Bpecia! to the Post-Dispatch CHICAGO, Aug. 16.- Kimonos, Geishas and’ perfumed capsules, emittine strange odors, formed the main subject of discus- Sion at the first hearing of this morning's testimony in the trial of Arthur Wallie Pat- terson of the Chicago Board of Trade and Mrs. Sue L. Ustick of 5505 Bartmer avenue, St. Louis, before Justice Kverett. Mr. Patterson and Mrs. Ustick were ar- rested two weeks ago on a charge of living unlawfully together. The flat in which they were found the night of their arrest, was fitted up in Oriental splendor, and many of the fur- nishings had been especially made by Pat- ' terson’s order. | Silk Bath Robe Produced. The Japanese silk bathrobe worn by Pat- ferson the night of the arrest was the cause of much excited argument between Attorney Frank ‘Walker, representing the prosecution, which is said to have been in- Stigated by Edward T. Ustick, the husband of one of the defendants, and Attorney Todd of the defense. Constable Charles E. Turk, who assisted in serving the warrants on Patterson and Mrs. Ustick. was the first witness called _ this morning. He said he called at the , Wabash avenue flat and found Patterson at- tired unly in a loose flowing gown or bath- robe. He had a revolver in his hand, but MRS. SUE L. USTICK. was induced to put it away. Mrs. Ustick VOTH WARST THE UNITED STATES WILL i BURGLIR AGREE TO A TRUGE AT PEKIN — A Desperate Encounter in a IF THE EN VOYS SO DECIDE. Dark Room. D.

In the Desperate Encounter J. R. Bird Was Frightfully Lacerated and His Wounds Are Dangerous. CHICAGO, Aug. 16.—For over an hour the darkness of yesterday morning J. R. Bird of 5129 Wabash avenue struggled for his life with a ferocious brindle bull dog trained by burglars to assist them in their operations. With arms bitten until thd flesh hung in folds, with fingers chewed and finger nails torn from their sockets, his length measured on the ground, Bird fought the apparently unequal contest to a finish. With his right hand on the upper jaw and his left hand on the lower, the brute wriggling and twisting with all its strength, there came a time when it seemed to the man the dog would prove the mas- ter and lock his jaws fatally in his throat. It was not quite 2 o'clock in the morning when Mr. Bird heard strange noises in his back yard. He informed his wife he be- lieved there were burglars trying to gain an entrance to the house. He decided to scare them off, despite his wife's protests. Re- volver in hand, he started after the in- truders. Bird looked about carefully and saw no one. Suddenly, like a shot from a gun, a figure bounded at him, striking him with a force that nearly felled him to the ground. He threw up his drm as a guard for his face, and into it sank the sharp teeth of the bulldog, without a growl or sound of any sort. As the dog loosed his grip Bird caught the animal’s lower jaw with one hand and held firmly to it. Finally he freed his arm and with his other hand took tight hold of the upper jaw. He was holding the dog in the air. Seeing this put him at a disadvantage, Bird dropped to the ground, falling as heav- ily as he could upon the animal. There they lay, the dog struggling and time and again getting his jaws together in shape to crunch the fingers and hands of his combatant. Over and over they rolled in the mad fight for mastery. First one on top, then the other. He fought the dog in dog fashion. Ile took the brute’s nose in his teeth, plant- ed his jaws firmly and thereafter the dog lost strength rapidly. That was the reason Bird did not answer the calls of his family. Finally neighbors, clad only in their night clothing, hastened to the scene armed with revolvers, rifles, shotguns and all manner of weapons. When they saw it was a brindle bulldog, not a burglar, with which to tie his legs. When he securely bound Bird released his hold. Both arms were bitten frightfully from elbow to wrist, finger nails are missing in their entirety, and the fingers and hands are gnawed and chewed in a horrible manner. The dog was taken to the Fiftieth Street Station, where, a few hours later, he vir- tually committed suicide by hanging him- self in his cell with the rope with which he was tied. The theory of Capt. Madden and Mr. Bird is that the dog was trained by burglars. who were attempting to rob Bird's They escaped when Bird appeared, but the dog showed fight. FUNDS FOR BATH HOUSES Large Number of Drownings in the River a Warning to the City Authorities. Harbor Commissioner Henry Alt is a be- liever in a system of public bathhouses along the river front, and says he would geek to make provisions for such places it there were any fund which could be drawn upon to pay their cost. He says he would use some of the funds f his own department for that purpose it e were satisfied of his authority for doing 0. ; Pils reason for thinking this innovation desirable is the large number of drawnings which have occurred in the past few weeks, mostly of men and boys who were bathing in the Mississippi river. in was house they found a rope.

But she may have one short leg, as the bone between the knee and hip was broken. Little Blanche is the daughter of George Daschmann of 818 Morgan street. Wednes- day night she crawled into her father’s bed, saying: “I’m doin’ to sleep with papa.,”’ The bed stood near a front window. To prevent the baby from falling out, Mr. Daschmann closed and hooked the window blinds. About 6 o'clock, the time when most little tots want to wake up, the father was in deep slumber. He was not aroused when the little girl opened her eyes and looked around the room, cooing and clap- ping her chubby hands. The baby’s eyes were attracted to the closed shutters. She crawled to them, un- hooked and pushed them open. The shut- ters were opened while the baby was press- ing against them with all her strength, with the result that she fell from the win- dow. Mr. Daschmann opened his eyes just in time to see the baby plunge headfirst to- ward the ground. He sprang from bed and ran to the street. A passerby had picked up the little girl. He had seen her hurled through space to the sidewalk and declared that she turned over several times and fell in a sitting po- sition. A hasty examination disclosed the fact that one of little Blanche’s legs hung limp. An ambulance was summoned and the baby was taken to the City Hospital.

