TION OF TROOPS AT TAMPA. S lis ) INVADING: ARMY. With a Force of Regulars He Will. Join Gar- cia Near Santiago. _ ‘ Special to the Post-Dispatch. | WASHINGTON, June 3.—Gen. Shafter, with nineteen full regiments of infan- try, seven troops of cavalry and twelve companies of field artillery, will leave for Santiago de Cuba before Saturday night. All these soldiers are to be drawn from the rexular army. The transports will land the invaders at the most available harbor east of San- tiago, probably at Berraso Point, twenty miles away, near which is a good harbor which has a breakwater and is the shipping point for iron mines. From here the invading army will march to the rear of Santiago and invest it while Sampson and Schley command the harbor. Gen. Miles will lead the expedition to Porto Rico. As soon as the army under Gen. Shafter has sailed Gen. Miles will embark his troops, and it is expected tha? he will be able to start for San Juan within a week. By the time Gen. Shafter has landed near Santiago, Gen. Miles will be well on his way to San Juan. Gen. Miles’ forces will be made up of the most serviceable. volunteer regiments. These have not yet been decided on. The regular troops designated for service under Gen. Shaftter are: The 2d and 5th Cavalry and the 3d, 11th, 19th and 20th Infantry, now at Mobile; the Ist, 3d, 6th, 9th and 10th Cavalry, the Ist, 2d, 4th, 6th; 8th, 9th, 19th; 12th, 13th; 16th. 17th, 2lst, 22d, 24th and 25th Infantry; Batteries E and K, Ist Artillery, at ’ mpa. am large number of volunteers have been concentrated at Tampa, Mobile and Jacksonville. They will be drawn on by Gen. Miles for the army which will occupy Porto Rico. Upon arriving in the vicinity of Santiago the large fleet now off the southern shore of Cuba can effect a landing for thé military forces and protect them until they can get a foothold and join forces with the insurgents. Commodore Schley has communicated with the insurgents, informing them of the itntmediate coming of an American army. They will be at the landing place in such as Gen. Garcia can command. The President is confident that the united naval'and military movement cannot fail.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, June 4.—A report was received at the War Department to-day from Gen. Miles, gi ving the informa- tion that the first division of the invading army, composed of regulars, has,embarked at Tampa and Mobile for the Santiago expedition. Sampson wil? join them. Thé transport ships are being assembled at Key West, where the warships designated as convoys by Admiral Gen. Miles is well picased with the condition of the regulars who make up the army that will operate in Southeastern Cuba. They are fully equipped and provisioned, and are in excellent condition physically. they aie acclimated and fitted for service in Cuba. The developments of the next 24 hours at Santiago may cause atemporary halt in the expedition. They have been in Southern camps until But even if the naval forces now off the harbor dispose of Cervera’s flect and drive the Spanish forces from Santiago, there is still need of troops in the Province of Santiago de Cuba to completely drive the Spanish forces from that section of the island and make it an ‘American stronghold.

Other orders issued to-day include the assignment of the balloon stction of the Signal Corps to the 5th Army Corps, under Gen.

Dr. Chancellor hustled around and found that a cremation permit had Complaints from the ist Regiment that the men are underfed are highly amusing to the regular army officers in St. Louis.

