The Brandenburgs Separated Weeks Ago ard the Wife Would Not Consent to a Recon- ciliation. Running’ a bread knife through his throat the protruding blade, Calvin Brandenburg sawed and pulled until he and selzsing almost severed his head from the body. The horrible suicide was committed Fri- day morning in the Kitchen of the dwelling at 2923A Easton avenue, after Branden- burg had fired five shots at his wife, two of which struck her. There was no quarrel. Brandenburg was never #0 calm in his life as when he shot his wi d then plunged a long, keen blade into his neck, after the fashion that butchers kill sheep. He was interrupted itn his work of self- destruction, but he did not falter. He simply looked at the strange mah who was shouting at him, and turning away, as if in contempt at such trivial interference, he twisted and hacked with his weapon until he sank upon the floor. Jealousy was the apparent motive for the attempted murder and suicide. To call it the act of an insane man would not only be charitable, but would doubtless be cor- rect. Brandenburg was head janitor at the Columbia Bullding., Bighth and Locust streets. A year ago he was employed in the same capacity at the Equitable Bulild- ing, Sixth and Locust streets. One of hia helpers was Annié Doyle, a fine-looking; well-developed woman, whose pleasant face was set off by blue eyes and a head of auburn hair that wowld mark her in a crowd of women. The head janitor fel] i love with his helper and seven months ago they were married. Brandenburg and hie wife went to house- keeping at 911 North Eighteenth street. A few weeks passed and the newly made hus- band began to act queerly. He talked as his wife had never heard him talk before. he said were seeking his life. He feared he would be murdered each time he went upon the street at night. At first Mrs. ‘Brandenburg was alarmed. as the days passed by and he had no en- counters with these enemies, she began to was fancying the fate in store for him. One evening Brandenburg came home, more morose and sulien than usual, and as- tonished his wife by teliing her he believed He drew a istol from his pocket and hoiding it up or her inspection, told her he had just bought it to use upon his enemies and may be upon herself. He forbade her to have company, or to fo out, even to visit her mother and sister. He watched the house to see that no «atrangers called, and he ceased giving his wife spending money “You shall not buy fine clothes to wher with other men,” Brandenburg told his wife. It was the first accusation he had made, and the wife Was too surprised to reply. later in the evening she begged him to believe in her innocence, but he would not listen to her.

Evans, U. 8S. N., has been given command of the Iowa, one of the two most formidable Dattleships of the United States. This means that Mid- shipman “Fight'ng Bob” will command a fleet one of these days In the earig future, and will have become “Fighting Bob’’: the Admiral. No living naval officer holds the confidence and pride of the American people as does “Fighting Bob’’’ Evans. The nation has at least twice turned eves to h'm as bear- ing alone its dignity on the sea and re- Bponsibie for the upholding of its honor. As midshipman or commander he has never failed to be an honor to his position and the American uniform. There was a time, only a few years agro, when we appeared on the verge of war with Chili. On Bob Evans then re8ted sole and supreme responsibility. For that brief and critical period in the harbor of Val- paraiso the civil'zed world range with his mame, while the heart of every patriotic American beat faster as the wires brought the exciting intelligence of his noble stand for the honor of our flag and the -nation.

The honor of the American flag and the credit of the nation were at stake. The attention of the whole civilized world was drawn thither by the momentous inci- dent. A delicate question of international Jaw as to political refugees at once con- fronted the young commander of the York. town, and the conflicting forces of a hot- headed and hostile peopie threatened to drag us into an unexpected war, for which we were lily prepared. The nicest diplomatic discretion, coupled with the necessary cour- age to uphold the national honor at any cost, Was necessary. Then it was that the peple began to recall the sobriquet of “Fighting job.” Their confidence wus not misplaced. He declared that the refugees, once on board his ship, would be protected if they all went to the bottom together. The insult to our flag through the stoning of the commander's boat was promptly resented by the demand on the part of “Fighting Bob" for suitable apology from the Chilian vessel of war, This demand he enforced by notification that if it were not granted by a certain time the guns of the American ship of Which he was the commander would be trained upon the Chililan man-of-war and redress exacted at the cannon’s mouth. And Promptiy indeed did that Chillan comman- Ger respond with his apology. The euccecding incident, equally exciting, in which the torpedo boat of the belligerent Chillans played about the American whip, ejcited the declaration from “Fighting Bob" that if they so much as seratch- the paint from the side of an American ship he would blow them out of the water. His men were piped to quarters, the guns were Shetted. and trained ana every American Sallor stood ready to obey the orders of his gallant commander.

