GOULD'S GAMES. — The Monopolist Dictating Legislation for the Union Pacific, Speculating on a Senate Committee Report Senators and Represeniatives Scrain- bling for Pacific Stock Only to be Fleecod— Congressmen Obeying Gould’s Orders— The Spanish Treaty slush Fund By Telegraph to the Post-Disnatch. Wasnmerton, January 22.—Jay Gould haa been quite busy at Washington within the last month. He has unloaded in this town a very large amount of Union Pacific stock This has been accom- | Blished through the mysterious distribution of points. The Senate Judiciary Committee has had under consideration for sometime a bili for the funding of the debt of the Union Pacific Railroad to the Government. It was proposed to put this fund in the form of a sixty years’ bond bearing a low rate of interest. It has been generally uoderstood in Washington that the action of the committee would be favorable to the bill. At any rate so-called points about the com- mittee'’s action have been SECRETLY DISTRIBUTED throughout all the official ranks of Washington life. Serators, members, department officials and even clerks have been buying Union Pacific in antic: tpation of the great rise that is to foBow the report of the Senate Committee in favor of the bill. Most all of the speculative members of the House are loaded down with Union Pacific stock. Mr. Gould kindly lets them all have all the stock they want. He does not himself seem to care abo ut holding on for the rise which is promised after the Senate Judiciary Com- mittee has reported. The chances are that all of these speculators will lose their money. Members and Senators are continually caught in the traps of New York speculators. It has been the fate of Members and Senators who speculate to be misled by the action of the committees. It is very rare that a favorable report from a committee ad vances the market valye of securities. The reason of this is that the information of what is to be done is always discounted. Sharp manipulators of stocks in New York never have any troubie in find- ing out, through their numerous agents here, what is going to be done. They then go ahead and DISTRIBUTE THEIR POINTS IN WASHINGTON, and unload all the stock they can upon their vic- tims. Theresult is that when the committee comes to make its report, in nine cases out of ten the stock goes down,as if it had been struck by a pile driver. The New York stock men, too, do not pay @ very great price for their advance in- formation. There is no need of it. There is such a craze for speculation running through Congress that a broker is generally over-run with offic ia! ap | plicanta, who are anxious to form connections with him to furnish legislative points. The broker finds no trouble in paying the speculative Legislato rs in calls upon certain stocks He gives them the assurance that they shall have all the profits o that stock when it goes above a certain point. The leading brokers, however, see that it never gets beyond that point, although it may go tanta! af ogly near it. There are some officials now who are nav- ing Union Pacifie stock carried for them with 8 was last week until it reached forty-nine. This so ex- cited the Washington lambs that large purchases were made as it went up towards this ast mentioned fignre. If the most favorable report in the world were to be made by the Senate Com- mittee to morrow, it is probable that the stock would go right down, ag, in the opinion of the best jud ges. this stock is now being held up by manipulation for the purpose of taking in the officials here. The railroad tufluence was never stronger here than it is now. It is proceeding in a different way than usual. It is not operated through the old and well-known agents of the lobby. It employs rather the ex-members who have remained here in Washington for the purpose of practicing law. Jay Gould himself has three strong objective points here. In the first place, he desires to secure as favorable action as possible from the Senate Judiciary Committee upon the Union Pacific bill now pending before it, so as to USE ADVANCE NEWS of its action as a means to unload his present hold- ings. Any one who will stop to think will know that no report of any Senate committee, however favorable it may be to the Union Pacific Railroad, can be of the slightest advantage to that road. The House has clearly affirmed its opinion for an adverse policy to the Union Pacific by its approval of the Thompson bill, which favors a more rigid enforcement of the Thurman act. No bill favorable to the road will even be considered by the House. Mr. Gould's sec- ond point is to secure the defeat of the inter-State commerce bill. The present indications in the Sen- ate are that he will be successful The Senate continues to discuss its own bill, which merely provides for a commission to inquire into inter-State commerce. The appoint- ment of a high salamed commission for the purpose of investigating a subject already weil understood, 1 5 A TRANSPARENT EVASION of the object of the Reagan bill as will deceive no one who examines it. There isan impression out, however, that the Senate, at present, is going ahead in good faith to discuss the House bill. bach day the Senate discusses inter-State commerce. how- measure is only another nail in the eoffin of the House measure. Jay Gould has given orders to have the House bill referred to the Railroad Com mittee of the Senate, with the understanding that when it once reaches there it will aot be reported back again this season. There is evidence of his having notified one Senator of his wisnes in this regard, and there is good moral evidence of dis having issued peremptory orders to at least five His third objective point is to defeat the forfeiture of the land «rants.

