BOSTON, Mass., Feb. 28.—Mrs. Georgiana | Wales of Newton Cengr, is dead, and medical surgery involving the entire stomach, and the second in this country, has proved a failure. The opera- tion was performed by Dr. Maurice H: Richardson on May 31 and since then Mrs. Mass., Wales had lived without a stomach up to last Monday, when she died. Until a few weeks ago she gave promise of fina! and | ' Clark absolute recovery. She and her immediate family firmly believed that the operation was the primary cause of her death; but the physicians who performed the autopsy , found that it was in reality due to a re- currence in a more aggravated form the disease which made the operation im- perative—cancer. A few days before her death for the first | and only time Mrs, Wales referred to the operation, saying: “| hope no other -°m™ will be subjected to the pain and suffering to which I have been subjected. cer také its course.” THE NEGRO NOT LYNCHED.

(Sketched Tuesday Morning by a Post-Dispatch Artist.) when translated, means “spirit wrestlers.”’ For over a century and a half the com- munity has flourished. The sect in Russia has over 2,000 members, while its deyotees ure scattered all over the world. But from the reign of Czar Paul I. they have suf- fered untold hardships because they have followed the dictates of their conscience. The Dhoukhoborsti are friends of Count Leo Tolstoi, and Mr. N. O.

They have been persecuted and driven from home and made to seek shelter in a foreign land among foreign people.

The present Czar of Russia has harragsed the Dhoukhoboreti in a degree equal to that of his predecessors. His latest decree was that every member of the sect shall leave the Empire within two yearns.

Histcry of the Cnrse, the Persous Connected With It and the Perplex- ing Problem Which So Long Baf- fiéd the Officers of the Law. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb. 28.--Charged with tw» murders, the killing of Henry C. Barnet end Mrs. Catherine Adams, Roland B. Mo- lineaux is a prisoner in the Tombs, and the perplexing mystery of poison by mall seeins in a fair way of solution. After hearing the convincing evidence against Molineaux, told in telegrams to the Post-Dispatch yesterday, the Coroner's ju- ry returned the following verdict: “We find the said C. J. Adams came to her death through peculiar poison admir- istered to her on Dec. 28, 1898, by Henry 8. Cornish and sent to him through the United States mail by Roland Burnham Molineaux.’’ The preliminary hearing will take place to-morrow. . The inquest proceedings leading up to the arrost Were most dramatic, and reached a climax when Nicholas A. Heckmann, point- Ing his finger at Roland B. Molineaux, who sat opposite him, declared: “There is the man who rented tie letter box st 25/ W. Forty-second si. from me.” “It's a lie,”” shouted Molineaux, curning pale and leaping to his feet. “I only saw that man twice in my life.” ' Next came Handwriting Expert William “There is absoluteiy nm aoubt that the superscription of (the poison | ay ge and the letters falseiy figned ‘H. C. Barnet’ and ‘H. ‘‘uornish.’ ani sent frem the private letter boxes, are in the same handwriting as are the exhibite admittedly written by Roland KB. Molincaux for the police."’ Sensation No. 3 was furnished by Edwin B. ee! the United States Treasury ex- ert. He also swore that Molineaux wrote he “Cornish” and ‘“‘Barnet” letters and the addres# on the poison packages. Mr. Hay, as well as expert Kinsley. rv ve scores of reasons why he had come to te conc)u Sion that Molineaux was the author of the writings. i Henry L. Tollan of Cnicago, an expert on the microscopic examination of paper, also swore that the poison address and the Cornish and Barnet letters were written by Molineaux. Albert 8S: Osborne of Rochester was the fourth expert to go on the stand. He etated that the polson package address, the letter signed “Cornish’’ and that signed “Barnet,’’ together with specimens of Mol- ineux's handwriting, were all written by the same hand. Dr. Frazer, a Philadelphia exper, testi- fied exactly as®did the other experts, de- claring positively that Molineaux was the author of the incriminating letters. It was announced at-the District Attor- ney’s office that Edward M. Rogers, hus- band of Mrs. Rogers, daughter of Mrs. Adams, would call unon District Attorney Gardiner during the day and make a state- ment. He will de this, {t was said, at his own solicitation, Mr. Rogers is a traveling with headquarters at Buffalo, Mr. Weeks, counsel to Molineux. said he would take no immediate legal action in his client's behalf. hence the habeas cor- pus proceedings will not be resorted to. It was said at the District Attorney's of- flee to-day the present grand jury would not be called upon to consider the case o! Molineux. The new grand jury, however will be sworn In on Monday. : pt 4 eberecond that the entire staff of e stric ttorney is no the Barnet pdison ease. SA aii iets Molineaux’s first night in the Tombs was an uneventful one outwardly. The alleged prisoner took his new surroundings with that remarkable sang froid that has been characteristic of him since first his name was mentioned in the case. It was ea d that District Attorney Gardiner would to- day ask the grand jury to indict Molineux for the two alleged miurlers, and would toe | up witnesses who ‘lid not appear at the Coroner's inquest. On the other hand Suna sole that Molineaux’'s ; ry to secure the young clubman’s soelese on habeaus corpus proceedings. hatever happens, Coroner Hart will hear the case to-morrow, and an effort will be pore then to have Molineaux admitted to attorneys Young, Mrs. Molineaux, who was on the wine of hysterics when she heard last a t of her husband's arrest visited him jin the tombs early to-day.