And by his courage and discretion in the emergency Gommander Evans did more for the American navy than any statesman who ever lived. He brought the entire country into one bond of sympathy with it. But the Chilian incident, jexciting and fraught With important consequences as .t Was at the time, forms but a single chap- ter in the career of this naval officer—a mere eplacde, as it were, in a life that, still young, bas been made up of stirring events. Beside béing moted for his great courage, — ——— Do It Again. | Commander Evans is well skilled in dl- plomacy, and he is considered unsurpassed as an expert in navy construction. It Was upon a resolution offered by Evans, then a lieutenant commander, that in 1881 the first Advisory Board chosen to consider the building of the ‘“‘new navy,"’ adopted steel] as the material for the construction of all vessels of war, Commander Evans had charge of construction of the ill-fated battleship Maine. He is a native of Virginia and compara- tively a young man, being only 62, modest almost to diffidence in peaceful times, studious and disinclined. toward society. He is smoothfaced, with light-brown hair, slightly tinged with gray, of good figure but with a decided limp from wounds re- ceived when a midshipman in the land at- tack on Fort Fisher in the Civil War. After ithat noted engagement “Fighting Bob’ was pulled from the corpse filled trench at the last breastworks, half strangled by the bodies of dead comrades above him, and with four bullets in his body, the knee of one leg being shattered. Fighting Bob's range of eervice has been remarkably wide. When he had recovered from the wounds received at Fort Fisher he was, by request, restored to active service, and shortly afterward was pro- moted by act of Congress for conscientious gallantry and sailed for China in the Dela- ware, the flagship of Vice-Admiral Rowan. Upon his return to the United States “Fighting Bob"’ was given ordnance duty until 1870, when he was married to Char- lotte, daughter of Frank Taylor of Wash- ington, D. C., and granddaughter of Gen. Daniel Morgan, After marriage our hero Was stationed at Annapolis for two vears, whence the was sent to ame Mediterranean as navigator of the Shenandoah. With this vessel he returned subsequently to Key West upon the threatened outbreak of war between the United States and Spain in 1874. He wae transferred then to the Con- gress as executive officer and was ordered in November, 1876, to fit out and command the training ship Saratoga, and served four years with that vessel. In 1880 he was de- tailed as equipment officer at the Wash- ington Navy Yard and became much inter- ested in the practical working of iron and steel, After serving on the Navy Advisory Board in 1881 he obtained leave of absence and ac- cepted service with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. as inspector of bridge mate- rial and went to work in the shops of An- drew Carnegie of Pittsburg, where he per- sonaily inspected and tested all the steel for the Susquehanna River bridge. Soon after W. €. Whitney entered upon his duties of Secretary of the Navy, under President Cleveland, Evans was again or- dered to duty as Inspector of the Fifth Lighthouse District. ‘While go serving he was appointed a member of the board of experts who drew up and submitted the plans of the present ordnance shops at the Washington yard. When Mr. Whitney be- gan the building of the new navy, Evans was detailed as chief inspector of steel. Finishing this duty he was ordered as sec- retary of the Lighthouse Board. In addi- tion to the duties of this office he wus to take charge of and superintend the con- struction of the battleship Maine. After this he was a short time tn com- mand of the United States steamer Ossipee, and in July, 1891, he was ordered to the command of the Yorktown, then a part of the White Squadron, and Oct. 8 was or- dered to Chili. After so nobly acquitting himeelf at Valparaiso he was ordered to take charge of the fleet in the sealing wa- ters... | While we were not actually on the verge of war with Great Britain as to the seal- Ing industry, there were still very delicate relations between the vwo countries. Per- haps it was Aa greater compliment to send “Mighting Bob" Evans in the Yorktown to take charge of the American fleet at that particular time than has ever before been offered .to any young naval officer. The fleet in Behring Sea was the largest One afloat. It was composed of seven vessels of a mixed character. So well did this fleet do its work that of the 108 vessels of the unlawful sealers who were warned against proceeding to the sealing grounds, ninety-elght were prevented from violating the law. But 47 seals were killed this year, and Commander BPvans’ captured every one of them. Last year some 23,000 seals were unlawfully killed. The fleet sailed in the transaction of this arduous service 63,000 miles between May 13 and Oct. 1. When we take into considera- tion the character of the Northern Pacific seas in midsummer the work will take rank with any similar work of the navy. “Fighting Bob” loves best of all things a real scrimmage. —_————_ omens -- -— > wees oe.

