The poor fellows will obtain little or nothing, for the bosses cannot afford to pay down. Competition is too great, and PURSES SHRINK DAILY. f Meanwhile, as is always the case with such situa- tions, the sufferings of the victimized women and children, helpless hoping, are becoming frig to consider. Nowhere does charity seem to Bi more bountiful scope, however, and nowhere does money seem more plentiful.

No one believed in Krauss until one day a Conservatoire concert gave her an op- portunity of singing “Fiuileo.” Then Paris took fire. She knocked at the doorof the Grand Opera, but it remained closed. She went to Naples and to Milan. There the italians understood her tragic force, fire aad accent, and admired her con- scientious daily excellence, while they CRIED “PECATTO" to the veiled quality of nature's gift.

Conn., June 5.— Mrs. Grace Robin- ‘pon, wife of Samuel Robinson, an employe of Hool- ley's carriage manufactory, this city, died in her home in West Haven May 25. Tetanus was the al- aged cause of death. Subsequent disclosures, how- Her, tend to show that she was the victim of mal- practice at the hands of an unknown physician, and the police are working on the case.

A church Excited Over the Reinstatement of a Suspended Member. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. Wonrcrstrr, Mass., June 5.—Piedmont Church, in this city, the largest and one of the wealthiest Con- gregational Churches in Central Massachusetts, is anxiously awaiting the decision of the arbitration committee in the case of Deacon Rufus N. Meriam. Ten years ago the wood-working machinery firm of Richardson, Meriam & Co., of which Mr. Meriam was a partner, suspended payment with obligations amounting to about $200,000. An agreement to pay 88 per cent in three annual instailiments was made with the creditors, and the business was conducted under the nominal direction of trustees. At the end of the first year there was no money to pay the first instaliment, and an investigation showed that the nominal assets of the firm had shrunk $50,000 or $60,009, and that the debts of the concern had in creased something like $12,000, THIS DISCOVERY CAUSED A SENSATION, and the firm was thrown into bankruptcy under the national bankruptcy act, in force at that time, The assignees discovered that there had been venality on the part of the firm, and brought crimina! pro- ngs in the United States Circuit against Mr. Merriam one of his partners for concealing the assets. Tus case was never brought to trial, having been adjusted by the payment of several thousand dollars. The were confident they could have sent both mento State Prison, but they preferred to accept the money in the interest of the creditors. Among these creditors were scores of employes and some members of Piedmont Church, from whom the deacon had obtained loans when the firm was on tie verge of failure. These people were indignant that the criminal suit had been compromised and determined that the deacon’s crimes should not go unpunished, by the church, at least. A long investigation by a church | committee was followed by several church meet- ngs. the result of which was the erring deacon was indefinitely SUSPENDED FROM HIS CHURCH RELATION by a vote of 69 to 11. The committee found that he was 8 if not legally. guilty on the following charges: Obtaining money under false pretences; retaining and co assets from his credit ora, false swearing. before the bankruptcy court and appropriating to his own use trust fund which he people to suppose was securely invested ina savings bank. This transaction occurred in 1877. The ex-deacon's friends have stood by him firmly, and he has attended regularly the Sunday and week-day meetings of the church. Oue or two ef- forts have been quietiy made to secure his reiu- statement. but they were unsuccessful, although the number of his opponents seemed to be growing less. Finally, at a churcli meeting, a few wee«s ago, a letter from the deacon was presented, asking reinstatement, The meeting was not numerously attended, only by bis friends, having notice that this was to come up, andthe request was granted by but one dissenting voice. The action created so much excitement when it became known that Mr. Gates wrote a letter to the deacon to withdraw his request for reinstatement. Tbe request could not be granted, however, it having been acted upon. Soive members of the church were so deepiy grieved that they deciared they would leave the church provided Deacon Meriam again became a member. They ovjected to bim on ‘he ground that he had NEVER MANIFESTED CONTRITION for his shortcomings, and that tne methods em- ployed by him aad his frieads in securing the vote of reinstatement were discreditabie. A split in the ' church seemed imminent,when the pastor, the Rev. Dr. Meers, suggested an arbitration, to which both parties unally comsented, agreeing to abide by the result. The foliowing Commiitee of Arm bitration was selected: The Rev. Dr. Henry L. Dexter of Boston, A. II. Quint of Somerville, A. H. Pium ot Boston, Walcott Caikins of Newton and E. Cutler of Winchester. Tue committee met in Boston a few days ago and heard the testimoay of the r and of ihe representatives of both factions in the church. It is expected that the re- sult of their deliberations wul be announved at the regular church meeting to be held next week. lhe general unpression is inat Mr. Meriam wid he al- owned to remain in the churcn, though, in deference to tue of those who nave opposed his ro- instaiement, he may be required to mase somo turtuer agcaoowledgment of errors. ASWELL SVINDLER. The Dishonest Operations of the Gallant Captain Hastings Hugh Fraser. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New Yorks, June 5.—Up to within a few weeks ago there were few more familiar figures on the “Upper Rialto.“ as the dstrict about the Bijou Opera House, Wallack's and the Fifth Avenue The- aters is becoming known, than that of Capt. Has- tings Hugh Frazer, late of Her Majesty's Horse Guards (Blue). His sudden disappearance about ten days ago was therefore the occasion of much comment and ioquiry, the result of the latter revealing the fact that the Captain had been em gaged in many shady check transactions, by which means he had swindled his friends and acquaint- ances out of a pretty large sum. Capt. Frazer is said to be the son of the late Cal. Bob Frazer, one of the most respected officers in the favor ite regiment, the First Life Guards (Biue). Inher- iting uis father’s wealth amd position, Capt. Frazer cut quite a swell it His income was not enough to cover bis expénd:tures, and fe found it imperative to retire from the army, and resigned bis commission.

