THE STEINGRUBY CASE. —— ie en > Mr. Steingruby said: ‘‘For more than two years I had headache and a dull feeling over my eyebrows, which made me fee cress all the time. I did not feel like being with any one or enjoying myself. My throat was dry and sore. I was hawking and er 1 n d elde in the morning and pain in mychest and a numb feeling in my limbs. I felt KNeak and nervous. I would get so some- times I could not see. My hearing was so bad I Gould not make out what any one was sayin to me half the time. I woul have to atudy so much and thi what it was that was said. I could not wae: and I felt as bad when! — ed up in the morning as when I went to bed in the evening. Iwas short-winded, and I felt prett®? bad, I tell you. 1 had tried patent medidines out of the drug stores, but nothing I could do gave me any relief from that terrible feeling in my head. Well, about three months ago i went to see Dr. McOoy. The Doctor examined me and seemed to un- derstand my case at once. He told mel had catarrh. I at once took treatment. lam now free trom all my disagreeable feelings. My hearing is restored. I can eat and sleep well and feel like a new man, and enjoy life once more.’’ Mr. H. Steingruby lives with his mother at Blueridge, near Cheltenham, Mo. The truth of his statement can be substantiated by call- ing or addressing him.

Emma IN CANADA. THOMSON SEEN BOTH IN TORONTO AND MONTREAL. The Missing Bank Cashier Spoken to by St. Louisians—The Deficit Will Be Made Good When the Accounts Are All Investigated— The Bank Failure. The POST-DISPATCH 1s enabled to give at length positive information as to the where- abouts of the defaulting cashier, Almon B. Thomson, after the Provident Bank crash last week. Mr. John D. Gibson, attorney-at-law, returned this morning from Canada. He is a victim of the collapse to a considerable extent. He was returning from Quebéc to Montreal, in company with Newland Chapman, John Gentiles of Penny & Gentiles, and Wm. Haley, ali of this city. The first news of the cashier’s flight reached him through the newspapers the morning of the 15th. He reached Montreal on Saturday morn- ing, the lith, and repairing to the Balmoral the name of the Provident cashier. M. J. Brown of the firm of Richard Brown & Co., contractors of this city, saw Thomson, however, in Montreal after Mr. Gibson and hls party had left tor Toronto. He knew nothing of the bank collapse or of Thomson’s flight at the time and after exchanging salutations with Thomson, he asked him what he was doing up there and where he was going. Thomson replied, with asinile: I am just rusticating for a While. I got worn down a little.“ He appeared lively and light-hearted as usual and was evidentiy having a pleasant time. He certainly did not impress Mr. Brown as a man resting under a cloud, and he had no suspicion of Thomson's real object in visiting Canada. He manifested no sign of care or anxiety. Last Monday morning Mr. Brown met Thomson again on the streets of Toronto. Mr. Brown had a Canadian gent!- man with him at the time and he introduced Thomson saying: This gentleman is a cash- ler of one of our St. Louis banks. The Canadian replied as he took Thomson’s hand in a jocose manner; We have several of your kind rusticating here.’’ The Canadian never supposed for one moment that he was hitting home hard, but Thomson did not change color for a moment and he laughed at the remark as heartily as Mr. Brown and his friend. The same day a furniture dealer in the South End, who is a victim on a deposit account to the extent of $5,000, met Thomson on the street in Toronto. He was in ignorance of the collapse, and exchanged hearty greetings withthe gay defaulter. ‘The Gibson party reached the conclusion that Thomson saw their names on the hotel register at Montreal, Lane, not wishing to run against them, sup- is course and went back to Toronto. Mr. William Haley, book-keeper for the real estate firm of Charles H. Turner & Co., ro- turned this morning from his Canadian t ip. He says that heand his party stopped at Be same hotel with Thomson in istered as Thomson, nor as coming from St. Louis. He knew this because the party had the register overlooked for a week or two ast for the express purpose of ascertaining what, if any, visitors were stopping at the hotel. Mr. Haley said that he had not seen Thomson, but that Mr. Brown had, once at the hotel and once on the steps of the Post-oflice. This was on last Saturday. Mr. Brown seemed to be the only one in the party who had seen the absconder. A visitto Mr. Brown’s residence, No. 2016 Biddle, resuited in information to the effect thathe had not yetreturned home and was not expected until the latter end of the week. NO ADJUSTMENT CONTEMPLATED. The talked-of compromise of the Provident defalcation as far as the Thomsons’ side of it is concerned is as remote as it ever was. To-morrow will be the good Friday that Judge Jones has led an expectant public to look forward to, but if, in its meas- ureless possibilities, it holds a finan- cial adjustment of the trouble that hundreds of poor depositors are sharing it will be a sweet surprise to the family of the absent money-changer. Mr. Thompson, Sr., says that no proposition of any kind has been made to him since he was made aware of his son’s entanglement. Only once has Mr. Jones spoken to him and then the conversation took a sympathetic instead ofa business turn. The old gentleman says further that he has not the remotest idea of his son’s present whereabouts. He has been to the home of Mrs. Thomson but once since her husband’s disappearance and the publication yesterday of the Sheriff’s notice to sell the household goods on August 17, is all he knows of that. Judge Jones, when seen by the reporter, said that he still hoped to-morrow’s developments would enable him to ive some welcome information. He eclined to state the character of the developments that he expected, but said he would @ive the fullest information to-juorrow if his plans matured. If not, he saw no reason for delaying results longer than the first of next week. Col. Tom Radburn, who has the inmost con- fidence of the majority of the directors, and has advised with the receiver, was seen at the Lindell this morning. The Colonel said: The truth of the matter is that no ursuit of Thomson has been made. No bring him back would accomplish nothing now but his incarceration, and might do much harm. His shortage is about $68,000. Perhaps $50,000 of this is his defaicution; the rest is debt. When the receiver has finished his examination of the books and can state positively the amou it of tbe defaication there is but little doubt that his brotber John and his father will make good. I have talked with them both and that is undoubtedly their desire. I happen to know that 8. H. Laflin has offered to stand by them with some ready money incase they need it for the settie- ment. Judge Lubke ted an order this afternoon in the matter ofthe Provident Bank at the petition of Geo. W. Sanders. A note was given tothe bank by Mr. Sanders for $5,000, secured by sixty shares of the St. Louis Tarpaulin Company. / A draft for $2,500 was disnonored in New York and My. Sanders had a balance of $613.55 on deposit at the Provident. He offered to close out the note transaction on condition that the draft in New York was paid and bis note and security returned to him. credit being given for his bal- anve. The Court granted the order accord- ingly. "te 4 expected that Recciver Thompson's in- ventory of the assets of the Provident Bank will be presented to the court on Saturday morning. That is the present calculation. The work involves a vast amount of detail. THE STANDARD BOOK COMPANY'S ACCOUNTS. A meeting of the directors of the Standard School Book Company, of which Almon B. Thomson was president and treasurer, was held yesterday at their office, 821 Locuststreet, to consider the question of their account with the Provident Savings Bank, which an investi- ation of the books showed to have Seon overdrawn by Thomson to the amount of $7,000.

CHICAGO, July 22.—The statement is made to-day that the Illinois Central Company has decided to build a line from Chicago to Free- port, III., and will begin a survey within two weeks. At the latter point it will connect with a Dubuque line and give a direct line to the roads teased and controlled by it in Northern Iowa. It has also placed a corps of engineers in the field to map out the best route from Freeport to St. Paul and Lake Su- perior country. Officials of the compan claim that both lines will be completed by the end of next summer. A TARIFF OF RATES. The lines belonging to the Northwestern As- sociation have agreed upon a tariff of rates east-bound from St. Paul to Chicago upon all classes of freight except flour. The tollowing rates were agreed upon: First- class, 45 cents per 100 pounds; second-class, 35 cents; third-ciass, 25 cents; fourth- class, 20 cents; fifth-class, 15 cents, class A, 2 cents; ciass B, 17% cents; class C, 15 cents; class D, 1242 cents. These will go into effect at once. The Min- nesota & Northwestern Road was not repre- sented which prevented an agreement on flour and the matter was referred to a com- mittee. Ifitfailstoagree the Commissioner is authorized to fix the rate, SALE CONFIRMED. Judge Gresham has confirmed the sale of the Louisville, Evansville & St. Louis Railway Company, known asthe Air Line, which was made une 9, to a committee of the bondhoiders, who are to pay $760,000 forthe property. The final 17 that the purchasers shall pay 8262. in cash and tbe remainderin bonds. Some time ago the Chicago & Grand Trunk, without authority from the Central Traffic Association, made 3 contract with a number of lodges of Odd Fellows to take delegates to the Boston Annual Encampment at the very low rate of $13 for the round trip. Its action causeda break in all Eust - bound rates, which was atter ward patched up. Yesterday at a meeting of the lines interested the contract was declared off and no delevates will be taken ata less rate than one and one-third fare for the round trip. The Lake Erie & Western has consented to become a member of the Central Traffic Asso- ciation onthe same terms as those granted the Indiana, Bloomington & Western. This brings harmony throughout the territory, and Uthe agreement is carried out, will abolish cut rates to all points in the interior governed by the organization. DISCRIMINATION, Replies Received by the Merchants’ and Manufacturers’ Association. Secretary J. G. Shelton this morning re- ceived replies to the Merchants and Manu- factures’ circulars on the subject of railroad discrimination as fol- lows: Hon, N. D. Thurmond, Democratic candidate for State Representative from Callaway County, writes that he is desirous of clothin the : Rail- road Commissioners with power regulate and control the railroad companiesin their freight charges. ; Wells, Democratic candidate from Buchanan County, writes: ‘‘I have been disposed to give the Railroad Com- missioners atairand impartial trial, and after so doing 1 am _ satisfied that it is neces- sary for the next General Assem- bly to enact laws compehing the Commissioners to comp! with and enforce the statntes.’’ H. C. MeGrew of Lex- ington says that he indoraes the stand taken by the Merchants and Manufact- urérs’ Association upon the subject. Francis Coffee, Republican candidate for Rep- resentative from Lexington, writes ‘‘yes’’ after each of the questions of the committee. SMART RAILROAD MEN. The Offer of the O. & M. Shops to Several Indiana Towns, By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. VINCENNES, Ind. July 22.— Washington, twelve miles east of this city, and Vincennes have long been contending for the location of the Consolidated Machine Shops of Ohio & Missis- sippi Railroad, Vincennes and Knox County having years ago donated this road $260 ,000. Our citizens refuse to take more stock in it or to accept Peabody’s proposition for an additional donation of 575, 000 and sixty acres of ground, having a natural right to the shops. he Commission- ers of Daviess County this week passed an appropriation of „000 toward securing the shops, the citizens of Washington baving raised $25,00%. A Washington man in this city to-day says the tax-payers of the out town- ships, who will derive no benefit from this step, and who lost thousands of dollars of township funds by the thieving of absconding township trustees, will at once bring injunc- tion suits to prevent the appropriation being paid, and will fight the movement to the full extent of the law. WAYWARD NELLIE, The Van Meter Girl Released—What the Father Says. Nellie Van Meter, the girl whom the police took out of a disreputable house on South Sixth street Tuesday night, was released last night, the police having no authority to hold her longer than twenty-four hours, as there was no charge against her. They were merely holding her for her parents in Carlinville, III., she having disap- peared from her home there on the 20th of last April. This morning Chief Huebler received a letter from her father, stating that he had received the Chief's message and was not surprised to learn wherethe girl had been found. He says he thinks it would be useless to bring her back as she would do better, they being able to do nothin with ber. „She has ruined herself, She gays, and I think it best to let ber go.“ She left with James Meyer, ſthe youn ebrew,who has — for her and who claims that she is 8 wife.