Then the peace-at-any-price men will be happy indeed because we will have to move slowly during the wet season.

Spain does something, the President is still undecided. so much to avoid war as to avoid provoking war with Spain.

Employes of the Union Pacific Pre- pared to Resist Reduction. OMAHA, Neb., March %.—A deep feeling of uneasiness pervades labor circles here, especially railroad labor, on account of the situation on the Union Pacific. The men are very apprehensive. The well-defined peas of retrenchment that haa been estab- ‘shed by President Burt must sooner or later reach the men on the traing, and then there will be trouble. An effort at a reduction was made during the first week of the receivership. — Dundy of this district signed the order mak- ing a W per cent cut In the wages of all men in the operating department. This wae resisted by the men, and resulted in a final review of the matter by Judge Caldwell. The court at that time declined to allow the wage secales to be interfered with.

Rather should Congress remain in ses- sion continuously, ready to act whenever the honor and high- est interest of the nation require the concerted, unanimous and coherent action of all departments.

Once she was a glorious fighter, but now she ir used as storehouse for old rope and other junk. She could not float with safety on the Erie Canal. A trip down the Mississippi would miean the end of her. She does not represent the honor and the glory and the power of St. Louis, the fourth city in the United States. She is a back number. Every other really important city in the United States has been honored by the new navy. St. Louls has been neglected.

The Central Traction bill will not be re- ported to the City Council by the Commit- tee on Railroads at Friday evening’s meet- ing. The committee is composed of Coun- cilmen Ives, who is chairman, and Wiggins and Brinkmeyer. Ives and Wiggins aré Lopposed to the bill. They will not be in a hurry to report it. The Council may take it out of their hands, but the Council has s0me regard for the appearances of things and it will probably let at least one meet- ing pass over before forcing a vote on the measure. When it does the prospect of the bill be- ing passed over the Mayor’s veto, will be fiiown. The extent of the influence of the promoters of the grab scheme over the members of the Upper House will also be ‘phown. The bill will in all probability be passed by a vote of 9 to 4. The old North & Sout bill passed the Council by a vote of 9 to6& President Meter and Mesers. Horton, Ives, Uthoff and Wig- gins voted against it.. Mr. Uthoff had voted with the friends of the measure on some Oints, but on the final passage of the bill e voted against it. ie was regarded as a friend of the measure and the promoters thought they could count on him if it came to trying to pass the bill over the Mayor’s veto. It takes nine votes in the Council to Pass a bill over a veto. . The old bill was passed in the House by a vote pf 17 to 11. he members who voted against it were Burke, Coudrey, Debrodt, Hartman, Henning, Lloyd, Pauley, Roébert- s0n, Schuler, Watson and Weeke, After the bill had been vetoed, the motion to reconsider was lost by a vote of 165 to 13, Wander and Speaker Lehmann voting against reconsideration. The opponents of the North and South bill are viewing the approach of another vote on the measure with some apprehension, After such a decided and Sebiaive flop on the part of the House they are expecting anything to strike in the Council. “The situation is a mystery to me,” said President BF. F. W. Meier, “and I cannot aé- count for the perversely favorable vote in the House of Delegates.