A Special Grand Jury to Take Up the Case on Monday. — Ecẽ Chro Pock, the First Murderer, Denies Everything—He is Positively Identified as the Man Who Used the Dagger—The Verdict of the Jury Curious Scenes Caused by the Identi- fication of the Prisoners. 4 CHYO rock. Chyo Pock, the chief one of the Chinese “bigh- binders” who were concerned in the assassination of Lou Johnson, was arrested last night. This was the last of the murderers left at large, and his ar- rest completed the case. The interest in the in- quest became even more pronounced owing to Chyo Pock's arrest, as the whereabouts of this scoundrel was unknown. He was seen taking a twilight walk on Market street, near Sixth, yes- terday evening by some of the Cantonese China- men, who immediately made a rush at him, calling out “Tong Sch,“ which means murder“ and “murderer.” Chyo Pock dived into the Jo Cann laundry and made his way out through the rear. The Cantonese followed, but were delayed by the people in the laundry, who were members of the Hong Kong Society, and Chyo Pock got away. His trail was pick ed up again in a few minutes, and he was shadowed to Franklin avenue, whence he turned back. Near Sixth and Market a crowd gathered and a regular chase began which ran the murderer to earth in a few minutes. Detective Leonard arrested the murderer desvite his protests and his statement “Meno Chyo Pock.” He was run in at once, and kept secluded from the other risoners. This moraine about 9 o'clock @ was brought into the Chief's office into the presence of Chief Huebler, Batiste, another ‘ (Chinaman and a Post-Dispatce reporter. The sec- ond Chinaman identified the prisoner at once as Chyo Pock. This latter is as different from the published descriptions of him as could be well con- ceived, He is a tall, large-featured Celestial, with- out arign of small-pox in his face, He has not eyes of a glittering hazel, which are shrouded by a pair of dongh-colored lids that drop like a pair of curtains when one attempts to look at him. He is sallow-faced, and has a most pecullar trick of keeping his little mouth gaping open, something like an ichthyological specimen, and displaying two rows of very white and strongteeth. His ears run into his neck in an acute angle. Indeed, when one looks at him and remembers the absurd de- scriptions which have been published, one is forced to believe that a hypothetical Chinaman was gotten up for the special use of the police. That such excel- lent workin running down murderers should be done, is a wonder in the face of the facts, and were it not for Batiate, it is certain that this work would not have been done at all. Of course, Chvo Pock refused to confess anything to the Chief. He came to this city some months ago and has passed his time since a smoking opium. He had no money, but he was a guest of Chyo Gon's, „ho suppli his necessities, He knew nothing about the murder of Lou Johnson and would swear a hundred oaths on all that Chinamen hold most sacred that he had not been near Lou Johnson's house on Monday. This was about all of it. He met every question with a stolid denial and exhibited no feeling whatever. IN THE CORONER'S OFFICE this morning it became evident that a great array of counsei had been retained to defend the Chinese murderers. Judge Henry D. Laughlin demanded, as counsel for Chyo Gon, that the inquest be post- ed until auotber interpreter could be brought from New York, claiming Batiste was not to be relied upon. — Coroner declined to adjourn the inquest, Be- edes Judge Laugl liv, Messrs. Martin & Fauntle- — . Ben Clarke, Charles Noland and Colonel Clai- rne have been retained for the defense of the im- licated Chinamen. Indeed the expenses of the efense will make a very. serious drain upon the Hong Kong society's exchequer. l intment was felt this morning at the failure of Ah Tung to appear in the city. Among Chyo Gon's effects were found two te! 8, stat- ing that this Chinaman would arrive this morni on the train from San Francisco, It was sup that he would be able to sive some information about the case, He did not come in, however. THE INQUEST. The inquest on the body of Lon Johnson 10:40 a. m. Chyo Pock was taken to the and sworn both in English and Chinese fashi the corpse.

