The call, which was issued several days ezo, was signed by Thos. C. Fletcher, Jacob Klive, John S. Cavender, John C. Vogel and Jos. G@. Lodge, the executive comumitiee of the League. About twenty-one members are reported as beingin attendance. The Call did not state the object of the meeting and every member approached yesterday pro- fessed the most profound ignorance as to what the League would do. It turned out as predicted im yesterday’s Post-DIsPaTCH that the League, or rather some of the attendants atthe meeting, were in favor of holding a State Republican Con- vention. A resolution was, adopted that it was the sense of the league that a convention be held. A copy of this resolution isto Le forwarded to the State Central Committee and the League meets again on the 26th. The meeting and the resolutions were re- ceived in a ratber uproarious spirit by prom- inent Republicans to-day. Forsome reason or other the deliberations of the body that metin Parlor 22 of the Lindell were accorded the same consideration and were piaced in the same category as the pronunciamento of the three tailors of Tooley street. A PostT- DISPATCH reporter met a crowd of prominent Repubiicans near the corner of Fifth and Market this morning. Several of them had been members of the League and were present at last night’s meet- ing. The subject was under discussion, and u member of the League said: ‘‘Can’t you see What this whole thing amounts to?” “No. Thatis, not exactly.” “Well, Ill teli you. It’s a drive at the Ad- ministration. A number of soreheads who did not get What they wanted are now endeavoring to et even by kicking over the traces. Yesterday T ran across » good many members of the League that was, and nore of them propesed | to attend last ni_bi’s meeting. The factis that the Union League of St. Louis is out ef ex- istence and bas been dead for some time. The dues have not been paid, the organiza- tion has lapsed and you wil! notice that Mr. E. 8S. Rowse, the president at the meeting last night, stated that bis term of office as presi- dent expired last December and he wanted to know what they were going to do about it.” “When was the Union League started?’’ “About two yearsago. It was got'en up by Gov. Tom Fletcher, John 8. Cavender, Wm. K. Patrick and a few others. The ob- ject was to get offices for the organizers. It Was secretly started, and was not thrown open to the general public until the organization was fixed and the whip and iines were in the right hands. Then the public was invited to get on the. outside seats where the jolting was most felt, - the chance of being thrown off very good, the occupants of such seats being beautifully ignorant of the directionin which the thing was going. The dark lantern metbod of its organization disgusted the working members of the Republicaa party and they would not touch it. The bership wiil not made up of show that it working Republicans. For a term the League rented and occupied a | room on the corner of Fifth and Market streets. There theexpenses got ahead of the receipts, and to the disgust of the landlord, who had fitted up the headquarters, the building was abandoned. Siace then the Union League of St. Lauis has had no local domicile nor habitation, It mever did any- thing. Its only efforts were to antagonize the city, Congressional and State committees. in all of these attempts i got beautifully left, but it is used to that kind of thing. its really greatest struggle was for Lightuer, one of its members, who wanted to be Mayor in 1881. It dia not help bim much, though, as you will probably recali.’’ “What does itrepresent, and from whom does it derive its authority?’ “It represents itself and derives its author- i | from the same source. When there is an office to be got the members get the old and defunct League to meet and bark on its name as a recommendation. Then, when some other fellow gets the office they hold another meeting and raise h—| generally because the dead League was not respected.”’ Anotber member of the League, not Mr. Charlies A. Stife! was there, but he is not in sympathy with this movement. David P.. ers bas an office. N C. Hudson bas an office that he got by 4 ' seratch Which he cannot wake over again in a , thousand years. Then Judge Krum worked | ail the time for Cayender, and he went up there because the General was going. | Metealfe has an office, which he won’t hold The preparations | | verv long, you may be sure. The rest of the fellows want what they can get,”’ ‘“‘And what was the real purpose of the meeting?” “The organizers were all badly left over | Whitney’s appointment,and tbis is their way ' , ‘ i ' ' ' Filley, when asked about last n'ght’s meet- | ing, laughingly said: “It will scare nobody, but I was surprised at the animus of the | leading mev in getting up last nighbt’s meet- ing. You will notice that some of those who signed the call were not present. Jos. Lodge, for instance, never intended to xo. Then Jacob Kiine, another signer, open- ly opposed the resoluiion arging the State Committee to call a convention. Ob, let them meet. It does nobody any harm at aii.” Later in the dav another member of the now defunct League was met. The reporter attempted to interview him, but he took the business into his own hands, as follows: *You bave read the pames of the men who! He ihas were present last night?” **Yes,”’ said the reporter, baa | ee that you have heard that forthe last t vbe Surveyorship of the Port, the place Whitney got. If you have not. it tk a fact all the same, You may also have heard that Cavender is right mad at the Acministiation, as the young jadies would sav, He claims that the Presi - dent promised him the piace on the 26:h of July, and even avers that the President hed tobim. Now Johii Cavender was in parlor 22 last night. ‘The pubiic knows that Tom Fletcher En coter his time and money in going to Washington to urge Cavender’s claims. Now Fieteber has been left before, and he ought to be used to it by thie ime. One time be thought be was Governor of New Mexico, but somehow, by some hocus-pocus, aman named Shelton, from Ohio, got there first and Tom came back to Si. Louis. Well, Fietcher was ov hand last night, was he not? Then there is E. S. R-wese, late president of the defunct League aod the brother. in-law of Gen. Cavender. Rowse and Cavender are partoers in business, and Rowse has been trying to get Cavender out for some time. Ue thoughtit would be a good plan to have the General made Surveyor of the Port and drop him that way. So be wéut to work by activeiy getting up petitions aud letters, and fring off telegrams.

They make this fight on the State Committee, which is carrying owt the Administration policy, to show that they feel sore. ‘*Do they want anything else?” “Yes, get Filley’s circular and you will see another good reason. Fiiley says that the real Cause why the kickers want a conven- tion is as follows: They are satisfied that not a single Republican or Greenback Congress- man can or willbe elected frém the State; that, therefore, the position of chairman an‘ secretary of the State Committee for the last two years of thegAdministration will be important and secure the soie and exciusive dispensation ofthe patronage of the State, Filiey calls them the pap and patronage brigade ou this account. They think that if a convention was beid and another committee was selected, they might get a little on the inside, Now they are out altogether. Their last misfortune was when Arthur had the temerity to appoint Whitney aad pass Over Cavender. They wouid do anything sooner than remain on the outside for the last two years of the administration, with no chance to do anything or get anything, as they suppose. These feliows weuid like to usurp the place beld by Congressmen and the State Com- mittee,’? *W bat wiil be their success?” “Just What it has always been.’’ **No convention will be called?” **Not for them, you may be sure.”? The same gentieman said that it was non- sense for the meeting last night to talk about the organization of the Republican party. The party was better organized than ever, in fact it never was organized until now. A call was made at Mr. Chauncey [. Filley’s residence, but that gentleman had nothing to say about the meeting and absolutely refused to be interviewed on the subject. AN OFFICIAL PRIZKH FIGHT, In Which Coroner Frank Acted as Keteree. The dullness at the.Four Courts was alle- viated yesterday by a boxing match between Janitor Waters and John Kinney, both of whom are exceedingly handy with the gloves. The contest, which was the result of Waters’ chalierge to knock Kinney out of time in four rounds, was timed by Coroner Frank, who is an old athlete himself. The officers assembled in the Criminal Court- room, which is in course of renovation. The ring was pitched and the Marquis of Queensbury ruies—three-minute rounu and one rest—were accepted to govern the fight. The first round was opened with half a dozen well made passes varried with equal skill by the combatants. Waters dropped his guard unwarily and forthwith collided with 4 straight-from-the-shoulder from Kinney’s right, going to the pine boards and ending the first round. record of its first mem=/Jn the second round an adroit tap from was | Waters’ right lifted Kinney from the floor | 7 ' and lilinois,tbe club having'sent invitations to | | nearly all the mutes in the country, of which | The for a moment, but he alighted perpendicular- | ly and repeated his performance in the first - round with a similiar result.

A $1,500 EMBEZZLEMENT, William P. Anderson Arrested for the Crime. Last night about 9 o clock Deputy Sheriffs Elert and Walters arrested William Pb. An- derson at the boarding-house northeast corner Tenth and Locust streets, on acharge of embezzlement. For some time past An- derson has acted in the capacity of agent for George C. Ware, a vinegar manufacturer of Cincinnati, and has had an office at No. 618 Washington avenue. Lately, the proprietor suspected that his empiove had net made proper re- turns to him of the business in St. Louis, and upon investigating found his suspicions veri- fied. The books and accounts show, -acecord- ingl'o Ware and his attorney, a deficit of over $1,500. On Tuesday of this week Joseph G. Lodge, representing Ware, laid two complaints against Anderson, in the first cuarging an embezzile- ment of $400, and inthe second $1,162. The officers found the man in his boarding-house and took him to jail at the Four Couris, where he is now locked up. Anderson does not deny taking the money, or at least a por- tion of it. He says that personal embarrass- ment led him to use the money, with a hope of replacing it before it was missed. many friends in the city who are surprised to learn of the affair. Heretofore he has enjoyed a good reputation for Lonesty. The Rice-Benefit. The complimeniary benefit to Edward E. Rice, on Friday and Saturday evenings of this week, willbe an occasion On which very un- usual attractions will be presented to his many iriends. The Pickwick Military Band wili give one of their attractive concerts for one hour before the performance, while the reguiar orchestra will discourse selections from Offenbach and Suliivanfand a new series of waltzes and schultisches under the direction of the er, the beneficiary, Mr. ice, The regular company wili present the second act of “Caste,”? and the second sct of “Fan- ehou,” with Miss Louise.