A collateral issue of the Coroner's in- uest, however, was the death of Henry C net. Dr. Witthaus has not yet made report on the chemical analysis he Made of the organs taken from Harnet's umed body. He may do it to-day be- the grand jury. Should his report prove what is generally expected, Molineux May be indicted for the murder of Barnet. As it is now, the warrant on which he {s held does not mentizn Barnet’s name and Merely makes him “wepeatad responsibie for ‘Mrs. Adams’ death. For these reasons Molineaux’s lawyers ve assured him that he is in no serious er. Shortly before Dec. 28, 1898, a package was fivered by a letter-carfier to Har 8. ish at the Knickerbocker Athietic in this city. Cornish says he does not remember the exact date, but fixes it ap- imately as Dec. M. For two or three ya this package remained at the club un- Opened, the recipient evidently not having any curiosity as to its contents. On the t of Dec. 27 Cornish took the package, . to his home, where he lived . Adams and her daughter, Mrs. anny Rogers. The next en Dec. 3, Ts. Adams complained of fee ing sick. Ornish opened the package, found it con- ned a bottle of bromo-seltzer, and gave Ts. Adams a dose of it, from the effects of Which she died in a short time. When Mrs. Adams was in her death throes, Cornish or eee ee BLOOD POISO} Primary, Secondary or Tertiary Syphilis perma- pentiy cured in 15 to 35 days.

An analysis of the contents of the bottle showed that they were heavily charged with cyanide of mercury, @ most virulent and unusual poison. The inquest was dejayed for six weeks, while the Coroner’s physician was making a test of the powder and examining the stom- ach of the postoned woman and the police were endeavoring to ascertain by whom the package was malied. During this interim many curious facts were developed One of these was that H. ©. Barnet, a member of the Knicker- bocker Club, had received a similar bottle taking some of the supposed bromo seltzer, but his death at the time was attributed to a complication of diphtheria and pneu- monia. The packages sent to Barnet and Cornish were similar, and both were labeled as containing a particular form of bromo seltzer, known as Kutnow’s powder, The Cornish bottle was contained in a silver bottle holder, which the police found had been sold by a manufacturer in Newark. * “e to an unknown man with a red veard., Thus equipped the Coroner opened the ev!- dence. At the very outset a peculiar con- dition of affairs was disclosed. The Knick- erbocker Athletic Club was shown to be a hest of intrigue, and scandalous stories were told about the conduct of prominent members. Cornish and Barnet and h tter’ friend, Roland B. Miolinenux, wore bitter enemies, and charges and counter-charges of a serious nature were shuttle-cocked about between them. Several of them kept private letter boxes, in wh'‘ch mail from women was received, and Mrs. Rogers, the daughter of the murdered woman ‘was shown to have done the game thing. All this, while edifying to scandal mongers had little real bearing on the question at issue—who sent tne poison to Cornish?— s) far as the general publi could dixcern and ‘t .» only in the light of subsequent testimony that {ts importance cun be fixed It was not until Cornish was put on thie stand that the District Attorney began ts draw out the sory in tangible form. (Cor- nish swore that the bottle was unopened until he broke the covering and removed the cork to administer a dose to Mrs Adams. At first he declared stoutly that he had no idea who sent the powder. but on being pressed at a subsequent examina- tion said bluntly that he/ thought it came from Roland B. Molinedux, and that the latter had sént it In the expectation :hut Cornish himself, for whom Molineaux en- tertaired a deadiy hate, would he poisoned Cornish also avered that in his belief Molineaux sent the poison to Barnet. the motive in that case being jealousy. He showed’ that Molineaux and Barnet were both paving attentions to the same woman. Miss ance Cheeseborough. whom Molin. eaux married 19 days after Barnet’s death When Molineaux was called as a w-tnress he gave his testimony in a straightfor- warc, manly way, denying everything Cor- nish alleged. Of all the witnesses called he made the most favorable impression, answering al] meee ons without the least hesitancy and Isplaying not the slightest trace of agita- tion or guilty knowledge of the crime of which he is now charged.

Henry Knobel Claims That the Wo2d- workers Have Kept Him From Getting a Situation. Henry Knobel’s applicatifa for a per- petual injunction, restraining Antone Loy and others, constituting District Council No. 2, Amalgamated Woodworkers’ Union of America, from interfering with him in the prosecution of his trade as a wood- worker, was heard by Judge Flitcraft Tues- d ay. Knobel said he was a member of the ‘union in August, 1898, and was employed with the defendants by the Staudte-Rueck- holdt Manufacturing Company. He _ al- ‘leged that charges of infractions of the |laws of the union were preferred against him and he was fined $%. He refused to pay the fine, which so irritated the defend- ants that they went to the foreman of the Staudte-Rueckholdt Company and told him that if Knobel was not ischarged im- mediately they would quit work. He said he was then informed that his serv.ces were no longer needed. He charges that he has been idle since, through the defendants’ conspiracy to ne § him from securing employment at his trade. He asked that they be enjoined from further attempts to prevent him from finding work and that he be awarded $7000 against them for the injury, they have al- ready inflicted upon him.

