MADRID, Spain, May 3.—I am now able to give the first consecutive account of the greatest naval battle since the ironclad was invented; the greatest naval fight and the most overwhelming naval victory in the annals of the United States. As my information is wholly from Spanish sources, and chiefly from government telegrams, the facts in favor of the Americans doubtless are far below the truth. The sailing of the American fleet from Hong Kong, April 27, was promptly cabled .to Manila, and, despite all that the authorities could do to prevent it, was soon known throughout the Island. Many of the better class immediately hurried aboard merchant vessels with their valuables and fled. Those left behind took no courage from the confident boastings of the Spanish army and navy officers, but gave way to a panic from fear of what would happen when the .natives were encour- aged to practice the lessons in savagery Spain has been so long and so carefully teaching them. It was known to the Spanish authorities that the American fleet would be almost certain to arrive in the evening of Saturday a The Spanish fleet, which the Governor-General had been overpersuaded by to order to sea to meet and destroy the “coward Yankee pigs” there, was recalled Saturday after- noon and lined up, seven miles down the bay from Manila, at Cavite, where the arsenal, dry docks and naval workshops are defended by a long line of earthworks. Those works had been greatly strengthened of late, notably by the addition of several big modern guns. . They were regarded as very formidable by the old-fashioned Spanish military engineers. The fort on Corregidor Island, the battery on Caballo Island and the works on the mainland points to the north and_ south of those islands were all. in readiness, and the, chain of mines which guarded both channels was prepared to blow up é¢ach American ship as it passed. Saturday night fell with the Spaniards on land and water quite cheerful éver the coming engagement. . Shortly after midnight, the darkness being intense, one of the guns on Corregidor suddenly boomed out. All the other guns about the entrance to the bay took up the cry. The anxious people of Manila twenty miles up the bay, poured into the streets. the battle had begun in reality. SQUADRON SCORNS FORTS AND TORPEDOES. The American fleet was already past the entrance and was on its way up the opposite side of the bay. How the Americans got past the forts is not yet known. It is believed they did not have to fire a gun, and it is said that the location of the mines was known to them and that Admiral Dewey daringly resolved to run the chances of being misin- formed. It was a night of terror in Manila. Admiral Montejo They thought The women and children fled to the churthes, while the men rushed to and fro in the streets. Dismay seized upon the Spanish soldiers. They had not believed that the Americans could ever get pakt the entrance batteries and mines. Long before dawn the panic became a frenzy because of the reports that came in from the in- terior of the island that the natives were massing for a descent upon the city, to pillage and to massacre. When day broke the tens of thousands watching on all sides of the vast and beautiful har- : bor saw the enemy in line of battle about ten miles out, directly in front of Manila. There were nine vessels in all, as follows The second-class protected cruiser reece 5800 tons, a swift commerce destroyer, carrying - four terrible 8-inch guns and ten deadly 5-ineh quick-firers.

The partially protected gunboat Coneord, with six 6-inch guns. Then there was the little gunboat Petrel, with four 6-inch guns. The steel-clad revenue cutter Hugh McCulloch, turned into a gunboat, To the rear were the two transport ships Zafico and the Mansban, with coal, ammunition and accommodations for the wounded. , STEAMED BOLDLY INTO THE HARBOR. With the bright American flag floating gayly over each ship, with the rigging, the decks and all visible appointments so neat and trim, the fleet seemed out for a holiday rather than await- ing the-opening of the only real demonstration of an iron-clad fleet in action that the world has had, The Spaniards could hardly believe their own eyes on seeing this formidable apparition in the very center of their harbor, almost within firing distance of the capital city of their last re- maining Eastern possession. It seemed incredible, impossible. They had not long to watch and speculate. The sun was hardly clear of the horison before the American fleet began to steam in slow and stately fashion straight in toward the city. Near its resting place were anchored three men-of-war from three different nations— France, Germany and England. The decks and rigging of each of these ships were thronged with eager officers and sailors, Discipline seemed to be forgotten in the intense desire to see what the Yankees would do—those Yankees who, in three-quarters of a century, had never sent a hostile fleet into any port of a Eu- ropean power. On came the American fleet until it was within about three miles of Manila. Then the Spanish guns of the battery at the end of Mole spoke. But the shot fell short. Then from the Spanish fleet, steaming slowly up from Cavite, came several shots, The American fleet turned. The two duellists were face to face. To expert eyes the Spanish fleet seemed far inferior. Yet to the people watching and ap- parently to the Spanish officers and sailors, the difference did not seem great. The Spanish ships were of older patterns, rather than smaller, and were far more numerous, There were: _ | , The Reina Cristina, of 3090 \tons, with six 6-inch and two 3-inch guns. The Castilla, with four 6-inch and two 5-inch guns. The Isla de Cuba and the Isla de Luzen, with four 4.7-inch guns. Three torpedo boats, each of which thé Spanish naval officers thought could take care of the Olympia and the Baltimore. As for the rest of the American fleet they relied upon the Don Antonio, the Ulloa, the Don Juan de Austria, the Velasco and ten gunboats, Then there were the batteries on shore all along the low peninsula. To get the full effect of all their guns, the Spaniards formed so that the Americans would have to face not only all the guns afloat, but also all guns on shore at Cavite, while from the rear the strong batteries of Manila could perhaps send aiding shots. THE BATTLE OPENS. When the American maneuvering brought their ships within range, at about 6:45 a. m, the real duel began. The Spanish stood steady, flanked by the Cavite batteries on the south. The American fleet began to steam languidly to and fro. There were one or two sharp cracks, then a succession of deafening roars and then one long, reverberating roar that boomed and bellowed from shore to shore. A huge cloud of smoke lay close upon the waters, and around it was a penumbra of thick haze. Through this the American ships could be seen moving, now slowly, now more rapidly, flames shooting from their sides and answering flames leaping from the Spanish ships and land batteries, while now and then from the direction of Manila Gime a hollow rumble as the big -guns there were discharged, more from eagerness to take part than from hope of lending effective aid. It was impossible to see from the shore the effect of many of the shots, but from the fact} viser that the Americay shige were aligzmately advancing and retreating in the course of their ma- CONTINUED ON PAGE THREE, ge?

