PARIS EXCITED OVER THE SUPPRESSION OF SARDOU’S PLAY, “THERMIDOR,” The Elections in Spain—Universal Suf- frage in Belgium—Politics in Canada— “The Papal Succession—Excitement at the English Court— The Primate of Hungary—Foreign Affairs. LONDON, Jan. 28.—The current reports in regard to Mr. Gladstone’s intended resigna- tion are associated in the public mind with the negotiations for the settlement ofthe Irish difficulties. It is intimated that, as Par- nell is evidently not going to obliterate him- self, Mr. Gladstone, who has virtually de- manded Parnell’s withdrawal, now proposes to get outof the dilemma by himself with- drawing and leaving the conduct of affairs to Sir William Harcourt, who has not committed himself seriously on the Parnell question. Gladstone, whatever his intention as tothe leadership, will not retire for the present, at least from the House of Commons. He will take an active partin debate, and proposes to vigorously advocate the bill repealing Catholic religious disabilities. | THE IRISH LEADERSHIP. LONDON, Jan. 28,—A dispatch from Man- chester says: The Parnellite leadership committee yesterday presented to Mr. Mc- Carthy an address in which, while expressing admiration for him personally, they strongly protested against his assuming the leader- ship and thus dividingthe Irish party. Mr. McCarthy, in a respectful reply, reminded the committee that the majority of the party supported him and urged him to accept the leadership. Nobody ‘more than himselfdeplored the unfortunate dissension in the party. He fully believed that his hearers were actuated by pariotism among them. That being so, he had no doubt that the difficulties would diminish and that the party will again become united. In the mean- time, he hopedthat each section would re- main independent of all external influence. He was confident, he added, that the contro- versy would eventually result in their se- curing all they had striven for in the past generation. INCURRED THE QUEEN’S DISPLEASURE. LONDON. Jan. 28.—Itis.said that Queen Vic- toria has set the seal of her displeasure on he Hon. Aubrey Fitzclarence, Her Majesty’s - third cousin, who receives £80 pounds a year as one ofthe gentlemen ushers of the court. The young man isthe great grandson of King William IV.,and on account of his relation- ship he has been allowed a@ good many privi- leges. Jt is said that he has gone so far as to make love to the Princess Maud of Wales, not altogether tothe dissatisfaction of the young lady, but much to the annoyance of the Queen and the Prince, who are said to have another arrangement in view. Maud has been relegated to her lessons,. and Aubrey, it is stated, has been told that if he wants his £80 to continue he must remember *the distinc- tion between legitimate and illegitimate royal pedigree. The stipendis quiet important to young Fitzclarence, who would otherwise have to do something useful for a living. GEN. BOOTH’S TOUR. LONDON, Jan. 28.—Gen. Booth proposes, about July, to visit Cape Colony and India to inspect personally the condition of the Salva- tion army in those regions. He will be ab- sent about nine months. CHAMBERLAIN AT BIRMINGHAM. LONDON, Jan. 28.—Ata Unionist meeting in Birmingham last night Mr. Joseph Chamber- lain said home rule was as dead as Queen Anne; that Gladstone must either aban- don it altogether, or accept all of Parnell’s demands. Home Secretary Mat- thews dwelt on the necessity of maintaining the Unionist alliance, as the Irish party would patch up their quarrel some way. The Papal Succession. ROME, Jan. 28.—The approaching, conclave of cardinals for the purpose of naming a suc- cessor to Pope Leo XIII. is the study of the Italian Government and the Vatican has been advised that the Government is busying itself with preparatory matters in order to prevent the election of a pope unfavorable to the official Government and favorable to France. The German and Italian press have indicated the opposition to the favorite Cardinals of France. There is more move- ment among those who wish to wield an influence in the conclave outside of the Vatican than among the members of the Vatican itself, as there all is serene ana quiet. Pope Leo enjoys good health, which is one reason for this serenity of manner or in- difference shown for the approaching con- clave, and it is now also understood that the sacred college is not free from the interfer- ence of high courts or cabinets. A prominent Cardinal, speaking of the situation, says: ‘*The veto of the monarchs to the name of any candidate has no longer any influence. The United States hasdone much to spread the Democratic doctrine in Europe and has had great influence in the transformation of Catholicism in Europe. Nor can the Cardinals be terrorized by the allied Govern- ment into doing their dictates. Perfect liber- ty will hereafter be enjoyed at all conclaves. The next conclave will be held in Venice or far from Rome, as the governments indicate that they will repeat their tactics of 1878 after the death of Pius IX. and attempt to mix in the deliberations of the high international Catholic Senate. There are plenty of candi- dates,but so far as learned there are no groups or sets, banded fora singleman. At present itis impossible to foresee who will be the next Pope. There is no acknowledged candi- date or candidates or groups which show any preference. THE CANDIDATES. **As to the election by the next conclave in Italy, the following Cardinals are named: Oardinal Rattaglini and Cardinal Capecel- atro, at Rome: Cardinal Rampolla and Car- dinal Monaco. Abroad are mentioned Man- ning, Gibbons and Layigerie. Manning and Gibbons have especially gained in ecclesias- tical opinion during these latter times. The _enlightened Catholic community considers the general acceptance of these two Princes of the church as the most adapted to the needs and to the conditions of these so com- plicated and so variable times.’’ Under extraordinary conditions, if the con- clave was held abroad, and it should meet in the midst of a European complication, it is to be presumed that the Cardinals would choose @ neutral foreign Pope, neither Roman, Aus- trian nor Italian. They would take a Bel- Cardinal or an American, an En- giishman or a Spaniard; in a word, acardinal bornina country that does not inspire international jqglousy. For exam- ple, Manning, Gibbons or Goossena de Malinci. The hypothesis of a foreign Pope, it must be admitted, presents itself more and more. Sep The following are the prominent impres- . sions in competent circles. In ordinary con- tions, ifthe Pope died to-morrow without © present conditions being transformed, it ely probable that the conclave of | ‘ ~ = > ’ 5 , ¢ oF, fs re . a 2 « : ? a : a . f ¢ Z id oe + 3 » os 1878 will repeat itself; that is to say, that the Corsican Cardinals, allied to the most mod- ern of the Roman and Italian Cardinals, would choose a conciliatory pope, modern and moderate. This Pope wlll probably be taken from among the cardinals of the province, the cardinals of the Curia being too divided to come to an agreement on a: Roman name. ' CAPT. CASATI’S BOOK. ROME, Jan. 28.—Capt. Casati’s work on Africa is shortly to appear in an English edi- tion. The Captain goes largely into the sub- ject of African products and what solls are best suited for cotton, sugar, etc., and it is believed his book will create a boom in African commerce and colonization. . “Thermidor’’ Suppressed. PARIS, Jan. 28.—‘‘Thermidor,’’ M. Victorien Sardou’s new play, was prohibited from ex- hibition at the Theater Francaise last night by the Government. There was an immense audience present when the»: fact was an- nounced, and they called again and again for the production of ‘‘Thermidor.’’ Much iil- feeling has been caused by the suppression. MEETING OF THE ACTORS. The societaires of the company of the The- ater Francaise met late last night to consider the situation growing out of the popular ex- citement over ‘‘Thermidor.’’ M. Coquelin spoke of leaving the theater, while Bartel was in despair because he cannot appear in ‘*Thermidor’’ at any other theater unless he: resigns his membership in the Theater Fran- caise company. The opinion was expressed, that the production of the play at an unsub- sidized theater would not provoke opposition on the part of the people, but it was doubted whether it could be made to pay. At Arcis- sur-Aube, the birthplace of Danton,a party of Reactionists, on hearing of the reception ac- corded to ‘‘Thermidor,’’ overturned the statue of the great revolutionist which stood in that.place. They did not,however, deface the statue, contenting themselves with affix- ing tothe pedestala placard bearing the in- scription, ‘‘Room to let.’’ M. OClareteith has received a letter fromthe students in which they emphatically and indignantly deny any responsibility for the ‘‘Thermidor’’ riots. Minister Constans had at first intended to protect ‘‘Thermidor,’’ but as the result ofa conference with the Ministers and the Prefect of Police it was finally determined to prohibit the performance. The Government is severely criticized for having given away to pressure from the Socialists. The Paris correspondent of the London Times telegraphing to his paper, speaks of the prohibition of ‘‘Thermidor’’ asa melan- choly and humiliating event, and as one which shows that the Government is merely the toolof Socialists and Radicals—a mask behind which anarmy of disorderis waiting its time to seize the power. He adds: ‘‘It is stated that the management of a Socialist paper distributed 200 tickets for Monday’s performance.’’ THE GERMAN EMBASSY BANQUET. PARIS, Jan. 28.—Count von Munster Leden- burg, the German Ambassador, presided last night at a banquet given at the German Em- bassy in honor of the birth of Emperor William. The Figaro this morn- ing, referring to this entertain- ment, says that Count von Munster in toast- ing the German Emperor, said: *‘We face now the prssent and the future. The present is auspicious and the future appears ina most favorable light. Germany has at her head a young, valiant monarch, desiring, for his people’s good, to preserve the peace of the world. When he ascended the throne it was feared that he had a warlike inclination. It is now proved that he strives to fulfill an eminently civilizing mission. No one knows better than the Emperor how indispensable peace is for this mission.’’ ° Politics in Canada. TORONTO, Ontario, Jan. 28.—At a private banquet given to Sir John A. Macdonald last night by his followersin this city, the Pre- mier delivered a short speech in response to the toast of his health. Inthe course of his remarks he announced that his Government would continue to stand by the policy of pro- tection, He referred to the fact that every measure of reciprocal trade that had been obtained by Canada from the United States had been got by the Conservatives and by Governments of which he was a member, and declared that he believed that there was room for extending our trade ona fair basis, and that there were things in which _we could en- large its bounds withoutinany way infring- ing on the national policy. SIR CHARLES TUPPER’S RETURN, There is much speculation as to the mean- ing of the return to Canada at the present time, of Sir Charles Tupper, Canadian High Commissioner tO England. The Ottawa cor- respondent of the Empire, the Government organ here, says it is understood that the ob- ject of his visit is to consult with the Domin- ion Governmentin reference to the export live-cattle trade and the Plimsoll agitation. The Ottawa correspondent of the Mail says he understands that Sir Charles will be the bearer of the opinions of Lord Salisbury on many questions which are interesting alike to Great Britain, Canada and the United States, and that he will probably take an active part in any ne- gotiation that may take place at Washington on reciprocity and kindred subjects. It is the general opinion, however, that Sir Charles has been called home to assist the Government at the coming general elections. A cable dispatch from London says the sud- denness of Sir Charles’ departure has aroused much conjecture there and adds that ali Sir Charles himself will say is, ‘‘lL am going to Ottawa at the request of the Domin- ion Government to discuss several important questions.’’ Universal Suffrage in Belgium. BRUSSELS, Jan. 28.—King Leopold is pre- paring, it is said, to take advanced ground on the suffrage question now agitating Belgium. If a majority cannot be secured fora revision ofthe constitution, which means universal suffrage, the King will dissolve the chambers and make an appeal to the people. It is be- lieved that a dissolution cannot well be avoided, as the line does not seem to be drawn clearly one way orthe other between the parties. The Elections in Spain. MADRID, Jan. 28.—Great excitement exists in thiscity over the approaching elections, and in Barcelona a public meeting in behalf of the Conservatives almost resulted ina ariot,the working people being either So- cialists or Liberals. The Government is ex-. erting every influence to secure a Conserva- tive victory, but it is difficult to foresee the result as universal suffrage is for the first time in operation at general elections. The Primate of Hungary. VIENNA, Jan. 2%.—The Emperor is reported to be in communication with Bishop Sstauch of Gross Varden, in regard”*to accepting the place of Prince Primate of Hungary, made vacant by the death of Cardinal Sisor. The Emperor is deeply grateful to Bishop Stauch for spiritual consultation at the time of Rudolph’s suicide, when the prelate stood at the head of the court inthe church aloof on account of the character of the act. Foreign News in Brief. The correspondent at Paris of the London Times asserts that the King of Portugal will sign the Mozambique charter, ‘which stipu- lates that English capital shall not be ad- mitted to the enterprise. ° Miss Eames, the American prima donna, will leave Paris for London, having signed an Garden : STRONG MEN WEPT. THE HEARTRENDING SCENES AT THE MAM- MOTH, PA., MINE DISASTER. One Hundred and Seven Bodies Reeov- ered by the Rescuing Party. . SEVENTEEN MORE STILLIN THE RUINS OF THE ILL-FATED SHAFT. The Cause of or How the Explosion Oc- curred Still a Mvstery—Fire Boss Smith’s Faithful Discharge of His Duties—A Mother’s Poignant Grief— Arrangements for the Burial of the Dead—Full Details. MAMMOTH, Pa., Jan. 27.—Fuller details of the Frick mine disaster here, an account of which was telegraphed to the Post-DISPATCH yesterday, are obtainable to-day. The loss of life is greater than first reported and it is now believed that 124 men were killed in’ the explosion. The mine is on fire and itis feared nothing can be done to save the remains of the dead men. As stated in previous dispatches Mammoth No. 1 is the shaft of one of the two mines of the H. C. Frick Coke Co. The shaft to the workings is 107 feet deep. No.2 con- nects with it under ground. From their beginning these two mines were noted for the absence of fire damp and the ordinary mine lamps were used by the men. At an early hour Fire Boss William Smith made his customary inspection and upon his return to the mouth of the shaft reported all well, GOING TO DEATH. One hundred and ten men went down to their work with their customary careless- ness. Afew minutes after 9 o’clocka dull, low rumbling was heard, and an instant spector Jenkins of the Second district on Jan. , 16, 1891. His report says: General condition of mine good, with 5,508 cubic feet air inlet. Interviews were had this morning with former owners of the Mammoth Mines, and Others whose business interests and duties require them to keep posted on the condition of every mine in the Gonnellsville coke region. Their statements agree in that there is abso- lutely no way to account for the accident. At no time has there ever been a suspicion of gas in the Mammoth Mine, and at this plant, as well as all others owned by the Frick Co., no expense has been spared to make their mines as safe as experience and science can make them. | PITY THE SUFFERING HEARTS. This horror has cast a gloom over the en- tire coke region, and this morning the little village of Mammoth is crowded with the sympathetic and curious from the surround- ing country. Ali of last night and yet this morning the workmen made their appear- mouth, bearing between them the mutilated remains of one or more ofthe victims. A building about forty yards distant was used as a morgue, Here the dead were washed and dressed, and a card bearing anumber tied to the clothing. They were then laid in rows ona table to await identifi- cation. By 10 0’clock the table was fully oc- cupied, the floors of an adjoining house were occupied, and the floor of a barn was cleared for the reception of the victims yet to be brought fromthe mine. At 1:30 o’clock an alarm was sounded and every person inthe village rushed to the shaft. The excitement was intense over the report that the mine was again on fire andthat the rescuing party had also perished. The men in the shaft also heard the alarm and dropping the bodies they were carrying, rushed tothe cage and were hoisted tothe surface, When it was discov- ered thatthe danger was past, the men he- roically returned to the work of getting the remains of their comrades Out of the pit. A HORRIBLE TASK. The work of cleaning the bodies and pre- paring them for idemtification was a horrible task. On one board. jay the body of a boy scarcely over 16 years old, while alongside lay a full-grown man, both horribly burned about the body, head and face. Some had the top of their heads wn off, others the face so disfigured that it was impossible to tell who they were, One man was indentified by having a portion later a blast of smoke and dust shot up from the mouth of the shafta hundred feet of his foot shot off while serving in the rebelarmy. Aman, apparently 18 years old, THE FRICK MINE 4T MAMMOTH, PA. SCENE OF THE EXPLOSION. into the air. The force of the explosion was felt clear through no.2. The mencame out of the shaft more or less shaken and rushed, for No. 1 shaft. A gang went down’ but was driven back by the fire damp, for such it was. The ventilator fans were set to work to clear the mine. Every wagon in the mine was torn to flinders, dead bodies were scattered everywhere, mangled and bruised almost beyond recognition. Sixty bodies were taken out up to midnight. About that time fire was discovered and work had to be suspended. DEAD BODIES RECOVERED. One hundred and seven bodies had been taken from the ill-fated No. lof Frick & Co. at Mammoth up to 10 o’clock this morning. It is estimated that the remains of at least sev- enteen more victims of yesterday’s explosion are stillin the pit, butitis thought that all will be out in a few hours. This catastrophe, while involving more than five times the loss of life occasioned by the Dunbar disaster, differsin many respects from the latter. At Dunbar the explosion set fire to the mine and the shaft for days and weeks was a roaring furnace, adding horrors to the great fatality. In yesterday’s occurrence this was not the case, and by the perfect working of the fan pure air was forced into the mine and the work of rescuing was per- mitted to begin at once. Fifty coffins ar- rived from Pittsburg this morning and fifty more will reach here to-night. An additional order for twenty-five more was sent this morning, The cause of the explosion has not yet been determined. The victims will be buried by the company. Many of the un- fortunates are Hungarians and will be sent to Scottdale for interment. THE CAUSE NOT KNOWN. An official of the Frick Co. said this morn- ing: ‘‘It may never be known how or why the explosion occurred, The accumulation of fire damp was probably the cause, but it was never known to exist in any quantity before; in fact, it may be said that the Mammoth mine has been free from damp. There is a theory that a pocket of natural gas was reached and that the operation of the ventil- ating fans now prevents any accumulation of it. The disaster has some remarkable feat- ures. It was as deadly, as sweeping and as complete as the sinking of a _ ship in mid-ocean. Its history is to be told by those who do not know it, for there is no tongue of all those who werein the open- ings of that part of the mine where the disas- ter occurred to describe the detafls. ‘‘It comes to you like some whirlwind, with blue tints ofa rainbow, and whenit bursts into flame it passes over you like a great log. God does not often let a man live totell what has happened tohim. Ifit catches you upright you are like a leafinatornado, andit rends the ribs of slate in the openings like the ribs of a straw rack.’’ Thatis what a miner, who has been in the coal mines thirty-five years, says of the ‘‘afterdamp,’’ the ‘‘black death’’ ofthe darkness and the silent echoing pas- sageways where men delve. Never in the history of American coal min- ing has there been such an extended ac- cident with such complete annihilation of all within its reach. The Mammoth mine has been notable as always being particularly free from gas. Fire Boss Smith,a man who who had worked in mines in Great Britain and this country for thirty years, made his usual careful inspection of all the rooms and headings atthe customary time—between 2 and 3 o’clock inthe morning. His duty was to enter every place where men worked and to mark upon the wall of the room or heading the sign of his approval—the figures of the day of the month. FIRE BOSS SMITH’S REPORT. PITTSBURG, Pa., Jan. 23.—Mr.H. O, Frick, owner of the Mammoth Mine No. 1, the scene of yesterday’s terrible explosion, has been in almost constant communication with his rep- resentatives at the pit since yesterday after- noon, Mr. Frick says this morning that he has private information tothe effect that up toanearly hour‘this morning 108 bodies had been removed from the shaft. Mr. Frick says that in all there were 160 men in the mine atthe timeof the accident, that nine escaped with their lives, some of them badly injured; the rest of the men were either killed outright or suffocated by the terrible afterdamp. Fire Boss Smith, body was so terribly mangled, had early yesterday morning filed the following report in the office of the company at the works: MAMMOTH, Jan. 27. To Thos. Lynch, General This is to certify that we, the undersigned, have this day, Jan. 27, 1891, examined the working places in Mammoth and found them to be ina fit condition hada hole from the top of his head clear through to his chin. Some had all the bones on one side of their hodies broken when they evidently had been hurled by the force of the explosion against the side of the mine. .One had his leg drawn up and it was impossible to straighten it, and im fact the bodies were found in all positions and conditions. Those who were taken from the mine first were close to the , on what is termed the level, while those taken out later and from what is termed the nip, were horribly burned and mMaimed. Now and then friends would come forward and identify a body. when it would be quickly encased in a coffin and properly marked, **MY POOR BOY!’’ One woman came and gazedinto the faces of the bodies on the table,and finally stopped, and with a heart-rending wail, began shak- ing the face and body ofa fine-looking young man who was her husband. She patted his face and smoothed his hair, all the time talk- ing rapidly in her own language, and her tears streaming down on his face. It wasa weird scene, all the dead lying there, a crowd surrounding them, and all under the flickering light of an oll lamp. An old man came along and said: ‘‘That’s my boy! my poor boy! let me take him home to his mother,’’ and he helped to place him ten- derly ina coffin. Towards morning the work of removing the bodies became much more difficult on ac- count of escaping gas, and every few minutes the physicians would be called upon to pre- scribe for some of the mettin the mins who were overcome by the gas. Manager Lynch says that he will have all the bodies out by noon, Straw Bleach Explosion. Rock FAuL3s, Ill... Jan. 28.—A large straw bleach last night blew up killing, John Myers and severely injuring George Zimmer, John Fidasand Henry Page. Three other work- men supposed to be in the mill, Oliver Miller, Henry Pattis and Wm. Bell, are missing. The money loss is $10,000. The Sterling Disaster. STERLING, Ill., Jan, 28.—The, Rock Falls paper mills at this place were completely de- molished by an explosion yesterday evening. John Meyers and Alonzo Bell were taken from the ruins dead and half a dozen men are miss- ing. Died in Great Agony. St. JOSEPH, Mo., Jan. 28.—Emma Molden, aged 3 years, drank halfa cup full of concen- trated lye and died after four hours of most terrible agony. C. F. FARNER CHARGED WITH ASSAULT. Restaurant Keeper William Cox Takes Out a Warrant Against Him. William Cox, the restaurant Keeper at 3425 Olive street, this afternoon appeared in Justice Oarroll’s court and swore to information charging C. F. Farner, the stove man at Fourteenth and Olark avenue, with assault and battery. Cox asserts that he went into Farner’s place of business yesterday afterndon to pay a biil. A dispute arose as to the amount, followed by angry words. ‘‘Youarea cheat, anyway,’’ said Mr. Far- ner. ., , ‘*You lie,’’ answered Mr. Cox. This was too much for the first spéaker, who immediately gave Cox a chance to back up his assertion physically. Blows fell thick and fast. There were no police to interfere and spoil the fun. Mr. Cox wentdown as a result of a powerful blowin the face. This ended the fight and Mr. Cox glided out of the storeand sought an apothecary. Notwith- standing this precaution, however, his eyes are in deep mourning to-day. He came down town in a closed carriage and requested that the matter be kept quiet, as he only wanted to ‘‘get even.’’ Farner was or- rested by Constable Pearce Murphy, but was immediately released on bond. He refused to talk The affair is being much talked over among the friends of the two men, both of whom are well known. The date of the trial has not yet been fixed upon, but when it comes up there will doubtless be some fun for the court lounger, A Missing Boy. Mrs. Bone of 2101 Eugenia street reports the disa ance with appalling fegularity at the shaft |. POORPEARL’SDEATH Miserable Ending of the Poor Girl’s Miserable Life, TWO SUICIDES INVESTIGATED BY THE CORONER TO-DAY. Four Hours of Torture and No Physician Called—Her Two Lovers Under Arrest —Sad Picture of Low Life in a Great City—H. J. Brown, a Commercial Trav- eler, Ends His Life To-Day. Pearl Wayne’s miserable existence came to a miserable end last night, and the poor girl now lies {n‘the Morgue, a subject for a Cor oner’s investigation, the man she lived with and a visitor, her latest lover, being held as prisoners by the police to await the result of the inquest. Shortly after 1 o’clock this morning Police Officers Gaffney and O’Brien were notified by one Tim Shea that Pearl had taken rough-on-rats at her room, in the rear of 919 North Ninth street, and upon arriving there they found her ina dying condition. She said that she was tired of her miserable existence and preferred .death to such a life. An ambulance was telephoned for and in a little while the unfortunate girl was being removedto the City Dispensary, but when the vehicle arrived there Pearl Wayne wasacorpse. The poison had been taken before 9 o’clock in thé evening in the presence of both of the men, Jack Cornell, with whom she had lived, and Tim Shea, a visitor, and as no doctor had been called and the police had not been notified until four hours after the deadly dose had been swal- lowed, both men were placed under arrest and locked up at the Third Distriet Station, where they were seen by a PoOst-DISPATCH reporter this forenoon. Tim said that he met the girl for the first time last Thurday evening and was at her home—if such a place can be called a home—all night. ‘*LES MISERABLES.”’ Last night he called again about 8 o’clock, and had been there only a few minutes when her fellow, or ‘‘solid man’’ as she called him,came. According to the stories of both men they had never met before, but they met now on good terms,and in a few minutes Jack Cornell lay down on the bed—the only bedof the room, and this the only room of the ‘‘home’’—and went to sleep, ‘fully conscious of the object of the stranger’s visit. A whole volume descriptive of low life ina large city is told in this one statement. Shea and Cornell are not more depraved than thousands of their fellow workmen. Toall appearances they are hard-working mechanics, one a gas- fitter and the other a tool sharpener, both of fair intelligence and education, and probably both associate with respectable people, ladies as well as gentlemen, and are invited to theirhomes. The little room occupied by Cornell and Wayne opens onto a parch, which isused in common by a dozen families, and the rooms of as many more families open into the same court, which is surrounded on all sides by three-story tenement houses. This is the home of more than a hundred people, fully half of them children. A life suchas that led by Pearl Wayne and Jack Oornell cannot but have a bad effect on the neighbors, no matter how religious or moral they are, or how strict they may be in their own families. THE LAST HOURS. Soon after Cornell’s arrival Pearl went out to a neighboring saloon fora drink, and re- turned with a bottle of whisky. Cornell had already enough and didn’t want any, while Shea claims that he is a temperance man and doesn’t drink. Pearldrankthe half pint of whisky alone, but first emptied Into the glass several spoonfuls of what she called her medicine for rheumatism, but which proved to have been rough-on- rats. After taking the mixture Pearl re- sumed her jovial disposition and joked with her new lover as if nothing unusual had hap- pened. Then she suddenly became very sick and went out on the porchand vomited. She was there for sometime and seemed to De in agony, and thiscontinued foran hour after she returned to the room, Cornell sleeping all the while on the bed. Shea says that he noticed the box that she had taken her medi- cine from on the bureau and that it was labeled ~- rough on rats. He asked her if she had taken rough on rats and she answered no, that she only used that box for her medicine. This allayed Shea’s suspicions, but when her vomiting became worse he waked up Cornell. WHY THEY DIDN’T GET A DOCTOR. They held a consultation on the case and decided that if the girl had really taken poison she had by this time thrown it all out and would soon be allright again. But she continued growing worse and finally, after midnight, they became alarmed and Cornell went fora doctor. Dr. Hermann wasn’t at home and a doctor on Morgan street, near Ninth street, wouldn’t or couldn’t come, Cornell says, and so he returned without a doctor. Pearl was crying for water to relieve her pain and they gave her cupful after cupful. Then she wanted laudanum, and as Cornell had often bought her laudanum to relieve her sufferings he started out again for it. He succeeded in getting the poison without a physician’s prescription, but in the meantime Shea had become more alarmed than ever and had called in the police so that the laudanum was not administered. SINGULAR COINCIDENCES. Shea and Cornell are about the same age, 2 years, and were both born and raised at Peoria, Ill., and both lived there until about two years ago, when they came to St. Louis. Capt. Joyce infers from these coincidences that the men are old acquaintances and that they have done a little lying in telling their stories about the death of Pearl Wayne. The girl was about 19 years old and was married to a man named Henry Morgan, who is now steamboating on the Lower Mississippi. She wasa native of Springfield, Ill., but was raised inthe South. Her parents are dead, and her only relative here is a sister, Cora Clark, who hasa room on Ninth street and Lucas avenue. Both Shea and Cornell have been out of work for sometime, but Shea expected to go to work again to-morrow for Mueller, the . fitter on Cass avenue. He formerly w for ueller, but his last regular employ- ment as a tter with the Laclede light Co. He d off, he says,last month on account of dull times. Cornell worked a year for the St. Louis Type Foundry, and after that sharpened tools for Fitzgerald, a contractor at Jefferson City. Cornell says that he commenced living with Pearl four months ago and that got along very well together and never a quarrel. She was tired of living, however, and talked of commit suicide . several times. The rent was due and she visited Evans’ second-hand store on Seventh, negr Walnut street, yesterday afternoon to borrow some money on her furniture, and the suppo- sition is that she could not get as much money as she wanted and decided to put an end to her troubles with poison. ah: A TRAVELING SALESMAN’S SUICIDE. TAKES HIS LIFE TO END BIS sUP- FERING. | H.J.Brown, a traveling salesman fora Han- H. J. BROWN / he had died a natural but a 2 5 DS ak is ae et rhs RIES _ a age ” nibal (Mo.) wholesale house, committed sul- | ceived by his attending physician after he had died proves that he took his own life. Brown had been for months suffering with a complication of diseases of the heart, kidneys and liver, and at times had great pain. Dr. Y. H. Bond had been attend- ing him for some time and was mak great progress in checking the disease, though he could not relieve the sufferings of his patient at all times. Brown often expressed a desire to die and have an end put to his sufferings and he evéntually carried out his wish with a egrim determination. Monday evening he told his wife that he was suffering severely with pain in his intestines but would go out and walk tothe barber shop and see if he could gain any relief. He was gone apout an hour and when he returned seemed to be eased of pain and in more cheerful spirits. It now transpires that,. just previous to leaving his house, Monday evening he wrotea letter to Dr. Bond and on the pretext of going to the barber-shop went out to mail the letter he had just written and buy the morphine with which he had taken his i iife. Tuesday morn- ing Mrs. Brown found her husband dead in bed. She at once summoned Dr. Bond but he found on his arrival that he could of no service. He believed at the time, as also did Mrs. Brown, that Mr. Brown’s troubles had takena turn for the worse during the night, and that he had died suddenly, something which was expected. It was not until this morning that Dr. Bond received the following pathetic letter, which explains all: MY DEAR DoctTorR—I am not able to walk and am confined to the house again. All medicine seems to do me no good, and of late it seems impossible for me to go through another night of suffering. I shall take an overdose of morphine to-night. Can’t you use some of my diseases asthe cause of death instead of suicide? I hate to haveit published tothe world as a suicide. If I should go through another night I would bearaving maniac. Yours, H. J. BROWN. Dr. Bond notified the Coroner ofthe facts immediately and Deputy Coroner Meade was sent to the family residence, 3702 Ev- ans avenue, at once to hold an inguest. There Dr. Bond testified that Brown had been almost aninvalid for months and the pain and worry at times made him delirious. Mrs. Brown substantiated the doctor’s statements and told of the incident of Monday evening when Mr. Brown went out on a pretext of goingto the barber shop and bought morphine. A verdict was rendered in accordance with the facts. Mr. Brown leavesa wife and three small children. THE LOCOMOTIVE FIREMEN. Chief Sargent Visits the City and Holdsa Conference. Last night F.. B. Sargent of Terre Haute, Ind. ; chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, arrived in the city and regiS8tered at Hurst’s. A meeting was held with closed doors in his room to-day, but the secrets of the order were closely guarded, and all present declined to give particulars of what transpired. Toa repre- sentative of the Post-DISPATCH Mr. Sargent said: ‘‘My visit here has no particular signifi- cance, being simply one of inspection. I have seen a number of members of the Brotherhood to-day and consulted with them in reference to matters of interest to the order. There are no complaints of the _ slightest general interest, and our relations with all St. Louis rafiroads, in fact with all railroads in the country ,are of the most cordial nature. The Brotherhood is in better condition than it ever was before, and is constantly growing in membership. I simply came here to ascertain if affairs were in a satisfactory condition. I find that they are, and that there is really nothing requiring attention.’’ Mr. Sargent will probably leave the city this evening. HAD A SMALL CAPITAL.