Chief of Police Campbell and Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Johnson have united in a determination to suppress certain pic- tures that are publicly displayed and that are considered improper and immoral. These officials held a conference Thurs- day morning relative to slot machines and this determination is the outgrowth of the conference. Chief Campbell announced Wednesday in the Post-Dispatch that he would not cease his warfare on the slot machines until the machines were taken from the city or were destroyed. Now he declares that & will go still further. “Another form of slot machines that I consider ever more demoralizing than these gambling devices,’’ said the chief, “are these slot machine pictures that are dis- played in certain summer gardens and in many saloons. “This matter has been called to my at- ‘tention within the past few days, and 1! will have special officers to investigate at once with a view to making cases against the persons who allow these pictures to be exhibited on their premises. In several places I am told there are a number of these machines called kinetoscopes. These ‘mov- ing picture’ machines are said to be so highly suggestive that they come under the ban of the law. “Tl have talked with Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Johnson and he tells me that if we oan lay before him evidence to show that any of the pictures are immoral he will issue warrants for the arrest of the ex- hibitors.”’ HE TOOK 10 — RELIGION Pious Convert Also Succeeded in Tak- ing 50 of the Silver Candelabras From the Church Altar. Special to the Post-Dispatch. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. 16.—‘‘Peace be with you,’’ said the father confessor to Jo- seph O’Brien every morning when he left the confessional at the Cathedral of the Assumption, and every morning that new convert would reply: ‘‘I’'m doing mv best, father, I'm doing my best.’"’ He was doting his best, as the priest agreed when he missed a silver statue of the Peter and 50 candle sticks from the big altar. It required just two weeks to make the collection, as O’Brien con- fessed to the detectives after his arrest. — The thief was formerly a clerk in a big clothing store, but he developed such ‘‘tak- ing’ ways that his employers felt they could not employ a detective to watch Then he was to drink and after his money gone took to religton.

This kept up for a long period and time and again have resolved that I posi- tively would drink no more coffee, but alas, the rest of the family used it, and, like the reformed drunkard who smells whisky and falls again, when I smelled coftee, I could not resist it. “Finally we came to try Postum Food Coffee and my trouble was over at once. There I -had my favorite beverage—a crisp, dark brown, rich coffee, with a fine pungent coffee taste, and yet. with no sour stomach or nervous troubles after it. On the contrary, 1 have gained grad- ually in strength and sturdy health. All who have spoken to me about Postum agree, and we have found it so, that the directions for making must be followed, and it must be boiled at least fifteen min- utes, or more, and it also requires the addition of good cream. We have tried boiling it a few minutes when in a special hurry, but found it insipid and unsatis- factory, whereas by proper boiling, it is dark and rich, with a delightful flavor. “Dr. MeMillan of Sunbeam, IIl., said he had used Postum and found it to be just as good as coffee, and more health- ful. He is an M. D. of fine standing. Mr. David Strong and sister have leit off coffee and are using Postum. They find it much more healthful. Rev. W. T. Campbell, pastor of the Second United i esheterten Church of this city, says: ‘You may say anything good that you wish, about Postum Food Coffee and | wil] substantiate it.’ He was a very great lover of cotfee and yet found it very in- jurious to his health. He now drinks Pestum three times a day and the old troubles have disappeared. ‘“] shrink trom having my name appear in public. The statement I have given you is truthful, and I hope will aid some people to discover that coffee is the cause of their aches and ails, and they are ina way to get rid of their troubles by leaving off coffee and taking up Postum Food Coffee.” This lady lives at Monmouth, III., and her name can be given by letter, “aon application to the Pogtum Cereal Co., Se makers of Postum, at Battle Creek, Mic fget it and open it, which would cause trou- SIDNEY Wail TICO LS HIS TRIALS Hunted By Neighbors With Dogs, Is Now a Prisoner. SAYS HE IS PERSECUTED. WIFE’S FAMILY HAS HARRASS#S»D HIM UNTIL HE IS CRAZY. Every Means Possible Used to Cause Separation, All Leading Up to His Attempt to Kill Wife and Shoot- ing of Her Sister. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PANA, Ill, Aug. 16.—Sidney Whittico, the man who attempted to kill his wife and who dangerously wounded his sister-in-law, Miss Maggie Brennan, near Edinburg Sun- day morning, was captured last night north of this city. A posse of 500 have been on his trial since the crime was committed. He is now under guard in the Taylorville jail. Whittico has made and signed the follow- ing confession: ‘My name is Sidney Whittico. think it is best to tell it straight, I will begin at the first and tell it all. The Brennans are wealthy people while I am a poor man. I was a barber at the time we were married. After we were married they were prejudiced and tried to get her to leave me and they drove me mad. “I was crazy. I’m crazy now. I want to say right here that I have been a good, faithful and true husband and she has never wanted for anything. I wanted to leave the night before we married, but they threatened to have me arrested if I attempted to get away. 1 had to leave my home, my mother, my father, my brother and my sisters, for after I married this girl they would not let me come around. “We lived in the country about. two miles from ner father's place since the 6th of last April. One of her sisters wanted her to leave me and wrote me a letter and signed another’s girls name to it. She wrote the letter at a time when I was not at home and she knew that my wife would If you ble “One week ago last Monday my wife and her father and I went to Springfield, where I went to secure work. I secured a posi- tion with the extra gang on the railroad. “They returned to my house, where they said they would stay until Saturday. I went out to work Tuesday morning, but they laid off a lot of men, and they would not put me to work; so I went back home. “When I returned home my wife had gone out to collect some money that was com- ing to me. When she came in we spoke to each other She went out to get a drink and the first thing I knew she was going down the road in a buggy with her little brother. “I could not understand what had hap- pened and I went to my father-in-law’s house and asked her what was the matter with her. She informed me that she had received a letter from another girl, and that was the reason she left me. I helped them load up her things and take them home and then went back to Springfield Tuesday night. “I stayed in Springfield until Saturday night. I was crazy. walked out to the Drennan home and arrived there about 6 o'clock Sunday morning. My intention then was to kill my wife, and then kill myself. She was sitting in the window when 1 went up and ne gtk the revolver at her twice, but it would not go off. “They both saw me and started to run, and as they went through the door I shot my sister-in-law, and I am sorry for it, for she is the best one in the family. After I shot I ran Into the house, and mv wife ran into the parlor and locked the door, and I could not get to her. “I want to say that I never exchanged a shot with any of the farmers. The loads in the gun were no good. I tried to shoot my- self with it, but failed. I then went down on the river, where there were some fish- ermen, and from there I went to Springfield and tried to buy something to kill myself, but the druggist would not sell me any- thing. I then concluded to get away if I could. “I then came to Clinton after I left Springfield. I was in no cornfield, as the papers say.

