HONEY, r OF TAR. i¥ A BLAZE, The Lindell Hotel on Fire This Evening. A Serious Fire Which Startled the Town. The Second Experience of the Firemen in the Lindell. Fearful Panic Amocg the Guests in the Hotel, The Flames at Last Brought Under Control—A Gallant Fight Made by the Department Under Difficulties— A Houseful of Smeke, The fire at the Lindell Hotel this evening bids fair, at this writing, to be one of the most disastrous in the history of this city. About 5 o’clock smoke was noticed issuing from the ditterent apertures leading out of the the cellar. The cry of fire was at once” rated. but N before the work of alarming the inmates of the notti could be fairly begun, great volumes of smoke rolled up out of the cellar as thick, greasy clouds, which slowly climbed the grand stair-case, and, like a flood poured through every hall and passageway in the house and filtered into the rooms. Within a few minutes the wildest panic reigned. The house has been for some time past a favorite residence hotel, and it was full of women and children. As soon as these saw the smoke and heard the con- fused cries, they rushed pell-mell, shrieking and crying, down the stairs. The banks of smoke met them and increased their fright, but by the bard work of the hotel employ- ees and of the Salvage Corps men THE HOUSE WAS CLEARED, came at once al- though the first alarm sent out was a still, and the battle withthe hidden flame began. That was the peculiarity of the fire, not a blaze, not a spark of fire, was visible. Everywhere the thick, choking smoke poured out, but where the smoke came from no one could say. it.was known shortly that the fire was confined to the cellar. It had started in the store room. and the heavy rubbish in the basement was feeding it. Collector Sexton came up to the scene and as sumed charge of the work. In a few minutes he had holes cut in the tiling of the rotunda floor, and iron shutters pried off from the sides on the pavement, Wherever a hole was made the smoke surged out, and the nozzles of the pipes were turned in, By this time the smoke had be- come so banked in the upper stories that it forced its way out of the windows from the roof down, and made many believe that a fiery core existed within. All the experts agreed that if the flames went to the elevator the Lindell Hotel was gone up, and the utmost anxiety prevailed to get a stream into this part of the building. The strongest efforts were made, but again and again the choking smoke drove the brave fellows back. The danger of asphyxiation was a very real one. One of the firemen of the 16's was 80 badly overcome that he had to be taken away in an ambulance, So the fight went on. At a quarter to 6 nobody had got to the elevator. The cellar was evidently a flery hell. The pavement of the rotunda was so hot The engines that it hissed when the water struck it. Later, however, the streams were got in, and a much more hopeful feeling began to prevail. THE CROWD, outside a crowd gathered, the like of which has not been seen for years, Every one of the hotel fronts was fringed by a sea of faces that stretched smoke seemed to be their tomb. A reporter of the Post-Dispatcn had the utmost difficulty in convin. cing Judge Lindley that his family were out Mr. Paul Fusz, who boards at the hotel, insisted on going in to be sure that his wife was safe. He made his way up the stairs in spite of, the protests of the guests .who were in were badly scattered, tome went to the Hotel Barnum, others joined the curi- ous crowd that watched the flames hungrily in the streets. SAVING PROPERTY. As soon as it was seen that the hotel would not at least immediately burn, many of the guests made great efforts to save their effects. Ladders to the first floor windows were used to get out trunks and clothing. Elleard’s flower. store, which is under the hotel, was emptied the Salvage Corps. The drug store and Boutell’s grocery store were covered with tarpaulins, and the various stores on the Sixth street front were emptied as soon as possible. FIREMEN INJURED. In the midst of the bitterest attack of the flames and the most desperate efforts to suppress them, Jim Gray of the 14's was discovered to be suffocated by ithe gas and smoke. He was at workin the base- ment where the gas was the thickest. He was im- mediately brought out and sent to the Dispensary. At almost the same time [Fireman Fitz- simmons of the 16s was found on the third floor badly under the influence of the gas, and for a time it was thought he would not re- cover, but quick and ready hands got him out to the fresh air, where he revived somewhat. Scarcely had he been taken away when another victim was discovered in a man who was diligently doing his share of the hardest wok. When hurriedly carried outside it was ascertained that he was James Scott, a gasfitter. He was laid on the ground, and after the severest exertions he was restored to consciousness, He was taken to the Dispensary. Mr. A. Whipple, the insurance agent. was seen and said: “When I got on the ground, whica was pretty well toward the first, I looked up one of the wooden boxes surrounding the supply pipes and saw it was all ablaze, the flames being seen eating their way up the shaft in great red patches, and apparently ready to attack the upper floors.” The Flames Found, When every one supposed the fire had been con- fined, a brisk fame was discovered inthe rear of the cellar, under the barber on the Washington avenue side. Two streams were broug bt quickly into service, and not a moment too soon, for the fire had crept up the wood work like a flash, Even in the old reading - room two red spots were discovered, and, on knocking off the tiles, a tremendous shop, volume of flame was found. Strong odors of gas prevailed, making it absolutely unsafe to stay in plosion as the conquoring influences of the vapor. The firemen with the aid of citizens made a solid stand against the invasion of the marauder and overcame further destruction. The