HIS FATHER IN THE STREET DE- PARTMENT. Young Man Caught Trying to Com- mit Burglary—Police Officials Say They Did Not Recom- mend Clemency. The young man giving the name of Harry Adams, who was arrested last Wednesday while trying to effect an entrance into the house at 3150 Washington avenue, and who when searched was found to have a loaded revolver, a wire-cutter, a knife, a candle and chisel in his possession, was turned loose by the courtesy of City At- Kinsey Tuesday morning, and by of influence from the City Hall. he is not 17 years old yet, is not named Adams at all. According to police officials his name is Albert Belden, and he is a son of Benja- min W.

(‘ity Attorney nollie prossed on the aid The boy, for it is claimed, was of said the case recommendation Kinsey the first offense. Both Chief of Police Campbell and Chief of Detectives Desmond deny this and say they never made any such recommenda- tion. Thev are the only heads to the Bt. Louis Police Department. On the morning of April 5, at 12:30 o'clock, Patrolman Clark of the Seventh Police Dis- trict saw a person in the yard at 3150 Wash- ington avenue. The policeman watched the man for twenty minutes and saw him at- tempt to gain entrance to both the front and rear doors. When leaving the bagk door and going to a side window the po- liceman called to the man to halt and or- dered him to throw up his hands. The man complied. The policeman marched his pris- oner to the Seventh District Station, where he gave the name of Harry Adams. He was talked to by Capt. Peter Joyce, who sent him to Chief Desmond. In his report to Chief Desmond Capt. Joyce said it was his opinion that “‘this man is a burglar and may be wanted for some jobs recently committed.”’ When Adams was taken before Chief Desmond he was as cool and collected as any criminal the Chief ever “‘sweatci,’’ The boy declared he came from New York with his brother a few days before. He told the Chief his father was dead and déscribed the lot where he was buried. He said his mother was a music teacher in New York City.

The Callaways, who were Catholics, ‘nsisted that they be remarried there by a priest and sister consented. Af- ' ter stopping at Fredericktown for a few weeks they returned to 8St.. Louls. Calla- way declared that he intended to pursue his medical studies and secure a diploma. But he never kept to the resolution. | “He had the advantage of a good educa- tion. but he loafed and drank and made his wife miserable. They stayed at Frederick- town about a year on their last visit. How sister was treated during that time [ can- not say, as she was a girl who never cem- plained.

Duck called at Police Headquarters at noon to ascertain if Chief Campbell! cared to see him regard- ing his connection with the Callaway tragedy and to learn if charges Would be him.

It is claim- by the PenwWell people that the opera use afd other bulldings te pote in ge with their offices were occupied by deputies, who fired upon their men. In proof of this they claim that spent bullets found in: their office and imbeddéd in the “‘top works” of the mines are shown to be the kind of bul- lets now in the rifles which were furnished the deputies by the State. The Penwells claim also that they have five witnesses to he that it was not a bullet from Henry agers pistol that killed Xavier Lecocq. “The wholo trouble has been brewing for some days,’ said Mayor Penwell this morn- ing. It Was rumored Saturday that the negro miners would be driven out before Monday. Saturday night there was trouble in the neighborhood of cur mines which would have still been the talk of the town to-day but for being overshadowed by yes- terday’s more deplorable tragedy. ne of our negroes, Will Earle, and Will Orear, a white union miner, were accosted by deputies and their houses fired ‘nto. | “At 11 o’eclock yesterday morning Sheriff Downey telephoned me asking if I would arm the negroes at the mines. I replied | I would not if the would keep order up town. He agreed, and five minutes later | Louis Whitfield was shot. After the firing began upon us I consented that the ne- | groes should have gtins to protect them- selves and the property of their employ- ers.’ From 10 o'clock yesterday morning ‘Until after the troops arrived, about 7 o'clock, Mayor Penwell, his younger brother, the | Office clerks and half a dozen other em- | proves were kept prisoners at this mine. | hey were afraid to leave, and they say that when they telephoned into town for something to eat, they were informed that the deputies ha warned the grocera. to sénd no food to the Penwell mines. | Tae report that miners were shot at the Péanwell mines last night was verified by Mayor Penwell this morning. He said Six men Were wounded at the mines. ‘Loney were: RUFUS FINDLEY, colored; shot through the hand. CLINT ROWLAND, colored; shot througn the hody. LOUIS, PETTERFIELD, broken. ALBERT BROOKS, colored; shot in arm. Cc. leg colored: the H. DORSEY, colored: shot through the eg. MARTIN WHITMER, white; knee cap shattered.

The wife}! of Henry Stephens said this morning that she had received a telephone message from Taylorville saving Stephens was in fair way of recovery. George V. Penwell, owner of the mine, makes his home at the Leland Hotel in Chicago. He has lived there for the last 10 years, coming to Pana occea-'! sionally on business. He was here about | a month ago. An attempt was made to! assasinate him then, said one of his sons this morning, and they are afraid now that the old gentleman will insist on returning to Pana. which they consider it worth vet | of- to mine sent treated in the surgeons and life to do. The claim ts made at the Penwell mines that Frank Coburn met death not from a'! ball fired by a negro miner from the tower of the mine but from a deputy’s bullet. Coburn was known to be in sympathy with the negroes. Coburn’'s, family is also of the Same opinion. On the other hand, the union miners, many citizens, as well as the deputy sheriffs, maintain that the shooting began in the towers at the mines. The Coroner may be able to fix the responsibility. Col. Culver says he does not intend to interfere with the courts in the provess of the law. He said the local officers would be allowed to make arrests, but would not be permitted to carry arms; that the diers are the persons permitted with weap- one A committee of deputies waited on Col. Culver and asked if they would be allowed to take some prisoners to Taylorville. Col. Culver told them he would furnish an escort of soldiers to the train, but they would not be allowed weapons until they lad entered the cars. . They would then be provided with revolvers by him and dis- armed again at the train upon their re- turn to Pana. Company D, Fifth Infantry,: from Bloom- ington, under Capt. Miller, arrived at noon. PEOPLE FLED THE CITY. Two-thirds ‘of the population, of Panda were not in town laeét night. Lt was not enerally known that Gov. Tanner was go- ig to comply with Mayor Penwell’s re- quest to send troops here, and panes that the darkness of night. would be accepted by the union miners as an opportunity to work revenge upon the negroes for yes- terday's events. every citizen who sol- ’ could | do so removed his family to the country, out of harm’s way. A6é soon as Adjutant-General Reece and Col. Culver had established their quarters at the St. James Hotel they declared the town practically under martial law. Whi.® no one was prevented from going upon the | Streets after nightfall, no congregating up- | on street corners or in public places was ' permitted. All saloons were closed, and the proprietors made no effort to open them, | It is to their credit that they received the | orders in such proper spirit, for, though | the National Guard is in evidence at ev- ery turn of the eye, the townsfolk are out- raged over the killing and wounding of inoffensive men and women, and it woulu have taken but little stimulus last night for a demonstration of their feelings. Tho three companies of the Fifth Reei- ment did not pitch tents last night. Not aman of them went to bed. The regiment | has been mustered out of the volunteer service, and at present neither of the three companies here numbers more than 50 men, At Col. Reece’s orders they were assigned by their Captains into squads of eix men, and all night long they patrolled the e'ty. They did not, however, go near the shafts of either of the mining companies. SIX WOUNDED MEN. ’ It was said last night at 11 o'clock Drs. Miller, Connor and ~Fringer had / dressed the wounds of six men at the | Penwell Mines. They are suppoced to have | been wounded in the return fire upon the watch towers. All kinds of vague rumors were to be ha®@ for the mere listealng lasi night. Coroner Bradley, who has been given more work in one day than any of his predecessors in office ever had before in six months, toid the Post-Dispatch representative last night that he had pee: been informed that five or six more dead negroes had been found in the muddy roads of the “Flat Ham” district, in the northwestern part of the town. “I haven’t been officially notified,” said Mr. Bradley complacent!v, “so I shan't go down there. If there are any dead nig- gers down in ‘Flat Horn’ I reckon they'll huve to stay until morning.”’ The last body brought into Kirkpatrick's undertaking place last night was that of an unidentified negro, who had been shot through the head during the fusillade about noon. He was fleeing down Orange street when the ball pierced him. He ran into the house of a colored family and fell dead as he crossed the threshold of the door. Mr. Kirkpatrick was not notified to call for the body until after 7 o'clock last evening. A negro named union miner. was that William Walker. a non- brave enough to astride through the city last night. He was taken to Kirkpatrick’s morgue, where he iden- tified the three negroes as James L. James of Greenville, 8S. C.; Henry Hooks of Bir- mingham, Ala... and Charles Watkins of Alabama. The colored woman whose body was not claimed he said was the wife of a non-union miner, whose name he could not remember. LLETS FLEW EVERYWHERE. To say that Pana was under a heavy halistorm of lead from 10 o'clock until after 7 o’clock yesterday with intermittent spurts of the death-dealing pellets until after 4 o'clock, is a hackneyed expression, | but at that, the only one that conveys the truth of the situation. All along Locust and Main etreets are houses with shattered window panes and bullet holes in the walls and roof. ‘Squire Pierce, Deputy Coroner, who lives at Locust and Orange streets, was in the line of fire.

