Mercury Climbing te Undreamed-of Heights— Effect in St. Louis—Scenes at the Morgue A Succession of Bodies—All the Slabs in Use—At the Dispensary—Treatment of Patients—The Hot Wave. ‘ ‘*Kighty-five’’ was the muffled cry that came out of the Signal Service shelter shed this morning at7o’clock. When Observer Linn stepped out in the light and showed the exact figures it was seen thut he had grossly exaggerated. It was only 84.9 degrees. But when the record no hope to be found. The day was sure to be the hottest. yet. that. from morning until night, the.reading at 7 u. m. is morally certain to tell what the day will be. Ifthe reading thenislow, the day will be cool; if hot, the day will be a scorcher. How does it compare with Saturday and Sun- day mornings? was the next question. The daily record, that little canvas-covered, finger-soiled book, wasopened. The observer read: Saturday at 7a. m., 80.8; maximum for the day, 97. Sunday at 7 a. m., 83.1; maximum for the day, 100.“ Each looked atthe other. The meaning was too plain. There wasno getting around it. The mercury, if it didn’t break its pace before night was bound to get several degrees above 100. It there is anything in figures, look out for a broken record,’’ said the weather men, and each one grabbed a fan and sought tue liveliest draft. SO THE MORNING STARTED. By 8 o’clock the arrow on the Custom house dome had swung around frem the south into the west. Sergt. Weber, coming up from the Merchants’ Exchange, paused at the corner of Eighth and Oliye streets, looked upward a few moments, shading his eyes from the glare. A few passers-by who recognized bim stopped and waited. **How is she, Sergeant?“ heat hadn't affected their fine discriminating powers. They had put the arrow inthe fem- inine, because an arrow is feathered. Steady. She isn’t turning much. The wind bas got intw the west for eps to- day. He was right. It nas held there ali day and has been the only thing to make lite en- durable. Where lemonades, sodas and fans have failed, suffocating mortals have found relicf in the breeze. And a breeze it has been. No little spasmodic breath that would but rufie a maiden’s curls, but a good stiff, steady breeze that would make the foam curl around the bows of the boats of those mean traitors who had deserted the city and were sailing on the lakes or yachting along the sea- coast. Ab utl1o’clock a reporter for the Post-D1s- PATCH was sitting in the Signal Office when they asked. The NOTICE: On and after July 1.

An un- usually strong wind was straightening out the revenue flags. The Sergeant skipped overthe sun-baked iron roof tothe far west edge where he could look down on the sweating stream of people on Ninth street. In his hand he had a pair of thermom- eters fastened together with a strong cord running through aring atthe top. They were no ordinary instruments. THE BALLOON THERMOMETERS. They had been tested in Washington for Prof. Hazen's journey in the WorLD and Poat- DISPATCH Dalloon and had by a mistake been left behind when Hazen went back to Wash- menos Hie swung these above his head for two minutes. The glass glistened in the gun- lisht. The heat rose from the burning roof like the breath of asirocco. How much do you guess it is?“ asked the sergeant of the reporter. At least 110.“ It is just exactly 97 deg.’’ Do you mean to tell me that in the sun it ts not over 100. Why in the shade it is over 95, and the sun was blazing on the glass as you swung it. That's it, exactly. The public is all wrong about the sun heat. There isa general idea that itis ten times hotterin the sun. Now to be sure, I'll hold this up tothe sun without whirling it. He did so at the elevation of his shoulder. The bulb at the bottom seemed ready to burst, but the silver column only moved up to 97% and stopped. Ill prove it,’’ saidthe observer. He laid the glass down the roof, which was so hot one couidn’t keep his hand on it. The mercury guickly shotupto120. Then it was heid up to the vun at shoulder height again. Down, down, it slid to 98 and there Stopped. It isthe quarter higher because the glass got heated on the roof. Then TUE SAEKLTER SHED WAS VISITED. and the instruments whirled as they lay in the shade. .When the reporter looked it was reading in the sun. Then other experiments were carried out. On the shady tide of tne big dome, where the sun had not shone since early morning, the reading was 98. The exposure was just as it is on store fronts, against the side of the dome which still retained the heat of the morning sun. Thats why the street readings are so high,’’ observed the Sergeant. On tron in the sun the reading was 105, and on wood 108. The Signal Service maps showed that the — a. m. to-day hadi spread out derfully. St. Louls was no ‘nione, yo at Barnegat on the Atlantic coast, the 80-deg. line ran northwest between Philadeiphia and New York state line, thence to Cleveland and Sandusky, and dinagonaily to St. Louis, coin a le miles west of here. Then circling this city the line ran east to the Ohio River and then south to the Gulf at Pensacola. Chicago was 7, but Oswego, N. I., was nearly 80.

The first heat prostration to-day was Hen Franck, who lives at No. 900 South Seventh street. He was taken to the Dispensary, and recovered rapidly.

PITTSBURG, Pa., July 18.—A good breeze and a slight drop in the temperature made life more endurable to-day, although the death rate was the largest known in years. The mercury at 7 o’clock this morning was 83, and at 1 o’clock this afternoon it was rising, with 94 in tue shade. At the same hour yester- day, it registered 100 deg. Seventeen deaths from the heat were reported tothe Coroner up to noon, and nearly twice as many ersons were progtrated who will recover. Nearly all the factories and. mills temporarily suspended operations during the heat of the day. 8 and Jennis, the two men found dead in their beds at Dolan's tavern, yester- day, who were supposed to have been pol- soned, died from the heat and excessive drinking. At Chicago. CHICAGO, July 18.—The sickle of the sun cut a wide swath in the population of Chicago last week und yesterday. It had its victims in every xrade of society, and left them in every part of the city. The weicome breeze that sprang up last evening saved many lives, but many a sufferer was past all help, and the night and morning added to the death list. Twenty deaths from sunstroke were reported yesterday and as many more here were about one hundred and thirty-five deaths altogether reported up to noon, and only half of the day over. The weather was muggy and the air heavy this morning, but the breeze was still blowing. Thermometers in various parts of the eity ranged between 85 and 90 degrees. At Milwaukee.

Ninth and Market were sixteen dead people in the place, aud they had to be placed all around in the post- mortem room and everywhere else. Crowds surrounded the building all day in a vain hope that they would be rmitted to view the bodies, but only friends and relatives of the deceased were permitted to view their remains. The first sunstroke victim to arrive yesterday was John Turner, who was brought from 12 North Seventh street ata quarter to 1 o’clock in the morning. At 4a. m. John Sullivan came from 1209 North Fifteenth street, and at 9:10 a. m. the body of Ramon Fuchs was brought from 2101 DeKalb street. Ha Monroe's body was brought from 1224 North Thi-cd street at 1:25 2 m., and the remains ot Nick Thies arrived from 1623 Frank- lin avenue at 2:53 P. m. The next body to arrive was that of Joe Boder Walch came in at 7:15 p. m. from Miami an Arkansas streets. At 11:30 p.m. Henry Fischer was brought iu from 1133 North Broadway. The body of John Cronin of 2030 Franklin ave- nue was the first to arrive at the place to-day, 3:40 coming in at 2:30 a. m. g a m. Burg Bucholtz’s body came in from 2112 Franklin avenue, and at 10 a. m. the remains of Henry Manning were brought from the Geyer House, Ninth and Market streets. Twenty-five minutes later the body of James Isaac arrived from 2011 Market street. In order to enable the Coroner’s office to keep up with the rush of business, the bodies in all sunstroke cases are being brought to the Morgue, and Dr. Frazer, his assistant, Tom Hennessy, and Olerk John — 4187 going straight along writing outthe testimony in the inquests. At one time there were as many as four different undertakers' wagons at the place yester- day bringing bodies in and ‘takin them out. In almost all fata cases the victims are drinking men. They as- sume all sorts of hues after death. One man, who arrived yesterday, was a deep greén about the feet; the face of another a glowing’ red, Whilestill others were purple and blue in the face. A man who was brought in this morning has a most perfect violet tint about the face, neck and hands. _ SUNSTROKES. Treatment at the Dispensary—How to Avoid Insolation. The premonitory symptom of overheating, miscalled sunstroke,’’ said Dr. Warren Priest, the City Dispensary physician, this afternoon, as he applied a small rubber bag filled with broken ice to the naked breast of a man re- clining face up on a wire cot, is the fail- ure of the perspiration to show itself. The state of collapse commonly called sunstroke is not dependent upon the direct rays of the sun coming into contact with the body. There are cases of sunstroke in which the patient never sees the light ot the orb of day. These you might have heard of, as men in cellars and miners hundreds of feet below the surface of the earth and excluded from all light except that thrown upon them from a gas jet or from a lamp. Not to be technical, you might say that sunstroke or the over heated condition is caused by the pores of the skin becoming closed up and the failure of the economy to throw off, in the shape of perspiration, its ex- cess of heat. ‘his is followed by the vessels becoming engorged,the brain filled with blood, and dizziness, which finally ends in stupor.

A Terrible Ride Down an Incline—The Fatal Coal-Oil Can—One Woman Burped to Death and Two Other Persons Serioasly Injured—Watching for Dead Bodies— Casulties. . LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 18.—An accident is reported as having occurred near Owen Town- ship, in Indiana, twenty miles from Jefferson- ville, last Saturday, by which three men were killed and another badly injured. A large force had been employed on the fruit farm of Mr. Gus Dean, gathering peaches. The principal orchard is situated on a high bluff over the river, and a heavy car was rigged up on an inclined plane to convey the fruittoa boat below. This car was heavily loaded, and four men took a seat on it to assist in unloading it at the bottom. The car wag started, and when about a quarter of the way down the hill the ropes which held it back broke. The car being free dashed down the hill ata terrific pace, and striking a large bump- eratthe bottom, was overturned and dashed to pieces. One of the men 2 off, and striking on his head, broke his neek, dying almost instantly. The other three men were frightfully crushed, and two have since died, the other being in a dangerous condition. Only meager particulars of the affair have reached this city, and the names of those who were killed have not been learned. There 18 no telegraph station near the place. Used Coal Oil. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 18.—Mrs. Jas. Smith of Four Mile Run was fatally burned and her husband and sister-in-law, Amie Smith, quite seriously injured last evening by the explosion of a canof kerosene. Mrs. Smith attempted to start the fire in the stove with the oil and the flames communicating to the can caused the explosion. The burning liquid was scattered over the two women, set- ting fire to their clothing. Mr. Smith came to their rescue, but before the flames could be extinguished his wife was burned so badl that she will die, and Miss Amie had sustaine painful injuries. Mr. Smith had both arms snd his face badly scorchea in his efforts to Save the’women. This makes the sixth oil-can fatality in this vicinity in forty-eight hours. Watching for Bodies. NEW YorK, July 18.—Although several peo- ple are believed to have been drowned in the upper and lower bay during the storm yester- day, no bodies have been recovered, and no information of — missing people bas been received on Staten Island. The beach is being watched for any bodies that may wash up. Several days frequently elapse after a drown- ing occurs before the body comes ashore.

Archbishop Walsh Endeavoring to Secure a Suspension of Evictions—The Egyptian Muddle—A Ministerial Crisis at Constan- tinople—Trouble Between the French and Newfoundland Fishermen — An Urgent Tory Whip—Gen. Boulanger’s Letter— Foreign News. Dont, July 18.—Mr. Redmond, Nationalist member of Parliament, speaking at Cool- graney, said he deeply respected Mr. Davitt’s services, but regretted his latest speech, which amounted to a charge that was little short of folly against the advice given by the Irish leaders, and a charge of cowardice against the people. The tenants, Mr. Redmond said, ought not to engage in any unequal struggle against the bayonets of their enemies. Mr. Davitt, replying to Mr. Redmond, said he would actin accordance with Mr. Parnell’s advice, but would not be dictatedto by any sub-leader of the Irish people. Mr. Dillon, speaking at Arklow, thanked the people of Coolgraney for their admirable adherence to the plan of campaign ’’ He was unable to refrain from expressing regret at Mr. Davitt’s speech finding fault with the advice of the Dublin executive. He desired to defend Mr. Harrington, whose official position preciuded him from replying personally. He hoped that in future their petty differences woujd be set- tied in the council chamber. SUSPENSION OF EVICTIONS DEMANDED. Archbishop Walsh of Dublin is endeavoring to induce the Government to suspend further evictions in Ireland until the land bill has been passed by Parliament. He suggests that a conference of the subject be held by the leaders of the various parties. — — — — MGR. PERSICO IN IRELAND. An Interesting Sketch of the Papal Envoy to the Emerald Isle. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LonvDoN, July 18.—[Copyright.]—The Times’ correspondent at Rome telegraphs as follows: From a very well-informed source Ihearthat the action of Cardinal Manning, which caused 80 many contradictory reports in reference to Mer. Persico’s mission to Ireland, was as fol- lows: The mission was to have visited Ireland under orders to avoid all relations of a compromising kind with partisans on either side of the Irish dispute, and especially to abstain from identifying itself with Cardinal Manning or Archbishop Walsh. On learning this the Cardinal informed the Vatican that fit came under such conditions it would be boycotted, and perhaps insulted. This may have been the origin of the report that the remonstrances of the Cardinal and Archbishop had caused the tarrying of the en- voy at Paris under the pretext of waiting to receive further instructions.’’ A PLAUSIBLE EXPLANATION. The direct cause has been amystery, which is plausibly explained by the above informe- tion and by the action of Mgr. Persico in taking up his residence with Archbishop Walsh, which action is certainly a strange method of getting impartial views on the Irish difficulty. But the Italian prelate is too able a „person to be permanently misled by any such bias, and before leaving Ireland he will proba- bly find opportunities to hear the other side. Mgr. Persico’s record is a striking filustration ot the marvelous opportunities afforded by the Roman church fortraining men. Mgr. Per- sico, who is to discover for the Pope the truth about Ireland in a six-week’s tour from dio- cese to diocese, has been engaged in the most difficult and delicate missions since he finished his studies in Rome atthe age of 23. A PERFECT ENGLISH SCHOLAR. Saysthe Daily News correspondent: ‘‘He belongs to the order of Capuchins, and is a perfect English scholar. Hehas been in Tar- teary, Thiba and Afghanistan. At Darje Eling he founded and directed a college and was the Roman Catholic chaplain of the British troops. He succeeded in healing the Indo-Portuguese schism in 1853, and obtained considerable con- cessions from the English Government. Dur- ing the Indian mutiny he was made prisoner and confined in the fortress of Agra. He re- turned to Europe and collected large sums to repair the losses of the missions in India. In 1859 he was again sent on a mission to London, connected with Oatholic interests. In 1863 Pius IX. sent him to South Oarolinato pacify the people who were excited by the war of secession. He took part in the Ecumenical council, going afterwards to Malabar to settle some disputes.’’ - — — DR. BULL’S OPTOMETER. An Instrument Designed to Ascertain the Condition of a Person’s Sight. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Paris, July 18.—At the Academy of Medicine yesterday Dr. Javal presented an optometer recently made by Dr. G. J. Bull of New York. The design of the optometer is to euable an oculist to tell instantly what glasses are re- quired by far--sighted and near-sighted per- sons. The figures marked on the graduated scale,at which the subject has to look through a lens or asimple aperture, accordingto the more or less deteriorated condition of his eyes, appear, when the instrument is held as one would hold a sheet of paper, to be a series of irregular elongated figures, but when viewed through the aperture with the optometer held as one would hold a telescope, they re- solve themselves into small dominoes. These Gominoes are arranged in such away that the sum of the dots on the furtherest domino indicates the degree of far or near sightedness, while the number of dominoes distinguished indicates the focusing power of the eve examined. There is another extra-qdinary feature about this instrument. Thefoousing power of the eye diminishes as age advances, the change commending at early childhood. This axiom has been borne in mind and applied to draw- ing up a column of figures along the line of dominoes. As oon as any one tells the num- ber of dominoes they see distinctly, his age is revealed beyond dispute. The laboratory of Sorbonne charged itself with some expensive engraving necessary for perfecting Dr. Bull’s inetrument. a The Egyptian Muddle. SALISBURY FIRM. CONSTANTINOPLE, July 18.—The Sultan, through Herr Von Radowitz, the German Am- bassador, and by a direct messenger, tried to persuade Bir H. Drummond Wolff, the British till 9 o’clock every night.

