March masked men rode into this city o'clock Tuesday morning and marched the lockup, battered down the door, seized Odili Summers, alias “Rheuben Blue.” a notorious character of this place, and at the muzzie of revolvers compelled him strip naked while the murcury was near the zero mark. Forty jJashes with a twisted rope were then given him, each lash drawing blood. Sum- mers prayed for mercy, but to no avail. A phyeician who attended Summers eays it will be several weeks before he can walk. Jiis sufferings are terrible. : The mob next went to the home of Perry Chaney, a teameter, and told him to pro- duce his nephew, James Juckson, wio the mob claimed had used ineulting language to a lady. Chaney refused and he was roughly handled. Chaney's son made a move td protect Jackson, and was prompt- ly made to strip and stand out in the snow. Jackson was found, however, and given 2 lashes. He is a emall boy, not of age. The mob next visited the homes of Joe Asbury, Denny Stephens, Riley Yates, Jes- se Yates and Ben Munkers. The men were ail stripped and given 40 lashes each. Asbury was told to sell his property and leave, if he refused, he would be hung. The others were given three days time to leave town. All are married except one. The victims of the mob's vengeance say that these persecutors accuse them of va- rious petty crimes, but claim that they are innocent. The persona who compose the mob are not known to the authorities, dut Chaney, one of the victims, claims to have recog- nized one of the number.

The expectation is that if the demurrer is not sustained, the defendants will be ac- quitted. The evidence has not been brought out convincingly. It was shown that Muel- ler did not perform the duties of an in- Spector, to which he was appointed, and that Besch and Reichmann drew his salary for him and he was never at the City Hall, but little impression seemed to be made on a jury which was apparently predisposed toward the defendants. On account of the arraignment of pris- oners under indictment and the disposi- tion of other cases, the trial was not re- sumed until 11 o'clock. Aezsistant Circuit Attorney Howe asked that John C.

C., March 8.—Details of tne Insurrection in the central provinces of China, received by the Empress of Indla, State that the rebel force and imperial troops met in a pitched battle on Jan. and the latter were defeated with great slaughter. Hundreds were killed, and their bodies, after having been mutilated, were thrown into the river until, according to : correspondent of the Chira Mail, the stream Was like a log-jammed creek. After the defeat of the imperial troops, the Victorious rebels swept on to the cilles of Kuyang and Meng-Sheng, which they took after a short ele 2e. As soon as they passed the walls, they massacred men, women and children, and performed all manner of re- volting cruelties. They then burned the captured towns After these succeeses the rebels Bg gee on to Shachow and Kauchon. The gates of the former city were opened by ‘ayinge- thizgers within, and the horrors witnessed a@t their first two captures were re-enacted, Kauchon held out for some time. At length Niu and his followers gained an en- trance to begin their slaughter. As a re- venge for his having held the city against the rebels the unfortunate commandant of the garrison was butchered with savage cruelty. It is said 21%) men, women and children fell in the struggle attending the capture of the city. It is feared a great famine will follow the insurrection, for so terrified are the natives that the crops have all been left standing “und will not be harvested. SECOND FIRE “IN BUNKER HILL.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., March 8 —The Senate Committee on Criminal Jurispru- dence reported favorably Auditor Seibert’s revenue bill to give the State $200 a year and the counties $400 from each saloon li- cense, thus doubling the State’s revenue from this source, Senator Dowell opposed the bill on the ground that the bill took too much reve- nue from the counties, and would seriously cripple them. He offereai, an amendment which would add $50 a year to each saloon license, for State purposes, thus putting the burden of the additional revenue upon the saloonists, Senator Ore hard favored Saying it Was a matter of necessity in or- der to maintain the State’s credit. He thought saloon licenses were high enough, ana should not be increased, but that ev- ery man, woman and child in the State should be will! ing to sac rifice something to keep up the credit of the State. Senator Young of Kansas City opposed the Seibert bill, saying that his county would lose about $99,000 of revenue a year. Senator Morton earnestly supported the Seibert bill on patriotic grounds. Auditor Seibert. whose heart is bound up in this bill, was a listener during the debate. His bill is the ene which the Democrats in caucus agreed to pass. Many of them have kicked over the traces Senator the Seibert bill, Lyons advanced the proposition that the State debt be paid at a slower rate rather than take revenue from the counties. Dowell’s amendment was lost, 70 to 17. Drabelle and Busche of St. Lou's voted against it. Senator Young tried to gain time by moving to postpone the en- grossment of the bill until to-morrow. This was voted down, 7 to 18 Senator ‘Lyons offered an’ amendment increasing the license tax for State purposes from $200 to $300 a year, making the total saloon li- cense $700 a year. This was lost, 2 to &. Lyons moved to strike out all after the enacting clause. Lost. He then offered an amendment ¢xempting St. Louis and Kansas City from the law. St. Louis and Kansas City members sup- ported this amendment. It was lost. The Seibert substitute was adopted, 17 Br was then ordered to engrossment, 17 to 9, the St. Lous and Kansas City members voting solidly against it.

