Agents of the Former Country Buying Arms in New York. 9 LORD SALISBURY MAKES AN IMPORTANT ’ POLITICAL SPEECH AT CAMBRIDGE. The Liberal Victory in the Hartlepool Election—Appalling Accounts of Desti- tution in England — Landlords and Evicted Irish Tenants—Parnell and His Opponentse—The Pope and Dr. Wind- horst—Foreign News. New Tonk, Jan. 22.—The officers of the Guatemalan Army fre now here purchasing arms and ammunition,anda third representa- tive of the same Government is here buying, horses that, from the standard fixed, will be just suited for cavalry and field artillery ser- vice. The officers’ mission appears to more than threaten that the peace so recently es- tablished between Guatemala and Salvador is to be broken. It is practically an indication of war, and already the preparationsof the Government of Guatemala have been ac- cepted by those aware ofthem asa warning that with the opening of spring one more effort will be made towrest from Salvador the independence for which she fought so longand hard. March is the time fixed by people acquainted with the peculiarities of the two countries for beginning of hostilities. A letter received here, dated Dec. 5, confirms the rumors of war. Jam sorry to inform you,“ says the writer, ‘‘that peace in this unfortunate coun- try will be destroyed inthe near future, and that the late war with Salvador will be re- newed. The Government is endeavoring to prepare itself for the struggle which, on some pretext or other, will be begun in March next, as soon as the harvesting of the coffee crop is ended.’’ CONFIRMATORY EVIDENCE. Confirmatory evidence of Guatemala’s war- like intention was given when Col. Aguilas, one of the best artillery officers in the Guatemalan service, and Gen. Reyna Barrios, nephew of the late President or Dictator of Guatemala, ar- rived in New York, the acknowledged agents of their government, and as quickly as possi- ble began the actual purchase of rifles, side- armsand ammunition. Within a few days Senor Melgarejo, another agent of the Gov- to buy horses for a government bus line, but he wants singularly good animals for the work, and those up to his requirements will not be hard to convert into chargers. One more Guatemalan has arrived, but there is more mystery about his mission than about the objects of the others. He is Senor Jose Masamayo, and is connected with the diplo- adjustment of the differences between the United States and Guatemala, resulting from the murder of Gen. Barrundia on an American vessel by Guatemalan officers. Until a very short time ago Gen. Barrios was an exile from his native country and lived in the Pacific Coast States. His selection as agent in so important a matter as the secret equip- ment of the Guatemalan army is regarded as a stroke of diplomacy on the part ‘of President Barrilas. Barrios had been so long away from Guatemala that the } friends of Salvador had ceased to watch his movements. Whenit was first made known that he had made extensive purchases of firearms it was generally supposed that he movements common in Spanish America. Col. Agullas remained in the background until they were well away from the Pacific Coast. Since they have been in New York they have been together most of the time, and together have made several purchases of arms in this city. What they have bought in other cities none but the agents and the Gua- temalan Government can tell. They have spent a large sum of money on rifles, pistols and ammunition, but the transactions bave been of such a charactor as to excite no sus- picion inthe military mind as to the extent of their purchases. Five hundred or 1,000 rifles for a government almost always at war did not attract much attention.. PREPARATIONS FOR WAR. When it was known, however, that a num- ber of consignments have been made from New York alone, and the possibilities of ship- ments of equal size from San Francisco, Bos- ton, Philadelphia, New Orleans and other points were considered, the suspicion grew that Guatemala was secretly buying 4 great many more instruments of war than a coun- try at peace or even inthe ordinary turmoil of Central American politics had any use for. There is more than a suspicion now, and though the operations of Gen. Barrios and Col. Aguilas are still conducted secretly, it is known as a fact that Guatemala is equipping a large army and making every 32 atlon for a war that can with only one of her 6 Dealers in and manufacturers of the supplies that Guatemala is now so quietly and rapidly 5 : 53 8 28 aa Te 5 1 4 E ae 5 * N One es 9 : 1 N . = Rs: EF ö we f 7 ' „ * 1 1 * 7 3 we 2 * , g * * * ö ‘ *. < a 2 ernment arrived.

Coming just at the open- ing Of Parliament. the victory gives an, impulse of encouragement, which the II- derals have badly needed, and will 5 more aggressive and assertive. The Tories who have been discounting defeat for some time cannot conceal their disappointment * the result indicates the probable result in other Liberal-Unionist constitueneies, with - out whose ald the Tories cannot keep control ot the Government. The Times and — claim this morning that the Hartlepool elet- tion was decided on the eight hour and other issues, and that home rule had no part in it, APPALLING DESTITUTION IN ENGLAND. . Loxpox, Jan. 22.—Appalling accounts of destitution continue to come in. In the East District of Wolverhampton the charity officer reparts that the peo- ple are in a state of starvation, that in some instances it is actually danger- ous toadminister food, owing to the peril of ravenous hunger when food is first A clergyman says it is impossible to describe the misery that prevails. ‘‘Homes are ae out fire, the rooms without furniture, the women have only a single garment covering them, and thechildren are almost as bad.’ A good deal of misery in Birmingham and other places is due to work being cut of by the new American tariff. In Lon- don the verdict of death from starvation is returned m numerous cases. Some laborers who applied to a magistrate for relief said they had sold even their boots for bread. In many years there has not been a more ter- rible winter for the poor; and yet meres full of charitable societies. ; WHAT GLADSTONE SAYS. Mr. Gladstone in telegraphing a reply to a correspondent who had questioned him as to the Significance of the Hartlepool election, said: The Hartlepool elec- tion is from the time and circumstances by far the most important since 1886. The limits of a telegram preclude the moving of my full meaning, but all must seethat the simple figures, as taken offthe poll, reduce todust and ashes the declaration of Lord Salisbury, Sir Henry James, Mr. Goshen and the Duke of Westminster,upon what they call cent events.. THE BMPLOYERS’ LIABILITY BILL. LONDON, Jan. 22.—-The employers’ liability bill, to be urged in Parliament by the repre- sentatives of labor, will contain a provision making it impossible for workingmen to con- tract themselves out of its provisions. The miners declare that they will cl watch the course of members of Parliament on this g labor. THE DUKE OF BEDFORD’S SUICIDE. LONDON, Jan, 22.—It isnow known tha Duke of Bedford, who died recently, ted suicide by putting a bullet through hig head. The fact was concealed at first by the Coroner and Commissioner of Police, but it finally leaked out. The papers had all eulo- gized him for his wit and brilliancy, but most * ot them have refrained from publishing the | fact of the suicide. The coroner’s jury has found that the Duke of Bedford shot himself through the heart while temporarily insane. There is still much mystery about the suicide. GEN. BOOTH’S REQUEST REFUSED. LONDON, Jan. 22.—Mayor Savory refuses to grant the request of Gen. Booth that the homeless poor be permitted to sleepin the municipal buildings. The Mayor says he be- lieves existing agencies adequate forthe re- lief of distress and thatthe police deny the General’s statements regarding outcasts. Landlords and Evicted Tenants. DUBLIN, Jan, 22—Many of the evicted Irish tenants who have surrendered to their land- lords had been without a remittance from the National League for three months. To some of them Mr. Wm. O’Brien had written that checks would arrive, but the checks never 72 <<: 3 * ee * sak came. The landlords are treating the ten- ants with some generosity. In several in- stances in Tipperary tenants had abandoned valuable properties where they paid only a nominal ground rent, the improvements hav- ing been made by them. One tenant, for instance, paid an annual ground rent of 40. All have been allowed to re-occupy on pay- ment of the old rent and in some cases of much less. The agrarian aspect League agitation seems to be out of sight. 25 sia Abe 1 of the.

Reaasembling of Parliament. Lorpon, Jan. 22.—Parliament assembled to- Gay with a scanty attendance. During the course of the early business in the House Mr, Parnell gave notice that he would call atten- tion to-morrow tothe administration of the crimes act, and would offer a resolu- the Government to discussion of the subject. Mr. Justin McCarthy and Mr. Thos. ‘Sexton introduced Sir John Pope-Hennessy, the new Nationalist member for North Kil- kenney, who recently defeated Mr. Vincent Scully, Mr. Parnell’s candidate for that seat. Sir John was greeted with long and loud Liberal and anti-Parnell cheers, The Par. nellites made no counter demonstration, Forty Miners Killed Outright. Br.

Members Vote With the Republicans on That Motion— The Struggle in Kansas Republicans in Kansas Anxious for Ingalls’ With- drawal. SPRINGFIELD, Ill., Jan. 22.—In the joint ses - sion yesterday the presentation ot Farmer Streeter’s name by Representative Cockrell did not arouse any enthusiasm. The labor agitators and the supporters of the F. M. B. A. faction did not even condescend to ap- plaud the eloquence of the agricultural representative.’’ Gov, Fifer and ‘‘Long’’ Jones were attentive spectators. The latter was yery busy during the balloting, commu- nicating with the Republican members. Rep- resentative Jones of Sangamon, in present- ing the name of Gen. John M. Palmer, made what was considered as the best speech. Morris, the colored member from Cook County, proved an effective speaker, and was more heartily applauded than any of the others. AN AMUSING INCIDENT. There was an amusing incident when the roll was called, Mr. Keller, who made the opening address for Gen, Oglesby, inadvert- ently said ‘‘Jonn M. Palmer,’’ and then changed to Oglesby in the midst of great applause from the Democratk side. It took a full minute to restore or- der and to permit the gentleman from Macon to say with emphasis to the clerk: desire to be re- corded as voting for. Richard J. Oglesby.’’ Just ahead of him on the list came the names of Jansen, Johnston and Jones, all of whom voted for John M. Palmér, and the expression was unconsciously re- peated by him when his name was called. He John M. Palmer. scared the mem- bers of the Republican Steering Committee out of their boots, Messrs. Patridge, Paddock and Prince being momentarily paralyzed. Within a few minutes Judge Kirby very nearly committed the same blunder, but saved him- self in time, the Democrats calling out: Tou can’t help it boys: let's make it unanimous.’’ The incident was a source of amusement and encouragement to the friends of Palmer. Mr. Cockrell in his speech had said to the Democrats directly that he and his friends were in favor ofthe protection of American labor against the pauper labor of Europe. Of course the Republicans cheered heartily. Mr. Cockrell continuing his sentence and turning to the Republican side, added that ‘‘if there is to be a continuance of high tariff and taxes and a bolstering of monopolies and combinations to the detriment of the pro- duct we farmers must also be in favor of free trade.’’ That set the Democrats wild,a num- ber ofthem standing up while they swung their hats and threw newspapers into the air and yelled themselves hoarse, chaffing the Republicans with ‘‘How do you like it now?’’ The story circulated last evening that there is a bargain between the three F. M. B. A. and the Democrats by virtue of which twoof the former are to vote for Palmer to-morrow, found little credence to-day and was gener- ally denied in a very emphatic manner. TO-DAY'’S PROCEEDINGS. There is a surplusage here of moneyed men from Chicago, who are interested in different ways in the election of United States Senator. The sporting fraternity are beginning to talk money, and in one or two in- stances, it has been put up on Palmer against the fleld. Since the beginning there have been whisper- ings in regard to two men on theRepublican side who are very much opposed to Oglesby, and while they have so far voted for him, itis affirmed by the Democrats that Representatives Hum- phrey and Knopf may at the proper time . conclude to vote for Richard J. Oglesby, Palmer. On the other hand, the Re- publicans claim that their ranksare solid against Palmer. Almost the entire morning was consumed in the House in a discussion on Dr. Wilkins’ resolution, which was a special order. The resolution provided for a special committee of five to investigate charges against the Southern [Illinois Hospital for the Insane, The Republicans made a fight to have it re- ferred to the Stand- ing Committee on Public Charities af - ter a heated debate, lasting an hour and Au half and during the reading t a long statement reciting the rottenness of the institution a , Compromise was agreed on. The com- mittee of fiVe was stricken out and the matter was referred A. J. Streeter. to the Committee on public charities. The Democrats sup- ported andthe Republicans opposed as un- constitutional a resolution offered hy Mr. Cockrell, F. M. B. A., for the appointment of | arecord clerk, which was warmly fought over. Ot the other F. M. B. A. members, Mr, Moore voted against Mr. Cockrell and Mr. Taubeneck refused to vote at all. The Demo- crates were hardly unanimous and the reso- lution was defeated. IN JOINT SESSION. ‘In the joint session one ballot was taken which showed a straight party vote, and the result was the same as for the three ballots taken yesterday. On Mr. Taubeneck's motion to adjourn, the Republicans voted with the three F. M. B. A. men, making 108 to. 101, and the convention adjourned till to-morrow, Torxka, Kan., Jan. 22.—Ingallsis still hope- * ~ * 1 7 him * N 9 aa? pf ee a * 4 2 8 el > ga ey: The Representatives the People’s party were elected upon the ex- Dress issue of opposition to Senator 80 we should not like to be held responsible for the consequences.