The Petitioner’s Attorney Scores Sir Charles Dilke Unmercifully—Forming the New Cabinet—T. P. O’Connor on the Future Prospects of Home Rule—Irish Grati- tude—Foreign News. LONDON, July 22.—Capt. Foster, being sworn as a witness in the Crawford divorce case to- day, admitted that he had been guilty of adultry with Mrs. Crawford. He said Mrs. Rogerson encouraged his relationship with Mrs. Crawford. Once he took Mrs. Crawford to a brothel. Sir Charles -Dilke aud called him a liar, ascoundrel and a coward, because he had secretly attempted to sever the relation- ship between Mrs. Crawford and witness. He also attempted to thrash Sir Charles, but de- sisted at Mrs. Rogerson’s entreaty. Mrs. Rogerson was called. She denied the state- ments just made by Capt. Foster. Mr. Matthews then addressed the jury on behalf of the petitioner, Mr. Crawford, whom the lawyer described as ‘‘the only one who emerged clean from amid this plentiful throwing of the foulest mud.“ The, lawyer ridiculed Sir Charles Dilke’s reasons for re- maining silent during the previous trial, ‘‘when there was produced against him strong damning evidence of brutal adultery, more befitting the treatment of A prostitute in a French brothel than a refined English lady.’’ Mr. Matthews did not mince matters. He described things in the vernacular with such power as to intensely excite Sir Charles Dilke, who become livid with rage and twice jumped to his feet and essayed to speak, which the Judge sternly prevented him from doing. ANGLO-AMERICAN TELEGRAPH COMPANY. The directors of the Anglo-Americau Tele- graph Company have issued a report to the share-holders which contain the following: The reduction of the tariff from 2 shillings to 1 shilling 8 pence per word, introduced by the Commercial Cable Company on December 24, 1884, resulted in a large decrease in the — revenue produced by the Atlantic Cable true. evertheless, it was determined by the Associated Cable compauies to give the reduced tariff a fair trial in order to avoid a war of rates and to determine as early as pos- sible whether the reduction would result in any remunerative increase of traffic. After more than a year's trial it was found that the very contrary was the case, and as the rival company resorted to means to obtain a greater share of the traffle than the possession of two cables fairly entitled them to, the directors of the associated companies came to the conclu- sion that it was necessary, in the interests of their proprietors, to adopt a low rate. Accord- ingly, an the 5th of May, 1886, the rate was reduced by the associated cable companies to 6 pence per word, and by special arrange- ment with the Western Union Telegraph Com- pany, of America, this tariff was made to ex- tend to all the principal cities and towns in the United States and Canada. For press news a special rate of 3 pence per word between London and New York was also adopted. On the same date the tariff of the Mackay-Bennett cables was reduced to 1 shilling per word. Theeffect of this impor- tant reduction of rates by the associated com- panies has been avery considerable augmen- tation of the traffic, much larger, indeed, than was anticipated as a first result, amounting to over 110 per cent, and although the total re- ceipts have been greatly decreased, the com- pany is earning sufficientto pay its working expenses and to place such a sum to the credit of the renewal fund up to £1,000,000, the limit fixed by the proprietors at the last half-yearly meeting. The unexpected increase in the vol- ume of trafiic immediately upon the introduction of the 6-penny tariff has induced the directors to consider the ex- pediency of adopting permanently a system of low rates. The associated companies possess between them no less than eight cables acro the Atlantic, having a carfying capacity which for practical purposes is unlimited. With such extensive system it is —— their in- terest to encourage a very large traffic at low rates, and by so doing preventafurther mul- tiplication of unnecessary cables. By the re- cent reduction of cable, customers and the pub- lic have the opportunity of answering the ee upon which the tuture rate between urope and America will have to be decided, namely, whether there is sufficient inherent development inthe cable traffic to and from America to warrant a low charge being permanently established. If there be such development and the public respond to the desire of the associated companies to con- tinue working at low rates, it will be to the in- terest of the companies to do so, as they only desire to earn a reasonable return upon the capital invested and prevent further wasteful competition. The directors would remind the proprietors that the company bas now been in existence for over twenty years, and tbat, although high rates were in the first years of the undertaking an absolute necessity and were not at the time objected to by any important class of the community, it has since been found that whenever adopted the result was continuous competition, useless multiplication of cables, and loss of money to allthe companies interested. The directors believe that sooner or later a low tariff will be a necessity and that by taking time by the forelock’’ and making an earnest effort now to establish it, they will secure the cordial approval and co-operation of their customers and the public, without which so important a step could never be successfully adopted. Forming a New Cabinet. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, July 22.—The Queen has accepted Gladstone’s resignation, as usual, without the slightest hesitation and without even extend- ing to him the usual invitation to advise her as to his successor. The Marquis of Salisbury will arrive at Osborn, from Royal, in Auvergne, either to-night or to-morrow morn- ing. The Duke oft _ Argyll and Mr. Goschen are the only 80- called Liberals who will in any event, take office with the Tories. About the new Cabinet it is almost too early to forecast, but I under- stand that Wolseley may go to Ireland to take command of the troops. Lord Ashbourne is as likely as anybody to be Ohief Secretary. Sir Richard Webster will be Attorney-General again. Salisbury’s difficulties in formiug a Cabinet will be necessarily very great, be- cause there are 80 few able men among the Conservative leadersin the Commons. I bave had a conversation witn T. P. O'Connor, rep- resenting the Irish party, in which he spoke as follows ABOUT THE FUTURE: We regard it with perfect equanimity. I would call special attention to the fact that the attitude of journalism of the Irish people is exactly the same in all parts of the world, namely, one of perfect tranquility, even on the part of the most violent Irish-American organs. Such concurrence of opinion among independent authorities must be accepted as representative of very deep and well founded convictions. Uniess there should be a violent outbreak of crime in Ireland, of which there is not the smallest prospect, I am glad to say that six months or a year will probably witness a turn in opinion, which will give Gladstofie such majority as will enable him to carry out his purpose. The present election has been disastrous to the Liberal Unionists; the future elections will be more disastrious still. In the | first place, the tie between them and the Tories will then be broken down; in the geo- ond place, every day proves more conclusively the fact that there is no standing ground de- tween coercion and the hoime-rule scheme which Gladstone proposes; that if Salisbury should introduce a measure of coercion it would be opposed, and there ts not the smallest excuse for such a measure. Tranquility reigns every- where throughout Ireland, except in the North. As to the reports of intimidation, they are lies. There is far more intimidation by the PrimroseLeague. Let me assure you again,’’ said Mr. O'Connor, ‘‘as we have most periect confidence in the future, we feel most He once quarreled with | securely that Gladstone’s policy is destined to achieve a glorious triumph, perhaps at an earlier date, too, than most people imagine.

A meeting of the stockholders of the St. Joseph & St. Louis Railroad was heid at the oftice of Pattison & Crane this morning for the purpose of voting ona proposition to issue $22,000 first mortgage bonds to provide means for improving aud equipping the road. The line isseventy-six miles long, extending from St. Joseph to Lexington, and is in active operation. It was formerly operated by the Wabash under a lease. At the meeting to-day there were present Vice-President Winslow Judson, John R. Lionberger, S. A. Walker of St. Joseph, Assistant Treasurer; I. W. W. Finley of New York, and E. W. Pattison, the latter being the proxy for the other stockhold- ers. Altogether two-thirds of the stockhold- ers, or 7,000 shares, were represented. The meeting unanimously voted to issue the bonds and ratify the sale of the same already made by Vice-President Judson to Massachu- setts parties. The effect of this action will be to enable the company to thoroughly equi the roud with new rolling stock, to lay suc arts in steel rails as are not yet so laid, to argely increase the terminal facilities at St. Joseph and to greatly improve the earning capacity. HER BODY FOUND. Annie Kraemer Drowns Herself While in Delirium. The body of a female found in the river at the foot of Arsenal street this morning has been identified as Mrs. Annie Kraemer, who disappeared from her home, 9032 Sonth Third. street, last Saturday night. She was taken sick on the 15th and was under the care of Dr. Lutz, who says she was suffering from congestion of the brain. Between 8 and 9 o' clock on the l7th, while her husband, who was worn out, was sleeping in a chair, she got up and left the house. She was in her bare headand bare feet, and had nothing on but her night clothes. The unfortunate woman must have gone to the river and thrown herself in, as her body was found to-day dres#gd just as she had been when she left home. An inquest was held on her to-day and the verdict wus suicide while suffering from congestion of the brain. Mrs. SENT TO THE “PEN.” Cases Disposed of To-Day in the Criminal Court, A bill of exceptions was filed in the Criminal Court to-day in the case of Adam Kuenner, convicted of wife murder. This is merely a preliminary step to taking an appeal. Thomas Toomey, convicted of burglary and larceny, was sentenced to five years in the Penitentiary in accordance with the verdict in his case. In the case of August Hausler, charged with burglary and larceny, who pleaded guiity to grand larceny, the court decided he was not under age as claimed, and sentenced him to two years in the Penitentiary. Joseph Burns, charged with grand larceny, pleaded guilty to petit larceny and was sent to the Work-house on a fine of $100. He stole a lot of clothing from George Frisch. BASE BALL.

