WASHINGTON, May &.—There is a general feel- ing here that the House Mexican pension bill. which was favorably reported from the Senate Committee to-day, will pass that body aud be- come a law at this session. THE MISSOURI RIVER COMMISSION. The bill creating a permanent Missouri River commission was reported to the House to-day from the Committee on Commerce. It provides for the appointment of five commissioners, three members of which must come from the army, to have charge of the improvement of the Missouri, with a salary of $2,500 per year. The committee will urges this bili as preferable to the river and harbor bill pian, as the commission created by the river and harbor bill is only for one year, while the Commerce Committee’s bill is permanent and has two civil- lau members. ANOTHER TARIFF BILL. It was reported this morning that Hewitt of York is preparing a tariff bill which he thinks can be passed. Mr. Clardy said in an interview to- Gay that he did not think there would be any more attempts at tariff legislation at this session. NEW ORLEANS EXPOSITION.

At a meeting ofthe Springer Committee to-day veral of the members oi posed entering on the ellogg investigation unless they were instructed to do 80 by the House. Mr. Milliken saia “he un- derstood Kellogg would drop the matter if the committee concluded not to consid- er it,” The committee instructed the chairman to inform Kellogg that if his witnesses remained in the city they would have to do 80 at their own expense. The witnesses referred io were those brought here by Kellogg before his recent trial and afterward subpoenaed to appear before the committee. John A. Walsh was present and in- quired when the committee desired him to appear as à Witness. An intormal discussion followed relative to the testimony Walsh could give, during the progress of which Walsh said his testimony before the Grand Jury which indicted Price and Brady, and waich tailed to indict Kellogg, showed that the ex-Sen- ator “was a hundred fold more deserving indict- ment than either Brady or Price.” He said he had his papers with him when he appeared before the Grand Jury, but that body seemed to be satis- fied without examiningthem.“ Bliss was present on that occasion and said to the jury that it was a serious thing to indict a United States Senator.” The committee did not decide when Walsh would be examined. THE SENATE. The chairman laid before the Senate a House Message announcing its non-concurrence in the Senate amendments to the pleuro-pneumonia bill. The Senate insisted on its amendments,and the chair appointed as a committee of conference on the part of the Senate, Messrs.

The Senate insisted on uus amendments, and the Chair appointed as a committee of conference on the part of the Senate Messrs, Sewell, Logan and Cockrell.

Too true. — . p —ů— ͤ COMPLAINT is made that the cable roads in Chicago run over people who getin the way; itis a pity they don’t do it here. — Sr. Lovis is getting to be the City of Con- ventions. The burden of entertalning them should not rest on the shoulders of a few score enterprising citizens. — In admitting foreigners to American citi- zenship General GRANT says he would ad- mit hone whose moral character is ques- tioned. It's a pity he did not apply that test in appointing men to office. Tun defeat of the Morrison bill looks like one of those cases in which the ignorant ma- jority will have to surrender to the superior remnant; running the party onthe Mar- THEW ARNOLD plan, so to speak. — — Tris is a good time for the people of St. Louis to pay attention to the war between rapid transit and slow transit. The St. "Louis of the past is bucking very hard against the St. Louis of the future. GENERAL GRANT says he would confer American citizenship upon no foreigner who ‘Pannot speak and write the English lan- guage. And yet he would make a President of Jonx LoGan, who can do neither. Tux loss of a battle in politics is not so great a misfortune as the lossof temper over the defeat. The worshipers of the star-eyed goddess now accuse the Democrats who voted aye“ on Tuesday of being under Republican dictation. This is a good time for Democrats to keep their temper. Tue Morrison bill has been killed, but Mr. O’NEIL1 is going to introduce another tariff bill; a nach better bill, designea in the in- terests of the working classes. The coun- try will owe Mr. O'NEILL a debt of grati- tude. A session without a tariff bill of some kind, ready to pop up at a moment’s notice, would be a dreary and cheerless void, GRANT had no business going into Wall street at all, and it was almost a certainty that if he went into anything that looked like a speculation he would come out a loser. Nevertheless, the country will never consent to see him reduced or in any way humiliated pecuniarily, The bill to put him on the re- tired list will pass without any difficulty, and will probably pull through the similar bill introduced for the reilef of General FREMONT. Tur Judge Advocate General of the Army does not ‘appear to advantage in the pro- ceedings of the Court of Inquiry. It seerfis that he induced BATEMAN to advance money to Morrow on duplicated pay accounts, but that when Morrow tried to borrow money from him, he took a mortgage on Morrow’s plano. Gen. Swarm was certainly a prudent man, and evidently did not know what the morrow might bring forth. —— Tun people of this country have not been wanting in gratitude to Gen. Grant. What have they done that he should wish to make LoGan their President for seven years, with poonstitutional amendment taking the con- trol of the purse away from Congress and run the Government inde- f 2 Gen. GRANT would conform our Constita- tion to that of the late Confederate States by |. adding two or three pre years to the Presi- dont term and declaring him ineligible for @ second term. A third term for Gen. Grant elongated to seven years—but perhaps this fe hie way of announcing that he no longer bankers after a third term. Still, he has f Thus far the enterprise has been admivably managed. The directors have given their personal attention to every detail of the work, and have carried it en with the strict- est economy, and at the same time with the highest efficiency. Their management is a sufficient guarantee of the success of the scheme, and every business mar of St. Louis owes them the recognition of taking a share, or several shares, in the work. ——— THE LOG- ROLLING VETO. One of the amendments which Gen. GRANT would annex to our Constitution from that of the late Confederate States is the provision permitting the President to discriminate between the provisions of a bill, vetoing some and approving others, and making the billas amended by him a law, unless the, vetoed parts shall-be re-passed over the veto by a two-third vote in both Houses. Asasafeguard against “log-rolling”’ bills and the saddling of indispensable appro- priations with mere “tips,” some power to discriminate between the good and bad pro- visions of a bill, as well as between good and bad bills, should be left tothe Presi- dent. But it should be very carefully restricted. Already he wields more legisla- tive power than any majority less than two- thirds in both Houses. If we give him un- limited power to amend as wellas to veto any bill passed by a majority of less than two-thirds, the one man power“ will be greatly magnified and danger- ously exalted over that of the people’s repre- sentatives. The superior wisdom of the latter has been vindicated in nearly every case where a bill has been pagsed over a veto, and the will of the people shouid not be too frequently or too easily overruled in this country. The power toamend a bill by vetoing some of the provisions and approving others should be conferred on the President under the restriction that the bill, as amended by him, shall not become a law until 80 approved by a majority in both Houses, and that it shall then become a law with such of the vetoed provisions added as may be separately passed over the veto by a two-thirds vote of both Houses. This would knock out the weaker parts, and greatly discourage, if not utterly prevent, log-rolling. in legislation. At the same time it would not give the President more pewer than either one of the two Houses in amending bills, and would tend to save the better portions of a measure from a resentful rejection when returned with the President's amendments, But it will not do to make an autocrat of the President by providing that Congress shall have no further power over a bill ap- proved by him after he has amended it to suit himself, if there is no twethirds ma- jority in both Houses in favor of further amendment, The power of a bare majority in either House to reject a bilt us amended must be preserved, along wth the power of a two-thirds majority in both Houses to overrule the veto with respect to any or all of the disapproved sections of the bill. — WALL SIrREET. Over the announcement of the suspension of a small bank, with a capital of less than half a million of dollars, Wall Street got into a flurry which bordered on a panic. It turns out that one bank president had run short of money in building speculations, and one firm of brokers who dealt with the bank had got hold of stocks which they could neither keep nor let go. Thereupon Wall Street recov- ered from its flurry, but is ready to go into hysterics on slight provocation. There has been no panic, but the Wall Street shrinkage of the past twelve months has been greater than that which caused any panic this country has known. The losses run up into hundreds of millions; a great many men must be crippled and ruined, but there is no panic. VILLARD’S failure was heavier than JAY Cookx's, but it did not create a ripple in the market. The collapse of the West Shore scheme has involved heavier losses than the building of the Ohlo and Mississippi Read or the failure of the Ohio Loan and Trust Company, which brought down the panic of 1857, but the West Shore collapse ceased to be a sensation before prices touched bottom. This means that the country is stronger now than formerly. It means that business men are solvent, that business is no longer done on speculative bases, but that behigd the fluctuations of values legitimate business is protected by an im- mense reserve of actual and ayailable wealth. Over-production in the iron trade cures itself just as over-production in the clothing trade cured itself, or as the over-pro- duction of cotton goods is curing itself. But in Wall Street securities, and particu- larly in railroad securities, there has been a dry rot so serious that what is called a panic would not be much of an aggravation of It. Indeed, if some big bank were found to be as weak as the Marine Bank, or some lead- ing firm werg to fail with heavy liabilities, we might witness the spectacie of a Wall Street panic in which firms would topple against each other like a row of bricks. It would, however, be merely a Wall Street panic. It would hurt none except those who have put their faith in Wall Street. The day has gone by when the great Continental business of this country can be upheaved by a little eruption in that volcanic locality. Whether Wabash shares are quoted at five dollars or fifty, or whether Northern Pacific is at par or at zero, is of little consequence to any one except those who handle the certificates. The country is only a little bit poorer when chromos which were leaned without any yalue received are found to have no value.

