The sensation which was caused by the pub- lication in the Post-DIsPATCH last evening of the inelegibility of members of the House of Delegates to sit in that body has seldom been equaled. As it followed so closely upon exposures of drunkenness and _ reckless legislation it might have been expected to have hardly moved the public, but ite effect was widespread, and the indignation expressed was appropriate to the character of the reve- lations. Some of the accused delegates held a meeting in which they vainly en- deavored to frame in English words the tor- rent of wrath they feilt within them. All sorts of vindications were discussed, but no action was taken looking to a publication of their defense to the charges made. In interviews published in the papers and had with the accused delegates by reporters of the Post-DisraTcH, the charges are discredited. The members were profuse in denunciation, though spare of facts. Ed P. Fox was one of the most violent, and indeed wholly without facts. Proof That Members of the Fock... . q 1883. .

John R. Rolfes is not credited with the own- ership of any property, real or personal, in 1883 or 1884, though he holds a receipt for taxes which he paid on property owned by his mother in 1684, indorsed by the clerk to whom he made the payment as paid by ‘‘John R. Rolfes.’’ Thos. G. Kaye owned nothing taxable in 1883, though in 1684 he had personality valued at $280, on which be paid taxes March 23, 18%. Julius Lehman was in the same condition tn 1883, but paid taxes February 28, 1885, for 1884, on 8 valuation of $1,550. P. H. O' Neu returned in 1833 personalty val- ued at , for which a tax bill was made out and is stil) retained, being unpaid, in the Col- lector’s offiee in the northern wing of the Gourt-house. The bill is made @ut for F. H. O'Neil of 38319 Easton av „ which is the Delegate’s address, and & technically described as Bill 1,206, city 18, and is for $%.12. In 1884 the valuation Was increased to $590 and the bill was paid that year on March 27, 1885. H. A. Pishon, as has been previously stated, was assessed not at all for either 1 «or 18% personally.

The Coliector’s books do not show that he was ever charged with any amount of tax, on real or personal property. s office there is no record | of a tax bill in those years bearing the name of E. P. Fox. Peter Morrissey says that, in com- pany with Jeremiah J. Coakiy, Jr., he pur- chased a lot on Ford avenue from F. J. Taaffe prior to his election, and paid two years taxes which were then delin- quent. This payment, he clatms, brings both himself and Coakly within the provisions of section 5, article 3 of the charter. He claims that in taking up the tax bills for 1983 «6and 1364, which were, on the day of payment, April 6, 1855, delinquent, they became tax-payers for two years next before the cay of their election, >) April 7, 1885. The books of the Assessor's of- fice do not show that either Peter Morrissey or Jeremiah J. Ooakley, Jr., were possessed of any property, real or personal, in the years mentioned, nor is there any record in the Collector's of indebtedness charged against them on ac- count of State taxes for that time, either dis- charged or delinquent. Book 755, page 43, in the office of the Recorder of Deeds, shows a transfer of lot 88, block 3, Page avenue addition (fronting 5⁰ feet on Ford avenue) from Kate Taaffe and Patrick J. Taaffe to Peter R. Morrissey and p.m. The transfer contains the statement that this sale was consummated on Feb- ruary 7, 183. In the Collectors’ office tax bill 1,499, book No. 31, and tax bill 1,636. book No. 32, which are for the years 1883-84, were delinquent on April 6, 1885, and on that day they were marked paid. Two Gays prior to the elevtion neither Peter R. Morrissey nor Jeremiah J. Coakiy, Jr., had paid any taxes for 1883 or 1884, nor were any assessed against them. On Avril s, one day before the election, they took up the de- linguent tax bills of Kate Taaffe, and now claim that in consequence of such pay- ment they were taxpayers for two years next before the day of the election. The exact facts of this case were this morning stated to two prominent lawyers with the ques- tion: ‘“Were Morrissey and Coakly taxpayers within the meaning of the law?’’ Both united in the reply, neither knowing of the other’s construction, that within the meaning of the ifw they were not tax payers. The property was purchased subject to incumbrances. Tax is a frst lien upon all prop- erty, and unless the property is free from delinquency the purchaser’s title is so far defective. the purchase it became necessary to remove the tax lien, and the payment of the delin- quent bills was not the payment ofa charge of the bills and she could not transfer a title — ——— — — — — office | — them tre ante in the same account in 1884.

Its Attention Will Be Called to the House of Delegates. Circuit Attorney Ashiey C. Clover has a very clear perception of his duty in the premises. When asked this afternoon what action he proposed taking he unhesitatingly replied: 1 will call the attention of the next Grand-jury to the matter as being one of public notori- ety.’’ The Grand-jary will be selected on Monday or Tuesday of next week. A recess will, how- ever, be taken before final adjournment.

The Legal Aspect Explained by a Promi- nent Lawyer. A prominent lawyer, in speaking of some of the points involved in the explanations offered by the various delegates, said: ‘‘A man whose wife owns property can hardly, because of that, be said to be atax-payer. It there be children living he has an interest in the property as long as the marriage holds by what is called the right of courtesy and the earnings of the propert oto him. The taxes are payabie out of the income and in that way he may be considered to pay the taxes, but that does not fail within the meaning ofthislaw. . The man, too, who just preceding his nom nation buys property that is delinquent, has not been a tax-payer for two years past be- cause ofthat. Aman cannot become a tax- peges forany period past by 2 acquiring he liability of one who has been delin- quent for that time. That is clearly an evasion of the law. Neither can aman be considered atax-payer when the property isin the, name of another. The ree- ord must show that he owns the estate and did own it and pay taxes upon it for two years preceding his election. The fact that it was in — nen of his brother would hardly satisfy the law. THE CONSERVATOR® LEAGUE. A Great Labor Organization—The Lake Shore Switchmen’s Strike, Cu1oaGo, July 2.—Council No. 1 ofthe Con- servatora’ League of America was organized in this city last evening. The League is the outgrowth ofthe present strained condition between labor and capital, and the members of the League think the time has come when some action should be taken to prevent the paralysis of business by labor strikes. It ap- pears that the organization ig to be composed of ‘‘men who believein the supremacy of the law, and are willing to join in putting in motion a great moral force to uphold the law and conserve alike the rights ofthe employer and the employed, to protect business from disorders and from all unlawful interference, and to promote 11 better understanding ofthe true relation of the employer and the employe, maintaining the rights of each, and adjusting their differences.’’ It is proposed to form branch councils all over the country, and to create asupreme body that will govern the subordinate organiza- tions. Atthe meeting yesterday only about adozen members were present. A draft of constitution having been made, the same was read, and with slight amendments adopted. The fees and dues demanded are simply for the expenses of the League. The League isa secret order, but from what has been learned it is believed that it is closely allied to the Law and Order League mentioned in tue St. Louis dispatches of — 1 Regarding the latter organization several Kaights of Labor inter viewed, said that inasmuch as the tact of the organization had become pubiic, there was no use now in denying it, but that of any of the inside workings they Gould not tell. The superintendent of a prominent detec- tive agency said: It is true that there has been and is agitation for such an order. After the failure of Powderly to make his point with Gould in the strikes on the Could uthwest system, there were a great many members of e Knights of Labor who were dissatisfied, and they withdrew from the Knights.