Traube. GEN. BOULANGER’S LETTER. PARIS, July 18.—M. Lauer, the member of the Chamber of Deputies to whom Gen. Boulanger wrote the letter which caused so much talk the pasttwoorthree days, is the man who went to Berlin at the time M. Schnaebelle was arrested by the German po- lice on the frontier and interested him- self in behalf of the prisoner. Many people are convinced that Gen. Bou- langer knew that the letter would be pub- lished. The Cabinet are divided on the ad- visability of taking official notice of the letter. Gen. Ferron, Minister of War, contends that, as the letter was a private communication, no action against Gen. Boulanger is possible. M. Rouvier, the Prime Minister, adopts the con- trary view, and wishes to call Gen. Boulanger to account for the letter. It is stated that Deputy Laisant received from Gen. Boulanger a similar letter to that published by M. Lauer, but he refused to divulge its contents. PRINCE JEROME’S BOOK.

The French are en- croaching upon fishing-grounds hitherto ex- clusively used by English fishermen. AUSTRALIAN WOOL. OTTAWA, Ontario, July 18.—The Canadian Pacific Railroad officials say that the company has contracted to carry car-loadsof Australian wool from Victoria, British Columbia, to Boston and other points on the Atlantic seaboard. This wool was, until this season, broughtin sall- ing vessels to American ports on the Pacific and shipped over the Northern Pacific Railroad to Boston and other points. CANADA’S FOREIGN TRADE. The Dominion Government will send a com- missioner to Asisfor the purpose of promot- ing trade between Canada and China and Japan. All efforts of the present Dominion Government to extend Oanada’s foreign trade have been utterly barren of results. The foreign trade is still on the decline. Sir Alexander Galt and Sir Charles Tupper have made great efforts in that direc- tion and spent a lot of money over negotiations fora treaty with Spain, put they accomplished nothing. Acommissidner was sent tothe West Indies last winter to report upon the best means of developing trade with those islands. He came home and recom- mended that a subsidy be granted for a line of steamers between Halifax and some of the West Indian ports, but the Government de- clined to adopt his suggestions. It is held that it will be utterly impossible to extend Canada’s foreign trade on a profitable and permanent basis untilthe Dominion obtains the right to negotiate commercial treaties on her own ac count, FROM SCHUYLER COUNTY.

An Hour Devoted by the Howse Committee to the Consideration of the ‘*Compro- mise Bill”—A Hot Dispute Over a Little Item, While the Cutting Up of the Boule- vards Is Consented To—Municipal * tors. The Mayor, Comptroller, and tne City Coun- selor held a consultation on Saturday over an application made by the Cable & Western Railway Company for a permit to lay some track in advance of legislation. The application, which would ordinarily have deen granted without question, was presented to the Mayor. After present- ing it the to Comptroller, who happened in the office, a conference was held at the con- clusion of which Mayor Francis said to the Cable representative: ‘‘These beople are in arrears for taxes for two years. „„es, sald the gentleman. dut they are going to pay up that claim.’’ The city can’t go on promises; however, I’ll consider this.“ A few moments later the Mayor’s Secretary presented the Cable Company’s representative with a written denial of the application. This is the second time the Cable Companny has been given evidence of this purpose on the part of the city officers. When a dill was introduced asking for the right of way to form a loop at the down-town terminal the city embodted in it a provision it inoperative unless the delinquent tax is paid. The city officers named are determined that the Cable Company shall receive no further favors until the conditions of the franchise as the city understand it, are complied with. How Rich Grants Are Made. At noon to-day the Railroad Committee of the House of Delegates met to consider the bill now known as the Forest Park Cable compromise. Among other things this cable proposes to intersect the Lindell avenue boulevard and the Forest Park North and South boulevards and to run into the park. The projectors of the plan pro- ose to build a $4,000 depot in the park. Messrs. Sullivan, Hays and Gartenbach ofthe committee and Messrs. Tredway and Attorney Taylor, representing the company, and Mr. George D. Capen, who ‘‘buzzed’’ Mr. Tredway considerably during the hearing, were present when this — section was reached. Notwithstanding the high thermometrical readings in the committee- room this party of hurdlers jumped the propositions to cutup the two handsome boule- vards and to make a railroad yard of the park and fell wrangling in a bunch over the control of the proposed palatial depot which is to cost $4,000. Mr. Taylor misunder- stood a proposition that was made by one of the committeemen. He thought the sug- gestion wasto give the Park Commissioner control of the depot. He rose from his chair to announce that the company would notac- cepta bill which proposed that they should turn ower a %,000 depot to the city. A delegate took notber view of the question, and aske® if they proposed to hold the building outside of the control of the Commissioner, so thatthe grant would also include the privilege of selling whisky at 2 o’clock in the morning. Mr. Capen appreciated the point and suggésted that the words ‘‘according to the rules and regulations of the park’’ be added. There seemed to be a division ofopinion as to whetherit was a better plan to cut up the boulevards in two places or to put down double tracks leading to the loop in the park—a little arrangement giving the company decided terminal advantages and saving the expense of buying property foraloop or running through less profitabie territory. While this important grant was under consideration Delegates Stone and Sullivan were called away on some pri- vate business. No conclusions were arrived at as faras an outsider could judge. Municipal Matters. Last week the meat luspectors condemned —7 14,000 pounds of bad meat which was found exposed for aale. Figuratively speaking the Dorsett Conduit veto is an elbow intimation to the Bridge & Tunnel Company not toask the earth for noth- ing. Delegate Weisenburger is reported as want- ing to know if the = cable switch was held up in the House Committee on Rail- roads for stuff.’’ This morning the Council Committee on Rail- roads, and several Councilmen were driven over the route of the proposed elevated cable railway from Grand avenue to Forest Park. Delegate Gartenbach’s motto ls: Keep a close mouth.’’ Delegate Nolan says he does not follow this rule in the case of combine meetings, and hints that Seven-Finger Bill is a give-away. The Railroad Committee of the House of Delegates met this morning to consider the Forest Park Cable Railroad bal. This is one of the measures marked for particular atten- tion, as it is advocated by the present Cable Company interests. Betting on the horses is a sure thing com- pared to betting on Delegate John Waters’ vote. The Seventeenth Ward statesman op- ae yt the increased police bill on the streets, ut was an ardent advocate of the appropria- tion on the floor of the House. Mayor Francis has approved of the action of the Board of PublicImprovements cancelling the contract for the piers of the Grand avenue bridge. Only 2] per cent of the work contract- ed for has been done, while 78 per cent ot the time has bassed in which to do the whole amount. Dr. Warren G. Priest, who was appointed to succeed Dr. W. D. Dorsett as chief Dispen- sary physician, took charge yesterday. Dr. Fred Outley, his ffirst assistant, has been —— a two weeks’ leave of absence, Dr. wery taking his place. Dr. Perkins of the City Hospital has been assigned to night duty at the Dispensary. To-day the Mayor approved of the nominations made by Assessor Temple, with the exception of Louis Huber, brother of Conrad Huber of the Twenty-sixth Ward. The appointment was made atthe request of Delegate Huber, who has since become one of the leading spir- its in the combine. The Mayor ig not called upon to give any reasons for his action, but.he evidently intends to give Delegate Huber no recognition. Mayor Francis has again vetoed the Dorsett conduit bill. He says that the compensation offered the city in the bill will amount to about $1,000, while the city in exchange gives up to a company in which citizens of st. Louis seem to be very slightly interested, directly, a franchise which awards the use of ali the streets and alleysin the oity. These consid- erations and the fact that no operative pro- visions in the statutes or ordinances guarantee relief from the unsightiy poles by compellin the tel ph, telephone and electric light companies to place their wires underground, suggested to him the advisability of withhold- ing his approval from tne bill.

Judge Normile Instructs a Policeman on the Duties of His Office. Judge Normile made some remarks in the Criminal Court to-day which virtually amounted toa decision. Clark Thomas was on trial on an indictment charging him with assaulting to kill Policeman Henry Spohne- mann. Thetestimony showed that Thomas was wanted on a charge of stealing a clock and thaton September 15, 1885, Spohnemann met him on astreet corner and attempted to ar- rest him, acitizen having informed him that Thomas had committed this crime some days reviously. The man resisted arrest, and, drawing a knife cut the policeman, which caused the indictment for assault to kill. After the testimony was all heard, the defendant’s attorney had him lead guilty to common assault and take a ne of $100 and costs, on which he will be sent to the Work-house. Judge Normile, after sentencing the man, cailed up Police- man Spohnemann and informed him pve m that whenever any one informed that some one had committed an offense at some previous or two, to have the man take out awarrant before he made any at- tempt to make an arrest, as under the decis- ions of the State Supreme Court he had no authority to arresta manfor apast offense except on a warrant. If e had a warrant there would be a case of resistance against aman who refused to go with him, and he could forcibly take the fei- low, but in a case of this kind he was acting wholly without authority. The 8 said the patrolmen of the force should be instructed on this point to avoid making any mistakes in future. *COURT OF CRIMINAL CORRECTION. time, if only a da Dispositions of Cases Before Judge Noonan To-Day—Crimes and Penalties.

To-morrow the United Grand Commandery, Colored Knights Templars of Missouri, will begin a three days’ conclave at the hall on Washington avenue and Fourth street. The meaning of the word ‘‘united’’ in the’ title, is that several years ago, in November, 1881, the two rival State commanderies adjusted their differ- ences and came together in a harmony which has existed up to the present time. The officers of the commandery are: Right Emi- nent Grand Commander, James Peiham; Right Eminent Deputy Grand Commander, Peter Harris; Eminent Grand Generalissimo, J. F. Thomas; Eminent Grand General, H. H. Hill; Eminent Grand PFrelate, George Harrold; Eminent Grand Senior Warden, Cyrus Brown; Eminent Grand Junior Warden, M. W. Love; Eminent Grand Treas- urer, Wm.

A COLORED KNIGHT EXPLAINS. With all these preparations for an elaborate entertainment, the fact stillremains that the colored Knights are not recognized by the white Knights; in fact the white Masons call the colored men’s claims to Masonry as bogus. W. T. Mumford was trying to extract some consolation out of a fan when he was called upon this morning by a Post- DISPATCH reporter foran explanation of the chasm be- tween the races. Mr. Mumford is a Past Grand Commander, — held office in 1882-8, and is one of the best informed Knights in the city. He sald: The reason we are not 2 lies in that Masonio rinciple which does not permit two Grand Lodges to exercise jurisdiction in the same territory. Back in 1760 the colored men worked along barmoniously with the whites in the three de- grees. Then came the Revolutionary War and after it the States no longer took their lodges. under ing this change were frozen out. vance in pointof numbers, fluence, naturally formed their grand lodges in the various States, before our strength grew reat enough to allow us todo the same. W ben we reached that point of course we had been preceded by the white grand lodges which claim jurisdiction. However we claim to exist legally under rights received years ago fromthe English lodges. Indeed recognized in Europe as Masons. It is only in this country that we are not. THE HAPPY DAY COMING. the E The whites being in ad- wealth and in- Rev. Dr. ohn Vincil Grand Secretary of Missouri, explained, it this way: „Before the Revolutfonary War the colored persons of Boston got —— from England to organize a Masonic lodge. The Grand Lodge of Massa- rotested, not becanse of color, but simply because they claimed soy- ereign right in the State. The protest was heeded and the cbarter revoked, but not for some 2 and in that time the organization spread. After the revocation it kept on — covering New England, thence crossing into the Middle States. But despite. the fact that these colored lodges are so nu- merous we cannot recognize them, because the fountain-head of the organization was 11 legal. It is not race distinction that prevents r but this iliegality of origin. Some of the colored people do, however, try to make capitai out of it as being the drawing of the color line. Why don't the whites t the colored ay the right to become legal Masons?’’ They have never asked it so far as I know. But 1 think the time is coming for legitimate negro Masonry.’’ chusetts at once THE LAKE BLUFF CONVOCATION. The Attendance Not Affected by the Intense Heat—Concluding Session.