ALL THE WORLD I) WATCHING US, Russia Will Weleome America to China. COUNT CASSINI'S SOFT WORDS. en COMPARES HIS COUNTRY TO THE UNITED STATES. There Is No Talk of Alliance, but He Thinks the Interests of the Two Governments Are Largely Iden- tical in the Far East. Special to the Poat-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, March 8.—The Russian Ambassador, Count Cassini, is probably the best authority in Washington on certain phases of the Eastern question. He was for many years the Czar’s representative at Pekin, and it was he who obtained from China the first important re- garding the Siberian railroad. Count Cas- sini consented to-day to give the Post-Dis- patch correspondent his views on the Chi- nese question. “There are so many ways of viewing the ‘open door’ proposal and so many interpre- tations to be placed upon it,’ said the Russian Ambassador, ‘“‘that it is a delicate subject to discuss. I took issue with Lord Beresford, and I think made my position quite plain. Now a new aspect is presented, and we are faced with the proposition which Italy’s action in China has made yy Russia's attitude is not changed yy this action. We have never opposed the open door, and consequently we can take no other attitude than that which has been officially announced from our Foreign Office many times. “But we are wondering what our great neighbor to the west—the United States-— will do in this emergency. “It would seem now that the United States will be forced by the necessities of the case to take part in the deliberations of the natiotn concerning China's commer- clal existence. Like in Russia, there are fn the United States tremendous interests at Stake, a world in itself, where the wealth ofa large part of this country seeks an outlet. “Of course I can speak only for Russia, but there seems a similarity of interests to guard and to promote. Russia is at the entrance of her industrial and commercial development, and she will endeavor to shield this development from all that might retard it. We have vast countries just awakening from the lethargy of cen- turies and becoming grain lands and pas- ture countries, and from the outiet on the Chinese Sea we hope to enter the com- mercial world in the four quarters of the globe. “With our Siberian railroad we will carry to Europe the treasures of India and China. The tea product alone will bring us an an- nual income of 40000 rubles. Other staple products yield a proportionate figure. Then it is hoped to extend our merchant ma- rine across to your great western countries and bring your over-abundance into Asia and Africa. “For this reason Russia would welcome the United States as a factor in the coun- cils of the nations that must of necessity govern the East. We have never, officially or unofficially, protested against American occupation of the Philippines. On the con- trary, we have welcomed the United States in coming nearer to us, as one friend wel- comes another. It has been the source of much gratification to me that Mr. Hitch- cock, lately Ambassador to St. Petersburg, has told the American people about the attitude of Russia before and since the Spanish war. It would be expected that Russia’s Ambassador here would say that nothing hostile had been done against your country by his own. His position would be otherwise untenable. But Mr. Hitchcock is a disinterested witness, and when he has so cordially and so eloquently reiterated what I have said to the American people for many months 1 am, of course, deeply grateful. ‘Russia concessions atti- was this maintains her old historic tude toward this great nation. She one of the first to aid the founders of republic, and she has been, throughout its growth, asympathetic and sincere friend. During the Civil War she did her part when its existence Was threatened, and if during the war which has just been fought the United States needed the aid of Russia. it would have been given as freely and as fully as in the past. “There have been many to assert very different things of Russia’s feeling toward America, and there are still some who say that Russia has ulterior intentions in en- deavoring to draw the United States the Chinese question. Time and the author- ities of your own Ambassador to St. burg have proven the falsity of the proposition; and of the second it can ate that Russ‘a is not trying to the United States into the Chinese tion, but if the United States, to protect her vast commercial! interests, sees fit to seek a voice in deciding this important sue, Russia will be the first to welcome her to co-operate in finding a just and satis- factory solution of its difficulties SOUNDED THIS GOVERNMENT. Italy Wanted to Know America’s Pol- icy as to China. WASHINGTON, March 8.—The Italian re- quest touching China was spoken of to- day in a new light. The action of King Humbert indicates that Italy is the first Government to recognize officially the new status of the United States among the pow- ers. It also developed that Secretary Hay in his reply, pointed out to the Ttalian Government that the United States had never supported or interfered in any way with the efforts of other governments secure territory or spheres of influence CMhina, and would certainly not do so the case of Italy. Italy's efforts to secure the support, or ; least the passive consent of the Unite. States, did not end with the presentation of the note and the receipt of Secretary Hay's reply. The Italian rape in De- king approached Minister Conger severa* days ago and asked him to use his ‘eee in getting from China her consent to the Itallan demand. Minister Conger diplomat- ically evaded aneawering the Italian ‘Min- ister's proposal and at once cabled to Washington. The instruction sent him was along the lines of the reply made here to the Itallan note: Vhile the information in the sion of the authorities shows that Great Britain is diplomatically opposing the Italian demands, it is apparent that Great Britain must, witbin a few days, eitner distinctly reiterate her intention to matin- ain the integrity of China and support her open-door policy, or announce a reversal of that policy, It was stated to-day that no communication relative to the Chinese demands nad passed between secretary Hav and Sir Julian Pauncefote, the Britis/® Ambassador. but it would be surprising if ‘here had not been discussion tn London hetween the American_Hkmbassy and the British foreign office.