Gladstone Elected Without Opposition in the Leithsbarg District, Scotland — The Premier Strikes Back at the Land-Bill Opponents— Results of Te-Day’s Elec- tions The Campbell Divdrce Case Foreign News. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Lowpon, July 2.—The single contest fought so far, at Colchester, is pointed to this morn- ing with rapture by the Times, as 2 sign that in an average English con- stituency Gladstone’s revolutionary doctrines ‘ have made no headway.’’ In reality the vote has not this significance. It is true the Con - servative beat the“iberal by 129 votes more than last year, but the Unionist total is less that the total Conservative poll of last year. Manifestly, therefore, as the Standard is forced to admit, there has been no transfer of sup- port. So far as this solitary election throws light on the struggle, it indicates that the Liberal Unionists mean to abstain trom voting. Unopposed returns are only significant to superstitious people as an omen of the final result. JOHN BRIGHT’S SPEECH at Birmingham last night caused the greatest anger among the Gladstonians, especially the young Liberals of the present gen- eration. In the smoking-room of the chief Liberal club last night, I heard him defined, amid general applause, as ‘‘a pot- boiling beacon, sneaking about the lobbies of the Commons, writing irrelevant letters. On this same occasion an informal vote was taken of perhaps thirty members present concerning the result of elections. The first question, ‘Will Glad- stone improve his parliamentary position?’’ was answered in the affirmative with two dis- sentients; the second question, ‘‘Wil!l Glad- stone improve his Parliamentary position suf- ficiently to enable him to retain office,’’ was answered in the negative by a majority of one. This vote, taken on the spur of the moment, will be found a fairly accurate forecast of the final result. From all I hear am forced to be- lieve that a severe defeat is hanging over Gladstone 's head, although it is twenty-four hours too soon to prophesy. The Electoral Struggle. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Loypon, July 2.—On the eve of the great electoral struggle the Conservatives and the Unionists are distinctly the most confident. The returns of the elections, decided yester- day by the seats being uncontested, partly ac- count for this. These unopposed elections resulted in the return of fifteen Conservatives, eight Unionists, nine Gladstonians and three Parnellites. Add to these the result of the first contest at Coichester yesterday, where the Tory candidate, Mr. Henry Trotter, was again returned, and the total at midnight stands: Against home rule, 23;forit, 12. Of course,no prophecies as to the final result can be made at this early stage. Yet last night the Tory-Unionist coalition was confidently de- claring that the whole votes of the two parties will bear the same relation. In many constit- uencies the Tory-Unionist coalition has been faithfully kept. In others it has been broken down completely. A forecast of the whole situation is rendered extremely difficult by ‘the triangular nature of the contest in many places, but the depression among the supporters of the Government and the elation among its opponents would hardly exist without some cause. The general impression in best in- formed quarters here, therefore, is that the Tories and Unionists will havea slight major- ity over the Gladstonians. Itis too early yet, however, to speak at all positively. Glad- stone himself is said to de despondent. John Bright’s speech last night, in which he said that Gladstone had apparently lost his head, has caused great irritation among the Liberals. Loud denunciation of him is heard on all hands. There is no confirmation of the report that Michael Davitt volun- teered to contest Lord Hartington’s seat at Rossendale. The Liberals there are much disappointed that they cannot get somebody to oppose him, believing that the general views of the constituency are strongly against him, but in view of his high-minded conduct of the campaign no Liberal of position is willing to attempt to unseat him, and nobody else has any chance of doing 80. It is now de- cided that Gladstone will not be able to speak in London. This loses the Liberals at least two seats. His voice has given way again at last under the strain. England. GLADSTONE’S LETTER. LOEDOKR, July 2.—Mr Gladstone, in another letter, writes: ‘‘A special cause of anxiety for aspeedy settlement of the Irish question is my knowledge that if we embark in Lord Salisbury ’s miserable business of coercion all hope of effectual pfogress and practical work in England and Scotiand must be laid aside, for rural labor is even more urgent, because some of their friends, such as Mr. Collings, who were formerly impatient of any delay in legislation in behalf of labor, are now among the keenest opponents of giving England her rights, and have thus become obstructors of public improvements. GOSCHEN AT GLASGOW. Mr. Goschen, speaking at Glasgow yester- day, said that the handing of Ireland over to the Nationalists would be an act of folly, cow- ardice and shame, and that the Unionists were certain to carry the elections. THE PARNELLITES’ PROSPECT. Mr. Harrington, in an interview yesterday, ald the Parnellites were certain to retain eighty-five seats. They are also sure of West Belfast and have afair prospect in Derry. In Tyrone they are pretty sure to oust Hamilton, while for Mr. William O’Brien’s seat there will be a close fight, though his opponent, Mr. Russel, is not strong enough to invoke the en- thusiasm of either the Orangemen or Union- iste. BRIGHT’S BIRMINGHAM SPEECH. „The Dally News, commenting on Mr. Bright's speech at Birmingham yesterday, shys: Mr. Bright has been in the habit for many years of delivering before Birmingham audiences historical retrospects with the laudable pur- pose of showing how much mischief the Tories had done. The Tories always expressed con- tempt for this unfair treatment. Mr. Bright has now suddenly adopted the enemies’ theory and announces thata retrospect is useless by a Podsnapian method of waiving awkward facts aside unworthy of him.“ The Standard are: Mr. Bright’s speech will go far and wide to affect the polis more than any speech of any other states- man. The Unionists could wish for no better manifesto on the eve of election. Mr. Bright’s words will be all the more impressive because they were wrung from him by a keen sense of public duty which triumphed over all impulses of private regard for Mr. Gladstone. THER RESULT IN COLCHESTER. The Standard says: Tue result in Col- dissatisfaction rather by abstaining than by their votes on the Conservative candidate. At the same time it bodes iil for the Gladstonians that in what, according their own prediction, was a test contest, the adverse majority has nearly dou since Mr. Gladstone espoused home rule. VOTING FOE MINISTERIALIST CANDIDATES. Orders signed by President O Connor and Secretary Brady, have been sent to the branches of the National League in Great Britain, urging Irishmen to vote for Minis- terialist candidates. The issue, they say, eis of momentous importance to Ireland, and we fervently hope that every Irish vote will be polied.’’ Lord Randolph Churchill has been ordered to take a fortnight’s absolute rest. CHURCHILL HOT. Lord Randolph Churchill writes that he does not believe that Mr. Parnell will influence loyal Portsmouth to dismember the empire, which that great historic dockyard town has done 80 much to construct and preserve. ‘‘Mr. Far- nell,“ he continued, leads a party which is composed mainly of rebels, and which is sup- ported by American gold, collected by dyna- miters, whose greatest ambition is to blow Portsmouth into the air.’’ * Sir Henry James has been returned to Parlia- ment from Bury without opposition. HARTINGTON AT BRISTOL. Lord Hartington, speaking at Bristol, said: „We sympathize with Mr. Gladstone in his dreams, but we cannot dream with him. The iliusive idea of governing Ireland by love is not spared by Mr. Morley, who contemplates coercion by the Irish.’’ Lord Hartington fur- ther said that Liberals must be practical and recognize that they cannot resist the Govern- ment policy, except with the assistance of the Conservatives. GLADSTONE STRIKES BACK. Mr. Gladstone,in a public letter, says: ‘‘The Tories call us dismemberers because we share the Earl of Carnarvon’s views. The Marquis of Salisbury kept the Earl of Carnarvon and other dismemberers in his Cabinet until it suited him to resort to coercion. * * * The best financial judgment has declared that the Government's Irish land scheme would not cost the country a farthing. Iam, however, enabled to state that Mr. Chamberlain's land scheme must have cost very many millions of pounds of hard money.’’ GLADSTONE RE-ELECTED. Mr. Gladstone has been re-elected for Mid- lothian. Up to 1 o’clock this afternoon 22 Tories, 9 Unionists, 12 Liberals and 3 Parnell- ites had been elected. PARNELL AND HEALY ELECTED. Mr. Parnell and Mr. Maurice Healy (Parnell- ite) have been re-elected to represent Cork City in the House of Commons. They were not opposed. A GREAT LIBERAL VICTORY. A most desperate electoral struggle between the Gladstonites and the Unionists ended to- day by the utter rout of the latter in the Par- liamentary district known asthe Leithburgs. Mr. W. Jacks was returned to the department as a regular Liberal by a majority of 3,587ina total poll of 8,840 votes. He opposed the home-rule bill, but was nevertheless con- sidered invincible in his district, and was nominated in the present canvass as a Union- ist to continue his opposition to the Premier’s Irish policy. Mr. Jacks’ hostility to Mr. Gladstone angered thousands of the Scotchmen of Leith, but they looked upon their opposition to him as hope- less and were unable to obtain a candidate to oppose him, all those mentioned for the seat having declined toran. The Tories, in order to emphasize the Unionist opposition to the Premier, withheld opposition and left the field clear to Mr. Jacks, so that he might go back to the House of Commons with a largely increased majority. At the last hour allowed by the law, the Lib- eral managers nominated Mr. Gladstone him- self as their candidate, the Premier consent- ing. Thus equipped, the Gladstonites went to work. This was so effective that Mr. Jacks became scared, and to-day withdrew from the fleld, leaving the Leith membership to Mr. Gladstone, who was elected without opposi- tion. This, with his Midlothian District, gives the Premier two seats in Scotland. He will perbaps choose to sit for the latter and select a reliable man to re-contest Leith, with as- surance of success. INDORSES BRIGHT’S ALTERNATIVE, The Times says it ‘‘rejoices to find the tone of John Bright’s speech in opposi- tion to Mr. Gladstone’s [Irish scheme as firm and uncompromising as the most ardent Unionist could desire.’’ Continuing. the Times says that Mr. Bright’s very simple alternative proposal would an- swer, or that the Parnellites would assent to it, we do not argue, bat it is at least intel- ligibie and not revolutionary.’’ PARNELL MENACED. Mr. Parnell! receives letters every day men- acing him with injury or assassination for his efforts to ‘‘dismember the Empire.’’ He has not, however, solicited the pro- tection of the police or called public attention to his perilous position. He is escorted everywhere be goes in his gam- paign work by a body guard of personal friends, all stalwart young Irishmen, who say they feel perfectly able to take care of him and themselves. TORIES LEAD. At4o’clock this afternoon 51 Conservatives 10 Unionists, 15 Gladstonites and 7 Parnellites had been elected. IMPERIAL FEDERATION LEAGUE. Lonpon, July 2.—The Imperial Federation League held an important conference yester- day. The attendance was large and much enthusiasm was displayed. Many Oanadians and Australians addressed the meeting. Sir Alexander Galt urged the formation of a cus- toms’ union among the colonies. He said he did not see why, if Canada entered a confed- eration for mutual defense, America shoulé not go likewise, making the English-speakinz nations one free and prosperous community. [Cheers. } THE CAMPBELL DIVORCE CASE. In the divorce case of Lady Campbell against her husbana, Lord Colin Oampbell, fifth son of the Duke of Argyl, the defendant to-day applied to the divorce court for permission to have stricken from the plaintiff’s petition the paragraph charging him with ‘‘adultery with persons unkn wn. The court reserved de- cision on the py for a fortnight, and in the meantime will read the whole correspondence and all the affidavits submitted by Lord Colin Campbell in his cross-suit to substantiate his charges that Lady Campbell had been gullty of adultery with the Duke of Mari- — Chief Fire Commissioner Shaw and others.

