Lauer, of Reading. Pa.,. delivered his address, which was as tollows: MR. PRESIDENT AND GENTLEMEN: In the month of June, 1#47, quet thirty-two years ago, Itookatrip West. In the course of my travels I visited this city of St. Louis, and stopped at the — Hotel. Adam Lemp and English & MeHose had at that time iittie brew- eries in the city, erected near acave, the nat- ural vault of which furnished an excellent place for the storege ot the production of their estab- lishments. The Harmony Garden and City | Camp Spring were in those days popular places oltresort. Scarcely the shadow of these places now iemains. Inthis mighty city of the West we see On all sides mousiter buildings, where thirty-two years ago were open lots and com- mons. The evidences of wealth and prosperity that appear before us bear testimeny to the great results acccomplished for our glori- ous country by foreign emigration. The sturdy Angio-Saxon and the thritty German are true Wp gene mg of progrsass, who bave built up the wide West—tue great granary to supply the ovger-populated coun- tries of the Old Worid. The brewing interests of the United. States have contributed in no smnalldegree to the material bappiness which we bave @njoyed as a nation. The popular walt beverages are supplanting the use of spirituous and intoxicating liquors, and we have developed into anation of progressive ideas and true moral worth. No thanks, how- ever, to the funatical temperance agitators, who, including .lager beer and other compounds of the saluteury malt and bops among THEIR OBJECTS OF ATTACK, bave keen obstaclesto the progress of true temperance. The people of this country must be educated in the use of mild beverages, such astbe life-giving lager, to bring about real temperance, and ao good can be accomplished by the passage of probibitory, funaticai laws, such as are contemplated by the so-called tem- perunce party. To give you a history of the brewing inter- ests, and the beneticial results of the use of brewed Iquors by the ancient Germans and Anglo-Saxons, 2,000 years ago, I would re- spectiully reter you to my addresses.delivered at former Drewers’' Conventions. For the bene- lit of those intem peraic fanatacs, whose desper- and violence have become se marked during the pastfew years, | would refer t tothe prohibition experience of. old Eagilan trom the year 1736 to 1743; alsoto THER LOCAL UPTION EXPERIENCE of the State of New York during the years 1846 and 1847. Il weutd also reterto the able mes. save of Governor Garcelon of Maine,in relation to Neal Dow’s hypocritical, fanatical prolib- itory law, urging ils ubsolute re- peal. Our worthy President Rueter, in his last year’s annual address delivered ' at Baltimore, gave youin vivid language tha. uwful and damaging eftects of the Neai Dow. law upon the morals of the humbugged, mis- guided people of Maine. In January, two years ngo, |tookatrip through the Southern States to Florida. In my Casual observations I noticed considerable drunkenness among the Freedmen. There were trequent rows and dis- interposition otf the the law. Four months ago | in visited the South, passing through Vir- ginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia. Everywhere I found PERFECT ORDER, PBACK AND HARMONY prevailing between the racés—whites and blacks—particulirly at Savannah, Macon, At lantau, Kome and Augusta, in the State of Georgia; likewise at Columbia and Charleston, S.C., Ralefgh, N.C., and Richmond, Va. The contrast between the condition of the country, as compared with thatoftwo years ago, was most remarkesble, and this great change was brought about by the general use of beer in niace of whisky. As Louisiana and Mississippi now disturbed by frequent outbreaka ong the people of those sectians, particular- ly tlie colored race, 1 would advise the brewers of the West tosend their surplus beer tH the troubled districts, which lam contident will restilt in @ Cessation of the negro exodus north.- ward.

What we now Want toensuvethe future happiness and prosperity of the country is the ennctment of liberal laws to induce the industrious classes of over-crowded Europe to flock to our shores, We want immigration for the purpose of build- ing up our towns and cities, developing our manufacturing enterprises, and cultivating the millions of fertile acres in this country now ly- ingidie. ‘The thrifty German is accustomed te his daily ration of beer. Intheland of his na- tivity he has bis parks and public gardena where family unions nd social gatherings take place amid the ecstatic influence of THE FOAMING LAGER. The English, Lrisb, Scotch, and people of other European countries are poted patrons of malt Jiquors. The greatest liberality should, tnerefore, be shown them in the indulgence in their customary beverages in the land of their adoption. With the more general use of malt liquors the hundreds of quack medicines now in the market will disappear, as it has been proved by experience in countries where malt Leverages are the populai drink, that health and longevity are marked fcatures, and dys- pepsia and chionic complaints are rare. ‘Tne tide of emigration 1s again swelling to this country.

At least so says the New York Express for him, and we think with some truth.

