RNER WURY iS ~ DISCHARGED; NEW "TRIAL IN APRIL

No Verdict In Case of Delegate ‘Charged With Taking $500 Bribe From Ascher. ¢

JURORS VOTE EIGHT TO FOUR TO FIND GUILTY

—— Majority for Conviction on First Ballot, but Minority Could Not Be Won Over— “Cap” Troll Questioned About Creve Coeur Gambling in Cross-Examination.

e Hopelessly at variance, with eight for conviction and four for acquittal, the jury which heard the evidence in the case of Dele- gate Ferd Warner of the Second Ward, charged with bribery in the Ascher garage bill case, was discharged by Judge Muench at 11:30 a. m. Friday. The line-up of the jurors became apparent when the first ballot was taken Thursday evening, and it was not altered during the morning’s balloting. Circuit Attorney Sager asked at once that the case be reset for April 7, but Warner’s lawyers objected, on the ground that they would be busy, and Judge Muench reset it indefinitely for the April term. Small Number Hears Verdict. A dozen delegates, a sprinkling of Four Courts employes and the usual court spectators made up the small number present when the result became known. Delegates Warner and Priesmeyer and their lawyers walked from the room in silence. The dismissal of the jury followed its second report during the morning. It was out since 10 p. m. Thursday, sleep- ing four hours. At 10:45 a, m. Charles J. Kestuba, the foreman, announced that the jurors stood $ te 4 and that seemed mie possibility ef an agree- ment, but Judge Muench sent them back for ‘further consultation. The jurors. sed to give the names ef those for ittal or coriviction. Kostuba, speaking for the entire jury, eaid: “I cannet even tell whether the eight stood for conviction or acquittal. We have agreed to give out nothing about our deliberations in the jury room.” Other jurors referred questioners to Mr. Kostuba. The charge against War- ner was that, on the night of Oct. 18 last, he accepted $500 as a bribe from Henry Ascher, after an agreement with Ascher that if this amount was paid, a bill authorizing Ascher to build a . _ garage at 5011 Delmar boulevard would a : Bishop Tells Boodle Story. Judge Muench adjourned court for an hour at 6 p. m. Thursday. On recon- yening court he read the instructions to the jury.

“This scheme was hatched up in the Mayor’s office to get somebody in trou- ble,”” said Judge Moore. “Mr. Warner was busy with the free bridge Dill. It may be that the Mayor wanted to pun- ish somebody for passing this bill over his veto. “ “Anyhow, after this elegant and odor- iferous Ascher had been to see the Mayor and Connett, an appointment was made:with Mr. Sager, and we find Mr. Connett going to Mr. Sager'’s house, in the dead of night, with $1000 he had drawn on the Mayor’s check, to get some poor little $25-a-month devil into trouble.’’ Attorney Rowe made an argument principally on the instructions ef the Court as he conceived that they applied to the testimony of Ascher and Con- nett. He referred to Connett as the Prime Minister of the Mayor, busily engaged in setting traps for members of the House of Delegates, and then promise them forgiveness if they would “get down on their marrow-bones” and beg for it. Circuit Attorney Sager denounced the House of Delegates combine and the gang associated with it. He admitted that he had participated in setting the trap to catch the two members, and said that if he had not gone as far as he did in the matter he ought to be drummed out of th mmunity. Like Rats After Cheese. “IT have had occasion to say before,’’ said Mr. Sager, near the close of his speech, “that when I want to catch a rat I set a trap. And there never was @ rat that would go after a piece of fresh American cheese any quicker than some of these fellows in the House of Delegates will go after a $10 bill.’ Mr. Sager denounced “Cap’’ Troll and “Red” Brennan in the bitterest terms. He had paid Connett a compliment for his werk in this case, and said that if he could have the co-operation of half a dozen men like Connett his du- ties would be rendered much easier. “The fellows that this defendant brought in here. to testify for him look to me like a mighty tough gang,” said Sager. “I don’t want to include Wil- liam J. Brennan in this gang, however, for he presented a clean, decent ap- pearance. But this man ‘Red’ Brennan and Cap Troll look to me as if they were members of a gang.’ Warner Admits Interview With Ascher; Denies Taking Boodle Warner was the last important wit- Meas in his own behalf.

I was chairman of the Com- mittee on Public Improvements, and was on the legislative and other com- mittees. i told Mr. Ascher I was busy with the free bridge bill, which was not taken care of, and all the people wanted the bridge.” Just Remembered Troll. On cross- “examination, Mr. Sager asked Warner why it was that he now remembers that “Cap.” Troll went with him to the House of Delegates on the night of the alleged bribery, when tn the Naughton trial he testi- Continued on Page 2, Column 2.

Chilapa, Mexico, South of Capital, Leveled by Night Shock.

POPULACE IN TERROR

Town Was Seat of Bishop and Had Large Fac- tories.

MEXICO CITY, Mexico, March 27.— The town of Chilapa, in the State of Guerrero, was destroyed by an earth- quake last night. Following the shock, the ruins took fire, and the whole city is burning. The populace is terror-stricken. not It is known, even approximately, how many lives were lost. Chilapa was a city of 15,000 inhab- itants. The destroyed town lies about 115 miles south of Mexico City. It was the reat of a bishop, and several important manufactories were located there. MILLION-DOLLAR BANK THEFT: {8 LAID 10 2 MEN Pittsburg Examiner Has Infor- mation Issued Ayainst Teller and Auditor.

PITTSBURG, Pa., March 27.—A sensa- tion was caused here today when Bank Examiner W. L. Folds made a third information against Henry Rieber, pay- ing teller, and John Young, auditor of the Farmers’ Deposit National Bank, charging them with misapplying funds of the bank amounting to $1,106,000. The previous amounts named were $85, - 000 and $300,000. Rieber and Young are in the County Jail, where they were placed follow- ing their arrest last Monday night. They are held in $25,000 bail. Other Charges Likely. Accordiag to a persistent rumor, in- formations against business men in Pittsburg and other cities are likely to be made in connection with the matter within the next 24 hours. | The informations today were filed shortly after noon with United States Commissioner William T. Lindsay. The examination and audit or the books of the bank have been practically com- pleted, and it is believed that the in- formations teday will cover the entire shortage within the statutes. Containing two counts, embezzlement and misapplication and false entries in the teller’s statement book, the infor- mation charges the fraud extended Over | a period of three years prior to March | Funds of the bank were di- | 10, 1908. verted as late as March of this year. In cases of embezzlement the statute of limitations applies after three years. and for this reason information cannoi go back further than to March 10, 1906. Detectives Investigating. Just what Rieber and Young did with the money they are alleged to have stolen is a matter of conjecture, Lo- cal brokerage concerns say they have not had business dealings with the two men and detectives ‘are now making an effort to ascertain where Rieber spent Rieber is a middle-aged man. who has been with the bank for 82 years. He has lived modestly in a little home in the East End here and was promi- nent in church circles. It is not be- lieved that the losses the bank has sustained will affect it in any way, as it is one of thé strongest banking in- stitutions in the city. Its Capital stock is $6,000,000 and its surplus and undl- vided profits are nearly $8,000,000. MAN KILLED ;ROAD PAYS $35,000 ee ST.

