ZINC ORE FIELDS. Important Discovery Made in the Country Near Chillicothe. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHILLICOTHE, Mo., May 23.—Zine ore has been discovered in the country four to six miles north of Chillicothe, in what is thought to be paying quantities. The area covered by the find acres, which has already been bought up by local capitalists, a mining expert Fros Jop- lin is cn the ground with machinery and it is given out-that the ore so far taken out yie 82 per cent.

Her large and piercing black eyes scrutinized each juror closely, and when her attorneys went into an ante-room to prepare their challenges she accompanied them. They were care- ful in making their elections, and when Attorney C. Orrick Bishop, special counsel for the State, began the reading of the in- dictment, this strange woman leaned back in her chair and looked, triumphantly, it seemed, over the almost deserted court- room. At first her mouth was drawn as though in a Smile, though the lips were never once parted. As the attorney finished the reading of the indictment and began his opening argument, and told what he ex- pected to prove, the woman leaned for- ward in her chair. Her gloved hands caught the chair arms tightly. The semi-smile disappeared, and a hard, defiant look suc- ceeded it. This expression was exchanged soon for an unmistakable smile that dis- mechanical engineer.”’ been mixed up in only in 1898. Quigley acknowledged that he was a pro- moter and a franchise getter and a finan- cier. He did not.eclaim he was an engineer. The fact is, as testified by those who know, that he is not a hydraulic and prac- tical.engineer. It 1s declared to be doubt- ful whether he could even pass one of Boi- ler Inspector Price’s famous examinations. With a view evidently to making applica- t'on for the Water Commissionership, Quig- ley had himself put down in black type in the 1889 directory as a “civil, hydraulic and The City Directory ise the only authority for his qualifications as an engineer. Quigley also acknowledged that he had filter scheme, which it was charged at th® time was a’scheme to get possession of the Waterworks.

Mr. Bishop, in his openin cumon. made a strong presentation o acts he said he expected to prove. Though the defendant has been in the ublic eye more or less since the time of Mer arrest, a year ago, but little is posi- tively known of her. A few years ago she appeared in St. Louis and bought a pretty home in the West End. She furnished it comfortably. She made few acquaintances and fewer friends. She appeared possessed of liberal means and bestowed charity un- ostentatiously. Her grocery bills were al- ways promptly paid and though her neigh- bors coneidered her more or less of a mye. tery they felt that she had a right to live as she choés and to select her own friende. There were visitors to her house frequently, but the neighbors did not know who these visitore were. In the fall of 1897 Thomas Hopewell and his aged wife were given a home by Mrs. Pit They we@e needy and when Mrs. Pitkin went South the couple were left in charge of the house. The following April the house burned early one morning. The occupants barely escaped with their lives. Suspicion was directed to the occupants, and Hopewell and Mre. Pitkin were arrested. The man was releascd, but the woman was indicted. Frank: Howard of Thirty’s Engine House, at the Arcade, in Gabanne, was the first witness. He attended the fire. The alarm was sounded at 3:47 a. m. The fire appeared to be on the lower floor at first. Witness found the are was aiso located in the upper story. wo or three days later witness went to examine the property. He found that in a closet on the first floor the fire had ‘burned through the floor. linder the stairway another place was found where the fire burned downward very rapidly. On the second floor he found a piece of carpet that was partly charred and that hed en saturated with kero- sene. There was no particular evidence of fire around the heating stove. The fire burned straight up from the two points mentioned through to the roof. Judge Harvey cross-examined the witness, but no material point was altered or gained, LOVE’S MESSAGE WAS TOO LATE.

Judges Bland and Bond of the St. Louis Court of Appeals have fallen out with their associate, Judge Biggs, over a cow case. They claim that he did not exercise the proper courtesy toward them in filing his dissenting opinion in the case of Henry Wasson against John J. McCook, receiver of the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad. They filed a supplemental opinion Tues- day, declaring that Judge Biggs had not acted in a becoming Manner ae a Judge of the Cgurt of ot ae and arrainging him for what they claimed was his lack of con- sideration, The disputed case was decided last week, Judges Bond and Bland concurring in the They declared that the plaintiff ecause there had been no negligence on the part of the railway company. Judge Biggs filed a dissenting opinion, holding that the plain- tiff ought to have damages, as the facts made a strong showing in his favor. He claimed that the majority of the Court had not found the facts properly and add- ed that while Judges frequently differ on the law and its application, they should never differ on the facts. Judges Bond and Bland charge that Judge Biggs never informed them that he intend- ed to write such an opinion, and that the first intimation they had of his position was from the opinion itself after it had heen filed and given to the pubile.

In his meandering in the shades and shadows of the record, got sight of the substances and tacitly admits that the cow did not get on the track at the crossing.” Neither of the judges was in a mood to be interrogated about the opinion shortly after it wae handed down. St. Louis lawyers say such another con- troversy never arose between members of @ court of appeals WER. M’GARY HAD MET WITH A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. The Woman Feared He Would Not Re- cover and It Is Presumed Her Mind Was Temporarily Deranged. Mrs. Maria McGary, aged 32 years, took paris green with suicidal intent early Tuesday morning at the home of her brother-in-law, John Lunceford, 309 South Second street. For weeks she had grieved over a dis- tressing accident that had befallen her hus- band, and the constant worry is believed to have caused a temporary derangement of the mind. McGary was employed at a steel works in Joliet, Ill About a month ago while at work in the factory a plece of barbed wire became detached from a machine and struck his right eye, totally destroy- ing the sight. He was also pentully in- jured about the face and head. When informed of the mishap Mrs. Mc- Gary fainted, and itt was some time before ehe regained composure. The incident preyed on her continually, and, at the Suggestion of the husband, she was sent to St. Louis. It was believed the change of scene would calm her nerves.

NEW YORK, May 23.—Four-year-old Morr‘'s Braf wae branded with a redhot iron in-a blacksmith shop a week ago. Three men were. implicated: The boy has identified William Masterson, a blacksmith, as the man who handled the branding iron. Masterson has been arrested. There is a raw burn on the boy's. body about five inches long and four inches wide. Above it are five distinct letters, ‘H. I. C. A. G..” clearly formed and nearly half an inch high. The letters are in a reversed position and the brand is evidently designed to stamp the word ‘Chicago.’ When the brand was first discovered by the boy’s mother the letters were flery red. Physicians who have examined the boy say that Ty i be may be necessary. According to Mrs. raf, her son came home at about 4 o’clock on Wednesday af- ternoon. He was crying, but when ques- tioned refused to answer. The mother ex- amined Morris and diecovered his condition. She finally coaxed Morris into a confes- sion. He said that he was playing in front of a blackemith shop in Deiancey street, when a man asked him to come in.. When he entered, Morris said, two men eéeeized bim and held ‘him, while a third heated a piece of fron and branded hic. Masterson denies his guilt. LAST PAPERS WERE READ.

ALI THE ORGANIZATIONS ABOUT THE CAPITAL IN LENE. Dewnpour of Rain at Noon Made the Buriting Hang Linip and Spoiled the City’s Gorgeous. - Decorations. WASHINGTON, May %.—Washington’s peace jubilee was inaugurated at sunr.se to-day by a national salyte of 13 guns from the Dolphin, anchored off the Navy Yard, and by the chime of bells and sound of steam whistles all over the city. The day had been declared a half-holiday in the departments, and the employes of nearly all the bureaus were released at moon, the hour being marked by.a salute of 45 guns. The first day’s festivities are to be marked by a parade comprising all the regular army and naval organ‘zations stationed in and around Washington, together with the District of Columbia Volunteers, the Dela- ware National Guard, the Chinese Naval Reserve of Philadelphia, the Veterans of the Grand Army and the Fourth and Ninth United States Volunteer Regiments (im- munes). The day, which opened bright and prom.sing, became heavily overcast at noon, and the guns had scarcely finished the na- tional salute before there was a down- pour. of rain that plastered the bunting decorations flat against the house fronts and the crowds which had just begun to eather on the streets hurriedly sought shel- er. . SEVEN NEGROES PUT TO DEATH Revenge of Mexican Regulators for en Attempted Assault Upon the Wife of a Planter. DIAZ, Mexico, May 2.—Thera is great ex- cCitement in the town of San Dialo, W miles from here, over the lynching of seven colored laborers on the Mexican Central Rablroad. Jése Santo, a Spanish negro. attempted to assault the wife of Senor Duply, a ranch owner. and, escaping from the plantation, was tracked by bloodhounds, and, in com- ey with nine others, was captured in @ ut on the river bank, opposite Fagle Pass. The regulators did not attempt to prove the guilt of any of the negroes, but hung three of them and shot ‘four more, who were attempting to escape. The officials are swearing in deputies, as race trouble is threatened in the colored quarter. Four of the negroes killed are Americans and have all served sentences in the Texas penitentiary. FATE.OF WINEROOM BILL. It Will Soon Be Decided by the Mis- souri Supreme Court. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., May 23.—The mandamus proceedings brought in division No. 2 of the Suilpreme Court to compel the officers of the Senate and of the House to have the bill prohibiting »wineroomg en- rolled, sig and sent to the Gevernor was argued and submitted to the court this afternoon. ; In the court this Morning Senator Haynes offered for the respondents and filed the re- turn to the alternative writ issued by. Judge Burgess on Saturday last. The return de- nies that the bill was legally passed, be- cause ft was not passed in accordance with the constitution and rules of the Senate and also since the constitution provides that all bills be enrolled and signed during the session of the Legislature, and the fact that the Législatur ad adjourned yester- day, the bill could not be enrolled and signed as required by law. and hence the proceedings here cannot affect the bill. At- torney J. R. Edwards appeared for Davia- son and ftled a denial of the allegations made in the return. Chief Justice Gantt stated that this is of the utmost importance to the State and gy be disposed of as quickly as possi- 9 e.

