Brant in St. Louis. His arrest was made by Detectives mer and Grimsley of Cincinnati and Detec- tive Shevlin of St. Louis. Some time ago Hienry Moreys and Ed*Hellman, thieves, were. arrested for robbery, and each was Sent to the penitentiary. Since their arrest they have thrown out dark hints about the Brant murder and Hellman was finally in- duced to talk. He told the the inurder, says that Connors fired the &hot that killed Brant. Hellman also said that Conners was in Cincinnati. Chief Campbell sent Detective Shevlin to work on the and he ran the man down this morning. Conners arrived in Cincinnati a year ago, and been working here ever since. He intimated to Detective Shevlin. 6ays a special dispatch, that he would make a@ciean breast of all before many days, and clear up the mystery. The dispatch also Says that from the mysterious reticence of the officers here and the insinuations of the prisoner, the old theory that Brant was killed by a paid assassin is revived. Charles A. Brant was mysteriously mur- dered on the night of July 1898, at the corner of Twenty-second and Locust streets. It was the culmination of a long series of murders which gave the neighborhood the name of “Death Valley.” Brant’s murder excited more interest than @ny in many years because of his romantic connection with the family of Roger Hard- ing, a former St. Louisan, who was then living at Asbury Park,( N. J. Brant had married Harding's beautiful daughter, Wellle, at the home of her father, 3059 Page avenue, in October, 1896. He had first met her at Redondo Beach, C al., where he was a@ clerk in a hotel. The union was op- posed by her father, hence the wedding at the brother's home. The couple returned to California to live, but a separation, chiefly brought about by her relatives, fol- lowed, and she secured a divorce in April, 1898. Mrs. Brant, or Nellie Harding as ehe was known after the divorce, went to live with her father in the She was delicate in health.

In 1898 the street car lines of St. Louis city were assessed for $7,394.54. The At- torney-General] in 1898 moved to asses them at a Httle less than $20,000,000, but was voted down. To-day Mr. Crow offered a resolu-. tion assessing the street railways of St. Louis at $17,688,809.12, which was adopted by a unanimous vote of the board.

None escapes the Beef Trust's levy, from the patrons of cafés where steaks are 60 cents per bite, to the workman who carries a ‘‘bit of cold meat’’ in his dinner pall. Some trusts can be evaded, but the Beef Trust cannot, for the combination of firms in the trust control not only the dressed beef industry of America, but they contro! virtually the entire meat output—beef, mut- ton, pork and even sausage. Vegetarians only escape pay!Ing tribute. Within six months prices of ‘meats have advanced from 25 to 100 per cent! And this is not all. The dictator of figures is still at work, making the price tags bigger, and from present indications the cost of meat w'l] continue to increase until the compe- tition of quail and frog legs shall induce the Beef Trust to halt a bit. The butcher is in a serious position. He is between two fires. The housewife or the houseman or whoever orders the meat de- clares that the prices are out of reason and beyond reach and cuts the usual order about per cent. About the time the butcher screws up his courage to the kick- ing point and assails the trust's representa- tive with demand to know why beef is more valuable now than it was when he was a boy, the trust man generally says comparisons are odious and adds beef has gone up another quarter of a cent. In fact so great has been the falling off of the trade in parts of towns where wealth does not reside that ‘butchers are going out of the business in numbers that seem in- credible. They simply cannot seil_ their ware. The working classes cannot afford to ay from 12% cents to 15 cents per pound Por round steaks. The very cheapest beef to be had is chuck steaks at from 8 cents to 10 cents, and while a little bit of that brand goes a jong way, it is very unsatisfactory. The natural result is that persons in poor circumstances have been compelled to al- most eliminate meat from their bills of fare and this closes up the butchér shops. The number of butcher shops, where meat alone is sold are small in eed, compared with the number in business before the days of the trust. Except in aristocratic sections enough meat cannot ‘be sold to make a profitable business, The accompany- ing comparative figures show the increase in prices.

The Daisy Mason case is closed so far as the Coroner and police are concerned. The detectives assigned to the have made their report and the Coroner has conducted the inquest. A verdict has been returned that the girl's death was murder, but neither a week’s work by the detectives nor the formal] in- quiry by the Coroner has brought to light a clew as to who performed the operation which caused her death or who was her be- trayer.

Tne inquest was conducted by Coroner Lioyd Tuesday forenoon. It was barren of results except that it established that murder had been dune and this had already been established by the Post-Dispatch. The Coroner’s inquiry was searching enough, but it was patent that two or three of the witnesses were not testifying un- reservedly.

NEW YORK, July 2%.—James H. Eckles, ex-fomptroller of the Currency, says in an interview printed to-day: “I think it more than likely that the Senate Finance Com- mittee will agree on something in the way of monetary legislation, though it will be far from radical. When it comes to a final- ity it may be nothing more than a half- hearted declaration for the maintenance of the two* metals at a parity, the inter- changeability of greenbacks for gold and vice versa, and the enlargement of bank note ciruculation based on bonds. The President thus far has had his party well in hand, and if he takes hold in dead earn- est ought to be able to get something of rea] value on the subject out of Congress. There is, however, dafiger of the feeling prevailing that the money problem hase ali- ready solved itself and nothing further 1s needed. Such a course would be a serious mistake and one the Administration would ultimately suffer from. ‘It is unfortunate for the country that the Democratic party is in such an utterly demoralized condition, This condition has a+ | monetary system. made the Republican leaders indifferent to much public sentiment that would have proved effective in both preventing new and remedying old wrongs, if the opposi- tion had a leadership which commanded public confidence and a following made up less of the elements of discontent. The strength of the Republican party to-day is very largely, if not wholly, in the weak- ness of the Democrats. Such a condition of affairs cannot but be bad for the pubDiic good. It places the voter in the embarrass- ing position of being compelled to take a | choice between a party made up wholly of radicals promising to do only the things which would disturb the country’s prosper- itv and one containing many conservatives, but led wholly by political leaders, who consider the advancement of party the first essential in the discharge of public duty. “The Republican party ought, with the advantage possessed by it, to give the country a thoroughly sound and completed It ought to advance the civil serviee. It ought to make impossible the continuance on the part of the emo- : char- | acterized that party since 189. That there | has been no financial legislation; civil service system has been seriously in- | | jured, and that crats of the leadership which has the opposition still clings to Mr. Bryan, argues that the Republicans have failed of public expectation and fal- | len short in many important particulars.

Evidence of citizenship is neces- sary to establish a clear title to a mining claim and Dolan desired the documents for- warded to him immediately, he having struck a paying claim, The publication of the receipt of the letler attracted the attention of P. Fitzpatrick of 2918 Market street, an uncle of Dolan. Tues- day morning Fitzpatrick went to the Four Courts and inquired of Chief Clerk Edward the address of Dolan, saying that the letter to Mr. Carr was the firet news any relative of Dolan had heard of him in three years. Fitzpatrick had heard indi- rectly that his nephew had been in Daw- son City at the time of the big fire and he presumed that the papers were burned then. Dolan was a resident of St. Louis for several years and made his application for citizenship in 189. He had left Ireland sometime before that to seek his fortune in America. Until his departure from St. Louis three years ago he always kept in touch with his people, but no letters had been received from him since his journey to Alaska. His mother and father have died, leaving him a snug little fortune to inherit, which he must return to Ireland to receive. Now that he has Dolan’s address Mr. Fitzpatrick will communicate with him, and, upon the receipt of an answer, will join him tn the gold field so that Dolan may return to claim his property, leaving A + gia on the ground to protect the claim, OPPOSE THE BANKRUPTCY LAW.