Mischief Done. At 6 o'clock the fire was out. did not go above the parlor did the chief m ischief the office. When the danger was over, the office presented a dismal picture. From a point ten feet the main the rear rail of the office proper, a distance of about sixty feet, the floor had all fallen into the basement, and none of the beautiful tiles were visible. The office desks and other furniture were a complete wreck. The parlor floor was drenched with water and the rich carpets looked like dirty rags. The flames and in floor, wide, entrance, to The Losses. The losses can only be approximated. The Lin dell Hotel building was worth at 4 o'clock this aft- ernoon $370.000. That was the figure that Plunger Walton offered and that Mrs. Marmaduke, the owner. refused. The building is thoronghly in- sured and a very conservative estimate of the dam- age, proximate and remote, puts the figure at $40,000 The Fotmer Lindell Hotel Fire. The original Lindell Hotel, completed in 1863, covered the whole block and was a model hotel six stories high of rich cream-colored magnesian limestone from the Grafton quarries. About 8:30 o'clock on the night of March 30, 1807, fire was discovered in the upper story and in a short time flames burs through the roof and spread on all sides with great rapidity. Owing to the great height of the build- ing water could not be thrown upon the building, and it was soon apparent that the structure was doomed, The four hundred guests were saved, and much of the furniture and stock. Within three hours the fire raged so fiercely that the water thrown on it few upward in sheets of steam and the firemen turned their attention altogether to the saving of the surrounding buildings. At midnight the walls fell and all that remained of what had been one of the most magnificent of American hotels wasa shapeless mass of ruins, The loss on buiding was $900,000 and on furniture, between $200,000 and $300,000, The New Lindell was degun on the site of the old one in September 1872, and was completed and open to the public September 28, 1874. It had a front of 10 feet this quarter not so much from the fear of an ex | a those near him. He see med le do the most placid man in the crowd. One half crazy guest stood at «a fourthstery window on the Sixth street side, and held a large trunk halfway over the sill for five min-ites, waiting for a chance to drop it to the sidewalk ata time when it would kill the smailest number of people, The yelling of the crowds finaily induced him to haul it back inside. H. Clay Sexton showed up at the fire and was worked up equal to the occasion. He rushed hither and thither giving orders the same as if he were chief, The efforts of the fremen to save the personal property on the endangered floors were very suc- cessful and in several instances the laddies were promptly rewarded onthe spot. One was given $15 for saving a big lot of cloaks, and another was paid $10 by a generous guest, whose valuable trunks had been carried to a place of safety. TYPHO-MALARIA-MENINGITIS. The Terrible Disease Now Ravaging Penn- syivania Villages. Wrixessarre, PA., April 28.—The terrible disease in Plymouth shows no signs of abating, and the a arm among the inhabitants is increasing. Yester- day afternoon, fourteen funerals of the victims of the disease were held and business throughout the borough was suspended. Along the ro e tothe cemetery the stores shut up and the people gathered ig knots, and gloomily watched the mournful pro- cessions as they wound through the town. At the cemetery the interments were all made within an hour or two. Many hundreds of people lingered: The municipal authorities bave set to work to re- move the cause of the epidemic. At daylight yes- terday morning twenty wagons with five men to each wagon started out, and under direction of tho members of the borough council began the work of clean: The town was divided into districts, the houses and yards of the residents were invaded, the cellars explored and every particle of rubbish, garbege. offal and ashes taken away, and the prem- thoreughly disinfected. * work will go on night and day, and. it is hoped, will be COMPLETED WITHIN FORTY-EIGHT HOURS, Yesterday six deaths were reported; a son of Rev. J. E. Walker,-a young Methodist minister; Miss Flora Beischer, 15 years old: Miss Annie ‘Trainor, 24 years old; Jacob Carroll, 16 years; Miss Carrie Sny- «ler, 20 years. aud an infant child named Lewis. Two other deaths were reported yesterday evening. A singular fact concerning this epidemic is tue large proportion of young men and women vetween the ages of 18 and 30 who have fallen victims. Fully three-fourths of the victims are between these ages. The alarm has been greatly increased by the fact tbat the epidemic is spreading and has ap- — in several neiguboring villages. Cases are 2 in Parkersville, Kingston, Avondale and er places in Piymouth Township. The utmost . prevails turoughout the district in cleaning up all garbige, ashes, etc., and in disinfecting houses. yards and outhouses. There are many por- tions of this city that are in a deplorab e condi- tion, so far as accumulations of ruvbisa are con- cerued, aud grave fears exist that the epidemio may ma<e.its appearance here In some households in Plymouth the distress is very great. In the family of James MvcAlarney, one son, 22 years old, died on Friday lust, and the father and four other cpidren are now prostrated by the disease, ieaving the mother and one chiid the only healthy members of the family, and they are very poor aud unable, now that the earnings of the father are stopped, to provide even the -ecessities of life, aud have to rely on the assistance of nvigh- bors and friends. The funeral of the young man took place yesterday, and the grief of the heart- broken mother, as the remains of her eldest son ere carried from — yea was heartrenaing. Is wed thattwo more of the children wiu die be- moning. Nathan Wolf, a married man with a. died on Saturday.