IT IS BELIEVED THAT SHE WILL BE SAVED. Record of the Steamer as a Liner and Warship and Description of the Dangerous Spot Where She Lies on the Rocks. FALMOUTH, England, most of the passengers of the American liner Paris, which ran on the rocks off Lowlands Point, near Coverack, Cornwall, early on Sunday morning, while on her way to New York from Southampton, left here ou two special trains this morning. Some of them will go on board the North Ger- man Lloyd steamer Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, which is scheduled to touch at Southampton to-day, but the majority of them will take passage on board the Amer- ican line steamer St. Paul, which is to sail for New York from Southampton on Sal- urday next. The travelers were intensely grateful to the Cornish folk for the unstinted hospital- lity of the latter, and as the trains moved out of the station the passengers lustily cheered those who had assembled on he platform to wish them Godspeed. The weather continues favorable to the stranded ship. A lignt wind is blowing and there is no serious amount of wash. Sound- ings which have been taken show the Paris to be resting more favorably, owing to the fact that she has been considerably ligat-* ened. She is not straining at all, and there is a perceptible movement of the ship as the swelis roll beneath her, showing there is a clear passage, free from rocks. Should the steamer show signs of sinking when taken in tow it is proposed to run her ona flat, sandy beach adjoining the place where she stranded. Powerful tugs belonging to the Liverpool Salvage Association are expected to arrive at the scene of the wreck this evening, and the divers belleve the additional pumps will clear the first four holds. The fifth is 80 badly pierced that no amount of pumping will clear it. he remaining six holds are It is expected that the steamer, rfow being evenly balanced, will come off the rocks without sustaining further damage. The officers of the Paris still refuse to furnish any explanation of her getting out of her course. An official of the Board of Trade boarded her for the purpose of ob- taining some information on the subject, but her officers refused to answer any uestiong, on the ground that the British Board of Trade has no jurisdiction in the matter, and that the inquiry into the disaster must take place in the United eaten, as the Paris is under the American ag. AN EVENTFUL HISTORY. The Peris as a Fleet Liner and as a Warship. The steamship Paris, although she has been afloat less than eight years, has had an eventful history. First as the City of Paris it made records for speed in ocean crossing which were sources of pride to fits owners. Then, rechristened as the Paris, {it flew the Stars and Stripes and sailed under American papers. Transferred to the Gov- ernment in time of war, it became a cruiser, known as the Yale, and able to render ths Government the greatest of service as scout and dispatch boat. Finally, almost immediately upon its return into passenger service, after havin& been com- pletely refitted, it fell a victim to what seems to have been the merest accident off the Cornish coast. The Paris was launched in Glasgow, Scot- land, October 23, 1891. J. and G. Thompson were the builders, and the International Navigation Co., the present owners, ordered the construction. he dimensions of the vessel are: Length on the water line, 623 feet; length over all, 560 feet; breadth, 63% feet; moided depth, 42 feet; gross tonnage, 10,800 tons; net tonnage, 6289 tons. Siem--ne- Martin steel was employed in the construc- tion of the outer shell, and the vessel was given a complete double bottom. The Paris carries three masts and is equipped with two screws. The gepeed is 21 knots an hour. -verything possible was done to give the oat the finest of accommodations for the traveling public. The first trip of the steamer was a great success. The record from Queenstown to New York was broken, the new time es- tablished by the Paris being 5 days, 16 hours and 48 minutes. The best single day's run of the Teutonia was beaten by the Paris on this maiden trip, and a better hourly average was made than had ever been made before. In 1888 there was an explosion on the vessel which disabled the machinery and made the anip drift in dangerous fashion for several days. Finally the Paris was sighted and towed into Queenstown with all safe on board. Readers of the Post-Dispatch will re- member that this was the only St. Louis paper.to print the story of this disaster. A EEE May 2.--The The first part of an athelete’s training re- lates to the care of the stomach. The nour- \shing quality of his food is considered. The quantity he eats is carefully weighed 3 and measured. It is curious that this care of the stom- ach is looked upon as an ex- traordinary thing’ only to be practiced in special circum- stances. It should be every one’s care. Life is a Struggie for the prize of success. The man who wins must take care of his stomach. It is not lack of energy or exercise that has caused so many a break-down in the race. It is neglect of the stomach. Incessant dull headache ee by eee gnawing in the stomach, heart , acid eructations, coated tongue, bad taste in the mouth, nervousness, mental depression, sleeplessness; these are only a few of the symptoms of a weak stomach and an enfeebled condition of the digestive and nutritive functions. Not all these symptoms will be experienced at once, but any one of them means danger. “Tt has made a new man of me,” is the constant testimony of those who have used Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. This remarkable remedy has such a perfect control of the stomach, digestive and assiim- ilative organs and blood making glands that it apeedi'y corrects the derangements which weaken them, re-establishes them in healthy work r, so that once more the whole bod lood, brain, nerves and muscles—is nourished, and built up into rugged health. “Golden Medical Discovery’’ contains no alcohol, whisky or other intoxicant. Its protracted use does not create a craving for stimulants. * The dealer's after the dollar and the cus- tomer’s after the cure.

