LONDON, June 9.—All Europe is startled by the downfall of Ernest Terrah Hooley, the “Magician of Finance.”’” The daring you epeculator, whose operations have emaiiches the world every now and then for the past few years, yesterday went be- fore the Register and asked to be adjudged @ bankrupt. Counsel declared that Mr. Hooley had been “‘victimized to an extent Which will be a revelation to the public.” It is difficult for the people to believe that this curious man has come to the end of his tether. Within less than one year he made $50,000,000 for himself and twice that sum for his friends. So brilliant has been his oa carcer and s0 phenomenal have been 8 stock Jobbing operations that noted Millionaires like Barney Barnato are small fry in comparison. Plain to vulgarity, frank to apparent innocence and osten- tatious only In his aspirations, Hooley has Won the admiration of the masses and the everlasting hatred of the aristocracy. He dined with the Prince of Wales and the royal family at Sandringham, while the nobility and the aristocracy looked on contemptuously; he has tasted the sweets of unprecedented adulation from those who bow before the golden calf: he has seen wealth spring up at his touch, as though he Were king of the masters of the art of darkness, and now,he is wrecked like any ee man, human’ and not tnfallible after Shrewd and wonderful as he has been in his judgment, it is certain that Hooley is the victim of those who have associated with him in his Aladdin-like ventures and Whose fortunes he made. It is already said of him that he was nothing more than a clever showman, and that while he duped the public out of millions, he has himself been the tool of still more clever persons. Hooley was the son of a lace manufs turing family in Nottingham. He névVei knew poverty. At his mother’s death he was left $150,000, and on reaching his ma- rity he became a stock broker in his na- ive city. He has often declared proudly that he never made less than $20,000 a year, Before long the city of London was at his feet. He was its most talked about man. His movements were chronicled like those of royalty. Hooley's first flight of great moment was the promotion of the Dunlop Bicycle Tire Co. in 189%, when he cleared nearly $13,- 000,000 within one or two days. London awoke one morning to learn that the Dun- lop company had been bought by a syn- dicate for $20,000,000. This was wonderful enough as a cash transaction, but the more startling part of it came later when it was known that mecley had bought the company originally Or $10,000,000, and had then sold it for twice that sum to the syndicate that he had himself organized. The supposition was at first that he had duped a batch of extra- ordinary reenhorns, but it was subse- guently and very soon shown that those who had gone into the venture had thereby become greatly enriched. It Was s0 ever afterwards Hooley or- nized many corporations, many of them lcyele concerns, and a)l were signally suc- cessful up to a certain point. ie handed about millions as though they were dollar bill, meanwhile living the Ufe of a Monte Cristo. He drove Humber shares up from 6% to 24%, and made $5,000,000 in the deal. In an incredibly short time he had pocketed $25,000,000 and there is no telling how much money he made for those who had faith in his achemes. Hooley's chief offense against the aristoc- racy wee the manner in which he invested many millions of his mushroom earnings. He puta lot of his wealth into real estate, and beught nothing smaller than ancient English estates. He accumulated no fewer than 60 of these, purchasing them from noblemen in financial atraits. He bought the racing yacht Britannia, formerly the property of the Prince of Wales, and somehow got membership 3 gh pousting clubs.

The commander of the district issued or- ders yesterday to burn Caimanera before yielding it into the hands of the Americans. The latter forced the entrance of the Bay of Guantanamo and, according to the latest advices from Caimanera, it was feared that the Americans would make an effort to lam forces there. Measures to prevent this, if possible, have been taken by the Span- iards. The American fleet was still main- ta ning its position.

