Cnicaco, June 4.—The test vote of yester- day was the first event of the con- vention to formally and with certainty indicate the attitude ot the various State dele gat ions and the individual delegates towards particular candidates. WHAT THE TEST VOTE SHOWS. While that vote utterly dissipated the possi- bility of Grant’s nomination on the first ballot it yet showed that Grant has a formidable strength and, with nearly one-half the votes in the conven- tion, may vet get enough to secure his nomi- nation when the grand break occurs. THE ILLINOIS VOTE COUNTED FORGRANT. lt must be remembered that in the 318 votes tor Grant the. forty-two votes of Illinois were counted solid tor him. Should the majority report of the Committee on Credentials be adopted there will bea loss of 18 tor Grant and a corre- positive strength of Grant to 300. A HUNDRED VOTES LOST. By the New York and Pennsylvania defec- tions Grant loses twenty-three votes in each State, a total of forty-six, and according to the statement of Mr. McManus, the leading bolter from Pennsylvania, the Pennsylvania revolt will receive an accession of two more when it comes to balloting. Counting these forty-eight votes with the scattering losses in various States, such as the loss of one in Missouri, two in Alabama and sever- al in North Carolina and Texas and so on, which were confidently counted for Grant a week ago, there has been au actual loss of about 100 votes for Grant. BOTH SIDES CLAIM A VICTORY. Both parties here claim to be greatly en- couraged over the test vote, butitis evident that there is an increase of en- thusiasm among Biaine’s followers, while a strengthened confidence along the Grant line is not by any means so appar- ent. Nevertheless the Grant men continue resolute, and hope, by presenting a solid frent through a series of ballots, to discourage lesser rivals “and capture their votes. FRYE TRIUMPHANT. While taking his coffee at the Grand Pacific this morning Mr. Frye, of Maine, exultingly said that the vote was a marked triumph for Blaine and showed that Grant’ nomina- tion was absolutely impossible. Blaine would begin to gain votes after the first ballots. He had, he said, positive assurance that at least thirty-five or forty votes cast for Grant on the first ballot would go to Blaine onthe second. These recruits would come from Alabama, Louisiana, Texas and other Southern States. Frye said turther that there would be no break in the Blaine ranks that his followers were per- sonally devoted to him, and would stay until the last ditch was reached. CHARGES OF CORRUPTION. The Grant men continue to insinuate or charge directly that Blaine emissaries, fur- nished with Jay Gould’s money, are engaged in corrupt efforts to reinforce their strength trom the Grant column. What Collector Rosenblatt said on this matter a day or two ago Roscoe Conkling répéated in effect last night in bie speech at the Grand Pacific, when ke charged thiy agaiast ' | - ) 7 . 7 : - — * * | * * 9 e * P » 5 Blaine: We have no tunds_ supplied by the railroads with which to Provide the means.

We are obliged to operate the campaign without the modern improvements [laughter], but we will neyer despair on account of those discouragements but will push on to victory, confident of suc- cess.’’ THE INTER-OCEAN ON THE SITUATION. In the same spirit evinced by the great Conkling the Inter-Ocean of this morning makes the following charge: The tactics that are used by the Blaine men to get votes are below and be- yond apy trick that was ever beforeheard of in a Republican eonvention. ' BRIBERY. It is reported that yesterday a Blaine man from the North approached a col- ored man from the South and, taking him back into a corner, said, ‘‘I will giv@you $250 it you will vote for Blaine. The colored man looked at the temp- tation fora moment aud said in response, I will give you $250 to vote tor Grant.’’ lou can’t buy me,“ said the white man, And you can’t buy me,“ replied the colored man. ‘‘And, further- more, said he, If I hear of your making such à proposition again 1 will get up in the convention and expose it. Several cases of attempted bribery are reported, and a good deal of money is said to be ready to be used just be- fore the vote is taken. The men who are | handling this money are known and are being watched. The Prince Leopold, Special to the Post-Dispaten. CHICAGO, June 4.—At ten o’clock this morn- ing a nice, dandyish-looking fellow of about 22 years in appearance quietly passed through the stage entrance of the convention hallin company with Judge Robertson, of New York, and one or two others, and took his seat on the raised platform. He is Prince Leopold, who has just ar- rived and who possibly hopes by his presence to boost the boom of tne Duke of America. A casual survey of this imperial youngster shows him to be an exceedingly blonde gentieman, with cerulean blue eyes, about ve feet eig ut, slim but athletic, with a medium bead cropped painfully close by the barber’s shears, a feeble moustache struggling for exis- tence on a narrow lip which vainly tries to conceal a row of glistening teeth. His expres: sion is decidedly Germanic. He wears a suit ot English gray cloth and keeps his legs erossed just lixe we Americans. His demeanor ‘was exceedingly modest ana gentlemanly. Tre delegates and spectators generally did no to be aware of the im- | perial presence Foe “demonstration or general sign of recognition occurred. — —--—— _ Reviewing the Situation, Speclal to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, June 4.—The great result of the week upto this houris the abandonment of the unit rule. The Grant leaders saw their weakness so plainly that they made no contest at all. DRAMATIC INCIDENTS. There were several dramatic incidents in the test vote, which was really the funeral ot the unit rule. The Alabama delegation, by their chairman, cast the full vote of the State for Sharpe’s substitute, whereupon a colored delegate protested, and his vote was recorded No.“ The calling of Kentucky resulted in the event of the_ session. The chairman reported the vote as 24 for the substitute. But Mr. Hubbard jumped upon sponding gain for the otner side, reducing the | jumpe a chair and in stentorian tones protested against the reeord being made. There was great contusion, and he could not be heard ex- cept to say that there were four delegates from Kentucky who desired to vote no. There were cries of Show yourselves, show yourselves.’’ Whereupon three other delegates sprang up on chairs, and the four exclaimed, ‘‘ We are the stalwarts of Kentucky.’’ This demon- stration of nerve and pluck brought down the house. There was long and loud applause and waving ot handkerchiefs and ¢xultant shouts. In vain the chairman pounded the desk with bis ga g * but there are six now. ~~ % report .

SANDERS, . —— — SICILIAN CRIME. A Wealthy Citizen Abducted, and Mur- dered Because His Friends Could Not Raise His Ransom. {Rome Correspondence Lendon Standard. On the 19th of April (writes the correspond- ent), towards 7 o’clock in the evening, an enormous crowd filled the Corso Vittorio Emanuele, the Piazza San Francesco and all the adjacent streets. In the ex-convent of San Francescothe Court of Assizes is now held. There, after atrial iasting eleven aays, the jury had just pronounced their verdict on the prisoners accused of being concerned in the murder of Giuseppe Catalfamo and the Judge had passed sentence on them. Within the court the scene was strikingly horrible. In the hemicycle in front of the magistrates and the jury and exactly opposite the seat of the public prosecutor, stood an iron cage, within which were buddled eighteen of the twenty prison- ers. The other two stood at au iron railing in front of the cage, each of them surround. ed by a group of three carbineers, armed to the feat to protect them from their fellow- ‘criminals, who, it was feared, might attempt to murder them in revenge for certain revela- tions they had made, The words of con- demnation were no sooner prouounced than Mutolo~one of those upon whom sentence of death bad been passed—burst forth into imprecations against one of his accomplices who had borne Witnesss against him, and then into the most violent menaces against the judges and the jury. Ibis was the signal for a bideous out- ery from the rest. Some of the human tigers within the cage howled and yelled with im- potent fury and dismay; others wept and sob- bed aloud; one man fell to the grouod like. one stunned; another struggied and foamed in convulsions; oaths and blasphemies were hurled forth like stones against the re- a gene they of the law, anda deep murmur through the horror-stricken crowd of spectators. : At Cefalu, a small Sicilian seaport on the northern coast of the island, about halt be- tween Palermo and Messia, there lived a rich family nomed Catalfamo who cultivated their own estate, which lay at a short distance from the town. Inthe same place lived a barber named Venturella, a young man only twenty The barLer Venturella was on intimate terms with the rich Catalfamos. Considering how best he might tura his knowledge of the three brothers Catalfamo to account, de came to the conclusion that the most expeditious method of doing so would be to make a sequestro of one ot his benefactors, i. e., to kidnap him and demand aransom. Heisakinsman of Manno, Bar- reca and Lo Faso (three of the prisoners re- cently condemned). These two kinsmen soon agreed as to the desirability of performing a sequestvo On the person of one or other of the rich brothers, andSanfilippo was charged to seek fitting accomplices, which he did among the lowest offscourings of the /c, in Pal- ermo. Partly by the confessions of some of the prisorers, partly by the, investigations of the police, every step in the drama of this crime has been traced and recorded. It is known how the conspirators first strolled into the enclosure ofthe Piszza Garina'dito discuss their *project amidst the flowers and sun- shine of a Sicilian September day; how, one of the party being reproved by the custodian of the square for sitting down on the grass, it occurred to them that their conversation might reach the profane ears of some meinber ofthe public who did not share their un- prejudiced views about property; how, with this danger in their minds, tber with- drew tothe safer seclusion of a garden be- longing to one Lo Verde (since con- demned totwenty vears’ penal servitude), and how, under the sweei-smelling lemon trees there, they finally arranged all the de- tails of the sequestration of Catalfamo, to be followed by those of other proprietors, the Signori Sansone, Pucci, Pace, etc., in all six- ” teen abductions, most of which were carried out, as isattested by the police records for the year 1879. They then went down to the port to have a look at the boat which was to convey their victim, when once he should be captured, from Cefalu to Palermo, aod,baving thus duly put business before piea-ure, they wound up the afternoon with adrinking bout in a Wine shop in lV’iazza Caracciolo. On the night of the 4th of October, i879, a bark left Palermo for Cefalu manned by the chief conspirators. They grrived at a place on the coast near Cefalu, called La Roccella. and an accomplice who waited onthe shore gave a signal by lighting some lucifer matches. The boat drew close in shore and Venturella leaped aboard and took command ofthe expedition. From La Roccella they proceeded to Cape Plaja, in the vicinity of Cefalu. Herethe rutitians disembarked, and, following the guidance of Venturella, who was wellacquainted with the lovculity, arrived ata half-ruined building which hid once served as a dairy, in the midst of a very lonely and deserted stretch of land. Ciaining access to the dairy by means of an open win- dow, some ofthe conspirators concealed themselves within it, cthers took up th ir tation in ambush by the roadside, and thus they waited from dawn. ® It is not until nearly 6:30 that the carriage appears. Venturella at once gives the signal, ana accompanied by bis five acccomplices (the sailors had been left to take care of the boat), rushes outintothe road. At alout 400 paces from the boundary of tbe Catalfamo property Lo Verde calls out. to the ciriver to stop. Within the carriage are Giuseppe Catalfam» and a herdsman in his employ. ()uartaroand another rush forward and bind the eoachman and berdsmau, a third cuts the traces and sets the horses at A7 Lo Verde draws from a game pouch which he carries 9 stout cord with a running noose atthe end of it. This be throws round the neck of Giuseppe Catal- famo after the manner of a lasso, and thus drags bim along with brutal violence. Tae conspirators then make all speed back to their boat with their unfortunate victim, who is concealed under the prow, and they row back towards Palermo, where they make for a pcint named Alla Verginee Maria, near the Arenelis.. About S o' clock in the evening seven men came to fetch off their prisoner. Ile was car- ried to a cavern in Monte Pellegrino. Moate Pellegrino is close by the sea shore, tothe northwest of Palermo. Here Buonafede fixed the ransom of Giuseppe Catalfamo at 209,100 francs, or nearly £8,000. And he caused Ca- talfamo to copy letters addressed to his fam:- ly in Cefalu which he (Buonafede) had com- d in the tenderest and most moving rms. The letters tothe Catalfamo family demind- ing a ransom were despatched, some by post, some by private hand. Some of the letters were written by the prisoner under the dicta- tion of his captors, others were addressed by the brigands in their own persons— without names, of course, but indicating that ther came from the membe sof a powerful band. Minute directions were civen as to how tbe ransom was to be conveyed. Place and time were determined on. The ey was to be brought by a man arivi a cart laden with empty ham- "rhe horse was to have a red tassel at head. The driver was to wear 4 «reen hief round his neck and a plece of rag tied round one finger. Watchwords was, Lou 're from Cefalu, friend?