POVERTY - — —_ Beven Years After Her Elopement With Bruce Hoadley, Pretty Mrs. Hoadley Is Going Back Pen- niless to Her Mother at Buffalo, N. Y. Grace Martin, then only 14 years old, and the prettiest girl in her block, left a luxu- rious home in Buffalo, N. Y., seven years @go to marry Bruce Hoadley, whom her parents did not admire. The sacrifice, she says, was ill requited, for today she Is a supplicant for charity at Union Station, her husband having left her and her two little children. Mrs. Hoadley, the traces of her former beauty still in her face, is temporarily under the protection of Matron Hunter. She ar- rived in St. Louls Wednesday night from Beatrice, Neb., whither her husband took her after their elopement and the refusal of her parefits to forgive them. ith her are her two boys, Bruce, Jr., aged 6 years, and Howard, 3 years younger. She wishes to go to the home of her mother in Buffalo. Three weeks ago, according to her story, her husband left their home in Beatrice without saying where he was going. She has not heard from him since. He left her a little money, and, as she saw the meager supply dwindle to smaller proportions each day, she decided to start on her way to Buffalo, trusting to the kind- ness of strangers to help her on her way. She counted her money—there was just $5.15. The station agent at Beatrice secured her a half- fare ticket to St. Louis for $5. When she boarded the train to begin her journey, she had just 15 cents. She spent that for lunch for her children, and went hungry herself. When she arrived in St. Louis she was omnes a IN MIDST OF - a el Mrs. Elizabeth Fowler of Tyler, Tex., Stranded at Union Station While on Her Way With Her Two Children to Relatives in Chicago. Mrs. Elizabeth Fowler, traveling from Tyler, Tex., to Chicago, knows what it 1s to be alone tn a strange place without friends or money. She is stranded at Union Station with her two children. Mrs. Fowler has been living in Tyler for several years, but recently decided to go to the home of her relatives in Chicago. She drew her little hoard of money from its hiding place and found she had just enough to take her to 8t. Louts. She had read in the papers that the people of St. Louis were kind to stranded travelers, and believed that !f she could only reach this city she would be able to get sufficient funds to go on to Chicago. She packed up her little belongings, gathered her children about her and started for St. Louis. But, upon her arrival at Union Station Wednesday night, she was stunned with dis- appointment. When she related her story to Matron Hunter and asked for aid to continue her journey, she was informed that the fund for stranded travelers was ex- hausted., Matron Hunter procured food for them and had some cots placed in the women’s waiting room for them. Mrs. Fowler says her relatives in Chicago are in good circumstances and that they would send her aid if she could but get word to them of her condition. CASTELLANE “BROKE” SUMMER HOME OF ANNA GOULD’S HUSBAND TO BE SOLD. CREDITORS PRESSING HIM. Countess Has Shut Her Purse to Him But Continues Lavish Expendi- tures on Her Own Behalf. PARIS, Aug. 16.—The country home of Count Bont de Castellane is about to be sold for debt. The count is in serious financial difficulties. ‘The countess, nee Anna Gould, is appar- ently not distressing herself over the wor- ries of her titled spouse. In the village of St. Cheron, 30 miles from Paris, staring placards on every dead wall announce that the contents of the beautiful Chateau de Marais, the country home of the Castellanes, will be sold for the benefit of the count’s creditors. Included in the sale will be furniture, horses, carriages and the valuable contents of the wine cellar. All Paris will be there when the auctioneer mounts his block. The count has several times of late been forced to take extreme measures to raise funds, and has parted with many valued family relics. A magnificent wardrobe, costing $250,000, was sold to M. Chaffeyon, a Parisian art dealer. Some of the art collection in the palace on the Bois de Boulogne was turned over to J. Pierpont Morgan. In spite of these sales, the count’s yacht, Walhalla, was recently attached by the builders for $175,000. The count has obtained sundry ape from bankers in Paris, which have helped him a great deal. It is declared that the Countess, formerly Miss Anna Gould, has tired of putting up money for the Count, and that her purse strings will not ‘be again relaxed. This was stated by Figaro in a recent issue. Figaro's declaration is also borne out by the fact that, notwithstanding the Count’s strait- ened circumstances, the Countess goes on scattering her money with a lavish hand. Besides the Countess’ donations to charit- ty, she has recently made a gift to the clty of Paris which will perpetuate her name for many decades. This gift is a beautiful building to take the place of the Charite Bazar. which burned in 1897, with a loss of 125 lives. The French government has also con- ferred a distinct honor upon the Countess and her husband by designating them as the entertainers of the Emperor of Abvs- sinfa, Menelik, when he visits the exposi- tion. If it was thought the Countess had no money she would not have been se- lected. me eee eS ee CHARGED WITH BRIBERY. Two Aldermen ete ¢ a Colorado Town Under Arrest.

Condemned to Penal Servitude for Life —Pardon Is Asked Because of His Splendid Military Record. LONDON, Aug. 16.—The Prince of Wales has interceded with the (Jueen for the par- don of ex-Maj. Kenneth Murchison of the Royal Artillery, condemned to penal netvi- tude for life. The offense for: which Murchison, who belongs to one of the best families of Scot- land, was condemned to perpetual imprison- ment was the killing of a newspaper corre- spondent named Parslow durimg the siege of Mafeking, under circumstances of great provocation. Parslow, while drunk, grossly insulted the major at the table d’hote at Riesle’s Hotel, and followed him across the square continuing to revile him, challenging him to fight and accusing him of cowardice. No one witnessed the actual killing, but Murch- ison says the journalist raised his hand to strike him, whereupon he shot him dead. Everywhere on the continent of Europe action of this kind would have met with the approval of the military authorities, but Murchison was sentenced by court-martial to death as a murderer, his sentence being commuted to penal servitude for life. In a largely signed petition to the Queen, Stress is laid on the fact that although Murchison had retired from the army, at the time of the outbreak of the war he responded to the call for volunteers, that he behaved with conspicuous Oppel $d during the greater part of the Mafeking siege, being in command of the artillery, to which the town was mainly indebted for its defense, and that when the Boer commander Eloff captured the fort in which Murchison was confined after the court-martial had sentenced him to death, he made no attempt to take advantage of the confusion to escape, but seized a rifle and led the attack on the Boers, which culminated in their surrender, after which he laid aside his rifle and returned of his own free will to his prison cell. Had it not been for his killing of the drunken journalist he would have doubtless received military promotion, as well as the Order of the Bath, for his services, and under the circumstances the success of the petition to the crown on his behalf is prac- tically assured, the Prince of Wales having warmly interested himself in the case. -o- — JOHN W.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.—Numerous ad- ditions. than those ordained by European Asiatic potentates, are being made to diplomatic corps resident at the Amer- capital. young strangers have made their appearance in the families of South American envoys and both are daughters, perhaps to strike a balance with sons who recently arrived households. and the ican Two the two young in Turkish and Chinese Senora Dona Ines Garmendia Infante, wife of Senor Don Eliodoro Infante, first secretary of the Chilian legation, received her tiny visitor yesterday, and Senora Assis-Brazil, wife of the Brazillan minister, welcomed hers last Saturday. The Chilian legation will, according to the | whispers of friends, soon welcome another | guest. The wife of the minister, Senor Vicuna, is the favored mortal of whom these things are told. The stork is also hovering over the home of Senor Calvo, the Costa Kican minister. The young son of the Turkish minister is thriving, and preparations are now in prog- ress for an important feature of his life. This is the casting of his horoscope by the chief star gazer of Constantinople, and the father, Ali Ferrough Bey, is most anxious to hear the result. The little one was born in this city on July 4 and the Turkish minister wonders what the future may not have in store for the scion of a Turkish nobleman, who will give allegiance to one of the oldest empires in the world, who was | born in the greatest republic in the world | and on the anniversary of the signing of | the Declaration of Independence Sheng Ming. the son of the Chinese first secretary, Shen Tung, prospers mightily “Shen Ming’’ means literally “‘Baby” or “Young” Shen.