Of the several yg Ey page he tole erarding the start of the trouble yesterday 3 which is most generally credited here ix that Sheriff Downey, who had come over from Taylorville, the county seat of Chris- tian County, on business, was informed that Henry Stephens,, a ‘‘pad’’ negro, who is blamed by everybody .in Pana for Inciting the.coal riet here last Beptembes. was Boing ab@ut the streets with a loaded revoiver Pini for trouble. The Sheriff Stephens to the local il. where were con- fined several of his @olored friends wio were arrested Saturday night for discharg- ing firearms and otherwise misbehaving themselves , As Sheriff Downey approached Stephens, who was standing on the outside of the jail trying to communicate with his friends in- side, he ecaHed on the negro to. surrender. Stephens’ only reply was made with his istol the life of Xavier Lecoca, who was standing on the opposite side of Locust street, as Stephens emerged from the alley through which he was chased by Sheriff Downey to the Penwell stores. After the alarm was given to the deputies by a short blast of the whistle at the electric Nght plant the firing begai. from the towers. If Stephens had not been taken away from here as soon as he was it is certain that he would have been a - corpse himself before the troops arrived to restore quiet. At 1 o'’cels this morning Adjutanit-Gen- pral Reece ordered Company D of Blooming- ton, under Capt. Miller, to report to Pana at once. An amusing incident occurred vesterday afternoon when the police arrested a nexzro man in woman's clothes. His face was whitened and painted, and he wore a closely clipped mustache. Hts gait first attracted the officers, and it was discovered that he with a wooden leg. He explained that he was mere:iy trying to escape from town. He was told to go quick, and he asked permission to go to his room to get his belongings. His belongings turned out to be three other peg legs and an overcoat. | When las: seen he was '‘hobbling east on the | Baltimore & Ohio tracks, BLAMES THE DEPUTIES. Mayor Penwell Makes a Statement Through the Post-Dispatch. From a Staff Correspondent. PANA, Ill, April 11.—Warren Penwell. Mayor of Pana, and 6on of the owner and operator of the Penwell Mine, furnished the Post-Dispatch the following signed statement giving version of the con- flict and the cause: his the Post-Dispatch. The shooting yesterday which cost the lives of five men and one woman, follow- ing the killing of Xavier Lecocq by a stray bullet, was begun by the deputies, who are principally composed of etriking miners. It is untrue that the negro miners began the firing from the towers of the Penwell Mines. I was warned that there would ve trouble between the deputies and negroes. Monday morning the men working at my father’s mine began clamoring for guns. They declared their lives were in danger. I refused to give them guns, and held out against giving them gune, until one of our colored miners, Loule Whiltfleld, was shot through the legs in front of our office. Then I felt it was time to defend ourselves, and the negroes guns, We only answere] from the guns of deputies. The who are sworn in to give protec- To the.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, April 11.—Gov. Tan- ner gives out this statement in reference to his course in regard to conditions at Pana: “At Sherif! Downey's request, about three weeks ago, I removed all of the troops from Pana after he had made a statement in writing that troops were no longer needed. “I received several telegrams and tele- phope messages yesterday from citizens, stating that firing was going on and peo- ple being shot, wounded about 2 o'clock I learned that the Sheri had taken a prisoner, and, with the pre- PENWELL. 648 Se ones. homes | ’ fracea tf | | amd then ensued the duel which cost i would | The soldiers allowed the negroes to do as they pleased, and this spoiled them.

He generally sent such prisoners back in charge of a Corporal and two guards. The troops have orders to disarm every- body. and the military authorities at Pana must be obéyed until further orders from me.’ TAYLORVILLE, Ill... T,. J. Downey is greatly incensed by the presence of troops in ana. “‘The State troops are not needed at Pana,’ he de- clarés, “They can do no more than the deputies are doing. They seem to be anx- lous to protect none but the coal) opera- tors’ interests. If the State troops had never been stationed at Pana the negroes never have had the courage to en- in battle with the deputy shertffs.

A sujte of apartments has been especially fit- ted up for him on the berth deck of the ship aft. The furniture and appointments are luxurious and the rooms are known 4s tlie Governor’s section. They are finished in California redwood, highly polished. Just forward of the saloon are the pantry and the office, the first on the port side, the second starboard. The saloon extends the full width of the vessel; it contains a beau- tifully polished sideboard, set with hand- some mirrors, two divans, upholstered in dark green leather, a dozen diners with the same upholstery, and two polished oak ta- bles. There are false windows hiding the dead-eye ports. These are fitted with small diamond panes and are draped in green silk. On the port side, back of the saloon, is a bedroom, which contains a brass bedstead, and behind that is a marble bath room. Two emaller bed rooms and a similar bath room are on the other side of the vessel. Be- tween the bed rooms is a small sitting room. These are to be the quarters of Capt. Leary and Lieut. Safforda who goes with him to Guam as Vice-Governor. Besides the Governor-General and his of- ficial family, the Yosemite will carry a i rison of 12% marines under Maj. A. C. Kil- ton. She will also have a brass band of 10 men, which is to give concerts in front of the Governor’s palace. The Government will use the two buildings in Agano, which the Spanish officials occupied. The palace will be Gov. Leary’s residence and a barge, known as the “Quadrangle,”’ will house the garrison of marines. Gov. Leary will rule over 10,000 inhabitants of Guam, which 1s practically the only in- habited island of the Ladrones. Of these 0 are foreign and the others are natives, an admixture of Spanish and Malay blood. The Yosemite is to remain at Guam for some time. Capt. Ide is ordered to make a survey of the island and report as to har- bors. The only harbor now known is Apri Bay, about five miles from Agano. There is a village of 4 houses on the hill back of the bay The Government has allowed Capt. Leary $50,000 to maintain his establishment as Gov- ernor. It is desired to make an impression on the people of the Guam of the wealth and. strength of the nation under whose flag they are to live. Capt. Leary takes with him on the Yosemite a pretty little steam launch. The Yosemite is loaded down with other stores. In her hold is a distilling plant that will insure pure water to the American garrison on the island. Light summer furniture for the palace and quadrangle is also in her cargo. She is to take on more stores in the navy yard be- fore she sails. CATHOLIC TEACHERS CONFER. Proposed Unification of Educational Methods in Colleges. CHICAGO, April 11.—Mer.

NEW YORK, April 11.—Thirteen lives are known to have been lost shortly after 3 o'clock this afternoon by an accident on the bridge across the Harlem River at One Hundred and Thirty-second street, which was in the course of construction.

The number of drowned is estimated at anywhere from six to twelve, but appar- ently reliable reports place the number at ten, The accident was caused by overturning of a large derrick which carried the men with it into the river.

BROADWAY, WASHINGTON AVENUB AND ST. CHARLES STREET. LAVINIA IN TROUBLE —— QUEEN OF HOLLAND DAMES MAY HAVE TO ABDICATE. CROWN SAID TO BE OF PASTE. Decoration Recently Received From the “Order of St. Catherine” First Caused Suspicion. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 11.—Rebellion has broken out in the New York Kingdom of Irish Hollanders, and Lavinia I. (Van Wes- tervelt Dempsey), monarch of everything Dutch that she surveys, may soon bemoan decline and fall, owing to an undue fond- ness for foreign decorations, This was the cause of a special meeting called at the boarding-house where Lavinia is at present tarrying “incog’’—a meeting so prolific of faith-shattering denouements that reverence for the royal person had Paris, was openly questioned. It was there that the order of St. Catherine so lately pinned upon Her Majesty’s breast by the mysterious, if duly accredited, repre- sentative of Prince Guy de Lusignan; of Paris, was openely questioned. It was there that the awful truth crept out that the crown jewels were of paste, and the diadem, which, according to the sovereign’s own statement, depleted her private treas- ury to the extent of $30,000 to swell that of a leading jeweler, was a mere theatrical bauble at the paltry sum of $22; that— horror of horrors—when the royal head was uncrowned the jeweled emblems of sov- ereignty, instead of retiring to a safety deposit vault, where thieves might not break through and steal, were sent back to the “‘property man” to be scoured. The lustre of a Holland royalty to be scoured! One exalted lady-in-waliting, in frank and unguarded terms, assured Her Majesty that she did not believe that such an order as that of St. Catherine existed. Thereupon, Mrs. Mary Banks Stacey filed an active protest that was trembling on the lips of every woman present. “I object,’”’ she said flatly, ‘‘to the Queen’s private affairs being exploited at the expense of the Holland Dames. If she chooses to visit an East Side kindergarten in ther robes of state, with a procession that makes crowds gather on every street corner, well and good. But our society must not be dragged into it. If she re- ceives foreign orders that we know nothing about, they belong to her individually. We are simply an organization to perpetuate the memory of the Hollands. If,"’ signi- ficantly, ‘‘these things continue, we will be reluctantly foreed to resign.” But the monarch could not so easily re- linquish her “divine rigiht.”” She not only = insisted that her decoration was absolute- 1897 ISQ9 - 7 —- ——— 2 ee oe . _ TRIUMPH!

