It is stated that Emperor Wil- liam intimated his desire to witness these maneuvers, the most important of the year, but that the Czar politely but firmly conveyed the ideathatno foreign potentate would be granted that privilege. Central American Affairs. Crrr or Mxxico, Aug. 30.— President Ba- rilias’ cabinet resigned yesterday in a body to show their disapproval of his action in sign- ing the treaty of peace with Salvador. The President will form anew cabinet at once. Gen. Martin Barrundia, the revolutionist of San Jose, Guatemala, was shot and killed by Government officers last Monday. It was known Barrundia was on board an American steamer passing and the port captain with a guard boarded the boat and demanded the fugitive. Capt. Pitt, after being shown papers for his arrest, con- ducted the party to Barrundia’s cabin. Bar- rundia was informed the captain had given Filled with rage and desperate Bar- rundia opened fire on the party, but only gave one shot when he fell pierced with a dozen bullets. His body was taken asbore. About Gen. Boulanger. Paris, Aug. 80,—The Voix du Peuple pub- lishes a letter from Gen. Boulanger in ref- actions during the periods when he com- manded a French army corps and was Minis- ter of War, in which he deciares that he has been treacherously misrepresented, but says that the moment fortelling the whole truth has not yet arrived. The same paper states that Gen. Boulanger hadan interview with Count de Paris last September. The Figaro to-day charges Gen. Boulanger with promising tosupport aprojectfor the restoration of the monarchy and with intend- ing to betray the country. M. Rochefort publishes his declaration that no one connected with the Intransigeant ever received a sou from the treasury of the Bou- langists. Count Dillon, he adds, had an- nounced his fortune to be at the disposal of the Boulangist cause, and no reason, there- fore, existed for the supposition that the Roy- alists supplied its adherents with money. The Figaro has received a request from the Duchess of Uzes that her name be not con- nected with matters pertaining to the Bou- langer affair. The request is couched in per- emptory terms. ° The Seizure of the Mattie C. Dyer. VICTORIA, British Columbia, Aug. 30.— The sealing schooner Mattie C. Dyer arrived here yesterday afternoon from the Nortb for re- pairs. She was seized at Ounalaska, June 18, by the United States Deputy Collector Em- mons, the schooner having gone in there in distress on the day previous. Capt. Mackler informed the authorities that he had not transgressed the sealing laws nor offenfied the customs regulations. When the case was brought before the court it was dismissed, the judgment being that the vessel had been seized for probable cause. The vessel had seventy-seven seal skins on board, all of which were returned except three when, taken to Sitka. The schooner was put ashore and grounded, when the officers went through her. The Captain and crew were taken ashore and confined in the old Baranff Castle, where they were kept for three weeks. The authorities took away the skins, sails and all vessel findings. The grounding has caused her to leak badiy, and she came here to be overhauled. The Cap- tain says the seals seized had been taken at least thirty miles from any shore on the North | Pacific and that the man who made the seiz- ure was a new official. Disastrous Floods. VIENNA, Aug. 30.—The River Rhine has over- 4 ‘flowed its banks and inundated Vorarlburg, the extreme western district of the Austrian Emplre. In that district the villages of Al- bach, Hohenems, Hoech, Lustenau and Fues- sach have been flooded, and a number of | bridges have been swept away by the flood. Many lives are reported lost. The heavy rains continve throughout Switzerland. Im the canton of Grisons numbers of bridges have been swept away, and pestal communication with the towns and villages of the canton has been suspended, the roads having been ren- dered impassable bya landslip on the St. Gothard range. The Alpine district of Ariber- gis is also cut off. The Liquor Traffic in South Africa. LONDON, Aug. 80.—Gen. Jubert, the noted leader of the Boers, represents in an in ter- view that terrible misery has been caused among the natives of South Africa by the iiquer traffic. The General says that in 1884 he warned King Umbandine of Swazziland that gold coneessions and drink would destroy the country. Umbandine did not heed the warn- ing and three years laterhe wasa hopeless drunkard. Disease and drunkenness are making havoc among the native tribes, not- withstanding the efforts of the missionaries. — — Increasing Duties en American Freduets. Paris, Aug. 30.—It is now positively as- serted on the best authority that the French Government has decided to prohibit tne im - portation of the entire list of American pork products and at the same time to Increase the duties on all American products exported to this country. 16 is hoped that such action will have the effect of changing the present !llib- eral spirit of the American Congress. Caught iz an Alpine Storm. Romm, Aug. 80.—Two Italien tourists re- attempted to ascend Mount Cervin in erence to the revent reports concerning his surprised by a terrific storm and forced to flee tor their lives. Their guide expired on the way and, when the tourists arrived at Mermatt, one of them was found to be disfig- ured for life by having bis face cut with pieces or ice, while the other had both hands frozen. Relief Measures for Ireland. DuBLIN, Aug. 30.— Mr. Jackson, one of the Joint Secretaries of the British Treasury, and Mr. Sankey of the Irish Board of Works are making a tour of the Northwest of Ireland for the purpose of reporting asto what relief works shali be inaugurated in order to assist the people in case of famine arising from the failure of the potato crop. Suppressing Irridentists. VIENNA, Aug. 30.— The Fremdenblatt publishes an article to-day congratulating the Italian Government upon the measures it has adopted for the suppression of the Irridentists and de- clares that they will have a most favorable effect upon the relations between Austria and Italy. | Buried in a Brewery Cellar, BERLIN, Aug. 30.—The cellar of a brewery in Stoetteritz,Saxony, in which a number of men were at work collapsed to-day, burying six- teen ofthe workmen. Of these seven were killed andthe remainder were severely in jured. Current British Topics, \ Lonpon, Aug. 30.—It is learned that after the land purchase and tithes bills have been passed by Parliament Right Hon. D. D.

TORONTO, Ontario, Aug. 30.— The Manitoba and Northwest harvest is now probably beyond the reach of accident. The yield of grain and roots is such as was never surpassed and sel- dom equaled in any country. Four days ago the reaper commenced and miles of grain were falling in bound sheaves from the reap- or and binder. The cropis light in the United States and elsewhere. Sixteen million dol- lars will come into Manitoba andthe North- west for wheat alone. How much Canada will get for oats and potatoes cannot de cal- culated, but they will get a good round sum. Le Progress dw Saguenay of Montreal con- firms the previous report ot the failure of the crops in ‘nas district, and says “that” nö ver have the prospects been so dfiW¥eouraging as now. The failure of the crops is to be attrib- uted to dry weather and frosts. It says that many families are preparing to emigrate to the United States to obtain employment in the cotton factoties as they are unable to obtain enough to live on. The journal believes it to be the imperative duty of both Governments to do something to prevent the exodus.

Bold Attempt te Roba Paymaster Near Cin- cinnati. CInciwwaTi, O., Aug. 30.—About 10 o’clock this morning when the train on the Big Four Road stopped at Addys- ton, where the extensive iron- works of the Addayston Co. are located, a few miles from Cincinnati, the pay- master ofthe company alighted carrying a satchel with the money for the payment of the men. Its value is variously estimated at from $11,000 to $20,000. Along with him was tne Superintendent of the works and an assistant. Hardly had they started toward the works when a desperado appeared with a drawn revolver and bandit-like demanded the money. Mr. Burns, the paymaster, ani his companions were luckily not without the means of defense snd for answer they quickly drew their weapons. The robber discharged his weapon and instantly staried to run, spurred on by the rapidly discharging revolvers in his rear. He succeeded in getting away, though it was thought he carried a wound with bim. The melee so confused the engineer that he started his engine ahead and soon crashed into some freight carson the siding, damag- ing both thecarsandthe engine. The thief has not yet been caught.

Bills for Their Adjustment Discussed in the House—Acts Signed by the lresident— Reciprocity Favored— Edmunds Kesolu- tion—The Harrison Party—Tariff Debate in the Senate—Washington News. WasSHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 30.—The House this morning devoted an hour to debate on the bill for the adjustment of the accounts of laborers, workmen and mechanics arising under the elght hour law. The measure was earnestly advocated by Caruth of Kentucky, Dingley of Maine, Covert of New York, Mor- rill of Kansas, Flower of New York, Wade of Missouri, Reilly of Pennsylvania, Osborne of Pennsytvania and Farquhar of New York. Mr. Chipman of Michigan characterized the bill as a makesbift, a ‘‘good-enough’’ Morgan until after the election. Is meant nothing, it would do nothing, andin his opinion it was intended todo nothing. Instead of sending the claims to the Court of Claims, Congress should send them to the various departments for computation, and then Congress should make the necessary appropriations. He would vote forthe bill because the laboring men seemedto desire it, but he thought that they should have asked for a stronger meas- ure. Mr. Brewer of Michigan took substantially the same view. He asserted that the men who had worked in the navy yards had entered into a contract withthe Government to work ten hoursand had been paid for ten hours’ works. To say that they took the work under protest and that they ought to be repaid for the extra two hours was too ridiculous an argument to be presented in this body. Too true was it that the great body of the people to-day had seomingly come to the conclusion that the government in some way hasa duty to per- form in supporting the people, instead of the people supporting the government. They seemed to think that there was in this capital city a fountain of wealth which poured forth greenbacks, gold and silver m untold quan- tities and that it was the duty of Congress to so legislate that this morey should be divided among the people and this was the reason that they were asking for special legislation. Pacific Railways Funding Bill. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 80.—A minority report on the joint Pacific Railroads funding bill was submitted to the House to-day by Representatiye Dalzell of Pennsylvania, the chairman of the Pacific Railroads Committee. The bill covers the Central Pacific and Union Pacific roads. The report, which is signed by five members, says that while the minority agree in their opposition to the proposed measure, their agreement is based on differ- ent reasoas, and it has been deemed advisa- ble therefore to refrain from individual views and to join in a report which shall simply ex- press the common dissent of all to the ma- jority bill. Continuing, the report says that some mem- bers of the minority are clearly of the opinion that legislation iooking to the refund. ing of the Pacific Raliiroad debt to the Government is premature at this time, and that changes that may occur in the financial situation between the present time and 1897—when the debt will mature— may prove any action taken at this time to have been unwise. Funding acts can as well be passed, says the report, years hereatter the Govern- ment and its debtors can be intelligently grasped. The opinion prevails with some members of the minority, it is stated, that the history of Pacific Railroad construction and management is such as to render it improper that the Government shouid enter into composition with the railroad 8 The minority are unanimous in the opinion that the railroad companies are not justified in asking any ar- rangement upon business principles, except upon the basis that they shall pay the utter- most farthing of their debt. They are not satisfied that the true don- dition of the railroad companies has been frankiy and honestly presented to them and are clearly of opinion, they state, that the majority bill does secure to the United States all ought to have or thatthe com- panies are able to pay. All agree, says the report, that as a plain business proposition, the bill reported gives an unjust advantage to the debtors and fails to do justice to the gov- ernment, and for that reason they feel them- selves compelled to oppose its passage. Signed by the President. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 80.—The President has signed the meat Inspection bill and the agricultural college bill. The following bills have also been ap- preved: An act for the reliefof settlerson railroad lands. An act making appropriation for ad- ditional elerical force to carry out tine pro- visions of the Dependent Pension laws. To move the charge of desertion against the record ef Noyes Barber, on the rolls of the Navy Department.

