Crispi—Indemnity for the Family of Brignon, the French Gamekeeper—Fears of Indian Troubles in the Northwest— Foreign News. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, October 8.—A new feature in the Irish struggle will be developed next Novem- ber. William O’Brien has, after consultation with his friends in London, concerted a plan of campaign to be put in force when he is committed to jail. This involves a refusal to submit to any of the grosser regulations of prison re- gimen. O’Brien is a man of his word; what he threatens he will perform. The result will probably be a series of sickening scenes. The Government, I believe, have no intention to modify in his favor the treatment accorded ordinary convicts. TRANSFERRING AMBASSADORS. A wholesale transfer of ambassadors is con- templated. It isnot yet certain that Sir Ed- ward Malet will leave Berlin for Paris. The latter mission will probably be saved for Duf- ferin or Landsdowne, either of whom would make a perfect ambassador. Malet much wishes to leave Berlin because he is not on good terms with the Crown Prince, but he is unpopular in Paris. The French only know him as the friend of Bismarck and an opponent of France in Egypt. In fact, his ap- pointment would be fatal to such good rela- tions as exist between France and England. AFFAIRS IN MOROCCO, The crisis in Morocco will probably termin- ate by some kind of European agreement to preserve the status quo. No Power wants anything more than this, though Italy, as usual, shows herself apprehensive of French action. ART AND LITERATURE. A collection of the works of Verstchagin, the Russian realistic painter, ison view here andis very favorably received. The pictures of the resurrection and of the Suviour’s family, which excited such a storm in Vienna, are not produced. The other religious pict- ures, however, with their grim realism, are creating a good deal of interest, and are likely to exercise considerable influence on Lkuglish art. The correspondence of Sir Henry Taylor, selected by himself as materials for posthu- mous publication, has been placed in the hands of Prof. Powden to prepare for the press. It covers sixty years, from 1824 to 1884, and shows Taylor’s life at the Colonial] Office, as a poet and prose writer, his friendship and his sympa- thies. Elliot, Tennvson, Macaulay, Herchel, Swin- burne, Gladstone, were among his correspond- ents. The Longman’s are the publishers. The forthcoming number of the English Historical Review will contain an article on the employment of Indian auxiliaries in the Amer- ican war, by Andrew McFarland Davis. The conclusion of Kingslake’s History of the Crimean Waris now in press. Volume VII. takes up events just after the battle of Inker- mann, and will come down to the substitution for Canrobert of Velissier in command of the Frencharmy. Volume VIII. covers the pe- riod to the death of Lord Raglan. „Record of the Past’’ isthe title of a new series which Samuel Bagster will issue under the editorship of Prof. Sayce. The widow of Granville Murray is preparing his memoirs for publication, through Samson & Low. — ~—-~= — — — THE NEW ALLIANCE, Signor Crispi’s Significant Remark—Opinion of a Russian Organ. ROME, October 8.—Sig. Crispi, the Italian Prime Minister, has returned to this city from Friedrichsruhe, where he went to visit Prince Bismarck. He was metat the station by the Minister of Marine, and his first words to the latter were: I bring peace. A RUSSIAN OPINION. BRUSSELS, October 8.—Le Nord, the Russian organ published here, referring to the recent conference at Friedrichsruhe between Prince Bismarck and Signor Crispi, the Italian Pre- mier says: Prince Bismarck knows that no European alliance can compensate Germany in the future for hostility on the part of Rus- sia. Signor Crispi, it will be found, has been treated very courteously, but has received recommendations of prudence rather than encouragement to undertake adventures or proiilses of territorial ager randizement.’’ England. PARADE OF THE UNEMPLOYED. LONDON, October 8.—Two hundred of the poor, homeless, unemployed persons who sleep at night in Trafalgar Square, to-day paraded in a body through the principal streets in the West End. They carried a black banner bearing ip white letters the in- scription ‘*We will have work or bread.’’ A large force of police, mounted andi on foot, accompanied the procession, which eventually returned to Trafalgar Square and with the followers attracted, held a meet- ing. The orators who addressed this assem- blage described the hardship of the tot of those whose only resting place in London at night was in a public square, and declared that the only means they had of drawing the atten- tion of the publicto their condition was by such demonstrations as they had just made. The meeting adopted a resolution to reassem- ble in the same place next Monday, and to con tinue to parade daily until relief was af- forded. INCREASE OF IMPORTS. The returns issued by the Board of Trade show that the imports during the month of September increased $1,170,000 as compared with those of the corresponding month last year, and that the exports increased $900,000 as compared with those of September, 1886. Ireland. NOT SATISFIED. DUBLIN, October 8.—The Express, a Tory organ, complains that the Government are irresolute in the enforcement of the crimes act, and says that they either shirk action or court defeat. ‘‘Does the Government,’’ the Express asks, ‘‘really mean to enforce the act?’’ Continuing, the paper says: ‘‘Firm men are wanted to carry out the law, and Mr. Balfour must come to Dublin. THE WHELAN MURDER. At Ennis to-day the prisoners under exam- Villiers, Sir James Stephens, Sir Charles | ternational boundary line. ' | ination for complicity in the murder of Con- stable Whelan were, on the testimony of Cal- linan, the informer, committed for trial. Ball was refused. The populace cheered the pris- oners as they were led back to jail. France. INDEMNITY FOR BRIGNON’S FAMILY. PARIS, October 8.—Count Von Munster, the German Ambassador, yesterday handed to M. Flourens, Minister of Foreign Affairs, $12,500, the amount agreed upon to be paid by the German Government as indemnity to the fam- ily of game keeper Brignon, who was recently shot dead on the Franco-German frontier. Count Von Munster stated that an inquiry was proceeding to fix the responsibility for Kauff- mann’s act in shooting Brignon, A SERIOUS CHARGE. Gen. Caffarell, who was yesterday suspended from the position of Chief of the War Depart- ment Staff; Mme. Limonsin and Baron Kreit- maler, a German, have been arrested for sell- ing civil decorations. Russia. H. M. DELIANOFF DISMISSED. Sr. PETERSBURG, October 8.—It is reported that M. Delianoff, Minister of Public lnstruc- tion,has been dismissed from office. His rigor- ous exercise of power over students in the gym- nasia caused general discontent among the people. The police administration was aleo dissatisfied, owing to the wholesale expulsion of students, hundreds of whom have been lost sight of whose careers the police desired to follow. Belgtum. A SOCIALIST FIASCO. BRUSSELS, October 8.—The Socialists recent- ly posted a number of placards throughout the city, summoning workmen to assemble at the court-house for the purpose of attend- ing the trial of the Socialist More. The inten tion evidently was to cause a disturbance, but their efforts were abortive. No crowds of workmen gathered and the trial was con- ducted quietly. Morocco. THE SULTAN NUT DEAD. LonpDon, October 8.—The Sultan of Morocco is not dead, notwithstanding that a dispatch from Tangiers yesterday reported his death and the accession of his son to the throne. A dis- patch received to-day from Tangiers says it is Officially announced that His Majesty is not only alive but that his condition is better than it has been tor some days. Afghanistan. THE AMEER’S DANGER. ST. PETERSBURG, October 8.—The Russian Invalid, the organ of the War Office, says Ayoub Khan has reached Ghazeni. His influ- ence, the paper adds, has so seriously affected the situation in Afghanistan that the Ameer’s position in Cabul has become one of extreme difficulty, and he evidently doubts of ultimate success, for he is sending his treasure and valuabies to Khana-I-Bad. The Dominion. THE INDIAN TROUBLES. OTTAWA, Ontario, October 8.—For some time the Governinent here has been in receipt of news rather disquieting in character regard ing the Indians of the Northwest Territory, who are again showing signs of disaffection, more particularly along both sides of the In- Word bas just been received here that pointsto a union of several disaffected tribes and holt breeds, unless a junction is pre- vented. Advices from Rapid City say the Indians in that locality are committing serious depredations, burning barns and plundering wherever they can find anything to carry off. Several shots have been exchanged between the helpless settlers and Indians, resulting, so far as known, in the shooting of one Indian. Detachments of mounted police will be at once sent to the scene of the trouble, while reinforcements will patrol along the boundary line to pre vent th junction with American In- dians there. The Government has been very reticent as to the actual state of affairs until now, and in fact has positively refused to give any information beyond stating that every- thing was moving along satisfactorily as it did before the Riel rebellion in 188. The escape of Deerfoot to United States territory has caused the Indians to regard the mounted police with less fear than they did previous to his escape. The little influence it formerly exercised is fast disappearing. THE CALIFORNIA DISASTER. The Minister ot Marine has ordered an ot ficial inquiry into the recent wreck of the pro- peller California. The investigation will probably be held in Toronto. MURDER OR ACCIDENT. J. D. Raymond, United States Consul in this city about twenty years ago, was found dead yesterday morning in McCrady & Son’s tan- nery at Brockville with a bullet-hole in his side. Death had evidently taken place carly in night. It is not believed that he committed suicide, but how the shooting occurred is un- known. Thefumily of the deceased live in Ogdeusburg, N. Y. — ee ee FAITHLESS FIDELITY. The Receiver of the Defunct Bank Makes a Report. WASHINGTON, D. C., October S. — The Comp- troller of the Currency to-day received an ex- press package from Cincinnati containing a voluminous report from the receiver of the Fidelity National Bank in regard to its condi- tion. The report will be made public this afternoon. While the affairs of the bank are known to be in a complicated and highly un- satis{actory condition, it is believed the funds atcommand will justify the Comptroller in deciaring a small dividend in favor of the de- positors at an early day. — — ee ee A Startling Conspiracy. WASHINGTON, D. C., October 8.—The Reform League of Baltimore has created a sensation by publishing affidavits from two prominent citizens who claim to have overheard Senator Gorman Jackson, Democratic candidate for Governor, and (Chairman Archer of the Dem- ocratic State Central Committee, plotting to strike 5,000 names of qualified voters from the registry liste and to raise a corruption fund. Naval Officer Rasin, who has charge of Gorman’s campaign, was to do the work through the police. The League heard of these facts some days ago and published an outline of them. The tmplicated gentiemen at once denied the charge. Thereupon the League secured aflidavite from ex-Surveyor of the Port Wilson and Deputy Surveyor Nalll. The former said he was in the next room to the plotters and overheard the par- tles named arrange to strike off the names. Hog Cholera. GENESEO, II., October 8.—Within the past three weeks over five hundred head of hogs have died of cholera in Western Township. The disease is slowly spreading and is taking both old and young hogs. The loss from this canse to the farmers of Henry County this already amounts to $12,000, © disease existe in Phenix, Edford, Wethersfield Andover, Western, Kewanee, Loraine and other townships in tne county. This loss coming on the heels of the drought, is very severe On the farmers. — elde BIG GAME. THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR ATTACK THE STANDARD OIL MONOPOLY. A Grand Effort to Be Made to Secure Some of Its Business—The Appeal of the Co- operative Oil Company—Discussing Con spiracy—Jay Gould’s Growing Lover Proceedings of the General Assembly. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., October. 8&.—The Knights of Labor Convention opened at 9:15 this morning. Thomas H. Lowry of District lll, Bradford, Pa., moved to suspend the rules in order to be given time to read an appeal on the operations of the Standard Oil monopoly. This motion was carried and the paper read by Mr. Lowry. It was of considerable length, and referred in unmeasured terms to the operations of the monopoly mentioned, and will be a keynote for the other papers of similar nature to be presented, The following is the appeal by the Knights of Labor Co-operative Oil Refining Company: OLEAN, N. I., August 20 To the Officers and Delegates of the General As- sembly: Firmly believing in the ultimate success of our enterprise inthe interest of the common brotherhood and relying, as we must, on the Knights of Labor for patronage and support, therefore we appeal to this Assembly for recognition and recommendation to the order everywhere to purchase our ol! wherever it can be had, and to make a demand to dealers for such goods. If the dealers will not supply the oil, then we ask the Assemblics every- where to take action thereon and order for their own use, thereby creating a demand for our oll. Remember, we ure attempting to compete with the strongest and most unseru pulous monopoly in the world, They have caused the surrender of a greater number of oll refineries and cotton seed oll plants than all other monopolies combined. The number of petroleum oil refiners in Pennsyivania bunkrupted, quashed ont, bought up, leased and dismantied embraces seveuty-one. A list of cotton seed oil manufacturers frozen out of istence by the American Cotton Seed Oil Trust, that is owned and controlled b the Standard Oil Company, are ninety-four. can furpish the names of these firms if neces- sary. At the rute they have been able to crush out all competitors in the past ten years they will, unless some system of restraint can be adopted, own or control, in twenty years, three-fourths of all the railroads and manu- facturing enterprises in the United States. In fact, they now control legislation in sev- eral States, regarding the transportation of oil, and have pocketed and are pocketing mill- ions a year at the expense of the producer and consumer. Weask you, as members of our common brotherhood, to take such action as will seem consistent under the circumstances. [Signed] L. C. Prrt, President, and other officers. The appeal was received with applause, and cheers, eat calls, cries of Down with them, ete., and was placed tn the hands of the Com- mittee on Distribution. It will be indorsed unanimously. DISCUSSING CONSPIRACY. The roll-call of District A occupied some time, and Mr. Powderly,on motion, appointed a committee of five on the Labor Journal aud another five on immigration. Mr. Noyes, Chairman of Committee on Con- spiracy, resumed his report. This was quite exe iting, and gave rise to much spirited talk onthe part of O’Riclly of New York, and Secretary Lichtman Massachussetts. The latter said that Jay Gould had grown 80 powerful that he would stop at nothing. lie had absorbed the Balti- more & Ohio Railway, certain new telegraph lines, and, if be saw fit he could defeat any laws or legislation passed by the Senate of any State inthe country. The discussion upon conspiracies occupied the romainder of the morning session, I orcing the Issue. New YorK, October 8.—Between three and four thousand brass-workers of this city and Brooklyn will to-day be out of employment. The manufacturers have decided to force an issue and see if the Saturday half-holiday mat- ter cannot be permanently settled The men want u full day's pay fora haif day’s work. The employers say, Halt day’s work, halt day's pay. The men have established head- quarters, and last nightthe action of the em- ployers was telegra vhed to the Knights of La bor Convention at Minneapolis, and an answer was received telling the men to hold out and they would receive support from the Knights throughout the country. THE IOWA EVICTIONS, — — — Interesting Statements of Victims of the Alien Landlords, DES MOINES, Io., October 8.—The brief As- | sociated Press telegram from Washington re- citing sundry cruel evictions in Northwestern Iowa, has been more than doubted here in all quarters. However, one of the most reliable citizens of O Brien County was asked last night as to the truthfulness of the dispateh, and instantly indorsed it. In regard to the Engliss Land Company, which is said to be turning American citzens out of their homes, he said: ‘‘lt is certainly true. They are an old firm reorganized into the Western Land Company. They bought from the old McGregor & Western, or its assigns,the Milwaukee and the Sioux City Companies, some lands granted to the McGregor & Western in 1864, but never earned, for the road was never built. When Teller was Secretary of the Interior, he and the Land Commissioner both declared the lands unearned, and prom- ised to open them for settlement. On the faith of these declarations and promises, some settlers went on these lands and built their homes. The English syndicate now has the railroad title and proposes to keep pos- session.’’ low many families have they evicted?’’ At least 100. Before they get through the number will be increased to 160.“ lou say you know some ofthe families? Were any of those you know subjected to un- due severity in their evictions?’’ ‘Yes. The Finch family locked their doors against the intruders, butthe doors and win- dows were broken in and they were carried out and compelled tospend the night on tie pub road. lu the case of Neis Nelson, the same thing happened. And he was so terrorized by a troop of armed men and by levies on bis live stock and furniture, that he succumbed and signed the compan 4 lease. Others have been terrorized into doing the samething. In one case with which 1 am perfectly familiar, the mother-in-law, who ig a member of the family, was sick abed. She was carried out into a hard rain andeompelied to spend the night there, and in the morni seek such shelter as the family could find for her. These are only a few of the cases I r- sonally know, but they will do fur a sample of about a hundred that have occurred, balf as many more that are threatened.’’ Dr. Hamlin’s Statement.

