How the Merchants’ Terminal Railway Bill Passed the Council. Maj. J. H. McNamara Secretly | ! Feld the Sealed Envelopes in Trust for Councilmen. A One-Ninth Interest in the Franchise Exchanged by a Bribed Coun- cilman for $2,200.

Tne Merchants’ Terminal bill was boodled through the Assembly. Theevidence is at hand. When the bill was pending in the Coundil the Merchants’ Ter- minal people began to despair of its passage because they became convinced that two members of the Council whose positions upon committees put them in control of the situa- tion were not disposed favorably towards it. They set about to accertain what was at the bottom ofthe antagonism. : They found out. One of the two Councilmen referred to was fighting the bill because of his allegiance to Mayor Noonan, who was opposed to it because one of its promoters was his arch enemy, Mayor David R. Francis. The reason for the opposition of the other Councilman was entirely of a pecuniary na- ture. The manner in which it was learned by the Merchants’ Terminal people was rather roundabout. Thomas Cleary, the Superin- tendentof the Poor-House, wenl to Mayor Francis, who had appointed him, and told him to teil Maj. Rainwater, who is President of the Terminal Co., thatif he wished to deal with the Councilman aforesaid’ he coul¢ do so through a certain attorney, whose is ag Seventh and Chestnut streets. The negotiations were opened. That the dicker was made there is strong evidence, and itis submitted. Both the Mercants’ Terminal projectors and the Councilman were distrustful of one an- other, and it became necessary to agree on some plan of exchange which would give equal assurance to both that they wonld not be tricked. The first point, however, was the terms upon which the Counciiman was to let go the hold he had upon the bill and work for its passage. This was easily settied. The Counciiman was to be given one-ninth inter- est in the francise. The matter of conveying this one-ninth share was the difficult point to be settled. The Councilman suggested that Maj. James H. McNamara, the architect at Third and Lo- cust streets, be given it to hold for him in trust until he had carried, out his part of the contract. This was satisfactory to the projectors ofthe Merchants’ Terminal people. Maj. McNamara was given A SEALED PACKAGE by the principal projectors of the Merchants’ Terminal, and he held that package, he ad- mits, on an understanding with some of the Councilmen. What the contents were Mr. McNamara states he does not know. He is equally ignorant, he Bays, of the agreement between the Merch- ants’ Terminal people and the Councilman or Councilmen for whom he held the package. He was simply asked to hold it until he was told to give it over to the Councilmanor to give it back to those who gave it to bim. He says he gave it back to Messers. C. C. Rainwater, S. W. Cobb, Jno. D. Perry and John H. Overall. Why he gave it back to them instead of to the Councilmen he does not know, except that they asked him for it and he surrendered it, there being no objection from the parties of the second part. When Maj, Rainwater was seen this morn- ing and asked aboutthe package which Mr. McNamara held he said he thought it must have been the contract with an attorney for legimate work in favor of the bill. f he thinks so he is mistaken. He ought to know better The character of the work which the attor- ney was to have performed and did perform for the ninth interest in the franchise is fully and completely told below and makes a most readable story. But it is not as inter- esting as the boodling scheme. Why Mr. McNamara should hold an agree- ment with an attorney fora perfectly legiti- mate piece of business was notexplained by the Merchants’ Terminal Co.’s President. He simply denied that Mr. McNamara had held any stock of the company in trust for a Ooun- cilman. The facts as the Post-DigPaTcH has discov- ered are that when the stock or agreement or whatever it was which Mr. McNamara held was returned by him to those who gave it to thatthe Councilman who was making the dicker with the proprietors of the term- inal road went to one of the incorporators and complained bitterly that he was not being dealt with squarely, and that the Merchants Terminal representative turned on him and told him flat-footed that he was a boodler, and that he had no business to talk abont square 8 Den M aln water was asked this morn- ing if he had had such a conversation with the Councilman referred to he said that he had several talks with that Councilman but he aid not 8 to tell what the nature of them The further fact is that the protestin ng Coun- cilman pro achange of plan and agreed to relinquisb hisclaims under the contract and instead of the one-ninth interest to accept a paymentin money. e received $2, WHAT MR. N NAMARA SAYS. Maj. McNamara was seen by a Post-Dis- PATCH reporter and told that the Post- — 2 had a story in which he figured unite ae, and that an explanation tom hi him of what part he really did take in the matter was desired. He asked what the story was and was told. He was not inclined to be communicative, but by direct question- ing sufficient was obtained from him to call for an explanation from other quarters. ou dont deny, Mr. McNamara,’’ —— the revorter, after doubt as to the co _— — tea had been called inte 4 you hela a one-ninth of the Term inal fA age. „ was in that package!“ **] don’t know.“ **I never said it was Mr. ——, it was held by me on an und Council. ’’ ‘*What was that understanding?’ „bid you give that package to th be 8 you give e members of the Counell by wh ent with the Merchants’ Terminal le A say you held wag? hough in ignorance we t the e o, Lad not... “Who I you give Maer gave it to me, Maj. aj.

McNamara, then, did not hold your stock at any time?’’ Never. Maj. Rainwater suggested that the pack age may have been the company’s contract with you.“ No, it was not. Ihad nothing to do with any package at all. Another Ninth Interest. The abrupt corners in the labyrinth of legis- lation at the City Hall hide some very won- drous sights from view, but as one proceeds they are disclosed, and they always command interest. A prominent attorney who was seen to-day in connection withacertain story consented to tell of an episode on condition thas his name should be withheld. ‘*Ido not like to be mixed up in matters of this kind, he said, for I don’t wish people to connect my name with such revelations as the Post- DISPATCH is now making. But keep my name out and you can have the story. ‘*‘Noonan was a candidate for the Mayoralty nomination five years ago and had togiye way to Francis Noonan didn’t like it and since then Francis and he have been bitter en- emies. * „Phil Rohan was elected to the Council. Noonan is the man who nominated him. Rohan’s friendship for Noonan was very great and he would then do almost anything if Noonan requested it. „Wen the Merchants Terminal bill! was in the Counell. Noonan saw his chance to get even with Francis and took it. He asked Rohan to oppose it and Rohan fought it at every point, happened to bold the balance of ower and hung the bill up straight along. The Merchants“ Terminal people saw him sad tried to get him over to their side, but they found it absolutely impossible to ‘move him an inch. He wouldn't give way. That was the situatiun, and fit sim ly meant that unless Mayor Noonan’s 1 on could be removed the bill would right there. „Then Rainwater and Overall came to see me and wanted me to see what I could do with Noonan. They offered me a contract by which I was to receive a one-ninth interest in the stock and, I think, a one-ninth interest in the profits of the first year including what was made out of real estate speculations. Those were about the terms; I don’t remember them exactly, but I 2 — over the contract, con- cluded that it was worth nothing and saidso.