A Silent Picnic at Sharp shooter’ Grove: Unspoken Love-Making—Flirtation on the Fingers—A Singular Gathering.’ Sharpshooters’ Grove, six milesout on the St.Charles rock-road, has gained considerable notoriety as a pleasant resort, but seldom in the history of the place has such a quiet and orderly crowd assembled there as the three bundred men, women and children. who assembled to-day, for to-day the deaf mutes of St. Louis and its suburbs are celebrating their fourth anpual picnic. A Post DISPATCH reporter visited the grounds this murning. Every one seemed to be making the most of the occa- sion, as far as enjoying themselves was concerned and yet the grove was almost as silent 28 MN yraveyard at midnight. So different from what the average picnic furnishes-—not a voice to be heard, the dancing hall deserted, musicians missing and almost everything just the reverse of what the general picnic - goer delizghtsin. While the reporter was standing a short distance from the groups — studying the scenes before him a police- man walked up fromtbe rear and sudden- ly awoke him from his reverie by slapping him on the shoulder and remark- ing there would not be many rows to write up there to-day. The vo.ce was the first the reporter had heard for nearly an hour, ard seemed almost sacrilegious among so many silent groups. “This,” continued the police- man, “is the quietest crowd [ ever struck. If all the picnics in this neighbo: hood weré as quiet and the attendants so well behaved the lives Of the policemen and public would not be endangered every Sunday.” In one corner of the grove, away from the crowds, the reporter accidentally came across a young gouple seated on a log, evidently desirous of attracting no attention. They were lovers, their every action, the confiding manner. in which her head nestied on his shoulder, the tender looks beaming from their eyes. the gentie pressure every now and then of the hands clasped together, and above ail the tell- tale blush that overspread the countenance of the young lady and the indiguant look flashed by her hinieee upon the intruder when dis- covered, more eloquently expressed their feei- ings and told betier thatit was the old, oid story than any words could express it. The performance is almost the same in all cases, ihe only difference being that in this case an olly tongue could not give utterance of undying love and unswerving affection which the heart knew were faise and never intended to be keptsacred. In another part ofthe grove a rope was tied around trees, forming acireie, and about twenty lads and jasses engaged in playing ‘*Copenhagen.” The game is played by one person, generaliy amaie, beinginside the circle, the others on ihe outside with their bands on the rope. The prisoner marches approaches them. When the _ prisoner touches a hand the owner takes his place in the ring§and forfeits a kiss,provided she is caught. The reporter was an interested spectator forsome time and draws the follow. | ing conclusions: Should the young lady betoo | fleet of foot and di-tance her pursuer, treache- | erous twig will intervene aod trip the fugi- tive, one foot will strike against the otber and cause her downfall, or some other fortune will occur which wiil preyent the young lady gaining the goal without being captured and paying the forfeit. rot The proceeds of to-day’s picnic, along with donations already made, will be devoted to tbe formation of a benevolent association for mutual protection and instruction, The plan was canvassed at the park this afternoon and September 9 selected to bold a meeting at Lightstone’s Hall and perfect arrangements. Mutes from several suburban towns were | in attendance, besides some from Indiana it is estimated there are about 52,000, following is alist of the present officers: George Dougherty, president! Mr.-W. EK, i GUESS, vice-presideut; M. de Smith, Se cretal Vv. A. H. Keohimetz, treasurer, and Mr. Stock- THE DEATH-DEALING SAUSAGE. A French Market Caterer Who Serves Up Trichiaz on the Hali-Sielh Dr. Lachmund, of No. 1207 Dilion street, yesterday made a discovery which may wel! cause a thrillof apprelension to climb the spinal marrow of our German fellow-citizens, and of all other lovers of sausage as wel}, On Tuesday the Doctor purchased at the French Market, at the stall of a dealer named Schmidt, a quantity of the viand called which, in the absence of translation, may be described as asmoked gausave of a partien- larly palatabie Kind. The Doctor intended the wurst for home consumption, and thought he had secured a prize indeed, as the stuff looked and smeiied unusually appe- tizing. Previous to sending it tothe tabie, however, the Doctor cut off a few pieces and subjected microscopic inspection. His rejoicing at a narrow escape from death may, be imagined when he found the sausage to be full of tri- chire. The doctor returned at once to the buekster who had sold him the sausage and demanded ai eXpianation. Schmidt stated in reply that he bad procured tbe sausage from a large anu- facturing concern in Milwaukee and promised not to sell any more of it. The probability that earlier purchasers than Dr. Lachmuud have by ibis time been already poisoned beyoud hope of recoverycis extreme. | Schmidt will be prosecuted under the following provisions of revised ordinance: Section 7, chapter 14, provides: “Whoever shall sellany kind of diseased, corrupted, adulterated or unwholesome provisions or meat to be used for food or drink without making the saine known at the time of saieio ihe purchaser shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor.’’ The penaiiy provided to be inflicted is a fine of not less than $25 nor more than $100, Itis properto state tuat Dr. Robert Luedeking, the clerk; of the Board of Health. to Whom samples of the sausage were forwarded by Dr. Lachmund has been unable, even afte: a thorough avd patient inve-|igation, to discover any impuri- ties in the meat.

Death of James L. Sloss After Several Years’ Liiness. James L. Sloss, of the well known cotton firm of Gilkeson & Sloss, No. 120 North Main street, died this morning at 8 o’clock after an iliness with which he has been inflicted sey~ eral years. There were few men in St. Louis who stood higher in the estimation of their fellow-men. He was ever noted for his upright- ness and his enterprise, and was devuted to the task of making St. Louis the | great cotton market of the country. He had just returned from an Eastern tour, but had not been abie to attend te any business since his arrival, and his death, although sudden, was to a ceitain extent looked for, though it is a severe biow to his family and friends. Mr. Sioss was born in Florence, Alabama. 'His father was a Presbyterian mina- ister, and from him was inherited that deep religious feeling that ever found a place in Mr, Sloss and made him so prominent and respected a member of Dr. Brooks’ church. He came here just: as the late civil War was | breaking out and founded the house of Gil- | keson & Sloss in 1861. Since its earliest in- ‘ception he has been a recognized leader | among the cotton factors,and has always Deen among the feremost to take steps tofurther the interests of ibe business. He was one of the first directors of the Compress Com- pany, of the Texas and St. Louis Railway and in numerous insurance and other cor- porations. He was elected last year to the presidency of the Cotton Exchange, and this morn- ing the Board of Directors held a prelin.inarvy meeting to take appropriate ac- tion on his death, but in the absence of suffi- cient data regarding his demise and funeral, no definite action was taken, save that the rostrum and entrance ordered draped in mourning. Mr. Siozs was married in 1858 to Miss Blood, daughter of the late Sullivan Biood, by whom be has had six children. CITY PERSONALS. Mr. O. P.

By a resolution of the Board of Police Commis- sioners the ordinance was published in 6s Any person whoshalil on any Sabbath day, or any other day of the week, disturb the peace by disorderly alley, pe Saintes thoroughfare, or any public place lie resort for pleasure or amusement placard form. It reads as follows: riotous or any park, any noisy, conduct in street, or pub or other purposes, or "persons or any who shall lounge, stand or loaf around or about or at any street corners or other pub- lic places in the day or night time, or who shall use indecent, loud or profane lancuage on the public streets or in other public places, or Who shall purchase or other- wise acquire any beer, wine or spirituous or uantities greater than one-half pint, and drink the same upon the public streets, alleys, parks or places in the city, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemean- or and - upon conviction thereof shal! be _— e malt liquors by the measure or in other public thorvughfares or not less than $% nor more than $60. above prevision not to apply to workingmen drinking beer at their lunc their places of work.” “Numerous complaints made to the police,” said Chief Campbell, “necessitated the strict enforcement of this ordinance, which has been on the books for some time.” “*Is it not specially directed against ‘mash- ers?’ ”? “Yes, it is directed against street mashers of all descriptions, and covers the ground very compileteiy. Points all through ibe city sare infected with crowds of y ung men, some of whose whole time is spent in insultingly ogiing ladies. Others are more forward. You might be Walkiog with a lady through one of those districts When some one in the crowd would make an insulting remark. It is not pleasant to step from a lady’s side toengage in a street fight, and what is more, it Is a dangerous un- dertaking, owing to the great number in these gangs. The officers have been in- structed to strictly enforce the provisions of the ordinance, and I believe it will result in much good.’’ GOD’S NATURAL TEMPLE. The Camp-Meeting Opens at the Marvin Ground, Camp Marvin presents an unusually indus- trious appearance to-day. A number of men have been ay work for the past week clearing away the rubbish that has collected about the grounds during the season of in- activity, and in cleaning and preparing the cottages fur the use of the familie. who are to occupy them during the coming congrega- tion of Christians. The houses and tents will have a capacity of about 1,000 persons. Mr. Samuel Cup. les, of this city, visited the grounds on Tuesday, and expressed himself as being much gratified with the general ap- pearance of the piace. He _ also stated that the prospects at present indicate an unusually large attend- ance. Furniture cars and wagons of all de- scriptions arrive hourly to deposit their loads of turniture and camp effects. The taber- oacle tent has already been erected and the workmen are busy putting in the wooden benches and scattering straw over the grounds for the comfort of tne congrega- tion. The quarters for the Metropoli- tan police and their horses and equipments have also been patin order. A charge of | fifty cents will be made for the feeding, cor- raling and watering of horses. The rule pro- hibiting the hitching of horses to trees and fences will be strictiy adhered to this year, and tbe police will be instracted to piace all animals found in tne above position in the corral at the expense of th@ owners. Private conveyances are recommended as the best mode of reaching the grounds.

