It’s a bad hole, is hurt- ing pool selling, aud itought to he closed up.” Another visit made to the ° **KID’s CAMP” shortly before noon, showed that there were about fifty would-be gamblers, most of them beardiess boys. The principal thing sold was combinations. This is a game in which the player endeavors to have the winning horse or club in the designated races or games. Each man selects his favorites, and of course the chances against Wiuniug are enormous. The per- centage Is greater than Keno, the tickets are just as cheap, and, of course, the play catches the sume poor young men and boys that were robbed by the old game of keno; The board showed that 540 TICKETS HAD BEEN SOLD in the race combination, which represents so much noney taken from people who cannot afford to louse a ceut. Officer Flynn,|the policeman on the beat, was met and usked about the place and the fact that pools were openly sold to minors, “We cannot do anything abont it,” he said. “As soon a8 | make an appearance, all the boys skip out. The only way to make a case is for some officer to go in there ‘in citizen’s ‘clothes aud cateh them in the act.” ‘But they do sell to boys,” “Well, they tei me they do not. There are a lot of big feilows around there, however, and the boys club together and send in their money. I know they do that. Did you hear about the woman that was around there raising cain the ther day?’ : “Yes. Who was she?” “Her name was Mrs. Fitzgerald.

The police should have closed it up long ago.” There is only one other cheap pool room in St. uis at present. The “Kids Camp” fs the worst, hecause it sells its tickets as low as_two for a eerie: and nothing higher than a twenty-five t ticket is sola.

On one of them tickets sell for twenty-five cents, and on Other the turiff is half a_ dollar. en the reporter Sraneer in there, about fifteen minutes before nvon, the room was nearly empty. é€commented on this fact to an acquaintance whom he knew there, and the latter smiled and said: “Waitawhile. This is not the busy time.” “When does the rush come?” Between 12 o’clock noon andip.m. Ina few ee will see the place full. Wait until clerks and salesmen in all the Fourth and Fifth street and Washington avenue stores et their dinner hour, and then vou’)! see business one. Why, they come here in hundreds. EVEN THE LARGE-SIZED CASH-BOYS are patrons, and they all back their judgment on the 25-cent board.” The reporter took the advice and waited. At ten minutes past noon the attendance began to thieken. At 12:30 p.-m.° young fellows were crowding and elbowing each other to get ont the tickets. The cent plan had thecall. There were young then from 16 years upwards, all coming as fast as the mon could be taken. Some bought a single ticket, ahd others took two. One young fellow, who tends the hosiery counter in a Well-known Fourth street house, bought six tiekets, and, as he called for them and handed up hie $1 50, an envious acquaintance re- markea to his chum: “Jack hit it ‘yester- any. He is playing her heavy to-day.’ Jack’s salary is but $9 per week, yet he plays all the time, and there is no doubt but that niost of his @aruings gointo Mr. Baldwin’s box and never leave it. it would pay many a-Fourth-street or Wasbington-avenue merchant to drop tp to Baldwin's at the hour mentioned. here be. would find several of his cierks and sal@amen whom he thinks are at dinner, busily engaged in backing their luck on the Saratoga and Brighton Beach races. He would discover that several of his employes could give him points on horse-racing and } ool-selling; and he would also, perhaps, be abie to foresee SOME POSSIBLE CASE OF STEALING, which one or the oilier of his clerks willbe forced to commit, to keepup the piay at Baldwin’s. The fifty-cent board was also well pat- ronized, but not so much by the clerks. except thease who had been playing in luck. At the sane Lin’e ¢heap Auction pools were also sold, but the highest prices paid for first choice while the reporter was ‘there, was $5. In this way even this branch of the business 1s browght within the reach of the poorer people. On-tae combination board Baldwin sells on an uverage 1,800$1ICKETS A DAY, and on this basis a calculation of the number of players can be easily made. Another feature vf this place is the high . per cent which ihe Pouse takes out of its combinations. The es- ed “rake-off,”’ to use the parjauce.of aneth- er , ts 10 per cent. in propery conducted houses, all over the country, Only 5 per cent is taken, but Baldwin has arbitrarily run up the price, and takes out this enormous per cent every day without viushing. At the “kids’ camp” the nominal take-off is also TEN PER CENT, but the belief among sporting men is that itis I tell you that placeis a dis-]. anything that the house may weed. Theseare the ouly cheap pool-rooms now running. At Ar- thur’s room, on Sixth street, between Pine and Chestnut,.a 25-cent board was also started, but Mr. Lyons, whose first name, Arthur, gives the room its name, is now understood to be “broke,” and the placeis not doing any business. Beside the’ KidssCamp” and Baldwin’s, the only other pool room now running i@St. Louis is kept by Dick Roche. In this, however, there is no cheap board. Mr. Roche is very strict in his ar- rangements. He not only refuses to seli to minors,’ | put he will not aliow them to hang | around the place at all. One of the reasons why these twenty-five cent and iwo for twenty-five cents houses were staried was to catch the juvenile patronage, which Dick Roche would not touch. Baldwin and Barrett get the boys and poor men who can only afford to play a trifle, and to whom the loss of a dollar means More than would the loss of $50 to the men who piay at Roche’s.” COL. CAMPBELL, Chief of Police, was asked this morning if there was any law under which these twenty-five cent povl-rooms could be prusecuted, and said: “No. the bill introduced in the Legislature did not pass | and Ldon’t know of any way of reaching these places now.” “What do you think of such places as the Pine street pool-room?”’ “Well, my sentiments on _ pool-rooms generally are expressed in my letter to Senator Jas. O’Brien, the author of the pool- room bill. He wrote me and in response I wrote the following: ‘I can not too heartily approve of the measure and am convinced that the morals of the community at large, and more especially the younger portion thereof, wilt be benefited thereby. These dens, gotten up by_ professional gamblers for tue purpose of roping in | and fleecing the anwar, should be abol- ished at all hazards. hey are a standing threat to ali honest and law-abiding citizens, aid if tolerated, wili eventually engulf not only our youth inacommon vortex of crime, but drag in also those weak-minded beads of families who are always on the lookout to better their financial condition by such means. The proprietors of these places are fattening upon the hard-exrned wages of aclass who can ill afford to spare a dol- lar from thelr limued means. Aud who shall wonder when the legitimate eari- ings of those poor dupes are swailowed up in the insatiage maw of these land sharks thai the tempter should set in and urge their victims to pilfer from their employers’ store to carry on the game, whilst finally detection, disgrace and igno- minious death stares them in the face. I believe that every legitimate means shouid be taken to suppress this yillainous business, and to that end engage to give my individual support to any law passed for that purpose.’ ” Although written several months ago the senti- ments @ the chief seem to specially apply to these cheap dens which, on account of the small size of the bets, are especially attractive to clerks and young men of small means. THE PRESIDENT’S TRIP. His Popular Reception at Louisville Mark- edly Devoid of Entnusiasm. F By Telegrapn to the Post-Dispatch. NEw YorRK, August 2.—A special to the Times from Louisville says the statement in the Eastern papers that President Arthur’s trip through Vir- ginia and to Kentucky was in the interest of bis nomination next year, has caused considerable gossip here to-day. Contrasted with the fact that his popular reception was markedly devoid of enthusiasm, he has received attention from the most prominent men in the State and city, and Democrats and ex-Confederates were about him all the time. His progress through the city to-day was exceedingly quiet. When Grant and Hayes visited Louisville a few years ago each was cheéred to the echo, and the people received them with every evidence of cordiality. To-day, after 7 getting into ms carriage, the President was cheered, and stood up to bow his thanks for a short distance. The remaining mile and a half of the route ‘was mostly lacking in demonstration and the n_ the su t of @& the politicians er Evans, who was appointed f le exerted nis influence exclusively for the Stalwart faction in Kentucky, and the recent consolidation of districts has given rise to hot quarrels in Re- publican ranks.

