KRONSBEIN JOHN M’CANN, JOHN RIGNEY AND JERRY TOOMEY HELD. Police Believe They Now Have in Charge the Men Who Killed a Sa- loonkeeper on Madison Street. John McCann, alias John Rigney, and Jerry Toomey are f{n the holdover at the Pour Courts suspected of murdering W. E. KKronsbein, a grocer and saloonkeeper, at Nineteenth and Madison streets, one year ago. McCann was arrested at the time of the killing, but evidence was lacking to connect him with the crime. The police, under the direction of Chief Desmond and Capt. Reyn- ids, believe they have secured damaging evidence against the two men. Several persons who were working for Kronsbein at the time of the murder are being sought by detectives and will be brought in to attempt to identify the pris- » Oners., Capt. Reynolds said Wednesday that some g00d evidence had been obtained, but he re- ferred to Chief Desmond for information concerning the nature of proof. McCann and Toomey were arrested sev- eral days ago and subsequently identified as the men who had robbed Adolph Stecker at the point of a pistol while’ he was on the way to his home at 17 North Third street Stecker lost about $15 and a watch. eney were also identitietas the same men who haited Thomar Wilson at Twentieth and O'Fallon streets, Dec. 19, the sam: evening that the Stecker robbery occurred. and took from him $18.17. Wilson knows MeCann and spoke to him. He says that the robber was surprised and returned his money. The same thing happened to Thomas E!- Hott of 1830 Benton street on the same night. He was also recognized by McCann and Toomey, and a small amount of money removed from his pockets was given back, after the thieves asked for enough money to purchase beer. Saloonkeeper Kronsbein was behind his bar late at night one year ago when two men entered the place and asked for beer. One of the men continued walking around ihe end of the bar. The one in front pointed a pistol at the saloonkeeper. Kronsbein reached for his revolver, which was in the cash drawer. The other man by this time was close enough to shoot him at short range. They escaped without rifline the drawer. Kronsbein died at the City Hospi- ta’ a day or so later. ‘ Twenty or 30 persons were arrested and brought into the Four Courts. Among them were “Skippy’’ Rohan, McCann and Toom- ey. Ae ge deem charging pesnvey robbery have been issu against cCann and Toome in the Stecker case. ‘ AGED COUPLE CELEBRATE.

The meeting held Tuesday evening by James Eads How at Reform Hall to con- sider charges of corruption in the use of the How fund accomplished nothing tang!t- ble. Opposing factions, in their efforts to secure recognition, precipitated a fight over the chairmanship, and the entire sessian was taken up with disputes of a purely per- sonal nature. The most important development of the meeting was the announcement by Mr. How that he was still the lega) custodian of the funds turned over by him to the People’s Fund and Welfare Association, and that if necessary he would take matters into his own hands and administer the moneys as the public desires despite the wishes of the board of directors.

He was engaged in the strenuous occupation of inducing deductive ratiocination. in other words, he was try- ing to think a few.