For hundreds of years the south Cornish shore has been noted for its wrecks, and, indeed, 19 former centuries the inhabitants were so used to sea disastera to the passing vessels had lost all feeling of pity and regarded everything cast up on the shore as legitimate prize. In (ue of robbers on the shore there are to be found I'ght- houses and life-saving crews, but al! the contriv- ances of modern ingenuity have not been sufti- that they ; last century all that has been changed, and instead | WHERE THE PARIS STRUCK THE ROCKS. cient to eliminate ship- wrecks. The coast of Cornwall is high and rugged. The granite of the mainland crops out off the shure 'in rocky islands and in the even more serious im- | pediments to navigation, the sunken rocks of which the Manacles are, from the human polnt of view, ithe worst specimens. At the Lizard, a point | projecting south into the sea se 24 miles east ef Land's End, two fine lighthoudes are situated. and they serve as the most prominent points of reckoning to navigators. But all along the shore to tbe northeast toward Falmouth harbor the coast jis very dangerous. The Manacles constat of a eeries of rocks which crep out of the channel, some of them rising sev- | eral feet above the surface. the danger of frequent member of the Post-Dispatch staff was on the Paris at the time. When tugs came out from Queenstown to tow the disabled ship in, the Post-Dispatch representative chartered one of these speedy boats and landing at Queenstown several hours ahead of the arrival of the Paris cabied the full story to his paper. The last regular trip made by the Paris, just prior to the breaking out of the war, was perhaps the most exciting of which her crew can tell. Loaded with a valuable cargo of guns and ammunition, the boat presented a rich prize to the Spaniards, and sO little was known of the weakness of the Spanish fleet that great fear was felt that an effort would be made to capture the Paris on her way over. For that reason Capt. Watkins steered out of his usual course and spent a longer time than usual in the passage. The arrival in New York was the signal for a lively celebration. Then came the transfer of the vessel to the Government and the rechristening with the name Yale. The work of arming and refitting was hurriedly pushed along. Twenty-four guns were put in position, among them being the two given by friends of Yale University and christened Hand- some Dan and Old Eli. A fine set of colors also came from Yale alumn}, and a number of Yale men enlisted and were assigned to the newly converted cruiser. Yandell Henderson of Yale was appointed an ensign and assigned to the cruiser. The officers and crew of the boat all took ser- vice, not as formally enlisted men, but as if signed with the transatlantic line for the usual crulse. There was too little time for a formal enlistment. Capt. W. C. Wise, U.. 8. N., was put in command, and Lieut. Keys was his executive officer, but these were the only officers from the regular navy. [t was the second day of May last year when the Yale sailed out of New York har- bor on her hunt for the Spanish. Then be- gan some fine days of excitement in service as scout, transport and dispatch boat. The watch for the elusive Spanish fleet was nevef for a minute relaxed. For a week or more the Yale hung around the coast of Porto Rico, making complete circults of the island, and once or twice going to St. Thomas for communication with Washing- ton. Sunday, May &8, fiving the British fla and displaying the signals of the City o Rome, the Yale passed so close under the guns of San Juan that a single shot could have sunk her had her identity been known. Hardly out of the harbor of San Juan the Yale took her first prize, the Rita, bound from Liverpool to San Juan, Seized as a blockade runner, the Rita was put in charge of a prize crew and sent to Charles- ton. Two days later another attempt was made to inspect the San Juan fortifica- tions, but this time fire was opened aeee the Yale and a war vessel sent out after her. The Yale sai'ed away, and sailed so fast that the Spaniard was soon lost sight of. After other minor adventures the Yale re- turned to Hampton Roads, where three weeks were apent in refitting, unti] the vessel had been made one of the most formidable commerce destroyers on the seas. With steering gear and engines be- low the water line and with coal capac- ity enough to permit a trip to Europe, three weeks in European waters and a return home without recoaling, and with good batterics, the Yale was in a position to do immense damage to the commerce of a hostile power. Although not armored, the arrangement of the water-tight com- partments was considered so effective that many shots would be needed to disable the boat. While in Government service the Yale brought an income of $2500 a day to her owners. On Aug. 31 she was released by the Government, and the work of re- fitting her for passenger service was quick- ly completed, The past spring the Yale, now with her former name, Paris, was sent back into Cuban waters with a par- ty of excursionists on board, among them being John Sherman. CANNON AS SOUVENIRS. The War Department Has 140 Pieces to Give Away. WASHINGTON, May 23.--The War De- partment is [n possession of about 140 pleces of artillery, captured or surrendered as a result of the war with Spain. Many appli- catins have been received at the depart- ment for the loan or gift of these guns, and a few of them have been granted, The act of Congress under which the distribu- tion is made sanctions such loans or gifts only to G. A. R. posts, soldiers’ memoria! associations and municipalities The de- partment is not yet settled in the accept- ance of Gen, Otis’ decision that the Span- ish Government is entitled to all of the cannon in the Philippines outside of those brought in by the American Army. The paragraph in the peace treaty reiating to the ownership of this artillery admits of a double construction, but the welght of opinion in the department is that the United States is at least entitled to the pos- session of the guns captured and surren- = before the signing of the peace pro- tocol. This would include the batteries at Ca- vite, Corregidor Island, at the mouth of Manila Bay, and probably those in the for- tifications of Manila itself. HEALING STATUE ROBBED.

THE DENIAL OF INSOLVENCY. Supreme Court Rules It Is Not War- ranted as a fense to a Petition. ‘WASHINGTON, D. C., May %.—-The United States Supreme Court rendered the first decision given by it bearing upon the present pankruptcy law. The opinion was announced by Justice White in the case of the George West Company vs. Lea Bros., (on certificate from the United States Cir- Court of Appeals for the Fourth Cir- ‘uit. The decision was on a question certified follows: ‘As a deed of general assignment for the ; benefit of creditors is made ‘wy the bank- ‘'ruptcy act alone sufficient to justify an ad- ' judication in voluntary bankruptcy against the debtor making such deed, without ref- erence to his solvency at the time of the filing of the petition. the denial of insol- vency, by way of defence to a petition based upon the making of a deed of general assignment, is not warranted by the bank- ruptcy law.”’ In an opinion handed down by Judge Shiras the court confirmed the opinion of the Circult Court of Appeals for the Second Circult dn the case of K. K. Hayden, re- ceiver of the Capital National Bank of Lin- coln, Neb... versus the Chemical National Bank of New York. The contention of Mr. Hayden was that he had a right to recover on behalf of the Nebraska bank on remittances made to the New York bank which were en route when the Nebraska concern failed. The decision in this court, as in that below, was adverse to this claim. SIX AMERICANS HONORED. Elected Honorary Members of Great Britain’s Royal Institution.

McMillan Is Losing No Sleep and His Friends in Detroit Are Oiling the Machine With the Con- tents of His Ample Barrel. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 23.—Secretary of War Alger gave to the Post-Dispatch to- day the first authorized statement of his position in the Michigan Senatorial fight. Rumors have been circulated by the friends of Senator McMillan for several days to the effect that Secretary Alger would not be a candidate for the Senate from the State of Michigan. The Secretary of War has, however, re- frained from discussing these rumors, ex- cept with a few personal and ~»political friends, To-day the Secretary made the following statement to the Post-Dispatch correspond- ent: “When I entered the race for the Sen- atorship, it was with the intention of re- maining. I will not now withdraw. There has been some talk of a conference between Senator McMillan and myself, and I have no dobt that it will be arranged within a few days I shall remain in the race to the end. I can not see any reason for with- drawing.”’ Secretary Alger intends to force the issue and to make a fight to secure his election by the Leetslature. He is now an avowed candidate who will use all possible efforts to make a successful race. While the Administration has not as yei een drawn directly into the Senatorial fight, it is fully believed that al) its pow- erful influence will be brought to bear. It is understood here that Sécretary Al- ger and Gov. Pingree have formed a com- bination which wil! work harmoniously. Secretary Alger took no part in the elec- tion of Senator Burrows. This was done by Senator McMillan, who controlled the Legislature. 10OVe Pingree has several times been a guest of Secretary Alger in this city, and with the support of the Administration and the Governor, there is little doubt that Sec- retary Alger can be elected. There have been no new developments in the situation, as both sides are apparently waiting. Secretary Alger in discussing his candi- dacy said that he did not care to have a controversy over the matter, but clearly indicated his firm intention of making a fight for the Senatorship. ' Democrats here are speculating on the outcome of the scramble in Michigan, and regard it as a contest in which the “bar’l”’ and embalmed beef will figure prominently, W’MILLAN SLEPS WELL. His Friends Not Alarmed Over Alger’s Candidacy. : DETROIT, Mich., May 23.—United States Senator James McMillan is not only not losing any sleep over the political condi- tions in which he is so prominent a figure, but he declines wholly to deprive himself of the pleasures so numerous about the Grosse Pointe Farms. He passed tne fore- noon at his office in the Union Trust Co. bullding, but the afternoon—well, it is quite well understood thut the Senator ts skillful as well as ardent in his devotion to golf, and that the links out Grosse Pointe way are in excellent condition. During the forenoon the Senator was vis- ited by numerous well-known politicians, among them being State Senators Atwood, Sayre, Jones and Baker, and by Gen. White and Gen, Marsh. Just what was the purpose, variously, of the several visitors, may not be known because the gentlemen themselves Uecline to discuss the matter, vhile Senator McMillan is not voluble in that direction. ‘It is useless to attempt to get details,’ said one of the trusted Heutenants of the McMillan forces, ‘“‘because, really there is nothing to tell that is not thoroughly un- derstood by the public. As every Repub- lican in Michigan now knows, there is or was a danger of serious disruption in the Republican party in the State. The possi- ble factions, represented by what are des- ignated by the names, Pingree, Alger, Pack and McMillan, were threatening Incidents. and the necessity of holding Michigan in line for McKinley stood as a foil to those incidents. We couldn't afford a party fight in Michigan and the Senator's visit to the State has been with that situation in view. Enough has already been accomplished to demonstrate what has all along been claimed, that Senator McMillan is the only man in Michigan that can hold the State to- gether for McKinley.’’ “That's just the point. What has been done?" “Well, now, my dear fellow, I can't tell you exactly. I may gay this, however: Sen- ator McMillan is no novice In political man- agement. The organization of his forces is and has been for a long time, widespread and complete. There has never been a day when this organization was not intact dur- ing the past $3 and there has not been a day, nor will there be, until the Senator ifs re-elected, when it was not active and ef- fective in {ts workings for the entire Re- publican interests of Michigan. The Sen- gtor will return to Washington next Tues- day. No; there was no so-called MeMillan conference held anywhere to-day and none will be held before he goes away. Such a conference {s not necessary. All that now remains to be done is to work out the plan of campaign long ago perfected and already far advanced toward complete solidity and perfect harmony for the Republican parity in Michigan.”’ UNKNOWN SOLDIER KILLED. ee ee Se Fatal Freight Wreck on the Big Four Near Mackinaw.

