LONDON, January 28.—Mr. Edward Stanhope, Secretary of State for War, addressed a meet- ing of his constituents in the Horncastle Di- vision of Lincolnshire last evening. In the course of his remarks Mr. Stanhope said a thunder cloud was hanging over Europe and that sooner or later. probably sooner, it would burst, bringing the Sercest and most horrible war ever known. It was impossible, he declared, to view the preparations for war now being made throughout Europe, without seeing that a war was approaching. He hoped, however, that the wisdom of En- giand’s statesmen would prevent that nation trom becoming involved. MR. STANHOPE DENOUNCED. The Pall Mall Gazetie, commenting upon the speech, denounces the folly of such utter- ances as those of Mr. Stanhope and says they are calculated to do much mischief. It says that Mr. Stanhope’s heedless rhetoric is quite unjustified and expresses the hope that Lord Salisbury will take prompt measures to cor- rect the damage done by the Minister of War. MR.

Earl Grey's Manifesto—Demolishing New- gate Prison—Copyright Decision. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Lonpon, January 2).—The venerable Earl Grey, who still lives in seclusion on his mag- nificent estate in Northumberland, issues a long manifesto on the British policy in South Africa. He severely criticizes the Govern- ment, declares that little has been done towards performing the duty that Goschen says rests on England tor the welfare of the uncivilized races, or the extension of British influence over them which Salisbury considers so important, with a view to the extension of British commerce. He considers it desirable that immediate measures be taken to establish British authority in South Africa, and is con- vinced this might be accomplished without imposing any burdens On the British treasury, Earl Grey fairly sums up the views of a small but active band of politicians, among whom must now be reckoned Chamberlain, whoisa shareholder in the new British chartered East African Co. NEWGATE PRISON. The work of demolishing Newgate prison will soon begin. To-day thirty members of ‘he Society of Architects visited the place to make an examination of this historic struc- ture ore its final disappearance, IMPORTANT COPYRIGHT DECISION. Justice North delivered an important copy- right decision yesterday, effectually disposing of the common notion that what oppears in a newspaper is not subject to copyright. At present the papers here nearly all copy from each other. Justice North decided that any article, even a compilation which a newspaper has taken the trouble to prepare, may be protected. The proprietor of a commercial paper copied from another the names of persons having made ae deed arrangement with their creditors. The theft bogus names which reappeared in the copy. It is thought this decision will give a ‘great impetus to news collectors. Only yesterday, at a meeting of the newspaper proprietors of London, Mr. Lawson, editor ot the Telegraph, complained that on two occasions he had paid £900 for atelegram which was reproduced word for word by other papers, two hours aft - erwards. : — — BOULANGER’S viIicroRkT. The Government’s Plans—A Passive Policy— Comments of the European Press. Paris, January 29.—It is siated that M. Flo- quet, the Prime Minister, does not intend to introduce in the Chamber of Deputies an anti- Boulangist bill, nor does he intend to propose a dissolution of the Chamber. He will intro- duce to-day a billto re-establish the Scrutin d’ Arrondissement system of voting. THE BOULANGISTS’ POLICY. The Boulangist coalition has decided to re- main passive and to profit by any mistakes that may be made by the Government. The aownfall of the Floquet Government is ex- pected when it demands urgency for the Scrutin d' Arrondissement bill, as the Boulang- ists and probably many Opportunists and Radicals will refuse to agree to it. 3 AN IMPORTANT OFFICIAL. It is stated that M. Goblet and M. De Frey- cinet both desire the position of Prime Minis- ter. The most important, post in the new Cabinet will be that of Minister of the Interior, as that official will have the supervision of the general elections, which, it is expected, will take place in March. » | | &BOULANGIST PREDICTION. _ The Boulangists declare that should the Goverment blunder, Gen.

Otherwise, 18 says, Boulangiém will swallow France within a year. WHAT CARNOT SHOULD DO. The New Free Press, referring to the election | of Gen. Boulanger, says: I President Car, not earnestly summons the whole of France tq decide the question of Government, the coun- try will perbaps recoil from the disgrace of falling into the bands of a political advent- urer. Paris, by the election of Gen. Boulan- . ger, has signified its approval of the Revanche idea. The execrations of all people will be heaped on the heads of the nation respons!bie¢ tor the next war in Europe. a THE RUSSIAN PRESS. , Sr. PETERSBURG, January 29.—The Grash- danin says that Gen. Boulanger’s aims are more enigmatical than ever, and that be should make a frank declaration of his pur ; poses. The Journal de St. Petersburg and thé Navosté look upon the election of Gen. Boulanger as a summons to the Bepubllo to take action for i preservation. THE CABINET’S POLICY. When M.

This course was decided upon at @ meeting of the Cabinet to-day. FOOLISH IDA WILCOX. A Pretty American Girl Elopes With’a Mar- ried English Doctor. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Nice, January 29.—A great sensation has been caused here by the arrest at Paris of an American girl with an English doctor. The young lady’s name is Ida Wilcox, and she is a. daughter of Mrs. Caspar Wilcox of Rain- bridge, N. Y. She is 17 years old, is pretty and has been much admired since her arrival here with her mother a month ago. They were staying at the Pension Anglaise. Two weeks ago «a Dr. Sellon arrived from England with his son, a boy 8 years old, and stopped at the same house. The dootor affected to be an invalid and claimed that he came south to recover from an injury due to a fall from his horse. He was a handsome fellow of good address, with plenty of money and from the outset paid a good deal of attention to Ida. A week ago a lady at tile Pension Anglaise told Mrs. Wilcox that the doctor was flirting too much with Ida and advised her to put a stop to it as the doc- tor had a wife in England, Mrs. Wilcox chided Ida on the subject, but as the girljwas not in- clined to discontinue the intimacy, the mother left Nice with ber daughter and moved to 8 hotel at Mentone. THE ELOPEMENT. The girl left a note for the doctor telling him where she was going. He followed the day afterwards and put up at the same hotel. The mother met him inthe hal! and a great row ensued, the result of which was that the girl promised to give him up. Last Thursday the doctor tried to get somebody to take his boy to London in order to put him in charge of a relative there, but failed -in his endeavors. On Friday he 1 at the railway station at Mentone with the boy and Ida,who he passed off as the boy’s governess. Ida seemed much excited. he station agent sold them tickets to Ventimiglia, on the Italian frontier, where Ida cashed a check payable to eithcr herself or her mother, for The state- ment that the girl had stolen, the monev was wrong, as thecheck had been given to her by her mother to cash. With funds thus ob- tained the eloping party traveled via Genoa, Turin and Dijon to Paris, where — 3 were arrested. The mother waited all day for Ida. to come back with the money, but instead a messenger delivered a note from the girl, saying that she had run away and asking to be forgotten, as she had determined never to return. The mother at once went to the American Consul here, Heathaway, who saw the public Prosecutor on the subject, in con- sequence of which the police at Paris were in- structed by him to arrest the couple imme- diately on their arrival. THE ELOPERS CAUGHT. When the train arrived at the Paris termi- nus Dr. Sellon called a cab and told the driver to gotothe Grande Hotel. Before he could start the police arrested him. He protested that the girl was of age and that she had come with bim of her own accord. The whole party were started back by the first train for Men- tone, where the mother awaits them. The incident has created a great scandal amon the Americans here. The laws dealing wit abduction are very severe in France, and the frienas of the girl’s mother propose to make it warm for the doctor. Austro-Hungary. THE AMERICAN CONSUL RECALLED. Prstu, January 29.—Mr. Joseph Black, the United States Consul here, has been recalled, | He will be succeeded by Mr. Louis Gerster, the present Vice Consul. Tur MILITARY BILL PASSED.

8 | Friends—Tracks Blockaded With Trucks _. 4 Transfer House Set on Fire by the cCerova-A Seb“ Murderdusly Assaulted H Way to Work—a Number of Riots 2 @t Various Points—The Militia Ready in New om, January 29.—The long-threatened murtace road strike was inaugurated here this morning. The only cars running to-day are those of the Third avenue and Bleecker street rouds. It is now three years since the last tie- es up was experienced in this city. The men have been preparing for this struggle for some ‘Sime past and the order to drop the lines was promuigated at the meeting of the street-car men last evening. Messengers were dispatched to the Cifferent stables to notify the men at work to quit at 4 a. m. or with the first trip of the morning. The night cars, as fast as they ar- rived at the stables were run in, the horses stabied and fed and left to enjoy the unusual rest. The men went quietly home. President Curtis of the Sixth Avenue road said he would run acar this morning over the lines of his route, even if all the strikers combined to stop it. The strikers are preparing to do this and they predict that the car will not run below Eighth street. The police re- 1 the sta- tion houses in anticipation of, trouble. The patrol wagons are in readin made from the up-town men to guard the stables on the West Side near Fifth street. Fifty-nine were ordered to guard the Sixth avenue stables, where the most trouble is feared. Many of the men on this road are the ex-strikers of the Third ave- nue road, fand do not care for a repetition of their lock-out, but they will be closely watched by their brother workmen.

