NO ENCOURAGEMENT rok THE WORLD’s FAIR BOOMERS JUST Now. Fears That There Will Be No Fair With Government Backing—Chicago Working for Washington—The Meat Product In- vestigation Resumed—The Tariff Hear- ings—Senator Shermaa F ally Recovered —Washington News. By Telegraph to the Fosr-Dur ren. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 24.—The World’s Fair boomers have not been encouraged by any recent development inthe House. On the other hand there are — who think the chances fora Fair with the authority of the Government back of it are gradually dimin- ishing. Congressman Turner of New York, however, is of a different frame of mind. He believes there will be a Fair and that his city will get it. He thinks that the contested election cases will cutafigure in the matter. The New York State appropriation of $10,000,000, he says, will be passed by a unanimous Legislature and that Gov. Hill will find no constitutional dim- culty inthe way to prevent the approval of the measure. Chicago, in the bitterness of her obstructive tactics, has indicated that she would assist the capital rather than see St. Louis or New York successful. Hon. John J. O’Nelllis representing St. Louls on the floor of the House every day and is just as earnest as can be in all his endeavors. Gen. John B. Clark, who has been sick for a week past, is again on the ground. Beyond this St. Louis has only her representatives at work. There is some gossip among Missourians here tothe effect that after the matter is determined, one way or another, the metnods of some of the St. Louis committee- men, who were here, will be criticised. Among other things it is stated that while here Mayor Noonan was not called into the executive meetings held by Gov. Francis and his col- leagues, and that there was a selfishness dis- played which was prominent enough to be noticed. OF INTEREST TO MISSOURIANS. On the 3ist day of the present month Mr. Wm. Sommerville of the Internal Revenue Department will go to 8t. Louis to turn over to Collector Wenneker the Collector's office officially. There are several hundred thousand dollars’ worth of stamps to be counted and the work will occupy about twenty-four hands. The Sedalia Post-office nominution has been hung up; the opposition to Mr. Demueth is at work. Gen. Guitar writes here urging the confirmation. Mr. Kelly of Moberly, who was named for Postmaster, ischarged by his enemies with violating the Sabbath proclamation of the Mayor in persisting in the sale of daily papers and cigars at his stationary store. Wm. P. Smythe of St. Louls is here and is confined to hisroom with a slight attack of the prevailing trouble, la grippe. Col. Sam Hays will likely go to Chicago and the West to-day in connection with business of the Wabash Railroad. He has severed his work with the World’s Fair Committee. Col. and Mrs. John McFall are guests of Mrs. Richard Sylvester, Jr., their daughter, who is convalescent from a severe iliness. Consular nominations are now in order, and one of the Missourians will be made happy, it is said, when the next batch:-goes to the Senate. Mr. Wenneker will return to the capital from Philadelphia and New York to-morrow. Senator Vest expected that Representative Niedringhaus, who is on the River and Harbor Committee of the House, would have been able to pali er snag approprl- ation through. His efforts, however, failed to materialize. The Meat Product Investigation, WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 24.—The Meat Product Investigating Committee, of which Senator Vest of Missouri is chairman,resumed its sessions this morning after an interim of several weeks. The committee has concluded its inqulry into everything except the railroad branch of the investigation, and the meeting this morning was for the purpose ot questioning officers of several of the large railroad corporations as to the rates and facilities governing the transportation of cattle and dressed beef. After this branch of inquiry is finished, Senator Vest will begin the preparation of the report of the committee. The first witness, Sam- nel Sloan, President of the Dela- ware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad Co., in answer to interrogatories from Senator Vest, said thatthe Lackawanna road had refused to transport cars belonging to other people and had had some litigation growing out of this refusal with Nelson Morris of Chicago. Mr. Morris had subsequently withdrawn the suit. No offer of compromise was made him. Morris claimed that because of the peculiar construction of his cars he should have certain advantages over other shippers, which the Lackawanna could not yield. The Lackawanna used the cars of private con- cerns sometimes, paying % cents a mile each way forthe use of the car. The rate was un- form to all persons. Mr. Blaine’s Idaho Friend, Br Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. %.—Secretary Blaine had an interesting interview a few days ago with atypical Westerner from the wilds of Idaho. The Secretary’s caller was Col. Pryce, the Idaho member of the Republican National Committee. Col. Pryde explained that his presence related to the application of his friend, Mr. Rounceville Wiseman, a young newspaper man of Bolse City, who desired the appointment of Consul to Montevideo. After a brief general conversation regarding the matter, Col. Pryde sald: Mr. Secretary, lask this appointment asa personal favor. have been a Blaine man for many years.

Iam so good a friend of yours that on one occasion when a fellow towus man of mine coupled your name with an opprobious epithet, I knocked him down and kicked his face in. Now I want to know if you’ll stand by me as I stood by you. The Secretary’s face beamed with — ga as the Colonel proceeded with his recital. the latter finished, Mr. Blaine gave him a cor- dial handsbaking; then, as he conducted his visitor to the door, he quietly said: Tour argument, Colonel, is a good one. Tour friend’s application shall receive careful con- sideration.”*’ The Tariff Hearings. WASHINGTON, D. O., Jan. 26 —8. J.

