ROBS A TRAIN WAS af» The American Dreyfus, En Route to Leaven- worth Military Prison, Breakfasted at Union Station Belated His Story of Disgrace and Sentence to the Post-Dispatch. rr ee WILL SERVE. FIVE YEARS. A SOLDIER REMAINS AT THE CON- VICT’S ELBOW, NEVER LOSING SIGHT OF HIM. Carter Repeated His Declaration of In- mocence and Said He Was Con- fident of Ultimate Restor- aticn to Rank. Former Capt. Oberlin M. Carter of the United States Army. under sentence of five years’ imprisonment on a charge of con- spiring to defraud the government out of $1,720,000, passed through St. Louis Friday on his way to Fort Leavenworth, Kan.. where he will be confined during the peric«i of his sentence in the United States mili- tary prison. He is making his gloomy journey under an escort of five men, all inferior to him in rank. The personnel of the guard is as follows: Lieut. Harker, Corpora] Poteet and Privates Watson, Coakler and Boland. All are armed. The party arrived over the Vandalia Route at 7 o'clock Friday morning, after traveling from New York in a Pullman sleeper. Carter was escorted to the dining room. where he and Lieut. Harker had breakfast. while Corporal Poteet and the privates Stood on guard at the various exits. After a hearty meal the lieutenant and his famous prisoner spent 30 minutes aa- miring the beauties of Union Station. by that time the Missouri Pavific train No. 1 Was ready to depart. The party was as- Signed to seats in the parlor car, in which the trip to Leavenwortn will be completed. Desp.te the peacenisons the guards took to keep ihe prisoner in view constantly. al! dGeciared that they felt that an attempt to escape on his part would be about the last thing that would happen. Their position on thig point was emphas- ized by the fact that nO attempt was made es wy him under restratnt. : © Shackles were in evidence and there was nothi about the party to indicate tfrat one of its number was a convict. It is clear from the captain's personal pearance that he is no ordinary man. tvery line in his face is an index of intel- lect, and his eye is of the kind that loaks into souls and reads what is hidden there. He is of medium height and stout but graceful build. He is erect and walks with a quick, military step. His complexion is Aa healthy pink, and a well-trimmed mus- tache adds to the impresstonable character of the face. H's hair, which is somewhat curly, but trimmed closely about the edges. is parted in the middle. hile there is nothing haggard or warn about his appearance, yet he shows in his manner that he is suffering greatly from the strain of his position. When he left the tra'n at he was confronted by a large crowd had gathered to see him. He tried at first to show an indifference to the curiosity he had aroused, but in this attempt he only made h's embarrassment plainer. If he had been indifferent he would have Scanned the crowd with a eareless air, but. instead, he did not look squarely into the eyes of those around him, but looked either at the ground or at the roof of the station. Soveral telegrams were awuiting his ar- rival at the station and he did not eat his breakfast before reading all of them. Then Union Station that , Vannah, he ordered beefsteak and potatoes. While waiting for the meal he talked to the Post- Dispatch. “] have had a very pleasant trip if T can use that term under the present circum- stances,’’ he said. ‘“‘My guards have been kind to me, and have not insisted on humi!- tating me by putting me in shackles as they had the privilege of doing. They have also .been very kind about concealing my identity whenever it was possible to do so “I don’t think I can say anything more | about my case than has already been said. | T have done all that could be done to save me from this fate.

My hope is that justice will triumph in the end and that my honor will be vindicated from the same source from which its stain has come. “I do care to discuss the immediate future. It is too horrible to contemplate. But I shall make the best of it. The faith that everything will eventually be set right, and that my reputation will be restored to its former high state will make my condi- tion bearable.” Carter was born im Patriot, O., 44 years ago. He is a graduate of West Point, and is reputed to be one of the finest engineers in the United States. When the ment projected the improvements at Ga., harbor, in 1884, Capt. iC: was placed im charge of them. mained there until 1897. when he pointed a member of the Nicaraugua Com- mission. When not to join the Cimmission, Capt. Gillette was appointed to succeed him at Savannah. In a few months Capt. Gillette reported what he be- lieved to be irregularities in Carter's ac- counts. Carter was immediately summoned back to ‘Savannah, and, at his request, a court-martial was appointed to sit in c he went to London ase. The findings were against him, it being held that he had conspired to defraud the government of $1,720.000 on one with the Atlantic Dredging Co. lt was decreed that the army: that all ignore him and that grace be published a year for five years.

