Mr. McCann explained to the Post-Dis- patch just’ before his release that the tion on the part of the city authorities wag induced by a visit of Richard Dalton, presi- dent of the Single T'ax League, to the mayor on Friday. President Dalton allowed the mayor to understand that the incarceration of Mr. McCann was to be precipitated into politics by Dalton himself, who left the city Saturday morning to stump the state on the \ssue raised by the imprisonment of Mr. McCann “T gave the mayor to would not accept a pardon,”’ er. “Il told him I had used all endeavor ever since my incarceration to prevent any appeal on the part of my friends for a par- don. | told him I could not prevent him from turning me loose, but I would protest against any sort of release which would in any way compromise my position. “IT am giad the thing is over.

I am under obligations to an unjust law for that much.”’ Mavor Ziegenhein explained his motive for McCann's release to the Post-Dispatch in these words: “Il considered that McCann was not the sore of a man to be confined in the work- house and therefore I set him free. I also thought he ‘had been sufficiently punished and that his health was such as to entitle him to relief. Richarl Dalton did call on me | riday and put “McCann's case before me. That is all I have got to say.”’ The remittance of McCann's fine was placed in the hands of Supt. Kempf of the workhouse at 11 o'clock. He telephoned at once to the workhouse and ordered Mc- Cann’s release. McCann was arrested on Monday, July 16, and after a day in the city jail was taken to the workhouse. He was sentenced in ore court a year ago by Police Judge aabody. An appeal was taken to the Court of Criminal Correction, where Judge Clark affirmed the lower court.

Danger lurks in the walls-and ceilings of the old rookery, bounded by Sevgnteenth, Eighteenth, and Pine. streeta known as the city hospital. A place where people go to be healed and Chestnut cured seems to be a place where the efforts of physicians and nurses to bring half dead men and women back to health ar: thwarted by the dangerous condition of the old bullding.

NO SPECIAL RIGHTS GRANTED. GERMAN AND RUSSIAN PLANS ARE DISTURBING. I? Either Continues Fighting in China the United States Will Withdraw and Cease Concurrent Action. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.—The govern- ment is disturbed by signs that Germany means to declare war on China and that Russia also may do so. A message of in- quiry has been sent. If either German or Russia replies that it means to go on fighting the United States will refuse to continue concurrent action and will withdraw the American troops to Taku into garrison or to Manila. Then if war is declared against China the United States will serve notice that the right of indemnity has not been waived, and that no special rights, detrimental to American interests, shall accrue through the conduct of a war which this govern- ment considers unjustifiable. ' Considerable uneasiness was caused by a message from Consul Johnson, at Amoy, reporting a riot there, which resulted in the destruction of a Japanese temple. Jap- anese marines were landed to preserve or- der. , ee American commercial interests are larger at Amoy than at any other Chinese port, and the navy department was asked how soon a warship could be sent there.

He cables that ‘‘in the engagement fought near Tien Tsin, on Aug. 19, the Chinese were repeatedly repulsed by the Japanese and American cavalry.’’ Details from another source show that British troops participated, and, in fact, outnumbered the Japanese engaged, though the total strength of the little allied army barely exceeded 1000. But this force suf- ticed to kill 300 Chinese and capture nearly 100 wounded, while the allies’ casualties ag- gregated a scant dozen. Gen. Dorward, the British officer in com- mand at Tien Tsin, directed the allies. The engagement assumes importance from the fact that it was apparently one of the oper- ations designed to prevent the Chinese from cutting the communications of the Pekin relief force. NO NAGASAKI.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.—Census returns show that the population of the country is about 75,000,000. Of the 52,600 enumeration districts, 17,000 have been ccunted, showing a population of 25,000,000. According to the law of averages this woulé indicate the population of the country to be 77,000,000. But as the count proceeds the general av- erage of the districts fall off enough to modify the total. The figures show °3 per cent of the popu- lation live in towns of more than 8000 in- habitants.

