The horsea. fully upon the running board and side of the* car, were almost inside, while Schultz, crowded from the west to the east side of the car, was temporarily pinned to the seat. The strain on the pole snapped it at the bolt. The horses were guided to one side of the car and the terrible danger was over. The truck, preceded by reel No. 1, came from McNair avenue and Victor street. Turning into Sidney a decided incline was struck at Ninth street, and while going at ! a good rate Driver Williamson kept his! team under contro], The cable train, cars 70 and 170, checked up at the north side of Sidney to let the reel pass in front. Gripman T. J. Barton jammed his lever down in an effort to wet across ahead of the truck. It was im- possible and the collision followed. Con- ductor W. R. Carver was on the rear plat- form of the trailer and well out of reach of the pole and rearing horses. The moment Barton saw the pole strike the side of the trailer he threw off the rope and prevented a _ sidewise motiun which might have swept the trailer clear of every occupant.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 29.—The speed y steamer Newport, bearing Major-General Wesley Merritt, Military Governor of the P hillppine Islands, and his staff, besides the Astor Light Battery and Companies H and K of the 3d United States Artillery and detachments from the hospital and signal corps, is now on its way to Manila. As the vessel gradually drew away from her dock this morning the blowing of many whistles told.the people on shore that Gen. Merritt had taken his departure. jJreat crowds had gathered to witness the departure of the vessel and many fash- ionable equipages on the dock told of the presence of representatives of the 400, who had come to bid farewell to friends among the members of the Astor battery. Many tugboats and yachts chartered for the occasion accompanied the Newport down the bay and out through the Golden Gate to the Pacific, where the last farewells were “waved to the departing military men gathered on the deck of the steamer. The Newport will make an effort to overtake the third fleet of transports, which sailed Monday, after the fleet reaches Honolulu, where the vessels will coal and take on fresh supplies before proceeding to Manila. Gen. Merritt is very anxious to avoid an encounter with any vessel of the Spanish navy, and will issue orders to the fleet at Honolulu to make all possible speed to the islands. It is probable that the Newport will not wait for the other vessels of the fl eet at Honolulu, but will proceed with as little delay as possible to Manila, CHINA AWAITS NEWS OF MANILA’S FALL Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 1898. HONK KONG, China, June 29.—For some unknown reason the steamer Wua- ton. which, it was reported, Consul General Wildman was to send to Manila yes- terday morning ip news that the Spanish fleet was at Port Said, lay, steam up. in the harbor until 7 p. m. Police boats and Spanish spies swarmed about her, but, strangely enough, she was not detained by the Government. May & when Wildman proposed to send a steamer to Manila to get news ef Dewey, the only way he could get the consent of the Governor to clear his steamer was on the ground that he wanted to look for the McCulloch, which he beBeved was wrecked. It is suspected here that, apart from Wildman’s popularity, the Government is more lenient on account of Germany's attitude. News of the occupation of Manila is expected this evening. America can depend on prompt action from Dewey every time. He should be in Cuba. E. W. HARDEN, Special Correspondent Post-Dispatch. LOOK FOR FIGHTING AT MANILA. MADRID. June 29.—Further advices from Manila say the Spaniards have deter- mined to fight to the dedth and that desperate fighting is expected when the Ameri- can troops arrive. Manila advices say it is supposed the German warships will prevent the bom- bardment of Manila, and it is alleged that Prince Henry of Prussia is expected there.

The Supply Depot Will Be Open Thursday From 8 in the Morning Till 8 at Night and on Friday Till Noon. ~ =a In order to take care of the rush of contributions that it is now known will come Cin Thursday, the Post-Dispatch receiving depot—room 25, old City Hall—will be kept open that day until 8 o’clock in the evening, and contributions will be received up to that time. The many inquiries and profhises to bring in contributions on Thursday in- dicate that that will be one of the heaviest days. Keeping open until 8 o'clock will also lighten the rush Friday, when the depot will close at noon. If the rush of contributions to the Post-Dispatch soldiers’ supply car continues as great during Thursday and up to noon Friday as it was Tuesday and Wednesday, as it surely will, two cars may be necessary for the transportation of the supplies. Tuesday's contributions were very heavy. considering that it was the first day. Contributors should not make the mistake of waiting until the last day (Friday) to bring in their boxes. There will be only four hours—from 8 to 12 noon—during which contributions can be received on that day, and a heavy rush might mean that some of the contribu- tions would have to be left behind It is important. therefore, that contributions, whether perishable or non-perish- able, be delivered at the supply depot, room 25, Old City Hall, as soon as possible. There need be no fear that early delivery will be injurious to perishable articles, as each day’s contributions are delivered after 4 o’clock to the American Refriger- ator Transit Co.’s cooling station, where they are put in cold storage. It is important that would-be contributors do not forget that the last hour for receiving contributions is noon Friday, July 1. Contributors should be careful that parcels are well packed. It is useless to tie cakes and other articles easily broken in paper. They should be put in wooden or tin boxes. All articles should be as securely packed as possible. Supt. Chapman, in charge of the American Refrigerator Transit Co.’s cooling station, has prepared the car that will carry the supplies to Chickamauga, and each day's contributions will be packed into it as they arrive. The Louisville & Nashville Railroad has arranged to make the car a part of its fast freight leaving East St. Louis Friday evening. The names of those for whom contributions were received Tuesday are: Light Battery A—Pierre Janis, John Jenser, Allen Butler, C. F. Nieheuser, Mil- ler, Burke and Thompson. A BARON, A RING AN is Baron Bernhardt F. Gruenbaum stil pacing the floor in a lonesome cell at the Four Courts and wondering how it all came about. ; He is known to the police officials ahd the turnkeys as the “Austrian Count,” and they treat him with a little more consid- eration than they do the average run of Four Courts prisoners, ; jruenbaum is somewhat below medium ‘ height and weighs about 140 pounds. He walks with a quick, nervous tread, and when standing he leans heavily to one side, giving him the appearance of de- formity. , His eyes are large, round and brown.