A Chapter Coneerning an Amendment Which Was Made for Money. The expose of the method by which the route of the Elevated road was changed from Lucas avenueto Morgan street, in yes- terday’s Post-DIsPaTcH, told another inter- esting chapter in the tale of boodle. When the Lucas avenue property owners found that the road would run out their street they rotested, but protests eountedfor naught. hey Id a meeting in the office of Mr. Pat- rick Burns, and it was attended by one of the incorporators of the Lcompany, who had in the past held a public position, who plainly told the property owners that the com- pany would consent to a change of route for a contribution of ‘ Ed Butler dropped in, called Burns to one side and said that it would take a purse of $10,000 to secure the change.

Burns, T.

Thomas Dunn and a North Broadway clothier drove around one morning in a buggy obtaining subscrip- tions. Bike he money was collected and paid to the rator and then the L company ¢on- — to change the route from Imcas avenue to Morgan street. The Tom Scott of Bang a, . Brid- | get’s Church on condition that Warn with -Counéltmen 8 induce him to withdraw his opposition to the bill, was one of the strangest features of the his- tory of that very strange bill. Mr. Comfort says the offer was made purely out of kindness of heart. Mr. Scott says that Father Walsh had heard of his generosity to the church in Kansas Oity tbrough Fathers Donnelly and Couls of that city, and hinted at it so strongly that he promised $1,000 to the church in case he suc- ceeded. In reply to this Father Walsh lately made the following statement: In reference tothe twoclergymen, Fathers Donnelly and Couls, mentioned by Mr. Tom Scott in yesterday’s interview in the Post: DISPATCH, as having recommended Mr. Scott’s liberality to me, i have this to say: Father Donnelly is dead some ten years. 0 never spoke of Mr. Scott to me dead or alive. Father Couls I never saw, and could not, therefore, have heard of Mr. Scott from him. This will dispose of the reason assigned by Mr. Scott for offering me $1,000 In relation to his scheme of an elevated railroad in St. Louls. Mr. Scott himself may have introduced the names of these gentlemen, but of this 1 have no recollection. I never thought that Mr. Scott expected to influence me by a direct bribe, and I so atated to all who spoke to me on the subject, but regarded it as an attempt to catch a bird with chaff.’’ Dr. J. J. Kane called at the Pos t-DIsPaATCH office to-day to say that Mr. Degnan, Mr. Burnes’ former partner, was the one who told him that he and Mr. Burns had subecribed to the Lucas avenue fund, not Mr. Burns and Mr. Gauss.

The Burlingten Sends Out Figures From Chicago te Northwest Points. MILWAUKEE, Wis., Jan. 4.—Passenger rates to the Northwest willbe reduced next Tues- day, January 7, to correspond with the East- bound cut rate inaugurated last Wednesday. The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul and isconsin they will apply the cut rate west-bound on the date — in order to mest the rate of the Chicago, B lington & Quincy, which line is res nsible for this phase o the passenger war. he Chi- cago, Burlington & Quincy is a member of the Presidents’ Association, and the fact that a line bound by the ‘*gentlemen’ 8 Agreement has begun a slashing of rates will cause some complications. General Passenger Agent Eustis sent out a notice from Chicago to all interested lines this morning, announcing that on the 7th the Burlington will put into effect the following limited rates: From Oh! cago to St. Paul and Minneapolis, first class, $9; second class, $7; points north of the two points mentioned above being proportiona)ly affected. Ihle notice is sent you at 9:80 o’clock in order that you may bave ample time to take like action if you see fit.”’ The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul at once gave notice of a similar reduction, making the $9 and $7 rates apply from Milwaukee as well as from Chicago to st. Paul. Unless the whole rate war fizzies out and comes to an unexpected end the cut is certain to extend to Wisconsin River points within a few day. The Municipal Alliance. TOPEKA, Kan., Jan. 4.—Last night the at- torneys for the Municipal Alliance, composed of Kansas holders of Chicago, Kansas & Nebraska railroad stock, filed their cross bill with the clerk of the United States Circuit Court. This bill was ordered by Judge Brewer to be filed some time ago, but the time was extended. The cross bill covers the points raised in the petition presented to Judge Brewer by the attorneys of the alliance, and sets up that to allow the Mercantile Trust Co of hentucky to foreclose the — * holds would render wortbiess th worth of bonds issued by the municipalities which received in payment the railroad stock.

The mo conservative reed that the result is very much in doubt, and that the probabilities favor the election of parts of both tickets.

A SCATTERING OF PIES. A Delivery Wagon Kunaway Causes a Lively Time on Pine Street. This morning as One of Busch’s pie wagons was passing along Pine street near Seven- eenth the horse became frightened and start- ed to run. The driver was unable to hold him and when the runaway reached Twenty- second street the wagon struck a tree, throw- ing the driver out on his head and rendering him unconsious. He was taken to Dr. Prewitt’s office, where it was found that two long scalp wounds had beén inflicted but no bones were broken. The man’s wounds were dressed and he was taken to hie home, The wagon had just started out on its morn- ing round, and it was full of nice pies. At the first jump which the horse took out shot a half dozen assorted pies, which were rescued from the street by gamins. At every swerve of the wagon pies were liberally distributed along the pavement and the street was almost immediately swarming with a crowd of ragged and tattered searchers after pie. The mud went with the pie. There was no use trying to separate them, and the whole masse was boited without any interruption. The hungry pie-eaters swooped down onthe track taken by the wagun like a flock of buz- zards or a pack of wolves, Such a treat they never had before. The wagon was not broken to any extent and the horse was unharmed. The driver's inju- riés are not serious. WAIVED EXAMINATION. Wm. P. Gleason Held to Answer Before the Next Grand-juary.