OntcaGeo, Ill., Jan. 28.—The body of Ben- jamin H. Campbell, the millionaire and Pres- ident of the Chicago Safe & Lock Co., who mysteriously disappeared from his home Nov. 238, was found in the Chicago River near the Rush street bridge, at 90’clock this morning. Mr. Campbell was sorely troubled over his business affairs at the time of his disappearance, and a few days afterward the Safe & Lock Co., of which he was the principal owner. was placed in the hands ofa receiver. The finding of Mr. Campbell’s body bears out the belief, enter- tained ever since he left his home, that he committed suicide. Thrown From His Wagon and Hurt. L. Shepard, a laborer, was loading a wagon with rock yesterday at the Luxemburg Quarry when the horses became frightened and ran away. Shepard attempted to stop the team but was knocked down. In falling he struck his head on a rock, cutting a severe gash over the right eye. The wagon was overturned and badly wrecked. Shepard was removed to Carondelet, where he had his wound dressed. . More Electric Motor Cars. _ The Southern Electric Railway Co. will re- ceiye twelve new motor cars in a few days. The reasons given for not running their elec- tric cars to the end of the line in Carondelet is that the company has only a limited num- ber of motors, and to run them all through to | the extreme southern portion of the city would cause a wait of nearly twenty minutes and Market and at a very rapid rate.