THE EVENING PAPER AGAIR. Yesterday was another good day for the evening paper. The Post-DisPATCH gave its readers the first authentic news of the loss of the steamship State of Florida with its attending loss of life, and also gave tip news of the accident on the Wabash Road. It gave the news of the bank defalcation in Baltimore and of the mufder of ex-Sheriff Hanbm in Arkansas, which are the two leading items of criminal news in the morning papers. It gave the news of the meéting in St. Louis of the Association of Northwestern Jobbers and Manufacturers, and the proceedings of the various associations of railroad traffic Managers now in session in this city, and al- so of the organization of the cotton seed oil men. Our soldier boys were informed of the progress of the drill at Houston, our art connoisseurs were told of the display made by the Dousman coliécton in New ¥ork, so- ciety read of the Lipmann-Griffin wedding, and our budget of stock and market reports, cable news, etc., was in advance of morning publication as usual. Taking one considera- tion with another, the man who does not read the evening paper is, on an average, fifteen hours in each day behind the times. Brron M. CurcHreon of Manistee, who states in his biography in the Congressional Directory that he is a regent ef the Uni- versity of Michigan, should get up a school speaker, to consist of extracts from his congressional eloquence. He gave a sample of it yesterdayin his speech on the Fitz John Porter bill, in which he described the bill in the following terms: Three great Republicans were on trial—Abra- ham Lincoln, Edwin M. Stanton and James A. Garfield. No man could give a vote for this bill without damning the name of Lincoln, blackening Stanton and sending down to obloquy the last great martyr, James A. Garfield. If the name of Lincoln is to be blackened let it be by those men who fought against him in war; if Garfleld’s memory was to be blackened let it be by those men who crawled in dirt to write cabalistic figures upon door-posts in order to attack his rep- utation. What makes this language all the more remarkable is that it car allude only to Gen. GRANT aud to those Republican Senators who sent the Fitz John Porter bill down to Mr. CurcHeon for him to rend in twain. Mr. TUCKER has been guilty of no graver offense than trying to secure the construc- tion of an elevated road in St. Louis. This is not treason nor felony; it is not a crime of any kind; it is not a violation of the Consti- tution, not an infringement of the statutes, nor forbidden by municipal ordinances. Yet there is an evident disposition in certain quarters to treat Mr. TUCKER as a criminal, Really he deserves better treatment. The improvement he wishes to bring here cannot be suddenly fatal to St. Louis; it cannot Everybody knows the pros and cons of his bill. He has been remarkably straightforward and fair in introducing it, and has only asked that it should be deal with on its merits. — eo QUEEN VICTORIA and | BEATRICE have returned to England, bring- ing the Duke of Hesse-Darmstadt with them, and it is now believed that the prompt passage of the “Deceased Wife’s Sister bill” by the House of Commons on the day after their arrival has broker off the pro- posed morganatic marriage between his Ducal Highness and one of his mistresses. He has been snatched like a brand from the burning, as it were, and Madame DE KALA- MIRE, the Russian widow, must now depend on the House of Lords for the anticipated promotion. Unless that august body again defeats the bill, she will have to be content, as heretofore, with the second instead of the first place iri the Grand Duke’s affections. ——————— Tnx holding of the Cattle Convention in St. Louis next fall should bean additional reason if any were needed for pushing for- ward the work of the Exposition. The cat- tle business is now nearly as big a thing as the National Government, and a Cattle Con- -vention such as St. Louis will enjoy next fall is in every way a bigger thing than a national political convention, or even a ses- sion of Congress, Advertising in France. Special Cablegram to the Globe-Democrat. The Figayo to-day inaugurates a new era in French journalism. Our discerning contempo- rary realizes the steadily increasing public de- mand for properly classified advertisements—for advertisements so grouped that a man in a hurry can nud at the first glance what he wants, wheth- er steamship or toothpick. The Figaro now d- vides the petites annonces into twenty catego- ries, beginning with “amusements” and ending with “situations wanted.” Those persons, how- ever, who adyertise concerning town or country nouses have the right, upon payment of one franc extra, to insert a detailed description, with diagram of the house, ia the list waich is exposed gratuitously to the public at the Figaro office, Another feature of the Figaro’s advertising en- terprise is a supplementary lliustrated adver- Ptisement sheet. Illustrated advertisements are not permitted ia les petites annonces, as they would interfere with the chief object of the ad- vortiser—namely, to fod what is wanted ata glance. The Figare solves the difficulty by the “enacartage du Figaro,” a small separate sheet Gelivered in the folas of the Figaro, and contain» ing a carefully illustrated advertisement, with full expianation. For instance, the Figaro en- eartage to-day makes its debut with a Parisian tailér’s advertisement containing the latest fash- fons, and with directions that enable the customer to take his own measure and praer a suit of clothes by letter or telegram. The Figaro charges for the tllustrated advertisement 2,000f when delivered with the 30,000 copies sent regular subscribers, and 4,000f _ r the Princess public on both sides of the Atiantic have found out that as à rule high-priced advertising medi- ums are cheapest in the end, but the Figaro’s prices cannot fail to suggest a comparison. The maximum circulation of the Figaro is 80,000 copies, and it charges t or 81 20 a line for ordina- ry advertisements. Darmstadt Nobility. . Labouchere in London Truth. 8 I was once an attache to the Legation which was accredited to the extinct German confedera- tion that used to sit at Frankfort. The Legation Was also accredited to the Grand Duke of Darm- | stadt, and two or three times a year we had to go over to Darmstadt to fieure at @ State ball. I re- member that I was at first somewhat astonisled to remark that the guests arrived in coveys, until it was explained to me that as none of His Serene Highness’ subjects had carriages it was the kindly habit of the potentate when he gave a ball to send a conveyance round the town and pring his guests by omnibus loads. I still think with awe and reverence of these august creatures, Every one of them was noble, for none but nobles were regarded as fitting guests for the Grand Ducal fetes. The Minister in whose suite I went was, it was known, fond of whist, and it was felt that an English diplomatist could hardly de ex- pected to play the game for less than florin poluts (is. 8d.). Such stakes, however, the fortune of no Darmstadt nobleman could stand. A sort of joint purse was therefore formed, which was intrusted to the three best whist players ot the Grand Ducal Court, and these champions encountered the Englishman, It was amusing to watch the auxiety depicted on all countenances. When the Mipister won all was gloom; when he lest Counts and Countesses, Barons and Baronesses skipped about in high glee like the hills of the Psalmist. Stock Transactions Privileged. Interview With Rufus Hatch, “Well, really, I am so busy with my own can- vass that I dou’t have much time to giye to these outsiders. I noticed, however, that they are makinga raidon both Eamunds and Blaine, on the score of some old stock transactions. I think this is infamous. Supposing somebody should undertake to bring up, my twenty-two years of dealing in Wall street. Perhaps it would upset my canvass. It is not fair to rake up any man’s Wall street record, particularly when he is busy running for the Presidency. Further than that, I don’t think any man, however humbie in life he may be, should ever be calledon to explaina stock transaction. It is against public decency. A safe ruie in regard to ali Wall street transac- tions is to forget them—ifyou can. I know I should like to forget some of my own specula- tions, but some people have more useful memo ries than others. Ihave heard of cases where men actu ally forgot where they had leit a whole set of books.“ Logan’s Joke. Interview with Rufus Hatch. Now as to Gen. Logan. I don’t think Logan 18 a serious candidate. That is, Idon’t think any- body but Logan himself thinks seriously of it. Indeed, I don't think he does. Jack Logan can appreciate a joke as well as anybody, and I think he appreciates this one of his own candidacy. I think he is simply making a big noise in order to boom his own chances when he com es to look for re-election as Senator next year, Then there is John Sherman. He is a very able man, and he comes from a very able State. But to tell you the truth, I am about tired of Ohio furnishing all our Presidents for us. You know that with my strong opposition te corners of every kind, I cannot be otherwise than strongly opposed to giving any State a corner on the White House. Ohio might just as well annex the District of Columbia, or move the White House up to their own State capital. I propese togive some other State a chance, POLTICAL DRIFT.