But this latter sum they were nable to raise at once, 12 onl finally di- tehed 8,500 francs to the brſcands. Wheth- er this sum was intended merely asan install- ment, or whether it was — that the ruf- fians would content themselves with it as the entire ransom, does not clearly appear. [a any case the payment and actéeptapce of it was looked upon as being at least a guaran- tee forthe life it not the liberty of Giusep- e Catalfame. And such it should have een, in accordance with all the precedent:— there is no lack of them in Sic.ly—of such captures, Nevertheless, on the very day on which this money was paid and divided among thedand (November 11) their victim was assassinated in cold blood, and with cir- cumstances of peculiar barbarity, his head having been literally sawn from his body with a blunt knife, such as is used by gardners for trimming plants. One of the chief atms of the administrators of justice 1n Sicily is to prevent individuals deal- ing directly with the chiefs ofthe Omerta (as the Moi, or Camorra is called there), and to c.mpel them to communicate all crimes, or threats of crimes, at once to the authorities. The exact contrary is, of course, desired by the criminals, their friends and supporters. To communicate athreatening letter, or a de- mand for ransom, to the police, has been de- cided to be the gravest sort of /ese-Omerti, and of this crime the Canon Catalfamo, elder brother ofthe victim, bad been guilty. In his distress and anxiety he had put into the hands of the Sub- Prefect of Cefalu one of the fi:st letters demanding aransom of 150,000 francs. Sucb iniquity could not be allowed to go unpunish- ed. An example must be made. The death of Guiseppe Catalfamo was decided on from that moment. The English reader will prob- ably be filled with amazenient and increduli- ty on being told who the friends and support- ers of the prisoners are. They are to be found among some of the richest, most influential and well- born gentlemen) of the Island of Sicily. Oneofthe tbreatening letters dis- atched to the Cataifamos was proved to have een written bythe hand of one Manno, a Communal Counselor of the Cefalu. The body of the unfortunate Giuseppe Ca- talfamo was discovered in the cavern where he had been killed. Parily by thetreachery of one against the other, and partly by the vigil- ance and activity of the olflicers and men of the mi/iti a cavallog(mounted police), nearly all the band of miscreants concerned in this crime have been arrested, judged and con- demned. It remains te be|seen how much of the sentence pronounced against each of these Villains will be carried eut, for, unfortunate- ly, all the precedents lead one to fear that neither the punishment of death nor that of long imprisonment with hard labor will be enforced. But until the sentence of the law is eniorced with unflinching rigor itis vain toexpect that such crimes should become rarer. The condition of social morality re- vealed in the course of this trialis truly ap- palling. A community in which such dramas us this Catalfamo trial should growto bea daily and familiar spectacle would be doomed to dissolution without remedy or redemption. — —— — The Danger of Having Teeth Pulled. [From the New York Times. | On Monday, May 24, Mr. Benjamin Crom- well, of No. 119 Prospect |street, Brooklyn, bad eight teeth extracted by Dr. Biggart, of Fulton street. His gums were very sore in consequence, but on the succeeding Wednes- day he had two more teetn extracted. After the last operation his face began to swell on both sides. Nervous prostration and fever followed, and on Friday last the patient be- came very restless. He continued to grow worse, and on Sunday morning diedin great pain. Death is supposed to have resulted from pyxmia. Coroner Simms will bold an inquest to-day, and has impanceiled a jury in which there are two prominent dentists. The physicians called in to attend Mr. Cromwell say that his death was not due to the extrac- tion of his teeth, butthe Coroner has ordered a post-mortem examination to be made. Mr. Cromwell was fifty-nine years of age, Presi- dent of the Second Ward Republican Asso- — and was promioent in Masonic circles. oe ee oe a CLIPPINGS. — James Oliver, of Olivers Grove, III., is 93 years old.

Mr. Herbert Reeves, son of the great tenor, is to make his debut at Mr, Ganz’s fourth or- chestral concert, at St. James’ Hall in Lon- don, on June 12.

At Tiflis some Jews from Koutais were on trial charged with using Christian blood in their Passover ceremonies, and with killing a little girl for that purpose. After a six hours’ trial they were acquitted. | The Public Prose- cutor, feeling the absurdity ofthe charge, de- clined to deliver the usual speech for the prosecution. Turkish papers announce that. during an eartbquake which took place a coupie of weeks aco, the village of Heleddi,in the neighbor- hood of Sinope, was completely swallowed up by the sea.

The Constitution of Kentucky’ excludes colored men from juries, no alteration having ever beon made to make it conform with the fourteenth amendment to the Federal Con- stitution. Juries have all along been entirely white in that State. Judge Barr of the United States Court has decided that convictions by such juries are void. If that doctrine is car- ried cut all Kentucky conyicts can gain their freedom. The Rev. Dr. Childs, of Hartford, desired to bury the body of a colored girl, who had been a servant in his family, in a Cedar Hills Cemetery lot. of which he was part owner.

The night watchman at the Grand Pacific Hotel. discovered a man lying in the hall on 8 6 Stage bye pa A morning. apparently sleeping. s was no to be silowed eves in the crowded condition of the house, and he was gently shaken by the shoulder and reminded of the rules of the hotel. It took something more than a gentle shaking to rouse him, Suddenly he saated up and threw himself about wildly. He “went for’? the watch- man in a lively manner, knocked him down and tore around as though he had only halt recovered from 4 projonged spree. He did not seem to sealize hissituation until he thrust bis hand through a window and had it badly cut. He wos rational enough then, and thoroughly frightened at the prospects of bleeding to death. In spite of the possibility of the man’s becoming a corpse, the faithful watchman considered it wise to conduct him to the police station just opposite. He was turned over to Maj. Heinzman, whose sympathies were at once thoroughly aroused. The bustling major never bustled about more lively and insisted that when a mun’s life was in danger, it was not a time to question a little apparent indiscretion, set dows as disorderly conduct by a heartless watchman. He proposed that the *‘gentle- man goat once to the county hospital and immediately went out and secured a carriage. He conducted the “gentleman,” now faint from loss of blood, took aseat by his side, and ordered the driver to reach the county hospital in the quickest possible time. Tne conversation on the road was of a triendly and cheering nature on the part of the Major, and he hinted at the pleasure it weuld afford him to knowtbe stranger’s name, taking it for granted that he was a del- egate to the convention. It is true; Lam a delegate, but what a pre- dicamentIg~am in,“ the man said: **Why, wy Ged! what would my friends say if they kuew that I have been on a spree. Liquor always made me wild, but I did nothing ex- traord inary last night, and expected to sleep off the devilish effects before morning. I was crazy when | struck the watchman, smashed the wincow, and not disorderly in malicious serse. I hope this matter may hot be made pub:ie since it would injure me greatly.”’ „My dear sir,“ urged the major, I am disposed tolook upon you with compassioa. I promise you that your name shall not be made public. As your friend, and that I m.y have the honor of a more intimate acquaint- ance with you. I would like to kuow who vou are. At the hospital you shall be spoken of as John Smith or John Adams.“ „Under these conditions, then, know that I am James C. Somers, delegate irom Maryland, and iny home is at Baltimore. My family con- nections are among the best, aod 1 know it would break the hearts of all my friends if they knew of this.”’ At the hospital, the stranger—a man of fine pbysique and with good language at his com- mand—insisted that he was strung enough to go his way unattended, notwithstanding he had become weak from the loss of blood. He argued the question until great drops of sweat stood out on his forehead, and finally pecame so boisterous that the major bundled the man into the. carriage again and drove back to the central station. By this time the detective force was out of bed, and the day squad was ready to be sent out for patrol duty. Mr. Somers was led into their resence. They bowed respectfully as] the ajor introduced the delegate, and was about to relate his experience. Involuntarily, De- tectives Ender and Murnane rose, but Mur- nane was the first to speak. ‘*Tie’s the best man in the city, and don’t you forget it. It’s Charles Water-; he is the chap who stole $100 from a Granger less thug a week ago, and a notorious co. y.nan.’’ Mr. Waters, alias Somers, didn’t wait to hear more, but made a desperate attempt to escape in the face of fifty policeman. He broke away and ran like a deer for the door, and would certainly have got away had not the fleet-footed Ender been around. He was overtaken at the La Salle street door by Ender and led back. Heis now a delegate at the thieves’ convention at the Harrison street station and it is hoped by the police that he may be delegated to the penitentiary. Waters’ victim, a week ago, was en route to Naperville, and was robbed at the Balti- more and Obio railroad depot. The money was passed to accomplices who escaped with it, but Waters was arrested and taken to the station. on the following day the Victim cid not put in an appearance at the Police Court to prosecute and Waters was discharged.