REPUBLICANS AND F. M. B.A. MEMBERS LIKELY TO MAKE A CHANGE, Judge Gresham and Congressman Billy Mason the Probable New Choice of the Republicans—Judge Peffer Selected by the Joint Session of the Kansas Legis lature— Cameron Burned in Effigy. SPRINGFIELD, Ill., Jan. 28.—The outlook for along struggle overthe Senatorship grows more ominous as the days pass. TheF. M. B. A.men now seem determined to control the situation at all hazards. They have re- ceived telegrams of encouragement from the Kansas Capital. Thig has braced them up wonderfully. Dr. Moore, whose election was secured by pledges to support Palmer, is reported to be wavering, but he said last night that such was not the case. The whple situation at the present isanything but roseate. The well- known Jack Tanner has gone to New York and Washington, and his parting words, ‘*practically nothing will be done until I re- turn,’’ convey a strong, odoriferous sug- gestion. The probable is that the Eastern protectionists are to be asked for funds to purchase the seat. Anything to defeat Palmer, say the Republicans. Gen. Palmer still retains confidence of success, but he now begins toseethat other considerations than principle have entered into the contest, The ¥. M. B. A. men continue to vote with the Republicans on all minor questions, and yes- terday refrained from voting against the force bill. While these actions are suggestive they may not bear. more than their face value. The galleries were crowded again yesterday afternoon and the voting went drearily on, There was not one incident to break the monotonous roll-calls. After the thirty-seventh ballot last evening, which resulted the same as all previous ones, a recess until 3 o’clock, but the farmer mem- bers voted with the Republicans to adjourn until to-morrow at noon. TO-DAY’S VOTES. The entire morning hour of the session in the House was taken up in discussion of the resolution of Dr. Moore,leader of the F. M. B. A. party. The resolution came over from yesterday and recites that the Illinois State Board of Railroad and Ware- house Commissioners failed to fulfill the purpose for which it was created, and that it was exclusively in the interest of cor- porations and designing politicians. Mr. Partridge of the Republican side sought to aimend the resolution by striking out this ac- cusation, but the Democrats sided in favor of Dr. Moore, and the amendment was lost. He then proposed to strike out the clause pro- viding for the election of the commissioners. by the accumulative system of voting, and on a motion to refer the whole subject to the Committee on Elections, the Republicans fillibustered until the matter was again laid over »by the arrival of the Senate for joint convention to ballot for United States Senator. The sen- atorial situation is unchanged up to this time, Mr. Streeter, the F.M. B.A. candi- date, is expected to-day, and it is understood that as soon as he arrives his party will confer with him regarding a change of candidates, It is reasonably certain thatthe Republicans will take a change of venue next week, when a Chicago man will probably be taken up. Judge Gresham and ex-Congressman Billy Mason are among those most talked of. The indications are that the Democrats will stand firm. But there are predictions that should a change be made by both the Democrats and the Republicans, the fight will be between two Chicago men, Five ballots were taken, making the forty- second, with no chahge. Ingalls and Peffer. TOPEKA, Kas., Jan. 28.—Senator Ingalls yes- terday wasacenter of interest, and was sur- rounded by hosts of friends anxious to express their sympathy for him. He will noé talk politics. Hesaid he had no plans for the future, but would remain in Kansas where his family was and where those who had died were buried. Judge Peffer was hard at work in his office and stood a siege all day. REPUDIATING INGALLS. WASHINGTON, D.