TOMBSTONE, Ariz., April 11.—Chester L. Ainsworth, deputy sheriff of Cochise County and brother of Charles A. Ains- worth, Attorney-General of Arizona, was kiiled, and Edward Moore, a young cow- boy, was mortally wounded Saturday at Wilgus, in the Chiracahua Mountains, 25 miles from Pearce. The murderers were two brothers named Halderman, for whom warrants had been issued in Pearce, charg- ing them with stealing. The warrants were given to Ainsworth, who had been friendly to the Haldermans. On the way he was joined by Moore. The Halderman brothers offered no resistance. and Ainsworth, taken off his guard, told them to go into the house and get what they wanted to take with them. The broth- ers were thus enabled to secure their rifles, opening fire unexpectedly on the officer and his companion. A posse of 50 cowboys is scouring the mountains for the Haldermans and will hang them. Ainsworth’s body will be sent to his old home in Flint, Mich. AMERICA’S NEW WARSHIPS.

SS ANOTHER SUICIDE GROWS OUT OF THE DREYFUS AFFAIR. HENRY’S SECRETARY A VICTIM. ——— He Kills Himself When Called Upon to Go to Paris and Give His Testimony. PARIS, April 1).—In preference to re- turning to Paris to tell what he knew about the Dreyfus case M. Louilller, former private secretary of lLlseutenant-Colonel Henry, last night killed himself at St. Quentin, Aisne, where he had resided after the suicide of Henry. The Eclaire this morning publishes the deposition of Senator Trarieux, made before the Court of Cassation, in the Dreyfus re- vision proceedings, in the course of which M. Trarieux said that Count Tornielli Bru. sati Di. Vergane, the Itallfan Ambassador to France, told him when the ‘Matin printed a fac simile of the bordereau that it was a flashlight reproduction, that the docu- ments mentioned had been given to the German attache by a person other than Dreyfus, and that the handwriting of the borderea"! was that of the officer who gave the documents to the attache. Comparison, he sald, would be easy, as the attache pos- sessed voluminous correspondence of that officer. Count Tornielll further told him that an attache of the Italian Embassy had shown him a letter from the German attache stating this and asserting that he did not know Dreyfus, and attributing to Count Esterhazy the act for which the court- martial had wrongly found Dreyfus guilty. The Figaro, in continuing publication of the testimony given before the Court of Cassation, the source of which Is still veiled in mystery, says that M. Casimir-Perier began his testimony by the statement that Jan. 6, 1895, he received a vieit from Count vor Munster, the German Ambassador, who communicated to him an official and per- sonal demand of Prince Hohenlohe. the German Chancellor, that he, as President of the republic, should formally deny that the German Embaséy was involved in the Dreyfus affair. M. Casimir-Perler told the court that, fn reply to Von Munsfer, he informed the German Ambassador that the document in question had been found at the German Embassy, but that nothing had been proved tO show that the Embassy solicited the document and that the Government did not wish to hold the Embassy responsible. It was” sufficient—the apers having bee# found at a foreign Embassy and presum. ably emanating from a French officer—to fix the guilt of that officer. On the Ambassador's request he appoint- ed another interview, but a few days later incident might be regarded as closed. M. Casimir-Perier said he desired to place it upon record that an act of treason had not placed/’a foreign power in possession of security. He concluded by asserting that he knew no other facts and had no knowl- He declared he had never heard them al- luded to except in M. Paschal Grousett's interpellation. M. la Roche, former Resident-General tn Madagascar, who was called for the de- fense, testified that Capt. Fraey-Staetter, a member of the court-martial, told him Dreyfus was convicted for giving out plans of the Fortress of Nice. BOUGHT BY VANDERBILTS. Terminal to Trans-Continental System Secured at San Francisco. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., April 11.—The Vanderbilis have secured in this city a western terminal to their lately bought Saninenitinesaal railway system. By a deal consummated in New York on the 6th of the present month they secured of Behrend Joost and his associates the rights of way and the franchises of the West Shore Rail- way from San Francisco to Santa Cruz via Colma and Pescadero, and for some weeks past they have had practical control of the Monterey-Fresno line from onte- rey to Fresno through the eoast range via Walker Pass. From Fresno a connection with the road they are building from Sait Lake to Los Angeles is simply a matter of laying ties and tracka. Between the terminal of the Weaet Shore line at Santa Cruz and the Monterey-Fres- no line, there ‘s a gap of forty-four miles extending around Monterey Bay, which ta covered by neither franchise nor right of way, and the agent for the Vanderbilts in this city, Gen. Hart, anticipates no trouble in acquiring one of them. The contract with the West Shore people was signed in this city for the West Shore Railroad Company on March 2% by R. 8. Thornton, the President, and by R. J. Wil- lats, the Secretary. Then it was for- warded to New York and signed by Free- man and James, agents of the Vanderbilts, on the Sth Iinat. Gen.

Wynant, who is a well-known man, testified that at 5:30 o’clock, on the evening of October 7, he saw Mrs, George ass by as he stepped out of Capthorn’a clothing store. She was going west on Tus- carawas street. ‘‘How was she dressed?’ “In black,” was the answer without hesitation. ‘‘Was she carrying anything?’ “Yes, a small cape on her arm.” “What color?’ ‘Black.’ AS will be seen later, black {s a most import- ant color in this case. On a cross-exam- ination Wynant was unable to say where , Mrs. George had come from when he saw | her on the street. Hie was positive about the time for he was hurrying to make purchases before the store closed and he noticed that it was 9:20 before he went into the store.

SPRINGFIELD, lll, April 10.—The race track b'll is practically dead. While it was advanced in the House at last night's ses- sion, there seems to be not one chance in a hundred that it can pass. Speaker Sher- man is opposed to the measure. and his hostility at this time, when the session is drawing to a close, is fatal. Speaker Sher- man says frankly that he does not like the bill, and that he will prevent its pass- age if he can do so. The bill has opposition besides Sherman's, however. Many vf the Republican members who |have an eye to the possible politics in | bills passed by this General Assembly pro- fess to think that the passage of a racing bill would not be a good campaign docu- ment for the Republicans In 1900, and that the Democrats might utilize it as an argu- ment for their own side.

JMEFFERSON CITY, Mo., April 11.—The | Senate to-day passed the Farris beer in- | Spection bill by a vote of WD to 9. When Senator Farris ¢alled up the bill | |for final passage this morning Senators | 'Schweickaidt, Mott and Burkhead made tne chief speeches in opposition. The first de- voted his attention to showing that the ad- ditional revenu@ was not needed. Senuator Mott tried to prove that the brewers are | now overtaxed and cannot stand any addi- , tional burden. He gave figures, which he evideti- thought proved his point. He said ' the twerty-one breweries in St. Louis were capitalized at $33,000,000; they manufactured year ~ 060,000 barrels of beer, 1,000,000 'of which was sold outside the State, and under this bill would be exempt from taxa- tion. leaving 1,060,000 barrels subject to tax- ation at 40 cents a barrel, or a total tax of 324,000 alnually. Upon this investment and earning power, the brewers pay the State of Missouri and the City of St. Louis a total in license taxes of $137,400. The taxes are as fol- lows: Merchants’, city and State licenses, $31,000; sundry licenses, vehicles, etc., $3100; special license, sprinkling taxes, etc., $3300; ad valorem taxes, $100,000; total $137,400: but they pay the government $3,238,400 annually. Senator Morton, favoring the bill, took the gzroand that the breweries had been fos- tered by Missouri and the time had come when they must lend a hand in supporting the State. He said that farm property had supported the State long enough. Senator Drabelle took the ground that the Democratic party could not afford to legislate against the brewbtries and pointed out*that they had been floundering about on the revenue question, striking at all the | AS. | | | | MUSLIN. 2:c Yard wide Sea- island Un- bleached Mus- lin, worth 4c.

He reminded the Republicans that their party had put a war tax of $1 a barrel upon beer and that if that tax was not class legislation this one cannot be.