Miss Rhoda Brockman of East St. Louis killed six serpents and the Casey- ville road is again a paradise for young women who would love to take roman- tic strolls, but have refrained because of their fear of snakes. For a long time it has been nndwn that there was a colony of serpents near the L. & N. tracks, a mile north of East St. Louis. Thursday afternoon Miss Brockman her sister, Elma, and Miss Fulda Schroe- der of Belleville, who was visiting them, were lured outdoors by the spring sun- shine, ard Miss Schroeder suggested that they take a stroll on the Caseyville road. “Goodness, ““there’s tne awfullest lot there.”’ ““O, I guess they wouldn’t hurt us in the daytime,”. said Miss Schroeder. She won her point and they started out. They had crossed the railroad em- bankment when Miss Schroeder screamed and scrambled back to the right of way. The others followed, breathlessly ask- ing what was the matter. “I saw a snake,’ said Miss der.’’ “There?” asked Miss Rhoda Brock- nan. Miss Schroeder pointed to a gully at the side of the road. Picking up a rusted iron bar that lay near the track Miss Rhoda ran down the embankment. When she reached the gully she found seven snakes huddled together. She struck at the bunch with the fron bar, One of the snakes uncoiled and raised its head. With a quick side stroke Miss Brockman laid it low.

CINCINNATI, March 27.—Leap year girls of Cincinnati and other cities with- in a radius of several hundred miles are besieging Paul Bradley of the Indiana Hotel, this city, with ardent proposals. Bradley has $10,000 coming to him as soon as he enters into a matrimonial agreement, and a few days ago an- nounced that he was willing to pool in- terests with the right girl.

The news has reached girls in West |. Virginia, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, In- diana, Illinois and Ohio, and Bradley says he has a choice collection of love letters. One Cincinnati girl writes thus: “My unknown sweetheart, I am a brunette, 23 years old, 65 feet 4 inches tall and weigh 132 pounds. In fact, I am consid- ered a very sweet-looking kid. I am full of life and fun. It would be a fine romance to hurry up and get married.’’ Bradley said: “I am determined to get married now, but will wait long veyed the news first to the public caused general exclamations of regret. Prof. Soldan was widely known and very popular. Mr. Soldan was born in Frankfort- on-the-Main, Germany, in 1842. He was prepared for college in the Ger- man public schools and was graduated from the University of Giesen. After studying languages in Berlin he came to America and located in St. Louis in 1863. After serving as as- sistant principal of a private school, he became in 1868 connected with the St. Louis public schools as teacher of foreign languages in the High School. W. T. Harris was then superintendent of schools. At Normal Scheol fn 1871. The following year he was made as- sistant superintendent of the High School, and in 1871 was appointed principal of the Normal School. In this capacity he served 30 years. For five of these years Mr. Soldan also managed the Franklin School. In 1885 he was made principal of the High School and for a time was princi- pal of both the High and Normal schools. ince then Mr. Soldan has been in complete charge of the public school system of St. Louis; His administra- tion has met with the favor of succes- sive Boards of Education and he at- tained a prominent rank among the foremost educators of the country. In 1896 he was selected by the Board of Education for the highest position in its gift—Superintedent of Schools. The Board removed Prof. of His Talks With In- dicted Delegate.

In the testimony in the Warner bribery trial, reference was made to the effort of William C. Connett, secretary to the Mayor, and Grattan Kerans, a Post-Dispatch reporter, to obtain a- full statement from Warner. Mr. Connett, in his testimony, said in answer to Judge Moore’s questions that such an attempt was made. When asked whether {mmunity was offered, he said he would explain just what Warner was told, if the defense @Gesired te have him do 80. The defense apparently did not desire this matter explained, as the question- ing was dropped at that point. The exact facts relating to this offer are given in the follewing statement by the reporter: BY GRATTAN KERANS, The arguments used to induce Warner to make a full statement in the inter- est of the public good were not based on any promise of immunity, but an ef- fort was made to show him that his duty, not only to the State, but to his wife and child, demanded that if he knew of legislative wrongdoing in this or any other case, he should tell of it, trusting that his frankness might win for him whatever indulgence the law might allow him. The arguments advanced were along the lines of those which induced Dele- gate John K.

superintendency. Well-Known to Thousands. Mr. Soldan was a very wel-known St. Louisan. In his 40 years’ connec- tion with the public schools he taught or supervised the teaching of many thousands of persons who now reside in St. Louis. He knew the schools and the school teachers and principals intimately and spent much of his time visiting them— more time, in fact, than he spent at his office in the Board of Education Building, Ninth and Locust streets. He was a member of the Liederkranz Club and other social organizations and was a frequent speaker at banquets where public questions were discussed. He was one of the early advocates of free textbooks itn the public schools, and is credited with being the introducer of the portable schoolhouse in St. Louls. He was an advocate of manual train- ing and physical culture in the public schools and he was also a believer in the employment of only unmarried women as women teachers. Mr. Soldan was above medium height, of dignified carriage and impressive bearing. _He was of heavy build and had a large head. His complexion was light and his eyes a clear blue. He wore a mustache, which in recent years had tHiecome silvered like his hair. Favorite Among Teachers. Mr. Soldan was a great. favorite among the school teachers and prin- cipals under him. While he exacted to make a,full statement. He agreed that I should aid him in bringing this about and gave me a letter which was to show that I was authorized by him to act in the negotiations. I made an engagement with Warner by telephone and met him at his saloon at Broadway and Warren street. At first he was inclined to resent my ad- vances, but when I explained the pur- pose of my visit he listened to me pa- tiently while I outlined the reasons why he should tell all he knew. No Immunity Promise Made. Nothing was said about immunity from prosecution. He was told specifi- cally that he could expect only such indulgence as was within the law. I told him that in the present state of public opinion there was great proba- bility that punishmént might be severe if he persisted in maintaining silence In the face of the charges against him After I had talked with him for near- ly an hour Warner said: ‘“That’s all right, but I have nothing to tell. I’m not guilty. They are just trying to job me; that’s all.” A week later I saw him at the City Hall. I repeated the arguments which I had made before, but he waved his hand and said: “I won’t give anybody up and I won't holler, If they send me away I'll go away.” A month ago I again saw Warner en

Prince Meets Mme. Gould at _ Private Function in New York Hotel. . ee,

- COUNT ENGAGES SUITE Divorcee’s Suitor Has Long Record of Affairs of Heart and Sword.

