It was remarked by the women on ‘Change Friday morning that Mrs. Dewey, who, when a young woman 25 years , ago, won the title “Empress of the West,” retained much of the freshness and charm of those old days on the plains As the bride of the popular Col. Hazen she was recognized as the prettiest and best- gowned among the ladies at the military posts where her husband was stationed. As Miss McLean of Cincinnati her beauty, wit and cleverness had been widely admired. went to Fort Buford, above Bismarck on the Missouri River, as the wife of the commanding officer of the post, she easi- ly* queened it and set the pace for all the other women from farther East, who had braved the tomahawks and scalping- and the Western frontiers. knives of the Indians to be with their husbands behind the palisades. Diagonally across the prairies from Fort Buford was Fort Lincoln, with the dashing Gen. Custer in command, The natural inilitary rivalry between the infantry at Fort parison to the society rivalry which raged another list of gay, fashionable officers and their wives.

He shook my hand and squeezed it till 1 nearly fell down.” The admiral caught sight of Gross’ smil- (ing face as he was talking. | ‘Phere’s my boy,”’ he said smiling. A few minutes later the party formed to gO to the carriages. committees in charge of the Dewey celebration. Mrs. Dewey took the arm of Mr. White- | law and the admiral offered his arm to Mrs. Whitelaw. In this order they passed out of the recom and down the hallway.

In the lobby of the hotel an tmmense crowd was gathered, and as the party passed down the stairway it had a fine op- portunity to see the admiral and Mrs. Dewey. As the crowd cheered, the admiral re- moved his hat and bowed—that pretty little bow which }s characteristic. At the ladies’ entrance the party paused.

Accustomer aé he is to homage on the part of a grateful and admiring public, the reception accorded him was so inspiring that it brought a flush of genuine excite- ment to the admiral’s face. Three minutes after he appeared in the great hall no skeptic could have doubted ths character of the high regard with which the admiral is honored by the people. It was all the more s gnificant from the fact that men and women assembled at the exchange were not impulsive persons, given to a surface show of counterfeit emotion, The. but representatives of the best leavened afd | Most conservative element which any city | can boast. It Was a gathering of whose approbation any man might have felt proud, without fear'ng the danger of being rated a dema- gogue. The immense hall was thrown open to members of the exchange and their fami- lies and the general public was admitted to the galleries. No gathering on the floor of the exchange to greet a national cejebrity was ever more brilliant. The women vied with eacn vtner in the display of beautiful tolets. The sev- eral hundred chairs provided for the guests were filled an hour before the party ar- rived. The decorations of the hall were patriotic as well as tasteful. Throughout the na- tional colors were the basis of the elaborate display. Pendant. from the balcony at in- tervais of 6 feet were 4 new flags. On the rostrum, where the admiral and his party were received, the center plece was an immense admiral's flag. with Ka blue fleki and four waite stars. Draped about this and aiso above it were the na- tional cvilors. In front of the rostrum proper, and extending over the press desks, & temporary platform was erected. This Was draped in fed, white and blue. At 10:40 shouts in the corridors without ttgd that the admiral and his party had emered the bu!iding.

TOLEDO, O., May 4—Wm. J. Bryan's speech here last night was a really remark- able demonstration. Gold Democrats were cheering loudly for him, nat because they have weakened in opposition to silver, but because they cannot tolerate McKinley's imper:alism. “The constitution must follow the flag,” sa'd Bryan, and the entire audience aroge at once, tossed hats in the alr and shouted: “Long live the constitution!” “When they say we have outgrown the constitution then they say we have out- grown the republic,” said Bryan. Agan 10,000 stood up and yelled indorsement., “We have had four great Presidents sa far in the history of the republic,” said Bry- an. “‘Washington, Jefferson, Jackson, Lin- coln, and I am glad that three of them were Democrats.” ‘‘Hurrah. hurrah,’ came back In thunders which shook the building. as “You Republicans who are sacr.ficing our young American blaod for trade, what price do you put en it?

The people are with us this year, and the are in sympathy with the principles whic shall be embodied tn the Kansas City plat- form, and which represent the feelings of the great mass of the American peop.e.” ‘Why do you think so?” ‘Because every principle of the Democrat- ic party is a postive principle, more jatl- tive than was the declaration of the Re- sublican party in 1896, and, while my party las grown ali the while in tts firmer adher- ence to principle and positive deciaration, the Republican party is ‘trekking’ in just the opposite direction, It is ‘ess positive and its adherence to its own heretofore fixed declaration of falth is now quite dise regarded,”’ “What is your view of the Philippine war?’ “It is exactly what it has been ever since the Filipinos were denied tne r.ght of free government. believe that the Republic- ans are wrong, because they hae taken the Gid-given right of liberty :nd seif-gov- ernment away from the peopie who have been fighting for it for years, and are so determined that they are perfectly a to sacrifice themse.ves, to the iast man, order to secure it.

