CUBAN DEBT A WORRY. ——_@-—__— Spanish Government Will Try to Es- cape at Least Part of It. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, 1898, by the Press Publishing Company. MADRID, Aug. 12.—When the names of the American peace commission are an- nounced Spain will appoint hers. Senor Moret, unfortunately, will not be one of them, because of the violent antagonism to him from the opposition and the jingo press and people. They cannot forget or forgive the foresight he displayed when Colonial Minister in his home rule policy for the West Indies and the Philippines, and in his strenuously objecting to going to war with the United Btates. The Spaniards w!lll make a last effort to avoid paying the so- called Cuban debt, They admit that they cannot in any case ask the United &pates to assume the debt or even to guarantee its payment. But they will argue that some part of the debt—at least the bonds issued before the insurrection which began in February, 1895, the proceeds of which were appropriated for public works in Cuba— ought to be charged to the new Cuban commonwealth, The amount expended upon such public works would be only a very small propor- tion of the $155,000,000 of debt which Cuba was pledged as security for prior to 1895. The debt question has not been discussed in the negotiations hitherto, because the Madrid Government had no chance to do it. President McKinley’e term and time limit for the protocol would not admit of introducing the subject. In order to come within the American limit the Spanish Government had to ask the French Government to allow M. Cambon to act as a plenipotentiary for Spain to sign the protocol immediately at Washington and had to cable to him full ithority to do so. ef the French Government had declined to grant the request there were but two other things for Spain to do, either to in- struct the Spanish Ambassador at Paris, Senor Leon y Castillo, to sign the Iinetru- ment with the American Ambassador there. Gen. Porter, or to cable the Spanish Alinister to Mexico, the Marquis RBendana, to go to Washington to #ign it with the American Secretary of State. The more ex- peditious course of the two, the latter, would have occasioned a delay of four days. NO MORE CUBAN FIGHTING. Shafter Wires That All Have Been Notified of the End of War.

The President may decide to make a change In the commission as it now stands, and, es there is no special reason why it should be announced immediately, it Was agreed to defer the announcement of the names until all possible chance for re- consideration had been removed.

Nothing definite has been done about; the constitution of the commission, which is te meet in Havana and San Juan to arrange Ss t ed * VRy ? ’ for the evacuation by the Spanish forces of the islands of Cuba and Porto Rico. Ad- jutant-General Corbin, whose name had been mentioned in connection with the head of the commission, says that he will not be a member. The representatives of the is United States will be three in number, and in all probability will be officers of the army and navy. WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.—Secretary Day, Senator Allison and Senator Gorman, in all probaQjlity, willl be three of the Paris Commission, and either Joseph Choate Elihu Root of New York will be 7. Senator Davis of Minnesota will be a place on the commission, but it is ex» L/h i id SIGNING OF THE PROTOC selected, OL: WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.~—With simplicity in keeping with republican institutions, the war which has raged between Spain and the United States for a period of three months and 22 days was quietly terminated, when Secretary Day, for the United States, and M. Cambon, for Spain,’ in the presence of President McKinley, signed a protocol which will form the basis of a definite treaty of peace. At, 2:45 Secretary Thiebaut of the French Embassy appeared at the State Department to inform Secretary Day that the Ambassa- dor was in full poesession of the note, was fully empowdered to sign the protocol for Spain. He intimated that the Ambassador would be pleased to have the final ceremony conducted in the presence of President Mc- Kinley, where the negotiations were be- un. Leaving the Secretary of the Embassy n his own office, Secretary Day made a short visit to the White Houge to learn ths President's wishes in the matter. The latter immediately consented to accept the sug- goatton, and Mr. Thiebaut hastened to in- orm his principal) that the President would the White House at 4 o'clock, At the appointed hour a driving rain storm prevailed, obliging all the parties to resort to carriages for transportation to the White House. Secretary y came first, with a la portfolio under his arm in- closing copies of the protocol of the proc- lamation to be issued by the President stopping hostilities and some other neces- sary papers. He was accompanied by As- sistant Secratary Moore, Second Assistant Secretary Adee and Third Assistant Secre- tary Cridler. They went immediately initio the Cabinet roog, where the President sat in walting. He had invited to be present the Assistant Secretaries Pruden and Cor- telyou and Lieutenant-Colonel Montgomery. When Ambassabor Cambon_ reached the White House it was just 3:55 o’click, five minutes in advance of the appointed hour. The rain was still violent and the Am- bassador abandoned Nis usual custom of alighting at the outer gates of the execu- tive grounds, He was driven under the porte cochere, passing through a cordon of newspaper men before he and Secretary Thiebaut were ushered Inside. They went direct to the Hbrary, adjoining the Cabinet room. on the upper floor. At 4:6 they were announced to the waiting party in the Cab- inet room und were ushered into their presence. After an exchange of diplomatic courte- sies, unnecessary loss of time did not oc- cur and Assistant Secretary. of State (Crid- ler, on the part of the United States, and Secretary Thiebaut, on the part of Spain, retired to a window, where there was a eritical formal examination of the protocol. rhis .nspection had all the outward formal. itles due’'a document of this importance. It was prepared in duplicate at the State Department, one copy to be retained by the United States Government and the other to become the property of Spain.

