Men who know things are causing Mayor Ziegenhein and tie of departments all sorts of A™ ear and a half ago a man named ®chumacher, employed by Foreman George Hausmann of the asphalt repair gang, was discharged. A month ago a carpenter employed at the asphalt yard was discharged. Two days ago Schumacher and the other man, accompanied by two other employes of the asphalt repair gang, called on Miuy- or Ziegenhein. They made charges of such seriousness against Foreman George Hausmann and =his brother, Joe Haus- mann. that’ the Hausmann brothers were summarily discharged. Mxactly what the workmen Mayor has not been revealed. It is admit- tcd that they charged that George Haus- mann had collected money from the city on the item of overtime work, which they alleged he had put in his own pocket. It is said they charged that he had carried five straw men on his payroll, and com- pelled all of the men under him to pay him a part of their salaries in consideration of their appointment. Wednesday morning the Hausmann brothers called on Mavor Zierenhein. It is supposed that they mentioned some things they knew and intimated that they would tell them to the Maior Committee. Anyway the effect of what they said had an electrical! effect on the Mayor. He called in Street Commissioner Milner and ex- Assistant Stree: Commissioner Jullus Wurz- burger. When the Hausmann brothers left the Mayor's office they had the aseurance that they would be reinstated. W.

ITs EMPLOYES RECEIVE THREE TIMES THE PAY OF SENATORS. —-—- Each Democratic Member Has Six Good Places to Distribute Among His Retainers for Politi- cal Profit. Gpecial to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb, 2.,—E:xtrava- gance with the people’s money is not con- fined to the House. The Senate is In the same business. It is resorting to public plunder for political purposes as energeti- cally as the House. The difference between the House and Senate is that the plunder proceeds in the Senate without disagreement while in the House it is a fruitful cause of quarrels. The Senate is composed of 34 members and the President, at $5 each a day or $175 a day for the lot. The clerical force, includ- ing all employes of the Senate from secre- tary to spitton-cleaners numbers 164, at a daily cost of $594.50. Thus the employes or the Senate cost more than three times the cost of the Senators, and the cost of the clerical force of the Senate, with its 34 members, is not quite $200 less than the cost of the clerical force of the House with its 140 members. This gives each Democratic Senator s‘x places to distribute among his retainers, and 14 to spare, nine of which were gener- ously given to the nine Republican Sena- tors. The remaining five are pages, who are elected. It will be seen that the ma- jority of Senators divide the spoils equally among themselves, so that there is no pos- sibility of undignified discord. As in the case of the House, a compar!i- gon with the revising sessions of 1879 and 1889, in the matter of clerical force is not out of place. The same rule holds good with the Senate, as with the House, that there is very little more work to be done in this revising session than there was in 1879 and Yet many sinecures have been provided by this Senate, sinecures which pass under titles even more high- sounding than some under which some em- ployes of the House labor. All the employes of the Senate except 20 are known as clerks, whether their work is of a clerical nature or not, in order that they may draw $3.50 a day. In 1879, the first revising session, the economy was, as nearly as can be ascer- tained, of the most rigid kind. The whole force of Senate employes numbered not more than a score, and it is reasonable to suppose there were no sinecure jobs. In 1889 the total force, inclusive of the Secretary’s and Doo.eeper’s forces, was 82, just, one-half of che force this year. The dally cost of that force was about one- half the $594.50 which the present force costs. There are 34 revision clerks, each Senator having one. There are 25 commit- tee clerks. one for each committee, whose appointment is confined to the Democratic Senators. There are 20 enrolling clerks and . 20 engrossing clerks. On the Joorkeeper’s staff there are two Mbrary clerks whose sole duty is to take are of a 3x6 book case full of legal vol- “umes, which is not opened oftener than nce a day; one absentee clerk, whose duty t is to hunt up the absentees when there 38 something that appens as often as half a dozen times dur- g& a session; two postal clerks who have charge of the Senate mail after it is car- ried to the Senate and two mail clerks who carry it there—these clerks really have eomething to do; one superintendent of heating and ventilation, and he is provid- ed with a clerk; one day and one night clerk custodian, who are night watchman, yclept clerks for financia] reasons explained above; two cloakroom clerks, whose busi- ness it is to see that no thief tampers with the overcoats and hats of august Senators; four typewriting clerks and four steno- graphic clerks, it belng, doubtless, thought too much like work for a typewriter to also ae A GIRL’S COMPLEXIO Comes From the Inside. Whenever I failed to get my coffee for breakfast, I would have a sick head- ache before noon. It seemed to me a curious thing that a naturally healthy girl should have sick spells of this kind unless she had been dosed in the morning with something. I naturally concluded that all was not right, and inasmuch as I was in a very nervous condition anyhow, I went to the doctor for a nerve tonic. He told me 1 would have to quit drink- ing coffee, and when I said I could not ossibly do it because I always got sick if I didn’t have the coffee, he said, “Use Postum Food Coffee.” Well, I tried it — and gave it up because it tasted so at. One day I was up to Dr. Ruggles’ In- firmary and remarked to Mrs. Ruggles that the Doctor had told me that I must leave off coffee and wanted me to use “this new fangled stuff called Postum.” but that it was-positively unbearable. She said, ““My dear, you never have had a good cup of Postum evidently.” I said, “No, I never have. I have only tried it twice.” ‘“Well,’* she said, “you go back and look at the package and you will ob- serve that the directions insist upon con- tinued boiling, at least fifteen minutes, not that length of time for the pot to set on the stove, but it must stay there until it begins to boil, and then boil fifteen minutes. I will guarantee you will get a fine, delicious tasting, black, rich cup of coffee, and perhaps better flavored than any you ever tried before. The old- fashioned -coffee is actually killing you,” she said. “You are terribly nervous, and your complexion is a long ways from what it should be at your age.” Well, when I got home, I tried making some Postum at once, and followed di- rections carefully, and I must say it was just delicious. I have continued to use it ever since. I am well and hearty now, and my complexion has cleared up so that dur- ing the last three months people remark to me continually, ‘How clear your skin is!” Iam naturally of a light complexion and fair. Dr Ruggles has all of his pa- tients use Postum instead of ordinary coffee. I have induced papa to take up Postum, and he likes it very much. One of our neighbors, Mr. C. A. Barke, was ill in bed with heart and some kind of | He was a habitual ‘eoffee drinker, but when he got down, Jy.