Lieutenant-Colonel Cavender’s arrest by Gen. Fred Grant at Chickamauga is a uni- versal subject of conversation in St. Louis among those who are interested in the Ist Regiment. A great deal of mystery surrounds the arrest, as neither Gen. Grant nor Lieuten- ant-Golonel Cavender will discuss it. The cause seems to have been the tardi- ness of the Ist in joining the review of the first division of the 3d Army Corps. Col. Batdorf was acting in command of the brigade, and Lieutenant-Colonel Cav- ender commanded the ist. His command joined the review between 10 and WB min- utes late. Gen. Gra spoke sharp words of reprimand and ‘Lieutenant-Colonel Cav- ender replied to them. He was ordered un- der arrest. One reason given for the tardiness of the Ist is that the regimental colors were for- gotten, and a detail had to be sent back for them. This is denied by Cavender. ether reason given is that a battalion, got lost and had to be waited for. was prob- An- ods of feedin a doctor and should be called upon sud- denly to cut off a man's leg, you would probably get the leg off, but the man would die. That’s the condition of most of these volunteer officers. Rations are issued to ali troops alike.. The ist could not be dis- criminated against if such a thing were tried ever so hard. The. trouble lies in the failure of officers to prop- erly oversee. the work of the cook who don’t know how to divide ten days rations so the tirely with Capt. Duva “T have fed men,” he said, “and I know what close figuring is required. The cooks should know their business thoroughly the captains should oversee their work, to to the end that they do not use up their al- lowances too rapidly. The ist Regiment re- ceives the same allowance that is issued to every other regiment, and if its men are ucertee they can blame only their own of- cera.”" — Complaintea have been made almost con- stantly by the men of the Ist Regiment and it has been stated recently that they were really hungry most of the time. ' The man who seems to be maki more money out of the war than any other in- dividual is Dr. McClossen, who examines the candidates for enlistment> a dollar for each man he passes. About 200 men were passed and recruited by all the offices in St. Louls and Dr. McClos4sen received that number of dollars as his in- come for that month. He examines the applicants at the recruitin stations in charge of Capt. Sweet, Maj. Fuller, Capt. Johnson and Lieut. Eames. All of these officers have been bending every energy toward rapid enlistment, and this has re- sulted to Dr. McClossen’s advantage. He was a retired hospital steward when he received the appointment as Medical Ex- aminer. Although Capt. Johnson of the 16th In- fantry has displayed a tempting advertise- ment offering a free excursion to Cuba or Porto Rico to all who will enlist in his reginent, and the inference might be drawn that recruits were becoming scarce, the recruiting officers say they see little difference. Capt. Sweet’s office is not rushed quite so hard as it has been in the past, but all the other offices report no fall- ing off. It is natural that Capt. Sweet's Office should show the decrease first, cause of the comifig of new recruiting of-. ficers, notably Lieut. Eames, who is taking men for the 19th Infantry. Lieut. Eames, by the way, is casting longing eyes on the He receives f TICKETS GOOD GOING JULY 3, 4,5 AND 6, their men. If you were not P. done -more for me than any‘one Mrs. M. E. Seymour.

The island already shows the effect of the beginning of this season. Showers oc- cur daily and soft, white rain mists are seen on the slopas every morning.

These tropical storms at night are wonderful exhihitions and electrical pyro- technica. At times the lightning flashes on the horizon line look like the regular firing of guns from a distant fort. Again, the entire heavens seem aflame in vivid glare and forked tongues of fire appear to run down the mountain slopes.

The garden has donned its Sunday clothes and the plants are on their best behavior. The gardeners have worked faithfully and intelligently and St. Louis’ favorite beauty spot was never handsomer. There are only two Sundays in the year when the public can visit this veritable Eden, and to-mor- row is one of these days. The next “open Sunday” will be the first Sunday in Sep- tember. As one enters the main gate on Tower Grove avenue—and this will be the only place of ingress to-morrow—the landscape appears superb. There are beds of the choicest flowering plants, arranged in the most artistic manner, bunches of shrubbery here and choice floweriag trees there. in the center of the garden are the aquatic plants and beyond are more flowers and shrubs. Still beyond is the arborium, form- ing a glorious background. The beauty does not weary the'eye. It is restful-and pleasing. An effort was made by Head Gardener Gurney to produce a harmonious effect and he hag succeeded. The lawns at Shaw's Garden have ever been noted. This season they have surpassed themselves. The turf ‘ie as thick as a carpet and it has been cut until it would be difficult to find one spear standing above its neighbor. One of the most interesting exhibita may be seen just north of the entrance. It is a collectfon of agave, or century plants, and it is claimed that in no other spot in the world can #0 comprehensive a collection be found. Every known species is there and three of thenr nave sent up their bloom- ing stalks. The ‘coatery plant in blooming sacrifices its life, and three of these rare plants are doomed.