Parsons said these explosives were kept on hand in preparation fora war that was impending; that the laboring man was being robbed by scoundrelly Bourds of Trade men and others.

Mr. Williamson was severely cross-exam- ined by Capt. Black, but the cross-examina- tion only served to strengthen the testi- mony he had given. He mentioned by name the stores tuat Parsons had urged sack ing. The witness was again taken in hand by Ahe prosecution and said Parsons told him there were 8,000 socialists in the city, and that whenever the time came they would be armed with bombs. He said — were then drillin in halle in various parts of the city, but wauid not say where the halis were located. When the time to act came they would begin opera- tions, on the Market street square aud about the tunnel. Lieut. Shea, Chief of Detectives, was next called. He was at the Arbeiter Zeitun office May 5, atter Spies had been arrested, The building was searched and all in it ar rested. They found piles of manuscript, type in forms, and a quantity of dynumite, all of which was taken to police headquarters. Witness identified the guiley of type on which the ‘‘Revenge’’ circular was printed. Lieut. Shea then gave a conversation he had with Spies after the latter s arrest. Spies said he opened the Haymarket meetingand that Par- sons, Fielden and Schwab were also there. He said he also spoke at the McCor- mick meeting, but knew nothing of what hap pened there later at the meeting. He knew nothing of the circular that was put on the streets. Witness also talked with Fischer, who said he was in the Arbeiter Zeitung office the night of the riot with Schwab, and that Rau brought word that Spies was at the ‘Haymarket and that a big crowd was there and that they ail went there. The belt and dag er and fulminating cap which Fischer mad on when arrested he said he carried for his protection. Witness further said that Spies told him he left before the bomb was thrown, and that Fischer said he was at Zeph's Hall at the time. During the cross-examination, which is con- ducted by Mr. Foster, the lawyer added a sig. nificant ‘‘aha’’ to Shea’s answer that he did not allow Spies to read the original manu- script of the ‘‘Revenge’’ circular so that he could identify it. Judge Gory: That isnot proper The wit- ness must be treated in court with the same courtesy as ou the street. That prolonged ‘Aha’ is not in a proper tone. ‘ uck, amining expert, testified com cerning the diastrous effects of the captured dynamite which be had exploded. Lieut.

I see that you have spelled his name Chaco. The correct rendition of his name is Checo.Checo is in the neighborhood of 50 years of age. For nearly twenty-five years he has been the leader of a band of the most desperate outlaws and mur- derers known in our territory. We have never received any proper protection from the Government. Tire property interests of New Mexico are to-day languishing on account of the tact that the Apaches have never yet been properly controlled or punished, Crook was an imbecile in his attempt to solve the In- dian question. His hobby was the employment of these Apacbes as scouts. Llunderstand that this murderer, Checo, has been employed by the military authorities asa scout. There is plenty of evidence to be found in Silver City to convict Checo. McOomas was a lawyer living in Siiyer Pd He ‘s had . . . Pe = oo 8 with ali tie furniture in it. Some time within accompanied by his wife and boy, that he was the past three days it was entered and the captured by Checo and bis crew. There is } furniture, silverware, etc., scattered about very clear evidence that Checo murdered the floor. 80 far as known nothing is missing. McComas with his own band; atany rate, he was the chiet in command, and was responsi- ble for all the outrages.’’ ‘The Payne Case. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D.

According to the best estimates we have seen the total surplus available for reduction of the public debt is in round numbers §75, 00,008, of which $57,000,000 is in gold coin and 518,000, 000 in silver coin. If the gold coin should first be pid out at the rate of $10,000,000 per month for the redemption of bonds it would not be exhausted in much less than six months, eves ifthere were no addition made to the gold surplus during that period. But it is not reasonable to believe that there would be ug flow of gold into the Treasury. Before th¢ present excess of gold over the fictitious re- demption’’ fund of $100,000,000 had been paid out enpugh new gold would come in to pro vide for the continuance of the paymenté during the fiscal year.

An Unhappy Lady. From the London Truth. A decidedly comic ingjident—which might, however, have had a m@re serious termina- tion—occurred in the conservatory at the bo- tanical fete on Wednesday last. A lady sat down on a Ubinese lantern and set fire to her dress. Two gallant soldiers sprang to the rescue and extinguished the flames, but as the hinder portion of the dréss had suffered con- siderable ravages the unfortunate victim was compelled to sit upon the floor ln a very un- dignified position until some one fetched her a cloak wherewith to conceal the deficiency.

SAM JONES pays some merited compli- ments to the leading public men of Geor- gia, but makes a careful misrepresenta- tion in reference to their politics. They are all Democrats, and Sam is fully cog- nizant of this fact, his statement to the contrary notwithstanding. THE resignations of the English Minis- ters ha ve been accepted by the Queen, and SALISBURY will at once form a Cab- inet. If a purely Conservative government is formed it cannot last without a certain support from the Liberal Unionists, and this will make it liable to a collapse at any time. — — a > . MR. BOUTELLE proposes to punish Can- —, — ada by largely increasing the duties on foreign fish, but such punishment will fall on the fish-eaters of the United States, | rather than on Canadian fishermen. The Protectionist fanatic reasons like a scared ostrich and is insensible to the most patent fallacies. * — * 3 — nn. NRAL Dow indignantly denies that he would support BLAINEk if renominated by the Republicans, and says: The Re- ‘‘publican party is openly, boldly, ir- *‘revocably committed to the defense of „the saloons against the homes of the people.“ This statement is not wholly correct. The Republican party is split wide open on the saloon question, like a ripe watermelon ready to be devoured. ———— — 1 1 Miss CLEVELAND uses the word ichor“ in describing her champion sunset. It is a good word, though not in very common use, and is found in the following lines by THACKERAY, Which are supposed to have a prophetic reference to the St. Louis House of Delegates: Above, they say, our flesh is air, Our blood celestial ichor; Oh, grant, midst all the changes there, They may not change our liquor! — 111 — 1 Ir the Knights of Labor do not cast out the confessed and convicted murderers who have made the organization a basis for their crimes, they cannot complain if they are held responsible before the bar , - —_ — ket vquaro is probably correct in attributing the ab- murders in Chicago, committed by the an- archigts of the Lehr und Wehr Verein, were not a bit worse than the Wyandotte train - wrecking murder committed by Kansas City Knights of Labor. 5 ig The attorney for one of the swindled victims of the Provident Sawdust Bank, announces that he will take depositions and ask questions. We beg to suggest that among the per - tinent interrogatories which might be properly propounded are the following: How much money does President Gan- LAND owe the bank, if any, and how much of the debt is good? ) How much do the directors owe, if any- thing, and how long have they owed it? How much money did the bank lose by running a furniture store after BaRNES and WiepERHOLDT had failed in the at- tempt to run it? How much money did the bank lose in running PETTEs’ art shop after PETTES had failed in it? How much money did the bank lose in running the Gregg diamond business after GRndd had failed in running it? How much money, if any, did the bank lose in running THomas’ law-book pub- lishing business after THomMas had failed in running it? How much money would any rich in- surance company advance on the security on which the Anchor Milling Company borrowed $150,000? Has the bank any debt which is worth the cost of collection? Of course these questions should not be rudely put to the directors, who are gen- tlemen of very sensitjve feelings and who know nothing at all of the affairs of the bank. But Receiver Thompson has ‘‘a large force of clerks’? at work withhold- ing information from the public. Per- haps some of the clerks may have found out something about the great Sawdust Bank mystery. — os MR. HENLEY’S EXPLANATION, A letter in another column from Mr. Tuomas J. HENLEY, the father-in-law of S. M. JACKSON, upon whom the sinecure Indian Tradership at Anadarko was con- ferred, gives an interesting, not to say picturesque, view of the facts out of which that charge of blackmail has sprung. The opening tableau pre- sents Senator Vrst and two promi- nent business Democrats of St. Louis standing behind, or rather “standing in with’’ the beneficiary of a Black Republican Administration in the mat- ter of a tradership which seems to have included some unlawful grazing privileges or perquisites. Mr. HENLEY’s story appears to imply that the tradership was procured for JACKSON with no idea of his going into business at Anadarko, any further than would be necessary to extort a profitable sinecure arrange- ment from the St. Louis syndicate already established there. Mr. HEN- LEY intimates that the President's cattle order so depreciated the value of the trader license that JACKSON saw no chance of extorting a profitable arrange- ment from the St. Louis traders, and gave up his license, thus leaving the ‘‘mare’s nest“ of blackmail as little worth looking into as a last year’s bird’s nest. It ap- pears from Mr. HENLEY’s statement, however, that while the effort to oust Republican incumbents is not always per- fectly clean and in the line of correct civil-service reform, the difficulty in turn- ing them out is sometimes due to the fact that very potent Democratic influence is pecuniarily interested in their being left in undisturbed possession. — .. — THE National Executive Committee of the Socialistic Labor Party” has sent out a pamphlet entitled ‘‘Socialism and An- archism,” which is intended to prove that the two things are opposites, seeking dif- ferent ends and having nothing in com- British democracy to the lan¢ bill. Ir is evident that the Grand- ry was not in Jr GOULD'S pay. 25 | worn-out chestnat. | MEDICAL lectures are out of place both in the public schools and in polities THINGS frequently appear double. The Republican Committee now has that appear- ance, JaY GOULD never waters anytaing with his tears; he coulda’t bear the idea ¢f wasting so much salt. THE House of Delegates is a species of sur- plus that can be disbursed withput injury to the public service. | THE oleomargarine bill has hada triumphant career thus far, but there are dim outlines of a snag abead of it. OuR Delegates might gather souething of the flavor of statesmanship by peruaing the Pow- derly-Bushyhead correspondence THE field is now open for some ambitious Congressman to surpass Mr. HaTCH’s bold allegorical description of Senator INGALLS’ mouth. SomE Chicago people are so pleased with Miss CLEVELAND'S remark aboutthe Western Venice thatthey affect an excessive love of macaron}. _ Sam JONES Ought to visit St. Louis as an hon- orary member of the Democratic State Con- vention. The cold-water programme would please him, - THE Ozar will decorate no more Americans because America never decorates Russians. Under the laws of the country the Government can decorate nobody but convicted criminals. THE number of retractions and apologies now abounding in the Senate shows that the gentlemen composing that body are using their tongues with more effect than their brains. a? A Live Newspaper. From the Philadelphia Times. The St. Louis PostDISPATCH some time since published an account of a disgraceful drunken frolic participated in by members of the Municipal House of Delegates of that city. The local statesmen, by way of getting even, refused to aliow the reporters of the PoOS8T-DISPATCH access to the Delegate Chamber. That journal retorted by charying certain of the wembers with hold- ing seats for which they were disqualified by law, and certain others with 1 oben blackmail. This resulted in an investi- gation by the Grand-jury and the finding of indictments against five members for drunkenness and and against three others for levying blackmail. The charge of taking the oath of office by members who were legally disqualified was sustained, but the offense having been committed more than a year ago, prosecutions were debarred by the statute of limitations. What makes this action of the Grand-jury particu- larly uncomfortabte for a lot of the Delegates is the fact that the statutes of Missouri contain a section declaring drunken- ness in office a misdemeanor punishabie by six months’ imprisonment and forfeiture of offi- cial position. The punishment for blackmail is imprisonment for not less than two years or more than five. It is claimed that the charge of drunkenness can be abund- antly verified if the Circuit Attorney is at all in earnest in pushing the vases, and that in all probability that gf blackmail will be fully made out. The moral of this little episode seems to be that a live newspaper is more et- fective in compelling official rectitude and decency than all other agencies combined. MEN OF MARK.