By its terms the company has five years ‘in which to dispose of its outside holdings, that period being considered by Attorney- General Akin of Illinois, the ‘‘reasonablie time’ provided for in the recent Supreme Court decision. VYhe decree is a lengthy one of 6) typewritten pages. By it the Pull- man Palace Car Co. has five years in which to dispose of the 1200 residences in the model town, the 16 acres of vacant lots in the town, the 3 acres of sireets, alleys and parks, the gas, water and sew-e erage works, the hotel Florence, two churches, the theater, the arcade bullding and the market hall, The company !s given one year in which to cease to exercise all munictpal func- tions, that is, the operating of water, gas, steam end sewerage plants. Within one year also it must dispose of the Pullman Iron and Steel Co. The company will retain its car shops and surrounding 110 acres of ground, office building at Michigan avenue and Adems etreet, % acres of land on the Belt Rail- road and 5 acres of land north of Pullman, held for extension purposes. The company no longer owns the brick yard, the Southern Palace Car Co., the Union Foundry and Wheel Co. and 173 acres of land near Lake Calumet. The brick yard passed out of the hands of the Pullman Co. a year ago.

Senor Mora, the Supreme Court flecal, tn an interview, is quoted as saying he agrees that Senor Lanuza, head of the Department of Justice and Public Instruction. was wrong to abolish the incommunicado sys- tem before reforming the entice proced- ure. According to the present method, It i$ pointed out, a prisoner cannot arrange to have his friends testify favorably or subsidize a lawyer. The Spanish code pun- ishes perjury severely, but the people here have not the respect for an oath which people have in the United States, This is owing to the corruption of the Spanish officials who had the idea of profiting from everything done. Therefore, Senor Mora added, the matter “requires careful «tudy, and in the meanwhile I will allow of no change until prepared to complete the re- form process.” The Collector of Customa. Bliss, explained at a meeting of Spaniah merchants to-day the advantages of the bonded warehouse and dock plan that he had originated. It appears that $2,000,000 are now spent on the antiquated lighter #yetem, and ft is the Collector's design to build two docks, slightly longer than the New York piers, used by the Transat- lantic steamship companies, with double stories, electric cranes and electric ra‘l- roads.

Stephena sent to the Senate a strong,measure in favor of franchise taxation. Thé message was late. It reached the Senate after the defeat of franchise taxation, but it serves as a condemnation of the tools of the lobby in the Legislature and particulariy in the Senate, who defeated franchise tax measures. In his arguments in favor of franchise taxation the Governor wrote a scorching denunciation of the Democratic Legislature. The condemnation ef the Legislature will standin the minds of the people. The miserable juggling by which the lobby's tools attempted to confuse the public mind and dodge re- sponsibility for ihe protection of privileged wealth from taxa- tion merely increases the public condemnation of the work and renders the legislative rascals who did the work con- temptible. The record of the Legislature is clearly written in two cor- rupt acts in faver of plutocracy and monopoly—the legaliza- tion cf street railway monopoly and the protection of franchise monopoly from taxation. : The lobby has won the first skirmish by foul tactics, but the campaign has just opened. The people realize now what franchise values are. They know that they arise from monop- Oly privileges granted to corporations by the State or munici- palities. They know that the people themselves create the franchise values, and they realize that these rich free grants, worth millions in the market, go free of taxation, while un- privileged citizens bear all the burdens of government. Franchises will be taxed in Missouri and taxed as they ought to be taxed. The work of the corrupt Legislature must and will be undone. The men who are responsible for its be- trayal of the people must and will be repudiated. a 2 Plymouth Church’s new pastor, Dr. Hillis, the West by that: wealthy congregation, “Only those who have traveled a day and a night in the great South and West, who have met the multitudes as- sembicd in groves, upon public squares, or in vast halls, can have a conception of the flerceness of the class hatred now sweeping over the land with the force and fury of a conflagration.” If there is class hatred in the ‘South and West or in-anv other part of the United States, it has been brought about by. the insatiate. greed which is now filling the country with trusts. imported from said last Sunday: As Alger and McMillan have each a bar’'l, the fight for the Michigan Senatorship may afford another illustration of the corruption so common in legislative elections of Senators, and an additional reason why the Constitution should be so amended as to provide for Senatorial elections by ‘the people. Episcopal clergymen preached in the open air in New York's streets Sunday, in their sacerdotal robes, and it is claimed that this is the first event of the kind. But, as usual, St: Louis has a prior claim to the innovation.

In your issue of to-day, you express the fear that possibly the balance of trade may show against us thie fall unless the farmer should ¢xport enough grain to save us from that calamity. Thie fear, I venture to say, &# entirely groundless in this era of prosperity for the trusta. About one-third of our farm mortgages are now held in Purope. The interest on these must be paid, if not in grain, then in gokl, or in some other co y. But whatever it ts paid in it will go a great way toward making the balance of trade in our favor. Then Andrew Carnegie with his income of $20,000 a day will spend the greeter ers of his time on his estate in Scotland. at will necessitate the sending of $230,000 a day in some form of labor product to Burope. This will help some in preserving our bal- ance of trade. Indeed, when you consider the rapidiy increasing number of rich Americans who live in Europe and draw their sustenance from American labor, when you consider that American securities of all sorts are largely held in Burope and almost never do you find Buropean securities held in America, it seems impossible that the bal- ance of trade could ever turn against us.

It is a fact that Pius Vil. was (entirely outside the whole question of the ' marriage after the divorcee from Josephine. ‘Napoleon never attempted to make_ the | smallest pretense of consulting the Pope | on the subject; for did he, it ia fair to sup- | pose that the Pope who had go nobly de- fended the rights of Miss atterson, a non-Catholic, would have equally main- tained the sacred character of a valid mar- riage authorized by his express command in the case of Josephine. 2 You must know that such cases as Na- poleon’s have always been referred to the Pope, who alone can decide matrimonial questions between crowned heads. No other uuthority would be otherwise than uncer- tain on the subject. ut a mora] impos- sibility was an unknown region to Napo- leon.

A DEFENSE OF CATHOLIC DOCTRINE, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Your Saturday issue contains a letter from T. Griswold Comstock anent the paper on “Divorce,’’ by Cardinal Gibbons, which recently appeared tn your colutnns. In this letter it ts asserted that the Cardinal is silent on the case of Napoleon, who was I, . Holy Angeis' married to Josephine, divorced her, and then married Maria Loulsa, Archduchess of Austria, which divorce and marriage were recognized by the church and received the sanction of the Pope, The excellent article by Cardinal G!bbons needs no defense. It is so Sompiete and t ,_ tempt to defend it. 'eorttic of subjects which covers the ground so wWell in its state- ment of Catholic doctrine, that 'twould he folly and inrpertinence on my part to at- Cardinal Gibbons needs no defense, but T. Griswoki Comstock needs to be taught some logic, history and Catho- lic doctrine, before he can qualify as a demand a knowl- edge of these three things. In the first place, T. Griswold Comstock is illogical. He iavs down his proposition at the head of his letter—“attention called to the papal sanction of Napoleon's divorce.” He is therefore committed to prove that Napoleon's divorce was sanctioned by the Pope. Dies he prove it? t us gee. He states that Napoleon divorced himself from Josephine by a An ing decree, and after- wards married Maria Loulsa, Archduchess of Austria; that the divorce was recognized by the Catholic Church, and that the subse- quent marriage ceremony was performed by the Archbishop of Vienna “in the Church of the Augustines, with great pomp, etc.”’ If for the time being I grant him what he says, how does he arrive at the conclu- sion that Napoleon’s divorce from Joseph- ine and his marriege to Maria Louisa re- ceived Papal sanction and was recognized by the Catholic Church, because the Arch- bishop of Vienna performed the ceremony, and some dignitaries were present? I am sure T. Griswold Comstock knows what papel sanction means. If he does, by what aw of logic does he conclude that the marriage of Napoleon to Maria Lou‘sa re- ceived papal sanction because it received the sanction of the Archbishop of Vienna and a few dignitaries. This is pretty ‘fierce’ logic. He also asserts that the Catholic Church recognized the divorce of Napoleon from Josephine, because the dlocesan tribunal of Paris recognized it. Another piece of “flerce” logic. According to this method of reasoning here are a few legitimate con- clusions: ‘ I, Recently a negro was burned at the stake by an enraged mob in Georgia; therefore, the United States recognises and encourages the burning of negroes. Il. Recently a naval officer ridiculed the Kaiser of Germany; therefore, President McKinley ridiculed the Kaiser. Ill. If my memory serves me right, T. Griswold Comstock is a physician. Dr. Comstock injures a patient; therefore, the Medical Society of which he is a member ingjured the patient. Overybody cah see the false conclusions deduced, but they are legitimate cunclu- sions If we use the loose method of reason- ing penpeapes by Dr. Comstock, who seems to think that the action of one or a few members of a corporaté body is the action of that body itself. So granting all Dr. Cotmetock says he still falls to prove his proposition, that the divorce of Napoleon from Josepline was sanctioned by the Pope or recognized by the Catholic Church. In the second place, Dr. Comstock ts not pietersonty well informed. I deny most emphatically that either the Pope or the Catholic Chureh ever aNowed, recognized or sanctioned the divorce of Napoleon. Na- poleon did receive a decree of divorce giv- en by the dloceran tribunal of Paria, which haq@ no fur tion in the matter, on the th an invelidating circumstance that existed. Cambaceres, the Arch- chancellor of the Empire, presented him- self before this tribunal and informed its members that the Emperor wished an an- egg + of his marriage with Josephine. ey told him they could not grant his request because they had no juried.ction in the matter, the udge in matrimonial caures of aavorene) being the Pope.

