Fpecial Cablegram to the Poat-Diepatch. LONDON, July 12.—The Pali Mall Gazette gives prominence to an iuterview with Rev. Dr. Howley,a Catholic Newfoundlander,now here, weo warns England of the danger of that col- ony seeking annexation to the United States as the only way of obtaining redress against French interference with the fisheries. He says the United States feed Newfoundland and do most of its trade and, therefore, the nat- ural tendency is to anncxation. Besides, the colony is proſoundly impressed with the res- olute action of the United States in dealing with the Germany in the Samoan affair, con- trasted with England’s reluctance to actively support Newfoundland against France. In fact, he says, John Bull allows his nose to be tweaked with impunity, but Brother Jona- than would not allow France to pluck his beard. The Pall Mall Gazetie thinks the situa- tion very serious, and notes the absurdity of Salisbury moving heaven and earth to prevent the imaginary danger of losing Ireland, while not moving a little finger to save the really much more important Island of Newfound- land. There was another curious contrast in the House of Lords yesterday, which agreed, without a division, to a bill granting a home rule constitution, to the colony of Western Australia. The Tories will not hear of giving home rule to small Ireland, but without mur- mur hand over the Indian Territory, almost as big as Europe, to forty thousand ex-con- yicts settled on its border—that is, they swal- low the Australian camel and strain at the Irish gnet. W. M. STEAD, Editor Pall Mali Guzette. Envgi«wnd. LONDON, July 12.— Upon the resumption of the sitting ofthe Parnell Commission to-day Sir Charies Russell, of counsel for the Parnell- ites, asked Mr. Soames, tbe solicitor for the Times, to produce a list of the pay- ments he bad made to witnesses in benalt of the Times and all the communications that had passed between himself and the Times’ agents in Aweérica and Ireland. Attorney-Generai Webster declined to allow Mr. Soawes to produce the commun!- cations. Mr. Soames was then recalled. He testified that he bad not made outa liet of the payments made to the witnesses. Hecould not tell when he had first corre- sponded with Le Caron. There was no definite arrangement as to how wit- ness should pay him. Already several pay- ments had been made to him, Mr. Macdonald, manager of the Times, said it was understood that Le Caron would be provided for. He had lost his employment in the Government ser- vice. Aslong as it was needed, he wasto re- ceive assistance. PIGGOTT’S WORK AND PAY. Mr. Houston, Secretary of the Loyal and Patriotic Union, was then recalled and re- exumined. He testified that Lord Stall- bridge first mentioned Piggott to bim as a useful witness. The articies on ‘‘Parnellism and Crime, pubiished by the Zimes were an elaborate reprint of ‘‘Parnellisam Unmasked,’’ which was compiled by Piggott and fur which witness paid £60, Witaess stated that he was willing to place the books ot tbe Loyal and Patriotic Union before the court, but he objected to their being examined by ts political op- poneuts. Witness borrowed £400 from Lord Stallbridge and Sir Roiand Bleunerhasset and £850 from Dr. Maguire to buy the letters printed by the Times. Mr. Houston produced u voucher for £101 paid to Kugene Davis. Sir Charles Kussell: Don't you believe that voucher is in Piggott’s handwriting?’’ Witness: ‘‘ihey write similarly. I don’t believe it is in Piggott’s handwriting.’’ Under repeated questions the witness per- sisted that it was Davis’ voucher, though ob- tained through Piggott. Sir Charles Russell demanded the production of tie books of the Loyal and Patriotic Union. He said he desired to prove that the whole ind:ctment contained In ‘*Parnellism and Crime“ pro- | ceeded from the Union. Piggott had been used by a powerful political organization to concoct the plan. DECIDED AGAINST THE PARNELLITES. | Presiding Justice Hannen: This relates to | charges against persons not before us. Mr. Asquith, also of Mr. Parnell’s counsel, | submitted that the court had to inquire into the origin and growth of the Charges against the Parnellites. The Union’s books would disclose how l’igyott set to work to supple- ment ‘‘Parnellism Unmasked’’ en- larged articles entitled ‘*Parnellism and Crime,’’ including the letters the Times had printed. Attorney-General Webster con- tended that the books were wanted in order to give the Pornellitee free range upon other political matters. The court decided against the application for the production of the books. Sir Charles. Russell then intimated that he had received written instructions from Mr. Parnell regarding the further conduct of the case which required him to ask for an oppor- tunity to consider his position. Messrs. Par- nell, Davitt and Lewis, and Sir Charles Russell hereupon withdrew from the court-room,. The commission adjourned until Tuesday. MR. LEWIS DENIAL. Mr. Geo. Lewis, solicitor for Mr. Parnell, in an interview to-day, professed ignorance of any intention of Mr. Parnellto withdraw his case from before the special commission. SAILORS’ STRIKE COLLAPSED.

The Peculiar Case of a Kailroad Man—A Bad Smash-Up. Ry Telegraph to the Post-Dispratcnr. DENISON, Tex., July 12.—One of the most peculiar cases in the annals of surgery is here in Denison, and but few similar cases have been recorded in the history of the profes- sion, Wednesday evening in attempting to set a brake on a flat car Conductor J. F. Wood- ard was thrown between the moving cars. He fell between the rails and was dragged along fully fifty feet ere the train slackened its momemtum. Woodard was dragged from under the cars more dead thanalive. An ez! amination by the local pbysician at St. Joe, where the accident occured, only revealed a few abrasions of the skin on the shotlders and face. The wounded man was paralyzed for a short time, but recuperated in a few moments and was able to converse. Later he was brought to Denison and ro- moved to his residence and Dr. A. W. Acheson, the physician of the M., K. 4 T. Rall way, was called in. A thorough diagno- sis of the case developed the fact that Wood- ward’s neck was broken by the fall, yet, much to the surprise of the able doctor, stands a fair chance to recover. The vertebra hinging at the base of the skull is dislocated. and the head can almost beturned entirely around. Apparently the spinal cord is uninjured, but notwithstandin that fact, the disiocation isof a charactor tha should aslight pressure be brought to bear upon thespinal cord death must inevitably ensue, and precautionary measures have been taken in that respect, and Woodard will prob- ably recover. A Bad Smash-Up. PATERSON, N. J., July 12.—Nine freight cars were side-tracked by a switch engine about 8 o’clock this morning half a mile above the Erie depot, and were left without the brakes being set. An hour later they started down tne Erade, jumped! several switches, and finally crashed into the same freight engine. The pilot and tendér of the engine were smashed and three passenger coaches and two freight cars were demolished. Fireman Jo- seph Gordon of Jersey City was caucht de- tween the tender and fire-box and had one of his legs burned toacrisp. He was removed to St. Joseph’s Hospital, where he died at 9 o’clock this morning. Engineer Davis 68 caped uninjured. Theend of the depot was stove in and the night operator had a narrow escape. Found on the Track. Ry Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. EDWARDSVILLE, III., July 12.—The body of James Caldwell, a painter, about 40 years of age, living in this city, was found by a track watchman on the Wabash Railway track, just west of Carpenter, astation six miles east of this place, at 2 o’clock this morning. He was seen by a fellow workman at 6 last night and had, at that time, nearty finished a job of painting at Carpenter, where he had been ull week, and intended to return home on this morning’s train. It is supposed he concluded to walk home inthe night. He was evidently struck by atrain going in an opposite <direc- tion, as the body was dragged some distance northward. TheCoroner was notified and an inquest was held. Deceased leaves a wife and fuur children. Killed in a Saw Mill. Ey Telegraph to the Post-DIsPpaTca. LITTLE Rock, Ark., July 12.—A special from Brinkly says that Thomas Simms and Jacob Cheek, colored, were killed at the Brinkley car-works, Tlie men were feeding a plank- machine when a board broke and,striking the saw, was dashed violently backward ' hitting them on the head, causing instant death. A Fatal Collapse. MOLINE, III., July 12.—Last evening an old building, formerly a brewery, while being torn down suddenly collapsed, and one ofthe workmen, Henry Hagger, was caught by fall- ing timbers and killed. Four others were se- verely injured. TROUBLE AT HOMESTEAD. Strikers Surround and Threaten to Mok a Sheriff's Posse. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 12.—One hundred Pin kerton men, armed with Springfield rifles, ar- rived here this morning from Philadelphia and were taken tothe Homestead Bessemer Steel Works of Carnegie, Phipps & Co., at Homestead, Pa. They will be placed about the mill property to protect it and the workmen from the strikers. The Sheriff will also swear in a posse of 100 depu- ties lor the same purpose. The struggle promises to be the most bitter in the history of strikes and lockouts in this section. Both sides are determined anda long fight is an- ticipated. Everything was quiet about the works this morning. No more men have ar- rined and the plant is still silent. At noon 125 deputies, under ex-Sberiff Gray, arrived on atrain at Homestead. ‘hey were immediately surrounded by strikers tothe number of nearly a thousand and requested to return to the city. The depaties refused to do so and the crowd would not allow them to en- ter the mill. At 1:30 o’clock they were still surrounded by a mob, but no outbreak had occurred. The excitement is intense. Indianapolis ttonecutiers Successful, INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 12.—After fifteen months of contention with members of the union the employers of Indianapolis stone- cutters have acceded to the demand for the revognition of eight hours as a day’s work. The persistent agitation by the union brought the contractors to terms, and by the axree- ment under which the strike is ended none but mewbers of the union will be employed. IN THK PATH OF STEAMERBS, Bark Crusader Encounters Two Tee- bergs and Wreckage. New Tonk, July 12.—The bark Crusader ar- rived from London this morning and reports vast quantities of ice on the voyage. On June 24, in latitude 46.33 north and longitude 46.00 west, the vessel came within a cable's length of being wrecked by an iceberg. The weather was thick and foggy at the time, and the vessel was close on the berg when it was discovered, On thesame day, in latitade 45.30 and longitude 46.40, the ship passed two larger icebergs. One was a mile in length and the other three-quarters of a mile in length and from forty to fifty feet high. A quantity of wreckage was assed by the Crusader Gays ater, which may have been the result of the collision of a vessel with one of the bergs. The wreckage consisted of large quantities of white timber and shbip’s A- tures. The icebergs are directiy in the path of transatiantic steamers. WHERE I5 STEVE DORSEY?

The Nevada Bank of San Francisco es a = The ‘A ORUEL STEPFATHER. — — HE CAUSES THE INCARCERATION OF TWO ‘YOUNG LOVERS IN THE HOLDOVER. Charles Schwarts and Miss Carrie Hurt From Columbas, O., Married in the Presence of the Chief of They Tell Their Story and Go on Their Way the instigation of the Columbus authorities, who early on yestere day afternoon tele- graphed instructions to Chief Huebler. The lovers give the names of Charlies Schwarts, aged 21 years, and Car- rie Hurt, aged 18 yeurs, and converse freely in w & regard to thelr un- ' — ani pleasant situation, The arrest was made at 7:30 o’ clock last night, When the Vandalia train pulled into the Relay ee Depot in East St. Louis Sergt. Mun- dinger of the Union Depot force stepped on board. In the fires car entered he found the lovers. All una- wares of impending danger they sat com-~- placently in aforward seat, absorbed in each other’s charms and lost tothe world. A tap on the shoulder brought the young man to hig senses and his predicament soon de- came apparent. The party soon arrived at the Four Courts, where, notwithstanding the fact that both of the fugitives strenuously denied any wrong, Schwartz was placed in a cell in the hold-over while the young lady was turned over to the care of Matron Harris. The tele- gram gave no particulars as to the offerte charged and the st. Louis police could but do their duty. A message was at once sent to the Chief of the Columbus police, informing him of the arrest and asking ter instructions. THE LOVERS are youthful in appearance. The young lady, it will be noticed, gave her name as Carrie Hunt. The telegram gave it as Carrie Bendig, ‘When questioned in regard to the circum- stance the young lady said. „My right name is Carrie Hurt. Bendig is the name of my stepfather, and it is he who las instituted this persecution, I call it persecution in preference to prosecu- tion, for he knuws he has no control over my actions. My mother tells me that 1 am 19 years old, but my step-father insists that I was but 17 in January last. Even if he takes me back home and proves that I am nos yet of age, it will do bim no good in the least as I sha | marry Mr. Schwarts intheend. My mother has no objection to our marriage and it is a shame that my step- father should interfere.’’ Miss Hurt’s ap- pearance is as decided asherspeech. Slender of form and of a decided brunette type, her large gray eyes speak volumes in themselves and. determination flashes forth at every word. SCHWARTZ, n beardless young fellow, bas the appearance ofa mechanic and such he acknowledged as his profession. ‘‘1 first met Mies Hurt in sau- Diego, Cal, he said, over two years ago, I was railroading at that time and met Bendig, the stepfather, through a business trans- action. He was then in communica- tion with some Columbus, 0. parties relative to the purchase 0 some milling machinery and finally induced me to buy a half interest and gointoa part- nership with him. We then went to Columbus and I boarded with him. An attachment sprang up Detween Miss Hurtand myself and over six months ago | obtained consent of her mother to our marriage. Bendig knew of this but never entered an objection in one way or another. not speak to him about the matter as I deemed the mother’s consent sufficient. Our business did not pay very well, and a month ago I rented my interest and took about $1,500 in mortzages. I then decided to go to El Paso, Tex., and goto railroading again. 1 told Beedig about it, and then Miss Hurt and £ arranged for her to go with me, We were a littie afraid that the step-father would object, and left without saying anything to anybody about our plans. I! had over $250 in money and was able to support a wife. We intended to stop in St. Louis one day in order to give Miss Hars time to get some dresses and intended to be married upon our arrival in EI Paso, where 1 have some friends. We have done nothin wrong and intended nothing wrong,so Idon see what can be done to us. The story was told ina plain, straight-for- ward Manner, and carried conviction to the listener. THE STEPFATHER RELENTS. Shortly after noon a telegram was received from Columbus which placed the matter in @ different light. From a cold, unfeelins wretch anxious to destroy the happiness of two h the stepfather is resolved into a cautio parent, anxious for the welfare of the enild. The message read as follows: CoL_umBos, O., July 12. To Anton Huebler, Chief ef Police: Papers cannot be secured to extradite Schwartz. Father and mother consent te their marriage. Have them married in your presence and then release them. If nos (married) bold girl. Answer. FE. Mournruyr, Superintendent of Police. THK WEDDING. Accordingly at 12:30 p. m.