THE DETENTION OF A YOUNG GERWAN EMI- GRANT AT CASTLE GARDEN. On Proof That the Emigrant Is Nota Pauper Judge Barrett Declares His Detention as Highly Arbitrary and Orders His Release —Emigration Commissioner Stephenson Refuses to Obey the Court’s Mandate, By Telegraph to the Post-DrsPatcnu. NEw Tonk, January 2%.—While Judge Bar- rett, In the Supreme Court Chambers, late yesterday afternoon was in most emphatio tones pronouncing the detention of a young German tallor, Johann Rammer, by Emigra- tion Commissioner Edmund Stephenson as „highly arbitrary and without justice, a dif- ferentand more animated scene was being enacted in the old board room at Castle Gar- den. At precisely 4:35 o’clock Judge Barrett decided thatthe young immigrant had been uflawtully deprived of his liberty, and ordered his release by the emigration commissioners. At almost precisely the same hour at Castle Garden, Mr. Stephenson, u terms eloquent and fervid, was defending hie action in the Rammer case, maintaining that habeas corpus proceeding before Judge Garretts was the result ot & conspiracy against him, concocted by the minority lu the board, and appealing to the board to defend his action. At the same time that Judge Barrett issued an order directing the release of the immigrant, five of the Emigrant Commissioners adopted a resolution ordering that Rammer be returned to Germany. The emigrant, who 16 2 tailor by trade, being a graduate of à tailoring in- stitution in Dresden, Germany, arrived at Castie Garden January 15. He gave bis ulti- mate destination as San Francisco,Cal.,where he says an uncle of bis lives. He has with him $100 in cash and baggage valued at 80. Early in chilahood Rammer broke his leg, and, owing to a bungling operation, one of hia limbs is slightly shorter than the other. He limps somewhat, but as he is acompetent tallor his lameness does not interfere with bis EARNING HIS LIVELIHOOD, Excepting his short leg Rammer is able.bodied and he is a manly and intelligent looking young fellow. Mr. Stephenson thought that because of his short leg Rammer should be detained, but the immigrant tells another story. Yesterday he identified two clerks in Castle Garden who, he says, told him that it he bought his ticket in Castle Garden for San Francisco he would be given his liberty. The clerks deny this accusation,and Cowmissioner Stephenson emphatically asserts that Rammer was detained as acripple, unable to support himself. Friends of Rammer secured a writ of habeas corpus against Commissioner Stephenson, and Judge Barrétt empowered the referee, James J. Nealis, to take evidence in the proceedings, which was sub- mitted to the court yesterday. Commissioner Stephenson was defended by Lawyer McKae. He contended that Mr. Stephenson acted as a Federal officer and his action was not subject to reviewal by a State Judge. He also contended that Rammer was a orippled pauper’’ and that Mr. Stephenson was justified in detaining him. Judge Barrett ruled that Commissioner Stephenson is a State | officer, but that in this case he acted ‘‘not as Commissioner but as Mr. Stephenson simp- Iy. Astotherelator, Rammer, the Judge ruled that be was ‘‘lame, but not a crippie,’’ and that bisdetention was highly arbitrary, tyranical and WITHOUT JUSTICE, and as he had been illegally deprived of his liberty for the eight days, the Commissioner should discharge him at once. Lawyer Me- Rae urged adelay of proceedings, but Judge Barrett emphatically said “the relator must be discharged.’’ Whilethis decision was be- ing rendered the immigrant at Castle Garden Was answering afusilade of questions. He stoutly maintained that thetwo clerks whom he had recognized threatened to return him to Germany unless he purchased his ticket in Castie Garden. Commissioner Stephenson said that Rammer is a ocrippie, likely to public charge,’’ al- become 4 though he is a first-class work- man, has over $100, and notwithstanding that A. Statmueller, a merchant tailor of Brooklyn, will give him employment as soon as he is given his liberty. Mr. Stephenson was positive that the immigrant was an unde- sirable one, produced statistics to show how ‘‘cripples’’ become public burdens, and closed by saying that the habeas corpus pro- ceedings were the result of dirty, contemp- tible work on the part of the minority on the board. When Commissioner Stephenson put his resolution to return Rammer to Ger- many Commissioners Ridge way, Starr and Huribut voted in affirmative. The resolution prevailed because they were the only commissioners present. The absent members, Messrs. Borke, Hauselt and Ulrich, claim that all the proceedings at yesterday’s meeting are null and void, be- cause the by-laws authorizing the meeting are inoperative, not having been adopted in a réguiar manner. After disposing of the much eontroverted Rammer case, the board trans- acted some routine business and then ad- journed. Now the Commissioners refuse to release Rammer, and say that the habeag corpus roceedings were brought against Mr. Stephenson and not the Emigration Board, Unless new proceedings are instituted against them as a body, they say Rammer will be returned to Europe, de- spite Judge Barrett’s decision. The ex-officio members on the other band claim that the board’s action yesterday was Illegal, and in refusing to recognize Judge Barrett’s man- date * leave themselves liable for con- tempt. Meanwhile Rammer is securely locked up in Castle Garden, and if Judge Barrett wants him he will have to use physical force, so the commissioners say, to capture him. AHEAD OF “OLD HUTCH,” The Chicago Speculator Swindled by His **Settling Boys. CHICAGO, III., Jan. 24.—The Mail says: It is reported on the Board of Trade that the ‘‘set- tling boys“ of B. P. Hutchinson, by a series of cross trades made to a certain broker, have swindled him out of a very large sum of money. Mr. Hutchinson“ was not on the board this morning, bat there appears tobe no doubt that he bas been made the victim of his „boys.“ Nothing else was taiked of this morning by the ‘‘bulls’’ and ‘*bears,’’ and the amount taken was reported to have been as much as $100,000.

THE RAILROADS, The Gate to the Carolinas Closed to St. Louis —Notes and Personals. It is not generally known among shippers of grain and flour the exact reason why they can- not reach the territory in the Southeast. The facts of the case were made plain by one of the prominent local railroud men yesterday. He had received a number of rate sheets cov- ering the commodities mentioned, and said it wag no use to mail them out as the gates ofthis territory are closed against St. Louis by reason of the 2-cent differential in favor of Chicogo. The Richmond & Danville con- trols all points in this territory, excepting three or four, and have tne business haule as they think to their best interests. Chicago, with a 2-cent differential under St. Louis, can compete with Cincinnati, Louisville or Mem- phis for the business, but the amount of bust ness that St. Louis is enabled to do ls prac- tically nothing.

A BARD DAY FOR TEAMING, Several Blockades Caused by Heavy Trafic and Slippery Granite. There was a regular blockade of wagons this morning on Third and Pine streets. Trafficis always heavy on these streets and on the river streets, but this morning progress was slow, the granite slippery and the number of teams seems to have been doubled. They were coal and freight and everything else, and the drivers had to use extraordinary care to get through safely. About 10:30 there was a complete blockade on Pine at the short alley running north between Fourth and Third streets. A driver who had a very heavy load of coal and a team attempted to get into the alley, but his horses lost their feet and one of them was badly cut at the fet inp he woass) ae d tly gore @ narrow 8 cu 0 while inthe meantime "the pve of — was jammed in on either side. before a way could be found in which the drivers co twist their way out, and this had hard done until a horse attached to a heavy stake wages lost bis feet and fell under the tongue. ie again caused a blockade.

THEY GOT THE DOG, An Experience Constables Had in Executing ; a Writ. Constable Hyde and Deputy Norp had an exciting experience lastevening at the resi- dence of a well-known citizen while trying to capture a Scotch collie dog for which they had a writ of replevin. At about 6:30 yesterday evenin Robert E. Collins, ajlawyer, hurried into Justice Spauld- ing’s office aud asked for a writ of replevin for his dog. which he said was in the posses- e sion of rald M.

The writ was made out, the attqrney accompanied the Constable and his deputy to the place where the animal was supposed to be. * aced his deputy at the rear door. Mr. Collſas volunteered to take his stand at the side door, while Hyde boidly went up the steps and rang the bell at the front door.