Important Decision Affecting the Iron Mountain and Missouri Pacific Companies, Judge Valiant to-day rendered an important decision in the suit of the St. Joseph & St Louis Railroad Company against tue St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern Railwey Company and Missouri Pacific Railroad Compan y. This was a suit to hold the Iron Mountain and the Missouri Pacific liable as assignees of a lease. In 1874, the st. Joseph & St. Louis Railroad Company leased its road to the St. Louis, Kansas City K v. ern Railroad Company for ainety-niue — the latter company cvvenat..ing to Pay rent. make repairs, etc. It operated the roga until November, 1879. when the St. Louis, Kansas Cit & Northern became consolid with another road under the name ot the Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific, and that company continued to hold and operate It until April, 158, when the Wabash, St. uis & Pacitic leased all of its lines, owned leased, or otherwise, to the Iron Mountain Railroad Compuny for ninety-nine years. At that time an arrangement existed between the Iron Mountain and Missouri Pacific for oint operation of the lines and the Missouri acific neld and operated the St. Joseph & St. Louis road, holding it jointly with the Iron Movntain. In April, 186,the St. Joseph & St. Louis caused the original lease of 1874 to be FORFEITED FOR NON-PAYMENT of rentand other breaches of the covenant, and took possession of its road. “The rents called for by the lease were all paid up to March, 1884, but not since, and the suit was brought to recover the rents from March, 184, to April, 1886, and the costs of repairs neg- lected. The theory upon which an assignees of a lease is held liabie to pay rent, etc. is that = | the assignment of a lease a privity of estate is created between the lessor and the assignee. Mere possession of leased premises, however, does not create privity of estate; it isthe right of possession derived from the assignment of the lease that creates tie rivity. Ihe assignment of the lease is the ey to the arch that supports the relation be- tween the lessor and the assignee. It was held in one railroad leaschold case that a railroad company had no right to lease its road to another company nor the latter the right to receive such a lease unless authorized by its charter or the law of the State, and that without that authority the act was ultra vires and void. But the Court was not then passing on the guestion whether the lessee company, which had used the leased road and reaped the profits, could be held liable for the rents accrued. Ifitshould be conceded that the acts of lease and consolidation were ultra —— itis doubtful if the defendant company not . ESTOPPED FROM SAYING 80 now to avoid paying the rent for the property which it bas enjoyed the use ot. Under sec- tions 790 and 7ol, the right, however, to lease and consolidate may be said to be embraced in the general powers of a railroad corporation, It sufficiently appears from the petition that the St. Joe & St. Louis leased its road, reserving certain rents, and that lease was assigned tu the Iron Mountain Company, and those facts create a privity of estate be- tween the St. Joseph & St. Louis and the Iron Mountain Company, which renders the latter liable to perforin the covenants of the lease which ran with the land, and which matured whiie that privity of estate lasted. The de- murrer of the Iron Mountain Railroad Com- pany;is overruled. The petition fell short of averring that the lease was assigned to the Missouri Pacific Company and showing no privity of estate be- tween the St. Joseph & St. Louis and that com- pany, the demurrer oi the Missouri Pacific is sustained. THE GAINESVILLE TRAGEDY. Capture of the Probable Murderer by the Police at Texarkana, Ark. By Telegraph to the Post-Disrarcrr. TEXARKANA, Ark., July 18.—The officers here this morning arrested and now have in juil, a man whom they believe to be the Gainesville, Tex., murderer. His pecullar actions first aroused suspicion and when approached by the officers, he became greatly excited, saying at first he was a detective on the trai! of the Gainesville murderer, and alittle later denies all knowledge of the matter, and said he had never been anything more than a ral road labcrer inthe interior of Arkansas. He has decidedly a criminal appearance and his numerous contradictions and various tales about himself and thorough knowledge of the Gainesville tragedy, although he says he can- not read, coupled with several other circum- stances, lead the officers to a strong belief that they have the right man. Heis about 6 feet tall and has dark hair and a mustache, and gives his name as Charles Chapman. BOODLER M’CABE, His Creditors Trying to Get Hold of His Mortgaged Property.

THE SCENE SHIFTED. « | MANDAMUS GRANTED AGAINST THE POLICE BOARD AND PROSECUTING ATTORNEY. Law Advocates Carry the Fight Into the Circuit Court as a Stepping-Stone to the Supreme Court—Noonan Ignored— The Police Board and Prosecuting Attor- ney Called Upon to Enforce the Law as state Officers—Writ Keturnable on Fri- day. 0 The scene of the Sunday law prosecution was suifted to-day to the Circuit’ Court. At the motion hour in Judge Valliant’s Court, No. 5, J. k. MeKeighan and Henry T. Kent ap- roached the coungel table with two volumin- ous petitions seeking writs of man- damus against the Board of Police Commissioners, Prosecuting: Attorney Clal- porne and Assistant ‘Prosecuting: Attorney Dierkes. After all other motions had ow disposed of Mr. McKeighan addressed t r court in the presence of a large number o the bar manifesting an interest in the pro- ceedings, and read aloud the first of the two petitions, which were in sub- stance as follows: The petitioners nd taxpayers: James H. Wear, Rem ete! — G. Baker. Thos. S. Me- pheeters and E. E. Souther appearing for themselves and others who desire the enforce- ment of the Sunday law in this city in particu- Jar and the laws of the State in general, for its peace, dignity, and welfare. They set forth the powers and duties of the St. Louis Board of Police Commissioners, and state that the Board is at present composed of the Major, David R. Francis, James L. Blair, Edward Wilkerson, Frank ; and Oliver P. Gooding. 8 IN MARCH, 1857 the General Assembly of the State passed an act confirming certain powers to the citizens of St. Louis by a majority vote—authorizing the opening of any establishment for the sale of refreshinents, distilled liquors excepted, on any day in the week. Any person selling distilled liquor on Sunday was to be unished by a fine of $10 to All acts con- Meting with that act were repealed. The St. Louis Common Council in March, 1857, assed an ordinance submitting to a vote of the citi- gens in April, 1658, the question whether the city should grant permission for the openin of establishments for the sale 0 refreshments, distilled liquors on any day in the week. tioners then set forth the result of that elec- tion as follows: Your relators further represent and show to the court that said election was duly held in pursuance to the said call and proclamation, andthatfor the Mayor and otber city oflicers there were cast 18,021 votes, and for and against the sale of refreshments a total vote was cast of 7.085, of which 5,051 votes were cast in favor of the sale of refreshments on the day and in the manner ae stated in the ordinance aforesaid, and 2,00 against the same, whereby, as your relators aver, no authority was conferred by the majority of the voters of said city upon the authorities of said city to grant the permission referred to in said act of 1857. Various revisious of the city ordinanées concerning misdemeanors are next quoted, and the petitioners suy: Your relators furtber represent and show to the court that the revision of the ordinances of said City of St. Louis, made in the year 1871, as found on page 299 of said revision, section 4, expressly repealed, by number said ordinance Fl, passed in 1864, and no other provision was made by ordinance with reference to the sale of fermented or distilled liquors in the (ity of St. Louis, upon the first day of the » week, called Sunday. THE DOWNING LAW. Your relators furtber represent and show that the,General Assembly passed an act March 4, inns, commonly known as the Downing Act, to read as follows: sec. 5456. Any person having a license as a dramshop keeper who shall keep open such dramshop, or shall sell, give away or other- wise dispose of, or suffer the same to be done, upon or about bis premises, any intoxicating lL. guors, in any quantity, on the Orst day of the week, commonly called Sunday, or upon the day of any eenerail election in this State, shall, upon conviction thereof, be punished by fine of not less than 90 nor more than $200, shall jorfeit such license and shall not again be nilowed to obtain a license to keep a dramshop for the term of two years next thereafter. section S of said act of 1883 is as follows: All acts and parts of acts inconsistent with th.s act as far as inconsistent are hereby re- penied.’’ Your relators further represent and show that on, to-wit, March 28, 1887 there was passed by the Genera Assembly an act entitled as follows: ‘An uct to repeal an act entitled an act coufirming certain powers to the citizens of St. Louis (ounty,’’ approved March 4, 1857, section 1 of which said act of 1687 reads as follows: hat an act entitled an act confirming cer- tain powers to the citizens of St. Louis (ounty,’’ approved March 4, 1887, be and the une is hereby repealed.’’ Approved March 28, 1887. INTENTIONAL VIOLATION. Your relators further represent and show that. on,to-wit,Jaly 8, IS, ata meeting ofthe Board of lice Colum issioners, there was passed by suid Board a weneral order directing the Chief of Police, „no is the general executive officer of said board of Police Commissioners, not to interfere with the sale of beer and wine on Sunday by dramshop keepers in the said city ors. Louls, which safd order, your relator avers, is in contravention and violation of the Guns of sald Commissioners, as hereinbefore settorth, and in contravention and violation of the laws of this State, and thatthereby the said Board of Police Commissioners instead of pre- tnt ug crime and arresting offenders, and instead of enforcing the laws with reference tothe observance of Sunday in this State, are intentionally suffering the sale of beer and Wine, the same being fermented and intoxi- eating liquors, to be carried on in said city, on the Urst day of the week, commonly called “unday, in violation of the laws of this State und contrary to the peace and dignity of said Mate, and thereby intentionally reiuse and neglect to perform their duties as hereinbe- fore set forth, which duties are purely minis- terial and not judicial in their character. Your relators further represent and show thatonthe loth day of Ju y, 1887, being the firstday of the week, commonly called Sun- day, and immediately following said order of ‘iid Board, licensed dramshop keepers in ‘ald City. of St. Louis, did, at their various places of business, expose for sale and did sell dr and wine, which are intoxicating and ter- mented liquors, which acts in violation of the s ot this State were carried on and done and performed in the presence and in dies of duly appointed and acting policemen of suid City of St. Louls, who were and are under the contro] and direction of said defendants: und sald policemen in consequence of said order of said defendants did not arrest and apprehend the said violators of said laws of this State, as aforesaid, and declined and re- lused to do so in consequence of said order.

AGAINST THE PROSECUTING ATTORNEY, The other petition is directed against J. R. Claiborne and Bernard Dierkes, the Prosecu- ting Attorney and his assistant. It quotes the various provisions of the city oft: dinances and goes on to ony. — the Chief of Police on the July caused the arrest of James Sweeney, Frank Mahon and Wm. Kessler for selling beer on Sunday, which was a misdemeanor by the law of the State; that the Obief gave in- formation to the Prosecuting Attorney and his assistant, but that they refused to prosecute. The petitioners therefore pray fora writ of mandamus to be directed against those officers ot the State, and that they be required to appear in Court and show cause why they re- fuse to perform their duty. THE WRITS GRANTED. Judge Valliant, aiter hearing both petitions, bat alternative writs would issue return- able in Court next Friday morning at 10 o'clock. After the petition was filed a representative of the Post- DISPATCH saw J. K. M'’KEIGHAN, one of the attorneys representing the peti- tioners, who said: „The brewers and the saloon men wanted the matter pocketed here in Judge Noonan’s court, but we are determined to try the validity of the laws upon which Judge Noonan based his discharge of Joseph Scbnaider, and for that reason we filed our application for a mandamus against the Board. We think the Circuit Court will decide in our favor, but if it should be otherwise we will appeal -to the Supreme Court, and I resume the Board of Police Commissioners do the same in case the suit goes against them. Further tnan this I cannot say at present. The reporter next saw LEVERETT BELL, City Counselor. as to the line of the Board’s defense. That gentleman was not aware that the writ had been issued until so informed by the reporter, and conse- quently was not aware of what the petition askedfor. If the mandamus was to compel the Board to enforce the laws against the sell- ing of wine and beer, he would set up asa Gotense the same state of facts and the same laws as those which constituted the basis of Judge Noonan’s decision. Ifthe order, the Board would appeal the case to the Supreme Court, so as to get a “final judicial construction ofthe laws, set out by that Court. What would be the effect of an adverse decision to the Board by the Circuit Court?’’ „Well, the Circuit Court being a superior court to that of the Court of Criminal Correc- tion its orders will indirectly over- rule the decision of Judge Noonan in the Schnaider case, and the Board will be com- elled to make arrests for all violations of the aw, notwithstanding that decision.“ PROSECUTING-ATTORNEY CLAIBORNE was served shortly before 1 o’clock this after- noon with a copy of the writ of mandamus di- rected against himself and Assistant Prosecut- ing-Attorney Dierkes, which was taken out im the Circuit Court this mora- ing. Mr. Dierkes is in St. Paul with his family and service could not, of course, be obtained on him. Mr. Ciatborne was asked what he in- tended doing in the premises and replied: Jwill merely make a return, stating that I have refused to issue any warrants in these cases of selling beer on Sunday because a test case was tried before Judge Noonan and the law held to be invalid. As Judge Noonan has so construed the law, of course it was our duty to issue no more warrants. As Mr. Dierkes, who is really the party whose business it is to issue the warrants, is away, I can make no return for him, but only for myself. „„What will be the result of the matter; do you think the Sunday law people will succeed in getting an appeal to the State Supreme Court in this way?“ „No, Ithink the Court will dismiss the writ on my statement of the case. In fact, I don’t see what else he can do.“ „Can they take an appeal if the Court dis- misses the writ?’’ ‘ ‘No. * Ihen how can they get an appeal?“ „Well, the Court would have to make the writ peremptory by ordering us to go ahead and ssue informations whenever applied for in these cases. Then we could take an appeel. but not the other parties of course. If the Court dismisses the writ that ends the mat- ter.’’ Circuit-Attorney Clover, when informed of the action the Sunday law people had taken, said: 1 don’t think they are entitled to the writ. It is discretionary with Mr. Ciaiborne and Mr. Dierkes whether they will issue infor- motions. They are elected for the express urpose of decidingin what cases to Issue in- ormations, and 1 don’t think tne Circuit Court has any power to compel them to isene the warrants. I ͤ don't think the Cirenit Court will even hear the writ, they will throw it out. The only way to reach Claiborne and Dierkes would be by impeachment. An appeal cannot be secured in this manner in the Sunday cases. C. Orrick Bishop, Mr. Clover’s assistant; said: ‘*The whole proceeding is one of the most absurd things I ever heard of. Thev have no right to mandamus those officials. If they wanted to mandamus any- body they should have mandamused the po- lice board. the court willeven consentto hear the writ. They can never getthe law to the Supreme Court in that manner.“ A CASE OF COLLTSION. Maj. J. C. McGinnis, the representative of the brewers’ interests in the Sunday- law fight, said this afternoon, while perusing the mandamus etitions against the Police Board and the Prosecut- ing Attorney that it was clearly a case of col- jusion, for the attorneys representing the Board would be en the sume side as the attor- neys for the petitioning citizens and no court could recognize such a condit.on of affairs.