The Post-Dispatch feels impelled to call off the editorial writ- ers, paragraphers and humorists from their eager mastication of Judge Peabody for his alleged decision in favor of a wife- beater on the ground that a man is justified in occasionally administering « moderate beating to a refractory wife. We are sorry for the editorial writers, paragraphers and hu- morists, because the decision was a delightful thing in its way, so full of the charm of medievalism and Dogberryian asi- ninity that it offered a fruitful theme for denunciation, satire and humor. The masters of invective, the satirists and the ,humorists in prose and poetry are reveling in the opportunity. The rivals of St. Louis are pointing the finger of scorn at her srieitting her courts to be encumbered with a Judge who pats wife-beaters on the back. All of this wouid be just and proper, if Judge Peabody had rendered the decision. But he swears he did not say a word credited to him. In confirmation of his Statement he points to @ long list of lurid lectures and heavy penalties imposed upon Wife-beaters who have been haled into his court. The de- cision was a mere figment of an imaginative reporter. The Post-Dispatch takes peculiar pleasure in correcting thig error, not only because it redeems the police court bench of St. Louis from the stain of protecting wife-beuters, but because » the opportunity to turn away the shafts of invective and satire » Beast partially revealed. from Judge Peabody is so rare. — SS = Gow History Repeats Itself.—The scientific Papers are assert- ing that Mr. Tripler cannot have produced ten gallons of liquid air by the consumption of three gallons.

In the uncensored dispatch from Manila, via Hong Kong.

The important feature in this is that the dispatch is not censored. The American people are not permitted to know | how their affairs are progressing. The dispatches direct from : are falsified. The truth comes lagging a week behind wr t. , © American executive is at present wielding despotic the like of which are unknown in any civilized coun- ide of Russia. And he seeks to maintain the despotism to censorship, which in Russia excites the indigna- m and horror of the whole world. Why ie 1 that what is detestable in Russia passes without public protest in the United States? Must we submit to / this assumption of tyrannical power in the cause of “‘benevo- lent assimilation?” i Governor Roosevelt has not words to express his contempt . - | for reformers. He calls them “goo goos” and Says they help » te elect rogues to office. Perhaps so, but there is a rumor , about that they helped to elect Governor Roosevelt. - -— - = — THE COFFIN TRUST. tt ie @ good thing, if true, that St. Louis coffin manufac- _ turers have refused to join the coffin trust. They will be wise to keep out of such a combine, for it can hardly be a success. » The monopolizing of coffin making will not be an easy task. . ” Now, can the Chicago University hope for trust patronage while Prof. Small denounces the trusts? Mr. Rockefeller can- not withdraw what he has already given unconditionally, but will he gice“gny more? Dr. Harper is in-a vety painful posi- tion. Will the professor of Political Economy relieve his dis- tress by promptly resigning? — —— Evidently somebody is blundering at Pana, Ill. Sheriff Downey charges the riot to the conduct of the troops while there. He insisis that the troops are not needed. Gov. Tan- Pana. Between the two a riot has occurred, in which seven persons were killed and ten wounded. The situation at Pama is intolerable and is a discreditable reflection on the great State of Illinois. The menacing and-lawless conditions should be dealt with effectively by the. authorities. a 4 A GREAT PEACE OPPORTUNITY. It is reported that the diplomatic representatives in Wash- ington are sneering at the approaching international peace conference for twe feasons: One is the gluomy outlook in international politics, which per. @s univereal war rather than universal peace. | The other is the general distrust of the sincerity of the Czar's disarmament proposal. Surely if the nations are on the verge of universal war there could be no more timely occasion for a peace confer- ence to avert, if possible, the horror of such a catastrophe. The threatening situation, if no conference had been pro- posed, would be an overwhelming reason for holding one, and should stimulate the delegates to extraordinary efforts to ar- rive ata satisfactory conclusion. If the Czar’s proposal is insincere, the conference should utilize the opportunity to turn his trick to good account by sincere and earnest efforts to enforce action in the cause of peace and bring about a sincere understanding among the nations, All the reasons urged against the peace conference are in reality strong arguments in its favor. The delegates will have @ great opportunity to serve the interest of the people of the world. ~~ Perhaps Gov. Roosevelt has really turned his back upon re- form. How could a reformer work a national convention? = = — eae THE PRIZE OF BEAUTY, The Paris “Beauty Show,” an account of which is published in the Sunday Post-Dispatch, is a revival in modern form, subject to modern conditions, of the great competitions of the Greeks, amcng whom the prize for perfection of form and features was a coveted honor, sought by persons of both Sexes and all classes. This competition will probably not be so simple as its ancient original. So far as is known the Greeks attended only to the sensible contour of the body, and gave little or no heed to the intelligence expressing itself in eyes and the play of feature. But the modern man cannot ignore this beauty of intelligence, even if he would. It is probably—to most ob- servers—the most conspicuous element in the sum of human charms. However acceptable the physical form may be, it leaves the observer cold unless perfected by the light within, illuminating the whole person and quickening the body with the life of the spirit. The Paris.jury will require something more than critical judgment. They must have a rarer understanding and an ap- preciation of “‘that which passes show,” and they must have eyes to see what Wordsworth called “the light that never was on land or sea.”’ But on a lower plane they must have courage, for there are 222 women in this competition, each one of whom knows that she is entitled to the first prize. “We are writing a page of our great country’s history which it will be very difficult for even the most enthusfastic American to explain and justify,’ says Bishop Coleman of Delaware. The Philippine policy is troubling the American conscience all over the country. = = - =. The powers of Europe would like to promise at the coming peace conference to go and sin no more, but not one of them is willing to give up any of the plunder of past misdeeds, Chicago has almost every kind of enterprise but sanitary enterprise. She is therefore trying to force her sewage upon the people of Illinois and Missouri. , Fire-proofing appears to be the one great desideratum in the building of American homes and hotels. The abodes of the stone age were safer than ours. Why has not the Administration dared to have all the news from Manila published? — a ingland does not manifest much inclination to buy our Filipino insurrection. “What to do with China” may yet break up several European powers. = SS S rw POST-DISPATCH SNAP SHOTS. Rooscvelt is doing some rough riding over the ‘‘reformers.”’ The Easter hat was for the first time fully vindicated yesterday. Wiil there be peace in the Philippines before it appears in Pana? Ex-Gov. Flower take&® quite a roseate view of Wall Street's future as a lamb pasture, If McKisson was tricky in the Cleveland election, Senator Hanna must h@ve been greatly shocked. , Kautz is a good German name, but doubtless Kaiser Billy is just as mad as if it were something elsé. As oysters collect on the bottoms of our vessels in Manila har- bor, the Philippines are clearly our oyster. It would be odi if the Czar’s Peace Conference resulted in an Armageddon, but such an outcome does not appear an imposei- bility. The man who is seeking for something for nothing will do well to keep out of Wall street during ex-Gov. FPiower’s fishing vacatiors. Li Hung Chang appears to have been doing the Balshagzar act while investigating the Yellow River floods, without incurring Bel- shazzar’s danger. Every district in Wisconsin has a candidate for Governor. The Badgers would soon be governed too much if all their great men were allowed to manage for them.

The island of Ferro is one of the largest in the Canary group, and it has received its name on account of an iron-bound soil, through which no river nor stream flows. In the midst of the island there grows a tree known as :the raining tree, the leaves of which are long and narrow. It continues tn constant verdure winter and summer, and the branches are covered with a cloud which is never dispelled, but, reso'ving itself into a moisture, causes to fall from its leaves a very clear water in such abundance that cisterns placed at its foot to receive it are never empty.—La- dies’ Home Journal.

It resem- bies the American oak, and its fruit, ftom which the butter is prepared, is not unlike the olive.