Mr. Chandler smiled when approached on the subject of his candidacy, and while he was not doing anything in the matter just now he was free to state he was a candi- cate for senatorial honors an@expected to be | successful. The recent declarations made by him in Missouri he stood by, and was not aisposed to change them in any way. The presence and the gossip regarding Mr. Chandler’s candidacy does not appear to alarm Senator Vest and his Missouri friends here. Those of the latter who have until recently been employed in the Demo- cratic House, and who have gone back to Missouri, will bend their energies for Vest. When asked as to the opposi- tion to the Senator they had no | fears. Senator Vest is just now busy looking after he St. Louis World Fair interests and ‘the Kansas City public building bills. He will endeavor to have a favorable report made by the committee on the latter proposition early another week. Congressman Tarsney is co- operating with the Senator in the work and for the present will give ithis undivided atten- tion. The amount asked for in the billis $2,500,000, which is expected to pay forthe square of ground necessary and the building. The Department of Justice this morning received another lot of papers in favor of J. J. Elliott of Kansas City for the Western District Marshalship. It is not believed that Mr. Elliott’s candidacy will effect Col. Tracy’s appointment to the place. The Tariff Hearing. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 4.—The hearing before the Committee of Ways and Means was opened this morning with an argument by Mr. Edmund Whitman of Boston in favor of the removal of the duty on flax. The resent rates, he said, had now been in force nineteen years, and yet the product of flax in this country had steadily decreased. It was practically a non-existent industry. Its culture required too much arduous manual labor and technical skill. The product had fallen off from 27, 000, 000 pounds in 1860 to 5,000,000 pounds in 1870, and to-day it was 850 insignificant that no one could tell what it was. The duty was therefore a burden to the linen man- ufacturers without being ee to the farmer. The importation of linen goods had increased four told since the duty was placed on flax, the amount in value tn 1888 being $16,500,000. Much of this linen might be made in this country, but forthe duty on flax. He argued, therefore, that the duties should be removed from all grades of flax, dressed and undressed. In reply to questions by Mr. Oarlisie, the Witness said that the only flax goods made in this country were twines and the coarsest kinds of towels; that about ten million of capital was invested in the business here; that it had practically no competition from abroad, and that fine linens were not made here. There was no reason, therefore, why the duty on flax should not be removed. The Chairman: ‘‘If you had free flax would you want any protection for the goods that you manufacture?’’ The witneds: I do not think I would ask any duty on our products. The Chairman: ‘‘You would not advise any reduction of the present duties?’’ Witness: ‘‘No, I think not.’’ The next statement was made by Mr. Ander- son of Maine, a manufacturer of fancy cassi- meres, broadcioth,:etc. He argued in favor of a restoration of the duties on such goods to about where they stood prior tothe change made in the tariff law of 1883 and in opposi- tion to the removal of the duties on wool. In reply to questions by Mr. Carlisle, the witness said that he did not want the rates which were increased by the tariff of 1883 re- duced to what they had been, but that he wanted the rates which had been reduced put up to what they had been. A petition from flax hacklers of Paterson, N. J., in favor of the duties on flax, was pre- sented by the Chairman, and one from Phila- delphia signed by a large number of persons asking for free raw materials was presented by Mr. Carlisle. The next statement was made by Mr. J. R. Turner, Jr., of Boston, President of the Flax and Hemp Spinners’ Association. He com- plained that his business had not the same degree of protection as other § indus- tries had, and that consequently, on many lines of gooas, competition with foreign countries could not be kept up. He argued in favor of an increase of duties on ,8ome grades of linen goods, so that there might be home production and a home market, and of the reten- tion of the present duty of $5 a ton on flax straw and 320 a ton on dressed Hax. He asked for a duty of 3 cents a pound 4 all linen coarser than 1,600, with an ad- tional rate of 50 per cent ad valorem, instead of the present rate of 35 per cent ad valorem. Collectiag Unpaid Customs Duties. WASHINGTON, D.

Judge Brewer in Washington. WASHINGTON, D. O., Jan. 4.—Judge Brewer, ly appointed Associate Justice of the me Court, called at the Department of to-day and banded in his resignation | ing of a Dress Suit. In Judge Ryan’s court yesterday a strange case was tried. Percy H. Levin brought suit against L. R. Wilson, a tailor at 917 Olive street, to recover possession of a dress sult which he alleged Wilson retained awful. The facts as produced in the court are sub- stantially as follows: Levin had a dress sult made by Wilson, for which he paid the tallor $50, He became temporarily embarrassed and pawned the suit, obtaining on it the sum of $9. When the time came for him to redeem the suit he was unable to do so, and he went to Wilson, the tailor who made the or and explained the circumstances, Wilson paid the pawnbroker $9.60, the 60 cents being the in- terest, and took the suit out, retaining it iu his possession. Pretty soon affairs became smoother with young Levin and be called on Wilson and handed him a $10 bill, requesting in return his dresa-suit. It appears that Wilson had 4 bill for some other clothing which he bad made for Levin, the amount being $41.60. He said he would credit Levin with the $10 on the bill, but would not return the dress suit until the balance of $31.60 was aid. Levin wanted his dress suit, and there- tore brought the suit to recover it. He placed the value of the suit at $50, as he had never worn it but on one occasion. Wilson took the stand and swore that the suit was not worth more than » a8 it had been worn. His clerk also testified to the same, but Judge Ryan thought differently. He decided that the sult was worth $50, and told the tailor he would have to re- turn it, but that Levin would have to pay his ther bill. Wilson admitted that the suit had eft his possession, whereon Judge Ryan de- ducted the balance due Wilson, Hi. e, from the value of the suit, $50, and gave judgment against Wilson for the balance, $18.40, which sum he ordered paid to Levin.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Jan. 4.—This is the sixth day of the strike of all employes on the Mackey system here, except the engineers and firemen, causing a complete tie-up. The strikers claim that eight men,chiefly conduct- ors, have been relieved by Master of Trans- portation Hurd because of their connection with a recent strike, and they demand bis im- mediate suspension and the reinstatement of the discharged men. President Mackey re- fuses to suspend Mr. Hurd, but offers to take up the cases of the discharged men, who he claims were removed for cause, chiefly drunk- enness, and personally investigate them, and if the men have deen harshiy dealt with to reinstate them. The strikers have possession of the company’s property and prevented trains from being run on the first day of the strike by pulling the link and pins and ordering the engineer and fireman out ot their cab. Since that time no attempt has been made to get out trains, al- though the company has imported men from St. Louis to take the strikers’ places. This morning one of the new men was clubbed and violence is feared ifthe company attempts to et out trains. The company charges the ayor with failure to furnish policemen to clear the property of trespassers and claims that the trains would be handled if this was done. A large number of factories are un- able to run because of the strixe. President of the Window Glass- Workers.