While | we are in favorof peaceful methods and of submission to the willof the people as ex- | pressed at the polls, when that willis so ex- pressed and men prove traitors to their con- stituents we no longer counsel toleration. This condition will de the end of hope for the peaceful solution of public questions, and the consequences will rest with the corruption- ists and their hired Hessiang,’’ The Republican leaders are counting on the inability of the Alliance members to agree upon a candidate of their own and think that after while they will get tired wrangling among themselves and that enough of them will then support Ingalls to elect him with the votes of the Republicans. Among the new candidates brought out yeste in op- position to Ingalls are ex-Goy, St. John, the Prohibitionist; Gen. C. W. Blair, an ex*Union soldier and a Democrat; Col. W. A. Harris of Leavenworth, Congressman Davis and O. M. Scott, State Lecturer of the Alliance. : MUST WITHDRAW. The Republican caucus last evening was far from satisfactory to the Ingalls managers. The caucus was informed by Chairman Bu- chanan that Ingalls would arrive Friday, so they decided not to adopt any course until after his arrival. Many Republicans are openly declaring that Ingalls must withdraw from the contest and leave the way clear for some other Republican to represent the party in the Senate; most of the Bepublican members admit that such a policy, if adopted a month ago, would have resulted successfully, but say that it is now too late. When Ingalls arrives to-morrow some of them will insist upon his withdrawal, It is not unlikely that his name will never be mentioned in the Legislature and that some other Republican will be brought out and an attempt made to get Alliance votes for him.

LINCOLN, Neb., Jan, 22,—The joint conven- tion of Legislature met to hear the election contest case this morning, but at once tooka recess until 2 p. m., when the decision of the Supreme Court on the legality of the proceedings was formally delivered. The court holds that the signature sof Gov- ernor and Lieutenant-Governor to the con- currence resolution are necessary to make the acts of the joint convention valid. This will necessitate the passage of a new concur- rent resolution, which will delay the hearing of the contest at least one week. N THE MINNESOTA LEGISLATURE, Sr. Paul, Minn., Jan. 22.—In the House this morning Mr. Kendall offered qa joint resolu- tion memorializing Congress in favor of the construction of a canal in NewYork at Niagara Falls, the passage of the Payne bil for that purpose being urged in the interests ofthe commercial and agricultural inter- ests of the West and the military and industrial interests of the whole country.

The question being on the app i of the journal Mr. Aldrich proceeded teaddress the Senate. He said that the journadisclosed the fact that it was the determined policy of the Democratic Senators to prevent iny legislation or action unless their wishes.as to certain measures should be acceded to. The action of the minority was revoluionary and would be re- sisted. Mr. Stewart mquſ for the Senate to vt Mr. Aldrich replie| that that was 4 ques- tion he did not unqrstand, but that it was clearly the right of he Senate to change its rules, He then weft on to enumerate the important bills penling in the Senate which must be passed befſre the 4th of March. Mr. Harris saidjthat unanimous content would be given the Democratic side to proceed to the copideration of app¥opria- tion bills or any of{he Bilis mentioned by Mr. Aldrich, : Mr. Aldrich: ‘‘Tint istexactly what I have said. If we yiel¢ to the dictation of the minority and let itsay what legislation shall thing ts all right.“ be considered, eve h had concluded his re- d whether it wag proper te its own rules. When Mr. Ald marks he moved t the Sepate proceed to the consideratim of his resolution for a change of the rules. A point of order was made that the unfin- ished business was the motion to correct Tuesday’s journal. The Vice-President said he would hear argument and discussion proceeded on that point. Mr. Stewart argued strongly on the Democratic side. The Vice-President ruled tnat Mr. Aldrich’s motion to proceed to the consideration of the closure rule was ih order and overruled the point of order that the question before the Senate was to correet Tuesday's journal. Mr. Harris appealed from the decision, but the chair was sustained, yeas, 85; nays, 30, Teller, Wolcott and Stewart voting with the Democrats. Mr. Aldrich moved to proceed to consider his resolution and Mr. Gorman moved to table it. The Vice-President submitted the question to the Senate and a vote was taken. The vote resulted, yeas, 30; nays, 35. So the motion to table was lost and the vote was then taken on Aldrich’s motion to consider the closure rue. The roll call was suspended on Ransom’s point of order that the journal of Tuesday showed that the matter had already been taken up. The Chair overruled the point of order, andthe Demo- crats took an appeal, which was voted upon. The appeal was defeated and the Chair sustained, yeas, 86; nays, 27, whereupon Gorman made the further point of order that Aldrich’s motion must be in writing. The vice-president sustained this point and Aldrich wrote out his motion. Ald- rich’s motion prevailed: Yeas, 86; nays, 32. Mr. Jones of Nevada joined with the Demo- crats in opposing it. g THE HOUSE. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 722.—At the con- clusion of the prayer in the House to-day Mr. Rogers of Arkansas raised the point that no quorum was present. The Speaker counted 163 members and directed the clerk to read the journal. While the clerk was reading, Mr. Enloe of Tennessee questioned the cor- rectness of the Speaker’s count. The Speaker: ‘‘The chair overrules the sug- gestion and the clerk will proceed. Mr. Enloe: ‘*Then I appeal.’’ The Speaker: There is no appeal what- ever. CANNON’S RESOLUTION, WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 22.—Representa- tive Cannon yesterday introduced a resolu- tion in the House providing that Saturday next at4o’clock, unless the legislative ap- propriation bills shall have been reported to the House by the Committee of the Whole, the committee shall be discharged from its further consideration with all amendments pending thereto and the previou question to de considered as or dered. The resolution also provides tha on Wednesday next unless the naval appropriation bill shall have been reported to the House, the previous question ig to be considered as ordered at 4 o’elock,.

C., Jan. 29.—The special House Committee on the Silver Pool this morning examined Senators Stewart, Teller and Wolcott. They denied all knowledge of a pool. E. N. Hill and James A.

SPRINGFIELD, III., Jan. 22.—John R. Tan- ner, whose name has been mentioned in con- nection with the silver pool, says he has no knowledge of the pool and never heard of it until he read of it in the newspapers some months ago. He never heard the names of any members of Congress mentioned in con- nection with it. He will start for Washington in a day or two in response to a summons to appear and testify before the House Investi- — gating Committee. LITTLER PROMISES REVELATIONS. CuicaGo, Ill., Jan. 22.—David T. Littler, in an interview, questioned the existence of a silver pool. He said, however, that was going to Washington to testify before the Investigating Committee, To use his own} words, ‘‘I’ll rip some dt those rascals up the back when I go before that committee.

Miss Stella Groomes, the 15-year-old girl who was reported missing from 2119 South Broadway, has returned and, with her réeap- pearance, a story most shocking comes to light. The girl disappeared together with an old friend, Miss Belle Jones, aged 18, of Iron- toh, a small town in the southeastern part of the State. Miss Groome is not what might be called unsophisticated, but almost her entire life has been spent in a country town, and she is not acquainted with the ways of a city. She has no mother and has noone but a father and friends to warn her against the ways of the world. While fairly honest, straightforward a good complexion, her cannot be compressed one word beautiful. But she is pretty and has attracted the attention whose is known, ofa railroad man name Sunday afternoon Miss Jones paid her friend an appointment with two raliroad men. BEGUILED AWAY FROM HOME.

A STRUGGLE FOR HONOR. This scared meso badly that I Jamped up and ran to the door, when he caught and held me. Westruggied back and forth over the room, but he soon began to fear that the noise would attract attention and desisted. He pulled out his watch,saying it was half past 9, and that he would give me half an hour to make up my mind. But he did not keep his word, as before ten minutes had elapsed, while I was standing by the bed he pushed me down. Then I had to exert my entire strength to defend myself. Owing to the that one of his arms was injured he was unable tooverpower me. Once he threatened to choke the life out of meifI did not yield. Heseemed to be in earnest, and I was very much frightened. Again and he would curse me and say he was going to oke my life out, and once he did choke me tilI feft faint and dizzy. But I grabbed him by the hair, and he desisted. The time must have passed slowly, as it seemed months to me. I could not count the time and was sureI would faint every min- ute. I had to try and keep myself from faint- ing, asInow knew the object of the man. Finally, however, he pulled out his watch and saidit was after 12 o’clock, and pulled out his pistol and pointed it at me. I began to ery and heslapped me. He then attacked me again, whereupon I scratched his face with my finger nails until the blood ran down . m me. He left about 1 o’clock in the morning, I was ashamed to come home after this occurred, and we stayed over in East St. Louis until yesterday; when Belle and I started home. * A sealed verdiet returned about 9 o'cloex * For To Morro, Frida, oly n 500 dozen Ladies’ imported brolcen stripe Cotton Hosiery, all regular made, double heeis and toes, warranted fast colors; worth 25c pair.

I tell you one thing, Doctor,’* said Wm. A. Walter, the subject of the first public ex- periment with the Koch curative lymph in St. Louls, as Dr. Max OC. Starkloff bent over his bed in Ward No. 10 of the Missouri Pacific Hospital this morning, ‘‘I don’t likea diet confined to toast and boiled eggs as a steady thing. I want some meat!’’ The. physician laughed at his patient’s hankering after the flesh pots of Egypt.“ **You know we're afraid to give you anything that’s difficult to ‘digest, Walter, he said apologetically. ‘‘We want to keep you in first-class trim so that the lymph experiment will have full play in your case.’’ That's all very well, responded Walter hungrily, ‘‘but I don't get any cod liver oil now, and I feel rather empty.’’ THE PATIENT TO-DAY. The patient into whose back one millimeter of the Koch lymph had been injected yester- day forenoon and upon whom at the present time the eyes of the public are fastened with the most intense interest sat, propped up in his hospital cot with pillows, the gray light of a wintery day outside coming through the two windows at either side of his bed. He wore a blue quilted smoking jacket, his face was freshly washed, hishair neatly brushed back from his brow. He locked a trie worn and haggard, however, and his eyes showed more indications of the terrible disease from which he is trying to escape, than was apparent during the progress of the lymph inoculation yesterday. Upon the little table within reach of his hand, with the book opened and laid upon its face, was the story of ‘‘The Regent’s Daugh- ter, by Alexander Dumas, which Walter had been reading when Dr. Starkloff and the Post-DISPATCH reporter entered. Almost touched by the open book was a small bottle, with a metallic stopper screwed tightly over the mouth, and containing a grayish, half-transparent substance with lit- tle black spots of matter scattered through it and a light scum formed on the top. It was the sputum coughed up by the patient during the night and morning which was being kept for microscopic examination. Anopen gold watch also lay on the table, and several other books were placed there where the patient could easily reach them. Held by a clip-file hung from the foot of the bed was a long sheet of white paper containing the observations of the pa- tient’s pulse and temperature, taken every hour since the lymph inoculation yesterday morning, and on another bed in the room lay Walter’s valise in which he had brought the articles of clothing necessary during his stay at the hospital. THE SECOND INOCULATION. The second inoculation of the Koch lymph had just been made, the exact time of the op- eration to-day being 9:15 a.m. One and a half millimeters of the pure lymph ina solu- tion of the same proportions as that of yes- terday had formed this second dose, and the operation was performed by Drs. Starkloff and Vasterling. The spot selected for the in- sertion of the needle was one inch lower than the place of yesterday’s in- jection, but in a line directly beneath. The operation was performed at an earlier hour than was originally intended, owing to the fact of noreaction having followed the first injection. The doctors found out this morning what caused my feeling as if little bubbles were forming under the skin of my back, said young Walter to the Post-DISPATCH reporter. If you'll look there now Dr. Starkloff will show you the reason.’’ THE LYMPH ERUPTION. One glance atthe bare back revealed the first palpable effects of the Koch lymph in- oculation, asthus outlined by the ‘‘inocu- ture made by the needle of the Koch syringe the skin showed a red, feverish flush, deepened considerably ‘from the first faint tinge of that hue which followed yesterday’s injection. Then, spread- ing out from this central symptom of irritation, was a plainly preceptible erup- tion on the skin, covering a circumference of at least fourinches. Theskin puffed up in minute spots as though from the pressure of some foreign liquid between it and the flesh, and was of a flushed and feverish appearance, plainly contrasting with the normal color of that portion of the back mot yet affected. The eruption resembled somewhat that caused by prickly heat. It's a good sign, said Dr. Starkloff, and the eruption will probably spread over the entire back.’’ It itches every now and then, remarked Walker, reaching his hand back to the spot of the irritation, ‘‘and it feels exactly like it was going through the process seen when you lay a sheet of paper down on a wet surface and air bubbles get under it and puff it up in places. I first felt it about 8 o’clock last night. It is a very peculiar sensation, I can tell you, and I was sure there was some sort ofan eruption under the skin which. would finally show itself. Now it has done so. EFFECTS OF THE INJECTION. was unable to sleep much last night, be- cause the doctors had to take my tempera- ture and pulse every hour. I would mo sooner drop off to sleep than I would have to wake up again for that pur pose, and I was never go strangely drowsy in my life. It must have been caused by the lymph, as I have been used to staying awake of nights owing to coughing spells, and generally find it hard to sleep once being awakened. But, last night, I couldn’t keep this morning I felt the unconquerable desire for sleep. I do not feel it to-day, how- ever, but Iam feeling wearied and worn out. I had breakfast about 8:30 o’clock; buttered toast and boiled eggs. For supper last night I had the same and a little mush and milk. I greatly, because I am in up, gpg if I shouldn't be able to eat any- “The sensation of being ‘inoculated with the lymph is not very marked, I hardly felt the needle yesterday when it pierced my back. IthinkI felt the injection as it was forced from the syringe into my back, but it Was just for a flash of time and then There have deen no sensationg or symptoms since I was inoculated with the lymph, save this itching of the back, and the great drowsiness last night.