Swearing Punished by Law. {From the Pittsburg Post. | Judge Pershing, ef Schuylki!l county, has just decided a case in his court which pre- sents some almost forgotten features of the law of this State egainst swearing. John II. Bashore, an excitable and somewhat pro- fane citizen of the county, on a recent occas- sion got off a volley of twenty-three separate and distinct oaths, for which he was arrested, taken before a Justice of the Peace, and, un- der the law of April 22, 1794, fined $1608, This tine he refused to pay. He was commic- ted to jail. and the case was taken before Judge Pershing on a writ of certiorari. Tae act of 1744 provides that: / If any person of the age of sixteen years or upward shali profanely curse or swear bv the name of God, Christ Jesus, or the Hoty Ghost, every person so Offending, being thereof con- victed, shall forfeit and pay the sum of sixty- seven cents for every such profane curse or oath. * * And who: Over ofthe age of sixteen years or upward sball curse or swear bv any other name or thing than as aforesaid, and shall be convicted thereof, shall forfeit and pay the sum of forty cents fer such curse or oath.” Exception was taken to the ruling of the Justice on the ground that the arrest of Ba- shore should have been by summons and not by warrant, and suit should have been brought by an individual informer instead of in the name of the Commonwealth. These exceptions were overruled. the decisions of the higher courts being that the action was properly brought. But the Justice failed to return the evidence taken before him, and this omission Judge Pershing decided to be fatal to the proceedings. and he thereupon reversed the decision of the magistrate. The point of the decision, however, is in the pithy egnclusion with which Judge Pershing wound up his decision. He says: Tbe general prevalence of profane swear- ing indicates that the statute under which this defendant was convicted had long been buried out of sight. Perhaps its resurrection in this case May accomplish some good, by showing those who have no regard for the law of God thatthe law of the land imposes on them a enuſty of from forty to sixty-seven cents, to t followed by imprisonment, accompanied with a diet of bread and water, on refusal to pay, for each and every time they pollute the giumosphere with their profanity. John Brougham Improving. [From the New York Herald, 2d. The former theatrical associates, friends and admirers of John Bougham are stil! un- remitting in their inquiries as te his condi- tion. Under the advice of his physicians only his more intimate friends are allowed to see him. Drs. Gillette and Murray held ac on- sultation yesterday and their joint diagno.is of bis case is quite fayorable. Dr. lette feels quite hopeful that he will vet recover, and, like Mr. Charies ©’Conor, astonish the world by a complete restoration to health. He bases this bejief on Mr. Brouv- ham’s pluck and powers of recuperation. Dr. Murray is not ganguine.. He thinks that Mr. Brougham’s age is greatly against his« recovery, in view of the peculiar and distress- ing complication of his ailments. Dr. (uack- enbés was most conficent yesterday tuat his old and bighly honored patient might be re- stored agein to comparative vigzor. At the time of going to press be was sieeping very quietly. His mind was perfectly clear all dav and he recognized the few friends permitted was then a dangerous confidence’ 2 a Giil-— to approach Phillips, who tentions to bim through his illin 8 e day and n nog coadjutor in teen Mr. Brougham/’s attendant so many years, and both are materially assisted by the nurse so kindly sent to their aid by Mr. Les- ter Wallack. Among the manv visitors who called yesterday were John T. Raymond,Jobn McCullough, Mr. F. Bangs and Wm. Winter. A long visit was made late in the evening Mr. Lester Wallack. All feel quite en- couraged by his improved condition, and yet none would be surprised shouid the curtain of — lite drama be rung down at any mo- ment. A‘ Pretty German Custom. From the London Telegraph. ] A pretty May custom still obtains in the more primitive villages of Suabia, Bavaria, and the Tyròôt distant from the great railway rou and ro yet 2 — untouched by the prosaic temper of contemporary German cul- ture. On the first Sunday of the flowery month the unmarried girls of the hamlet, armed with leafy boughs, vifitin procession the young wives who have been wed during the past year, and make formal inquiry, in certain set phrases hallowed by long custom, with respect to their bealth and happi- ness. Etiquette prescribes that each mar- ried woman thus distinguished should receive her maiden visitors at the outer door of her house, before which they take up their stand in double line. After thanking them for their kind inquiries, she passes slowly be- tween their ranks, receiving from each in turn alight blow, inflicted with the green branches, as a mark of maidenly disapproval of her faithlessness to their 4 sleter- hood. Having endured this gentle discipline, she is expected, according to her husbands’s means, to make a pecuniary offering to the vestal band, and the totsl amount of this quaint po Aiwa collection is expended by the village girls in an evening festivity, to which they invite the marriageable bachelors of the village. At this merry-making all the outlay for musicians and refreshments is defrayed by the youthful hostesses, who, however, re- sei ve to themselves the privilege of ‘‘en- gaging partners.“ The whole picturesque ceremcnial was performed the other day at Tunxdorf, near Papenburg, with strict fideli- ty to traditions that have been traced back to the Middle Ages, and probably owe their oligintoan even earlier period of German history. The Month of Suicides. | From the London Ness. A verv popular fallacy has received from the events of last week notable and well- proved contradiction. Every one has heard and been willing to credit the statement that most suicides in England occur in the month of November. It is so probable that it is as- serted as if it were proved. The connection between dreary weather and depression of mind is obvious, while in most cases de- pression of spirits iz the cause of seif- lestrue- tiop. Thetheoryis su plausible that it is almost a pitv to upsetit. As a matter of fact, however, November is credited: by the im- partiality of statistical returns with less than the average number of suicides, while the last few days of last week, when the sun shone and the weatker was Lright, witnessed an extraordinary epidemic of this kind of crime. The newspapers of Saturday alone chronicled seven deaths which would be called self-murder but for the extenuating circumstancés, which induced the severe al juries to find in each case evidence of temporary insanity. Side by side with these facts we read most favorable reports ofthe health of the country. ue average London death-rate of twenty-four in 1,000 has been reduced for the past week to twenty, and the change of weather is credited wit much of this benéficial result. The extraor- dirary prevalence of suicide during the sece ond week of May may, of conrse, be a coin- cidence, but evenin that light it is worth re- membering as contradicting a wi tiely-be- lieved fallacy. It is curious, too, to tind that the annual average is pretty regular. Inthe course of fifteen vears it has never exeeeded 1. 200, and never been less than 900; while the proportion between the number of men as compared with that of women who are tired of life-remains constant at that of three to one. A Champion Enjoying Life. [From the New York Herald, 2d. Edward Hanlan, the famous oarsman, ar- rived at the Gilsev House yesterday morning from Washipgton, and is at present staying there as the guest of the proprietor, James H. Breslin. In the morning, in company with his friend, C. D. Anderson, tue conqueror of Courtney and Rilev visited the Stock, Mining and Produce exchanges, and in the afternoon rode eut to Brighton Beach. In the evening he was present at the Metropolitan Concert Hall. In reply to inquiries as to his intended movements duripg the next few days Hanlan said that to-day he proposed attending the regatta on the Harlem, and that in the course of the day he will b:obably take a pull on the river. He expects that Robert Watson Boyd, of Gateshead-on-Tyne, England, will arrive here to-day. This rising young sculler, of whom Hanlan entertains a very high opinion, will, the latter says, take part, in a race on the 17th of this month. Riley, Wallace Ross and others are expected to row, and tbe Canadian champion will bave quite a little fleet of op- ponents. Ilanlan has not'seen Courtney since the day they met in the race at Washington, and with characteristic good nature showed no dispo- tition to criticise his late opponent. This evening or4e.morrow morning the enampion sculler will go to Rockaway, where be intends to stay for a tew days. Extortionate Charges. From the Washiagton Republic. ! The netprofits of the Swiss telegraph de- partment for last year was about 5100, 000. And pet, after the payment of asix-cent standard fee one can telegraph anywhere in Switzerland at half a cent a word. Compare this with the extortionate rates demanded in the United States, and it can readily be seen where the money comes in to enrich the few atthe expense of the many. ‘There is no country on the globe that is so completely at the mercy of its corporations as ours. The telegraph and the Puliman car are no longer luxuries. They are essential to everyday business and ordinary comfort. The power to regulate them restsin that vower which created them. Yet they are permitted todo about as they please, charge what they please and go as they please gener- ally. There is no limit but their own flexibie consciences. They pay as little attention to the complaints of individuals as they do to the demands of trade. The Pullman car and telegraph companies made a handsome profit twenty years ago. They now probably quad- ruple tbat profit on every dollar invested. Those who have anxiously anticipated a fall- ing off in tolls with the increased service are still waiting. Aud it they expect a voluntary reduction in any quarter they will stil: wait a long, long time. The CAnese Army. From the Pall Mall Gazette. | Numerically of considerable ‘strength, the Chinese army has at present but little figat- ing value. The Chinese soldier is naturally brave and the men recruited in the northern districts of the empire are full of vigor and energy; but the troops are practically totally uniostructed in military duties. Taat this sbould be the case is probablv mainly owing to the inferiority of the Chinese ofticers. ‘*They are, says a French writer, “below ail criticisem:;’’ and thatthey are so must be ascribed to the low esteem in which the pro- fession of arms in China. ‘‘You wouid not,” runs a Chinese saving, take good iron to make into nails, aud you would not take a man worth anything at all to make into a sol- dier.“ A man need not be in any way edu- cated to obtain a commission; but, on the other hand, he must be an athlete. Carrying and throwing heavy weights, the use of the sword and shooting wieh the bow, both on foot and on horseback, are the subjects in which a man desirous of obtaining a commis- sion is examined. Under these cireumstan- ces, it is no wonder that the Chinese officer is usa rule utterly ignorant of military art while bis men, knowing that be is as — 4 2 themselves, bave but little respect n, : | "ier.