Street Commissioner Blames President McMath, Holman and Colby for Blocking Street Im- provements. The liveliest kind of a row developed Ot Tuesday's meeting of the Board of Pub- lic Imporvements during the considerution Ol a general asphalt epécification. At one time the members grew personal, | and uncomplimentary remarks were freely exchatged. The Board adjourned without taking decided action on the question un- der discussion. The measure fought to provide a speci- fication that would be so genetfal in char- acter as to include all kinds of asphalt. President McMath held that in this way only could free competition be possible, and the city pena - the lowest figures. This was his conténtion since months ago, when the subject was brought up. Mucn time was spent in framing the ordinance and then much more in getting legal and contractors’ opinions on it. With President McMath were Water Commissioner Hol- manand Sewer Commissioner Colby. The Board went into committee of the whole Tuesday for the further considera- tion of the ordinance. Street Commissioner Milner opposed it vigorously on the ground that it was im- practicable. To support his view he sub- mitted opinions from contractors who con- demned it, and the policy of the city of Buffalo, which has 300 miles of the best as- phalt streeta in the world. All etated that to maké a contract hold, the ordinance had to specify the kind of aephalt to be used. Mr. Holman miidly asked what part Mr. Milner took in framing the Board's general epecifications. “I am glad to say. none at all,’’ replied the street commissioner with a show of irritation, “‘and I might ask what part you took. None at all, I can answer. You eat there a bump on 4 jog, through the entire proceedings.’ Mr. Holman replied in kind, and the President decided to avert hostilities by postponing further consideration of the measure. After the meeting had adjourned, Street Commissioner Milner directly charged President McMath, Commissioners Colby and Holman with blocking street improve- ment work for which he (Milner) is blamed by the public. “It's all McMath's hobby,” said Mr. Mil- ner. “and it’s that hobby that thas delayed street work and Will delay it all summer unless he comes down. Holman and Colby vote with him on everything in my depart- ment. thus shutting me off. If it had not been for their opposition I would have had Grand avenue paved from Laclede to HWas- ton avenues last fall, and not have to listen to the complaints of the propérty owners and citizens. That is how am Hhlamed for what is not my fault. Not only would I have paved Grand avenue, but many other streets. But no, my work is held up for a hobby. If there is any- thing wanted in the sewer or water de- partments, they get it, and I don't try to tel] them their business, but as sooon as I want something, they pose as ex- perts and hold up the work. Holman went to Washington to get figures on this as- phalt proposition. Even with that he could not patch a hole in the street, and while Il am no expert I can do that. As for there being no competition under exist- ing conditions, that is nonsense. The two big laKe asphalt companies, the Trinidad and Bermuda, are competitors, and I have natural rock asphalt thrown at me from a dozen points in Kentucky and Southwest Missour'!. “It's a plain case of riding a hobby and letting the streets go to the devil.”’ CHLOROFORM ON THE STREET Highwaymen Have Invented a New Device for Robbing the Un- wary Citizen. John Hughes, James Nolan and Tom Ma- her have been positively identified as the men who knocked August Mueller down. chloroformed him and robbed him Monday night. He swore to information Tuesday and warrants were issued by Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Johnson. charging them with robbery in the first degree. The use of chloroform in highway rob- eries is new in St. Louis. Mueller is the ret man to be chloroformed on the street. Mueller is an ongeers of the Anheuser- Busch Brewery. je lives at Til ®@outh Becond atreet. About & hight he was walking along Biddle street, between Broadway and Sixth atreet. A crowd of young mén were standing at the mouth of the alley. Two of them got in front of him and detained him with trivial versation. One of them suddenly struck m in the neck, knocking him down. Be- fore he could arise or even make an outcry a cloth saturated with chloroform was pressed over his mouth and nostrils. He stru gled an instant, but he was held down unti is struggles ceased and he was un- conscious. When he recovered the crowd had disap- peared. So had his silver Watch, his gold Plated chain and $6. He went to the Fourth District Station and told what had occurred. From the description furnished by Muel- ler Officers Knollhoff and Bolgér arrested Nolan and Hughes. After Mueller had identified him Maher came to the station to inquire about Nolan and Mueller tdenti- fied him ae the third man. LECTURED BY JUDGE CLARK.

GORDON THE MAN BLAMED. THEY QUESTION THE ACTS OF RE- CEIVER BARLOW. — Effort Made to Show That for Political Purposes Solely Certain Docu- ments Implicating the Sena- tor Were Made Public. PHILADELPHIA, ~Pa., April 11.—The |trial of é@x-United States Senator Quay on | charges of conspiracy began in earnest to- day when one witness after another was called by the commonwealth to tell what ‘each knew about the case. Five minutes | before court opened thé ex-sehatér and his son, Richard, came in. Mr. Quay was emiling and his features bore a hopeful expression as he responded to the greet- ings of friends. He sat quietly through the entire session, and was apparently the most unconcerned | person in the room. | Thomas W. Barlow, the receiver of the ‘bank, who was on the stand at adjourn- ment yesterday and identified the books ; and papers found in the bank upon as- ‘suming h‘s duties, was croSs-examined by Mr. Shapley, of counsel for Mr. Quay. Mr. Shapley had not proceeded far with the cross-examination before his line of questions apparently indicated his purpose to prove that the whole fabric of the charges against Mr. Quay were the result of a conspiracy. After bringing out the fact that Mr. Barlow was assistant to the former District Attorney Graham during the time he acted as receiver and waé busy with other duties, thé witness was told to tell all the circumstances of his removal! of certain letters, papers and books from the private desk of Cashier Hop- kins. Amo these books is the one known aa ‘The Red Book,” which the prosecution alleges shaws that Hopkins computed in- terest on ‘State funds which he deposited to Mr. Quay’s credit. The papers also in- cluded thé Quay letters, among them the “Plum Tree’ document. Mr. Barlow, in reply, a@ pérson in Harrisburg, whom [ did not then and do not now know. spoKe to mé in this city over the long-distance telephone. He sald: “‘l want to say to you that an attempt will be made to-night to taKe certain docu- ments out of Hopkins’ desk, so they had | better be taken by you.’ As a result of | this, I went to the bank, accompanied by 'a policeman, broke open the desk and took }them out.”’ : | The witness said he notified Judge Gor- | don, then one of the Common Pleas Judges, ‘of his intention, the latter being private and confidential adviser to James Mc- Manes president of the bank. For about ‘three hours that night he left the docu- ments in the possession of Judge Gordon in a trust company’s office. Afterward these papers were virtually in Judge Gordon's ‘custody until early in September. | Barlow explained that Mr. McManes had agreed to pay the debts of the bank, and con- e should know of the contents of the peated and papers. Mr. Barlow Aenled knowledge of the pho- of Quay’s letters for the use He said he did béen taken by to David Mar- said: ‘“‘March @ not know that they had maker had taken them to New York and shown them to Democratic National Com- mitteeman James M. Guffev. in an effort to make Judge Gordon the Democratic can- didate for Governor of Pennsylvania last | year. | Mr. Barlow denied Knowledge that before he received the anonymous telephone mes- sage from Harrisburg, Judge Gordon had opened the private desk and examined the books and papers, He thought State Bank- nig Commissioner Gilkeson had seen the documents prior to their coming into his (Barlow's) possession. He stated that early in September last he showed them to Attv. Gen. NcCormick in Harrisburg. Mr. Shap- ley asked witness if the Attorney Genera! had not told him that there was nothing in them on which to base a civil or crim- inal action. The question was objected to by the District Attorney, and the objec- tion was sustained. Witness denied that any money or securt- ties of the bank had been in thé possession of Judge Gordon. He also denied positively that Judge Gordon Was present when he broke open the cashier's desk. Mr. Shapley put a long line of questions to the witness, the obvious design being to sustain the contention of the defense that the memorandum books taken from a pri- vate desk were not bank property and therefore not admissible as evidence. This j ended the cross-examination. On redirect examination Barlow said Banktig Commissioner Gilkeson had pogses- o'clock Monday gsion of Hopkins’ Keys and had examined the contents of the private desk two or three days before he was appointed receiver. ‘The papers in the desk were mixed up and in a confused condition. The ‘“‘Red book’’ was handed to Mr. Bar- low and he declared emphatically that it is now in tire same condition ase when it came into his possession. Mr. Shapley endeavored to make the wit- ness say that there was among the papers an _ envelope with a Harrisburg postmark addressed to President McManes, which fits the letter from Treasurer Haywood to the bank, saying that if a loan of $100,000 N@ilees than | is made to Senator Quay's son h keep the State balance at $600,000 unti} pte payment of the loan. The prosecution claims that although the letter is addressed to President McManes for purposes of for- mality, it Was sent direct to Cashier Hop- kins, as hud been the custom of Mr. Hay- wood. Judge Gordon was the next witness. He identified the papers and books that had been placed in his possession by the re- ceiver of the bank and esaid they are un- doubtedly in the same condition now as , When he received them. Cross-examined by Mr. Shields. Judge Gordon sald he dia not gain his knowledge of the papers in his Capac ity as counsel for Mr. Metta nes but a@s his Intimate personal friend. “Who was the person to ehowed the papers?’’ “The man who advi istence, David Martin. “Who next?” on ae ae nope hal The books never were in Mr. Way . er’'a custody.

Bhields endeavored to show a con- nection between Judge Gordon's guberna- tofial candidacy and his possession of let- terg compromising Senator Quay, but his questions were fuled out. Judge Gordon declared he never took a / paper or anything e@lse from the cashier's desk and never saw the Quay letters and a red book until shown them by the fre- celver, At this juncture the District Attorney of- fered the first of the famous letters in evi- dence.