Xi THIS IS THE CURFEW THAT MAY BE RUNG. Louis. Four hundred cities in the United States have already adopted it; and the officials report a decrease of from 75 to SU per cent in commitments of boys and _ girls to station houses and reform schools. There is no political or denominational feature in this work, but one entirely for the better- ment of humankind. The curfew was in vogue in France and Spain 1200 years ago. It was then a signal be!l compelling all in- habitants, old and young, to be within doors after nightfall and to extinguish all lights. This was done by monarchs to pre- vent gatherings and plottings against the government, We give the expression in our time a different interpretation, simply compelling youths under 15 years of age in cities, towns and villages to be off the streets and at home after & o’clock in the winter and 9 o'clock in the summer. Eighty er cent of the voters in every town that as adopted the measure approve it. Sev- enty-five per cent of the parents of our country exercise home ruie and control their children. Twenty-five per cent do not. “We do not claim that the curfew will lessen the police force at present, but the effect of keeping young boys off the streets until their characters are almost formed will lessen the crime in future years. There is everything in favor of the curfew and nothing against .it. When children are caught on the streets after the curfew hour they are taken home. Children ac- companied by parents or grown persons, or upon important errands, are not to be mo- lested.”’ SHAW A “PERFECT ANGEL.” So Says His Wife, but the Federal Of- ficials Differ With Her. Wm.

Out of the levee slums comes this story, showing how hard it is to kill a child of that district. Annie Molinsky, 8 years old, who lives with her parents at 725 South Second street, is at the City Hospital with a knife wound in her side that would kill most little girls. But Annie will live, the doctors say, and when a reporter for the Post-Dispaicn looked into the ward where she is a pa- ticnt, she was sitting up on her cot ask- ing many childish questions about the place that was 80 strange to her. Little Annie was stabbed Friday evening by a negro boy, whose name has not yet been learned by the police, and who is still at large. As the story goes on the Levee, the colored lad passed along where Annie and several companions were playing, ‘Nigger!’ shouted eeveral of the chil- ren. The black boy didn’t like to be reminded of his color, and he took after the crowd with a knife. He caught Annie and plungid a knife in her left breast. Then in the Levee language, he “made his git away.’ Annie went home and told her mother she had been stabbed. The mother thought it didn't amount to much and played the part of doctor herself. Later’ the wound bled so yrofusely that the child was sent to the ‘7, mma and from there to the Hog- pital. HURLED STONES AT HIM, President Rodgers of the North Alton Brick Co.