While fishing for bass, was the President also fishing for delegates? HERE is a political curiosity: The Springfield (Mass.) Republican says that a $300,000 Govern- ment bullding is not needed in that city. Ir is said that New York Democrats are 80 anxious to make a New York man President that many of them would go for Arthur. CaN the country afford to make Mr. Blaine President this year? When it has a navy as big as England's and an army as big as Germany's it may do to think about it, says the Chicago Times. DANIEL MANNING bas sent circulars in the in- terest of the candidacy of Governor Cleveland for the Presidency to all the counties of New York State, but he nas not yet received many enthus- lastic responses. Tun Galesburg Press and People says: “If Logan fails to be nominated at Chicago, or fails to get the Lilinois delegation, then Oglesby and the rest of the ticket may as well hang up their fiddies, for Iilinois will go Democratic.” THE Boston Post (Dem.) says of the tndorse- ment of Butler by the Democrats of Massachu- setts: It will do harm to mention General But- ler at Chicago. Perhaps it will be the quickest way in which to dispose of his groundiess pre- tensions.” TuE Lowell (Mass.) Mall does not believe Gen- eral Butier has any intention of attending the Chicago Convention, but thinks the plan is for his alternative, Mr. Paimer, to go and present the General’s claims for the Presidential nomina- tion. Ina recent speech Julius Oasar Burrows of Michigan, whom President Arthur tried to make Solicitor of the Treasury, said: “The Repubiic- ans of Michigan propose to retire the present Admluistration, conceived in political debauch- ery and iniquity, and give it a free pass up Salt Creek.“ Tue well-informed Boston correspondent ef ‘the Martford (Conn.) Courant (Rep.) says; “The sensation of the week in Boston is the sudden bursting into prominence of the tariff-reform movement. I use this expression advisedly, for it has appeared in the manner of an explosion in its effects upon most of the community, It was known that liberal views upon the subject of the tariff had deen «aifiing greatly here within the last two years.

