PRICE, BY CARRIER, FIFTEEN CENTS A WEEK. NIHILISTS AT WORK. A RUSSIAN PRINCE IN PARIS COMPELLED 10 CHANGE HIS RESIDENCE. The Affair Causing Much Excitement in the French Capital. RESPONSE TO BALFOUR’S APPEAL FOR THE STARVING IRISH PEASANTRY. Russia to Establish a Secret Service Agency in New York—The Irish Party Troubles—A Revolutionary Outbreak in the Argentine Republic—The Railway Strike in Scotland—Foreign News, PARIS, Jan. 16.—A most mysterious disap- pearance isthe talk of Paris this morning. Prince Giedroyc, a well known member of the aristocratic circles of the Russian colony in this city, has disappeared from his mansion in the Rue Gallilee.. To make his disappear- ance all the more astonishing the furniture of the mansion was, apparently, transferred to parts unknown during the night. It is be- lieved that Russian Nihilists have threatened to blow up the Prince’s residence with dyna- mite and that the threat, contained in mys- terious notes sent to the Prince, caused the latter so much alarm that he decided to dis- appear and locate himself in some place where theNihilists would not be able to annoy him. PROTEST AGAINT INCREASED DUTIES, PARIS, Jan. 16.—The workmen of Lyons and other cities and towns in the Squthern part of France have made arrangements to hold mass meetings on Sunday next to pro- test against an increasein the customs duties. A petition, which has been circulated in favor of the free admission of raw materials, has received 120,000 signaturés. THE COMTE DE PARIS AND AFRICA. PARIS, Jan. 16.—The Lisbon correspondent of the Siecle reports that the Portuguese Gov- ernment has granted to the Marquis de Beau- vor, acting as the agent of the Comte de Paris, a charge giving him control] over all territory claimed by Portugalin East Africa which has not already been granted to the Mozambique Co. The Irish Party Troubles. LONDON, Jan. 16.—Mr. Timothy D. Healy, M.P., has telegraphed tothe Pall Mall Gazette, denying that Mr. Wm. O’Brien or M. Raffalo- vitch, Mr. O’Brien’s father-in-law, or M. Raffalovitch’s family, received Mr. Barry or himself in an uncordial manner while they were in Paris. Mr. Healy said that Mr. ©O’Brien’s relations are not Parnellites or sympathizers with Parnellism. Mr. Healy adds that Mr. Barry and himself were warmly welcomed, and that ‘‘Mr. O’Brien Is as de- termined an opponent of Mr. Parnell’s leader- ship as lam.’’ The Pall Mal Gazette quoted Mr. Parnell’s Statement made on Sunday last while ad- dressing the meeting at Limerick that he is practically satisfied with the ‘length he has traveled with Mr. O’Brien, amd ‘says that the conflicting accounts ofthe Boulogne confer- ence furnished by Messrs. Parnell] and Healy, both claiming Mr. O’Brien, .are_ surprising, The Gazedte says: ‘‘The English Liberals are impatient, and deprecate shilly-shallying. Mr. O’Brien is doing all hecan to destroy English Liberal confidence, and is himself the greatest obstacle to a successful issue of home rule.’’ HARCOURT TALKS. Sir Wm. Vernon Harcourt writes: ‘‘If the Irish people and the Irish members of Parlia- ment continue to maintain towards the En- glish Liberals the attitude of friendly co- operation, consultation, mutual good will, and honorable confidence which existed be- fore Mr. Parnell fell there is no reason why they should not, with entire respect for each other’s independence, work together as hith- erto for the same objects and with a spirit of equal assurance of ultimate success. If their position towards us remains the same, our position towards themis unchanged. Then, confident as ever that the future of home rule is secure, nothing will happen. There are worse prospects if Mr. Parnell succeeds in inflaming Irish pas- sion and sentiment against English sympathizers and persists in poisoning the Irish mind, vilifying Mr. Gladstone, exciting race hatred, rejecting constitutional action and appealing to the Hillside men and the American dynamiters, thus convincing the British people that no reliance can be placed in Irish honor; that confidenee is violated under cover of personal delinquencies and that in settling the home rule question the English Liberals cannot, participate in the safeguards which surround it, but that the matter must be determined simply by the Irish leaders. The demands for separation mean hostility to England and not an honor- able alliance. Ifthe Irish people ratify such a@ policy, home rule has no chance and ought to have no chance.’’ THE M’CARTHY-GLADSTONE INTERVIEW. Mr. John Redmond having written for the press statements attempting to show that . Justin McCarthy in his published communi- cation about interviews with. Mr. Gladstone, is in error as to dates Mr, McCarthy rejoins with the published stateMent that he had an interview at Mr. Parnell’s desire with Mr. Gladstone on the day before the Parnell man- ifesto was issued as well as afterwards. PROTECTING ANTI-PARNELLITES. Owing tothe comparative cessation of the Parnellite excitement, the police in Cork find it no longer necessary to keepa guard for protection over the premises of leading anti- Parnellites, although the members vuf the force remain under special instructions to protect such persons from violence. The Starving Irish Peasantry. Lonpon, Jan. 16.—While Mr. Balfour is gathering in donations forthe benefit of the starving Irish peasantry an earnest effort is being made in England to raise money for the relief of landlords and thetr families de- prived of income by the agrarian agitation. It is estimated that about 2,000 women, many of them old and infirm, have been deprived of their means of livelihood by the loss of Irish rents. Hundreds of these are earning a living in household service, and as ladies’ maids in the homes of the more fortunate aristocracy, while the more helpless are en- tirely dependent on charity. The former mistress of a large estate in Galway is now @ governess in London, and quite a number Drought up in luxury are doing menial work. The Marquis of Waterford has issned an ap- peal in their behalf, and it is receiving a liberal response. A BIG HUNTING TRIP. DUBLIN, Jan. 16.—There ig an elaborate programme of hunting and shooting ar- ranged by Lord Londonderry for thé Earl of Zetland and Chief Secretary Balfour during their visit to his estates at Mount Stewart. The festivities presenta marked contrast to the wretchedness in most localities of Ireland. The British North American Colonies. OTTaWa, Ontario. Jan, 16.—A member of the Cabinet states that the British Government was being approached with a view tothe the British North Amer- federation com- of existing treaties. The proposal em- braces the suggestion that Great Britain shall sebagg Canada the hegemony of her British American colonies exclusive of New- foundiand, thus transferring or centralizing the general management and direction of public affairs to Ottawa, in place of the Colonial office in London having to deal di- a ad with each colony. MR..BLAINE’S REQUEST. OTTAWA, Jan. 16.—It is announced on the Mr. Blaine has made overtures to the Domin- fon Government with a view to the establish- ment of closer trade relations between Can- ada and the United Stafes. While no inform- ation is forthcoming as tothe nature of the propositions, it is learned that the Dominion authorities have asked the Imperial Govern- ment to take action in the matter. ANOTHER STATEMENT. ‘* TORONTO, Ontario, Jan. 16.—The Empire, the Government organ, says: ‘‘The statement published by the Toronto Mail, to the effect that the Dominion Government has been re- quested by the Imperial Government to en- deavor to arrange matters in dispute be- tween Canada and the United States on the basis of a wide measure of commercial recip- rocity, is not true. On the contrary, it is learned from the very best sources that the Canadian Government has recently been ap- proached by the United States Government with a viewtothe development of the trade relations between the two countries, and that the Canadian Government has requested the advice of Her Majesty’s Government on the subject.’’ ATTEMPTED MURDER AND SUICIDE. GODRICH, Ont., Jan. 16.—Donald McKinnon, a well-to-do fisherman, and his wife, Rachel, were found in their house here yesterday suf- fering from what the doctors allege to be mortal bullet ‘wounds. Their depositions were taken and differ widely. McKinnon states that both attempted to commit suicide, and Mrs. McKinnon states that her husband inflicted the wounds while attempting, im a jealous rage, to murder her. A Terrible Gas Explosion. LONDON, Jan. 16.—A terrible explosion, of illuminating gas in the Liverpool road to-day caused a house crowded with lodgers to catch fire. A panic among the residents followed, during the course of which a man and a boy jumped from the upper windows, thirty feet from the ground, into the street below. They were taken to a neighboring hospital in a dying condition. One child is known to have been burned to death during the conflagration which §fol- lowed the explosion, and other children are reported to the police as missing. Minister Lincoln’s Return. Lonpon, Jan. 16.—Mr. Lincoln arrived at the railway station in this city at 10 o’clock this morning from Southampton. The mem- bers of the American legation were awaiting him, and when he descended from the rail- way Carriage, he was given a warm welcome. A number of newspaper representatives sought to interview Mr. Lincoln in regard to the Behring Sea question. but he again re- fused to say anything bearing upon the topic. Revolutionary Outbreak in Argentine. BUENOS AYRES, Jan. 16.—A large rebel force is said to be assembled in the Province of Entre Rios. The citizens of that Province are ina state of considerable alarm. The tele- } graph lines have been cut and the national troops in strong force have been sent to sup- press the revolutionary outbreak. The wild- est rumors are circulated. Entre Rios (Be- tween-the. Rivers) is a province of the Argen- tine Republic between the Rivers Uruguay and Parenha. Its capital is Bajada de Santafe, having a population of about 150,000. FINANCIAL CIRCLES EXCITED. BUENOS AYRES, Jan. 16.—Financial circles in the Argentine Republic are excited by the proposal made Dy the Argentine Government to tax the deposits of private banks at the rate of 2 percent per annum. The American Legation has lodged a protest against the Government’s proposal to tax foreign in- surance companies at the rate of $20,000 a year for a license fee, in addition to requiring a guarantee deposit of $200,000. The Flahive Murder. DUBLIN, Jan. 16.—It is reported that Bar- tholomew Sullivan, under sentence of death forthe murder of Patrick Flahive, at. Bal- lohogue, in County Kerry, has made a con- fession implicating others in thecrime. At the time Flahive was killed he was preparing tocut the crops onan ‘‘evicted farm,’’ and the motive of the murderers is understood to have been to prevent this, Flahive having failed to yield toany other form of intimida- tion. The Alleged Padlewski. MADRID, Jan. 16.—The man arrested at Clot has not yet been identified. He is a man of many accomplishments and is especially learned in languages, mathematics and chemistry. Heis alsoa fine marksman, and to amuse his guards yesterday he tried his skill with a revolver on a number of sparrows flying around tlre vicinity of his prison. He succeeded in killing three of the birds with four shots. Outranks All Foreign Princes. SHANGHAI, Jan. 16.—It is stated that in con- sequence of the refusal of the Viceroy to ac- cord a state reception tothe Czarewitch the latter has decided nottovisitthis city. The Viceroy bases his refusal to extend this kcourtesy to the Czarewitch onthe ground that the vice regal representative of the Em- peror of China outranks all foreign princes, Russia’s Foreign Secret Service. St. PETERSBURG, Jan. 16.—The Russian Government, in reorganizing its foretgn se- cret service, will hereafter have a direct agency in New York. Heretofore the work of the Russian secret service in America has been done through American detective agen- cies, whose members have been employed to keep a watch on Nihilists and other political refugees. Jewish Schools in Austria. VIENNA, Jan. 16.—The Government has con- sented that the schools to be founded in Aus- trian Poland by Baron Hirsch at a costof half a million pounds, shall be chiefly under Jewish control.

