SEDALIA, Mo., Aug. 2.—The boldest bank robbery en record in Missouri, committed doubtless by a lone man and in broad day, occurred here Monday. The facts were not made public until to- day. ‘The bank robbed was the National Bank of Gonmerce. John Maines, an advertising solicitor of Terre Haute, is under arrest for the rob- bery, but whether more than circumstantial evidence has been secured against him does not as yet appear. The amount secured by the daylight bank Pa : ' - aw burglar is still kept secret, but was cer- i le oo tainly in the hundreds, and perhaps in the “ho thousands. Entrance was made through a side door leading from the street. into the room of the directors in the rear of the bank proper and from thence inside the railing by a door near and leading directly to the main vault. In his haste the thief left these doors partly ajar, clearly indicating the route of hie ingress. The robbery was committed during the hours when the heaviest business is done ; at the bank counters, and the time can be ‘almost exactly approximated by .the fact ' that it must have been during the few |minutes that the directors’ room was empty. The thief must have been unusually speedy in his actions, seizing a bare mo- ment when the back of both President Yeater and Cashier Ittel were turned on the safe, grabbing all the paper currency : the time afforded him, fillin X shows where the dynamite was found. ee pest from -the vault and eteasar ~ . away as noiselessly and quickly as he came.

It was not intended as a response to the American terms and it was iff no sense conclusive upon the subject matter of the There was no need even of a call by. M. Cambon at the White House or at the State Department. This continues to be the situation up to the present time, not one of such a final character as to constitute an answer for submission to the United States Government. At the same time a final answer is expected daily, and the decision has been already reached at Madrid. It has not reached any quarter in Washington up to the present time, however. the steps by which this may be brought about formally and the measures necessary to be adopted immediately afterwards. _It is said to be not at all improbable that fully three months, so that it may be well along toward the legal date of the as- sembly of Congress before the President will be prepared to submit a peace treaty We were two years, from 1781 to 1783, in arranging a peace with Great Britain to terminate the revglutionary war. ‘In the case of the Chinese-Japanese war it terminated that-war.

This action is not to wait upon the work of the peace commissioners, but is to precede it, and to follow immediately upon the signature of the memorandum ac- cepting the President's conditions. The word “Immediately”.in this case is perhaps a little deceptive. The ex- perience of the War Department in the endeavor to remove to Spain the Spanish‘ troops surrendered at Santiago has not justified the expectation that the large force of Spanish regulars can be gathered up_and shipped home to Spain in less than about 60 days at the best. This estimate is based on the fact that it is not expected by the Spanish troop transports that they will be able to return all of the Santiago prisoners to Spain before Sept. 1. Therefore, what is meant by the word “Imme- diately” is that the Spanish Government shal! at least begin the arrangeinents af once for the evacuation. of the islaads. —_— a ee alibi would not be a hard task. namite together is regarded as a significant| Maines was arrested last night i l c ner is > i dasa s cé . bit of evidence ape .

He and his wife, who was an intelligent woman, worked hard, raised cotton and produce, which Mil- ler sold in Memphis, saved their money and they were just abour to raise the mortgage on the farm when he got into the trouble. In the neighborhood was an_ itinerant reacher named Isaac Jeems. For a time © was in charge of the church at Richard- son's Landing. There was a factional fight in the congregation. Miller led the oppos!l- tion to the pastor and he was forced to Sive up the church .and move off of the church lot. “Growing out of that,’ said Miiler Wednesday to a Post-Dispatch reporter in the East St. Louis Police Station, ‘there was hard feeling between us.

It was here the children had their fears confirmed, to the consterna- tion of their protector.

The suspicions were dissi-, pated by the evidence that Williams had suffered two previous strokes of apoplexy, during one of which he had lain in snow several hours. On this showing the in- surance companies paid the full amount of the policies. In the settlement of this matter and the estate James Glass was deprived of some land that he had leased from Williams and his antagonism against Col. Clark and Col. Sellar was thereby aroused. James Sum- merville lived near the Williams farm and he also became antagonized against Messrs. Clark and Sellar for reasons which are not entirely clear to the public. Not long after the death of Williame a circular was scattered broadcast over Ed- gar County, signed by Summerville and Glaes, and making the most scurrilous charges against Col. Clark and Col. Seliar. The latter paid no attention to the circular. Not long after another and a similar one appeared, also signed by Summerville and Giass. This was also treated with silent contempt, Col. Clark and Col. Sellar are popular in Edgar County and neither knew they had any enemies: except Summerville and Glass. Last April, when the Paris military com- pany left for the front, a great crowd was in town. During the morning Glass and Col. Clark met at the courthouse. Glass called the Colonel aside. Hie asked Col.-Clark whether Summerville had got any money out of the settlement of the Williams insurance. Col. Clark declined to answer the ques- tion. “Then,” Glass is quoted as having said, ‘“T-am going to the bottom of this affair. ' And when I do,’’ tapping Col, Clark on the shoulder, “I will go after you.” “Do you mean that as a threat?’ manded Col. Clark. Giass said he did not. “Well, it is a threat.’ said Col. Clark. “I don’t mind your talking and abuse. but your threats may amoun: to something. 1 shall watch you.” Glass still denied that he had meant to threaten Col. Clark and Col. Clark abused him roundly. They were separated by friends and Glaas afterward abused Col. Clark to a bystander saying Col. Clark had deprived him of a means of livelihood. In this he referregq to the taking away of the Williams land which he had been renting. i CURZON TO BE VICEROY. A Chicago Woman, Under the Empress, Will Be Greatest in India. ALBUQUERQUE, N.

