Eight persons were taken to the hotel at Pierson. Men are at work endeavoring to reach the dead and injured who are still imprisoned. Several physicians accompanied the wreck- ing train to the scene. A telephone message from Pierson says that the engineers and firemen of both trains were killed as well as five other per- sons. The express train was largely of Pullman cars. made up It carried the Grand Rapids coach, a day coach, several sleepers from Cincinnati and the South, the buffet car and baggage car. According to the railway officials the col- lision was the fault of Operator Wells, sta- tioned at Mill Creek, four miles north of WENT OVER THE HILLS TO THE POORHOUSE \ Y \ ~ Ns: WITH PROUD JOHN AND ANNA WARD. — ~~ Pride, that had its origin in worthy ances- try and was nourished through years of prosperity, did not desert aged John and Anna Ward, husband and wife, when for- tune, with the last turn of its wheel, threw them to the bottom. When, on Tuesday afternoon, after they had spent the last cent they had been able to save from the wreck of their fortunes, and assistance was not to be hoped for and would not have been sought even if it had been forthcoming, they decided to turn their faces ‘‘over the hills to the poorhouse,” they kept their real destination from their friends, and assured them that they were going to visit their daughter in Moberly, Mo. So great was their shame of the end to which poverty had driven them that they took special pains to use every little detail of their conduct and speech to impress their friends with the story thai they had ar- ranged to make their home with their daughter. For days before giving up their humble apartments they talked of nothing else but their new home. They laughed merrily as they spoke of the luxury of having every- os that would add to their comfort. Their neighbors never before saw them so happy to all appearances and they shared the aged couple’s joy. When the lumbering express wagon that carries unfortunates to the poorhouse, drove 7 to the house at 2110 Adams street, where Ward and his wife resided, they greeted the driver with a smile, although their hearts ached with sorrow. They said their good-bys with well-feigned happiness to Mrs& McGrath, their nearest neighbor, and, as the driver cracked his whip and the vehicle went rapidly around the cor- ner, there was nothing about them to in- dicate the test of grief to which they were being placed. But once out of sight of the neighbors, they broke down and sobbed as though their hearts were breaking. The sun was setting as they passed through the poorhouse portals and it seemed to them as though the great day —, indeed, ended and the great night set 4n. Ward was 73 years old Tuesday. His wife is three years younger. They have been married fifty years and are greatly at- tached to each other. Ward has owned several farms in Missoumt, and was at one time in good circumstances. Reverses of fortune came, and ill health followed. That was two years ago. After his debts were cleared, only a paltry sum was left. He and his wife came to St. Louis and have been living on the bal- ance since. They have two sons and two daughters. They do not know the where- abouts of the sons, but one of the daugh- ters lives in Moberly and aonther in Cleve- land, O. Ward says they would help him if they could. LOVERS QUARR INTHE MIWA Had Come From Effingham to Be Married. BRIDE CHANGED HER MIND. GROOM PERSISTENT AND DISAP- POINTED. John F. Richardson and Miss Jessie Millard Planned an Elopement and a Wedding in St. Louis. After coming all the way from Effing- ham, Ill., to St. Louis to marry, John F. Richardson and Miss Jessie Millard had a lovers’ quarrel in the Midway of Union Station Wednesday morning, and aban- doned their plans. Miss Millard left her husband-elect at the Station to amuse himself as he pleased, while she went out to see the city with a party of girl friends. Neither Miss Millard nor Richardson at- tempted to conceal-the fact that they had come to St. Louis to escape the wrath of the girl's father, which, they said, they Knew would be great when he should hear of the marriage. The Richardson and Millard families live on large farms near Effingham and enter- tain friendly relations. The objection of Millard to his daughter's marriage is based on her age, which is only 17 years, and is not aimed at Richardson, although he is 10 years the girl's senior. this city. The trains usually meet at Sand Lake, two miles south of Pierson. An or- der was issued that they meet at Wood- stock four miles north of Pierson. Later Operator Wells was asked is the express had passed his station yet. He answered “No.’’ He was then told to countermand former orders and give orders to No. 5 to meet No. 2 at Sand Lake. Similar orders were given to No. 2. Train No. 5 never got the order, having already passed Mill Creek. They collided therefore while both were go- ing at full speed. The forward cars were telescoped. The baggage, mail and dining cars on No. 5 saved the Pullman in the rear and the pas- senger coaches on No. 2 were saved by three freight cars which happened to be at- tached next the engine. There were 11 cars on train No. 2 and 10 on No. 6 Only six cars remained on the track and the engines were literally torn to pieces. , | FARMER COUNTERFEITERS Deputy Marshalls Arrest J. F.

SLOT MACHINES NOT SPOILED. Police Say They Are Determined to Close Out Gambling Devices, but the Machines Go Back. Chief Campbell stated to the Post-Dis- patch Wednesday that he would keep up the raiding of slot machines as long as he was at the head of the police department, and he had hopes of eventually driving them from the city.- “‘Many of the machines and their owners have been arrested,’’ said Chief Campbell. ‘“‘Most of them have been sent to the police courts, where they have been dealt with as the courts saw fit. Fines have been as- sessed in some instances, and sometimes the men have been allowed to go on the pay- ment of costs. In many instances the pro- prietors of the machines get their property back, and the machines are installed again in the same saloons from which they were taken. Of course we take possession of thé machines in the first place, but we have to turn them~over to the marshals when the cases are sent to court. The marshals, of course, can them. We absolutely have nothing to do with them.” ‘Does not the new police law permit the police to destroy these machines?” the chief was asked. ‘“Yes,’’ was the reply. ‘‘None have yet been destroyed by the po- lice, have they?” ee a “Why? “Ask the president of the board that ques- tion. I cannot answer it. I wish they would destroy the machines. The new law pro- vides that these machines a be taken be- fore the president of the po.ice board and given into his custody. Then the president ' of the board may cite their owners to ap- pear before him and show cause why they should not be condemned as gambling de- vices and destroyed by order of the presi- dent of the board. “I have had no orders to pursue this plan with reference to the machines. Personally I think this is the proper way to dispese of the question, for when a machine is once de- stroyed we will not have to arrest it again.”’ Another general slot machine raid was made Tuesday night by the police.