The Senate Committee on Clerical Force this year showed no guch humility as was shown by the same committee ten years ago, in offering its report. Then the com- mittee reported timidly, apologizing for seeming to be extrawagant in exceeding precedent in the number of clerks. Ike the House, too, the Senate has not escaped the charge of nepotism. One Sena- tor has a son on the enrolling force, and another has a relative by marriage on the same force. Two other Senators ap- pointed their brothers as clerks. Three Senators have sons for revision clerks, another a daughter, and another has appointed his wife. This makes a total of nine Senators who have found places for their relatives on the force. There are seven women on the Senate force. Supplementary to the comparison of the Clerical forces of the Houses of 1879, 1859 and 1899, all revising sessions Representa- tive John Organ of Dent County who was a member of the House in 1879, adds some interesting factS regarding the size of the force at that time. It was impossible to find the record of the engrossing and enrolling forces of that year, and Mr. Organ was asked about it He said there were no engrossing or en- rolling forces until there was work for them to do. In this day they are appointed and draw pay from the first day of the ges- Sion, although their work has just begun In 1879, according to Mr. Organ, when there was engrossment and enrollment of bills to be done, the committee having charge of the clerical force recommended six clerks for each foree. This recommendation was adopted, but subsequently the House be- came panic stricken over its extravagance and cut down the forces considerably. In this session there are 38 engrossing clerks and 30 enrolling clerks. Mr Organ has been somewhat amused at the talk in the present House about economy, Knowing as well as he does the idea of economy that prevailed 29 years ago, In addition to the 224 House clerks enu- merated yesterday there are 35 committee clerks and several are yet to be appointed. Three chairmen of committees have ap- pointed their sons or daughters to be the clerks of their committees. It is said that one of these, a young man, has never been in Jefferson City since the session opened. Three of the committee clerks are women. Senator Burkhead of the mittee spent the dav in Jefferson City. He came up to look after his bilis. He de- clined ty discues the committee’s work. JURY COMMISSIONERS. Bill Providing for Their Appointment by Court of Appeals. Special to the Post-Disnatch JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Feb. 2.—Sen- ator Drabelle’s bill, providing for the ap- pointment of the jury commissioners of St. Louis and Kansas City by the Court of Appeals instead of the Circuit Court. came up and was sent to engrossment by 18 to 8, An amendment exempting Kansas City was adopted. Senator Mott of St. Louis offered an amendment to give the Governor the ap- pointment instead of the Appellate Judges. This was lost. In closing the debate Sen- ator Drabelle referred to the irregularities in connection with the summoning of juries recently exposed by the Post-Dispatch. He said there would be no necessity for t bill if the city were not controlled by the most corrupt political machine ever known in history. He said if this bill were passed it would be possible to get special juries, every member of which was either presi- dent or secretary of a corporation. JOINED THE REPUBLICANS. Filipinos Vote to Reduce Salary of In- surance Commissioner. Special to fhe Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.,. Feb. 2.—A bill to reduce the salary of the Insurance Com- missioner from $3000 to $2000 and the salary of his assistant from $2000 to $1500, was reported unfavorably by the Committee on Insurance. .The Republican members of the committee submitted a minor.ty report favorable to the bill. After a sharp fight the House adopted the minority re- port by a vote of 89 to 37. This wag an- other demonstration of the power of the Filipinos. They voted with the Republic- ans on the bill. They have announced a policy of reform and retrenchment and took this opportunity of practicing their creed. The vote shows that the Filipinos have increased from the last test vote from 24 to 31. PHELPS KILLED THE BILL. Measure to Reduce Fares on Steam Railway Lines. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 2.~The activity of Col, William H. Phelps and Col. John H. Carroll in the past few days was ex- plained when the House ¢C Ra‘lroads and Internal ieutoramenne fe last night. He was working against the bill to cut railroad fares to 2 cents a mile on main lines and to 3 cents on branch lines. The Colonel was backed up by a delegation of railroad employes. who op- posed the bill on the ground that if it was passed their salaries would be cut. Col. John H. Carroll was present, but did not speak. A speech from him was vnnec- essary, as Col. Phelps had no difficudty in convincing the committee that the bill should be killed. The committee will not report, however, until next Wednesday. RYDER’S BEER BILL. Again the Measure Is Placed Before the Legislature. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Feb. 2.—Gen. “Billy” Ryder’s b’ennial beer bil] providing for a tax on all malt beverages for the improvement of country roads was intro- duced in the House this morn.ng by Repre- sentative Chinn. This bill has been intro- duced into and killed in two decades, Lexow Com- by every Legislature [t all but succeeded two years ago, and “Gen.” Ryder has high hopes for ths session. Representative Macey introduced a bill to abolish the office of fish and game warden. Senator Morton introduced a bill provid- ing that suicide shall not be a defense for the non-payment of life insurance policies Unless it can be proven that the insured contemplated suicide when he took out the insurance, Senator Schweickardt introduced a bill making the breaking into or entering of any boat or railroad car burglary of the second degree. Senator Young introduced a bill asking a home for epileptics and feeble-minded It carries an appropriation of $150, 000, INTERESTED IN REAL ESTATE.

BUSINESS IS REPORTED GOOD. Rush for Steel Plates Continues Large, Sales for Shipbuilding Being Made East and West. NEW YORK, Feb. 2.—The Iron Age, in its weekly review, says: “Reports relative to pools and consolida- tions continue numerous. The feeling is gaining ground that the American Tin Plate Co. is on the eve of consumating the con- trol of the tin bars supply through the pur- chase of the plants of the Shenango Valley Steel Co., the Ohio Steel Co., the Buhl Steel Co., King, Gilbert & Warner and the Wheeling Steel & Iron Co., having also made long-time contracts with the other two plants making tin plate bars in the Pittsburg and Wheeling districts. ‘The sheet mills are working on a con- solidation similar in its lines to that of the Tin Plate Co., and the Western bar iron makers are trying to gather together once more the same elements which once co- operated in the loosely bound old Western Association. “Five of th@ largest car builders are on the eve of fusion, one of the plans be-ng to establish close relations with the prin- cipal steel car building eoncerns. “The cast iron pipe consolidation does not seem to be making headway, although more powerful financ.al interests may yet take a hand in the undertaking. “The wire rod market is in a peculiar po- sition, being now in complete control of the large wire interest, the understanding be.ng that the entire product of the only large independent producer is contracted for. In the smailer branches of the wire inaustry there is much alarm over the future, al- though jt is reported that the requirements of the major:ty of the smailer works are covered for some time to come. “In the p:g iron markets quiet has reigned so far as the Southern makers are con- cerned in the districts in which Northern irons compete, Southern prices are now relatively above the market. Additiona: offers of large contracts of Southern iron for export’ have been made, but have not been met. Only a moderate business is do- ing in the Central West in Bessemer pig, which remains very firm. “The open billet market is naturally re- stricted through the fact that large lines are now controlled by the two consolida- tions who have made their arrangements in some cases for long periods. Pittsburg reports the sale of one lot of 10,000 tons, and Philadelphia notes a 50,000 ton lot. “In the rail trade the only event is the placing of a contract for from 12,000 to 15,000 tons of girder rails by the Metropol- itan Traction Co. with a central mill in Pennsylvania. ‘*"The rush for steel plate continues Some large sales have been made for ship build- ing East and West, and for the same pur- pose large lots of shapes have been placed. Our Philadelphia correspondent notes that the Phenix Iron Co. has taken 5000 tons for a Delaware River ship yard. ‘In structural material some elevated works has been closedin Boston and large amounts tn Chicago. A good deal of build- ing work is also coming up. “Car builders are still ordering heavily in all departments which they call upon for supplies. The Western bar markets are higher, and in the East the makers have established a further advance. “The pipe and tubemakers are very busy. Conflicting reports are current concerning the consolidation, but it looKs as though it were «oming to an issue. The leading mills have ‘done very well financially in re- cent years. ‘“The market is very active in galvanized sheets and prices are higher. ‘“‘In the hoop ‘trade we note a sale for ship- ment to Buenos Ayres of 1000 tons of wool bale ties.”’ LOSS OVER HALF A MILLION. Several Firemen and a Young Woman Severely Injured at a Co- ‘ypbus (O.) Blaze. COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 2.—A few engines are still pumping water on the ruins of last night’s fire, and, although everything seems sheeted with ice, there are lingering evi- dences of fire. The full extent of the fire could not be realized until daylight, and then, while the loss Was severe enough, it was thought to fall slightly behind the figures which had been made up last night, at least $700,000, No detailed statement has yet been made, The number of injured has diminished since first reports, especially the number seriously hurt. All the missing persons have heen accounted for. No lives were lost so far as known and only two persons were seriously hurt, Fireman Jack Welsh and Miss Carrie Johnson, a spectator, A list of the injured and the nature of their injuries follows: Fireman John F. Donohue, by falling debris. Fireman Jack Welsh, taken to hospital. Fireman Otis V. Kilbourne, bruised by falling debris. Fireman Patrick Durcan, arm hurt. Fireman Bob Kerins, knocked from a lad- der and painfully bruised, Miss Carr.e Johnson, badly injured by be- ing run over by a runaway fire truck. The fire byrned half a block of buildings north of the High Street Theater and the Chittenden Hotel, including the six-story Dunlap building and three four-story build- ings belonging to the E. O. Jones estate. The front and rear walls of the four-story buildings. occupied by the Bright Millinery Co. fell outward simultaneously, catching three firemen. ” K. P. Tribunal in Session.

"eho wee ‘oft behind when the show broke up. She was not a sick elephant. Her voracious appetite was largely responsible for the lack of money to pay the salaries of the human members of the troupe. , Her turn consisted principally in step- ping over a man in the ring. She did it well, and was one of the hits of the show. When the man with the money disap- peared Babe was left behind. Her avor- dupols and appetite would have been 6e- rious handicaps to a decamping circus manager. She was never neglected. The management of the Coliseum saw that she was fed. She was worth money. Then the ladies of the Woman’s Humane Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals learned of the sad case of the deserted ele- phant. They set out to alleviate her con- dition at once. Agent Bell was comm!is- sioned to go and take possession of the animal in the name of the Woman's Hu- mane Society. The ladies rented a commodious stable at 2332 Chestnut street. A comfortable bed was made for Babe and a big supply of hay bought to feed her. , "dhe is happy and contented In her new home now. She has nothing to do but eat. She puts away about $3 worth of hay a day. |The Clown Is in the City Hospital as a Pauper Patient and Is Costing | the City 30 Cents a Day. | Edward De Long was the clown in Coop- er’s circus, which disbanded in St. Louis last Saturday. He was left penniless and in debt when the show melted into thin air. More than that, he was a very sick man. He had been ill for a week. All through the St. Louis engagement he had entered the ring night after night feverish and weak. He had sprung jokes and made audiences laugh when he should have been in bed. He had been with the show nearly three ‘ears and took a pride in helping to make it a success. That fs — he suffered and said nothing during the St. Louls engage- ment. At the close of the week he would get money to pay a doctor and buy medi- cine, he thought. But when the week was over the man who should have paid salaries hed disap- ared. To make matters worse, De Long Pad fallen from a pair of stilts only the day before and had undergone a severe ain. "ie was sick before. He was sick and crippled now. He had no home, no Pp to sleep.