A SPEEDY TRIAL TO BE HAD. In the Criminal Court tuis morning Circuit Attor- ney Clover made a motion asxing Judge Van Wag- oner to order another and a special Grand Jury for the present term of court. Tue reasons given were that since the discharge of the regular Grand Jury an emergency had arisen which would justify suco action; that the particular matter is the recent as- gasaination of Lou Johnson; that the murdered man and his murderers are all Cninamen, and that the crime appears to have been effected by a con- Spiracy, and resulted from a feud existing between the memuers of toat race in thiscity.. The chief witness for the State and the only competent interpreter obtainable is one James C. Batiste, a Deputy Sheriff of the city of New York. Mr. Batiste’s official duties compel him to return to New York within a week, ing the next session of the regular Grand Jury. It ig impossible to prove the desired facts by any other person than Batiste.

WASTING WATER. “The way that the citizens are ysing up the water this hot weather is alarming,” Water Rates Col- lector Mott remarked this moraing. June 2 the reservoir contained 22,3 feet of water; June 8 it had fallen to 20.4 feet. June 4 to 10.6, while to-day it ig only 17.9. The reckiess manner in which water is wasted during very hot weather is largely acoount- able for this falling off in the rved supply. With only five men to the waste of the whole city, it is impossible to check it thoroughly. If wa could get twenty additional inspectors at work for a short season, we would soon see the supply in the reservoir increase again." CONFISCATED MEASURES.

OS — — THE poor we have always with us. At this - peason of the year poverty is represented by the railroads who ask the assessors to assess them lightly. In addition to its other uses, cocaine is now gaid to be a cure for melancholy. It has not been fully tested, but if it can cure the mel- ancholy which affects Mr. LancasTzR when- ever he contemplates the outside of the new Custom House, its remedial properties will be beyond question. Deputy MARSRHAL. Porn Covzins is in Washington attending a convention of chari- ties and corrections. Miss Covuzins believes that charity should begin at home, and that the correction should be applied to any one who attempts to interfere with the Marshal- ship of the Eastern District of Missouri, SEE Tue event of to-morrow will the opening of the new race track, an event almost important enough to justify a municipal holiday. For the first time in the history of St. Louis, it has races which are up to the highest point of in- terest, and which are acccessible cheaply, easily and conveniently, and in a locality which has every possible attraction, and which enjoys the prestige of popularity. Henry Warp Brrcrer'’s son, HERBERT Foorr Brrcnrn, has been given a good berth J in the Puget Sound Customs District, although his distinguished father refused to put in a word for him. Mayhap, if Plymouth's pastor will make a little louder sp}utter about not asking office for his relatiyed, he may find all his brothers-in-law billpted on the Government the first thing he Knows. We have a very melancholy case of that kind in Missouri, *° — — Sronxranr Baranb's remarks on Change, in which he defined his position on the question of Mississippi River improvement, created a most favorable impression. and called attention in a striking manner toa great public matter which is always of deep interest to our people. This interest cannot be more properly recog- nized than by publishing in full, as we do in another column, the short speech of Hon. Jon M. GLOVER at the recent New Orleans Conven- tion, which we take from the official report of the proceedings. — GN. W. S. Rosrcranz succeeds B. K. Bruce as Register of the Treasury. The successor of Mr. Bruce was a distinguished Union sold ier. BRUCE was nothing but a professional colored man and a Republican politician. The Repub- licans lavished offices and emoluments on poli- ticians who never saw a battle, or who saw battles from the ‘wrong side, as Mossy and LONGSTREET did, and for twenty years past more than half of the Union soldiers have been a proscribed class, who had to wait for the election of a Democratic President before they could get an appointment under the Govern- ment they fought so hard to save, — nn ns In one of his poems relating to the early days of Harvard College, Dr. Houmes pleasantly pictures college life in the lines: Lord! how the tutors knocked about That Freshman class of one! This seems to be about the condition of the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy at Rolla, which will hold its graduating exercises next. Thursday, and which presents two candi- dates for the degree of Mining Engineer, and one for the degree of Civil Engineer. There does not appear to be any standard rule in this State as to how many students are required to make a college, and we believe that even Wash- ington University is not above the absurdity of maintaining professorships for cl asses of one. CLUVERIUS was unanimously and promptly convicted of the murder of Miss Fanny Liuian Mapisow bya Richmond jury after the case had been under investigation for a month. The evidence against him was circum- stantial, but so strong that there seems to be in Virgiaia no doubt of his guilt. After it ap- peared that he bad wronged and betrayed the girl, the public feeling was that he deserved death for that,. and this feeling has perhaps prevented the roasonable doubt“ from operat- ing in his case as potently as it generally does in murder cases. As the wrong he did her was the cause of her death, even if she committed suicide, the popular verdict holds him a mur derer, anyhow. 