Paris, May 18.—Official dispatches from Tokio say that when the assault upon his Hie was made, the Cgarewiteh had crossed Lake Biwa near Kioto and had landed at Otsuo, on that lake; whence he proposed continuing his journey te Kioto, about twelve milesdistant. Shortly after the landing of the Crarewiltch, a native policeman named Tsuda Sanzo, a member of the sect of Samuria, noted for their uncompromising and fanat ical hostility to foreigners; approached the Kussian Prince, and Grawing his sabre, aimed a savage thrust at the head of tite heir to the throne of Russia. Fortunately the helmet worn by the Ozare- witch was so thick that the blade of the weapon only inflicted a‘7scalp wound some three inches in length and of m- significant depth. Before the fanatic could renew the attack he was seized by those about the person of the Prince and was speedily placed n confinement. Surgeons at once dressed the wound and with but Uttie delay the distinguished traveler took his seat in a special] train and departed for Kioto. When the news first reached Paris that a Japanese was the person who attempted to take the life of the Czarewitch it was generally regarded as curious. If the affair should base occurred in China nothing peculiar would have been noticed in the affair, as the relations between the two countries are rather strained. Just such an event as the one which has come to pass has been feared since the day the Prince left on his journey. The Imperial guards with His Highness have been very severe, and upon one occasion cut down a man because he approached the Prince with undue haste. PRINCE GEORGE FELLED THE ASSASSIN. ST. PETERSBURG, May 13.—The newspapers of this city warmly praise the gallantry of Prince George of Greece, the companion who felled the latter's agsatiant at Otsu, to the ground by hitting him over head with a heavy watking-stick, thus prevented the fanatic from inflicting a second and possibly more severe wound upon the heir to the Rus sian throne. The newspapers join in say- ing that the Eussian people will never forget this action upon the part of Prince (,eorge. The news of the danger ip which the (zvarewiltch had been placed much excitement throughout this city and there was great rejoicing when if was announced that de was mot has been charged ing notes.

Lesanow, Ind., May 13.—The strike of the Indiana Midland Rallway is beginning to as sume serious proportions. Heretofore the strikers have made no threats or violent Gemonstrations whatever, but have simply been peaceable and firm in their demand for wages due them, and blockading all trains between Waveland and Lebanon, except one engine and the United States mail coach. In- stead of the general manager making over- tures of peace he has been adding fuel to the flames by endeavoring to have the strikers arrested. The citizens to whom money is owing for board and provisions from the Midland employes have joined the strikers, and are threatening to tear up the track unless the money due them is met. FULTON COUNTY (ILL.) MINERS. Cantor, III., May -A general strike among the miners of Fulton County is now believed to be inevitable. The last miners ng out are the operatives at the Dumferm- ne mines. These strikers say they would not have gone out had not a reduction of @ per cent been ordered. The miners subse- quently agreed to return if the White Breast Co.’s representative would grant them some concessions inthe rent of the last tenement houses built and a reduction of 10 per cent on the price of powder and the same on coal for household use. Powder at $2.4 a keg is said by them to be exorbitant. Miners are charged $1.78 per ton for coal, while the employers give only die for mining. The miners say that there are many other unnecessary and burdensome demands made. UNITED MINE-WORKERS. STREATOR, III., May B. -The State Conven tion of the United Mine-Workers is in session here with representatives present from ail parts of the State except the southern sec- tion.

Many towns and villages are threatened. Thompsonville is not on tirely out of danger, but the citizens are back firing around the ton and doing everything possible to prevent it getting into the village. Warren’s roliway, eight miles north of here, is in im- mediate danger should the wind shift to the north. To-day several hundred came from the country with the same story—that of losing all buildings and their contents and escaping with what they had on their backs. é Last night Mr. Johnson, near Branch, left his home for a short time, and on his return found his barn and outbuildings were im a short time to be destroyed, He immediately set to work to fight the fire but Griven away by the intense heat. It is a pitiful sight to see the conditions in thousands of people are placed. The towns along the Frankfort & Southwestern Katiway are in danger as the fires are reported along the entire road. The fires west of Manistee Junction are out and no more is feared in that direction. Stern's Camp, six miles west, suffered a large loss after a hard fight for three Gays. In some cases assistance has been asked of ratiway companies for the fire sufferers to be transported to places had friends, they not being able to @ more than the clothing they wore. At Station, three miles from here, a tract miles long and three miles wide has been burned over, destroying everything. Four farm houses and barns were burned. At Paris, the entire town has frequently been called out to fight the fire in order to save the town. The poor settlers hereabouts have been driven from home saving absolutely nothing.