President STEPHENS of the Columbia Herald, how- ever, hit upon the pith of the subject by making success conditional upon holding the Wheel organizations faithful to the party. Altogether there is evidence of a wholesome awakening among the Demo- cratic editors and voters to the true con- dition and bestinterests of the party in the State, which is the fruit of the Post- DISPATCH’s courageous telling of the truth. — 2 - 9 — — THE WORLD’S FAIR POSTPONEMENT. That the date of the proposed World’s Fair, should Congress ratify the plén of holding one, will be postponed to 1898 and possibly later is a foregone conclusion. Of ali the competitors St. Louis was in early completion. This city had an im- proved location free of cost which could be put in proper condition for the fair in brief time and with slight expenditure. Her citizens had thorough experience in the management of a success- ful permanent fair and ex posi- tion, both of which are unequaled on this continent. The preliminary essentials to a great exposition, which other cities would need time and large means to prepare, are ready at hand in St. Louis. The representatives of this city, therefore, were not as anxious as the representatives of other cities that the time of the fair should be deferred. But they have given their consent to the postponement proposition. The wis- dom of this conclusion in view of the de- lay in the settlement of the fair’s location by Congress and the enormous work nec- essary under the most advantageous cir- cumstances to achieve a creditable result cannot be questioned. This great country, which excites the admiration and envy of all other countries, cannot afford to invite them to a World’s Exposition, exhibiting its wealth and progress, which shall be inferior to any other. That it should reach the excellence of the best is the least to expect of it. That it should over- top allin point of magnificence and inter- est is a fair and practical ambition. Two years is too short a time for the ac- complishment of this result. Three years is barely enough, but this isthe least time that should be accorded the successful city for thé work of preparing an ade- quate exposition. THE BOODLE INV STIGATION. The boodle investigations of the Posr- DISPATCH are beginning to bear fruit and promise a rich harvest in time. One indictment against an ex-member of the House of Delegates has been found by the Grand-jury on the exact line of investigation followed by the Post-Dis- PATCH. The testimony on which the indictment is based was unearthed bythis paper and the names of witnesses were published. Altogether eleven indictments were published by the Post - DISPATCH when the Grand-jury first entered upon its labors. These indictments were complete, the nature of the testimony being clearly outlined and the names of the principal witnesses being furnished. They included all of the chief boodle transactions which have taken place since 1887. Every indictment published by the PostT-DISPATCH will result in a true bill unless witnesses commit perjury or the authorities utterly fail of doing their duty. There is a strong presumption that per- jury has been committed in one case and it is highly probable that the guilty party will have to answer for his crime in court. In the arduous labor of securing evi- dence of corruption and forcing it upon the attention of the authorities the Post- DispaTcH had to bear the brunt of the fight alone. Now that results are appear- ing the morning papers are compelled to give attention to the subject, and are hustling to catch up with the anti-boodle procession. Their support is more a sign than a necessary condition to success. The fight would have been brought to a triumphant finish without them. The Postr-Dispatcu is enlisted as the champion of the honest people of this city to bring the boodling rascals to justice. The first blow has thrown them into a panic, which will be the best aid to their own punishment. ALL LIKE JHE PLAN. The ‘*Post-Dispatch’’ Market Reports Just What the Country Wants. The following letters to the well-known firm of Hull, Steele & Co. ,show the universal favor with which the market reports of the Post- DISPATCH are received in various places out- side ofthe city. The firm, like many others, has adopted the plan of sending the Post- DISPATCH to its customers and correspondents instead of price currents and postal card quotations. The correspondence which fol- lows proves that the plan has been a hit with all: FROM PALO PINTO, MO. PALO PINTO, Mo., Jan. 21. Hult, Steele ꝙ Co., Union Stock Yards, St. Louis: Iam receiving the Post-DISPATCH regularly, and take pieasure in statind to yuuthat IIike the change, as the market report in the Post- DISPATOH is more fully detailed than it was by the card plan. Besides we get a detailed market report from other stock centers with notes and explanations, which gives us a full understanding of the situation. J. B. GARRELL. FROM HANNIBAL, MO.

The Sensational Murder Trial at Wentworth Court-House, N. O. —A Forced Matri- monial Alliance With a Tragic Sequel— David K. Morris’ Death Caused By Chlo- roform—The Murder Discovered By a Servant, By Telegraph to the Post-DtaraTon. WENTWORTH CourtT-Houss, N. O., Jan. 24. Never perhaps in the criminal annals of North Oarolina has any case attracted so much attention as that of Mrs. Cora May Mor- ris, the pretty young woman who stands charged with the murder of her husband at Reidsville last August. The case was called in the Criminal Court- house Monday and to- day fixed asthe day of trial. There are al- ready many prominent people here, some of whom have come from Virginia to witness the trial, and it is plainiy evident that the little county Court-house will not begin to accommodate. all who want to hear the case. Some of the very best legal talent in North Carolina is retained on both sides and the defense claim to feel sure ofan acquittal. Mrs. Morris, who ts withina few weeks of 2l years of age, isa blonde of petite figure, regular features and of marked refinement. Her demeanor at this trying moment is that of one who is accusedof a wrong and has no tangible defense to offer. Cora’s father, Calvin Scales, idolized her. He humored her in almost all the whims which seized the vivacious girl. In only one thing did he oppose her, and that was the choice ofa husband. Her listof beaux was a long one and her high social position gave her an option on the hearts of some of Rockingham County’s most gifted and wealthy young men, but her father insist- ed on bringing aboutthe alliance which to- day has placed Mre. Morris at the bar of jus- tice, charged with killing her husband. On December 12, 1888, she yielded to her father’s entreaties and the marriage to Mr. Morris took place at Reidsville the same day. Only a few hours after their marriage Mrs. Morris demanded that ber husband and herself occupy separate apartments in the house and THE SUBMISSIVE HUSBAND CONSENTED. David E. Mprris was 42 years old and rather eccentric. He was quiet in his demeanor and his tame nature was more than his dashing bride could stand, and it is alleged that she sought a more congenial companion, Mr. Morris was a mer chant at Reidsville. In religious belief he was a Methodist. From having occupied one seat Sabbath after Sabbath for over fifteen years in the town church he cameto be known as Amen Morris.“ The great differences in the views ofthis couple as to what constituted happiness in this life and the girl’s conduct aronsed a natural jealousy in ber husband, butit was very tamely referred to, as Cora herself admits. Morris was found dead in his bedon Monday morning, August 19, 1889, by Lyddy Williams, a cookin the employ ot the family. It was thegiri’s custom to go to her work at 6o0’clock in thé morning, at which hour she was promptly admitted to the house and at any time she was late Mrs. Morris would reprimand her severely. On the morring in question, however, she found itimpossible to gain ad- mittanceto the house until past 7 o’clock. After entering she went to Mr. Morris’ room and fouad bim lying Mead on his bed with his hands foided across his breast. Lyddy im- mediately went to Mrs. Morris and told her that her husband was dead. To this the wife replied: GO away; you are a fool.“ The girlthen urged Mrs. Morris to go and see for herself, but the latter refused to do 80. The cook then commualiecated her impressions to one Sam Wall, who immediately called in Messrs. T. F. Mooie, C. M. Goode and Dr. J. N. Hester, intimate friends of Morris. These gentiemen went up to the house and satisfied themselves that MORRIS WAS DEAD. Upon questioning Mrs. Morris whether de had been complaining or sick at all, she replied thatshe had been giving him med- leine during the night to make him rest and that he was not dead, but asleep. It had been learned, and will eome out in the trial, that Mrs. Morris a few days before her hus- band’s death, bought two ounces of chioro- form from Chas, Fetzer, a druggist in Reids. ville. Two weeks before Mr. Morris“ death his wife proposed that he will her a lot of his property and insure his life in her favor tor $10,000, saying that if he consented she would, on September 1, 1889, begin with faithfulness every marital duty. 80 desirous was Morris of winning her affections that he acceded to the proposition. The will was executed, and a policy for $10,000 taken out with the Mutual Benefis Life Insur- ance Co. of Newark, N. J. The validity of both, of course, is to be tested by the trial now g6ing on. Theinterment of Morris’ body was made on Tuesday, Aucust 20, 1889, after a Coronor’s jury but slightly investigated the case. The verdict was death from natural causes. Unpleasant suspicions, however, be- gan to disturb the peace of thé small com- munity, and on August 30 Morris’ body was ¢xhumed, and the stomach removed. An examination of the other organs was made by Drs. L. G. Broughton and T. Mu. Gregory. Both pronounced the heart sound, the left lung in anormal condition and the right slightly affected. Inthe analysis made of the stonyach by Prof. W. J. Martin, a chemist of Davidson Colleze, there were no traces of poison and nothing to indicate death from that cause. The State expects to prove that death was caused by chloroform, a bandkerchief being saturated and placed over his face after he had gone to sleep the night preceding his death. An empty chloro- form bottle was found in the room anda handkerchief thoroughly saturated covered Morris’ face when the girl Lyddy went to call bim. MR. SCHEPP DISPLEASED. He Regards His Suspension From the Stock Exchange as au Injustice. By Telegraph tothe Posr-Dtse ron. : New Tonk, Jan. %.—Broker Leopold Schepp, who, with George H. Bend, was on Wednesday suspended for ten days by the Governing Board of the Stock Exchange, is perturbed and angry. He says he was not the aggressor in the little fracas which took place between him and Mr. Bend onthe floor sev- eral days ago. „Why,“ he said yesterday, dy the de- cision of the Board it costs just as much to get licked as it does to lick aman. The board punishes a man just the same for a like 1 r as they would if he acted like a tough. Mr. Schepp says that he went before the governing board and gave testimony. He thought be was only a witness. He told the governers that the discussion arose over whether ne had offered a lot of sugar trust certificates at 51. He said be bad not. Bend claimed he had. He told Bend that he had misunderstood him. Bend called him a Nar and he told Bend that he talked like a! fool.“ Thereupon Bend assaulted him. Afterward each apologized to the other. Mr. Schepp says that he asked President Bull while he was testifying whether it was a trial or only an informal investigation, and he says Mr. Bull told him it was only an informal inquiry. Then twenty minutes later he received notice of his suspension, A petition ie being cireu- lated requesting that he be reinstated. It will probably be presented to the governing board to-day, and if he is not reinstated he will put the matter in the hands of his lawyers. Falling Iuto Line.