CARLISLE WILL RELINQUISH HIS OFFICE SUNDAY EVENING. glean BAUMHOFF BEGINS copae a Announcement of Xew Assistants Not Yet Ready to Be Given the Pubiic. Postmaster James L. Carl sie will relin- guish his office to h‘s succeseor, Frederick W. Baumhoff. Sunday. Mr. Baumhoff will assume control Mcn- day morning. He is not ready to alay speculation as to his appS8intments. “They have been selected,” he said Satur- day, “but the names will not be made public until some time next week.” Inspector Dice Saturday morning called in Inspectors Williams, Sullivan and Sin- clair to assist in the work of transferring the Postoffice to the new Postmaster. Sunday morning tlie Inspectors will go carefully over the postmaster’s accounts, count the cash, stampe, pouches and make a general inventory of all postoffice prop- erty. . I’ wil all be made over to Mr. Baumhoi’ and Mr. Carlisle te a receipt. His duties as postmaster wili then be ended. Mr. Carlisle has no decided plans for his immediate future. ‘The first thing I will do,” he said, “‘will be to take a good rest. I don’t think I shail leave St. Louis, as this weather suits me, I will not be ready tu go to work be- fore October, “In leaving this office I bid farewell to four of the pleasantest years of my busi- ness life. I do not believe a large office like this was ever run with less friction, and it wag all due to the efficiency of my assist- ants. I was particularly fortunate in the selection of my assistant postmasters and the heads of the different departments, All have been painstaking men, anda result St. Louis has had a model office. My clerks, with but rare exceptions, have been efficient, and I know our car- riers are the best in the Government serv- ice. They cover more ground, make moré collectians and do their work better than any carriers I have ever seen. “All this harmony and efficiency has been to the benefit of the citizens, and shall feel more than repaid for my small share of honor if the departments get the SELL Sagnener of credit that is so deservedly eirs. It ts announced on high authority that several changes will be made in the Post- office when Mr. Baumhoff assumes charge. Douglass Caruthers, private gsecreta to Postmaster Carlile, is said to be slated for removal. J. Henry Bracken, who has been connected with the postal] service for poveral years, will be appointed to the po- sition. From official sources comes information that the new assistant postmaster will not be chosen from the present force. The po#i- tion does not come under the civil service and Mr. Baumhoff may accordingly name whom he pleases. A friend of the post- master-elect said Saturday: “An outsider will undoubtedly receive consideration from Baumbhoff. It has been understood for a long time that some Re- publican who is not a political henchman will receive the place. Mr. Caruthers will premeny be changed to another position, ae e is a civil service employe. Mr. Brocken is a compétent young man and he has the full confidence of Mr. Baumhoff; in fact they have been ciose personal friends for WILL BE CONTINUED. Women’s Relief Corps to Share in the Klondike Profits All Season. The closing performance at Klondike Park, under the direction of the Woman's Relief Corps, will be given Saturday night. So far the week's receipts have been em- inently satisfactory and it is hoped that as this is the crowning performance every one interested in the relief of the soldiers and their families will turn out and give thelr quarters. Manager McMannus has made the Jadics a splendid offer—volunteering to give them half of the receipts for the balance of the season. The ladies are to be allowed to sell tickets for 26 cents, reserved seats and entrance inclusive, while the regular price is 10 cents admission and 2 cents for re- served seats. All of those buying tickets of the ladies get them 10 cents cheaper by this method. Tickets will be on sale at all of the large downtown stores and by all of the ladies in the corps and can be had at any +' ime, , It is hoped in this way to realize a hand- some profit by the end of the season.

This step is necessary, Sobe to the impoverished finances of the Reilef Association, made so mainly by the de, falcation of ex-Treasurer Riedy. There are now 37 pensioners on the rolls and if tne $ reduction becomes effective the number will be increased, yet nots enough to offset the difference. If the reduction is made all those who have sults pending against the associations for pensions will be ad- mitted without further question and the suits will be dismissed. Saturday's meeting was only preliminary to another meeting that will be held within a few days, when the subject will be con- sidered by the Executive Committee. CAPT.