OLD IDEA, NEW PROMOTER. Senator A.W.Brewster Organizing New Republican Clubs to “Down the Bosses.” Special to the Post-Dispatch. ST. JOSEPH, Mo., Aug. 3.—A change in the leadership of the Republican party has taken place In 8t. Joseph, and it may make, in time, a change in the entire State. Sena- tor Arthur W. Brewster is at the head of the. new faction, which has for its motto the downing of the Republican bosses in this State. State Senator Brewster is Lie idol of the Republicans in this Congress'‘on- a@i district, and in this pert of the State. He is being urged to make the race for Cor- gress against Mont Cochran, but ts frank to declare that that would only mean defeai IIs. ag na of Senator Brewster to not run for Congress does not prevent hitn from being the most popular man in the district, and when he announced a few days ago that a mass meeting would be held to organize a club to down the bosses, the largest room in the Court House could not contain the crowd that responded. He waa elected president of the club and the move- ment is sweeping all over the county. The other counties in the district will follow the example of Buchanan. The primary object of the new organiza- tion is to depose Major John L. Bittinger, Ralph O. Stauber and Postmaster Frank M. Atkinson of the power they have in the city and county and that has already been done, it is believed. At least the followérs of these friends of Kerens have nearly a joined the Brewster club and the leaders of the Filley faction are also in ft. The frank motto of the club is “No Bosses.