NEW YORK, March 8.—Augustus Van Wyck is looked on as a growing Presi- dential possibility, and this mainly because of apparent favor for the defeated candi- date for Governor of New York in the South and West.

His visit follows fast up- on the visits of ex-Gov. William J. Stone of Missouri, and Daniel J. Campau of Detroit, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the National Democratic Committee, and William R. Nelson, editor of the Kansas City Star. Mr. Nelson was a Tilden and subsequent- lv a Cleveland Democrat, and a supporter of Gen. Miles, but had a talk with Richard Croker, and the conclusion was reached that Gen. Miles could not be regarded as a good candidate for the Democratic nomi- nation for President next year, chiefly be- cause Gen. Miles had a hand under the Cleveland administration in suppressing the railroad riots in Chicago five years ago, Editor Nelson is now advocating Augus- tus Van Wyck.

BRYCE’S UNKINDNESS. in a magazine article discussing British colonial government and our Philiprine problem the Hon. James Bryce, M. P., refers to us as “the American conqucrors.”’ This is unkind in Mr. Bryce, who has shown hitherto a dis- position to be friendly. It is particularly inconsiderate of the Teelings of President McKinley, who assures the world that our taking poesession of the Philippines was an act of Providence in strict conformity with duty and destiny, and that our shoot- ing the Filipinos is “benevolent assimilation” for the good of the Filipinos themselves, and for the purpose of preventing dis- order, violence and bloodsh:d among them. » It is evident that Mr. Bryce does not discriminate between subjugation by a good President and subjugation by a bad King, nor does he properly distinguish between slaughter .for “benevolent assimilation” and slaughter for frankly admitted conquest. pas ones There is a stunning painting called “The Conqucrors.” Alex- ander, Cesar, Napoleon—all the conquerors who sought glory andempire through expansion and slaughter—are represented as marching with cruel faces between the heaped corpses of their victims. It is not pleasant to contemplate the addition of Uncle Sam's kindly face to this group of bloody imperial bandits. It makes one shudder. “The American Conquerors” is a harsh phrase.

In 1898 there were 3,350,000,000 chickens “produced” in this country, and 13,000,000,000 eggs. The total value of chickens and eggs wus $29,000,000. The tobacco crop amounts to $43,000,000, the potato crop to $80,000,000. With figures like these staring us in the face it cannot be said that the poultry industry is mere chicken feed. rw oe BROWN. | Brown was in town yesterday, but the people of St. Louls @id not rise to the occasion and give him a public reception with hymns of praise and vows of submission and loyalty.

Has the President seen a great light? Has he heard a rumbling noise? It is announced that he will get along with the regular army of 62,000 men and will not recruit any of the provisional regiments authorized, if it can possibly be avoided. This is a wise conclusion. The volunteer soldier is not to the imperialists’ liking. He is a citizen first of all and com- monly has notions about liberty and justice and government by consent, and other American ideas, which the imperialists are trying to discredit as mere gewgaws of dead and gone political dreameis. Besides, he doesn't sever home ties when he goes to the war, as the regular is inclined to do. On the contrary he keeps in touch with his family and doesn’t forget his father’s principles or his mother’s religion. More than thos. home ties make the deaths of volunteers unpleusant “casualties” and before the foolish Filipinos are brought to terms there will probably be a long list of “casual- ties.” Then, the rainy season in the tropics is coming on and disease may decimate the ranks of our soldiers. Dead regulars may be accounted for—if they have to be accounted for—more conveniently and pleasantly than dead volunteers. The President's advisers are wise in their day and gener- ation. A burni::g jssue on the question of sacrificing American lives to set up und maintain American sovereignty in the Philippines would be embarrassing just now.

On many of our strects trees that were torn down by the cyclone of 1896 have not yet been replaced. This is neglect of which we should™ot be guilty. Nothing beautifies a city more than an abundance of well- kept shade trees. Nothing is more healthful. Science tells us, too, ihat by producing oxygen and consyming carbonic acid they he!p to purify the atmosphere.

In every State there should be 2n uprising of taxpayers and the expression of a determination to do away with the present burdensome anid demoralizing system of choosing Senators. If the policy of expansion is the best one for the United States, there is no reason why we should not seize at least a part of China. If the Empire passes to European domination. what will become of our large and growing Chinese trade? Have we any assurance of open doors in case of a European conquest? - = = 9 i i It looks as if Pennsylvania is about to forget Boss Quay’s great services in filibustering for the maintenance of high tariff.