Tne Senate is taking hold of the question of the vote cast by small constituencies in Rhode Island and Mississippi. St. Louis would do well to take hold of herself and shake herselfup in this matter. Either one of our Congressional districts can cast a smaller vote than Rhode [sland or Missis- ippi can furnish, and the inference is obvi- ous and unpleasant. ~ THERE must have been quite an exodus of rebels or Confederates to Chicago. The Republican papers of that city insisted upon making the judicial elections a strict party fight, in consequence of which the Demo- cratic candidates were elected by a majori- ty of from 8,000 to 10,000. No wonder that the Globe-Democrat, in holy horror, ex- claims, “Where is the Republican party of Chicago?’ The echo is, Where? Wuy should Democratic Senators con- firm another Republican partisan Judge like McCrary? Why should they fight the’. yeto and honor and elevate the author of it? Have we not enough partisay Judges al- ready? Have we not enough Republicans on the Federal bench? What earthly difference does it make whether the Senate is Demo- cratic or Republican, if Democratic Sena- tors consent and submit to everything that a Republican President chooses to do? aaa aoe — “ ORYING circles in New York were very much excited over the conduct of Keene in pulling the favorite for the Withers stakes and running with an outside horse, but the highest authorities on sporting matters have laid down the law that an owner may win with any horse he prefers.

Bd 2 ugh with this campaign, there will ”e any number of people ready to believe that Mr. Rice was really a General in the rebel army, and now a candidate of the ‘‘Confederates’’—at least in the eyes of Re- publican partisans. ia Tur Brewers’ Convention is the chief local event of the day in St. Louis, and in giving the brewers welcome and congratu- lation we do it without feeling called on to make any apology or defense for their in- dustry. When one tries to estimate the benefit toa country by the substitution of light and harmless malt beverages, instead of fiery and maddening alcoholic drinks, the brewers of the United States are en- titled to a very high rank as public bene- factors. We hope that they will carry away pleasant impressions of our city, that they will continue to flourish in the future as they have done in the past, that they will keep on making better beer and more of it, and that, in the language of “Rip Van Winkle,’ they may live long and prosper. A MEMORIAL OF SHIELDS. In connection with the national loss we have sustained in the unexpected death of the veteran soldier and statesman, Gen. James Shields, whose career has been one of ceaseless activity and full of romantic incident, that proper portrait of the General in his riper years—as we knew and loved him—exists. This want was felt, and on the occasion we regret to know no of his return from Washington afew months ago some of his friends—and who that knew the charming and genial old man but became a friend ?—proposed a subscription and spoke to one of our St. Louis artists on the sub- ject of éxecuting a large full-length por- trait. Theterms were all agreed upon, the subscription was to have been made during the summer, the General was to be request- ed to give the necessary sittings and the portrait to have been publicly presented in the fall. The presentation can never be made, nor his friends charmed by the genial eloquence with which he so well knew how to bright- en such an occasion, but his death makes the want of some lasting memorial, some- thing to recall him as he so lately stood among us, but the more keenly felt. Though portrait can yet be made by an artist who knew the General in life and the painting now no sittings can be had, a given to decorate the halls of the Capitol at Jefferson City, an ornament for our legis- lative building and atribute to the memory of a good man and patriotic citizen of Mis- souri. We understand that the artist who was to have executed the portrait knew General Shields, saw him on the occasion of his last visit among us, and, aided by the photo- eraphic likenesses which exist, his memory will doubtless be able to give ing monument to gladden theggyes of his contemporaries, and to hand down to their children the features of the brave and pure Irish-born American who, a General in two wars, a Senator from three States anda polcer of other high positions, died poor— rich only in unsullied glory, the proud record of an unswerving devotion to his country, and a spotless integrity.