The official count is not to be made until to-night, but the returns have all been received and enough leaked out to war- rant the statement that Mr. Morenus is elected. This has been the hottest contest that has t ayy in the history of the organ- ever taken ization, and it is the first time that a non-resi- dent of Pittsburg nas been elevated to the position.

DEXTER TURNER DISCHARGED, He Explains the Standing of His Insurance Company in Iowa. MITCHELL, 8. D., Jan. 4.—Dexter Turner, General Agent of the now much-talked of Citizens’ Life Association of Cherokee, Io., who was arrested Thursday on a telegram from Sheriff Huffman of Bradley County, was discharged yesterday on receipt of a telegram from the same official. Turner was interviewed yesterday afternoon, and in response to a request that he give his side of the case be- tween himself and State Auditor Taylor, said: **I have been General Agent of the Citizens’ Life Association forfour years. During that time I have had the fullest assurance from its officers that all insurance laws in the Territory and State have been complied. That there might not be even a possibility of a mistake, I wrote a letter to Territorial Auditor Ward in the spring of 1887 asking for the law on such companies as I represented, and he replied that the law was silent regarding mutual life insurance companies. Believing from the first that my company was legally in the State and was prepared to stay in, I have worked earnestly and with a good degree of success. That I have at any time employed misrepresentations, or shyster methods, positively and absolutely deny. Charges to that effect printed in the Sioux Falls Press, Omaha Beeand other papers iast week as coming from Taylor are most unmitigated falsehoods.’’ FIFTY The kind of winters St. Louis has had for the last half cen - YEARS tury.

This morning Wm. H. Wade, Representa- tive from the Thirteenth Missouri Con. gressional District, arrived in the city and régistered at the Laclede. Mr. Wade is on his way to Washington, and is accompanied by his son. I will leave for Washington to- night, sald Mr. Wade, and as 1 have re- ce@ed an invitation from the World's Fair Committee to accompany the delegation, will probably do so.’’ „Are you interested in the contest for the St. Louis Postmastership?’’ Not at all, but Lean tell you who will re- ceive the appointment. Schuarte is the man. He would have been appointed some time ago had it not been for the appearance of his famous interview. This set him back very seriously, and it is stated on good authority that Noble, who detfore that time had not been unfavorable to him, said that he could not support him any longer. Advices from Washington are now to the effect that Noble has agreed to advocate Schuarte’s claims, or at least to refrain from active opposition. THE SCHUARTE INTERVIEW DENIED. Ilearn from an exceedingly reliabie source that Schuarte wrote to Gov. denying the statements attributed to him in toto, and that this denial bas insured his ap- pointment. Idonot believe it willbe made on Monday next, as that is not post-office day, but it may be looked for some time next week. Ofcourse if Schuarte could be proved to have made the statements attributed to him that would alter the situation, but unless this is done his appointment is about certain, By the way, let me introduce you to Mr. Tracy of my town, who will be the next United States Marshal for the Western District of Missouri. Mr. Tracy goesto Washington to- night and wil) recive his commission before the end of next week. Mr. Wade spent a reat part of the day at the World’s Fair eadquarters,and will leave this evening with the Washington delegation. What Central Committeeman Carroll Says. State Central Committeeman James H. Gar- roll is in the city to-day and will probably go to Washington withthe St. Louls delegation to present the claims of this city as a site for the World’s Fair. It had been intimated by the butchers that Mr. Carroll was the man who handled their boodle and promised to get their meat inspection bill through the ‘Legislature and after it had passed the House he left the State capital when it came before the Senate, and it was defeated there. Mr. Carroll pronounces the whole story rot. He — e thought the bill a good one and favored it, and when asked his opinion of it by any one stated that he be- lieved it to bea good measure. He denies having ever received any money or being offered any to get the bill through, and states that he never promised or said that he would have it pass either the House or Senate. As he had no power to get it through either body it would be absurd, he says, to have made such a pledge. Mr. Car- roll asserts further that he never offered to heve the bill passed for any stipulated sum, and never spoke nor was spoken to about money in connection witb the measure. No opponent of the bill ever approached him to have him oppose the bill. He went to New York when the bill came before the Senate because the Wash- ington centennial celebration took place there at that time, and he had been making preparations for six months to attend it. He was under no pledge toremain here to look after the measure. In short, Mr. Carroll makes acomplete denialof allthe charges made against him in connection with the matter. The Postmastership Caucus. A caucus of the three St. Louis Congress men was held this morning at the office of Congressman Kinsey to agree upon a candi- date for Postmaster. The attempt proved futile, however, as each of the Congressmen clung to bis favorite for the position. George Bain was the first choice of one and appeared to be the second choice of the othertwo. Congressman Kinsey expressed himself as willing to indorse Mr. Bain if con- vinced that his own choice for the place, Maj. Pearce, could not secure the appointment, Congressman Niedringhaus, however, clung to llley. He insisted that his man was not out of the race and refused to believe the assertions of his fellow Congressmen that the ‘‘Ole Man’’ had no show forthe appointment. Mr. Niedringhaus said, however, that he would be willing to support Bain if Filley was out of the race. The caucus finally adjourned, with Congressman Niedrinchaus still believing that Filley was the coming man, and thejthree mam bers of the House of Representatives as far away as ever from any agreement upon a candidate for the position of Postmaster. HE DID NOT KISS HER, But He Did Hug and Squeeze Her Awfully Tight. Miss Emma Smith, the young lady employed atthe Boston Laundry at No. 8 North Four- teenth street, who had the young man giving the name of Mac L. Campbell arrested for at- tempting to kiss her on Fourteenth and Chestnut streets last Saturday night, defended herself, it appears, with a piece of telegraph wire, which she brought down on ber assail- ant’s face. „He did not succeed in kissing me, Miss Smith remarked this morning, discussing the assault, ‘‘but he would have had I not used this piece of wire on him. He gave me a pretty tight hug, though. It was about 10 o’clock at night and Ihad just closed the laundry and was going home. Just as 1 was crossing the street at the corner of Fourteenth and Chestnut streets this man grabbed me from behind. He threw his arms about me and hugged me very tight. Then he attempted to kiss me, but I struck him in the face with this iece of wire, which I had in my hand, and he et go of me and rubbed his face. He came at me again, but 1 kept hitting bim with the wire. He made several attempts to kiss me, but Ikeptdefending myself. I suppose we must have struggied there for fully ten minutes.