He spoke and worked for it before, but upon a call of the roll he voted against it after it had re- ceived a sufficient number of votes to in- sure its passage. He said Friday: “TT am not paying much attention to the bill, one way or the other. It had some objectionable features before, but it is pos- eible that when our Railroad Committee gets through with the bill it may be all right. My objection to it was that the company proposed to lay its track on St. Charlies street. That nas been changed, and it is possible other bad features, if there are any, may be eliminated. I can- not say what I shall do until a report is received from the Railroad Committee.”’ is this unwillingness on the part of to define his position which in- creases the interest in the situation and tends to the belief that he will favor the measure even on a vote to pass it over the Mayor's veto.

George W. Jones Reviews the yecent Election Case. UNFAIR RULINGS CRITICISED. CHAIRMAN OF .THE ELECTION COMMISSIONERS PLACES THE BLAME ON THE BENCH. NQ EVIDENCE WAS ALLOWED. Efforts of the Prosecution Were Baf- fled at Every Turn—Review of What It Was Expected ‘to Prove to a Jury. When seen by a @ost-Dispatch reporter to-day Mr. George W. Jones, chairman of the Board of Election Commissioners, seemed somewhat indignant at the state- ments made by Judge Zachritz in regard to the election#fraud case recently dis- missed fn his court. Sald Mr. Jones: “Out of respect for the bench I refrained from making any: direct criticism of Judge Zachritz’s rulings in this case, though nat- urally the Election Commissioners did feel somewhat chagrined at the result of this tr.al, as 1 am satisfied that a more pal- pable or a clearer case of fraud and falsi- fying of election returns was never pre- sented to a court in this country. No plainer case could be made. “Inasmuch as Judge Zachritz sees fit to discuss this case in the newspapers and make a petty fling at me, I feel justified new in unreservedly criticising Judge Zach- ritz.’’ “But, Mr. Jones, Judge Zachritz says, as you will note, the fact that an election was held could have been easily proven had the matter been properly presented.”’ “Well, in regard to that, think it Is rather a cruel criticism of the Prosecuting Aitorney in Judge Zachritz’ court. I say cruel, because, of course, in his position the Prosecuting Attorney can make no reply. “The Election Commissioners claimn—to know something of the election laws. but they do not claim to be lawyers, and hence are not posted as to thé proper methods of presenting a case before a court, nor are we in a position to do so if we had that knowledge. “Judge Zachritz says that while on the witness stand I wanted to show the court the law in the case, and that he was com- pelied to stop me. This is hardly a fair presentation of the fects, “Il observed that the Judge was incl'ned tO accept any statement made by the at- torneys for the defense as law and gospel. These attorneys made the statement that the law required the Election Commission- ers to keep minutes of their meetings, but did not cite the section of the law cover- ing thig poimt» At this I turned to Judge Zachritz and respectfully asked him if I would be permitted to state what the law was on this point, to which he replied that the Presecuting Attorney was the proper one to present the law to the Court, but after considering it a few moments he sug- gested to the Prosecuting Attorney that he confer with mein the witness room; whereat I stated to the Prosecuting Attor- ney that there was or is nothing in the laws governing the Board of Election Commis- sioners requiring them to keep minutes of their proceedings, and called his attention to the only two sections of the law which made any reference to @ record being kept by the Commissioners. “Judge Zachritz says that we, that is the Prosecuting Attorney and I, were unable to bring out the necessary evidence. Well, that is sarcasm, indeed. The trouble was that the Judge ruled Mr.. Eggers out at every point and sat down an him unmer- cifully in every effort he made to get in his evidence, and evidently all concerned felt that we had such a clear case that if we could ever open the case and get the facts before the jury a conviction was eure to follow. “Judge Zachritz eays that he knows an @tection took place, but he had to have evi- dence of the fact, such as would satisfy the ury. Now, as stated, I do not profess to xe posted on the technicalities of the law, but I presume to assert that the proper course for the Judge was to let the evidence on this point go to the jury and let the jur determine whether the evidence was suf- ficient, and that it was not thé province of the Judge to determine this in advance. I claim that the evidence on this point, to- gether with all the evidence, should have gone to the jury, and the jury would have determined as to the sufficiency of the evi- dence and they were the proper ones to de- termine this point. “The Commissioners, at his request, se- cured for the prosecuting attorney a sworn seecave from ‘the publishers of the Posi- ispatch and Globe-Democrat of the publi- cation of the Commissioners’ proclamation calling the election, with a copy of the proc- lamation attached; likewise from the Globe- Democrat ‘the original copy of this procla- mation duly signed by each one of the Com- missioners, and all of the Commissioners were there to certify to their signatures: and we produced copy of the paper contain- ing this praclamation; yet the Judge ruled it out as insufficient, because the Commis- sioners could not bring into court a record f the minutes of a meeting at Which the proclamation was formally adopted. “The point which I made in regard to thie (and I have since been assured by one of the most eminent lawyers in St. Louis that my position was correct) was this, that a copy of a proclamation spread upon our minutes did not and could not consti- tutes a proclamation from the very na- ture of the case and from the meaning of the word, It did not become a proclama- tion until it. was published in the newspa- pers as the law directs, and that this docu- ment or proclamation as it gppeared in the newspapers was the proclamation itself and not something dn the minutes or rec- ords of this office. .- “Judge Zachritz says that it ts not the duty of the court to take sides in a trial in progress before him, On this point I eoncur fully with the Judge, and that js why I claim that the prosecution did not nave a fair show in this case. Judge Zach- ritz not only threw the case out of court on the various technicalities, and in a way Which IT am satisfied would be overruled by a higher court if it were possible to get iM up for revision, but he deliberately en- deavored to throw the blame on the Elec- tion Commissioners, on the plea that the Commissioners had failed to perform cer- tain duties; that is to keep certain minutes whieh the law nowhere prescribes.”’ Mr. Jones, will the Commissioners take any further steps in this case?’ “I do not think that anything can be done now after the case has been dismissed. If we find it is poastne under the law to take this case before a grand jury again for another indictment we will do so. “Another point which occurs to me: The Judge says that Mr. Saunders’ conception of the law is at fault. In addition to the sections of the law recently cited by Mr. Saunders, secretary of this board. in a re- cent newspaper interview with him, I beg respectfully to call the Judge’s attention to another section of the election law; that is s@otion 87 of the act of 18%, in regard to prosecutions for a violation of the election laws, which reads as follows: Irregularities or defects in the mode of noticing, convening, holding or conducting an election authorized Hf law ehall constitute {eo defense to a prosecution for a violation of the provisions of this act. me — — of PR ga fraud was wn out ona up claith of a de- fect in the mode of. ‘convening’ the elec the case schoo) ey is ast. in the ward the judgers and the first it. nl ae ON ee _ : ‘ aX ~~ at es ¢ eS rt; . eo 3 ze “a ‘ ONT el Bae eR et NN be x Ms oe ¥ ‘ Ree" oe .