Now that Secretary of War Alger has dined with the Farmers’ Club, we may expect to see the enemy mowed down.

They should have nipped reciprocity with France while it was budding. If Wall street has furnished a 200-pound flag to float over Ha- vana the street may be preparing to claim the island for itself. Capt. Sweet added 600 soldiers to the service during May. As an enlisting officer he must be giving the men taffy to obtain so many. Spanish ohatter about the violation of the laws of civilized war- fare by the United States is amusing. Spain, at least, has for- gotten the Maine. The Hindoos and Mohammedans are religiously knifing each other in the Punjab. The jabbers doubtless al] expect to reach Paradise in this way.

The piece systeen lifts labor instantly to a plane where the motive of self-interest conspicuously enters. A man is insured from the first of at least the wage of day's labor: his own Industry and deftness are then the factors in determining his earn- ings up to a certain limit. For I soon found that a hand was not free to employ his ut- most skill when he becarge an expert. There seemed to be a, tacit agreement in each department of the factory as to what should constitute the maximum of day's inabor. Below that a man might fall if he chose, but beyond it he was not at liberty to go. And the reason was very obvious, Even a few men in continually passing, by anz considerable margin, the accepted da‘ly average would inevitably produce the result of a cut in the pro rata price until wages were down again to the accustomed level. The system gives a man an incentive to work and to develop his skill. but, in its practical operation, it holds him rigor- ously to the level of mediocre attainment HORRIBLE DEPRAVITY.

Colorado and Pennsylvania Troops Are Ordered Aboard Ship Next Tuesday and May Be Joined by Regular Infantry. ' SAN FRANCISCO, June 3.—The Chronicle this morning says: After taps had been sounded at Camp Merritt last night, Major-General Otis isued an order directing the Ist Colorado and the 0th Pennsylvania volunteers to embark on trausports for the Philippines next Tuesdays The news reached the encampment about midnight and was received with manifestations of the greatest delight by the men chosen for the second Manila expedition. 4 The Colorado regiment is 1008 strong and there are 640 men from the Keystone § ete, The order of Gen. Otis read simpty that the Colonels of the regiments should take their commands on board ship Tuesday, with 400 rounds of ammunition to each man and six monthe’ rations. More definite instructions will be published within a day or so. No statement was made of when the ship would leave the harbor. It is not expected, however, that the transports will sail before Thursday. It Is stated that the Zealandia will be ready by this evening, but the China and the Colon will not be in condition to receive the men for several days, and then stores will have to be taken on board. These ships are able to carry more troops than are in the regiments named, and there is a strong probability that the 23d Regiment of United States regulars will form a part of the expeditionary force. Both the Pennsylvania and Colorado regiments are excellently drilled and equipped organizations. Col, Hawkins of Pennsylvania and Col. Hale of Colorado are experi- enced soldiers. Hale graduated\at West Point with the highest honors ever known at that institution, and Hawkins is a veteran of the civil war. Both regiments are to be inspected to-day. Supplies for the Manila flotilla are being bought in immense quantities, and the stocks of some merchants here have been exhausted. Gen. Merritt is using every ef- fort to collect reliable information regarding the Philippines as a scene of military operations. Data of every kind 1s being collected and books and maps are purchased daily. A bureau of military information has been established at headquarters and placed in charge of Maj. J. F.