New Yorn is queried to ascertain if corroboration has come from the correspondent of any other paper and altained tne publicity ot bu.le- tining. In the meantime the preparation of the edition goes on. Type is set, forms made up, stereotype plates cast, presses dressed and then probabiy comes trom sume of the numerous points of inquiry informa- tion discrediting the first report. All the work of issuing an edition has been done, but the public never sees the paper. An illustrative incident of the difficulty of discriminating between the true and the false was given in the early stages of the complications with Spain in the reported drowning of the captain of the Vizcaya in New York Bay. The Spanish fighting ship was in the bay on a friendiy visit. At 8 o’clocK it was reported at the Barge Office at the Battery in New York that the gig of Capt. Eulate of the Vizcaya had been run down by a tug and the captain and attendant otticers drowned at a point olf Tompkinsville. By special wire txis report was brought to the Post-Dispatca. The incident would have been one of tremendous importance in its consequences, following the destruc- tion of the Maine. The edition was prepared and the plates put on the presses, to be released on con- firmation. The Associated Press confirmed the report. A few minutes iater the special correspondent of the Post-Dispatch at New York visited the Barge Office and there learned that the American tug was the At- te teh This information was subsequently read through the country by the Asso- clated Press. The report was apparently true. On the final confirmation the presses were started. One thousand papers were printed and put in the hands of circulators, when the New York Bureau of the Post- Dispatch cast the first doubt on the truth of the report when it wae ascertained that the Atwater was then in East River and its officers reported no accident on docking. The presses were stopped, courters on foot and in cabs were dispatched on a hurried cross sectioning of the central pees of the cify. the distributing wagons were over- hauled and the papers returned to the office before more than a few dozen were sold. Within a half hour the falsity of the re- oo & ix established and the edition was The preparation and the recall of this edition involved an outiay far in excess of $1. The revenue from sold copies amount- ed to 71 cents. A “Modest Correspondent. Richard Harding Davis In the Jn!y Scribner's. To every one of the questions asked the Spanish Lieutenants by Capt. Chadwick, through Scovel, the latter added six of his own, inquiring as to how many troops the Spaniards had placed along the coast, where forts were situated, where patrols met, an¥ how deep th. water was in certain ports. Every how and then Chadwick would say, “That will do, tell him he is free,’’ but Scovel would object: *“‘No, don’t let him go yet, he is telling me things he shouldn't.” And then Scovel would smiie with his innocent blue eyes upon the prisoner, nod encouragingly, and the unhappy Lieutenant would proceed to give him the information that blockading squadron desired. The name of Sylvester Scovel is probably better known in Cuba that that of any other American, even that of Fitzhugh Lee. He is certainly more cordiaily hated than any other of the ‘“‘nation of pigs,’’ and a reward of $10,000 was for some time placed upon his head, The Spaniards captured him once, after he had cluded them hundreds of times; the Senate of the United States de- manded that he should be set at liberty, and after a month's imprisonment he was released. To-day if he ge be taken in Cuba, he would be shot 6r hung on the in- stant, and the death of no other American would, I believe. cause such universal re- joicing among Spanish officers and Spanish residents. Consequently, it was rather amusing to see Spanish Lieutenant Juan de Rio clinging close to Scovel’s elbow, and showing him the utmost deference and gratitude. Scovel wore a yachting cap and a suit of blue serge, so it is probable that the Spaniard mistook him for one of the ship's jumicr officers, But when they parted, after Scovel had shown him over the ship, there was a little scene. They had said farewell with many flourishes and the Spaniard had, after the fashion of his race, made a little speech to the effect that he saw it was as impossible to surpass the courtesy of an American officer as to sur- pass his warship. “You have been most kind to me.” he added, “and I shall always remember it.”’ Scovel iaughed and nodded. “‘My name is Syivester Scovel,” he said, bowing. “I am the correspondent of the New York World and the St. Lou!s Post-Dispatch. The Workingman Pays the Tax. To the Fdi.or of the Post-Dispatch. I wish to state through your paper for the benefit of those who pay rent, that an afternoon paper a fe Ww days ago assured renters that if the charter amendments were adopted rents would be lower. In an iseue of that paper, under date of June 26, it has this to say: “Very few real estate owners can now be found who are opposed to the charter amendments. They are beginning to under- stand that their holdings will be appreci- ated much beyond any amount of money that may be expended.’ Renter, how does this strife you? The landlord's holdings, that {s, his property, is to be enhanced in value much beyond what he has to expend upon it. Do you see how it wjll work? They let the cat jump right out of the bag. According to this, the landlord ts the one who is to be benefited, and as usual the poor man pays the tax. Another class who will profit very largely by the adoption of the scheme, aside from office Lelde ‘ra, contractors, etc., are the law- yer Mr. McQuillin admitted a few days ago that his experiences of ™ years tn the work- ings of the old charter convinced him the new amendments are a good thing and ehould be adopted. Why should not lawyera eak well of it? They expect a good-sized shee for their services in unraveling the tn- tricate and ingenious!y worded document should it be adopted. Let me urge upon you the necessity of every one that pays rent or leases a home to go to the polls on the twelfth day of July and cast his vote against this great de- ception the charter amendments. “St. Louls.