SALEM, Inv.. August 2—On board the Presid- ent’s train, 9:40 a. m.: A special containing President Arthur and his party bound éut of the Louisville, New Aibany and Chicago Depot, at Louisville, was half an hour late, and, after crossing the bridge which spans the Ohio River at Jeffersonville, was soon “speeding along at quick pace under the foot-hills of South- ern Indiana. The leave-taking which the Presi- dent had of Louisville was in a measure informal, aithough quite a great concourse had congregated about the re to give him an early morning send-off, and the gaily uniformed band of the Louisville Legion was on hand to discourse ‘Hail to the Chief’ as the Presidential party entered the depot. This musical attachment will accompany the President to Chicago. The special trgin is decked out in_ royal fashion, the engine is beflagged, ~ and beribboned almost beyoud its originalisemblance. The decorations extend to three splendid coaches and a dining car,which make up the train. Under the circumstances there could be no mistaking the identity of the specialto the great crowds which collected at all way stations te witness its flying passage. The party on board was made up aS follows: President Arthur, Secretaries Lin- colin, Gresham and Folger, Senator Bayard, Sena- tor Beck, of Kentucky and representatives of the press. General Sheridan and party retarned to OUbicago list night. The transit of tae speciai had evidently been well advertised, as was shown by the great crowds along the entire route. Every crossing had its quota of spectators. and the rail fences on the outskirts of some of the villages in the lower portion of the State were liberally decorated with natives. Owing to the omg * in starting, no stop was made after leaving New Albany until Salem was reached, and the train peoees through all the intervening villages ata ying rush. No place appeared so modest that it failed to poss@ss a piece of ordnance and the ac- companying cheering of assembled crowas was equal to the detonation of the artillery. The President, throughout the early portion of the run, svught seclusion in his coach, and failed to make his appearance on the platform. Accom- panying calis were made for the President at nearly all the Indiana stations. A disposition was evinced by the crowds for a look at Secretary Grestam, and there were repeated and hearty calls for that gentleman. It had been the original intention to make ashori stay at all the leading Stations, but owing to the delay of getting off at Louisville, and the desire to reach Chicago on time, the plan was abandoned. The special has exciusive right of wav, other trains being side-tracked to aWait its coming. The prospect now is that Chi- cayo will be reached at 7 o’ciock this evening, schedule time. It is now contemplated thata stay of half an hour will be made at Monon, where special trains from Indianapolis, Michigan City, and other nortbero Indiana cities, will bring crowds to view the Presidential party. A NEW CABLE COMPANY. It Promises Largely Reduced Rates and More Certain Commanication, By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, August 2.—Alderman Hadley of London, president of the New American, British andganadian Cable Company, sailed for England yesterday on the steamship Gallia. His mission to this country, which was to @#cure telegraphic connection through the United States and Can- ada, independent of the old companies, he says has been successful. The American, British and Canadian Cable Company was organized to trans- mit cablegrams at cheayer rates and with more dispatch than at present. Alderman Hadley, who was seen by a Worid reporter on the Gallia, yes- terday, rejoiced over the success of. his scheme. “The new company,” he said “has been organized in opposition to existing organizations. We shall Give the public, despite the oppowition of a cer- tain syndicate, more rapid and more certain com- munication with Europe at largely reduced rates. Atl contracts have been completed, which insure for ten years atleast cheaper facilities to people who wish to use the cable. We intend, upon my return to England, to mike | imine- diate arrangements fur the full cgmpletion of the entire system, and shall proceed by laying a cable from Penzance to Sable Island, and from that point to Halifax. At tne latter place we shall be connected with the entire telegraphic system of the Dominion of Canada, and by a favorabie arrangement just completed with the American Postal Telegraph Company we shail have direey communication throughout the United States. Our cable will be abvut 2,700 MILES LONG, and more direct thin any other now existing. Eventually the company will have acable running to New York. The capital stock is $1,500,000, and the greatest share of it is al- ready subserived. The new cable will be a few hundred miles shorter than the others, but it is our system of operation that will enable us to transinit messages rapidly and at very cheap rates. it would uot be advisable to state, a” wh present, what our system is. This much will say, however, it is eutirely new, it guarantees ab- solute cheapness, rapidity and certainty, and these fill all the requirements of the public. Iam not at liberty to state the nature of our contract with the American Postal Teiegraph Company, ex- | eentthatitis an alliance that will benefit the puolic and that pooling witiwother companies is prohib- ited for years. 1 expect that we shall bein oper- ation within six months.” SIDE BY SIDE. The Victims of the Voullaire Tragedy at the Undertaker’s. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New York, August 2.—The victims of the ter- rible tragedy which occurred on Monday last, at No. 211 West Twenty-second street, lay side by side yesterday at Clark’s undertaking establish- ment, at-_No. 209 West Twenty-third street. An immense throng of curious people besieged the doors all day, anxious to get a sight at the re- mains of the late Mrs. Shephard, alias. Kelley or Vouilaire, and her reputed husbana, Mr. Horace B. Shephard. Attimes the crowd was so great that the undertaker was compelled to keep per- sons from jostling and crushing one another. The body of Mrs. eee lay packed in an ice-case. Close by lay, as ifin quiet slumber, the body of young Shephard, HIS REMAINS WERE DRESSED in a plain black suitand the arms were folded acefully on the breast About twenty minutes o 4 o’elock the body was placed in a vehicle and rapidly driven to the New Haven steamer pier, Peck slip, where a ste:mer which had Been delayed some time by its non-arrival was in wait- ing for it.