Both of them seemed determined to have the out in a square geutiemanly manner, and they did 80.

I never saw A man use better judgment. Sullivan picked up some fiesh after his arrival at New Orleans, and would easily have taken off ten pounds with- out impairing his condition any, yet he ‘showed wonderful strength and endurance. He walked to his corner every time, while Kilrain was carried there. The latter is as game as a pebble though, and, as Sullivan stated, punished him worse than he wes ever punished before in his life. It was evident to me that after the first few rounds he eaw that the only way for him to make any showing against Sul- livan was by adopting Mitchell’s tactics of re- treating and falling. The erowd hissed bim and called hima cur for retreating, but he Was using very good jndement aud his tactics were lexitimate. Sullivan would ask him if he would stand and fight him, but Kilrain would reply that if he wanted himto come and get him, Several times Sullivan asked the referee if he couldn't make Kilrain fight him, but of course the referee was powerless to act. When the crowd would call Kilrain a cur, the big fellow would wave his hauds to them to stop as much as much as to say, I want bim to fight! don’t stop bim!“ A fairer fighter than Sullivan never lived. In the break- aways he would gently push Kilrain out at full arm’s length and make no attempt to hit him until they were separated. nce 3 t did not anger the big fellow a bit and he merely err and clapped his ands a saying! ‘That’s 004d; that’s and ridiculing Uran in that manner. Killrain§ struck him foul a number of times, hitting him below the belt, but the referee would listen to no claims of foul. He ls a square man and was ’ @etermined that the fight should be won on its merits regardiess of technicalities. If he had not,been that way and Kilrain had stood right nd fought instead of adopting Mitchell’s tactics we should all have beensent home after seeing a battle of about four rounds instead of a good long fight. The story that Sullivan agreed to Mitcne!l to make a present to Kil- rain to throw up the fight-is not correct. The instant Mitchell made the proposition Charley Jobnson yelled out so as to be heard three blocks away, ‘No, no; we will not give a cent. Sullivan is fighting for my money and we want this battle fought toafinish.’ Why, no one had any time to say they would make Kilrain a present. if Sullivan had agreed to Those people would declare that it was a compromise and he was as anxious to quit as their man was, and this on top of his draw with Mitchell would have ruined him. Donovan, who wanted to rounds Q was a wrangle, Mitchell wanting the fight.to goon, and Sullivan proceeded to clear the Ying. He did not want to 2 He wanted to kill Kilrain. Johnson, whois an excitabie fellow, kept crying out: We have been try- ing for years to get you into a twenty-four foot ring, and now that we have you there we will kill and other such _re- marks during fight, all directed at Kfilrain. I think Kilrain is a ut üghter, and if he ever meets anybody ut Sullivan I will back him with a few do!- lars; His blows seemed to lack force, how- ever, though he is aspiendidsparrer, wrestler and a inthe ring. Sullivan’s blows had a telling effect on Kilrain, while Kilrain’s Sullivan. generally laughed when hit. smiled good-naturedly at and had a sickly smile even atthe finish, but I tell = it was very sickly. Sullivan just played orhisribson the left side and did terribie damage there. He made no rushes and made no attempt to knock out Kilrain by a blew back of the eur as was expected. In the first round Kilrain surprised everybody by open- ing right up on Sullivan. He struck at him, they clinched and in an instant be had the big fellow on his back. It was as clean and pretty a fall as you ever saw. Sullivan got up and laughed good-naturedly, like a big school boy.

By a Writ of Habeas Corpus He is Taken From the Custody of Nashville Police. NASHVILLE, Teun., July 12.—When Sullivan and his backer, Johnson, were lodged in jail bere yesterday lawyers were at once en- gaged and a writ of habeas corpus applied for before Judge McAllister of the Circuit Court. The attorneys engaged by Sullivan and Johnson were W. H. Washington, W. G. Brien, A. G. Caldwell and v. L. Dodd, tour of the best known barristers in Nashville. Whiie the proceedings were going on Sullivan received a number of teleg s from friends in New York offering aid, and he opened them and read them. The city om. cers and State of Mississippi were represented by Col. A. S. Colyar, Judge Abram Denmoss and City-Attorney Taylor. The petition for the writ was to tne effect that the arrests had been made without any legal process, and that the prisoners were held by no authority. The prisoners had committed no _ offense against the laws of Tennessee, nor & felon in any other State. Judge McAllister, after listening to the arguments on both sides, granted the writ, stating that to bold Sullivan longer would be a most arbi- Trary act on the partof the court; that the officers had arrested him without process of law, and that misdemeanors in Mississippi were pot extraditable offenses by the rulings of Tennessee courts and by precedents of Gov. Taylor. Hetherefore ordered the fight- er's immediate release The decision was received with loud ap- plause by those in the court room. Sullivan was made a hero of, and the hotel where he stopped wasthronged by thousands anxious to see the great fighter before he departed on the night train. Sullivan Journeying North. EVANSVILLE, Ind., July 12.—John L.

Coluu nus, O., July 12.—Kilrain and his party, consisting of Charley Mitchell, Pony Moore and Johnny Murphy arrived in Colum- bus at5:20 o’clock last evening and went to Bissel’s Hotel. They were followed by a large crowd. Mitchell registered the party under assumed names. Arriving at bis room Kilrain took a bath and changed his lineu. He was assisted in taking off and pull- ing on his clothes by his friends. His body was aimostly completely covered with bruises, and it was with the greatest difficulty that he could get on anew undershirt which he had purchased. Soon after the arrival of the party Sheriff Smith began making preparations to arrest them. Word was sent to Mitchell of the Sheriff's intentions. He sent Johnny Murphy aut to get a hack, and when it arrived the fighters sneaked out by the back way, and entering the carriage were driven away. Persons who followed the carriage say that itwent towards Shelbyville and it is sur- mised that it is the intention of the puyllists to strike the Fig Four Railroad there. When Sheriff Smith learned of the escape of the fighters he telegraphed to Robert Lowry, Gov- ernor of Mississippi, asking if there was any reward offered for the arrest ofthe party. He received the following reply: JACKSON, Miss., July II.—I will pay $500 reward fon the arrest of Kilrain and his party —Charley Mitchelland Pony Moore—delivered to the Sheriff here. Answer if arrested. **ROBERT LOWRY, Governor. A large posse was organized, with Sheriff Smith at its head, and has started in pursuit. The posse is prepared for any resistance that may be offered.

CHICAGO, July 12.—An Associated Press re- porter on his return from New Orleans, yes- terday afternoon, stopped over at Louisville. There he learned of Sullivan’s arrest at Nash- ville, and at once determined to wait until the evening train and catch some of the Sualli- van party that escaped the officers of Tennes- see at Nashville. While watching at one of the depots he caught ‘‘Parson’’ Davies, the well-known sporting manager of Chicago, who had in charge Muldoon and Cleary, just asthey were about to board a Monon train for Chicago. There was no time left for in- terviews and tho T. tape decided to accom- pany the party to Chicago. Upon arriving at the outskirts of the city this morning, the Muldoon party left the train and boarded an outgoing train for the East to escape any chance of arrest. In an interview with Muldoon he described his escape at Nashville as follows: was sitting with Sullivan when the officers entered the car. Tney were about to place me under arrest when 1 said to them: What do you mean? Iam no prize fighter; do Iiook like one? Llama gentleman and it is your duty to protect me and not to offer me an insult.’ Ihey at once abandoned me and devoted their efforts to securing the big fel- low and Johnson, and here! am, a little dis- figured from hard work, but still in the ring. Muidcon was asked about the condition of Kilrain. He said that Kilrain was overtrained and was not carefully handled at New Orleans fora day or two before the fight. Had he been properly managed Sullivan would have bad a more severe battle. On the other hand, Sullivan was put into the ring a little heavy, but in fine condition. Muidoon says he told Sullivan that he expected he would lose seven ounds during the fight. After the mill bad en concluded Sullivan weighed six anda halt pounds less than when he entered the ring. Muldoon told John that he had better do something to get rid of that extra haif pound. Muidoon further stated that he was perfectly satisfied with the result of the fight and unlike the majority of the sportin rn believed that the battle woul be a ong one; that he had in- structed Sullivan to fight slowly and that he would be satisfied if he won in three hours’ Oghting. He also said that Kilrain’s retreat ne tactics were at the advice of Charley Mitchell, who, forsome reason, wanted him to pursue his (Mitchell’s) methods in the ring. In an interview with Parson Davies the Parson said that during the excitement and rush for the train the correspondents were in erroras to wae being left alone in the ring after ulm through and him in a bug driven by Col. Mien the owner of the plantation and battleground. Kilrain was then driven rap- idiy toa car rail com- at the sta and on board, .

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 12.—Owing to the absence from Wasbington of Secretary Proctor the order for the consolidation of sev- eral divisions of the War Department will not be officially promulgated until the last of the week. The purpose and scope of the order are pretty well understood by the officials and clerks who will be affected and among whom there is considerable grumbling. Some of them appear tothink that the War Depart- ment will goto the ‘‘demnition bow-wows’’ ifthe order is enforced, while others forsee that the ultimate effect of it probably will be to reduce the number of clerks now employed under the office upon the official records. The objects of the order are three fold: First, to bring upto date the work in the Adjutant Generai’s office, some of which is six months or morejin arrears; second, to sim- plify and systematize certuin branches of work, and, third, to preserve such important Original records of the voluntary army, as muster rolls, hospital registers, etc. Some years ago when Assistant-Surgeon Ainsworth ofthearmy was assigned to duty, in charge ofthe medical hospital and other medical records of the Surgeon General’s office, he found themin a dilapidated condition, some of them, in fact, by long use and constant handling, actually falling to pieces. The im- portance, notto say necessity, of preserving these records will be better appreciat- ed when it is understood that they contain the official evidence, not otherwise attainable in the thousands of cases, to establish, modify or reject the dlaims of thousands of applicants for pen- sions. Dr. Ainsworth at once began the prepa. ration of an alphabetical index-catalogue of these records, setting forth the medical history of every officer and soldier whose names were borne thereon. As this catalogue grew the searches were easier as well as more thorough, and the orignal records were no longer sub- jected to constant thumbing and careless handling. Thisindex catalogue will be com- pleted by the end of the current year. AI- ready, in its incomplete condition, it bas enabled the clerks to not only bring up to date work which was six months or more in arrears, when it was begun, but to answer satisfactorily about 75 per cent of the inquiries from the Pension Bureau ageinst about 50 per cent underthe practice formerly in vogue. It is now proposed to apply the Same system to tbe records of the volunteer service in the Adjutant-General’s office. Of course, this is a work of much greater magni- tude, but when completed it will be practica- ble to ascertain in less time than now required, the military bistory of any officer or soldier whose name is borne on any muster roll, and will be of incalculable value in the investiga- tion and speedy adjudication, not only for pensigns, but also for back pay, bounty, service, etc. It will also prevent the destruc- tion by constant handling of muster rolis and other original records of the volunteer army which sbould be carefully preserved as long as the government shall endure, Appointments by the President.

