NHW YORK, Dec: 22.—The National City Bank has been chosen by the Government as the depository for all the internal rev- enue receipts. It means that Secretary Gage has given this mighty institution, which is believed to have been instrumen- tal in causing this week’s panic, an op- portunity to make $50,000 a day and not be out a penny in the transaction. Tt means that all the Government's rev- enue received from taxes on tobacco, spirits, malt liquors, deeds, mortgages, ~willa.. telegrams, checkg—all the pation’s | revenue except ‘customs dues, in short will be deposited daily in this one bank, to be distributed among other banks or loaned at interest, as the National City Bank directors choose, and the bank will not pay a cent for the amazing and tre- mendous favor. These deposits will amount to nearly $1,000,000 a day, and certainly $5,000,000 a week, or $260,000,000 a year. The bank pays no interest to the Government for the use of the money, but it must deposit United States bonds with the United States Treas- urer as securiy for the loan. The bank then receives not only the use of the pub- lic’s money free of charge, but the interest on the bonds as well. The National City Bank already has 10,000,000 on deposit. It is closely allied with the Standard Oll Trust and the Sugar Trust. It is the most powerful institution in the country. It has the largest capital stock, increased on Dec. 3 from $1,000,000 to $10,- 000,000. It has the most imposing direc- tory, including William Rockefeller, repre- @enting the Standard Oil interests; H. Wal- ter Webb and William Douglas Sloane, rep- resenting the Vanderbilt interests; Robert Bacon of J. Pierpont Morgan & Co., O. Havemeyer of the Sugar Trust, Jacob H. Schiff, representing such vast interests as those back of the great Union Pacific syn- dicate; John A. McCall of the New York life Insurance Co. It is a bank of railway kings and trust barons and all manner of great interests that have direct concern in national finan- cial and commercial legislation. The Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. Gage, than, d years. ago, has an. and unmade Presidents half a century ago? c ccc has selected this bank as the beneficiary of a colossal financial favor. He has or- dered that the internal revenue receipts of the Government ghall be paid over to it to use or distribute. So far-reaching has been the influence of this great bank in the recent financial strain that it was with the keenest inter- est that Wall street heard that the bank had been made practically the financial agent of the Government. Not since President Jackson's historic. fight with the United States Bank, more bank attained a position ef such para- mount importance and power in the busi- ness community as the National City Bank now enjoys. ‘7 GAGE’S EXPLANATION. His Action Was Taken to Relieve the Money Stringency. NEW YORK, Dec. 22.—A dispatch from Washington quotes Secretary Gage as say- ing: The Treasury has endeavored to re- lieve a money stringency in the only way that it could do so legitimately. By of- fers to purchase bonds, to anticipate inter- est due without and with rebates, and to go without the income to be derived from internal revenue, so that the money could become available through’ the depositaries, it has done what it seemed proper to do. Since it offered ta take up $25,000,000 of bonds, the prices of bonds have advanced, and they hold their price, while many stocks have fa! many points on the mar- kets. Some of the bonds now on the quoted list would be worth to purchasers less than 2 per cent at the price made. Of the $25,- 000,000 of bonds the Treasury offered to buy, but $20,000,000 have been offered. The offer is still on ene We may get the other 35.000, 000 or $6,000,000. Altogether there will be released from ury control and made avallable for immediate use at va- Frious points, as the Treasury could not discriminate in favor of one city in in- creasing its deposits in banks, about $36,- 000,000. As I have said, the prices of bonds have advanced. They are now beyond the price at which the Treasury offered to buy them. How much should the Treasury offer to pay, and when it has offered to pay a price will that price be advanced again? That seems to be a matter worthy of careful consideration.“ POST-DISPATCH WAR ‘CORRESPONDENT ESCAPES. 1 r=. Lieut. Winston Churchill Cables That He Has Arrived Safely at Delagoa Bay. . LONDON, Dec. A.—Lady Randolph Churchill has received a cable dispatch from her son, Winston Churchill, the war correspondent of the New York World and St. Louis Post-Dispatch, who was captured by the Boers in Natal and taken to Pre- toria, and whose escape from there was announced Dec. 14, saying he had arrived safely at Delagoa Bay. ‘The Pall Mall Gazette’s correspondent describes Churchill's conduct in the ac- tion in which he was made prisoner as follows: A party of volunteers, consisting principally of plate layers, etc., led by Winston Churchill, who behaved throughout with most heroic courage, succeeded in placing the rails. under a terrible fire. Mr. Churchill had previously assisted in carrying in no less than 3 men Some idea of the accuracy of the enemy’s fire and of Mr. Churchill's courage may be obtained by rarrating the fact that a Boer shell burst in front of Mr. Churchill, killing two men on each side of him. Our wounded were now dotting the veldt on each side. The continued rifle fire and the weird sound of the quick fires added to the horrors of the situation. At last the Une was clear and the engine, with one carriage. of the armored train, was enabled to return to Frere, leaving Capt. Haldane's party flercely engaged. The Boers gave it a passing salvo of shells, hitting the tender and nearly derailing the train a second time.“ "FILIPINOS BUYING CANNON. THE WEATHER INDICATIONS. RAIN OR.