With the signing of the preliminary treaty of peace the war is virtually closed 4 In all respects Americans have reason to be satisfied. The war was undertaken from the purest motives, in which there was no mixture of selfish interest. We answered the cry of the oppressed anl with no thought of profit to ourselves set about the duty imposed upon us. It was a war for humanity, to set free a people enslaved, to expel the last remnant of tyranny from the American Continent and to set up a gov- ernment of ordered liberty in Cuba. The conduct of the war has been such as to satisfy the most ardent patriot. The navy is a perfect fighting machine not surpassed by any of the European fleets. The officers and men lacked nothing in training, intelligence and courage. The patient discipline of twenty years bore fruit in the magnifi- cent victories of Dewey and Schley, the glory of which is shared by every man engaged, for every man, from Admiral down, did his duty with a clock-like precision which startled the experts of Europe. The land fightjng was a surprige to foreign critic and Amer- ican patriot as well. “Steadiness and individual initiative’— these were the two characteristics of the soldier. They are at the base of American character in peace and war. They constitute the foundation of his power and the guarantee of its perpetuity. The “raw levies” which used to be the object of ridicule were fully equal to the task set them. The Amer- ican citizen can turn himself tnto a soldier on short notice. And when he fights he is a disciplined man, not a mere ma- chine. The moral benefit to America is the best result of the war. Whatever material advantage may be derived from our suc- cess, it is infinitely less in worth than the new consciousness of power, duty and responsibility which has entered the heart of the nation. We have learned much since the war began: our horizon is widened. Without our will new tasks have been given us which, if performed in the true American spirit, cannot but produce blessings to all the world. + +o While@t.

The only “Kid Mayor” feels older now than he did a few days ago. Let us hope that he is also wiser. With the dog pound closed for lack of funds, the City Govern- ment has clearly gone to the bow-wows. With his “‘watermiliions’ the Southern negro is happier than the richest multi-millionaire in all the East. The city that has not one girl who has kissed Hero Hobson must take a back seat and admit that it Is “slow.” Col, Astor has $70,000,000 worth of real estate in New York and may not want to put any money into colonial ground. The silver enuffer that will extinguish the taper that is to heat the wax for the protocol will at the same time snuff out Spain. The unidentified bondholder patriot and the volunteer with no chance to go to the “‘colonies’’ are both wondering what the war was begun for. The doctors and Christian Scientists should keep tab on the number of patients they lose. Nothing is so convincing as facts properly presented. Gen, Fred Grant is not to come out of the war laurelless. His escape toward Porto Rico is one of the most notable events of this peaceful conflict. Hyrmn-maker Watts’ line, “Let dogs delight to bark and bite,” will be the favorite motto in St. Louis now, while the dog pound is closed for lack of funds. Dr. Frankenfield goes to Washington crowned with the glory of a cool, delightful St. Louis summer. No other weather observ- er could have produced such a season. Young women all over the country are bobbing up with the pre- tention that they kissed Hobson first. No attention should be paid to these unfounded claims. The St. Louis girl ‘“‘got there” first. With a St. Loulsan at the head of the National Hay Associa- tion we may expect to see growing many more blades of grass than have hitherto appeared, even in gome of the streets of Chi- cago. Chicago citizens just now are complaining of the brutality of the dog catchers. There are likely to be numerous St. Louis citizens who will shortly be complaining of the brutality of the dogs. / A St. Louls man, Mr. Daniel W. Clifton, has been chosen president of the National Hay Association. Mr. Clifton knows the difference between hay foot and straw foot in the march of commercial progress.

The beauty ¢*- pects «to be entertained by her admirers, and she does not put herself out to please men, thinking her personal charms will hold them chained to her chariot. For a time beauty contents a man. But aftee his eyes are satisfied he wants to be amused, And if the entertaining plain girl appears just at that juncture sn¢ finds him an easy conquest. A woman may be immensely her own sex and not in the men. Women admire the good, bright, capable girl: so do men, theoretically, but they usually leave her to the reward which vir- tue is said to bestow upon its own. When a woman possesses “‘charm’ com- bined with personal attractions, very few men stop to ask whether she fs capable, good or useful. Men and women view a woman from en- tirely different standpoints. There are girls who are alert. bright and full of life and spirit while in the presence of men. So soon as the environment is female they wilt and collapse like a “four o'clock” blossom at sunset. There is still another woman,’’ who makes herself adorably sweet and entertaining to her masculine friends; she is full of tact, repartee and charm. But with her own sex she is pert, selfish and malicious. know a woman who sets herself to the task of amusing and charming every man she meets.