LOUIS MEMBERS DISSATISFIED. The committee assignments do not give en- tire satisfaction; in fact thereis not a little dissatisfaction in the capital city to-day. St. Louis, which pays fully one-third of the taxes of the State, has no place whatever on the Appropriations Committee, though it Is composed of eight or nine members. The leading city of the State will, there- fore, have but little voice in the distribution of the funds which will be made by this committee. Kansas City was more fortunate, as Lyman, the Chairman, is from that place. The only chairmanship given St. Louis is, that of the Insurance Committee, which was given to Mr. Church, Perkinson, the Chairman of the Committee on Municipal Corporations, isa Chariton County farmer. The task of making forty-five committees with a house number- ing 140 members is no easy one, however, and there is always more or less dissatisfac- tion expressed when the committees are an- nounced. Speaker Tuttle explained before the committees were read that he had sought to do the best he could. There were some forty bills introduced, most of which are of minor importance. Im- mediately after the adjournment the various committees met to discuss the work ahead of them. Some of them will go to work immedli- ately on the bills that have passed the second reading. The forty-five committees will have a force of sixteen clerks, the House having refused to allow each a clerk. One ofthe most. important committees in the list is that Walsh, Luis, Dalton, Thomas, Hynes, |} on Senatorial and Congressional Districts. This committee willl redistrict the con- gressional, senatorial and representative dis- tricts of the State. The House adjourned over till Monday afternoon at 2 o’clock. THE SENATE. The Senate was in session until noon to- day and put in most of the time in executive session, considering some twenty appoint- ments made by the Governor since the ad- journment of the last Assembly. In all bat one or two instances the appointees have been in office but the law be submitted Dr..C. B. Simcoe of Callaway was ap physician of the penitentiary, vice Dr. Lewel- lyn deceased, and Dr. J.

THE OFFICE OF BANK EXAMINER. Senator Cochran’ to create the office of Bank Examiner is si in many respects to the act defea by the Assembly two ycars ago. The act specifies that the Examiner shall bear the same relation te the State banks that the National Bank Examiners do to banks of that character, Speaking of the bill Senator Cochran said: . ‘‘This is a measure that should certainly be passed, Ina couple of Counties in Northwest Missouri the farmers have lost over $100,000 during the past Pee years by the collapse of rotten banks. Afi examiner with a thorough knowledge of. the bankine business and one who could get over the State could prevent to aconsiderable extent loss of money by people who can least °° SHAKING UP THE MONEY-LENDERS.

Senator Espenschied proposes to make the point in urging its ge that the. money lenders should be pla on the same level as other creditors and that no law for their especial protection should be tolerated. THE CAPITAL REMOVAL. As usual during the sitting of the Legisla- ture, there is more or léss talk of submit- ting a constitutional amendment for the removal of the Capital. There are quite anumber of Senators and Representatives who are not particularly infatuated with the scenery of Jefferson City, and the hill climb- ing exercise necessary in getting around here is not entirely agreeable. They are will- ing to support a movement for the removal of the Capital, but it would be difficult for them to agre® upon a _ _\location. Sedalia would be stron backed, likewise Boonville, Moberly Fayette. Senator Burks says -ff the ever Jeft to him him he will insist on . ting it in St. Louis. It. is»hardly possible that any organized movement will be made to take it away from Jefferson City this session. FARMERS’ INSTITUTE AND DAIRYMEN. The meeting of the Farmers’ Institute and State Dairymen’s Association last night was largely attended, mostof the farmer mem- bers of the Assembly being interested specta- tors. Interesting addresses were made by Prof. Nipher of Washington Unfversity, and J. R. Irwin -of Callaway County, who ran for Congress against **Sil- ver Dick’’ Bland last November. Prof. Nipher confined his remarks to the weather service of theState and the neces- sity of increasing its efficiency. A thorough State weather service, he argued would be of almost incalculable benefit to the farmers in the State. THE BEHRING SEA TROUBLE. Hon, David Millis of Toronto on the Court Proceedings. TORONTO, Ontario. Jan. 16.—Hon. David Mills, a high authority on international law, in an interview regarding Sir John Thomp- son’s action in bringing a portion of the Beh- ring Sea question befpre the Supreme Court of the United States, said: ‘*Uniless it Has been agreed between the two Governments that there shall be a test case for the purpose of ascertaining the ex- tent of the United States’ rights under the law of nations in Behring Sea, I think it will prove a mistake on the part of the Can- adian Minister of Justice to seek a decision from the Supreme Court. The case of Foster against Neflson, which will be found in Peters’ reports, 2, and that of Phil- lips against Payne, in vol. 92 of the Supreme Court Reports, show thatin questions such as this the Courtis bound to follow in the construction of treaties the political depart- ment of the Government and no opinion will be obtained, therefore, at variance with Mr. Blaine’s contention, It will be seen upon very slight consideration of the subject that it will never do to permit one department of the Government to place itself in direct an- tagonism to another ands especially would it be destructive to permit the views of that .department which is responsible for the maintenance of the sov ereign rights of the nation, to be overriden by another department to which no such re- sponsibility attaches. You wilijfind that the principle upon which the Supreme Court pro- ceeds,so fully Stated in the twocasesjtojwhich I have referred, that you will see that the minister of justice cannot get on the lines upon which he has set out, and if the court were to entertain the case, he would only succeed in having the: contention of the Sec- retary of State confirmed.’’ THE ENGLISH PRESS. LONDON, Jan. 16.-—The Post in an editorial this morning, on the Behring Sea question, says: ‘It is diMcult to avoid feeling that un- less Mr. Blaine was conscious of weakness he would show more alacrity in assenting to arbitration. It was with no discourtesy to American statesmen that @ decision in the case was sought in the Supreme Court.’’ GUILTY OF IMPRUDENCE. The Charges Against Rev. J. T. Riley of Pittsburg Sustained.

ER tas ORES 9 Dr. J.P. Bryson Makes an cities With Koch’s Lymph. THE FIRST USE OF THE REMEDY IN THIS CITY. Local Surgical Cage—The Process and the Lymph Minutely Described—The Patient Improwing anda Fourth Injec- tion Made To-Day. Dr. J. P. Bryson of this city has within the past ten days received from New York a sup- ply of the Kech curative lymph sufficient for the treatment of one case now under his charge, and has begun that treatment with expectations of defin- ite good results in which he is peculiarly interested. Owing tothe nature of the case anda certain. natural reluctance on the part of Dr. Bryson to give tothe public that feature of the experiment, he has been inclined so far to conduct it as a matter of private professional practice and has not felt at liberty to discuss the use of the lymph for pablication. Through the profound gen- eral interest taken in experiments with the Koch lymph, however, the fact of his being in possession of some of that world-famous consumption remedy has become known, and Dr. Bryson has in consequence been besieged to give to t ne, pane the results of. the first experiment de in St. Louls with the great discovery. Toa Post-DIsPaATcH reporter this morning, who represented to him that in view of the fact of his experti- ments having become public property toa considerable extent, an official report from him could not be a violation of professional ethics or of private confidence, Dr. Bryson consented to make such a report In full, with- holding from the public only the name of the patient and the technical description of the case in which the lymph is being used. Cov- ering, as the report does, the detailed story of how the lymph was obtained a descriptive of its appearance, a minute state- ment of its final preparation and the exact method of making the injections, closing with his professional minutes of the effects and results achieved bythe treatment so far, and the developments following each injection, Dr. Bryson’s. interview was a most important one, and will be read with the greatest interest. THE SUPPLY OF LYMPH. The supply of Koch lymph received by him in the physiological ‘laboratory Louis Medical College in the possession of Dr. Porter who has charge of that department in the college, to whom the preparation was delivered by Dr.. Bryson in accordance with an ageement made by the latter before he could secure the lymph. Dr. Porter has charge of its final preparation for use, which is done in strict conformity with instructions received from the -prom- inent New York physicians, whose names Dr. Bryson stipulated should not be published. After showing the reporter the letters from them vouching for the absolute genuineness of the preparation aa sent to St. Louls. This secrecy is observed, by reason of the fact that the St. Louis instance is the first where the lymph has been allowed to be used outside of official hospital practice, and only through the pecullar circumstances surrounding the case was it made possible to gain the consent of the New York physicians to tts being so used. The lymph was received in 8t. Louls two weeks ago yesterday. It came In a small giass phial, securely packed in cotton ina small box, and was delivered by Dr. Bryson to Dr. Porter. A description of the famous remedy, as prepared forthe St. Louts experiment, is as follows: The quantity of lymph contained in the phial was thirty milliigrammes, diluted in boiled water, in the proportion of the equivalent of one dissi- gramme of water to one milligramme of the lymph. The dilution given above naturally. destroyed the characteristic golden brown color of the pure lymph, and it is described as being of about the specific gravity of water, almost transparent, strongly resembling thin glycerine in consistency and with a smell of saliva noticeable in handling the prepara- tion. The case upon which the St. Lonis expert- ments are being made may be generally de- scribed as not one of tuberculosis, but is what is technically termed a ‘‘localized surgical disease.’’ It is of a serious nature and should the experiments with the lymph be marked by lasting good results Dr. Bryson will have opend up afield for its application vastly greater than that even of tuberculosis proper, and of tre- mendous benefit to the whole world. So far, there isno result obtained which offers any encouragement toa continuance of the ex- periments. TREATMENT OF THE CASE. The first hypodermic injection of the Koch lymph by Dr.Bryson was made on Jan. 9,at 10 o’clocKk p.m. The amount injected consisted of one milligram of lymph still further diluted in boiled water enough to make the injection equal one cubic centime- ter of water. The syringe used was not the Koch syringe, which is condemned by New York physicians, but a sterilized rubber syringe with no packing, which had been kept in absolute alcohol and so completely disinfected. The injection was made in the back, exactly between the shoulder-biades, as is done inthe Koch experiments in Berlin for tubercular consumption... Of the results following this first injection, Dr. Bryson says: ‘*There was no febrile reaction noticeable, such as has been reported in application of the lymph for tuberculosis, There was, how- ever,a slight, a very slight local reaction, showing that the seat of the disease had been ) reached by the lymph. This reaction was so faint that it was not regarded as of especial importance, and the experiments proceeded with the hope of more decisive and definite results.’’ On Jan. 11 the injection was made at the same hour as the first. This time the quantity of lymph was increased to two miill- grammes, the proportion of water’ still being the same. A more decided local reaction was caused by this injec- tion, the disease being plainly affected and disturbed in its character by the in tion of the lymph intothe organism. was still, however, an absence of the fe reaction which is ‘the indisputable proof of the effect of the lymph in cases of tubercu- losis. THE FIRST MARKED EFFRCTS, * The third and last injection of the lymph to. date was made on Jan. 14 at 10 o’clock DP. of the pure lymph at RT wee milll. | grammes, stil with the proportion of water equalling one cubic centimeter, and the most St o'cick 8. i; Wa pene est study of the patient’s general condition during the week in which the expertments have been progressing, has also shown a pronounced improvement, consist- ing of a general better tone, or lessening of the malignant features, a gain of strength and certain other changes that point to an undeniable permanent good effect. The case being treated isone of such a grave nature that these results at the very opening of the experiments with the Kock lymph ex- ceed what had been hoped by Dr. Bryson in his most sanguine moments, and had the deepest interest to the further progress of the lymph treatment. A FOURTH INJECTION TO-DAY. ‘*We wilt make the fourth injection this af- ternoon,’’ said Dr. Bryson, after thus fully covering the case to date, ‘‘and with the same quantity of - lymph as used at the third, we expect to carry it still further along the favorable line it has taken so far. I shall continue the injections at intervals as already established, until the present supply of lymph is exhausted, by which time I think tho difficulty of obtaining afurther supply will have disappeared. I expect the course of treatment with the Koch lymph to continue some months. A positive cure of the disease upon which I am experi- menting isa matter of at least months, but I shall be satisfied if the lymph continues to reach and affect the seat of the disease as it is now doing. The lymph, which I received through the kindness of a New York physi- clan who isa personal friend of mine, comes to me diluted in water in the proportion of 1 to 9, with full instructions as to its further preparation for final use, which I have already explained to you. KOCH’S STATEMENT OF LYMPH INGREDIENTS. ‘*There is no question of its genuineness. The Post-DIsPpaTcH yesterday afternoon gave the first authoritative statement from Prof. Koch confirming the general professional be- lief that the lymph ingredient was derived from the ptomaines of tubercular bacilli, and the press of this country has been of incal- culable benefit to the medical profession in giving prompt and full reports of the Koch discovery and experiments from the very beginning of the movement. I have already explained to you my reasons for withholding the local experiment with the Koch lymph from the press until the present time.’’ GROVER CLEVELAND’S DANGER. Strange Actions of a Crazy Man Near the Ex-President’s House. NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—A rumor that an at- tempt had been made to assassinate Grover Cleveland spread overthe lower part of the city yesterday afternoon, together with the statement that the would-be assassin had been arrested and sent to the Bellevue Hos- pital for examination as to his sanity. It appears that on Wednesday after- noon a citizen was walking up Madison avenue when he saw a man acting in an unusual manner in front of Mr. Cleveland’s house. It was not far from 4 o’clock and the citizen called the attention of Policeman Gannon tothe matter. Gannon walked around that way and then the man, seeing a policeman, started down the avenue. The officer followed him through Sixty-sixth street to Fifth avenue. Here the man turned tothe north and crossed over toward the wall of Central Park. Half way across he unbuttoned his overcoat and then his coat and waistcoat. By the time he had donethat he had reached the wall and then he began removing his outer clothing, which he threw on the sidewalk. There was a party of some kind in a. house directly opposite and the policeman thought the dis- robing had better be stopped quickly, but before he could reach the man all the clothes were on the sidewalk and one trousers sus- pender had been unbuttoned. This conver- sation, according to Gannon, then followed: ‘*Here, that’s gohe far enough,’’ said Gan- non.’’ ‘*‘What are you doing?’’ ‘*‘T was just taking off my clothes sol could go into the park and get some fresh air,’’ said the man in a matter of fact way. ‘*‘Where did you come from?’’ ‘*Whitestone.’’ ‘*Get into your clothes. for, anyhow?’’ ‘‘I’m just looking for some friends of mine.’’ ‘*Have you got any friends around here?’’ ‘*I was trying to see a friend of mine around in Madison avenue.’’ **Who ts your friend?’’ ‘‘Why, don’t you know? He’s at No. 186. It’s Grover Cleveland; but don’t say anything about it; there, don’t let nobody know of it.’’ Then, with a confidential air, the man con- tinued: ‘‘But he is no good now. Iam laying for him, andif I get a chance I’ll get even with him.’’ The next moment the man began telling about being a book-keeper, swindling his em- ployer out of $1,200 and covering his thefts by false entries until twoof them Were discov- ered and he was discharged. He was taken to the station in Sixty-seventh street. The Sergeant on duty says that nothing was said here about any assault on Mr. Cleveland, but the man talked so incoherently that he was sent to Bellevue Hospitalg Gannon reported that the man had been ging a number of bells in Madison avenue. On the way to Bellevue the prisoner said he had been two days in the city and had _ stopped at the Chatham Hotel inthe Bowery, but had to leave because he had only 17 cents left. Then he grew violentand it took three men to keep him from rushing out of thecar. At Bellevue Hospital he said he was 80 years old, had lived in New York thirteen years and that a Mr. Maillack in Seventh street could tellallabout him. No such man as Maillack lives in Seventh street. There is no Chatham Hotel in the Bowery. Dr. Douglass, who ex- amined himin the Bellevue, said last night he was clearly insane and had been much excited all day, trying very often to tear his clothes off. He was fairly well dressed before he tore his clothes inthe elevatedcars. Mr. Cleveland comes home every afternoon about 4o’clock andis usually walking. When Mr. Cleveland was asked about,the case at his office he said he had heard nothing of it. The good looking young man who answers the door bell there said he had heard nothing ofa stranger acting inan unusual fashion on the door step. A Family’s Narrow Escape.