He Is Believed to Have Been a White Man Disguised as a Negro and a Sheriff’s Posse Is Now in Pursuit of Him. Special to the Post-Dispatch. LITTLE ROCK, April 27.—The bound passenger train No. 51, on the. Iron Mountain road, due here at 2:05 this morn- ing, was robbed by a lone highwayman a few miles north of Higginson, 45 miiesS north of Little Rock, shortly after midnight this morning. The robber thought to have been a white man disguised as a negro, and he robbed only the St. Louis sleeper and the Memphis chair car. He secured over $500. The sheriff of, White County was notified of the robbery and hastily summoning a posse started out hunt the bandit. The train was in charge of Conductor J. B. Collett, Engineer B. F. Campbell and Fireman Peter Foukes. The engineer and fireman knew nothing of the robbery unt! informed by the conductor. It is supposed that the robber boarded the train at Baid Knob, where the Memphis chair car 1S switched on to the train. The first the conductor knew of the pres- ence of the robber was as he started inio the smoker of the Memphis chair car. A big revolver was preSented to his face and a deep voice said: “‘Hands up!" He speedi:y comp.iied with the command and the robber said: ‘Go ahead of me through When the first pasenger in the chair car was reached he was asleep. The robber commanded the conductor to wake him up. The Higginson stop was near and the con- ductor, piaying for time, said that the man Was asleep. He was again commanded to wake him up, which he did with the re- Inark: ‘‘Wake up, pardner, some one wants to see you.”’ After completing the tour of the chair car the robber pulled the air cord, and as the train slowed up he got off and disap- peared in the darkness. The following is a list of the victims and their losses, the first three persons having been in the sleeper: . H, Jacobs, Philadelphia, $22. EK.

He wrote many rhymes in a strange hand, and his thinks were full of strange thoughts. Peo- ple said: “What does this insect Some said he was a Freak. he was a Fool. Still others heads wisely and called him Truly, thev understood him not, but they gave him-credit for being the Real Thing, albeit they had not as yet encompassed his curves. And so it came to pass that the poet wrote much, but printed little. High-browel editors turned him down, and he could seil nothing. The gaunt wolf howled at his door when the winds were chill. Having neither an overcoat or the price of a drink. he caught pneumonia and _ peyished on Christmas morning. ‘ A hundred years later they placed a bust of him in the American Temple of Fame. The whole world then proclaimed his great- ness. but thase who had recognized him as a Genius in the olden times were late to say. “I told vou so!” They were dead.

From the Attitude of the Congression- al Committee, Having the Matter . in Charge, It Is Believed That It Will Recommend the Appropriation. WASHINGTON, April 27.—The House committee room on insular affairs was filled to overflowing to-day with a distinguished body of men from the West and Southwest who appeared to make formal presentation of the project for an international exposi- tion at St. Louis in 1988, to commemorate the Louisiana Purchase and the resulting development of the Mississippi Valley and its vast tributary sections. Bills already have been introduced in the Senate by Mr. Cockrell and in the House by Mr. Lane, giving a national aspect to the enterprise and providing a $5,000,000 ap- propriation in its aid. This has attracted the attention and encouragement of the sew- tions throughout the Middle West and the delegation noW appears to urge the magni- tude of the project from a commercial and national standpoint, and to give it a status which it is hoped will secure favorable consideration in the present Congress. The delegation was made up of governors, ex- governors, mayors of leading cities, former cabinet officers and men prominent in pub- lic and business life. The hearing was given the spec‘al cam- mittee on the wentennial of the Louisiana Purchase, consisting of Representatives Tawney, chairman, and Steele, Sherman, Joy, Corliss, Burke, Williams (Miss.), Bart- lett and Otev.

The purpose to provide for celebrating the 0th anniversary of the purchase of the Louisiana Territory by the United States by holding an international exhibition of arts, industries, manufactures, and the products of the soil, mine, fuorest and sea in St. Louis in 1903. At the convention of these states held in St. Louis about a year ago it was agreeo that the Louisiana Purchase Centennia: x- position should be made the most complete and magnificent exposition ever held in the United States or in the world. To make it an exhibition of this scope and character it was decided that at least $15,000,000 should be raised, exclusive of the spemal appre- riation to be made by the states In uisiana Purchase for their special The delegates representing the City . Louis pledged that cliy to ra.se $10,000,000 of the $15,000,000 needed. fhe de- cision of the convention was that the Fed- eral government should be asked to appro- priate the remaining $5,000,000. In pursuance of these plans the execu- tive committee appointed by the conven- tion to take charge of preliminary arrange- ments for the fair made plans for the ralis- ing of the $10,000,000 which was to be by (the St. uis contributions.

As a result of work nearly $5,000,000 has now been scribed. In order to increase the bonded debt the city of St. Louis {t was necessary that erm'‘ssion be secured from the State Leg- slature for the submission to the people of a charter amendment. This permissi ™ Was secured: and at the same time it was ga@reed by the Legislature that a constitu- Subd- the people of the state whch would per- mit of an appropriation by the state $1,000,000 for a State exhibit.