Mrs. Richardson, Her Friends Say, Will Refute the Damaging State- ments of Her Servant Girl. Special to the Post-Dispatch. SAVANNAH, Mo., Jan. 2—A warrant may be sworn out between today and Mon- day for the arrest of the man suspected of lrrank W. Richardson on Christmas eve. The prosecuting attorney’s office is in possession of several important facts that have not been made public. If the arrest which now seems to be con- templated is made it will be the greatest surprise that has yet developed in this startling case. It ts believed that the authorities think they have identified the owner of the re- volver with which the murder is supposed to haye been committed. The general impression is that the testi- mony of Miss Bessie Phillis has placed such a cloud on the reputation of Mrs. Richard- son that she must go before the coroner and tell her story in order to vindicate herself. Mrs. Richardson suffers much mental angujsh because of the girl's statements. and this blow seems to be harder to bear than is the death of her husband. It is possible she knows more than has been brought out and will tell it. Her rel- atives and friends have up.to this time persistently declared she told everything and could throw no more light on the case. Now they say she will vindicate herseif when she takes the stand. Arthur Brewster, state senator from St. Joseph, who came into the case yesterday afternoon as the legal representative of Mrs; Richardson, was asked what evidence would be introduced to offset the reflections on Mrs. Richardson contained in the evi- dence given by Bessie Phillis and her com- panion, H. E. Tatmen. “There will be none,” he said, “other than what Mrs. Richardson herself will give. And I want to say further that, when she takes the stand, she will tell a story that everybody will believe.”’ Cc. F. Boohr, who has been examining most of the witnesses, said: ‘“‘The man who killed Frank Richardson is the man who owned the revolver found by little Car] Rickhoff. George Crowley, who was brought into the case by Miss Phillis’ testimony. in an interview today denies the statements made by -jArer. He admitted taking supper at the Richardson home on the Tuesday before the killing, but says there was nothing im- proper in that. The oldest Richardson boy had called to him when he was driving by and asked him to come and eat with them, as hie had killed his first rabbit. After sup- per he played carooms with the boy. The testimony given by George Crowley on the first. day of the inquest regarding his whereabuuts at the time of the murder was as follows: “Tam a stock-holder of the Fife-Richard- son Mercantile company.” “When did you last see Mr. Richardson aliva?”’ . “About 8 or 8:15 o'’clock.’’ ‘Did you leave him at the store?” “Yes, sir. He left the Sommerville & Hyde store with me. He went home. I learned from Dorce Meyers, at his saloon where I went, that Frank was killed. It was an hour after I left him at the Sommerville & Hyde store that I learned of the tragedy. I then went right to the house.”’ Crowley is 38 years old and has a wife and one child. So farastheability of the coroner's jury to solve the mystery is concerned the in- quest could have ended yesterday. It is cer- tain that it.was adjourned for no other pur- pose than to give Mrs. Richardson a chance to testify. Carl Rickoff, a little boy 8 years old, who found the pistol in a water drain five blocks from the Richardson home, on the witness stand told a straight sory. He was not the least bit awed by the crowd and the se- vere faces of the men around him. He said he saw the revolver on his way to a house where he was to deliver milk. On going back he picked it up and took it home. The revolver had been pushed into a drain or gutter constructed of plank, run- ning under the crossing at the intersection | of two streets. He said there was one | empiy shell and one loaded in the cham- | bers of the cylinder. After the testimony was read to him the little fellow walked Up | to the table and signed his name. The. boy's | father took the stand and described the) drain in which the revolver was found. The’) revolver is self-acting and it has become ‘rusty from having lain in the water some | | bout Fiorida and the way to get , eipt of large amounts through | formation a ‘ Se ee ee kale ot there. The route of the Dixie Flyer. time. The place where it was found is not | much farther than a block from the public | square. Frank Rickoff, the father of the. boy, said that when the boy gave him the’! pistol the hammer was down on the empty shell. The loaded shell was in the next chamber to that containing the empty shell. The coroner's jury is regarded as an ex- ceptionally good one. It is composed of the following citizens; I. T. McFadden, proprietor of a clothing | store: S. M. Young, ex-postmaster and an implement dealer; Peter Christianson, one of Savannah's aldermen; J. P. Burns of the c othing firm of Norris, Burns & Beaghiler; John Quincy Adams, wealthy retired farm- | er, and EB. 8. Follett, a liveryman. It’s Warmer South.

ANDERSON, Cor- responding Secretary of the Higher Educational League, writes from the “Astoria,’’ Washington, D. C., the following: “About two months ago I was taken very ill with la grippe and was obliged to go to bed. I took three bottles of Peruna with very beneficial results, and was able to leave my bed in‘a week and regained my usual strength very soon, — “T have nothing but praise for Peru- na, and’ recommend it to those simi- larly afflicted whenever I can.”’— Frances M. Anderson. La grippe is, strictly speaking, epidemic catarrh-—-that is to say, a variety of acute catarrh which is so contagious and runs a course more or less definite, the same as searlet fever, whooping cough, etc. During the acute stages of la grippe it is not a very fatal disease, but the condition in which it leaves the system has caused the death of a countless number. Indeed nearly every person who has had la grippe within the last three years finds himself more or less deranged by the per- nicious effects of this disease.

The Forty-firxt General Assembly is expected to respond to | the widespread public demand for franchise taxation and enact a law to that end. | - Such a tax will be especially fruitful {n St. Louis. The ef- _ fect will be not so much to increase the amount of taxation, be but to distribute the burden equitably among all classes of as property. - £‘Whe glaring inequality which now preva!ls is seen in the fact ' that im St. Louis taxes on real es*ate amount to from 10 to 25 ' percent of the rental, an@ even more in some cages.

The growth of its eircilation has not been phenomenal, but steady founded upon the confidence and esteem of the public, Politicativ it has not been partisan, but thoroughly independent, criticising, commending or condemning public men and public measures as, in its estimation, their merijs or demerits warranted, regardiess of party politics. Its denunciation of the boodlers in the state and Pity administrations has been scathing and fearless, and, while it has made enemies among Corrupt politicians, it has gained the tnendship of honest people, who “love it for the enemies it has made.” it is ever foremost in works of charity and for the pub- lic good. and always heads the list with a generous subscription the public to give. mented tages dollars’ worth of space annually for the advance- ood causes.