Those who are opposing the treaty in the Senate will! have no d fficuity in talx- ing it to death. It is certain never to be heard of again afier this session. It forins avery brilliant chapter in the closing history of the State Depart- ment's present management. Mr. Frelinchuysen is either a knave or a fool in advocating a treaty which is simpy and purely in the interests of foreign speculators, without a sing'e American in- terest in it beyond the money that would go to the agents of these foreigners in this cou ntry. STIGEK DISAPPOINTED Marries a German. Bp Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New Yor«. January 22.—Mr. J. S Stiger, president of the Acme Water Filter Comnpany,a weil known figure in Wall street, and a member of the Real Estate Exchan:e, had a surprise awaiting him when he returned from New Brunswick, N. J., on Monday evening With bis daughter. Miss Addie Stiger, 22 years of age, he has lived in an elegant suite of rooms in the Grand View Hotel. on the Western Boulevard and Fifty-ninth street. When he entered his parlor Monday evenin . to his Intense surprise he discovered that most of the furniture was gone. Hurriedly knocking at his dauguter's door he received no response. He entered the room only to find the apartment even more barren than the parior. In place of his daughter he found the foliowing brief note: “My Dear Papa: When you receive this, GUS AND I WILL BE MARRIED. I could not be happy without him. Forgive me. Come and see us at our new home, 316 East Fifty- seventh street. Addie.” Miss Stiger. aside from being the daughter of a wealthy father, has a large fortune which she innerited from her mother. The furniture which she bad removed ta her new home is her own, having been willed to her hy her mother. Amo g her intimate friends Miss St. ger numbered the wife of City surveyor J. H. Ru. doify of Lexington avenue and Fifty-seventh street. Mrs. Rudolfy has several sons, Augustus eing the oidest. He is a man of B. and is a favorite among his acquaintances. He was his father’s chief cers. About two vers ago he first met Miss Stizer In the course of t me young Rudolfy breathed his vows of love. and Miss Addie breathed hers. They did not dream of opposition, and the first blow to their hapniness fell when Papa Ster said no He would not hear of the match. His daughter, he said, shou d never marry any one buf an Arneri- can. He had no objection to the Rudolfys They were mest respectabie, had plenty of money and all that, bu. THEY WERE GERMANS, and he wouldn't have any son-in-iaw at all if he couldn't have an American. Matters were in this position when Mr. Stiger told his daughter that he was going to New Brunswick on business last Sun- day, and would not be home before the next day. He found mat ers in a very different position when be did get here. Your correspondent, who called: at. the Lexington avenue residence yesterday, met Mr. Emile Rudolfy. He said: “The wed ling took place R afternoon in the German Lut eran Church on Forty-sixth street. They were married by the Rev. Mr. Munlinger. I st up with Gus, and a friend of his, Dick North, was also present. After the ceremony they took the 3:30 p. m. train on the Pennsylvania ilroad for Washington. They expect to be absent three or four days. Our family is well pleased with the match, and wouid have n willing that Gus should bave been mar- —— + ouly that our youngest brother is seri- ously ill. a Do you know why Mr. Stiger objected to the match?” ' think his only objection was that we are not Americans. He sgid he wasa full-blooded Ameri- can, — A had got to OR NOTHING.” cast Club has rooms on the second floor of No. 1099 Second Avenue. About thirty young men with good incomes belong to the club, and tee Ru- dolfys are among them. News of the elopement reached there last night. One of the members said: “It does not surprise me, for I knew that Rudoify was desperate. You see, Stiger wanted to break off the affair, and began to tell nis daughter stories to set her against Rudolfy. When Gus heard of it there was blood in his eye. He waited upon Stiger at the Grand View Hotei. Tney had high words, and Gus drew a revoiver. i don't think he had any intention of using it. but it seared Ster. He leveled the revolver at Stiger and swore that if thi didn't come to a cris.s then and there somebody's blood wouid flow. Stiger thought Gus meant mischief, and begun to temporize, and after a wulle Gus went away, sat- isfied that there would be no more opposition.” A bandsome suite of offices lies on the first floor of 176 Broadway. The offices belong tothe Acme Water Filter Company. In an inner office the pres- ident. Mr. Stiger, was found. He isa large, heav- ily made man. Hesaid: “My daughter is of age, and,of course, CAN MARRY WHOM SHE CHOOSES, but I objected to Rudoify. The famiy are all right. He frequently too my dauguter to the Liederkranz entertainments, which lasted until far into Sunday morning. Tuis I objected to, and remoustrated with botu my daug ter and Rudolfy. Of course tue young man is now my son-in-law, and do not wish to say anything in disparagement of him. “You have decided, then, to forgive your daugh- ter! j “I wrote to her to-day, saying that she had my forgiveness.

Messrs, Sampson, Specht, Barnes, and Joy were present at this morning’s meeting of the sub- com- mittee on collections of the Sanitary Aid Agsocia- tion. A matter of considerable interest to the be- nevolent and mutual aid societies was suggested by Mr. Specht. This was that the loss of 100 members of any order paying, as most of them do, a of $200,000 to the order, which would be ruinous. In ition to the $200,000 there would be sick benefits and the care of the sick in case of cholera, which would still more drain the resources of the organi- zation. To bring these considerations more ent- ly to the attention of the societies, the followin statement was added to the circular p an published yesterday to be sent out to the societies: A loss of a hundred members in the — gene yee where the benefits are $2,000 would en not only the loss of valuable lives of protectors of families, It was ound t sev blocks in the business portion of the city had been overlooked and missed in the assignment of districts, and also that in other por- tions certain blocks had been assigned to two col- lectors and were, therefore, canvassed twice. It by Mr. Sampson that the chairmen was suggested ot the sub-collecting committees for each district should be urged to carefully overlook their dis- tricts and see to it that no part of it be missed and that no confusion arise from the DOUBLING OF COLLECTORS. It was determined to have Assistant Secretary Warner ratify the chairmen of the com- mittee in the business part of the city of their dutiés in this respect,and that cards be sent to the others with reference to this matter, as several gentlemen have stated that they have not been applied to at all. It was determined to ap- point Moses Fraley and Sid. Francis a committee of two for the purpose of soliciting subscri ns on Change to the fund from such members the Ex- change as have not been otherwise applied, to and a letter was drafted to these gentlemen asking them to undertake the work. In the matter of col- lections it should be borne in mind that the amount of money given in the published returns does not represent the entire amount realized, as none of the books are handed into the treasurer until the entire district it represents has been thoroughly can- v Many of the reports are nearly, but not —, completed, ol the They doo — ob- are very encou ng. not re in the formal returns, however, and will not do so un- til the lists are complete.