The Hazard of Putting Your Money Into Other People’s Hands. How Far Shért Promises to Payin Full Have Come. A Record Far More Instructive than Pleasant. St. Louis has eertainly had her share of bank failures since the _ panic of 1873, but in the actual amount of money lost in such’disasters she is not behind other large cities of the country. The failure of banks here, as elsewhere in the United States during the last decade, has been owing, in a large degree, to the general skrinkfige of values. In some notable cases, however, other causes less legitimate have played a pert. There was no bank failure in St. Louis be- tween 1870 and 1873. Since 1870 the following banks have keen in existence; some of them remain, but nearly halfof them have passed away: Bank of Commerce, Biddle Market, Boatmen’s Savings, Bremen Savings, Butchers’ and Drovers’, Central Savings, Citizens’ Savings, Commercial Bank, Ex- change Bank, First National, Fourth National, Fourth Street Bank, Franklin Savings, Freedmen’s National Savings, Ger- man Bank, German Savings Institution, Has- kell Bank, Home Savings, International Bank, Lucas Bank, Manufacturers’ Savings, Mee chanics’ Bank, Merchants’ National, Metro- politan Savings, National Bank of Missouri, National Loan Bank, North St. Louis Savings, Provident Savings, Real Estate Savings, Sec- ond National, State Savings, St. Louis Nation- al, Third National, Traders’ Bank, Mercantile sank, Bank of North America, Union Say- ings, City Savings, Union National, United States Savings, Iron Mountain Bank, Clerks’ Savings, Valley National, Security, Lafayette Savings, Loker Bank, Guardian Savings, Bartholow, Lewis & Co., Broadway Savings, Continental Bank, Exchange Bank, Lafayette Bank, Farmers and Traders’, Hibernia, Mullanphy Savings, West St. Louis Savings, Capital Bank, German-American Bank. Of the many of these banks that have passed out of existence only a portion have been fail- ures, in the accepted sense of the word. The Capital Bank, the Empire Bank, the Security sank, the Lucas Bank, the Home Savings and others have ceased to do business, but in doing so they have gone into honorable liqui- dation and have paid all their debts in full. The first shock that fell upon St. LO": banks was the great panic of 1873. In Sep- tember of that year the ware struck this city, and every bank, by general agree- ment, closeg -tis doors. But while in New ¥Yerk and other larze cities some ¢f the heaviest banking houses sank into everlasting ruin, there was nota bank in St. Louis that did not open its doors and resume business after the first shock ofthe panic was over. The effect. however, remained; wounds had been inflicted from which there could never be a recovery. These, added to bed management, speculation and actftal rascality, brought the disasters which must re- main a disgrace to the city for years and years to come. Standing first and probably most prominent in the series of great failures is THE PEOPLE’S SAVINGS BANK, which closed on the 50th of January, 1875. It was situated on the corner of Park and Ca- rondelet avenues, and was founded in 1857, with a capital stock of only $50,000. At the time of the suspension its paid-up capital was $69,500. The directors were Theo. Kalb, Bernard Lager, Ferd. Herold, J. M. Wolke, James Taussig and Edmund Wuerpel. ‘The cashier Was Edmund Wuerpel,who cametoSt. Louis in 1862, being first employed im the Quartermaster’s Department of the United States Army at Jefferson Barracks. He was the direct cause of the failure. On the morn- ing of January 31 the following notice appear- ed upon the doors of the bank: ‘*The default and disappearance of the cashier of this bank compels it to close its doors. As soon as an examination of the bank is made we will inform our depositors and stockholders.’’ This was not a satisfactory assurance to de- positors, and the consequence was that a very angry crowd gathered about the bank and made some rather violent demonstrations. Wuerpel acted most disgracefully. He had been speculating with the funds in his charge, and to escape the just indignation of those who had put their confidence in him, fled the country, leaving his wife and childrenin a helpless condition. He went to Mexico and has never been ap- prehended and punished. The time deposits of the bank were $800,000, and the current deposits $1 49,000, making a total of $949,000. An assignment was madetoJohn H. Fisse, who paid a dividend of only seven and a half cents. The depositors were mostly poor people and the loss fell very heavily upon them. not only injuring individuals but doing great damage to the business and prosperity of the city. THE GUARDIAN SAVINGS BANK. On the 22d of February, 1876, a notice ap- peared in the papers to the effect that the Guardian Savings Bank would have to tem- porarily close its doors, owing to a suit that had been filed by one Jane Gorman. it had been suspected for some time that the affairs of the institution were not in a prosperous condition, though when first or- ganized in 1873 it was quite popular. Its charter was for ninety-nine years, so that it started out quite pretentiously. The first president was Mr. Bernard J. Reilly, whose unfortunate failure is supposed to have had a bad effect upon the bank. It opened its doors again after the suspension of Feb. 22, 1876, and for some time the officers tried to make some arrangement withthe Hibernia by which a fair and legitimate liquidation might be had. But this plan fell through, and _ the directors continued to hold meetings till March, 1878, though the bank had long since ceased to do business. The capital stock was $250,000, but only 10 per cent of this was paid up at the time of suspension. it is now claimed by the directors, or some of them, at least, that a satisfactory settlement has been made with all the depos- itors, but some of the depositors claim that no settlement at all has been made. It has been only a few days since a depositor named Gal- lagher filed a suit against the directors, claim- ing that he had been paid little more than nothing on a deposit of $4,000. THE CENTRAL SAVINGS BANK. This was one of the worst failures the city has had. On July 7,1876, a notice ap- peared on the doors of the bank stating that circumstances had compelled a temporary suspension. The directors were Henry J.