Her father was a soap-boliing millionaire. Jack was the son of a pot-boliing artist. Therein lay the cause of his despondency, for in painting the lady’s portrait upon his canvas he had likewise painted it upon his heart, and, to make matters worse, tlhe canvas portrait was nearly finished, “I can’t go on painting in high lghts and putting them out again for many more weeks.”’ he mused sadly; “and the old lady is already beginning to suspect me of working with a dry brush.” Lady Silvertown did suspect the young artist of a secret hankering after her fair daughter. Moreover, she had noticed a cer- tain wistful look in her daughter's eyes of late. Nailing his pot boilers together, he sallied forth to sell them to Broadbean, the dealer, at starvation prices.

In a second Miss Slvertown'’s handkerchief was in her pocket. while the voice of Jack Chatteris was rais in favorable criticism of the most hopeless of spurious old masters. “Dr—Miss G@ivertown tells me that she has a slight headache to-day, and would rather not give me her last s‘tting.”’ The stress he lai upon the word “last” disarmed Lady Silvertown's suspicions, and he took his leave, to make his way home to Camlen town, walking on air.

The eyes had seemed to look out of the canvas at him with a loving gaze, and he remembered well how he had k.esed the full, rosy, smiling lips, crying ‘‘Mother!’’ to the painted representation. He remembered how his father, hearing his cry, had rushed into the studio, and for the first and last time had laid hands upon him in anger, se‘zing him by the shoulders and throwing him violently across the room, so that he etruck his head against the easel with a blow that stunned him. Then came a memory of a glimpse through a half-opened door as he lay in bed, sick and dazed from the blow. His father had the picture on the easel, and had painted quickly over it. Jack rose and strode over to a pile of old sketches that lay against the wall. One of these he selected without hesitation, and, taking his palette knife, scraped carefully. There was a picture below the rough landscape. Stimulated by this discovery, Jack went eagerly to work, and in the course of a few hours he removed the up- per paintings entirety. “By Millais!"" he gasped, as the familiar a of the master appeared in the cor- Hlastily wrapping up the picture, he car- ried it off to Mr. Broadbean, to seek his aavice as to the completion of its clean- ing. “I want you to look at a p'cture for me, Mr. Broadbean.”’ “Chuck Mr. affably.

The old lady advanced toward Jack.

That good mare Fleur de Lis gets in at 102 pounds and Survivor is in at 101. The race is between these three, but leur de Lis hag such a pull in the weights that she should have no difficulty in cap- inring the purse. At New Orleans the feature of the Wed- nesday programme is the Lexington 8take, at a half-mile for 3-year-olds. Frank Rea- gan has his good colt Alex in at Ne pounds and should about take down the stake if he can concede 17 pounds to Dr. Kiddie.

Golden Rule, as anticipated, beat Yellow Tall and Innovator at Ingleside, Tuesday. Corrigan’s colt was pocketed at the etart and was away behind a half-dozen of his field. He went about his business in great style, and, picking up his opponents one by one, scored an easy victory from Ye!- low l, the three and a half furlongs be- ing run in :42%». Briggs again rattied the taient at the Creacent City track by winning the fourth race of six furlongs at any old price.

He Defeated Johnson and Davidson in Tuesday Night’s Skating Contest. John Nilsson is indeed a champion skater. He demonstrated the fact beyond the shad- ow of a dowbt by defeating Harley David- son and John 8. Johnson at the Ice Palace Tuesday night in the fastest half-mile race ever skated over an indoor track. When Starter Louis L. Singer fired the pistol sending the three men on their jour- ney Davidson jumped out in front and pro- ceeded to set a heart-breaking pace. Da- vidson went at a remarkable clip for the first three laps, and Johnson and Nilsson had considerable trouble hanging on. On the fourth lap Davidson was sti!l go- ing at a record-breaking gait, but he com- menced to tire at this point, and Nilsson slowly but surely began to overtake the Canadian. On the sixth lap Davidson and Nilsson ~raced like a team, both skating seeperatety, with Johnson several feet ack, On the turn into the home stretch David- son and Nilsson collided and the former fell down. Nilsson croesed the tape an easy winner in the gensat’onal time of 1:17%. Johnson finished second. Davidson was like a mad bull when he reached the dreesing room. He claimed that Nilsson tripped him when they collided on the turn and caused him to fall. He filed a clasm of foul, bHut Judge Al Blanchard refused to allow it. The three great skaters will meet Weinesday night in the second race of the series for the indoor champ’onship of the world. Wednesday night's event will be a mile affair and both Davidson and John- son are confident of winning. The All-American Maple Leafs beat tha seven from the ‘Manual Training School Tuesday. The. M.