The friends of Noland are talking quite vigorously to-day om ac- count of the interview with M. A. Fanning, late the Governor’s Secretary, published yes- terday. In view of the presentation which he makes of the Governor’s side of the case, they are disposed to tell a great deal that was mot known before, and some of the stories are heard are interesting. . WILL ALL COMB TO LIGHT. . One man who is familiar with many of the Qetaus of the case said: I the pers continue to agitate this question will eventually bring out the . Whole truth and if they do they will find a bigger sensation tn the Noland defalcation than they suppose. It may be that they will find out who played in the poker game with d Noland and who won the money. I think there would be some surprises if that was all known, for men whose names have never been connected with the affair, men who occupy prominent if not public positions, won what Noland lost. The fact of the matter is that the stealing had been going on for a much longer time than any one supposed. Noland was playing — with the State’s money when Seibert r. Ido not mean to reflect on Zauber but Noland imposed on him. Seibert * anything about book-keep- 2 . what he learned in office, fle Noland is an expert book-keeper. The way that Noland worked it was this: Being chief clerk he received and had charge of the remittances from the County Treasurers and when the money would come from the counties he would put enou cash in the vault to cover the 3 ge and hold back the credit until a remittance came from another county. Then the cash from the last would go inthe vault and the credit would be entered from the former. By hold- ing back credits he was able to keep the cash straight, and when Seibert went out of the Treasury into the Auditor’s office the committee examined his books and found them correct. So far as Seibert was con- cerned, they were absolutely correct, but Noland was holding out credits which Seibert knew nothing about. I shall never forget Noland’s anxiety when the convention which nominated him met. He was the most nervous man I ever knew, but it was all attributed to the fact that he was a candidate. I understand now why he was nervous, and lam glad that he was nominat- ed because the blame has fallen where it be- longs, on Noland alone.’’ One of Rd Noland's friends who does not wish to have his name appear in the contro- versy said to-day: If the statements made by Charley Noland in his interview are investigated, it will be found that they are correct, at least this far, that while Francis may not have promised tolet Ed Noland go free if the money was paid back he certainly assisted in creating that impression and he did not correct it. The pian of Noland and his friends was to raise the money, put it back in the treasury and then a month or 60 later to have Ed resigh and go into the insurance business and the matter was to have remained a dark secret. That was the theory on which they were working and Francis and his friends khew it and never corrected it. The Noland’s wanted to save Ed. The others wanted to save the Democratic party. There are a number of facts, aside from mere state- ments, which will corroborate what I say. In the first place, none but Democrats were invited to the meeting of bondsmen which was held at the Lindell Hotel. At that meeting were Col. John H. Overall and Mr. O. O. Mamtt. They were not on No- ljand's bond and there was no reason for their presence unless they represented the Gov- ernor. They did not say that they repre- sented him, butit was generally understood that they did, Mr. Mamtt offered to put up a portion of the money. Was that simply to make ft good to the State? No such offer as that would have been made unless Missouri was to be saved the disgrace ofa defaulting Demo- cratic Treasurer, and that would not be saved ifthe defaication was to be made public as soon as the money was paid in. The agreement was reached at that meeting to putupthe money but many of the bonds- men were from the country and had not brought their portion with them. They could not draw it from the Danks here without being indorsed, sothey made out their drafts and gave them to Col, Overall who had them cashed. It was at this time that John O’Day flunked, and when he fatled to come up with his part the scheme fell through and Cl. Overall returned the money tothe men who had paid it. That is the inside history of that meeting and its result. THEY AGREED ON A CIPHER. Now there is another thing which has mever been made known, but it borders on the sensational. Before Col. Overali left Jef- ferson City there was a cipher arranged and he was given a key to it. this cipher Gov. Francis was to be in- formed of the action of the bondsmen, ican’t give you all the cipher, for I don’t Know it all, but one word and its meaning I do know. It the money was ny up and in the hands of whoever might be selected to take it to Jefferson City, the word Moose“ was to be telegraphed to the Gov- ernor, and from that he would know that the money was to be paid and the whole matter Was tobe hushed up. Francis, Fanning and Overall had their cipher; who else had it I don't know. “If Charley Noland thinks that there was Hotel Men’s Convention.

C., May 18.—A special from New York says: Secretary Blame is resting comfortably this morning at his daughter’s residence in this city. Dr. Dennis, his phy- sician, called at the house at 10 o’clock and had a consultation with the distinguished statesman’s wife, the result of which was the decision that under all the circumstances it would be jadicious for Blaine to remain in this city for the balance of the week before proceeding to Washington. Amorning paper says that the doctor has positively forbidden Mr. Blaine to return to his duties. He says he must not think of work for two months, or work might become an impossibility. Mr. Damrosch stated that it was likely Mr. Blaine would go to Maine for the rest and quiet he so much needed, WAITING FOR ORDERS, THE CUTTER RUSH HAS NOT RECEIVED NER IN- STRUCTIONS. WASHINGTON, D.

Carlyle Harris Must Answer for the Death of His Wife. MARY HELEN POTTS’ SECRET MARRIAGE AND ITS TRAGIC SEQUEL. The Young Medical Student Indicted by the Grané-Jury To-Day—Vermont Pre- sents a Oase of Arsenic, Inheritance and Suspected Heirs-—The Sheedy Trial. New Yorn, May 18.—The District Attorney yesterday received a report of the result of the chemical analysis of the stomach of Mary Helen Potts- Harris, who it is suspected was poisoned to death by her husband, Carlyle W. Harris, the young medicai student. The re- port was frpm Prof. R. A. Witthaus, but what the analysis revealed is not made public. Since his arrest Harris has been in the Tombs. His has been set for ex- amination a gumder of times, but because Prof. Witthaus’ report had not been re- ceived, it wag each time postponed. The Dis- trict Attorney has notified Harris’ counsel that the examination would take place be- fore Judge Fitzgerald on Thursday. It is said tha the meantime the case against Harris will be presented to the Grand- jury. The victim in this case died suddenly in this city at the Comstock Finishing School on the morning of Feb. 1. She was known as Helen Potts. She had suffered from insomnia and had taken an opium prescription given her by a friend who was also a medical student. Since then it has been divuiged that the young medical student, Carlyle W. Harris, was the husband of the dead girl; that a secret mar- riage had taken place in February, 1890; that a religious ceremony was to have followed it on the frst, a | , which was rapidly approaching, that Harris had tried in every way to avoid this and had repeatedly post- poned the second ceremony, when it was urged by the girl’s mother, who had discov- ered the truth, and that he bad openly ex- pressed regret that he had married at all. Also that in view of these circumstances the mother, Mrs. Geo, Potts, had openly charged Harris with substituting for the pills first given a capsule containing a large amount of optum, and thereby deliberately bringing about the death of his young wife. It is an 112 Sige and if the Grand- jury finds an ctment against Harris the trial will undoubtedly prove sensational, INDICTED FOR MURDER. 2p. m,—The Grand-jury has found an in- dictment of murder in the first degree against Carlyle Harris, the medical student, who administerad morphme to his wife a 8 Harris, from the effects of which she died. BY THE POPULAR METHOD. VERMONT PRESENTS A CASE OF “ARSENIC, .- ; HERITANCE AND SUSPECTED HEIRS. RUTLAND, Vt., May 18.—Theodcre Hunter of Crown Point, Essex County, on the shores of Lake Champiaia, Gieda few weeks ago, and immediately r there was Offered for pro- bate a will purported to have been drawn by the deceased. Annie Murray of Munville, Who had been housekeeper for Hunter, recetved the greater share of the estate, which is a valuable one. She was also made executrix. Relatives of the testator, suspecting something wrong, began an in- vestigation, by which it was ascertained that the handwriting in the will was of doubtful authenticity and very probably a forgery. Rumors that Hunter had been-poisoned also gained currency when it was also learned that Miss Murray had purchased arsenic at the village drug store. The evidence of foul play became so con- vincing that, in order to satisfy the public — the Coroner ordered the body dis- rred Miss Mur? ay, the houseKeeper, now admits that she bought some arsenic, but claims it was to poison rats. She also stated that she prepared some of the poison shortly before Mr. Hunter’s death and gave n to him to carry to the barn. She says that when he was sick she asked Mr. Hunter if he was quite sure he had not taken some of the tH 111 er eee : : 1 } di rE is . 0 a . 8 * 4 8 J ** * * nee . * * 0 an : humedand arsenic found in the stomach. The detectives were at work on the case, and Monday McFarland, a negro barber and gen- eral supernumerary around the Sheedy house, was arrested for using the club upon Mr. Sheedy’s head with such deadly effect. McFariand, under a fire of questions, confessed his connection with the crime and said that Mrs. Sheedy had promi to give him $10,000 for the commis- sion of the crime. According to McFarland’s confession he was filled up on. whisky and then told to commit the crime, which he did. Mrs. Sheedy was at one time rather too well known here, but since her marriage to Sheedy has been rather quiet, seldom going out. The theory is that she desired to rid herself of her husband, get his property, and goto an old lover. EAST ST. LOUIS AND BELLEVILLE. Broadway ta Be Reconstructed—News Across the Bridge.