Commissioner Decides Against the Roustabouts in the Tatum Case. United States Commissioner Selby decided this morning the case of the Fannie C. Tatum roustabouts’ wages, the evidence in which occupied several days. The Commi-sioner concluded from the evidence that the men were inthe wrong for refusing to obey the orders of the boa'’s officers, first Girardeau, where they declined to sales oe load of barreéis until after supper, and again within 26 miles of port, whenjthey declined to ooeee into the hold and clean it out. The mMmissioner refuses to grant a writ of libel sgainst the boat for the wages of the sixteen men who refused to obey orders. They can appeal from this de. cision by calling for a review of the testimony by Judge Treat sitting in edmiraity cases next November. It is not likely that anything further will be done, however. The Com- missiover commented unfavorably upon the conduct of the officers of the boat at Paducah when they wanted to ship the roustabouts back to St. Louis at a reduced rate of wages after engaging them at a fixed rate, EAST ST.

The people of Mexieo are bright and industrious and appreciate the prospect of a closer relationship between themselyes and the people of the United States with very genuine pleasure. The Death Roll.

THOMAS HaRpY. FRENCH FEMALE CONVICTS. How the Governor Helps them to Hus- bands and Reformation. ‘From the Cornhill Magazine, French female prisoners and convicts are treated with more kindness, on the whole, than persons Of their class are in England. Their matrons and warderesses are Augus- tine nunt, Whoso rule, though firm, is gen- tier, more merciful and more steadfastly equitable than that of laywomen could be. The female convicts are allowed the same privileges a8 the menin the matter of earn- ipg money and buying things at the canteen. Those of them who are young alsoenjoy a privilege not granted to female convicts in otber countries—that of having husbands provided by the State. Only these husbands ust be conviets. Every six months a notice is circulated in the female penitentiaries calling upon all je women who fee! minded to gu out to New Caledonia and be married to make an appiication § to that effect through the Gov- ernor. Elderly womon are always very prompt in muking such application, but they are notentertained. The matrimonial cindi- dates must be young, and exempt from phyai- cal infirmities. Girls under long sentences readily catch at this method of escaping from the intolerable tedium of prison life, and the pretty ones are sure to be put on the Gov- ernor’s list, no matter bow frightful may be the crimes for which they have been sen- tenced. The only moral qualification requis- jte is to have passed at least two years in the Penitentiary. The selected candidates have to sign engagements promising to marry con- victs, and to settle in New Caledonia for the remainder of’their lives. On these condi- tions, the Government transports them, gives them a decent outfit, and a ticke- et-of-leave when they laad at Nou- mea. Their marriages are arranged for them by the Governor of the colony, who has a selection of well-behaved convicts ready for them to choose from, and each girl may consu!t her own fancy within certain limits, for the proportion of marriageable men to women is about threetoone. Of course, if the girl declares that none of the aspirant bridegrooms submitted to herin- gepection have met with her approval, the Governor can only shrug his shoulders in the usual French way. It bas happened more thanorce that pretty girls have been wooed by warders, free settlers or time-expired soldiers and sailors, instead of convicts. Ia such cases the Governor can only assent toa marriage On condition that the female con- vict’s free lover shall place himself in the po- sition of a ticket-of-leave man, and undertake never to leave the colony. Love works won- ders, and there is no instance on record of aman having refused to comply with these conditions when once he had falien in love. There are some instances, though, of the authorities having declined to leta female couvict marry afree man, when they were not convinced thatthe iatter was a person of firm character and Kindly disposition. For the women’s own sakes itis necessary that they shouid not be married to men who would be likely, in some moments of temper, to fling their disreputable antecedents into their teeth. There is nothing of this kind to fear when a femaie convict gets wedded toa man whose past life has been as bad as her own. Why the French Government should have saddied it-elf with the responsibiliiy of promoing marriages among convicts it is dificult to say; butthe experiment has, on the whole, yielded very good results. The married couples get huts and free grants of Jand, and a!i they can draw from it, by their own labor, becomes theirs. During five years they are subjected to the obligation of report- ing themeelves weekly at the district police oftice, and thev are forbidden to enter public houses, aud must not be found outside of doors at night. Tbis probationary period being satisfactorily patsed, they get their fu!l freedom, but subject always to the condition of remaining inthe colony. To this ru'e the jaw has distinctly forbidden that any excep- tion shall be made. On no account whatever must convicts who have accepted yvrants of land and contracted ‘‘administrative mar- ri:ges,’’ as they are called, ever re- turo to France. They are aL liberty, however, to send their chil- dren to France if any respectable person in that country will become answerable for them aud undertake to provide them with a gocd edu- cition. The sovs of convic’s are born French subjects, and will be required at the age of tweuaty to draw at the conscription and serve their appointed terms inthearmy. From what p ece'e: i! may be inferred that the lot of convicts in New Caledonia is afairiy pleas- ant one; but we have spoken as yeioniy of those convicts who have tickets-of-leave, and are more or less free to roam over the whole isiand. Those who have not earned tickets- of-leave are kept in the penal settlements of the island of Nou, or are employed on public works, roudi-making, house-buillding, etc., in gangs, moving and encamping from pisce to place during the fine season, under military escort. The lot even of these convicts can not be called a hard one as com- pared with that of conyictsin other countries, and of French convicts uoder tne old system of bagnes, or transportation to Cayenne. The climate of Cayenne was so deadly that ali the convicts transported there either died or con- tracted incurabie maladies. As for the old bacnes of Brest and Toulon, they were verv helix, where the convicts were kept chained in couples and were trea'ed pretty much like wild beasts. The c imate of New Caledonia, on the coutrary, is delightful, and the soil of the aifferent islands is so fertiie that corn, fruit and vegetabies grow therein abundance, and can be had veiy cheap. In 1873 an at- tempt to cultivate vines Was commenced, but hitherto the experiment has not met with ‘ full success. It is said, however, that the difficulties which have beset the vine-growers will be overcome in time. Concerning Lager Beer. Froma New York Letter. Does it pay todrink iager? Let this ques- tion be answered by the fact that the de- ceased brewer, Joseph Doelger, who came hither a poor emigrant, left a million. There are nearly eighty rich brewers in this city, the teading speciaity being lager. The consumption of the latter is now greater than ever, and yet it is one of the worst of all bot weather beverages. This is due to the fact that ingredien* are use! to increase thirst, and hence a lager drinker never has enougn. The more he drinks the greater nis thirst. In this manner the drioker’s pocket is emptied, while the brewer becomes a capi- talist. There are topers here who will drink three gallon®, and 1n some instances five gal- lons, of lager in one day, and even then zo to bed a The best bc veraze for quench-. ing thirst is coid tea. The Germans, how- ever, will have their lager. The Rev. Dr. Tyngz’s Trouble. New York Correspondence Troy Tirics. More thau a year ago Stephen H. I'yng re- signed the pulpit of Holy Trinity and wen: ‘abroad as a life insurance agent. The public “was generaily surprised, but since then some explanations bave béen given for this unex- pec ed movement. It is nighiy probable that the latter was chi: fly due to financial difiicul- ties of a peculiar characier, a revelation of which would have impaired his clerical po- ritio.. The factis young Tyng was a victim of etock speculation, and though churca- going people are often addic'ed to this form of gambling they are unwilling to allow | he same privilege to the clergy. Tyng’s specu- — lations were unfortunate, but why indeed enould be not lose as wellas the other stock gamblers? The chances are as much against &amanin Wall street as they are at a faro bank. Howmuch Tyng lost is not known. The sum, however, was encugh to ruin him (financially), and one broker brought action for $5,000, this being tbe balance due on their gaming transactions. Tyng at first in- duced the brokerto give him time, and an appointment for consultation was made; but on the day previous to this appointment the unfortunate speculator sailed for Europe. The lawyers, however, got wind of tbis in- tended movement and served summons just as Tyng was bidding farewell to America. The case will probably go into the hands of »a referce, and its detdiis will then be made public, Glidelia Breaks Dowa. From the New York Herald. Captain Wiliam M. Couner’s famous mare Glidelia broke down while ai exercise at Sar- atoga On Sunday morning, and,her case being a hopeiess one, it has been decided to breed her to Mr. George Lorillard’s Sensation. Gli- delia was foaled iu 1877, aud was one of the live Bonnie Scotlands bred oy Messrs. J. and A. C. Franklin, .of Gallatin, Teun., and so!d by them at auction on Apri: 39 the following year. The five included Luke Biackbura, John, Happy and Beloxi in addition to Gli- delia, she being the only fiiiy in the lot. Subsequent to the sate sne passed into the possession of her present owner, in whose name she ‘has always run. Glidelia’s first appearance was in the Sar- atoga Siakes on July 29, 1879, when she was unplaced to Mr. George Loriuard’s pair, Sensation and Grenada, and Keata. She met with no better succexs in the Kentucky Staies,won by the latc Mr. Ulabaugh’s Oden, bulin the Windsor Hotel Stakes #60 was placed to her owner’s credit for getting third piace to Grenada aud Luke Biackpurn. Next time Glidelia scored a win, defeating Carita, Luke Biackourn and four others for the Day Boat Line Stakes, worth $1,050 to the winner. This completed her work for the season, and it remained for her to snow as a three-year- old her great excelience, a remark equally applicavie to her old paddock compaaion, Luke Blackburn. In 1880 sbe began by wine ning the Mermaid Stakes at tue inaugural meeting of the Coney Island Jockey Ciub, with Withers’ Nancy second, but in the Monmouth Oaks these positions were reversed, Giideiia suffe ing a bead de- feat. Tne Aiabama and Wes: End Hotel Stakes at Saratoga were easily credited to Captain Conner, but Jater on Glidelia failed to give five pounds to Girofle in the Claren- don Hotel Stakes, aud for the Kenner Stakes was beaten by Luke Blackbura, Dut Most ex- pectedly defeated Oden in their places. Then ensued ner wins in the Hunter Siakes, at Je- rome Park, and the Vestal Stakes, at Balti- more. ‘The last actin her three-year-old ca- reer was running a dead heat with Grenada for the Breckinridge Stakes, the coit having” to carry a penalty of five pounds for winning the Dixie Stakes. A telegram was sent to Mr. Lorillard at New York asking bow he wished the race decided, and the answer came back, ‘*Divide,’’ ana divided the stakes were. Last year the weakness in Wii- delia’s legs almost put a stop to her training, and she was never in condition, the consequence being that she went five times to the post, but failed to win acent, and in July she was put out of train- ing. A good, long rest and careful nursing On the part of her trainer, George Rice, brought the mare out again this year in greatiyimproved shape, taough the weak forelegs were always a source of anxiety. During the early spring, when she was being worked at Nashbviiic, her trainer said he did not expect to get more outof her than one vood race, butshe nas belied his expectations, having won no iess than eight outof ihe eleven for which she has started, including the Merchants’ Stakes and Ilron Stakes at Pitisburg and the Grand Prize at Saratoga on the 5:b inst., the other races being purses. ——— - At the New York Morgue. From the New York sun. A recent experiment at the Morgue witha new process for rendering drowned bodies recoguizabie was interrupted by the ideniifi- cation of the body bv friends. So far as it went, however, ii showed the practicability of removing some of the obstacles in the way of recognizing the bodies recovered daily from the rivers and the bay. Deputy Kveeper Fogarty, who assists Keeper White in the } care of the Morgue, and has been there since 1874, was asked what he thought of the new process. ‘*To tell the truth,” he said, “I can’t see the use of it. As a genera! thing bodies are recognized by the clothes. e have a record book of clothing and articles found on the person. lt is a common thing, also, fora body to be recognized fiom the record we keep of missing persons. jThere were 5,500 bodies brought to the Morgue iast year. a « only 150 of them were sent to P.tter’s Field unrecogniz-d. As the law requires u~ to keep a body only seventy-two hours, it often hap- pens that afier a body is interred in Po tir’s Field the f iends recognize it not only by ite clothing but by the photograph which is taken ot every unrecogn:zed body before burial, underthe plan adupted by Comm ssioner Brenna in 1868. The fact is, therefore, that in all probability mone are ever kept in Pot- ter’s Field who bave any friends in the neich- -borbood to desire that they should be buried elsewhere. e ‘There have been many exveriments in em- balming bodies in the Morgue. Inventors are turning upali the time with new patents. Tne body of Mrs. Berger, who died in the In- sane Asylum, was embsaimed and kept here two years. There are severai -enbaimed bodies that are upin the museum and have been kept about fourteen years.’ “There are stories of men being robbed and dressed up in old clothes and thrown in theriver. ButIdo not think that any cases of that kind get througb the Morgue withou: discovery. If @people have any friends, and are at all respectable, they are pretty sure to be missed, and the description gets here be- fore the body comes. But, of course, it will not do sny harm to have aij the bodics em- baimed and made recognizable, if there is auypody to pay forit. The present need of the Commissioners, however, is to get money enough to put up good necessary buildings and pay their emplo) es fair wages.” A Village at Auction. New York Leiter to Troy Times. The anncouncemeui of Feltville at auction recalis some interesting reminiscences, David Felt is now forgotten, but he was a v»yeat man in his day, and I can remember when he retired from business with a large fortune. He was ai the bead of the station- ery business in America, and,in order to erpetuate his name, he founded a village in New Jersey and called it Feltville. After Felt had passed away, another littie great man «p- peared and made bis brief seusation. This was S. P. Townsend, the sarsapariila hum bug. He made a fortune out of Dis nosirum, aud, as Felt was dead and his village was for sale, Townsend bougbt it on speculation. Town- send was ambitious to own a piace of this kind, and be was also ambitious to own the finest house in New York. He purchased a Fifth avenue corner, and erected a house 50 grand that its interior Was a public curiosity. Townsend admitted visitors attwenty-five cents a ticket, and gave the proceeds to char- itv. He afverward failed, and Stewart bought the house, which be demolished, and erected in its place the preseat marble pal- ace. Feltville also passed out of Townsend’s hacde, snd he died poor. The village is again forsale. Thus the world comes and goes, leaving, a8 Shakespeare says, “not a wrack behind.” A party of officers and citizens of Savan- nah, Mo., are scouring the woods in the neighborhood of that town in search of Heury Smith, a section hand on the Kansas Ci:y, St. Joseph and Council Biuffs Railroad, who, on @Tuesday, outraged a 12-year-old gir! namea Linders. _— ~~ —- REWARD ide ea stem ir : UB i; iY wd “ a hereby gree - all creditors and others Doyle Thomas Doyle, that I, the undersigned, administrator of deceased, sxid estate intend to make a final settiement thereof at (ue next term of the Probate Court of Vity of St. Louis, to be holden at the Court-house of saia city on the second Monday of september next.