a | By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 27.—A shadow Was cast across the tea table at which - Mme. Anna Gould and Prince Helie dé s Sagan met, in the St. Regis Hotel, by the report that Count Boni de Castel- lane, divorced husband of Mme. Gould and cousin of the Prince, is about to start for New York. Under the terms of the divorce, Count Boni has the legal right to see his three Bons, now with their mother here, at a? ‘Miss Helen Gould's residence. On this . pretext he could place himself in the neighborhood of his former wife and her ' present suitor enough to annoy both ex- tremely. It is believed that he still hopes to persuade her to a remarriage. A suite in a New York hotel is said to have been engaged by cable for the Count’s use. The meeting of Mme. Gould and the Prince took place in the apartment of Mr. and Mrs. Tyler Morse in the St. Regis. De Sagun German Prince. Generations of azure blood flow in the ~ veins of Prince Helie de Sagan. In treality, his is a German title. ‘Prince von Hagan,” the accurate Almanach de Gotha calls him. His ancient family is as “noble’’ in Prussia as in France, '. Where his aged father is the Duc de “Talleyrand. _ In the natural course of events the 'Prinee, as the first-born son, will suc- ‘ceed his father in possession of the ‘Duchy of Sagan, an estate in Prussian “tSelesia. The increase from the Duchy ‘would be $200,000 had not the Duc de Talleyrand’s creditors obtained legal ‘hold of all of it save $4000 a year. The old Duke, a dandy and spendthrift in his youth, is a paretic new, so he has Mttle need of money. But no man can . tell what is the annual! income of Prince * Helie de Sagan, although seme woman may be able to guess at it. _ For, during the trial of the suit which “De Sagan brought against his cousins, the Castellanes, for attacking him, Count Boni handed into court a bundle of letters, saying: ; “I ask the president of the court to read these letters, which are of a char- _acter so intimate that they cannet be published. But they contain things so abominable, and place this person in a

light so despicable, that he must ac- Saas

knowledge that or prove them to be for- geries.’’ “Forgeries” Cries Prince. “They are forgeries,’’ cried the Prince, “and I will prove them so.”’ Count Beni had intimated as strongly as he copld that women, very dear friends of the Prince, had written the letters. 7 It is interesting te quote the remarks of the public prosecutor at that trial, which resulted in the court awarding 20 cents damages to Prince Helie. “Nearly every day the court has to judge cases like this. It was a common gutter fight—nothing more or less. The only difference is in the social station of the combatants and in the cut of their coats. I do not think that the in- juries on the Prince’s side were so very serious. Anyway, he was able to have himself photegraphed in bed, with ban- dages around his head, soon after the incident. It was not a question either of thé dregs of society mounting up from below, but rather ef the elite com- ing down to the dregs.’’ No Seconds, No Duel. And, after the fight, Boni de Castel- lane characterized his own flesh and blood by saying: “There will be no duel, for, nowadays, the Prince de Sagan cannot find seconds to represent him.’’ Prince Helie de Sagan has for years been ‘“‘without visible means of sup-

Notes had been forged the name of Max Lebaudy, the late sugar millionaire, who was the prey of harpies of all breeds. Whether or not Boni de Castellane is right in saying no man will go out with de Sagan now, the Prince has been on the “field of honor’’ many times. Ever since he reached the years of indiscre- tion he has been fighting duels. One of his encounters was with Prince George Stourdza. As a preliminary, de Sagan slapped the other Prince on the face in the lobby of the opera, and then wound- ed him in a duel. Defended Sportswoman. The Prince de Sagan pummeled Maitre Barboux, the lawyer, for having de- clared that Mme. De Gast, the million- aire sportswoman, had posed for the nude “Masked Woman.” De Sagan pro- fessed to be very much in love with Mme. De Gast at that time. Barboux took vengeance by having the Prince fined $100 in a police court. De Sagan denounced Prince de Chalais as an impostor, claiming the ancient title for himself. De Chalais had re- cently married Miss Beatrice Winans of Baltimore, now dead. But the Prince declared himself above De Sagan’s chal- lenge to a duel, and he still wears the title De Chalais. The men of the family of the Prince de Sagan have been fond of marrying American women. The Duc de Va- lencay, his brother, was divorced by his wife, the lovely Helen Morton, Levi P. Morton’s daughter. A cousin ef de Sagan, Maurice de Talleyrand-Perigord, Duc de Dino, was diverced in turn by two American wives. The first had been Miss Elizabeth Carter of New Or- leans, the second was Miss Adele Sampson. She who was Anna Gould only recently rid herself of Boni de Castellane. Now Helie de Sagan comes a-wooing. Ste ttt tt ttt et YOUTH, MEDICAL STUDENT, SEEKS “PRACTICE” AT CITY HOSPITAL Forbidden Experiments on Patients, He Accuses Full-Fledged Doc- tors of Jealousy. James Copeland, 18 years old, who told the City Hospital authorities he lived at Eleventh street and Illinois avenue, Kast St. Louis, Is disgusted with the conditions at the institution. He appeared there with a medicine case to treat patients and the other doctors, through jealousy, he says, re- fused to let him work on them. Copeland remained in the reception room at the hospital al) Thursday night waiting for patients, but none arrived during the night. Friday morning he again appeared after wvreakfast and began scanning the register. John Sanders, a clerk. asked him what he wanted and he ex- plained he was waiting for patients. He was attending a medica) school. he said, and he thought it a good plan to visit the hospital and work on some of the patients. Sanders ordered him out. Copeland appealed to Dr. Kirchner. the superintendant, but he also ruled that the City Hospital ig not a train- ing school for medica] Students, and sadly young Copeland departed.

CULEAN MEMBER OF BLACK HAND BAND, S THEOR —_

Detective Who Came For Pris- oner Says Italians Terror- ize Rochester.

Detective Alexander C. Elliott of Roch- ester, N. Y., arrived in St. Louis Fri- day and took charge of Joseph Louis Culean, alias Colton, the young Italian who Thursday afternoon confessed hav- ing written ‘“‘Black Hand” letters to two relatives demanding $350 from each. Elliott says Culean’s real name is Lu- iggi Cugiano and that he is a member of a society of Italians, agents of which have committed one murder, @sfigured a man for life, blown up six residences with dynamite and kidnaped a young girl in Rochester within the past eight months. Only three weeks ago Deteo- tive Elliott, says, the home of a cit7 official in Rochester was wrecked with an explosive after the official had re- ceived a “Black Hand” letter demanding $500. The home was that of Francisco Di Maria, 27 Hartford street. The man who was murdered after re- fusing to give up $500 as commanded to do was Alexander Caruso, a Wealthy merchant of Rochester. He was found lying on the street near his home on the night of Sept. 7, with his throat cut from ear to ear. Caught Girl’s Kidnaper. At 6:30 a. m., July 22, Philomeno, 14- vear-old daughter of Michel Di Ponzio, a wealthy retired merchant, was kidnaped while on her way from her home to a grocery. The father had previously received a “Black Hand” letter demand- ing $1000 a The four kidnapers were captured. Each was convicted and sentenced to serve ten years in the Penitentiary. Detective Elliott, who speaks Italian, conversed with Cugiano in a cell Fri- day morning. Later the detective stated that the prisoner had admitted that he is acquainted with the Italians) who have been convicted. oe “There is no doubt in my mind that he is a member of the gang that has been terrorizing the wealthy [Italians of Rochester,” said Elliott. “Of course, he wll not confess his connection. None of them do that. But he has admitted enough already te prove that he was en- gaged in the same line of work.” Cugiano confessed Thursday afternoon to Assistant Chief of Detectives Mc- Carthy that Ne tried to extort $700 from Vincenzo Pizzicato of Rochester and an uncle in Poughkeepsie. He said he wanted the money to start a cobbler shop so that he could marry. v a7 7 d ‘ : ae Sk. ney % f, Fda ron, > Re oR ¢ gis BIRD ieee yk oa dr Reo BES ai Ny EL aire Se tases An 2 % ee Spa ae es ky ction vt, ! x oe Me Rn.