LONDON, April 27.—The country is eager- awaiting to hear whether Gen. in cutting off the retreating but of his progress there is no ly succeeded Boers; word. Gen. Hamilton, who commands French's mounted infantry, has probably Dy time arrived at Thaba N’Chu, as he Boers who are retreating from Dorp. The Boer forces at Thaba are not unlikely to make a stand to cover the escape of the convoys from the south- ward. They have camps stretching from Brantfort to Thaba N’Chu, with a base camp at Sama Idell Station. Gen. Brabant, in the fight with the Boers at Wepener, had a narrow escape. Gen. Pole Carew’'s advance was much hampered by the tardy arrival of artillery, which prevented him from capturing Leeuw Kop before darkness set in and enabled the Boers to secure their retreat. The latest authentic estimates of the Boer forces place them at 30,900, of which 13,000 are at Kroonstadt, 6000 at Fourteen Streams, 6000 in Natal, 700 about Mafeking and 1000 at Pretoria, while 230 have been ordered north to intercept Gen. Carrineton’s force. The work of intrenching Pretoria is proceeding. BURIED BY HIS COMRADES One of the Pathetic Incidents of the Soldier’s Many Duties in the Field. LONDON, April 27.—Amid the columns that during the last few days have come by mail from the war correspondents describ- ing the triumphal entry into Bloemfontein. the splendid strategy of Robers, the suc- cesses a month ago were marking the prog- Ssurpassingly human incident. It is an ac- count of the burial of a soldier, ‘‘Name not given,”’ dated Cape Town, March 16. It is as follows: “One small item was left out of down on the right, where the ground slopes to the wooded hollow, there stands a little bell tent all by itself in a Zroup of stunted pines. It is only a dot, but greater than all by what it hoids. Through the drawn cur- tains no bed or furniture is to be seen. nor anything save two narrow wooden boxes ly- ing side by side. One of them is just go- ing to burial—a Roman Catholic—and, their cemetery being two miles. off, the priest meets him there, not here. There should have been a gun carriage to take him, but some one has blundered and the trans- port has only sent an ordinary hooded wagon, from which a firing party of six militiamen in Khaki tumble out and-~ form into line. Four orderlies lift the little box —only a featherweight—covered by the union jack, on their shoulders and march up the slope. We stand uncovered, the two hospi- tal officers at the salute; the militiamen try hard to get the ‘reverse arms’ together, but one rustic boy, whose eyes are biinking has to twist his rifle four times round be- fore he can stop it butt uppermost. The coffin slides under the hood, the six sol- diers form up, change step, and march be- fore and behind the wagon, which a pair of thin, wornout horses strain through the sand. And so the little cortege moves off. insignificant, unnoticed; with its unsung hero, who, to some one somewhere, was per- ‘haps the one man in all the world.

The double ceremony was performed by Justice Walker. Al.l the essential elements of romance are found in the story of this double elopement. There is, or was, an angry father on Miss Corvey's side and an extremely angry maid- en aunt on Miss Hill's side. But Cupid's mandates, in the spring when young men’s fancies lightly turn to thoughts of love, must be obeyed. Thursday night of last week the two girls and their sweethearts joined a theater par- ty, and went to Montgomery City, five miles from New Florence. Instead of returning home formance, as their re.atives expected them to do, the quartet came direct to St. Louls and stopped at a downtown hotel, the iame of which the young brides say they do not recall. Last Friday they took rooms at the Olive street boarding-house. There was consternation in New Florence when the other members of the theater par- ty got home and reported that the two loving couples thad come to St. Louis.

For some time there has been a growing conviction in the minds of the people of lullstadt that a feminine school teacher was “agin” nature.

Fred Dehn, the “anti” candidate for president of the school board, was elected by 119 votes, to the four votes of iis opponent, Wm. Pistor.

CAUSES MARRIAGE OELAYS. FIRST TIME THE CONDITION HAS EXISTED IN FIFTY YEARS. It Is Expected That Two St. Louis Priests Will Be Promoted on Rev. Kain’s Return From Rome. For the first time in 8 years the Catholic Archdiocese of St. Louis is without a spir- itua! head. Archbishop Kain has left for Rome and Vicar-General Muelsiepen, who is next in authority, is now in Germany. It is expected that Bishop George Mont- gomery of Los Angeles would arrive this week to take charge of affairs, and his delay has caused considerable speculation in religious circles. More than 5000 children will have to be confirmed early in May and no prelate below the rank of a bishop can administer the sacrament. The annual vacations of the clergy are usually arranged about this time and gen- erally no leave of absence is taken without authority of the superior in charge of the diocese. The fact that no coadjutor bishop is as- signed to the St. Louis Diocese makes this situation possible.