BOILERMAKERS’ CONVENTION. Proceedings at the Second Day’s Conven- tion—Action of the Brotherhood. The second day’s meeting of the American Bollermakers’ Association convened this morning in the ladies’ ordinary of the Lindell Hotel. At 10:15 President Lappan called the convention to order, and after the minutes of the meeting were read and approved the report of the committee an materials and tests was presented. This report was rather a lengthy document of a technical nature. In it the different thicknesses of boilers for considered, were made, and the subject of machine and hand riveting wastakenup. This last sub- ject provoked not a little discussion, and brought to light great differences of opinion. There were warm advocates of both the machine and hand riveting sys- tems on the floor, and both expressed their views at length. It was finally decided to adopt the report of the committee, with the exception of that part relating to riveting. Consideration of this matter was accounts of the treasurer had been made, and everything found correct, whereupon it was unanimousiy voted that the re- port be adopted and approved. Mr. W. Ritchie of Hamilton, O., the Me- chanical Commissioner of the Chi Worid's Fair, was invited to address convention on the subject of the mechanical features of the Fair, instead of which he read a very lengthy statistical paper relating the ea oe had been made in preparing the site the amount of money that had beed raised and would de closed raised, and with a eulogy on 1 Davis.

President Hammon’s Address on the Growth of the Society—Rev. Edwards on Why the League Should be Denom:- national—Meeting of the Board of Con- trol—The Programme. The district convention of the Epworth League was opened in Trinity M. B. Church at Tenth and North Market streets at 9:30 o'clock this morning. The majority of the lcleogates present were young ladies repre- senting leagues in the district, which com- prises all leagues in St. Louis and on the Iron Mountain Rallroad to the northern line of Ar- kansas. e The meeting was opened with prayer by Rev. J. P. Mariott, pastor of Trinity M. E. Church. President W. H. Hammon took the chair, and in the a- once of the Recording Secretary Rev. James was elected to act tem- porarily. A Committee on Credentials, composed of Rev. Frank Lenig, Mrs. James and Miss Me- Donald, was appointed hy President Ham- mon. The committee reported having re- ceived credentials from the following chap- ters, giving the names of the delegates, most of whom were present: THE DELEGATES. Harlem Place Chapter— Rev. O. C. James, Mrs. C. O. James, Miss M. Hoppen, Miss Lillie Edgar. Clifton Heights Ohapter—Rev. B. F. Stiles, Miss Ada McDonald, Miss Oarrie Fry, Miss N. Baucon. Goode Avenue Chapter —- Rev. Frank Lenig, Miss Sarah Neff, Miss Daisy M. Hull, J. G. Field. Trinity M. E. Church- Rev. J. P. Mariatt, Miss Jennie Moore. Carondelet Chapter— George Philley, Miss Lulu Pickering, Earl Smith, Nettie Bird. Water Tower Chapter—Kev. J. F. Carring- ton, Mrs. M. Witter, Mrs. J. F. Carrington, Harry Menown. De Soto Chapter—Rev. D. W. Crow, Miss Jessie Harris, Stephen Smith, Miss Minnie Robertson, J. R. Sutton and Miss Nellie Butcher, Festus Chapter—N. D. Sweeney. Though the majority of the delegates were present, they did not compose a very large body, including the members of the Board of Control and church members. This fact caused President Hammon to read a reso- lution offered by a delegate to the effect that all members of the Epworth League be invitedto theannual meetings and have a voice in the affairs, but shall not vote and that all members of young people’s organizations in the churches also be invited to attend. Rev. J. P. Mariott{said he favored the reso- lution for the reason that the restrictions as to the number of delegates for each chapter necessarily made the body in convention small when it should be large and representative. Rev. Frank Lenig opposed the resolution, saying a convention should be held bya delegated body and not by a conglomerate mass of members ofthe league and other societies. No more progress could be madebya large body than by a small one, and numbers counted for nothing in a small body of earnest workers. The resolution was lost. The attempt to allow all members of the league equal voice inthe convention except to vote was made last year and defeated. PRESIDENT HAMMOND’S ANNUAL REPORT. President Hammond then read his annual report. He said there were many reasons why Epworth Leaguers should con- gratulate themselves. ‘The success and growth of their organigation had been phenomenal, Froma small chapter organ- ized three years ago, the league had grown throughout the United States until it now had 6,000 chapters and 400,000 members, and will have over 1,000 000 members ifthe ratio of increase is kept up for the next year. The objects of the league, he said, were to teach the members the principles and tenets of the Methodist Episcopal Church and he was proud to say that there were now 400,000 earnest students being taught th principles. . Remarks on the growth of the young socie- ty, the good it could accomplish in the church and why all young Methodists should become members, were made dy Bishop Thomas Bowman, Bishop J. M. Fitegerald, Rev. M. D. Carrell and Rev. Prentiss, members of the Board of Control. The event of the morning session was the paper read by Rev. Arthur Edwards, D.