Outlines of the Scheme—The Circular Sent to All Railroad Managers — The Freight-Rate War Still On—New Cuts—A Road to Be Sold— The Wabash East Mort- gage. CHrCAGO, III., July 12.—The following letter is published here. It is said to have been sent to railroad managers generally: NEw YORK, July 8. Mr DEAR Sir—As the interstate commerce bill has abolished the pooling arrangements heretofore existing bétween the trunk and other pool lines, the necessity for some sys- tem of regulating and controlling the traffic appears to be as great, if not greater, than ever before, and so anew plan must at an early date be devised therefor. Such a plan, to be effective, should cover the following points: 1. Maintain all the equities between the railway companies themselves and also be- tween their respectiye stockholders’ inter- ests. 2. Continue the legal and all other relations of the respective railway’ companies to the United States and the several States under which they are organized as at present. 8. Secure unity of interest upon an abso- lutely suitable basis in the ownership, opera- Mon and earnings of ail the lines. This being accomplished the weak elements of all pooling arrangements and a temptation to the compahies to cut under or destroy the same willhave been removed and the power of large shippers to play off one line as against the other will be reduced to the minimum if not wholly destroyed. A GREAT RAILROAD TRUST. The above and many other desirable points which can readily occur to you, can, in my judgment, be readily secured and secured only by 1 at least a 222 of the shares of each of the competing Eastern trunk lines, thecoal lines, the Southwestern and Northwestern lines andthe Transcontinental lines and their respective affiliated companies, arranged by territorial groups, in trusts sim- ilar in many respects to the Standard Oil and other such trusts. For some time past I have given much thought to the conduct of such organizations, and I am satisfied that trusts, constituted as above outlined, would enablethe business of the respective territorial groups to be regu- lated and controlled in the best interest of the proprietors and without arousing any greater restrictive intervention on the part of the na- tional or State governments than exists at present, If such a trust should be organized for the control of the business ot any group of lines, it would naturally result in the establishment of similar trusts controlling the other territo- rial groups. These could finally be worked sep arately or in one trust, as experience and policy might dictate. This proposition covers so much ground that at the start you will naturally be disposed to throw it aside, but the details can be arranged with profit and advantage to all concerned and without much difficulty, and this matter will have to be dealt with in some way before long. I desire that your mind should be working upon the lines above suggested. JOHN J. MCCOOK, The Rate War.

Bailey of No. 3534 Coz- zens avenue was walking on the south side of Franklin avenue near Fourth streetin com- pany with a lady friend, about 11:300’clock this morning, her pocketebook was snatched from her hand by a well-dressed young man. The thief and a companion darted into the alley between Fourth street and Broadway, running in the direction of Morgan street. Mrs. Bailey screamed and attracted the atten- tion of passers-by, several of whom pursued the fleeing thieves through the alley and gained rapidly upon them. When near Morgan street one of the thieves drew a re- volver on his pursuers, which had the effect of frightening some of them. The men emerged from the alley on Morgan street when they ran eastward to Fourth street, thence north to Franklin avenue, where they turned eastward und ran around a small square between Third and Fourth streets and Franklin avenue. When near the junction of Third and Fourth streets they were observed by Policeman Me- Gulre, who saw anumber of persons follow- ing at a distance,and be gave chase also. Upon seeing the policeman the tbieves took a more leisurely pace and slunk into the store of the Meyer Manufacturing Co. on the west side of Fourth street, between Franklin avenue and Wash street. The officer followed them into the store, where he ar- rested both parties, and calling the patrol wagon had them removed to the station. While the party were waiting for the wagon Mrs. Bailey came up and a minute later Martin Steppe approached and handed to Police- man McGuire the lady’s poeketbook, which hefound on the sidewalk on Fourth street south of Franklin avenue. At the stationthe men gave the names of James Crowley and William Harney. These names are supposed to be fictitious. Crowley gave his age as 30 years, although he does not appear to be that old. He said that he came to the city yesterday from Michigan. He is rather a fine looking fellow, but displays considerable nerve, and takes the arrest very coolly. The revolver which he drew onthe crowd that followed him was found in one of his pockets. His partner, Harney, was considerably agi- tated over the arrest, but maintained silence regarding bis past history and movements. He claims to be a stranger in the He had several restaurant in his rockets, most of which were from the Grand Restaurant at Seventh and St. Charles streets. He gave his age as 21 years. He is of medium size rather sparely built, sandy complection, and wears a light mustache. The pocketbook contained $20 in bills and some change. It was scribed and identified +: y Regarding the robbery Mrs, Balfey said that she and ber friend had been to the Franklin Bank at Fourth and Morgan streets. Upon coming out of the bank she observed two men standing on the sidewalk who appeared to be watching herself and friend, but she paid no particular attention to them. From the Franklin Bank,’’ said Mrs. Bailey we went to the Pacific Express office at Fourth and St. Charles streets. We remained there but a short time and went northward on Fourth street which we followed to Franklin avenue, where we turned west- ward intending to take the car for home at Broadway. We had just reached the alley when my pocketbook was snatched and upon turning around I saw the men running off and I am almost positive that they were the same men who were standing in front of the bank when we came out. I screamed aud pursued, but several persons were ahead of me. ISaw the thief stop and draw arevolbver on the crowd.’’ OUR own make of suits of light worsteds are very desirable for the season, and especially for those who Intend to takea railroad journey in the hot, dusty weather.

The house it seems was bargained for by the woman, but when the fact became generally known that the dusky hued in- aividual seen about the place quite frequently was her husband the good people of that section became greatly incensed and vowed vengeance on intruders unless they folded their tents and decam ped. and his fair bride would such thing, and very indignantly refused to consider any proposition which necessitated a change of residence, claiming that he had as much right to reside where he leased as any other citizen of the country. t night about 12 o’clock a party of young men marched to the house of the obnoxious couple and demanded of them an immediate change of abode ands that unless their wisbes were cowplied with the building would be razed and the inmates treated to an involuntary but effective bath. The woman screamed and begged the party to withdraw but Edwards remained cool and determined to hold the fort. Ina few moments a perfect shower of dead cats, tin cans and barre! hoops rained against the windows and doors of the place until the inmates were willing to make concessions.

Mr. Stookey could not be convinced that the former figure was too high, and the committee was equaliy obstinate in holding that So was atoply sufficient. The matter stands in statu quo, but the Council! which meets on Monday next, will settle tue Aimeulty. A majority of the committee ure in favor of going back to the old system of a cistern supply and contend that they will never pay such an exorbitant price, while the Water company sconts such an idea and holds that the city must accept its figures.

Some of the other persons under bond are holding insignificant places ia the public offices but have not taken promi- nent parts in politics. ‘ The cases have all been set for Sept@mber 3, but it is probable that when they as called some delay will be caused by the filing of de- murrers to the form of the indictments. Ford Smith wil/ appear for his fellow Republican Central Committeemen who have been in- dicted. The original indictments in these cases were passed upon by the court and pro- nounced legal, but since then the form has been changed to facilitate the presentation of the proof. Abolishing a Soft Berth. | City Marshal Martin Neiser will probably lose his chief Meutenant before his fight with Marshal-elect Emile Thomas is finally de- cided. When Nelser was elected four years ago he installed Barney Thorman, the Beventh Ward Committeeman, as keeper of the dog pound. For years this has been one of the good things at the dis- — of the Marshal. An appropriation has een made annually of $6,000 for catching and killing unlicensed dogs. Two years ago an at- tempt was madeto reduce the appropriation. The Comptroller was called on, and admitted that he had no control over the expenditure of the money, and aside from the occasional disgusting street spectacles ofa alf dozen hoodlums riding about the city in a wagon he had no evidence of any service whatever rendered the city for the money ap- propeiated. Cn this information the louse Com mittee on Ways and Means cut down the appropriation to one-balfthe regular amount. The next day Barney Thorman called on the committeemen and the old figure was restored. This year itis doubtful who will get the benefits of the appropriation and when the committee re- commended that only $3,000 be allowed for the dog killing branch of the city government, no objection was made, Last night Delegate fiegmund improved upon the action of the committee by inducing the House of Delegates to cut the appropriation to $1,000 a year. Awniting His Honor’s Return. The return of Mayor Noonan is looked for- ward to by the City Hall clerks with some anxiety. It is expected that a number of Changes will be made bythe list of August. Comptroller Stevenson, who is still working with the office force which Comptroller Campbell appointed, has a list of some changes which he proposes to wake. Acting Mayor Walbridge, to whom the list was presented some days ago, asked thut it be submitted to the permanent incum- benton hisreturn. The Recorder of Deeds vill, under the provisions of thenew or- Cinance, submit to Mayor Noonan a full list of his appointment for approval. It is not Probable that the Mayor will disapprove the appointment of ‘any of the clerks or em- pores in these offices unless charges are mace against the applicants personally. 1 5 Mayor will probably return early next ‘Cex, CHEAP GAS.

The abnormal sultriness of yesterday after- noon was relieved along the western border of the city by a heavy fall ot rain. To-day there were strong indications of rain after noon after three hours of ramollescent sgul- triness. When the rain threatened the atmosphere began to cool, and lite again became attractive. There were no sunstrokes to-day, although they might have been expected. This summer in St. Louis has been unusual as far as the num- ber of sunstrokes is concerned, there having been only One very mild case brought to the notice of the city physicians. That one oc- curred over a month ago and was due more to the unhealthy condition of the victim than to the heat. Dispensary Physiolan Warrne Priest can give but one good reuson for this rather peculiar condition of affairs, and that is the general sprinkling of the pub- lic streets. He said to-day: ‘‘I think that the public sprinkling bas done very much to pre vent the occurrence of sunstrokes. The streets being aiways well dampened with good water, the atmosphere is cooled by evaporation. This is especially noticeable on the granjte streets, which are wet most often. Sumetimes you can 55 down one of the macadam or dirt streets to the intersection of a granite street and there feel the difference in the tempera- ture of the air. The sprinkling prevents the overheating of the pavements, and that oven- like glassiness of the airis not so noticeable now-a-days. All the heat, or nearly all of it, comes from above. Besides, it is very much easier to find cool places than it used to be. There is not the slightest doubt in my mind that the sprinkling has warded off a great many heat strokes.’’ From the morning reports of the Signal Service the following synopsis of the weather conditions was prepared to-day forthe Post- DISPATCH: High temperatures continue to be reported throughout the central and southeastern por- tions of the country, while much cooler weather ig reported from the extreme Northwest. The temperature at Calgary, B. C., fell last night to 86 deg. An area of low barometer is forcing its way across the Rocky Mountains in the vicinity of Colorado which will cause warmer weather west of the Mississippi for the next thirty-six hours. Showers have occurred throughout the Mississippi and Missouri Valleys and aloug the Gulf. Fair weather in eastern sections.’ The local forecast for St. Louis is fair weather; local showers.

There is quite a war among the manufact- urers of loaded shells for shotguns. They are slashing each other right and left’’ in order to unload. The trouble seems to have originated in the popularity of the Rawlings Bros.’ hand-loaded shells, manufactured at Eighth and Chestnut, and the price at which they are offered ($2 per 100) caused such a de- mandas toalarm the manufacturers of ma- chine-loaded shells. Hence the war. Will Raise the Crystal City. The Anchor Line boat Crystal City, which sunk seventy miles below St. Louis Wednes- day night, willbe raised and repaired. The boat collided with a snag three miles above St. Mary's landing, in the ‘‘eut-off’’ which she was coming through to save time, as her officers thought the stage of the water high enough to permit the trip being made. After staving in her hull on the snag the boat set- tled in 62 feet of water. The passengers and freight were taken oil without damage. The boat lies straight.