These seven pr lates déclared that the tribunal of Paris had urisdiction and the tribunal granted the divorce. It might be well to say right here that these seven, pre- lates were the ones who afterward declared null and vold. the excommunication launched against Napoleon by Plus VII. This tribunal was net the Pope nor was it the Catholic Church, and they coyld give decrees without end, but they sould never disselye a Christian marriage. Napoleon never asked the Pope to eganction hs di- vorece. He asked for the same thing for his brother Jerome, and Pius VII. showed him what étuff Popes are made of when it ecmes to “putting asunder what God has joined together.” I defy Dr, Comstock to show one instance where a Roman Pentiff declared a consummated Christian marraige null and vold. So much for the divorce. I also deny that the Pope or the Catholic Church rati- fied or sanctioned the marriage of Napol- eon with Maria Loulsa, I care not what was the pormp and splendor attendant at this matfriage. I care not how many bells were rung, how many torches were carried. how many cannons were shot off, or how many priests, bishops, prelates or digni- taries were présent, 6 Pius VII. was not there; he did not perform the ceremony and he never ganctioned it. Such pom and celebration do not constitute pap sanction, and the presence of prelates does not constitute recognition by the Catholic Church. Dr. Comstock must do consider- able studying before he will understand the Catholic Church and her constitution; but he knows enough to know that some bishops and dignitar‘es are not the Catho- lic Church, because he knows that a wiid mob in Georgia is not the United States. Pope Pius VII. was not a fool. If Dr. Comstock will read the Pope’s answer to Napoleon when the Empéror sought a di- voree for his brother Jerome, he will see the stand the Pope took. Then does he think the Pope would turn about and grant what he had just refueed In such vigorous language? Napoleon knew the cuaracte ef Pius Vil,, knew he could not get the Pon- tiff to grant his request, and that is just why he had his uncle, Cardinal Fesch and his Archchancellor Combaceres to engineer . aiveres through the diocesan tribunal of aris. Now for a little Catholic doctrine. The Catholic Church teaches, has taught from the beginning and will always teach that what God hag joined tegether no man shall ut asunder. It matters not whether it be apolcon and Josephine or the humblest piebelans that God has joined together, there is no power under heaven can sepa- rate them. is is Cathoile doctrine, and the church ahd successors of St. Peter in the See of Rome have never swerved in teaching it and in seeing {t carried out, Popes have never dissolved Christian mar- rilages because they knew they had no power to do &o. Because some weak-kneed foolish court ecclesiastics, who trembled before the Em- peror, had not the back bone to stand on Catholic doctrine, Dr. Comstock wouid arraign the entire Catholic Church and ac- cuse her of ee JOBBPH H, TETTEMER, 26441 ast Grand avenue. “ORATY FLYER” FOR OKLAHOMA.

Paper to Be Issued Only in Excharge for Gold and So Destroy the Endless Chain. WASHINGTON, May 2%.—Advocates of currency reform are somewhat disappoint- ed with the results of the deliberations of the Republican caucus committee, appoint- ed to formulate a legislative programme. It had been hoped that the members of this commission would agree upon a com- prehensive scheme of currency and bank reform that would command the support of the majority in each House of Congress. This committee was, however, confronted by the fact that whatever bill is carried through Congress must be put forward as a Republican party measure, and must have the support of practically the entire Republican membership in the House, where their majority is very small. There were disagreements among the members of the committee themselves, and even those who were prepares to indorse the principle of the Indianapolis plan were unable to get together as to detalils. The very moderate scheme agreed upon by the committeemen represents not only their judgment as to what they will be able to get through the House, but what they were able to ee upon themsejives. The pro- sramnme. however, is generally looked upon as a step in the right direction. It proposes to adopt definitely the gold standard by enacting into positive law what is now largely a matter of construction and precedent, and making all the obliga- tions of the country payable in gold on demand. The proposition to reissue green- backs only in exchange for gold will, If enacted, destroy the “endless chain’ and prevent the game greenbacks being used time after time to withdraw gold from tne Treasury. Only two propositions are made to in- crease the volume of national] bank circula- tion. It Is proposed to permit the banks to issue notes up to the par value of their bonds and io rmit the estabilshment of banks of $25. capital in smal! towns. It is expected Chat the first of these will lead to a considerable increase in national bank circulation, as it will tend to increase tne profits on pote issues. The p ed authorization of banks of small capital in small towns is to meet the cemplaint of communities in the South and West that ey are compelled te do their banking in the large cities, and that the profits on this business are withdrawn from their neighborhoods. There is no possibility of any ideal finan- cial i lation belng enacted by the Fif- ty-sixth Congress, and it is not improbable that even the moderate measure proposed by the caucus committee will fai).

CAMPS, FITZSIMMONS AND JEFFRIES ARE TRAINING FOR THEIR MILL ——— BOTH MEN APPEAR CONFIDENT. @his Early the Cornishman Is a Great Favorite Over the Big Man From California, i > The talk in boxing circles now Is all about the mil] so soon to take place between Iitz- simmons and Jeffries. Very few appear to think that Jeffries has a chance and when the men tneet, the Cornishman will likely be a 1 to 5 shot. -: But even 1 to 5 shots do not always win, as the wise folks learged when Sullivan met Corbett at New Orleans, and when no one would back Corbett, even at those fig- ures. Both men are now hard in training for their mill and each man is maintaining a discreet silence as to his chances. There are no names banJied forth and all preliminaries for the mill are being carried on in a decent and dignified way. A New York writer, taiking about the coming fight and the work at the training camps, says: “Fitz is happy. He goes to his work with @ song, and whistles softly as he puils on gloves to pound that long-suffering bag. Fitzsimmons has ‘wanted to fight in the Bast all his life. That curious idea that everything worth while happens in New York (and it’s pretty near right at that) has got hold of Fitz. “He has been glum and blue ever since the license was refused,and although he has worked it has not been the sort of work he is doing to-day or will do. His whole heart s in it now, and the road slips away under is feet in the morning runs, and the most tedious of his training has grown to be a ure. “Then miles in the morning seems to be only a few blocks, a tedious half hour at dumbbells and wrist machines just vives Fitz a chance to get his thoughts centered on how long his man will be in front of him, the steady 30-minute bombardment of the bag just gets the champ into a fighting mood nowadays, and the football game and the boxing are one long joy. There is not ‘a cloud. The sun shines beautifully, noth- {ng bothers, all is well. Ot, Jeffries the same writer has this to And, down at Asbury, Jeffries seems to have braced up in the work. Although ng penfect work, there has n an air of listless uncertainty about the ‘quarters, and the staff has been drifting along with Jeff in a distrait sort of style, wondering where and when. Now it’s dif- ferent. There is a hustle-bustle, pay-strict- attention-to-Jeff air about the place and “staff that behooves Fitz to be fit. “Jeffries is going into the ring keyed up He will do his best, and every last man about him will work to that end. It is only three weeks away. It is the battle of Jeff’s life. After it he is either the champion or--well, just a heavy weight. “Still, no one is worried. In fact, every- body sits out after supper and just smiles and looks wise. very one is giad it is settied, certain there is little to it now, and wondering if he will get 3 to 1 for the money he ig saving to bet on the big fellow. “Both men are working like beavers, with their hearts in the work. ‘That «means condition. And with two men in condi- tion, there is gotng to be a fight such as Coney Island never saw ‘before. It will be the heavy weight fight of history.” Besides bulletining the baseball games at his theater, Manager Garen is going to give St. Louisans a view of the Fitzsimmons- Jeffries fight. On June 9, the date of that mill, he will have special wires from the Coney Island ct. .710 Cincinnati Boston eec Philadelpbia ..... Baltimore ..