Thousands Greet Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland at Every Stepping Place. UTica, N. T., July 18.—The Presidential party reached Utica from Forestport on Gen. Z. G. Priest’s private coach at 9:45 o’clock this morning. Secretary Fairchild and wife accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland. Super- intendent Priest took charge of the train on the New York Central Railroad asfar as Canas- tota. No. 475, with Engineer Jacobs in charge, drew the party out of this station at 9:56 a. m. As the connecting tratn for Cazenovia will not leave Canastota until 11:30, a special train will be run at a moderate rate of speed, slowing up at Oriskany and Rome, stopping possibly at Oneida. Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland look quite well. The night and this morning have been most exhausting. A heavy rain fell at intervals, but this added to dis- comfort rather than cooled the atmosphere. At 10:30 o’clock the Presidential party passed through Rome. It was not generally known at what time they would arrive there, conse- uently there were not over 10 people at the — These flocked to the track and watched the special train as she made her way slowly along. President Cleveland was on the rear platform of the single car, which the engine drew, in full view of the people. As the car reached the depot he doffed his hat and bowed graciously twice to the admiring crowd. Thecar ran very slowly but did not stop. Mrs. Cleveland and Secretary Fairchild were standing just within the door and smiled in appreciation of remarks that were made by ladies who were trying to get a full lance at her fair face. They were only vis- le for a short time before the train passed out of sight, bearing ite illustrious passengers on their westward journeyto the home of the President's youth. The party passed through Oneida at 10:48 o’clock. Long be ore the train arrived large crewds coliected in front of the Allen House, awaitmg bis arrival. The Oneida Battery fired two minute guns as the Presidential ogy left Utica, which resulted in filling all the available ground in front of the hotel. The President's car drew in just as the 10:37 o’ clock train was passingout. The crowd surged around the rear end of the car and greeted the President with lond cheers as heand his wife appearedon the back plat- form. ENTHUSIASTIC HAND-SHAKING. Then followed five minutes of most enthus!- astic hand-shaking. Everyone crowded and itched to reach the outstretched hand of the resident. Mr. Cleveland had a pleasant smile and a hearty grasp for all within reach, while Mrs. Cieveland stood in the doorway and smiled and nodded pleas- antly to the ladies. Just efore the train started, an old lady, who was trying vainly to get to the Presiaent, was noticed by him. Let that old lady come up, he said to several men who were standing in her way. The old lady’sface fiushed with pleasure at this kindness aad she shook his hand heartily. The President and his party were again en- thusiasticaliy cheered as the car moved on. . GREETED BY THOUSANDS. SrracusE, N. V., July 18.—The special train withthe Presidential party arrived at Canas- totaatllo’clock. Two thousand people had gathered and were awaiting the distin- guished party at the depot. This and other buiidings were profusely dec- orated with bunting. Whben the train came to a standstill, Postmaster Barlow introdoced Mr. Cleveland to the people, and an informal reception took place. Five hundred people shook hands with the President, Mrs. Cleve- land standing in the doorway of the car, acknowledging salutations. At 11:15 the train left for Cazenovia. CONSUMERS MUST SUFFER. Strike of New York Icemen—The Cokers— Female Trades Upions. Ry Telegraph to the Post-DisratTcu. | New YORK, July 18.—From action taken yesterday by the Ice-men’s Union, it is likely that the customers of at least two ice com- panies will have trouble to-day in getting one prime necessity of July At any rate, they will be obliged to order it of some other com- pany than that with which they have been trading. A strike of drivers, hei bargemen at work for the Central pany and the Merchants’ Company, was or- dered ata mecting held yesterday. The ob- ject of the strike is to obtain from the com- panies advances on the rate of pay now received. The striking men will possibly number over 250. ce Com- — — Female Trades Union. Bosrox, Mass., July 18.—A movement which has been quietly projected in labor circles, in- dependently of the Knights of Labor, is that for the organization of women and girls into trades unions,similar to the existing organiza- tions of trades among men that have not affil- iated withthe Knights. A meeting to take definite steps inthe matter will be held about the middle of next month. The promoters ex- pect to make Bostonthe pioneer ot a move- — which they hope to spread into other cities. The Cokers. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 18.—The coke workers have called a convention at Everson to-mor- row to consider the advisability of causing a total suspension of work in the regions by calling upon those working advance to come out until strike is settled. They think that a general-shut down would soon compel the operators who want coke to bring a strong pressure to bear onthe others. An attempt will probably ulso be made to stop the im- portation of new men by sending a committee to New York to explain the situation to anv whom the agents may propose to send in. There Is no change in the situation to-day. — ——— ä ſ— BOOMS AND BUSINESS, President Cable Chats About the Present Favorable Prospects. NEW YORK, July 18.—The Times says: Ptesi- dent K. R. Cable of the Rock Island Rallroad was atthe Windsor Hotel yesterday. He does not recall any season, he says, when there have been brighter prospects than just at present all over the Northwest. Along the lines of his company crops are not only promising to be unusually large, but there are indications of a quality better than the average. There is no threat so far from weather or any of the pests that sometimes kill off the crops. The season, too, is earlier than usual. he farmers.are in high spirits, tecling sure of exceptional rewards. it is noticed by President Cable that all the dreary talk about hurt to the West from reul estate booms has nothing whatever to sup- hort it. Ihe a in real estate as attracted settlers instead of frignt- ening them away. In towns tnat have boomed tue most the most general business is being done. When people talk about wild Western real estate booms they usually go upon premises that are faulty. <A big boom seidom signifies more—if so much— than the price of real estate is advancing to its intrinsic value, a value given by the new de- mands of coming settlers. Other railro managers have expressed much the same views as are given by Mr. Cable of the crop conditions this season, speaking from observation along the lines of ail tne leading granger roads.

The latest noveltyin silver is a tiny powder box of repousse work, lined with gold, and destined to be carried in the ocket during the warm summer months by the women whose noses are apt to get shiny. or whose chins assume a roseate hue that increases in depth in proportion to the gradual rise of the mercury. The box of course contains a miniture powder puff of the kind that one sees in a French doll’s outfit, and the daintiest mirror imaginable is inserted in fhe lid, so that madam or mademoiselle may gaze upon her features as she applies her chalk or bismuth, and There are b goodly number, I imagine—who consider the use of face powder highly objection- able. But, on the other hand, there is no doubt that this adjunct to the toilet is a luxury, so far as numbers of fashionable | dames are concerned, especially after the hot weather sets in. Nothing or few things | are uglier to look upon than a shiny, red, | pereptring face,particularly when the face elongs to a pretty woman. Therefore the pocke owder boxes ought to prove very welcome. The price is some- what exorbitant, it is true-—815 for the plainest pattern.

Some of This Year’s Styles—Boston Heads are Big, but Getting Smaller. From the Boston Herald. The latest novelty for summer wear is a hat made of the fiber of a gourd grown in the Southern States. It is very light and airy, and is manufactured in this clty. There are a great number of large heads in Boston,“ remarked a hat sales- man Saturday, but observations from year to year show that as a rule heads are getting smaller here.“ What is the average size!“ In Boston it is 7% at present, while in Chicago it is only 6%. Heads are rounder in Chicago than at the Hub. Smaller sizes are also worn in New York. Why, I bave known a dealer in New York to put a number 8K hat in the window with a sign that it would be given to any person with a head large enough to fit it. We wouldn’t dare to make such an offer in Boston, for we would have to give away too many hats. We have an order now to make ans hat for a customer.“ How large a one did you ever con- struct?’ . We had an order for a 9% hat last year, which represents a head 30 inches in circumference. The ordinary No. 7 size is 22% inches around the head. There are eight sizes in straw Hats for men, ranging from 6% to 7%, and in dress hats there are seven additional sizes.“ There is an impression that this is an ‘off year’ for straw hats. What do your sales show?“ »The trade has been very fair, and is rapidly on the increase. The large variet of Derby hats put upon the market this year somewhat interfered with the early usiness, but not materially. There is a good trade now with people from the South and West, who are passing through the citv to Northern summer resorts. As a rule, men put off 1 bey straw hats as late as possible, for they do not like to wearthem, but afew more warm days will hurry them up.” What style seems to be the rage this year, if any?’’ A good many of the English Dunstable flat-brim hats are sold. At first glance one might think the brim would soon get outof shape, but it is made double to keep it stiff. There is always a demand for Mackinaw straws, and perhaps a larger number of these is sold than any other Kind.“ When a prospective customer comes in do you try to influence him in his choice!“ Mes. When a man enters the store we size him up at a glance, and generally kuow better than he does what will be be- coming and suitable to him. If heisa good judge h:mseif of course we do not oppose his selection. Regular customers | generally place themselves in our hands ‘with the remark ‘What do I want?’ ana we usually suit them.” Do you notice a difference in the heads of persons of various nationalities?” „es, for instance, French heads are smail and round, while those of English- men are larger.“ “You do not buy much of your straw goods in New England, do you! „A very small portion, indeed. The straw trade is nearly ali supplied now by Western makers, or by New York an Baltimore manufacturers.“ A DEMOCRATIC ORGAN, Graphic Description of a Genuine and Brillé iant Bourbon Nose, From the Rourbon County News. After the barbecue broke up at Cynthi- ana Thursday and the Blackburn Club of Lexington and alarge uumber of other passengers were waiting at the depot for the train, Col. Adam Renaker, the big flag Democrat, the ee Demo- crat, got after Col. Soule Smith to make a speech, and grabbed him by the arm and literally dragged him up him on the latform where the Colonel delivered imself of about the following in sub- stance, so far as we were enabled to get it down: ‘‘PELLOW-CITIZENS—Do you question Adam Revaker’s Democracy? k at that nose! That nose has cost him not less than $20,000, and which he still maintains ata tremendous outlay of lucre. Ah, gentlemen, a nose like thatis better than pages of record. It speaks of Demogratio councils and Democratic victories. Itisa guiding light—a mentor and a consola- tion. When, at Indianapolis, the heavy rain was falling from leaden skies and all seemed dark and desolate, just when Hope was trying her wings before her flight, that — old nose—the prop- erty of Adam Renaker—shone in, full- orbed and radiant upon me, bidding Hope. remain, filling — heart with courage and soul with zeal, which soothed and sus- tained me until Cleveland was elected. That nose is as a Democratic watch-fire, kept burning brightly.to illuminate the darkest hour and warm the coldest day. Roses may bud. bloom and blow a redder hue than Hebe’s lips; the lovely color of the deep sea-shell may vie with the rich colors of the sunset’s glow; but Adam Renaker’s nose stands without comparison—unrivaled. In the turmoil of the civil strife; inthe quiet days of the after time; here in old Harrison, where iece and plenty make lifea m sweet; n the councils of the solons of Kentucky, that nose—that influential nose—has been found. May it continue to be present for years to come. It is Democratic through and through. It has been dip in Dem- ocratic nectar from sea to sea.” Innocuous Pastime. From the New York WORLD.

The owner of a paper lay dying in his lair, says the Boston Globe, and the dew of death had gathered on his browso calm and fair; buta 28 knelt beside him as his life lood ebbed away, and asked the dying writer if he had a word to say. The doomed man murmured soft as he grabbed the printer’s flst: Well, at last the struggle’s over, and never will be missed; take a message and a token to that city man of mine, that all his wornout chestnuts he had better put in brine. There’s his joke about the weather, which he’s used these —— years, and the gag about the fellow who is always hunting beers, and the item he’s so fond of on the man who peddles books, and the chestnut based on people who go fishing at the brooks; just to save the paper’s credit and cast no slurs on mine, I would ask him as a favor, just to ut such gagsin brine. And the lie he’s ond of telling of the street cars andthe tracks, and the ancient joke about the man who steps upon some tacks, and the one about some dandy who will never pay for clothes, and the one on women—its weary, heaver knows! Oh, Iknow I'll slumber happy in my grave beneath the vine, if the man who does the city work will put these jokes in brine. Tell the man who tends to business not to weep wher I am dead, but to buy himselfa club and hit the first man on the head who should be — well in brine. Have that r guy and fresh reporter I engaged the other day put a stop to saying ‘selah,’ also ‘We have come to stay; and if he should say ‘ye local’ you must trample him in is gore, for you know I’d neyer allow it in the happy days of yore. And the man who comes to tell you how to run the paper well should be greeted when he enters with a pewter chestnut bell; and you’ll print the paper S be the weather full of storms, and the foreman must be careful, when he’s making up the forms, that the beauty of the paper may through all the ages shine, and not be like its neighbors, only fit to put in brine.’’ The dying writer faltered, as these simple words e spoke, and the printer knew directly that he was about to croak. So he propped him up as gentiy as a mother would her child, but the writer’s soul had wandered to the land of undefiled. And the printer sobbed a little, as he gave one last caress, and he muttered: ‘*I must leave him, for it’s time to go to press. Very few could beat him writing, for his writings were divine, and we never had to, place them in a bucketful of brine. A Millionaire Who Watched Pennies. From the New York Tribune. Cyrus H. McCormick, who distinguished himself by his reaping inventions and ac- cumulated great wealth in the manufac- ture of reapers and mowers, was exceed- ingly generous with his wealth in many directions. He has been known togive $50,000 or $100,000 atatime to churches and other institutions, but he was exceed ingly close with his pennies. An in- cident of one of his visits to New York illustrates this. He went down to the Pennsylvania depot to see some friends off for the West. He had rooms at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. The hotel coach had brought down a number of guests who were going on the same train. It was a rainy day and Mr. McCormick wanted to go back tothe hotel. He said as much to the driver of the coach, but declared that he thought he should onl pay half price for the ride up to the hotel, asthe coach came down with other pas- sengers. On refusal of the driver to en- tertain any such proposition Mr. McCor- mick got quite angry,rolled up his trous- ers and went back to the hotel in the slush. Explorer Stanley’s Twenty-Three Mothers, From the South Wales Pulletia. © — H. M. Stanley, theexplorer, gives Wales as wide a birth as he possibly can. It is alleged that a good many years ago, when he was only eighteen inches long, he was found lying about loose in a Welsh vil- lage with only a paper bag round him, and the local Bumble took bimto a work- house, where he grew up under culties. There were no particular points about him in those days, and he squalied just like any other common baby. For all practical pur ‘his name might as well have been Jinks. Since he has be- come famous, however, snuffy old Welsh women, with names rang ng from Jones to Griffiths, have claim him as their son, and he has grown tired of the amusement. Wu.