FLACK’S PREDICAMENT. The Annual Banquet of the Second Panel of the Sheriff’s Jury. By Telerranh tothe POst-DIsrPaTca. NEW bts a 24.—Only one regret ob- tains among the people who attended.the an- nual banguet of the second panel of the Sher- iff’s jury at Delmonico’s last night, and that is a year must elapse before the second panel can hold another banquet, The dinner was excellent in quality, the wines were plentiful, even for the banquet of the second pauel, and the speeches were as light and sparkling as the champagne, There was no toast list and each orator talked on any subject that his fancy suggested. Sandwiched between the courses and the speeches were musical solos, vocal and instrumental, aud recitations. Mr. Adam smith, the foreman of the second panei, presided. On his right sat Sheriff Jas. A. Flack, stolid and seemingly indifferent to allthat was going on. To Mr. Smith’s left was Judge J. R. Brady, while on the dais were Judge Noah Davis, Gen. Horace Porter, Judge Richard O. German, H. N. Allen, Judge Joseph F. Daly, Judge A. R. Lawrence, Judge Edward Patterson, Noah Brooks, Judge Rufus B. Cowing, Recorder Frederick Smith and Judge Randoiph B. Martine. Judge H. W. Bookstaver’s name was also on the list of honored guests, but the Judge himself was not there. His place was taken by T. O. T. Carin, Mayot Grant’s private secretary. Sheriff Flack’s son, liam, was also present, and followed his fathers K ample of serming indifferent to everything about him except the menu. No little interest is attached to thé fact that this was the first ublio appearance of the Sneriff since bis amous divorce proceedings were exposed. Not only did this fact occasion general though subdued comment, but itresuited in certain marked and unmistakable evidences of the Sheriff’s unpopularity. Judge John R. Brady positively refused to sit beside Mr. Flack and the genial foreman, Mr. Smith, was compelled to change his original plan of having Judge Brady preside, to leave the place al- jotted to him on the common floor, and to go on the dais and sit be- tween Sheriff Flack and Judge Brady. Again, when Mr. Smith had spoken a general welcome in behalf of the second panel, and had proposed the one regular toast, ‘‘The Sheriff, the manner in which this was re- sponded to was as significant as it was strik- ing. At least five of the distinguished Judges sitting on the same dais with the Sneriff re- fused to rise to their feet or even to touch their glasses. This spirit of disapproval ex- tended to other members of the company, many of whom followed the judicial example, while others went a step further and deliberately turned their backs toward the Sheriff. They seemed to be unable to distinguish between the Sheriff as au efficerandthe Sheriff as a man. If Mr. Flack noticed any of these affronts he gave no evidence of it. He arose in his lethargic man- nerand readafew wordsof formal thanks from a piece of paper that he had some trouble in deciphering. His speech. was fol- lowed by a balf-bearted effort at applause and then Foreman Smith with commendable tact introduced Judge Brady and thereafter the varied entertainment was sufficient to divert attention frou, the Sheriff. A CONFIRMED DRUNKARD. ‘ The Checkered Caréer of Mary Brennan, a Former New York Belle. Fy Telegravh to the Post-DIspatcnr. Troy, N. T., Jan. 24.—Policeman Green found a woman in the street Wednesdav night helplessly drunk and nearly frozen to death, as the night was bittercold. The woman was thinly clad and had a smal! bundle of clothing under herarm. She had been seen wandering almlessly about during the early part of the night, and occasionally she would fall to the sidewalk. The officer took her to the station house and locked her in a cell, little dreamlug of the distinguished per- sonage he had found. The woman, whose face bore marks of dissipation, was once a courted beauty in the great thetropolis of the country. When arraigned before Assistant Police Magistrate Coffey yesterday morning she wes recognized as Mary Brennan, a belle in New York during the iegime of Boss Tweed. She isa sister of ex-Sheriff Brennan of New York, and a niece of ex-Reading Clerk of the Board of Aidermen, Wm. Molony, now un eile in Canada. In the palmy days of the Tweed ring the home of the woman was 4 favorite place of meeting forthe ‘‘statesmenu of the ring.’’ Mise Brennan was engaged to be married to Foster Dewey, Tweed’s book- keeper. The downfall of the ring broke up the plans of many of the ring followers, and among others those of Dewey and the marriage never took place. Mary soon began to drown her thoughts of the past in wine, then beer, and finally became a confirmed inebriate. Not tong ago her mother, who owns considerable property in New York, besides the house that Tweed lived in, caused her daughter's incarceration in an inebriate asvium near the metropolis. Asshe is possessed of considerable means herself, owning valuable property on Chrys- tie street, New York, she retained Howe & Hummell to secure her release, but pending action by them she escaped from the asyium and came to Troy, where she has friends. She kept sober fora while, but the oid thirst proved stronger than her will. Shetold Jus- tice Coffey that she drank to break up an at- tack of the grippe. She was sent to jail for ten days in default of $10 fine. Ihougu she said she would raise the tine in afew minutes if al- lowed to go to her friends, the Court told her it would do her more good to go to jail for a whileand recuperate. She said while ram- bling about last night she lost a valuable muff and other articles. It is said she was related to Judson Jarvis, an intimate friend of Tweed, who died recently atthe Hotel brunswick, in New York. Miss Brennan gays she was an in- timate friend of John Morrissey when he was in his glory. Sue accuses Foster Dewey of be- ing the cause of her downfall. She was sent to the penitentiary from here twe years a 0 and Wednesday morning she was released from the Troy Jail, where she had served fifty-nine yes for drunkenness. She cele- brated ber release by getting drunk again, TEMPERATE TEMPERANCE TALK, A Large Meeting of the Advocates of Total Abstinence at Central Union Church, At the Central Union Church, corner of Eleventh and Locust streets, the Good Templars held another entlhasiastic temper- ance meeting last night. The crowd was the largest ot the week. Col. Sobieski’s speech was on the progress of the temperance cause. He left the meeting in the hands of Ben Deer- ing at 9 o’clock and went to a meeting of Pride of St. Louis Lodge, Good Templars. In bis address at the close of the meeting, Ben Deering spoke of the lack of harmony and charitable agreement among the temperance people. Hesaid: ‘*You ought not abuse or censure a fellow-citizen because he cannot or will not agree with you on the principles and policy of temperance reform.- All men who are disposed to favor pub- lic morals and social reform antagonize the saloon.

