Jared The City Central Committee Entrusted With No Funds Except What Was Obtained From the Candidates by Threats—Mr. H. L. Rogers Will Make the Race for Comptroller on the Union Laber Nomi- nation—The Last Changes Made ip the Ticket— Both Sides Confident—Figures for Comparison—In the Wards. T is the eve of the bat- To-night the Re- > publican and Demo- cratic forces will sleep on their arms and at sun - up to-morrow the fire will open. To-day the arsenals containing +n ballots are under „guards hired by the =2Central Committees. This is a precaution | hardly necessary in these days of political warfare. When the 2 statutory regulations concerning the forms of ballots were less definite it was a great trick of the skirmishers of one party to obtain a sample of the ballot of the opposition. .The heading was then coun- terfeited and the other ticket was printed on the ballot. In those days odd designs were devised to make the rmance of this trick the more difficult. The ballots were guarded with great care. Since then statutes have been enacted making any ballot intended to deceive illegal. The practice Is still continued, however. Inthe Republican camp the picket guards to-night will not if truthful men an- nounce that is all well. It was reported yesterday that Messrs. R. O. Rerens and J. W. Gates had made arrange- ments to put $10,000 into the campaign for the success of the Reoublican ticket. Up to noon to-day no $10,000 bundle had arrived. The report reached the Central Committee headquarters that Messrs. Ritchey, Reynolds and Pearce had a $4,000 bag in the Laciede Building, but the committeemen were given no more tangible evidence of the fact, to their disgust. The only fund in charge ofthe committee is that subscribed by the candidates on assessment, Thisinciudes the $8,000 which Col. Butler contributed. The committee threatened all candidates who did not pay the sums assessed against them with removal from the ticketon the authority conferred by the convention. There is a rumor in the Repub. can strong- holds that Pohlman and Filley w ll give buta weak support to the Republican candidate. Several little arrangements which have come to light indicate that some of the Re- ublican politicians are slaughtering Butler 2 elect Ziegenhein Collector. Thie will react and give Sexton a large American Republican vote which if it were not for this treachery would be cast for the whole Republican ticket. The Democrats are jubilant and are talking about immense Noonan majorities. At the headquarters at Tenth and Locust streets every Democrat one meets can demolish the Republican ee of last November in two moves. oonan, Sexton, Brown, Haley and telmbacher stocks are quoted high. Judge Noonan’s candidacy is being handled with great judgment. Noonan precinct men will be on duty — rw poll in the ‘city to-morrow mornin and within an hour after the 8 close will report to the central organization. The pur - pose of this is to escape treachery and mis- takes. Last November Francis counted on 1,300 votes in two wards at 3 o’clock in the afternoon of election day, and was snowed under. Judge Noonan’s managers propose to prove how this is done if the same fate is in store for their candidate. To learn the detalis of the election these precinct men have been appointed.

C., April 1.—The Commis- sioner of the General Land Office, with the : ot Secretary Noble, has issued to the r and receivers of the newly established land offices in Oklahoma a letter of instructions, which is of syecial interest persons desiring to settle in that Territory. most important features of the letter of otions are the following: „ou will observe thatthe statute reserves sections 18 and 86 in every township for school ; and the proclamation reserves for — use and control the following: One acre of iand in uare form in the northwest corner of section 9. township 16, north range 2 west of the Indian meridian in Indian Territory, and also one acre of land im the southeast corner of the northwest quarter of section 15, township 16, mortb, range 7 west of the In- dian meridian, in the Indian Territory. The remainder of the lands are made subject to by actual settlers under the general homestead laws with certain modifications. **Your attention is directed to the circular sued by the office January 1, 1889, contain- ing the homestead laws and official regula- ions thereunder. These laws and reguia- ions will control your action, but modified by speci rovisions of the land act of March in the following particular, viz.: he rule stated on page 178 of said cir- cular under the title: Only one homestead 8 to the same rsoa permitted, ig do modified as to admit of a homestead entry being made by any one, who prior to the Papen ot said act, had made a homestead entry but failed from any cause to secure a title in fee to the Jand embraced therein, or who, having secured such title did 80 what is known as the commutation of his homestead entry. With regard to persons making homestead en- tries anc failing to acquire title thereunder, or commuting them after the passage of said act of March 2, 1889, the rule ae to second homesteads, is operative and will be enforced in relation these lands as well as others. Mr. Teller said: ‘*I do not intend to ask a consideration of this resolution at this time. 1 merely offer it that it may be referred to the Committee on Rules.