LITTLE FOOD FOR THE FIGHTERS; LESS MEDICINE FOR THE SICK. Commanders of Brigades and Regiments Begged Clara Barton for Supplies for Their Hungry Men. NEW YORK. Aug. 8.—Rev. Peter Maoc- ' Queen of Bomerville, Mass., has returned from Santiago, where he witnessed the battles with the Spaniards, and assisted:¢in the care of the wounded. He was not at- tached to any command, but went to Cuba on his own account to study special phases of the war. Dr. MacQueen, who ie a- Congregational minister, writes touchingly of what he saw. “Iliness,”’ he says, “has decimated the army more than Mausers, and our men shudder to think what would have happened had the Spaniards held out ten days more. No words can describe the hunger and misery after the battles, when some of the men had no tents, no fod, no blankets. Many men. went 48 hours on hardtack and a litile water, and up to and after the surrender the men suffered everything, from hunger end want of medical supplies. “If you asked for quinine from the reet- mental doctor he would dole it out to you as a miser does gold. Yet you never asked a soldier for half of his hardtack and got re- fused. His canteen waa yours in the heat of tropic days; and you could share his Dianket anywhere at any time that night. “There is a great deal of true religion, too, in camp. One could tell the Catholic boys by the little lockets they carry around their necks, and all the boys could sing hymns when they tried. “One night, I well recall, before the sur- render. The band of the First Iiljnois on a hill above us played “The Star Spangled Ranner,’ then a band beyond took it up and it passed five miles along the line— rand axon tune, dieplacing airs of old aéstile. After a few moments’ silence one of the ‘Rough Riders’ started ‘On the Ranks of the Wabash.’ One line was very Seetty: *The moon is soft and fair upon the “Wabash; from the hilis there comes the ecert of new-mown hay.’ “ "Great heavens!’ I said to Capt. Luna, “what recollections that must ring to them among these etenchful trenches.’ “Then they sang ‘Sweet Rosie O'Grady., Finally somebody started ‘Nearer, My God, to Thee.’ The bovs sang it through, every word. Two or three hymns were sung, the lads, with splendid voices, making the little bills rejoice. ’ “They seemed to know the words and tunes so well that I remarked to Arizona mn: *These boys know hymns pretty well, am,’ “*Parson,’ said Sam, eveing me conde- scendingly, ‘them yer fellers has got good memories. It's a long time since any o’ that lot heard them hymns in church. And ez fur religion, ef you want to know. them boys need tobacco a great deal more than they needs hymn books.’ “It was those Arizona men that young ‘Rert’ McMillan, son of Commissioner Mc- Milian of New York, joined. I saw many of hig lettere to his father, in which he shows the true man and soldier. In one letter he said he did not wish to join the New York millionaires, but, rather, these cowboys: for, he said, they were perhaps rough outside, but true blue from stem to stern, “When one reads this boy's letter where he tells his father how.he bagged two Spaniards in a fight, and how next morn- ing he kissed his mother’s picture. read the old Bible and prayed for them at home, one feels the days of chivalry and honor have not passed. “A New Mexico ‘rider’ told me of Bert McMillan: ‘He wan't a robust lookin’ chap, but he could shoot well, and he wasn't soon turned. He was one of the first to get to the top o' the hill.’ “The sufferings of the refugees at El Caney were frightful. A Spaniard offered $100 in American gold for 100 pounds of flour. One woman I saw gave a soldier a gold bracelet for two hardtacks. Many a time a bottle of wine sold for a mouthful of meat. “The Spaniards are dirty; the Cubans dirtier; the Spaniards are.hungry, the Cu- bans hungrier. A negro of the Fourth Cavalry described our Santiago allies as the ‘eatinest lot o' dam scoundrels’ he ever saw. “lt saw Gen. Ludlow and Gen. Wood and Col. Roosevelt, all within the space of an hour. come to Clara Barton at the plier where she was unloading her stores from the State of Texas, and vy beg of her for cornmeal and rice, mi and a few dried fruits. ‘Our men are sick,’ they said, ‘and more will be sick.’ ' ‘‘Miss Barton helped them all. But when they had gone, she said to me: ‘If the American Commissary cannot send in food in time of peace to a handful of men, what could it do with an army as large as that we had in the Civil War?’ ‘‘Even the iron will of Theodore Roose- velt was shattered when he, half ill him- eelf, sat on the stump of a cocoanut tree as I bade him good-by. He had 121 men ill out of 430, and 25 men ill in one company of 50 men. "If we were hemmed in by the enemy,’ he glocmily remarked, ‘or if we were mak. ing a last stand for national existence, we could bear it and more without complaint. But we are in a land of peace and behind us the great America with granaries burst- ing with every kind of food, and I cannot ouy at any price food or delicacies for my sick men.’ ”’ SERIOUS SITUATIONATMANILA —— Aguinaldo’s Successes Have Completely Turned His Head. WASHINGTON, Aug. 8—The Adminis- tration has cause to worry over the situa- tion at Manila. It has become apparent that Aguinaldo’s success has completely turned his head, and the influence which he exerts over several hundred thousand semi-civilized or even. barbarous = §war- riors presents a serious complication. The conditions which confront the comparalive- ly smal) forces under Gen. Merritt's com- mand between Cavite and Manila are shown by official reports to be even more dangerous than intimated in press dls- patches and the Administretion is gratified to see that most of the influential news- papers of the country have come to ap- preciate some of the responsibilities which will be imposed upon the Government if the United States found it necessary to take permanent possession of the archi- pelago. This contingency was thoroughly con- . sidered by the military and naval authori- ties as early ag the middle of May when Gen. Merritt was selected to take an army corps across the Pacific. This was before Aguinaldo assumed an impudent attitude and at a time when he was giving every assurance of subordination to Admiral Dewey. About that timé the military au- thorities in conference at Washington, ‘both Gen. Miles and Gen. Merritt being present, carefully studied all conceivable phases of the establishment of an American protec- torate over the Philippine group, and agreed that the minimum strength of the United @tates land forces that would be essential was ae follows: For garrison of Philippines 150,000 -men; for garrison of Luzon Isiand alone, &; men; for garrison of Manila alone, 25,000 men. These estimates were based upon the as- sumption that for a considerabie period at least after the expulsion of the Spaniards all the native leaders would exhibit their gratitude to the Americans by heartily sup- poewne the new order of things. From the vest information that could be obtained re- garding the habitea and characteristics of the natives, Gens. Miles and Merritt, as well as other army officens who discussed the matter, were convinced that whether the American occupation was to be for one year or five years, a standing force equal] to that given above would be indispen- sable. They agreed that while such a force might have little to do most of the time, as had been the case with army garrisons several years ago in the far West, the na- tives could no more be relied upon to con- tinue their peaceful pursuits for an reat length of time than the American Indians in farmer days, and that with smaller gar- risons an uprising might lead to a disaster which would horrify the United States. As a consequence of these deliberations and conclusions regarding the whole PhiI- ippines group, the attention of the authori- ties was then concentrated.upon the proba- bility of the retention of the islands of Luzon alone and after debating the matter and digesting a vast amount of informa- tion about that Island the officers ard offi- clails*'were unanimously of the opinion that it would be indiscreet tn the extreme to attempt to control the 3,000,000 inhabitants of Luzon with less than 50,000 men. Anh 2 study of the condition at Manila having due regard to the continuance there of Admiral Dewey’s squadron, resulted in the authorities discovering nothin to war- rant any modification of the pro- posed garrison of that city, which was con- sidered a most conservative estimate, and the fact that Gen. Merritt's command was fixed at 25,000 men is taken to Indicate that this government a month ago did not se- riously contemplate the occupation:of more territory by the army than that included in the city of Manila, while the navy; with its ships and marines, maintained posses- sion of Cavite and Manila Bay. Even then the proposition is subjected to modification by the audacity of Aguinaldo and little short of his death or capture is apt to clear up the complications. "= —_—— ASTOR WAS IN THE FIGHTING. The Colonel Recounts His Experience in the Battles Before Santiago. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NPW YORK, Aug. 3.—Lieutenant-Colone!] John Jacob Astor of Gen. Shafter's staff came back on short leave of absence on Monday. He was the bearer of dispatches from Gen, Shafter to Secretary Alger. “Ie it true that the Spaniards used ex- Diosive bullets?" he was asked. “No; I think not. The Mauser bullets, in addition to the singing noise they mak», have a cracking or popping sound as they went through the air. This probbaly start- @d the stories that they were explosive.” “You heard a good many of these bul- lets ?"’ “Oh, everybody heard Astor. “The great trouble was to tell where they came from.