FIGHTING FOR A FORTUNE, Fabulous Wealth Depending on a Woman’s Law Suit. In the third story front of 1828 Franklin avenue, above a little picture store, resides Mrs. L. C. Hitchcock, who, if she wins her possessions, will count her wealth in sums that would dazzle a Monte Cristo. To a Post-DISPATCH reporter to-day she appeared as a comely, pleasant woman, with much self-possession and se- riousness of manner. The fortune sheis seeking is the estate of Thomas II. Blythe,who recently diedin San Francisco,and whose only daughter and heiress she claims to be. Her father, according to her claims, came to St. Louis from the East in 1849, and married a Miss Bessie Morgan in that year. The next year the wife died in - ing birth to the daughter, the present claim- ant The nt. The father went to California, and the child was taken into the family of Robert Rey. III., who raised her at Pleasant Hi, in ignorance of ber true r It was not until both parents died that she knew whose child she was. She married a man named Snyder and on his death five years ago was wedded to L. CO. Hitchcock, who is now in the newspaper busi- ness at Waco, Tex. Sbe has two children, aged 12 and 9 years. A short time ago she heard her father had died in San Fran- cisco, leaving an estate which, with the debts all paid off, amounts to the clear sum of $8,000,000. Mrs. Hitchcock came to St. Louis six weeks ago to prosecute her claim, which is only disputed by a girl, Florence, aged 13 years, who, living in California, as- serts her daughtership and demands the for- tune. Mrs. Hitchcock entered suit in San Francisco a week ago through her St. Louis attorney. COAL MINE ON FIRE, The Knickerbocker Colliery at Shenandoah, Pa., in Flames. SHENANDOAH, Pa., July 2.—When the miners employed at the Knickerbocker Oolliery, near here, went to work this morning, à large volume of smoke was seen issuing from the mouth of the slope, which prevented theirentrance. The mine was then entered by another entrance and the engine-house at the foot of the slope was found to be in flames. Work was sus- ended at the colliery and all the ands were put to work to extinguish the flames, which by that time had spread to the coal and threatened the destruction of the colliery. All the force that can be concen- trated on the work is now fighting the flames with hopes of finally suppressing them. The origin of the fire is not known. SMALL-POX ON BOAED SHIP, The Passengers of the Italian Steamer Ini- ziatava Removed to an Island. NEW York, July 2.—One hundred and twenty-five of the passengers of the Italian steamer Iniziatava, which arrived yesterday, were transferred this morning to Hoffman Island, in the lower bay, because the small pox patient who was taken to the hospi- tal yesterday had not been isolated from the rest of the passengers. There were six births in the steerage of the steumer Hammonia (German) which arrived to-day during her voyage from Berlin. The Great Sale of Men’s Summer Hosiery. T. B.

Bringhurst, the sculptor, charged with assault on Sallie Raw- Uns, a colored girl, was called in the Court of Criminal Correction this afternoon, Gov. Johnson, counsel for the girl, who has been prosecuting the case, arose in his place and said that after careful . investiga- tion he —— ge convinced — was nothing n e charge an asked thatthe case be nolle prossed.