Report of the University,Jnvestigating Com- mittee—The Liquor Bill. By Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., April 1.—Senator Sebree submitted majority and minority re- ports from the University Investigating Com- mittee in the Senate and Champ Clark did the same in the House. As foreshadowed some time since, the committee could not agree. Senators Shelton and Sheldon and Repre- sentatives Clark, Webb and Houck joined in the majority report, which recommends the dismissal of President Laws and Prof. Sanborn, while the minority report, signed by Sanator Sebree‘and Representatives Newberry of Bates and Brooks of Carroll, de- clines to join in such recommendation. The evidence is voluminous, and so are the re- ports. Both were ordered printed, the print- ing to take precedence over all other printing. A number of bills were reported back from committees this morning. Among the most important was the bill revising the school law. This bill makes the county superin- tency system optional with the voters of the county and graduates the salary of county superintendents into four classes, ranging from $300 to $1,200, according to the school pop- ulation of the county or counties adopting the superintendency system. The bill also re- quires the public schools to be taught six months in the year in country districts instead of four as at present. The joint committee on revision reported back the chapter of the revised statutes on corporations with several important changes inthearticles relating to telegraph and banking companies, and also a building and loan association not located in the State. The bill, as amended, requires non-resident building associations to deposit $100,000 with the State before obtaining authority todo business In the State. It also prohibits a pri- vate banker from becoming a director in an incorporated bank. The House resumed consideration of the liquor bill this morning, going into the com- mittee of the whole at 10 o’clock. Several amendments were offered, but none of im- portance were adopted. At 12 o’clock the committee arose, reported progress and the House adjourned. be bill remains as strong as it was when first reported from the Jurisprudence Committee. The amendments have not weakenec, but rather made it stronger. The feeling in the House this morning was stronger for the bill than on Saturday. Manyof the Senators were pres- ent during the discussion. Fogel of Schuyler and Shaw of Ste. Genevieve led the opposi- tion. Moore of Laclede warned the house against liquor lobbyists, and friends of the measure down allamendmentsto which Shaw replied that there were no liquor lobbyiste here. Dr. Jones of Stone, whosays he is a straight out Prohibitionist, is aleo opposing the measure on the ground that free whisky is preferabie to license or regulation. Free Art Exhibition.