Night, However, Was Marked by Dis- order and Attempt Was Made to Blow Up Another Car. CLEVELAND, O., July 25.—After a night marked by rioting the city this morning again presents a peaceful aspect. On all the various lines of the Big Consolidated System cars were started out on schedule time. Beyond the usual obstructions of stones, bricks and all kinds of rubbish placed on the tracks in the outlying dis- tricts the latter part of the night, was no interruption to traffic during the early hours of the day. Mayor Farley has been notified by Adju- tant-General Axline that trobps to the number of nearly 1000 will arrive in Cleve- land this afternoon to assist the local au- thorities in maintaining order. R'ioting broke out afresh last night and a second attempt to wreck a car was made. A Pearl street car, speeding south near Holmden avenue, carrying, besides the motorman and conductor, a guard, ran into some explosive. The rear platform of the car was torn off and the flooring was wrenched from its fastenings. The crew was not injured. The explosion was the signal for a re- newal of the attack from the housetops and alleys. Troop A, hurrying on horseback to the scene, was bombarded with giant fire- crackers. Several arrestes were made. Pistol shots were heard on all sides; and one man was slightly wounded in| the arm, it is said. Strikers and their friends held a jmass meeting in Newburg, a suburb of Clev@iand, last night, during which the men |were urged to persevere in their fight again Biz Consolidated. | Rev. Horatio Brotherton and Rev. Ajrthur Ludlow, pasters of local churches, Bpoke at the meeting. They protested against the presence of the soldiery and resolutions to that effect were adopted and will be pre- sented to the Mayor. Jacob Newman and Ferdinand Luke, non- and declaring that they had been hired by the Pinkerton National Detective Agency to take the places of strikers, have been ar- rested for exhibiting their weapons in a threatening manner. The carrying of arms by non-union men has given rise to a curious situation at the line which separates Cleveland from South Brooklyn, a small independent municipal- ity On the south side of the river. The street car crews are allowed in the city to array themselves like walking arsenals, but across the border the Mayor of Brook- lyn, assisted by the town marshal and the constabulary, has taken steps which guard that suburb from armed invasion. The offi- cers searched the crews of every car Which came across the bridoge, but found nothing. The men had taken the precaution to leave their revolvers on the Cleveland side. On the return trip they again take possession of their weapons. The resolutions adopted at the Newburg mass-meeting last night protest against the carrying of arms by the street car em- ployes, pointing out that the presence of the military is ample protection to the men. Ralph B. Hawley, the non-union motor- man who shot and killed Henry Cornweit on Pertfy street, yesterday, was arraigned in the police court to-day.on the charge of second degree murder. He will be given a preliminary hearing next Tuesday. | | } | ADJUTANT-GENERAL IN CHARGE. Fourth Regiment of Ohio Goes to Cleveland on Strike Duty.

Further proof that St. Louis is in the power of an anthracite coal trust is found in the statement of a prominent coal dealer of this city, who recently had an expertence with a representative of the syndicate, which showed him how absolutely-it is in control of the situation. “This man came to me to take my order for coal;’’ said the coal dealer. - “‘He named his price. I told him we couldn’t pay any such price and do Dusiness. He said that was the price and 1 could pay it or let it alone just as I chose. “I told him we wouldn’t séll his coal, bu would push Arkansas coal and coke. told me to go ahead. “If you don’t sell our coal,’ he said, ‘we won't mine it and it won't Cost us“ any- thing to let it stay in the ground.* We don’t eare what you do.’ ”’ Continuing, this gentleman said: “The hard coal syndicate is headed by J. Pierpont Morgan. It ig controlled by the men who control the Pennsylvania; the Reading, the Delaware & Lackawanna and Other roads tapping the coal district. The output of the Pennsylvania mines is about ‘50 cents sy of digestion. | : 46,000,000 tons, The syndicate controls over 40,000,000 tons of this.

They can, if the raise the price 75 cents a ton and clear a It is just as easy to raise it 50 cents, because they are masters of the situation. Of course, beyond a cer- tain point this avarice becomes dangerous to their own interests. It won’t do to 1 ong the people too much.” his, and many other dealers, while they will not make contracts with all customers, have made a faw, by which they argue to protect consumers against an increase of more than 50 cents per ton. This is the best they can do. Under such an agreement the consumer who gets hard coal at $6.75 a ton 1s sure the price will never go above $7.3, although his dealer may lose money at the iatter price.

This Is the Outcome of the Trouble in South Africa Over the Status of the Uitlanders, or For- eign Residents. LONDON, July %.—Reports regarding the resignation of President Paul Krueger of the South African Republic are conflicting, but according to the best information he retually resigned oftice conditionally. The Volksraad, wi ile maintaining its oppo- sition to President Kruger on the dynamite concessions, has given its assurance that it still has the utmost confidence in Presi- dent Kruger and it is believed that he has withdrawn bis resignation. As to the difference of opinion on the question of the dynamite concession, Gen. P. J. Joubert, Vice-President of the Repub- lic, and the majority of the VolkKsraad fa- vor cancellation of the monopoly, while President Kruge- supports it. The mi- nority of the Volksraad desires to buy out the compaliy. CAPE TOWN, July 25.—Advices have been eceived here confirming the report that dent Krucer of the South African Re- public has resigned. The present trouble between England and the Transvaal Republic grows out of the action of the latter in granting a monopoly of the dynamite trade to a company. Dyna- mite is used in mining and the prices charged are said to be exorbitant. The foreign residents, known at Uitlanders, and who are chiefly Englishmen, protested to the British Government, which notified President Kruger that he must not oppress foreign residents in the Republic. President Kruger and the Boers generally fesent interference in their affairs on the — of Geat Britain. The relations of the Wo countries are supposed to be based up- on the provisions of the treaty of 1884. nder the terms of this treaty the suzer- ainty of Great Britain in the Transvaal was considerably restricted, and instead of a dent at Pretoria the British Government was to be represented by a diplomatic agent. The teaty of peace signed in 1881, between Great Britain and the Transvaal, following the war, caused by the annexa- tion of the latter ‘by the former, provided that self-government should be _ restored to the Transvaal! so far as internal affairs were concerned, the control and manage- ment of external affairs being reserved to Great Britain as suzerain. This treaty also provided for the appointment of a British resident at Pretoria. The British claim to suzerainty over the Svaal is very irritating to the members of the Boer Republic, who lay claim to inde- ects On the other ham it cannot be enieéd that the Uithanders, who constitute the majority of the inhabitants of the svaal and who pay most of the taxes, shovid have better treatment than they receive from the Boer government. The Boers had removed twice to get out- side the range of British infiuence before founding thelr present government, and in 1858 their independence in the Transvaal Was recognized. In 1877, however, this ter- Titory was formally annexed by the British, the time when the imperialists were in of the government.iIn 1880 the Buers rebelled against British authority and de- feated the British army in the battle of ap beeg Hijl. Before another army could sent to crush the Boers Gladstone came into power in England, and he refused to rosecute the war, saying the Boers had n wronged. The treaty of 1881 guaranteed independence in gil matters of local con- but- established gritish suzgerainty. ie was not satisfactory to the Boers, and fn 1884 a new convention was made, in which the power of the South African republic Was restricted by Britain in only one re- spect. It cannot make treaties with native tribes outside the Transvaal! or with foreign governments, the Orange Free State ex- cepted, without the consent of the British Government. Under this convention of 1884 land still claims tritish suzerainty, while the Boer Government matntains that it is independent. In championing the cause of the Uitlanders England probably thougnt sBuccesss would be equivaient to estab,ish- ing the British claim of suzerainty. But the wily Kruger was not to be so eas:ly caught. Alfred Milner. the nis the Boers In conference with’ Sir representative of Chamberlain, President Kruger agreed to grant most of the de. mands of the Uit.anders, but accompany- ing the offer was a stipulation that all aif- ferences between the South African repub- Me and England should be submitted to ar- bitration. However, there can Be no arbi- tration between a suzerain and its de- ndency. To accept this proposition would ® to concede the independence of the Transvaal, the point for which Kruger a@iined.