Glover and Lowry—The St. Louis Invitation to Be Pressed—The Adjournment Question Bills Approved by the President—The St. Joe Bridge Bili-Congressional Pro- ceedings—Washington News, Wasurmeoron, D. O., July 2.—The House Committee on Invalid Pensions has resolved to attempt to pass over the President's veto the bill granting apension to Andrew J. Wil- son of New York, and Mr. Sawyer to day re- ported the measure back to the House, giving notice that it would be called up to-morrow. It appearsfrom the report of the committee that Wilson was drafted into the army, not- withstanding his allegations that he was suffering from deafness and an eye complaint. In the service he contracted rheumatism and kidney disease, on which he based an application for pension. His application was rejected by the pension bureau on the ground that he was disabled before he was enliisted, which was also the reason for the veto. The committee take the position that under the circumstances the Government is es- * — from setting up the claim of prior dis- ability. Mr. Taulbec, who ig a member of the Invalid Pension Committee, also reported back the bill granting a pension to C. W. Tiller, with the recommendation that it be assed over the President's veto. This is the case of the Louisville policeman, whose application for pension as a dependant parent, was denied by the Pension Bureau on the ground that the —— of the claim- ant was not established. The Lake Shore Strike. OCnrTcaGo, July 2.—The usual quiet prevailed in the Lake Shore yards this morning, and nothing but the presence of the Pinkerton force would tndicate that a strike was in rogress. The company Ist no time in fol- owing up the advantage they gained in the operations at the stock yards yesterday. Be- fore8a.m. an engine and caboose, guarded with Pinkerton men and peace officers, was dispatched to Packing Ton.“ An hour was spent in switching on Forty-seventh street with no more serious opposition than the hooting and yelling of the women and children who gathered from blocks around to watch the unusual sight of train hands work- ing under a guard of armed men. 1 was going on as usual in the yards at South Chicago, Englewood,-Forty-third and Twelfth streets. There was no opposition whatever of any kind, and from the indications it would seem that the strike was at an end. The Adjournment Question. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. O., July 2.—‘‘I think we can look for adjournment on the 20th of this month, said Oongressman Hatch of Mis- souri, to-day, and I make every allowance for the time required by the President to ex- amine the bills sent to him. The President is following the discussion of the appropriation bills very closely. Now, in my agricultural appropriation bill there was a new provision, $100,000, for the Bureau of Animal Industry. I understand the President looked into this feature of the bill very carefully, and he approved the bill on the day it was sent to him. Ido not think the President will delay adjournment very much and we should get away from here July 20. The President, however, evidently does not believe with Mr. Hatch, to judge from what he told the delega- tion of Missouri who called on him yesterday. Glover and Lowry. By Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 2.—Congress- man Glover is not letting Mr. Lowry rest quiet in the Lancaster matter. Mr. Lowry’s com- mittee has made two efforts to meet, but without success, owing to absence each time of a quorum. Mr. Lowry had promised to ask the Speaker to appoint a successor to Mr. Hahn, a deceased member of the committee. The Record this ing called up his resolution. Speaker, however, stated that he appointed Mr. Taylor to succeed Mr. ahn and Mr. Glover therefore withdrew his motion. The Lowry Committee has sent to the Acting —— of the Treasury a com munication asking his reasons for not investi- gating the Lancaster case. Personal Mention. By Telegraph to the PosT-DIsPaTcR. WASHINGTON, D. C.. July 2.—8. W. Cobb and C. C. Rainwater will leave for St. Louis this evening. They are engaged to- day in preparing an answer to the report of the minority of the House Commerce Committee on the St, Louis bridge bill. They will leave this with those who have charge of the bill to distribute among the members of the House. Mr. Rain- water learned from the St. Louis papers, for the first time this morning, of the death of his artner, W. R. Bradford. Mr. Bradford has een associated with Mr. Rainwater in the hat business for twenty years, and in the cattle business for several years past. American Generosity. DETROIT, July 2.—When the second reading of the home-rule bill was defeated in Parlia- ment, it was promised that $1,000 would be sent as campaign expenses for each Irish member voting for it. The following cable dispatch was sent from here to-day to Mr. Parnell: Five thousand pounds more transmitted your trustees. The League in America more than good to its engagements. ‘«7Signed]) CHAS.O’ REILLY, Treas.’’ This makes £17,000, or $85,000, sent by Dr. O'Reilly within a week, or $1,000 for each Irish member who voted with Parnell for the sec- ond reading The St. Louis Invitation, By Telegraph to the Post-DiIsPaTor. WaSHINGTON, D. O., July 2.—The President is not to be allowed to rest quiet with the in- vitation extended to him by the Missouri dele- gation yesterday. Congressman Dockery, who was not with the party yes- terday, is going up to the White House of his own account, to urge upon the President the necessity of visiting the West. S. W. Cobb will call upon Secretary Bayard and ask him to use his influence with the President. Extra Pay for Extra Time. WasuinctTon, D. O., July 2.—The First Comptroller of the Treasury has made a decision that wherever laborers, workmen or mechanics employed in any of the Exectutive Departments are required to work more than eight hours a day they are entitled to extra compensation for the extra work unless there is a contract with the head of the department to the contrary. The decision applies only to the three classes named, and not to clerks and other employes. Approved by the President. WASHINGTON, D. O., July 2.—The President has approved the diplomatic and consular ap - propriation bill, the act authorizing the Deni- son & Washita Valley Railway Company to construct and operate @ railway through the Indian Territory, and five private pension bills. He also vetoed one private pension Commissioner Miller. WASHINGTON, D. O., Jay 2.—Joseph 8.

