what furniture they could with them. Every- body feared that the catastrophe of last year would be repeated. Cattle and horses are floundering about in the stables and in the streets, sending forth plaintive cries. WATER OVER A WHOLE TOWN.

Sas, Ae HE POPEIS:: * j FOR PEACE. _, — a —_ P fRoweriul Influence of the Vatican Exerted in the United States and Spain. 7 7 . | Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. | WASHINGTON, March 24—The whole power of the Vatican is being ex- ‘erted to prevent an American-Spanish war. The Pope, through the Papal Sec- fetary, Cardinal Rampolla, is endeavoring 4@ avert the horrors that would attend an appeal to arms. He would also, if it lies in his power, save the ruling Spanish dynasty from overthrow. The influence of the Pope is exerted not only in the ‘Wnited States but in Spain. - I am informed from a very high source that the wishes of Leo XIII. have been tommunicated to the most exalted authority of the American hierarchy. Prelates of the Roman Church are doing all that seems expedient for peace. The Cardinal- Archbishop of Baltimore is striving’ to allay the fever for war that rages through- out the land. The efforts for peace are directed in all quarters where effective work may he done. The two branches of Congress, the Administration and important finan- gial and business circles have experienced a pressure not necessarily direct. The politics of the Vatican are secret. The skilled diplomatists of the Pope’s foreign pffice rarely show their hands. I am informed that two great motives sway the conduct of Leo XIII. First, The integrity of the existing dynasty of Spain. He would avoid the Mangers that would threaten that throne should a war occur. The Spanish people, ‘should disastrous results to Spanish arms occur, would almost certainly revolt against the little King and his mother Maria Christina, the Queen Regent. The high personal character of the Queen Regent would not save her. Papal influence has already been exercised on Don Carlos, the pretender to the Spanish throne. The church and Carlism are synonymous almost. The Carlist leader has been urged not to incite civil war in Spain while a foreign foe is threatening. A great European power would be pleased if the Pope could dispel the war | It ts the hope of every person ‘sidlecinds from the hope disease | = he or she shall sometime ae well.

Mrs. galls in Moolone’ the protocol (or supplement to the treaty) negotiated in 1877, known as the Cushing Protocok That protocol prescribes the procedure in the trial of American citizens in Cuba and exempts them from sumnf€ry trial by drumhead court-martial. There has been manifested of late in political quarters and reflected in the press an increasing disposition to deny that the protocol is binding on Spain. Senor Moret tells a reporter of the Epoca that Premier Collantes went out of office without having signed the protocol and that his successor, Manuel Sil- vela, declined to sign it.- Therefore, according to a custom prevalent, Senor Col- lantes ultimately signed the treaty, though he had ceased to be a Minister of State. “The protocol never was published in the Gazette,” Senor Moret added, “and for that reason the Supreme Court would deny that the protocol is a law of the realm and would reduce it to a mere convention not binding on ‘Spain.” Commenting on this view, lawyers point out that the Supreme Court could not have considered the protocol binding, as no reference whatever is made to it in the decision of the case of the Cuban Phief Sanguilly. The question will he discus in the Cortes at the coming session. Most of the Madrid newspapers, including the ministerial journals, print leith. torial and news articles to prepare the public mind for an early revelation of the fact that the representatives of the American and Spanish Commissions of Investiga- tion into the cause of the Maine catastrophe are certain to clash. But they give it to be understood that this is not likely to cause a rupture or even serious complica- tions. : ARTHUR E. HOUGHTON. ' Special Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. SHOT IN A SWAMP.

Even before they were turned loose into the arena they danced in the tan bark under the seats while waiting for the band to conclude the cus- tomary promenade concert, and, when at 8:30 o’clock the big gates were swung open, as if for the grand entree of the Ringlings’ “HOT STUFF.” eee circus maximus there was a black and yel- low outpouring from the two portals like a general exodus from Liberia. The center of the arena was set in im- itation of a cotton field in full bloom, a pretty sight in nature and very effective even when simulated. The little bushes were arranged in rows and each one al- most drooped with white cotton. As the darkies tumbled pellmell into the cotton patch, the men and pickaninnes doting handeprings and filpfaps and the women BOW TO THE CAKE, —— ee with their red bandana headpieces, it did not require such an extra hard tug at one’s imagination to fancy one’s self in Alabama or Georgia.

Every man, woman and child taking part in the performance was colored. With all due respect to the race, it was a “coon show’’ from start to finish, and it Was a good one. The band, an organization of 60 pieces, was composed of colored men, the supers were colored, the jubilee singers and the soloists were colored, the cake walkers were colored and the greased pig that was chased around the arena was also a bru- nette. To many in the audience the first number on the programme was the most enjoyable. THE REAL THING. The half-hundred darkies, assembled in the cotton fleld, sang favorite Southern songs, with the true melody and sympathetic blending of voices, that only the negro is capable of doing. They went through the gracefully sliding from a modern Ethiopian air, like “Mam- my’s Little Punkin’ Colored Coon,” to Stephen Foster's sweetest song, “Way Down “OH!