It is expected that the funeral will take place to-day. It is intended to have services conducted by Mr. Hart, after which the remains wit! be interred Mm the family burying Genes. Mrs. Shephard’s body it is intended to leave in charge of the un- dertaker until the arrival of her mother. It is ex- pecied that she will reach the cit, to-morrow, and if so the funeral services will probably be held on that or the following day.

By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch, SAVANNAH, August 2.—Tile excitement over ku-klux outrages around Maysville,Banks county, has been intensified during thie past few days by additional nocturnal attacks on the colored peo- ple. The latter are now so thoroughly terrified that several of them have abandoned their homes and crops for fear of being killed and have taken inha itants, who do not sympathize with the mid- night lawiessness of the negro-baters. Since the account published in the Herald of Saturday, Oad Bush, an juoffensive colored man, was iven seventy-five lashes on his bare back and eft for dead in the. woods. Next morning he crawled to the settlement and toid his story. He will recover. Two nights ago a peddler met a band of twenty mounted AND MASKED MEN, all heavily armed, riding aiviig the road. He prudently forbore asking any questions and was not molested, save that one of the horsemen play- fully tapped his gun and told him he had better keep his mouth shut. Next morning it was learned that during the night the band bad. visit- éd the planiations of Menard Sauuders and James Holland, wuere they bruke down the doofs of cabins, and after maitreating Berry Saunders shot him in the leg,“to give him some- thing to blabber for.” After leaving Saun- ders’ plantation they employed «a few hours in flogging Alexander Brooks, Warren Bryson, Glenn Stout and six other coiored-men. ONE COLORED MAN, who saw them re escaped to the woods, which so exasperated his persecutors that they burned his cabin. All the farmers here express their ablorrence at the outrage, and a vigilance committee is organizing to hunt down the band, who are believed to consist of twenty-five or thirty escaped convicts and desperadocs, living in caves On the mountains. This county is notorti- ous a8 a moonshining region, and several officers = lost their lives while in discharge of their uty. CYRUS W. FIELD. He Turns Up as the Mark Tapley of the Western Union Telegraph Company. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New YORK, August 2.—Mr. Cyrus W. Field turns up as the Mark Tapley of the Western Union Telegraph Company. Being asked yester- day if the directors had taken any action relative to the strike at their meeting, the jolly millionaire replied wi h some siow of astonishment, ‘We are forgetting that such a thing as a etrike ever occurred.” If the public coukl onty be made to forget that there was once such a thing’as a tele- graph system that eceasionally beat the. mails, Lama did-its best to keep even with the district messenger boys, all would be well, But with delays of three or foir hours between the princt- or points in the United States, messages badly otched and mangled and branch offices closed in the city, the long suffering public has not forgot- ten that there has been a strike, however com fortable Mr. Field may mage himself, MODERN MIRACLES, A Catholic Priest Vouches for Three Mirac- ulous Cures.

I never even asked himfor the appointment of Mattpews, nor aid | know that Matthews was to he ap- pointed until after his rejection-by the Senate under Hayes.” An interview with Mr. George Jones, of the New York Times, is also published, in which Jones pronounces untrue the Dorsey statemvtnt, that he had ever asked for, or sought, or accepted aid trom from the National Commit. tee, or any one.

They,denounce the prop- osition of the Republican party that the peo- le should be taxed to raise a surplus und forthe Federal Government to distribute among the States, and that the existing surplus fund in the treasury should be applied to the pay- ment.of the public debt. They insist on reserving the public lands for actual settlers; not another acre for corporations. They further declared that the administration of Gov. Pattison has amply vindicated the pledges of reform upon which it was elected, ana that the economies en- forced by the Democratic House of Representa- tives in the departments of the State Govern- which have passed under Democratic coptrol, and the abolition of — useless ces that were a burden upon the people, give assurance that the extension of that control to other departments of the State Government will accompanied by real reforms upon the extrav- agance and irregularity which bave prevailed under Republican administration, and that the tax laws of the State should be revised and so changed ag to make them more equal and more just, and bear equally on all classes of prop- erty. lt was then resolved that the rues of the be sO amended as to fix the time of the annual meeting of the State Commitee at 4 p- m. of Wednesday after the third Monday in Jan- weeye instead of the third Monday as now pro- v A Wicked Negro.