Capt. Ewing eays that several League Clubs are figuring hard to secure McFar- land from the Cincinnati Club, but that the quest {s fruitless. “McFarland fs the acknowledged star outfielder of the West- ern League,” said Ewing, “and we can- not tell how soon he may come in handy as a member of the Cincinnati team. We have no idea of selling him,’’ ‘“Tebeau’s idea in sacrificing is, to my mind, hard common s6énse,” g6ays Earl Wagner. “He figures that his team is fast enough to cut off many a hit by their steady flelding; that the opposition cannot secure many tallies because of the speed of Tebeau’s team as fieldere, and that it would not require many runs to win. A few cinch rune, made by the advance- ment on a sacrifice by the Tebeauites, have figured as timely tallies for Patruccio’s band this season.”’ Clark Griffith and Bill Everitt of the Chi- cagos had an impromptu wrestling matéh on the train coming home from Pittsburg, and Wild Bill’s head went through one of the car windows. Dr. Everett, the club’s physician, took a couple of stitches in a two-inch gash in his scaip. James J. McGarr of Worcester, Mass., has been given a temporary appointment by Nick Young as umpire in the National League. He will take the place of Um- pire Brennan, who is on the sick list.

They Challenge Yale and Harvard to a Contest at General Ahtletics. LONDON, May 23.—The American line steamer Paris, which sails for New York to-day from Southhampton takes a chal- lenge from Oxford and Cambridge Univer- sities to the Universities of Yale and Har- vard for an atheletic contest to take place on the grounds of the Queen's Club, Lon- don, during the last week in July. The programme consists the following events: One hundred-yard dash. One hundred and twenty-yard hurdle race. Quarter mile run. Half mile run. Three mile run. Hammer- throwing. High nay = Long jump. This is the regular Oxford and Cambridge programme, with a half-mile run subst!- tuted for putting the weight, to the new rules of which event the English university men are not yet accustomed. The chal- lenge rigidly insists that every American opponent must, like themselves, be abso- lutely a student and absolutely an ama- teur athlete. From communications already exchanged detween the representatives of Oxford and Cambridge and parties in America, there fs little doubt that the challenge will be accepted. The meeting will be a great at- traction at the close of the London season, more especially if the presence of the Prince of Wales, United States Ambassa- dor Choate and Lord Roseberry is securcd, as is already stated to be the case. The University men here who have the matter chiefly at heart, including mem- bers of both teams. are anxious for the match. They feel that the proposal sent to the United States is a very sportsman- like offer and they are confident it will be welcome. The Englishmen point out that so far as the Americans are concerned, they know their own strength and the strength of their rivals, as revealed by thé xford and Cambridge sports in March, but -ithat they, the challenger, are ignorant of what their opponents may have succeeded in ac- complishing tn inter-collegiate sports.

Cro- nin of Vailsburg made application this af- ternoon to Vice-Chancellor Emery for an injunction to stop baseball games at Shoot- ing Park, the grounds of the Newark Base- ball Club. Charles B. Bloemeke, owner of the club and manager of the park, wae the defendant. The petitioner, who lives near the grounds, declares that the games are a nuisance, and that ball players jump over his fence for balls batted there and trample on his property: Disorderly and profane crowds, he sayé, gather at the grounds. Bloemeke also sumitted affidavits—one from Recorder Herynger of Vaileburg— which stated that it was a physical impos- sibility for balls to be batted over Cronin’s fence; that his property had not been dis- turbed,- and that an ample force of police kept the baseball crowds orderly. The case will be continued. onenheemere With the Amateurs. A good all-around player would like to sign with some team in the 12-year-old class, the “Little Po- tatoes Hard to Peel’ preferred.

THE GIRL’S BODY TO BE EX- HUMED FOR AUTOPSY. Grave at Richview, Ill, Will Be Opened by St. Louis Author- ities—Her Lover Has Disappeared. Blossom Newcomb, a chit of a girl just turned 17, who came to St. Louis see what city life was like, about a te died May 14, at 2707 Clark avenue, and her remains were interred on the day following at Richview, Ill., the quiet little village which she had left in innocence not long Hhefore. A regular burial permit was issued on the statement of physicians that death resulted from natural causes. Otto Senn, the girl's 19-year-old lover, accompanied the body on thea railway journey and to the grave. He returned to St. Louis and re- sumed his regular vocation. There was no more publicity about the ending of Blos- gom’s life than a death notice in the daily papers. But that has all been changed. A crime Regs pee in the death of Blossom. Bt. uis authorities will depart Tuesday night to exhume the body of Blossom and determine by medical examination whether she died naturally or from maltreatment The young lover, Senn, is absent from his home. Blossom’s sister, Mrs. Della John- son of 2707 Clark avenue, in whose house the girl died, refuses to see reporters or de-. tectives. In the Circuit Attorney’s office the belief is firm that an indictment for manslaughter will result from the investi- gation, which is just begun. Mr. Theodore Eggers, ircuit Attorney, with a physician from the Coroner's office, will go to Richview to make the examina- tion. Mr, Bggers and Coroner Lloyd, when they began the investigation, endeavored to keep the affair from becoming public, fearing the guilty persons—if there be ary such—might evade answering for the crime by leaving the city. Since the fact of the investigation has become known, they are going to push it through to a conclusion at once. The entire affair is an unsavory story, involving illicit love, questionable medical practice and indignation of a respectable community—which last resulted in an anon- ymous letter that exposed the story. A midwife is concerned and two reputable os barter Dr. Otto Sutter, formerly uperintendent of the City Hospital, was oo a at the girl's bedside when she ed. The anonymous letter Coroner Lloyd several official took up the investigation. Accord- ing to Mrs, Sehiaon's statement to Dr. Lloyd her sister, Blossom Newcomb, lived with Otto Senn as his wife for five months at #00 Pugenia street. Otto was a clerk in the grocery atore of J. A. Temme, 2200 Randolph street. His widowed mother lives at 1408 Papin street. Mra. Johnson said Blossom came to live with her at 2707 Clark avenue May 1, and that Senn went home to his mother. There Was no quarrel between the young folks. Senn called on Blossom frequently. Mr. Johnson said Blosson became ill and that ehe (Mrs. Johnson) called in Mrs. Margaret C, Storts, a midwife, who is the mother of the police court lawyers, Jeff and Brock Storts. Mrs, Johnson said Mra. Storts per- formed two operations on the girl that day and remained’in the house two days. 12 she called in Dr. A. O. Young of: Clark avenue. Dr. Young said Tueeday: ‘TIT found a re- quest written oh my office slate to call at 2707 Clark avenue. I went there and was shown the patient. Patient was hysterical. ] inferred from hearsay evidence that an operation had been performed by a mid- wife. The patient was so extremely agi- tated that I found {ft necessary to admin- ister an anesthetic and called in Dr. E. V. Rowe of 233 South Jefferson avenue. Dr. Rowe placed,the patient under the influence of chloroform and T made an examination. I found only slight infiammation. There was nothing to show that an operation had been performed. I could not state posi- tively. However, there was nothing the matter with the girl, except extreme nerv- ousness. I gave her some quinine, I think, and may be a little phenacetine, also. “T returned to the house two days later, on the morning of Sunday, May 14. The patient was doing splendidly. There seemed to be absolutely nothing alling her, al- though, of course, it is possible that a condition existed which I did not discover. Her pulse was normal and her temperature normal. She was in good spirits when I left her. “About 3 o'clock that afternoon, Mrs. Johnson sent an urgent message -to my of- fice for me. T was not in. Another mes- sage was received later. I reached my of- fice about 7 o’clock, accompanied by Dr. Otto Sutter. Fearing the patient had taken a serious turn I asked Dr. Sutter to gee- cure his transfusion apparatus and accom- pany me. This he did. We found the patient in a state of collapse. Her pulse could not be felt. She was uncanscious. Dr. Sutter transfused her—injected a saline solution into the arm. She died shortly after we arrived at the bedside. I attrib- uted death to the inflammation I spoke of. Dr. Sutter coincided with me.” The body was shipped on lowing the death. No report Was made to the Coroner. The body wae pepeeres for burial here. The sister. Mrs. ohnson, and Senn accompanied ‘the coffin to the home of «che sisters at Richview. The old folks were told that Blossom died of a serious atomach ailment. When Coroner Lioyd had progressed to the point of suspicion he asked Circuit eeeteery Eggers to continue the investiga- on. and the exact cause of Blossom New- comb’e death will soon be known.