STRIDE TOWARD PEAC AMBASSADOR WHITE’S VIEW OF THE HAGUE CONFERENCE. ARBITRATION PLAN GOOD. Limitation of Armaments Will Come ater and War’s Scourge Will Cease. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch, Copyright, 1890, by Press Publishing Company. THB HAGUE, July %.—The Post-Dis- patch correspondent is enabled at the close of the Peace Conference to send the fol- lowing message from Ambassador White. the president of the American delegation, to the people of the United States: “I consider that the results of the con- ference are better than many dared to hope for at the beginning. “The arbitration plan is not only good in itself, but it lays the foundation for fur- ther results in the cause of peace, which it will be the duty of future conferences to develop. “I belleve the limitation of armaments will come later, but in the nature of things it is necessary that the principle of arbitra- tion shouid be accepted first. “It marks the first stage of abolition of the scourge of war.’’ CONFERENCE AGREEMENTS. Chief Results of the Convention for General Peace. THE HAGUDB, July @%.—The general act embodying the results of the International Peace Conference, after enumerating the names and qualifications of all the dele- gates, says: ‘‘In a series of meetings in which the above delegates participated, inspired throughout by the desire to realize in the highest*® possible measure the generous views of its august initiator, the confer- respective governments the series of con- ventions and declarations appended: “Convention for the pacific settlement of international disputes. “Convention concerning customs of war on land. “Convention for the adoption of laws against the use of asphyxiating or dele- teroius gases from balloon projectiies, and for the prohibition of the use of bul- lets that expand in the human body.” The general act contains five expressions of opinion ag follows: ‘The conference considers that limitations of the military charges, which at present oppress the world, are greatly to be de- sired for the increase of the material and moral welfare of mankind. “The conference expresses the opinion that the question of the rights and duties of neutrals should be inscribed on the pro- gramrg@: of a conference to be held at an early date. “The conference expresses the opinion that questions relative to the type and cali- ber of rifles and naval artillery as examined by it should be the subject of study by the different governments, with a view to ar- rvei at a uniform solution by a future con- ference. ‘The conference expresses the wish that an early convention be called to revise the Geneva Convention. “The conference has resolved that ques- tions relating to the inviolability of private property in war on land and the bombard- ment of towns or villages in naval war be reserved for future conferences.”’ The delegates re-examined the text of the final act in order to decide how reservations are to be made. It was decided that not only the three conventions, but the three declarations, must be separately signed, the formula accompanying which will be de- cided upon to-morrow. The American delegates asked that the word “duty,” in article 2, be fully defined, so that the word may in no case imply any obligation on the part of the United States {o interfere in European affairs, and vice versa. The discussion among the French dele- gates, who framed the articlh and the Americans lasted several hours. Efforts are now being made to find a suitable word to substitute for ‘‘duty’’ which will meet the wishes of the American delegates without weakening the purport of the artcile. It is understoo!l that the United States Will not be bound by the decision of the con- ference to prohibit the use of the dum-dum bullet in warfare. There can be no question of the rieht of ovr delegates to refuse to prohibit the dum-dum bullet; for under the articles convening The Hague conference a nation’s adhesion to the protocols and con- ventions is voluntary. Such of the nations represented at the conference as May agree to this prohibition of the dum-dum bullet will be bound by it, but only as between struggies or wars tn which the two parties are signers of the convention.

Brief History of the Case, Showing How the Dispute Originated and Claims Put Forward. WASHINGTON, July 2. — England, through her representative here, has re- | | Severe Storm Does Damage in the Vi-| sumed negotiations on the Alaskan boundary. Presumably important cables from London have been received at the British Embassy since Sir Charles Tupper and Sir Wilfrid Laurier indulged in their “arbitration or war’ talk at Ottawa on Saturady. There are indications that the Canadian bluster was not at all pleasing to the British Government. Mr. Tower has received instructions to conduct negotia- tions on a new line. Months ago the United States held out the possiPility of a treaty arrangement whereby Canada might be perm.tted to make commercial use of one of the Alas- kan ports of the United States. It was not proposed to cede a foot of ground at tide water or to confer the shadow of a title to the port. fut this Government inquired if a treaty provision which permitted the Lominion a port of free entry and_ exit for goods going to or coming from Cana- territory would be satisfaetory. » Alaska question is simple enough, In the British Government conceded Alaska to Russia, and in 1867 Russia sold Alaska to the United States. No question as to the boundary arose between England and Russia or between the United States and Canada until 1884. Up to that time British maps delimited terrttory according to the present claim of the United States. The disputed territory extends in the form of a pan-handie down the Pacific coast. The Canadians contend that this pan-handle should end at the Behm Canal; the Ameri- the ~ , “ft P %, ¢ ence has draw up for the approval of the ‘cans hold that it runs to the Portiand Canal, Another dispute is as to the width of this pan-handle. The Anglo-Russian treaty pro- vided that the line should follow tne coast mountain range, but if thegange was more than ten marine leagues iniand then the ] should be at the ten-league limit. In order to make a diplomatic case the Cana- dians have raised all the questions that the issue affords. Divested of these the case is simply that, discovering the value of Alaska, Great Britain, at a period when its policy was aggressive, encouraged Canada to make claim to a portion of Alaska held by the United States, Rival Canadian politiclans have made the promise of recovery of this territory a step- ping stone to popular favor, and, as at present, the party which is out of power has always taunted the party in power with ts failure to make its promise good. At the time Great Britain encouraged Canada to make this claim the mother country's feel- ings toward the United States was not am- iable. Now Great Britain is seeking friend- ship and favor at Washington. Thus Can- ada finds its claim on Alaska but feebly supported by Great Britain. That claim fs preposterous at best. Sir Wilfrid Laurter’s declaration of possible means of settlement amounts to a surrender, It is easy for him to bite his thumb at Uncle Sam, because the responsibility for action rests with Great Britain, and he knows that ne‘ther tne mother country nor the United States wants war over the Alaskan boundary question, To Americans there seems to be no merit in Canada’s contention as to where the boundary line,should run. It is put forth with vigor bedhuse the Canadians are very eager to have an outlet to tidewater, from which they are excluded by the boundary line as now recognized. SAVED FROM THE TRAIL. Fifty-seven Unfortunate Men Brought Back to Edmonton. WRANGEL, Alaska, July 25.—The Stick- River steamers Strathcona and Casca have arrived here with 57 survivors of the Edmonton trail to Dawson, These unfor- tunates had been on the trail neariy two cars. Under orders of the Canadian Govern- ment, the Hudson Bay and other trading companies have sent out relfef parties to bring in the several hundred sick and starv- ing still struggling along the Liard and Peily Rivers. During the past winter it Is estimated that 50 died of scurvy and as manv more were drowned. Strong language is used in decrying the misrepresentations of Canadian officers who said the Edmonton trail practicable. Among the returning survivors are: D. L. Shawhorn and J.