I told them that if that was the case he could afford all the better to pay a good- sized fine. One of his lawyers said he would advance him $50 to get him out of the trouble. I suppose that was intended as an offer to me, but I did not accept it, but told him : I WAS DETERMINED TO PROSECUTE.’ „How did you come to have the piece of wire which you used as a cowhide?’’ „Well, I Bad heard so much about girls I had heard so much about girls with men on the streets at night that I thought I had better get some- thing to defend m —.

The Rivalary Between Factions in the Mechanics’ Exchange Over the Election. | There is a good deal of interest being man!i- fested by members of the Mechanics’ Exchange in the coming election for officers. The can- didates thus far mentioned for the office of president are, the present incumbent, Wm. A. Rutter, Patrick McGrath, Jas. L. Guedry and Thos. J. Kelley. It bas never been the cus- tom to re-elect a president, but many of the members have openly expressed the opinion that on this occasion the precedent should be disregarded and Mr. Rutter again chosen for the reason that he was the originator of the building movement pow in progress and ought to main at the head of the Exchange until he could see the completion of his scheme. Mr. Rutter himself is not anxious to serve again, and believes that he could render as much assistance to the puilding movement as a member as he could as presiding officer, and says that he would do so, but should the Ex- change consider that it was to its best inter- ests to have him serve as its presiding officer until the realization of the scheme which he suggested to erect a fine new ex- change was brought about he would probably not decline. Many of the members, however, are of the opinion that as the presidency has never been given to any man twice consecutively that it would not do to make an exception in Mr. Rutter’s case and consequently they are proposing other names. Those most prominently men- tioned are Patrick McGrath, James L. Guedry and Thos. J. Kelly. All of these gentlemen are old members of the Exchange and any one of them would make a most capable officer. The nominations will take place on January wi at which an opposition ticket will be placed in the feld. The election will take place on January 1. No member will be allowed to vote who has not paid up hisdues. A dinner will be served in the Exchange at noon on election day. There will be a meeting of the Board of Directors Monday.

UHLMANN, Directors. — LA GRIPPE Is HEBE. The Physicians Convinced of the Presence of the Disease—The Symptoms, The physicians are finally convinced that la grippe, the Russian influenza, has reached St. Louis. H. Martin Willlams, the politician, is just recovering from a severe attack - Dr. W. F. Kier has several cases on band, and several other physicians also report cases in different parts of the city. It isby no means epidemic as yet, but the weather is calculated to assist it materially in that direction. Reports from Jefferson City are that the people of that city are also experiencing an attack. La grippe comes on very much the same as a cold, and is marked by a heavy headache, pain in the eyes, soreness of the body, in the back. and muscles loss of appetite and a feeling of general lassitude. Then follows a watering at the eyes and nose and a somewhat vigorous sneezing. In cough- ing the sensation is as if the head was about to burstopen. The attack lasts three to ten daysand, while a person with proper care may not be in any — danger, he is about as thoroughly uncomfortable as he could be. A Young Wife Suicide.

She leaves a husband and A children. The cause of her suicide is not nown. MAKING HAIRPINS. Hew Those Useful Articles of Woman's Toilet Are Manufactured. Hairpins that bear a French label on the package, as well as those having an American label, are nearly, if not quite, all manufact- ured at Birmingham, England. A hairpin manufactory is a very interesting place to spend a pleasant half hour. The hairpin isa very small article, yet it forms an important article of commerce, and a great deal of com- plicated and costly machinery is used to turn them out in sufficient quantities to meet the ever-increasing demends of an advancing civ- ilization. In a hairpin manufactory on the ground floor are situated the engine, boiler and japanning rooms. Ascending to the second floor, there is found all the machinery used in cutting, pointing, bending, crimping and the hairpin. The material of which hairpins are usually made is steel wire. This comes to the hairpin manufactory wound around immense spools. These are placed in a machine that draws off the wire, straightens and cuts it into the re- — lengths, each of these lengths ropping into a box the, proper size, to pre- vent their lying at right angles to each other, anda 1 shake given the box causes them all to lie parallel. In front of this box and just below itis a solid wheel,the periphery of which is grooved parallel with the axis. These grooves are just the size of the wire, and the face of the whee! is ofa size to allow the straight wires to jut overatrifie at each end. As this wheel re- volves it receives the wires at the top, and as the wheel slowly revolves it carries the wires with it. Ontheside that they would fall off by force of gravity they are tigbely held in place by a belt similar toa siack-belt tight- ener, which is often used on short belts. While being held in place by this belt they are also ground on their projecting ends to the required sbape by two small grindstones, set at an angle that will properly point them. Now as the wheel further revolves the wires drop off and fall into a box made just the length to receive them. It is during the work- ing of this machine that a noise which much resembles a duet played on the Scotch bag- ipes is evolved. The wires are now ready or the next machine, which is called a bender. This machine has a steel box with a slanting bottom. At the bottom of the slant is a longitudinal aperture of sufficient size to allow the wires to fall out one at a time. They fall between two plates of hardened steel, at the bottomof which works a steel rod finely — ap on the end. It slides back just far enough to allow of one wire ata time to fall through the steel plates and is then driven forward through a small hole in a plate of hardened steel, conveying the double- 1 piece of steel wire with it and bend - ng it into the proper shape ofa hairpin. Some have to becrimped, and these are passed between a set of steel jawe that closes on them one at a time and crimps them for a portion of = length on each prong into a waved out- ine. They are now ready to receive their first coat of japan. On being taken tothe ground floor, about half a bushel is placed in a large crock, known by the name of a jowl, and two table- A of the japan is poured on them and then they are stirred and worked around in the jowl until each separate hairpin has ived a complete coating of ja taken out of the Work. a the o through a process 8 This osaciets of getting each one 9 — a a Wire. The next operation is to weig and pack them in small labeled for the retail trade. The A tion consists of putting them in | and 1 them in large f to all parts of the world.