IN BROOKLYN. In Brooklyn the situation is reversed. The police of that city offer no protection to the companies or their present employes. Their sympathy is entirely with the strikers, and but littie effort appears to be made to enforce thelaw. In consequence of this the street railroad companies of that city bave not made any effort to run cars to-day. THE MILITIA BREADY. 8 bat been made in Brooklyn to call out the Thirteenth, Nineteenth and Twenty-third Regiments in case of a riot arising out of the Atlantic Horse-car tie-up. The company has decided not to run any cars at present and so long as no attempt is made to run cara it is thought that there will be no serious trouble. It is said that Presi- dent Richardson has held no further confer- ences with the men to-day and that he does notevince any disposition to do 80. The strikers say that the company is well abie finangially to pay their men $2 a day. TEARING UP A TRACK, The track at the crossing of the Brighton Beach Rallroad at Manhattan avenue was torn -day.

About 3 o’clock 100 policemen were dis- patched from police headquarters to Thirty- third street and Third avenue, where a riot was reported to be in progress. EAST Sr. LOUIS AND BELLEVILLE, Items of Interest at the Other End of the Big Bridge. The City Court of East St. Louis was in ses- sion but a shorttime this morning and the following cases were disposed ot: George Gee of this city wi granted a divorce from his wife, Aman4s Gee. He stated in his petition that they “ere mar- ried in East St. Louis in September, 1886, an d lived together about tie months, when his wife deserted hi and refused to live with him since, Fancis Gunnings brought suit against te St. Louis Bridge & Tunnel Co. for damages amounting to $5,000. He states in his son that he had been an employe of the pompan and received severe bodily injuries at their bands. A judgment of in favor of plaintiff was rendered. The case of Mrs. Sanders, a colored woman, against the estate of the late Thomas Win stanly, which was on trial yesterday after- noon, has deen laid over until the middle of February. Chief of Police Walsh received a letter last evening from a party residing in New York City stating that a man of the name of Stewart Ricks had been captured, who, it is for falsely rep- an agent company, way having de- frauded many people.

A Special Messenger te Be Sent After Fiori. da’s Electoral Vote—Appropriation for a Statue of Gen. Sheridan—Gen. A. J. Smith Placed on the Retired List—Con- gress— Washington News. WASHINGTON, D. C., January 29.—The Som mittee on Ways and Means this morning held its first meeting for several months for the consideration of the Senate amendments to the tariff bill. Apeeseene to 8 after very little discussion, the l and amend ments were referred to the Treasury Depart- ment in order to secure computations as to the effect on the revenue of the proposed — in the law. Inasmuch as a calendar year has e since the bill was repo to the Senate, it is possible that the former caicula- tions, which were based on the imports of the 28 year, may be found inapplicable at his time. There appears to be a wide dif- ference of opinion between the Senate Finance Committee and the Ways and Means Com- mittee in regard to the effect of the Senate amendments. Mr. McMillan, a member of the last named committee, estimated that the Dill, as re- ported to the Senate, would in its tariff sections increase the revenue $13,000,000. Since that calculation was made a sugar bounty has been provided for and the tariff raised on tin, woolens, etc., so that in Mr. McMillan’s judgment there is fair reason to doubt whether che bill would result in any re- duction of income. Charged Discrimination. WASHINGTON, D. C., January 29.—The Inter- state Commerce Commission to-day beard the ease of Stone & Carter against the Detroit, Grand Haven & Milwaukee Railway Company. No evidence was presented, the facts being agreed upon. e complaint charges discrimination against Ionia, Mich. ,by delivering freight free to consignee’s doors at Grand Rapids, while to tonia the carrier charges the same rates as it does to Grand Rapids and only delivers freiahts to con- signees at its warehouse. Arguments were made by Messers. Thomas F. McGary and Ash- ley Pond for complainants; E. W. Meddaugh for defendant, and Otto Kirchner for car- tage com panies. The Ohio Bridge. Wasninetror, D. C., January 2.—The Committee on the Judiciafy heard arguments to-day on the bill providing for the construction of a bridge across the Ohio River, detween Louisville, Ky., aud Jeffersonville, Ind. A delegation headed by Congressman Caruth of Konsucky, n - and ex-Congressman Thompson, Argued support of the bill, and ex-Congressman Willis opposed the measure. holding that the construction of the proposed bridge would — with the navigation of the Ohio iver. , “Sealing Station at Pago- Pago. WASHINGTON, D.

Mr. Herbert has not been able toconfer with ail the members of the committee, but such as have been spoken to are in favor of the amendment. Florida’s Electoral vote. WASHINGTON, D. C., January 29.—The See- retary of State has been informed by ex Senator Ingalls that the election certificate of the State of Fiorida is missing, and that consequently it will be necessary to securea copy deposited in the District Court at Taila- hassee. After conference with Senator Pasco it was decided to send a message to Florida immediately to secure that document. The Sheridan Statue. WasHincTosn, D.

From the London Telegraph. Undeniadly one of the most popular sove- reigns who ever athrone is the Em- peror Franz-Josef. Throughout Austria-Hun- gary he is admired and beloved. The pro- found attachment.evinced towards him by his people during a reign of forty years is due to his personal merits, not to the sometimes potent force of traditional associations.

The bation was told, and readily believed, that ite future would be secured by this youthful Prince, so full of promise and so remarkably endowed. Franz-Josef bad been brought up in the nig of theage, in the dawn of a new civilization. Although only 18 years of age, he showed himself at once to be gifted with extraordinary ability, in character rather confiding than reticent, fearless, and of steadfast purpose, bis martial deportment, graceful Spare and pleasant address soon won for him the sympathy of the very men who had attempted to overthrow the dynasty. Nor were they by any means indifferent to the fact that he could s to his subjects in seven of the fourteen languages and dialects used in the country. A year before his ac- cession to the throne be went to Pesth to represent the Emperor at the ceremony con- nected with the assumption of office of the Palatine of Hungary. To the amazement, of the magnates sasembied in the local Reichs. rath the youthfal Ha urg, instead of ad- dreasing them in Latin, as was customary, spoke with perfect fluency in Hungarian. At the very opening words of his address, delivered in a language which the Hapsburgs had hith- erte ignored, and whieh since the reign of Mathias Corvinus had gunk to the ignominious level of an unlettered 5 u, the assembly broke out into enthusiastic applause. The magnates had heard muen of the linguistic ac- quirements of the heir-presumptive,but his baranguing them in the very language which his illustrious ancestress, Maria Theresa, in her one-sided policy, bad looked upon with dis- favor, at once kindled within them hope and confidence, which the future was fully to jna. tify. The Emperor’s knowledge of Bohefuian and the Sclavonic dialects spoken in the Em- pire is extensive and, sithough his Majesty does not „ Engthish in talking with En- Kliehmen or Americans, he is conversant with the English language and literature. HIS SOLDIERLY QUALITIES. The Emperor, besides being familiar with the legislative and constitutional laws, knows so to say, by heart the special statutes of the different provinces. He has shown him- self to be a brave and resolute soldier. In 1848, before his n to the throne, he took an active part, under Gen. Radetzky, in the battle of Santa Lucia. Atthe outbreak of the Italian war, by his own request, in- stead of taking possession of the governor- ship of Bohemia, he was sent to share the tortunes of the army. Radetzky, dreading the +g oot | of having the young Prince with him, begxed of him to leave the seat of war. But he refused, announcing bis deter- mination to be present during the fighting. The Emperor isa Splendid borseman. His slender and graceful re is well adapted to the saddie. When riding with his staff he can be recognized at a distance, being quite a conspicuous figure in the cavaicade. Cu- riously enough, when a boy, he was afraid of borses, and it required eonsieerable persua- sion to induce himto mount the quietest of ponies. No sooner had he, at the age of 15, commenced his military studies than he over- caine his timidity, and soon was abie to per- form expert feats of horsemanship. HIS DAILY Lin. There is a certain window in the Palace of the Hofburg from which a flood of light streams forth long before daybreak whea- ever the Emperor is in Wein. His Majesty, who ocoupies the room within, is absorbed in the business of State, while the population is stiil plunged in sleep. The Emperor is an indefatigabie worker He enjoys excellent health, and nothing seems to fatigue him. After a heavy night's work he will lie down on a sofa and sleep for s couple of hours, rising as refresited physically and inteliect- 8 si 22 — — — THE LATEST GOSSIP FROM THE FRENCH DRESSMAKERS, Some Striking Tollettes—A Unique Twelfth Night Ball—A Wedding and a Trousseau —The Eccentricities of Boyal Appetites How Kings and Queens Eat—George ; Sand’s Strange Babits—Mme. Recamier, Special Correspondence of SUNDAY Post-DISPATCH: ARIS, January .- What a eon; trast the fash. | ons of to-day present with those of last. year! It has not been a season of changes and mod ifications, but of thorough and complete transforma- tions. Last winter the fem- inine division ot the worid of fashion wore large bustles and looped skirt draper- ies and ball corsages with very long points. Now skirts are made as flat and clinging as possible. The corsages may still be cut in long points, but their lower edge is hidden under wide sashes or girdles. Sleeves are often made 80 tight from elbow to wrist that they are frequently closed at the band with four buttons, not being wide enough to draw over the hand as heretofore. If two materials enter into the compositian ofa dress, such as faille and sicilienne, or brocade and crepe de chine, the top of the sleeve, that is to say from shoulder to elbow, is tne full balloon or melon shape in the soft material, the lower part being tight fitting to the arm and com- posed of the silk. This sleeve is in reality a revival of the old leg-of- mutton sleeve in vogue under the restoration, only itis graceful and picturesque instead of being clumsy and hideous as was its predecessor. The Princesse cut, namely the corsage and skirt made in one after the polonaise fashion, is largely adopted for evening dress. A very elegant evening tollette recently worn ata large ball had the corsage and train in black satin, cutali in one, the latter being lined with scarlet satin. The underskirt was also in black satin, covered with flouncesof black lace, with the design outlined in fine gold thread. A very narrow gold braid formed crescents around the edge of the skirt and the top of the low-necked corsage, which had full elbow-sleeves of black gauze. This toilette had a touch of eccentricity about it which rendered it alto- gether remarkable. A VERY STRIKING WALKING DRESS has just been completed for one of the leaders of fashion in the American colony of Paris. It consists of a long redingote, covering the skirt completely, in light brown corded silk, striped with seal brown velvet in groups of wide and narrow stripes at regular intervals. The cuffs, collar and border of this redingote are in Russian sable. The skirt worn with this wrap ig in beige brown cloth, bordered witb a wide band of fur. Furs of all kinds in fact have been universally popluar this winter, owing to the unusual degree of cold we are exper!i- 2 in Faris. Flowers have become the rage for trimming Dull-dresses. The large varieties, such as very large roses and pop- ies and chrysanthemums, put on in long —. ands, are the most fashionable. m ä N 5 * 3 eae. — Reh r 7 3 — * — eens 3 3 * * “ * , g 1 wa _ LEA EAS ER be A - n 4 K — - * ‘ * WW 12 12 * 8 iy Tee J 1 oe ee am 5 4, : 4 gr 1 — 0 * ae 4 8 i 4 8 ved $ e : . 533 * . ee / . ae N 2 My 4 * * ow", 9 ; a 1 2 1 eS * * + * 1 3 5 a operation.

