It was then dark and he had means of ascvertuining the height of embankment over which he had fallen. He only knew that he was hanging in | midair. He made several ineffectual at- | tempts to raise his body to a level with his | heels, but finally decidod to wait patiently for the coming of day and aid. When dawn came it revealed to him the bottom of the abyss far below. But the cold had numbed his body and the rush of blood to his head had rendered him well- nigh unconscious. He was iniffcrent to his surroundings and he only sighed hopelessly as he gazed downward The cliff down which he was swinging towers over the quarry of the H. Rueck- ing Construction Co. That fact saved Johnson's life, for it brought workmen to & epot that, if it were mot. used for quar- ry purposes, would be lonely and unfre- quented. Hermann Spileckermann was one of the first laborers to reach the quarry. He went @bout his work as‘usual, and accidentally discovered Johnson hanging directly abage him. The body was so high in the air that he thought it was a dummy hung there by some person anxious to play a joke on the employes of the quarry. He chuckled to himself because he had not been fooled by it. But he dropped his pick and turned pale as he saw the body moye and the long arms sweep along the side of the cliff as if grasping for some- thing. He called a fellow workman and Pointed to the swaying body. “What is that?’ he asked. His companion gave a cry of alarm, and exclaiming that it was a man, ran to the quarry ofltice and informed Mr. Ruecking, who telephoned for the fire department. The response was quick, and a ladder Was extended from the bottom of the Quarry to where Johnson hung. A fireman fastily ascended it and placed aé= rope @round the unfortunate man’s waist. John- €on was the nhauled to ehe top of the cliff. He was still conscious, although his head Was swollen to twice its normal -:ize by the accumulation of blood there. He collapsed completely after he realized he was safe. He was caryiel to the South Side Dispensary, where he was examined by Dr. Webster. ‘It was learned that his only injury cansisted of a sprained Knee and a serious nervous shock. He was sent to the City Hospital, where he wus held as a prisoner because an of- ficer thought he could not give a satisfac- tory reason for being in a part of town where he had ne'ther business nay friends The hospital prysictans said he would be well in a few days. Johnson is a negro and lives at 1422 Clark avenue, He cleoims that he worked at Union | Station until Wednesday, when he went in | . arch of other work. After he was taken tw the City Hospital. he talked to the Post- | Dispatch about his experience. He does not drirk and claims that he ts | not subject to fainting spells. He has no recollection of the events of Wednesday. niwht leading up to the aecident. “T don’t know how I came to be down | on Osage street.”’ he said. “I don’t know | anybody down there and I had no business that would take me down in that part of the city.

No doubt you have read Mark Twain’s story of “‘Pudd’nhead Wilson.’ That -being the case, you know why ‘‘The Thumbs" was organized, and you know that each mem- ber signs his name by making the mark of his right thumb in the customary place for a signature. That is what Puddn’'head Wilson called “a natal autograph,’ and it is one which ean never be counterfeited, In the next Sunday Post-Dispatch you will find the thumb marks of several prominent St. Loutsans.

All this talk about the servant girl being the mistress of the house is not mere talk. You remember the story of the iceman, It is like this: Iceman (to servant): Is the mistress !n? Servant (scornfully): Mistress! I’m the mistress! If you mean the lady of the house, she’s up-stairs asleep. It is true that Bridget sometimes takes on autocratic airs, but there is every reason why she should do so, according to her own peculiar methods of reasoning.

PETITIONED FOR ANOTHER PRIEST, ——, — A Chureh Controversy on. at Mascoutah, Ill. IREV. PIEKE’S REMOVAL ASKED. PARISHIONERS LEFT CHURCH DURING MASS LAST SUNDAY, Gray-Haired Worshipper Shook His Fist at the Robed Priest and Was Followed Out by Friends, —- A petition for the removal of Rev. Anton Pieke as priest of the Catholic Church of the Holy Childhood of Jesus at Mascoutah, lll., was filed with Bishop John J. Janssen at Belleville Wednesday afternoon. The filing of the petition resulted from a scene in the church at early mass last Sun- day. The trouble in the church resembles in many respects the famous St. Patrick's parish controversy in East St. Louis. Members of the congregation are arrayed against their priest, Rev. Anton Pieke. Many families have withdrawn from the church. Unless the pastor is changed, it is said many more will do so. The temper of the people is such that should the bishop refuse to acede to their wishes, it is feared there may be overt acts such as led to the excommunication of St. Patrick’s parishioners. In the event of an adverse decision by the bishop it is said that the case will be carried up to the apostolic delegate at Washington. The dissentions between priest and people resulted in a scene in the church last Sun- day without precedent in the church and the like of which never occurred even dur- ing the excitement of the strife in Kast St. Lauis. Rv. Pieke was upbraided while he stood at the altar saying mass by one of the leading tiembers of the congregation, who Shook his fist at the robea priest. Others joined in the upbraiding and_ fifteen = or twenty persons of both sexes left the edi- fice amid great excitement. The trouble which culminated in the scene of Sunday and the presentation of the pe- tition has been brewing for nearly five years. Five years ago Father Vieke® went on a European trip. During his absence the congregation was served by another priest, lie. became very popular and it is eaid that Father Pieke on his return manifested displeasure on aceount of the favor which his substitute had won, This led to un- pleasant feelings between the priest and some of the families, particularily that of R.

Hillegas, Author of “Oom Paul’s Peo- ple’? Who Was Sent to Pretoria by World and Post-Dis- patch. The New York World and St. Louis Post-Dispatch commissioned Howard C. Hillegas, whose recent book on “Oom Paul's People,” has been so favorably re- ceived, to interview President Kruger, that his side of the war might be pre- sentted to the American public without bias and without filtering through the hands of Englishmen, however impar- tial. Mr. Hillegas arrived at Pretoria about the first of February, went to the front for several days and returned to secure the interview with President Kruger, here printed. This interview was very courteously Assistant Secretary of the Interior Web- ster Davis of St. Louis, who arrived in New York Tuesday, from whence it was telegxaphed to the Post-Dispatch. In this interview the following points are em- phasized: 1. Kruger does not now look for the aid of any nation. 2. On the eve of the opening of hostil- ities he did expect that President Mc- Kinley would offer to act as arbitrator. 3. He says to Americans: “Even as your forefathers fought against great odds in the Revolutionary War, so are we God was with your people so He is with us.” PRETORIA, Capital of the Transvaal; Feb. 7.—I President Kruger with the greatest courtesy, upon announcing that I had been commis- sioned by the New York World and St. struggling, and even as was received by by | were | He | the | was} Louis Post-Dispatch to get from his own ‘lips an expression of his views on the The Bishop request- | their charges to writiis | war, its cause and probable result. Secre- tary of State Reitz was present at the interview, President Kruger does not seem to have aged much in the past five years, and stands the strain of the war and its responsibilities without outward sign of | breaking down. “My burghers are fighting bravely,” | he said, with much earnestness, “and they will continue to do so until Great Britain asks for peace or withdraws her soldiers. We cannot expect to conquer several hundred thousand men in a day, but my burghers are going ahead rapid- ly, as you can see by looking at the place where we keep our prisoners. “Even as your forefathers fought against great odds in the Revolutionary War, so are we struggling, and even as God was with your people so is he with us. We have fought with England be- fore and we defeated her sokhers, and we will be victorious again.” “I sent a message to your papers (the World and Post-Dispatch) on the eve of this war, saying that the losses in the war ‘would stagger humanity.’ The Brit- ish laughed at me, and said it would only take a month to conquer us. Did those Spion Kop and those hun- dreds were killed in other battles please the British? Are they laughing now?