With the money in hand, $258,000, a good beginning can be made. The buildings which can be erected will accommodate about 300 patients, about one-half the capacity of the present dilapidated and dangerous hospital. When more money is obtained—as it can be soon, if ordinary business economy is practiced—the work will be pushed to completion. St. Louis may well be congratulated. A new hospital has been needed for years. That we are to have it at last is an indication that boodle sometimes graciously relaxes its hold upon public affairs. —_-> > + Thé silence of Mr. Thomas Brackett Reed is getting intol- erably noisy. > A in SMALL WAISTS AND SMALL FEET, Mme. Wu, wife of the Chinese minster at Washington, is as interesting as her husband. Like him, she has views on the woman question. “Chinese women earnest, she says. “They not spend time making their hair crooked on irons, making their waists grmall, making their dresses full of frills and changing all time. Chinese women not strive for how to look, but how to be. You not understand our ways. You not like some—about thé marriage. But it is better. You think it hard. It is wisdom.” It all depends upon the point of view—small waists or small feet. The American woman who belittles her waist can’t breathe comfortably. The Chinese woman who belittles her feet cannot walk at all. Which is the better custom? However that may be, Mme. Wu and her countrymen and Women will have to learn from the West. The barriers be- tween China and the outside world must be sooner or later shot away if they are not peacefully taken down. When the two civilizations come face to face, the Chinese will com- pare, practically, the advantages of forks and chopsticks. And let not the people of the West imagine that they can learn nothing from the Orientals. There is, no doubt, much wisdom hidden behind the great wall. = = ——, a a The anarchists killed Humbert, but they cannot kill the King. He never dies.

But what of the indecent picture machines? They are to be found in public places well known to the police authorities, Why are they left to do their immoral work? The gambling slot machines cause financial loss and foster improvidence and recklessness. The indecent slot machines @re a constant menace to the young and innocent. They are @ disgrace to the community. The law providing for their destruction was cited by a Post-Dispatch correspondent, who voiced the public sentiment against this nuisance, a few days ago. The police know of that law. Why is it not enforced? ~.oe Why not leave the evolving of men’s shirtwaists to the la- dies? The brain that wrought out the lace guimpe is equal to this emergency. a A COMFORT FOR YOUNGER SONS, The big family is nat obsolete fn America. For the com- fort of younger members of such families, the story of the late Collis P. Huntington, told in Tuesday's Post-Dispatch, is worth reading. Mr. Huntington was the fifth son in a big family. Where are the rest of the children with whom he had to compete for an education and a chance of advancement in life? Martin Luther is another example of one nfiember of a nu- merous family of children achieving success in spite of the obstacles that stand in the way of a child born under such conditions. And there have been many others. We have no law or custom that favors first born or elder Sons and daughters, yet it is well known that these have many advantages over the younger members of a family. But the capacity for tireless effort is a habit that can be acquired by individuals who are handicapped by conditions. Hunting- ton acquired it. And it wus a potent factor in his wonderful success. ¢e-- p---- i Owing to Inck of funds work on the new City Hall has been suspended. There is no money in the treasury for public work, but private snaps are still doing a thriving trade. aie A creenmsteanteinatineies A QUESTION OF DOLLARS AND CENTS Mstimates given out by the Treasury Department fix the cost to date of the Philippine war at $186,678,000. This covera the period since Feb, 6, 1899, when the so-called insurrection broke out. As a mere commercial undertaking the Phillppine enterprise ig not profitable. The enormous cost acknowledged in this es- timate is not balanced by a single advantage. American trade in the archipelago has not yet even begun. After taking out the liquor business and deducting the values of military sup- plies there is nothing to show that our commerce has been augmented a dollar's worth by the American occupation. If the end of the war were in sight there might be ground for hope that the resources of the islands might be exploited for the benefit of Americans. But all accounts now agree that the struggle will probably continue indefinitely, and the cost will not diminish but rather grow greater. Thus, as @ commerical preposition, the venture is not de- 15 cents | fénsible. Putting aside all questions of sentiment anda princl- ple and thinking only of dollars and cents, where is the profit in this enterprise? The Treasury statement is a telling argument against the administration policy. hp. Lp > — SS |S Since Queen Victoria ascended the throne of the United Kingdom England has fought 40 wars. All of these, save the Crimean war and the Sepoy horror, were of little import- ance from a military point of view. But all were undertaken to preserve or extend the colonial empire. And the difficulty and cost of empire becomes greater every year. Dominion over seas has, perhaps, paid England commercially, but it may be questioned whether the loss will not, in future, be greater than the profit. At any rate it is a consideration which should not be overlooked in this country. Jefferson’s rulé that no ter- ritory should be acquired which must be defended by a navy still holds good. —________ #0 -— A BETTER OUTLOOK. The first indication of a settled policy with reference to China is found in the exclusive London cable to the Post- Dispatch from Mr. Pritchard Morgan. As Mr. Morgan is a member of the British Parliament and heavily interested financially in Chinese development, his out- line of the scheme has much of the force of an official utter- ance. “China,” says Mr. Morgan, ‘“‘can only be governed by the Chinese. This fact is now recognized by all of the European powers.,”’ To this end the administration will be committed to 10 native viceroys under the direction of a European. How this will work remains to be seen, but a formulated policy of any kind is better than the game of cross purposes which has been going on for years. This dispatch is the most reassuring intelligence received since the Boxer troubles began. The whole world will breathe easier when it is known that unity has taken the place of dissension and jealousy. ——— ee Michigan needs the block system on her railroads, as well as other Western States.