JOHN W. KAUFFMAN’S TOUR. Well Known ‘‘Bear’’ Proposes to Visit Hawaii and the Philippines. John W. Kauffman, the man who makes fortunes by: bearing the wheat market, will not be seen on ‘Change again for many months. His Western tour will not stop at California points. He will go so far Wert that he will skip a day and visit the far East. It is Mr. Kauffma3n’'s purpose to spend a week or so in San Francisco, then sail for Honolulu. After inspecting the Hawat.an Islands he will go to the Ladrones anJ thence to the Phil'vpines. He carried his silk. hat with him. This announcement means much to men who study Mr. Kauffman. They have come to regard that silk hat much as the etorm- tossed mariner regards Mother Carey's chickens. Its appearance means trouble. When it is warm on ‘Change wise men go short on wheat or any other commod- ity that Mr. Kauffman deals in. It is ac- cepted ae an infallible token that its own- er means. business and that there will be a strong bear movement. If the silk hat is replaced by a Derby the wise men know that Mr. Kauffman is not out for blood and they make their deals without considering his potentiality. What he intends to do _with the silk hat in the really oppos'‘te and theoretically opposite far Hast and far West is not known, but the w'se men on ‘Change ex- pect something to drop if he wears it. GOV. FLETCHER IMPROVING. He Has Almost Entirely Recovered From His Recent Attack. Ex-Gov. Thomas C. Fletcher, who re- cently suffered a stroke of apoplexy while in Willard's Hotel, in Washington City, is reported rapidly improving and is con- sidered by his physicians te be out of all danger from this attack. He was removed from the Emergency Hospital, where he was taken when stricken, to Mrs. Wer- niker’s, 1404 M st., N.-W., last Tuesday, where the Governor and Mrs. Fletcher have made their home since their removal to Washington some ten years ago. The Governor is now akle to get up and dress himeelf and his mind aippears as clear as ever. Of course he is still weak from the effects of the stroke, but will, in a few days be able resume his professional duties, Although 72 years of age, the Gov- ernor is constitutionally strong. Ex-President Green Protests Agaiast Paying People’s Railway Taxes. Charles W. Green, ex-President and ex- receiver of the People’s Railway, asked Judge Wood Tuesday to set aside his order of Friday, directing the Clerk of the court to pay out of the fund received from the sale of the road to Parsons, Gehner and Rumsey, taxes on real and personal prop- erty aggregating $20,000. Mr. Green contends that such payment would absorb the fund in the Clerk’s hands and. therefore, would be unwise at the present time. Judge Wood will hear argu- ments on the motion Friday. BOTKIN CASE NOT DONE. Poisoner Will Be Granted Stays Until Perfection of Her Appeal.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.—In the ouse yesterday Mr. Sulzer (Dem.) of New York offered an amendment to increase the num- ber of Major-Generals in the regular army to four and to provide for filling the va- cancy by the appointment of Gen. Wheeler. Mr. Hull raised a point of order and the point was sustained. | Mr. Sulzer called attention to the fact | that no point of order had been raised against the amendment to create the rank of Admiral for Rear Admiral Dewey. Mr. Sulzer was repeatedly called to order by Chairman Hopk'ns who finally eummoned the sergeant-at-arms. Thereupon Mr. Sul- zer retired to his seat. | a SARAH JEWETT DEAD.

Not getting along as well as you ex- pected? That is the way grip acts when it is not taken in hand and driven out oi the system at once. The poisons left by the grip germs keep right on destroying the vitality and undermining the health. You lose your appetite for food and what little you eat seems to do no good. Your nerves are unstrung, you become weak and exhausted and finally you are overpowered by some chronic disorder which takes you to an untimely grave. Why should you let the grip run until it gets such a hold on you when a few bottles of Dr. Miles’ Nervine would fix you up all right? It is the greatest nerve medicine and health restorer ever known and thousands of grip’s victims are find- ing in it a safe and sure means of regain- ing lost strength and vitality. “I found myself with a very weak stom- ach, and every time I tried to eat I would become nauseated, sometimes belching wind and frequently finding relief only after vomiting. My nerves became alf- fected and I was almost blind for several months. Finally I began using Dr. Miles’ Nervine; and when I had used one bottle I was greatly improved. After tak- ing two more bottles my stomach trouble was entirely gone and I have had no re- turn of the symptoms: in over three years.” MRS. L. L. WINTERS, Gwynneville, Ind. A trial package of Dr. Miles’ favorite treatment for the grip, consisting of Dr. Miles’ Nervine, Dr. Miles’ Anti- Pain Pills and Dr. Miles’ Nerve and Liver Pills, will be sent absolutely free of cost to any person sending name and address_on a postal card, requesting the sample, and mentioning the name of this paper, Ad- DEMOCRATS WILL UNITEDLY OP- POSE EXPANSION. FOR FREEDOM .OF FILIPINOS. Leaders Instructed to Make the Fight on the Floor of the House. 4 WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.—Congressman Burke was the only member of the Demo- cratic House caucus who last night refused to vote in the affirmative on this resolu- tion: “We hold that the Constitution of the United States was ordained and established for an intelligent ,liberty-loving and self- governing people and cannot be successful- ly applied to a people of different virtues and conditions. We, therefore, hold that a colonial policy is contrary to the the- ory of our Government and subversive to those great pricipals of civil liberty which we have been taught to cherish. “We belleve, with the Declaration of In- dependence, that all governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, and we are unalterably opposed to the establishment of any Government by the United States without the consent of the people to be governed. And, in con- formity with these principles, we instruct the minority members of the Foreign Af- fairs Committee to introduce and urge the following resolution: “ ‘Resolved, By the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, That the I'nited States hereby disclaim any dispo- sition or intention to exercise permanent sovereignty, jurisdiction or control over the Philtppine Islands, and assert their determ- ination when an independent Government shall have been established therein to transfer to said Government, upon tne terms which shall be reasonable and just, all rights secured under the cession by Spain, and thereupon to leave the Govern- ment and control of the islands to their people.’ te Nearly all the Democrats, with exception of New York representat\lyes, were present. Only Briggs and Bradley attended from New York. Congressman Champ Clark of Missour! offered the resolution.