The Admiral Is in Good Health and Went to Triescs for the Benefit of the Olympia’s BEBE Crew. | pil fle. | Secretary Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch, Copyright, 1899, by Press Publishing Company. TRIESTE, (Austria. July 2%.—Admiral Dewey received yesterday morning a letter from ‘Mayor Van Wyck extending to him the hospitality of the city of New York; also a letter from Gen. Butterfield asking about the date of his arrival and any de- sire he might express regarding the ar- rangements for his reception, The Admiral replied by mail as follows: Dear Mr. Van Wyck: I have the honor to ac- knowledge the receipt of your letter of June 30, tendering on behalf of the City of New York a publie reception on my arrival, to include the hos- pitalities and courtesies of the city. In accepting the invitation, I desire to express my deep sense of gratitude to the citizens and their represeutatives in so signally honoring us. It is impossible at this time definitely to fix the exact date of the Olympia’s arrival in New York, but I shall endeavor to inform you definite- ly at Gibraltar. I am, sir, truly yours, GEORGE DEWEY. Replying to the letiers and cablegrams of Mr. Butterfield he says: “‘] need not tell you how deeply gratified I am by the great honor paid to me by the -: Annas of New York and their representa- tives. “Any arrangements made by your com- mittee will be entirely agreeable to me.”’ The Admiral continues: ‘““If possible I will arrange to arrive at anchor in the lower bay on Sept. 30.’’ Replying to a question the Admiral.seays further that it is not now proposed to stop at any port from Gibraltar to New York. To iMr. Whittier the Admiral expresses hig pleasure at Whittler’s presence on the committee and adds: “I think the best thing I can do ie to place myself entirely in the hands of the com mittee.”’ In referring to his anchorage in the lower bay on Sept. 30 he says: “This will give the committee an oppor- tunity to inform me of the arrangements decided on. before going to the cityw”’ The Admiral, with whom I have just spent a pleasant hour on board the Olympia, is delighted at the Mayor's letter. He ex- pressed confidence in the excellent taste of the arrangements. It may be taken al- most as a certainty that he will be in the lower bay on the date named. The Admiral said the letters really had lifted a weight off his mind, in that they assured him that the arrangements for the reception, which he literally had feared, would make it easy for him. He will go to Washington from New York at the request of the President and Secre- tary Long. FRBDDDRICK PALMER, DEWEY IN GOOD HEALTH. ee ee OH He Has Not Talked Politics to His Callers. TRIBPSTE, July &%.—A correspondent of the Associated Press visited Admirai Dewey. Admiral Dewey said that although he had received many invitations from Americans sojourning in Carisbad, he had never intended going there. “Look at me,’ said the Admiral. “‘Do JI look like a sick man? Do ! look as it I required Carisbad treatment? I -am quite healthy, and though I will be ® next De- cember, I feel quite young in health and spirits, and from my humor vou will notice that what I tell you is quite correct. I “ame to Trieste solely to recruit the health of my crew, they. having spent 15 months in the tropics without a break. My recep- tion by the Austrian officials was most friendly and accercing to the usual ¢@i- quette. All reports of the Emperor's de- clining me a recermtion are unfounded. “I expect to remain in Trieste about a week longer and shall then proceed, prob- ably, to Naples. Further detsils and plans have not neen decided upon, but the cruiser will remain during the whole of August at Mediterranean ports. The last port touched in Europe will be Gibraltar, where we will only take on coal and stores. We are ex- pected in New Yerk by Octcber 1. “T have accepted invitations by the citi- zens of New York and Washington, and am already in possession of a photograph of the sword of honor voted me by the American Congress.”’ Admiral Dewey aibsolutely refused to talk on political subjects, and when asked what he thought regarding Engiand, replied: "'I have not thought anything yet.’ At the banquet given by Admiral Dewey on Saturday evening on board the flagship Olympia there were 22 covers. Admiral Dewey drank tc the prosperity of his old home aml the hand of his birth, and to the health and prosperity of Minister Harris. fe also expressed his eppreciation of the great measure of hospitality extended to him and his officers and men by the city of Trieste. The company aiterward took coffee on the deok of the flagship, returning on shore at midnight. . THE ADMIRAL’S FUTURE. Probability That He Will Spend His Years in Washington. WASHINGTON, July 25.—There is much gossip in naval circles respecting the duty to which Admiral Dewey will be assigned on hts arrival in this country. Secretary Long positively declares that the post has not yet been selected and will be only when the President has had an opportunity to consult Admiral Dewey and has learned his wishes. There is apparently no doubt, however, that the Admiral will be sta- tioned in Washington at the head of ; strong board, possibly the Board of Inspec- tion and Survey, whose duties will be en- larged so as to take in questions of policy Special * Cloak and Suit 39c buys our 75c RRR Waist.

