Middleten Resigns—Foreign News. Loox, June 80.— There is every indication that a serious revolt of Tory Members of Parliament is imminent. Many of whom are chafing under the ridiculous position in which the Government has placed itself and are still further exasperated at the stubborn silence of the Ministry in regard to the procedure to be; observed with reference to the important bills the Government has asked the party to support. The constituents of the restive members are asking what the Government is going to do and the members are unable to inform them. The Tory newspapers are filled with articles warning the Government against further delay in settling upon a practicable programme and adhering to it. All of them agree that the party is notina temperto submit to a continuance of the misrepresentation and inactivity which char- acterize the present conduct ofthe Govern- mont leaders and declare that disaster is sure to follow failure to heed the warning given. On Saturday Mr. Thomas W. Boord, Conser- vative member for Greenwich, publicly de- nounced the Governmegt and declared that the Ministry shamefully discredited the party as whose representatives they were placed in power. Otner Tory members have privately expressed similar opinions and itis perfectly plain that fromthe lofty aim of saving the country, which the Government has fre- quently announced as its mission, it has de- scended to the necessity of doing something immediately to save itself.

MONTREAL, Quebec, June 30.— La Patrie, the French Liberal organ in this city, dis- cussing the question of leadership In the Lib- eral party in the Dominion says: „The Canadias to whom we would like to confide the destinies of the Liberal party does not merit, thank God, either aversion or ridicule. On the contrary, he is a distinguished gentieman who, beginning very low on the social ladder, has, by bis brilliant qualities, by his perseverance, bis great energy and industry, which nothing seems to tire, reached one of the highest positions in the first city of the new world. This is the man whom we would like to see at the head of the Liberal party during the great electoral campaign which L about to be opened in the Dominion. Possessing wonderful know!l- edge of men, being able, energetic and of fertile invention, he has all the qualities that have constituted the force of Sir John Mac- donald, without speaking of several qualities which the Conservative leader does not possess. If Mr. Wiman could be induced to pass twelve months in Canada in order to take the direction of the Liberal party during the next electoral campaign, a long step would be taken toward victory. Mexican Matters. Crrr or MExIco, June 30.—On the 16th of August the National Railroad Co. will send aspecial Pullman excursion train from this city to New York and return, stops being made at St. Louls, Chicago and Niagara Falls.

A representative of the company, speaking Spanish, French and English, will accompany the party. AMUSEMENTS. to Be Put on To-Night at Uhbrig’s Cave. The Unrig’s Cave company will to-night produce ‘‘Amorita,’’ one of the prettiest and most entertaining of lightoperas. During the past week the Cave has been liberally patron- ized and summer opera is apparentiy being received with the same enthusiasm and favor as marked ite production last season. Cavecompany is an excellentone, and the Cave management has announced its inten- tion of keeping none but the best artiste. Harry de Lorme will havea better opppor- tunity of pleasing his audiencesin ‘*‘Amori- ta than he had in Fatinitga. Geo. W. Denham will also have ü better chance of dis- playing his qualities as a comedian. the members of the company will have some time to devote to their parts instead of be- ing compelled toexertall their energies in keeping from dropping exhausted from the heat while dressed in the heavy furs such as were worn in ‘‘Fatinitza.’’ Their condition last week was sometimes even painful to the audience because oftheir evident inconven- lence from the heat. **Amorita’’ has been well rehearsed ana will be produced in the best possible form. SCHNAIDER’S GARDEN. The indications are at present that Schnai- der’s Garden will be opened the evening of July 14 with a comic opera com- pany, which has a repertory and all the latest light operas. The company is now playing in the East, and Mr. Schnaider has just returned from a trip for the purpose of negotiating for the appearance of the com- pany in St. Louis for the summer season. Owing to the unfinished state of the negotia- tions, however, Mr. Schnaider caunot at present give any definite information about i ‘*Amorita”™ HELP FOR THE HORSES. Hew to Ameliorate Their Sufferings During the intense Heat. A correspondent calls attention to the way in which horses suffer on the streets during the hot spell and to the absenoe of any system for giving them relief. He suggests that the Humane Society should take the matter up, give information to assist men in belping suffering horses and provide ambulances for the removal of those animals which swccumb to the heat. This suggestion is atimely one and will doubtiess receive consideration, as our cor- respondent states: ‘‘As you go along through the city you see poor, overworked horses lying prostrate, gasping for breath without any one caring tor them or knowing how they should be treated. The large owpers of horses are able to help their animals a great deal by working them in short stretches and relieving them frequently. The street oar lines which stiliuse horses and mules haye relay stabies or stands at convenient places along the route, and the horses are given ad- ditional rest. It seems to beinthe head that the horses suffer. Several drivers have small and lignt sunshades or canopies attached to the head gear and others keep a frequently muistened sponge on the head. Either plan seems to add greatiy to the borse’s power of endurance. REASON NO. 3. Why the Wires Sheuld Geo Undergreund— A Man Badly Hurt.

She Loses Oontrol of Her Emotions and Pleads With the Cpurt. — ee N She Tells of Her Experiences With the Man Who Says a Woman Makes a Better Wife When Knecked Dewn Frequentiy—Mrs. Bertrand Says Her Husband Knocked Her Down and Kicked Her Three Times, Threw the Baby eu the Floor and Starved Her While in a Delicate Condition—Not a Word From the Father Nor a Cent te Support His Child for Seven Years. The hearing of the Bertrand case was re- sumed this morning. The court was crowded with people anxious to have a look atthe man who had publicly expressed his opinion that some women would make better wives if they were knocked down a little oftener. The case arises out of Bertrand’s anxiety to secure the custody of his 9-year old daughter. He secured a divoree from his wife in Mississippi and for seven years took no aod of either her or of her child. He had marrie again, and, the child of his second marriage dying, he decided to get possession of little Edith, who is now 9 years of age. So far the trial has gone decidedly against him, and it he John Bertrand. holds similar views about rearing children as he does about treating wives Mrs. Bertrand’s objection to his getting possession of the little girl may be easily understood. Evi- dence has been called to prove that Mrs. Ber- trand is not a fit person to have control of her child, but the evidence has helped her case and not injured it. Mrs. Oliver Brooks, who rents the bouse 1221 South Seventh street and sublets a por- tion of it to Mrs. Bertrand, was the first wit ness, placed on the stand this morning. She testified as to Mrs. Bertrand’s treatment of ber child, and said they were very affection- ate towards each — The mother work in alaundry at Four- teenth street and .Waehington avenue as a marker of Iinen and later at an awning com- pany’s. When asked how the child fared and how she wag dressed, she replied: „„The child was better dressed than a great many children in our neighborhood.’ „Aha! That is the kind oftestimony we want, remarked Mr. Bertrand in an under- tone. ‘‘Better dressed, was she?’’ The remark would intimate that he sus- pected his wife did not clothe the child from herown earnings and the remark of Mrs. Brooks also caused atrain of thought of the same kind to rush through Mr. McEntire’s brain. Did you see any one visit Mrs. Bertrand at your house? No one but her sister and some children. „Did any man callon her that you know of? Did she have any gentiemen callers?’’ „She had none, and if she had 1 would have known of it, dirs. Brooks replied. She said the child was very obedient. She would goto school cheerfully, and while her mother was at work she would remain with Mrs. Axe and would never leave the house without permission. MRS MARY PEARSON of 1620 Hebert street, who has known Mrs. Bertrand for many months, was placed on the stand, and asked as to, Mrs. Bertrand’s char- 2 4” Louise PD acter, She said the lady was of a most lovable and amiable disposition, and her child was bright, obedient and unusually precocious. As to dress Mrs. Bertrand was always neat and clean, said Mrs. Pearson, and was very ladylike at ail times. She wad very affection- ate towards her child and the child was extremely so toward the mother. On cross eXamination she reiterated the facts mentioned and was then asked if she ever heard Mrs. Bertrand say she had never married Bertrand because she loved him. **] never heard her say that or intimate it, she answered. MAX BERTRAND ot 1020 North Twenty-third street, brother of John Bertrand, the plaintiff tn this case, was called next. He said he was born in Warnes, Germany, in 1838, and rst came to st. Louis in 1878. Mrs. Bertrand, the defendant, he said, was a guest at his house before she married bis brother. He was Very uncertain as to dates and periods of time since the marriage of his brother, but when asked if his brother was kind and affec- tlonate towa.ds his wife he answered: **He treated her very cool.’ As he had beeu at home oniy at short in- tervais while they were in his house he did not know how he treated her, but while pres- ent his brother always treated his wife well. It would not have been well for him te act otherwise in my house, he concluded, The only incident he remembered which showed his brotherand wife were unhappy was when bis wife and Jobn Bertrand went to a funeral on Sunday in 1883, othes ‘ He 28 1 and his 2 — to Jobe Ben. cae i Bad fetes house secured the 3 g or shoes or No; .