The purchase of the Louisiana Territory removed the ‘menace of war; the Philippine purchase brought on war; the one extended the principles of free government, the other involves an act of despotism. \ +. &.& i dl UNDERPRODUCTION OF COAL. - According to the Tureau of Labor Statistics for Ilinois, the coal mines of that State have an annual capacity of 41,082,- 925 tons of coa!. The Lureau also states that the normal output for the year should bave been about 20,000,000 tons, but that the mines actually produced 1,473,459 tons less than this. This shortage, which the ming owners could have avoided, supplied them with an excuse to put up prices through com- bination, without regard to the needs of the people or the bitter sufferings that a lack of fuel causes the poor of our large cities in the depths of winter. Juggling with the necessaries of life by monopolies organ- ized for the purpose of squeezing all the profit possible out of the public creates intolerable conditions. The trusts and com- bines must be brought under control. 4 && . i. ee Thousands in the Chinese flooded districts are starving and the Chinese rebels are making great headway against the unprogressive Government.

If the proposed law to regulate marriages goes through in North Dakota, there will probably be a hegira of young people from that State. The jaw commissions a board of physicians to examine and pass upon all couples who desire to marry. We are not told that anv member of the board is to be of the female sex. Did the State Senate, which has passed the law, consider the full effect of this law? We are in danger of medical tyranny from the cranky ideas of certain would-be reformers. It is a good thing to educate young people to care for their health as one of the preparations for marriage. But it is one of the worst notions of the com- pulsory State Socialist that the human race should be im- proved by official meddling with family relations. The enactment of the proposed bill would make North Da- kota the laughing stock of the country and while diminish- ing matrimony would probably promote immorality. It is to be regretted that the Czar is seriously il). He should live to forward the movement against the standing army system. The large standing army will have to go, however sooner or later, It is contrary to the progressive spirit of the age —— = =— FRANCHISE TAX The Hall Franchise Tax bill now before the House at Jeffer- gon Ciiy is laid on correct principles.

Serious results often follow careless vaccination. THE HANDWRITING ON THE WALL. There is no doubt that the anti-imperialism resolution of the Democratic caucus of the House of Representatives expresses the sentiment not only of a great majority of Democrats, but of a large and strong element of Republicans. In the thick of the fight Americans of a}l shades of political opinion stand loyally by the government, but a war of con- quest and imperiai colonial government supported by bayonets are abhorrent to American principles, and an overwhelming majority of Americans are faithful to their principles. Administration supporters may denounce Hoar and Hale in the Senate and Johnson in the House in any terms they please, but their views of the Philippine question are in- dorsed by the best elements of théir party. The President and his advisers are afflicted with pol{tical blindness if they cannot see the handwriting on the wall at this imperial feast. When order has been restored at Manila and calm consideration follows the heat of conflict they will be called to account for the bloodshed in the carrying out of an imperial policy. The comparison of British expansion with American ex- pansion is not a very good one. England is so very smal] and the United States are so very large that British expansion and American expansion are quite different. Furthermore, England has expanded so Much that a number of her colo- nies are practically independent of her. It is to be hoped that the Budget Committee of the Reich- stag will adhere to its determination not to increase either the infantry or cavalry of the German army. The overbur- dened German people need peace and so do all] the other nations of Europe. It is a good time to keep up the dis- armament idea. It is bad for the imperialist theory that so many expanded Much of their decline, furthermore, It is much more difficult to govern The seeds of dissolution lic in expansion and they never fail to germi- nate. was due to expansion. one The Chicago meat company employe who told Prof. Weston that the company hgd worked off on the Government all the beef it had would suffer for his lodiiacity if his name could be known, and he would gét @#o medal] from the Administra- tion for his frankness. aA ae - - r The failure of the Eutopean Disarmament.

BACK ALLEYS. This scheme of a back alley has never been adopted in New York. It is known in Boston, and is not uncommon in Phila- delphia. The: advantages of the plan are obvious, but it is urged that a city ora quarter so arranged is more difficult to po- lice. As for the space required, assageways and front entrances with heir approaches be reckoned up for all the houses in a block, it will perhaps be found that an alley through the center of the block would be a saving. On hand the arrangement which has en made in some parts of London, by ich all the ground in the heart of the“bdlock upon which the back windows look, is turned into one continuous garden—the adoption of this admirable scheme would bar out the back alley, as also our Amer- ican system of doing the th mily wash- ing in the house. London has its washing, and therefore its drying, done far away in the country, out of reach of the “blacks.” —From “The Building of the Modern City House,” by Russell Sturgis, in Harper's the other (Magazine for March, PROBABLY LOOKING OUT. , ‘ " \ \o \\ al) ‘ ; \ ee | e Naeanenh .