Cafe for Ladies and Gentlemenrirri'Fi0or BOIES BREAKS SILENCE, HIS VOICE RAISED AGAINST THE PHILIPPINE WAR. IN FAVOR OF BIMETALLISM, Thinks the Money Question the Car. dinal Plank in the Democratic Platform, WATBDRLOO, To., Juliy %.—FPx-Gov. Boies was asked for his opinion regarding the proper man for the Democratic stand- ard-bearer for next year He replied that he did not ‘‘care to express himself on that point at present.” “What, in your opinion, should be the carmlinal plank in the Democratic platform for 1900?" was asked. “The money question will undoubtedly be the main issue in the campaign. To win, the Democrats must come together on some basis on this money question and being united on this and opposing a continuance of the slaughter that is now being oar- ried on in the Philippines, we will cer- tainly carry the Gay. I shudder when my mind turns to those poor Filipinos, whom we went to meet as friends and are now shooting down like dogs. I am confident that the American people will never toler- ate any such outrage and sih disgrace if the matter be fairly put before them. Per- haps the coming Congress will catch the drift of public sentiment and pass such neasures as will grant the Philippine Is- lands independence as goon as a suitable form of government can be arranged. In that event one phase of the coming cam- paign will be materially changed. As it now stands, however, we are going directly opposite to the broad principles upon which cur Government was founded and must be maintained. I carnot see any great ob- stacle in the way of an independent gov- ernment. Again, besides slaying thousands upon thousands of the natives, look at the vast army of our best blcod whioh is deing sacrificed in this un-American warfare. “As to my views on the money question, they are too well known to need restating. My position on this subject: is quite severely criticised, though I have a number of let- ters from preminent men indorsing tha stand I have taken. My claim jis that a gold standard is not Democracy. It never was. It never can be. To insist upon it Is to cut the party and leave the party a corpse. Sixteen to one is mot and never was an essential of Democratic falth. It cannot be made so now, because the Dem- oeratic party will never be united in its favor. Vhat is democracy? Bimetallism By this I mean the equal ard concurrent use of both of the money metals as a basis for our financial structure. Mints are not absolutely necessary for a double standard, Coin is not a favorite medium @s an ex- change. Paper is preferred. This fact fur- nishes a basis upon which an honorable compromise of conflicting opinions .in our party can be harmonized.” FIGHTING WITH YAQUIS. ee ee Twenty of the Indians Killed, but An- other Uprising Feared.

IONDON, July %—A private letter re- ceived here to-day from a war correspond- ent at Manila and cated June 17, says: “There seems to be no end of the war in sight. The censorship is conrstanly becom- ing more troublesome. Gen. Otis recently established a rule that any matter relating to the navy must be taken to the com- mander of the fleet for his epproval and afterwards submitted to the military cen- sor, thus adding to our difficulties. For some reason which the censor would not explain, Gen. Otis refused to allow us to send the death of the Monadnock’s Cap- tain (Nichols) for two days after its oc- currence. The Genera] also refused to let us send news of the Cisappearance of Capt. Rockefeller (Apri) 28) on the ground that it would worry his family; or the killing of Capt, Tilley of the Signals Corps, until the next day.

THE MAYOR GR THE FIVE — Claim Made That a Clique Forced the Administration te Turn Over Valuable Patronage. In entering into negotiations with five members of the “big 17’ House of Delegates conrbine? with a view of heading them off from their obstruction to the passage of the appropriation, the Mayor, so his ene- mies claim, stepped into a neat little trap, from which his friends are now trying to extricate him. Mr. Ziegenhein’s sipporters declare he has not been trapped, but is playing some very fine politics. The fact is that the five—Charles A. Gutke, John K. Murrell and Louis Decker, Republicans, and George F. Robertson and Charles A. Kelly, Lemocrats—weakened in the opposition to the appropriation bill be- cause they feared the effect upon the public of the stoppage of the machinery of the city government, abandoned the attempt to force the administration's consent to the increased police approp:iaiion and laid plang to work a clever game on the Mayor. If the Mayor had been astute, it is the opinion of most of his friends and all of his opponents that he could have forced the House of Delegates to pass the appro- priation bill without making any conces- sions. However, the deal is not yet closed and the Mayor may see his mistake and retreat before it is too late, The cause of the desertion was the fear that when the present funds run out and the public feels the effect of the stoppage of municipal business, the pro- test would be directed against the members of the House. It ts said the police depart- ment officials were made to see that this would be the result, and were induced to release the five from their pledges to stand by the police appropriation. The five imme- diateiy entered into negotiations with the Mayor. The conference was held in the Mayor's private office Monday afternoon. Precau- tions were taken to keep it a secret. They gave the Mayor to understand that they represented the 17 of the opposition, and that their demands were many. They wanted patronage, as many as ten men aplece. This the Mayor readily agreed to. They demanded that John Owen, Chris Schawacker and Norman Florseheim be fired. The Mayor balked on this and it was passsed over to tbe the subject of another conference. Murre!l demanded the discharge of a certain inspector who has been fighting him in this ward. To this the Mayor as- sented. Altogether the five got about what they were pleased to demand. They told the Mayor that nothing for the prosecution in the Vogel unseating case, but held it against him, helleving he had inspired the prosecution. The Mayor denied this, but intimated that the prosecution woukd cease. The meeting broke up without a definite agreement having been reached. The five were jubilant over the success of their bluff. They consider that, considering that they would have to surrender anyhow, they are remarkably fortunate to be able to wrest patronage from the enemy before they capitulate. By the terms of the proposed agreement, of course, the Democratic delegates are to be allowed the same patronage as the Re- publican members. One factor in bringing about the surrender of the opposition to the passage of the appropriation bill is sup- posed to be the protest of the members of the Police Department. who saw a lapse in pay staring them in the face, if the ap- propriation bill was not passed before Aug. |. On the other hand the Mayor's friends say he has not been fooled. They say he knows the opposition is ready to quit as well as they do. “The Mayor may have t these fellows,” said a lieutenant, “but I'll bet he has made no promises. He knows they are whipped and that they are running to cover, and he won’t give them any promises, I know persenaliy that they have sent three emissaries to him proposing if he will call off the Vogel prosecution they will let the appropriation bill go through. He has always sent back word that he has nothing fo do with the Vogel case.”’ When the appropriation bill is passed, the next move of the administration will be to reorganize the House. BUYERS’ RATES IN EFFECT. St. Louis Can Now Be Visited for Lit- tle Money. The semi-annual buyers’ excursion rates are in effect on the St. Louis railroads and the influx of the purchasers has pegun. The rates started Baturday, but the books of the Interstate Merchants’ Association were only opened Monday, at Seventh and Washington avenue, where % registered by night. From the brisk start, it is expected that last spring’s record of more than 600) purchasers will be exceeded. These cheap rates cover all the country contiguous to 8t. Louis and range from one fare plus $2 to cone and one-third rate. The hotels are making special offers during this season and all the traveling men are in. Altogether, it promises to be the great- est kind of a buying time. DICKENS GETS THE INDIANA. Capt. Taylor May Be Made Head of the Bureau of Navigation. WASHINGTON, July &%.—Capt. F. W.