We will tell you what will cure the worst kind of a case of backache caused irom the kidneys. We will not only tell you, but will refer you to people in aill walks of life who have used Kid-ne-oids with the best results. We ask you to read this statement from J. S. Saighman, en- gineer, residing at 1112 Locust street, Kansas City, Mo., who says: “I have been afflicted with kidney dis- ease for some time. The symptoms were not numerous, very painful, or, as I thought, of a nature to cause serious trouble, until within the past year. I be- came alarmed and commenced to take kidney remedies, without getting any ap- parent relief. The disease progressed and my symptoms multiplied until I be- came almost helpless and suffered con- stantly with a dull, heavy pain across the small of my back and along my side, with rheumatic pain in my joints, urinary disturbances, which were very paintul and annoying, disturbing my rest nearly every hour of the night, and annoyances throughout the day. I had spells of diz- ziness and came near falling on several occasions. Morrow’s Kid-ne-oids relieved and encouraged me so much that I con- tinued to use them until I was com- pletely cured.” Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills, but Yellow Tablets, and are put up in wooden boxes, which contain enough for about two weeks’ treatment, and sell at 50 cents a box at all druggists, or will be mailed wpon receipt of san by John Morrow & Co., Chemists, Springfield, Ohio.

With the exception of sheep and mutton this country exports more meat than all other: lands combined. The live cattle trade is especially interesting. In 1875 the Tnited States exported to Europe 299 head, a fraction of 1 per cent of the total sold there. In 1898 the exports were 269,478 head, or 65 per cent. The balance was made up by Canada, 108.406 head, or 19 per cent, and Argentina, 89,369 head, er 16 per cent. The importation of meat into the United Kingdom indicates @ wpreference for American fresh meat. Imports of salted meats declined from 1871 to 1888 over 26 per cent, while those wf fresh meats rose 140 fold. The fresh beef imported into the United Kingdom comes almost entirely from the United States and Australia, the fermer being 74 per cent of the total. This country supplies almost all the hams bought by the United Kingdom, the proportion be- ing more than 90 per cent. Statistics like these indicate the path of American interests. It is more profitable to buy and sell with foreign nations than to fight with them. = = = — a The Pennsyivania Republican platform indorses both Quay and Hanna. It is funny for Hanna. ooe PRISCILLA WROTE IT. The new woman is not so very new, after all. The eminent German critic, Dr. Harnack, who has made a humber of fresh guesses about the dates and authorship of the books of the New Testament, has discovered that the Epistie to the Hebrews was written by a woman named Priscilla, wife of Aquilla. Dr. Harnack thinks that feminine authorship, is indicated by the great number of grammatical errors found in the épistic. But he opines further that Priscilla was probably helped to write the letter by her husband. [If that is true, there will always be a doubt. Perhaps Mr. Aquilla made the grammatical breaks. It is gratifying to know that, after all, women, “last at the cross, first at the grave,’ had a hand in producing bib- lical literature. The thought is quite modern and up-to-date. To be sure, some other higher critic will prove that Dr. Harnack is all wrong. It's a way the higher critics have But until that sad event takes place let us rejoice that a woman wrote the Epistle to the Hebrews. SS Veteran Hoar has fired 49,000 words at our dishonest impe- rial policy, but he is not going to vote as he shot. > >a _ oa. LIFE-SAVING KNOWLEDGE. Life-saving knowledge being the most necessary of ail knowledge, it tnight be well for our schools to teach a little leas of some ornamental branch of learning and devote the time to instructing the children how to avoid the dangers of gasoline and cther modern objects with which they may have to deal in everyday life. Gross ignorance of the nature of things in daily use is re- sponsible for accident and death in too many cases. This is proved by the fact that persons will soak clothing or curtains in gasoline and hang them up full of the inflammable materia hear an open ilame. We are to-day using substances and inventions as deadly fin their nature as loaded firearms. The use of such time and labor saving appliances will increase rather than diminish. A young person entering upon active life with no knowledge of the dangers surrounding him is greatly to be pitied. - Lr. i What would become of Little Bobs if the Boers had numbers equal or superior to his own? i> Ye SEVEN GREAT NAMES, The art of saying things without trying is the supreme lit- erary art which very few ever attain. James Russell Lowell, who had considerable power of expression himself, declared that there were five masters—Homer, Dante, Shakspeare, Cervantes and Goethe. These stand alone, above and beyond all comparison. These five speak in five languages—Greek, Italian. English, Spanish and German—al!l branches of the so-called Aryan root,, Are there no masters among other races? What of Isaiah and the unknown author of the Book of Job? Ags they appear in ‘English translation in the English Bible these two ry certainly equal in power to the five enumerated by Low- eli. These seven are universal expressions of the spirit of man in its loftiest ranges. If any one will live with them. making them his daily companions, feeding his soul on their thought and imagination, and keeping his own mind in tune with their songs celestial, he will need no more intellectual vigor than can be acquired and maintained by such daily communion. The understanding will be strengthened, intuitions sharpened and clarified and the whole man elevated into a region of per- petual delight. - -—- - = -—- = Senator Cullom voted to seat Quay and to deprive the Porto Ricans of their rights.