An Arkansas City That Has Numerous Out- lets and Will Seon Have Many More— Some of the Many Peints Reached by the Rallroads—The Trade They Will Bring. Speciai Correspondence of Post-Dispatocn. Fog r Surg, Ark., Jan. 23.— Tue raflroad situation is most favorable forthe future of Fort Smith and nothing sbort of absolute neglect on the part of her citizens will prevent her being the central point of travel between the North and South as well as the East and West between points soutu ot Kansas City. Two of the great systems have their lines branching from this as acommon center and a third is evidently covering a part of our un- occupied tributary country by uniting at this point, the Fort Smith, Paris & Dardanelle, the Fort Smith & Southern and the Splitlog roads. Each of these will open up a new field for our wholesale business. The first giving a direct road to Dardanelle, and passing through a fine agricultural country south of the Arkansas River and opening a rich mineral and timber section through or nearwhich there is at present no railroad. The second will run through the best coal, iron, antimony and manganese deposits in the State, as wellas through the largest body of unculled pine timber, and give a direct line to Texarkana. The third will give us almost an air line to Kansas City, shortening the present route by seventy miles, and will openup a very fine agricultural country in Northwest- ern Arkansas to our trade. Of the first- named line something over five miles are already bullt and the right of way pro- cured to Dardanelle. On the second, fifty miles from Texarkana is under construction, andjof the third, thirty-five miles from Joplin, Mo., south, are completed and in operation, and fifteen miles more under construction. These three roads are controlled by ‘the same parties, who evidentiy intend to com- plete them about the same time, making Fort Smith their central point and general head- quarters. ALL IN OPERATION. The Missouri Pacific has three lines of road in operation centering at this place, the Lit- tle Rock & Fort Smith, the Kansas & Arkansas Valley, and the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern. The firstis an old line, too well known to need further mention; the second has recently been pas ie operation from Fort Smith to Coffeyville, Kan., and runs for 170 miles through the finest unsettled agricultural!) section lu the United States. The third has seventeen miles of completed and operated road, over which is hauled the product of the famous Jenny Lind coal mines. This line will, in the near future, be completed toa connection with the main line of the Iron Mountain road, and is destined to be one of the greatest coal roads in the country. More than twenty miles ofits track will be above veins of the finest semi- anthracite coal, from four to seven feet in thickness. The country which it will pene- trate is in the virgin state, and contains some very valuable deposits of iron ore and kao- lin. A NORTHERN CONNECTION. The St. Louls & San Francisco is at present our most valuavie connection with the North, East and South. The main line from St. Louis to Paris, Tex., is one of the most popular lines of travel between Texas and the North- east. So far this company has built but one branch, which now termin- ates at Mansfield, thirty miles south- east of Fort Smith. Along this branch some twenty coal mines bavée been opened by the Kansas & Texas Cdal Co., whose mining capacity is 12% cars per day. Four passenger trains run daily between Mansfield and Ft. Smith, and along this short line the population has increased nearly ten thousand since the opening of it in October 1887. Ultimately this branch will be extende directly east to Hot Springs, giving us another desirable connection. The Ft. Smith & El Paso road, which has acharter through the Territory, will in tne near future be built toa connection with the M. K. & T. near Savannah. By the terms of its charter 100 miles must be in operation by April 15 1891. This road touches an entirely new untry, and under some sixty miles of its tracks isa vein of coal similar in quality to that at McAlister. A NEW AND VALUABLE BRIDGE. The Missouri Pacific Railroad bridge now being constructed will be the means of cross- ing the Arkansas River for a number of north and south lines, and is in reality the impor- tant pointin the connections of all the ra- roads centering here. Heretofore the business has all been done over the Frisco bridge. Besides making delay and inconvenience, it has made the distance ten miles greater to all Kansas points. THE KNIGATS OF PYTHIAS. Gen. Crauahan and Staff Arranging for the Milwaukee Conclave. MILWAUKEE, Mis., Jan. 24.—Gen. Cranahan, Grand Commander of the Uniformed Rank, Knights of Pythias, with his staff met last last night with the merchants and the Ad- yancement Associations to discuss the arrangements for the Knights of Pythias’ Grand Conclave to be heid in this city next July. It was shown that 8,000 tents would be required, also suitable grounds. When a member of the staff from Illinois broached the subject of arate of 1 cent a mile on the railroads, there was a peculiar expression noticeable on the face of every Milwaukée man present who had remembered the agita- dion of rates for the Grand Army last summer. Gen. Cranahan, however, assured all that there would be no controversy with the rail- roads over a question of rates, although an effort would be made to secure as low a rate as possible to Milwaukee. Killed by an Elevator. Thomas Gillespie, a fireman employed in the Government building, had his neck broken in the freight elevator sbaft last even- ing at about 5 o’clock. No one appears to know bow the accident occurred. Jerry Col- Uns, an employe of the Post-office, was run- uing the elevator and he saw Gillespie talking withsome men when he tookatrip to the basement floor. Gillespie then left the men and it is supposed went into the sub-basement at the bottom of the elevator shaft to oil a pump there. ben Collins brought the elevator to the sub- basement, it would not settle to the bottom and on examining the cause saw Gu. lespie stretched in the bottom of the shaft uivering inthe throes of death. Assistant ight Engineer Hilliard and Electrician Brown were called and the a5 was taken out. A physician was called, but he pro- nou the man’s neck broken. The. body was then taken to the Morgue. Gillespie was 56 years of age and belonged to the G. A. R. and the Knights of Honor. He leaves a wife and eight children living at 810 Benton street. His eidest daughter was mor- ried the night before his death. Tom Jones’ Confession. HELENA, Ark., Jan. %&.—Thomas Jones, an old man, told his story of the murder of Leona Lee.