A special commissioner’s sale ofa tract of very elegant residence property, located just beyond the line dividing the city from the county of st. Louis, directly west of the bus!- ness center, attracted a big crowd of specu- lators and other people anxious to learn something of the value of land out in that new and interesting territory over which this city is spreading. Festus J. Wade was the special commissioner appointed to eee oe the property, and it was sold by firm, the Hammett-Anderson-Wade Real — Oo., under direction of the court in RinKel etal. & entitled Rickart et al. vs. Property embracesa tract of 25 26-100 acres, through the eastern portion of which N the Wabash Railway.

Hesel, Haynes, Phil Chew and F. A McKee then entered into competition for the prize, the possession of which had been upon and anticipated by the representatives of two or more syndicates already formed to buy the prop- erty. By easy stretches of $25to $100 each, the bids rose up to $36,000 when the land was knocked down by wuo'n start er“ to Mr. F. A. McKee. The purchaser is a son-in-law of Mrs. Suter, who is related by marriage to the Rinkel family, and who also owns a great deal of very hand- some residence property adjoining the site she bought to-day, both onthe south and west. The sale of this property at such a price and under such circumstances indicates the value of the **Hillside’’ subdivision of the same ‘locality. Before the crowd dispersed the Hammett- Anderson-Wade Real Estate Co. put up an- other piece of ground at auction. A plat of 200x282 feet situate at the southwest corner Of Easton and Hamilton avenues, immediately south of Mt. Auburn, a new subdivision now being prepared for the mar- ket. There was very brisk competition for this ground. It started under $4,000 and was knocked down for $5,625 to Adam Ottenstein. WATSON’S FRUIT HILL. Construction work now under way along the line of the st. Louis & Suburban Railway for changing the road toa double-track elec- tric railway is stimulating a very active de- mand for all low-price property that is held under $15 a foot anywhere near the route, and lots that are held above that figure have been advanced also in anticipation of the bene- ficial change which will follow the improved method of rapid transit. In fact, there are no eligible building sites any where along the line within the city limits that can be bought at $i5a foot, but just beyond the boundary and within a few hundred feetofthe double track there are lots in the Watson Fruit Hill subdivison, high ground, which may yet be fbought within the figures named. Asthe indica - tion of enlancing values out that way the firm of A. K. Florida & Co. report the sale of 100x220 feet ot ground on the south side of Central avenue, 100 feet east of Emmett, near Gambileton Station at 38186 a foot, from Mrs. M. E. Flegan to D. C. Thomson. This ig much the highest price that has yet been paid for ground in that locality. The Fruit Hill tract is just beyond this, laying between Page and Ridge avenues. Florida & Co. also report the following Kennerly avenue—South side, 230 feet east of Marcus, at $17.50 per foot, from W. P. Oros- white to F. A. Becker.

The administrator and trustee’s sale of Main and Second street property conducted yesterday afternoon by the Hammett-Ander- son-Wade Real Estate Oo. attracted a good deal of interest on account of the near prox- imity of the realty offered to C., B. & C. and the Merchants’ Bridge railway terminals now in course of development inthe north- ern portion of the city.

CHARGED WITH MAKING FALSE STATE- MENTS OF THEIR AFFAIRS. A Previous Collapse of the Same House in 1888, With Liabilities Reaching $2,- 500,000—The Failure of Millionaire Turner of Michigan—A Little Rock Concern Goes Down. New Ton., May 18.—Levy Bros. & Co., wholesale clothing: manufacture at No. 610, 612 and 614 Broadway, were closed up by the Sheriff yesterday, who acted under writs of attachment aggregating $150,747.24, and Augustus H. Levy, one ofthe partners in the firm, is pronounced hopelessly insane by physicians who examined him yesterday, his mind having been unbalanced by the catas- trophe which has fallen on his house. The firm is composed of Julius Levy, a man ot about 65 yegrs, who resides with his family at 207 West One Hundred and . Twenty-second street; August H. Levy, 6 years old, of 160 West Seventy-sixth street, and Moses 8. Levy, a resident of Brooklyn. The two last named are brothers and Julius Levy is their uncle. Early yesterday morning Deputy Sheriff Heinberger took possession of the .es- tablishment under two writs of attachment which had been granted the evening before, one by Judge Andrews in favor of the Park National Bank for $90,615.24 and one by Judge Lawrence in favor of Joseph Lilienthal for $19,709.56. Within a very few hours news of the attachments had got around among the firm’s creditors and the first writs were speedily followed by six others, as follows: For Nathan Erlanger, $1,475.07; for William Lauterbach, $38,542.08; for Nathan May, $25,000; for the Pacific Bank, $1,664.29; for Julius Bal- lin of Ballin, Jourph & Oo., $2,241.30, and for John 8. Downing, $1,640.88. The affidavits upon which the writs were granted declare that the firm had within two years past made unlawful conversion of its funds and payments to the amount of over $100,000 to Samuel Levy of Frankfort, Ger- many, now, but formerly of this city, a brother of Augustus H. and Mrs. 8., and that such payments were made with the intent to defraud the firm and to deprive them of the payment of their just dues. The affidavits also set forth that the firm, in a statement made to the National Park Bank in December last, showed and claimed a surplus of over $300,000, and that an investigation of the con- dition of the firm, made within the last three days, showed an excess of liabilities over ap- parent assets of over $350,000, making an ap- parent deficit within less than six months of over $650,000. Mr. Otto Horwitz of Horwitz & Horshfield, attorneys for the Park National Bank, said last night: The firm is the same which, under the name of Levy Bros. & Co., failed in 1883 for $2,225,000, only Samuel Levy was at that time a partner, and Moses 8. Levy was a salesman in the employ of the firm, not inter- ested as a partner. The failure in 1888 was precipitated by the failure of F. Mayer & Co., with whom they were intimately connected. Mayer 4 Co.’s failure was exceedingly disas- trous. Their liabilities were over $2,500,000. The firm say now that their trouble is partly due to the fact that they were overloaded with $600,000 of liabilities of the old firm which they assumed when they resumed business in 1883; but they took the assets ot the old firm and for years have represented that all that old indebtedness has been paid off and that out of the large business they had since they had cleared up over $350,000 sur- plus which was invested in the business. It was onthe strength of this statement that my client, the National Park Bank, discounted their paper to the amount of nearly $100,000. Of course, the bank had collaterals, which were represented to be customers’ bills, but upon investigation I find they consist largely ofaccommodation paper and to be largely worthless. The failure will be a disastrous one, I am afraid; the liabilities will be at least $750,000 and may reach a million or more, but I be- lieve the assets will realise even half a min- ion. The fact they are in the hands ot the Sherif! under attachment proceedings will not conduce to an amicable settlement of the firm’s troubles. In fact, I look fora general scramble of the rest of the creditors to get in first with their writs of attachment.’’ Five additional attachments, aggregating about $30,000, were fled against the firm of Levy Bros. & Co. this morning. It was anticipated that the firm would flea general assignment for the benefit of creditors this morning, but no tuen document found its way to the County Clerk’s office. The reason alleged was the fact that the senior member was mentally incapacitated by reason of in- sanity which followed the discovery of his misfortune. ‘TURNER'S LIABILITIES $500,000.