There has been very little published about Koch lymph in this. country that I have not read, and 1 would like to say right here that I have found more satisfactory accounts inthe Post-Dis- PATCH than in any other paper I have seen. The Post-DIsPaATcH has been in the lead on this subject all the way through and in addition has given such full accounts of all experiments and their results thatI have learned more about the Koch remedy from it than from any other source, You can easily understand that I was vitally interested in the subject. As soon as I saw, also inthe PoOsT-DISPATCH, that Dr. Starkloff was to re- ceive some of the pure lymph from Berlin, Iat once offered myself as a subject, and was extremely glad that they accepted me for the first experiment.’’ TO-DAY’S DEVELOPMENTS. At 11 o’clock this mornifig Dr. P. F. Vaster- ling, first house physician of the Missouri Pa- cific Hospital, made a microscopic examina- tion of the sputa coughed up by the patient during the night. It was found. as was that of yesterday, filled. with the deadly bacili tuberculosis.

Drs. Starkloff and Outten have already in view-a second patient for their experiments with the lymph, an inmate of the hospital, whoisinan advanced stage of consumption: A most careful examination will be made of the patient, however, before the experiment is made, as itis feared he is too far gone to be benefited by the remedy. LYMPH COULDN'T SAVE HIM. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Jan. 22.—Charles ry ik Luder, a poet who wrote for Scribner's, the , Atlantic „Li and Puck, died yesterday at the University Hospital. His lungs were affected, and when his case was considered almost hopeless, he was treated according to the Koch method. The lympth could not, however, restore the lost tissue, and the man died.

His Suit With Bishop Hogan Given Up by the Plaintiff on Mis Pleading of Rights Under Canon Law-—The Relation of Bishop and Priest Explained—Why He Remains in Possession of the Village Church. Itis now generally believed that Father Hynes will not be given a hearing by the Archbishop, and that his application fora writ of mandamus against Bishop Hogan of Kansas City will be utterly ignored. The brief of Father Hynes was filed Dec. 15, but as he was excommunicated from the church and priesthood by Bishop Hogan for insubordination the Archbishop felt that he could not recognize Father Hynes as a priest, ‘and consequently could not listen to him, as none but the clergy can have business with the Metropolitan. Father Hynes wanted to secure a copy of the act or order on which he based his authority to suspend him and later to excommunicate him, as he wanted to prove by canon law that Bishop Hogan is clearly in error and overreached himself when he took the step. Having satisfied himself thatthe Bishopis clearly in error, Father Hynes has paid no attention to either the order of suspension or excommunication and continues to celebrate mass and solemnize marriage and baptize. This, in the eyes of the church, is a most un- holy performance and a sacrilege, yet no at- tempt has been made to put a stoptoitor give the mana hearing, who claims God as nis judge in standing firm to his principles and conscience. The case is treated as a matter entirely between Bishop Hogan and Father Hynes, and from the aspect of the case it would appear that the church, having given the Bishop the official authority of ex- communicating, is satisfied with his action and his own judgment. FATHER HYNES’ POSITION. Father Hynes then is made the plaintiff in the case and recognizing this has begun a proceeding which may take months to reach a conclusion. Having left the matter in the hands of the Arch- bishop thirty days as required by the canon law in such cases, and receiving no word, he will now appeal to Rome, to the Ecclesiastt- cal Court, the highest court of justice in the Church. There he will either be reinstated as a priest for the purpose of trial, as he can- not be heard asa citizen or an ex-communi- cant, or the court will also ignore him. If tried and the court sustains the Bishop, he will very likely take off the robes of his office and callin and give up his church and if ignored he wi probably continue on in the even tenor of his way, believing himself a priest and officiating as such outside the folds of the church and independent of it.

Father Hynes has written a letter in which he corrects several statements made in his case and explains the Incident of an attempt to evict him from his church in Peirce City. The letter reads as follows: To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: In your issue of Tuesday, Jan. 20, there pears an article on my case for which I vou. oe article is fair and without dice. A few 8 have, — bel . crept into it, but these have their scource canon ap- one statement, however, I should like to see corrected; it is a statement of fact. It is stated in the article of Tuesday, and was also stated ina previous issue and has often been made elsewhere, that when Bishop Hogan commenced ejectment pro- geedings against me I produced in court a personal mortgage; and thus defeated the Bishop’s suit; Th report has been indus- triously noised abroad ior the purpose of les- sening the important resuits of that suit. If it were not for this, thestatement should re- main without challengeor contradiction, for it requires but the merest tincture of the law te know that such a statement is what in the language of the ancients would be called —beans. And while I am on this question per- mit me, through your columns, to contradict another fabaceous statement that has been made. It has often been said thatI raised a constitutional question out of the old Drake constitution. I did no such thing. The truth of the matter is this: All church property in this land is held by the bishops of the diocese in fee. Bishop Hogan, like other bishops, claimed thaphe was the owner of the prop- erty. That the bishop was landlord and the priest of a parish was his tenant. That the bishop as !andlord had the right and power to eject from his parish any priest without or hindrance as his Lordship’s tenant. of whigh positionsI denied and controyerted, holding that the bishop was merely trustee, nothing more; that the priest in charge is a beneficiary of the trustee and cannot without just and legal Cause be de- prived of his beneficiary interest. This was undoubtedly the theory of the church in early ages, under the Roman power, when she first acquired temporal possessions. The Roman law did not pass away with the Roman Empire. The church canonized it. The church has used it throughout all ages; the greater part of Christendom used it for many ages. The positionIhave assumed is undoubtedly the theory of the law, as it is the theory ot the Canons. I could not, there- fore, feel less than confident that, in an un- prejudiced country like this, if the question should reach a final hearing, a decision would be rendered confirming the position I as- sumed, my position being the theory of the law;the slow development evolved out of justice, equity andthe nature of things by right reason. But the question did not reach a final hear - ing. Bishop Hogan withdrew his suit of his own motion. The case was in court during four terms, The papers in the case with our pleadings are on file in the Jasper County Court. A. M. J. HYNEs. St. Patrick's Parish House, Peirce City, Mo., Jan. 21, 1891, THE CIVIL AND CANON LAW. Father Hynes in his letter does not expiain wherein the Bishop erred in first suspending and then excommunicating him. That is also a matter of canon law which law is seldom used outside the church, though Father Hynes hoped to base his defense on them in the civil court the suit brought against him by the bishop. Father Hynes also withholds his intentions should he fail to get a hearing, but. he has stated on a previous occasion that the case will not rest until it has reached the court kt Rome.

The right kind of a committee can Sol- leet some very interesting facts bearing on this question and showing that consider- able sums of the people’s money, which ought to go into the public treasury, go into politics and into the pockets of polit- ical henchmen. It will find that a great and necessary reform was consummated in the case of every office in which our present law allows the incumbent a fixed compen- sation and requires him to turn in to the public revenues the fees imposed by law. It will find that there are still offices to which this wholesome reform should be extended both for economy’s sake and for the further redemption of our polities from machine rule and bossism. It may not be expedient to abolish the fee method of compensating such service as the Notary Public or the Justice of the Peace renders. Butitis the well tested, long established and universally approved policy of the State to treat as part of the public revenue all taxes imposed by the State on the people for specific services rendered by its agents. The fees paid by the coal oil men for inspection are charged to their customers, and when the oil is in- spected and the fees collected by a clerk who works for salary there is no good rea- son why these fees, amounting to many times his salary, should be diverted from the public treasury into the pockets of some politician who is only nominally the inspector. 4, 2 os — 1 * A SPOILS INDICTMENT. The movement to transfer the control of the Indians from the Interior to the War Department is not based upon a belief that the military authorities are more com- petent to deal with the Indians than civilian officials. Were the conditions of service similar in both departments the balance of argument would lie on the side of the civil arm of the Government as the better fitted to train and educate the In- dians for peaceful pursuits. But the conditions are not similar, In the War Department there is permanence of tenure and disciplinary methods which contribute to the faithful discharge of duty and stimulate the desire for honorable records in public service. It is recognized that, despite disadvantages in many re- spects,the military arm will reap the bene- fit of experience and of stable control in the management of the Indians. On the other hand, in the Interior Department, by the present system of change with every administration, the Indians are taken in charge every four years of a new set of men, who get agency positions as the rewards of partisan service. Thus not only is there strong temptation to dishonesty and many chances of mistake in the selection of men, but under the best circumstances a lack of permanence and experience which render a high degree of efficiency impossible. The Indian situation, therefore, which involves so much bloodshed, expense and humiliation, is, above all things, another impressive indictment of the spoils system, which is the cause of more corruption in politics and inefficiency in the public service than any other element of our po- litical methods. _ une 1 t „ ** — . CLAUS SPRECKEIS has cornered the en- tire crop of Java sugar, the only crop likely to compete with his Sandwich Island sugar when the duty is wiped out by the McKinley bill next April. He and the New York Sugar Trust, under its New Jersey charter and new name, will then divide the country between them and have a monopoly of the refined sugar market as powerful and profitable as they had under the old tariff. Should an export tax on West India sugar take the place of the duty we have taken off, CLAUs will have as great an advantage over the New York concern as he had in the special exemption of Sandwich Island sugar from impost. But neither will suffer under the McKin- ley tariff. They will in any event pocket a large part of the $55,000,000 of revenue from sugar which our Government sur- renders. Whether the people will get enough of it in the form of cheaper sugar to compensate them for the new sugar bounties they will have to pay, is yet to be determined. 1 SPEAKER REED is again ruthlessly using his arbitrary power to pré@yent consider- ation of a free coinage bill sent to the House from the Senate.

THE PEOPLE’§ FORUM. — 3 Bs The Mutilation of the Trees. To the Editor of the Pus · Dispatch; The season is at hasd when the tree fiends, the men who make a business of mutilating our shade trees, willcommence their diaboli- cal work, and unless people can be made to comprehend the more than folly of permitting it, the work of destruction will go on until there will not be a decent tree left within the city limits outside of the parks. Does it not seem strange that citizens pos- sessing ordinary intelligence could be per- suaded to intrust the care of their trees to men having little judgment and less taste, and whose highest ambition is greed, think- ing little and caring less forthe damage they may do, If I had a park of trees that needed prun- ing and the alternative were presented of awarding the contract for the work to such men or toacycione, I would at once enter into negotiation with the cyclone. A little pruning is sometimes necessary but this indiscriminate lopping off of all the branches of the trees destroys their beauty, retards their growth and leaves them—if not killed outright—to grow up the gnarled, deformed, unsightly thing that we see every- where along our thoroughfares, a disgrace to the streets and a reproach te those who have unwillingly been duped into paying for their destruction. In conclusion, I would earnestly recom- mend better protection to the bodies of the trees and that the pruning be confined mainly to the dead branches and such of the lower ones as are liable to obstruct the street or sidewalk, leaving the balance to nature. This will insure a healthier and more grace- ful growth and all the shade that may be de sired. Let the injunction hereafter be: W e that Touch not tingle 2 Jan. 19, 1891. a W.

D., Jan, 19, via Rushville, Neb.—The news ofthe murder of a party of peaceful Indians by whites was received here to-day, and is as much deplored by the officers as by the Indians themselves. It is particularly unfortunate that the outrage occurred just at this mo- ment, when many of the leading chiefs were endeavoring to persuade the disorderly ele- ment to submit to the government and had about succeeded. The murder near Bear Butte effectually decides the question of vol- untary disarmament.. There was little chance at any time of its being general, but no one expects that the Indians will give up, their rifies unless they are taken from by force. AFRAID OF WHITE MURDERERS. The younger men believe that they will be ruthlessly murdered if they are unable to protect themselves, and there is too much ground for this belief. There is a certain class of frontiersmen who will shoot an Indian on sight, out of pure deviltry, if they think it can be safely done, and the Govern- ment is practically powerless to protect those who surrender their arms. The Indians do not understand how it is that the soldiers can attack them if they commit murder or depredations, and yet cannot punish whites who kill Indians. Some of the irreconcllables are citing the Bear Butte incident as an example of what may be expected if the Sioux are no to protect themselv it takes all the in- fluence of chiefs like Toung-Man- Afraid -- of - His- Horses, who, like his father, has always been loyal to the back- bone, to keep the young bucks from taking the warpath. When the news of the murder was received hundreds of young warriors made a break for the pony herd, and had it not been for the cordon of troops there would be half a dozen war parties out now. Afterthe first excitement subsided it was found to be possible to prevent an outbreak, but it was a very close call, and the Indians were not only enraged but gréatly terrified. OUTRAGES BY FRONTIERSMES. The army officers are indignant at the out- rage that has done so much to complicate matters just at the time when everything was going smoothly, but those experi enced on the frontier express no surprise. The story of the outrages committed by the Indians upon the whites has often been told, and it is bad enough, but the other side has not been made public. There are a set of ‘worthless, murderous miscreants hanging about Indian reservations who are as ready to commit unprovoked murder as the most savage Sioux, and such occurrences as that at Bear Butte are common enough. The mil tary have no power to punish the criminals, although they would so with great pleasure, and the county, courts will do nothing. This state of affairs has very seriously com- plicated the present situation, as the Indians have some show of justice on their side when they assert that without their arms they would be atthe mercy of every white mis- creant who chose toattack them, and that the soldiers cannot protect them. ‘ a BDUCATED INDIANS, That there are a number of Indians among the hostiles who are graduates of the Carlisle and other Indian schools is now certain, and seem to have gotten over their longing savage life, the — Pre! 1 great ma · jority ot army officers practically Indians.