NEGRO BRANCH IS GROWING, The Colored Membership Is Already $00,000 Distributed Among 1000 Regularly Chartered Chapters, - INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 25.—The re- port of the Rev. Edwin A. Schell, General Secretary of the Epworth League, as sub- mitted to the Board of Control now in ses- sion in this city is in part as follows: We have steadily grown, until to-day we number 26,450 chapters, with a membership of more than 1,730,000 in our own Methodist Church alone. tablished in Liberia, Hawaii, Alaska, Rus- sia; and Bishop McCabe is watching an op- portunity to plant in Manila. Our Japanese and Chinese chap.ers have rapidly increased in number. A German chapter in Zurich, Switzerland, numbers 300 members. The penper colored chapter is at Charleston, Among the matters which ought to claim your atteniion are: l. An intermediate Epworth League. Many expressions of regret came from the céntral office after the New York meeting that some action at approving an interme- diate league had not been taken. A resoilu- tion permitting such an organization where it seems necessary to the pastor and the official board is the least that can be rec- ommended. 2. The constitution ought to be amended so as to include the brotnerhood idea. Per- haps the fourth vice-president would agree to a phrase assigning it to his department. The constitution of either the Epworth or the Junior League should also provide for the graduation of the juniors and not leave this important matter as at present. 3. Some pronouncement ought to be made by the board of control in regard to Junior League contributions by the Woman’s Mis- sionary societies. The cabinet has resolved upon it several times; but it is still a mat- ter of inquiry and protest. A renewed in- terest in the Junior League on the part of many saintly women could be secured if their wishes, in part at least, could be met, 4. The work of the Junior League is 80 important that many write our office insist- ing that a cabinet officer should be at the head of this department. A special Junior League secretary has also been proposed, 5. The continued demand of our mission- ary workers for a special department de- voted to missions is again called attention. The number advocating measure has not apparently increased, the persistence of those who favor it works of success. 6. Some recommendation ought, it seems to me, to be made to secure the authoriza- tion of a merey and help coliection on the part of the Epworth League to be applied to the hospital and deaconess work. Collec- tions of many sorts, some of them’ abso- jutely unjustifiable, continue in spite of the provisions of the general Wpworth League's constitution. Some such general permis- sion as is suggested would be a better pre- ventative against irresponsible appeals than a mere prohibition of collections, 7. Bome special arrangements should be made to increase the circulation of the Epworth League reading course. It has already been proposed to the publishing agents that a commission be fixed for those who will engage personally in its sale. This has been thought impracticable. This Jan has merits, however, which seem to justity a formal request of this character, &. The question of celebrating the tenth Epworth Leagué anniversary by adopting a new badge has been referred to the this but ‘g soard of Control by the cabinet for their favorable | consideration.

The couple registered as ‘Austin Peck and wife, Poplar Bluff, Mo.,” at the Hotel Royal, Eighteenth and Olive streets, July 18, and remained three days. It appears that the couple did not marry. A dispatch from Poplar Bluff states that.an alleged marriage certificate was exhibited by the couple when they returned to Poplar Bluff. This certiflcate was signed “Frank Ross, Justice of the Peace in Montgomery County, Mo.,”’ and bore the signature of ‘‘Charles Browning’ as a witness. Wihen the oouple returned to Poplar Bluff Miss La Brier announced that she had been married to Peck at the Hotel Royal. The manager of the hotel] denies knowledge of this. His clerk stated that he remembered the couple distinctly, but knew of no marriage ceremony having been performed. Whatever the facts in the case may be Mr. Peck is in an undesirable position. He has run afoul of the law. His wife, whom he marr.ed five years ago, is still living, as are also two children by that union. She was Miss Nellile Fellin &.. and now resides with her parents at Pattonville, St. Louis County. Peck was held under bond in the sum of $00 to appear at Poplar Bluff Aug, 2. Peck emphatically declared to the Post- Dispatch at had not married Miss La Brier. He said the couple remained at the Royal several days and he den:ed that a marriage certi- ficate had been secured by them. aration from his wife, but talked freely about his own family. He is a nephew of George W. Sayers of the packing firm of Nizzerman & Sayers at Main and O'Fallon streets. When in St. Louis Peck makes his home with this uncle at 4044-Laclede avenue.

Dr. William Taussig, President of the St. Louis Bridge Co., and First Vice-President of the Union Trust Co., struck the Louis patriotism in his letter in yesterday’s Post-Dispatch. “No backward step” is his watchword. Appreciating the sincerity of doubt and hesitation on the part ¢ Dr. Taussig finds a value in them as a corrective and a restraint upon unbridled speculation. St the World's Fair in the solid, substantial manner in which St. Louis conducts keynote of St. Louisans, of Louis some Sf. errors should manage all of her She should gain wisdom from the errors of others and pluck success out of their failures. But Dr. Taussig has no doubt of the duty of St. Louis. He sums it up in one sentence: “WE STAND COMMITTED BEFORE QHE COUNTRY AND THE WORLD TO CARRY THIS UN- DERTAKING TO A SUCCESSFUL ISSUE, AND ITS ABAN- DONMENT WOULD EXPOSE US TO THE JUST CHARGE OF HAVING STARTED OUT WITH FALSE PRETEN- SIONS, ANID HAVING BEEN FORCED TO RETIRE WITH HUMBLED PRIDE AND SHATTERED REPUTA- TION.” St. and press on to succéss. She must keep in the van of progress, Dr. Taussig gives the watchword for all St. Louisans: “ABOVIc ALL, NO BACKWARD STEP, AT THE PREs.- ENT STAGE OF OUR ACTIVITIES, SHOULD BE THOUGHT To prevent any backward step and to make the forward step most effective there must be unity of purpose and har- mony of action on the part of all St. Louisans and 8t.

The invention described in the Sunday Post-Dispatch by Which the speed of railway trains can be more than doubled is to be tested on the New York Central Railroad. If this succeeds it will put St. Louis within 16 hours of New York. The business man can make the journey with the lInss of little time if he takes a night train. The merit of such inventions is that they insure haste without hurry. The fasiest trains are the most comfortable It is possible to take one’s ease while moving a hundred miles an hour. The traveler can mature his political or business schemes with as much composure in a well-ap- pointed palace car as in his library.