BOY CHARGED. WITH MURDER He Is Accused of Having Killed a Young Hunter in Revenge for the Death of His Dog. ST. JOSEPH, Mo., Dec. 22.—Roy Young, aged 16, is under arrest charged with the ales murder of Thomas Abbott, a young man whose body was found a week ago south of the city. It is claimed that Abbott ac- cidentally shot young Ray's dog and that the boy killed him in revenge. The evi- dence upon which the arrest was made was secured by the father of Abbott's fiancee, Miss Lily Martinek. The death of Abbott has been looked on ag a mystery. MIRTH FOR ALL. THER, SOLDIER.

Mark Twain was the first great American humorist to figure in the series inaugurated two weeks ago by the Sunday Post-Dis- h. goer W.

Each will write upon a subject best suited to his own style of humor, and the public will be treated to some of the rich- est reading matter ever put forth by a newspaper. In fact, it may be said that a more notable series of articles than these humorous contributions was never attempt- ed by a newspaper. They are well worth preserving. Prominent educators and thinkers have written the following articles for the next Sunday Post-Dispatch: “The Perils of Expansion,” by Prof. Ar- thur M.

Rev. Mr. Gott is arranging to give . Christmas dinner at the mission to the poor and has solicitors at work securing funds and provisions. These solicitors are duly authorized by Mr. Gott, each having cre- dentials properly signed by the pastor of the mission. The collections were coming in satisfactorily and the Christmas dinner plans were working out smoothly until a mysterious woman, middle-aged and fairly good-looking, appeared at several town stores. One place she called was at the William Barr Dry Goode Co., where she asked for Mr. Joseph Frankiin, vice- president of the company, and told him that she was soliciting funds for the Union Mission. She presented a letter purporting to have been signed by the Levis-Zukoski Millinery Co., in which the Union Mission | was recommended to the charitable public. Mr. Franklin observed that the signature was typewritten and became suspicious. He dismissed the woman's request and then wrote to the vis-Zukoski firm asking whether they authorized the letter. This occurred on Wednesday. Thursday morning Mr. Zukoski replied to Mr. Franklin and denounced the letter pre- sented by the mysterious woman as a for- gery While Mr. Zukoski was attaching is signature to this reply a tall, stately woman, handsome and dressed in black, was ushered into his office.

A bulletin issued last week communicated the tidings to the public that Mr. Moody was very fll, but that a little improvement was noticed. This week the patient showed a steady gain until yes- terday, when he showed symptoms of ner- | yousness, accompanied by weakness, which caused the family much anxiety.

ERIE MAN AGER DEFENDS THE RAILROAD AGREEMENT. SMALL SHIPPERS SUFFERERS. It Is Asked by Petition That the United States Attorney-General Be Asked to Take Action. ‘WASHINGTON, Deo. 22—The hearing before the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion, called on account of complaints made by shippers against the proposed new classification of freight by railroads oper- ating under the “official classification,” was resumed to-day. By agreement, Frank Harriott, general traffic manager of the Erie, and a mem- ber of the Official Classification Commit- tee, went on the witness stand to testify . as to the new classification. He reiterated - Mr. Gin's statement of yesterday that the new classification was adopted because the railroads absolutely needed the increased | revenues. On many car load rates no ad- vance, it was felt by the committee, could be made, but it was felt that on short hauls that were less than car load lots could afford to pay the added rates. This arrangement would enable shippers to take advan:age of carload rates to a gen- — — country. — — restraint of trade and to that extent a violation of existing law. It was determined finally that the ship- — would offer some testimony, and B. W. rown, representing Schofield, Shurmer & Teagle of Cleveland, O., was sworn. He sai new classification on petroleum would be absolutely ruinous to small ship- pers. On less than car load lots the in- crease above the rates on car load lots was in some instances as much as 273 per cent and in no case was it less than 88 per cent. Mr. Brown said the small ship- pers of oil could not successfully compete with the Standard Ol] Co., because the eral distributing point, the rallroads there getting some advantage from added rates on the short hauls from distributing points. The Classtfication Committee did not con- sider the market prices of articles on which the classification was raised.