=. BATTLE OF MANILA WON BY PLUCK AND DARING. (CONTINUED FROM PAGE TWoO.). we neuyerings, the Spaniards on shore got the i impression that the Yankees were being beaten. About 7:30 a. m. there was a lull in the terrific uproar. The wind blew away the haze and Smoke and one of the American gunboats was seen making off toward ume" western part of the bay, Clearly disabled. A cheer went up from the Spaniards. A SPANISH SHIP IN FLAMES. | Then flames burst from the bow of the Cristina, one of the two best ships and the flagship of the fleet. The Americans again closed in and the uproar was renewed with increased fury. The Americans could not have suffered great loss up to this time, as not many shots from the heroic, but incompetent, Spanish gunners had struck them. | When the ships were again seen the Cristina was wrapped in flames. On her decks the “lors, Spaniards and hatives, were rushing frantically about. | TUESDAY—ST.

Confusion now reigned throughout the Spanish fleet. On every vessel the decks were slippery with blood and the air was filled with shrieks and groans of the wounded. The cM and the native sailors rushed about in a frenzy of rage rather than of terror. The Americans, see mingly calm and cool and still in good order, pressed their advantage. In fact, they pushed on teo closely, for they, too, began to lose as the fire from the Cavite batter- ies. became effective, At this juncture the Don Juan de Austria became the center of interest. the very front of the battle and had received perhaps more of the Americans’ shots than other. THE DON JUAN DE. AUSTRIA EXPLODES. Admiral Montejo, on the burning Cuba, threw up his arms with a gesture of despair as a heavy roar came from the Austria and part of her deck flew up in the air, taking with it scores of, dead and dying and mangled. A shot had set off one of her magazines. But her crew refused to leave her. Weeping, cursing, they went down with her. As the Don Juan went down the Castilla burst into flames. The remainder of the Spanish fleet now turned and fled down the long, Cavite. Several of the gunboats ; (here. E THE gunsiof Cavite kept on thundering, and the Americans, pressing their advantage no) further, drew off. — | As they steamed away toward their waiting transports the Spaniards went wild with joy. | They thought thiat, in spite of outward appearances, the American fleet was crippled, and that as it would be unable to escape from the harbor, it would fall into their hands. i This was telegraphed up to Manila and so on to Madrid, where it filled the Ministry with) F momentary delight. | | But before the Ministers at Madrid had read the false news the American fleet, with decks again cleared and fresh supplies of ammunition, was steaming back toward Cavite, to annihilate, the remnant of Montejo’s fleet and completely silence the land batteries, which was fulgy accom- | plished. In the affernoon the British Consul went out to the Olympia, and, it is said, asked that Ma- nila be not bi © Admiral ‘vewey sent word ashore by him that he surely would bombard Manila at dawn of Monday unless the Spaniards surrendered all their torpedoes,all their guns and gave him control _of all telegraph and cable wires. This message was delivered by the British Consul to Captain-General Augusti about His answer was a prompt, utter refusal, and he repeated this message of heroic folly he had consulted with his officers. The courage of the Spaniards was as great as their overwhelming ruin. ily—just how heavily they dare not tell even themselves. The Spanish flags had been shot from the waters of Manila Bay, the last Spanish ship lay in ruins and the last possible chance of resisting the relentless Americans, whom they now hated, whereas they had despised them, was gone absolutely. Yet, emulating the despairing heroism of the officers and crew of the Don Juan de Austria, they hurled defiance at the American fleet lying so tranquil just out of reach of the battery on the mole at Manila. ~All efforts on the part of the foreign Consuls to dissuade them were in vain; they had rs up their minds to go down with the ruins and to sacrifice further lives in an insane resistance. | From the details that have already come in it is evident that the attack on Manila was as | magnificent in expeution as in plan. In every movement the Americans showed an invincible com. \ination of daritig, caution, of coolness and heat, of valor and skill. THE MARBLEHEAD’S RICH PRIZE.

The Spanish stripes thev al) went under When Dewey's guns began to thunder. The Dans had e’en no time to wonder. What a pity that Weyler was not with the Spanish Manila fleet!

It will be a great Blessing if Delegate Bersch gets the !nsur- ance on the power house, Jefferson Davis’ grand-nephew having joined a meatahy rezi- ment, the war of '61-'65 is over. As Illinois has made her inheritance tax secure she wll get along very well without a gerrymander. Commodore Rollingpin was not at Manila, but he got in a broad- side against Spain in the Post-Dispatch. The soldier of Bingen lacked woman's nursing and it looks as if the American soldier tn Cuba will also lack It. Delegate Willmore is an experienced whitener, but he isn’t de- voting much time to whitening city legislation. Doubtless Massachusetts will give Secretary Long credit for having the Boston at Manila when the fight began. The Spaniards of Montejo’s fleet are now convinced that Amer- ican pigs that rush into the sea are possessed of devils. It is well to know that there are 300 members of the Woman's Noonday Club, but is it not also important to know how many strawberries they put in their shortcake? The victory of Manila was a victory for the Post-Dispatch as well as for Commodore Dewey. The Post-Dispatch was the first herald of the battle. “Mr. Roosevelt is in the saddle and the saddle ts a good fit,”’ gays the Chicago Record. Possibly Mr. Roosevelt was wise enough to have his pantaloons double-seated, as is the practice in the cavalry. Surgery having shown that a man may do without his stomach and also spare a foot or two of his intestines, it would be well to consider how many other internal organs can be dispensed with.