testimony is not that of a cordingly is not to be given from disinterested motives. Dr. Pierce’s medicines, however, form a single and therefore striking excep- tion to the above rule. Their claim to the confidence of invalids does nat rest solely upon their owner’s and makers’ say 80 or praise. Their ingredients are matters of public knowledge, being printed on each separate bottle-wrap- per. Thus invalid sufferers are taken into Dr. Pierce’s full confidence. Scores of leading medical men have written enough to fill volumes in praise of the curative value of the several ingredi- ents entering into these well-known medicines. In favor of Dr, Pierce’s medicines is the frank, confiding, open, honest state- ment of their full composition, giving every ingredient in plain English, with- out fear of successful criticism and with confidence that the good sense of the afflicted will lead them to appre- ciate this honorable manner of con- fiding to them what they are taking into their stomachs when making use of these medicines. WHAT THEY CURE. People often ask “What do Dr. Pierce’s two leading medicines—‘Golden Medical Discovery’ and ‘Favorite Prescription’ cure?” Brieflv, the answer is that “Golden Medieal Discovery” is a most potent al- terative, or blood-purifier, and tonic, or invigorator, and acts especially favor- ably in a curative way upon the lining surfaces, as of the nasal passages, throat, bronchial] tubes, stomach, bow- els and bladder, curing a large percent- age of catarrh cases, whether the disease affects the nasal passages, the throat, larynx, bronchia, stomach (as catarrhal dyspepsia), bowels (as mu- cous diarrhea). Even in the chronic or ulcerative stages of these affections, it is generally successful in effecting eures. In fact, the “Golden Medical Discovery” is without doubt the most successful constitutional remedy for al] forms of catarrhal diseases known to moderns medical science. In Chronic Nasal Catarrh Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Rem- edy fluid should be used for washing and cleansing out the nasal passages while oe the “Discovery” for its ef-

blood cleansing and speci fects upon the mucous lining mem- branes. This combined local and gen- eral treatment will cure a very large percentage of the worst cases of chronic nasal catarrh, no matter of how many

As to the “Favorite ” years’ sta they may be. | ” it Whose Say-so Is Best? With nearly all medicines put up for sale through druggists. one has to take the maker’s say-so alone and exclusively as to their curative value. Of course, such disinterested party and ac- the same credit as if written is advised for the cure of one class of disease only—those ailments peculiar to women. It is a powerful, yet gently acting, invigorating tonic and nervine. For sick, worn-out, over-worked wom- en—no matter what has caused the break-down, “Favorite Prescription” will be found most effective in building up the strength, subduing pain and bringing about a healthy, strong, vig- orous condition of the whole system. Dr. Pierce believes that our American forests abound in most valuable medic- inal roots for the cure of most of our obstinate and most fatal diseases, if we would properly investigate them; and in confirmation of this firm convic- tion, he points with pride to the al- most marvelous cures effected by his “Golden Medical Discovery,” which has proven itself to be the most efficient stomach tonic, liver invigorator, heart tonic and regulator and blood cleanser known to medical science. Not less marvelous in the unparalleled cures it is constantly making of woman’s many peculiar affections, is Dr. Pierce’s Fa- vorite Prescription, as is amply attest- ed by thousands of unsolicited testi- monials contributed by grateful pa- tients who have been cured by it of backache, headache, hot flashes and kindred affections, often after many other advertised medicines had failed. Both these world-famed medicines are wholly made up from the glyceric extracts of native medicinal roots. found in our American forests. The processes employed in their manufac- ture were original with Dr. Pierce, and they are carried on by skilled chemists oy pharmacists with the aid of ap- paratus and appliances specially de- signed and built for this purpose. Both medicines are entirely free from aleco- hol and all other harmful, habit-form- ing drugs. What is said of their power to cure the several diseases for which they are advised may be easfly learned by sending your name and address to Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y., for a little booklet which he has compiled, containing copious extracts from nu- merous standard medical books, which are consulted as authorities by physi- cians of the several schools of ice for their guidance in prescribing.

The Opening Display and Sale of The “KNEELAND” Shoes for Men For Which We Are Sole Agents in St. Louis BYE since we opened the Men’s Shoe Store we have been looking for Shoes that possess the highest degree of style and quality, and could be offered at a price that would enable us to justifiably claim that we were giv- ing absolutely the best values in the country. HOES by the score were offered to us; shoes with wide national reputations; shoes that had been extensively advertised, and for which there is a market, and still we have taken up a comparatively unknown and obscure line. ‘The Kneeland Shoes.’’ The manufacturer, William Kneeland, Braintree, Mass., has long been established, is thoroughly reliable and well known to the shoe world. Still, we were not buying a reputation, we were buying Shoes; the reputation is bound to come later, because the Kneeland line possesses great merit. These Shoes are made exceptionaly well, and only the very best of leather is used. The new Spring lasts, such as Perfecto, Winthrop, Cigarette, College, As- cot, Newport, Duke and Autocrat are now on display. Come in all leathers; patent colt, patent kid, demi-patent, glazed kid, gunmetal and black calf, and many styles in tan Russia calf; the line of sizes is complete; 5% to 12; AA

tinguished themselves at the last subscription concert of the Sym- _ Phony Society at the Odeon last night, ~-@ big and fashionable audience was as- gembled for the occasion, and the twen-* -eighth year of the organization’s ex- pind ce came to its end with appropri- ate brilliancy. - Marking also the termination of the | first season under Mr. Max Zach's con- * ductorship, the event became doubly © memorable. '= The soloists of the evening were Mrs. “Mary Hiesem de Moss, soprano; Mr. | Gwilym Miles, baritone, and Mr. Hugo , Olk, violinist. The all-Wagner pro- "gram in which they appeared gave fine » opportunity for striking and impressive a The opportunity was improved = to the utmost. ; Mrs. De Moss and Mr. Miles were first B heard in the splend?d duet from the sec- on ond act of “The Flying Dutchman,” . in English. At once it became * evident that a wise choice of voices © sulted to Wagnerian scores had been im made. Mrs. De Moss’ clear, true and 4 ch S OLOISTS and orchestra alike dis- powerful soprano revealed its quality to |, @xceptional advantage, Mr. Miles’ sono- -; baritone, finely trained, delight- ' ed the ears of its hearers, and the twe a jointly scored an initial triumph of gen- se nine distinction. Excellent Work by Soloists. Ih tne program's second half, Mrs. De Moss gave a convincing demonstra- ~ tlon of vocal worthiness in the trying _ “Tannhauser”’ aria, “Dich, theure _ Halle,”” sung in German, her work bc- ke fog of such high excellence as to pro- 4 voke the most enthusiastic applause. Mr. Miles later sang in German the © strongly dramatic score of Wotan’s » Farewell and the magic fire scene from “Die Walkuere,” filling the great hall ' with the volume of his voice and com- » ing well abreast of Mrs. De Moss in _ the favor of the audience. - “Mr. Hugo Olk, an artist invariably ‘certain to prove his worthiness of being ' heard in the best company, has as his allotted number the exquisite “Bin Al- bumblatt,”"’ which he played with the _ @ruest feeling, bringing out its many ‘Beauties in a most deft and masterly Marner. The violin used by him seemed to be of uncommon tonal quality, and his remarkable technical skill was never ' More fujly manifested. The audience showed its appreciation of his work with prolonged applause. Orchestral Work of Highest Quality.