At this time of year I am sometimes re-y minded of an odd adventure North which began one mad March night during a journey from North to South, beginning at the town of Preston, Lancashire. Having adjusted my wraps and made my- self comfortable in the corner of the third- class carriage which my porter had got for me, I took stock of the three other pas- sengers who occupied the other end of the compartment. ‘ A big, lusty, fresh-looking fellow in stout tweeds, and wearing a Scotch cap, Was seated with his face toward the engine; a young lady and a young gentleman faced him, the young gentleman having the cor- ner, the lady resting her head on his shoul- r. “Love's young dream,”’ hummed I—for I was off down South to be married, and was in the sentimental mood. ; A sudden angry movement of the mans limbs disturbe ; his clothes.

The Cincinnatis won both by scores of 8 to 2 ané 5 to 0, and in both games the Browns played good ball, but not good enough to win. To-day the Washingtons play the first game of their series with the Browns. The Senators have been playing great ball of iate, and the Browns will have a hard time keeping them from taking the series.

TURF SCANDAL AT LATONIA. An Investigation Which Ends in the Suspension of Arthur Duffy’s Trainer and Horses. The electric battery or electric saddle, which first appeared on the outlawed tracks around St. Louis and which occasionally bobbed up on the big race courses, came to the surface again on Monday of this week at Latonila, On that day Jockey Aker appesred before the Latonta judges and asked to be re- leased from the contract which Arthur Duffy has on his services. He prefaced his request with a serious charge against ‘Butch’ Diebault, the trainer for Duffy. The boy accused Diebault of having tried on several occasions to get him to use an elec- tric battery on horses ridden by him—not only horses In the Duffy string, but also on outside mounts. He said that when Die- bault first made that sort of a proposition to him he refused to do as requested, giving as one reason for his refusal his inability to handle the device. The battery whic the trainer wanted him to use was a small affair—a magnet battery—to be carried in the hand. ; After hearing Aker’s statement, the judges sent for Diebault. He denied the jockey’s charge and then made a counter charge that Charles Showalter, a former valet of the jockey, had told him that Aker had used an electric saddle. The boy promptly informed the judges that Showalter is now in the employ ol! the L. & N. Railroad, and requested that a policeman be sent for him down to Mill- Rate One of the track detectives was dis- patehed for Showalter, and he was brought to the track without knowing why he had been summoned. In the presence of Diebault he was asked whether he had ever said that Aker used an electric saddle. He emphatically de- nied ever having said anything of the kind, He furthermore denied ever having had any conversation with Diebault, an said that he never had any use for him, or words to that effect. his, of course, put Diebault In a bad position. The judges de- cided to look further into the matter. They will wait until Mr. Duffy can be seen. In the meantime Aker has, pending a further investigation into the matter, been released from his contract and no further entries will be received from the stable until the matter has been settled.