CHICAGO, Aug. cinity of Garfield boulevard and Halstead street are speculating on the identity of an angry wife who threw carbolic acid over the hands of her husband and several other men who were playing poker in a rear room at Crawford's saloon. She stopped the game. There are several of the ‘‘gentlemen’s games’ in the vicinity. After making sure her husband was in one arty, the woman went to a drug store and ought a bottle of acid. Through an open window she sent a shrower of the fluid over the hands of the players, who howled from pain. The woman fled before her identity could ve learned.

CHIEF DESMOND BUSY GATHER- ING EVIDENCE. Police Summons Issued Against Two Women on a Charge of Having Made Threats Against Others. Conductor L. A. Swan and Motorman Emil Jensen at noon Wednesday positively identified Brennan and Northway as. the men who placed the dynamite on the track last Thursday that damaged a car on the Seventh street line at Seventh and Pesta- lozzi streets. “It was at 9:12 o’clock last Thursday night that the car on which I was mo- torman was blown up,”’ said Jensen. “Our car was going north and I was on the look- out for trouble. When we approached Sev- enth and Pestalozzi streets I saw two men go to the track and place something on it. I slowed up and watched the two men. I got a good look at them. They are the same two men I saw in Chief Desmond's office this morning and who the police said were Northway and Brennan. “I slowed up, so that the explosion was not nearly so great as it would have been had I kept up the high rate of speed. As it was there was only one stick of the dy- namite to explode. Two sticks were placed on the track and the other was picked up after the car passed. “I did not want it to appear to them that the car had been damaged by the explo- sion. I did not want to give them that satisfaction. The car wheel was cracked, but I made the trip up and down and back again before I turned in the car.”’ olice court summonses were issued against Mrs. Mary Schwartz and Mrs. Mary Connolly on charges of disturbing the peace. These summonses were procured by Sergt. Dowdall on order from Chief Desmond as the result of Miss Emily Heisler’s visit to the Four Courts on Tuesday, as told by the Post-Dispatch. These women, it is alleged, threatened Miss Heisler’s mother and said they would blow up her place. Mrs. Heisler keeps a boarding house at 8750 Evans avenue and many of her boarders were employed by the transit company. Prisoners Plead Not Guilty. Brennan, Northway, Schwartz and Wha- len were arranged in the Court of Criminal Correction before Judge Clark Wednesday morning on the charge of tearing upa rail- road. Each entered a plea of not guilty, and their cases were set for hearing Aug. 27. Attorney E. F. Cunningham appeared as Schwartz’ representative. Brennan and Northway had no attorney. Whalen, who has given bond, was represented by Attor- ney E. A. Noonan. Bond Fixed at $1000. Bond was fixed in each of the two cases of Brennan, Northway and Schwartz at $1000. Attorney Cunningham said: ‘‘We have been representing all union men, and will fight the case for Schwartz. Emile Zakszewski of 1503 Obear avenue, who was taken before Chiefs Campbell and Desmond Tuesday afternoon and ques- tioned, succeeded in demonstrating that he had no knowledge of the dynamite explo- sions, and he was consequently at once re- leased. Maurice Brennan Is Identified.

Davidson was taken by Detective Schmid the holdover where Brennan is held a risoner Wednesday morning. He picked im out from among a score of prisoners. He was very positive in his identification. “IT was on the rear end of car No. 5 of the Southern Electric Division of the transit company’s line,’’ said Davidson to the Post-Dispatch. “It was about 12:20 o'clock. We were running at a fair rate of speed and when we were in front of 1014 Arsenal street, there was a terrific ex- losion. I was hurled forward and fell eadfirst in the car. “Most of the windows in the car were broken and the floor was torn up for more than the length of the car. The shock was terrific. I sprang to my feet and stepped on the rear platform from which I had been thrown. “The car had not stopped when a man stepped on the rear platform where I stood. I had never seen this man before to my knowledge. But he was so close to me that I had so good a look at him that I could never forget him. “« You. I didn't get you this time,’ he said, ‘but I will get you the next time.’ “Saying this, he jumped from the car and ran away. There were some police ar- riving of the scene in a moment after this, but I could not tell them in what direction the man had gone.” LONG LOST BROTHER ROMANCE Has Been Found in Paris, a Famous Artist and Possessed With a De- sire to Pose as Napoleon. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 15.—A romance par ex- cellence has developed here, provided there be enough truth in the story to lift it from plain fiction. Twenty years ago Samuel Leopold Lan- deau, a boy with artistic yearnings, ran away from his home in Cincinnati. He nev- er communicated with his family. Two years ago the family of Dr. A. B. Whitney of this city met Samuel Leopold Landeau in the Holy Land. He was a fa- mous artist of Paris. Last December in this city he married Miss Mary Louise Whitney. The Whitneys say he told them his par- ents were dead. | Recently Miss Landeau of Cincinnati! un- dertook to locate her long lost brother. The (name of the Paris man was quickly found | when she searched among artist folk. Then, ' she learned of his marriage here, and today | she asked Dr. Whitney to investigate. He ' was only too anxious, as he ts alleged to- ' have been desirous at the time of the mar- riage to know about his son-in-law. Artists here who knew Landeau said he bore a certain resemblance to Napoleon. Even Munkacsy, who was his teacher, used to laugh about it. Landeau, they said, had a way of going into cafes, and, crossing his hat upon Sis row, of sitting there in the familiar pose of the littlc corporal, placed where passers-by would stare and murmur: “Napoleon.” 7 ALLIED ARMY SUPPOSED TO HAVE REACHED PERI 7 “ 7! -* . — > wu: 4 5] we My fiountaing vf -/Tongolia by’ bed | 3 y Os? az ee igh “’ ¢ 4 . ; . oO“, =a a- * ad te, eT 4. eee o a , $$. 2» Ye ‘g * , co A ‘6 at ip he EMO o~ - x , ‘ _ ‘ a : . oe 7 —_— ti tee Fh Cals nN St a eS. . a > - > — ~*~. ‘ | oatell no] , q' S = °% 4 om - a a ° tt x a) a oh -.