A GRAND THOROUGHFARE FOURTH STREET LEADING IN THE CON- STRUCTION OF COSTLY BUILDINGS. The Everett House to Be Rebuilt at an Ex- pense of $100,000 for the Meacham Arms Co.—Reconstruction of the Northwest Corner of Fine— Real Estate and Building Association News. E. O. Meacham of the Meacham Arms Co. yesterday telegraphed Samuel N. Holliday and George L. Allen, trustees for the estate of Gerard B. Allen, who are now at Rye Beach, closing his option of a ten year lease of a mod- ern business house of six stories to be erected upon the site of the old Everett House on the east side of Fourth street between Olive and Locust. The first announcement of this proposed improvement, which the architect, Isaac 8. Tayior, says will cost over $100,000, was made by the Posr- DISPATCH last December in con- nection with a ninety-nine year lease of addi- tional ground intended for the new building. This extra piece of ground extends northward from the rear of the hotel premises and fronts on the south line of Locust, a lease of it being secured for the Allen estate by the firm of John Byrne, Jr., & Co. from Mrs. McKnight. The work of tearing down the old buildings that now encumber the place would have been commenced long ago and the new struct- ure well advanced to completion but for the pending option which Mr. Meacham held until the limit of its term bad nearly expired. Pre- vious tothe execution of this option, how- ever, Mr. Taylor had prepared sketches fora building which the Allen heirs proposed erect- ing there, but when the option of occupying the new premises was given Mr. Meacham the architect was temporarily delayed pending a decision, as the arrangement of the structure depended largely upon the prospective oc- cupant’sideas of convenience and adaptability to a special line of business. Now that these matters have been definitely determined the plansforthe building will be made in the shortest time possible and the design suited to meet the requirements of the Meacham Arms Co. which will occupy the entire house with a frontage of sixty-four feet on Fourth, extending back 137 feet deep, with an L reaching north to Locust. This pian will give the firm twofronts, the one on Locust to be used for receiving and shipping merchandise. As stated, it is intended that the new struc- ture shall be of a very imposing and attractive architectural design, much finer than any building on Fourth street to-day. The front will be us nearly of plate glass as strength and durability will permit and its intervening columns of pressed brick are to be elaborately embelisbed with terra cotta with rich ornamentations of the same macerial at string courses, cornices andcaps. Mr. Taylor says Mr Meacbam is very anxious to get into the new house with little delay as possible ana an effort will be made to finish it in about six months. ANOTHER FOURTH STREET IMPROVEMENT. Another prospective improvement on Fourth street is at the northwest corner of Pine, best known as the location of Mussey’s billiard hall. The ground fronting 58 feet with a depth of 127 to an alley on Pine, belongs to the Wyman Crow estate. It is now under lease which was executedto Thomas T. Gant, deceased, and Thomas Skinker, the parties who made the improvements that are now there, many years ago. This lease has only eighteen months longer to run, and it is now reasonably assured that the Crow heirs will have made some ar- rangementto sell, release or improve that valuable corner before the present short life of the lease has expired, as the buildings upon the site have long since ceased to meet the requirements of the locality. It was stated in these columnsa short time since that the Planters’ House stock was being bought up with a view to tearing away that oid hotel pile and rebuilding the whole site with a magnificent modern structure in keep- ing with the unequaled progressive enterprise of St. Louis. This good news has since been verified, in a measure, and that this improve- ment will also be made in the near future does not admit of a reasonable doubt in view of the growth of the city and its necessity for more first-class hotels. Not- withstanding these facts, people who are not familiar with what is going on in their own city, have a great deal to say about Fourth street property having been ruined beyond allredemption. It is nevertheless true that wore large and costly commercial buildings are projected to-day on Fourth than upon any other business street in the city. larties weil posted in these inatters do not hesitate to say that Fourth street property is cheaper to-day than it will ever be again. TERRY PLACE. Terry place,comprising over 3,000 front feet which has lately been improved with streets, sewers, water mains and granitoid walks at an expense of over $15.000, is already com- manding the attention of people seeking weil established home sites convenient to a cable railway. The property has only been upon the market a few days vet its attractions and location on the east line of Taylor avenue 500 feet north of the Easton avenue cable has induced sev- eral parties to negotiate for the purchase of lots, and the sale of one piece fronting 50x130 fect on Garfield avenue ag lot No. 27 of Terry place, is reported by the Terry Bros. & Hart to-day to Mr. M. H. Holzman, who is going to improve the purchase with a $5,000 residence of eight rooms, which he intends to make his home, To-morrow the Terry place lots will be sold atauction and the probabllities fora great sale on that occasion are most favorable, as there is a demand for improved property of this character. AN IMMENSE GIRDER. Eames & Young, who are superintending the reconstruction ofthe property known as the oftice of the St. Louis Gas-Light Co., next west of the PosT-DisPaTcH building on Olive, say the contemplated improvements now under way will not cost less than $18,000. The property now belongs to J. G. Chapman, who purchased it in April last for $75,000. Mr. Chapman is having the building changed for occupancy by the jewelry firm of Merrick, Walsh & Pheips. For that urpose the whole of the first floor front is being changed to plate glass with an orna- mental column at the alley corner where the main entrance will be. Ail ot the original intervening front colums are being taken out, and to carry the immense weight that they supported the architects have designed ariveted wrought iron girder 26 feet long, 80 inches high and weighing 12,000 pounds, said to be the largest piece of architectural iron work ever used in this city for building purposes. Mr. Eames says the girder will have to sustain the weight of two ordinary locomotives, but is made strong — to bear up the avoirdupois of three and a half locomotives. In order to keep the front of the building from cracking, by reason of any settiin it is essential that the girder should remain — ee rigid without the possibility of the sixteent Art ot an inch deflection. The first floor is Boing lowered to the pavement and when ready for business will present a smooth mar- bie surface.

In connection with this the Secretary, Mr. Tbornbill, says the cost of an association loan may be interesting to members who have not gone into the details. He, therefore, gave the following as the approximate cost ofa loan on ten shares inthe New Era, if made at 15 per cent premium: Gross loan on ten shares...... deo eee 02,008 Less 15 per cent premium 300 Net proceeds . $1,700 Stock secured at the origin of this as- sociation, thirty-three months since, cost to date at 310 per month.... $ 830 Amount to be paid, assuming that the association will mature in nine years, seventy-five months at per month eer. „„ eet „ „ „„ „„ ee eee eee **’eere * 1.500 Total amount of money paid and to be paid for the loan. „„ „„ „ eee $1,830 % Ä! eee + 6 Oren eS Ae Which ts the actual amount of intergst to be paid for tne use of $1,700 six years and three months. Mr. Thorrhill believes that he is absolutely safe in estimating the life of the association at nine years, having as shown by the semi- annual statement supplied 529 shares with loans, and bought in and retired 330, or a total of 859 shares in thirty-three months. This being twenty-five shares more than one-third of the original 2,500. The sume ratio of busines if continued would mature the associationin a fraction over ninety-six months.

With the warning that the penaltyfor a future offense of the same nature would be doubly severe, Judge Cady fined Chas. Wit- tenburg $10 and costs inthe First District Police Court yesterday morniag. Wittenbure is a liquor dealer at Beaumont and Morgan streets, and was charged with careless driv- ing. It seems that about 7 o’clock on last Saturday evening a number of bicyclists rid- ing double file and close to the north side of the street were proceeding east on Pine street. When between Thirty-first and Thirty-second streets they encountered Wittenburg driving west with his wagon in the middle of the street. There was pienty of room to pass and the long line of riders nad gone safely by when suddenlv Wittenburg turned his horse to the right just in time to catch the last wheelman with his shafts, one of which struck the rider in the .breast, and the other catching the wheel under the back- bone and carrying d across the strect, while the rider was thrown violently to the street. The injured man, B. Pratt, living at 1320 La- Salle street, at once swore out a war- rant for W ittenbura’s arrest with the result above stated. The Supreme Court has often decided that the bicycie is a vehicle in every sense ofthe word, entitied toa place upon the public roads and the sooner some people learn to respect the rights of the wheelmen the better it will be for ali con- cerned.

A Sr. How a Cattle-Herder Found a Great Coal Deposit—A Fortunate Hailstorm—Abana- doned Shaft« That Have Proved Very Rich—Possibility of Establishing a New Manufaeturing District. $6 LIE fact is not gen. 2 * erally known,’’ 7 said Marcus A. WII 5 son of Thurber, Tex., who arrived in thecity this morn- ing, ‘‘that the coal industries of North- ern Texas are being most rapidly pushed to the front, and that St. Louis capi- talists are furnish- ing themeans. More than this, they dis- coveied the fleldg, ind to them is due the entire credit of vringing to the front some of the best coal fields west of the Missouri River. I refer tothe lands not far from Thurber, which are being operated by R. D. Hunter, Thomas Dawsoa, and a number of St. Louis men with whom I am not acquainted. A LUCKY FIND. When I say that these ficids were discovered by these gentlemen, Iam relying on the stories told, which give the credit to a herder of Evans and Hunter and J.T. Hill, when they were engaged in the cattle businessin Texas. The story goes that a man looking for stray horses was caught in a hailstorm in the win- ter and sought refuge undera bank. He hol- lowed out a sort of a cave with his knife, and came upon a thin veiu of lignite. He re- ported what he had found at the home ranch, and for some time the statiens were supplied with fuel from the veinin the casily worked plain. Before long it worked out, and for several years nothing more was thought of the matter. Evans & Hunter moved the greater part of their stock to the Indian Terri- tory, andthe old coal flelds were forgotten. This is notas strange as it may seem, when the fact is remembered that coal in small quantities is found everywhere beween the Guif of Mexico and the Black Hills. Thin flat seams are everywhere met with, but ail so far have been of inferior quality and near the surface. Near Cheyenne the ground in certain localities is finely honeycombed with shafte and tunnels, noneofthe former bein more than 10 or 15 feet deep, and in a gre many of them coal is found. But it is of little value as it has the peculiar quality of crumb- ling when exposed to the air, and in trans- portation grinds up so fine that little more than coaldust remains. For this reason few of thewestern veins have been followed to any extent. A RICH COAL FIELD. **After Evans and Hunter left their ranen it was occupied by a man from New York. He determined to find coalin paying quantities, having bad not a little experience in Pennsy!- vania and Ohio. Several shafte were sunk, one of them to the depth of 16 feet, and three or four more than seventy, and coal in very considerable quantities was found. But the first taken outshowed the crumbling char- acteristics of the ordinary plains coal and work was abandoned. The mines lay dle for several years, when an of the former owners chanced to look at them, and found that some of the lumps were as hard as the best Indiana block. He sometinie in investigating matters, qu set several me to work and foand confined _ that beneath this the coal closely re- semb the lish cannel. wore entered into and several of land purchased. * depth of 135 feet, but that this fact is being carefully concealed. In fact a great deal of secrecy is being preserved and much capital has been subscribed within the past two months to extend Operations, andit is rum- ored that large woolen mills will be set up. The cost of hauling Texas wool to the North very heavy, and itis believed that a firm Lowell, Mass., wlll locate works near the mines, where fuet of the best quality can be obtained at a very low cost, and the wool can be bought ata low figure. A cotton millis also talked of. In developing this section of Texas the interests of St. Louis will be ad- vanced, and it may be that St. Louls enter- prise will render Texas one of tue leading manufacturing States, as fuel bas been the great lack heretofore.’’ Buy Base “Ball Goods of Rawlings Bros.,.

A bill to enable the river aforesaid to locate permanently in the interior of Illinois and to waft the perfume of Chicago sewage over a dozen or more counties, was enacted by the last Illinois Legislature. But the necessary canal is yet to be excavated, and the suf- fering of Chicago people is still intense. — — . e — —— The Peril from Piutocracy. From the New York Times. The danger that arises from the unequal dis- tribution of wealth and its accumulation in the hands of the few is altogether real. It in- creases the power and influence of a pluto- cratie class, which tends more and more to direct the forces of society, to subsidize the press and even the pulpit, and to control the management of political parties, the results of elections, the action of legislative bodies and the course of public administration. The real peril at present comes from the fact that a public policy has been adopted in the past, and is still maintained, which involves the pecuniary interests of capitalists directly in the course of legislation and the action of the Government. The taxing power of the Government is used for their benefit, and so long as it is so used they will endeavor to control its operation. This has done more to build up a plutocracy and does more to main- tain it than all other causes combined, and the most effective means of averting the dan- ger ofits absolute and permanent control in public affairs is the adoption of a system of taxation that shall give it no advantage.

