Vessels, Whartboats, Houses and Other Property Carried Away by the Raging Flood—Over $1,000,000 Damage—aA Fiery Horror—Burned to VDeath—A Fatal Fall —Casualties. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 11.—The freshet in the Monongahela River is almost unprecedented and great damage has-been done to the river craft and property all along the river from the headwaters to this city. The suddenness of the rise took the river men entirely una- wares and they were not prepared when the great volume of water burst upon them. Millions of feet of lumber, scores of coal craft, fenées, outhouses and coal tipples have been floating down the swift current for the last eighteen hours. The river at this point is still running, with 21 feet 9 inches on the marks at 9o’clock, but it is reported as stationary with 4 feet at Greensboro, 4 hundred miles above this city. At every point between Greensboro and Pitts- burg the lowlands are under water and the residents have been compelled to live in the upper stories of their houses, and in some cases to seek the hills for safety. Many had not time to remove their goods, as the water rose at the rate of a foot an hour, and at Greensboro 82 teet of a rise was recorded in less than thin#y-four bours. The damage to property canmot be estimated at present, but t will reach aWay up into the thousands. solitary barge which broke away yesterday caused over $5,000 damage, and this is but one little item. So far butone life has been re- ported lost, that of a man named George Getter, w struck by a parted cable and instautl ted. The scene along the river front this morning was one of great excite- ment. T banks were lined with people watchin debris as it was swept down the swift current. The river and coal men were on the alert, fearing that their craft would be torn from its moorings and as fast as one 2 would snap in twain it would be re- 14 y afiother. Occasionally a floating vat, barge or tipple would strike one of the piers of the Smithfieid street bridge and with a loud, grati sound sink from view; again the helpless eraft would pass the bridge in safety and continue on its journey to Cincinnati. The greatest damage to river craft oceurfed between 1: o clock this morning and daylignt. Shortly before 2 nok a large number of barges belonging to Jenkins & Co. came down the river trom the second pool and struck the Smithfield street bridge, the huge barges turning nf over end and breasting the towboat Bar in against the steamer Jacobs. Ever whistle on the river sounded the alarm, and as the livid rays of the electric lights swept ¢ fem side to side across the tur- bulent Sot resented awildsight. Logs, barges and boats were dashed against t. U — a the bridge and snapped lle gs by the he Antena | force of th | oltre | Half one —— D tel — just below the St tthfeld-street bridge and the water dashed ov r it, throwing epray” bl ee mto the air wi le the 4riftwo crush and crackled over the wreck, with the 8 oe noise wh sth adds to the horrors of a flood. About fifteen minutes after the broken barges came down, u number of 414 — of wreckage floated past in the middle of which a shanty boat was swept along with the light on board. The river men shouted and the whistles screamed to get an answer from any person who might be on the boat, but no re ~ gd came, and if the owners were on board an asleep, as some of the river men thought, they were swept down to inevitable destruction. WHARFBOAT SWEPT AWAY. Later the steamer George Wood broke her moorings above the Jenth street bridge and came drifting down the river, but was finally caught and towed to safe harbor. The ropes that held the half-sunken Cincinnati whart- boat, which the owners had been struggling for twelve hours to save, parted about this time, and the lumbersome craft was gg swoptaway. Afew minutes later a O’Neil’s barges and * * -x pieces belong - ing to Joseph Walton & Co. were cut from their moorings and carried down stream. ‘*Polishtown,’’ located along the bank of the Monongahela River between the foot of South Twenty-second and South 2 ee -fourth streets, was ina 80 plight to-da There are ‘nearly seventy-five shanty boa 8 at that pone, occupied by over one hundred and fifty milies, aggregating a population of more than five hundred people. All of these with the exception of about a dozen families cainped last night. Early yesterday morning the trouble began. All day men, women and children were busy pumping water outof the boats and removing — goods to places of safety. By ni ten boat-houses had been sunk or caps — and several carried down the river. The families who moved out piled their goods up along the Lake Erie Rail- road, and then the men dH the best they could to secure the shanties, while the women watched their possess ons by the light ot wood fires. Little children crawled under pieces of furniture and slept on in blissful ignorance of the flood se" its incumbent cares, LEEING FOR SAFETY. 1 on both * — of the river from the point of the bridge to far above the Tenth street bridge scenes of the liveliest description occurred. Many incidents are ludicrous and laughable and some serious enough to,those who were compelled to be the actors in them, but fortunately ne ended in a catastrophe. Frow the Sm@pfield street bridge to a con- siderable distance above the Baltimore & Ohio Depot were a number of boat-houses occupied by families. The sudden rise of the water found these occupants totally un- prepared and a goodly number of semi- amphibious dwellers were forced to makea hasty retreat todry land. The boat-houses ong had their foundation on the water or in do mud rode the freshet in safety and kept the feet and posseseions of its occupants dry, but those which had been propped hixh above the singgish low water had every seam and crack opened by the sun, and when the swiftly flowing waters reached them it rushed in like water through a sieve, and caused the occu- ponte to flee for their lives. They tumbled out eds, tables, chairs, children and babies in the utmost confusion. The wharf looks like a tenement rowona general moving day. As the waters en- encroached upon the banks, the household utensils were removed farther up towards Water street, and since the rise was so very rapid, a number of removals had to be made in a short time. Within a distance of 100 yards there were no less than thirteen little lots of moving, and by each of them sat a woman and atew chil n. At Williamsburg, Beck Run, portions of McKeesport, California, Monongahela City Bellevernon, Brownsville, Fayette City and other towns along the river are reported artly submerged this morning.

PARKERSBURG, W. Va., July 11.—The storm e tion ent wit of Monday night was the most disastrous of the many which visited this region during the past week, and the loss of property in a range of twelve counties hereabouts is estimated a $250,000. A bridge worth $40,000 was swept trom its moorings here yesterday. All day immense quantities of wheat and timber floated past er mass. Almost every farm on the valley the counties adjoining this has been swept clean of its products. The uiddle Island Tie Co. lost 4, tles last night valued at $13,500.

The flames spread so rap- idly that two employes, James Burkhardt and Dick Brennan, were burned to death. IN SESSION ALL DAY. Meeting of the Republican National Com- mittee in New York. New YorK, July 11.—Groups of dis- tinguished gentlemen stood about the corri- dors of the Fifth Avenue Hotel for hours this morning before the National Committee went into session about noon. Nearty all of the members of that committee were present, and the probable selection of officers to be named to-day ‘was discussed. Everything spoken upon this subject was speculation. Members of the committee who were ap- proached and spoken to on the subject had no forecast to make. The man most prominently spoken of in gonnection with the chairman ship of the committee is Senator Quay. His absence from the meeting is considered as bearing out the probability of his selection. Congressman Bayne of Pennsylvania is at the hotel prepared to act as proxy for Senator Quay. He said 1 morning that the latter was pre to accept the — manship of the — Committee if Harri son desires him to do so Among others named as probable M. are John C. New of Indian Sa ope Fa! . 8. Clarkson of Iowa, and Henry de of Massachusetts. Ex- — 2 Piatt is most prominently men- tioned as Chairman of the Executive Com- mittee. W. W. Durles of Indiana is another candidate. At a few minutes alter 12 o'clock the committee werit into session in room D R. The proceedings were held, of course, in private, with J. 8. Clarkson of lowaas tem- porary chairman, and Sam Fessenden of Con- necticut as temporar secretary. Alter a ses- sion of about half an hour the committee took a recess, having appointed a committee of nine to report a plan of organization and one on candidates for permanent officers, etc. A Joint Debate.

THE SECRETARY STRONGLY OPPOSED TO AN AUTUMN SESSION. An Important Order Regarding Evictions in Ireland—Tie Life Peerage Bill—A Grand Ball in Honor of the New Duchess of Marlborough—The Saltan of Turkey Alarmed—Foreign News. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Lorpor, July .—Up to the moment Mr. Smith rose last night in the House of Com- mons to announce the intention of the Gov- ernment in regard to public business, much uncertainty prevailed on the subject. The members who had assembled in great force, anxious to hear the expected statement of the Government, had much difficulty in making up their minds as to an autumn session, although the question had been seriously dis- cussed by the Ministers for more than a week past. Balfour strongly opposed this, as it will make him directly responsible to Parliament during the winter and before the session is over he may be confronted in the Commons by Mr. Dillon. How sensitive Balfour is to public opinion about his resolute policy is shown by the instructions just sent out under his personal direction to the constabularly, ordering that in all important evictions likely to cause comment, reference should be made to divisional Magistrate Callen, before pro- tection is promised. Thus it appears that in evictions not likely to cause comment, the police are at liberty to do as they please. The decision of the Ministry respecting an autumn session indicates that Balfour has lost his influence in the Cabinet. The present departure will possibly lead to a radical change in the parliamentary sit- tings. It is not unlikely that an autumn session may become the rule, at all events, until Par- liament is relieved on the Irish business by passing a home rule bill. The present ar- rangement by which the House sits through the summer was made at a time when that body consisted almost exclusively of fox hunting squires. Nowadays it is estimated that it contains not more than 100 huntsmen out of 670 members. Almost all the Liberal members approve the autumn sittings. Even on the Tory side, 150 members petitioned the other day in favor of the plan. THE LIFE PEERAGE BILL. The withdrawal of the life peerage bill, even under the altered conditions is a confession that the proposal is a failure. LABOUCHERE’S OFFER. . Labouchere, in Truth, offers to bet the Times that he can forge Parnell’s signature on pieces of paper, mixthem up with genuine signa- tures and no expert will be able to detect the difference. The fact is, he says, that nothing is more easy than to imitate a signature, and nothing more difficult than to write an original letter in the handwriting of another person. VISCOUNT HOWE’S MONUMENT. Dean Bradley writes the Times to-day, to inform American visitors in London that the monument to Viscount Howe, slain on the march to Ticond@eroga in 1758,erected by a vote of the Province of Massachusetts the follow- ing year, has been removed from the window to the south isle of the nave where the inter- esting inscription was undecipherable, and placed onthe floor immediately behind the monument to Fox, and just within the belfry. The Dean thinks those interested in the his- tory of America will appreciate the motive and approve of the result of thig displace- ment. THE AMERICAN DUCHESS. | The Duchess of Marlborough made her first appearance yesterday in English society at a ball given by Mrs. Henry Oppenheim, wife of a millionaire banker and part proprietor of the Daily News. The Duke and Duchess were ac- companied by the Duke’s mother and sisters. The Duchess was much mobbed and stared at. As the wife of a divorced man she will not be received at the Queen’s drawing room. England. THE RACES.