Louis . Knackstedt, who had for two years filled the position, has sev- ered his connection with the bank. For twodays the officers have been investigat- ing the affairs of the er, and have just reimbursed the bank the ample security given by the teller for a shortage Which it Is reported amounted to $7,500. AS the bank is in no wise loser the business has been completely cleared up and the dally routine been resumed. The offi- cers are not inclined to discuss the matter principally out of regard for the relatives of ; oung man. 2 — was Occasioned last night gn German ananclal circles of North 8t. Louis by the report tuat a defaleation had occurred in the Mullanphy Savings Bank. At first these rumors affected another employe. Inquiries were made by several parties. It was learned that one of the bank employes had been found short in his accounts, but that the mat- ter had been settled, the amount due to the dank paid over, the employe dismissed and affairs had resumed their usual course. A call was made at the bank this morning te investivate the matter. Mr. J. H. Rottman the President, was found and asked: “What is the trouble at the bank, Mr. Rott- ex-tel! out of n? 1 The troũdble is now over and was just this: For the past three years Louis A. Knackstedt bes occupied the position of teller. He acted both as paying aud receiving teller, as we gever needed more than one man to fill both positions. Early last week the cashier no- tied several Slight irregularities in the ex- change account. Small sums, such as $1.50, Lor S, seldom more than the latter sum, would appear on the books and not en the casbier’s account. We gquiet- ly proceeded to investigate matters and discovered that Knackstedt was short in his cash, as well as in his exchange account. At we close of banking hours we called him into tde directors“ room, and asked him how his gcounte stood. He at once broke down, gd acknowledged that he was short. In ex- planation he said that he had repeatedly paid at more money oa checks than they called“ tr; that he had been afraid to acknowledge tis, and had falsified his accounts to cover be deficiency, intending to save enough noney to replace what be had carelessly and badvertantly paid out. That there was me truth in this statement I know, as on tro occasions Mr. Vornbrock, one of our cus- mers, had returned us money, in one in- farce $15 and in another, I believe, $25, reich seems had been paid him ia excess of hat he was entitled to. But on looking at de exchange account it was found that inackstedt had for several months been tak- g small sums from it, and his defalcation ws proved beyond a doubt. ‘His father, Louis Knackstedt, a member @ the firm of Lanmann & Knackstedt, as son’s sole bondsman, was at once it tor, while the teller was detained in the mak.

After a good deal of persuasion old Mr. Knackstedt agreed to what ‘i proposed, which was thut settle the umount of his son’s sWortage and let him leave | the city to begin a new lifeelsewhere. The first | installmontofthe money was paid on Friday last, aud this morning Mr. Knackstedt came in and settled the balance, so that the bank is in as good a condition as ft ever was. “What is the amount of the defalcation?’’ a is trifling. I have not the exact figures th me, but it was considerably less than $, - 0, not half the amount of Kn tedt’s bond. His father is worth over $75,000, and we never — in the smallest danger of losing the oney.’’ “How long has the defaulting teller been in the employ of the bank? “Altogether about eight years. He com- menced as messenger, and steadily rose, hav- ing been appoin teller about three years so. He is about 28 or 80 years of age, and lives at 2008 Angelrodt street. I don’t know how he spent the money he took; he probably lost the most of it in speculation. We Were all very sorry for him, as he appeared to ‘4 very good young man. „Has there been a run on the bank?“ : Not at all.

The suit was then brought. Judge Dillon said that if it had been shown that the plaintiff had laced the acoumulators in an improper i- n it would have to bear the expense of the t had not n shown place for the saccu- mulators was under the seat; on the contrary it appeared from the evidence that the eg place was under the car. Moreover, he agreement between the twaparties as to the experiment had been reached by corre- spondence, and in one of the letters written by the Accumulator Co. it was clear] stated that the accumulators would be placed under the cars and if the defendant had failed to notice that ft was an ov ht on the part of the defendant and forthe oversight it would have to stand the consequences. The judgment was, therefore, for the Accumgiator Co., and the amount awarded was . 29. Judge Dillon this morning granted Mrs. Annie ©. Day, nee Cooney, a divorce from John W. Day. The petition of the plaintiff states that they were married September 19, 1887 and the day after their marr fendant got ‘‘brutally drunk’’ mained so until October 5, 1887. She says that Day took her to his mother’s ho . and he never paid any board tor ber. Her life has been miserable because her mother-in-law has upbraided her tor marrying Day and going to his house to live. She further says tha since thelr marriage Day has been almost oon - stantly confined to the ashi n Inebriate Asylum of Chicago. Fora f er cause she stated that he haa never contributed anything towards her support except 60 cents which be once gave her. Judge Dillon granted the di- vorce. Judge Valliant rendered an opinion this morning in the case of Cole against Skrainka The suit was on a contract to furnish granite blocks to pave Market street near Fifteenth. The blocks were between seven and eight inches deep, while the contract calied for blocks eight inches deep. In his opinion Judge Valliant said it appeared from the evidence thatit was impossible to hew out granite blocks of the exact depth of eight inches; that experience had shown that blocks seven or eight inches in depth were as good for all practical pu s as blocks 8 inches in depth and that 7 to 8 inch blocks had come to be known in the market as 6 inch bloens. The judgment was therefore for the defendant. Judge Withrow was engaged this — 2 hearing the case of the Dehner-Wuerpal Mil Building Co. against William O'Keefe, a suit on two accounts, one for $346.30 and the other for $1,160.31. The plaintiff put in two elevators for the defendant and the dispute arose over — prices of material furnished and work one. Anton Lutz filed suit this morning against the St. Louis Wrecking Co. Lutz is the owner of the horses whose legs were broken when the embankment in tne foundations of the Houser building, on Fifth andPhestnut streets, gave way.

Over Seventeen Dollars to Help the Women Who Slept Out on the Street. The sum of $17.9 was received at the Poser DISPATCH office this morning for the benefit of the two women, Mrs. Anna Roos and Mrs. Black, who were turned out into the street last week because they could not pay the rent demanded of them. On account of their hardships and harsh treatment was published in full in the Posr- DISPATCH yesterday afternoon and had the effect of bringing forth a number of voluntary contributions, the sum total of which amounts up to date to $17.95. This money will be turned over to the wo- men it is intended for to-day, so that they will be able to find a permanent place of residence while seeking work. hey both very anxious to find steady occupation and failing in that would be very giad to take advantage of any honest means which would enable them to keep their children fed and clothed. They both have rooms now which have been rented to them and a partial payment of the sum asked so that their condition has been much improved since Sunday.

New YorRK, January 29.—Julius Dexter, President of the Cincinnati, Dayton & Hamil- ton Rallroad, is at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. He said last evening to areporter: ‘‘We cer- tainly intend to prosecute the case against Ives and Stayner. Wethink we have ample evidence.