On July 11, 1882, a British fleet of eight battleships ‘and cruisers,. five gunboats and one dispatch boat bombarded the fortifications of Alexandria. The fleet was vastly inferior to the fleets of Sampson and Schley. The fortifications were equal if not superior to the fortifications of Havana. In a single day the fortifications were ruined, the guns were silenced, the gunners were killed by the hundred, wounded by the thousand. The British loss was six killed and 27 wounded, and not a ship was totally disabled. Il.—MEXICO. In 1847 Gen. Scott landed at Vera Cruz with about 10,000 men.

The city was strongly situated, strongly fortified and defended by an army in better condition than Blanco’s army is to-day. Gen.

If they have been improved and strengthened, our artillery has also been brought up to a higher plane of excellence.

WASHINGTON, June 4.—In answer to in- quiries from United States Ministers abr oad the State Department has secured from the Navy Department and published a stite- ment of the conditions governing naval en- listments. In brief, these are that during war no one can be recruited in a foreign country, that aliens who have declared (heir intention of becoming United States citi- zens and in exceptional cases those who have not, are enlisted provided they under- stand the English language. There is no fund for paying traveling expenses before enlistments are made. If aliens are enlisted they are cligible to any position for which they can qualify, but the customs and regu- lations of the service have been that only men of long and continued service receive the highest ratings, and not even a citizen of the United States residing abroad can enlist In time of war without coming te the United States unless neutrailty laws ere violated.

The interests of the city of St. Louls and 314 CHESTNUT STREET. of Hawali seem to have become etrangely intermingled of late. Congressmen Pearce and Joy announce, without cracking a smile, that as deputy residents they cannot appoint a postmaster or St. Louls until the Hawaiian annexation question is settled. The local politicians are puzzled over it. Several of them are apprehensive that with Hawaii as a territdry of the United States there may be in that country some forgotten Republican who wants to come back and postmaster. And the worst of it is_ the don't know whether he is. .white or colored. He may be either or neither or both, ac- cording to the length of time he/fhas lived in Hawaii, Worse atill, they are not permitted to know whether this Hawaiian was an origi- nal Filleyite who was banished to the Sand- wich Islands for disloyalty to the old man. or whether he has just come into promi- nence and smartly decided to be a Ker- ensite. Col. Kerens, you know, owns nearly all the harbor around Los Angeles and San Diego. It is but a big jump of severai thous- and miles to Hawati, and the connection is direct. Who knows? And it is this dread- ful uncertainty that is paralyzing the local politicians and making them sore and ugly. BREAST BONE FRACTURED. William Englebert’s Remarkable Fall From a Porch. This year’s St. Louis Browns are game. TELEPHONE: MAIN 279 M. No matter what else can be said about the players Tim Hurst !s piloting through the country, one thing must be admitted and that is that they are game to the core. In Washington, crippled and lame, they were made a football of by the Washington team, Yesterday they came away in the stretch and took a game from the crack Baltl- mores, perhaps the best team in America to-day. The surprise yesterday was not only the capture of the game, but the wonderful work of Hall, who helped put out the lives of eight men. He also ass:sted in a double play. The Browns took the game, too, by the close score of 5 to 4 and scored the win- ning run in the ninth inning. At that junc- ture Clements started off with a double bagger and the rest of the boys pushed him along home with the run that won the game. Best awrings at lowest prices; latest styles.

He dropped face forward, and as he was nearing, the yard he threw up his head, forcing his breast against the ground. The shock was terrific. The bone cracked fas though it were an egg shell. The man arose unaided, but when he reached the house he could scarcely speak above a whisper. A physician was summoned and an exam- ination revealed a fracture of the eternum. The physician pronounced the accident not serious, but remarkable. He said compara- tiveiy few cases of breast bone fracture were recorded. “That peculiar mishap,’ said Englehart, Relieves Kidney & Bladder troubles at once. for sale every where, or sent post-paid on receipt of price, F.