Oo Commodore George Dewey's personality, so interesting at this time because of his brilliant victory at Manila, becomes doubly so to St. Louis when it is known that two men here know him well and are able to give some description of Dewey as boy and man. Attorney Arba N. Crane went to school with George Dewey atin academy in Ver- mont and knew him later at Montpelier, that State, wheré the~Deweys lived. Mr. Crane and Commodore Dewey were chums and roommates at the academy, altnough the jJatter was a class or two below the former. “T am sorry you found me out,” said Mr. Crane, ‘‘for I don't fancy parading my ac- quaintance with Dewey, now that ne has become famous. He was much like other boys, no better and no worse than the average in Vermont at thattime. That was back in the ’50s. As I remember Dewey he was a self-possessed, quiet, spunky fellow, rather short and stocky in build. I don't know whether he wa3 a fighter or not then, for as I remember it, tnere were no fights in school while we were there to- ether. But JI daresay he would have ought if he had been given cause, just as he did at Manila. “T can’t say much about his abilities as a student, because I was in none of his classes. But I should judge from what I knew of him generally that he kept along with his classmates. One thing remarkable about him is that his pictures now at 60 years look startlingly like the George Dewey I knew at 16, His father, Dr. Dewey, was quite prominent in his pro- fession. George looks now as his father looked then. His brother, Charles, was secretary of an insurance company and af- terwards became its president, I believe. After Dewey entered the Naval Academy I oniy saw him once, when he was at home on a furlough. I have not kept run of him since. That ig Dewey, the boy. Eugene C. Titt- man, the attorney. knew Dewey, the man, and studied under him at the Naval Acad- my . “When I knew Dewey.’ said Mr. Tittman “he was commandant on the glorious old frigate Constitution, and It seems that he has won as much renown by his defeat of the Spaniards as Capt. Isaac Hull won in the battle between. the Constitution and the Guerrtere. The Constitution Was used then to train the cadets in practical seamanship. That was in 1867, and the modern battle- ship was not dreamed of. It was oo fore thought necessary that -the cadets should learn all about saila and ratlines and splices and guch things that pertained to sailing vesels. “We were a lot of wild, rollicking, mis- chievous boys, ranging from 16 to 17 in age, and it taok a strong hand to manige us. Dew*y was just the man for the place. He was one of the gentlest men 1 ever knew, kind and considerate, yet a conscientious disciplinarian and a stickler for e tiquett The boys liked and respected him, some of them fairly worshipping him. He was only about 30 at that time. and hadn't lost any of the hoy nature which lingers so long, deep in tne hearts of most true natures, He could sympathize with us in most things, and he was not above showing his sym- pathy. But we couldn’ t ove erstep the mark. BANK PRESIDENT SHORT. First National ‘of Car thage, N. Y., Compelled to Close Its Doors. WATPRTOWN, N.

If a cadet presumed to take advantage of Dewey's kindness, he very soon found out the stern qpalitics that lay underneath the softer traf¥s of his character. He was @ man of quick decision, clear-headedness and courage. “IT saw him once in a tight place. He used to go on inert trial cruises on sailing vessels. Dewey commanded one and ths late Rear Admiral Dick Meade the other. We were cruising about one day when by some .mistake there was danger of a col- lision.

Joseph B. Coghlan of the United States ship Raleigh, which helped Commo- dore Dewey win the glorious victory in Manila Bay. Sunday, is a cousin of ex-Gov. Charles P. Johnson, John D. Johnson and Col. Richard M. Johnson. The members of the various Johnson fam- ilies learned from the Post-Dispatch extras Sunday night that the battle was on, and they arose early Monday morning to read whether ‘‘Joe,"’ as his cousins call him, came through safely. They feel certain that he is all right, and glory in the part which he and his ship took in the battle. Ex-Gov. Johnson wag ready to talk about ‘Joe’ Tuesday. “He's a fine fellow,’ said the ax-Gover- nor. “I have known him since the Johnson boys and the Coghlan boys were compan- ions in mischief over at Belleville, where we were all born and reared. Joe is a broth- er of Philip Coghlan, a well-known printer in St Louis, who was once foreman of the St. Louis Times. The Coghlan family is re- markable. In 1849 the father, mother, eldest daughter and youngest son died within three days, of cholera. Two daughters and four sons were left. The sons were Philip, John, Joseph and Oscar. Philip became a printer and a good one. John went to California, etudied law, went to Congress and became United States District Attorney at San Francisco under Grant. He died while in that position. Os- car went to the war and was wounded at Shiloh. He also went to California and ig on the bench there now. #Joe was appointed to Annapolis by my uncle, Philip B. Fowler. He graduated in 1563 and was unlucky enough to be go sta- tioned that he saw no real service during the war. Some years ago, because of its inaction, he decided to leave the navy and studied law here in my office for a year. ‘He grew restless, however, and I advised him to go back into the navy. Now I sup- pose he’s glad he took my advice. He’s as game as they’re made, and a witty fellow.