No men give the troops and the agents so much troubie as the half - breeds. A near relative of one of the best known families in St. Louis was for years the most turbulent and savage of the Cheyenne dog soldiers. Few who have had experience believe that there is any pos sibility of civilizing Indians by Indians. : INDIAN PONIES. Although the Sioux are savages, they fully appreciate the value of wealth, and the rich man is as =infigential among them as in the commercial centers of Europe and America, They still estimate their wealth by ponies, although the herds are far smaller than they were in former times. The poorest ponies are never mount- ed, being used as pack animals; steady reliable old horses drag the lodge poles, and carry the wickerwork cages in which the old and infirm and the very young children are trans- ported. Each squaw each child has a pony, and next come the hacks ridden in hunting and in traveling from place to place. The race ponies are highly esteemed, and rank first below the Indian’s true love, his War pony. This is the only animal on which he ever bestows any particular love. Noone but the owner ever is allowed to mount him, and he is always kept in the best condition. BROKEN TREATIES. How the United States Has Violated Its Own Pledges. * That the United States has not been blame - less in its relations to the Indians is a fact well known to all who have taken the treaties made at different times. With scarcely an exception they have been broken almost as soon as made, and in more than one instance the very Administration that made the treaties set to work to violate them before the ink was dry, The Sioux have been par- ticularly unfortunate in this respect. Until 1851 they were under the charge of the War Department and there was comparatively little trouble. When the In- terior Department took charge the treaty- making and treaty-breaking began. By the treaty of Fort Laramie the Sioux and seven other tribes,for money considerations, agreed to remain north of the Platte and within cer- tain well-defined longitudinal boundaries, the white man agreeing to keepaway from that territory. This compact was first broken by the whites. In 1865 further treaties were made with vari- ous bands ofthe Sioux, whereby, for addi- tional money considerations they promised to withdraw from the overland routes through their territory. This led ap to the treaty of 1868 with the entire Sioux nation, by which the Great Sioux Reservation in South Dakota was first set apart ‘‘for the absolute and un- disturbed use and occupation ofthe Indians, upon which no outsiders but government em- ployes were to be allowed to pass, settle or reside.’’ The Indians promised to keep the peace, and they were to be permitted to hunt in certain localities outside the reservation, By the terms of the treaty, also, alarge tract of land west and north of the reservation, in- cluding the Big Horn region, was considered as belonging to the Indians and as yet unced- ed tothe United States. The provisions of the treaty relating to these outside hunting grounds and unceded lands soon led to further troubles. Little by little, emigrants and settlers encroached on the Indian territory, squatted on the unceded lands, and killed or frightened off the game, and from time to time various tracts were ob- tained from the Sioux in return for money, or for promises Of money which were some- times unfulfilled. Finally, in 1874 gold was discovered in the Black Hills, in the heart of the Sioux reservation itself, and this was the signalfor a mad rush of thousands of emi- grants into and through the Indian domain, in utter defiance of treaty obligations, law and common courtesy. It was merely an- other case of the big boy and the little boy. Negotiations followed, resulting in the treaty or agreement of 1877, whereby the Sioux ceded ali the outside lands and also the Black Hill country in return for rations, schools, agricultural implements, etc. On the part of the Government, Congress has steadily scaled down the appropriations for the Sioux ever since 1884. The appropria- tion for that year was $1,825,000, and for 1890, $900,000. In every year but one theappro- tion has been less than the amount asked or by the Indian Commissioner. The appro- priations, moreover, have sometimes been unreasonably delayed, causing much suffer- ing and discontent at theagencies, The re- duction of the appropriation for the fiscal year 1889-90 to a lower point than ever reached before since 1877, namely to $900,000, $100,000 less than in the preceding year, caused a decrease of 260,000 pounds in the amount of beef purchased for the Sioux in that fiscal year. The cause of the troubles is the fdilure o Congress to carry out the bargain made by the commission of the summer of 1889. In re- turn for the cession of a large of lands, a sum of money was to be paid the Sioux, and ‘their rations increased. The Government has the lands, but the bill in relation to the holders in this city . road CO., which is the owner of the cable sys- tem of Los Angeles, Cal., and which was put in the hands of a receiver yesterday. They allege that C. B. Holmes, the cable magnate, owners covered the entire property; that the road, in fact, never duced to marketing of some of the bonds both in New York and London; that they did not meet with success abroad, but placed $180,000 worth in New York; that when they heard of the actual status of affairs they took the re- mainder off sale and sent a man here to m- vestigate. ‘ It appears now that most of the bonds were placed with banks in this city and st. Louis, where the Chicago syndicate controlling the Los Angeles road and known aß the National Rallway Co. also owns street railroads. It is that Mr. Holmes caused the sub- ? practically dissatisfaction in the St. Louis company sulting therefrom caused Mr. Holmes’ retire- ment from its presidency last October. Mr. James Campbell, the broker, was shown the above telegram, and after reading i carefully he said that the statements con- tained in it were substantially correct. „There is, however, no ‘sub-company’ in St. Louis, he said. The $150,000 of the Pacific Co.’s bonds were turned over to the National Construction Ce, of Chicago, the same com- pany that owns the Broadway, Cass avenue, Franklin avenue, Union and Northern Central street car .liges of St. Louis. You see, Holmes was at the head of both companies and he borrowed or. took money from one company to pay the other’s debts. He $150,000 from three or four st. Louis s for the Los Angeles cable roads and gave as security $165,000 in bonds of the Pacific Railroad Co. That was last sum- mer and the money wasto be paid back on . When the squeeze came in the money market last fall, the banks called in the loan and Holmes, having $150,000 in another st. Louis bank to the credit of the National Construction Co. of Chicago, can- celledthe Pacific company’s debt with the National company’s money. When the latter company learned of it, Mr. Holmes had to re- 2 the presidency of that company, as 5 telegram stated. He had already turned over the $165,000 of Pacific company’s bonds to the Chicago company, and they still have them, and they have also compelled Holmes to give them ad- | ditional security in the shape of his Chicago residence and other unincumbered property, worth in all probability more than $150,000, so that the only loser in the transaction will probably be Mr. Holmes himself. He may claim that he had authority to loan $150,000 of the National Construction Co.’s money tothe Pacific Railroad Co., but that opinion is not shared by the other directors and I understand that he is to be prosecuted. criminally for paying the Pacific Co.’s debts in that way. Mr. Campbell does not think that the St. Louis banks which received the National Construction Co.’s money will suffer inany way fromthe transaction, Mr. Holmes being the only party that can,in his opinion, be held liable for the amount.

By Its Provisions the Judge of the St. Louis Court of Criminal Correction Is Given a Vote in the Selection of the Appointee—Joy in the St, Louis Dele- gation. | JEFFERSON OITY, Jan. 22,The House spent two full hours this morning wrangling over Representative Julian's resolution instruct- ing Missouri Representatives in ‘the Senate and Congress to support radical free trade. It was thought that Julian and his free trade resolution had been suppressed, but both broke out with increased em- phasis as soon as Speaker Tuttle called the House to order this morning, Julian made a long speech and insisted that Democracy meant free trade. He wanted the Democratic members tostand up to the rack and not seek refuge behind tariff ro- form. The Republican members, headed by Tubbs of Osage, ex- pected the resolution and they all favored a free discussion of Julian’s pro- duction. There werea number of speeches madeonthe subject by Democrats and no little feeling diapiayen. Representative Ryan of St. Louis® who, like Julian, claims that the Democratic Party should adopt free. trade as the standard, made a rambling speech in which he aimed to show that the Democratic party should incorpor- ate every theory advanced by Henry George. It developed in the discussion that Ryan had openly stated since the election of Vest that he never would have voted for him in the cau- cus if he had seen the letter, since written by the Senator, on the tariff question. The res- olution was attacked on ail sides, and some of the leaders were indignant at the. insinua- tion that they were cowards e they would not jump off the Democratic platform to take up the free-trade banner. The dis- cussion, which promised to be interminable, was finally cut short by the adoption of Rep- resentative Fogle's resolution referring the matter to the Committee on Federal Rela- tion. A recess was then taken until 2 o’clock. The afternoon session was devoted to the transaction of the business which was side- tracked in the morning to give Julian a chance with his resolution. THE SENATE. Senator Stone of St. Louis introduced a bill this morning giving the Judge of the St. Lori. Court of Criminal Correction a vote in the selection of theJury Commissioner for that city. At present only the five Circuit Judges and the Judge of the Criminal Court have any voice in the appointing of the custodian of the jury lists. Stone says that hisidea is to prevent atieinthe political complexion of the judges from delaying the appointment of a commissioner in the event of that office be- coming vacant, as it is at present. At the request of the Mechanics’ Rxchange of St. Louis, Senator Espenchied pfesnted a memorial asking the establishment of free manual training schools. The bill to place express companies under the supervision of the Railroad Commissioners was given a first reading. THE Sr. LOUIS DELEGATION SATISFIED. The St. Louis delegation having secured a place onthe Appropriations Committee by the appointment of Representative Hawkins of the Third District, are better satisfied with the committee arrangements. The sug- gestion to give st. Loulsa representative on this important committee was made Tuesday in the House, and yesterday Mr. Hawkins participated in a preliminary meeting of that committee. All the committees are now organized and ready for the 250 bills already introduced in the lower branch of the Assembly. Some of the bills have already been reported, most of which came from the. Committee on Criminal Jurisprudence, “which Fogle of Schuyler is chairman. Among the number which met with the disapproval of this committee was the bill to prohibit domestic geese from run- ning at large. The committee could not see any necessity of enacting any law to restrict the wandering of geese, but the farmer mem ber who introduced it insists that it is a good bill and ought to pass. THE RAILROAD BILLS. The Committee on Railroads and Internal Improvements held its initial meeting last evening in the office of the Railroad Commis Sioners. No action was taken, however, on“ the dozen or more bills referred to that com mittee. Attorney W. H. Phelpsof the Mis- sourl Pacific was on hand early, and ad- dresséd the committee. He made the re- quest that none of the bills affect- ing the roads de reported until the rairoad companies were given a hearing. The tailroad companies, he added, had rights which he felt assured would be fully and carefully considered by the committee. Among the bills aretwo reducing passenger rates, two affecting sleeping-car charges, and one makinga big cut in freight rates. One of the passenger hills restricts the rate to 2½ cents and the other to 2 cents per mile. Bothof the bills regulating sleeping- car rates aim to limit the charge to $2 for every twenty-four hours instead of $8 and $4, the rates now exacted by thecompany. The railroad attorneys here have missed no op- port@nity to tell the members that the com- panies cannot possibly.carry passengers for dess than 8 cents per mile. Some lively lobby work is expected before these bills come up for passage or rejection. PRIMARY ELECTION LAW. Representative Ryan of St. Louis will try to pass an amended primary election law. His bill contemplates a number of changes in the old law which, as has been demonstrated, failed of the object for which it was enacted. It was intended to insure equal privileges to all contestants for nominations but old and tried politicians laugh when anybody suggests the application of the penalty provision of the law to the bal- lot box stuffers. Ryan’s bill starts with the demand for equal representation in the mat- ter of judges and clerks to all contesting dele- gations and candidates and specifies that each delegation pay 880 for each ward to pay expenses. Where can- didates are to be voted for direct, they will be called upon to contribute $25 foreach ward. The tickets, according to one of the sections, will be printed and sup- plied to the judges and clerks by the Re- corder of Voters, who will also certify the re- turns and certify results to the Oen- tral Committee. Ryan’s idea is to abridge to some i extent the immense powers assumed by the Central and Congressional Committees. The pro Are applicable only to St. Louis and City. THE JURY COMMISSIONER BILL. The bill prepared by Representative Parker to give the Governor power to appoint Jury Commissioners for St. Louis and Kan- SAS, City is to Bill ready contract on hand of eaten ak it through the Assembly if that body cares to increase the tronage of the Governor by empowering the custodians of the jury lists for the two principal cities of the State. dien with penitentiary contracts.