The track Was in good shape, but slow, and the mile in the Oaks was run in the siow time of l:4o%4. At Newport Honeywood and John F. Vogt were two good things that went through. They were piayed heavily at the track and in the pool rooms. Roysterer. badly ridden by Scherer, won the mile handicap at Bennings. and the feature at Inglesftie was taken by Adolph Spreckics. This will be a great week at Benninegs. Tt will also be the closing week of racing at that course. At its close the horses wiil be transferred to the Aqueduct track. During the week six stakes will. be de- cided, and all of them promise some good sport.

The Washington handicap, for 3-vear-olds and upward, at a mile, and the Bennings Steeplechase, over a two and one-half mile course, are the other events. The second Washington Nursery is a very open affair up to date, although the majority of horse- men concede the race to Messrs. A. H. & D. H. Morris. They will hive a strong trio in the filly Primrose Day and the colts Specific and Prestidigitator. The Morr’s stable also has a strong hand in the Wash- ington handicap with the Duke of Middie- burg.

Jack Taylor and Theo. Breitenstein, two St. Louis boys, made a hit at Cincinnat! sunday. Jack did not take into account the frost that was in the air, but ‘“‘sent’’ ’em through like he meant it. “Go easy, Jack. Don't put the pressure on. It's a little chilly,”” warningly shouted Capt. Ewing. : “I can't help it, Cap,” laughingly replied the big twirler. “I feel good, and I have got to let it out of me. I can go a week at this clip without getting sore’’ Jack not only pitched hard, but he hit the ball on the nose. Out of five times up he ot tavo hits, one a beautiful two-bagger. fe is going to help the team in another re- spect. He is a first-class cvacher. You don't have t% urge him to Hfe h:.s voice. He goes to the coaching line every time there is a chance. He was up heiping the Kids in nearly every inning yesterday. Willigness is a taking feature with base- ball rooters. Jack has the crowd already. Breitenstein played a great game at sec- ond. Several of his pickups and stops were up to a McPhee standard. He also got a difficult fly. When Breit quits pitching he . can hold on in the game either as an in- yiclder or an outpost. There are some in- Tielders in the league at present that Breit could give a good start and a beating. Rusie has not yet joined the New Yorks. The other day he received a letter from Manager Day recommending that he join the New Yorks at Savannah and play good ball this coming season, trusting to the fut- ure to rectify whatever injustice he had to complain of, The proposition was not ac- cepted, Rusie preferring to take no chances, although he wrote a pleasant letter to Mr. Day, for whom he has a great admiration, in which, however, he reiterated his deter- mination not to play for less than he re- ceived last year. Mr. Rusie this week would not say that he contemplated a suit against Freedman for the abrogation of the reserve rule. On the contrary, he said there would be no developments until Freedman made the next move. Ruste continues to train every day at Indianapolis, and he is getting in good condition. However, he would take no chances in the cold, raw atmosphere last Sunday, and in the game with the Cleve- lands he floated the ball over the plate. Rusie is much opposed to the balk rule, al- though he usually depends upon the catch- er and rapid handling of the ball to prevent arunner stealing a base, Stanley Robison, who has returned to St. Louis from Indianapolis, speaking of Lave Cross, says there is no intention on the purt .of the management to trade him. “There was a talk,’ said Mr. Robison, “that he would go to the St. Louis Club, but we have a go man on third at St. Louis in Wallace. There is not a particle of truth in the oft-reiterated report that (ross is destined for Cincinnati. On the contrary Cincinnati has never had a word to say since we secured a foothold in St. Louis. I believe that perhaps Cincinnat! did try to get him last fall, when the Bt. Louts club was controlled by a recelver, but the Court refused to let him go. Possi- bly Cincinnati would like to have him, but we do not propose to weaken what is galled the ClevGand Club. On thé contrary, we Will strengthen it wherever and whenever we ean, although we have got a pretty strong club as it stands, and we will finish in the first division, miurk that. We look for a good season. The twelve-club cir- cuit will be maintained, and I think the city of Cleveland is showing e little kindlier feeling toward the home nine. There is no war to distract pubMc attention, and now that it is known that we are a fixture no doubt but that Cleveland will respond al! right. So far we have had no chance to get into condition. We reached Terre Haute last Monday in a snow storm, and there has been but one or two days since that any practicing could be done. We have a game or two booked at Terre Haute and this is all we will have before the reg- ular season opens on Saturday next with us at St. Louie.”’ SAM HARRIS EXPLAINS. Tells Why McGovern Did Not Come to Cincinnati. NEW YORK, April U.—Sam H. Harris, manager of Terry McGovern, to-day stated that McGovern would not go to Cincinnatl to meet John Richie next Saturday night. MeGovern and Richie were matched to mect before the Stag Athletic Club. When asked hie reason for not sending Mc- Govern ta Cincinnat!, Mr. Harris said: ‘‘Refore the match was arranged with Richie the Broadway Athletic Club had arranged to have McGovern meet some one on April B. It was the intention on the part of the management of the club to have Richie meet McGovern. They could not get Richie’s services, as the Stag Athletic Club got Richie first. As McGovern was anxious to meet Richie, and seeing that we could not get Richie here, I agreed to let McGovern go to Cincinnatl and meet Richie on the 15th. In the meantime the Broadway had eecured Joe Bernstein to meet McGovern. “As they had the option on McGovern’s time they refused to permit me to accept the Cincinnati date unless McGovern would be permitted to fight according to straight Marquis of Queensberry rules, that is, to break at orders of the referee, You see McGovern always fights that way. and as a business proposition the Broadway peo- ple did not want him to take any chances in view of his fight with Bernstein, to whom McGovern is conceding eight pounds. I telegraphed the Stag Club, stating that if McGovern was allowed to fight according to Queensberry rules that he would go on and meet Richie. We do not mind about meeting Richie in clean breaks, but the Broadway people objected and refused to let us go. Manager Kelly answered that there must be clean breaks; that the au- - sn ee would not stand for anything else.” ‘Ia MeGovern afraid to meet Richie?’ Mr. Harris was asked. ‘Certainly not,”’ was the emphatic answer to this. ‘“‘We will go to Cincinnati a week after the Bernstein fight and meet Richie, winner to take all. It is my candid opinion that Richie would not last long. If Richie refuses to fight, winner to take all, we will let him euggest how to spit the money. He may name his own weight. Now, isn't that fair enough?” _. INDIANA-ILLINOIS LEAGUE. One Has Been Formed That Looks Like a Winner.

LOUIS PLAYERS GOT IN A GOOD DAY MONDAY. TEBEAU TALKS ABOUT GRIFFIN. Even If That Famous Fielder Does Go Back on Him He Will Be Able to Get Along. Special to the Post-Dispatch. HOT SPRINGS, Ark., April 11.—Monday was an ideal day, and the game between the St. Louis regulars and a picked team drew out the largest crowd of the season. The game was full of life, but was too one sided to be really interesting. The regulars piled up seven runs in the first inning and had things pretty much their own way all through, winning by a score of 13 ta 7, . Powell and Young pitched for the regu- lars. Zimmer's three-base hit to the steep hill in left fleld was one of the longest drives ever seen at the park. Speaking of Mike Griffin to your cor- respondent, Manager Tebeau said that as he had heard nothing direct from the star center flelder.he did not Know just what Mike's plans are. “If Griffin has determined to retire from the diamond it seems &@trange that he should come to that conclusion so suddenly,’ said Pat. “‘When his re.ease was purchased he said he was esatisfied with the terms offered him and that he would report just as soon as he had effected a settlement with the Brooklyn Club. His brewery in- terests, and he has had them for a long time, have always been taken care of while he was away from home, and there seems to be no more reason for his presence in l’tica this season than at any Other time. If his determination to retire is final, and somehow I am of the opinion that he will reconsider. the country will lose its star eenter fielder and as good an all-around player as ever stepped into shoe leather. But I am fortified. Stenzel and young Heidrick are both playing fine ball. Mike's loss will not be so severe as many would think. Stenzel, fit and well, is a good batter and runner and above the average in fielding. ‘Heidrick, of course, has not had the ex- perience of Stenzel, but he is a natural batsman, a first-class fielder and is pick- ing up a lot of fine points in base run- ning. However, I hope to see Griffin play- ing: with us before the season is very far advanced.,”’ Stanley and De Haas Robison. Stanley Robison of the Cleveland base- ball team is in town again and De Haas Robison of the new St. Louis Club ig ex- pected from Cleveland Wednesday. | ANOTHER ON ANDY FREEDMAN. ‘‘Matinee Girl’? Introduces the New Yorker in a New Light. It seems that Mr. Freedman, president ‘of the New York Club, performs unpro- fessional feats of “throw-downs” in other than basebal] circles . The “‘Matinee Girl in the Dramatic Mirror writes: Andrew Freedman is another bright, shin- ing light at Lakewood. I. remember him three years ago, when he was young and handsome. Now success has made him stout and ponderous. His heart may be the same, but I hope it isn’t. I'll tell you why. I recollect meeting him one day at a baseball game and he tInsisted on my accepting a box for “Chimmie Fadden” at the then Standard Theater—since conse- crated to the on and off—especially off. Il forget now whether he owned the theater or was an angel, or what it was, but I must have a box for that night. He would telephone down, etc., etc. I recollect hurry- ing home and telegraphing about a 4ollar and eighty cents’ worth to different peo- ple I knew—lame, halt and blind—and they all came. And when we get to the theater the man at the box office actually sneered at us. He said he had heard all sorte of games for beating a box office, but he never had six people try it all together before, So I was glad to see that remorse, perhaps, had blighted the debonair. beauty that Freedman boasted in the days when he had to “manage” the Standard Theater. Caught on the Fly. The new St. Louis team will be at home to friends Thursday, The old Browns created a sensation at Indianapolis Sunday. They won a game there. The Chicagos are at Kansas City and the Louisvilles and Cincinnati's are at home. Baseball] is the principal sport these days with Uncle Sam's soldiers in Cuba and Porto Rico. The Unions and the Columbias, two crack colored clubs, are squabbling over Pitcher Bert Jones. The Senators should hereafter be called “The Auctioneers,’’ for every time Wagner gets a good player, out coes the red flag. The Brooklyns and Baltimores will wear uniforms exactly alike this year, even to the big “B’"’ on the pocket of the left breast. Heinie Peitz has the honor of making the longest hit ever made on the Columbus, Ga., grounds. It wag a home run over the left field fence. Johnnie Long, brother of more famous Herman of that name, Nas been training with the St. Louis team. Young Long looks like a comer. He has the style of his brother. A feature of the Phillies’ practice at Charlotte, N. C., wasa-an evening ‘‘school,’’ in which the players study and decuns the playing rules. But few players are fully up in the rules, “There's one tip to play down the line,”’ Says Barney Dreyfuss. “That is. that Louisville will play the Season through. We’ ll make money, too. They can take away our Sunday games, but they can’t keep the people away.”’ Billy Hamilton expects to make the rec- ord of his life on the bases this season, as he will have a fair show to get away from the bases and will not have to suffer the The — RATIONAL, SEASON The St. Louis Browns on the Way Home. cane jMoT SPRING ~ Sloan Was Unplaced.