By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New York, May 8—The WoRrupD says: “The sinking of the State of Florida in mid-ocean is both a horror and a mystery. That she collided with a bark in what was presumably foggy weather will account for the accident, But how can we account tor the sinking of a modern steamship, built with every appliance of safety that science and foresight could supply, including water-tight bulkheads, in so swift a manner that out of 167 passengers 123 were drowned? Later news will of course, throw some additional light on this dreadful catastrophe, but one cannot avoid the suspicion at this time that there was some criminal oversight somewhere.

The taciturn and good natured ex-Brown Stocking’s versatility is well known, as it was well applied locally during the strange season of 82, which was disastrous to so many of the St. Louis nine, and Brown was the quiet, un- complaining man of all work. He did his best yesterday, but bis best could not prevent the St. Louis men from hitting bim all over the field, they making nineteen hits with a total of twenty- five bases; this coupled with tie fact that at rlant and center field no less than ten flies were capt- ured by the Toledo. Tue Browns hada day of magnificent flelding ’ pratice, as McGinniss only pitched slows, thus viowin the Toledo men to hit viciously, which they did, only four men being put out behind the bat—an unusually small number with Mac. On the other hand, the slashing hitting was attended to m grand ry bw by Latham, Gleason and Quest, they retiring between them, or rather ete § a hand in the retiring of twenty men, Comiskey fill- ing first base superbly. Dolan caught a flae game and the outfield was excelient. The St. Louis fielding is as near perfection as attain- et by any club ever placed on à ball fieid and their shutting out the Toledos yesterday was a more than creditable display, all things considered. Tne final score was 16 to 0. The attendance was remarkable considering the state of the weather, there being a turnstile count of 870 admissions. The interest manifest- ed in the welfare and success, of the St. Louis club this year is unprecedented, Yesterday's Games. The rain interfered badly with base-ball at sev- eral points yesterday, and but a small proportion of the contests scheduled were played. So, while St. Louis is apparently faring badly,she is having more than her share of good luck, baving lost but one day as yet in her champlonship series, and his morning of fine weather veg id ah 1 weds will be by all odds the best yet piayed here. At Pittsburg the Mets gave the Alleghenies a bad trouncing, beating them by a score of 8 to 1 The Bostons turned the tables on Buffalo at Boston, beating the bison team of? a score of 1 to 0. Five innings only were play The St. Louis-Ohicago Reserve team series is proving unusually E in Chicago, and is producing good bali. The Chicagos won yester- day by ascore ot 6 to 0. A Postponement. The annual meeting for 1884 of the Missouri Btate Sportsmen’s Association, which was to have taken place at Kansas City May 19, is for the present off. Tnis postponement, a similar one to which has before been experienced in the history of the association, is due ertirely to the inability to procure the necessary appurtenances—the wild pigeons. The combined efforts of scouts and others inteyested in maaking the meeting a suc- cess have deen fruitless in endeavors to secure the giddy birds, and in consequence the meeting will vot take place until the one thin essential—the pigeons—has been In speaking of the matter this morning, Mr. William A. Albright said: “The flight of wila pigeons has been something remarkable this year, and their romney any one locality has been very short. For the past two years no difficulty hus been experienced in securing them iu large quantities throughout Missouri, the Indian Terri- tory, Southern Kansas aud Northern Arkansas. One gentieman who came in from Southern Kan- das a few days since said he never saw such a remarkable scarcity of birds. com- with the great abundance of the past couple of years. Last year their nests were as thick as appies on trees,and the birds were gathered by wagon loads.“ “To what do you attribute this change of lo- only was asked. „Well. the 1 of food seems to be the most important point in their flight. There is little or no mast, acorns, etc., in these States, and the birds have gone to more congenial climes. The prevalence of:high water has destroyed a greater — of the mast, and the birds have gone to ennsyivania and Michigan. I’ve just heard that they . have gone silll farther north into Canada, and = of course, that setties our chances for holding a convention until time later in the summer, We will, uo doubt, have a meeting, but not for some weeks to Secretary Van Horn, of Kansas City, of the Btate Association will send notices outto the different eluds and members, notifying them cf the inabilily t) meet May 19, owing entirely to the causes above enumerated.

A Union Line street car going north on Sixth street yesterday afternoon was boarded at Wash- ington avenue by a passenger who stumped in on one wooden leg and one good leg. The weoden limb was of a decidedly primitive pattern, and when its owner seated himself in the middle of the car it barricaded the aisle. Shortly after reaching a comfortable position the newly embarked pas- senger deposited his fare in the box, At Frank- lin avenue the bobtail filled, and in kindly consid- eration for the man the ladies discommoded themselves by 8 seats and climbing over the moveable fence. hen the car started on its wav again the owner of the artificial leg pro- duced a sheet of legal cap which he handed to each passenger in turn. It read as follows: James McVay the bearer met with a misfortun- ate acksident and nad the loss of losing his leg. He is now collecting to purchase an artifisbal leg. 1 Appended to this were the names of several generous, dut robably mythical, peo- ple, with various small sums of money opposite their names. The petition was handed toanold gentleman inthe corner who had been disturbed in reading his paper. After glancing over the paper he looked at the applicant for charity for a moment and drawing K his head said: “Tit get you a job and you needn’t beg.“ “What doing?“ asked the beggar. “Blowing down dead walls with that breath of yours. McVay looked at the supposed benefactor for à Moment, evidently surprised. „Tou wouldn't like that job, may be?” “No,” grunted the man. “Weil, I'u use my influence to get tract to blast rock in a quarry. that?” The poor man, who was breathing away the vol- atile properties of whisky at a high rate, was someWhat discouraged with the results, but the old gentleman had gone on to knock the drunken beggar out, A young mau who stood on the step smoking a Cigarette entered the car to pay bis fare, when the crusty old nt excitedly ex- claimed, ‘‘My son, throw that fire out the window or we'll have an explosion here!“ At the next corner Mr. McVay, the victim of the “misfor- tunate” accident, jumped from the step without going to the trouble of ringing the bell. ou s COn- ou can do Brown's Bronchial Troches for Coughs and Colds: “The only article of the kind which has done me good ser .