From a Staff Correspondent. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.~—President and Mrs. McKinley have inaugurated a dinner regime which will make the White House &s famous socially as it was in the days of Dolly Madison. The great corridor of the Executive Man- sion ig now the State dining room. The table placed in the center is q@ most el«- borate affair 40 feet long. At this table ut 7 guesta are usually seated. The question of seats Is one of paramount im- portance. Mrs. McKinley prefers to sit at the right of the President. This is an “frnovation and causes an entirely new placing of the guests. The task of seating the guests in their proper places according to precedence de. volves upon Assistant Secretary Pruden. He has a wooden model of the table and uses little pegs to represent the guests. Each seat is numbered on the model. When t of guests is in. Mr. Pruden ascer- ine the exact official standing of each n Mage and then begins his aie w @ pegs. n mu ) to his officia rank. His @ seat corresponding in among the daughters of those whose rank is equal to his. The President always carefully inspects the wooden mode! and pegs, and his approv- al must have been given before the cards bearing the names of the guests are Jaid at each plate. Stands Like a Pitcher. Gen. Marsh of Illinois, the champion pool player of the House, has a marked peculiarity in’ debate..He stands in the space in front of his seat, with his left foot pushed out from his right like a ball grtcper preparing to shoot in a swift ball. ® holds his left hand on a level with his chest and twirls his ri the fashion of an old-time windmill in action. Occasionally he brings the two hands together with a loud clap which awakens the snoozers in the chamber. Gen. Marsh is an able man and Knows more about military law and tactics than any other man in the House. He took a prom- inent part in the debate on the Hull im- perial army bill, and because of his per- suasive eloquence did much toward passing the bill, Gen. Marsh wears specs, the kind that Grandma used .o use. and when he is not roomng he flings them back on the top of his head. ht something after Ex-Speaker Grow. Representative Galusha A. Grow, ex- Speaker of the House, takes an active part in the proceedings of the Lower House these days. Although Mr. Grow ts climbing rapidly toward the century mark in life's journey, he is as sprightly as a man of forty, Old-fashioned in every respect, dress, Manners, customs and habits, he is one of the characters of tne House. He R. teen om the Boor of the House nearly’ ev minute during the session. As he sits oper back near the rear of the chamber, wit tilted back, he appears perfectly contented with his lot as a Statesman. Grave Responsibilities. “We are confronted with grave responsi- bilities,’’ is a phrase which is being worked overtime just now. The debate on the treaty in the Senate, and the discussion of the army bill in the House have breught this line of words into tiresome prominence. Every new member who wishes to make an gr eg on his constituency belleves this phrase carries with it an implication that colossal responsibilities are réposed in that member. As a plain matter of fact, the phrase means nothing, especially when used in the sense tn which it is bein used to-day. It has become stereotype and the older members will be glad when it i@ dropped. The President’s Gifts. President McKinley is constantly in re- ceipt of gifts of various kinds from ail parts of this country and Europe. Often- times these presents are of intrinsic value, in which event they are invariably re- turned, unless, of course, the giver happens to be a personal friend of the President. Small favors are generally turned over to one of the charitable insticuiions of Washington. Whenever a present is sent to the White House the President directs that its receipt be noted and the person makin ihe present receives an auto- graph letter of thanks. Senators and Rep- resentatives often tender the President some favor as a mark of réspect and esteem, Representative Howe of n, whe owns @ ®-acre in ¥ j; See i Baa ee Sar had ae a | large box of ‘oranges, the | Howe grove. his arms back over his head and his chair! % o = z = ty 4 ves ; eae ai. “ee , Bass’ He yg “2 # 5 ey Ae af . * eo eS Be MAL * x ~~ “eagpeee of the Because of the extra sweet flavor the oranges have been kept at the, President’s house, If they had been of the | ordinary kind, the White House steward would have dispatched them to a local asylum or almshouse. Platc Is the Real Thing. Robert P, Murphy, an old New York hotel keeper and a man of prominence in Niagara Falls and Buffalo, who has owned large hotels in these places, and owns the Regent in Washington, was chaperoning & party of New York politicians through the Capitol yesterday. The party halted at the Senate gallery and Murphy pointed out the notables. “That’s Platt, as you know, sitting to the left of the Vice-President’s chair in the first row,”’ said he, Of course every- body recognized Platt. “Is he as big a political chief In Wash- ington as he is in New York?’ asked one of the party. “Is he?” queried Murphy, smilingly. “Just wait a moment and see whether or not he is.’’ The Senator had just’ come into the chamber and was crouched down in his seat, wading through a batch of after- noon correspondence, when Senator War- ren of Wyoming, one of the Senate lead- ers. came up, tapped him on the shoulder and conferred with him for several min- utes. Then Vest came over, talked a while and walked away. Allison, who had charge of an appointment bill, which was then under consideration, followed Vest and sat chatting with the New York Senator for more than five minutes. Spooner, Hanna, McMillan and Hoar dropped down in turn a poe Platt seat. u smiled tO Sl Cy ite tae LP as as Bee Pea ; DS ele : and his friends looked at | ner leaving the gallery one little man was heard to say: “Weil. I guess Platt is the ‘real thing.’ “That's what,” said Murphy. And the party then dropped down into the marble room and paid their respects to the big | chief. Name of Hanna’s Bill. When a Post-Dispatch correspondent to- day asked Senator Hanna about the status of the maritime ‘subsidy’ bill, which was so bitterly attacked yesterday, he re- plied, with a smile: | “Don’t call my bill a subsidy bill. It is not dignified. Call it a merchant marine bitl.”’ —_—_-_- Believes in Her Son. Mrs. Grant takes a deep interest in the Senatorial contest in California, and, as stated in the press reports from Sacra- mento yesterday, has sent a telegram of | thanks to every member of the Legislature who has voted for her son. She Is not at all distressed by the bribery stories. Noth- ing could make her believe that Ulysses, | Jr., had done anything dishonorable, and notwithstanding discouraging reports she is confident of his election. —--— Washington Society. Mr. and Mrs. Vanderbilt have been over- whelmed with invitations for the import- ant social functions of this week, and it is certain that their visit to the Capitol, though brief, will be a round of festivity. Count de Cassini and his niece, Miss Mar- rite de Cassini, numerous callers hi Herschell and Sir Wilfrid those to stay y er were the Russian Em ee | pitt Thomas’ son. Murphy knocked Thomas , neck.

TRE BACING QUESTION, LEAGUE OF AMERICAN WHEEL- MEN WILL SOON PASS ON IT. The outlaw riders will not go back to the Leagué of American Wheelmen. They have concluded to refuse any over- tures from the League that may be made. This determination on their part should make the L. A. W. officials breathe all the easier, for it spares them the necessity of a long fight over the question of race con- trol. One week from to-day, at 1@ vidence, R. I., the L. A. W. will hold its Nationgl As- sembly, and then and there the question of cutting away from the racing game for good and all will be argued. ' The line of argument on which the racing faction of the League iz expending its ammunition consists of try.ng to convey the impression that, under the exisiing con- dition, it looks as though the League were retiring under fire and with colors drag- ing. e-While it may appear that the League, in surrendering racing, is admitting defeat, it should also be remembered that three years ago I. B. Potter strongly advocated the divorce from the _ sport by the League, and in the Baltimore National As- sembly the New York Division voted as a unit on a proposed amendment to this ef- fect. What success the League would have if it continued to bother with the sport is problematical. That it might contribute a battle of some pret«nsions is admitted even by the N. C. A. adherents, who, however, do not fear but that it will be a case of the survival of the fittest. The League ‘s not constructed for permanent government of racing control, and its jurisdiction in the past has been considered by many as be- ing a matter of necessity, and not of reali cesire. In England and France the big cycling organizations have nothing to do with rac- ing. and there -s no reason why the same plan could not prevail in the United States. The N. C. is organized solely for the purpose of controlling cycle sport, and a season of racing will demonstrate whether or not this body will prove competent to meet the requirements. Shou'id it fail, then there would be a willing return to League direct:on a year hence. At the meeting at Providence next Wednesday the L. A. W. leaders may 4d- vorce themselves from the racing game for good and then again they may not. | Von DER AHE AND MUCKENFUSS. Those Two Baseball Men Have Busi- ness in Two Courts in One Day. On Thursday morning Chris Von der Ahe appeared as plaintiff in.two suits against B. S. Muckenfuss. In Justice of the Peace Walker’s court he sued Muckenfuss for'six months’ rent of the premises occupied ‘b¥ that individual on St. Louis avenue, and Obtained judgment for $150, the full amo€mft sued for, and possession of the premi@ggs Muckenfuss ig allowed five days to vacate. _In Judge Spencer's division of the Circuit Court Von der Ahe's attorneys asked for the removal ef Muckenfuss as receiver of Sportsman’s Park and Club. The motion was continued by the court until after the sale of the Sportsman’s Park and Club property by the Sheriff, and Muckenfuss was ordered to make a report of his work as receiver up to date. . The motion for a new ‘trial in the case of the Mississippi Valley Trust Company vs. the Sportsman’s Park and Club will be heard by Judge Spencer. on Friday. Mr. Kinnerk, Von ‘der Ahe’s attorney, stated in court that if an appeal was taken to the Supreme Court Von der Ahe would not give bond. FITZ AND JEFFRIES. They Will Soon Come Together Before a New York Club. They say in New York that a fight be- tween Fitz and Jeffries is sure to take place in the verv near future, Jeffries is in New York and his man- ager, Billy Brady, says: “T can bring off that contest here, and will do it if money counts for anything I will pay the highest: price. and that will get it. I see Stuart will give $30,000. Well, that is not enough. He- is not throwing away coin, and if he can afford to pay that in Carson I can go him one better here in New York. If Sharkey doesn’t come to time I have a man who will, and Fitz has declared him the second on the list. Jeffries is after the lanky fellow, and he will not rest until he gets Bob into the ring.”’ Signs of Decay. It now begins to look as though there will be no racing at Oakley next spring. Yester- day the old mule team that formerly worked ‘n the harrows at the Cincinnati , track was sold to the management of the. Newport track. Oakley’s sprinkling cart has been purchased by the Latonia track. —Cincinnat! Enquirer. Madison Turf Exchange.