The ame Was started with Utley, one of the mpires’ extra players. The Maroons ob- jected, and then Jake Rene, a brother of the manager of the Empires, went and umpired in such a way that the Maroons are now calling him all sorts of lovely names, The score was 6 to 5 in favor of the Empires, but the Maroons say tt would have been 6 to 5 in their favor with any one else umpiring. At the con- clusion of the game the Maroons offered to play the Empires a game for $50 a side wit Insella or Hunt as umpire.

This can never be done when the liver does not act it's part. Doyou know this?

A man jumped on the platform and an- nounced that t dynamo was out of order and would be’repaired in a short time. The electric lights under the gallery were burn- ing and shed a dim light in the amphi- theater. The crowd waited patiently until, nearly 10 O'clock, when “Paddy’’ Carroll an- nounced that there had been a job put up on Davie: and the fight wouid be post- poned until Friday night. There was a de- mand for the refunding of the money. The “Parson’’ remained firm, however, and gave return checks. His press agent asserted that some evil-minded person had stolen the reserve dynamo. It was also explained that the switch which seneny connects the building electric plant with the Edfson Company had been removed temporarily. The attendance was small and the expense of bringing the 10 fighters together was large. The greatest amount of kicking came from the people who had $2 seats. They were given return checks for $1 seats and fared the same as the cheaper patrons. The Gans-Roberson battle was the first on a programme of five bouts. So far as it went Gans had al! the best of it. He had scored one knock- down and had Roberson going. Last night, as per promise, Davies pulled off hie tournament without the lights going out. Billy Stift then secured the decision over ‘“‘Myeterious Billy’’ Smith, on a foul. The fighting Was good all through the eight rounds. In the fifth Stift was knocked al- most senseless by a punch in the jaw. A foul also ended the bout between “Kid” MePartiand, of New York, and Tom Tracy. of St. Louis. The contest between the Kid and Tracy developed into little more than a rough-and-tumble fight of a very violent sort. In the firet round nothing sensational developed, but in the second the men started in to annihilate each other. They fell to the floor four times in a tight embrace, and Referee Masterson then gave the battle to McPartiand on a foul. Joe Gans, of Baltimore, secured the decis- ion over Kid Robertson, of Buffalo, tn six rounds. Charile Strong and Frank Childe fought «ix rounds toa eae, and Jack Mof- fat defeated Jim Janey in six rounds.

There is a story out of Buffalo to the effect that Cham- herlain will soon spread out as a dealer in jabs, swings, upper-cuts and side-steps. There are no real followers of the game in St. Louis, but that}remember Tip O'Neill, the greatest batsman that ever played on the St. Louis Browns. But for a sarcastic remark made by an acquaintanee O'Neill, one of the greatest batters that ever played ball, would have buried himself in the wilds of Canada after a first and unsuccessful season as a pitcher. Tip’s father was proprietor of a hotel, at Woodstock, Ont., which was favored par- ticularly by the upper class of apecsseness. One summer a college man drifted into the place, seeking recreation. During leisure moments he and Tip used to occupy the time by passing ball. He showed Tip how to hold the ball to throw the various curves. The young fellow proved to be an apt pupil and soon developed some good curves and con- siderable speed. He was very ambitious and yrracticed at every opportunity. The fol- lowing winter he invited Hugh Brown, then the Toronto Interna- tional league team, to apend the winter with him. Brown accepted the invitation. Adjoining the hotel was a large building used for amusement purposes in the summer and closed up in the winter to use for dances. Every day during the winter O'Neill itched to Brown, who gave the boy the enefit of his experience. The following spring O'Neill went to New York and signed with the old Metropoli- tans of the American Association, He was a success from the start, but they over- worked him, and his arm would not stand the strain. At the end of the season the Mets released him. He went back home and stayed all winter. During that time friends good naturedly guyed him. A few days prior to the opening of the following season one of O'Nelll’s acquaintances start- ed to YF him in the presence of a num- per of friends. In the “joshing’’ the fellow dubbed O'Neill a “has been.”” This stung O'Neill and he determined to show that it was not so. - A day or.two later he was missing from home. He told no one of his plans before leaving; even his father was ignorant of his whereabouts. The young fellow realized that his pitching days were over, but he was not daunted. e had i slight promise the season before of developing into a batter. Coming to St.. Louls,. he hunted up Comiskey and told him‘ he wanted a trial in the fleld. As itt hap- pened the Browns were in need of a flelder at that time, and O'Nelll was given a chance to show what he could do The result is well known to every follower of the gasne. He started to hit the first time at the bat and there seemed to be no end to his capabilities. For many years he'was a terror to American Asso- clation pitchers, and the one who suc- ceeded in striking him out was envied by his colleagues in the box. For five years O'Neill hit far and above the other players of the Association, and that at a time when Comiskey.. Bushong, Curt Welch. Dave Orr, Harry Stovey, Ted La kin and others were in their batting at a fast clip. O'Neill continue to lead the Association tn hitting the star catcher of club. who could pitch a game of baseball “undoubtedly saved my life.