Bob Douglas Thinks That After a Few Rounds Sharkey Will Commence Fouling and Lose the Fight. Tom Sharkey and Gus Rvhlin, who are to fight before the Greater New York Athletic Club at Coney Island to-night, have beth appeared in St. Louis. Sharkey sparred with big Jake Holtman four nights at the Standard Theater and Gus Ruhlin met all comers here at the Nat- atorium and at Lemp’s Hall in South St. Louls. Kuhlin left the best impression of the two, but it must be said for Sharkey that while boxing with Holtman he was badly handicapped. Jake was in no condition at the time, and Sharkey promised to go light with him. He kept his promise, too, de- apste the roar that went up each night and the jeers which followed Sharkey hecause - oa not let himself out and hit Holtman r Ruhlin, on the other hand, exte ‘ himself with all the men he met ee ee all of them a hard punching. In South St. Louis he met the bully of that end and gave him his quietus in a single round. He also met two other stalwart fellows there and made each quit in the first round. St. Louisans, therefore, who do not know the conditions under which Ruhlin and Sharkey appeared here are inclined to fa- vor Ruhlin in to-night’s battle. Reports from.the East say that Sharkey is confident of beating Ruhlin inside of 16 rounds. Ruhlin’s friends also express confidence and say the Akron giant is a much im- proved man since his meeting with McCoy at Syracuse a month ago. To-night’s fight is 25 rounds to a decision and the winner is to receive 75 per cent of an $8500 purse. At New York the betting is 100 to 80 in Sharkey’s favor, and there are not many grabbing for the small end at that. Local opinion is divided as to the winner of to-night’s fight. Charley Daly thinks the men are very evenly matched, and that luck will play an important part in Te the battle. Tom Keily well says that In a fight be- tween two such big men and unskillful box- ers Yuck must play an important part, and that a chance blow may settle it in the early stages of the fight, one man having as good a chance to land as the other. “IT think Ruhlin will win,’’ said Rob Douglass, the local champion, this morning. “I think he will win by Sharkey foulin him. Sharkey will find that he can's liek Ruhlin after ten rounds and then he will commence his fouling tactics, which won’t be tolerated in New York for a minute. On form I believe Ruhlin to be the best man.”’ Joe Murphy thinks well of Sharkey. He has seen him in his fights at San Francisco and believes he will give a good account of himself in to-night’s battle. Tom Allen believes Sharkey will win, al- though he admite that Rublin may give the Sallor Boy a surprise party. Bob Douglas Is going to Chicago this week and on his arrival there he will force Jack Moffat into another match with him. Mof- fat is the man Douglas met in Chicago a few weeks ago and who was given the best of the decision Py the referee, although Bob had the best of It all through. THE YALES WON.

Everyone appeared to know he was going to win and the poor bookmakers were given an awful jolt on the race. Leo Planter and Lee Bruno, Tom Sayers’ colt, were equal favorites in the second race, but Tom’s colt was never in the hunt and Leo Planter won just as he pleased. George Grassmuck’s good horse, Fourth Ward, looked like a@ pipe in the third race, but the pipe went out when Randazzo came on and beat the Grassmuck candidate home by a couple of lengths. The Chemist, with Snell up, won the fourth race and that combination should have won, for The Chemist wae favorite in the betting and all the knowing ones had their checks down on him. It was a shame the way Naoma beat her field in the fifth race. She won by a block. There was a fearful delay at the post in the last race and Bridgeton, the favorite, nad very hot legs before the barrier went up. From end to end he was never in tne hunt. Maddalo, second choice in the betting, won out from Organ Pilot, who, at 4 to 4 was heavily played. Dare II. and Timemaker will not start In ithe Mound City Stake at the Fair Grounds to-morrow, but just as good horses as them will go to the post in that event. ch good ones as Sir Rolla, Forbush, Gold Band, “ireside, Fervor, Laureate, Eitholin, Buck- videre, Inspirer, Nick Carter, What-er-Lou, Prince of India, Harry Duke, Siva and Tranby are eligible to start. The stake is worth $1500. of which $1200 goes to the win- er, $200 to second, $100 to third and fourth to save his stake. The distance is one mile and an eighth. The track at the Fair Grounds Is In love- ly ehape to-day and some very pretty rac- ing should be done over it this afternoon. W. L. Simmons, who earned the sobri- quet of “George Wilkes”? Simmons on the trotting turf, acquired a paying property when he purchased the well-bred filly Ill- Wind. the dam of Belle Bramble, Ed Far- rell and Ben Bramble, all recent winners at the Fair Grounds track. Ill-Wind was sired by imp. Ill-Used out of Trinket. by Great Tom. Trinket, the dam of Linlithzow and several other good thor- oughbreds, besides 11]-Wind, was bought at the Headley sale last fall for $3800 by J. B. Hagen, and is now one of the most €s- teemed matrons at the great Haggin breed- ing establishment at Rancho del Paso, Cali- fornia. Headley sold Ill-Wind to Mr. Simmons as a yearling, and in due course the filly was shipped to Guttenberg, where the Sim- mons stable was then quartered. The fly, shortly after arrival, was taken with dis- temper, and to add to her misfortunes, she got away one day from a stable boy, ran into @ post and lamed her shoulder. Andy McCarty, the deceased jockey, that winter was unable to follow his vocation. Starter Caldwell having set him down. The younger | Simmons, who was then, as he is now, training the stable, gave Andy the job of looking after and exercising the filly. The following spring Caldwell, as a per- sonal favor to Trainer Simmons, reinstated McCarty and, as Ill Wind had shown half mile in :49%, Mr. Simmons shipped the filly to Washington, D. C., where she was entered in a race for which the Mor- ris mare, Laughing Water, was also eligi- ble to start. When the time to weigh itn for the race arrived, the stewards of the Washington track declined to permit McCarthy to ride, and put up a colored boy of their own. Laughing Water won in a drive from II Wind, the time for the half mile being 4944. Next day the necessary authority to ride was received from Caldwell, and. the following day Ill-Wind was entered in a race with Recess, who a few days before had beaten Sir Florian in a trial. With Andy McCarty in the saddle Ill-Wind tip- toed Recess all the way, running the half mile in :48% and the ful) distance of the race, five furlongs, in 1:03. Recess was sent from Washington to Gravesend and won three races off the reel. Ill-Wind, who was heavily entered in the West, came to Chicago, went lame and, failing to round to, was sent to the Simmons farm in Kentucky to be bred. Ill-Wind’s record as a matron is a ree- ord-breaking one. She was bred to Bram- ble, and her first foal was the present 4- year-old, Belle Bramble, who won so hand- ily Monday. Ill-Wind wae next mated to imp. Order, and the offspring of the union was Ed Farrell, whom many turfmen con- sider to be fully up to Derby class. The fol- lowing year Ill-Wind revisited Bramble and produced Ben Bramble, who ran third in the Junior Championship Stake last Satur- day. Thus Ill-Wind’s entire progeny, a 4- year-old, a 3-year-old and 2-yedr-old, are all winners and are all owned and raced by W. L. Simmons, Iil-Wind thas at her side a foal by imp. Order, and if looks go for anything he should be a credit to his distinguished brother and to his half-brother and sister. The international nature of the English turf was well illustrated in the recent race for the Ascot Gold Cup, a trophy which is more coveted by owners than any other of- fered in the racing world. The Ascot Gold Cup is guaranteed to be worth $20,000 and the contest for this valuable prize places the stamp of excellence on the winner as a real race horse, the distance being two milee and a half and the track one of the most trying one In England. Of the eight starters for the race this rear, France sent four to the post, England had three representatives and Italy fur- nished the remaining contestant. America was represented in the entries by St. Cloud II. and Australla by Newhaven II., but both were scratched og to post time. The wianer turned up in the French bred Elf Il., by Upas, an English horse, The Ruch being second and the Itallan candidate, Car- touche, third. Elf Il. carried 130 pounds. The time for the two mile 4:80 ave stakes for 3-year-olds and upwerds at one and one-eighth miles, witt-re the feature of the Fair Grounds card. |The attachment of the seeing clause to the conditions of the race enables each owner to be his own handicapper and as a consequence a large field of horses is sure 4¢ line up in front of the starting gate.