ALL WANTED. TO SEE DEWEY by the Crowd at the Admiral’s Hotel. Various kinds of men—and women—were at the Planters’ Friday morning to see Dewey. The autograph fiend was early in the fleld, the snapshot fiend was at every entrance, and the ‘l-Am-It’’ person, who thinks the admiral came here especially to see him, was not absent. One young laay, who said she was from Shannon County, brought along an old- fashioned autograph afbum. To save the admiral the trouble of writing a ‘senti- ment,” the obiiging damsel had covered one page with this couplet, leaving space for Dewey’s signature, which is still vacant space: “Roses are red and violets blue; Sugar’s sweet and so are you,” A meek-looking man from Pike County had his own photograph, hoping to get the admiral’s autograph upon the back of it. He saw Chief of Police Campbell in the rotunda, in full uniform. Mistaking the chief for Dewey, the Piker approached and extended his hand. “Howdy, admiral. I come from old Mis- souri,,yes, all the way from Pike’’—— “IT see,” said the chief. ‘“‘You are Joe Bowers, and I reckon yod'd better go back to Pike I'll be up there after I’m nomi- mated for the presidency.” An elderly man, apparently from the country, who appeared to be suffering from paralysis, both constitutional and convivial, waited half the morning to sée Dewey. At intervals he advanced his temporary paraly- sis at the bar. Finally the old mam got disgusted and wemt downstairs, where he wrote on the wall: “T’'ll never take another drink, so help me, Dewey—I don’t—think!’’ A man with too much cargo aboard was lumbering around in the offiing, hailing every other human craft with an inquiry for “Mr. Outlaw.’ It developed that he wanted to see Mr. Whitelaw, chairman of | a 7 Form at Washington and Grand avenues.

The most notable single event of the visit 6f Admiral and Mrs. Dewey to St. Louis, with the possible exception of the great parade Saturday afternoon, will be the ban- quet at the Planters’ Hotel Friday night. Two hundred covers will be spread, and the affair will be remarkable for the ele- ef the eurroundings and the high ‘ter of those who will participate. To he able to say “I attended the Dewey ban- quet at St. Louis in 180" will be the proud hoast of more than one substantial citizen in years to come, and this fact will be handed down to the generations. The event lof Friday night may be classed as the mos: notable of tts kind since the famous visit jor Lafayette in this city in 1825, Ex-Mayor C. P.

THE CROWD WAS DEWEY MAD Twenty Thousand Persons Greeted the Hero at Union Station and Tried to Grasp His Hand. When Admiral Dewey reached Union Sta- ition at 7:05 o’clock Thursday night he found a reception committve composed of 20,000 men and women with glowing hearts await- ing him. No hero returning home in triumph could have looked for a more stirring reception. St. Louis was Dewey mad. The voices of the people arose in frenzied shouts that made the booming of cannon and the shrieking of steam sirens seem but an echo, For two hours the crowd in and about the Station grew at the rate of more than a hundred a minute. At the west end of the midway the crush was greatest. The Post-Dispatch’s an- nouncement of the arrangements was so compiete that few of those who went to the station to see the admiral made a mistake in their searoah for the best vantage points. When it became apparent that there was no more room in the midway another mon- ster crowd gathered on the balcony and the broad stone steps of the buiiding on the Market street side clinging to the slender hope that they might get a giilmpse of the Admiral as he would be driven around into Market street from Twentieth street. Even the carriage which awaited the hero was an object of interest to the throng. Men acanned it critically and women pushed their way through the crowd to lay their hands upon its richly upholstered cushions. Across from the station on PFighteenth street a section of Battery A, with guns unlimbered and ready to fire the admiral’s salute, formed the center of attraction for stil other thousands who had. long since given up all hopes of forcing an en- trance into the midvgy. In some manner several hundred men and boys, perhaps 2000, had gained admittance into the train shed. For more than an hour before the ad- mirail’s train every whistle that sounded and every bell that rang was a signal for a deafening shout which started in the train shed, was carried out into the mid- way and echoed from the throats of the throng in front of the eet Probably a hundred times the hopes of the crowd were raised and shattered in this way. Those outside took their cue from the more fortunate ones within and the re- sult was deafening noise. E-very train that entered the shed was assailed by the crowd which ran here and there across the tracks and platforms. Excitement made men care- less of their own safety and heedless of that of others. A squad of police under the personal di- ‘rection of Chief Campbell endeavored to keep the platforms clear, but a regiment ooula not have dane it. The people were there to see Dewey and they made their supremacy felt. K long, shrieking whistle from a steam s'ren afar down the yards was the first signal that the admiral’s train was nearing Unton Station. A moment later the battery fired the first gun of the admiral’s salute. Whistle after whistle took up the ereet- ing and the guns boomed at regular inter- vals. while the crowd shouted Unceas nzly Then a ted light appeared at the south end of the train shed and the people knew that the fulfillment of their destre was at hand. Twenty thousand hearts beat faster and 20,000 throats were choked for an in- stant. As the train came nearer the crowd caught sight of the admiral standing on the rear platform. He met the storm of cheers with a dign'- fied smile and caurtly bow and his attitude seemed to be one of genuine surprise at the splendid reception accorded him, Admiral and Mrs. Dewey were obliged to atep from the train into the center of a frenzied throng. The police were powerless to clear the way. The admiral, after alight- ine. turned and assisted Mrs. Dewey to thé platform. Tram the train to the carriage the rartyv almost fought {ts way across the train shed.

Postmaster Baumhoff thas reconsidered his determination to not have the pos‘office emp.oyes participate in the Dewey parade.

