Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. a“ Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 1898. ON BOARD THE POST-DISPATCH BOAT TRITON, OFF SANTIAGO,. Monday, May 30, by way of Port An- -tonio, Jamaica, June 1.—Commodore Schley’s squadron and the Spanish ships of Admiral Cervera had their first engage- ment Sunday night about midnight. The Spaniards beat an ignominous retreat without firing. Their injuries are not khows. but were probably slight, as they retreated at great speed. . The engagement came very much as a surprise. attack. They made a desperate effort to destroy the American ships. the vigilance of the men under Capt. Phillips of the Texas. The two torpedo boat destroyers, black, low, long, slim race horses of war, had sneaked out of their harbor and were creeping along in the dense shadow of the Castke Morro and the mountain at the entrance of the harbor. They had traveled two miles to the westward when the officer of the deck on the Texas sighted them through his night glasses. Instantly the ocean was dazzling in its reflection of the great streams of light pouring over it. Two of the searchligkits of the Texas had shot home their rays, and there lay the enemy ready to make a dashing onslaught upon the American ships. The flashing of the lights told the Spaniards that they were discovered, and they made a rush with all speed on toward the Brooklyn and Texas. It was too late. Before their bows swung around, the crews of the port batteries of the Texas were pumping steel at Three rapid-fire gids were singing their song of defiance. They were “Remembering the Maine.” In an instant the machine guns of the Brooklyn were singing the refrain. The indescribable din of the guns of the Texas and the Brooklyn alarmed the whole fleet. The other ships were lying further off shore and could not safely put their guns at work. The call to general] quarters was sounded on each of them in the belief that all of Cervera’s fleet was coming out in a desperate effort to escape. Searchlights were played on the water by all of the ships, making the battlefield as bright as day. The Texas and the Brooklyn poured such a furious shower of small shells at the torpedo boat destroyers that they were forced to turn about and seek safety in the harbor. What damage they sustained is unknown. The torpedo boat destroyers soon had enough. and took shelter under the forts. No attempt to pursue them was It is thought that neither of them was struck, as they retreated quickly and they made small targets in the twilight. The Spaniards did not discharge torpedoes, though they got within 500 yards of the Texas. Why they did not may never be known. The greatest vigilance has been maintained at night on the American fleet to prevent just such attacks as this one was. It is the most. trying of all duty on shipboard. The nerve-racking duty will soon have its effect upon the officers and men, who hope to end it all in one decisive swoop upon the Spanish fleet and the forts. | While Commodore Schley appreciates the difficulties and danger of entering the harbor to fight Cervera, who is pro- ed by batteries and mines, it is understood that he nevertheless is anxious to repeat Dewey’s feat at Manila, preferring en a risky action to the tedious delay. His ships have made examinations of the batteries and the channel, revealing much stronger guns and mines than were supposed to exist. This will make dislodging of Cervera far harder than was expected. Four rows of mines have been laid across the narrow entrance of the harbor. Early this morning the Marbicheadventured to within two miles of the harbor and positively recognized the cruiser ‘Cristobal Colon and two cruisers of the Vizcaya type and the dismantled cruiser, Reina Mercedes, upon which guns have been mounted, making her a floating fort. This leaves only two ships of the Cape Verde squadron unaccounted for, but Com- modore Schicy is sure they are further up the bay. LEX. €. KINEALY, | Special Cine of the Post- Dispatch. GEN.

The Utah artillery and cavalry have re- ceived $1500 from citizens of Salt Lake City for the benefit of the men from that city.