IT 1S NOW UP TO FITZ SHARKEY HAS COVERED THE CHAMPION’S MONEY. Tom O'Rourke, Sharkey’s manager, has covered Pitzsimmons’ forfeit of $2500. The Sailor's manager also announces that his man will meet Fitz before any old club and for any amount. — The champion was at Saginaw, Mich., last night with his theatrical company. He promised to quit the road as soon as his $2000 forfeit was covered. So all that is necessary to bring about a meeting be- tween him and Sharkey is for Fitz to keep his word. The action of O'Rourke will be a bitter disappointment to big Jim Jeffries, the Ca:iforn.a pugilist who arrived in New York Monday morning and who then an- nounced h:s wilil.ngness to meet any one of the big fellows on any terms that suited them. Despite the action of O’Rourke and the present dicker betwecn Sharkey and Fitz, Jeffries is determined to get on a match with Sharkey. Of the Sailor he says: “I am the only man who ever got a de- cision over Sharkey. I gave him the worst beating in his life, and I am sure I can give him the same dose of medicine if we ever meet again. Fear on his part alone If Sharkey ever hopes to become cham- pion he will have to fight me. because the ; he will likely face is “Mysterious” Smith, records show that I am a better man than he is, and the public will never consider his pugilistic aspiration seriously urtil he has wiped out the blot of defeat recorded against him by me at San Francisco over a year ago. Sharkey’s bluff will not clear him of the stain of defeat, so he had bet- | ter make up his mind and stop fooling. : “Now as to my plans with Fitzsimmons. | I have beaten Sharkey, who claims greatest consideration from Fitz, and I was the first man to cover the champion’s money. I have,also beaten a man whom Fitzsimmons considered the greatest fAght- er in the world and whom he refuse to fight. I refer to Peter Jackson. Sharkey or no man living should refuse to meet me. “All fair-minded men will admit that there are extenuating circumstances in my showing with Armstrong last August. My inability to knock Armstrong out was oc- casioned by a broken hand. Notwithstand- ing this disadvantage in being unable to use my right hand and that Armstrong fought entirely on the defensive, I clearly bested him Sullivan met with a similar accident in Cincinnati several years ago, | when he was champion, and police inter- | ference alone saved him from a knockout; and yet when his arm mended and he was himself again he was stiil the best man of his day.” Corbett says he when they meet a in a six-round bou are like pie crust. McCoy must have been hitting the pipe recently. The other day the Kid told how he had challenged Fitz. The champion says he has not heard a word from the Kid. Eddie Lally and Billy Lambert are get- ting in great shape for their 15-round bout, to take place before the Business Mens Gymnasium, Saturday night. Prof. Mike Mooney, who $s the master of ceremonies, and who will referee the Lally-Lambert bout has arranged for two or three #X- round curtain-raisere to take place before the main event. Friday night Joe Frede of St. Louis and Jimmy Murray of Cincinnati meet at Hot | Springs :n a 15-round bout, Pete Nolan,man- | ager of the West End Club, who is backing Prede., and a lot of other St. Lou's sports, accompanied Frede to Hot Springs last night. On the night of Feb. 18 the winner of the Frede-Murray go will meet Jack, Lewis, Chicago's crack 135-pound man, In the rooms of the West.

This will be surprising, because only a short time ago Lavigne declined to meet anybody above 133 pounds. When he fought Burge he (Lavigne) was only about 135 pounds and that wes just as heavy as he coul get. He often fought below 130 pounds, and now that he comes out with a desire to meet anybody at.142 pounds means that he has increased in weight considerably during the last few months, There have been cases like this, but not many that are strictly identical. Lavigne has placed him- self in a class where he will meet some very tough men, and one of the first that This boxer has been doing great things lately, and certainly he will be ready to make a match with Lavigne at the weight named.

The Expensive and — Exquisite Toy Made for Peter the Great, De Anictes, ‘‘Holland and Its People.” On the ground floor of the museum of The Hague there is a ‘royal cabinet of curlosities,"’ which con tains, among a great variety of objects from China, Japan and the colonies of Holland, some precious historical relics. One very curious object ip ~ museum Is a case opening in front like a enpboard, and representing in the minutest particulars fpe interior of a rich man’s house at Amsterdam in the begiuning of the eighteenth century. The czar, Peter the Great, during his sojourn at Amsterdam, had given to a rich burgher at the place the com- mission for this toy house, intending to carry it to Russia as a memorial of Holland. The rich burgber, who was named Brandt, did the thing like a ve Dutchman, slowly and well.

W.—The Kentucky Rosebud who is to meet Johnnie Richie before the West End Club on the night of February 11 has met George Dixon, the present champion light- weight, three times. In their first two boute they fought four rounds to a draw. In thelr third meeting, an exhibition at Philadelphia, after the Rosebud had knocked Dixon down and nearly out in the second round the police stepped in and stopped further proceedings, so that no de- cision was rendered, These three were the only times these men have met. The Situation at Cleveland. Says the Cleveland Plain Dealer: “There are some followers of the baseball situa- tion who think that the National League | will not dare overlook this city for fear of the footing they would give a rival inet!- tution by so doing. These persona figure that the League will keep a team here at any cost, just to keep the city In Its grasp. If, however, the National League mag-. nates figure that they can put a jot of left- . over, back-numbers in this city In the jace of the popular players who have been | ere of late, the League will find rather expensive undertaking.

Bet there was one great fault; the house cost 120,000 francs ($24,000).

Ina comparative statement of the clerical forces employed . for the ngesegt aud two preyious revising sessions of the State House of Representatives the Post-Dispatch Jefferson City correspondent shewed yesterday that there has been-an enor- mous increase in the legislative expenses. For the session of 1879 the total number of House clerks was 27; for that of 1889 it was 126, and for the present session it is 224. The daily expense will hardly fall below $700 a day. The enormous increase in the clerical force cannot be ac- counted for on reasonable ground. It can only be charged to extravagance «fa most objectionable character, because it rep- resents merely increased spoils for Representatives. The mem- bers of the House have steadily increased clerical places in order to provide for their friends and relatives at the expense of the people. - It is idie to talk of economy while this shameful condition exists. If the pruning Knife is not ruthlessly applied the pres- ent Legislature will stand convicted of plundering the State Treasury. oo Small accounts are likely to be withdrawn from Chicago banks, as the Windy’s bankers now chargea dollar a month on all deposits not exceeding $500. ; a re TAX LAWS AND THEORIES. Every citizen, especially every tax-payer, is interested in the question of assessing quasi publie corporations raised by Attorney-General Crow and Mr. John J. McCann. Assessor Frederick and Mr. Charles Nagel testified last June that real estate in St. Louis was assessed at about its cash Value. But the most that can be got out of the cor- porations is a beggarly percentage. They pay what they please, as it appears by the evidence brought out. This evasion would not be possible if the State Board of Equalization performed its duties properly. As Mr. McCann States it, the law is ignored and a “theory” set up as a guide. It would be interesting to know just what this, theory is, wherein it differs from the law, and by what authority the Board substitutes it for the law. A Board of Equalization which does not equalize, which merely deepens and emphasizes the inequality it finds, would seem to be a uscless if not a mischievous body. ooo It is certainly ridiculous to suppose that Missouri cannot constitutionally aid in erecting World’s Fair buildings in St. Louis, when she has alfea ly taken part in a World's Fair in Chicago. woe MR. GIBSON’S SUGGESTION, In Wednesday's Post-Dispatch Mr. C. E. Gibson suggested @ way by which State aid could be extended to the World's Fair without waiting for a change of the State Constitution. The suggestion was that the State Legislature appropriate the necessary money “for a public purpose, beneficial to the citize:.>> — a a Mr. Hanna’s idea that a subsidy bill should be called a merchant marine billis a pretty touch of humor. There is one man, however, who will never laugh at Mr. Hanna's jokes, His name is John Sherman. Gen. Shafter’s benevolent scheme for killing off half the Filipinos would doubtless speedily convince the survivors that we are strong and humane, and that we are working for their advancement alone. —— -——s \=_— = * ———— oa POST-DISPATCH SNAP SHOTS.