The Murder of Phillips—Desperate Deed of a Chicken-Thief— Mrs. Houlihan’s Hen the Cause—Arrest of a Man on Suspicion—He is Released. About 9 o’clock last night John Phillips. a col- oret! hostler in the employ of Dr. W, T. Gregory. at No. 3416 Morgan street, was stabbed in the forehead and aimost instantly killed at the corner of Morgan street and Channing avenue by a white man, who made an easy escape. The facts of the killing are these: Up to a week ago a family named Houlihantlived in a small frame house next door, and on moving away Phillips, who was weli liked through the neighborhood, agreed to take charge of the chickens, and was apg ay a small brown hen in payment. He ful- lled his’part of the contract for Mrs. Houlihan, and was given a small hen which nested ina clump of weeds on the adjoining premises. Last night Phillips was at work in the stable when his attention was attracted to the lot by the cackling ofthe hen. He called another colored man hained Jerry White, and the two repaired to the tot, where they fottnd a white man with the hen under his arm ana a boy at his side. Phillips asked the man why he had taken the chicken, and what he proposed to do with it. The man said that when the Houlihan family was moving he did some work for them and was promised the henin payment, and he was going to take it to his house.on Seventh street. Philiips rotested, but the mafi continued to move east on organ street. Phillips took two pieces of mac- adani fromthe street and threw one of them at the man. He missed the mark and threw a second stone, striking him on the side. White stood off a short distance and took no part in the fight. The man with the chicken then turned and was rapidly closing in on Phillips, who stooped to pick up another missile, but before he rose into ah upright position again A KNIFE-BLADE GLEAMED IN THE GASLIGHT and the white man plunged it into Phillips’ head. The negro staggered back to the stone covering over the inlet on the corner and satdown. A stream of blood flowed from a small wound in his foreheait; just over the right eye. White ran up to him and asked himif he was badly hurt. The wounded man replied that he Was Cu; and asked White to go into the shed with him. At the hydrant in the rear of No. 3410 Morgan street he was bathing his head when Dr. Gregory discovered hin. He took Phillips into the house and at once found that the wound was very serious. A small open- ing in the flesh revealed A SEPARATION OF THE SKULL, showing where the blade was encased inthe man’s brain. in the excitement attending the as sault White returned to look after Phillips. John Heckwith, however, gave chase apd caught hold of the eseaping chicken thief, but fvolislily re- leased his hola and permitted him to escape. Phillips’ death resulted a few minutes after en- tering the. nouse, and the body was removed tothe Morgue atonce. The deceased was from Lex- ington, Ky., and enjoyed a good reputation in the neighborhood. Special Officers Drake and Barnétt were de- tailed specially upon the case. From Jerry White, @ negro, they obtained a meager descrip- tion of the rourderer. apd on it atl o’clock went to 3400 Morgan street and arrested ROGER WOOD, awell known political character, and for the greater part of the past ten years a Deputy Con- stable. The prisoner was taken to the Third District Police Station and ‘locked = up. After an examination of Wood this morning, it Was esiablished beyond any question that he had nothing todo with the case whatever. he does not answer the description given by the eye-wit- ness to the inurder in any particular, and, they both stated when he was taken before them that they had never seen him before. Wood was set at liberty at il o’clock, after having been tiearcer- ated since la.m. He naturaliy expressed his in- dignation that he should have been made the victim of such stupidity upon the part of officer Drake, who, he says, met him sev- cral tines during the evening, and had'no reason to postpone his arrest until one o'clock in the ae Wood has many friends who will be glad to learn that he is in no way connected with the crime. AT AN FARLY HOUR THIS MORNING the police made an arrest which was kept quiet until this afternoon. There were but poor grounds on which to suspect Roger Woods of the murder and the efforts to cage the right man did not end at his arrest. JOHN LAHEY, A TEAMSTER, living near Twentieth and Division streets, was arrested before 5 o’elock this morning in his own yard and taken to the Third District Station with his §&year-old son, He was seen dur- ing his confinemegt and asked how he proposed to estabiish his innocence. “I don’t know how I will,” said he, ‘but I don’t think much harm ean come to al innocent § man. Before’ the family was up this .morning I found three policemen waiting for me in the yard. I was taken tu the station house and locked up with my little boy. I‘didad’t know untila few min- utes ago What I was wanted for. The policemen were waiting for me apparently this morning. and said that I would not be wanted very long. They asked me if I had a boy, and [told them I had a son pained Johnnie. At thelr request I called him and took him with me. we have been locked up ever since, I was told that I was wanted for killing a necro last night. Well, all I have to say is, that [I didn't Kill apy negro. I got home at 7 o’ctock, and sat in the yard until 8 o’clock, rocking the taby. I then went toclean the mules, after talking awhile to a neighbor named Kelly. It struck 9 o’clock while I wasinthe stable and at about half past 9 o’clock I got through and went to bed and staved there until this morning when I was arrested.” . JOHNNY LAHEY, the boy who was supposed to be the companion of last night’s murderer, was seen to-day hefore he had spoken to his father. He is only & years old and was in confine- ment several hours Before he was interviewed. This and the further fact that he was locked up up before he had had breakfast accounted for the difficulty with which the reporter § crew him off from a pan of bread and sausage which the turnkey had given him. When asked where he was last night he said: * was at home in bed. I stayed with papa while 1 he was cleaning the mules until 9 o’clock and then I went to bed, and this morning when [ woke up the policeman took us to the police station.” Jerry White and John Heeckwood, who says his name is Hegwood, the two colored men who accompanied Phillips on his fatal errand last nicht have been held by the police for safe- keeping. This morning Lahey was exhibited to the two eye-withesses of the tragedy separately. When White was returned to his eell he saia: “That’s the man, I’m sure, and that’s the boy. too. The man was dressed differentiy but I know him, and that’s the boy, too.” On belug cross-examined by the reporter White, who is not over 20 years of age. could not give an accurate description of anthing he had seen during the experiences of the past twenty-four heurs. Jobn Hedgewood, who used to dtive for Dr. Cabanne, was also with Phillips. When #e was shown Lahey by the police to-day he said without hesitation, ' “THAT’S NOT THE MAN. Isawthe man that killed Phillips last night. When he stabbed him 1 separated them myself, and he started east on “Morgnn | street with the chicken.

The fellow I took the chicken fron last night had a light mustache and this man has a sinbby, black beard all over his face.

Well, I found it next to"an impossjpility to find out who owned these buckets, so that I could warn them not to put water inthem. An idea struck me, however, and pow I know who owns every bucket in that locality. I iastructed the driver to load every pue«et with water init on the wagon and drive otf. Well, they did, but before he got out of the alley there was an army of women after him, each claiming a bucket. They can’t fool me any longer. I know every bucket in the alley and who owns them.