two decisions: . go. Di the will, pated — — St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Saturday, October 8, 1887. — — ALL RIGHT. — 7 - — — — THE DRABELLE SCHOOL LAW DECLARED SOUND. A Majority of the Cirenit Judges Give an Affirming Opinion To-Day—Judges Dillon and Seddon Dissent—The Objections to the Act Met and Answered—Not a Special Act, Nor Are the Judges Assuming Legis- lative Powers. The decision of the Circuit Court, involving the constitutionality of the Drabelle school bill, was handed down this morning in gen- eral session in Court-room No. * There were one affirming the constitu- tionality of the act, signed by Judge Lubke and concurred in by Judges Valliant and Bar- clay, the latter announcing a concurrence in the result only. The dissenting opinion was signed by Judge Dillon, Judge Seddon con- curring. us The act whose constitutlonality was affirmed to-day makes a radical change in the system of electing School Directors in St. Louis or any city ‘‘attaining a population of over three hundred thousand,“ It is commonly known as the Drabelle bill and was passed March 30 It provides for the uniting of last. contiguous wards in such a way as to reduce the districts from twenty-eight wards as at resent, to fourteen districts, two wards thus —— made to constitute one district. In ad- dition to this seven directors are to be chosen atlarge. The whole number of directors will thus be but twenty-one. The fight against the bill since its passage has been unceasing, and every attempt hus been made to bring out its constitutionality. The objections to the act raised at first gradu- ally narrowed down to these three: 1. That the time of the election was placed in advance of the bili going into effect. 2. That it was a special act, in that it applied Only to St. Louis. 3. That it conferred legislative [powers upon the judiciary. These points are taken up succinctly by the majority opinion and answered seriatim. The case in which the opinions were banded down is entitled: „„State of Missouri at relation of Augustine P. Sheehan et als. vs. Board of, President aad Directors of tho St. Louis Public Schools.’’ THE AFFIRMING DECISION. The decision recites that on March 29 a man- damus was begun to compel the Board of Pub- lic schools to order an election of Directors of the Board to conform to the wards of the citv as established by the commission appointed by the court November 17, 1886, under the act of March 31, 1885. The relators allege that the change of wards has vacated the seats of members of the Board, but that the Board declines to call an election to fillthese vacancies. An aiternative writ was issued inthe case returnable April last, but before that time the act of March 30 was passed, going into effect June 19, June 20 the Board made its return, by which it pleaded that the said act repealed the law of 1867, un- der which the election was asked, and asked tor an election under the new act. To this re- turn the relators filed a demurrer and a motion to strike out so much of the return as set out the said statute. THE SOLE QUESTION. The Court hoids that the sole question to be decided is whether or not the act of March 30, known as the Drabelle bill, is valid. The only incongruity appearing is in section 4, wherein it is required that the first election under the act should be held not later than the first Tuesday in May, 1537. The absence of an emergency clause, the Court holds, does not invalidate the act. It says: The judicial department of the Government will not as- sume that the Legislative Assembly depart- ment by passing and e Executive depart- ment by approving this bill without the emer- gency Clause intended todo an idle thing, but will gather from this action and the remaining provisions ofthe act an intent that the Urst election under the act shall be held within a reasonable time after tho act has the force of law and is applicable to the particular locality; and this intent the judicial depart- ment must enforce.’’ Another reason cited why should not be given literal effect is that it would make the act applicable only to St. Louis and destroy the portion of the first see- tion which makes it applicable also to the cities of this State ‘‘hereafter attaining’’ the population of 300, 000. Therefore the Court holds that requirement ofthe date can be struck out from the act without in any measure afivcting the legality of the reinainder. THE ‘*SPECIAL’’ ASPECT. In regard to the constitutional point that the law is snecial, the Court recalls decisions of Supreme Court 01 the State having settled this rule: That special the law must never be ap- gnomes in other parts of the State. The act n question, the opinion holds, not only pro- vides for the present, but anticipates the fu- ture ofall the rapidly growing cities of the State. the requirement LEGISLATIVE POWERS. _ objection of unconstitution- ality met by the Court is that the act confers legislative powers on the judiciary in its provision making the division of the city into districts a duty of the Circuit Court. Io this the court replies thatthe relators claim that the duty is not an exercise of judicial power. ‘The opinion on this point says: We fail to find anything in the Constitution which attaches this duty tothe executive department of the Government; unless, therefore, itis clearly a part ot the legislative department, the court must accept and perforin it because of the well settled rule that every enactment of the Legislature is presumptively constitutional.’’ It also mentions that, in the solution of such a question (the constitutionality of a statute) courts are told not to resort to ‘‘mereverbal criticisms, subtle distinc- tions aud abstract meaning,’’ unless they manifestly infringe upon some provision of the Constitution. The count further holds that the Legislature completed its duty by declaring the policy or general scheme and the manner of representation in the school Boards, and that the details of making a just division of each city were of necessity placed elsewhere to be performed upon the petition of anyone interested in the subject matter, The court also finds in the Constitution’s giving the courts power to divide the State into senator- inland representative districts, a precedent for the present delegation Of power. The opinion also states that as the act did not name tie General 'lerm or the Judges as a Board, it is an indication that the Assembly intended to place the duty upon the Circuit Courts generally in the places where the law might be or might become operative. Tberefore the demurrer and motion to strike out parts of the return to the writ of man- damus is overruled by the Court. THE DISSENTING OPINION. The dissenting opinion was rendered by Judge Dillon, Judge Seddon concurring in his views. He is of opinion that the Constitu- tion of the State pronibits the court from ex- ercising the powers which the Drabelle bill at- tempts to confer. He cites the provisions of the Constitution dividing the duties of govern- ment between tue Legislature, judicial and executive branches and the section defining the jurisdiction of the Cirenit Court. His opinion is that to carry out the provisions the bill by making the districts, as directed, The next would be an infringement on legislative pow- lie thinks that the Legislature might have done the work assigned by the act, to the courts. lie makes the int, based on eminent authority, that it sinthe nature of judicial acts that they are final and not liable to be annulled or set aside ers. 5 27 any other department of the Government. e does not think thatthe powerof the Leg alter or abolish any di city made by the Court under s act will be questioned. He holds that the duties imposed by the art do not pertain to judicial business or have in view the efiicient administration of justice or _ protection of the rights of litigants or others affected by legal proceedings and consequently does not make a constitutional transfer of »wers. On these grounds Judges Seddon and liion dissentfrom the opinion, holding the act to be constitutional, Mr. W. C. Jones who represented the relat- ors is notin the city to-day. On Monday he will have a conference with his clients and then determine if the case will be appealed tothe Supreme Court, Until the redistric- tion of the city Into new school districts the present Board will probably hold over. THE PROSPECTS OF THR LAW. Hon. J. W. Drabeile was one of the two or three lawyers present when the decision came down. He was asked what he thought of the prospects of the act. He wald: It seems to e that the gut against the bill will Se abandoned.