CHAFFEE AND THE BRITISH COMMANDER Washington Officials Think the Besieged Foreigners Will Be Surrendered as the First Step of China Toward Making Peace. WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.—The navy department early this morning made public a dispatch from Admiral Remey, announcing the arrival of Gen. Chaffee at Matow, the next town of importance after Ho Si Wu, which the Americans occupied with slight opposition, on the 9th inst. The date of Chaffee’s arrival at Matow is uncertain. It is taken at the navy department to mean that Matow was occupied on the llth, and that the opposi- tion was slight, both on the road and in taking the town. Matow is not a walled city and no serious opposition was expected there. It is about 11 miles by road from Matow to Ching Chia Wan, which is really the suburb of the walled city of Tung Chow and the key to the gates of Pekin. If Gen. Chaffee was at Matow on the llth it is quite possible that by today he is either in possession of Tung Chow or engaged with the Chinese army that it was thought might make a stand beh ind its walls. The allied forces should now be encamped outside the walls of Pekin, if not within the city, unless a halt was made at Tung Chow to map outa plan of action, MAY BE OUTSIDE WALLS OF PEKIN. Gen. Chaffee has been fully advised of every step taken by this government, and has been instructed to arrange for a cessation of hostilities should the Chi- nese accede to the demands of the United States that the allied forces be placed in communication with imperial troops for the rescue of the ministers. The crisis will have been reached when Chinese troops at Pekin offer armed resistance to the allied forces. Washington officials are still hoping that a truce may be effected and an al- lied force permitted to enter the city. | Upon the transmission of Conger’s message to Canton President McKin- ley decided to leave for Washington t oday to hold a cebinet meeting on Thursday. Should China accede to the demands of the United States in regard to the preliminaries for negotiations with all the powers, the American forces may advance upon Pekin under a @ag of truce. KEEPING IMPORTANT DISPATCHES SECRET. Of quite as much interest is the record of the army's advance as the specula- tion now current about the state department as to the status of diplomatic negotia- tions. The state department has thrown around these proceedings a sudden and unaccustomed veil of secrecy that is taken to presage important developments, One thing is well nigh certain, uamely, that the Conger message of yester- day which was not made public is one of a series of identical notes addressed by the beleaguered ministers to their governments. Minister Wu, who beside being the Chinese minister here also is the accredited representative of China to Spain, received along with the Conger message of yesterday a cipher message from the It was not made Sir Claude MacDonald’s dispatch to the British foreign office, evi- dently of the same vintage as the two other dispatches referred to, also was withe held irom publication. This is taken as a fair indication that negotiations of ime public there. FEAR THAT DISCLOSURE WOULD ENDANGER CONGER, The state department this morning stated that not only would the text of the Conger dispatch be kept secret, but no questions would be answered in connection with its contents. It was pointed out by the department that with the interna- tional forces practically at the gates of Pekin, any statement of Minister Conger might involve him and all of the other ministers in very serious conse- It was said, however, that the statement from London this morning, credited to a member of parliament, that negotiations were on foot at Washing- ton between the various powers, looking to a future form of government for China, was without foundation. The state department announced that no note on this subject had been exchanged between the powers CONGER MESSAGE SAYS | SITUATION IS MORE CRITICAL. - . A dispatch received yesterday by the state department from Consul Fowler, at Che Foo, was so badly mangled in transmission as to be almost undecipherte able. The cipher experts of the department worked on it last night and today. Sb far as made out the dispatch appears to contain a message from Minister Con- ger, transmitted to Che Foo by courier. The gist of the Conger message con- tained in the cablegram is that the situation in Pekin is more critical and that the” Chinese government is endeavoring to force the ministers to leave the imperial — city under Chinese escort before the arrival of the relief column. Beyond this point the dispatch is unintelligible. LONDON, Aug. 15.—The allies have almost certainly arrived at Pekin. The advjces received from the British commander at the front, dated Aug. 1, % & inh 4 tu through Rear Admiral Bruce, give reasonable assurance that the 27 miles at that ay date between the allied forces and Pekin would be traversed in four days, . *"® ae NORTH, WHEN | > ee ae ee a eee ee re Stee meet tee es eS ee é Peta A i nee Pecan a" -" en mys . y " vats ‘ : lin elles tate Ei nl act tlt ar tec he Ate ALE a 5 laa. se p> Bina be *