As a “No man or one source, namely, the great physician once said: these poll books is entered the name ont every man who votes and at the time _he votes.”’ “On the registration books, which are in the hands of the judges, the word voted, or the letter V is entered in a column ar- ranged for that purpose upposite the name of the voter at the time he votes. On the poll books at this election 97 names were entered, showing the name and address of every man who voted and the two poll books, kept by the two clerks, correspond exactly. “Likewise opposite these corresponding names on the two registration books is en- tered the letter V and no other names on the registration books are s0 marked thereby showing by another check the number of men who voted at that election. “After the polls were closed, according to the testimony of one of the clerks, as soon as the ballot box was opened, all the ballots were taken out and counted and there were 97, eereeg aera with the num- ber of names entered on the pollbooks. “After the count had progressed awhile, according to the statement of this election officer, some of the judges began t6 call out 140 or more votes for some of the candi- dates, at which he protested, asserting that he could not be a party to any such pro- ceedings, and drew a pen through his sig* nature on the tally sheet; whereupon he a violently assaulted and knocked sense- ess. “This and other evidence In detail would have been given by this election clerk had he been pemitted to go on the stand in court.

PARADISE. FOR QUACKS NO PROTECTION GRANTED MIS- SOURI PRACTITIONERS BY THE STATUTES. KANSAS IS WAGING: WAR. Expected That Fakers Who Are Driven From There Will Flock to This State. Physicians throughout Missourl and es- pecially in St. Louls view with alarm the contemplated war of the Kansas State Board of Health upon the “quacks” prac- ticing in the Sunflower State. According to the fraternity Missouri is a paradise for medical fakirs, and it is feared the already crowded ranks of these will be further augmented by the stampede from Kansas. The Attorney-General of that State has notified the secretary of the Board of Health that he can, under the laws, move with impunity against hypnotists, magnetic heal- ers and the purveyors of any and all health fads. Divine healers are alone exempt. Local physicians believe that this State, particulariy the larger cities, will have a quack epidemic that may prove of serious consequences to the legitimate profession. “The laws of the State of Missouri,”’ said Dr. Frank J. Lutz,” offer absolutely no protection to the citigsens against the im- positions of these fake doctors. The Su- preme Court has said that orety man is at lfberty to select any mode of treatment for disease he may chose, thus making quackery a legitimate pursuit. “The profession is not even protected against the competition of tly educated | students. The State Boa of Health is powerless to assist, for the law is plain that the board shall issue certificates to all who shall furnish satisfactory proof of havin received diplomas from legally charter medical institutions in good stand! of whatever school or system of medicine. When a diploma is presented and no ber of the board knows aught against the school, a certificate must issue. The real worth of the ~ Te escapes considera- cone the school is all that can be recog~ nized. “A determined effort was made in Kan- sas City a few months ago to prosecute a ractitioner of Christian Science.

LEFT FRIDAY MORNING FOR AN INSPECTION TOUR OVER THE IRON MOUNTAIN SYSTEM. ——--— -HAD A TIME WITH HIGH WATER. ee eee ‘He Thinks With Senator Thurston That War Might Stimulate Rail- road Business, at Least for Awhile. George Gould, President of the Missouri Pacific-Iron Movwfrffain rallway system, left St. Louls at noon Friday for a tour over the southern and southwestern lines owned and leased by the company. Extensive improvements have recently been made along the route In Missouri, Ar- kansas and Texas. During his tour Mr, Gould wtll make his first Inspection of the work. With him in the private car Atalanta were Vice-President. C. G. Warner and Gen- eral Manager W. B. Doddridge. Mr. Gould reached St. Louls Thursday night. He remained