First Presentation of Polly, the Pet of the Regiment.“ 7 By Telegraph fo the Post-Dispatch. New Yor«, April 28.—‘*Polly, the Pet of the Regi- ment,” an opera in two acts whereof Mr. James Mortimer of London has supplied the libretto, and Mr. Edward Solomon of many places has furnished the music, was represented for the first time in this country at the Casino last evening. By to-morrow half the street urchins this side of the big bridge will be whistling We Are the Eignt Fair Daugh ters of the General, and two or three kindred airs, without knowing where the melody came from, or how it reached them.

Germany Not Anxlous to Act as Mcdiator—The Recent Battle in Afghanistan Greatly Increases the Danger of War—England Putting the Island of Bermuda ina State of Defense. ———_— = — London, April 28.—The news of another battle, though not as yet confirmed, has greatly increased the danger of war. The Times says that the rumor is probably the first oozing out of news which has been officially. suppressed. At present only the Independence Belge and the Daily News have re- ceived a report of the battle. It is presumed that a body of Russians followed a body of retreating Afghans, while scouting in the country for the purpose of collecting information, and per- haps pushed to Chamembeide, thus coming into contact with the Afghan troops on the direct route to Herat, or a similar movement may have been made from Zulfkar or Akrobat. At present there is nothing to show where the conflict occurred. The declaration of war is not expected to follow directly npon a rupture of diplo- matic relations. Baron De Staal and Sir Edward Thornton ‘WOULD BE RECALLED, ; and Russia would then probably order General Ko- maroff to advance on Herat, England meanwhile cocupying Quetta and Candahar. The fact that the Russian transport which passed through the Suez Canal and was then ordered back 1s still waiting at the entrance of the Suez Canal causes some anxiety. Grain freights to the ‘north of England from the dea of Azov were last week 968. and are now 886. ANXIOUS TO GET COAL. The first charter for coal to be sent to Cronstadt was made at West Hartlepool yesterday at 68 6d per ton, which is nearly 2s above last year’s rate. Russian importers are anxious to get coal early into the Baltic. All British merchant men have been in- sured against war risks. During the last few days t has been reported that the whole Russian coast of the Baltic has been strongly fortified, and that the approach at any point is dangerous, owing to the presence of torpedos and sea mines. COAL FOR BRITISH CRUISERS, Immense quantities of coal are being shipped to Cape Town, South Africa, for the use of British armed cruisers and men.of-war ip the event of an outbreak of war between England and Russia. THE RECENT BATTLE. Mr. Gladstone stated in the House of Commons this afternoon that the Government had received no confirmation of the battle reported to have re- cently occurred between the Russians and Afghans, with victory for the latter. Mr. Ellis Ashmead Bartlett, Conservative member for Eye, asked * * * 1 * as ject of closer relations, and on the fishery question, but it was not considered inthe public interest to state what had been done. : DAMAGING FLOODS. Oro, April . Reports from all parts of this vicinity state that the floods of this spring have been greater than for many years past. The town of St. Raymond was partly inundated, but the water is now receding. A VILLAGE UNDER WATER. Mowreszat, April 28,—The flood has abated about three feet since yesterday, and the worst is now over. Half of the village of Longuevil is under water and people have been obliged to abandon their houses. The waters lowered slightly this morning. ; Belgium. CAN ACOEPT THE TITLE. Brussets, April 28.—The Chamber of Deputies, by an unanimous vote,adopted the bill authorizing King Leopold to accept the title of Sovereign of the Con- go Free State in Africa. THE ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE. Members Going to the New Orleans Exposi- tion— One Vote. By Telegraph te the Post-Dispatch. - SPRINGFIELD, III., April 28.— There were but 142 members present at the joint session and only one vote was cast. It was Torrance’s vote for Logan. Several Republicans have gone south for a week and the result will be no voting this week. The absence of these Republicans gives others a good excuse for aceepting the invitation of the Illinois Central Road for a trip to New Orleans, especially as the usual vacation of one week for the spring elections was not taken, and it appears that a large majority will accept the invitation end start for New Orleans Thursday afternoon. Senator Bell intreduced a resolution this morning in the Senate, calling upon Congress for a convention to revise the Con- stitution of the United States, in relation especially to the manner of electing United States Senators, the President and Vice-President and for the elec- tion instead of appointment of minor Government officers. The House session was spent in a discus- sion of a bill to repair the State House. It was not settled and there will be an afternoon session. AUDRAIN COUNTY SCARED. Reported Cases of Pieuro-Pneumonia Near Mexico, Mo. By Telearawh tothe FPost-Disvatech. Mexico, Mo., April 28.—It was rumored that a farmer living in Wilson Towusbip, in this, Audrain County, had bought several cattle in Callaway County ata small sum and was feeding the same on his farm. As soon as the rumor became known yesterday afternoon, the citizens of tliat township called a meeting for the purpose o - yestigating the matter, but as nothing definite could learned, no action was taken, The meeting adopted resolutions to enforce the law in regard to cattle runniag at large. A committee of twelve was also appointed to meet in this city this oon to examine the quarantine law. Despite the efforts of a great many men and newspapers to make it appear to the contrary, there has not yet beena cae of pleuro-pneumonia discovered in this county. Ex- Governor C.

The disposition at this time, the official further states, is to main- tain rates, as all the lines are tired of ruinous cut- ting: and besides, there is enough business at this time to give the various roads a fair traffic. The strong lines will in the immediate future, he thinks, hold closely to the established rates. + PLYMOUTH'S PESTIiLENCK. The Epidemic Raging in the Lower Part of the Town.

Sheridan and Secretary Endicott. : — —— — The Lieutenant-General Issues Orders Without the Approval of the Secre- tary of War—An Order to be Issued by the President to Curtail the Gen- -eral’s Authority—The St. Louis Ap praisership—Collector Stewart Re- signs. | Wisnmorox, D. O. April 28.—For a number of days rumors have been rife in the War Department that an army order was forthcoming, which, when issued, would create considerable surprise. While no authentic information is obtainable from officials, it is understood that the order is to de issued by the President, and is to define the limit of the authority of the Lieutenant-General of the Army. It was an open secret for months prior to Secretary Lincoln’s retirement, that a controversy existed between bim and Lietenant-General Sheridan relative to the authority of the latter. The Secretary of War finally wrote a letter tothe Lieutenant-General, in which he defined the latter’s authority. It is as- serted that Gen, Sheridan has come in conflict with the new Secretary of War in regard to the same questions as to their respective rights of command. On the 9th inst. a general order was issued for certain regiments to exchange stations by June 1. This order was by Command of Lieu- tenant-General Sheridan.” It did not contain the name of the Secretary of War, nor the words “With the approval of the Secretary of War.“ Similar orders, as shown by the records, when issued by General Sherman contained the name of Secretary Lincoln, In the general order above referred to, the Second Reg- iment of artillery stationed at Wash- ington, was ordered to exchange with the Third Regiment of artillery, stationed in the Gulf States. Certain surgeons of the army have expressed themselves as bitterly opposed to this change at this season of the year. They say it would endanger the health of the unacclimated regiment, and the transfer would be especiaily dangerous because of A thre. ned sickly season inthe South. They say, further, that the regiment now stationed in the South js acclimated and can remain there without danger. Other offic.ais say this is the first order of tue kind issued ia the spring of the year. Secre- tary Endicott is now in Boston, The «xpected or- der, whica promrmes a surprise, will probably not be given out until his return to the department next Taursday. The St. Louis Appraisgrship. By Telegraph te the Post-Diapatoh. a Wasuincton, D. C., April W. —-Mr. Lauderdale, who is one of the latest candidates for the Ap- praisership at St. Louis, has had a very pleasant interview with the President and the Secretary of of the Treasury. He had a particularily pleasant talk with the President, who had already heard of him from friendly Albany sources. Mr. Lauder- dale found the President therefore favorably dis- posed to him in advance, If Mr. Lauderdale had not entered the contest so late, there would be no trouble about his appoiatment. As it is, it depends largely upon the position of Senator Vest whether Mr. Lauderdale succeeds or not. Mr. Vest has not yet openly committed himself te any one, TALK OF AN EXTRA SESSION. There is a good deal of tation here over the subject of an extra session inthe event of a war between Russia and Enyland. All of this talk is - lative, however, and has no real basisin offi- opinion or action here. It is hardly probabie that an extra session would be called in any event. To call Congress together to er a bill for free ships would be simply to afford occasion fora prolonged tariff debate. Few of the diplo- matic people here believe there will be any war. H REV. MR.

