LONDON, Jan. 11.—The most conserve- tive London papers admit that Great Brit- ain is cutting a sorry figure t@ the eyes of the world. At the end of three months of wer these are the condit!foas: The Boers have not been beaten at « single point. England has failed to accomplish with over 100,000 men what she expected to do with 25,q00. . Every British commander has biundered. Not a single strategical movement has been made. The Roer army has been haagdled more skillfully than the British. The fourth month of war begins with 120,000 British soldiérs on the defensive, with a British Field Marshal In éammand and two full Generals, four Lieutenant. Generals and 14 Major-Generals at the head of his @ivisions—the power of a vast en- pire held at bay by the uncouth farmers of two Republics that are but dots on the map of South Africa. .

It was remarkable because of the una- nimity of sentiment manifested, the ab- sence of any suggestion of partisanship and representative character of the attendance. St. Louta business men have never come together to meet any crisis with such earnestness. There has seldom been an asseenblage which represented so convinc- ingly the best business element and the strong convictions of that e.ement, The intt.ative had been taken by the Real Estate Exchange, and the call was issued by the President of the Exchange. and, as was fitting real estate men and property owners predominated in the at- tendance, but the invitation had been made general, and it was accepted generally to and beyond the capactty of the hail. The attendance at the meeting was en- tirely represe i tative. it Was plain that politica did not enter into the motives of the men in the leest.

Lighting Situation Is Now “Up to’”’ the House of Delegates, Which Is Said to Be Still Defiant and Inclined to Inaction. od . ae The Council Thursday morning passed the three new temporary lighting bills with a rush. All votes upon them were unanimous. Ev- ery device for hastening legis.ative action Was resorted to. Every member had made up his mind to support the bills, and no time was wasted in discussion, although several members explained their vote. The Committee on Public Improvements met before the Council session and agreed upon a favorable report. Having repdrted upon them, the rules were suspended and the bills sent to engrossment. The Com- mittee on Engrossed and Enrolled Bills met at once and hasti.y examined the bDiils and reported them back to the Council. Under the suspension of the rules, the bills were immediately passed by an unan- lomus vote, But the passage of the bilis was ac- companied by several short speeches ex- planatory of votes, which bristled with de- nunciation of President McMath and his colleagues on the Board of Public Im- provements, whom the speakers held responsibie for the emergency that has oc- curred. The quick action on the part.of the Coun- cil lays all the responsibility for further delay in relieving the present emergency upon the House of Delegates. The House meeis Friday night. It is understood tbat at a caucus of the combine, it was decided to present an un- broken front to the storm of popular in- dignation that is now raging against them, and to persist in their policy of insistence upon municipal ownership of light!ng plants for olty buildings and institutions. The Council met Thursday morning at 11:80 o'clock. It was set for U1 o'clock, but the oS tengy | of the Public Improvements Committee delayed the meeting. This com- mittee met to consider the three new tem- porary lighting bills. At the Council Com- mittee’s suggestion the City Lighting Com- mittee of the Board of Public Improve- ments met with it for the purpose of ex- pla:ning the bills. The members of the “ouncll Committee are Messrs. Horton, Meysenburg and Thuner. welve members of the Council present. Mr. Gast was the absentee. Mr. Hodges introduced a bill transfer- ring $3000 from the salary appropriation of the sewer department to the repair fund. He explained that Mill Creek sewer needed repairing and there was no money for this purpose, “The Sewer Commissioner has conducted his apartment so econumically,"" said Mr. Hodges, “that he has a surplus in the salary fund and wishes to uee it to prevent disaster to Mill Creek sewer.”’ After the routine business had been dils- peers of Chairman William M. Horton of he Public Improvements Committ re-, ported the three temporary lighting bills, - with a recommendation that they be passed. He then moved thet the rufes be suspend- ed and that the bills be given immediate conelderation. There was a cherus of seconds. On motion of Mr. gent to engrossment. The Dills were immediately taken pos- session of by the Commitee cn Engrossed and Enrolled Bils, composed of Measrs. Hoffman, Kratz and Thuner, and a recess was taken to allow the committee time to pete upon. them. en minutes later the Council reconvened and Chairman Hoffman reported from the Committee on Engrossed and Enrolled Bils, that the bille were truly engrossed. The bills were read for the third time and placed upon their passage. They passed without a dissenting yote. Before Mr. Thuner voted on the.-first of the bills, which provides for temporarily lighting the streets, he said he desired io make a statement. e said: “Mr. President, I have always been op- posed to this bill, but an emergency exists and I can do nothing but vote aye.