They were in the saloon of Emili Dietz at 800 Wash street waiting for a man, when they saw Joseph McKenna, who has served time as a thief, entered the saloon with another person, unknowWn to them. McKenna stepped up to the bar and asked the bartender it there was anything there for bim.

Inside wasfound a light overcoat similar to the one worn by McKenna, both being new. When asked where they got them the men first elalmeq that they had purchased them at the Famous then said they bought them elsewhere. McKenna sald they were et tag him by a young man named Tony ph. The policemen took the coats to the **Famous,’’ but they were told that the coats had not come from there. The men were locked up at the Third Dist Station, McKeana’s companion gave his name as Dan Whistler and said he lived at 1218 North Seventh street with his wife and two cblidren. McKenna lives at 1427 North Tenth street. Both claimed to be employed as linemen by the Missouri Electric Light Co. After being ciosely questioned the men ad- mitted that Tony Balph worked for the Schwab Clothing Co. at 512 8t. Charles street. Leon Schwab was notified, andon arriving at the station identified the coats and swore out warrants against Ralph and the two pris- oners. Ralph wastaken to thestation and admitted taking the coats but claimed that he was going to pay forthem. He was employed asa stock clerk at Schwab’s. Mr. Schwab said that a number of overcoats and pants had been missed from the store but that he had never suspected Ralph. This morning Mrs. Whistier called at the station and her husband wept when she taiked to him. Capt. Joyce thinks that Whistler was notaware of the way the were obtained but that he was unwittingly led into the affair by McKenna. Whistiersaid he agreed to pay eKenna 812 for the coat on pay day, the first of the month. MAYOR'S OFFICE GOSSIP. The Marshalship Election—A Queer Letter— Other Items. Mayor Noonan has not yet decided what to do inthe Marshalship case, and has not yet announced whether he will call an election or not. He received a letter to-day from A. J. F.

Williams, Re- corder of Voters, asking permission to state his case in the event of the Mayor’s deciding to have a hearing of the case, Mr. Lee stating in the letter that he has information to the effect that legal proceedings will be inst'tuted against the Recorder as soon as the Mayor's decision is announced. If an election is called the proceedings will be to prevent the Recorder m holding it, and it the decision isto the contrary steps im the opposite di- rection will be taken. Mayor Noonan said: ‘‘I bave not yet thought of the subject to a sufficient extent to warrant my saying anything about it, but it I do have a hearing on the ease I will give Mr. Lee a chance to be heard.“ During the morning Chief Lindsay, Register Wherry, Comptroller Stevenson and Ass nt Prosecuting Attorney called upon the Mayor.

The case created a great deal of excitement at the time and the indignation ran high.

The Existence of the Alliance Said to Be Threatened if the Chaplain’s Office Is Abolished—A Lively Meeting Monday Expected—Christian Endeavor Societies’ Union Meéting—The Chautauqua—Sun- day-School Teachers’ Meeting. HE meeting of the “2 Evangelical Alliance next Monday morning will be alivelyone. At the last meeting Dr. Ford and Dr. Masden gave notice that they would move to abolish the office of chaplain if the dept to Dr. Haggerty was not provided for, and a year’s salary pledged in advance. As this has not been done and the matter is sure to come up again, itis likely to produce another stormy scene among the preachers. The last meeting was devoted entirely to the „ subject andsome point- ed remarks were in- dulged. One prominent wave Clergyman said, ‘‘Iif Je this thing is not speed- Pily settled it will break up the alliance.’’ Tue salary paid the chaplain is only $600 a year, but for the past few years there bas been a great deal of difficulty In raising even this amount from the churches. Chaplain Haggerty was appointed when the office was created and has contiuued in the position ever since. His work is to visit the various city institutions and preach the gospel to the unfortunates who are confiaed therein. He has done so with considerable succsss and many of the ministers are most anxious that he should continue to do so. Others, however, either could not or would not obtain their assessments from their congregation, and the trouble over the chaplain’s salary at every meeting ofthe alliance finally became tiresome. Some of the ministers are known to have radical views on the necessity of hav- ing a chaplain in the city institutions, and should the office be abolished they will in all probability give vent to tneir opinions. Christian Endeavor Meeting. The twentieth union meeting of the Chris- tian Endeavor societies was held last evening at the First Christian Church on Locust street and Compton avenue. There was avery large representation. Rev. O. A. Bartholomew, the pastor of the church, delivered an address of welcome. Rev.

He especialiy warned them Against allowing non-essential questions to disturb the convention. In conclusion he said he hoped that the convention would out-num- ber that held last year in Philadelphia. After Dr. Rhodes’ address the _ societies joined in singing hymn No. 202. The arrangements for the coming convention were then discussed. The permanent committee for the yeur 1890 was organized by the election of W. H.

In a letter toa friend in this city he says: Our meetings here have been very successful. 1 will return to Carters- ville, Ga , next week.’’ Mr. Jones’ success at New Orleans, in the face of determined op- osition on the part of many of the clergy, Bas given him a fresh boom in the South. There is a report in circulation that Arch- bishop Kenrick is soon to retire. The founda- tion foritis a telegram from Dubuque an- nuuncing that Archbishop Hennessey isto be his successor. The rumor is entirely discred- ited by Viear-General Brady and other mem- pers ofthe Catholic clergy here. The fact that the venerable Archbishop after living in retirement for twenty years is now perform- ing all the duties of bis office and has given no expression of an intention to even ask for a coadjutor is considered evidence that the Du- buque story is imaginary.