MR. BLAIR TO GO BEFORE THE EXPIRATION OF HIS TERM. Probable Appointment of New Commissien- drs at an Early Date—The Deeriug Dram- shop Bill—Regents of tlie Kirksville State Normal Schodl Appointed—Proceedings of the Missouri Legislature. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPaTcH. JEFFERSON City, Mo., January 29.—It seems to be generally understood among the friends and supporters of Gov. Francis that James L. Blair, Vice-President of the St. Louis Police Board, will not be continued in office for the remaining two years of his term. Commis- sioner Wilkerson, whose term expires with that of Mr. Blair, is believed to be favorable to the Governor and may ‘not be disturbed. The substance of these reports was publisbed in the Post-DISPATOH more than a week ago, when there was a great deal of talk on the subject. The question of Blair's ro- moval is again prominent because of the belief that the Governor will make the appointments of Police Commissioners at an early date. The appointment of a State In- surance Commissioner would have been sent to the Senate to-day but for the adoption of a resolution by the Senate yesterday afternoon to investigate the management of the insurance department. In view of the intention of the vernor to give the place to Chris P. Elierbe of St. Louis, it was doubt- less thought best to await the result of the inquiry before making the appointment. THE DEERING DRAMSHOP BILL. The Deering dramshop bill, fixing saloon licenses for St. Louis at $3000, has been printed and was laid on the desks of the members this morning. Mr. Moore of Laciede Oounty, the leader of the Republican side in the House, informs the Post-DISPATCH correspondent that it is his opinion thatthe bill will be re- ported usfavorably by the House Committee on Criminal Jurisprudence. It is probable, however, that before it is so repor a num- ber of important changes will be made in it. APPOINTMENTS BY THE GOVERNOR, Gov. Francis sent tothe Senate this morn- ing the SS of W. B. Hayes of Schuy- ler and O. E. Hanna of Randolph County, to be Regents of the Kirksville State Normal School. THE HOUSE PROCEEDINGS. After the morning hour had d¢xpired Mr. Silver of Cole County, Chairman of the House Committee on Revision, called up the report of his committee and in a forcible speech went over the entire ground of revision. He made a strong plea for the consideration of all bills and ofthe statutes to be revised at the same time. In this way the House will have the entire subject matter before it and can act intelligently upon it and upon all bilis re- lating to it, whether the committee report be favorabie or unfavorabie. O'Day of Greene County referred to the report of Mr. Silver’s committee as not only extraordinary but — gy revolutionary. He held that every member had a right toa fall discusion and debate on his bill and to seprate consideration by the House. hompson of Macon County took the ground that the report of the Revision Com- mittee delegated to the Revision Committee very nearly if not allofthe powers of the House. The futher consideration of the report was laid over until to-morrow. A resolution was adopted requiring [the Chaplain öt the House — — in the hall of the House of Represe tat lves every Sun- day morning. Bills were introduced as follows: By Mr. Coghian: An act providing a penal- ty for the a@iliing of liquor on Sunday when the seller 1s nota licensed dramsbop- keeper. By Mr. Cole: Anact to authorize married women to sue and to be sued without joining their husbands as a party. By Mr. Tuttie: An act providing for the es- tablishment of a State signal service and ap- propriating money therefor. By Mr. Nolan: A bill to prohibit mining corporations from engaying in the mercantile business for the purpose of supplying em- ployes. The House adjourned until 10 0’clock. to- morrow morning. THE SENATE PROCEEDINGS. In the Senate this morning Senator Thur- man submitted a petition from the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, asking that no steps be taken by the Legisiature to repeal the law estabiish- ing the resent system of official court sten phers. A bill was introduced by Senator Thurman providing that mortgages be foreclosed in open court. Senator McGinniss introduced a bill to regu- late the sales of real eastate under order of court in all cities of over 350,000 inhabitants. A number of revision bills were introduced and the Senate went into executive session to consider appointments made by the Governor. On arising from executive session the Senate adjourned until to-morrow morning. ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE. Pinkerten’s Sweat Box to Be Investigated— Senator Cullom’s Speech. By Telegraph to the Post-Disrarcnu. SPRINGFIELD, III., January 29.—At 1l o' clock to-day the House of Representatives took a recess of thirty minutes to receive Senator Ouliom. The Senate bad adjourned some minutes before and the Senators came into the House. Senator Cullom was and spoke about half an hour, but he carefully avoided political questions. In the course of his remarks he strongly favored such a policy as would finally result in the peaceful annexation of Canada to the United States. The House accomplished very little business. A resolution was adopted in- structing the Committee on unicipal Corporations to investigate the practice of immuring citizens in the Pinkerton sweat- box for the purpose of extorting testimon from them. The committee is to report by bil or otherwise. Another bill was introduced to repeal the medical practice act,and another by Mr. Smiley to prevent the issue and use ot raliroad passes, attaching severe pen- alties both to the issuers and users. The Senate passed the bill appropriating $65,000 for the payment of the employes of the present assembly. The report of the Com- mittee on Rules was adopted. Among the bills introduced are the following: By Mr. Thomas: Regulating the practice of denistry. By Mr. Seiter: For better compensation for miners. By Mr. Fuller: For the organization and regulation of savings banks. The resolution to make Charles Nelson, a colored Democrat, janitor of the Democratic cloak-room, was laid on the table, and then the Senate adjourned. The committees get regularly down to business this afternoon for the first time. Under a Falling Wall. MIWNEAPOLIS; Minn., January 29.—The Journal’s Duluth special says: The high brick wall of the opera-house, which was burned Monday morning, fell at 11:30 a. m. to-day upon a frame building standing in the next lot and occupied by Chamberlain & Co. as a book store. Mr. Chamberlain, the proprietor, was buried in the ruins, which caught ure. No hope is held of rescuing Chamberlain alive. ne other man is report- ed to be in the ruins, but nothing definite is known in regard to this. The fire at 12:30 p. m. is still raging, and a whole block of frame buildings is threatened. The loss, up to this time, is $25,000. The Journal’s specia} from Duluth says: The body of Elmer E.

For some time past it has been known that the Goulds—Jay and his son George-—Wwere the. holders of a large block of Richmond Terminal stock, gen- erally believed to de about 30,000 shares, and when the Terminal company, at its annual meeting, increased the number of directors by two or more persons, it was thought thatone at least of the vacancies would be filled by some one representing the Goulds, and they were right, forjnow George Gould has been elected a director in this com- any and will henceforth sit ip its councils.

Buried Under a Falling Wall—-Two Swedes Drowned—Casualties. ABERDEEN, Dak., January 7.—News has reached bere that two school children per- ished in the storm Friday night and that a third is not expected to survive the exposure. Their names were French and the con- sisted of two little boys and an older sister, aged 18. The French family lives about twelve miles east of Hitchcock. When taken to school by an older brother in the morning the children promised to wait until he came for them at night. Children belonging to other families were taken home, but these refused roffered assistance, saying they would stay nthe school-house all night if their brother did not come. It appears he did start, but could not make bis team face the storm and gave it up. After waiting until dusk they started home, but lost the road and wondered in the deep snow until exhausted. When found in the morning the two little boys were dead. The girl was severely frozen and unconscious. If she survives she will lose the lower portion of her limbs and possibly one or both arms.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND TO SEND A COMMU- NICATION TO CONGRESS ON THE SUBJECT A Suggestion for the Exercise of Wider Descretion—Probable Course of Ger- many— The Recent Conflict in Samoa Admiral Kimberly’s Instructions—Ob- scure Points in the Complications Ex- plained by Secretary Bayard, WASHINGTON, D. O., January 29.—The Pres- ident will to-day send to Congress a com- munication on the Samoan guestion, not in response to any request that has been made by cither house, but for the purpose of assist- ing Congress to comply with his request made on January 14 for the exercise of the larger discretion conferred by the Constitution upon the legislative branch -of the Government. The communication of the President may serve the purpose of clearing up the talk that has been indulged in about an alleged ret agreement’’ between Secretary Bay- ard, Minister West of Great Britain and Minister von Alvensleben of Germany. The necessity for action upon the Presi- dent’s suggestion for the exercise of wider discretion’’ will, it is believed, take more definite sbape than the appropriation of halt a million of money for purposes not Indicated except in the words ‘‘to protect American interests. Judged by its course in the past, the German Empire will not let it pass with- out notice of the killing of the twenty-one sailors, who lost their lives in the recent en- counter at — 1 — In August, 1887, nee Bismarck declared, in a ! 1 to Minister von Alvensleben, his determination to make war upon Malietoa, to obtain the satisfaction and reparation which are due to our national honor’” because of certain rob- berries and other alleged injuries inflicted upon Germans, He made g that declara- tion by shelling towns, destroying houses and seizing lands. hut no German blood had been spilled. Now that offense has been committed, and tne Germans win unquestionably main- tain that it was committed while the German forces were employed in protecting German roperty. The later German attacks upon amoan towns were admittedly made in ac- cord with Bismarcks determination that the natives should be held to account for their disregard of German demands. Bismarck says that he is bound to bring about ‘‘necessary reforms in order to establish lasting peace. He can compel peace by subjugating the islands. It ia yet too early to expect to hear of a demonstra- tion in force to avenge the injury of the fifty- two killed and wounded, who were the victims of the affair of December 18. It is not expect ing too much to look fora report of a severe punishment of the natives who took part in the attack upon the Germans. WHAT WILL AMERICA DO? The American fleet will probably be on hand and watchful of the action of the Ger- mans. But what will the commanders of the United States ships do? Will they protest „ the unnecessary and cruel treatment of the natives, as they have done before, and then rest, Or will they forcibly interfere to yrevent the punishment of the forces of ataafa? The United States forces have no greater’ authority now than they had two years ago to interfere with Germanys plans for compelling the Samoans to regard the obligations to which Germany insists upon holding the islands. In- terference might result in serious conse- quences, much more serious, perhaps, than may be regarded by this government as de- sirable. When Prince Bismarck announced his purpose of making war on Malietoa in 1687, Havall had taken steps to form an alliance with Malietoa and to uphold his claim to be King. Bismarck said of this interven- tion In his characteristic blunt manner: ‘‘In case Hawaii, whose King acts according to financial principles which it is not desirable to extend to Samoa, should try to interfere in favor of Malietoa, the King of the Sandwich Islands would thereby enter into a state of war with us. The Admiral of the United States fleet is well acquainted with all the correspondence on the Samoan question. It is not at all likely that he has overlooked this utterance of Bis- marek. Will he interfere now, if his inter- ference seems likely to provoke Bismarck to apply to the United States, the words of his warning to Hawaii? Obecure Points Explained. BALTIMORE, Md., January 20.—In a special dispatch to the Sun from Washington a aum ber of obscure and doubtful pointsin the Sam oan complications are explained bystate- ments from Seeretary Bayard. Mr. Bayard says that Germany has given this country no casus belli, that our fag has not been insulted, or American property destroy- ed, and the whole question is, shall the coun- try assert the independence of Samoa by force of arms, need be, against German agres- sion? As this involves the question of peace or war, the determination of which resides with Congress, the whole subject has been referred to that body, the President not feel- ing authorized to take further steps whicn might precipitate hostilities.