Yorn, = bling houses had all been closed at once | indicates a severance of those pleasant ' yelations between the law breakers and the guardians of the law which constitute a peculiar feature of municipal govern- ment in this country. Tux distinction between offering a priest $1,000 for himself or his church to withdraw his opposition to the elevated lroad bill and offering him the same mount in case the bill passes is more mice than substantial. It seems to be atisfactory, however, to Col. SCoTT and Councilman COMFORT. Tux first installment of RIDER HAddAR's test novel, Beatrice, will be pub- 4 — in to-morrow’s SuNDAY Posr-DIS- . raren. The beginning of the story is not only deeply interesting but it is naturally bene to an understanding of whet | » . The , of on | writer and the reading public generally will miss a rare treat and a remarkable piece of imaginative work if they fail to read this masterpiece of Mr. HAGGARD. UNFORTUNATE, OR WHAT? Councilman COMFORT appears to be an unfortunate and much maligned man. He seems to be misunderstood with re- markable frequency. Motives which We never dreamed of are imputed to him, and he is under the repeated necessity of making plausible explanations of his own conduct and of situations in which he has placed himself and which he declares have been entirely misconstrued by others. Councilman Corn; for instance, was under the impression that Councilman Com¥rortT had made an improper offer to him with reference toacertain measure in the Council in order to obtain his vote for a measure in which Councilman Com- FORT was interested. Councilman COLE was sure that Councilman COMFORT’S proposition was improper, but the latter explains that Councilman COLE was en- tirely mistaken, and that the conversa- tion was accidental and innocent. Now comes Father WaLsu, who declares that Councilman COMFORT called at his residence with Col. Tom Scorr and ina conversation in which he was urged to withdraw his opposition to the elevated railroad bill Col. Scott offered him $1,000 todoso. Heis sure that this offer was made for the definite purpose of inducing him to withdraw his opposition, that Mr. COMFORT was present sitting on the sofa with Cal. Scorr and that COMFORT ap- parently acquiesced in the proposition. Again Councilman COMFORT rises to an explanatory emergency and declares that Father WaLSsU, to put it mildly, is mis- taken. He says that the call was a friendly one and after a pleasant conversation, when he was leaving and had reached the hall, Col. Scorr, in a spirit of generosity and outof the kindness of his heart,’’ offered to give Father WALSIEH $1,000 for his church. The Councilman is sure of the motive of Col. Scorr, and of the fact that his offer was made solely in the interest of religion. He also claims that his motive in supporting the Branham gas bill was misunderstood. It is passing strange that intelligentand honest men should so misunderstand and wrong|Councilman COMFORT. The conclu- sion is inevitable that the Councilman is unfortunate, or that he is exceedingly foolish to allow himself to be placed in such compromising situations or that—but why pursue the unpleasant subject tur- ther? ee — — ON of the first questions which will be taken up and settled by Congress on its reassembling next week will be the loca- tion of the World’s Fair. The open time of the World’s Fair guessing-contest of the SuNDsy Post-DispaTcu will certainly be very short. The golden opportunity, because it is the only one assured, to com - pete for the prize will be offered in to- morrow’s SUNDAY PosT-DISPATCH. _————————o — -——_—-—- THE Republican branch of the Montana Legislature has elected T.

Judge Peters of Mt. Sterling and the late Jefferson Dayis were class-mates for two years at Transylvania. The Judge hae set down some recoliections of the Southern statesman, though itis more thau sixty-five years since they saw each other. He says: „When I was with him he was a good student, always prepared with his lessons, very respectful and polite to the president and professors. I never heard him repri- manded for neglecting his studies or for mis- conduct of any sort during his stay at the univetsity. He was amiable, prudent, and kind to all with whom he was associated, and beloved by teachers and students. He was rather taciturn in disposition. He was of good form, indicating a good constitution; attractive in appearance, a well-shaped bead, and of manly bearing, especissiy for one of his age. He did not often engage in the sport of the students, which was playing at foot- ball, perhaps because he did not choose to lose the time from from his studies.

Ballot reform is comiug to the whole coun- try and it is coming to stay. The Opposition to Brice. From the New York WORLD. The fight against Millionaire Brice is not based solely upon the qvestion of residence. Mr. Brice is opposed by Democrats who have some regard for the reputation of their party, upon the ground that he is claiming the Sena- torship as a reward for money advanced. He is opposed because be has no qualifications for a Senator, and because as a monopolist, a railroad manipulator and a promoter of trusts he is not a sound representative of Democracy. He is eimply a boodler. No Voice for the Victim. From the Indianapolis News. The Ways and Means Committee is hearing testimony about the tariff. The testimony is from those who are benefited by the tariff. The remainder of the 65,000,000 people, who get none of the benefit but have to pay the tax, are not heard. Is this Republican reform?

How He Was Persecuted by the Star—The Story of Miss Hernden’s Proposed Elope- ment Reiterated—A Difference Which Resulted in Reid and His Bride Suddenly Leaving the Company—tTheir Departure for Chicago and Pines for the Fature. AL REID and his newly wedded wife, nee Bertha Belle West- brook of this city, have left the Aanes Hern- don Co. They stood not on the order fof their going but went at onee. Their sud- den departure, which occurred while the company was playing at St. Joseph, was the result of another row whieh occurred be- tween Reld, Miss Herndon and her hus- band, Joe Jessell. It appears that Reid per- sioted in his statement that Miss Herndon was crazily in love with bim and desired him to elope with her but that he firmly re- sisted all overtures and would not fly, even with the dagzling ineentive of the proprietor- ship of a $65,000 bank account and $5,000 worth of diamonds, to say nothing of the charming actress herself. The continued reiteration of this story, so itis said, caused the trouble which resulted in the sudden departure of Reid and his bride to Chicago. It is only just to say that the story which has been published is only one side and that the other also has a story. The following was told toa reporter of the St. Joseph Gazette as REID'S STORY. „Ot our marriage I have made a complete statement; suffice it to say that it was a love affair, pure and simple, and that we were lovingly, honorably and carefully married on last Sunday afternoon. After having returned from the Methodist parsonage, my wife and I were summoned | to Miss Herndon’s dreasing- room in the Warder-Gran pera-honse, Kan- sas City.