Difficulties Under Which St. City Was Enumerated. » @ © © © © oO © © @ @ @ @& & @D ve eV VS : MR. MERRIAM ON OUR CENSUS. With the perfect system which we use in the present census St. Louis can rest as- sured that the count just completed is an a curaie and reliable one. Not oniy has the system which ts ip use all over the United States been the most perfect which experts in that line could devise, but St. Louis has particularly fortunate in baving an able and conscientious supervisor in the person of Mr. Jerome S. Higgins. The diffi- culties to be met with in securing a correct count of St. Lous perbaps greater than in any other city of the United States for the reason that the big street railway strike was in force at the time the census was taken, and endless trouble and annoy- ance was caused to the supervisor and his enumerators. Our bureau was obliged to furnish 16 special agents to assist in the work, and they were granted extra expense accounts so that they could secure the necessary transportation. The volume of correspond- ence from Mr. Higgins bas been equal to that of any other supervisor in the coun- try, and indicates the care with which he did the work. At bis own request two or three wards were recounted, and the same thing was done in several enumeration dis- tricts. Louis been were © OOO SOOO SHHHHHOOHOO St. Louis is becoming reconciled to the census report which shows the city’s pop- ulation to be 575,238. Whatever disappointment may have been felt by some enthusiastic citizens, the high indorsement of the work of Supervisor Jerome 8S. Higgins by the director of the census is evidence that an accurate count has been made. Mr. Higgins himself is well pleased with the result. He said to the Post-Dispatch Saturday morning: ‘Il consider the show- ing a remarkably good one in comparison with that made by other cities. The per- centage of increase is far above the ave- erage. As to the method employed in tak- ing the census here I Know from my own personal supervision that the count was as accurate as it was possible to make it under the present system. “The schedules sent from here to Wash- ington contained statistics not furnished from any other city. Every precaution was taken to prevent inaccuracies from any cause. The preliminary basis of the cen- sus enumeration was such that no enu- merator could fail to do his duty without being found out and branded as incompe- tent. “St. Louis has a very excellent set of maps used by the fire department, show- ing the location of every building and the number of stories in each. Copies of these maps were forwarded to Washington to be used there for purposes of comparison with the returns made by the enumerators. Each ermmerator was also furnished with copies of the fire maps covering his district and was required to make a report on every building shown on the map: In this way the check was complete. The enumera- ors were closely watched and in several cases their work was gone over several times to make sure it was correct. “Another innovation introduced in this of- fice was the entering on the schedules of the number of stories in each building enu- merated. This will form the basis for val- uable statistics relative to the material and commercial growth of St. Louis. Inder my oath I am not permitted to give out any | figures in addition to those already fur- nished from the Washington office.

But there was still some of the youth in him and he asked for a bathing suit. He wanted to take a plunge. The little company of boys in the natatort- um stood around with wWonder-wide eyes when the old Italian, bent with his 91 years, with hardly enough eyesight to see the pool, emerged from his dressing room and asked where the diving tower was. He was going to dive. The boys cautioned him. but he would have it no other way.

Mr. Reynolds first consulted a number of attorneys and Circuit Clerk Lee as to whether a marriage without a license would be legal in the state of Illinols.

St. Louis has one school playground open in summer, that of the Shields School, and practically but one small down- town park in the congested portion of the city, the green spot known as Carr Square. In this connection it is to be noted that the city of New York has just approved awards amounting to $3,045,464 for the acquisition of Hamilton Fish Park, the fourth of the areas recently acquired for downtown breathing spots for the peo- ple. To make room for this park an entire block of unwhole- some and dilapidated tenement houses was condemned. The space thus secured will be a miniature paradise, of more value to the city, relatively, than ten times the area in up- town parks wherc they are less needed. This is a pointer for St. Louis, which has plenty of ground covered by buildings that would better be destroyed to give place to open air playgrounds. As the Post-Dispatch has sug- gested before, a Citizens’ Kecreation League should be formed to further such a movement. Padding a city’s census must be a continuous performance if it is to be permitted at all. It is a far fall from raised figures to the correct ones. oe MISSOURI IN THe FAN-AMERICAN The Missourl Commissioners to the Pan-American Exposj tion at Buffalo, working without any State appropriation @ Reformer McCann made the city many dollars richer: May- or Ziegenhein has made it many dollars poorer.

LD JASPER MORTIMER was rich, but more than his wealth he loved his handsome nephew, Harry. It was his wish that the young man should marry to suit him, and he had spent five years looking for a fit mate for his fa- vorite. Until Harry was 2% he thought it the easiest thing in the world to keep in Uncle Jasper’s good graces. Then he fell in love Harry make a and obscure. But she was poor him to knew his uncle desired magnificent match. So he went at once to him. “t'ncle Jasper, I'm in love!” “Tn love! In love with whom?” ‘Yes, with Miriam Langton.” Harry pronounced it tenderly. “Pretty enough name. Who is What's she worth’” “Well, uncle, Miriam lives at the Hamp- tons’. She's nursery governess, and she’s poor as a church mouse, sir.’’ Mr. Mortimer frowned. “You'd better get out of love,’’ he said. ‘‘I’ve picked out Miss Arabella Burr for you. worth a quarter cof a million, and a beauty, too. she's here from Liverpool at the Browns’, Well go up there now.”’ started with his “but I can’t marry she? “ts eo but uncle. anyone Harry he said, Miriam.”’ Miss Burr was not at home, but as thev passed the back parlor windows Mr. Morti- mer caught his nephew's arm. “There she is now! Take a good look at her. See her? Ain't she a beauty? Bless me! It makes me ish I was 20 years younger!” ‘Is that Miss Burr? Are you sure?” ‘Yes, it is—the girl I’ve picked out for you to make my niece. Will you marry her —ves or no? Consider, Harry—a beautiful, educated wife, with a fortune, my bless- ing, a happy home with no wish ungratified, or -— Harry laughed. ‘If you wish me to marry ful girl I'll do it.” Mr. Mortimer slapped Harry's shoulder. ‘‘Bless the boy! Tomorrow I'm off ona that beauti- | visit to the Cape, and when I come back Shall the Exposition Open Sundays? Tv the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Yes. Why not? In the first place, Sunday is the first day of the week and not the Sab- bath. The fourth commandment tells us that six davs you shall labor and do your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath. [am not a Jew, as some might think, but I believe facts before theory. Mark 2, 27, tells us that the Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. Then, as the seventh day is the Sabbath, why should not the /ixposition be opened the first day? Rom It, 5, says “One man esteemeth one day above another; another esteemeth ev- ery day alike; but let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.’’ As there are many who don’t esteem Sun- day as tne Sabbath, let the few who op- pose beware: let them read Rom. 16, 17: ‘Now I beseech vou, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which you have learned and’ avoid them.’ As U. S. Grant once said, let the church and state be forever separate. FRANK I. 198 Morgan street. — —— ESLER. A Good Argument. To the Falitor of the Lost Dispatch, I have been very much surprised at the objection by some of the ministers of the gospel to the opening of the Exposition on Sundays. What more elevating, refining and devotional treat can be offered to the working men than a beautiful picture gal- lery, or a concert of sacred music. Let the Exposition be opened on Sun- days and more saloons will be closed. In order to be a day of devotion the Sabbath need not necessarily be a day of mourn- ing, and anvthing that places in the way of the men whose days are filled with labor and must devote the nights to rest, an oOp- portunity for education and appreciation of the beautiful, music and art, should be heartily encouraged by our citizens. Sunday concerts at the Exposition can WITH : POST-DISPATCH POETS, PTUMORIST Sa? PHILOSOPHI THE JIGAMAREE. — —— Sweet Blanche and Mame and pretty Marie Insist on wearing the jigamaree.