An interesting relic is preserved in a glass case in the guards’ orderly room at one of the London barracks. It consists of the head and neck of a goose, around which is a golden collar with ‘the inscrip- tion, “Jacob, Secdnd Battalion, Coldstream Guards.” Beneath !t are the words, “Died on Duty.” In 1858 a rebellion broke out In Canada, and two battalions of the guards were sent to assist in quelling it, the battalion men- tioned being one of them, Both corps oc- cupied the citadel of Quebec? and in thelr turn supplied the guards which were or- dered to be mounted in different parts of the town and neighborhood. Near one of these guards was a farm- yard which had suffered much from the ravages of foxes; and as the farm in ques- tion had been suspected of being the meet- ing place of the rebels, @ chain of sentries was placed around it. One day the sentry whore duty it was to watch the entrance to the farm, had his attentién attracted to an unusual noise, and on looking toward the spot whence it he beheld a fine pores fleeing tas ly _— y a fox. ta despair the poor bird ran its head and néck between the legs of the soldier tn its frantic endeavor to reach which the sentry box could af- at the same moment the wily fox made a desperate grab at the goose; but too kate, for ere he could get a feather between his teeth the ready bayonet of the y. 1@ poor goose, by way of showing its gratutude to its preserver, rubbed its head made other equally curfous demonstrations of joy; nor could it ever LS prevalied upon to quit the . b walk up and Sown Bg each successive n , there until the battalion left Ginate. oer the goose was brought away with it as a re tal pet to England. made ’ : attempt was un aban (Semaine "atoctaPls ets | as —o--@— 0 --4 -¢--4 o_o _4—@ o— A GOOSE. | o—+—o--0 —¢--—0—_ 0-09-00 064-969 0-00 000-0 0--0- seemed to presage an approaching atorm. In these moments of darkness a sharp observer might have noticed the shadows of several men who, unobserved by the somewhat drowsy sentinel, were endeavor- ing stealthily to approach the spot where he stood. Suddenly he heard, é6r thought he heard. a strange rustiing sound, and bringing his musket to his shoulder he shouted loudly: “Who goes there!’ Several minutes clapsed, during which the soldier marched up and down his lanely beat, followed by the devoted go0se, until deeming his alarm unwarranted, he again “stood at ease” before the sentry box. This was the enemy’s opportunity. and the rebeis were not long in endeavoring to profit by it.

Certificates of stock have no more valve than waste paper, except as they represent dividend possibilities or voting power In the man- agement of the company. Ali buying and geliing of stocks not based on these fea- tures is simply betting on future up and Gown quotations. Ninety-five per cent then of the businesws done In exchanges is s‘'inply for the purpose of making up and down quotations for betting purposes.

The Crack Eastern Rider Failed to Create Much of a Sensation Among the People of the Sunny South. At New Orleans Tuesday's racing feature will be a handicap at seven and a half fur- longs, for which five horses are colored to etart. Bea Robber is given the top weight of 105, Col. Frank Waters has 104, Moroni, 100; Henry Launt, 97, and Prince Harry, 92.

Ezell’s hard-worked filly is bang up to a race, and if her astute owner has his ppocks down, Espionage should have no difficulty in putting Go to Bed to sleep. Apart from the features named, Tues- Gay's cards are made up of selling races. Olinthus proved himself a od colt at land Monday by defeating Formero and apamax at seven furlongs in 1:27%. The = California Derby candidates carried pounds each, and were in rec®ipt of seven pounds from Napamax. Formero was @ flerce favorite at even money, with Olin- thus the outsider of the trio, at 4 to 1. Bull- , who had the mownt on the winner, OoR no chances, and made each furlong a winning post. His tip-toe tactics were guc- yg Sale and Olinthus got home half a length n front of Formero, on whim “Skeets” Martin did not make his run until enter- ing the stretch. rney Schretber's Giga, the first Foul pt filly to raice in this country, made a ery creditable debut in a 2-year-old race t Oakland. Giga got off ows 4 and was ractically out of the race at the quarter, ut came faet at the end and finished a 00d second to ‘Harry Thatcher, the 7 to favorite. O'Connor was in rare form at the Cres- ent Clty track ‘Monday, and plloted four inners, all of which were.,at remunera- v@ prices. The talent had a great day, hve of the six races falling to favorites. engational won the feature event of the programme from J. ‘H. C. and Simon D. New Orleans can bdoast of having more gentlemen jockeys, or to put it in another ay, more amateurs willing to ride a thoroughbred in a race, than any city in thé land, New York only excepted. Next turday, ‘March 4, the attractive feature the Crescent City card will be a Gentle- mén's ra-e, in which the fgllowing amateurs have eironsy expressed tneir intention to ride: CC. stis, Allen Mehle, F. ik, Clarence Britton, John F.

In three Successive days last week three previous tks were equaled or smaghed. The ppelor clipped three seconds off the four- m record, which now stands at 7:16. _ Duttols lowered the seven and a half fur- long mark from 1:33% to 1:82%, and Top- mast equaled the best time registered for a @Ye and a sixteenth by covering that distance in 1:45%.