A Minister’s * Belief in the Efficaey of Prayer to Heal His Child, By Telegravh to the Post-Disratca. ATTLEBORO, Mass., Jan. 4.—A 17-year-old girl lies at the point of death in her father’s house in this town. She is sick with malig- nant typhoid fever, and for fourteen days the young sufferer has tossed nervously on her couch unable to sleep or eat, or at times to speak. To increase her misery an abscess has formed on her side. She is slowly but surely dying—dying for the want of medicine—and medicine she cannot have because her father, the Rey. G. R. Penny, trusts in God to drive away the terrible disease. He believes that prayer and annointing with oll are more e cacious than drugs, and he means to let the disease run its length. The town, of course, is carried away with indignation over what the citizens claim a casé of absolute cruelty. The Selectmen con- sidered the advisability of taking the case into their hands, but decided they had no jurisdiction. Ifthe father of the sick child choose to treat her by the faith eure, that was a privilege the law could not interfere with. Doctors without number have offered their services free of charge, but only to have them refused. The Mr. Penny says © has been cur faith divers times and instaneed a . r of cases of a similar character which had come under his observation.

In fact it would take pages of the paper to print the list, even in the most coudensed form. The list given will show the variety of guesses re- celved. It should also be a hint to readers of the Sunpay Post-DISPATCH to lose no time in filing thelr bianks, for, as often stated, time counts greatly in the guessing mateh. Your guess may be al right, It may be one of the nearest to actual vote in Congress. But, if somebody less tardy bappens to have filed a guess of the same kind, he gets the prize. The rule is that the prize goes to the correct guess that first arrives at this office. 4 HINT TO GUESSERS. The result of the publication of the partial list of guessers to-morrow is sure to cause a great rush on Monday. The guesses will arrive by hundreds. It is not safe to allow this great influx to get ahead of you. If you are wise you will see that this afternoon or very early to-morrow you mall, send or bring tothis office at least one guess, which can be filled away ahead of the big Sun- day rush. If you do not remember all the terma, get a SUNDAY PoOsT- DISPATCH at this of- fice, and you will find them all. Then, when you get your SUNDAY Post-DISPATCH to-mor- row, cut out the official blank and file another guess, and take another chance at the prises aggreguting $100. In this way you will have forestalied the rush on the first place, and will have come in with it on the second. You will also have filed guesses contain ing different figures, which will give you room to hedge. The vote in Congress is a dif- ficult thing to hit.wYou cannot expect to do it on one blank. Try several and take no chances. The prizes are well worth winning. They are printed below, for the benefit of those who wish totake the advice above and get ahead of the Sunday rush, which is eure to occur. THE FOUR PRIZES.

Every Morning From 10 to 11 O’Clock, Com- mencing Monday Morning, January 6, Public Healing of the Sick Free of Charge. Dr. Evans, the distinguished magnetic physician, who is located at the Lindell Hotel, has per- formed so many remarkable cures during the past two months that his professional business has grown to such an overwhelming degree that he found h impossible to attend to it alone. He has, therefore, found it absolutely necessary to call to his aid assistance. The Doctor takes pleasure in announcing to his many friends and patrons that his old partner, Dr. F. B. Smith of New York, will be associated with him in the future. The Déctors have engaged Pope’s Theater, and will reopen it to the public Monday morning, January 6, where they will publicly heal the sick free of charge every morning from 10 to 11 o’eloek for about four weeks. The doctors will give a short and interesting lecture every morning, after which the hour will be devoted to giving practical demonstrations of their wonderful magnetic power over disease. All manner of curable diseases will de treated and cured upon the stage before the audience. The rich and poor are cordially invited to attend. The strange and mysterious power which these men possess over nearly all forms of dise: se is not easily explained. But the sense of seeing can not be denied. Scores of helpless invalids who have hitherto failed to find relief will be cured without money and without price, Do not let your good judgment be governed by prejudice, but go and be made well. These exhibitions will amuse the mirthful. astonish the skeptical, and set the serious to thinking. The Doetors are located at the Lindell Hotel, where those who are able and willing to pay may go from 9 8. m until 7 p.m.daily. Admission to Pope's Theater free. Consultation at the hotel also free.

The demand for stocks was 80 urgent dur- ng the first few minutes’ trading that everything traded in was forced u sm fractions fur- ther ona compafativeiy large business, but the only important upward movement was in Colorado Coai, which spurted up sharply. and at was aue better than last night's closing figures. The trusts, with the exception of Sugar, were firm with the regular list and Sugar developed marked weakness and dropped from 59 to57% against poe. Prices re- acted from the highest point toward middie of the hour, but the demand was renewed later and many stocks reached still higher figures and even Sugar rexained the greater portion of its loss. At 11 o’clock the market was still fairly active and strong at the best prices reached. money has been easy at from 3 to 4 per cent, clos- ing at 3.