FEW years ago the papers all over A the country authoritatively stated that a French hairdresser had suc- ceeded in effecting a process for perma- nently curling or waving the hair. As I was spending several months in Paris I decided to acquire a head of perma- nently curled hair When I reached the celebrated M.

When I was delivered from the hands of the artist I gave one long, agonizing glance at the reflection of a head whose facial features I recognized as my own. But, oh, could you have seen my curls!

Women in Offices. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch It was an odd coincidence that a day or two after you had published Ella Wheeler Wileox’s article pointing out that women have a much better chance for employment than men, a couple of women came to grief in St. Louls because they found it tm- ~ossible to get work. As a general thing, nowever,. there is no doubt Mra. Wiicox is right.

In the ordl- nary car it is almost unbearable in summer, when windows must be open. ‘on a re- cent rallway trip a crying child annoyed the passengers for hours, and all because the poor little thing had a cinder in its eye.

H/Chancery 9% Sea Lion THE THE SHOREHAM, The Sailors Are Reputed Brave and All Brutality Is Charged to Passengers. PARIS. Aug. 13.—Far from being pun- ished. the members of the crew of the ill- fated transatlantic liner La Bourgogne are about to be decorated, some with the cross of the Legion of Honor, others with life- saving medals, by President Faure, for the allezed heroism which they are asserted to have shown at the time of the disaster. This is the result of the inquiry instituted by the naval authorities at Havre into the matter. and the Minister of Marine, M. Lov kroy, son-in-law of France's reat author, Victor Hugo, has submitte to President Faure the names of the members of the crew who are to receive decorations. According to the official report the charges of cowardice and savagery brought against the officers and the crew of the un- fortunate vessel are “‘shameful calumnies,” and the hope is expressed that the honors about to be conferred upon them by ane | French Government will in some way atone for the injustice of the slanders of which they have been the victims. The official report admits that there was a good deal of brutality and savagery dis- played but it insists that the crew and the officers of the vessel were entifely in- nocent thereof, and that it must be laid at the door of certain of the steerage pas- sengers. Six of these steerage passengers, whose names are Puetti, Giovanni, Buralli, Bonich,. Malchowltz, Lans and Richman, have been liberated as the result of the investigation, which has cleared them of the charges brought against them The report, which is the joint work of the naval and criminal authorities, practically declares that the only man guilty of the savagery and brutality “wrongly ascribed to the crew'’ was an Austrian steerage pas- senger of the name of Louis Possett, who, Of th heavy. enone hi ince ry, Absolutely Fireproof.

Frank Greenwald was driving a cow through his orchard when suddenly the animal refused to £0 further. On investigation Greenwald found under a tree a short dietance from the road the body of Mary Manhil, a domestic who had been employed in the village. On closer investigation he found the girls throat cut, the loody razor with which the deed was done lying but a few feet away. Fora distance of several yarda the tall grass showed evidence of a terrible struggle. An examination showed that the girl hed not been assaulted, and as she had no money the motive for the terrible deed can- not be imagined. Officera discovered the tracks of a man leading to the raliroad track from the scene of thé crime, and if found blood on the barb wire fence where he had croesed the track. The girl had tolkid several friends she was to be married soon to her foster brother, Albert Parish.

While roughing it with hoboes of the worst type, Eddie could not give his wound- ed leg the right kind of attention, and it will be several weeks before he is well.