Prof. Freeman Discusses the Points of Similarity — Possible Independence of Canada and Australia—The Unien of All English-Speaking Countries in a Loose Federstion a Possibility of the Future. HERE isan article in a late number of Macmillan's Magazine, dated from Sydney and signed B. R. Wise, which is eminently worth reading by any one who cares about the relations between the different English-speaxk- ing communities of the worid. It is, I venture to think, worth reading, not only in Great Britain and in the still dependent colonies of Great Britain, but in whatI hope I may venture to call the independent colonies of England—in the United States of America. Mr. Wise, an Australian colonist, seems to have no wieh whatever to separate his own land from the the rule of Great Btitain; but he speaks freely and truly against much of the nonsense which is talked under the name ot Imperial Federation. He modestly says that he does not speak upon behbalfof any one except acertain number of Australians,’’ but he says a good deal that is worth thinking of a good way beyond Australia. He talks, to be sure, about empire“ and imperial. The fashion, perhaps, is too strong for him to withstand, but it is in anything but the grand, swaggering imperial style that he writes. „»The interests of the several portions of the empire are various, and perhaps confiict- ing.’’ 4 person writing for Australia can- not without presumption express an opinion on the feelings of Canadians.’’ No truth can be more certain than this last. The difference in the position of Australia and Canada consists in this—- that Canada has, and that Australia has not, another English-speaking land marching on italong a vast frontier. This gives Canada a special chance which Australia has not. Australia may set up for itself or it may re- main dependent on Great Britain. So may Canada. Australia, again, either dependent or independent, may remain asystem of de- tached States, or it may, like Canada, form iteelf into a federal or quasi-federal body. But Manada may do a third thing besides either setting up for itself or keeping its connection with Great Britain. It may JOIN THE UNITED STATES. Australia has no such chance; there is no neighboring body like the United States to which it can attach itself. Again, Canada has one neighbor, and is not likely to have any more. Australia at present no neighbors, but is likely to have a goodmany. For, as Mr. Wise points out, Australia has a number of interests connected with India, China and the Eastern seas,in which Canada has no share. One of them, to be sure, touches the United States as well as Australia. In both lands the ola question between the European and the ‘barbarian has turned up again in a new shape. In other words, what is either land to do in the face of Chinese iinm®gration? But in the United States that question is isolated; in Australia it is joined on to a great many others. In Mr. Wise’s eve England is a power Asiatic rather, than —. — a doctrine which the Engli8b of Great Britain may some- times be tempted to use by way of a rhetori- cal flourish, but which they are certain never to act on practically In the way that Mr. Wise would seemingly wish. It might possibly sult Australia if the center of her empire —in older phrase, of the Queen’s dominions—were to be removed from Westmister to Delhi. But such a change would surely be a fresh tempta- tion to Canada to seek another center at Washington. Mr. speaks a good many home truths to those who are always talking about ‘‘Im- Federation,’’ without so much as s Vv * t depend. ency;’’ ‘‘the subjection to a distant country, however seldom thut subjection may be mani- ted, exercises & depressin uence on Saal 9 yrs 5 SR f sks * > os „ * 1 ry Mermod & Jaccard Jewel Cor.

One would like to know because the principle from which Sir Henry Parkes starts is eminently sound and true. Sir Henry explains himself more fully, one may dream a little dream of one’s own not for the first time. 1 ~ * van ey v n . 2 1 33 4 : * N : * “stay . * pe n n n 2 : ER i 7 “a 8 vi + ES ag N BUYERS OF MONDS é We shall offer this month, tory February 1, GREAT CONCE, TO INSURE IMMEDIATE SALES.

Still we may learn some- thing from Sir Henry Parkes, notwithstanding the fineness of his expressions. His negative conclusions do not go for much. Tue future of these Australian colonies’’ will not ‘‘be a copy of anything that has gone before.’’ They will not even cop the consti- tution of the United States of America. If anybody recommended that they should, he was not a very wise person, for assuredly no constitution can be translated bodily from one country toanother. But without ‘‘copying’’ the Constitution of the United States, the Aus- tralian colonies might very likely learn a good deal from it. The Swiss Federal Constitution is not a copy ot the American; but it is plam that those who framed it had studied the American Constitution and followed it so far as they thought SUITED THEIR OWN CIRCUMSTANCES. Sir Henry Parkes, moreover, does not be- lieve that the Australian colonies will ever think of copying any of the ancient republics. He who suggested that course must have been . yet more unwise than he who suggested the copying of the American Constitution; he must be so oddly unwise that one would really Hike to know who be is. Sir Henry Parkes may wellsay: ‘‘The thing is out of uestion.’’ But, without doing anything so oolish as trying to copy any ofthe ancient republics, it quite possible that Sir Henry Parkes ‘or anybody else might learn something by studying the rela- tions between wetropolis —— colony among the ancient republies—relatiens which had at least the advantage of making a course of independence neediess. But what most con- cerns us is Sir Henry Parkes’ notion of what is to happen to the speakers of English throughout the world, and seemingly to some who are not speakers of English. »I firmly believe that itis within the range of human probability that the great groups of free communities connected with England will, in separate federations, be united tothe mother country—not by any scheme such as has been called Imperial Federation, but by the empire being a compact central power, and free communities, like the North Amer- ican colonies, the Australian colonies, the African colonies and the settlements in India, being in independent federations conn by some new bond to the parent State. This is doubtless — expressed, but it is a little dark; the puzzling thing is whether by ‘‘the settiements in India’’ are meant merely Europeans in India, or whether Sir Henry Parkes is ready to enter into a federal bond with millions of Mussulmans and Hin- doos who would speedily outyote both Aus- tralia and Great Britain. Mr. Wise bolds Great Britian tobe a power more Asiatic than European, but he hardly wishes it to be Asiatic in this sense. But the most interest- ing part of Sir Henry Parkes’ remarks is yest O come. > „also think that in all reasonable proba- bility, by some less distinct bond, even the United States of America will be connected with this great English-speaking congeries of free governments. I believe the circum- ~ stances of the world will pe some such new complex nationality as this, in which. each of the parts will be free and independen& while united in one grard whole which wilk civilize the globe. There is clearly A GOOD TIME COMING; but its exact nature is still a little dark. Still Sir Henry Parkes has in the main got the sow by the right ear. We will not talk about an Imperial Federation; for what is federal cannot be imperial, and what is imperial can- not be federal. But when one hears of a fed- eration, not of the empire, not of the ueen’s dominions, but of that very aE) ae the English-speaking people have been for- tten. This is not the case with Sir Henry arkes. One may be a little puzzled aboat a ‘‘eongeries’’ of free governments: it is afeeble guess that a ‘‘congeries of govern- ments“ means a federalization of some kind. But Sir Heny Parkes clearly sees that in aur scheme for the whole of ‘‘the English-speak- ing people’’ the United States cannot be | out. Only what kind of federal tie can be found to unite them with that part of the En- ish-speaking people which inhabit Great 1 Britain and her still dependant colonies? No — tie, strictly so called, can be thought 0 > that States a common political clearly means something more definite than the mere ‘‘tie of sentiment’’ which ought Parkes cannot expect Britain and the United ever again acknowl authority.