MESSRS. DAY AND ROGERS CONTINUETHEIR BLUFFING TACTICS. All Poll- Rooms Closed Tight in New York— President Cabanne and the Pastime Club Resign From the Western Association of Amateur Athletes—The Foot- Ball Troub- le Patched Up—Sporting News. By Telegravh to the Post-DisratTcu. ’ — EWTORR, Jan. 2 4. — President 9 John B. Day of the of m New York League Ig N Club said yesterday i 0 ) that there was no truth 9 1 in the statement that 2! Connor had refused to sign a League con- tract. Mr. Day says that he never asked the big first baseman toafix his signature toa document. They talked over the matter ina casual way, and We Connor never made use of the assertion credited to him. Hels said to have declared that all the money in New York could not induce him to leave the Brotherhood. J called on Connor at bis home in Water bury,’’ Mr. Day said, and asked nis views on the base ball question. Connor said that, while he did not believe that the officers of the Brotherhood were treating the men right, he intended to stand by the agreement. Connor, like many other players, does want to be called a deserter. Althoug ters have been misrepresented to pe rank and file of the Brotherhood movement, the boys are fearful of showing thei: hand, not caring to be called traitors to thecause. I have not the least doubt as to the course the majority of my boys will pursue. If the courts decide against Ward, and I have every reason to believe thatthey will, I feel certain that my team, with perhaps one exception, will be under contract in less than a week after the decision is rendered. All they want is an excuse to leave the Brotherhood, and they are sure to get it in a sbort time. Col, John I, Rogers said yesterday: I am amused atthe sensational dispatches which appearin certain papers with Brotherhood tendencies. That Hamilton cannot be en- gaged by the Philadelphia Ciub and that Ham- iltong and Long have serious intentions of joining the Players’ League. The writers of these paragraphs would, doubtiess, like to see these players take some such step, but they will be disappointed.’’ Is there any truth in the report that the Kansas City Club has refused to transfer their players to the League?’’ he was asked. „None, whatever, replied Col. Rogers. „»The facts of the case are these: The Kansas City Club notified President Young that unless we purchased the release of those players before January 1, the offer would be withdrawn. As you’re aware the League committee met in Philadelphia on Tuesday December 31, and assigned the players, an the Presidents were at once notified by tele- graph. „Has Hamilton been engaged?“ Not yet. We rely upon the Kansas City Club to do that, said Col. Rogers. 1 do not anticipate any trouble in getting Hamil ton, as Secretary Krauthoff wires me that Hamilton, — and Stearns signed contracts tor this year with the full understanding that they were to be transferred to tne League, and Hamilton made a special agreement that he would only go to Boston, New York or Phila- deiphia.’’ Diamond Chips. The Brotherhood gy rw say that Indianap- olis’ ‘‘Brush sweeps clean. Pete Sweeney, who played with the Browns, leads the California League in batting. A. D. Gumbert, the Chicago pitcher, will play with the Pittsburg Players’ League. Jack Farrell of last year’s Baltimore Club is reported to have signed with the New York League Club. Von der Ahe started into base ball with $10,- 000. Now be is worth a quarter ofa million. [New York WORLD. President Spalding aye the ‘‘reserve’’ rule was proposed by the Boston Club, and was almed at the Chicago Olub. Tommy Quinn, the Baltimore catcher, who signed with the Brooklyn Players’ League team, has been transferred to the Pittsburg Piayers’ League Club. Hatfield has signed a contract to play with the New York Brotherhood Club. Besides a share of the profits he will get a larger salary than Mr. Day paid him. John Burdook says he will sign with the New Haven Club atthe figures originally proposed by the management—$1,800 for the seasun. He will not sign otherwise. ; If the worst comes to the worst the St. Louis papers will put checker and domino depart- ments in the place of base ball in their col- umns.—(New York Herald. President Von der Ahe of the Browns has written a letter to Secretary Hawley of the Cleveland League Club in which he positively denies having any understanding with the Brotherhood managers or of playing traitor to the American Association. Lovett, Brooklyn’s erratic pitcher, has opened a liquor store in Providence, R. I., and his friends think ne has retired perma- nently from the ball fleld, as be has not no- tifled the management of the Brooklyn club of his willingness to sign for next season. President Stern of Cincinnati has not yet 2 up hopes of securing Latham. True, e has signed Oarpenter, but a little thing like that doesn’t matter, as he can shipped — enough if Latham can be induced to violate faith with the Brotherhood. Says the New York Clipper: ‘‘It is certain! an undeniable fact that if there is no money in base bail, as is claimed by certain persons, then itis a fatal mistake to be offering tabu- lous sums as salaries and a three years’ oon tract to players to jump contracts they have already signed. Such action is unworthy any reputable organization.’’ . Foot- Ball. The Hibernian Foot-ball Olub will meet at 8 o’clock to-night at Central Turner Hall. A full meeting is expected and important busl- ness will be transacted. The M. A. A. OC. will have a practice game at Forest Park to-morrow morning. Kick-off at 10 o’ clock sharp. 6 The Foot-Baill Muddie. Ata meeting of the Foot-ball League held last night the Pastimes’ resignation was dis- cussed.

NEW YorK, Jan. 4.—The clattering hoofs that pounded the frozen dirt at Clifton yes- terday found no echo in thiscity. The tick- ers, to be sure, clicked off the names of the disheartened animals that during these dreary winter days have been alternately splashing through the mud or leveling the hard ridges of the Jersey course; but, so far as the pool- shops are concerned the clicking was done in 8 deserted rooms, and there were no eager hands clutching at the slow-moving tape. The sixty odd places in this town, where menhave been wont to gather and spend their 310 bills, and the less preten- tious shops to which office ys had hurried in the lunch hour to risk their $2 bills, were closed uptight. And nobody knew just why. All that could be learned wasthat a mysterious influence had been at work and the pool-sellers had unani- mously and with hardly a murmur bowed to aon mysterious influence and closed their oors. In the raft of explanations that were offered in connection with the closed doors there was none more ingenious and Rr ible than that put forward by an old turfite who insisted that the whole troubie grew out of a clash in the interests of two sets of ygamblers—the men who run the faro, roulette and other shops and those who have been lining their pockets through the pool rooms. Here's the case in a nutshell,“ he said last night, ‘‘andI don’t know thatI can make you understand it bet- ter than by telling you ofa meeting [hada couple of weeks ago with an old friend of mine, who has been running a faro ranch. He was looking pretty gloomy and I said to him * the matter, old man, business poor?’ Poor be ——.,’” said he, ‘taint no name for it; things are all zone to smash.’ „Why. What’s up?’ said I. Why, it’s these confounded pool- rooms, says he; ‘every blessed cent of money about town ig just dropped into them, and us poor deviis don’t get a copper to speak of.’ Well I met him again a couple days ago and he was looking as happy as the clam we are told about when the tide is high. Well, you look content,’ says I. es, says he, ‘it’s allright. We've got things fixed. Got what fixed?’ says I. „Why.“ says be, ‘You'll see these pool fellows go in the soup before long and then wes have a chance to make an honest dollar ain.’ ’’ It kind of looks as if he knew what he was talking about, don’t it? It was the agile intellect of Lawyer Abe Hummel. Clifton Races. CLIFTON, N.