NEW YORK, May 3.—New York is mad. 7 o'clock. Bursting bombs illuminate vast areas of rain-drenched. but unquenchable enthusiasts. The rocket'’s red glare but in- flames them, although it might open their eyes to pneumonia and rheumatism. They shout themselves hoarse in praise cf the men of Dewey's fleet; they shout them- selves dumb in honoring Dewey. Dull, grov- eling detail is forgotten. They have reach- ed the stage wherein the adjective is adored. Bulletins are no longer read. “The Spanish fleet is annihilated; Manila is ours.” That is enofgh. Flags hang, soaked and straight with their poles. Men filled with joy and its counterfeit march the streets clinging sedulously to straight lines and singing all they remember of “The Star Spangled Banner,” as long as anyone will lead them through “America,” and when bands pass shouting like demons at the first strain of ‘Dixie’ they recog- nize. “My Country, "Tis of Thee’’ rolls volumin- ously from the throat of a man trained in & maennerchor, and Union Square thunders with the anthem, for there are enough women and staid old men there to keep that geing wencdrously. The square is black with unsheltered thousands of restless human be- ings. In the plaza where the Washington Statue stands there are racks from which ‘“‘Remember the Maine” has flared in letters of red, white and blue to be glorified at last in an overwhelming splendor of gold, before dying into the blackness typifying the Maine's memory of February 15. Repeating bombs fired on a schedule of three seconds imitate the crash of battle and reddea ‘the sky from which the pent-up rain is released in torrents. “Glory, glory, hallelujah!’ comes in the blare of horns, the beat of drums, the tramp of feet and the roar of voices. The Bowery is moving west. Todging-houses have turned out their thousands. The missions are closed. The Salvation Army is deserted. The cheap theaters are vacant. Dolly Fewclothes is smirking at tired fraus and empty chairs. Only the waiters applaud when she asks if Dewey done’em. The Irish comedian’s care- ful plot with the orchestra leader who an- swers the query, “What is a Spanish hoo- doo?’ with “‘Dewey”’ goes flatter than death, New York is mad, and the Bowery has gone with the band. The Sixty-ninth Regi- ment marches by, Irish boys all. Every mother’s son of them was at mass in the morning. A priest is their chaplain. He marches at the head of the column, with the Colonel. They are going to camp at Hempstead. They may never be shot; they may never smell] powder. Yet, as they go by, the first note of sorrow is heard. Women who never knew those husky, hard scrap- pers wail at the thought, the reality that solid marching line awakens. In all the celebration of victory there has been no thought of the dead on that victor#- ous fleet at Manila. We won and the glad- ness is paramount. The Sixty-ninth Band plays ‘“‘The Gir! I Left Behind Me” and the Bowery boys drown that ancient, lightsome air with their glories as they go marching on. Brokdway is red with flags. It is blocked with people. The cable cars stretch in unbroken lines from Fourteenth street to Twenty-eighth street, blocked by the un- foreseen crush. In the plaga at the junc- tion of Fifth avenue and Broadway, a stand has been hastily built. <A band tn brilliant untform is laboring with national airs It furnishes a background for impromptu ore- tory, and no one notices that eS | Rain has drizzled, sprinkled, poured gince | “Louisiana | wr Lou" is thought by the leader to be a song that stirs our blood. Down respectable Fifth avenue swings a band, unatteched, irresponsible, apparently, but generously giving forth in gusts of joy “Unchain the Dogs of War." The people recognize the Sousa march, they appreciate the spirit of the players, and those Germans, striding magnificently, puffing ~gloriously, march through the lane made in the center of the mad mob. The up-town theaters are filled with « strange crowd which will not endure the ordinary bill. It mocks the athletes, snick- ers at the dying heroine, beats the floor and its hands in ecstacy whenever the orchestra touches the tunes jt longs for. Mrs. Fiske and Maud Adams play to such handfuls as must sour the face of the managers. Restaurants are overflowed; saloons are overflowing. Dealers in drinks have in many up-town, popular places, where Many flags are displayed, and where a band plays the right music, opened annex bars to ac- commodate the rush. New York is mad. You do not know what It ts to be within range of the enemy's guns should « Spanish flotilla undertake to harry the coast.

She celebrated not so much the fall of Manila; she glorifies net so much the defeat of Spain's Asiatic squad- ron, as she celebrates and glerifies the dém- onstration that the American Navy is strong enough to protect her. She drinks Zamordni, champagne, Scateh, Chianti, Ar- rack, beer—anything but sherry. That comes from Spain and cured by Montijo, ‘Even the East Side is ablaze.

There has been « hint of “Atlanta to the sea, while we march through Georgia’’—and not pausing to con- clude the strain the low-browed, bilack- hatred, swarthy leader ¥ sweeping his bow to the majestic tre of “The Star Spangled Banner.” There is a line of pain along the top of every scalp. every mouth is dry, Years are in all eyes, vol- leys of cheers are rolling from all throats and wild hands are waving @ flag, @ scarf, a tablecloth, a handkerchief or & nep- kin. No one is silly. not even the white- haired giant who is climbing to the ceiling on a table and amid broken crockery yell- ing for cheers for Dewey; not even the stolid musicians scraping correctly through the music they do not understand. Not even the voiceless man who tells this story with his trembling pen. New York is mad and it Is glorious to be mag on euch a night. JON E. GORGE. PANDO GIVES UP BAYAMO TO GARCIA.

WEDDING OCCURRED IN BROWNSVILLE, PA. | “Attorney Garesche’s Withdrawal and | The Old Steamboat Captain Has the Subsequent Hypothetical Eject- ment From the Cilub- room. The Jefferson Club had an extraordinarily interesting session Monday night, by more different kinds of harmony accompanied by more eniivening than the-association as confreanted the last time Hug) undertook to break into members) Dp. The purpose of the meeting, as stated In the call, was ‘‘to consider the elub’s policy in regard to the com! Democratic prima- ries and to formulat: i declaration of prine- ciples for the next campaign.”’ This was rather a wide-open purpose, aS May be observed, and it prolonged the session from 8 o’clock until after 1! A special committes, of Boogher was Chairman, reported that it had made careful inquirs into the method of electing delegates to State conventions and found that since 1878 the wards had always chosen their delegates direct and without the interposition of a city convention. Mr. Boogher read a letter front Chairman Bam Cook of the Democratic Com- mittee, in which Mrz Cook says: “The call issued thts year for the selec- tion of the Stete delegation ts in accord- ance with precedent 1s far back as I can remember anything bout State politics. The delegates must be elected by wards, under the State call, to be regular. The St. Louls delegation can meet in general con- vention under a cali issued by your City Committee for the purpose of passing reso- hutfons. Should,the unit rule be adopted Committee will settle the question whether or not it willl be binding. The policy has been to treat each ward as a county and the variois woting precincts as townships. I am @4ssured by Chairman Blong that the call of the city convention will in strict conformity with the State call, and I have no doubt this will be done.” But that is not what the row was about. All this had been settled several days ago. Wiiliam H. O’Brien offered a set of resolu- tions annourcing that the Jefferson Club recognized no factions in Democratic ranks and had no ultertor purposes to serve and and scenes Slhice Nrady iich John H. = I le that nobody could claim the support of the Mr. O’Brien’s documy.nt. club before action had been taken by a Democratic conventian, This was where the division of sentiment began. President Folk called Vice-President Harry B. Hawes to the chair and presented a eeries of resolutions aa a substitute for They were a bomb shell and by infererte opened all the half- ‘healed. sores of all’ the aching» orators in and out of the club. . Several members ¢f the City Democratic Committee were prisent by invitation, as were a number of &@ther prominent Demo- erates. Friends of vVuilliant pliched into the City Committee becvuse of the short ffme in which to prepate for the yrrimaries., Friends of Marshalk jumped on Lee Meril- wether. Meriwether and his crowd came back at the assailants. Then several mem- bers of the City (‘ommittee chipped in, ’a@mong them John Ij Duffy, with an occa- sienal speech by Tom Barrett and Tommy Cannon. mbt f eC In the midst of tha muss the voice of Col. Hill could be heard above the din, mingled with those. of Minor Meriwether, Mr. McDermott and Breck Jones, Harmony culminated when Attorney Gar- , @sche demanded to know by what authority he was invited there and why he should | have been asked to appear and.then denied the right to vote on propositions which he condemned, President Folk auswered sharply. Mr. Garesche retorted with bitine sarcasm and FAid he would at once withdraw from the meeting. As the wrathful attorney walked down the aisle, President Foik shouted af- ter him: “The sergeant-at-arms wil} Sentleman leaves the hall.” The fun began asain in a few minutes and many assaults ‘were made upon Presi- dent Folk’s substitu'e for the O’Brien reso- lution, one of them being slaughtered.