ARR RT ATL INO THE YA CHAMPION BOB SAYS HIS ARM IS ALL RIGHT. HE WILL MEET JIM JEFFRIES. He Makes This Statement in Reply to the Physician’s Order That He Take a Two Months’ Rest. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, March 8.—The statement pub- lished yesterday that Bob Fitzsimmons’ right arm was in bad shape and that a physician who had examined it with the aid of an X-ray instrument had ordered Fitzsimmons to rest for two months, caused eonsiderable excitement in local boxing circles. It was thought that this meant a post- ponement of the Jeffries-Fitzsimmons fight. It appears from the statement of Fitz- simmons, however, that it will do nothing of the kind. “‘l was over to the X-ray man yester- day,’’ said Fitz. ‘My arm is sore in the elbow, sure. The end of the bone where it swings in that socket joint is chipped off and tne muscles torn. it won't keep me from fighting, though, I feel stronger-than ever and can hit a punch that will rip Kenney’s head of. Can Il try it on you? The arm is good, tell you, think it will fit good and plenty on these coming champions like Jeffries and some of those other guys.’’ The right arm is crooked strange:iy when compared to the left. It does not hurt him on a straight punch, but must shorten his reach with his right. “I feel better than 1 ever did,”’ he added, hopping around as light:y as a tireless boy, and the human fighting machine, the hard- est hitter and tricklest man that ever put up his hands in these latter days, made a few passes at an imaginary Jeffries, feint- ing, drawing back, jabbing and “Shifting as only he can. Fitzsimmons seems to be growing younger every year, while other men are aging. Some one asked Fitzsimmons yesterday why he went into the fighting game when he was drawing crowded houses. “I retired when I thought it was a good time,’ said he. “A whole lot of these fe!- lows bobbed up and the papers said I was afraid, so what could I do? It seems as if it is kind of hard to get fights when a man comes back in. ty rights I suppose the pubi'c wants a man to fight till he loses a go through old age or something. If I had stayed out of the ring they wouid have been telling how Sharkey was the best man. I'm feeling kind of sore at Sullivan. He tells some one that Corbett Was a cur and so was I when he was ta:k- ing about that fake in New York. Now why does he drag me into it? Have I ever faked or shown I was afraid of a got i should say not.” WITH THE BOXERS. Rouch and Noel Must Weigh In This Time at 114 Pounds. According to the articles signed by Frankie Noel and Morris Rouch they are to weigh In at 114 pounds. They go to scale on Tuesday, March 14. at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, and that night they face each other in the ring at the Business Men's Gym, Clarence Richie’s match with Eddie San- try having been declared off. Richie will meet Tug Connolly instead. Zee Hammer- ley will meet Sieve Flanagan. the Phila- delphia bantam, and Eddie Lally will meet Joe Leonard. These contests will all take place at Springfield, Ill., on March 16, ana Will all be of six rounds duration. That is all the law in Springfied will allow. Gov. Smith has vetoed the boxing Dill paanes by both houses of the Montana egisliature, and the plan to bring off big boxing matches out there has been aban- doned.

THE NEW BALTIMORES. Talks Its New Manager, About Its Chances. BALTIMORB, March 8&.—Manager Jolin J. McGraw of the Baltimore baseball team is expected home from New York this evening. The contract giving the third- baseman his new title was signed yester- day, and he has started to work with great vigor. He first efforts will be directed to getting together the best possible team with which to begin the season. He is after an- other catcher and a good second-baseman, while another pitcher or two would not come amiss. Manager McGraw mag this statement ‘'n reference to the Orioles’ chances for next year: ‘So far as my Baltimore team is concerned, we do not expect to win any pennants. But we hope to keep well enough n the swim to hold the attention of the public. It will seem strange to Robinson and myself not to be winning three out of every four games, but at that I believe we can make it interesting for at least half of the other League teams. I sold the release of Catcher Clarke to the Boston Clubd for the reason that Von der Horst did not want to retain him because of personal reasons. Clarke is a good ball player, but he will not be missed by us, as Robinson will catch most of the games." If we can break even on the season we will be satis- fied, and we are going to try hard to ac- complish that."’ Manager Hanlon of the Brooklyns Is ex- pected home to-day also. He will remain in town for a few days. spancmendpennteens BIDS FOR THE BIG FIGHT. ..cGraw, They Were Opened Tuesday Night, but None Has Been Accepted Yet.

Her Friends Claim Elvira Lodge “Brought” It as a Surprise, and the Female Members of the Lodge Say Nay. Did Katie Steinhelmer have a birthday party or did she not? That is a question which Elv‘ra Lodge No. 4, U. O. T. B., of Bellevike, has to solve. It will hold a spe- clal mesting for the purpose Thursday afternoon at Fischer's Hall. The fair members of Elvira Lodge hold frequent kaffee klatches and most of them are good talkers. They will probably have things all their own way, as against the men, who are Katie’s friends. The meeting is to be one of great im- portance. The call is issued by Max Prill, the Grand Secretary. Atl of the State of- ficers w.ll be there to @ee that the Db.rth- day-party question is settled right. Katie Steimhcimer is the housekeeper of Hans Schwarz, editor of the Tagebiatt und Arbeiter Zeitung. Hans is a bard or some- thing in Elvira wodge.