THE CYNIC. No man ever laid up a cent as a result of letting his temper get the best of him. To'a boy every guest means that the pie will have to be divided into that many more pieces. No man has to work as hard to get he wife as he —— he has to while his love is a new thing. A boy would rather go to places with his father than with his mother because it is easier to get lest from his father. All a woman’s prayers to reform a man will do no good if she lets him know ee she thinks he is bad enough to be praye for. After‘a man gets old the only kind - good luck he has is to wake up from a ba dream and be thankful that it was not true.

Disguisting as a drunken man always is, he is doubly so when reeling through the streets on the Sabbath day. The working people who can attend the theaters but one night in the week must find Saturday evening, with its opportunity for sleep Sunday morning, far better than Sunday night.

If your baby has sald original and funny things, as only bright babies can, they will be acceptable to this department. BABY’S STOMACH.—The baby’s stomach is very small in proportion to its size, and the intestinal digestion very rapid. There- fore, during the first few months of its life, it takes very little food at a time. If by any chance the stomach is overloaded, nature resists, and the contents are s8.m- ply thrown up. It is important, then, that a mother should know that when milk comes up fermented, just as the child has swallowed it, the stomach has taken more than it can hold, and there need not be necessarily any difficulty with the food. Besides, it is a fact that the liver, which is very large in proportion to the size of the child, sometimes presses against the stomach, if the baby ts laid on the left side, just after nursing; and this compression may cause vomiting; so it is wise always to have a new-born baby, indeed any child not large enough to turn itself, laid first on its right side.to sleep. This makes room for the stomach, and prevents any pres- sure upon the heart. CONSTIPATION IN CHILDREN Is more effectually relieved»by persistent massage of the abdomen than by medicine, which seldom cures the condition. In rubbing be- gin low down on the right side, rub with firm yet gentle pressure upward, then across the abdomen and down the left side for fifteen minutes, morning and evening. A little warm oil may be used in the rub- bing with good effect. TEETHING.—During the process of den- tition there is a sympathetic disturbance through the whole organism. Many times the nervous irritation causes a diarrhea; but as long as the appetite continues, and ne indication of disease appears except frequent evacuations, such discharge from the bowels is salutary, being nature's ef- fort to relieve the system of undue pres- sure. Careful observation has shown that very many times when children have had a teething diarrhea suddenly checked, ecze- ma has resulted, which has made the baby | ture his chance ee A fh ‘ A ‘ A ~~ ~ " and ren- an eye-sore to mother and friends little one. dered life itself a burden to the Bright Things From Babies. “Why are you running so fast, Vernie?”’ asked a teacher of a small pupil. “That's only the first bell.” “Jennie said it was the last bell,”” replied Vernie, “and that pews morning it was ringing before the ret.” “Bobby,” said his mother, “go on and see if papa has succeeded in getting the baby to sleep.”” A few moments later Bobby re- turned and said: “‘No, I don’t think he’s trying to put it to sleep.”’ “Why not?" asked hig mother. ‘‘Because he’s singing, was the reply. A 6-year-old urchin accidentally cut his shoe with a knife, and his father proceeded to scold him at great length for his care- lessness. The little fellow listened patiently for a time, then looking up at his father, said: “Papa, if you don’t stop talking so much about it you'll get me mad, too. “Remember the Maine.” Cecile is just 6 years old and has a little brother, Doniel, who is 4.

THURSDAY—ST. —_ POST - = PATCH—FEBRUARY 2, 1899 T'S CLEVER RUSE, BOW THE SENATOR SAVED A BOY’S REPUTATION. TWO PIECES OF SILVER COIN. Li.wyer Used Them to Confuse a Wit- ness and Kept His Client Out of Prison. NEW story of United States Senator George G. Vest of Missouri, show- A ing how he saved a poy’s reputation by a clever ruse, is told by the Jefferson City Tribune, as follows: “It was about.thirty years ago. The de- pot of the Missouri Pacific Railroad at Smithton, a smal! station in Pettis County, fifty-six miles west of Jefferson City, was burned. In the building was loeated the office of the agent of the railroad com- pany. In the office were the usual office furniture and a large iron safe. All the waluables belonging to the company in the custody of the agent were kept in that safe. Although the contents of the safe were not destroyed, some of them were badly dam- aged by the cxcessive heat. It so happened the sealing wax, for office use, was in close proximity and above the money. The heat was so excessive that it melted and ran Gown on the money, vne 10 cent shinplaster —no silver in circulation then—particularly having a corner burned off by the wax dropping on it. The burned money was re- tained by the agent and consigned to the money drawer in the new office. A few months after the filre the new office of the agent was robbed. Suspicion pointed to a young fellow who had made the office of the agent a lounging place, and to con- firm that suspicion. it was discovered that the young man had disappeared. A posse headed by the township constable started to hunt him. He was overtaken some miles east of Smitnton, toward Otterville. He was arrested and searched. The money found on him was taken to the agent for 4dentification, who had no trouble in so doing, when a i0-cent shinplaster with one corner which had been burnt was shown him. with some of the sealing wax still adhering to it. Of course his guilt was un- deniable, and the following day was fixed for his preliminary hearing. “The boy’s father was a man who had | accumulated a goodly sum of this world’s goods, and had pride enough for his child’s reputation to put forth every effort he could to save the lad from incarceration and the family from disgrace. The father went to Sedalia and to one of the best attorneys in the city to retain him to de- fend his son to the end the boy.could he cleared of the impending charge, which Yooked as if it could be easily fastened upon him. The attorney, who has long since moved from Sedalia to another part of the State. was prejudiced against justice’s tri- b@hals, and he did not care £0-pracyice, in one if it could be avoided. In due time the attorney appeared at Smithton before Esquire Moore, now deceased. It was then learned by the attorney the correct status of the case—how public sentiment was un- animous regarding the boy’s unquestioned guilt. The Sedalia lawyer secured a con- tinuance of the case to another day, and returned home as ‘mad as a March hare,’ saying: “The boy stands already convicted in the minds of the-whole community, and I could do nothing else but continue the case.” This he told the father, who was #orrowinz at the predicament that con- franted tbe. boy. he father also went to _ Sedalia, and implored G. G. Vest, who even shat time had a semi-national reputation, to go to the rescue of his son. e finally Succeeded in inducing Vest to appear in the trial, although the case seemed a hope- less one. The day of the preliminary ar- rived. The people of Smithton and vicinity flocked to the hearing until the little court- room was packed to suffocation, it having been currently reported that Vest would defend the suspect. “The trial was commenced and the agent of the railroad company swore positively to the identity of the 10-cent paper money, which he identified by the burned corner mand the eealinzg wax adhering. Nothing -e@ould shake him in his perfect identifica- tion of the shin-plaster in question. The money was on the table between the coun- ty attorney and the boy’s defender, and when the court took a recess for dinner, Mr. Vest took the -money into his posses- e'on for eafe-leeping. The dinner hour was golden moments for Vest. Mr. Vest se- cured several 10-cent shin-plasters from a friend in a store hard by. By comparing he soon found one the counterpart of the one said to have been etoien. A piece of red sealing wax and a candle were brought into requisition and his purpose soon ac.- complished, After dinner when court opened the denouement came. The hearing of the evidence against the lad was re- sumed and the agent of the railroad, who was the prosecuting witness, was cross- examined by Mr. Vest. The witness was interrogated: ‘Was. there any other money on the boy when arrested, besides this 10- ae: that you could positively iden- v7 “Witness: ‘No, sir; but I am certain of that 10-cent piece (referring to the one with the corner burned) and I can identify that at any time and place.’ ‘Vest (opening his right hand, in which Was a 10-cent piece): ‘Are you sure that is the same piece of money you had in your office when it was burglarized, and the one und on the defendant?’ *“Witness: ‘Yes, sir.’ “Vest (opening his left hand without changing the money): ‘Are you sure that is the same identical piece of money ?’ Witness (nonplussed and confused): ‘Yes, that is the same piece and I know it by the burned corner and the red sealing wax.’ Vest (again opening his right hand): *Can there be any doubt about it?’ Witness (very much eurprised and look- in, closer): ‘There is no doubt in my mind.’ ris mode of cross-examination was con- tinued for some moments, when Mr. Vest Oo ed both hands, exhibiting both pieces of Money, one the counterpart of the other @nd asked the witness: ‘Which of these two pieces of money was in your office when it was robbed, and which dia you find on the person of defendant when arrested”? By this time the witness wae completely dumfounded, when he stammered out an answer: ‘Il cannot swear to that with any degree of certainty being correct,’ he re- lied, in tones that denoted discomfort his Was the only witness the State had, and he fa‘ling to identify the money, a mo- tion Was made by Mr. Veet for the dis- charge of the defendant, and in a few min- . Mites the boy walked out of the courtroom free, while the enthusiastic crowd pees three cheers for Vest, in which the old Jus. tice of the Peace joined. Mr. Vest took the father aside and told him to send the boy out of the State at once, as a grand jury might take the matter up.