Before going to sea the following story of the bombardment of San- | tiago de Cuba was obtained: ea | The American squadron, under Commodore Schley, approached the entrance to the harborof Hf Santiago at about 12:30 p. m., the Iowa leading, followed by the Massachusetts and Texas. Inside the entrance to the harbor was seen one of the warships of Cervera’s fleet, stripped for | action. As the fleet drew into shore the New Orleans steamed forward ahead of the Iowa. One of the fortifications opened fire on her and she replied, the other two.ships directing the fire at the battery, Aue 4 on the Punta Gorda within the harbor and to westward of the position occupied by the Spanish S ship. The latter replied to the fire and immediately became a target for the American ships en- ttt ’ gaged in the battle. She retired behind a protecting headland and was not seen again during the engagement, The Iowa, Massachusetts, the Texas and the New Orleans kept up their terrific fire against the Morro, Socapa and Punta Gorda fortifications for an hour and a half, their projectiles, of aa: mous size, doing tremendous damage to the defenses of the harbor. The masonry of Socapa and Morro was badly shattered and the Spanish gunners deserted the forts. , After seeking the protection of a jutting headland, the Spanish warships continued te fire pro- jectiles over the hills toward the fleet, but they had no range, not even direction to their -shota, and the shells fell harmlessly into the sea. ‘ SPANISH SHIP REPORTED SUNK.

POLICEMAN THOUGHT | IT A SUICIDE. Hauled the Man ‘n and Rushed Him to the City Hospital—An .Oath That Was Not Violated. Paul Wright, 45 years old, a tramp prin- ter, attempted to swim the Mississipp! River to avoid violating a solemn oath never to add to the income of the ® Louis Bridge Co. It was not necessary for Wright to swear never to pay railroad fare for as a matter of course the idea of paying such fare fiever entered his head. " But bridge tolls had been impressed upon his mind forcibly several times when he Was rudely repulsed upon attempung to exercise his prerogative of passing free over the Eads bridge. Wright intended to ass through 58Bt. Louis on his twenty-fifth annua tour across the continent. He hails last from Philadelphia. He had sworn by all the eacred traditions of his guild that he would get into St. Louls without paying bridge tolls. The oath of a tramp printer is in- violate, as everybody knows, When he arrived in East 8t. Louis he was much worried to devise a means -of crossing the river with his honor unblem- ished He tried the old bluff on the bridge col- lector, but it didn't go. “. “Does the bridge company own the rivér?” he asked. The bridge collector blushed with shame and was forced to admit that the river was mot part of the bridge company’s posses- “Then I won't have to pay toll for the privilege of swimming?" The collector sorrowfully said no. Wright retraced his steps and went to fhe ba.wk. Delighted to find some means of crossing the river ths n't owned by the bridge company, ha plunged boldly into the swoll- en stream aod struck out boldly for the other shore. He made a manful effort to reach the Misseouri side, but the swift current was too uch for him. He was about to sink when 1¢ felt himeelf grasped by strong arms and praseee into a boat. He saw a policeman, iia rescuer. “So I have to pay toll for this,”’ asked AVrigcht,; seized by sudden fear. “Of course not,"’ said the policeman. “Thank Ged, my oath is safe!" exclaimed Wright. The polleeman thought Wright had at- geampted suicide and sent him to the City Tiosepital, where he is recovering. “Death would have been preferable: ta ayving toll to that bridge company,” said fright Wednesday. “My oath wouldn't qlilow it. The traditions of my trade and membersh'p in the Ancient and Honorable Order of Itinerant Printers was against it. Go Iswum. Here Iam, and no toll paid.” OR PAQUIN VICTORY —_ AALL HIS CLAIMS UPHELD AS THE RESULT OF A CONTEST BE- FORE JUDGE KLEIN. Dr. Paul Paquin, after a stormy time in the courts, has won his suit against his former partner, John T. Milliken, over the settlement of their partnership in the tu- berculosis serum business. The case has been bitterly fought all the way through the courts and Mr. Milli- kgn has made some severe attacks upon Dr. Paquin's great discovery. These, how- ever, had no effect in the decision of the case, as the merits of Dr. Paquin’s formulas were not at issue. In January, 18%, Dr. Paquin and Mr. Milliken formed a partnership for the man- ufacturre and sale of Dr. Paquin's tubercu- josia serum, Milliken put in $10,000 and the doctor the fornrula. Under the first papers the doctor was to get the first $10,000 in yrofits and after that¢ghe was to.get four- Seths and Mr. Milliken one-fifth. Later sore money waa needed and it was fur- mished by Mr. Milliken, who became a full rtner with an equal half interest In the usiness. The business went on until November of that same year, when the p&@rtnership was dissolved and Milliken sold out for $22.78, taking $15,000 in cash and the rest in three motes for $2500 each, signed by Robert L. Owen and Paul Paquin. Mr. Owen had been taken in as a partner by the doctor in place of Milliken under the dissolution reement. Milliken was not to go into the serum business for a year, nor to have wnything to do with it In any way. When the first note for $ came due, Dr. Paquin refused to pay it, saying that Milliken had violated the dissolution agree- ment. Milliken sued on the note and then ouguin sued to have him restrained from try ng to collect the notes. n the trial of the injunction suit Dr. Paquin papeeees a contract between Milli- ken and Dr. Crandall, whereby Crandall, a@t the end of a year, should give Milliken a three-fifths intereet in a new serum business in return for assistance and in- formation already given. The contract with Crandall was made a few days before the signing of the agreement to dissolve the Paquin partnership. This Pa- quin claimed, was a ¢lear violation of the agreement, so he asked that all suits be stopped and that the three notes for $2600 each canceled, — The decision of Judge Klein is in accord- ance with Dr. Paguin’s prayer in his suit. The notes are orlered canceled and Milli- ken i# perpetually enjoined from suing for their payment. No accounting is ordered because the business has changed in char- acter and circumstances so that it is im- possible now to arrive at any definite con- clusion on @ money basis. It is a decided victory for Dr. Pa A ‘ quin and him from an annoying obstacie. — ee ee ee He Went Into Parliament for the Pur- pose of Helping Seamen.