I told my mother about it and asked why John should come to his father’s * funeral carrying deadly weapons?’’ **What did he carry the revolver for. don't know; but I imagine he anticipated a meeting with me.’ Didn't you carry one too?’’ ‘*I never carried a reyo)ver in my life. He told, on further questionin that he warned Mrs. Bertrand, then Louisa filler, not to marry his brother John, because be knew his temper, and that they would never agree. He sees now he was right, he remarked. He was asked if he would be willing to take care of Edith, and he answered very prom ptly he would. MRS. BERTRAND TAKES THE STAND. At 11:30 o’ciock, after two and ‘one-half 1 Waiting nervously in the court room, Mrs. Louisa Bertrand was called on the stand. She gave her full name and maiden name, and said she was born in Williamston, Del., and wentto ber sister’s home in Alton, III., in 1879. She then came to St. Louis with her sis- ter, Mrs. Max Bertrand. **I met John Bertrand in the winter of 1879 at my sister’s house, where he was livin She said in reply to ‘a question by Mr. Mc n- tire as to when she met Mr. Bertrand. ‘*Llived with my sister here three months,’’ she continued, ‘‘and then married John Bertrand March 28, 1880, on Chambers street. We went to Mrs. Parkburst’s at 1207 Chambers street, where we lived six months. I then went to live with my sister again at 4320 North Fourteenth street. I remained there about one year or there- abouts. My husband was with me all this time. Edith was born at my sister’s house, December 30, 1881, and since then has never left my side one night. After leaving my sister we went to live on Twentieth street. My sister furnished part of the house and my husband the other part. We lived there about three months. I again returned to my sister. TREATED HER WELL AT FIRST. My husbaud treated me pretty well while at Mrs. Parkhurst’s,’’ she answered when asked how her husband treated her. She was asked to be more explicit. „He was cross, crabbed, arbitrary. „He would never allow me to comb my hair banged. He said Iwasa married woman and not a girl. He threatened to strike me if I went to my sister’s, and he threatened to leave me. At other times he treated me kindly.’’ As she answered the question she became greatly agitated. Her limbs shook, her lips trembled and she seemed in great agony. Her little daughter, who had watched her closely, ran to her withacupofwater. Sbe was com- pelled to halt occasionally and compose her- self. „ BOTTLE OF COLOGNE WAS SPILLED by my sister’s chiidren,and when he returned home,’’ she continued, be said he would break my head, ‘‘Again, when I refused to give the baby paragoric. he said he would make me, and caught me dy the shoulders and knocked medown. My sister came in just as Edith Bertrand Ifell and asked John if he intended to kill me. He beld me down and said he would make me obey him. I did not want to dose the child ,as I had given herother medicine, and that is why I refused to give the paragoric.’’ »Was there any other time, Mr. McEntire asked ‘‘when he treated you ‘violently ?’’ ‘*Yes he left me once, she answered. „Once he wanted to go to see a friend and asked me to take the baby, who was then only two weeks old. As the child had no nice clothes I refused to take her to a friend’s par- lot, bat would go out walking. HE FLEW INTO A RAGE and swore around a great deal.’ Won did your husband first strike you?“ Mr. McEntire inquired. „„The first time John struck me has been re- lated bere several times. I went out and John said xO out Easter Sunday Boyd's church, on Beaumont and Locust streets. I asked him for car fare, hut he said he bad none for me, sol walked all the way from Ferry street to the church and home again. Igotin about 3 o’clock and met John on the back porch. He asked me what I meant by staying out all day. He said. ‘How dare you do that?’ I asked him to give me Edith. Herefused. Ireached for the child and he drew . 4 saying, ‘You will go out, will you?

BETTERS ‘‘WELCHED.’’ A Couple of Strange Bookmakers Do Up the Patrons of Pool Alley. Two cunning young men did up the betters in pool alley Saturday. Thureday a young man giving the name of Willard rented space in Callahan’s room inthe alley and opened a book on the races. Saturday another young man who recently arrived here from New Orleans and was known by the sobriquet of ‘*‘Duteh Fred, opened a book in Julius Lang’s pool-room. When Eon was selling at. the track at 4 to 5 and all the other book- makers in the alley were laying similar odds against the horse, these two e individuals offered even money 6 to 5 againsthim. Willard took in over $300 on this race and one which was run on the Chicago |. track at the same time. Eon won and Willard stood to lose over $600 o that race and the one at Chicago, 80 Instead of waiting to cash tickets, he beat a hasty re- treat through the cigar store, leaving an an- gry crowd of betters benind him. ‘*‘Duteh Fred’’ played the same trick, but did not get as much money. Pat Callahan, from whom Willard rented, is said to have lost over $100 the bookmaker’s flight, hay- the money on Eon. men were strangers in the city and are believed to be professional sharpers. The people who were Welched“ will 8 not be tempted in future by — odds to bet their money in irresponsible ooks.

One of Them Plays Masher and Roughly Handles a Young Lady. By Telecranh to the Post-DisPaTon. New York, June 30.—If there is anything which John McKane, Chief of the Coney Island police,considers perfect in his domain, itisthe police force. But yesterday, while 100,000 persons were disporting themselves upon the strip of sand, Mr. McKane’s police force received a large black eye. In the throngs of persons who were sauntering along the Ocean avenue, near the old iron ler wes Miss Annie Clark, a pretty German girl, 20 years old, arrayed in her finest. She lives in New York. As she was looking at some photographs near the avenue a well-dressed man accosted ber. She turned quickly and said: Go away from me. to do with you. „But 1 do with you, the man retorted, **come, take a walk.’ wad | won't, Leave me, orl’ill call a police- man. lam 1E ane if you don’t come with me I'll arrest Miss Clark warde the man off as he reached for her arm, and then with a curse he seized her and deliberately began tearing the girl’s clothing from her. Her dress, an expensive one and elaborately trimmed, was ripped by his struggles to quiet tie girl, and though guitetwo hundred persons assembled about the pair none of them seemed desirous of in- terfering as the man, while he was pounding the girl and tearing her clothin shouted: Lemme alone, l'm an officer. ’ The un- fortunate girl’s screams finally brought a policeman to the spot and the station was very nearathand. He had the assailant and his victim before Chief McKane, who at once recognized the assailant as Samuel_Tansey, a policeman of the Coney Island force. * Me Kane heard the girl’s story and upon the fellow becoming abusive, knocked him down and ordered him to be locked up. Miss Clark wasin a pitiabie plight. Her costume was almost ruined, and ber arms and sides, where Taneey bad grasped her, were badly bruised. Chief McKane and two or.three of his assist- ants managed, by use of pins, to make ber comparatively presentable. Then she hur- ried home. Tansey was locked up in the Coney Island Jailaiinight and will be called upon to answer the charge of assault upon Miss Clark this morniug. Idon’t want anything The Glebe for Flaunel shirts.

New Tonk, June 30.—Supt. Fuller of the Detective Bureau has rescued one of the four girls enticed from a Connecticut town a few weeks ago for unlawful purposes by a woman supposed to be the notorious Blanche Doug- lass.

After a search oftwo days she was found and re- turned to her home. She said she met a pre- possessing woman in Meridian, Conn. some time and on invitation cume to city and went with her to a flat near Central Park. There she meta young man and drank some wine. Sue knew no more until she found berself locked in a room in a house near Hoboken, and discovered thatshe had been ruined.

By Telegraph to the Posr-Disrarcn. JEFFERSON Orrr., Me., June 30,—Attorney- General Wood2his morning dismissed the old proceedings against Simmons’ Hardware Co. of St. Louis for violation of the anti- Trust law, and immediately flled a quo warranto information. The information charges that the defendant is a corporation incorporated under the laws of Missouri with respect to the incorporation of business companies, for the purpose of carrying on a general hard- ware and cutlery business in the City of St. Louls, that in violation of law it has greatly perverted, abused and misused ite corporate powers by creating, entering into and by becoming a member of and party to certain pools, trusts, agreements, combinations and confederations with cer- tain other corporations, partnerships, in- dividuals, persons and associations of per- sone for the purpose of regulating and fixing the price of axes, tools, hammers, picks, mattocks, screws, table, cutter, carriages, machine and tire bolts, plated ware, files, strap hinges, spring balances and scale beams, stocks and dies, tinners’ tools, brass kettles, enameled ware, tinware, guns and ammunition goods, powder, ratohe te, copper, rivete and burrs, planes, steel goods and saws and limiting and fixing the amount and quantity to be produced, manufactured and sold, thereby creating a monopoly with respect to said article injuri- ous to trade and commerce. The informa- tion asks for a dissolution of the corporation and a forfeiture of its charter. Another ground upon which a forfeiture is asked ‘‘a separate count’’ is the “failure of said ‘‘Sim- mons Hardware Co.“ to report to the Secre- tary of State under oath whether it was a member of or party to any pool, trust, agree- ment combination or confederation with any other corporation, partnership, individals, person or association of persons to regulate and x the price + of any article of merchandise, of commodity, or to limit, or fix the amount or quantity to be produced, or sold as required by the act of the Legisiature, approved May 18, 1889, prohibiting pools, trusts, etc. The court issued a writ returnable the first | day of the October term. NEISER KNOCKED OUT. Judge Sherwood rendered an opinion in the Neiser- Thomas contest, over the office of City Marshal of St. Louis. The case is decided in favor of Em Thomas. Two points were presented: first, that the ordinance under which the special electionfor City Marsball was held is void; and second, that there was no vacancy in the office. Both points are reviewed at length by Judge Sherwood and both held to be ground- less. This decision practically setties the City Marshalsbip troubles. When Thomas defeated McClelland in the late special election Neiser went to the Supreme Court direct on a writ of error. Neiser claimed that there was nova cancy In the office of City Marshal, that Mayor Noonan had no lawful right to order a special election, and that even had he the right to order 1 special election the Australian system should have been used. The decision rendered to-day is against Neiserin every particular and firmly establishes Thomas in the office to which he was by the people twice chosen. THE ROGERS CASE. The demurrer filed by Frank M. Estes, at- torney for H. L. Rogers in the St. Louis School Board contest, against the St. Louis Court of Appeals, was overruled. Rogers is granted sixty days in which to reply tothe return. This will gend the case over to the October term. WHAT THE DECISION MEANS. The scales of justice have forever balanced in favor of the Millerites, as the overruling of the demurrer in the Rogers case is practi- cally 1 victory for their side. Mr. Estes procured a writ of prohibition from the Supreme Court to prevent the Court of Appeals ousting Rogers. The writ came too late as Rogers had already been ousted. The Court of Appeals was served with the writand fled a return, setting forth all the facts under which they ousted Kegers and showing cause why they did so. Mr, Estes demurred to the return, saying even if ali the fucts therein contained were true it consti- tuted no defense. The court presumes all the facts in a return to be true, and did 80 in this case, It overruled the demurrer, and as the same facts Will be ergued upon before the case is decided it practically ends it now. Mr. Estes has been given sixty days to lle a | reply to the return. A decision may be looked for next spring. - — — MISSOURI SUPREME COURT. Handed Decisions Down This Merning.