F all Rhode Island were one cotton field, its climate and soil most favorable to the crop and its cultivation the best that man can devise, it could not begin to furnish raw cotton for the mills of Robert Knight, the cotton king of the world. Robert Knight is 73 years old, short, stout, ruddy faced, crowned and whiskered by hair of the purest white. As a child of 8 he worked his cruel 14 hours daily in one of the Sprague mills fo? $1.2 per week. He worked his way through the factory and into the office, and in a few years was given a chance to buy half the factory for $40,000 on credit. The next year he and his partner cleared $8000. Other fat years followed. In two years Mr. Knight became sole owner of the fac- tory and formed a partnership with an eld- er brother, the late B. B. Knight. When the great house of Sprague went down the Knights succeeded to their manu- facturing supremacy, but not to the errors of extravagant display which had led to the Sprague downfail. On Jan. 1 of the present year Robert Knight became sole owner—his brother having died ont Year —-ot 21 mills, contain- ing upward of 000 spindles 12,000 looms, em oxing between 5000 and 6000 eratives an rectly or indirectly furnishing the means of livelihood for 25,000 persons. Until three years ago when he accom- i his invaiid wi few ¥ Mr. Knigh oral , ere visited as regularly and in- | street, Vv yet ty.” tely as those within a nalt- | spected ny minu , e. . me night is the type of man who has no interest in life except the enlargement of his business and the accumulation of wealth. Fifteen villages owe to him their existence; 5000 employes, of both sexes and of all ages, housed in nearly 2000 cottages that he owns, look to him not only for their employment, but for their merchan- dise, their schools, the support of their churches and for every need of thei! j Ss. Oey cok of these villages there is but one industry. All the processes of life are timed to the factory whistle; the priest, the doctor, the merchant exist but to serve the needs of the hurrying operatives, whose political opinions are weighed out to them with their sugar and tea at the company store. To sell the product of these peoples daily toil there are agencies in New York, Philade:phia and masten. as well as the , tce in Providence. OE tes exceedingly is the cotton kingdom of Knight. It does not run north from Providence except in a single in- stance, the Clinton mill of Woonsocket. There lies the domain of the Goddards, whose holdings are only second to those of Knight, and who, with him, fix the price of cotton goods in these United States. West of Providence, the Cranston Dyeing, Bleaching and Printing Works are Mr. Knight's property; In Providence Itself the Grant Mill. in Massachusetts the villages and mills of Manthaug, Hebronville, Dodge- ville and Readville. , But the heart of the kingdom is the Paw- tux Valley, southwest of Providence. Pontiac is the first village and the lowest, then come Natick. River Point, where the two branches of the Pawtuxet unite, and Arctic. The next village. Centreville is a Lapham stronghold; Lipp!tt, _Fiskville, Jackson and Coventry and the Whiterock Mills ane geet complete the realm of Kin rt. Each of the#e villages is like the other~ ' mill, ts w ‘ - 7? Swedish; the same ‘“‘company store, same absorption in one common task. ; Yet there is a variety, well expressed In | superiatives. | The Natick Mill, for instance, is the largest in the world. Walk around it once and you will have traveled more than half a mile. It is seven stories high, contains 100.000 spindles and 3200 looms, and gives employment to 1300 operatives under one roof. In all the mills use 55,000 bales of cotton. The 30,000,000 yards of cloth they weave in a single year would make a white bicycle track more than two-thirds of the way about the earth. WINGATE ON ALGER. The General Says the Secretary Should Be Removed. NEW YORK, Feb. 2.—In a speech last night Gen. George W. Wingate, a Civil Ww veteran, said: “Tt is the greatest disgrace ane saat dis- grace falls on the shoulders of the Secre- tarv of War and the man who kept the Secretary of War in his place, when the accounts of the state of affairs in the va- rious camps had been pusmenes in the newspapers. He should have een re- red then.”’ i es the course of his address Gen.

Tears were in his eyes and he was go nervous he could not maintain one posi- tion a minute. His hands trembled as though he had palsy and his voice was husky. Stecker is about 38 years old. He is a large man, fairly well dressed, and his con- versation indicates he has had many edu- cational advantages and has lived with cul- tured people. He has defk hair, a brown mustache. blue eyes that were inflamed from much weeping and loss of sleep.

Bill Designed to Prevent Tenants and Farm Hands From Breaking Their Ccntracts. Special to the Post-Dispatch. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Feb. 2.—Every cot- ton planter in Arkansas is now engaged in securing labor for the operation of his Plantation the coming year. There is a great deal of railroad building going on in Arkansas and a heavy draught for labor has been made upon the cotton plan- tations in the State. Hundreds of negroes who have been working on the cotton farms in this vicinity have deserted their crops and accepted employment with con- tractors now engaged .n_ grading the Choctaw road. Many plantations are al- most entirely deserted. and are without hands to pick the cotton that:is now going to waste in the fields. The majority ol those who have abandoned the cotton patches are in debt to the planters, and to prevent in future the violat.on of the labor- er’s contract w.th the farmer the latter has ~ gmt to the Legislature for protec- on. A number of cotton planters in this sec- tion held a meeting -in Little Rock the Other day and agreed upon a bill to be pre- sented to the Leg.slature which they be- lieve if enacted into law will enable them to hold the negroes to the contract they make with them for their services. The bill. was introduced to-day in the Senate by Senator Martin of Jefferson County. It provides that if any one shall directiy or ind.rectly assist a laborer or tenant in leaving his employer or the place before the expiration of his contract of em- ployment or tenancy, or before the crops have been gathered upon which advances have been made; or tor which rents are due. or while the laborer or tenant is .n- debted to his employer or landlord without his consent he shail be liable to such land- ness that m be due. Everyone who. em. ploys. such laborer is required, according to the provisions of the bil, to pay the lJand- lord or tenant all indebtedness due by the tenant or laborer. Some of the most endear cotton planters in the State are ere in the interest of the bill, and are confident that it will go through both houses and become a law before the end of the week. The Legislature yesterday paved the way for the erection of a new Capitol build.ng when the resolution introduced in the Sen- ate by Senator South, and by that body adopted, was favorably acted upon in the House by a vote of 5d to 34. A joint committee of five members of the Senate and. seven members of the House will be appointed by the President of the Senate and Speaker of the House to con- sider the question of building a new Capi- tol. They are to report as soon as consist- ent, either by bill or otherwise. Speaker Vandeventer announced as the committee to visit and inspect the State University at Fayetteville, Messrs. Wood, Turner and Rogers. By a unanimous vote the Rector anti- trust bill was passed. The bill imposes severe penalties on all members of trusts, pools and combinations organized to con- trol or regulate prices. One of the penal- ties is the forfeiture of charters of guilty corporations. The Attorney-General and Prosecuting Attorney shall conduct all prosecutions. The _ prosecuting attorneys shall receive for their compensation one- fourth of the penalty collected; The re- mainder goes to the schoo] fund. The Serate this morning adopted a con- current resolution providing for the pay- ment of expenses incurred by the State in the ee ~e sae Senator Smith introduced a bill to the office of Commissioner of Mines. poo factures and Agriculture and placing the books, exhibits, etc., of the office with the State Land Commissioner. A similar bill has been introduced in every Legisla- ture since the creation of the office 1z years ago, but alWays met with defeat. The House spent the entire morning in discussing the bill providing for the con- solidation of State and National elections. The bill was favorably reported to the House by the Committee on Elections and is being supported by Democrats from the hill counties. The opposition consist of members who fear negro domination in case that after consolidation Congress should re-enact the Federal election law. Representative Wood of Lee introduced a bill authorizing the board of directors of the St. Francis Levee district to issue bonds amounting to $750,000 to build levees.

Widow Met Her Brother Under Pe- culiar Circumstances. Mrs. Delia Mintcr, a destitute widow with two children, while applying for aid at the Fourth District Police Station Wednesday met her brother, Thomas Klein, who had Come to clatM@ a horse e&nd waton, and whom she had not seen for a year. They had formerly lived togé@ther, but she married against his wishes and so all communication was broken off between them.