Mr. Doerr issued the bench war- rant last Thursday on which Williams was arrested. The warrant directed that Wil liams be arrested and locked up in fail and there securely kept. Deputy Sheriff Schuster testified that he served the warrant and delivered the pris- oner over to the chief deputy. By other witnesses it was shown Williams remained in jail only a few hours, Thursday. Troll and Walker were ca court and questioned about whereabouts since hig arrest. They admit- ted that the prisener had spent only a short while in jatl. Judge Zachritz told them their actions were entirely without the pale of the law, and they must answer for it. Citations, re- turnable Wednesday, were issued, inform- ing the deputies that they must show cause why they should not be punished for con- tempt of court. Deputy Shetiff Becker was then dispatched to the grand tontg rooms with instructions to drop all other work and report at once to the court. They promptly obeyéd the mandate, Jvuage Zachritz said in substance: “T had hoped that it would ®®unnecessary to call you before me again to be burdened with any further work. .But something has occurred Which renders prompt action ab- solutely necessary.

But I will submit to you, through the Assistant Circuit Attorney, all the proofs I have collected. You will also examine carefully other wit- nesses and if you find the evidence suffi- cient you will promptly return indictments. “T find that the prisoner was placed in jail Thursday. He remained in there a mumber of hours that day. That night he was taken out and spent the night in hotel. Since then he has been in jail at no time that I can learn. “This action on the part of the deputies is especially offensive in view_Lof the fact that the Sheriff had been givefi explfeit in- structions to Keep the prisoner in jail. And further, in view of the fact that the Court at the time had under advisement the appli- cation for his release on bond. “Such conduct on the part of a public official is a crime, It demands immediate action. This is a serious matter—more se- rious than one would at first think. It makes a plaything of the law. If court officials pay no heed to the law and are allowed to show partiality then we may as well suspend the courts and the laws. “Gentlemen, you will be instructed in the law covering the case by the Assistant Cir- cuit Attorney. I will call your attention to sections 3732 and 3734 of the Revised Stat- utes of the State of Missquri. “Gentlemen, you will now retire, and T trust you will make early report on this matter, but not until you have thoroughly sifted the entire matter.” ’ Chief Deputy Troll left the Four Courts immedjately after he was through listening to his arraignment by Judge Zachriiz.

The result for some time past has been unfortunate, The politicians would use the Bar Asso- clation resolutions as a club to defeat its candidates and would always oppose them. The whole matter was talked over at the meeting and it was practically decided that the best thing the Par Association could do would be to refrain from naming any candli- dates, but to use such influence as it could command to assist the best men to the The result will be that there will be no Bar’ Associatiog candidates set up for the ward politicians to howl over.

Tozier accepted the offer and gave the man $1. The solicitor then attempted to escape without giving her the coupon. ‘Mrs. Tozier followed him with a biackthorn stick, and, overtaking the fugitive, dealt him a heavy blow on the head. A brief skirmish resulted, but the fellow got away. Mrs. Tozier tried to establish the identity of the swindler at the Four Courts Tuesday but without success.

The site is a tract of 300 acres, six biocks south of Arsenal street, on King’s high- way; It was recommended by Lieut. Letch- er Hardeman, United tSates Army, the re- cruiting officer, appointed to muster the State troops into the regular service. Officers in the regiment who should know @ay that Lieut. Hardeman’s recommenda- tion had great weight and that on its re- ceipt Gen. Bell acquiesced in the selection of the heighis as a camping place. Gen, Bel] was-in consultation with Lieut. Hardeman al! morning as to the best meth- od of Jaying out the camp. It was said on authority that the object of the Adjutant- General's visit was not to pass on the site but to hasten preparations for the concen- tration of the men. en. Bel] came to St. Louis from Jefferson City Tuesday morning. He dodged officers of the regiment who were waiting for him at the Pianters’ Hotel, and left the M:s- sourl Pacific train at Benton station, where Lieut. Hardeman awaited him. The two officers went over the camping ground and made a thorough inspection of the surroundings. Lieut. his reasons’ Thr Belecting the Gen. Bell expressed himself as pleased: with the location. Charles Schweickhardt, in Forest Park, and who to have the os selected as a camping lace, is sorely disappointed, It was said y an officer of the-regiment Tuesday that Mr. Schrweickhardt’s apparent interest in having the Forest Park site, and Nighly who sells liquor worked so hard troops located in was one of the redsons why the park was not selected “It was felf.”’ said the officer, ‘‘that it would be wrong and subrasive of military discipline to have ahe camp located near @ saloon. This is wo reflection on the Missouri soldiers.