LEAGUE IN SESSION NATIONAL BASEBALL ORGANIZA- TION CALLED TO ORDER. - VON DER AHE AND MUCKENFUSS Chris Will Be Represented by Proxy, but His Ex-Secretary Will Be There in Person. NEW YORK, Feb. 2%.—The annual schedule meeting of the National Baseball League, which began to-day at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, promises to be one of the most interesting and protracted sessions ever taken part in by the men who control the national game in the largest cities east of the Rocky Mountains. Since the close of last season's play many deals have been heard of and some of them have gone through. The most notable of these is the consol'- dation of the Brooklyn and Baltimore cluDs, which was perfected yesterday. Brooklyn, of course, gains very materially by the deal, as the ‘“Grooms”’ will now be made up of the star piavers from both clubs, while the “Orloles’’ will be a sort of second edition. Manager Ed Hanlon, a stockholder and director in both elwbs, wil] manage the Brooklyn end of the business. Hanlon said to-day that the report that Balt:more wouid only be a “farm"’ chub was untrue. “The final make-up of the teams will not be definitely arranged for some weeks to come,’ said he, “but when the teams have been selected all friendeéhip—from a playing standpoint—will cease and the men will play against each other as if their lves depended on the winning of the penant."”’ Next to the Brooklyn-Baltimore deal, the question of the transfer of the Cleveland club to St. Lou's is the principal topic to be discussed this week. Chris Von der Ahe and B. 8S. 'Muckenfuss will contest With each other the question as to which shall be the recognized repre- sentative of the St. Louis ciub. Muckenfuss is here in person, but Von der Ahe has sent on his proxy, and Abell of Brookiyn will represent him in to-day’s meeting. The changes in the playing rules, sue- gested by the committee appointed for that purpose, will probably take up a good deal of the time when th«y are brougat up for discuss:on, The umpire question will also be a promi- nent one during the week, and it looks as if a sort of “Civil Service’ examination will be arranged in order to test the capa- tuities of applicants for the hardest pusl- tion in the League. j The powers of the Board of Discipline may be increased and a motion to resume eee system will undoubtedly be pre- sented, That a 12-club sehedule has been pre- pared is beyond all doubt, but that it will remain intact during the season & not so certain. Many persons who have an inside knowl- sage of the League affairs claim that there will only be eight clubs interested in the playing circuit before the season is many weeks old. EX-JOCKEY VAN CLEVE. He Will Make His Debut as a Skater at the Ice Palace This Week. Harry Van Cleve, who several years ago was one of the crack jockeys of the West- ern circuR; will appear at the Ice Palace this week as an acrobatic and burlesque skater. Van Cleve is known ail over the ecount:r, having ridden thorou,,hhrets over almost every track in the Unite] States. He made his Jast appearance us a jockey In 18M, when he piloted Lexington S. to victory in Bast St. Louis. _When war with Spain was ceclared Van Cleve joined Teddy Roosevelt’s Reugh Riders, and it is said that he was one of the first United States soldiers to mount El Caney Hull. Van Cieve’s proper name is Max Lamp- he'mer. He hae resided at 3413 Laclede iv. in this city for 16 years. At 8 o'clock to-night the sweil St. Lou's Hockey Club will meet the sevea from the St. Louis University. Juvenile Cake Walk Champions. Master Walter Bennett and ‘Miss Nellie Geiger won the gold medals emblematic of the children's cake walk championship at Fraternal Hall, last Sunday night. une medals were given iby the Progressive Order of West St. ‘Louis Lodge. Montreal Accepts St. Paul's Challenge. MONTRBAL, Feb. 2.—The Royal St. Lawrence Yacht Club has accepted a chal- lenge of the White Bear Ciub of St. Paul to sail matches, best three out of five, on or about June 12, between the Dominion and one of the White Bear Club's last year’s boats for a trophy which is to be put up by the Royal St. Lawrence Yacht Club. Monday’s Traek Winners. At Oakland—Good. Hope, Torsida, Harry Thatcher, Olinthus, Merops and Horton. At New Orleans—Protus, Volandies, Ad- metus, Sensational, Rose Apple and Stanza. Few men understand women. When a wo- man is weak, sickly, nervous, fretful, irrita- ble and despondent the average husband ~ §magines that she is simply out of temper. An average hus- band will a simply go out and leave her alone for awhile, ‘‘to have it out with herself.” A bad husband is Mable to off and get drunk. The fact is that the poor wife is suffering from illness of a de- scription that breaks a woman down sooner than anything else. Her back 1s weak and aches. Her “ sides stitch.’’ She has pains and a dragging sensation in the abdomen. Her appetite is touchy and she suffers from nausea. She hes sick headaches, giddi- ness, dizziness, cold chills, flushings of heat. shortness of breath, palpitation, dis- turbed sleep, frightful dreams, irregulari- ties and nervous and trembling sensations. Her pain-racked nerves are @ continual torture. A woman in this condition is suffering from weakness atid discase of the delicate and important organs concerned in wife- hood and motherhood. Dr. Pierce's Fa- vorite Prescription makés these organs strong aud well. It allays inflammation, heals ulceration and soothes peak. It has transfo thousands of sickly, nervous, tulant, childless and unhapp women to happy, healthy, helpful, amiable wives and m ts. It banishes the discomforts of the period of prospective maternity and makes 's advent easy and almost pain- medicine dealers sell it and an honest druggist does not ad inferior substitute profit.

His Sentence for Fraudulent Voting .Had Been Approved by the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals. Martin Timothy, who was pardoned from the penitentiary Monday, served only 11 days of a two years’ sentence. He was convicted a year ago of fraudulent voting at a general eid@tion held/ Apr'! 6, 1897. Timothy voted at a polling place, giving the name of Charles Gordon, who WAS «4 registered voter. He was convicted in the Criminal Court tf March, 1898, and was sentenced to two years in the penitentiary. There were the usual motions for a new trial and motion im arrest of judgmicnt. They were all overruled. Then the case was appealed. The Supreme Court affirmed the finding of the lower court and on Feb, 1% he began his term of imprisenment. The reasons given by Gov. Stephens for issuing the pardén were not stated. It | said that Ben Brady, a brotaer of Hugh Brady, Blection Commissioner, interested himself in Timothy's benalf. The case of Martin Timothy is an excep- tion to the general rule of ciection cascs. It is the only one in which. a conviction had been obtained for several years. KNOCKED DOWN AND ROBBED. Herbert Hoyt’s Experience With Three Men on Chestnut Street, Herbert Hoyt, a grocer’s clerk at 2123 Market st., went to the Central District Po- lice Station Monday night and told the desk sergeant that he had been assaulted and robbed at Sixteenth and Chestnut sts. at 7:30 o'clock.

One of the robbers noticed the clenched hand and taking a knife slashed the back of the hand till Hoyt gave up the money. The police observed the cuts on the nd and sald that they were mere écratches. They investigated, however, tin Cogney, James Shields and John en were arrested on suspicion. Hoyt could find no one to corroborate his story of the assault and the police released the suspects, Cogney was one of the trio who assaulted and robbed the treasurer of the Stifeil wan at Ur h reatinee for five — was sent to the for the crime. le and Whalen and Giteids were released from the Workhouse only a short while ago.