NEW YorRK, June 80.—Had the feeling of in- dignation gone just a little higher in Orange yesterday, considerable difficulty would have been experienced in preventing the lynching of Charles Ingraham, a colored coachman, 26 years Old. Wednesday afternoon pretty little Lizzie Miller, who tis only Il years old, was as- saulted by Ingraham in his employer’s stable, which she had been induced to enter. After the assault Ingraham fied. Detective Conroy of Orange and Prosecutor’s Detective Volk traced him to Richfield Springs,N. I., aud wentthere for him. Fearing deiay if they should arrest him in New York State, they re- sorted to strategy and induced him to return to Orange with Detective Volk, who claimed to represent his employer, Conroy keeping out of sight but going on the same train. Volk left the train at Newark, and when Ingraham stepped off at Orange Saturday night Conroy arrested him. Yesterday he was arraigned before Justice Davis, and though he protested his innocence, the littie victim of his villainy identified him fully... The court-room was crowded with indignant citizens, and at times there were murmurs which voded iil for In- graham. Although no demonstration was made, Ingraham was badiy frightened, and after being remanded was at once taken to the county jail m Newark. His victim's inju- ries are serious, and it was said last pight that they might result in death. 810 TO CINCINNATI AND RETURN, $8 to Louisville and Return, Via the Oblo & Mississippi Rall way, and one fare for round trip to all other local stations on account of the national holiday; also to Springfield, Urbana, Mansfield, Akron, Col- umbus and other points in Ohlo.

REPORTS SHOWING AN UNUSUALLY SMALL, BUT UNUSUALLY FINE WHEAT CROP- The Farmers of the Lower River Districts Report That They Have Largely Over- estimated Their Wheat Crop—Less Than Half a Crop Expectcd— Excellent gane of the Wheat. The question as to the amount of the 1890 wheat cropisoneinwhich great interest is felt by the members of the Merchants“ Ex- change and concerning which wide differences of opinion exist, All acknowledge that there will be a considerable shortage, but how great this shortage will be is a matter on which re- celvers and specniators are far from an agree- ment. A8 A RULE THE MILLERS are inclined to the opinion that the deficiency Will not amount to over 25 per cent, while many exporters and speculators place it at more than half. The dealers in wheat sacks, an article with which st. Louis supplies a very large section of the country, are of the opinion that there will not be more than halfacrop, and state that their orders are far below those of former years, while in many cases they have been too large, as is evident by the fact that from within lower river districts fully halt the wheat sacks that were ordered and shipped have been returned. DISCOURAGING REPORTS. This morning Hewitt, Sharpe & Co., who have a large trade in sacks in the district lying between &t. Loalis and Cairo, inaciuding both JDlinols and Mis souri river points, received letters which would indicate that the shortage is greaterthan has generally been supposed. The wheat grown in this section is usually of very fine quality and the crop is always watehed with great interest, as it is about the first wheat ready for market, and serves as an indication of what may be expected from other quarters. This wheat has been harvested and threshed, and the farmers know exactiy what the crop amounts to, a condition of affairs different from that in other sections, where the unharvested crop can only be estimated. The farmers report that the crop has fallen far below their expectations, amount- ing to far less than half the ordinary yield, and scarcely half of what was expected two months ago. After threshing the highest average reported is ten and a half bushels to the acre, and this is a figure seldom reached, the averages running from nine to seven bushels. in no part of the down-river region ts half a crop reported, and in many cases the farmers state that they have only between a quarter and a third of a _ crop. The threshing has been highly unsatisfactory as far as amount is concerned, asin every inetance the estimates made on the basis of the standing crop have proved to have been far in excess of the real ty. Letters were also received by other dealers in sacks and Dy commission men stating that the same condition of affairs prevailed in Kentucky and Tennessee, where the haryested crop had fallen far below the estimate. EXCELLENT IN QUALITY. As universal as the reports of a small yield were the accounts of the excellent quality of such wheat as had been harvested. Thisis represented as being us much above the average in quality as it is below the average in quantity. The crop may be very short, but what there is of it is un- guestionably very wood indeed. From tie down river district wheat raisers write that the average grade of their grain will be higher than ever before. The grain is clean, dry and free from chaff, and the berriesare plump and firm. There will be an unveual proportion of No. land No. 2 wheat sent to this market, and a comparatively small percentage of the lower grades. At Coat. Men’s Fine Shoes.