YouNG Gents’ Prince Albert Suits at FAMOUS. an Old Dance-House, HURLEY, Wis., October 8.—A few days ago two bunters, with guns and dogs, started out for game. Before they had gone very far on their way they suddenly missed one of their dogs, which had for some reason turned home. At length they heard him giving vent to a prolonged series of howls and hastened in the direction of the noise. Upon approach- ing the place their olfactory organs were saluted by a niost horrible stench, s terrible that they retraced their steps. They kept whistling and calling to their dog, and at last he followed them, but bringing with him in his mouth a blood-stained and tattered silk cap, such as is commonly used by trainmen insummer. The fact that there were some tufts of human hair adhering to the jagged rent in the cap, together with thetr dog’s anxiety to return to the spot where he had found the ghastly relic, induced the hunters to institute asearch. They followed the dog and right behind the ruins of an old dauce- house, under some rotten logs and a slight covering of earth, they saw the decomposed corpses of seven murdered men. They lay just as the slayers had thrown thera, some with ygap- ing wounds, showing that they had fought hard for their lives, while others huddled up as if their mur— had done their fiendish work while their victims lay in a drunken stupor. The hunters informed the proper authorities and an investigation followed, but no clew could be;found tothe identity of the corpses, which were so de composed as to be beyond recognition. The fiends that had placed them there had taken good care to rob them of everything. Theremains of the seven men were buried in one grave. They are sup- posed to be victims of dance-house wmur- derers. ALL the latest novelties in Children’s hilt suits at Famous, in Cassimeres, Worsteds and Jersey Cloths, $2 up to $12.50.

This morning Judge Brewer, in the United States Circuit Court, rendered a decision in the suit of the Western Union Telegraph Com- pany vs. Edgar H. Brown et al. on a mo- tion to remand to the State Courts. The suit was brought to recover on the bond of Manager Brown the shortage existing in his accounts with the company atthe time he leftthe city. The Judge summarized his views on the question as follows: un cases involving but a single controversy where the jurisdiction of the court depends only upon the citizenship of the parties the right of moval can only be exercised non-resident defendants. We have given the question a careful examination because of its wide-reuching effect. The plaintiff may not remove under the act of 15887, and if a res- ident defendant muv not remove on the ground of citizenship alone causes in which there is buta single controversy, it is obvious that removals will be infrequent. Still, what ever may be the result, we are to give to the language of the act the construction which will — its intent. Entertaining these views we are of the opinion that the defendants have no right to remove this action and the motion to remand must be sustained. Judge Thayer concurred in the opinion.

LAST DAY OF AWARDS AT THE GREAT ST. LOUIS FAIR. Small Attendance During the Morning— Slight Increase After Noon—Final Allot- ment of Premiums in the Ring—The Pony Race—To-Morrow the Last Day of the Fair. The rain early this morning and the threat- ening weather following it.deterred a great many people who otherwise would have gone from attending the Fair. The clearing weather about 10 o’clock did bring out a few more, but a majority of the Fair-going people seemed to have tired themselves out during the week with the Fak and other attractions combined. About the grounds there was a getting-ready-to-leave air. In fact, a num- ber of the exhibitors of agricultural machin- ery and farm engines were taking out their exhibits early this morning. The awards in the departments were nearly finished yesterday with the exception of afew classes in the Grocers’ Sundries De- partment. The exhibitors who have been giv- ing away samples and pictures did not com- mence operations to-day until about noon. In the amphitheater the last awards were made. The cattle premiums were finished yesterday and to-day the last of the horses were passed upon. The entries In the thoroughbred ring were very few, there being only one entry in the first two classes. The seats around the ring were almost deserted; there were not more than a hundred people under the roof during the morning. The pony race between boys under 14 succeeded in drawing a few more people, but very little enthusiasm was shown over any of the exercises, AWARDS IN THE RING.

It is the largest and finest display of artistic and every-day goods that has been made at any previous Fair. ‘This firm decided afew weeks ago thatthey would show St. Louls and tlie thousands of visitors who were to attend our fall festivitics what a Misseuri company could do in the way of manufacturing fine furniture, They entered the ring with the intention of standing withoutarival, andthey succeeded, even their eoinpetitors acknowledging that for once they have been fairly distanced in the race for honors. in les Mr. hoppel- man started a small manufactory and commenced to lay a foundation for future suc- cess. From vearto year his business grew, until in 1878, he found himself so overrun with orders, that he decided to admit outside capital, and the firm name then became ‘‘The Koppelman Furniture Co. The committee on awards were so th®roughly convinced of the superior merits of this company’s display, that they awarded it nine firstpremiums, They are as follows: First premium, best general display; first premium, best bed room suite; first premium, best dining-room first premium, best display of embossed furniture; first premium, best wardrobe; first premium, best hat- rack; first premiuim, best display of dining room furniture, St. Louis make; first premium, best display of chairs, St. Louis make; best library-case and also the best folding-lounge on exhibition was included in this exhibit. These nine premiums represent a great victory for the hoppelman Furniture Company, as they had for competitors for these same premiums, some of the lurgest and best St. Louis manufacturers. The enviable reputation that this tirm aiready enjoys, has been greatly enhanced by this year’s exhibit, and the future gives proinise oi added pros- perity. 1 4 . SuUlte; TAKE one of Dr. J. II.

THE BIG DEAL — ROBERT GARRETT DISSATISFIED WITH THE R. & O. SALE. The Young Railroad Magnate Intimates That There Has Been No Trade—Threats Against Gould—Alleged to Have Been Sold Out—The Contract in the Possession of the Western Union Company—Ed Stokes Talks. NEW YORK, October 8.—The Times prints the following: ‘‘It’s no trade, gentlemen,“' said Mr. Robert Garrett to Edward 8. Stokes and a small party of friends at the Hoffman House early last evening. He referred to the sale of the Baltimore & Ohio Telegraph Company to Jay Gould. The announcement—most emphatically made—was a genuine surprise to Mr. Stokes and his friends. They supposed the sale had been ratified, and that all papers relating to it had been signed, sealed and delivered. They hinted as much, asking Mr. Garrett if he had read the papers. Mr, Garrett replied that he had, but repeated that, in spite of everything said and done, the Bal- timore & Ohio Telegraph Company had not yet been absorbed by its hungry rival. Mr. Gar- rett looked and spoke as if he were very much in earnest. There is no exaggeration in the statement that it put Mr. Garrett ina bad humer to dis- cover that the syndicate apparently con- sidered his presence entirely unnecessary. Mr. Garrett thought so much haste un- seemly and in discussing the sale last even- ing he saidso. The syndicate might have waited, he thought, until be was upon the ground before it disposed of the property, in the preservation of which he was particularly interested. It looked odd, he said, that an attempt should be made to sell the property while he was on the ocean and notina posi- tion to interfere with plans in which Le Was at least entitled to a voice. TROUBLE POR GOULD. Before Mr. Garrett leftthe Hoffman House he had impressed his hearers with the idea that Gould might experience a good deal of trouble before he could legally claim the Baltimore & Ohio Telegraph Company as hisown. Of one thing they were satisfied, that Gould would not be allowed to keep his new purchase atthe price he is said to have paid, for Mr. Garrett, In addition to announcing that no trade had been made, said that Gould would under no circumstances get the Baltimore & Ohio Tele- Kraph Company for $5,000,000; he would have to pay agood deal bigger figure, for he was the last man in the country to whom Garrett would be willing to sell. tobert Garrett did not say all this until he had a long talk with John K. Cowan and other counsel. He spent several hours at the lirevoort in consultation with his lawyers, and the matters in discussion were considered So important that 2 o’clock arrived before Mr. Garrett bethought him of a promise he hud made to lunch with some friends at the Manhattan Club. Lunch having been dis- posed of, Mr. Garrett walked up to the Hoff- man House, and there made opponents of Western Union and friends of competitors in telegraphy happy by declaring that he meant fight and felt sure of winning. He was inclined to this way of thinking through the knowledge thatthe Baltimore & Ohio Tele- egraph Company was indebted to him person- ally tothe not altogether trivial sum of be- tween $3,000,000 and $4,000,000. ° When Mr. Garrett returned to the Brevoort liouse last evening he was not in a talkative mood, so far as business was concerned. He had nothing tosay. ‘‘Not now at least; per- haps in a duy or two.“ GARRETT’ S STATEMENT. The statement in a morning paper to the ef- fect that Robert Garrett; referring to the ab- sorption of the B. & O. telegraph lines by the Western Union, said, It is no trade, gentle- men, caused considerable talk, but no ex citement. Western Union went off a point,but that was not attributed to Mr. Garrett's al- leged denial of the sale. Mr. George Gould treated the story laughingly. Hedid not be- lieve that Mr. Garrett was correctly quoted. ‘*Although the collateral has not been turned over the agreement has been signed and is in our possession. ‘There is no Baltimore & Ohio telegraph now, as their wires are a part of our System.“ Mr. Gould also denied the statement in the same articlethatthe B. & O. owed Mr. Gar- rett personally, between $5,000,000 and .34, 000, - 000. Mr. M. B. Somerville of the Western Union was authorized to say that Dr. Norvin Green did not believe the story, and that Dr. Green was so confident that there would'be no trouble about the sale that he had decided to issue no statement about the matter, contrary to his original intention. WHY THE SALE WAS HURRIED. „No slight was intended to Mr. Garrett, continued Mr. Somerville, ‘‘by closing the sale while he was on his way from Europe. The hurry was to prevent the possibility of an injunction being obtained by which the sale would be deferred, Any holder of Western Union stock could have caused delay and a holder of 100 shares could have made any amount of trouble.’’ Mr. Samerville was askedif Mr. Garrett could break the transaction. Most certainly he could not,“ he replied. We bought the linés from the Drexel-Morgan syndicate, who were the custodians of the property and fully empowered to sell. We have the property safe and sure. If Mr. Gar- rett saidthatthe B. & O. owes him $3,000,000 and the statement is true, the officers of the B. & O. have made a false report. The tel- egraph company might owe him something if he owned the railroad entirely, but he does not. The B. & 0. still have the privilege of using certain of the lines, but all will be peace. ably arranged, you may be sure. If he antici- pated any trouble, Mr. Jay Gould would not be out of town until Monday. STOKES TALKS. Mr. Garrett still refuses to see reporters or to say whether the great telegraph deal has been legally completed or not. Mr. Stokes smiled as he sat in his private office at the Hoffman this morning, when a reporter ac- costed him on the subject of Mr. Garrett’s threats of the night before. He was asked this question: „Did Mr. Garrett say to you last night that there would be no deal with the Western Union?’’ „ie said there would be fun somewhere. Hie was very much excited and abused Jay Gould without stint. If there had been a trade, he said, it would not hold water.’’ „Did he threaten to sue Mr. Gould?’’ „es, he threatened all sorts of things. He said that he had been seld out by his friends anathathe would get even all around, i never saw him soexcited. He declared that snap-judgment had been taken on him when he was away, but that the conspirators wouid und that their plans would not hold.“ Did you have any dealings with Mr. Gar- rett in reference to the Baltimore & Ohio Tele- uruph lines? „es, a good many. When Mr. Garrett went to Europe the other gentlemen engaged in the deal believed that we had about effected the consolidation of the Baltimore & Onio, the Postal andthe United Lines Telegraph com- panies. If Garrett had done as he promised to do the Western Union would never pay anoth- er dividend.’’ „What was the promise?’’ „% An agreement to the consolidation. were to capitalize the stock at $20,000,000, Mr. John W. Mackay was to put in $1,000,000; Mr. Garrett $1,000,000, and the stock of the com- pany would make up the 520, 000, 000.“ Have you any idea why Garrett failed to keep his word?“ Not the slightest. and that ended the matter. THE POSTAL NOT FOR SALE. e Is it probable that the Western Union will now swallow the United Lines and Postal Companies?’’ No. I ought to know something about that, and Iwill have something to say when the attempt is made. We are not for sale.“ ‘‘Whatis your personal opinion of the Bal- timore & Ohio sale? *‘I think that Gould has the lines, or if he has not, he has sucha big siice that he will soon got the rest. He has got the longest pole now, and 1 guess he will get the per- simmons.’’ ‘*Do zou think that Mr. Garrett was nest when he was tatking last night?’’ „e was, or I was more deceived by a man’s action than lever was before. He looked an- gry enough to fight,and when he said he would make the fur fly he looked capable of it. WON'T TALK.