The deposits at the time of the fail- ure were $1,250,000, and the receiver has paid two dividends, one of 5 per cent and another of 10 per cent, making only 15 per cent in all. It is not expected that more than 5 per cent additional can ever be realized. The assets of. the bank were found to be almost entirely frittered away, a portion of the dividends having been secured by recourse on the stockholders, THE GERMAN BANK, situated on the corner of Fifth and Market, failed on the lithof July, 1877. The board of directors passed a resolution on the 10th to the effect that, as they were doinga losing business, it was better to close up. The bank bad an authorized capital of $1,000,000, but the paid-up capital was only $300,000. The direetors were: C. A. Stifel, A. Krieckhaus, P. Weiss, Dr. F. Hill, Jos. Lindenschmidt, J. F. Peters, L. Bauman, Aug. Donk, E. Keuhn, Charles Seitz, Chas. Lichter and Chas. Wesler. The bank had at one time done a fine business, the deposits having been as high as $1,600,000, but at the time of suds- pension, the deposits were only $210,000. An assignment was made to Mr. C. A. Stifel, one of the directors, who has paid two dividends—one on January 1, 1878, and one on January 1, 1879; one of forty cents, the other of twenty cents, making sixty cents in all. | NATIONAL BANK OF THE STATE OF MISSOURI. It has been said that a national bank cannot fail, but this has been proved, by numerous instances, to be untrue. The National Bank of Missouri was first, and has been the only national bank tofailin St. Louis. The announcement of the suspension on June 20, 1877, came like a thunderbolt not only upon the city, but upon the State and the whole West. The bank was one of the oldest West of the Miss- issippi, having been founded upon the old State Bank, which had a capital of $3,400,000. Some of the wealthiest and most distinguished men of the city had been connected with it, and it was regarded by the people as absolutely sound. No bank had beenmore public-spirited than the National Bank of Missouri, but this very virtue was turned into a fault by being carried too far, and was probably the principal cause of the failure. The nominal capital was $2,- 560,000, and the stockholders were distributed all over. the State. When it closed its liabilities were set down at $2,387,000 exclusive of stock, and the nomunal assets amounted to $5,000,000. Most of the depos- itors were people of means and were better able to bear the misfortune than those who had lost money in the Central Savings and the People’s Bank, Mr. Waiter S. Johnson was appointed receiver by the Government and has paid three’ dividends amounting in the aggregate to fifty cents. It is expected that twenty-five cents additional will be paid, making a total of 75 cents. TIE BUTCHERS’ AND DROVERS’ BANK, situated at the northeast corner of Fifth and Morgan, failed July 13, 1877, only two days after the German Bank suspended. It was organized in 1867, and had a capital of #4™,- 000, 30 per centof wuich bad been paid up. The deposits amounted to $980,000. The gen- eral public was much surprised by the catastrophe,forthe bank had been held in high esteem and had done a large business. Tne deposits, however, had fallen off greatly since the January previous,and confidence had been shakenin well-posted financial circles. On the day after the suspension Mr. B.M. Cham- bers, president of the bank, published a card in his paper, the St. Louis Times, in which he said that he had every reason to believe that depositors would be paid in. full and that certain of his relativés had agreed to give deeds of trust of several thousand dollars’ No as- Mr. Chambers has remained assets from the begin- expected ¢to make the with creditors. Some suspension he _ issued of the and is settlement after the with the assurance that it would be redeemed. This scrip is now worth about 50 cents onthe dollar, sothat it dees not now appear after nearly two vears have elapsed that depositors will get even 50 cents on the dollar. The failure fell very hard upon great it to creditors, blow to the city. THE NORTH ST. LOUIS SAVINGS closed its doors on July 16, 1877, following closely the Butchers’ and Drovers’. The sus- pension was owing toa heavy run of deposi- tors, but the bank was destined to go under sooner or later, as it was not in a prosperous condition. It had been organized in 1860, with a capital of $50,000, ten per cent of which had been paid up. deposits amounted to $ 690,000, being hela mostly by Germans and men do- ing asmall business. The directors selected Mr. J. H. Dieckman as assignee, and he has since paid dividends to the amount of 32cents. He does not hope to pay more than 50 cents. THE FARMERS’ AND TRADERS,. This bank was situated at Twenty-second and Market. It closed in February, 1877. The direct cause of the failure is supposed to have been the defaleation of Cashier Rudolph H. Dreyer, who had been engaged in some dis- astrous speculations. The affairs of the bank have been settled and Dreyer is now in the city jail awaiting his trial. THE REAL ESTATE SAVINGS, This bank was situated on Olive between Sixth and Seventh. W. Rh. Pye was the pres- ident and D. H. Naylor the cashier, and the directors were Robert Wade, EK. A. Manny, D. H. Naylor, T. S. Smith, J. G. Russell, W.R. Pyeand W. F.Cozzens. It closed December 28, 1877, and on the 24th of January following 8. J. Fisher was appointed