The Question of Disarming the Indians Still Perplexing the Military—Oer~. tainty of a Bloody Fight if the At- tempt Is Made—The Settlement Prac tically a Redman’s Victory. From our Staff Correspondent. PINE RIDGE AGENCY, Jan. 16, via Rushville, Neb.—There ts a good deal of anxiety here on account of the extremely lenient policy of Gen, Miles since the hostiles arrived at the agency. The Indians have done nothing they did not choose to do, and Miles seemed pleased. They camped where he told them, and he says they are obeying his orders, and yesterday he notified them there would be but one chief, and he would be that chief. The chiefs agreed td disarm their men and bring in the guns. Word was given that the arms would be in yes- terday. Yesterday came and seventeen rattle-trap pieces were brought in, Big Road surrendered nine,two of them shot- guns. As the arms of his band Kicking: Bear gaveup his own. The Indians have done just what everyone predicted, surrendered seme worthless pieces and hidden the rest. Now they say at headquarters the fguns will continue to come in from time to time and it doesn’t matterso much whether they are surrendered or not, ifthe Indians show a peaceful disposition. It is believed here that Miles has found it impossible to get the arms voluntarily and that the thorities will not permit him toe take them away by “force, because that might precipitate a fight which would not be approved by Eastern sentiment, and Gen. Miles is making the best of a bad pre- dicament. THE RESULT. The result of this is that the Indians will re- tain their arms,and while they do there can be no feeling of security here. At Wounded Knee the Government was com- mitted to the policy of disarming the wild and crazy savages, who are now at Since that fight, the Government has from its position.

The women say that they, too, were searched and their Knives (Which they always carried for domestic pur- poses) taken from them.

The weight of testimony is over- whelmingly against this supposition. There may have been oneor two isolated cases of this kind, but there is no doubt that the great majority of the women and children, as weil as many unarmed youngmen and youths, had no thought of anything but flight. They were pursued upthe ravines and shot down indiscriminately by the soldiers.’’ A CORRESPONDENT MISSING. DULUTH, Minn., Jan. 16.—Guy W.

Their Rifies Cocked— Wonderful Powers of Endurance Displayed. Special Correspondence POST-DISPATOM. «©. PINE RIDGE AGENCY, via Rushville, Neb., Jan.13.—The Indians are certainly coming in, and the chances now are that there will be no war, atleast not at present. The Indians, however, do not come in as conquered tribes, but have rather the appearance and bearing of victorious warriors, or at least of men who have gained part of what they were striving for. The young bucks preservea very defiant attitude, are continually parad- ing in war-like array, and no soldier is al- lowed to approach their encampment. When a@ supply train, bound for one of the outlying commands passed near the Indian . Camp, the young warriors ran out, took upa commanding position on the hills, and it looked as ifan attack wasto be made. They allowed the team to pass in peace, but im mediately sent a message to Gen. Miles, warning him that no more troops or wagons must be sent soneartheir camp. Whatever the soldiers think, the Indians do not believe that they have in any sense been conquered or outgeneraled, and are rather encouraged than dispirited by the outcome of the cam- paign. A few have made their way into the friendly village, and are rather inclined to boast of their achievements. THE INDIANS NOT DISPIRITED. -By simply making a hostile demonstration they boast that they so frightened the whites that nearly the whole army of the United States had to be sent against them, and that when they were ready tocomein they were allowed todo soon their own terms. The fact that they were not attacked they con- sider to be equivalent to an admission that the troops were afraid to do so, and the younger men have more confidence in their ability to bring a war toa successful conclu- sion than they ever had before. The com- mon talk among the hostiles as reported by thee friendlies who have been among them. is that they came in be- cause they did not wish to make a winter campaign, but that as soon asthe grass was green in the spring that they would take the warpath. That such a disposition exists among the warlike and restiess young warriors is certain, but Gen. Miles, who understands the situation thor- oughly, will unquestionably take such steps as will, render any attempt ata rising in the spring, abortive. That the Indians in- tend to surrender in good faith, . scarcely admits of a question, Their action in leaving an almost impregnable stronghold,and in pitching their camp right under the dreaded cannon, is in- disputable proofof this. There are a few young hotheads who are spoiling for a fight, but the great majority even of the most belligerent are ready to suspend hostilities until a more favorable season. AN IMPERFECT DISARMAMENT, * Another evidence of this is the fact that there are very few armsinthe camp. Scouts and friendjies alike state that Indians, who as an ordinary rule are never seen without their guns, now go about the camp totally uhbarmed. There are a few good rffies in the hands of the hostiles, but every one knows ae these will disappear before the troops ré admitted to the camp. A repetition of the Wounded Knee fights is no longer feared, as the reasons that led tothat fight do not exist.. There will be no trouble about surrendering the arms, for all that those in camp have to surrender are some old muzzle- mg rifies, shotguns and unserviceable nchesters. The readiness with which the chiefs agreed to collect and give up the rifies intheir hands was proof positive that the ‘Sighting arms were in a safe place. They are cached in the Bad Lands, and to look for the proverbial needle ina haystack would be an asy task compared with that of finding the en Winchesters. This practice of a mock of arms has been a When Chief Joseph’s Nez Perces surrendered to Miles, all that the troops obtained were a few battered old muskets, although they knew by experience that the Indians were “far better armed than they were.

