Inspecter Huxley—Mr. Gladstone en the Papal Question—The Demand for Ma- caulay’s Works—Battle Between British Troops and the Karens Tribe in Burmah —The King of Holland—Foreign. | Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, January 8.—Besides the forthcom- ing Lord Mayor’s banquet, Minister Phelps will be entertained previous to his. departure for America at a number of gatherings. One of the most important is the banquet to be given him Janugry 16, by the Fishmongers’ Company. This company is one of the few old city guilds which really exercises trade func- tions, one of their duties being the de- struction of all fish brougnt to London that are unfit for food. It is re- markable also among the city companies for ita attachment to civil and religious liberty. At the present moment the two obief Officials, the prime warden and renter warden, Sir James Lawrence and John Warr, ure both Unitarians, the non-conformists forming a Garibaldi’s visit to London he was entértained by the Fishmongers, and a bustof Garibaidi acorns the vestibule of the company’s hall. INSPECTOR HUXLEY’S APPEAL. Inspector Huxley, as Inspector of Fisheries, puts forth an appeal in favor of cloging cer- tain areas against trawling for a few years in order to obtain definite evidence of the effects of trawling. He laments ignorance on the subject of sea fisheries even among officials of some of the fish culture éstablishments, but rejoices that in a few years, thanks to the labors of the Marine Biological Association and the United States Fish Commission, some- thing like a solid foundation for future legis- lative action, or inaction, will be laid. MACUAULAY’S WORKS. The demand for Macaulay’s works 16 so large that the Longmans have at last ee a popular edition at a price little more thai the cost of the paper and binding. Writing re- cently to a friend who wrote an essay in defense of Macaulay, Trevelyan said ‘‘it is ex- traordinary how the world, by the increasing demand for Macaulay’s writings, shows its agreement with you and bow few critics unite in that opinion.’’ Trevelyan proceeds to say that he has just come away from a rather rowdy debate in the Commons, and, as some- times happens, had a great rush of regret at having abandoned literature for politics. BILLY MALONEY. The Exiled Boodler Suddenly Leaves London and Goes to Brussels. ) 5 conearrons to the Post-Disvateoh. * „January s. -The elusive Billy Ma- loney suddenly skipped off to Brussels. Bun- day night without saying good-bye to any- body. Billy has been very ill and very miser- able most of the time since he has been in London, and some Americans who used to know him in New York have gone out of their way to be kind to him. Billy was very fond of going to a little American oyster-house near the Piccadilly circus. It was the only place in which he could be induced to take a meal outside of his hotel, and he never went even there without ib son to keep him company. He was very cautious, and looked with suspicion even on friends who were disposed to treat him with the utmost kindness. Just before Christmas Billy suffered from a severe abcess and had to submitto a surgical operation. For a few days the prospect of his recovery seemed very dismal. ‘‘The doctors tell me that I am very ill,’’ he said to your correspondent who called on him, ‘‘but I hope that I shail pull through. it is bad enough to have to live so far away from home, but it would be dreadful to die here. Billy’s chief comfort during his iliness was his little daughter whom he almost worships and for whose sake he is anxiogs to get back to New York. She is not old enough to under- stand yet why her father does not take her home. Billy was here when word of his son-in-law’s death reached him and he was very much affected by the news. New Yorkers who remember Billy around the City Hall five years ago, would hardly know himnow. His hair and beard are almost snow white, but he is stilla New Yorker from head to heels, A WRETCHED LIFE. am innocent of all wrong, he sald once, „hut I will never go back to New York so long as any oid friends are in danger of gettiag into prison through my testimony.’’ Billy took occasion several times to say some very bitter things about Waite. Full- graff he does not blame so much, because he was putonthe rack. From Billy’s descrip- tion the life of the boodlers in Canada is wretched and lonesome. Lennan suffers hor- ribly from rheumatism. All of them are living in hopes of getting back to New York and firmly believed that Col. Fellows’ election as District Attorney was the dawning of brighter days. The spécial session of the court fur the trial of the boodle cases isa crusher to them. Maloney’s real destination is probably not Brussels, though he left word athis hotel to bave his letters sent there. When he first came here he said that he should return to Canada by way of Japan and Van- couver, and thence to the continent by the Canadian Pacific. England. MB. GLADSTONE EXPLAINS. Loxpor, January 8.—Mr. Gladstone has written from Naples to the Pall Mall Gazetie with reference to his recent telegram, which, as published, reads as follows: The Tablet es version of my letter to the Marquis de Riso, touching the position of the Pope, is untrustworthy. The statement that I recommend international ar- bitration upon the Roman question is inoor- rect under the present ciroumstances.’’ Mr. Gladstone in his letter says thatthe telegram should have ended with the word ‘‘incor- rect. The additional words, ‘‘under the present circumstances,’’ he says, belonged to a private communication. Mr, Stead, editor of the Gazette, commenting on the letter, says that even now he cannot understand Mr.Giad- stone’s meaning. ABANDONED ALL HOPR.

A force of 100 military and an equal number of police were present to dispossess the tenants by force, if necessary, but they were not needed as no resistance was offered. An army surgeon was also present. The evictions on the estate of Mr. Wybrant’s at Oliphert, Falcarragn, County Donegal, were concluded to-day.