Four indictments gainst Mickey Reed were quashed Tuesday by Judge Talty on motion of C. Orrick Bishop, coungel for Reed. The indictments against Reed were for crimes committed more than three years ago and were presented and returned be- cause he shot John Lahiv, a tailor, while attempting to rob him less an a week after being reieased from the penitentiary, where he was serving @ term for high- way robbery. The indictments for the old and almost forgotten crimes opened an interesting dis- cussion. The statutes of Missouri state chat all persons guilty of felonies with the ex- ception of such crimes as are punishable by death or life imprisonment must be tried within three years. Those, however, who have so Offended as to render them- selves liablé to legal execution or imprison- ment for Hfe may be tried at any time. The contention of Mr. Eggers was that no maximum sentence having been fixed for the crime of robbery, the defendant might either be hanged or sent to the peniten- tiary for life. Under thie premise, an in- dictment for robbery could be returned at any time. It was the first time such a view of the law had been taken and the result was awaited with much interest by the members of the bar. Mr. Bishop’s motion to quash was based upon the argument that the crimes, having been committed over three years ago, they were outlawed by the statute of limitation, Also, that no good reason was presented for the indictments not having been re- turned within the stated time. ~ Sustaining the motion Judge T&lty said: “These indictments were found after the expiration of three years on the theory that inasmuch as there is no maximum punishment prescribed for the crime of rob- bery in the first degree, the time in which an indictment may be found is not lim- ited. If this were the correct construction of the statutes it would apply even to such inferior offenses as attempted burglary in the second degree, for there is no limit to the punishment a jury may assess for it. “We are clearly of the opinion that the Legislature never intended that a charge of this kind could be kept hanging over the head of a man for an unlimited number of years, until the memory of man fails and the witnesses die or are scattered to the four quarters of the earth. And this ha always been the understanding of and the construction placed upon the statutes by the bench and bar of'this State. The in- dictments not having been found within three years after the alleged commission of the offenses and no reason being given for the delay, the motion to quash will be sustained.’’ The State appealed.

Tho jag was owned and operated by the old pretzel peddiler, who is a familiar figure in the neighborhood. The old man had sold out, acquired the second load on the proceeds of the first and had started to take it and his empty basket home, He sat on the curbstone to wait for a car, toppled over, lay on his back dead to the world, and displayed only one glimmer of reason—he held fast to his transfer ticket. Of course at that hour and place a large crowd gathered in less time that it takes to tell 13 Such a crowd affords an excel- lent study of human nature. At first it was thought the old man was dead orina fit. and much sympathy was expressed, coupled with much unthinking abuse of a System which fails to have an ambulance on the spot the moment a man falls, and jeers at the police system because of the non-arrival of an officer. There were the usual suggestions. “Give him air,”’ shouted one who himself crowded to the front and showed no dis- osition to set the example by moving ack. “Rub his hands,’ said another, but no one rubbed. “Was he run over?’ “is he dead?’ “What's the matter?’ ‘‘Some one call an ambulance.” “Some one call a policeman.” “Send for a doctor.’"’ These were a few of the questions which no one answered or carried out. A liveried coachman drove up and stopped, having a fine view from his lofty Seat. ‘‘I wish I ‘had half his load,’ he sighed regretfully. A policeman came along and confirmed the coachman’s diagnosis. Finding the protnel vendor unable to navigate, the po- iceman went away to telephone for the wagon. Then he came back and answered several hundred questions, sententiously re- peating the formula, “Just a plain drunk.”’ The crowd was still mixed in sentiment. “Is that all?” asked some one and walked away. ‘The heast!’’ said others. ‘Poor fellow,”’ said the sympathetic. A seedy-looking philosopher stood at the corner. A neatly dressed sevére-loking ‘“‘I am holler than thou’’ sort of a man ad- dressed him: “What's the matter?’ ‘The voor devil's drunk,” answered the philosopher. “T have no sympathy with a man in that fix,’ said the moralist. “Then you are on the wrong side of the street,’’ was the enigmatical answer. ‘Wh pe “The Pharisee, you know, passed by on the other side.’’ “A man’s got no business getting down like that,’’ retorted the moral man. ‘No, he ain’t got no Dusiness doing it, but being a poor, weak man, he does it. Men inherit their weaknesses and vices, and powers of resistance. I guess you be- long to the class that inherits only good traits, and have no sympathy with those less fortunate. You look Hke a Sunday- school teacher. You ought to be .a scholar instead and learn something of what your Bible teaches. of pity and mercy, and the sin of judging others.”’ Tha conversation drew part of the crowd from the poor drunk. They applauded the seedy-looking philosopher and the moralist crossed over to the other side. A carriage stopped. A handsome young woman atepped out and insisted on crowd- ing to the front to seé what was the mat- ter. Her escort asked the policeman what was the trouble. On being told he asked authoritatively: “Why ‘the devil don’t you take him away?’ The policeman resented his man- ner and ‘‘came back” at him. causing an- other diversion of interest. Just then the Chestnut street patrol wagon drove up, the pretzel peddler. his ‘‘jag’’ and his basket were loaded tinto it, and the crowd dis- persed. The old man still held on to his transfer ticket. CONFERENCE OF DEMOCRATS Official Call for the Meeting of the Committee in St. Louis, Thurs- day, May 25. The call for a conference of members of the National Democratic Committee at S*. Louis, May 3, has been made public by Committeeman Wall of Wisconsin. Its read- ing seems to disprove Mr. Wall's allega- tions that there is anything mysterious about it. Following is the call: ST. LOUIS, Mo., March 4, 1899.—Hon. FE. C. Wall, member Democratic National Committee. Milwaukee, Wis.: Dear Sir-As you are no doubt aware, Sevator Jones, Chairman of our National Committee, has gone to Europe for the benefit of his health. Mr. Walsh, secretary of the com- mittee, is in Alaska. Senator Jones writes that he will probably be absent for several monthe and as Mr. Walsh bas been in Alaska about a year already, and is now publishing a news- paper there, it 1s uncertain when he will return to lowa. Before sailing for Europe Senator Jones wrote letters to us, in which he asked one of us (Johnson) to act as secretary of the coim- mittee during Mr. Walsh’s absence and asked the other of us (Stone) to act in his stead as chairman of what is known as the Wars and Means Committee, having headquarters at Chi- cago, until his return. On Senator Jones’ sugges- tion we have met here to-day for-a conference. We are of the opinion that the time has come when the work of organization for the campaign of 1900 should be begun in earnest and actively prosecuted. We believe this work should be earried on not in two or three States, but throughout the Union, to the end that we may he prepared to fight the battle next year with well grounded hope of success. We bers of the National Committee should meet at an early day (for conference with a view to reaching some understanding as to future opera- tions. e bave no authority, of course. to assemble the committee in a regular meeting, but we have thought it would he proper and wise to write to members of = or individually informal conference. = eee apeene that the Jefferson Cinb of &t. Louls, reptesenting the Missourt Democracy, will ive a alonar in this city on May 25. to which F500 persons will be invited. Mr, and other leading men of the party will attend this dinner and formal Invitations will be sent to each member of the National Committee. As St. Louls is a central and convenient point, we have eoneluded to write members of the committee and invite them to meet us here on the morning of the 25th inst., at the Planters House, where we can spend the day in discussing party affairs and arrange our future work. There are a number of ssupoetans matters which ought to receive the attention of the committee and we believe great good would result from saiuwh eonf>rence as we propore. We know how dificult it is for gentiemen to leave their homes and busal- ness to ye attention to matters of this pature, but at the same time we feel that the circumstances and conditions surrounding us demand some sa 'ri- fice, and hence it is we urge this suggéstion upon your consideration. It is unfortnnate that Chair- 1 Jones can not be present, but it is proper wy in view of what he has written to ns, that believe the men- ryan t we are entirely satisied that such a conference will receive nis approval. We hope fo meet you at the Planters’ House at 10 o'clock on the 25th. Please advise us by Jetter to Mr. Stone here, or Mr. Johnson at Peabody. Kan... whether we ¢an you. Respectfully, Ww. J. STONE. oe J. G. JOHNSON. CHICAGO DEMOCRATS COMING. | Prominent Politicians on Their Way to the Committee Meeting. CHICAGO. May 23.—National Committee- man Thomas Gahan, Robert E.