First Witness for Defense Thought Harrises Began the Shooting, but Was Not Positive—Other Tes- timony Ruled Out. Gpecia) to the Post-Dispatch. FARMINGTON, Mo., Aug. 15.—The 4de- fense began introducing testimony this morning at the preliminary trial of the three Dooley boys, Joe, Leslie and Bill, for the killing of Wes Harris and the wounding of two other Harris boys at the Doe Run picnic Aug. 4. Prosecuting Attorney Hensley by a dozen witnesses has sought to prove that the Doo- leys began the fight and came to the picnic for the purpose of killing off the Harris family. According to the evidence introduced by the state Wes Harris was the only one of his family who was armed. Before he was killed he shot William Dooley, the old man, and John Dooley, one of the four boys. Old man Dooley was hit three times and John twice, the evidence showing that Wes Har- ris backed away from the three remaining Dooleys pcursing their fire. Harris took refuge behind a big oak tree after being wounded three times and continued firin at Joe and Leslie Dooley, who stood behin the wagon 15 feet away, shooting at Harris. Joe Dooley during Harris’ retreat se- cured a Winchester from his wagon and brought down Harris with a bullet in the head. Bill Harris, who had not heard of the shooting, rode up on horseback. Joe and Les Dooley began firing at him. Harris turned his horse and tried to get away. Taking a Winchester from the wagon Les Dooley mounted his horse and pursued Bill Harris down hill, firing three shots from horseback. Harris tried to ride his horse across a frail footbridge that spanned a deep ditch. The horse broke through the bridge and Harris took to his feet and escaped. In the meantime the Dooleys had shot Jim and Frank Harris, who, being unarmed, had run. Both were badly wounded. Jack Matkins testifies that he was talk- ing with old man Dooley and Wes Harris ust before the shooting began and that darris said: ‘‘I’m the best man for my size at the picnic.’ Adam Keenting testifies that he met old man Dooley a few minutes before the bat- tle and the old man said that he was ex- served to have trouble. Keening saw John Jooley point a pistol at Wes Harris and fire, He then saw John Dooley shoot at Harris. Then Harris took his revolver from rm pocket and shot old man Dooley and ohn. Phil Yeager, the first witness for the de- fense, thought the Harrises began the shooting. but was not positive. Judge Gossom, counsel for the Dooleys, tried to prove by W. L. Wilkinson that Frank Harris had a revolver, but as his — was only hearsay, {t was ruled out.

SULTAN PERMITS OUTRAGES British Vice-Consul Set Upon by Kurds and When Protested to the Sultan Shows Great Indifference. TANDON, Aug. 15.—The Sultan is taking advantage of the fact that the attention of the great powers is occupied by the troubles in China to allow his Mohamme- dan Heges to indulge in one of their peri- odical onslaughts on Christians. In the early part of last week 200 Ar- menians, near Van, were massacred with- out any interference by the authorities, and the ritish vice-consul at Van, delegated by his government to inveatigate the com- licity of the Ottoman officlals in the af- air, Was set upon and fired at by the Kurds in the neighborhood of Elk. who fobbed him of his baggage, wounded his terpreter and subjected other members of his party to maltreatment.

BRIDE-TO-BE IS UNDAUNTED. STANDS FAITHFULLY BY HIM IN HIS DILEMMA. St. Louis and Clayton License Cierks Looked at Belden and Decided He Was Under the Legal Age. Albert W. Belden of this city and Miss Nellie Holt of 318 St. Louis avenue, East St. Louis, are encountering considerable difficulty in their efforts to become man and wife. They are still: searching for a kind- hearted official who will glve them a mar- riage license, although they were “turned down”’ twice in a similar mission Monday. Both Clerk Filley at the new City Hall and Clerk Wetzel at Clayton proved obdur- ate to the pleas of the young people for one of their $1 documents. They frankly told the would-be groom that they did not think he was 21. Belden and his fiancee insisted that they a a i > xe he MISS NELLIE HOLT. were both of age, and after their second repulse at Clayton left the Courthouse with the remark that they would fool the mar- riage license people vet. An element of mystery has been injected into the case by the fact that Belden gave a fictitious address in applying for the H- cense. He declared he lived at 808 South Jefferson avenue, when there happens to be no such number. The only Albert Bel- den in the directory is given as residing at 3227 Washington avenue, but at that num- ber it has been learned that the Belden family moved out of the city six months ago. The Albert Belden who resided there was a messenger. Considerably more the bride. She is young and pretty and has resided in East St. Louis six years. She and her sister lived together. The latter, Miss Maggie Holt, is now a member of the Salvation Army and she says her sister was also a member of that organization a few years ago. “For the past two months my sister has been ill in the Baptist Hospital in St. Louis,’’ she told the Post-Dispatch Tuesday morning, “but she became so homesick there recently that I brought her home. When they left here vesterday I knew they were going to try to get married and I hope they succeeded. Mr. Belden looks young, but he's 21 all right. He's just as old as I am,’ and Miss Maggie does not look over 18 at the most. is known about LATE NEWS FROM HAWAII HONOLULU, Aug. 8, via San Francisco, Aug. 15.—The United States tug Iroquois re- turned on the 6th from her special survey trip to the Midway Islands, taken to inves- tigate the practicability of locating one of the stations of the proposed Philippine ca- bles on the Midway Islands.

Jerry has, without price, guided 2000 elop- ers to the haven of bliss that they seek. In the years that he has worked in the courthouse he has never been known to miss being the first person to greet the scorners of conventionalties that flee to Clayton on marriage bent. No matter which of the four doors of the courthouse they choose to enter Jerry is there, and the elopers have a gulde. No one grieves more sincerely than Jerry when a license is refused. When the license is procured, Jerry guides the elopers to the magistrate of their choice, and waits in delight while the matrimonial bark is launched. He will accept the price of a bottle to properly christen the craft, but is not dls- gruntled if the tip is denied. Babies have been named for Judge Greens- felder, and it is said Deputy Wetzel is not forgotten, but it is not of record that any has ever been named for Jerry Curtis, the elopers’ guide.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Aug. 15.—The first session of the Anti-imperialist convention met in Tomlinson Hall at 11 o’clock this morning. Between 300 and 400 delegates were present. Besides the regular members of the league many members of the Na- tional party were present. The session was open and many visitors occupied seats in. the gallery. George G. Mercer of Phil- atielphia called the meeting to order and after prayer by Rev. Herbert 8S. Bigelow of Cincinnati, the Declaration of Independence was read by Prof. Albert H. Tolman of the University of Chicago. Edwin Burritt Smith of Chicago was selected for tempo- rary chairman and Ervin Winslow of Bos- ton and W. J. Mize of Chicago for tem- porary secretaries.