The Anadarko Tradership. To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: In your valuable and reliable paper of yes- terday and in several issues previous you have been taking the statements of Cleveland, the Anadarko Indian trader, and his attorney, one Hunter, as stated before the United States Committee, as facts anc have been led into the mistake of charging Indian Commissioner J. D. C. Adkins and Judge Howell E. Jackson with attempting to blackmall Cleveland. Now the facts are these, and if there is any black- mail about it 1 am the man and not them. Both Cleveland and Reynolds received their li- cense as Indian traders at Anadarko some years ago through the influence of Jim Bannerman, Dave Caruth and Senator Vest, Bannerman and Carut g their bondsmen, so I under- stoo {ter President Cleveland was elected ip-~was expected that Democrats would be ap- pointed to the various offices, and of course it was expected that the outgoing Republicans would die bard. In the natural course of events my son-in-law, S. M. Jackson of Dyers- burg. Tenn., received a license as Indian Trader at Anadarko, I. T. Igave his bond here, and David Caruth was one of his bonds- men. Soon as it was learned here that Jackson had a license, as well as two other parties, to trade at Anadarko, and that the old Hayes and Garfield traders would have to go, I learned that ‘*Oleveland’’ and Reynolds“ were both creditors and customers of Jim Bannermann and Dave Caruth. And as Caruth was one of Jackson’s bundsmen, it was nothing but right and proper to try and protect Caruth’s interest as best we could. So ladvised Jack- son to accept either Cleveland or Reynolds as a partner, that Caruth might select, as both were largely indebted to him, and if some ar- rangement was not made of the kind both Caruth and Bannerman would get badly left. I wished the arrangement made especially on account of Jackson's wife’s health. She was notin a condition to go to Anadarko, or for him to leave and go without her (she having since died). Senator Vest * to be at Sweet Springs at the time and Bannerman went up to see him. Cleveland was here and I made the proposition to him myself to make arrangements with Jackson. And when Presi- dent Cleveiand’s order was sued to the cat- tlemen to vacate the Indian bbe snd mg! I ad- vised Jackson to give up his trader’s license, as there would be no money in it it they left the Territory, which he did.

This expjana- | gated and found that certificate No. 378 of + 10 tion has not been given. In this instance the pleasure of the directors | is the order of proceeding. This doubtless is quoted as saying that on the preceding Mo, will seem a harshand extreme view to the citizens who were in charge of the defunct bank, and whose standing in the community, they may think, should shield them from such criticism in this affair. Distasteful as so plain a tale ofreprehensible eonduct may be to those whose actions are under criticism, the depositors are entitled to be fully informed and the features of the fail- ure are herewith presented. The facts and statements have not been given to the public; they have been extracted piecemeal. Nothing is presumed; nothing de- ducted. The case is the reluctantly admitted evidence of the bank officers. On Monday, 12th inst., it was discovered that Almon B. Tomson, the cashier, had absconded with $15,000 of the reserve fund ofthe bank. An in- vestigation concluded at 2 o’clock Tuesday morning showed that the absconding cashier had stolen $20,000 in 1883 ana carried it con- cealed in the exchange maturing account; $4,000 had been obtained ona genuine certificate of fifty shares of the Provident Bank stock, a forged certificate being left in its stead; $8,500 was obtained as a loan on a certificate of stock inthe Crystal Plate Glass Company, which had been fraudulently raised from one to 100 shares. At worst, the deficits discovered amounted to $44,554. This was partially pro- tected by Thomson's gilt-edge bond for $30,- 000, and so it occurred that fourteen days after declaring a dividend of 8 per cent and trans- ferring $21,000 surplus earnings to the profit and loss account, the discovery of a shortage, which on investigation proved to be only S814, 554, the bank closed its doors, by the advice of its present receiver. \ Such are the facts—a highly unsatisfactory array—presented at the time of the failure. What was subsequently developed was by the efforts of the newspapers, and is a much more reasonable explanation of how the bank reached its present straits. A long time ago Mr. J. W. 8. Garland, the President of the bank, succumbed tothe worry caused by bad investments. This fact only gained publicity after Cashier Thumson’s defalcation had been given out asthe cause of the failure. How far the losses which unsettied President Gar- land were retrieved, or what they definitely amounted to, has never been stated. Almon B. Tnomson, the cashier, was entruated with the discharge of many of the duties of the office of President, The re- mainder devolved on Vice-Presidefit Thomas H. Swain. Almon Thomson s henesty was never suspected, though he had stolen $20,000 in 18883, and made fraudulent en- tries on the maturing exchange account, which, to use the taie-telling words of hisown letter“ till show instantly on examination.’’ His life had been a double role—the suave and respected church member and cashier of Provident Savings Bank, and the roistering „ Prince Hal, whose liberality in the indul- gence ofrefined viciousness made him noto- rious among thedemi-monde. With this lat- ter character the bank OMcers were ape unacquainted. How much it had to do wit the bringing about of the present condition of things is consequently of no bearing here. But he was not alone the polite, salaried cashier, devoting his best efforts to the bank for a salary of A. 000 a year. He maintained another relation to the Board of Directors. He was a borrower, interested in several concerns of doubtful futures, and for the furtherance of which interests be had borrowed $23,500 from the bank. His note and the stock cer- tificates of these concerns had been accepted and carried among the assets of the bank. The fraudulent Thiel note for $2,000; the em- bezzlement of the Art School subscriptions amounting to 425and the commandery sub- scription of $554 and the allowance ofa small overdraft to a personal friend, W. H. Howe, complete the list of the cashiers secret sins against the bank. Itis true, as is claimed, that they were the cause ofthe suspension— but only the last-straw cause. His was not the only reprehensible conduct. It now develops that the Provident Bank, with a capital of only $200,000, had loaned $150,000 to the Anchor Milling Company in direct violation of section 916 of the revised statutes, which make it uniawful to lend over 25 percent of the capital stock under such circumstances. In defense of this it has been stated that the loans were made at different times and latterly only to insure the return of the first advances. This plea of jack-pot financeering must be really con- soling to the depositors. Italso develops that loans had been made to the law book house of Frank Thomas, which failed, to Publisher Byrnes, to Henry B. Pettis and to Raymond Gregg, for which law books, plates, a picture stock and diamonds had to be accepted by the bank. Such a banki business is not sanctioned by any other institution in the city and is much nearer to pawn-broking than to banking. None of this was the secret work of 8 Others must shoulder the responsi- ity. On the first of the present month the semi- annual statement of the bank was made for the six months ending June 30. Then the assets were nearly $200,000 in excess ot the liabilities and a dividend of 8 per cent wus declared on the 2,000 shares of stock. Besides this asurplus of $21,000 of the earnings was transferred to the profit and loss accounts. In this connection the law is here given: Sec. 913, Revised Statutes.—The board of directors may declare a semi-annual dividend, provided the corporation be fuily soivent without such earnings proposed to be divided, But they shall not deciare adividend at any time when the capitai of such corporation shall have become impaired to such an extent that it is not worth in good resources the full amount paid in after the payment of all liabil- ities; and any officer or director of such cor- — — who shail assent to declaring and pay- ng atiividend while the stock is so impaired shall be personally liable to the creditors of the corporation to the amount of his proportion of the proposed dividend, if any loss shouid occur by reason of the payment of such divi- dend. hen the capital stock shall have be- come impaired to the extent of 245 per cent. thereot by reason of bad loans or otherwise such corporations shall cease to do business unless such capital stock shall have been made | good by assessment in sixty days, or reduced | — to the impairment. ne directors could not have been in ignor- ance of thislaw, and it is due them to take that statement fortrue. Yet Mr. Swain has said that he knew the bank was in bad con- dition six months ago. Taking into consider- ation the defaication of Cashier Thomson, con- | sisting of the 515.000 taken from the reserve , fund, and the $ | the Crystal Oity Piate Glass Company certifi- 500 fraudulentiy obtained on cates, together with the fact that no crisis had occurred during the intervening fourteen days the figures of July u in the petition fora re- ceiver looks very reasonable.

