The Inwardness of the Great Ob- jector’s Presidential Boom. Supplementing the Regular Army With a Mi= litia Organization—Colored Schoels-China and France—Washington Letter, os —— Speciat Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, September 5,—Gen. Drum has spoken his mind about the regular army and the militia and the sentiment of all military men is with him. The army of the United States is certainly a very light affair as compared with those of other countries of like rank, and Gen Drum’s theory*that it ought to be sup- plemented with a strong and available mili- tia organization meets with general approval here. In this connection some statements regarding the strength of the armies of other countries, recently obtained here, are inter- esting, The army of this country, as is well understood, is, in round numbers, 25,000, No other nation of even half the population, has as insignificant an army. There are only three other countries with a population equal to or exceeding that of this country. ‘These are China, British India and Russia. The latter country, whose population is about 50 per cent greater-than ours, has a standing army of aimost a million men, or about forty times as great as our own. Gritish India, whose population is five times that of our own, has an army nearly eight times as large asours. China, with a povuiation neariy eight times as large as our own, has an army twelve times as large. Germany, whose pupu- lation is ten per cent less than ours, bas a standing army nearly twenty times as large as our own. France, with a population twenty-five per cent less than our own, has an army twenty .iies as great as ours. Great britain, whose popuiation is also tweuty-five per cent below our own, has an army five times asyreat. TILDEN AND HOLMAN. There is a growing belief in certain quar- ters that sly Samuel Tilden is behind the H.lman boom, and that it is simply one of Samuel's shrewd tricks to split up the lndiana people, aud thereby injuge Me- D.naia’s chances, which were becoming altogether tou guod to suit him. The tueorv is that theSunis booming Holman at Tilden’s order for this purpose ouly, and when it has thus slaughtered McDonald Holman will be dropped. .‘Litis is a very pretty theory, and it may be true sOfar as the inteutions of the chief actors in the scheme gy, but if so itis doubtless being done Wi.hout the knowledge of Hviman. He is as bunest in bis relations to his fellows as he is in his duty as a tjegis- lator, and he would not be a party to any such performance as this. “itow will Tilden and John Kelly get aloug this time?’ your correspondent asked of a New Yorker recently. ‘Tilden will see that Keily is straight this time,’’ was the answer. ‘“‘It is only a ques- tion of the loaves apd shes with Kelly, aud you may be sure that Tilden is not going into the fight again without takiug-ecare uv that animai, and dving it well, too. The im- pression continues to gain strength here that ‘Tilden will be the nominee of the Dewccratic party. COLORED SCHOOLS, The Normal Insutute in session at Staun- ton, Va., near here, i. aitracting a good deal of attention as indicating the progress of the colored race in the educational line. This is the first institute of the kind held in Vir- ginia uuder the entire coutrol of the colored race. ‘the Institute was calied in honor of the Normal School autuorized by the last Legi-.iature tobe opened at Petersburg, for the exciusive use of the colured teachers of the Siate. The State now has 1,100 colored teachers, and 158 pupils to évery~ teacher. ‘The lustitute has a regular course of study, consisting of grammar, arithmetic, algebra, geoyraphy, history, re: nog, writing and inusic. ‘ne methods oi iustruetion are by object teaching, charts, lectures, etc., and the progress of the pupii-teachers is very en- couraging. ‘The institutes are tobe made annuai, and are to be heid at different por- tions of the State each year 30 as to give thie teachers at large the iull benetit of the system. ‘The colored people of the State and of other tates are manifesting a great interestin the | ustitutes as a step forward in the education of the colored race, and there is reason to hope that it may extend tu other States, and may reaily be the beginning of the end of the vexed question of the relation of the races in the Scuth. CHINA AND FRANCE, The impressivad ip military and diplomatic circles regarding the Fraucp-Chinese war is not favorable to France. Alone, without the moral or other support of any other country, China might find some difficulty in repelling the attacks of France. Her reguiar army is only 300,000, wifile that of France is 500,000. Even on a war footing the Chinesé army is only amillion, while that of France is three willions. Yet the ‘tircum- stances are uufavorable to France that the chances seem to be _ — against her. China has a very large coast, and auy attempt to biockade her vurts would prove almost a certain failure. The 6,000 men she has in Tonquin are already fully employed in halding the advantage that she has already gained. Heretofure the British have made no objection to the use of the Suez Canal for the transfer of trvops and supplies for the petty quarrel in Tonquin, but it Is not prob- pose in case the war Is to be made on the basis that the iuterterence of China seems to indicate. England dues a very large prupor- tion of the carrying trade fur China, and has half her commeree. ‘The share of Frauce ip the carrying trade or in the commerce of China is littie more than 5 per cent. Engiand has no love for hm and ba = . closing the ports o er most im an casteanet: both at home and in india, apd wiil not hesitate to thruw what obstacle she can in the way, aud to join with Germany in at least a moral support of, and quiet assist- ance to China. A CASE OF NECESSITY. England Only Gives Ireland Remedial Legislation When It Has To, New Yorks, September 7.—The Brooklyn branch of the irish National League, which is composed of all the local Irish societies, held a sort of grand jubilee yesterday after- noou and evening at Ridgewood Park, on the Jamaica plank road, just outside the Brook- lyn City line. The societies commenced wo. gather in the vicinity early in the afternom, ander Sullivan, the president of the reached the ground.

Robinson, Hon. Daniel Bradley, Thomas J. Dennehy, Judges Walsh and Courtney and Mathew Harris of Galway, Irelan A SHORT SPEECH OF WELCOME was made by Judge Rooney, and then Salli- van was introduced. He said Enogiand, with er commerce extending to all quarters of the globe, could not afford to have an otganized nation of expatriated millinos with the pow- er, the success and the weaith they had ac- cumulated in exile, and all moved by intense hatred for her. Parnell predicted a few — ago that the landlords would one day be the most earnest advocates in Ireland of his policy of purchase of lands for the tegen by the Government. That prediction as already been verified. The time will come, if the IRISH PEOPLE BE KEPT HOSTILE to England by brutal misgovernment, when the English people will be more anxious to have Home Rule granted to Ireland than the Irish will be to aceept it. The En:glish Government never enacts remedial legislation for Ireland because it ouglit to. It only yields such legislation when it must. The outlook for Ireland, how. ver, was brighter than it ever had been. A number oi other addresses were made and the afternoon andevening were devoted to daucitng and various athletic gaines. atte 15,000 people participated in the cele- on. A DISEASED MIND. The Gossips’ Latest Concerning Judge Hoadly’s Health. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch, PHILADELPHIA, September 7.—Judge Hoadly, the Democratic nominee for Govern- or Of this Sate, is still atthe St. George’s Hotel, unable % receive visitors. Repurts have been in cirtulation during the past few days, which received confirmation from Cin- cinnati, that his mind has become partially disordered, and that his menta! condition is worse than his intimate friends Wish to have known. His physician and old personal frieud, Dr. Robert Bartholomew, said to-day, when questioned as to the pres- ent condition of the Judge: “He is improving rapidly, and to-day is REALLY VERY MUCH BETTER. Within two weeks I hope_to have him entire- ly recovered and back in Ohio.” “What is the exact nature of his trouble?” “Simply malarial fever, from which the re- covery is very slow. There is always great danger of a relap-e, therefore Lam keeping bim pertectly quiet until he shal! lave entire- ly recovered his full strength and vigor.” “There are reports that his mind has be- come affected. Is there any truth in it?” “Not in the slightest decree. Malaria alone is the cause of his being in Philadel- phia. There is not the ieast ground for any sucii reports. IE COULD MAKE A SPEECH to-day, but he is under my orders, and I won't have it. Hisintellect is just as clear and keen and calm as it ever was.” *Don’t he leave his room?” “No. Under my orders he stays in his | apartinent, but he is by no means confin d to bis bed. I do not permit him to see any one, because i wisa his mind to remain en- tively uudisturbed.”’ Edgar M. Johnson, Judge Hoadly’s law pariwer, When asked how the patient was getiing aiony, replied: “He is feeling very nicely to-day. He will be allright in afew} days, and wiil.be aking @ stump speech in two weeks froiw to-day.’ “It is reported thai the State Committee is taiking of aocing for his withdrawa:?” **That is ali a lie. No one has ever thought of such a thing except a few foois, He wiil finish the cauvass.”’ —_—_— In the Tiger’s Den. By Telegraph to the Posi-Dispatch. NEw YORK, September 7.—The gambling houses at Coney Island remained open yes- terday. The Giavesend police appeared to shut their eyes as they walked past Baur’s pool-room and the Jumbo Hotel, They did not seem to know that within a few yards of their accustomed rounds games of far& red and black, roulette and hazard were playing. The policemen, with big shields on their left breasts, were contented enough to look now and theé at the new moon, or its reflection in the surf. The Jumbo game was in full operation. Andy Sheehan, its pro- prietor, was constantly in and around the room, where thousands of dollars were at stake. The seven tables, where every con- ceivable game of chance was offered to those who wished to try their luck, were all well patronized. In fact, the men behind the tables were kept busy attending to bets of those in frontof them. The faro tables were resorted to the most. There were fuur of them in active operation and the betting was at times very iively. The limit was $50. The other games had but few patrons, and when the customers wu any money Hoy | immediately ca-hed in and started for the bigger game to lose all or win a big stake. Itis not believed that the ambling p.aces at the Isiaud will be inter- red with now, as the season is drawing to aclose. It was learned last evening thata meeting of the leading citizens of Gravesend will be held to-day witha view to petition- ing Authony Comstock, the agent of the So- ciety for the Suppression of Vice, to take some immediate activn fur their relief. Fired a Court House. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. CHATTANOOGA, TENN., September 7,— Another attempt has been made to burn the county records of Walker County, Georgia. At 10 o’clock in the morning the Ordinary’s office in Lafayette was discovered to be on fire. The incendiary had brought for his work a couple of botties filled with kerosene, had saturated a door, a shutter and the floor, started the fire with a match, and then, mounting a horse, fled. Fortunately Steve Knox saw the fire almospas soon as it was started. He gave the alarm promptly, and it became general. A gallant fight was made and the building was saved, but not until it was well marked by the flames. The ‘floor is burned through, both before and be- hind the duor. The wood-work between the door and the window on the right is de- stroyed and the ceiling is burned through in eight places. The frst clew as to the route of the incendiary was given by Wiley Dick- son. ‘Almost as soon as the alarm was he was awakened by the sound borse’s hoofs runni the bridge by J.