In Thursday's Post-Dispatch is printed the of the battle of Manila Bay by Former Naval Lieutenant Stick- ney, who was on Commodore Dewey's flagship on that occa- sion. This account is of special interest to-day when the hero of the battle is present as the city's guest. Mr. Stickney’s siory gives a vivid picture of heroism. Dewey's achievement on that great diay was on a level with the highest. He planned the battle in the quiet of poace and executed it calmly amid the whistle of bullets and bursting of shells. The skill and courage of th* commander was never surpassed, His escape from death was miraculous. tut through it all he preserved the same ease and confidence of manner that dis- tinguished him when performing the humdrum duties of a bureau chief. Admiral Dewey commands the respect and devotion of his fellow countryinen, and he should be made to fee! it. Sharing his glory is the woman who has crowned his life with her love—the woman to whom he has given his heart, When she leaves St. Jouis let Mrs. Dewey take with her memories which shall abide with her like a gracious per- fume as long as life endures. —-—_ -— story Why much Gen. Otis assures us that the Philippine war is over. should the war-stamp taxation be continued for so as another day if Gen. Otis is telling the truth? & &s wv LOVE AND DUTY. in Bridgeton, N. J., a mother enjoined her son not to con- fess a homicide. The boy's father told him to tell the truth, and he obeyed. Now the quesiion is asked, “Js this mother’s father’s idea of duty the more to be praised?” Since a@ mother’s love is a fact of nature like the rain or the sunlight, it is hardly to be praised. It cannot be checked or controlled. It is simply to be accepted. The father's idea. of duty, however, is another matter, which not so simple. He may have feared that conceal- ment would prey upon the boy's mind and weaken his char- acter. it is sometimes best to make a clean breast of even the worst offense, take the consequences and begin again. Perhaps the father’s love molded his idea of duty. He may love more wisely than the mother. If so, he certainly acted the better part in this case. Love without wisdom is void, just as wisdom without love ia empty. But people who like to study such puzzles can find entertainment in the abstract question here presented. Like most questions it grew out of a conflict of duty. Is the duty to society more imperative than the duty to family? Plato- diiscussed the question at some length without coming to any conelusion. Lesser folks need not hesitate, therefore, to give it Up, love or the is As Pingree has been twice- elected governor of the State of Michigan, he may not be so small a potato as Mr McKin- ley’s friends Wish him to appear. -_ = \ FRANCHISE |TAXATION IN NEW YORK, The people of New York City are making a strenuous effort to compel the franchise-holding corporations to pay their share of taxation on the franchise values of their properties. Under the Ford franchise law recently passed by the New York Legisiature, the tax commissioners have raised these values from $76,221.25 to $219,689,361, On this valuation the city of New York expects to @ revenue of $5,475,000. As usual, the constitutionalty of the law is questioned by the corporations, who promise to make a desperate fight before the Court of Appeals Whatever the result may be, it is evident that the neces- sity and justice of franchise taxation are clearly recognized in New York, and that sooner or later it will find its way into effective legislation. The progress of the movement will be watched with inter- est by all who desire a reformation of our unjust system of taxation. derive > q - Vv eee Admiral Dewey arrived in St. Louis Thursday. evening. The city surrendered unconditionally. - S = a ed IS GENIUS AKIN TO MADNESS? Now that the artist Munkacsy has died insane, the question put by Lombroso, Nordau and others, whether or not genius ig akin to madness, will be asked aguin. Prof. Grasset, an eminent French savant, has just published a book citing the striking instances In which men of genius became cerebrally deranged or showed symptoms of madness. Rousseau believed that the world was in a conspiracy against him. He wrote @ letter to God, leaving it “to called for’ on the altar of Notre Dame. August Comte, Newton, Dante, Schopenhauer, Guy de Maupassant, Pinubert and many other men of genius either had hallucinations or became insane. But what of all the eminent men and women who have Continued perfectiv sane all their lives’ Are they not many times more numerous than the unfortunates who are held up to prove a rule which probably does not exist” What of the millions of insane persons who would never have exhibited genius had they remained sound in mind al! their lives”?

The vfficial announcement of the Boer envoys of their purpose in coming to the United States appeals ty the con.- eelence and putriotism of every American who adhe American principles “Our aim is to Inducé the hations to apply the prince enunciated at the Peace Conference,” say the envoys. res’ to ipleas “We writing, spelling, arithmetic, geography, English gramm: "nite ; : " . : ¥, &% 3 ar, States history, & United dergo examination. cessfully through the ordeal which we are now undergoing, They fought in defense of their just rights and to obtain their freedom. That, and that alone, is our object.” The point is well taken. The Boers are fighting the same battle we fought in 1776, against the same foe. They ask for the same boon, liberty and the right of self govern- ment. The envoys may be assured that a vast majority of the American people are now heartily in sympathy with them. But they must not expéct much from the administration, which has abandoned the principles of 1776 and is trying to do in Porto Ricv and the Philippines exactly what George IIf and the British Parliament tried to do in America. Their visit, however, will not be in vain. It will draw at- tention to the wrongs inflicted upon the Boers and stimulate the people of this country to do some vigorous thinking. If it suggests an inquiry into the conditions of imperialism, the result will be beneficial to American institutions whatever be the immediate consequence to the South African republics itself. ——__--—_______»ss2¢ Bryan or Dewey or Miles or any other Democratic candi- date for the presidency has never shown the people that he can create crop shortages and European prosperity at the same time, thus insuring prosperity in the United States. Mr. McKinley having done.these marvelous things will have the advantag? of any other nominee. Surely the Democratic party's task this year will be one that will test its vigor. Pettigrew's letter to the President is a great shock to the cuckoos. This act of “treason’’ was committed more than a year ago, but has not been made public until now, and Petti- grew himself is the publisher. It certainly does look as if the South Dakota soldiers were not treated fairly, but “treason” is “‘treason.”’ = = i i To place all trust goods on the free list would not destroy all the trusts, but it would reduce their profits and benefit consumers. An honest, sincere Congress would neglect no means of checking the power of every combination for the re- straint of trade. — ss As a King. of Sweden may well sympathize with Great Britain in the war to crush the Dutch republics.