The weather was very hot-_and the judge removed his wig, inviting the lawyers present to do likewise. Immedi- ately the room was filled with bald heads. Strange as it may appear, lightning did not fall from heaven. The proceedings went on without celestial intervention. , But they were only common law lawyers. When the equity judge heard of it he followed the new precedent, but the equity lawyers dared not depart from the good old ways. Nevertheless the incident was not lost.

Coats are comparatively modern. They can with propriety be dis- pensed with.on hot days. But don’t forget that suspenders go with them. No coat, no gallus.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In the “children’s department” of a late issue of Mind, a magazine of considerable literary merit, I find a beautiful little poem, entitled “The Waif's Wish,” in which the writer pictures, in the language of the “tot,” a child's wish to get away from the great city into the country An’ roam through th’ woods an’ meadows, an’ swim in th’ muddy creek. After depicting all of the variations of this very natural desire on the part of @ poor child of the slums of a great city, the poet, with an evident purpose to impress upon the minds of his readers the idea that the conditions which force so many to dwell in the poorer quarters of our great cities and, in fact, bad conditions poneney are fatural and, therefore, we should not complain, because God ts the author, closes his littke gem with these words: But God made th’ pretty flowers an’ th’ birds an’ th’ bees ez well, An’ God made th’ great big cities, an’ sorted us out to dwell— Some in th’ city’s casties, an’ some in th’ city’s streets, some in th’ beautiful country, where th’ world an’ heaven meets. No amount of subterfuge wrapped pretty verse will serve to excuse the viors of society’’ and the people at from the wanton disregard of God's in the administration of government. Another poet has told us that: Sinshine and breezes and gladsome flowers Are o'er the earth spread wide, And the good God gave these gifts to men, To men who on earth abide Not some men, not the few who monope- lize the earth's surface and by this means control not only the sources of all weal but the masses of the people who peed that wealth as we!l!, but “Men’’—all me L.

Well-Known Business Man and Mem- ber of the Elks Brought Home From New York City. Thomas K. Stanley, residing at 3661 Shen- @ndoah avenue, was removed to the Insane Asylum Thursday morning from the City Hospital. Mr. Stanley arrived at Union Station on Wednesday night from New York, and was taken direct to the hospital. He had gone to New York to purchase goods for his em- ployers. While at the Stewart House in New York he was suddenly attacked. He was removed to a private sanitarium at River Cresse, where he remained until Tues- day. Mr. Stanley being a prominent Elk, was ared for in New York by Ben Heller, a eading Elk, and others. While his mind is not yet clear, Mr. Stanley is much improved and at the hos- pital Thursday morning he was able to speak of his affliction. He stated that he was enjoying a drink at the Stewart House bar when suddenly he became bewildered. He does not know to what he can at- tribute his condition, but suspects that a@rugs may have been used. The excessive heat, he declares, also have affected him.

The train bearing the body from Edgebrook to Union Station was met by delegations from the Loyal legion and Frank P. Blair Post, No. 1, G. A. R., which accompanied the body to the National Cemetery. Col. Browne, who was 69 years old, had called St. Louis home for nearly half a century. He died last Tuesday, after a short but painful illness at his residence in Edgebrook. The dead veteran was born in Lan- cashire, England, but came to this country in early life and settled in St. Louis be- fore the civil war. In April, 1861, he en- listed as a private in the First Missouri. He completed the short term of service under the first call for volunteers on Jan. 1, 1862, became captain of the Twenty-third Regiment of Missouri Infantry, being pro- moted to major of the regiment Jan. 4, 1844, and to lieutenant-colonel for meritori- ous services March 23, 1864.

NEGRO ATTEMPTED ASSAULT. MINA SLEVIN WAS IN GRAVFST DANGER. August Diehr Went to Her Resuce With a Ball Bat and Nearly Kil'ed the Assailant, Jack Clair. Jack Clair, a negro, 37 years old, is ina dying condition in the city jail at Bt. Charles, with a charge against him of atl- tempting an assault on Mina Slevin, 17 years old, employed as a domestic in the Commercial hotel. The negro’s condition is the result of a desperate encounter with August Diehr, the propfietor of the hotel, who went to the rescue of the girl with a baseball bat. Clair was armed with a knife, and when Mr. Diehr approached drew it and attempt- ed to kill the brave hotel man. Mr. Diehr gave hin®no chance to use the knife, and struck with all his strength on the head. Clair has 2 bad record and has freqgu:at- ly been in trouble. Ile was employed is a hostler at Dierker's :lvery stable. The Cona- mercial Hotel is next to the stable on Main street. Mina Slevin ‘s a country girl, the daugh- ter of a widow iiving eight miles norin of St. Charles. Some months ago she accepted employment at the hotel. Soon afterward the negro began speaking to her, and final- ly offered to buy her a dress. She did not divine the true meaning of his advances. but was suspicious and told Mrs. Diehr about them. Mrs. Diehr warned her to have nothing to do with Clair. Wednesday night Miss Slevin went to the rear yard of the hotel. She says the negro seized her. She screamed. Proprietor Diehr of the hotel heard her screams and ran out to the yard. On the way he stumbled over a bal! bat which hls son had left there. Having no other weapon he picked it up and ran toward where in the darkness he dimly discerned the forms of the negro and the girl, she struggling in his grasp. When Clair heard his ~ oie he re- leased the girl and reached for his knife. Drawing it, he made toward Mr. Diehr. The latter did not hesitate, but ran on, and when within reach raised the bat and dealt the negro a heavy blow on the head, Clair went down like a dead man. Mr. Diehr led the girl into the house and called up the coroner over the telephone, relating the circumstances and saying he thought he had killed the negro. When officers arrived it was found the negro had crept away, the trail of blood showing that he was badly injured. Thursday morning he was arrested in Frenchtown by Officers Becker and Bred- enstein, and was locked in the city jail He was delirious and Dr. John E. Bruere was called. He found the skull badly actured and said the negro was in a angerous condition and might not sur- ve. The affair was kept quiet Wednesday ight, as it was feared an attempt might made to do violence to the negro. e girl has identified him and a charge of attempted assault has been placed nst him.