Instantaneous Effect of Marriage ona Pennsylvania Youth. a — Goes Raving Mad a Moment After the Cere- mony is Performed—The Seventeen-Yeare Old Bride—A Strange Story. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. WILKESBARRE, Pa., September 7.—Will- iam Judson Garrison, a farmer’s boy living near here, was married yesterday and imme- diately after the ceremony, on realizing what he had done, became a raving maniac. Lizzie Bogert, a comely country lass, 17 years old, spent the morning yesterday with her lover looking for a clergyman to maké hem one, but all the reverend gentlemen re- fused on accofnt of the youth of the would. be bride. Then the girl’s father went with . them to a rural justice, and on his approval the ‘squire consented to perform the cere- mony, which was soon finished, and after *Squire Anderson had kissed the bride he sat down to his desk and wrote out the marriage certificate. Young Garrison had just kissed his bride, and while the justice was writing he observed in a quiet, ordinary tone of vuice, “? AM INSPIRED BY GOD.” The bride biushed at the strength of this compliment, but she grew pale when Garri- son suddenly overturned the table, wrenched the leg. off a chair and charged on the aston- ished wedding party. They al! fled in a mo- ment and the newly made _ busband enjoyed himself by smashing everything in the room. The stove was broken to pieces, dishes were smshedand the door was splintered. When he had finished the work of destruction he went out on the stoop of the house, quietly removed bis clothing and then started onarun through the vil- lage. A small crowd pursued him overa bridge which spansacreek, and called out to Thomas Stiller, who was fishingin a boat, to head off the man. He did so, and Garri- son was at last captured and led back to the justice’s office. There he was clothed and BOUND WITH ROPES. A commitment was then made out and the party was’ about to start for Wilkesbarr to have him placed in jail when he said i they would go by his father-in-law’s house he would accompany them quietly. His wish was complied with and his frenzy ap- peared to suvside. Upon arrivirg at his wire’s home he said he was hungry and asked for supper. He ate a hearty meal and chatted pleasantly for awhile, after which he retired and was not disturbed until 4 e’ clock this morning. He was then aroused and told that he would have to go to jail. The news angered bim and he made a vigor- ous fight but was eventually overpowered, bound hand and foot and tied up in a blanket. Limp and helpless he was tien placed in a wagon and brought to this city. It was with difficulty that several! pelicemen could hold him or conduct him to the padded cel! which is provided for maniacs. Deputy Warden McDonald HAD HALF HIS BEARD TORN OUT, and several of the officers were badly bruised. Garrison held on to McDonaid’s beard until his wrist was pounded with a bunch of keys and nearly broken. As soon as he had been turned loose in his ceil, Garrison tore off all his clothing and destroyed his bed tick. Then he flung the fragments through the bars of his cell, Fo was offered to him, but he refused to eat and threw it out into the corridor. Sometimes he becomes quiet, then again he pours outa stream of, profanity and obscenity, mingled with pious platitudes. To the correspond- entotthe Post-DispatTca, who saw him in his ce | to-day, he said that he a the lord of lords and the king of kings, and that he was now in the bonds of iniquity. HE WAS NEVER INSANE BEFORE, but his mother passed some time in an asy- ium. The young bride is prostrated with grief at the strange effect the marriage has had upon her husband. She has taken to ber bed, and it is feared that her terrible misfortune may affect her brain. —— ——Oo Most Likely Not, PORTLAND, ME., September 7.—Letters re. ceived here from officers of the United States ship Alliance, dated Georgetown, Prince Ed- ward Island, Aucust 31, two days after the great gale, say the Alliance was not then ex- eoting to cruise in the direction of Halifax. care is no probability that she was wrecked at Indian Head Harbor. ind A Micliigan Fire, CEDAR SpPrRinGs, Micu., September 7. os s ao) ~~ Py -* % .-< The parade of the Order of Cincinnatus toox ~S “ . : ” Mea ‘J a . - 4 nA te ee sec gt ERT he ae a ae /

New York, September 7.—The story of the transfer by John Jacob Astur of his im- mense real estate to his son, William W. Astor, the, United States Minister to Italy, excited much talk down town to-day. If Mr. Astor’s interests had been principally in railroad and other active securities, this transfer of his property would have had much effect on the market, but the property being forthe most part in real estate the transaction was viewed merely with interest,, as involving an immense property. The story was generally credited, and business men thought thatit was a sensible act, and one to have been expected from an Astor. John Jacob Astor was not a prominent figure on the street. Henry Clews, speaking of him yesterday, said that he often pur- chased heavy lines of stocks, but always for Cush, never on margins. He purchased for investment ony, and not for speculation. He always made good seleciions from the list. He was connected with several cgm- panies and binks, but devoted more of his time to real estate. A short time ago he was indu@ed to aliow himself to be elected asa durex ot the Western Union. Mr. Astor is Known to have large holdings of coal stock, particularly in Delaware, Lackawan- naand Western, and Delaware and Hudson. He is a director in the latter company, and also a direetor in the Bank of Commerce and the United States Trust Company. MISSOURI NEWS.