Missouri Crop Prospects — St. Louis Fogyism. . St. Louis Cor. Chicago* Times. | On my way home from a business trip of over two months, through Southern IIImois and Southwestern Missouri, a brief statement of the crop prospect and politics may not be ubinteresting to your numerous readers. Southern Lilinois will have more than an av- erage crop of wheat, provided no disaster overtakes the growing crop before harvest. The acreage sown, fam informed, is fully 20 per cent greater than last year, and the pros- pective yield is much better. The probable price of the growing crop is now what is mostly discussed by farmers. It is yet too soon to speak of the growimg corn crop, although a much larger area than last season has been planted. Witha favorable season an enormous yield can safely be relied on. The farmers and merchants of Southern Illi- nois are mestl) out of debt, and this spring they are giving their attention to the improvement of their homes and farms. The evidence of this can be plainly seen by tbe large number of fresh-painted houses and barns, new fences, and other sub- stantial improvements, which all go to make home pleasant and comfortable and people happy. It is a real pleasure to see how beau - tifulthe south half of Lilinois now looks, clothed as she is in nature’s most lovely and beautiful garb. 1 cannot say for Missouri what I have of I- linois. Although a citizen of Chicago, I hope and believe I am not prejudiced, but the difference is so marked that the most casual observer can see it. What 1 havesaid of the crops of Southern IIlinois will apply equally as well to Missouri with one exception, that the average is not over one-half. The St. Louis and San Francisco road runs through a very uninteresting coun- try. Farms ann all mprove- ments thereon appear dilapidated, and look in many cases as if the occupants were ready to abandon them. The larger part of the land in Southwest Missouri is highly productive, and only requires — and skill to produce fully as well as similar lands in Illinois. Un- fortunately, the days of slavery are still felt and seen in Missouri; but one ortwo genera- tions hence she will blossom as the rose, her virgin soil yielding immensely if only intel- ligently cultivated. , St. Louis is growing, notwithstanding her many drawbacks. The old-fogy element still predominates, and the old aristocratic feeling of thirty years ago has full swayin all busi- ness and social circles. This city has a pride intwo things only, and they are the bridge and Union Depot. The great bridge which spans the river is claimed to be the largest and grandest in the world. St. Louis slept for years, Wiling to put up with the old-fashion- | ed ferryboat which lazily plied to and fro over the great river, until Eastern men and Eastern capital generously came forward an built the mamm>th bridge. This partially aroused the average St. Louisan from his Rip Van Win- kle sleep, and many denounced the bridge as an innovation on established custom and det- rimental to business. Even to this day some cling to this insane idea. The bridge com- pleted necessitated a union depot, and, al- though over a million dollars of Cincinnati capital has been expended, the only thing to be seen are a few dirty waiting-rooms and offices and a number of tracks for trains. Snow, hail, rain and the tropical heat for which this cltv is so noted the world over— the wealy and care-worn traveler must face all these elements in getting aboard. of his train at the Grand Union Depetin St. Louis, the only redeeming feature of the depot be- ing that all trains arrive and depart at it. THE MOTHER TONGUE. | A Sanskrit Professor Securéd for Har- vard. | Boston Special to N. V. Times.] Harvard College has established a full and permanent Professorship of Sanskrit, and called thereto Prof. Charles R. Lanman, of Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore. The honor bas been accepted. Piof. Lanman isa native of Norwich, Conn. He was graduated at Yale in 1871, took a postgraduate course at the same university for two years more, and spent three years at German universities, at Berlin, Tubingen and Leipzig, giv- ing particular attention to Sanskrit. In 1876 he became a Fellow of and and a year later was chosen Assistant Professor of this tongue at Johns Hopkins University, the pres- ident of which, Dr. Daniel C. Gilman, is also a native of Norwich. Since that time he has written several papers, which have been read at various meetings of philological societies, and published a work on ** Noun Inflections in the Vedas.’’ to be used as a text book. He sailed for Eu- rope in the Egypt last Saturday to arrange for the plates with which to illustrate it. He will be absent for four months. Although Prof. Lanman has barely finished his tbirti- eth year, it is believed that Prof. Whitney, of Yale, whose health is greatly impaired, is his only equal among American scholars in this articular department of philology. It may be added that Harvard invited Prof. Whit- neytotake a professorship of Sanskrit at Cambridge several years ago, but the request was courteously refused, the gentleman pre- ferringto remain in New Haven. No other canes has been made until this one to Prof, anman. J — — — Strength of the Russlan Army. From the Tall Mall Gazette, May 15. An interesting history of the development of the Russian army during the last quarter of a century has been lately published in St. Petersburg. On tbe Istof January, 1554, the Russian army comprised 27,716 ofticers and 968,382 men, including reserve, local and auxiliary troops, besides 78,144 Cossacks. During the Crimean war the strength of the armed forces of the Empire was of course largely increased, and 82 to official returns, included on the first of January, 16, no fewer than 41,817 officers and 2,275,454 men. How many of these were, however, actually present with the colors or were avail- able for serviceintbe field cannot be even approximately ascertained. The active army numbered, it is stated, 24,654 officersa/and 1. 170,184 men; the reserve troops, 7,876 officers an 572,168 men; the -— irregular forces, 3,640 ofticers and. 168,601 men; the opoltschent or militia, 5,647 Officers and 264,421 men, and the Cossack troops,.441 officers and 156,726 men; but very large deductions would probably have to be made to arrive at the actual strength of each of these several bodies. In 1863, for instance, when 7 to the returns of the Minis«- ter of ar, the sian army numbered 485s, - Ftrorpth of Weregulet’ troupedla how exte 385,000 men.

Lady Knightley’s dress was one of the most remarkable, as its train was thickly em- broidered with rows of peacock’s feathers, Lady Loudoun (presented on her marriage by her sister-in-law, the Duchess of Norfolk) wore white brocade satin, and the same color was worn by another bride, Lady Leighton, presented by her mother, Mrs. Hlouldswortn, of Coltness. Lady Hastings was presented by Lady Sufticld. One lady appeared in a white satin dress with hand-painted violets, pansies and lilses all over it. A Danish Relic. 8 From the London Telegraph | Not very long ago a portion ot hard dry skin was found underneath the bossed 5 —— huge iron nail that was fixed into the door of tbe Chapter House, at Westminster. Upon this skin was found several hairs. Mr. Quekett, Curator of the Museum of the Col- lege of Surgeons, recognized the bair to be human, and asserted that it belonged to a fair-haired person. In former times the Danes used to come up the mouths of the Engiish rivers'to pillage the churches. When they were caught they were skinned, and their skins nailed to the door of the church they attacked. In the course of time all the exposed portion would peel off, that covered by the nall would remain protected, and thus bear testimony to the crue!ty of our ancestors, in the College of Surgeons may be seen three specimens of human hair presented by Mr. Albert Way, viz: ‘*Portion of human skin, said to de that of a Dane, from the door of 3 church at Hadstock, in Essex;’? a second specimen is from Copford,in hssex, and a — 2 the north door of Worcester Ca- thedral.

South Pass, which five years ago, was not navi yauble for vessels drawing over six feet, is now „ Magnificent stream 1,000 feet in width, with a central channel varying from 250 to 500 feet in width, where twenty-six feet is the least depth on the outer edges, and where thirty-five feet is the average prevailing depth of the middle. This channel has also projected itself beyond the jetties, for at a distance of 500 teet outside the sea walls there is a weli-deftned channel 1,000 feetin width, with a depth of 26 feet on the edges, and of 34 ann 37 feet in the center. And now this miraculous change, this conver- sion of a wretched lagoon into a broad, swift thoroughfare of commerce, bas been wrought in five years. During that interval New Or- leans has becomeaformidd@yle competitor of New York. Withanetwork of river routes reaching fromthe eastern slope of the Rocky’ Mountains tothe western slope ot tre Alle- hanies, and from the Canadian line to the sult of Mexico, all paying tribute to the com- mon route, with a land-locked herb or in which the navies ofthe world can ride, and with a permanent deep-water outlet to ths sea, New Orleans bas bounded from a fourtn-rate port ofentry into the front rank of commercial depots.

Harry White, three years ago, touching a third term: ‘I would not accept a nomination if it were tcnder- cd, unless it should come under such cir- cumstances as to make it an imperative duty—circumstaaces not likely to arise.” The unanimity which prevails at Chicaga must convince him that the imperative mecessity “which was to have arriv have urrover.’’ Ir has been decided that the verdict in the Peyton murder trial will not be affect- ed by the clerical error Which entered one of the jurors under the wrong name.