22 Tun most interesting art item of the year is the announcement in the New York Sun that the alleged statue of Ovsrzr at West Point has been taken down and pitched aside as rubbish. This ‘was done at the solicitation of Mra. Cosren and of all of the friends of the dead hero, but the gain to art isnot less than the ae 3 1 * oe 8 ~~ 1 job. Nobody knew what kind of a horror he was fabricating until the dime novel monument was unveiled. At once there was a demand for its removal, and at last the demand has been complied with. The objectionable monu- ment has been removed and West Point is re- lieved of one of its terrors. It would be well ir the same relentless justice could be shown elsewhere, j a ‘RAILROAD ASSESSMENT. It is the official duty of the State Railroad Commissioners to obtain minute and accurate information about our railroad interests. Our laws aid them in the acquisition of such infor- mation, compel railroad companies to furnish it to them, and require them to lay it before the Legislature and other State authorities in a well-digested shape. 3 In the discharge of their duty these Commis- sioners have for years past laid before the Leg- islature and the State Board of Equalization sworn statements of the earnings, expenditures, cost and capitalization of the railroad property subject to taxation in this State, and sworn estimates of its fair value for purposes of taxa- tion. But these statements and estimates have been ignored by the Board, and rail- road property has been assessed at the absurdly low value put upon it by certain gen- tlemen who combine the occupation of the salaried railroad attorney with that of the chief engineer of Democratic committees and conventions. Gentlemen who can provide the sons of statesmen and of influential politicians with lucrative railroad sinecures, or who can make themselves useful in getting up cam- paign funds and lavishing free passes where they will do the most good, seem possessed of a very yersuasive eloquence and to exercise a very potent influence at Jefferson City. Again the Railroad Commissioners have laid before the State Board of Equalization their sworn statement and estimate of the fair taxa- ble value of the railroad property in this State, putting it at nearly three times the amount at which the State Board has hitherto assessed it. On the basis of gross earn- ings officially reported at $30,153,399 and net earnings officially reported at $10,090,414, the Commissioners value the property at $103,528,555. This allows the property a net earning capacity of 10 per cent on the valua- tion. Is there any other property in Missouri assessed at a lower rate than that? What house in St. Louis brings its owner a net rental of 10 per cent on the value at which it is listed for taxation?’ What improved farm of arable and pasture land in Missouri nets its owner an- nually 10 per cent or even 5 per cent of its assessment? The valuation of this railroad property for taxation by the State Board is only $38,380,316. This allows the railroads a net earning capacity of 30 per cent. There is a startling disparity between such a valuation and that at which the railroad owners themselves capitalize their property. According to Poor’s Manual for 1884, the standard authority on such matters, the 5.216 miles of railroad line operated in Missouri cost, with its equipment, $308,884,233, or nearly ten times the value fixed upon it by the State Board. It represents a capital of 8365, 284, 966 invested in stock and bonds, on which interest and dividends to the amount of $12,679,142 were paid, and the net earnings for the year, after paying all operating expenses, amounted to $15,154,313. With net earnings almost equal to half of the assessed value of the property, it paid that year only $518,000 in taxes, when, if assessed at one-third of its cost, the valuation of the Railroad Commissioners, it would have paid $1,500,000, The people and the press of the State are be- ginning to ask if this discrimination in favor of railroads and against all other property is to be continued, and, if so, why? The reason for it is not found in any principle of equity or of sound public policy with which we are ac- quainted. an Tux ironworkers’ strike gives Mr. ANDREW CARNEGIE a fine opportunity to illustrate his principles both as a Communist and as a high tariff man. He is the possessor of many mill- ions representing profits on the labor of these strikers whena high tariff enabled employers to extort monopoly prices for the products of thatlabor. Now the men who have toiled so long in the heat of the iron furnaces are out on astrike againsta reduction of wages, and the prospect is that they may be kept locked out till starvation compels them to accept any wages they can get. According to Mr, Carnz- em's protection theories, the tariff was for their benefit chiefly, and they are entitled toa large share of the money which protection kept in the country. But they don’t seem to have any of it. According to Mr. CarnneGcix’s Commun- istic doctrines, they are entitled to a pro-rata share of the accumulated wealth of the country, but don't seem to have any of that either. Un- der a double obligation of fidelity to his own principles, Mr. CaRnEGIs is therefore bound to step forward and divide with these strikers, But they will probably become very hungry be- fore they receive any contribution from him, and before they find him practically promoting their views or his own professed opinions in regard to the fair apportionment of earnings between labor and capital. Tae collar which confines the neck of the “rabid editorial hyena” of the Springfield, (Mo.,) Herald is the collar of the Jay Gould system, and the chain thereof is held by Jonn O'Day, who represents the legal and political interests of the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad Company. The instructions given to the aforesaid hyena are, to bark whenever Mr. ODar yanks the chain, and we infer that he has recently yanked it right hard to produce the following ululation wherewith the editorial columns of the Herald is decorated: The Post-Dispatom refers to the interview had tom ua columns, we shall object to its mixing authoritatively in our affairs. WESTERN WATERWAYS. Glover's Address Before the New Orleans , Convention. From the Official Report. Mr. Glovér, upon being introduced to the conven- tion, spoke as follows: , As a