THE PASTOR WAS A POO BAH Wife’s Suit for Divorce Showed Him to Have a Diversity of Occupations, but Time to Go to Europe. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 15.—Corinne Ellis, wife of the Rev. John Ellis, pastor of the Universalist Church tn Foxboro and Mans- field, Mass., was today given $100 alimony pending her suit for divorce from her pooh bah husband. The Rev. Mr. Ellis, besides being pastor of two churches, was postmaster at Tuft, Mass., until he was removed last March: was a senior in Tuft’s College, had a laun- dry agency and was engaged in the station- ery business, had charge of a public pay telephone station, furnished his fellow stu- dents with books, and found time to take a trip to Europe. He declared in his affidavit that his en- tire income was only from $10 to $12 a week, but his wife said that it was from $1200 to $1500 a year. | west of here. had her old husband arrested, called his sanity into question and consulted lawyers with a view to a separation. Mr. Klotzbach has considerable property. The aged man was arrested Tuesday at the instance of his young wife at their home just outside the city limits, by Sheriff Kick- ham. The neighbors had heard his wife scream for help, and then she had run from the house. She had told them he was violent, and had threatened to kill her. They had gone in and restrained him by force, and held him. Mrs. Klotzbach had then re- turned to the house. The man was found to be only slightly clad and hysterical. Mrs. Klotzbach was at first opposed to his being taken away, and locked up, but finally told the sheriff to take him. He was conveyed to the jail and later released. The marriage of the couple created a sen- sation in Belleville nine years ago. Klotz- bach had a married daughter with children. 1 CHILD'S MARRIAGE TO AN AGED MAN PROVES A FAILURE. Lena Oexle, a child of poor parents, who were separated, was hired by her as a nursegirl. She was a slender, ill-nourished eri. about whom there was little to at- tract. The wife of Klotzbach had been dead only a short time. He was making his home with his daughter. His fondness for the lit- tle girl was soon noticed, but it was not re- garded seriously until he began giving her gifts. The daughter finally found it advis- able to send the child away, in the hope that the attachment of the old man for her might be broken off. It was not long before the old man went to the father of the girl and asked his con- sent to their marriage. The consent was given. But they did not find {t easy to get mar- ried. Not a justice of the peace nor a min- ister in Belleville would marry them. But the old man had plenty of money and he took the girl to Chicago and married her there and they lived there for a while, but finally returned to Belleville and went to live in one of his houses. The child developed into a woman with a rather pretty face and an attractive form. As she grew older she came to feel her con- dition keenly, but she remained with her haisband. A child who was born to them two years after their marriage, now a year-old boy, probably had much to do with — Mr. Klotzbach has considerable prop- erty. SHOT FROM AMBUSH MYSTERIOUS KILLING OF JOHN ROBBINS AT TRASK, MO. PREVIOUSLY KILLED HIS MAN. Assassin Believed to Be a Partisan of the Man Whom Robbins Had Shot to Death. MOUNTAIN GROVE, Mo., Aug. 15.—This vicinity is greatly excited over the mys- terious assassination early yesterday morning of John Robbins, a prosperous farmer wno lives near Trask, six miles The killing is undoubtedly the result of a feud which began last Jung when Robbins. the dead man, shot and killed Teonard Henderson, another farmer, in a quarrel over a dog fight. Robbins was walking along the road with his ax on his shoulder about an eighth of a mile from his home and with- in 150 feet of a fence, when a rifle shot was heard, and he yelled, staggered and fell dead about 15 feet farther on. He was shot almost in the center of the breast, about an inch from the heart. An alarm was given and neighbors soon gathered at the scene of the crime, but no trace of the murderer was found. The murder of Robbins is believed to be the outcome of a feud. About the Ist of last June John Robbins shot and killed Leonard Henderson, a neighbor farmer, as the result of a quarrel over a dog fight. At his preliminary trial he was admitted to bail, and about four weeks ago tried for murder at West Plains the jury failing to agree on a verdict. Since killing of Henderson, Robbins has always gone armed, as threats had been made against his life, TRAIN WRECKERS 9 YEARS OLD Turned a Switch and Wrecked a Train and Were Trying It Again When They Were Arrested.

SARATOGA, N. Y., Aug. 15.—The commit- tee of the revision of confession of faith ap- pointed under a resolution of the general assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Bt. Louis in May last, is in session here. As this is the first meeting of the committee its work will be, according to the secretary, the Rey. Dr. W. H. Roberts, largely prelim- inary. Its ultimate action must be based in a great measure on the recommendations of the presbyteries,comparatively few of which have taken action a& yet. The power and scope of the committee, as defined by the general assembly, ts: “To consider the whole matter of a re- statement of the doctrines most surely be- lieved among us, and which substantially are embodied,in our confession of faith. “That this committee be enjoined diligent- ly to pursue the inquiries, seeking light and knowledge from every available source and to report to the next assembly what specific — if any, should be taken by the church, “That to further the work of the commit- tee the presbyteries be invited by the assem- bly to take action On the subject at their fal] meetings and to report said action to the committee whether suggesting revisional, supplemental or substitutional changes or no change at all.” The members of the committee present ate Rev. Charles A. Dickey of Philadelphia, Rev. Herrick Johnson of Chicago, Rev. Samuel J. Niccolls of St. Louis, Rev. Dantel Fisher of Hanover, Ind., Rev. William Mc- Kibben of Cincinnati, Rev. George B.