A LEGISLATIVE JULIUS IS TRYING TO THINE HB, WROTE IT. ——E But the Real Author Is City Counselor Schnurmacher, Who Dicta- ted It to a Sten- ographer. Julius Wurzburger, member of the Board of Election Commissioners—some call him the Mayot—has become ~,‘‘an author." Julius is charged with having originated a great many things, notably the “Mystery of the Books,"”’ but he has never until now been seriously charged with writing any- thing but ballots. Julius has prepared a “Treatise on Polit- ical Beconomy and Fraud at Election.’’ This, his masterpiece, is receiving the fin- ishing touches now. It is all completed except the emotional part, which Julius is said to play very well, The treatise was written with a purpose—like a problem play. It has a great mission, too. It is destined to be read on the floor of the Missouri Senate, to the Senators thére assembled—and to the lobby. It may, also, be read in the House, where thg Hon, Jeff Pollard, reading clerk, will belch forth the fine phrases of Julius and thunder his ‘‘de- mands in the name of justice,’’ before the public has become aware that Julius is an author. Julius proposes to make a hit right in the go-off. He is not going to take any ehances on lethargic booksellers concealing his calelum under a beer keg and keeping AUTHOR.” : the anxious public—whose servant he is— ‘“ AM THE waiting for a great treatise. Not anything like that for Julius. O, no! /And, another thing, Julius is a great pdlitical econo- mist; ikewise one having proper considera- tion for the wealth of others. It would cost a good deal to publish a massive work like the ‘‘Treatise;”’ also it would cost the expectant public some pfennigs to pur- chase So Julius dedicated the thing to the 40th General Assembly of Missouri, so that after the manner of things important or: ludi- crous thus presented it will become knuwn EN TO ME THINK.” throughout the land—it is \to be printed in the German newspapers, also. There is a cause for every effect .no matter how insignificant the latter may be according to all laws of equilibrium and Julius’ treatise has not fractured any or- dinances—not yet. It had a cause, The proposed Jones amendments to existing electing laws caused Julius to bestir his think-tank and protrude his brow. The treatise is intended as a reply to the amend nts and opposition thefe- to. The amendments ‘have been public a iong time. It is not known just when the plaster began to fall in Julius’ inner sanctum and the City Hall to take on se- vere trembling fits at intervals. Certain it ia there have been strange goings on about the be-spired structure that “‘stood for’’ the central traction bill without a shake. At times the Mayor cannot hear himaelf think so great is the atmospherit disturb- ance, and the Mayor te said to be some pumpkins on vociferous thought-construc- tion himself. One of the elevators dropped the other day and came near spilling a ‘ho of bricks. A — boy tossed his hat Into the court from the top fleor and it re- mained suspended in air for severa! minutes, Occupants of the hall have re- marked these phenomena, but none had the lottery luck to guess the cause. Nobody would accuse Julius of thinking the great thoughts that ‘he has been at - giing with in the last fortnight. It should not be said that Julius has worn a troubled look of a rather a fierce one. e of . Twill think! the “WILL RBUILD.—The Merchants’ ° « acrobatic thinking act is “ory! done in an effort to convince himself that he wrote the treatise. Everybody knows the old story about the boy whe told the fairy tale #0 often that he finally came to believe it. Well, Julius is one of everybody and he knows the fairy tale yarn. But it won't work in his case. He has told hiinself about 4102 times that he wrote he treatise, But. it won't go-—or stay, ather. Hence Julius is trying to make himself think he wrote it. Hence the great disturbances about the City Hall; also hence some of the meteorlogical freaks of the recent past, like the thunder snow- storm. But he can’t make the think, for he didn’t write it. Julius don’t care for that, but ‘he is afraid he might talk in his sleep some night and give the thing away to some of his political bed-fellows unless he convinces himself that he did write it. Of course Julius signed it—his signature is the finishing touch. But City Counselor Schnurmacher dictated the stuff to his sten- ographer, who did the physical writing and handed the paper over to Julius. WENT INTO BANKRUPTCY. Max Schulenberg and August Thoer- ner Can Begin Business Again Unharrassed by Creditors. Max Schulenberg and August Thoerner, soap manufacturers at 612 8. Main st., filed individual bankruptcy petitions Tuesday in the United States District Court. Their joint liabilities approximate $10,000. while the assets amount to about one-third oO fthat sum. The factory has been in the hands of a trustee for some time, but the action of Schulenberg and his partner will necessi- tate a complete suspension of work. The concern employede large number of men. Schulenberg was indebted to the German Savings Institution in the sum of $3000. The loan is secured by a deed of trust on real estate in Burnly County, Texas. The principal unprotected creditors are the Goodrich Manufacturing Co., St. Louls, and Charles Ziegenbatz, St. Louis, $269.20. Thoerner’s debts, outside of those which as co-partners, both he and Schulenberg contracted, consisted of money borrowed from the local banks. : The firm had been in business here for several years and stood high in the com- mericial world. The combination of vari- ous- coap companies and the consequent lowering of price in that article, it is said, forced them to the wall. ERBER—ARNOLD WEDDING.