The country in which American soldiers will operate behind Santiago is mountainous, well wooded and watered, rather wild, rapt all accounts, not dangerous to health. There are roads which will furf™'sh good marching, if a trifle up and down hill. The City of Santiago is surrounded by the Maestra range of mountains, which separates it from the interior, It is a trifle hot just behind these hills, shut off, as the country is, from the sea, but the heat is not so intense here as it is in other parts ef ‘the island. The Cuba number of the National Geographic Magazine for May says that that the climate of Cuba is much more salubrious than it has been represented. The winters are delightful, and the summer months are more endurable than in most of the territory of the United States. The current impression of bad climatic conditions have grown out of an erroneons confusion of bad sanita-. tion in Havana and other cities with the weather. At [lavana, in July and August, the hottest months, the mean temperaiure is 82 degrees, fluctuating ranges from 58 to 78. between a maximum of 88 and a minimum of 76. In winter the thermometer The air in the warm months is usually charged with 85 per cent of moist- ure. The average humidity in summer at St. Louis is 68. It is the excessive hu- midity in the valleys of Cuba that makes the heat oppressive. The region about Santiago, where the army of invasion will operate, is est. 73. mountainous, cooler and more healthful than at averages 8&0 degrees in summer—the highest pou.t reached ts 84 and the low- Havana. The thermometer The rainy season is from May to October, but the rainfall is no greater than in our Eastern States. The average number of rainy days each year is 102.

In an interview Thursday Nellie said: “T went to the Imperial Cafe, Twenty- details. so, and he locked the door and commenced on me. He beat me brutally, leaving me unconscious in the room, and when I re- covered I called a cab and went to the Dis- eo oY where my eyes were dressed.

Thomas Lannon rushed into the Central Police Station Thursday morning and start- led the desk sergeant with the statement that he had been robbed. by a hypnotist. He said he was a traveling salesman. He met a stranger who put him under a hyp- notic spell and induced him to turn over his purse containing $530. The hypnotist took $200 and handed the remainder back. The police investigated the case and found that Lannon’s tale was one of imagination. He is a stranger in the city and was look- ing for a posi ition as a street car conductor.

Hobson tn sink!ng the Merrimac in the entrance of Santiago harbor did more good service than the bottiing up of Cervera’s fleet. It exposed a job. The Merrimac was bought for aunxtiary service, but proved to be almost worthless, and for this reason was selected as the Vessel to be sunk. But the Merrimac was not a cheap boat. paid for the vessel $242,009. 1t tranepires that the Auxiliary oo Board had rejected the boat, but their Was Overruled at Washington by the influence of a politician with ¥pulland a “special agent’ purchased the ship. A year ago the ship wes seld for $45,000 and it is claimed that the expense of rebullding brought the total to $192,009, The price paid by the Government was $150,000 In excess of the total cost of the ship, and she was only fit to sink. There is no meaner jobbery than that which increases the war burden of the nation and the dangers of soldiers and sallors. Hanging is a respectable fate for eitizens who cheat the Government in time of war and for politicians who help on the swindle. The Government report cost Ee The Real Estate Exchange realizes that huge city debts contracted under the spoils system are not conducive to the exchange of real estate. ——— -—-—-—-@ © @ NO INQUEST NEEDED. France and Qussia are renorted to have exchanged notes concerning the propriety of having a congress of European nations consider the question of the retention of the Philip- pines. \ So we are to have a European concert on the future of the Philippines, We are to hang our disposition of the conquered islands on the decision of Kuropean nations. This is amusing in view of the European concert on the Armenian question and Cretan question. T potentates of ae ee Europe would do well to take long Celiberation before at- tempting an inquest on the United States. It will not be deal- ing with a sick man or a lot of Oriental mendicants. The United States will endeavor to deal justly with all questions of responsibility, but they will deal with them in their own way witholit dictation from Europe. --—_———_-2 o—____ ____ -—___ The first general order to the army of invasion should be: Boil your water anu keep your powder dry. ——% THE SPIRIT OF BROTHERLY LOVE. This war will be the means of drawing us together In a wider Sense than as residents of North and South or survivors of the civil war. An appeal is being made for funds to rescue the home of hero Hobson's mothe: from the grip of a mortgage. That ap- peal Will probably be effective, Other appeals for the families and homes of heroic or dead soldiers and railors will be made. Public sympathy wili receive a great stimulus. When @ man becomes a soldier or a sailor and achieves pub- He recognition in some way it ts perhaps discovered that his family is in want. For the first time in his Ife people he never knew come forward with ald and kind words. Human sympathy of this kind is