So far as was practica- ble the committee and the Beg mae . were ready and anxious to so far as pos- sible any inustkes that m at exist in the classification.

WHEN HE WAS FRIGHTENED. — wee Gen. Lawton Owned to Being Scare Once in His Life. | WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.—About a year ago a big public dinner was given by the Gridiron Club, at which Shafter, Lawton, Schley, Sigsbee and other war heroes were present, besides the Peace Commieésion- ers. the Cana llan high joints, members of the Cabinet, diplomats and President Mc- Kinley. Gen. Miles, who was a guest, late in the afternoon decided to wear an evening suit, instead of his uniform, and this, of course, overned the other mijitary men. Lawton, owever, in some way was not not led, much to his own disgust. He was, how- ever, the picture of a soldier, and Secre- ta J Gage, after studying the man a while, Se to his next door neighbor at the ta- e: That is my ideal of a soldier. I believe that man, if given a chance, will make a name for himself in the history of this country, and if necessary he would die at the head of his troops with as sterp a sense of duty as he would saiute his supe- rior officer.“ Shafter, Siesbee, Miles and the othere were called on in turn, and made little 6 ches, and then the chairman men- tioned Lawton’s ‘name. He rose, tail, erect and gray, looked around the room a moment, bowed, and sat down amid a tumult of applause from the distinguished guests preset, who readily understood his motives.

MARKET IS WELL SUPPORTED. — —— — There Are Heavy Drops in Stocks at the Opening, but Rallies Bring Recoveries of One-Halt. BOSTON, Dec. 22.—There was @ nervous feeiing apparent in financial quarters to- day before the opening of business, on account of the troubled aspect of the sit- uation resulting from the closing of the Globe National Bank. Considerable confidence was expressed, however, that the action of the clearing house last week in making certificates aveilable thropgh a committee to banks in cape of emergency would-avert any further serious failures. At the Globe Bank to-day all the clerks were busy when the regular hour for opén- ing came, but the doors remained closed and a notice bearing the signature of D. G. Wing, temporary receiver, gave the rea- son. e stock market was expected to feel the disturbed conditions most keenly, and many consuitations were held and some active work was done in copper circies before the exchange opened. The galleries of the Stock Exchange were crowded to-day when business began. e market was weak at the opening. Trad- ing was animated and violent. Fluctua- tions in Sugar were recorded. Coppers were a trifle weak, recovering half of the loss almost immedi- ately. United States Oil 9 2%, but rallied quickly. The market showed good support. eceiver Win and President H. H. Stevens of the Globe Bank declined to say anything about the situation to-day. although a number of out of town cus- tomers, who came to draw money for Christmas, were considerably upset by the inforgmaation that the bank was closed. Dur —1 the forenoon the National Shaw aot Bank made public the following no- ce: “That there may be as little inconven- lence as possible to the depositors of the Globe National Bank and others, the Na- tional Shawmut Bank Offers to advance to- day to all depositors in the Globe against their deposits 50 per, cent of the net amount of the same.”’ The following is a condensed statement of the condition of the bank, as reported to the Comptroller on Dec. 2, 1899: Liabilities, capital stock, $1,000,000; surplus, $120,000; un- divided profits, $144,765; circulation, $891,100; deposits, $8,099,007; bills payable, $275,000; to- tal, $10,529,958. sources, loans and dis- ,578,104; United States bonds to nited States deposits, $190,000; premium on bonds, $139,350; stocks and se- curities, $1,092,202; cash on hand and due from banks, $2,635,297; total, $10,529,963. The action of the National Shawmut Bank had an excellent effect in all circles and within a short time after it had become known, except r a feverish tendency in some transactions on the tock x- change, the financial sections of the city were as qu.et as usual. It was learned in connection with the Globe Bank case to-day that of the $3.500,- 000 advanced by the Boston Clearing House to the bank last Saturday, $200,000 has been repaid. The nominal market value of the securities given the clearing house for the loan is $4,600,000. Correspondents of the Globe Will Not Lose by the Suspension. NW YORK, Dec. 22.—The correspon- dents in this city of the Globe National Bank of Boston, which yesterday went into the hands of a receiver, are the Bank of North America, the Hanover National and the National City Bank. The most of the Globe National's business was tran- sacted through the Bank of North Ameri- ca. There are small balances to the G.obe National Bank’s credit in each of these three banks.