HE THINKS THEM NOT HARMFUL, Recommends Legislation for Supervi- sion, but Not Discouragement of the Monopolies. WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.—The Industrial Commission: has received from John D. Rockefeller, president of the Standani | i) Co., replies to questions sent him by the | commission. | The Standard Oll Co., he says, received rebates from railroads prior to 1s, but | received no special advantages for which it did not give full compensation. No profits came from such rebates, as Wwhat- ever advantage was received in this way was deducted from the price of oll. The company, he declares, never re: ‘eived any income from any railroad for olis shipped over its line. The enterprise had been successful, he says, solely because of the cheapness of its commodity. After detailing the growth of the Stand- ard Oil Co. from a partnership - 1867, Mr. ‘er anrwers thig question. Ce are. in your judgments, the chief advantages ‘rom industrial combinations (a), financially to stockholders; (bd), to the pud.ic?”’ The answer is as follows: “All the advantages which co-opera sa Bi — capital.

Without !t every we.] would be shut down, every foreign market would de closed to us. This pipe-line system required other improvements, such as tank cars upon railways, and, finally, the tank Steamer. Capital had to be furni shed for them and corporatione created to own and operate them. ‘Every etep taken was necessary in the business if it was to be properly developed and only through such successive steps and by such industria] combination is Amer ca to-day enabled to utilize the bounty which its land pours forth and to furnish the world with the best and cheapest light ever known, receiving in return therefor from foreign lands nearly $50,000.00 per year, most of which ts distributed in pay- ment of American labor.” Another avestion that Mr. Rockefeller anewers: “What are the chief disadvant- ages or dangers to the public arising from them?"

The Association of Claimants Lays Claim to a Valuable Portion of New York City. OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 11.—The annual elec- tion of the Anneke Jans Assoc.ation, com- ¢ real estate in New York City, through the original grant of King Wiliam of Hol- land, resulted in the sejection of the fol- lowing officers: George Turner, Fairbury, Neb., STesident; W. M. Moore, Junction, lo., V.ce-President; Mary Curry, Topeka, Kan., Secretary, Corresponding Secretary and Treasurer. Anneke Jans is supposed to have been the chasning but romantic daughter of King Wiliam of Holand, who disre,arded the royal efforts to make a match and wedded beneath her high station. She then came to this country. Whether she was William's daughter or not the monarch resented her with an itimense tract of» and along the Hudson, part of it in Al- what is now the heart of New York City. Anneke d.sposed of ail this grant save a faim of near the property which King Willium had given to Trinity Church corporation, Wiiham’'s alleged daughter wedded Rev. Evarardus Bogardus of the Dutch Reformed Church. The Bogarduses of the country, including Capt. Bogardus, the crack shot, claim to have descended from them. Anneke Jans died in Albany. then Beverwyck, in lv:, leaving a last will, which has never been administered in New York State. To cor- rect a frequent error in this connection, it is well to state that the prooverty cia aned és not that upon which Trinity hurch rests, but just adjoining, where the Grand Central Depot and othr big buildings have been erected.

