COMMITTEE OF CITIZENS CALLED UPON HIS HONOR. 4 - _ Also Presented the Case to President Hawes of the Police Board—No Harm Can Be Done, They Say, by the Ordinary Pyrotechnics. A strong and organized protest agra‘nst the propos’ issuance of a proclamation by Mayor Ziegenhein forbidding the dis- charge of fireworks on the Fouirh of July is be'ng made. Mayor Ziegenhein announced Monday af- ternoon and reiterated the statemen: Tues- day morning that he had decided to i®frue euch a proclamation, and as a result a com- mittee of fireworks dealers called upon his honar and upon President Haws «f the police board Tuesday and made a vigorous protest. In this they «gf: backed up by a frong public sentiment. The committee, which was ied by Harry Feuerborn, called at the City Hall and, upon the suggestion of the mayor, later called on President Hawes of the Police Board The committee asked the mayor to modl- fy the proclamation he intended to use so as not to prevent the use of ordinary fire- works and placing the ban only upon fire- arms, cannon crackers, bombs and the torpedoes of dangerous size. The mayor declined to make a definiete statement to the committee upon the occa- sion of its first visit, but said that if the members would call on President Hawes and President Whittaker of the transit company and present their proposition, he would be pleased to see them ater in the day, and whatever expression of wpa they might secure from these gentlemen would “be given consideration” by him. President Hawes told the committee that inasmirch as the police board intended to meet at 2 o'clock In the afternoon he would prefer that they present their protest to all the commilesioners in: session. Under the circumstances, Presideni lawes said, he would not undertake to decide what should be done, although he was frank to say that he indersed the position taken by the mayor and hoped that he would issue the proclamation. The committee which mayor was compored as follows: Harvey Feverborn of the Feuverbborn Notion Co., $22 North Breadway: H. P. Fabrieus of the abricus Toy and Notion Co., Fourth and Morgan streets: John E. Gibson, 706 North Iiro ay; E J. Binzel of the &t. Louis Fireworks Co, 47 North Main street; Jotn Wanke'lman of the Consolidated Fireworks Co. of America, 210 North Second street. While the committee was composed of wholesale dealers it represented the small dealers in fireworks, the larger number of which are located in North St. Louis and uth St. Louts. Mayor Ziezenhein admitted to the com- mittee that he had been correctly quoted regarding nis intention to Issue a procia- mation absolutely prohibiting the use of firearms the Fourth of July The com- mittee talked with him for nearly an hour, explaining that the dealers were willing that the use of certain classes of fire- works and the discharge of firearms and cannon erackers ‘be prohibited. They thought, however, that a proclamation pro- hibiting the discharge of any fireworks would be unnecessarily sweeping and un- ust and *hey sought to induce the mayor to agree to a modification of the regula- tion he had outlined In advance in the newspapers. The mayor ‘iid not give the committee a definite anawer to its proposition, “You gentlemen talk it over a while more,” he said. ““Then come back and see me and tell me what you think.’ Then the mayor meandered down the walk from the City Hall and left the com- mittee thinaing. After the conference with the committee the mayor when asked for his reasons for believing it necessary to prohibit the dis- charee of fireworks in St. Louis this Fourth of July made th's puzzling statement: "] don't think it neressary.”’ "Then. why will you issue the proclama- tion?’’ be was asked. “Well, you see a thousand or so people have asked me to do it because they were scared that some trouble might happen on account of the strike. I am not at all afraid of any trouble or damage, but they are and I believe in the voice of the people.” “Rut, mayor, you have just had a pro- against the proclamation. And there e been others; have there not?” “Oh, yes, some people want it and some pep don’t want It.’ calied upon the ou belleve then that these callers have sounded ‘the voice of the people?’ "’ “Well, I don't know. St. Louls is a laraé city. I guess so, but maybe not. You news- paper men are smart fellows. You see what you can find out.” “If you find that there ts general oppent- tion to such a proclamation will it change your intentions” “Well, I can’t let the ne wepaperp say it all, you know. Maybe yes. don’t know. You can’t tell.” ‘The visit of this committee has not in- G@uced you to change your mind regard- ing the proclamation—that is to modify your o nal plan.” “No, guess not. It is a long time, a —_ le of wecks till the Fourth of July, n't it? Come and see me to-morrow.” Harvey Feuerborn, who led the delegation to the mayor's office, says: ‘““This prolama- tion is equivalent to confiscation of proper- ty. As we have told the mayor, this talk of warning the dealers in time is all non- sense, as all the stocks of fireworks In the city have already been laid in. Onis proclamation which the mayor seems bent upon issuing, wether or no, means heavy iass to the men who can least eff it. Think of the scores of little deal- aeerks have invested their all in this stock in many cases have borrowed money. one knows that a large part of this stock is perishable, and even that part that ,Y not cannot be turned back and the Iittie ealers cannot afford to carry it over for a year. The proclamation would be an out- ’ © great Aifficulty we have had In pre- oonting our protest to the proposed pro- lamation of the mayor has been his iIn- nite statements,”’ said John E. Gibson, “He says that there ts a great demand for the regulation, but does not say from what source t comes nor what the argu- ments of his petitioners have been. “We have ‘ried to make it clear to him that the dealers do not desire that the city De thrown mto danger; that we are quite waring to refrain from selling dangerous losives or firearms, even bdiank cart- pistols, although this, too, means a to an, at we can see no harm in diecharge of pin-wheels, Roman can- oa fad Arb and such other fireworks t did not exist last Fourth of July and not af noe lon every celebration of In- y since the Dirth of the rays that he intende to issue mation Geoause there is a street in the oy.