As a result of this test the company yesterday placed an or der for a number of cars to be placed on the line im- mediately, and has also decided to extend the overhead-wire system over ag much of its road as it can under its charter. As a result of this also -the Lindell Railway Co. is now erecting an experimental line of the Sprague overbead system on the western end of its Chouteau avenue division, and the company is so confident of the suc- cess Of this that it yesterday also contracted for the erection of a line on the western end of the Washington avenue division, and will extend it over every foot of its track just as soon as it can obtain the privilege to do so from the Municipal Assembly. The next companies to failintolinein the use of the overhead wire system will be those of which Mr. John Secullin is President, and the probabilities are that he will en- ter into contracts for the work within a week. Mr. Scullin is now in consultation with Mr. W. D. McQueston of New York on the subject, and expects to come to a conclusion within a few days. The Bos- ton electric lines were constructed largely under the supervision of Mr. McQueston, and he is now the consulting engineer of the com- pany there. He is spoken of by Mr. Scullin as the most careful and best-posted man in elec- tric motors in the country, and his judgment, after a complete survey of the Scullin routes, will be relied upon implicitly. THE HISTORY OF ELECTRIO MOTORS. A Post-DI8PATCH reporter found Mr. Me- Queston at the Southern Hotel this morning, and obtained from him a very interesting sketch of the history of electric motors. »The electric railroad itself, he said, is not of recent birth. A car was constructed in Baltimore in 1834, using the regular form of the wet cell battery, but owing to the break- ing of the cells and the slopping over of the jars it was given up. Again in 1881 a Vermont blacksinith took up the subject in a similar way, but was compelled to give it up on ac- count of the practical difficulties in the way of ovtaining sufficient current, From that time on experiments were made in all parts of the country, using batteries and also obtain- ing currents from dynamo machines, but nothing of any real commercial value was done until 1878, when Edison commenced his experiments at Menlo Park. These experiments covered a period of tour years and cost about $100,000. He built an overbead system, with three miles ot track, and em- ployed a 150-horse-power engine and dynamo machine. His ideas were in many respects of the same character as those embraced in more recent systems. He made a complote success, but the idea was abandoned owing to a lack of interest and the immense capital required at that time to develop it. Then, with Stephen D. Field of San Francisco, Edison experimented onthe Third avenue elevated road in New York. There also success was achieved, but the system was not utilized Owing to the great amount of capital required to change from steam to électricity. The ele- vated roads will, however, if electricity con- tinues to increuse in popularity, be compelled to change to that system. A 8T. LOUIS EXPERIMENT. About the conclusion of Edison’s experi- ments Dr. Wellington Adams of 8t. Louis organized a company to test the practicability of some ideas he had. He built two or three small practical working trucks and also two large working trucks with dynamos. He was plainivon the road to commercial success when his stockholders lost faith, decided to pay up their bills and quit. Later he reor- ganized the company, but failed to reach re- sults. This was in March, Also in that year F. J. Sprague, a lieutenant in the United States Navy, entered the employ of Edison, fand while engaged in putting in an electrical light station at Brockton, Mass., developed a motor. Aiter several attempts he brought out his automatica! regulating motor aud soon afterward formed a company to perfect it and carry out the work of introduging it. The company, however, for the first two years confined its efforts to stationary motor work. In — it began to widen out aud entered into a codOntract with the Passenyer Railway Co. of Richmond, Va., by which it equipped tweive miles of track with forty oars. n this road they carried as high as 20,000 people daily over grades of from 1 to 10 per cent. This was really THE FIRST COMMERCIAL ROAD over put in Operation by anybody in any part of the world. The practical resulta demon- strated were astounding, and surpassed not only the expectation of the railway public but the Sprague people as weil. From 1883 to 1886 experiments were also belng made in different parte of the country, principally by Leo Doft, who buliltone road in New Jersey and one in Canada. 8. H. Short of Columbus, O., then builta conduit line in Denver, the first ever constructed, but it was nota suc- cess. Then he turned to the overhead system, and constructed lines in Columbus and Hunt- ington. Thelinehenow has here is the first practical one he has had, however. Then Bentley & Knight, two patent lawvers, tried a storage-battery line (the first one). in Cleve- land, but it was abandoned because of the costand the depreciation of the batteries. The motor worked all right, but it was then demonstrated that the use of wet elec- tricity is not feasible, and we have never had anything to the contrary. Charies Vanderpool of Chicago also worked in this direction, putting a road in the Chicago Exposition. From 1886, when the Richmond road was completed, the GROWTH OF COMMBRCIAL ROADS has been phenomenal, It was there demon- strated that motive power by electricity would cost less than one-halfthe expense of operating by horse power, As compared to capie, the cost wasshown to be about two- thirds. The showing made as a result of this is remarkable. In 1886 the Richmond road wasthe Only one In the country and this ex- tended into 1887. The growth can be seen by the statement that in Aprilof this year there were 103 roads under construction or com- pleted. To-day there are upwards of two hun- dred under construction or completed and in operation. The great inducemeat to this xrowth is the low cost ot power. This alone ona well built road does not exceed 5 cents or car mile. With horses the cost} is 10 to 1 cents, and by cable the’ cost will not aver- age less than 7 or 8 cents per car mile. THE BOSTON EXPERIM . In the summer of 1888, Ben . Whitney of Boston, after having consolidated a the street railways in that city, ether — his board of directors, commencéd a tour of in- vestigation, looking into the merits of differ- ent systems of power. They secured a change of charter for the use of eables, but about the time work was to be commenced his attention was more forcibly called to th road. After carefully lookin he devided to give électric company first purch with the Julia cars of the Bentley · put on the same a mile and a h & conduit, put Oo., and runnir line was run 6,000. ja) a Bed res „ n clal, the cost ’ ight „ Ine of und. ‘works display contemplated until afew i | anew 1 8 > * ] 8 — 1 — cost nearly $200,000. In December company commenced the ＋ ot ot᷑ road on the Cam division similar to the — ty double motor n horse power cars were placed Thomson-Houston people. This covering six months, and testing Sprague, Bentley- Knight and Thomson ton, was regarded as very conclusive. THE NECESSITY FOR ACTION then became apparent. Mr. Whitney and his associates were convinced of the feasi- bility of the overhead electric wire system, and that it isthe coming system. They had, power ere to obtain the right to use it, and th course a feel- of poles. however had tried and shown to be inadequate. battery was not feasible, and the les were the only success. We took the ard of Aldermen out for an experimental trip on the eleven miles oftrack, everything was tested fully, and we madean average of over fifteen miles an hour on trial runs. Mr. Whitney then took the Board of Aldermen to Richmond and other cities, and included in the trip an investiga- tion of the system on the Broadway line here. The result of this was that by a unanimous vote Mr. Whitney’s company was given the privilege of putting the overhead wire system every foot of its track This vote was largel y the oppeezence of the cars, all lighted by electricity, and the fact that they could be stopped in their own length and were gafer than any other motor. „„The Boston West End Co.stands among the street rallways as the BIGGEST ONE IN THE WORLD, and its action shows what has been done more than the increase in the number of lines. It has about 800 miles of track, 2,000 cars and 11,000 horses. Under the privilege from the Board of Aldermen it has just let contracts aggregating $1,000,000. This covers an immense power- house of 3,000- horse power, 5. 200 polesand 120cars. This, however, is only a beginning, as it will equip its 300 miles as rapidly as possible. Its cars are run in trains, generally, and it has, more for the purpose of showing what is poss ble than any- thing else, some cars with 40-horse power motors, with which it tows six cars crowded with people. The trains can be stopped in the length of one car as easily as a train of two cars and their speed can be made from one to twenty-five miles an hour at will. This is of great value in caseof a blockade, and shows a great advantage over the cable, as the latter can run no faster than the rope. COMPARED TO THE CABLE IN COST of construction the electric overhead wire system aiso big advantage. I should say approximate cost of the depending on the number of cars with which the road may be equipped, is in the neighborhood of $100,- 000 a mile; while the cost of the electric over- head wire is about $25,000.’’ Speaking generally as to how the system has taken hold of the railway world, Mr. Me- Queston said Cincinnati, Cleveland and Al- bany are each to have two roads, and Chicago, Rochester, Brooklyn and New York one each, with others to follow. In the choice of roads it is about an equal thing between the Sprague and Thowson- Houston. Mr. McQueston leaves for home to- night, so as to be present at the opening of a road in Lowell, Mass., in which Gen. Benj. F. Butler is the leading spirit. Gen. Butler, he says, has shown a great deal of enthusiasm in the growth of the electric motor. 0 riment ly the ° —The richest and most Red Aristocrats. enlightened of Indian tribes.

GAINESVILLE, Tex., July 12.—News reached here to-day from Mud Creek, Chickasaw Nation, of the extermination of a large sheep ranch lu that community by cowboys. The ranch belonged to a Mexican at whom the cowboys, who were taking charge of the cat- tle ranch of Mrs. Criner near by, become of- fended, and in order to drive him out of the county they went to his ranch a few days ago, raided his flocks, killing several hundred sheep and scattering the others over the country. Great excitement prevalls in the neighborhood over this outrage and war- rants have beén sworn out for the arrest of the parties and put in the hands of Deputy United States Marshale, who left to-day to make the arrests. There are six cowboys charged with the crime, all of whom are heaviiy armed. They have sent word to the officers that they will not be arrested and a bloody battle is expected. IMMIGRATION STATISTICS, A Considerable Falling Off for the First Quarter of 1889. By Telegraph to the PostT-Disratcu.

Some Unknown Debtor Adds to the Assets of the Firm ot Carter & Conu—Chas. Par- sons and Others Anxious to Know Him— His Name to Be Concealed—A Queer Fi- nancial Tale. Hs circular notice which Mr. Willlam R. Walker has sent to the ereditors of the old and long ago defunct firm of Carter u, brings to light an in- cident thatis strange and unusual. The cir- cular states that No- vember 26, 1873, nearly sixteen years ago, a petition in bankruptcy was filed in the United States District Court against Carter & Conn, and under that petition Carter & Conn were adjudged bankrupts. Mr. Thomas E. Tutt was appointed assignee, and he managed and wound up the affairs of the firm. On No- vember 19, 1880, Mr. Tutt rendered his account to the court and was discharged. It was sup- posed then that the firm of Carter & Conn and all its affairs would be forgotten and never again heard of, but the unexpected always happens and it certainly didin this case. A few days ago a gentleman, whose name Mrs. Walker is not at liberty to mention, came to him and said that he represented another person and that his principal desired to re- turn to the assignee some money which he owed to the firm of Carter 4 Conn, together with the interest. Mr. Walker had been Mr. Tutt’s attorney in several matters connected with the case and the unknown man remem- bered it. Mr. Walker said to the representa- tive that he thought there was some mistake because he knew that all the debts of the Arm had been collected, and besides, the name of the person who desired to pay atthis late date did not appear on the books, and nowhere, in either the books or the papers, is there any trace of this asset. THE ‘‘ENVOY EXTRAORDINARY,’’ however, insisted that his principal did owe the money and was ready to pay it. Mr. Walker asked how much the gentleman thought he owed the old firm, and the reply was $2,293.50. The representative also said that he had figured out the interest and it amounted to $2,064.15, nearly as much as the principal, the total being $4,357.65. Moreover, the representative said that he wanted it distinctly understood that the payment of this money was not a donation to a conscience fund. There was nothing dishon- est or wrong abaut it, but a mistake had been made, and the principal had learned that what he thought at the time to be due him he was not entitled to, and he simpiy wanted to pay what througha mistake he had wrongly obtained. Mr. Walker still thought that the money was not due, that the gentleman was mis- taken; but the envoy insisted that he was right, and Mr. Waiker went to see Mr. Tutt. He told Mr. Tutt of the queer circumstance and said that since Mr. Tutt had been the as- signee be was the only one who could receive the money; but Mr. Tutt requested Mr. Walker to act for him in the matter, and Mr. Walker took charge of the money. He apportioned it among the creditors of Carter & Conn and sent them notices éxplaining how he had come into possession of the money. The State Bank at the time of the failure of the State Savings Institution was the largest vereditor, having held nearly 50 per cent of the paper of Carter & Conn, and it received as its portion of the money so strangely returned $1,975. When Mr. Parsons sent for the money he made an earnest request to be given THE NAME OF THE MAN who had paid it, bat Mr. Walker sent him word that the gentleman had imposed secrecy as to his identity, and his name could not be made known. Mr. Walker said this morning: „still think that there is some mistake and that the debt which this gentieman thinks he owes is all in his imagination. The accounts of the firm were oarefully closed up. Every- thing was accounted for and I cannot imagine how the debt can be due. But be says that he Owes it and insists upon paying it, with fifteen years’ interest, and there was nothing todo but to accept it and distribute it among the creditors.’’ MR. WALKER nor was he asked why the — had been distributed amon the ereditors. It seems to be a question, however, whether they are entitied to it. In 188 the firm of Carter & Conn was discharged from bank- ruptcy. That discharge wiped out—under the bankrupt laws—all of the debts of the firm, and though the creditors were not paid in full, still they ceased to be creditors, for allof the assets of the firm having been distributed the court deciared that Carter & Conn owed nothing. The balance duethe creditors was wiped oat by the court. This find coming in it is distributed proportionately among those who were creditors, but since they are not now creditors and have not been since 1880, it is a legal question whether the money which the unknown debtor paid sbouid not have been turned over to the members of the firm. The case, however, is a strange oue in whatever light it is viewed,and itis calculated to make one believe that if Diogenes had not, died so young he would yet, with the aid of his lamp, have discovered an honest man.