Why It Was Fixed On as a Site for a New Unten Depet—Mr. Barzey Dees Not Kiew Whe the Mysterious Purchaser of Hie Residence Is—Mill Creek Valley Is Overcrowded— Open Cuts and Hand- some Bridges to Obviate the Difficul- ties of Crossing te Washington Avepue and Twenty-secend Sitreet—Railread Officials All Beticent. The exclusive announcement in the SUNDAY Post DISPATCH that the new Union Depot will be erected on Washington avenue, near Twenty-second street, caused considerable excitement among the owners of property in the district principally interested. Several of these were aware that property was being acquired in a wholesale, if stealthy, manner, and as they suspected that it was wanted for depot and terminal purposes they have been regulating prices accordingly. Buttothe buik of the readers of the SuxpDAY PosT-DIsPaTcH the informa- tion came asa revelation and as an agreeable surprise. So far as passengers are concerned a new depot there will be much more acces- sible than the old one. The Washington avenue electric road and the Olive street cable will take passengers to and from the Gepot, not only from down towa, but also from all parts of the West End, and to an immense number of residents the new depot will be within comfort- able walking distance. The announcement by the SunNDAY Post-DiIsPATCH was not part of the programme by the railroad companies, whose agents desired to acquire more realty before prices commenced to g0 up. Purchases continue to be made and it is safe to say more money has been expended for terminal purposes in St. Louis within tbe past six montbe than in any other city in the Union, during the same length of time. The depot pians have been announced. The execution may be delayed, asthey may be changed, butto-day the plan is as already outlined. I 16 REEDED. The man has yet to be found who denies that St. Louis needs a new Union Depot. The sheds which at present do duty are utterly inadequate for the purpose. hen it rains those who are at the depot have to seek sheiter, while the tracks are quickly flooded, and in hot weather the heat is awful indeed. The depot is a great drawback to the city’s prosperity. Peopiewho pass through and change cars at the depot are apt to form the impression that the city is old and dilap- rdated like its depot and many hundred thou- Sand doilars have been diverted from invest- ment in &t. Louis by this idea. People who use the depot frequently curse it heartily. They are in constant danger of being run Gown by atrain, a switch engine, an express Wagon ora baggage truck. The traffic keeps on inoreasing, the time-cards show more trains each month tham the preceding one, but stilithe old depot ellnge on. The travel- ing community laughs at the depot and incl dentally at the city which submits to such ua thing in ite midst. The railway companies also suffer from the inefficiency of the depot, and to this fact may be attribute’ the activity which is being dis- played towards getting a new Union Depot erected. The public may suffer, get burt aud mplein, but corporations have no con- fences and treat complaints with calm in- difference. But ifthey have no consciences, they certainly have banking accounts, and when these are in danger of being touched remedies are speedily sought. Hence the decision to bulid a Union Depot which will be more convenient for all parties and more profitable tothe railroad companies, TBE TERMINAL BOARD. ' The Union Depot is lu the handsof a Ter- m Board, on which six proprietary inter- represented—the Missouri Pacific, the untain, the Big Four, the Ohlo& pi, the Louisville & Nashville and the Wabasn. Dr. Taussig is Chairman of the Board, which bas for some time been discuss- ing the — 1 — ofa location for the new depot. Jay Gould is credited with favoring a through depotand utilizing the present site for freighttrafiic, while the majority of the Board eresaid to have outvoted the great man and gone in strongly for a pocket“ depot. However this may be, it is pretty cer- tain that whatever Jay Gould really wants done will, in the long run, be done. The great question in regard to the site is one of grade. The city Yises somewhat ab- ruptiy on both sides fromthe Mill Creek Vai- ley, and the only break of any importance is in the vicinity of Nineteenth and Twentieth streets, where the old Camp Spring Valley runs. This is the natural route for a road, running out of the valley ataslicht grade, and the lay of the land is so obviously adapted for the purpose that one of the largest of the city’s sewers ruuning north and south is laid along it The new depot must undoubtedly be north of the present tracks. On the south there is no convenient ground available for the purpose, and theinciine also would be extremely incon- enient. Moreover, to locate the depot on % South Side would be to take it away from nore thickly settied districts of the city 40 away from tbe great manufacturing Susiness center. These views struck the road people at once, and they lost no time 4 ——— quietiy to work buying up the Seeded real estate to place the depot where it ' will be most convenient to themselves and also convenientto the public. The SUNDAY PostT-DIsPATCH yesterda exclusively de- scribed the location and before long actual work will commence on whatitis reasonable to suppose will be as great a credit to the city as the old depot is a disgrace. EX-COUNCILMAN DEVOY’'S VIEWS. Ex-Counciiman Ed Devoy, who has the rep- utation of being one of the best posted men on railroad matters in the olty, returned yes- terday from a vielt tothe Mammoth Cave, in Kentucky and in speaking about the new Union Depot scheme with a Post-DIsPpaTcu reporter to-day gave some very interesting information about the efforts of the roads to secure asite for a depot aud as to how they would proceed in case it has been decided to ulld the depot on Washington avenue and Twenty-second street. Mr. Devoy said: **Of course I know nothing about where you got your information about the aetermination of the railroad com paniesto build a new Union Depot on Twenty-second and Washington avenue, butI am disposed tothink that there is something in it. The railroads for some oy t have been crowded to death In the ill Kk Valley, and unless they can «et more room some of them will before long have to run their tracks some- whe Ise. The necessity of a new de been imperative for a long time, and it would bave been bullt sev- eral years ago if it had not been for the trouble Gut aste, Ons of the sites proposed was © property between Twelfth and Fourteenth atrevtse. Well, in the fret place that would not be a very desirable place to put up a mag- nificent new Coper, and in the next that space will, in he future, be required for yard room. Another site roposed was between Eighteenth and wentieth on Olark avenue. It was also reported atone time that Winkelmeyer’s Brewery bad been purchased by the rallroads and that the mew depot would be crec on that site, facing on Market street. But there are none of e sites which I have mentioned which are not more or less objectionable. To the Twenty-second and Washine- avenue site, however, there would be no jon. The depot would be in the central ould face ons at it would be better to road would and Wasn; N “a t * t i a ETS see we DA > ie. ae vg AMA a ee " * 7 * F “ g . *. * . * . — 7 5 1 ‘ Oe - would at ont a grant deal Sat then the fared Fe put out abou to into Oh „ and Ido not n is roads $5,000, over to Twenty-second a Was avenue. And then the objections would not as great Be poses The aistrict. which tracks would a manufacturing district and 1 by the t gh of an olive cut. Market street, Chestnut, Pine and Olive could be bridged with. substantial and nice- appear structures, and the cut would not interfere in the slightest with traffic on these thoroughfares. The depot would probably be bullt onthe plan of the Minneapolis Depot; that is to say, the passengers would have to o down stairs to board the trains. It may be, owever, that the topography of that land is such that the trains coald be brought up to the level; I don’t know about that. ‘*Oould a bill giving such a right of way gotten through the Council do you think?’ „Well Ishould think it ought not to take more thana week to pass a bill of that kind. It would do no damage to the-dis- trict and would give St. Louls what she wants—a fine new depot in a central location. The depot of course would be used for passenger trains only, and instead of hurting the district would give It life. By bullding the depot there the roads, too, would accomplish what is the great prob- lem with them now, and that is to get more room for handling freight. Of course, there would be objections to it, as there is to every move that is bold and progressive. „One of the best jokes of the Council of which I wasamember was Mr. Nelson Cole’s ob- jection to thelaying of granite on Market street. He said that granite would make too much noise, and at the same time he was run- ning a sawmill on the same street. ‘*‘Anothner objection I recall, which goes to illustrate how unreasonable some people are was that made by a man agaipst the Gratiot street track. Hecame to me one day and said that he recognized the necessity of a track there, but that he thought he ought to be protected in his rights and that the proj- ectors of the switch ought to buy his prop- erty of him. I said I thought so too, and asked him what he believed it was worth. He said $2,000. The same day I saw the gentie- man who was pushing the bill and told him that he ought to buy that man out. ‘**Buy him out!’ he exclaimed. ‘Why, that’s what we have been trying to do, but he won't sell.“ „He just told me,’ Isaid, ‘that he would take $2,000 for his place.’ „Were is he? I'll give it to him right now.’ ‘*That night the gentleman did profer the owner of the small — * of property a certi- fied check for $2,000, but the owner would not take it. When I saw him a few days after- wards I asked him why he had refused the check. „ ‘Oh, well, that’s all right, hesaid, ‘*I concluded that I would hold on.’ Well, my friend,’ said I, .if you people think that I, as a Councilman elected todo the best I can for the community, am going to pet up here and make values for you, you are very much mistaken. I had not at first in- tended to vote forthe bill, but now I propose to do so. WOULD BENEFIT THE DISTRICT. „Well, that man still has hie property, and bas since refused over twice what he was offered for it when tne bill to lay the track was pending. This goes to show that while a track may make the property alongside of it less desirable for residence or retail purposes than it has been before, it in- creases its value as a site for a warehouse. Now the property through which the railroads propose to pass to reach Twenty-second and Washington avenue, if the report of their intentions published in the Posr-DIsPaTcH is reliable, has long deen undesirabie for residence property, and the passing ofthe railroad tracks through the center of the district could not but increase the value of the land for manufacturing sites. Iam not surprised inthe least at the news that the new depot is to de located on Twenty- second and Washington avenue, andl think that there or Twenty-second and Olive streets would be an elegant location for It. WHO WAS THE BUYER? Mr. Charles E. Barney was seen this morn- ing at Scruggs, Vandervoort & Barney's store and asked concerning the reported pur- chase of his residence at the southeast corner of Twenty-third street and Lucas place by the Union Depot peopie. My residence has been sold, as I under- stand it, but who the purchasers are Ido not know, remarked Mr. Barney. All I know about it isthatI had placed it in Mr. Greer’s hands to be gold and Saturday he notified me that he had sold it. I was to have called on him that day to hear the particulars, but did not do so and do not know who the purchaser is nor for what purpose it was bought. ‘*The price paid was $25,000, was it not?’’ ‘‘I suppose so. That was the price at which I instructed Mr. Greer to hold it, and when he notified me be had sold the house I presumed he had received that price for it, otherwise he would not bave sold. The property has a frontage of 106 feet, and Mr. Catlin paid $200a footfor it when he purchased the ground, before the residence was erected. OF late the property has probably depreciated some for residence purposes, but it has improved for business purposes. It Is still avery desira- ble residence locality, however, and most of the people living in our block on the oppo- site side ofthe street own their own resi- dences. A call was made on Mr. R. C. Greer, the real estate agent, who made the sale at his office on Chestaut street. „have sold Mr. Barney’s residence, Mr. Greer said, but lam not at liberty to state who the purchaser was. It would scarcely benefit you any if I did, asIthink he merely represents another party. who is in the back- ground. „Is not this second party the Union Depot Co. ?““ „Who itis that is back ofthe sale 1 really do not Know. The man who purchased the property Saturday was to have called around this morning to close the deal and I expected him ere this, butup to this time he nas not put in an appearance.“ »The price was $25,000, was it not?’’ „es, it was $25,000 cash, andthatis just the amount Mr. * agg age for the property when he bought it. For what purpose the party purchased. I do not know, and I have pledged myself not to reveal the name of the purcbaser.’’ THEY HAVE BEEN BUYING PROPERTY. Ex-Delegate Tom Wand said this morn- ing that he believed the report that the depot was to de located at Twenty- second and Washington avenue was correct. ‘*‘There have been six oreight men that I know of! he said, who have been quietly at work for some time buying property between Washington avenue and the Mill Creek valley. I have all along suspected that the property was being acquired for railroad purposes. New Through Train Service.