al) night in his private car in the train shed at Union Station. Early Friday morning a switch engine steamed into Union Station and was at- tached to the Atalanta. Mr. Gould's pres- ence in the city was known to only a few employes of the road. The switchmen and the yardmen were surprised when they saw the handsome car speeding through the Missouri Pacific yards, but they knew what it meant. The President was taking an early morn- ing spin through the company’s terminals without having announced his. intention from the housetops. The first stop was at the shops near Ewing avenue. There Mr. Gould held a short con- ference with the foreman, after which he continued’ his journey, going south over the Oak Hill division, and making an in- spection of the Iron Mountain yards, On hig return he left his special car at Grand avenue and walked to a street car. This Plebelan conveyance took him to the Equitable building, where are the general ‘offices of the company. Here he was joined ‘by Messrs. Warner and Doddridge. The ‘Atalanta had meanwhile been taken to Union Station, and everything was in read- iness for the departure of the special when the officials reached the big train shed. Mr. Gould is apparently in the best of heaith. He wore Friday a black geack suit and a small brown derby hat of the latest New York block. ; He was as approachable as ever, but he pleaded lack of time to talk at length. “My visit to St. Louih has no more sig- nificance than other stop-offs on my in- spection tour,” he said. “I make it a poinv 1o get over the system several times a year. I transacted no official business during my short stay here. “It looked at one time as if I were never going to reach St. Louis. Ohio is like a vast iane. Continued rains and swollen etreams have made the State almost impassable. I expected to arrive in St. Louls Wednesday but near Columbus we were waterbound en were compelled to lay over 2% hours and 40 minutes. The railroads through Ohio are doing wonderfully well considering the con- ditions,.”’ A mention of war brought a deprecatory gesture from Mr. Gould. “I do not care to air any views,” he said. “What about Senator Thurston's state- ment in his speech before the Senate that a war between the United States and Spain would increase the revenues of every Amer- ican railroad?’ was asked, “That might be fte first effect,’’ said Mr. Gould. “What would follow is-largely a matter of conjecture. Much would depend on the location, the nature and the dura- tion of the hostilities. Still I do not care to talk about war. The Improvement of the roads in which I am interested is absorbing my attention.” BIG FRAUD UNEARTHED. Indictments Found Against Brooklyn City Officials and Contractors. NEW YORK, March 5, —ph the Kings County Criminal Court tn Brooklyn to-day 314 or 15 indictments were handed down by the grand jury against former city officials and contractors of Brooklyn. District At- torney Marean refuses to make known the hames of the persons indicted untll after they shall have been arrested. It is al- leged, however, that the indictments are the outcome of an investigation that has been pacayeding for some time into the ope- Fations of public works department of Brooklyn. It is also said that the indictments charge ” conspiracy by which the city was de- Traud out of $80,000 by means of fraudu- lent contracts. The records charge the $50,000 in question to “emergency work.” The law required that all work. the cost of which was to exceed $2000, should be warded by contracts, upon advertisement or the regular time. To evade this law it is alleged, the officers of the Brooklyn et a Mn gh had been in the mbit of ordering work and ’ in sums of $2000 or leas. 6 fetrauerte: Most of these small jobs and the money for them fell into the handg of a firm that appeared upon the books as Thomas Frazier & Co. A little detective work dis- closed the fact that Contractor Danie Doody was really Thomas Frazier & Co. All the bills for this “emergency work” had to receive the “O. K."" of Water Pur- veyor Knapp, be certified as correct by ae a City Work Commissioner Fieling, passed by Auditor Sutton, thence througn the hands of Comptroller Palmer and were finally paid by City Treasurer Taylor. heodore B.