representative in the Lower House of one of the greatest cities in the Mississippi Valley, I am giad, and I esteem it a great honor, to be entitled on this occasion to addreas the representatives of 30,- 000,000 of people engaged in that cause which is the supreme question of the present hour, engaged in the improvement of the grand river system which has been, in time past, through its influence upon the agricultural and commercia! interests of this country, the means of ransoming not only the peo- ple of the United States, but of the whole world from a financial panic. Now, gentiemen, this city, the Crescent City of the Mississippi Valley, at thistime and at this place, is the proper place to hold a convention of this kind, when the World's Exposition is under your charge, because the question in which you are interested is not only national, but international and continental in its character. We are summoned | here through tne call of the Executive Committee who have in charge this great undertaking, to con- sider the fact and to devise some means of obviat- ing the effect of the failure of the last House of Representatives to take proper action on this matter. It seems to me that, throughout this broad land, from the northern end of this valley to the Gulf of Mexico, and from one range of mountains on ‘the east to the other on the west, that man, or that class of men, who undertakes to say that the im- provement of the Mississippi River and its navi- gable tributaries bas not passed from being an ex- periment to an accomplished fact, only illustratés the prejudice too often founded on wishes alone. [Applause.] I do not find, gentlemen and repre- sentatives of this great theory,that there is threugh- out the debates on this subject, all of whichI have read, and many of which 1 have heard, anywhere, no matter how thoroughly you may criticise one side or the other, one argu- ment that overthrows the central proposition that- the physical obstacles that lie in our way are under- neath the feet of science, and they are vanquished by the mechanical skill and ingenuity that confrost them. As for as that is concerned I take it that the question has been decided, and the question now before the people of this great community is how fast. how far, by what means and by what appli- ances they shall push that work to completion, and that is what the people expect of the national leg- islature. It may be said that the cost of the prosecution of this great enterprise is immense; but remember that one of the greatest men of one of the great- est of countries that the world has known, Rich- elieu, said that in the prosecution of great enter- prises no expense should be spared.” The insignifi- cant country of Holland. insignificant in its resources, at least, when compared with our own great and magnificent domain, has expended on its dykes and system of river improvements no less than $1,500,000,000. Again, at the close of the Franco-Prussian war, when France was bleeding and almost prostrate from the terrible effects of that great struggie, her legislature voted millions a year, for the improvement of her waterways and system of navigation. The railroads of this country have received from the hands of the Government kingdoms and prov- inces in public lands; and, I think, gentlemen, that the people of the Mississippi Valley are but getting back a tithe of what they pay out in taxes if the maximum of their demands, present and prospec- tive, are granted to them. [Applause.] I understand that the obstacles which lie before those most interested in this cause are not so much physical as moral in their char- acter, In the cailissued by your committee I find suggestions of these difficulties,and I believe the question before you is how to meet and overcome them. I cannot understand why, after the abund- ant liberality of the people of this valley toward en- terprises other than those directed to the improve- ments of its waterwaysthere should be the oppo- sition that has been displayed in this matter. To me it appears to be indifferent whether the internal commerce of this Valley amounts to one- halt or to the total of that of the whole country; whg¢her the amount of money expended by the National Government on improving the waterways of the Valley is equal to one-half, to one-fourth, or to any portion of that to which they are entitled; whether this is the granary of the world or whether it is a desert; that opposition which springs from a well-defined interest sets its face against these im- provements as a rock against a storm. I say that it is thig interest you have too meet and to do battle with and to overcome. [Applause.] I do not believe that the people of this great Val- ley use their political power as they should use it. I do not believe that they hold to responsibility the men who should be devoted to their interests. It seems to me that every man, nd matter for what- ever cause, who finds it is necessary to antagonize those interests should see above his head, erect and frowning, the tutelary genius of the Mississippi Valley with ber hand upon the wheel of his polit- ical fortune, until she has succeeded in terrify ing him into submission. [Applause.] Gentlemen, the problem which confronts us is one which, in my judgment, can be solved by unity of action, and that regards only the attention and consideration and support of the 30,000,000 of peo- ple of this Valiey to be brought to a successful solu- tion. It seems to me that the army of Representa. tives and Senators whom you send to the capital have this within their power. I have seen or read of instances where the political entities of Europe have been able from time to time to preserve the peace of the continent and to exercise the balance of power. I have seen in- stances where a few men, actuated by the spirit of Hampden and Sydney, extended declara- tions of rights and magna chartas from the tyrants who would have oppressed them. I have seen the great questions of revolution determined in En- gland by a majority of two or three