benutiful ana desirable. The stimulation of the spirit of brotherliness is a compensa- Uon for the hardships of war. Had every State a thoroughly enforced law against the Granting of railroad passes to officials, directly or indirectly, railroad presidents would not now be testifying that it is necessary to bribe judges with free transportation. OOO A SUGGESTIVE CONTRAST. The condition of affairs in Spain gives point to Signor Criap!'s warning that FMurepe was about to be Americanized. In America statesmen study the national welfare and the prosperity of the people. The Government exists not as an end, but as @ nicans. lis object Is to promote the public good, and is heartily supported because in the main it is loyal to the purpose of i's creation. In Spain and most other European countries the national interests are always made to suffer from dynastic considera- tions the claims of privilege. Sometimes they are subor- inated to these. In consequence the moral and material good . @ peo le in checke¢ and dwarfed. | _ betwee the demogratic fastitutions | in’ + oO —a rye ven dous responsibility. With the Julian law and the law against third parallel lines and leasing of existing lines as levers, he may defeat the attempt to sell out the city’s streets to a fran- chise-grabbing ring. The people will look to the Attorney-Gen- eral to do his full duty for their protection. —~ =~ ~~ VERDICT OF THE REAL ESTATE MEN. The leading members of the Real Estate Exchange are con- servative business men of the highest capacity. They have carefully considered the charter amendments from the stand- point of the interests of the owners of real property. Their con- clusion is embodied ‘In the strong resolution condemning the amendments and calling upon citizens to defeat them. No set of men in the city have been more earnest supporters of good street movements than the real estate men, but they realize that too many dangers beset the taxpayers in the offer of good streets through the charter amendments. They recognize that the charter amendments mean the prac- tical surrender of private property into the hands of city officials without check or limit. They see the possibility of a practical confiscation of private real property for the benefit of contractors and spoilsmen. They find many ambiguities in the amendments which will be productive of lawsuits and delays, and which will inure to the benefit of contractors and the injury of property holders. In short, the real estate men, in common with all intelligent and unbiased citizens, see in the charter amendments the con- ferring of unlimited powers of taxation upon a corrupt munici- pal government, which may turn them to a carnival of loot. They want good streets, but not at the highest cast—at the sacrifice of private property for the enrichment of a spoils ring. The terrible death of baby James Neville should arouse the Police Department to the necessity of a strict enforcement of the law against the use of firearms in the city limits. The police power could also be used to prevent the carrying of guns by mere boys, and there should be a law to prohibit the sale of Geadly weapons to minors. All that can be done should be done to stop the cat-rifie slaughters. > i>—Le — —_ By its unanimous vote to accept the gridiron franchise, the Central Traction Co. proved its insincerity in its recent answer to quo warranto proceedings instituted by the State. Of course, as everyone knew, the company intended all along to accept the franchise. The men back of it are not the kind to throw away good money paid out to obtain a valuable franchise. >> i i Notwithstanding Mr. Wanamaker’s 80 eloquent speeches on Pennsylvania corruption, the Quay machine triumphed and nominated its candidate for Governor. The Keystone people are not quite ready for reform, and might not elect Mr. Wana- maker should he consent to be a candidate himself. The surface steam railways in St. Louis ought to be fenced in, so as to save children and adults from mutilation or death. It is bad enough to have life constantly ‘In peril from street cars. The cheapest thing in St. Louis appears to be the lives of the little children. i, i St. Louls taxpayers are not yet insane. For that reason it is fair to presume that they wilil not give the municipal gov- ernment the constitutional right to mortgage their property for $20,000,000 or more for the benefit of spoilsmen and con- tractors. > i “Montojo’s fleet was destroyed In May, and if Cervera’'s meets a similar fate in June, what is slow about the war?’ says a dull morning paper. Why not put the question to the army? It would meet a ready—or rather unready—answer there. —_—_——______-# Rents in St. Louis are now quite as high.as tenants desire them to be. Increased taxation, with doubts as to how the money raised by such taxation would be spent, must neces- sarily advance rents without benefiting either owner or-tenant. ee Om Hoke Smith thinks Spanish should be taught In the public schools. Just now, however, we are teaching Spaniards. If the war expenses leave a surplus in our pockets we may possibly devote some of it to foreign languages. _ oe Clay County, in which the murderous Kentucky feud is now roing on, is Republican by a large majority, and the Governor of the State is Republican. What does Republican government amount toin the Kentucky mountains? - eer Chickamauga is rather a warm spot on which to summer an army.