THE REPORT DISCREDITED. OTTAWA, Ontario, January 8.—A cable dis- patch published here, reporting the appoint- ment of Sir George Baden-Powell as Pienipo- tentiary to Ottawa and Washington, on behalt of the British Government in the fisheries question, occasioned considerable su — iu official circles. The report is altogether dis- credited, as the Government has no advicee whatever of such an appolotment having been made. The imperial authorities invariably seek the advice of the Dominion Government before taking an 2 step by which Canada’s in- terests will De affected, and it is certain that upon such a vital uestion as that of the fish- eries no action will be taken without consulte- tion with Ottawa. The feeling here is that nothing further will be done in the way of negotiation until the Harrison regime shall have commenced.,. THE ELECTRIO SUGAR FRAUD. Mrs. Friend and Her Fellow Conspirators Continue to Be Defiant. DETROIT, Mich., January 8.—The Evening Journals special from Ann Arbor says: Mrs. Oiive O. Friend, widow ef thie late Prof. Heary C. Friend of electric sugar fame, who is the commander ofthe Garrison now holding the fort against all comers, appeared in this city after dark last night atthe office of her attor- neys. With herwas a mysterious stranger, who by some is alleged to have been one of the former workmen at the alleged ‘‘réfinery’’ in Brooklyn. Only the angels and Mr. Sawyer and Mra. Friend know what was done atthe meeting. Mrs. Friend left town as mysteriously as she came, and is probably with friends not far from Ann Arbor. A mysterious stranger, who has been here for several days the Electric Sugar ton, left for Ypsilanti on the 2:40 yesterda in company with a depnty sheriff ofthat place. It is believed here that Cottrill, who has been trying diplomacy thus far. means to try harsher means soon. It is predicted that if he does ar- rests and counter arrests wl follow. W. E. Howard has not been seen here or at Milan for several days, and while it is alleged be is in New York, it is thought he is either in Ohio or Canada. Mrs. Howard and the Hal- steads are at Milan, ready to repel any attempt made to seize any of the Howard or Friend property there. The title of it all now rests in Mrs. Howard and Mrs. Friend. Prot. Friend, in fact, never owned a foot of land in Michigan and when be died there was, consequently, no estate in en gan to bettie.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., January 8.—Cora Belle Fegan, a pretty girl of 13, calied last night at the office of Mayor Richards of New Albany and told a remarkable story, She said that when 7 years of age she was playing in the streets of New York City, where she lived, with some companions, one of whom was named Eva Slater. When on her way home she was kidnapped by a negro and taken to Nashville, Tenn. here she was kept for six in old shanty. The negro, whom she knew no other name than that of ‘‘Charies,’’ never permitted her to go out and treated her with the greatest cruelty. In July last, se the girl says, her jailer returned one evening very much intoxicated and while he was uncon- scious she made her escape.

A rope about an inch and a halt in thiekness was stretched across the street. It was this rope which had drawn the crowd. Oneend was attached to the pipe on the fire escape at the seventh story window in the middie of Rosenheim, Levis & Co.“ e building on the northeast corner of Ninth and Washington avenue, and the other end was twisted tightly around the lamppost on the southwest corner, just in front of the Simmons Hardware Co. When it is stated that the window of the building at which the rope was tied is situated on Ninth street near the alley between Lucas and Washington avenues, the immense distance between the two attachments and the length of the rope oan be imagined. AN IMMENSE STRETCH. Viewing it from the corner of the street thy thing looked like the string leading up to some mammoth kite. The employes in thse big buildings about the neighborhood had lifted up the window sashes and crowded the apertures, craning their necks to get a bettet view of what was going on.

The to Mr. Shields is especialiy condemned by the ladies who procured 250 of the names, and the gen- tlemen who secured the remainder. ‘‘The persons,’’ said Mr. D. G.

At that time we were receiving a great number of young people in our church and it was thought that MR. WILSON’S PREACHING ‘was not of theetyle best calculated to please and do good te the immature.

CLEVELAND, O., January 8.—It is reported here that Chief Engineer Arthur of the Broth- erheod of Locomotive Engineers, will resign his office at the expiration of bis present term. The reason given is thatthe present policy of the Brotherhood, especially as regards the management of the Burlington strike, is not and has not been in acco with his views. Mr. Artbur ia considered quite well to do and is not in need of the salary attached to the of- fice. It ie well known that he has contemplated retiring to private life for years past, and the trouble incident tothe recent strike on the Burlington has, it is said, hastened his de- termination. Mr. Arthur is now on bis way West to spend several weeks on the Pacific coast. FOUNDATION FOR THE REPORT Curcaco, III, January 8,—Referring to the rumor that Chief Arthur of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers intends to resign, Chairman Cavener of the committee which bas just settled the Burlington strike, said this morning: think the ramor has a good foundation. Mr. Arthur has been dissatisfied for along time, and the outcome of the ‘Q’ strike is an additional thorn in bis flesh. eee ina morning paper, Mr. Cavener continued, ‘‘that Mr. Arthur is not satisfied with the settlement of the strike, because he was opposed to it from the start. That state- ment is faise. Mr. Arthur worked for six months prior to the strike on the d' road to bring that result about. After he had given his consent to the strike and four weeks bad passed he 4 to get nervous and wanted to deciare the strike off. This the members of the organization would not agree to, and, be- cause of his attitude, the committee was ap- pointed at the Richmond conveption.° ; The Carpet Workers’ Strike. NEW YORK, January 8.—There were few signs of business in the carpet factory of Hig- gins & Co. this morning, while throngs of workmen might have been seen on the street corners in the vicinity, discussing the strike.

At an early hour mewbers of the Na- tional Executive Committee of the Un:ted Progressive Carpet Workers’ Union visited the Hi in- factory where they learned that their demand for a restoration of the prices in effect prior to December 17 had not been ac- quiesced in, and word wus accordingly sent in to the employes and the great strike began.