By Telegraph to the Post-Disprtch. New Yoru, Atgust 2.—The officials of the Western Union Tglegraph Company ciaimed yesterday that business was, except at a very few points, all up, and that the amount of work done was almost as much as usual. Thé.operators said that yesterday was a very bad day for the com- pany, and that the telegraph hooks throughout the country were crowded with dispatches. The American Rapid is still doing an unusual amount of business. The operators are satisfied in this company, as from yesterday they began to draw increased pay. They are ail heartily in accord with the Western Union operators on strike and say they will furnish money as inuch as possible to keep the strike going. Yesterday was a day of rumors. Ip the afternoon operators along tbe street sald that forty-seven hands had left the -instruments, up-stairs and joined the strike. The reas6n given for that the operators had remained until pay day and to draw the bonus of $20, which was given Ly Soap company to every operator who remained at bis post uptil the end of July. The exact number who quitted the desks cannot be ascertained.as operators upstgirs say they don’t know and officials say that Mis morping seven hands weregabsent, and of this pumber four returned by noon time and went to work. The -operator of the Brotherhood who makes his headquarters in the operating room yesterday furnished a report of the condition of affairs in the office and said that the .company was completely embarrassed, Special press dispatenes were said to be mixed aud almost un- intelligible. “Ove man, Guyon, who returned to work yesterday, went out this morning.” The re- port says, “Boston business delayed four hours and twelve minutes. Business while awaiting tcansiwission is kept on vacant desk. All Western birsiness badly mixed; so badly, in fact, that it 18 difficult to teli where the delay fs.” The operator on the Detroit wire sent a message timed 4:12, and the message directly underneath it timed 2:17, and the one below 2:06. ST. LOUIS BUSINESS has been piling up all the moruing, but getting rid of a good dea! of it now, but Cannot say how. Chicago pretty well up but still sadly be- hind. Délay on Morse wires ranges from one and a quarter hours to five anda half hours. AtzZp. in. business was sent by Wheatstone instruments, only 15 minutes’ delay. At 3:30 the delay was from 7 to 20 minutes. At 4:18 messages timed 10:30 u. m. Were forwarded, and at 4:25 messages timed 10:26a.m. were handled. . This shows how badly business is mixed up. When the hooks begin to ook full on heavy wires the messages are taken duwt avd placed on desks, Which-makes every- thing look all clear to strangers. Balumore and Washington have apparently noth- ing to-day, business is very light. Philadetpbia clear allthe afternoon. Delay on VCineinnatl’s wires, at times, three hours. On Pittsburg the delay Wes seldum more than three hours and a half; messages sent out at 4:30 timed 2:17, Alba- ny business two and a quurter hours behind, Eastern and Erie wires working badly. Syracuse three bours behind. Buffalo three bours and a haif. There are constant calls for Mr. Morris, ihe elecvrician, to attend to the wires. One man, named Mortord, worked cousecutiveiy thirty-two hours, only being relieved at meal-times. It will take a long time to get things in moving order again.” This report the operators say is perfectly accu- rated reliavle, and on no condition would this operttor be allowed to misrepresent things, as the reportis invended, not so much for publica- lion, as for the executive committee of the Broth- erhood, The officials say that such reports are all bosh and nonseuse. Mr. Somerville was asked about the report that all the operators on the Wa- bash Railway had struck, and he said that he did not Kuow detinitely whether the men had struck or not, but asiar as bad been learned the men had not gone on strike and would not go. At New York. NEw YorK, August 2.—There is no change in the telegraph war. Both sides are remaining firm. There bas been some delay owing to the vad weather, but not serious. Important Move. It is learned from a trustworthy source that ten men have been sent out by the Brotherhood of Telegraphers to organize all the railroad tele- graph operators, and that they are to be called upon next Monday to go out ou the strike. - THE RAILROADS. The Lake Erie Convicted--Kates tothe North ' fhe Wabash Redistricted—Notes. If half is true what is told of the Lake Erie and Western, it is certainly a terrible disturber of rates, not only freight, but passenger as well. It isonly a.short time sinceit got inthe habit of billing freight to Fostoria, Ohio, a town of five in- habitants. Some of the roads were harsh enough to insinuate that this was done to avoid reporting the freight carried that way to the pool. Anyhow this habit nearly brought around a freight rate war, and the habit was abstained from. Now the trouble is on pasvetey rates. It is claimed that the Lake Enmeand Western hasa ticket on sale reading out of Si. Louis, via the C. & A. to Blooin- ington and ‘rom Bloomifgton to Fostoria. Fremont or Sundusky, as the passenger may wish it. Itis further claimed that the scaipers of this city are paid a handsome commission for selling tickets over this route, and as the route is by no means a preferable one, the ®calpers cut the rate by taking olf part of their commission and letting the pas- seuger bave the benefit. To try to remedy this evil the vice-chairman of the Trunk Lines Pool cali€éd a inectiug Of the lines interested, which was held yesterday afternoon at the office of H.C. fownsend, G. P. A. of the Wabash. Ali the lines were represented, and after due deliberation it Was decided to report to the Conimissioner that the fuil penalty ol the agreement be imposed. The Commissioner Will probably order tbis line of lickets olf sale or make the Lake Erie advance its rates to the ainount of the commission paid the sculper. The Wabash Ke-Districted. The work of re-districting the Wabash, St.Louis and Pacific was consummated yesterday by Col. R. Andrews, General Superintendent, and K. H. Wade, Superintendent of Transportation, and is as follows, in districts: First District, Toledo to Andrews; Second. Ap- drews to Tilton end Covington oranch; Third, Detroit to Butler and Toledo braneh; Fourth, butler to Logansport; Fifth, Michigan City to Peru; Sixth, Peru to indianapolis; Seventh, Til- ton to Mt. Carmel and Vincennes branch; Eighth. Mt. Carmel to Cairo: Ninth, West Lebanon to Leroy; Tenth,Tilton to Springfield andsMonticello branch; Eleventh, Springfield to Hannibal and Piiisield branch; Twelfth, Bluffs to Quincey and Keokuk branch; Thirteenth Chieago to Be- ment; Fourteenth, Decatur to East St. Louis: Fifteenth, Bement to Altamont and Effingham branch ; Sixteenth,Bates to Grafton ; Seventeenth, Quincyto Trenton; Eighteenth, State Line to Peoria and Streater brauch; Nineteenth, Peoria to Keokuk, Warsaw and Buriington branches: Twentieth, Peoria to Jacksonville; Twenty-first, Havanato Sidney; Twenty-second, Havana to Springfleld; Twenty-thira, Keokuk to Humeston: Twenty-fourth, Relay to Des Muines; Twenty- fifth, Des Moines to Fonda and Boone branch: Twenty-sixth, St. Louis to Moberty and Columbia branch: Twenty-seve.th, Moberly to Kansas City and Glasgow branen; Twenty-eighib, Moberly to Ottumwa; Twenty-ninth, St. Joseph te Lexington Junction; Thirtieth, Brunswick to Stanberry: Thirty-first, Stanberry to Council Bluffs and Clo- rinda branch, Blvod Still on the Moon. When the representatives of the lines doing business between St. Louis and Minneapolis and St. Paul adjourned the meeting neld at the office of the G. rv. A. of the Wabash, on Tuesday, it was supposed that P. Lowell, G. P. A. of the C., Bb. & Q. would restore the rates to those points over the Keokuk, St. Louis and. Northwestern, as well as on the C., B. & Q., andin fact Mr. Town- send of the Wabash said to a Post-Dispatrcn reporter that evening that be had no doubts as to the restoration of the hk. & N.-W. being made this morning. A call atthe Q. office at noon to-day proved that the “blood on the muon” was still there, and Mr. Lemmon, the ticket agent, had re- ceived no orders to charge anv more than $20 via the Keokuk route,and he certainly had no authority to change or make rates. TheC. B. & Q. owns the controiling interest In the K. & N. W. and could easily order the restoration made if [). saw ft. The other rouds out of here have not mét the cut as oo. It 1s ae x4 ull Prary that after two Guys of silence Air. il Ww order rates restored. a ~ Notes and Personals. The office of the Erie and North Shore has been removed to 313 Olive pt a asa W. D.