RECRUITING OFFICES AT LIGHT BATTERY HAS SENT AN ‘ OFFICER TO ENLIST ITS NEW MEMBERS. EXAMINING BOARD | READY FOR DUTY. | Soldiers in Demand to Fill the Quota Already in Camp Before Enlist- ments Under the Second Call Are Commenced. A recruiting office where men may enlist to fill up the Ist Regiment of Missouri! will be opened in the old Post-Office Building, Third ané@. Olive etreets, just as“ soon as Adjt,-Gen. Bell receives telegrams from the War Department that are hourly expected. A recruiting office for Battery A will also be opened in the same bullding. The two will be separate, the infantry office in charge of Gen. Bell andthe artil- lery office in charge of an officer of the battery, who is on his way to St. Louis from Chickamauga. +The, only reason for delay is that Gen. Bett has no one here to do the recruiting, which Involves a deal of red tape and hard work and takes time. Gen. Bell has asked that the necessary army officers be assigned to assist him for such time as may be necessary. The St. Louisans who are anxious to join the list Regiment are no more desirous of getting in than Ger. Bell is to have them enrolled. “I want to get those 1700 men for Mis- sourl’s five regiments just as quick as pos- sibie,”” he said Wednesday morning. “As soon as we get them ehipped down to Chickamauga we will be ready for the second call, but until then the thousands who want to go with-the, new regiments will have to walt. ‘The instant when help arrives in the shape of officets to do the enlisting, we will open an office at Third and Olive streets and‘receive men as fast as can come in. ; Capt. Rumbold of the battery has taken the work of recruiting his command off my hands, for which I am grateful. Me wired me,.asking if he could send an officer here to select his men. I telegraphed him to send ahead.”’ Lieut. Hardeman, who mustered Into service al] of the Missouri volunteers, has beem detalled to stay here and swear the new men in. This will be done at Jeffer- eon Barracks, where the men will be sent as fast as enlisted. Lieut. Moore will look out for their sub- sistence while there, and the recruits will be sent to their regiment. in bunches of they The wishes of men enlisting who have a preference for ‘a certain company will be Tegarded, as far as possible, after they get to Chickamauga, As has been repeatedly stated a total of 17022 men are*’wanted from this State. Of these about 340 will be enlisted for the St. ad,uis Regiment, the ist, and & for the Battery. At 8 o'clock Wednesday evening the ex- Aamining of the 16 applicants for commis- sions will begin in the Ladieg’ Ordinary at the ‘Planters’ Hotel. The Examining Board is composed of ‘Maj. Neilson G. Edwards, chairman; Maj. ©, F. Guthrie and Lieut. Orrin Putnam, all of St. Louis. Maj. Bdwards was connected with the Missour!| National Guard from 1876 until quite recently when business forced him to resign. He is now secretary of the Kennard Carpet Company. Maj. Guthrie served four years in the famous Confederate regiment commanded by Col, Gates, and rose from the ranks. He was chief deputy under Excise Commis- sioner Bell. Lieut. Putnam was First Lieutenant in Company E, ist Regiment, for a number of years, and was at one time acknowledged to be the best drilled man in the regiment. These gentlemen compose a board well qualified by the varied experiences of its members to pass upon the fitness of appli- cants for the places they seck. The examination will be written. A list of about 100 questions will be given each man, and he will be required to give the answers under the eye of the examining board. ; The State law under which the board is operating requires that each applicant for a commission shall be‘examined as to .his knowledge of English grammar and his ability to read and write the English lan- guage with facility and correctness: geog- raphy, particularly of this State: arithme- tic, and his ability to apply it to practical questions; history, especially applicable to this country; the military code and reguia- tions of the National Guard of this State, especially as’ relating to military organiza- tion and grades of officers; the drill regu- lations of hisarm of the service and other text books. The examination will include the schools of the soldier, the company, the battalion, extended order, sentry duty and the cere- meonien of guard mount and battalion pa- rade. Only those who have been rotified td ap- pear will be examined to-night. Several sessions of the board will be required to examine the men who are’ ambitious to wear shoulder straps. The sessions will be held nightly and all possible haste made. No applications are accepted by Maj. Ed- wards after noon Wednesday. At that time 10 men had filled out the necessary pre- liminary blanks permitting them to take the examination, “They represent all conditions of men, mentally and physically,” said Maj. Ed- wards, “Some will make excellent officers, and I don’t know about some of the others. There are among them ex-army officers, missioned officers from the regulars, ex- National Guardsmen, both officers and rivates, and a number of graduates of Vashington and St. Louis Universities and the Culver Academy. “There are 21 commissions to be had, on the supposition that St. Louts will be al- lowed to furnish seven companies of Mis- souri’s quota under the second call. “The examination will be competitive. The Seven men nearest the top will receive Captain's commission; the second seven will become First Lieutenants, and the third seven Second Lieutenants. _- o_o Roe Place Auction.