PINE RIDGE AGENCY, S.D.,Jan, 28 (via Rush- ville, Neb).—News of the wrecking of the military special train reached here yesterday morning. The first reports were wild exaggerations of the true facts and caused much excitement here, it being reported that some fifty of the soldiers had been killed. Later dispatches gave the particulars and Placed the loss of life at the cor- rect figures which, however, failed to remove the gloom cast oyer the agency by the sad occurrence. The two soldiers who were killed had performed good service while here and were universal favor- _ ites. There is much anxiety as to the condi- f tion of the wounded. The condition of affairs here femains un- changed, The military officers in charge of the agency, aided by those commanding the troops, are continuing the quiet investiga- tion of the agency affairs and hringing to light many facts that explain the discontent of the Indians and justifying their complaints of ill treatment and _ short issue of provisions and clothes. It is now certain that when Gen. Miles’ Indian delegation is neard at Washington there will be a startling exposure of the In- dian Bureau’s mismanagement. D, H. ROBERT. A SENSATION EXPLODED. PINE RIDGE AGENCY, 8. D,, via Rushviile, Neb., Jan. 28.—The reported disappearance of the correspondent of a Duluth paper is un- founded.

Sette, a missionary among the Indian tribes around Lake Winnepeg and Manitoba, writes that camps of Indians hunting on the east side of Lake Winnipeg, not far from Blood Vein River, near Doghead, were visited by a band of wolyes, about a hundred in number. They attacked the camps and killed many Indians and devoured them. One Indian cudgeledand killed twenty wolves; another Indian climbed upa tree with his gun and shot down twenty. One got upona stage which was not very high and the wolves got him down and devoured him. There is a great panic among the Indians in that quar- ter. The Indians say that there are no deer, consequently the wolves are mad with hun- ger. THE CHIPPEWAS DANCING. ST.

C., Jan. 28.—In the Say- ward case yesterday Mr. Carlisle, counsel for the petitioners, replying to the Attorney- General’s eontention that the Supreme Court has no power to issue a writ of prohibition to the Alaskan court, because itis not a district court of the United States, argued that when Congress created the judicial district of Alaska and established a district court there with powers similar to dfstrict courts of the U nited States, that the exercise of admiralty and maritime jurisdiction conferred upon that court was to be upon the same and within the same limits as already exercised by all other Dis- trict Courts, and Congress intended to place this Alaskan court, in respect to Admiralty jurisdiction, precisely on the footing of the other courts, and to subject its judgments in the same manner to the revision of the 8u- preme Court. Otherwise the Alaskan Court would be a Supreme Court, with greater powers in Admiralty cases than any District Court of the United States. Replying to the Attorney -General’s argument that the matter of the extent of the dominion of the United States in Behring Sea isa political question, Mr. Carlisle insisted that the question was not whether the judiciary will assume to over-rule the Executive and Congress ina position which they have taken against Great Britain, but whether the judiciary can avoid construing,in a case involving private rights, acts of Congress and a treaty, which are all parts of the supreme laws of the land and which leave to its construction the true meaing of the words: ‘‘Dominion of the United States in Behring Sea.’’ With the broader international question the court was not asked to concern itself; even that, he added, was a matter not between the United States and Great Britain, but between the United States and the civilized world, before which the Congress of the United States had distinetly refused to assert, by the mere force ofa municipallaw, any extent of dominion not recognized by the law of nations. THE FORCE BILL. WASHINGTON, D. C.,’ Jan. 28.—The Repub- licans who have warmly indorsed the force | bill are outspoken in their denunciations of Ingalls, Cameron and other Senators who were either absent when the vote affecting the measure was taken the other day or who voted with the Democrats.

OTHER ROADS MEET THE REDUCTION OF THE JACKSONVILLE SOUTHEASTERN. ied ——— That Road the Only East Side Line Bill- ing Freight Through to St. Louis, However—They Intend to Make a Cut to Through Points. . The cutin freight rates made Monday by the Jacksonville Southeastern Line to all points on their road, affects more or less every railroad on the east side of the river except the Mobile & Ohio, Cairo Short Tine and Cairo & 8t. Louis. The Wabash, Chicago & Alton, Big Four, Clover Leaf.and Air Line, are the lines most affected by the cut, however, and they will all meet it. Two of these roads—the Chicago & Altonand Wabash—met the rate yesterday, while the balance decided on the cut to-day. The St. Louis, Alton & &pring- field road will also meet it, but that line uses the Big Four tracks as far as Alton. There is another feature of the Jack- sonville-Southeastern cut, however, which the other roads have not met, and that is the through billing of frieght to St. Louis instead of East St. Louis. All other lines on the East ride of the river merely bill freight to East St. Louis and the consignee is bothered about getting it tothis side ofthe river. By ship- ping it right through to St.Louis the Jackson- ville Southeastern line relieve their patrons of much trouble. The system means the abolishment of the bridge arbitrary which amounts to’ 5 cents per 100 In freight of the first, second, third and fourth classes and 2 cents per 100 on freight of the fifth and sixth classes. The Jacksonville Southeastern carries its freight over the Merchants’ Bridge and is so far the only i iine which uses that bridge exclusively for its freight business. The line commenced using the bridge on Dec. 21, and as soon as the Merchants’ Terminal Line is completed to the Union Depot. the Jacksonville Southeastern will also haul its passengers overthe new bridge. Until then they will have tocontinue to use the old bridge for passenger traffic, POSITION OF THE MERCHANTS’ BRIDGE CoO. Maj, Rainwater of the Merchants’ Bridge & Terminal Co., in speaking of the matter to- day, said: ‘‘Our bridge has nothing what- ever todo with the cut. That is made by the Jacksonville Southeastern road on its own accounts, Otherroads have the same privyi- lege as it has to use the bridge. We make an open tariff’ and any line can avail itself oaf it if it soa desires. We wanted to give the merchants and shippers of St. Louis a bridge by means of which they could have their goods billed direct to St. Louls and not be compelled to bill them to Evst St. Louls, as though there was nosuch place as 8t. Louis onthe map. This we have already accomplished and hereafter you will see freight shipped direct to this city, We are not making any fight on. the old bridge and the present cut is inaugurated, as I have said, by the Jacksonyille South- ea stern line in its own responsibility. While that is the only road which at present uses our bridge exclusively for hayl- ing of freight other lines do sq when ordered by shippers to senditour way. We now haul about sixty carsaday over our bridge ex- clusiye of switching cars and when we work up toa business of 350 or 400 a day the bridge will be self-sustaining and pay interest on all its bonds, etc., from its earnings. Last year the other bridge averaged 1,400 carsaday. As yet weare not fully pre- pared for business, butare getting in shape as rapidly as possible and can already handle all that is offering. We shall soon be ready, however, to handle all the business that can possibly be given us, and it will not be long before we have con- nection with the Union Depot, so that we can haul the passenger trains for the roads as well as their treight trains. By sending their freight over our bridge merchants save two or three days’ time, as we bring the trains over direct, and they can get it imme- diately at the freight house, while on other side the facilities are cramped, and when shipped by the other bridge it is some time before freight getsthere. Besides the factories in the north end of the city will naturall y want to use our bridge, because we can reach them more conveniently than can the Bridge & Terminal Co.’’ MEANING OF THE CUT, Commercial Agent Bushnell of the Jackson- yille Southeastern line was asked the mean- ing of the cut which had been made and he replied: ‘‘We have made the cutin This city we found has been discriminated against so much in the matter of freight rates to Illinois points that Chicago has been doing all the business over there, Take Jack- sonville for instance it igs about twice as far from there to Chicago from’ there to &t. Louls, yet Chicago does nearly all the busi- ness because the merchants there secure better rates.