A Negro Minstrel Makes 4 Soene atthe Olympic. Mr. Dougherty in an “Unfortunate” Mood Last Night—The Effect on the Audience-- The End Man Fined $100--Manager Gu~ ’ Jick's Explanation. Before Haverley’s Minstrel show had pro- ceeded very far in the programme at the ({lvmpic last night, it was evident that one of the end men was in trouble. He was 80 evi- dently funny, in a way in which he did not intend, that a Post-DisPpATCH representa- tive and, in fact, the whole of the audience began to watch for~ developments. The end-man ¢canie on the stage, laboring under the idea-that he was the only perform- es in whom the audience was at all inter- ested. As the atmosphere of the theater grew warmer, the mninstre!l-man seemed to think that he recognized some members of the audience, and that it was his duty&o pav_ considerable attention to them, and the following Sr. Lovrs, Mo., September 7, 1883. ‘lo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: As an old patron of your paper and advertising columns, I trust that the disgracetul actions, through his intoxicated condition, of one of Haverly’s end-men_ did not escape the vigilant eye of the Post-DIs- PATCH reporter, as it has of the morning journals. There are limits which even anend man of a minstrel show cannot go beyond, and the carryings-on of this intox!- cated person did exceed those limits. Not satisfied with placing the parties in the box in a very unenviable position, he commenced his capers on ladies in front seats, one In par-, ticular, who was accompanied by her hus- band, who sat close to myself, being greacly embaryassed and her amusement for which slfe had paid, ruined. If the stage manager of Haverly’s Minstrels has not enough common decency, to prevent mem- bers of his company from attempting to play their parts when in such a condition, the Olympic Theater management ought to step in. Lhoepe your “Bohemian” was present, if he was, I am confident you will not, through neglect or fear, allow such an affair to pass without its just condemnation. Yours sineerely, V ERITAS. The Post-Disepatcu “Bohem 1’ was on haud and saw the affair desecr:..d in the eard.. The gentieman who so disiinguished himselt was Hugney Dougherty, who does the stump speech business, and is also men of Haverly’s show. Dougherty has been drinking some lately, and last night, unknown to the management, he got on the stage in a condition which Unfit- ted him for the performance of his part. A Post-DisPaTcu reporter met Mr. J. A. Gulick, the manager of Haveriy’s Minstrels, this morning. Aiter he had read tne card published above, Mr. Gulick said: ‘| have no wish to excuse Mr. Dougherty nor to question any person's right to find fault with any wnegligence on an artist’s part, yet 1 must say il! think the severity of tone which pervades the letter totally uncalJed for. I saw Mr. Dougherty’s every move and heard his every word, for the reason that 1 Was, as manager of the company ,naturally anxious that nothing should go wrong. Nobody knew, until the curtain had gone up, that Mr. Doughterty had been unfortunate. and so after the discovery I was all atten- tion during the whole performance. I will say this, that Mr. Dougherty is a gentleman who is ineapable of inthe slightest degree misconducting himself or making any lady feei nncomfortabie, and that while he lacked his usual brilliancy and vivacity he was notinacondition to disgust any one. if “Veritas” will remember that many tamous factors are periodicaliy unfortunate, he will doubtless see where a little charity comes in very nicely, and I wiil further say that being personally acquainted with the occupants of the boxes 1 can vouch for the fact that they experienced no embarrass- ment. There was a litile smoke, but no need of so much fire.” Mr. Gulick further said that he had since ascertained that Dougherty had drank only a couple of glasses of . wine, that drinking wasa sort of disease with him, and that it took only a few drinks to Knock him out. THE MANAGER ALSO STATED that Mr. Dougherty was all right to-day, which showed plainly that he was not on what is knownas a “spree.” Mr. Gulick mentioned incidentally that it bad cost Mr. Dougherty just $100 to be. “unfortu- nate’ Jast night, as he had been docked that sum for the little eseapade. The party in the boxes alluded to were some members of Maud Granger’s company, a couple _—icof Mr. Gulick’s __rela- tives, and Mr. Robertson’s children. Dougherty knew some of them, which, ina inanner, accounts for iis actions in that quarter. There is no doubt, however, that he was drunk, He has been leading a “‘gay life’ for several days, and was one of a party who helped to cousume that $40 worth of spirits at Dick Hart’s saloon on Wednesday. He probably secured a bowl or two more yesterday than the two glasses of wine ofwhich Mr. Guliek heard.

By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. BuFFALO, September 7.—Fully 50,000 peo- ple lined the banks of the Niagara River over the deadly whiripvol rapids this afternoon, The attraction was the experimental trip of a boat riggedup to resembie the famous Maid of the Mist, and which was sent over the course that Capt. Webb swam. Since Webb’s death in the whirlpool the mystery surrounding the formation of this maelstrom has engaged the attention of the curious, and the scientific the world over. The boat was made up from an old scow to resemblea steamer. She was givena smoke-stack and furnished with a large stove for the sake of having a natural appearance. The work upon her was very strong and when rigged out with flags, evergreens afd other decora- tions the littie vessel LOOKED AS JAUNTY AS NEED BE ata distance. Her length is fifty-two feet and her beam sixteen feet. She was towed outtrom the old Maid’s landing on the Canadian side, amile and a quarter above the whirlpool, by two row-boats a few ninutes after 3 o’clock, Charles Wieceman, who was for a_ time as- sociated with Capt. Webb, had charge of the experiment. The start appeared slow and before she found the current-a collision with a rock on the American shore occurred. By this she lest two boards from the bull above the water line, but she was pushed ont to the center of the stream and after a momen- tary difficulty in getting her head the richt Way » good start was made. She gracefully eareened over the first rapids, but richiea and then with frightful velocity sped on, vaulting over the several ridges like a huge animated water fowl. When nearly through revolutions and whirlpoo! stern first. followed the successful transit | through the rapids. On entering the whirl pool she made two revolutions on her kee), and darted towards the Canadian shore, and the deafening cheers of right end to. Dre crisis had now been oot : spectators strained their eyes to note every movement of the boat. SHE RODE THR WAVES in that spot for nearly a quarter of an hour, with bow side and stefn alternately towarus the shore; making revolutions slowly. It looked asif the vessel was destined to re- mInain hedged in by the maelstrom until broken to pieces, and although the waters leaped and roared and seethed, she was not lost sight = of for an in- stant. Finally, when her prow ckhme very close to the shore, venturesome men climbed down the edge of the rock and with wy shoved her off. When she was taken nto the curfent the staunch little craft was literally hurled across the whirlpool, stern first, and shot out of the angry complex cur- rents into the open river, apparently unin- jured. At this juncture the pent up feelings of the crowd found outlet in prolonged cheers and vociferous yells. The trip lasted about thirty minutes, the time over the miie and a quarter of rapids being seventeen minutes, and that in the whirlpool thirteen minutes. The vessel was boarded at Lewiston and found to be little damaged. AN ATTEMPT TO ANNUL The Will of the Late Mrs. Williard Fisk —$1,500,000 Involved. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. ITH aca, N. Y., September 7.—The Ithaca Journal this evening contains an account, five columns in length, of the effort to annul the will of the late Mrs. Williard Fisk, whereby Cornell University received $1,500,- 000, at the instance of her husband, Prof. Williard Fisk, ex-librarian of the Univer- sity. Lieutenant-Governor Hill is his coun- sel. Samuel S. D. Holliday is counsel for the University, and ex-Judge Countryman is counsel for Judge Buardman, the executor of the will. The nature Of thé present action is a motion to open the final acecunting of the executor, by which he paid $800,000 to the University, and to have him account for the money still in his hands. ‘The ground on which the action is brought is a clause in the charter forbidding the University to lhioid property in excess of $3,000,000. The Uni- versity authorities refuse to outline their defense. A decree opening the final account- ing, by consent ot ex-Judge Boardman and the University authorities, was tnade to-day at the hearing in the Surrogate's Court. The issue involves the title to tne Fisk mansion on University Hill and other property, in ad- dition to the personal estate. Prof. Fisk is now in Florence, Ltaly. President White intended leaving Southampton, England, for Jinaca yesterday. ‘Lhe date is not yet agreed upon for the hearing on the re-opeved tinal accounting. The action of Prof. Fiske is irreconcilable with his public adaress at the laying of the corner-stone of Cornell Uni- versity.

Got What He Deserved. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. DEcATUR, GA., September 7.—Near Dara- ville, in De Kalb County, a negro entered the house of Mr. Sprewell, who was absent, and demanded of Mrs. Sprewell something toeat. She told him she had nothing pre- pared. He thereupon drew a pistol upon her and compelled her to furnish him food. After eating he demanded all the money in the house, and was given $6. Emboldened bv his success, he grossly insulted the lady. Indignaantly spurning the wretch, she screamed for assistance, which put the negro to flight and brought three white farm hands tu the house, one of whom was her son. The trio started in pursuit of the negro and inafew minutes brought him to bay with his back against a rock. As young Spreweill advanced to take him a prisoner, the black suddenly whipped out his knife and stabbed Sprewell to the heart, killing him instantly. Sprewell’s enraged com- panions thereupon drew their revolvers and fired simultaneously, dropping the negro dead over his victim’s body, with two bullets in his brain. No arrests will be made, as public sympathy is with the avengers. Let Her Go For All She’s Worth. NEW York, September 7.—Capt. R. F.

We have the road-bed, and don’t fail to recollect it.” Mr. Kinnan, general agent of the Air Line, was busy filling out ticket-, and says he is perfectly satisfied with the patronage his line is receiving. There 1s yet nod sign of peace. The brokers on Third stréet last evening were greatly worked up on receipt of @ tele- gram trom New York, received by Kohn & Co., to the effect that Gould_had probably gained Control of the New York Central. The reporter made a searching investiga- tion of the rumor, but, ag was expected, no one here knew anything on whieh to base an opitrion us to the solidity of the repurt. This morning while at work on the rumor @ rall- road man who is pretty well posted said a to the hews hunter that he had ho way to judge of the status of the New York Central rumor, but he had good grounds for think- ing that before the Ist of January Gould and Huntington, or the former alone, would own a contruiling interest in the Louisville and Nashville. This rather opened the eyes of the reporter, fur it was generally supposed that Victor Newcomb would cling to the supremacy in L. stock like a fond mother to her babe. The reporter asked: “Why, what has become of H. Victor New- comb ?”” “Oh, he’s quit railroading, and is president of the United States Bank at Louisville.” “Don’t he speculate in rail shares any more ?” “Yes, I think he does, but I have it pretty straight that he is out of the L. & N., and its my candid opinion that Gould will take the L. & N. in out of the wet.” At present there is no one aside from Gould and Huntington’s brokers or the gen- tlemen themselves can answer for the truth of either of the stories. In fact the only sure way to learn the truth is to wait for the annual elections. Loeal Fire Record. At 8:48 this morning an alarm of fire was given from Summit and Pacific avenues.