He repeats that he is certain that the d:scharge of fireworks caw nave no effcct on the strike, and that he knows no reason for believing that the ordinary noise of the Fourth of July will incite anyboly ito arson, murder or other crime in a greater Gegree this year than it has in each of the other years since he was a boy himeelf and knew the joys wrapped up in a \waper of little red firecrackers. “Nevertheless he seems determined to issue this proclamation. He says that he is certain that ‘the people’ are too nervous proposed are always said: believe that : and afraid, but he does not designate what ‘people.” He admits at the same time that in his own opinion there is no justificarion for the absclute suppression of fireworks, but he will not, so far at ‘east, agree to any modification of the sweeping order he has praposed.”” A. W. Losee, representative of the Ameri- (‘o., says: “I do not think fireworks on the Fourth of July should be stopped altogeather. The fireworks could be restricted to. the kind that can do no damage, if necessary, but the fireworks should not be abolished alto- ether. If this is done it will work a great ardship on many of the smaller dealers who have iaid 'n stocks of fireworks, ex- pecting to tecoup in the Fourth of July trade what hus been lost since the strike started.’’ E. R. Schwerdtmann of the Schwerdt- mann Tov Co. has this to say: ‘‘There are many kinds of hreworks that could be used to celebrate the EKourth of July. which could do no harm. If fireworks are for- bidden altogether a number cf dealers who have laid in stocks will suffer heavily. I notice Mayor Ziegenhein says in a news- paper article that there is plenty of time yet to give warning so people will not lay in their stocks. I wish to say that every stock of fireworks in St. Louis was bought as far back probably as last December or January, wren the strike conditions now existing were entirely unforeseen. Ro- man candles, pin-wheels, balloons, sky- rockets and that class of fireworks really make the best display and their use will injure no one. Let the larger firecrackers and guns and pistols be forbidden. if neces- Sary, but .et the other fireworks remain.” Fr. A. Weber, 2012 Mast Grand avenue, is another dealer in fireworks who makes a Strong protest against the mayor's procla- mation. Mr. Hawes said: mayor's proclamation was the re- of a conference jbetween the police board, Col, Cavender, Sheriff Pohlman and the twelve police captains. The captains and Col. Cavender were of the opinion that the innocent use of firecrackers and fire- works would be used as a cloak by the dis- orderly element for the firing of more dan- gerous explosives and firearms. They agreed that it would be impossible to control the situation under those circumstances and that the welfare of the whole city de- manded that no explosives be used at al! on the Fourth. The work of the posse would be greatly increased by the fact that with so many small explosions sounding all day it would be impossible far them to locate real trouble. However, the matter will be dis- cussed again at the board meeting this afternoon.” “I cannot too strongly indorse the mayor's expressed intention of issuing the prociama- tlon prohibiting the use of fireworks on the Fourth of July,” said Chief of Police Camp- bell to the Post-Dispatch Tuesday morning, “If the proclamation is issued it will save the police a great deal of annoyance and will permit us to perform our important du- les intelligently “If the prociamation be issued the police will see that it is rigidly enforced. We wil: arrest every person who discharges fire- works. The police will go right into the yards of the people and make such arrests as may be necessary. Whenever we will hear an explosion on the Fourth we will rush right to the piace and investigate it. If the people lowed to discharge fireworks on that day the police would not know when some car had been blown up until some citizen noti- fled them that several persons had been killed. As it is. whenever the police hear any such a noise they will rush at once to the place where the noise appears to come from and the police will be able to handle any trouble should ft ariae.”’ Sheriff Pohiman said: ‘| regard the ban- ishment of fireworks on the Fourth of July as the necessary thing to be done by the mayor. Of course, if the celebration could be limited to shooting fireworks and pin- wheels and that sort of thing there would be neither harm nor danger in it But this would be out of the question. And if the mayor forbids fireworks, why, I shan't have any in my yard—that's all. Another thing, 1 want to get my posse off, and if there are no fireworks this will be more easily done than if the day is celebrated in the usual] style."’ A BROKER ROBBED OF $55,008 Cet alien H. K.