SS THE Queen’s loyal subjects at Halifax are thrown inte a state of excited perplexity by the purchase of the schooner Conquest for Gen. BEN. BUTLER, of Boston. Suspicious circumstances attending the purchase and outfitting of the schooner for an alleged voy- age to Port Crockett,in Madagascar, have conjured up visions of piracy on the high seas or of a filibustering enterprise upon the coast of Ireland at least. BENJAMIN has probably obtained reliable pointers on the place where Capt.

Bors the Greenback and the Republican conventions of the Twelfth Illinois (Gen. SINGLETON’S) District have adjourned with- out making nominations for Congress. SINGLETON’S bolting or independent race against his successful competitor for the Democratic nomination will ‘‘raise Cain” among the Democrats in that district. When Democrat meets Democrat in hostile array the carnage is always as protracted and frigntful as an encounter of Kilkenny cats. In this contest the old war between the TIL- DEN and the BILL ALLEN elements of the party will break out afresh, and great aval- anches of harmonizing defeat will be required to raze out the traces of the conflict in the Democratic bosom. AT the meeting ofthe Union League held in this city last night to oppose Mr. FILLEY’s management ofthe Republican party, a cer- tain Mr. KLINE admitted that it might not be a wise thing for the party to hold a State convention now on account of certain trouble- some questions that would have to be met.

H. RUSSELL is still pushing his investigations in the undiscovered East. His observations, which are crystalized for the Republican, are marked by simplicity, but some of his marvelous statements relative to distances and the locations of towns are received here with the same sort of\incredulity that met the strange narrations of MARCO POLO in the intellectual salons of Venice. In his last let- ter he tells of a trip up the Hudson River, in the course of which he swept past the sum- mer residence of Mr. TILDEN near Yonkers. The fact that Mr. RUSSELL did not stop off and eat two or three meals with the old gen- tleman is being largely commented on in political circles here in St. Louis, but it is understood that Mr. RUSSELL has not obli- gated himself to mention ali his personal ad- ventures in his notes of summer travel. He is devoting himself largely to commercial and vital statistics. SS A WASHINGTON correspondent, writing about President ARTHUR’S equipages, says: **On the pauel of Mr. ARTHUR’S Carriage is his coat-of-arms, large, bright and hand- some.’? Thisis the first intimation we have had that the snobbish and aristocratic tom- foolery introduced in Washington by BREw- STER had corrupted the President. If CHET (we mean the President) has really plastered for attempting suicide is that he is not pun- ishable if insane, and if sane is certainly a better judge than any one else of the circum- stances of his life and of whether it is worth patiently enduring or not. Of course if his attempt on his own mis- erable life is calcvlated to wrong or injure any one else, it should be punished, if possible, as any wrong or attempted wrong to others should be. Butto declare an acta felony and punish it as such when it involves no wrong or injury to others, either directly or indirectly, and when on the contrary the consummation of it would relieve others and society at large of a burden, is at variance with the philosophy and policy of our criml- nal jurisprudence. Take the case of a poor man hopelessty disabled, utterly incapable of assisting his family tosupport bim in any way, with barely mind enough left to be conscious of his misery and of the terrible burden his life must be to those who are dearest to him. When there is no insurance on his life, what element of malum in se could the law-makers detect in his suicide? A lee- islative enactment founded on the canon which the Almighty has fixed against self- slaughter may make ita malum prohibitum; but when his attempt to take his life is suc- cessful no human power can punish him for it, and when itis unsuccessful why should a sentence for felony be imposed to double the misery of the wretch and render his suicidal motive and tendency still more irresistible? The sole object of this bit of fancy legislation seems to be to make suicides §more careful and successful in their attempts.

We want to see the allegoryin ail its com- pleteness. A good design for him would be a New York ward politician rampant and a Custom-house officer couchant holding his open hand behind his back; but of course the President has gone depeer into heraldry than this.

Mr. HENRY HEYMAN, basso in Dr. ARMITAGE’S churehn choir in New York City, was recently one of the guests of a large summer boarding-house at Bath, L.

In a room right over the parlor were Mr. S. R. MORRIS, a banker, and W. J. MORRIS, his brother, a civil engineer, both of whom ran out to Bath every night for a quiet gountry sleep away from the noises of New York. Theystamped on the floor of their room and made other signs of extreme distress that were heard in the parlorin vain. The dismal concerts con- tinued, until at last one night the enraged brothers waylaid Mr. HEYMAN at the head of the stairs as he was retiring, knocked him down, beat him severely and stabbed him in the windpipe with an ice-piek, so as to spoil his voice, if possible. was willing to see either one of them kill Another boarder who Hughes, his mother, a strong and vigorous woman of eighty-seven years of age, acts as treasurer of the school board of the colony. —The bi-centennial anniversary of the landing of William Penn is to be celebrated in Philadelphia next week.