WOULD LIMIT INDEBTEDNESS. PATTERNING AFTER THE TEXAS MOVEMENT. An Amendment to the Constitution Will Be Advocated Whereby Trusts May Become Im- possible. Former Gov. W. J. Stone, in his cam- paigning over the state this fall, will vocate on the stump the adoption in Mis- seuri of an amendment to the constitution Similar to the which the Democrats of Texas, in their stute platfofm, are pledged to adopt, limiting the right of corporations to incur indebtedness beyond the value of their properties. The Texas law was made an issue by the Democrats at the suggestion of Former Gov. Hogg, and he got it into the platform only after a bitter fight. The two former governors, Hogg and Stone, are close friends and they are act- ing in concert in this matter. They have had many conferences and correspondence has passed between them about it. Mr. Stone has not fixed upon the definite form of the law he will advocate, but In a,general way it will be like the one urged by Hogg. The principle of it is that whenever the indebtedness of a corporation. stock, bond and floating, is in excess of its assets, it is insolvent and the state should step in and protect the creditors by the appoint- ment of a receiver. In his argument for the adoption of the law, Mr. Stone will point to many Mis- souri corporations whose capitalization con- tains millions of dollars of water. “Il am under the impression,’’ said Mr. Stone to the Post-Dispatch, ‘“thac an amendment to the constitution will be necessary before a law of this kind can be put on the statute books. “T have had correspondence with Mr. Hlogg about the matter and the amendment 1 will udvocate will be along the same line as the one he has drafted. 1 believe his idea is that if the actual value of the assets of a corporation is less than 80 per cent of the value of its indebtedness, stock, bond and floating, it shall be the duty of the attorney general of.the state to apply or a receiver for the corporation on the ground that it is insolvent. The values are to be ascertained from the sworn state- ments of the corporation, made for the purpose of showing its value for taxation. “I have not decided finally the provisions of the amendment I will advocate.

D. Brown Pleaded Guilty and Was Sentenced to Thirteen Months in the Penitentiary. J. D. Brown, wanted ona charge of using the mails to defraud, for whom the federal] authorities have been searching six months, was captured by United States deputy mar- Shals Wednesday night in Reynolds Coun- tv. Mo lle was brought to St. Louis Thursday morning and arraigned before Judge Rogers of the United States District Court. Brown... with his brdther, Jefferson 1. Brown, was indicted by the recent grand- jury. Jefferson was sentenced to three years in the penitentiary. It was alleged the two brothers conducted what purported to be a general merchandise store in Rey- nolds County and ordered goods from va- rious merchants in St. Louis and other parts of the state and retailed them at low price8. In every instance it was claimed they refused to pay for the goods and disap- peared before warrants charging them with fraud were issued. Brown told the court Thursday morning that he was guilty, and said he was glau to be under arrest. Judge Rogers sentenced him to 13 months in the Missouri penitentiary. His arrest was accomplished under the direction of Chief Deputy Marshal Walter Nall. John Ashby, John Barber, William J. Lowe and Sam T. Love, all of Dunklin County, charged with a violation of the revenue laws, were fined $10 and costs. In default of payment King and Lowe were remanded to jail.

REPUBLICAN LEADERS WORRIED Funds Are Not Coming In and If Han- na Retires the Situation Will Be Badly Complicated. NEW YORK, Aug. 16.—Senator Hanna's health is causing his the national committee the gravest apprehen- sions. Although Senator Hanna has been at his desk at headquarters every day this week, he has been unable to give that attention that marked his vigorous work at the or- ganization of the headquarters. He was compelled to-day to give up work for sev- eral hours, although engagements were pressing. This was due to a recurrence of the heart*trouble which caused such alarm among Mr. Hanna's friends a year ago, and on which were based the numerous re- ports preceding the national convention at Philadelphia that he would retire from the national comunittee. The death of Collis P. affected Senator Hanna [t was said to-night by one of the na- tional chairman's intimate campaign asso- ciates that no one would be surprised if Mr. Hanna were compelled to give up the active direction of the campaign and seek complete rest. Senator Hanna's threatened illness is said to be due in part to the unpromising man- ner in which the campaign is opening, plac- ing on him many burdens and much work that he expected to avoid. He had divided up the work among bureaus and subcom- mittees in such a way that he had few matters of detail to attend to. TLhis subdivision has not worked well, and on top of that has developed the most sur- prising apathy and indifference to appeals for assistance by business men known since the campaign of 1892. Efforts of the Kepublican campaign man- agers to raise funds for the expenses of the canvass for McKinley and Roosevelt have thus far been flat failures in evegy direc- tion. The Repyblican national committee in 1896 expended in its literary bureau only for the combating ofthe “‘isms"’ in the Chicago platform and the education of voters, $70v,- 0). This was expended for printing and dis- tributing tracts. pamphlets, ete. Thus far the Republican campaign is be- ing run on promissory notes. No money is coming in. The same reluctance ebout giving money to the Republican campaign prevails tin Jjoston and Philadelphia. The Boston bankers in 1896 gave Senator Hanna's com- mittee nearly $500 000. Philadelphia con- tributed about $700 000. associates on Huntington also —_—— —— ee MARRIAGES, BIRTHS, DEATHS Marriage Licenses. J A Paulhigmus Roberta Templeton Harvey N.

If you want to shoot your lucre to the four winds play the race. An even dozen maidens are carded to pa- rade in the second event. This is another tough race to figure. On July 7 Waldeck got away eighth from the post, and was only beaten half a length by Jim Turner. Thureday he should win sure. Terry Ranger, who has been tipped every me he started, should be able to defeat Monoghan for the second money. ’' Seven very fair 2-year-olds will answer the bugle call in the third race. Scorpolette ran away last week when she Was played to win the mile race won by Orleans. It is said that Scorpolette is right nd if such is authentic she should win rom Quick Range and Seething. ‘The fourth event should be the race of the day. Half a dozen of the best sprinters at the track will parade in it. Louis Lemp’s Lasso is a higher class ani- mal than some think and the popular young brewer should have no trouble in capturing this purse. oving Cup and St. Cuthbert figure even- ly for the place, and it is difficult for a racing statistician to tell which is the bet- ter. Senator O’Brien’s horses have been stran- gers as purse-getters of late. However, Lee King should force the northern turf- man to visit the secretary's office and col- lect the purse for the fifth race. Chorus Boy received an atrocious ride his last out. Should his jockey Thursday be able to even ride in a ‘‘box car’’ he shoud capture the second money for Col. John 8. Bratton. Col. Gay should be able to dispose of the other trio. Should the followers of the Post-Dis- patch’s information be loser when the bet- ting is slated in the concluding race of the day, g0 down in the ring and negotiate a loan and wager it on Tom Kiley’s Free Lady. This speedy filly ran an excellent second to Lasso her last out. A wager on ‘“*her ladyship’’ looks to be the best bet of the day. Lady Curgon and Iron Chancellor should battle for the position.