CHICKAMAUGA, Ga., June 1.—"On to Cuba” is the cry heard in the camp of- Mis- souri’s prize light battery. This morning at an early hour the Ist Illinois Infantry Regi- ment left for Tampa, while the battery boys stood about cheering them to the echo; all the time wishing it was the artillery on the move. If rumor is to be believed it will he but a few weeks before St. Loulsans are on the march. The harness has arrived and is stored at the ordnance department near the depot. It will be delivered in a few days. During the long four-hour drill yesterday morning Capt. Rumbold announced that a field day would be held next Saturday. The programme is as follows: 100-yard run, 440- yard run, broad jump, pole vaulting, high jump, high. kick, putting the shot, tug-of- war. Three men will be chosen from each section to take part in each event, and the section scoring the most number of points will be presented with a handsome addition to their mess table by Capt. Rumbold. Al] the men are training and some really good sport should result, The fourth section have equipped their tent in a manner that adds both to its ap- pearance and their comfért. A huge canvas covering has been made for the floor, and when la:d over the straw it wHl make the tent a comfortable place in which to sleep. Qther eections have ordered the same thing for their tents. e Southern Express Co.'s wagon sto in front of the battery several times daily and great boxes are unloaded, while the boys pay great attention to Who they are for, Bertie Farrar received five good-sized boxes at one time this week, and Dexter Tiffany was not far behind. Of course all of the boxes contained something good to eat. A former employe of the Mermod & Jac- card Jewelry Co. received a neat little sum of money from the employes of that store, as a much needed addition to hig mess ta- ble. Great things are expected of the Can- teen when it is opened sometime this week. ——___ 1ST AND 2D REGIMENTS. Some Clothing Received and More Re- ported on the Way. Special to the Post-Diapatch.