AN OBJECT LESSON In a Restaurant. A physician puts the query: Have you never noticed in any wo restaurant at lunch or dinner time the large number of hearty, vigorous old men at the tables; years; many of them bald and all perhaps gray, but none of them feeble or senile? Perhaps the spectacle is so common ag to have escaped your observation or com- ment, byt nevertheless it is an object les- son which means somethin ng. If you will notice what these hearty old , fellows are eating you will observe that they are not munching bran crackers nor gingerly picking their way os tym a menu card of new-fangled health foods; on the contrary, they seem to prefer a juicy roast of beef, a properly turned ioin of mutton, and even the deadly broiled lobster is not altogether ignor The point of all this is that a vigorous digestion and plenty of wholesome food not upos dieting and an endeavor to live spo bran crackers. There 1s a certain class of food cranks who seem to believe that meat, coffee and many other good things are rank oisons, but these cadaverous, sickly« ooking individuals are a walking cone demnation of their own theories. , The matter in a nutshell is that if the stomach secretes the natural di juices in sufficient quantit some food will be promptly, digested, id ed the stomach does not do so, ; foods cause distress one of two ra Dyspepsia Tabicts oo wil remove all diffic ulty, becouse .

He quotes a fellow office-holder, the Comptroller, whose opinion is dated two Gays ago; and a couple of other office-hold- era, and then calmly announces that ‘“‘the payment received was turned into the Treasury by deposit in the National City +-Bank, it having been the established cus- tom of Treasury officials, under the counse! of their legal advisers, supported by de- cisions of the Gupreme Court, moneys on deposit to the credit of the Treasurer of the United States in designated _ @epositories as money in the Treasury.” Beery one is naturally asking when this “custom” was established; what Secretaries of the Treasury or Treasury officials estab- it, and what decisions of Supreme made it legal. Who were the lega) oe of these mythical Secretaries? .

The correspondence breaks off abruptly. Here as elsewhere there is a continuous suggestion of interruptions by the long-dis- tance telephone. One does not have to read much of this Orreepondence to see how naturally the Na- tiona) City Bank essumed the attitude of a Government bank. For example, the National City Bank on Oct. 30, 1897, requested permission to make deposits of surplus funds at the Treasury through a Washington correspondent, to which the following reply wes sent by Ellis H. Roberta: “Respectfully returned.

The ladies of Washington are going the pace that kills. Mrs. Charlies Emory Smith, wife of the Postmaster-General, and Mrs. Long, wife of the Secretary of the Navy, are on the invalid list. Miss Long collapsed under the strain a few weeks ago and now Miss Wilson, daughter of the Secre- tary of Agricultire, has succumbed. Social life which makes impossible demands upon the health is certainly most unsociable. Instead of a relaxation itis a herd duty. Instead of a pleasure it is a pain. But it isn’t likely that the members of Washington so- a @lety can agree upon reform. Competition for social success is teo fierce. So women will go on in the dreary routine until all but the sturdiest break down and leave the field. Survival of the fittest ly natural sclection seems to be the rule in society as well az in politics and business. Ie it not a misnomer to cali a life regulated by such a rule “society?

If there is any difference between experts as to the effect of river pollution, surely St. Louis is entitled to the doubt. It ill becomes any representative of the city to deny this. The matter is one of life and death, not of dollars merely. Chicago can dispose of her sewage without either polluting her own water supply or ours. It may cost money and trouble, but what is that, placed in the balance against the health and life of the pecple of St. Louis and the other pointes affecte® by the Sewage Canal? It ig the duty of every friend of St. Louis to fight against further water pollution, as long as there is a fighting chance. — i i The Post-Dispatch has endeavored for a long time to bring te official buodiers to a reckoning and we note with grati- the evidence that citizens are taking up the work. — a ae ARTIFICIAL PROLONGATION OF LIFE. . Metchnikoff's statement in the Sunday Post-Dispatch fegarding the artificial lengthening of human life through the of animal scrums is interesting. But it is not to be regret- the efforts of scientists to bring about this result are to be successful. t@ea of being kept alive by repeated injections of fluids at the sacrifice of animal life must be revolting to ly constituted human beings. A similar barbarism is in it as that which induces the savage to eat the organs of animals and of his enemies that he may gain from them. as the world gocs, only a few nabobs could afford to fe by using these costly serums.