PLY THEM WITH TICKETS, Judge Cooley’s Admonition to Railroad Managers Disregarded Entirely— A Profit- able Trade Given the Brokers—The Clear- ing-House Scheme—An Important Meei- ing of Rallway Magnates and Bankers. CuicaGo, III., January &.—A local paper ye: In«piteof Judge Cooley's recent ad- monition to railroad managers in regard to the evils of the ticket scalping trade, the trouble has assumed greater proportions than before. The promise that no more tickets should be placed in scalpers’ hands, and that those in their ession should be withdrawn has not been kept. Not only have the tickets not been withdrawn, but more have been placed with them. A. month ago Ticket Broker Frank had 950 tickets from Chicago to Kansas Cit 1 which were sold to him by the Ml ny at $6.25 each, — ag the tariff rate was $12.50. The other Kansas City lines had onlv a few tickete on the market. The Wabash tickets were found to un- Um ted. Receiver McNuita tried to buy them, but Frank refused to sell. Before suit was brought avainst Frank a conference was held between the Wabash people aud Frank, and i was given ont that the latter bad ag to return the unlimited = tickets. It now transpires, however, that a deal was wade which virtually ‘places Frank in a better position than beiore. The 950 un- limited r tickets in bis hands were re- deemed at $6.25, but in exchanxve each of the five roade between Chicago and Kansas City presen with bim 200 limited tickets dated some ime abend, at $6.25, so that Frank has now about 1,000 tickets over all of the lines be- tween Chicago and Kansas City, while before be had only 960 over the Wubash. i y the Wabash com- into this deal was that it s by which the Wabash en out of the market and l uld be placed on an equal footing. Nos, rder to evable Frank and the other ticket 8 to gell their tickets at a large pro, the railroads have advanced their rates vo . The scualpers sell the tickets which they got for $6.25 for 511 or i „50 less than people who go to regular railroad. offices have to pay. All the scalpere are said to well stocked with cheap tickets and there is vo immediate prospect of their supplies runoing short. The Interstate Commerce Commission should at once take steps to.compel the roads to make the same rates to the public av their tickets are being sold for by the scalpers. The Clearing-House Scheme. Kew XorkK,..Jabpary 8.— The Times says: The bag ratiwdy olearing- house scheme is to be pushed through, even more rapidly than was anticipated. Jay Gould said yesterday that a formal meeting for the purpose of agree- ing upon some definite plan for the perman- ent maintenance of rates“ would be beid at 11 o’clock to-day at the residence of J. Pierre- pont Morgan. Those who have thus far sic- nified their intention of attending the meet- ing. are C. P. Huntington, President of the Suugbern Pacific; W. B. Strong, Prest- dent of the Atchison, ＋ eka & Sxnta Fe; Jay Gould, President of e Missouri Pa- cifie; ©. F. Winslow, President of the St. Louis & San Francisco; R. R. Cable, President of the Chicago, Rock Island 4 Pacific; Vice- President Bond of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincey; Charfée Francis Adams, President of the Union Pacific;C G. Magoun, representing Kidder, Peabody & Co. and the Barings of Lon- don; J. Pierrepont the „representing Drex- el, Morgen & Co. anaJ Morgan & Co, of Lon- don, and J. C. Brown, representing Brown Bros. and Brown, Shipley & Co. of London. These are the gentiemen who met during the latter part of December and agreed to the res- toration aud maintenance of rates. The agree ment bas already proved unsatisfactory and the meeting to-day will be forthe purpose of formally adopting the policy as outlined at the informal Wallstreet . last Satur- day. All the above named banking firms and neurly all the railroad presidents are strongly in favor of forming the vroposed clearing- house. The Chicazo & Alton, Chicago & Northwestern and some of the other roads in the 8 however, still stand out firm against such a combination, and Seolare that they Will never join issues. These roads, however, will not be allowed to deter the Southwest- ern lines from entering into the scheme, * the clearing house plan, as outlined by H. Wood, is considered es good as adopted 2 among those lines. All others that are in competins territory will be forced in it possi- ble, and the lines confined to strictly North- western traffic will be unmolested for the present. The meeting to-day is expected to be a turbulentone. It was suid yesteraay in Wall street that Presidente Strong of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, and Miller of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, would be asked to re- sign, and that in the event of their refusal to do so, asuficient number of proxies are held to unseat them. Some of the Wall street banking firms profess to have bitter feelings against both these officials for the loose man- ner in which the affairs of their respective roads have been managed ot late. The clear- ing-house pian §itseif sets forth that the clearing-bouse should be chartered and capitalized to a sufficient extent to insure ab- solute safety and security to the railroads whose immense competitive business would be placed in its hands for settlement between the roads. A Cleartug- house Committee’’ will be formed, composed of one delegate from each ok tats UbLbaye some charge of classifi- be rexulation of car service, the ao 8 I claims for loss, damage vercharge “and the division of expenses and of revenue; in other words, the commit- tee s duties will be to control the entire rail - road traffic of ail the lines represented and to pool ali the business, tnus doing away com- pletely with all competition. THE CONFERENCE. The fact that to-day's meeting of railroad Presidents and bankers was held at the house of one of the leading bankers in the city gives the keynote tothe object of the conference, which is being devoted almost exclusively to ferreting out the responsibility for the recent cutting of rates in the West in violation of the, compact entered into in thiscity on De- cember 21. Ihe meeting began at the resal- dence of Mr. J. ,Plerrepont Morgan, on Fourth avenue, atllo’ciock. One of the first to ar- rive wee 1 oa of the Rock Island road at be possessed of docu- men fdy vi — chat is expected to createa derbarsth rte retirement of high Missouri Pacifie oftiatalss "That the bankers are very much in earnest in the investigation was made evident by Mr. Magoun of Kidder, Peabody & Co., following close on the heels of l’res dent Cable. Mr. Morgan, of course, represented the firms of which he is the head, Brown & Shipley were alse repre- sented. At 12 o’clock the conference was still in progress, and it was thoucht that an 1 mi ht be reached by 1 o’ clock. DJOURNED UNTIL THURSDAY Atlo ‘lock an adjournment was taken until Taursday, when the matter will be further en- teredupon. President Cable stated to a re- | porter that there was nothing donr at to- te 44 0 session beyond a general discussion of es in hand, but that judging from the ex- — ag on of opinions to-day he thought the result would be the discomfiture | of the violators of the agreement of In regard to the meeting the Post says that it is accepted in Wall — as a foregone conclusion that — nd 1 ater some sort of organization would be — that would 4 — the rights of stockholders by tak ing the power of changing or cutting rates out of the hands of subordinate officials. | e.