From the Boston Herald. | In view of the popular and overweaning confidence in medicines, it requires no little moral eourage for the physician to act honestiy with his patient. When ill, far too many put their whole reliance upon drugs, failing to realize the oft repeated fact that they alone can never cure, nor are they of any great assistance evenin the management of many ailments. There was a time when physicians treated disea lowed established rules which, we may say, th ought acted as an- tidotes for them. In each instance they had special remedies for this stage and for that stage of every common disease, and those they administered in a stereotyped way. But all that is changed now; instead of treating the patient’s disease the modern physician treats the patient. He does not walk in any beaten track. He has no fixed and unchangeable method of tredtment for any disease. He treats every patient as he finds him. Take, as an illustration, his course in typhoid fever. Day after day he visits his patient and studies his condition. He knows very well that if he can keep up the sufferer’s strength for a certain.time, and dur- ing that time no dent happens, then re- covery is sure to t place,for the fever must inevitably subsi Perhaps for a week the patient does we nder careful nursing and feeding alone; then the physician detects a symptom for him to combat; he administers a remedy, and discontinues it when no longer needed. Soon another symptom arises and is treated, but always when the medicine has done its work it is stopped. And so he goes on throughout the entire course, always on the alert and treating exigencies as they arise. His patient has lost his reckoning, is off a lee shore, and drawing on to the rocks; the phys- ician takes the wheel and brings him intoa safe anchorage. People ought to havea just appreciation of the relative agency of nature and medicine in the recovery from disease. Says Flint, in slightly changed language: ‘‘It is customary and convenient to personify disease, speaking of it as an enemy to be recognized, attacked, and, if possible, vanquished. Remedies and therapentical methods are said to be curative, as if disease were overcome exclusively by them. The mind should not be deceived by those figurative expressions. In reality re- covery from disease is always effected by nature—that is, by the agency of processes in- herent in the organism. All that art can do is tojfremove obstacies to the OPERATION OF NATURAL PROCESSES, and to promote their favorable operation. Take as an example a remedy which is consid- ered as specially curative, namely, quinine, in chills and fever; this remedy, strictly speaking, does not cure the disease, using the term cure in its conventional sense, but it re- moves something on which the continuance of the disease depends. This something re- moved, nature effects the cure. Let it not be considered that, to attribute supreme agency to nature, isto disparage art. The triumphs of the latter are made none the less beneficent and brilliant by subordination to the former. In several issues of the Sunday Herald there have been discussed the drugs with which people are most familiar. Returning now to them the next on the list to claim attention is borax, an article avout which it would appear but little could be said; and yet there are a few relative facts worth mentioning. As an internal remedy, borax was once quite highly esteemed, but is now practically little used, except in canker, in which af- fection itis still considered very efficacious. It is a mineral astringent, milder than alum, and can be used more fr iy. In the treat- ment of canker it can have some, but very lit: tle effect. In that trouble, the little ulcers ought to be touched with caustic; after that a d gave medicines solution of borax and water used as a mouth wash will hasten a cure. Borax and honey is an old-time remdy inthe sore mouths of chil- dren. The borax is well enough, but the honey cannot be of any benefit. A better way to use borax for the purpose is this: Have the druggist make up a powder composed of borax, 1 drachm; myrrh, 10 grams; white sugar, one-half an ounce. Let all this be very finely powdered. If the child with a sore mouth is a mere infant the quantity of borax should be one-half a drachm insteadof a drachm; but if it is 2 or 3 years old the larger quantity first advised can be used. Every two or three hours take up with the thumb and forefinger “a pinch’’ of this pow- der and drop it on the tongue. Its effect is always very satisfactory. Boracie acid is used much more by physicians than is borax, from which itis obtained. It has generally been held as non-poisonous, but recently a case of poisoning by it through absorption has been reported. This clearly shows what we have been trying to impress upon people that even what are held to be absolutely harmless rem- edies are capable of doing grievous injury if improperly used. Many who suffer from na- sal catarrh are in the habit of using douches, which in avery small proportion of cases might do some — but in much the largest proportion do harm. Salt and water is the popular agent, but that is of much less value than a solution of boracic acid, one teaspoon- ful to the pint. A WORD MORE ABOUT DOUCHES in catarrh. Noone oughtto resort to them unless advised to do so by a physician, and in cold weather one must be extremely cautious in their use. They should under all circum- stances be blood warm, and for several hours after employing them the person should re- main in a comfortably warm room, otherwise he is quite certain to suffer from a cold in the head. As might be expected, considering the na- tional characteristics, Americans have made themselves quite familiar with nervous seda- tive Bromide of potassium promises soon to be. ~wbered among the ‘‘domestic reme- dies. N use is to be deplored, for, instead © being harmless, as many people suppose, it. capable of doing considerable injury. It qu. an excited brain and cre- ates in that way a tendency tosleep. Hence the common use by non-professionals is for insomnia. They have not as yet learned that the bromide of potassium isnot nearly as highly esteemed by physicians as it once was. It is true that there are certain disturbances in which this remedy acts very well if com- bined with other drugs. But it is rarely used alone, and to a very great extent ithas been supplemented by other and far more eflicacious agents. he layman is strongly urged never to use ‘‘bromide’’ on his own responsibility. And in sleeplessness, for which heis most likely to use it, he ought toemploy far better and safer means. In nervous debility it would appear to do good for a time, but in the end it would do harm. If the nerves are weak they should be strengthened, and the bromide of potassiam is no tonic; it simply quiets them, and after the immediate effect has passed off they are as excitable as before. Not only that, but more excitable, for to still further There are other bro- besides that of potassium, but no can result from a description of them. hat we have said of the one holds good with the others; they have their 1 amon remedial agents, but only an educated physi- olan can tell when it is right and ay te to use them.