C., April 28.—Commissioner of Internal Revenue Miller s.id this afternoon that he had receivedthe resignation of Mr. Daniel A. Stewart, Collector of the Fourth District of Mis- souri, to take effect upon the qualification of hig successor. As far as he knew there would not be an appointment made for some time yet, as the department did not desire to act hastily in dispos- ing of Internal Revenue collectors. It was therefore likely that Mr. Stewart wouid remain in charge of his district for several weeks. The Shipping Commissioner. Wasninerton, D.

A Transfer Which Brings the Owner- ship of the Property Home to St. Louis—$40,000 Said to Have Been Paid for 500 Shares of Southern Hotel Stock, * — Ü— —-— — It has been generally known throughout the city that important changes in the management of the Southern Hotel impended. Yesterday these changes were announced. Messrs. J. H. and Thomas Breslin of New York have disposed of their interest to the Allens. and have witb. drawn entirely from the ownership of the hotel. A meeting of the directors was held yesterday after these changes were effected and an election was held for the ensuing year. W. R. Allen was elected president, George W. Allen vice-president, and J. . Wallace, secretary and treasurer, A change will be made on May 1, of the manager of the hotel. That position is now held by Mr. Ben Stickney, and on May 1, it will be filied by Mr. Harry E. Lewis, who was Mr. Stickney’s prede- cessor in this place. Mr. Lewis is one of the best known and most successful ho el managers in the country, and his return to the city will be an occasion of much felicitation among bis many friends here, A reporter called there was anything nt w to be told about the trans- fer. “Very little.“ said Mr. Allen. our brother have Breslin stock in the hotel company—500 shares!“ “Yes, that is true.“ “It is said that this stock is about eighty per cent paid up?” JOHN’ w. n.

You can put it that way ges are to occur?” “You already know all of them. The only thing which we were not ready to announce before was that Mr. H. E. Lewis will return to the hotel as man- ager on May 1. I don't believe that there is any- thing else which the public would care to know.” The Southern Hotel Company isa corporation w ich was formed for the 1 4 of leasing and renee the Southern Hotel. The building is now, as it has been all along, erty of the Thos. Al The 1 was formed with a capital of $200,000 of which one-haif, 8100. 000. was paid in at the start in 1881. The company has a iease on the building which expires in 1886. THE ORIGINAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE STOCK . was as follows: J. H. Breslin, 500 shares; W. R. Allen, 500 shares; Charles W. Warner, 500 shares; ll 2,000 shares of Mr. . was employed as the first manager. In December, 1881, it was stated that 6 per cent or $130,000 of the capital stock had been paid in. Capt. C. P. Warner took Mr. Bates’ place as general manager; he in turn was replaced by Mr. H. E. Lewis in May, 1884. At this time the stock was held just asjat Uürst. except that Mr. J. H. Bresliz had sold some of his stock to Mr. C. P. Breslin, who was chosen president of the compauy in the election of that year. Mr. John E. Mumford was manacer for a short time, and it was stated at this time that the hotel bad cleared 10 per cent on the investment during the year ending April, 1884, and that enough profits had been allowed to accu- mulate, to make with the payments, an investment of 80 per cent of th® capita! stock. During 1884 Mr. Ben Stickney was appointed „general manager. The Breslin stock, in aul 500 shares, was worth about $40,000, and it is said that about that sum was paid by the Allens for it. The hotel is now said to be paying a fair profit on the investment. The Allens, it is said, intend to secure entire con- trol of the property, and some furiber news may be anticipated from the hotel shortly. Mr. J. W. Waliace, the new secretary and treas- urer of the Southern Hotel, was auditor of the Iron Mountain Railroad durmg tie presidency of Mr. Thos. Alien, and after the sale of the road resigned his posi ion to accept tue management of Mr. Al- len's private estate. Police Pickups.

But, as it seems to be settled that the Republicans will give Judge ForaKER another chance, the probability is that Gov. Hoap ty will have to run against him once more. THE question as to whether the Bartholdi pedestal movement is popular or not was set- tled yesterday by the St. Louis National Bank, which sent us a request to open the little box which the directors had kindly permitted us to place on the counter. The box was full, and the amount it contained was 634 45, represent- ing the subscriptions of between three and four bundred people. — -— —— Maron Harrison of Chicago is probably the worst damaged man in the country.