Important Contracts Entered Into by Colorado and New Mexico Ranchmen— Advantages of Misdouri as a Ripening Ground—The New Departure. The prospect that Western Missouri will be- come the great cattle fattening section of the West are now most excellent, owing tothe steps taken by a humber of range’owners in Colorado, Nebraska and New Mexico. Last night Charles Staples of Trin- idad, N. M., arrived in this city after having spent several weeks in Central and Southwestern Missouri, where he has been investigating the situation on behalf of an association of cattle raisers who are about to engage exclusively in the shipment of beef to Europe. ‘‘Our plan is,’’ said Mr. Staples, ‘‘to use the ranges as breeding grounds, and ripen our stock in Missouri. We have looked carefully over ‘alithe available territory and find none so suited to our purposes as Some parts of this State. ADVANTAGES OF MISSOURI. ‘*For cattle bred on the Northern plains Iowa isa good ripening ground, but the winters are liable to be too severe for Southern bred stock. Our Colorado and New Mexico cattle mature rapidly as far as frame and matronizing power is concerned, but our grasses do no not seem to have a fatten- ing effect, and our stock does not lay on fiesh as it should. The Northern grasses have more meat-making power, but the cold winters prevent rapid growth of young cattle, and there isa heavy loss every year among the calves. For a long time our practice has been to sell our yearlings and 2-year-olds to Wyoming and Dakota ranchmen, who fattened them on their rangesandthen soldthem. Many of these men never bred any cattle at all, relying on us to furnish their stock. There are several reasons why this method of doing business is no longer desirable. The trail has been closed, and we can no longer drive, but are obliged to ship, and the expense of this reduces the profitsto al- most nothing. Thenthe Northern ranches are reducing their stocks and donot wish to buy extensively from us. But the principal cause for the change of base is that we can do much better for ourselves by sending our cat- tle to be ripened in Missouri. CORN AND GRASS FEEDING. **In the first place it ison the way tothe * place of shipments, and freights are lower, because we practically ship direct, with a stoppage for ripening purposes in transit. Then six months on corn are better than two years on the best buffalo grass that ever grew. The winters are not severe, and our Southern bred cattle do not suffer as they do in the blizzard region. By sending them in the summer or fall to Missouri, and then shipping them inthe following summer, we can put more weight on them than is possible by two years’ grazing in the North, while we avoiiithe dangers of severe winters. The farmers are beginning to see that they can ripen our cattle more profita- bly thanthey canraise their own. Untila steeris 2years old it makes little difference what itis fedon so long as it has plenty of food of some kind. The _ differenca between a grass fed and a corn fed yearling is surprisingly small, and is not infrequently in favor of the grass fed animal raised in a warm climate, and with free range, as the frame, and therefore the meat-carrying power is likely to be more fully developed. It is only after this that corn-feeding begins to have its full effect, and then it puts on flesh very fast. FATTENING BEEVES. **It isa mere waste to feed cornto young cattle, and this fodder could be far more profitably employed in putting meat on rangebred stock. We have entered into con- tracts which will enable us to put at least 110,- 000 head on Missouri farms this year ,room be- ing obtained for them bythe farmers selling off their breeders and old stock. It was diffi- cult at first to induce the farmersto join in with us, but the results already accomplished with cattle sent to this State from the Indian Territory opened their eyes, and we are now in a position to state that Mis- § will be the great fattening ground for Colorado and New Mexico cattle. It should be remembered that every pound added after a certain point is so.much clear beef, the skeleton and refuse not increas- ing, but being about the same for fat and lean stock. What we have done fs only a__ start- er, as the traffic will be certain toincrease yearly. A great deal of land along the Ozarks, which is now consid- ered of little value, is admirably adapted to cattle that are strong enough to stand the oc- casional storms, although it is not a good breeding ground. The result of the new de- parture will be not only to immensely in- crease the beef output of Missouri, but it wit], aiso make St. Louis a great cattle market. adi Coughing Leads to Consumption.

Two Men Charged With Stealing Bag- gage From the Union Depot. Warrants for grand larceny were issued by Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Estep at the Four Courts this morning against Theodore R. Vincent and William Jones, who were taken into custody § yes- terday evening by Officers Schleifstein and Ourtin of the Central District, at 812 South Seventh street, where they were endeavoring to sell a quantity of ladies’ clothing, two large bundles of which they hadintheir possession. Their roomat the Internationa! Hotel, 514 South Seventh street, was searched and atrunk containing other garments found together with several bag- gage checks. The property was later identi- fied by Baggage Master Steele as having been stolen from the Union Depot early in the evening. The trunk is owned by Mrs. Kittering of Chicago, who arrived in St. Louis ona night train. It issupposed to have been obtained by means of the baggage racket. The operator goes to the baggage room and makes inqui concerning a trunk, givinga number whichhe knowsis not on hand. While the attendantis searching for the trunk he improves the opportunity to replace checks on small baggage with other checks, duplicate of whichare presented-by the confederate later in the evening. The stolen goods were valued at $500. TRIED TO 0 CUT A WOMAN. Robert Robinson Tried for a Murderous Assault.

In Illinois, on the other hand, Gen. PALMER’ secampaign was made on the most important principles indorsed by the Al- liance, and his victory was'seeured through the support of the farmers. The election | of Gen. PALMER would be almost as great a victory for the Alliance movement as was the defeat of INGALLS. ee me THE SIQUX INVESTIGATION. The special correspondence of the Post- DisPAToH from Pine Ridge for the past two days has been of unusual interest and im- portance. It has foreshadowed startling revelations of dishonesty and political cor- ruption in the management of the Indians and has given information of an attempt on the part of the Interior Department to prevent further disclosures and obtain con- trol of the Indian investigation which is to be made hereafter in Washington, It has also given the public an inkling of the determination of Gen. MILEs to thwart the purpose of the Interior officials and has From the information furnished by our staff correspondent there can be no doubt This intention was shrewdly defeated suppression of the truth himself with -proofs and a delegation mave of the Indian Bureau to discredit his statements.