Is the delay of nine days in presenting an inventory of the bank's business to the court necessary? This is the light in which the victims view the failure. These are the questions it desired Judge Lubke will have answered at once, and the mysteries that should de cleared away, so that the responsibility can be properly placed. THE MASSACHUSETTS DELEGATION, A Movement to Secure the Election to Congress of Protectionists. By Telegraph to the Posr-Drieraren. Boston, Jaly 22.—There is atolerably well authenticated report that the Congressional canvass in this State is to be enlivened by the interference of acombination ofthe various interests affected by certain propositions be- fore Congress. There has been a feeling among protectionists for several years that the Massachusetts delegation has not been as strong and influential as their interests de- manded. At a recent conference of men who think their business depends uponthe main- tenance of the protective tariff itis under- stood that the Massachusetts man- ufacturers caught some ory. hard raps from the Pennsylvanians and New Yorkers. The confreres from this State were told in lain terms that had it not been for the exer- ions and vigilance of others Massachusetts industries would long ago have been subjected to sharp competition from abroad. Men were sent to Congress from Pennsylvania and New York, it was asserted, because they had pro- tective views and were abie to fight for them while the protectionists of Massachusetts had left everything to the politicians with the natural resuit that this industrial State did not have a man to-day in the House who was any help in a fight with tariff re- formers. The Western and Southern Democrats had gone in for immediate and sweepin reduction in tariff duties and they would come back to the next Con- rress determined to do something that would nsure them of this issue in 1888, And so tie talk went on, the conference adjourning only after a scheme of battle had been devised and adopted. On this basis a committee is now proeeeding to business. The plan ig to enlist every protected industry in the State in the movement against the puliticians and Con- ression ‘‘deadheads.’’ The Massachusetts ommittee will try to raise a considerable sum of money and then go to work SMASHING PARTY SLATES. This movement nas no connection with the oleomargarine talk, although the help of the welcomed. The oleomargarine men them- selves have hardly the power to do ail that they are credited with or an intention of doing, since they represent only a smali local industry. Of course, the last thing in the worid thatthe ornanizers of this new move ment wish to have known is their choice of Congressioual candidates. The cleomargarine men, itis said, have expressed a desire to assist Gen. Butler in a vigorous canvass of the Lowell and Lawrence district, and it is not improbable that the old warrior has given them more or less encouragement. For ser eral months, too, there have been whispers of a big movementin the same direction by the Protectionists, wno feel that the general, free from political entanglements, could make it hot for the anti-tarifl men on the floor of the House. An influential and well-informed ke publican is sure that he has had a peep at the details of the proposed tariff campaign, and be says that this new and powerful element wil! ; | ' : , ’ i | side with ex-Senator Randall on the First Dis- trict, John D.

K DUDE WHO 18 A GAMBLER AND AN OPIUM SMUGGLER. — ~The Interest Mission in New York seu Career of a Well-Educated Morgo- nan Who Talks Good English and presses in Fine style—Something About Opium Smuggling. h to the Post-DISPATCH. War YORK, July 22.—Twak Ming is a N faced, square-shouldered, egg-eyed — 6 Chinaman, who wears his long queus tie 7? under his hat so snugly that it can’t be seen. ne wears American clothes and Chinese gar- ments alternately, as fancy OF interest hap- pens to strike him. In San Francisco, for in- stance, where he belongs, and where he has made and lost fortunes in all sorts of crooked and devious ways, Twak disports himself in psrisian trousers in the day time and dons Mongolian sacks at night. The reason is that auring the duy he associates with white men, nile at night he shuflles about among his prethren of the queue. Twak fsa gambler, a smuggler, a sparrow fighter and a trader in Hong Kong teas and gimecracks. He is well- educated, speaks good English without any accent, and Knows as much about human nature as any Bowery bunco man. His Chinese costume is in the most orthodox pat- tern, consisting of 4 soft flat hat, a gorgeous mainsail blouse and trousers, and ur v d polished and ny wooden shoes, cary ed and ft — up at the toes like the nose of a Vene tian gondola. When be changes his make- a TWAK IS ALTOGETHER A DUDE. He affects tight check trousers, creased down the leg so as to look new, a cutaway —— dazziing patent-leather shoes and a super and glittering black plug hat. His neck tie is preathiess in e effects, and on the little finger of his right land rests a ponder- ous onyx ring chased with diamond-eyed lrugons and birds. gab Ming is at present in Bellville, visiting welaundrymen. He came East a short time ago fortue double purpose of having a good time and cultivating sparrow fights and gam biing generally. He expects to establish an 4 CHINES extensive opium — and gaming table in Mott streetand will, in all seamen tent by set up avranchsbop in Newark or Belleville. Un- like bis brethren, Twak is venturesome and communicative, and makes no pretence of concealing Lis plans. He is by no means pop- yiar witb his brethren on account of his dou- die lite, but at the same time they all respect him. He is practically out of the reach of the police. He understands every move that is made to checkmate bis schemes, and shields all his shady operations behind the impenetrable barrier of Mongolian reticence. A Chinaman will die rather than divulge a secret. The writer had along talk with Twak, yesterday, regarding his life on the Pacific coast and bits Eastern visit, and it is only fair that the readers of the Post-DIs- paTCH should know whatthe dougbty littie Chinaman had to say for himself. He candid- ly aliowed that be was not afraid to talk, or to have what he said printed. because although the authorities might know of his illegal ca- reer, they could not touch him without ev- idence, which, he refreshingly added, will be mighty hard to do. Twak’s great life work has been OPIUM SMUGGLING. He has been at it since 1870, being now 89, and has cleared upward of $250,000, a good partof which, however, has been lost again in gam- bling. Twak is now worth about 580, 000. ‘‘When I came from China, said Twak Ming, twenty years ago, I was amused to see a couple of midshipmen tugging at a rotten log of wood, which they dumped overboard a short distance out from land in San Francisco bay. It floated in the water and presently two white men and a Chinaman came along in u row boat and picked it up. I followed up the elew and found that the log, which bad dern hollowed out and sealed, contained ten pounds of contraband opium. That repre- senied a loss to the Government of about Hie or $19 a pound. My curiosity was further aroused, as when the =P on which I came 0 neared the wharf, the sailors gathered up a lotoftrubbish, apparently, such as used-up iron wong ts, old broom handles, boiler sticks and even broken boits of timber, des- tined ostensibly for the junk shop, but every one of which was stuffed with opium. My eyes were opened, and in no time atall, Iwas band in giove with the crack smugglers ofthe town. The first thing did Was to study the English language 60 as to be ade to Watch the Custom’s Inspectors, who, then as now (except when they can be bribed), wereexceedingly vigilant. Some of the imspectors are in league with the smug- glers and reap tremendous proiita. There is no business in which a man can make so much money, because opium free of duty is worth its weight in gold. An abie smuggler can make thousands in a month, but, of course, he must be constantly devising new shifts and can scarcely repeat the ex- pedient twice. In that respect, at least, it is A TRYING BUSINESS, and requires as much nerve and ingenuity as steck gambling. Ihave known Chinamen to fill the soles of their wooden shoes with the drug and it is a common thing to have opium sewel up in the clothes on their backs. Phy. sinuggiers go to the extreme of boring holes ‘intle floor of the ship and filling them with opitm. Once I did that myself, but it was impossible to get it ashore, owing to the way we were watched, and it was carried back and forth to China three trips before we could get at it. Two steamers tal to San —— — Hong Kong, each unth and thousands of pounds of opium are guggled ia them. 1 don't think that much mre than half of the opium imported to this ®untry is duty paying. Last year, for in- fance, according to the returns, 54,000 pounds were imported, whereas, in 1873, 92,000 pounds were imported. The comparison is ridicu- lous and shows the extent to which smuggling is carried on, because it is well known that t dog utter howls of pain, and rushing to he front of the store to ascertain the cause he found that a large bull-dog was ae 4 lit- tle canine to pieces.

Everything is on the move, and the yerson who don't realize tue truth of the maxim that ‘‘tempus does fugit’’ should drop in at the big building on Thirteenth and (jive streets, There he would be surprised to be told that the Exposition is only a little more then a month distant, and he would be sili more surprised on walking through the naves and seeing the statement corrobo- rated by the extensive preparations for displays seen on every hand. What wasa few days ago a dusty mass of dead display cases is now a heterogeneous mixture of new scaffolding, platforms, supports and other exhibition ac- companiments. The east nave especially is in aforward way. There nearly all of last year’s exhibit stands have been moved out and carpenters are busy erect- ing the basis for new structures. In the west nave the big cases still remain, with one or two exceptions, but even here the work- men are employed in rigging up one or two ffixtures.

CHICAGO, July 22.—Mrs. Alfred Barry and son and Mrs. H. C. Stover and son, had a nar- row escape from a fearful death yesterday afternoon. The two ladies and their children drove up in a carriage to the west approach of the Lake street bridge just as the tender — the bell of warning that the structure woul: be opened for the passage of a vessel. Mrs. Stover was driving and she halted her horse, a spirited animal, on the edge of tLe viaduct. Justthenatrain passed under the viaduct. Tue hissing sounds made by the engine startled the horse beyond the control of its driver and it made a dash toward the swing- ing bridge. Mrs. Stover made a brave attempt to check the horse by pulling on the reins, but her efforts availed nothing. Mrs. Barry and her son threw theniselves out of the carriage and called upon Mrs. Stover and her son to do the same. Meer Brennan saw the runaway. Springing forward he caught he horse’s head and attempted to stop his flight but he was knocked down and the carriage passed over his body. The horse continued on his course and succeeded in running upon the bridge, but before he could drag the buggy on the roadway the structure had swung too far and it crashed againat one of the massive arches. The shock of the collision released the horse from his harness and threw both the lady and her son from their seat clear over the dash board on the road-bed of the bridge. The buggy rolled into the river and Officer Bren- nan’sactionin catching the runaway saved the lives of Mrs. Stover and child, and he alone was seriously injured. He will be laid up for some time. The ladies and children escaped with afew bruises. A Schooner’s Perilous Trip.