The appoiniment of Dole to the governorship of Hawaii is a fine tribute to his whiskers. Gen. Otis says Aguinaldo is in Isabella Province.

I was devoured with curiosity, and when I came upon one Whe had served under the splendid old flag I listeened with rapture to every word that fell from his lips. ‘ Once, indeed, [I received? ai tremendous Shock when a colonel, a men who had en- tered the army as a private and had been promoted once for especial service and ex- ceptional bravery, nad told me of the fright he felt at his first battle. “Fright? I gasped. “You were frightened —you, a soldier?’’—and he had laughed and “guessed he could drum up a few other pretty fair soldiers who had been rather ‘quaky’ the first time they were shot over!’ | And then he told me how he had been enthusiastic until his regiment was ordered forward, and then all suddenly an awful fear had came upon him—a sickening, cold fear, that made him almost helpless. lndeed, he had suffered a double torment, for there was that fear for his life, and the fear that his comrades might discover his condition. Meanwhile, he obeyed blindly, stupidly the orders given, or rather he aid mechanica!)- ly what the others did, and as they were hurried forward he wondered that ‘“‘bees”’ should fly s0 close to a moving body of men, and never guessed the peculiar sting- ing power possessed by those particular “hbees!’ And so, with knees, dust-dry mouth and icy hands he stumbled along until a sudden red-hot pain went darting through his shoulder, and as he glanced downward he saw the blood spreading wide and red on his blue blouse. At that a swift, wild rage sprang up in him, filling his throat with curses; his bratn, his heart, his very soul with a mad desire to destroy, to trample down, to kill! His blood was boiling in his veins; his eyes seemed to be emitting sparks of fire! He no longer thought ot being killed him- self. but strove furlously to kill others! Lashed to frenzy by the pain of his wound, the horrid din of battle in his ears, the stench-of powder in his nostrils, he seemed possessed of a devil! He was drunk with the lust and he knew fear no more in any battle! Now, with my Keen appetite for infor- mation about the war quite unappeased, imagine my feelings when I deseovered in the big, broad, gray-haired, silent man, who acted as our leader of orchestra, no legs a person than that magic cometist— adored cf both armies—and known to the soldiers variously as ‘Silver Jack,” ‘‘Fa- mous Jack,’ and “‘Dear Old Jack Leland!” Il had heard so much of him—had read go much of him—I dogged his footsteps as any boy might have done, interrogation filling my eves, while questions bubbled in my throat, that my lips could ill restrain. I was only a ballet girl—but I was always at rehearsal five or ten minutes ahead of time—so was the leader, Mr. Leland—and those few minutes were always devoted by him to making the toilet of his violin. He would examine it with infinite care, wipe it with a bit of cloth, rub it gently with an old silk handkerchief, breathe on it, polisn it, hold it up at various angles to catch the light, and then, one happy day when he was hot upon the trail of a@ grain of dust, which he had closely pursued from the convolutions of the side-plece clear up to the cruoked neck, where wornout and breathless the dust had crept beneath a atring close to a key for refuge and a mo- ments rest. And then the famous Leland—the beloved of soldicrs—called me by name, my own name, m'nd you, and only in e ballet, and asked me for an invisible hairpin (a very fine and small affair), which he cov- ered wh: a bit of silk and triumphantly ¢. pivred the grain of dus. 1 hand heard the mustcians inaking fun seoumetimes of his uffection for his violin, and he had only grinned a wide bit quite gilent grin oh occasicns, and now. as he handed the little halrpin, I was trying quickly whether to adopt the attitude and expression of a Cheshire cat toward him, or to epen my lips and let at least one Question bubble ove them. Rd So with a rush L ventured: You are very fond of that violin, Mr. Leland, but 1 think you :mugt care more for your cor- net?” | A sort of flaah went over his strong face Hie must have pressed his lips hari to- gether, for his gray mustache steod straight cout or aA moment: then he gave a little ehuckling Jaueh leoked up at me and sald: - “Care more for ‘Silversides! my boy? Well, Cissy, you can just bank your last dollar that that shot atruck! 1! just do love the cornet best, Some time, maybe, I'l) t+ll you,why!” And so the big, silent man became mY friend and toid me— O, many things.