GREAT VICTORY FOR THE IMPORTERS OF WORSTED GOODS. The Secretary Must Return $2,500,000 Collected From Them Under His Ruling Two Years Ago Classifying Worsteds as Woolens—The Fight of P. J. Cun- ningham of This City Against Win- dom’s Ruling. About $2,500,000 will be refunded importers of woolen and worsted goods within the next sixty days by the Govérnment, as the result of a decision just made by the United States Supreme Court. It is a victory for the importers of the East, and Mr. P. J. Cunningham of this city, one of the fiercest opponents of a ruling made by Secre- tary Windom, who isthe defeated one in the contest. In 1883, when the tariff bill was re- vised, worsteds were classed lower than woolens and a lower duty was made for them than for woolen goods. - WINDOM’S RULING. Early in 1889, after Secretary Windom came into office, he instructed the customs officers to collect equal duty on woolensand worst- mcf ae arbitrary ruling of the Secretary hec ification of worsteds was changed, notwithstanding that Congress in 1883 recog nized the trade distinction between the two and separately provided for both. Woolens, which include all kinds of woolen clothes made by a certain process, were rated by Congress in 1883 higher than wors- teds, which, however, arenow made with much more expensive machinery and by more skilful workmen, and are worth more, now, than woolens. DIFFERENCE IN MANUFACTURE. The difference between worsteds and wool- ens, as recognized by the trade, lies solely in the treatment of the wool. Ifthe maker de- cides to use his wool for worsted he passes it through a combing machine, which combs out the short and broken fibers, leaving the long fibers parallel with each other. These long hairs are called **wool tops,’’ and are valued much more highly than the short and broken fibres which are called ‘‘noils.’’ The wool fibre is covered with more or less serrations, saw-teeth like, according to quality. When wool is carded the fibers are so intertwined and the saw-teeth become so interlocked that when woven intocloth and ‘‘fulled’’ they aid in giving solidity to the cloth finished for market. The ‘‘wool tops’’ or long fibers having been left in parallel lines or rows by the combing-machine and the serrations or saw-teeth lying also inone direction, when made into yarn are robbed of their felting properties. For a long time it was generally recognized that the only difference between worsted and wool cloth was that the worsted was not ‘‘fulled,’’ while the wool cloth was. This distinction does not hold good to-day, as all medhim “heavy - weight ~so - called whbrsted cloths are ‘‘fulled’’ to a more or less extent, since such process gives to the goods a softer or leathery feel- ing, and if either worsted’ or wool should pay higher duty than the other, it is clear that the higher rates should be charged against worsted. The wool from which it is made is the finest and most perfect, ebut though this is a stubbogn fact the refuse or ‘*nolls’’ extracted by the ‘combing ~‘machine from the unbroken and long fibers, though of minor value, when made into wool cloth, areclassifieed at a much higher duty, while certain grades of worsted cloth areimported ata less duty than charged upon the raw wool from which ‘they are made. WHY WINDOM DID IT. f This is what Secretary Windom noticed when he went into office, and he proceeded to change it on his own responsibility. The importers protested, claiming that he was usurping the powers of Congress in raising the duty on worsteds, and when they paid their duties, they also filed a protest, and many of them sued. Mr. P. J. Cunningham of “this city kept up these tactics for more than a year and was one of the principal witnesses in the case of Julius Ballin & Co. of New York, whosued the broker Magonetorecover their duties paid under the Windom ruling. AGAINST WINDOM. was before Judge McComb in the United States District Court and lasted nine days, during which time fifty witnesses were examined as to the meaning of the words ‘‘woolens’’ and ‘*worsteds.’’ Many of them were brought here from England to testity. The jury found that Windom had exceeded his authority in increasing the duty on worsteds, and decided in favor of Ballin & Co. Windom appealed to the S8u- preme Court of the United States, but while the case was pending another case ofa simi- lar nature came to the front and was de- cided, namely, the case of Anthony Seebur- ger vs. Bernard Cohen etal. of Chicago, and this decision ends the controversy and settles the several hundred suits brought in this country. The following is the letter sent out by Sec- retary Windom tothe Collectors of Customs throughout the country: TREASURY DEPARTMENT, OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY. WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 31, 1890. Collector af Customs, New York, N. Y.: Sin—The department isin receipt of a letter from the Attorney-General, dated the 26th inst., in which he states thatin view of the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the case of Anthony F. Seeburger, Collector, etc., vs. Bernard Cohen etal., which held that ‘‘though worsted is doubt- less a product of wool, and might in some aspects be considered a manufacture of wool, yet manufactures of worsted being subjected by the sec- ond paragraph’’ (T. I. 363) to different duties from those imposed ‘‘by the first paragraph’’ (T. I. 362), on manufactures of wool, it necessarily follows that a manufacture of worsted can not be considered as a manufacture of wool within the meaning of this statute (act of March 3,1883), the writ of error in the case of Danicl Magone, Collector, etc., v. Julius Ballin, et al,, involving the question as tothe classi- fication of worsted diagonals, suitings, coatings, etc. (S. 9,400), can not be sustained and will be dis- Missed, inasmuch as the jury found in said case that the merchandise was exclusively of worsted. You are therefore authorized on due entry of judg- mentin said suit in the Circuit Court, under the mandates of the Supreme Court, to take the nerces- sary steps for its settlement, and also the same steps with reference to all other similar suits now pending where the requirements of law as to protest, appeal, ee of suit, etc., have been fully complied with. This decision will apply to importations of worsted cloths made prior to the passage of the act of May 9, 1890 (8. 10,020). Respectfully yours, Wa. WINDOM, Secretary. J. G. M. This trial Mr. Windom has concluded that he made a mistake and that it would be foolish to keep up the litigation any longer. He has the sat- isfaction, however, of being sustained by Congress in his opinionas to what the law should be, as Congress passed an act May 9, 1690, fixing an equal duty on worsteds and woolens, A yard of worsted or woolen costing $2 per yard in England is taxed 50 per cent of its value on reaching this country and 44 Gents per pound on its weight. Ifa yard valued at $2 weighs 16 ounces when it lands in this country it is worth $8.44, exclusive of freight charges, storage and profits. MUST PAY BAOK $2,500,000. By the decision of the Supreme Court in this matter Secretary Windom will now have to return toimporters the money he collected from them on worsteds which they paid un- der protest from May, 1888, when he made his decision, until May, 1890,when Congress came to his assistance and made his rate a legal one. The excess Fg in amounts to between $2,500,000 and $3,000,000, all of which will be returned with interest.Of this Mr.K:J.

The lead- ing spirits in this mutual benefit arrange- ment are Pohlinan Bros. & Co., Henry Schure- man, Schureman Bros., Henry Mueller, A. R. Hoffman, N.J. Hortman,Fred Zeigler, Joseph Schureman, Jacob Pfeffer, Geo. Shroll and P. Garrey, Mr. B. R. Bonner, Pohiman and Mueller are the workers for the crowd and are running things. They are certainly running things with a high hand and expect to get control of the bulk of the districts. To strengthen their position they have gone to the extent of trying to dictate to the wagon makers of the city. The sprinklers in this city have not enough wagons now to do the work and it is certain that no matter who gets the pcontracts new wagons must be secured. Taking this fact into consideration the mem- bérs of the combine have agreed as to what they willdo. Theunderstanding is that none of the combine shall buy wagons in St. Louis, but get them through the combine froma Chicago firm which has consented to make arrangements. An attempt will be made to prevent all outsiders from getting wagons here and force them to buy tnem through the combine. There have been about two dozen outsiders applied for bidding blanks but how many of these have an understanding with the combine is not known and will only de- velop after the bids are all in. Streets and Alleys Now Under Contract. The work of constructing the following streets and alleys will be commenced as soon asthe weather will justify the Street Com- missioner in giving notice tothe contractors to break ground under their contracts, which have been duly executed. Streets—Twentieth street, between Cass avenue and Madison street (Telford), Hogan & Perkinson; Cabannme street, between Belt av- enue and Goodfellow avenue (Telford), John B.

The Union Depot ordinance will come up in the regular order of business in the Council this evening and all indications are that the objectionable bridge amendment will be taken out and the ordinance passed without it. Mr. Hubert Taussig was asked yesterday what the company had done in the way of plans for the depot and said: ‘‘We have no plans made at all and have not even any un- der consideration. Several architects have submitted plans, but we have not committed ourselves to them inany way. It is not prob- able that we will touch the building plans un- til we have the preliminaries all settled.’’ If amicable arrangements can be made to- night in the Council the bill will pass there and then go to the House of Delegates. Dr. Taussig, anxious as he is to have the amendment taken out of the bill, expressly disclaims having forced anybody to do any- thing in the matter. The Boulevard to Be Extended. Mr. Julius Pitzman, engineer forthe Catlin Land Co., presented informally this morning to the board,a plan which will be put into ex- ecution immediately. When the work is done one of the prettiest roads in St. Louis will be established. Theentire continuation of Lin- dell avenue west from Union avenue, will be graded and paved with Telford making a driveway absolutely level from end to end and give a continuous roadway from Grand avenue over Lindellto King’s highway and from there west alongthe north side of the park to its western boundary. This improve- ment will be made at the expense of the property north of the park. No Liquor Will Be Sold. The Committee on Ways and Means of the Council has about made up its mind on the question of letting the Forest Park privileges. Of the many proposals under consideration they will select one they consider the best, and one which will leave them the assurance that the restaurant will be conducted ina manner not calculated to shock or disturb any of the visitors. It is also practically decided that no liquor shall be sold within the limits of the park. This lat- ter arrangement is considered the most satis- factory, as there is no necessity for allowing beer selling, and all of those who consider drinking a necessary part of an afternoon’s amusement can get their drinks at any or all of the many places convenient to the park. An Inspector’s Rig Stolen. The Building Department is now mourning the loss of a horse and buggy. Inspector Gitour yesterday, as has been his custom for some time, hitched his horse to a post on Chestnut street in front of the City Hall and went about his office work. When he went for his horse it was gone. The po- lice were immediately notified, but as yet notraces oftherig have been found. It is barely possible that some of the city em- ployes took it by mistake asall the rigs are very much alike and such mistakes have oc- currea before at the Hall. Lights for the Water Towers. The citizens of North St. Louis have at last succeeded in getting the city to order up the long-desired electric lights on the Water Towers. There will be six arc lights put upon } top of each of the two towers and maintained at the city’s expense. The company doing the lighting will have to make its own ar- rangements with the unfortunate man who will have toclimb those two flights of stairs every day to renew the carbons in the lamps. B. P. I. Meeting. At the regular meeting of the Board of Pub- lic Improvements this morning another forward step was taken on the new City Hall building. A day was set for receiving bids for the first course of granite work, which will bring the building up to the level of the basement ceiling. The estimated cost oi this work is $60,000, and it is expected to get first-class material and first-class masonry. 7 The mext contract will then be for fancy granjte work. Budweiser Restaurant.

Fritz Robisch, a Luxembirg Tanner, Gives Some Remarkable Testimony. There were in Division No. 1 of the Circuit Court yesterday a numberof average Amer- icans, average as to wealth, industry and habits of economy. They listened with wide eyes to the testimony of Fritz Robisch, a Luxemburg tanher, who had sued a Mrs. EBichmeier for the possession of her little home in South St. Louis. The story of the case is like this. The woman’s first husband was insured in two orders and one company. She collected the amounts due on | the policies at his death and intrusted it to Charles Robisch. That was fourteen years ago. Robisch claimed to have expended the entire sum for her, and sheclaims that he Is still indebted to her. Some two or three years ago, at the instance of her som, Charles Kobisch took up a note for $50, which Mrs. Eichmeter had given a South 8t. Louis money-lender and which was secured by a deed of trust on her house. Part of the principal and some interest had been paid on the note. Robisch, the elder, said he paid $60 for itand made a pretended sale of the note to his son Fritz for that sum. The latter demanded possession of the prop- erty described‘in the deed of trust. Mrs. Eichmeler refused to give possession. He had the property sold by the Sheriff and bought ft in for $120. Fritz Robisch was on the stand. He worked for his father, who is a tannér, he said. ‘*‘What wages do you receive?’’ ‘*Don’t get no wages.’’ ‘*Do you live at home?’’ **No; lam married.’’ ‘*‘How do you paythe expenses of your house?’’ ‘*I get the bones at the tannery. I sell them and keep the money.’*’ ” ‘*How much do you get in this way?’’ ‘*From $20 to $40 a month.’’ ‘*How long have you been getting from $20 to $40 per month?’’ ‘*Two or three years.’”’ ‘*When were you married?’’ ** July 19, 1889.’” - ‘*‘When did you buy the rn.te from your father?’’ ~ **About two months and a half after I was married,’’ ‘*How much did you pay for board before your marriage?’’ ‘*Nothing. Ilived at home and didn’t pay no board.’’ **You were then receiving from $20 to $40 per month from the sale of bones?’’ cé¢ Yes. 39 **What did you do with your money?’’ ‘*I spent some and saved some.’’ **How much had you saved when you were married?’’ **One hundred dollars.’’ **Did you have that after your marriage?’’ **‘No, I spent it furnishing my house.’’ **How much does it cost you to live?’’ **I] don’t know, $15 or $16.’’ **A week or month?’* **A month.’’ *‘*What rent do you pay?’’ **Five dollars a month.,’’ **Where did you get the money with which you bought the note from your father?’’ ‘*From my trunk at home.’’ ‘*Who put it in the trank.’’ 6 I did. ’?9 ‘*Where did you get it?’’ **T saved it.”’ **From the money you got from the sale of bones?’’ sé Yes : i ‘*You saved $60 in two months anda half out of an income from $20 to $40 per month?’’ sé Ves. ’* ' The spectators and court officials held their breath and gazed apon the wonder of economy. ‘*There is the Jay Gould of the future,’’ they said. ‘*Takea lookat the Rothschild of 1900,’’ they whispered to each other. There was a still greater surprise for them further on. It appeared from Robisch’s story that he had paid Sheriff Pohlman $120 for the property atthe sale, $0 in the note and $60 in cash, ‘*Where did you get that $60?’’ **T saved it.’’ **The papers show the sale was on Oct. 4, 1889. Now, do you say you paid the Sheriff out of money you had.saved?’’ sé Yes. | P **You were married July 19, 1889, I believe. Now, twoanda half months after that you paid your father $60 for the note?’’ sé Yes _ >? ‘‘And a few days later you paid Sheriff Pohlman $60 more?’’ ‘*Yes,.”’ **You paid $120 out of money you saved from July 19 to Oct. 4out of an income of $20 to $40 per month?’’ 4 ‘Yes. ’? **Look at all the Bonariza Kings of a future California crowded into that witness chair,’’ whigpered the audience. The examination went on. Robisch was asked the same questions 50 many times that he began to figure a bit. Presently he ad- mitted he had borrowed $70 of his father with which to pay Sheriff Pohlman. Later still he said he had not saved the $60 he gave his father for the note but had obtained the money from his wife, who had $75 given her as a wedding present. Still later he said her wedding present was $70. He paid his father $5 on account of the money borrowed last February and in December paid him $20 more. The father placed uponthe stand denied that he had ever loaned the boya cent, or that the boy had ever paid him a cent on ac- count of borrowed money. He said he sold Fritz the note for $0 andthe latter had paid him in three $20 gold pieces. The spectators were relieved. Judge Klein concluded both witnesses were unworthy of belief and the case was submitted. Deaths.