votes; and I must say that the idea that this great body of peo- ple, possessing not only the balance of power, but almost the majority of votes in the National Legis- lature, cannot accomplish what they desire, wheth- er it be a question of tactics or of princple, is to abolish the past and to refute all history. [Ap- Pause]. Iremember a curious fable that applies I n its moral to this matter of the improvement ot the waterways of the Missiasippi Valley. An aged Philadelphia Times, The death of Charles T. Howard of New Orleans. the largest stockholder in the Louisiana Lottery Company, occurred on Sunday at his country seat, at Dobbs’ Ferry, N. T. While out riding on Wednes- day he was thrown from hia horse, receiving injuries from which he never rallied. Howard was born in this city, about 1830, and after some schooling in a local institution drifted South, and after various attempts to gain a liveli- hood took up the oceupatton of a lottery and policy dsaler. In 1866 he was commissioned by the Ken- tucky lottery firm of C. H Murray & Co. to apply to the Louisiana Legislature ſor a oharter for a company in that State. There was for two years much opposition manifested against granting the charter, but he finally obtained the charter by means of bribery, the entire stock of $1,000,000 hav- ing been given away in corrupting the Legisiature. The Louisiana Lottery Company was formally organized on August 26, 1668, with Howard as president and his partners as directors. Popular feeling was against Howard as president, and his name was withdrawn. Then the name of M. A. Dauphin was placed on the bills and circulars as head of the.concern. Dauphin was, however, only a elerk in Howard's employ. Howard's income from the latter company enabled him to accumulate an immense fortune, which is estimated to be about $3,000,000. The sharp management of How- ard frequently saved the Louisiana Lottery Com- pany from wreck. When the trouble occurred under Postmaster-General Gresham regarding the carrying of the lottery matter in the United States maiis, he engineered the company through and checked the toreatened interference. Howard suffered many social. rebuffs. He tried togain admittance to the Jockey Club, which owned the once famous Metairie race-course at New Orleans, but his disreputable bnsiness caused a majority of the members to black-bail him. He swore that he would turn the course into a cem- etery, and constructed a rival race-track. He ruined the Metairie Ciub and purchased their Jand. In a short time he turned it into a burial ground. He was also black-balied as a candidate for the La Varieties Club. In New Orleans he aspired to be the leader of society, but was continually foiled, the old Creole families refusing to receive him. Slavery ia Rhode Island From the Chicago Herald The Rhode Island Legislature has done a sur- prisingiy generous thing, when it is considered that it is made up exclusively of the better classes. It has passed, and the Governor has signed, a bill pro- hibiting more than ten hours’ work a day by women and children in the mills. For a great many years the women and children in that State have been compelled to work twelve and fourteen bours a day in order to earn enough money to keep themselves from dying or making other scandalous exhibitions of themselves in the presence of the up- per circles by whom the State is governed, and the nabobs were so well pleased with the arrangement that it was supposed it would continue forever. As no workingman has a vote in Rhode Island, the generosity of the Legislature must be set down to a humane impulse which we read of sometimes in this world. A similar law was passed Massa- cbhusetts several years ago, and it is a fact that more goods are now made in that Statg with the same number of hands. than were formerly pro- duced under the slavery system, but it isnot to be supposed that the ruling guilds in Rhode Island saw this point and acted on@tgelfishly. They are en- titled to great credit fon their generosity, because, under the plutocratic form of government which obtains in that State there is nothing to prevent them from making a little girl seven years of age, or a delicate woman, run a loom seventeen hours every day in the week. Hugo's Howl. From the Chicago Tribune. It is not generaliy known that in 1871 the late Victor Hugo took a violent aversion to Gen. Grant, and printed a poem in “L’ Annee Terrible“ entitle d The Message of Grant,” in which he assailed him with absolutely delirious rage, as will be seen by the following extract: ‘The ideal people is the egotistic peop lo. ‘Nothing definite and absolute exists. The master is everything, he is justice and truth. And all disappears, right, duty, liberty. The future which shines upon us, the reason which guides us, ; Divine wisdom and buman wisdom, Dogma and book, Voltaire as well as Jesus, Since a German Reiter has set his boot thereon! Thou, whose gibbet throws over the world to com- mence, As of the world just te finish, an immense shadow, John Brown, thou who hast given to the people a lesson Of another Golgotha upon another horizon, Specter, untie the knot around thy neck, come, just one, Come and lash this man with thy august cord! Thanks to bim. one day history, mourning, will say: ‘France aided America and drew the sword, Lavished all for her deliverance, And, peoples. America has stabbed France!“ Chief Harrigan Abroad. From the Chicago Herald. St. Louis is especially unfertunate in its police system. The Police Commissioners of that city are appointed by the Governor and form always a group to carry political ends at variance with the real needs of the city. This board has had an odi- worthy of note. He is famous all orer the United States as a Chief of Police, the force under his com- mand attaining a degree of efficiency rarely equaled, and criminals of all classes fearing the locality as a dangerous one for them. But the story is repeated of a city’s interests tota lly disre- garded that the objects of a gang may be assured. Called to Discuss a Sermon.