This is a very unfriendly act on the part of Canada, and no doubt there will be diplomatic compli- cations over this stoppage of Spanish supplies. | . —— > Tun Washington Post authoritatively sets at rest the story that Mr. Tilden is hostile to Senator Thurman. The Post Says: | Mr. Tilden nas never spoken of Mr. Thurman other than in the highest terms, and within a few weeks has taken pains to assure him that he was perfectly satisfied with his course as a member of the Electoral Commission, and would cheertully support him for auy position to which the Democratic party might seek to advance him. This ought to prove to Mr. Thurman a veritable dose of the elixir of youth. Next to the death of a rich relative who has formulated a proper sort of will there is nothing in this world for a common mortal so consoling as the knowledge that Mr. Tilden is inclined to be sociable. AT CHICAGO. The decisive battle in the Republican National Convention opened this morning with an effort on the part of Mr. Conkling to administer the oath of allegiance to the delegates. A resolution was offered pledg- ing the delegates to support the nominee of the convention. This was done to pre- vent the bolt which now seems imminent, no matter how the proceedings result. On the call of the States, three delegates from West Virginia voted against the resolution. An attempt was made to expel them from the convention, but it was finally aban- doned. Everything will turn on the disposition of the report of the Committee on Creden- tials. The committee has thus far decided all contests in favor of the anti-Grantites. The first test vote in] the Con- vention last evening showed the relative strength of the two factions to be as follows: Grant, 318; anti-Grant, 406. The solid vote of Illinois was Last with the Grantites in this opening struggle. The adoption ofthe report of the committee will deprive the Grantites of at least thirty votes, and these, taken with the bolters in New York, Pennsylvania and other States, reduce Grant’s support at Idast 100 votes If the Grant faction, which is solid, well organized below the estimates of a weck ago. and well officered, can reject the report of the committee, it will enter upon the first ballot with 318. votes—not enough to nominate, but considerably more than any other candidate can muster. The platform, reported (this morning, favors protection, opposes the use of pub- lic funds for the maintenance of sectarian schools, denounces polygamy and Chinese immigration, commends the Hayes adminis- tration and arraigns the Democratic party in the old regulation style.“ or. M.—Two reports have been submit- ted to the Convention from the Committee on Credentials. The majority report ad- mits the anti-Grant contesting delegates from Illinois, and is generally favorable to that side of the house. ‘The minority re- port is essentially in the interest of Grant. The debate over these reports will probably consume the bulk of to-dayſs session. THIS mornine’s Times contains a little the raggedest piece of poetry ever catered to an appreciative public by a purely literary jour- nal. The muse in this case tackled the third term, and after a hard wrestle, in which both parties were badly used up, the muse claimed afouland quit. In this ambitious poem ev- erything goes smoothly enouth in the flowing meter of ‘‘Mary had a Little Lamb’’ until the incautious reader is jolted thus: Now I want her help me kill,Jjim Blaine, Solcanat him Ban! ch Oh, come, dear tortune, fill with pain My enemies at Chicago. | The spectacle of the man on horseback re- versing himself so as to “Bah’’ go, with no ulterior purpose except rhyming with Chi- cago, is undignified, to say the least. The poet comes smiling up to the scratch, however, for the next round, which runs thus: This wérid l've traveled round and round, And with nobles grand I've died: Now to wear a crown both large and round lever since have pined. | So help me stifie up this crowd, And make my friends ‘‘Hurrah!’’ go For I'll have the seat and not be cowed If I'm victor at Chicago. | Of course, after this — the muse fougbt wildly, took to rhyming ‘‘sorrow’’ and „Chicago, and soon was finished up. The exigencies of the rhyme éxcuse people for going burrab!“ and a trifling inconsistency in meter in having five feet in one line and eight in another is sanctioned by the best poeta, but all little blemishes sink into significance before the fact that we Berry Mitchell distances competition upon the histrionic stage. Ei THE venerable collection of municipal spies and informers known as the Citizens’ Com- mittee, which has been holding meetings in the Lindell Hotel wine-room for several months, is a moral and abstemious institution. Up to this time the receipts at the bar from this committee amount to fifteen cents—one gentieman, in a reckless spirit, having ordered a lemonade. When the weather gets Warmer it is proposed to provide a barrel of ice water for the Committee. ALLUSIONS to Grant’s performances at the battle of Shiloh are ill-timed. He was sur- prised and whipped on the first day and was only saved from capture by the arrival of re- inforcements which had been marching to his support for two weeks. He ought to have been court-martialed and dismissed from the army after that fight for criminal negligence. WHEN Grant tied his neck-tie this morning he bad some doubts whether the red-eyed, frowsy-looking person whom he saw in the mirror was the next President of the United States. This sort of thing will probably re- sult inthe purchase of anew looking-glass before the week is out.

Loss of Life at Central Elevator B. _ Serious Damages Suffered in the West- ern Suburbs. _ The Roof of the Insane Asy- . lum Wafted Away. | \ a - Lafayette Park Wrecked by the Tornado. — - Fences and Sign-Boards Drifting in All Directions. Shortly after 11 o’clock, while the rain was still steadily pouring down, a terrible gust of wind visited St. Louis. Its velocity and force were unusual, and while it only lasted a few minutes it did a vast amount of damage. Windows were broken; shingles were blown down. The pedestrians who were caught in the sudden squall suf- fered severely. Umbrellas were blown inside out by the score; hats were caught up by the wind and carried along the muddy- streets, while the blast whistled with terrible force. Considerable damage was also wrought on several buiid- ings. At the northeast corner of Seventh and Chestnut, the house No. 102 N. Seventh was struck by wind with such violence that part of the brick wall was blown down. The house is a three-story brick facing on Seventh tothe corner. It has aslanting slate roof and the brick portion above the third story to the roof was completely demolished by the gust. The falling bricks and de · bris were luckily partially inter- cepted by a wooden porch extending along the pavement, and fortunately no one was hurt except one man who was passing, and who was struck on the head by a brick. It only, however, inflicted a slight wound. The porch, of course, was almost destroyed. In a few minutes the Salvage Corps and police were on the spot and an im- mense crowd congregated’ around the Poly- technic. The porch was pulled down by the standing with safety. The damage done is about $200. The house belongs to Mrs. lkydia P. Meoerse. None of the inmates were damaged. It was some time before the large crowd which had as- sembled dispersed from the scene. Elevator Warehouse Destroyed. The Central Elevator Company has met with another loss. Last fall Elevator B, at the foot of Chouteau avenue, on the river, was burnt. Forthwith the Elevator Company proceeded to have anew one erected, and it has only lately been completed. Connected with Elevator B is what is termed the trans- fer warehouse, which is a frame structure built on piles on the river’s bank. This was about 200 feet long by 100 broad and between 50 and 60 feet high. With the bins, it con- sisted of three stories. This warehouse is used in. loading barges, the grain being temporarily stored therein. The warehouse is connected with the elevator by a bridge commonly called “a boot, along which runs a belt by which the grain is discharged from the elevator into the warehouse. This ware- house was quite new and was barely com- pleted and had been built by Messrs. J. K. Bent & Son. When THE GALE OF WIND struck the city shortly after ll it caught the warehouse with it its full force. About fifteen men were in the bui ding at the time. The first shock felt was a slight sway- ing of thestructure. Themen all hurried out except three, of whom one was killed and two injured. The workmen had no soon- er made their escape than the warehouse fell in with aterritic crash. The roof is almost intact and lies over the debris of planks. It presents the picture of a complete collapse. The belt was lifted out of the boot and blown several yards with terrific force, but did net break. THE MAN WHO WAS KILLED was John Kelly, a bargeman. He had been loading one of the New Orleans Transporta- tion Company’s barges this morning, and after be bad done bis work lay down ino the warehouse to sleep. He was aroused by one of the other workmen as they were getting out of the building, but he refused to stir, preferring to remain inside, and thus he met his fate. The falling timbers crushed him to death. His body was conveyed to the Morgue. The barge Howard was along- side of the elevator when the acci- dent happened, but received no damage. The building fell in towards the shore. No grain wos in the elevator. The two men injured were Jobn Wright and John Costello. Tae damage amountsto about $12,000, which of course is a total loss to the elevator company. THE INJURED MEN. Jobhr Wright and John Costello, the two men , were sent to the Dispensary as soon as the ambulance arrived. Wright is a laborer, living at No.7 North Levee. Costello is a carpenter, and lives with his family near the intersection of Twenty-seeond and Papin streets. Wright’s injuries consist of an in- jured hip and back. From falling timber he received an ugly wound on tne right tem- ple and a stroke on. the right side of the head. A falling d struck him across the face, inflicting adeep gash onthe bridge of the nose. Whileatthe Dispensary he gave the following ACCOUNT OF THE AFFAIR: „We were waiting for the rain to stop and had gone under the place to escape getting wet. While there a heavy wind began to blow anda number of boards were flying about. We did not think fora moment that there was the least danger of the buildin blowing over. A strong blast of wind, whic continued for some minutes, struck under the building and was upsetting it, when I ran with several other men who were working — me. The heavy timber was soon flying abou inthe air. I was struck with the boards and knocked down several tines.“ COsTEKLLO, who is a carpenter, second story . of the was in the buliding, He was un- sustained an | his wounds at the Dispensary. eT he most serious injury which he received is a crushed breast. At the cursory examination made at the Dispeg- 8 it was not known whether he was tater- nally injured or not. His right wrist was tly sprained. Besides these he received lacerated wounds about his head and arms. Both the men were attended at the Dispensary by Dr. Renick and forwarded to the City Hospital. | , The Western Suburbs. Word was briefly telegraphed after the abatement of the gale to the office of the Health Commissioner that the Insane Asaph had been partially unroofed, and Poor-house building had sustained damage. ri ing rainstorm a reporter of the Post-Pts- PATCH drove out to the city institutions. On the way out Pine street as far as Jeffer- son avenue twenty-seven instances of trees blown down were noticed, but no damage to buildings. In Cheltenham and Rock Springs the storm had raged with fury. The Manchester road was fairly lit- tered with limbs of trees. Chimney tops had fallen on every band, two brick-making sheds immediately west of tbe St. Louis, Kansas City and Northern bridge over the read, bad been prostrated, a hay mow near the sheds had been scattered by the winds, and near the Keck Springs a iight built, covered spring wag- on such as are used as grocery delivery wagons, had been turned over. The devastation had been great in that sparsely built up seetion of the country on St. Louis heights and lying north of the In- sance Asylum. Light frame structures such as sheds and stables had suffered, and the roads were blockaded by falling trees and overturned fences. THE INSANE ASYLUM. The first thing apparent upon driving into the beautiful park surrounding the — Asylum was the sad havoc created among the trees. A peach orchard numbering about 100 trees had suffered sadly. The ground was fairly covered by the green fruit, and many of the trees were broken at the thickest portions of their trunk. A giant locust tree, which stood sentinel over the landscape long before the Daiatial asylum was thought of, had yielded to the storm king and lay prostrate upon the ground. The asylum, as will be remembered, is com posed of a grand central building with mammoth wings east and west, joined to the main build- ing by whatcan only be termed connectin wings. Theentire roofis of tin. The wind had managed to getunder the roof ofthe connecting wing east, and lifted it, rafters and all, into the air, and hurled it te the lawn, sixty feet below, crushing seygral fine trees, and utterly destroying thé finest flower-bed on the grounds. Dr. Howard, physician in charge, says thatthe gale: c:me as suddenly as it left. It stayed long enough, however, to remove this roof, also a portion of the roof of the engine and pump house in the rear of the asylum, and to destroythe galvanized iron ventilators and iron guttering on both buildings. The falling of the roof created a great noise, and the patients confined on the upper floor became somewhat excited, but before they could understand what had happened Dr. Howard and his attendants removed them to a lower floor, and quiet was restored. Prompt as the PostT-DISPATCH reporter had been in getting on the scene of the storm’s fury, the Health Commissioner was before him, showing signs of having ridden hard, and wasexamining the damage. While ex- plaining that the loss to the city on this building alone would exceed $2,000, an am- bulance drove up in hot haste. filed with tar- paulins which he had sent for, before leaving the city. These were placed over tue place where the roof had been, and the leak- ing of the rain into the upper ward stopped. At half-past one Oo clock Com- missioner of Public Buildings Beat ty arrived and announced that car- penters and tinners had been sent for and would commence repairing the roof this after- noon. : AT THE POOR-HOUSE. A visit was made to the Poor-house. The tar-roofing of the engine-house had been blown of, a large window in the male in- sane ward had blown in, causing great excitement among the patients, and in the female insane ward the wind had got in between the ceiling and roof and lovsened the plaster of the ceiling. The patients were easily quieted, and a panic prevented by the xood sense exercised by the female attendants. The damage will not exceetl 9500. THE FEMALE MOSPITAL. . None of the buildings here were damaged, but trees were blown down in numbers. On the return trip the reporter drove through TOWER GROVE PARK, and found a corps of laborers busy collecting and carting away limbs of trees and whole trees that were blown down. The foreman statedthattherewere about 200 instances of damage of that nature, but that no buildings had been injured. The storm ewept through Shaw’s Garden doing some bad work which Was mostly confined to the srborium, al- though some of the glasses in the prupagating houses had been blown out. OTHER DAMAGE.