We have all of us known people some in our lives whem we could describe with one single word, and old Jack Leland Was one of those people, and the word that describel his character perfectly was benev- olent. He wis not merely \generous in the mat- ter of giving to the limit of his means, but he was liberal-minded, s!ow to accuse, kind in judging the. acts of others, shinking well of his fellow creatures. In ort, he was’ benevolent. Yet people told me that at the opening ies the Dare thought of the with- n Leiand’s mind such furious anger, such a blind, bitter hatred for everybody and everything connected with the Confederate army that his words became like the raving of a madman. One of his fixed ideas was that no ‘“Se- cessionist”’ should receive burial in the na- tive land he had betrayed. All should be cremated and their ashes taken out to sea and given to the winds. Surely a mad idea, but the beginning. Many a time he has said to me: “Down inside of you, Cissy, you always have a liking for the man you have fought with—if the fight was square—no matter which one licked!” So he told me of fun and folly—of courage and suffering in the ranks of a marching army. Told me of the mingled delig4ts and hor- rors of battle—told me of magnificent deeds of others’ doing. But one story he would not tell, no mat- ter how I begged him; but. fortunately I got it from some one else, who was himeelf a soldler and had been a witness of the Whole affair. It was accident that put me on that story's track. One night for a benefit Leland had appeared, bri: alert and martial in appearance, his silver cornet had enthused ence, and suddenly, at the end of a long sustained round of applauee, a voice had said quite clearly: “ ‘Home, Sweet Home.’ Jack?’ and in an instant the house went wi.d.

ROBERTS’ MOUNTED MEN NOW OUTNUMBER THz WHOLE BOER ARMY. Movement Designed to Force the Burghers Out of Drakensberg Passes and Permit a Junc- tion With Buller. LONDON, May 4.—Lord Roberts reports to the war oftice as follows, umder date of Bloemfontein.

Cronje and the relief of Lady- smith. The fact that the position gives the key to one of the main roads leading to the Drakensberg Passes, which possibly may be the means of co-operation with Gen. Buller later on, provides an advance base of sup- pies and at the same time menaces the Boers now southeast of Bloemfontein, is the reason for the importance attached to the intelligence. Lord Roberts has an army of W,000 to 70,000 men moving on a frontage of 40 miles. He has a much larger force than the entire SUPERIOR FORCE TELLS AGAINST THE BOERS, Boer army, and the campaign is likely to be — a . Evacuating Brandfort, Gen.

The only opposition which the British encoun- tered at Brandfort seems to have come from the Irish-American command. The central British army is now in line with the extreme left at Bashoff, under Lord Methuen, and the extreme right at Elandslaagte under Gen. Buller, so that the movements of these wings in co-operation with the main army may shortly be ex- pected.

Yet, at all goints of concentration, the Boers appear tn force sufficient to compel the British to praceed with caution. Their wide front, In a rugged country, makes turning movements off-hand difficult. The Boers have enormous herds of cattle and flocks of sheep gathered in the south- east.

Botha, Delarey, De Wet, Grobler, Olivier and Semmer are the leaders of the Boer army. That they are contesting ev- ery mile of the ground over which they are retiring is shown by the press account of the fighting since Sunday. A correspondent wiring from Thaba N’'Chu Wednesday, says: “There was heavy fighting along the Thaba N’'Chu-Sannas Post road, the British being slowly beaten back. De Wet coming from the south and Grobler and Lemmer from the north on Monday caught British reinforcements for Thaba N’'Chu in the apex of angle, forcing their withdrawal. “The Boers had the better positions, but the British were superior in numbers. ‘The Boers attack was begun on Sunday. Under De Wet, Grobler, Lemmer and Botha they attacked a large British column near Thaba N’'Chu, which was trying to inter- capt De Wet's retirement from Wepener. The battle raged al) day Sunday for sev- eral miles along the Bloemfontein road. The genera) result was indecisive, but the British were apparentiy retiring in the di- rection of Bloemfontein.

Question Appears to Be One of the Most Interesting Before the General Conference in Chicago. METHODIST CHURCH HAS 6,000,000 COMMUNICANTS. CHICAGO, May 4.—The report of the plu- ral bishopa of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in summing up the statement of the growth of the church, says: “During the century the churh has in- creased from 61,000 communl:ants to 6,000,- 000, that is, in a population whicn bas din- creased fourteenfold, the Metbodist Churches bave increased more than 97 fold. In i895 the debt of the Missionary Society was £259.- 000 et the beginning of the «quadrenninm, but this has almost been wiped out The collections of the Women's Foreign \ission- ary Society and the Women’s Home Mission- ary Society have advanced from $1,100,000 In 1805 to $1,738,000 In 1809. “The publishing houses of the church have contributed $385,000 to conference claimants duting four years. The board of church €x- tension having exceeded in its gifts.a wise limit, bas now narrowed its appropriations so as to regain securs grounds. The board of education reports that there haus been an an- nual gain of $18,000 in returned loans. The Freedman'’s Aid and Southern [Education So- ciety bas diminished its debts by $25,000, end has funded $150,000 at 4 per cent upon the security of its property."’ tt CHICAGO, May 4.—Attendance at the third meeting cf the Methodist Episcopal General Conference to-day Was average. Caleb H. Butterworth, the lay delegate from New Jersey, was in his seat, the com- ‘mittee to which the protest against his be- ing seated was referred, having decided that his credentials were sufficient. There were many delegates in the house with Pesolutions and papers concerning the amusement vestion. The Rev. William Faweett of Chicago, though not a delegate himself, had given his views in favor cf greater liberty in the inatter cf amusements to a delegate, while ©. W. Pearson of the Northwestern University handed his — to Secretary Monroe to-day. ‘Many others ‘admitted to having resoiutionms on tne sub- jeat, one of the most Important of the con- ference. Before the sesston began tnis mcrning it was apparent that there would be much Giscuesion over the resolutions. The business of the session was the pre- sentation of the reports of the various com- mittees for the past quadrennium, as fol- lows: w : Commission on Federation, Book Commit- tee, General Missionary Comm-ssion, Board of Education, General Committee on Chureh Extension, Freedman's Aid ani Southern Educational Society, Board of Managers. of the Sunday School Union, Woman's Foreign Missionary Society. Woman's Home issionary Society, Trus- tees, National City Evangelization Union, Spworth League, Twentieth Century Thank Offering Commission. 1OWA, TOO, FOR BRYAN.