Games Elsewhere Yesterday. At New York the Brooklyn and Pittsburg Clubs played an interesting game, the latter winning by a single run, Porter and Hayes and Morris and’ Kemmier were the opposing batteries, and neither of the pitchers were hit to amount to anything, but vig base hits being made in the entire e, of which the Brooklyns made five and Pittsburg three. In the fleld, too, Brooklyn had fewer er- rors than Pittsburg, and it was hard luck that lost the home club the game. Valentine's umpiring was very satisfactory, and several close decisions were made. The final score of the game was: Pittsburg 5, Brooklyn 4, The Cincinnati sluggers received a terrible slug- ng yesterday at the hands of the Baltimores. hite pitched for the former fourteen base — 1 the — 7 — twelve sm gar ner v roughout the game, every in- ning but the sixth and eighth. 2 ro ved a paralyger to the Cincinnatis, and in nine nga they secured but six safe hits, which netted them one run in the sixth.

But Lucas has formed a first-class nine, which can make it warm for any team in the country. Itis superb in the infield and in batteries and strong in batting. There is a little too much Duniap, Shaffer and Glasscock and Briody in the coacning, for there is no need to attempt the rattling process in such a nine. It is safe to prophesy that at tue end of the season Mr. Lucas and his men will be pretty near the top.“ During a recent game between the Omahas and Kansas Citys, Umpire Brennan rendered a decision which made Bobbie Black, right fielder of the Omahas. After the game Bobbie went for Brennan and accused him having rendered an unjust decision. This gre | Brennan denied in a very emphatic manner, and Black struck him. They fought and rolied about the street like two school boys, and at the end of that time a police- man, discovering that neither had drawn blood. separated them and walked them to the police sta- tion, where Chief Speers complimented them on their science and hard hitting qualities.

Wasnmeron, June 6. — Some of the State Depart- mont officials think that it would be a good idea for Congress to authorize the wearing of s uniform upon state occasions by all of our diplematic people who are sept abroad. They say that the represen- tatives of all of the civilized nations, or at least the leading ones, are provided with court uniforms. The American representatives being compelled to appear upon these full dress occasions m ordinary evening dress are in constant danger of being taken for waiters. There is hardly a minister who has represented this nation abroad who does not sym- pathize with this project, to have a uniform for the diplomatic corps, which shall be as elaborate end shewy as those provided for the army and the navy. There ig not a single one of our representa- tives abroad who has ever seen any kind of military service who does not wear a military uniform to avoid the too striking contrast between plain even- ing dress and the court costumes of the foreigners. Itis doubtful whether any minister ever carried this idea so far as did Minister Comley, Rutherford B. Hayes’ representative in the Bandwich Islands. Comley wag a brigadier-general in the Union army. When he arrived in Honolulu he wore a resplendent uniform of a major-general in the United States ser- vice. 4 gentleman who was a ‘resi dent in Honolulu during Gen, Com- ley'’s stay there says that Comley wore this uni- i Ashartann reciente oe tiooatusa tet bs slop io it, Comley must have been S prem hero in the minds of the simple islanders. He told them that he h served inthe United States Senate for two terms and that he was much more instrumental in putting down the rebellion than Gen, Grant, The majority of the people in the Sandwich Islands to-day regard Comley as one of the great mili heroes of the tary who temporarily gave up his high position in the army to gain edith and reat in the Sandwich * 8 6 The officials in the State Department have, for a number of years, received a great many favors through the New York Custom House. The major- ity of ita subordinates buy their clothing and arcti- cles of luxury abroad. They have the opportunity of the cheap rates of the foreign market without being obliged to pay any duties. These articles used to be brought openly to ths department aad there ‘delivered. Since the change of the Administration this * ws has been broken up so far as any out- ward evidences of it are concerned. It is said, however, that the oniugeling stil} goes on, but the articles are delivered at the houses of the officiala. It is through such methods as these that the slender salaries of the State Department clerks are made to o much farther than they would if they id not have such favors shown them. Smuggli is ene of the most fas- cinating of -eccupations among a certain grade of the Government officials. The cigars and brandies which are smuggied.into this towa during the year for the officiais in the State Department, Treasury and Navy Departments, would make a very smart tetal towards the end of the year. ‘There is not a nayal vessel which comes into eur ports that poes not bring liquors and cigars for personal friends of those on board. 2 * 6 The President is having more trouble in selecting meu to fllt Diatrics positions than with any other hus to mace.

Tue social influeaces of Washington are 80 great that a man who has become identified with the society here is apt to be influenced by it more than he shouldbe. The courts here are in the main presided over by men who go out in society a great deal, stantiy wined and dined fore 1 subject to indireet and improper influences. It is impossible to convict or carry a case against a man who has any kind of social pull. This wide statement ig suostantiated by the fact that there has noi been a singie conviction here in this District for years of any man of any special importance, The present District Attorney, Mr. Worthington, has not been abie to seccre a single conviction in a case of any importance since he was put into the office, Tne principals in the recent Naval frauds cases were prompily acquitted, al- though the fraud were ciear and yuquestioued.