They have his interest S80 at heart—Fannie éspecially—that when John doesn’t come to meals on time, or Stays out late at night or spends his money too freely with other musicians, the girls lecture him. The neighbors say Miss Fan- nie makes it real warm for him. Miss Rose doesn't care so much. She works in a book bindery and her mind is too ab- sorbed with ruling machines and ink pots and leather and thread to fret about John Cole, John was late in reporting at the flat Monday night. What he said when Miss Fannie began a corrective conversation “started something.’ To a person on the floor below it sounded like a man reducing a cord of wood to cook-etove size. The girls screamed, there was more racket, and then the sisters Otto fled from the flat. When they returned in a few moments they had a robust policeman with them. They could not get into the flat for the simple reason that John Cole had locked all the doors and barred all the windows. John didn’t know a policeman was out- side. He thought to keep the girls in the fresh air for a little while and he went to the back window to explain that a lit- tle fresh air would do them good. He caught sight of the big man in the blue coat. He turned pale and retreated. His fright grew upon him when he heard the policeman ‘battering at the kitchen door. As the door gave in, and the besieging party entered, they were jast in time té see John: Cole give a wild whoop and spring from a front window. He took the Sash with him. The fall of 2% feet to the pavement below twisted an ankle and broke an arm. An ambulance tcok him to the 3 spital, where he now reposes on The Otto girls went back upstaigs and passed a quiet night.

Ferdinana C. Crecelius and Miss Hilda A. Hogan took one of those street car rides to Clayton Monday afternoon which so many other young folks have taken with the same result.

It is probable the ceremony might have FERDINAND C, CRECELIUS. been: their own secret to day, but for the fact that a newspaper man was unwittingly asked to witness the treing of the knot. Mr. and Mrs. Crecelius were astounded when the witness, who seemed like an or- dinary human being in figure and attire, stepped forth and mechanically began ask- ing for all the facts in the case. Their sur- prise was shadowed only by the amazement of Mr. Crecelius’ mother when ehe heard the news. | Mr. Crecelius is a son of C. C. Crecelius, who was cashier of the old Fifth National Bank. The family résidence is at 1110 Dil- lon st. The bridegroom’g;smother said, when informed that she h a daughter-in-law, that she did not kK Miss Hogan per- sonally, but had hea most flattering de- scriptions of her. The young couple had met, she said, last summer at the home of Mr. Crecelius’” uncle inSt. Louis Cougty.

Sol Smith Russell must have felt last night that he was in tbe friends. the star enthusiastically ani called him be- fore the curtain after the first act of “Hon.

It greeted glad that it had met Mr. Russll. After the second act Mr. Russell and Miss Florence | Rockwell responded to long and loud ap- Plause and a hardsome floral lyre was passed over the footlights to Miss Rockwell. This was provocation for another discourse by Mr. Russell and he gave it and the au- dience was glad again thac it knew the amiab'e and ta’ented cometian. The play is a poor thing. It was writ- ten for Mr. Russell by Charlies Klein. Mr. Klein probably had it copyrighted, but that was a work of supererogation—no sane per- son would steal it and no actor but Mr. Russell could make it tolerable. Is is beau- tifully produced and the costuming ie in- teresting, but the story is involved and the dialogue, of which there is very much, is for the most part witless. It required all the charm of Mr. Russell’s personality to keep the audience entertained last night. The scenes are laid in the office of John Grigsby, a lawyer, in Illinois In 18%. Mr. Russell plays the part of Grigsby. Aston- ishing as it may seem to persons familiar with the customs of that period in I)linvis and the equipment of the lawyer of tnat period, Mr. Grigaby although so poor that he sheriff seizes his furniture, employs a clerk to draw up his papers, has a librar of peperenty a thousand volumes and fs elected judge of the Supreme Court. A rich widow loves him an Gebte and secretly pays his subsoribes $10,000 to a campaign fund in order to insure his election. The heroine ise a school mistress from Tennessee, who is being persecuted because she teaches negro children. She proves to be the daugh- ter of the arch-villan, whom she declines to forgive when Hon. John Grigsby folls his ses his iniquity. Of course Grigsby weds the echool teacher and other couples are properly paired off. Miss Rock- well was the school mistress and probably makes as much out of the part as any one could. She is a St. Louisan and had many rsonal friends in the audience. Mre. annie Adison Pitt, as the impossible widow who gives ae away, does a nice bit of character work. Mr. William Sampson as @ wooden-legged veteran of the war o 1812, makes most of the fun in the play. Mr. James Lackaye—a brother of Witon—is the heavy villain and looks it.

An audience which made up what it ladked in numbers by its fash- jon and intelligence received the work of these thoroughly capable singers with en- thusiasm, in two instances ins sting upon an encore, something rarely demanded and seldom allowed in Wagnerian opera, The Tannhauser of M. Gibert was a reve- lation to the critical audience, accustomed to the more robust methods of the German tenors usually heard in that role. Gibert’s voice is magnificent in its strength and quality. He sings without effort, and. what ie more, he @iunciates perfectiy. Closely pressing him for first honors last evening was M. Gaidan, who sang charmingly the baritone music allotted to Wolfram. Gai- dan's style, if pry tne yom may be permit. ted, is superior to that of the tenor, though he is hardly Gibert's equal in his interpre- tation of Wagnerian roles. Another thor- ough artist among the men in thie merito- r.ous organization brought here from New Orieans is M. Bouxmann, who sang the part of the Landgrave. last evening. His bass voice is clear and melodious, and in the septette at the end of the firet act of ‘““Tannhauser’’ is given admirable oppor- tunity to make itself heard to advantage. Mme. Fierens, who sang Kligabeth, was in excellent voice. Mme. haiese made her first appearance in St. Louls in the role of Venus. Her performance wee more than satisfying, vocally as weil as histrionicaily. A word of prais* should be uttered for the leadership of M. Nicosius. At all times did he have the orchestra well in hand.