Katie had a birthday March 1. Hans wrote a piece for his paper the next day, which stated that Miss Steinheimer had been ‘“‘brought’’ a surprise per’. by the sisters of Elvira Lodge, who wished her many happy returns or the day. The Elvira sisters were indignant. They met and passed resolutions declaiing in forcible terms that the charge they had brought Katie a birthday party was whoiy faise. They caused a refutation of the state- ments to be published and declared the wouldn’t think of bringing Miss Stei.@ heimer a birthday party. Then Schwarz took a turn at being indig- nant. He wrote more pieces for his paper, de- nouncing the Elvira sisters in terrible fash- ion, Affairs in the lodge became so strainec that the attention of the State officers was drawn to it. and the call for the special neeting was issued. Evidence will be heard as to whether a birthday party was Lrought to Miss Stein- heimer. The active Elvira sisters will sol- emniy swear they did not do it. It is said that Schwarz will have a few members Ot the lodge who will swear they were the guests of Katie on her birthday. Hans is threatening to ‘write up” the ladies after the meeting. The husbands of the ladies are getting their clubs ready anda if the meeting does not break up in a riot it is probable a number of personal en- counters wili grow out of it.

This was just prior to the declaration of war against Spain, and at the t’me. according to the piaintiff’s statement, the Rosenthal establishment made an announcement in the public press that the positions of those of their em- nloyes who des’red to enlist would be heid open for them until their return. Further- men would be continued. The envelopes of the married men would be remitted to their wives, and the bachelors could have theirs sent wherever they wished. Sanders claims that Adolph Rosenthal, a member of the firm, assured him that the company would carry out its promises and that on the strength of th's assurance he enlisted in the Twenty-second Kansas Vol- unteers in June. This regiment passed the summer at Chickamauga, during which times Sanders claims not to have received any of his wages. Recently he was mus- tered out and, upon a applicat.on for his o!d position, he avers, that not only wes he refused reinstatement, but that the firm also refused to pay the back salary. There- upon he sued for the amount of his salary, $87.50 and $0 damages. The case had ite first trial before a Jus- tice of the Peace and Sanders won. An appeal has been taken to the Circuit Court, where the case will be heard in a short time. Sanders its represented only by his attorney, having re-enlisted in the army and is now on his way to Manila. Adolph Rosenthal, whose name is con- nected with the case, was seen Wednesday morning at his store, Seventh and Wash- ington av. When asked concerning the suit he replied that Sanders had been in his employ as a porter for only about five weeks when he expressed a desire to enlist. This the-.firm permitted, Mr. Rosenthal says, and would have paid his salary had he shown up on his return... This he déd not now do, and from the time of his enlistment ate now, the firm had heard nothing from :m. ‘Several other of our employes enlisted,’’ said Mr. Rosenthal, “and upon their re- turn were paid in full for the time they were absent. Although Sanders had been with us but a short time we would have treated him similarly had he made his ap- pearance. The first suit went by default, and we will fight the verdict in the higher court, it being, in my opinion, entirely un- just.’ ONE PLANK MAY DO THEM. Initiative and Referendum the Main Policy of Alabama Populists. ATLANTA, Ga., March 8.—A meeting of the State Executive Committee of the Pop- ulist party was held here to-day. Twenty of the committeemen were present. The principal business of the day was the se- lection of a chairman to succeed W. F. Carter. It is likely that the issue of the party will be simplified by the probable elimina- tion of all planks but one—the initiative and referendum, For the last two years People’s party leaders and newspapers al over the South and West have been urging that this plan be given the first place, say- ing that it means true Democracy, guaran- teeing the rule of the people.

In addition to the meetings to be held Wednesday, the carpee and wall paper men _ will meet carpet and wail paper men will meet Friday. The work of organizing prelimi- nary to soliciting the $5,000,000 subscriptions is, it will be seen, nearly completed. The Finance Committee met Tuesday aft- ernoon in the directors’ room of the Bank of Commerce, while at the same time the fommittee arranging for the big dinner turday night met in the office of ex- vy. Francis. It was announced at the Jatter meeting that arrangements had been made to bring by special train the Senate and Legisiature from Jefferson City, re- turning after the banquet. Approval was expressed on all sides for the list of speak- ers prepared by Senator Morton, but it was discovered that Kansas City had been given no representation. One of the committee- men said this was doubtless an oversight on the part of Mr. Morton and would cer- tainly be remedied. e meeting of the furniture, carpet and Wall paper men to be held Thursday even- ine will be one of the most important of the subcommittee meetings yet held. They will mble in the ladies’ ordinary of the nters’ Hotel in response to a call from 8. H. Kennard and L. E. Kaetwasser, rep- resenting the carpet interest; J. H. Kent- mor, President of the Furniture Board of Trade, and George A. Newcomb, Chairman of the Wall Paper Committee. Gov. Francis, H. T. Kent and T. 8S.