The list of municipal employes submitted to the Municipal Assembly by City Auditor Mason fills a book of 252 pages. The number of employes approximates 4500. In the Street Department alone there are 800 employes, more inen than the Police Department is permitted to employ for the guardianship of the entire city. There are inspectors galore. Twenty-three inspectors, besides a superintendent and a cierk,.are paid to see that the streets are sprinkled, but not a trace of evidence of their work can be discovered. There are 44 excavation inspectors and a superintendent doing nothing discoverable except political work. Then there are repair work inspectors, street railroad inspectors, street cleaning inspectors, street sweeping inspectors, sidewalk in- spectors, ete. Ingenuity has been exhausted to create places and spoils greed strained to the limit in multiplying them for spoils purposes. Payrolls are padded and relatives and friends of department chiefs to the farthest degrees are pro- vided for. Thes® are the “growing needs” of the city which Comp- troller Sturgeon urges as a bar to an appropriation which will meet the needs of the Folice Department. There was no protest when the infamous Wittenberg bill, vastly increasing the spoils places in the Street Department, was passed. There has been no protest against the continual packing of the payrolis. In order that the spoils grabs may be consum- mated public improvements are abandoned and the city is de- nied tl:e protection of an adequate police force. The Post-Dispatch has shown how the police may be util- ized for inspection. Four-fifths of the inspectors could be dispensed with. If the municipal government were economi- cally administered the police force could be increased to a sufficient number and there would be enough money for all necessary improvements. In order to hold the Police Board to strict accountability for poiice protection the force should be adequate for the work. A little honesty and efficiency applied to municipal business would meet the needs of St. Louis without increas- ing the burdens of taxation. ———_—_-— oe Italy’s unhappy financial condition will not be improved by the four pretentious and very costly battleships which she is to build. = = | - oe THE COAL TRUST IN ST, LOUIS. The Coal Trust is preparing to squeeze St. Louis consumers. The autocratic combine saves millions by “economies” and having a monopoly proposes to add yet more to their profits by raising prices. The less it costs to produce the fuel the higher the price. This is the logic of the monopoly trust. The reductions in price, which have occasionally followed their organization, are really gratuitous, and when the monopoly is once perfected there is no reason why any limit should be set to the increase save that fixed by the inability of con- sumers to pay for@what they must have. But there is no better illustration of the evils of monopoly than this Coal Trust. Its excesses are arguments, which cannot be misunderstood, against the policy of permitting private interests to monopolize public resources. >>. — War expenses in Great Britain are causing Government em- ployes to be overworked, and there is no money for public improvements. It is to be hoped that our own war expenses are not preventing the increase of space which is so much needed in the postoffice of St. Louis. At least, the Federal kids should have some place other than the newspaper-box delivery space in which to black their shoes. >= S * SS No genuine American cares a copper for the fact that an American woman is to be mistress olf the Palais Bourbon and “entertain royalty.”’ The American girl who has the good sense to choose a substantial and sensible mate from among her own countrymen is the one in which real Americans feel an interest. The reduction in the price of stamped envelopes has caused a large falling off in the sales of postal cards. The stamped envelope has the privacy which a postal card has not, and it excels the unstamped envelope because its stamp never comes off. It is proper that Mr. McKinley should be ambitious to serve a second term, but it is not proper that he should use the Federal patronage and distort the war news in order to secure a renomination. a A Ae In the election of Gov. Bradley the Kentucky Republicans tampered with the ballot box, and now they charge that the Democrats are to do just what they did. ———_—__—_—__—_—0oo There is nothing of treason in the sentiment which is op- posed to expansion by war. It is simply the sober second thought of an enlightened people. —~o-o-o——— It is a long coal haul from Pennsylvania to St. Louis. We may have to take to coal that is nearer, even at the risk of expanding the blanket. sb > eS POST-DISPATCH SNAP SHOTS.

American Humorist Tells Englishmen About Practical and Theoretical Morals. From His Speech at the New Vagabonds’ Dinner, “Tt has always been difficult—leave that word difficult—not exceedingly difficult, but just difficult, nothing more than that, not the slightest shade to add to that—just dilf- ficult to respond properly,'‘in the right phraseology, when compliments are paid to me; but it is more than difficult when the compliments are paid to a better than I— my wife. And while I am not here to tes- tify against myself—I can’t be expected to do so, a prisoner in your own country is not admitted to do so—as to which member of the family wrote my books, I could say in general that. really I wrote the books myself. My wife puts the facts in, and they make it respectable. In Mr. Grossmith’s remarks there was a subtle something sug- gesting my favorite theory of the difference between theoretical morals and practical morals. I try to instill practic morals in the place of theatrical—I mean theoret- ical. But as an addendum—an annex, something added to theoretical morals. When your Chairman said it was the first time he had ever taken the chair, he did not mean that he had not taken lots of other things.

He said: ‘The stamina and endurance of these English athletes are enormous, and we have to learn a jot in this direction. I rather expected the downfall of Burke. Nature has given him the wonderful gift of speed and endurance, but Burke has not lived in the last year according to aihletic rules, and, consequently, his stomach was affected. Still, we must not forget that the time made is equal to the best performance of Burke. America has two performers who could beat such figures—Kilpatrick, who did the trick a shade over 1:58, and Man- vell, who once ran 1:55 2-5. Our representa- tives were badly fouled in trying to beat the pacemaker, and when they saw their mistake it was too late. Boardman ran a time was a trifle too The twenty-round bout Leon of New York and Morris Rauch of Chicago, which took place at the West ond Club Monday night, ended with al! hands cheering for one mian or the other. The battle lacked the science, the gener- alship and the continuons ciean exchange of blows which marked the meeting be- tween Clarence Forbes and Leon, but it interested every one for all that It was an exhibition of catoch-as-catch- ean Graeco-Roman and a little slugging thrown in, rather than an interesting exhi- bition of scientifie bowing, such as was to have been expected from two such famous exponents of the firstic game as Rauch and Leon.

They play the New Yorks Tuesday and Wednesday afetrnoons, and by taking both Games they will help themselves materially in the championship race. The champions out-played the Reds at Cincinnati Monday and won by a score of 8 to 3.. That helped their stock a little. Last week was a busy one for the Wash- ingtons. They played 10 games. Among their contests were three double-headers with the Clevelands. They got $161 for their exhibition game in Johnstown, Pa., Saturday. They will play there again to- day and to-morrow. The team also has exhibition games arranged at Montreal] and Toronto, Canada. Charlie Comiskey is very anxious to get Harry Vaughn, the ex-Cincinnati catcher. He has made the big catcher an offer. In a letter to a friend in this city Comiskey, writing about Vaughn, said: “Try and*get Vaughn to join me. He will help me out in the afternoon with the bats and in the evening by making short speeches. So send him along. I bought 100 pictures of the Terrible Turk and 1 am going to put them all out on the day Harry plays his first game. -Yours truly, “CHARLES COMISKEY.” Jack Taylor is bent on getting away from the Cincinnati team. He realizes that the only way he can get his release is by the tradipg route. He said Monday that he in- tended to do such good work for the Reds from now on that he would be in demand. “I'll pitch good ball and do my best,’’ said Taylor. “I Nave worked during my vacation, and I am lighter now than I have been this season. The report about what my suspension cost me is all wrong.” “In what way?" was asked. “The reports have it that I lost $500 by My suspension,’’ was the reply. ‘‘That isn’t ‘a marker. It isn’t half what that lay off I am out just $1200.”"’ j ’" was asked. lost $100 a week for the five I . said Taylor. “‘Then the Cinctin- neti Club is holding out $700 to enforce the temperance clause, Capt. Ewing tells me I will lose that also. Do you blame me for Wanting to get away from Cincinnati?” Twelve hundred is pretty expensive for a little fun, but Jack will have to pay it. Nic Young says: “I am as much the plavers’ friend as the magnate's,’’ whereat every player in the League holds his sides to keep them from bursting. Louisville got a clever player, fully worth the $1000 paid for him, in First Baseman Mike Kelly of Hartford. He will hold his own in the League. Secom' Baseman O'Brien of the Pittsburg team, who was touted as a weak hitter, has been batting a .’~U clip since he joined the Pirates. Burkett and Heldrick of St. Louis had «a elore race for the 100th base-hit mark. Burk. ett got there first last Saturday. The mare's showing was of the poorest order, and the judges decided to rale her cff. She belongs to G. W. Curtis aha wit! her Barriso and Imp. King Gold will also ZO. Tom Collins, a first choice, won the fifth by a block. Collins was the best and showed tmprovement. Banfsh and Alleviate were the next two. \Moralist, a 10 to 1 shot, won the last race easily. Why he was that long price is not known. Moralist has always taken kindly to mud and though his wins were few he was hardly ever out of the money. The Foing stopped Hittick, Basquil, Rebel Jack and Sir Rollo, the other starters. Salvarse, another horse who has been run- ning in and out of late, was ruled -off by the judges Monday. She is the property of W. L. Lansing. At the Harlem meeting up to Saturday Nutt led all the jockeys there.

