PERRY, Ga,, Oct. 29.—Tom Woolfolk, the Bibb County murderer condemned to die for slaughter of nine members of his father’s family, spent aquiet nightin his cell in the little county jail, where he nas;)been confined since being sentenced to dcath, three weeks ago. Upto2o’clock Woolfolk was kept dusy r€ceiving a succession of callers, who were admitted by twos and threes for short inter- He conversed freely with all his visitors, chatting and laughing im @h unconoeérned manner. To all he stoutly protested his innocence of Dr. BE. W. Warren, Pastor ofthe Macon Baptist Church, had an inter- view with the condemned man. To the mina- fiater he protested his innocence again, and deciared be bad made his peace with God and expected to go to heaven when he died. **I’m an innocent man,’’ he said, ‘‘and God ain’t a-going to pupish a ‘man for what he never done.’’ Woolfolk took leave of his two sisters, Mrs. Cowam and Mrs. Edwards, yesterday, the farewell being a pecullarly affecting one. Last night the doomed man went to sieep about 2 o’olock and slept soundly uptil 4, when he was awakened by the death watch. He went to sleep again ia 5 minutes and enly woke when called at 5. Ats o’clock this morning, your ¢orrespondent had an interview with Woolfolk. The pris- oner talked cheerfully for haif au hour. Vil expect to die to-day,’ he said, ‘‘and I hope I'll meet it like a man. Of course it ain’t a thing a man likes to do, die, especially the way I’ve got te die, butl am ready to go. I'd rather have it over with than to stay any longer. Idon’t kaow as i want a reprieve. I'd die pretty soon anyhow, if I had a Iiife sentence. Lain’t got any statement to make During the interview he was sitting with his footon the stoveahd smoked a ciwar, non- chalantly removifig it frém his mouth and knocking off the ashes tnconcernedly as he Swmwilied at some jest that struck him.

At 25 p. m.,the black cap was adjusted and five minutes later the trap was sprung. Wool- foik’s neck was broken. TOM WOOLFOLK’S CRIME. Os the morning of Aug. 6, 1887. in Hazard’s District, Bibb County, tweive and a bailf miles from Macon, nine people were brutally mur- @ered in their beds. The victims of the slaughter were all members of the family of oer Richard F. Weolfoik. They were Capt. R. F. Wooifolk, aged 54 years; Mrs. Mattie Woolfolk, awed 41 years; Richard Woolfolk, Jr., aged 20 years; Miss Susan Peart Wool- foik, aged 17 ‘years; Annie Woolfoik, 10 years; Rosebud Woolfolk, years; Oherlies Howard Woolfolk, Mattie Woolfolk, aged 18 and Mrs. Temple West, aged 6 The peaceful country settlement of @gards’ that furnished the scene of the awful tragedy,iwas thrown into' a state of indescribable consternation that fatal Sunday morning by the news of the butchery ears. 4 ofCapt. Woolfolk’s family and in an hour from the time the first alarm was given by Thos. G. Woo:folk, the eldest son of the fam- ily and the sole survivor of the massacre, all seat was gathered about the Woolfolk homestead. It was found that tne firet wild versions of the affair that bad flown as with the wind throughout the neighbor- ood were in no wise exaggerated. In the so recentiy happy home lay nine stiff, cold bod- ies piled in gruesome confusion in the midst @f seas and lakes of bicoad. SCENE OF THE TRAGEDY. The Woolfolk residence was one of ware, barn-shaped country bouses, so com- those 8q ‘gon throughout the agricultural regions of -BKhe South ; ‘ , & severely plain, unpretentious dwelling, one story high and with four large, squere rooms, two on elther side ofa spacious central hall. The house stood in an oak grove and on the topofa slight eminence. precyeiing about the place indicated the ome of a well-to-do planter of intelligence and education above the average, while the jporespainge of the interior betokened the nce of cultured and refimed women. An beervant paseer-by at any time before the ad tragedy would have pronounced it the “bode of a Bappy and contented family. ‘ it, @ never broke down or manifested any grief or remorse for the death of the family. One of his jailers swore that he everhbeard Woolfolk one night in his cell praying for forgiveness for the murder of bis father, but the story was NOT GENERALLY BELIEVED. Woolfolk made several desperate attempts to escape and ome ortwo of them came near being successful. The funeral of the Woolfelk family the day after the murder was an impressive occasion. All the hearses in Macon, seven in number, and two express wagons were sent out to the Weolfelk home to Dring the nine coflins to the city, where they were interred in nine graves, side by side, in Rose Hill Cemetery, overlooking the Oclmuilgee. Thousands of people attended the funeral and the scene was such an one as was never known in Macon be- fore. One of the most remarkable features of this remarkable case was the fact that the whole- sale murderer was allowed to live while the law’s tedious ways prolonged his case in a section where iyneh law is so common. Woolfolk very probably owed bis escape trom a summary lynching, however, to the fact that but asbort while beforea man had been lynched in Macon for criminally assaulting a woman who was afterwards found tobe a woman of badrepute, Thatawful example had turned the pubiic mind against lynch law. Woolfolk’s defence was conducted by Col. J. C. Rutherford, who made himeelf famous by the stubborn fight he made for the prisoner. The case was by far the most sensational ever known In Georgia. Even now there are many people in the very neigh- borhood where the crime was committed who doubt the guilt of Tom Woolfolk. Hear the Soul of a Krakauer Piano sing. Tohear itis to buy it.

The following receipt was forwarded by Mr. Bryson in acknowledg- ment: LOUISIANA, Mo., Oo’. 29, 1890. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Your favor received inciosing $100 in pay- ment of prize for suggeating the best idea for the St. Louis Exposition of 1891. Very truly yours, 0. C. BRYSON. Writing concerning his idea which won the indorsementef the members of the Expos!- tion Directory Mr. Bryson says: ‘*l have taken part inalithe contests inau- gurated by the POST-DISPATCH, but the prize awarded mefor the best suggestion in tue Exposition Idea Contest is the first and only prize IThaveever been fortunate enough to secure. In the contest for the most clever lie l1did my very best prevaricating, but was dis- tanced Im the race. In the guessing contest on the highest vote received by the most popular lady teacher, who was to takethe European trip, I sent in over 100 guesses, Dut missed the prize by 10,000 or more, In the recent contest for best ideas Iwas alittle more deliberate and gave the mattera iittle more thought than formerly, and while I considered my idea an attractive suggestion, [had no more idea of receivi the award than Idid inthe other contest. ‘-The Exposition directory having given my suggestion the distinction it has, and having beer so numerousiy congratulated on my idea and its having been received in such ae favor, I can now see, more than when wrote it, how attractive the Exposition di- rectory can make it by some modifications and improvements. **] have attended the St. Louis Exposition every year since its fortunate opening and have been a close observer of its.attractive- ness. Recollecting the favor with which some of the large audiences of 1889 received the singing of some of the most popular vocalists of &t. Louis; I conceived the idea of bringing together the best singers of our sister Stutes in a friendly interstate contest for such a prize as would make itan object for the very best, and on such terms as would oost all the contestants notbing in the ecompetition,’’ Horstord’s Acid Phosphate.

Pee A Birchall Believed to Have Writ- ten the Letter Signed “The Colonel.” Result of Inquiries in London Re- garding the Murderer’s Al- leged Oonfederate.