At a late hour last evening, struggling vio. lently in the arms of her patient husband and two stalwart officers, Mrs. J. F. Crews was lifted into a Missouri Pacific thé Union Depot to de taken 10 her home in Kirkwood. The lady 6 demented. She isthe wife of J. F. Crews og Kirkwood, editor and proprietor of the Kk. wood News. Over a month ago Mrs. Crews left her home and came to St. Louis Without ving her husband or friends any notice of rdeparture. This was but the beginning of a series of such escapes Which have almost driven the husband to distraction. On that occasion she was easily found at the home of a friend in this city and a close watch Boece upon her subsequent movements. On onday last the lady again left ber home and was seen hurrying along a country road niles from Kirkwood, She was taken back but that same night, under cover of darkness, she made a second escape eluding the vigilance of her guard and escap. ing the prewises by clam!ering from a see. ond story window to the yard beneath. Ing few minutes her absence was noted, but de. spite the vigorous search which was at once instituted, the lady succeeded in eluding all pursuers. Mrs. Crews came on to St. Louis early on Tuesday morning and placed the matter in the hands of the police, furnishing an accurate descrip. tion of his missing wife. Tuesday evening Mrs. Crews made her appearance at the home of Dr. Williamson, at Ninth street and Fran x. Un avenue, and was allowed to leave, no notice having been received of her condition. When nt Dr. Williamson’s she stated that she was on her way too see Mrs. Waters at 2541 Hebert street, but inquiry developed the fact that she had failed to put in appearance. Yesterc, morning at about II o’clock the lady appeared at the livery stable of N. S. Clements at Fourteenth and Market streets, saying thatshe wanted to hirearig. Mr. Clements recognized her on description and telephoned police headquarters, with the result that sie was soon atthe Four Courts. Mr. Crews was at once notified, and the prisoner turned over tothe matrou, Mrs. Harris, who took her to her own room in the third story of the building. here she again escaped. Theattention of Mrs. Harris having been for the moment attracted by some 447 callers, Mrs. Crews with great cunning silently tip-toed her way through the hai! aud down the long flieht of stairs, and was outot sight when, three minutes later, the alarm was given and the officers dispatched in every direction in pursuit. All day long the search was continued, but with no avail, and when the anxious husband arrived early in the evening, he was met with the heart. rending news. The fears of all concerned were heightened by the actions of the lad: while in Mrs. Harris’ charge. She contin- ually asked about the river, where it was and how deep were its waters, expressing a desire to see the stream. To Mrs. Harris’ questions asto her purpose in going to the river she cautiously answered, ‘‘Just to see it, and then exelaimed,‘‘I can’t live. 1 must die. How can 1 kill myself?“ About 7 o’ clock last evening Mrs. Crewe was seen at Twentieth and Pine by a Kirkwood reporter who took her to the residence of Mrs, E. Anderson near by and hastened to inform the police. Before his return the lady had slipped outa side door and was again a wan. derer. Her peculiar appearance, hatless aud wearing a heavy bandage about her head, at- tracted the attention of some pedestrians at Fourteenth and Market an hour afterwards and she was soon in the hands of the police, who turned her over to the care of train at Ioan ve oe —. % te er war her husband and the Kirkwood authorities. Mrs. Crews’ affliction is the result of a full. In December last she was out driving. The bugaey was overturned and the lady thrown violently to round, alighting on her head. or months she lay hovering between life and death, only to recover with her mind unbual- anced and her whole nervous system un- strung. The care of her five small children now devolves upon the father. Mrs. Crews does not recognize any of her family or friends. AN UNABATED NUISANCE. Many Complaints About the Weeds in Vacant Lots— Municipal Matters. Numerous and just complaints are being re- ceived daily by Chief Sanitary Inspector Fran- cig concerning the weed nuisances in all parts of the city. Every day complaints are sent in saying that the weeds on vacant lots are threatening the health of the neighborhood where they exist. In speaking of the subject this morning In- spector Francie sald: 1 am satisfled that these weeds are as much of a nuisance as the citizens claim, and that some steps should be taken at the beginuing of every summer to have them removed and képt down, but un- fortinately there is no law or charter pro- vision giving us any authority’ in the prem- ises, and we can do nothing. For atime it Was generally believed that the rank growth of weeds growing on vacant lots about the eclty could do no appreciable harm but of late the opinions of most people have changed considerably and it isnow well estud- lished that these growths are dangerous. Sometimes the weeds crow thiek and close as high as a man’s head. In these weeds are Olten thrown rubbieh, slops and dead animals which, of course, are not discovered until they begin to ret and after they bave polluted the atmosphere. Then the weeds thern- selves in 2 cool ot the oeve- ning undoubtedly emit a malarial germ. How we can abate this nuisance an open question. The Health Department has no au- thority to order the weeds removed and it can only be done at praesent by the owner of the property. Acharter amendment was twice proposed for this purpose and lost both times and I think that pow It is about time that some remedy be found and put into practice. The cost to the owners of property would be very — and be amply returned by the benefit de- rived.’ THE BR. r. 1.

The Manhattan Railway magnates who called on Mayor Grant yesterday did not suc- ceed in impressing him with the idea that be- cause they had made money.out of the city by providing a makeshift for rapid tran- sit during the last ten years they were there- fore entitled to have their present very unsat- jstactory monopoly protected against the com- petition of genuine rapid transit. It is en- tirely evident that what Jay Gould and his as- sociates are intent upon is not the provision of adequate facilities for rapid transit by means of the present elevated system, a thing that is simply impossible, but the prevention of any real rapid-transit which would take away a part of the travel which they so inad- equately accommodate. They are engaged in game of *‘bluff’’ intended to head off the rapid transit movement, but they have the opie and the authorities and the whole tbe of public sentiment against them. As was to be expected, the Sun comes to their support, but it stands alone among the New York newspapers in defense of the arrogant monopolists, and never represents public opinion. Good for Mayor Grant. From the New York Herald, March 22, 89. The Mayor’s Office was invaded yesterday, not exactly by the Goths and Vandals, but by the representatives of Jay Gould and his ele- vated road. The conversation was rich, racy, sometimes witty, and allthe time interesting. The in- vaders pleaded pathetically for an extension of the *‘L’’ system, but His Honor was as in- exorable as the statue of Lincoln on Union Square. hey seemed to think that Battery Park and City Hall Park anda boulevard or two from Sixty-fifth street to Kingsbridge might be about all they would need forthe present. If at any time they should happen to want the rest of New York, why we have a dim impres, sion that their native modesty will not deter them from asking for it. Mayor Grant rammed the whole subject into a nutshell, however, by saying, ‘‘We must devise ascheme for the future needs of this city, not for any present emergency.“ That is just it, Your Honore New Tork is growing to be a big place—almvust too big for Mr. Gould to get into his pocket, though he doesn't think so. When, therefore, we make a move inthe direction of rapid transit we must be sure that itis real rapid transit—say thirty miles an hour—and not this rumbling, grumbling, ricketty matter of twelve miles at its highest speed. The Elevated Roads and the Parks. From the New York WORLD, Apri! 10, 1889. Ine impudence of the managers of the ele- vated railway system affords matter for con- tinual interest and astonishment to the peo- ple of New York. Their persistent attempts to confiscate the Battery Parkin spite of the rejection of theirdemands by every author- ized organ of public opinion indicate that they do not mean to stop at trifies. It is, of course, characteristic of corporations, which ere, by the nature of the case, much more shamelesss than the Individuals who compose them, that when an inch is given to them they willetrive after an ell. The roads were built in order to meet a very urgent demand for rapid transit, and the use of the public streets was voted to their projectors as an encour- agement to provide what it was feared conld not be provided otherwise. The consequences have followed that were to be expected. The corporation has absolutely destroyed some streets as regards their use in supplying light and air to the lower stories ofthe houses that borderthem. They have built stations out- side of their structure, and they use some miles of tue public streets as places of storage for cars out of use, which they should be com- pelled to store at their own expense. Al- though the return on the actual investment is so great that they have resorted to several elisifications of that investment to comceal it, they have resisted in a spirit of deflance every ellort to make them pay for the damages they have inflicted. In order to force every prop- erty holder whom they injure to fignt them fogle handed, they have invoked a criminal proceeding to prevent property holders from associating against them. Moreover, it is not rapid transit that they provide, or any ap- proximation to it that is now tolerable. It has become clear, indeed, that such a transit cannot be attained under their system. Elevated Roads on the West Side. From the New York Tribune March 23, 89. Mr. Lawson N. Fuller, who is an earnest ad- Yocate of rapid transit, calle for an elevated road up Tenth avenue to Kingsbridge. Other Propositions have been made from time to ue for the building of an elevated road upon te Boulevard. Evidently the few broad ave- hues lying between Central Park and the Hud- *uRiverareinsome danger of undergoing tue same gobbling process that has been Seflectively carried on further down town. We believe publie sentiment to be firmly op- hosed to the building of any more elevated roads, but if there is any quarter of the city in ch an addition to the number would be particularly unfortunate, it would be in that Sholee section known as the West Side.

Her victimes are almost always the peo- ple who have not as yet brought suit; and if she finds that she can influence them at all, either by telling a provoking yarn about the grasping meanness of lawyers as a class or by suggesting the propriety of settling with the railroad company for a small sum paid down, she continues to manipulate them, reporting her experiences dally to her employers.

From the New York Times, April 14, 1889. Owners of real estate along the lines of the tem of detective espionage and survaillance to which they are constantly subjected by the hirelings ofthe company. Thie was never go prominent as it has been since the number of suite for damages to property began to multi- whom there are several,including two women, appear to be an auxiliary force to the law de- partment, for whose assistance they are em- ployed ostensibly to get evidence for the com- pany in these damage cases. Until recently the detective force was supplemented by two general detective agencies, one at 71 Broad- way and another in Park Row; but with the failure of the company to work its champerty bluff against the lawyers representing the property owners, one of them was discharged and has since gone out of business. The methods of these secret hirelings are often as disreputable and odious as anything the criminal records of their class can show. Two instances have recently come to light in which they have attempted to bribe the clerks of law firms having cases against them to re- veal office secrets and to steal valuable papers in the cases and give them to the would-be bribers. One of them offered the clerk ofa lawyer in Broadway 5100 to get him the papers in a case that was upon the eve of trial. He was led on bythe clerk to an appointment in a billiard saloon, where the olerk nad his prin- cipal in hearing distance, when the detective offered theclerk a check for $25 on account and promised him $75 more the next day if he would get him the desiréd papers. The clerk insisted upon having the whole $100 paid down upon the delivery of the papers, but the de- tective said the papers would have to be ex- amined before he could get the whole sum and the lawyer making his presence known atthis juncture the detective took flight and in- continently fled. A similar case more recently happened, in which an effort was made to tamper with the clerk ofa firm oflawyers in Wall street, and in this case the detective having revealed hie identity the lawyers have declared their in- tention to lay the matter before the Grand- jury. Toward the property owners themselves the methods ofthe detective crew are not always as Considerate even as this. One of them re- cently approached a complainant in one of the damage suits that are giving the elevated rail- way company so much concera and advised him that, if he desired to avoid a prosecution before the Grand-jury, he had better drop that case. He pretended to have ascertained that a number of gamblers had been running a gambling establishment in his building and that he was in collusion with them. The de- tective made a mistake in this instance and was kicked off the premises for his pains. But it is in continued small annoyances, and by resorting to trickery and deceit, that the secret agents of the elevated roads make themselves particularly obnoxious. One of the main questions in the damage cases is the effect the road has had upon the value of the property injured. Upon this the measure of damages rests. The effort of the lawyers for the elevated railroad is to show that the property has, if anything, been benefited by the road, and to this end their witnesses are required to testify to a high valuation upon the property. But the courts have become familiar withthe ‘‘experts’’ upon whom the company depends in general for this class of testimony, and take their expressions of ex- pert opinion as so much suborned and inter- ested guesswork only, having but little value asevidence. A standard task of the detec- tives is, therefore, to try and get an offer from the owner of a sale of his premises at some fancy figure. The detective in this case appears either as a real estate dealer with a customer for just such a place, or as a would- be purchaser on his own account. If he finds the owner ready and willing to sell, his object is defeated; for then the property isin the market at its real market value. But if, as is generally the case, the owner is the occupant, and is conducting a business of his own upon the premises, the only inducement there could befor parting with his property would be afancy figure. And it often occurs that in order to get rid of his pestiferous customer the owner willname a price far in excess of what he knows to be the real value of the property. That’sthe last he usually sees of the man who wants to buy the property until the damage case comes on for trial, and then his astonishmentis great to find him testify- ing to the fact that he has réfused to part with his property short of that fancy price, which is thus sought to be made the real vaiue of the property, and thus bearing out the claim of the rallroad’s lawyers thatthe property has not been injured by the road. The female detectives are employed to prowl through the premises and talk with tenants, who are often ready to abuse their landlords and the premises, and even to testify that the presence ofthe railroad at their front win- dows is so great a comfort, so soothing to their repose, so diverting during the day, that they would pay a premium for the purpose of living on the line. When the case is brought on for trial the lawyers for the road are al- most always supplicd with a complete descrip- tion of every defect about the buiiding, and with these, exaggerated as much as possible, they offer to show that the value of the prop- erty is depreciated by them rather than by the railroad. Tenants are introduced to testify that they would pay more rent ifthe not insecure, or it the roof did not leax, or if One of the females is an attractive blonde of a perfect sharper, and quick to play upon any If this scheme does not work, the detectives 0 N „ aint én elevated railroads are complaining of the sys- ply against the company.