Edward O’Flaherty, Old and Blind, Discovered at Last. — The body o: Edward O'Flaherty, the old man whose disappearance was detailed in Monday’s Post-Dispatch, was found in the river at the foot af Market street, Tuesday afternoon. Mr. O'Flaherty was blind and at times mentally deranged. He lived with his wife and daughter, the latter Mrs. Hickey, at 1434 North Twelfth street. He walked away from his home Friday afternoon and an immediate search of the neighborhood yielded no trace of him. Since then the police have watched the en- tire city to recover him, but without avail. It is now known he went straight to the river and walked in. He had been a stonemason, but a chipping put one of his eyes out and the other went blind from sympathy. NEWSBOY ROBBED AND BEATEN. Brutal Assault by Highwaymen on Little Joel Baker.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 3.—Thomas Gill, Robert Lyon and Thomas Nevitt, the County Judges of St. Clair County, spent two hours with Judge Phillips of the United States Circuit Court discussing the action to be taken in the matter of the famous railroad bonds which have caused so much trouble, and have been the means of send- ing so many of the judges to jail because they refused to order a tax levy for their payment. The plan of action, as agreed upon by Judge Philips and the county judges, is for the county to hold.a special election on June 22, at which time the ques- tion of issuing bonds to pay off the old debt Is to be voted upon. This compro- mise provides that the county shall :issue bonds to the amount of $400,000, the face value of the original bonds. The bond- holders, whose claims, including Interest for nearly thirty years, now amount to $1,500,000, agree to rebate the interest and accept the face value of the bonds as fuil payment.

APPRAISERS GET $10 EACH. oo The Court Is to Protect Stockholders and Not to Distribute Money, Says the Judge. Judge Talty is demonstrating that he pro- poses to run the receivership of the North End Building and Loan Association in his own. way, with a due regard for the interests of the stockholders and with very little re- gard for those who want to tell him how to do it. In the face of the energetic protests of the State Supervisor of Building and Loan As- sociations, Judge Talty appointed his own receiver, and went right ahead regardless of the assignment made by the new board. Tuesday morning he made two orders in the case showing that he means business. The first order was that a)]] claims must bexpresented at the office of Receiver Char- trand, 505 Chemical] Building, on May 16, 17 or 18, between the hours of 10 a. m. and 5 p. m., or be forever barred as claims. Then he took up the modest little request of the appraisers, A. R. Schollmeyer and Edward Beckman, for $25 each. They valued a piece of real estate at $800. an old safe at $15, one table at 10 cents and six chairs at 5 cents each. Judge Talty handed down a memorandum as follows: “Appraisers ask that they be allowed $26 each for their services. As almost the en- tire assets of the company consist of loans represented by bonds secured by deeds of trust and stock, there was but little prop- erty to assess, and we think the amount of compensation asked by the appraisers is excessive. We think that $10 will be ample compensation to each and they will be al- lowed that amount.” In connection with the allowance Judge Talty said: ‘‘Ten dollars its liberal. I pro- pose to let the stockholders understand that this court is here to protect them and not to distribute exorbitant fees broadcast to every person who may happen to have a little work to do in winding up the af- fairs.’’ Attorney J. R. Kinealy, who represents the receiver, said that he considered $10 a liberal amount, as the work done was per- functory in its character. —- ee ‘TO MRS. PINKHAM From Mrs. Walter EB.

MORNING SESSION WAS WINDY. | No Vote Has Yet Been Taken on the | Movement to Organize 1 New Political Party. . On the calling to order of the National Labor and Reform Committee at Walhalla Hall at 9 o'clock Tuesday morning the sec- ond day's session developed into a continu- | ance of the argumen: that resulted In ad-— journment at 10 o'clock Monday night after two hours of discussion on the resolutien | to form a new political party. Chairman L. C. Cleaver was not present at the opening hour and Vice-Chairman E. eS Q. Norton cailed the delegates to order. | There were less than one-half of thee | present, The friends of the resolutions who were | present wanted their consideration taken | up immediately. This proposition was | combatted on the ground that to act on s§0 important a measure without the presence of every properly accredited delegate would be for a class tq legisiate for all the delegates, a thing that all reformers abhorred and strive against in govern- ments. Chairman Cleaver came in during the pre- liminary airing of opinions on parli@ment- ary usages and assumed the chair. Motions flew thick and fast between speeches, and | frequent delays were oecasioned by the ne- | cessity for the chairman to explain wade the converttion ‘was ‘‘at.”’ The various sets of new party resolutions had been submitted at the previous session under the fourth clause of the order of business mentioned in the call, ‘“‘to consider the political situation in relation to the in- terests of the producers and to take any necessary action thereon.” Finally at 10:30 o'clock it was decided by unanimous vote to pass the objects of the debate to the sixth clause of the call. By resolutions of Delegate Norton of Mo- bile the convention expressed itself as of the opinion that no labor organization move- | ment should be pursued on sectional or class | lines. The resolution was inspired, Mr. Nor- | ton said, by the attemnees of manufacturing | interests to organize the textile workers of the South in new unions to oppose the ex- isting organizations and to create inter- | necine strife-in Jabor organizations. Thomas H. Grundy, the aged Socialist of | Pittsburg, who is a delegate from a labor league, spoke at length in favor of a reso- | lution and advocating the principles of the | Co-operative Commonwealth or Socialism. | Mr. Grundy said that the fundamenta} prin- | ciple of the Co-operative Commonwealth alone provided a way to bring back the land into the possession of all the people, the end aimed at by single taxers. Delegate Norton, who is a Single Tax ad- vocate, followed with @ speech for his be- liefs. He took exception to Mr. Grundy’s contention. The Grundy resolution developed a debate between the socialists and single taxers. John S. Crosby of New York followéd Mr. Norton with a red hot single tax speech. — MaRS MARY JONEZZases” CHICAGO ONLY WOMAN DALGCAT ee rf Lj, ‘ S vy vy YH + 0% . yh . . tit _ a SCENES AT THE LABOR MEETING.