The question as to his right to a seat, which should have determined every vote, was not considered by the Administration except as an excuse for turning the Penn- sylvanian down. _-- = CONSPICUOUS BY ITS ABSENCE. The Ohio Republican platform is noteworthy for what was left out of it. Senator Foraker prepared a resoluéion approving his Porto Rican bill, but it was turned down. A paragraph commend- ing the President for his action in the Porto Rican tariff was also omitted as dangerous to the peace and safety of Ohio Republicanism. Instead of a distinct utterance on this matter the platform contains a mild screech for free schools in the colonies, freedom, American patriotism, inestimable blessings, law and civilization. Hanna dared not indorse the Porto Rican atrocity, hoped to divert public attention by talking platitudes. But this absence of specific approval makes the subject glaringly conspicuous. It is bound to be a bone of bitter contention in the coming campaign, and the fact that Hanna does not express himself in the Ohio platform is pretty good evidence that he thinks the case is weak with the people of his State. He is right. It cannot be defended in Ohio or any other State on any principle of American policy. ~ Se ee Mr. Gates not merely worked his friends, but made good use of those of his acquaintances who wanted to “get rich quick.” Perhaps after all his design wag to reform them. Hiad he led them into great profits they might have become confirmed gamblers. Let us not repeat in our haste that “Friendship is but a name.” = S = ow Mr. Hanna, in his recent speech, repeats the partisan false- hood that the Filipino is a rebel. As Spain was not master of the Philippines, and_found it impossible to subdue the islanders. she could not transfer them to us. They, therefore, cannot possibly be in rebellion against the United States. It is no encouragement of American industry for the work- house superintendent to feed his family on imported peas, and it is expensive to the city. In the Philadelphia platform there should be a strong plank against the consumption of French peas by Republican officials everywhere. Mr. Choate pretends to see in the contributions for the starv- ing people of India an evidence of the friendliness of all na- tions toward England. It is not fritndliness to England, but to the unfortunate subjects of English imperialism, that inspires the world’s benevolence in India. hp LiL There are now more than 1200 students in the University of Missouri. at Columbia, and everywhere in the State there are evidences of educational growth. There is no better ad- vertisement for any State than its progress in educational work. and It is likely that no anti-administration news has come from those military oificers in Cuba who are being paid two sala- ries, as army officers and the other as civil officers. i> a> ree The census enumerator is instructed to be polite, and he (or she) should be treated with courtesy. The information asked should be promptly and truthfully given. >> A reinvestigation of the election of Mr. Hanna to the Senate would be highly treasonable.

He says: “Every attempt to monopolize the manu- facture of any staple article carries with- in its bosom the seeds of failure. Long be- fore we could legislate with much effect against trusts there would be no necessi- ty for such legislation. The past proves this and the future is to confirm it. There should be nothing but encouragement for these vast aggregations of capital for the manufacture of staple articles. “As far as the result being an increase of price to the consumer beyond a brief period there need be no féar. On the con- trary, the inevitable result of these ag- gregations is, finally and permanently, to give to the consumer cheaper articles than would have been otherwise possible to ob- capital and increase of size in every branch of product cannot be arrested or even great- ly impeded, and that instead of attempting to restrkt either we should Dall every in- crease as something gained, not for the few rich, but for the millions of poor.’’—Andrew Carnegie on trusts, , .

There is thus no danger ahead to the com- munity from trusts nor any cause for fear. “Competition in all departments of hu- man activity is not to be suppressed. Al- ready the ghosts of numerous departed trusts which aimed at monopolies have marched across the stage of human af- fairs, each pointing to its fatal wound, in- flicted by the great corrective, competi- tion. The only people who have reason to fear trusts are those who trust them. “We conclude that this overpowering, ir- resistible tendency toward aggregation. of capital and increase of size n every branch of product cannot be arrested or even greatly impeded, and that instead of attempting to restrict either, we should hail every increase as something gained, not for the few rich, but for the millions of poor, seeing that the law is similarly working for good and not for evil. Every enlargement is an improvement, step by step, upon what has preceded. It does not tend to make the rich poorer, but it does tend to make the poor richer in the pos- session of better things and greatly les- sens the wide and deep gulf between the rich and the poor. “Superficial politicians may for a time deceive the uninformed, but more and more will all thts be clearly seen by those who are now led te regard aggregations as injurious.”’ JUST A MINUTE WITH THE Post-Dispatch Humorists.