This afternoon an informal conference wag held in the direetors’ room of the Merchants* Exchange between the members of the Union Depot Committee and a num- ber of Olark avenue property owners. President Bernheimer said: ‘‘An impression has gotten out that the Mer- chants’ Exchange has calleda mass-meeting to protest against any obstacles being thrown4in the way of the construction of @ new Union depot. There was never any ground whatever for this impression, as we simply appointed a committee to confer with the Councilin reference to the ordinance to be passed. The Clark avenue people say that they have no objection whatever to the construction of the depot, but want a pro- vision that the street shall be bridged intro- duced into the ordinance. To-day they stated their position, and it will receive full consid- eration at the hands of the Merchants’ Ex- change committee.

Doubtless there are ‘defects in our State constitution which could be_ better amended bya convention than by piece- meal amendments proposed and submitted to the people by the General Assembly. But in the absence of any definite scheme of improvements, it is probably safe to as- sume thatthe original opponents of the best features of the constitution of 1875 are among those who arenow calling for a convention to give us a new one, They do not now openly attack the rail- road and corporation articles or the pro- visions which restrict the taxing and debt- creating power. But when they do ven- ture to say that it ‘‘ties the hands of the f@ople’’ they obviously refer to the re- strictions on the issue of ‘‘aid’’ bonds, on the creation of public indebtedness and on other processes of laying mortgages on the property and earnings of the people. In- stead of being restrictions on the power of the people these are restrictions on ‘the power of the people’s agents to make them the slaves of monopolists and bond specu- lators, By these restrictions our State, its municipalities and its people have since 1875 been rescued from impending bank- ruptcy and been placed in thejvery front rank of financial credit. To these restric- tions Missouri consciously owes a greater reduction of burdens and more of sub- stantial progress and prosperity than have marked any other fifteen-year period in her history. We have no fear that the people will per- mit any convention to let down the bars put up in 1875 and to launch us again on the wild current of lobby legislation in be- half of corporation promoters, bond grab- bersand speculators in monopoly fran- chises. But when the great mass of people have given no sign of discontent with the constitution as it is it devolveson the dis- satisfied to specify the changes desired be- fore the Legislature submits to the people the question of calling a revision conven- tion. The time is not particularly propi- tious to wholesome revision when the air is full of new party fadsand radical theo- ries, all of which would be dumped into the election of the convention and greatly confuse its deliberations. But those who chase shadows and rainbows are too few in this State to carry the proposed call, and there is no use in submitting it unless it presents a definite and popular schedule of amendments to the people. a ed THE IMPORTANT POINT. The matter of the new Union Depot has assumed a phase which makes it probable that the expected action of the Council to- night on the depot ordinance will deter- mine whether the project shall be pushed toa successful result or indefinitely post- poned. The whole question hinges ona couple of unimportant amendments which are capable of amicable and satisfactory arrangement. All citizens are united in an ardent desire to secure anew Union Depot on any rea- sonable terms. It will mean vastly in- creased facilities and conveniences for rail- way passenger service, which carry with them increased advantages for the city. It will undoubtedly be worth millions of dol- lars to St. Louis. The members of the Council should give the proposition sensible, business-like treatment, hold- ing in view the clear rights and interests of the city. and the value of the object under consideration. The principal point to be gained is the guarantee of the immediate building of the right kind of depot on conditions which will guard the plain rights of the city. This conclusion will meet allfair de- mands, and there is no reason to doubt that it may be reached if the Council acts with discretion. The people of St. Louis will not stand the defeat of this important and cherished object through blundering or at- tempted boodling. THE Indiana proposition for co-operation on the part of Western States in passing uniform laws taxing foreign capital loaned to their people proceeds upon the idea that money lenders would ‘‘come down’’ to a ‘‘combine’’ of States and not withdraw capital therefrom when the members of the ‘feombine’’ ceased to bid against each other. But even in that case who would pay the local taxes on this borrowed cap- italy the lenders or the borrowers? What would hinder the lenders from combining to make the borrowers pay an interest rate large enough to cover the local tax? Se, ee — ONE unfortunate element in the Sioux situation is that the acknowledged wrongs which have been inflicted upon tho Sioux place the Government-in an apologetic atti- tude towards 4 revolting and marauding band of Indians. It is impossible to punish | the Sioux for an outbreak into which it is fadmitted theyjwere driven by the misman- agement of Government agents. The result is that revolt will be encouraged by the success of this one in improving the condi- tion of the Indians who engaged ‘in it. There does not appear to be any escape, however, from this national humiliation. OnE of the first fruits of the sweeping Democratic victory in Indiana is a resolu- tion passed by both Houses of the Legisla- j wi a er ture asking Congress to propose a constitu- | ness interests of | the a con- trol of the Senate. Cum ehweit my ie Illinois who re- éently “broke loose from his- Republican reservation and spoke swear words about | the Great Father at Washington has been deposed, and Chiefs TaLLER and WoLcorT of the Colorado Tribe have been compelled to. come into camp and surrender their arms. Thus does the party of Central- ized despotism practice what it preaches. THEBE is trouble over the diversion of coal oilinspection fees from the State Treasury into private pockets in Iowa, and there is going to be trouble over the same thing in Missouri unless the Democrats of this State follow the example of their In- diana brethren, and require all fees to be accounted for to the State. —, WR do not see why Senator HoAR should worry and work for the passage of the force bill. The leaders of his party are acting outits spirit in New Hampshire, Connecticut, Montana,’ Colorado, and wherever fraud and force may avail to re- verse the result of elections by the people. ——— 0 THE Kansas farmers may find everything they want in INGALLs’ speech to them, ex- cept something to inspire faith in its sin- cerity. They are treating him as our Gov- ernment proposes to treat KICKING BEAR. They will accept his surrender, but take very good care to disarm him. 0 ee THE growth of the want advertising de- partment of the SuNDAY Post-DIsPATCH merely demonstrates that the people of St, Louis know a good thing when they see it.