CRAWFORD, SAVAGE SLAUGHTER, Indian Atrocities Causing Great Alarm in New Mexico. Sunn Orry, N. M., June 5.— The week has been one of unexampied suspense and terror here, Never have the Indians on their bloody raids come so near the city, The first news of the proximity of the Indians was received on Wednesday of last week, when a boy, riding a horse, white with foam, dashed into town from Welty's Rauche, on Bear Creek. He brought word that hostile Indians were in the hills, that an attack on the rauche, in which were gath many women and children, was ex- pected. and help was needed. A volunteer com- pany of thirty-five men was organized and went to U — Tibet wem for break the prices. —— —— q ͥ gʒ a —Uũ m there. They had escaped degth by ‘hiding. ‘Their parents, living in the vicinity, had all been killed. Six miles further on, at the bouse of Felix Mar- quez, five dead bodies were found. Mrs. Marquez and her 7-year-old daughter bad both suffered at the hands of the Indians before being killed. The ladies were slashed with knive and presented a sickening spectacle. One of the heroic deeds that occur on such Occasions was performed by little Willie Carpenter. The parents were some distance from the house when the Indians Willie and his sister were playing in the yard. The boy caught up bis little sister and slipped into the weeds, He crawled a long distance and finally reached this city, having carried his sister six miles on his shoulder, The parents were wild with joy to find their children whom they supposed the Indians had carried off. The boy who brought the news to town had a narrow escape. At one time he found himself within a few hundred yards of the Indians. He dismounted and hidin a pond of water among the weeds for pearly an hour, until they had passed, Then he again mounted and rode in, A miner named Clark was working on Wednes- day in a mine not for from Juniper Springs, He had just set off a blast ana rushed up the hill to avoid the falling rock. On reaching the top he saw the Indians between him and his camp. He started for Little Walnut Creek and warned all the ranch- men, who moved their families to Stewart's ranch, If it had not been for this man, every man, woman aud child ip the vicinity would have been murdered.

A Story That Would Make a French Novelist Turn Pale, From the New York Times. Students of Ollendorff’s grammars have often ound fault with the frequent mention made of the baker, the baker s wife and the butcher the exercises, Fortanately for the reputation of the grave of true inean- baker mary ob f Ou — 2 — 0 of Ollenc 3 urnish instruction in languages, the woven into the exercises a.roman- story.

A little and the baker's wife appears on the scene. “neither warm nor sleepy.” Obviously a cold, , wide-awake person, a easily see that she would 31 — one F a 2 F * Ez ES : : n it ; but ut i! rn 2 4 i Sers r 15 1 she is —7 dressed. ing tuation in Ula an as the sequel shows, dissatisfled. says: The We are told He is evidently a prosperous man, for e has the large, handsome horse and the golden car- riage.” Such is the brief but masterly descrip- tion of this bold, bad man. How the butcher made the uaintence of the baker's wife we are not told, but the disas- trous consequences of their acquaintance are forcibly pictured. We soon hear that the baker's wife has a silk dress and a gold watch.“ and we instinctively know that they were given to her by the wicked butcher. A little further, and we are told that ‘‘the baker’s wife has coffee, sugar and milk,” and we need not ask how she came by these articles. The baker evidently has his suspicions, for we find that “he is not sleepy, but that he is cold.” He has awakened at last to the danger which threatens his home, and he may well feel chilly and mya a The butcher, not content with destroying the baker's happiness, proceeds to rob him. We learn that the butcher has the silver candle- sticks of the’ baker's wife.” Unquestionably the baker was the real owner of these candle- sticks, but his wretched wife gave them to her erin guilt. Then we are told that the tcher has the silk handkerchief of the baker,” and we perceive that the butcher, with the help of the baker’s wife, is systematically obtaming possession of the baker's property. No wonder that a few pages further on we learn that the baker is hungry and cold; that the baker has no money,” and that the baker is ill.” Poor, deceived, robbed, and heartbroken man! This is the last that we hear of the baker, and it is not long before the butcher vanishes from Ollendorff. The last we hear of him is that ‘the has the fine black coat of the baker.” Probably the baker has died of grief, and the heartless butcher has seized even the bakar’s clothes. But by this time the butcher ‘yas probably grown tired of the baker's wi la ready to desert her. Whether he runs away or whether he accidentally the large, handsome horse, we shall never He disappears as soon as he gets the coat is never heard of more. for the wicked woman, we are casually told that tho blacksmith is well, but the baker’s wife has the fever.” Doubtless this fever proved fatal, for with these significant words the romance of the * e” comes to an abrupt end. Let us hear no more of the puerility of Ollen- dorff; but rather let us honor in him the novel- ist as well as the grammarian. His First Question. From the Wichita Eagle. A couple of our most substantial farmers, both natious of Erin, came to town a few days to buy a horse apiece. “Shey naturally went around among all the stablemen and traders in horses in the city.