Do you suffer from palpitation, or a In some cases the skin becomes hot and dry, particularly the feet and hands; in others, again, the feet and hands are cold, and there is great heat in the body and head. Sometimes there are sharp pains, front and back, under the shoulders, and there may be chronic diarrhea. The tongue is usual- ly coated, and often there is nausea and vomiting after meals. The appetite is variable, generally poor, and there is often an excessive flow of saliva. The patient suffers from an increased fever during the night, frequently perspires while asleep and is troubled with “heartburn.” Generally the face is flushed or the skin becomes sallow, and sometimes there is a dry, hacking cough, while the voice is hoarse and husky. Not all of the foregoing symptoms are present in every case. The more complicated the disease has become, the greater the number and diversity of symptoms. Generally the liver is torpid and many times the kidneys more or less involved. It is in the cure of this distressing malady that Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med- ical Discovery has acquired world-wide fame.

Bu Telegraph to the Posr-Disr Aren. NEW YORK, Jan. 24.—The current issue of the Shoe and Leather Reporter has this: **A New York banker was relating the other day an lacident of the Beecher trial. He was a warm friend of the great preacher, but he ‘was also acquainted with Mr. Fullerton, one ot the counsel for the other side. Mr. Fuller- ton made an appointment with him to take him over to Brookiyn during the time Mr. Beecher was a witness. As he filed into court with the anti-Beecher procession—Ful- lerton, Beach, Tilton and others—he had the uncomfortable feeling that he was in a false position, and he imagined there was re- Proach in Mr. Beecher’s eye as he observed him. Near the prosecuting group sat the man whom the gentiemen were speaking of, and whom he took for granted to be the mu- tual friend,“ Moulton. The fellow’s face had a strange fascination for him. He could not keep his eyes off of him, and the more be looked the more he wondered how a man 80 near Beecher’s caliber could have trusted a person with such a countenance as that. His distrust and dislike of him grew as long as he sat where he could get a vlewot him. After a while he said to some one near him ‘‘that’s Boulton, of course,’’ pointing in the dirction whither his eyes had so long been bent, ‘‘I sbould not think a jury would put much con- Adence in anything he testified to. **Why, that is not Moulton,’’ replied the sd he had spoken to, ‘‘that’s Mark ain.’ * Enlarging Their Business.

A PECULIAK MANIA, Murtagh McLeod, a Maine Lumberman, Crazed at the Sight of Horses. Ry Telegraph to the Posr-Disrarck. BANGOR, Me., Jan. 24.—Murtagh McLeod, a lumberman who has been in the woods for some time, was brought to this city in lrons last night by a deputy sheriff. The cause of his arrest was the development of insanity which led nim to attack and try to kill horses. He was sitting on a log landing sharpening a long knife some days ago, when a splendid team of horses was driven up by a teamster. At the sight of tnem McLeod uttered a wildcry and jumped from his seat to the horses and literaliy disemnboweled one of the animals before he could be stopped. The workmen around him secured him just as he was aboutto make an attack on the other horse. He only made a slight resistance. Tie man was bound hand and foot and kept in camp until a team was ready to start for civil- ization when he was loaded aboard and driven to a deputy sheriff. He seems to be particu- larly violent at the sight of animals, but since he has been confined has acted in a perfectly rational manner. The physicians regard his case as an exceedingly peculiar one and are watching it closely. SALVATION Oi! is a certain cure for headache, toothache, earache, etc. Only 25 cents. MISSOURI MATTERS.

THE PROGENY OF DEVFLOPED AND UN- DEVELOPED SIRES COMPARED. >, Money Won by Runners on the American Turf Last Tear— Base Ball Taking Hoid in Old England—The Intercollegiate Base Ball League Dissolved — Racing, Base Ball and Other Sports. ' ONSIDERABLE dis- cussion is going on in the East at pres- ent concerning the merits of developed and undeveloped sires, A writer, signing himself Ar- No, contributes the w following communi- cation on the sub- ject to the New York Sun: In a late num- ber of the Sun I saw a letter from Mr. C. J. Hamlin of Buffalo, in which he gives the names of some of the fast performers of the past season, which,in his opinion, go to prove the superiority of undeveloped horses as sires of trotters. Iam only a student of the breed- ing problem, but the performances of the past season have convinced me that the colts that were sired by developed sires have more than held their own. It is true that a number of un- developed sires have been very successful in siring fast performers, but as a rule they belong to an older generation than the de- veloped ones, and consequently have more and older colts to representthem. If develop- ment in the sire tends to reduce his chances asasire, why is it that Mr. Hamlin places the service fee of his horse Chimes—that was trained almost continually from his yearling to his 3-year-old form—ata higher price than his undeveloped horse Mambrino King, and that of his great 4-year-old campaigner, Prince Regent, 2:214%, at a higher price than that of bis undeveloped’ sire? Mr. Hamlin is also mistaken when he says that Gen. Tracy bred and brought out Mid- night, 2:18%, as he was bred by F. J. Nodine of Brooklyn. His sire, Peacemaker, sired many oolts before he got Midnight, while the first colt that Gen. Tracy’s devel- oped horse, Kentucky Wilkes (2:21%) ever sired was Virginia Evans, that got a 4-year- old record of 2:24 last season. Prince Regent is certainly a great colt, but before making claim that he is the best 4- year-old of last sea- son Mr. Hamlin should look over the per- formance of Direct (2:18%), the 4-year-old son of the developed and campaigned horse, Director (2:17), that was also the sire of the great 3-year-old, Margaret S. (2:19%); while Prince Regent has not won a heat as fast as 2:20, Direct has won nine faster than that, and in at least two of his races—which he won—he trotted every heat faster than 2:20. I have arranged a table, which I append, showing some of the colts of different ages, and of some of the aged horses, that made new records or reduced their record the past season, and that were sired by developed sires, and any candid persoa will confess that, although for the greater part the developed sires are young, they have certainly madea great showing.

From the advance sheets of Goodwin's **Ofmficial Turf Guide’’ for 1889, it appears that the total amount of money raced for last year, inclusive of entrances to purse races, and, including only the money added by clubs, was $2,379,192, as compared with $1,837,285 In 1888. This shows, therefore, an increase of above $500,000 forthe year, and there were 500 more races run. West Side Park, Chicago, contributed $219,100 in 112 days’ racing, and 614 races run, and Clifton comes next with $201,150 for 102 days’ racing and 556 races. But these clubs have not really anything like such averages as the summer tracks. Of these Monmouth hadan average of $9,212.50 fortwenty days; Sheepsbead of $8,827.50 for twenty days; Morris Park, $8,237.50 for twenty days, and Gravesend of $7,817 for twenty-five days, while the West Side average is under $2,000. New York and its immediate vicinity contributed $1,412,950, which is more than the total amount won by American horses at home and abroad in 1883 by $100,000. There were 4,848 races on the flat, of which 3,119 were at distances of undera mile, including heats, 718 ata mile, 1,002 over a mile and un- der two miles, eight under three miles, and one at three miles and under four. There were 1,000 races run at six furiongs. The deca- dence in jumping races may be ascertained from the fact that there were only ninety-one such races, as compared with 130 in 1888, and only fifty-four steeple chases, as against ninety-aix in 1888. 6 New Orleans Meeting. NEw ORLEANS, La., Jan. 24.—The races here yesterday resulted as follows: First race, six furlongs, ten starters—Skobe- loff came in an easy winner by a length and a half, Col.