A reconciliation was effected and the brother and sister left the station together. MACHINES AGAINST MEN. Molders Strike at the American Steel Company’s Works. The old question of the use of labor- saving machinery is again the cause ofa strike, this time at the American Steel Co.’s works at Granite City, Il. An automatic machine was introduced to mold certain steel pieces which had before always been made by handwork. It re- quired no skill to run the machine, and so the helpers were put on them. The molders claim that these helpers should be paid regular molders’ wages, as the work of the machines is classéd as molding. Superintendent McRoberts refused to change the schedule of wages and so 125 of the moiders quit work. The difference of the wages amounts to about 25 cents a day. All the saloons of the Little town have been closed to prevent the idle men from becoming intoxicated. Manter—Bonson. Chatles R. Manter. formerly of st. Lonis, now FS neral ugent of the Chicago.

HATTIE MAFFRAY FAINTED WHILE BATHING HER BABY. ee THE TINY INFANT DROWNED. Mother Almost Insane From Grief and the Shock of Her Child’s Strange Death. Mrs. Hattie Maffray of 5329 Cabanne ave- nue was the unconscious agent of the death of her own little baby Wednesday afternoon. As a consequence of the part that she played in the dreadful tragedy she is now almost insane with grief, and her physician fears she may not survive the terrible shock. As was her daily custom, Mrs. Maffray prepared a bath Wednesday afternoon for her infant, which was born two and a half months ago. She stripped the tiny cherub and after caressing it and talking to it as only a mother can to her babe, she leaned over the bath tub to place it gently in the water. Just then Mrs. Maffray, who had not been well since the birth of the child, became Cizzy. The room seemed to whirl wildly about her and her mind beeame confused. She felt the baby slip from her grasp, as she lapsed into unconsciousness and fell to the floor. She does not know how long she lay there. When she recovered her senses, the baby was lying In the water, completely submerged. She hurriedly lifted it from the tub and ran from the room screaming for help. Her cries were answered by the servant girl, who immediately summoned Dr. Frank E. Rohan and other neighbors. Dr. Rohan made a hurried examination of the child and found that its lungs and stomach were filled with water. e re- sorted to all the skill known to medical science to restore the life of the child. But all his efforts were unsuccessful and he finally pronounced the child dead. While Dr. Rohan was working with the baby, Mrs. Maffray became ‘so wild with -grief and sorrow that it was necessary to cal] in her family physician, Dr. Harry R. Hall, to administer to her. She shrieked and madly demanded that her child be re- stored to her. When informed that it was dead she fainted again. When she re- vived she was so weak that Dr. Hall said that only the most careful nursing would save her life. Mrs. Maffray’s husband is a traveling salesman and is now on a trip through IIli- nois for a Chicago firm. His wife did not know Where he could be found, but tele- grams were sent to a dozen different points oa the hope that one of them would reach m, AT THE PLAYHOUSES. ee “Way Down East,” with its life-like snowstorm and other realistic features, has pleased the visitors to the Olympic this week. In the audience Wednesday night was Prof. Bill Clark, the “Belfast Chick- en,’’ who has a great admiration for pas- toral plays. He discoursed eloquently be- tween acts upéa the merits of the produc- tion, and confided to an acquaintance that one of the women in the cast was the wid- ow of his old friend, John C. Heenan, Kathryn Osterman and Anna Belmont, the admirab!l censtructed beauties of ‘Brown's In own,” are sisters. The re- port that Miss Belmont is to leave the company is not true.

Dr. Henson Failed to Arrive— Services to Be Held at Cote Bril- liante Presbyterian Church. Inspiration for increased activities for the coming year will. it is believed, result from the celebration of the eighteenth birthday of the Christian Endeavor move- ment to be observed Thursday’ night at Cote Brilliante Presbyterian Church under Judson A. Stanion’s leadership. On Feb. 2, 1881, there met in the home of the Rev. F. E. Clarke, then pastor of the Congregational Church, Willeston, Me., & company of young people, most of whom had recently united with his church, as the result of special revival services. The ob- ject of the pastor in calling this company together was to see what were the best means of interesting them in the work of the church so that they might not only give, but also receive that which should be the mést helpful to all concerned. As a result of this conference 45 of those present sign- éd a constitution and by-laws of an_organ- ization to be known as the Young People’s Soriety of Christian Endeavor. An account of this meeting was published in one of the religious weeklies, and soon other pastors caught on to the idea, and formed similar organizations, until there dre to-day scattered over the world nearly 50,000 soc.eties, 3500 of which are jn Canada, nearly 10,000 in foreign countries, and the balance in the Unitel States. There are over 100 societ.es floating on the geas, many of which are in the Navy of the United States, the good work of which was shown in a signal manner during the war with Spain. The membership of these al- lied societies now number over 3,250,0000. The annual conventions of the movement are noteworthy in the history of the re- ligious world. Just now great prepara- tions are being made for the one next July in Detroit, while echos every now and then come from over the sea telling what English friends are doing in preparing to entertain the hosts that will invade the city of London in 1900. W. H. McClain is organizing a party of Missouri excursionists. The birthday of this growing army {s al- ways fittingly celebrated in all parts of the world, and it was the intention of the St. Louis Union to have a grand rally this evening, with an appropriate address by the Rev. Ienson of Chicago, but somehow or other the good doctor failed to make connection, and the idea at the last moment had to be abandoned. Thereupon the Society of the Cote Bril- liante Presbyterian Church, led by Presi- dent Frank B. Williams, decided that the occasion should not go by unnoticed as far as the members were concerned, and so they arranged for a district mass-meeting in their chureh for Thursday evening, in- viting all the societies in the neighborhood to attend. This invitation has been ac- cepted by the Hope, Fountain Park and *lymouth Congregational; Wagoner Place, Cook Avenue and Brank Memorial Presby- terian and Beuleh Christian congregations. The paetors. of these churches will be €3-| ent, a8 Well as George W. Lubke, Jr.. Pres-' ident of the Union; Wells H. Huributt, Vice-President; Walter Brown, President of the Central Division; Miss Christine Cameron, Secretary of the Sixth District; ex-State President C. A. Forse, and many other well-known workers. Special musi- cal features under the direction of Mr; R, O. Boit will include singing by the Evan- gel-cal Male Chorus and by a quartette composed of Misses Vinnie Gray and Clara Starck, A. L. Starck and Floyd Norwine. WELLINGTON ADAMS’ FAMILY. ! - ry \ —_ oy se Benefit Will Be Given to Relieve Them, From Distress. A musicale at Henneman’s Hall] on Olive Street will be given Friday night under the direction of Miss Outer of $515 Pine street for the relief of the family of the late Dr. Wellington Adams. It was krown that the death of the fa- mous electrician and inventor had left his family in straitened circumstances; for his fortune had been devoted in the course of long litigation respecting the rights of his inventions. The condition of his finances, however was much worse than had been expected and Mrs. Adams and her six children were left wholly dependent on relatives. Four of the little ones were sent to an orphan asylum; the other two Mrs. Adams kept with her at the home of her mother, Mrs Alice Slayback of $27 Laurel avenue. Miss Outer expects to realize some hun- dred dollars from the benefit, as over 400 cards have been sent out. The entertainment will begin at 8:30 o’clock and will consist of vocal and in- strumental sclections. Married the Girl. James A. Breslin of 2934 Cass avenue, who Was sentenced to two years in the peniten- tiary last week for betraying Agnes G. Rogers of 2917 Cass avenue, married the Rogers girl to save himself.

That was before the war, but it holds good just the same. I see Mr. Cleve- land has said something about ‘Kiiling men in the interest of civilization. There is no necessity for him to become sarcastic over it, for civilization is an instument by which men have been killed, Just as they have been killed by electricity or suffocated y gas. It ia not the fault of the civiliza- tion but of the people who get in its way. So far as acquiring an undesirable citizen is concerned, we have several millions of people in this country now whom, if we did not have, we elould not want.

Martin; 82° Years Old, Was One of the Heroes of the Cholera Scourgs of 1849. cat- Fifteen years ago Dr. David B. Martin, was one of the most prominent physicians in St. Louls and had one of the largest practice in the State. To-day he is living in two small rooms at 914 Montgomery street and is in a destitute condition. Dr. Martin is & years old and on him depends thé support of his blind sister, who is 77 years old, The police were notified of, s the poor condition of Dr. Martin anda sister and when an offteer made an investi- ation he found them in a pitiable plight. hey have little food and hardly any fuel. They are deserving people. Dr. Martin was born in St. Louis County about seven miles from St. Charles, an when a boy used to drive wagon loads of wheat to the Chouteau Mil! that stood on the edge: of the Choufeau pond, near the old Union depot site. He remembers St. Louis before the Indians had left this part ot the country. In 1845 he started to prac tice medicine and after he graduated had a smal} practice in the surrounding country. He was a resident of St. Louis when the Mound City was almost entirely destroyed by fire. That Was On the night of March 17, 1849.