Loxnox, January 2. A report is current that General Stewart has occupied Metemneh. This lacks official confirmation, but is generally believed, as Stewart pushed forward with the greater part of his forves immediatety after the victory on Satur- day, near Abu-Klea Wells. It is highly probable also, that all the *rebels' who had been stationed at Metemneh had left that point to take part in Saturday's engagement, and it is thought unlikely bat they rallied and madea station at Metemneh 80 soon after the decisive defeat. The Government has telegrap héd public congratulations to Wolseley and Stewart. HELPING WOLSELEY. Korti,Eeypr, January 22.—The Sheikh of the Kabbabish tribe came to Kortito-dav.

Edwin Harrison’s Individual Prop, erty Goes Under the Hammer for $86,600. - — —— A Sale at the Court House Front Attended by Some Amusing Scenes—Sarcastic Lay. yers Engage in a Wordy War--A Verdict in Favor of A. B. Hart. § There was another row and hubbub growiug out of the Harrison Wire Works complication, both in Judge Horner's court and at the east front of the Court House, to-day. As mentioned elsewhere, the suit of A. B. Hart on a promissory note for $25,000 was tried in Judge Horner's court this morning, the jury returning, a verdict later in the day against the defendants, the Harrison Wire Company, and James M. Leete en- dorse¢r on the note, for $27,444 44. At the east front door of the Court House at noon, Mr. John W. Har rison, as trustee under two deeds of trust. one bearing date June . 1 and the other January 6, I.. executed by Edwin Harrison and his wifein favor of Wm. M. Harrison, proceeded to sell the entire interest of Mr. Harrison in all his individual prop. erty situated in this city and adjoining counties. The property is estimated to be worth over $200,090 —the deeds of trust being given to secure the pay- ment of four notes of $51,000. SARCASTIC LAWYERS. Just before the sale Mr. Frank Bowman put in an appearance and said that he had ted a notice on the Sheriff's board warning all purchasers that they would take a defective. title at the sale, as the deeds of trus: were invalid and the conveyances fraudulently made without any valuable consideration being given. He was hooted at by the parties conduct. ing the sale, and laughing rushed < again into Judge Horner's court. where the jury in the Hart case were still out with au instruction from the Court to find for the plaintiff. Mr. M. L. Gray,who appeared for Mr. Edwin Harrison, was paciug uy and down in front of the counsel table in Judge Horner’s room, reminding the Court that he would move for an arrest of judgment on the verdict. “There has been no verdict yet, Mr. Gray, said Judge Horner. “Yes. ButIl cant see what other verdict there can be under the instruction given by the Court.” “But juries do not obey instructions,“ replied the rt. “I object, your honor. however, to any execution being issued on this judgment. There is no evidence that Mr. Edwin Harrison made a fraud- ulent conveyance, as Mr. Bowman alleges. He seems to have discovered much more in this case than I have.” “Oh yes!" retorted Mr. Bowman. I have discov- ered a number of things in my life that vou never dreamed of.” é And there a number of things in your life that others have discovered which you never dreamed t would discover.” retorted Mr. G ray. “Well, gentlemen, “interposed Judge Horner, “this . thing must stop. “I only M matters to take their proper course. —4 — — this Mr. Gray ill see “lam : w tothat.

SALE. THE Then both Bowman and Gray went down to the sale, which had been progressing some fifteen mio- utes. Here Bowman again insisted upon reading is notice amidst cries of let up.“ d— nn your old notice, you ve read it once,” andso on. But he insisted reading, while Judge Lanham drowned his voice with, “How mt “. gentlemen?

The entire sale netted $86,600. Of course more litigation will follow the sale. At the Four Courts.