GLASGOW, May 4.—The prohibition of the importation of cattle from South America has caused consternation among shippers and butchers here. The prices of cattle and sheep have advanced to the highest quotations since 1882. Dhe frozen meat trade is expected to reap benefit and it is anticipated that an attempt will be made to defeat the Board of Agriculture’s decree by shipping Argentine cattle to Antwerp for slaughter and trans-shipment to Eng- - land. ALLEGED BOOKIES RELEASED. No Warrants Were Applied For After the Wednesday Arrests. Harry Scott, Bugene Padfield and Ed (Marx, who were arrested Wednesday after- noon by the police on a charge of book- making, appeared in the Court of Criminal Correction answer any charge that might inat them. 0 @ Ation for a warrant had been made and Judge Clark released them from the 61000 bonds that they had filed. They may be rearrested in casé warrants are issued against them. UNIONS INDORSED STRIKERS. Suburban Company Notified of the Ac- tion Through Resolutions.

Auction Postponed. On account of the Dewey parade Henry Hiemené, Jr., has postponed for one week the auction sale of lots on Magnolia Heights, which was to have occurred Sat- vesay. May & The sale will occur on the Fire in Hornsby Place. — Fire did $1500 damage to the two-story vacant frame building at 1015 Hornsby piace at 1 o'clock vrigey morning. The building was owned by Harry F. Ewald. The origin of the fire is not known. M. E. Conference.—The St. Louis Dis- trict M. BE.

The morning session was he\ reading of reports of va- MERCHANTS’ EXCHANGE, May 4, 1909. Depressing featutes were plentiful this morning whic the most important was a muvh larget Argentine shipment than was looked for, together with weak les, asa consequence the pit early began to incline to the bear «ide, forciug futures lower. Asi from these items there was Hittle news to affect the range. Receipts were about up to the average, and there was Kittle else to influence traders. The week's shipments from the Argentine i 2,688,000 bu, compared with 2,328,000 bu las week and 2,800,000 bu a yeat ago. These ~ ports were mnuch larger than were ex ected, an consequently had more of a bearish influence upon the market. The opening was lower, as was natural, consid- ering the inclination of the day's news, but in spite of a leaning towards the bear side, no vio- lent changes occurred in the early market. Later the progress of the futures duwnhill was of @ more pronounced character. Business at a!l times waa light, owing to the pit being too much interested in other affairs out- side the line of trade. Small saies were made as a starter, but son interest fell off and bids ceased. - ' bie May was bid %9%c> while July opened at 67%c. There was not much else done for some time. At Chicago there was some. covering by shorts, but in the local market there was little done even in this way. The scalping element found hard work to-day. though as a usual thing this class of traders ure the most alert. The narrowness of the range and the searcity of demand were drawbacks which they did not try very hard to overcome. ‘f this element had entered the market to any grea’ extent a better market would have mounted. but Jacking any stimulus trade dropped ead. Receipts of wheat at St. Louis to-day were 10, - 4 bu. compared with 10,848 bu same date last year. Of these 495 sacks aud 12 cars were local, compared with 466 sacks and 14 cars same date last year. Receipts of wheat at.Minneapolis and Duluth to- ay were 305 cars, as compared with 171 cars Baine date last year. Receipts of wheat at primary points to-day were 341.630 bh, as compared with 268,000 bu same date last year. Shipments, 678,800 bu, compared with 336,000 bu Same date last year. The situation in the corn market was not much better than that which extsted in the finer grain Everything was slow, with Httle inside or outside enconraging influences, which tended to produce a betfer tene. As in wheat. so in corn, the unexpected is alwavs happening. After the jump up which Argentine shipments made last. week it was expected that those for this week. would be fairly good, They are below last week's, but more than dowble those of a year ago. Shipments for the week were 88,009 bu, compared with 112,000 bu last week and 36,000 bu a year ago. This alone might have influenced traders to the bull side, but there were féatures aside from the shipments which must be taken into cousideration. Cables were lower, and this. with sympathy for the lower range in wheat, drove corn lower at the opening. There was no substantial rally later, and for a time the market was dull. May was offered at 39%4c and July at 39c; later this month went to 38%c. Receipts “of corn at St. Lonts to-day were 44,- 725 bu, compared with 85,205 bu same date last year. Of these 290 sacks and 51 cars were local, compared with 322 sacks and 24 cars same date last vear. Receipts of corn at primary points to-day were 826,725 bu, as aaeel with 352,000 bu same date last year. Shipments, 618,030 bu, compared with 752,000 bu same date last year. The oats~market was barely alive aud that was all: there was little of interest ip It. A few bid and offered pricea were recorded, but these failed to arouse any great show of interest on the part of the pit. It was some time after the opening before any- thing was done. Receipts of oats at St. Louis to-day were 46,800 bu, compared with 43,200 bu same date last year. Of these 39 cars were local, compared with 34 cars same date last year. Modern Miller Outlook: The outlook regarding winter wheat has not changed materially during the week. The prospects are fully as good, if not better than a month ago, as the plant is improving in many sections, and a further deterioration in the condition is noted at but a few points in the winter wheat belt. In the states in which the plant was damaged by Hessian fiy and other in- sects many fields are being plowed up for other crops. Wheat is heading as far north as Tennessee, Arkansas and Oklahoma. Rain is needed in sone sections and is causing some apprehension, but as yet there has been but little cause for complaint. Stocks of Grain in St. Louis Elevators. | To-day. \Yes'day.