Logpor, Oct. 29.—Inguiries were made ‘at Morley’s Hotel in Trafalgar square to-day to ascertain what truth there is in the story from Mentreal that Reginald Birchall, now usder sentence of death at Woodstock, Oanada, for the murder of F. 0. Benwell, Mrs. Birchall and the Colonel, the alleged author of the let- ter received by Birchall, in which the writer acknowledges that be shot and killed Ben- well, were at the botel last January. The books of the botel show that an American styling himeelf ‘*Ool. Lewis’’ arrived there on Jan. 1 and remained until Jan. 2%. Bircball arrived om Jan. 4 and was a guest until Jan. 18. Mr. Stevens of Moatreal, the gentieman whe told eof sesing Birchall, Benwell and the **Oolonel’’ at the nhetel, registered at the hotel on Jan. 165 and left en Jan. 20. ‘*Col. Lewis’’ was well knowan by the servants of the hotel and they retain a vivid recollection of him. They de- scribe him asa somewhat pompous lookicg man. He wasSfeetéinches im height, and stout. He wore a long moustache and his complexion was inclined to be fair. He was a heavy drinker and was generally known as the ‘‘Oolonel.’’ Birchall and ‘*Ool. Lewis’’ psoemed to be on intimate terms with each other. One of the waiters remembers seeing them often tegether and they appeared to be well in eaeh others’ confidence. Since Jauu: ary the ‘‘Colesel’’ bas often called at the hotel, but.bas sot remained asacuest, He left directions that any letters addressed to bim atthe hotel should be forwarded to him at Streatham, Surrey. His exact ad- Gress has not been traced. Birchall and the ‘‘Colonel’’ while at the hotel, often invited a gentiemaz to pass the evening with them. Theservants cannot identify any vis- itor whe answered the description given to Benwell. ‘*‘Col. Lewis’ went to America ia either October or November, 1889. His re- peated visits to the hotel render it unlikely that he has been out of England sinee Jan- wary. GEORYUE BENWELL'S OPINION. WoopsrTook, Ontario, Oct. 29.—George Ben- well, brother ef Bireball’s victim, who came here to testify at the trial, bas ieft for New York, en route to Englasd. Before leaving here he expressed himself as feeling that Birchall must have hed a eonfederate in the crime. He sald that if Bireball could not say who is was that fired the shots that killed his brother, the Government should stay judgment until the mystery had beer cleared up. Mrs. Birchall when she read the letter signed ‘‘The Colonel,’’ burst inte tears, and said that it was only further confirmation of ber faith in her husband's innocence. A OLUMSY FABRICATION. The Jackson (Mich.) letter is regarded as the clumsiest fabrication Birchall has yet put forth. Amexamination of the handwriting and comparison of it with samples of Biroh- all’s shows a very general resembiance be- tween the two and in seme cases a Very strik- ing likeness. A friend of Birchali’s said to-day: ‘‘I think the best defense at the trial would have been insanity—absence of all meral sense. The man issogiven to iying that he lies even when he must be aware that he is cutting the ground from under the feet of those who are getting up the petition fer a commutation of his sentence.’’ Among the communications recently re- ceivea by Mrs, Birchall is one from an en- terprising fellow who ceclares his willingness to take Birchali’s piace at the hanging for éhe sum of $1,000. OTTaWwa, Ontario, Oct, 29.—Mre. Biroball will probably present the Oanadian petition for reprieve of ber husband, who is under sentence of death for the murder of F. 0. Ken: well om Nov. 5. Sir Charlies Tupper has cabied that be bas forwarded the petition for com- mutation of Birchall’s sentence. This petition was got up in Eegiand by Birchall’s family and friends. The publication of the letter signed ‘‘The Oclonel’’ has strengthened belief in Birch- all’s story that he did not do the killing, but that it was done by a confederate. Birchall gays if be hag any suspicion that he would bave beea charged with the murder he would have fed. He was not arrested until many Gays alter the death of Benweil. Separate Scheels in Canada, OTTAWA, Oatario,Oct.29.—More than ordinary futerest has beer aroused throughout Canada ie anticipation of the Dominion Government’s ection with regard to the separate school question and the abolition ef the French lan- guage as an official language in the courts and Aseembly of Maniteba Provinee. Both were the subject of provincial legisiation jast year. The separate schools and the French language were abolished, and it realiy became a question as to whether the Dominion Goverament weuld exercise its prerogative in disallowing this act or permit it to become a law by withholding executive interference. The announcement thatthe Government at Ottawa had decided to leave the matter to the courts, thus shirking official responsibili- ty, will mot reassure the Oatholics of Manito- ba. Sir Hector Langren, a member of the Cabinet, recently intimated to a Winnipeg sudience that the act would be disallowed. Recent events shew him te be set im accord with his celleagues on this impertant question and it ie net sounlikely that Sir Hecter, who is Bir Johs Macdonald's right hand mas, will resign his portfolie ana appealto his cem- patriote for as indorsement of bis course. Gladstese at Dundee. Lorponr, Oct. 2%.—Mr. Gladstone arrived at Dusedee to-day and was presented with the freedem ofthe city. Im accepting the honor Mr. Gladstone made an address, in which he referred to the commerce ef the city, which, it was sald, was threatened by the adoption new tariff bill by the not, eS ome, ap “ ; 4 &, ~ coe, - me ft ee ee De na, . lds ~~ B. wa - = ees _— ES incidental collateral blows on other countries, did far greater mischief to the people of the country which adopted such a policy, Mr. Gladstone them. proceeded to con-~ trast the decrease of the tariff? in Exgiand with the increase of the tariff in the United States and said he fouad comfort for England in the fact, tbat it was mot true that any tariff adopted by any country on earth could interfere serious- ly with the prosperity of Great Britain. The first effect of the McKinley bill would be to raise the stamdard of pricesin the United States. This meant a diminished power of exportation. This again meant that while we were damnifed im one of our twenty markets, we derived benefit in the other nineteen from the diminished power of the merchants of the United States to com- pete with British merobants in any one of them, this being due to the augmentation of prices in the United States and the tmcreased restraints under which the merchants of the latter country have to work. He advised the marufacturers to allew America to find out for herself the evil effects that will follow the adeption of the bigh tariff. A Mouraing Hasband’s Diccevery. MONTREAL, Oct. 29.—Last May when the Leugts Point Insane Asylum was burned it was believed that over 100 persons were burned in it. Many patients escaped, but it was supposed they had all been recaptured. Among those in thé asylum but missing was the wife of A. Gauthner, a farmer of 8&t. Laurent. It was thought she had been burned. Early yesterday morning Gautnner, accompanied by a emeighbor, was comlag inte town with a wagon load of produce wher they sawa woman lying beside the road. They roused her and asked what she was doing there. Shesaid she was hunting for the road and had traveled many weeks, mentioning places she had visited in Lower Quebeo, 200 miles from Montreal. Gauthner asked her to get into nis wagon and hewould drive her to a hotei fartheron. As she stepped into the wagon he flashed his lantern into her face and dropped with an exclamation almost ef terror. The woman he had found was his wife, who he suppposed was dead and whom he had not seen for over eighteen months. They drove her home at once where it was found that she was half starved aud nearly dead with cold. She is incapable of telling a coherent story of ber wanderings since her escape from the asylum fire, but ber sufferings must have been terrible as her feet and limbs are blistered and sore. Thero is great excitement ia the village over the affair and some people regard Mrs. Gauthner’s retarn almost as a miracie. Sbe will not be returned to the asylum. Laber Troubles ian Australia. LONDOR, Oct. 29.—The disceuraging reports received from Australia in reference te the great shipping strike are most disappointisag to the friends of labor in England. In fact, neither side seems to be gaining any advant- age, but the unfortusmate struggle has resolved iteelf into a fight between two resolute bodies of men, and apparentiy will end oaly when the funds of one side are entirely exhausted. The Owners’ Federation in England is sending assistance to the ship-owners of the astipodes in sums of thousands of pounds, while the assistance rendered the laborers by English usions can be estimated only by hundreds. The struggle is as disastrous to Australia and New Zealand asa civil war would be, and bears out Sir Henry Parke’s statement that a bombardmént could net be worse for Sidney than the presént strike. It seems now to bea question of how lomg the dockers can held out against the owners’ money, while on the other hand the owners’ losses must ron into enormous sums. The Radical newspapers of Australia and New Zealand describe the continuation of the strike as madness, and deciare that the Dock- ers’ Union cannet hepe to pit its collections from trades unionists against British capital. The friends of bots sides are endeavoring to bring to an end this war and induce the lead- ere of the dock strikers to meet the owners on, common ground—the making of the necessary concessions. The trade with Australia is se- riously affected, hundreds of vessels being tied up unable te get loads. Crispi’s Address at Turis. RomeE, Oct. 29.—Sig. Orispi delivered an ia- teresting address at a banquet ia Turin last night. Referring tothe Anglo-Itailau nego - tiations the Premier said that Italy bad no reason to suspect for a moment the good in- tentions of England as an old and faithfu, friend of united Italy, and ne iracident, such as that in regard to Kassala, would be per- mitted to Interrupt a friendship founded on reciprocal interests, historical reasons, polit- joal traditions and common sentiments of liberalism. Sig. COrisp!l referred in terms ef condempation tothe Irredentist agitation, as giving eneouragement to the extermal and internal enemies of Italy, aud he spoke of the value ofthe Triple Alliance in making Italian influence felt threugbout Europe. Mr. Gladstene’s Narrow E«cape. Loxpon, Oct. 29.—It transpires that Mr. Gladstone bad an extremely narrow escape while inspecting the new Firth eof Forth bridge ,adayor two ago. While he was ab- sorbed in examining the different parts of the structure a train rushed by at a high rate of speed, just grasing the ex-Premier in its fiight, and causing him to cling to the girders to prevent his fulling into the water. The gravity of the situation would have un- nerved a younger amd more vigorous man than Mr. Gladstone. He retained his pres- ence of mind and betrayed much less agita- tion than any of these who witnessed his peril. Leaving Russia fer Erazil. “Lorpor, Oct. 2.—Great numbers of Poles and Galicians continue to emigrate to Brazil, despite the rigid prohibitory measures re- sorted to by the Russian authofities, whe are preventing as many as possible from crossing the border. Itis estimated that within the last six months over 800,000 bave shipped from various ports for the new South American re- public, and deubtiess as many more weuld take their departure within six weeks if the officials would permit their perfect freedem iz the matter.