Eugene Hansmann, the Pooh-Bah of Ma- plewood, was arrested Thursday. This dar- ing act, performed by Constable John Grueninger, caused the townspeople to turn pale, for heretofore no mere man has dared to tackle the man who is not only the Lord High Executioner of Maplewood, but the Lord High Everything Else. The complaint upon which Hansmann was arrested names assault, but that is merely incidental. The people of his village have been after the emperor’s scalp for eighteen months. So far as Hansmann’s dominion extends he is emperor absolute. “I rule with an iron hand,"’ ne says. “I believe in being an autocrat. And like Ell, I always get there.” Hanéemann holds more offices and occu- pations than any man known to history. He is justice of the peace, postmaster, con- stable, notary public, collector of bad debts, station master for the Suburban Railroad, real estate agent, insurance agent, express agent, mérchant, evangelist, gardener and a few other things.

Health Department’s Anti-Toxin Horse Succumbed While Dumbly Serving for the Health of - Humans and Is Now Forgotten. ‘‘Aguinaldo is dead!’ That was the startling intelligence which reached the old City Hall Thursday morn- ing. Naturally it created quite a stir about the mortuary office, the ambulance drivers’ headquarters, the dispensary and other branches of the health department located in the ancient structure at Bleventh and Chestnut streets. Drs. Vogel, Kearney and. Reber were for a time at a loss to imagine why any such announcement should be forwarded to their | stamping ground, They quickly instituted an investigation and found that the information came to Secretary Kauffman of the Board of Health in an official communication from Eugene G. Remmers, superintendent of the poor- house. This created still more consterna- tion, as it was known that Mr. Remmers had not been anywhere near the Philippine Islands the past few weeks, But a little telephoning solved the mystery. ‘‘Aguinaldo”’’ was a horse. He was chris- tened after the Tagal chieftain because he was originally so hard to catch. Unlike “Aggie,” however, this horse did not hide under rocks and behind trees. He exposed himself ruthlessly to danger and met a gal- lant death in the city’s service. He was one of Wr. Ravold's anti-toxin steeds. Every day he walked boldly forth to duty and allowed a poorhouse attache ‘ : : to insert a hypodermic needle in his chest- nut coat. But he was not built for this sort of thing. Three weeks’ continuous ser- vice made him a martyr to the cause of yr ld big chestnut horse,” 7 naldo-was @ Supt. Remmers told the Most.

TNA SAYS ROOSEVELT 0 eR WOULD RATHER BE PRIVATE CIT- IZEN THAN VICE-PRESIDENT. WILL RUN AGAIN FOR GOVERNOR His Decision Regarding the Second Place on the Republican Tick. et, He Declares, Is Final. CHICAGO, April 27.—Gov. Theodare Roosevelt of New York has formally an- noumed in this city that he will not ac- cept the nomination for vice-president. He declares that any attempt to stampede the Philadelphia convention for him will prave a failure; that he cannot be induced under any circumstances to accept the nomina- tion. and that this declaration is final. “I expect to attend the national conven- tion,’’ said Gav. Roosevelt, “and I shall second the nomination of President McKin- ley. I will give the ticket that loyal sup- port which it will deserve from all Re- publicans, but beyond that I will not have the slightest connection with the ticket. “I can best serve my party and my coun- try by standing for governor af New York again. I desire a second term as governor and expect to get it. As to what will come after that I do not know. Nor have I my eyes set on 1964. That is too far away. “My position in regard to the vice-presi- Cency is absolutely unalktemable. I wonid rather be in private life than be vice-presi- dent. I believe I can be of more service to my country as governor of the state of New York than as vice-presklent.”’ In reply to a question as to how he re- garded Admiral Dewey as a presidential possibility, Gov. Roosevelt said that the admiral was a personal friend of his and he did not care to talk of him politically. The governar spoke informally at the banquet of the Marquette Club last night. praising President McKinley and making no reference to the possibility that ne might be the vicee-presidential candidate. Gov. Roosevelt left Chicago to-day for Galena, lL, where he will attend the cele- bration of Gen. Grant's birthday. He will be the orator and chief guest of the occa- sion. Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartoria and her children, Miss Vivian Sartoris and Cay. Sartoris, U. &. A., will alto attend. More than a hundred citizens of Chicago will avc- company the party to Galena, where great preparations have been made for the cele- bration. Osbech Wins the $50,000. < .