The train of eight coaches in which they were going to. Jacksonville, IIL, via the Chicago & Alton Railroad, in charge of Conductor Wm. Prough was run into on the bridge approach at Madison, by the C. & A. midnight special from Chicago, due in St. Louis at 8 o’clock, but 15 minutes late, which was in charge of Conductor Geo. Dales. That many weré not killed and wounded That no one was so mucn is a greater wonder. The trains came toayxether on the high embankment leading to the bridge, about a quarter of a mile west of the Madison- Venice station of the Merchants’ Terminal Association. The excursion train, which left Union Station at 8 o'clock, with its happy had of men, women and children, was running down off the bridge. At the point where the collision cccurred, there is a switch connecting the east ind west tracks. A signal station «stands about 100 yards west of this switch. It has not been aetermined whether tho signal was in error or whether the engineers made a mistake. No. & the heavy night C.. & A. train from Chicago, was speeding up the grade toward the bridge. Before either engineer was aware of the mistake the engine of No. & had entered the switch and was bearing down upon the center of the excursion train, directly in its path. Attempts to stop the heavy express train failed, although they decreased her epeed., No. &'s engine struck the excursion train about the center and almost squarely be- tween the two coaches. Her nose rubbed the side of the front coach and smashed in the corner of the one behind, then bounded alone and scraped the siding off along its whole length. . The front of No. 8 engine was crushed but it was not disabled. The coach that’ had received the main blow was knocked from the track, the front truck flying down the embankment to the is marvelous. as é6cratched baindtinnr tech | WRECKED EXCURSION COACHES.

Road, Whose Train Was Run Into by the Chicago Express. was swung the rear end diagonally south, while the car lay around so that across the track. The coupling at the point of contact had parted and the excursion car first struck was pulled along the. track, her rear end resting on the tracks. Her rear trucks had been knocked from under her. he persons in the two coaches, es- pecially the rcar one, were badly frightened and shaken up. Dut when they took stock they were as- astonished to find that no one had been hurt. One woman faintel and another complained that her hip had been slightly bruised. _ The passengers on the two damaged coaches were transferred to the other part of the train and the excursion party pro- ceeded on its way to Jacksonville. The engine cf No. 8 was unhooked, an- other was substituted for it, and the train came on to St. Louis, efter a delay of about half cn hour. By noon the wrecked cars were cleared away. The St. Louis Sunday School Superintend.- ents’ Association, which was oiving the ex- ¢cursion, is composed of the superinten-lents of all the St. Louis Sunday schools, regard- less of denominational affiliations. Itg ob- ject is to promote harmony among S: nday echool workers and to give force to move. ments to arouse interest in Sunday school work. It has become a custom to give an ex- cursion every year to some place cf inter- est. This year Jacksonville was selected on account of the many state iretitutions and colleges it contains. The train carrying the passengers Was specially chartered, and only those persons with credentials from the association were permitted to ride on it. But the passenger list was not limited to members of the association. Many Sunday- school teachers accepted invitations to join the excursion and their children, as well as the children of the superintendents, were permitted to accompany them, William Yaeger and Charles Goodfellow were engineer and fireman respectively on the excursion train. Sidney Bene and Will- iam Roderick were engineer and fireman on the Chicago train. When the train pulled out of the shed at Union Station it carried over 350 pas- sengers, 250 of them adults. The excursionists were none the worse for _ experience. They wi'l return late Tues- day. a SETTLEMENT PLAN SUBMITTED Proposition Offered by Three Citizens Received With Favor by a Tran- sit Company Official. Three prominent citizens of St. Louis pre- sented a proposition for the settlement of the strike to an official in authority to speak for the transit company Tuesday morning and received assurances that the the official. The committee—self appointed—was asked by the transit company official to secure the acceptance of the proposition by rep- resentatives of the strklers and to call on the campany after having secured this.

Satisfaction with the reception accorded were al- | ‘expressed by the comittee and they departed their propasition by the transit official was to submit the palin to the strike leaders.