The President's Sister Assumes Editorial Charge of Literary Life.” New YORK, July 22:—A Tribune dispatch from Holland Patent, N. Y., says: Miss Rose Elizabeth Cleveland, who is at her summer re- sort, ‘‘The Weeds,’’ near this village, has made the final arrangements as editor of the Literary Life, of Chicago. A. P. I. Elder, the publisher, has beén in consultation with her for the past three days. Before going to Chi- cago yesterday he said: ‘‘I have regretted to learn of the many false reports that appeared in the newspapers. There have been no quar- rels or misunderstandings between editor and publisher. Neither Miss Cleveland nor myself expect to make a success of the magazine ex- cept on its literary merits.’’ Mr. Elder is annoyed bythe reports and wants the press to let him alcne. Miss Cleve- land will take charge of the magazine with the August number. She intends, as does the publisher, that the magazine shail succeed sole y upon its literary merits and not upon the name of any individual. She said last evening: At present 1 can only have anxiety. I realize the responsibility of the possition I bave assumed toward the magazine and 1 feel most“ keenly how wholly valueless to the enterprise are 1 ane everything, however speviously set forth, excepting solid, intrinsic literary merit. Of this, however, I do not despair. Indeed, of this lam very sure, for the price at which it comes has been tully counted, and I think we are prepared, publisher and editor, to pay that price in the coin which it demands —patience and work. There are few good things they will not buy.“ In the August number, which will be the first issue under her management, will appear an original poem dy, withafull page portrait and biographical sketch of, Paul H. Hayne. Among the contributors to this number are Maurice Thompson, John Burroughs, the Rev. David Swing, Margaret Preston, Clinton Scollard an others. Under the title of Editorial Talks“ Miss Cleveland will contribute a number ot short editorials. In her leading editorial she will say: Literary L.fe will open its pages to the best literature, and to that only, not by any means ignorin the fact that standards differ as do tastes, an that our standard in literature may be that of our critics, not always that of our friends. Contributors will be recognized solely upon the ground of the literary merit of their manu- scripts. We propose to make no discrimina- tion in favor of those writers whose names are celebrated. Our motto is pure gold for pure gold by whomsoever brought. There will be six editorials from her pen, one on The East and the West“ and another on The Professional Critics,’’ in which she scourges the critics as persons who have failed in literature and art. is true that Miss Cleveland will inspect all advertisements that appear in the magazine, and has already de- clined numerous advertisements nuw appear- ing in other magazines and in the religious papers. She will have her own way in every- thing that refers tothe conduct of the maga- will submit to her wishes gracefully and will- ingly. Until September 1 Miss Cleveland will work upon her novel, Washington Life, Rex and ex-Rex,’’ and after that date will di- vide her time Weeds’’ at Holland Patent. ARKANSAS REPUBLICANS.

Y., July 22.—Albany people have given themselves up, body and soul, to- day, to the task of celebrating the ineorpora- tion of their city by Gov. Thomas Dougan just 200 years ago. The uproar that broke lossa h midnight when the bells announced the arrival ot the anniversary continued until daylight. Men, boys and even women went up and down the principal streets blowing horns and singing until morning came, Men and boys organized themselves into marchin bands and went from one part — the city to another blowing two or three horns together and stopping before hotels and private residences and giving impromptu seranades. Smull cannon kept up their salutes and bonfire’s lighted up the principal streets, and thre red fires glow was reflected from the skies above until they paled in the gray approaching morning. All the noise and enthusiasm that Albany may have had pent ap within herself for the last two centuries seemed to have suddenly found vent. Thou- sands of persons remained up through the Right and were as read and eager to in start or to-day’s celebration as though they had enjoyed the most re- freshing sleep. The arrival of President Cleveland was the firat important event of the day. The time fixed for his coming was 6 a. m. Before that hour the Burgesses Corps, under command of Maj. Vansandt, with the Plattsburg band at their head, marched to the West Shore depot and drew up in line in read- iness for the coming train. COuarriages contain- ing Mayor Thatcher,ex-Mayor Banks and other citizeps and city officials were also in waiting. Without the lines formed by the militia stood five or six hund- red citizen who had come to welcome the President. Afew minutes after 6 o’clock the expected special train bearing the Presidential party steamed into the depot. Mayor Thatch- er, ex-Mayor Banks and several of the Anni- | changed greetings with the President. Mayor Thatcher, on behalf of the a „bade him wel- um for coming from Washington to join them in celebrating the anniversary of Albany’s natal day. The President greeted his friends warmiy and said it gave bim pleasure to be with them again. Secretaries Bayard aud Whitney and Private Secretary Lamont, like the President himself, whom they accom- panied, looked bright and fresh after their night’s rest in the sleeping coach of the spe- cial train on which they had made their jour- ney. ‘The party were immediately escorted to the coaches awaiting. Before entering the carriage in which he rode without the Mayor, President Cleveland was warmly greeted by an old farmer from Delaware County, who broke through the line and clasped the Presi- dent's hand betore any one conld stop him. „Well, this is Grover!’’ he exclaimed. „es, sir, answered the President, smil- ing pleasantly. The Burgesses Corps, which acted as escort for the Pres- dent, at once took up the line of march and the Presidential party were driven to the Governor's Mansion. While passing a hand some private residence one of the blinds opened just sufficiently to permit a white, shapely arm to be thrust forth. The arm waved a handkerchief and the President raised his hat in response to . the greeting. The arm was withdrawn, appa- rentiy pleased with the acknowledgement of its salutation: On the arrival of the visitors at the Executive Mansion Gov. IIIII recieved them as his guests. Soon after breakfast was served and all partook of it with appetites whetted by their long. journey und early,rising. Having discharged their duty to the President, the Burgesses Corps at once sat about accomplishing another pleas- ing task. This was to weicome the veteran corps of the Seventh Regiment of New York. The corps marched down to the steamboat wharf, and at about S o'clock the Drew, bear- ing their expected guests, arrived at its land- | ing. The veterans breakfasted on board the steamer, and, having thus forti- fied themselves forthe work of the day. dis- embarked, and with Cappa’s band at their heed, marched tothe armory of their escort- ing hosts. Every arriving train and boat brought in new uniformed companies who had accepted the invitation totake part in the military parade of the day. The music of their band and the measured tread of their feet could be heard on every side as they marehed hither and thither escorted by com- panies of Albany's militia who performed the pleasant duty of host. WIDENING THE ROAD BED. Meeting of the Stockholders of the St. L., A. & T.—Railroad Notes. The stockholders of the St. Louis, Arkansas & Texas Railroad held aspecial meeting this morning. There were 124,990 of the 200,000 shares represented, the owner of the remaining ten shares being absent in Europe. It was uanan- imausly voted to authorize the issuance of first mortgage bonds to the amount of $4,000 per mile, for the purpose of widening the gauge and remodeling the rollin stock so as to conform to the standar auge. This amount is not in addition to the 3,000 per mile voted some time since. It is the remaining portion of it. The amount of $9,000 per mile has partially been and is being expended in the purchase of the road and paying off the obligations of the court and receivership, The first mortgage wilt now amount to $13,000 per wile in the total, and the amount to be used of the $4,000 portion will foot up just $2,950,000, all of which goes into the road bed, motive power and rolling-stock. After the stockholders had adjourned the Board of Di- rectors met to receive the report of President S. W. Fordyce of the stockholders’ meeting. The work of widening the gauge and getting ready for the change has been in progress quite a while, and over five hundred miles are ready to push the rails apart. Over eleven hundred cars have been contracted forand the necessary changes to locomotives are being made as fast as possible. The spirit of improving rolling stock is in- vading the older and more established roads and everything indicates a busy railroad sea- son for the next year or year anda half. Col. Joseph Hill, general manager of the Vandalia, has just given an order the Indianapolis Car Works for 800 box oars. Several other roads are about to request bids for engines and rolling stock.

This evening’s opening concert will doubt- less be well attended. Everything is in readiness. The hall of gigantic dimensions is resplendent in the simple but effective decora- tio of Wisconsin fir-trees, whose green branches fill the air with that wholesome aroma for the exhalation of which the native forests are renowned. A part of the side aisles of the ball is re- served asthe headquarters of the press and equipped with numerous tables and other paraphernalia essential to the welfare of the newspaper correspondents.

There ia some prospect that the next meet- ing of the North American Saengerbund may be held in St. Louis, as it was fourteen years ago. The twelve societies of St. Louis, rep- resenting at least 1,000 members, have been instructed to make an energetic effort to bave the meeting next July held here. Milwaukee only led St. Louis last yearin the choice of location by two votes. Since then the St. Louis societies have had quite an in- oreuse in membership sufficient to give them at least fourteen votes, which they think will be larger any other delegation Now that they have in the Exposition Hall building large enough to accommodate them, they feel that they are entitled to it. When the meeting was held here in 1872 there was no building large enough to accommodate the crowd, and it was necessary to construct a temporafy one at Eleventh and Washington avehue.

Faushaw’s Suit for Slander Against a Volitician and Capitalist. By Telegrapb to the Post-DIsPraTcaH. NEW YORK, July 22.—Harry E. Fanshaw will bring suit to-day for $50,000 damages against John B. Alley for libel and slander. Both parties to the suit are weil known and have figured prominently of late in various speculations and financial transactions. Mr. Fanshaw bases his suit upon certain remarks and reflections upon his character, which he declares Mr. Alley made to friends of the former, and which have injured him both in business aud social circles... Besides this he ulleges that he has suffered in business transactions with Mr. Alley. Mr. Fanshaw is the son ofa retired and wealthy dry goods merchant and is well known in society. Quite recently he was a prominent member of the Stock and Produce Exchange, and by a series of fortunate speculations in mining stocks ac- cumulated a good deal of property. With this money he started the Postal Telegraph Com- pany and secured Mr. Alley as an interested member. About a year ago Mr. Fanshaw withdrew from the company, having lost nearly all his property, and a short time afterward Mr. Ailey left it, but considerably richer by his trunsactions. Mr. Fanshuw closed his office in this city and resigned from the Union League Club, of which he was a member, and is now living at Brick Church, N.J. Mr. John B. Alley has been beiore the public for a number of years as A POLITICIAN AND A WEALTHY CAPITALIST. Some years ago he wasa Congressman from his home at Lynn, Mass. While in Washington he became acquainted with Stephen W. Dorsey. He figured in the Credit Mobilier investigation aud isa large stockholder in the Union Pacific Rail- road. During the star route trials Alley came again to the surface and bought an in- terest in Dorsey's cattle ranche in Texas, which he now owns. Since then he has been more or less of a politician, and is said to have accumulated some $15,000,000 from spec- ulations in railroad, telexraph and mining stocks. To the Post-DISPATCH correspondent r. Fanshaw said: 1 have“ begun suit Mr. Alley to vindicate myself reason, but more in order to punish him, I have heard from all quarters and on all hands of his making insinuations against me and of saying such things as that I couid not be trifsted, and that my word was of no value Iwas the means of getting him into the Postai Tele- graph Company, where he made a great deal of money while I lostaconsiderabie sum. It so happened that I was, unfortunately, in possession of certain facts about this time that compelled me to bea witnessina suit against him. He requested me not to testify avainst him and afterward warned me not to go on the stand or he would impeach me. 1 was summoned to court and gave my testimony, however, and he then said that he would not believe me under oath. He not only said this to me, but I can show he said the same to many of my friends. After the thing had gone on some time 1 wrote Mr. Alley a letter asking him to retract these statements, or stand the consequences of a suit for slander. He re- plied that if I saw fit I might go to his counsel and he would do what was right. Of course 1 was not looking forany such settlement. and at once took steps to bring the suit. I have so informed him and told him that whatever I got out of it would go to some charity. I do not care for the money and it’s of little con- sequence how much he may have to pay save as to the punishment,which I feel he deserves. If Jonly get 6 cents it is sufficient to vindi- cate me, d show that Mr. Alley is wrong. My counselinforms me that I have a good case and I see no reason why I should not recover a good part of the 350,000. Mr. Fanshaw and lawyer refused to talk about the case. Hesaidthe papers had not yet been served on Mr. Alley and he did not wish to discuss the matter. Mr. Alley is now in Massachusetts. Wanted Immediately.