But a thorough canvass among those who were supposed tn know, ied to nothing definite or reliable. Some bad heard ihat the transfer had already been made, while others had been informed that negotiations were in progress, and an. offer had been made and was now under consideration.

Efforts to Effect a Compromise Now ou Foot. At the meeting of the Council to-night Mayor Ewing wiil send in but one nomina- tion, that for Chief of the Fire Department. It is necessary that he shouid do so, as the time elapses to-night. Failing in submitting a name the Council may elect. **Who Will be the nominee?” asked a re- porter of the Mayor this morning. “Oh, that you will have to guess.” “Will there be any more nominations semé in to-night?” “No! None are necessary.” “Tio you know whether the Councilmen have reached any understanding as to the manner in which your nominations are to be treated ?”’ “I do not know anything definite. Every litude while it looks as theugh matters would be straightened out but then the arrange- ynent falls through.” Councilman Devoy was in consultation for nearly two hours with the Mayor this morning.” When approached by a l’ost-D1s- PATCH reporter he said, “‘l am perfectiy sat- isfied that the council and Mayor wiil come to an understanding between now and the first meeting next week.

HOADLY AND FORAKER. A Talk About the Political Prospects in the Buckeye state. . Alderman 8. M, Ford of Kansus City has just returned from Ohio, and was met in the city to-day by a Post-DisPaTcH reporter. While in the State he devoted some attention to watching the direction of political straws. In answer to a question as to the prospects of the campaign he said. “I have talked with both Republicans and Democrats and I think that, aithough the result is uncer- tain, Hoadly stands the best chance of elec- tion. You know there are two con- stitutional amendme nts submitted; one doing away with the prohibition on the liquer trafic and ‘the other a straight-out prohibition amendment. Fora- ker and Sherman both have deciared against the second amendment, and this will drive the Prohibition Republicans who would otherwise have. voted for Fora- ker to the support of the abe pegoscans ticket. The Seott law, too, is osing ground and is not so popular now as it was some time ago. It has the opposition of the temperance people becanse it legalizes liquor selling; it has the opposition of many saloon-keepers, because it places an equal tax on ail saloons and crushes out the smaller saloons and the saioons in small towns, and it is opposed by many people for various similar reason,’ “What effect will Hoadly’s sickness have on his prospects ?”’ “Il don’t think Hoadly is as sick as is made out. I think he wants to get out of Hamilton County until the row there is settied. He don’t want to get mixed up in it and he will stay away awhile and then come back and make a brilliant ending of the campaign and win. it, I] think. Some of the sangnine Democrats figure his majority as high as 30,000.” “Will the McLean-Pendleton fight in Cin- cinnati aifect the State campaign much?” “Oh no, that is the reguiar kick of the kid- glove element and the Pendleton men will gene support the McLean ticket and don’t think it will injure Hoadly a pariti- cle, in fact, some think it wili help him by bringing out a fuller Democratic vute than otherwise would be pulled. ‘The campaign has been dull up to this time, but it will warm up before the election comes on. Important Railroad Meeting. NEw YorkK, Septethber 7.—A conference was heid here yesterday between General Manager Stanton of the Pennsylvania, Ston- ington and New England Road, and General Manager Swan of the Storm King Bridge Road, relative to the placing of gen- tlemen from the Storm King Road in the di- rectory of the Pennsylvania, Stonington and New England *Road.. The election of Chas. KE. Hill as president of the roads, and to con- enlidate the two interests wag talked of. President Gowan, of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, made a traffic contract with the Pennsy!vania, Stonington and New England, agreeing to give 1,000,000 tons a year for the Eastern ¢Gonsumers. General Manager Swan said this step meant the immediate completion of the Pennsylva- nia. Stonington and New England Road, which required only $500,000 to compiete seventy-eicht miles. and also meant the immediate building of the Storm King bridge across the Hudson River, which would make an air line from Boston over the New York and New Eng!aud road to Harris- burg, Pa., and which would shorten the aistance. from East to West over 10) miles and furnish the East with coal and cotton without break of bulk. In fact it will establish a short and unbroken. route from California to the East. The couference will be resumed again Monday. SUMMER EXODUS. G. B.

If this Classification adopted by* the reads is ratified it would operate to give them an increase from 10 to 50 per cent in rates, as compared with the maximum rates now al- lowed by the board.

M., No afternoon session of the Merchants’ Ex- change wil! be held until September 10. The amount of grain on passage forthe United Kingdom on September 1 was 1,200,000 bu. smaller than the week earlier, and 3,260,000 bu less than September 1, 1882.——Hog packing from March 1 to September 5, 1883, as reported by the Cincinnati Price Curreit, was 2,815,000 hogs, against 2,535,000 same time last year.——The St. Paul SPioneer- Press, figuring on the overplus of wheat in Minne- sota this year,gives the acreage as 2,507,171, which, at 15 bushels to the acre (a moderate estimate), is 37,607,565 bu. ‘The amount consumed by the popu- lation, per capita, has been proven to be a barrel of flour, or five bushels of wheat, per year. Placing the population of the State at 922,708, this would make 4.613.540 bu. For seeding at 14% bushel to the acre, 3,761,756 bu would be required. The over- plus, consequently, would be 29,232,269 bu.——The English hop markets are stronger and prices 2s higher, owing to reported damage to the crop.—— 8S. W. Allenton of Chicago, who has re- turned from a trip through the corn belt, telegraphed Wall street: “The corn, wheat and oat crops in Nebraska are the finest I ever saw in any State in tits Union. In Kansas and Missouri the corn crop is immense. The corn cropin lowa is good but late. Silks have all turned black, and a light frost will not hurtit, buton the contrary would do it good. Central Lilinois has the finest crop of corn in ten years. In iact, crops of all kinds are simply immense in quautity and of excellent qual- ity. Don’t forget my prediction, made long ago, ot a two-thousand-inillion-bushel corn crop.”’—— T. Walsingham Carter trades under the rules of the Leagus, and P. Peregrine Ferguson under the rules of the American Association. Consequent- ly, T. Walsingham Carter can make two trades to P. Peregrine Ferguson’s one. as T. Walsingham Carter takes everything on the fly, while P. Pere- grine Ferguson waits to take them on the bound. ——It is said that considerable long wheat was sould in London yesterday at a sacrifice, the same having been heid off the market for sometime pre- vious. A meinber of a leading St.Louis commiss- jon firm said yesterday: ‘We would like to see the future of wheat through bull glasses, but the follow- ing figures rather discourage our attempting to do so: During last October cash wheat sold at 901,c, and the largest stocK we had on any one day was 560,000. To-day, October wheat is sell- ing 13 to 14c higner—at $1 04, and our stock amounts to 2,100,000, withno prospect of an ex- port movement, for our Liverpool bids are only lige higher than one yearago. We think wheat is doomed to a lower level.” Atchison, Kan., wires E. M. Samuel that the weather is moderate, no frosts reported in the West and corn crop good.

The weg was not large, but buyers had few orders, and they had made up their minds to fill them at as low a figure as they possibly could. Asa result, it was late before an understanding could be arrived at, salesmen hoid- ing out strongiv for better prices than buyers were willing to accede. During the earlier hours busivess was confined entirely to butchers, who paid $5@5 15 for really g and toa buyer fora Cincinnati house, who paid $4 75 for good mixed ackers. At this time $5 10 was the best bid for Vork hogs, but finding sellers wouid not accept, it was raised and sales made at a range from $5 15@5 20. At chese figures the movemen: was slow, as salesmen were using their best endeavors to obtain $5 25 if possible, but they were not very sanguiney con- sidering the limited number of orders. “But,” says one, “Chicago will settle lt; should advices rove favorabie we will more than likely get it. Btherwise we will have to be satisfied and con- sider ourselves fortunate if we don’t have to take less.” Ati0a. m. the supply was reduced but little, trading was slow, and prices ruled about as follows: Yorkers $5 15@5 20; rough mixed pactk- ing $4 a4 49; good mixed packing $450a@4 75; butchers’ good to choice $5@5 10.

Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. GALLATIN, September 6.“No one dreamed fora moment thatthe jury inthe Frank dames case would reach a verdict at all, and when, upon the assembling of court at 4 o'clock this afternoon, the Sheriff announced that the jury had agreed upon a verdict, there was at first a feeling of deep surprise, and then word passed that the verdict must surely bea conviction for murdet in the first or second degrees. The same large audience Which had listened to Wallace’s grand effort of - the morning re- turned to hear the outcome. The ladies, who have been in faithful at- tendance since the first day, occupied all the seats on the stage. Sheriff Crozier brought the defendant in, followed by the faithful little wife. He was as cold and calm as ever, and was, to appearances, the least ¢on- cerned man of ail that throng. The sus- pense of the little wife was painful All color had left her face. Her lips were closely pressed together, but her hands were en- ed in twisting a handkerchief into arope. harles P. Johnson, Col. Phillips, Mr. Rush nd Mr. Alexander took their usual seats. The State was alone represented by Mr. Hamilton, the Prosecuting Attorney of the county. A most painful silence prevailed as the jury filed in with the bailiffs, looking as wise and soiemn as jurorsalways do when bringing ina verdict. When they were seated Judge Goodman asked the / Aboud Mr. Richardson, *“‘Have you a verdict?” “We have,” said he, as he arose and handed it to the court. FRANK JAMES TURNED HI8 EYES upon the Judge and peered as though he might read his fatein advance. The wife dro}ped her eyes to the flocr and seemed to await the biow. ‘“‘We, the jury, find the de- fendant, Frank James, not guilty as charged in the indictment,” read the Judge, in a slow and distinet voice. The risouer never changed expression. His wife’s color returned and her eyes filled with tears’ So great was the surprise, that for an iastant the throng seemed w be dumb and paralyzed. ‘Then there was a demonstration in the au- dicnee; forty or fifty people, perhaps, ap- plauding. Luther James of Kansas City threw his. hatin the air. The Judge stern- ly checked the applause, and reprimanded the young man who had thrown his hat in the air. A well-dressed lady, of middle-age, whom Mrs. James did not know, made way to her side and seizing the little lady about — waist, raised her in the air three times an KISSED HER ON THE FACE. . Frank James accepted the congratulations of his counselin an unemotional inanner and never spoke to his wife. Charles P. John- son’s face was wreathed in smiles. The people of Gallatin, the first shoek over, be- gan to discuss the verdict in no friendly ‘Lhe sheriff pounded vainly for order for several minutes, During the confusion, it Was agreed by the counsel on both sides, that the indictments for the killing of Con- ductor Westfall at Winston, and for the kill- ing of Capt. Sheets in 1869, would be laid over until the October term. ‘The jury was then discharged and it is noticeable that they lost no timé in leaving for their homes in the county, for itisa iact that not one of the jurors live in the pretty little city of Gailatin. Frank James was returned to his cell, where AN OVATION OCCURRED. Old Mrs. Sauiueis was not iu’ the court-room wen the verdict was returned, but the news was carried over to the little frame house across from the jail, where she was in wait- ing. The news of the acquittal of her son affected her strangely, for she ran out on the street, and, wavigg her one arm above hér head, cried out with sarcastic emphasis as she ran, “‘Hurrah for Wallace! Hurrah for the bloodhound that has been whipped!’ Then she went over to the jaii and hugged her son, and wept anu lauglied and behaved in an altogether histerical manner. When your correspondent called at the jail there were ten or fifteen visitors. The mother sat on one side gazing proudly at the son whom she loved, and the wifé was nestled by his side, hoiding oneof his thin, almost trans- parent Hands between both of hers, while the jittle boy played with his biocks on the floor, completing THK FAMILY GROUP. None but friends and acquaintances were admitted, ‘ihe prisoner got _heart- iiv tired of being on ex hii bi- tion like a museum curiosity whiie in the Idependence jail, and Sheriff Crozier, since his incarceration at Gallatin, has re- spected his feelings In that respect. On the tabie in the cuomivortablé cell were fully a dozen bouquets, sent in after the verdict. A young lady friend ef Sirs. James was busy writing teiegrams te parties in Missouri and Kentucky, anuouncing the acquittal, which she signed “A nie Jauies.”” Frank wasina talkative mvod, and while I was there he freeiy discussed the ineidents of the trial. and particuiarly the arguments. His- eoun- se! had made fine speeches, and ‘“‘the effurts of Phillins and Jolinsou deserve to live,” said he; “aud as for Waliace’s speéch this morning, 1 doubt if it was ever excelled in a court of justice. 1 had heard him ounee be- fore iw a Kausas City court, and knew that he was a strung speaker, but he eclipsed himseif to-day. It is true that he twisied the evidence in sume instances, and went a litile out of the record, but from his stand- point the speech was as fair as ‘those of lawyers generaily.’”’ “Was Lue verdict a surprise to you?” ‘By no means. I read that jury during the trial. Lsaw that they were nen who would ouly convict when satisfied beyond a reasun- abie doubt of guilt, and when teday 1 was waiting for the verdict to be read , could have staked my life on its contents. While this LITTLE LOVE FEAST was going on iu the jau, quite a different scene Was being enacied on the streets. Ih front of every business store groups gath- ered diseussing the verdict. Ateong the business mén there was but one sentiment, aud that was of deep exasperation. “If a lialf-dezen trains were to be robbed in Mis- souri to-night,” said Dr. Biatk, a prominent druggist and storekceer, “and the perpe- trators were to éstape With their booty for all iime the effect on the State’s property wuld not be s0 bad as this verdiet wili have liarfield Davis, President Yates of the Ex- change Bank, Judge Irving, Capt.

Davis and Yates, made a hasty run through the business houses, and raised the sum of $140 with whicha gold waich Was purchased to be presented him. A meet- ing of the leading citizens of the town, at which it was inteu tu present the watch, was held at Ju Mc- ‘angai’s office at half-past 8 o'clock. this evening, when Mr. Wallace, to the disap- pointment of the citizens, deciined to accept the gift, as he felt a delicacy in accepting auything in addition to the salary allowed him by jaw for the performance of his duties. His motives were appreciated, and after an interchange of coniplimentary speecies, afd some severe reflections upou the jury, it was voted to appropriate the money for thé pub- lication of Mr. Wallace’s speech.

He is to be tried at the next terin of court for the murder of West- fall at Winston, being indicted as accessory with Jesse James, The same evidence that was adduced in the McMillan case is to be depended upon. The defense say that they will make a stronger fight the next time, now conviction in the Westfall case is highly im- probable. Then there is the Sheets murder, ¥ hich occurred in It has always been known that Jesse James Was at that affair, but public opinion has been divided as to whetier his companion was Jin Andersonor Frank James. The principal eye-witness of the murder is dead, and the next mostimportant is in the far West. Itis doubtful whether the case will ever goto trial. There is an indictment waiting for Frankin Jackson County for participation inthe Blue Cut robbery. The State is said to havea strong case, but this is offset by the declarations of Dick Liddell, that. Frank was not in the af- fair. it is a fact that Frank Jaines has insisted all along that he was not in this county at the time of either the they were forced to make the defense with- out any assistance from him. prisoner escape conviction at Blue Cut, he Will then be tried for the Otterville train robbery in Cooper county, the Gad’s Hill train robbery, the robbery of the treasurer’s office of the Kansas City Exposition, and the Cape Girardeau bank, before his sur- render to the Minnesota authori- ties, where there is a dubious case against him in’ the Northfield @ifair. These cases all stand alike. While no one enter- tains a moral doubt of the presence of Frank James atall these crimes, yet the methods of the gang were such that direct identifica- tion of any one of themis next to impossible. Now fhat Frank James has been acquitted of the killing of MeMillan, his attorneys, holding that there isareasonabie donbt of conviciion in either the cases of Westfall or Sheets, will make application for bis release on bail. He will then settle down ona farm and lead an exemplary life which will favor- ably impress future juries. Opinions on the Verdict. A corps of Post-DisPatcn reporters were detailed this morning, to find out the public sentiment in regard to the acquittal of Frank James at Gallatin on yesterday. Prominent citizens of all classes were met and quizzed upon the subject, the especial object being to find out the feeling as to what the effect of the verdict would be upon the interests of the State generally. The result of the depositions will be found in the fui- lowing interviews: ON ’CHANGE the subject was considerably spoken about, although many of those seen had no desire to figure in print, for the reason that they did not wish to criticise the indingsjof a jury and a court of justice. Mr. D. P. Grier, when asked about the matter, said: “I think it is an outrage upon justice, and nothing else.” “What will be the effect upon the inter- ests of the State generally ?’’ ‘The effect will be very bad, in my opin- ion. I have not read the evidence. but my feeling is that Frank Jaines and _ the gang of which he is a imember have done the State of Missouri an amount of harm which is almost irreparable. I thought thatthe cases were clear enough against him. The feeling which will go out on account of this acquittal is that Missouri- aus sympathize with train-robbing, murder and lawlessness in general. For the interests of the State, 1 would wish that the verdict had been the other way.” Mr. J. C. MacGinnitie said: “What dol thiuk about the acquittal of Frank James, Esq. ? lt was just what 1 expected, nothing more aud nothing less. 1 did not believe that they dou'ld get a jury upin that part of the country to convict James. Weil, you see they did not. batis the whole expla- nation.” Mr. J. C. Ewaid, President of the Ex- change, did not think that he could enlighten anybudy upon the subject, one way or the otner, so he declined to “let gu’’ of whatever information, o inions. conciusions, or im- pressions he might have on the topie. Mr. Joseph Pritchard said, in answer to the same question: “‘L have not read the evi- dence in the case, so you will see that I do not know much about the merits of the tria! or the acquittal. But, I tell vou one thing, there is nv doubt in my mind that Frank James Was on the head set at that same liltie tea party at Winston.” Mr. Michaei McEnnis, when questioned, said: “Ilsuppose he was acquitted in ac- cordance With the-law and the evidence. [t is not fair to presume otherwise. see that it will have any effect upon the State one way or the other. i never thougiit that there Was mvre lawlessness in Missouri generaliy, than there was in Massachusetts, tor instance. Our people are law-abi:ting, aud are no sympathizers, as a general rule, with law-breakers. Idonot think this ac- quittal will affect us much nore than the re- sult of any other trial.”’ Mr. A. O. Grubb said: ‘*The way I Jook at the matter is this. that therefore he was not convicted. e have no grounds, and, cousequentiy, no right to presume that the court was swayed by any feelings save those which Would grow out of the rule of law. Consequently, I think that the acquittal was brought about, not by any love which the = citizens of State have for train robbers or in the indictment against Frank James was not sustained. He wag hot convicted, be- cause the evidence was not stroug enough to convict him. Asisay, 1 think that, under the circumstances, this is the fair view to take of the subject.” Mr. Geo. Kinuksky said he had paid littie that they know the resources of the State.