BIG RUSH OF DEPENDENT PENSION ACT. Old Soldiers te Be Granted the Allowance Without Delay An Extra Force of Clerks Necessary te De the Werk Hendersen Leech’s Hard Luck — The National Election ui. WaAsHINGTON, D. O., June 90.—A very in- teresting yet sad story is told by. Henderson Leech of Hannibal, Mo., who came here an old and wounded soldier to obtain an in- crease of pension. Inquiring at the pension office, he found that additional testimony would be required in his case. To obtain this be had to return to Missouri. He had no means and the Congressman from his section could not assist bim. Finally Dr. Goff, formerly of that State, furnished him means to return home on. Leech’s service story was a long and interesting one. The strange part of his experience occurred at the pension office, where an old soldier, a doorkeeper witha good pension and some means, proposed to give up his position to Leech, provided it would be given him and none other, an offer of personal sacrifice seldom made. Congressmen Kinsey of St. Louis has with him his wife and two daughters. Congressman Wade called at the State de- partment this morning in the faterest of Col. Boyd of Springfield for a foreign place. To- morrow Mr. Wade will make his department calls prior to returning to the South west. The Dependent Pension Act. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30.—The old soldiers who are entitled to pensions under the dependent bill just approved by the Presi- dent are likely to have their claims adjudi- cated promptly. Itis estimated that under this lawfully a quarter of a million persons will be added to the pension roll, Gen. Raum, Commissioner of ensions, who is making every possible effort to meet this emergency, says: An additional allowance of some 440 clerks have been asked for because the present force has all it can do now. The new law will. accord- ing to the Senate estimate, put 800,000 more cases on the rolls. Ofcourse this calculation is more or less liable to be inaccurate. It would be impossible for the present force to handle all this extra work lu addition to what they are doing now, and so I have asked for more clerks. There are to be ten more principal examiners, I believe, and the others are to be divided through the various grades of clerks. No new divisions are to be created, but the work wil! be so divided that cases under the new law will move right along abreast of the old cases. It would be unjust to make claimants under this latest act wait and take their turn. 80 instead of putting the new cases behind the rest we will begin work on them at once and carry them right through as fast as poss'i- ble. Cases that are well presented, in which there are no unfavorable conditions, may be got through and adjudicated in a month, 1 shouldthink. We issued, just as soon as the President signed the bill, thonsands of pamphlets containing the text of the act, the rules governing cases under it, and blank forms for ciaiments to fill out. These are now being distributed to claimants and many are also Deing sent to Grand Army Poste for the information of members. The Natienal Electien Bill. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30.—It is certain three Republicans will vote against the na- tional election Obill, and the capital gossips have it that several other members of the majority party will also oppose it either by direct vote, or by ab- senting themselves when the vote is taken. The members who wilisurely vote against the bill are: Mesers. Ewart, North Carolina; Cole- man, Louisiana, and Lehlbech of New Jersey. It is sald that seven other Republicans, three from the South, one from New England and three from the West will vote no.“ It is known that of these are opposed to the but whether or not they will sacrifice party interests and vote against the measure is doubtful. Less than ten breaks among the Republicans in the House wouid defeat the bill. The Silver Hl. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30.—At present the probabilities are that there will de no conference on the silver bill until Wednes- day. Tae delay is caused by the absence of Representative Walker of Massachusetts, one ofthe Republican conferees of the House. Mr. Walker was appointed while away, and has been requested to return as soon as poss!i- ble, as both sides are anxious to dispose of the measure as soon as possibile. Milwaukee’s Apprepriation Increased. WASHINGTON, D.

There was little trading on the Mining Ex- change this morning, apd as a rule prices were lower. . — * The only stock in which there was any ac- tivity was La Union. Buyers and sellers had apparently agreed upon 11% as the proper price, and 3,200 shares changed hands with- Out any alteration being made in quotatiuns. — * Americen and Nettie was weak and the de- mand was light. The stock was freely of- fered at $1.90, but at thatfigure none could de sold. Bidding rose from $1.82% to $1.8 and 100 shares were transferred atthe latter price, the market closing at $1.82% bid. = — There was a sharp break in Central Silver, although few sales were made. The market opened at ll bid, butasale of 100 shares sent the price to 104%, and a similar sale depressed the stock to 10, at which 200 shares changed bands. On the curb a put of 1,000 shares at 10 was sold for $2.50, good until July 7. The Maj. Budd was sold this afternoon, but the result was not known in this ‘city at 4 o’clock. * Pat Murphy was in fair demand at 11%, but no stock was obtainable at toat figure, and later 200 shares were sold at 1242. > The following quotations were made on call in the Mining Exchange: Adams.

An interesting game of pool was played Sat- urday evening Detween L. Schrempp and M. C. Brown for 0 a side, the game consisting of 100 points. Brown won the game by mak- ing 95 points to Schrempp’s 78 points. The Grafimann-Schempp pigeon shoot wil take place to-morrow afternoon at the Caron- delet Gun Olub’s Grounds on the Barracks road.

At the close of the ninth inning the home club succeeded in getting two runs by errors, which concluded the game by a score of4to2in their favor. The pitching and catching of Jim McDonnell and Mike Ryan was a creditable piece of work for the visitors. The people residing around Broadway and Loughborough avenue complainin the most bitter manner ofa horrid stench that arises from a neighboring butcher store. The smell is alleged to be very bad and is, itis claimed, — vie | the lives of the inhabitants of that locality. In the rear of the sbop a siaughter-house is erected, where cows and sheep are kilied. The biood and meat that the butcher bas no need of is leftto ac- cumulate and naturaily in this kind of weather decomposes very rapidly. The stench thatarises from this is horrible, hence the complaint of the public. The police have Leen notified, but it seems impossible for them to prevent the nuisance. — — Men's Fine Shoes At Cost.

Is not Mr. Blaine in danger of destroying the great home market idea? — — — — THE attempt on the part of some Re- publican organsto make Bishop POTTER’s denunciation of pension demagogism appear as a denunciation of old soldiers and of pension liberality is totally un- warranted. Bishop POTTER merely con- demned the appeal to the soldier element and the endeavor to control the soldier votes through pension. appropriations. His attitude is practically: Millions for worthy veterans, but not a cent for ras- cals or for base political purposes. This is the position of the intelligent and hon- est people of this country. _ — ͤ -—— —E„ — THERE is nothing in which the people of St. Louis have a deeper interest than the building ofa new Union Depot. Rumors concerning the location of the depot and the time at which ground isto be broken have been current for some time past.

That great railroad terminals and a depot are to be constructed at Twenty-second and Washington avenue is the most important piece of | Louisans which has been | news to St. published for a long time. _—— — JUDGE TULEY of Chicago, in a vigorous letter on the subject of personal rights, properly denouncesthe exercise of abso- lute power over the liberty of citizens by police officers in the arrest and detention of ‘‘suspects” without warrant of law. This abuse of police power under the fostering work of detective agencies has grown into a monstrous evil. Outrages are committed upon innocent persons in this way in which justice is made a farce and the most sacred constitutional rights are violated. Itis an insidious phase of official despotism which a less free and patient people than Americans would not tolerate for an instant. — — — — ANS ERS IOO CoRRESFONDENT&. H. ©.

Song 4 Kn Me, og * ’ he Ae 5 — . 1 3 His Fourth Choice Believed to Be His Old Personal and Pelitical Friend, Fred Younsg—The Arsenal Island Litigation— Sprinkling Complaints—Appr Bill—City Hall Matters. The Mayor’s political friends are not 80 cer- tain to-day that O. F. Guthrie's name will zo to the Council to-morrow evening, but are rather of the opinion that Fred Young will be his fourth selection. It has heen the un- derstanding since Mr. Cullinane’s rejection that the next selection rested between Gutbrie and Young. Both are intimate friends of the Mayor and figured very actively in bis nomination and election. To-day a close friend of the Mayor gave it out quietly at the City Hall that Young had been decided upon and that his name would positively go to the Council to-morrow night. Young is one of the best known Democratic politicians lu the city and has an unquestion- ably strong pull. He is a traveling sales man for a whelesale liquor firm, and his friends say that, while he is not a civil engineer, he has enough executive ability to successfully manage the office. The Council wants an engineer, how- ever, and for thatreason his chances of con- firmation are regarded as very sum, even if he is appointed. The action of the Council in rejecting the Mayor’s nominations has not as yet had the effect of causing His Honor to weaken in his determination not to appointa civil engineer. He insists stilithat an engineer is not needed at the head of that department, and that he does not propose to place a pro- fessional engineer in the place vacated by President Burnet. Mayor Noonan was seen by a Post-DISPATCH reporter about II o’clock to-day and asked it there was anything to be looked for in the Street Commissioner business. He replied thathe would send in a name to-morrow evening, but would not state who the ap- pointee would be. . Police Iacrease Bill. The Council Committee on Police and Work- house will meet this afternoon to consider the new police bill which bas passed the House of Delegates and which provides for 100 additional men on the police force. The bill passed the House of Dele- gates without a hitch, and nearly all the members of that body are strongly in favor of it. In the Council, however, the adverse sentiment is somewhat strong, and the proba- bilities are that the bill will be considerably altered and the number of new men reduced at least one-haif on the ground of expense and a lack of funds inthe Treasury. The House of Dele- gates on the other hand is said to be planning a large iucrease ofthe police „ in the coming general appropriation bill. Do the tprinkling Inspectors Inspect? There is trouble brewing in the sprinkling end of the Street Department that Is liable to get above the surface and assert itself at any time. For more than a week complaints of ineffective sprinkling have been pouring into the Street Department frow all sections of the city. Some of the letters and verbal com- plaints indicate that whole localities were completely ignored by the sprinkling Carts. Notwithstanding these complaints, the six- teen sprinkling inepectorsin the city’s em- ploy have in most cases reported that the sprinkling came up to the requirements in their respective aistricts, It is now claimed that a number of these in- spectors do not pay as much attention to their districts as is required by the ordinance and instructions given them by Supt. Brown. Itis hinted in City Hall circles to-day that a lively shaking up of the inspection force would take place ere long. The Arsenal Island Dispute. City Counselor Bell will go to Springfield, III., next week to defend the second Arsenal Island case, which is set for trial in the United States Circuit Court on the 7th prox. The first case, Which was brought by Edward Rutz, is now pending in the Supreme Court of the United States. The second case is brought by Henry T. Morton of Cincinnati, who owns the survey on the IIIinole shore adjoining Rutz on the north. Mr. Bell will take with him a numberof ancient documents relating to the title of the city tothe island, and will be accompanied by witnesses who remember the island fifty years ago when it was neur the Missouri! sbore and two wiles above its pres- entloggtion. The information gained on the lath ! „ when the Mayor and party made a voyage of discovery in ayaw! and navigated between the island and the Illinois shore, will be made use of upon the trial. The oon test over the possession of this isiand is be- coming an interstate controversy between Illinois and Missouri, and presents many novel questions for the determination of the courts. On Wednesday a party will make a trip around the island on the uarbor boat for the purpose of gaining information to be used when the case comes up. Several photo- graphie appliances will be on hand and a series of pictures showing the location of the Island, the width of water between it and the shore, the Government work and other points will be taken and used as testimony. The General Appropriation Biil. The House Committee on Ways and Means took carriages this morning and rode out to the institutions to ascertain their needs for the ensuing year. This committee tras the general appropriation bill now in band, aud the visit this morning was made as part of its plan of considering the measure. The members of the com- mittee nake no secret of their intention to materially alter the bill with amendments before they report it to the House. They propose, theysay, to have a thing or two to say about the funds appropriated, as well as the same committee in the Council. The Council committee, they charge, gave them no voice in the preparation of the Dill, and they now propose to have their inning. It has been the custom for the two committees to sit to- gether in the preparation of the bill, but the Council committee went it alone this year. The impression prevails that the House will insist on an increased appropriation for police purposes to enable the board to put on addi- tional men. To raise the necessary funds it will be necessary to drawfrom some of the other departments. The Council, it is under- stood, will refuse concuriepce in any sweep- ing amendments. A CRIPPLED TELEGRAPH OFFICE. Western Union Operators Refused Pay fer Overtime. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPaTcu. NEW ORLEANS, La., June 30.—Not since the strike of 1885 has the Western Union Telegraph Office at this point been more seriously crip- pled than atthe presenttime. Eighteen men on the night force have resigned and gone elsewhere to seek employment. The reason for this lies inthe fact that the management refuse to allow the men pay for over time. The regular hours of those employed on the night force begin at 5:80 o’ clock and end, or rather should end, at lo’ciock a. m. It not infrequently happens that the men are obliged to work from one to five, and in some cases six hours without compensation, The departure of eighteen operators has entailed an amount of work on those left behind which they are unable to dispose of in a manner at all satisfactory to the 2 So great was the dissatisfaction on the part of the men thatevery one on the force, with the exception of one man, ed a petition in whieh the com was quested to pay over time. also added that shouid their they would resign their posith | pany replied that their resi accepted.