St. Louis, August 17, 1882. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: There has been much said in regard to For- estry, but so far allthese reportscome from parties who seem, in my estimation, to knuw very little of the true status of the order, and from people who have very little regard for truth or good moral principles, and who are possessed with a desire to break up a noble institution, and all for the degrading purpose of having satisfaction against two or three of its members. When we ane Se matter toits leve], wecan readily see thatthe principle and good work of the United Order of Forestry is above reproach. The animus of ail this slanderous attack is due to personal antagonism between fouror five members of thisorder, and through the un- principied actions and contemptible slurs hurled at each other through cur daily papers, tne othermembers of the order are com- pelled to bow their heads in gshame for those who are past shame, and to-day, should this order disband (which is absurd to think of), who would be the robbers of the widows’ and orphans’ fund? Would it ve those who are standing by the order, or would it be the ones who leave the order and de- nounce its officers and noble principles? I Say, most emphatically. that the latter wouid prove the destroyers and the robber of the just Gues of the widows and orphans. There huve been assertions made by members of the order, upon the streets, in by-ways and public resorts, in direct violation of obliga tions madeinall orders, and such are the men who are urging discord, and it’s high time the Chief Ranger of Missouri, aided by his committee, should enforce the laws gov- erning acts of this* nature, and thin out the weeds in order that the pass may grow—a task that the better class of Forestry had best begin at ohce.

How the Missouri Pacific Railroad Cares for Its Employes. A Description of the Institution at S dalia. | Corporations are considered soulless, and railroad corporations particulurly so, but the unostentatious and perfect manner in which the Missouri Pacific has constructed and ar. ranged its hospital at Sedalia makes at least rule. When one exception to the the hospital was first —estabtish- ed at Washington, Mo., there was a hue and cry raised against the company be- cause it thereafter contracted with all its em- ployes to pay of their salary the sum of fifty cents a month for the hospita! fund, and this requirement began at Jay Gould and ended with the humblest section hand. Inasmuch as the Missouri employes number between 8,000 and 10,000, the fund rapidly becumea supporting fact, but in the meantime the hospital at Washington found itself cramped and unable to make suitable accom- modatious for the demauds made upon? it, Finally the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Rail- road became the property of the Missouri Pacific, and the former’s general «flic:s were removed to St. Louis. This removal vacated one of the bandsomest buildings ino Sedalis, located about one mile from the depot, in the . mic st of an immense lawn or park. The building was immediately set apart as a hospital! for the entire Gould system of roads, extending into Texas, Kaa- sas, Arkansas and Nebraska. and fitted up in the handsomest and completest manner. A semi-circulardrivein tne front of the hospital furnishes entrance and exit for the ambulance. The building is in the shape ofa double L,two stories high and adorned in the center opening by flower gardens avd fountains. The flowers were planted there by Mrs. Thos. J. Portis and Mrs. Dr. Jack-op, who bave exerted themselves to make improvements on the grounds. Every evening the con Valescents are wheeled out on the broad piazzas sur- rounding the flower gardens, and permitted to drink in the perfume of the conservatory and the healthful breezes that are wafted across the Pettis county prairies. The southern L of the building is divi by a wide hallway, on the right of which dre the offices of Dr. Jackson. the physician in charge, and Superintendent Weston, which open intoa clean and well-stocked dispen- sary, leading thence into the amputating- room. On the left of the hall are double par- lors for the reception of guests. The main building contains a large dininz-room and kitchen, sick wards and a smoking- room. The northern L is a continuation ofthe sick wards. The second floor ‘is de- yoted to wards and the private/apartments of the superintendent and attaches. The cots are of painted iron, furnished with easy springs and the whitest of bed-clothing, There are three pbysicians and a prescription clerk in regular attendance, besides the corps of nurses, waiters and cooks. Dr. Jackson is a tail, finely-formed, pleasant- faced gentleman, whose entrance into the various wards cause the dull eyes of the patients to become brighter. ‘*Here,’’ said Dr. Jackeon, “is a young man whose foot was amputated yesterday. How do you feel, myson? Hurts! Of course if. does, but the hurt is only making it well, Cheer up, my boy; you’ll be ali right in a few days,” and patting the pale face affectionately the Doctor moved from one cot to another explaining the condition of each patient and the character of treatment. There are now forty-five patients fn the bos- pital, but all seem to be delighted with their surroundings. The accommu«dations are suf- ficient for 150. Itis so arranged that when- ever an employe of the road or a passenger on one of its trains is injured or becomes sick, he is furnished free transportation for himself and family to the hospital at Sedulia, where the party are kept and cared for free of charge until pronounced ready for discharge. Heretofore the acci- dents havpening On the various lines of road through Missouri have thrown burdens upon the county authorities, forthe poor work- men could not emplov proper medical atten- tion or the necessary nursing, und the coose- quence was that counties were almost daily called upon to feot the bilis. Even hen the employes did not a4i- wavs. receive that experienced attention | which their sufferings demanded. Tbe pres- ‘ent mevement is not original, for the New | York Central has a magnificent hospital, and tbe Central Pacific bas at Ogden the finest institution of that sortin the United States, The inauguration of the Goud hospital was some Opposition, par- ticularly from the humbier worknien, who did not appear to wunder- stand or appreciate the necessity for such an institution, Since tae removal to Sedalia, al! the prejudice against it has disappeared, and the empioyes are commencipg to regard it as their personal property. To the energy, skill and faithfulness of Dr. Jackson and his corps of assistavts, and to the interest manifested by Mr. Thomas J. Porter, attorney of the road, is due the success gf the institution. attended with The Negro Gamblers.

At the present time M. de’ Lesseps is in Egypt, anxiously guarding the interests ‘of the Suez Canal. Heis. understood to have engaged the promise of Arabi Pasha that he will not be a party to its damage or destruc- tion, and has published on behalf of the Suez Canal Company a dec!aration made by a great number of Bedouin chiefs that they will. de- atroy the canal unless the British retire from the occupation of Egypt. The strength of this declaration lies'in the fact that other nations beside the British have an interest in the canal... Whilethat ofthe United Kine- dom is the greatest, theirsis not less real because inferior in magnitude. On the other hand, Engiand’s defense of the caval sgainst the Bedouins would be a service rendered to all the leading commercial countries, and it may be doubted whether the canal is really in danger of destruction with such a force at hand as that representing several nations in- terested in its safety, nowin Feyptand in Egyptian waters. M. de Lesseps’ anxiety for the safety of the canal, the greatest work of his life, is natural, but it may be questioned whether his essentiaily unfriendly attitude towards England is the right oneto take in order to insure it. Ferdinand de Lesseps was born in Ver- sailles in 1895, the son of Jean Baptiste Bar- thelemi, Baron de Lesseps. When twenty years old he was app»vinted attache to the French Consulate in Lisbon. He was after- wards engaged inthe Commertial Depart- ment ofthe Minister of Foreign Affairs. In 1828 he was attache to the Consul-General at Tuvis, and in 1831 was made Consul to Alex- andria. In his thirty-fifth year he was made Consul at Rotterdam, andin 1859 negotiated in behalf of "rench commerce with the Span- ish Governments The same vear he was transferred to the Consulate at Barceloaa. In 1844 he returned again to Alexandria, but Was speedily reappointea to Barcelona. French Minister at the court of Madrid in the last days of the reign of Louis Philippe, he returned to Paris after the revolution in which the monarch fel, and was sent by the Republican Government to represent France at Rome, then under a government headed by Merzzini. His com- mission to negotiate for the construction of the Suez Canal was given in 1854, but not un- til 1856 was the Compagnie Internationale formed forthis purpose. The years between then and 1864 were spent in co!lecting money for bis great projec! and in the overcoming of other Gifierities than the financial one; but inJuly, 1864, the final and favorable decision of Napoleon Ill, was gained and work on the canal was fairly begun. It was opened in 1869, the year witnessing the completion of perhaps the greatest piece of engineering of modern times and the highest triumph of the indefatigable man who had construcied it. M. ie Lesseps is a well preserved old man, good looking, and fascinating in discourse. He has visited the United Statea, andis per- sonaily acquainted with many of our public men. Fast Bicycling. From the London World. The past fortnight has been one of the greatest interest and excitement in bicycling circies, Perbaps the mostinteresting inci- dent has been the reappearance of the most popular rider ever known, the Hon. Ion Keith Falconer. This gentieman has been absent from Engiand some vears, studying Arabic and Persian in the East, and con- tracting feversin Egypt. During his absence various unsuccessful attempts have been made to surpass the brilliant two-mile ree- ord which he left behind him. Making a little pleasure trip, in the vilest weather, from Land’s End to John o’ Groat’s, a dis- tance of nearly 1,000 mries, by way of pre- jiminary breather, he competed first of al) in the five-miles championship, but had to be content with second place t> J. 8S. Whatton, the Oxford blue. On Saturday last he, how- ever, was enabled to bring bis wonderful stamina into use, and won the fifty-mile championship with tolerable ease after -ome magnificent racing. His time, 2.43:554, is far away the best for the distance, as it well may be. The other bicycling wonder, H. L. Cortis, has at length sueceeded in accom plish- ing, at the third attempt (ihe first cost him a broken arm), the feat of cove:ing twenty miles within the hour; but at the same time, in the same contest, another Oxford blue, W. K. Adam, placed the three-mile record to his credit, his time being 8:41165. These performances are wonderfully good, but the recent caim weather has been greatly ip favor of fast time. A Dozen Shot in His Lung. From the Lyons (N. Y.) Republican. The post-mortem examination of Edward Pulver, at Lyons, resulted in the finding of about a dozen shot in one of his lungs. The lung haa nearly wasted away, and ihe shot were gathered together in a small sac-like cavity. The discovery was surprising, inas- mucb as the shot could not have entered the lung through the throat, and being flattened Must have been shot into the body, a fact Which the deceased was reported never to have mentioned to his family and nearest friends. Tbe matter was the subject of sur- prise and conjecture to all the physicians present. It seems that the shots were fired into his body a number of years ago While be was discharging his duties as con- stable and was bringing the famuus trotting horse Crazy Jane away from horse thieves in the southern part ofthe S.ate. He wore a heavy overcoat atthe time, and afterward, telling afriend of his adventure, said that none of the shot entered bis body, as it had been suflicientty protected by his coat. In this itseems he was mistaken. The size of the shot spoken of by Pulver and the shop iund in the body correspond, and there is no scubt ne has for years carried in his lungs ‘Duc a dozen shot of which he had no tuowledge.