McBride: “Under the cir¢um- stances and surroundings, a verdict of guilty was impossible, in my judgment.” P. N. Jones: “It was a foregone conclusion under the circumstances.” © Judge Wm. ©. Jones said: how the verdict could be esca watched the case closely, and I believe the jury’s finding was a good one. The prose- cution Was superb—the best I have ever known in the State. I don’t think the sans paeee against James will come to a rial. Mr. C. D. N. Campbell said: “I think the verdict is thatof a partisan jury. It will hurt the State in giving outsiders false opin- ions of us.’’ Mr. Sam’l Sommerville said: “The verdict is wrong. I$looked fora conviction—at the least a hung juryb—ut I never expected they would acquit him.” Citizen Fink said: “Itisa bad thing for the State. From the experience I have had, and I’ve traveled a good deal the last three years, people charge that there is but little immigration to this State because of the ban- dits here. They say that we have good soil, good mines and all that, but that life and property are not safe here. I say that itisa very bad thing for the State.” Mr. Newton Crane said: “It’s horrible. The people of this State have followed that case closel¥, wefghing the evidence on both sides so faithfully given by the newspapers, and they form a jury whose opinion should have weight.qThey are inteliigent and unprej- udiced, while the Jury at Gallatin were chosen | either because of their ignorance or their partisanship for the defendant. The result 1s a disgracé to the State. I was in Chicago last night, and when the newsboys were cry- ing out that dames had been aequitted there was great indignation at the verdict. The | general remark was, ‘Just like Missouri.’ ” Mr. James Garland said: “I heartily dis- approve of the verdict, it makes me angry to think of it. I have lived here for twenty- five years, all I have in the world is in Mis- souri and the anticipation of what the worid will say of the people of the State is painful and aunoying to me. “T don’t see d.

Said to be Buying Chouteau Avenue Property. Citizens and property-owners in those sec- tions of the city which lie immediately north and south of Chouteau avenue are very reason- ablye xercised just now over the manifestly foreshadowed intentions of the Iron Mount- ain Railway Company to become the sole pro- prietors of all the real estate situated on either side of Chouteau avenue from Fourth street to the Union Depot. The St. Louis and San Francisco Company have also in- vested heavily in reali estate in the same sec- tion of the city, their latest purchase being the Wainwright Brewery property on Ninth and Cerré streets, the buildings and ground formerly oc- cupied by the Christian Brothers’ College, adjoining the Wainrieht property on the east and the old McDoweil College, just south of the Christian Brothers’ College, and in the. same block. The ’Friseo Company will convert these properties into a mam- moth freight depot. Itis against the Iron Mountain Company, however, that the pop- ular indignation of the Chouteau avenue dis- trict is especially hurled. The company now has adepotat Fourth street and Chouteau avenue forthe accommodation of its local passenger traffic, but it has always sighed for direct communication with the Union Depot, and it proposes to obtain that ecom- munication by the purchase of all the prop- erty along the route from Fourth street to the Union Depot. The following is a list of the property already parcheees: The Kendall-Bay!e Cracker ‘factory in the northwest corner of Fourth and Chuuteau avenue; the large building of the St. Louis Warehouse Compamy, on Fifth and Chouteau avenue; the St. Louis Trunk Manufactory on Fifth and Papin streets: a vacant lot adjoining the trunk factory on the north, which belongs to the Wa!ker heirs of New York; the house and lot of Ernst Wagner on ‘the northeast curner of Sixth and Papip streets; six houses in Walker’s row on Sixth = street between Papin and Gratiot streeis. These omg ge x have been made fominaily ih, D. K. Furguson, president, and R. R. utchison, cashier, respectiu.ly of the Me- chanics’ Bank, but the real purchaser was the Iron Mountain Company. Negotiations are pending for the purchase in the same interest of the property of Mr. Sylvester Chouteau ‘and Mrs. Cvorinne C. Dyer and that of Marquard Foster, all on the west side of Sixth street, near Chouteau avenue. A well-known firm of German real estate agents is said to have purchased for the railroad company the property of Mrs. Lovise Mavon, situated on the west side of Sixth street, near Gratiot, and the same firm is said to have made an offer to Mrs. Mavon for her three houses, Nos. 605, 607 and 609 | Gratiot street, ‘also in process of negotiation. The .real es | tate firm of Lancaster & Tiernan are said to be trying to secure the property on the west side of Seventh street and on the east side of Eighth streets, between Cerre and Gratiot streets, for the Iroh Mountain Company. It is apparent from the foregoing statement when the Iron Mountain Company shall have purchased all the property mentioned 'it will have an almost unbruken line of own- ‘ership tronyr Fourth street to Ninth street, 'and its entrance into the Union Depot is aimost an accomplished fact. It is prubabie | that, having secured company will the Fourth street. tion of the Poplar street track nuisance wil | consequentiv ensue. Ah indignation meéet- ing to discuss all phases of the question is openly talked of. POLICEMEN’S STRIKE. Refusing to Watch Until Paid—Court Notes—East St. Louis. The jury in the case of Archie Hamilton | ¥s. Moulton & Sons returned a verdict this morning in favor of Hamilton for $300. Ham- iiton was employed by Moulton as a carpen- ter on Elevator B., north of the bridge.

Fpecial Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. WasuinaTton, D. 0., September 4—As I came in sight.of the depot, I heard the loco- motive sitriek and the bell ring, and saw the train move slowly away; and 1 realized the blank prospect before me of four hours in Annapolis, and nothing to do. I have always believed that there is no piace, no matter how dull and flat it may seem, that has not something of interest attaching to it; and having missed the train I decided not rs, gp the opportunity of finding out the points of interest inand about Annapolis. Ouneof the oldest cities of our country, in the eolonial and revolutionary period, Annapolis was a gay and busivess city. . When New York only extended north to Reade street, and the center of aristocracy hung close to Bowling Green; when in Phila- delphia to be on Sveond street, near Vine, was to be outside the city limits; when Baiti- more was Charles Calvert's cabbage garden: when the city of Washington was the farm of Old Burns, whom Washington wrule of as ‘‘the obstinate Mr. Burns,” and who, whien badgered to sell by the father of his country, asked him, curtly, “What you be if you hadn’t married the W dow Curtiss?” Be- fore the days when Burns’ son-in-iaw, J. P. Van Ness, rodein his yellow coach drawn by four horses, and gave diuners to “Old Hicw«ory”’ which were as much talked of as the Vanderbilt dinners are to-day; be- | fore ail ihat Annapolis Was tie metropolis of Maryland. ‘ihe home of sump- tuous extravagance, sv lavish was the ex- penditure gf the beaux and belies of the period, that a Freneh officer, writing honie, said he had never seen it equaled even in aris. One lady paid her wuair dresser a thousand pounds, twenty-five hundred dol- lars about, a year, for his tonsorial services. in those days Annapolis was the belle of coloniai cities. Now she is passe, and sits lonely and desolate, an old maid, among her younger sisiers, Who have grown up and outrivaied her. ‘Tu-day Annapolis is tat, dull, colorless, Cau uly seent be exhaled from a faded bouquet? At least it is worth trying. L had seen the Navai Academy the center of aitraction at Anpapolis, and had climbed la- voriously to the top of the dome of the Capi- to! building.