But he presents no new facts or arguments. It is especially note- worthy only hecause the facts are at first hand, and not filtered through reports and partisan statements. The Senator does not filnch from the issue. He declares that we must govern the Filipino because they cannot govern themselves. Self-government is for those who are capable of self-government. The Malays of the archipelago cannot satisfy this requirement and will not for a long time. Granting this, Mr. Beveridge has furnished the strongest argument against the imperial policy in the East. A people who govern themselves cannot safely undertake to govern others. A colonial policy based upon force is contrary to the genius of a free government and must retict upon the do- mestic policy. Sooner or later excuses will be found to apply the principle in home politics. Imperialism gréws by what it feeds upon. No eloquence can alter this fact, which is well attested by the experience of more than one people who have lost their liberty by dalliance with militariam. i i A London journal says, in commenting upon American opinion: “The Administration ergans and the financial or- gans are strongly with us, but the latter are beginning to waver because the war isa injuring trade. forgotten how completely the Administration is in the hands of the great financiers and trust companies."’ There are some English publications that do not make mistakes in their descriptions of American ccnditions. eee The allegations of Congressman Mann in reply to Congress- man Bartholdt are silly. Mr. Mann has no case and he is simply driven to such talk. There is not an intelligent in- habitant of the United States who does n know that the discharge of Chicago's enormous sewage into the Illinois and Mississippi is perilous and that justice demands that it shall be stopped. ——> & What would China's “‘illimitable markets” amount to if the European powers were to close the doors on us? They could do this at any time. Without “our share’’ of China, how are we to compe! its “illimitable markets?’ There is really no limit to the imperial.policy. The Philippines are only a way station on the road to expansion. The honor of the American people is not'a matter of parti- san feeling. Every conscientious, thoughtful American real- izes the injustice of the Administration's Philippine policy. The greatest men in the Republican party and the best men in the Democratic organization alike condemn it. _——. >| .

The Treasury surplus is a standing evidence of our bur- densome and vnnnecessary taxation. Does any sane person believe that “heavy taxation should. be continued Jin order that there may be idle money for the convenience! of Wall street gamblers and pet banks? i “The Constitution of the United States,’ says Judge Adams, “does not secure to any one the privilege of defrauding the public.”” It is certainly inconceivable that the framers of the Constitution contemplated anything like the protection of fraud. soe Senator Beveridge bDlasphemously declares that God's hand is in the’ Philippine fnjustice.