If we want anything eitber from the Government or from the rail- roads or from any other source, we must wake up and hustle for it. ed MILITIA DRILLS. Wars and rumors of war abroad have direéted public attention to the contrast be- tween the vast armies of Europe and the little squeds of suldiers we maintain. The impor- tance of maintaining an army of volunteer militia, well trained and well equipped in each State, to defend the country in sudden emer- gencies and to form the nucleus of a more formidable army when serious war is forced upon us, is taking hold of the public mind just now, and the coming summer is to witness an unusual number of inter-State militia drills and encampments, at some of which it is hoped that every State in the Union will be repre- sented by crack companies and regiments. The preparations for the encampment and prize-drills at Mobile during the first week of May have been surpass- ingly extensive and complete, and as there are over seventy entries already it is probable that nearly all the States will be represented, and that it will be the largest mi- litia gathering we have ever seen in this coun- try. The commandant will be Gen. C. 8. BrentLy of Dubuque, and the judges will be | officers of the regular army assigned to the duty by the War Department, which will hereafter systematically participate in and foster these militia reunions as the best nursery of a national volunteer army. There is also a movement on foot, promoted by President CLEVELAND, Speaker CARLISLE and the Gov- ernors of New York, Connecticut, New Jer- sey, Pennsylvania and Kentucky, to secure the co-operation of all the States in a grand en- campment and prize drill in Fairmount Park Philadelphia, in July. All the famous gener- als, North and South, are encouraging and aiding the movement, and promise to do all they can by their presence and counsels to make the encampment such a success as to in- sure a repetition every year. It is proposed to pass these national encamp- ments around annually from State to State and from city to city, and thus create a more gen- eral popular interest in the institution of a volunteer army of citizen soldiers. Our people certainly do need educationin this direction. An army of any sort may be an evil, but it is a necessary one. We donot always need one, but, when we do, we need it suddenly and need it urgently. If we do not soon begin to main- tain a good-sized organization of citizen soldiers in each State, we shall be compelled to main- tain a much larger, much costlierand much more dangerous thing, a ent standing army of regulars. i A motion, fora rehearing of the argument in the Virginia coupon case is to be made, and it is to be hoped that the Supreme Court will reconsider the question involved. The late de- cision has not been well received by the press or the bar. It practically nullifies the Eleventh Amendment, by which the ddoption of the Constitution was secured, and the nullifying decision not only rests upon a vitiful quibble, but is the work of five justices whose opinions do not rank in authority with the opinions of the four who dissented. The Virginia statute was certainly an act of repudiation—an act impairing the obligation of a contract made by the State—and her own courts should have pro- nounced it unconstitutional and void. Never- theless, the observance of the Constitution in that respect was left to the honor and good faith of the States, their Legislatures and courts. As Ohief Justice Warrx and) Justices MILLI, Gaar and BRADLEY hold, in their dissenting opinions, the express purpose of the Eleventh Amendment was to put the States on their honor with reference to their own bonds, and to prevent the United States Courts from undertaking the adjudication and coliection of such claims against any State. Until . this de- cision nullified that amendment, every pur- | chaser of a State's bonds knew that he must look to her alone for payment and to her courts alone for his legal remedies. But now, by the transparent quibble that a suit against a State's fiscal agentson her contracts is not a suit against the State, the jurisdiction of the United States Courts has been extended over the very claims which the Eleventh Amend- ment expressly excluded from their jurisdic- tion. —— NRE — — — ee THERE is a good deal of the grand old man in GLADSTONE yet. His speech of one hour in Parliament yesterday proved him not only fully equal to the occasién, but master of the situation. It silenced, if it did not satisfy, the ‘jingoes, and it left the extreme peace men no ground for cavil. Every word was heard with intense interest. There was not a word of reply or criticism from any quarter when he closed, On the contrary, there was a burst of cheering and such an overwhelming vote in support of his policy, that the moral effect of his remarks abroad must be profound. They were as far removed from bluster or jingoism as from timidity. The British Empire was never placed in grander pose for peace or war, In stating England's position he showed no lack of magnanimous discrimination and con- sideration for the other side, no diminution of his anxiety to keep the way open for a and honorable adjustment. But there was no shrinking from the full assertion of all that England has a right to demand, and the words wherewith be marked the dead line which Russia must not pass were as terribly clear and distinct as they were free from mere menace. He spoke to his own people only, but the recep- tion gave to such words from such a man must make a deep impression in Russia, and all over Europe. — — Assistant HeaLte CoMMIssioner Francis promises that by the first of June St. Louis will be in first-class sanitary condition in every respect. St. Louis is one ot the healthiest Cities in the world, and can be kept healthy at 0 small expense. Its surface slope, its natural lines of main drainage, and the current and volume of the river make it the best drained of all great cities, and the good moral character of ita inhabitants contributes greatly to their health and longevity. Loves Children. From the Philadelphia Times. The President is a great lover of children, especi- ally girls. With his little golden -haired nieces and their co to his knees he passes some of his happiest hours, In his long rides he always bas one or more of these little prattlers at his side, and finds in their innocent talk a restful oblivion of the jealousies and deceits of public life. His fondness for children was éxhbibited in an amusing way on Taster Sunday morning. While standing at his window after breakfast he observed a number of little girls rolling eggs on the lawn back of the White House. His face at once lighted up with interest and he eagerly watched the vary- ing success of the contestants. At last one of the players perceived the figure at the window, and they all engaged in an impromptu conference for the purpose of inviting the President to take part in the game. A watchman was delggated to tender the invitation and in a few minutes the President appeared on the lawn, to the great delight of his little friends. While taking no active part in the contest, he lent unusual zest to the remainder of the game by his presence and the hearty applause with which be greeted every skillful roll, Railroads Superseding Canals. From the Boston Transcript. Some ten years ago Mr. Edward Crane defied the Massachusetts Legislature and the railroad men of the Stace of Massachusetts with a declaration that railroad transportation would yet be made cheaper than water transportation, and that railway com- petition vod drive out lake and canal transporta- tion. In the last quarterly report of the Treasury Review of Statistics (page 418) it is shown that the tonnage transported on the New York State canals has fallen from 6,442,225 tons in 1868 to 5,000,488 tons in 1884, while the tonnage on the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad has increased in the game time from 1.846.599 tons to 10.211,418 tons; on the Erie Road, from 8,900,000 to 11,071,000, and on the Pennsylvania, from 4,722,000 to 22,588,000. This is exclusive of the tonnage moved on the leased lines. The tonuage transported by rail on the four American trunk lines increased from 44,767,954 tons in 1880 to 53,549,316 tons in 1884. .

Or the eighty-one wholesale liquor dealers in Nashville, Tenn., sixty-eight are church members. BgeTnoven’s favorite violin is now in the pos- session of an English gentleman named Kirmoald.

Acconoma to a number of Mississippi papers there will be but little opposition to the re-election of both Senators George and Walthall. Otrven WIr Homes recently wrote to a friend that thirty years ago he considered himself “a very old man —older than he does to-day. Cufveianp hasn't held office for two months yet, but he can discourage an office-bunter quicker than any other President at the end of his fourth year. Herr Eye, Prince Bismarck's head cook, has been favored with a gold medal as a national token of gratitude for his care of the Chancellor's stom- ach. ; Sr Tasowas GuapsTrons, the Premier's only brother, is a Tory in politics, who" has passed his ninetieth year.

SecreTaRy Mannise bas under consideration sev- eral propositions for che transportation of $35,000,- 000 in gold coin from the Sub-Treasury in San Frffn- cisco to the Sub-Treasury in New York. It will cost $86,500 to move it. Tue will of the Hon. Thomas Hege of Franklin, Pa., provides that “should any of the officials of the Venango National Bank become conscience- stricken and conclude to return to his executors the $55,000 they stole from him, he bequeaths that aum, to the cemetery.” Alone the numerous invitations to General Grant to visit places favorable to his convalescence, the latest is the free use of a private hotel on Lookout Mountain, in sight of the battle-fields of Chickamauga, Mission Ridge, Lookout Mountain and Chattanooga. One of the pertinent conundrums put to ex-Presi- dent Arthur is how he happened to use his privilege of appointments at large“ so very much at large as to send a son of the late Central American Bar- rios to West Poiat. The answer probably is that as the son of a brother President it was all in the family, and hence there were no barriers to Bar rios. Tur son of Charles Dickens, who was at first re- ported killed at Fort Pitt, but who has happily es- caped, went to Manitoba some ten years since, and was made Inspector of the mounted police. He was afterwards promoted to be Chief Inspector. He is described as a plucky, dashing officer, inher- iting some of his father’s literary tastes, but fonder of adventure and open air life.