Secretary Chandler’s Trip on the Tallapoosa, The Star Route Speeches—The Strikes —The Transit ef Venus, Specia) Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, August 15. — Secretary Chandler’s trip on the Tallapoosa will doubt- less resultin the closing of one or more of the navy yards. The recent naval bill gave him authority to close one or more of them shoula he see fit, and the present trip is taken with that object largely. Commodore Walker, who acts in his absence, is a whole- souled New Englander, of magnificent phys- ique and broad, irtelligent views. He will fill the position ably and intelligently. Sec- retary Chandler, as has been already an- nounced, will visit all the naval stations and navy yards on the Atlantic coast, with the idea of making himself as familiar as possible with the details of the Navy Department. The Secretary is indicating a determination to make his administration of the af- fairs of the navy an intelligent one, and is thoroughly familiarizing himself with details, asfar as practicable. It is hoped that an intelligent. administratiop, coupled with the advantages gained by the recent bill, will improve the Navy, which everybody admits needs improviog. Itis the fashion- able thing in improving the Navy on paper to give most attention to ship-building, but those familiar with the personnel of the Navy agree that it offers a wide field to the reform- er. [tis over-cflicered. Many of the ojder officers were given their positions in recog- nition of gallantry, and richly deserved thei: Diaces? As they passed away, however, tneir places were taken by a bot of young snobs with neither brains or bravery, and the re- sult is that the Navy was rapidly becoming as much of a by-word regarding its younger officers amoug those who knew it well as it has been toucbing its§ vessels with the gen- eral public. The recently enacted law passed with the knowledge and consent of Secretary Chandler, however, wiii remedy this defect in a gredt degree. It reduces the number of Commodores, for in- stance, from 25 Lo 10% of Rear Admirals, from 12 to 6; of Captains, from 50 to 45; and of Commanders, from 90 to 85. THE STAR ROUTE SPEECHES. The speeches in the Star Rvute trial seem likely to occupy ali the remainder of this month at least, perhaps longer; and the juryman who can lisien to all that has been said by witnesses on each side and to three weeks of taik by the lawyers and still be able to make up his mind inteiligently on the subject must be aman of pretty clear head. The cases have .aiready taken much more time than anticipated by many, though the course of the defense in introducing 8o little testimony was something of asurprise. ltis intimated that the cost of these trials will run up to $100,000, or per. baps $150,000, and yet there is to-day really little hope that a verdict will be rendered by the jury. Attorney-General Brewster will be back from Long Branch in a dav or two, and will prepare then for his speech, which, it is ex- pected, be will make toward the ciose of the trial. Dorsey’s alleged letter to President Gar- field continues to be looked upon as very doubtful in character and woriny of litue thought or confidence. THE STRIKES. Reports from the coai regions show that the strikers, who have been out so long, are accomplishing no result, and most of them would be glad to return to work. The statisticians who have examined into the losses by the strike estimate that the losses of the workingmen by the strikes of this summer wili be from three to four miiliuns of doilars. Of course capitalists suffered by it, but its losses have beep more easily borne, and the pain occa- siuned by its jossis nothing compared with that of the laboring men themselves. WHITE HOUSE REPAIRS. The White House is to be treated to a coat of paint, ou side, during the absence of the President. It needs it, forit has not been painted since Grant ieft it, aod it is a rather sbabby-lovkipg affair at the best. There was «a hope that the biil authorizing the construction of anew mansion alongside of the presen’ one, which assed the Senate, would get through the the new building at once. But it was not taken upand a:l that can be done will be merely to repair the present one in the best way that can be at this time. I was taiking not long ago with a Senat r who was a member of the committee in charge of this bili in the Senate, “Tpere was a good deal of opposition to the bili,’? be explained, “*f.om Senator Sher- man and oihers.’’ “Why so.” Tasked, ‘“Doesn’t everybody recognize the nececsity for a new Presdentia! mansion ?’? ‘*Everybody does,’?’ he rejoined, “but everybody can’t agree as to the location for 99 “Didn’t Senator Snerman want it built alongside the old White House?’ *‘No. He waated it built on Columbia Heights, just north of the city and overlook- ing i.”? : “Why did he want to go away out there?” “The principal reason,’’ repled the Sena- tor, with a emile, ‘*seemed to be the fact tnat the Senator had some property on the Heights.’’ “You don’t say so.” @ “Yes, 1 do say so. Why, sir, be actually came to our cemmittee-room and lobbied to get the bill defeated so as to give his property a chance to be benefited by the location of the President’s mansion on the He ghts.”’ THE TRANSIT OF VENUS. The three parties to be sent vut to take ob- servations of the transit of Venus will soon’ be ready to stait, and sorhe of them will have none too much time, for the event occurs on December 6—about the time, by the way, that Congress reassembles, Tae observations of the last transit, like those of the last Con- gress, were not entirely satisfactory, and it is now believed by some of the scientists bere thatthis does not offer the best basis for measurement of the distauce tothesun. Be- sides the work of the three parties to be sent to Australia, South America and South Africa observations will be taken at a number of points in the United States, notonly by sci- entists of our own country, but by represent- atives of the German, Russian, British, French and Italian governments. BURGLARS effected an entrance to the cel- lar of the grocery store on the northeast cor- per of Fourteenth and Chouteau avenue last night. They were cutting a panel out of the door leading to the store-room when they heard the rap of a patrolman’s club and were frightened away. They did not get anything. ae ke’ ouge this session. Work could be begun on® BALLOONING PERILS. An Exciting Ascent in South America ~—In the La Plata. z From Advance Pnente, of Prot. R. G. Wells’ New OOK. In June, 1863, I made my third balloon ascent in South America, from Buenos Ayres, the capital of the Argentine Republic. Many gentlemen were very desirous of makimg an aerial trip across the Rio La Plata to Uruguay with me. I preferred, however, to go alone, as the river was thirty miles wide, and I wanted plenty of ballast instead of passengers. War was going on in Uruguay at that time. Fighting appeared to be as fashionable -in that part of the world as in Mexico, where, if they do not see an account ofa new revolution every week in their journals, they think it may have been left out by mistake of the editor or printer. As it was a national day an immense mul- titude had assembled to see the ball on as- cension. {[ felt sure that I wou!d be able to cross that wide and majestic river in one or two hours and land safely on the shore of an- other republic. I ascended to a great height, and could see both sides of the mighty river for more than one hundred miles up and down the vest stream. Many smal! boats were seen uponits smooth and glassy sur- face,and I could even hear the sound of the laboring oar, 80 motionless and silent was evervthing in that vast aerial ocean which surrounded me. It wasa glorious day, the sun brilliantly shining in almost a cloudless sky and pouring a flood of gor- geous splendor over the surrounding scene, as if proud ofthe realms he shone upon. While passing over the French mai: steamer in port they waved the tri-color, which I re- turned by saluting them with the star apangled banner and the flag of the Argen- tine Republic. When nearly across the river the wind suddenly ceased biowing, /eaving me suspended about two miles in height. Whenever my balloon lost its force I descena- ed near {ne water, and then would throw out ballast and rise again, continuingto do so untii all my baricst was gone. I then cut away one anchor, and later the other, unit! finally I had ontv my car left. The setting sun seemed to melt awav beyoud the distant horizoa, dissolving into a golden shower, and lighting up the western landscape With un- earthly splendor. Not desiring to remain inthe river, up-to my Waist in water, all night, and float out into the broad At'antic Ocean, Iiconcluded it was best to cut away my ear. Putting on my life-belt, and securing a large gas bag, which was fui! of air, to the ceir- cle or concentrating hoop to which my car was hung, L placed mvseif upon thecircle, which had a few cords tied across it, to form a seat, aud then cut cff every rope which held mv car, and lef: itin the river. My bai- joon ascended so very rapidiv that I was as- tonished to see the sun rising above the horizou in the west. It wasa glorious trans- figuration of nature’ [nthe west | beheld a mavnificent cloud, like an angel of light, or a beautiful bride, standing, as it were, before the majestic white altar of the snow-capped Andes, blushing at the departing kiss of the golden sun. From the celestial regions I witnessed the second setting of the sun, wolie its golden rays shiniag upon the balloon, which had been recentiy varnished, gave it the aypear- ance of an asteroid, to the peopie on the western shore of the La Plata, who were anxiously watching it. LIexpected to find a current of air in the higher regions which would take mv bailoon to Uruguay, or back to the Argentine Republic. 1 was about tbree miles in heizht, and a breeze from the ocean was carrying me slowly up the river. At the great height to which I attained, 1 soon began to feel the effects of the coid and rarified at- mosphere. [a a short time some cords, which bad been in the river, were covered with ice, The light-house and the gas-lamps of the city of Buenos Ayres appeared as if one of the bright consteliations of the heavens and the pianet Venus had fallen’ beneath me, and, jike a wandering spirit, I was gliding through the unfathumabie regions of space. After gazing for nearly an bour upon the wonderful and sublime scenes above, be- neath and around me, the bal oon commenced to descend on account of the coudensation of the gas in the coider atmosphere abuve. Now that the king of day had departed and gone to pay bis respecis to his Celestial Majcsty the Emveror of China and the Kings of India, the queen of night appeared before me to light up my splendid air-castle With ber silver beams and cheer me up OD Wy adventurous anti thrilling nocturnal voyage. Iu my opin- iou there is nothing more M«rveiwu-ly beau. tiful or surpassingly romantic and sublime than when in the silent hour of nigut we float along in tbe invisible and 1ll.witable ocean of air with perhaps 4 cloudiess heaven, while the siiver orbs of the firma ment or the bright ravs of the fuli moon light up the enchanting scene, and cities are passing beneath us Wh sé brilliant illu- minations appear lke nebulous groups sweeping before the telescope. Again | de- scended on the bosum of ibe mighty river, but did not find the water as coid a= 1 nad an- ticipated (altbougo it Was Winter in the southern hemisphere). It was much cvider 15,000 or 20,000 feet above the river than in ui. Afier remuiping in the water up to ms waist for sume time a light wind came up from the east which finally carried me back to the western shore from which I had started at Buenos Ayres. Before 1 cul. away my car I had tied a large Hag of both nations aud anew and heavy over- coul in the network above my head io keep them dry. [ had likewise ‘ied a small bus very stropg cord to toe circle, and fastened a lurge gas bug tothe other end of the cord, which Was about sixty feet in leogih. Ino order to keep the ballvon dry and constantly floating in the airI siid down therope and took my seat upon the flat gas bag, which made quite a comforiabie seat under the cir- cumstances. To mysurprise I svon feit my- seif pulled out of tne water by the balloon, which gained couside:abie ascensional force, by the wet cord passing rapidiv through my hands on my leaving the poop. Iwas taken up severai hundred feet at the same time, whiried round like «a top for some tiwe, caused by the co:d rapidly untwi-ting on ae- count of my weight and it being a new one. Luckily it did not break and give me a plunge bath of several bundred feet througao the air i nto the river. The wind increased in strength, and caused the balloon to act like a large sail, which towed me along quite rapid:y over the sur- face of the stieam, while I was seated upon the large, flat gas bag. Now and then the balloon would iift me a few feet above the river and Whirl me round a few times iu the airand then bring me down on my back among the waves, When it required consider- abie ene:gyto regain mv pusition upoo my air-inflaied seat. After being dragged by the balloon more than twenty wiles through the Hwater I was thrown upon the western shore. On account of not beingable to reach the yaive cord, which was fastened to the boop, six'y feet above my head, it was impos- sible to stop the balioon, and not wishing to be injured or killed by being dragged over fences in the dark, I Jet go of the rope. . Immediately the balioon passed out of sight, carrying off my overcoat and flags. Thus ended my thriiling aerial adventure with my splendid Seuth American balloon Washington, with which I had made several ascents in the southern hemisphere. It floated off towards the home of the condor in the lofty Andes, and I never heard of itagaiv. I went to the nearest farm-house, which belonged to Senor Justo, an Eoglishman who bad married 4 Spanish lady. I wasinvitedinto his house and in- troduced to his family, which consisted of his wife and several daughters. A dry suit of clothes in exchange for my wet one was viven me to put on untti mine could dry. Among the visitors who happened to be there when I arrived was tne editor of one of the best journals of Buenos Ayres,who wrote a full and highly interesting description of aerial ride over the Ri» . Plata. ‘The edi. tor, during the night, played a few games of chess with me. He stated in his jour- nal that what astonisbed bim the most was to see me play a good game of chess after having so recently pass through such a thrilling and to them, terrific experi- ence. Finding myself safe again upon terra firma, I looked upon it only as a little episode from my ordinary ascents. I had landed about twenty miles north of Buenos Ayrer, and returned on the railway train next day. In a few days the citizens cave me a grand benefit at the Opera-house, when r was called onto appear, aud alarge amount of money was received to pay for the loss of my magnificent balloon, Washington, BAYREUTH. The Home of Musical High Art and Bavarian Beer. Bayreuth Letter to New York Tribune. I have no time to get statistics, or I would ascertain just how much the sanitary condi- tion, or Want of sanitary protection, has to do with human life over here. It is beyond al! telling, the condition of these small German towns where, as at Coburg and Eisenacn, the sewerage flows through the open gutter. One crows sick at the thought of the filthiness of the lower classes, and the utter disregard of the higher classes of the health and comfort of the community. In vain have I searched during my recent visit through Germany for one fresh tacé among the working classes. Except from its stature, I often could not tell if the face of a ten-year-old child be- longed to achild ora woman. A girl of fif- teen looks haggard and yellow and frequent- ly thirty years of age. Ihave watched them for hours at a time at the fountain before my window, carrying away on their backs casks of water for family use—never a trig girl or atidy woman among them. How itis possi- ble for people made in the image of the Crea- tor to be so repulsively hideous as are the lower classes in Germany [ Cannot conceive. [t is high carnival at Bayreuth just now. The littl townis inaperfect flurry. For ibese two rooms, with four beds for four persons, we pai $2 50 a day each, and for ta- ble d’hote dinner also $1 each. These are very bigh prices for Bavaria. Our breakfast, a cup of coffee and roll,is served by our land- luly’s maid in our rooms at 15 cents apiece. Whatever else we get to eat in Bayreuth we pick up. We sigh often for a good Yankee caterer. The meal which is called dinner be- gins at the hotel at 12:30. It taxes half an. nour for tbe four hu.dred guests to get seated. Atl o’clock the soup ia brought on, twenty minutes laterthe fish is served, and so on, Until 8:30,when the cheese appears. rhe din is fearful. All the artists are at one ‘able, and there are distinguished people on every side. A part of the time Liszt takes iis dinner there. We would scorn such a dinner in America. The breid- cailed white is black: we are given half an hour in which to consume the one slices of -oup meat which forms a prominent course in the bill offare. Every bit of life has been coaxed out of it, and it looks thoroughly ‘shamed ofitseifas it bides away undera queer kind of sauce that comes wi:h it. Yes- terday we were twenty-two minutes getting ready fora course which consisted of one Ge: man doughnut each. A salt spoon never sas heardofin Bayreuth, and according to the continental fashion, kuives and furks are never changed between the courses. The German Knife goes into the mouth according to the custom of the country. It goes into the general salt dish and inte the pepper dish. I bave clashed kvives with a Grand Duke over the salt. When you arein Germany you must do as the Germans do or go hungry. This is the daily meal we cabled from America for, and we consider ourselves lucky to haveit. I do not complain of it. The hotel proprietor and the head-waiter and the porter are doing the be-t they can for us,and one would sav getting ready for an insane retreat at the same time, so distressed are their faces and so muddled their brains attimes. Itis a pitiful sight to see the head-waiter wring his bands when three pefsons approach him at once. Some- times, when we eatin the coffee-room, fifty people gather before the window to gaze in upon the strangers, and between the town and the theater, whicad is alittie distance out, the sidewalk is full of bareheaded women, knit- ting as they stand or walk, and workingmen with curiovity and wonder on their faces as the Fremden go by in opera costume in carriages. Your musical critic has written of the opera of ‘*Parsifal,’’ whose representation I see to- morrow for the first time. The first public performacce is Sunday, July 30, ancy goiog to the opera Sunday afternoon at 4 o’clock, riding across the city in full dress. It is a gay scene that the streets then present. From 4 to 6 the first act lasts, and the audience vetween the acis leaves the theater and strolls about the grounds or takes junecheon in the adjoining restaurant. The secund act lasts but little over an hour, and anotber wait of one hour, from 8 to 9, is spent in the restsurant, Where a tab:e d’hote din- ner is served, and a poor one it. is, too. It is something, however, to see there all the artists. My first look at Liszt was io this restaurant, Where be sat eating and drinking, surrounded by ladies, the Countess Sebleiuitz, Wagner’s great patron, at his right baud. -A man cannot look a gd, eating cuops in biack kid gloves, but the white head was Vely Striking in thai supper-room, and bis amisbility was very evident. But what man wou'id pot be bappy with five worship- ping Women about nim aad a good cutlet and giass of beer before him? Whea [ come into the presence of this man, as I hope to, in his on room, then perhaps [shall understand better ihat magnetism which makes ail women kiss bis band and toucn the hem of bis gurmeut with affection and reverence. I Was amused to see, standing pear Liszt in tne supper-room, a fuli-biooded negro in the uniform of a portier, speaking German, the only black man | bave ever seen in, Bavaria. Ai 10 o’clock the opera is over. Then where, think you, a throng of people go and di-cuss it? To the beer kelier where Waguer bim-elf used to drink beer. There we went after the private representation, at 11 o’clock at night, to talk it over with those who had been fortunate holders of patronats tickets. It was a curious minglivg of beer and poetry, ihe good-natured, dark-complexioned mad- chen, Who has quite a witch-like air, who serves the beer, has come to know no otber bame than “Kundry,’? and Wagner oimself shouid hear the shouts for **Kundry” ipat ring through the cellar afier the per- formance. Rather gingerly we American ladies made our way into this place, holding our skirts closely about us, ineimed to retreat when asked to take a seat on a beer cask. I did it, nowever, and on the next cask to me sat on the one side Prince Mecklenburg-Schwerin, and on the other side on another cask Frau- iein Brandt, one of the prime donne of the opera, Fraulein Hasselbach, who took the jeading parts in the Wagner representations ip London, and Josepb Rubenstein, and Nie- man aud Fucns and ascore of o:her artists. I left there at midniybt. Prince Lichtenstein was there, and a number of titled tadies sat cosily chatting atadealtable. Lively were the | scien as to the merits of the opera. Enthusiastic yvouths went tothe very corner and sat for a moment in the very spot where Wagoner had sat, with much the sensation, I fancy, of the traveling school-girl who bribes a guide to let her sit on a throne-chair for an instant.