Copyrighted, 1898, by the Press Publishing Co., | said the Marquis, with the air of plunging | & for me! tis h sete t ap antatlen. “a “But isn't this sudden?” “It may be, but there are ample reasons why such a man as he is should make an instant and deep impression upon me.”’ “But are you sure there’s anything more than a passing fancy in ail thig business?” “Only too sure, papa. I love him!’ “Very good. Rut what proof have you that he reciprocates your passion?” “The best in the world, papa. His eyes and his tongue have alike revealed what he thinks of me.” The Marquis sighed, but !t can hardly be said that he was disappointed. In the meantime the Count and Dan had advanced swimmingly, from the standpoint of the latter. The young American was not only a good talker, as became a college graduate, but he had the rare quality of being an excel- lent listener, »j By the time the Count had aired a few of his pet notions about the insurgents, the Yankee invasien division, the power of the dons and other current topics, Dan had flattered him to such an extent as to win his heart and confidence completely, and been p.aced upon a footing which might have been accorded a long-lost brother. “What do you think of Miss Donos?’ “She's certainly very charming.”’ The interest with which the Count asked the question and watted for the answer could not have failed to fix Dan’s atten- on. “It may not be amiss for me to tell you,” said the Count, twisting his long mustache vigorously, “that Miss Donos is already bound to another!” “I presumed as much,” returned the stlor. “She was telling me that you are a reat deal interested in shipping, especially Oattieshipe, in view of the Impending war w.th the United States, and r venture to ask your advice In regard to a little ty ture in which I am just now interested. In a word, I have brought from Key West a submarine boat of the most wonderful de- scription, with a view to selling it to Spain or to your people,” ; The Count arose ae if moved by spring’, pale, wild of eye and Intensely excited. “I seem to be dreaming,” he said. “What you are saying is such a delightful surprise What is the price of your beat?” The fieures were duly stated. She's mine!” ‘Ant call the Marguts : call] the arqu an the bay as soon as our horses ‘Good! his joyous @6x- cried the hungh- 4 we'll ravine deeply shaded by overhanging pines the trio were met by a couple of men clad in rags and otherwise disguised, who were at once mistaken by the dons for recon- centrados. “Stand aside, there!’’ called the Count, with a gesture that was a menace, as the two men placed themselves in front of the horsemen. ‘‘We have no money for you.” “Now for it!” cried Dan, slipping from his horse and dragging the hunchback to the ground with him as one of the new- comers seized the horse of the Marquis by the bridle. “Surrender! You are our pris- oners!”’ The snarl of rage that came from the hunchback was worthy of a tiger. ‘Treachery!’ escaped him. Out came his revolver as he grappled with his assailant, but he was prevented from using it. In another instant the couple were clinched in a deadly struggle and rolling over and over in the sandy road. In less than a minute the Dons were close prisoners. ‘Curse you, yee ve tricked us!” cried the Count, savagely. “It looks that way, I must confess,” re- turned Dan calmly. “Who are you?’ “I'm Dan Donovan,” “Ah! and these other two?’ “Are Boyd and O' Reilly.”’ “My late prisoners! The thieves who stole my boat!"* ‘At your service, senor,’ returned Dan, with smiling sarcasm. “and my boat, villains?" yelled the hunch- back. “What have you done with my boat?’’ “It is close at hand, as you will soon have . pleasure of see@ing.”’ Taking each of his prisoners by the collar and walking between them, while his chums supported them on the right and left, Dan led the way to the little creek in which the captured submarine boat wus lying. 1I was in vain that the Dons stormed and cursed, raving against the misfortune that had overtaken them. They were stowed away in the hold of the Terror, which took iis way out of the creek into deep water, beneata which it quietly vanished, “Now for a serious word with you,” said lease, Senor.” ays we were your prisoners in that old warehouse in Regla— my comrades and Il, you abused wus shamefully.