Amateur Actress Seeks “‘Shad- ow” Who Disappeared With Costumes.

This is a real detective story, no Nick Carter pipe dream. The folks over in Gillespie, Ill., will verify every word of it.

The folks went wild over the piece. It was so cleverly acted. The “Man of Mystery,’’ whe turned out to be a robber disguised as @ preacher, was admirably portrayed by the former villain of a defunct stock company. Miss Bertha Lesem, one of the belles of Gillespie, took the part of Kate Burke, the girl detective,’’ so well that the audience proclaiméd her the best talent they had ever seen. Grace Hat- field, another society girl of Gillespie, Was Cast in the rele of ‘‘Nellie Mertens, Kate’s chum.” In the play Kate Burke dogged the footsteps of The Shadow, by which the “Man of Mystery” was known. She foiled him at every turn and made him say “Curse the luck” so often that the Town Marshal, who was in the audi- ence, Was going to arrest him for swear- a final scene showed “The Shad- ow” sipping a pdisonous lotion which he had prepared for “Kate Burke.”

Man With Heavenly Name Took Stolen Underwear to Wyoming Street Home.

The three men who robbed freight cars in East Carondelet and fled in a skiff under a shower of bullets from railroad detectives are under arrest, and all have confessed. Pater Paradise, said to be the leader, gave himself up after he heard that Ed- ward Quentin, caught during the chase, had confessed, and Gustav Nutt, the third, was arrested Friday in a North Market street restaurant where he worked. Missouri Pacific detectives Lehmann and Betts watched the men rob the cars Wednesday night, and opened fire on them as they started through a corn- field from the railroad yards teward the river. Flee, Spilling Loot. The thieves spilled worth of beoty as they fled, but when Nutt and Para- dise jumped into a skiff and rowed for the Missouri shore they had a quantity of underwear and other merchandise, taken from the cars. Quentin, who was caught, pleaded guilty Thursday and was bound ever to the grand jury.

— WHEN THE DEMOCRATS CHEERED.

If they will refer to their national platform of they will find that, out of deference to their istic allies, they then declared that “until money question (16 to 1) is settled we are to any agitation for further changes in: F tariff laws.” Republicans usually profess a willingness to vise the tariff in the interest of the people, Sioa it will have to be admitted that they in- lably revise it in the interest of monopoly. The Democrats are the only people who are on against any kind of revision until a coun- it dollar can be established as the unit of lue. + No wonder that they hooted and laughed and ed when Mr. Roosevelt proposed a policy they should have been advocating all these oo e «¢ A HARD SUMMER FOR CHAUTAUQUAS.

SET RN er BRR 2 RR RAOUL TAILED BRYAN’S ATTACK UPON JOHNSON. # In politics of the higher order, even. when the fiercest contests prevail, it is not customary for rival candidates to assail each other. Vitupera- tion is left to others and there have been few cam- paigns at the end of which the two principals cculd not have met each other with self-respect and courtesy. If the proprieties are thus scruplously observed by men highly antagonistic and owing allegiance to different parties it would seem to be possible and desirable that men belonging to the same po- litical household should carry themselves quite as circumspectly. To impugn a rival’s honor or te question his motives ought to be an impossi- bility. Mr. Bryan’s recognition of the presidential aspi- rations of Gov. Johnson has been confined to a “warning” in his newspaper that money is being used among Democrats in certain states of the Mississippi Valley to thwart the will of the people —the will of the people in this case being the re- romination of Mr. Bryan at Denver. Without a particle of proof and with no reason whatever for so much as a suspicion of wrong- doing, Gov. Johnson and his supporters are thus stigmatized in advance of the convention as mere mercenaries by the one man whose attempt to monopolize the presidential honors of his party they have assailed. It would appear that every consideration of hon- or, fair play and party loyalty would protest against slander of this description. What can be ite motive unless its author hopes, in the event of his own defeat at Denver, to prepare the ground for another silent bolt like that which he ordained egainst Judge Parker in 1904? Much trickery is resorted to and assented to im politics, but within certain Hnes there is a keen sense of honor among our public men. Politicians who do not keep their word are destroyed. Poli- t:clans who do not obey popular instructions are soon lost to sight. Politicians who carry their fights beyond the conventions do not prosper thereafter. Politicians to be successful must abide by the decisions of their party; they must be “regular,” and they must act in good faith. Is Mr. Bryan’s position in his party and before the country so unique that he is absolved from ell these restraints, and is he at liberty, when his supremacy is questioned in any quarter, to brand a rival as a corruptionist, who, if so, should be defeated at all hazards? , Mr. Bryan’s personal character is good, but it is no better than Gov. Johnson’s. Gov. Johnson has been through the fire of important public office. Mr. Bryan has not enjoyed that distinction. Gov. Johnson is held in higher esteem today by men of all parties than he was a year ago, two years ago or four years. He has stood the test. No test has yet been applied to Mr. Bryan except that of the polls, where the results were far frém satis- factory. If Mr. Bryan believes that Gov. Johnson is mere- ly the creature of bribe givers he cannot support him if nominated. If he can prove what he says no other Democrat can support him. Whether he believes it or not and whether he proves it or not, he has already placed himself beyond the realm of honorable rivalry and he has fixed in the minds of his thick-and-thin followers prejudices which can- not be easily removed. What was never reasoned into a man’s head can never be reasoned out of it. No one is cleverer ir action upon this fruism than Mr. Bryan him- self. No one has gained more by adhering to the icea that a prejudice is often more active than a principle. He has done what he could ‘to preju- tee the case of an honorable man, a faithful Democrat and a great Governor, whose only of- fense, it must be held, is that he and his friends have ventured to favor a change of leadership in the party. No other political organization was ever man- aged on these lines. The unhappy experience of the Democrats with a policy so vicious and de- moralizing {s likely to endure as a frightful ex- ample to the end of time. Le be... oa OPEN DEATH TRAPS ON THE STREETS. Nothing short of doing away with the grade crossings altogether can materially reduce the danger from that cause in St. Louis, but the purpose of Chief Creecy and Street Commissioner lravilla to compel the railroads to comply with the ordinance and provide gates and watchmen at crossings is worth pushing vigorously, both for its own sake and as a means to the larger end. This will illustrate and further emphasize the extent of the deadly danger. For example, 12 unprotected grade crossings are shown to exist in 20 blocks. Thousands of people are daily com- pelled to cross unprotected and unguarded tracks over which hundreds of trains must pass, and switching is going on constantly. Some of the busiest thoroughfares in the city lead into open deathtraps. The only conclusive answer to these conditions is an imperative demand for abolishment of the crossings. When the conditions become suffi- ciently feared the demand will be made in such =: ‘s ri