Censiderable Excitement in the Bank eof Cemmoeree Buildiag Over the Suicide ef a Young Lady Stenegrapher—She Could Net Help It, She Said—Sent toe the City Hespital ia a Dying Conditien.« Mies Cora G. Sickles, a stenographer in the empley of Buchanan & Cowen, lumber deal- ers, committed suicide shortly before 12 o’clock to-day inthe office of the company, located on the sixth floor of the Bank of Com- merce building, room No. 6. Both Messrs. Buchanan & Cowen reside in Texas and their St. Louis business isunder the manage- mentof Mr. H. P. Harrington. Mr. Harring- ton left the office about 10 o’clock and it was during his absence that the deed was com- mitted. The adjoining room, No. 604, is oc- cuplied by the Oontinental Land & OCOattle Oo. and the door between the two rooms is generally left open and was open this forenoon, when Bell, the Secretary, er one of his clerks, suddenly noticed «a woman stretched out on the floor in Buchanan & Cowen’s office. Both gentlemen sprang Into the room, and saw at once that it was the company’s stenograper, Miss Cora E. Sickles, and, supposing that she had fainted, one of them hurried down to the fourth floor to Dr. Walter Cole’s office and called the doctor. The doctor’s report is best teldin his owa words. DR. COLB’S STATEMENT. **It was about 1] :45 o’clock when agentieman called me to room 606. I foued a woman there in an ipsensible condition, epparentiy in an epileptic fit, but her pulse showed that such was notthe case. She had taken poison, but We found a a note on the table on which she bad written: ‘Ieould net help it. Piease forgive me for whatI bave done.’ There was a little giaes onthe table, which she had evidently emptied, butI could not tell from the smell what it contained. In fact, there was no smell to it. There was alsoa bottic of some light colored liquid on the tabie, but I could not tell in the hasty examination I made what itwas. The woman rematied in an insensi- bie condition until removed ia as ambulance to the City Hespital.’’ IN BAD HEALTH. Mr. Harrington returned to his office shortly after the removal of the. young lady, but he conid throw so light upon the cause of the suicide, exceptto give the information that Miss Sickles had been in bad health for some time and that ker suicide, or attempt at sul- cide, might have been due to that fact. ‘‘I left here aboutan hourandahalf ago,’’ he said, “Yand noticed nothing unusual about ber. She was in our empley more than a yoar, in fact, since August 1889, and I should take her to be about 22 years old. She had no love affair thatlI know of or any trouble of any kind except that arising from her sickness.’’ Mr. Harrington did motknow her address, but thought she lived on Cote Brilliante ave- nue. The city directery gives her address as 3116 Scheol street. The ambulance stopped at the dispensary only iong enough for Drs. Priest and Jacobson te make a hasty exam!- nation. She was sinking fast and they did sot think she would live more than an hour or two ifthationg. She was beyond all hope ef recovery. The news of the suicide spread rapidly throughout the la:ge building, as neariy everybody located there had met tne young lady, and many.knew her personally. So much excitement has not been created in the building since it was erected. At 2 o’ciock the City Hospital reported that the girl was still living, but that she could not live long. The poison taken was supposed to be Rovghon Rats, but the doctors were not positive about it. The young lady came here from Cincingati about two years ago. bottle of medicine was found on Miss Sickles’ desk which had been prescribed by the doc- tor. She wasto take teaspoonful of it after after every meal. Later—A telephone message from the City Hospital at 2:80 o’clock announce that Cora Sichier had just died. A QUEER LARK, Twe Men Try to Force a Mule te Drink Beer. SCRANTON, Pa. Oct. 29.—Jesse Cribben and Joseph Benspett, who were arrested by the agents of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals for trying to force a mule to drink beer, bave been caiied for trial before Alderman Aram. The trial will be concluded en Friday. According to the witnesses who have testified, itappears that the men feund the animal wandering through the streets of Leckawanna and took itto the saloon of Pat- rick Gibbons, where they fastened the beast in front ofthe door. After they had spenta few bours in the safoon they concluded it would be a good thing to have the muie par- ticipate in toelr festive celebration. Accord- ingly they forced the mule inte the saloon and began to pour beer down its throat, but the mule objected as sturdily as any Pronibition- ist, and showe@ a& decided antipathy to the beverage. The revellers were somewhat dis- p) at this, and one of them mounted the anima! and rode him around tne bar-room, to the delight of all present. Then all joined in and threw the animal on the floor and jumped on it. Fimaily the mule shook off its torment- ors ands ted ont of the bar-room. The owner, Mr. George Englies of Lackawanna, complained to the Society for the Prevention of Oruelty to Avimals, and Cribben and Hen- mett were arrested. TRE ISAACS STORE ROBBERY.

At 9:45 Phis morning an alarm of fire was turned on from box 215 by Foreman Wm. Lee of the 8t. Louis Cooperage Ce.) loeated at Main and Arsenal streets. Fi had been discovered in the steeds at the extreme west end of the large yards used by the company for the storage of barrel staves, hoops, headings and other coopers’ supplies, the flames being first seen by a workman named Wingate, who immediately gave the alarm te Foreman Lee. The yarde, which are triangular in shape, were filled with coopers’ stock, and the fire starting In the west shed spread to two others and from them to the lumber earried uncovered in the yards. A SECOND ALARM. Its rapid spread threatened the entire prop- erty of the company, comprising the cooper shops, and the stock of lumber in the yards extending from Main to Second street, and representing about $40,000 in value. When Engines 11,8 and 1 of the Fire Departmént arrived on the scene in response to the first alarm, the entire yard, filled with staves, headings and hoops, was in flames, and a second alarm was turned in. ‘Hook and ladder com- panies 1 and 4 and engines 7, 15 and 16 re- spoaded, with Assistant Chief Finnerty, and the fre was fougbtfrom three sides of the yard. It was soon checked im its spread, and the work of the department then consisted only in preventing the biazefrom again yet- ting a headway in the inflammable steek. The three sheds with thelr contents were destroyed, and the entire stock carried in the yard ruined by partial burniag and the ‘‘emoking,’’ which rendered it useless for barrel stock. The total loss is pi the company at $10,000 om the stock of coopers’ material and $1,000 om the sheds, fully cov- ered by insurance placed through Benjamin E. Kimball’s agency. Adolphus Busch of the Anbeuser-Basch Brewing Co. was at the scene ofthe fire, the grain storage warebouses of his company beingonly half a block north ofthe biaze. Manager J. M. Uhambers of the 8t. Louis Cooperage Uo. believes that the fire originated from sparks from the Arsenal fire of last night, which was onthe same biock, and that it had smoldered sinee that time un- til discovered. Beyond this explanation aad that of sparks from a passing engine, tbe origin of the fire is uncnown. The 8.

Phillips gave the alarm and Night Watchman Tom Fox turned on an alarm from box 218, in the Arsenal grounds. Tbe department re- sponded promptly, but the flames de- stroyed the three frame buildings used b the Engineers’ Department, together with their contents. The total loss ig placed at $1,000, upon which there isno insurance, and the fire is believed to have started from sparks froma locomotive. The Arsenal is under charge of Capt.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Oct. 29.—An ingenious mechanie in this city, James Hamilton, has finished a fine working model of an entirely new method of adjustment of propellers for. ocean steamships. It consists ofthree great hor izontal shafts lying parallel toeach other and extending outward from thestern of the vessel. Toeach shaft a three-blade schrew proprelier is attached, the centralor middle one being in area twice that of the other pro- pellers. Within the vessels the three shafts are joined transversely with strong rods and have clamps attached so that one or all can be instantly detached if neces- sary. A triple expansion engine of great power is to run each shaft. The inventor claims his system will give a more uniform . motion and with the same horse power ¢6x- erted by the engines will give far greater re- sults. In other words, if 10,000 horse power exerted on two propellers gives a vessel @ speed of twenty miles an hour, the same power exerted on three propellers will give twenty-five miles an hour. Another impor- tant point with the invention is the many re- sources it possesses In case of a break-down. When at sea the breaking of a shaft or artof an engine is often «a serious matter. nthis device there are nine combinations which can be made torunthe ship. This m be better understood by saying that the thres engines and the three shafts must each be broken or disabled to put the ship iu a help- less condition. If one or even two sh should break the combined herse power of the three engines can be thrown upon or — to the remaining shaftand the speed not greatly diminished. Should one or twoen- gines break down, the remaining engine car still run on two or three propellers. The de- vice.is to be submitted to a large ocean steam- ship building firm in Scotiand.