Ev- ery home in South Africa has been des- olated, and the war has only begun. Wait until the war is ended, and those who will suffer on account of it will be numbered by the hundreds of thousands. “Did Chamberlain and Milner and the capitalists who were back of them think of those things when they drove us to the wall? Are the tears of widows and orphans to pay for the gold fields? “Tell the Americans through great newspapers that I appreciate their expressions of sympathy, and that | will inform my burghers of it. I am greatly pleased to hear that committees have been formed to raise funds for our Red Cross. We need medicines and supplies for the wounded—not so much for our own wounded, but for the many poor British soldiers who come into our hands. “ItwMakes my heart bleed to see them suffer, but we cannot help them as much should like to do, because the your as we | British authorities will not let us bring medicines or supplies for our local Red Cross through Delagoa Bay.” Mr. Kruger explained at length the efforts which the British authorities made to seal up Delagoa Bay and then told of the message he sent to Lord Salis- bury concerning it. He said he refused 'to have any more correspondence with Mr. Chamberlain, but frequently cabled to Lord Salisbury. In one cablegram he asked Lord Salisbury to allow food- stuffs to enter through Delagoa Bay or they would be compelled to feed the 3000 British prisoners in Pretoria on maize porridge. Lord Salisbury did not reply, but a message signed “Chamberlain” explained that the embargo on foodstuffs:had been raised three days before. Mrs Kruger laughed heartily when told that the Chamberlain message was telegraphed back to Lord Salisbury with the query “Is this true?” “We have not heard from Chamber- lain since,” said Mr. Kruger, and laughed for fully half a minute. Secretary Reitz then told of a second series of communications between the | President and Lord Salisbury concerning the prisoners who were taken by the British at Douglass, Cape Colony, and who, although they became citizens of the Orange Free State, are being tried in Cape Town for high treason. The President sent a cablegram directly to Lord Salisbury demanding that the Douglass prisoners be treated only as prisoners of war and not as treasonable subjects of Her Majesty, and stated that if they were executed reprisals would be made. Lord Salisbury replied that if one of the Pretoria prisoners were injured both President Steyn and Presid~ “ruger oy ” would be hanged at the conclusion of the war. The President thought that was harsh language to use, and according to Mr. Reitz’s statement, replied in effect: “Go ahead with your hanging, but re- member that your son, Lord Edward Ce- cil, is in Mafeking.” Mr. Kruger has no reply to this mes- sage. President Kruger said that the Boers looked for no assistance from any nation, He declared that the Boers would not de- stroy the mines in any event. He said that before the war he believed that the United States would offer to act as arbi~ trator of the differences between the twe . countries, and that he was perfectly con- tent to accept the decision that would have been made, but Great Britain re- fused to arbitrate. ‘ HOWARD C HILLEGAS, NOW THERE IS TALK OF A DUEL Quarrel Between Two Foreigners Grow~ ing Out of an Incident at a Ball. Special to the Post-Dispatch, : WASHINGTON, March 29.—The mock duel that occurred at the German Embas- sy ball last wé@ek, in which two of the embassy'’s staff fought with peacock feath; ers for the honor of dancing with Miss Hegeman, niece of Senator Depew, was & small matter compared with a dispute which eeemed to bid fair to lead to a real duel between one of the tithed German s@c- retaries and a member of a European legation. ; The titled German, while arranging the ballroom for the cotillion, spoke in @ rather abrupt way to the wife of the offi- cial referred to and requested her to leave room for the dancers.

When askcd where she obtained the lek of Morey’s hair which was in the locket around her neck she refu to answer. She an- swered almost all questions put to her, but gave no information without being asked direct. She said Morey’s treatment of her had always been very gentlemanly, and that their relationa were not of an immoral nature in any respect. At first their talk when alone had been of friendship, and she had promised to be a friend to him. Their conversation had finally drifted to talk of love and their feelings for each other had drifted in the same direction. She told of being in his room at his residence while his wife was out of the city. Also of his coming to see her while she was in the country on a vacation. Several times during the ordeal the de- fendant seemed to be on the point of faint- ing, but only omee did she actually break down and then for possibly a minute and a half, in which she buried her face in her handkerchief and both hands, and sobbed convulsively. The jurors not only listened, but carefully regarded every move @nd circumstance. With a few exceptions the questions were answered with reasonable promptness. When the attorneys finally dismissed the witness with ‘That's all,” she seemed to undergo a semi-collapse, and made no ef- fort to leave the stand until Judge Batty stepped to her side and supported her back ta her seat. There she gave way to a fit of weeping, and sat during the remaining three hours of the session with her face covered with her handkerchief, and partia!- ly supported by her sister. anvthing that | smacked 'when she was asked where she secured the me i sne Onlv once was there was of the theatrical, and that ' lock of Morey’s hair that was in the locket. called the County Attorney Oy name j and plaintively protested that she could not answer that “ x Af. ; P 2 { Se r . iw ae * ERP E RAISE Cid SS Coat eto. ics CRN Ss OE OG aia “sy > MISS VIOLA HORLOCKER.