B. with pensions and offices and the farmers with windy invectives against the Southern brigadiers, seasoned with dem- agogue palaver clearly out of line with his votes. His whole career has been marked by brilliant trickiness and by exhibitions of the most cynical contempt for principle, His success blinded him to latent forces be- neath him, at whose first upheaval his bladders break under him, and he sinks to rise no more, THE decision of the State Supreme Court inthe Turlington case, which was first published in yesterday’s Post-DiIsPATcH, settles the fate of Sheriff CRANMER’sS mur- derer unless that eely desperado should slip out of jail again. A prisoner who has escaped three times and has killed a sheriff since his first arrest is a good man to keep a sharp eye upon, It would be unfortunate to have the gallows cheated of so fit a victim. THE report of State Auditor SHIBERT fails to throw any light on one important subject which comes within the purview of his official duties, He dees not explain how it was that State Treasurer NOLAND succeeded in stealing over $30,000 from the treasury during a long period of time without discovery, when the law provides for the monthly examination of the Treas- urer’s books and moneys, —_—— oe —~ , j ¥ . ey : = ae ‘ —" > > a ’ : o j o 2. - : ae” ,* ‘ 7" ose ie . fi eS k , ae Se - ve % —> > . ‘ ree —- E i deed : a“ — , ia Red - ¢s ¥ 2 . : 2 . : el eae ee : i : Co” aa 5 : ae , . , " . . . =? . “ eo y * i - " . . je ‘ ; de t of the Posr- Reagipat y : t On.

THE WORD “FAMILY.” Miss Dodge’s Argument Before the Su- preme Court of Massachusetts. Boston, Mass., Jan. 28.—The full berich of the Supreme Court heard a novel case yester- day, and then retired to determine the strict meaning of the word ‘‘family.’’ The princi- pal argument was presented by a pretty, bright-eyed little woman, who did not pre- tend to know anything about law, but she was well posted as to her cause, for she was the plaintiff. She was Miss Caroline E, Dodge of Altenboro, and she wants to deadhead it over the Boston & Providence Division of the Old Colony Railway during the rest of her life. She declared thatin 1833 the Boston & Providence Railroad took a certain parcel of land belonging to her grandfather, J. C. Dodge, then of Altenboro; that by a vote of the directors ofthe railroadin 1837 the cor- poration accepted the debt of the lands and gave in consideration a ‘‘free ticket to J. C. Dodge and-fam ily.’’ The plaintiff claims that the words ‘‘and fariily’’ entitle her as granddaughter of J. ©. Dodge to a free passage for life. The defendants say that the word ‘‘family’’ only referred to those who lived in the immediate family of J. C. Dodge, and that the plaintiff never lived in his immediate family. Miss Dodge spoke in a full, clear voice, and although in her opening remarks she became entangled in the meshes of the legal net in which she found herself, she was courteously helped along by Chief Justice Field. Thencefor- ward it was smooth sailing. She quoted from the Old Testament, from old English authorities and dictionaries to prove that the term ‘‘and family’’ applied to the de- scendants of a person, and made an extended argument in support of her claim. The Budweiser Restaurant, Sixth, near Locust, is now under manage- ment of Mr. Pierre Lambert, who serves the best the market affords and does it promptly. SCARED THE INMATES. A Man Suffering From Morphine Poison- ing Alarms a Carr Street House. A man giving his name to the police as Joseph Hazen, but who is believed to be one O.T. Worman of Ozark, Mo., created a sen- sation at the house No. 608 Carr street, by what is believed to be an attempt at suicide, by taking morphine. He went toa roomin the house, and in the course of a conversation with one of the inmates, Effie Rooney, he told the girl that he had taken morphine andif he ‘‘croaked’’ he wanted his body sent tothe St. James Ho- tel, not to the Morgue. The girl became alarmed, and with another inmate of the house went tothe Third District Police Sta- tion and asked that an officer be sent to re- move the man. He was found asleep, and on being aroused said that he had taken five grains of morphine which had stupefied him because he had not eaten anything during the day. His wrist was also found gashed as though he had triedto cut an artery. He gave the officers a card upon which was printed **O. T. Wordin, Commander of Post No. 377, Department of Missouri, G. A. R., Ozark, Mo.,’’ but stated his name was Joseph Hazen He is thought to be Worman, however, andto have been in atte worn y at the convention of the Grand L od; ge, A.O. U. W.

MILLIONAIRE MACKAY ANGRY. He Knocks Down Mr. Bonyinge, His San Francisco Agent. ANCISCO, Cal., Jan. 28.—In the Ne- afternoon Millionaire John W. Mackay stalked into President Helli- man’s room and knocked down C. W. Bon- yinge, his confidentialagent. The men were separated before either could pull a revolver, but those who know both declare that this is notithe end of the trouble. Bonyinge came from England several years ago and has been Mackay’s chief business man here for several years. Helliman recently took charge of the Nevada Bank and a street report is that Bonyinge had played Mackay false ina recent deal. The street was full of rumors, but the persons chiefly interested refuse to talk.

Milwaukee Should Have Been Admitted to the Agsociation—Corbett Laughs at Mc- A ’s Challenge—A Compliment for the St. Louis Jockey Club. The Boston Association team is very anx- ious to retain its hold on Brouthers, he being one of the stockholders of the club, writes Foley from Boston. Brouthers owns $1,000 worth of stock, and Hardie Richardson a like amount, but thereds ne-possible chance for Richardson to play with the Association team, asthetriumvirs are all in favor of playing him onthe League team’s outfield. Connie Mack signed last December with the Boston P. L. Club, but after the recent meet- ingin New York, Manager Hanlon of the Pittsburg Club took a run into Massachusetts and corraled Mack for the Pittsburg Club of 1891. The late Boston Brotherhood Club,after being stripped of all their best players in order to secure an Association franchise,.are now feeling blue. as Thurman told President Prince that there would be notrouble in hold- ing Mack to his Boston contract. Mr. Thur- man is green in the base ball business, eise ne would not give Prince sommuch encourage- ment. Mack belongs to th@League and will wear a Pittsburg uniform net season unless the Pittsburg Club should. see fit to give him up. Heisa greatevery-day catcherand will strengthen Pittsburg in a position thgt has been weak for years. King Kelly is broke and looking for advance money, but he holds his head as high as if he werea millionaire. Prof. Clarkson pulls out $50 a week as a Harvard base ball instructor and wears diamonds, SHOULD HAVE TAKEN IN-MILWAUKEE. The following from an exchange contains a great deal of truth: The Milwaukee Base Ball Club manage- ment, which is making a great effort to break into the American Association, is made of the right stuff. Probably,in view of the offer made them, the Association would do well to take in Milwaukee instead of playing second fiddle to Spalding’steam in Chicago. The Milwaukee gentlemen, at the Association meeting in New York, offered to post a $10,000 bond in support oftheir claim that the at- tendance at Association games if played in this city would draw over two hundred thou- sand people. Canthe Association afford to overlook this, especially when the outlook in Chicago is not particularly bright? The Asso- ciation Club would not do much in Chicago on week days, and the Amateur League,a pow- erful organization witha great following, has entereda strong protest against Asso- ciation Sunday ball. In Milwaukee every- thing goes and the Sunday games will be a big feature. CHAMBERLAIN SCORED. The Cincinnati Enquirer contains avery se- vere article on ChambDerlain, the old St. Louis pitcher, who is now a member of the Colum- bus club. The Enquirer says: There seems to be little doubt but what Pitcher Elton Chamberlain was a party tothe skin prize-fight at Buffalo, by which a hotel clerk was robbed of $7,000. The means by which the ‘‘lamb’’ was ‘‘fleeced’’is known in the parlance of the profession as ‘*double crossed.’’ This is simply a polite way of designating a steal. ‘‘Double crossed’’ is a shade worse than highway robbery. The victim was induced to back a pugilist with the understanding that he had a sure thing. His money was all they were after, and when in the right man’s hands why, of course, the fighter he backed was Knocked out in short order. Then the whole gang, including the victor, the defeated, seconds and everybody else got ‘‘their piece.’’ It is charged that Chamberlain ‘‘got his bit’’ out of the steal. If he did he should be blacklisted. A ball- player that will wittingly take partin sucha disgraceful affair is not to be trusted. He is liable to throw games. There is noroomin the profession for men of his ilk. Throw them out.

Brown who lost his horses inthe Mississippi wreck, There was "not a large attendance, the weatherand tratk being unfavorable, but Brown won the first event “with the horse Hollywood, recently purchased from Tony Licolzi for $100, and this helped his finances somewhat.

NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—The sale of Senator Leland Stanford’s Palo Alto trotting young- sters opened at the American Institute build- ing yesterday, Peter C. Kellogg & Co. con- ducting it. Forty-three head of stock brought $41,745, an average of $978. Although the prices realized at the first day’s sale were not as high as in former years, they were nevertheless good sterling values. Five colts and two fillies by the great Electioneer, now dead, were among the offerings and although none of the seven had any records as young trotters, they brought $14,850,or an average of $2,121 per head. All of the illustrious sires’ progeny,were eagerly sought after except the 4-year-old out of Beatrice of thoroughbred Wild Idle. This colt went for $1,000, he having a bruised quarter which made him slightly lame. Andy Welch of Hartford paid $38,500 for Electrical, full brother to Express, record 2:21 and $2,300 for a bay filly sister to Gov. Stanford, record as 4-year-old of 2:23%. Both are 2-year-dlds., Thomas Wallace of Baltimore «gave $3,000 for another of Electioneer’s get, a colt out of thoroughbred Helpmate by Planet, and W. B. Dickerman, President of the New York Stock Exchange, paid $2,500 for a filly by Electioneer out of“Frolic by Willis’ Henry Olay. John H.