Astor gave @ very interestin scription of the internal and externa rangement of the Spanish blockhouses. “Those blockhouses are great things, said the Colonel. “‘Looking at them from a distance it would seem easy to hit their defenders and demolish them, but one only sees a part of the structure: from the out- side “Nearly all of them are eunk into the ground and the earth is piled up around them in euch a Way as to permit the men within them on the lower floor to fire from portholes about six inches ebove the ground, There is a second floor, which ts also provided with portho.es, and on top is the lookout tower. “Barbed wire ia a great ene in warfare, and the Spaniards have learned how to use it, If we had had to take Santiago by storm, many of our men would have lost their Uvee in getting through the barbed wire defenses lam giad Gen, Toral sur- rendered when he ¢did, as there would have been a terrible lose of Iife had we been oblimwed to take the city by storm.” (ol, Astor, in common with many other army officers. expresses himself as being etre naly in favor of the use of smokeless power, Gen. Shafter directed Col. Astor one day to convey those officers who were prisof- ers of war to Gen, Duffield at Siboney. “If they try to escape.” Col. Astor asked Gen. Shafter, “shall I shoot them?’ “Shoot nothing.” said the General; “they Won't-attempt to escape.”’ “The Spanish officers.” Col.

That would a beginning of real prosperity in that part of the island. “If Cuba was own by this country the public lands there could be given to the Zest as the pubifc lands in the tates were formerly given, and in a very short time the islan would be great and p ous.”’ Col. Astor would not be quoted in regard to the Philippine question, but he is un- doubtedly strongly in favor of annexing these islands also. “T think this war,” said he, “will be a very good thing for the country. Its moral effect on Europe will compensate for what it has cost us. settlers, Western ropean nations, notably Germany, cannot be overestimated. If we had a war with Germany I think we could wipe out the German navy, although not as easily as we did the Spanish fleets. Germany has, of course, a stronger army than ours, but in case of war, and k-hope there will be none, she could not use her army against us.” In speaking further of the patriotic ef- fects of the war on the American nation, he said that one good result would be that it would set the people thinking in a new direction. “Perhaps,” ventured the reporter, “it may result in taking their minds from a too deep engrossment in the pursuit of the al: mighty dollar.” “Oh, I don’t know,” eaid Col. Astor, “I care more for don’t believe .our people money than those of other countries, I think the French are just_as eager in their pursuit of wealth. But I think it would be a good thing for the country to have more holidays.” In changing frome etate of war toa condition of peace there are well-de- Oo fined customs which belligerent nations usually respect. The custom generally ohserved is for & peace commission to be appointed from each of the warring nations, The commissiong meet in some selected spot and spend weeks In presenting to one another their positions, the victor making this demands and the van- quished agreeing to as small conces- sions as possible. The result is the formation of a treaty, usually signed by the members of the commissions, and in governments like the United States presented to the legislative body for ratification. In the meantime, per- haps, an armistice is declared between the two armies pending the action of the commission, though this is not nec- essary, and the question of deeds of violence or breaches committed by the members of either army during an armistice has given rise to many dell- cate points in international law. A treaty may be in any form, but {fs usually reduced to writing. It is some- times verbal. The treaties among Eu- ropean powers, however, are generally written, and begin, “In, the name of the Most Holy and Indivisible Trinity.”’ All treaties must be ratified before becoming effective. In .the United States the power of treaty making is vested in the President, but two-thirds of the Senate must ratify it. It has been questioned whether or not the House of Representatives has not a negative power, by refusing to pass such laws as the treaty may direct, but the opinion seems prevalent that a treaty is a solemn pledge of the na- tion to follow. out its requirements, and that the House of Representatives cannot properly refuse to pass its re- quired laws. The last treaty of peace entered into by:this Government was the treaty which ended the war between the United States and Mexico. It was signed at Guadalupe Hidalgo, Feb. 2, 1848. Mr. Trist, who was the American representative, began the negotiations with Mexico while the war was yet raging. He met the Mexican commis- sioners and by allowing a clause to creep into the compact that cast a shade of doubt over the exact bounda- ries of the acquisitions of the United States, found himself out of favor with the administration and waa promptly 0-0-0—-0--0-0-—-0-—-0-0-—0-0- 00-00-00 0-00-00 0-00-0009) HOW PEACE TREATIES ARE MADE. recalled. No substitute representative of this Government was provided, and Gen. Scott, commanding the army, was even at this juncture not invested with any authority to make peace. He was instructed to transmit to Washington whatever proposals the Mexican Government wished to make, and to continue movements for carry- ing on-.the hostilities. Mr. Trist, however, assumed the re- sponsibility, though deprived of all of- ficial authority, and with the Mexican Commission drew up the. treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, Feb. 2, 1848. The treaty was sent to President Polk, who transmitted it to Congress. Congress was indignant. The Senators consid- ered the treaty simply in the light of a compact between a private citizen of the United States and the Commis- sioners of Mexico. They considered it binding. however, on the part of Mex- ico, as any unratified treaty might be, because her authorized commissioners had signed it. The