The Country Democracy Refuse to Obey a Part of It. _ — mn 4 Number of Counties Already Heard From— How the Democrats in St. Louis County Feel About It—Interview With One of the Indignant Voters. There are indications that the Democracy of the State is disposed to administera reproof to Mr. O’Day for his very bold endeavor to assume the functions of a dictator to the party, and to re- ming him that, save as to the particular preroga- tives accorded him asa member of the Central Committee, he isne more entitied to considera- tion than any other railroad lawyer. When, on a most liberaland unwarranted interpretation of the committee’s order requiring him to calla delegate convention and a nominating convention, he presumed to determine for the respective counties of the State the time at which the dele- gates to each convention should be elected, every body who knew anything about Mr. O'Day and bis methods could reaaily perceive that he was serving a selfish interest. The effect of such an order, if it were obeyed, would clearl y be to serve or injure the interests of one or more candidates, and nobody knew that better than the gentieman who failed to get possession of the records and machinery of the Central Committee. No explanation of this remarkable disregard of ali precedents was offered, save through a para- raph in yesterday’s Republican. bat paper, aving ope interest in common with Mr. O’ Day, when it came to a matter of oxqoripg, becaine an apologist for the committee’s chairman by attemptiag to saddle upon the committee an act which was the act of Mr. O'Day, as an individual, as the Repub- lican was fully aware, and by explaining that the act was wise because IT PROVIDED AGAINST THE CONFUSION which might result from an attempt to choose delegates to two different conventions at the same time. Those who object to the form of the call are loud in declaring that not only did the committee have nothing to do with that particular clause in the cali which assumes to limit the time for electing delegates tothe nominating convention. but that, had the call been submitted to the committee in that form, it would have been promptiy relieved of such an unwarrantable feature. They urge further, that if the argument be good that one set of primaries should be deferred so as to avoid confusion, some provision should be made to divide up the general election in November, so that only four or five offices can be voted upon at a time, in order that the simple-minded voters may not be confused“ by a multiplicity of offices. In other words, they refuse to accept the ex- planation, and deelare that had Mr. O'Day, in lace of endeavoring to postoone the primaries u question, endeavored to hasten them, the Re- publican would have been very quick to chal- lenge his . The question is being dis- cussed Mm a parts of the tate, and is provoking no small amount of indignation. From what bas already transpired, itis quite apparent that ina very large number of Counties, that portion of Mr. i order which he had no authority for mak- ug WILL BE CAREFULLY DISREGARDED. Not many of the counties have yet taken action, put of those which have acted the follow- ing have declined to accept Mr. O’Day’s dictum: Jefferson, Pike, Morgan, a- line, Bates, Pettes and Si. uis, At the meeting of tne St. Louis County Com- mittee on Monday last, it was intended by some of the members to adopt a set of resolutions de- ouncing the attempt of the State Committee Yhairman to dictate to the party at large in the interest of a clique. Mr. Jasper Burks, however, was present, and when, asa member of the Cen- tral Committee, he made a speech in which he emphatically repudiated the committee’s action, is was determined to simply give Mr. O'Day a snub. Mr. Alfred Carr, a member of the County Com- mittee, was asked about the Clayton meeting and said: „Until Mr. Jasper Burks addressed our commit- tee there was A VERY STRONG FEELING on the subject of this order, binding the county committtes to call two separate conventions for the election of delegates to the two conventions and attempting to go into the deiaiis to the extent of specifying dates. You see, the effect of this order was to practically take from the county committees all their power and making them mere figure-heads, Nobody has a right to issue directions to the county com- mittees, and the Democrats of the counties re- ard such an ailtempt as an offensive usur- pation of local dome government. Our jounty Committee, and I think the organization ju a great many counties, felt that there is some hidden meaning to the postponement of the con- vention for the State ticket to so late a date, and then when Chairman O'Day issued his order for- bidding the election of delegates to both State conventions at our county convention, we all felt that the committee was going a great way beyond its legitimate functious to manipulate the cam- aign for some special purposes. We, n St. Louis Oounty, proposed to speak our mind op this * action, and resolutions expressive of our sentiments had been been drawn up and would have been adopted, but for Mr. Jasper Burks’ appearauce at Clayton and his explanations,” “What dia he nave to say?” „He reitved himseif and many other members of the State committee of the appearance of hay- ing tried to usurp the functions of the county or- ganizations, but he put Mr. John O'Day and the liitie clique acting with him iu a bad light,” “What were bis words?“ „He told our county committee that be had not read the cali carefully until that morning. He said ibe State committee did nat mean wo dictate to the County Committee wiat they should or should not do. What may suit one county may not suit another. Therefore, it is dificult to adopt a satisfactory rule for all. He said he did not think thatif our county elected delegates to any of the Democratic conventions any man would dare to say: ‘Your delegates WERE NOT ENTITLED TO SEATS.’ That is the way be talked.” 2 sounds like a flat repudiation of Mr. O' Day's order?’ b „es, itis. It shows that the committee did not take action which at all justified the arbitrary form of that call.“ 5 „Wat was tne result in St. Louis County?” “We did not adopt the denunciatory resolu- tions at first re laying them aside on these assurances of Mr. Jasper Burks. We pro- ceeded, however, to call our convention to choose the delegates to both conventions, Oxing as ihe date Monday, Juge 2, as we would have done anyhow, and in utter disregard of this order to have it mere than a month aud a later.“ “You are satisfied, then, that Mr. O’Day’s threat to refuse recognition to delegates elected before July 20 will not be carried out?” “How can it, when we have the counter au- thority of Mr. Burks, a member of the State Com- mittee, and, more than knowledge of every true Democrat that the party would never submit to such dictation?” Ho do you account for the issue of such an order?’ “Mr. O'Day could best — — that.