The New York Mail and Express contains the following favorable comments on the outlook for racing in the West and complimentary notice of the St. Louis management: ‘‘The constant growth of racing in the West is shown by the list of nominations to the stakes at Lexington. Turfmen evidently appreciate the action of the association in in- creasing the added money tothe stakes and handicaps. Many ofthe 2-year-old division that will appéar at the track of the Kentucky Association in the spring will bear watching by Eastern turf-goers, as they will un- doubtedly be sent East for the summer meetings. The fact that Sallie McClelland, Riley and others are entered at Lexington Is not proof that they will not race on the Atian- tic seaboard tracks during the spring. Pres- ident Rolla Wells of the St. Louis Jockey Club has announced to the multitude of thorougn- bred owners around the country that they will be permitted hereafter to winter their horses free of charge at the Fair Grounds. This measure taken by Mr. Wells will prove immensely popular with racing men, many of whom propose to take advantage of the y Offer at once.’’ THE M’GUIGAN ENTRIES. The causes of the refusal of the entries of Mrs. Wm. McGuigan are detailed inthe Lou- isville Courier-Journal as fellows: ‘ ‘The entries of Mrs. William McGuigan have been refused at Latonia, Lexington and Louisville. The inference was too plain that Mrs. McGuigan was merely acting in behalf of her husband, who wasruled off the track lastyear. She had applied for entrance for a number of ani- mals, especially in the 38-year-old events, from all these clubs. Suspicion was first aroused at Lexington about a week ago, After deliberate examination of the facts the assocli- ation found it necessary to exclude the horses from the races. The smell which McGuigan’s crooked work raised last year has not died out yet. He owned and run Dundee and Chimes and other winners. He went on through the season with his high-handed bribery until the fall meeting at Nashville. There he gct the quietus for a very dirty piece of work. Afterthat he was very particular in publicly announcing that he intended to sell out. He told it over and over again. Then he announced that he had sold his horses, every one. There was nothing else for him todo. Afteratime Mrs. McGuigan tried to enter the same horses under her name In the spring races, and the officials very naturally decided her ineligible.’’ THE RING. Jim Corbett very properly laughs at the challenge of big Joe McAuliffe to fight him. The young man says he does not consider the California giant in his class and thinks it will be time enough to fight defeated men when he has been vanquished himself. Until then he intends to look forward and not backward. McAuliffe is very wrathy at Corbett’s treatment of his challenge and as an evidence of his prowess and superiority over the clever young Cali- iornian Big Joe declares that once upona time, inafriendly set-to between them, he actually made Jim’s nose bleed. In view of this remarkable featitis difficult to under- stand how Corbett can refuse to fight him. Has not McAuliffe whipped Pat Killen, Frank Giover and alot of other selling-platers? It is true that Peter Jackson whipped him ina canter and Frank Patrick Slavin polished him off in two rounds, but then they were the only two real fighters Joe had ever met, and he was not used to their way of going. Just how good a pugilist Corbett is remains to be seen as he Is as yet almost a wholly untried quantity. There is no doubt about his cleverness as a boxer, and his gameness and generalship can only be discovered by matching him against aman whois good enough, as a pugilist, to administer punishmenttohim, Big; ungain- ly Joe McAuliffeis not the man, It has been aery clearly demonstrated that whatever else McAuliffe may be, he is nota fighter, and if there is nothing else which he can do better he is apt to have a hard time of it in this world, GIBBONS AND BOWEN. I met Andy Bowen in New Orleans, and had several talks with him, writes Macon. He is very swarthy, short and stont, and his friends tell me that he has made a wonderful fight with Jimmy Carroll. One of them said: ‘‘Two or three times it looked as if he had Jimmy whipped, but Jimmy was too leary for him. He let Andy make the going until he fell off a littlé tired, and then he beat him.’’ A New Yorker who was present said to me after- ward: ‘‘I will be much mistaken if that ain’tthe way Austin Gibbons will do. For ten or twelve rounds it will look as though he wasn’tinit. He will stick in his own corner ef the ring, as though he was afraid to leave it. Heain’t overly clever, but he can hit awful hard, and suddenly he’ll bang Mr. Bowen on the jaw and he’ll think a levee mule has kicked him. After that Austin will be init a good deal more than he was.’’ I don’t know how this will be, but I do know that Bowen does not expect any easy victory. ‘*] don’t say that I am sure to win,’’ said he to me, ‘‘butI dosay that I am going to do my best to get there.’’ I think he will. Bowen made a very good impression on the Northern visitors to the ‘Crescent City by his pleasant, gentlemanly manners. SENSIBLE SULLIVAN. John L. Sullivan showed a good deal of diplomatic tact in declining to fight again until Corbett, Jackson and Slavin had settled the question of precedence among themselves. After they have determined which of the trio is boss of the gang he will meet him if he is so disposed. The big fellow hasa large-sized chunck of tapioca in his present business,and he is wise in not jeopardizing it. Then again, there is sound sense in what hesays. He is now at the top of the tree in this country and there is little for him to gain in another fight. However, if Slavin and Mitchell come here in the immediate future they may induce him to change his plans, for John will not leave the country to themif they shakea fight at him indownright earnest. Weare likely toheara good deal of music about heavy- weights shortly. CONTEST BETWEEN BOWLING CLUBS. At the North 8t. Louis Turner Hall Bowling Alley an exciting contest of ten pins took place last between two well-known teams in North st. Louis. The rivalry which existed for some time finally resulted in a challenge which was promptly accepted, and the match took place as stated last night, Mr. Henry C. Meyeracted as referee on the Wenneker side and Mr. Chas. Priesmeyer for the Klein side. Promptly at 8 o’clock the game commenced in the midst of several hundred visitors and friends of both sides. The game-—was hotly contested, but Mr. Klein’s team was outmatched in every game. Wenneker’s teami made 4,857 points and Klein’s team made 4,438 points, a clear ma- jority for the Wenneker team of 419 pins. After the finish a banquet was served at the expense of the losing side, and while Mr. Klein and his team felt badly over their de- feat they took it good naturedly.

Mrs. W. B. Irwan, wife of an employe of the Wiggins Ferry Co., attempted suicide at 7 o’clock last night, by taking morphine ina room at the Green Tree Hotel, 310 South Sec- ond street, where herself, husband and a 7- year-old son were stopping. A quarrel with her husband caused the act. The woman was taken tothe City Hospital in an ambu- lance, andis in a critical condition. She is 82 years of age, and this is said to be the fifth time within a few weeks that she has attempted suicide by poison, Ona table be- side her bed at the hotel was found the fol- lowing note, addressed to Henry Juengling, the proprietor: ‘* Please take care of my dear little son and don’t send me to the Morgue. Keep me until my mother comes forme. She will come from Grafton, Ill., where I was born, -I have taken this for the manI love.’’ A Pleasing Sense Of health and strength renewed and of ease and comfort follows the use of Syrup of Figs, as it acts In harmony with nature to effectu- ally cleanse the system when costive or bil- ious.

At the adjourned meeting of the School Board last night, twelve members answered tothe rollcall, The meeting had been called for the purpose of revising the rules of the building department. Two-thirds of the members were not present and therefore the report from the committee was not called for. The Course of Study Committee was not ready to report, as Chairman Macklin saidthat the report prepared had been signed by only two members and, therefore, could not be pre- sented. The board adjourned without having transacted any business. The Teachers’ Committee met lace yester- day afternoon and accepted the resignation of Miss Christiana 8. Hyatt, third assistant at the Normal School. Mrs. Georgia Stephenson, second assistant at Peabody school, was . granted five weeks’ absence.

At the Four Courts they gave theimnames as Theodore Vincent and Wm. Jonesiand occupations as a railroad brakemanand painter. The bundlecontained dresses, silk wrappers, ladies’ underwear handkerchiefs and towels anda humber o Union Depot baggage checks were found on the prisoners. It wasalso discovered that Vincent had rented aroom at the Interna- tional Hotel, 514 South Seventh street, where atrunk identified as belonging to Mrs. Ida Kittinring of Chicago was found broken open.