ST, LOUIS WORK, ‘He Tells of His Theories and Methods. CHARLES “REV. STELZLE. ‘HAS CHARGE OF THE MENARD . STREET MISSION. -His Success in Other Cities Caused Him to Be Called to St. Louis, Where He Has Planned Many Things for Good. pert from the field of work in New York and Chicago, has assumed com- plete control of the Menard Street Mission this city and will continue permanently as its pastor. Mn. Stelzle successfully passed the examination prescribed by tho St. Louis Presbytery and was ordained a min- ister of the faith Thursday night before the congregation over which he presides, He is young, as strong of purpose as he is of physique, and is thus doubly prepared to battle with the elements of sin he finds in his chosen field. It does not take one long in ordinary conversation to become aware that the young teacher has peculiar, albeit pretty eyes. It is these eyes that serve to emphasize the man’s singular con- centration of all facultics to an end. His earnestness is intense, and when led to talk of his work the blue eye secnis to become gray, burning brightly with the fire of en- thusiasm. Mr. Stelzle is forceful without becoming roused to excessive animation. He talks quietly and rests quietly as he speaks, but the words go as swiftly to their maik as if flung from the point’ of an ex- cited finger. With all this earnestness there is no trace of the fanatic about Mr. Stelzle, and his garb does not differ from that of the or- Ginary business man, even to the colored Shirt and tie. Twelve years ago he was a machinist in the employ of a New York printing press manufacturer. Through his church he became interested in mission work, and while working successfully con- ducted a small mission in Lrooklyn. His employers aliowed him two afternoons week to attend to this work. The mission grew and with it Mr. Stelizle’s love for the work and he resigned from the factory to enter the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago. While he studied he worked in the slums | of the big city and thus become well: equipped for the duties to which he was _assigned. He went to Minneavolis and or- ganized an institutional churen there and also worked in the slums. It was the Suc- cess of his efforts in that city that at- tracted the attention of local ministers and he was asked to come to St. Louls. A New York offer was under consideration at the same time and was accepted before the detail of the St. Louls proposition were fuily explained. Mr. Stelzle went to Goth- am’s famous,.Hast Side, organized a church and Spent nearly two years at hard work in that field. Then Dr. W. F. Sneed of the Washington and Compton avenues Presby- terijan church again asked ‘him to this city, and it was decided that he should have full control of the Menard Street Mission, the cldest and most largely attended mission in St. Louts. He is assited in his work by Mrs. Stelzla, a graduate of the musical department of the Moody ‘Training School. She has charge of the choirs and musical programmes of Menard Street Mission. He tells of his theories and methods in the following state- ment: R'v CHARLES STELZLE, slum ex- ~ — CL ee tt tt ta By Rev. Charles Slelzle. T is true that I have had flattering suc- cess in slum work in New YorX, Chi-/ children, make the psalm less appealing to >» heart or less pleasing to the Almighty? cago and Minneapolis, but I came to St. Louls on a different errand and unless 1 have more time at my disposal than at present shall do little if any ‘‘slumming’”’ here. Tle term slums is often misappiled, and it is a common error to term mission work slum work, while in fact there is a wide Gistincticn. Mission work is my duty here, slum work I have done in other cities. The great public has been lezd to believe that missions established in neighborhoods thickly populated with the poorer classes ere there to purify the slums. The people of the slums are those who are either past redemption or are so low in gin and shame that the most optimistic worker has little hope of lifting them from their moral filth, They comprise the very lowest strata of human society. Born, reared and steeped in sin, they know noth- ing but iniquity and fight against the ac- ceptance of anything that tends to turn their lives from self-abasement and self- indulgence Drunkards, thieves, murderers, men, women, “and, I am sorry to add, children who know nothing higher, who want noth- ing more elevating than that which the laws of God and intelligent society have marked with abhorrence. I do not say that it Is impossible to save @ soul in the slums, thousands have been saved and thousands more are being saved éaily by the unselfish, self-sacrificing work of Christian men and women. It !s the most disheartening of all the tasks of the church. Surrounded by all that is vile and ungodly if the soul that accepts the first seed of the truth be not transplanted the weeds of iniquity soon choke the growth and it dies. It is hard, oftentimes impossible to beat back these evil influences, to clear enough ground, as it were, for a crop of godliness. Persistent effort and unflinching tenacity, with God’s help, can only accomplish good ‘in “the slums.,"’ Now what is a mission? It is the es- tablished church in communities whose In- ‘ habitants earn mere pittances, where some lives are passed in honest poverty, ’ but where the Word of God ts respected, is wanted and is listened to with the simplest reverence the world knows. The work of the mission is to go into these districts and oarry Christianity that it may make the worldly burden lighter and warm with comfort the homes of ignorance and de- spair. The mission has its field and the worker in the slums his field, as the s0- called fashionable clergyman has his. My work has been assigned me by my con- science and I shall devote my life to it, as ready to help those in the gutter as to in- struct those of my own flock. _-—s @peaking of the fashionable minister me say thet many unkind, unjustifiable things are eaid in certain oo of see oR Spreads, Mattresses —Small lots and Pillows closed out cheap Friday— 75¢c pure Feather Pillows, three pounds weight, no mixture, 40 CeNtS each $1.35 Feather Pillows,three pounds weight, live, clean feathers, d Frade «eee e---2O C@NtSee $1.75 real Marseilles Spreads, 78x 89 inches, $4.18 Pe Err ee $4.50 Cotton Combination Mat- tresses, 55 pounds’ weight, splendidly made and $2. 89 Heweretble .. ceo déne cee wear, 25 Dozen Extra Quality Men’s Teck Scarfs, Actually same quality silk asin 50c Ties—good, new spring col- orings—this lot Friday at..cc cece 19 cents White Goods— Werth 15 —40-inch White Lawn, 1 to 10 yard lengths; somein soft- finish for ladies’ and children’s Under- some on stiff finish for Aprons, Wrap- pers, Dresses.. to 30c yard 10 cents vera ig emnant Day TO-MORROW, FRIDAY ones. dl Udills Friday a eeeeee Nail and Hair Brushes Cheap Friday.

That is the work of the fashionable church, and did it not do its duty the thousand missions that. yearly spring up where vice is supposed to control and live and thrive there in the seeming filth would be impossible. A worker among the poorer class has said the people wanted doctors, not preachers, hospitals, not churches. I class him as an extremist. There are those that see that the people need nothing but spiritual at tendance. They are extremists on the other medium, which after all can do the greatest good. If the body is ill, I try to comfort it. While I beHeve firmly that if there were more morality there would be less sickness | I also realize the futility of trying to spread the seeds of religion in a soul that is held by a pain-racked body. Morality will save a great many pains, but not all, and those that will come must be driven away and precaution taken that they do not return again. Acting on this idea, there has been estab- lished at the Menard Street Mission a free dispensary that is open ta all sorts and conditions of men. Christians and unbe- lievers are treated alike. The effect is soon felt in the church and the church feels that it has benefitted humanity. The institutional church is the surest, safest and most attractive way of converting souis to God. It hes proven efficacious in th® slums. It is practically the only way the inhabitants of the latter can be reached. The institutional church 1s a church of institutions, clubs, singing societies, drum corps, baths, gymnasium, reading rooms, dispensaries, anything and everything that benefits humanity. Our mission, at Menard and Julia streets, the largest in St. Louts, was established 25 years ago. The Sunday-school of 1600 has long been under the direction of W. H. Markham, ably assisted by City Assessor Frederick. The attendance is made up of persons living principally .east of BPight- eenth street to the mver and south of The mission was directed by Endeavor prior to my coming. I am its first regular pastor. I found a large and appreciative congregation, one that will work, and is performing great things. I begen at once on the institutional plan. We now have a boys’ club of ® members. It is a self-government organization, I be- lieve the only one of its kind in St. Louis. The boys elect their own officers and con- duct all their business with but lLttile prompting from older heads, _ Khe girls’ organization of @ mempers le ‘ * end. It is my constant effort to strike the | | logne. called the Carol Club and is instructed by Mrs. Stelzle in song and sacred musian We have also a literary society and a drum corps. There are three choirs under Mrs. Selzle’s direction, and on the first Sunday mght in each mecnth we have a song ser- vice, led by a choir of 100 voices. With the exception of a 10-minute talk the entire service is given over to song. Every Friday night I give free stereopticon views with stories. Next week I shall tell the story of Ben Hur, with many illustrations. Then the young people are often given practical talks by business men. Mr. W. M. Sloan, superintendent of the Hamilton. Brown Shoe Factory, gave recently an in- teresting talk on what constitutes a guod mechanic. ‘There will be other lectures during the apring which have not yet been arranged. The Penny Savings Bank I con- ‘sider one of the most important depart- n.enta, The children deposit small savings and a stamp representing the amount de- posited is pasted in their bank book. Many dollars are saved in this way. The dispensary is but two weeks old. It is open at the mission on Monday from 4p. m. to 6 p. m. and on Thursdays from 6:30 p. m to 7:30 pm In this connection we run a small apothecary and a uniform rate of 10 cents is charged for filling each pre- | scription The patient is given enough medi- cine to last until the next dispensary day. Physicians, interested in our work, con- tribute their services. We hope eoon to establish a @4rill club, gymnasium, baths and many other smaller things that will help the work, The whole plan is simple. It keeps the members of the congregation busy without taking their thoughts from the main ob- ject—the salvation of their souls. UNITED STATES CONSUL DEAD. Col. John A.