To- day's telegrams show that the Tenth Crusade has received a serious check. ee = Tue Italian Government proposes to spend $4,000,000 in putting the city of Naples into fair sanitary condition. The lesson taught by the comma bacillus has borne fruit, and money could not be spent for a better purpose. How many American cities will have to be taught similar wisdom by a like experience 2— THE massacre at Abu-Klea may have been, technically, a British victory, but a victory gained by civilized drill and armament at great loss overamob armed with spears and bullock shields, should not be calculated to lessen the anxiety with which England is look- ing to the Soudan. Had the Manni but half a dozen machine guns and a couple of field bat- teries, his capitol would be in Cairo before Oc- tober. LORD GARMOYLE, whose chief claim to dis tinction lies in the fact that he jilted Miss For- TESCUE and paid the heaviest damages for breach of promise on record, is being pursued by the interviewer, and the telegraph wires dre laden with the futile results. Why any- body should want to know what Lord Gu- BOIL thinks upon any given topic is a question which none but the Missouri Republican can answer. Ir seems that $150,000 was used in securing the lease of Cincinnati's Southern Railroad from the trustees, and an effort to find out how that amount was apportioned among the Cin- cinnati newspapers is now attracting public attention. If the Cincinnati papers helped to rob their city of her twenty-million-dollar rail- road, and did not get more than $150,000 out of the job, they will feel terribly humiliated by an exposure. Jay GouLp is saidtobe unloading Union Pacific stock upon the national legislators in Washington, who are buying greedily in anti- cipation of a favorable report from the Senate Judiciary Committee onthe bill funding the Union Pacific debt. If Congressmen have “pointers” to buy and Jay GouLp has point ers” to sell, we would liketo layan egg toa coffee bean that the funding bill will not be favorably reported. LL In the Paton-Huntington suitin the New York Supreme Court Lawyer Banos very pathetically and picturesquely described the reign of terror instituted by the irresponsible and anonymous press. Seeing that Mr. Banas’ client, Mr. HUNTINGTON, is one of the notorious Pacific Railroad gang, who succeeded in buy- ing pretty nearly everything in this country except the press, it is hardly a matter of sur- prise that the learned counsel should have a grievance against a power which can neither be cajoled, bullied nor bought. — Horx. Jonn B. Fix cn, Chairman of the Pro- hibition National Committee, comes back at- CLARKSON and the Republican Committee with a proposition which will strike the public as quite fair, though somewhat aggressive. As they have themselves exposed the failure of their attempt to bribe Sr. Joun, Mr. Fon calls on them to publish a list of the Prohibi- tionists whom they did succeed in bribing to desert St. Jomw and to work for Biatre. It seems that quite a number of prominent St. John men deserted his standard during the campaign, and Mr. Fran thinks that CLanx - son and the Republican Committee are loaded with information on the subject. Mr. Fon denies that his committee ever received a cent from a committee of either of the other parties. He defies the world to produce any proof con- tradictory of his denial. But he does not deny that the efforts of the Blaine people to buy up Prohibitionisté succeeded in the case of Nga. Dow and others, though they failed in the case of Sr. Joux. — Acta for a drove of cattle taken by the notorious Kansas Seventh, bas just made its first appearance in Washington, after sleeping the Senate bas jumped st the first opportunity the British Museum or. .. the 2 to allow it, There were no vouchers, and the jas where they are, for. any use proof of the claim seems to be confined ‘to student can make of them.

If they do not work this mine for all there is in it, and steal ten times as much from the Government as they ever stole from the people, they are not the men they used to be. But there is no statute of limitations against claims. The older they are, the bigger and better they are, as was illustrated in the case of the French spoliation claims. ——— THE BATTLE IN THE SOUDAN. ‘“Blood is thicker than water,” and so it is impossible not to feel both sympathy and ad- miration for the gallant fellows who so nobly sustained the hereditary fame of England, and of the English-speaking race in the battle of Metemneh. But we can well afford to feel deeper sympathy and higher admiration for the enemy who fought theni so long and so desper- ately against overwhelming odds. There will be enough and more than enough to praise the pluck and valor of British sol- diers; their deeds will live in story and in song, and find graceful and generous immortality growth in forty years a million volumes will be on its shélves. In the name of common sense, why not provide the shelving? I pr — MEN OF MARK. Mr. Josnua Montoomery Stars pays the largest individual tax in Boston.

They are Vice Chan- cellor Bacon, who is in his 87th year; Judge Peters- dorf, in his 8th; Judge Hulton, in his 83d, and Judge Bayley of the Westminster County Court, also in his 83d year. Josx Briutines, who has abandoned housekeeping and removed from Sixty-third street to the Windsor Hotel, New York, is now about 65 years old, and be- gins to feel the burden of life, irrespective of its probabilities. He has been lecturing twenty-four seasons, and has furnished a New York weekly a half or quarter column miscellaneous contributions every week for the last nineteen years. Mn Lincotn’s manner while signing the emanci- pation proclamation on New Year's night, 1863, is thus described in a current item: “As be took up the pen he said to Secretary Stanton: ‘My arm is numb to the shoulder from so much handshaking. If my hand trembles they will say it was because I was afraid.“ Then he threw out his under lip in a peculiar fashion and wrote the untaltering signa- ture, ‘A. Lincoln.“ that gave freedom to over three millions of blacks.” WOMEN OF THE WORLD. age of the men from whom these trained veterans of England snatched a dearly-bought victory? What painter or sculptor will tax his genius to preserve from oblivion the nameless heroes who rushed over heaps of their own dead and dying to break British squares, girt with steel and fire and directed by the perfected sci- ence of modern warfare? Who will pay even a just tribute of applause to the half-naked, half-armed barbarians who dared to match swords, spears, and bull-hide shields against Gatling guns, breech-loading cannon, and re- peating rifles‘—who, not once only, but again and again, charged straight into certain death, and, when finally beaten, left the vie- tors nothing but the barren glory of suc- cessful resistance. BURNABY wili have a col- umn obituary in the London Times, and a monumental marble in Westminster Abbey or St. Paul's; but what post-mortem honors will be bestowed upon the unknown Arab who met the giant pet of the British army, and to slay him gladly gave up his own life? Gen. STEw- ART, if he lives to get home, may hope for a peerage. or at least the cross and ribbon of the Bath; but for ABUSALEH, Emir of Metemneh, who led a hundred comrades into the center of STEwaRT’s Square, and witu them died fighting to the last, there is noth- ing but a shallow grave in the sands of the desert, the wail of afew Arab women and children, andthe dim tradition of one who bravely perished in his country’ s cause. For it should be remembered, though always forgotten, that these Arabs are simply doing to the uttermost the highest duty of patriots: defending their native land from the invasion of a foreign foe. The Soudan belongs to them, and not to the English. Their ancestors were masters of that vast territory before Ceesar sect foot in Britain. They have never abandoned it, never sold it, never yielded an inch of that, to them, sacred soil, except under temporary compulsion; and a hundred victories like that of last Saturday will buy! for England only so much of the Soudan as is cov- ered by her troops and reached by her artillery. If there ever was a thoroughly unrighteous and unnecessary war, it is that which England is now waging in behalf of miserable, God- forsaken Egypt; and no amount of British congratulation, glorification, prayers in churches and thanks of Parliament can make that war other than a burning sin and shame. for which, sooner or later, there will be a har- vest of bitter retribution Dr. Mary Waker, having failed to keep berseif before the public as prominently as she@gesired, has concluded to accept the invitation and consign her- self to obscurity by writing a play. * Miss Gertrupe MeMastun, daughter of Jobn C.