So St. Louis did not reach fifth place. The Posr-Disraron, in voicing the cry of the people for a recount, has spoken of the prob- ability of such a calamity, 0 St. Louisans will not be taken by surprise even though the re- turns from Baltimore are vastly greater thau any one supposed they would be and than her supervisor said they were. Baltimore has hitherto concealed her census if these figures are correct and sens out false ones as a cloak to conceal her work. The reasons why St. Louis has fallen so far behind fifth piace have been pointed out too often to need repetition now. Care- less, inefficient work, perfunctorily per- formed by incompetent men, is the cause,and the lack of a well-constructed system. The evils are many, the errors enormous and the omissions may be counted by thousands, Everyone believes and has reason to believe that 8t Louls has a population far greater than that given above. Whether it is sufficient to give this city fifth place is not known. There are those who say it is ab- surd to think that 60,000 people have been missed, yet ask the first seven persons you meet whether they have been enumerated and the chances are that at least one of them will say he has not. Ii this proportion is pre- served then it will represent enough omis- sions to bring the population to 500,000 and more. A HUGE INJUSTICE. There are thousands of citizens who bave not been counted because they are out of the eity and because many of the enumerators were not informed, or else could not be made to understand that whatthey hadto count was not the oitizens of St. Louis here at the time but all the citizens, no matter where they might be. Enumerators leit blankes at boarding and private houses which were filed up but never called for. One instance is known of an enumerator losing a schedule which contained a number of names. Thousands were lostin another way. Young men who live in rooms leave for business be- fore the slothful enumerator starts to work in the morning and do not return until he has stopped work in the afternoon. The enumer- ators could not cateb them at their sleeping places and were ordered not to take them at their places of business, so they were ex- cluded altogether, and their name is legion. These and many other injurious ways were resorted to by the enumerators, who thus sk [pped thousands of people anp did St. Louis —— unge injuatice of ranking her sixthin the ist. THE ONLY REMEDY. There is only one way tocorrectthis wrong and that isto recount the whole city and in- clude ln the enumeration every inhabitant. No one wishes to count anybody twice, though Maj. Weigel has cast this slur upou the _ ocitizens of St. Louis. All the city wants is a fair and full count, and that she bas not had. Let every building in the city be visited, and every per- son in it counted, and then it is easy enough to strike off doubles. This Is done in com- Pilling the directory, and an accurate list is obtained. It will give St. Louls a full and correct count, and place her in the list of cities where she belongs. The last of the incorrect schedules will be shipped to-night, They were all packed this morning, and will be forwarded this evening. Maj. Weigel is now engaged making up the accounts of the enumerators. The country schedules will be in in a few days. The Supervisor said that he bad re- ceived letters from the enumerators in ten districts, — that the heat had delayed them. Hunting for farmers in the open fields is hot work and they badto lay up foratime to prevent being overcome. On this account their time in these ten districts will be ex- tended one week, soon July 7 the work will all be finished, and arbre! Boa’ July 10 the last of it will be on its way to Washington. HAVE YOU SEEN A GHOST? An Interesting Question Propounded by the ‘Sunday Post-Dispatch.’ Among the many interesting features of yesterday’s SUNDAY fPosT-DISPATCH was a series of questions on the supernatural. The American representative of the Society of Experimental Psychology is seeking Infor- mation as to the actual number of persons who have seen, felt or heard ghosts, and under what condition they have seen them. At hie request the SUNDAY Post-Dis- PATCH is obtaining the information from this —— of the country. Every reader of the OST-DISPATCH sbould anewer these ques- tions. The man who has never seen a ghost —and who probably Delieves no one else ever has—can dispose of the matter very promptiy, but the man who has actually seen a ghost, or who has been touched by something super- natural, will have something more interesting to tell. The questions are well worded and to the point. They are as follows: THE QUESTIONS. : „ Have you ever, when dellering yourself to be: : completely awake, had a vivid impression of see- : Ing or being touched by a living being or inani- : mate object, or of hearing a voice, which impres- . : sion, so far as you could discover, was not due to: any external physical cause? g 1.