An act to authorize foot and carriage or rail- road bridges across the Mississippi River near St. Paul. . An act to authorize the construction of a bridge across the Columbia River, Oregon, and the sundry civil appropriation bill. Edmunds’ Kecess Besolution. WasHiIneton, D. C., Aug. 380.-sSenator Edmunds’ resolution calling for « recess of Congress instead of an extra session has aroused considerable interest, and is sup- posed by Democrats to be an evidence of Republican bad iaith. Quay and Gorman ugreed that the election bill was not to be considered atthis session. Now the Repub- licans wanta recess; the adjourned session will be considered a new session, and the election bill will be taken up in viv lation of the agreement. The House Republicans favor the resolution. Indorsing Reciprocity. WASHINGTON, D. O., Aug. 30.—The Depart- ment of State has received a copy of the fol- lowing resolution, which was passed by the Detroit Board of Trade on the 26th of August: Resolved, That the proposition ofthe Hon. James G. Blaine to secure free markets for our peculiar products in the sugar-growing nations of the world im exchange for the re- movalofthe duty on sugar by the United States is wise and patriotic and should be adopted by Congress in the interest of the egriculturists and manufacturers of this country.

C., Aug. 80.—Mr. Morgan presented resolutions of a colored mass- meeting in Birmingham, Ala., against the passage of the Federal election bill. Mr. McMillan asked to have the House reso- lution taken up and passed, granting fifteen days’ leave annually to clerks and employes in first and second-class post-offices, but Mr. Edmunds objected on the ground that its con- sideration would occupy time. The bill, he said, involved a good dealof money, as the leave of absence provided for would probabiy necessitate the employment of extra hands. The following bills were taken from the 8 and passed: $50,000 f e Senate bill appropriating ° or a site and public buliding at Sheboygan, Wis. The House bill as to the construction of a railroad bridge across the Little Tennessee River at Niles Ferry, Tenn. The tariff bill was then taken up, the pend- ing question being on Mr. Carlisie’s motion to strike out the wool paragraphs (357 to 363) so as to place wool on the free list. Mr. Aldrich gave netice that on Monday he would move on that day, Tuesday and Wednesday the Senate. should take a recess from 5:30 to 8. Mr. Daniel addressed the Senate in support of the amendment. Facts demonstrated, he said, that the high tariff on wool and weelens had been a com- piete failure. If that high tariff had been de- signed to stimulate the American manufacture of woolens it had failed. If the design bad been to increase the number of American sheep, the cultivation of flocks and the wool elip it had failed. If the design had been to decrease the price of wool it had succeeded. The hign duty had not checked the importa- tion of foreign wools because these were néc- essary forthe utilization of American wools. Mr. Hawley replied to some of, Mr. Daniel’s allusions to the decay in connection with agriculture and reminded him that the ten- dency of population toward tewns and cities was common in all States and Unions. The effects of that tendency were modified by keeping up manufactures, without which the population of Connecticut would be reduced. He was con- that there were more landhold- ers in Connneoticut now than there used to be. The land was increasing in value and the population of the State had grown since the census of 1880 by 118,000. The moneyin sav- ings banks (a fair indication) was growing year by year. Mr. Daniel explained that he had only al- luded to the decay of farming interests in Connecticut to rebut the argument that high tariffs created home markets for the farmer. Mr. Dawes refered to what he called the ‘‘logical inconsistency of the Senator from Virginia,’’ who said that the high tariff on wool of 1867 had had the effect of depreciating the wool growth of the United States, both in quantity and value. But after that there was not a woel grower in the country that asked to have that pelicy abandoned or who did not know that its abandonment would be ruinous. Mr. Daniel asked Mr. Dawes why hides were not protected lo the bill as well as wool. Mr. Dawes declined to be diverted from his position by such an interrogatory. [Laughter onthe Democratic side.] He wanted an an- swer to his own question, how it was that the wool-grower wanted to maintain a tariff; the effect of which wasto reduce the price of his wool, and that the wool manufacturer wanted | to abandon a tariff, the effect of which was to redace the cost of his raw material. Either they were both fools or the Senator from Vir- ginia was led astray by assorted statistics. Mr. Aldrich appealed to Senaters on both sides to let the vote be taken without further debate, and said if better progress were not made some oftbe most important questions an in the bill could not be discussed at all. Mr. Vance, who had taken the floor to speak, —— his right in deference to Mr. Aldrich’s appeal. he vote was taken and Mr. Carlisie’s mo- tion to strike out all the weol paragraphs was rejected—yeas, 17; nays, 27—a strict party vote, although Mr. Payne, if present, would 3 Mr. Sherman said, voted in the nega- tive. No amendment was offered to paragraghs 870, 371 or 872. The Finance Committee re- ported an amendment to paragraph 373, relat- ing to weolen and worsted yarns worth less than 30 cents a pound, by increasing the rate per pound from twice to two and one-half times the duty per pound on uawashed wool of the first class. *‘Namgay A complete and most interest- 0 ing story on Heredity, by Rud- Doola. yard Kipling.

WoOopFIELD, O., Aug. 30— Yesterday was the last day of the fair bere and more than 10,000 people assembled to see the final races and a balloon ascension by Prof. Carter, the well known Hronaut. The balloon was a simple hot air affair and was kept in its position over the furnace by repes held by the bystanders. When it had been inflated and all was ready Carter gave the word to let go. The balloon shot upward and the thousands of spectators were borrified to see dausling at the end ofa small line Milton Redin, one of the most prominent young men of the count and an officer of the fair association. Hundreds of persous shouted for him to drop, but Redin was either entan- gled or had ost his head, and he clutched frantically at the rope, attempting to cilmb up the slender line into the basket. A num- ber of women in the dense crowd fainted and ali the spectators grew sick with horror as the balloon sailed upward and began moving southward. Carter could be seen making | desperate efforts to draw Redim up the rope on which be swung to and fro. For tully ten minutes their efforts continned and then, at a height of over one thousand feet, the balloon took a sudden iurch. Redin’s hold was loos- ened and his body shot downward. It was found halfamile away. The clothing was torn off, allhis bones broken aud the body crushed out of all human semblance. Redin’s brothers and sisters were in the throng aad saw his terrible fall.

OBSTRUCTIONS FOUND ON THE CENTRAL ROAD NEAR ALBANY. Done by the Pinkertons—An Exagger- ated Account Sent Out—Battle of the Brotherhoeds on theSouthern Pacific— How It May End—Labor News. ALBANY, N. T., Aug. %0.—A dastardly attempt to wreck passenger trains was made at 20’clock this morning near Karners, about seven miles west of this city. By almost a miracle, the Chleago express, heavily laden with passengers and going at lightning speed, was brought to a standstill within twenty fees of a pile of heavy ties and railroad iron placed acrosa the track. The tracks at this ton men, but somehow the train wreckers passed the guard and laid the trap behind the shelter of one of the numer ous freight trains stalled at that point. The attempt was made in «a most systematic way for both the switchman and a Pinkerton guard were locked up in their houses. Atabout five minutes of the time the train is due the switeman started to leave the shanty but found himself a prisoner. While trying to get out he heard the thunder of the approaching train. Suspectiag danger he cried for help and then burst the door down. As he got out the train came down at a terrific speed, and then for the first time the sw itchman saw the pile of ties on the track. He had no time to got bis lantern but, with the Pinkerton men who had gathered, got on the track and yelled. The engineer saw them and putting on his alr brakes reversed his lever and brought the train to a standstill. Very few of the 200 passengers were made aware of the danger. An attempt was made and successfully, to wreck a train at Greenbush last night. A coupling pin was dropped in between the tracks of aswitch and a freight train was de- railed. Traffic was delayed for five hours. _ At the Delaware 4 Hudson yard this morn- ing detectives found a coupling pin placed on a track so as to threw a train off. The strikers — that these acts are done by outside par- ties. LATER—According to the Central road au- thorities the account of the attempted wreck at Karners has been exaggerated. They say that the few ties on the track were placed so as to scare the engineer and not to wreck the train. The engine knocked tnem off. Master Workman Edward Lee was asked for his version of the attempt to wreck the train. He sald: The strikers had nothing todo with it, for they could not have passed the Pinkerton guards. It was done by the Pink- erton men themselves, so as to keep the road ip astate of worriment and make them be- lieve that the Pinkerton guard is necess . No strikers would out at such an bour in the morning and you will notice that the ties — 5 carefully placed so as not to wreck the rain.’ Battle ef the Bretherhoods,. SA ANTONIO, Tex., Aug. 30.—The contest between the Southern Pacific Rallway and those of its engineers who are members of the brotherhood has assumed a new phase. It Is now strictly a dispute between the Broth- erheodad of Locomotive Engineers and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. It came about in thie way: The man Ritchie, who was appointed engineer of a passenger train and to whose appointment the Brother. hoed of Engineers so strenuously objected, Was a and a member of that organ lsa tien. The engineers demanded that he be removed anda member of their brotherhood be put in his place. This the road refused to do. The engineers have sent on a committee to San Francisco to confer with the r- hood of the coast andht their stand is indorsed and the road refuses to come to time they will strike and stop every train between New Orleans and San Francisco. Now the Brother- hood of Lecomotive Firemen has taken 4 band and propose to staud 1 Ritchie. It, too, will send on a committee to San Francisco to confer with Western members of the order. If their indorsement of Ritchie is sustained — will defy the engineers to tie up the road, Brick-Handlers Go to Work. New York, Aug. 80.—The brick-handlers returned to the work of unloading association brick at the usual price of 40 cents a thousand this morning. Three barges were unioaded at the foot of Thirtieth street, containin 1,500,000 brieks. It was said at the office Peck, Martin & Oo. that this was association brick. They are filling their contracts. They said that they delivered 1,000,000 bricks. Dealers seem to think that there will de so brick famine. There seems to be littlc danger now that the men will be forced out of work.