signee. The liabilities of the institution were $320, - 000, and the assets were placed at $380,000, so that it was confidently expected that deposi- tors would be paid in full. Up to this time Mr. Fisher has paid two dividends, one of 20 per cent, another of 10 per cent, making 30 per cent in all. He believes he will be able to pay 100 cents on the dollar. THE LOK“R BANK. This was a private institution, and was or- vanized and doing business at 201 North Sec- ond street for twenty-eight years. It was owned by Geo. H. Loker & Bro., and had ranked high years previous in commercial cir- cles. An assignment was made to Mr. W. C. The liabilities amounted to $175,000, and the assets were placed at $220,000. It * was confidently asserted at the time of the failure that depositors would be paid in full, but Mr. Marshall bas paid a dividend of only 3 per cent and now declares he will not be able to pay more than 50 cents altogether. THE BROADWAY SAVINGS is last, but unfortunately not least of the great bank failures that huve occurred in St. Louis since 1873. The details of its suspension“reé fresh in the minds of the public, and it is not necessary to call atten to them, further than to say that the deposits are $700,000,and that the prospects are good for a smaller dividend than that obtained by the creditors of the People’s Bank. The cashier, J. Phil. Krieger, Jr., is now in jail. The case of the U. 8.

Raum, United States Commissioner of Internal Revenue, was in the eity, and a guest of Collector Sturgeon, a Post-DISPATCH reporter called at the Sturgeon mansion, No. 913 Garrison avenue, last evening, and sent up his card requesting an interview. Mr. Raum was inand would be pleased to see the scribe in the back parlor, was the message re- turned by a servant,and following the liveried guide the parlor designated was reached and Commissioner Raum found. ' MOONSHINING. ‘*Pleased to see you, sir,’’ was the polite greeting, and after a few commonplace re- marks the PostT-DIsrpaTCHn man asked if there was a great amount of illicit distilling being done at present throughout the country. ‘*It is very quiet,’’ was the Commissioner’s reply; ‘‘there is not one-half as much illicit distilling in operation to-day as there was some years ago. The business can never be quite rooted out, for men will make whisky, law or no law, and in many regions they would rather defraud the Government out ofa few dollars’ tax than do an henest deed. They seem to delight in setting the law at defi- ance.’’ ‘*Where is the greater part of the illicit dis- tilling done?’’ **The business is carried on principally in the two Virginias, two Carolinas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas and this State, to a very slight extent, though, in both this State and Arkansas. I bave under my supervision at the present time one hundred and twenty-six collection offices,and my men watch everything very closely. It has almost become an impos- sibility for a man to work a still a fortnight without it':coming to my knowledge, and then itis but a matter of time that my men will secure him. Some parties violate the revenue law through ignorance, many of the old Ken- tucky and Tennessee moonshiners never hav- ing heard that there was a heavy penalty for so doing. but afew trips to.a neighborhood and seiggres apprise them of their grave er- ror.’? . THE GRANT BOOM. ‘What do you think of the Grant movement, Mr. Raum/?’’ queried the reporter, changing the subject very suddenly. ‘*Well, it is premature, to say the least,and when that is said there remains but little more to ke said. The movement is, or seems to me to be, losing ground, and by another year General Grant’s name may not be mentioned at all in connection with the Presidency. Several of the leading journals are endeavoring to keep his name be- fore the public, and one of them in particular, the New York Herald, has taken the trouble and expense to have one of its staff accom- pany him on bis trip around the world, but I cannot see that there is any special boom to his prospects for another term. And then again Gen. Grant might not accept the office, if tendered him. He isa strange man, you know. SHERMAN TITE MAN, ‘¢To-day Secretary Sherman’s chances for being the next President are far better than those of Gen. Grant.’’ ‘*Why are they better?’’ ‘*For several reasons. One is thatSecretary Sherman’s financial system has endeared him tothe South. Another is that he has found favor among the people of the West, and it is almost conceded that the next President will be chosen out of the West, and again there are so many staunch Republicans who, though finding no fault with General Grant, would support Sherman instead, through their existing prejudices again a third term.”’ BLAINE. ‘*Do you deem Secretary Sherman stronger than either Blaine or Conkling?’’’ “ol . Ge. Biaine would undoubtedly carry the Eastern States—the extreme Eastern ones and perhaps two or three of the Northern ones, and as many Western ones, but he is not looked up to as a party leader, as he was some time ago. CONKLING. **Roscoe Conkling would carry Pennsylvania and perhaps New York, but not the country. He 1s not a man of the people,and thatis what is required to-day. The radical Republi- cans, nextto Grant, would choose Blaine, and, failing to secure his nomination, would accept Conkling as a substitute, but, Grant declining, Sherman would receive the suffrages of the masses. Sherman is the coming man at present, though time works wondgys and one vear may be amply sufficient to bring outa dark horse as yet unspoken of.’’ HAYES AND A SECOND TERM. ‘*What are President Hayes’ chances for a second term ?’’ ‘‘TIayes would not accept. He has had enough of political life, and does not desire a second term. Then, again, he is too positive to please his party in every essential. Mr. Haves will not dream of aspiring to the White House for another four years. ’’ BABCOCK. ‘*While discussing political matters, Com- missioner, will you express your opinion as to what Gen. Babcock’s fate would be if put on trial to-day, minus the backing of the Ad- ministration and Whisky Ring?’’ ‘*No, I do not hold that it is right for me to speak of the matter. The Babcock case is over with three years and better, and is almost for- gotten. Hehas been acquitted and there is no use of reviving the matter and causing it to be raked over again and fanned into a brisk flame. If his. trial had been at the present time and under the present existing circum- stances the verdict might have been differ- ent.’’ RETURNING PROSPERITY. **Do you note any change for the better in the general improvement of the country and an- ticipate areturn to prosperity in the near future?’’ ‘*] do most assuredly. There is a desire manifested by both parties to improve the rivers and harbors of the country, especially of the West and South, and to erect light-hous- es. There is not so much talk of Government railways and canals, which is _ cer- tainty sensible. The Southern Pa- citi agitation will soon cease to be a\bone of contention, as it is being rapidly peskee farward to completion by private en- terprise at the rate of two miles per day. A canal is deemed expedient from Roek Island to Lake Michigan, and will some day be built, but no® within a generation at least. The sucoess of the jetties has attracted m6 little at- ion to the Mississippi Valley, and the swift efficient ‘improvements that will > made in the Western rivers on that account will be most gratifying. **The Government is manifesting a desire to own its own offices, and will shortly begin erecting buildings for that purpose in many cities. ‘*ThefCustom- house and Postoflice here will be pushed forward, and suitable buildings for the transaction of its business will be put up in cities of from ten to fifteen thousand inhabitants throughout the country.

Conservative Capital Turning To- ward Mining Riches. Fifty Millions of Silver in Sight in a Single Mine. Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. NEw YORK, June 1.—One of the most ex- traordinary developments of New York life within the last year has been the mining fevef which is now raging here. Thenew Constitu- tion of California appeara to have even fn- creased its intensity,for it has made New York the great center of mining speculation. Peo- ple who bave never seen a mine in their lives invest hundreds of thousands on the strength of reports made by mining experts, and the large fortunes recently made by such ventures appear to have infected the most staid and humdrum people with the desire to amassa quick fortune by a vyenture in one of the favorite mining stocks. Last week the sales on the mining exchange aggregated 200, - 128 shares, and the number of transactions in this uncertain form of security 1s steadily in- creasing. I say uncertain, for, of course, a mining share quoted to-day at $5 may be $300 next week, or it may only be fifty cents. Still, in justice to mining stocks, it. must be said that every day they appear to acquire a greater element of permanency, solidity and security. The value of the great quartz silver minés, which are now the leading attractions, appears to be as plainly measurable ds the quantity of grain in an elevator. The indications of the presence of the precious metal have been reduced to such a fine point that the veriest novice can, by looking at the appearance ofa vein, or by studying an ex- pert’s report (provided always the latter be truthful), tell with perfect accuracy how much silver there is in the mine. The whole matter of speculation in mines, indeed, is fast losing its character of uncertainty, and is being re- duced to as ‘‘fine’’ a point as the produce or dry goods business. You will see the most ‘*solid,’’ the staidest, the * ‘old fogiest’’ men of New York buying shares in mines which they have never seen, and out of which they are confident of realizing large fortunes. The first business men of New York, men who have a life-long reputation for care, thrift, prudence and conservatism, place themselves at the head of the new mining enterprises which are engaging the attention of the believers in this class of investments. THE HORN SILVER MENE, Let me give you an illustration. Mr.Charles G. Francklyn, the representative of the Cun- ard Steamship Company in this country, has always been reckoned as being among our ablest and most successful business men. He is anephew of Mr. Cunard, the founder] of this great house of world-wide fame, and has for nearly twenty years managed the business of the Cunard line in this country witha suc- cess Which has made his name svynonimous with safety, caution and wise forethought. Through his marriage Mr. Francklyn, who is an Englishman, allied himself with one of the oldest and proudest families in New York,and it may well be said thatin point