THE SHERIFF’S SCHEME NOT WORKING AS SMOOTHLY AS EXPECTED. - The Irish-American Republicans Repudiate the Chief Factor in the Republican Cam- paiga—The Independedt Labor Move- meovt—Presser Workers Cepture a Cobb Club—General Political News. Tne local campaign seems to have settied down into a fight for and against Pohimar, and the Sheriff,seemsain some way to bave made himself the real issue im the election. He has been assisied init by the oppesition of the Republican orgas, a combination with a Democratic faction and his position as the representative of the local Republican boss. Whatever is heard ef politics nowadays, is more or less Connected with Pohimans, ard wha is principally heard is series of kicks against ‘him. The Fourteentha Ward Republican Club has indorsed Stead for the same reason that the German Republicans in both the Fourteenth and Twenty-fourth Wards are complaining because Pohiman made Kiicuillen a commit- teeman from the Fourteenth and Maleney com mitteemara from the Twenty-fourth Ward. The Germans say that they carried the Re- publican banner in the darkest hours and they are not willing now to let the Sheriff set Irish Republicans ever them in order that he may win certain votes for himself at the com- ing election. The complaints tn these two wards are loudand long, and the prediction ia made that Pohiman, though he may get some Democratic votes therein, will lose more Republican votes. He has made * canvass of all the saloons and stores . with sa- loon attachments in the Twenty-fourth and asked the proprietors to support him, telling them that his reputation for standing by those who stand by him ig weil grounded, aad if they will support bim now they need not hesitate to ask for favors after election day. Thie kind of work, in addition te the prosecu- tion ef all delinquent liquer dealers whe will not promise to support Pohliman, leads the Sherif to think that he can control the saleon vote independent of party and win on that and his combination with Mayor Noonan. He is making a bard fight among Democrats for the pa Sey of making it easy forthe City Hall and of the Democratic party to swing its following iate lize. He has united his cause with thatef certain other Republican candi. dates who have been coaxed, wheedied or frightened into working or Pohiman at the eame time that they work for themselves. One of them went on ’Change afew days ago and saw quite a number of men who were inpciined to be friendly to him. He taiked in hisowa behalf and invariably as he was leaving he said: ‘‘Now don’t forget te vote for my friend Pohliman.’’ The Sheriff has tied himself up with the other candidates and the City Hall Democrats in such a way that itis generaily said now that unless Poni- man is elected the whole Kepublican ticket will go down. POHRLMAN REPUDIATED. Another i aumtiten ciub witha large mem- bership has repudiated John H. Pohiman, the Republicas candidate for Sheriff. The latest organization tothrow Filley’s chief lieuten- ant overbeard isthe Irish-American Repub- lican Clab, which meets weekly at 1317 Frank- linavenue. The ciub held a largeiy attended meeting lastevening,the object being to ratify the Republican pominees. President Jobn Lysaght was inthechair and Simon Jordan was Seoretary. Thos. J. Prosser, Boss Filley them made to indorse the entire ticket. Ob- jection was then raised te inciuding Pohiman by Patrick Coughlin. He madeamotion to repudiate Pohlman and Chairman Lysaght re- fused to put it to the meeting. A lively wrangle followed and Coughlin finally put the metion himseif. It was carried with a yelland Lysaght anda few othere who tried to preverat the repudiation of Pohiman icft the ball vowing vengeance against the others. Instructions to Supervisors. George E. Smith, Chief Supervisor of Elec tions, to-day cempleted his list of supervisors by fling in the United States Circuit Court a number ef nominations te fill vacancies in his previous list. Mr. Smith has prepared and printed for the supervisors a pamphiet of ‘*inetructions,’’ which should also be labeled cautions. They are told that they will be pro- tected in the proper performance, of their duties, but ‘‘no insolent, het-headed, op- pressive or effensive conduct or exercise of authority on the part of amy supervisor will be tolerated or excused. ‘*The Federal statute requires that you shall be selected from different political parties in each voting precinct, but you must under- stand that having accepted the appointment and taken the oath te diligentiy, faithfully and impartially discharge the duties of your Office, those duties are not to be perfermed in a partisan spirit. The sole objectand end of the law Is te secure to each qualified voter his right to vote and have his vote counted and returned witheut regard to his political opinions, and to detect, prevent and punish lilegal voting and counting. Youare therefore forbidden to inquire into the political opinions or party prefereaces of any citizen; with such matters you have notl- ing whatevertodo.

Louis nnd Chicago—What the Vanderbilts Paid for Their Reading Steck—General Railroad News, It would appear thatallthe nolse and fuse that bave been raised about the removal of the headquarters of the Transcontinental As- sociation to Chicago has been entirely un- warranted, According to Chairman James Smith, whois back in the city, there is no intention of removing the headquarters of the association and instead of advocating a change as he has been | fepresented as doing he gays he prefers to have the headquarters remain where they are. : The talk was started by an alleged interview k with Mr. Smith published In a Ubicago paper, in which he was quoted as stating that he In- tended to have the headquarters removed to the Windy City, Mr. Smith says he never made any such statement to anybody, and to areporter of the PosT-DisPaTOH who cailed : on bim this morning to interview dim | on the subject he said that, no steps had been taken looking toward the removal of the association head- quarters. One ortwo members of the asso- clation had remarked inoldentally that as the | members were frequently in Chicago attend- ing other meetings the headquarters of the association should, asa matter’ of conven- ence, be moved there. They were mere comments made in the eourse of ordinary conversation and no action was ever taken by anybody looking toward having the head- quarters changed, When the suagestions were dropped Mr. Smith says he opposed the plan and gave them his reasons why he thought the office should be kept in St. Louls, At no time did he ever make a remark advocating aremovail of the head- quarters from here, Mr. Smith says, and as he has as maasy friends here as in Chicago he would as soon live here asthere. He has reasons, he says, for preferring 8t. Louls to Chicago as a headquarters for the association. In reference te the charges that he called all the meetings of the association in Ob icago r. Smith showed the re- porter the rules eres the association which state bat the date and place ofall meetings ies be decided by a vote of the members of the association ,so that the chairman bas nothing todowith naming the place. If be bad the selecting of the place mith says be would naturally name St. Louis. as it would bethe most convenient plecetohim. Hesays thateince he became’ chairman of the association a year ° last June, two meetings of it have been held in this city, although it holds very few meetings. Last spring the association met at San Diego, Cai., and meetings of it has been held at New York, St. Pauland otber points as well as Chi go. The custom of meeting at different plage prevailed before he became connected with the Association. Big Four Annual Meeting, The stockholders of the Cleveland, Cincin- nati, Chicago & St. Louis Rallway Co., known as the Big Four Route, are holding their an- nual meeting to-day at the general offices of the company in Cincinnati. It is anticipated that the pregent directors aad officers will be re-elected. The following matters will come up at the meeting for consideration aad action: l. As to making a compact with the Oincin- nati & Springfield Raltiroad Co., modifying the leage and contract now in existence between the Big Four Co. and the last named railroad coimpapby. 2. As to the execution of a lease or operating contract with, and the acquisition by the pur- chase of stock or otherwise of the Colam as, Sprinadeld & Cincinpat! Rallroad, and the is- suing for that purpose of the increased capital stock of the Big Four Uo. to the amount of $500,000 at par, and also authority to issue bonds of this company to the amount of §1,- 240,000, payable on the Ist hy | of September, 1940, with interest at the rate 4 per cent | en annum, to be secured Dy a mortgage upon tne property covered by the said lease or oper- ating contract. 8. As tothe execution of a lease or operating contract with, and the acquisition by the pur- chase of stock or otherwise of the C acinnati, Sandusky & Oleveiand Railroad and its branches, and the issuing for that pas ose of the increased capital stock of the Big Four ‘Co. to the amount of $3,212,680 at par of the stock of the company. Impertant Meeting Te-Day. Amovement is on foot to have another meeting of the Northwestern Cemmittee of the Westera Passenger Association Wednes- day morning, says the Chicago Herald. At one time it looked as ifthe meating last week would result in restoring harmony sofar as St. Pauli rates are concerned, but the confer- ence of Friday last broke up without anything being accemplished, Now itis propesed to get the representatives of the roads a ge ad again to see if something definite cannot accomplished. One plan proposed of ereuting a better fecling ainong the roads is that eac ofthe roads should fle with the chairman monthly statements givitg statistics in de- tallof the business done by it during the nenth. When a general passenger agent finds the business of his road decreasing at auy particular point be catis upon his local agent there fer reasons why this should be so and the reply be receives almost invariably is that the competitors are cutting rates. There- upos orders are issued to local agents to get the busineas by making similar rates if neces- sary. New, it is argued that local agents are too prone to makesuch eobar and te cever up thelr own inactivity un It ie thought that if statistical statements such as are proposed were filed they would show that the decline in business complained of was generaland not owing to secret cutting, as alleged, and would consequentiy prevent much of the secret rate cutting sow orted to to meet supposed cute en the part of conm- temporaries. The matter is to be considered at the meeting on Wednesday. .

An important emergency mecting of officers ofthe First Regiment, N. G. M., called by Adjt. Batdorf in the absence of Col. OC. D. Comfort, was held last night at the Arfhory, at which action was taken that will prevent the disbandment of the regiment on Nov. 1, as had been decided upon. The meeting was of officersof the line and was made imperative by the fact that the va- rious companies composing the First Regl- ment had commenced packing up the com- pany property in thelr respective quarters, preparatory to abandonmentof the Armory. The absence of the Colonel commanding at this critical moment in regimental history apparentiy ieft no other course opén to the companies aed disbandment was accepted as inevitable. THE ONLY COURSE. Two days after the Citizens’ Commit- tee, notified Col. Comfort of its with- drawal from the financial support of the local militia, that officer left the city for a hunting trip to Arkansas, afd leaving no instructions with the regimental adjutant, the only course left epen was to accept the situation and dis- band. Yesterday the following notice was sent out by company commandersto the én- listed men ip their commands: HEADQUARTERS COMPANY — kIRST REGIMENT N. G. Ae St. Louis, Oct. 2, 1890. Sirn—You are hereby ordered to attend ry peering oa Menday next, Norv. 3, at 8 o’ clock ° to re-enlist or make application for Bonesable discbarge. By order Captain commanding This notice was intended primarily for those men three years’ term expired Oct. 18, bat was in fact the officis! beginning of the general dis- bandment. Recognizing this fact and know. ing that to await Col. Comfort’s retura would mean the irrevocable dissolution of the First Regiment, Adjt. Batdorf acted without orders and made a burried convass emong buginess men interested In the malina- tenance of a local militia. He repre- sented to them that the regiment was preparing to disband on Saturday and that unless prompt action was taken the local State troops would go out of service on that date. The resultofthe Adjutant’s ‘‘far- lorn hope’’ was the raising of $200 for immedi- ste Armory expenses, and the formation of a comnittee of business men for the purpose of raising a popular subscription to keep the First Regiment afloat, at least until the State Legisiatare coula take action upon the miljtia appropriation bill, The treasurer of this committee is Mr. NatG. Pierce, Secretary of the Samuel Cupplies Woodenware VUo., and the committee is vomposed of representative business men whose interests demand the yexistence of the militia in St. Louis. A BRIEF RESPITE With this much accomplished vesterday the oMicers’ meeting last bight resulted in.s brief respite from the fate which has been impend:- ing over the First Regiment during the past ten days. Adjutant Batdorf reported the con.- Gitjon of sffairsa, and the varieus company commanders atonce issued orders to their companies that the Armory would not be closed on Nov. and that preparations for immediate disband- mene be discontinued. The janitor and other help at the Armory were also pnoti- fied to continue in their positions natil further notice. The officers then discussed the elsua- tion fully and made arrangements for ch ing the demoralization caused by the first effects of the Citizeas’ Committee action, In the absence of Col. Comfort no official reg- imental action could De taken, and {it was decided to await his return befure ee ting action that wight afterwards be found i i, but to proceed as fully as possible along the line of relief opened’ by Adjt.