Miss Sophie Euler, 1100 Porter av., East St. Louis, Ill.: “For 12 years I had been very deaf in both ears, and also suf- fered from ringing noises im the head. The deafness was gettitig worse. I became so deaf that I could not hear a piano in the next room. I could not hear the sermons at church, and in order to make me hear, people had to shout very loudly right In my ear. The head noises bothered me so that they kept me awake at night. “When I was a little girl I suffered a great deal from earache and running in the ears. This ceased and then the deafness came on. I live in De Soto, Mo., and “knew that Mr. Frank Dinning and Mr. N. M. Nimmo, both of that city. were cured pt deafness by Doctor Copeland, so I de- cided to give his treatment a trialand came to Haft St. Louls in order to put myself under his care. ‘The result is far beyond my expecta- tions. My hearing is restored. I attend the Presbyterian Mission, of which Mr. Tem- ple is pastor, and can hear him perfectly. The other day when they made so much noise across the river over the announce- ment of the war with Spain, I heard it distinctly. I heard the band playing at the East St. Louis Relay, over a mile away. In fact; I can hear as well as anybody, and owe it entirely to Doctor Copeland's treat- ment. As I am cured now I shall start for home in a few days.” Mrs. Emma Stearns, 1100 Porter avenue, sister of Miss Euler, with whom she has been stopping during treatment: ‘I know just how deaf she was. She couldn't hear me at all unless I shouted loudly in her ear. Many a time I have called very loudly to her, and she didn’t pay the slight- est attention until I went up and touched her. No one could have been worse with- The change is wonderful, and now she can hear and con- verse just like anybody else.”’ 6t.

Col.

Those felowe at Jacksonville will not even get the pante.”’ ee further on the case, Col. Salk “It is a small plece of business they are trying to do over there. When Draper made his first statement to’ the Coroner's jury he denied having been tn Judge Kir- by’s office on that night and denjed hav- ing seen Hastings. er he made his so- called confession to the minister which was submitted in writing to the jury and was in the hands of the Coroner's jury be- fore they made their finding in the «case, By the submission of this so-called, confes- sion he purged himself of all pe ry withdrawing certain statements originally made and substituting the whole true and frank® narrative of the affair. It seems rather unreasonable for a body of men to try and punish a man for perjury because he did not make a statement to them un- der which they could hang him. I do not believe that the indictment will amount to anything.’ Col, Dter said that Draper was now ih Pike County, but would be in Jacksonville Thursday morning. STABBED HIS THORAX. Charles Ww.

Barnes has been the manager of the Olympic Athletic Club of Birmingham, England, for several years and under its auspiceseall of the recent fights over there have taken place. He is now coming to America in search of boxing talent, but at the same time will bring two fighters with him that he will match against the best men in this country. The two he than Peddier champion of the champion are none other Palmer, the bantam weight bngland, and Dick Burge, lightweight of that country. Burge will be remembered as who gave Jack McAuliffe, lightweight champion, fights. Barnes will match Burge against Lavigne, Daly, McPartland., Tommy Ryan or any other iightweights in their class. Palmer will be ready to take on Tommy White, Dixon, Sammy Kelly, Dave Sullivan or any of the little fellows. The arrival of Barnes and his pugilistic Stars in this ccantry will create renewed Interest in/boxing in this country and in- ae the boom it is now enjoying in the past. the man the American such scorching The fight between Bob Douglas and Hamp Ireland, which takes place at East St. Louis Sunday, is exciting much interest in the local pugilistic world. They met in East St. Louis last winter, Douglas winning in 15 rounds. They are now training hard for their coming battle. The betting is in favor of Douglas. Among the others who will take part in the Viymple Athletic Ciub tournament is Dan- ny Whalen, who styles himeelf the 125- pound champion of Missouri. He wfll go six rounds with Chauncey. McGill, a papil of Mike Mooney. This will be one of the fastest bouts of the afternoon. The pro- gramme is better thie time than ever and some of the best fighters in Missouri and Illinois will take part. Bob Douglas appears to think that he is going to have a cinch with Hamp Ireland in their coming bout. He said this morn- ing that he was willing to bet any part of that he would stop Ireland in six rounds. SCOTTISH CLANS’ SPORTS. Entry Forms Now Out for the Meet on July 4.