Latest Developments of the Moore-Norton Scandal—iInterviews With the Runaway Couple at Topeka—dJudge Laughlin and Mrs. Caswell Plead With Mrs. Norton—A New ‘Feature of the Case—The Habeas Corpus Proceedings. By Telegraph to the Post-DisPaTcu. TOPEKA, Kan., July II.— Henry W. Moore and Mrs. Norton still remain closely caged in room 41 at the Copeland. Officer Nichols was on duty all night last night at room 41. Moore and Mrs. Norton retired about 11:80 o’cloek, when the light was extinguished. The door re- mained closed, but unlocked, the officer main- taining his vigil close by in the hallway. Their room is on the third floor in the ex- treme southeast corner of the building with windows on the south and west sides. The room ig a small one rather plainly furnished. The City Marshal is being censured to some extent by preachers and others for permitting Moore and Mrs. Norton to occupy the same room in violation of the laws of the State. Mrs. Nor- ton declares, however, that she cannot be taken away from Moore. She will not permit him to leave her even for a few minutes. She addresses him in the most affectionate terms. She is of a very nervous Gisposition, but this morning she was more nervous and flighty than at any time during her imprisonment. Soon after they had taken breakfast she broke into tears, your correspondent and the officer being in the room atthetime. She buried her face in her haddkerchief and then jumping up from her chair suddenly she ran across the room to Moore, who was reclining on the bed and threw her arms around him. don't care how many mean things they gay about you Henry, I stili love you, she said. Then showering kisses upon his fore- head and lips she exclaimed: ‘‘Henry, they may putus in prison or do anything they piease but they cannot separate us, can they?“ HER COMPANION, Moore smiled but made noreply. He is feel- He has slept but very littie since they were arrested and is greatly fatigued. He no longer attempts to hide his irritability and inn fecling. He does not chat pleasantiy about the affair, as he did at first. He only deciares that he will not go back to St. Louis if he can help it, and when asked about the charges made by Norton, he flies inte a passion. While thus excited he frequently curses and speaks in the harshest terms of Norton and parties in St. Louis, who he says have proven to be traitors. While in these fits of passion Mrs. Norton will throw her arm around him and attempt to quiet him. She tells him that they may malign him if they choose, but they cannot harm him. He never loses an opportunity to deny the stories that he has heavy indebt- edness in St. Louis, Hedeciares that with the exception of twoor three outstanding bills ot little consequence and a note of $500 not due until September, he owes nothing. His last words to your correspondent this morning were: ‘*I never borrowed a cent in my life of John W. Norton.’’ THE HABEAS CORPUS PROCEEDINGS. The City Marshal, Carter, at 10 0’clock this morning presented the following return to the order of Judge Guthrie, commanding him to produce the bodies of Henry W. Moore and Mrs. Norto !. To the Honorable Judge of the District Court; I, John F. Carter, Marshal of the City of Topeka, in the County of Shawnee, State of Kansas, do hereby certify that before the coming of this writ to me directed, to wit: On the 9th day of July, 188, said Henry W.

She says she Will not re- turn. How is Mrs. Norton feeling?“ Not very well. She is oniy tired, I think. She is lying down. Mrs. Caswell is with her.’’ With this remark Mr. Moore exeused him- self and joined Mrs. Norton and Mrs. Caswell. During the interview with Judge Laughiin Mrs. Norton was greatly affected. She wept bitterly and at times her sovs coulda be heard by occupants of the adjoining rooms, ANOTHER CHARGE. Moore and Mrs. Norton were not informed until this morning, and it was knownto no one but the officers that a complaint was filled by Oounty-Attorne Curtis late last evening before ustice Searle against them charging that a violation of the State law under Section 12, in relation to marriages, which makes it a misdemeanor for a man and woman not Married to live together as man and wife, and fixes the penalty at not less than $500, nor more than $1,000, or not less than thirty days nor more than three months imprisonment. Mrs. Norton and Moore are reyisted at the Copeland as H. W. Mason and wife, Phila- deiphia.’’ Had they been released this morning they would have been immediately arrested upon the charge; as they were not and the offense with which the or at least one of them is charge in Missouri is a greater one, it is not likely that the warrant will be served unless they are released. A reporter asked vases ugh- lin this morning if he thought there was any doubt about their being able to take Moore back to St. Louis. Not in the least, said the Judge. I do not think he will be released on habeas corpus, and if he is released there are other ways in which we ean hold him.“ It is very plain that the St. Louis officers prepose to haye Moore. He will make a per- sistent fight against going back, but he will have to go, and, as one of the officers re- marked this morning: Moore might just as well make up his mind to go without so much trouble about it. MOORE HATES TO RETURN. 1 don't have much faith in these habeas corpus proceedings, said Moore to our correspondent this® worning. 1 lave never had very much hope from the start that I was likely to be released by these Dez, but my attorneys were quite confident that they could not hold me if this step was taken.’’ Then you will probably have to go back with the officers?’’ „Well, it looks that way, I must admit, My attorneys still think there is a chance to be re. leased, If my attorneys would pay the word I would be willing to start back this afternoon, forlam quite sick. It will come to that any- way. But, my God, Ido hate to return to St. Louis.’’ What is your objection?’’ „Well, I had made up my mind I would never set my foot in St. Louis again. I don’t hesitate to go back because I will have to answer to the. charge of grand larceny. Idon't fear that at all. John W. Norton can’t bring one iota of proof against me, have never had one copper of his money in wy possession and knew nothing whatever about the deeds and stocks whieh Mrs. Norton has, but it is the going back to St. Louis that I dread, for there has been so much said about this escapade of mine in St. Louis that I don't want to see the city again. Nor I don’t want to see anybody there.’’ EFFECTING A SETTLEMENT. Judge Laughlin, attorney for Norton, and Capt. Johnson, attorney for Moore, held a long consultation this afternoon in Judge Langhlin’s room. Capt. Johnson said at the close of the consultation: There will be no habeas corpus hearing this afternoon. If will again be postponed. Ne- gotiations are in progress between us which may lead to a settlement of the affair, The condition on which Judge Laugh- lin proposes to settle it without going into the courts is that Moore shall leave the country and that Mrs. Norton shall return to St. Louis and give up the papers which she has in her possession. This proposition has been made 54 Norton, but neither Moore nor Mrs. orton will agree to it. still I have hopes that we will settle the mat- ter without the aid of the courts. Both Moore and the woman declare that they will not separate, udge Laughlin fs now in consultation with Moore and Mrs. Norton, with the hope of get- ting them to agree with his proposition, Mrs, Norton declared this afternoon that she was willing to give up any property of Norton’s she had in her posses- sfon, but she would not consent to be sepa- rated from Moore, and would agree to no a ean which meant the prosecution of oore. Officer Browning left at6o’clock this morn- ing for Nemaha County, where the Gov- ernor was suddenly called by the II- ness of his wife. The Governor de- clared before his departure that he would honor the requisition papers. The officer cannot get back before to-morrow noon, The habeas corpus proceedings will be postponed until his arrival. Ed Dunn Leaves the Cave: Ed Dunn said to-day that he had severed all connection with Uhrig’s Cave, where he has been for several seasons. James Hannerty takes his place in the box office.

Hevtena, Ark., July 11.—William Burchard killed Robert Williamson by shooting him through the heart afew miles below the city last night. The murderer and murdered man are both negroes. The murder was the result of a friendly scuffliug match. Williamson, in a playful manner, was chasing Burchard down the levee, when Burchard turned on him, drew his pistol and shot him through the heart, killin him instantly. Burchard laimed that the shooting was accidental, but iliamson’s brother, the only witness to the killing, says that it was a cold-blooded, de- liberate murder. Burchard skipped out im- mediately after the shooting, but the officers bave gone in search of him.