RUSH OF ~ PROSPECTORS An Old Man Made the Discovery Ten Years Ago, but Returned to His Diggings and Was Lost. | Special to the Post-Dispatch. EL PASO, Tex., Jan. 2.—Harry Alexand- er, commercial agent of the El Paso & Northeastern Railway, on which Captain,N. M., is located, received a dispatch today from the railway agent there confirming the report of the discovery of diamonds in that vicinity. The agent wires that the story of the value and genuineness of the gems was not exaggerated, and that the locality is rapidly filling up with prospec- tors. The Captain country was until two years ago, cut off from surrounding towns by deserts and mountains. An old prospector brought several small diamonds to El Paso about ten years ago, which he said he had found in the coun- try to the north. After obtaining supplies he returned to the mountains to work his claim, but was never heard of. It was sSup- posed that he was killed by Apaches. No one knew where he had found the diamonds, and but, little credit was g.ven to his story. The extent or value of the diamond fields at Capitain has not yet been determined.

I employ about 75 clerks in my es- tablishment, to whom I pay weekly saiaries ranging from $10 to $40. Naturally enough, of them get the former than the latter amount, but they are none the less worthy on that account. “In the beginnig, when I employed only | lived pretty close to them, and I knew how thriftless they could be when they were not encouraged to do otherwise. I have discharged more clerks for that sort of thing than for any o her cause. They spent their. salaries, small, as might be, in a reckless fashion, and let debt accumulate quite regardless of the rights of creditors. As my business increased, and with it my. profits and my force of people, I began to give the matter more study, and in the end, when I felt , able to be of material assistance in en- couraging thrift and honesty, I proposed a yearly recognition to those who would save something out of their salaries. small at first, today I haven't a clerk who has not some kind of a bank account, and not one who willfully reffses to pay his debts.

In his opinion, he said, some of the dogs classed with the best in the East. Old Admiral Hall, the famous prize-win- ning collie, was shown by the Verona ken- nels of New York. He was entered in the open, veteran and stud classes, and gained the coveted blue in each. Admiration divided honors with Old Ad- miral Hall.

Of course the American just now cannot hurt the National’much, but the heads of the major organization do not with to see the young league grow stronger. There is no telling but that Johnson and his associates might make the National lovk cheap if they Keep on expanding as they have been for the’ past two years. The best wey to prevent this would be to take away its pillars and cripple it at the outset. The’ National League ae. nates figure that if Johnson's crowd x given an inch they will want a yard. Andrew Freedman has set about {o break up Johnson’s plans. His New Yo Club is weak. “IIe can serve a double purpose iby securing McGraw. He would take away one of the strengest and cleverest men fromthe new league and at the same time secure the greatest angers player in the : rv to manage his team. OMeCara W accepted. an invitation from Freedman to visit him, and is now in New York hobnobbing with the magnate. All ‘of the roads that McGraw traverses lead to | money. Freedman will pay as much if. not | more than any man tn the National League if he takes the notion. He fancies McGraw's 'plaving. He realizes that by securing him be ‘would be taking a step towards getting a good team for New York, and thereby placing the same on a good footing in the etropolis 4gain. - There is nothing small about MeGraw but his build. He has large ideas and has a high opinion of his value. He will ask Freedman for a handsome salary. Just now he is worth a whole lot to New York as @ ball player and manager. He is also worth a great deal to the League. He is too big a man to have on the other side. If Met rraw's demands are granted it will net be F reed- man alone who will pay the money. The other elevn magnates will contribute their sahres. They would be willing to part with a small sum of money monthly for the eatisfaction of knowing that the new league had been cripled. It would also be wortn thousands of dollars to them have a winning team in New York. 4 As long as McGraw is in New York dick- ering with Freedman Johnson will be on the anxious seat. to he Canadian players who have been in oo Louls for the past week or so do not play effective football. They play a very pretty game. From a spectacular stand- point it.is a better game than that played by St. Loutsans, but it will not win as often. The Canucks hold the ball too long. Their passing and dribbling ts very scien- tific. but science is given the cold shoulder by the rough players in this city. of the Rangers fre exceptionally clever with their feet. But neither can hustle the ball Adown the field as well as Daly or Kane. Their passes are too short and are tried too often. If the Canucks, continue to come to St. Louis they will know something of the game eventually. CHOSE A HORRIBLE DEATH. Unknown Man Sprang in Front of a Locomotive and Was Killed.