It is certainly harmless, and for the purposes for which it is used it doubtless does some good. The internal use of camphor as do- mestic remedy should be lim and people must be exceedingly careful not to confound it with the spirit. Considering the extreme liability to do that, the safest rule is to never take camphor internally éxcept when directed todo sobya physician. T need of caution will appear when the state- ment is made that poisoning by camphor is not a very unusual accident. Children are the most frequent victims. Ten grains of the gum was sufficient to kill one child 18 months old. People who use spirits of cam- phor often attempt to dilute thesame with water. Others endesvor to make a solution of camphor with water. When thatis added to the spirit the alcohol unites with the water and ‘‘throws down’’ the camphor in little white flakes. As for making a solution of camphor with water, if it is boiling hot, some would, of course, be dissolved, but the solu- tion would not be strong enough to have an effect as an application. Always use alcoho to make astrong solution. The most marked symptoms of camphor poisoning are vomit- ing, convulsions, incessant for a time, vallor of the face, chilling of the skin, finally pro- found stupor. ms to ADVANCE IN STAR-GAZING, Harvard Leads in the Astral Art—Horizontal Telescope Designed by Pickering. From the Boston Globe. Harvard Observatory is becoming quite an observatory village. The old structure, with its dome-surmounted roof and monasterial aspect, looks down on quite a group of dome- roofed cottages. Each one of these is an ob- servatory with its special line of work. The latest addition to this group has an architect- ure of its own; its roof is not topped by a dome; it is a one-story, flat-roofed structure from 12 to 14 feet square. Shoot- ing out from the west side of itis a cvlinder- shaped tube ofa trifle over a foot in diame- ter. This terminates in something that looks quite like a dog kennel, perched on a brick pier, four feet high. A rustic might easily fancy that this cottage was some bachelor’s quarters, and this tube was the entrance to the kennel! of his favorite setter. But, presto! The walls of this seeming ken- nel vanish anda rare mirror is exposed to view. Itis eighteen inches in diameter, its glass is four inches thick; it is facing the heavens. Has the occult craze reached Har- vard? Is this the magic wirrar that the old astrologer used to peer into? It is a magic mirror, but its magicis subtler than thatof Nostradamus. A 12-igch object glass of the finest French manufacture is peering into it, and this tube is a part of a horizontal -telescope 18612 feet long—one of the latest triumphs of the Clarks’ skill. The inventor of this device for holding the mirror upto nature is Prof. Ed- ward C. Pickering. Most astronomers are content to work with the instruments*they find by them, whether they be bad or good. Prof. Pickering looks at the work to be done, and then asks him- self: ‘‘Have I an adequate instrument to do this work? If not, I must devise one. The meridian D which has achieved such satisfactory results in the past decade at the observatory, came about in this way: Photometer means a light measurer. The magnitude of stars has been approximated by guessing, with and without the aid of a tel- escope, but the guesser does not always guess alike. A machine works uniformly. Take the bulk of this work from the guesser and you approach uniformity. The meridian pho- tometer was intended to meet that demand. Ite aperture was four ipches, and the vast amount of work done * . Deen with the naked eye stars ¢ wt catalogue stars, Naked eye stars are those from the first to the sixth magnitude. The catalogue stars are | those from the sixth to the ninth magnitude, Mr. Gerrish has been sent witb this instru- ment to the Harvard station on the elevations of Peru tofinish this work. This new photo- metric telescope, with the added power that a 12-inch glass gives, is to supplement this work with the faint stars from the ninth to the fourteenth magnitude. Suppose we take alook at this modest ob- servatory. We find a hooded gas jet casting a subdued light, and, strangest and pleasing surprise, we are not chilled to the bone, for here isa gas stove diffusing a genial warmth. The mirror abd object giess are no longer ein- side to be blurred by the heat. The ticking of the sidereal clock makes it seem doubly comfortable. In the middle of the room sits the curtained observer. A companion telescope of a five-inch aperture has brought an image of the pole star into the eyepiece of the large telescope. That is his given datum to work from; its magnitude is known. The mirror outside has caught the image of the star he wishes to observe or measure. A recorder sits by the side of the large tube, an eye lens shows nim the declina- tion, a circular braes plate connected with the mirror outside registers the right ascen- wg oe Thus the results are carefully tabu- ated. The field that the mirrorsweeps extends an hour each side of the meridian. That ie, stars may be held in view two hours. Electricity doled out by an electric clock adjusts the mir- ror to the appara: motion of the stars. Taken altogether, it isquite a wonderful in- strument. By means of an attached ring micrometer it can be used for ascertaining the position of stars. Nor does its usefuiness stop at position, but extends to the composi- tion and ‘motion of the stars and the study of stellar spectra. The horizontal telescope is expected to do good work. This is quite an advance over the old meridian photometer, that could be used only in ascer- taining magnitudes. Cataloguing the stars is but the beginning of astronomy. It is what classification is in bot- any. The images of stars on a mirror, ona sensitive plate or in accumulated stellar spec- tra—these are the data for future investiga- tions in astronomy. For the collecting of this data this horizontal telescope promises to be an invaluable aid. This telescope meets a want in another direction. Practical modern astronomy is not slow to avail itself of every help. The clear, dry air of mountain heights proinises results more accufate than the bumid air of land near the sea level. The 12 or 15-inch equatoriel, besides its own tons of weight, wants a solid column of masonry for its support. Prof. Pickering, in a paper be- fore the Appalachian Club, claims that an in- strument ofthis kind can be taken to pieces and transported on muleback, or by men, to heights inaccessible to the upright telescope, Astronomy bas been called the queen of the sciences; but queens, even in science, are out of place m our democratic America. Even science must cease to be exclusive; it, too, if it would abide, must be by the people and for the people. This telescope is a democratic one, and an observatory for it will cost but a few hundred dollars, thus making it accessi- bie to private individuals and our smaller col- leges and schools. : **Senatorial Avenue.” planted a tree along ‘‘Senatorial avenue,’’ which leads from Detroit out to this most famous Western farm.

From the London Times. ) A very finely executed fresco has just been discovered in that portion of Canterbury Cathedral which is known as Anselm’s Chapel, originally dedicated to St. Peter and St. Paul. The removal ofa wall, which was probably erected shortly after the great fire of 1174 with u view to strengthening the wall of the choir, disclosed the painting, which represents St. Paul in the act of detaching from his hand and shaking into the flames the Ms 2d by whieh he was bitten on the island of Melita. The- coloring of the fresco is in a wonderfnAy per- fect state of preservation and the strmeg course of bordering remarkably good. The painting is about four feet square. It was probably executed toward the close of the twelfth cen- tury. ABOUT TOWN. Jon P.