In a hundred similar ways this gang of hired parasites intrude upon the owners of property damaged by the elevated railroads, making themselves universally obnoxious. But they are, tor all that, a faithless lot. Generally underpaid and despising their lot, they have occasionally approached counsel for the property owners with an offer to sell out their information and to turn upon the company on the witness- stand. One of them inthe regular omploy ofthe company has drawn a weekly salary from a firm of lawyers down town for severai months, both employers being appar- ently satisfied with the service, although Mammon, inthis instance incarnate in the elevated railroad company, is getting a little the worst of the bargain. This inordinate and continuous expense is telling upon the company. The support of an army of detectives and lawyers and the con- stant leak from the treasury of the company on account of fictitious expense accounts, and, beyond all, the extraordinary damages they are being compelled to pay for injuries to property, amounting to over three times what it would have cost the company had they pro- ceeded honestiy, as other railroad enterprises have, to compensate the owners for property taken when they first built the road, all this was never contemplated among the charges upon the roads when they were first built. Already one dividend has been passed, and now, itis asserted bya lawyer perfectly fa- miliar with the condition of the road, it is to be bonded in many millions of dollars more to pay the judgment for damages present and prospective that it will have to meet. Whether tbe road wiliever pay dividends on its com- mon stock after the issuance of these bonds remains to be seen. THE HAGGIN-DWYER KOW. Flatly Charged With Having Entered Kern to Foul Other Runners. The trouble growing out of the Salvator race at Monmouth Park over Haggin’s entry of a worthiess borse named Kern, which fouled Eric and Long Dance in the run for the Lorillard Stakes, promises to cause lasting difierences between lerding horsemen of the country. When J. B. Haggin went into the timers’ stand after the race Philip J. Dwyer, Presi- dent ofthe Brooklyn Jockey Club, who was one of the timers, greeted him with these words: Mr. Haggin, I believe that you put that colt Kern in that race so that he could foul other horses and let Salvator win.’’ Mr. Haggin answered not a word. He quietly turned away, walked down the steps of the timers’ stand, crossed the track and went to the club-house. He and Mr. Dwyer did not meet again. Here is{the official statement of the decision which rules off the jockey, Brant: The Executive Committee of the Mon- mouth Park Association, having investigated the running of the Lorillard stakes, are of the opinion that Mr, Haggin’s horse hern was ridden foully. The complaint was made too late to affect the award of the race to Salvator. The jockey, Brant, is ruled of the course. Here is the startling and sensational mean- ing of this decision: If the com- plaint of foul nad been made in time (that is, before the horses were placed by the judges) the inevitable result would have been that the $20,000 Lorillard stakes would have been taken away from Mr.Haggin and given to the Dwyer Brothers, the owners of Longstreet, the sec- ond horse. Allracingrules in all countries require thatifacharge of foul riding is sus- tained against one horse in a stable before the horses are placed by the judges, no stable companion can take the prize. If the jockey on one horse commits a foul that dis- qualities the whole stable for that race, if the complaint is made in time. It is a fertunate thing for Mr. Haggin that Mr. Cassatt did not make his complaint until after the judges had placed tie first, second and third horses. The charge of fouling against Brant on Kern was sustalzed by the stutements of Hay- ward, whorode Eric; Fitzpatrick, who rode the Favordale colt; Garrison, who rode Long- street, and Hamilton, who rode Sorrento, Concerning the trouble Haggin said: ‘‘Ido not know that there is anything for me to say or do. No doubt Mr. Dyer was ex- cited by losing the race when he said what he did. Infact, all the stir seems to have come from gentlemen whose horses were beaten by Salvator. Now, if they think that their colts are as good as mine, lam perfectly willing to run Salvator against their horses again for as much money as was at stake, or for more. WEDDING INVITATIONS.

The improvements, a hotel, a restaur- ant with twenty-five dining-tables, a lodging- house, a public reading-room, telegraph office and Maugh’s Tabernacle—a new and handsome structure, just erected and ar- ranged to accommodate an immense au- nience. The dally admission to the grounds will be 25 cents, but seagon-tickets will be sold ata very low rate. Passengers are landed right in the Park. Mr. Ben Deering of this city will be manager of the park. Lake Maxinkuckee is one of the prettiest lakes in the country. It is three miles in length from north to south, and two and one- half miles in width from east to west. It is fed by hidden springs from which the clear, cold, sparkling water issues all the year round, The shores are clean, clear of weeds, flags and undergrowth, and easily approacned ut any point. There is no decaying veuweta- tion, or -debris, or uoisome accumulation. The bottom is smooth and gravely. The depth increases from the shores gradually, until in the center it is at least 100 feet. Ata depth of twenty feet a silver dime can be seen at the bottom, so clear is the water and so clean and solid the bed of the lake. On one side the banks ure steep and precipitous, high wooded bluffs rising twenty to one hundred feet above the level of the water. On the other side the shores are skirted here and there with woodland. The only apparent in- let is a diminutive stream flowing in through a little valley on the north. The only outletisa silvery brooklet, flowing off to the southwest and falling into the Lost Lake. The waters are always fresh, pure anc cool, however, finding constantinflow from the springs and outflow through some subterranean channel. Although the Water is so clear fish abound, many varieties sporting with thesilvery waves or gliding through the depths. It was always a favorite fishing place with the Indians, who made annual encampments about the shores and feasted on the finny tribes of ‘‘Maxin- kuckes,’’ a name they save the lake to de- note the crystal clearness of its waters. Presentation to Rev. Colman. Rev. E. T. Colman, Manager and Mission- ary in charge of Liberty Evangelical Mission, 719 Franklin avenue, was agreeably surprised Wednesday night at his residence, 2902 Morgan street, by a large citcle of friends, who are interested in the work which he has been car- rying on without salary or reward from any chureh or denomination during the past three yearsin the neglected portion of the city.

BALL AND PAGEAN T BOTH OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT RECEIVED FROM HIS MAJESTY THE VEILED PROPHET. The Preparations Being Made for the Fvent on a Grander Scale Than Ever Before The Costumes More Gorgeous and the Contrast of Colors More Brilliant. OR some reason which can hardly be explained the idea has become some- what general that St. Louis bas seen the last of the Veiled Prophet and his arm- ies. The only basis; for this idea, how- ever, seems to be that the old quarters on Twelfth and Mar- ket streets have been : abandoned, and there seems to be no other place in the city which can be used by His Majesty for the storage of his beautiful floats. With the pub- lic this has been considered a strong basis, though a message ‘rom the mysterious realms of the Prophet was published some time ago in the Post-DisPpatcH, to the efiect that there was no reason to doubt that he would this year make his twelfth annua! visit. He always had such a pleasant time on these visits that he could not contemplate allow- ing them to lapse, and he would not do so un- less under circumstances which he could not overcome. Now, however, there is definite notice. The Prophet has discovered that there is uncer- tainty as to the grand illuminations which have been given here ever since his first visit, and that ln the proposed festival of fire ob stacles have been encountered which seem to be insurmountable. Grander preparations than ever are being made for the great St. Louis Exposition, and the Fair will, according to promise, eclipse anything in its history. But the people want more than that. The thousands of visitors who will throng the streets of St. Louis this fail want some grand event. Knowing this, President Kennard of the Exposition Association some days ago dispatched a special messenger to interview His Majesty on the subject of what he had to promise. To-day he received OFFICIAL NOTICE AS TO PAGEANT AND BALL, and is able to announce that St. Louis and her visitors will have them both, There was a fear that either the pageant or ball would be dispensed with, even should the Prophet make his appearance at all. And it was thought in this connection that the ball would be the feature omitted. But now that is all settled. The Prophet never breaks his word, and in returning official notice to President Kennard that he will be here for both pageant and ball, and that he will be accompanied by his full retinue in their most brilliant costumes, he places the Exvosition Association in positiou to make the most absolute announcements as to what Is in store for the ge of this earth as they gather in this cit The Prophet aiso says he is delighte with the house erected for his use on Walnut street between Twenty-firstand Twenty-second, and that it will enable him to make a much grander showing than ever before. Thescale as he has decided upon itis on the most elaborate preparations and will eclipse anything in the ast. The colors will be brighter and the orses more gaily caparisoned. MORE THAN ALL THIS there is good reason for believing that the messenger whoreturned to President Kennard to-day brought more with him than he could speak of to the ‘worldiy throngs. While in the mysterious wonderland in which His Maj- esty rules he obtained a glimpse of the prepa- rations already being made and saw enough to know that these preparations are even now very far advanced. The Prilitant story will furnish one of the most yrilliant spectacular productions ever seen, it or outside of a theater. The work will all be of the most artistic description. Atthe same time it will be of a class to please the masses, The Prophet was, as usual, very ex- clusive as to his subject, but as the messen- ger was leaving his presence he remarked significantiy that the ball this year would be for the classes who — attend such places, and the pageant would be for the eople. There is real enjoyment in the pleasure and enthusiasm of the pit.“ he said, but there is only a mild form of satisfaction in the hand-clapping of the dress circle.’’ The ball costumes being arranged, so far as they could be seen, carry out this idea, while the other eg reg show that they will make the small boy and his country cousin happier than they ever were before.

THAT AWFUL REPRIMAND. Sergt. Weber’s Penalty for Refusing to Stand Up Arrives To-Day. Lieut. Watkins of the Signal Service to-day received from the office of the Adjutant General of the army at Washington an official copy of the repri- mand of Sergt. Gustavus Weber. The reprimand was identical with the review of the finding of the court-martial which was printed in the Post-DISPATCH on Monday,and is more a razoo of the courtthat tried Sergt. Weber than ofthe Sergeant. With this doca- ment came orders from the Signal Service of- fice at Washington transterring Sergt. Weber to Cleveland, O., for duty. Lieut. Watkins sent out two men to find Sergt. Weber that he might be released from arrestand receive the orders to proceed to Cleveland. Mr. Weber was not at home and the men returned with the information that he could not be found. A letter has been received from Francis E. Nipher, who is now in lowa City, condemning the court’s finding. He says It is a outrage. Ifanything is needed to show the absurdity of the whole military weather service business it is this result. If he is transferred or resigns, I will resign also. In a time of profound peace 1 do not intend to subject myself to the rigors of military discipline, merely that the people in Missouri may have a record of the weather. Prof. Nipher established the Missouri Weather Service and ran it at his own expense for years. He had no assistance from the Gov- ernment until Sergt. Weber was assigned to help him. If he gives up this work it will be a great loss to the students of meteorology. AMONG THE BROKERS, West Granite Boom—A Declining Market in Other Stocks, Trading to-day on the Mining Exchange shows amarked decline in several stocks, and West Granite alone manifested any con- siderable strength. * Although no news was received from Helena, the market for West Granite was strong. and quotations steadily rose. Bidding opened at 85, and after shares had changed hands atthis figurethe price rose to 86%; at this price sales were large, 700 shares being dis- posed of. The stock then rose to 87h, and at this figure the heaviest transfers of the day were made, over 1,500 shares changing hands; 87% was frequently offered, but no stock was obtainable, and purchasers were obliged to bid 88%; at that quotation 200 shares changed hands, and the price rose to 90, at which 600 shares were sold. The reports on the street were to the effect that a syndicate had been formed among the present holders of the West Granite, which would take up the notes and suppiy ample funds for continuing work. Thijs rumor could be traced to no authentic source. A number of bets had been made that the stock would be quoted at 90 before it sold at 60, and the rise is by some ascribed to this cause. * 1 * Adams was 30 bid, 8½ was offered for Ari- zona; Aztec was 384g bid, 26 was offered for Black Oak; Small Hopes wag $1.80 bid, $1.40 asked; 12,000 Black Spar sold at 8; Cariboo was 8% asked, 8 did; Cleveland and Auchor was 2242 bid; 7 was asked for Conception, 5 offered; Dinero was 5 bid, 7% asked; 6249 was asked for Ivanhoe, 52½ bid; 200 Gold King brought 874%, the stock 23 at 36% bid; 200 Gold Run sold at 5, and 224 asked; he 2 Giant at 15; at 14 the transfers aggregated 200 shares and the stock was alterwards offered -4 be with no takers; M.

Mount, iateof the Third Artillery, has been appointed custodian of the Washington monument. Capt. Mount’s appointment bas more than ordinary interest attached to it. His resignation from the army was presented to the Colonel of his regiment and accepted. Capt. Mount sought to have the acceptance revoked, asserting that he had not received the month’s warn 8 the Colonel had promised to give him when he placed the resignation in the Colonel's hand, to be for- warded in case he did not mend his ways. It was found, however, that there was no legal method by which Capt. Mount could be re- stored tothe army. Since his entry into civil Ute the Captain has greatly improved. Col. John M. Wilson, Commissioner of Public Buildings and Grounds, firat gave him em- ployment as an ordinary laborer and subse- quently promoted him to a place at 360 a month in charge of Government property. In this position he showed himself steady, diligent and capable and when the vacancy occurred in the office of Oustodian of the Monument Capt. Mount was given the place.