The 3 State Press Association is urg- — ge Of an act to have the session Ss pu county * city in the State at a cost of from 50 to 60 cents per 100 words. Ed W. Stephens of the Columbia Herald is here working up a sentiment in favor ot the bill. He says the bill prepared by the asso- ciation is sinillar to the law in force in New York and other States, and that there is no reason why it should not be passed in ri. The bill will be introduced by 2 Tuttle at the request of the associa- on, ST. LOUIS POLICE RELIEF ASSOCIATION. The St. Louis Police Relief Association ig represented here to-day by Capt. John W. Campbell, Sergt. Geo. MeNamee and Patrolman Tom Donegan, all of whom are of- ficially connected with that organization, The bill they are interested in is to allow the Municipal Assembly of St. Louis to make ap- propriations to pension disabled members of the forceand their widows andorphans in the event they are killedin the performance of duty. It also provides that those who have served twenty years may he retired on half pay. The act is not in- tended to dissolve the association and throw the whole burden upon the city, but simply to relieve it of certain features, such as the veteran benefits and the penions of men who became incapacitated while in performance of police duty. The association will continue paying sick benefits and the insurance to the widows or other heirs in such cases where members die natural deaths. The passage of the bill will not take acent out of the State Treasury and for this reason it is expected that it will not meet much, ifany, objection from the Assembly. MEAT INSPECTION. Senator Cochran of St. Joseph has a meat inspection bill, but has not yet presented it to. the Assembly. When it does get a good start on its legislative car eer there will be a howl from the Kansas City packing houses and stock yards. Senator Cochran favors any kind of inspection that will insure the sale of nothing but pure and wholesome meat. A bill of a like character is looked for from Representa- tive Hawkins of St. Louis, whoisa practical butcher and an advocate of State inspection. It is reported here that if any legislation is attempted on this score the Kansas City stock yard and packing-house interests will club together asd take the entire Legislature ona junket up to to the city by the Kaw. From present indications it is almost certain that there will be some legis- lation on the matter of inspection. LABOR DAY. The Labor Committee has adopted a report recommending that the first Monday in Sep- tember be Labor Day and that it be given a place among the State holidays. The committee is now considering the bills for factory inspection and to prevent the op- erators of such institutions from employing children under 14 years of age. ELECTING UNITED STATES SENATORS. The Committee on Federal Relations has given a favorable report on the resolution declaring it the sense of the Assembly that United States Senators should be elected by a vote of the people. INTEREST ON LOANS. The Committee on Banks and Banking has reported the bill to prohibit any financial in- stitution from charging more than 10 per cent per annum for loans. This includes commis- sions, fees and other charges in connection with such transactions. Wherean excess is charged one-half is to go to the borrower and the other to the school fund. , THE FEE SYSTEM. Representative Tom Martin’s resolution providing for the appointment of a commit- tee of five to examine the laws relative to the fee offices within the gift of the Governor,and prepare a plan to do away with the fee sys- tem and fix the salaries of such officers, has been adopted, but the committee has not yet been appointed. Martin said last evening that he was surprised that the committee was not named when the resolution was adopted. The object of the resolution is to ascertain whatthe fees amount to and the reason, ifany, why the system should not be changed. Tayler’s Suse Cure, cures Constipation, THE LATHROP CRUSADERS.

It has again been noised about that there is considerable private teaching going on in the public school buildings and that it is car- ried on to such an extent that formal com- plaints are about to be made. Itis said that some teachers have carried on private classes very extensively and that some baye reg- ular classes that are instructed in the even- ing in the rooms of public school buildings, A complainant makes the statement that he believes the teachers who are giving private lessons are actually neglecting their public school duties forthe purpose of Increasing their classes in private tuition. There is no rule in the School Board prohib- iting this practice, asthe Board has no con- trol over the acts of the teachersafter they have concluded their labors for the day in the public schools. Thetime afterthat is their own. The practice, however, is frowned upon and Supt. Long heretofore has lost no time doing what he could to stop it. SUPT. LONG’S POSITION. There is no rule of the board against pri- vate teaching after school hours, said Mr. Long, ‘‘as the board recognizes that the time of the teachers after they have performed their duty with us is legally their own. The practice is not tolerated in our schools, how- ever, and we put an end to it wherever we hear of it. I will present this matter to the meeting of the principals to-day and see ifthey know of any private teaching being done by public school teachers. The harmin this practice is at once apparent. If it were allowed to go unchecked a teacher might neglect her pupils in school and tell their parents that she would keep them up with their class for extra compensa- tion. The names of the teachers ought to be mentioned in the complaints, and if they are sent to me I promise you that a speedy and effectnal stop will be put to the private teaching complained of.’’ Normal School Graduating Exercises. This morning the graduating exercises of the Normal School at Sixteenth and Pine streets took place and were ‘witnessed by a large audience of friends and parents of the young ladies who were given their diplomas. The hall was neatly decorated for the occasion, The graduating class of forty-four young ladies entertained the visitors with a choice selection of choruses which displayed most creditably the excellent training they had re- ceived in music. The programme opened with a chorus, Thank the Creator, and was followed by another, Praise of Spring. At this point School Director Walter F. Me- Entire, who had been invited to be present at the exercises, mounted the stage and made an address tothe class. He congratu- lated them onthe success of their efforts in mastering a most difficult series of studies and said that the pupils and the teachers de- pserved great praise and compliments in showing such a large class of young ladies who had so deservedly won the diplomas they were about to receive. Following the address were three choruses by the class, ‘‘A Song of Praise,’’ ‘‘Be Thou Exalted, Lord, and Through Dark Shady Forests.’’ The following young ladies were then given their diplomas: Eugenia B. Ash- brook, Olive Baker, Julia M. Barclay, Katha- rine L. Carroll, Kate L. Cunningham, Caro- lyn V. Dammert, Pauline Marie Endres, Ethel Fassett, Katie Finnegan, Katie A. Fraser, Laura E.

The Course of study Committee will meet this afternoon and again decide to recom- mend to the School Board that book- -Keeping be added to the studies of the seventh and eighth grades, The Course of Study Committee has been stuck om this question several months and the School Board, in fact, is behind just one year in deciding the question, as it was to have bedn settled last March, but more inter- esting topics on politics and membership came. up about that time and every: thing else was ignored. The com- mittee recommending the study has ved very little encouragement as the wotion to increase the number of studies in seventh and eighth grades will be de- -feated. The experiment of teaching bock - keeping was tried in 1889 in the Blair, Ames and Madison Schools. The Madison Scho seemed pleased, but the other two did not. On examination it was found that the entries had been copied and that the pupils did not really understand the theory of bookkeeping. It has since been looked upon by a great many as a mere prac- besides. and plenty of the majority think book-keeping would no use whatever, as every individual or ration has his or its own style of man must from the ne ct aoe school.

The Board of Public Schols intends to take the necessary stepsito relieve the present overcrowded conditio of the schools. At the joint meeting of théTeachers and Ways and Means Committee mld a few days ago the recommendatio} of Supt. Long for additional district j}chool accom- modations was considered. Herecommended additions to the Ames, Penmse and No. 4 schools of four rooms each and t)theBryanHill and Irving Schools of six roomseach. He also recommended the construction pf new twelve- room buildings for the, Chojteau School, southwest of the present buifing, for the Rock Spring School, southwest pf the present building, and a school on Westninster place, west oi Vandeventer avenue. Aijother recom- mendation made by Mr. Long is that the — purchase a site locatedbetween the Irving and Penrose schools andwest of the Blair, the intention being, of course, to build a school there at some future date. The four-room addition to the Ames School was recommended by the joint committee to be built. Supt. Long’s other recommenda- tions were laid over until a future meeting. Itisnot anticipated that all of Mr. Long’s recommendations will be granted, as the board has not the funds at their disposal to carry all of them out, but there is every pros- pect that the board will build all the accom- modations actually needed for the district schools at the present time, and that there will be no overcrowding next year at any of the schools. Work on the new Central High School is also to be pushed. This year’s appropriation for the buliding will be equal to that of last year and the work will go right on until the struc- ture has been completed. Theground has al- ready all been paid for, and while the build- ing will not be as elegant as at first designed it will be a handsome and commodious struc- ture. The original estimate was for a build - ing to cost $350,000, but the different commit- tees now have the matter under consideration and it is the intention to alter the plans so that the school can be built for about $150,000, or at the outside $200,000. BASE BALL OUTLOOK. President Von der Ahe Very Much Pleased With His Club and the Association. Chris Von der Ahe, President of the St. Louis Browns, returned home this morning from New York, where he went to attend the meeting of the Conference Committee of the American Association and the National League. He was apparently in the best of humor over the consolidation allalong the line and the reorganization of the American Association. Jam more than satisfied with the result ofthings,’’ he rémarked. ‘‘fThe American Association is on a stronger basis financially and in the matter of a circuit than it has been for years: Both Bostonand Chicago will be represented with good clubs, while Philadel- phia and Washington will have better teams than either city has had in a long while.’’ Jou don’t think then thatthe restrictions placed upon Boston and Chicago will be a handicap?’’ No, the victory of getting in Boston es- pecially is big enough in itself, while the men associated with the Association club there, notably, Frederick Prince, are determined to have a first-class team. Some of the best men on last year’s Brotherhood club will be retained on the Association team, Harry Stovey, Arthur Irwin, Ad Gumbert and Catcher Morgan Murphy. Hardie Richard- son is willing to pay for the privi- lege of getting away from the League club to play with the Association team, The Boston League folks objected so strenu- ously against having opposition again this year, because last year’s experience was any- thing but pleasant, and I see by the paper that their losses were estimated way up in the thousands. You will find when matters get straightened out that the Boston and Chieago Clubs will be two of the strongest clubs in the new Association. Upon what plan will the Association work next year?“ „The division of the gate receipts on a 50 per cent basis is fair to all concerned. This of course does not include the grand stand receipts. Each club can hold on to its own grand stand receipts except on three special days. These days are Decoration Day, July 4and Labor Day in September. The gross re- ceipts of these three games will be pooled and divided among the eight clubs. If it hap- pens torain in any one of the cities on that day, that does not debar the two clubs not playing from having their share of receipts.’’ What about the assignment of players un- der the new order of things?’’ The new national agreement does away with the sales system, and a player can not be transferred from one club to another un- less he wants to go. With the reorganization of the American Association and the Brother- hood going Out of business, that will give us plenty of first-class men, and the teams will be . pretty evenly divided, It will be of general benefit to the national game, and I think, under the new order of things, you will see base ball flourish with the old-time interest and enthusiasm.’’ ‘‘Have you done anything regarding the Browns for the coming season?“ „Outside of signing Comiskey, I have done nothing yet. It will not be long, however, before I will begin signing men for the team. It is about settled that Denny Lyons, the hard-hitting third baseman of the Athletics, will cover third for the Browns. He isa good man and not afraid of g after the hottest bal) that may get into is territory. * „nat about second base? “That position will be covered by a first - class man, you can depend upon it. I prefer to say nothing about him until he is signed.

There is a large area of country lying to the northwest of the Insane and along the inside edge of the “city Umits, which is demanding a large supply of water every day.

The House of Delegates Committee’ pointed some months ago to look thto matters concerning Tower Grove Park will meet this afternoon and make a few inquiries into the manner in which the sum of$25,000 an- ‘mually set apart by the city for the,mainte- nance of Tower Grove Park is spent. When the committee was appointed there was some talk of doing away with this an- nualappropriation as it was considered too muth, but upon investigation it was found that it was made one of the conditions under which the city acquired the park and ‘could not be avoided, so a committee was ap- pointed to see how the money was disposed of. The park is in the hands ofa board or commission, which was formerly appointed by Henry Shaw, but which is now appointed by the trustees. In view of the fact that there is a surplus of this Tower Grove fund in the treasury and the park is in perfect condition, it is safe to say that the committee willi find nothing objectionable in the past administra - tion of affairs. Don’t Think It Will Work. Boller Inspector McClellan was asked this 3 what he thought of the boiler in spection bill introduced into the Legislature by: Senator Sparks. Mr. McClellan said: ‘‘I do not think it will work. It provides fora State Inspector and deputies and for a County Inspector for each county. Itis right there wherea serious mis- take is made. In some counties in this State one inspector could not earn his salt at $2 an inspection, because there are not enough and thén the bill provides that the State tor and the County.Inspectors shall have the power to examine applicants and issue them engi- neers’ licenses. Some of the County Inspec- tors would not be competent to do this, and the . system is too miscellaneous. I have drafted a bili. ‘which 1s nearly ready, which 1 think will do better. It provides for a State inspector ap- pointed by the Governor and approved by the Senate. He appoints deputies who are ap- proved by the Governor. The inspection fee is $2, and of this the State gets 10 per cent. The fest of the fees are divided detween the inspector and his deputies after $800 is set aside for the inspector and $1,200 Y Yor his clerk.’ With half a dozen deputies he could look after the whole State without any trouble.’’ Mr. McClellan’s bill will not conflict in any way with inspectorships ag are already es- tablished here and in St. Joseph and Kansas City. 4 Charging Double Fares on Street Cars. Several complaints have been made con- _ cerning the manner of charging fares en the Lindell Railway (Washington avenue), and inquiries have been made at the City Register’s office as to what the ordinances provide. As stated by some of the complain- ants the company charges an extra fare when a passenger changes from one car to another onthe sametrain. One gentleman said to-day: ‘‘I was riding on the motor car of a train this morning, when a friend of mine on the rear car saw me ashe wanted to talk business he came the front car. The conductor asked him is fare and he explained that he had al- y paid it on the other car. The conductor sted, however, and made the gentleman back into the car where he had paid his ‘ce. Lsawthe same rule enforced on two ng men, who were on separate cars, and ted totrade newspapers. The one who ged from one car to the other was com- pelled to pay a second fare. If the com- plaints are as stated, the Lindell road ts establishing a rule which is not used by other companies. The Cates Avenue Controversy. The property owners who are desirous of having Cates avenue opened from Union ave- nue westward are now preparing totake the matter into the Council. This opening is the one which would cut the Visitation Convent property in two should it be made and which is opposed by them. To open the street it requires a full vote of the Board of Public Improvements, and it is understood that one member will not vote for the measure, so that the board will not be able to recommend it. In this event a ma- jority of the property owners may bring the thing before the Council and hav * ordi- mance introduced. From present 2 it is probable that the fight which has been made before the board will be transferred to the Council. The New Recorder of Voters. ? . The new Recorder of Voters, Mr. Jas. L. did not take charge. Oarlisle, visited the office this morning, but He said he would first have his resignation as Jury Commissioner accepted and then take his new officein due form. Mr. Carlisle has been occupied with the sad duty of attending to the funeral of his brother-in-law Mr. Martin, and has not given much attention to his new office. Who his „chief deputy will be he has not stated. The affairs of the office are in such shape that they do not demand immediate attention.