ALMOST TOO MUCH MONEY. A Fund Very Easily Raised to Give Burial to Mrs. Henner. The appeal to the charitable in this city made yesterday by the Post DISPATCH on- cerning the pitiful case of Mrs. Robert Hen- ner, the seamstress who died an object of poverty Sunday at No. 1807 Olive street, was not made in vain, The efforts of the two good ladies who were the first to undertake to raise a fund large enough to bury the remains were ve successful indeed. They found tha the statement that they bad beén treated cruelly by those to whom — applied tor help, they say, was alto- get er correct. They easily managed to col- et sufficient money to bury the woman. The amount required was 848, which was the charge made by the uncertaker who did the work. They collected more than this amount, sothat after all the expenses were paid they had a nice little sum — 1 buy some clothes for the little . rl, now left orphans by the sath 15 their mother. The notice which the case received in the PosT- DISPATCH yesterday served as an excul- lent introduction for the ladies, and they were generously received wherever at ap · piled. Tho Co-Operative savesy & nder- takers’ Association generousiy :ffered to- duy to supply a coffin for Mre. Henner's remains and also a grave in Bellefontaine Cemetery free of charge, but this kind help came a little late as the undertaker had already done the work and fixed his price. Mr. Jos. J. Muilaly, the wall- known broker, took the ladies to the Mining Stock Exchange and a goodly sum was ~ may there among the brokers in a very short tim The remaius were laid away at rest to-day in the Holy Ghost Cemetery and, after the funeral expenses bad been paid, the ladies hada small balance. This money,. part of which went to pay the expenses of the funeral, was collected by the. ladies themselves. Some of it being brought to the house by many charitably-minded per- sons, who had read of the ease in the Post DISPATCH. But the money received at the oftice of the Post-DIgsPATCH — By that eollected by the ladies. The Post-DISPATOCH now holds the sum of $87.60, which was all re- ceived at thie office to day. Over and above the money received by the ladies, the Fosr- DISPATCH is in receipt of the following dona- net Hattie Fin, Capt. W. 1 . . © 8SSSSS 888888888888 1 $87 Mr. Robert H. Nicol, the broker on ’Change, assed the hat around 'the floor’’ this morn ng and in a jiffy be had collected $31.50, which he turned over to the PostT-DisPpatTcH. The ladies are well satisfied with the result. No more money is needed for the woman or her children, and no more need be sent. The money sent in to the POST-DISPATCH and the balance left over after the funeral expenses from the amount collected by the ladies will be properly de- voted to the ch idren. If they are ad pted by any family it will be used to buy them = ing, etc., and will be anplied jodiciously the money will be siven them except $10, which the dying woman owed for board and which will be paid im accordance with her last wish.

What the Ethical Society is Doing for the Poor and Ignorant. The Workingmen’s Reading Rooms and lect- ure courses which were inaugurated last win- ter under the auspices of the Ethical Society, and to which the business men and the friends of the undertaking so liberally contributed, have now been in operation since March 3, 1888. The plan for this undertaking was conceived with a view of encouraging workmen in cul- tivating that other part of their life which bas not any direct connection’with their daily labor. The particular aim has been to stimu- late the intellectuai life of workingmen. It was understood from the outset that the plan should be carried by maintaining the strictest neutrality in matters of religion. No bias nor influence was to be exerted on the minds of the ns coming there either one way or the other on religious questions. These mat- ters are not diecussed at the meetings, and the ing matter, which may be either anti- or sectarianly religious, is excluded. To give stimulus to the intellectual life has been the supreme object of consideration. The committee issued a circular in the fall . Of 1887, explaining the need and advisability of this undertaking, and asking forthe sum of -000to make the first start in what they oped would become a growing movewent al! over the city. The response to the appeal was cordial and even s the sum asked for, as the contributions received a mounted to $1,085. Ata meeting of the committee held at the office of James Taussig it was agreed upon that Mr. N. O. Nelson should be the Treasurer and Mr. W. L. Sheidon the director of the reading rooms. The director made a careful search over the vari- ous districts of the city, and finally selected a iteof rooms on the second r of the Partitions n open every evening and all day ay throughout the year. The attendance been good and the average has been rapid! increasing. For the month of November f Was 952, for December it was 1,285. The total attendance forthe ten months since the first opening has been altogether 7,871.