BLvuE SunDaY ‘has vanished into the ob- sourity of the past, but blue Monday is back again in its old place. Sr. Louris had yesterday all the privi- leces of nineteenth century civilization —wine, beer, hard cider, base ball and theaters—yet the inhabitants were not un- qualifiedly happy. Too much of the hot wave was thrown in. 1 . Srxty deaths from sunstroke in Chi- cago between Saturday morning and 11 p. m. on Sunday. That the same tempera- ture was far less fatal in St. Louis was due to the breeziness which always attends high temperatures in this vicinity. EvEN the horses are going mad in Chi- cago from the effects of the heat, and one man has died there from the bite ofa mad horse. The editorial wheel horses of the Republican party have been rabid for a month past, both in Chicago and Cincin- nati. THe Police Board has thrown up the sponge on the Sunday law so far as the saloons are concerned, but clings to the ordinance prohibiting street-hawkers from vending their wares. The parrot can boast that it had this tail feather left when the monkey got through with him. 1 THE long-continued and increasing heat only makes more imperative the demand for help of the Children’s Aid Society. The affording of fresh air recreation in the country and careful nursing to the suffering littleonesisa mission of mercy which should appeal irresistibly toevery one. This is a work the St. Louis people should not neglect. — «| es Ir is fair to assume in the absence of any proof to the contrary that when a Con- cord philosopher spoke of ‘‘a veritable reality, not ideal, but existing in com- ‘*plexes made known to us by sense and ‘‘not by analyzing the conceptions in in- **dividual consciousness’’ he merely meant to say ina Oonoord way that itvis infernally hot and every one knows it. 2 SPEAKING of the troubles in which the H’s are involved at Cincinnati a contem- porary refers to the distressful situation of HarPER, Hopkins and Horrer. Their trials, however, are but trifies compared with the great tribulations of Editor Hat- STEAD, who has laid his head in Fury’s lap and is just now seeingin the South. **more devils than vast hell can hold.’’ Tux love of the German people for their aged Emperor is a never-ending subject of the newspaper correspondents at Ber- lin. Yet the telegraph announces that in the journey of the Emperor from Mayence to Darmstadt a special train was sent ahead of the Imperial train to catch all the bombs supposed to be intended for His Majesty, and that theroute was lined with police and gen d' armes. In vetoing the underground conduit bill Mayor FRANCIS urges the propriety of sell- ing franchiges to the highest bidder. But he is talking to men whose view of that question, if we are to infer it from the Council vote on the bridge and tunnel bill, is that franchises covering five miles of city streets and worth millions to the grantee, should not only be given away, butshould not be hampered by even the most just and proper restrictions. Tae Ancient and Honorable Artillery of Boston have been privately received by the Princeof Wales, and later were pre- sented at his levee. This, a cablegram informs us, is considered equivalent to a presentation to the Queen.” That is to say, their rebel disabiliti@ are removed now and they may be admitted to the highest class of society in Boston here- after. Even Cyrus Fretp could not refuse to take wine with one of them now. — ͤ—— e — F— Tne recent decision of Acting-Secretary MuLpROw with regard to homestead en- tries in which the- principle was affirmed that actual residence showing an honest intention to take up the land to secure a home is necessary to perfecting a claim is an excellent one. The right of entering public lands is created for the purpose of affording bona fide settlers an opportunity to secure homes, and it is an unwarranta- ble abuse of the privilege to allow it to be used for speculative purposes. It is a priv- ilege which only constant vigilance@an preserve inviolate for the people. THE PLEA FOR BRIBBRS. In sentencing JacoOB SHARPE, Judge Barrett referred to the profit on the franchise he obtained by bribery as sheer larceny, and said he could have been indicted for that as well as for brib- ery. Of the prisoner’s plea for mercy Judge BARRETT said: With over $1,000, - 4000 in his pocket he clamors for mercy ‘‘without offering to pay back a penny of the money stolen, so that, should he die ein prison, his family has a vast fortune to „fall back upon.” Wr hope to hear more of this sort of talk from the Bench, and that it may eventually silence the rotten plea that the JacoB SHARPES are entitled to pity as the product of ignorant and corrupt Legislat- ive bodies. The rich rascal who makes millions by bribing men to betray public trusts and defraud the people is too often regarded and spoken of as a worthy pro- moter of public enterprises, who only yields innocently to a deplorable necessity when he obtains a valuable franchise too cheaply by corrupting the trustees of the public interest. | It takes two to make a corrupt bargain and both parties to such ¢ bargain are willful criminals, and should be punished as such and consigned to at least equal in- famy. Instead of being the victim of a seducer, the bribe-giver is himself the seducer and deserves the exemplary pun- ishment due to one who not only willfully commits a crime himself, but hires others to render him a criminal service. He should be punished, not only as responsi- ble for hisown crime, but as equally re- sponsible for the crimes he, by unlawful means, induced others to commit. — — — — A GOOD CONSPIRACY. Those who sympathize with Liberal En- glish opinion and in America, despite the foolish assertions of Prof. TYNDALL to the contrary, they comprise nearly the whole population, can view the conspiracy of CHURCHILL and CHAMBERLAIN to force themselves into the present ministry or be the means of its fall with calm satis- faction. The ministry represents the inert mass of all that is unprogressive and narrow in Great Britain, sup- ported by a few ambitious, unscrupulous and disgruntled politicians. It is an in- harmonious and unholy combination, representing no stable and great prin- ciple, and offering absolutely nothing ex- cept makeshifts to retain power. It is an obstruction to progress and a bar to the ultimate destiny of the British people. When, therefore, two of the men who have been with the Government only for the purpose of gaining their own selfish ends attempt to rule or destroy it, the re- sult cannot fail to inure to the benefit of the nation. The result in either case must be the same. This means the triumph and ascendancy of all that is best and all that works toward freedom and justice in English politics. It is represented to-day by GLADSTONE and the Liberal party, with home rule for Ireland as the first step in the march to greater things. BLAINE AND SHERMAN. The Blaine managers are playing a shrewd game on the friends of other as- pirants. They are playing fora Blaine- Allison delegation from Iowa,a Blaine- Lincoln delegation from Illinois, a Blaine- Harrison delegation from Indiana, a Sherman-Blaine delegation from Ohio, and either Blaine-Sherman or Sherman- Blaine delegations from all the other States. In other words, they are mak- ing the most of the prevailing opinion that BLAINE will control the nomination in any event, and may prefer naming the ticket to heading it himself; and they are working the skirmishers so that he will certainly have his choice. SHERMAN and his friends promised their substantial concurrence in this scheme when Har- STEAD went to Chicago to meet BLAINE on the latter’s return from the Indian Terri- tory. They know that SHERMAN cannot beat BLAINE in a hand-to-hand contest, and they have every reason to hope that if BLAINE should conclude not to take the nomination himself he will be guided by family relationship,the Cameron influence and the New York and bank influence in giving it to SHERMAN as the next strongest man in the convention, consol- ing ALLISON, LINCOLN and others with the second place and with promises of cabinet positions or first-class foreign missions. There may beatussle here aud there to adjust the preponderance as between BLAINE and SHERMAN in the composition of State delegations, but these contentions will be kept within bounds. No very close inspection of current movements is re- quired to discover the fact that BLarine and SHERMAN came to a mutually satis- factory understanding before the former went to Europe. , _ It would be interesting and useful to know how mauy of the so-called cases of sunstroke with which the columns of the newspapers are filled, are caused directly or indirectly by intemperance in food and drink. Ninety per cent would probably not miss the mark very far. Moderation in all things, exercise, food, drink and „ pastime, robs excessive heat of half its terrors, and if practiced by all persons would counteract much of its evil effects. — 1 —— ll * AN automatic fire alarm so arranged as to sound when the temperature of the room reaches 135 degrees went off with a bang yesterday in a manufacturing estab- lishment, and brought the Fire Depart- ment to the scene. Only theabsence of this alarm bell attachment kept the average St. Louisan fromserving as a walking fire alarm station yesterday. Workingmen and the Tarif. From the New York WORLD. At a meeting of the Protective Tariff League in this city on Tuesday night the speaker de- clared that ‘‘20 per cent reduction in the tar- ‘iff meant 20 per cent reduction in the wages of the workingmen,’’ and the report says the assertion was greeted with ‘‘applause.’’ Workingmen who use their brains as well as their hands would never applaud such ridiculous clap-trap as this. They know that wages have always been higher in this coun- try than in the Old World, alike under low tariffs and high tariffs, as they would be with no tariff. They know also that the wages in the non-protected industries here are rela- tively higher than in the protected industries, compared with the wages abroad. And they know that in free-trade Kugland wages are higher than in any protectionist country of Europe. If these unthinking applauders believed what they claqued, they must hold a Repub- lican President and two Republican Secreta- ries of the Treasury, a Republican and Protec- tionist Tariff Commission and a Republican and Protectionist Congress guilty of an at- tempt to reduce the wages of workingmen 20 per cent. For all of these recommended, urged and promised a 20 per cent reduction of the tariff in 1883. Through trickery and chi- canery they really reduced it less than $ per cent, but they promised to do just what the hired defenders of war taxes and combined monopolists now protest should not be done. The value of applause depends not upon its noise, but upon the intelligence and honesty that inspire it. Unnecessary war taxes are a greater burden to workingmen than to any- body else. More About Brawler Tuttle. From the Philadelphia Times. Brawler Tuttle, who has by persistent climb- ing and crawling folsted himself upon the Grand Army of Iowa, as its Commander, and who wasthe first to protest against decent respect to the President because he had vetoed the dependent pension bill, has a pension record that is in entire accord with his brawl- ing efforts to strip the Grand Army of its well- earned honor and public respect. While in the army and for twelve years after the war, Tuttle was a brawling Democrat and persistent place-seeker. He was nominated by the Democrats for Governor, the Legisla- ture and other offices, but with such unsatis- factory success that he changed his political base in 1876, and turned upa brawling Re- publican, and be has since then been just as intolerant and as boisterous and as senseless as a Republican as he had been when a Democrat. Tuttle could not see any immediate prospect for office, but he at once scented the flesh-pots of the Pension Bureau, and he discovered then for the first time that his health had been seriously impaired while in the army. Under the arrears of pensions act he swooped down on the Pension Department in 1878 for a pen- sion with arrears from 1864. It required him fourteen years to discover that he was dis- abled in the war, and that he had been dis- abled all the time, but he caught on bravely and scooped in his arrears for his fourteen years of ignorance of his disability. It is just such pensioners who have brought the only stain that now dims the lustre of the honored veterans of the war,and it is just such brawlers who are now gravely threaten- ing the unity and self-respect of the Grand Army of the Republic. Let the brawlers go. Halstead, M. From the New York Times. . ‘*Halstead, M,’’ is still giving his views as to how this war should be carried on.’’ In fact, ‘‘this war’’ is Halstead’s chief joy, and so long as he lives and has his health there will be notruce. But Halstead, M., is not always lucky. The unrepentant rebels will persist in going about their business, building railroads and cotton mills, and developing the material resources of the Tate Confederacy in shameless disregard of the warlike wishes and needs of Halstead, M. To a trafficker in sectional hate nothing could be more disgusting than the indecent fondness for the plow and the loom shown by the rebels, who, according to Halstead, should be perpetually in the saddle. But in other things good luck is not Halstead’s portion. He recently denied with partisan emphasis that more Union veterans were em- ployed in the Federal service under this Ad- ministration than under any previous Admin- istration. The returns are not all in, but it is shown in our Washington dispatches that in the Department of the Interior 884 Union veterans have places against 770 under Presi- dent Arthur. To be sure, this is only one de- partment out of many? But the showing it makes is extremely significant, since it is at present under the control of a ‘‘Rebel Briga- dier.’’ These figures are bad for Halstead, M., but the friends of the Administration will thank him for causing their publication, since they expose the falsity and the purely partisan purpose of the assertion that the present Ad- ministration is hostile to Union veterans. Investigating an Eclipse. From the Springfieid Republican. The total eclipse of the sun on August 18 will last 342 minutes, and ifthe present arrange- ments are carried out, the eclentific world will know more about solar phenomena than it does now. The shadow of the moon first strikes the earth at Berlin, and passing to the eastitwillrun across Russla and Siberia to the sea of Japan and Japan iteelf. Fortunately for scientific observers the Russian overland telegraph line follows the eclipse over most of its course. It will take about two hours for the shadow to pass from Russia to Japan and Prof.Todd of Amherst College, who has charge of the American eclipse expedition to Japan sent out by the National Academy of Sciences, has suggested that the telegraph can be utilized during these two hours. If a dis- covery is made by astronomers in Russia the news can be telegraphed east and verifications can be made. Russian scientists are organiz- ing expeditions, the goverr ment co-operating with them. Several eminent English astrono- mers are already at Moscow preparing for the event, and telescopes are being forwarded trom Germany, Italy, France and other coun- tries into Russian territory. Royalty’s Toes. From the Boston Herald. The King of Saxony, who was at Lord Salis- bury’s Foreign Office party, remarked thet never before in his life had his toes been trod- den upon. No wonder the new sensation was considered worthy of remark. Asa rule, the toes of kings are well protected. The divinity which hedges ina king always makes a point of building its hedge outside the king’s toes. But in these latter days said divinity is not so have suffered in parts more vital than their five yards of carpet by showing up a family of _ thirteen children, eleven of them under 21 toes. Some have had their heads cut off. Others have learned to use their legs at a rate inconsistent with majestic fepose. On the whole, we do not beHeve that kings’ toes will ever be so safe again as they have been. Kapiolani Insulted in England. From Vanity Fair. The Queen of Hawali undoubtedly intended to pay our Queen and our nation a great national compliment by coming to be present atthe jubilee, and we should be obliged to her accordingly; but, undoubtedly, also, the court officials find Her Majesty somewhat of a white elephant—if I may be pardoned such a misstatement of color—on their hands. For instance, at Buckingham Palace the King of Saxony was blandly informed by a court official that he was requested to take the Queen of Hawaliin to supper. The devil Jam!“ brusquely replied His Majesty; I'll see everybody damned first before I take a black woman into supper!’’ The King was accordingly assigned to the Queen of the Bel- gians, and the Duke of Edinburgh had to sac- rifice himself on the altar of patriotism. Products of Oll Wells. From tne Chicago News. Statistics show that 53,000 wells have been drilled in Pennsylvania and New York since the discovery of petroleum, at acost of $200,- 000,000. These wells have produced 310, 000, 000 barrels of oil, which were sold at the wells for $500 ,000,000. This represented a profit to the producer of $300,000,000. The amount of oil exported is placed at 6,231,102,923 gallons. In the pool in Wushington County alone $3,200,000 has been expended in machinery and drilling. Independent of the oil business there is about $50,000,000 invested in natural gas plants in Pennsylvania. An Idyl of Kepublican Simplicity. From the Philadelpbia Times. It is reported that when the train containing the President and Mrs. Cleveland arrived at Holland Patent yesterday afternoon no car- riage was in attendance to convey them to The Weeds, Miss Cleveland’s residence, So the President, instead of Waiting, pi¢ked up a bundle, said Come on, and the con- jugal pair started at a slow walk up the village street to their destination. The President deserves credit for this Jeffersonian proceed- ing, especially as he carried the bundle. Hoist by Their Own Petard. From the Pittsburg Commercial Gazette. The irony of fate is very forcibly manifested in the case of those coke operators who, having imported hordes of ignorant and de- graded Hungarians to put an end to strikes in the coke region, now find these very Huns the chief obstacle to a resumption of work after a prolonged and stubborn struggle for increased wages.