PITIFUL yet ludicrous are the squirm- ing, shuffling, equivocating denials and evasions of the disqualified Delegates. One of them pays taxés—on his wife’s property; another owns property—in his brother’s name; another one did not know he had to be a tax-payer until eleo- tion time came around and then he quali- fied by finding a lot of ground with back taxes on it; another one has already had his credentials passed on by a committee of the House. These evasions are so many confessions. Our facts are reasonably well secured. The next step will be to enforce the legal consequences of the situation. ——— Tun refusal of the United States Senate to investigate the election of Senator Payne is creating a great deal of dissat- isfaction and disgust among the faithful in Ohio. The matter is variously ex- plained, one of the most ingenious ex- planations being offered by Senator Lo- Gan; but it is probable that several Sen- ators are opposed to such an investiga- tion for cogent private reasons which they do not care to babble to the promiscuous multitude. A robust investigation turned loose in the Senate might become a mis- chievous and unwieldy piece of business. Tun Mayor of New York has very properly forbidden the slugging match which was arranged to take place in that wy ö f 5 1 J perial Parliament has been doing for the * the result of such brutal exhibitions, they are absolutely indefensible,and no ingenu- ity can make them appear otherwise than as degraded shows that appeal to the most brutish instincts ot those who witness them. It is hoped that the worthy ex- ample of the Mayor of New York will be imitated by the Mayors of other cities in which sluggers may hereafter make ar- rangements for their “exhibitions.’’ HOODLUM DELEGATES. The developments in regard to the House of Delegates are just what the business men and tax-payers get for leav- ing the choice of local legislators fors great commercial city to be managed by combinations of jobbing rings with the political agents of railroads grasping at a monopoly of terminal facilities. The men most interested in protecting the city and her commerce from these predatory enemies can now see how ut- terly they failed in their duty to them- selves and to the community when they voted their party tickets without knowing anything about the candidates or about the influences by which they were to be controlled. They have put the af- fairs of St. Louis in the hands of men who manifest all the traits of obscure floaters, insen- sible to the lash of publio opinion, deaf to the most loudly voiced will of the peo- ple, and intent only upon serving the job masters whose dishonorable work they were selected todo. When oneof these ring chattels, transferred from the desk of a slum hashery to the House of Dele- gates, explains that he was so ignorant of the city’s laws and a Delegate’s qualifica- tions and duties that he did not know he had to be a tax-payer, until somebody bought him $75 worth of real estate and paid two years’ delinquent taxes thereon, in order to qualify him to legislate for St | Louis, we see a specimen of the kind of creatures the business men and tax-pay- ers permit to be elected. That this man’s qualifications were investigated and pro- nounced satisfactory by the House isa fact that fixes the character of at leasta ruling majority of that body. And the result was just what was to be expected in the way of public humiliation, shame and damage to the best interests of the city. They have converted her legis- lative halls into dens for hoodlum antics and orgies. They have sold her franchises for ring whisky and corporation boodle,“ and but for the veto power they would have crushed the city’s business to the earth with the chains of monopoly. Let us hope that our tax-payers and business men will draw from the present disgusting situation a valuable lesson which they will not forget before the next municipal election. — . — »w»-»—˖üʒñ6 BRIGHT AND GLADSTONE. JOHN BRIGHT’s Birmingham speech is of course the most telling one yet delivered against GLADSTONE’S policy. It groups in a masterly way all the arguments and suggestions that can array against home rule the average Englishman’s self-suf- ficiency, his conservatism, his tendency to see nightmare horrors stalking behind every proposed change, and his prejudice against the Irish as [Irish and as Oatholics. At the same time it piques his vanity as a protector of the mi- nority against the majority in Ire- land, and flatters him with the story of the wonderfully liberal things the Im- last twenty years to appease that disloy- ally aggressive and cruel Irish majority. Witha gushing appeal to the superior Englishmen to save Ireland from her own incapacity and unfitness for local self - government, Mr. BRIGHT finally responds to GLADSTONE’s demand for an alterna- tive policy by proposing to put Ireland nominally on the same footing as Scotland in the Imperial Parliament by means of a standing rule referring all Irish bills to a permanent committee of Irish members with power to strangle every such bill they do not approve. As this would not include the courtesy of passing every local bill recommended by the Irish committee, as is graciously done in the case of bills recommended by the Scottish Committee, Mr. BRIGHT admits that the work- ing of his plan would depend on the success of the Irish members in dis- arming British prejudice and winning ‘from British members the same confidence and good will accorded to the Protestant Saxons of Scotland. Yet this mockery of concession and relief would, Mr. BRIGHT contends, satisfy the Irish if they were loyal enough to be satisfied even with GLADSTONE’S plan, and it should there- fore be tried by Englishmen ‘‘as one of the unexhausted resources of civiliza- tion before they capitulate to one of the worst conspiracies that ever afflicted a **oountry.’? Such talk, transparent as it is to all out- side observers, will prove very effective in England and among the very class of fol- lowers whom GLADSTONE can least afford to lose in this contest. — -— 32 Juponx Gnrsnan has decided in the case of the switchmen arrested for obstructing the Lake Shore trains that all inter-State roads are entitled to the protection of the United States courts. In the exercise of its power to regulate commerce among the several States, Congress has passed an act authorizing every inter-State railway to ‘‘carry upon and over its road all passen- gers, troops, Government supplies, mails, ‘*freight and property, on their way from done State to another State.“ Judge GresuaM holds that the right to perform this service is one arising under the 7 71 * 0 * must protect its exercise from all inter · ference and molestation. This means that the protection of those courts is not lim- ited to bankrupt lines in the hands of a receiver, but extends to all inter-State lines that apply for it. THe report of the Pan-Eleoctrie Tele- phone Committee contains nothing new, but the majority of the oommittee have made themselves liable to censure for a vain and useless desire to whitewash everybody connected with the notorious Pan-Electric business. The statement that Messrs. GARLAND, Harris and others were guilty of nothing improper in accept- ing an interest in an invention because at the time of the acceptance it was worth- less is as foolish as it is unfortunate. It was the design of the inventor to have his invention made valuable through stock- holders who were officers of the Govern- ment and who could command influence on account of their positions. When the eminent officials accepted an interest in the invention under such ciroumstances they may have done nothing dishonest or dishonorable, but their action” was un- questionably improper. Itshowed a dull- ness of the moral sense that is very re- gretable in eminent public servants. —ñ 6008 — 1 TURKEY still owes Russia a large bal- ance of the stipulated war indemnity, and the Czar is using this obligation to coerce the Porte into certain measures designed for the furtherance of Russian interests. It appears tobe the present aim ot the Czar to bring about a state of discord, if not open hostilities, between Prince ALEX- ANDER of Bulgaria and Turkey, 80 as to afford a pretext for Russian intervention. The Turkish Government doubtless un- derstands thatthe unpaid portion of the war indemnity will be virtually remitted if Turkey adopts certain measures de- manded by Russia. —— — — SENATOR LOGAN is expected to speak at Bismarck Grove, Kan., on Monday, but as the Kansas people expect to make 15,000,000 bushels of wheat this year, it may be surmised that they are not pre- pared to enjoy keenly the pessimistic oratory of the tawny Senator. When LOGAN speaks he requires calamity, dis- aster and dismal prophecy as the source of his inspiration, and for this reason he should not have been selected to address a crowd of Kansas farmers who are fresh from the harvesting of an unprecedented wheat crop and who have not seen a grasshopper for several weeks. —— en — — GEN. NEAL Dow makes a statement from which it is to be inferred thab he will sup- port Mr. Bla if he is renominated, but will support the Prohibitionist candidate if any one else shall receive the Repub- lican nomination. This is hardly a con- sistent position for Gen. Dow to hold, since Mr. Biarne’s Prohibition record is not what his temperance friends could wish. The magnetic statesman is opposed to Rum, along with Romanism and Rebell- ion, but his hostility to whisky has never been definitely declared. nnn — | _ i i——— NO FIRST-CLASS whitewashing committee should dip its brush in a tar bucket. — Wer wonder if New York and Chicago thought they could keep the lead forever in the Alder - man business. THE adjournment of the Senate could be ex- pedited by having some more passages of Lo- GAN’S book read to that majestic body. SE It is announced that Mrs. Mackey has been recognized by the Prince of Wales. This is shaking hands across the bloody ocean. THE advantages of Canada as a summer re- sort are commended tothe attention of sevy- eral members of the House of Delegates. Le A PAPER is published in Guadalajara, Mex- ico, 5by 8inches in size. It willbe hard for such a paper to do justice to the Guadalajara House of Delegates. Tun Ohio Republicans are angry because they have so little influence over the Repub- lican Senate, but Ohio has made a record that | is not favorable to a big influence. : THe Chicago News says that St. Louis | ought to be re-christened ‘‘Jayville,’’ on ac- count ot Gould’s influence here. It does look that way, but wait a while and see. Gren. Hoar thinks that even now Mr. Bam is President by right. Evenifthis is true it doesn’t offer much consolation, since a mere de jure President gets no salary and has no fun vetoing bills, - — A Shabby Royal Show. From the London Truth. The royal procession at Ascot was as poor and tawdry as usual, and there was a very marked absence of enthusiasm. on Tuesday. The occupants of one or two coaches bawled and bellowed most vigorously, but their fustianm enthusiasm only made the lack of the general en- thusiasm more noticeable. Prince Albert Victor, having taken off his hatin expectation of the cheers that never came, looked quite piteously from side to side, and presently put it op again, apparently at the request of one of his sisters. Uniess the Queen will allow the old Ascot State“ to be resumed the royal party had much better arrive privately in fu- ture, for the ‘*procession’’ is a miserable mockery of what such a cortege ought to be, and used to be. A Count’s Feolish Ambition. Paris Letter to London Truth. I cannot sympathize with the ambition which has, since the Comte de Ohambord’s death, taken hold of the Comte de Paris, whose moral and material position, apart from politics, should have fully satisfied any ration- al human being. Admitted to every Oourt of Europe on a royal footing, and a millionaire, he had not to bear the contumely of the proud or rioh. He had none ofthe irksome cares of royalty. There never was a man of elevated social position who had a wider range of se- lection in choosing his friends. A legal title had been given by the Versailles Assembiy to the family estates to which Louis and his sons had no lawfal right. The Eu estate of the Oomte de Paris, as the mortgage whieh he obtained on it (as @ guard againes confiscation) shows, is worth 9,000, 5 * ’ . 5 — 1 . * 2489838 x enen 0 oi GW 4 ‘ 5 * — * ‘ * 7 rv * 5 J . 4 8 7 5 2 © . 1 0. alt 1 4 ‘ . an 3 Nin Re.