The Missouri Bar Associations Request To Have Both State Committees Support the Proposed Censtitutional Amendment ' —the Thirteenth Ward Republican Row— Colored Republicans Dissatisfied— Pelitical Matters. The meeting of the State Democratic. Com- mittee to-day is attracting much attention o trom the State politicians. It was called to order shortly before II o’clock this morning in the committee rooms inthe Temple builld- ing by Vice-Cnairman Carroll of Unionville. Chairman Moffitt was detained else- where, and after waiting half an hour over the time set for the meeting, Mr. Carroll decided to get the organ- ization down to business. All the members were on hand excepting Mayor Noonan, who represents the Eighth District, and Chairman Mafiitt of the Ninth District. The Mayor was Fepresented by Charles Higgins of the Kighteenth Ward. J. H. Carrell was on hand for the First District; J. H. Finks of Salisbury, Second District; J. B. Thomas, Albany, Third District; 1. F. Ryan, St. Joseph, Fourth District; Senator A. M. Allen, Kansas City, Fifth Dis- trict; J. D. Folson, Fayette, Sixth District; George T. Dunn, Troy, Seventh District; J.A. Brown, Eureka, Tenth District; B. P. Bailey, Fulton, Eleventh District; W. H. Phelps, Car thage, Twelfth District; T. J. Delaney, Spring- field, Thirteenth District, and D. J. Allen, Piedmont, Fourteenth District. „Farmer Hickman, the Democratic nom- wee for Railroad Commissioner, was one of the first to put in an appearance at the committee rooms. When asked what he thought of the Republican ticket, be said he considered it an easy one to defeat. I think. he said, that I will have much difficulty running against Mr. Merri- field, who received the nomination for Rall- road Commissioner at the hands of the Re- publican Convention, The fact that he lp now and has been for years connected with @ railroad company will I think greatly strengthen my chances among the farmers in all section of the State, Our nominees for the other offices are much stronger than the Re- publicans named for the same places.’’ DISCUSSED THE ‘‘OTHER’’ TICKET. The members of the State Committee spent some time discussing the Republican ticket before the meet - ing was opened. The committeemen from the northern districts of the State spoke wellof Judge Mullins, the Republican choice for supreme Judge, but at the same time said that Judge Gantt would defeas ulm by a big majority. As soonas Vice-Chairman Carroll galled the meeting to order Secretary Frank Estes of the Missouri Bar Asssociation appeared for the committee to make an argument in favor of the proposed amend- ment to the State Constitution increasing the number of Supreme Court judges from five to seven. The docket of the Supreme Court was clogged to such an extent, he argued, that it became absolutely necessary to increase the number of judges to handle the cases appealed tothattribunal. He asked that the State committee give its hearty support to the amendment. The committee agreed with Mr. Estes and campaign orators will keep the amendment in mind during the canvass. It is the inten- tion of the Bar Association to make the same request of the State Republican Committee. When Mr. Estes concluded his address the committee went into executive session. ; CAMPAIGN ARRANGEMENTS. The committee remained in session untill o’clock and then took 2:80. The greater session was given over tothe the hearing of reports from the various districts. These were generally ofan encouraging character; names of a number of speakers were reported by the Executive Committee and assignments recommended for them. No time was fixea for the opening of the campaign, the commit- tee letting that go over to the afternoon ses- sion. The campaign will, however, be opened in a very few days. Treasurer Brown reported that the cam- pPaign contributions were coming in satisfac- torily and that there was no danger of a ecarcity of funds to defray the expenses of the canvass. When the committee resumed the meeting later in the afternoon Sam Byrnes, the Con- gressional nominee in the Tenth District was called in and asked to make his own arrangements for speakers in that district. This was done be- cause he is thoroughly famillar with the counties and city wards in the district, having canvassed thein in nearly every campaign during the past fifteen years. After Wade’s Congressional Seat. The Democrats in the Thirteenth Con- gressional District are preparing to make the political effort of their lives to defeat Farmer Wade at the approaching election. Reports from the counties comprising that district show that the delegates are being selected uninstructed and unpledged, giving them to —— fromthe field. Ine names most prom- nently mentioned are those of Col. John Phelps, - Department Commander of the Missouri G. A. R. Judge Fyan, who represented the district years ayo in Congress, and Luke Kelly, a prominent Domoerat ana Grand Army man of Neogha. Democrats from the Tuirteenth District, say that any one of the three mentioned can de- feat Wade. State Committeeman T. J. Delaney, of the Thirteenth District, who isin the city attend- ing the committee meeting, sald this morning that the Democracy of the district was never organized better or with more determination to win. He said the outlook was never more Promising than it is at present. Colored Republicans Dissatisfied. The colored Republican leaders profess to be very indignant at the action of the State Republican Convention in indorse the Lodge Federal This morning P. H. Murray, Advance, said it looked as though the Republican party wanted to use the negro for all it could get out of him and then drop him until he was again. The convention we asked it pandered other element and interest of arty. We wanted Temple of St. Louis mmitteeman- at- Large and they gave us Pejham of Hannibal, who is a echool teacher and cannot find the time to get out and obtain something for the colored opie. Every time we make a demand or anything we are met with the cry, ‘Didn't we fight for your Bmancipation!’ That's what we heard in Jef- ferson City from the opponents of our resolu- tion. That cry is getting monotonous to the colored Republican voters and the party lead- ere Ought to know it by this time. Election bill. editor of the Thirteenth Ward Republican Fight. Notwithstanding the fact that there has been seven delegates and alternates elected to represent the Thirteenth Ward inthe Tenth 3 Convention, which convenes at Soto on Tuesday, September 2, there will be amass meoting of Republicans to- might at 7 o'clock, which will be held at La- fayette Hall, forthe purpose to select dele- — to represent the ward at @ convention. From what can be learned the meeting to-night will ignore the 3 that was conducted at St. Boni- face Hail last Thursday evening in which deingates were elected. The Young Men’s Progressive Republican Club, whose aim in the litical feld is to secure the younger pie a show,“ have succeeded in obtain- g a number of signatures to calla masse meet ing for the above stated reasons. The mecting will no doubt be largely attended as there are quite a number of people bitterly opposed to the action taken by afewof the Republicans in calling Thursday evening’s meeting.

He will, if nomin- ated, make the against Editor Cochrane of the 88. Joseph . The district is close, but Cochrane's friends say that he will bave a comparatively easy time defeating Architect Mann it he does receivé the nomination. Political Notes.

CITY HALL FENCE DEFACERS, The Police Still Leeking fer Them—Mr. Cottrill Vindicated From Any Suspicion, The police have been looking for the rascais who, on Thursday night, defaced the fence around the new City Hall by squirting lamp- black onthe signs, but they have not yet found any trace ofthem mor have they any idea who they are. Thereference in yester- day’s paperto ‘‘a disappointed rival’’ was not intended us any reflection on the only bil- poster in St. Louis, Mr. Cottrill. Not only is there not the slightest ground for supposing that Mr. Cottrill had any connection, directiy or indirectly with the affair, but his self inter- est, as wellas his professional standing, are sufficient to vindicate him from any suspicion. Important Change of Time om the “Alten” Road, On and after Sunday, August 81, the ‘‘Chi- cago Vestibuled Limited’’ on the Chicago & Alton Railroad will leave St. Louis, Union Depot, at 8:20 p. m. instead of 7:55 p. m., and the ‘‘Kansas City Vestibulea Limited’’ will leave at 8:40 p. m. instead of 8:20 p. m., as heretofore.

SOUTHERN KANSAS OATTLE SUFFERING FROM AN UNKNOWN AILMENT. Disagreement Ameng Veterinarians As to Its Nature—Strict Quarantine Regulations Adopted—Hew the Disease Is Supposed te Spread—The Indias Territory Cattle Believed to Be Responsible. HI authorities of Kan- * sas are feeling great {anxiety on account of a | jdlecease that bas recent- ly made itself manifest in the southern part of the State, and which has proved to be ter- ribly destructive,’’ said A. R. Hughes ef Abi- lene, Kan., who is stopping at the Lindell. The disease has ap- peared within the last four weeks; at least it had not assumed any serious form before that time, although there were numerous reports that something was wrong. Such reports, however, are con- stantly arising, and little was thought of them until a very short time ago. A PECULIAR AILMENT. „During the first part of the month a num- ber of cattle died inthe northern section of the State, but as the ranges were over- crowded, owisgtoan influx of cattle from the Indian Territory that had been sent across the line in obedience te orders of the Interior Department, and as the dreuth had greatly curtailed the supply of water, the losses were ascribed to these facts. Within the past ten days, however,the number of deaths has increased very greatly and hundreds of cattle that have had plenty of feed and water are effected, so that there is no longer any Goubtthat some distemper is among them. At Newton deaths to the extent of over 3,000 have deen reported, and more than siz thousand cattle are more or less affected, most of them seriously. Just what the digease is or how it is contracted are subjects on which there is much difference of opinion. Some veterina- rians pronounce the disease to ve aform of Texas fever; others consider it murrain of a peculiar kind, such as has not been known on our Western ranges, dry murrain, I be- lieve, they call it. It is more immediately fatal than ordinary Texas fever, but from ail that I cam learn bears a very close resem biance to that diaease, although it spreads more rapidly. A PUZZLING QUESTION. How itis communicated is a mooted point. It is reasonabiy certain that herds can be in- fected that have had no communleat ion with cattic from outside of the State, as the disease has appeared im pastures that are entirely under fence, and into which nocattie have been introduced fora years past. This fact very seriously complicates the situation, and has led to an exeeedingly strict quarantine being enforced against cattle from a number of southern counties, irrespective ef whether they have been exposed to con- tagion or not. Many are inclined to the be- lief that the germs of the disease are carried by the streams, and that isolation does no gvod. Itisa well-known fact that cattle de- velop Texas fever, and especially big-jaw, if allowed to graze over ranges previously oc- cupied by stock afflicted by these diseases, but there haye heretofore beer no well au- thenticated cases of distempers being spread by running water. The troubie is believed to have originated with the Indian Territory cat- tle. QUARANTINE REGULATIONS, There are, as far as we cam learn, no symp- toms of disease in the Cherokee strip, but that proves nothing, as it is a well-known fact that cattle en a drive will develop all- ments to which they would never bave been subjected if they had stayed on their ranyes. The fatigue and lack of food and water to which the cattle were subjected om the drive to the Kansas line were admirably calculated to bring about disease, and those who have studied most closely the distemper trace it to the imported stock. A severe quarantine will be enacted against Indian Territory steck, and the Kansas men will per- mitnone of their cattie thatare suspicious to leave the State. as by so doing they would injure the reputation of all Kansas stock. The feeling, we may state, is strongly in favor ef allowing Indian Territory men to delay their departure from the Cherokee strip until Winter. ‘‘Namgay A complete and most interest „ ing story on Heredity, by Rud- Doola. yard Kipling.

Thomas Walsh Arrested After Enjoying Liberty for Some Time, Delegate Julius Lehman swore ont a war- rant at the Four Courts this morning charging Thomas Walsh with robbery in the first de- gree. Walsh was arrested yesterday evening by Detectives Lawler and Desmond, who picked him up on the streets. On the night of April i Mr. Lehman was on his way home. At the corner of Grand avenue and North Market he was held up by two highwaymen, one of whom pointed a pistol at his head while the other teok from him a gold watch ofthe value of $300. The twe escaped at the time. The next morning, however, Detective McGrath arrested Henry Schultz on suspicion and made such astrong circumstan- tial case against him that the prisoner was only too glad to turn up the stolen watch and take a compromise sentence of six months in the Work-house for the job. His evidence implicated Walsh in the robbery. Walsh could not be found, haviug left the city. Afew days ago he 8 however, only to be picked up last Bight. Charged Abeve the Legal Rate. New YorK, Aug. 30.—When the Westchester race track was opened a year ago the New York, New Haven 4 Hartford Rallroad Oo. hada monopoly of the passenger traffic and charged 50 eents for round trip tickets, an excees of 14 cents over the legal rate. Several persons brought suit ager the company, aud in each case received $50 and costs. This fact stimulated a lawyer named Henry Wehle to look up persons who could make an am- davit to the fact that they had psid 60 cents each for tickets. He nas sought for persons who had been thus overcharged at all the race tracks in this vicinity and in the botels, cafes, horse cars and elevated railroads. He has been very successful and says that he has filed 600 com plaints against the company. Ranges Swept by Fire. Dickson, N. D., Aug. 80.—A widespread and destructive prairie fire ravaged hundreds ot- thousands of acres along the LittleMissouri River twe or three days ago about forty miles from the main line of the Northern Pacific Railroad. The at range of the H. T. Cattle Co. was gwept clear. The fire was put out by means of horses, which were killed for the purpose of using them as dragsto extinguish the flames. ‘The horses were split up the back and the carcasses dragged over the country by long ropes. Twelve hundred head of horses were stampeded to the four winds. Confessed the Murder.