A Cm newspaper prints a portrait of a cele- brated ballet dancer, and then complains because the public does not recognize it. There is nothing remarkable about this. The likeness does not in- clude that portion of the fair danseuse which is most familiar to the public. Two centuries after Pocahontas had passed into primers, poetry and school histories as the savior of Smith, up turned an old Virginia record proving that the Princess was rather a disreputable young girl, who was more wanton than the playfulness of childhood would .warrant, and who used to roam around the English settlement as economically cos- tumed as if she were going to the opera or a ball or a dinner party in our own degenerate days. A Played Out Poet. From the New Orleans Picayune. Alfred Tennyson, in his new “Inefficient Fleet“ poem, points his finger at somebody and says: “When all men starve the wild mob's million feet will kick you from your place.” This black and blue and bruised possibility is quite vulgar and very ab- surd. When all men starve they will not have the strength or disposition to kick any one. And then the time wasted is to be considered. Say that it would take one second to put one foot in position and kick no higher than the shins of a Premier, only 8,600 kicks could be made in an hour, and the best part of two days would be spent before the mob's million feet could all have a kick at the gentlemen to be removed from office. Alfred himself should kick if he is ever again asked to write political poetry. a, THE METROPOLITAN PRESS. What the Editers of the New Yerk Jeuarnals are Saying To-day. By Telegravh to the Post-Dispatch. New Yor«, April 28.—The Womo says: “There seems to be a great deal of undue anxiety on the part of certain Republican papers to provide for Mr. James Russell Lowell. ex-Minister to the ‘Court of St. James,“ aud all sorte of suggestions are offered as to the places he might fill with credit to himeeif and honor to his country. These sug- gestions seer: superfluous, since Mr. Lowell is a man of independent fertune, and if he were not, he is quite capable of getting his living by his pen. Even some of the Eng'iah papers propose positions for our American poet and professor, and the latest is the possibility of his acceptance. ir the Place is offered to him, of the newly founded professorship of English literature in the University of Oxford. But if Engiand really wants to give Mr. Lowell a pe he is quite competent to fill, she should offer m the post of poet laureate, in which there is now a vacancy, a terrible vacancy, or at all events ‘insufficiency’ as the Baron remarks of the fleet.” THE SUN. The Sun says: “The element of promise for the Dominion Government thus far has been the very small number of half breeds engaged in the war, and the absence of any widespread Indian upris- ing. A few hundred of Riel's neighbors and a few bands of red allies have been doing all the mischief both in the Battleford and Fort Carlton region“ The chief danger is the successful encounters with the Government in the Northwest, which can only be put down at great cost. THE TIMES. The Times says: Some of the professed Demo- cratic journalists whoareso disconcerted at the success of their party that the suggestion of a policy gives them a chill, are at present much con- cerned lest Mr. Cleveland may urge upon Congress definite ideas regarding the tariff. They have en- tirely failed to understand how or why the Presi- dent was elected, and they appear to think that his very tenure of ot. ice depends on his remaining per- fectly passive. They have a half conscious sense of the fact that the _ not given power distinct principles it p viously avowed or to carry out any ideas that could be called strictly its own, They have no conception of the fact that their candidate repre- sen whatthe party did not, the reform senti- ment.“ THE TRIBUNE. The Tribune says: Capt. Phelan, with his life in one hand and a six-shooter in the other, bas ap- peared on the scene. He declares that he has come to testify against his assailant, Short, and to see that justice is done. We trust it may beso: 1 while the cold incredulous world would do wale ee stop saying that Phelan was never badly wounded and that the whole affair was a ‘put up’ job to in- crease the ‘skirmishing fund’ and the = Mi nA of Rossa s paper.” IH PEOPLE’S FORUM, Bad Meat. St. Lovuts, April 27, 1888. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I notice what is, in my estimation, a rather cranky argument of Gen, Stevenson's with refer. ance to meat inspection in to- days issue of your paper, namely, “that the owner of bad meat must be reimbursed if he be prevented from selling it.” Undoubtedly the Supreme Court is right in its rub ing, that a dead hog is property that the owner can not be deprived of without compensation.” 111115 He 25 : BS : i ness, to do as the e To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Your columns being always open to just com- plaints, I wish to call your attention to the fact that the Cable Road managers have had a bill introduced into the Council extending their time for its com- pletion twelve months.

An Editor's Description of a Kiss. From a Teras Exchange. A kiss is said to be sweet, not because it contains saccharine matter, but because a man doesn't know what else to call it when he feels the effect traveling through his system on a lightning express with no stop-over check. It is safe to assume that a man who attempts to describe a Riss never had one; men who have had kisses (not smacks) don’t want to talk; they just want to think and dream and with their boots on. So we have been told. A Justifiable Supposition. From the Jackson County (Ga.) Herald.

Ain't it strange that our marriageable youn men will pass by the true and honest worxing gir and take up with some society pet who's all is in her make-up? — a THE PREMIER'S PLEA. Gladstone's Speech in the House of Com- mons in Moving the Vote of Credit. In moving the vote of credit Mr. Gladstone said that the Government considered it necessary to have the entire resources of the empire well in hand for use and application wherever they may be required. Events since the fall of Khartoum have shown that El Mahdi’s power has collapsed. En- gland's possession of Khartoum would not put a stop to the slave trade, and therefore it would be useless to shed . blood and treasure in the Soudan. In regard to the alleged smallness of the special vote he reminded the House that it is the largest that has been asked since the Crimean war, and 18 also coincident with large increases in the annual army and navy votes. Furthermore, he said the case relates primarily to India. In order to fully appreciate the amount entailed it is requisite to know the extent of the measures being taken in India. The case is not one of war, actually or perhaps proximate. He did not feel called upon to define the degree of danger, but he would say in regard to the sad contingency ot an outbreak of war or a rupture of relatious with Russia, that her Majesty's Government had striven to conduct the diplomatic controversy in such a way that if it unhappily ended in a violent rupture they might at least be able to shatenge the verdict of mankind whether they had done all that they could do, and used every just and honorable effort to prevent the plunging of two such countries in bloodshed and despair.