LONDON, Dec. 22.—Busineés on the Stock Exchange to-day was quieter and there was less pears to sell, but the weakness continued owing to the indisposition of speculators to buy with the holiday set- tlement so close at hand and widespread fears in connection with the settlement of South African securities.

Tom Loftus Reported as Not Satisfied With His New Position With Hart’s Club. Charley Comiskey, the old commander of St. Louis’ famous four-time winners, has declared himeelf against the National League. } Comiskey is now the manager of the St. | Paul Club of the American League, for- merly the Western League, and he wants to move that cfiub into Chicago. Jim Hart, president of the National League Club, objects and now Comiskey se ys he will put a team in Chicago wheth- er Hart likes it or not., In fact, at Chi- cago on Thursday, Comiskey came out fiat-footed with the statement that he would put an American League club in Chicago, national agreement or no agree- ment. President Hart of the Chicago Ball Club could not keep his team out of Chi- cago. There's no use fooling over this any longer,“ said Comiskey. “I am going to have a club of my own in Chicago next season. Hart says we can’t get a club in bere without getting his permission. Well, We don’t want his permisslon. It isn’t needed. Mr. Hart has assured some innocent re- porter that the president of the Chicago Club will have the say-so in the matter, and unless we want to break the national agreement the talk of a second club its all bosh, We.l, all this may bea very peasant reverie for Mr. Hart, but did you ever give a thought to what may happen when he Wakes up? “I think that the American League man- agers are perfectly willing to break that agreement which has been packed in tin Toil for the last few years. hat package is getting too musty. It has lost its flavor. It never did us a particle of good and we will be much wetter off without it.’ In connection with the assertion that Cemiskey will have a club in Chicago the rumor loobs up that the status of Tom Loftus as manager of the Chicago Club is not setted. President Hart has officially denied that there is the slightest friction between him and his new manager, yet the report that Loftus is not satisfied will not down. Loftus is credited with having told a friend of his while in New York that he was deeply disappointed at not having more money at his disposal in buying play- ers. Loftus is also said to have made the assertion that he did not have a writ- ten contract. ' Friends of Loftus want critics to sus- pend judgment urtil he has been in the har- ness a little longer. They assert, and cer- tain.y with some justice, that opportunity to strengthen the Chicago team may pre- sent itself later on, and that at present there is not a high-class player which can be had for love or money. ANSON AT PHILADELPHIA. The Grand Old Man Talks About the American Association. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 22.—Adrian C. An- son, long the central figure of the national game, was in town yesterday. He was on his way to Baltimore, where his daughter is temporarily living. To a reporter he spoke hopefully of the proposed American Association. He said that to his positive knowledge Boston, St. Louis and Chicago were ready now to start signing players, and that he expected to hear of final ar- rangements being made in Philadelphia be- fore he leaves the East. The present idea of the promoters of the new organization would be to have clubs in Chicago and St. Louis, and probably Milwaukee and De- troit, making four Western clubs, which with Boston, New York, Philadelphia and ne other Eastern city, would make up the full = er Sax 7 K Nr 3 x 2 * 9 n 1 * 85 2 B i ‘ rn : c e * * 1 a 2 3 * 7 * * ’ ge 8 ey 8 1 * 1 . 5 5 NI 90 ial Sa For ome . — (9000 LUCK CORNER.) vga aaa WwW.

A war- rant charging him with the theft of 3240 is in the hands of the sheriff and two dep- uties are searching the city for the ac- cused. ’ At his homo, 2710 St. Vincent avenue, no information is obtainable. A card bearing the name of Mark Leavenworth was taken from over the belibutton Friday morning. At the office of the Wool ouring Co. the proprietors will not discuss the case. They say they are investigating and can- not make a statement at this time, Mr. Hellman swore to the warrant and now intimates that the amount was too small. He will not say that he has discivered ad- dijional losses, but lays great Stress on “deve.opments” that rae expected to be turne@ up during the next few days. Sheriff Troll is anxious to find Mr. Leav- enworth, Friday morning the whole avail- able staff was turned loose to look for him. Deputy Sheriff Wickman was at the residence until 1 o’clock Friday morning. Leavenworth was in the employ of the Model Wool ring for one year. Suspicion was not directed to him untl last month when the payroll over which he had supervision was submitted to Messrs. Hellman and Goodlove, the proprie- tors, its amount caused comment. It was OG. K. d. and an investigation begun. The result was that the proprietors found names on the payroll and no owners in the estab- lishment. Leavenworth was charged with 2 the list. Iman, Friday, would not discuss the case. He "said there might be others implicated, and there might not; the Inver tigation had not proceeded far enou ugh. practically acknowledged that the all a defalcation exceeded the amount stated in the warrant. Mrs, Leavenworth is a little woman with lots of spirit, and valian ly defends her hus- band. She admits nothing, but answers no uestlons other than that he is not at home. hursday night she ordered Deputy Sheriff Wickman from the place. The officer re- fused to go, and Mrs. Leavenworth resorted to tears. The sheriff stayed. At 1 o’clock he did go, but Friday morning there was a deputy watching the house at daylight. AN UNFOUNDED.