The Attorney Makes a Lengthy Argument Reviewing the Points in the Great Trial— Mrs, and Miss Brooks Attentive Listeners —Toe-Day the Governor's Birthday Ann“ versary—A Decision Expected To- Day. By Telegraph to the Post- DISPATCH. JEFFERSON Cry, Mo., July 11.--Mr. Fauntie- roy began his argument before the Governor at 9o’clock this morning. The attorney was full ot feeling. His client’s interest was up- permost in his mind, so many reasons calling for executive clemency that Mr. Fauntleroy scarcely knew which to present first. The speaker was an adyocate of eapital punish- ment and thought it should be enforced when the condemned had had all the advantages of ot a fair and impartial trial, but, said he, **I have followed the Maxwell case from its inception through all its course up to the present hour, and I say to you that with me it is not a question of opinion, but in all good conscience I cin safely say that I know he has had no fair and impartial trial, and I further believe that your Excelleney will never per- mit a man, whether alien or citigen, to swing from the gallows except upon a verdict upon a fair and impartial trial. The dignity of our State will not permit it; public policy revolts against it; the civilization of our age and time stands aghast at the idea of the execution of a man according to the forms of law whose trial denied to him the privileges and rightg whieh the laws of the country acoord to every crim- inal brought before the bar of justice.’’ Mr. Fauntleroy read frequent passages trom the dissenting opinion of Judge Sherwood to show that the trial wae not a fair one and that Maxwell was denied the privileges which he was entitied to. He then alluded to the state of public feeling against Maxwell, caused in a great measure by the influenee of the press and the further fact that MAXWBLL WAS AN ALIER, and not acitigen, and that the chief object was to convictaman who was believed to be guilty of murder the most heinous, There was no person except his young attorneys to stand up in his defense. Maxwell was a stranger with the great ocean separating him from his friends, with no money to employ eminent counsel, Is it marvelous that some mistakes have been made in the trial court, which under other circumstances might not have crept in? The speaker, ina beautiful and impressive manner, called attention to the interest that is now being felt throughout the country in favor of commutation. The people were changing their views. The simple uppeal of the old father asking only for justice and not clamoring for mercy, is bringing much fruitas is indicated by the pesisione and letters from hundreds of the est lawyers of the State, from farmers, mer- chants, ministers of the gospel, college presi- dents, members of Congress, county officers, mechanics, bankers and business men of all avocations, not only in Missouri, but from nearly every State inthe Union, and from the home of Maxwell; petitions and letters aggre- gating nearly five thousand calling upon you to Ee clemency in behalf of the man stand- Lb 8 THE SHADOW OF THE GALLOWS becanse these petitioners believe that a fair trial has not been had and that the ends of justice would be met by commuting the sen- tence to life imprisonment, and to-day the clamor for blood is giving way, the hearts of the people are softening, passion is yielding to reason, and if it were possible reach the people with our petitions I candidly.,.beljeve that 90 ne cent ot the people of Missouri would unite in praying your Excellency to interpose and exercise the commutation ower which the people in our constitution nave delegated to the discretion of the kxecu- ve. for us to THE PREJUDICED JUROR. Mr. Fauntleroy dwelt at length upon the fact that in the trial court the defendant was deprived of the benefit of introducing evidence to prove former good character. He read from authorities to show that the benefit of good character was an important privilege that should not be denied. The right of a fair trial is a sacred one and should be zealously r by all trial courts, This right includes the selection Lot qualified jurors, as well as the questions of admissability of proper evidence, etc. Here the speaker called attention to the fact that one of the jurors bad formed and expressed an opinion unfavorable to the defendant, going so far as to say that Max- well ought to be hun and this long before the trial occurred; that the information came to the defense after the trial had commenced, that the defense raised this point against the qualification of the juror, but this juror, nevertheless, was per- mitted to sit in trial in the case and — udgment upon the quilt of the de- endant. The speaker urged that this fact alone should be sufficient reason for the Governor to be gatisfied that a fair trial had not been had and one that calls loudly for clemency, Juryman Calahan’s prejudice inthe Maxwell trial, his subsequent pub- lished statements, all came in for severe comment and constituted a powerful reason, in the opinion of the speaker, that called loudly for clemency. Mr. Fauntleroy continued his speech until noon, when a recess was taken till 2 o’clock, when he resumed his argument. His speech this afternoon was devoted chiefly to the Ding- ss final time. WILL PROBABLY DECIDE TO-Dar. Mrs. Brooks and daughter were present during the Leg and were very attentively listening. The Governor’s office was filled and the hall in front crowded with people who listened with marked attention to every word of the attorney. The speech was delivered with ease and earnestness: All the points touched 3 were forcibly and clearly pre- sented. The audience was well pleased; in fact it is pronounced on all sides a fine speech. The Governor's private secretary, Mr. antis, complimented it in the highest terms. After its conclusion the Governor, observ- ing the day of the month on your correspond- ent’s special, remarked, ‘‘Well, this is my birthday, and it had not occurred to me until I noted it on your special.’’ Some one suggested that it was singular that he was thus fayored with such an eventful day as to be able to commemorate it with one of the most merciful acts of administration, if not of his life. The Governor only smiled and turned to leave the office. It is understood here that Assistant Circuit Attorney Bishop has written a letter to the Governor remonstrating against a commutation of the sentence. our oorrespondent did not see the letter, but he is satisfied of the truth of the rumor. It is believed that the Governor will render his decision upon the conclusion of Mr. Fauntleroy’s speech this afternoon. — The Bridal Bulletin.

HE death watch was is placed on Maxwell \ this morning. At 6 o’ clock Deputy Sher- iffs Reardon, O’Con- nell and Moerschel went into the jail to keep guard over doth him and Henry Lafidgraf, who is sentenced to be exe- cuted with him on Friday. Generally there aretwo depu- ties placed on the „ death watch of a ~ condemned man, but were deemed sufficient men, who occupy adjoining cells. Maxwell looked pale and mervous to-day. When his breakfast was brought in to him helaid it to one side and made no attempt to eat. He was anxious for mews from Jefferson City and the suspense was telling on him. Last night he received the following telegram: Hugh M. Brooks: ' Application to be argued to-morrow. Weare more hopeful than ever. Sentiment of this community strongly favorable. MARTIN & FAUNTLEROY. Jefferson City, July 10. While this message was decidedly encour- ing it did not reiieve him of the suspense. Hie showed the telegram to all who called and evidently derived considerable hope from it. In the morning he spoke of what kind of work he would like to do in the penitentiary. The tailor shop, he thought, would be the best lace for him. Heimagined he would like it etter there. He hoped he would not be placed in the saddle-tree factory, as the work there was very heavy—he understood the heaviest inthe prison. The penitentiary authorities ought to gauge a men by his strength and work him accordingly. Small men possessed of iittle strength should be put in the tailor shop, and big strong men ought to be made to work inthe saddle-tree factory and do all the heavier work, as they were bet ter able to stand it, Evidently from his talk, he entertains strong hopes of a commutation ot sentence. Along toward 9 o'clock Maxwell engaged Deputy-Sheriff Reardon in A GAME OF DOMINOES. The played three games, of which the con- demned man won two and his death watch one. Deputy Sheriff O’Connor then tackled him and played for sometime. O'Connor was more successful and held his own better. But Maxwell’s interest was not centered on the game. That was apparent. He was anxiously awaiting intelligence from Jefferson re fd and while his remarks were of a pleasant charac- ‘ter, his heart was not in what he spoke. About his case the little foreiguer was voice- ess. three deputics to guard both GRAF was quite different. He sat near the door of his cell smoking his corn-cob pipe as he has done day after day. Neither by act nor ap- earance did he display any realization of ow close he was to death. He had not even heard of the Sheriff having refused to grant a jury to inquire into his mental condition until a Post-DISPATCH reporter told bim this r The news produced no visible effect on him however. When told that one of his attorneys, Mr. Bass, intended moving the Court to compel the Sheriff to summon a jury, Landgraf muttered: ‘‘That’s & good move. te you belong to any church?’’ he was asked. „es, I guess I belong to both of them,“ was the og s „Both of them? What churches?’’ Why the Protestant and Catholic.’’ How do you belong to both?“ *‘I] always have been a Catholic. tized a Catholic.’’ „Were you ever baptized into any Protest-. ant denomipation?’’ „Then how do claim to belong to the church?’ ‘*IguessIdo. I don’t know. Do you receive visits from any Protestant cler an?’’ ‘*Yes; often. : * 4 is he and to what ch urch does he be- on * ‘ J forget.’’ Does Father Tihan, the Roman Catholic priest who attends to the jail, visit you?’’ Tes; he comes up almost every day. i do you ve communion?’’ sé es * Whether real or assumed, Landgraf’s talk is certainly very rambling and queer, and his actions are just as peculiar. To all appear- ances he is just the same now as he has always been since his confinement, and the fact that he is to hang Friday does not appear to worry him particularly. MR. BASS, one of his attorneys,thinks the Criminal Court can make the Sheriff summon a jury to inquire into a doomed man’s mental condition and says he will make application to Judge Normile, either to-day in chambers or to-morrow in open court, to order the Sheriff to summon ury. Mr. Bass is rather indignant that heriff should pay so little attention to the formal application made yesterday by himself and associate counsel, Mr. Lodge, for the jury. He says five affidavits submitted 7 them certainly made out a prima facie case and that this was all that was necessary. If the jury declared the man insane, the public would be spared the horrible spectacle of see- ing an insane man hanged, and if he was not insane justice would not suffer by the hear- ing; the man could be hanged. As it is the Sheriff has placed himseif in the attitude of an expert and held that what- ever others may think, he knows Landgraf is not insane. Mr. Lodge does not like having been refused the jury either, but he seems to think that they are powerless to compel the Sheriff to appoint one. He does not think the court has power to interfere and issue an order of that kind to the Sheriff, although the latter is an officer of the court. There is a statute which says that the court or Governor may delay an execution for good cause, but it does not state it can compel the Sheriff to appoint such a jury. THE DEMAND FOR TICKETS to the execution of Maxwell has been very great. Sheriff Harrington has always adhered pretty strictly to the law in these matters and rmitted very few ple to witness them. r. Fauntleroy has said that if Maxwell has to hang he will notify the Sheriff to admit no one except those permitted by law and will see that there are no others ad- mitted. Fifteen witnesses, tlie Coroner’s jury the necessary deputy sheriffs, the officiais of the court and the newspaper reporters will be the only poopie admitted, at least so Deputy Sheriff Joe Harrington states. Already reparations are on foot for the double execu- n. The rickety gallows is to be fixed up 80 that the old structure will be able to send two more souls to kingdom come, and the Sheriff’ is selecting his deputies to assist in the execution. Bob Humphreys, the old-time hangman, is seen about the Four Courts building, but it is the neral im- pression that Deputy Sheriff Mike Fortin, who made sucha neat Tob of Alfred Biunt, the little hunchback negro, will be the execu- tioner. There is a strong feeling, however, that Governor may commute Maxwell's sentence, and if he does the Circuit Attorney’s office will ask for similar action in Landgraf’s —— — they claim is not so heinous an nse. = death watch on Maxwell and Landgraf was Guibor, already on duty. leved in care by — .

An inquest was held this morning on the body of Michael Cohen, who died atthe City Hospital Sunday afternoon from the effects of a fracture of the skull, caused by be- ing struck on the head with a brick or some other similar article on the night of July 3. The testi- mony showed that he and Edward Condon en- tered a saloon on Cass avenue, between Eleventh and Twelfth streets, and quarreled about paying for drinks. They got into a fight, and when they had been separated Cohen walked out. Oondon followed and struck him on the head with something which tore offthescalp. Atthe time the in- jury was not considered so serious, but on the morning of the 6tn he was sent to the bospital unconscious and remained in that condition until he died. Condon was arrested a few days ago and released on bond and has not since been re-arrested. The jury heid him responsible for Oohen’s death.