It will add a cubit or two to your In the early ‘70s of the last century a Spacious country mansion, surrounded by trees, stood near Philadelphia. David Brew- Ster, the owner, was a member of the So- ciety of Friends and an influential citizen. He operated an extensive powder mill, and was on very friendly terms with the officers at the barracks. One of these, who was a frequent visitor at The Shrubbery, was Major Clifford, of the Royal Artillery, voung officer who was extremely zenlous in the cause of the King, and keenly on the scent for treason The smoldering fires of patriotism were be- ginning to break forth, and a single word might prove a lighted match to set.a whole town ablaze. Arn dutifully played and sang for the en- tertainment of her father's friends, but she was apt to be tired when “God Save the King’ was called for, else it did not suit her voice. : It was not so when Godfrey Weigle came to drink tea at the house, as he did about twice a week. It {s true that he never asked her to sing “God Savgthe King,” or any of those very loyal ditties that were in favor with King George's men. Godfrey was one of a score of young men comprising a secret military organization, having its rendezvous at an old meeting house on the outskirts of the town, where they were wont to meet once a week ‘“‘to hatch up treason.”’ ~~ ee 4 The Assembly did a creditable bit of work before adjourning in passing the city hospital ordinance. If some provision had been made for meeting necessary public expenses the members would have deserved the hest wishes of citizens. At it is, the city is “in a hole.’’ 7 +o o——____—_—- C P.

While his enter- prises were undertaken for the profit of Collis P. Huntington, they were all of a public nature and the entire country has | derived benefit from them incalculably great. He had the! foresight which enabled him to anticipate social development, and the intelligence and energy to realize on all the oppor- tunities which presented themselves.

It was a manly deciaration of adherence to precedent and the traditions of his family and class. But it gave no evidence that the new King has any idea of the dangerous crisis into which his country is plunged What will the new monarch do to make taxation lighter and living easier for the masses, with his ideas of ‘pros per- ity and grandeur,” which doubtless spring from the idea of militarism into which he was born? Has he any plan for making bread cheaper, by reducing the import duties which have raised wheat to $1.80 a bushel. In his hope that he will have the support of the liberal party of Italy, has he in mind any plan tor piacating the Republicans and Radicals, in- Giuding such men as D’Annunzio and Lombroso, who have been forced into opposition to the throne by the extreme mil- itarist policy of former monarchs? Time will show whether or not Italy has ae liberal mon- archy in fact as well as in theory. The new King has a splendid opportunity.

Put the mixture into the pepper, leaving room at the top of each for a small onion and a very small cucumber. Tie the tops on securely, put them in a jar and cover with cold vinegar. SIWEET POTATO PICKLE.—One peck of green tomatoes and six large onions, sliced. Sprinkle with one cupful of salt, and let them stand over night. In the morning drain.

The natural inference would be in case that “financial reasons’ would prompt a marriage ceremony by a justice ol the peace. If a young man cannot afford to pay his rector tor his services, he cannot afford to pay a justice, and therefore should not get married. The real reason that prompts large percentage of young Cath- olics who get married by a justice of the peace is that they desire or probably have good and valid reasons to seek an abso- lutely quiet or secret ceremony. And in cuch cases the importance of this question induces them to forsake their ehurch—why? ‘The laws of the Catholic Chureh require the marriage announcement to be given out at mass every Sunday for three Sundays. And only in extreme cases has the rector the right or privilege to reduce the announcement to one Sunday. That this law is right and just cannot be disputed, but what chances are there for a secret marriage within the v "| a 4. i? omer Sal how right and just the law, there are those who object to it, and nine times out of ten they find their alternative in the ‘justice of the peace.

The feature of today’s trading was the unexpected activity shown by corn. The market advanced rap- idiy and there was steady buying ail through tbe session, based on bu lish reports Little interest was shown in wheat, though epough steam was oy on to prevent it from sagging.

The Weather: Uneettled but possibly showers tonight or Thursday. The barometer is highest over the Bast Gulf states aud lowest over the Central Rocky mountain region. Hains were general in the lower lake region, lower Ohio va.ley, lowa, Cen- tral and Northern Illinois and the Dakotas. Thun- derstorms were general over the sections covered by the rain area. The temperature has changed but little during the last 24 hours. WHEAT. Influences in this market today were rather bear- ish than otherwise and only lack of speculative interest prevented a further weakening of market. Cables opened 4d lower than at yesterday's close, while domestic markets were practically unchanged. A slight advance at Liverpool caused an early gain of ‘40. Trading was desultory throughout the first half of the session. September opened at 71%c, yesterday's closing offer, and advanced in a desultory way to 71%sc, mainly on buying to cover. Leask wired from Chicago—The weather in Eng land continyes fine and ca nae are again 144 lower. The weatherin the Northwest shows little improve- ment. Various state crop reports recelved yester- day on winter wheat show wheat in excess of government report. The trade is narrow and de- pendent on wr news to sustain values at the moment. Local interest is still inclined to the lovg side, even in face of large receipts and light trade. Changing from September to October and December is growing. It looks as if the difference — September and December would go to Receipts of wheat at St. Louis today were i48.,- 978 bu, as Compare with 66.548 bu same date last — Of these, 15,878 sacks and 150 cars were ocal, compared with 4577 sacks and 70 cars same date last year. CORN. A rapid advance in the price the feature of today’s wend ooh September opened at 87c, “%AMe higher = yesterday's close Heavy buying early in the session caused a stil’ further advance, and before the end of the second hour the September option was quoted at 37%c. 1%41%c above yesterday's close. The explanation given for the rise was that there was a heavy short interest forced to cover in chang ing from September to October and Decenber. In addition to this tmportant circumstance primary receipts were light and stocks small. Jackson wired from Chicago that contract stocks there amounted to $825.000 last night, but were not half that large at the end of the first hour this morning. He said a'so that it was atated that at least 1,000,000 bu of August corn was still un- delivered. Houston wired this bit of bullish news from Kansas City to J. W. Sanford: I was in central Kansas yesterday. For the first 100 miles west of Kansas City corn will probab’y be one-half to two- thirds of a crop, but west of that and all through the central pert of the state it will not average one-fourth of a crop. Receipts of corn at St. Louls today were 34,400 bu, as compared with 609,600 bu same date last year. Of these 22 cars were local, compared with 51 cars same date ‘ast year. Corn was the most attractive market on the floor and many wheat traders fersook their own pit to trade in this cereal. Sept. later advanced to 89%%c, but as the cash bids did not keep wp with the ad- vance there was some recession. The closing was strong, le over yesterday at 38%Kc. OATS. Though an effort was made to a this grain and bids were better Gays, se'lers kept out of eight done Sept. was bid up from 2iltec to 2ilge, and Dec. from 22¢ to 22. May was held at 24c. Noyes wires J. W. nford: These oats are a safe purchase. I have seen large investment buy- ing of them lately. An exporter tells me there were good bids today and that if he had oats on the spot he could sell 800,000 bu. Receipts of oate at St. Louls today were 26,400 bu, as Compared with 33, (OO bu same date last year. Of these 20 cars were local, compared with 23 cars same date last year.