The storm struck East St. Louis from the south side about 11 o’clock this morning, and the strong gale blew for nearly two hours without ceasing for a moment. It swept across the waste just south of the city and struck the buildings on the outskirts with great force. A large number of trees were uprooted. On account of the great distances between the houses the strong wind swept in to the city without much to break its force. Having open avenues along the railroad tracks just east_of Cahokia Creek and up through the streets running north and south down to the commons, the gale struck the center of the city with violence and did great damage. A tall tree, one of a row near the ©. and M. track, just north of the Relay Depot, was 12 and fell upon a two-stor frame building in Railroad w, crushing it to tbe ground. The house was occupied by Mr. Oliver and his family and two other families. Nine persons were in the house atthetime. The huge tree, which was over seventy-five feet high and three feet in circumference, fell on the western end of the roof. Immediately under the point where it struck an old man who has been in ill health for so time past was lying in bed, and main portion of it tell over the bed, with but a few scratches. persons escaped by crawling out from under the debris. 8 — Sippi’s house was unroeofed.

The Barada Sete, 2 — story brick, on Main near Fillmore street, wa, blown down. When the reporter left at 1 o’clock for the city it appeared as if the storm would return with greater fury than before. Incidents of the Gale. The roof of No. 110 Locust street was blown in. The beard fence around the Sout bs tel on Fifth street was blewn down. * The fence around the High School, F and Olive streets, was ews down. epee The tin roof of the city jail was upraised, but soon aojusted itself in its former position The ferryboat pilots experienced great dim. culty in effecting landings this morning ow. ing to the great winds.

Hilgendorf and a corps of men are at work raising them. ; About eighty feet of the feace guarding the railroad tracks on the eastern bridge ap- proach was blown down this morning. It was quickly removed by the workmen, no trains being delaved. At 10:45the rear wall of the three-story es ee = Market street was de- troyed. damage amounted to some £500. The first floor was a saloon kept#by Nathaniel Coulter; the second and third stories were unoccupied. The house is in danger of falling.

The decisive battle in the Republican National Convention opened this morning with an effort on the part of Mr. Conkling to administer the oath of ‘allegiance to the delegates. A resolution was offered pledg- ing the delegates to support the nominee of the convention. This was done to pre- vent the bolt which now seems imminent, no matter how the proceedings result. On the call of the States, three delegates from West Virginia voted against the resolution. An attempt was made to expel them from the convention, but it was finally aban- doned. Everything will turn ou the disposition of the report of the Committee on Creden- tials. The committee has thus far decided all contests in favor of the anti-Grantites. The test the vention last evening showed the relative to first vote in Con- be as The solid vote of Illinois was cast with the The adoption ofthe report of the committee strength of the two factions follows: Grant, 318; anti-Grant, 406, Grantites in this opening struggle. will deprive the Grantites of at least thirty votes, and these, taken with the bolters in New York, Pennsylvania and other States, reduce Grant’s support at least 100 votes If the Grant faction, which is solid, well organized below the estimates of a weck ago. and well officered, can reject the report of the committee, it will enter upon the Hirst ballot with 318 votes—not enough to nominate, but considerably more than any other candidate can muster. The favors protection, opposes the use of pub- platform, reported this morning, lic funds for thé maintenance of sectarian schools, denounces polygamy and Chinese immigration, commends the Hayes adminis- tration and arraigns the Democratic party in the old regulation style.“ : 3 r. M.—Two reports have been submit- ted to the Convention from the Committee on Credentials. The majority report ad- inits the anti-Grant contesting delegates from Illinois, and is generally favorable to that side of the house. The minority re- port is essentially in the interest of Grant. The debate over these reports will probably consume the bulk of to-day’s session. 7 — THIS mornine’s Times contains a little the raggedest piece of poetry ever catered to an appreciative public by a purely literary jour- nal. The muse in this case tackled the third term, and after a hard wrestle, in which both parties were badly used up, the muse claimed afouland quit. In this ambitious poem ev- erything goes smoothly enouch in the flowing meter of Mary had a Little Lamb’’ until the incautious reader is jolted thus: Now I want her help me kill, jim Blaine, Sol can at him Ban“ 4 Oh, come, dear tortune, fill with pain My enemies at Chicago. The spectacle of the man on horseback re- versing himself so as to *Bah’’ go, with no ulterior purpose except rhyming with Chi- cago, is undignified, to say the least. The poet comes smiling up to the scratch, however, for the next round, which runs thus: This wérid I’ve traveled round and round, And with nobies grand I've died; Now to wear a crown both large and round I ever since have pined, So help me stifie up this crowd, And make my friends ‘ Hurrah!“ go For I’ll have the seat and not be cowed If I'm victor at Chicago. Of course, after this punishment the muse fought wildly, took to rhyming ‘‘sorrow’’ and „Chicago, and soon was finished up. The exigencies of the rhyme excuse people for going ‘‘hurrab!’’ and a trifling inconsistency in meter in having five feet in one line and eight in another is sanctioned by the best poeta, but all little blemishes sink into significance before the fact that we have asweet singer in our midst’ who will | rank among the children of song as our own Berry Mitchell distances competition upo the histrionic stage. 5 THE venerable collection of municipal spies and informers known as the Citizens’ Com- mittee, which has beep holding meetings in the Lindell Hotel wine-room for several months, is a moral and abstemious institution. Up to this time the receipts at the bar from this committee amount to fifteen cents—one gentieman, in a reckless spirit, having ordered alemonade. Whenthe weather gets Warmer it is proposed to provide a barrel of ice water for the Committee. ALLUSIONS to Grant’s performances at the battle of Shiloh are ill-timed. He was sur- prised and whipped on the first day and was only saved from capture by the arrival of re- inforcements which had been marching to his support for two weeks. He ought to have been court-martialed and dismissed from the army after that fight for criminal negiigence. WHEN Grant tied his neck-tie this morning he bad some doubts whether the red-eyed, frowsy-looking person whom he saw in the mirror was the next President of the United States. This sort of thing will probably re- sult in the purchase of a new looking-glass before the week is out. | — — — WHEN the passengers on the steamer Sara- toga had all landed at Havana, Cuba, the other day, the purser discovered that the specie-room had been broken into and 923, 600 stolen.