Ritterband is 19 years old his mother and two sisters a well-known lawyer, and between the par ent and child there existed «a deep affection The family ia in comfortable circumstances and is well connected in this city. After his father’s death, young developed somnambulism, or sleep- walking, and this is undoubtedly connected with the terrifying affliction which came upon bim suddenly Wednesday of last week. In several respects }is unique among the comparatively few reported cases of amnesia. The one thing lacking is known scientifi cally as ideation of self. Who he is, his name, his friends, bis home, his entire past are blanks that cannot be re- filled by with former surround- ings. His identity ompletely the unfortunate young man as t been ushered into the world for the first five days ago. and, as a child, he ably regain knowledge of himself slowly and with labor. Notwithstanding this queer freak of the brain, Ritterband realizes that his self bas been effaced from the records of his mind, and he is willing to wait patiently until such time as his identity shall return.

It was explained that the nerve cells of the brain hav2 special and highly developed functions which are in relation with spe- Cial lines of association or memory fibres. In such a case as Ritterband’s the functions are suspendad in one hemiephere of the brain. Occasionally these seem ta gain as momentarily and then return to the ormer state. “Do you recall any person known? Ritterband was asked. ‘No; I do not remember ever knowing any one. Every one seems a Stranger (to me only those I have seen since I have been here and I have learned to know them. “Do you remember any of the things you have eaten at other times? “No, I do not know their names, but I know how they will taste when I see them and I know if I like them.’ Ritterband’'s remembrance in this in- Stance is evidence of the curious ‘Saraino- logical fact that a person in his condition has the old memories of matters of that sort, but these memories are entirely disas- sociated with the past.

Most of the lumber piles tn Ottawa and Hull has disappeared and are now mere heaps of charred wood and ushes. Half a dozen churches and schools, a number of mills, the Hull waterworks, the Hull court- house and jail; the postoffice, the convent —almost every business place and about 1000 adweiitings and shops in Hull have been de- stroyed. Indeed, practicaily nothing of Huli is left but a church and a few houses beyond it. The spot where the fire originated is about and as a gale was b.owing from the northw est, right in the direction of the lumber piles and mills on both the Hull and Ottawa shores of the Ottawa River and Chaudiere Falls, it was soon seen that the fire Was aimost certain to be a iarge one. By 11:0 o’ciock the fire had got a good hold of Main street, and the entire street, with dozens of cross streets, was burne.l. 'Prac- tically there is not a house left in the street. About this time the fire made a jump of nearly half a mile, arid ignited Eddy’s wood- yard, near the match fac tory. It was soon in flames, and the W mile an hour gale which was blowing drove a high coiymn of flames across Bridge street and set fire to the Eddy paper mii] and the other bulidings of the company. The fire at this time also sprang across Ottawa River and caught the sheds in the rear of the Mackay Miliing Co., on Victoria Island, and in a few minutes the lumber piles on Victoria, Chaudiere Islands, on of the power houses of the Ottawa Electric Co., the Victoria foundry and half the buildings on the two islands were in flames. The whole industrial district of Ottawa has been completely wiped out. This in- cludes the great factories of E. B. Eddy, consisting of woodworking, match, pulp and ae am factories valued at $1,500,000. The arge lumber mills of the Booth-Bronson- Hull Lumber Co., Gilmour & Hughes and others, together with the flour mills of McKay. were destrayed. Seven thousand operators are thrown out of employment and 20,000 persons are rendered homeless to-nie@ht in both cities. About 100,000,000 feet of manufactured pine lumber has been consumed. Practically the whole city of Hull is blotted aut, and, had the wind been blowing from a westerly direction, nothing could have saved Otta- wa from lIike destruction. The Parliament bulidings were at one time threatened by the burning timber wh'rh floated down the river, and severa) times set the bushes in the escarpment aflame. All business in the city was sus- pended amd the House of Commans met for a few minutes, then adjourned until Tues- day next.