Angell, United States Minister to Turkey. The wedding is the culmination of a pret- ty romance, whioh will interest Mr. Scul- lin’s many friends in St. Louis, and will eause an equal amount. of gossip in Chicago, where the bride is well known in society. Mr. Scullin met Miss Angell in (Chicago lees than five months ago. He had gone there on a business trip, expecting to stay only a few days. It was just before the grand opera season. M! , society a great deal and at a reception met Miss Angell. As a graduate of the Univer- sity of Michigan, of which Miss Angell's uncle was president, he was well received. On the opening night of the opera season he gave a box party in honor of Miss Angell. He lengthened his visit and was in con- stant attendance on his fair charmer. But one obstacle stood in the way of their union. Miss Angell was a Congregationalist while Mr. Scullin was a Catholic, The tenets of Mr. Scullin’s faith would not permit his un.on with a non-Catholic except by special dispensation. After much consultation Miss Angell decided to join the Catholic Church. She was instructed in the faith and baptized by Rev. Father Tighe of the Holy Angeis’ Church, who also performed the marriage ceremony Tuesday morning. About 20 guests were present at the wedding, among them a large party of St. Louis friends of the bridegroom, who went to Chicago in a private car. Mr. and Mrs. Scullin will leave Chicago Tuesday evening on a wedding tour. On their return they will be at home at the Vincennes Hotel. They will probably reside in 8t. Louis. Frederick W.

A good start has been made to sod the new City Hall Park and the Mayor expects to be able to gaze on a green sward over the entire square by Saturday.

PLAN OF PRACTICAL HARMONY COMPLETED. CO-OPERATION OF FORCES To AD- VANCE THE INTERESTS OF BOTH. RIVAL COUNTRY CHURCHES TO BE CONSOLIDATED. Jubilation on the Part of Leading Min- isters, Who See the Beginning of the Day of Uni- versal Peace. A Methodist Federation with 180,000 mem- bers is practically assured for Missouri. Under the scheme proposed the Metho- dist churches that were separated because _of negro slavery will work together in har- ‘mony for the advancement of the Wesley- an faith, while not fn reality united. The question of church union has long been North and South Church. Resolutions, ‘couched in diplomatic language but bar- In that event a call | ren of effectiveness, have been passed be- tween governing bodies. Committees have closed their labors with interchanges of courtesies and the two great churches were yet far apart. Conditions in Missouri have long im- pressed the leading churchmen with a be- lief that a change was necessary. Then the plan for a federation was ad- vanced. Rev. Dr. Jesse Bowman Young, in the current issue of his paper, the Cen- tral Christian Advogate, the official organ of the Northern Church, warmly espouses the movement. He says: ‘‘Missouri has reason for feeling unusual interest in all the questions at issue, for Methodism is one of the chief factors of social and religious life. In this great commonwealth our sister church has a membership of 108,000 and we have in round numbers 75,000. In the cities there is not much rivalry between the two denom- inations. ‘In many country places, however, we are confronted by the unseemiy spec- tacle of two Methodist churches, neither one self-supporting, each one living ata poor, dying rate, on a starvation allowance, when it is clear that if the two were united a self-respecting, self-supporting, in- fluential and growthful organization, prop- erly representing Methodism, would as- | su s got in the center of the crowd of mourners | me its fitting and leading place in the community.”’ Among other matters that have been reommended for the consideration of the clergy and laity are the preparation of a ! unpainted coffin and rented @ | ' ' i ' | ' ' | | where it | suffer with any form of sexual |S, ‘common catechism, Hymn book and order of public worship for both churches; a joint administration of the publishing interests in China and Japan, closer co-operation in foreign missionary work and the prevention of hurtful competition between the two de- nominations at home. ™ Hearty indorsements of the plan came from all quarters of the State. A few are presented here. Bishop Thomas Bowman: “I was much pleased with the plan for a joint federa- tion commission between the two great Methodist churches. Such work will natur- ally bring these churches into closer and warmer fraternity and will tend to increase the brotherhood of all the Christian churches and the people generally. I most heartily indorse the plans proposed.” Bishop E. R. Hendrix: “I heartily favor the proposed scheme of federation and deem that it is entirely practicable to carry out all its provisions.” Rev. Dr. J. H. Pritchett, M. E. Church, South, Albany, Mo.: ‘“‘While enjoying the reputation of intense loyalty to my own or- ganization, and while fully committed to the integrity and perpetuation of its mis- sion, I do pray for such relationships to and such co-operations with all other bodies of Christians as will best enable the entire church to cultivate the field. Especially do I desire to see Methodism make the best possible use of her high calling and glorious heritage.’’ Sev. Dr. John W. Hancher, Grand Ave- nue Methodist Church, Kansas City: ‘“The union of the two great forms of Methodism would multiply the potency and value of the separate forces by more than two, and many believe by more than two times two. Rev. Oliver M. Stewart, St. Louis: ‘‘The purpose is unmistakably in harmony with the decay of old issues, the tendency of the times and the true spirit of Christianity.” Rev. W. T. McClure, M. E. Church, South, Kansas City: “I am in heartiest sympathy with the movement in behalf of Methodist federation, and devoutly thankful that so amicable an adjustment could be made.”’ Expressions of similar sentiment were re- ceived from Rev. 8S. H. Werlein, Lafayette Park M. E. Church South; Dr. W. B. Pal- more, editor St. Louis Christian Advocate; Dr. Thomas M. Finney of the Provident Association; James L. Carlisle of the M. E. Church South; Dr. William A. Quayle of Kansas City; Rev. R. H. Cooper, Mexico; Rev. J. 8S. Chick of Cameron; Rev. J. J gl St. Joseph, and Rev. W. Lee of St. ouis. With such concord the ministers believe that the plan will meet the favor of their respective conferences and be rapidly put into execution. School Board Committee Meetings.