FILLEY AND THE BEER-MUG. An Irate Saloon-Keeper’s Attempt to Slay the ‘*Buts.”’ As Chauncey I. Filiey and somé of his heneh- mén were returning from the schmier-kKase bar- " becue on the Gravois Road yesterday, the “boss” was made the victim of an assault thar nearly put an end to his usefulness, The taste of the cheese was Iving on Filiey’s pai. ate as he reached ‘“Boesch’s” saioon on Cherokee dnd lowa streets, and he proposed a bait tor a). other drink. The Invitation Was accepted. Foy, gentlemen sat down at the table with Mr. Fitiey viz: Judge ‘Heary A. Ciover, Fre Gerpert Piil Zeppy and Thos. 8B. Rodgers. Alter the first round George Loebs came j:; a: took a seat. Chris Moersehel, who marfed Boesch’s widow, and in that way pot an infer- in the place, viewed the banquetiers ww: cye.

No- body said a word. Chris sipped his wine, aud then pointing his finger at Filley, Who sat opposite, said: “Look here, Filley, you cannot come ont here and boss me, by G—d. Don’t you try it on.” “Nobody ts talking to you,” said Filley. “I’m talking to you, though, by Jeo! You think because you got my boyin the Post-oflice that I ought to take off ny hat and bow wo you. That’s ali paid up for long ago.” “Oh, shut up,” said Filiey. “Shut up, h—l,” was the answer. “You think because you run post-offices and conventions that you can come out bere and run my saloon.” “Nobody is trying to run you or your saivon.” “You're a liar.”’ , At this stage versions of the affair vary, but the general statement is that Mr. Filley said thit Moersche!i was “a d—d liar.” Anyhow. Chris got fighting hot. He made a blow siraight from the shoulder at the Republican leader. fell short, firstly because the table was four feet wide, and secondly becuse Mr. Moerschel’s abdomen is rapidly attaining Faistaffan proportions. Failing in his first at- tempt, Moerschei seized « heavy beer mug ; had his arin raised to burl it at Filley’s hes when George Loeb caught him. Fred Gerber gentiy wrestied with sin while he demanded to knew why Moersclhie had attempted to hita man while he Was sittin down. Moerschel made another speech about ho allowing any d——u man like Filley to run him, and was quietly led away. Mr. Filley never moved during the whole scene, and remaivoed for a couple of ronds of beer after hi8 assailant had been led away. HELD FOR MURDER.

No afternoon session of the Merchants’ Ex- change will be heid until September 10. The stock of corn here was down to 674,000 bu this morning, over 194,000 bu having been witl- drawn from elevators yesterday for river ship- ment. Further river shipments are to be made, and it is expected the stock here will be run pret- ty low in a short time.——""The farmers are the masters of the situation now,” remarked a well- known miller; “and the speculator has really nothing to say. Ifthe farmer shoves his wheat into market now he will probably have to accept pretty low prices, butifhe stacks and holds he will obtain higher prices.”——The boys on the floor spy, “if you are bearish, read the Globe- Democrat, and if you’re bullish, read the Republi- can,” referring to the Chicago market specials of these two papers.——One of the option traders is called the “Parrot of the pit.” Whenever a bid or offer to sell is made he invariably repeats it right after the party who makes the id or offer. . ©. Burroughs of Manhattan, Kan., writes Billingsly & Nanson regarding his observations of the corn crop, as gleaned through extended@ travel through different States: “In the States of lowa andpMissouri I am confi- dent there cannot be more than half a crop, so farasthe present prospects indicate. If there shouid be a very favorable season from this out and a late fall, so as to give the corn time to well- mature, there may be a. full average half ae. while on the other hand, if the season from this out should be in any way unfavorable to the growth of the corn and an early frost, then in such sectious the average would fallshort ofa half crop. * * * Iftne weather should be favorable from this out, the corn crop in Kansas will wonderful.”—— Imports into the United King- dom for week ending July 28, 1883, were 160,000@ 165.000 bris flour, 275,000@280,000 qrs wheat, 185,- 000@ 190.000 ars corn; week ending July 21, 1883, 7v,000@75,000 bris flour, 365,000@370,000 qrs wheat. 175,000.@180,000 qrs corn; week ending July 29, 1882, 1:5,000@130,000 bris flour, 335,000@340,000 qrs wheat, 125,000@130,000 ars corn,——The stock of flour in Chicago on August 1, 1883, Was 50,378 bris flour, against 56,664 bris on July 2, 1883, and 56,525 bris on August 1, 1882.——Stock of lard in New York on August 1, 1883,°37,218 tes, against 22,290 tes July 2, 1883, and 29,964 tes August 1, 1883. —The v&ible supply of grain on given dates was as follows: July 23. °83.