Both Teams Vied With Each Other in Doing Loose and Very Life- less Work. Tom Loftus’ aggregation of basebal! talent succeeded in winning the third and last game of the present Chicago series from the St. Louis Club on Thursday afternoon. The final score was 11 to &. The game was one of the most miserable exhibitions of how badly the national past*me can be played that was ever per- petrated upon the St. Louls fans, and that is saying a great deal. Callahan and Powell officiated on the rubber for their respective teams, and bach were hit hard by the opposing batters. The Chicago twirler had slightly the best of the argument, as he did not allow the Tebeauites to bunch their hits much as Powell did, and again his support was not as rood as the St. Louis twirler’s. In fact, taking all things into considera- tion, he pitched a far better game tian Powell. E> The game was in doubt throughout the nine innings. Chicago scored the first run in the second inning and another in the fourth. St. Louls came back in their half of the fourth and chalked yip three runs. Poth sides were blanked in the fifth. and in the sixth) Chicago scored three more runs and St. Leuis 1. «““hieago was blinke:l in their half af the seventh, but St. Lous added fovr runs to their score in their half, making the score 8 to 5 in their favor. Neither side scored anything ir the eighth, but iv the ninth the Chicagoans in started the fireworks, which this Lime cuve them the game. Clineman was the firs man up for Chicago, end he laced 4 beauty to center “Donhhue then put one of the same caliber in right and Callahan fo.low- ead with a double to right, which scored Ciingman. At this etage Powell was taken out and Cy Young took his place on the rubber The firet hit off Cy's delivery was a mean bounder ta Wallace, which he fumbled and Donahue scored. The rotund Childs, the hardest man in the League to pitch to, was the next up, and he worked Cyrus for a free pass, hiliing the bases. Wallace made another “bobble” of Mer- tes’ hard one and Callahan crossed the plate, tying the score. McCarthy then went out, Kerter to McGann, and Ryan scored. erett then doubled and Childs anil Mertes scored. McCormick etruck out and Wallace threw Clingmean out at first. T u mede a desperate effort to win out in the St. Touls half of the ninth. Criger was the first man up, and Donkn wae aent in to bat for him. The crafty Caliahan worked ‘Mike to perfection on one of this shoots. and a high fiy to Ryan was the result. Dillard was then sent In to bat for Young. and the Chicago twirler again got in hie work. and Dillard fannel the alr hard three tines.

Their Meeting at Chicago. Now comes the mayor of Chicago and says he wil] not permit Jeffries and Shar- key to box six or any other number of rounds in Chicago. The second-class boxers can appear there all they like, and the crackerjacks will also be allowed to spar with the smaller fry, but two rea] heavyweighte like Jeffries and Sharkey wil] not be permitted to slug each other in the city by the lake, and the de- will be placed on F. W. Brode if the track is dry. Among well-posted turfmen it is generally conceded that Brode has not run up to his Frisco form since he landed on this side of the Rocky Mountains. It is also though: that he nas become acclimated by this time, and that he will be able to race. Gibson will be the logical cause of the work which he has done in public. this spring at Churchill Downs, Most of his work has been done where the whole world, if it so willed, could see, while the work of aH the other Derby candidates at the Downs was done in a sort of “undeyr-cover’ fashion, which may mean a zvod deal more than appears on the surface. Kentucky Farmer, Orontas, Flaunt and others have worked fast quar- ters and then slow three-quarters, or vice versa. They have not shown to the rail- birds exactly what they are abie to do, and maybe they can do as well as Gibson. If they can, then theyre will be a big sur- prise shortly next Thurs- day afternoon. The horses at the Fair Grounds are all doing nicely these days and the contings nt quartered there will be in good shape for the bic meeting, which opens two weeks from Saturday.

At Tattersalla on May 8&8 Tom Sharkey and Joe Choynski will meet for the third time. At their last meeting in San Fran- cisco tWo years ago they drew after eight lively rounds of fighting. Their meeting before that was on the proposition that the then coming saltior lad could not stay eight rounds before the clever Choynski. 3ut he accomplished the feat.. Sharkey hae never been seen in a genuine contest’in or around Chicago, and his coming is greeted with de- light by lovers of the sport, especially as he is to meet one of the cleverest of the big fellows in the veteran Joe Choynski. Jim Hall, the Australian middleweight, will be seen at the same show, against Jim Scanlan, the Pennsylvania heavyweight. Hall has been actively in training for a long while, has all his oldtime speed and science and claims he is better than he has ever been. There will be four other good bouts, including one between Joe Hedmark, the rushing McGovern-like little Chicagoan, and Walter Campbell, a strong and fast man from the coast, who hae been putting away some of the likeliest boys in his class. Kid McCoy and Jack McCormick will meet in a six-round bout before the Penn Art Club of Philadelphia on April 30.

Last season Cooley signed a contract with the Philadelphia Ball Club calling for $2100 Salary, $300 extra in the event of him de- porting himself to the satisfaction of the club officials, and an extra sum for cap- taining the team. The owners of the club concluded that they did not desire his ser- vices for the coming season, but instead of dismissing him—or rather re} asing him, as they prefer to put it—they tendered him a contract calling for $1200. Cooley very properly declined to sign that contract. He was told that he could sign that contract or remain idle—and he is remaining idle. being denied the privilege of earning his. bread and butter by the rapacity of the owners of the Philadelphia Ball Ciub, who seek to make profit out of his ability as a ballplay- er by forcing him to lay where they may decide, no matter whether the change be profitabie or agreeable to him or not Never was there a more offensive or contemptible exercise of the right of might Jin its autocracy it comes nearer the real Czar-like article than anything of which we have any knowledge in this country | Such unamerican methods would be im- possible in any other walk of life.