Candidate ‘Expresses a Willing- ness to Tell He Knows to That Tri- bunal—Proofs Said to Have Been Se- cured That the Money Was Not Used for the Purpose It Was Contributed. The unexpected move of the reorganized Republican Central Committee in threatening a Grand-jury investigation and criminal pro- ceedings against Secretary Ford Smith and Treasurer Thos. 0. Martin of the old com- mittee, to forcea detailed statement of the handling of. funds during the fall campaign, seems to have been the result of some private investigation of the matter made by dissatis- fled members of the Central Committee be- fore the reorganitation took place, In consequence of that investigation the re- organized committee believes that it already has proofs of mismanagement and financial looseness strong enough to warrant carrying } it before the Grand-jury, and the leaders of the investigation state that such action will undoubtedly be taken unless the report is forthcoming. Oommitteeman Charles Claudius of the Fifth Ward is the head and front of the impending inves- tigation, and so confident was he of the case being one that demanded the atten- tion of the Grand.jury that his original mo- = atthe committee meeting last Monday ight was tothe effect that such action be en without further effort to bring Messrs. Ford Smith and Martin to time by persuasive methods, Whatever evidence Claudius had secured in the premises is known to the reorganized committee, but is being rigidly withheld from the public until the committee of five, of which Claudius is Chair- man, takes official action in the matter. That action, it is stated, will be taken at as early a date as possible. Ex-Treasurer Thos. C. Martin is nowin Jefferson City, but before he left it is said that he stated that Ford Smith was in reality the treasurer, so far as the handling of funds went, and that to Ford Smith the committee would have to look for the financial report of the last cam- paign. A DEMAND FOR THE BOOKS. The formal demand for the production of the books and papers will accordingly be made upon Mr. Smith, and the carrying of the investigation before the Grand-jury will be done upon his positive re- fusal to produce them or to make a satisfactory report. A new development in the case to-day is that there is a general feeling that the action of the re- organized committee was originally promptéd by complaints of candidates on the late ticket against the management of the financial end ofthe campaign, and that it ts a fact that some of the defeated candidates, who would object to coming voluntarily into a fight within the party ranks, will be nevertheless, toappear before the Grand-jgry under compulsion, and thus aid the offidial investigation. Shortly before the reorganization of the Central Committee took place in December, there was an important meeting of fifteen members of the committee held one night at the saloon of Commit- teeman Claudius at Ninth and Julla Those present were G. Bierman, Fourth Ward; Charles Claudius, Fifth Ward; Louis Wagner, Ninth Ward; Wm, Pape, Eleventh Ward; Fred Hoffmeister, Third Ward; Terence V. Kilkullen, Fourteenth Ward; George B. Rein- stadtler, Fifteenth Ward; H. Wm. Bierman, Sixteenth Ward; A. Niebert , Eighteenth Ward; Andrew McGrew, Nineteenth Ward; C’G. Schoenhard, Jr., Twénty-first Ward; George Bain, Twenty-second Wara; Henry Grass- muck, Twenty-fourth Ward; A. J. Davis, Twentieth Ward, and Fred Hussman of the Twenty -sixth Ward. Before the meeting, it is said, Claud- jus first brought the evidence which he believes supports a ¢tharge of mismanage- ment of the campaign funds, and it was resolved at that early day to institute an in- vestigation as soon’asa reorganization of the committee insured investigation and not whitewash. Lawyers have been consulted in the case; it ‘ts said, and after examining the evidence secured by the reor- ganized committee have stated that the facts warranted a Graad-jury investigation, This can be secured simply by the production of proofs strong enough to create a suspicion of intentional and then the sworn state- ment of every candidate on the late Republi- can ticket would be taken at once, showing the amounts paid into the Central Committee’s treasury during the campaign. The total of these amounts would, of course, show the aggregate of . the cam- paign fund and then investigation would be made of ,the manner in which the fund melted away until a deficit of $30 was all that remained to be passed upon. ‘ PROSSER WILL TESTIFY. The one item fm the informal report read by Secretary Ford smith at the Turner Hall meeting which was regarded with the most outspoken suspicion by the campaign fund investigators was that crediting Thos. J. Prosser, Republican candidate for Congress from the Ninth Congressional District, with only $500 paid into the Central Committee. This was char- acterized as absurd on its face. It was plainly stated that Prosser had spent $24,000 in his race, and to suppose that the Republican Central Committee handled only $500 of that amount would tax the cre- dulity of the veriest political infant beyond its limit. The reorganized committee depend upon Prosser’s testimony before the Grand- jury to bring out some startling facts. Whatever that testimony will be before the Grand-jury, ex-candidate Prosser is deter- mined that it shall not be forthcoming un- less to that body. He was seen by a Post- DISPATCH reporter this morning and said: ‘I will of course tell the Grand-jury exactly what I contributed to the Republican campaign fund, but I would not do so otherwise. I most positively decline to make any statement for pub- lication bearing upon the subject. I have read the account of the report of Secretary Ford Smith, crediting me with the amount of $500, paid into. the Central Committee treas ury. I must decline either to confirm or den that statement until I am summoned before the ‘Grand-jury. I would like it to be understood that I have no _. per- sonal grievance in this matter. ‘I be- lieve the Republican ticket went by the board in November last upon national issues and if there might have~ been local mis- management, I don’t think that would have accounted for the general defeat. ‘*T have not been approached by any mem- bers of the reorganized Central Committee, and know nothing of this investigation be- yond what I have readin the papers. I must rote to say whetheror not Lapprove of t — + =. ao + nag rT , JOY WOULDN'T ae THEM, q The investigation to be made by the com- mittee of five appointed last Monday night Australian ballot system in vogue at the last election did away with a great proportion of legitimate campaign expenses. There was no printing of tickets, no employing of men to work at the polls, and several other sources of expense were also done away with by the Australian system. One of the Central Committee also stated positively this morning that Secretary Ford Smith never filed the informal statement. made by him before the Turner Hall meeting, but put it back in his pocket as previously stated. AN UNACCEPTABLE REPORT. The report read only filled one side of a sheet of foolscap, and was nothing but a few memoranda. Even if it had been filed, there was no Central Committee in the world that would accept such a paper as the officialreport of the management ofa campaign fund like that handled for the Re- publican party during the last campaign. The Post- DISPATCH reporter called at the saloon of Committeeman Charles Claudius fat Seventh and Julia street thif | morning to gain further facts as to the investigation, but Mr. Claudius had gone up town fortheday. As Chairman of the Investigating Committee of five, andthe one who offered the motion to institute criminal proceedings for the purpose of bringing the campaign fund mud- die into the light of day Committeeman Olaudius may be regarded as the head of the startling fight now stirring up the Repub- lican party in St. Louis. He is, however, strongly backed by other members. of the reorganized committee. BILLS WHICH WERE IGNORED. Cases in Which the Grand-Jury Returned No Indictment. The January Grand-jury, which has been in session at the Four Courts since the 5th inst., yesterday ignored bills against John Car- ter, Jerry Williams, Edwin Elroy and W. OC. Maddox, Wiliam Haggen, Edward P. Elliott, Bevery Johnson (two), Gharles Meyers and Geo. CO. Williams. Carter was charged with burglary in the first degree and larceny in breaking into the residence of Ellen McCarthy, 1614 Ley avenue, and stealing a watch and chain. Jerry Willlams was charged with robbery in the first degree in holding up Frank 8tuck- lik and stealing from him $50. Edwin Elroy and W. C. Maddox were charged with fraud. The defendants are the two spiritualistic fakirs who gave a seance atthe Pickwick Theater on the evening of Oct. 26. The fraud was discovered by the audience and the meeting broke up in a small-sized riot, the whole scheme of deception being exposed. Richard Ker- shaw of 1016 Morrison avenue swore outa warrant charging the men with fraud in ob- taining from him the 3% cents he paidat the door by means of a false pretense. The de- fendants have been in jafPever since. William Hoggen was charged with grand larceny in stealing $350 from M. 8. Fogle. The } prosecuting witness was the business mana- ger of a theatrical cempany which played at Pope’s in September. He stopped at the Lindell Hotel and left two packages of money under his pillow when he went to breakfast one morning. When he returned, one package containing $850 was gone, Hoggen,a house servant, was charged with the theft. There was little or no evi- dence against him. Beverly Johnston was charged in two cases with grand larceny. The defendant isa ne- gro, and was alleged to have been engaged in the wholesale theft of valuable dogs in the West End. Warrants were issued charging him with stealing one dog from Joseph Kalin, 4468 Vista avenue, and two dogs from James Summerfield, 5255 Dagget avenue. Edward P. Elliott was charged with grand larceny in stealinga horse and buggy from Dr. Alexander B. Shaw, 2900 Chestnut street. The rig was taken from a down-town street corner. Elliott was arrested in LIllinois by Detective Viehle. Charles Meyers was alsocharged with grand larceny, it being alleged that on Aug. 6 he stole a gold watch of the value of $50 from William L. Wright, 1113 Washington avenue. George Williams was charged with fraud. | It was alleged thatthe defeudant had made use of a false and fradulent pretense in order to obtain $100 from James C. Tiernan, 2123 | Chestnut street. John Carter, Jerry Will- lams, Edwin Elroy and W. C, Maddox were in jail, the other defendants having furnished [ bona. WENT WITHOUT A REQUISITION, Henry Wilson Admits Committing a Rob- bery at Collinsville. This morning a delegation of citizens from Collinsville, Ill., arrived at the Four Courts for the purpose of identifying Henry Wilson as the man against whom they had a warrant for grand larceny. Wilson was arrested yes- terday evening by Officers Race and French of the-Third District, who found him in the act of offering for sale two gold watches at a Morgan street second-hand store. The watches were later found to answer the description of time- pieces reported stolen at Collinsville, Ill., and a tel- ephone message was sent to the authorities at that point, who came onatonce. It appears that two weeks ago Wilson ‘‘blew’’ into Col- linsville and loafed about the village. Wednesday night he was permitted by John Metzger to sleep at his residence, Early the following morning he went through the clothing of William Eagle and Wm. Bodey, who were yet asleep in the same room, taking from Eagle two gold watches and a pair of shoes and from Bodey a watch anda pair of shoes. Then he disappeared. To-day he admitted the whole job and returned with Sheriff J. H. Morris to Madison County, I1l., without waiting for the issuance of papers of requisition. Wilson claims Nebraska as his home. ; ROBBED OF EVERYTHING. ife, Child, Money and His Household Tony Schelle, a German laborer living at 1816 Pestalozgzi street, reports that his wife has left him and gone to live with another man, one Frank Erb, who has been his fellow workman a long time, and whom he consid- ered one of his most trusted is bad enough, he says, but besides off his wife took their little DAINTY ODDS ‘AND ‘ENDS SALE OF THE BELONGINGS OF ALLEN | THORNDYER RICE. a Toilet Articles and Curling Irons Belong- ing to the Late Millionaire Bachelor Disposed of at Auction—An Interested New York, Jan, 16.—Yesterday’s sale of the belongings of the late millionaire bachelor Allen Thorndyke Rice, at Wetmore’s auction rooms, was attended by three times as many persons as were present the day before, when the first batch of goods was offered for bid- ding. There was a more numerous represen- tation of the patrons of society and the young swells who would be delighted if they could know that when they die some of their effects | would cause so much comment as has at- tached to the auctioning ofthe curious and immense collection which filled the house of the editor of the North American Review. Before the business of the day began there Was a great deal of speculation as to what wopld be the fate of the 460 in the catalogue. Thisentry was ‘‘Three bags of chips.’’ \ Curious visitors tothe store in the morning had seen these bags @f chips stuck away in a corner of a cabinet. Those who wanted to examine them could not do so be- cause the glass front of the cabinet was locked, and the key thereto could not bé ob- tained upon any plea, But it was known that the chips wereof the regular business kind, and many a young blood who stood be- fore the case speculated upon the possibility of their being the very chips which Mr. Rice had used in that great game of poker a few years ago in which $100,000 changed owners across’ the green cloth. A careless stroller, looking at the various articles inthe ware-rooms, would not have dreamed that there was any- thing in the three little bags thatlay upon the cabinet shelf. For they were insignifi- cant in appearance, were these little leather receptacles plied together, with strings‘drawn about the necks and the label, marked ‘‘400,,’ half out of sight. Those who knew what the bags contained wanted very much to finger the chips, but the keepers ofthe auction rooms would not permit it. Andso young bloods from theclubs stoodidle about and talkediabout the great games in which Mr.Rice indulged.and with the gaming spirit ruling themselves, got up a pool on the probable figure at which the three bags of chips would be knocked down. The highest price which they thought it was likely the chips would obtain was $100, while the lowest figure which thay thought the chips were worth was $10. It turned out, though, afterall, that the pool had to be de- clared off forthe very good reason that the three famous bags of well-used chips were withdrawn from the auction. Just why this course was pursued the manager did not state. He simply said when it was up in the catalogue that the executor of the estate had decided not to put this lot up for bidding, DISCONSOLATE BLOODS. The announcement deprived many of the large crowd present of a pleasure which they had eagerly anticipated. The young bloods who had got upthe pool were especially dis- consolate. They satisfied themselves, however, by talking a great deal about. the contents of two trunks, concerning which something became known yesterday for the firsttime. These were two of the largest of the twenty or more trunks which Mr. Rice had with him while preparing to go to 8t. Petersburg to assume his office as United States Minister to Russia. The two trunks were filled to the top with: letters, most of which were love letters. ‘*‘Ifthey had only been published,’’ said one young man, ‘‘they would have made more money forthe estate of Mr. Rice than he ever got from any issue of the North Ameri- can Review, and I’ll wager they would have caused more of a furorthan Ward McAllister’s old book about society.’’ Those in charge of Mr. Rice’s estate came across the letters while they were going through his effects. A gmall portion of the correspondence was preserved, but the largest part of it was burned. When it became known that the three bags were not going to be put 'up for sale, and that, therefore, the day’s robbed of a certain element of interest, y of the curiosity- seeking men left. Nevertheless, there re- mained gquitea notable throng of men and women, Fred Gebhard stood up prominently in the rear of the room, and Ely Gobbard was conspicuous in another part. Capt. Wm, Connor of the St. James Hotel stood way in front and bid vigorously upon prints, paint- ings, tapestries and other curious odds and ends, apparently as if it were his intention to found inthe St. James Hotel a museum to rival the famous Stokes gallery in the Hoffman House. There were plenty of women at the auction who bought freely and bid against each other and against the men with a vim which ihdicated plenty of spending mgney. Towards the close came one of the most interesting incidents of the day. It was the offering of an ivory toilet set of three pieces as one lot, anda pin cushion and curling tongs as another. The ivory toilet set consisted of two powder boxes and a puff, each. ked with Mr. Rice’s mono- gram. They were probably used by Mr. Rice at the period in his life whenhe shaved, Many a young man gets along without using powder, or if he feels that his skin is delicate and that he must take more care of it, per- haps he buys a piece of magnesia for 5 cents and then congratulates himself that he won’t have to make any additional outlay for this purpose during the rest of his life. A GREAT GULF. To such pecunious individuals who were in the crowd yesterday the exhibition of Mr, Rice’s dainty and expensive boxes and puff applier, marked the gulf which separatés them from the luxurous life of a millionaire bachelor. The set sold for $i5and inthe opinion of the auctioneer, it was dirt cheap. The other lot, the pin cushion and the curling tongs, attracted even moreattention. The pin cushion was of silk and shaped likea heart and the tongs were such asthe maids of rich young women use U their mis- tresses’ locks to bring into lovely form the rebelilous tresses. ‘*Whatever do you suppose Mr. Rice did with those curling tongs?’’ asked a lady of a young man sitting next to her. ‘*Certainly he did not cur! his hair did he?’’ ‘‘Why, no, of course not,’’ replied the young man, bound to offer a bold defense for one of his sex. ‘‘Itis very likely,;you know, he being a man who entertained his friends very often at his house out of town, he pro- vided these little things for the cenvenience of the wives of his guests.’’ ‘«Pshaw!’’ exclaimed the woman, ‘‘I don’t proceedings would necessities of | of looking for curling tongs in a guest cham- eee ne ee ee ‘*Well, perhaps Sen OE Bes but see, they a — national copyright, ‘‘Idon’t believe anything I can tee cruel to the English wri solutely nothing to is not the question of money troubles us.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Jan. 16.—Next Monday afternoon an application will be heard in the Probate Court for the appointment of a con- servator overthe person and estate of Mrs. Louisa English, a widow, aged 7 years. Three weeks ago she was stricken with paralysis,from which she will probably never recover. A little over a year ago Isaac Jewell, about 85 years old, came to this city and took up his residence with his brother-in-law, Wm Loper, who lived in a house belonging to M English. It was not long before the neigh bors began to gossip over the close friendship between Jewell and the widow, and it was re- ported that they were soon to be married. Mrs.English had been set down as a penurious woman, but she began to spend money lav- . ishly. She besought Jewell to take her out riding and bought hima valuable horse and carriage to be used for that purpose. She also built a handsome barn in the rear of her residence in East Bridgeport in which the turnout was kept. A few weeks before her illness she gave him $1,000 with which to pur- chase a saloon, which.he is now running. Friends of Mrs. English at last laid the matter before Attorney Chamberlain. Mr. Chamber- lain had transacted business for Mrs. English for several years and readily consented, and on Monday he visited her, She recejved him kindly and asked him to make her will. He had already drawn up such an instrument and knew what its contents were. He put her off, knowing that no will’ signed by herin her present condition would stand the scrutiny of the court. Mr. Chamberlain remembered that Mrs. English had a son by Charles Myatt, her first husband, and that this son had two children, both living in New York. He sent Sheriff Leonard to that city and found that the son was dead, but that his children, a son and daughter, were living. The son is a fireman on the New York Central — road and the daughter is the wife of Charlies of tor. The amount involved is $60,000. A TREE WITH A HISTORY.