C., June %.—<After a day of uncertainty and suspense official in°ormation came with a rush early today concerning the forces operating at Tien Tsin and those seeking to break through to Pekin. Admiral Kempff’s dispatch and that from Consul Fowler at Che Foo both confirmed the reports that the combined forces which have been operating near Tien Tsin entered the city on the 2rd. This is the relief column including Maj, Littleton Waller and 130 United States marines, which suffered a repulse on their first movement. Beyond the brief statement of four killed and seven wounded, nothing has come as to the casualties of this first attack, but the result of the second move- ment, which nas been awaited with deepest concern, is now cleared by the admiral’s report that the force has got through with small loss. It remains yet to be reported how the re- lief column found affairs at Tien Tsin, where, according to the unofficial reports of last week, anarchy prevailed and the for- eign quarters were destroyed. But the admiral’s report turned attention in a new direction by the statement that Pekin relief force is reported ten miles from Tien Tsin, surrounded. This is the first word of any kind that has located the party of 2000 under vice-admiral Seymour and included Capt. McCalla, with about 100 United States marines. The last’ heard of them was on June 12—just two weeks ago— when they were stalled at Lang Fang, about two-thirds of the way from Jien Tsin to Pekin, short of supplies and water, the railroad torn up, 4nd with a menacing army of Chinese about them, In Admiral Kempff'’s information it dis- closes that Admiral Seymour's force has not been able to get through to Pekin, but has retraced a good part of the distance ,reviously covered, and is now back within ten miles of Tien Tsin. The whole distance from Tien Tsin to Pekin is about eighty miles. and the Seymour expedition when at Lang Fang had covered about fifty miles of this distance. It is to succor this Seymour party that the latest expedition left Tien Tin on the 2th inst., according to the clos- ing words of Admiral Kempft's report. There have been so many expeditions that officials themselVesare somewhat confused as to the several movements and it is well to locate the different expeditions as they stand by the latest dispatches.

THE CRY IS “ON TO PEKIN” Foreigners at Chee Foo Urge Immedi- | ate Concentration of an Army to take the Capital. CHE FOO, June 2%.—The foreigners ev- erywhere are urging the immediate con- centration of an army of 100,000 men, or at least 50,000 men, for an advance on Pekin. Many persuns familiar with the Chinese character think the foreign ministers and Vice-Admiral Seymour are held as hostages for good terms of settlement. They also be- lieve the whole Chinese army is joining in the movement. under the leadership of Tung Fu Hsiang, who crushed the Moham- medan rebellion. Recently he was nominal- ly degraded for the purpase of orgauizing an anti-toreign uprising quietly. ° It is estimated that 60,00 soldiers, wel! armed, but poorly disciplined, are about Pe- kin and Tien ‘Tsin. The Chinese officers boast that they have 400,000 soldiers. Admiral Seymour's force carried a week's rations and the men had an average of 150 ounds of ammunition. The Russians’ con- Uct at Taku, according to the other ofti- cers, inflamed the natives. The Russians are posses to have been shooting the Chinese iscriminately and driving away the ae Chinese who would have procured ran Ftation and provisions and of loot- @ town, eat naval demonstration at all tho trea ports ts also said to be cdesirawle iia ord to influence the wavering Chinese morchants who are friendly to foreigners.

But In any event, definite news may be expected speedily, and it is confidently believed here that Seymour and his command willl be safeiy delivered from their plight. According. to the report of a Chinaman refugee who has arrived at Shangha!, the condition of Tlen Tsin is horrible. Every- where in the streets are the bodies of mas- sacred men and women, Americans as well as all other nationalities. The Hong Kong and German banks were both destroyed in the bombardment.

In the imperial decrees the viceroys and of the provinces are instructed by force of arms any aggressicn governments, and to declare war uyxm any power attempting to take possession of territory within thelr juris- diction. This is a translation of one of crees which were issued by the Yamen (Chinese Foreign Office): “As the Italians have not .ad their am- bitions gratified in respect to the cession of San-Mun Bay to them, it is apprehended that they may try to seek oppertunity for seizing other portions of our coast ““Moreover, the arbitrary and aggressive actions of the French at Kuang Chan, where they stirred up disturbances in arder to obtain further pretexts for demanding concessions from the imperial government, may lead to actual hostilities between China and France. “It behooves us, therefore, to exercise the utmost vigilance and watchfulness” to guard against a sudden aggression, and to be always prepared to resist an enemy. Your smoclienct is, therefore, urged to enjoin all this upon the generals and com- manders of troops garrisoning important points within your jurisdiction, and not only this, but to be prepared also to give aid to your brother viceroys and govern- ors whose territories adjoin your own. “It has been on evil practice among the high provincial authorities to consider that the duty of any one of them les only In uarding safely the region lying within is own jurisdiction, ignoring ‘the crisis that may be taking place in the next ad- joining provincs, forgetting that, his neighbors being overcome, his turn_ for overthrow becomes a near possibility. This lack of union is lamentable, but it must not be continued from this date. “This Yamen has received the commands of her Imperial Majesty, the Empress Dowager, and his Imperial Maj- esty the Emperor, to grant you full liberty and powers to resist by force of arms all ageressions "pon your severa! jurisdictions, proclaiming a e#tate of war, if necessary, Without first asking for instructions from Pekin; for the ioss of time may be fatal to your security and enable the enemy to make good his footing against your forces. “Finally, vour excelliency will be held responsible for any repetition of indecis- ion or too great trustfulness in the decia- pations of an encroaching enemy, such as happened, for instance, to Gen. Chang Kao Yuan in Shantung.”’ Gen, Chang wast in command of the Tsing-Tao forts when the German fleet *cized Kiao-Chou Bay, and was beheaded for his action in surrendering them to the invaders.