Sunday’s election in Paris furnishes strong evidence that France has not yet grasped the full spirit and meaning of popular government through republican institutions. There still exists in the minds of the dominant classes a fear of the people. | This is the last remnant of the habits of political thought formed under a mon- archical form of government, It consists of a firm conviction that the ruling party essentially represents the government and that control by it is necessary to the actual preservation of existing institu- tions. On the other hand the people are looked upon as a huge monster which must be soothed, is to be feared, and may be pricked into madness by some desper- ate adventurer at any moment. At present, because BOULANGER has won the confidence and admiration of the peo- ple, and has gained their suffrages, he is regarded as a menace to the Republic and the possible leader of a revolution. There is serious talk of arresting him on one pretext or another. In this country, if the laws made it possible, one man might get every vote in the land, and yet no one would fear for the safety of the Republic. The party in control and the policy of the Government may change every four years, and the representative House of Congress every two years, with- out a hint of menace to free institutions. When the people of the United States ex- press their will, although it be ill-advised and unjust, itis obeyed with firm faith that, ultimately, right will prevail. Until respect for the will, confidence in the honesty and judgment, and implicit obedience to the demands of the people have been gained by Frenchmen, there can be no unwavering trust in popular Government in France. r . A DAY FOR IRELAND, The suggestion of the Post-DisPaTcH that the parade and banquet on St. Pat- rick’s day be omitted this year in order that the money which would be expended on feasting and displav be devoted to the aid of Mr. PARNELL is meeting with cordial approval from prominent Irish-Ameri- cans. The spirit which is represented by Sr. PaTRICK and which has made his memo- rial day a day of patriotic observance by all Irishmen is a spirit of sacrifice and of untiring labor for the good of one’s fellow-men. It is in this spirit that the Post-DiepaTcH invites all Irish- Americans and friends of liberty to co-operate with it in assuring justice to Mr. PARNELL and local self-government to the Irish people. The celebration of St. Patrick’s day is proper and commendable, but it would be singularly appropriate, this year, if it should be observed by making ita day of noble effort for the Irish leader and his countrymen who are fighting desperately for their rights. If all Irish-Americans on the 17th of March should drop, by common consent, the public and expensive celebration of the day as a mark of their sympathy with the homerule cause and for the purpose of giving the money which would be, oth- erwise expended to the help of Mr. Par- NELL and his associates the result would be a magnificent token of encouragement and a splendid contribution of needed means. There should be united and prompt ac- tion by Irish-Americans who favor thi plan to secure its adoption all over th United States. ew © — 1 THE cases of Mrs. Brack and Mrs. Roos and their children, described in the Post-DisPaTcH, presented pitiful spec- tacles of destitution and suffering. It seems incredible, wheff such ample pro- vision is made for charity, and when the sentiment of humanity is so widespread, that two families should be compelled to live on the street without shelter for several days during severe winter weather. The value of a newspaper in bringing needy poor to the agtention of charitable people was strikingly shown in this instance. Immediate relief was given to the poor creatures from funds sent to the Post-Dispatcu for the relief of destitute persons, and assoon as public attention was called to the cases by the paper there was no lack of activesympathy and aid. i, ww THE Post-DisPaTcH CHILDREN’S FUND has in the past two weeks provided shoes, stockings and flannels over 4,000 poor children. This ex t work has been done with the residue of the Posr- Dis- PATCH CHRISTMAS TREE FUND. All the money has been expended by the Posr- Disratce Children’s Fund Committee, but shoes, stockings and flannels still re- main on hand in sufficient quantity to meet several hundred more demands. Societies holding tickets are requested by the committee to apply them at once to deserving cases, as the committee desire to close the fund this week and make their report of the work they have done in the next SUNDAY Post-Dispaten. By extraordinary effort the proper in- dorsement on the envelope containing the certificate of the electoral vote of Texas | has been procured and delivered in time to the President of the Senate.

R COMMISSIONER Brack has kindly awarded ex-Gov. CRITTENDEN $15 a month, or more than seven times as much as the examining physicians rated his disability at. As Gov..CRITTENDEN is able to give away a great deal more than 816 a month m charity without missing the _—_ missioner BLAck's award is only a contribution to the available resources of charity, and that as old age shall increase the disability and the pen- sion the poor in Gov, ORITTENDEN’S vicinity will have reason to be thankful for his alleged rheumatism. Calling a Halt Already. From the New York Tribune (Rep.). The Samoan complications have reached a stage where passionate declamation and par- tisan criticism are to be deprecated. A new Administration isto be installed within six weeks, and the responsibility for the conduct of foreign affairs will be transferred from a Democratic Presidentand his advisers to a Republican President and Oabinet. * * * American diplomacy after March 4 must be made to fit in with American diplomacy be- fore Mareh 4. Hence it is most important that neither Congress nor the present State Department should multiply or increase the embarrassments under which the next Admin- istration will labor, and also that questions affecting the honor ot the nation should not de discusscd with heat and partisan feeling. .

CUTLER. ars of Untiring aud Unselfish Work Success and Happiness, Only ded by a Mother's Death—an Clou F 10 Be Who Wants to Make a Man Ex-Convict of pimself. STORY full of the most touching pathos has been brought to the surface by the deatn last week of Mrs, Sarah O' Laughlin, an old lady who lived at No. 1625 Linden street, a little thoroughfare which runs west from Twelfth street, in this city. It is a story such as one often reads about in novels and, asacritic would say, it is one, too, of human interest, for ita chief feature is the untiring and unselfish ui love ofa noble sister oung and once-foolish brother. t tour years ago a man was bela up on Locust and Twelfth streete and robbed ofa watch and chaln and some money. A day or two later & N. year -old- boy named Willie O'Laugblin vas caught in a well-known pawnbroker's establishment in an endeavor to sell the watch. The boy was arrested and the wated identified as the one which was ken from the man who had been robbed. The court records show that the boy pleaded guilty to attempted highway robbery and was sentenced to ive years in the penitentiary. He was sent to the State prison to serve his term. It vas the first time he had ever been guilty of serious wrong doing and, as he says pimecif, he bas had ample opportunity to meditate over the well worn maxim that honesty is, after all, the best policy. 4 SISTER'S LOVE. But although O’Laughlin felt keenly the. pein attaching to the situation, his mother and particularly his older sister, Mrs. Cutier, greatly, not alone from the pain caused by the unpleasant potoriety of the case, but more especially from their concern about the boy himself, who was frail and slightly built and, above all, unfitted for the rough life which awaited himin prison. He was taken away after a heart-breaking scene and started in to make the most out ofa decidedly bad situa- tion. Butalthough he had resigned himself to his fate his sister determined to do every thing in her powerto bring him back to bis home, and her efforts were spurred on by the fact that Mrs. O' Laughlin, the mother, was in bad health and in danger of dying before Willie could return home under the law. She was determined to get her brother out of prison, but she bad no very clear idea ‘of the best methods to followin the case. At any rate she knew that money would be necessary for the furtherance of her purpose, and she set to work to earn and save up an amount necessary. Outofthe earnings of her hus- band’s labor and her own exertions she had, in three years, accumulated a small sum which she intended to pay to a lawyer for his advice in the case and to expend in any other way necessary to obtain the release of her brotker. 4 PARDON GRANTED. The time for release was drawing near and only about @ year remained for him to serve, but Mrs. Laugulin's bealth wasin no way im- proved and it was evident that the boy’s par- don had to be obtained quickly. Is was at this functure that young G Laughlin himeelf was taken severely sick. He was subject to hemorrhages from the lungs and wus sent to the prison © then wrote to his mother and that the bysician at had told him that they despaired of his life. And further, that if she wished to see him alive again she would have to go to Jefferson City, as he was unable to move and, even if he were, there was yet a whole year of his sentence unserved. Mrs, Cutler now saw that something must be done and done gusty. She therefore took the money she had saved in the four years of her brother’s imprisonment and with it took her mother and a younger sister to Jefferson City. They found their brother very sicx indeed and ater a short interview with him they wert to the Governor and laid the case before him, pleading hard for the bey’s pardon. Gov, Morehouse was much moved and speedily granted the pardon. When the family returned from Jefferson City they brought with them young O’Laughiin who had, at the prospects ofa happy reunion with his mother and sisters, rallied and re- covered his health to a great extent. The fam- iiy came back to St. Louis and it goes without saying that for some time after their arrival home, the little house on Linden street was — — the brightest and happiest homes in merica. for ay Abou suffered THE MOTHER DIEs. subsided he sought and found employment at bis newly-learned trade and strove, in some measure at least, to Tepay the unselfish devotion of his sister and the love of his mother. But the old lady did not, as might be . regain her strength, and on January 22, a fit of apoplexy, assisted by a complication of troubles, carried her off. he death of his mother, instead of Casting the young fellow down only fired him with more ambition and made him more determined to fight the worid. He says he realizes the immensity of the task before him but is content to go ahead and build himself up. He is now a young man of modest and pleasant manners and is familliar With book-keeping and clerical work and ex- pects some day to win the confidence and regard of some business man who will help him to make a man of himself. Of course Mrs. Cutler is now as bappy as the day is long and is as proud of her brother as if he was one of the world’s heroes.

The Mechanies’ Exchange Will Ally Itself With the National Association. The Mechanics’ Exchange held an important meeting at noon to-day, The meeting was called for the purpose of considering the ad- visability of the Exchange joining the Na- tional Building Association. After discussing the question a vote was taken, the result of which was that the Exchange resolved by a large majority to ally nee with the national organization. It was also decided to send delegates ta the eon vention to be held in Philadeiphia, February The nationa! association allows one delegate for every fifty members and the St. Louis Exchange will be accordingly en- titled to five. The appointment of the dele- gates was left tothe President, but by a unani- mous vote it was decided that Mr. Rutter him- self be one of that number. The convention in Philadelphia will be a most important one. Among the questions to be econsiderea are: The system of uniform contracts, lien laws, rules and conditions for estimating on work, permanent arbitration, establishment of a bureau for furnishing sure- ties on building estimates and contracts, ap- prentice system, and the uniformity of meas- urement in building and in brick.