The Oak Hill and Carondelet Road connects with the Missouri Pacific main line at that station and it was a freight train of the Oak Hill Road which collided with the incoming Kirk- wood accommodation Passenger train of the Missour!l Pacific. The locomotive of the passenger train ran mto the freight train, throwing three of the cars off the track. The cow-catcher of the Kirk- wood locomotive was badliv demolished, and the passengers received quite a shaking uv. One of them was slightly injured. The exact amount of damage done is not known.

THE MAYOR REFUSES WELCOME TO IRON- _MOLDERS AND LEAVES THE CITY. An Idcident That Shortened the Morning Session of the Iron-Molders’ Union of North America at Druids’ Hall To-Day— Business Before the Union—A Uniform lated by Employers and Men—Proceed- ings To-Day. The eighth biennial session of the Iron- molders’ Union of North America began this morning at Druids’ Hall. The national union is designed to forward the interests of the iron-molders of the country, but has never in its history, Secretary Martin Fox says, taken any part in the quarrels between the men and their employers on the matter of wages. Theentire wage question has been left to the local unions for regulation. The national union has existed to bind together these locals, and for their sustenance in time ot need. The session begun this morning will extend over five or six days it is thought, but there are no governmental questions of im- portance to come before the body. THE MAIN MATTER to be considered will probably be the ap- pointment of a committee to confer with a committee appointed by the Manufacturers’ Association at its June meeting in Pittsburg. The manufacturers in the appointment of its committee for conference specified ae its object the arrangement of a schedule of wages to be paid molders throughout the country. The union has not been officially informed that the manufact- urers have taken that step, indeed the only information comes from George 8. Wiggens, a representative from Milwaukee, Wis., who ob- tained his information froma member of the firm of Brandt & Co. of Milwaukee, members ofthe Manufacturers’ Association. It is ex- poses, however, that an official communica- on will be received from the Secretary of the Manufacturers’ Association, on the receipt of which a committee for conference will prob- ably be appointed. There promises to be some lengthy discussion as to instruo- tions to at committee on tee subject of the wage scale, and as to the binding effect of any agreement that may be entered into without the ratification of SUCH AGREEMENT b the convention of the Iron-molders’ nion. Asthe union does not meet but once in two years this point will need to be pro- vided for. The Laclede office was filled withthe repre- sentatives this — ps) The national organ- ization is composed of local unions which send representatives on this basis: one for each union, and one additional representative for every 100 members or fraction of that number. There were over one hundred representatives registered at President P. J. Fitzpatrick’s headquarters in room Wat the Laclede this morning, and the Credentials Committee when it met found there were about one hun- dred and — representatives present. When President Fitzpatrick’s gavel fell at about 10:30 o’cilock there were present the fol- lowing officers: The Secretary, Martin Fox of ) Covington, Ky.; Assistant Secretary, John G. Weaver, also of Covington; Treasurer, John O’Keete, Troy; Trustees „ Metcalf, Toronto, Ontario; Jas. P. Hooley, Troy; John H. Kennedy, Norwalk, Conn., and Thos. Carr of 8t. Louis. The Trustees form an executive board which has charge of the union’s affairs to alimited extent when the union is notin session. The opening of Ahe convention was brief. The business following was also brief, as it consisted simply in the appointment ofa Committee on Credentials and adjournment till an hour this afternoon. There have been WELCOMING ADDRESSES delivered by the Mayor or ficial at all the former meetings of union, and it was expected that on this occasion Mayor Francis would not —V— refuse to let the light of his countenance shine upon the representatives. President Fitzpatrick was primed for a re- sponse but be was told before the union was called to order that he would not have that duty to perform, as the Mayor would not be present. This was a great sur- prise to bim as well as to the other officers who had expected they would receive the courtesy. he simple opening was a surprise to the representatives and many of them were 7s indignant. One of the local men said: ‘‘I know the Mayor was invited and I was told he would be here. He was invited by a committee consisting of Wm. Twellman, Thomas Carr and J. Jergenson.’’ MR. TWELLMAN was found in the crowd leaving the hall. He said: ' When the committee was appointed Mr. Carr was named as chairman. We did notthink it would be necessary to do any- thing but ask the Mayor to come over from the City Hall, and he would be willing to do it. We didn’t want him for any political reasons. We wanted him to come as Mayor and welcome the representatives to the city. So Mr. Carr went to him and asked him if he would come. He said he would and we thought no more about it. The Trades and Labor Union of St. Louis protested against the invitation. The local molders’ unions send three representatives to the Trades and Labor Union. they take an interest in our affairs. Some one proposed a resolution that we be requested to withdraw our invitation, and get some other man to make the welcoming address. The reason given was the Mayor had not enforced the eight-hour law as it applied to city em- ployes, particularly laborers on the streets. The resolution was passed, andthe Mayor heard of it. Yesterday Mr. Carr and myself went to his office to make sure he’ would be over this morning,and he surprised us very much b telling-us he thought we didn’t want him an had made other arrangements. We told him we had not regarded the action of the TRADE AND LABOR UNION, and we wanted him to come over and welcome the molders as the Mayor. He said he was very sorry but he had an engagement to speak at Liberty, Mo., which he would be compelled to keep. He thought the action of the Trades and Labor Union was final and as we had not informed him tothe contrary he acted on it. Mayor Francis was not at his office at the Cit allto-day, having gone to Liberty to look after his gubernatorial fences. At 2:30 o’clock this afternoon the convention again assembled, the report of the Committee on Credentials was read and other committees wore appointed. The convention then ad- journed until 10 o’clock to-morrow morning. some of- SUING A THIRD BASEMAN, D. Castleman Webb Wants $400 From Arlie Latham. D. Castleman Webb, the lawyer, has insti- tuted proceedings against the pall tosser, Walter Q. Latham, to recover $400 he claims due for legal services in two of Mr. Latham’s difficulties with his wives. Mr. Webb took the stand this morn- ing in Justice . court and said that he had been called upon by Latham shortly after his marriage with his first wife, Latham wanted to get away from her at any cost. He consulted with Webb, who ut a detective on the case to unt out the woman’s character and discover what her conduct had been in the East before she was married toLatham. The investigation proved that her character was not of the best, so Webb advised Latham not to do anything in the courts but leave things as they were until Mrs. Latham’s iawyers could be seen. After Webb had consulted them and explained hat he had found out about Mrs. Latham, ey persuaded her to to a settlement without — gy the matter into the court.

The Democratic City Committee will meet to-night to discuss the plans for procuring poll-books for the coming primaries. Mr. Charles B. Stark, the committee’s attorney, expected to be able to tell them this evening how the committee might obtain the free use and full title to a set of books, but the Re- publican members of the House of Delegates voted together last evening and defeated the bill providing for the sale of the so-called sur- Le a eS ye e ee ee . FAMOUS CLOAK DEPT © eke RL ae — A N plus books. Speaker Bannerman, who was a relied on to vote for the passage of i the bill, is not in the city, and - 4 the full Democratic vote could not be polled. Delegate Charies Nolan, the representative of the Union Labor party in the lower branch of the Municipal Assembly, holds the key to such situations, and last night voted with the Republicans. To-day the Democratic mem- bers decided to make another effort to save the bill. If the necessary number of votes can be secured, the action of last night will be reconsidered. It is now beginning to dawn on some of the Democrats that thereis a lack of unanimity on this subject. Several of the committee- men have announced that as far as they are concerned they will vote to use the October books of the School Board and will op- pose at all times the proposition made by Recorder Williams, who offers to furnish the books provided the committee will pay the wages of a Recorder’s clerk to be cus- todian of the books at each polling place. A significant tact is that the anti-Francis men are quietly using thier influence to prevail upon the committee to accept the Recorder’s offer, though they are not any more friendly to that .official than their opponents. This turn indicates two things. They evidently regard the Francis forces in the committee n and that if the primary election is held without baoks and the protecting presence of Mr. Williams’ appointece they will use their strength unmercifully at the primary election. It was reported some time ago that Mayor Francis would use bis influence to induce the committee to accept the use of the books under the conditions offered by the Recorder, but no action looking to that end has yet been taken by His Honor.

The President of that Repub- lie is practically a constitutional dictator, but Diaz has shown that he is able, honest and patriotic, and he is the only man with those qualities who is personally and poli- tically stron# enough to hold all Mexico together. He will be needed in the presi- dential chair until the finances of Mexico are established on a permanent basis of solvency and until the free public schools have educated a voting population of oiti- zens in a majority of the States. a re Tue situation of Mr. PaRNEeLL in the House of Commons presents features which appear strangely unjust to those not accustomed to English political meth- ods. The Irish leader has been accused of grave crimes by a privileged officer of the Crown, in a libel suit with which he had no connection, and yet he is unable to meet the charges. The Government re- fuses to prosecute him, to order an inves- tigation,or even to give him an opportuni- ty to clear himself. This appears such an unworthy and dishonorable use of power on the part of the ruling party that in this country it would create an overwhel- ming public opinion in favor of the vie- tim, which would prove disastrous to his persecutors. The English people appear to sanction unfairness in politics which would not be tolerated in America. ————— —- 6 —ä—5 THE German doctors charge that Fnxp- ERICK’s disease was cancer, and that MACKENZIE’sS management of the case was in effect a conspiracy to sacrifice the pa- tient’s life for the sake of securing hima brief reign and the power to provide for his wife and daughters. But their promptness in proclaiming his disease cancer, a disease so notoriously incurable as to bar him from the throne, seems to have been distrusted by FREDERICK him- self as part of a conspiracy to prevent his accession. As he had no faith in their ability to cure him of cancer, he preferred a distinguished doctor not wedded to the interest of his son and BISMARCK, aud will- ing to testify that the symptoms of cancer were not conclusive. From certain reported admissions, MACKENZIE himself may be prepared to concede that the disease was cancer and that the diaguosis of the German physicians is vindicated by the result, but doubtless he is provided with documents from FREDERICK and VICTORIA to vindicate his professional honor and to show that he kept faith with the patient and was no more controlled by reasons of state” than the German doctors. It was afight between WILHELM and his parents for a little brief authority, and the old folks won by the aid of Mac- KENZIE, and nobody can prove that the other side could or would have prolonged the patient’s life if MACKENZIE had not interfered. — 1 J.