Debate in the Senate Over a Resolution Asking the President for Full Information. $ WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.—The. resolution of Senator Pettigrew regarding attempts to open negotiations with the Filipinos was to-day taken up in the Senate. Benator Hoar had offered a similar resolution of broader scope. Mr. to include any information com! ng to the War Department of p.ane of peop.e of the Philippines in arms against the United States. as to the projected uprising !n the city of Manila for the destruction of for- eign property and massacre of residents; also regarding treatment of gigs ob by insurgents. Mr. Lodge refered to the pub- lished reports of the plan to throw dyna- mite bombs during the funeral of Gen. Lawton to create diversion, during which an uprising wads to occur. Hy iis amendment also covered information regarding the antl- imperialistic utterances wno.ch were being disseminated amon the’ insurgents and alleged documents ae ‘ulated among United States soldiers serving in the Philippines last summer, urging them not to re-enlist. Information regarding all these facts Mr. Lodge said shou.d be known. Mr. Rawlins suggested that if the resolu- tion was to be burdened, why not make it include all the preliminary negotiations with the insurgents befure the war be- wan. Mr. Lodge said that was what he was trying to procure, a full and complete Seoount of all occurrences from Jan. 1], Mr. Hoar assented to Mr. Lodge's plan, but aaid he should also like to include the President's instructions to the Peace Commissioners in Paris. But he presumed there would be objection and that he would not press it. But he shouN, however, prose the request for al instructions to the ee commissioners. Mr. Hoar was also desirous that this infurmation shovld be sent in from time to time, not one huge, unwiedly docu- ment. Mr. Pettigrew insisted upon separate ac- tion upon his resolution. He referred fee!- ingly to the manner in which his resolution of Dec. 14 was shelved on the ground that it would be immediately telegraphed to the insurgents, but in reality to prevent the American people from knowing the facts. His present resolution called for specific facts and should be passed, Mr. Pettigrew sa'd: “The resolution of Senator Lodge should read, ‘If not incompatible with the inier- ests of a candidate for re-ejection.’ "’ “The whole conduet of Administration Senators,”” said Mr. Pettigrew. ‘“‘is in line with the policy of conc ealing the news and suppressing the facts.’ Mr. Pettigrew charged that vital parts had been suppressed in Otis’ report; that news of the Sulu treaty had been mangled ‘and suppressed until the Ohio election and that Gen. Otis had altered the President's proclamation before he issued it. Otis had defrauded the Filipinos and the Administration and had humbugged the American people. During his remarka Mr. Pettigrew referred to the insurgent gov- ment as ‘‘A sister republic.’’ Mr. Pettigrew said he refused to leave to the President's discretion the question of answering his interrogatories. An ad- ministration that would suppress the truth from the public would not hesitate to con- ceal facts from the Senate. The policy of the Administration, he said, had bee n, in his opinion, instigated by Eng! and. He charged that the United States com- menced the war first by the proclamation by the President in December, 1898. and afterward by firing the firet shot and killing the first man. er. said Mr. Petti- were a Filipino,” grew, “I would firht until I was gray against this policy of criminal aggression.’ EMINENT CHEMISTS ARE HERE They Will Testify in the Pure Food Proceedings of the State Against Whitney Lawton. An action to test the pure food law was before Judge Clark in the Court of Crim- inal Correction Thursday when the case of the State against Whitney Lawton wag called. The pure food law was passed at the last session of the Legislature, and makes it a misdemeanor to manufacture. sell or offer for saie any article, com- — or preparation-for the purpose of veing used or which is .ntended to be used in the preparation of food In which article, | compound or preparation there is any ar- senic, calomel, bismuth, ammonia oer | abuse.” Lawton isa defended by the firm of Sed- ‘den & Blair. Leading chemists from well- known universities have been summoned here to testify in the case, Chief is Dr. Austin Flint of New York, Pres.- dent McMurile of thé American Chemical Society, Prof. W. Mallet, professor of chemistry in the University of Virginia; Prof. Prescott and Prof, Vaughan of the University of Michigan and Prof, Kerser of Washington University. The case promises to be bitterly fought, and the sec‘entific language of the learned men will be diffic th for the usual crowd of spectatora w -throng the Court of Criminal Correcti to comprehend. 5 “el ‘ - Jaf Spee pa ae F — L* he es se. * ke ‘ wo oS See sled Pb sd Prt. oe Be ARM 2, 2) te) | es i hie ot Wwe a¥ x ' : ‘eee , aa ye i Ii. ee 7 \ ' - ~~ ae pal. =a z e i ie) rae pr, in & Ls wa cs bata | ‘ es — ar . . ¢ J . tee a oF i ee = tee eg FT > _ - Ct, * 7 REMUS ON BROADWAY.

His acting is natural, free from stage affectations and altogether satisfy- ing. He ts earnest and modest and seem- ingly conseientions {n his endeavors. His present vehicle {1s not the best in the world: perhaps his finest work was in the role of Rodolph in ‘Zenda,’ but that he can make so much out of this play speaks well for his ability. It is to be hoped that next season some enterprising manager Will see the good that fs in Mr. Gould and will give him a fit play and the op- portunity that {sa seemingly all he needs to make a name for himself. And, it 1s gratifying to add, his endeav- ors this week have not passed unnoticed. Hie has attracted a high class of play-g0- ers to the Grand and has pleased all who have seen him. The play really has in- terest In that !t deals, as do all too few, with the most stirring period of American history, the Revolutionary days, and in his character of the Amertean hero, Gould gives us a characterization compar- atively new, vet one with many possihill- ties for good effects, if incorporated in a more fetching play. It will be well to keep your eye on this Mr. Gould: it won't be long, perhapa, till you are paying $1.50, gladly, to see him. “THE GIRL FROM MAXDATs.” A painted woman walked a city street And leered at every man she chanced to meet.