CELLS PURCHISE AFTER BUYING HARRY DUKE HE FOUND THAT HORSE WAS UNSOUND. GOLDEN ROD STAKE TO-DAY. Loving Cup arid Found, With Ninety- Eight Pounds Each, Are Quite Naturally the Choices. The Golden Rod stakes, for 8-year-olds, is the racing plece on to-day’s card, The distance is seven furlongs and the horse that crosses the imaginary winning line first earns $1200 for his owner. Six representative thoroughbreds will sport silk this afternoon for the honor of contesting for the stake named for a’ flori- cultural exhibit generally associated with the fall season. The Fair Grounds management have been rushing things generally this year and the Golden Rod has had to fall in line or lose its place as a national emblem in the rac- ing programme, Of the sextet named to start, Loving Cup and Found, with 98 pounds each, are naturally the choices of the cognoscentl. Crocket appears to be their only danger- ous rival. The situation is a etrange one. Three fillies appear to contro] the ownership of a gaze H a month when fillies are notorious- y “9 we “The Harry Duke sale was a turf ro- mance in itself,”’ said an old-timer out at the track this morning. “Dr. Bernays and Col. Cassidy had each made a bluff at buy- ing the crippled but once speedy son of the Duke of Montrose and imp. emorial. Anywhere from $2600 to $3000 was supposed to be the price Bernays or Cassidy was willing to pay. uis Cella came into the game, offered $1500 and was picked up like a trout with a fy. Harry Duke was sent to the Cella stable and Bill Sippy at once pronounced him unsound. ‘Then came the rumpus. Cella, acting on Bippy’s advice, refused to accept Harry Duke. Payne, with Cella’s money in his pocket, declined to take the discredited sprinter back. Now there is no telling what may happen."’ ‘The best evidence of the prosperity and popularity of the Fair Grounds game, eaid another turfman, ‘is the astonishing ease with which the touts and ‘lumbermen’ get in their work. It is quite a liberal ed‘.ca- tion to stand alongside the popcorn man in the betting ring of an afternoon and to watch how the ‘dead sure’ prophets rush their victims egainst ang old 5 -to-1 ehot chalked up on the bookmakers’ blackboards. ‘Watch that duck “oo up his roll,’ ts the signal for action. na jiffy the touts are around the jayhawker, assuring him that ‘Massacre ig out fora killing. Perhaps Chief Campbell will take a day off and give the touts and lumbermen the @ame dose he recently gave the policy sharks.”’ The St. Louls Derby field Is rapidly widen- ing. It now looks as if at least a half dozen horses would go to the post for the rich prize. Horses like Pingree, Fonsovan- nah and Pacemaker, hitherto unconstdered, will ut least add to the spectacle of the race and perhaps cause the winning horse to es- tablish a new record. John FH. Madden, the Prince Fortunatus of the turf, has Plaudit in another soft place to-day. The Latonia Derby will be de- cided this afternoon and only Han 4’Or and Don Quixote will antagonize Madden's dual Derby winner. It looks as if Plaudit had only to raise an exercise gallop to beat the two very ordinary colts opposed to him to- day. From Iatonia, Plaudit’ will go to Washington Park and thence Past, so, de- epite all Mr. Madden's allered poouttocs to the contrary, St. Louisans will have no e “ ortunity of eeeing the best 38-year-old in he West perform:.on the local track. Gene Leigh's string was shipped to De- troit yesterday. J. EB. Cushing will arrive at the track Sat- urday with unburst, Bounding, Harry Shannon, Dva Wilson, Miss Dooley and a half dozen others. Willie Bloss will accompany Cushing and ride for him here. “Skeets’’ Martin came in this morning from Ohicago. He may ride Gibraltar in the Golden Rod The defeat of Lieber Karl by What-er- Lou, dn the Club Members’ Handicap, on Saturday, has set people to wondering whether Lieber Karl and Pleudit are really the horses —y are cracked up to be and as to whether they will class with the East- ern division of crack 