Special Cablegram to the Post-D LONDON, July 11.—‘‘I saw the Duke of Mari- borough yesterday afternoon at the geridence of his mother, the Dowager Duchess of Mari- borough, in Grosvenor Square, He was in excellent spirits, for whieh he found vent every now and then by whistiing under his breath afew bars of ‘‘Yankee Doodle. The Duke expressed his delight at meeting a rep- resentative of the Post-DISPATCH on this side of the water, and with learning that cop- pies of that paper would be sent to him every morning from the Post-DISPATCH Bureau in Cockspur street. The Duke put bis hand on a paragraph in yesterday morning's Standard cabled from New York, to the effect that many lawyers there wore of the opinion that his re- cent marriage with Mrs. Hammersicy was illegal. ‘‘Iknow what you want to see me about, he said, ‘‘butIam afraid that it is a subject upon which Jean't speak just at present. I have no doubt that the lawyers who have so kindly stepped forward and given their opin- ions in the matter, without any hope of a fee, are very wise men, indeed, but’’—and here the Duke smiled dryly—‘‘I have learned some- thing of law by experience, and am sure that the service performed by Mayor Hewitt in the presence of the accredited representative of the British Consul-General is without flaw and above cavil. You see, I had given a great deal of thought to the matter, more, perhaps, than lawyers ho are not so interested person- ally. CALLING ON THE NEW DUCHESS, . While this conversation was going on in the library, carriage after carriage rolled up to the dark house, which seemed to frown upon the rays of sunshine chasing each other across its sombre front. Lackeys, footmen, gentle- mon, ushers were scrambling, shoving, elbow- ing each other to leave ecards or call upon the new Arerican Duchess. The crush grew thicker, and as I bowed myself out the Duke hastened into the drawing-room again to meet his old friends and introduce them to his new and handsome wife. Later in the evening I called upon George Lewis in regard to the validity of the marriage which New York lawyers have impugned. There is no doubt that Mr. Lewis isthe greatest authority on English law, in its relation to divorce, of any living man, so his deeision in favor of the legality of the cer- emony should be accepted as final and will bring great relief to Mrs. Hammersley’s friends. The telegram is nonsense, said Mr. Lewis. The marriage is perfectly valid. American law between partics over whom American courts have jurisdiction forbids re- marriage ofa guilty party during the lifetime of the petitioner, This American law can in uo way bind the Duke, who is an En- glishman, subject to the dominion of English courts. English law upon this subject is decisive. Thefifty-seventh section of 20 and 21 Victoria, Cap. 85. enacts that when the time limited for appealing against any de- cree dissolving a marriage shall bave expired and no appeal shall have been presented against such decree, it shall be lawful forthe respective parties thereto to marry again as if the prior marriage had been dissolved, by death. The Duke was, conseqtently, free to marry again, and inasmuch asthe lady whom he married was a widow suffering from no dis- ability by American law the marriage is be- yond doubt valid.’’ NOT OUT OF THE WOODS. Cards were issued yesterday by the Dowager Duchess of Marlborough for a reception to be given July 22 to meet Lillian, Duchess of Marl - borough. The Dowager Duchess has taken, I hear, the greatest fondness for her new daughter-in-law, and will probably go to Homburg for a few days with the newly mar- ried couple about the first week in August. It will be remembered that the Dowager Duchess stood by her son through thick and thin dur- ing the divorce case brought by the Marchion- ess of Blandford. If the rnmor which spread like wildfire last evening through clubland and Belgravia has any foundation in fact, the newly married Duke and his American bride are not out of the woods yet. It is stated that the Marchion- ess of Blandford, who is at present at Hinard, in France, is coming to England in a tew days and that on her arrival here she will apply to the courts for a summons against her former hus- band for contempt of the decree of court by which it was expressly stipulated that the re- spondent was not to marryagain. Iimagine, however, that this rumor is merely based upon a popular belief that the Marchioness Is apecullarly revengeful, if not a malicious, woman. This populnr opinion at the time of the divorcee case greatly neutralized public sympathy, which otherwise would have been overwhelmingly with the injured wife. CHARGED WITH WIRE-CUTTING.

Carried N MARSHALS OF THE COURTS, How They Use Usurped Power and Cripple the Police Force. „1 wish that people could understand, said a police officer to a Posr-Disraren re- porter, ‘‘how the police are hampered in their efforts to secure the arrest and detention of eriminals by certain court officials, If they did so theres would be less complaint directed against the police of the manner in which known thieyes and th are allow to go at large, and the responsibility would od ere it belongs. Ido notrefer to judges, al- though some of these are most unforcunately lax in the manner in which they treat crimi- nals, but to officers © epying & mper lower position, the marshals of the various criminal courts. This is an office the existence of whieh many eitisens are entirely ignorant, but in the way in which it is run here it is one of the most influential, and 8 lucrative positions that ean be held by any inhabitant of St. Louls, Originally established as a mere executive office, its occupants have gradually extended their authority until to-day t ey, in minor cases, at they had the power of judge, jory and Gov: ernor combined. a A2 soner ¢ 94 with any offense short of felony is pl n their charge they have assumed and exer. cise the authority of pronouncing on hi ilt or innocence and turning him loose without a trial if for any reason it seems best for them to do so. During the last year or two they have overstepped the boundaries formerly established, and rele felona as freely as those charged with mere breacnes of the peace. Not long ago two negroes were arrested under tne charge of assault with intent to kill, One of them wa held, but the other who, when in the patro wagon boasted that he could not be held, was turned loose by the Marshal within two days although he was known to be one or the wor 0 thugs and robbers in city. What is the use of arresting a man when eve officer knows at he possesses sufficient influence, of one kind or another, to sccure his release without a trial? I have urrested men of whose guilt there could not be the shadow of a doubt, and within twenty-four hours I have seen them on derisively at me. the street corners 88 I tell you that kind of thing dis- courages a police officer terribly, When these notorious thieves and robbers commit some outrageous crime the public are loud in their denunciation of the stupidity and su- pineness of the police force, while the parties really responsible, the marshals, receive no word of bimne. This because the situation of affairs is not understood. If it were, a storm of indignation would arise that would sweep a large percentage of those officials out of the court precincts.’ EAST ST.

The Emperor of Brazil, who is at the gplen- did hotel at Aix-les-Baing, has been wonder- fully cured, He arrived there a few weeks ago as partly adying man. He takes daily drives and waiks about the garden, and generally plays a game of billiards in the public room. He and bia suite have forty-two rooms in the hotel. The Empefor's dislike of etiquette and his affability have rendered him extremely popular, CONG SPECULATIONS. The King of the Belgians is immensely rich but his speculations on the Congo are known to have cost him vast sums of money and there is an uneasy suspicion at Brussels that his recent visit to London was connected with a project for raising a loan on the security of his numerous and very valuable estates in Bel - gium. 4 GREAT HEIRESS. Much interest has been excited in Scotland by the announcement that Miss Nisbet Hamm ton of Biel and Archerfleld, who is, proba- bly the greatest hélress in Great Britein, is engaged to be married to Henry Ogilvey, second son of Ogilvey of Inverguharity, who represented Dundee for many years as a Liberal in old Palmerstonian days. Both bride and bridegroom are well advanced toward middle age. Miss Hamilton can count her rejected suitors by dozens, and among them was a German Prince who has since married a mem ber of the royal family, She inherited an estate of 16,000 acres in East Lothian from her mother, Lady Mary Nisbet Hamilton, to whom this property came from her mother, Lady Elgin, who was the heiress of Mr. Nisbet of Dirleton, a man of immense wealth anda noted Sybarite in his day. Miss Hamiiton also possesses a very large estate in Lincoinshire and also has considerable personal estate. A FINE 8PECIMEN OF MANHOOD. Mr. Mandeville, who has just died, struck me when Llast met him, about ten months ago, as one of the finest specimens of man- hood that Jever saw. He was a genial, cheer- ful, honest gentleman, ready to dare all and to suffer all in what he deemed to be the cause of hig country. For venturing to express his opinion upon the rack-renting of Countess Kingston, at Mitchelstown, where he lived, and for coming forward in support of the tenants in their re- sistance to what, it is now admitted, was an intolerable rent, he was consigned to prison, He came out a broken man, for it would seem that he was treated with exoep- tional severity and to this ill treatment his death was due. There ought to be a coroner's inquest at once and the scoundrels who killed him should be summoned and forced to testify asto what occurred when he was in their clutches, They would probably attempt to evade their responsibility after the manner of keepers in the lunatic asylums who have broken the ribs of some patients, Under the cross-examination eome portion of the truth may be elicited. THE ‘‘TIMES’’ PARNELL LETTERS. Lot the Nimes now disclose how and from whom the forged letters were obtained. Then doubtless Parnell would go even before a London jury, for it would be possible to prove aconsptracy against him. But so long as the Times declines to do this, the issue would de- pend upon mere assertion on one side or the other, in which case I do not hesitate to say that it would be extremely improbable that Parnell would obtain justive, In challenging Mr. Parnell to take the opinion of a London jury, the Times is well aware that it is ohal- lenging him to a game of cogged dice, It is a curious fact that while members of the House of Commons are not paid, the re- verse is the case in the House of Lords. At every change of ministry there is a scramble for paying court offices among the lords, and it is notorious that without this bait it would be impossible to induce a sufficient number of peers to serve on committees and take part in the current business of legislation. On Salis- bury’s accession to office I footed up the amount of salaries distributed among the Tory peers. The sum was a little over £20,000 a year. The state of things therefore is this: The peers are paid for legislating and the members of the House of Commons are not. HENRY LABOUCHERE. The Mormon 0 Property.