Instead of being at liberty to do as he pleases with his time and to be able to pass unnoticed ina crowd, he would be the slave of paperasserie, the property of apolitical syndicate held to- gether by greed for public money and official honors, the target for virulent tongues and pens and an object for dynamite explosions. The Lawyers of the Senate. From the Utica Observer. A. It is recalled that the brilliant Matt Carpen- ter of Wisconsin once admitted that his being on the Judiciary Committee in the Senate was equivalent to doubling his income from his practice. He afterward said: ‘‘I know lam u very successful lawyer and much sought after. But when I left the Senate and was dropped from the Judiciary Committee I was no longer employed by any of the railroad corporations which have large interests at stake at Washington.’’ That tells the whole story, and furnishes an inkling of the motives of the Republican corporation lawyers in the Senate who are laboring so diligently to kill the Beck bill forbidding lawyers in Congress to serve corporations affected by National legislation. Carpenter was a frank man, and he uttered the naked truth. The conduct of Edmunds, Evarts, et al. in working against this righteous measure is the worst display we have recently witnessed of the subordination of public to private interests. What Crazed King Ludwig. Watterson's London Letter to the Courier-Journal. The childhood of King Louis wasa sort of solitary confinement. But, as he developed into manhood, he developed into rare per- sonal beauty—tall, strong and erect, with light hair and mustache, and witheyes of azure, soft and large. Let man did not delight him nor woman either. At two-and-twenty he went to Paris, saw the Empress Eugenie, old enough to be his mother, and fell madiy in love with her. (Our poor Prince! He did all things madly.) The story is told that the Empress accompanied himto the station on his departure, and, as is usual with royalty, gave him a parting kiss. He flung himself furiously into the railway carriage and spoke not a word to any one all the way back to his capital. Thenceforth he shunned the worid and took heart in nothing except Herr Wagner and the Wagnerian myths and music.

New YorK, July 2.—The WoORLD says: That portion of the sundry civil bill appro- priating $25,000 for detecting and bringing to trial and punishment persons guilty of violat- ng the internal revenue laws was yesterday n the House stricken from the bill, in accord ance with the amendment of Mr. Reid of North Carolina, offered last Friday. This fund has been chiefly used in the mountainaus district, where ‘moonshining’ is the principal trade and where it is most needed. The members representing districts where this branch of industry prevails were more than enthusiastic in behalf of the amendment, and of them there was butone (Mr. Tillman of South Carolina) who voted for the proper ded- ication of the statue of ‘Liberty Enlightening the World. THE SUN The Sun says: President Cleveland’s letter to Cardinal Gibbons is a noteworthy docu- ment. It demonstrates the great change which has taken place in public sentiment since the days when every esbyterian was bound to hate the Catholic Church and denounce the Pope as anti-Christ. Mr. Cleveland is evi- dently no longer the man he was in his earlier and less philosophic days, and we congratu- late him most cordially upon the increased sweetness and light belonging to the broader and more tolerant view of Christianity to which he basattained. In this country, thank God, we have no state religion and the- Presi- dent not — has the right, but it may be his duty to manifest his 1 for the whole Christian body, as well to its oldestand most magnificent commanion as to the simple, severe and Caivanistic sect in which he was born and to which he is still attached. THE TIMES. The Times says: Mr. Edmunds is really in earnest in his scheme for what he calls real civil-service reform. He thinks that alli the minor offices now filled by the President and Senate should be filled by the President alone for a term of four years, and that in all such offices there should be no way of getting rid of an unsatisfactory officer but by a suit at law ina United States court. He believes that this would lessen the scramble for office as the vacancies would only occur at intervais during the term of any administration, and that it would secure fair play for the officers. The scheme is, from a business point of view, simply absurd. The political advantages to be had from it are doubtful and so far as they are real, can be more safely had in another way.’’ . THE TRIBUNE. ” The Tribune says: ‘‘Prohibition went into effect yesterday in Rhode Island and Atlanta, Ga., and was also voted by the people of Oo- piah County, Mississippi. The contrast which these victories and substantial gains present may well be studied by the Prohibitionists, so-called, who profess to believe that it is their duty tomake warupon the Republican party. In Rhode Island prohibition has con- quered without a party struggle. In Missias- ippi, as in Georgia, prohibition has prevailed because its advocate took care to present the issue onits merits without antagonizing either of the political parties in which its supporters were found. But in states like New Jersey and New York Prohibition gains nothing, but only loses ground because its professed sup- porters make it their chief business to de- nounce, and, if they can, to defeat the party in which the most of the friends of prohibition are found.’’ ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS, BAS BALL CRANK.—The Browns were ahead June 13.

The Union Py. cific was indifferent, as it got the haul on a 4. vision of the business from Ogden and on) led that which it took from Council Biuiy and the Missouri River points. The Burlingta & Missouri, on the contrary, having no |ing west of Denver, was forced to report al! ig business in these commodities, an arrange. longer.

The Central Trafic Association meeting at Cleveland is still going on, and the passenger end of the conference is liable to last until late next week. This morning H. W. Hibbard, General Freight Agent of the Vandalia, re- turned from the meeting and says everything is proceeding witb earnestness, but perfect harmony prevails. One important measure adopted by the freight agents is the agreement to erect scales at all important points on the lines ot the association and to bill all live stock at actual weight. This will puta stop to the hole through which many dollars of the railroads have leaked, and will make the live- stock shipper calculate his profits very close, not having any chance to work the short- weight snap on the roads. The Kansas lines are at work on their live stock pool again atthe Southern. The Santa Fe, Southern Kansas, Missouri. Pacific, the Frisco, and the Gulf Roads are represented at to-day’s meeting, and the hitch is said to be on the division of percentages. It is pro- sed to leave the vexatious question to be settled on the auditor's figures of comparative earnings for the past two years. A STREET DUEL.