By Telegraph to the Posr-Disrarck. NEW YorK, July 18.—The WoORED gays: In a letter just published Mr, Randall renews his suggestion that the surplus be stopped by abolishing the internal revenue taxes on whisky and tobacco. These are ‘war taxes,’ he says. But are they more war taxes than is 50 per cent of the existing tariff? The average duty in 1861 was 18 per cent. This was in- creased to 86 per cent by the tariff act of 1862, distinctively asa war measure and ‘to make proper reparation’ to the manufacturers, as Mr. Morrill said in introducing the bill, for the internal revenue taxes imposed on them and long ago repealed.’’ THE TRIBUNE. The Tribune says: ‘‘Third parties alwa have one r obstacle to overcome the pub- lic distrust of their sincerity. If it comes to be suspected that they exist only for the pur- pose of fraudulently aiding other of the great parties, their chance to grow as independent organizations is liable to vanish utterly. But leaders of such parties are constantly tempted to make open or secret alliances in order to gain the prestige of local success, or the elec- tion of local officers, or secret supplies of campaign funds. The temptation inclines them to deceive themselves with the notion that they can make a bargain and reap its fruits without exciting public suspicion. But in almost every case they find the public sense keener than they had imagined, and disgrace follows exposure and tie possibilities and hopes of the organization disappear.’’ THE TIMES. The Times says: ‘‘We have already pub- lished evidence, in the form of statements made by promtnent veteran soldiers in several States and cities, that the attitude and wild appeals and declarations of the Tuttles and a large and which influential portion of the Grand — is unwilling that the organization shal be used 1 ——— pu t ton. agents, whose patriotism grows out of their oses or shall become the tool e unscrupulous claim agents at Washing- We havealso shown how these claim pocket-books, have striven in the journals by advertise their business to excite to the President, which ilds, THE SUN.

THE PEOPLE’S FORUM, Round Trips on the Cable. To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: A morning paper notices the popularity of the rule adopted by the Cable Company in issuing round trip tickets by which parties can make the entire circuit of the Cable road for two fares, no matter from what point the passenger starts. The idea originated with Mrs. Virginia L. Minor, and was suggested to Mr. Treadway upon his assuming charge of He has departed from Mrs. Minor’s idea in two respects—first, in limiting the time, for which no good reason can be per- ceived; and secondly, in limiting the trip to the cable part of the road, instead of extending it to the King’s highway, as should be done. A single fare will give a ride trom Sixth and Lo- cust to the King’s highway. Why should not the round trip system cover the same distance and return? hen the idea was first men- tioned to Mr. Treadway he thought it would be too troubleeome and confusing.

The Statement of an English Editor—Seve,, Criticism of American Women Relishes by Englishwomen—A New Way to Boom Princes i, London—Some Interesting Fact Popu- larity of Colored People in London. Special Correspondence of the Posr-Disraren. LONDON, July 5.—Some of the society paper make a great feature of attacks on the Ameri. can element in London society. There are two or three of the society papers which never miss an opportunity of saying unkind and se. vere things about American ladies in London They are never weary of representing them as crazy after royalty, court favor and eager in striving to make acquaintance wit) the ti. tled people. One of the oftenest repeated stories is that American women come in great crowds to be presented at court, and that it requires the united efforts of the Lord Cham. berlain and the United States Minister to re- Strain this mob. I met the editor of one of the society papers theother day, and! asked him where he got all his wonderful facts about American women. His reply isa strange con- fession: Tou would not suppose,“ said he „that I am a great admirer of Americas women. Ithink they are the most agreeable and attractive class of ladies in the world. I go almost entirely with Americans in London. I would not sit down and talk with an English. woman except undercompulsion. English. women are too dull and commonplace. 1 preter the society of American women. Next to them in vivacity and agreeablenessI rank the French and the Irish ladies. But why are you always criticizing them 80 severely in your paper?’’ JEALOUS OF AMERICAN WOMEN. . **Oh,’’ was his reply, the American women do not read my paper. It is gotten up for En- glishwomen. I discovered some time ago that Englishwomen are very jealous of the prominence given to American ladies in Lon. don society, so I began this running fire on the fair invaders of the most sacred precincts of London society, and the result is an enormous increase in my circulation. Every dull, heavy-minded Engiishwoman belſeves that it is the presence of these American women in society which prevents her from receiving her due share of attention, and con- sequently she reads with great pleasure these attacks on her successful rivals. The circula- tion of my paper has nearly doubled since I have adopted this innocent ‘fad’ of poking fun at and criticizing American women in London.’’ THE INDIAN PRINCES. The Indian Princes remain still in London. They are attached to every public ceremony, conspicuous show figures. A prominent American said, the other day, that the scenes of the royal festivities during the last twoor three weeks, carried his mind back for sev- era] hundred years to the time when royalty paraded the streets with its most conspicuous captives displayed asa living evidence of the skill and valor of the royal conquerors, These Indian Princes are subjugated vassals of the British Government. They are paid every consideration, but still they have lost their great power, and 9 question how well satisfied these proud Orientals are with their subordinate position. Their countenances are as im- passive and as cold as those of the North American Indian. 2 have taken part in the pubiic ceremonies of the day and show no s rise, emotion, or pleasure. They are stolid, indifferent, resplendent in their Oriental dress, adorned with all the jewels of the heroes of the Arabian Nights’’ tales. They rarely talk among themselves when in public. They are critical and observant, but very unresponsive to every advance made to them. SECLUDED PRINCESSES. The two royal Princesses from India who be- lone to this group, appear only op the occasion oi the most stately ceremonials. They do not attend at any public places where the Princes o seeking amusement. I saw yesterday the wo Princesses seated just in front of the Queen at the ceremony of the —— of the corner.stone of the Jubilee Institute. The Maharani of Kuch-Bebav is slight in figure, yellow-brown complexion, straight, flashing. biack eyes, full red lips, plement when parted, disclosed the most dazzing white teeth. She wore about ber crinkled mane ot haira filmy white veil which twisted twice about her head, round her dusky hair, falling in soft waves upon her dark, lusterless black siik dress. Near her was the Kanwarani Har- nam-Singh. She looked more like «a pure negress; she had that thick lip and pale pupils and the yellow-hued eyeballs of the mulatto. The officer attached to her hus- band’s staff was a pure negro. He was just such aboy as might be found in any barber- shop in Washington. His head was covered with short, lightly twisted wool, through whicha narrow parting had been shaved. He hada good, straight figure;and was buttoned up closely to the throat in # dark-blue uniform, heavily embroidered rent fout skintight white clear, with regular features, breeches and high patent-jeather boots.

POPULARITY OF COLORED PEOPLE. — Colored people are apparently very. popuiar in London. There does not seem to be any prejudice against their color. There are not many colored peopie inLondon. The few that I have seen, from time to time, are invariably in the company of white ple and asso- ciating with them upon a footing of perfect equality. I saw the other day, Regent street, a negro girl, b coal leaning on the arm ot 8 fashionably well-dressed Englishmen, who seemed rfectiy charmed and contented with his duexy companion. Ila the same way have seen white women, respectable in their appearance and dress, walking in pub- lic, leaning on the arms of negroes. Freder- ick Douglass, when he was here, said there did not seem tobe any prejudice in England against the negro on account of color. T. O. CRAWFORD.

A General Order Issued From Headquarters —Large Deficiency in Funds for Mileage Cruisers—Postponement of the Opening of Bids—A Chance for Ship- Builders. By Telegraph to the PosT-DIspaTCcH. WASHINGTON, D. O., July 18.—The army ig than last for want of funds for transportation and mileage purposes. Upon recommenda- tion of Quartermaster-General Holabird, a general order has been issued from the head- quarters of the army, in which it is stated that the Quartermaster’s department will not hereafter furnish transportation in kind to officers traveling under orders. The law re- quires that transportation ‘shall be fur- nished by the Quartermaster’s department, if practicable, but according to Gen. Holabird, whose recommendation prompted the recent order, it will not be practiced this year in any case for the want of funds. Con- gress, while it requires the Quartermaster’s department to furnish transportation, made no extra appropriation for the purpose, and as a large amount of the regular transportation fund has already been set aside to carry out the important changes in stations of troops this summer there is little money available to pay the trayeling expenses of officers. A LARGE DEFICIENCY. This condition of affairs necessitates the pay- ment of both mileage and transportation by the Pay department in all cases, except where travel is performed in stages and over land grantroads. The Pay department appropria- tion for this purpose forthe currant fiscal year is only $85,000, or $45,000 less than the appro- priation for last year. It is, therefore, diffi- cult to see how a very large deficiency in the army mileage account is to be avoided during the current fiscal year, unless Congress, early next winter, should addto the appropriation for transportation the amount cut off from the mileage fund for thé year. At the close of the past fiscal year there was a deficiency of over $3,000 on account of mileage. This defi- ciency was unavoidable, even with an appro- priation of $180,000, when transportation was almost exclusively furnished by the Quarter- master’s department, and for two months be- fore the close of the year travel was altogether suspended. The $85,000 for this year will not last many months, if last year’s experience can be considered asa guide, if transportation and mileage are both tg be drawn from it. TRIAL OF THE CHICAGO. It is stated at the Navy Department that the preparations for the trial of the Chicago are progressing very slowly. The Boston is nearly ready for her trial, and it is thought that with- in a few weeks she will be put through the six-hours’ speed test. Capt. Ramsey, who commands her, reports his cabin to be the hottest place on the vessel, and is endeavor- ing to devise some scheme by which the tem- perature may be reduced., On the Ist of August proposals for the construction of the Newark, the two nineteen-knot vessels and the two gunboats for the new Navy are advertised to be opened. It seems im- possible at this time to avoid a postponement of the date for opening the bids, at least of those on the nineteen-knot cruisers. The lines of these vesssls are those of the Newark and were traced from her plans. The engines were to have been similar to those of the Bal- timore, now being constructed at Cramp & Son’sship-yard. When Chief Engineer Mel- ville submitted the tracings of the Baltimore machinery to Secretary Whitney, it was thought that improvements could be made on the engines for the nineteen-knot ships, which would make their machinery lighter andat the same time more powerful than that of the Baltimore. Chief-Engineer Mel- ville and his assistants at Cramp & Son's ship- yards have been engaged in carrying out the instructions of the Secretary for several weeks past, but find it impossibie to complete their work before the dates fixed for the opening of the bids. A postponement seems unavoidable. The Interest of the ship- builders in these two vessels has been revived by the reported change in their machinery. They had held aloof because, with the ma- chinery of the vessels similar to that of the Baltimore, the Cramps would have the advan- tage in bidding and be virtually beyond com- petition. They now seea glinmer of hope, and there is prospect of a lively competition for the construction of the vessels. A Card. During the heated term the Cable road will sell excursion tickets good from any point on ite cable line to the eastern or western term- jnus, thence to the opposite terminus and back to the starting point, for 100, except be- tween the hours of 7 to 9 a. m. and 5 to 7 p. m. on week days. These tickets good all day on Sunday. This enables pleasure riders and those having children in charge to ride from any point on the line over the entire road and back to the starting point, on the same car, fortwofares. Passengers must ask conductors for round-trip tickets at 10c. HEAT AND ALCOHOL. Comparison of Arrests Yesterday With Previous Hot Sundays. The danger of using intoxicating beverages during this period of sunstrokes does not ap- pear to have bad much effect on the festive drunkard. He still remains unterrified. Yes- terday’s arrest of drunks did not show much of afalling off from those of last Sunday, while the arrests for disturbing the peace were 88 than on last Sunday. As a large majority of these cases grow out of drunks, it is safe to say that fully as many drunken peo- ple were arrested 9 as last Sunday. There was a total of seventy-three arrests made by the police yesterday against seventy-seven last Sunday and eighty-eight for the corresponding Sunday of last year. There were twelve people arrested yesterday for being drunk on the street, sixteen arrested last Sunday for this offense and twenty the corresponding Sunday of last year. Yesterday there were thirty-one arrests for disturbin the peace, compared with twenty-four las Sunday and thirty the corresponding Sunday oflast year. The combined arrests for being drunk and disturbing the peace were forty- three yesterday, forty last Sunday and fifty the corresponding Sunday of last year. Last Sunday there were eleven youths arrestad for bathing in the river and in ponds, yesterday there were nine arrested for the same offense. POTEL PERSONALS. W. E. Truehart, Charleston, S.