By Telegraph to the Post-DisPaTcn. PORTLAND, Me., July 22.—A romance cul- minuted last week in the marriage of a Nevada millionaire and a lady of the town of Foxcroft. Thirty-two years ago Abram O. Savage, then a young man of marked business ability, met Mies Chadbourn, one of the most beautiful of the social belles of singham, in this State. An attachment sprang up, which, in afev months resulted in an engagement. The young man found the quiet little farming town tou small to satisfy his ambition, and, soon aiter bis engugement to Miss Chadbourn, he left for the West to make his fortune and then return for his bride. He settled in Nevada and pros- pered from the start. His business career, however, seemed to make him forget the sweetheart he had lett in Maine. His letters were few and fur between and short, and at length ceased altowether. At first, Miss Chadbourn tried to excuse his apparent indiflerence on the ground that he must be very busy. Then she grew melan- choly and aiterward resentful. Inthe mean- time she formed the acquaintance of William Bassett, a likely young man of Foxcroft. They apparently fell in love with each other at sight. In afew weeks they were engaged and within three months became man and wife. Both were industrious and as time wore on they acoumulated considerable property. Then Bassett went to California to improve his fort- une. Ashort time after he left Bingham. DISAGREKABLE RUMORS about his conduct came to the ears of his wife. She was at first almost heart-broken over his actions and a correspondence of a very un- pleasant nature sprang up between them. She tearned that Bassett cared no more for her und at length a mutual g¢yreement to scparate was made. The property was divide equally. Mrs. Bassett, with her share of the money, opened a first-class boarding-house in Foxcrolt which she has kept ever since. Sav- axe, in the meantime, had been piling up wealth until now his property is estimated at 31.000, 000. A short time ago Mrs. Bassett went to Bingham, and while there she metone of Savage's most intimate friends. She told him about everything that had hap. pened to her since ber separation from Sav- age. This friend immediately wrote the whole story to the Nevada milliouaire. As soon as Savage received the letter he arranged his busiaess for a long absence and told hie clerks that he should be gone about eight weeks. He took the next train east and ina few duys was with the sweetheart of his boy hood days. The meeting ie said to have been an affectionate one, although thirty-two years had passed since they had last seen each other. Old memo- ries seein to be awakened and the old attach- mentsprang up again. Mr. Savage made an offer of marriage and it was accepted. Mrs. Bassett at once began the work of clearing up her business affairs, and two weeks ago the boarding-bouse was sold. Last week she be- came the wite of Millionaire Sav and the started at once for their home in Ne- vaca. Only #1.90 per eet, triple-plaied teaspoons. Only #3.76 per set, triple- plated tablespoons.

The Italian Tardy in Putting Up a Forfeit— Eastern and Western Base Ball Men at War Again—The Champion Stakes at Monmouth—Cycling Chat and Base Ball Gossip. Antonio Pierre, the Greco-Roman wrestler, who arrived in this city last Tuesday, says that he is anxious to wake a match on almost any terms, agreeing even to forſet $50 in case he fails to throw his man four times in one night. Yesterday afternoon John Delargy called at the PosT-DIsPaTcH office and of- fered to back an unknown wrestler against Pierre, the conditions to be a stake of $50 a side and the winner to take the entire gate receipts. Delargy further placed in the hands of this paper $25 as forfeit money. Thus, if Pierre means business he can arrange a match on even better terms than he desires himself. The Italian athlete could uot be found this morn- ing, but Tom Allen, whom he had named as bis backer. said that such a proposition is quite agreeable, but that he would first have to consult with Pierre before making any arrangements. When the latter posts a forfeit on the match Delargy is ready to make arrangements for the time, place and details of the affuir. Pierre is no mean wrestler, and the Spinion of his abilities expressed by Greek George and ublished in the Post-DIsPpATcH of Tuesday sno mean one. Delargy’s man is said to be a good one also, andthe match, if arranged, would no doubt be a good one. -— nm DEFEAT OR DISCIPLINE. Eastern Managers Want the Westerners to Get One or the Other. It would seem that the war on the Western managers and clubs by their associates in the East bas not stopped withst. Louis. A Balti- more paper of Tuesday says: ‘‘As the Pitts- burg club scored the winning run yesterday, and the team was leaving the field, a certain player on the team is said to have used some very improper language toward the spectators in the grand stand, which nearly resulted ina little unpleasantness for that individual. The language used was similarto that reported during the fight between Bushong and Latham of the St. Louis team,in June, and shouid President Wikoff get he cueit will result in the player getting something that is unpleas- ant. The player is one of Pittsburg's strong- est men, and it is understood that an attempt was made last night to induce Baltimore not to prefer charges, which would be proper— although, it would, no doubt, cause a bad feeling between the two clubs. The majority ofthe players in the whe natin. club have be- haved in a very ungentiemanly way since they have been here, notonly toward the specta- tors, but toward the umpire ,and the Ameri- can Association, ifonly to sustain its reputa- tion, should take a hand and call them down. The Pittsburg management is said to encour- age the conduct, because it assists in winning ames. The club, since the Barkley case, has ad no love for the Baltimore club, and would sooner win from them than from any other club in the Association. The game won July3 in Pittsburg by the Balti- mores wus the hardest dose swallowed by that team, and they have in every way tried to get even. During yesterday's game the player referred to, together with others, used some improper Janguage toward the umpire, and fines should have fallen fast on them. The Pittsburg elub never did like Valentine and tried in numerous ways to have him dropped. The feeling is said to have originated in the old Columbus club, and is still held by certain players on the team, who at every opportunity try to intimidate the umpire by the use of lan- guage not fitfor publication. The conduct of the 4 pte players will no doubt be investi- gated. Wnen in St. Louis last Manager Phillips said he was waiting ſor just such an occurrence as thut described above and that the Pittsburg folks could expect no mercy from the Associa- tion. _ „ BENEVOLENT ANS ON. A Charge that He and Other Stockholders Throw Runs. A gentleman who takesadeep interest in athletic sports, remarks the Chicago News, of every kind approached us yesterday with the request that we would inveigh against that fast-and-loose policy which seems to have been adopted by the Chicago Base Ball Club. ‘‘lattended the game between the Chicago and the St. Louis clubs last Monday,’’ said our caller, ‘‘andidon’t know thatlever sawa clearer exhibition of ‘attendance errors’ than was given by our home nine.“ ‘‘What do you mean by ‘attendance er- ror?’ ’’ we asked. ‘*Whenl say ‘attendanceerrors,’’’ answered he, ‘‘I refer to those errors intentionally made by one club in order to give the other cluba chance to score runs, thereby making the general result of the game closer than it other- wise would be. Now, it is accepted as a fact that our Chicago nine can shut the St. Louis team out whenever it pleases, but Chiaago prefers not to do so, for the simple reason that alter seeing St. Louis budly skinned once or twice the public would lose all interest in games between the two clubs. Therefore, to maintain public interest, the Chicagos suffer the St. Louis players to makeascore that is simply and wholiva gift. Last Monday, after keeping the St. Louis boys away from third base for six innings, and when the score stood 9 to 0, the Chicago players sud- denly letdown. Anson began mung, Clark- son began sending men to bases on called bails, and Kelly dropped an easy fly in the outfield and overthrew by eight feet to first base. Not content with this dead-open-and- shut trickery, Pfeffer contributed an inten- tional error by fumbling the ball ata critical moment, and subsequently Flint became so absorbed in conversation with the umpire that one of the St. Louis runners stole a base on him. As soon, however, as the visitors had made enough runs to constitute a good show- ing against the runs already scored by the Chi- — Dan the Chicagos ended the misery in quick order. The whole affair was a clear play for attendance. It you study the Chicago tactics,’’ con- tinued our friend, ‘‘you will discover that these ‘attendance errors,’ as they are called, are made invariably by those four members of the Chicago nine who are also stockholders. Naturally enough, these four gentlemen have an eye to business; they want a crowd in the grand stand and they play to get the crowd there. Of course this is business and it pays them liberally; but is it base ball? And do the patrons of the game go to these match games to see base ball or tosee an exhibition of sharp business practice?’’ Ball Games Yesterday. At Philadelphia—Browns, 4; Athletics, 3.