EFFORTS TO MATCH THE CRACKS, SAL¥A- TOR AND LONGSTREET. * The Browns Win a Poor But Exciting Game From the Athletics—Cleveland Beaten by New York—Sailor Brown Terribly Fun - ished by Pete Jackson—Firen#i Downs Raceland—Racing and Sporting News. By Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. New York, July 12. AGGIN’S mare Firenzi resumes hersway as queen of the turf. Neith- er weight nor distance can stop her. Before her race for the Mon- mouth Cup yes- terday her back- ers crowded the betting ring to suffocation, and when tne race * was over there ~ was no creature N „nn tnis broad land I 1— \ § that received — 0 \\ N Smor praise than “Ss * ¥ the daughter of Glenelg an d — Florida. Mr. Bei- mont's mighty race horse Raceland, son ot Billet, was the only one to meet the mare for the cup. Hanover, Sir Dixon, Taragon and a dozen other cracks nominated for the race left the battle to this royal pair. Kern, the only other probable starter on the programme, did not appear, because, as Mr. Haggin said to a reporter, there was no necessity for start- ing the colt against the mare. But the talk over the Cup, the Oaks and the other races was as nothing compared to the gossip and speculation arising out of the al- leged foul by Kern in the Lorillard stakes on Tuesday and the match that might grow out of it between Dwyer Brothers’ colt, Long- street, and Mr. Haggin’s colt, Salvator. Mr. Haggin said before yesterday’s races began that the first he knew of the trouble waa when Mr. Withers came up to the timers’ stand and remarked thatit was charged that Kern had fouled the other horses, and that if such was the fact the effect would be to take the race from Salvator. Mr. Phil Dwyer, who was present, then said: Mr. Haggin, the horse was putin by you or your trainer for that purpose.’’ Mr. Haggin said that he made no reply, waiked away to learn the facts. Mr. B. A. Hagginsaid in conjunction with his father that Kern was entered in the race on the advice of the trainer to make the pace, as the colt had shown well in a trial on Sun- day morningandthe boy Brant was puton him because he had ridden well before, bad ability for riding, and was one of the best judges of pace he (Ben Ali) had ever seen. Mr. J. B. Haggin said that Isaac Murphy, whois atruthful jockey, and was back of Kern when the alleged foul wus made, remarked that he saw nothing of it. As regarded the rumored match between Sal- vatorand Longstreet, he, Mr. Haggin, had not offered to match his horse. The Dwyer Brothers were also spoken to early in the afternoon about the taiked-of match between Longstreet and Salvator. **We have not received any propositions for amatch,’’ replied Mr. M. K. Dwyer, ‘‘and I am doubtful whether any will be made, al- though as Ii said at Brighton Beach yesterday if the coits do meet I will bet that Longstreet will beat the other.“ Mr. Philip Dwyer concurred in what his brother had said regurding their having re- ceived no offer for a match, and said in addi- tion: We ure not looking fora match, and, in fact, we are not over anxious to make one. Our colt is engaged in many valuable stakes to be run between now and the end of the sea- son, and we do not care to endanger his chances. Salvator, too, is heavily engaged, and 1 doubt whether Mr. Haggin would really care to match him. But if he does we are ready for him. We are prepared to start our colt against the winner of the Lorillard stakes at any t me and for any reasonable amount of money if we are challenged by Mr. Haggin. lamvery sorry that Tuesday’s race bas resulted in any dis- sension, and I regret whatI said on that day when Itold Mr. Haggin that it looked as if Kern had been started for the purpose of pre- venting other horses from beating Salvator. Mr. Haggin is a thorough gentlemen and if he comes out with achallenge fora match we will meet him half way. „Salvator and Longstreet are bothin the Stockton stakes to be run on Saturday,’’ joined in Mr. Mike Dwyer, and if Mr. Haggin wants to beat our colt again he can start Sal- vator on that day, for, barring accidents, Longstreet will be at the post. Still the talk went on about the match and just before the horses appeared at the post for the last race Mr. Withers submitted the follow- ing to the owners of the rival colts: Match for $10,000 a side, half forteit, the association to add $2,500 ifthe race is run. To de run on July 16 or on the first race day thereafter when —* and track are good; one mile and a Alk. When this proposition was presented to the Dwyers Philip at once said that the udded amount was toosmall; it should be at least but „000. Michael remarked: The money which the association agrees to add is not large enough. Instead of $2,500 the added money should be at least $5,000, and if this amount is given we will accept the conditions proposed for the match.’’ Mr. Withers said thatit would not pay the association to give $5,000 added money, where- at Mr. Dwyer retorted: If Mr. Haggin will consent torunthis match on the Gravesend track we will agree to make the added money 10,000. Why, the extra attraction afforded y such a match is well worth the amount which we ask the Monmouth Park Asso- ciation to give for the race. If the club will give me the extra receipts on the day the match comes off, I, myself, will agree to make the added money $6,000, and I'll find a profit init at that. This, of course, broke off the match for the present. Monmouth Park Kaces. The races at Monmouth Park yesterday re- sulted as follows: First race, seven-eighths of amile.

At Sportsman’s Park yesterday the Browns and Athlet ies played a game that was remark- able for hard hitting and miserable fielding. Seward was put in to pitch for the visitors and inthe first inning through most wretched fielding on the part of the Athletics the Browns scored five runs. This angered and rattled Seward, who not only became very wild in his pitching, but in his talk as well, and used language that was disgracetul. At- ter the second inning, McMahon, the new itcher of the Athletics, was putin. The vis- tors begun to hammer King unmercifully and soon had a long lead. In the last two innings the Browns won the game, however, the final score being 13 to 12 in their favor. Stivette displaced King in the fifth inning, and while ‘a little wild was extremely swift and very ef- fective, though given miserable support. Boyle caught for the champions and Robinson for the visitors. Base hits—St. uis, 14; Athletics, 12. Errors—St. Louis, 8; Athletics, 5. Latham distinguished himself by miserabie lay. Cinciunati lost a game on its own grounds yesterday to Columbus by ascore of 7 to 4. Mays and Baldwin did the pitching and O’Connor the catching for Columbus, and the Cincinnati battery was Smith and Baldwin. Base hits—Columbus, II; Cincinnati, 6. Er- rors—Columbus, 1; Cincinnati, 3. The Baltimores lost at Kansas City yesterday by a score of 7 to 5.

Since their last appearance here the Orioles have been consid- erably strengthened, andthe team are Diay- ing atasteady gait. They broke even with the Browns in Baltimore in cheir last series, and it would not be surprising to see them lay the Browns out here. Foreman and Cunningham, the Orioles’ star pitchers,’are troublesome customers for the Browns to tackle, and either one of them will give the champions a hard time studying their deliveries. The game will be made doubly in- teresting by the appearance of Stivetts, the Browns’ fine young pitcner, in the box. Stivetts is a first ciass twirler, who improves as he advances in the Browns’ society, so to speak. Play will be called at (p. m. Latham a Lala, A little discipline oughtto prove a good tonic inthe case of Latham, whose system appears to haverun down. His exhibition of ball playing yesterday was simply disgrace- ful. Every ball he handled he made an error on, except one, and then it was no fault of his that he did not make another, for after catch- ing athrown ball and touching out a man at third he threw outrageously wild to first, a wonderful one-hand pick-u by Comiskey alone saving the third base r an error on the play. But although Latham’s fielding was very suspicious, there is a possibility it was unintentional and that he merely hada very bad off day, but there can be no question about his having intentionally struck out in the seventh inning when there w rig ay g ere two men Seward’s Foul Language. Seward, the Athletic pitcher, was guilty of conduct in yesterday’s game which should have cost him a round sum in the shape ofa fine. His fielding support was miserable in the first inning and this annoyed and rattled him, and then one of the Browns was deciared safe at first when he was out, but neither umpire happened to be watching the play. Then Seward became absolutely furious. He unquestionably had considerable provocation for losing his temper, but no provocation whatever warranted him in ripping out the oaths which he did in the presence and hear- ing of 1,000 ladies who were seated in the grand-stand. He should have been severely iscipMned by the umpire, but not a thing was doneto him. Such disgraceful language as was used by him is calculated to do more to drag down and injure the game of base bali and those engaged in it than most anything which could occur. The League and Associa- tion should resortto strenuous measures to t 2 2 to the use of such language on the Base Ball Briefs. Barnie’s Baltimores to-morrow.

CHICAGO, III., July 12.—Four thousand ver- sons witnessed a slugging match bere last night between Peter Jackson, the Australian giant, and the well-known pugilist, ‘‘Sailor’’ Brown. The fight was forthe benefit of the Braidwood miners, and the copaitions were that Jackson was to knock out Brown in six rounds. The exhibition was brutal in the extreme.. At the end of the fourth round Jackson had beaten up Brown so badly that the referee refused to allow the fight to con- tinue and awarded the victory to Jackson. There was no police interference. About $1,000 was netted for the miners. Don’t fall to attend auction sale at Terry place tb-morrow at 2 p. m. See plat in ad. page 6.

The Philadelphia stock Exchange Enlivened by a Set-To Between Brokers, By Telegrabh to the Post-DIsPaTcn. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 12.— Theo Philadel- phia Stock Exchange was enliyened yesterday afternoon byascientific set-to between the well-known brokers Wm. G. Huey, head of the firm of Wim. G. Huey & Co., and Nicholas Thouron, head of the brokers’ firm ef Thou- ron & Co. Thouron was the aggressor, but the honors rested with his muscular adver- sary, who knocked him out witha Sullivan blow onthe neck. The encounter took piace in the corridor of the Exchange, and created intense. excitement among the brokers, who are enthusiastically fond of athletic displays. It was but little past 1 o’clock when Mr. Thouron walked into the broad corridor of the second story ofthe big Drexel building, which looks from the spacious front room occupied by the Philadelphia Stock Exchange. Mr. Huey was standing in the corridor talk- ing with some of his friends. Mr. Thouron seemed to consider himself agurieved over a transaction in stocks, in which, for his al- leged unseemly interruptions during the prog- ress of business, he had incurred repeated reprimands from the authorities of the Ex- change. Broker Huey had been among those who were onthe right side of the transac- tion. Thouron approached him and entered into a heated argument ofthe merits of the dispute. Huey soon turned on his heel and walked away with the remark: ‘‘You are too obstinate; itis useless to discuss the matter with you in your present mood. Huey had taken but a few steps when Thonron overtook him. Thouron’s heavy cane touched his shoulder and Huey turned around. Anuncomplimentary and decidedly vuigar remark escaped Thouron’s lips, and his right fist shot from his shoulder, land- ing heavily on the passive broker's unguarded right eye, which raised a bump that swelled to the dimensions of awalnut. Thouron isa big, ttrong man, his weight being 210 pounds. His shoulders and chest are developed to the proportions of a prize ring combatant, Huey isabout medium height, trim built, but mus- cular. Heis49 years old, or ten years older than his assailant. Huey weighs only 169 r he is built of steel wire and he has een an athlete from his youth up. having added to his other accomplishments a dex- trous and artistic use of his fists in his gym- nastic feats. Broker Huey has been famous —— his ability to give his gloved opponents the RAZZLE-DAZZLE IN SHORT ORDER. Fora moment after receiving the blow that would have revealed the starry heavens to the eyes of an ordinary man. Huey stood aghast. Although one of the most aggressive and wide-awake members of the Exchange he is noted for his good humor and his reluctance to accept a quarrel or to indulge in anything that could reflect upon the reputation of the Philadelphia Stock Exchange, as a peaceable, quiet and inoffensive body. It suddenly occurred to Broker Huey that Nicholas Thouron had sold his seat In the Stock Exchange and was no longer a member with a right to parade the corridors and pummel members in good standing. Then Mr. Huey’s left feinted in the region of Mr. Thouron’s capacious stomach and his right landed on his burly antagonist’s jaw. ouron squar away and made a viciousrush. His lithe opponent's blows fell rapidly on jaw, chest and neck. TLouron went down from a knock-out blow under the ear. Brokers who had surrounded batants then interfered. Col. Geo. H. North, the military member of the Stock Exchange, Adjatant-General on Gen. Hartranft’s staff, removed with the assistance of another broker the discomfited aggressor in the fight, to the private office of — Jobneon of the exchange, where the big man’s injuries were. examined. Broker Huey, without as- sistance, sought a seat in the corridor, while the members ofthe Exchange clapped their hands in applause. Mr. Huey was evidently the favorite of the Exchange. His victory over the invading ex-member brought him congratulations from all sides. Both brokers live at Marion and there were rumors that the dispute would be fought out on its merits, but the conservative members ofthe Ex- change believed that the summary disposition ofthe combat would puta challenge from the defeated broker out of the question. ’ ° How he an * afl a aa See next SUNDAY’S POST- DISPATCH.