The horses going to that quarter have been of good sizes, ahapely, smooth and fat, and have weighed from 1000 to 1200 pounds. Orders have been constantly in the market during the past month for horses of this class for the Indiana trade. Native shipping pigs are very searce and near outselling anything else on the market. The Monday shipments were four carloads. E. J.

Preparations for the entertainment of the Missouri Press Association are going for- ward, and Chairman Tom L. Cannon of the ‘arraggement committee has the program | completed. Mr. Cannon says he hopes those who have |been requested to assist in the entertain- ment of the editors and their ladies will not fail to be on hand, and he desires that St. Louis redeem itself from,the charge of having neglected them in the past. The association begins its meeting on Thursday at the Laclede Hotel.

The official badge of the association this year is highly suggestive of the profession of the members. It is a blue button, signi- fying the quality of the blood that flows the Missouri editor’s veins, the design being a pair of scissors and a goosequill pen. Appended to the button is a blue rib- bon bearing the inscription, ‘‘Missourt Press Association, Guests of St. Louis, Aug. 16, 17 and 18, 1900."’ JUST LOOK AT THIS ICE AND SNOW PICTURE AND YOU'LL BE COOL YOUR PERSONAL ODOR.

ISECRET BALLOTING A FARCE. |Powerful Influences Interested in Puri- fication of the Ballot Reported Behind the Measure. Tom L. Cannon, secretary of the Manu- facturers’ Association, is authority for the statement that at the next session of the gtate Legislature there will be introduced a bill which in effect provides for an open or viva voce ballot at all elections and pri- martes in the three big cities of the state. The proposed law will provide that the names of all candidates’ of all parties shall be printed in a book, opposite a space left blank for the name, address and the name of an indorser of the voter. When the voter enters the polling place he shall give his name and address. If his vote is challenged he must find someone to indorse him. The voter’s name and address and the name and address of the indorser @re then written in the book. Opposite his name the names of all the candidates. The voter shall then announce to the clerk the names of the candi- dates for whom he wishes to vote, and they are indicated as he names them, all the balance being scratched. This is practically a return to the old sys- tem of open voting, by which the voter sim- ply called out the names of his candidates and they were tallied in the presence of all those about the polling place. It, of course, destroys the secrecy of the ballot. “This method,” said Mr. Cannon to the Post-Dispatch, “provides a free open bal- lot to every man entitled to it. Secrecy of ballot has always been used for corrupt | purposes in the cities. The law will pro- .vide that any person voting illegally or in- dorsing an illegal voter shall be guilty of *a felony. In the case of a primary it will make the use of ‘Indians’ impossible. The bill will be introduced and pushed by pow- erful influences that are interested in seeing the ballot purified in the great cities. An- other advantage of the law is that it does away with the expensive and cumbersome election machinery now necessary.’’ CITY NEWS.

LIVES IN DANGER FROM FIRE Wash Street Tenement Ablaze at an Early Hour Aroused a Thickly Settled Section. Fire in the two-story building at 507 Wash Btreet early Wednesday morning endan- g@ered the lives of many persons. ‘Prompt action on the part of Mrs. Louis Williams, who lives upstairs at the number given, prevented a serious conflagration. On all sides are tenements, each containing from five to ten families. Mrs. Williams is past 60 years of age, but possessed of rare courage. It was about 1:45 o'clock when Mrs. Will- lams was awakened by the odor of smoke in her room. She called her husband, but him pulled him out of bed and helped him down the stairway. The air quickly re- vived him. As Wililams darted from the house to a fire-alarm box Policeman Pete Nelson of the Fourth district appeared. The officer saw Williams running and commanded him to halt. Within a few feet of Williams was his aged wife, who was screaming ‘‘watch"’ at the top of her voice. Nelson drew his revolver and was about =e when he noticed a cloud of smoke m the second-story window of the house. The fire originate in the grocery of Charlies F. Morrissey, which is situated on the first floor of the building at 5v7 Wash Street. The cause is not known. ‘LIBRARY 4180 YEARS OLD Seventeen Thousand Tablets Unearth. ed by Scientific Explorers in Great Temple at Nippur.

These guards act as escorts when the boys carry messages into districts where they are likely to meet the enemy.