Turner has not yet made public a statement of his Uabllities and assets, but it is said by those in position to know that the former wili reach fully $500,000 with assets still greater, in addition to trust deeds covering every dol- lar’s worth of his personal property and real estate.

THE public debt of the United States has been reduced one-half within the last ten tion of it. The statute under which NOLAND was indicted provided that a State Treasurer shall be punished as for stealing if he shall **‘eonvert. to his own use in any manner Whatever, or shall use by ‘way of invest- ment in any kind of property or merchan- ing to show in what manner NOLAND con- verted some of the money he took to his own use; whether he gambled it away, in- | vested it in property or merchandise, or lent it to somebody with or without inter- est. The careful exclusion or avoidance of Cent all the easily attainable evidence on that point by the prosecution could not fail to impress jurymen ‘Inclined to ‘hold faith in the honesty of NoLAnp’s intentions. An attempt has been made to divert at- tention from this remarkable failure of the prosecution by newspaper assertions that the six jurymen who voted to acquit have the excuse that they were instructed by the Judge to acquit, unless the prosecu- tion convinced them that NOLAND took the money with the intention of stealing it. Buteven Gov. Francis in a newspa- per interview rebukes this trumped- up ex- cuse for the failure of the prosecution, by saying that the Judge’s rulings were ‘‘eminently fair, and by citing the posi- tive instruction in which the jury were told that they must find the defendant guilty U they believed he had taken the money, even though they believed he in- tended at the time to return it. Under that instruction six jurymen voted to convict, and it was only by garbling the instructions, as some newspapers are doing, and putting an unwarrunted construction upon some particular sentence separated from the context, that the six jurymen who voted to acquit can contend that they were authorized by the instructions to base such a vote on the failure of the prosecu- tion to show that N@LAND had retained or invested a single dollar of the money. They were told that to convict they must believe the defendant’s intention was crim- inal, but that such intent was to be in- ferred from ‘the criminal taking of the money. The prosecution relied wholly upon this legal inference, did not attempt to fortify it by showing that NoLAND re- tained or spent for his own use a single dollar, and six jurymen took advantage of this failure to vote an expression of their confidence in NOLAND’s intentions, in utter disregard of the positive instruction should be convinced that he took the money as charged, notwithstanding any belief on their part that he intended to re- turn it. in the same queer way. ernor’s private secretary, rushes to the defense of his former friend and benefactor with a statement that Fraxcts knew of NOLAND's gambling and was not indebted the Treasurer.

THREATS TO RELIEVE ARNSTEIN OF THE RAILROAD CHAIRMANSHIP. ——— The Combine Still Solid for Holman and Lindsay—Talk of a Compromise Be tween the Mayor and Objecting Ooun- cilmen—His Honor Still Giving His Office a Wide Berth—Slate News. The unanimity that manifested itself in the Council last evening on certain of the Mayor nominations, gave rise to several reports which are freely circulated to-day. One of these grew out of the unanimous con- frmation of John Gilbert, the Mayor’s choice for bupply Commissioner. There were a number of objections tothe approval of his nomination, and on saturday last his supporters admitted that ne had but six votes, and seemed satisiied that he could not get another. Contrary to general expectation he recetved the votes of the seven Democrats and six Republicans. The report was to the effect that he had sold his interest in a newspaper with Which he had been connected Col. William Hyde, late of the de Pola, with the understanding the pa per in question was to be made a Demo- cratic organ. The story was in many places and denied in others. ‘ man Anderson, speaking of this subject this morning, sad: it there was any deal of this kind , confirmation of it. [know nothing abost the report that Col. Hyde has obtained a controlling interest in the paper you speak of, but he might Go it without my knowing of it.” One of the proprietors of the paper when asked concerning the reported deal, said he had heard the story in several places. He denied that there was any deal and added that he knew nothing of Col. Hyde acquiring any interest in the paper. TALK OF A COMPROMISE. Another story Was told that a compromise hed been effected between the Mayor and the Counell which Would result in the re- appointment of Water Commissioner retained, and on this line they propose to do battle if necessary. Leadine Noonanites Geniedad this report and members of the com- bine did the same. One of the Counctimen said: there has deen no agreement that I know of, but we are confident that the Mayor wlll yet betome convinced that the public in- terests Gemand the retention of these two officials, and send thelr names to the Coun- cu. It was given out this morning that Connell man Arnstein hie firm of the retention of lictman was not as solid as his seven colleagues in the combination on the Fire Department nomination. The friends of Hester have worked assiduously to get him away from the combination and this morning they boasted that they had suc- ceeded and would keep up the fight until they had another, Ih conection with the Hester nomination an interesting story was told at the City Hau to-day. Mr. Arn- stein is the Chairman of the Ratiroad Com- mittee, one of the most importaat Chairman- ships in the Council. On the same com- mittee are Wehner, Cullinane, Hovian and Meter. Of the five members Cullinane, Hoolan and Meier are for anything the Mayor asks, and they are thoroughly in accord with the plan to turn the Fire Depart- ment over to Hester and the Noonan Democracy. Arnstein, R it claimed has been given to understan that it he remotns with the combination that is making the fight for Chief Lindsay, he will be relieved of the Chairmanship of the Rau- road Committee. Noonanites think that this threat um eerve to get Mr. Arnstein’s support for the Hester nomination. This will not benefit Hester unless another vote is secured from the combination. and at present 't does not seem probable that it will be ob- tained On the contrary it is claimed that if Arnstein votes for liester, there will be still eight aghinst him, forthe reason that Councilman James is un- Cerstood to be eppesed to the contemplated change in the department.