ALIVE WITH A BROKEN NECK, A Strange Case That Has Puzzled the Sur- geons. In the corridor of the Laclede Hotel s man was seen this morning who had passed through an experience which would have proved fatal to the great majority of mankind. On the IIth of July, 1889, F. J. Woodward of Denison, Tex., a conductor on the Missouri, Kansas & Texas, fell from the top of a freightcar. He was picked up in an unconscious cendition, and on examination it was found that the verte- brae of hie neck had been disiecated. He was conveyed the rallroad hospital at San where t was thought would ale but contrary to the universal opinion of doctors, he survived; and le now able to move abont with comparative freedom. While the yerte- bre were distorted, the continuity of the spinal cord was not seriously intertered with, and after Woodward had been bed- ridden for almostavear the physicion con- trived 1 support for bis head which. bas enabled him to move with almost as much case as if nothing had happened. Without the support his head is liable to drop either forward or backward, but as long as it is kept in an upright position he #xperiences comparatively little Ineonveni- ence. Around bis chim twe strong elastic bandages are passed, which are fastened to a wire support resting on his shoulders. Above his head a semicircular wire is passed which holds in place a disc that alds to keep the neck in place. Mr. Woodward states that his general health is good, but that he is of course prevented by his injury from engaging in any active busi- ness. The object of bis visit is to ascer- tain whether or notan improved support can be devised, THE BENTON-BELLEFONTAINE ROAD, The Overhead Electric System Will Prebably Be Adepted for the Line.

When the track is in proper condition I may give the gas motor a trial, but I am now preparing for an over- head electric line, and probably that will be what I shall determine upon.

A sworm statement by 4 woman named who was in Mrs. Dossen's the time, is to the effect thas Lillie Mayhew gave birth to a 4-months’ cbild at the institute on last Saturday. Mrs. Dossen denies the statement in full. She says she first met Lillie Mayhew about two years ago when she was brought tothe institute by Mrs. Brown, 213 Sout Sixteenth street. The girl's scandalous actions caused ber to ask her to leave the place. She says she fre- quentiy saw the girl at ner sisters request, and attended her in confinement. Thie was in a house at 1516 Chestnut street. The girl was only at her house once since two years ago, and that was about a week past. She asked if she could stay with her and said she was not well. Mra. Doosen says she sent for Dr. Benkendorf, 1510 Gratiot street, who ronounced her iliness pneumonia. The de- endant claims that Lillie Mayhew is an ad- venturess and insisted that blackmail is her object. Dr. Benkendorf corroborated Mrs. Dossen’s statement to the effect that he had not attended the girl in premature birth. Hesaid, however, that Mrs. Dossen told him when de came that the patient had a premature birth some time befere. Dr. Warren G. Priest ex- amined Lillie Mayhew at the Dispensary and found evidences of a premature birth, but could not say whether or not it was from the effects of a criminal operation. The girl is now in the house of a friend and will tell the same story told by Emma Kaylor when the proper time comes. She is from New Orleans and is said to belong te a good family in that city.

NEW YORK, 9a. m.—The largest professional operators among the members generaliy said yesterday, alter the close, that they did not see anything of importance in the way of a speculative movement right away, because of the two holidays; consequently the impression obtained that the market was lia- ble to be a waiting market for the present, but probably considerably improved and Bigner next week. Thestrength of Hocking Valley stock astounds the street, but there is no reason for surprise about it, inasmuch as the wonderful earnings ought to put it to 40.

A week ago Thursday and Friday thre situation was in some respecte almost beyond parallel; this week the change has been com- plete; of course, every one knows that the difference between Thursday of one week and Thursday next was the result of the offer of Secretary Windom to pay off $20,000,000 4% per cent bonds at par, but it was the offer and not the payment that worked the change; to Wednesday only $9,625,000 had been accepted, a censiderable portion of which was not bonds held and therefore disbursed for New York, and the other portion was of bonds al- ready heid by the Treasurer as security for bank deposits.

JEFFERSON CiTY, Mo., Aug. 30.—Attorney- General Wood has given an opinion in which he declares that a clerical error has invali- dated the chapter on fees passed by the last Legislature. The chapter originated in the Senate, passed and went te the House. There twenty-sixamendments were added and the bill returned to the Senate for concurrence. The Senate concurred in all but amendments Nos. land 26, amd a conference committee was appolintea.

The Ocean Promenade Badly Damaged at Asbary Park Last Night. ASBURY ParRK, N. J., Aug. 30.—The high surf of last night and this morning sweeping along the beach here has carried away all of the ocean promenade between the Asbury pa- vilion and Third avenue. The waves tore away hundreds of feet of the beautiful board walk, ler, com the walk avenue south to Asbury avenue, which is the finest part of the promenade. The sea not only uprooted spiles, tore planking to pieces and carried off bath-houses, but ate into the lawm back of the walk to the depth of twenty-five feet at several points. The electric light poles also went down. Although lines have been drawn from Third avenue to Asbury Park, the policé experience difficulty in keeping the peopie back from the dangerous portions of the lawn walk which will have to be rebuilt.

Leuis Merchants Have Annexed Eastern Texas—Pretests From Galveston ~The Increuse in the Northwestern Busi- ness—Extraerdinary Develepment ef the Trade With the Southeast—An Excellent Outioek, HE wholesale dealers of st. Louis are jubi- lant over the pros- pects of the fall trade, which has set in from two to five weeks ear- lier than usual and promises to assume proportions larger than the most enthus- last ie had anticipated. A glance at the regis- ters of the hotels will show that not only is the number of country buyers who are now ein the city greater than it has ever been before at this season, but also that they come from localities that have here- tofore drawn their supplies from other quar- ters. EXTENDING Sr. LOUIS TRADE. A manager of a large wholesale * goods house in reference to this matter said: ‘‘I have been obliged not only to watch my own business closely, but also to keep an eye on what was being done in other lines, and have thus obtained no little insight into tbe situa- tion. Noone who is at all well informed on the subject can fail to see that St. Louis has been reaching out in all directions, and extending its field of opera- tions. We bave long had the preponderance in Northern Texas, but this year we have added Southern Texasto our tributary terri- tory, most seriously cutting In On the trade of Gaiveston. So great have been our advances in this respect that the Galveston merchants have made a formal appeal to the railroads asking that a change of rates be made 80 that they can compete with St. Louis in Southern Texas. They do not claim that the rates are more favorable to this city than when Galveston practically con- trolled the trade of that section, but they say that owing to the advances made by St. ulis they cannot sell goods in their own territory unless they receive assistance from the rail- roads. GREAT INCREASE IN SALES. „This admission is proof pesitive of the manner in which this city has manifested its enterprise. The rea- sons given are that the merchants of this city are willing to do business on a much smaller margin of profit than during previous years, and that, therefore, they are occupy- ing territory that was formerly supplied from other points. This year we have sold goods to points in Southern Texas that have not pre- viously been touched by us. The extension ofourtrade in the Southwest is only what might have been expected, but in two other directions our merchants have made advances that were hardly to be anticipated. The pur- chases from Northern Kansas, which formerly was largely supplied from Chicago and Kansas City, are larger this year by from 75 to 125 per cent than they ever were before. In Iowa and Southern Nebraska the gain is not so great, butisstillvery considerable. This gain is made at the expense of Chicago ard is a most important one, but not nearly so sig- nificant as the extension of St. Louis trade that is taking place in the S@mthern States east of the Mississippi. + NEW CUSTOMERS GAINED. „„This spring a great many merchants from Tennessee, Kentucky, Southern Indiana and Southern Ohio came to this eg, 4 to buy goods who bad previously been in the habit ot obtaining their supplies from Cincia- nati, Louisville and Nashville. The influx from this quarter for the fall trade includes not only almost all of these who come here in the spring, but hundreds of others. The rea- son that they give for their change in the base of supplies is that the line of goods carried in this city is larger than in the markets to which they formerly resorted, and that their customers demand a seer variety and better qualities than have formefly been called for. Nothing is more marked in the territory tributary to St. Louis than the great Increase in prosperity and the en- largement of the expenditures of those who buy from this market. Scarcely a country merchant has come here this fall who has not increased his orders by fully 50 per cent, and never has it deen so easy to make collections. Long credits are seldom asked, aud a great part of the business is done on a cash or thirty-day basis. This enables merchants to sell on closer margins and thus to extend their trade by lowering prices. Al- together the outlook is better than it ever was before.’’ Hear the Soul of a Krakauer Plano sing. To hear it isto buyit. It stays in tune twice as long as any other plano and lasts. a lifetime.

Congress and the United States Government have done for her all she asked, à special ses- sion of the Legislature of Illinois has given her all she demanded in the way of financial aid and enabling acts, and yet she is no further advanced in plans and preparations for the fair than she was when Congress gave it to her nearly six months ago. She has an army of directors and com- missioners, organized with presidents and secretaries and equipped with an alleged subscription fund of $5,000,000 to begin with, but there is no beginning, and no prospect of one, because there is no eligi- ble or even available site for a corner- stone. The wonderful energy, resources and pluck which rebuilt Chieago so splen- didly after the great fire, and which Congress counted on to guarantee the completion of grand preparations for the fair in 1892, seem to be utterly wanting, to the great disappointment ofthe coun- try. One-fourth of the scant time allotted for the gigantic preparations necessary has been allowed to slip away unim- proved, and withoutany action looking to the improvement of the remainder. The site squabble alone progresses, and always in the direction of quicksands and inter- minabie delays. Such protracted indecision and inaction was not expected from any of the compet- ing cities. It begins to look as if Chicago had obtained the location only to play the part of the dog in the manger. It is time the farce were ended, and when the directors meet again next Tuesday the country has aright to expect from them some decision, some action, which can be accepted as a guarantee of good faith. If Chicago is not going on with the work she ought to say so and let some other city undertake it. — OO Oo?) — ᷑ͥ — ONE HUNDRED towns and cities of Wis- consin which contained 29 per cent of the population of that State in 1880, now con- tain 39 per cent of it. Census returns so far indicate that the larger increase of population in the towns than in the coun- try, which called forth so much comment ten years ago, will be more marked now than then. The explanation of the fact is that the means of living in cities and the attrac- tions of town life have improved, while farming has been under a cloud of de- pression and could offer no counteracting inducements. The proper balance of population between town and country is not what it was in the days of hand tillage and ox-team transportation, and we may not have reached it yet, In the mean- time thecrop reports show that there is no danger of a famine from the depopu- lation of the fields and the over-crowding of the towns. 1 mn -_ ———_ THE negroes drew the color line against themselves when they undertook to cast the negro vote solid for one party and to os- tracise all of their race who voted for the other party. The native American line would appear instantly in politics if all naturalized citizens could be herded un- der one party banner, asthe negroes have been. And the result would be that neither party would then have to nominate a naturalized citizen for any office. The color line is now drawn as strictly against the negro in Republican organization as it is in the politics of the South. The Republicans do not elect ne- groes to any desirable offices where they have the power, because they do not have to. A division of the negro vote is as conspicuously needed to break the color line in the Republican party and in the North as in Georgia or Mississippi. - See BLAINE’S Waterville speech opens with the following words: I wisb to declare the opinion that the United States has reached a point where one of its highest duties is to enlarge the area of its for- eign trade.