The Western Union will prebably suoceed in doing what it wanted to de and the local branch of the Brotherhood will be dissolved. Last Monday four of the moet efficient and oldest men in the Western Union office were discharged for the reason that ‘‘their services were not satisfactery.’’ Two of these men are officers inthe Brotherheod of Telegra- phers here, and some days prior to their dis- charge were given to understand in an in- direct way that unless they dropped the Brotherhoed they would have to go. They made no disturbance when they went outana did net try to incite any fll-feeling against the company, as they feund pesitions a few hours after they were discharged. Yesterday morning two more men, James H. Brennan and J. 8. Wilson, were discharged for the reason that their services were not satisfactory. When the news spread among the other employes seven of them walked out ia sympathy with the men and disgusted with the high handed proceeding of the merciless company. Whea the might force ofthirty men arrived at 5 o’ clock yesterday evening they were told of the affair aad refused to goto work. A committee called on Col, Lara C. Baker, the local man- ager, and in fifteen minutes returned and ordered the mentowoerk. It was said that Col. Baker gave the committee to understand that no Brotherhood men would be retained in the Westera Union Co., but if they pro- fessed net to beleng to the organization tiey could return after filing their application and having it passed on, as ail applications are. These who waikea out through symra- thy and who were not members of the Brotherheod ceuld take their old places. The strike, which lasted abeut filteen wian- utes, was thus ended. BAKER’S POSITION. Thies morning the six men whe were dis- charged and those whe waiked out met on Third streetand appeinted a committee to wait on Col. Baker. That gentieman teld Messrs. Tuodorand McNeill that he received them individually and not as repre- sentatives of any order or body. He said be weuid consider their applications if they wanted to work for the company and would reinstate these who walked eut without the formality of an application. This, he sald, applied to every individual op- erator. ben the committee reported to the gathering down stairs, a meeting was called at once, and the crowd of about thirty men or more went to Eleventh and Lo- Cust streets where they went into secret session. The result of the meeting was thet the Grand Lodge was ~ dressed a tietter by Mr. ©. McNeill, the local President, termdering a resignation of the branch. Tne members were informed that they were at liberty to say that they did not belong to the Brotherhood ang their resig- nations in writing were unnecéssary. The details of disbanding the local body and dis- tributing the funds among the members in wood standing will be attended to at subse- quent meetings. President McNeil, discussing this action this morning, said: ‘‘lt was all that remained forustodo. If we remained out the com- pany would cortinue te discharge Brother- ood operators, and its action would drive outa great many of the men who do not belong to the Brotherhood. Thisis going to be a hard winterand ¢very man working will need all the money he can earn. We saw that a strike, almost general in ite character is about to break upon us and we, the officers of the local body, decidea that if any action on our part ceuld avert the trouble aad prevent any sufferings or sacrifices eur friends are rape and wiliiag to undergo we should oO 80.

Lara OC. Baker that he is the most popular division superintend. entin the Western United States.

He understood the motive of the Western Union gimp He Ce. in making this ght avd did his duty with. a gentieness and gracethat managers in other cities Bave lacked, as the strikes in those cities would indicate. In 1878 and 1883 there were general telegraphers’ strikes, and it is estimated that the lust one cest the Western Tpion $1,000,000 to defeat it. The telegraphers were well organized then, and it was the fear of another strike under the organization of the Brotherhood when it became strong osongs that caused the company'to act as it as. | Ot COURT NEWS. Evideuce Heard in a Suit en a Stock Sub- scription—Ceurt Notes. Judge Withrow to-day heard the evidence in the ease of Wm. H. Scudder, assignee of the Nationa! Wrapper & Packing Co. vs. 8. H. Klinger. This its a sult on a stock subscription. Mr. Klinger subscribed to 150 shares of the National Wrapper Oo. This company was consolidated with the National Wrapper & Packing Co., stock in the new company bdeing exchanged for the oid share ‘oréshbare.

The assignee has allowed claims amounting to $2,500, to pay which he wants to collect the ameunt due on Mr. Kilayer’s stock oem lt lg which nothing was ever paid, @ says. Mr. Klinger’s cantest is that the assigament was made without the euthority or consent ofa majority of the steckhoiders and against their pretest, and that it was net the act of the company.

The Unknown Ripper Told the Story of the Affray te Passengers on the Olive Street Owl Car—The Yeung Fellews Who Were Cut Did Not Kaew It Until Their Assail- ant Had Escaped, Since the publication in yesterday’s Post- DISPATCH of the strange mystery concerning the cutting of Robert Brown and Ernest Giles more has been learned about the trouble which caused it; in fact, all the circumstances are now known, though the identity of the man who did the cutting has not yet been es- tablished. The case is a queer one because of the profound secrecy which was maintained concerning it. It seems that there were spec- tators to the melee, but none of them krew that either Brown or Giles were cut, so they thought of it as only a street fight and sald aothing about it. The two wounded men did not wish to be mixed upin an afiair of the kind, sothey gave fictitious mames at the Dispensary and kept asjient afterwards. If it had not beer for the report made by Dr. Steinmetz to the police nothing further woula have been heard from the. case. Now, how- ever, several eye witnesses have appeared and one ef them had quite a lengthy conver- sation with the maa whe did the stabbing. The 2 o’clock owl car drove up just as the fight was ending, and the late workers and others who use that car, saw the disturbance on the corner. One or two passengers got off to watch the fight, but finding that it was ever they got on the car again. The man whe did the stabbing ram and caught the car and stood on the back platform. A passenger on tne car, who was an eye witness of the affray, said to-day: THE RIPPER. ‘*The man jumped on the platform and took his stand jost in frentofme. He sbook hkim- seif into shape, pulled bis ceat straight, fixed his euffs and began muttering oaths. He was about 5 feet 10 inches nigh and wel! built. He wore a dark overcoat with the collar turned up and had an umbrella in bis hand. I didn’t see his face very well for he had his back to the light, but he wore sandy whiskers, rather short. I paid no particular attention to him until he drew of his left gloveand then I noticed that his hand was bieeding. ** ‘What's the matter?’ I asked, bleeding?’ ‘* *} don’t know! he said, ‘I want to see whether I’m out. Cowardly trick to jamp on a man on the street. I was s fool to tackle both of them, but they were guying me, und I wouldn’t stand that!’ ** ‘Do you know them?’ ** "No, I never saw them before ia my life.’ ** ‘How did it start?’ | ‘**Why,I was standing on the corner waiting for the car and these fellows walked up the other side of the street. One of them shouted out, ‘Ah there, my whiskers,’ and I told them toshutup. Then they came across the street and cursed me, and whenlI resented what they said they jumped on me. But I’ve fixed them; I’ll teach them to jump on a man whois standing on the corner minding his own business.’ Then he began taiking about other things and nothing more was said about the fight except that now and then he would curse the fellows who be said nad attacked him. He said nothing about using a knife aad I had no idea that any one had been cut. ILieft the car at Beaumont street and he was atill on It. Where he got off I don’t know, but I think that Mike ooley, the driver of the owl car, does.’ Mike, who is well known to all the men ia town whe use the late cars, was seen by a detective an@ asked if he could give any in- formation about the identity of the man. He said he could not; that he did mot see him when he get on end therefore he cannot tell which ef his pasrengers it was who was en- gaged in the fight. Another pasecuger said: that fight, but I am surprised to that those fellows were cut. saw the man whose whiskers seem to have caused the trouble strike at Brown and Giles and hit them two or three times. Then he jumped on tue car and I ran for it, too. Brown and Giles did not Know they were cut atthattime, at least I am pretty eure they did not, for when the other man left them they stoed and looked at hbimas if they were glad he was gone, but they said nothing about being hurt and made no out- ory. I feel positive that the man must have gotten away before they found that they were cut. *are you ‘*‘T saw most of learn HIS DE6CRIPTION. **It ought to be easy to find that man.I have seen him arourd town, and lam sure he lives nere. He is rather tall‘and very erect. He is well dressed, wore a Gark overcoat and lighter trousers. He has a full face of blonde whiskers cut short, and his lower teeth are very bac. Hedid the cutting very quietly, and [think it rather to his credit as a cutter that he got away before Krown and Giles knew they were burt.’’ Another peculiar phase of this strange cese is that Capt. Oampbell, in charge of the Fifth Diatriet, bas known ot the cutting since sunday night. Brown's brother taiked to him about it and he has been on the lookout for the man with the blonde whiskers ever since, while Uapt. Young’s detectives have been working labor i- ously in the adjoining district to find out who had been cut. Browar and Giles are both doing well,ana Dr. —— expects them both to recover without delay.