Each train was met by a group of young lads and misses, suitably badged and fully awake to what was ex- pected of then. The teachers, as fast as they arrived, were conducted to the headquarters of the local committees in the First National Bank _ building, where they registered and were assigned to hotels and boarding houses. During the day 230 teachers registered and | @ great Many more came in on the evening trains, The Reception Committee, under the chairmanship of J. P.

The formal qpening was set for 7:30 at the opera house, but the arriva! of dele- gates from the evening trains and the ex- change of greetings delayed it until nearer ‘30 o'clock.

Klene of the Presby- terian Church. Miss Fannie Hahn, accompanied on the preno and violin by Miss Paula Knoebée! and Max Eickhardt, sang ‘‘Waiting.’’ Mayor Edward F. Winkler fined all the teachers who had been tardy, then gener- ously remitted the fines and extended them a cordial welcome to the city. President James A. Farmer of the Schoo] Board, in °n earnest and well delivered ad- dress, extended a welcome on behalf of the schools. President E. E. Van Cleve of Carlyle re- sponded happily and delivered his annual address. His subjcct was ‘“‘The Teacher as a Moral Citizen.’’ He appealed for the highest standard of i conduct on the part of the teachers. ‘“‘What- { en ever may be said of persons in other walks of life,’’ he declared positively, ‘“‘the schoo! teacher has no right to do anything whith might injuriously influence any child under his care.”’ The sentiment was warmly applauded. Mr. Van Cleve was positive in all that he said. He condemned as monsfrous the pres- ent physiology law and as hysterical the flag law, and denounced corruption in legis- lation, particularly legislation affecting the schools. In conclusion he appealed for the teaching which would produce womanly women and manly men. “*This,’’ he declared, “is the sign of our progress. By it we shall win. This is the aim of education. This is the aim of life,’’ At this juncture the retiring president, Mr. Wooters, gracefully turned the meet- ing over to Mr. Van Cleve. After the Young American Mandolin Club had played and been encored, Dr. John H. Finley, President burg, was introduced.

His address was full of the simplest and truest eloquence. Nobody discovered what his subject was and nobody thought to ask. He talked a good deal about Ian Maclar- en's “‘Domeie,"* mingled pathos and humor in the most naturally effective manner and ingeniously conjugated life. Nobody. after it was ovcr, could remem- ber any particular thing that he had said, because he had said everything inimitabiy, but everybody went away intellectually and morally quickened by the scholarly address and with clearer perceptions and warmer sympathies. Wednesday morning’s session opened with a piano solo by Miss Camilla Fuess, Rev. J. W. Fiint pronounced the Invocation. The “Unification of School Forces in South- ern Illinoils’’ was discussed.

Corby, examined the man’s reply was: ‘I know it was a bad job, but then, Milner, I can’t help it if you don’t employ honest inspectors.’ Mr. Mil- ner repeated the contractor's statements at a meeting of the Board of Public Im- provements the following day. His words are on the official minutes of that body for May 24, 1895. “We at Judge Spaulding’s court, has always been postponed. The last time it was continued indefinitely. As long as the suit is pending there is a cloud on my wife's title to her property.”’ Mr. Corby will not vote for the Charter have appeared for trial nine tim¢s but the case amendments.