Last week Jack Glasscock, the shortstop of the St. Paul, was called home to the bedsde of his wife, who was very ill, and Comiskey hopped in and played first base just as he used to in the olden times when he was the king pin in that position in the American Association.

Dr. Sheppard is the Yellow Jack of the Foster outfit and has landed second more times this year than any other horse in the country. Dr. Shep- pard will have the advantage of either ‘“Skeets’’ Martin or Willie Bioss in the sad- dle and that is a good deal in his favor. . Elusive showed by her race with Found that she was rapidly regaining her ‘last year’s form. Good as Found is at present she is not an ideal trial mare for a big race and Elusive can safely be passed up. The Inaugural winner, What-er-Lou, is a horse of a different color. While the son of White and Alma Lamar has never been re- garded as a high class stake horse, he is a mighty useful selling plater, and with only 97 pounds on his back is apt to make all his competitors know they are in a horse race when they make the home turn. What-er- Lou is a slow horse to get going. but he is a regular scorcher in the stretch. With Dupee .to pilot him it looks as if the Club Members’, like the Inaugural, will fat- ten Huffman's fast growing credit balance with the Fair Association. Milwaukee looks leniently treated, with only % pounds, and with a good boy up should give a fine account of himself. Mil- waukee scarcely impresses one as a club member's winner, and will probably find his level later on in the season.

Kitley will have the mount on Imperious, and with only S88 pounds up, the youngster has an undeni- able chance to land the big race for the Baron of Bridgeton. Briefly summed up, Lieber Karl's un- known quantity in the matter of stamina makes him a bad horse to figure on, and such being the case, What-er-Lou and Im- erious Will probably be the two contendin horses in the Club Members’ Handicap o 1898.

A year ago he was an outlaw and not considered muah of a rider. Now he is the whole thing. There is betting public in Chicago over the syndicate betting system now in vogue in the ring a' Harlem. The Chicago turf patrons want an to pay the price can draw in. Just now the which up to men interested in the privileges, John Con- don, Dan O'Leary and another person, and they have done so badly that two of them want to quit. O'Leary {fs the only one whu wants to continue, and he says he will take the whole thing if the others want to get out, to get the money. syndicate in control of the Harlem ring,, says: “If not the syndicate in the ring at Harlem, then something else has hoodooed the track, as the people are not coming out to it. A larger attendance is warranted, but the people appear to prefer other places. There is some talk that bookmakers will be allowed to cut In th's week, Just what truth there is in the rumor ie hard to tell, but it has been persistent for three days. There are several bookmakers who caine here hoping to book. Then word has come from other racing points of many that Dissatisfaction with the eyentonle ‘system and the added fact that the ring hae lost money the last week make it eeem probable that something may be done.” While the Harlem track is having a heap of trouble the St. Louis Fair Grounds is enjoying an_unprecedented season of suc- cess, The Fair Grounds ring is wide open and any reputable bookmaker is allowed to draw in there. To-day, all the big Western booktes, Including Bennett, Cella, Adler, Tilles, Mayer, Wider, Davies, Schrieber, Kerwin, Jones, Hoffman tein, Young, Fitzgeraid, Cole Ulman and others are doing business there and while the number of bookies operating in the ring is larger than last year the specu- lation is immenée. All this too In face of thre fact that the weather since the St. Louis meeting opened has not been of the best nor the track always in the right condition. Close rings are dangerous things. They will kill racing anywhere and they have really killed it In Chicago, while at the same time forcing business in this direction. The favorites at the Fair Grounds were all beaten yesterday and the bookies kept ail the money. There were a couple of bad looking rides during the afternoon and Judge Murphy made note of them. He sus- nded Elliott. who rode the well-backed Mitchell, and he put two or three others on his list. He will attend: to the latter's case later and it is safe to say that before the week closes others will have joined Elliott on the bench. Judge Murphy never takes action except when the proof is po#i- tive. He believes in the old maxim, that it is better than a hundred gullty men should escape rather than that one inno- cent should suffer. But when there is real proof he not only acts promptly, but he seldom forgets the offender.