discussion in Con- gress was long and heated, but al- though so irregularly negotiated, the treaty was ratified with a few altera- tions on (March 10, 148. The Mexican Congress subsequently ratified it May 30, 1848. Trist, who had represented this Government, was dismissed. The Mexican treaty was signed by Mr. Trist, for the United States, and Don Luis G. Cuevas, Don Bernardo Conto and Don Miguel Atristain, the Mexican commissioners. The treaty contained 23 articles, and one addi- tional and secret article stipulating that the ratification by the Govern- ment of Washington might: be deferred four months beyond the term fixed in the open articles of the treaty. The principal conditions were—the restora- tion of peace, the cession of Texas, New Mexico and Upper California; the payment by the United States in con- sideration of the territory, of $15,000,000, and a contract to restrain the incur- sions and misconduct of the Indians on the northern frontier. ¢ In European countries the “concert of powers” interests itself in every treaty made by members .of the con- cert. ‘The warring nations sit simply as representatives in the peace negotia- tions and the terms and concessions are dictated by the convention. It will be interesting to know what attitude and what part the powers will play the treaty between the United Stat and Spain. ° oO ° O CUBAN PRISONERS MUST BE SET FREE. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.—President Mc- Kinley will eoon be asked to _ include among the pfovisions upon which peace will be established with Spain the freeing of all Cubans imprisoned by that country for offenses which may be classed as political, In all the Spanish penal colonies—Ceuta and the like, there are about 600 Cubans who have been captured during the last three ycars. The horrors of these prisoners have been fully described lately and it has been eaid the punishment met*d out to these men is altogether out of keeping with their crimes. This effort will be made by Tomas Es- trada Palma, the Preqident of the Cuban Junta. In fact, he has already instituted an agitation to that end, and he wiil not give up until his object has been accom- plished. Friends of his are now at work in the capital, with this purpose in view, and they will soon be in communication with the officials. ‘Is it not just and fair that this should be done?” said President Palma. ‘Here Is a war won with the help of the Cubans. Thousands of prisoners have been taken by the American Army and they are not to be kept, but are to be sent back to Spain. This is magnanimous on the part of Amer- ica, but would it not be a good thing to make this a vehicle for the liberation of the Cubans who have been imprisoned since the war began? “I think this would be a most laudable plan, and I do not think it_ will be neces- sary to do much urging. : think ft will commend itself to any thinking man that the Cubans, who are in prison for the very thing for which the Americans have gone to war should be free now that Spain has been defeated, and that there is so good a chance to exchange them for some of the thousands of the Spaniards, who have been ystured in the war. oer his brings me to a conelderation of the terms imposed on Spain by the United States. I feel they are most moderate and in my opinion this government has raised itself to the highest attitide in demanding eo little. It virtually asks from Spain as follows: ‘Give us Cuba for the Capen: giye us Porto Rico for ourselves .and the Philippines to mone —, of that may re e determined. hereafter be you come to look at it, what does these demands really mean.

NEW YORK, Aug. 3.—Accounts o the condition of affairs in Havana, Matan- zas and Cardenas have been given by pas- sengers of the steamer Fridtjof Nansen, which has arrived.from Sagua. She brought 29 refugees, most of whom were Spaniards, who had made all sorts of sacrifices to escape from the island in anticipation of its being controlled by the insurgents. Many of them were well supplied with funds, hav- ing turned all their available property into cash. They paid $250 each for passage. Almost all those aboard being Spanish sympathizers, a meeting was held in the saloon while the ship was off Barnegat, N. J.. at which a majority pledged them- selves to refuse to give any information to Americans. ‘A few gas lamps are still burning in the streets, but the electric lights are lighted on Thursday nights, when music in the Parque Centrale. ghastly mockery those concerts are, so many people starving to death within sound of the mueic. All the theaters are closed and. their lobbies are nightly crowd- ed with the homeless poor. Wine is the only thing in the city that is-plentiful and cheap, 20 that even the poor can get a lit- tle at times. ‘‘Almost all the stores in Weyler and O’Reillv streets are closed, as are the prin- cipal hotels. The stock of coal is; almost completely exhausted and for a few days the local trains that run to Vedado, past the Santa Clara battery, were stopped for wart of fuel. They are now burning wood, but even that will soon be gone.” Juan Zarraga Zarte said: “I do not know anything of the condition of things in Ha- vana. but I do know that there is much misery at Cardenas and Matanzas. Things, however, might be worse, considering the atringency of the blockade. Much starva- tion has been avoided by. the foresight of the merchants, who, in afiticipation of the outbreak of the war, laid in large etores of provisions. Of course they have sold at high rrices, and I heard of oné man who made $400,000 in a speculation inj flour in Sagua. All the stores which have provisions are kept under constant guard by soldiers to yrevent the starving people hem. Every one is tired of the war and on all hands one hears prayers that peace will soon come.”’ The Nansen brought up a cargo of sugar which she discharged at Williamsburg. She also brought 368 bales of tobacco and 322 cases of cigars. This was the first «cargo of sugar reaching the United States since the surrender of Santiago. > THE POPE INTERCEDES WASHINGTON, Aug. 3—The War and Navy Departments have’ received through hey wanted to «0.