Shortly afierward Contractor Heman demanded from the city compensation for , labor and material expended on in question, but the authorities withheld his vouchers. Nothing further was done in the case for two years, In May, 1895, the Board of Public Im- rovyements appointed a committee consist- fae of Water Commissioner M. L. Holman and Sewer Commissioner B. H. Colby to definitely ascertain whether the work per- formed on Mrs. Corby's property was ac- ording to the specifications provided for n the contract. Their final report fol- ows: May 24, 1895.

Under the Charter amendments all spec‘al tax bills are to be made out in the name of the contractor. Instead of requiring the contractor to sue within two years or Jose his lien, the amendment provides that all vecial tax bills shall hereafter remain a loud upon the title indefinitely until paid. n the case at hand, assuming the Charter amendments were adopted, Contractor He- man would hold the bill for the granitoid walk against Mrs. Corby and control a mortgage on her property until it was settled, Furthermore, under the charter amendments, where the taxpayers are privileged to settle their bills in yearly in- stallments, the .r interest would be increased to 10 per cent if they omitted a single pay- ment, “The old law ia certainly bad enough,” says Mr. Corby, “but the Charter amend- ments give the contractors the whole earth. They will plunder the people right and left if the Charter amendmenté4 win. They wil harass the poor and {mpose burdens upon them which they are unable to carry.’’ The case shows how hard it is for prop- erty-owners to get honest work and to avoid paying for bad work, even under the protection of the present charter. Under the amendments, special tax bills for new work may be levied at will, and the con- tractors will hold the whip hand. eR ee MISSOURI] WHEAT INJURED, eRe eT Crop Bulletin Says the Greater Part of It Has Been Cut Short. & c ] COLUMBIA, Mo., June 2.—The United States Department of Agriculture climate and crop bulletin of the Weather Bureau, Missourl section, for the week ending yes- terday, says: “The mean temperature of the past week was very near the normal in all sections of the State, and there was somewhat more than the usual amount of sunshine. ulte heavy showers fell in a few scattered lo- ecalities,. but up to Saturday the rainfall was generally light and interfered very little with farm work. In a few counties, princi- pally in the southern sections, growing crops have suffered to some extent from drought, but as a rule there has been. suf- ficient moltsture for present needs, and the dry weather has been very favorable for harvest and the cultivation of corn.

TENTIARY FOR BURGLARY AND LARCENY. _—~—— —— FC! NOW GOES INTO RETIREMENT. Famous Criminal Convicted at Last, but His Attorney Will Move for a New Trial. - Ss whose real name is lightweight crook, “Skippy’’ Rohan, William Rowan, the who, single-handed, has licked more po- licemen than he can remember, has been convicted of burgiary and larceny in Judge Flitcraft’'s court and sentenced to five years in the penitentiary. He was tried for robbing the house of Joseph Rhomberg, M07 Elliot avenue, the night before the murder of old Caspar Beimfohr, for whose murder he was also tried some time ago and acquitted. “Skippy” has had an eventful career as a crook and won the respect of the police by his boldness and daring. He was often arrested and almost as often he fought like a wildcat and succeeded in escaping before he reached the station. When he was finally landed in jail he did not reat until he contrived a dar.ng escape through the house of Jailer Butch Wagner. He got as far as Chicago after his escape, but came to grief there in a street duel with a Chicago policeman, and for a time it was thought he would die from iis at Hy Ly “SKIPPY” ROHAR. “He recovered sufficiently to be Louis to answer for a jong wounds. brought to St. list of offenses.

The Boy’s Regiment Expects to Go to Manila Soon and He Wanted a Last Farewell. Walter Loman, a private tin the 224 Kan- sas Volunteer Infantry, stationed at Falls Church, Va., pessed through St. Louis Tuesday en route to his home tin Topeka. He secured a leave of absence upon per- sonal application to President McKinley. Walter is a Kansas thoroughbred. Spunk is the chief element in his composition. He is only 18 years old. When the war broke out he showed anxiety to shoulder a mus- ket. His mother signed the necessary papers giving her consent to his enlistment, and he kissed her good-by. He sent her many loving letters from Camp Alger. and in each he expressed hope of seeing her before going to the front. Recently the regiment received notice from the War Department to bein readiness for orders to the Philippine Islands. Pri- vate Loman heard the news with mingled joy and apprehension. He thought of his mother in Topeka, and resolved to bid her another farewell. His superior officer had no authority to grant him a pleasure fur- lough. They told him the President of the United States was the only man who could grant his request. Falls Church is only a few miles from the capital. Waller was allowed a day off to go to Washington. He warded off porters, doorkeepers and private secretaries at the Executiye Mansfon and was finally taken into the presence of Mr. McKinley. He quickiy explained his mission. “I want to see mother,” he pleaded, “‘be- cause it may be my last chance.”’ The President looked at the youth a mo- ment and then said: we I don't see how I can refuse you. Walter departed light-hearted and happy. Secretary of War Alger issued the necessary instructions to the Colonel of the 224 Kan- sas Regiment and the young soldier left for his home Sunday. He looked the typical soldier as he resumed his journey on a Mis- sour! Pacific train at Union Station Tues- day morning. WANT CANADA OUR FRIEND.