She has no envy for the pretty faces and graceful forms that sweep by her unmindful of her presence. Even the tantalizing bootblack seems to be here for some good. Life is brighter to old Mary Joyce to-day than it has been in twenty years. For nearly a quarter of a century Old ary. as she is only known to many who had no interest in her, trudged through the streets carrying her little store of trifles on one arm while she steadied ber trembling arm by pasty 8 her shrunken, browned hands. With the few cents she made each day she wended her way back to her lonely room at Collins and Oarr streets, where her sad lot was too common to excite atten- tion or even to interest those about her, For twenty years this had been the uneventful life of ‘‘Oid Mary’’ until Patrolman Hogan ac- costed her at the Union Depot a few days ago to ask her it she ever nad a sou. O yes, I had a lad that loved me butis dead, I guess. lhaven’tseen or heard from him ln twenty years.’’ The officer produced aletter addressed to Chief of Police Huebier by Mr. William Joyce of 362 Canal street, New Orieans, La., asking that search be instituted for his mother. The officer had not finished reading the letter when the old woman burst into tears of joy and said gt was trop her long-lost son. er address was sent to him, and to-day ‘‘Oid Mary’’ carries in her bosom a crumpled letter dearer to her than bank-notes.

The Posr-Drisrarcn end of the fllumination fund is booming, and the people with the in- terests of St. Louis at heart are coming for- ward to the assistance of those who have al- ready givena helping hand.

All visitors were gradousty received and es- corted through the different departments by the affable clerks of the house, every one of whom wore hie best Sunday clothes and a delicate boutonnaire in the lapel of his coat. As they entered the door they were presented with beautiful souvenirs in the shape of prettily painted fans. r being shown through the building all went away highly pleased with their treatment, and satisfied that they had seen oneof the most extensive concerns of its kind in the country.

Ward is one of the most wonderful young men lu Wall street. Why, do you know I believe Grant & Ward are doing as much business as any house in the street, and I shouidn’t be surprised if it became the richest one here, if not in New York.’ Not more than three weeks before the failure Jesse Grant came to the bank to BORROW $30,000 . on Grant & Ward’s notes, secured by povern- ment contracts. Itold him: ‘Ithink we have done enough for Grant & Ward.’ On this young Grant seemed greatly put out. He said: ‘I think Loughtto be given a chance to make somethi while all the rest are making money.’ Ihad to decline to make the loan, and could only get rid of him after saying that we did not bave the money. I never knew anything about those private contracts by which men were paid 20 per cent a month or any such sums as Ward has said.he paid to different people. I have never had any reason to believe that some of the men whom he has accused of drawing out large amounts had ony knowledge of his methods. All they did, as I understand it, was to buy paper, such as is done by the brokers on the street every day. f Warner’s transactions I know absolutely nothing. I never saw him until he was pointed apt to meat Ward's trial. The first I ever heard of him was at Ward’s house. 1 was admiring a new pict- ure or : SOME COSTLY TURING that had just been added, when Ward told me it wasa present from Mr. Warner.

I have been called a perjurer, a villain, and it has been suid my word could not be believed. If lam such a person why do they want me? The warden will tell you thatI went to New York against my will to testify. One of the parties who has tried to make me out a perjurer wrote to me asking me to testify in a caso in court. Il answered him asking, if he believed me a per jurer, did he want me to commit the sin over again? The fact is that I was sent to prison for my negligence and not for dishonesty.’’ „Well, Mr. Fish, do you complain of the law under which you were convicted?’’ ‘‘Icomplain? No. Icommend thelaw,even though it strikes me down. It is a good and wise law. FISH'S EMOTION. Here Mr. Fish stood up and folded his arms upon his chest. His eyes were filled with moisture, but he seemed to be trying to play the man against the emotiuns which his story had called up. „want to say one word beforeI go.

ITEMS OF INTEREST GATHERED IN THE VARIOUS RELIGIOUS FIELDS. Judge Cady Finds a Defender—The Split in the American Aid Association—The Y. M. C. A. Not a Fashionable Club—Sunday Subjects—Personal Gossip. The denominational differences that have rent the American Educational Aid Associa- tion make interesting an account of the rela- tion that existed between the association and the Baptist Orphans’ Home. Rev. Isaac W. Higgs, the association’s superintendent, is a Methodist, but came here with an introduc- tion to Rev. Dr. W. W. Boyd of the Second Baptist Church, who gave an impetus to the work by throwing into it his personal Influence and energy. When Mr. Higgs began the receiving of waifs he found that a great many babies were placed in his bands. He could put children of an older growth into the different orphans’ homes of the city, but how to dispose of the babies was a puzzling question. At that time the Baptist ladies, who had been home, took the $12,000 they bad in bank and opened an institution at 2651 Morgan street, but as there was no Protestant foundlings’ home in the city they made it a babies’ home. It was entirely independent of Mr. Higgs’ association. Then Mr. Higgs thought the home might be just the thing to care for the babies placed in his hands and asked if he couldn't have rooms there for himself and wife. Some ofthe ladies thought this would not be wise, but on Dr. Boyd’s suggestion that it would be an assistance to Mr. Higgs, he was given the rooms at a certain fixed rate of board. He also contracted for the care of the babies at the rate of $6 each a month. Dr. Boyd was elected President of the Association, but at u meeting of the board, he said he would resign in the belief that a layman as president would remove any color ot denominationalism. In spite of this, when his successor was elected, Rev. Dr. Rhodes was chosen. At the same meeting Mr. Higgs suggested he had better be given some separate headquarters. This was taken as an evidence that somebody had complained of his running his association asa tail to a Bap- tist kite, and the Baptista felt somewhat indignant, as they had been accommo- dating Mr. Higgs throughout and had even for his sake not put out the sign Baptist Babies’ Home. Mr. Higgs shortly after announced his intention of leaving, and is domiciled at Dr. Snyder's house, 2615 Pine street. Dr. Boyd, who had been elected a vice-presi- dent, resigned on the ground that it was taking too much of his time. He explains his resig- nation by saying: The insinuation that the Baptists were 1 torun Mr. Higgs’ asso- ciation is absurd. had personaily secured the assistance of Dr. Eliot, Mr. Yeatman and others, and 1 certainly would not think of using such men as that for such a purpose. I was glad to get out of it also as I found that Mr. Higgs was not ossessed of any much discretion, his indiscretions sometimes savoring of proselytism. When aman goes into a Catholic iamily and takes away babies to be put into Protestant families I am against him. Pro- priety and respect for the religion of others must be observed. THE r. u. C. A. NOT A CLUB. The statement of Mr. Ed Bredel at the Pres- byterian Union meeting Monday night that the T. M. C. A. has grown into a fash- ionable club, was received with astonish- ment by Secretary Coxhead, who says more religious services are held with a better at- tendance than were held at the old quarters at Eleventh ana Locust streets. For the first time in the history of the association, he says, it is realizing the four objects of its existence: the physical, moral, social and spiritual im- provement of young men. There is nothing objectionabie even in a club if it is properly conducted. The devil has been using good furniture, pleasant rooms and innocent games to drag down young men, and the association were going to employ his own means for awhile. . M. O. A. NOTES. The names ofthe T. M. C. A. double quartette, ust organized, are as follows: First bass, V. Rea Colcord, J. M. Kennedy; second bass, J. B. Dixon, E. Dixon; first tenor, Peter Ber- net and E. G.