C., April 1.—No decision has yet been reached at the Navy t in regard to sending vessels to take the places of the ships lost at Apia. Secretary Tracy said last night that the matter is one which offers serious difficulties. The vessels now at Panama and at other stations which might be otherwise avaliable, cannot well be spared from their present posts of duty. The Pensa- cola, which is undergoing repairs at the Nor- folk Navy Yard, can be made ready for sea in about four months, and a like period will be required to complete the repairs and fit for sea the Adams and Iroquois now at the Mare Island Navy Yard. The Charies- ton, if accepted by the Government, can be made reddy for service probably by the first of June. Secretary Tracy fortunately ordered that the battery intended for the Yorktown should be shipped to San Francisco and placed on board the Charieston. The order was issued March 20, andthe guns will soon be on the way. THE DISASTER UNAVOIDABLE. The loss of the Trenton and the Vandalia will, it is expected, be followed by along and circumstantial report from Rear Admiral Kim- berly which will undoubtediy make clear all the details of the storm and wreck about which there is just nowa great deal of con- jecture, helped ouf by more or less interesting statements of facts supposed to have a bearing upon the present case. The general and just opinion is that tbe offleers and men of the United States vessels behaved admirably, and that the losses were unavoidable. As to the course to be pursued in case there should not be any doubt in the mind of Secretary Tracy about the behavior of the commanding officer, Col. W. B. Remey, the Judge Advocate of the Navy, talked to-day very freely: ‘‘Il knew Admiral Kimberly very well, said the Colonel, and I feel sure that he did everything in his power to protect the lives of his men and insure the safety of his ship. He is a very experienced sea- man, a man ot excellent judgment and itis not likely that he satin his cabin and neglected to take any precautions that would have occured to a man who is suchathorongh sailor. I have served on the same ship with him and know bim ne: »The usual course followed in a case of this kind is this: Admiral Kimberly will make a reporttothe Secretary giving in detail all the facts in connection with the loss of the ships andmen in the squadron of whichhe had command. That report will, in the natural order of things, be to me, and if, in my judgment, it seems to me there was any negligence or the Admiral failed to take all proper precautions, I shallrecommend tothe Secretary that a court ot inquiry be held. The functions ofa court of — ae are very similar to those ofa Grand-jury. If, after a thorough investiga- tion, the court is convinced that the Admiral was remiss or that he did not display the sea- manship which ought to have been expected of him under the circumstances, the court would recommend the Secreta of Navy that he be tried by court martial and I should have to prefer the charges, THE SECRETARY'S POWERS. It is proper for me to say that, of course, itis entirely within the discretion of the Sec- retary to decide whether he will approve the recommendation made to him and order the trial of the officer, although as a general thing such recommendation is thus actedon. Ido not believe any court will be convened. Kim- berly was the executive officer of Farragut’s ship at Mobile, and in the pictures you can see him standing by the side of the Admiral. Thats the kind of man Kimberly is. Is it true that the naval regulations do not” allow commenders to have steam up when in port?“ Under the very nature of things it must be so. It the fires were kept going all the time the coal would have been used up so quickly that our vessels would have had empty bunk- ers and then they would have been entirely at the mercy of the German gunboats. They had to husband their resources there was no coal to be had at Samoa and Australiais a good ways off. Ot course, it was within the authority of the Admiral to have steam up all the time, but such a thing would not be usual in harbor and where the exigencies did not seem to justify such a thing. ‘*The Calliope probably had steam but it is more than likely that she had come back from a cruise and her engineers had not tad time to haul her fires when the storm came on. Then it is more than likely that by chance her posi- tion was more favorable than that of either the American or German vessels, and so in- stead of being dashed to pieces on the reefs she was swept out toseaand so escaped. It is a mistake to suppose that the English ships always keep their fires banked. I have been in port along side of English ships and their fires were drawn just the same as ours. „Do you suppose that the Calliope was saved because her commander 3 det - ter seamenhip than Kimberly did?“ No, I do not. The English have better ships than we have but I don’t think there is a navy in the worid that basa finer personnel than ours. If this storm came up all ot a sudden, it was not possible for our people to have got up steam in time to get away as it takes some hours to get underway. Un- doubtedly the Britisher is a modern ship and had greater steam power than our vessels and four or five knots an hour makes a great dit- ference in the chances of a vessel riding out a gule such as this one must have been. Rear Admiral Shufeldt’s Views. New YORK, April 1.—Rear Admiral Shufeldt, lately in command of the United States squad- ron in the China seas, and hs daughter, Miss Shufeldt, arrived yesterday on the steamer Duke of Westminster. The Admiral first went to Taylor’s Hotel, Jersey. City, but soon went to No. 15 Sussex place. To a reporter who called on him last night for information as what could be done by vessels of that squadron somes the ter- rible loss in 0 wed | am now and I feel an opinion. The Secretary of the Navy w know whatis best be done. When I left the China station on Janua 9, the Swatara had not yet joined the squadron. The Palos was at Tien-Tsin in winter quarters, and taking Into consideration the news that there is trouble between the Chinese and Europeans, as shown by the outbreak at Chefoo, she is in the right place, being a roomy vessel, with small draft, which conld easily get down the Pel-Ho, a river requiring a vessel drawing not more than fourteen feet. Win regard to the Swatara, Omaha and Marion, I see no reason why they should not be sent at onceto Samoa. American interests are small in China, Russell & Co. being really the only big American house in that country. There are certainly a few ship chandlers and — „ — —— Into 41 — A on, and in my opinion greatest danger at Canton, where, doabtiess, an English gun- boat is stationed which would give all neces- sary ald, for I am net as- sistance, I must suy the ish navy kindly iderate with the - to Apia, on the retired list, difident about giving said: the! use of such referred 8828 ny * Lod, 2 Sete eh, * n * ** a, 1 — Diteh. LONDON, April 1.—Additional news of the disaster at Apia is coming in and all of the previous feports are being verified. The Ger- man steamer Eber was the frst vessel to go down. The hurricane burst upon her sud- denly and she began dragging her anchor. In an instant she became unmanageable and was driven upon the reef which surrounds the harbor. She struck broadside om board 1 waves. were below t hatches and only a few escaped. The Adler of the German fleet was the next ‘victim. She was lifted bodily by a waveof un- usual size and thrown on her m ends against the reef. The vessel was partially telescoped and her masts and rigging shattered into one inextricable tangle, which greatly hampered the movements of the struggling crew, who were making desperate efforts to escape. Some went overboard and took their chances on swimming ashore; some succeeded, while others went down before reaching a place of or: The Captain and several officers were sav THE NIPSIC. The United States steamer Nipsic had bet- ter luck, She dragged her anchors but not as rapidly asthe German vessels, tne Captain having her under contrel, to a certain extent. Seeing how matters stood, he ran her onto a low sand reef and then put out the boats. All on board were landed safely except six sea- men, who were drowned by the upsetting of the boat they were in. THE ILL-FATED VANDALIA. The United States vessel Vandalia was car- ried before the gale as ifshe were an egg shell.