This actonnts for all the arrivals except 3000 head which ar- rived from 16 different siates. > The small plain classes of horses, 14% to 15% hands, that late have sold for British army mounts, and which during the winter months would be classed as Sonthern horses, showed the weakest and lowest tendency this week, owing entirely to the fact that no more common cavalry borses were for the time being In demand. That order was completed with the close of last week. The class declined at least $10 per head, those that a week ago would have brought $55 to $65 selling at $40 to $35 during this. Their strong position in the market during the past six weeks or two months has been due entirely to the special order, and that being taken away left them no Southern de- mand to fall back on. Hence the big decline. It does not appear-to be known to any of the dealers pontine any more contracts for the kind will be et. Clarence Ray of the National Yards, who is now at Cedarvale, Kan., reports that grass in that section is unusually fine and early and that grass cattle will commence to move to market 15 to 20 days earlier than last year. According to this tiew there is danger of late Southern Texas grassers coming in close touch with the early run from the more northern grazing territory, which would be something unusual.

General Belief Among War Depart- ment Officials, Owing to Late De- velopments, Is That Aguin- aldo Ts Alive. WASHINGTON, May 4.—Whether Agui- naldo be dead or alive, it is evident to of- ficials of the War Department that the Fil- ipinos are pursuing a policy of warfare beét adapted to prolonging the. rebellion, As- sistant Secretary of War Meiklejohn voiced the sentiment of the department when he expressed the opinion that Aguinaldo was alive. There is a disposition now on the part of officials to discredit Aguinaldo’s abilities, and Mr. Meiklejohn said that the capture of Mabini, who was the civic brains of the insurrection, and of Filipino leaders who were its military minds were greater losses to their cause than ig generally ap- preciated. It has been the impression of the officials that the capture or death of <Aguinaldo would mean the death knell of the Filipino cause, but it is now apparent to them that whether Aguinaldo be dead or alive, ‘the guerriila fighting will continue for some time. While in some quarters the belief is ex- preesed that the Filipinos will attempt to reorganize during the rainy season, Lieuten- ant-Colonel Barry, who was adjutant-gen- eral on Gen, Otis’ ‘staff, points out that the troops are now wel! distributed in Luzon and within striking distance of any point where the Filipinos may congregate. Lieu- tenant-Colonel Barry says that wherever the Filipinos can go the American troops have demonstrated that they can follow. To prevent the success of the guerrilla tactics of the Filipinos, it is likely that the military commanders will direct that only detachments be sent on expeditions which are gufficiently strong to cope with any bande of Filipinos that may be met. The last mail from Manila contains a re- port from Gen. Otis giving the stations of, troeps in the Philippine Imands. The 63,000 | men under Gen. Otis are distributed among the 250 stations, about 210 of which are in the Island of Luzon. $9.00 Cincinnati and Return, Via Big Four, May 7 and 8. Through perlor ears, coaches and sleep- ers.

Third Vice President Al- exander said: ‘No man in our employ earns less than $1.50 per day."’ Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 4—Twenty-five thou- sand men. employed by the Standard Oil Co. all over the country have had their wages raised 10 per cent. sire means an additional outlay of $1,500,000 a year. One of the jeading officers amd to a Post- Di toh reporter; he wabeet of labor led to the advance at this time, although the Standard Oil Co. pays the highest price for labor aa it is.’ 0G090G060290-90-90-0090-90-9000-0060-00-@0- i: words Ol however, from increase . & wages ‘Mutterings of the labor storm gathering against the big trust came from Consta- ble Hook, N. J., where 125 boiler makers quit work, demanding $2.2 for nine hours’ labor, They deciared that the reduction of one hour a @sy was of little benefit, as they were supposed to do as much work in nine hours as they formerly had done in 10 hours. To those acquainted with the situation it seemed that the plan to mMerease wages was a sudden thovght. It came none too s00n to stop disaffection of the men with the prevailing raie and the hours of labor in conurast with the quaéterly dividend of $10 a share, declared on Tuesday. As the Post-D. spateh showed, John D. Rockefel- ler’s incame from all sources, allied with the Standard Oil Co., has been $24,000,000 since Jan. 1, 1900. “We have never had a general strike,’ said Vice-President Alexander, ‘‘There may have been troubie in spots with a few men, generally owing to lack of tact on the part of a foreman. But the Standard Oli Co. has paid its men better than other concerns. Ve have not a man in any of our yards, no matter how humble his oc- cepa pron, who receives less ‘than $1.50 a da y the increase of wages and reduction in working hours the Standard Oi) Co. has a direct influence on the polities of these 12 states: New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, Maryland, West Virginia, Minnesota, lowa, Missourl, Massachusetts ania Maine.