The crowds of people who happened to be on the route from the patrol box at Sixth and St. Charles street to the Chestnut Street Station yes~ terday afternoon were astonished at the sight of the ‘‘Hoodlum” wagon rattling along the streets containing a handsomely dressed man in a new white spring hat and with a Romanesque cast of countenance seated between two policemen. The man was slender, although wiry and active, and the subdued smile which lingered on his face made the care on the part of the stalwart officers, who each grasped an arm, entirely unnecessary. The agility, however, which the man had dis- played in climbing a fire-escape, sliding aown a —7 Sy and dashing through an engine house and fallin g down the sliding-pole was only known to his captors and nis immediate friends. The stylish-looking occupant of the wagon was taken to the station, and proved to no less a personage than Mr. Charles A. Pease, president of the Buckeye Iron and Brass Works of Dayton, Ohio. who is in attendance at the Cotton Seed Crushers’ Couvention at the southern. When Sergeant Watkins learned who the “hoodlum” was he gave him a certificate of arrest and released him. he certificate was addressed to Capt. Joe Stack and the costs of the case was a pretty heavy time bill. The facts of the case were that after the exhipi- tion of the Pompier Corps, Mr. Lease, with Capt. Stack, ex-President Aldige, President Allison, Secretary Dugyan, Capt. Miller and several others, went areund to inspect the banging harness and firemen’s headquarters at engine No. 18, and afterwards had a patrol wagon called up to show them the conveniences of “The Finest.” Mr. Pease, being an old fireman, and having the characteristic of Ohio men to take the whole hog, tried all of the apparatus, offering to go down the sliding-pale head first, and. ona wager of the wine with Ci pt. Stack, rode to the station in the “hoodlum” coach. He says he enjoyed his ride, and the wine was superb.

NEw YORK, May 8.— While a well dressea man Was examining some breakfast dishes at the Derby Silver Company’s salesrooms, No. 3 Union Square, on Tuesday afternoon, the porter stepped up to Mr. Neville, the salesman, and said he had seen the man take something from the table and slip it into his pocket. A policeman was called in and the man, though protesting his innocence, was arrested. At police headquarters an ivory handled shoe buttoner and shoe horn combined, which was identified as belonging to the Derby Company, was found in his pocket. The article was worth 66 50. At the Jefferson mar- ket Court yesterday the prisoner said his name was Francis Homer King and that he lived ia East Eighteenth street. “lam not guilty,” he declared emphatically. “I am not a thief. I have no recollection of taking this article. I can bring good people to vouch that I am an hon- erable man.

Mr. ohn J. Decker, the plano manufacturer, told the Justice that he knew King to de an honorable man. “He wasemployed ina responsible posi- tion in my house for many years, Mr. Decker said, “and we had implicit confidence in him and never reuretted it. When he left our employ he received a $700 gold watch asatoken of the high regardin whichhe was held. Tais is a sad affair.” It was agreed that King should waive examina- tion to go to the special sessious for trial, as it was understood that the Derby Company would not press a complaint dust him.

Visions, Revelations and Threats to Win a Fifth Bride. — Salt Lake cor. New York Sun: The courtships of the saints are not al- ways romantic affairs. Dr. Sharp, of this city, has four wives, and if he has good luck he will have another before long. During the last few weeks he has had a courtship on ‘hand which has given him great trouble. He employed a girl named Mary White asa servant in one of his families. Mary was a fresh, plump, rosy-cheeked young Mormon, Her father wasa saint with two wives. Mary was the daughter of wife No.1. Wife No. 2 was gay and giddy, and when Dr, Sharp car- ried Mary back and forth between her father’s home and the place of her service, he saw her and bewitched her, as White said. After awhile Sharp en- ticed wife No, 2 away from her hus- band, and then White got an idea that the Doctor had bewitched bim also. Another saint came along who was in the soothsayin business, and he told White that he h something that was good for him, but that it would cost money. The price was agreed upon. White bough} the charm, worked it, and the evil spirit of Sharp was exorcised. Just as White was beginning to feel at ease once more, Sharp drove up with Mary and asked permission to make her Mrs. Sharp No. 5., ‘lo this the old people objected, for tley believed he was ssessed of a devil, and they thought he not support his other wives any too well. When they gave Sharp the reasons for their refusal, he was furious, and he took an oath in their pres- ence that he would have Mary. In the course of time he convinced the old man that it had been ordained from all time that Mary should become his wife; but the old lady said that the doctor had hoodooed her husband once more, and she refused to assent to the union. Then Sharp had a vis- ion or two which he related to Mrs, White. She was still inexorable. ‘Two or three days later he hada revelation that it would very acceptable to the Lord to have Mary become his wife. It had no effect on her mother. Then Sharp dreamed dreams of mighty import every night, heard tremen- dous rumblings in the skies, saw a great light and read many commands written on the fleeting clouds, all to the effect that Mar was his and his only. The old lady’s teet were set tight. Taking a new tack, the Doctor then threat- ened to summon Mrs. White before the High Council. She told him the Sanhedrim of the saints bad no terrors for her. Then he ap- pealed to the bishop of that ward, and find- ing him dull of comprehension he went be- fore the Council with his grievance. Here he found sympathetic listeners. The old bishop was promptly removed and a new one, who believes in marrying off the young women, was appointed, Sharp is on go terms with the new ecclesiastic, and con- siders himself as good as married already. Mary is now at sclioel at Provo, and Sharp has gone after her. The new bishop is e with her mother, who now sees the futility of further resistance, and who will, in a few days, it is understood, for- mally consent to the union. In Mormon so- ciety this is considered a very romantic courtship. All Mormon love stories begin and end something like the above. Since the reopening of the crusade against the Mormons the elders of the Church have decided that the saints must be urged to adopt mere generally the polygamous rela- tion. Many good Mormons have never in- duiged in that feature of the faith, but with the powers that be it is considered of vital im- portance. At the last meeting of the priest- hood the women were sent home alone, and after they had disappeared the saints not in polygamy were asked to retire. When they had gone Cannon and others of the chief priests announced that the time had come when Mormonism must put on a bold front and practice all that it preached. The riests and others in authority who had ut one Wife must give way to better men who had two, six or ten wives. Men who did not live up to their religion were un- worthy of positions of honor under it. This sentiment was assented to with raptur- ous applause by all present. The weeding outof the half-hearted saints will begin at once. This action has been brewing for a long time. A good many very faithful Mor- mons, deterred by poverty, respect for the feelings of their first wives, and by fear of Government precautions, have not ‘lived up to their religion“ in the past. All such will be tolerated hereafter, but they cannot hope to rise to places of honor in the church. Most of the big N of course, are old men. One young fellow, named Rudger Clawson, a son of Bishop Clawson, now about 21 years of age, inspired by the belief of the Elders that polygamy should be more general, has already two wives, and is look- ing around for more. Two years ago he married Florence A. Dinwoodey, and one yoat later he was joined to Lydia Spencer. oth are young wemen brought up under the teachings of Mormonism, and both are seemingly ver much attached to their roung lord. The conduct of this young fel- owin taking twe wives almost before he was out of school so worked upon the Gen- tiles and the Federal officials here that they determined to make an example of him, if ossible. Step by step they proceeded on is trail, gathering the needful. evidence, until only the testimony of his second wife was wanting. This cost them many a chase and numerous long vigils. As soon as young Clawson and his brides dis- covered that the officers were after them they broke up housekeeping, and the young women went into retirement. Several times the officers got on their track, but at the last moment lost it. Finally, by a clever ruse, they were caught in the back yard of a dwelling-house, where they had been hiding, and the writ was served on them. They were taken at once before the Grand Jury, and they treely admitted all the facts in the case. When the indictment was returned Clawson was arrested and held in $3,000 bail. Itis believed that he can be convicted, and that he will be some years older before he gets a chance to take a third wife. The prompt action taken in his case has been a dampen- er on the ardent spirits of many other youth- ful Mormons who were coutemplating pelyg- amv. Elder Jones has just given a new definition of polygamy, which is causing a good deal of amusement here and elsewhere among the Gentiles. He says the Mormons areas much opposed to polygamy as anybody, but that they do not think a man must necessarily be a polygamist because he happens to have two, tour, or atiozen wives. It is deceit,” says Mr. Jones, chat makes polygamy. If a wan has two or more wives and does not not communicate the fact to his first wife, then he becomes a polygamist, and is sub- ject to punishment under our laws. If,how- ever, the man has two or @dozen wives, and the fact is well known to his first wife, and, in fact, to all his wives, then he is nota polygamist in any sense.