Tux cable brings us the intelligence that an Eu- glish lady has been arrested in Holland for wearing a felt hat and having short hair. It appears from this that Holland is not the place for Dr. Mary Walker or Belva Lockwood. By her marriage, the Princess Beatrice will be- come sister-in-law to the Prince of Bulgaria, and. curiousiy, sister-in-law to her own niece, the daugh- ter of the Princess Alice, who is married to the elder brother of Beatrice's betrothed. Zur three photographs that attract most atten. tion in the Women's Department in the New Or- leans Exposition are those of Mrs. Martha G. Lamb. the New York historian; Mrs. Lillie Devereux Blake, the New York lecturer; and Mra Relva J. Lockwood, who is described by the Picayune as having a noble bead, “with no bang or spit-curis.” Mrs. Lamb is incidentally mentioned by the same critic as “probably 36 years of age.” which does seem probable. — — PRESIDENT ARTAUR in his appointments gen- erally has made a better record than any of his Republican predecessors since the war. He has made more really good selections and fewer bad ones. It's a pity that he should permit the ne- potism of his Cabinet to mar his record in this respect in the very last months of his term. But the army commissions conferred upon BREWSTER'S stepson and FRELINGHUYSEN’s New Jersey protege, young WRIGHT, are enough to demoralize West Point and the army. WRIGHT was reported for dismissal for failure in his second year studies at West Point. and, if he had been dismissed, could not have been lawfully appointed until after all of his success. ful classmates had graduated and received com- missions, But executive influence obtained for him the privilege of resigning and he was im- mediately made a second lieutenant in the army by executive appointment. His class- mates will not only have to st udy two years longer and pass all the examinations before re- ceiving commissions, but even then may have to wait years for them because dunces like WRIGHT and dudes like BREWSTER’S stepson have received what should have been reserved for West Point g aduates or for subalterns who have rendered meritorious service in the army, If such abuse of the appointing power were not a very unusual thing, Congress would soon have to pass a law to weed out the interlopers foisted on the army as officers. i : — — THERE is one appropriation, that for the proper housing of the Congressional Library about which Congress cannot go Wrong.

The Administration Schemes to Retain Republicans iu Office. By Telegraph to the Post Dispatch. Wasnixeron, January 22.—There isan evident disposition in administration circles to anticipate, nevery possible way, the action of the coming ad- ministration. It is said that there will be a number of resignations between now and the 4th of March. so that the President can put in a further number of his friends. The President's lack of delicacy in seeking to se- cure all the possible favors between the present time and the 4th of March is a subject of comment in Democratic circles, The Democrats regard the whole policy outlined in the treaties as simply an attempt to embarrass them.

The — —— rhe recent publication in the Post-DrsratcH ius. trating the methods in vogue in Eastern cities of beat u of street ears in winter and recommending ) that a similar plan be adopted by the local street car companies, has been received with marked favor in every quarter, excepting possibly by some few street car magnates, and itis very likely that ‘ye matter will be taken up by some of the mem- yrs of the House of Delegates and pushed to a wecessful termination. The idea of warming cars by stove or steam is favorably received wherever it „ mentioned, and the hope expressed that x will be Farrlad out. The general opinion being that if all the Eastern cities, and even A Paul, Minneapolis and St. Joseph, Mo., can afford the luxury. it is certainly little jess than an outrage to withhold it any longer from the public of this city, where cars are onized to as eat an extent as, and the fares charged will aver- age higher than, in aty of the places above men- oned 4 Post-Dispatoa reporter met Mr. Fred.

It does appear, by gracious! that it wouid suggest itself to the street car manazers as a pure-y business principle, if not from a humanitarian | standpoint, to make some provisions for the pas- Engers welfare and not lavish all of their attention | upon the cash immediately msigbt.

Now instead of stove however. how would it do to imtroduce a system o heating by a sort of warming pan, as they do in 1 ne reporter agreed that it might be a very good ikiea, and = since George appeared pregnant with information and new ideas be asked him for further ex ation. Stones or steam pipes are never used in the old country, you know,” continued Mr. Bain. “On! bless you, no.