DANGER- FIELD FIGURED SO UNPLEASANTLY. The Stery ef Young Biunt’s Brutal Assault at the Cottage—Me Refuses to Talk When Interviewed at Brighten Beach— Something of the Histery of the Parties Invelved—The Dangerfield Family. EW YORK, Aug. 30.—Mrs. Emme N. Dangerfield is the wife of Reverdy Dangerfiela of Al- exandria, Va., a member of one of the proudest end most ancient fam- ilies of that com- monwealth, anda grandsen (on his mother’s side) of Reverdy Johnson, twice Senator of the United States from Maryland, Attorney - General under President Taylor and Minister of the United States to Great Britain. Mrs. Dangerfield’s family bas been famous in both the army and navy of its country. Sheisa woman of striking beauty and has long been a conspicuous figure in the society of the national capital, Mrs. Dan- gerfield is atalland rather large, though not portly, woman of 45. She isa brunette, with attractive features and luxuriant hair. She is a musician of talent, an entertaining con- versationalist, and in every way an accom- plisned lady. At about midnight of last Tuesday Mrs. Dangerfield was attacked in the Asbury Park cottage where she has been a summer guest by Edmund C. Blunt of Washington, son of a well-to-do cement merchant of that city, but himself a young man of somewhat malodor- ous record for dissipation and brawling. He visited the cottage when obviously under the influence of liquor, demanded to see Mrs. Dangerfield, who, it would appear, had before been subjected to gossip because of her ac- quaintance with bim, was repuised by the lady of the house, but forced his way towards Mrs. Dangerfield’s room. She came out upon the landing im her dressing-gown, remon- strated with him vainly, and was brutally struck by him in the face and choked. She finally made her escape and was locked up in a summer house adjoining the cottage until a policeman could be found. Blunt was arrested and the next morning was fined $16 and costs by a local magistrate. Mrs. Dangerfield dis- appeared from Asbury Park that same morn- ing. THE SCENE AT THE COTTAGE. The story ofthe scene at the Park cottage is printed in full here this morning. Itis stated that Mrs. Dangerfield came to Asbury alone some three weeks aro and went to live at the cottage of Mrs. Engard. Mrs. Engard has lived here fifteen years, and only receives as guests, rather than boarders, a few friends each summer. Mrs. Dangerfield applied for room at ber oottage armed with the most unexceptional references, bring- ing letters from Mrs. Fitghugh and Mrs. Gar- roll, her aunts, who are well known in Wash- ington, and who are spending the summer here at the Curlew Heuse. The hotel was crowded when Mrs. Dangerfield arrived, so she could not put up there, and Mrs. Engard took her in. Last Thursday Miss Susie Wheat, aleo a Washington belle, called on Mrs. Danger- field. iss Wheat had just arrived from Newport. Soon after two gentiemen in a swell turnout drove up to the bouse, and Mrs. Dangerfield and Miss Wheat went away with them to the Monmouth Park races. They had not been gone long when Mr, Blunt dashed up to the house in a T cart. He rang the bell und the door was opened by Mrs. Engard’s married daughter. She saw ata glance that he had been drinking. I¢ was the first time he had ever called atthe house, so she asked whom he wished to see. „Mrs. Dangerfield. Is she in?’’ „No, she bas gone out, he was told. ‘*Whom did she go out with?’’ „She went with a young lady. was the answer. * „Wers there any men with them?“ he per- sisted. The lady became alarmed by the wicked gieam in the man’s eye, so she answered, % NO. Does she ever have men call here or go out with her?’’ he asked more savagely. The now thoroughly frightened woman again answered inthe negative, whereupon Blunt said: ‘*Well, when she comes in tell her to wait. I want to see her,’’ and turning on bis heel he mounted his carriage and drove away. Mrs. Dangerfield, Mises Wheat and their es- corts returned about 7p.m. Mrs. Engard’s daughter spoke about Biunt’s visit, „Oh, God, is he here?“ she gasped. Mrs. Dangerfield and Mrs. Engard’s daugb- ter, with a young man, sat on the porch until about II o’clock, when Mrs. Dangerfield went to her room for the night. BLUNT’S BRUTAL ASSAULT. About ten minutes after 11 Blunt, on his T- cart, came dashing up to the door, greatly under the infiuence of liquor. Of Mrs. Eu- gard’s daughter, who was on the porch, he learned that Mrs. Dangerfield had retired. He demanded to see ner. Miss Engard went to call her and she agreed to come down whon dressed. Blunt fumed, and finally declared he would not wait, and, thrusting Miss En- — aside, bounded up the stairs. Mrs. angerfield, who had been at her door, banged it shut, and Biunt, not knowing which was her room, kicked inthe first door he reacheu, which was the room occupied by Mrs. Engard. Mrs. Engard screamed when he rushed into her room. Hecursed his mis- take, and, running across the hall, broke in another door, where a young married woman was cowering in terror with her baby. Again he uttered a string of oaths and got out. The third time he was successful in fina- ing Mrs. Dangerfield. As soon as he caught sight of her he clutched her by the throat and threw ner on the bed, attired as she was only in her night robe. Then he raised a chair, and with it beat hercruelly about the head, face and body. Not satisfied with this, he dragged her by her hair around the room and out into the hallway. He cursed her mean- time like a crazy man, and his oaths aroused every one in the cottage. The people became so frightened that they climbed out on the ortico and stood there untilthe police, whe ad been telegraphed for, arrived. Blunt Refuses to Talk. New Tonk, Aug. 30.—Edmund Blunt was at the Brighton Beach race track yesterday aiter- noon for the first time this season. He seemed on excellent terms with himself, and as he occasional friepd he met, his mind and con- ecience appeared to be perfectly easy. Blunt is a slender young man, a little below medium height, but of gracefal proportions. His face is smooth shaven, his cheeks have a paintish flush, and a pair of blue eves light up a coun- tenance which, svtmounted by light hair, might almost be describe as yr ish, it it were not for the lines—still a long way off from wrinkies— that care, dissipation, study, ill- ness or some other cause has drawn. Although be is a Southern man he has nothing of the appearance the Southerner, but looks more like the typleal New York youth. He wore a light-colored derby hat, a summer suit of grayish-white goods, the coata sack, a ‘*turn-over’’ collar. He wasstanding near the entrance to the paadock when ap- ached by a reporter, and he turned a calm ook of unrecognition when spoken to. As soon ashe was made aware of the repo 0 object he said, quietiy and without the slight - est change of expression: ‘‘You will excuse me, ‘as I have nothing to say at all.“ Mr. Blunt then walked away and joined an 30 quaintance who called to him, and a moment later he ms gh in the crowd. He in bar in the intereste and h at least bets down durin day. He remained on the course until all events for the day had been d and after the last race, in which his Za Gown with the borse,. stream of race- r ale . knew him the majority were , tracks. All who a in 5 did know — «Done has 88 sportsman in admirable eo. He hes tune amply large to permis of his induiging bis taste in that line and he even new. Main- teins a small stud near Alexandria. Blunt is a University of Virginia man the Law Department, and for a num has been he makes his been home- and orange cap, resent contains . -olds, merset by Stratford, dam Imelda, and other by imported. Macaroon, from Herodia. When he started this season he raced first at Washington. At that time he had Seymour brother to Somerset,a very useful anima and now one of the fastest milers about New York. He lost him at last ina selling race, but hisconduct when nis horse was bid up was such that he became even more popular than before with the horsemen who knew him. As an amatur turfman he bore bis losses with the philosophical good nature that horsemen affect whenever theycan. At the Morris. Park spring meeting he entered Seymour to seil for $2,600, and the blue and orange won. Father Bin“ Da ly fancied the horse and bid on bim with the result that when $4,200 had been reached, Seymour passed into the possession of the sage of Brighton Beach. His 2-year- olds were thoucht to be very promising — cong and as they are both in the great uturity Stakes, the Blunt outlook seems very bright, but the youngsters have since tallen off, and Amateur Turfman Blunt wil: pay for- felt. He has just come up from Monmouth Park, where be went to the races every day, and where be kept up die reputation asa convivial spirit and racing erthusiast. On off days he putin his time at Long Branch, As- bury Park and other eee in the vicinity. At the big Monmouth Park race course, he was usually aecompanied by one or more ladies, and his deportment then, in public, as far as those who were associated with him knew, was sufficiently correct. At the Heme of the Dangerfields. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 30.—It was the newspapers which first communicated to the family of Reverdy Dangerfield in Alexandria the guarded intimation of the unpleasant oc- currence in which Mrs. Reverdy Dangerfield and Mr. Fdmund ©. Blunt were inveived at Asbury Park. The Dangerflelds sre in the best sense of the term one of the first families of Virginia and Blunt belongs to a good tam - ily in Washington, but is a rather degenerate offspring. Reverdy Dangerfield is about years of age, the owner of extensive farming lands in the neighborhood of Alexandria, The lady belongs to a a distinguished family, the Nicholsons of this city, several of whom are officers in the United States armyand navy. Edmund C, Blunt ie described in the Washington city directory as a lawyer, but he has never prac- ticed much in the courts. It is not more than year o since young Blunt got into a wrangle in a drinking saloon and was shot by a gambier named Mauss, who was not only a rofessional gambler, but a fugitive from ustice atthetime. The quarrel was about a bet on a horse race and it must im fairness be said that the shooting was not unprovoked, for Biunt had threatened Mauss with a knife before Mauss drew his revolver. There was no i »preseention of the case, Blunt 2 recovered, When the correspondent called at the Das gerfield mansion in Alexandria yesterday, Dangerfield was not at home. He had left in the morning for Asbury Park to meet his wife. He knew nothing about the asssulte which Blunt is reported to have committed. If the reports of Blunt’s outrageous conduct at Asbury Park prove to be true it is obvious that Blunt might better have had any jury of twelve men in the country sit on his case than meet one of the Dangerfield brothers face to face. They do not make any threats, but they are men whose spirit is well known. Ed Jones, whose name Blunt assumed at Asbury Park, is weil known at Washington and beiones to a family of sporting men who are regarded as honorable In their professien. Whben seen here to-night be was very angry at the use that had been made of his name and declared he wonld bave redress. Mrs. Rever- dy Dangerfield is the mother of half a dozen ehildren. The recent occurrence at Asbury Park has started zossip here about the notice- able attentfon which she paid to Blunt when he was suffering from the pistol-shot wound a year ago.