Water Commissioner M. L. Holman re- ceived a photograph and letter Monday which he values more highly than any- thing of like nature which has come to him in his official career. The photograph was of Nicholas P. Simin and his daughter Olga. The letter was from both, having been written by the young lady and signed by her father. Nicholas P. Simin is the chief engineer — . bam \\quiiliiaw \ a \ \\ and superintendent ofthe waterworks of Moscow, Russia. A few months ago in making a tour of the United States with his daughter he came to St. Louis. Dur- ing ther stay of four or five days Water Commissioner Holman showed them every attention, conducting them over the St. Louis waterworks plant and seeing to -it that their stay was in every way pleasant. So entirely pleased was the Ru®sian that, through his daughter, who acted as his secretary and interpreter, he requested a poetesrapn of Mr. Holman. Mr. Holman iad none at the time, but at Mr. Simin’s urgent request promised to have some taken and send him one. He did so and Monday received in return a photograph of the Russian and his daughter, accom- panied by the following letter in the hand- writing of the young lady: RUSSIA, Moscow, The 28 May (10 June), 1898. Mr. M. I.. Holman, Water Commissioner, St. Louis, U. BS. A.: ; My Dear Sir—I was glad to receive some time SONA ——— ALLO uate a AU CMM SL, LUT, MeL V4 NICHOLAS P.

I inclose it here now and hope that it will reach you safely. I am very much interested in the filtration question of St. Louls and should be glad to know to what conclusions you come after your travel through Europe. With best wishes I remain, Yours truly, NICHOLAS SIMIN. The photograph is a pecullarly graceful ; the young lady is writin compliment to the Americans. Although taken in Moscow everything on it except the two persons is American. Copies of American engineering magazines lie on the table, the books are American reports and in an American tablet with the stars and stripes pictured on the cover. Miss Simin, who is an intellectual young woman of engaging manners, was infatu- ated with America and Americans. She told Mr. Holman if she should ever leave Russia she would certainly make _ the United States her home, a re ee ee ee LITTLE SAP" A TAR IS NOW WITH HIS MATES ON THE LEYDEN. _ sd al Of€¢ the 75 or § seamen sent to Uncle Sam's navy from. Alton there is one who went un- der difficulties that would have discouraged the average patriot. He is William E. Sap- pington, a Ilitle fellow who held in the Al- ton Naval Militia the position of captain of So - - ——-- — -_- the gun crew having charge of the com- pany'’s Howltzer. “Sap,” as the boys called him, was the favorite of the company, and when the examining officers came and put the boys through examinations «o rigid that “Sap” did not pass, there was profound sorrow in the ranks, Of all the persons the boys could spare, they felt they could least spare the ] captain of the gun crew. He was the funmaker of the company. A hundred times he had put the big gun to his shoul- der and trained it here and there in the armory with such vehement expression of what he would do to the Spaniards when he got at them that it made the armory roar with laughter. That “Sap’’ should: be left at home was hard, indeed. W hen the boys went awey to war the lit- tle Captain was disconsolate. A few days later he enmeeares Prom the city. To some of his friends he had disclosed his inten- tion to go to the war in spite of the doctors. Talking to one of them the day before he left he said: “I'm going to get into that navy.” » but how, Sap? The doctors won't pass u. “lll get in anyway. I'll go down to the coast and run across Hewitt. He'll take me on his ship.’ So he went. Tuesday night of last weck he arrived in Mobltle. Parly the next morn- ing he went down to the quay to see the ships and the gulf. He was lonesome and homesick, but he la a stout-hearted little fellow, and the determination to go to the war Was fierce within him.

The Captain heard Hewitt through and said: “Bring him along, young man. He’s the right sort.’”’ Thursday morning the Leyden wil] leave Mobile to rejoin the fleet at Havana. “bill Sap’ will sit on her deck, and if, in the course of her cruising, the Leyden should chance to meet the Yale and the Harvard with the other Alton boys aboard there will go out on the good air of the sea such la yell of great joy as few men have heard. APPROPRIATION BILL. It Was Considered and Not Changed by the City Council. The City Council at Tuesday evening’s meeting wrestled with the annual appro- priation bill for several hours. They got about half through it without changing an item, but further along it is expected the street department and a few other appro- priations will be scaled so as to admit of setting aside $57,000 for burying the city’s wires, The committee will meet again Friday to finish consideration of the bill.