OVER 2000 PERSONS HOMELESS Driven to Flight by the Rise of the Waters, They Are Sheltered in City Public Halls and Market Places. CINCINNATI, March 2.—The Ohio River continues rising about an inch an hour. From reports from above it is certain that the river will continue to rise here more rapidly to-morrow, reaching {ts limit, Sun- day. It now seems certain that a stage of more than 55 feet will be reached. Fifty-six feet will encroach upon the Newport race track and probably cause a postponement of the April meeting. ™ The Ohio is still rising at Parkersburg three-tenths of a foot per hour. The Ka- nawha River has risen five feet at Charles- ton. The flood continues at Zanesville, where the Muskingum is still rising two inches an hour. Two persons are reported drowned. More than 200 box cars have been destroyed and the city is without light or water supply. The loss in the county fs now estimated at millions. Over 2000 persons are shetered in public halls and the market house. WATERS ARE SUBSIDING. Loss by Flood at Pittsburg Is Now Put | at $1,900,000. PITTSBURG, Pa., March 25.—As the flood subsides the inundated districts in the two cities presents a desolate appearance and the residents are suffering the after effects of the high water. .At 10 o’¢lock the water had receded to 21% feet, which is 6 inches below the danger line. , From careful estimates made it is be- lieved that the loss in and about Pittsburg and Allegheny willl reach $1,000,000, This in- cludes the loss of wages to employes of manufacturing establishments forced to close down. SIGNED. BY MURPHY, IRON JUDGE GIVES BOND FOR DORA LINDSAY AND “BUD” SHERIDAN. The name of David Murphy, Judge of the Court of Criminal Correction appears on the bond of Dora Lindsay and William, alias “Bud’’ Sheridan, cdlored, defendants in Judge Zachritz’s court. They are charged with assault to kill. There may have been no attempt at con- cealment, but though the bond .was execu- ted and filed more than a week ago the matter was not talked about in the Four Courts until Friday. The Lindvay woman and her brother, “Bud” Sheridan, were tried in the Court of Criminal Correction February 9 and were acquitted. They were charged with having assaulted with intent to kill, Gerhardt Brueggeman, a private watchman for the Terminal Ratlroad Association. They were ee. ruegggman was dissatisfied with : : Murphy's disposition of the case pt oe laid the matter before the grand jury. He alleged that the man and woman were in the railroad yards and when he ordered them to move on they refused.When he used what he considered only necessary force they resisted and assaulted him with stones and an iron poker and beat him severely. On the evidence submitted to the grand jury an indictment was found. When the matter was brought to Judge ey Se notice. he promptly went into the Criminal Court and furnished bond for the accused. The fact that the Iron Judge had done such a thing created no little comment around the Four Courts. Judge Murphy talked freely about the matter when spoken to by a Post-Dispatch reporter. “There is nothing extraordinary about my going on the bond,” he said. “It is not in my court, but in. a court @hat I am in no way connected with. These people were tried before me and they were innocent of any wrong doing. I acquitted them. This private watchman is persecuting them and when I am _convinced that anyone is being persecuted I will-go on their bond willingly. “There was no evidence against them. This private watchman arrested the wom- an illegally. She was in the yards and when told to move she was complying. He followed her out in the street and bran- dished his revolver above her head and assaulted her. Her brother saw the affair and interfered in his sister’s behalf. The watchman turned on the brother, who picked up an iron bar and struck the watchman on the pistol arm in self-de- fense."’ TWO KILLED BY A. DRIVER.