He Turned Out to Be a Big Surprise to Foxhall Keene. At Cedarhurst, on July 5, says the Sun, Fox- hall Keene had the mount on Mr. J. Steven’s chestnut gelding, Buckshot, aged, in the race for the cup presented by Mr. Thomas Hitch: cock, Jr., for poio ponies. George Work was in the saddle on his 5-year-old chestnut mare, Cedarhurst. Buckshot was weighted with 180 pounds, Cedarhurst carrying 156. The race was a quarter of a mile. Buckshot won, Cedarhurst coming in a head behind the second horse. Mr. Work was dissatisfied with the result, and much talk has since taken place between club men as to the relative merits of the crack polo ponies. This led to the making of a match at half a mile, catch weights, for $1,000 a side, Mr. Keene to ride Buckshot, and Mr. Work to get any one he might choose to ride Cedarhurst. About that time Delong, who rides at sixty- four pounds, beat the favorite, Lancaster, with McLaughlin in the saddle, by a head, on Renick, at l Beach. The lilliputian jockey received an ovation of applause, and at once became a hero in the eyes of the Beachers. Delong was engaged to ride Cedar- hurst in the match yesterday at Sheepshead ay. ‘ ‘fuousanés of dollars were bet on the ponies ateven money. A group of society ladies and gentlemen, club men, and others were present to see the race, among them Leonurd W. Je- rome, President of the Coney Island Jockey Club; Mr. and Mrs. Cowdin, Mr. and Mrs. La Montagne, Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Cheever, Miss Edsall, Miss Lent, Miss Stevens, A. Wright Sanford, George Work and J. R. Keene. Mr. Sanford was appointed judge, and Super- intendent Clarke was chosen starter of the ponies. Foxhall Keene vaulted into the saddle at 134 pounds. He looked everyincharider. When Delong settled his sixty-feur pounds into the saddle he appeared like a fat baby in short white dress. His legs were not long enough apparently toget ahold on thepony. The mare plunged and pranced and cavouorted in vain attempts tounseat her rider. If she was a polo pony she wanted aman in the saddle. Ladies and club men laughed at her antics. Several sports rushed to secure a few more tickets on Buckshot, making him a favorite in the mutuals. But the baby jockey was cool as an oid stager. Within an hour he had won a race at the beach on Brunswick, one of the largest horses in a good-sized field, and he was not the favorite either. It was Delung's first mount on a polo player though. Cedarhurst quieted down when she found out that an artist held the bridle, and at last started quietly on even terms with Buckshot. Foxhall sent his pony bounding out into the light in the first few yards. Thena laugh came from a bevy of ladies in the boxes. The laugh diedawayand men shouted when the midget got the mare down to her work and collared Buckshot after chasing him a furlong. Keene warmed Buckshot, keeping a neck in front of Cedarhurst on the inside. The pair made the lower turn, and, dashing along the stretch over the heavy track in this shape until within fifty yards of the finish, when Cedar- hurst responded to the midget's call, beating Bückshot in by a head in the fast time of 54% seconds for polo ponies with pedigrees un- known. Mutuals paid $10.55 on Cedarhurst. George Work won $8,000 on his little mure. Mr. Cheever and others also won hundreds of dollars. Everybody laughed heartily at the conclusion and all went home ina happy frame of mind. * —— THE CHAMPION STAKES. A Race That Will Bring Out the Cracks on the Turf. From the Mail and Express.

Bicycle Budget. The Connecticut Bicycle Club of Hartford has reconsidered its action to leave the L. A. W. Belcour’s new wheel was built according to his own directions and presents several new features. Action on the life membership amendment to the League's constitution has been post- poned till tall. President Ducker of the A. C. U. has aband- oned his called meeting of the Massachusetts Division, L A. W. The Mayor of Chelsea, Mass., his wife, the City Treasurer and the City Engineer are all active tricyclers. The Boston Club has voted to join the Amer- ican Cyclists Union. The question came up and the vote was a tie. Tre casting vote of the president decided it, Klepstein and Harry Gordon are not yet done laughing at the way they ran away from Morris and Oellien in the half-mile race ona grass track at Normandy, Sunday. The twenty-four-hour tricycle road record was beaten by A. H. Fletcher of Liverpool, England, the other day. He made 2%] miles straightaway, the old record being 231%. Hollingsworth of Indiana, who holds the 24-hour record, isa member of the Indianap- olis club, 25 vears old, weighs 150 pounds, and reminds one strongly of Rowe in form and motion. It is about time that the League of American Wheelmen were finding out whether the Cycle or the Bulletin is the official organ, If Mr. Bassett is an official of the League, it is not clear why his communications regarding the A. C. U. do not appear in the Bulletin. If the chairman of the Racing Board holds his high office simply to advertise his own paper, the League ought to know it. An unusally large attendance is expected at the Cyclists’ Social Union, Saturday evening, at Deilmonico’s. Good weather would make the occasion one of the most enjoyable cycling sociables ever held inthe West. The imvita- tion is extended to all wheelmen, irrespective of club or league affiliations. This gives ev- ery unattached rider an opportunity to be- come acquainted with his cycling brethren and learn what is going on in the Deal wheel- ing world. All a rider needs to do to attend properly, is to get a ticket of E. R. Stettinius, or — wheel agencies, and ride out Saturday night. Where is the Galatea? Bos7Town, July 22.—The English cutter yacht, Galatea, has not yet been sighted. She has been out more than twenty-four days. Ordi- narily she should make the passage from Southampton to Marblehead, or Boston, in twenty-one days. Allowing two days delay on account of fogs and head-winds, she should have been in on Tuesday. There has been no stormy weather on the Atlantic, however, and no fears for the yacht's safety are felt. KNIGHTS TEMPLAR CARDS. KNIGHTS TEMPLAR JEWELS. ‘ KNIGHTS TEMPLAR RINGS.

PROBABLE FATAL INJURIES. Mrs. Mattie McAree, Frightened by Fire, Jumps from a Window. A serious fire originated at 1309 Franklin av- enue last night about 8 o'clock through the explosion of a gasoline lamp. The lamp had been left standing in the hallway, and the stairs were soon in a blaze. During the ex- citement Mrs. Mattie McAree, aged 26, living on the third floor, fearing that she would be burned to death, jumped from a rear window and sustained probably fatal injuries. She was conveyed at once to the City Hospital. The fire spread rapidly, and had not the depart- ment thrown a perfect deluge of water into the burning bu —— & serious con ration would have resulted. The damage done to the building, which is owned by Anthony Boken, was about $2,000, and the loss on household goods was about the same. Henry Zumpelman’s barber-shop, which was next door, was slightly damaged by water, and William Hartman, who occupied the second- floor of the same building, suffered a slight loss from the same cause.

Ample Protection Assured the Dairy In- terests—Imitations of Butter to Be Sold as Such—What the Butter Men of the East Have to Say. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPATCH. NEw YorK, July 22.—The passage of the oleomargarine bill by the Senate has caused much rejoicing among the butter dealers of New York. There is a general feeling that if the Senate had followed the example of the House, and made the tax 5 cents per pound instead of 2, the dairy interests would have been better served. Still the amendment is accepted in good spirit and the hope is ex- pressed that the difference between the House and the Senate in this measure will be easily adjusted. The Post-DISPATCH correspondent interviewed some representative butter deal- ers on the subject yesterday. George W. Martin, of George W. Martin & Bros., 170 Chamber street, who was chairman of the committee sent by the exchange to Washington in the interest of the dairy business, said: ‘‘The butter trade feel that the bill is a good thing and all are glad of its passage. Iam satisfied with the bill just as it stands. The 2-cent tax will do, as the principal object of the bill is the restriction of the sale of oleomargarine to its proper chan- nel. Heretofore it has been SOLD FOR GENUINE BUTTER. This bill says it must be sold for what it is— oleomargurine. The provisions of the bill compel dealers in it to sell it under its own name and as long as it is sold in this way we do not care, as itcan do us no harm, whereas it has done great harm while sold us butter. When I went before the Senate Committee I made the same statements which lam now making to you. I told them great and overwhelming damage had been done the butter export trade by oleomargarine, and that it was doing the dairy interests of the country an almost irrep- arable injury; that the dairy interests would go to the wall unless the oleomargarine decep- tion could be entirely unmasked and the article honestly sold on its merits. 1 ave them an idea of our export trade n New York butter by telling them that the buyers of the United Association of Canada, who annually purchased 20,000,000 pounds of butter in this market, had not purchased any American butter for the past year, because they were . AFRAID OF GETTING OLEOMARGARINDE. They got this scare from a statement made by Phil Armour’s man in Chicago, who said he was selling large quantities of oil to our creameries. The butter product of this coun- try amounts to more than the wheat cropand, in my opinion, so important an industry sbould receive the fullest and best protection from the government it helps to enrich.’’ Clark Balcom, representing Balcom & Co., of Fulton Market, who do a large steamship trade and whose conspicuous slen Genuine Butter Only’’ is a full interpretation of their firm stand on this question, said: ‘‘I am glad there is a possibility that the conglomerate, hotch potch stuff called oleomargarine and butterine is at last being pulled down to its proper level. Itisallnonsense and humbug to say that people can’t tell oleomargarine from genuine butter. Idon’t believe there is man or woman, or a child, either, over6é years of age, who couldn't tell it at once in its natural, unadulterated and un- mixed condition, but here is the fraud—the deception they practice. They mix genuine butter with it, using one-half to three-quar- ters butterand the rest oleomargarine, and putting forward this compound as the genuine article, they EASILY DECEIVE THE PUBLIC. There is not a pound of it sold as oleomarga- rine, because nobody wants oleomargarine. I have never hada single customer come to s and ask for oleomargarine, and although a great deal of oleomargarine has been sold in Fulton market, lam willing to wager that never one single person who bought it knew he was buying oleomargarine. He has always been deceived into buying it for butter. Taking everything into consid- eration, I think this legisiation was much needed. One thing about oleomargarine is that it can deceive people only on the table. If used for cooking. the melting process im- mediately gives it away, so that it cannot compete with dairy butter at any price for this purpose. Mr. Halsey, another butter dealer and an ex- tensive shipper to the South, said: ‘‘I would sooner have had the ö-cent tax, but 2 cents is better than nothing, as it will stop the harm which the dairy interests were suffering from oleomargarine. Already its fraudulent sale as genuine butter has injured our duiry interests to the extent of MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. I see that the strongest opposition to the bill in the Senate came from the Southern States, but I am not surprised, as the South has not the dairy interests at heart, and never had. Missouri is claimed as a Southern State, but a Missouri Congressman,Mr.Hatch, was the champion of the cause in the House. This is plain enough when you are told that there are strong dairy interests in Missouri. There — gone impression throughout the wholesale butter trade that President Cleve- land will be only too ny to save the dairy in- terests by signing this bill. When he was Governor of this State he signed quite as stringent a bill in the interest of dairymen, and I don't see how he can, without being glaringly inconsistent, refuse to do an act 0 ce to a suffering industry. Ifthe bill does not become a law, from one-third to one-half the creameries of the West will be compelled to close their doors, and a large number of ers who are in the creamery business will be sold out at Sheriff's sale, as they can’t make expenses and fight this oleomargarine. While the dil is not as stringent as the dai en wouldlike, still it will be quite effective if it compels oleo- margarine sellers to sell it on an honest busi- ness basis, which is all that we desire, as we are not afraid to meet it on that basis.’’ LEAVE St. Louis 6:25 p. m.