PINKHAM NO. 67,104] ‘‘T cannot express my gratitude to you for the good that Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound has done for me. I have taken five bottles of the Compound and two boxes of Liver Pills and feel better in every respect. I had suffered for years with dropsy; the veins in my limbs burst, caused from the pressure of the water. I had the worst kind of kidney trouble, faint- ing spells, and I could not stand long atatime. I also had female weakness and the doctor said there was a tumor in my left side. The pains I had to stand were something dreadful. A friend handed me alittle book of yours, so I got your medicine and it has saved my life. I felt better from the first bottle. The bloating and the tumors pain. Iam still using the Vegetable Compound and hope others may find relief as I have done from its use.”— Miss N. J. Locxuxgaart, Box 16, Exiza- BETH, Pa. Only the women who have suffered with female troubles can fully appre- ciate the gratitude of those who bave been restored to health. _Mrs. Pinkham responds quickly and withoutcharge toall letters from suffer ing women. Her address is Lynn, Mass. | constant balking of pitchers clever enough have all gone and I do not sufferany. = to hoodwink umpires. So far none of the have threatened to revolt because so few Sunday games have been scheduled for them. No Sunday games means more rest for the Colonels, and batl players, as a genera] rule, don't object to rest. Jake Morse says that ‘“‘there is just as much difference between what called ‘ginger’ and rowdyism as there is between day and night. There can be plenty of ginger in baseball Without the proceedings being in the least objectionable.’’ George Bristoe, who ts practicing with Tebeau's St. Louis team, at Hot Springs, has been signed for the Cleveland club, and will likely be stationed at short field. Bristoe formerly played In the Texas lea- gue, where he made a good reputation for himself. Louisville players is Continuous Pool Championship. CHICAGO, April 11.—Alfred De Oro se- cured a long lead over Jerome Keogh in the opening contest for the pool champion- ship of the world. The score: De Oro, 208; Keogh, 145. The Cuban had ik this own way all through the evening. He played marvelous 7, taking great chances and rarely Sestne a difficult shot. He closed the game in a sensational run of fifteen balls. taking a difficult combination on the last three and pocketing two balls. Keogh played a good uphill game and made De Oro work harder than the score indicates. The Chicken Fighters. CHICAGO, April ll.—John Mackin, of Chicago, and Frank P. Casey, of Black- stone. Mass., have signed articles for a cocking matin to be held in Baltimore April 7. The conditions are each man to show twenty-ene birds.

The Champion 135-Pound Men Will Both Arrive in This City on Wednesday. ' It is not generally known that the con- test between Frankie Noel of 8t} Louis and Morris Rauch of Chicago, to be held in the Business Men’s Gymnasjum on Thursday night, is to be to a decision. But such is to be the case and {the re- sult will be the liveliest set-to St. Louisans have ever witnessed. | “Tl am all right again,”” said Noe] this morning, ‘“‘and you can count on me mak- ing the pace warm for Rauch from the very start. “When I last met him I was overtrained and almost shoulder-bound. To-day 1 am myself again and on Thursday i think I will prove worthy of the confidence my friends have placed in me.” Noel certainly looks bigger, stronger and better than when he met Rauch before, and his friends believe he will make a far better showing against the Chicago bantam than he did when they last met. Jack Lewis of Chicago and Jimmy Mur- ray of Cincinnati, the champion 135-pound men of the West, who are to meet in the Business Men's Gymnasium Thursday night in a 15-round contest, wil] both ar- rive in St. Louis on Wednesday. Bach ise on feather-edge and in shape to put up a royal battle. Harry Sharpe, who has been appointed referee of the Business Men's Gymnasium, will referee both of these contests. Australian Jimmy Ryan and Frank Pur- cell have been matched to fight before the West End Club. Bob Douglas called at the Post-Dispatch office Tuesday morning and announced that he would fight the winner of this fight for as much money as he cared to put up. Gus Ruhlin and Peter Maher have begun to train for thelr 2-round bout to be held at the Lenox A. C. April 25. Charley Goff will train Ruhlin, while Pete Lowery will attend to Maher's wants. Charles Lawler, the Louisvilla heavy- weight, who was knocked out by Jim Hall in Memphis, has offers to meet Doc Payne in Dayton and Jack Smith in St. Lous. Lawler is now at Hot Springs, Ark. Harry Forbes will not meet Terry Mc- Govern in New York April 28 after all. The Brooklyn boy wanted to come in at catch and Forbes would not stand for Joe Bernstein, the husky New York featherweight, will take on Terry instead, and the bout will be decided at the Broad- way club. McGovern must be growing rap- idly. Bernstein can not do less than 124 pounds and be right, and he ts known as a tough proposition at that weight. Only a week ago he went 20 fast rounds to a draw with Dave Sullivan. McGovern will prob. ably mill hereafter with the 122-pounders. o-—---- Frank Dayton of the In Old Kentucky Company in a letter to the Post-Dispatch -from New York, says: ‘Jim Corbett has fallen into the business of a hotel keeper as a duck falls into a clear pond. His place is a hummer. It was formerly Parker's, who retired and sold out to Billy Mould, who in turn dis- posed of his interest to Charlie White, one of Corbett’s trainers for the Carson City fight. White sold out to Jim, 6o I heard, and to John Cons:dine, who is in with Jim. The place is situated at the junction of ) Broadway and Thirty-third street and is a fine place, consisting of a grand bar, retir- ing room and restaurant. The front is fashioned after the San Francisco idea of cigar counters. That is, it is all open, and one can pass in from the vestibule where the cigar stand I!s,'to the bar, which is most elaborate, oO a scalloped pattern (something quite new) surmounted by fine stands of electric l'ghts. The bar is ma- hogany and resewood and the mirror is formed like a huge race track, studded with incandescent bulbs. Ilectric lights, of course, are everywhere. The retiring room is fitted with elegant leather arm chairs and couches and a writing desk for the use of patrons is a feature. The whole place is a dream, and what Is better, business for the boys is great. Jim is in fine trim, better than ever, and I truly believe could do surprising things in the ring with the best of them were he so disposed. But his place now is his pet hobby and we here all wieh him the ‘best of luck.” Pfeffer for Umpire. Fred Pfeffer's friends are still engaged in making an earnest fight to secure him an appointment as a National League umpire It ‘a said the list of ar@ointees gi¥en out as coming from President Young is not of- ficial, and that Pfeffer may yet secure a place. The appointments were not made known last year until forty-eight hours be- fore the opening game. The ex-king of the basemen ought to make a mode! official. Little Pimples Turn to Cancer. Oancer often results from an im- purity in the blood, inherited from generations back. Few people ate en- tirely free from some taint in the blood, and it is impossible to tell when. it will break out in the form of dreaded Can- cer. What has agpeenes to be a mere pimple or scratch has developed into the most malignant Cancer. “T had a severe Cancer which was at first enly s few blotches, that I thought would soon pass away. I was treated by several able physicians, but in spite of their efforts the n- eer spread until my con- dition became alarming.