ASYLUM RETURN OF THE COMMISSIONERS FROM THE EAST. MEETING HELD AT THE LACLEDE Some Questions Concerning Title to the Lands at Farmington Will Be Set- tled Within Ten Days. The commission appointed by Gov. Ste- phens to locate and superintend the erec- tion of the new asylum for the insane in Southeast Missouri, to be known as Asy- lum No. 4, returned to St. Louis Friday from à trip through the Eastern States where its members inspected State insti- tutions of the. kind they wish to erect that are considered models in their con- struction and arrangement. The commissioners, immediately upon their arrival in St. Louis, held a meeting at the Laclede Hotel, where they discussed the ideas they had procured from their visit. They als> considered some ques- tions that have arisen concerning the title to the land they have purchased at Farm- ington, Mo., upon which to erect the asy- lum. It was agreed, after investigating these obstacles, that they were of minor important and may be easily adjusted to the satisfaction of all parties concerned. Before the meeting adjourns from St. Louis, a committee will be appointed to see that the title is made clear before the work of erecting the building begins. Senator Hohenschild of Rolla, Mo., archi- tect of the commission, accompanied the commissioners on their visit to the East, and inspected the model institutions with them. e procured copies of the plans and specificaticns of eac which he will use in drafting the plans of the new buiid- ing. Upon visiting an asylum, the com- missioners pointed out to him the features they wish to introduced in the Missouri building, and he examined every detail of them. It is hoped by the commission to procures in this way, all the advantages of the leading Eastern asylums for Missrour!. The commission will probably remain in session in St. Louis until Saturday after- noon. An adjournment will be taken in time to allow the members to do Christmas shopping, and get to their homes in time to distribute their presents, „We were given cordial treatment wher- ever we went,“ sald J. Ed Berry, Secretary f the Commission, in discussing the trip Friday. „very facility for accomplishing the purpose of our visit satisfactorily was ted us. and, whenever we asked for copies were cheerfully sup- of 7 „ they 30 | plied by the authorities of the institutions we visited. “Of co it is impossible now for us efini what le of building we — 5 15 do — We ing the beca inform him just what we want. Bet er 5 3 — — — — — a shadow to their substance with our pres- ent resources. But we shall do our best, and will certainly see that Missouri has the best institution that the appropriation can procure. “The members of the Commission are fa- vorably impressed with the cottage plan of treating insane persons.‘ It is most gen- erally in vogue in t East, and the reports upon it are all satisfactory. 1 do not know whether we will have enough money to lace such a plan in operation in Missouri, but I think I may safely say we will try to introduce it if possible. The work of building the new asylum will begin early next spring.“ The members of the Commission who went on the Eastern trip, with Secretary Berry. were: D. Allen of Butler, J. L. Buchanan of California, Dr. C. H. Rigg of Middle- town, O. C Clay of Canton. THEY DON’T LIKE DR. JORDAN. Unexpected Explosion“ in Merchants’ League Club. There was a large explosion!“ in the Merchants’ League Club Wednesday night when the name of Dr. G. A. Jordan, Chief Dispensary Physician, was presented as an applicant for membership. Dr. Max Stark- loff, Health Commissioner, stood sponsor for Dr. Jordan. To many members of the club Dr. Jor- dan is persona non grata. He is accused of being too lukewarm a Republican to be a desirable member of the Merchants’ League Club. Some of his enemies go so far as to declare he is no Republican at all, but rather a good Democrat. A roar of protests went up when his name was presented. Mark Chartrand, who is recognized as the Zlegenhein megaphone in the club, made a bitter speech, in which he also criticized the action of Dr. Stark- loff in 1 Dr. Jordan’s name. Dr. Starkloff replied warmly and declared, so some of the club members admit, that if Dr. Jordan's petition were turned down he would withdraw from the club and take with him every employe of the Health De- partment who was also a member. To restore peace in the organization, Dr. Jordan's petition was referred, with others, to the Board of Diyggctors, who will pass upon it.