The man’s faultless Latin, his sing-song chant, his weird appearance and indiffer- ence to pain recalled the flagellants, It seemed a swene from the middle ages. when classic knowledge and tattered rags were aftener found together than now. John McGutre, the man called himself. but he saitd he remembered the tima when he was Brother <Austine, chorister at a monastery near Dubuque, Io. Now he picks rags from the street and ts contented. He was prospecting tn the rear of Bridge & Beach's factory Wednesday. He spled an old cloth covered safa—cholce find from a rag-picker’s standpoint. The cover was ripped and feathers flew about. A man came out of the factory and tn the fight the rag-picker’s @walp was cut with a wag- on spoke.

Ever Since the “Yellow War’ the Czar’s Government Has Been Steadily Moving to Absorb the Peninsula. 5 *" LONDON, March 29.—A dispatch from Kobe, Japan, announces that Russia has @emanded leave to land troops near Ma- ganpho. Corea, the dispatch says, wants mo outside interference. Recent dispatches from Japan indicate that that government is watching Russia, and will protest against any further en- croachments in Corea. A significant movement of the Japanese fleet is announced. Two battleships, three cruisers, a coast defense vessel and two gunbacta have moved from Yokosuka to ‘Kure, the great naval and military head- quarters at the western end of the inland gea, 12 hours’ eall from Corea. The war spirit is said to be strong in Japan on account of the Czar’s secret al- tempt to gain imfluenoe in Corea in vivia- of the treaty. on t is little wonder that Russia's aggres- ve movement in Corea rouses Japan apan got practically pothing out of wher victary over China in the “yellow war’ a ‘few years ago.

Any movement of Russia _ in ‘orea will affect Great Britain as vitally as would the long-threatened invasion of India by the Czar’s legions. It is prob- wble that this step will lead to a protest from the London government. Corea is a peninsular kingdom on the east coast of Asia, bounded on the east by the Japan Sea, south bv the Straits of (‘orea, which divide it from the Japanece ieland of Kiou-Siou, west by the Yellow Sea, which separates it from China, and on the north by Manchuria. Its extreme length is 630 miles, and its width varies from 10 to 200 miles. Its area is $0,000 square miles, and its population is various- ly estimated at from 7,000,000.to 18,000,0uU. BISHOP POTTER'S REPORT. | Severe Criticism of the Religious Ord- ers in the Philippines.

She has stainped her ecclesi- ustical traditions—narrow, into.erant and often corrupting—wherever she has gone, and she has gone almost everywhere among all the various islands of the urchipelago, great and sma!'. Worst of all, her rejigious orders, except perhaps the Jesuits, have robbed the Sonbla. wrung from them their lands and taxed the administration of the Sacraments and ordinances of religion with a scale of exactions and impositions at once ecandalous and outrageous. “If we are to retain these islande, and the urdersigned are constrained to own, lNow- ever they may differ from any of their ‘as- eoclates as to the wisdom of originally en- tering upon them, that no other course seems for the present open to the United States, these wrongs and the righting of them lie at the foundation of the whole Philippine problem.

The de- velopments concerning the Carnegie Com- pany are received with general satisfaction in the trade as guaranteeing the continued strength of the styongest producer and averting division that could only cause Weakness. The market changes of the week have not been so noteworthy as the corporate move- The campaign for lower prices for iron and steei products has given rise to some bearish reports, first published at York and freely wired across the cointry. Intimattons that concessions were made in important lines, in which uotations have been practically unchanged vy months—steel biilets, rails and structu- to create buyers have March, a& manner calculated Without question, influenced by these reports. without doubt, has been disappointing to in the trade who expected it to change the monotony of months of absten- tion from the market. But no generai accurately fits the situation at lated in been Statement the present moment. The $0 basis for Bessemer steel Dillets in the Central West is unshaken. Bessemer iron also is firm and the price for the sec- ond half, iikely to be fixed In the near fuiure, is expected to be $4 at valley fur- naces. Pilates are an important factor in current demand and there is an excellent outlook for tuture business. The bar iron has not changed in the Central West. In the Kast cutting has continucd and one effect is the action of the bolt and nut manufacturers in reducing their prices. Turning to the foundry end of the trade, the situaticn as to prices and as tw the attitude of buyers is considerabiy mixed. There is more competition gin maliea ice castings. Conditions abroad at this junct- ure are favorable to the maintenance of prices. Prices In Great Britain and Germany tended upward, with an increas- ing provability that iron from this side will be needed in the near future. CONDITIONS AT LA GLORIA.

About the time the Arburkles opened their frmcpend £ Claus Doscher opened an independ- ent refinery in Brooklyn. Doscher also went into the business to fight ‘“‘the trust,’’ and he and the Arbuckles have rather worked together. It was regarded as significant that, although he had plenty of time to do so, Mr. Doscher gave no indication that hi intended ta follow Mr. Arbuckle’s lead as he had done heretofore. In commenting on this fact a sugar man said: “It may be well to watch Dos you're watching the rest. of the magnates. While he does not meet this cut. there's a reason for it other than a mere disinclina- tion ta lose money, and it’s just possibie that Mr. Havemeyer may know why Dwsch- er has not followed Arbuckle.’’ An expert in the sugar trade made some calculations, a short time ago, to determine whether the American Sugar Refining Com- pany was making or losing money,and after ciphering some time he gave out the fol- lowing figures, basing his calculations on 312 working days in a ye Loss on business per 4d: Dividend on preferred sto A per day.