IMPORTANT EVENTS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE RIVER. The St. Louis & Suburban Railway Fran- chise—An East Side Banquet—Sales of the Day and Prospective Improvements —Personal Gossip: . To-morrow afternoon at 3 0’clock the Rail- road Committee of the City Council will con- sider for the last time the recommendation of the franchise applied for by the St. Louis & Suburban Railway Co., which is seeking for the privilege of changing its motor power on the old Cable and NarrowGauge fromgteam to electric motors,from Sixth and Locust streets all the way out to Florissant, with a branch running south into Forest Park. At the last meeting of this committee, held Tuesday afternoon, ‘there was a very large attendance of persons inter- ested in this enterprise, including among them a great many owners of property along the line, and a more enthusiasticand wnani- mous crowd never expressed itself favorable to the granting of any franchise. Numerous speeches were made and the main point of each of them was that the company had con- sulted with interested property owners as to every feature of the bill providing for the proposed change. There is not an objection- able clause init. From beginning to end the bill was warmly indorsed by all the speakers, who said thatit was just what everybody wanted, andit was hoped that the Railroad Committee would recommend its adoption. The presumption now is that the bill will be passed atto-morrow night’s meeting of the House of Delegates. SALES OF THE DAY. Henry Feuerbach says he has sold nfs Franklin avenue residence property num- bered 3207 to 3217 Inclusive for $13,000, to George H. Brueggeman.

Horton thinks the Union Depot legis- lation is now in a very good condition for all parties concerned, and he believes the Coun- cil will adopt it without further delay or trouble at the meeting Friday night. , S. S. Scott says if the Union Depot Co. had intended to expend only $500,000 in new build- ings, it would be just as well for them to re- main where they are. F. W. Mott contemplates building a lodge hall on South Broadway. E. S. Warner has returned home from Chicago. Charles H. Bailey, Jr., having had all the experience he wants from travel in Califor- nia, is now on his way to Mexico and will most likely go to South America before his return home about the Ist of June.

He said there were full reasons why the checks of contributors should be returned to them. The sum of $500,000 was not money enough to relieve his companies without theaid of stockholders and creditors. He handed the reporter a new circular to stockholders of the Westinghouse Electric Co., which extended the time of subscribing to the preferred stock from Jan. 26 to Jan. 31: He said that 20,500 shares had already been subscribed for and assurances given which would bring the total amount to 25,000 shares. Some of these subscriptions are conditional on at least 40,000 shares being taken, and all subscriptions are now taken subject to that condition. The placing of these 40,000 shares will relieve the company of all financial difficulties and place it in po- sition to push business. THE AMERICAN NATIONAL. KANSAS CIrr. Mo., Jan. 22.—A committee of local capitalists called upon United States Bank Examiner Marshall yesterday and in- formed him that they were prepared to sub- mit a proposition for the reopening of the American National Bank. Mr. Marshall re- plied that if they would place their proposi- tion in writing he would refer it to the Comp- troller of the Treasury at Washington. A telegram has been received from Comptroller Lacey tothe effect that such a proposition would receive his prompt attention. CLEARING OUT WEAK HOUSES. MONTREAL, Quebec, Jan. 22.—The failure of the big dry goods firm of McLachlan Bros. for $700,000, yesterday, resulted in the failure of Lindsay, Gilmour & Co. for $225,000. The assignment of these two firms, it is thought, is the beginning of a general clearing out by the Canadian banks of weak houses, and sev- eral other large houses are expected to go in the next few days. RUN ON AN OMAHA BANK. OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 22.—A run was made yesterday on the South Omaha branch of the Nebraska Savings and Exchange Bank. The cause of the run is notknown.

A Suit for Its Violation Brought Against Selwyn C. Edgar. United States District Attorney Reynolds at a late hour yesterday afternoon, filed a suit in the United States Court charging Sel- wyn C. Bdgar,. manager of the Glendale Zinc- works, with a violation of the contract labor law. It is charged that the defendant on July 15, 1890, assisted and encour- aged the emigration of one Isaac Boyce, an alien, from Bristol, . Engiand, to Philadel- phia. The following letter was written by Boyce to Mr. Gray, then manager of the Glen- dale Zinc & Iron-works at Carondelet, then under the control of defendant: No. 16 AIKEN STBEET BARTON HILL, or. 5 From Mr. I. Boyce to Mr. Gray, the Manager: DEAR Sm-I have heard that you are in want of men to work onthe spelter furnaces. I and one of my fellow workmen would like to come out there, as the work here is very slack. If it would be conven- jient for you to send us a pass each we would come out as soon as possible. We have both worked in the spelter-works for many years. Would you oblige us by writing back to let us know, and oblige , 2. I. BOYCE, Bristol, England. The name o y fellow workman is Fred Doro- solski. This letter was turned over to Edgar by Gray, and the former answered as follows: I. Boyce, No. 16 Aiken street, Barton Hill, Bristol, England: DEAR Str—Your letter of April 11 has just been handed to me and I have this day bought two tickets for you and Fred Dorosolski from the St. Louis agent ofthe American Line, and all you have to dois to take this letter to Richardson, Spruce & Co., No. 17 Water street, Liverpool, and get tickets through to St. Louis. We can give you’ steady work and have places for six or eight more smelters if they want to come. I run fourteen Belgium furnaces. Tickets will not be good after July 18. The two men arrived in Philadelphia on Aug. 5 last, but were sent back to England by the Collector of Customs. There are two counts against Edgar, each asking for $1,000. A TALE OF TWO CITIES. The Costly Infatuation of a Millionaire Brewer’s Son for an Adventuress. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 22.—A telegram from Inspector Byrnes tothe Police Depart- ment Tuesday night has developed a story which, if true, may create a seven days’ sen- sation and scandal in Washington, in which the son of a prominent New York brewer will figure conspicuously. The telegram was a re- quest that Clara Haysor, 18 years of age, and her companion, a woman named Kellogg, be arrested, with the information that they had left Philadelphia for this city. This was supplemented with a request to ‘‘hold all jewelry.’’ The women were located ata disreputable house south of Pennsylvania av- enue. Th@ Kellogg girl was modestly dressed, but Clara fairly sparkled with jewelry, which consisted of a pairof diamond ear-rings, a ring set with diamonds and sapphires,another ring set with diamonds and pearls, a butter- fiy-shaped breastpin of diamonds and other precious stones, a diamond bracelet and a valuable hairpin. She sighed repeatedly as she was being relieved of her jeweled wealth. Jou may as well kill me as to take my jewelry, she moaned. When Clara under- st that the jewelry was the cause of her trahbles she was profuse with explanations ow she came by it. She said the jewelry ad been given her by young Frank Ehret, gon of George Ehret, the millionaire brewer, who had become strangely infatuated with her and in one week had given her, besides $900 in cash, jewelry worth $3,000. And just because I got tired of him and left, said Clara, he had me arrested. If Iam deprived. of the jewelry that he gave me I might as well die. It will be the last of him anyhow, for I will have the pleasure of shoot- ing him, if I have to kill myself afterward.’’ Then Detective Mahon and Sergt. Brosnan sent the prisoners to the Sixth Precinct Po- lice Station, and the last request they made before leaving headquarters was that the jewelry should not be given to the young man whom they had jilted, They will be returned to New York without delay. Truth. It has become so common for merchants to raise their prices preparatory to an alleged reduction that people are apt to look with suspicion on all sales that profess extraordl- nary value. This, however, does not prove that all reduction sales are frauds or that offers of special bargains are always exag- gerated. The discount we offer on pictures during January ts just what it purports to be, an actual reduction of 33 1-3 per cent; it will only take a minute to prove this. If you want a real nice picture cheap, even a small one for a euchre prize, we will save you just one-third on your purchase. They are going rapidly. The discount stops Jan. 31. HEFFERNAN, 1010 Olive street. APPEALS THE CASE. Thomas Boswell Jones Says Considera- tion for Feelings Cost Him Dear. In the case of Thomas Boswell Jones, fined $100 in the Polièe Court ona charge of disturb- ing the peace of Cora Cameron, an appeal has been filed in the Court of Criminal Cor- rection. Jones says that out of considera- tion for the woman, he per- mitted his conduct to be pre- sented to the- court in a light ‘Which did him an injustice. He confined his statement to the occurrence on Olive street when he met Cora Cameron and her married sister, Mrs. Farris, when Farris joined them and threatened to do violence. He says the meeting was by accident and that his only purpose was to assure her that he was not anxious to insist on continuing her acquain- tance andthat thefears of persecuting at- tentions which she had communicated to her brother-in-law were, so far as he was concerned, unfounded. He says that his acquaintance with the woman has ex- tended overa peried of six years and was first formed at a chance meeting on the Street. Letters which he has and which he claims were written by the prosecutriz are of a compromising character. These, he says, he suppressed to his own injury when he was on trial for disturbing the peace by . talking to her on the street. TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES.

Capture of Desperate Bunco Men — The Murder of Dr. Willis— Freight Oon- ductor Killed by a Tramp—Swindled Their Creditors—Texas Train Robbers at Work—The Criminal Calendar. DENVER, Colo., Jan. 22.—Information comes from Silverton, in this State, that Padlewski, the Pole who murdered the Russion General Seliverskoff in Paris some months ago, was seen at that place recently. A man answer- ing to his description in every particular ar- rived there on a train from Durango» last Monday. He purchased a burro and a pros- pecter’s outfit and disappeared in the moun- tains. From remarks he dropped to some Russians and Frenchmen, the suspicion was created that he was the man so badly wanted in Europe. He was certainly well acquainted with Parisian localities. Desperate Bunco Men Captured. RAHWAY, N. J., Jan. 22.—A desperate struggle in capturing a bunco steerer oc- curred at this place yesterday, and it taused great excitement nedr the depot and the Rahway House. At noon a well dressed young man about 30 years of age entered the Rahway House and registered as James Vance of Jersey City. He was assigned to room 13. He told Proprietor Swain that he was going to take a nap and wanted to have the porter calPhim at 5 o’clock. He also left word that if any one called for him during that time to wake him immediately. At 4 O'clock the Southern Express arrived at this place and among the »passen- gers that left the train atthe station was a man about six feet tall with a heavy mus tache. He wore a slouch felt hat, and judg- ing from his appearance and make-up, was a Southerner. He went tothe Rahway House and registered as J. A. Maynor, West Vir- ginia. He asked Proprietor Swain if a man bythe name of Vance was stopping there. Swain answered in the affirmative and sent a porter up to Vance’s room. A short time af- terward thetwomen came down stairs and entered the bar-room, They had a couple of drinks and then strolled out toward the depot. It was afterward discovered that Vance was the leader ofthe famous bunco gang that has been victimizing people in New Jersey, and was one of the men that buncoed a citizen of Eliza- beth out of $3,000 two weeks ago. Ever since that affair Vance had been shadowed by two detectives, and they were watching him. When Vance and his friend arrived at the depot the two detectives asked Chiefof Police Tucker, who was standing near by, to arrest the men. Tucker caught Vance just as thetrain was moving out of the station for New York. Vance made a jump for the train and succeeded in getting upon the platform, dragging the Chief after him. The Chief ordered the conductor to stop the train, which he did, and Tucker took his man off. As soon as Maynor saw that his friend was arrested he broke away and made a bee line for the hotel. He went to the reading-room and sat down and quietly reada newspaper. In the room were also about twenty guests and citizens of this place, laughing and talking. When Maynor broke away Chief Tucker dispatched Special Policeman Ward to arrest him. Ward en- tered the reading-room of the hotel and, walking upto Maynor, said: I have been sent here to put you under arrest, so come Along.“ Quick as a flash Maynor jumped to his feet and whipped out a 44-caliber six- shooter re- volver which was a self-cocker, leveled it at Ward's breast and fired. Ward jumped to one side and received the bullet in his arm. The men in the room nearly all took to their heels. Maynor then raised the revolver and said that if they intended to arrest him he would blow his brains out. He raised the revolver and pointing it at his head was about to pull the trigger, when some person knocked it from hishands. He stooped and picked the revolver up, and potnting tothose in the room, said he would shoot the first one that followed him, and backed to the door. When he gained the street he turned and fled like a deer down the railroad track to Houghtonville, two miles below this place. There he took a train for New Brunswick, where he was arrested upon a telegraphic order from Chief Tucker, and last night he was sent back to Rahway. He is secure in the jail. Vance was locked up on a charge of bunco swindling, and Maynor is held for attempting to kill Policeman Ward. Ward’s injuries are not dangerous. / Abducted and Assaulted. CINCINNATI, O., Jan. 22.—A morning paper says that Mary Eschman, aged 16, employed ina cigar factory, was missing from home Monday afternoon until yesterday morning, when she returned in a pitiable plight and said she had been seized by two men Monday evening on her way home, thrown into a cab, gagged, her eyes bandaged and driven to some house in the country, where the men repeatedly assaulted her. She was kept all the time blindfolded until yesterday morn- ing, when they brought her back to the city and threw her out of the carriage on the pub- lic landing, whence she made her way home. The police authorities say no notice of the case has been given tò them. The Murder of Dr. Willis. NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—The two line an- nouncement of the death and burial of Geo. P. Willis in yesterday morning's papers was All that chronicled the departure from this earth ofa man who figured prominently in the social as well as the professional circles of this city seven or eight yearsago. Itis not yet forgotten how suddenly Dr. George P. Willis, a handsome and accomplished physi- clan, disappeared from this city at the time mentioned. Soon afterward he turned up in the western part of Arizona, where he set- tled down with his wife, formerly Miss Addison, who was known in New York society for more than a year before her husband’s disppear- ance from here. According to Mrs. Willis’ statement, the doctor prospered. Through the influence of relatives in London, the Wil- lis Sons, famous organ manufacturers, he was appointed General Superintendent and Paymaster of a number of mines, controlled by an English syndicate, at a handsome salary. In a short time he amassed consider- able money and built a lovely home, sur- rounded by a splendid farm. From day to day he traveled from shaft to shaft Oversee- ing the miners’ work, and at regular times paying them their wages. One day not many months ago, a tramp applied to him for work. The doctor looked on him with pity, clothed him and fed him and gave him work in one of the mines. His reward was ingrat- itude. The fellow’s name,Dan Shackleford, is now said to be connected with many crimes. He caused dissension among many of the miners and frequently used threats of -vio- lence, and becoming intolerable toward the end of last month, was discharged. On Dec. 80, as Dr. Willis was driving from shaft No. 1 to shaft No. 2, he was stopped onthe high- way by Shackleford, who demanded money, Claiming it was due him. The doctor asked him to go to his counting-room. Shackleford refused and as Willis urged his horses on, the desperado seized the bridle, and pulling a re- volver fired five shots into poor fellow’s — * The horses dashed to the doctor’s Fare - 2 tet AS W ke * 5 \ 7 1 J - 7 5 + 1 r iw .