Ordinair re- cently returned from a long sojourn in Cale- donia, the big island inthe Pacific, to which several thousand French criminals have been transported for their country’s good. It isa mistake, however, to suppose that many of these convicts spend their lives drudging away behind prison walls. If they behave themselves and do not try to escape, they are in time permitted to enjoy a good deai of lib- erty, live in cottages of their own outside the prisons, marry femaie convicts, and aequire more or less property. While in New Cale- donia Mr. Ordinair met a beautiful young French woman and her busband. They lived in good style, entertained bim bandsomely, and as they were not convicts their guest was curious to know how it happened that they were living insuch an out ef the way part of the world. They satisfied his curiosity, and later he heard the story they told from the French authorities on the island. About twenty years ago a wealthy Frenchman named Lamy was condemned to life imprison- ment in New Caledonia. Jt had been discov- ered that he had successively isoned two legitimate wives, and the public sentiment was that he was very lucky to save his head. His sentence was that be should be kept at hard labor. It happened that in his new home, being far awny from the French court that tried him, be was not confined very jong in the prison gang and 1 gaine many privileges. r. Ordinair hints that Lamy’s money was influential in making con- vict life easy and comfortable for him. At the end of ten years the wife polsoner was as free as anyone could be who was not per- mitted to go anywhere he pleased. He Wan- dered at willamong the settlements of New Caledonia, bought property in Nouema, the chief town of the island and started a ranch on which, before long, be had 2,000 head of oattle. He had other business and enjoyed all privileges of a free colonist except that he could not quit the island where he had been condemned to per- petual exile. But, of course, the thing he most desired was the complete freedom that was denied him. In spite of bis fortune and the comparative comfort he enjoyed, he made up his mind to 42 back to Europe it he could get there.

HE INSTRUCTS THE PRINCIPALS a8 TO HOW THEY ARE TO BE USED A Cali on the Children te Bring Their 014 Beoks te Use Until the Board Gets Out of Ite Present Tangle—An Excellent Ad- dreas on the Belation of the Teacher to the Pupil. The annual meeting of the Principals of the public schools occurred inthe board room this morning and the usual matters which claim the attention of those gentlemen on such occasions were discussed together with that vexed and battered question, free books. The Principals came to receive instructions concerning the regulations under which the books were to be distributed and used and cared for and Supt. E. H. Long was there to Instruct them, but Mr. Long was much in the position of the darling preacher, who, in the midst of a tangled discourse, stopped and exclaimed: ‘‘Bretheren, when aman undertakesto deliver himself of that which he is not possessed thereof he involves himself in a lab-y-rinth from which itis im- possible to extricate himself therefrom.’’ The board has not yet given its instructions on the free book question and Mr. Long had a dificult time explaining to the Principals what they would have to do when the board did intreduce free books if they were intro- duced at all, aud under the regulations one would naturally suppose ought to govern sucha matter. He acquitted himself with skill, however, and to his credit be it said that the Principals are now better prepared to care for their part of the free book business than the board is to take care of its end. SUPT. LONG’S INSTRUCTIONS. When the principals assembled Mr. Long called the meeting to order and proceeded at onoe with the business of the day. He said there was more than usual cause for congrat- ulation this year. Every one seemed to be enjoying good health and every one was back in the old plaéé; there were no vacant chairs. The roll was called and Mr. Long then pro- ceeded with his instructions. He said that more than a year ago the Teachers Com- mittee issued instructions that no chil- dren should be received out of their districts. That rule he wanted vigorously enforced. If children from one district ap- lied for admission to a school in another, hey must be refused unless they bad a permit from the office. Of course the children who attended a school last year would be received this year whether they lived in or out of the district, but no new children from another district should be received without a permit. Principals should try to persuade children to go to thelr own school, but if applicants insisted upon admission to another school they must be sent to the office, where a per- mit weuld be issued or refused as the circum- stances of the case might dictate. The noon hour has been changed, in fact the whole afternoon session has been moved for- ward halt an hour. The hours now will be dinner bour from 12 o’ clock to 1 e’clock and school from 1 o’cloeck to 8:15 o’clock. Teach- ers and priscipals, in consequence of the shortening of the hour, would have to be on hand fifteen misutes instead of half an hour before schoo! opened. Mr. Long then sald he would take up a matter which under the circumstances he would rather not talk about, because it had not been settled by the board. He hoped nothing that be sald would be miseonstrued, because, acting under instructions, he would simply do bis best to inform the prin- cipals what they would bave to do in the case of free books. The board had passed a reso- lution to intreduce free books into the four lower grades. He did not doubt but that that resolution would be acted upon, but on account ofa delay it would be a few dayd be- fore the books could be obtained. Tha prin- cipals would therefore call upon the children to bring to school whatever books they had to tide over this time, and he thought that with these beoks and the indigent books which are now in the schools, they could get along until the board had taken action. The principals conld make their requisitions on the supply agent now, and he would furnish them with books as rapidiv as he could. Those books must not be taken home. Those were the instractions he bad received, and he communicated them tothe principals. They must be given out in the morning and col lected at noon and night. NOBODY'S FAULT. Mr. Long said behboped he would hear no complaints about the delay. It was nobody’s faultin particular, and everything would no doubt de done to supply the books atthe earliest possible moment. He would look to the principaisto prevent complaints among the teachers and scholars. There would be some from the people, but that could not be helped. The question was asked whether the books formerly placed in the Prinoipal’s hands for sale should now be sold. Mr. Long said to instruct the pupils that those whose parents wished to buy books were at liberty to doso. Those who wished books supplied to them could get them. The books which pupils will bring at the begin- ning, while waiting for the supplies, would be used by them afterwards. It was not the intention that children who had books should leave them at bome and get free books. Mr. Henning W. Prentice of the Hodgen pointed outa distinction which would neces- sarily be made between scholars. Those who buy ks or who already have them can take their books home. Those who are supplied with books cannot take them home. By general consent this question seemed to be left to the board andit was not discussed. Itisan important point, however, and one which will no doubt occupy the board’s at- tention. A PERTINENT QUESTION. Another very pertinent uestion was raised. The Primary Geography and Fourtn Reader are used half a year in the Fifth — and haifa year inthe Fourth. The first alf year they are free books, the second they must be bought or issued as indigent books, ‘and it is the same with the spelling and music books, and with others from one grade to is liable to cause serious complications, but Mr. Long sald that he supposed the books would be furnished free the second half year, but that was a detail the board would no doubt settle. HOW TO HAND ILDREN. That ended the discussion of free books and Mr. Long said one other important point he wished to speak about was the attitade of teachers toward their scholars. The best way to get children to doathing is to make it a matter of principle. He believed in that because there was a moral aspect to it and be- cause it made the work easier and pleasanter for the teacher. If that idea prompted the teacher’s conduct toward the pupil, if a child was taught to study and behave be it ought to and it was right, the results would be far better and the discipline just as perfect as when lessons are learned under compa l- sien and the good nda ntorced rule, and the children Vould scholars and better men and WwW home stady,he had always fa of ite effect spon munity, but it bad ought to be carefully to subject taken up.

WATERVILLE, Me., Aug. 80.— After being in- troduced asthe famous advocate of a pro- gressive tariff’’ toa mess-meeting here last night, Secretary Biaine said: I wish to declare tne opizion that the United States has reached apoint where one of its highest duties isto enlarge the ares ot its foreign trade. Under the beneficent policy, of protection we have developed a volume of manufactares which, ia many departments, overrun the demands of the home mar- kets. In the field of agriculture, the immense propulsion given in it agricultural implements, we Can do far more than produce breadstuffs and provisions for our own people; nor would it an am- bitious destiny for so great a country as ours to manufacture only what we can consume, or AN only what we can eat. Weare already, in many fabrics and ip many prod- ucts, far beyond tha and our great Gemand is expansion. mean expansion oftrade with countries where we can find profitable exchanges. We are not seeking annexations of territory. At the same time I think we should be unwisely content if we did not seek to engage in what the younger Pitt so well termed annexation of trade. * * * As lI have already intimated, I am here to speak of the expansion of our foreign trade, not by any novel process, not by any mode that will shock or distarb home industries, not by any mode that will invite our people to rash experiments, or that will launch us in doubtful and dangeroys investments. What Imeéanto speak of, briefly. is u system of — 1 — not in conflict with a protective tariff, dut r thereto, and pre- senting a field of enterprise that will richly repay the effort and ener of the American people. We shail nd it instructive and valuable to examine into the sources of our imports and the dea- tination of our exports, and to strike a balance between thetwo. Take last year— 1889. In that year our whole exports to all the countries inthe three continents of Europe, Asia and Africa, and to Australia, Canada and Hawaii, amounted in round numbers to $658,000,000, and our imports from all these countries amounted in round numbers to $529,000,000, showing that from that vast trade we had a balance of 129.000, 000 in our favor, equivalent to that amount of gold among our people. But when all the accounts were closed, instead of having 3129, 000, 000 in our favor, we had a balance of $13,000,000 against us from our foreign trade. We must therefore have lost $142,000,000 in our commerce with the countries outside of those | to which I bave referred. Wherecould we have found such a large adverse balance? Let me tell * We lost $41,000,000 in Cuba, from which our imports were $52,000,000 and to which our exports were only $11,000,000. Forty- one million isa pretty large sum to lose in one island ina single year. In the Republic of Brazil we lost $51,000,000. Our imports from Brazil were $60,000,000. Our exports to $9, 000, 000. In Mexico we Imports from Mexico were $21,000,000; our exports to Mexico were 11,000,000. To sum it all up, our imports om the countries south of us, both insular and continental, on this hemisphere, were $216, 000, 000; our exports to them were $74,000, - 000. The balance against us in our trade with those countries, therefore, is $142,000,000, ex- ceeding ourgains from ali the rest of the world by $13,000,000. By no figure of speech can we flatter ourselves into the belief that our trade with our American neighbors is in a prosperous condition. * * * During the war we were compeiled to tax almost ev - thin in the air, in the water on the earth and under theearth. The necessities of the Government were so great that we could allow scarcely anything to be imported without paying tribute, and 1 think so patri- otic man can deny that that was a wise policy. We were not then studying the philosophy of trade relations, but how to save the life of the nation. Money was the primal necessity and we seized it wherever we could reach it lav- fully. But 2 the last eighteen years a great change has been made. entirely bas the war tariff been abolished thatin the fiscal year ending June 30, 1889, the articles admitted free were considerably more than one-third of all the im ports. 0 exact, the imported articles that paid duty exceeded $488,000,000 in value, and the Im- partes articles that paid no duty exceeded 256,000,000 in value. The inevitable tendency is, 1 think, toward an increase of the free list. Our great mistake was made when we began to repeal the war duties on so large an amount of imports. Any duty repealed was a favor and an advantage to the exporting egal A and we have asked nothing in re- turn. Instead of this course (which I must _ wae — oe pores mr ge and bene ye mr y both polit parties) ev repeui of duty should have been — 1 a most thor- ough investigation, and whenever it was found practicable to ¢xport anything from the Uni States, and thus establish rec procity of trade, it should have been done * We encounter opposition to this policy from those who declared that if we enter into reciprocity of trade with one country we must do so with all countries, and thus in- directly bring about free trade. Ido not see the logic of thie and Iam sure the fact will not prove what is predicted. We may enter into reciprocity wiih another nation because we find advantage in it. We may decline to enter into 0 with another nation we see no advantage in it. Reciprocity ts simply a policy of circumstance to be determined favorably or adversely, according as its oper- ation may make or lose for us.