3-year-olds like Bowl- ing Brook, The Huguenot, Previous and Siy Fox. laudit has ha ovecy hing his own way in the West thus far, and his owner, John Madden, fancies that he will be as euccessful in the East. The real class of Plaudit, however, will be proven in the Realization, to be run on July 4, the last day of the Sheepshead meet- ing. ‘In that race the will meet Bowlin Brook, The Huguenot and Previous. O the other prominent 3-year-olds Sly Fox has been declared out, and Hamburg, on his race in the Belmont, is not likely to bother anybody. Should Plaudit get home in front in the Realization the 38-year-old honors will be . his Caught on the Fly. How is that? rowns win again. owd got three hits. hiladelphia again to-day.

Manager Tim Hurst of the Browns (de- nies the story that he fined four of his players $50 for keeping late hours. Tim says the man that floated that etory is a “lawyer.” Jesse Tannehi, with his high, arched curve, manages to land more than .500 per cent of. his victories for the Pirates. As a battinig pitcher and all-round player Tannehill is one of the most valuable twirlers in the League, Germany Smith's opportune appearance a Hurst plug up the hole in the in- field. Germany's ba ing and flelding were both the real thing. and went a long way toward defeating the Phillies. “What Rusie is among the right-handers Ten-Thousand-Dollar Breitenstein is among left-handers,” says Tim Hurst. “They are the only two pitchers I know of that will take a chance of pane a curve ball when they are in the hole. With three balls and two strikes most pitchers do nothing but endeavor to put a straight one over. I have seen both Ruste and Breit curve their last one over.” Washington Signs Myers. MILWAUKBEB, Wis., June 9.—President Killilea of the Milwaukee Baseball Club announces that Bert Myers, who played third base for the Milwaukee team last year and who has been kept on Manager Mack's reserve list, has been disposed of to the National League Club of Washington, D.

The best tracks have been those of Paris.

By that day the majority of recruiting officers ‘detailed from the Missouri! regiments here will have reached St. Louts and the scramble for de- Sirable men will begin. If the various gentlemen assigned to the duty carry out present intentions St. Louls Will have ample opportunity to furnish a large batch of recruits. The battery and ist Regiment will fill their ranks and their divisions. The officers from the 24 and bth Will go via St. Louis and each will spend a few days there. There is great rivalry between the 3d, now at Camp Alger, and the Sth. The former is Wholly from Kansas City and that city also contributed largely to the ranks of the 5th. Instructions have been given the officers of the 5th to pay particular attention to Kan- 64s City and a battle royal may be « xpected. Army officers smile at Adjutant-General Bell's reported anxiety to enlist the new men. The orders from the War Department came through the corps commanders and the work of the detailed officers will be done independent*of the State government. There is great dissatiafaction in Missourt ranks over the order intended to fill the iz Vision hospital corps. Under the ruling ar- rangements are left with one surgeon and two stewards, Thirty men from both the 1st and t5h have been drafted, The serious cases will all be treated at the division tent. These details are to be permanent and the men draftd will not be permitted to join their reginents when a movement occurs. It is this that is causing the protests and not a few surgeons have. seriously threatened to resign. The companionship of friends is the only attraction of the volunteer service, and when this is taken away, as in this case, the men believe they have reason to complain. Some see in this establishment of a permanent hospital a long stay at Chickamauga Park. It ia admitted that there is bat little likell- hood of the divisions as they stand now be- ing split up, and there are no indicatiqns