Anson will bring no less than fourteen ball tossers with him, from which he will select his nine and the winning club will have to play good ball to be the victor. — No Reinstatement. After the directors’ meeting of the American Base-ball Association at Pittsburg, yesterday, an ac- count of which was published in yesterday’s Post- Disrarch, a general meeting of the Association took place, at which the question of reinstatement was considered. In the cases of Dave Rowe and Tom Dolan the Association declined to reinstate them. The Baltimore resolution, which prohibits any clubsin the Association from playing with clubs of any other association among whose play- ers there are recognized contract breakers, was strongly reaffirmed. Several resolutions were lu- troduced to expel the Metropolitan Club from the Association, but a fine of $500 was finally imposed, anda resolution introduced probibiting any club in the Association from employing the secretary of the Mets, James Mutrie, in any capacity. The League’s action in the case of the recently reinstated players was next discussed, and the fol- lowing resolution 2 — That the standing Conference Committee of the Association be requested to meet the Standing Con- ference Committee of the League and prepare this ultimatum: That, inasmuch as the Nationa) Leagne has seen fit to set aside the penalties of its reserve rule when it conflicts with the interests of said League, this Association will no longer to abide by that part of the National agreement which relates to the reservation of players by the various clubs parties to the said National agreement regulating such reservations, but chat they will join with the National League in respecting all that part of the National agreement which refers to contracts made and promulgated from time to time by various associations party to said agree- ment, and that part of the National agreement reg- ulating such contracts. This Association further instructs its Conference Committee to ask the National League to join with it for a u for a meeting of the Arbitration Commit within thirty days, to reconstruct the National agreement to that it may conform to the above requirements. * Games Yesterday.

Every body in St. Louis knows Mr. John Lady, who has been for many years past a well known financial agent, in whose care a great deal of money has been pluced for investment by Eastern and home capitalists. For some years past Mr. Lady has been suffering from kidney disease, a fact very evident to all who have called at his office, 805 Olive street, which has contained more medicine bottles than records, For some days past Mr. Lady has exhibited signs of mental alienation, and these yesterday became very violent,so much so that Mr. Rumbold, the physician who attended Mr. Lady, pronounced him affected with acute mania, It was decided to remove Mr. Lady to St. Vincent's Asylum for treatment and care. The pa- tient was very violent, and it is said that it required the services of a number of ns to ut him into the carriage that imtothe Asylum. Mr. Lady fought most des- 1 to prevent his attendants taking him away rom his home on n and ne streets, and he wentto the Asylum entirely against his will. The removal was only decided upon after a consultation between Dr. Rumbold and Dr. Bauday, and the family hope that after a short time Mr, Lad y will be fully restored to health. ‘Tur coops, whips, horse clothing, lap dusters and stable furniture at J.

Laid Out for Judge Van Wagoner in the Criminal Court. * The Docket for the May Term as An- nounced Te-Day—The Case ef Newman, the Cattle King, and Others—The Setting in Detail. The docket of the Criminal Court for the May term,which extends over eight weeks, was arranged to-day. A murder case is docketed for each Mon- day during the term. As the summer adjourn- ment comes with the July term, Judge Van Wagoner has decided to clear the docket of the old cases during the ensuing two months. The May Grand Jury will meet on the 5th prox. When called in Court the manslaughter cases against Charles Koebel will be abated on account of the defendant's death. The Jenning’s case of forgery will also be wiped from the docket as the testimony elicited in a former hearing of aforgery case failed to justify the in- dictment. The cases of Charles Newman, alias Parker, the bogus cattle king, who has not escaped the memory of a number of St. Louis business men and victims, will be continued generally. While in Jail Newman played sick, and his release on personal bond was recommended by the Grand Juries. Under this condition Judge Van Wagoner took the prisoner's bond and released him.

The was $50 70, which brings the total to $601 77. This sum is exclusive of any benefits, and represents the offerings of individuals prompted by va- triotic interest in -the erection of the ped- estal The total number of subscribers to this amount is 998, within two of a thousand. The result of yesterday's subscription shows that the interest instead of diminishing is increasing, and that the people of the West as weil as of the East, are determined to prepare a fit reception of the gift of France. It is not likely that the American peo- ple will allow Liberty to act the mendicant on her native shores, nor that they will not treasure in their hearts the remembrance of the most glorious — in American history of which the statue is the commemoration. , Viewed in this light, the appeal to every citizen is very strong. This is the light in which it snould be viewed and is viewed by the majority of the ople. There can be no more wholesome and last - ng lesson in the best part of American history given to a child than by giving it a personal share and interest in the memorial of American Independ- ence. No teacher could impress the result of the Revolution more strongly than by bringing the object of the present national subscription before their minds. It is a text prolific of historical teach- ing. These are consideration which appeal to every intelligent citizen and are worthy of attention. There can be no doubt now that St. Louis will do her share and that if other cities do as well, the pedestal will be built without delay or difficulty. Both the repetition of the art reception and the benefit at the Star Rink last night were excellent successes and will materially swell the total of the St. Louis coutributioh. The ‘liberality of the man- agers furnish excellent exampies for others to foilow and is creditabie to them. Mr. Kieselhorst's offer of the De Kontski concerts is on a par with them, and if there is any love of fine music in St. Louis, Memorial Hall will be crowded on both occasions, WA — . * * * J 2," 5 7777.