The bulk of the business done was disposing of the various slate ap- pointments. The bonds of Wm. C. Marstall, Wm. F. Macklin, John ©. Lohrum, Jas. J. Butier, John T. MeEnnis, Louis Huber and W. L.

McGrath for Commission- er of Public Bulidings, John Burke for In- spector of Boilers and Elevators, Walter Ashton and Herman Stiefel members of the Board of Engineers. Mr. Horton made a minority report against McGrath for Bullding Commissioner. THis appoimiment was laid over until next meet- ing. The rest wasconfirmed by unanimous vote except Messrs. Burke and Ashton against whom Mr. Wehner voted. Dr. J. E. Sullivan was confirmed as Min- spector, Charlies Higgins was confirmed as superintendent of Fire Alarm and Police Tele graph, Joseph Gallagher’s name was re- ferred back to the Sanitary Committee. The vote whereby Wm. McNamee was rejected at last meeting was reconsidered, and he was confirmed by unanimous vote. No new names were sent in by the Mayor in piace of those rejected by the Council.

Slee ee To convicr an embezzling treasurer and at the same time to protect those who made a catspaw of him and got all the money, or those who incited and aided or permitted the crime, is a very “en undertaking.

This fact is at the same time a strong argument against burdening this country with enor- heavy armaments, to which much dise, any money that may eve Come Dj | him by virtue of his position. Considering the precise language of this statute, jurymen would naturally expect the prosecution to introduce evidence go- ing to show in what manner NOLAND con- verted some of the money he took to his own use; whether he gambled it away, in- vested it in property or merchandise, or dent it to somebody with or without inter- est. The careful exclusion or avoidance of | all the easily attainable evidence on that point by the prosecution could not fail to ‘impress jurymen ‘nclined to ‘hold faith in the honesty of NoLanp’s intentions. An attempt has been made to divert at- tention from this remarkable failure of | the prosecution by newspaper assertions that the six jurymen who voted to acquit ha ve the excuse that they were instructed by the Judge to acquit, unless the prosecu- tion convinced them that NoLAND took the money with the intention of stealing it. But even Gov. FRaNncis in a newspa- per interview rebukes this trumped-up ex- cuse for the failure of the prosecution, by saying that the Judge’s rulings were ‘‘eminently fair,“ and by citing the posi- tive instruction in which the jury were told that they must find the defendant guilty H they believed he had taken the money, even though they believed he in- tended at the time to return ft. Under that instruction six jurymen voted to convict, and it was only by garbling the instructions, as some newspapers are doing, and putting an ynwarranted construction upon some particular sentence separated from the context, that the six jurymen who voted to acquit can contend that they were authorized by the instructions to base such a vote on the failure of the prosecu- tion to show that N@LAND had retained or invested a single dollar of the money. They were told that to convict they must believe the defendant’s intention was crim- inal, but that such intent was to be in- ferred from ‘the criminal teking of the money. The prosecution relied wholly upon this legal inference, did not attempt to fortify it by showing that NoLanpD re- tained or spent for his own use a single dollar, and six jurymen took advantage of this failure to vote an expression of their confidence in NoLAND’s intentions, in utter disregard of the positive instruction that they were to find him guilty if they should be convinced that he took the money as charged, notwithstanding any belief on their part that he intended to re- turn it. A similar result may be expected in any future trial conducted by the prosecution | in the same queer way. EXPLAINING THE GOVERNOR'S ACTION. Mr. M. A. Fama, who was the Gov-— ernor’s private secretary, rushes to the defense of his former friend and benefactor with a statement that Francis knew of Nolaxb's gambling and was not indebted | to any Noland for the information on which he began the investigation which ended in the removal and indictment of the Treasurer. According to Mr. Farms the Governor had been anxious for some time about che condition of the Treasury, but felt a deli- cacy about inspecting the Treasury — | counts unless he could be sure of finding a deficit there. During all this period of anxiety, when reports of NOLAND’s be- havior were constantly reaching him, the |} Governor, according to Mr. Fam, carefully refrained from offending NOLAND | by taking a look at his books and was ata loss what to do. So much worried was he that be sat up day and night going over the statutes, till he found one which required the banks to make a monthly report to him.“ This statute had been read and signed by him only a few months before, but he had not only forgotten toenforce it, but had for- gotten there was such a statute, till everybody around him was talking about NOLAND’s spreeing and gambling. Then, for the first time, when pretty well as- sured that he ‘‘had the drop’’ on NoLAND, the Governor proceeded to call on the banks for the monthly reports which would have revealed to him every un- authorized draft paid during any preced- ing month. | This picture of a Governor forgetting the sworn duty enjoined upon him by astatute recently approved by himself, is remark- able. The forgetfulmess and indulgence that led Nolan to the precipice and pushed him over are the only explanation we have of the failure to make the banks pay $1,000 to the school fund for each fail- ure to send a report monthly to the Gov- ernor personally, Mr. FANNING’s sug- gestion that NoLanp, and not the banks, withheld the reports and was responsible for their laying themselves liable to such heavy penalties, is far-fetched and fails to connect with the logic of the situation. the men holding it depend in large meas- ure the interests of the railroads and the e | safety and comfort of the traveling public. 9 rot 14 * * ' Club of New York on the subject of ‘ate and efficiency for others known to be unfit, | Tun successful discharge of the duties of | the ablest railway execytive officials wer e promoted from the road.