Nuptials of Mr. Bartlett 8. Adams and Miss Mabel Hanson and of Mr. Joseph H. Rozenbaum and Miss Rose Green—Notes, Personals, Gossip and Chat. „ At 2 o'clock to-day Miss Mabel Hanson, third daughter of Mrs. Ellen B. Hanson, was mar- ried to Mr. Bartlett S. Adams, only son of Mr. W. A. Adams of No. 3451 Laclede avenue, It ‘was a pretty home affair at the residence of the bride’s mother, No. 3185 Chestnut street, which was prettily decorated with plants, and the air fragrant with the perfume of flowers. The youthful bride, one of last winter's graduates of the High School, was very simply and becomingly attired in white faille Francaise, made short, and veiled entirely with full round skirts of fine white silk mull. The bodice was made with a long point, decolette and sleeveless over a guimp of silk mull, drawn close about the throat, and finished with puffed mull siceves reaching to the elbow, where they were met by long gloves, and in her hand she carried a large bunch of white roses. The conventional bridal veil was dispensed with, and the petite bride made a beautiful picture, with her fair hair arranged in soft fluffy puffs on top of her head. The whole toilette was exceedingly be- coming to the youthful wearer. There were no attendants and only the near relatives present to witness the ceremony, which was performed by the Rev. Hobart Cooke, the Assistant Rector of St. George’s Church. After the repast, which followed the ceremony, the bridal attire was changed for astylish coaching gown of re- seda China silk, artistically draped, the boad- ice finished with vest and collar and cuffs of Persian embroidery, Sue wore a bat and gloves to match. Mr. and Mrs. Adams left this evening by boat for St. Paul, thence they go to Lake Min- netonka, where they will spend a month.

The front is proseily draped with fine Fedora lace, combined wit a scarf of the faille, The corsage, pointed in front and cut square at the throat, is covered with the lace, ana the opening filled with it to the throat. The demi sleeves are of lace, to be met by long gloves, and in er hand she will carrv a large bunch of ride’s roses. The bridal veil of tulle will be worn without ornament.

MARRIED HIS OWN DAUGHTER, The Sensational Story Told by a Rabbi of Brooklya, N. . Ny Telegraph to the Posr-Disraren. NEW YORK, July 11.—The Rev. Louis Pul- vermacher, rabbi of the Synagogue Mount Sinai, Washington street, Brooklyn, tells the story of a man in New York who married his own daughter without knowing her identity, One child was the fruit of their union. Rabbi Pulvermacher keeps a jewelry store on At- lantic avenue. The man who was unwittingly gullty of the terrible crime visits his place frequently, but he has never learned his name or where he lives. Even the names of this most unfortunately mated couple the rabbi declares he does not know. He told a reporter last evening that he had heard, during the day, that the husband of his own daughter was under arrest in New York. Isaac Waldorf, a native of Poland, and a Hebrew, is supposed to be the man, and is said to be well known in mercantile circles in the metropolis. N to the story, eighteen months ago, while he was walking along Broadway. he met a handsome gir! of about 18 years, whose 8 he quickly made, He would probably not have spoken to her had she not been weeping. She seemed at loss where to go. Seeing that she was of his own nation- ality he talked to her and ascertained that she had come from Vienna to seek some friends. After leaving Castle Garden she lost her way in the great city. The girl said that ber name was Mena Sterling, and Waldorf, whose sympathies had become aroused by her story, offered ber shelter for the night under his own roof, of which she gladly availed herself. Waldort’s housekeeper was instructed to give herevery care and atten- tion. Mena learned that her protector was a widower and had three children. She turned her attention tothe latter and before night they showed an attachment for her, which was noticed by their father, who straight- way tondered der the position of housekeeper. She ag promptly accepted the place,and the wrinkled old woman who had been keeping things straight about the house was discharged. ortwo months Mena was — for her services in cash and at the expira- ion of that time she was asked to become the step mother of the little ones. This offer she also accepted and the marriage was cele- brated. She found her husband a ver devoted man, and everything was pleasant i her life for some months. She was very fond of her husband’s children andthey treated her with all respect. Frequently she spoke to her husband of her mother in denns and he willingly gave her money to send to the absent parent. A baby was about be born and her mind naturally turned toward her mother as a person whose pres- ence would be most desirable then. she wrote to her mother about this and quickly came back the response saying how glad she would be to a COME TO HE AUGHTER'S SIDE. Tour mother shall come and my home shall be her home,’’ sald the happy husband, who without delay forwarded an invitation and 1 traveling expenses. Then ashe had business in a distant part of the country he went away for several wecks. He expected to be home again before bis wife's mother arrived on this side. But he misch culated the length of hisatayfrom home and Mena’s mother was at his house when he re. turned, This was during the latter part of — week. Mother and 1 were sitting gether with happiness depicted on their faces when he entered, Then there was a dramatic scene. The lady sprang to her feet with a look of intense excitement on her face and exclaimed: ‘‘Who is this man!“ ‘*Why, mother, this is my husband, re- | plied Mena. „our husband, child,’’ screamed her mother, witha look of horror, ‘‘and he is my husband, too. My God! you have married your own father, Mena. Throwing up her handsand giving utter- ane to a terrible scream, Mena fell to the floor in a dead faint. She was in a state hov- ering petmeen life and death for some days ane aoe that period her babe game into the world, — er mother was her constant attend - ant and Waldorf kept ata distance from the two creatures whose lives he had biasted. Twenty n Waldorf is said to have married Mena’s mother while he was a soldier inthe German army. Two months after the wedding he forsook her, deserted from his regimentand esca to this country. e had been here about six years when he again married. This wife died, poav ing him the three children to whom Mena became 80 quickly attached. His first wife changed her name after he deserted her and took up her abodein Vienna. Mena was born there and was never told about her father, except tbat he was dead. As for her, Waldorf. it may be said, never knew until his wife atood before him and proclaimed the fact that he had any children but those with whom he had been N before Mena came into his house. „Now it is not true that I know these parties and have advised them to seek t counsel Grand Rabbi J told me - another whose name 1 do not know.

The Condition ef Yucatan; Its Possibilittes and Disadvantages—A Wild Country Given Over te Indians aad Ouatiaws— Where the Qld Aztec Superstitions Still Flourish—tThe Refuge for Oriminals of the Mexican Peninsula—A Lawiess Land and Its Inhabitants—Reminiseences of the Mexicap War From a Veteran—Why Americans Won. Carleton A, Edwards of Tucson, Ariz., arrived in the city this morning from an ex- tended trip through Northeastern Mexico and Yucatan. Mr. Edwards, who is over 70 years ot age, and a veteran of Taylor's army, was seen in the Lindell corridors by a POSstT- DISPATCH reporter, and asked as to the condition of affairs in the provinees whieh he had visited. It is the first time I have been in Mexico gince 1547,'’ said Mr, Edwards, and the first trip 1 ever made to Yucatan. lL only penetrated the west- ern borders ef that province in search of mines, and came to the conclusion that until the country was much more developed it would be useless to attempt mining operations ex- cept near the coast. DWELLERS IN YUCATAN. a „Few people have any idea what a wild and primitive country Yucatan is. It ig nomin- | ally under Mexican rule, but is practically an independent sort of No-Man’s land, without either law or government. The popula- tion ig mostly Indian, and the old Aztec blood is found there in greater uri than anywhere else on the exican Peninsula, To visit Yucatan isiike going back two hundred years, as the old habits, custome and superstitions of the aboriginal races are found there nearly intact. Of course this does not apply to the country contiguous to the few avenues of commerce, or the vicinity of the Mexicaa settlements. But in the hilly and wooded back country, where many of the inhabitants have neyer seen a white face, the Indians remain in much the same condition they were two cepturies 0. % one whe cares much for peace and quiet, or who sets a high valueon his life, should travel far in Yucatan. Not only is the hostility of the native races voor fierce, but that province isthe refuge forall the crime and lawlessness that has made Mexico too hot to hold itand that has not sought safety on the Rio Grande border. AN OUTLAWS’ PARADISE. It a malefactor can escape to the wilds of Yucatan, he finds not only safety from pursuit but congenial companionship, and the con- seguence is that the outlying districts are in- fested with bands o cut-threats and who pursue thoir efa- 1 callin almost totally unchecked. Jo man’s Ife js safe, if itis supposed that he has any valuables about him, and pursuit of the criminals is useless, as 1 defy the au- thorities in their swamp and hill fastneases. Yucatan is rich in minerals, and has great agricultural possibilities, but until it is oon uered, which it has never yet fully been, only the section along the coast will be capable of civilized development.“ ‘‘In my trip through Northeastern Mex- Ido, Mr. Edwards went on to say, I passed over the line of march pursued by our army in 1846 and 1847, and revisited the scenes of the two great struggles of the army of the upper line, Monteray and Buena Vista. Thesenames will recall many memories to a large number of citizens of St. Louis now alive, with whom I served. The history of the operations of the Northern army of cecupa- tion has never been fully written and the credit for the success of the Ameri- can forces has never been assigned the right quarter, fcott’s general- n the lower line was unquestionab! very fine, and Taylor shines in history wit arefiected luster, which he by no means de- serves. I do not believe you can find an of- fleer who would not say that as far as general- ship went our campal was one of the most ridiculous on reco Taylor was a gal- lantman and a flerce fighter, but had tio more idea of military science than the babe unborn, HOW GEN. TAYLOR COMMANDED. „His whole plan was to march along the road and when he came to an obstacle to send his men headlong over it without any attempt at tactics or strategy. Fortunately forus the obstacles never bad anything but Mexicans behind them, and they never stood more than‘ one good push, but against any other foemen our campaign, instead of being a success, would have been a disas- trong failure, and even as it was hundreds of valuabie lives were lost which might easily havé been spared. The manner in which our men were sent 12 the famous narrow lane at Monterey betokened a leader utterly devoid of all military qualities save cour- age, and the. victory we won there should have been turned into a disastroua de- feat. If we ever come in contact with the Mexicans again, we will find their conquest a different matter, not because we are any worse or they auy better, but because modern vrevent us from winning, as we did to ship bef. ‘yely dy charging. No matter how atron, position, or how overpowering their . the Mexicans never could bring the. o face the cold steel, and whenever ta, net line, no matter how sbort and thin, seen within “og A —— of them they woul ak and run. To this,and to this alone, did we owe our success in North- ern Mexico, but under present conditions 1 — cannot send two or three regiinents flying by the threat of a bayonet charge, and our nextwar, if it ever comes, willrequire much more nearly equal forces than those with which we overran Mexico in 1847. No mere advance guard of less than 8,000 men, can even again beat down all opposition and capture the capital, but the « gle, al- — pes doubtiui, willrequire much greater roos. New Sleeping Car Line.