‘a manner that public servants, of whatever char- acter, will feel bound to enforce it upon the rail- roads. The way is open legally. The roads are at the mercy of the city. It remains only for the people to command their servants—to make an iesue of the grace crossings. Meanwhile, if possible, the utmost letter of the lw should be exacted of the roads with respect tc gates and guards. Such exaction, which in- volves heavy expense: to the roads, should tend to reduce their opposition to the ultimate pur- pose. = = oS The Honorable “Fingy” Conner’s statement that Mr. Bryan has been “hornswoggled” in New York is hotly denied by the Honorable Charles F. Murphy of Tammany, who objects to the word as not meeting the case at all. It is little disagreements of this kind in the Demo- cratic ranks that give the Republicans the itm- pression in most places that one of their nomi- nations is equivalent to ar election.

In the Southern States at this time, when con- testing delegations appear in nearly every Re- publican convention, the Taft men may be known by their official“ titles.

New York's delegation to Denver will go unin- structed, as usual of late. There was a time when

* eects Gok cal umbihae is « eel cratic convention, but it is now merely & spec- tator.

Each one of us keep company with young men whose earnings are small—say about $13 a week. We know What money is. I have not spent $10 for wearing apparel since January 1. I could spend a heap more, just for the asking, and I’ve never yet been refused. THREE YOUNG LADIES. A Broad Definition of Gentleman. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In the Giscussion as to what constitutes a gentle- man, Southern, Northern, black or white, I should like to say a word. In the Eastern Continent, a genileman is one who lives upon an income derived from either money invested or land. He does no work and carries on no business. In the South a gentleman ig one who belongs only te the Anglo- Saxon race, who is gallant to the ladies of his own race, clean in personal habits, patronizing to in- feriors, and whe doeg not labor. In the North a gentleman is any man with a pure heart and civil manners, who believes in the Golden Rule and in personal cleanliness. He may be Jew or Gentile, black or white, a servant or a millionaire, a la- burer or a man of leisure, for this is America. B. C. N. Liquor in the Armory. : To the Editor of the Post-Digpatch. The Old Guard’s argument in Wednesday’s issue of the Post-Dispatch was truth as far as he went, but he did not tell all the truth that is practiced by the Officers’ Club, which is very contrary to the rules and regulations governing the various Na- tional Guards armories; as to the maintenance and disposition of liquor on the premises of the First Regiment’s armory. There ts a refrigerator that re- selves 150 pounds of ice daily to cool the ,bottled beer and necessaries to make all kinds of mixed drinks to be served to the officers at their will, sign- ing for same to be paid for on the first day of each month. I deem if this situation was investigated by Adjutant-General De Armond he would immedi- ately prohibit the disposition of liquor on premises that is used for armory purposes. OLD GUARD STILL IN SERVICE The Care of Providence. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The writer derives daily pleasure from reading some of the “Letters From the People’ and until now has refrained from airing his own opinions through this medium. But a contribution in Tues- day's issue advocating rear-end signals on street cars brings up a question that comes to my mind daily, viz: “How de so many people escape !njury in passing frem cars and ocrossing streets?’ That Providence cares particularly for fools and drunk- ards is eptiygdbipaphtrated in the many cases where people thrust themselves in front of street cars, automobiles and vehicles, defying all laws of me- chanical possibility and human effort, escaping only by sheer luck. Without reference to Miss Kobush's misfertune in particular, but to all accidents in the reay of street cars I would like to hear how K. P. Trying would so equip cars with a safety appliance capable of preventing accidents in their wake. OBSERVER. The Gentleman. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The question is being agitated as to what is a gen- tleman. and the briefest definition is, possibly, a man who is gentle. The veritest ‘“‘tough’’ will straight- en himself up and say, “I'm a gentleman, I want you to understand,”’ and we may presume that the Prest!- dent of the United States and the King of England (the two highest personages in their respective coun- tries) are gentlemen. The gulf between the high- est and the lowest is wide, but it is filled with so- called gentlemen of so many grades and character- izations that the term gentleman is quite hazy. I feel free to discuss this matter because I lay no claim to the title. For many years I was an auctioneer, and to guard against ladies buying articles for the fun of the thing, and forgetting to call and pay for the articles purchased, I insisted upon a cash deposit and as the bill increased called for more deposits. and was told over and over again I “was no gen- tleman.” As We never ‘‘see ourselves as others see us,”’ I thought possibly the ladies were right. So I lay no claim to the title. There are still a good many ladies in St. Louis who may recall the day and the place when they “sassed back’ at the auc-

BOTTLED UP.

TWO OLD HOMESTEADS. If we are to believe a local writer who apparently had more space in which to elaborate upon it than he had time to think it over, St. Louisans chiefly put in their time last week comparing the old homestead of the Rosmer family with that of Uncle Josh Whitcomb. We are told that “those who saw both Rosmersholm and The Old Home- stead know where their sense of the dramatic unities was best satisfied, and there is not one of them who does not feel that The Old Homestead will stil! be delighting great audiences when Rosmersholm has made its last exit and the curtain has been rung down on it forever. But this cannot always be true, thanks to our women’s clubs, our Art Museum, and seed sown by the World's Fair. We are still reubens, but we are coming into town as fast as Dobbin can trot. If we went to see only the Whitcomb place, without going around to see what the Rosmer manor is like, we might just as well resign ourselves to a farmers’ hades. But, tnank good- ness, we are not that provincial, any- way. The art revivals in Forest Park are enthusiastically attended, and every time Mr. Zolnay and his assistants call for penitents a number go forward and

ee we ee ee ee request prayerful commendation to the light. As a result, while many who at- tended the performances of Rosmers- holm inwardly bawled for the quartet and the general appleknocking atmos- phere of The Oid Homestead, they gave Ibsen a hearing. A community is not doomed to ever- lasting reubenism when It displays our admirable spirit. We don’t care for the Plays our children are to understand, but we are willing to go from The Old Homestead to Rosmersholm, and from Way Down East to Man and Superman. Which is a very good sign For just as sure as genius scintillates in the new plays and calves bah-bah in the old, we shall learn in time prop- erly to classify things of the heart and things of the head, and to fit Denman Thompson and Henrik Ibsen each in his proper niche. Meanwhile, an occasional proclama- tion that-Denman is a-greater luminary than Henrik is doing no harm. It re- veals us in the commendable spirit of being unashamed of what our fathers: thought, even if we have learned bet- ter. : READER.— Yes, Lieut. Peary has seen North St. Louis.