A renewal of its lease of Fleetwood Park has been obtained by the New York Driving Club. Jockey Martin Bergen has gone to Het Springs, where he will spend a month. He will be missed from the New Jersey tracks. Joe Osborne, the well-known English 3 114 was 57 years old on the 7th inst. The ondon Sportsman ot that date says: It is not often a veteran, after appearingin the pig- skinforso many years, is found riding in such capital formas that shown by Osborne last season, and we cordially wish him ‘‘Many happy returus of the day. A. H. Barker, an English jockey, bas failea, and on the .7th mist., at the ndon Bank- ruptey Court, his oreditors held their first meeting. Barker’s liabilities were £1,369 and his assets 8350. The principal proof tendered was one of £1,059 by Miss Ellen Constable on a judgment in an action for breach of promise of marriage, in which she damages against the bankrupt. It is understood Terra Cotta, Egmont and Little Minch will all three be placed in the stud this winter and not be trained again. The latter horse could doubtless stand auother campaign but his owner is of the opinion he has done enough on the turf. He is now 10 years old aud since Mr. Hankins chased him in the winter of 1886 for $6,000 be has won a total of thirty-seven races and 829, 766 in stakes and purses. Aeto Egmontand Terra Cotta, they are both badly bowed, and while they might be good for a race or two it is almost certain neither one of them could make a long cam- paign. Terra Cotta cost his present owner $17,500 and he bas won for him $19,065 in stakes and purses, while Egmont since en- tering the Hankins stable at a cost of $10,500, has wonthe neat sum of $15,494. Thus Mr. Hankins is several thousand ahead on his stallions. The College Base Ball League. The annual meeting of the Intercollege Base Ball Association, held at New Haven, Conn.,- Monday, was brief and to the point. Dele- gates were present from Yaie and Princeton. Tilney of Tale was elected temporary chair- man. Capt. Calhoun of Lale then read Har- vard’s letter of resignation, which was ac- cepted. The chairman then ruled that, under the constitution, this action dissolved the league. Theoutcome of this action cannot be outlined at present. Yale and Harvard may enter a league of New England colleges, or Yale may arrange an independent series of games with Harvard and Princeton. Prince- ton may challenge Harvard to a series of games to be played in New England, somewhere away from Cambridge. President Yancy of the Yale nine stated that in all probability neither Yale nor Harvard would enter a league of New England colleges or form an exclusive arrangement. Every- thing was in a chaotic state just now, but the outcome would probably be that Yale would | arrange a series of exhibition games with | Harvard, and also a series with Princeton. There would be no formal championship games. Harvard and Princeton, he thought, under the existing feeling, would not meet. Base Ball in England. Base ball has evidently secured quite a hold on the affections of the people of England, says the New York Herald, tor clubs have been organized and games have been played in many places in the bright little, tight little ele. And not only that, the National Base Ball League of Great Britain hasfound it nec- essary to advertise for the addresses of those who can play ball, probably with a view of giving their advance money and apportioning them among the different ciubs, as appears from the following advertisement in a recent issue of the London edition of the Herald: B= BALL PLAYERS are requested to send their addresses to Secretary National Base Bail League, 38 Holborn Viadwtt, E. C. That looks as though the demand for play- ers was in excess of the supply, and some of the players who have attained celebrity on the diamond here, but are without engagements for next season, may think it to their interest totake atrip across the Atlantic. There is quite a demand, too, onthe part of the clubs in England for instructions in base ball, so that those who have grown gray 8 base ball in America might find a fleld for their talents as teachers, showing their English cousins how to slide for bases, pull in files, scoop up grounders, knock out liners or do the hundred differentthings that make base ball such a wiidly enthusing sport. And now that England has taken hold of base ball her next alm will be to senda nine over here to dispute with America’s clubs for the championship of the world. So it be- hooves our boys tobe on the lookout for them. Base Bali Briefs. The Schedule Committee of the Players League ia in session at Pittsburg. The Boston Triumvirs may give Meister, the Worcester second baseman, a trial. Hecker and Sowders are aspirants for the position of manager of the Pittsburg League team. Jack Rowe, the ball player, who has been II with the grip, will leave for California for his health. He will be absent until April 1. President Phelps of the American Associa- tion has not yet replied to the request of the Syracuse Clubfor an extension of time in which to file ite bond. Treasurer Billings of Boston has these duties to perform: the signing of Charley Bennett, the purchasing of Crooks’ release from Co- lumbus and the smoothing of Mike Kelly's ruffled feathers. He will also try to sign Nash and Hardy Richardson before many days. „We have it on good authority that there willbe no League club in Washington this year, says H.C. Pennypacker of the Ath- letic Club, and if the Syracuse people think aver cannot supportan American Association club Washington will giadly take the place. I think it would be better for tbe Association if Washington was to succeed Syracuse. Gumbert has signed a Pittsburg Players’ Club contract, but has tacked on so many con- ditions that it la doubtful whether the con- tract will be approved. He wants security for three years’ salary at $3,000 a year, and in case the Ohicago club finishes ahead of Pittsburg wants the same amount of prize money as he would receive if a member of the Chicago club. He also desires to be able to quit the Pittsburg Club on five days’ notice. Sporting Notes. Techigorin defeated Gunsbery in the eleventh game of thelr chess contest ar Havana.

The Sentence Imposed on Mr. Petter for Assaulting His Father-in- Law. By Telegravh tothe Post-Disratcn. NEw YORK, Jan. 24.—Oraig D. Potter, a nephew of Orlando B. Potter, was sent to jail for five days yesterday by Justice Kenna in Brooklyn for having assaulted his father-in- law, Charles Denton. Potter married Miss Denton in May, 1888, and had one child by her. Ever since the wedding, however, he has been on bad terms with Mr. Denton. On De- cember 20 he met bis father-in-law in Fulton street and knocked him down. told the story, and said Potter used bag. The cause was Mr. Den disrespectful conduct to his dau r Mrs. Potter, When George W. Sparks a printer of 3880 Hooper street, was examined, young Potter was pictured as a man of a most bloody disposition. He offered Sparks, the latter said, $100 to get rid“ of r. Denton, and suggested various methods of performing thejob. At one time he ad- vised the use of dynamite, and at enother suggested a cigar loaded with powder. These statements were coyroborated by Mrs. Sparks, who said she overleard most of the confer- ences between her husband and r. added thatthe prisoner had once advocated the policy of killing one of his business asso- clates in the Green Point Terra Cotta Works. When placed on the stand Potter admitted all these allegations, but pleaded Mr. Denton’s Unnatural conduct as a paliiating ciroum- coused his own daugbter of criminal Potter declared, and said she had her mother.