that a new division will be needed in Flér- fda shortly. The 2d.Missouri has not con- tributed to Its rivision hospital and the officers believe that this meane they will e00n be moved, The recruiting officers sent West were instructed to use all speed in securing their men and returning to the regiment. The Phitippine® is the expected destination. Division inspection and company and bat- talion drills occupied the ‘Missouri boys’ at- tention to-day. Gen. Wade inspected eGn. Compton's di- vieion of the Third Army Corps this morn- ne. The 5th Missour! belongs to this division. The men were fully uniformed and the im- yression they created was favorable. Col. Milton Moore of the 6th, in temporary command of his brigade, will establieh bri- gade headquarters to-morrow, away from this regiment. The brigade is short one regi- ment, which vacancy will probably be filled the week. Private Dodier, Company L, 6th Regiment, who wae critically ill with pneumonia was pronounced cat of danger this morning. Lieut. Thomas A. O'Keefe, Company I, lat Regiment, was to-day recommended for Major in the Engineering Corps. He is the firet St. Louis man to be so honored by Col. Black. The Ist Regiment received a full supply of shelter tents this morning. Lieutenant-Colonel Demuth of the 2d Is fli to-day. Too much water and exposure to the sun is thought to have caused the indisposition. Col. Cook of the 24 Arkansas is recover- ing from ilinee®s caused by vaccination. He resumed command of his regiment to-day. Pr.vates Chumley and Watts of this regi- ment wlll be tried by Lieutenant-Colonel Cabell In the fleld court as soon as word Is received from headquarters.- There is great disappointment in Cook's regiment over the inability of Gov. Jones to visit chem at this time. The boys Are Ankious to out-do the reception which the Kentuckians in the adjoining camp gave their Governor yesterday. Fifty recruits for the 2d Cavalry and one negro for the 2th Infantry arrived from 8'. Jouls last night, en route to Fort McPher- fon, Oa, Fifteen members of the Red Cross corps from Jefferson Barracks arrived at the park this morning, and were sasigned to duty in Gen, Brooke's and Gen. Wade's army corps. FIGHTING MR. BROWNELL. Receivership of the People’s Railway Again in Court. A sort of dowble attack has been made upon Receiver F. B. Brownell) of the Peo- ple’s Railway, recently appointed by Judge Withiow in place of Mr. Charles Grecn, removed, The case of Rumsey against the People’s Railway was taken to Judge Wood on a change of venue, and now an application has been filled by the road to set aside the receivership, and restore the property to the company on the ground that the origina order was illegally made on an ex parte Statement of facts. Then the other side came into court and filed a second motion, strenuously objecting to the allowafice of $300 a month compensa- ton for services asked by the receiver. In this instance it is the plaintiff who objects, charging that Mr. Brownell should not be paid until he has discharged al! his duties in the case and rendered his final accounting. Both motions have been set down on Judge Woods’ law docket for ergument. St. Louls to Denver. By taking the Missouri Pacific 9:00 a. m. train out of St. Louls, passengers arrive at Denver at 11:20 the next morning, just 2 hours an@ 2 minutes.

The buildings on the property were for a long time occupied by the Essel- bruegge Mercantile Co., which finally bought out five of the heirs for about $13,000. When it came to negotiations with Mrs. Meyer she refused to sell her share and made all sorts of trouble. The Mercantile company filed a partition suit in court, which came up before Judge Spencer. He was informed that Mrs. Meyer Was erratic in her business affairs, so he laid the case over and suggested that an inquiry be made into her mental state before anything further was done in the suit.

Marriage at Jefferson City of Miss An- ne Ewing and George W. Hobbs— Miss Swan to Mr. Porteous.