And now for Act V. Louise was very fond of Ida and spent afternoons in the shop learning hat trimming. She also learned to make many of her own garments and to mend her brothers’. Ida assisted in the mend- ing and supervised the old woman who kept the Conners children’s home. She mitigated many of the old woman’s in- sufficiencies. When the old woman’s children sud- denly took her away to an old folks’ home Ida canvassed for a weman to re- place her.

HE best correct solution of the problem, ‘fiow Old Is Clara?’ came from Mrs. Paul F. Staetter of 6507 Nashville avenue. The judges found it the most simple statement of th® reasoning essential to securing the correct result. It follows: From the information given by Rose have the following facts: Rose equals 28. Clara equals ™% Rose's age plus \ Bella’s age. : Clara equals 2 years younger than Vera. Clara equals 4 years younger than Anna. Clara equals 10 years younger than Bella. From the above table we find that Clara’s age equals % of Rose’s equals T4 plus 0 equals 14 plus % of Bella’s T we years age. Vera’s age equals % of Rose’s equals 14 years plus 2 equals 16 plus % of Bella’s age. ‘ Anna’s age equals % of Rose’s equals 14 years plus 4 equals 18 plus % of Bella’s age. Rella’s age equals % of Rose’s plus 14 years plus 10 equals 24 plue % of Bella’s age. Rose’S age equals 28. Total years so far accounted for equals 100. The four quarters of Bella’s age are as yet unaccounted for, and are represented by the difference between the combined ages, 182 vears and 100 years; 1. e., 32 years, Dividing 32 into four quarters gives us eight and adding eight years to each of the unknown ages shown in the preceeding table gives the following result: Clara, 22.

EEE COUNCIL WILL RECONSIDER Tit BAKERIES. BILL Sikes Is Angered by Report That Council, Considers It “Class Legislation.”

The bill for the regulation of bakeries,’ the condition of which was exposed in the Pest-Dispatch recently, will come up for another public hearing next Tues- day at 3:30 o'clock by the Legislative Committee of the City Council. The committee is not satisfied with the evi- dence adduced at the last hearing, which was all against the passage ef the bill, the main objection being to the clause which compelled the working bakers: to be examined for their health by the Board of Health. It was alleged at the last public hear- ing on the bill that the clause compell- ing an examination lof bakers was in the nature of class legislation. This will be disproved by opinions from the highest legal authority, and the necessity of the clause clearly proved. The committee in whose hands the bill now is is composed of H. A, Fitz- simmons, chairman; F. Ernest Cramer and Albert Bond Lambert. Sikes Discusses His Bill. “The proposed rejection of this bill by the City Council I regard as a great in- justice to the public,”’ said Inspector Sikes te a reporter fer the Post-Dis- | patch. “Probably the mest important clause in the whole bill is that relating to the inspection of the health of bakers. Why should not bakers who make one of the principal articles of food be made to keep in good health and clean as bar- bers? There aye many consumptives among bakers, and I have had an uphill fight against them ever since I have been in this work. Can anyone imagine a greater menace to the public health than to have a baker with consumption working in the dough that goes into the bread oases by the ye ct “When yer ee bill - ong up they claimed that it was class legisiation, but the Appellate Court ruled anything that was necessary to the public health or against a trade for the public policy could not be class legislation. The bakers put up the false argument that ff they should be examined as to the condition of their health then grocers, butchers and everyone who handled footistuffs should be examined. ! “The answer to that is clear. Any per- son patronizing grocers and butchers can go into their shops and see for themselves whether the person who serves him has consumption and refuse to patronize him. This ts not the case with men who work in dough in under- ground and filthy bakeries. But the ab battoirs and small slaughter houses ara rigidly inspected both by the Govern- ment and the State. There are many trades which have to undergo inspec- tion. Feathers and other articles of wearing apparel must bear tags to show that they have been produced under sanitary conditions. “The men who are fighting the bakery ordinance say that cats are necessary in bakeries to keep down the rats. If the bakeries were bullt in a proper manuer there would be no rats. No bakery should be permitted to operate that is not constructed with concrete flocrs and rat-proof walls. Rats in a bakeshop are as much of a menace af a consumptive baker. “Bill Absolutely Necessary.” “I cannot urge too strongly the abso- jute necessity for the passege of that bill in order that the pubiie health may be safeguarded. The subject are so confused that it convictions under t months to get,a t 4 was conducting 4 notoriously @ithy and unsanitary bakery, and then I could only get a warrant for him on the one ground that his place was not properly "It would be extremely unjust to say that all small bakeries are unclean, be-

cleantiness. It is the bakeries in t Sobe, Greeks and are the ones thatjneed stringent tion. “If a man is in good health he not object to going before the Health four times a year and gettir & certificate. If he is net in good health he has no business working in a bekery anyway. I think the Olty Counch sai reconsider its action in bill when ft understands that te Ri would greatly endanger public health and would not be for the publie polien.” SUMMONED TO BURIAL, FINDS HIS FATHER ALIVE AND WE Telegram Delivered by Causes John Yockey to to Sardinia, O. oe A telegram delivered to him by mis- take caused John Yockey of @19 Pros Broadway to go to Sardinia, O.,- with the intention of attending the funeral of his father.

Hoppe and Sutton Meet in New)

DANIELS. AND SCHWARZ T0 MEET ACAI e

Swimming Champion to Con- test With Missouri’s Fast- est at New York. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 27.—C. M. Dan- iels, champion’ short-distance speed swimmer of the world, will be called upon to defend his title against a for- midable rival in the 100-yard National A. A. U. indoor swimming championship race at the New York A. C. this even- ing, when he meets Marquard Schwarz ef the Missouri A. C. of St. Louis. Daniels has defeated Schwarz no less than ten times in 100-yard races, but he figures Schwarz will give him the race of his life this evening. Schwarz recently won the 60-yard National A. A. U. swimming championship in Chicago and showed great speed. Schwarz has been training ‘for over a week at the Chicago under the direc- tien of Alex Meffert, swimming director of the Chicago A. A., who while at the Missouri A. C. brought Schwarz to the front as a speed swimmer. In fact, it was Meffert at the old Knickerbocker A. C. of New York City, who brought Daniels out. Daniels fears Schwarg may have learned a few things from Meffert while in Chicago that will make it possible for him to finish in front in tonight’s race. A number of other fast men are entered, but the champtonship is conceded to be between Schwarz and Daniels. Schwarz has been swimming the 100 yards under 1 minute. In one trial he was timed in 58s. Daniels holds the world’s record for the distance in 58s. On form Daniels should win, but the contest will be a pretty one, as both men are wonderful paddlers.