M’LURE. a OTHER CASES MAY BE MADE. /Man Who Is Charged With Appropri- ating Money Deposited With the B. P. I. Arrested in Texas. Louis N. Fishback, charged with gtand larceny, appeared before Judge Talty Tues- day morning, and pleading not guilty gave bond in the sum of $800, with Leonard 8. Mathews of 647 Cabanne place as his surety. The indictment was returned by the Feb- ruary grand jury, and charges that Fish- back stole $0 from Dr. James McLure of 4138 Westminster place on Sept. 19, 1897, since which time Fishback had not been in St. Lou's. The $0 was a cash bond put up by Dr. McLure as a guarantee of g00d faith with the Board of Public Improve- ments in some improvements which he nade in his property. This money passed into the hands of Fishback, and he is charged with having kept it. Assistant Circuit Attorney Hodgon stated that several other witnesses were anxious to appear before the grand jury to tes- tify to similar offenses, and, from their statements, ‘he thinks Fishback’s pecula- tions approximate $5000, Albert Gredell of 1213 Bayard avenue and H. A. Thompson of 307 North Grand avenue, were ‘prosecuting witnesses with Dr. MceLuré, Fishback was arrested last Saturday by G. A Beedle, a member of the Missouri House of Representatives, who brought Fishback back from San Antonio, Tex. INCREASE OF STATION PAY Drug Stores Will Receive Greater Com- pensation for Helping to Handle Uncle Sam’s Mail. The Postmaster-General has ordered a substantial increase in salary for the clerks in charge of various St. Louis postal sta- tions. The branches in question are principally connected with drug stores, stamps, postal cards and money orders being ‘handled by them the same as at a regular postoffice station. The increase just authorized is based upon the increase postal receipts at those places. The annual compensation for the Cave station at Jefferson avenue and Olive street is raised from $500 to $600; Chouteau, Fif- teenth and Chouteau avenue, $200 to ; Cote Brillainte, St. Louis and Newstead avenues, $100 to $200; Cupples, Seventh and Spruce streets, $00 to $600; Gravois, Grand avenue and Gravois road, $100 to $200; Mound, Broadway and Chambers $200 to $400; Vandeventer, Manchester Chouteau avenues, $300 to $500; Wabash, La- clede and Vandeventer avenues, to $100; and Water, Twentieth and Grand ave- nue, $200 to $300 Postmaster Baumhoff is highly gratified with the additional remuneration allowed the outside offices. “We ‘have found,” said he, drug store stations relleve the branch offices proper of a great deal of work. Selling stamps takes up considerable of the druggists’ time, and then they set apart @ special room for our carriers to assort the mails for their respective routes in the dis- trict, while on Sunday the letters are de- livered direct from the branch. “The money order business particularly at these stations has inereased materially in the last few months. “Now, if the Washington authorities will give us the extra letter carriers we need we will rest satisfied, at least for the pres- ent.’ MRS. CERESA WAS FINED $600 Permitted to Plead Guilty to Man- slaughter in the Fourth Degree for a Criminal Operation. ‘that the Mrs. Annie Ceresa entered a plea of guilty in Judge Klein's court on the charge of manslaughter in the fourth degree and was fined $500 and costs. Fine and costs amounted to $49.2. The woman paid this in cash and left the courtroom a free woman. Mrs, Ceresa is a midwife and lives on Clark avenue, near Fourteenth street. She was arrested last December on the charge of having performed a criminal operation on Mrs. Mary Gamble. Mrs. Gamble lived in the West End, and was taken to the midwife’s home by ‘ther husband. Death resulted from the operation. Mrs. Ceresa was charged with manslaughter in the first degree, but was permitted to plead guilty to the lesser crime. Wedding Rings—18ct Gold.

The consolidation of the St. Louls Med- fcal College and the Missouri Medical College, under the name of the Medical Department of the Washington University, was effected Monday at a meeting of the eurators of the university in the offices of the Union Trust Co.

The plan to consolidate the two schools has been on foot several months. By the ment of consolidation the new school the bulidings and all the appliances and apparatus of the old school. Both buildings will be used, but the school will he run as one institution. It is expected the new school will open next fall with as many students as the two old schools com- ined had.

JOSEPH H. FOY ON ETHICS Report of the Society of Pedagogy on the Last Year’s Work. ’ Prof. Joseph H. Foy has submitted his re- | port to the St. Louis Society of Pedagogy of the last year’s work in the section de- 'woted to Theoretical and Practical Ethics, ‘and in it he draws some conclusions which how the extent of the progress made dur- ‘ing the year. In his report he says: | **Our audiences increased slowly but steadily dur- Ong the entire season, and at the conclusion of _ courses were reasonably satisfactory in the size, as they had uniformly been in the quality .@f the attendance. On a careful review . Foet-s work in my department I fee] that neither @ nor labor has been fruitlessly expended, Ape. s effort was made by the leader to fe- yieve the severity, and, to some minds, the unat- veness of this branch of philosophy, by de- | eludes on current events having an ethi- g. and by stimulating discussions upon leégnate questions. Much was said, by natural , interjection, in relation to the consti- igution, phenomena and development of human 40 ety. My conclusion, after a somewhat compre- 'Renbive survey of ethical systems, ancient and » ; Modern, that the conception of self is ess-atiall and that moral judgment is only intelli- 1é ib relation to an objective moral order, ap- ' “to teceive the approval of the esction.”’ 2 he. ~ given during the session were upon these topics: hies Defined. “ies of Man's Moral Constitution and the ' Nature of Virtue. ‘y of the Life of Duty tes of Moralists on “2. ; ' and Oriental Ethics. ‘cs. q ; the Elements of S;yreme Rule and End, Uontributions to Ethics. ae nde ot Ethics. + ere a al, Valid, Satisfact Ss | Mihics? ictory System of The Billion Dollar Mark in Life Insur- Sa ance Passed.

DR. LEE INTERVENES ™O PREACHERS APPEAR AT TYLER PLACE M. EB. CHURCH. — | REV. A. E. NELSON’S BENEFIT. Use of the Church for the Entertain- ment Prohibited—Presiding Elder Will Name a New Pastor. The adherents of former Pastor A. E. Nelson in the congregation of Tyler Place Methodist Church will give him a benefit entertainment» Wednesday night, but they will not be permitted to hold forth in the church. Presiding Elder J. W. Lee has informed them ‘that they must go else- where. This order was conveyed to them during the Sunday evening services and Dr. Lee delivered it in person. It caused a scene almost as exciting as the one which fol- lowed Rev. ‘Nelson’s refusal .to ask a re- newal of his license at the District Con- ference at the First Methodist Church Friday. ; The congregation had already been thrown into an expectant mood by the appearance of two ministers in the pulpit. One was Rev.’ William Court, who had been asked by’*Presiding Elder Lee to fill the vacant pulpit. The other was Rev. Dr. Cunningham, a retired minister, who had come on an invitation from Harry Phipps, Rev. ‘Nelson’s stanchest friend. Dr. ‘Lee’s nomination prevailed, after a long argument, and the service proceeded smoothly untfl the head of weekly an- nouncements iwas reached. Then Mr. Phipps arose and announced that a benefit for former Pastor ‘Nelson would be given in the church Wednesday evening. A buzz of excitement. arose from the congregation and Dr. Lee was on his feet instantly. : “That is impossible,” he said. ‘‘Mr, Nel- son is no longer pastor of this church and no entertainment can be held for his benefit in this building. Mr. Phipps’ aen- nouncement is out of order.”’ There was a brief argument between Dr. Lee and some members of the congregation. But he refused to be moved from his posi- tion. He finally agreed, however, that such members as might wish to attend Rev. Nelson’s benefit might assemble at the church and march in a body to any place that might be seleoted for the en- tertainment. A hall has not yet been rented, but one will'be selected by Wednes- day morning. It is said that Dr. Lee has already nomi- nated a pastor to succeed Rev. Nelson and will announce his name as 600n as an acceptance is received. a “KATY FLYER” FOR OKLAHOMA. Leave St. Louis, 8:16 p. m., via M., K. & T. Ry. Arrive So.

Denunpciation of Trusts and the Devel- opment of Co-Operation. The biggest audience that has gathered for weeks filled the rooms of the North Broadway Social Settlement Monday night, in the expectation of hearing Rabbi Leon Harrison discuss the trusts. The Rabbi had, however, been called out of town on urgent business Saturday and great dis- ‘appointment was manifested. Rev. W. W. Jones of Chicago addressed the audience on “‘The Duty of Church and State to Their Subjects.” The audience then engaged in an interesting discussion, at the opening of which the speaker's title was objected to on the ground that there are no “‘subjects’’ in America. Mr. Jones explained that he should have said “‘citi- zens."" The audience seemed to be alive with speakers who desired to hammer the trusts or show how they would affect the future of the country. Opinion was evi- dently all in the direction of public owger- ship as the remedy for trustéoppression. The Chairman. announced that Rabbi Harrison would certainly be present at next Monday’s meeting, and tha+ Mr. N., O. Nelson's address was postponed til] the following Monday. The Bellamy Club of Clifton Heights hela its regular meeting Monday night, which happened to be the first anniversary of the death of Edward Bellamy. A paper was read by Mr. Rallard Dunn. in which he compared the present struggle for subsistence with a co-operative system, where men, instead of spending their ef- forts against each other united and ceo- operated to wrest from nature a living. He said the trusts were but a part of the industrial evolution and must soon be oper. ated by the Government for the public good. Rev. Dr. Warner read a paper on the theories of Henry George and Edward Bel- lamy. The club then voted to have an excur- sion to Mr. N. O. Nelson's village of Le- Claire. 111... June 3. An election of officers | was then held. | antl LOCATED THEIR RELATIVE. Bruno Salvatore Found in the Hospital With a Wounded Arm.