A very curfous incident vecarred a few days since, in connection with a dozen oid muskets, which A. D. Adams Post, G. A. R., of Lyons, purchased of the United States Government. It seems that, at the begining ot the civil war, among the volunteers from Lyons was a young man named Charlies Dunn. He went into the army and served well, He was seriously wounded at bull Run, and later died in the hospital at Alex- andria, Va. From the time of this injurv on the battlefield nothing was seen of him or his personal effects by his friends, and only the published records told them of his death among strangers. Last week the muskets purebased by the Adams Post arrived, They were being looked over one afternoou, during the soldiers’ encampment at Sodus Point, by Homer J. Dunn, a brother of the dead soldier, when one of the patty noticed two large letters, C. D., carved upon the butt of the gun. Attracted by the letters, a closer examination of them showed the full name, “Chas. Dunn,” carved tess plainiy upon the wood. Other carvings about the guu-stock, which are well remembered by his intimate companions in the war, convinced ail who knew Dunn that the musket was hiss His brother has compared the earving on the musket with other carvings about his old home, and finds them very similar. Con- sidering the hundreds of thousands of simi- lar muskets seattered over hundreds of battlefields, and the insmense number stolen and solid during the war, itis, Indeed, strange that this gun shouid have found its way back to the home of its dead owner, and to the very Grand Army of the Republic Post of which the only brother of the deceased is amember. The Adams Post has formerly presented Homer Duun with the musket, of whici a number of photograps bave been taken and distributed about Lyons.

It wasa lonely little house, and Aunt Prim lived in it—a lonely littie house tucked under the pines, with its green-eyed palinus staring down the road and its baek yard jammed against the mountain: Some woinen havea talent for growing old. Aunt Prim looked asif she had been born so—as if, some way. nature had varied her usual routine and quarried her out, or dug her up, or rained her down, or—— song atid narrow, like Barbara Allen’s grave, was Aunt Prim, with frostbitten hair and a face that luoked like the brown, with- ered kernel of a nut. Her cheeks were ditched with wrinkies that crawled in ana across each other like tangled threads, and there were lines about her mouth that Time could never have drawn there without call- ing Trouble to his aid’ ‘rouble! If Miss Pamela Burton could have catried her woes to market and sold’ them hér wealth would have rivaled that of the diamond-crested Princess of .Bagdad, who ordered fried angels for tea! Jack alone, as a salabie affliction, was worth his weight in nuggets. Andas to Jack’s dear friends! Not that she would for one inhuman min- ute have dreamed of trading off her scape- grace, for all hecame home regularly irregu- jar with twists in his ankles and ungodly words that ought to have but did uot, blister his tongue, for he was not the only son of that only sister under the gay weeds of a Kentucky churchyard, and did he not bear the name of that otier Jack at the bottom of the everlasting seas? There comes a Jack cf some sort into most women’s lives, and Aunt Prim had never forgotten the blue-tlannel-clad lover who had gone down to the seain a ship that in its turn had gone down under itinastorm. He was the one shipping mark in her youth, and death had loved it. Poor Aunt Prim! Then after many drab-colured years, Jack had cowe into her life. A jad when he scaw- pered off to spade up a fortunein these West- ern hills, she found him a iad still, for all he towered above her like the pines and his hair Was gray as granite. Found him half dead and wholly disgust- ed, with his fortune sill under ground anid himself so very nearly so that being white and womanish witli the fever, he hag cluny to her like a child that fears the dark; and she, having notuing better to do with ier life, had carried him away from the little mov of atown huddled up on the hillside and took him home and adored hitn. If in this progressive world thére breathes a woman strong-minded enough to overcome her weakness tur prodigais, Aunt Prim had yet to profit by her illustrious exampie—and a prodigal witha dimvle in his chin! “Aunt Prim,” he said,one wintry night, as he watched her whisking about the fire wit. her steak potatoes and tea—fum Jack was always friendly with the teapot when he wasn’t wiid with whisky—"“‘it must be no end of dreary here where lam on the tear: why don’t you get married?” ‘The eyes that Miss Pamela Burton turned on her nephew looked like the taste of sassa- fras tea. “If it wasn’t for them gray hairs.of yours I'd answer that question with my slipper— marry indeed! Iifit wasthe likes of you no— a? She had said something rash—she guessed it by the way the red came swimming up in his cheeks; she was sure of it by tne suspi- cious conduct of that demoralizing dimple. “seems @s if your mind was imade up handy enough without my pitehforking the idea into your head. I don’t say a nice girl wouldn’t be a God’s biessing to me—for it is dreary—but such trash as Viows about Shap- tyville, miners’ eiris and dancing jacks and the like——” ‘She isn’t a miner’s girl,” persisted the Prodigal indignantly. “Then she’s a dancing jack, which is worse!” ‘Draw it mild, old lady,” he said, planting himself at the table and pa _ronizingiy pat- ting her on the head, ‘“‘you are sainpling the best brand ever bottied—she does dance, that’s a fact, and sings like—well, 1 just wish you could hear her sing!” “Jack Burton!” exclaimed his ancient brown relative, iu the most uncompromis- ingly virtuous tones, ““‘when I broke up the old home in Kentueky and foliowed you here to—to—this, l allowed to suffer and maybe to die with a redskin’s hatchet in my brain, but I did not caicuiate to disgrace my old age kicking up shinesin a dance-imuse !”’ As if he hadever hinted such a thing! But that was just like Aunt Prim, and Aunt Prim was just like every other woman in the world! “So you won't callon Polly?’ demanded the Pr: ligal, anxiously. “No, | won't cali on Pollv, and if she dares to call on me just let ber—that’s ali!” = = _ * * » 7 Lonely! There was the black world all around her, and the big, solemn mountain, with its hushed cries and echoes of the night. There were the dismal pines shvoting up to- ward the stariess sky, and there was Jack— at least that was where Jack ouglit to have been, but Aunt Prim being resigned to these nightly excursions tu the giddy metropolis of Shaniyville, was just seating herself to dream comiortabiy of wildeats and Indians, when there came a sudden and terrible knocking at the jiouely littie door. Wildcats and Indians! Miss Pamela Bur- ton had never pictured anything quite so biood-curdiing as that knock, knock, knock- ing at her door. But there it Was and there it kept up until, white and quivering, she crept to tie Key-) hole and caiied in the faintest of voices “Who's there?” “A woman,” A woman! Aunt Prim was amatch fora woman any duy, but this was night—a dark night on a desoiate road—and, as discretion is really better than valor taken ail around, Miss Bartoa resorted to the keyhole and cried out in a triflefmore vaiorous tone: “Go away—<didn't see your coat tails through a chink in the door——?” then something fell outside, alow moan crept into Aunt Prim’s ear with such pitifel distinctness that she unbarred her fortress and found her lying there—a woman, indeed, with sealed eyes and streaming hair, ail in a heap on the step. ‘To drag her in and rebdoit the was chiid’s piay to an ener- savior tike Aunt Prim, and when at @ stage coach into such Kindiy the di tic old soul had remem- Snantyville and its Poliy, aud ae- arms, bered her share toward upsetting It had been a diema! day, and Nature, after her eyes out, was sobbing herself to he prodigal’s months! shrimps! - word, — her, should she take a notion to grow restlese and hail another stage coach for that schoul among the hills.

I can’t help loving you,” she said, putting her hand on his shoulder, ‘and because you were serry for tee girl who waited and hoped and mourned her lover in bis honest grave, Ll forgive you both. I—Il— ain guing to bed now; good night, Jehal Good night, Polly!’ Aud to save their lives they never could guess how Aunt Prim had found out about the dancing jack from Shantyville, and of course she never told them. WHERE LEMONS COME FROM, The Mode of Shipping Them and the Prices Which They Bring. From tne Boston Globe. “A few of this year’s crop of Malaga lemons have already arrived,” said a Quincy market dealer afew days since, “But,” he continued, “they are very green and have to be ripened here.” “Where does the greater of our Boston supply of lemons come from?” queried the reporter. ‘Nearly all we get here are brought from Napies, Palermo, Kodi, Sorrento and Mes- sina. A small quantity is received from South America and aiso from Jamaica. The best lemons we. receive, however, are frum Fiorida, because in the first place they are naturaliy fine truit, and in the second place the distance they have to come is, com- paratively speaking, so short that they ar- rive in perfect condition.” ; “How are the fureigu lemons transported ere?” ‘ihe usual way is by sending them in steamers around by way of Liverpool. Deal- ers in lialy buy lemons from the growers, aud take their chances in the American market, shipping them here for sale by auction. Their value depends entirely upon their quality and the supply in the market. lo-day they may be svold for $1 per box while two days hence they may bring as high a@ price as $14 or $15 per box. “I suppose money is very frequently lost in lemons brought here?’ “Yes, indeed, Why, even excellent ones sometiives do bot bring at auction enough w pay the freight upon them.” **tlow are lemons selling at present?” “The pew Malaga lewons bring from $3 to $5 per box. The size of the boxes varies, and hold 400, 450 or 500 lemons. The best lemons just now are worth $6 per box.”’ Ee long Will lemons keep in this cll- mate? “Some soft, juicy ones will not keep more than 4 muntii, ho matter how carefully they are looked after, while others that are firm aud hard wili keep for four months. Mes- sina ietnons areas arule the best to keep, Paiermos rank next, and the poorest, as a general thing, are from Naples.” “is there any truth in the story that lem- ons are ripened and colored by artificial heat and sulpher fumes ?”’ “Very litte, 1 believe,” was the reply. “The semon starts from home green and hard, but the paper in which it is eyo ripens it so rapidly that by the time it sale at retail its coat is a fine yellow, and it as juicy asif it had ripened on the tree.