NATURAL GAS, The Wells Being Drilled Near Fdwardsville Show No Satisfactory Signs. The St. Louis Natural Gas and Ol Company, which was organized about the beginning of the year, has apparantly been making but little progress in the search for natural gas in the neighborhood of Edwardsville, III. In reality it has been push- ing prospects as fast as the circumstances would permit. The successful discovery of gas depends upon 80 many extraneous circumstances, that are not within the coguizance of the rospector, such, for instance, as water, cav- ng, etc., that he must necessarily be very eau- tious and do his work very thoroughly so as to guard against total defeat from such causes. A striking instance of the uncertainties and difficulties of drilling was exemplified in the driving of the first well by the company which it was compelled to aban- don at A 700 feet on eccount of striking the side of a granite boulder which sloped diagonally across the line of the well, and through which it was impossible to pass. About the Ist of February the company started its second well, some nfteen feet from the first, both of which are located on what is known as.the Gaertner farm, about three miles north of Edwardsville. At the present date the drill has reached a depth of 1,500 feet, passing through four dif- ferent veins of coal at the distances of 200, 250, 300 and 350 feet respectively. The veins creased in thickness from two to six feet. So far the indications of large gas deposits have not been encouraging—such as would justify its use forcommercial purposes; but traces have been met with all along the line of the drill. All the natural gas and oll deposits which have yet been discovered west of Central Ohio have been found to exist in large quantities only in what is known as Trenton limestone, which differed from other limestones in its porosity and the preponderance of its animai deposits. It is not expected the drilis will find this stone nearer than 1,600 feetfrom the surface and it is probable that they may be compelled to 92 as low as 2,000 feet. When they reach that depth, unless the gas is found then, the company will abandon the search as it is useless to go below the Trenton lime rock. While the reports of the various scientific experts are very. encouraging, the officers of the company are not basing many hopes on the ultimate success of the enterprise. The operations of manufacturing establishments in Pitts- burg and other Eastern cities, by the use of natural and fuel gasesfor heating purposes, naturally called the attention of our large manufacturers to the advant- ages of ite use, and for that reason determined to test the gas wells around Edwardviiie and if possible utilize their prod- ucts for manufacturing urpeses here. Should the company fail in its efforts to get the natural as it will undoubtedly erect large gas worksin East St. Louts for the manufacture of fuel das, to be conveyed to the city through mains laid un- der the river and distributed throughout the city for fuel. This, itis said, can be done at a cost to the consumer, in large quantities, not exceeding 7 cents per 1,v00 cubic feet. FUNERAL OF CHARLES F. MEYER. Obsequies of a Distinguished Citizen—Sketch of the Deceased. The many friends of the late Charles F. Meyer assembled at the residence, No. 1 Nich- olson place, yesterday morning, to pay the last respectsto the dead. The pall-bearers were: M. J. Lippman, A. Nedderhut, Ig. Kappner, J. J. Cantwell, E. J. Hilger, Leo- pold Methudy, J. C. Kraft and Herman Bohn. The services were conducted by Rev. J. F. Jorrfas of the Independent Evangelical Church. The casket over which the pastor said the few words of farewell and admonition was nearly hidden from view by the floral remembrances. The cortege was very large, over one hundred carriages being in @he line which pursued its hot and dusty way to Bellefontaine Cemetery, where under the whispering trees the dead was laid to rest. Mr. Meyer was the happy possessor of a singularly robust and healthy constitution, but for the last two years his health gave way. His wife, who had nursed him tenderly — bis last illness, and family, four sons an three daughters, were present at the last moment. Chas. F. Meyer came to St. Lonisin 1842 and remained here nearly half a century. For twenty-five vears he belonged to the Board of School Directors, taking his piace among its most intellectual members. The Germania Club owes its foundation to him, and he oc- cupied the President’s chair for many years. In business he started as a wholesale dealer in eroceries under the name of Meyer & Meister, but on. dissolution of this firm he commenced a commission business at 418 N. Second street under the name of Charles F. Meyer & Uo. His straightforwara, honorable and amiabie character was admired and respected by every one. Mr. Meyer was a member of the Missouri Legislature during the war, when it is said that body met armed with shotguns to defend itself. NORTH Sr. LOUIS. Ered of the City.

The Devotees of the Weed Take Less of Their Favorite Luxury. From the Philadelphia Evening News. No, thanks, it’s too hot to smoke to- W * he tobacco dealers suffer from this re- mark more than anybody else. When tae thermometer is bumping its head against the top figures, and men aretrying for the best way to keep cool, fewer cigars are sold than in the pleasanter days of spring and fall. The men who care have the tip of their nose roasted over the lighted end of a cigar while their bodies are being parboiled in the heat of a July sun are few compared with the number of habitual smokers. There is,of course, a pretty fair Pe ng of smok- ers who are very fond of a fragrant weed who would not be seen on the street with a — og in their mouths, but many of those who enjoyacigar at any and all other times will during these hot days refuse to smoke because of the excessive heat. An observant statistician stationed him- self on the corner of Tenth and Chestnut streets on a recent afternoon when the mercury was doing great feats in lofty climbing up among the nineties and took account of the number of smokers among the passers-by. ) From 2:30 to 3:30 he stood and counted and in that time 2,893 men and boys pass him. Of this number a low estimate would place 2.000 among the smoking class, yet but 204 of them were smoking. The idea that the deadly cigarette and the seductive pipe were driving the cigar out of the market was shown to be a mistaken one. Of the 204 smokers who passed Tenth and Chestnut streets in that single hour 182 were smoking ci- gars. These cigars were o al shades and complexions, judg- ing from the trail of odor ony eee behind them. The fragrance of the Henry Clay, in the mouth of a stylishly dressed man of good circumstances, was frequently mingled with the malodorous fumes of a ‘‘two-for’”’ stinkadora in the mouth of the colored dude. Of the 182 cigar smokers two were enjoying a dry smoke, one ona brand new never-lighted cigar, the other on a dirty, ragged, unbitten stump. Both the dry smokers were in an awful hurry, and looked as if they did not know whether their cigars were lighted or not. The cigarette was seen in the mouths of just twenty smokers, and, strange to say, nearly all of the cigarette flends were full grown and looked otherwise like men of sense. There were but four boys, who would appear to be under 17 years of age, who had lighted cigarettes in their mouths. During the hour but two pipes passed the corner. One of these was a briar pipe and was sucked by a real Englishman—not the imitation article, so often seen behind a pipe on Chestnut street—and the other was one of those every-day ‘‘T. D.’’ clay pipes. Both pipe-smokers were youn men and both respectably dressed. Tha the smokers prefer the north side is due tobably to the fact that the south side s the favorite walk of the ladies, and no intelligent man with a spark of cousid- eration in him will go along the street trailing behind him a train of tobacco emoke, which is obuoxious to two-thirds of the female promenaders. The cigar- ette consumers, however, are an = tion to this rule, as fifieen or twenty victims to the habit puffed the fumes of the cigarette into the faces of the ladies on the south side. The north side of Chestnut street was used by 111 smokers and eighty-eight walk- ed on the south side, four rode in hacks and one occupied the inside seat of a han- som. During the sixty minutes the statisti- cian stood there the Reserve officer at the } corner changed his stand four times and took one drink of ice water. ; Five people asked the statistician what he was doing and he was once invited to visit a neighboring beery. ‘ aoe statistician refused one invitation to rink. So much for the hot weather smokers of Philadelphia. ! LIVING IN FLATS. The Dissatisfaction General Among Ten- " gants in the City of Churches. From the Brooklyn Eagle. 9 I suppose that we have ten thousand families who pay an average rent of $1,000 a year for their flats. My real estate ac- uaintance has made it a point to inquire rom this class of tenants their views up- on the apartment question and 0 finds that the proportion of malcon- tents is overwhelming. Already our uptown neighborhood, where the Louis, proceed to sell at public vendue to the pighact small houses at about $1,200 a year are to W be found, are overrun with house hunt aud on every pleasant Sunday the neigh- borhood west of the parx is full of them. According to his estimate there Will be such a rush for these small houses next April that the supply will not begin to equal the demand, and hundreds of fami- lies will look to Brooklyn for relief.

They accept all this as the established order of things without shame or regret, and simply go on calmly and consistently —— *. beliey. ing what their fathers and teachers be. lieved and did before them, and what they will expect their sons to do some day in the future. To put their case paradox. ically: If a man believes that it’s right to do wrong, then it’s wrong for the man to do right. Tocome now toa lighter part of my subject, here is a recipe fora Paris stu. dent: A high hat which costs about 2, andis sha » Be proportion. A _ beard, but not like the beards we have at home, It must be out very Short at the sides, — em witha machine, and pointed at he chin. The hair is done in one of three ways, butrarely with any part; 1. Cut very short and brushed straight Brushed 8 on end, a la porcupine; 3, Allowed to grow very long and thrown back ala Beethoven. These long-haired fellows are simply disgusting. They as- sume the halo of an intellect which ther have not got. You can generally tell a student, too, by the black leather bag which he invariably carries for paper. books, etc. For writing they all have little square inkstands, which possess most marvelous powers of upsetting, and an ordinary pen. A atylo- graph, rice 12 or 15 francs, would e considered an indication of fabu- lous wealth. The most striking character- istic, however, of a genuine Paris student, particularly one of the medical persua- sion, is his free and easy manners. Ha frequently finds, towards 2 or 3 o’clock in the morning, that his brain will not work any longer unless he goes out in tho street and howls vigorously to tho immense edification of the neighhor- ing sleepers. Then you will often observe him singing down the Boule- vard Saint-Michel in the evening, with a female companion on either arm and in- dulging in what might be called, by a slight disregard of the truth, a species of singing. Again you may seethe young gentleman of studious propensities on top of a billiard table in one of the bras- series, with a cue in one hand and a plate of what they call choucroyte in the other, haranguing a crowd of miscellaneous friends upon some important question of the moment. Yes, on the whole, you are apt to recog- nize the student by the delightful sans gene which he displays whenever he ap- — in public. In this connection, hough, you are apt to make a most seri- ous mistake. You think to yourself, ‘*Well, these joking, drinking, jovial, foolish young Frenchmen can’t amount to much at their books. They are not seri- ous enough, they waste too much time at cafes and brasseries, they keep too late hours, eto.“ Wait a mement, my friend. Paris students are not to be judged too hastily. Gointo the lecture- rooms and the laboratories, Watch these same harum-scarum fellows at the dis- secting table or in the great libraries. Talk tothem. Find out who they are, etc., and the first thing you know you will discover that these young fools,’’ as you thought them the other night when you watched them gambling in the Cafe de la Source at one o’clock in the morning, know enough about medicine or chemistry or something else to make your head swim. You see they play very hard when they play, and perhaps it's the same when they work. They laugh at the English students here as being always serious,“ for the excellent reason that they have not enough esprit to be anything else. SPEARING WOLVES, Description of an Exciting and Curious Hunt iu India. From the Pall Mall Gazette. It is not often, I think, says the corre- spondent of an Indian paper, that one hears of wolves being ridden down and speared, so that some of your readers in- terested in shikar may like tohear of that feat being accomplished near Wudhwan. For some weeks past wolves have been seen in the neighborhood; in fact, we had on two occasions ridden them, and found that had we had spears it would not have been impossible to get them. A remarkable kubber hav- ing been brought in by the shikarees on the 28th, we started out at 6a. m. on the 29th, 8 of four gentlemen and a lady. e rode first ton tank where the wolves had been seen the day before, but there being no signs of them, we moved across.the country in the Seina direction. About 7:30 a. m. we turned homeward somewhat disgusted at having seen no wolves, but still hoping that we would at least come across one of our friends. And we wefte not disappointed, for very shortly we caught sight of one of them in a cot ton-tield close toa flock of goats, from which he would nodoubt have takens meal had he not seen us. Atsight of the cavalcade bearing down upon bim he went off at railway speed, getting a clea! start of 400 yards. There wasa ‘‘hoorodsh’ from the party and off we went, my ol friend icawber on La-de-da # first starting off in grap pursuit, followed by an Australia andan Arab. Atabout the second mil Micawber began to nurse, the riding de ing left to the other two. The wolf w# first turned by the Australian young Re venge, the: Arab Brazil coming to tit front speedily.

Ferguson, aged 12, of LaGrange, III., who has been confinedin a ‘‘Christian Home’’ at Humboldt Park for some time, was found on the street yesterday with iron shackles on his feet.He tells the following story: There were at the ‘‘home’’ five other boys be- sides himself. They were fed on pota- toes and water, each boy receiv- ing a certain allowance three times a day, provided that he bad not been unruly. Robert said he stood the treatment a few days, and then escaped and tradged home. His father at once sent him back. On his ar- rival the Rev. Arnold, whoisincharge of the place, chained him in an 3 room, and ut him on half rations. He was kept there our days and was then released on promising good behavior. That night he once more started for La Grange, but was caught and again chained in the room. This time he was kept in the shackies ten days. Yesterday, while Arnold was at church, Robert, with the assistance of the other boys, escaped to the street where he was found. Just as the boy finished telling his story Arnold walked into the station to claim the boy. He admitted that a part ot the boy’s story was true, but said that he only acted in kindness.

RICHMOND, Va., July 18.—The barge Lizzie Wallace arrived at the Richmond and Danville dock on Friday with 200 tons of old iron con- signed to the Old Dominion Iron and Nail Works. This iron is what may be called the remains of the Confederate gun-boat Vir- ginia, formerly the steamship Merrimac, which encountered the Monitor in Hamp- ton Roads during the late war, causing one of the most memorable naval engagements of modern times. The Monitor was disabled and hauled off and the Merrimac returned to- wards Noriolk, but was never in active service afterwards, She was afterwards named the Virginia. Thearmor-plate was laid aside at the Gosport Navy Yard in Portsmouth, after she was blown up. by the Confederates and re- mained there until a day or two ago, when all of it was placed on the Wallace to be brought to Richmond. It was sold recently as scrap- iron to aNorthern gentleman, who subse- guently sold it to the Old Dominion Iron and Nail Works. It will be taken to Beile Isle and converted into nails. Much of the armor- plate shows signs of having passed througha severe caunnonading in the numerous engage- ments, and has a number of small pieces suit- able to be preserved as relics of the celebrated engage ment.