March 29.—John Arbuckle, who roasts coffee to make money and re- fines sugar to make trouble for Henry O. Havemeyer, has created a sensation by re- aucing the price on refined sugar 5 cents the 100 pounds, in spite of the fact that on Tuesday the price of raw sugar advanced to 4% cents a pound, paid by Nash, Spauld- ‘ing & Co., at Boston, This is the first time in the history of the sugar trade that any refiner ever lowered the price of refined 6ugar on a rising market for raw sugar, and everybody in Wall street wondered what on earth Mr. Arbuckle did it for. He would not tell, and everybody is gtill won- , dering, ; Perhana nobody was more surprised at the announcement than Henry O. Huvemeyer, who has been trying to make things Un- pleasant for Mr. Arbuckle by selling roasted coffee in competition with him. He refused to meet the cut. A man who ‘has spent ‘his life in the trade told a reporter that a further rise in the price of raw sugar might be cxpevied any ‘day and then, to use his own language: “The Lord knows where we'll be or what will happen. When the next advance in raw is reported, it would be just like John Arbuckle to give the price of refined anoth- er kick.’’ “But the more he sells on these terms, the worse he'll be off,’’ suggested the re- porter. ‘‘How long can he stand ‘{t? “Young man, don’t you lose any sleep worrying about how long John Arbuckle can stand it. He'll take care of himself, just as Henry Havemeyer will. Havemeyer says to-day be won't meet Arbuckle’s price. e he won't, but keep your eye on him.

No, I did not talk on the way over, and if I was quoted any- where it is not« true.’’ “Tyid you see any fighting?’’ Mr. Davis was asked. ‘Saw plenty of it,’’ Mr. Davis answered. “IT saw fighting by the Boers as well as by the British.

The Boers are thoroughly good in mind and body. They beileve in living peaceable, upright, honest lives. The Loer soldiers are well drilied and courageous. They iook upon religious services as an important ac- cessory to warfate. “IT believe the Boers will be able to main- tain the struggle for a considerable time to come.’’ “What do you think of President Kru- ger ?’’ “He is a remarkable man, a most re- markable man—in fact, one of the most wonderful men in the world. I had ampie opportunity to thoroughly inspect his coun- try while traveling over it for two weeks.’ While Mr. Davis kept his sympathies and sentiments behind official reserve, it was plain to see that his feelings are with the Boers. ‘Il will tell you something. There are lots of British and Boer soldiers in South Africa Just now, but it seemed to me that if they had been lined up together they would not have been a match for the vast and ever-growing army of camera fiends. They are everywhere—at the front, on the lines, in the trees, on the boats—and not afraid of anything. I suppose that if I was snap- shotted once I was a thousand times. Cam- eras look at one from every point and seem to say: “The war may be in it, but it is not in it with me. Walk on now and don’t talk back, for I am a camera and I will make you look ugly.’ : “It almost made me wish @ had been educated for the camera business.”’ Mr. Frank Lange, a tobacco merchant of New York, who resides at No. 128 West One Hundred and Pighteenth street, and who also was a passenger on the Aller, talked rather freely of Mr. Davis’ impres- sions as he had gathered them on the voy- age from Genoa, “I found him to be pro-Boer ail over,’’ said Mr. Lange. ‘‘He said to me that the Boers were in the right in this war,. but that they could hardiy be expecied with a force less than 40,000 men to check a Brit- ish army of nearly 300,000. I exvressed sur- prise at his estimate of the numerical strength of the Boers. and he egald his fig- pres were right and that the Boer forces had been greatly overestimatek They never had more than 800 or 6000 men in any one engagement, and more often than not, Builer and Roberts with their vast forces were confronted by a Boer con- tingent of less than 400. Mr. Davis cited several pathetic instances where he. had seen father, son and grandson fiethting side by side, with the women of che family loading their rifles. He told me that in his opinion it would he a shame to permit this war to continue.” The Assistant Secretary of the Interior brought back with him many relics of the war in addition to photographic views of battle scenes. His baggage. consisting of nine pieces and any number of bolos and other unique weapons used by the South African savages, was passéd by the cus- toms officers as a courtesy. ws well as the right of a Government official.

Joy of the Eleventh District is in St. Louts for the purpose of conferring with the members of the local World’s Fair Committees. While he is here he will probably pay some at- tention to his political fences, with a view to having them ina state of repair when the contest comes for the nomination. But Mr. Joy says his chief object in com- ing to St. Louis at this time is to push along the fair movement. He has con- ferred with W. H. Thompson and former Gov. D. R. Francis. Mr. Joy’s position as the only Missouri! Congressman on the Special Committee of the House, which has charge of the World's Fair bill, makes him especially prominent in the movement. Mr. Joy is a lavish en- tertainer and since the Fair ‘bill was in- troduced he has been giving dinners every Sunday to newspaper men and members ot Congress. He says he will Keep this up during the resnainder of the session. DiIs- cussing the desired legislation, Mr. Joy said: Bie “We are not taking the possibility of fall- ure into account.

Contests in Thirteen Wards, but They Do Not Involve Any Principle of Municipal Government. he Republican primary to elect dele- @atées to the State Conventions and a new dity committee will be held Friday afiter- fioon. The polls will open at 1 o’clock and Wil close at 8 o’clock. Only those Repub- Veans who are registered are entitled to} vote. %* There are contests in 13 wards, but in -@any cases these contests are between rival G@spirants for supremacy and do not in- volveé any principle. In a few of the wards the issue is squarely drawn between the administration and its enemies, and in these the fight has been bitter. This tssue is clos¢ly drawn in the Twen- ty-second Ward, where Charles R. Graves. Sécretary of the Council, boldly filed his delegation with the caption, *‘Anti-Ziegen- hein.” Mr. Filley lives in this ward, and @ithough he has taken no active part in the fight, his counsel and advice have been at the dispocal of the opposition. With euch a caption over the delegation the fight could not be other than ‘bitterly partisan between the friends of the ad- Ministration and its enemies. Nathan frank and H. C. Grenner, the internal rev- €nue collector, are leading the administra- tion forces. The Twenty-second Ward was particular. ripe for a revolt because the cit.zens have ome very much disgusted over their inability to rouse the Saministration to the neéd for good streets. Unable to do mything through the City Hall, the citizens ormed an association for the improve- ment of the streets, and since then they ve accomplished something in this direc- Pin reality the men who are on the ad- inistration delegation have no love for the Mayor, and fearing the effect of Mr. aves’ bold campaign, they have been giv- ing {t out quietly that they are not friend- ly to Ziegenhein. But they have never made Public announcement to this effect. If the predictions that “Indians” are to be used in many of the lower wards come true the primary will be an exciting one. All sorts of stories have been told of the arrangements that have been made by the aders in many of these wards for the use of Democratic “Indians.” REPUBLICAN FIGHT IN FIFTH. How “Snake” Kenny Secured the Ser- vices of a Needed Man. In no ward tn the city is the fight be- tween the Republican factions more bitter than in the Fifth, the political destinies of which have been for several years in the hands of Chris Schawacker, the cen- tral committeeman. The fight is chiefly between Schawacker and Joseph L. Schuler, and the Schuler crowd is already charging that Schawacke r ig preparing to use ‘Democratic “Indians” to defeat them. It appears that one of Schawacker’s chief lieutenants is “Snake” Kenny, and, @ccording to the Schuler people, the com- bination succeeded in keeping one of their follogers out of the Workhouse until after the primary ‘Friday. The man who thus enjoys freedom be- cause he possesses a political value to Schawacker is John Flynn. Those who know him say he has always been a Dem- ocrat. Flynn, Edward Daily and John Hill were harged with stealing brasses from the Gournais of freight cars. Their cases were court and Daly went to trial. He was convicted, and the punishment was fixed at three months in the Workhouse. This severe sentence caused Flynn and Hill to begin negotia- tions for permission to plead guilty in the hope that they could thereby lessen their punishment. They were allowed to plead with the un- derstanding that they should be sentenced to only 60 days without costs. Monday they appeared in court to re- ceive sentence. Daily had gone to prison. With the two were ‘Chris Schawacker and “Snako’’ Kenney. It is said that Kenney told several of his acquaintances alout the Four Courts that they were going to see Judge Spencer and ask him to defer the sentence of Flynn until next Monday, be- cause he would be needed by Schawacker in the pitmary on Friday When Judge Spencer att ived, Schawacker went to his office and was closeted with him for some time. When the Judge as- cended the bench he announced that sen- tence of John Flynn would be deferred un- ti] next Monday. Hill received no such clemency and was sent to the Workhouse. "Mhese facts were communicated to Schu- ler and this liewtenant, Percival Adams. and they have increas si the bitterness of their assaults on the Schawuacker crowd. The representation that was made to Judge Spencer that caused him to grant a etay of execution in the case of Flynn was that his mother was very ill and about to die. oSe POLITICAL NOTES.