In order to reach individuals af all ages, Monday evening has been set apart especially for boys. They were eager to come to the rooms from the very start. At first they came very frequently and in such numbrrs that it was found impossible to admit them regularly. Finally in the fall it was decided to set apart this one evening for their especial benefit. In order that an opportunity to reach the lads might not be lost on such oceasions a readin club for young boys has been starte and several ladies have volunteered to go down there Monday evenings and to read to them in groups in thelibrary. Visitors who may drop in on that occagion will find young lade assembled inthe rear room, listening eagerly to some short tale read to them by a lady friend. The reading matter is, of course, selected for the purpose of developing their taste and enlarging their feelings, while not being above the range of their interests. Without any direct sugges- tion from the outside there has grown up a roup of young men from 16 to 21 who have formed themselves into a club for the parpnes of improving themselves by reading and study. There are some twenty or thirty of these young men, consisting of those who have been accustomed to go to the reading - rooms. They meet on Tuesday evenings and, with the assistance of some leader, take up a story or biography for reading and discus- sion. FREE KINDERGARTEN. ‘ The Ladies’ Philanthropical Society has just begun to make a valuabie use of the rooms which heretofore have been unoccupied and unused in the daytime. They have found in the alleys and lanes of that neighoorhood families inthe extreme of poverty, In order to reach them by some means they dave opened there a free kindergarten for chil- dren under 6 years of age who cannot go to the kindergartens of the public schools. The children meet there forenoons under a regular teacher and her assistant, and receive lunch before their departure for home each day. ‘This is the only work of strict charity in r with the reading rooms. The ex- pense for the kindergarten is met by the ladies’ society and carried on exclusively by their own executive committee. The value of it, however, is manifest when one goes there and observes the children in the school. There is found, sometimes, the most refined natures among the young, though they may have come from homes that might be sald to be right out of the slums.’’ It is apparent of what value it must be to rescue these children atthe start from the inevitable degradation of their associations, by taking them at this timeof their lives and giving them iorafew hours each day a happy en- vironment, and thus saving In them that early refinement that would inevitably go and de- part forever as they grew upif it were not for this different kind of association. It is possi- ble that out ofthis work may grow an indus- trial school. The ladies have also organized a girls’ club, which meets at the rooms Satur- d»xy afternoon for the study of domestic economy. WORKINGMEN’S SELF CULTURE CLUB. The crowning feature of the undertaking was the effort made by the director of the reading-rooms to or“anize a group ot work- ingmen who should themselves gradually as- sume charge of all these various undertak- ings so that they should feel the work as their own work and a part of their own lives. For this purpose the director visited a few work- ingmen with whom be had acquaintance, ia- vited them to come together and discuss the matter. They bad a formal wmeeting at the reading-rooms in November at which twenty-four men were present, and organized a Workingmen’s Seif Culture Club. They adopted a constitution and elected an Executive Committee. The dues were fixed at 10 centa a month, a sum which, of course, will meet a very small portion of the expense, but nevertheless make it plain to them that it was their work and not tne work of charity. This method was adopted instead of selling tickets for the lecture courses. This club has taken full charge of the Friday evening en- tertainments and will probably be able later on to assume arge of the other departments. Aclub of this kind is something unique, and yet may promise more for the future than the great majority of social organizations with which the community abounds; for it means that the worlingmen, when they come to- gether socially also agree to come together for their mutual improvement, and for their per- sonal self culture. Thisclub of workingmen has also inaugurated a plan which promises to be fruitful of benefits to themselves and to their friends. They have undertaken to go in excursions to visit the art museum and other objects of interest in the city. Twice already the past fali they have gone to the Crow Musectm of Fine Arts. Prof. Halsey C. Ives bas met them tbere in a group and conducted a party of about forty or. fifty over the Museum, and given interesting and valuable expianations of the objects to be seen there. The men have come with their wives and families and expressed themselves delighted. Prof. Pritchet, who has the chair of astronomy atthe Washington University, has kindly consented to have them come in groups some evenings in the coming spring to observe the heaveus through a telescope at his observatory. Speaking for the Executive Committee, which consists of Messrs. James Taussig, J. A. St. Jonn, G. A. Gilbert, N. O. Nelson, W. L. Sheidon and Prof. J. K. Hosmer, a member of that committee said to-day: „We do not regard this work as a work of charity. It is not like giving food to the hun- gry and clothing to the naked. We recognize that as a duty. undertaking is something more; it is an act of human sympat has nothing to do with charity, but springs out of a common sense of human feeling and human fellowship. We wish to help our fel- low beings in lifting their tastes and ideas above the ordinary routine of daily work, so that they may each and all have another and a higher life. The committee therefore in re- questing a renewal of the subseription, and if ossible an increase over the sum subscribed ast year, uest the assistunce not for a work of charity, but for an educational insti- tution in the community. We desire that the work should continue and should crow.“ The lecturers their pleasure BE IS TOO YOUNG, A Young Murderer Whese Age May Save His Life.