THE WAGES OF SIN, A Philadelphia Lothario Sustains a Fatal Fall While Fleeing. By Telegraph te the Pest-Dispaten, PHILADELPHIA, PA., April 28.—At midnight on Saturday George Doherty, a married man, aged 40 years, was admitted to a hospital in a dying condi- tion. His skull and leg were fractured, and he had sustained other injuries. Late Sunday night he died. Yesterday it was learned that Doherty had met his fatal injuries while escaping from the house of John Smith, with whose wife he had been unduly intimate. Smith had for some time sus- pected that his wife had been unfaithful, but his necessary absence from home a great part of the time prevented him from watching her closely. A few days ago he questioned her about Doherty, but she indignantly DENIED ALL ASSOCIATION WITH HIM. During Smith's absence Saturday night Doherty visited the house and was admitted by the guilt woman to her bedroom. At 11:30 o'clock Smit entered quietly and found the door of the room locked. He at once burst it open, and as he entered Doherty sprang through a window, while Mrs. Smith fled, screaming, down. stairs. Doherty alighted on a stable roof and grasped the spouting, which broke, and he was hurled to the pavement. His skull was crushed, his nose nearly severed and his left leg fractured in two places. Doherty's wife is blind, but sue identified his body yesterday by her sense of touch. She says he treated her kindly = drank very little. Smith will enter suit fora vorce.

Many years ago while traveling on horseback through the rugged defiles of the Eastern Cau- casus, I happened to make the acquaintance of a Russian officer who has since attained high distine- tion, who now occupies one of the most delicate and responsible positions in Centrai Asia, and upon whose judgment, discretion and self-restraint may depend the question of peace or war on the fron- tier of Afghanistan. I refer to Colonel Alikhanoff, Governor of Merv, member of the Afghanistan Boundary Commission and commander of the Rus- sian advance at Penj-deh. I was on my way from the armed line of the Terek to Temir-Khan-Shoura, the seat of the provincial government of Daghestan, and had just crossed the rugged mountain range of Andi, which separates Daghestan from Chechnia. Tired, hungry and thirsty from long travel, I rode down late one Octo- ber afternoon into à little oasis of greenery at the bottom of a deep valley walled in by gray desolate mountains and entered a small village of flat-roofed adobe houses known tothe Russians as the Aoul of Botlekh. There was, of course, in this remote and secluded mountain settlement no inn or hotel where a traveler could obtain food or shelter, and I therefore stopped at an 2 booth in the bazaar near the village mosque, ght a loaf of bread and half a dozen bunches of grapes, and sat in the saddle eating them while my interpreter went in search of the head man of the village. A crowd of wild-looking mountaineers attracted by my unfamilar West- European dress gathered about me and proceeded to discuss in the inost animated manner the probable nationality of this strange- om foreigner and his object in visiting Daghes- tan. Just as their scrutiny and comments were be- inning to become annoying an orderly, in the uni- form of the Caucasian native cayalry, elbowed his way through the crowd, touched bis hat to me and inguired in Russian whether I was the “armenian traveler.“ I repiied that I was a traveller but not an Armenian.

I soon dis- covered that the range of Captain Alikhanoff's knowle ge and experience was much wider than I at first supposed. He read and spoke fluently both Freuen aud German; he received regularly at his louely post of duty in the mountains of Daghestan the Levue des Deux Mondes and half a dozen other French and German magazines whose names I have now torgottea; he was surprisingly well acquainted with our country and its history, knew something of our literature, and had, I remember, a Russian transiation Of Longfeliow’s “Evangeline” in his small, but well-chosen library. The favorable im- pression which he made upon me at first sight deepened with every successive hour of our friendly intercourse, and when I finally went to my room that night strongly under the influence of his peculiar charm of manner, I could not help saying to myself: What a splentlid specimen of the young Russian officer of the best class! How did he ever come to be buried in this miserable little mountain Village? a . AFTER BREAKFAST THE NEXT MORNING, while Captain Alikbanoff was writing at his desk and I was turning over one of bis Russian maga- zines, a mountaineer in a bigh, muff-shaped shee skin hat and a long black kaftan, with his belt full of glittering weapons, entered the room and ad- dressed my host in one of the native languages of * estern Daghestan, whose peculiar strangling clicking articulation seemed to me to set civiiiz organs of speech at defiance. Captain Alikhanoff replied in the same language, bringing out the clicks, cherks and gurgles with as much facility as if he were assisted by the in- termittent gripe of a friendly hand at his throat. When the mountaineer had retired I said to my host: “It seems to me that you are à very young man to have acquired such a language as that. If I had not — had evidence to the con- trary I should say that it would be utterly impos- ble for any civilized human being ever to learn that strangling articulation.” “That is my native language,” replied Alikhanoff, Did 78 — “T ** it at my mother’s knee, suppose me to . casian wt mad & Russian?

Toronto, April 28.—A cable dispatch from Lon- don to the Globe says: The general half-yearly meeting of the Grand Trunk Railway Company was held yesterday for the purpose of receiving the directors’ report and electing directors. Sir Henry Tyler occupied the chair. The report showed that the revenue for the half year ended December 81. 1884, was £1,821,747. against 22.054.248 during the corresponding period in 1883. The working ex- penses were £1,331,783, against £1,396,496. or 73.10 per cent against 67.98 per cent in 1883, leav- ing a surplus of £489,964, against £057,752. The addition of various other revenue items makes this surplus £537,197, against £756,608 in the last half of 1884. When the interest on the debenture stocks and bonds, the rent of leased lines and the interest on subsidiary lines, amounting to £411,807 is deducted. there remains a net revenue balance of £125,890. This is sufficient for the payment of the full half yearly dividend of 4 per cent on the guaranteed stock, and of a dividend at the rate of I per cent per annum on the first preference stock, leaving a small balance to be carried forward. Sir Henry Tyler made a long explanation of the causes which have conspired together to bring on the depression in the road's business.

It is stul more to his credit tuat he took a place which does not reserve all of the glory to himseif. It is not by any means a one-part play. but it is balanced with several strong characters. While Lanciotto is the central figure, ali of the interest does aot cluster about im, but is distributed in se- eral directions. Mr. Barrett nas not atiempted to reserve the chief glory to himself. He shows his breadth of mind by giving the production generous treatmeat and sacrificing some of his own superiority to the good of the entire performance. One of the first impressions that strikes one forcibiy is that Lanciotto’s presence on the stage is not es- sential to the interest in the piay, and in some scenes where he is pr sent tue work is evenly di- vided. While this is aitogether excellent it detracts from the commanding position which stars usualiy assume for themseives, andis aptto disappoint those who go to see Barrett in particular.