There are two days in the week—Sunday, day of rest for respectable ple, and Mon- day, day of rest for those who work on Sun- day to show their contempt for God and re- ligien—when you can see as much drunken- ness here as in any other city in the world. All the mannezingues, as the lower dens are called, are crowded with male and female customers, who drink wine which does not contain a single drop of grape juice, redhot eau-de-vie made out of potatoes, and 1 strong enough to scald the tongues of honest men and women. I have ventured to re- monstrate with these people and they told me that they drank to give themselves strength, and that wine takes the place of food. Now, alcohol in the animal stomach undergoes no change whatever; it will be found in its original state in the brain, in the blood and in the liver, and it escapes un- altered from the system, causing, most frightful physical, mental and moral rav- ages. Those who hare lived in Paris for a few years cannot but have noticed that this vice of drunkenness is on the increase. There are sections of the city where every other door isa liquor shop.

London Letter in the Chicago Tribune. There has been much gossip over the re- cent union of Miss Joslin of Pittsfield, Mass., with a young and wealthy Scotchman. Miss Joslin is one of the cleverest and most ad- mirable of girls. Her marriage is quite a romantic affair. She met her present has- band in Rome, where, subsequent to the death of her father, her mother and she were spending a few weeks. Miss J. was not, of course, going out at all, nor was she receiving catis at the time, so the young Laird, with whom it was a case of love at first sight, wasina 3130 state for days and weeks. When dis inamorata left the Eternal City he promptly followed, and finally obtained permission from Mrs. Joslin to address her daughter. To make a long story short, everything, on inquiry, proving more than satisfactory, the youn man proposed and was accepted. The wede ding was set for tne next fall some time. The parents of the young flancee came soon after to make the acquaintance of their fut- ure daughter, and the result was tal subjugation of the entire family by the charming American girl. Usually it is the prospective groom who pleads most strongly for a short engagement, but in this case the expectant father-in-law was so enchanted with his son’s choice that he joined in the former’s entreaties for aa early wedding, aud to such purpose that three weeks after his presentation to his son’s fiancee the little party went quietly to the Marie, where the civil marriage took place, and from thenee to the little American chapel, and were made one.

A Champion Bone-Breaker — Pop“ Whittaker and His Many Mishaps— The Career of a Noted Old Circus Per- former and Well-Known Sport. The master of ceremonies at the Jockey Club track this week is a little one-armed man witha big voice that has been heardon almost every racing ground, and is familiar to every thorough sport in the country. The geatieman with the powerful lungs is Francis Warren Whittaker, better known as old “Pop” Whittaker. He will be 66 yeurs of age next November, and in bis career bas made a longer and brighter record of acbi- dents aud hair-breadth esca than any other sexagenarian in the world. He is styled wherever he goes ths mau of many mishaps,” There is hardly a bone in bis body that has not been broken at least once, and so friendly has he beeh with misfortune that he has almost come to love it, and is said to really feel unhappy If he is not in the hands of a surgeon, or in the act of fractur- ing a limb, or otherwise ENDANGERING HIS LIFE. He carries no charm, believes in no spells, takes fate as it comes, and has a smile for the mule that kicks him or a kind look for the cart-wheel that passes over the meal stowed snugly away under his vest. Thisis his second season with Buffalo Bill, and iu the Wild West” is having enough experience in his line to preserve his rep- utation for heroism and hard luck from growing out of the public’s memory. „I'm a little bit disfigured but still in the ring,“ he said to a Post-DiIsPATCH 2 yesterday. „I've seen all kiuds of trouble, big and little, aud have scooped in more of it than any manof 4 age aud weight in ten counties. I'm not muc on the fight, but I’ve saved many a man from de- ing licked, and have been licked myself 67 times although i only fought 49 times; the otheris was mistaken for another man, and received an apology as a balm for the bruises my assailant left with me. i’ve been shot at six times, and had two very close calls. At a southern mine iu Mariposa in 1858 a gainbler named Rea Wart put a pistol to my right cheek and asked me HI was heeled. Now 1 have never carried a knife or pistol, and of course wasn’t heeled. It was sum- mer, but when I felt the chill of that pistol against my cheek 1 got as cold as the North Pole, and as true as I sit here, I tooked into every chamber of that weapon and counted every grain of powder each contained. Well 1 was a sure goner had it not been for Orrick John- son, who knocked the man’s pistol away, and drove him from the premises, not, however, until 1 had thrown down a revolver one of the dy- standers had used, and challenged him to a fist- fight on the spot, but we didn’t fight. Another time, WHEN PLAYING CLOWN for Raymond and Waring in 1837, a fellow fired at me point blank, the only provocation being my perpetration of the time-honored mother-in-law Oke. a „I started into the circus business in 1825 in the city of New York when I was a boy, and before that, had broken my arm two or three times. In 1829 I sailed with Somerville & Ross’ circus from Bostonggefor St. Pierre, Mar- tinique, and . the vessel came near being shipwrecked and afterward caught fire among the hay ondeck, In those days horses were not placed in nice stalls on steamers as they are now, but were carried on the deck ol the ves- sels with nothing but a long pole stretched be- tween. We escaped the shipwreck and fire, owing to my usual good luck in surviving danger. I believe 1 have been all over Europe, all througtr South America, the West Indian Islands and Mexico, and thereisnota Statein the Union I have not had some experience in. Everywhere I have met with a more or less serious accident, and never seemed to be happier than when I was ust getting into or just getting out of danger. ut to return to the show business. My first se- rious accident in that line was when I Was wiih Tatnall's circus, in 1850, and was thrown from a horse 1 Was riding agaivst the old-tashioned wooden curb ring then used.