of business reputation no one stands higher than he. Now Mr. Francklyn has bought a controlling inter- est in the Horn Silver + Mine of Frisco, Beaver County, Utah, of whose marvellous store of precious metal the most astonishing reports have been made by the leading mining experts of the country. A company has been organized with a capital of ten million doilars for the development of the mine, which, according to all the experts, contains an almest inexhaustible wealth of ore. The capital and stock is divided into four hundred thousand shares of the par value of twenty-five dollars each. Associated with Mr. Francklyn in the management of the en- terprise is Mr. Frank G. Brown, who from his relation with Brown Bros., the famous bankers, and from being the son of ex-Rapid Transit Commissioner Brown, belongs to one of the best families in New York, both as re- gards social standing or business reputation, and who is Vice-President of the company. SOME SURPRISING FIGURES. i have some of the numerous elaborate re- ports before me made by Prof. Newberry, of the School of Mines, W. A. Hooker, E. M., Hienry Cummins, Franklin Piatt, Assistant State.Geologist of Pennsylvania, R. N. Clark and others. Let me give you a few figures of these reports, which have been personally vouched for to me by other experts besides those mentioned above. Thus far, itappears, only 26,000 tons of ore have been taken out of the mine, for the reason that the transporta- tion facilities to York, the nearest railroad terminus, are so insuflicient that ore accumu- lates too fast on the ground. The Horn Silver Mine, near Frisco, is about 225 miles from Salt Lake City, in Beaver county, Utah, and seventy-five miles from York. The Utah Southern Railroad is now operated as far as York, and the owners of the mine and the Union Pacific Railroad are now jointly building a special railroad from York to Frisco for the transportation of ore. This railroad is to be opened in October, and while at pres- ent, owing to these insufficient transportation facilities, only 100 tons of ore are taken out per day, 200 or 260 tons per day will be taken out as soon as the railroad isin operation. It is estimated that, at the rate of 200 tons daily production, the ore-mass now in sight. and which has been carefully measured, wouid not be exhausted for seven years. Deducting all expenses of crushing, smelting, refining, etc., the net profit has been found to be, in this mine, at least, $35 per ton; sothat net yield, at 200 tons per day, would be over $2,500,000 perannum. Some ofthe experts place the figures very much higher and estimate the probable net vield of the mine from next Oc- tober at over $3,000,000 per annum. At pres- ent there are 513,000 tons of ore actually in sight, according to the measurements of Mr. Hooker, who is a very conservative expert in his figures, or nearly $ 18,000, - 000 worth of silver net. Mr. Hooper measures the average width of the ore body at only 50 feet and thus arrives at the above -gure, while others (and Mr. Franklyn, who has just returned from a personal inspec- tion of the mine and examined it very care- fully for two weeks, accompanied by a large staff of mining experts, agrees with them, ) place the average width at over 100 feet. FIFTY MILLIONS IN SIGHT. I had a very interesting conversation with Mr. Franklyn on the subject yesterday, and he informed me that he was fully convinced this was the largest silver mine in the world, and that fifty millions of silver gross were now actually in sight. Thus far- the mine has only be2n sunk 283 feet, and while some of the other great silver mines have also yielded fifty millions of siver (gross) atadepth of 2,000 feet, that amount is al- -ready to-day in sight in the Horn Silver mines within a depth of less than 300 feet. The mine being entirely dry and dusty even in its lowest (the nhfth) level, experts agree that it can pe sunk to 1,000 feet depth before any wa- ter will be met with. The locality altogether is so dry that now the drinking water for the miners has to be conveyed in pi es fora distance of fourteen miles, and Messrs. Franck- lyn and Brown are now establishing large water-works on the ground. Another inter- esting fact is that, within a few days, Frisco has sprung up from a mere wilderness as lonely as the desert of Sahara to a flourishing mining town of 1,500 people, with two large stores of stone, a fine stone hotel, no church, thirteen groggeries,and every evidence of min- ing prosperity. All these 1,500 people are, .in one way or another, dependent ‘om “the mine. At present the ore is shipped to Chicago, where the _ refining works of the company are situated at — the junction of Lumber and West Twelfth streets, but Mr. Francklyn says that by refining the ore right at Frisco a very large saving will be effected. Mr. Francklyn expects that the eompany will pay regular dividends of at least fifty cents per month per share from next Oc- tober, or nearly twenty-five per cent on the par value of the stock for years to come. I believe all these facts will prove interest- ing to that large portion of the St. Louis pub- lig who are already interested in the im- mense mining future of this country. Here in New York it is quite certain that for the next ten years the largest fortunes made will be in mining investments. week the shares of the Bodie mine, on re- ports of new discoveries rose from $24 5D to $50.