Charies Wilson, an 18-year-old boy is held at the Four Courts for assault with intent to and head. Davoust isnot expected to recover and his ante-mortem statement has been taken. The injured man isa middle-aged tailor who keeps a little shop at 315 North Eleveath street. He sleeps in the place and is well known to the officers in that vicinity. Ac. cordingly when Officer:Riedy saw a light In the shop at 8 o’clock this morning be called Private Watchman Horning and the two started down the street to see what was the matter. As the officers came to the front door the boy Wilson dashed out and ran up the alley teward Twelfth street. AN EXCITING CHASE. Horning fred two shots at tne fugitive which had no effect. Riedy then set out after the fel- low and succeeded in bringing him to halt at the foot of the Grant statue. A pair of Pants wrapped in an old newspaper was feund on the prisoner’s person. The officer supposed that the case was one of burglary and teld Horning te go back and see what had been stelen while he took Wiisor to the station. Horning went te the shop with Officers Little and Bernstorff, who had been called to the scene by the shots. As soon as the lamp had been lighted, they diseovered the tallor Davoust stretched out on the floor by his bed, unconscious and covered with blood. Assoon as possible an ambulance was called and the injured man was forwarded to the Dispensary. An exawm- ination of the shop disciosed a dirk- bladed pocketknife on the floor. The weapon was wet with blood. Onthe bed and on the floor were two pools of blood. The shop was greatly disarranged, clothing being scattered about in the greatest confusion. Atthe Dispensary Davoust was examined by Dr. Steinmetz. His neck and bead on both sides were fearfully siashed. On the left side there was a deep hole which ap- peared as though the blade had been driven in tothe hilt. The patient had lost considerable biood and was quite weak even after he recovered consciousness. At 10 o’clock this morning Dr. Dalton atthe City Hospital was of the opinion that the man could hardly recover and had Coroner Frank take an ante-mortem statement in Wilson’s resence. Davoust said that Wilaon ad left at his eve a pair of pants tobe repaired. e said that the yeung man had bothered him eariier in the night, waking him to askif the garment had been mended. He told Wilson to wait until morning. Wilson came again at about 8 o’clock and made such a fuss that he opened the shop and iet him in. They had some On ana Wiison plunged the knifeinto his neck. WILSON’S #TORY. Wilson tells a somewhat similar story. He insists, however, that Davoust made & sug- gestive proposition, and when he refused struck at him with aclub. Then he pulled out his knife and commenced to cut just as the old tailor was striking the second blow. He says Davoust was drunk atthe time. Wieon is18 years old and came to St. Louis from Georgia only three weeks ago. He is a printer by trade and has been employed at the Rtverside printing office on Third street. He rooms at 11% Locust street. A warrant charging him with assault with in- tent to kill bas been issued. SCHOOL BOARD MEETING. Mr, Koenig Resigus and Mr. Themas T. Gibbons Is Chosen for the Vacancy. The Schoo! Board held an adjourned meet- ing last night and the first thing that came up was the resignation of Mr. Koenig, which was accepted. Mr. Koesig has intended resign- ing fer some time and only remained in the board because he was williag to sacrifice his own cenvenience to the welfare of the schools. The report of the Lands and Leasing Oom- mittee providing for renting a room for the Lowell Kindergarten was accepted. The report of the Building Committee was then submitted. The new bids amounted to $151,476, something more than $12,000 under the former bid, but still $11,000 more than the buildin fund nad to. its account. The Board fimally decided to strike out the Elleardsviile, Arlington No. 5 and Blair Kindergarten proposals, which reduced the expenditure about one-half, and with that correction the report was adopted. The report on the naming of the colored schools fell through, as many had antici- pated. Mr. Jack P. Richardson said that be- fore the report was considered he would like to withdraw the name of Haacock, which Lad been given tothe Ne. 6 School; not because the colored people had objected to it, but be- cause Mr. Louis Picot, the representative of the Hancock family in 8t. Louis, had requested it, as he did not want the mame given to a negro school. The report was then takes up and on account of the complaints which the negroes have made it was decided to let the schools remain as they are, designated by numbers, Under the head of new business the vacancy created Mr. Keenig’s resignation was filled. Mr. Holmes nominated Thomas F. Gibpons. The Aulerites endeavored to ob- struct the election. They wanteda week to find out who Mr. Gibbeus was, and wher that was refused they moved to adjours, but the motion was lest. Mr. MeEna Dom inated Dr. A. C. Rebinsor and the nominations then closed. Messrs. Bartheid, Brady, Bus and Knight were excused from voting as they did not know either candidate. Mr. Gibsons was elected, Messrs. Bannerman ¥, Dozier, Holmes, Kelly, O’Conzor, ! and Sheahan veting for him; Messrs. Auler, Bosley, McEntire, Macklin and Trall voting and he toek the eath of office.

Chicago Crowded With Distinguished Cathe- lic Prelates to Hener the Occasion—A Grand Pageaat—Solema Pentifical High Mass at the Cathedral—The Banquet at the Anditorium—Toerchlight Precessicn To-Night. CuioaGco, Ill., Oct. 29.—The greatest re- ligious celebration and pageant ever held in the Westor perhaps in the whole country, with the exception of the exercises incidental to the bestowal upon Arehbishop Gibbons of the hatand ring ef a Cardinal, commenced here to-day. Twenty-five years ago, on Sat- urday next, a young St. Louis priest was con- secrated at Nashville, Tenn., as Bishop of that diocese. Frteen years later that same priest and Bishop, hav- ing OCs filled that popuiar and im- portant See for that length of time, was raised to the ecclesiastical dignity of Archbishop of Chicage, with an archdiocese which, in material and spiritual importazce, is among the first in the world. The ceiebra- tion which opens to-day, therefore, is in honor ef the silver jabilee of the Most Rev. Patrick Augustus Feehan, and is the result of a spentancous desire not only to recegnize the anniversary of a most important event in the history of the Roman Catholic Church, but as a tribute to the popularity of the Archbishop himself. Never im the history of Chicago has there been such a precession of prelates and priests as wended its way this morning down Chicago avenue tothe Oathedral of the Holy Name. First came the acolytes and cross- bearers, followed by over 500 priests from this and neighboring dioceses. Ail were vested in surplice and cassock. A halt was made AT THE PAROCHIAL RESIDENCE. ) Here the procession was joined M4 Arch- bishop Feehan, Archbishop Ryan of Philadel- phia, Bishops Hennessy of Dubuque, Oathard of Vincennes, Cosgrove of Davenport, Rich- ter of Grand Rapids, Fiasch ef La Crosse, MecUloskey of Louisville, Ryan of Alton, Janisen of Belleville, Spaiding of Peoria, Ponslaper Zeininger, Administrator of the Arch-Diocese of Milwaukee; Vicar-General Gleason of Nashville, Father Kavanagh, Pres- ident of Niagara College; Father Waish, Pres- ident of Notre Dame University and Father Vell of Memphis. The visiting prelates were vested In purple mantelet, surpliceand c sock, and each was accompanied by ° chaplains. Preceding them was a censor- bearer and a boat-bearer. The procession was nearly 1,000 strong and pre- sented a magnificent spectacle, and as it en- tered through the portals of the Oathedral tne greatorgan and an orchestra of thirty-six pieces rendered Meyerbeer’s ‘‘Graad March ef the Prophet.’’ ‘ SOLEMN PONTIFICAL HIGH MASS was then celebrated, the Archbishop himself being the celebrant. Atthbeenad of the mass an aneees sermon was preached by Arch- bishop Ryan of Phiilad “oy The episcopal benediction pronounced Archbishop Fee- han brought the elaborate service to a close, This afternoon the Archbishop was banqueted in the grand hal! of the Auditorium, covers being laid for 400} guests. This was followed 3 a reception in the public parlors of the hotel. Between 30,000 and 35,000 people are expected | ered to participate in the grund torchlight pro- cession to-night. The Foresters alone will ave 1,000 men in line. The procession will be ided into four sections, the frst ing composed of Italians, military lored people and Frenoh; the second of rmans, the third of Poles aad Bohemians ad the fourth of English-speaking oltisens. Behind these will come the organized socie- tles. Every man will carry a terch or lantera and must wear a miniature United States in the buttonhole ef his coat.

Sa Civilization” a Crime ia Russia—A Spy Disgu as a Werkingman SBetrays a “G Society of &tudents—Banished to Siberia ~The Brutal Treatment ef Dr. Dolge- bolov. o New Yorx, Oct. 29.—There arrived in New York from abroad last week a Russian, who until recently was a political exile in Siberia. He was sent there for baving in his possession a copy of ‘‘Buckle’s History of Civilization.’’ He had previously, when astudent, pub- lished a pamphlet which was construed as showing a hostile feeling to the Government. He suffered four years of exile and has been pardoned. He now comes to America to makeit hishome. The nuameof the exile is Dr. Isaac Aaronoyvich. He is cultured and bas a high reputation for legalability in Russia. Besides he is a doctor of medicine. Dr. Aaronovich told his story toa reperter yester- day in French, the language of cultivated Russia. **T shall begin,’’ said the docter, ‘‘by say- Ing that George Kennan has told the truth.