GAINESVILLE, Tex., Aug. 15.—Roy, the 4-year-old son of Mrs. Cora Langston, while playing along the bank of the river near this ty this morning, fell into the water and ever before. claim is made that the formation of trusts has not thrown traveling men out of em- ployment. The article in question quotes Louis Ro- sen. a manufacturer's agent, as saying that he recently met Mr. Wetmore of the firm of Wetmore & Pride, manufacturers, in the East. In the conversation which ensued, Mr. McGann of Springfield asked Mr. Wet- more how many tobacco factories were in the trust. Mr. Wetmore replied that there were 19. Mr. McGann then asked how many inde- pendent concerns had been started since the trust started. Mr. Rosen makes Mr. Wet- more say the number is 400. ‘That is absurd,’ said Mr. Kunz. ‘Mr. Wetmore or any other man cannot name six independent tobacco concerns that have started since the trust came into existence. Farther along Mr. Wetmore is made to say that instead of the trust throwing traveling men out of employment there were more men on the road selling tobacco now than This is another absurd state- ment. We claim and can prove that at least 5000 traveling men have been thrown out of employment by the formation of the tobacco trust.”’ A friend of Mr. Kunz, who did not desire the use of his name, referring to the same article, said John A. Fisher, secretary of the Western Leather Co., had been made to say that his company needed three or four men, although it is supposed to be in the trust. Mr. Kunz’s friend said he had been in the leather trade and recently, be- ing out of employment, went to see Mr. Fisher about getting a position. ‘‘He asked me if knew leather. I told him I had been in the business as a side line, but had more regently been in the to- bacco business. He told me I would better stick to the tobacco business, as there was no chance in his line. He said he had men in his employ who had been with him three and four years who were making only $40 and $50 a month.”’ HE WANTED TO GET MARRIED Judge Pollard Thought This ‘‘a Bid Sign’? and So He Had Sam Welch Locked Up. and penniless, Sam Welch drifted into St. Louis a few days ago in search of a girl who would marry him. He appeared at the office of Justice Pollard, Twenty-ninth and Olive streets, Tuesday and demanded that the justice find a youn girl for him to marry. His actions led the justice to believe Welch was mentally un- balanced, and Officer Morris was calied, The ,0liceman sent Welch to the City Hospital fos observation. At the hospital Wednesday Welch stated that he is a teamster, and had come to St. Louis to seek employment. I want to get married,’ he said, ‘and I am not particular who the young lady is if she is a good and pretty girl. I guess I won't be able to get a girl as long as they keep me in here.’ WENT TO SLEEP ON THE ROOF Homeless | Theodore Bosse Sought Relief From ths Heat and Then Fell Twenty Feet to the Pavement.

UNION MADE, a —— TWO WOMEN, EACH CLAIMING TO BE DEAD MILLIONAIRE’S WIF™*. LIVED OPENLY WITH BOTH. His Father and One of the Wives Knew of the Other’s Existence and a Big Lawsuit Is Expected. DETROIT, Mich., Aug. 15.—Did the late millionaire George H. Ward have two wives and did he live a double life? These questions will probably only be an- | swered after a long lawsuit. The appearance here yesterday of a young woman who claimed to be the widow of the | THERE WAS But Little Freddie Moehlmann W1ik- (evidence that his boy was drowned. CRAPE ON A DOOR ‘ ed in Whistling and Grief Was Transformed Into Joy. Mrs. Frederick Moehlmann of 2127 Balis- ! bury street mourned Tuesday the death of her son Fred, aged 13 years, whom she be- lieved had been drowned in the river, when the boy walked into the room. The whistle died on his lips when he saw the crepe on the door. When he learned that the mourning was for him he won- dered, while the family rejoiced. , Freddie started the trouble Sunday by staying away from home. His (father searched on the river bank while the naked boy, who had been swimming, watched pro- ceedings from a friendly bush. Mr. Moehi- mann found the boy's clothes. Mr. Moehimann accepted the clothes as rs. Moehlmann identified a body at the morgue as that of her son. Freddie's tnopportune vented a fine funeral.

Two women, their husband, have turned up. Both are known to different people as the wife of Ward, ex-president of the Detroit Board of Trade, formerly a millionaire brokey here and more recently a well-to-do breker in New York City. The’ woman who turned up whose maiden name was Ada Mary Lavoy, was known to sundry people both here and. in New York as the wife of the broker, and, according to Ben Falk, a weil-Known horse- man, has been recognized as his wife both here and in New York for years. Falk sald that he knew Ward intimately , and that he had frequently met and dined with him and Ada Mary Lavoy Ward, both in Detroit and New York. The other Mrs. Ward was a Detroit girl, | whose maiden name was Minnie Coffey. She j|was Known to many of the best families ias Mrs. George H. Ward during the broker's i} successful | Mackinac spending the summer. life here, and she is now at A very peculiar fact about this double life is that each woman had a child born after Ward's death last November, and the child of Minnie Coffey Ward is now burted at Battle Creek, while Ada Mary Lavoy Ward still has her chiid with her. The former woman, who is best known here, very evidently knows of the existence of the other, because, today, when about the latter, she sald: if | see her I'll choke her!’ It appears, also, that J. M. Ward, father of the late George H., knew about this double life, as he told Minnie Coffey Ward not to trouble about the mgt- ter. and he would settle it. Ada Mary Ward was with the late George H. at the tirmie of his death tn a New York ‘hospital, where he was being operated upon Mrs. Minnie Coffey Ward for apperudicitis. When Ward died was not with him then. ‘his brother Frank took all the property, in- cluding some of Mrs. Lavoy Wards money, | and has made no accounting to her. The police here believe that Mrs. Lavoy Ward was, at least, the common law wife of the late broker. A maze of mystery surrounds the case. NEPHEW HURRYING EAST. — C. P.