Quarterstretch Gossip. There {s much gossip at the Fair Grounds about the hurdle races to be given at Kinloch Park course by the National Hunt and Steeplechase Association. The idea is to run a race of this kind at the new track on all Wednesdays and Saturdays. Col. John 8S. Bratton, who is a member of the National Hunt and Steeplechase As- sociation, is the champion of this style of racing, and says they will amuse the rac- ng public better than any races that can e given. Larry Kavanaugh has produced evidence to prove that he is the real owner of Apple Jack. Peach ong will be the caller at the new Kinloch Park course. Peach's friends are legion and the appointment is a most popular one. Every one at the track appeared to en- dorse Judge Murphy’s ruling in the Jimp race. After Tom Kiley’ ood mare Ida Led- ford had won: Wednesday's race if you had listened closely you might have heard these words fall from the lips of someone: I ain't no dead one. When you hear 'em say “He's getting closer to the cushion every aay, An’ when they whisper as I pass 'em by— “All out.’ Well, well, the game ones never die, I aint’ no dead one! Not dead, nor broke—perhaps a little bent Nor losin’ sleep about the coin I've spent; These ‘‘wise ones’’ may know, but, here I want to say When I turn loose they'll all kneel down and pray I ain't no dead one. Tt is said that Philip F. Dwyer, president of the Prooklyn Jockey Club, and prineipal ewner of the track at Gravesend, has of- fered the executors of the William H,. Clark estate $490000 for the Empiré City track. T'nless the offer ia accepted it is not like- ly that there will be.a running neoting at the Em) re course the coming fall. Last winter the fockey club set aside dates for such a inceting. EE, There will be a clash in turf circles thts winter unless there is a radical change in the allotinent of racing dates for next sca- Bon, according to the eastern scribes. The Saratog, officials are angry with what they consider vijust diserimination in the racing days assigned them. They say that they will fight tor their rights. They want three weeks of racing without a conflict of dates. Without it they cannot hold a successful meeting. For vears they have held meet- ings at a ‘oss, and they have become tired of ‘“‘break.ioge even.” This season they lost money dally until Tirighten Reach closed. Since then the at- tendance has increased two-fold and the number of lavers doing business in the ring has jumped from 13 to 42. This increase in the daily Income will continue until Sheeps- head Bav «pens, when there will be a gen- eral exolus for New York. Then the meet- ing will «.rop ¢€own again to a losing basis. Fo the good days will just about stand off the bad ones. After the fair, Presiding Judge Joseph A. Murphy of the St. Louls Fair Association fs going direct to California.

The St. Louis Cardinals are a funny old lot. When they strike a losing gait they keep it up until people begin to wonder if they are ever going to win another game. When they cammence winning, they con- tinue that sort of ‘thing, beating the best teams just as easy as the poorer teams, a few days before, had beaten them. This week the Cardinals have on their winning clothes and they keep on drub- bing the life out of their opponents. Wednesday it was the home team’s turn to lose, but, instead of doing that, they again drubbed the life out of the visitors. The final score was, St. Louis, 8; Phila- delphia, 6; but the home team might have made it even more one-sided had they cared to. They hit Bernhardt as they pleased while their opponents could do little with Hughey. The game on Wednesday was devoid of unpleasant features and no one noticed the coolness that existed between Wolverton, McGann and certain other players, who, on the previous day, had tried their best to annihilate each other. On Wednesday John T. Brush, the Cin- cinnati man, was in St. Louis and rumor had it that he was here to get McGraw away from the St. ‘Louis team. It was said that he wanted Mac and Kelley for next year’s Cincinnati Reds and that both were ready to go to him. According to rumor, teo, Mac’s going meant that Tebeau was td be retained az manager next year and that St. Louis was to be given some other good infielder in Mc- Graw’s place. Messrs. Robison and Brush when ques- tioned as to what was really going to happen, smiled and said nothing. On Thursday afternoon the Boston and St. Louls teams meet at League Park. The Phillies’ twirlers: have sent 235 bats- men to first base on balls, as follows: Piatt, 61; Bernhard, oe, Orth, 37; Fraser, 33; Dona- hue, 26; Conn, 12; Maul, 8; McLaughlin, 6. Lajoie of the Phillies is one of the greatest players that. has ever entered the League ranks. Not only does he outclass any sec- ond baseman, but as a batsman he has few equals, and, although he has missed 32 games up to the 9th inst., in the 56 he has layed he is credited with 92 singles, 20 dou- les, 6 triples, and 2 homers, a totai of 122 bases, aad stolen 13 bases and made 59 runs. Ball players, like all grent public charac- ters, are pestered daily by broken-down skates, hasbeens, and back-number talent, in need of alms, some of whom could touch a live wire ard get away with it. Even the umpire is assessed. When a savant like Tim Hurst, with all his worldly experience. parts with coin the hard-luck story bears the imprint of true genius, for Tim is not easily moved. He confessed to this the oth- er day while leaning against the artesian well at the Leland. “Two weeks ago a fellow came to me in New York for a touch,” he said. ‘‘Things were breaking badly for him, and he said he had seen better days. I told him to see the weather man ahout that part of it, but he hung on and sang to me, O, so sad. This poor fellow was working for a sculptor, he said, drumming up a trade in business and statues. He finally got an order from Cin- cinnati for a statue of ‘Abe’ Lincoln. The sculptor made the etary model last winter and sent for the committee that was to in- spect it. They all liked the statue except one Dutchman, who said ‘Abe's’ head -was too big for the body. That blocked the game, and the sculptor couldn’t get his 16 per cent until! he whittled the head down to suit the Dutchman. Before the change could be made the landlord shut off the steam heat : .

Abe's was canceled, and the sculptor and friend have had nothing to eat since. “Il couldn't stand for that,’’. sald Tim |! “and whon the man whose prospects were frosted by Lincoln's frozen head asked for $10 [ gave him $5.