AN inquest was commenced to-day on the body of Thomas S8. B. Lillibridge, who was found dead in bed at the St. Louis Hotel, 701 North Main street, yesterday morning. , As he had been ill for sometime it is thought that malarial fever, from which he suffered, was the cause of death.

Unknown miscreants attempted last night to break the lock of a switch on a side track of the Illinois & St. Louis Railroad. They did not succeed, but the lock was battered so that it had to be taken off to-day. Mr. D. J. Timlin of the Illinois & St. Louis Rallroad Company has sent a check for $25 to Jacob Reeb, a miner at Schuermann's pit, who was the first to discover the displaced ralls on the road one morning during the strike in April a year ago, and saved the accommodation train from being wrecked.

Ma-ssu and Ma Jen-k‘nei were two brothers who lived in the Yun-ch‘eng Dis- trict. The elder, Ma Jen-K‘uei, was a hot-tempered, good-for-nothing sort of a follow, who was continually borrowing money and articles from his younger broth- er, and either helped himself or made a row if he met any signs of refusal. One day he sent his son to Ma-ssu for the loan of some money, and, being refused, the youngster attempted to make off with a cooking pan, but was stabbed by his uncle and obliged to leave withoutit. The father vowed that he would have vengeance, if he should burn his younger brother’s whole household. This made the latter determined to get rid of his elder brother as soon as an opportunity offered. Ma Jen-k'uei was riding one day on a donkey to a fair in the neighborhood, and, dismounting on the way, sat down to have asmoke. The younger brother, who had followed him, rushed up and dealt him several fatal thrusts with a knife. He then led away the donkey, sold it to some unknown person,and returned with the price wrapped up in the saddle-cloth. The authorities posted notices giving a description of the dress and appearance of the deceased, and his married daughter having come acoss one of them came tothe conclusion that the murdered man must be her father, and went to see her uncle Ma on the subject. On being questioned Ma got flurried and gave contradictory answers, but his niece had not evidence enough to charge him with-the crime. Being afraid thatthe saddle-cloth would betray him, he went to bury it in the fam- ily cemetery, and was detected by his niece, who happened at the moment to be sweeping the graves. The case was not considered to be fully established at first, but after repeated trials the facts as given above have been clearly proved, and have been confirmed by the man’s own confes- sion. He has been sentenced to death by the slicing process, in accordance with the law applicable to the case of a person who murders a senior in years related to him within the second degree of mourning.

The nose is, if we are Bec, a French savant, gradually losing its power to discharge its traditional function in the case of the civilized’ peo- ples, and when the sense of smell vanishes altogether, as will infallibly be the case one day hetells us, the organ itself is bound to follow its example sooner or later. It is no doubt the fact, as he points outthat the olfactory sense ever so much keener inthe savage than in the civilized man, and it reasonable to conclude that the more we progress in civilization, the duller the sense will grow. Its complete extinction, M. le Bec assures us, is a mere question of time, and it is certain that Nature never conserves useless organs. When the nose loses its power of smell- ing, the nose must go.’’ Civilization is gradually making us bald (about that there can be no doubt whatever), and it will be a heavy price to pay for it if we are to lose our noses as well as our hair. If this ever happens the civilized world will for one thing have to revise its standard of comeliness. It may be that the civilized man of the future will see no beauty in a Greek statue unless it has lost its nose, which, it is true, is the case with most of them. to believe M.le is is THE best Men's and Youths’ Trousers ever offered in the world for $2.45 at FAMOUS, Dislike of Voltaire in France.

It appears, after all, that the attempt made to oe down the statue recently er- ected to Voltaire at St. Claude, in the de- partement of Jura, was not due tothe malevolence of the Catholic, but to the patriotic proclivities of some anti-Ger- mans.

One of the romances of the war has just been developed here, in which the only son.of one of North Carolina’s Gov- ernors figure, says a Raleigh dispatch. Gov. Tod R. Caldwell during the war re- sided in handsome style at the quiet little town of Morganton. Of an old and hon- ored family, he was proud, and had but one object of intense affection—his son John—a handsome lad not 20 years of age. In the winter of 1862 this only son begged to be allowed to gotothe army. Entreaties were of no avail, and his father and his mother at last consented, with tears, that he might join the Army of Virginia. He enlisted in the infantry, in Lane’s brigade, Pender’s division, A. P. Hill’s corps. When the campaign opened in 1863, no soldier was more daring than young Cald- well, and he was soon promoted from the ranks. In May he was made a Second Lieutenant for his gallant and merito- conduct. His regiment went into the Pennsylvania campaign. At Gettysburg he was present. and in the hottest of the fight. On the afternoon of July 3, 1863, his regiment swept up a slope within fifty vards of the Federal lines, went closer yet, and bayonets were crossed. Suddenly tke line moved back a little. Young Caldwell was never seen alive after that moment. He was at the front when the backward movement began. His father used all the influence of money and position to find the lost soldier, but unavailingly. The authori- ties refused to allow the graves to be opened. It could not be ascertained whether he was dead or alive, and the matter became one of the most terrible uncertainties. Under the strain the minds of the father and mother were nearly overcome. The father, grimly nursing his greatsorrow, forbade anyone to mention the son’s name, and the terri- ble story was never alluded to, even by the mother. In 1871 Gen. Caldwell became Governor of the State. Two years later, in 1873, an ex-Confederate soldier named Lucas, from Hyde County, was elected to the Legisla- ture, aud came to Raleigh. Some one told him one night the sad story of the death, or supposed death, and mystery of John Caldwell. The next day Lueas called on the Governor and told him the truth at last. Lucas was in another regi- ment, and had observed young Caldwell’s brave bearing as they were near to- gether. in the terrible moment of the repulse he bad seen young Cald- shot down while separated from his men and fighting, hand to hand, a New York soldier. After hearing this story and the further details of the burial of Caldwell by Lucas the Governor locked himself in his room and was all day in tears. He never told his wife of the reve- lation by Lueas, and told it only to his private secretary. A few days ago Maj. Charles W. Cowtan of New York City, wrote your corre- spondent, saying that he had in his pos- session the commission of an officer in a North Carolina regiment, which he had picked up on the battle-fleld of Gettys- burg. His regiment, the Tenth New York, held the line at that point, just after a ter- rible charge by the North Carolinians, in which the fair-haired and bovish officer was brave in the extreme. Maj. Cowtan had examined some of the dead Confederates, who 80 thickly strewed the ground at the works, and near one found a torn and bloody commission, on which was legible only John Ca’’—of the name. Maj. Cowtan expressed a desire to return this commission if any relatives of the dead soldier could be found. The commission was found to be that of the long-lost John Caldwell. Yesterday the commission was sent Mrs. Caldwell, and this blood-stained and torn piece of parchment is, she writes, all there is on earth to remind her of the dead son. For years she cherished the hope that her son was alive and in some prison. In fact, all the prisons were searched for him, through the influence of Gov. (now Sénator) Vance. It has re- quired twenty-four. years to ascertain the true story. At the same time the com- mission was sent her she was first made acquainted with the facts toid Gov. Cald- well in 1873. 10,000 PAIRS Boys’ Pants at Famous, 69¢ up to 85 — — — — — THE ARMY OF INCAPABLES. A Complaint From England That is Equally Pertinent Here. From the London Queen. If in this age of institutions a hospital for incapables were started it would ruina millionaire to supply the necessary funds.

Yet perhaps it is with single women that we find the full misery of incapability; the smallest.examination into the ranks of those who are obliged to maintain themselves brings to light a flood ot dis- tress which can hardly be imagined with- out being seen. It was but the other day that I heard of alady who had tried to earn ber living by teaching and who was reduced to the most miserable straits of poverty simply by incapability. Her edu- ‘ation had been only moderately good, and her attempt to secure a situation in high-class school was, of course, unsuccessful, She advertised as a governess in a private family and was offered a situa- tion in which she was required to look af- ter and mend the children’s clothes.