DR. LAWS. The President of the State University Discourses on Things Gen- erally, or Y And Explains His Absence From the Se- dalia Reunion. Dr. 8. 8. Laws, President of the State Uni- versity at Columbia, Mo., has been visiting the city for several days. The Doctor is au active, pushing man, and during the days of his sojourn here his short, stout ficure and his bushy gray whiskers were constantly seen in public. A Post-DispaTcit reporter met him at the Southern yesterday, and, although Dr. Laws was in the midst of preparation for leaving tne citv, he expressed a willingness to talk about any subject upon which he could give information. ‘“‘About the standing of the State Univer- sity, doctor,’’ suggested the reporter. ‘“‘How does itrank with similar institutions in the country ?? ‘It is just as much thought of ard stands just as high as any eduvational institution in the country. It is doing first-class work in every way.”? , “You would not wish to rank it with Har- vard or Yale?” ‘‘T claim that we are doing just as good work’ In the academic department as either of them. No college in the United States can show a better facuity. Our chairs are filled with both linguists and scientis‘s, who rank as nigh as any scolars in the country. Nov, sir; we have nothing to fearin competition with any educational insvitution that may be named.” ‘‘Ts the attendance encouraging?” _“*Very much so. In the year just closed we had oniy 49 students less than in the pre- vious one, which latter shoyved the largest number of pupils ever registered since the university was f-unded. You probably know that the attendance at all schools fell off heavily last year, and L would not have been surprised to have. lost at least 100 pupils. I think we shall open avery successful year next month.” ‘‘Has the discussion excited by your Jate addiess worried you very much?” said the reporter. Dr. Laws smiled and said: ‘**No, not much. You seeitall arose out of a gross misinter- pretation, and the Post-DISPATCH became the victim of the mistake, .1 thought the pa- per was wot unfriendly to me, and conse- quentiy | huve explained the course in that way, My lastcard to the PostT-DISPATCH, and the way it was received, furnishes a pieasant ending to the discussion, and I am willing to let it rest there.” “You have no statement that I coulda make in relution to the controversy ?” ‘‘No, none whatever. ‘The address was | well received, and [ am satisfied with it. De- mands have come in to me for 70,000 copies of it, and they shal! go out, sir, like the leaves of Valiambrosa. They sball be sent wherever thev are wanted.’’ ‘**‘But you have no explanation to make?” ‘‘None is necessary. The remark that was made about the address most frequently was ihat it was extremely objective. . I was treat- ing acertain subject, and the address was fuli of it. IT made no attempt to parade my individual views, and the fact is that nobody cares about them in connection with the sub- ject. I was discussing the truth, and I will cling to the trutb, no matter what the result. This misinterpretation which I mentioned previousiy caused the discussion which arose. In the adaress, as it will be published now, there will be incorporated some explanatory maiter which, 1 thiuk, will.auswer all - pur- poses and wiilset meright onthe questions which came up.” ‘*But it would be interesting to get at your individual views onthe subject you dis- cussed??? “They are of no consequence whatever. Everyboay knows how I stand, individually, in these matters. To expiain my position would be to put myself iu the position of a When he bas to dothat he might as well keep bis peace. No, my views are too well known, and my position too well understood to require aby expression from me.” “TI: bad been hinted, Dector, that you would probabiy attend the ex-Confederate reunion at Sedalia.”’ “Yes,” said the Doctor, and laughed at the suygestion. “Why did you not go?” ‘“‘Well, firstly, because I had business to look afier. ‘Then, had no reason to go there; because [ never was ‘enrolled as a Confederate soldier. You perhaps have noticed the requirements ' for joining the society that meets at Sedalia. { do not possess them, and henvelI have neo business there.