The Captain was buried against a gatling gun and stunned almost to insensibility. efore he could recover he with a number of others was swept into the sea and lost. The vessel slid slowly and quietly into deep water and went down within fifty yards of the Nipsic. Several officers and men went down with the ship and many others were lost while trying to escape by swimming. THE TRENTON. By this time it had grown quite dark. The Trenton dragged and drifted until her bottom struck the wreck of the Vandalia, staving it in completely and filling the vessel half full of water, The German vessel Olga stood it out almost to the last, but just as morning broke her anchors slipped and sbe drifted along until she was run upon a sand reefand beached in a comparatively safe position.

The Zealandia, which sails for New Zealand April 6, is a mer- chant steamer of the only line. passing near the Samoan Islands and she carrries nearly one thousand tons of wheat alone for and Melbourne, owing to rtage in colonial wheat ag She will, therefore, not have much room for additional freight. It is thought, however, that the Navy Department could arrange to have the Zealandia proceed to Apia on this tri instead of making Tutuila, her port of call. This would enable her to render any urgent assistance and also procure later and more definite advices from Apia and Admiral Kim- berly. The New Zealand Government has an agent here,and such arrangement would have to be made by the United States between him and the Oceanic Steamship Co. The Shipwrecked Sailors. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 1.—The Secretary of the Navy has cabled to Auckland that the men of the wrecked naval vessels who are sent home are to go to San Francisco. Renewed instructions have been sent to San Francisco to hurry forward the preparation of the Charleston, and every effort will be made to get her guns and carriages trans- ported overland atthe earliest possible mo- ment. The guns are ready at the proving ground at Annapolis, and the carriages are about ready atthe Washington navy yard. Queen Victoria Sympathizes.