The Globe-Democrat of Tuesday morning, May 1, contained a displayed and highly pathetic story of how one John Goltz, held in jail at Hast St. Louls on a peace war rant, made frantic efforts for release in order that he might decorate the grave of a Confederate soldier. The story was explicit and apparently yen on the authority of Chief of Police auss. The Globe-Democrat said that dur- ing the war John Goltz and his brother were in the eame Federal company; that hia brother was killed at Shiloh and bugied in @ trench; that a few years afterwards he met a Confederate whose brother had been killed and his body buried in East 8t. Louts; that Goltz promised the Confederate that on eve Yecoration Day he would decorate a f ieiaseeets rrave if the Confederate would decorate a Federal grave. On Memorial Day Goltz offered all sorts of security, the Gilobe-Democrat said, to get out of jail for only two hours, in order to keep his com- pact, even offering hia wife in his penne, and pledging his “sacred honor as an ©! soldier” to return; that Chief Hauss finally allowed the man to go on his romantic errand, and the Globe-Democrat says: He 4 his wife returned at the appointed hour Sur in the meantime citizens who had hear of the incident came forward and signed the old soldier's bond.”’ SEQUBL TO THE CASE, . Martha, weree arraigned in Justice Driscoll’s court Golz and his wife Past St. Louls Tuesday afternoon, charg the complaint baving been lodged b ciety circles on Sandy Hook. e charges were sustained and Mr. a costs and Will be sent to the Belleville ro John w ] IT WAS A WRETCHED FAK Truth is, the Globe-Democrat’s story is one of the meanest, cheapest, measiiest fakes ever printed in a newspaper. an old story, rehashed at intervals ever since the war, in various sections of the country and absolutely without founda- tion, so far as any one knows, to begin with (It is a epecially ugly fake in this case, where the hero of it is so particularly unworthy of being connected with any- thing romantic or respectable. John Goltz is still locked in the BDast 8t. Louls jail on the charge of vulgarly ex- posing himself, to the shame and annoyance of women on Sandy Hook hill. He is well- known to the police as a chronically trai lesome character. Goltz le & years old and America from Germany, landing in New York City Sept. 13, 1891. He saw military service in his native country only by com- pulson and of course never saw nor knew anything about war or military service in this country. Chief of Police Hauss said: absolutely no foundation for the Globe- Democrat's story,”’ When Goltz read it even he had enough decency to resent it as a mass of misrepresentations. It was a “There was mean, wretched fake, published to the det- riment of old soldiers. in ed with open lewdness and indecent con- y representatives of the upper crust of so- nad Mrs, Goltz were fined $200 each and ck-pile, , A TEARFUL GOING AWAY. oo Parting Reception to the Pastor of Hope Congregational Church. The members of Hope Congregational] Church showed their appreciation of the work of their former pastor, Rev. J. P. O’Brien, and his wife and mother, by giv- ing them a reception Tuesday evening at the church, prior to their departure for Kan- gas City. tev, Mr. O’Brien resigned re- cently to accept a call-from the Southwest Tabernacle at Kansas City, Mo. Almost every Congregational Church in 8t. Louis and vicinity was vepresented by its pastor and a delegation of members, and Hope Chureh, which was beautifully decorated with plants and cut flowers, was crowded. There was a programme of vocal and in- trumental music and addresses. Mr. 8. P. Merriam introduced Rev. Dr. Burnham of im Congregational Church, who paid a high tribute to Rev. Mr. O’Brien as a man and minister. On behalf of the members of Hope Church, Mr. Glenn presented the departing pastor and his wife with a com- lete and handsome dinner set of china. ie address and the response of Mr, O’Brien were eloquent. Other addresses were made v. . M. Jones, Julius C. Birge, J. A. Stanion, Rev. C. I. Kloss and Rev. Mr. hearer, pastor of Grace Presbyterian hurch. oe “KNOCK-ABOUT SUITS.” We know of no sturdier suits for boys.