In order to mark the line between news and libel, and the line that separates the damage shark or barra- tor and the victim of newspaper wantonness, a gentleman of large, legal experience and acknow!l- eiged ability bas drawn up a bill which isa revis- on of the entire law of libel, and is very explicit in ai! of its provisions. Inasmuch as the bill will have a very large degree of interest for all publishers, as well as a general interest for all newspaper is here given in advance of its introduction. The first section defines libel as being the malic- jous defamation of a person, made public by any printing, writing, sign, picture, representation or effigy tending to provoke him to wrath or expose him to public hatred, contempt or ridicule, or to deprive him of the benefits of public confidéuce and social intercourse, or any malicious defa ynade public as aforesaid, designed to blacken and vilify the memory of one who is dead, and tending 4% seandalize or provoke his surviving relations and friends. The section provides that such printing or writing is not a libel unless delivered, sold or read to one or more persons, or to the party libeled, or else posted in some public place. The neXt section provides that a proof that the injurious statement was true shall be a perfect defense in a vil suit, provided the motive of publication was to wrve some purpose or justifiable end. The N 1. — — — same thing, namely. t n minal! prosecu s for libel the truth of the publication shail be no de: ee unless it shall be shown that the pur- poe of publishing was solely that of pub. oi, and without any corrupt intention the person whom it concerns. The provides that not only the pub- lisher ofa book, serial or vewspaper which publishes a libelious statement, but the author or editor thereof, and the chief or managing officers of such publishing Concern sball be liable to civil damages for said pubtication; but that if a — er can show that the printing was done without his autbority, and that he disavowed at the earliest possible moment,a criminal action can not be mamtained against him. The bill goes on to provide that there shall he no responsibility, either civil or criminal, for a fair report of anything said in the course of a judi- cal or legislative proceeding or the proceedings of any deliberative body or public meeting heid for a jawfui purpose, but this exemption shall not apply to headlines or to accounts of things said or duve which were not properly a part ot such proceed- ings, nor shall it apply to depositions or petitions, or affidavits until the same have been read in court or in some such body as above referred to. Nor shall this immunity from responsibility be enjoyed m case the pubiisher or editor refuse to publish sub- sequently a correction of the injurious statement when requested by the injured party soto do. The penalty sections provide that if any person shall be convicted of libel. under tue definitions bere given, he shall be punished by imprisonment in the coun- ty jail for not less than three months nor more than one year, white if it be shown that the published libei was not only malicious, but f and known by the author or false, he shail be publisher to be sentenced to hard labor in the — for a term not exceeding two years. Jat is to say, con- viction means imprisonment.as no fine is men- tioned. The last section provides for the punish- ment of blackmail, and under it auy person who found guilty of having endeavored to extort money, uabie property, or official favor by a threat to publish or vy an offer to withhold from publication ny scan da dus matter shal. upon conviction, be neu in penitenuary, at hard labor, for a not ex two years. st Notwithstanding the representation of Mr. Pat that be bad satiated himseif that nothing could be In case ng a safe number the bin is they succeed in pledgi ready. If they fall, the bill will never be heard of. The representation is made that the business any part of the State. it would be wis- dom to grant the relief. There is no large amount of danger that the effort will succeed. The Judiciary Committe of the Senate last night eed to recommend favorably the Webster bill, which provides for a repeal of the wine and beer law of 1857. The effect of such repeal would be, of course, to leave the Down- ing law in full force as to St. Louis. That is to say, saloons and barber shops can only be kept open on Sunday by a violation of the statute. There is such & certainty that this bill will pass, that some of the St. Louis members are considering a compromise plan, which will be to pass a bill allowing saloons in large cities to be kept open ull 9 o'clock on Sunday morning, and after 8 oclock Sunday afternoon. The same influence that . — the bill repealing the 57 law, how- 1 defeat this compromise measure. and y the bad policy of the saloon men in se- curing and presentung so many anti-Prohibition pe- ons is beginning to prove itself. A bill is about to be introduced by Mr. Loring | ers of the St. which to te business in the St. Lonis Criminal a provides that whenever J of Criminal Court shall certify to the Ci t Court that his work is excessive and more can attend e of same, may appoint a i udge who shall porti the minal Court business.

He is always present on opening nights, and his shining eye- glass peers critically over his standing collar at the array of types of the female figure spread out before him.

A glance around sufficed to convince him that he wasinthe right spot. Nearly every variety of masher was on hand. The slim, delicate sprig with the first suggestion of down on lin like harbingers of spring, the heavy dude. the short dude, the long dude; the fresh voungster making his first attempt, and the old haud at the business with his wigwam decorated witn scaip locks, were out in force. One bad a single tube rose significant- ly displayed in bis buttonnole, and which his eyes sought significantly from time to time; another had a Marechal Niel in the same piace, and a careful observation would have discovered a great variety of flowers and tokens displayed on various of their neatiy groomed persons. The interesting and puzzling actions of THE DENIZENS OF DUDEDOM began when the curtain went up. and at different times afterward. There was one group of four in the same neighborhood with the same flower in their buttonholes arranged in the same way. who watched one of the performers with painful eazer- ness, and spent the tume when she was off the stage loo«ing rs at each other and feeling Sneepish. ne little lady whom they were looking for gave them no more than a passing glance and a peculiar sue. The reporter noticed that one young man did not take off his coat until the entrance of the chorus. and then he stood up and garment in the most mark ostentatious manner; another bier his nose distinctly and emphatically three times when the pages usual order of a gentleman's occupation at the theater.