A Message'to Prevent Haste and Confusion and Relieve the Strais Upon the Offices—The Unprecedented Response to the Offer Compels This Notification—An Unusual Condition That May Have Been Caused by the Vast War Circulation of the Daily (Reprinted from Post-Dispatch of Tues day, June 28.) It has never before been necessary fm the ten years of this practice, in the case of a special offer for a limited time, to change or alter, that offer in any way be fore the time limit get. Whether it is the war ofroulation of the dally press—the almost incredible circula- tion that the newspapers have built upon the public interest over the fight with Spain—or whether it is the increasing faith of the public tn the Copeland practice—a confidence growing year by year as the vastness of the practice proves—or whether it is both, it is hard to say. In any event it is true that Doctors Copeland and Thompson are utterly unable to care for the crowds responding to the offer of the famous free month plan, pub- lished tn these columns June 1. Indeed, if, ag is usually the case, the crowds should be allowed to increase dey by day.until the end of the period it would be a physical impossibility to care for even a sma!! proportion of them. Just this, however, was anticipated early in the month, and with good reason, for upon the day following the publication of the offer the number of people taking ad- vantage of it was greater than had ever applied to the Cupeland offices during any one day in their history. This unprece- dented response showe4 Doctor Copeland that it was no ordinary condition that was to be met. So the following clause was in- serted in all presen‘acio hone ectemnar ne of the offer in Doctors Copeland and Thompson, with their magnificent Offices, with the increased factlities which were made nevessary for the treatment of the Deaf, will maintain this invitation to all until July let, unless the number applying exceeds the possibility of their personal care and attention. In case tt does—in case it becomes a physical impossibility for them to care forali the people—they will give notice in these col- umnse BEFORE, not after, the close of the month. Unless you see this offer changed or withdrawn by imperative notice promi- nently given in these columnsa before July lst, you are weloome to ite provisions. Pursuant to this clause, Doctor Cope- land gives notice that more time will be allowed under the offer after the first of -the month; that it will not be withdrawn July ist, but will be changed so as to ac- commodate.all the people. There need be no hurry or confusion. Ample time—days of grace, if we may call them so—will be given to all after the first of the month, and all will be cared for. It fs no part of Doctor Copeland's plan to deprive any who desire to take advantage of this oppor- tunity. Th‘s will serve as a reply to many personal requests and as weil to hundreds of letters which it has been impossible to answer. All patients applying for treatment during these days of grace aliuded to above and all patients renewing treat- ment at the Copeland institute (Rooms 201, 202, 203 Odd Fellows’ Building, 816 Olive street), will receive one month’s medicine and treatmont free— that is, during one whole month they will be treated and supplied with med. icine absolutely withcut pay or com- pensation of any kind. -— bl Doctor Copeland’s lectures and Symp- tom Blanks forwarded to any address.