Swan of Kirk- quietly married Wednesday ter of Mr. and Mrs. J. wood, was evening to Mr. James P. Porteous of the Same town, Rev. Dr. the ceremony at his home, on Washington avenue. Although the engagement had not been formally announced, it was generally known among their friends that the two have been betrothed for several years. The wedding would perhaps have taken place some time ago had it not been that the bride's fam- ily and more particularly her father was anxious that she should make a great the- atrical success and become one of the lead- ing actresses of the day. A little more than three years ago she made her debut in “The Honeymoon,” pre- at , f tay 1} ; j 4 \ ; e ( - } > ON — Spy “Vol Wh ~/ _ Pe Y /, 2g Lo > * sented at the Grand Opera House under the direction of the late John W. Norton, of whom Miss Swan was a pupil. Miss Edith Trotter Smith of Kirkwood made her initial bow to the theatrical world at the fame time. Both young ladies subsequently oo up all ideas of «a professional career. ise Swan, after traveling with success for two years with James O'Neil, severed her connection with his company last fall and bas not returned to the stage since. While there was no direct opposition to her marriage with Mr. Porteous, nor any- thing but a feeling of the greatest friend- ship for the young man, the bride's family much preferred that Miss Swan renounce a Social caréer and set herself diligently to making a name in the annals of dramatic BUCCE SSeS, - The only witnesses of the wedding, be- side Dr. Niccolls, were Miss Swan's sister, Miss Elizabeth Swan, Mr. Porteous’ sister and several members of Dr. Niccolls’ household, Mr. Porteous and his bride have gone to Denver on their wedding journey.

HUDSPETH ON TRIAL. _-—--— = -- Notable Jury Has Been Secured in the Jackson County Murder Case. KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 9.—In the Criminal Court yesterday began the trial of J. Lamartine Hudspeth ror the murder of J. W. Kessner; station agent of the Missouri Pacific at Lake City, this county, on May 14, 1897. This case has attracted widespread attention because of the prot- inence of the parties. Hudepeth is one of the wealthiest farmers in the county, and has been prominent in Democratic circles. The shooting was the result of a quarrel over Hudspeth’s niece, to whom, It Is al- leged, Kessner, who was a married man, was paying too much aitention. The jury — contains Jesse James, Jr., son of the ate outlaw, Jesse James; iijah Gates, eon of ex-State Treasurer lijah Gates; Ben Neutwig, divorced oe of Alice Nielsén, prima donna of “the Bostonians’”’ opera company, and Charles Wilse, a nerro Darber. The trial will last at least one *"preek, as O'Keefe, the senior officer of his rank in the line. ae continues chief ex- fears are entertained,’’ tant, “that Missouri's They are not slapped-togetker suits, tion to appoint some one whose talents He in political lines rather than military sci- ence, “He who accepts such an appolntment will be doubly unfortunate, for soldiers are quick to note incompetency in their officers, and his fellow officers may not extend to him the hand of cordiality.’ Lieut. Webster’s letter was written prior to the arrival of young Giboney Houck in the camp of the Ist Regiment. Giboney’s reveption was exactly in ac- cordanc e with the prophecy of Lieut. Web- ele! It was even more than a “chilly deal.” The regimental] officers wpuld not allow Houck to remain with the command. His commission from Gov. Stephens did not help him any more than a laundry ticket would. Lieut, Webster states that an appeal to the War Department may be made by the regimental officers. When this appeal is made and the question of battalion adju- tants examined into it will be found that His Excellency, Lon V. Stephens, Governor of the great State of Missouri, has created 15 jobs in the Missouri troops, paying $1600 per annum each, which have no existence in law. A pretty etate of affairs exists now with regard to these same Battalion Adjutants and some authority will have to pass upon the legality of their offices when the pay- master reaches camp. The Battalion Adjutantse were legally mustered in, but the oath was administered by the War Dep artment through its muster- ing officer, under a misapprehension. The dainty youths who were to have these military positions with the poy of a First IAetitenant and nothing to do, will not be taken into the regiments. The supreme au- thority at Waehington will be invoked to show Stephens the density of his ignorance ecutive will not be able to resist the tempta- Parasols and Umbrellas.