June 80.—Police Justice Duffy site in Harlem nowadays. May be he wishes he bad left that baillwick some days ago. There is alittie private room in the Harlem Court, as there is in every court, where justice is dispensed in small batches, or where the fiver brands of justice are dealt. When business is dull, it is more convenient to sitthere in an easy chalrand earn your $8,000 a year in comfort than to be perched up on a Woo! sack in a barn of a court-room with all the clerks and door men and tipstaves and supernumeraries and flUummery ot Justice’s Temple." 80 Seve was Sabbath and a slim Sabbath at hat, and the Judge sat in his little audience- room as the King did in his counting-room in the old doggerel. Then and there did come tor justice Aetel W. P. Wier, a clerk of the Guion Steainship Co., who is charged with the wickedest intentions toward Eva Romen- lin. But that is of no matter here. The case was an old adjourned one, and deféendant’s counsel was not ready. The baidheaded littie Judge had heard numberiess such stories be- fore. All he could do when a further ad- journment was asked for was to clap the pris- oner under bail and let it go. Can your client get ball?’’ the Judge asked. es, sir, said counsel. Vom do you offer as bondsman?’’ | No one, Sir. „Wat?“ The ‘‘what’’ was very laconic. No one, sir,“ anewered the barrister. We offer a bondswoman.’’ Now Judge Duffy appreciates a good thing Inthe way of a joke. He would not be a Duffy it he did not. So he was smiling all right enough when Mrs. Sarah A. Hall, wife of a music publisher, came forward and volunteered her signature as surety upon the bond of Wier. Is there any person here,’’ called the Judge, ho can identify and vouch for you?“ Mrs. Hall was smiling softly. Itbink you ought to be able to do that yourself, Judge, she said. The Judge’s mouth was open and his face was bland enough. I'“ said he. es, you, Judge. 2 he could not remember her to save his Ss. “‘Why, Judge, don’t you remember me? Think again; think hard. Why, lam Sarah A. Kerybeck.’’ A half light was dawning on the features of the man of law and equity. ‘‘Kerybeek, Kerybeck!’’ said he. Judge Duffy used tobea school teacher. Everybody knows that. He was famed asa pedayogue long ere he held down the bench. ‘*Why, yes, KRerybeck. It waslthat was a teacher in the First Ward School when it was yourself, your Honor, that was the principal, Why, Judge, don’t yor remember you asked me to marry you once?’’ Well, upon my soul,’’ gasped his Honor, **I think you tell the truth; but I suppose you are glad you refused me?“ 1 glad, was the laconicreply of Mrs. ail. Duffy accepted her bond,and In his desire to escape the siniles and winks of the court of- ficers and reports grabbed his sun umbrella and dashed down the stairs without bis hat. He was reminded by the officers on duty at the door that his bead was uncovered. And yet, when Sarah A. Kerybeck said ‘*No’’ to the principal so many years ago, she went home and half reproached berself and was sorry she — been called upon to break a good man’s eart. CLUBS FOR WOMEN, A Plan for Giving Homes to the Se!f-Sup- porting Tollers, The preliminary steps are being taken in a movement in the interest of working girls and self-supporting women which promises to soon assume large proportions. A number of well-known people, with Mrs, M. R. Skinner at their head, are ready, if the responses to a circular sent out tothe working women of St. Louls are favorable, to form a corpora- tion, not a charity, which shall aim to benefit wagerearning women by co-operation with them. The purpose is to open one or more houses where respectable wage-earning girls and women can, out of their earnings, no matter how smal! they are, have a clean, healthy sani- tary, cheerful home, with board and lodging, bath and laundry; a home where when with- out work or means they can get credit till they get work. In connection with each one will de a free em ployment office, which will be a medium between employer and employed not for the inmates alone, but for all who wish to take ad- Vantage of it. In each wiil oe a reading room for the use of those in or out of the house, open at all hours for rest, and a homelike and comfortable piace to spend evenings. They propose, besides at these houses, to organize, upon request, in different parts of the city, business and working giris’ clubs, to be open every evening in the week. These ciubs will be on the plan of those now in existence and very popular in New York, Boston, Brooklyn hiladelphia, London and elee- where. Reading rooms will be opened with games and other recreations, lectures, enter - talnments and classes in such BRANCHES OF EDUCATION asthe members of any circle or elub may de- sire, as dressmaking, shorthand, type writ- ing, cooking, singing by note, or the usual night school classes. Some of these classes willbe free; in others there will be asmali charge to pay for material and a competent teacher.” They propose to protect women from being defrauded. Workingwomen are beaten out of enormous sums every year by conscience- lees agents. . An attorney willbe employed to prosecute such cases of defrauding members of the club of wages as may be reported. wf They propose to submit plans of self-help and savings. They hope to be able to arrange at low cost for country board during vacations, or from Saturday until Monday. They propose to arrange for medical attend- ance, nedicine und nursing for self-support- ing women. The circular sent out isto ascertain if such an institution is needed ordesired. Those who need none of the things proposed are asked to volunteer their aid in carrying out the plans or to suggest others. They are also asked where they think such homes should be located, and at what points clubs would be desired. A capacious, airy house with plenty of yard, on Washington avenue near Eighteenth street is delng considered for one home and club. Also a house on Ohouteau avenne near Twelfth street, and one for a club on Olive street near Compton avenue. Those interested in the project have an office on the ground floor of the old v. M. C. A. building at Eleventh and Locust streets, entrance on Eleventh, and until July 5, from 11:30 a. m. to 12:30 p. m., and from 6:30 to 7:30 — m. they will be glad to see any interested a any way in the matter.

The Truck Drivers’ House, 288 Front street, was the liveliest place on the East Side last evening, notwithstanding the beat. The event which disturbed the quiet of the locality was a potato-eating match. The po- tatoes were of the Bermuda variety and were eaten smoking hot with their yellow jackets on. The back room where tbe contest took place was fliied with «as motiey a crowd as ever met at a sporting event in this city. Pium Fourth Ward maidens and children peeped in atthe windows and shouted to the centestants to fll themselves with the bot and — rota- toes. Lhe entries were Paddy, the Soldier, an ex-English soldier of Irish extraction, who has eaten raw goat’s flesh in the mountains of Afghanistan; Paddy Lee, an awaing maker; George, the Norwegian, called so because bis name is unpronounceabie; Mr. Bungs, the cooper; Tom Ryan, a back-yard singer, and Paddy Lee, a ‘longshoreman. John Malvihil! acted as referee and watched thatthe men did not choke, and Jack Sul van, a prize guter who wants to whip some- body, held the watch. The potatoes were served ina peach basket lined with a news- pepe, cae galt and pepper were provided. Six ig potatoes were placed in each of the six soun plates. Each man stood in an attitude of anxious suspense while the long hand of Mr. Sullivan’s watch traveled slowly around to 9:30 o’clock. Then a remarkabie scene of hot po- tato stuffing was seen. No one wasted time by stopping to remove the skins, and each was anxious to fill his mouth to its utmost capa- city. Paddy the Soldier used both baads in thie effort and succeeded admirably. He also succeeded in dropping a big potato into his shirt bosom, where it nestied hot against bis skin and forced him to remove it. ‘ithin a minute the scene became a mad scramble. Bungs the Cooper's cheeks were so much distended that he could scarcely wag his jaws. The condiments were over- looked in the struggle ior supremacy. The contest gradually narrowed down to a race between Paddy the Soldier and Mr. Bunge. The backyard singer was filled to repletion with n and dropped out sated and defeated. Paddy Lee quit with a burned mouth and afeeling of disappoint- ment. The Norwegian ‘‘wasn'tin t, as bis disgusted backer said. With one eweep of his big red hand Paddy, the Soldier, gathered in the fragments left on his plate and fell on his back on the floor exhausted and choking, but winning by one potato. It was neariy a minute beiore he could recover his breath. When he did the hero of Candahar exclaimed: d rudder eat a beef stew !’’ Sporting Nettes. Reclare won the Swift Stakes in very fast time, and with sometbing to spare. She was conceding weicht to everything that ran near her at the finish, and is now undoubtedly very near to her best form.

Trust Companies Assuming Nearly Aut the Burdensome Work of Making Payments —The Atchison’s Resumption of Obliga- tious — Some Changes in the Time of Payments, ; By Telegravh tothe Post-Disratcn. NEW YORK, June 80.—The Tribune presents a list of the payments on account of interest and dividends to be made during July by some ofthe leading banks, trust companies and other corporations of the metropolis. Is would be practically of little avail to under- take the work of estimating the amount of disbursements to be made next month, but in view of the large increase in the issue of rall- way bonds and in the securities of various industrial corporations made last year, it will be safe tosay that the amount returning to investors July ll shows a great increase over that of the corresponding month of 1889 and will be still larger than the payments made in January, 1890, when it was estimated that the grand total of money obligation fall- ing due was not far from $100,000,000. The ex tra dividend of the New York Central was pala In January, and this of course would tend to make the disbursements of that month larger than those of July, but, on the other hand, the amount paid out next month will be swelled by reason of the fact that the Atchi- son and several other companies have re- sumed the payment of their interest obliga- tions. The estimates of bankers vary consid, erably as to the total of payments next month, and they are mo doubt influenced in their calculations more or less by the amounts disbursed by their own firms. Then, too, a large proportion of the great railway systems of the country having offices in New York make their interest and dividend payments at their own office, which adds to the difficulty of getting at the prob- able aggregate. The work which was for- merly intrusted so largely to private banking firms of distributing Interest on bonds and dividends on stocks has become so burden- some that the management of the labor is being placed more and more in the hands of trust companies. In regard to the payments on account of bonds, the reorganization of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Feand of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas will swell the total amount. The payments of the Atchison that fell due in January, 1889, were $1,200,000 in round numbers. Next month the in- terest on the general mortgage * per cent gold bonds will amount to $685,140, the interest on registered bond certificates to $169,430 and the interest on coupon scrip to $5,586.37. These are payable in this city at the Union Trust Oo. The gen- eral disbursements of the year will also be increased by numerous other issues, among them thatof the Erie for the improvement of its terminals in Weehawken. There seems to be a growing disposition to make interest payable at some other time than JANUARY AND JULY, and one of the most recent illustrations of this is the announcement that the interest on the $6,000,000 taken by Drexel, Morgan & Co. of the issue of $15,000,000 4 per cent gold de- benture bonds of the New York Central & Hudson River Co. to be made simultaneously here and in London by J. S. Morgan & Co., is payable June land Deoember 1. Inthe following table some of the largest paymentsthat will be mads by banks and trust companies are given. The lists are necessarily not absolutely complete, and some changes may be made in them be- fore the dayson which obligations fall due, but they alve a fairly good idea of the tre- mendous and comprehensive business done in this city aud the myriads of Interests ail over the country which are represented here. These lastitutione disburse the larger amounts in the aggregate of the various fiscal agen- cies of corporations and their clientage covers practically the whole country.

There was a funny scene near the corner of Sixth and Pine streets yesterday afternoon. It was shortly after 12 o’clock and the heat was intense. Everybody who could afford to be lazy remained in the shade. Even the boot- blacks were taking it easy, and a num ber of the little gamins, black and white, had squatted down in a cool doorway on Sixth street, just around the corner from Pine. They were having a little experience meeting among themselves, and one dusky little bootbiack was telling a story of the chase the police gave him one night in New Orleans. About this time a weak eyed Chinaman hove in sight. He came north on Sixth street, car- rying a bundle of ‘‘washee-washee’’ under bis arm. He saw the gamins and shuffied across the street, thinking it best to take the sunny side than to ron the gauntlet. The boys saw the move and it made them mad. De heathen tinks his comp’ ny Is too rister- cratic fer dis sereſety. said one of the group. Watch we kotch de pig-tall wif dis clam,’’ muttered the black buy of the New Orleans experionce, The bootbiack had aclam-shell in his hand and he shied it at the Mongolian with the grace of a Japanese juggier. The rest of the crowd took the cue and soon the baskets of shells which stood on the sidewalk in front of Milford’s were emptied of their con- tents. Down the street on a run went the frightened Chinaman, with the horde of gam- ins close at his heels, showering clam-shells around the fugitive’s ‘head and yelling loudly. A policeman soon put in an appearance and the boys disappeared in a dozen different ai- rections. Several windows were broken alon the street, a beavy plate glass in front o Dozier’s cracker store being shattered. The Chinaman recovered his bundle from the street where it Bad been thrown and went chattering on his way. To the Summer Resorts of Colorado.