Sue nas been on the stage only three months, but in that brief her course has been marked by crushed bleeding hearts. “What can 1 teli you about the mashers’” said she, lauchingly, in answer tothe reporter's ques- tion. “Way, nothing. I dont know anything about them, and think they are horrid. As soon as I hear that a man lays any claim to the title I have no more use for him.. “Yes, but you certainly have had some experience with them m some way?” Do you think so?” ihere was a merry twinkie in her eye. “Well, in a certain way, perhaps, | have. Would you cali this having any experience? I have just received this,” and she drew from her pocket a ‘scented note, or rather letter, for it filled three pages of letter paper written. This is different from most of them; it is so funnily written —so serious and quaint." The note was full of sen- timent and delicace flattery, well-worded and writ- ten in a bold, round hand. It stated that the writer had seen Miss Standsh on the stage and had greatly admired her, and with tne humblest apoiogies for daring to addreas her in that way begged for the honor of meeting in her any way she might dictate. There was nothing in the note, except tne note itself, to offend tue most fastidious, and the name signed at tne bottom was one that would be recognized by a great many pte in St. Louis as bewnging to one of the favorites among the eiizibie young men. “Here is another,” said she, smiling witu the queerest request in it.

I.—Battling With a Big Whale--A Chase Lasting All Day and All Night. a By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatci: AmaGansetr, L. L. January 22,—Every old resi- dent of this part of Long Island is an old whaler, and every young man longs for the proud moment when he shall drive his iron into the blubber-of his first whale. A school of nine was sighted a week ego, and one was captured on the same day by a crew from this place. It sank when killed and drifted twenty miles down the coast, and was finally washed ashore off Shinnecock Poiut, on Saturday. Ever since then the men who killed it have been busy with their friends CARTING THE BLUBBER back to this village, and drying it out. Tuesday afternoon they were at work on the shore, when a miles off the shore, shining in the sun and forging slowly ahead, moved by the lazy flopping of a gigantic tall. Blubber and fry pots were deserted, and in ten minutes the three boats of the village were cutting the water in hot — Five men were pulling at the oars in each t with a sixth as captain, or boat leader, standing in the stern steering and watching the monster's move- ments. Haifa mite of hard rowing brought the boats to the point of the bar, and as they puiled it into the open ocean they saw the three whaling boats from East Hampton come dancin: over the waves. The whale at this time became suspicious aud dived out of sight. Then all the whale- men separated, each boat pulling toward the spot where its captain thought the whale most likely to appear. At sundown the whale still bad the best of it. He had been up and down innumer- able times, and succeeded in THROWING OFF THE TRACK all but one of his pursuers. One of the Amagvan- sett ds was still with him, and was watching closely every one of his movements. Old Joshua Edwards, the oracle of whales, was in command. He seemed to know just what the whale’s inten- tions were, and just as the sun set he succeeded in fooling it. He had all along carefully avoided crossing the whale's track, use, he said, whales can feel a boat crossing their track. Ali the other boats being well in the rear, the big monster stopped tobreathe and take it easy. Captain Edwards motioned to his men to make but little noise. The unsuspecting whale lay stillon the water until the bow of the boat was within fifteen feet of his side. Then the Captain motioned to his men again. They stopped rowing and George Smitb, laying aside his oar, stood up in the bow of the boat and hurled a har- poon deep down into the whale’s back. Then it was “STERN ALL” for their lives. The men backed water as hard as they could from the dangerous vicinity, but the whale went off like a shot. lashing the water with his tail and dragging the boat after him at railroad speed. After the first burst of fury he sank, and fathom after fathom of the bow line attached to the harpoon was paid out. Ina few minutes he ruse again and tore through the waves once more. Captain Edwards had taken his position in the bow of the boat, and held a hatchet in one hand ready to severe the rope in case of necessity and in the other a long, keen lance, eagerly watch. ing for an opportunity to plunge it into a vital spot. But the w was a whopper, fifty feet long, and his power of endurance seemed inexhaustible. In a short time the boat was dragged eight miles out to sea with a long crimson wake stretching far behind it. The other boats were doing their best to catch up with the chase, but in vain. Occasilonaliy, the stricken monster would lie motioniess om the water and the men in the boat endeavored to approach him by drawing themselves up hand over hand, but this strain on the harpoon — spurred him to renewed struggles and e would start away again. He had been lanced a dazen times before six o’clock, but the constant lashing of his terrible tail kept the men at a dis- tance, and the wounds were not deep. At last, however, * HE SHOWED SIGNS OF WEAKNESS. sible, took up instead of sharp instrument calied a spade. with such dexterity and his lance a broad, He hurled it force at the and seemed to lyze it. The whale then lay at the mercy of his pursuers. The latter drew up without fear, and the captain, taking deliberate aim. inflicted a fatal wound. The whale sank at once, but soon came up spouting blood, and in ten minutes he rolled over and floated lifeless on the water. In a sbort time the other two Amagansett boats came up. All three boats were fastened, one be- hind the other, in tandem style, and the fifteen men, guided by BIG BEACON FIRE 4 built by their friends on the shore, started to tow their prize back. At I o'clock yesterday morning, the difficult task was accomplished and the whale lay stranded off shore. The work of stripping off the blubber and taking out the whalebone was be- gun at once and it has been going on ever since. ere is great rejoicing in the village, and no jeal- ousy among the crews, as each of the eighteen Amagansett men will receive an equal share,captains and men all faring alike, without any preference for those who did the killing. The whaleis valued at about 82.000, which makes a little more than 8100 to reward each man for risking his life. The Weather. Mr. Wasnrnetor, N.