From the Chinese point of view the decree of the Dow- ager Empress (presuming the published document to be au- thentic) is a righteous and patriotic act. If she is encour- aging the Boxcr outrages, or if her government fails to control the Boxers, she invites the vengeance of the Christian nations, but in summoning her people to the defense of their home and country against robbers she does no more than is required of one called to rule. It canaot be denied that the powers of Europe are looking forward greedily to the partition of the empire. They do not for a moment regard the Chinese as having the rights of a civilized race. China is a place to plunder. The white man’s burden is the spoil he has taken and more spoil he hopes to take from the yellow man. In warning her coun- trymen against the voracity of foreigners, the Empress is only doing her plain duty as chief of the state. She pro- poses to defend the fatherland, by force of arms if necessary, and there is not an honest man in any white man’s country who will not say she is acting within her rights. So far as the American government is concerned, the only duty, as the Fost-Dispatch has already pointed out, is to protect American life and property. Beyond this we cannot go. We cannct in decency participate in the burglary. Crim- inal aggression must not become the fixed policy of this gov- ernment. The Filipinos must not be allowed to hold a convention on the Fourth of July. The Fourth is Independence Day. — Se. WOMEN PULLING PLOWS. It seems very shocking to the American woman to read that among the Russien settlers in the Northwest women some- times help to draw the plow, as descrjbed in the Sunday Post-Dispatch. ‘The suggestion is made that the Canadian government should forbid it, because it is barbarous, It is claimed that it shows gross laziness and stupidity on the part of the Russian men. The probability is that with the Doukhobors, who take this method of cultivating land, it is a case of grim necessity and will be voluntarily abandoned as soon as they get sufficient means to buy draught animals. Given a strong peasant family, settled on a piece of land in America, with only their labor as first investment, the prime necessity is to turn over as much soil as possible. As it takes muscular strength and skill to guide a plow, it may be that the Doukhobors find it a natural division of labor for the women and children to pull and the strongest and most skill- ful man to turn the furrow. Perhaps the Doukhobor’s idea is that it is better to have a plowed field, if one is a farmer, than to let it lie fallow while waiting for a draft quadruped. = ™ Teddy Roosevelt's Wild West Show will be highly convincing to intelligent voters. > — SS THE WAY TO SETTLE STRIKES. The settlement of the East St. Louis strike of painters and carpenters is an example of how the parties to such contro- versies should go about to procure a reconciliation. It was decided to leave the matter to the State Board of Arbitration, a body without legal authority to enforce its judgment, but, as appears in this case having moral influence which was respected by both contractors and workingmen, The board’s report published in the Sunday Post-Dispatch is a model statement. The matter was impartially investi- gated, arguments were heard from both sides and the circum- stances of trade fully considered. The result is a finding which commands the acquiescence of both parties and a peaceful settlement of what might have been an ugly dispute. = -— i i Where @id the Chinese get their modern guns? They have a surprising number of them. — a POLITICAL OFFENDERS. The resolutions adopted by the United Irish-American So- cleties concerning the action of the United States government im the case of Mullett and Fitzharris, the two men who had served a term in an English prison for complicity in the Phenix Park murders, suggest a caution which Americans would do well to heed. In cases of this kind the wisest course is to construe the law liberally and adopt a generous interpretation of the facts. We cannot afford to have it said that the United States gov- ernment is inclined to deny the hospitality of this country to political offenders. 'It is very doubtful if the British government would refuse asylum to offenders from the continent of Europe guilty, in similar circumstances of the crime of which these two men were convicted. The English never forget whose ox is gored. The distinction between political and civil offenders should not be lost sight of. Too much complacency towards foreign governments in this regard will not improve the American reputation among lovers of freedom. = = __ = = Isn't an Injunction tn order forbidding the dynamiting of transit company's property by transit company employes? - —- = MAN AND HIS NEURONS. The neuron is a nerve cell. Neither Pythagoras nor Piato knew that man had neurons, These philosophers had no mi- s. : When the neurons were discovered, they were immediately studied with fervor. A scientist of repute put forth the theory that each neuron had an independent life. When a man went to sleep it was because his neurons contracted and failed to touch one another. Hence, the communication with his brain was broken. When the neurons got rested, they stretched themselves on-e more. They touched and formed a continu- line in the nerve.