RAINS DEPRESS WHEAT Market Essentially a Weather One, Prices Ruling Weak but Nervous. REPORTS ARE CONFLICTING Corn Dull and Easier-—Cash Mar- kets Rule Weak and Lower. A dull, heavy tone pervaded the lo- cal wheat market Friday, fluctuations following a sharply lower opening be- ing narrow, and the close weak at de- clines of 4%@ic for the day. Argentine shipments of wheat were 6,248,000 bu, against 6,252,000 bu last week and 3,504,000 bu a year ago. The visible supply of wheat in Argentine is 6176000 bu against 6,624,000 bu last week and 3,352,000 bu a year ago. The Argentine wheat market is firm with a good demand. Arrivals from the interior are slightly smaller with the eee tlen tin satisfactory. Heavy rains in Argentine have helped preparations for the new crop there. The weather was again the domin- ant factor in the market and a very weak opening at this point was caused by reports. of scattered moisture in Kansas and the Southwest and indica- tions of more. Liverpool cables were unresponsive, closing unchanged to ed lower and the iarge exports from Argentine also encouraged the weak- ness. Opening prices were about \%c lower, but the market early in the day acted very stubborn at the break, and prices got but a very little distance from the initial levels. Receipts in the Northwest were again very light, and several blizzards were reported in parts of the Dakotas. It was essen- tlally a weather market, however, and considerable hesitation among the operators was caused by the uncertain conditions. Several reports had it that the rains that fell were insuffic- ient, but the situation was generally | sized up as favorable for the crop in this market and traders here were backed up in that opinion by the Modern Miller crop outlook. The trad- ing in the pit was very light during the forenoon and prices showed a rather steady undertone at the lower levels. May wheat opened %@%c lower at 96c to 9614c, fluctuated between 96%ec and 964%4c, and declined to 96c. July wheat opened Kc to \%c lower at 86%c to 86c, advanced to 86% @86%c, and declined to 86%%c, Broomhall estimates ments wheat Monday, exclusive of North America, will be about 7,200,000 bu,’ of which Europe will take about 6,400,000 bu. Last week 10,528,000: last world’s _ ship- Arrivals of breadstuffs into the United Kingdom will be about 5,600,000 bu. rre- dicts good decrease on passage. Wheat from private elevators tn Chi- cago, 55 cars contract and 10 of lower grades. From public, 42,487 bu contract and 5492 lower. Corn from private ele- vators, 23 cars contract and 110 of lower grades. From public, none. Oats from private elevators, 57 cars and 30,250 bu contract and 27 cars lower grade. Cash sales at Chicago Thursday were 15,000 bu wheat, 60,000 bu corn and 150,- 000 bu oats. No export sales reported. There was a fair cash demand at Minneapolis, with No. 1 Northern 2¢ over May and No. 2 at May price. Min- neapolis stocks increased 175,000 bu for the week and Duluth increased 265,000 bu for the week. Receipts at Minneapo- lis were 144 cars, against a holiday. last year, and Duluth 31 cars. The late trading was active and the tone nervous. Cash houses were unani- mous in their reports of a very small trade in cash wheat, and Chicago re- ported no demand from the millers. A quite good export demand was noted late, however, New York reporting good sales of red wheat, with United King- dom buying some Duluth Northern, and Kansas City also reported some good sales. Prices sold down ‘an additional fraction, steadied and again sagged slightly, closing in a rather weak po- sition. May wheat d ined to 95%c, rallied to 96c, fluctuated between 95%c and 96e, and closed at 95%c sellers. July wheat advanced to 86%4c, declined to 85%c, was bid up to 86%@s64c, and again sagged, closing at 86c bid. Cash wheat. prices ruled weak and lower, under a very poor demand, and in a slow market. Primary receipts of wheat were 362,- 231 hu, with shipments of 252,655 bu, and locals receipts were 35,270 bu, with ship- ments of 38,830 bu. Seaboard clearances of wheat and flour,for the day were 261,000 bu and the week’s exports are reported by Brad- street at 2,283,000 bu. Corn was a very tame and coloriess affair, prices losing off in sympathy with wheat, and closing %4@%c lower. Cash corn also ruled easy. Corn clearances were 312,000 bu for the day and 845,000 bu for the week. Argentine shipments of corn were 24,00 bu. Primary receipts of corn were 534,560 bu, with shipments of 444,554 bu, and loen] receipts were 165,410 bu, with ship- ments of 100,830 bu. There were no sales of oats futures and the cash article ranged lower. Oats clearances were 50 bu. Primary receipts of oats were 609,744 bu, with shipments of 593,311 bu, and local receipts were 142,400 bu, with ship- ments of 49,160 bu. FLOU R—Receipts were ments, 70CO bbis.

This acid circulating through the system acts as an irritant to the different muscles, nerves, bones and tissues of the body, and produces the inflam- mation and swelling of the joints and the sharp, cutting pains character- istic of the disease. When the blood is overburdened with uric acid it continually grows weaker and more acrid, and poorer in nourishing qual- ities. Then Rheumatism becomes chronic, and not only a painful, but a formidable and dangerous disease. Sometimes the heart is attacked, the general health is affected, and the oils and fluids which lubricate the muscles and joints are destroyed by the acrid matter which the blood is constantly depositing in them ; the muscles shrink and lose their elastic- ity, the coating of the joints becomes hard and thick, and often the sufferer is left a hopeless cripple. §S.

Milwaukee Woman in Police Station Repudiates Help- meet for Affinity.

a THEN LOCKED IN CELL. =

Declaration Comes Just as Lieutenant Was About to Free Pair.

If Mrs. Clara. Meyer hadn’t talked so much she probably would not now be a prisoner in the Matron’s Deten- tion Room at Police Headquarters. Her presence there is due to her eager- ness to proclaim her undying love for James Mallen, with whom she eloped to St. Louis. Edward Meyer of Mil- waukée, her husband, had them arrest- ed here. Meyer intercepted letters from Mal- len, who was in Streator, Ill., to Mrs. Meyer, telling of the plan of elope- ment, and he took a fast train and beat the pair here. At the Union Station Meyer told Pa- trolman Biggio he wanted the couple ar- rested as they left the train. Takes Pair to Central. Biggio was in doubt,as to his author- ity. There would be no evidence of wrongdoing in Missouri, and Meyer had no proof of his identity or his wife’s. But Biggio consented to take the couple to the Central Station and let Lieut. Hess talk to them, Mallen, told Hess a satisfactory story. He denied there was an elopement, and said he had met Mrs. Meyer by chance on the train. Hess was on the verge of releasing them all when he turned to Mrs. Meyer and asked what she had to say. , “*Yes,’’ she burst out, “I love. this man’’ (pointing to Mallen) ‘‘and I hate that man’’ (pointing to Meyer) ‘‘and I won’t live with him. This man sent me money to meet him at Streator and come to St. Louis with him to live. He has treated me lots better than’ my hus- band.”’ Hess ordered Mrs. Meyer and her 18- months-old baby to the custody of the matron and Mallen to a cell. Mrs. Meyer is 27 years old, and Maller. is' 35. Meyer will ask for warrants against them. °