AT. TWELFTH STREET BRIDGE, His Defenses Were Fruitless and He Took Refuge in Flight From the Neighborhood. Two women lay in wait for a man and when he reached the north end of the Twelfth*’street bridge at 8 o'clock Thurs- day morning they sprang upon him and ad- ministered a severe trouncing. The affair occurred withing a block of Police Headquarters, but all of the parties to the fight vanished before the officers were aware that anything was amiss. The women were neatly dressed. One was perhaps 30 years old. She was tall and slender and walked with dignified step. Determination was depicted in every move- ment. She wore a gray skirt and dark plush. cape. nh her head Me a smMaii walking hat. She wore n@véeil ha it cétld be seen that her face as pale and her eyes large, black and flashing. The other woman was several years younger. She was short of stature and ap- peared more ill at ease, She watched her companion and followed tn her lead. The smatier woman Was a blonde. She wore a black skirt, a long fur cloak and a large ace hat, beattifuNy supplied with black tips. As the figure of a medium sized man ap- peared on the bridge, walking north at a rapid pace, and smoking a cigar, the two women stepped off the bridge and waited behind a bulletin board. He was evidently unsuspicious, for he walked along easily and rapidly. He was well dressed. His shoes were polished, his trousers newly creased and his stylish overcoat was close- ly buttoned. He wore a black derby hat. As he stepped from the bridge the two women sprang from their place of conceal- ment. The taller was in front. Her eyes were blazing and it was evident she was trying to suppress her rage. “I’ve got you now, you villain,”’ she ex- claimed as she reached for him. If she had a weapon she did not display it, but she struck out with her fist as though to knock him down. The smaller woman was not far behind and she, too, doubled up her fist, ready to do her part. The man did not offer to strike back. He did not appear to be afraid of their blows, and tried to persuade them to desist. Seeing that his appeals were in vain, and that he must either resist or run, he took refuge in flizht. He ran into a near-by saloon. The women followed him to the door. Then they turned about and boarded a south-bound Tower Grove car. The man asked the bartender for a place to hide. He ran on into the rear yard and went through a gate into an alley and then ran up to Spruce street and proceeded on toward the Cupples district. No one who saw the encounter knew any of the participants. WHY THEY SOLD I. finger Bros. Explain Why They Dis- posed of Their Entire Stock of Fall and Winter Cloaks to Siegel- Hillman Dry Goods Company. The sensational announcement that Singer Bros. had closed out their entire stock of Fall and. Winter garments to Stegel-Hill- | man Dry Goods Co. has created quite a commotion in trade circles. After search- ing through the big eight-story Singer Building, corner of Ninth and Lucas, Mr. Singer was found on the fourth floor in the midst of an enormous stack of Spring goods, directing distribution of it. Mr. Sing- er said: ‘“‘We have such enormous advanee orders.for 5 oe, that we need every inch of room in ask ling these orders, fe are making elaborate preparations to meet the demand this Spring, and while, of course, Siegel-Hillman Dry Goods Co, got consid- erably the best of it, they deserve it, be- cause they are live merchants. We, in fact, are very much obliged to them for giving us an opportunity, even at a loss, to dispose of everything in the shape of Win- ter garments, ‘slick and clean.’ Singer Bros. are the largest manufac- turers in the West of Cloaks, Skirts and Suite. and it is a matter of congratulation when a house like Slegel-Hillman Dry Goods Co. can handle such a large stock of home manufacturers. It proves that the ladies of St. Louis are fully in touch with the fashions, and that such handsome cloaks are appreciated. Walked Into the River.

TWO FIREMEN THE VICTIMS. They Passed a Bad Night, Fearing That Compton Hill Highwaymen Had Stolen the Money. Firemen of Engine Co. No. 33 at Park and Louistana avenues will hereafter cash their own monthly pay checks. Two of them, Foreman Henry C. Shockey and Driver John Sexton, putin a bad night Wednesday wonder:ng whether they had worked for “‘Uncle Henry” Ziegenhein a month gratis and pondering over the high- waymen who so abound after nightfall and to whom pay checks are as @ siraw toa drowning man. . They had given their checks to a third person to caén and then they got a fright that, measured by the face value of the check, Would amount to 19 worth. ; The third party was Harry Burleigh, one of the engine company. Burleigh is a wag. He loves to worry his blue-flanneled com- rades and he began the month of February with @ practical joke. Along toward supper time he said as the weather was cold and as he was about to go to Ewing and Chouteau avenues, where he had a friend who took a special delight in cashing firemen’s pay vouchers, he would secure Sexton and Shockey the equivalent of their vouchers, They agreed readily. Burleigh had in the meahtime dropped in at his home, 3219 Chouteau avenue, to tell his wife to keep up the deceit if the vic- tims of the joke made inqviries, ayd then he hunted up the nearest policemen, and they, too, were “let into” the fun. Towards. 9 o'clock, after Burleigh had been absent two hours, Shockey became ap- prehensive. : “Say, Sexton,’ said he, “that feliow is that money. slow about bring.ng back Maybe somebody held him up. The more the men thought of it the greater became their alarm. Finally they alternated in making little excursions to- wards Ewing and Chouteau avenues. Bur- | le'gh had in the meantime sneaked into the. | engine house, crawled into his bed and put the $190 under hits p.llow. The two victims | learned that the check had been cashed, and then redoubled their efforts to locate | Burleigh. His wife, the police and a num- ber of store keepers assisted in materializ- ing the plot. Finally” at midnight the @isgusted men visited the sleeping quarters of Burle gn) and found him “dreaming the happy rene: away.”’ He fnnocently explained that when he) returned to the en ine house the owners of | the checks were absent, 60 he went to bed, ; When Messrs, Shockey and Sexton read this it will be their turn to devise some terrifying retaliation on their fellow fire- fighter.

APSURD TALE CONTHADICTED. Mrs. Lee Denies the Story of an Al- leged Interview With the Hero of Manila. CHICAGO, Feb. 2.—Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Lee of Richmond, Va., who were the guests of Adm'‘ral Dewey on his flagship, the Olympia, for a week in the early part of December, are at the Auditorium Annex. Mrs. Lee is the daughter of ex-Senator Davis cf West Virginia and the report was current a short time ago that she was the bearer of a message from Rear Admiral Dewey to President McKinley, urging. for state reasons tnat he be appo!nted admiral, and that Dewey had urged the Lees while they were his guests on the Olympia at Manila, to use all their influence with Senators to have him promoted. Mrs. Lee pronounced the story to be absurd and without the slightest founda- tion. She was at a loss first to underetand how it could have originated, but after- wards sa.d it must have started from a eager letter which she wrote to a friend n this country, in which she expressed the op.nion that Rear, Admiral Dewey. should be promoted to the position of admiral, both out of regard for the best interests of the American occupat-.on as well as for the purpose of removing what was a source of inuch humiliation to him because of his being outranked by the admirals of other navies. Because of this fact and because etiquette, Admiral Dewey was made to ap- pear in the light of an inferior as -+-com- pared with Admiral Dietrich of the Ger. man Navy or the admirals of other coun- tries whenever they should visit Manila. Mr. and Mre. Lee said it was the opinion that the officers and other intelligent pep- ple at Manila that when the native. comes to a better understanding of the Americans the present prejudice will disappear and the natives w:ll become earnest supporters of American rule. They say it is idle to talk of the Filipinos being able to maintain a government of their own; that’ outeide of their leaders they are exceedingly ig- norant and would be the tools of selfish and unscrupulous leaders, who would soon plunge the islands into a state of anarchy through their struggles for leadership, NO SHIP FOR SCHLEY.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2.—The Califor. saciate Wine Dealera have effected an ar. rangement by which they will 6o0-operate in future. All their difficulties have been settled and the judgments and sults com- promised. The Associate Dealers control about 8 per cent of the California wine trade in the United States. Thus the deal. ers and manufacturers and growers will get a fair division of the profits. The Winemakers’ Corporation will be re- organized on the present lines before the coming vintage is ready and the dealers promise to iend their aid and assistance to the project. After the re-organization they will control at least 90 per. cent of the wine of the coast. In this way the dealers will feel secure in making their purchases, as they will know that the same wine will not be subse- quently offered at a less. price than it brought before. aa Prices will be maintained and the marin kept steady, as the two associations the wine trade. ie: Sa 5 AS: r % A wis Te Sy FT BRS PEEP Re he - ee S y .* 3 3 TE es 2 et r Pa es Be, : be : SHOW, WATER and SMOKE and crowded Hilts’ tothe doors.

My baby had a terrible breaking out all over his face and head, extending half way down his back, while his arm became one solid, scaly, bleeding sore.