On the way home he met Ruth, standing with Dare and Mr. Alwynn on the steps of the village church. As they stood together on the church steps a fiy, heavily laden with luggage, came slowly up the road toward them, and as it reacned the steps a shrill voice sud- denly called to the driver to stop. As it came grincing to a standstill the glass was hastily put down and a little woman with a very bold pair of black eyes and a somewhat laced-in figure -got out and came toward them. “Well, Mr. Dare,”’ she said, in a high, dis- tinct voice, with a strong American ac- cent, “I guess you did not expect to see me riding up this way, or you'd have sent the carriage to bring your wife up from the station. But I’m not one to bear mal- ice; so if vou want a lift home to—what’s the name of your fine new place?—you can get in and ride up along with me.”’ Dare looked straight in front of him. No one spoke. Her quick eye glanced from one to anoth- er of the little group, and she gave a short, constrained laugh. “Well,” she said, “if you ain’t coming, vou with your friends. I’ve had a deal of traveling oue way and another, and I'll .go on without you.” And, turning quickly away, she told the driver in the same distinct high key to go on to Vandon, and go. into the fly again. The grmnning man chucked at the horse's bridle, ana the fly rattled. away. No ore spoke as ii drove away. Charles glanced once at Ruth, but her white face told him nothing. As tne fly disappeared up the road Dare moved a step forward. His face under his brown skin was ashen Srey.

' “My rights,’ she said incisively, ‘‘and what's more, I mean to have '‘m. L've not come over from America for nothing; I can tell you that.

No; afore I set my foot down any- wheres I look to see as it’s solid walking.”’ *Shaow your proof,” said Mr. Alwynn. The woman ostentationsly got out a red moroceo Jjetter case, and produced a paper which she handed to Mr. Alwynn. It was an authorized copy of a marriage register, drawn out in the usual manner, between Alfred Dare. bachew#, English subject, and Ellen, widow of the late Jas- par Carroll of Neosho City, Kansas, U. 8. A. The marriage was dated seven years back. The names of Dare and Carroll swam be- fore Mr. Alwynn’s eyes. He giaaced at the paper, but could not read it. “Is this a forgery, Dare?’ he asked, hold- ing it toward him. “No,.”’ said Dare, without looking at it; “it is right. But that is not all. Now,” turning to the woman who was watching him triumphantly, “show the other paper— the divorce.”’ “I made tnquiries about that,’ she replied composedly. “I wasn’t going to be fooled by that ‘ere, so I made Inquiries from one as knows. ‘The divorce is all very well in America, but it doesn’t count in England.” Dare’'s face turned livid.