A Young Business Man Forges the Signature of His Benefactor. KINGSTON, Ind., July 18.—DeWitt H. New- kirk, a young cigar-makerand tobacco dealer, who has been doing an extensive business in his wife’s name here for some time, came to grief suddenly Sunday morning. His store was closed by his creditors. It is now found that he is a forger to a large amount dy hisown confession to hisvictim, who was giv- ing him financial aid. Jacob L. De- Witt, partnerof Postmaster Gillespie in the grocery business, had indorsed business paper for him or Frances Newkirk, his wife, to the amount of about $2,380). Finding this insufficient, the young tobacco man continued making similar notes, attaching the endorse- ment of Mr. DeWitt himself without troubling that gentleman for his autograph. When these notes in the State of New York Bank reached $10,000, the clerks became suspicious and sub- mitted the signature tothe President, but he considered it genuine, and subsequent paper was discounted for him, the whole amounting to $20,832, before Mr. DeWitt was app. ised of the matter. Dewitt's debt is thought to be secure, but the bank must lose considerably.

A BRAVE GIRL. Miss Mary Tice Saves Three Men and Three Women From Drowning. By Telegraph to the PosT-Dispatcu N NEW YORK, July 18.—A party of three young women and three young men were saved from drowning yesterday during the storm, mainly through the courage and daring of a girlof 16 years, Who lives oo the Communipaw shore. Her name is Mary Tice, and sheis noted for her expertness in either sail or row boat. The three men hired g row boat named the Henry at a boat-house in Communipaw, and, accom- panied by the three young women started out. The Henry carries a sail, and it was hoisted when they got about 200 feet from shore. The next moment the storm broke andthe first gust of wind capsized the boat and threw its occupants into the water. Miss Tice, secing the men and girls struggling in the water, called to John Wood to accompany her, and jumped intoa yaw!. A few vigorous strokes brought the yawl alongside the young women, and a moment or two later Miss Tice and Mr. Wood had all of them in the yawl. The young men were also rescued. The party were profuse in their expressions of gratitude to Miss Tice and Mr. Wood, but they refused to give their names. Only $1.50 for 100 VISITING CARDS and Plate. ag lhe finestengraved work.

Ex-Captain John Ward of New York Submits a Powerful Argument to President Nick Young—How Trainer Rogers Brought Troubadour Into Form—The League as & Six-Club Association—Sporting News in General—Base Ball Gossip. While the champion Browns are absent on their present trip East they will play a dozen games with the four Eastern clubs, or three with each. Opening with the Metropolitans on Wednesday the club will cross over to Brooklyn and playa series with Byrne’s team, thence going to Baltimore for three more, and playing their last game abroad with the Ath- letics on August 2. When the club returns on August 4 the Cin- cinnatis will be here to meet them. Captain Comiskey and his men should swell their good lead in games won on this trip. The team was never in better condition than itisat present, the only drawback being the injury of Bushong’s finger. This cannot really be regarded as a drawback as long as Boyle continues to do the clever work be has — lately. In the series with the Mets the Browns should win all the games they play. In Brooklyn — should win at least two out ot the three, and three out of four at Baltimore, while in Philadeiphia they should not give the Athletics a single victory. Won Both. The hot weather yesterday played into the hands of the Browns at Sportsman’s Park and they won from the Athletics in a close game, the feature of which was the nice batting of both teams. The opposing pitchers were Caruthers and Seward. The Browns made 10 runs, 12 hits and 4 errors, and the Athletics 8 runs, ll bits and 4 errors. The score of Saturday’s was more one-sided. The Browns in that game had 9 runs, 15 bits and 2 errors, and the Athleties 2 runs, 9 hits and 8 errors. Joe Murphy umpired both games. Ball Games Abroad. Association.

At Philadelphia—Philadeiphia, 10; Detroit, 4. Coming Changes. That there will be several important changes in the circuit of the two great base-ball bodies in 1888 there can be no doubt, remarks the En- quirer. In the East the Association will proba- bly remain as at present constituted. The Mets, who have heretofore not made any money for their owner on Staten Island, have this season done remarkably well, and will undoubtedly continue. The Brook- lyns have had 80 tar n brilliant financial season, but a very Indianapolis pro- fessionalone. There is no use to pour hot tar on Charley Byrne’s gray hairs, and the Brook- lyns may do better ‘‘next’’ season. Balti- more has had the best year of its existence as a ball club, both professionally and finan- cially. Of course Barnie wants more of it. The Athletics, on account ofthe grasshopper manner in which the club has been conducted, have not done very weil either as artists or financiers. However, Philadelphia is a good ball town, and ali the Athletic people need to make money is a good team. In the West there is Cincinnati, which has so far had the most successful season of its career, and of course intends to continue. St. Louts has been fairly successful, and will goon. About Louls- ville aud Cleveland there seems to be some doubt. Neither city bas made any money and neither team has played very good ball There are two League cities in the West which are reaching outfor an Association membership—Detroit and the renegade (Pittsburg). and the proba- bility is that arrangements will be perfected toadmit the former. Columbus, ilwaukee and Kansas City are also applicants for the first vacancy, and one of these three would be chosen in preference to Pittsburg should two vacancies occur. The League will probably be compelled to drop to an association of six clubs instead ot eight. In the East the owners of the Wash- ington Club desire to lie down, while the Philadelphias have a white elephant on their handsin theshape of an $80,000 ground and — stand to which the people will not go ecause the team is playing jim crow ball. In the West Pittsburg and Indianapolis are dead cocks in the pit, while Detroit, as stated above, desires to leave the body which has tried to break up their team by abolishing the percentage system. It will thus be seen that only the most careful sailing can keep the old League hulk with its load of autediluvian fossils from drifting on to the breakers. — — . —— THE RESERVE RULE. John Ward Writes About the Outrages and Abuses of Base Ball. John Ward of the New York nine has writ- ten along letter to N. E. Young, President and Secretary of the League, touching a num- ber of abuses that have crept into the game of base ball. In speaking of the ‘‘reserve law’’ he says: ‘‘In order to justify this extraordinary measure and distract public attention ffom the real causes making it necessary, the clubs tried to shift the blame on the players. They declared that players were demanding extor- tionate salaries, and thatthe rule was needed as a protection againstthese. They attempted to conceal entirely the real cause of the trouble, which lay in the extravavant and un- business-like methods of certain managers and in the lack of good faith between the clubs themselves. »The reserve rule inaugurated a species of seridom, which gave one set of men a life es- tate in the labor of another, and withheld from the latter any corresponding claim. No at- tempt has ever been made to defend it on the rounds of,abstract rights. Its justification, fany, lay only in its expediency, and the con- tinuance of this should therefore be its only claim to a present existence. * „ In- steud of an institution for good, it has become one for evil; instead of a measure of protec. tion, it has been used as a handle for the ma- nipulation ofa trafic in players—a sort of spec- ulation in live stock—by which they are bought, sold and transferred like so many sheep. He then shows that this ‘‘reserve yaw’? is now the lawof all the base ball associations, —— that a player is powerless before it, and adds: The crowning outrage of all came in the Shape of a resolution adopted by the Amer. ican Association at its Cleveland ‘meeting last spring. **Notsatisfied with the passive conspiracy not to hire areserved player if be refused to sign with the reserving club, the Association actually declared its intention of blacklisting him.“ Mr. Ward then alludes to the ‘‘loan- ing of players and likens the system tothe hiring of a horse for its keep, and adds: En- couraged by the 1 inactivity of the players the clubs have gone on from one usurpation to another, until in the eyes of the base ball ‘magnates’ the player has become a mere chattel. He goes where he is sent, takes 12 given bim and thanks the Lord for e. ? Next he mentions the selling of layers and sharply criticises the action of the Chica 0 elud in seillng Keliy’s services, to which he says the club has no right. Further on, he says one would naturally suppose that the dts- bandment of the club with which he was under contract would release the player from all restrictions, and such was indeed the case until within the last ear. But with the expected retirement of the St. Louis and Kansas City ciubs a num- ber of first-class players were to be thrown upon the market who would command good salaries if left to contract for themselves. The avarice of the clubs was equal to the occasion, and the League itself (whatever that may mean) reserved these men and peddled them out at so much per head. Without any regard to the fact that family ties and other codsider.- ations bound them to pc rticular localities, the pavers were disposed of at the will of the ague here, there, or anywhere it saw fit, and, through the same organized conspiracy, were obliged to go as assigned or quit playing ball altogether. In conclusion, he says:“ Ine remedy for these abuses may be dim. cult to find; the system has become so rooted that heroic treatment may be necessary to re- | first-class move it; but go it must like every other ed upon so great in em The only question is, whence shall the remedy proceed? Shall itcome from the clubs or from the players, orfrom both, con- jointly? The interes of the national game are too great tobe longer trified in such a manner, and if the clubs cannot find a way out of these difficulties the players will try to do it for them. Just Like Anson. The San Francisco Call alludes to some very clever management of one of the local mana- gers. TheCallsays: ‘‘There isa method in the way the Altas are managed by Wilbur F. George. His word is law with the team; he has no friend, vet every man in the team is his friend. The players know that they hold their | positions in the team just as long as they play | good ball,and not an hour longer. One method ‘which has contributed more to the success of the team than anything else is his personal supervision over their practice games. In place of the usual batting of grounders and flies, and allowing the practice to end w.th that, Mr.George devotes about fifteen minutes to an inspection of each player’s work. Each man in turn takes a lace at the bat and faces a pitcher until he has batted three unsafe balls, or until struck out three times. Thus, each player is made to face three or four pitchers, each of whom differs widely in delivery. The balls are, of course, fleided just as if the game was being played. Then, in turn, each man practises running bases, efforts all the while being made to throw him out. Thusis the runner practising a quick start on the pitcher. Is it any wonder that he has a winning nine?“ Clips and Chips. Morris of the Pittsburgs has pitched in eight games in which his club has been defeated, and in only two in which they have won. In fact, he has been a complete failure in the box against the League batsmen. Dave Rowe isa greater man in Lincoln than Gov. Thayer. He ownsthe town. His admir- ers send burouches around for his family, and Rowe is in as great demand Buffalo Bill is in London just now. —{[Omaha Herald. Said Manager Williams the other day: ‘‘I can get $800 for McKean at any time I want to let him go.’’—fSeveral exchanges. Mr. Will- iams said no such thing, and three times $800 wouldn't buy McKean’s release. - [Cleveland Plain Dealer. Young Cross’ fuce is severely skinned and bruised, and looks as if he had been run through a threshing machine. He made a daring slide into third base in the last game with the Mets, and tore up the earth with his head instead of his feet, which explains the injury. ‘ John Ward’s actual batting average is .340. He is rapidly approaching his 100thhit. He has played in sixty-five games, and made hits in all but five, and in but one of the five games did he fall to get his base on balls. He leads the League in stolen bases, with sixty-two to his credit, an average of ulmost one to a game. In their games the Detroits have been — weakened by the absence of Dunlap at second. Richardson fills his place fully as well, it not better, than the great Dunlap could himself, but the left fleid is not attended to in true Richardsonian style. Then the batting of Manning and Shindle is not on a par with that of Dunlap and White. Among the new pitchers the Detroit club havein view are Krock of Oshkosh, Vian of St. Paul, Winkelman of Minneapolis, and Toby Black of Memphis. The latter is spoken of with especial favor, and if any serious weakness should develop among the twirlers of the Detroit team it is said that one of these pitchers will be found among the Wolverines if money can get him. Dunlevy obtained leave of absence from President Wikoff on account of sickness. He left for his home at Evansville, Ind., last night. He felt very bad over the treatment he had received at the hands of Charlie Mason of the Athletics. President Byrne said yesterday that he condemned the trick, and would do his part toward seeing that Mr. Mason received the punishment he deserved.—/[Cincinnati Enquirer. A great many base ball enthusiasts think that Ramsey depends altogether on his fam- ous dropcurve. This isa mistake. He uses one of the deepest incurves of any pitcher on the diamond, and often employs a rising ball and an outshoot. Ramsey varies his delivery asmuchasany of hisrivals, and keeps the batters constantly wondering whatsort ofa ball willnext bethrown. Thisis the strong point.—[{Courier-Journal. Bob Ferguson umpired a recent game be- tween the Mets and Athletics, in which a — oe! took advantage ot the umpire’s back eing turned and made a start from second on a passed ball, and scored his run bDevause the umpire had not noted that he had failed to touch third base. in speaking of it afterward Ferguson is reported to have sald: ‘‘I felt mortaly certain that he did not go to third base, as he scored almost as soon as the base runner who was on third atthe time. But be- fore I could do anything in the matter the crowd began to hootand I declined to change my decision. Let an umpire be overcome just ounce by the players or the crowd and he will never be acknowledged afterward.’’ The Little Diamond.

How Trainer Rogers Showed His Fine Work With the Laiter. Black and Blue, writing in the Mail and Express of Friday, says: Mr. Rogers of Capt. S. 8. Brown's Pittsburg stable, again em- phasized the fact yesterday that as a trainer of crippled thoroughbreds he has no equal in America. He established himself perma- nently as a skilful handler of broken-down horses when he patched ep that magnificent cripple, Freeland, two years ago, and ran him into such good condition that he de- feated Miss Woodford, at that time em- press ofthe turf. This year when Troubadour arrived at the Brooklyn Jockey Club track good judges said he would never race again. Gentlemanly Mr. Rogers said nothing, but con- tinued to keep the big horse's feet in tubs of cold water and apply soothing loticns. He won u race from a lat uf plugs and then good judges said he would never be able to defeat a horse, for his sore ankles would come against him in a bard and bruising race. ers persevered with the conqueror of Miss Woodford, and got him into such good shape that The Lard had to run a mile inside of 1:4] to defeat him at the Brook- lyn Jockey Club track.