The demand for securil- ties from the outside public has, to a cer- extent, taken the market from the of the wealthy speculative clique inaugurated the bull movement. These large interests have been active in the market and have met the large out- side demand by offerings to realize in tue market, leaders which they took up and advanced first in order to influence the market. But this selling to take profits has been accompanied by shifting their holdings into other stocks, the speculation during the tain handg which active in the non-dividend paying stock- on which surplus is known to be available for disbursement. There has been a large digestion of stocks and the trading has been exceedingly varied and much ess professional than last week. Professionals who have sold are likely to hesitate about buying at the same or higher prices, so that the market has come to the point where there are occasional pressure of offerings by weak holders whose margins are quickly wiped out by a moderate decline. But the power ol absorption of the market has proved larger and heavy buying orders have been forthcoming before the fall _ in prices reached far. The stiffening of money on Thursday afternoon on ac- count of the demand for government bonds subscriptions was more effective in check- ing the rise in prices than any of the bear news circulated during the week. = ey od 8 1) ce Tt , *) > - | . 7 : oP ee ; KO brig ES CPV LEC is) LA, Ze Fa a § =IN cha oe 7 ad 2. — - — vn a LS brah Sake oe, ee ee Poe A ST.

VALLIANT TO BE APPOINTED. New Nominee for the Supreme Court May Step at Once Into IRS Position. Judge Leroy B. Valliant, who has been nominated for the short term on the Su- pseme Bench, will probably become a mem- ber of that court before his election. This will come about through the resignation oi Judge Willlam M. Willlams, which is ex. pected to occur sometime between now and the October term of the court. The reasons for Judge Williams’ resigna- tion grow out of the peculiar condition which exists on the Supreme Bench. Judge Willlams is now serving out the term of Judge Barclay, which expires Jan. 1. Judge Ww. C. Marshall is serving out the term of the late Judge Macfarlane, which expires four years hence, Judge Williams will resign now, rather than wait until his term expires, because he thinks it only fair to hia successor that he should have an opportunity of hearing the cases that will be argued in the Octo- ber term. If Judge Valliant is appointed in his place he will hear these cases, and, being elected in November, will continue to sit on the bench tn completion of Jud Macfarilane’s term of four years, and will have a chance to decide them. Judge Marshall, who is now filling the vacancy which Judge Valliant will com- mence to fill Jan. 1. if he is appointed, will at that time begin his own term of 10 years, Judge Valliant having completed the term of Judge Barclay. ; There is little room for doubt that Gov. Stephens will appoint Judge Valliant when Judge Williams resigns. To appoint any one else would leave the same difficulty that Judge Williams is attempting to avoid by resigning. Judge Williams has wanted to resign be- fore, but withheld action until after the State Convention in order that the nominee for the short term might be avalilable as his successor. He left a lucrative law practice at Boonville when he went on the bench after Judge Barclay’s resigna- tion, end has been anxious to return to it ever since. In fact it is understood that his acceptance was entirely the result of his personal friendship for Gov. Stephens. The State Democratic Committee will meet next Friday, Aug. 19, at the Planters’ Hotel in this city to complete its organiza- tion. ’ Sam B. Cook having been re-clected by the convention will continue to be the Chairman. But for the secretaryship a warm contest has begun. Mee, M. Conklin of Carroll is an applicant. e has served as a mem- ber of the committee and is a prominent lawyer. Ewing M*tchell, a relative of Con- gressman Bland, is also a candidate, and in the event he cannot succeed the office may go to James T. Bradshaw of Lebanon, who is a member of the committee, but who wants the office, but will not be a candidate against Mitchell. HENRY THONE WAS A HERO. a Lost His Life Trying to Gave That of His Companion. Henry Thone of 8t. Charles, Mo., was & hero at 11 years, and lost his life in an at- tempt to save a companion from drowning. A lot of boys were bathing in Pundman's quarry pond, when one of them got beyond his depth and screamed for help. Young Thone struck out for him and grasped the drowning boy about the body and shoved Nim back into shallow water. Thone was unable to recover himself and sank in deep water. No older persons were present and the other boys were too emall and frightened to render any assis- tance. His body was found after the pond had been dragged. Justice J. W. Bruns held an inquest and signed the death certificate in the absense of the cororer. fu of the little hero was held at 8t. Peter’s Catholic Church Saturday morning.