He says that he sees with sorrow thatthe universi- iy of which he is the bead is so little known. In a newspaper account of the meeting at De Soto he saw a mention of Prof. Fickiin, of the faculty of the State University, who Was mentioned as attached to “Colum- bia University,” when there is really no such jostitution. Dr. Laws also thinks that any pewspaper which would make an ‘ ‘incidental hobby” of education would strike a lead whica would pay very well. He thinks it a subject which is mvure generally interesting than any other. | ales, sows Chaplain, for THERE is no use in talking, Dr. Benson’s Celery and Chamomile Pills will cure nervous- ness in its worst forms, and produce a charm. ing happy state inatroubied mind and per- manently build up the general system.

About 8o0’clock this morning an Lialian Alnaschir might haye been seen standing upon the corner of Sixth and Pine streets, upon his head a tray, upon the tray a cnoice selection of graven images, the invoice in- cluding a job lot of plaster gods and god- desees, several marble dust squirrels anda Parian saint or two to help out the average. He, the vendor that is, was out forthe day. The world was before him whereto roam, and doubtless he wouid have caroled his blithe lay had he happened to have such a thing about him. Im the midst of life, however, we are cut down, aa it were, and this simple tale goes to show that punishment follows unerringly the breach of natural law. A base is a harmless thisg and a center of gravity is a harmless thing as long as_ prop- erly managed, but get your base from around yourcenter of gravity and where are you? There was a fallin images—it was a cvid day for Italy. Where before had been nothing gut joy and serenity and happy confidence in the future now sat carking care amid the dislocated cherubim like Marius amid the ruins of Carthege, Mo. The scene might have been taken bodily out of “Voipey’s Ruins,’’ so full of de-olation was it.. The child of sunny Italy gazed sadly upon the wreck;; in the low, musical accent» of his melodious tongue he called upon the powers apove to wreck, slay, ruin and destroy the whole habitable = globe. He requested as a special favor that he bimself might be _ reserved fora more lurid and gaudy inferno than anybody else, aod he added a posiscript to the effect that he therein and thereby and toenceforward dissolved the partnership heretofore existing between him and Provi- dence, and that he would carry on the busi- ness at the old stand hereafter by himself. A ring of bystanders gathered around, and the exile eved them a moment before making an inventory of his loss. He sat like Dr. Senlie- mann in Troy, surrounded by a choice as- sortment of torsos, loose legs, stray heads, fragments of shouiders and misceilaneuvus sections of the human form divine in plaster. He shed tears as he tried to make St. Pat- rick’s crozier fit into the socket of an anony- mous shepherds leg. Nothing would fity It wasasort ofa fifteen-puzzie of hu manity.

A Furniture Firm’s Settlement Contested. _.-—rc i'r CU Re Defeat of a Test Proceeding to Crush the Vornbrock Furniture Co. A case of some interest to creditors was before a jury in Justice Young’s court yes‘er- terday afternoon. John H. Vornbrocs, the furniture manufacturer, afew months since found that a crisis was approaching in his business. He had met with several reverse- and not the least was the loss of timber by the flood. His banker found out the way things were going, and one morning Vorn- brack was sent for to krow what he pro posed to do about some checks which fad just comé in for a _ few oundred dollars, to meet which there were no available funds. The eashicr said that they would be returned at a certain hour if the matter was not arranged. It was sug gested that Vornbrock should give a deed of trust on his factory. He consuited bis attor- ney, & J. White, who advised bim to cal! his creditors together at once aad state his position frankly. Vornbrock adopted that course, and Mr. White in his behalf, represented that anythiog would be done for the protection of all the credito:-« tbat might be deemed advisable. Vornbroc« offered to turn everything over tuo them by avsignment under the State law or to con- t nue the businessif the creditors would grant bim an extension. A committee was appointed to consult and report. At’ that time the Post—-DISPATCH was furnishing a startling serial devoied to estate-eating, illu-trating for the bevetit of creditors the subiime pro- cess of Winding up corporations, banks and insuranée companies, wherein the eutire salvage passed into the pockets of referees,as- sicnees,attorneys and court officers,leaving the creditors high avd dry upon the rocks. Such was the effect upon business men that Vorn- brock’s creditors determined to steer clear ot the assignment process under the State law, and the jarger creditors proposed that he should in time work out the payment of his debis dollar for doliar under an arrangement piacing. the business and the factory inthe hands of a company to be organized with Vornbrock as president. The creditors agreed to act as. officers of the com- pany, giving their time and attention to the supervision of the business gratuitonsty. Notes were to be executed for payment in periodical installments, and the security would be the deed of Vorn- brock tothe company. Vornbrock was to give his personal attention to the business, drawing simply aliving salary for hia ser- vices. He cheerfully accepted the proposi- tion and the company system wus adopted. Conrades & Logeman, the heaviest creditor putting up_—_—ithe tue necessary half-paid capital, rangement with the approving signatures of creditors representing $78,000 of a total in- debtedness of $80,000. Of the $2,000 dissen- tients the Mitchei! Furniture Company figured for some few hundreds,ind suits were brought against.Vornbrock anu judgment obtained in respect of the diss®nting creditors’ claims, The case yesterday was in the nature of a test garnishment proceeding against Vornbrock, alleging fraud iv the transfer of his property. : CG. Marshall represented the Mitchell Furniture Company and EK. J. White{Mr. Vornbrock. The creditors who have stood by Vornbrock in his troubles ex- pecting to pull him through under the com- pany arrangement and at the same time save themselves from loss were ovresent at the trial and manifested much in- terest in the case. George W. Lubke was also present in the interest of the creditors, supporting Vornbrock.’ Severai Witnesses Were examined to shed full light on the arrangement made by the creditors, andthe jury was #0 gsatistied that there Wis LO shadow of fraud in the transfer to the company that % verdict in favor of the garnishee, the de- fendant, Was returned in a Very few minutes. The dissen'ing creditors, however, say that they will appeal the case to the court of last resort.