Wilsot Says the Colored People are Tired of Seeing Girls Whe Deny Their Race to Get Into the High School Appointed Teachers in the Colored Schoo] s—Legisiative Committee Meeting. HERE is much prob- ability that the Ool- ored Reform Com. mittee which has been dormant for some time will soon , advocate important measures for the bet - terment of the col - ored schools. The indignation of 3 numberof prominent persons in colored circles has lately been aroused by the action of several col - ored girls in denying their race to get into a 7 the Rich school, and a fi afterthey had com- pleted their education there making applica- tion for positions as colored teachers. Speaking about this matter this morning, Stephen M. Wilson, the leader of the Reform Committee, said: The colored people are getting tired of this imposition and propose to put a stop to it if possible, It is just such at- tempte of educated colored people to go beek on their race which has kept the colored peo- ple down so long, For years in this oi myself and others have been endeavor- ing to stir up a feeling ofrace pride among the colored people, and only lately we had a series of lectures delivered by Prof. Peter H. Olark for that purpose. respectable colored men in this comunity are now sufficientiy aroused notte tolerate any longer the imposition practiced on the race by young women who deny their origin when it suits them and proclaim it when it will be to their pecuniary advantage to make such an avowal. Only the other day a young airl whose parents are colored graduated at the High School, she having entered there on the claim that she was white. Now it would b °F 2 e 1 7 ae oF 4 re wat . 8 . » 8 a. 355. 3 7 253 . 8 a a Wer 8 >. i: 7 n a ah 4 7 ? ee . 2 * ay * 4 * 8 * = 2 ee ae 8 RK y FO. ey “ e ar a, S. ee K * ? 1) N = bie * * 3 1 8 . 3 . * * 9 * * ae T 0 { 8 A . : out — 9 — . ~ « I believe that the be several years before that young woman could obtain a position as teacher in a white schoo!, and so she makes applica- tion for a position as a colored teacher and will easily obtain a posi- tion as an educator of coloredchildren. Now, what does an individual of that kind do for the colored race? Does she help advance it? No, by her example others are taught to be ashamed of the fact that they are colored. there are a number of others now teaching in the colored schools who got there in the same way asthe young ladyI refer to; denying their race to GET A HIGHER EDUCATION ina white schoo! and then acknowledging it u to their worldly interest to do so. And they supplant good colored girls who have worked hard to fit themselves for teachers and who are not ashamed of the fact that they are colored, and would inculcate that feeling in the minds of the young, instead of creating the impression in their youthful brains that because they were colored they were on that account alone inferior to a white person, ‘‘aAnother reform which is much needed, and to effect which strong action is contem- plated,’’ continued Mr. Wilson, t to get the married women out of the colored schoois. In many instances both wife and husband are teaching, and young girls who ought to have itions are thus snut out. 224 well known act, moreover, that these m ed teachers are mostly the least competent of any of those who are in the sohools. The feeling of race pride has become mueh strengthened in this city lately and I think I cum assure you that bolere long action will be taken to effect the reforms in the colored schools which I have mentloned. SCHOOL LEGISLATION, The Legisiative Committee of the School Board wilt meet to-morrow afternoon. Pres- dent Judson was called on this morgiug and asked if i@were the intention of the commit- tee to draw up as com L bill to oduced in the siature. 3 said: I cannot state positively what will be done, but I do not think the com- mittee when created was authorised to take such action. The —— for which the committee was appointed, 1 think, was to consider what legislation in the interests of the schools was deemed ad- visable end then report their opinion. If the committee decides that any certain legisia- tion is deemed necessary, and their recom- mendation is indorsed by the board, the com- mittee will then 8 likely go to Jefferson City and endeavor, to the best of their ability, to secure the passage of whatever bill way be thougut conducive to the betterment of our i system.’’ n NOTES. 8 Committee on Polytechnic Repairs met Mik sy Two bids fur lighting the building were considered, but the contract was not awarded, the committee deciding to wait for re bids. : The work of repairing the directors’ room he next regular meet- early completed. oA, on February 12 will be held there. HER MABRIAGE A FAILURE, Mrs. Annie Fee and Her Daughter Tell a Very Queer Story. Mrs. Annie Fee, an elderly lady living at No. 4019 North Broadway, was before Judge Anderson this morning on a charge of disturb- ing the peace. The testimony relating thereto brought forth a tale of domestic infelicity which showed most empbutically that the marriege of her daughter Aunie to John Dowd had proven a failure, The nuptials lebratead on March 2, last — ‘aaa in the May followin Ur.

Mrs. Dowd brought suit in the Court of Crim- inal Correction against her derelict spouse shortly after the separation, but the matter was compromised and did not come to trial. In December last Mrs. Dowd became a mother, and since that time she has tried on various occasions to induce Mr. Dowd to contribute something to the sup of her- golf and child.

O. Jacob- son Refused a License. 2p HIS afternoon’s meeting the Board of Police ommissioners will be very interesting to two classes of people—the op- ponents and the friends of the dives. It is very probable that a new plan will be proposed and adopted for the investiga- tion of the moral char- * acter and surroundings of dramshop-keepers whose applications have been referred to the Board of Police Com- missioners by the Collector for investi- gation. The plan adopted heretofore has been to refer the appli- cations to the Chief of Police, who in turn would refer them to the Captain in the dis- tricte in which the saloons were situate, who in turn would refer them to the sergeants of the precincts, who in turn would call upon the patroimen walking the beats past the doors of the dram-shops. The theory of this sys- tem has been that the errors of the patrolmen were subject to correction by the sergeants, who were to be reviewed by the captains, whose findings were to be overhauled by the Oh iet, who would be expecte} *~ satiafy the board of the correetness of the report. While this house-that-Jaek-built plan has some advantages and in theory is well nigh perfect, yet ithas been found that the ser- geants have not always reviewed their patrol- men’s work, the captains have not been al- ways careful to ascertain the correctness of the sergeants’ reports, while the Chief has merely transmitted to the board the work of his subordinates. MALICE, PREJUDICE AND GRATITUDE for small favors are liable to bias the judg- ment of an individual, but it would be strange if, under proper review at the bands of four other individuals sueh bias should remain in @ report. . to secure that proper review which is as necessary for the secused as for the community, it has been suggested that instead of making the references: of dram shop applications through the chief to the captains, thence through the sergeants to the patrolmen the applications be referred to the Commissioner having charge of the dis- trict in which the dram-shop is situate with instructions to report nis Sanding on the moral character of the owner an surroundings of the saloon. This would give the commissioners direct charge of the in- vestigation, and in it they would bave the aid of every patrolman, sergeant, captain and detective in the Police Department and might also take the testimony of reputable citizens. This sort of an investigation would more complete than the present system ad- mits of. It would not be limited by any district precinct or beat boundary lines. but would extend to all the interests and records of the men under investigation. As has been said heretofore the system which bas been in operation bas had GOOD RESULTS, but itis believed the new system would be be more fair and would have better results. One good issue of the old system was the closing of Patrick Montague’'s dive at 413 Mor- gan street. Another has been the reduction to a state of half collapse of Jake Esher's dive at 712 St. Charles street. Another has been the closing of Louis Lippe’s hole at 713 Wasen street. Another has been the complete ex- tinction of Charles Closten’s evil resort at 1000 Pine street. Other results have been the forcing of C. H. Tylerof Eleventh and Morgan streets and Fletcher & Brophy into other lines of business than the distribution of ardent liquors to depraved customers. Other goods resuits and some bad results might be men- tioned in this connection. That the new plan would strengthen the bands of the Collector is plain, for the re- ports would come to him r more careful and broader investigation of the cireum- stances surrounding dram-shop keepers whose applications the collector has seen fit to refer for inquiry. THE FOLLOWING LIST of applicants tor dram-shop licenses is before the board to-day. On them the question mentioned above wil) probably be Me the commissioners can be made to see the force of tue uments that will be ad- duced in support of the suggestion the new pian will carry: Curtis & Spaulding, 1101 Morgan street.

THE MAYOR GETTING EVEN, _- ~ Blackbalied by Club Members He Sues Them for Debt. By Telegraph to the Posr-Disrracn. OTTAWA, Ontario, January 29.—Quite a social sensation has been caused here by the black- balling of Mayor Errat and Dr. Valade last week bythe newly organized Ottawa Club. Their proposal for membership was the result of a champagne supper atthe club. The bal- lot was a joint one and one-seventh being against them they were declared ineligible. The club was 8 made up of Government employes in ign positions ‘who let it be understood that they did not want either of the two mentioned in the club Decause they were both in trade, one be- ing a chemist and Mayor Errat keeping a large furniture store. Yesterday Mayor Errat got uare on the exclusives by suing each of the wa Club men whose houses are furnished | from his stock, all of whom owe. considerable alances.