CiassS Causes The : i BOER ADDRESS SUED — ENVOYS RECITE THE TRIAIS OF THEIR COUNTRY. “BROKEN PLEDGES AND FAITH.” Says the War Was orced on Them and Ask for Continuance of American Sympathy. NEW YORK, June %*.—The Boer envoys, who have ben tn this country for the past two months, today issued an address to the people of the United States, After expressing regret at their inability to accept muny of the invitations extended to them they expressed their thanks to the American public for “The deep sym- pathy they have shown for the cause of the two struggling republics. “We now feel convineéd that the boast- ful allegation of the colonial secretary and cther British statesmen that the citizens of this great country sympathized with the Lritish Empire in its attempt to crush the liberty and independence of our two small states is absolutely devoidsof truth.” The address tnen goes at great length into the history of the relations between Great Britain and the Boers, which it charac- terizes as ‘‘one of violated faith and broken pledges cloaked under the display of mag- nanimous and trreproachable principles.”’ Then follows a history of the political agitation which culminated in the Jameson raid. ‘‘Mr. Chamberlain, Sir Alfred Milner Cecil Rhodes,’ continue the ed- ‘are the terrible diabolical trinity has brooded over and shaped the destiny of South Africa during the calami- tous pertod. These gentlemen combined forces so as to achieve by subtlety and craft and alsrepresentations what Dr. Jameson and the raiders failed to obtain by open violence.”’ The board charge is made that Mr. Cham- berlain’s revival of the suzerainty claim in 1897, his public utterances, Sir Alfred Mil- ner’s speeches and inflammatory dispatches land the efforts of the South African League | just William trus- | | | | under the presidency of Cecil Rhodes were all directed towards the ultimate destruc- tion of the two Dutch republics. The address declares that at the Bloem- fontein conference both President Steyn and President Kruger endeavored to avert the catastrophe by conceding even more than the original demands on the franchise question, but their efforts were futile. It is assedted that the war was forced on the Boers and the claim is advanced that they took up arms only in eelf-defense. Taking up the campaign to date, the ad- dress says: “The Boers may be in the end defeated by overwhelming numbers and may ulti- mately be forced to surrender, owing to difficulty of securing ammunition and pro- visions, but the conduct of the present war as well as the history of the past 100 years, justifies us in saying that they will never be conquere].”’ The address concludes by saying that the envoys do not ask the direct or forcible intervention of the United States, but a en of public sympathy and sup- port. MAGGIE SAID, “UNION OR | QUIT” Head of the House Refused to Union- ize His Factory So His Hired Girl Left Him. Here's a brandnew twfst to the servant girl problem. Maggie Buhr of helleville, Ijl., has gone on strike because the head of the houschold would not recognize the umtion. Maggie Buhr is the daughter of a farmer living two and half miles north of Belle- ville. For some time she has been vrork- ing {in the family of Philip Gundlach, the presiaent of the Gundlach Drill Works in Swansea, Last week the employes of the drill works cecided that they would have to be recog- nized as a union and also “recsive higher wages. They submitted an ultimatum to Mr. Gundlach, demanding that he recognize the union and pay them more money. Mr. Gundlach took a while to think it over and decided that he would do neither. He so notified the men. They took time to consider and decided that they would better let well enough alone and stay where they were, as Mr. Gundlach had said that he would not discriminate against them. But (Maggie Buhr was a hetter unionist than that. She was also more game. All unsuspected, she had been taking a lively interest in the comtroversy. When Mr. Gundlach went home after giving the men his answer, Maggie asked him if he was sxoing to recognize the union. He said he was not. ‘*Then you can look for another girl,”” sald Maggie Buhr. “I'd be ashamed to work for aman who wouldn't recognize the union. And Maggie packed her clothes and Mon- day she went back to her home in the coun- try. And now there is a place at the Gundiach residence for a girl who has no compunc- tions about working for a man who refuses to recognize the union, THE INDIA FAMINE.

LINCOLN, Neb., June &%—Col. William J. Bryan, who is at his home after his outing from which he returns much Ye- freshed, !s of the opinion that the candl- date for vice-president on the ticket with (him must be a man who will accept fully. and believe in the platform that is to be adopted. “You have refused to discuss the vice presidency heretofore, Mr. Bryan,” he wae asked. Is there any truth In the rumor that a candidate for vice-president will be chosen whose views on the money question will be attractive to those who opposed the tfeket 'n 1896" “It is true.” responded Mr. Bryan, “that I have refused to discuss the vice-presl- Gency, and I do not care to now further than to say that ! aie ioe can- didate nominated for vice-president will De in harmony with the platform. “The vice-president not only presides over the Senate while the President {ts alive. but assumes the office of President In case of the Pres‘dent’s death, and it is hardly pos- sible that delegates to a national) conven- tion would wrfte a platform and thén select for either place on a ticket a man who would repudiate the platform.

Many tariff reform gold ° crats supported the Republican tieket in 18%, although they dissented from the pro- tection plank. But the Republican conven- tlon would not have nominated a tariff re- former on a protectian platform. “There is sometimes a joint debate be- tween candidates on apposing tickets, but not between candidates on the same ticke- et."’ Asked whether he could say anythin in regard to the platform to be adopted at Kansae City on July 4, Mr. Bryan said: “No one, of c@eurse, can say what oo guage will be used in setting forth t party principles. But some idea can be Ob- tained as to the general tenor of the plate form from the platforms adop‘ed in the state conventions. As a large majority the delegates have been elected by | tioms which reaffirm the Chicago platform, it is safe to assume that the ty platform will reaffirm the Chicago pi and will contain nothing which can be con- strued as a surrender or modification of the platform om the old issues. ‘It is equally certain thet there will a strong and definite plank trusts. “There is also no dowbt thet the plan against imperialism will be clear-cut an explicit.