Nor is this incapability to be found only have quite as much to answer for. The following case came under my notice only a few months ago: A lady up- | plied to one of the London societies for a dressinaker who would come in and work by the day, and was given the name of a woman whom she was told that it would be a charity to employ. She sent for her, telling her to be sure and be at the house at 8 o’clock; instead of which the woman did not put in an ap- pearance until 9 o’olock, and then de- manded ber breakfast in addition to the dinner, tea and haif-crown which had been already promisec. This was granted, but when the work was given to her she 3 n he We — ee | was found to be utterly incapable of doing anything without the minutest directions, the lady being actually obliged to stay at home that she might save her things from being spoilt by bad work. How is it-possible to help people of this kind? These are but few and common- place examples of a fact which is pressing upon us more and more heavily every year. We see distress on the one side, terrible and unmistakable, and on the other a few industrious people who are never out of work, but, on the contrary, are besieged with more orders than they have time to carry out. Why is this, unless it be that our social system is weighed down with a burden of incapa- bles? „ BERRT WALL!“ overcoats, style, at he latest dude FAMOUS. A Great Flight of Hawks. Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun. Tne recent invasion of hawks in Bay Hundred, Talbot County, causes much comment and not a little speculation as to the cause of the flight of the birds from some otherregion. Mr. Frank G. Wright- son of Bay Hundred, a very conservative man, says: I don’t like to say it, but I honestly believe there were not only thousands, but amillion and perhaps mill- ions, of these birds flying in flocks northward up the eastern shore of the Chesapeake on Friday and Saturday.” Mr. Wrightson remembers another, but a much smaller flight of hawks over the same section some twenty years ago. These hawks were somewhat smaller in body than the big hen-hawk that lives and thrives in this country, but the head, plumage and talons were like those of our native hawks. In their flight northward they met about the mouth of the Choptank River astrong north wind, which drove them shoreward. They did not come far into the interior, but hovered about the headlands and shores of the bay and the broad estua- ries, and seemed to be ravenous for food. Forty hours covered the period of their visit from the coming of the advance- guard to the leaving of the stragglers, and on Sunday not a hawk could be seen. Had the people been prepared for this incur- sion they could have killed, in the various neighborhoods where the birds came afield, at least 10,000 hawks. As it is, the number slain will not exceed 2,000 which, atthe bounty Of 50 cents per head, will take 71,000 in cash from the county treasury and disbribute it among alarge number of hawk-hunters. Mr. Levin H. North, a constable in Tilgbman’s Island, did the biggest day’s work reported thus far. In a few hours he killed eighty-eight hawks, and got his M4 bounty for their heads from the County Commissioners to-day. Mr. William F. May, amerchant of Tilghman’s Island, says he missed his opportunity in not hav- ing in store a supply of gunpowder. He sold out early in the day his limited stock at regular prices, and could have sold ten times the quantity at corner“ prices. Some people paid as high as 25 cents fora charge of powder to shoot a 50-cent hawk. If the whole million of hawks had been killed, the bounty payments would have seriously embarrassed the county. A movement will be made at the next ses- sion of the General Assembly to repeal or reduce the hawk’s head bounty. — — OUR great line of Men's and Youths’ $12.50 Business Suits beats the world. FAMOUS. The Noble Art of Self-Defense. From the Pall Mall Gazette. An incident displaying the value of cal- isthenics to the fair sex was wiinessed at Highbury Station about 11 p. m. one night last week. A young lady, the wife of a well-known athlete, was making her way up the stairs to the train when she was rudely accosted by a half-drunken man, who made several impertinent remarks and finally attempted to kiss her. This was too much for the youthful British matron, whose training had been of a kind to prompt reliance upon the muscles of the arm, rather than those of the throat. Sweeping off her glove, she turned round and dealt the offender a blow between the eyes which fairly knocked him off his feet, and reeling backwrd he rolled from the top to the bottom ofthe stairs ina series of somersaults painful enongh to convince him that cantion in his amatory advances might be worth observation in the future. A curious feature in connec- tion with this incident is that the lady in question is the third sister who has per- formed the feat of knocking down an in- sulter. Oneofthe family, a mere girl, was pursued on Blackheath by an unfor- tnnate tramp till she couldrun nofurther, when she promptly floored her persuer; and the other similarly dealt with a scoundrel who laid hands on herin Rich- mond. We understand that all these young ladies were practiced gymnasts, and the value to women of such training coula not be better exemplified than by the foregoing facts.

AN ATTEMPT TO INSPECT THE HULK OF THE PROVIDENT BANK. Receiver Thompson Asks Leave to Institute Suit Against the Directory of the Defunct Lank—A Sample Transaction Presented to Judge Lubke—Where the Deposits Went—No One Speaks for the Prospective Defendants—A Creditor’s Unfeeling Al- lusions to the Conduct and Failure of the Bank. This morning a half-dozen lawyers, all in pleasant moods, gathered in Judge Lubke’s court-room to argue the Provident Bank case. Until the arrival of the Court they sat about the jury chairs, pocked their feet on the tables and railing, chatted and poked fun at one another. Younger lawyers, still wearing last night’s white ties, and daintily balancing Shining silk hats between thumb and fore- finger, addressed the Court in ponderously titled suits praying judgments for $15.65 (fifteen dollars and sixty-five cents), with interest accrued to date, and the pay- merc of the costs incurred in the proceedings. he next friends of a great many people were given a hearing before the Court, in a great many cases through the medium of these ris- ing legal lights. The Consolidated Mutual Life and Death Benefit Association of the Western Hemisphere, and similar grand insti- tutions having for their objects the alleviation of the condition of mankind generally, were given hearings in particular cases of widows whose claims for compensation for their be- reavement they, through their attorneys, resisted. After these matters were disposed of, and several male persons over the age of 21 years, of good moral character, as shown by a scrutinizing 45-second cross- examination into their careers previous to 10 a. m. to-day were securely nestled under the wings of the great American Eagle, on giving the Courta sworn assurance that they possessed no bomb- throwing proclivities and were ready to con- cede that the old sweat-of-the-brow theory is still in effect, the case of C. S. Greeley vs. The Directors of the Provident Bank was reached. This is a case in which about 4,000 PERSONS, were taken from them the collapse of the defunct bank, are interested to the extent ot one- fourth of their deposits in this institution. Fact by fact the evidences of crookedness and dereliction in the conduct of this bank cropp- ed out after the failure. The legal analysis of the job was slow and newspaper inquiry met with little encouragement. The proceedings this morning which occupied the attention of the court were instituted by H. A. Haeussler, stockholders and creditors, who was well one of the represented in the $900,000 which was not found in the vaults when the bank closed. Since the failure, Receiver W. H. Thompson declared two dividends amounting to 75 cents onthe dollar. The un- fortunate depositors were almost reconciled to the loss of the balance of their deposits, when Mr. Haeussler made a written demand on the receiver to institute civil suit against the directors for the balances, basing the justice of the request on the evidences of dereliction in the management of the bank. The petition asks for instructions on the subject of insti- tuting suit against the following gentlemen, who were directors of the bank at its failure: Jas. S. Garland, Thos. H. Swain, Chas. H. Smith, Charles B. Greeley, George Scott, W. . Mutlen, B. S. Adams, A. B. Thomson and Wim. E. Guy. ; The following isa brief account of the his- tory of the directory, as given in the petition. A BRIEF HISTORY. The bank was incorporated January 21, 1884, and at the first election Jas. S. Garland, David B. Gould, Chas. B. Greeley, Wim. E. Guy, Fred W. Kefferstein, Wm. I'. Mullen, George scott, Thomas II. Swain and Almon B. Thom son were selected as directors at the incorpo- ration ofthe bank. Atthe first election, Janu- ary 14, 1885, Hudson Elliot was added to the Board, butonthe Iith he declined to serve. In May, 1885, H. G. Brookings sat in the bourd to fill the vacancy caused by the withdrawal of Gould, who disposed of stock. In September, 1885, Mr. Kefferstein died and Chas. H. Smith was elected In October Mr. Brookings resigned, but the vacancy was not filled, according to the bank records. On January 13 the Board who are now prospective defendants to the proposed suit were elected. The capital stock of the institution was $200,000, paid for at the time of the incorpora- tion with the exception of $7,900, a note for which was subsequently to $3,800, whose savings by 1118 reduced making the paid-up capital $196,200. During this eriod the transfer of the Provident Savings Institution to the Provident Savings Bank took place, an occurrence in its history which Mr. — now refers to with persistent and insinuating uncharitableness as „THIS Swor.’’ To show the grounds for instituting the suit against the directory, the receiver acting on the demand of the stockholders, a bistory of the Anchor Milling travsaction was presented to Judge Lubke. A portion of the assets of the Provident Sav- ings Institution were delivered to the Provi- dent. Savings Bank, including three promissory notes of the Anchor Milling Company. The first was of March 18, 1882, for $35,000; the sec- ond of July 16, 18383, for $25,000, and the third of October 6, 1883, tor $5,000. The notes were not formally indorsed by the Provident Sav- ings Institution at the time of the transfer, but were included among the general assets soid and delivered tothe Provident Savings Bank with the knowledge of the milling company. On March 6, 1885, the bank took the milling company’s note for $55,000 in return for money loaned, and on May 17 took a second note under the same circumstances for $10,000. No part of the principal of these notes was paid at the time of the failure, nor has any part been paid since. The interest was puid to June 30, 1886. The milling company was also indebted to the bank in the sum of $15,000 on an overdrawn account on checks and other- wise. The bank held the drafts ana bills of exchange drawn by the milling company for $150,000 at the Commencement of the sult. These had been bought by the bank. The proceeds were credited to the milling company. Of this amount of exchange $45,000 still remains unpaid and uncollected. On May 3, 1883, the Anchor, Milling Company was indebted to Geo. D. Capen $64,530.29 0h a promissory note secured by a deed of trust. This was purchased by the bank May 6, 1886, for $64,530.29. Prior to its fallzre the Provident Bank took a note from the Anchor Milling Com- pany for F100, 000, secured by a deed of trust on all the milling property, secondary and subject to the Capen deed. This was intended as collateral security for any indebtedness which, at the time of its ex- ecution or thereafter, was or might be owing by the company, or hepeafter to the bank. The Capen mortgaged property has since been sold for $00,000, leaving $15,281.38, after paying off this mortgage, for the payment of the sec- ond mortgage. This left the loss to the bank on these shady transactions over $100,000. THE LAW the bank was organized that ‘no corporation — shail oan its money to any individual corporation or company to become at any time indebted to itin asum exceeding 25 per cent of its capital stock actually paid in or permit a line of loans to any greater amount to any individual or corporation; nor shall any such corporation receive or hold the name of any director or any officer of the same as principal or security orendorse upon paper to an amount greater than 2 per cent of its capital stock, unless such borrower deposit with such eorporation collateral security orexecute a deed of trust or mortgage upon real estate or personal prop- erty which at the timetis assessed or assessable ior taxable purposes ata valuation 10 per cent in excess of such loan or indebtedness and above the limitations in this section provided that the provisions in this section shall not be construed as in any wise to interfere with the rules and regulations of any clearing house as sociation in this State in relerence to the daily balance between banks. It is represented that the Anchor Milling Company atthe date of the suit and long be- fore and ever since was wholly insolvent, and the balance of sad indebtedness canvot be collected, nor any part thereof, trom ‘the Anchor Milling Company, which has ceased business and has no property. The rules ot the bank required tue directory to meet daily for the purpose of pass- ing on such transactions, in which an attempt was made to shield depositors and stockholders by empowering two direct- ors ou an Opposing vote to fustrate any fluan cial scheme which threatened the security of the interests supposed te be represented in the Board. under whith * ides THE PROCEEDINGS.