He says in a card: I do not propose to allow any one to claim the championship until I have been de- feated. I want a fight toa finish with Demp- sey, with skin tight gloves. I am willing to ‘ave the fight take place before a San Francisco club for a guaranteed purse of , 000. the outside that I will win. Thus a stake of $10,000 would be assured. Dempsey has either got to meet me or admit that he is afraid to do so. I, therefore, have placed a forfeit of $500 ‘inthe hands of the sporting editor of the Philadelphia Item, and will be prepared to meet Dempsey to a finish in any section of the East where a fight can be brought off without interference of the authorities and fair play on both sides. Ihave always met my opponents on their own terms and fought on my merits. Dempsey declares he wants tofight. I want one, too, andI wantone with him particu- larly, without indulging in any hot collar or unnecessary talk. If he can defeat me he can win money enough to retire from the ring. If he loses he can still have a chance to get even by annihilating Mitchell.“ SAM BRYANT’S TALK. The Owner of Proctor Knott Blanks“ Them One and All. Juaged by correspondence from Louisville the friends of Sam Bryant ought to put a muz- zie on him. By his reported talks“ he seems to fear that all the owners in the coun- try are in league to do him and Proctor Knott an injury. His statements are of the wildest and most erratic character, says an Eastern writer. Toone correspondent he said that the abolishment of the rule allowing geldings three pounds was aimed especially at Proctor Knott. As if any such a law could affect arrangements made in the East or the West previous to the change in the rules. To another corresponda- ent he complained that the weights were raised to suit rich owners able to hire Mc- Laughlin, Garrison, Fitzpatrick or Hayward, forcing him, a poor man, to engage only light weight. ryant seems to have forgotten that last year he said he would not trust any of them; that ‘‘Pike’’ Barnes was good enough. Bry- antalso seems to be very sore over the fact that Mr. Haggin and Mr. Lorillard would not pay $30,000 for Proctor Knott, as if either ever made any offer, saying: ‘‘That’s the horse they wouldn't give $30,000 for. D—n’em, I'll make em wish they’d given $50,000. They’ll be just like them stuck-up fellers in the East. When I took Proctor Knott to Monmouth to win the Junior Champion they all gave me the laugh and sneered at mycolt. They said he was a ‘purty good colt for out West, but that he ‘needn’t expect no show with them East- ern cracks.’. Cracks be d—d! I nad em all eatin’ — before the half-mile pole was reached. They said he was no count, but you bet they was glad enough to go to the deck before the Futurity was run.

They'll be glad enough to buy him before the Chicago Derby’s run, just as they was before the Futurity.’’ Mr. Bryant's reference to ar offer to buy Proctor Knott before the Futurity is evidently almed at Mr. Belmont, who not only never made any such offer, but never thought of it. Bryant has been the yictim of several practical jokes which he has never been able to see through. He has a good horse in Proc- tor Knott, and after he has won the Two Thousand at Nashville, the Clark at Nash- ville, the Derby at Latonia and the American Derby at Chicago he will be as warmly con- gratulated as he was after he won the Futuri- ty, and if he then brings the horse to Mon- mouth and wins the Lorillard he will not lack friends any more than he did after he won the Junior Champion. Freddy and the Lily. Recent purchases of thoroughbred stock by Mr. Gebhard and Mrs. Langtry have created new interest in the California ranches owned by them. Dr. C. W. Aby, manager of the ranches, while in Louisville recently looking for fashionably bred brood mares, thus de- scribed the estates toa reporter of the Com- mercial: ‘*Both ranches lie side by side in the Coyote valley, which is eighty-four miles by rail from San Francisco. Mr. Gebhard’s place contains 4,500 acres and Mrs. Langtry’s 3, 300 acres. Although he manages both ranches, each are run separately, a different set of books being required, and for one place he is accountable to Mr. Gebhard, while, in con- nection with the other, his reports must be sent to Mrs. Langtry. Before leaving Cali- fornia on her behalf he purchased a $3,000 bull to be placed at the head of her herd of cattle, which number 400 head. Fifteen hun- dred acres of the land in both places is in grain and the balance in pastures and meadow. The thoroughbreds now number only sixteen head, but this number 1s in- creasing judicious purchases. On Gebhard’s lace there is a huge dimensions, hillside land is Dr. Aby now wears a watch charm, in the center of which is a dia- mond, avery handsome stone, which was picked up by him while the soll was being turned overin front of the stabie door. In the future Mrs. Lan Will spend ber sum- mers there, and even this early preparations are being madeto make everyting comfort- able and pleasantfor her coming when the theatricai season ends. She is enthusiastic over California, and expresses her determina- tion when she retires from the stage of set- tling down in the Golden State and passin the evening of her life amid the sunshine an flo wers oi that glorious climate.’’ Al Mays’ Marriage. A curious thing has come up about the wed- ding of Al Mays, the pitcher sold by Brooklyn to Columbus. He was married to Miss Belle, daughter of Andrew Fow, who lives at St. Joseph’s Hill, near New Albany, Ind. She was visiting an uncie in Louisville when she met Mays and agreed to elope with him. They went to Jeffersonville on the night of January 3, and were married by a Justice of the Peace. r. Fow is a Catholic, and while he does not object to the marriage in itself, he demands that his daughter be remarried in accordance with the rites of hischurch. The time for the nd wedding has not been set, but it swill o place in a few days. Winter Bal) Gossip. **Pop’’ Smith is a class B man. Boston released Hornung unconditionally.

A DISGUISED BLESSING. THE PRESENT SCARCITY OF GAME INDICA- TIVE OF FUTURE ABUNDANCE. The Dearth of Game Birds and Venison in the Markets and Ite Causes—An Open Winter Preserves the Game-—Parties of Trappers and Pot-Hunters Slaughter in the Snow. HE appearance of our markets this year is very differ- ent from that usually presented. Not for years has there been a season during which game has been so scarce and dear as it is this Winter, said Will- iam B. Altdort, who was seen by arep- resentative of the Posr-Disraren atthe Laclede Hotel. Be- sides being an entbusiastic hunter myself, I have for a number of years been interested in the purchase and sale ot game, and this has necessitateda knowledge of the haunts and habits of our game birds and animais such as it would be saimost impossibie fora simple sporteman to acquire. I have heard it remarked with regret twenty times over that our game was fast disappearing, and the condition of the .market this winter bas been introduced as a proof of this asser- tion. * A BLESSING IN DISGUISE. It is true that the game laws are not nearly so strict as they should be, and such as they are their enfOrcement is the rare exception, but instead of this winter’s market being a sign of presentand coming dearth, it is most encouraging to all who desire to see our game birds and animals increase ia numbers. The reason of the present scarcity is not that game cannot be found, but that it has not deen killed. The cause of this is to be found not in the too effective work of the hunter and trapper, but in the fact that the winter has been warm and open to an unexpected degree. This operates in two ways, both of which op- erate in favor of the game and against its de- struction ; the greater difficulties met with in finding and killing. birds and deer, and the smaller reward offered to the pot-hunter. First, astothe quail. This bird is probably the only one that increases in numbers with the advanoe of civilization. The planting of corn and wheat flelds enabies ten quail to pick up a living where one did before, and if the gun alone were used there would be no danger whatever of the supply running short. TRAPPING QUAIL. But to the gun has been added the far more deadly net, and by ite use the quail stand a very good chance of being exterminated. The season for the successful operation of the net is winter, and the colder and more snowy the better. ary season the quail, about in flocks of * 0 | by the cfowd together night This leads sake of warmth. to dense packing, as itis term in favora- ble localities from five hun to two thou sand birds being found within a very few rods. These localities are well known to the pot-hunter, and here he sets his net, with a trail of wheat leading to them. These nets are really nothing more than long tunnels of twine, the birds, when once they have en- tered, not having sense encugs we turn about and get out as they got in. hen the quail are closely packed all the birds within a radius of several miles can be captured in this way, and during the next winter scarcely any cam be found. Another deadly trick of the t-hunter is for two or three of the guild to crawito some sheltered hollow where the birds are known to be, and there await the rising of the sun. At night the quail pack closely, and during a cold snap several hundred will be collected in . N mass within a space afew yards in diameter. As soon as itis light, and before the birds are fairly awake, at a given si three or four heavy duck guns are fired into the mass of feathers, with terribie effect, as even more are wounded than killed. This winter, however, these tactics have not been possible. But tittle snow has fallen, all the fields are open, and the birds are almost as much scattered as in the fall. Where this is the case the netter reaps but a small harvest, and the legitimate sportsman is the only one who can hope for any success. : PRAIRIB CHICKENS 4 WEATHER.

MOUNTAIN DEER. „Our Ozark Mountain and Arkansas deer have also Deen protected by the open winter, and the im bility of sending the game to market. Nearly all the venison received in St. Louis this year has come from Wisconsin and Minnesota, the hunters inthe Ozarks, after having bad several shipments thrown back on their hands because they were spolled, refusing to waste their time to no purpose. The Missouri stock of deer will be immensely benefited by the suspension of hunting for a year, and next year the increase in numbers will be fully 1 per cent. The dearth during this year means plenty for sev- eral years to come, and should hailed with joy by. both hunters and ep icures.’’ WEDDING GIFIS AND INVITATIONS, iful New Goods in SOLID SILVER WARES, SILVER-PLATED WARES, CLOCKS, CUTLERY, DIAMONDS, WATCHES, LAMPS.