MORENOUSE SELECTS OFFICERS FOR GOV. FRANCIS, eo He Fills a Number of Good Piaces With Which the New Governor Expected te Reward His Friends—The Outgoing Ex- ecutive Accused of Vindictiveness—The Twenty-Fourth Ward Election. O- DAT Gov.-elect Francis was very much put out. Private ad- vices from Jefferson City were to the effect that the Incumbent in the executive chair at the State Capital had determined to give the incoming Governor what is - popularly known as the ‘‘taz- le. Considerable hard feeling was cre- ated during the State campaign. Judicious politicians who calcu- lated that Francis would win in the guberna- torial race deserted the Morehouse standard for that of the almost unknown candidate from St. Louis. Combinations were subse- quently formed which did not improve the condition of things. Even appointees of Gov. Marmaduke who were retained in office by Gov. Morehouse deserted him. Now Governor-elect Francis’ friends are kicking because Governor-in-fact Morehouse betrays that common human desireto get even. Yes- terday Gov. Morehouse did considerable in the way of getting even by disposing ofa large slice of patronage which Governor- elect Francis thought would be at his disposi- tion with which to reward his friends. These nominations are now on the table of the Senate and the new Governor’s friends are hard at work planning to keep them there un- til after the inauguration, when these nominations will probably be rejected. The following are the nominations: Joseph K. Cole and Wm. M. Bunce for mem bers ofthe Board of Managers of the Nevada Lunatic Asylum for a term of two years. Henry C. Moore, Joseph F. Robins and D. O. Keunedy, to be members of the same board for a term of three years. Drs. Albert Merrill, Geo. Homan and J. D. Griffith te be members ofthe State Board of Health for a term expiring July 2, 1894. Mrs. L. N. De Bolt, a member of the Board of Control of the Industrial Home for Giris from date until Aprii 1, 1889, the unexpired term of Mrs. F. O. Vincent, resigned. Some weeks ago Gov. Morehouse surprised his elected successor and his Cooper County friends by naming the managers of the Boone- ville Reform School. It was confidently ex- pected that this would be left to the ney Gov- ernor, and it was also expected that h ould be guided by Col. Lon V. Stevens, whose faithfulness to the new Governor's cause led John O'Day, in a moment of bitterness, to call him Francis“ bell-boy.’’ The Rallroad Commissioners, following the example set by the Executive, appointed one of its retiring members clerk before the new Commissioner, Mr. T. J. Hennessy, assumed the duties of his office, or could have a voice in the bestowal of the one office at the disposi- tion of the new board. The retiring Governor bas, it is claimed, found within the line of his duty and the pub- lic necessity to recommend action adverse to some of his political enemies, as well as to re- ward his political friends, even in the face of cnarges of untrustiness. His message references to the Insurance Department are not complimentary. That portion of the Governor’s document concludes with the following pointed suggestion: This department has cost the people of the State nearly 40, 000 in the past two years. It may have been necessary to expend this amount of money in admuinistering the affairs of the office, but it should be done under the same restrictions as required of the other State offices. There is no good reason why this office should be kept in St. Louls, paging high rent for office room, when there is in the new Capitol building plenty of room for this office, and if located here the Attorney General could be the legal adviser of the commissioners.’’ Under tne present arrangement Mr. C. P Ellerbe is the legal adviser of the Insurance Commissioner. Mr. Ellerbe was an ardent friend of Mayor Francis. Insurance Commis- sioner Carr was also a supporter of the St. Louis candidate. Should the Governor’s rec- ommendatiun be followed it would deprive Mr. Ellerbe of bis position, even if Gov. Fran- cis should reappoint Insurance Commissioner Carr. Jt would also somewhat inconvenience that official if he were transferred from St. Louls to the State capital. —_, n THE TWENTY‘ FOURTH WARD ELECTION * An Office for Seventy-five Days Paying in an Aggregate $75. A spirited election is in progress to-day in the Twenty-fourth Ward, the citizens of whioh are engaged in the selection of one of their number to represent the ward in the House of Delegates, vice John H. Pohlmann, resigned to aceept the more profitable office of Sheriff. The names of three candidates are before the people, although but two were on the scene of action to-day. Louis O. Bene ine, who an- nounced himself as an independent candidate several weeks ago, fell down a flight of stairs last night at No. 2815 Cass avenue and to-day is confined to his room at the corner of Spring avenue and North Market street. The Republican candidate is John P. Hein- rich and the Democratic Thomas J. Ward. The Delegate elected to-day will hold his chair about seventy-five days and receive about $75 in salary. he expenses of the can- didates at the primaries when the nomination was made by the Democrats and the Republic- an mass- meeting footed up more than double the amount of the prospective salary. The ward has a Democratic majority, but owing to some hard feeling among the Democrats since the primary election the chances of the Re- publican candidate are counted good. REAL ESTATE. First Presbyterian Church Sold to 6. H. Leathe—Other Good Property Sales. It was learned this morning that the Presby- terian Church property at the northwest cor- ner of Lucas place and Fourteenth street had been sold for $40,000. The first report was that the property had been purchased by Edward Semple and the supposition of the report- er’s informant that Mr. Semple had — 4 — the property for his father-in-law, Oli- ver Hart. At least this was the opinion of sev- eral gentlemen who were discussing the sub- ject at a public dinner table yesterday. The property has been‘on the market for some time P under the management of W. O. Wilson & Co., and Charles H. Bailey. These persons were called upon for a verifica- tion of the report, but as Mr. George Wilson was the only member of the firm present and knew nothing of the sale having been made information was sought in other directions. It was thep learned that Mr. Semple had really offered ,000 for the property, but that he was not the purchaser, the real buyer being 5S. H. Leathe, or parties represen by him, who for several days past bas had a contract with the church congregation to purchase the property at $40,000 at any time up to the re- moval fromthe old church to the new one at the southwest corner of Washington avenue and Sarah street, an event which will take place about two months hence. It has not been stated Mr. Leathe what he intends doing with the old church site. In fact, it bas been said that he is averse to hav- ing anything said about the matter until after the papers have all been duly executed. The presumption, however, is that the site will be utilized for warehouse or — aa poses, as business of that character is being ae with a good deal of vigorous en- rise all through Lucas ° o old church property fronts 150 feet on Lucas place, 150 feet on St. Charlies and 155 feet on Fourteenth street.

FOUND BY THE “POST-DISPATCH.’’ The Queer Story of a Lost Boy and How He Was Recovered. Eddie Scooler, a boy of 12, was returned td his parents yesterday after having been lost to them for two years and a half, and was hought by them to have been drowned. The. story of the boy’s adventures reads more like romance than reality. In April, 1886, Eddie went down to the river with his young com- panions. When they returned home he was not with them, no clue to his whereabouts could be found. The Police Department was notified and every plan tried without finding even the slightest trace of the miss- He telis his story, now that to his parents, and he and the people that befriended him unite in saying that his return to his parents is due entirely to the Post-DISPATCH. it came about in a strange =. After having been taken down the river in a row-boat by a strange man, the boy was put to work in a brick 9 where he was subjected to many hardships and crueities. He ran away from there and worked around on farms in Illinois, between Grand Tower and Cairo, being well treated at some and abused at others, until finally he ob- tained work on the farm of Samuel Brush in the vicinity of Cairo. Mr. Brush and his wife took quite an interest in the boy who had grown manly and self-reliant during his year and a half of — * He was doing well on the farm, but could not tell where he came from or anything about himself save that his name was Eddle Scooler. One day during last month Mrs. Brushjhad occasion to o to Oairo to do some shopping, one of the undies was wrapped in a copy of the SUNDAY POS8T- DISPATC containing in the secret society column, an article on the Knights and Ladies of Honor, of which Mr. Scooler is a prominent member. Some space was devoted to a sketch of Mr. Scooler and his r was given. Mrs. Brush was attracted y the picture and the name and came to the conclusion that the Mr. Scooler whose name and picture appeared in the SunDayY Post D1s- PATCH must be some relution to the boy she had taken such aliking to. Letters were writ- ten to St. Leuis and a correspondence estab- lished. Mrs. Brush was right,and now the boy is again with bis parants, who had mourned him as dead, and he owes his restoration to the Post- DISPATCH. Charies sale of the d street, EASILY SETTLED. The Little Clash Between the Merehants’ Bridge People and the B. O. PF. I. An amicable settlement was mede this morn ing between the projectors of the Merchants’ Bridge and the Board of Public Improvements. The point at issue was the location of some of the bridge piers which interfered with the Ferry street sower. The plans and specifica tions of the works had not been submitted in full to the Board of Public Improvements until yesterday. On looking over the pians in detail Sewer Commissioner McMath found that if certain of the pliers were built according to the plans they would interfere 8 with the sewer arrangements of the West End, and also that the running of the Terminal Railway across the Water-works reseryation, as set down onthe plans would greatly interfere with the arrangements there. Accordingly yesterday afternoon a recommendation was drawn upto be acted upon by the board and submitted to the Municipal Assembly for adoption. In the original bill it was found that there was no clause or provision under which the Baard of Public Improvemenis could take a handin the direction of affairs or have anything to say about the plans. This morning Gov. Francis and ethers interested in the bridge and railway were present at the meeting of the board and submitted all the plans and specifications with detailed explana- tions on each point. After a N consulta tion the recommendation of the board was adopted and submuited to the railroad com- mittees of both branches of the Assembly this afternoon. The projectors of the bridge and terminal railway will urge the adoption of the recommendation and desire that it be passed us soon as possible, so that the work can be pushed ahead without delay.