CHICAGO, June 4.—The encouragement from Liverpool to- day was not quite up to expectations, and wheat started a fraction lower. his weak feeling was made more marked by favorable crop reports. Later reports, however, complained of chinch bugs and rust in the South and Southwest, and the sentiment turned bullish. There was a report current that rust had appeared in wheat in many parts of Hungary. Chicago arrivals were 35 cars, against 21 for the same week last year. Minneapolis and Duluth received 164 cars, ‘against 840 for the corresponding week the year hefore Jnly opened’ tec lower at 98%@04c, sold up to P4t,c, fell off to HBlgc, then firmed up to D44yc.

The defendants.are Mary Kessler, a daugh- ter, and Max Kessler, her husband. The defendants are in possession of the prop- erty and have been ever since before the old man's death. The filing of this suit adds a new chapter to an interesting story. One suit on the Same line was tried and decided in favor of the defendants in November, 1894. It was carried to the Supreme Court and the de- cision there affirmed. The sult then was to set aside the will of Moeller on the ground that his mind was unsound when he made a will in favor of his daughter, Margaret egner, to the exclusion of his other chil- dren. ce Though the plaintiffs were euccessful and the will was set aside by the courts, the Kesslers retained possession of the property by virtue of a deed executed by Moeller itn favor of his daughter, (Mrs. Kessler. The story of the two lawsu!ts involves incidentally, a murder for which a term in the penitentiary was the result, a pension raga of 16 years duration, and a jail sen- ence, Casper Moeller was 81 years old when he died in August, 1891.

He married Mrs, Tekla Cla ,, a widow, who was drawing a pension of §8 per month. She had been drawing the pension for three years before she was married. After her marriage to Moeller she kept right on drawing her pension regularly as Mrs. Tekla Clay. This continued until December, 1886, when ehe failed to appear for her voucher. The pension examiner investi- gated and found that for 16 years she had been drawing a pension fraudulently. She had died, which was the reason for her non-appearance and the discovery of the fraud. There were several indictments resulting from the investigation. Old man Moeller was tried, convicted and sentenced to pay a fine of $1000.