A ͤ ͤ—dn———ä — —— — II WILL KILL TRADE * The Merchants’ Exchange Polled on the Proposed Option Law. - Representative Men Who State That the Bill, if Passed, Will be Disastrous in Its Results—The Option Business Explained —Some Interesting Talks. A bill was introduced into the Upper House of the State Legislature yesterday prohibiting option trading and dealing in future deliveries or sales,and making such option trading a misdemeanor punish- able with a fine of from $100 to $1,000. As conducted at present the —- business is not as it 1s generally thought to be, little better than gambling. Every trade made, if only for 5,000 bushels of grain, is done under contract which pro- vides for the transfer of the actual material bargain- ed for at some definitely stated period. Dealing in futuresand options is indulged in all over the world, the same system prevailing in Russia as is used in the local market on Change, and the adop- tion of such a law would cut the State off from much commercial communication and relation with the other European and American markets. A osr-Disraron reporter who spoke with several merchants on Change upon the subject obtained the following expressions of opinion: b WEB M SAMUEL, who was very much surprised when he heard of the bill, said, “I don't think that the gentleman who introduced that bill knew anything about the nature of an option trade or a transaction in fut- ures. Every trade made in grain upon this floor for future delivery is done by contract and is as strictly legitimate asa purely business bar- gain in any line. Trading in futures is as old as this country almost, andit would be impossible to con- duct commerce without it. Why, bless you, an option is merely the space of time witbin which the commodity bargained for may be soid or delivered. And if it were not for be prices which speculation gives to grain the farmer would be obliged to await actual sales before he would know what he was likely to obtain for his wheat or corn, as the case might be, and, furthermore, it would then be a ham rey — easy matter to form combinatious to break or boom the market. which is rendered difficult, in fact, al- most impossible, under the existing system. But anyway I don't think that legislation can deprive us of the rights which we enjoy under the Constitutiou to dispose of our property in trade in any manner that we may see fit, so long, of course, as the trade is legitimate, and option trading is le- gitimate. No, sir, I can't see how a law probibiting me from selling grain to be delivered next week, next month or even next year can be constitu- tional. D. R. FRANCIS said: “Why such a bill is a very foolish one in- deed. Thecommerce of this country or of the world cannot be carried on without option trading. It is absolutely necessary in order to protect large dealers, if for no other reason. Now. for instance. I have large quantities of wheat sold in Antwerp, Amsterdam, Germany, France and Italy, carrvin, in all over 1,000,000 bushels of cash grain. Weil, you don't suppose for an instant that I would con- tinue in that business if I was deprived of the privi- lege of protecting myself by selling options against it, do you’ Option trading is one of the ways which dealers in large quantities of actual stuff have of bedamg' tuemselves. It is unt versal iu the markets of the world, and it is ridicu- lous to speak of such a bill.“ J. C. EWALD laughed when the bil was mentioned. “Why, the adoption of such a bill would be ruinous not only to the traders vere upon the floor, but to the farmers also,” said Mr. Ewaid. “If you will take the trouble to investigate you wil! find that at present very nearly all the grain in the country is held by speculators. and if they did not protect themselves by maintaining a good market price for it the farmer would not receive within fifteen or twenty cents per bushel of its actual, or rather resent, value. Ican remember that some ten or teen years ago the entire wheat market was at the mercy of the millers. who formed combinations whenever it so suited them. and broke the price from fifteen to twenty cents a bushel and then sent in one of their number to buy up all the wheat im sight. Such tactics are rendered impossible now simply because option trading al- lows the speculators and middiemen to buy or sell for future delivery, and to sell options against the stock in the market asthe occasion may require. Trading in futures is necessary to the preservation of our commerce, and it is foolish to talk of abol- ishing it. ¢ ROLLA BILLINGSLEY said: Farmers would not receive within 20 per cent of the present price. for their wheat, if it were not for option trading and speculation. Speculation very often creates a de- mand and market for grain when otherwise it would tali fiat. Besides, all this talk about option trading being a species of mbling, is all bosh. Every trade consummated is done under contract whic provides for the delivery of the grain, and in a ma- jority of cases delivery is insisted upon.” JEROME HILL, president of the Cotton Exchange, expressed him- self as follows: The commerce of the world is regulated by the customs and commercial laws of England. In England a contract for future deliv- ery is held sacred, and soit is here and elsewhere. Our merchants must conform with the practice, in this respect, of other countries, and the State of Missouri cannot afford to overlook established customs in making its laws. Option trading is oe legitimate—as much so as any other trad- : MICHAEL M ENNIS : said: “Option trading cannot be abolished, but Jaws may be made to regulate it and hoid it within legiti- mate bounds. A law prohib ting it entirely would. in my opinion, prove a dead letter to all practicable purposes.