ANDREWS’ LIFE Dead Millionaire Had Received an In- fernal Machine and a Number of Threatening Letters. NEW YORK, April 11.—It now develops that Wallace C. Andrews, who perished in the burning of his home last week, was a marked man. In addition to several threat- ening communications, early in February Mr. Andrews received an infernal machine through the malls. It was ‘a box about 5 inches long, 4 wide and 3 deep. It contained more than a pound of powder, with a piece of sulphur upon it. Matches were arranged along the under side of the cover, so that when the box was opened the matches would ignite and fire the explosive. The police and postoffice officials were working on the case at the time of Mr. Andrews’ death.

A, W. different— Tabor, Postmaster of Denver, and | ex- United States Senator from Colorado, re- called an interesting episode to the minds of three or four St. Louisans. Senator Tabor was secretly married in St. Louls while en route to Washington to begin his Congressiona! life. At that time he was divorced, as was his affianced bride. The Colorado man knew Col. D. P.. Dyer and sought his assiatance in securfng a marriage license, in suppressing the news of that issuance, . Col. Dyer gallantly responded, the permit was secured, the knot tied by Justice Young, and Senator and Mrs. Tabor proceeded joy- fully to Washington. The lady's brother accompanied her from Denver to St. Louis and witnessed the ceremony. few weeks after the couple reached Washington there was a church wedding. which was largely attended by the groom's cblieagues in the Senate and representa- tives of the diplomatic corps. The news of this ceremony was the first intimation the Western. public had of the Senator's marriage. The etory of the secret civil wedding Was not told, and for years relatives of the contracting Parties knew nothing of the short stop in St. Louls and the friend of “that's what I wanted ou to see, my dear.

ON A RAILWAY TRACK. > > = EXPRESS TRAIN WAS COMING. Miss Ada Roedesheimer Pulled the Baby From the Rails—And the Cowcatcher Tore Her Dress. Michael Thomas Wright of Belleville nar- rowly missed being food for greedy car wheels Monday evening. Michael Thomas is the 2-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Wright of %4 South High street. The Wright home is beside the Illinois Central track. Monday evening, a little after 6, the youngster started out to call on the Sauer family, across the track. The 5:19 express train was coming. Lizzie Sauer screamed, “‘Baby’s on the track.” That ended her usefulness. Paralysis came’ over her and all she could do was to stand and wait for the end. The little fellow had got across the first rail with some effort. He was nearly to the next when he saw the train coming. He tried to hurry, stumbled and fell, with his head and arms across the rail. Miss Ada Roedesheimer, a sister of Mrs. Wright, had heard Miss Sauer’s scream. She ran out of the house and toward the track. The engineer had seen the little fornt on the rail and had reversed the en- gine, but it was plain it would not stop until it had ground out the life of the boy. As the engine bore down upon the place where the little boy was lying outstretch- ed, too frightened to move, the fireman was clambering out on the cowcatcher to make a desperate effort to seize the baby's clothes and lift him to safety, but the chance of him succeeding was one in a re] d. thousand. mer had no thought of de- pending upon him.

The funeral of the late Gen John W. Turner, Monday afternoon, was attended by Hundreds of prominent citizens, who at- tested thelr sorrow over ‘the death of an old friend and comrade. The house, 717 N. Garrison avenue, was pac ked with people, as were the yards and adjacent streets. Floral offerings almost buried the casket from sight. At the head and side were three large pieces, a broken column being a prominent design. Around the catafaique loose bunches of roses and lilies were ar- completely hiding the lower part of the casket. On top of the casket Was 4 ‘liow surrounded with flowers, which left only the open wee without a covering. Rev. Mr. Tuckerman read the Episcopal ritual. The singing was not the least touching part of the eervice. The first selection, given after the prefatory reading, was the chant. “Lord, Let Me Know Mine End.” Just after the Lord's Prayer ‘‘Near- er, My God, to Thee’ was sung. The cios- ing hymn was “Peace, Perfect Peace."" No remarks were made by the minister, and the simplicity of the service was rendered the more impressive. The .burial took place in Calvary Ceme- ry, wnder the auspices of the Legion onor. symbolized ranged, JEHU BAKERSWILL SEE AGAIN Blind Illinois a Successful Neédle Operation Yor: Cataract in Washington. There is now the best reason for believ- ing that Hon. Jehu Baker’s eyesight will be completely restored. For a.year, owing to the grawth-of cat- aracts over both of his eyes, Mr.. Baker has been almost totally bereft of sight. Ruring the session of Congress next pre- ceding the last am operation was performed on the left eye by Dr. Wilmer, a noted Washington specialist. It was successful to the extent of letting the rays of light into the eye, but as is frequently the case, a second operation was found necessary. At the close of the last session of Con- gress and of Mr. Baker’s term as Con- gressman, he and Mrs. Baker stayed in Washington for the purpose of having the second operation performed. This is called the needle operation. effect of it, if successful, is to concentrate the rays and completely restore the sight. Miss E. R. West, sister of Mrs. Baker. who returned from Washington at the close of the session. received a letter Mon- day from Mrs Baker, which stated that the needle operation had been performed and there was every indication that it had been entirely successful. Mr. and Mrs. Baker will return to Belle- ville as soon as Mr. Baker has the per- mission of the specialist to travel. The other eye will not be operated on until the full effect of the recent operations is manifest. With his sight even partially restored, Jehu Baker is expected by adherents and opponents alike to continue to be a factor in the peclitics of the Forty-ninth Con- gressional District of Lllinois. The old philosopher has lost none of his mental vigor and is physically as “‘fit’’ as he ever was in his life and his hold on the people of the district, it is maintained, was never stronger. For the present Mr. Baker expects to ap- ya himselt to Aiterary work. INVESTIGATE FOR YOURSELF.

One Horse Rescued, but the Other and the Vehicle Were Twelve Hours Mud-Bound. A carriage and one horse .belonging to the Mound City Cab Company passed Mon- day night fast In the mud at Clara and Bartmer avenues, At 9 o’clock Tuesday morning, it was stated that one horse had been rescued shortly after midnight, but the other and the vehicle remained imprisoned in thé ruts. The carriage had sunk to its bed. When the team stalled, at 11 o’clock Monday night, the vehicle had one occu- pant, a gentleman in evening dress. The cabby lashed his horses, but tug and plunge as they would the wheels could not be turned. An effort was made to go back and this maneuver nearly upset the car- riage. The driver cursed, and his fare cursed more. The latter, the cabby says, was a Stranger and he cursed the town, the streets, and the cab driver with a gusto that convinced the Jehu he was from Chi- a in their plunges the horses struck an extra deep rut. One sank below his knees and was there at 9 a. m. Tuesday. The other did not go quite so deep and Was rescued, When this new calamity was told the Stranger he gave up fuming and swearing and acted. Throwing open the door he jumped into two feet of the sticky. slimy mud that only Cabanne knows. Through this he waded to the sidewalk, tossed the cabby his fare and made for a street car. Rescuing parties went out from the Mound City Cab-Company’s stables Tues- day morning to bring in the stuck. horse and cab. GILLIAM WANTS HIS FEES. But Grace ‘Church Wants First to Know the Decision.

MOCK TRIAL IN CHURCH. Pretty Young Woman Charged With » . Umudue Piano Playing.”’ The lecture room of Union M. BE. Church was temporarily converted into a court room Monday night for the entertainment of the congregation. A mock trial was held, the case being a ludicrously arrayed parady on a famous affair in Judge Pea- body’s court, in which a young lady was arrested for disturbing the peace of a neighbor by playing a plano. The parties to the suit were two popular members of the congregation, A. R. Black and Miss Alice Kinkle, the former being the complainant and the latter the de- fendant. A score of witnesses gave humor- ous testimony that pleased the audience immensely. George F. Beck acted as judge, George Henby as clerk and Henry Baker, .sheriff. E. M. Grossman was at- torney for the prosecution and Jared W. Young appeared for the defense. The plaintiff won his suit, the jury as- sessing a fine of $200 against the defendant, whose mother the plaintiff was ordered to marry. The jurors were Misses Belle Over- ton, Margaret James, Marie Lovell, Anna Hedges, Grace Bryan and Messrs. Frank Meyers, Harry James, E. Roblee, Frank Jamison, J. H. Sawyer, W. P.