SOBRIETY. St. Louis. Equal Opportunity for All. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Regarding the discussion whether or not the Exposition should be opened on Sun- days, which appeared in your paper last Sunday, [ should like to express my opin- ion. Though neither minister nor lawyer nor of any particular prominence in the do- ings of this splendid city, I am a true Democrat and I believe firmly that God meant things to be equal and if the Ex- position is closed on Sunday many of his children will be denied the Innocent shuaa- ure and benefit that a day spent at such a place offers. .[ have seen the Tissot piec- tures in Chicago and I know that a view of them will hold a sermon for many and will incite in the heart more worthy de- sires. I sincerely hope that the Exposition management will be wise enough and kind enough to give all an equal opportunity. St. Louis. KE. FIELD People Should See These Paintings. To the Fadltor of the Post-Dispatch. My vote is emphatically tn favor of open- ing the Exposition art galleries from 1 to 6 o'clock p. m. every Sunday during the Ex- position so that the people may sea the Tissot collection of paintings of the life of Christ. Archbishop Corrigan has said of these paintings: “I know nothing in art more beautiful or better fitted to impress the devout soul.” So strongly did the re- ligious feeling of Tissot’s work appeal to Dr. Lyman Abbott that he wrote urging that the paintings might be shown in New York on Sundays.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The fight, although short, was the best l ever saw. Both men displayed great gameness. Each man had a hard punch. It was a hard, fast, fur- ious fight from the first tap of the bell. Both men were clever and kept away from each other in the early stages, but toward the end of the first round they began to slug In earnest. Sharkey landed a heavy swing on Fitz's jaw just as the gong sounded at the end of the round. The blow knocked Fitz down, but it was a trifle too high to be effective. Fitz and Sharkey mixed it up from the opening till the finish of the sec- ond and the last round. Fitz got ina number of hard punches on Sharkey that would have knocked out a less courageous man than the sailor. When the enfl came Sharkey stood the rain of blows like the stoic he is. When nearly gone Fitz got in his fa- mous left hook to the jaw that won the fight. Fitz proved by his fight that is a clever, shifty man with a hard punch. No man in pugtlistic circles has any- thing on Fitz in any shape. He is right in line for a return match for the championship. Should he and Jef- fries come together again in the squared circle the sport-loving people of this country will have a chance to to see the greatest fighters of the age struggle for supremacy. .

The game played by the Cardinals as a team and individually Friday afternoon was weil nigh perfect. Not an opportunity to advance a base or score a run was let pass. Even Robinson and Powell, two of the slowest sprinters in the League, negotiated safely a double steal. Capt. McGraw was directly responsible for the brilliant work of the team. He was always on the coaching line, and the team played. from the start to the finish, the kind of ball that characterized the playing of last season’s Baltimore team. Jesse Burkett led the locals at the bat with two slashing singles and a perfect bunt out of four times up. Donovan, of course, secured his usual two hits, and Heidrick, Wallace, Keister, McGann and Robinson also planted the sphere in safe territory. But two members of the team failed to connect with Griffith's slants, and. strange to say, McGraw was one of them. Powell being the other. ‘‘Mac’’ made up in fielding, however, what he lacked in hitting. He had three assists, every one of which was of the difficult variety. Pow- ell also fielded his position tn admirable sty.e, making one stop especially of a hot liner from Griffith's bat in the seventh that was a beauty. ed fault- accepting Patsy Donovan played his usual less game in the right suburb, the three difficult chances offered him. Jimmy Ryan, who occupies the same gar- dyn for the visitors, also put up a nice fielding game.