Keister and McGann led at the bat with two hits apiece and Wallace, Donovan and Powell were the other home players to ne- gotiate a safe rap. _——_-+-—-@}----— Gossip of the Game. Ill luck seems to have a kindly regard for the St. Louls team. The very day that the crippled members resumed their positions one of them was again injured. Wmmet Heidrick, whose value to the team as a fielder and a batter is inestimable, hurt hia leg in the eighth inning of Monday’s game, jarring the injured member while running for a short fly. He completed the catch, which was a difficult ome, and then sank to the ground. He arose a moment later ani qwuckily limped to his position, but it War easily seen that he was unable to play and Manager Tebeau sent him to the clubhouse and put Dillard in his place, If Heldrick is unable to resume his position in Tuesday's game, the absence of Donlin will ‘be a serious handicap to the team, Heidrick played a perfect game in center Monday, accepting the six chances sent ‘his way. two of which were short files, in nice style. It is extremely unfortunate that the great young fielder should be again injured, he is capable of paying the game of his life this season. No one regrets Heid- rick’s condition more than himself. The young fellow is never better satisfied than when he ts in uniform and on the ball field. and to be continually on the injured shelf is not @ bit to his liking. When Heldrick retired from the game Monday the fans al) called for Sudhaff ta take his palce, but Manager Tebeau rit nored them and sent his utt! ity man, Di lard, to the center suburb. Pat was not iven a chance nor did he have a time at he bat. It would not be a bad idea to lace “‘Wee Wiliie’’ in ee *k’s position, f the latter is unable to play. as the litle twirler has demonstrated Ty s ability ta p! ay in the outer garden. Dillard is a godd man, and would doubtless do well in center, but the fans would lke to see Sudhoff in the position. He is a good hitter wend has a diarm. Tebeau thinks well of the little ellow's fielding abilities, and only Monday was commenting on them. The manager said he thought Sudhboff would make a fine fielder. that he ad the arm, was fast on his feet, and had but one ‘weakness, a tendency to JIrop a thrown ball. He is a sure catch, hawbver of the high ones, and can judge a ball well. The Cardinals and Reds will oppose each other — Tuesday afternoon at League Park. ert Jones will probably pitch for the home team and either Scott or Phil- lips will officiate for Cincinnati. Joe Quinn was conspicuous at the middle Station for Cincinnati on Monday. He played a steady, fast game and partici- pated in two double plays. “Old Rellable’’ was given a hearty reception by the crowd when he came to bat the first time. Mr. “Prominent Player’ was discussing the attitude of the fans at Monday’s game after the contest. He sald: “The crowd had the right spirit. They started out to pull for the héme team and kept it up throughout the game. That is the way. Give the team encouragement. Let them know you are with them. Don't desert them when they are in the rut. but pull all the harder. They will play better ball then and will win more games. Another thing, if a player errs on a hard chance, do not guy him, bur tell him to do better next time. Some of you roasters try this and see how the team } will play.’ Umpire Terr left ‘for Pittsburg Monday night’ He will be succeeded by Sw art wood in Tuesday's game.

Gilmore's ride on Dixon was 4“ very poor one. It was proven long ago that when- ever a whip was used on the filly she swerved and stopped.

Another thing worth mentioning is that on a track like Monday's, Malay can take Maidstone and beat her every day in the week. That -s, if there is anything in form. Over the Friaco course Malay won some great races in the mud, and, in fact, was a mild favorite in the great Burns Handi- cap, which was won by Imperious. stone’s race on Friday in the slush was a fair one.

Hogan, however, ducked and they were separated before further trouble occurred. The finish of the first race was exciting.

The betting Tuesday morning was 10 to 7 on Sharkey. The last time knocked out his fight lasted but a single rout Many of the best experts will do better this time. As old a follower of the boxing Bat Masterson thinks that this time will turn the tables on Sharkey. " “Ruhlin will win to a certainty, and i7us Sharkey and the met punch these two man in a 1d. think Ruhlin game as Ruhiin said biggest | local | Meud | | over the a g00d ' (on his chances He 'lot from his iand I | right now Malid- | front | the | card looks zood |! | Lemp Tickful looks the best of the lot that go to | trouble winning from Trimmer and Duke of | rious rowin /and Con The entries and ee lections for Tuesday at | Masterson on Monday. “Why?

If Tom ts figuring on having a c'n: h with Madden’s man he would better get idea, form there is an awful eur prise waiting for him when ne gets into the rine with the man he xnorked out in a punch in their first fight. I was down east a short time ago and saw this fellow work. and I want to say rignt now that I do not blame Billy Madden for being stuck has learned a whole association with Jim Corbett, think he is as likely to whip Jim as Jeffries is or anyone ¢.sé. has a nice style and it is all his own, tio He slashed inte Corbett with both hands while they were ‘raining to- gether, and, let me tel] you, he had some- thing more than a good shale the better of the work. Carbett can easily outbox Sharkey and if he had the strenetn and aggressiveness of the sailor they wouldn't beat him for 10 years more. Ruhlin is even better. He ts fully as clever as ,Cor- bett. but behind [ft he has a lot of strength and endurance that will be of ereat advant- | age to him when he fights Sharkey Ruhlin says that Sharkey was lucky to knock him aut in their first meeting. He eays that be now is a much better man than when he met the sailor and that there | will be a different story to teil on Tuesday night.

Jim | Corbett will second him and act as his chief adviser. LEMP PLATE BARGE RACE. ‘Tle Officials Selected for the Big Fourth of July Race.