The reason is that the joint ittee of the House and Senate in ar- ne for responses to toasts by mem- of the Legislature ignored the Kan- tv delegation “Of course,”’ said Representative Cleary ne for the Kansas City members o ouse, “we realize that St. Kansas City is the second city in the State, and she was anxious for an opportunity to show to St. Louis and Missour! that she intended to c te in making the fair a success. In view of this intention {it is discourag- ine to discover that we are not considered important enough to be asked to take part in_the toasts at this banquet.’ The local Arrangement Committee jn St. will be immediately | _WAYHAVE BEEN THERE BEFORE ) he Convicted Bigamist Believed to Have Served a Term in State Prison for Horse Stealing. ; Paris. deserve a place beside those of Rome and They are not less numerous and persistent. and their booty is not less rich than that of the vagabonds made famous in fiction by Eugene Sue and Charles | Reade.

Young savages are these Third st. beggars. They vie with each other for food, ~~ the race is to the swift, the battle to the strong. And weak enough is the strongest. You will walk far on Third st. before you find a childish face. The beggars are children of poverty or vice, and have a heritage of wrinkles, sunken eyes, parchment skin and unfilled stom- achas, Their breakfast, dinner and supper must be gleaned on the street where 20 commis- sion houses teem with good things from one end of the year to the other. The beg- gars are many. The booty of each is small; the gatherings of the many are a fortune. In the band of wan-faced chil- dren who ply the street there are some with honest hearts, who ask and, if they Harry B.Odell,who was given a four years’ Penitentiary sentence on the charge of big- amy by a jury in Judge Klein's court Tuesday, ae told in the late editions of the : Post-Dispatch, will not he altogether itn a strange place when he gets settled in Jef- | een City. nm @ communication received by > - lice from the penitentiary warden? % to stated that an H.

Stone: October, March, $ r Steph.- ‘“Jim’’ by Excise Commissioner Higgins testified be- fore the Major Committee that he did not divide the fees of his office with anybody in St. Louls or the State of Missouri and that he had “just happened” to mail ex- Gov. Stone a check for $500 about every six months eince he had been in office. He had no contract with Gov. Stone to represent him in the courts at al] times, and Gov. Stone had never presented a bill or suggested what remuneration he wanted for gervices rendered. Gov. Stone appeared in court for Higgins only three times dur- ing the period in which the Excise Commis- sioner “‘happened’’ to send him $2000. Higgins testified that certain missing checks in his bundle of concealed checks were those used in payment of loans made by Lewis C. Nelson and Nelson's son. His balance in bank on Aug. 1, 1897, was $10,- 000. One month later he borrowed $500 from Nelson, according to his testimony. He did not remember what became of his bank account during the interim. Higgins admitted that there was no check on his office because of the system of ~~ som the records, followed by Chief Deputy Mappes. He admitted that a clerk in his office, were he so disposed, could issue saloon licenses and make no record of it in the office. He stated that the disclosures made by the committee were news to him and that during his term he had relied implicitly on his chief deputy’s statements that the of- fice was being properly conducted.

Three Words Mask It in a Grab Bill Rushed Through the Hoyse of Delegates. Messrs. W. S. Fleming, Matthew Ryan and L. Hull, a committee of property hold- ers, present a sample of the latest out- rageous conduct of the House of Delegates in its action on House bill No. 26, an ordi- nance authorizing the Terminal Railway Co. to operate tracks across Atlantic st., between Cardinal av. and Montrose av. and over and through the block.