A rather doubtful compliment was paid him a short time ago in the Way ofa leather medal for his seance with a waiter at Ascot. The medal bears a flower at the top and an inscription for valor, with the picture of a champagne bottle as an ac- companiment, makes up the centerpiece. The pendant bears the words: “Presented for Bravery to J. T. Sloan, Esq.. for Pre- venting a Waiter From Swallowing a Cham- pagne Bottle. Ascot, June 15, 1899.”’ The Leon-Rauch contest had one redeem- ing feature. It showed the pluck and cour- age that was in both the youngsters, for they roughed it from Siart to finish and gave each cther all soris of punishment. As the battle progressed Leon appeared to grow in heizhth and width and to tower over his oppenent. Rauch’s crouching position made him at times iook nearly a head shonter than the other man, and to be no match for him at all in size. There were moments when Leon appeared big and strong enough to finish his man and to ‘be about to deliver the coup de grace, but just as tne eventful moment ap- peared at hand Rauch would come to life and str:ke out as swiftly and bravely as at any other stage of the battle. The splendid courage which the little fel- low showed under the grueling punishment which Leon dealt,unsparingiy to him, won the sympathy of the crowd, and had the referee called it a draw there were some of the spectators who would have applauded him. The decision of the referee, which gave the battle to Leon, was received with cheers which shook the building, and which were a complete indorsement of the verdict. The two weighed in in the afternoon at 115 pounds. The battle was uneventful until the sixth round, when Leon’drew the claret from Rauchs’ left eye, with a vicious rignt hand swing. In the eighth round Rauch slipped and fell to. the floor, It looked Ike a knock- down, but it could hardly be counted that, In the fourteenth round Rauch fouled Leon, but apologized and the apology was gracefully accepted by Leon extending his hand. In the fifteenth round Leon rushed Rauch to the ropes and acted as though he was going to finish him. In the last three rounds Rauch rallied and by his brave work won all gorts of ap- plause from the big crowd that was in attendance. In the contest between the jockeys, Lines ond Guiteres, and Kane and Kelly, the first was declared a draw and the second was given to Kane after three rounds of too lively fighting. Prof. One-Eyed Connelly entertained the Pittsburg baseball team for an hour with an anti-trust speech the other evening at New York. He opened with the demand, ‘“‘Haul down the stars and stripes and put up the dollar sign—the embiem of our country.’’ ‘Connelly forgot to take out a license and an unappreciative policeman broke up the seance.

Al Weinig, the Buffalo cycling pugtilist, may meet Doe Payne, McCoy's sparring partner, before the Olympic Club of Buf- falo in August. Oscar Gardner writes from his home in Wheeling, W. Va., that his long rest has done him a lot of good. He expects to fight Dixon or MeGovern toward the latter part of September. Kid McCoy arrived in Davenport, Io., last night, where he has signed to box two men: five rounds each before the Tri-City Athletic Club on Aug. 10. Harry Harris and Joe Huglett will go 2% rounds to a decision on the same night. good race, fast f@ him. ‘Next year, if we get a re- turn match, I think we will turn the table.”’ —_— eo. --——_- THE FAIR GROUNDS ENTRIES.

They Will Soon Be Seen Again on Eastern Race Courses. SAN FRAINCISCO, July 25.—For 24 con- secutive years, until 1898, the black, red and Maltese cross of ‘‘Lucky"’ Baldwin was seen at the Saratoga meeting. During these many years dozens of California honses scored winning brackets, and the Santa Anita stall enjoyed a reputation second to none. Early in 1898 Baldwin became qiis- gusted with his turf ventures and vowed that he would never race another horse | he other side of the Rockies. He has now changed his mind and yesterday announced that the Santa Anita stable would be repre- sented in the astern tracks in 1900 with a bigger string than ever before. The master of Santa Anita has also de- cided that he will not have any more auc- tion sales, but will train and race every horse bred at his famous farm in Los An- geles County. At present there are 16 horses in training at Santa Anita, while olds, principally by Emperor of Norfolk and the Prince’ Charlie stallion, Amigo. Connoisseurs, who have examined these youngsters, pronounce the Emperor of Nor- folk—Miss Ford colt to be one of the grand- est appearing individuals ever raised at the ranch, The Santa Anita stable has not held its own the past three or four years, but Bald- win intends to be in the swim once again next year. He cannot forget the brilHant victories achieved by Emperor of Norfolk, Los Angeles, Rey el Santa Anita, Lucky B., Volante, Santa Ana, Gano, Sinaloa, Mollie McCarthy and many other turf stars that first saw the light of day at Santa Anita. “I should say that Rey del Carredes was the fastest horse ever bred at Santa An- ita,”’ said Baldwin, in answer to a direct question. “Sinaloa was the greatest race mare, as a glance at her record in a mile and a quarter race on the day Salvator es- tablished the world’s record for one mile at 1:53 over a straightaway cdurse, will show, but I think Rey del Carredes was the that ever stood up-on iron. He worked a mile so fast that few people would credit the performance if I gave the time, as it was so much faster than had ever before been accomplished. A few weeks afterward Richard Croker gave me $40,000 for the horse and $10,000 for the rac- ing qualities of Rey el Santa Anita. He wanted to take them over to England. where they both afterwards failed to lve up to their American record, “Rut this was not surprising, as Croker insisted on securing an English trainer, al- though Sam Hildreth was very anxious to take charge of these horses. If Croker had followed my advice and taken Hildreth with him. Rey del Carredes would have displayed ‘his phenomenal speed on the English tracks, l but the horse did not take Kindly to the levstem of training across the water, which ig sO opposite to the American method.

Cable advices were in the main bullish, though we hag news from foreign markets vearish tendency. "Yi strpscl spent tnd lower, but recovered rapid- ly. The second cable came only -\d lower, aud | the close was 144 higher than yesterday's close Of the very scarce news from domestic points the majority was bullish.

The call was issued | pursuant to the action of the voters of | the town of Kirkwdod at the election held ' last Tuesday when the old charter was surrendered, and by a Vote of 173 to 17 it was decided to incorporate as a c.ty of the fourth class under the new State law, Which does not require a charter. At the coming election these officers will be chosen: Mayor, six aldermen, marshal and collector. It is probable that nominat- Ing conventions will be held In each ward merely as a matter of form in asguming the airs of a «ty. Judge Jacobi says that such a procedure {s not necessary, but Kirkwood does not propose to omit any- thing becoming a city in the future manipu- lation of public affairs.