Albert J. Brooks, aman of good family and ample means, brought his life to a close at 1:30 this morning by placing a 38-caliber Colt re- volver to the right side of his head and speed- ing a little leuden messenger through bis brain. Brooks originally came from Balti- more, Md., where his father died afew years ago, leaving him a handsome fortune. His family there are of high social standing, and a brother of his, who resides there, is reputed to be a millionaire. Brooks served in the late war as a Lieutenant, and was commonly called ‘*Colonel’’ by his associates. Some eight years ago he came here with his wife and has re- sided here ever since. He was a tall, hand- some man about 46 years of age, and was most gentlemanly in his deportment. There was a great deal of the sport in his character, and he was fond of gaming and a bigh liver. He would speculate on anything. Sometimes his speculations were successful and more times they were not. He wouid bet on a horse race, play agame ef poker or speculate in grain or other things. His losses were never felt much, however, as he had an income of about 3500 a month and never went beyond it. MR. BROOKS was a man who went on periodical sprees. tie would not drink anything for six months or a year and then he would go on a spree which would last for weeks. About a fort- night ago he went off on one of these sprees, and had not been at home since Wednesday morning. He boarded with his wife at the Merchant’s Hotel on Twelfth and Olive streets, and that morning he told his wife, she states, that he feared drink would drive him insane. She says he also stated that he would rather be dead than to have to enter an insane asylum. Last night he vis- ited John Brashear’s saloon, No. 1220 Pine street,and remained there until the place was closed up at 1:30 this morning. Mr. Brashear says that Brooks did not play a card nor take a drink the whole time he was in his place. Tbe man was thoroughly sober, hav- ing got over his spree, and did not seem the least nervous or excited. A discussion took place in the saloon about men ‘‘playing in hard lueck,’’ and one man remarked that there was a wayto change one’s luck when it be- came that way. He was asked what it was and replied, ‘‘Jump off the bridge.“ ou had better first tie a weight to yourself, though, to make sure you will sink,’’ suggested another. Mr. Brashear remarked that talk of that sort was all non- sense, and that he believed he would close the pluce. „don't know that it is nonsense, John,’’ said Brooks; ‘‘butinstead of jumping off the bridge if I was tired of life I would place some- thing to my head, pull the trigger and in an instant the candle of life would be ex- tinguished.’’ ‘There was something tn the manner in which he said this that Mr. Brashear did not like. After the saloon had been closed Brooks left Brashear and his companions and started east, they walking west. He was apparently in the best of humor. Brooks had only gone east about one hundred feet when they heard A PISTOL REPORT. They rushed back, to find him on the sidewalk in a dying condition, he having sent a bullet crashing through his brain. in afew minutes he was dead, and his body was removed from the City Dispensary, to which he was taken for treatment, to the Morgue. His wife was notified and was almost distracted with grief. At 2 o'clock in the morning she visited the Morgue to view his remains. An inquest was heid on the body to-day, but no cause for his suicide could be assigned, except that his wife believed he kille himself while crazed by drink, bis spree, in her opinion, having af- fected his mind. A verdict of suicide was of co urse returned. — — — — — I von have rooms for rent advertise in the SUNDAY POSsT-DISPATCH. — — — A SERIOUS BLUNDER, Two Brutal Murderers Allowed to Go Free Because Not Indicted. By Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. BosToN, October 8.—At about 4:30 p. m. Thursday George and Freeman Cox were ar- rested and brought to police headquarters. of them, at least, was supposed to be guilty of murder, and when questioned re- garding his arrest he said that he was glad that it had happened, and that he was tired of knocking about under cover’’ for such a long time. Notwithstanding this open admis- sion on George’s part, he and his brother were free men an hour after their arrest, and left the police headquarters with the full con- sent of the authorities. The circumstances of the case are peculiar: Qn the evening of January 4, 1886, John Bovle, an old resident of Calais, Me., was spending a sociable eveningin a drinking- house near Calais in company with the Coxes. Boyle bad a sum of money in his possession. After spending two hours in the saloon the three men went away together. That was the last time that Boyle was seen alive. A few days later George Cox left Calais. Freeman remained for some time, until he was charged with stealing a horse, and then he too disappeared. The disappear- ance of Boyle remained a mystery until the early part of November, 1856, when his body was found in a mill-dam near Calais, not far from the saloon. The body was badly decomposed, but it was plain that both hands had been tied. The discovery ofthe body strengthened the feel- ing against the Cox boys. On November 2, 1886, Superintendent Cor- nish of Pinkerton’s agency in this city, re- ceived a telegram from City Marshal Tarbox of Calais, asking his assistance to capture George Cox, forthe murder of John Boyle. It was suspected that he was employed on one of the coast vessels running intothis port. In Jan- uary Mr. Cornish received another letter from Marshall Tarbox, saying that the Grand-jury would meet ina few days, and would proba- bly find a bill against both of the brothers. On March 25, Superintendent Cornish received another letter frow Calais, wherein the marshal replied to 1 ques- tion that had been asked him regarding a vessel, the Bessie Simpson, in which the brothers were thought to have sailed, In this letter there was not a word re- garding the action of the Grand-jury, and Superintendent Cornish supposed the broth- ers had been indicted, Five or six days ago word was received at the Pinkerton agency that the men were suspected to be on the schooner Delhi, which was then coming into port. Afterward it was discovered that two men, who answered their description, had sailed on the Delhi under the name of Magee. The men were arrested Thursday afternoon in the top story of the dwelling 318 North street. Soon afterward Superintend- ent of Police Small received a telegram from Marshal Hutchins, Tarbox’ successor, saying that the Grand-jury had failed to find an in- dictment against elther of the men. Nothing could be done but release the captives, and they were accordingly let go, to their great astonishment. The reasons for their non- indictment and the strange method of pro- cedure on the part of the Calais police officials are not yet explained.

Felix Lehbold, a job printer, residing at No. 309 South Second street, who was arrested on Thursday evening for participating in athree- cornered fight between bimself, Philip Rhetin- feld and Louls Welbelm, says that on Tmhurs- day evening Rheinfeld came home drunk and atteinpted to enter his (Leh- bold’s) apartments, and was refused admission, the door being locked. Rheinfeid kicked down the door and assauited Lehbold and his wife with ashovel. Wilbelm, a neigh- bor, hearing the noise, entered the room and inquired the cause of the fight. Rheinfeld cursed Wilhelm and cut a gash in his head witha hatehet, when Wußelm gave him a push and he fell backward over a low balus- trade down-stairs, receiving a few slight bruises, but not fatal ones, as has been stated, as Rheinteld is now at his home walking about.

FUNERAL OF MOTHER MARY OF THE SA- CRED HEART FROM THE GOOD SHEPHERD. Solemn High Mass Celebrated by Vicar- General Erady—An Impressive Cere- monial—Final Offices by the Religious of the Order—A Woman in the Choir Gallery Faints—The Remains Accom- panied te the Grave by Choir Sisters Under an Episcopal Dispensation—The Interment at Calvary. The funeral of the Mother Proyincial of the House of the Good Shepherd occurred this worning from the Mother House of the Prov- ince at Seventeenth and Pine streets. Solemn high mass for the dead was sung -in the chapei of the institution, which had been draped with black. The casket containing the remains of the Mother rested in front of the altar, between the seats occupied by the religious of the house. The remains were re- moved to the chapel this morning, and up to8 O clock the chanting of prayers for the dead was continued by the choir religious. These Sisters of the upper class of the order wore each a black veil, white linen guimp, white serge dress, with mantle and train, blue girdle, white ivory rosary, crucifix at the belt and a silver heart suspended about the neck. . THE CASKET was covered with flowers sent by secular friends of the dead Mother. Before the mass began Sisters of Charity, Sisters of the Poor, Sisters of St. Joseph and Sisters of St. Mary entered the chapel. Novices of the Good Shepherd took places back of the religious of the order, the Class of Preservation, as the children cared for by the order are called, sat in the gallery to the right of the sanctuary. Underneath them, behind a screen, sat the penitents of the House. The Class of the Magdalens occupled the seats to the left of the sanctuary, and the gallery above them was filled with friends of the institution. The benches to the south of the sanctuary, and the choir seats were also filled with friends. The celebrant was Very Rev. Vicar-General Brady, Father Hennessey of St. John’s Chureh ofliciated as deacon and Rev. F. II. Kernion, S. J., as sub- deacon. The other priests who assisted the celebrant were Chancellor Van der Sanden, Father Charles Ziegler of St. Mal- achy’s Church, Father Phelan of the West- ern Waten man, Father Jackson of Clayton, Father Harty of St. Bridget’s, Rev. Sprick, 8. J., and W. V. Richardson, C. few minutes after 8 o’ciock the upper half of the screen door in front of the altar was opened by the Sister Assistant, and the celebrant entered the sanctuary followed by the deacons and acolytes. The mass sung was the Gregorian chant, under the musi- cal direction of Prof. M. A. Gilsinn, organist of the old College Church. After consecration Miss Libbie Macarty sang Bee- thoven’s ‘‘Pie Jesu Domine Dona Eis Requiem,’’ soprano solo. After mass Miss Eliza Coleman sang Campana’s prayer, De Protundis,’’ descriptive of a soul crying to God trom the depths. For otifertory Alles Adelaide Kalkman, contralto, sang Perziani’s prayer, ‘‘Ah, Madre Dulcissima.’’ The ren- dition of these numbers was in accord with the spirit of the most solemn ceremonial. The house was still as death during the entire mass save for the utterances of the celebrant and the responses. THE SERMON was preached by Rev. F. Moeller, S. J., Presi- dent of St. Louis University. He commented on the speed with which sorrow had been sub- stituted in the house for joy; how quickly death had followed the celebration of the Mother's twenty-five years’ residence there. the wonderful of the dead woman, how she had given up all vain things and had in her youth consecrated herself wholly tothe good work which engaged her to her latest hour. From this he deducted a lesson. Those thus conse- crated put themselves wholly into the bands ofthe Lord and were given opportunity for great and satifying work, the reward for which they would receive in due seuson. The sermon, especially in the eulogistic periods was eloguent and full of feeling. Tears fell from every eve, and the religious Sisters of the deceased wept uncontrolied. After the sermon, the choir sang the Libera, and the celebrant then biessed the cas ket. Novices distributed candles to the religious and novices in the chapel, which were lighted as the celebrant retired. On the return of the Vicar-General to the sanctuary to recite the prayers tor the dead the cundles were ex- tinguished, The Sister Assistant removed all the flowers from the casket except a large of white flowers, a stur and a ; ot and tenderly wiped away all traces of the moist leaves from the pol- ished wood. On the final retirement of the celebrant from the altar the candles in the hands of the Sisters were relighted. AlLarose, and under the direction of the Sister Assist- ant filed out of the chapel bearing their can- cies, and chanting wierdly as they went. Their voices were tuilof the sorrow they felt, trembling, quavering voices, punctuated with sobs as nowand then a religios, overcome with a sense of their loss, would bury her face in her book. A woman in the choir gallery fainted and had to be carried out into the fresh air, where she quickly recov- ered. There was no mimic sorrow in their miseries; it was full of throbbing earnestness. THE PALL BEARERS took the casket from the chapel and carried it to the hearse, the following acting in that ca- pacity: William Druhe, Edward T. Farish, Louis Fusz, Frank Gaiennie, A. Geisel, . Haydel, Wilson P. Hunt, Pat- rick kirby and Judge Daniel Dillon. Considerable difficulty was experienced in conveying the casket tothe hearse, through the narrow doors and down the abrupt stair. wuy from the chapel floor tothe first floor of the building. The street was finally reached and the double line, religious and novices, between which the casket was carried, closed up. The Sister Assistant stationed at the door to the convent called forward the forty choir, religious and visiting Mothers, whom she had assigned to actompany the remains to the Krave, under the dispensation granted by Archbishop Kenrick. It is not customary for the religious to leave the convent, but out of regard for the deceased the Archbishop granted the permission. The Sisters chosen were the elder members of the order. As they stepped forward to the door when called by the Sister Assistant they dropped their black vells over their faces and passed out with heads bowed and hands hidden in the folds of their serge dresses. Sergt. Garvin, with a detail of five police, kept the carriages in line andthe crowd in check. The religious were placed in eleven carriages, three other car- riages being furnished for the pall-bearers and friends. The interment was in the lot owned by the order in Calvary Cemetery. — roses, THE Guaranteed City Circulation of THE SUNDAY MORNING POST-DISPATCH EXCEEDS THAT OF ANY COMPETITOR. — ——— — ° IT WON’T TAKE MUCH, Sonth Carolina Confederates to Petition for State Aid, By Telegraph to the FPosr-Dis raren.