~ GREAT FITZSIMMONS, THERE ARE NO MORE MIDDLE-WEIGHTS FOR HIM TO CONQUER. Jimmy Carroll Generously Consents to Share the, New Zealander’s Earnings With Him-—Gen. Paine Discusses the International Yacht Race. a NEW ORCEANS, La,, Jan. 16.—Jimmy OCar- roll is not losing any time in turning the victory of Fitzsimmons to profit. The pair have formed aco-partnership by which the long, lank New Zealander will do all the fight- ing while crafty James will share half his profits with him, The first great divide in this most remarkable alliance, offensive and defensive, occurred last night when Fitzsfmmons received $11,000 from the Olympic Club for defeating Jack Dempsey, and promptly turned half the amount over to Trainer and Second Carroll. The pair also signed a contract with ‘‘Parson’’ Davies of Chicago last night by which that clever money-maker wit manage them. He is to tour them through this country, and then take Fitzsimmons to England and match him against Ted Pritchard, the English middle-weight champion. If Fitz whips Pritchard, as itis generally be- lieved he will, Davies will tour Carroll and the New Zealander through Europe, return to this country and finally visit Australia. The pugilists expect to realize enough money by their exhibitions and Fitzsimmon’s fights to make them independently rich, and it is their intention to finally return to San Francisco and. go into business. In addition to the $11,000 purse money Fitzsimmons was pre- sented with $7,200 by different parties who won bets on him, FITZSIMMONS PRAISES DEMPSEY. Fitzsimmons was out early yesterday with the only mark upon him, a slight bruise over theeye. He says Dempsey is the best man he ever met and the gamest, andcan whip any other middle-weight in the world. He “1s proud of having won the fight and proud that he treated Dempsey with humanity. It was intended by the Olympic Clu”. to have Ted Pritchard fight the winf /and if he defeats Burke and comes to Ame, 4 the match may be made by the club. In the meantime Carroll proposes to tour the coun- try with his champion,‘as Stated, and make all the money he can. Dempsey’s only excuse is that he ran up against a giant. The club says the fight was not as profitable as anticipated, there being less than 2,500 people inthe house all told. Still it wasa good thing for New Orleans, nearly all the Fitzsimmons’ money being placed by local men, PRITCHARD AND FITZSIMMONS. Pritchard isthe only middleweight in the world available to meet Fitzsimmons. By his easy defeat of Jack Dempsey the Antipodean fighter has clearly demonstrated that no American in the middleweig class would have any possible chance of querigg him, as the Nonpareil is unquestionably the clev- erest and best man in his class in this coun- try. La Blanche, who probably ranks next to Dempsey among American middle-weights would be ata much greater disadvantage than the ex-champion was as the Marine is much shorter in the reach. In fact one of LaBlanche’s weakest points ts his very shortarms and he would not have the ghost of a show against the New Zealander and his tremendous reach. Ted Pritchard, Toff Wall, Jack Burke, Alf Mitchell and Al Goode have all been claiming the middle- weight championship of England, but Goode is outclassed by the others and Mitchell’s claims were dissipated _ when Ted Pritchard recently defeated him in such hollow style, for, like Dempsey with Fitzsimmons, Mitchell was never in_it and only lasted three rounds. Toff Wall is getting too old and it is doubtful whether Jack Burke can get inside the middle-weight limit and be strong. Heis now matched to fight Pritchard forthe middle-weight cham pionship, and if Pritchard wins he will be fairly entitled to claim the middle-weight championship of Great Britain. His easy victory over Alf Mitchell indicates Pritchard is a good one and if he can down Jack Burke, he is undoubtedly a great man in his class. As the English middle-weights are an untried quantity in this country, a match between Pritchard and Fitzsimmons would possess some interest in event that the former wins his fight with Burke. But even then all the Americans would now back the New Zealander, and no doubt he would win as easily as he did with Dempsey. Fitzsimmons will have to meet some of the best heavy weignts to make the battle possess any especial interest to the public, for he can un- doubtedly whip all the inferior heavy weight pugilists without any trouble. When it was suggested that he meet Jim Corbett, the Cali- fornian, Fitzsimmons replied that the latter was too big. and clever and that middle- weights were good enough for him. OLD TIME PURSES. There is a wonderful difference between fighting as a business now-a-days and in the days of yore. Then men fought for hours with the bare knuckles for stakes of $100 or $200, while now they are paid several thou- sand for a few rounds with gloves before an athletic club. Dempsey and Fitz- simmons received $12,000 for a glove fight and they are only middieweights at that. It is the largest purse ever fought for, though there is every indication that much larger sums will be of- fered_in the near future. Think of how these amounts compare with the purses given the old-time fighters. . Harry Poulson, who recently died, gave Tom Sayers one of his hardest fights. They fought 8h. and 8m., and three or four times Sayers was about beaten. It was only the indomitable pluck of Sayers that cause him to win, and the battle was for $250 a side, and Sayers never had won more than that amount, although that was nearly his last battle. If I mistake not Poulson never had won a battle for £50 or $250a side, and the fight I refer to between him and Sayers took place in 1856. I could go on giving interesting facts regarding these big battles for small stakes, battles that will be thought of as long as pugilism is talked about. But what a change? Had Sayers, Poulson or any of the famous old timers lived now and in their prime, instead of getting about $100 for fight- ing a historic battle, managers and club presidents would have been offering thou- sands of dollars to ‘‘put the gloves on fora few minutes.’’ Surely our so-called pugilists have been born in fortunate times. THE ST. LOUIS SPORTS BROKE. The sports jn St. Louis who went broke on Dempsey are legion, and their watches, dia- monds and other jewelry now seem to hold down the safes ofthe various pawnbrokers and at the same time point the moral and adorn the tale of misplaced judgment. Ever since the very hour of the announce- ment of the result of the great batttle the gentlemen who possess sport- ing procliyities have been wending their way toward the places where personal property is received as collateral for small loans. ’ There is no danbt that the 8t. Louis contin- gent backed Dempsey, They are sorry of it now, but that does not fill their pockets with the lucre that has from them forever fled. Yesterday the Broadway dealers in ‘‘an- tique’’ were busy, very busy. The sports came in twos, threes and every number. They brought articles of every description and value. Some had a watch, others had diamonds, and some had both. One pawn-broker says that he loaned at least $4,000 to sports who plunged with their all and lost, And it was not only the pool-alley - sports who went broke on the fight, but their imitators were likewise generally unfor- \ tunate. Very few St. Louis sports would back @) Fitzsimmons, and this accounts for the Wfinancial straits that exist on every side - among the short-haired fraternity. Ton’ t Forest the Great Sale.

The gentlemen of color who wear loud ties and striped pants followed the example set by the whites and backed the Nonpareil with all the ready cash they could command. The Franklin avenue pawnbrokers are conse- quently doing a rushing business. From one end of the line to the other the sports are a sad,sad lot. Their customary hilarity forthe time being has disappeared, and figurative ‘‘sackcloth and ashes’’ are common things among them. ON THE WINTER TRACKS. NEw YORK, Jan. 16.—The Innovation Stakes run Jan. lhad a sequel which was decided yesterday at Guttenburg. It was of three furlongs for colts and fillies who became two- year-olds this year. There was a false start in the race New Year’s day in which several of the youngsters covered the full course, Clotho passing under the wire first, followed by Azrael, the Clarrison filly, now called Mones Maid, being third. When the horses were brought back and sent off to a genuine start, the North Anna filly won, Refraction filly second and Clotho third. Asaresult of these perform- ances Clotho was made an odds on favorite for yesterday’s event.

Here is what a writer in Lexington. has to say in defense of the present prices of trot- ters, which have been represented to be un- warrantedly high and destined to come down: I have been at some trouble to inter- view a number of the leading dealers and breeders here on the subject. The opinion seems to prevail among well-informed horse- men that g dividuals, well bred, will sell for more money than stock ever sold for before, while the medium bred and poorly bred ones will probably go for less. One intelligent breeder puts it this way: The tendency is toward the best. The busi- ness, in my opinion, has just from its experimental state, although the breeding of trotters will always be more or less in the nature of experiment. Itis becoming more generally known that to produce a trotter it is necessary to breed in trotting lines; that is, if one wishes to take the least possible risk. The hap-hazard breeding of twenty-five years ago would not be countenanced by the veriest tyro now, forthe alm of every wide- awake maninthe businessis to breed the best, Itis this fact that keeps up the prices WE ARE AGENTS FOR THE PURINA FILTER, STEVENS FAVORITE FILTER.

No, yougg man, the busi- ness is here tostay.’’ NOT A DUDE. The reports that have been in circulation about young Elmer Railley, the turfman, being a dude and a plunger, does that young man injustice, saysa Lexington (Ky.) spec- ial. He did not buy his string of horses with money won at the pool-box. His father has been an ownerand breeder for many years, and his uncle and grandfather are among the most successful breeders inWoodford County. Elmer and his father bred and owned that great race filly, Semper Fidele, that made such a showing last season in the stable of W. R. Letcher of Richmond. That gentleman bought the filly for $10,000, and this is the money with which young Elmer has started his stable. YACHTING, Gen. Charles J. Paine, the man who built the two biggest sloop yachtsin the world, Mayflower and Volunteer, and with them de- feated the Galatea and Thistle in contests for the America’s cup, was interviewed in New York on the prospect of an international race and said: *‘I don’t think there will be any trouble about arranging a match when a challenge comes, but untilit does arrive we can only talk about it. We have always been ready to race, and we shallbe again when the time comes. Theonly thingI seein the way isthe time allowed usto prepare for a race. The deed of gift says ten months’ no- tice in writing must be given, and that the race must be sailed between May 1 and Nov. 1. Eight days of the ten months have already passed, and nochallenge has come, so the New York Yacht Club is not obliged to accept a challenge now. Ifit comes within a rea- sonable time, however, they can, by the mu- tual consent clause, waive the ten months’ time, but ifwe haveto builda big boat we want all the time we can get to build and try her.’’ Gen. Paine believes that larger single- masted yachts will be built before long, not to sail for the America’s cup—for 90 feet is the maximum length permitted by the new deed of gift—but for future racing. He says the chief trouble with a large sloop will be to get spars big enough and strong enough to carry the sail on. When asked if he intended to build another cup defender the General smilingly said: ‘‘It’s along way off yet, and I think I shall give some one else a chance this time. I hear there are several yachtsmen in New York ready to build if a challenge comes. Mr. E. D. Morganisone of them, I believe. Asto that dimension clause in the deed of gift, it could be waived as well gs the ten months’ notice.’’ ATHLETICS. Probably the most important feature of the week, asfar as pedestrianism is concerned, says Pringle, is the challenge of L. E. Meyers to Darrin, the English pedestrian, now in this country. Myers offers torun Darrin one of the following three races: A quarter, a half or three-quarters ofa mile for a stake of $5,000 a side, the winner to take the entire gate receipts. Meyers adds to his challenge the announcement that if he runs Darrin it will be his last race. Darrin, I think, igs the same young gentleman who, as Harry Smith, wanted to run any Pittsburger, about two yearsago. Since then he has been in England, and won a few races, defeating, among others, Farrell. the American. People who ought to know, state that Darrin’s best race isa half mile, and he can run, that dis- tance exceedingly well. I will not, therefore, be surprised if Darrin offers to run Myers that distance. But why should Myers fly so high as far as stakes are concerned? It may be impossible for a man like Darrin to get backing for a stake of $5,000. All pedestrians have not been as fortunate as Mr. Myers, ped I am disposed to think that if Darrin and Myers would run a race of three-quarters of a mile that Peter Priddy would join in a sweep with them for about $1,000a corner and let the winner take all the receipts. Isee no reason why Priddy should not find backing to run either Myers or Darrin, or both at once ina race of three-quarters ofa mile. At any rate, I for one would not feel disposed to call the winner of the Darrin-Myers race champion until he had defeated Priddy. a sweepstake race may be made of it, and if aes ant ee ee ear S would cer- It may be that | THINK OF IT { pacer there can be “SCOTT'S ae } Of Pure Cod Liver Oil and Hypophosphites Of Lime oat Soda bree pa aS rte: CONSUMPTION, op ag BRONCHITIS, COUGHS AND Reee a D Ne Fe Prrin OF Fae A, pte Be sure you get + Sayeed Salcsears poor re you, get “—- es It was their sixteenth twenty-one moves. game.