CATTLE—The offerlugs this morning showed some tuing of an increase, although as compared with the same time last week the arrivals have been less than Maif for the past two days. The general market was very brisk, and there wasa strodyg, active demand during the entire day for all kinds of cattle. Sales were inade at decidedly stronger figures, and good to choice natives for both butebering and shipping purposes were fuily 30c higher than the close of last week. Medium and fair grades weré also active and higher, while low grades were steady The quality of the most of the arrivals would average about fair and buyers were compelied co bid briskly for the best among the offerings. There was a good inquiry for butchers’ grades, cows and mixed lots ruling strong and active at prices generally higher ail round. Receipts of grass cattle were again rather limited, the demand good and the movement very brisk, so much so that the supply was readily exhaustel at an ad- vance of at least 10¢c siuce the opening of the week. The general tendency ot the cattle since the close of last week has been very bearish, and values, assisted by the light runs and the general good demand from all classes of buyers, have steadily worked upwards until the present satis- factory figures have been established; RULING QUOTATIONS.

A. C. SWINBURNE. A LUCKY WAGER. One of Frederika Bremer’s Pretty Lit- tle Swedish Romances. In the great Swedish university at Upsnia lived a young student, a fine looking fellow possessing great aptitude and love for learn- ing, but without the means of living while he wooed Dame Science. In other words he was poor, and consequently had no influen- f tial friends ready to assist him. Neverthe- less le studied hard, keeping up a light heart through all his difficulties, and trying not to look too keenly into the future, which certainly did not offer hima smiling pros- pect. His gay humor and his good qualities had always made him atavorite with his y ung companions. One day he was talking and joking with afew of them in the creat square of Upsula, passingin this pleasant iutercourse a part of an unexpected holiday, when the attention of the group’ was ajl- tracted by a young and graceful girl, who by the side ef an elderly lady was walking across the square. She was the daughter of the Governor of Upsula with her governess, and was gener- ally Known as the possessor of a kind and geptle disposition, which, together with her beauty, had iong since made her the object of especial admiration among thestudents. As the young men stared at her passing away like a beautiful vision, one of them cried out, “By jove!l a kiss from such a mouth would be worth a month in prison!” Our pv or student, the hero of this story, absorbed in the contemplation of this pure and aigelic face, answered impetuously, as ii by ipspiration, “Well! IL think 1 can ob- tain onel”’ “Whatl’ exclaimed all his friends ina breath. “$Are you crazy? Do you know her ?”’ ’ ' ‘Not in the least,” he replied; “but I think she would kiss me on the spot if 1 asked her!” “Willingly ?” © “Wiliingiy.” ‘ “Well! if she kisses you as you say, I will present you with a thousand dollars,” cried one. “And L” “And J,” continued three or four others, for, by a fortunate colucidenee, sey- eral of the richest students were of the party, aud the betting soon ran high on so impruba- bieanevent. The challenge was proposed aud accepted in less time tian it takes to re- mare it. Our hero, although not supremely hand- some, had received from his good fairy the sift of a most distinguished appearance, and now approached the young lady, saying, while he bowed deeply, ‘“‘“Mein Fraulein, my forcvune is in your hands.” She looked at him with astonishment, but stopped. He then went on to tell his name, his condition, his ambition, and finally confessed with the simplicity of truth what had passed between bis companions and himseitf. The young lady listened attentively, and when he had ceased speaking, she said with great gentieness, in the midst of her blushes: “If by so small a favor so much good can re- sult, it would be silly to reiuse your re- quest;” and she kissed the young man pub- licly in the open square. Vhe next day the student was arrested by order ‘of the Governor. He wished to see the man who had induced his, the Governor’s daughter, to kiss him in this way, as weil as thie man whom she had consented to kiss. lie received him with the sternness of an in- guisitor, byt after an hour’s conversation he Was 80 Charund with him that the student was invited to take his meals at the castle as long as he remained at Upsu a. Our young triend now continued his studies with an ardor which soon caused him to be regarded as one of the most brilliant.scholars of the University. Scarcely three years had passed since the day of the first kiss when the young student was permitted te sue for a secund from the Guvernor’s daughter as his betrothed. He became one of the most famous scien- tists of Sweden, as much esteemed for his high integrity as for bis learning. His works will live eternally among the most precious sitts of science, aud from his Kappy union sprang a family well known in Sweden at , resent, whose wea!th and position in the highest etreies are justly considered second- ary to their mentat and moral acquirements.

AFTER MANY DAYS. Marriage of Lovers After a Separation of f'wenty-eight Years. Philadelphia Dispatch to the Enquirer. The concluding episodes of a_ veritable romance were enacted in this city’ to-day. As the British Crown swung up to the American Line dock, an old woman who had been walking the deck since ggnrise leaned over the tattrail,ejaculated umframmatically “that’s him,” and disappeared in the cabin. At the same momenta still more elderly man on the deck shrieked “that’s my Benedicta,” and gamboled up the gang-plank, followed bv a body guard of friends, and rushed after the retreating Woman lito the cabin. ‘Twenty-eight years ago a scene as sad as this was joyous was enacted by the same when Thomas Barbour bade farewell to Benedicta Price, and set out to find his fort- une amid his kin beyond the sea. Kin at home had made the union of the couple an, impossibility for the’ time being, aud, al- though their ages were then respectively 42 ad 35 years, bey concluded to await tue removal by time of the family obstructions to the course of true lovee The time took nearly a third of acentury to the task, upsei- ting most of the institutions of the year 1850 except the ecean mail, whose expeditions hardly kept pace with the epistolary ardor of the lovers, until a-month ago the strain on the postal service was lightened by a let- ter from Miss Benedicta, announcing tuat she at last was free to redeetn the pledge she had kept so well. The resait was the re- union and demonstration on the British Crown. ‘The happy old couple took a car- riage and were drivep to Frankfort, where they Were married in the evening.