Loss of Life at Central Elevator B. " a Serious Damages Suffered in the West- ern Suburbs. 1 — The Roof of the Insane Asy- ; lum Wafted Away. \ - — Lafayette Park Wrecked by the Tornado. 1 —— Fences and Sign-Boards Drifting in All Directions. Shortly after 11 o’clock, while the rain was still steadily pouring down, a terrible gust of wind visited St. Louis. Its velocity and force were unusual, and while it only lasted a few minutes it did a vast amount of damage. Windows were broken; shingles were blown down. The pedestrians who were caught in the sudden squall suf- fered severely. Umbrellas were blown inside out by the score; hats were caught up by the wind and carried along the muddy streets, while the blast whistled with terrible force. damage was also wrought on several buiid- ings. At the northeast corner of Seventh and Chestnut, the house No. 102 N. Seventh was struck by wind with such violence that part of the brick wall was blown down. The house is a three-story brick facing on Seventh tothe corner. It has aslanting slate roof and the brick portion above the third story to the roof was completely demolished by the gust. The falling bricks and de- bris were luckily partially inter- cepted by a wooden porch extending along the pavement, and fortunately no one was burt except one man who was passing, and who was struck on the head by a brick. It only, however, inflicted a slight wound. The porch, of course, was almost destroyed. In a few minutes the Salvage Corps and police were on the spot and an im- mense crowd congregated around the Poly- technic. The porch was pulled down by the ‘Salvage Corps, as it was too rickety to be left standing with safety. The damage done is about $200. The house belongs to Mrs. Lydia P. Meoerse. None of the inmates were damaged. It was some time before the large crowd which had as- sembled dispersed from the scene. Elevator Warehouse Destroyed. The Central Elevator Company has met with anotber loss. Last fall Elevator B, at the foot of Chouteau avenue, was burnt. Forthwith the Elevator Company proceeded to have anew one erected, arid it has only lately been completed. Connected with Elevator B is what is termed the trans- which is a frame structure built on piles on the river’s bank. This was about 200 feet long by 100 broad and between 50 and 60 feet high. With the bins, it con- sisted of three stories. This warehouse is used in loading barges, the grain being temporarily stored therein. The warehouse is connected with the elevator by a bridge commonly called “a boot, along which runs a belt by which the grain is discharged from the eleyator jnto the warehouse. This ware- house was quite new and was barely com- pleted and had been built by Messrs. J. K. Bent & Son. When THE GALE OF WIND struck the city shortly after ll it caught the warehouse with it its full force. About fifteen men were in the bui ding at the time. The first shock felt was a slight sway- ing of thestructure. Themen all hurried out except three, of whom one was killed and two injured. The workmen had no soon- er made their escape than the warehouse fell in witha terrific crash. The roof is almost intact and lies over the debris of planks. It presents the meg of a complete collapse. The belt was lifted out of the boot and blown several yards with terrific force, but did not break. THE MAN WHO WAS KILLED was John Kelly, a bargeman. He had been loading one of the New Orleans Transporta- tion Company's barges this morning, and after be bad done his work lay down in the warehouse to sleep. He was aroused by one of the other workmen as they were getting out of the building, but he refused to stir, preferring to remain inside, and thus he met his fate. The falling timbers crushed him to death. His body was conveyed to the Morgue. The barge Howard was along- side of the elevator when the acci- dent happened, but received no damage. The building fell in towards the shore. No grain was in the elevator. The two men injured were John Wright and John Costello. Tae damage amounts to about $12,000, which of course is a total loss to the elevator company. THE INJURED MEN. Jobr Laban and John Costello, the two men injured, were sent to the Dispensary as soon as the ambulance arrived. Wright is a laborer, living at No.7 North Levee. Costello da a carpenter, and lives with his family near the intersection of Twenty-seeond and Papin streets. Wright’s injuries consist of an in- jured hip and back. From falling timber he received an ugly wound on tne right tem- ple and a stroke on the right side of the head. A falling rd struck him across the face, inflicting adeep gash on the bridge of the nose. While atthe Dispensary he gave the following ACCOUNT OF THE AFFAIR: We were waiting for the rain to stop and had gone under the place toescape getting wet. While there a heavy wind began to blow anda number of boards were flying about. We did not think fora moment that there was the least danger of the building blowing over. A strong blast of wind, whic continued for some minutes, struck under the building and was upsetting it, when I ran with several other men who were working wi me. The heavy timber was soon flying abo inthe air. I was struck with the boards and knocked down several times.“ was in the second story | building, and fared far worse than Wright. He was un- aware of the danger until the blast struck the building. He was struck on the left sid the fece by al and sustained an ugly wound. appearance who is r.

At the cursory examination made atthe Dispeg- 8 it was not known whether he was iater- n injured or not. His t wrist was slightly sprained. Besides these he ved several lacerated wounds about his h and arms. Both the men were attended at the Dispensary by Dr. Renick and forwarded to the City Hospital. ~ The Western Suburbs. Word was briefly telegraphed after the abatement of the gale to the office of the Health Commissioner that the Insane Asphul had been partially unroofed, and that Poor-house building had sustained Ser damage. In the midst of the fierce and ing rainstorm a reporter of the Post-DiIs- PATCH drove out to the city institutions, On the way out Pine street as far as Jeffer- son avenue twenty-seven instances of trees blown down were noticed, but no damage to buildings. In Cheltenham and Rock Springs the storm had raged with fury. The Manchester road was fairly lit- fallen on every band, two brick-making sheds immediately west of the St. Louis, Kansas City and Northern bridge over the read, bad been prostrated, ahay mow near the sheds had been scattered by the winds, and near the Keck Springs a light built, covered spring wag- on such as are used as grocery delivery wagons, had been turned over. The devastation had been great in that sparsely built up seetion of the country on St. Louis heights and lying north of the In- sance Asylum. Light frame structures such asshedsand stables had suifered, and the roads were blockaded by falling trees and overturned fences. THE INSANE ASYLUM. The first thing apparent upon 1 gy 3 into the beautiful park surrounding the Insane Asylum wasthesad havoc created among the trees. A peach orchard numbering about 100 trees had sufferea sadly. The ground was fairly covered by the green fruit, and many of the trees were broken at the thickest portions of their trunk. A giant locust tree, which stood sentinel overthe landscape long before the Daiatia] asylum was thought of, had yielded to the storm king and lay prostrate upon the ground. The asylum, as will be remembered, is composed of a grand central building with mammoth wings east and west, joined to the main build - ing by whatcan only be termed connectin wings. The entire roof is of tin. The win had managed to getunder the roof ofthe connecting wing east, and lifted it, rafters and all, into the air, and hurled it te the lawn, sixty feet below, crushing seygral fine trees, and utterly destroying thé finest flower-bed on the grounds. ‘Dr. Howard, physician in charge, says thatthe gale came as suddenly as it left. It stayed long enough, however, to remove this roof, also a portion of the roof of the engine and pump house in the rear of the asylum, and to destroy the galvanized iron ventilators and iron guttering on both Ba The falling of the roof created a great noise, and the patients confined on the upper became somewhat excited, before they could understand had happened Dr. Howard and his attendants removed them to a lower floor, and quiet was restored. Prompt as the PostT-DISPATCH reporter had been in getting on the scene of the storm's fury, the Health Commissioner was before him, showing signs of having ridden hard, and was examining the damage. While ex- plaining that the loss to the city on this building alone would exceed $2,000, an am- bulance drove up in hot haste. filed with tar- paulins which he had sent for, before leaving the city. These were placed over tue place where the roof had been, and the leak- ing of the rain into the upper ward stopped. At half-past one o clock Com- missioner of Public Buildings Beat- ty arrived and announced that car- penters and tinners had been sent for and would commence repairing the roof this after- noon. AT THE POOR-HOUSE. A visit was made to the Poor-house. The tar-roofing of the engine-house had been blown of, a large window in the male in- sane ward bad blown in, causing great excitement among the patients, and in the female insane ward the wind had got in between the ceiling and roof and lovsened the plaster of the ceiling. The patients were easily quieted, and a. panic prevented by the good dense exercised by the female attendants. The damage will not exceed $500. THE FEMALE HOSPITAL. None of the buildings here were damaged, but trees were blown downin numbers. On the return trip the reporter drove through TOWER GROVE PARK, and found a corps of laborers busy collecting and carting away limbs of trees and whole trees that were blown down. The foreman statedthattherewere about 200 instances of damage of that nature, but that no buildings had been injured. The storm ewept through Shaw’s Garden doing some bad work which was mostly confined to the srborium, al- though some of the glasses in the prupagating heuses had been blown out. OTHER DAMAGE, Driving rapidly down Park avenue the re- porter noticed that the roofs of the buildin No. 2636 and No. 2744 had been blown off. Both were of tin. The Superintendeat of La- fayette Park stated that 130 trees Bad been blown down. The roof of the stable of S. Strauss, at 1842 Kennett place, near Lafayette Park, had been litted bodily in the air and landed on the roof of the residence. A hook and ladder company were engaged in removing it when the reporter passed. All through that section of the city shade trees had been injured and prostrated. East St. Louis. The storm struck East St. Louis from the south side about 11 o’clock this morning, and the strong gale blew for nearly two hours without ceasing for a moment. It swept across the waste just south of the city and struck the buildings on the outskirts with great force. A large number of trees were uprooted. On account of the great distances between the houses the strong wind swept in to the city without much to break its force. Having open avenues along the railroad tracks just east HH Cahokia Creek and up through the streets running north and south down to the commons, the gale struck the center of the city with violence and did great damage. A tall tree, one of a row near the O. and M. track, just north of the Relay Depot, was uprooted and fell upon a two-stor frame building in Railroad w, crushing it to the ground. The house was occupied by Mr. Oliver and his family and two other families. Nine persons were in the house at the time. The huge tree, which was over seventy-five feet high and three feet in circumference, fell on the end of the roof. Immediately under the point where it struck an old man who has been in il] health for time past was lying in bed, and though 1 the main portion of it fell directly over the bed, he esca with but a few scratches. The other e persons escaped by crawling out from u the debris. 5 Louis Sippi's house was unroofed. No one u nt er — In Carondelet. The storm this morning in Carondelet was the severest that has been experienced this season in that part of the city.