The next severe injury was received in 1559, whengl was doing a Itghtniag charge act of horseback, I was again throwu against the curb and broken and bruised from head to foot.

I was going with the company. *VYou’re crazy,” the Doctor remarked. “No, I’m not, Doc,” said 1.“ ou don’t know the Whittaker family.” “T went with the company, and late in the sum- mer, at Coney Island, while announcing the pro- ramme had my stand carried away by a wild uffaio Bill and the boys were trying to lasso, He made arush and hit the stand square, throwin me about fifteen feet—well, well, say twelve. don't want to exaggerate the thing, you know, I was obreathiess; my senses and . — had left me, Just as opened my eyes Il heard a man Bay: 70 0 yh, he ain’t dead, You can’t kill Pop that way.“ “Now, I'd like to know that man; he MUST BE A FRIEND of mine and of my family. One of the first things 1 saw ou opening my eyes was my wife standing over me laughiny. “What amuses vou so, mamma?” I asked. . „can't helpit,’ she answered; I'm laugh- ing because you're alive.’ ” , „That's just the way.

People tiving in the neighborhood of Lucky street and Spring avenues have been complaining severely for some time past of a nuisance that still remains unabated. It appears that a butcher who lived in that vicinity was accustomed to throw ali his offal into a slough tn his back yard, from whence it was drained off into the alley in the rear. The butcher moved a few days ago and now the alley gutters and the yard are a mass of stagnant refuse from which a sickening stench arises and infects the air of the entire neighborhood, The police have been notified but have taken no steps to remove the nuisance. The people think that the Board of Health should take some immediate steps towards abating this N or considerable sickuess and disease Will follow.

The May Festival, Natatorium Hall was only nhalt filled last even- ing, land although the opening night of the May festival provided one of the best musical pro- grammes ever offered in St. Louis, the public did not seem to appreciate the fact at its true value and importance, and attend as they should have The gathering was, however, in Its per- sonality an extremely elegant one, and was loudly appreciative of the exquisite fare set before it; the applause throughout the evening being lavish. demonstrative and yet bestowed witb, good sense and intelligence. One drawback was the late ar- rival of many of the auditors, which caused a very long andteaions delay before the concert opened. This peculiar display of ill-consideration be it noted, is not confined to ill-bred people, but to those who shoule aad do know better. The day will come in St. Louis when a rigid adherence to Mr. Thomas’ rule will pecome absolutely nec- essary, not only in concerts but in the theaters also—thatis to begin the performance on time and allow no one to enter while itisin progress. The ordinary stage at the south end of the hall had been added to to accommodate the orchestra of seventy-five pieces and the chorus which num- bered about 250 voices, and the accommodations were well filled. When the audience was seated it Was fully 8:30 o’clock, and the first number, Raff's Dame Kobold“ overture, was r- formed with some surrounding accompanment of rustle and conversation. The performance was excellent and demonstrated that the orchestra was thoroughly good and efficient, and had been studiously and carefully drilled, The baritone of Mme. Hauk’s Company, Signor T. Angier, then rendered a solo from Dinorah'“ and was re- called. Chevalier de Kontski, the famous Ger- man planist, gave the next number and his per- formance of his own composition Le Reveilie de Lion“ was a thorough warrant of all the laudatory things which have been said of him. He was en- cored with much emphrasis and was recalled again after his second sélection. Mme. Hauk’s reception was warm and spontaneous and she sang delightfully, rendering The Vision of Elsa,“ from Lohengrin. with all the art and finish eculiar to her fine school and method. Her voice 8 as pure, rich and deliciously sweet as when it was first heard here many years ago. She was programmed for another number later on, singing La Styrienne,” from “Mignon,” and afterwards appearing in duet with Mile. Sali in a selection from ‘‘Mefistofele.” For encores Mme. Hauk sang “Comin’ Through the Rye“ most 5 at and a waltz song, accompanying herself. Sig. Monte griffo sang an ö from Giaconda and Max Brucho’s cantata of “Fair Ellen,“ which bas several been heard here and is comparatively familiar to musieal peeple here. The soloists were Mme. Haux, Sig. Angier, and aided by the Henry Jhaw Musical Society andthe grand orchestra, and ended very pleasantly a most enjoyable mus- ical entertainment. In addition to the Raff over- ture the orchestra performed the ball scene from „Romeo and Juliet“ andthe ‘Rienzi’ overture, which were finely execut ed. As an entertainment the affair wasa perfect success. To-night the oratorio of “The Creation” will be presented at the Natatorium with the following solists: g Mme. Minnie Hauk „ Soprano Mrs. F. W.