By Telegraph to the Post-DisPaTcu, LitrLe Rock, Ark., July 11,—A private letter from Arkansas City, Ark., says: Julius Amos, accused of larceny, was recently ar- rested by Officer George Fleteher, who, with hia prisoner, got into @ skiff, intending to cross the river from the Mississippi side. fter getting in the boat Amos became stub- orn and refused to row. By this time the boat was some distance from the shore and the officer could not put aside bis weapons without placing himself in the power of his prisoner. They began drifting down the river. The officer placing his plstois on the seat, seized the oars, when Amos sprang on him and grabbed one of the weapons. A struggle ensued, the pistol being discharged one. The officer succeeded in wrenching it from Amos and fired at him, r him in the arm. Night had fallen, andthe fight was resumed in the darkness, Amos grappling with the officer. The skiff was at length over- turned, throwing the men into the river. Fletcher was caught in the current and swept down stream, but caught some vines and suc- ceoded in saving his life. Amos has not been heard of, and is believed to have drowned. OUR NEIGHBORS, Items of Interest and Gossip From the Ad 15 jacent Towns.

DOINGS IN THE COURTS. OPINIONS. HANDED DOWN AND JUDGMENTS RENDERED BY JUDGE BARCLAY. — Petition of the Glasgow Heirs Against the Condemnation of Papin street Dismissed Victory Over a Fire Insuranee Com- pany After a Three ears“ Fight— Notes in Court. Judge Barclay this morning dissolved the in- junction and dismissed the petition of the Glasgow heirs, who sought to prevent the condemnation of Papin street, between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, where the first-named thorough- fare bounds the south side of the Shickle, Harrison & Howard Iron O0. s works. A D111 was introduced in the Council] condemning the property, and the Assembly passed it. Judge Barelay in d- missing the petition says: ‘‘Under the present laws of this State and charter of this city, the latter has the right to vacate a public street by ordinance, thereby releasing the city from the duty of maintaining the street in repair, and from liability for any neglect of such duty. To the Municipal Assembly is delegated the power to exercise such right, and itis the duty of the Assembly to exercise that power as trustees for the people whose representatives they are. Under ez- isting instructions of the law on this subject, no inquiry as tothe motives or intentions of the membsrs of the Assembly is permissible. The ordinance having been Ar Bnovee’ and being within the power of the embly in the premises, is valid in so far as it vacates the street, that is to say. insofar as it sur- ur } renders the control and corresponding lability of the city for the street. The effect of thus vacating the street is a question not properly before the Court at present, and is hence not diseussed. The injunction will be dissolved and the petition dismissed,’’ — Insurance Company Defeated, The case of Mary Froehly against the North St. Louis Mutual Fire Insuranee Co. has been dragging ite slow length along in the Circuit Courts since the October term of 1885, when the amended petition of the plaln- tiff was led. Judge Barclay, this morning, overruled the motions of defendant for a new trial, and in arrest of judgment, ordering payment to the laintiff of $1,787.75. The original demand at he time of filing the sult was for $1,500, with interest 10 per cent additional by reason of neglect of payment, and costs, the plaintiff having on March 19, 1884, suffered the loss b fire of the two-story frame build ing and stable, insured bY the defendant company inthe amount of $1,500. The property when insured had been owned by Mary Froehly and her husband, Joseph, but had been acquired ay the wile, Decem 22, 1880, the company being notified, the peti- tion set forth, and making the necessary transfer on the face of the policy, The company’s defense was based on Joseph 41 s lack, of a title in to the . n Hie application for insurance, his company, in violation of its by-laws, a mort- gage baving been executed on A ri a violation of defendant’s charter, and that for these reasons the policy be deciared void.

The Market Rises Up Frem Its Lethargy and the Agents Rejoice Very Londly—Sales Made and Prices Obtained—The Prize Awarded for ‘‘Eimwood Park,” _ Although interrupted at times by the dull ‘summer season when many prominent citizens and numbers of the mostent ising Operators are away enjoying themselves at pleasure re- ports the demand for real estate is fair—quite as good, in fact, as could be expected under existing circumstances. Yesterday the deed to a piece of unim- proved Grand avenue property, which rep- fresents a $36,000 traneaction, was passed be- tween the principals and filed for record. The ground conveyed belonged to Dr. John bell. Ith frontage of 118 feet by 1 of 898 on the east line of Grant . commencing at a point 100 feet ot the Bock Church, a very eligible la 4, which ‘has long since been looked upon having the merit of much future appreciation by reason of many substantial and costly improvements, beth of a public and private charac- ter, that have lately been erected on the avenue in near proximity | te to the section de- scribea, the new High School being one of the proposed improvements for that ithe John kB Burson of Mancie, Ind., bab purchaser.

OTHER SALES MADE TO-DAF¥. m. C. Wilson 4 Co. say the inquiry for residence sites at Benton indicates that prop- erty there is not only in demand, but increasing in value. As evi- dence of this the firm reports the ‘sale of George Roger’s six-room frame cot- tage, with 938x188 feet of ground in Rogers’s subdivision, for $2,000 to Catherine Reily, who is going to make the cozy little place her home.

The premises new renting at the rate of annum, belonged to Patrick Carroll, who — conveyed his title to Mrs. Anna G. Eberhard for $3,900 cash.

Theophile Papin, who is thoroughly iden- tified with many public mprovemonte in different parts of the city, and a gentieman who takes special pride io the excellent record Olive street has made in becoming the most celebrated retail thoroughfare in the city, * that yes- terday he counted twenty-eight different places on Olive street between Thirteenth and Grand avenue where stone and granitoid pavement has just been, or le now being laid in compliance with the special ordinance. The aggregate length of these re- spective jobs is about 2,700 feet. In addition to these he knows of contracts for 1,300 feet more which the contractors are too much crowded to commence at once. ‘‘ELMWOOD PARK.” Miss Rebie Peck the Lucky Contestant for the 825 Prize.

AMANDA TOWNSEND, The Romance of a Kefined Woman Who Married a Country Clown. By Telegraph to the Post-DisPaTcu. MIDDLETOWN, N. T., July 11.--The death of an inmate of the Chenago County Alms-house brings to a close a strange and interesting life story. The maiden name of the deceased was Amanda Townsend, and she was born and reared in New York City, where her nearest of kin, the Townsends and Oolgates, are people of wealth and high standing. Asa child she received all the advantages of education in books and training in social accomplishments that influence could pro- cure for her, and to these nature added rare personal charms. While she was yet in her teens her hand was sought in marriage od 1 young man whom she favored, but who failed to be acceptable to her parents, She was sent to Kichfield Springs to spend the summer and probably to separate her from her lover, and while there was informed that be on whom she had fixed ber affections had proved faithless and renounced her. She laid the blame of her disappointment in love on her parents and friends and in a fit of anger and spite she eloped with and married an ignorant and un- couth young fellow, named Harvey Deyo, who bad been doing menial jobs around her board- ing bouse at the Springs, and with whom she bad struck up a chance acquaintance. The elopement made a stirring sensation foratime. The ill-matchec pair went to the vicinity of the husband’s native place in Chenago County, and ina lonely spot, on the side of the ountain between Oxford and Coventry, they built a small rude cabin which they occupied for nearly a score of years thereaitter as a home. At first the young wife’s relatives used every possible induce- ment and entreaty to persuade to forsake her spouse and coarse and uncongenial surround- ings and return to a home ot refinement and ease, but all efforts In this direction were un- availing and ultimately abandoned. What- ever may have inspired her course, whetber conjugal afiection or pride, or resentment at supposed wrongs. the educated and re- fined woman accepted isolation and poverty and stuck by the side of the uncouth rustic she had chosen for a husband to the last. The final separation came in the county Alms-house, to which the pair had been re- moved inasick and helpless condition from their cabin on the mountainside. Her kindred in the city, shocked to hear that she had be- come a charge upon public charity, visited ber and renewed their offers ofa home with them, but sher still declined to be parted from ber husband. She died one day last week in the Alms-bouse and an undertaker cowmissioned by her relatives gave her remains respectable and fitting burial in the rural cemetery at West Coventry. Free to All.

A Saloon-Keeper Compelled to Discontinue Business, Pending an Appeal. BURLINGTON, Io., July 11.—A decision of more than ordinary importance and involving anew point under the prohibitory liquor law of Iowa has been rendered by Judge Phelps of the District Court. Two years ago a saloon- keeper whose place of business was enjoined as a nuisance, appealed to the Iowa Supreme Court, and after filing a supersedeas bond, continued the traffic. The in- unction was sustained, and the saloon- eeper again gave bond, carried his case to the United States Supreme Court where it not likely to be reached fora — or two yet. Recently proceedings were rought to have him arrested and fined for contempt of court in continuing the illegal traffic, notwithstanding the injunction. is defense was that pending the deeision of the Federal Court the injunction did not apply, but the District Court now decides that the in- junction must stand and that the saloon must close. The saloon-keeper at once closed up and others will follow suit, as they admit that further resistance to the law isa useless. Four Dollars to Chicago and Back.