We were not revolution- iste tm any sense. Inspired, bowever, by the love of authorship, I had written a Httle pampbiet = entitied ‘What is Constitutionalism,’ criticising ina youthfal Way some features of the Govern- ment. I had this printed at the office of tne Zz Voho,a Radical paper,tbe printing place of which was secret. There was a reward of 4,000 roubles offered by the police for the lo- cation of the press-rooms of that Liberal organ.

One day he made the propositien that as ag ay | men were get- timg very low wages in St. Petersburg it was to thelr interest that they should strike.

We were dragged to prison and were confined there two weeks on enspicion, the la- dies suffering frightfully.

I orgunized aread- ing class in my village, and WE MET ONCE A WEEK. I was guilty of translating the terrible book colied *‘Buckle’s History of Clivii:zatien.’ To thislewe my exile. it wasin 1881. lhad been married a short time. I was sent to Riberia for an indefinite term. We went from Nijnit-Novgorod to Siberia in a conveyance culled a kilitka. Soldiers accompanied me alithe way. Every torty miles there was a relay of horses and another wagon. I was not allowed to sleep anywhere on the road, bust had to do tne best 1 conid by getting naps in the bottom ofthe wagon. The jolting was frightful. Iat last reached my destina- tion, Yalotorvsk, a smal! village. As I had really committed no very grievous crime I was simply under surveiliance. I was sllowed to do manual labor, but all other work was forbidden me. Thriee a day the police visited me and inquired inthe name of the Uzar re- garding my bealth. We were an interesting community. There was Mr. Machiet, a writer of considerable ability, who tried to tounda Rassian colony in Kansas. His wife has been exiled for an indefinite term. Korolin, alsoa well known writer, was withus. Then there was for a time, Dr. Doilgopoloyv, Kenpan’s friend. He suffered severe punispment. When he was first exiled he was piaced ata email Siberian village, the priest of which was afflicted with a contaract of one eye.

It seems that no inquiry bas ever beer made into the exact quantity ef nickel im the world, Tho disinterested authorities were somewhat abridged on the subject, and the statements made that the metal was scarce, were evidently ac- cepted. The department detailed officers to examine the known nickel mines of the world by operators of nickel mines, in effect with a view to their productiveness. Commo- Gore Folger, Chief Naval Officer, visited the” mine at Sudbury, is Canada, and brought back some speciniens. Lieut. Buckiagham was sent to the mines in Nevada, and officers whe are attached to United States Legations abroad visited sources of NICKEL IN EUROPE. The results of these examinations, as ex- pressed in document reports and shown from specimens gathered at various mires, show that the supply of nickel is not limited, It now appears thatthereis emalier reason for im- mediate action. According to reports all tbe nickel required for the armor plates can be secured at prices proposed by the Govern. ment. It was discevered early that resort to competitive bids would remove the liabjlity of anything like imposition upon the depart- mont and subsequent inquiries into the qual- ity, Quantity amd cost of nickel have demon- strated that nothing short of a combination among the sickel miners would force the price to a greater extortion.

The Waterway Between the Two Oceans Will Be Opened in Four Years. Mr. Max Reber, St. iouls Bey Whe Is Empleyedin the Werk, Keturas Heme’ eon Leave of Absence and Gives an In- teresting Acceunt of What Has Been Dene—The Great Engineering Scheme Which Iste Be Carried Out—Kaising the Lake Level—How the Health ef the Em- ployes Is Leoked After. R. MAX REBER of 8t Louls, who ie a member of the staf of engineers of the Nicaraguan Canal Construction Ce., is at present visiting bis home in this city op leave, having come direct from his work with the construction force now pushing their operations across the marrow strip of Central Americas country dividing the Atiantic from the Pacific Ocean. Mr. Reber was seen at his residence this morning by a PosT-DISFATCH reporter and gave a most interesting review of the progress of the Nicaraguan Canal work, the difficulties encountered and overcome in the gigantic undertaking and the prospects for completion ofa canal which will offer open passage from ocean to ocean for steamers of the heaviest @Graught. Mr. Reberis a young and enthua!l- astic man in his profession of an engineer, and baving been employed all along the line of active operation on the Nicaraug uan Cana! was well qualified to give a most interesting and valuable interview. ONE OF THE ENGINEER STAFF. **T have been on the engineer staff of the Nicarauguan Canal Construction Co. for the last eighteen months,’’ he said, ‘‘and have spent all that time at work on the canal frem its very beginning. As you well Canal Co. Headquarters. know, the concession of the building of the canal was giveao to the Maritime Co., but the actual work is being dene Dy the Nicarauguan | Canal Construction Co., whieh will be in con- trol until the completion of the work, when the enterprise will again be im charge of the Maritime Oo. The work was formally opene@ ist one year ago, the contract stipu- lating that $2,000,000 worth of work should be done on the canal during the first twelve months, the Nicarauguan Canai Construction Co. of course finding the money for carrying @ut their contract. More than this sum has been expended during the past year. PROGRESS FROM THE PORT OF ENTRANCE. ‘*Beginning at Greytown Harbor, which is the Atiantic port of entrance to the canal, the company bas builta breakwater out into the harbor 700 feet, which has changed the cur- rentalong that coast until it tends inward to the canal. In the lagoons formed at the canal entrance two iarrve Hercuies dredges are em- pleyed in deepening and enlarging the en- trance. These dredges, by the way, are part of the Slavin plant used on the Pasama Caral, Siavin being the only American employed in that work. His entire plant was purchased by the Nicaraguan company at a cost of over $1,000,000, and consists of elght dredges, each with a capacity of 265,000 cubic yards of matter per month, four steam tugs, several lighters, and much other machinery necessary in canal construction work. Work- ing from Greytown into the interior, what is known as the eastern division is now at the Divide Cut, about thirteen asd = 6 6a baif miles frem the This cut is the highest eleva- tion reached along the entire route of the Nicaraguan Canal, the elevation being about 404 feet above the sea level, the surface of the water there being 110 feet above the sea level. Through the Divide Cut the rock is being cut 324 eet deep to create the passage way forthecanal. In doing the preliminary work In this cuta diamond drill was used and n careful study of the material supplied by cutting away this roex forma- tion was made with the resuit that the engineers are assured of a plentiful sup- Py of good rockfor breakwater buitdiny, allasting, eto. This material has already been used onthe breakwater at Greytown Harber, in work on the San Juan River and at Ochoa, and in building embahkments and other similar work along the carnal route. TO RAISE A LAKE LEVEL. “"A grand engineering scheme is now being carried out in the building of the Nica- Tauguan Canal through the interior ef the oouatry aiong Luke Nicaraugua by & system of damming the river at Acton, which will have the effect of carring the level! of the lake to within eleven and a half miles ofthe Atlantic coast and about three miles from the Pacific coast. The drop dewn to both coasts will then be made by means of a series of three locks on each. This will be especiaily practicable on the Atlantic coast, where there is very little tide, not over two feet. and the three locks there will be all that is necessary. On the Pacific coast, in addition to the three lecks similar te those on the east, there will also be necessitated a tide lock, similar to that constructed successfully at Sault Ste. Marie. ‘*The company has already completed a raliroad running about ten miles inte the in- terior from Greytown through the swamp lands to the Divide Cut, over which ail material used in the construction work is earried. The railway is built upon a cerdu- roy road bed, mede, as you are aware, by building on foundations of feiled logs laid cresewise along a route previously cleared by the advance guard of iaborere that aiways gees ahead of the construction work The country the interior Greytown Divide one vast where laye about deep. rowth of tropical vegetation and wiid ry is most dense, and the work of clearing the route ahead of the construction gangs is most arducusin consequence.

Besides the permanent hospital at Greyton, ‘emergescy hospitais’ are put up at every point along the line. The great danger to heaith is, of course, the swamp fever common to all trepical coasts. OCortrary to common belief, this fever can be easily cured provided it is taken in hand at the very start. If it is ever allowed to fasten uporm & man, that man’s bealth is broken as long as he remains in that climate, if he recovers atall from the fever. As s00n as x1 workman complains in the least, he is taken into the ‘emergency hospital’ atonce and put under treatment. The man himself has no option In the matter, it is the company taking care of its working material, and leaving out the humanitarian aspect of the question, it is a most excel- lent plan from a practical business point of view.

There is no dry and wetseason. It rains twelve months outofthe year at Nicaragua, and steadily atthat. This does not interfere with the werk inthe least. The rain isa peculiarly warm one, so nearly the temperature of the human skin that it produces po chill whatever, nor isthere any danger of coldsfrom remaining wet all day or night.

Every wariety of tropical! lux- uriant growth and of the rarest tropical in- sect iife is found in the country where the work is being done. Many of the members of the engineer staff are enthusiastic students of both,and some extremely valuable collections have been made. The iife altogether is far from unpleasant.