The Post-Dispatch is unable to congratulate the Republican party on the demise of Boss Filley for two reasons.. ; Will Boss Filley stay dead? “De Ole Man” has been buried so often only to have a triumphant resurrection, that we can- not accept as conclusive the evidence of death so joyfully pYyinted out by his victorious opponents. Filley ts-a political "possum. If the Boss is really dead, what have the Republicans got in exchange for his rulership upon which congratulations may be based? The Filley gang was downed by the “City Nall gang,”’ the men who have Iooted the city of enormous franchise values, packed the Government with political bar- nacles, and who contrived the Charter amendment scheme of wholesale plunder. If Boss Filley had been overthrown by a popular uprising of Republicans it would have been an excellent thing for -the Republican party and the city. But one boss is exchanged for another and the Filley gang is In nowise improved upon by the City Hall gang. There is not a gleam of better things for the Republican party in the defeat of the old boss. . A tl ee a .* —s el Aguinaldo is the “troubleman” of the Philippines and he is on a strike. = = " = a " HE SERVED HIS KING. Prince Bismarck desired to be remembered as “a faithful German servant of Emperor William I.” With all his intelligence and force of character the great Chancellor was yet a medieval statesman. He comprehended and gave effect to the German aspiration for unity: be built up a mighty military empire, which overshadows Europe and is the pride of every German heart. But, if his own words are to be taken at their face value, he did it as a servant of his King. It was the Hohenzollern, or, at most, the mon- archy, that engaged his affections. The nation did not occupy his mind. From beginning to end of his career he treated popular rights with contempt. lt is strange that one so great should be so out of sympathy with the controlling ideas of his time. And, stranger still, that he was able to accomplish his object without employing them, and often in spite of them. If he had served the people with half the zeal he served his King would not his work have been greater? Would it not have had a better guarantee of perpetuity? Is the Empire an enduring fact or a brilliant anachronism? = Se a | If Hobson had succeeded in blocking the entrance to San- tiago harbor Cervera’s squadron would not have gone out to Gestruction and the sudden turn of fortune in vor of the American forces would not have occurred. Hobson's failure mde BSchiey’s and Shafter’s victories possible. It looks like the hand of Providence. =! \ a A GRACIOUS HERO, Raetageet thought and the greatest satisfaction come from the fact that our conduct that day has won the people's love and earned the nation’s admiration.” This noble sentiment so admirably expressed concerning the naval victory at Santiago !s from the pen of Commodore Behley, whose generous nature and high min@ have been thoroughly demonstrated during the war. It Was Commodore Schley who, after generously praising every man under his command without a single reference to himé@elf, wrote in his report to Rear Admiral Sampson that the victory was “big enough for all of us.” Commodore Schley has been singularly happy in his utter- ances, but they cannot be attributed to a mere knack of saying thi They spring from generous and noble impulses. They "— k the man. . he irresistible charm of the man has gained the affection asthe skill and courage of the commander has won the ad- miration, of the people. Americans have reason to be proud and fond of this modest and gracious hero. _— wa The people should get together tn the spring and give the present Municipal Assembly a perpetual vacation. | _— — ws THE LONDON FINANCIAL RIOT. The Hooley case reveals a condition of wild speculation and reckless disregard: of moral principle in London exceeding thatin New York during the worst days of Jim Fisk ana Erie. Members of the English upper classes seem to have gone mad over “companies” and “shares.” The exploitation of Bouth Africa whetted the appetite of impecunious lords for ensy profits and the fever is now raging tn all departments of enterprise. Any man With nerve and a smooth tongue can organize a company. Hie can float shares on the strength of @& gaudy prespectus and the lords are plenty as blackberries who will sell the use of their names to boom the rottenest fraud. They are bent on getting Ifow, ts another story. The aristocracy of Engiand undoubtedly deserves its reputation the beet arieteracy in the world, but the black sheep are wous and obiiusive. They adopt the vld Scotch woman's Time was when a clever rogue could puwue such a course and get away with the booty, but in these days of garish publicity failure is almost certain. The London financial riot ig pretty sure to be put down by sheer force of public opinion. >> |S |S — The Thompson hanging presented another bungled horror to the spectators in the jail yard. When will St. Louis be relieved of execution barbarities by the employment of a competent hangman? The torture of the condemned is not céntemplated in the death sentence, but is scarcely ever lacking in a St. Louis hanging. "= — = — QUAYISM AND BOSSISM. The Philadelphia Ledger,-a high-minded newspaper of the Republican persuasion, declares that the voters of Pennsyl- vania are totally unfit to be trusted with the ballot.. With singular short-sightedness the Ledger lays it all to Quay, who has debauched the voters by the corrupt use of money. ‘ This yiew is too personal. Quay is bad enough, to be sure, but he is only a product and his influence will disappear with the conditions which gave it birth. The machine built up by Cameron and perfected by Quay is supported by private in- terests enriched by public spoils. The protection policy has fattened a few persons in Pennsylvania and, to perpetuate their power, it is necessary that they control the legislative, administrative and judicial departments of the State govern- ment, to say nothing of the representatives and Senators in Congress. Quay is their employe, their humble servant. His power rests upon theirs and when theirs.is broken he will wink out. The boss is not well understood. Too much indignation ana energy are wasted upon him. The special interests behind him are the real sources of corruption in National, State and municipal politics. Eliminate them and the boss would be- come a useful ajtizen, either in the penitentiary or outside, as he himself should choose. - = » ™ i, - The deluge of letters to t*c President advising him as to how the Philippine problem should be settled is, perhaps, the next best thing to getting a popular vote. The worst of it its that many are writing without reflecting sufficiently upon a matter of so much importance. ° = = The murderer who was executed by electricity at Sing Sing on Monday was dead in 55 seconds. The murderer exe- cuted in St. Louis with a rope was not pronounced dead until he had been suspended 18 minutes. This is a large difference in favor of the chair. = ae Instead of leading a great army to battle, Fitzhugh Lee is likely to be made temporary Governor of Cuba. This is some- thing quite different from the career that had been marked out for him by his countrymen at the time he returned from the island. “Guinea-piggine” is the term applied to the action of Brit- ish peers who lend their names and titles to serve as decoys for real investors. The polyhog feeds fat whenever he can utilize the guinea pigs. +e ——_-___-__—__ Part of Bismarck’s money is in the Bank of England. What- ever German prejudice there may be as to Great Britain, there seems to be a good deal of German confidence in British financial institutions. = = = Now that we have given France the free trade of reci- procity, Switzerland also asks it. The drift is ever toward an unshackled commerce, no matter how often unjust tariff laws are enacted. If any foreign power wants to see such an uprising in the United. States as would astonish the world, let it inter- fere in a belligerent way with the settlement of the Philip- pines problem. >> Lion Weyler points out to the Queen Regent the fact that the church is rich. If he could have his way, doubtless the Span- ish treasury would soon be replenished from the church's ac- cumulations. | i he hp Quay is said to be dominating both the Republican and Democratic parties in Pennsylvania.