Friday Three of the Shots Took Effect and a Little Dispute Will End in a Homicide. _ anno ee ae ae A shooting affray which will probably end by being a homicide took place Wednesday evening on the Illinois Central track at the foot of Race street, in Belle- ville. Peter Williams fired five shots at Henry Brooks. Three of them took effect. He is not expected to recover. Both .of the men are railroad and live in boarding are now standing in the yard. The men quarreled Wednesday evening and Brooks made a remark about Wil- liams having taken 25 cents from another man. Williams stepped out of the car and toward Brooks, who was standing beside the track, and fired five shots at him. Brooks ran to the, house of James Har- ris and, calling out to some men seated there that he was shot, he sank down. He was taken to the police station, where Dr. Washington West, Jr., examined him and pronounced his wounds Ber oniA. He was removed to the County and is in a critical condition. Williams made his escape. Sheriff Kick- ham and nls deputies are looking for him. CITY NEW NEWS.

A man named Fred Leusch went into a saloon in that section and as he was standing at the bar, a stranger at one of the tables offered to bet him $5 on Gebhardt. Instead of accepting the offer, Leusch indulged in a few disparaging comments on Gebhardt’s pugilistic ability. Gebhardt was standing near by and decided he needed a little preliminary exercise. So, after Leusch left the saloon, Gebhardt followed him out and gave the doubting stranger a practical illustration of his prowess as a hard puncher.

Guigard of the First Artillery Temporarily in Command, Await- ing Recruits. There are only ten full-fledged soldiers in Jefferson Rarracks this week, outside of perhaps, of hospital corps men and about the same number of recruits who assist in the duties of guarding and po- licing the camp. One company of the home battalion of the First Infantry which recently passed through St. Louis to Fort Leavenworth, coming from Cuba, is expected to leave that station on return to this post Thurs- day or Friday. Each company of this bat- talion has been depleted by service, and it is not expected that more than seventy men will be brought here. The practical desertion of the Barracks Monday, when Companies A and C of the First Infantry left for service in the Orient. It was not decided at the time of the departure of these companies whether they were to relieve other a of the Philippines stations which might go to China, or whether they were to go to China direct. Sailing orders for these a score, occurred ,companies will probably be issued Thurs- | day. The hospital corps men, who are in charge of Maj. Allen of the First Infantry, a surgeon, will be sent from the Barrac ks as soon as the number becomes sufficiently large to justify transportation as a body. Jefferson Barracks is being made the rendezvous of recruits from all the cen- tral recruiting stations and these recruits, like the members of the hospital corps, will be sent away in groups to fill up depleted 1ave been in service. (of the four companies of the home bat- talion of the First Infantry which have been brought back from Cuba, two will remain to garrison Fort Leavenworth; one will come to Jefferson Barracks and one will be sent to Fort Logan Root to suc- ceed Companies A and CC which have been ordered into active service. The Barracks are temporarily under com- mand of Lieut. Guigard of the First Ar- tillery, who has been detached for the command until the new company shall ar- rive from Fort Leavenworth. ‘apt. Lane of the First | Infantry is the quartermaster. PRIMARIES IN ST. CHARLES oe Republicans will Vote Saturday Aft- ernoon on the Selection of a County Ticket.

Charles 8. Killalee, a former clerk in the St. Louis Postoffice, and later a conductor on the Grand avenue line of the St. Louis Trausit Co., Wednesday committed suicide on the outskirts of Sedalia, Mo. He took a fatal dose of strychnine and then en- deavored’ to make death doubly sure by throwing. himself into Flat creek. His jump into the creek was witnessed by Clarence Alcom, a Sedalia fireman, and Frank Schultz, Jr., a traveling salesman from St. Louis, who dragged him from the water and hurried him into Sedalia, but too late for relief. Killalee said before his death in the office of a physician, that he had decided upon suicide because his sweetheart, Miss Julia Connelly of St. Louis, had deserted him. Miss Connelly. who is employed at the home of James H. Allen, president of the Allen-West Commission Co., at 6 Forest Park Terrace, declares that she had had no quarrel with her flance and that his mind must have been affected when he committed suicide. Killalee was seriously injured the second day of the street car strike by a crowd which seized his car. After eight days in St. James Hospital he went to Louisville, where his injuries developed complications that made death seem certain. Miss Con- nelly went to Jouisville at the time and the physicians said her presence and minis- trations alone saved Killalee’'s life. Nothing, Miss Cannelly says, happened after that time to mar their courtship, and she went with him to the train last Friday night to bid him goodby. Killalee had told his relatives he was going to Denver and that he had $800 with which to enter the grocery business. Only a few dollars were found on his body J. F. Killalee, a brother of the dead man, resides at 2226 South Jefferson avenue. A sister, Mrs. Martin Whalen, resides at 732 North Sixth street, East St. Louts. Killalee’s home was formerly near Seda- lia. He was a member of the Holy Name Council, No. 40, Knights of Father Mathew, and of the Knights and Ladies of Security, both St. Louis lodges. BARRED FROM SUMMER GARDEN

| WHY THE SLOT MACHINES WERE NOT DESTROYED. PRESIDENT HAWES’ ANSWER. He Says the Chief Was Instructed to Report Whenever a Machine Was Captured Second Time. President Viarrvy B. Hawes of the police board says Chief Campbell is mistaken in holding him responsible for failure to de- stroy the slot machines taken possession of by the police in the recent raids on the nickel gambling devices. When the Post-Dispatch Wednesday asked Chief Campbell why the machines were not destroyed under that section of the police law which gives the president of the board authority to condemn gambling devices and destroy them, the chief's reply was: “Ask the pnresident.”’ Mr. Hawes was asked by the Post-Dis- patch and he made the following state- ment: “The raiding of slot machines was begun under my instructions. A number of the machines were seized and their owners fined. The slot machine people asked that they be returned to them, promising that they woul be taken out of town and never used here asain. I agreed to this proposi- tion and gave orders that if a machine was found in ecneration a second time it should be held by the chief. Hie has never reported to me that a machine had been seized a second time, so I have had no opportunity to take up che matter of their destruction.’ Se eee HEAT PATIENTS IMPROVED Three of Them Ordered Removed Fro:n the Pavilion to a City Hospital Ward. Four cases of heat prostration were treated at the City Hospital Wednesday night, and although two of the patients were in serious condition when they arrived at the hospital, they were so much improved Thursday morning that Dr. Nietert ordered three of them removed from the pavilion to one of the wards. Charles Buser, a laborer, 4040 Minnesota avenue; A. G.