She Told Her Story While Begging for Him and Will Be Sent Back to Her Mother. Little Ethel Holzhauser, who wag kid- napped by a blind man two weeks ago and forced to lead him through the streets on begging missions, has not yet returned to her home, 2013 North Broadway. The: girl’s mother received word from Mexico, Mo., authorities two days ago that Ethel had been located there. She was singing on the public highway and while passing a tin cup around for contributions told her story to a prominent citizen, wh? informed the authorities. Ethel’s adventure began with her answer to an advertisement in a St. Louis paper for a 12-year-old girl who could sing. She ap- plide at room 6, 923 Olive street, and found @ blind man, middle-aged, who said his name was G. Taylor; and a woman who was introduced as-his. wife. They said they wanted a little girl to sing at entertainments and that they would pay $5 a week salary. The child told her mother, who became sus- picious and forbade Ethel to call on the Taylors. Mrs. Holzhauser is employed in one of the downtown hotels, and is away from home all day. When she returned from work at 7 p. m, Monday two weeks azo Ethel was missing. Investigation showed she had been at the room occupied by the Tavlors and that they had left the city. The local police could learn little else and yt when the distracted mother gave up all hope of ever seeing her child again, the welcome report of her discovery came from Mexico, Mo. There were sufficient details to show that Ethel was being kept by them against her will. At Montgomery City, she had appealed to a local banker, who when he attempted to Interfere, was told by the blind man that the girl was his daughter. When a Post-Dispatch reporter called at the rooms of Mrs. Holzhauser on the third floor of the dingy tenement, he found no one there, but on the open door was tacked the following note: Ethel—I waited as long as I could, expect- ing you would come this morning. But I left the door open for you. Don't go away. MOTHER. The girl is said to have a remarkably sweet voice for a child, and she has been ambitious to sing tn public. It is expected that she will return Tues- day evening. If not, the Mexico authori- ties will be telegraphed to for further in- formation. WESTERN DRAWING TEACHERS. Mrs. Riley of St. Lovis Wil!

STORY OF A RUINED HOME, Partnership Troubles, Possession of Household Goods and a Divorce Are the Complications. Three law suits are pending In the Cir- cuit Courts which taken collectively tell a story of a wrecked home and domestic difficulties interwoven with business af- fairs which sounds like a story out of a book. One suit is in Judge Talty’s division it is Georgie B. Kinnan against Albert B. Kin- nan for divorce. It is going up on an ap- peal, the decree having been refused. The second is in Judge Withrow’s court, and is the interpleader suit of the J.. B, Brown Storage Co. against Mr. and Mrs. Kinnan, The third is on Judge Spencer's dockef? for immediate trial and is the suit of Albert B. Kinnan against Adolph Butze, William BE. Butze, his son and J. 8S. Manchester, a bookkeeper, and the Railway Supply Co. Chapter I. of the story is told in Kin- nan’s petition in Judge Spencer’s Court. He says that on Sept. 1, 18%, he went into partnership with Adolph Butze in the railway supply and packing supply busi- ness. Mr. Kinnan had been the right- hand man of Supt, Wickes here in the Pullman Company and was then with the Swift Packing Company. Kinnan was to be a secret partner and was to throw all the Swift business to the firm that he could. Butze, with his big railroad pull, was to do the rest. They were to divide the profits according to Mr. Kinnan. Their business relations threw them much to- gether. Mr. Kinnan and Mr, Butze were friends and Mr. Butze met Mrs. Kinnan who was a very charming lady. The second chapter comes up in courtroom No, 2, Judge Talty’s court. Mrs. Kinnan sues Mr. Kinnan for divorce and says he drinks and fails to support her properly. Mr. Kmnan answers with a cross- bill, which is knocked out because he failed to pay alimony in time, but it is on record, In it he says that on October 1, 1896, Mrs. Kinnan went to Montreal, Canada, on a ticket furnished by Mr. Adolph Butze; that she spent a month in the Windsor Hotel there as the guest of Mr. Butze and then re- turned to St. Louis with Mr, Butze. When the case was heard Mrs. Kinnan admitted all of these charges under cross-examination and testified further that she and Mrs. Butze were not good friends and that Mr. Kinnan and Mr. Butze were enemies at the time she was in Montreal with Mr. Butze. She said Mrs, Butze was living at Jennings Station in the suburbs of St. Louis. The third chapter bobs up in No. 7 in the Kinnan-Butze suit. Mr. Kinnan says that in 1896, while he was away, Butze, his son, and Manchester, the bookkeeper, reorgali- ized the business and shut him out entirely, leaving him nothing whatsoever, and that they owe him $10,000 as his share of the firm’s business. The defendants deny this and say that Kinnan never had an interest ~ the business at all, but was only an em- ploye. The fourth chapter is tn Judge Withrow’'s Court. The Brown Storage Company comes into court with a long list of house- hold furniture which they say was stored by Mrs. Kinnan, but which is claimed by both parties. The storage company ks the court to decide which of the two shall have it. In the trial of the case Mr. Butze again figures. Mrs. Kinnan testi- fled that Mr. Butze assumed the mort- gage on the furniture on condition that Mr. Kinnan reingulan all claims to It. Mr. Kinnan denied that any such under- Standing had been arrived at. Judge Withrow divided the property hbe- tween them and both have appealed to the higher court. Mr. Kinnan’s lawyers now promise to bring out some interesting facts about the railway supply business when the case bhe- fore Judge Spencer is heard. Mr. Kinnan testified in the divorce case that his wife helped him spend $100,000 ana that now he is a Pullman conductor at $75 a month. —— ~ — -—< —— a 0 eo LT eS ee a ee A PURE GRAPE CREAM OF TARTAR POWOER ‘DR: pace - BAKING POWDER Highest Honors, World's Pair — S kee se ae PS ke! ~ ws, - aad 5 a Ri Mea es a ogo, 52 a es see Z : indie’ DP SE De ae * ayes et : ee ee ec es A NERC IL A Sg EBS a : - iss s Absolutely FREE with every family sized ‘‘Quicg Meat”?