Facts Brought Out at the Inquisition of Several Women Who Have Re- peatedly Evaded the Pay- ment of Fines. Police Justice George B. Sidener has written a letter to Mayor Ziegenhein, in which he presents his side of the case against him made by the grandjury in its report. Before the Mayor received this letter he announced that he would not pay any at- tention to the grandjury’s charge against Judge Sidener, intimating that it was spite work instigated by the Police Department. Judge Sidener’s letter follows: St. Louis, March 28, 1900.—To His Honor, Mayor Ziegenhbein, Mayor of the City ‘ Louls: Dear Sir—In the final report of the fuary grandjury, 1900, of the Oircuit Court — _: returned March 26, that grandjury has to make certain statements in that re- port Fehative to myself, as Judge of the First istrict Police Court of this city, and recommend that your Honor investigate my conduct If your Honor can find anything in said report, either by statement or innuendo, which is the subject of lawful investigation, I trust that your Honor will make that investigation at the earliest possible moment. The report states, first, that ‘‘we find on invyes- POPULAR Dress tigation that there does not exist that cordial co- ilan Panes between the police department and the which alone can establish the su- premecy of eur y in our community.’’ Second, ‘‘We ve ad presented to us for investigation charges of unbecoming conduct against Judge G.

The Chicago Times-Herald will not be accused of any lack of faithfulness to Republicanitm. Therefore the following extract from a recent cditorial has the more significance: “Before the writer lies a persvnal letter from a member of President McKiuley’s Cabinet to a prominent and widely read Republican in Chicago who wrote remonstratively against the proposed Porto Rican legislation. In every line this letter breathes the same spirit of arrogant superiority and assumption of infallibility that ‘envelops the Republican ma- jority in Washington.” There is hardly a Republican newspaper in the country rep- resenting the wholesome and patriotic sentiment of that party that does not condemn the mad policy of the McKinley ad- ministration in the Porto Rican matter. Partisan loyalty counts for much, but there is a very distinct revolt in the “grand old party” against the ‘mysterious in- fluences’ which seem to be all powerful tn Washington.

The theater manager who announces in the Sunday Post- Dispatch that mother-in-law jokes “do not go” in his play- house is a public benefactor. For many generations this senile joke has excited the dis- gust of all lovers of real humor. There is neither humor nor truth in it, but it has been made to serve by reason of its ill-nature, which often seems to be confused with wit. As an average the mother-in-law is pretty much like other women. Some good, some bad, some middling. But, like the wife’s maiden sister, she is almost always indispensable. The poor man doesn’t like her, but how could he get along with- out her? Bishop Potter says that “the Filipinos must first under- stand what Americanism means.” He thinks they ought to know of “our institutions and those great ideas of political and religious freedom upon which they rest.” Well, Gen. Otis has been trying to shoot Americanism and ideas of free- dom into them for more than a year. If they can’t under- stand the forcible lesson of a bullet, what can they under- stand? It is very evident that the good Bishop is not a prac- tical man. >. > The memorialists who are trying to oust the man Clark from the honorable body known as the United States Senate assert that he paid as high as $25,000 for a vote, although some came as cheap as $2000.

But it must be remembered that the Council and the House have the power to force a report and get measures before them. The ‘‘fine” work is not confined to the committees. 90 According to a Republican member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, credit is due the press for extracting the verbal apology trom Lord Pauncefote for the violation of Con- sul Macrum’s official correspondence. Without the press the schemers of all sorts would run all governments without let or hindrance. Publicity is the one great safeguard of the-pub- lic welfare. That profound diplomat, Secretary Hay, has been given especial prominence in a great picture of the Queen’s Jubilee of 1897. He was not so prominent in reality, but to please Her Majesty, he is thus displayed.

The floor should be oiled with botled linseed oil, the floor and every part of the room being first made clean and perfectly free from dust.

Five Hundred From the Tenements Were Entertained Last Summer and Were Really Re-Created. Arrangements are making by the offi- cers and directors of the Children’s Indus- trial Farm Association to increase the ca- ‘pacity for entertaining the poor children of St. Louis on the association's farm at Eu- reka, Mo., by 100 per cent. About 500 e:muii- 2 dren were given an outing to the farm last year. It is believed 1000 can be cared for this year. Work is now pushing on a plan to build comfortable cottages in which to house the little guests. This plan contemplates the erection of 14 houses, each of suffictent capacity to provide sleeping and living room for 12 children. These buildings will be ar- ranged in the order of a military camp, with the regulation company |street between the paraliel lines of cottages, ‘Tine purpose of this plan is to enable the superinten- dents of the outing expeditions to keep — watch upon the children under their Guests of the association will be taken to the farm in companies of about 150.