WHY THE COLORED BOY SHOULD WIN THE COMING CONTEST. Review of the Two Greatest Bantams tu the Werld—Ten Best Tennis Piayers eof America—Breeklyna and Louisville a Tie in the World’s Champicnuship—REacing and Sporting News Generally. > T now appears pretty certain that Oal Mo- Carthy and George Dix- on, the celored wonder, willagain come together and decide the Ii1il4- pound bantam-.weight championship of the world. When these two met before the coa- test was deciared a draw after seventy rounds had been fought. The McCarthy party were the mere anxious for the draw and the little New Jersey man toward the end of the contest appeared to be only trying to save his backers’ money. Dixon offered to fight him a few weeks iater with skin gioves for $5,000 a side, but MeCarthy would He did not seem anxious general opinion that if the fight was not drawn Dixon would have eventually wer, theugh both were badly exhausted and hu- manity demande@ that , hostilities skould cease. McCarthy yesterday signed arti- cles, however, to fight Dixen befere the Puritan Athietic Club of Long Island, which has offered a purse of $2,000 fora ge between them. Dixon will undoubtedly siga also, al- though there has been a disagreement be- tween them as to the time of weighing in. McCarthy wants te weigh in ten Hipurs before the fight. The colored boy is right in bis demand. In fact, there should never be any chance for difference ae to the time of weighing in, for it should be made rule by all clubs thatthe men should weigh just before entering the ring, as amar in training by eating a big meal and taxing a good sieep can gain several peunds. It is said some men can gain as high as seven oreight pounds in this way. bus aman who weighs 114 pounds ten hours before a figh tmight by eatinga hearty meal and taking a good sleep enter the ring weighing 120 pounds. Thus while supposediy fighting at 114 pounds hereally weighs six pourds heavier, which gives bim a big ad- Vantage over his adversary providing the latter enters the ring weighing only the limit, 114 pounds. This is certainiy not fair nor just. The men should weigh just before enter- ing the ring and then they would have to fight at the regulation weight and neither would bave any advantage of the other. Siace fighting McCarthy Dixon has had some valuable ring experience and as he has not been seriously injured in any of bis batties he should bea better nian snow than when they fought before. He is younger thaa McCarthy, being only 19 years of age, and in MoCarthy had a great advamtage overhim in the matter of ring experience. This advantage will not be neariy #0 greatin their next set-to, owing 40 Dix- on’s jater Oghts, and if be was as good a wan as McCarthy before he should be a better one now. Then auother year inage is an advan- tage te a boy of his youth, sothat things look very favorable to Dixon in the coming match. The colered iad has beema great ring tacti- clan, while McCarthy has always been noted as one of the greatest generais that ever entered the squared circie. Dixon’s easy defeat of Nunc Wallace, the English chainpion, whom he settled in very short order, and his late victory over Johnny Mur- phy show conciusively that McCarthy is the only man of his weivht who stands any show of defeating him. McCarthy is still the 114 pound champion, never having lost the title, and while he may be the favorite in the bet- ting in the coming contest, it certainly looks to an unprejudiced mind that, great fighter as the Jerseyman is, he is apt to have his colors lewered this time by the coffee- colored youth from Boston. MoCarthy whipped Johnny Murphy im four rounds, but the latter broke one arm im the first rousad and head todo ail his fighting with one hand. Despite this fact he gave McCarthy a des- perate hattie for four rounds and many thought he would have won but for the mis- bap he met with atthe outsetof the coatest. It took Dixen a lenger time to whip Murphy but he had far the betterof the contest¥rom the outset. Murphy also broke a finger in the first round of this fight, but he used theo in- jured hand neverthciess, although it must have pained him seriously to do so, and thus have handicapped him. McCarthy. aise in- jured his hand in hie Gght with Dixon and thus lessened his chances for victory. Dixon bas shown himself to be a wonderfvi fighter, and there is just one point against him. That is hie color. Negro pugilists have the reputa- tiom of being quitters when a fight is going against them and they are given severe pun- ishment. Dixorg bas never beer severely pun- ished, and his courage has yet to be tested. Many men refuse to believe that any col- ored man is thoroughiy game. If Me- Carthy ts able to punish Dixon severely for several rounds, so that the Boston bey comes up each time expecting to have to un- dergo etill greater torture the next round, Dixen’s courage may xive outand he may guit. He may, on the ether hand, prove an exception tothe rule of colored pugilists and take bis medicine like a man. It is extremely doubtful, too, whether McCarthy can punish him that badly, fer the colvred boyis teo clever. As both little fellows are scienced and great ring generais the battie should be a great one, with chauces in faver of Dixon winning. Nashville Race Meeting.

The catcher’s chest-protector, or the **sheepskin,’*’ as itis eften contemptuously referred to, in neither neatmor gaudy, but, like atrick mule ina kicking match, it gets there justthe same, says the Oincianati En- quirer. This most ugefal piece of base bal! pharaphernalia kad a hard time getting a foethboid, The catchers were siow in adopt- ing it, andthe spectators at first guyed 4 as og Bem k Clements, the great catcher of the Philadelphia League team, was the first to wear a cateher’s protector im a game before a Cinciasati crowd. He was them back-stoppiag Jersey Bakely with the Keystone Unicas of Philadelphia, in 1884. Censiderable fun was made of the protector, and the writer distinctly remembers that it wus made the subject of adverse newspaper comment by one ef the best base ball author!i- ties im America. Now it is different. A catcher’s protecter is of as much importance to a back-stop as are his mask or gleves. in other days a visitor to the dressing-room ofa ball team when the players were getting ready for a game did sot need te ask who were the catchers. He could tell them by the black and biue spots that appeared on Various parts of their anatomy, the result of hard thumps from uasruly foul tips. The pro- tector, mask, asd padded gloves has made the life of a catcher a bed of roses to what it used te be. A Deubtful Recerd, Harry Stovey aad Tom Brewn of the Bos- ton Brotherhood, hada trial at base-ruaning in Boston the ether day, says am exchange. One of the pair made an alleged reoord of 142-58. for a complete circuit of the bases. Without Intending to refiect on the integrity of the time-keepers and other officials in charge ef the trial, it is dollars to buttons that nme such recerd was made. Neither Stovey nor Tom Hrown, nor any other Dali- piayerin the countey, with the pessible ex- ception of Billy Sunday or Hamilton,can do it in such time. The exact measurement from the home plate areund the bases and back te the starting point is 120 yards. In runniog the bases a straight line can not be followed. The best kind of an experienced runmer will lose about five yards at each turn. There are three turns and lb yards added to 120 yards makes 135 yards. Now does any one pretend to say that either Tom Brown er Harry Stevey can do 155 yards in 142-5sedodndsand eoirele while they are doing it? Notmuch. It is safe to gamble that neithor one of them can do 135 yards on a straight-away runonagood ciasder path in such atime. It is nearly ‘‘even time,’’ and even time runners now-a-days are as scarce as hen’s teeth. ~With a good, experienced time keeper, who would not unwittiagly give the runners the best of the watch, it weuld be safe te gambie that seventeen secoods was nearer Stovey or Krown’s record. One hun- dred and thirty-five yards in 14 25 seconds! Whew! what a whopper! It would take a Bethune or a Hutchins to doit. Ned Hanloa True Blue. At New Yorkafew days agoat a meeting . of base ball club owners Al Johnson told the circumstances under which he became finaa- cially interested in base ball. He said he lost money right straight along and that the backers ef the Cleveland Players’ League Club are standing theirlosses like men. He also took occasion to say: .“*You can talk of the loyalty of Ward, Ewing, Keefe and others, but give me Ned Hanlon above the whole crowd. He stands to-day as the here of the Players’ League. He isthe only ball playerin that league who held to the contract he signed. ‘*Nota penny has he received for his work this season, although he has piayed better ball tham ever before. He has played om from week to week without murmur, never telling asoul but .thathe was receiviag his salary. He bas met every assessment on his stock also, as have four other players.’’ The Best Tennis Piayers. With the ciese of the annual fall tennis teurnament ef the Longwood Cricket Club during the coming week the lawn tennis sea- son of 1890 may be said ta have come to an end. la this country an attempt has been made to Classify the best players nuwerically, and it is presumed that such a mode of classification will be carried out for this seasen at least, though in England the best men are classified in groups, and seemingiy in a more satis- factory manner than is in vogue here. Possi- Diy next svason an attempt will be mae to do away with the present American classifica. tien and adopt the English mode,as the tatter is favored by the most eminent experts in the United States. The feliowing ciasification on sea- son's work, under tne old method, is proba- bly as good as any: First, O. 8&8 Campbell, Columbia College, winner of the champion- eae at Newport, and the Southampton, abant and Narragansett Pier tournaments; secoad, kh. P. Huntington, Jr., Yale College, winner of the Westchester and other tourna- ments, and the most formidable opponent ef Champion Oampbeli; third,F. F.

At Nahant be beat P. 8. Sears, Hugh Taliant and F. &. Manefield, At New- custie he was defeated by G. W.

The fourth man is W. P. Kaapp, ex-inter- collegiate champion, and the only man who ever defeated the retired champios, R. D. Sears, In an important match in this country; fifth, P. 8.

G. all, ome of the champions in double; eighth, 0. A. Chase, champier of the West, defeated Kaapp at Newport; niath, J. 8. Philadelphia; tenth, F. 8. Mansfield. It seems unfair te classify ex-Champion Slo- cum at all, as be prepared for one tourna- ment enly, amd that was in defense of his champienship. If classified at all, he should not drop below second place, though mea cla ssified below second have beaten him. Spertizng Netes.