Bla- vatsky. Untllayear ago Mr. Russell was a member of the '‘ianer circle“ of theosophy which held its meetings at Mme. Blavatsky’s house in Londen, and for nearly four years was 4 constant visitor ani | something of a protege of the strange Russian noblewoman who was called alike the greatest humbuag’’ or the greatest mental force ot her day. Living during that time in London as a lecttrer on art and the study of harmony in life, Mr. reminiscences ofits leader and her ‘‘house- Dod“ are peculiarly interesting at the pres- ent moment. HOW HE MET BLAVATSKY. ‘*I met Mime. Blavatsky,’’ said Mr. Rus- Sell toa Post-Dispatecn reporter this morn- ing, through the kindness of the German Court painter Herman Schnittgen, who pre- sented me. @as four years ago, and I bad just gone to London from New York. Mine. BlavatSky was then living at her Bays- figure, your eye rested only mn the majestic sweep ofthe drapery in which it was enveloped. In manner, that is in dis- cussion, she was the most aggressive person Ihave ever known. she bore down on her opponents ih argument like a mental avalanche and was unsparing in her use of the bitterest sarcasm and most merciless rid- icule..QOne ot her favorite expressions in charactertzing statements that she con- sidered too h for serious answer was the single, unconventional word ‘‘flapdoodle,’’ and I have seen her turn away from a dig- nitary of the church and dismiss his heavy arguments with that expressive, but u- miliating phrase. ; : “ AN UNCONVENTIONAL HOSPITALITY. I spoke just now of the hospitality of Mme. Blavatsky's household. I woul’ like to illustrate it. The household proper was not above six in number. At her table there were always plates for twenty, and any one who came was expected to join them at their meals without ceremony. Of course they were strict that fact there were always méats of some sort, such as chicken or other delicate animal food, prepared for meat-eating friends. . As a rule, however, the courses of vege- table food were s0 varied and so exquisitely prepared that one would care only for them and be willing to forego mears. There was no ceremony at table and there were no serv- ants. Everyone was to wait upon himself and not evento disturb the oth- ers. If you saw anythingat another place on the table which you wished u tery quietly arose and got it for yourself. If you wished to leave the society of the pérson at whose side you might be, you were at perfect liberty to change your seat and join those whom you preferred. A THROSOPHIC FRAUD. Let me give you a little inside his of the origin of the American attack upon Mme. Blavatsky ahd the hewspaper stories of her trickery and humbuggery. This occurred under my oon observation, and was con- armed by conversations I have had with the Madame. The American gentleman who has deen foremost in assailing Mme. Blavatsky went into theosophy upon the basis that it was a gigantic scheme oftrickery. He wrote to Mme. Blavatsky from New York, suggésting that he be made the leader — ais MADAME BLAVATSKY. water house, and it was before Annie Besant had one of her household. She after- ward moved to K. John’s Wood, into the house Where she was living at the time of her death, at which also I was quite a frequent visitor. Her household then cofisisted of her Gaughter and her sister, Mme. Vera Pe- trovna Jelihougki, the Countess Wach. meister, a wealthy and beautiful Swedish noblewomah whose husband at one time was the Swedish Minister to St. James, and one or two other intimates. The house was, however, acenter of attraction and of thought, and one would meet there at times almost every ‘notable’ of the London world, religious, political or artistic. Felix Mosc belles, RobertBrowning, Whistler and Alma Tadema were among those of my own especial friends Whom have seen at Mme. Blavatsky’s, and of course there were dis- tinguished visitors from other countries almost without number. I learned in time to regard ft as the most hospitable house I ever entered, But my first expectations, as you might say, ot Mme, Blavatsky were ‘cx by the almost world-wide misconception of Madame’s personality. I expected to find a mystic, awomanof somber bearing and of strong magnetic force that casta shadow over those with whom she came in contact. You know this idea of Mme. Blavatsky arose from her violent temper. She was literally a child of nature, and her one weakness was a temper that sometimes burst Into a storm that Swept everything before it. Mime.

Then he frankly asked her to make him a confederate in the alleged scheme of humbug, and to fur- nish him with what he considered the ‘tricks of the trade.’ What he especially wanted her to do was to perform with him some of the ‘humbugging’ of the psyhic plane, such as establishing actual communication be- tween them from London to New Tork with which to astonish and awe the credulous. When Mme, Blavatsky indignantly repulsed suchan advance, he threatened to attack her system, and this he subsequently did in every way possible. Mme. Blavatsky was indifferent to the attack, but she laughingly said to me one day that ‘Mr. —— could never forgive her for beingan honest Theosophist and nota charlatan. Mme. Blavatsky would often talk with me of her girlhood days, but there was one period of her life of which she would give a consecutive account to no one. That was the years of her wanderings after her strange separation from Blavatsky, which occurred either upon her marriage night or just three days later. TRICKS ON THE PSYCHIC PLANE. „It is known that she traveled through India, through South America, studied vou- doism in New Orleans, and led in fact a most retharkablie life, living sometimes as a man and again as a woman just as fancy or con- venience dictated. It is even said that for three years she was a soldier under Garti baldi, and that she was wounded by a bayo- net thrust in the breast, but of this story I have no confirmation. It is positively khown, however, that she studied occultism in India and became an adept. Of this fact there came under my oon observation one con- firming proof. Tas preséfit at her home in Sst. John’s Wood when Col. Olcott of India called on her.