He is earried into the bird shop, where his wounds are dressed by Yolette’ Then he is removed to an upper room over the shop.

Harewood sat moodily by the window, biting the amber pipe stem. staring ab- sently across the fortifications opposite where, beyond, ennes in a sapphire haze the valley of the Bievre lay, green and brilliant under the showered sunshine. To the east a dun-colored vapor hung over Meudon woods, to the south the sun glit- tered on distant window panes dotting the valley with tiny points of fire. Everywhere lay patches of green woods, checkered ex- panses of yellow grain stubble and plowed round, squares of paler green where cab- sages grew, or blots of somber verdure, marking potato flelds. White epires rose beyond !Hay; greenhouses, roofs spark- ling, clustered along the. route to Fonte- nay, and over all, the great warders of the valley loomed, purple through the mist, ma- jestic. mysterlous—Fort Ivry, Fort Bicetre, Fort Montrogue and Fort Vanves. Bourke sauntered in presently, noteBook open, pipe lighted. “Forgot to tell you something,’ he said, between his teeth. “I found out that Jules Favre contemplates making overtures to Bismarck.

Collins. an American citi- zen, has been murdere@ by Spaniards at Manila, Philippine Islands. | Mr. Kpott, who represents Mr, Collins in a claim against the Spanish Government | for damages inflicted in the seizure of his |property valued at $125,000, in 1874, by Span- teh authorities in the Philippines, has a let- | ter from Mr. Collins, dated June 7, at Man- | Ha, in which the writer says he is safe on a British warship. Mr. Collins was a PhiladelIphian who s- cured a concession in the Philippines a!- lowing him to cut and ship tumber. Hi. fbecame very wealthy, and the Governor of tne province, becoming envious of his good fortune, seized hig propetty. Mr. Collins. through Mr. Knott, filed a claim with the State Department at Washington, ‘ Once before this statement rhat Collins was dead was printed, much to thre daMate of Collins. who suffered from the resent- ment of the Spanish, arcused by the enatgke that he had been assassinated. Tais story Was traced to a person who would profit by Collins’ death by inheriting a share of his claim. Mr. Knott thinks the last story was in- spired by the same motive. He says the War has greatly increased Mr. Collins’ chance of collecting his claim. MR. KAY WANTED MATCHGS He Was Helping Himself When the Bartender Jumped Upon Him. James Kay, with two fractures of the skull, 15 scalp wounds and a broken thum)d on his left Rand, swore to a warrant Wednesday morning charging assault and battery against Emile Wintere, a bartend- er in @ saloon at 900 Pine street. Kay said he stopped in the saloon Tuer- day night to get 4 match. As he was help- ing himself from a box on the counter Winter made some ugly remark. Kay said he then put back the matches he had taken and told Winters that he would go else- where for them, when, he said, Winter rushed out from behind the bar With a pistol in hbs hand. At the same timé an- other man grabbed Kay and held him. Then, says Kay, Winters beat him over the head with the butt of the’ revolver. Kay’s acreams attracted Policeman Barney Regan, who arrested Winters. Kay is a bookmaker’s clerk at the Fair Grounds and lives at 1307 Chouteau avenue. His wounds were dressed at the City ,-Dispengeary. POISON DOES ITS WORK ‘Lovesick Cornelius Weisse Now a Corpse From the Dose He SwWallowed.

Fine English Worsted first thought thet his death was the result of a conspiracy to assassinate. In the absence of any evidence showing this, the police decided that Brant had been murdered by the bungling highwaymen, The letter received by the Post-Dispatch from Cambridge asserts that the two bul- lets were from the same pistol, and that the writer of the letter had fired the shots. The exclamation made by one of the three men, “Go, you've got him,”’ indicated that : something more than robbery was intended, and there may be a pointer for the detec- , tives in the story which the letter-writer tells. The only weak point, apparently, in the murder theory, is that no one can be found who had any interest in Brant’s death. Brant was divorced from Millie Harding, a former St. Louis girl and daughter of Roger Harding. Letters which passed be- tween them, made public after the murder, showed that they were planning to remarry and that they loved each other devotedly and were kept apart only by the determined | Now He Has Gone to Fort McPherson /. opposition of Roger Harding.