W. Sylvester Explains the Cause of the J —Edward Deve on the Subject— Another Rise Promised Before the Winter is Over, Monday morning coal will be % to 50 cents per ton higher than it is to-day,and from thas date du through the winter the rates will ad. vance. About six weeks ago the coal ming owners and operators met in New York ana raised the price of coal 2 cents per ton, causing an advance here of 25 cents per ton. It also caused an advance in Chicago and all Western cities. Through a general understanding coal dealers have decided to raise the prices, and on September 1 the rates will be advanced all over the West. HARD COAL PRICES. Tue ruling prices for hard coal are now, and have been for the past sixty days, 86. 8 and $7 per ton, according to se, sald W. w. Sylvester, Treasurer of the Sylvester Coal Co., to-day. These prices, however, have been cut to a considerable extent on large orders, but on and after September 1 1 look for much firmer rates and greater unity of prices, to say nothing of an advance of 25 cents or 50 cents, Which is bound to come. Should the ruling figures be $7 and F. 0 8 1 anticipate, they will still be 25 cents lower than they were this time last year, as coal on September layear ago was selling for F. and 9 The reason for this annual anvance as fall comes upon us is apparent. ‘*During spring and early summer months, in order to keep the mines in operation, the producess and railroads in conjuction make he lowest possible figures for delivery of anthracite coal in the Western This low price naturally of a large amount during these months, but as the fall approachés and the natural demand for supplies of this kind begins to come in, the operators natur- ally want to realize a moderate profit for their sales, mnch of which during the spring and summer has been put out at cost. The ra- In for line imperative for the retalier in large cities to keep pace with the movement. I do not predict any scare, although I would not be surprised to see coal touch $8or higher during the winter, especially if itisa severe one. The miid winters for the past two years have been very disastrous for the coal trade all over the country, and if there is anything in the law of average, we ought to nee a change pretty soon. WHEN YOU CONSIDER. These prices are not exorbitant and there is no ‘gouge’ as some claim. Anthracite coal at $7 and $7.50 a ton is cheap property when you consider it is carried about one thousand miles by rail, with a bridge arbitrary and cost of delivery added. State Rallroad Commission- ers say that railroads cannot oarry freight for less than 4% a cent per ton per mile, and make money. Yetthe rates from the Easton coal are far below Ma cent ver ton per mile. Say the distance from the mines to St. Louis is 1,000 miles and the rate ½ a cent. That woula be $5 og ton. Then bridge toll, 40 cents per ton; ing, 50 cents per ton; loss, 10 cents per ton. This would make a ton cost $6 without count- ing the cost of mining, the profit of the — ator and the profit of the gealer. The freight rate, however, is = $5 Por ton, and that is why we can sell tor less than $9 and $10 per ton.’’ URE TO BE AN ADVANCE. . Edward Devoy of the Devoy & Feuerborn Coal Co. promised a raise in the cost of coal, saying: We have been selling coal this vear at $6.50 to $6.75to family trade, but the price has advanced to $6.75 to $7 as the coal became scarce, Eastern operators advanced the price 22 cents per ton and we had to do the same. In a day or so another advance from 80 to 75 cents a ton will be made. This includes ad- vanced freight rates t about to be made. the railroade carry grain on the way back fill up the cars with hard coal, which they carry at a very low rate rather than return with empty cars. When the lake traffic is about ciosing for the year the railroads, relieved of the competition, ad- vance the rates. As the demand for coa! in- dresses the mine operators advance the prices in winter and henee the wide difference in prices during the summer ana winter. ‘**With a fluctuation ef $la ton in a year there appears to be a big chance for specula- tion, but there is not. e combination de- tween the operators is so weak and the proba- bility of their beginning a war against each pier any time, makes the risk too great. A Saler storing 100, 000 during the sum- mer bought at $6,50to sellin winter at $7.50 and make $100,000 may have to sell during a war at $5.0 and lose as much. STOLE A WIFE.

TO OPEN UP THE RESOURCES OF TRE NORTH END- ——ů— Bellefontaine and Calvary Cemeteries to Be Brought Within Easy Reach—What the Read Is and Where It Goes—New City Hall Complications—Maj. Murphy's Discovery—Municipal Matters. A bill was introduced into the House of Delegates last night by Mr. Siesmund, authorizing the Eads Bridge, Fair Grounds & Cemetery Railroad Co. to construct an elec- „ tric railway. The line of the road is to be from Third and Locust streets, north to O’Falion, thence to Seventh, thence to Cass avyenne, thence west to Ninth, thencs north to Mullanphy, west to Nine- teenth, thence to Benton, thence to Twenty- second, north to Hebert street, west to Twen- ty-fifth, north to Palm, thence to Parnell, thence to Barrett, thence to Grand avenue, to Lee, to Newstead, to Florrissant, passing Bellefontaine to the south gate of Calvary cemetery. The incorporetors are D. B. Gould, Jas. Bannerman, D. P. Rowland, J. M. Loring, L. G. McNajr, John B. Rankin, E. H. Linley, aud Pulaski Langalier. In a conversation with Mr. David B. Gould to-day that gentieman gave much information as to the plans ef the project, etc. The necessity for a line covering the terri- tory through which we propose to extend ours, he said, has been apparent for some time. There is at present no method of transportation to and from Bellefontaine and Calvary, and only last Sunday there were three or four thousand people out there who were put to serious inconvenience by the lack of proper transfer facilities. The portion of the city through which we pass has inadequate railway facilities also. I hold that the development of this city dates from the time of the construction of the first cabie lines. Rapid transportation does more to develop a portion of a city than any other agency. There are many beautiful tracts of lana lying along our line which would make as desirable homesteads as any in 8t. Louis were they couvenient to an electric or cable line. We propose to furnisn an electric line which will meet this necessity. The criticism has often been passed that St. Louis has fewer outlying additions that are a credit to it than any city of ite sizein the country. We are going to try and rectify this condition. While we feel that the investment will bring no prof - itable returns for two or three years, it must eventually do so. We have not as yet agreed upon the system, but will look them all over and get the best. We want to make the trip from Third and Locust to the south gate of Calvary in about 40 minutes. If it is to the interest of the promoters, we will extend the line and open up the large tracts lying north of the city.’’ The ordinance was given first reading last night and every effort will be made to have it assed in the shortest possibie time. The ackers of the road are all well known dus! ness men of St. Louis, and the fact that they are interested in the pian is in itself am en- dorsement. Getting Badly Mixed. Things are becoming somewhat tangled over the new City Hall and the officials are beginning to kick about the site selected and are trying to blame each otherfor what they did not do. When the Oity Hall Commission was formed they went about selecting a site, which they finally did after & good deal of fuss. When Washington Park was selected they put into the code of competition a clause providing that the center of the east front should be on the center line of Walnut street so that a fine view of the hall could be the East. They never and the hill the view was not considered at all. Aiter the changes in grades had been recommended by the arohi- tect the commission was called together and recommended the change tothe board. Now Having Muloted Him. , This morning Assistant Prosecuting At- torney Dierkes issued a warrant, charging J. Finney with fraud, The defendant, an intel- ligent looking young man, is now locked up inthe Four Courts hoid-ever, having been unable to furnish the proper bond. The case against bim is a peculiar one. The prosecuting witness is a young man named Frank G. Bauer. His home for several years has been on Cottage Grove avenue in Chicago. He is now stopping at 200 South Twelfth“ street. It appears that Bauer came to St. Louis about a week aco. In looking over the daily papers he ran across an advertisement which purported to be that of J. Kinney & book agents, inaroom in the Emilie ding, 906 Olive street. Agents were wanted and a good salary was guaranteed. Baum went to the place and was met by a well-dressed young man, who introduced himself as J. Finney. He said be had inserted the advertisement, but told that he late to job, as just sent a to Kansas City that day. He advised him to watch the papers, however, as he wonld want a man te go to Springfield in a few days. Bauer kept his eye oben as directed and on the 26th inst. saw the advertisement. He called at the Emilie Building again and signed a contract to work for J. Finney & Co. three months at asalary of $60 per month. He was to go to Springfield, III., and canvass for a line of books. The young man was told that he would have to make a deposit of $25 to pay for the outfit, whlch would be sent to him at Springfield by express the following day. Bauer went to Springfleld that same even- ing and the following morning appeared at the express offices for his outfit. Noth- ing had come. He waited an entire day and then telegraphed to J. Finney & Co. asking what was the matter. He received no answer. Anotherday passed and he became suspicious, He telegraphed his employers to send him dis outfit or return his ° There was no reply. Yesterday evenin Bauer returned to 88. Louis and went a once to the Emilie Building. J. Finney was not in. The young man made a second calithis morning and demanded the return of his money. Finney refused to ac- cede to his request. Neither would he give Bauer an outfit, claiming that he had not fol- lowed his instruction. Thekey to the door was on the table. Seeing that argument was useless Bauer snatched it up, and before Fin- ney could realize his design had slammed the office door and locked it from the outside. With the key in his pocket Bauer rantothe Four Courts for an officer. Capt. Young detailed Officer Fuquaand the two started for Olive street. At the corner of Eleventh and Clark avenue they met Finney, who said he was on his way to the Four Courts to cause Bauer's for locking bim in his had es- caped by climbing over the transom. Finney was taken inte custody notwithsetand- ing his expostuiations. He has as yet made no statement of the trouble, offering, how- ever, t> bet the officer $50 to 10 cents that he was innocent. Robert Kuensler, 1407 Pine street, is a witness for the prosecution, he having answered one of Finney’s advertisements. The prisoner gives his age as twenty-three years, says he isa married man and lives at Kirkwood. Inquiries made by the police officers failed to disciose the stock of books which the prisoner claimed to have on hand. The case will be aired in the courts, as Bauer will remain im the city to see the thing through. ‘‘Namgay A complete and most interest- „ meg story on Heredity, by Rud- Doola. yard Kipling.

Sax ANTONIO, Tex., Aug. 30.—A brief an- nouncement of the murder of Max Stein, Dis- trics Judge of the Hidsigo County Circuit Court, was contained im the dispatches of August 19. He was ahot by the wife of ex- Judge H. P. McOabe, a bitter political enemy at Reynosa, Mexico, and no reasonable mo- tive could be ascribed until yesterday, when the following affecting appeal was received: Rernosa, Mexico, Aug. 20, To the American le: For two months | have been in my bed, dis. abled from a guushet wound in the foot. During this time my wife, Maria Inez, who its but 18 — old, almost from day to day has been followed and insulted by one Max Stein. He has even followed her with armed men, has questioned her virtue, and wrote a letter to the Sheriff of Karnes County, in which he expressed the belier that I was not married to her. She was brought to bed and confined . and our babe was lost all through these unheard of terrible slurs and slanders cast upon her by this same Stein, and defending that most dear to a woman her honor, she shot him through the heart and forever sealed the polluted lips of a slanderer of women’s virtue. The shooting occurred in Reynosa, Tamulpas, Mexico, on the 17th inst, She, my wife, is now in jallatthis place. We are, indeed,in need of financial aid. Gentlemen of America, can you belp my wife now in her sad plight? Do it by voluntary contributions, in the name of woman’s sanctified virtue. Send 8 that may be raised te either Albert Dean of Hidalgo, Tex.; H. P. Rentfro of Brownsville, or Don Juan Dominguez of this place, who compose a committee to re- ceive whatever is given to defend my wife. Yours truly, H. T. MoCaBeE. The shooting occurred at Reynosa, where an excursion party from Metamoras was at- tending afair. After an evening performance atthe theater Judge Stein, accompanied by his wife and daughter, entered a booth for re- freshments. The ladies had taken seats at a table and Judge Stein was about tn sit down when Mrs. McOabe rushed up to them, her long black hair streaming in the air. She seized the Judge by the arm, held a pistol to his breast and fired, and the man fell dead at her feet. Mrs. Stein sprang up and was felied to the ground bya blow from the infurlated woman’s pistol. The murderess, who is described as a beautiful woman, also knocked the Chief of Police down with her pistol and held a policeman at bay with the same weapon until she was dis- armed apd pinioned by a squad of soldiers. Mrs. McCabe’s husband, who held the position of County Judge of Carna County, Tex., for which he was ineligibie, had been recently unseated, his successor being Judge Stein. Meade, with a number of friends, endeav- ored to capture the Court- house, but, failing, fied to Mexico, where he has since resided. —2 McCabe had sworn vengeance against tein. ° SS ee Startling Discovery. The discovery by the inhabitants of a locelity hitherto unvisited by the pestilent scourge of fever and ague, that it exists in their very midst, is decidedly startling. Such discoveries are made at every season, in every part of the Union. Subsequently, when it is ascertained, asit inva- riably is at such times, through the valuable ex- perience of someone who has been benefited and cured, that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is a thoroughly efficacious eradicator of the malarial poison and a means of fortifying the system against it. a feeling of more security and tran- quility reigns throughout the whole neighbor- hood. Besides the febrile forms of malarial dis- ease, dumb ague and ague cake are removed by the potent action of the Bitters, to which science also gives its sanction as a remedy for rheuma 8 constipation, liver complaint, debility, Kidney troubles and all diseases impair- ing the organs of digestion and assimilation.