O’NEILL’S SIDE. THE BEOWNS’ LEFT FIELDER PRONOUNCED SICK BY A PHYSICIAN. His Trouble, One of the Stomach, Will Not Prevent Him Working—Thne Trade With Kansas City Denied—A Prize Fight Be- tween Two Actresses—Sporting News— Turf Matters—Base Ball Gossip. The affair of O’Neill and Byrne as printed in yesterday’s Post-DisPaATCH created much comment about the city last night. In fact, O’Neilland O’Neill’s work in the field have been the talk of the town for some days past. Public sentiment on the matter is divided. Some think that O’Neill has been wronged in the charges made against him to the effect that he has deen playing for dis release, while others are of the opinion that the censures have been correct, O'Neill himself has said nothing about the matter, but has kept his peace. He did not play in yesterday’s game and this fact caused some comment. This comment was enlarged upon when the announcement was made m a morning paper to-day to the effect that O'Neill was traded last night to Kansas ray Second Baseman Barkley , coming to St. Louis in his stead. This statement, whatever its source, is strenuously denied b the management of the 8t. Louis Club whic claims that there is not a word of truth in the whole story and that the great fielder will continue to play on the St. Louis Club. O'Neill hſiuself spoke of the matter last evening after the game with Brooklyn. He did not seem put out with the strictures on his laying, but complained only that he had not een given a hearing. He was willing to ac- knowledge that he had played bad ball and, furthermore, that if the charges made against him in the matter of playing for bis release were true, that he deserved all the criticism made upon his work. This, however, he was not willing to admit. It is better, perhaps, to let O’ Neill talk tor himself. Everybody has been jumping on me. ‘said he, because 1 have not been playing as well as I did formerly. Well, I baven’t; but it is not because I didn’t want to. Iam sick, and have been sick for some time. I believe that Il must have malarial fever, because when a ball comes at me in the fleld my head swims, and when I look up at the sky it seems almost impossible for me to judge the ball as ] should do to catch it. I don’t be- lieve that you will deny that my eyes or face look as though I was a man in fit condition to go out and play good base ball. It is not right to Dlame aman because heis sick. Hecan’t help being sick and no more canl. Now, as for playing for my release, I want you to let me say a word. Ido not deny that Bushong wrote me a letter. There was nothing in it beyond a simple mention of the matter. Cer- tainly not enough to turn my head. I will give youthat letter to publish if you want it. As for Byrne he has not written to me. Besides, if Brooklyn was after me it is not likely thatI would play bad ball. I think that a man who plays for his release acts like ababy. Iam satisfied to play in St. Louis and am not anxious to go elsewhere. I don’t see any reason why should. You can’t blame me if Idon’t remain in perfect health year in and year out in hot and cold weather. I know I’m big und strong, but big and strong men areasapt to get sick as little and weak men. I will swear to you and pledxe you my word that I have played as well as I couid and will do the beat lean in the future. Wait until this fever goes away and you will see that a mistake has been made. I want to deny that lever said thatI didn’t care tocatch files for St. louis. Ididn’t say it. Now, I'm willing tosubmit to a doctor’s examination, and if the doctor doesn’t say I’m sick I'll admit everything you want me to, and say that I have deserved everything said of me.“ : When O’Neill put this last proposition he did not think that the test would come so soon, but it came this morning. At Mr. Von der Ahe’s request the chief physician at the Sisters’ Hospital called on ONeill and the big fielder submitted to an examination. That examination developed the fact that he was not affected with malarial fever, but that he had a bad case of stomach trouble which would require some time and care to radically overcome. The ailment, while it may account for O’Neill’s errors in nis position, will not, in the doctor’s opinion, necessitate a cessation of work, but he can recover as well on the feld as off. He will, therefore, continue to play with the club. These developments go far to soften the feel- ing against the big fielder himself, but it does not in any way apologize for Mr. Byrne’s cute tricks. The facts connected with the case still stand and certainly cannot be said to look well for the Brooklyn man, however in- nocent the player may be. Lost the Fourth. The Browns won the game yesterday in the ninth inning, and it was lost again in that same inning by the batting of the Brooklyns and the errors of St. Louis. The batteries were King and Milligan for 8t. Louis and Caruthers and Bushong for Brooklyn. St. Louis scored 4runs, 8 hits and 6 errors. Brooklyn scored 5 runs, 9 hits and 3 errors. Base Ball Abroad. The results of yesterday’s games were: In the American Association: At Cincinnati— Cincinnati, 5; Athletics, 4. At Louisville— Louisville, 7; Cleveland, 4. At Kansas City— Baltimore, 12; Kunsas City, 1. In the National League: At Indianapolis— Philadelphia, 2; Indianapolis, 1. At Pitts- burg—New York, 2; Pittsburg, 0. At Detroit Detroit, 4; Washington, 0. At Chicago— Chicago, 6; Boston, 1. Grand Stand Chat. Baltimore to-morrow. . The Baltimores will arrive to-morrow morn- ng. Joe Herr promises to become a batter with avengeance. He is hitting the ball hard. Old man Burdock fell over himself twice yesterday, but put his man out just the same. Tip O'Neill plays to-morrow, and he says he bebe buckle down and play ball in his old-time style. Manager Barnie of the Baltimores arrived in the city this morning and is stopping atthe Lindell. Brooklyn will probably drop two out of four games in Kansas City. Ferguson remains in St. Louis. Dunlap has had the bandage removed from his face. He is getting along nicely and will probably play in three or four days. Just as soon as Anson betsasuit of clothes with amanhe gives the order to the tailor and has the fun of wearing the rig all sum- mer. McCarthy has nearly recovered his recent iliness. e is getting back in his old form and will continue to pile up stolen bases and timely hits, Ex-President Stearns of the Detroit Club has become a skiliful lawn tennis player. It is said that he is training foram atch with Al Spalding, and Stearns will win too. Whatever he does, he does well. The American Association scheme of double umpires with one player from each club was nota glittering success at Kansas City, and it won't be anywhere else. It will be a case of dog eat dog from the start. Sam Barkley, manager of Kansss Olty, wrote President Von der Ahe this morning to the effect that his team would play the Browns two postponed games in St. Louis July 16 and 20. heir series will be five games instead of three. a The O' Neill-Barkley matter is a dead -open- and-shut fake. Not the first word has ever been passed between the two clubs for O’ Neill’s release to Kansas City. In fact, Sam Barkley is manager of Kansas City and he would not be transferred for any money. Latham met President Von der Ahe yester- day on Grand avenue. The third baseman was iy a bay stepper to a 1 duggy. **Ah! Mr. Von der Ahe,“ said he, ‘‘lam going out fora bitofaride. You’ll excuse me from ructice this morning. The boss presi- ent’’ smiled and said nothing. A New York exchange says: Clarkson is still very much dissatisfied with not receiving a portion of the money paid by Boston for his release. The Boston pitcher, while tia- tions were pending, ered President Spaid- ing $7,500 for his „ but the Ob ul wanted the whole ple. and he 1 it. When the Saginaws released Clarkson they gave him $1,000 of the amount received. Comiskey and F son hada brief tilt * terday when Foutz followed Pinckney with a hit to Comiskey, King covering first base. If ever a runner was out that runner was Fouts. Not out, said the umpire. ‘‘What!’’ said Comiskey. ‘‘Not out,’’ re ruson. „Well, 1 ne he was,’’ replied the captain. all.

The management of the Pittsburg Ball Club is threatened with boycott by members of unions, owing to Singer, Nimick & Co. start- ing up their mill with non- union men, the belief being that President Nimick of the base ball club isa member ofthe firm. Prominent Knights of Labor agitators disoussed the movement Friday night and advocated a boycott, but decided to wait before taking decisive action. President Nimick says he is not amember of the iron firm, and that he never has been. He also claims to be in favor of labor organizations, and will employ none but unlon men. This item has been on its travels for some time: ‘Buck’ Ewing is charged with having Eat sely dropped a ball four times in the hi RY ge series in order to improve his record of ‘assists’ and bulld — Counor’s put outs.“ Poor ‘Buck.’ What will he be charged with next? Just now he is exciting the ire of several scribes in various cities use he is hustling to win games for New York. He was accused of ‘workin 7 umpire’ in Detroit. Horrible thought! * atacrime! ‘Buck’ is paid several thousands per annum for win- ning games of ball, and he is trying hard to e#rn his money. If ‘Buck’ found an umpire he could ‘work’ and didn’t doit he wouldn’t be much of a captain. They are hunting for files on Ewing, but can’t find them, even with — reportorial microscope.’’[—New York ress. Is there any ‘probability of your every cap- taining the New York Club again?’’ was asked of Ward the other day. No, I do not think there is, and, what’s more, Ido not want the position. I wanted my release this season, but John B. Day would not give it to me. I am still anxious for it, and Mr. Day has half promised to let me go atthe close of the season. I want to remain about another season on the diamond field. My idea is to get hold of a good club and put some of my ideas into effect. Iam confident that they are right, but thus far I have had no opportunity to prove it. the world moves, andI can note some progress to some of my ideas. Let metry the 9 and give me exclusive control of a good elub fora year, and if I cannot increase their efficiency itis because my theory is wrong.’’ cinnati: ** Chicago Turf News. A dispatch from Chicago gives the following bits of turf gossip about the meeting there: Ed Corrigan started nothing at the present meeting, and will not do so. He had a tit with the management last year, but whether that prompted the non-appearance of his horses this season is unknown to outsiders. His animals are quartered at the West Side track, and will participate in the meeting which commences there ten — 2 trom now. The stable is nota strong one this year, but is probably strong enough to pay expenses in the sort of company that will runat the West Side. Corrigan will be one of the three man- agers of the meeting, and they expect to make considerable money out of the venture. The big King Ban colt Jaubert, an unreliable performer, won a selling race last week, beat- ing Birthday and others. He was run up from $900 to $1,400, at which figure he was purchased by R. Tucker, whose horse, Birthday, ran sec- ond. He started since, a hot favorite, but was beaten off, not getting a place. Speculators are ordinarily airaid to touch bim. Baldwin’s stake winnings here are consider- ble more than those of all others put together. The Californian bas almost uniformly been quite successful here since the inaugural meeting, and this time he will be more suc- cessfulthan ever. His great colt, the Em- eror of Norfolk, has won a small fortune for im already, and if he does not go amiss is likely to add considerably to it before the season closes. The Emperor is in the Travers’ stakes at Saratoga the opening day, and it will virtually be a gift to him, see- ing there are no penalties and allowances. After that he will be sent to Monmouth Park, where he is entered in some rich stakes. Baldwin’s stable winnings last season were $103,000. From all indications they will go be- yond thatfigure this year, since he has al- ready $61,000 to his credit. Fine Trotters Burned. DANVILLE, Ky., July 11.—The large training stable of William Rue was burned late last night. Thirty-three head of fine trotters were consumed. The total loss will be $75,000.