A letter of Hobart Pasha to Mr. Braasey, M. P., is published ia the London Times, re- iterating his opinion that small vessels are best for fighting purposes. He says: ‘**What we want are small, heavily-armed, fast ves- sels, that can, asit were, ‘hop round their enemy like a cooper round a cask,’ hitting him on every vulnerable point, shelling his decks at long range, and worrying him to death. Of course, the small! vessels would be liable toa hard knock now and then; but you carnot goto warin kid gloves. As to bom- barding forts, rely on it in these days of thirty-five tons in masked batteries, or bat- teries cased with thirty inches of iron, the idea is obsolete—no sane man would think of such athing.

The best illustration of what bad whisky will do was exemplified this morning in the First District Police Court in the case of William Mc- Carron, 25 years of age, charged with dis- turbing the peace. William’s mother, Bridget McCarron, took the witness stand and told how that, on yesterday afternoon, while she was lying ‘in bed, William entered her room with a hatchetin his hand. Grasping her by the throat he said, **Mother, Il must you,’’ and before’ she could stay his hand be had dealt her a biow inthe wouth with the hatchet, knocking out two of her front teeth. After receiving the blow the woman grappled with her son and wrested the hatchet from him. This morning, Willtam, when asked to say what he knew about the af- fair, pleaded guilty to everything that his mother had said, but vowed that he was so drunk at the time that he did not remember what be was doing. The Court, af- ter hearing the case, laid the matter over until the 5th inst.,in order to further investigate and see whetber or not it is acase forthe grand jury. Both parties tothe suit live on Papin, near Twentieth street. ‘Funny Business. Andrew Edener lives at No. 2627 Clara street. A few months ago Andrew rented part of his house to one Jenny Schindler. Last night Jenny had compuny, and Andrew thought they were making toomuch noise. So he secured a good big club and started for the entrance to Jenny’s rooms for the purpose ot effectually siler.cing her and her friends. He knocked on the door, and the moment Jenny opened it he began an onslaught on her and her company with aclub. Forthis queer conduct Judge Jecko found Mr. Edener guilty $1 disturbing the peace, and assessed a fine of 00. The Last Body.

Rombauer, to whom was referred the Alexander as Receiver of the Columbia Life, to-day, files his report in that matter, The evidence produced was first the petition of L. E. Alexander, asking leave to sell Davis farmtoJ. 8. Miller, and the testimony of certain real estate experts and others bear- ing onthatsale. This testimony,the referee says, was calculated to give rise to all sorts‘ot a and surmises; stiil it proves nothing while taken by itself The difiiculty all grows out of the transfers of thefDuvis farin, which was the property of the Columbia life, but which, it is alleged, Alex- ander traded on as his individual property. A corrupt intent on the part of Mr. Alexander, as will be seen, the referee does not consider clearly proven by the testimony. The negotiation of the trade which the Davis farm entered is a very complex one, a number of differ- ing statements being made about by dillerent parties concerned. Its reasona- ble market value was $1,500. The referee R. E. into | States that in his belief,when Alexander heard ofthe trade he repudiated it,although it was made by his agents. It could only bave been made on the sup- position that Daniels, the purchaser of the Davis farm and some wild land in Reynolds | county, WAS MISINFORMED as to the value of the Davis tarm. The only blame, to still quote fromthe re- not at once break off all connection with the agents and parties of doubtfal or else whose power distinguish between trust and property was very dim. Daniels held on to the farm and found a purchaser by the Pell, who agreed to pay him $2,300 in cash, while all this time the larm was osten- sibly belonging to another nan named Miller. Alexander knew that Daniels was the real purchaser. When the order of Court permit- ting the sale was obtained, Miller, Daniels and Pell met at the Receiver’s Office to consummate the sale. That is, Daniels was totake the $2,300 trom Pell and pass over $1,500 of it to the receiver. Bell, before paying the money, wanted toseethe hennards, on whose advice he relies, and THE RECBKIVER’S CLERK accompanied him to their place and to the law Thom — to explain that the title was all right. he trade with Pell fell through owing to the objections of Mr. Thomp- son, and Daniels swears the margin of $8vVU0 protit would have gone to Miller, while Miller distinctly swears Daniels, The report states, it was to have gone to in conclusion, that the testimony does not disclose that Mr. Alexander im- Mr. of the agent. knowledge had personal of his the | it | individual finally name | yroper conduct tombauer says ‘*his testimony his own behalfis free from that apparent de- sign to hide something whichjcharacterizes the testimony of most of his witnesses, and furth- eracorruptintent in dealing with inferences above stated.