The annual election for thirteen directors jof the Bremen Building & Loan Assaciation will be held to-morrow at the real estate office of C. C. Crone, No. 3612 North Broadway. Brotherhood of Carpenters, No. 4, will have a meeting on Thursday 5 at Lightstone’s Hall, Eleventh and Franklin avenue. This union is unalterably in favor of eight hours. The subject will be discussed to-night. To-night Unity Lodge, K. and L. of I., will lustall its new officers. This lodge is getting up something to bring more attractiveness to the lodge than the moss- back dog trot routine features, which are doing so much to kill off the attendance at all of the lodges. Peter Scully has entered suit against Martin V. Medart, the proprietorof a pawn shop on Franklin avenue, to recover a wolf-skin over- coat that was stolen from the residence of Mr. Scully’s son, on Papin streat. The case is in the hands of Justice Harmon, and is broughs as asuit by replevin. Israel Gronuluek has filed suit with Justice Manning against his brother Abraham Gronn- luek to replevin a feather bed, two brass candle-sticks and three religions books printed in the Hebrew language, valued in the aggregate at $33, Constable James Miles took possession of the goods and removed them to his office. The case will be tried on the 26th inst. : Tom Kavanaugh, about 71 years of age, was on trial in the Second District Police Court this morning on a charge of disturbing the peace by going bome drunk a few days ago and cailing his wife some foul names, after which he chased her off the premises. He was fined $25, but the fine was stayed ona promise of good behavior. His wite, who is about 35 years ot , saysthat Mr. Kavanaugh is a model husband except when drunk, and that he is not in the habit of drinking exces- sively. Paul Martin, a German, was fined $300 on charge of gross indecency. Will Form an Association. A movement to form a liquor dealers’ de- neydient protective association is on foot in this city. A number of dealers have signified their desire to joln such an organization. Mr. P. J. Carmody, who is one of the leaders in the movement to-day said: It is proposed to form an association to include within its mem- bership ouly men of ¢ character. The plan is this: »The benevoldnt feature to be an assessment ofastated amount in case of a member's death, regardless of his financial condition. The men engaged in the liquor business fre not only denied the privilege of entering any secret or benevolent organization, but have a hard time to get insurance on their lives, and it seems to me that benevolence among liquor men, where so many die without means, ought certainly to be attended to. A small essmpent in case of death to a member's family would do a great deal of good. Pro- tective interests concern every business man and why should it not concern us? Mutual conferences and expressions. of opinions would benefit us materially.’’ Gone With the Eggs. Joseph Marrer of Milistadt, Ill., reports that John Rehy, aneighbor of his, came to this‘city Friday last with a load of eggs and butter to sell and has not since been heard oforseen.

Mr. Nelson said he bad invited Mr. Fuss to bring a couple ot his lieutenants of the St. Vincent de Paul Society, and he had also requested Supt. Lack of the Provident Association to be present, so that these gentlemen might explain the practical workings of their respective charities and suggest the best means of reaching the most deserving children.

Auron THE APPLYCATION. : After Mr. Nelson had explained the resolu- tion, Mr. Fusz and Mr. Lack made statements concerning the methods used by their socie- ties in seeking out and aiding the needy. They said it made no difference, though, how the money was distributed so that deserving poor children receive the benefits. They suggested a printed form of application to be furnished to the St. Vincent de Paul, the Provident and the Hebrew Relief Associations, and it was finally agreed by the committee that every ap- licant who wished to be counted as deserv- eg should present this form with the blank spaces filled in with the necessary details and the whole signed by the President of the society through which the relief was asked, and the name of the member of the society who had visited the family and in- vestigated the case. It was also agreed that the articles given out should consist of shoes, stockings and flannels, and that the printed form should be headed: eeee et — eet ee 6 3 „„ „„ „„ „ss ate Fos r- DISPATCH CHILDREN’S FUND, For Children Under 14 Years 4 of Age Only. eeeceeeeee ee beeeeeeeeeeeee seceteeceeveeeeeee There willbe blank spaces for the child’s name, forthe names of the parents, for the residences, ete.