oa . — ̃ — - 5 WITH JOY ‘AND DESPAIR. HOWARD rim be- FEELINGS HURT ON READING THOMAS PLATI’S ADVICE. He Writes an Essay of His Own on Politics That Has an Interest ef Ite Own—The Physical Side ef Practical Politics Has a Little Light Shed Upon Iteis an Agreea- bie Narrative Form. HAVE read with mia. giedjoy and despair the communieation from Mr. Thomas Platt which appeared in the paper a week ago. Lrejoiced to see that justly celebrated reformer come right out boldly and referm things, flat-footed, over his own signa: ture; but, asa young man, I despaired of at- talning that high standard of usefulness to my country which he exherts us to keep for- ever in view. Mr. Platt is quite right in saying that the reformation of politica isatask for youth to umdertake. It is littie use for a man who is getting along in life and cannet reasonably expect to kp able to ‘‘hump himself’’ more than forty or ifty years longer, te tackle the purification ef politics, for he will prebably have te die and leave the job only about half done. The distinguished writer of that epistie bas been toiling for many days right here in New York State, and yet there is much tobe desired; while not even Tammany Hall has been able to purify the metropolis. Now asa young man 1 tried to doa little purifying ina mild way once, and thongh I didn’t make an entire success of it, my expe- rience and observation may be helpful to other young men who will be moved by Mr. Piatt’s appeal to embark in that line of business. It 1 recall the facts of that interesting period aright I wasfghen living in the Second Ward of Boston. I remember that a well- known citizen named Gallagher, whose moral character was as beautiful asa fighting bull pup, had been nominated for alderman by one of the two parties. I really forget which one it was; but I know that the other party seemed likely to put up one Anderson, whose saloon bad a reeord of six more fights in three months than Gallagher’s had. I forget what his other qualifications for office were, but I know that sene of thesilk stocking element were kicking. It was at this juncture that some of the yeung men in the ward began te talk about reform. I can’t remember just what THEIR PLANS were, but I know that they proposed to nom- inate a decent man, and had been 7 work several days trying to find one when I joined the movement. I remarked that they needn’t leok any further, butthey did. This offended me so much that I split off from them tem po- rarily, and hunted up the Second Ward Inde- pendent Association witha view to offering my services. In the Caucus. ‘‘I Take the Chair.’’ I learned of the existence of this association from a oe in abarber’s shop, whieh an- nounced that the independents would give a grand, select ball the following week. I¢t struck meas a good idea to make politics pleasant lu this way. I found the headquar- ters ofthe association one floor below the ground atthe rear ofa saloon. When I en tered President Johnson, sitting on the end of a beer cask, was just desiing a jack- pot on the head of a barrel. Mr. Johrwson was the color of the ace of spades—which he had in his sleeve. Ilearned that the object of the association was to obtain recognition at the polis, but I did not find out just what amount of recognition in dollars and cents would be satisfactory. I was invited to join the association and come inte the jack-pot, butafter discovering where Mr. Johnson kept the aces I did not care to do either. However, not te give of- fense, I naid the assessment of $1, whereupon the Secretary and Treasurer, despite the Pres- ident’s protest, sent out for a new pack of eards and A QUART OF BEER. After thie experience I returned to the Young Men’s Keform Club. We were told, just as Mr. Piatt says, thatthe place to reform politics is inthe primary. We decided to go to the primary and run it right. By ascer- taining the number of votes cast at the last primary and dividing it by three we obtained a fairly accurate estimate of the at- tendance. Then we et about securing the pledges of allthe young men who bad the in- terests of their country at heart, and befere the nightef the caucus we gotso many that we felt sure of having a majerity on our side. We had determined to nominate agentieman of distinguiehed lineage and high moral character who had hitherto kept aloof from politics. He assured us by letter of his ac- ceptance, but regretted that a soctal engage- ment prevented him from attending the cau. cus. It was arranged that I should take the chair. I had had some experience ina de- bating society, and flattered myself that I eould preside with grace and dignity. We marched to the hall in a body. It was more nearly filled than we had anticipated; in fact it was entirely filled with tobacce smoke, the odor of which was perceptible at a dis- Inspecting the Count. tance of several blocks. We marched in, but were somewhat disappeinted at being obliged to take position at the rear, forthe railing —— already fortified with abeut ten rews of selid toughs. Ee meeting was opened by the ohair- man of the ward association, who con- gratulated de boys’’ on the last glori. Ius triumph, and casually mentioned the name of Anderson, whereat there were oud yells of approval. Then he called for “Magoud yells for permanent chairman, and the gang with ONE VOICE suggested a person named Yates, who was —— of the Second Ward Grid Club and several other organizations of the elite. My name was also proposed bya young gentie- man of the debating club who had prepareda meat speech which nobody heard. somehow we did not appear to be getting on, and Leu that we move nearer the reilig. attempted to do so, and receivod murfi rat lasen in practical politics, — lam forced to confess that only on our number N Wer any fitness tor this et f eitigonsh ip @ were almost = colieg men, well 3 in ‘politieal economy and the science of government, but the young man whom I have mentioned was the only one ef us who appeared to have yoy any- thing in college which was useful in the pres- entemergency. He had played four years in the ’varsity foot-ball team, and this matter ef moving up to the railing was right in his line. The way he stood Second Ward toughs on their heads was the most beautiful lesson in practical politics that Lever saw. It was full of suggestions to those whose duty it is to 8 the ane: ~ oy — er tielpatlon n popular govera- — a If 4 it had not been for this young man, whose name was Brown, we never should have had any shew at ali in that caucus. But it was just like sport to him, He played that I was a foot- Ball, and he secured a touch dewn with me on the railing in just ten seconds after the game began. By this time THE TOUGHS reallzed what was going on and they crowded upon us. Brown put his back against me, as I hune over the rail, and received the on- slaught on bis ample chest. For a moment I was in doubt whether the rail or my spine would break first; then the rail gave way and we went threugh. When we got upen the platform Brow im- mediately descended into the crowd 4 his respects te some of the toughs who been particularly offensive. While he was thus engaged my supporters, whe had now gained some courage, yelledfor me to take the chair. But Yates had crawled under the rail, and now beld the chair by the back. He was a large man with a broken nose, and he did not look pleasant. When my friends Mr. Fielding Discovers the Second Ward Inde- pendent kepublican Association. shouted: ‘‘Fielding, take the echair!’’ Mr. Yates swung the chair around his head, and I took it. In fact, I took it just where most people take a chair, and it lifted me clear off the floor and nearly carried me out through a window on the right ef the platform. After this performance Yates rapped for order and called for nominations of ‘‘gents ter receive, sort an’ couat de votes. Mr. Brown thereupon approacked the rall- ing and announced that 1 was to be one of the tellers. Mr. Yates looked Mr. Brown all over and said he guessed that Icould bea teller without the formality of a vote. Other names wore suggested, and the voting soon began. I don't mind saying that if it ,hadn’t been for Brewn we shouldn't have got a dozen votes in the box; as it was we polled afairnumber. Then we retired into an aste room to COUNT THEM. I donotthink I was much use asa teller. The others put the box on a small table aud gathered about it. While they ceunted I made vain endeavors to loek over their shoulders and see what they were doing, but 1 couidn’t get a glimpse of anything. When I ventured to protest they teid me to rum away ond play marbles. Tis count had been going on for about ten minutes ir this way when Brown got his head into the room and wanted to know howl was getting along. Itold him that they were not giving mea chance, whereupon he showed symptoms of giving another iesson in prac- tical politics. But the gang outside heard him and began te pour into the room. It was a small piace and une side was only roughly bearded up. The result was that Yates and Brown bad a heated argument alongside this partition and fiually Brown ‘‘rushed’’ Yates clear through it into a vacant lot back of the bullding, and then chased him nearly a wile over fenees and through area ways. The flight of Yates showed the -astuteness of the man as a pelitician. With Brown absent, our party was not ju it.“ The vete was announced: Andersen, 200; Standish, 2; and resolutions censuring the 8 con- duct of the Reform Club were passed. It was thus that the report was printed in the papers next morning, and though Brewn finally caught Yates and put him te bed ier nearly a week, the action had little political value. I venture to add thesefew hints te the ad- mirable discourse ef Mr. Platt, which, if it hadaifauilt, was weak in its failure to empha- size the purely physical side of practical pol- ities. HOWARD FIELDING. — — ABOUT TOWN. SMALL boys set fire to the three-story brick residence at 4152 Easton avenue yesterday afternoon. The property, which is owned by Charlies H. Alcock, was damaged to the amount of 350. An alarm was sent in from bex 514.

CTA, III., Aug. 30.—Last night a com- mittee from the Carpenters’ Council waited upon the officials ofthe Brickmakers’ Union and requested that the Union co-operate with the carpenters in the strike which is to be in- augurated in this city next Monday. They were asked not to employ their men on any of the buildings which the striking carpenters Will leave. ‘This morning the officials of the Brickmakers’ Unien refused to have anything whatever to do with the strike.

The mining market was decidedly inactive, and the amount of stock changing hands was not large, but prices were firm, and in some instances higher. * 9 - For the first time in many months Montrose Placer made its appearance as a stock actually dealt in on the Mining Exchange, and traus- fers to the amount of 1,00@ shares were made. Mullally was the principal selier, and ap- peared to have complete contro! of the market. The stock started out with a strong advance. The market opened with asale of 100 shares at 55, imme- diately followed bya rise to 60, at which 200 shares were sold. The next quotation was 2½, and 200 shares were transferred at that figure.

Frost bad not materialized in the North, but, on the contrary, the weather was wariner ‘all over the West and Northwest. Every other mar- ket was suffering from a severe case of selling sick- ness and breaking rapidly in price. There were no heavy receipts anywhere except Chicago, and our own were very small, and Prime was out with one of his lwgubrious wails over crop prospects, but only one side was looked at by the crowd and it was a wild rush to sell from the opening. Censiderable corn bought on frost prospects was thrown, some stop order lots come out and the bears singged the market as hard as tber could.