BREWERS BOTHERED, The English Syndicate Provesa Boomerang Enterprise. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. ROCHESTER, N. Y., April 1.—It is now an open secret that there is consigerable anxiety here among the holders of stock in the brew- erles who have consented to the English con- solidation, and that anxiety is voiced freely. In case the scheme should for any reason fail to finally materialize they will be in a position which, to say the least, will not be enviable. The fact bas necessarily transpired that the profits of the business have been very large when compared with the capital stock. This has already stimulated investment in brewery properties ‘fon the ground floor,’’ and should the scheme of consolidation ultimately fail there will be competition which wiil be annoying, if not disastrous. Already prejudice that exists against the manipulation of the breweries by for- elgne capital has taken root in fertile soll and is growing, and managers of brew- erles not included in the deal have not been slow in taking advantage of the sit- uation. It is confidently predicted that a failure to complete the consolidation would mean the enlargement of the breweries left out of the deal and the erection of new ones. To-day it Was learned that the Barthölomay Brewing Co. (limited), as the new English corporation is termed, was not organized under the law of this coun- try, but under that cf Great Britain. Three days ago $250,000 worth of its stock was adver- tised for sale, but as near as can be learned little of it has been taken. The fizzie of the English combination in Syracuse has not strengthened the situation here. Minnesota’s Crop Conditions, By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH.

Last month the C zens’ Committee announced that the fw bad run out and that the business men the city had refused to contri any further to the support of the local m tary companies on the ground that they b already given more money than they cor afford, and that they were not going to co tribute to the support of an institution whi. could at any moment be called up for Sta service when the State itself refused to tal any notice of it, the militia being a Sta: organization under the direction of the Stat and always at the State’s servic and it was an injustice to mak: the citizens of St. Louis pay all 0. the expenses of maintaining it. It was hoped at firstthat the State Legislature would se. in time the necessity of keeping up the militia and making an appropriation for it accord. ingly, but as time went on the gentlemen who have been devoting much of their time and energy to militia matters gave up all hope of assistance from that source. The Citizens’ Committee then came out and informed the militia companies that on the Ist day of Aprilthe Armory would be closed and the committee relieve itself of all re- sponsibilities from that time on, as it did nos feei equal to the task of maintaining it.

Coroner Frank Commences an Investigation of the Southern Hotel Suicide, Coroner Frank commenced an inquest this morning onthe remains of Asa Kellogg, who. committed suicide at the Southern Hotel, but could not conclude the case. on account of: the | absence of important witnesses. From the testimony submitted it is learned that the de- who was «a4 man about had spent a great deal of his time during the past twelve years in St. Louis, altho his headquarters as commer- cial nt of the Southern Pacific Railroad were in Oincinnati, O.

Morphine was taken atthat time, but by the efforts of Dr. Pim and myselt be was resuscitated. The de- ceased was ofavery melancholy disposition, and of late has been financially involved to a considerable extent. Kellogg committed suicide in room 249 of the Southern Hotel some time Saturday night by taking laudanum. The last time he was seen alive was when he got the key to his room desk of the hotel on Saturday night. He then asked to be called at 6o0’clock in the morning. When the boy went upto arouse him his raps on the door met with no response. Looking over the transom, he saw Kellogg lying on the bed. Manager Lewis was notified that the man was in bis room and could not be aroused. He and Officer O' Mal- ley proceeded to the room, opened the door and found Kellogg dead. An empty bottle of laudanum and the following note, which was written on a hotel envelope, were found in the room: I have fought the battle of life and lost it. Bury me. and say as little about me as possi- ble. A fool is better soon forgotten. The note was unsigned. On the dresser was a telegram, which read as follows: **OINCINNATI, March 30, 1889.

Chicago has enjoyed one of these high-priced luxuries every now and then, but the home market bas escaped even asemblance of a squeeze in wheat, corn or oats. The bulls say this ig due to the ‘‘corner rule’’ in force on the Mer- chants’ Exchange, and this move they also say doesn’t give a poor hard-working bulla chance. At the present time, however, a ‘‘corner’’ is looming up that promises to make matters very interesting for the shorts. This has been threatenin the market for some time, but di not really develop until to-day. It is May wheat that appears to be tied ys hard and fast, just as the same option isin Chicago.

The other firms are interested in the long side of May wheat, but only for customers and are not, it is believea, in any combination to squeeze the shorts.

Ad- 4 The first and best property for a man to 4 quire is a home for those who are near e dear to him and dependent upon him. ay, If his means are limited an examination ot the plans that illustrate this article, issug- — gested. Below will be found a somewhat de- tailed description of the design: Size of Structure: Width, 24 feet 6 mehes; depth, 43 feet 6 inches, including bay. brick walls; first stary, clapbeards; second story, shingles and clapboards; roof, shingles. Height of Stories: Cellar, 6 feet 6 Inches; first story, 8 feet 6 inches; second story, 8 feet. Sizeof Rooms: See floor plans. There is @ cellar under the bed-room and ball. Special Features: The exterior of this design has pleasing architectural features, a sloping roof, a veranda, a bay window and a project- ing secdnd story, supported by brackets. Cheap and tawdry effects, such as are pro- duced by ‘‘sawed’’ work, are avoided. No exterior should be overloaded with cheap ornamentation, least of all that of a small cottage. To produce a pleasing and efiective exterior. graceful proportions, enhanced by colors, should be the main dependence. But theinterior has the more meritorious features, whicn is as it should be. The ex- terior of any house is ‘mostly for ‘‘show’’— the interior is for comfort.