MOREHOUSE, in that part of his message relating to the liquor question, clearly states that the policy of the law- makers of Missouri, heretofore, has been largely to permit the people of each com- munity, in its municipal regulations, to control the sale of intoxicants. The Governor properly observes that this is in accordance with “the Democratic theory of self-government’ and suggests that little additional legislation on the subject is needed and that the present system is satisfactory to the people, as the official representatives of each community are best acquainted with the temper, de- sires and circumstances of its members. The point of the liquor controversy is found right here. While all may be willing toadmit the desirability of regulating the liquor traffic, yet there is an essential differ- ence of opinion as to the method of ao- complishing thisend. It isa principle of sound Democracy that the highest forms of government, such asthe State or na- tion, should assume only powers abso- lutely necessary and that all others, as far as possible, should remain with the people who constitute the source of power. Under the present laws the people of each county or city may fx the license tax as high as they please or may adopt prohibition if they choose to do 60. At the same time the State and county is assured of some revenue from whatever truffic in liquor that the communities may allow, This is pure Democracy, and all other The indications for twenty-four | theories and methods are opposed to it. They are attempts to force the people in matters of policy, and not of intrinsic morality, to do what they do not choose todo. They argue a fear of the people and a bigoted desire to reguiate personal conduct. E n i — By ave we death of Gen. a olemaq we claim. was assasyinated on the night o mober 2, This is aes a0.

Mr. Splan is now in the city and in a talk with the Herald reporter said: ‘The horse ie a sort of mutual friend, and the subject of horse iscommon ground upon which all men can west on the most affable and friendly terms.

It ie necessary for them to have seme one with them, some one to see and praise, to get their pleasure out of the horse. When a man can take an animal out and drive all alone, and really en- oy it, that is true love of the animal. Why. remember onee at a race in Cleveland I had just driven Nobby and a lady asked me whether there was more pleasure to me in driving in a race or merely driving on the road, and forthe life of me when I thought the matter over I could not ay there was a particie of difference, except, of course, the excitement, and that is all for the sake of winning, mean wy that, you know, to have your horse bent all the other horses.

If, when walking on the street, he should see ajhorse limpin Som an im perfect! set shoe, he would ta off his cout an remedy the evil then and there as quick as you would give au old pair of shoes to a man whom you migds see barefooted on a cold day.

The trlal ot the case of August Hacnchen against the Missouri Oar& Foundry Co. was begun in Judge Withrow’s room this morning. Haenchen was employed in the shops of the §Missouri Car & Foundry Co., and in his petition he states that the foreman who employed him gave him instructions to work under the orders of a mechanic, Andrew Smith; that Smith told him to clean a certain planing machine, which was at rest at the time; that he was cleaning the machine when Smith, without any warning to him, started the machine and the knives revolving, drew in the defendant’s right hand and cut off the four fingers of his hand. He asks for $10,000 damages. The defense of the company was that Haenchen received his injury tnrough his own negligence and folly; that. he put his hand in the machine while it was running. Tried by special Jury. _A special jury was called in Juege Klein’s room this afternoon to try the case of Thomas Rickby against the Shickie, Harrison & How- ard Iron Co. for damages received by the Ricuby while employed by the defendant. ickby claims that he was loading coke in obarreis on the ~piatfuorm of the cupola, and while so engaged a load of coke in an iron bueket was raised from the ground on a crane and lowered on the platiorm. Rlokby was stooping at the time and the iron bucket desernded upon him and injured him severely.

Some of the Laws Which Will Soon Be Sub- jects of Debate—A Repert Which May Seriously Affect the State University at Celumbia—The War en Peoel-Reoms to Be Vigeorously Pushed. Special Correspondence of the POsST-DISPATCH. JEFFERSON CITY, January 7.—Gov. More- house seems to have been very fortunate in the selection of his two legislative commit- tees appointed about a month before the ses- sion opened. Instead of making the stereo- typed reports whitewashing the manage- ment of State institutions and g0- ing through the form of Investi- gating the various State departments the committees will lay before the House and Senate facts of a more or less sensational char- acter, scoompanied by recommendat ions which will probably result in radieal changes in several departments of the State Govern- ment. As originally stated in the Post-DiIsraTou, the committee to settle with the Auditor and State Treasurer will report that the Insurance Department at 81. Louis has exceeded the appropriation for that office some , 800; that the office, as at present conducted, is far too expensive in proportion to the benefits de- rived from it and will recommend that it be established on a more economic basis and be moved to Jefferson City. The committee, it is expected, will also have something to say in the report about the advisability of permitting benevolent associations to insure their members. In addition to this they will touch on the different State departments and recommend a number of changes which will create something ofa stir in political circies. The other Committee on State Institutions has discovered that Dr. Laws of the State University is at variance with some of the faculty regarding the course of study in the school.

Irwin SPORTS IN CALIFORNIA. PLANS OF THE CALIFORNIA ATHLETIC CLUB FOR NEXT SUMMER. Boxing on the Pacific Slope—Growth of the Amateur Organizations—San Francisco Wrestlers—Kunning the Favorite Sport Reasons for Ita Popularity—Preparing for a Grand Campaign. F the California Ath- letic Club, although it has only recently sprung into national prominence,’’ said Charles 8. Bentinck of Oakland, a charter member of the club, who is stopping at the Southern, I may say that it has only re- ceived the recognition it has earned by seven years of hard, earnest work. Out off from the centers of athlet- ism by thousands of miles, and with a pop- ulation not equal to that of one of the New England States to draw from, the California Club has labored under disadvantages which noother has had to encounter, but at last it has triumphed over them all, and the present year will see a set of competitors enter the Eastern field from the Western coast which willmake even the New Yorkers open their eyes. : „Boxing ie the. favorite amusement of the California Club, and in this we believe we ex- cel all others. Iwas not fortunate enough to see the fight in Which the Australian negro proved victor, but saw him in training, and athletes, and have neither introduced nor ro- vived any branch of athietics.

In indoor athletics, such as boxing, this makes no difference, but in any- thing bat requires a man to train out of doors it is , advantage I only dy who have enjoyed it. We would not fear to compete with the world in oarsmanship were it not for the fact that we have no accessible sheet of water upon which to practice. But in running the case is different. Every runner knows that he can extend himself better, and make faster time, when warm weather limbers and re than in cold weather. Mechanics’ Exchange Officers.