Her husband lived just mother, Mrs. Addison, in this city, whom the news shocked so much that she ts yet ill. She, however, sent a friend of hers, a Mr. Tuffs, off to Arizona. The gentleman returned to this city Tuesday, bringing with him the dead man’s body, Mrs. Willis and her three orphans. The funeral took place yesterday, and was a very largeone, Mrs. Willis has considerable wealth left her now and will not return west again. Her husband’s murderer has not been captured. Texas Train Robbers. BROWNSVILLE, Tex., Jan. 22. — Fifteen masked men robbed a passenger train on the Rio Grande Railroad on the 19th, securing $20,000 in American silver dollars shipped by merchants of this city to New Orleans. The train was derailed by obstructions placed on the track. The United States mail pouches were rifled and passengers robbed, and then blindfolded and locked in a boxcar. The train caught fire and great loss of life would have followed had not some countrymen come to the rescue. A POSSE AFTER THEM. Corpus CHRISTI, Tex., Jan. 22.—Sheriff Whelan left here Tuesday night with a posse in response toa request from the Sheriff of Brownsville for aid in running down the masked train robbers.

Constable Brady Recovers More Staple Groceries. Constable Brady late last evening made another capture in the Louis Beckerkord attachment case. This time ten boxes of soap and four boxes of canned tomatoes were found unopened ard unused. The goods were found inthe basement under a lot of coal in a house near the corner of N inth and Cass avenue, Counting the late capture,nearly $700 worth of groceries have been recovered. The soap and tomatoes were found inthe house of an aunt of Beckerkord's, whoasserts that her nephew hired her basement as a storage room, but failed to explain why coal was piled upon the goods. The constable asserts that he has still more of the goods located, and will pounce down upon them while the peo- ple who havethem are not looking for him. Constable Miles still holds the fort at the empty store, 1024 Cass avenue,and Becker- kord’s father, the worthy tailor, is still won- dering how those groceries got into his house. Louis Beckerkord has shaken from his way- ward feet the St. Louis dirt, and is now en- camped in unknown parts. He regarded St. Louis as being an unpleasant place for him to reside, especially at the present time, and has slipped away to allow his creditors to settle the muddle he raised among themselves. The case is devel- oping more interesting features daily, and it is one where a grocery store was carried away almost bodily. Only the building was left. BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER.

What the Effect of the Passage of the Stone Bill Ordering’ All Wires Under Ground Will Be—A Great Scramble for Fran- chises Certain to Follow. City Counselor Bell has gone to Jefferson City to look after two bills which have be- come of greatest importance to the city. One of them is to provide a boulevard system in this city, and the other, ust at present the most important of the two, contemplates the abatement of the over head wire nuisance. The extent of the difficulties and dangers connected with the overhead system are too generally known and appreciated to require any recital. There was a bill introduced by State Senator Stone on the sth of this month, which provides in a measure for the straightening out of the difficul- ties. The bill states that all companies in cities ofthe first class using wires, poles or any ofthe conducting appli- ances in general use for electrical purposes shall, by the ist of May, 1898, remove them from abovethe surface of the ground and place them in conduits or other conveyances under the surface. To get their wires underground the com- pany must first secure authority from the city and then prepare plans, routes and other details of construction and submit them to the Board of Public Improvements or other authorized body for approval. If by the ist of May, 1893, the companies themselves fail to comply with the State enactment and do not make the necessary provisions the city shall have the power to provide by ordinance a conduit or underground carrier for wires and compel the tardy companies to place their wires therein. This measure is so framed as to give the city sufficient elbow room in defining what portions of the city shall be cleared of overhead wires and what portions may be occupied by the present sys- tems. frs EFFECT. If the measure passes the State Legislature it will modify matters in St. Louls in only one particular, and that is that it will compel the companies to apply for conduit ordinances instead Of leaving it a matter of choice with them. In anticipation of such a law, nearly ail of the large companies in the city have applied for individual ordinances but so far none of them have been successful in getting bills-to suit them, and the only conduit ordinance ever passed has so far been a failure for those who secured it, when the change from gas to electricity for street lighting was under contemplation. The men represented what is now the Municipal Lighting Co, got up an underground conduit ordinance with the intention of getting the wires for the city lights into it. The Nghting arrangements were all made, however, before the conduit was arranged to suft the Board of Public Im- provements; as àa result there were no wires to go into the conduit and no way of securing any. About $80,000 was spent by the company and several miles of conduit laid. The ordi- nance still exists, but work has been stopped and matters are ata standstill. Later onthe Bell Telephone Co. put in an ordinance for rights to build conduits for its own use. The Council put in an amendment which provided that in return for the conduit privileges the Bell Telephone Co, should furnish the city free with all the telephone service required by the city in all the depart- ments, including the Police Department, and pay into the City Treasury 5 per cent of the gross receipts. This amendment knocked the Bell Telephone Dill and it is still awaiting the action of the House of Delegates. A short time after the Bell Telephone bill was introduced another one under the name of the St. Lois Conduit Co. of Missouri was introduced. This bill asked simply for the privilege of building a conduit for carry- ing wires and was in the interest of the Bell Telephone Co. The tinkering done on this by the Assembly rendered it unsatisfactory to the projectors and it was abandoned and with the rest still lingers in an unsettled condition in the House of Delegates. About the time the Bell Telephone Co. intro- duced its billthe Postal Telegraph Co. intro- duced one which went along nicely until an amendment demanding the payment of $500 semi-annually, in advance, was put in, and then the Postal company deserted it and no further action was taken. The fourth conduit measure which is still hanging fire is an amendatory ordinance put in in the interest of the Sutter company. A SCRAMBLE FOR FRANCHISES. The ordinance is an amendment of the bill of the National Subway Co. of Missouri, and provides that their conduits shall be common carriers and enjoy all the privileges and rights as are usually en- joyed by such companies and makes a few other changes in the Original bill. When the State enactment passes, if it ever does get through in the face of the opposition which is sure to arise, there will bea scram- ble in.the Assembly here for franchises by the separate companies which will make things interesting. Allof the electric corporations state that their wires cannot be operated thorough a conduit with any other wires, and that it is useless to talk about a common car- rier for all of them. The telephones people say that their wires must be separate from electric light and fire alarm wires, and all the other companies make the same statement, so it is safe to predict that there will be at least half a dozen conduit bills up for con- sideration at the same time. THE HAMILTON CASE, Damaging Admissions Made by Eva Mann, Alias Hamilton. NEw Tonk, Jan. 22.—Eva Mann surprised the defense yesterday by admitting to the court that she had been Joshua Mann's mis- tress instead of his nurse, and that the child, Beatrice Ray, was Mann’s child and not the daughter of Robert Ray Hamilton. Whenthe court opened Col. Fuller, Eva’s attorney, read from a slip of paper as follows: It is admitted by the contestant that the child was born in Pennsylvania on Nov. 19, 1888, and was not the child of Robert Ray Hamilton. Itig admitted by the contestant that the child ¢hristened at Atlantic City as Beatrice Ray, and a respondent in these pro- ceedings was not the child of Robert Ray Hamilton.“ Surrogate Ransom turned to Eva and asked whether she had heard what had been read by her counsel and if it was in accordance with the facts. Eva bowed her head and murmured ‘‘ Ves, in a scarcely audible voice. Her admissions were the result of an agree- ment between the counsel,Mr.Root promising in return to drop further questions on Eva’s sé baby case. 9” After some further questions regarding her relations with Mann Eva was allowed to go, the court adjourning in order to let her attend her mother’s funeral at Dallas, Pa., in the afternoon. Eva’s admission kills all chances the child ever had of being zed af the heir of Ray Hamilton, but it will be entitled to $1 200 a year under Hamilton’s will. Stops a Runaway Team.

Nest No. 1, St. Louis Flock of Independent International Order of Owls, are making big preparations for the special roost to be held at Cincinnati, O., next Saturday, when Nest No. 10 will be ‘duly installed into the sacred mysteries of Owldom. The flight from here to Cincinnati will commence next Friday forenoon, and the alight- ing will occur the next day. On this flight the members of Nest No. 1 will carry with them, without the least trouble,all parapher- nalia, devices, appointments and costumes necessary for the consummation of such an immense roost as that planned. The Cincin- nati Enquirer has this to say of the local nest of national renown: “st. Louis Flock was organized Jan. 21, 1888, and ts membership, which now num- bers nearly six hundred, is composed of the pick of the Masonic lodges of St. Louis and vicinity. Its success has been phenomenal and its record of brilliant events and charita- ble work has commanded the attention of the secret society world. Nest No. 1, the Hirthplace of novelty, is especially noted for the elaborateness of its paraphernalia, properties, costumes, jewels, etc., and for the exquisite manner in which the ornitholagical rites are presented. There are no stereotyped and solemn or nerve- shocking and dangerous initiations, but a clear, bright, new and sumptuous exemplifi- cat ion of the splendors of the Orient and the -wonders.of the Occident. In short, it is un- deniably the only institution having any thing new to offer. „gt. Louis Flock has made several flights since its organization, and has done more than any other nest to animate and boom the order. The members ina body have visited Toronto, Cairo, Terre Haute and Chicago. They come to Cincinnati next Saturday aly are contemplating trips to Kansas Evansville, Ind.; Denver, Colo., and New | Orleans, La. The st.

The woes of the weinerwurst man were painfully depicted by one of the craft in the First District Police Court this morning. A 17-year-old boy named Frank Murray was on trial charged with disturbing the peace of Jacob Kuebel. The prosecuting witness is a German sausage dealer who at night carries A can in the western part of the city. He testified that about 11 o’clock last night he was attacked by Murray and a companion while on Chouteau avenue near Jefferson avenue. Murray approached from on side aff tried to snatch a sausage from the can. The dealer gave chase. AS soon as he was a dozen feet away the confed- erate took a handful of the sausages. Kuebel started out to recover the meat and Murray helped himself from thecan. Thén the two young miscreants approached to- gether. Murray grabbed the dealer’s fork and threatened to stick it into his side, while his companion brandished a wicked- looking pocket-knife. Officer Moseby of the Fifth District put in an appearance at this Juncture and arrested Murray, his com- panion making good to- + mbar the defendant $10 and costs. ln.

, THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 22, 1891. — OLD-TIME PRIZE FIGHT. THE SPECTATORS INDULGE IN A ROUGH- AND-TUMBLE BATTLE. Indoor Base Ball at Armory Hall To-Night —Dempsey Will Not Accept a Benefit— Racing Without. Betting — Sporting News of All Kinds. HAMMOND, Ind., Jan. 22.—One of the old time prize fights took place two miles south of this city last night between Con Murphy and Jim Doyle for a purse of $3825 and the gate receipts. Doyle won the fight. Both men were evenly matched at 159 pounds. In the first round Doyle won first blood and a knock down. Inthe second Murphy landed some hot ones on Doyle’s neck and he received slight punishment in re- turn. Just before they could come together again a man kicked Murphy in the stomach, anda general rough and tumble fight started on the outside, and before it was finished several spectators were badly punished. Inthe third round it was give andtake, with honors about even. In the fourth round, Murphy by a well direct- ed blow knocked Doyle down and through the ropes. In the fifth Murphy led and fell short, led again and was met with a blow that nearly put him tosleep. He made a desperate rally, but from this time on Doyle seeing his chance worked away on his weakened opponent and soon laid him out. Doyle was awarded the fight. Over $1,500 changed hands among the seventy-five people present. EDWARDS ON SLAVIN. Billy Madden has the following to say of the white heavy-weight champion of Australia: **Slavin is a great man. He is just as hard a hitter as John L. Sullivan, if not a harder one, and is remarkably clever. He is a very argumentative man—harder than nails and desperately game. To use his own words, de dont think Sullivan is electricity,’ and wants tofight him any wayfor any amount. He prefers Sullivan to Corbett. Iam 3 to match Slavin to box Sullivan six rounds for £1,000 a side. Arthur Cockburn of the Criterion Cafe, which is the swell resort over there for racing men, has placed a guarantee in my hands. Jack Lewis, an Aus- tralian champion steeplechase rider, is Slav- in's manager, and a good one he is too. I could tell you stories all day illustrative of Slavin’s argumentative character and his willingness to fight. When Slavin and Me- Auliffe sparred in Birmingham—that is the town, you know, the tough gang came from who tried to beat Slavin out of his fight with Smith—the Australian was hissed on his appearance. He stepped right to the front and said, This isa fighting town. You have got some fighters. Just send a few of em up here. What do you think of the defeat of Demp- sey by Fitzimmons?’’ Jam very sorry indeed. It’s another story of too good living. Ihope John L. will take warning by it. It’samiracie how Sullivan has held the championship all these years anyway, living the way he does. DEMPSEY DECLINES A BENEFIT. Jack Dempsey has declined to accept the benefit arranged for him in New Orleans. It was got up without his consent or knowledge, and when he learned of it he would not listen to the proposition. He also declines a testi- monial purse raised for him. Dempsey says he received the $1,000 of the Olympic Club purse intended for the loser, and he is entitled to and will accept no more. Fitzsimmons and Carroll wrote him that they had buried all ill-feeling and were at his service. The long New Zealander denies that Jim Hall ever whipped him, but declares that, on the other hand, he has whipped Hall, and the latter could not now be induced to enter a ring with him. Fitzsimmons also says that Mike Dooley is nota middleweight, but a heavyweight, fighting at 173 pounds. If Dooley can get down to 154 pounds the New Zealander will fight him, but he does not pro- pose to go against any heavyweights. PETER JACKSON ARRESTED, SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Jan. 21.—Peter Jack - son,colored, the Australian pugilis t, and Joe Bowers, who have been giving sparring ex- hibitions at the Tivoli Opera-house in this city, were arrested last night on a charge of violating the law which prohibits sparring exhibitions at any place where liquor is sold. Both pugilists were taken to the ean sta- tion and released on bail. INDOOR BASE BALL. Indoor base ball will be introduced tothe St. Louis public this evening at Armory Hall, Seventeenth and Pine streets. The opening promises to be a rousing success. The novelty of the entertainment is sufficient in itself to attracta large attendance, while people who have seen the sport say it is full of excitement and interest. In other cities indoor base ball has become very popular, ‘although t is only a creation of the present winter. It is particularly popular in Chicago, where it originated. That city has sixteen indoor base ball leagues, with a total membership of 100 clubs, and the games between the lead- ing teams are witnessed by as many people as turn out to the regular National League contests in the summer. The Armory Hall, where to-night’s game is to take place, is re- markably well adapted for the purpose, and the diamond has been laid out so that all the Spectators can obtain an excellent view of the play. Mayor Noonan will speak upon the sport, and also say some pleasant things a bout the national game as America’s popular pastime. He is as hearty an enthusiast of the game as there is in St. Louis. George W. Hancock of Chicago, the father of the indoor game, will, with George Jenney, the star all- round player of Chicago, be on hand to see the sport start off in good shape. The two teams have been practicing at the Armory, and they have got the points of the game down pretty fine. Pat Tebeau says the members of his team are like a lot of young colts, and they are heart and soul in the sport. Paul McSweeney’s All-St. Louis team is a good one, several of the best local players composing it. Capt. Comiskey will umpire the game, which will Start at 8:30 0’clock. The Armory doors will be open at70’clock. A band will play during the evening. The teams will be as follows: TEBEAU’S TEAM. Position. ALL Sr. LOUIS. — King ] wensdy 7 os ATHLETICS. The proposed match races between Darrin, the English professional runner, and Lon E. Myers will create a great deal of interest and will certainly draw large crowds of spec- tators. Darrin, the English professional, has a reputation for having been able to beat all other professional runners that have been matched against him. Asa matter of fact he has beaten,the best Americans and the best Englishmen at his distances, except that he has never yet raced against Myers. If Myers toes the mark in his old-time form itis almost a moral Certainty that he will win two out of the three events. Myers has run 888 anda traction of a yard in im. 55 2-5s. As far as the memory of present time chroniclers of ama- teur athletic performances extend, Darrin has never equaled this performance. Itisa well-known fact thatin addition to Myers’ form at the haif-mile tbat he has run the ere yards that ever been run by what chance ‘ing | but there is a bare possibility that the race would be a very close and exciting one at that distance, There is no dispute, however, that * Darrin is a remarkably fast ‘runner and that Myers will have to be in his very best condition at either the half mile, he 1,000 yards or the three-quarter milé to beat him. If Myers continues to run, history will repeat itself in his case as it has inthe cases of Hanlon and other men who wefe invincible when at their best, but were eventually beaten through competing after they had lost their best form, and ‘if Myers pulls sqccessfully through this series of contests he his laurels and let his record stand as it now stands, unparalleled in the annals of amateur or professional running in the world. CROSS-COUNTRY ASSOCIATIONS. The proposition made by E. C. Carter to establish sectional cross-country associa- tions throughout the country is certaiply a good one and should be carried out. Mr. Carter’s proposition, as I understand it, is to have Northern, Southern, Eastern and Western associations, with the National Cross-Country as the appellate body. The Western branch association could take in St. Louis and all points west of that point. The Southern branch association could take in Baltimore and all points south of Balti- more. The Northern branch association could take in New York City and vicinity and the Eastern branch association could take in Boston and vicinity. It is to be hoped that the cross-country enthusiasts throughout the country will act upon this suggestton of Mr. Carter’s and organize in the direction above indicated. There is no formof amateur sport that is more healthy and from which more pure genuine pleasure can be derived than from cross-country running and there is little or no reason to doubt that in years to come the sport will be very popular throughout the country. WINTER RACING. NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—There was no open book-making at Clifton yesterday tm conse- quence of the expressed intention of the New Jersey authorities to arrest any man who re- ceived a bet. A few bookmakers attempted to do a little business on the sly outside of the regular betting ring, but they did very little. Monday last Prosecutor Gourlay gave Mr. Engleman and associates to understand that no violations of the law would be toler- ated, and in consequence there was no rac- ing. Yesterday Mr. Engleman determined to carry on the racing without betting, and, despite the fact that it was known that spec- ulation would not be tolerated, 1,000 people assembied at the track. Engleman says he will continue to race,but as there is no money in the business without betting itis believed that he will soon tire of going down into his pocket. It is the $75 and $100 apiece paid by bookmakers for privileges that makes race tracks so profitable. Nosympathy is felt for the Clifton management, as their toleration of notoriously crooked racing Drought about the present trouble. .Guttenburg, @which is in Hudson County. will continue to run as usual, itis announced, although the tracks at Passaic, Monmouth and Union Counties have been closed.

ED CORRIGAN’S HORSES WILL COME. Ed Corrigan denies that he is to make war on the St. Louis Jockey Club. He says that he had a personal quarrel with President Green of the St. Louis Club, but now that the latter has retired he bears the association no III- will. Mr. Corrigan claims that it is neces- sary for his track to clash dates with the St. Louls meeting, but says it will do no harm to either association as there are enough horses in the West to give both tracks all they can accommodate. He even intends to enter some of his horses in the stakes of the St. Lou's Club he declares. SPORTING NOTES.

Brutality of a Negro Who Ruined a Girl and Then Deserted Her. Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Estep is- sued a warrant yesterday, charg- Nathaniel Black with assault and battery. Black is a burly negro, who runs as a fireman on the river steamers. Two weeks ago he brought a young mulatto girl, named Mary Sherman, from Cairo and then deserted her on the street. The girl found work as a domestic and roomed with her babe ‘in. the rear of 912 South Third «street. Tuesday Black put in an appearance at the girl’s room and demanded her money. Upon being re- fused he drew a knife and cut the woman on the forehead. He also struck. the babe against the bed, cuttinga gash in its head. Then he chased the woman out on the street. When she had gone he packed up her furniture and disappeared. When the girl re- turned with an officer, Black and the furni- ture were gone. **SEEN and read by all men, red every time is Salvation Oil. Only 25 cents a bottle. William Kaut Dead.

Only relatives were present at the ceremony, but a large reception followed at which the crowd of guests taxed the capacity of the spacious parlors. The bride wore a lovely gown of cream white satin brocade, en train, bordered with feather bands. The pointed corsage was made high, with medici collar of ostrich feathers, the elbow sleeves banded with the feather trimming. The bridal veil of tulle was con- fined by pearl pinsto her hair, and in her hand she carried a bouquet of lilies of the valley. Afanof white ostrich feathers and diamond brooch and ear-rings completed the pretty toilette. She was attended by her two sisters, the elder of whom wore white China silk and the younger wore pale blue China silk, both of them carrying bunches of roses.

It certainly is setting in earlier, and there are many more commercial travelers for Eastern houses in the city ht the present time than at the same period during previous seasons. The hotels are filled to overflowing, and the amount of business transacted is ex- ceptional. Buyers have not yet made their appearance to any considerable extent, but when they do come they will find the largest stock of goods on hand that has ever been seen in St. Louis. Sellers, however, are onthe ground in force and report that their business will exceed by from 20 to 35 per cent the sales of last year, which were larger than those of any previous season. The bulk of the trade has not been done yet, but more business has already been transacted than usually is completed before the middle of February. * A SPLENDID SHOWING. Inquiry among the wholesale dealers de- veloped the fact that the cause of the early commencement of the spring purchases is to be found in the growing tendency of merchants in the cities and towns tributary to St. Louis to deal with this city alone and to make no pur- chases in the East. The New York, Boston and Philadelphia houses formerly were com- petitors of St. Louls for the Southwestern trade, but this competition has gradually been dropping off and from all indications will be trifling during the present year. The tendency now is forthe Eastern houses to sell to St. Louis and for the goods to be dis- tributed from this point. A commercial traveler for one of the largest of the New York dry goods firms said: ‘‘In common with many others in our line of business we have about abandoned our Southwestern circuits and make this city our terminus. DRIVING AWAY COMPETITORS. For years we sent our salesmen to Texas, Arkansas, Kansas and Colorado, and we used to secure a great deal of the business. But lately we have found it dropping off, at first slowly, and then rapidly, and at length it has reached a point where there is little or no profit init, The reason for this is to be found in St. Louis competition. Few people realize how dangerous and formida- ble this is. I have done business in all parts of the West, and say from experi- ence that St. Louis merchants sell closer, do business on a smaller margin of profit and understand the conditions and demands of their tributary territory better than those of any city in the West; I had almost said of any city in the country. They are far superior in this respect to Chicago merchants, as is proved by the fact that scores of Eastern houses that have given up the attempt to eut into the St. Louis trade are still fighting in Chicago territory. Chicago has heretofore hada great advan- tage in freight rates, that city having been most unduly favored in this respect, but now this is changed. Instead of antagonizing st. Louis, we now wish to co-operate, and the result cannot fail to be beneficial at both ends of the line. ENLARGING Sr. LOUIS TRADE. A prominent wholesale merchant ofthis city, said: It would astonish many of the citizens if they could see some of the letters received by local business firms from the East. We have received assurances that some of our most formidable competitors will no longer at- tempt to operate in our territory, but will content themselves with selling goods to us, to be distributed from this city. Where there were five drummers from Eastern houses in the Southwest last year there will not be two during the coming season. This means a great increase of trade for St. Louis, and Is the explanation to be given of the presence of such an unusual number of Eastern salesmen in the city at the present time. Nearly all the Eastern wholesale houses have either entirely dispensed with their Southwestern drummers or largely reduced their force, while houses are trying to dis- pose of their goods in this city that pre- viously entirely ignored us. This will be of immense benefit tous, as it will enable not only the sales to be increased, but the pro- portionate expense can also be reduced, asa few men can now cover a territory that it required many to handle when Eastern com- petition had to be met at ev@ry turn. Our position as the distributing point for the en- tire Southwest is now acknowledged as it never was before, and the prospects for the future are most excellent.’’ crushed coke 708 Pine FoR grates use Pittsburg Devoy & Feuerborn, sole agents, street. A DISHONEST DRUG CLERK. 1 F. Griesbach Swears Out a Warrant Against an Employe. H. F. Griesbach, a druggist doing business at 3301 Easton avenue, was in the office of As- sistant Prosecuting Attorney Estep this morning witha complaint against a young man who had been inhis employ. He said that last Saturday he had engaged a 19-year- old boy named Alex C. Hodgman, living at 3842 Madison place. Yesterday morning when he appeared at the store Hodgman was gone. An examination of the premises showed that a number of small articles had also disap- peared; $7.25 was missing from the cash drawer, $2.25 fromthe cigar case, and 70 cents from the stamp case. A silver- handled um brella, a silk handkerchief, several books anda number of other insignificant effects were not to be found in their accustomed places. Young Hodgman cannot now be found.