TE num f peo- vie is very small who appreciate the great field for American corn products that exists in Europe,’’ said Charies J. Mur- phy of New York, who is in charge of the corn display at the Paris Exposi- tion. ‘‘Exhibits at expositions nearly universally are ad- vantageous to the exhibitors, Wut I know of none that offer such opportu- nities for good as that of our corn products at Paris, if itcan only be put upon a proper footing. Not one person in a thousand realizes the groundless prejudice, founded principally upon ignorance, but also largely upon the bad methods of European treatment that prevail against corn as food all over the Continent and the British Islands. FORKIGN PREJUDICE AGAINST CORN. **A little of this cereal is used as fodderfor cows, horses being generally considered too valuable to be fed on such inferior food, but when it comes to utilizing our corn as human diet nothing but the most abject poverty and sometimes not even that will induce the transatiantic populations to use it. The Irish famine of 1848 furnishes a most striking instance ot this prejudice. The potato rot had deprived 80 percent of the people of their great food staple, and famine was carrying off hundreds every day. Aid from America was sent, and a number of ship- loads of corn were dispatched to Irish ports. But although the people were starving, they would not use either corn or cornmeal, and the distributors of the relief could scarcely in- duce hy one to accept this part of the Ameri- can cantribution. To people who are accus- tomed to regard corn bread and the various forms of corn meal, as well as corn on the ear, as something of a luxury, this feeling is inexplicable, but the same feeling to-day prevalis over the whole of Europe. THE AMERICAN EXPORT TRADE. ** While 25 per cent at least of the wheat crop is exportea, not quite 4 per cent of the corn crop found its way across the ocean last year, andinthe year Germany, where cheap food is most important, took only 408 barrels of cornmeal and 2,500,000 bushels of corn, while | France im ported not quite 2,000,000 bushels and but 60 barrels of meal. This in face of the fact that in Germany a laboring man is most fortunate if be sees wheat bread once a week, and fresh meat once in two months, and yet they will not take our corn. One reason is that the milis used for grinding it are of the rudest descrip- tion and furnish an article little better than the rye flour which forms the staple article of diet of the Germans and French. The same is trne in alesser degree of the English, and in a greater degree of the Irish, among whom want is practically perennial. THE ANNUAL CORN PRODUCT. „While this state of affairs exists on the other side of the ocean, the seven corn States of this country, Ohio, IIinois, Indiana, Kansas, Missour!, Nebraska and lowa, produced last year 1,281,920,850 bushels of corn, on an acre- age of 34,420,191. This includes only the States named, much corn being raised in other localities. In this list Missouri stands third, both in acreage and product, having 6,447,168 acres in corn, and producing 210,822, 304 bushels. The average price paid last year was very low, averaging 23 cents a bushel, which made the commercial value of the crop $73,974,891, more than the total net earnings of the national banks. But sosmallwas the mar- gin of profit to the farmer, on account off the size of the crop, that many have turned their corniands into pastures, and instances are not wanting in which the corn has been used as fu el. To makea market for this great crop is the object of the exhivit which we are striving to make at Paris. We wishto erecta fine — 9 covered entirely with corn, in Which we willbake bread and cakes, make mush and in fact exhibit ali the food porperties of corn. The articles 2 will be distributed free of arge, and hourly lectures will be delivered 1 the different preparations of this cereal.] To properly do thig we need money, and must look to the corn States tosupply it, at least in part. New York City has su scribed $5,000, and I am now endeavoring to obtain contributions in the West. The St. Louis Merchants’ Exchange will, I believe, do more than its share, as it always does. If we are successful, I feel sure that within three years from a quarter to a third of our corn ah will be exported, and that the price to the farmer wili be raised at least 5 cents a bushel.’’ WEDDING PRESENTS.

WHITE CAPS IN MISSOURI, Excitement at Knoblick and Syenite Over Threats Against Foreign-Born Citizens. By Telegraph to the PO8T-DISPATCH. FARMINGTON, Mo., April 1.—The neighbor- ing towns of Knoblick and Syenite are excited over the threats of a self-styled band of White Caps who warned all Scotch and foreign- born workmen to leave the quarries of the Syenite Granite Co. Anonymous letters have been written to several of the workmen, threatening them with death, and notices have been posted warning all to leave the quarries before April 12.