By Telegraph to the Posr-Disraren. WILKESBARRE, Pa., October 8.—An internal war has broken out in the big Knights of Labor Assembly of Wilkesbarre, which threatens the disintegration ofthe assembly. It is one of the oldestand most powerful in the coal regions. It was foundéd by Master Workman Powderly himself, aud prospered under his care. The trouble is of recent origin. Ata stated meeting of the society, held two weeks ago, the strike in the Lehigh region was bfoughtup. It was voted to appoint a com- mittee to solicit aid for the striking miners in the Lehigh region. This did not satisfy some ofthe members. Charles Lavin, a tailor of this city, made a speech in which he denounced the two other parties and said the time had come when labor should as- sert itself. He therefore moved that a call be issued fora labor convention to be held in this city. Mr. Hopkins, foreman for Flick & Thomas, the extensive hardware merchants, seconded the motion. Afteradebate which lasted until past midnight, the motion was voted down. A few days afterward the Wilkesbarre Leader, whose editor is a Knight, came out against Hopkins, Lavin and others for their attempt to drag the Knights of Labor organization into politics. This attack only widened the breach. Lavin’s party got to- gether and issued a call for a labor convention to be heid in this city on Monday next. A part of the call reads as follows: Tue promises made by representatives of the old parties have not been fulfilled. Every- where the struggle for existence is becoming more intense and bitter and the outlook for wealth-producers more hopeless. Pauper- ism, crime and insanity are increasing much faster than the population, and all this in spite of the fact that our Divine Creator, in His infinite goodness, has made ample provision for the needs of all His children during their residence on earth, and in spite of the fact that the productiveness of labor has increased until in most branches of industry one man is able, with the help of machinery, to produce in the same space of time as much as fifty men could produce afew years back.

Do you believe they would leave their mines to stand idle because the men wanted an advance of 8 per cent upon starvation wages, or wished to belong to our order? Then the working miners and laborers, and all other classes of labor, both skilled and unskilled, could demand, not8 per cent, but all the wealth that they produce by their hard labor and the sweat of their brows.’’ ADVERTISEMENTS inserted in THE SUNDAY MOKNING POST-DISPATCH reach a larger number of city readers THAN IN ANY OTHER PAPER. ARRANT NONSENSE, The Story of an Alleged Government Printer Regarding Cleveland’s Speeches. By Telegraph to the PosT-DISPATCcH. WASHINGTON, D. C., October 8.—Pnublic Printer Benedict, in answer to an inguiry as to the truth of the report that President Cleveland had printed at the Government Printing Office all of the speeches to be de- livered on his Western and Southern trips sald: The story as given in a Baltimore paper, is the statement of a self-confessed liar. The informant of the correspondent says he is employed in this office and was sworn to secrecy before he was given a single ‘take’ of copy, yet he does not hesitate to furnish for publication a detailed account of the alleged transaction. The description of the routine commonly followed in handling con- fidential matter in this office is ridiculously inaccurate. The statement that I gave out the copy and received the proof is absurd. When Mr. Rounds was Public Printer he madea grand splurge whenever he received a bit of confidential matter. I understand he claimed to have actually set type on several of the President’s messages to Congress. This was all done tor cheap buncome. Whenever such matter is received here it is handed at once to the foreman of printing, who cuts it up and has it distributed among the regular force of men in his division. No one gets more than a few lines and in consequence no one has any idea as to what the matter is he is setting. The proefsare gathered by an as- sistant foreman and the forms are locked in a big vault constructed forthe purpose. There Is hardly a day that there is not a confidential job in the office, yet no special precautions are necessary to prevent premature publication. The story that the printers engaged in this work are bound by an oath of secrecy is ar- rant nonsense. Ifaman cared little enough for the obligation of his duty to violate the confidence reposed in him, he would hardly pause to consider oaths.’’ ‘*Did the President send the manuscript to his speeches here to be printed before he started West?’’ Mr. Benedict hesitated a moment and then repiied: Jam not at liberty to say what con- fidential copy has been received by me. ‘*Youdo not then wish to deny the story that the speeches were printed nere?“ No, for the reason I have given you. I will say, however, that there is a reguiar allot- ment of my annual appropriation for printing and binding for the White House. If this work had been ordered it would have been paid for from that allotment. This statement that the President revises his proofs and cuts them up go that they have to be reset las not true. He furnishes as clean copy as comes into the office and makes few corrections in his proof. — — — —— — Ir you wish to sell real estate advertise in the SUNDAY PoST-DISPATCH.,. FORD’S FLIGHT. An Alabama Defaulter Leaves His Bonds- men in the Lurch, By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatcnu. BREwTON, Ala., October 8.—The flight of Dr. J. T. B. Ford for the second time, when he had faithfully promised his friends to answer the charges against him in court, renews the sensation which accompanied the first an- nouncement of his defaications. For many years the doctor had been a prominent figure inthe politics of South Alabama. He was courtly in address, had the manner of agentle- man, and ingratiated himself intothe best cir- cles, both of society and of politics. In 1878 he was elected Superintendent of Education for Ezambtie County, anil held the place until the fall of 1834. About that time he was offered a prominent Consulship by President Arthur, but he de- clined to accept it. Sbortly afterwards he madeatrip to Mobile and there disappeared, having with him over $5,000 of the school funds.

THE BALTIMORE RING NEW YORK “WORLD Excited and Wide-Spread Discussion—The Whole Story Not Told—Prospects of Fraud and Violence at the Polls—The Bosses Squirming—kEfforts of the Reform Criminal | League to Purify Folities—Ihe Workers. By Telegraph tothe Posr-Disraren. BALTIMORE, Md., October 8.—The article in the New York WORLD on the political situation in this city created a profonnd sensation here. It was, indeed, the talk of the town, and every copy of the paper brought to Baltimore was sold within an hour after the arrival of the train. Many persons paid 25 cents each fora second-hand copy. The facts as given by the WORLD have caused a wide-spread and some- what excited discussion. Nothing could ex- ceed the rage of the acknowledged members of the ring when they beheld the ‘‘Newgate Calendar’’ in the Worip. Yet, with the ex- ception of one or two minor errors in indtvid- ual cases, there was not a statement made, not a fact set forth in the expose which was not either as well known and noto- rious here as is the very existence of the City Kall, or else was to be substantiated by the public criminal records of thecity. In- deed, long and remarkable as was the list of criminals, it hardly told the whole story. The ring does not pretend to deny the existence of these facts, because most of them rest upon record proof, but in imitation of the timid, stupid and corrupt apologists of the Tweed regime, they unite in a great outcry against „these slanderers of the city,’’ as they are pleased to term the Independents and the New York WORLD. Thatthe facts stated are true they don’t deny, yet they call it a ‘‘base slander’’ and to publish them a lie. The greatest danger the Independents have to fear is fraud or violence at the elections, but the Reform League is steadily perfecting arrange- ments by which their fear of that is growing less day by day. With reference tothe Federal office-holders, the attitude of the Independent Democrats IS SIMPLY THIS: They are willing to condone the wrongs of the past, as they credit them largely to Mr. Gorman, but one thing they demand—that such orders shall be given as shall keep the Federal oftice- holders at their desks. These office-holders are the ringleaders in all elec- tion crimes perpetrated here. Without their help the ring cannot secure the commission of asufficient amount of fraud or violence to make the resulteven doubtful. The people of this city resented bitterly the interference of Federal office-hoiders in their local clec- tions during the Republican Administration, and they claim the right to be free from such intolerable interference now, under different auspices of law and promise, It is a stubborn and angry fight, in which the Independents are engaged,. As one of them, Mr. William L. Marbury, a leading lawyer, expressed it to-day: „We are Bo yee for the recovery of the primar American citizenship, the right o act. 9 On the one side is arrayed the greater part of the brains, courage and chataaet of the city, and on the other as evil an army of placemen and crim- male as can be found in any civilized commu- nity, but with an extraordinary politioal ma- chine t behind them. What the Independents ask to the Federal office-holders is very — and itis onl rtain: if either just. One thing is very iggins, Thomas or Rasin 2 caught, as any one of them may be, at any of his old tricks at this election there will be such proof of it laid before the country as shall r make a vacaney in the Fed N. service, e people of this city have en- ead oe dg, t nove long n 4s 0 LD 'S Capt.

The killing by Burke and Kennedy of Cur- ran recails another incident of the way the elections of our city are conducted. Burke and Kennedy at the time of the homicide were election judges. ‘The only reason assigned for this man was purely because they during the coming elections. The elections beretofore have been a systematic fraud to defeat the will of the people, but the public sentiment is so strong during this pres- ent Campaign that their evil purposes, so far, have been thwarted. SOMETHING GLORIOUS. Col. Charles Marshall, who was Gen. Lee’s chiet of staff, said: The recent action taken by the WORLD is in my estimation something glorious. The idea of a community-complain- ing about a journal’s saying whatisthe whole truth is something disgraceful. They are not ashamed to commit crime in any shape or form, but they are ashamed and, I might say, afraid of the exposure. If such isthe case, why should not every friend of a decent Gov- ernment be right in sustaining the WORLD in pointing out offenses, if even of its own party. The exposure of theircrimes will be the only way possible to bring such persons to terms. I do not beheve for my part that any good citizen of Baltimore would be content that our city should have the reputa- tion of not being controlled by criminals and by those who enjoy the fruits of crimes at our elections, when in fact they know the reputa- tion is not deserved. If we have criminuais in oflice, and unconvicted criminals who are put in office by their less fortunate friends, I think it should be known everywhere. content to be governed by what they call tried Democrats, but I am not willing to be governed by tried and convicted Democrats.’’ Mr. Christian Devries, President of the National Bank of Baitimore, who was recently asked to be the Democratic candidate for Mayor, but declined, said: The WoRLD speaks of corruption in the elections in ourcity: There is nota word of truth init. It is not a corruption of the Dem- ocratic party, but a corruption of matter ac- cumulated by Republicans of the blackest dye, and placed in the hands of arepresentative of an outside paper for publication. Itis not the Republican ward politicians or ringleaders, but some of Baltimore’s leading lawyers who have concocted such ridiculous statements. It looks to meas if all this matter had been paid for, as no Democratic paper in my esti- mation would publish such reports on any other condition. Other prominent regulars expressed them- selves in about the same language, whilea host of Independent Democrats and Kepubli- cans indorsed alltbat the WORLD hassaid, and hoped that the exposures would be kept up until relief was obtained. wishes «© Your Moxie is all you claim.