NDPW YORK, March 29.—The National Legislative League has been formed in this city with these officers: , President, Mrs. Lillie Devereaux Blake: honorary vice-president, Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton; vice-president at lafge, Mrs. Marilla M. Ricker, New Hampshire; Mrs. osephine K, Henry, Kentucky, and Mrs. lizabeth J. Patrick, Colorado; recording secretary, Miss Margaret M. Parsons, Mich- igan; corresponding secretary, Miss Mar- aret Holmes Bates, New York; treasurer, rs. Victoria Conkling Whitney, Missouri. There are to be six important commit- tees and the league will hold an annual con- vention in Washington, the date being set- u later. This is the plaiform tl = : “The object of this league is to obtain for women equality of legal, civil and industria] rights through action by the National Con- ress and the State Legislatures. In labor- ng for this object it is hoped to unite many women who believe in better conditions for their sex in a@ bond which shall secure effective co-operation for any reform in which all are interested. The necessity for some such associated effort is obvious when present conditions are considered. In $7 states a married mother has no right to her children. In 16 states a wife has no right to her own earnings outside of the home. In eight states a woman has no right to her own property after marriage. In seven states there is no law compelling & man to su rt his family, In all] states there is a Sleariaination against women in the matter of employment and compens.a- tion. These are only a few of the evils under which women suffér and which united and vigorous action could remedy. A!l women who believe in the uplifting of their sex and all generous hearted men are addressed in earnest appeal to give name, influence and financial aid to an endeavor to bring about improved conditions and thus make the lot of millions of women happier and more honorable.”’ Busy Bee Bargain Day To-Morrow.

The entertainment is to be a sort of vaudeville performance, followed by supper and dancing. An engagement announcement which caused considerable pleasant gossip in the smart set was that of Miss Carrie B. Lan- deker of 42088 Delmar boulevard to Mr. Abe Landecker of this city.

The players will rest from their travels all of Friday and will resume their practice at League Park Saturday. They will have the Rochester team of the Hastern League for their opponents on that day. Contrary to expectations the Rochesters did not arrive in St, Louis on Wednesday. At the Imperial Hotel, where they are to stop during the stay in the city, it was an- nounced that they would not arrive before Friday evening.

AN INTER-CITY CHAMPIONSHIP. That Is the Latest and Probably Most Important Competition Added to Original Programme. The idea of holding an international bowl- ing tournament this year has already had its. desired effect. Where in former years the bowlers were already beginning to figure on rolling their final games, and prepare to retire from the alleys until next fall, they are now mak- ing preparations for a post-season series, in order to be in form for the tournament. which is to be held under the auspices of the United Bowling Clubs of New York at New York during the week of July b-2 next.

WASHINGTON, March 29.—The naval authorities have decided that Guam strate. Zically is of scarcely less value than Hawali and have begun the preparation of plans to make it one of the most important naval bases on the Pacific. The projected improvements will involve an expenditure of several millions for a breakwater at Port San Luis d’Apra, a coaling wharf and repair shops and shore batteries for protection against assault. The department has just received m- plete surveys of the harbor and rt of the island with exhaustive sounding® at the port, and is making an accurate chart to be used in laying down the pubdiic works. The Pin will be perfected. by a ay er ee a ek ae see board to sit in washington, and ad- visory board ma¥ be convened at Guam to furnish additional information. Admirals Remey and Kempff will also visit Guam and make reports before construction work begins. it is proposed to erect on one side of the harbor of Port San Luis d'Apra a coal shed and wharf of 20,000 tons capacity, with automatic loading _machinety, duplicating the p’ant now bein mpleted at Dry Tor- tugas. The immediate necessity for this ts shown by the fact that all naval vessels bound across the Pacific are compelled to call for coal at Guam, none of them being able to make Manila or Hong Kong after leaving Honolulu with full bunkers except through the exercise of extreme econom and the maintenance of their lowest s The army transport service has found that a whole day can be saved on the voyage to Manila by running faster and recoaling at Guam, and these ships wi!l stop there regularly as soon as rapid coaling facilities aré provided by the navy.

FRANKFORT, Ky., March %9.—Henry n Youtsey, the man who had the key to Pow= er’s office when Goebel was stot, Was brought out for examination trial this morn- ing before Judge Moore, but stated that Re was not ready, and. was remanded to jail He will probably not have an examining trial, and be held to await the action of the grandjury. As the result of the confession of Culton it is said that fully a dozen war- rants have been sworn out. Gov, Taylor is stil at his home in Morgantown attend. ing the death-bed of his sister. Culton’s confession is yet made public, Rumors of his allegations implicate prominent Repub- licans. Youtsey had been under suspicion for some time. During the time the contest cases were before the Legislature he is Te- ported to have been much worked up over them. On the day of the Goebel sh he became very nervous and fours | his wife taok him away the te lowing ing to Winchester, where they have tives. Detective Armstrong has been at work on the case for about a month. Youte sey and his relatives knew he was suspicion. About three weeks ago the ere ecution made a proposition to him, to allow him to confess. He refused. Youtsey is about 30> years of age. Ss was stenographer to Auditor Stone has retained his position ry eo 2 Sweeney. He is a lawyer, and is p ly connected by marriage, r_.5 wile ae a daughter of Judge C. 8. chester. Her sisters married te spoon a wealthy banker, and pe “spent, both of Winchester, who also peat night. Judge James Andrew Scott of = city, is a cousin by marriage. It ie probd- able that on account of this relatio although slight, Judge Scott will be of Youtsey’s attorneys, The Youteare Judge Scott’s family have been tremely intimate terms and this increases his interest in Youtseys case. Warden Lillard of the penitentiary, is alse tantly related to Youtsey. The Court of Appeels will meet n ville to decide who is the legal Governer Kentucky, and whether the f cgisiature ed within its provinces under the election law in deciding the contest in vor of the Democratic contestants. The c'sion to meet in Louisville instead of at regular meeting place, Frankfort, is due to tha excited siate of feeling existing at Frankfort and the éauaes that some might come to the members of the court oF the attorneys engaged. The lives of twe members of the Court of A is had al- ready been threatened, and it was dee that by meeting in Louisville there w be Jess interest taken in the actual Sit- tings of the court than if held in the smal town of Frankfort. The removal was @t the suggestion of two of the members, one a Republican and one a.Democrat. The court will assemble in Louisville on Momiay, and will give two days, If neces- sary, to the arguments, and as soon there- after as possible wil render a deci#iaf, It is probable the court will give a decision before returning to Frankfort, and, as the Judges are already well versed with the points of the controversy, having followed it from the first, owing ta the understand- Ing that they would have to pass upon tt, the decision will be prompt. In fact, af early decision is desired by both sides. It is now believed that Taylor will eon- sent to abide by the decistan of the Court . of Appeals, and will vacate the office with- outresistance, though not Pring. his right to ask an appeal to the Sa Court of the United States.