If the clothing that we make is better than the usual sorts, it is because we take pains with it, and won't cheapen it for the sake of an extra profit.

FOUR ARRESTS WERE MADE. ELECTRIC BELLS GAVE WARNING AND MOST OF THE PLAY- ERS ESCAPED, INNOCENCE AT THE HOSTLERY. Managers Say They Were in Ignorance Till the Detectives Came—The Officers Tell Ancther Story of Preparation, For several days, the poiice say, carpen- ters, painters and decorators have been at work on the second floor of Hotel Barnum, Sixth street and Washington avenue, put- ting finishing touches on a gambling den of Monte Carlo splendor. The last etroke was finished Thursday af- ternoon and Thureday night, there was a grand opening. 1 A game of craps started at 8 o’clock and ran at full blast for a little over two hours. Then came a sudden interruption. There was boisterous clamor at the outer gates. An electric bel] jingled loudly, twice in rapid succession. That was a prear- renged eignal, announcing a police raid. Nothing had been overlooked in the equip- ment of Ahat gambling resort. At the front entrance Detectives Gocking, eely, was and Williams demanded ad- mission. Meanwhile there was energetic skirmishing on the inside, and when at last* the detectives were allowed to enter there was no game in sight. Evidence had been obtained, however, by looking through a rear door. Four men were arrested, while several others escaped. At the Central Station the prisoners were registered as James Thompson, Thomas McGowan, Peter Hendricks and John Smith. They immediately gave bond. Samuel Houston, once known as a faro king of the West, is said to be the keeper of the game. About @ month ago there was a rald at Hotel Barnum. Since then the game has not been running until the grand opening of the refitted and refurnished rooms Thursday night. Whenever Houston runs a game, the swell sports of the town con- gregate, it is said. Chief Desmond has given it out that the festive crap games, high or low, must go, and his men are under orders to raid every place that opens. Houston’s den is said by detectives to be the most aristocratic in Seeeenent this city has known for a long whiie. In the face of the assertion of the police department that special arrangements were made in the room at the Hote] Barnum for a craps game, the hotel management plead ignorance of the whole affair, and claim that they simply let a room to casual guests as they would to anybody else and did not know until the police came in that.a game was being conducted in the hotel. The clerk in charge said that the raid took place about 8 o’clock Thursday night, and was a complete surprise to everybody connected with the hote] management. TO INVADE THE FOREST.