President McKin- ley’s influence, it is belleved, has been ex- erted tarow h Hanna to bring about the result in Cleveland, where Hanna lives, where the Rockefellers have palatial resi- dences and where 300 men are employed by the Standard Oil Co., representing 25,000 persons. The increase of these men’s wages means that $375,000 a year at least will be added to what they wi.l have to spend for better homes and better living, and will be pointed out as a great card for the biessings of trusts. The Standard Oil Co. can afford the rate of increase. It has many irons in the fire. lts hand is seen in the National City Bank, the favored wey of the United States Treasury; it has islands to offer to the United States. In its business it pipes ol) under the ground from the petroleum wells to tide- water and there refines it: makes barrels and casks; produces vaseline, coaltar and other manufactures of petroleum; cénducts hotels in Florida; owns and operates rail- roads; owns and operates coal, iron and copper mines; owns and operates lines of steamships and sailing vessels; compresses cotton; refines sugar; grinds coffee; manu- factures tobacco, cigars, cigarettes and snuff; builds engines and ears; builds ships; cuts timber and sawe it Into lumber; makes gas, gas lamps and electric lights, and en- gages in electric illumination.

The $20.000,.000 indempity fund for Spain passed through thelr hands. The rice, cot- ton and tobacco planters acknowledge their power. It means a great deal for the Standard Oil Co. to help keep the present adminis- tration in power, and satisfying labor at this time, when tabor is restiess, is re- garded as a master atroke by Wall street men, who jJook for the business sice of ev- ery enterprise, and the increase of wemes by the company oes a great surprise. NO TIME TO CARE E FOR HIS WIFE, Millionaire Flagler Applies to the Court to Be Relieved of His Burden, Special to the Post-Dispatch. "NHBW YORK, May 4—It's all in how you look at a thing. Henry M. Flagler, one of the Standard Oil magnates, applied to the Supreme Court to be relieved of the care of the verson and estate of his wife, Ida M. Flag- | er, who is insane. She is worth neariy $2,000,000. He is worth $10,000,000 Mr. Flagier’s request is based, he eays, upon the fact that he is now living in Florida and expected to make St. Augustine his home in the future. He says hie busi- ness intereets there require a large part of his time, and that he cannot devote the necessary attention to the management of his wife's estate. For almost #0 yeare Mrs. Flagier has been a victim of menta! infirmity. For several years her affliction was unknown outside of the millionaire’'s home. Mra. Flagler was kept in the country home of her husband. In 1896 it became necessary to send her to a sanitarium. It was not until] Auguet last that Mr. Flagler was appointed guardian of the person and preperty of hie wife, after a sheriff's jury had pronounced her incom- petent to manage her affairs. It costs about $1900 a month to y the expenses of Mrs. Filagier at the eanitarium., Before her inearceration Mr. Flagler apent many thousands of oars in an effort to restore the mind of wife. Mrs. Ida M Filagier is the second wife of Standard OW maa. WANTED—AN ceMAN THE ONE THING NEEDED TO MAKE GUAM A PARADISE. BOOKS WOULD BE HELPFUL. Gov. Leary Tells the Home Government of Life on His Little Island. WASHINGTON, May 4—<Gov. Leary has gent to the Navy Department another of his characteristic official reports affairs in Guam, including the resu.ts of @ thorough census taken under his direction, and a financial statement of the first six meathe of his administration, which shows a gratifying surplus of Mexican Casary be the island treasury. American money. Se not yet entered into circulation In and the figures in the baiance sAeet _ sent the silver currency left there by We Spaniards. The amounts In the local treas- ury on July 1, 1898, was $2171. The receipts from July 1 to Jan. 1 last were $915 and the expenditures for the same period were $6767, leavin in the treasury on Jan.. 1 1900, $4819. The receipts wiil not be so large for the remainder of the fiscal year, as the tax on marriage licenses ‘will not be eo pro- ductive, but the expenses wiil be propor- tionately reduced, as many of the improve- ments have been completed. The governor reports that the evaporating plant is in excellent condition, but he is still without an ice machine. with the hot weather aimost at hand. The steam seaw- mill has been erected and waa ready for work. A telephone system has been in- stalled and was in successful operation be- tween Agannr. the capital, and Piti, the port. The orficers of the Yosemite were still engaged on the re survey of the isiand, which would have been firm ished in a few months, In fact, all was well at Guam and life there would be pere fect with a refrigerating plant gad a good library. Gov. Leary ose ylains to the depart- ment that his list for library did not cane template a circulating affair for fiction. He needed an encyclopecia, a set of fe- vised statutes, some law books and other reference works mere ‘nsable to his of- fice. Some books of thie sort were in the library of the Yosemite, but that ship was seven miles from the capital, over a shade- less road, and it was exasperating to make the trip whenever a question of local ad- ministration arose. The tabulated enumer- ation of the population of Guam has been forwarded by the Secretary of the Navy to the Director of the Census, to be Iin- cluded in the total of the United States. It shows that Guam had a population o 8661 persons on Jan. 1, 1900. Of these 1 lived in the capital city of Agana. In the district of Agana are five villages, which, with their populations, are: Aniga, 146; Aean, 255; Tehungan, 40; Sinahana, 14, and Carolinas, 9. The five towns on the islan outside of the district of Agana, with their totals, are: Agat. 744; Cumay, 6646; Umatta, 2%:-Mo- rizo, 491; Inarhan, 518. Of the total popu- lation of the island 3128 are males over 7 years old, are females over 7 years and 1753 are children under 7 yeare. EE | GLORIOUS Is a matter of choice.