MUCH CRY AND LITTLE WOOL, Commission Merchants Claim the Decline in Trade is Due to Fraud. The annual wool-scare has materialized. There is strong competition between foreign and domestic wool producers in the markets of the East. About one-third the wool used by Eastern mills comes from abroad paying a high rate of duty. For several years past there has been an annual dispute between the importers and the Custom-house oflicials in New York and Boston over the classilication of certain imported wools. Two years ago Donskoi wools were in dispute. Last year there wus a dispute over scoured wools. The importers were naturally anxious to lower the classification on these wools and reduce the duty on them. The Treasury Department has twice stepped in and straightened out the question of classification. Now some of the Eastern jobbers and the Western commission men think they have 11 new cause 01 complaint. This time the subject is combing wools. These wools make up about one-third of the wool trade of St. Louis. They are used altogether for making worsteds, and only Eastern mills are inthe market for them. In the spring and early summer Eastern woolen-mills had their agents out here looking for combing wools. They were held then at 27 cents. Suddenly the demand fell off. The price fell with the demand but stili Western commission men found it Impossible £0 dispose of their stock. Eastern jobbers too found themselves with a large stock of Western wools which it was imposst- ble to market at reasonable tigures. Mean- time the trade in manufactured woolen goods was reported livelier than it had been for vears. An investigation, it was claimed, devel- oped the fact that manufacturers were using imported wools. The wool men FIGURED ON THE SITUATION for a time and came to the conclusion that some underhand work was going on in the New York Custom-house. If foreign were selling at the prices quoted in London, they could not pay full duty American wools in the markets of the or 22 cents in the London market, a St. Louis broker had a letter from the East, the imported wool had sold there at 22 cents. The St. Louis commission men had been look ing all about falling off in their trade. They seized upon this explanation and immediately set up a cry of fraud. Some of the best informed wool men on the street say that this claim is utterly ridiculous. Said one of them this morning I fraudulent importations were the cause of the late dullness in woo], receipts at United Stutes ports should show a vast increase over the same period ayearago. But the contrary is the real fact. Importations, compared with a year ago, show afalling-off of 12 per cent since January 1. This includes non-compet- ing carpet wools, which have slightly in- creased owing to the improvement in the domestic carpet trade. The falling-off on com peting wools is therefore much greater, the decrease on clothing wools being fully 5S; percent. The stocks of foreign wools now held in Eastern markets are the smallest in years and they are nota disturbing influ- ence. The purchases for America at the late London auctions were very small, besides, and were confined to certain indispensable grades, The true cause ofthe recent depres. sion in wool is over speculative and tight money among manufacturers. At the height of the season wool had been driven up by speculators to a point where goods could not possibly follow and the natural result was a reaction. When wool declined to a reasonable basis, the money markets in the East tightened atatime when u large amount of manufacturing paper falls due and manufacturers, though only lightly stocked, were compelled to buy onthe hand- to-mouth plan and stocks, therefore, accum ulated in first hands. The stiffness of hold- ers, who were caught in the decline, also con- tributed tothe existing state ofthings. The tide at last seems to be turning, however, as money is easing up and confidence is grad- ually returning.’’ Ir you wish to rent a house SUNDAY er DISPATCH. $8.65 BUYS our great Tiger C mau or youth; worth ois. advertise in the heviot Suit for FAMOUS.

NEW YORK, October S.—Lord John Browne of Westport, County Mayo, Ireland, who ar- rived here on the City of. Rome Thursday, large land-owner and represented the County Mayo in Parliament for eleven years. Toa re- porter who called upon him yesterday he said: Ot course, Iam on the side of the land- lords, but I have taken little interest in poli- tics since I left Parliament. Some Irish land- lords would Ike very much to be bought out by their tenants, others, especially the small Jand-owners, have mortgaged their estates 80 heavily that if they sold them at the present reduced price of land, they would have nothing left after paying their indebtedness, and they propose to hold on fora while yet. The landlords have felt the reduction of rents by the judicial process very much. Ofcourse, as a class, they are opposed to homerule, but many of them ad- mit that some measure of home rule will have to be granted. I don't believe that anything like Giladstone’s bill will be passed. The Imperial Government, I' think, will retain control of the military and police forces and of the judiciary. A veto power on the ac- tions of the Irish party, I belie ve, , will also be held by the Imperial P: irliament. In speaking of the Parnellite 3 of Parliament, Lord Browne said that the most of them were very able men. „Of course, he said, there are a few un- Truly ones among them, but Ithink there are, relatively speaking, more able men among them than among their colleagues in the other parties.’’ 3.

Fort Smitu, Ark., October 8.—The execn- tion of Seabron Green and Silas Hampton, two young Indians, took place yesterday after- noon in the jail-yard here, The execution was delayed until nearly an hour after the time set, on account of the necessity of reading the death-warrant to the con demned men through an interpreter. Both of the condemned men were neatly Gressed in dark clothes and ascended the gal- lows without a tremor, and seemed to be un- conscious of the fate awaitingthem. Hamp- ton was accompanied by his spiritual adviser, Rev. J. C. Massey, and Green bythe Rev. Father Smythe. The men were placed on the trap. Hampton saying only a few words, to the effect that he had made his peace with God and was ready to die. Green did not speak at all, and was apparently making strenuous efforts to remain firm to the last. At 3:35 the trap was sprung and the two men dropped simultaneously, dying without a struggle, both their necks being broken. Hampton, up to yesterday morning, had made no confession, but was prevailed upon to speak before he died. He ald he did not know the man he killed, but had been told by aman named Greenwood to kill the white man, which he did, one even ing, While on his way home. HIS victim was an old man named Abner Lloyd, who was camping at the time near Tishomingo in the Chiekasaw Nation. Green’s crime was the killing of three guards who had been placed over him while he was under arrest for selling whisky in the Indian Nation, the bodies of the murdered men being horibly mutilated withan ax. The only ex- use he made was that the men had abused bim while he was in prison. SIKESTON, Mo., May 4, 1885. Messrs. J. F.

He was discharged for having thrown ie wife on a hot stove and holding her there long enoughto inflict injuries which nearly her death. After his dismissal Harper took his wife to Tarrytown and there became enamored of a woman named Alice Carney — eloped with her to this citv, where he has been living with her, giving out that she was his wife.

HOW THE REPORTED SALE OF THE METRO- POLITAN PLAYERS IS REGARDED. al, Opinions of Visiting Fase Ball Men on the Alleged Deal—Carney and McAuliffe Fail to Come to an Agreement—Page Breaks His Record Again—Sporting Mat- ters in General—Base Ball Pick-Ups. The news printed this morning that Presi- dent Byrne of Brooklyn, had purchased the entire playing outfit of the Metropolitan Club, caused much comment among base ball men, some of whom cast doubts upon the reported transaction, while others thought that the report is true. It has been stated for some time past thut fa big deal of some kind has been impending in the vicinity of New York, but all efforts to get at the inside facts in the case have been ex- tremely futile. Thefactthat Byrne has pur- chased the Metropolitan players will not be of much interest in itself except as leading up to subsequent developments; that is to say if the Brooklyn President has really made the dicker as reported. The sale of his players leaves Mr. Wiman his base ball grounds on Staten Island, and the question which naturally suggests itself is What will he do with them?“ A visiting base ball manager suggests that it is quite likely that atrade or a promise of a trade has been made between Mr. Wiman and Mr. Stearns, or between Mr. Wiman and Mr. Nimick of Pittsburg. In either cuse, should a change ofthe kind suggested be made, and one of the big League clubs be transferred to Staten Island, the League will be in a pretty predicament when its make-up for next year will come up. A One-Sided Game. The Browns and the Clevelands played a pretty game of ball yesterday at Sportsman’s ark to a rather poor crowd. Morrison and Caruthers were the pitchers and the Cleves lands could hardly touch the champions’ man. The Browns made 12 runs, 18 hits and 3 errors, and the Clevelands 2 runs, 6 hits and 3 errors.

It was acknowledged at the Polo Grounds yesterday thata deal was going on, but ques- tions as to what it wa caused innocent smiles and the remark: ‘‘Really we don't know; you must see the Association managers. The Association managers in turn put on a“ Won Lung’’ smile that could mean anything or nothing. W hat is said about the deal: Walter Watrous: The Metropolitan wanagers have boughtthe Detroits, and will play thein at Erastina. President Byrne: Everything will come out in time; we are going-to have a club. In the ineantime we will say nothing. Manager Mutrie: Don’t know anything about it; just got into the city. Manager Caylor: Haven’t heard; know what the Metropolitans will do year. Don’t think they are in any deal. Director Joe Gordon: I would like to say something, but can’t. Don’t you know? Good day. President Day: I’m surprised. heard of it. W hat outsiders are sure of: That Mr. Wiman has bought the Detroits. Mr. Byrne has bought the Detroits. President Day, Wiman and Byrne have tormed a stock company and bought the Detroits: the St. Louis, Cincinnati and Brooklyn Clubs will surely go in the League; the Brooklyns have bought out the Metropolitans; the Metropolitans have bought Robinson and Lyons of the Athletics; the Metropolitans have bought out the Brooklyns; the St. Louis Club will be, transferred to Brooklyn, and that they all know more about it than the managers themselves.

HOW PARENTS AND CHILDREN TOGETHER ENJOY THE EXPOSITION. —— ee The Character of the Attendance on Satur- day—Appreciation of the Music and Ix hibits—The Encore Question—To-Night’s Musical Programme—Nuggets From the Naves. There is one fact that is beginning to be no- ticeable at the Exposition,and that is that Sat- urday is not only children’s day and matinee day, but the proportion of workingmen that attend on Saturday afternoon and evening is exceptionally large. These workingmen and their families come, many of them in the afternoon, prepared to stay until the building closes at night, and while they are there they do not miss a single number of Gilmore’s programme. As a rule, children accompany them, and itis refreshing way in which the youngsters are held in check. No exhibitor ean complain of any acts of vandalism, because they come with their parents and stay with them un- der threat of the direst penalty. Wit- ness one case on last Saturday even- ing when an unruly lad of about 11 veuars of age was suspended in the corridor, and soundly caned, much to the gratification of a few bystanders who had been witnesses of the lad’s perverseness. Another thing observable is that these workmen are educated and intelligent, as a prominent ex hibitor of pianos will testify, for on last Saturday a workman, who was evidently a prosperous mechanic, asked permission to try one of the instruments, and astonished every- bodyin the neighborhood by his masterly rendition of Beethoven's Sonata latue- tique.’ to see the * * * Encores are all very well in their way, but the matter is sometimes overdone at the Ex position and Mr. Gilmore's good nature is im- posed upon.

Many people time their visits to the Exposition solely by the published programines and come to hear some one or two nuinbers more particularly than for anything else. In case they should be disappointed some unkind re- marks will be made, and with great propriety. Last night that identical thing came very near taking place, and Mr. Gilmore barely saved his distance in the first part of the evening programme.