EYE-WITNESSES TELL MARVEL- OUS TALES OF ITS SIZE ; AND STRENGTH. SNAKE’S HOME NEAR CITIZEN JOB’S PASTURE. Disinterested and Truthful Persons Who Have Seen the Monster Agree Upon a Fairly Accu- rate Description of It. An enormous esnake has set up a first- class reign of terror in East Alton. So far it has been content to take the lives of cows, colts and hogs, but the people believe ere long it will develop a taste for human beings and they shudder at the thought of what may happen then. The more excitable of the natives are talking about calling for volunteers.to go forth and engage the monster in mortal combat. An exciting snake hunt Is likely to occur in a few days, which will necess!- tate the serpent hustling some to hold on to his life. From the reports of the eye-witnesses it appears the serpent has taken up his summer residence in the pasture of one Job, who lives on the outskirts of Bast Alton. The reason for the selection of Mr. Job’s pasture over any other seems to be that Mr. Job is not only a patient man, but he keeps constantly on hand a supply. of nour- ishing cows, colts and hogs, of which the serpent is fond. He has already consumed four colts, a cow and a number of shoats. Several months ago the live stock of the community began to turn up missing. First it was a juicy porker. which suddenly dis- appeared from its usual haunts. The head of the household to which it had been at- tached found the place in the pasture where it had evidently given up the ghost after a bitter.struggle. He was mystined by the fact that there were no tracks ex- cept hog tracks on the scene. Phere was a clearly marked trail showing that the porker had been dragged off in triumph by something or other. He fol- lowed the trail half a mile to the bank of Wood River without ever once seeing a track. The trail ended at the opening of a deserted mine on the river bank. He peered into the dark opening and was brought face to face with a pair of green eyes. The farmer was not frightened, but he returned home in great haste, At intervals other hogs and four colts, one of them 4 years old, disappeared in the same way. It was always plainly to be seen that they had been dragged to the opening of one or other of the deserted mines along the river, but nobody ever found out what was the motive force. It came to be an accepted article of be- lief among the people that the orthodox devil was mixed up in it some way. Some thought he was fixing up a Noah's ark for the amusement of his large family of imps. Discoveries made Monday, however, dis- count this theory and afford an explanation of the phenomena of the disappearing live stock. Taylor Foster, a God-fearing man, was walking through Mr. Job’s pasture Monday when he caught a cow, recently deceased, in the act of disappearing. It was being as- sisted by a huge reptile. The aforesaid huge reptile had about three-fourths of it- eelf entwined about the bovine and was lueging it along toward a mine opening. “Stay. What would you do?” cried Mr. Foster. The serpent unwound itself and, with a look of reproach at Mr. Foster, hied itself quickly into the hole, abandoning the slain cow. Mr. Foster retained his prestice of mind and measured the horrid thing with his eye as it “glode.’’ He then hastened away to East Alton and, raising up his voice, told all the people what he had seen. And they marveled much. He said the snake was the “size around” of a man’s body, but forgot to specify the font of the man—big pica or small pica. It was 2 feet long and of a “spotted col- or.” He also forgot to note the celor of the spots. "iaes. Benjamin Paddock, who never heard anything more trying on the imagination than the Psalms of David, also saw the reptile Monday, but the circumstances of the meeting and what the _ serpent re- marked to the descendant of Mrs. Eve has not been related. Strangely, as soon as Mr. Foster had told of the things he had seen a number of persons to whom it had not occurred before that the incident was worthy of mention recollected having seen the same 20-foot snake or one bearing a strong resemblance to it. All these agree that it Is a deal more horrid than anything ever pictured on cir- cus bills. Some say it is as big as a barrel, but others, to be candid, say they don't think it is more than half as big as a large bar- rel. There is also a difference of opinion as to whether ite whiskers are red ~or chrome yellow, but all agree that. it is spotted In color, has a Leiter jaw and for- ARE YOU WANTING - OD SUMMER CLOTHING?

The oldest citizen and the regular sub- ecriber recollect that several years ago a boa constrictor or an anaconda or some- thing escaped from a circus at Alton, and tney think the spotted snake may be the same, but they are at a loss to account for the new features which it has acquireti since it escaped. OLD MR. STAR'S LOYAL O06. a Chewed Mr. McMahon’s Leg and Saved His Master a Whipping. George Star of 110 Casas avenue had a fight Tuesday evening with Thomas Mc- Mahon, who lives in the same house. In the beginning of the fight Star, who is 79 years old, defended himself with a hatchet, cutting MoMahon on the hand. As long as Star was getting the better of the fight, his dog looked on as a disinter- ested spectator, but when McMahon in- creased his energv, the dog rushed to the rescue of his mester and laid hold of Mc- Mahon’s left leg. He was kicked loose once but he came to the front again and seized McMahon's right leg This time he chewed so vigorously that the fight ended by the interference of bystanders. McMahon was attended at the City Dis- pensary, while the old man was locked up. Both will be sent to Police Court charged with disturbing the peace.

WENT OUT IN A NIGHT GOHN, Folks Thought Maggie Was a Ghost on a Daylight Stroll. Maggie Connelly is in the observation ward of the City Hospital as a result of prancing over a large area of the city at 10 o’clock this morning clad in a night dress. Maggie covered territory from a dingy little rear room on the third floor at 813 Market street to the vicinity of Ninth and O'Fallon streets. She was followed by a crowd which at first thought a ghost was taking a daylight promenade. Policeman Burke of the Fourth District arrested Maggie, and, assuming that she was demented. called an ambulance and sent her to the City Dispensary. At the dispensary it was discovered that Maggie was suffering from chronic indulgents in morphine. and Dr. Hughes ordered her to the hospital. Maggie, who ts 21 years old, accounts for her strange conduct by the assertion that her cousin, Willie Carroll, came to her room and told her that her 4-year-old boy was dying at the home of her aunt some- where on Cass avenue.