M87 culty in effecting landings this morning ow. ing to the great winds. Two sign boards of Morris’ Chestnut, near Fifth, were higb wind this morning. Eleven trees in Washington Park, near Four Courts, and eight in Missouri . Olive street, were blown down. The municipal telegraph wires were blown down, and communication with the outlying stations thus rendered impossible. Sunt. Hilgendorf and a corps of men are at work raising them. About eighty feet of the feace guardin railroad tracks on the eastern "brides ae, proach was blown down this morning. It was quickly removed by the workmen, no trains being delaved. : At 10:45 the rear wall of the three-s brick building 900 Market street Was stroyed. The damage amounted to some $300. The first floor was a saloon kept@by Nathaniel Coulter; the second and third stories were unoccupied. The house is in danger of falling. The drivers along Main and Second streets amused themselves this morning by watching the demolition of umbrellas with persons crossing the streets running. east and west. On the corner of Locust and Main streets no less than a dozen umbrellas were demolished during the blow. — — restaurant, on broken by the Steamer Blown Ashore. | Special to the Post- Dispatch.

He Was at Crystal City. To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: CRYSTAL CITY, JEFFERSON Co., Mo., June 3.—I was very much amused this morning with reading Where He Was—The Adven- tures of Mr. E. G. Peterson.” I think Lein give a little information about Mr. P., but it hardly agrees with the statement he himself made in the car between Crystal and Ivory Stations. In the first place, I keep a boarding-house at Crystal City, about three miles from Crystal Station. On Tuesday afternoon about four o'clock, Mr. Peterson called at my house and AInqutred if Mrs. Price was in, and she was quickly in attendance. Mr. Peterson said he wished to get board for a few days; that he had just arrived from St. Louis in a skiff, be was on a_ pleasure trip and thought of enjoying a few days? fishing. e was, of course, treated witn every courtesy, partook of his supper and ; There was an- Other gentleman sleeping in the room, so they entered into conversation, which elicited the Yollowing story from Mr. P.: “I was on my way home on Monday nicht about 10 o’ciock. when I was struck a violent blow on the head which stunned me, and I recollected no more until I found myselt in a skiff opposite Sul- Springs. I got ashore as soon as possi- N and found had been relieved of all my cash, etc. I then walked here * andl intend to returntoSt. Louis in the morning,’? which it seems he did. I am glad to say the desperadoes left him sufficient money to pay me for his supper and bed. He also had anew s:raw hat which he had bought at Sulphur Springs. He brought with dim one volume of bound novels, and two Bumbers not bound he left here. They were of the Franklin Square Library; one **Mademoiselle de Mersac,” the other „For Her Dear Sake.” Mr. P.’s thrilling narrative might be goed enough to elicit the deepest sympathy from the tender heart of his young and lovin wife, but we 2 — a grain of salt ight be n with the story. I think the family doctor may have more to fear for Mr. Peterson’s reason than for that of his wife.

The visitors and the owners of the stock retreated tothe club-house, and from the quarter- stretch verandah looked gloomily out upon the sullen, dogged rain, which poured down steadily, soon converting the loose, spongy, elastic track intomud. Price McGrath was one of the group, and expressed his disap- ointment,in which Mr. T. B. Harper and Larry Hart joined him. The reporter ven- tured toask Mr. McGrath what he thought of the track. Hereplied that he considered it the safest on the continent.“ SLANDERS ANSWERED. The excellence of the track, aside from dts beautiful level stretches, and gradual, safe curves, consist in the admirable quality of ‘the soil. It contains just enough sand, loam and clay to make it elustic, yet. offering a good, firm surface. When dried after a good wet- ting, it is not hard and crusty, and a single passage over its surface of the harrows re- stores it to perfect condition. Some malicious ersons in this city have written throughout the country to the effect that this traek is bard and dangerous to horses, and that trotting is permitted upon it. These statements are false in every particular. As to the track, the testimony of the twenty-five leading turfmen whose stables are now here is sufficient answer. The statement that trot- ting is permitted on the track is false and evidently made maliciously. The first reform established by Mr. Ecker, when he assumed possession of the track, was to distinctly an- pounce that the track would be maintained especially for running horses. The owners of __ trotters were 80 in- formed, and for that class of turf- men the Fair Association put in order its half-mile track, built new stables, and the trotters are now all domiciled there. On account of the rain Secre Clarkson announced that no exercising would be per- mitted upon the track before Sunday morn- ing. After Sunday all training must be done on the inside track. A TRIP THROUGH THE STABLES. There being no running to see, the grumb- ling visitors after taking breakfast started out in the rain fora visitto the stables. Some of the blanketed animals were being walked slowly under the shelter of the sheds at the in the west end (of the park. The remainder were complacently munching hay in their stables, and, being closely blank- eted, nothing could be seen ofthem. Among the celebrities pointed out 1 Mr. Clarkson. were Verdict, the star of Price McGrath’s stable; Kimbal],Capt.Cottrill’s favorite; Long Taw, the pride of Green Morris’ string, and the celebrated Knight Templar, belonging to the same gentieman; James A. Grinstead’s Liatugab, Milton Young’s Beatitude, Salva- tor and Lizzie ~ S., from whom W. B. Scull expects much; Larry Hart’s Charley Howard and prancing Calico filly; Evans & Co.’s Rosella; Longi- tude, the winner of the Kentucky Oaks, up- on whom Tennesse will go broke; Swigert’s henomenon, Hindoo; Maj. B. T. Thomas’s imyar, who is at the head of the turf; Cot- trili’s, three-year old, Kimball; Ed. Harrison’s bay filly Genevieve; John H. Davis’s Krupp Gun, and Elliot’s brown colt, Duke of Kent. Clarence O’Fallon’s stable of hurdlers, enter- ed for the gentlemen’s hurdle race, were look- ing in fine condition. The jockeys were all in a stew awaiting the ar- rival of the wonderful Volturno, word baving been telegraphed that Powers had ar- rived with that great flyer and five other good ones. McGavick’s stable, from Tennessee, was also announced as having arrived this morn- ing. There remains nothing to be done at the track. Everything is in readiness. The two hundred and twenty-five thoroughbreds on the ground are in superb condition, the horses are the finest lot ever collected ona western track, an attendance of turfmen from all over the country and the presence of people by the tens of thousands is assured, and it only remains for Providence to furnish good weather to make this the most successful running meeting ever held outside of Sara- toga and Jerome Park. THE Chicago Convention will adjourn this afternoon, in order to buy shoes of E. J. Car- ter & Co., 207 North Fifth street. etters AN UNJUST CLAIM. That of a Defunct Bank Against Sheriff Finn. There isa suit in progress before Judge Terat, in the United States District Court to- day that welt illustrates how the law may be used to work a hardship. The case is that of M. H. Phelan, receiver of the defunct Central Savings Bank, against Sheriff Fizn. In 1872 Mr. Finn borrowed a large sum of money through Budd & Wade, the financial agents, with which to pay off an indebtedness to the Central Savings. Forthis he gave deeds of trust. He then gave the Central Savings a sec- ond mortgage for $23,000 on some of the same oes covered by the first deeds of trust. his money he expected to ute in his business. It was agreed between them and the bank of- ficers that the first mortgage should be fore- closed and that the bank should buy in the agi! and protect Mr. Finn’s interest. ben, however, the foreclosure sale took place, the bank allowed the property to go for asong. To illustrate, the house and lot occu- ied by the Globe-Democrat on ‘ourth and Pine, went for $30,000, when it was worth every cent of $60,000. Mr. Finn NEVER DREW FROM THE BANK THE $23,000 for which he had given his notes and deeds of trust, as he concluded not to employ this money in his business, but failed to take up his notes and have the deeds canceled. The result was that after the Central Savings failed, the receiver found) these notes and demanded payment, and the suit going on to-day is to recover the amount. It would be a cruel injustice to make the defendant pay it when he never had the money, and when it was the bank’s fault§that all the property was soldforasong. The whole amount sued for with interest is close on to 000. „E. T. Farish for the defendant, and Mr. WM. R. Walk⸗ er for the plaintiff.

He is a Democrat and ways ofthe Republicans. He became sur- feited with information bully the convention, and then turned to bes - ing.“ "a ow did Conkling and Logan impress > Not as forcibly as I expected. Conkline's efforts were very poor,and Don Cameron amounts to nothing.’’ „Who are the favorites for substitutes for Grant!“ „Sherman and Edmunds. These were all the talk last night. It is the general opinion that there is a combination between Conkling and the Vermont delegation.“ How about room for the crowds?*’ „The ball is simply magnificent, and all the arrangements for the convention are perfect. It was cool and pleasant, the immense audi- dience being fanned by a delightful breeze from the lake. The city Is ‘crammed and jammed with people, but everybody had something to eat and a place to sleep. One thing I forgot to state as showing the shifting of sen- timent. When! first got there the Grant badges were conspicuous, but on yesterday they rapidly disappeared, and when I took a stroll through the hotels last evening | saw very few. The Grant men look depressed. They are very bitter and charge all who are not for their favorite as being enemies of the | nation.’’ „Are there many Democrats there?’’ „Mes; a good sprinkling, and they are eu- joying themselves hugely over the dissensions of their opponents.“ “What wes the talk about the nominee at Cincinnati?’ % Seymour and Morrison were the favorites.