Joe Harris Killed by the Destroyer of His Home. CHARLOTTE, 8. C., Jan. 16.—One of the bloodiest duels that was ever fought with knives took place Wednesday afternoon eight miles from Morgantown. For some time past Joe Harris, a young man of some prominence in hiscommunity, has suspected that John Afken was too intimate with his wife. On several occasions Harris had begged Aiken to keep away from his home and had told Aiken that he was robbing him of his wife’s love and was destroying his home. To this Aiken made no reply, but continued his visits. Har- ris, seeing that Aiken did not heed his warn- ing, grew desperate and swore that he would kill Aiken on sight. Aiken was warned and up to Wednesday had been successful in evading his would-be slayer. Both men were at all times heavily armed, ready for the fight which they knew would take place sooner or later. Yesterday afternoon they metin the public road near Morgantown. Harris at once informed Aiken that one or the other must die, thathe had put up with his conduct as long as he could and that nothing but his blood would atone for the wrongs he had done. Aiken pleaded that he might have a fair chance, and tried to CHINCHILLA OVERCOATS,$15.00 (Compare them with any in this market at $20.) | Chinchilla Ulsters, wool-lined, at $6 Fine Chinchilla Reefers, $6.

This explan- ation was not at all satisfactory to Harrisand he still insisted that blood was what he wanted and must have. Harris then told Aiken that he did not want totake his life and not give hima chance. Aiken, after a short deliberation, told Harris that he was as well prepared as he would ever be and that if it must be blood he was ready. Harris drew from his pocket a long-bladed knife and made a desperate plungeat Aiken’s heart, but Aiken was on his guard, and before Har- ris could make the second effort Aiken thrust his knife uptothe handle in Harris’ heart. Harris fell tothe ground with the knife in his bosom. Harris must have died instantly, for he was not cold when found. The affair has caused an unusual amount of excitement in the community anda search party has gone out to capture the victor of the duel. ooo, 85. 75 to Chicago.

The Women Will Have a Big Majority in Favor of Their Admission as Delegates to the General Conference—A Church Dedication—Notes. The vote that is now being taken inthe M. E. Churches throughout the country on the question of admitting women to the electoral and general conferences is fast drawingtoa terminatiog. Alithe figures in thus far give the ladies a victory, and that they will event- ually there isno doubt whatever expressed at the present time. The contest throughfout has been full of interest, and those who have opposed the new power to be given women will undoubtedly be surprised to learn of their defeat. The movement of the women for recogni- tion has been going ow since 1862, when the matter was first presented to the mem- bers of -the sMethodist denomingtion and defeated by a vote of 2,884 for and 47,855 against; again in _ 1869 a vote was taken and the women carried the day, but the result was set aside by the gen- eral conference owing to the inadequacy of the vote. This time, ifthe votingis kept up to the average which it has already attained, the necessary number of votes will be ob- tained, andthe ladies will be able tocom- mand consideration. There will be much op- position to the admission of the fair sex when the general conference meets, but it is gen- erally conceded that the present representa- tive expression of opinion of the members who compose the Methodist denomination practically setties the matter. THE VOTE. The following is the vote as received at present in the West: Conferences. Iowa. Des Moines c ‘entral Missouri. Loui Bete 9 Kansas South Kansas...

For. Against. 3,836 773 T hese figures taken as a forecast of whatis tocome, gives the admissionists a decided victory. Eastern reports ofa later date put the total vote, including the above, thus far at 314,602, of which 196,928 are for admission and 117,674 against. The New York Advocate, the organ of the anti-admissionists, practically acknowledges defeat, but says that the vote that is being received is any- thing but representat4ve. Notwithstanding this the victory of the admissionists is -prac- tically a thing of record, and whether the General Conference will set aside such an ex- pression is a thing that will be settled in the future. West Church Dedication. Extensive preparations are being made for the dedication of the West Presbyterian Church Sunday afternoon at 8 o’clock. This church building costinthe neighborhood of $15,000, which speaks well for a congregation that has not been organized much more than two years. The new church is located at the corner of Maple and Maryville avenues, one block east of Hamilton avenue. The dedication of the building and the installation of the pastor, Rev. Francis L. Ferguson, will take place at the same hour, being under the auspices of the St. Louis Presbytery. Ample accommodations have been made for the large crowd thatis expected. Repre- ‘sentatives from every Presbyterian organiza- tion in the city will be present. For the benefit of down-town people the Narrow Guage train which leaves Morgan street and Vandeventer avenue ordinarily at 2:15 will be detained until 2:30. The programme to be carried out contains some excellent musical features, besides the regular dedication and installation exercises. Dr. Allen will preside and propound the constitutional questions, Dr. 8S. J. Niccolls will preach, Dr. J. H. Brooks charge the pastor, Rev. Geo. E. Martin charge the people, Rev. 8S. C. Garin will read _ scriptures and Rev. Ss. C, Palmer will close the religious exercise witn a prayer. This is the principle event in Presbyterian Church circles Sunday, said no doubt the seating capacity of the church, 450, will be fully tested, Rev. F. Ferguson the pastor is well known in St. Louis, having preached inthe Grand Avenue Prebyterian Church for six months, and occupied Dr, Nic- coll’s pulpit during the latter’s sum- mer vacation. Forfive years Mr. Ferguson was pastor of the Prytania Street Church of New Orleans and achieved considerable suc- cess in that city. Since his acceptance of the West Church’s call that organization has grown wonderfully both in numbers and interest. Many of his friends will pay hima visit to-morrow and wish him prosperity in the new building. Bishop Goodsell’s New Charge. Bishop D. A. Goodsell of the M. E. Church,. with his home at Fort Worth,“Tex., passed through St. Louis yesterday to take up his residence in China and Japan. Bishop Good- .sellis-well known in Methodist circles asa very fluent talker anda hafd worker. His trip to China,-the object of which has been kept secret, is said to be to establish a permanent bishopric in that country, should the move be considered feasible after he studies the situgtion. This plan has been complete. ‘ing, agitated in American Methodist circles for some years, and it is highly probable that at the next meeting of M. E. bishops of the United States the vacancy created by the re- moval will be filled. It is given out at the Methodist news centers that Bishop Goodsell will be only temporarily located at his new charge, but there is good reasonto believe that such is not the case. He has always shown a deep interest in foreign missionary work, and his assignment is probably the grantal of his own request. If this is correct itis hardly proba- ble that he will give up the fleld voluntarily. When seen by a Post-DISPATCH reporter the Bishop said that he was not aware himself how long he would be absent from this country; that‘it all depended upon the future actién of the resident bishops. He intimated. however, that he did not seriously expéct a recall at a very early date. ‘*There is a grand fleld for religious labors in that part of the world,’’ said he, ‘‘and I sincerely hope that results will justify this visit. Of course I cannot predict what may be the outcome, but I am still an American Bishop,’’ the gentleman added smilingly. It is not yet generally knownthat a vacancy in a bishopric is Hable to exist. Westminster’s New Pastor. Rev. W, R. Herendeen was last evening in- stalledas pastor of Westminster Presbyte- rian Church, Second Oarondelet avenue and Pestalogzi street, before a large congrega- tion. Theevent was one’containing much interest to the church-going public, and the programme was carried out to perfection. Rev. 8S. J. Niccolis preached. Dr. S.C. Palmer charged the peo- ple and Edward Cogper the pastor. Dr. Herendeen comes from the Columbus (0.) Presbytery and has made a host of friends since his arrivalin St. Louis. His work thus far has been of a very promising nature and is attracting much attention. Revival at Central Church. The revival meetings which have been in progress the past two weeks at the Central Union Church, Eleventh and Locust streets, have been the most successful series of meet- ings held since the church was established. Being the only church in the down-town dis- trict, it draws its crowds from an elment which is not, asa rule, church-going. This is the class of people evange- lists who are in earnest are most anxious to get hold of. The pastor, Rev. Wm. Johnson, is beigg assisted by Mr. 8. F. Wis- hard, the successful evangelist of Chicago, and Mr. E, V. Staley, the evangelist of this city, isalso there almost every night. Mr. Wishard is a very eloquent speakeranda profound theologian. Mr. Staley’s strength lies largely in his pathos and humor and in his magnetic personality, while both men are terribly in earnest. It is not yet decided whether the meetings willbe continued next week, but there will be one to-night, and Sunday night the services will be of a revival nature. There have beena great many con- versions. Service of Song at the Messiah. Hayden’s famous oratorio of ‘‘The Cre- ation’’ will be given in great part next Sun- day afternoon at 4 o’clock at the regular service of song of the Church of the Messiah. Nearly all the first and second parts will be sung, which includes all the famous choruses, the three beautiful trios for soprano, tenor and bass, the bass aria ‘‘Rolling in Foaming Billows;’’ the tenor aria, ‘‘In Native Worth,” and the great songs for soprano, ‘‘With Ver- dure -Clad’’ and ‘‘On Mighty Perli’’ Mr. Kroeger will conduct and play the organ and the soloists are Miss Adelaide Kalkmann. soprano; C. A. Metcalf, tenor, and A: D. Wild, basso. The chorus is the same as for the past four years, scarcely any changes having been madeinthat time. At the first song service this season Mozart’s ‘‘Requiem’’ was given, andthe choir will render selec- tions from Gounod’s ‘‘More et Vita’’ some time in Lent and give the usual Easterservice of music from ‘‘The Redeniption.’’ After Easter a new contata will be given for the first time in the West. Religious Census Figures. Superintendent Porter of the Census De- partment through H. K. Carroll, special agent for the sixth division on _ religious statistics, has just issued some very interest- ing information on the subject of strength and wealth of fourteen different religious bodies. Thisis merely ‘the first issue the re- turns from other denominations not yet being The following facts are given: United Presbyterian ‘+h of the New Jerusalem.. va =" Salvatio avons Chatetia FRE ae eee bes Evangelical Adventists Life and Advent aemeoe seventh Day Baptists jeventh Day Baptists (German) yeneral Six Principle Baptists Christian Church, h Theosophical Society..... se ate eben ie 40 Brethren in Christ. . 63 It will be seen that the United Presbyterian Church is in the lead. of all those given. The Salvation Army shows up rather surprisingly. The Advent Christians, as will be seen by the figures, are gaining dily in numbers. A Possible tion. Rev. 0. A.