From the New York Sun, A curious mineral recentiy found in North Carolina has been described in the news- papers as a diamond embedded in emerald. lt is now in possession of Mr. J. D. Yerring- ton of New York, who said with regard toit: “It is acrystal of emeraid,an incu by inch and a halt face. Whathas been called a diawond is jnerely a piece of quariz crys- tal, which is imbedded firm!y in the emeraid, The crystal is about two-thirds the size of the emerald, and appears to have been driven intuit. Neither stene is very pure, and they are valuable oniy as mineralogical specimens. Thissort of erystal is commonly called a diamond in North Carolina, but as yet nv real diamonds have beeu fvund there, although varivus Kinds. of precious stones have from time to time bren discove ed. Many of these, chiefly emeralds of rare color calied Hiddenite, in honor of Mr. Hidden, the discoverer, are found in a small mine at Stony Point, which was opened about two years ago, and has been worked more or less since that time. ‘Phe emeraids are found ia pencils of various sizes, Some are of a dark green color, but most of them are pale green. Some of the pencils, are very large, the iargest being 8% inches long. ‘In the same vicinity have been found gar- nets, rubies, aqua-marine, topaz, and other precious stones. ‘“lhere‘is some reason to believe that the Dewey diamond, the largest dia:uwond ever found in the Uuited States, which was cut bv the Morse Diamond Cutting Company in 1852, came from North Carolina, although it was fuuud by an Lrish labore? in Manchester, Va. When found it was imbedded ina cur- ious stone known as ita cvulumite, large quantities of which, in ledges, are found in North Carolina. It appears that a load of this stone had been taken to Manchester for assaying, and it is coujeciured that this piece in which the dia- mond was einvedded dropped from the cart onthe way. It weighed 23% carats, and when cut 11 11-16 carats. ‘The cutting cost $1,000, and the stone itself may be roughly estimated as worth $10,000. ‘“\ curious peculiarity of this ita columite is that it is a flexible stone. 1 have a chunk of it that will bend buth ways. The stone is a Course sandstone, and way be used for building purposes. Mr. Derby, a native of New York, ands graduate of Cornell University, who is em- vloyed by Dom Pedro as geologist of Bra- zil, visited the mineral. district of North Carolina, and said that if be had been taken to the piace Dilindfolded, and then, on the bandage being removed, had been asked where he was, he should bave said unhesi- tatingly that he was in the diamond district of Brazil. He did not, however, find any diamonds in North Carolina. “The following lines on Hiddenite, which’ is sometimes called the American emerald, were written by the Rey. W. H.

A peasant who was abroad at night em countered a highwayiman, who callea out: “Your money or your life!” The peasant wanted to live to see three days without a thunder shower or a cyclene, and he therefore emptied his pockets of his loose change. But, behold, next day he was arrested for passing counterfeit money, and when brouglit into court he discovered that his accuser Was the man who had robbed a chat mav all be,” replied the judge to his statement, “but do you know whether or vot this man made a menta! reservation to return the money when be could get work in a cider miil!” And thereupon he cast the peasant intp jail and thanked the robber for his prompt complaint to the law.

Only a Question of Who Can Hold Out Longest in the Strike. Master-Workman Shaw was found this morn- ing on the street, whistling “‘Wait ’Til the Clouds Roll By,” and was tapped by the reporter for the latest developments on the strike situation. It was rather a blind lead, but he said that the Brotherhood men on the railroads had been in- structed not to receive Western Union business, and all others had been requesed not to do so. The Union expected ready compliance with the request, and a considerable bothering of the company in consequence. “I see,’ said he, “by the dispatches that men have been imported from Engiand to help the Western Union. Now that just shows that this talk about having po vacancies to fill 1s not true. If it has no vacancies to fill whatis it importing operators for? Besides, Euglish Operators are of no value to them.’’ A theatric:] performance for the benefit of the strikers is one of the projects talked about now, and may ve given soon. COL. L. C. BAKER said that news was scarce on his side of the fight. Tie notiees of “subject to delay’’ are down in the offices. “We have knowin,” said he, “that the Union has been trying its best to get the railroad operators to unite with them, and has had axents at work among them, but of 1,200 country offices in my disirict I have had trouvie at only seven or eight. I dou’t think 1 per cent will respond to ihe call. You see these men are working for sey- eral companies and if they neglect our work they cannot hold — their positions, 80 the Union wiil find it difficult to managethem. if they should obey the Brotherhood’s instructions it would be a big strike and wouid be trouble- some. . “What about the reported importation of En- glisi operators?” “I know no more about it than you do; only what 1 have seen in the papers.” “Could you make use of them?’”’ “What is to Innder us from doing it? The only difference in the systems is a difference nm some of the letiers in the alphabet, but then we could tan English operator at Chieago and one at ‘ew York, for imstance, and why couldn’t they work together? Of course we could use them, and, besides, the sialaries paid in England are much lower thay here.

There was a loud slap that could be heard 100 yards away and a gentleman who had been reclin- ing at the end of a bench in Washingtom Park early last evening suddenly assumed a sitting posture, while with a vengeful “Gosh ding it!’ he proceeded to brush the carcass of a mosquito from his left hand. A trampish-looking individ- ual reclining at the other end of the bencn havy- ing noticed the occurrence, remarked ; “You slew him, did you?” “Yes, I got him that time,” the gentleman re- ‘plied, “and I'd liketo get about 50,000 more of them in the same style.” “Well, stranger,” said the other, “‘you’d have to keep slaying them mighty rapidly to kill ’em all off. They're thicker’n Kinks in a nigger’s wool, and the crop keeps on growing every few minutes.