JULIA N, MAJOR, BY GRACE OF LON V. STEPAENS —— = The Governor’s Attempted Capture of a Po- litical Enemy by Giving Him a Military Title. Henry 8. Julian, who was removed from the office of Chief of Police of Kansas City as the result of an investigation by a com- mittee of the State Legislature, is at the Planters’ Hotel. Mr. Julian is en route to Chickamauga to Su EE fet aside on the ground that ‘Moeller's mind | join the 6th Missouri Volunteers as a Ma- jor. He is the latest political patriot to re- celve a commission from Gov. Stephens. Hig commission as Major is understood to be a stepping stone to a Colonelcy in one under the of the regiments to be formed second call. Julian's military experience consists of two years’ service as a militia captain in the early -’80s. But he is a powerful politician in Kansas ity: a man with “‘de push” at his back. He made a vigorous political fight to be elected Major of the 5th when that regiment started for the front, but the line officers would not have him. Now Gov. Stephens, “reposing special trust in the loyalty and ability of Henry S. Julian,”’ has appointed him to a com- mand above these same officers. It is the undoubted prerogative of the company officers to elegt their field officers when vacancies occur, but in the case of the 5th Regiment this right has been usurped to pay a political debt. Maj. Julian had no letters from com- manding generals in his pocket when he sought a military honor denied him by suf- frage, but he had several Kansas City wards in their stead. He wae a colossal failure as a chief of Kansas City’s 250 police, but Gov. Stephens thinks he will make a grand success in i'command of 450 soldiers. A warm reception awaits Maj. Julian at | Chickamauga. After the ith was mus- tered in at Jefferson Barracks Col. Moore made the officers and men the following he Keasslers brought out the deed and | continued in possession of the property. The object now is to have the deed pro- nounced illegal by the courts. Mr. Zie- hold contends that the transfer was not a | bona fide transaction.

Therefore, any man in the regiment who works faithfully and makes of himeelf a good soldier may look for promotion, and there is no reason why some of you may not wear shoulder straps when. you return. All men are equal in this regiment, and all will be treated alike. When the news of Julian's npeceaemens reached the 6th, the 12 captains inquired of each other and of their supenror officers— how now about promotion? To have been slighted in this regard would have been bad enough in itself; to have appointed over them a man whom they had repudiated is humillating. Julian is about 86 years old. He is a law- yer and has served two terms in the Mis- soun Legislature, lie was born In Kentucky and received his early education at an academy near Frankfort, On leaving school, youn Jullan had dreams of giory on the field of battle and thought seriously of entering the regular army, but a visit to several forts and bar- racks caused him to change his mind.

In December, 1896, he was appointed Chief of Police in Kansas City. The appointment aroused a storm of protests, and from the time he accepted. office Julian was in hot water. He had had less experience in such mat- ters than he can now muster on military affairs, Chief of Police, Julian had the workmen of a telephone company, who were digging up the streets to lay under round wires, arrested in an attempt to enforce the pro- Visions of his franchise law. Julian alleged that he had the consent of Gov. stephens to make a test of the case, and the Governor had promised State funds to prosecute. But alter the arrests had been made the Governor “laid down,” or at least he decided to take no active part in the matter. in the hole. After Julian was thug left having shaken Kansas City from ste m to vee y his radical action ce was forced to ac aqaown. The Major’s commission is looked upon in Kansas City as ina measure, salve for the wound caueed by the Governor's deser- tion of Julian at that time. By all the rules of politics Stephens and Julian should have been enemies; for the Governor brought about the downfall of the unease City man when he was Chief of o1ice, Julian had been appointed chief by Com- missioners Fyke and Johnson, ex-Gov Stone's appointees, and Gov. Stephens was anxious to secure their removal so that he could appoint their Successors. Charges were made against them and Senatorial and House committees investigated them These investigations would not have been held had Gov. Stephens o posed them, so that they were inspired yy him to that extent. Fyke and Johnson were removed and Julian fell with them. Gov. Stephens appointed new commissioners who ap- pointed a new chief. ’ At the time Julian -was full of wrath @gainst the Governor and everybody con- nected with the administration.

Her skirts were switched close to the flame by her move- ment and they caught fire. Mrs. Meinhardt detected the fire at once and lost her head completely. She ran u the short flight of steps to the rear yard, shrieking for help. A fresh breeze was blowing off the river and it fanned the flames until they fairly roared about her in a column of fire. iMrs. Freda Jones was standing on her rear porch at 8018 Vulcan street and heard Mrs. Meinhardt’s screams. Snatching up a table cloth she ran to the burning woman's assistance. The table cloth was quickly wrapped about Mrs. Meinhardt.