Norton Discourses on Matters European. —_ His Impressions of Spain, France, Italy, Ger- many, Holland and England—Irving’s Pe culiarities—The Thrifty and Ciéanly Hol- landers—American Theaters Far Ahead of European. John W. Norton, the popular manager of thy allied theaters, with his wife, returned from a protracted visit to Europe this morn- ing. Mr. and Mrs. Norton left St. Louis on the 20th of May and sailed for Liverpool from New York a few days later. Both are look- ing the better in health for their trip and are warm in their expressions of pleasure at their return to St. Louis. A Post-DIsPATCH reporter called upon Mr. Norton this morn- ing for the purpose of obtaining a talk about matters theatrical and otherwise. His re- ception was as cordial as could be desired and every one of his questions were answered with as much promptness and candor as the most rigid inquisitor could Gesire. = “We had a delightful passage over,” said Mr. Norton in reply to the firstinterrogatory. ‘“‘After a day or two in London we sailed for Lisbon, and thence we proceeded to Gibral- tur, and across the Mediterranean to Tangier. Returning, we made the tour of Spain ina leisurely manner, stopping longest at Madrid, which, by the way, is a lovely city.” ‘Did you attend any performances at the Spanish theaters ?”’ “No; for they were mer season.” = “What are your impressions of Spain ? “That it is a pleasant country. I can speak of it onlyin general terms, however, my stay there not having been long enough to enable me to make an exhaustive study of the country.”’ “Did you attend a bull-fight?” “No; that sensation was denied me, for there were none while I was in Spain.” “And France?” ’ “Oh, we did France, too, but only in a cur- sory manner. We werein Paris for quite a while, however.” “Were the theaters open?” “Some of them. The reigning attraction was a spectacular piece cailed ‘Peau d’Aine,’ in Engtish, ‘The Ass’ Skin,’ which was very gorgeous. The French thea- ters, like allthe European theaters that-I saw, are stuffy, vld-fashioned affairs that cannot hold a va.dle - alongside of a first-class American theater. The ‘Comedie Francaise,’ that very much cracked-up institution, is as bad as the rest of them.” ‘‘Aud Sara Bernhardt?” “She was notin Paris while I was there, so I did not see her.” “You went through Italy, of course?” “Ohwes, and we were on the island of Ischia 2 few days before the earthquake. ‘Those Italian islauds are geuuine Edens of loveliness. Wedroppedin at Pompeii, and from what we saw oi that buried city 1 can iurm atolerably accurate idea of the hor- rors of Casamicciola. We were in Napies, Rome, Milan aud the other show cities of ltaly. From Italy we went through Austria and Germany, and thence to Holland.” “Pid you visit the World’s Expvusition at Amsterdam ?” “Yes, sir. The Hollanders impressed me as the most contented and prosperous peopie in Europe” Every one knows they are a thrifty and industrious people, but only a so- journ among thew: can give the traveier an idea of their extraordinary cleaniiness. Why, you could eat a meal with comfort on the sidewalks. ‘The treasures of art in the cities of Hulland are of inestimable value, aud po one who visits Europe shouid fail to make a long stay in the Netherlands.” “Is it true that in Germany strangers are subjected to a most searching police sur- veiilance?”’ Judging by my own experience 1 should say not, fur | was never once asked to show my passport.” “You reserved England for the last, ap- parently ?”’ “Yes, sir. Wewere in England for quite a while. I might as weil anticipate your question about Irving by teiliung you at once thatlsaw himin “The Lyons Mail.’ I con- sider hin a very fine melodramatic actor, but i dun’t kKaow whether the theater-goers in this country will like him, on account of his nuinerous peculiarities. Miss Eilen Terry 1s a very charming actress, and 1 think will be- come popular here.” “What are your general impressions of European travel ?” ‘I think the European railroads are superior to the American railroads. They run much more smvotily than our own roads, the depots are very much finer, and the hotels, particuiarly in the smaller cities, are far ahead of the hotels in the smaller tuwns of the United States.” “Did you meet many St. Louisans abroad ?”’ “We encountered them everywhere. Mis- souri was Weil represented in Europe this year, there being several large parties from Sedalia, Boonviile and vther interior towns.” ‘Did you have a good pussage across the Atlantic on your return journey ?” “Well, hardly. We lett Liverpool in the Germanic on the 23d of August and Queens- town on the 24th. We encountered a ter- tific hurricane on the open sea on the following day, that lasted forty-eight hours. Every one was ordered below, and wien the storm had subsided and we were permitted the freedom oi the decks once more, the scene gave us a yivid notion of the power of the storm, for almust everything haa been sweptclean, and the massive raii- ings and iron work were twisted intu a thousand eccentric shapes, as though they had been 80 many = straws. Not- withstanding the storm we made very good time, however, arriving in New York on Saturday last, eight days after we left Liverpool. Am I giad to get back? Well, I should say so.”’ ‘Are we going to have a good season in St. Louis this winter?” ‘*]| think so, decidedly,”’ was Mr. Norton’s concluding statement, “and you may say that, contrasting Europe with America in every respect, socially, politically and topo- graphically, we have the advautage in every way. all closed for the sum- A NEW MOVE, Ladies and Gentlemen Permitted to Swim Together at the Natatorium. A new departure is contemplated at the St. Louis Natatorium, which, though a nov- elty in the West, is a most ordinary occur- rence during the season at the seashore in the East and in Europe, namely, ladies and gentlemen swimming in common. The movement has been started by the ladies, a number of whom have been tanght the art of swimming, floating, diving. etc., in the limpid waters of the Natatorium, aod wish an opportunity to show their male relatives not only proficiency in the art, but to have their company as well w ile enjoying the exhilarating and heaith-giving exercise. The directors have been urged to designate some evening of each week for this purpose, and they have printed a bulletin atthe Natato- rium, setting forth the conditions on which they will comply with what seems now 2 popular demand. ‘The conditions are both simple and pru- dent. 1.

For cir- DEAR WHITEWASHING. Thé Special Committee’s Report on th Building Committee’s Contracts. The final meeting of the Committee of Seven appointed by the School Board to in- vestigate the whitewash contracts over which there has been such a riot in that body, revealed a very curious state of affairs. The usual wrangle between the friends and opponents of investigation took place, and Mr. Foerstel, in the role of prosecuting at- torney, heaped red hot coals on the Leads of the offending members of the Board. He indulged in several sweep- ing assertions, and threw out an occasional insinuation that threatened to precipitate a war. Among other things, he wanted to bring suit agianst Archibald Wil- helm on his official bond for $10,000, to re- cover any money the Board might lose by reason of the excessive rates charged in the contracts. He finally formulated his remarks into an exhibit showing that the contract for the Lyon school had been awarded at $357, when a genuine bid had been sent in offer- ing to do the work for $150. A bid for the Gravois school was awarded at $62, when the work could have been effected for $20. The lowest bid for the Granville was $12, bu: it was given toa bidder at $34, and No. 7, col- ored school, which could have been done for $12, was awarded at $38. Three bids had been received on all schools exceptin the third, fourth and seventh districts, and there were thirty schools im the city on which there were two or less bids awarded. The committee, after going into executive session, agreed to a report which, after set- ting forth that each district member was, according to the rule, to nominate three or more whiteners to b.d upon each school in his district, said: _ “We find that thirty contracts for whiten- ing schools were let on two bids, and two contracts on one bid. Your committe find that by the testimony offered in the case the adopted rule of July 15 has not, been cum- plied with; and further, itis the opinion of your cominittee that the prices charged on the following schools: Gravvis, Grand View, No. 8 Lon, Benton Station, Humboldt, Ciinton Brauch, E:iot, Laclede No. 12, Ciin- ton and No. 4are too high, and base their opinion on the foliowing iacts, viz.: ‘That we find a pumber of bids on the haids of the Buiiding Committee much lower than the bids on which the contracts were awarded, they being rejected because the bidder was not formaily invited by the district commit- teeman. ‘Lhe committee is of the opinion that the resolution of the Building Commit- tee adoptei July 15 is not in compliance with the general rules of the governmentof a pubiic institute, and is conducive, even when strictly carried out, to misconduct and over- charge for work, We therefore recommend that in future Rale 71 be strictly complied with in letting out contracts.