ABOLISHED OLD SYSTEM. Dayton Street Judge Agrees With Grandjury Against Police Court Grafting. iereafter there will be no dismissals or nolle prosequis on payment of costs in the Dayton Street Police Court In cases where the @efendants are gamblers or proscribed women. Nor will there be any siays or re- mittances after fines have been imposed in guch cases. So Judge-Adolph Wizlizenus teld the Post-Dispatch Thursday morning. “T have come to the conclusion that the gyetem that has long been in vogue in re- gard to these cases is wrong,’ said he. ‘When I ascended the bench eight months ago, I found it was the custum to allow such cases to be dismissed on the payment of costs, and, while I could find no good reason why this was allowed, I cid not like to institute any radical reforms at once. “About a month ago, Police Captain Kiely gaid, in an interview, that the work of his men was hampered by the number of dis- missale and nolle prosses in this court. I investigated the matter and found «that, in nearly all cases of gamblers and proscri women, the nolle prosses had been entered on the recommendation of the policemen making the arrests. So, on March 6, I in- structed the city attorney in court to dis- on ee in the future all suggestions of the police in regard to the disposition of these eases, and to limit his a to cases where he wiedge of the facts. “The result ‘has en very eratifying to me.

Mrs. Hosse Has Enlisted the Services of Private Detectives, Lawyers and the Public Ad- ministrator. Mrs. Anma Hasse of 1715 Market street ts searching for a fortune in money and jew- els which she fears she has lost through her too great confidence in her atar boarder. She placed her money and jewels in the hands of Louise Wild, whom she had known for 16 years. Wild died March 11. Mrs. Hosse paid all the expenses of his funeral two days later. Since that time she has gradually come to the conclusion that she warmed a viper on her domestic hearth. The property for which she has looked in vain consists of $3000 in cash and jewels. valued at $1000, To aid her in her search she enlisted the services of a private detective agency. a lawyer and Public Administrator William C. Richardson, but she has been able to find no trace of her valuables. Louls Wild was a character well known to St. Louis real estate men and financial brok- ers. He was emall in stature apparently aged far beyond his years and partially par- alyzed. For more than five years he was a steady dweller under Mrs. Hosse’s roof. When he went to his last resting place she was his chief mourner. It was not until after his effects had been examined by the Public Administrator that Mrs. Hosse be- gan to fear that her confidence in him had been misplaced The seque) to this examinatian was a visit by Mrs. Hosse to the office of Thomas De- war's private detective agency. According to her story to the detective Wild had rep- resented himself to her as a lender of money on real estate security. On this representation, she said, he had induced her ta let him have all of her sav- ings amounting to $3000 in cash which he said he would be able to invest so that it would bring her 6 per cent interest. Proper- ty in St. Clair County, Illinois, was to be taken as security. ‘Mrs. Hosse said she did not demand reg- ular payments of the interest as Wild told her he would put the interest in a safe de- posit box along with the mortgage papers. Mrs. HMosse says that a short time after Wild obtained her money burglars enterod her house. While om I 61d not get much booty she was greatly alarmed for the safety of her jewels and expressed her og rey to Wild who, she says, advised her to let him put the jewels in the safe deposit box along with her interest and mortgage papers. Sho consented to this arrangement and handed over the jewelry. After the services of the detective agenoy had been engaged Mr. Dewar took the matter up personally and engaged an at- torney. He also enlisted the services of the Public Administrator. It was announced Thursday morning that a& thorough investigation at the offices of all the trust companies, safe deposit concerns and banks in St. Louis showed that the money, jewels and papers had not been deposited here. Mrs. Hosse little to the woman past middle age. Post- -Dispatch Thursday: “My case is in the hands of my attorney and my detectives. They are qualified to speak for me. AJl I can tell you is that Mr. Wild and I had been acquainted/ 16 ears. He $3000 in cash from me/and $1000 ‘worth of jewels, which he ised to place in a e deposit box in St. Louls. I am now satisfied that either he did not keep his promire or seme sort of a con- stiracy has been formed to prevent me from recovering my property.” | IS REPENTING AT LEISURE Mrs. Martha Heberer Married in Haste and Now She Is Sorry That She Did So. is a hard-workin She sai Mrs. Martha Heberer, aged 19, applied for a warrant Thursday morning against her husband, William Heberer, who conducts @ barber shop at 1504 Carr street, for assault and battery. The case is the outcome of an elopement Until last December Martha Jacobson lived with her parents, Mr. and Mrs, Her- man Jacobson, at 1423 Carr street. For some time she had bean keeping company with Heberer, who was not liked by her parents. On the 6th of December Martha and William, without the knowledge of the girl’s parents, want to the Biddle Market Ghurch at the corner of Fifteenth and Carr streets and were married by the Rev. Mr. McGill. They went to live with Heberer’s paremts at 1221 North Sixteenth street. Three days after their marriage Mrs. He- berer says, William administered a severe beating. He grew extremely jealous, she claims, and told his wife that he would kill her if she looked at any other man. “Every man who comes into the barber gshop,”’ Mrs. Heberer alleges her husband said ta her, “‘tells me that I’ve gone and married his giri.”’ Affairs went from bad to worse, and on the 9th of March reached @a sensational climax. The young wife's story at the war- rant office was to the effect that on that day her husband threw her trunk over the binisters and told her to go to her own home, emphisizing his dismissal by beat- ing her until her face and back were a mass of bruises. Mrs. Heberer started to go to her par- ents and was followed to the sidewalk by Heberer, who, she says, knocked her down. She lay there unconscious until Mr. Law- son, a neighbor, picked her up and carried her into his house. When she recovered she went to her parents’ home, where she has lived since. Shortly after this the young woman's mother s@®ore out a war- rant for Heberer on the charge of wife onmment, but this was dismissed as defective. that when she was sent Mra. Heberer ga euch a violent manner by _ hus- @ threw $20 at her and said The ere, take that and go get a divorce.” The warrant was refused. FIRE ON NORTH 14TH STREET.

The fire originated t some men saluted and were dismissed. ‘Gee whiz,” said one of the patrolmen, eth: it's hard work for aman that’s not' ac- customed to walking.’’ “It's remarkable what a little practice will do,” said Capt.

Hamilton of Daviess County, whose name was printed among those who voted against House bill No. &4, for the taxation of franchises, claims that the House journal {s in errar in placing his name among those who voted against the bill. In a letter, Mr. Hamilton Bays: “I voted for the bill.

Fourteenth Street and Washington Avenue Sold for $1230 a Front Foot '—The Real Estate Banquet. A rea] estate transaction which will inter- est the business community has been completed, whereby Dr. T. G. Comstock sells the lot, 665x160 feet, on the southwest corner of Washington avenue and Foup- teenth street, for $80,000 cash. This is about $1230 a front foot, or % a square foot. The sale was negotiated through the office of F. H. and Cc. B. Gerhart. The identity of the buyer is not made publio. The property was for a long time the home of Dr. Comstock, and the improve- ments are still sufficient to bring in enough revenue to pey taxes and interest. While the price paid is probably the highest ever given for ground that far from what is technically known as the “business dis- trict,’’ the purchase Indicates the sure drift of belief on the part of discriminating in- vestors that that district on Washington avenue is certain to gaas far west as Eighteenth street. Another transaction In the same vicinity which is roaching completion is the sale of the old Hotel Belvidere property, with 50.8x160 feet of ground, on the southeast oor- ner of Washington avenue and Thirteenth street, for a consideration of $115,000.