AND THE WOMEN GOT THEIRS. A Pretty Howdy-Do in Vaudeville Cir- cles Caused by an Omaha Bag- gagéman’s Blunder. When the. trunks of a pair of one-legged men get mixed up with those of a pair of two-legged women, what is to be done about it? This is the question which confronted Manager Salisbury of the Columbia The- ater Sunday, and it was a question which was not finally solved until there had been much debating, explaining, telegraphing and hunting for new costumes. It was only dhe of the trials of the life of a man- ager of a theater, but it was one of the most exasperating. The team of Emma Krause and Margaret Rosa, who, with their ‘“‘Dutch Pickanin- nies,’’ are a feature of the Columbia's vau- deville bill this week, left Omaha last Sat- urday night for St. Louis via Kansas City. Among other vaudeville performers from the same theater were Conway and Leland, a team of one-legged athletes and dancers, who were going to Kansas City to appear at the Orpheum. All of the artists reached the depot in Omaha at the same time, and all proceed- ed to check their baggage. It was very late at night, very dark, and every one was in a great hurry. These things may explain how and why the checks for the trunks of Conway and Leland were given to Krause and Rosa, while the monopedes received the checks for the baggage of the singers. Conway and Leland got off at Kansas City, and Misses Krause and Rosa contin- ued on to St. Louis, little dreaming that in the baggage coach ahead were two trunks full of one-legged. men’s clothes, while in the Kansas City theater were their own trunks of feminine costumes, When they reached St, Louis Sunday evening with only a couple of hours to spare before going on the stage for their turn, they found await- ing them a number of frantic telegrams de- manding the return of the one-legged clothes, and the information that their trunks had already been forwarded. Here was a situation. Conway and Leland’s trunks were hustled back to the station and dispatched to Kansas City. But what were Krause and -Rosa to do for ward- robes? Miss Krause hustled about, and, with the assistance of the colored women of the Walker’s .~Merrymakers’ Troupe, faked up @ negro. servant girl costume. Miss Rosa went on in her traveling cos- tume, and the pickKaninnies did the best they could. Their,act was a hit at that. Monday morning the truant trunks ar- rived, and matters were thus adjusted. “We had the best of it after all,’’ re- marked Riss Rosa. ‘“‘We could get aleng with what we had. But think of those two one-legged men with nothing to make up in but a lot of women’s clothes!”’ LOST IN A “BLUE” NORTHER, James Kearns Will Lose His Feet as a Result of Exposure to a Chill- ing Texas Wind. For 24 hours James Kearns was lost in the wilds of a Texas forest, with the tem- perature below zero. There was no place of shelter, and he suffered terrible hard- ship. His face and hands were frost-bitten and both feet were so badly frozen that they will have to be amputated.

NOW THE LAUGH IS ON THEM. They Can’t Sell Their Booty, and Rev. -George W. Cobb Is a Loser and No One Else a Gainer. Two thieves make a great mistake Tues- day night which they will find when they appear before the grand arbiter of values on thieves’ plunder, the fence. The thief is by accident, inclmation and of a necessity no respecter of persons. Everything is grist that comes to his mill; all is plunder that he gets his clutches on. | But sometimes the grist proves all chaff, the plunder nothing but a gold brick. Such was the case with a pair of social outlaws of the species denominated “hall workers” by the police, who entered the room of the Rev. George W. Cobb and wife at 1222 Oiive st., amd made away with sundry clerical garments belonging to the m.nister. The room was darkened; hence the thieves could not see what they were tak- ing. They found a dress suit case, and probably thinking it contained the usual spike-tail coat, low-cut vest and black trousers, confiscated the contentS. They also took the clergyman’s stole, a valuable part of his church vestments, trimmed with heavy fringe. which may have passed in the dark for an Oriental shawl. he dress suit case contained a clerical coat of late style that buttons to the chin and has no lapels, a vest and one ir of trousers. Wile the articles stolen are of consider- able value to the former owner, they are worthless to the thieves. None ‘but a clergyman could wear them. The thieves cannot sell them to a fence, not because of the piety of the fence, but because the fence could not sell them to anybody else. Dr. Cobb regrets his loss, but laughs at the great joke on the thieves. He hopes the thieves will return his property in dis- gust, but does not believe they will. ‘IT used to feel quite dressy in my other suit,’’ he said, ‘‘but now I will have to wear the old one, and without the comforting knowledge that my others are benefiting some one else.’’ The Rev. George W. Cobb is pastor of the Bethel Mission and a minister of the Epis- copa] faith. NO USE TO PROTEST -— TERMINAL ASSOCIATION STANDS WELL WITH DELEGATES. The Terminal Ratlroad Association is seemingly in high favor with the House of Delegates. The corporation succeeded in having ‘two bills which confiscate property sent to engrossment Tuesday night over the protest of the property owners. One was a bill to run a belt line railway from the northeast suburbs of the city to the west- ern limits near Forest Park. The other bill gives up Atlantic st. between Cardinal] and Montrose avs. to the Terminal. Following is one of the sections of the latter bill: Section 2. Whenever said Terminal Railroad As- sociation of St. Louls, its successors or assigns, shail procure and file fn the office of the City Register a certificate of the City Counselor to the effect that said company, its successor or assigns, have acquired title to all the property immediately fronting Atlantic st., between Montrose ay. and Cardinal av., or any alley in city block 2551, said Atlantic st. and said alley shall thereupon become and be vacated. Consent in writing to such vaca- tion by the owners of lots within sald limits shall have the same effect as if said company, its suc- i = or assigns, had acquired title to such prop- erty The property owners who were present complained that the bill should compel the Terminal Co. to purchase the entire block. The bill went through by a vote of 17 to 9. A bill granting a 50-year franchise to James C. Jones, Louis A. Manewahl and John R. Boyden to build and operate a gas plant was passed. The Council Committee on Railroads met Tuesday afternoon and heard remonstrances from a gy | owners against the proposed line of the Suburban Road from Twelfth to Twenty-ninth sts. on Pine and from Twenty-ninth st. to Grand av. on Chestnut st. There was no one present to defend the bill. The complaints were that the line was unnecessary and that it would be a menacé to life and limb and spoil the streets. LEFT HOME TWO WEEKS AGO.