To Mrs, Emilie Hoag, 1416 Cass ave- nue, girl. Harkins, 2 OOO FOCOHOHOTOOOH OHO FHS Whose baby. will be the lucky one which will capture the twentieth century prize of- fered by the Post-Dispatch? This question is a burning issue in many St. Louls homes. Many infant boys and giris have already entered the competition and it may take a corps of expert statisticians and chronolo- gists to determine which of them Is entitled to the award. The gift will be sone article or articles to the value of $25. The mother will be per- mitted to make the selection. It will rest with the fond maternal parent whether ths ‘prize shall be a brooch, a ring or other jew- el or a layette, cradie or crib.. As long as the $25 holds out she will be permitted to shop for her little one to her heart's content, All evidence must be in the hands of the Post-Dispatch not later than Saturday, Jan. 56. That day the competition will close. This evidence must be in writing. It should include the names of witnesses, if any, and a@ written certificate signed by the doctor in attendance. Those who have reported only by tele- phone should lose no time in transmitting their evidence to the Post-Dispatch in writ- ten form. Severai additions were made to the list of twentieth century babies Wednesday morn- ing. Mr. and Mrs. John Manken of 1919 Madi- son street geported the arrriva! of a girl on the first day of the new year. Boys were added to the households of Mr. and Mrs. John Sauf, 2306 South Eleventh street, and Mr. and Mrs. J. VY. Leslie, 24 North Vandeventer avenue. The Post-Dispatch prize will be a precious heritage to which the lucky boy or girl who receives it will.‘point with pride’ as the century grows older. The recipicnt will be the youngest and smallest money-maker and capitalist in the world. It will be just as if the little one were literally born with a silver spoon in its mouth. Whoever the fortunate mother of the twentieth century baby may be, she will no doubt devote a portion of the prize money to the purchase of something substantial which can be kept as a memento of her child's unique distinction. If it be a first- born child, the gift may assume the dignity of a family heirloom. Fond parents should not forget that the competition is still open. No distinctions will be made because of race or color. Time The closer the time is reported the better the chance of the competitors. The arrival of the baby should be reported with the greatest accu- racy, as a single second may cut a great deal of figure in determining who Is the lucky twentieth century Post-Dispatch baby. Photographer John YW. Hays of 2 South Jefferson avenue has notified the Post-Dis- patch that he will take a dozen fine photo- graphs of the winning baby free of charge. err artes “a ~ PAIN IN THE Bacn oo ' | | CLOSES SATURDAY wes ae Gee LYING oe MOTHERS OF SOME ? ; S$ OF THE BABIES.

HIS CURIOUS CRYPTOGRAM: - Through It He Sought to Show That Shakspeare’s Plays Were Really Written by Francis Bacon. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Jan. 2.—With the birth of the new century Ignatius Donnelly, author and political reformer, has passed away. Death came to Mr. Donnelly at three minutes after the hour-of midnight this morning. He was 70 years of age. For %& years his name has been known in literary circles and he has figured in national and local polities. Mr. Donnelly came into public notice more through his studies and writing on Shakspeare than for any other reason. It was he who evolved the famous cryptogram, through which he sought to show that the plays credited to the Bard of Avon were not written by William Shaks- | peare, but by Francis Bacon, his friend and fellow litterateur. Mr. Donnelly, who lived in Hastings, was visiting at the home of his -father-in-law, Barton Hanson in this city tonight, when he fell over in an unconscious condition. Dr. Murphy was:summoned, and he at once pronounced it a> case of heart failure. Ignatius Donnelly, known as ““‘The Sage of Nininger,’’ has been conspicuous In the olitical and literary field for many years. Mr. Donnelly came to Minnesota 35 years ‘ago, and since that time had been a mem- “ber of both houses of the State Legisla- ‘ture and represented his district in Con- gress. During his many years In thé state Legis- lie was an able or- ator and had pronounced ideas, and durin his political career had been @ member o ‘nearly every political party Known in the State. , For the last few years he had been bit- terly opposed to the policy of the Demo- cratic party, and at the last general elec- tion he was a candidate for vice-president on the Middle-of-the-Road Populist ticket. Mr. Donnelly married about three years azo Miss Hanson, a daughter of Barton Hanson, of -tthis city, and since that time they have made their home in Minneapolis.