A meeting of allthe committeemen of the . M. O. A. is to beheld this evening to dis- cuss measures for increasing the efficiency of the work during the summer months. GARY'S GRIT. Mr. O. J. Gary’s succtsesful and steady work indoors has not in any way unfitted him for outdoor work, and his natural nerve is in no- wise abated. Last Sunday afternoon while bolding an open-air 1 Ninth and Mar- ket streets, a tough ran from a neighboring saloon while Mr. Gary was praying and puta Klass of beer to his lips. At the same time sev- eral other hoodlums got behind and smoked so viciously that all that could be seen of the evangelist was his calm face like that of a mar- tyr ot old. Ths crowd were so struck with Mr. — fortitude that they applauded vigor- Ously. That drove the disturbers away inshame and attracted a large gathering, to whom the evangelist held forth without further inter- ruption and with considerable success. Notes.

The Central Baptist defends Judge Cady by saying that it is illogical and impossibie to close up these low places as long as the decent people patronize the ballet. It says: There may be a tainted moral atmosphere among the high as well as among the lowly.’’ Bishop Tuttle, the newly elected head of the Missouri diocese, has engagements that are expected to keep him absent from St. Louis till September.

The Post-DiIsPpaTcn predicted that the elec- tion of Rev. Dr. John A.

Dr. Wilson’s experience in conventions with his anti-instrumental brethren has taught him to be firm in wielding the gavel. The W. O. T.

R. Win- field has spoken oftener than any one else in the conference. Dr. Godbey’s explana- tion is that it was written by Rev Charles O. Jones, who was in charge of the office during the editor's attendance upon the General Conference. One shrewd Methodist says that although Dr. Winfield is making a great fuss about being called garrulous on the conference floor, he would doubtless think nothing of preaching sixty minutes. An Important Arrest. The arrest of a suspicious character upon his eneral appearance, movements or compan- onship, without waiting until be has robbed a traveler, fired a house, or murdered afellow- man, is an important function of a shrewd de- tective.

A DESPOTIO HOTEL MAN, Judge Hilton Bounces the Drug Men from the Grand Union at Saratoga. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPaTcn. SARATOGA, July 2.—Another act of proscrip- tion by Judge Hilton, acting for the Stewart estate in the management of the Grand Union Hotel here, is noted. This time the proscribed people are representatives of over thirty lead- ing drug houses, who are herein connection with the American Institute of Homeopathy. Arrangements had been consummated by the drug men with the man- ager of the hotel for quarters, and it was agreed to allow them to exhibit their goods in the club-house. The exhibits had all been placed in position there when the Judge dropped into the club-room. Calling his manager he demanded, in an tones, who had permitted the use of the place for the exhibition, and was dulyinformed. He there- upon ordered that everything be removed within two bours and withdrew in high — oen. The goods were landed unceremoniously upon the sidewalk and the drug men compelled to take quarters across the way at Oongress Hall. They expostulated with Manager Otter, claiming that they bad made an agreement, but he was helpless to do anything in the matter. The médical men were indignant at the treatment of the drug representatives and urged them to seek legal redress. The drug men say —— will do s, as they have an agree ment whereby they were guaranteed facilities at a fixed price for the exhibition of their goods. No reason has been given for the un- ceremonious action of Judge Hilton other than that he did not want them at his hotel.

Someofthe shrewder agents have let large houses at lower figures than the brought during the year, arguing that it will be more profitable to let the property at $ or $10 per month under the ordinary rental than to have them unoccupied for a month. Those who are wealthy enough to rent large houses usually leave the city during the summer months and a fall in rents ensues. Rentals of average HOUSES REMAIN ABOUT THE SAME. Buildings Nos. 1218 and 1223 Olive street are being disman led to make way for improve- ment. Recent buyers on East Olive street have come to the conclusion that the present structures occupying many of the valuable lots do not pay interest on the investment. Mr. L. B. Jones, who bas made a specialty of railroad property, said: ‘‘There is noth- ing doing at present in railroad property. There are a great many inquiries for ground along the vailey and — | east of Four- teenth street, but prospective buyers can get no assurance that they can get aswitch con- nection with their property after they have have made the investment. Many would be satisfied to go as high as $2 and $300 per foot for property about Ninth streetif they could get connection with the tracks and save Son a car. The railroads will do the switch- ing free if the 9 holders can only — vail on the Municipal Assembly to give them tracks. There are two or three wholesale grocery firms, as many iron firms and several agricuitural implement dealers who would locate at once if the Council would show any disposition to give them rights to cross ad- jacent streets with tracks. The monthly meeting of the Board of Di- rectors of the Real Estate Exchange, which is held usualiy on the first Monday of each month, will be held on Tuesday next for July. President Wolff leaves for Europe on the 10th inst. The Cabanne sale amounted to nearly $25,000. Over 1,000 feet nao ge will not be disposed of until fall, unless advantageous private prices are received. All parties are satisfied with the result of the recent sale, and itis probable that another will be arranged if the fall opens up lively. THE RIGHT MAN.

Dennis, order to perpetuate testimony. railroad company was sued for damages for the loss of some mules in transit and the case was transferred to the United States Court. The company desired to secure the evidence of John B. Dennis aconvict in the Jefferson City Penitentiary, who is reported to beina dying condition, and in the mean- time the suit in the Federal Court has been dis- missed by the plaintiff. As there is no suit pending at this time the application is some- what unusual, and the attorney relies solely upon the following statutory provision: Sec. 8414. Depositions of witnesses to r- petuate testimony may be taken whether the person desiring the taking of the same is a arty or expects to be a party to a suit pend- ng or about to be commenced or not in any court of this State, and the object is to perpet- uate the contents of any lost deed or instrument of writing, or the remembrance of any fact, matter or thing necessary to the re- covery, security or defense of any estate or property, real or personal, or any interest therein, or any other personal right. Judge Barclay took the matter under advise- ment, and will pass upon it to-morrow morn- ing. A Sensitive Referee. The building contract suit of O. O. Murphy against Elizabeth H. and Sam’! A. Coale, which is pending before Judge Dillon in Court No. 2, meets with obstacle and delay at every turn. Not long since Wilbur F. a was ap- pointed referee in the matter, but he declined on the ground of pressure of business.Chas.A. Davis was appointed to succeed him, and to- day he comes into court with a petition beg- ing to be relieved. Several days were set or the hearing and continuances were granted, and he now alleges that yesterday morning the case was positively set for hearing. Mr. Donahue, however, appeared for Mr. A. R. Tayior, of counsel in the case, and stated that Mr. Taylor had been called to Europe by a cablegram from his wife. Mr. Seneca Taylor, on the other side of the case, objected to any delay, and the referee alleges that upon his showing some hesitation, Mr. Seneca Taylor intimated thatthe referee was influenced by his friendship for and relations with Mr. A. R. Taylor. The referee thereupon declined to go on and he tells the Court that he cannot consistently labor in the case under such cir- cumstances, as Mr. Seneca Taylor would not be satisfied with him. The Court granted the referee his order of discharge and payment of a $25 fee. The con- troversy relates to extras on the Coale resi- dence, Vandeventer avenue. Judge Barclay’s Decisions.

W. Booth & Sons. They stand in the front rank for enterprise, command an exten- sive line of country customers, and, both in receiving actyal consignments and the option trade, they have few peers and no superiors.