CHICAGO, June 30.—Ten thousand people as- sembied atthe annual games of the Turners’ Societies yesterday and listened toa letter from Judge Murray T. Tuley, which aroused decided interest. The letter was onthe sub- ject of personal rights. The preservation of Personal rights and the maintenance of liberty were, he said, eonvertible terms. After citing numerous incidents of the abridge- ment ofthese rights, such as arresting men without warrant and keeping them lu jail for days, the Judge said: It ie time, I say, not only to calla halt, to establish personal rights leagues’’ in every school district,in every county, in every State of the Union. Let your 8 prociaim it to be the first duty of every citizen to obey the law, whether he be an official ora private citizen. Demand that there shall be absolute equality of every citizen before the daw. Persevere in your opposition toall sumptuary and other Vicious legislation, and teach the people that if they wish to preserve their liberties there must be ‘‘eternal vigtlance“ in the protection of ‘‘ personal rights.

GRAND STOCK OF STRAW HATS AT 25c, 50c and 75c, J. L. HUDSON. CLOTHIER, — B— AH JIM’S MURDER. THE TWO MEN ACCUSED WERE RELEASED FROM JAIL TO-DAY- Ah Quong, the Principal Witness, Went to China to Geta Bride, aud Found Himself Barred Out of the Country When He At- tempted te Return—His Dilemma—The Charge of Murder Against Wm. Mullen and Wm, Pinksten Continued Generally. In the Criminal Court this morning Circult Attorney Clover continued generally the case against William Mullen and William Pink- ston. Thedefendants were atonce released from jail, where they have been confined for almost a year awaiting trial. The case against them is a pecullarly interesting one and Mr. Clover was exceedingly loth to drop the pros- ecution. Mullen and Pinkston were charged with murder in the fret degree. Both are ignorant colored men and were indicted for the killing ofa Chinaman, Ab Jim. The case dates back to the night of October 8, 1888, when two colored men entered the laundry shop kept by Ah Jim and Au Quong, near Thirteenth and Hickory streets. Both of the proprietors were in the place at the time. Ah Jim stepped up tothe counter and asked the mén what they wanted. He was ordered to hand out $1 or take the consequences. The Chinaman insisted that he was too poor, and was inthe actof backing away to escape through a rear door when one of the negroes pulled out his revoiver and shot him THROUGH THE HEAD. The intruders made thelr escape, disappear- ing in the darkness before the arrival of those who had been alarmed by the noise of the shot. AhJim was found dead, the ball hay- ing passed through his brain, killing him al- most instantly. The following day a number of arrests were made, almost a dosen negroes being brought in by the police on account of fitting the de- scription given by Ah Quong of the murder- ers. Out of these Ah Quong selected John Buays and identified him positively as the man who had done the shooting. Buaya was unable to aive any account of his whereabouts at the time of the killing, ins!st- „ bowever, that he had been drunk In some saloon. He was locked upin jail on a war- rant and subsequently indicted by the Grand- jury. Buaya had been in jail over a year, when one day a young negro porter named Henry Curtis appeared at the Four Courts and told that a friend named William Pinkston had told him that be and Wliiliam Mullen HAD DONE THE SHOOTING. Curtis said that hehad kept the story quiet as long as he could, but felt that it was his uty to bring the murderers to justice. Pinks- ton was then arrested and taken to the Four Courts. In the presence of a number of witnesses he admitted the troth of Curtis’ statement. He threw all of the blame upon William Mullen. He said that he was introduced to Mullen early in October, and had been drawn into a scheme of robbery. On the night of the murder he said that Mulien had given him a revolver and asked him to go out ‘‘on business. They tried to get into several places, Dut were unsuccessful, the police chasing them away from a shoe shop on Market street just as they were climbing in a rear window. hen they went to the laun- dry shop where Pinkston insisted Mullen did the shooting. The prisouer claimed that he bad done everything in his pewer to prevent his companion from committing the murder, but was unsuccessful, On the strength of this confession Mulien was arrested the same day. He denied em- 5 that he had been near the China- man’s shop that or any other night and in- sisted that he had never deen Alone with Pinkston in bis life. PINKSTON'’S STORY le in ite every detall, pareve the men were heidand ind dicted tor murder im the first degree. Buaya was, of course, released, It now seems that Ah Quong became alarmea at the mistake he bad made in his identifica- of Buaya ages 1 the K the case called the Criminal Court he did "net answer and 3 — as he may, Ciroult Attorney Glover has 8 unable to get the Chinaman in the city. first he could not him, the Mongolian giving his compan ‘ons in Louis no information as to his W 1 was 0 ei that both o rather than send them to trial when they would be acquitted he has contihued the case generally and given them their liberty. At any time Ah Quong can be vroduced a new indictment can be secured against the men. Ah Jim’s murder is as yet unavenged. — — — SICK HEADACHE-—Carter’s Little Liver Pills SICK HEADACHE—Carter’s Little Liver Pills SICK HEADACHE—Carter’s Little Liver Pills SICK HEADAOCHE—Carter’s Little Liver Pils SCHOLTEN’S Best Finished CABINET PHOTOS, Reduced to $3 PER DOZ. 1312 ané * 5 Olive r 8 e Fr A PAIR or DR. 21 Als sean & Ys TRL, 115 1 o Tru @ Bolt 2 wittbe roy — u plain sealed . 5 — OWEN ELECTRIC BELT & 306 North Broadway, St. Loule, Mo.

Commercial Notes. Receipts of wheat nowhere near expectations. The weather continues hot and dry for the growing corn crop. tains were plentiful in the Northwest, but the temperature much lower than it has been. The farmers’ deliveries of wheat in Kingdom during the past week were 45,940 quarters, at an average price of 328 8d. against 44,229 quar- ters at 32s d the previous week and 34,555 quarters | at 278 11d fur corresponding week last year. Manitoba advices appear to be somewhat contra- diciory. One report stated that everywhere there is a promise of a grain yield in Manitoba as heavy in proportion tothe acreage as the crop of 1887, and every Geld is progressing with wonderful rapidity. The Chicago Tribune says the wheatcrop of Mani- toba is backward and prospecis unfavorable. Beerbohm’s cable reported incessant rains in Fn- land. ‘This is not encouraging when one reads the ark Lane E mpeges of re@ent date. It states that the wheat crop of the United Kingdom is very back ward, and unless Juiy proves fine and hot through- out, barvest will be nearly three weeks late. It pred: Cts that the general commencement of harvest will not take place until August 20, exceptipg, eariy Talavera wheat and the crops on the southern side of the Sussex Downe. Acar new wheat in from Southeast Missouri at- tracted attention, so badly mixed was the grain with cheat. The wheat itself was dry but light and thin, and would not grade over No. 4. A grain shipper of Paducah, Ky., writes that the wheat harvesting has proven a sore ‘disappointment to the farmers. The yield has been 25 to per cent less than the heads indicated, and where ten io eleven and twelve bushels to the acre was expected the yield bas been five to seven and eight bushels. Not one crop in twenty-five will grade No. 2, as the grain is small and thin. He could not learn of a eld of mates worth cutting. The San Francisco Daily News states that the wheat crop of California has been steadily gaining for weeks past and that it is highly probable that the Government estimate of the condition of 86 for the State on June 1 is now considerably below the actual facts. This surmise is borne out by the demand for grain-bags. A St. PautSspecial reads: The crop outlook in Minnesota is very encouraging. Wheat opening and flax looking fine. Corn growing fast and about as far elong 8 usual at thistime. In North Dakota wheat and grain ofall kinds are growing rapidly. The hay crop will be large. In South Dakota the weather is very favorable for grain. Washington and Oregon crop prospects very flattering. A report from the line of the Iowa & Dakota divis- ion of the St. Paul road says the crop outlook has changed materially during the past two weeks and that blight and rust are doing damage. A letter from a milling firm in Sleepy Eye, Minn., says: Ahe prospects furthe newcrop are poorer and . stops raining wheat will be badly dam- aged," An English trade paper says of Germany: It is worth attention that the imposition of duty on grain has not been successful, as its supporters have ex- pected, in raising the "production of home-grown cereals. Thearea under the four 24227 ipal cro was 32,858,856 acres in 1 738,605 605 Uu 1881. And the quantities Werbe to cover the de- 74 of 11 amounted to 8,285,510 qere. in Ore. in N 8,946,020 qrs. in 1887, and g. 168.0 O80 ors in 1888 The Merchan : Exchange voted to ad ourn over - the Fourth from Thursday's close to Monday's open- oth This ig in conformity with the action of all er commercial bodies. ‘one of the largest receivers of wheat from lower river points says his correspondents inform him that the highesst yleid so far is 10% bu and from that down to 7ba tothe acre, The average is no halt what was expected, but the quality ls exceliens.