Officers Biggers and Johns of the Central District found John Walsh asleep in a shed at alate hour last night, and furnished him with quarters inthe Four Courts holdover. This morhing the defendant was in the First District Police Court ona charge of vagrancy. In his statement to Judge Cady Walsh de- nied that he was a vagrant, but said that he was conscientiously opposed to working any more than was necessary to provide himself with food, shelter and raiment. Followingthe trend of this sentiment he worked and idied as the state of his finances would permit. Rut what were you doing in that shed?“ asked Judge Cady. „Woll, your Honor,’’ said Walsh, ‘‘I have done about two weeks’ service almost two months ago in a graders’ camp, and had lived very comfortably since on what I at that time earned. Yesterday the last of the money Was gone, and I hadn’ta cent to pay fora bed. I would certainly have gone to work to-day.’”’ Judge Cady announced that he believed the story most implicitly, but suggested that work was not easy to get at this present time and in order that such a systematic man should not want for employment, he would. find hima job. He then fined Walsh $25 and costs and erdered him committed to the Work-house for three months in default of payment. Charged With Stealing Lumber.

Waben. The Combine Still Solid for Holman and Lindsay—Talk of a Compromise Be tween the Mayor and Objecting Ooun- cilmen—His Honor Still Giving His Office a Wide Berth—Slate News. The unanimity that manifested itself in the Council last evening on certain of the Mayor's nominations, gave rise to several reports which are fréely circulated to-Gay. One of these grew out of the unanimous con- frmation of John Gilbert, the Mayor’s choice Commissioner. There were a number of objections tothe approval of his nomination, and on admitted Saturday last his supporters he had but six votes, and seemed satisiied general ex the seven ° The report was to the effect that he had solid his interest in a newspaper with Which he had been connected to Col. William Hyde, late of the defunct . Polla, with the whderstanding that the paper in question was to be made a Demo- cratic organ. The story was credited in many places and denied in others. Councll- man Anderson, speaking Of this subject this morning, sad: It there was any deal of this kind involved im. Gilbert's confirmation I khow nothing of it. I Know nothing about the report that Col. Hyde has obtained a controlling interest in the paper you speak of, but he Might Go it without my knowing n. One of the proprietors of the paper when asked concerning the reported deal, said he nad heard the story in several places. He denied that there was any deal and added that he knew nothing of OOl, Hyde acquiring any interest im the paper. TALK OF A COMPROMISE. Another story Was told that a compromise had been effected between the Mayor and the Council) which would result in the re- appointment of Water Commissioner Holman and Fire Chief Lindsay. These are the officials the solid eight want totes retained, and on this une they propose to do battle if necessary. Leading Noonanites denied this report and members of the com- bine did the same. One of the Counctimen said: There has been no agreement that I know of, but we are confident that the Mayor wlll yet become convinced that the public in- terests demand the retention of these two officials, and send thelr names to the Coun- 8. It was given out this morning that Council- man Arnstein while firm of the retention of Holman was not as solid as his seven colleagues in the combination on the Fire Department nomination. The friends of Hester have worked assiduously to get him away from the combination and this morning they boasted that they had suc- ceeced and would keep up the fight until they had another, Ih confection with the Hester nomination an imteresting story was told at the City Hau to-day. Mr. Arn- stein is the Chairman of the Ratiroad Com- mittee, one of the most importast Chairman- ships in the Council. on the same com- mittee are Wehner, Cullinane, Hoodlan and Meter. of the fve members Cullinane, Hoolan and Meter are for anything the Mayor asks, and they are thoroughly in accord with the plan to turn the Fire Depart- ment over to Hester and the Noonan Democracy.

Noonpanites think that this threat wl eerve to get Mr. Arnstein’s support for the Hester nomination. This will not benefit Hester unless another vote is secured from the combination, and at present t does not seem probabie that it will be ob- claimed that ester, there will be still eight against him, forthe reason that Councilman James is un- Cerstood to be opposed to the contemplated change in the department.

Burke and Ashton against whom Mr. Wehner voted. Dr. J. E. Sullivan was confirmed as Min- spector, Charles Higgins was confirmed as Superintendent of Fire Alarm and Police Tele graph, Joseph Gallagher’s name was re- ferred back to the Sanitary Committee. The vote whereby Wm. McNamee was rejected at last meeting was reconsidered, and he was confirmed by unanimous vote. No new names were sent in by the Mayor in place of those rejected by the Council. Marked for Rejection. The nominations that are markedon the of the Fire Department; E. E. Guion, Jailer; Fred Walsh, Assessor Eighth District, and Chartes Reinhardt and Capt. Guibor for Superintendent of the House of Refuge are still in doubt. The op- position to ex-Senator McGrath comes from Counctiman Horton, but the opinion was expressed to-day that the nomination would be confirmed Friday night. Guiber’s friends are actively at work and hope to pull him through. Have You a Picture to Frame?

LIVELY CONTESTS OVER SOME OF THE OFFICERS ARE ANTICIPATED. The Majority of the Members Believed to Be Opposed to Amalgamation With the Brotherhood—St. Louisans Working to Secure the Headquarters — Morning Sessions of the Convention. The rotunda of the Laclede Hotel was crowded all this morning by the delegates to the twenty-third annual convention of the Order of Railway Conductors, which is in session at Addington Hall, Seventeenth and Olive streets. A large number of rooms of the same hostelry were occupied by commit- tees, who were in session acting on business that will come before the convention this afternoon. Room 24, headquarters of the grand officers, was almost constantly crowded, the dele- gates coming in to have a chat or seeking — formation from either Grand Chief Clark, Grand Secretary Daniels. Badges were dis. tributed among the delegates who had or- dered them. The design is a very pretty one, having the number of the division to which the bearer belongs in large metal letters. These badges were designed especially to be worn at the complimentary ball and banquet to be given at Liederkranz Hall, Thirteenth and Chouteau avenue, to-morrow evening. The arrangements for this affairare on a grand scale. Six hundred plates will be laid. Among the principal topics of discussion around the rotunda was the probable success- ors in office of those whose term expires at ts session of the national convention of the order. There are evidences of some very close contests while some of the old officers will be re-elected without opposition. CONTEST OVER THE SECRETARYSHIP. For nearly ten years W. P. Daniels has been Grand Secretary of the order, and has almost unanimously received a re-election twice, each being a term of three years. But there is a movement to place some one else in the position this year, the general theory being that Mr. Daniels has held the office long enough. A scheme to spring a surprise in re- lation to this office was being quietly con- cocted this morning, and when action is taken either Friday or Saturday several candidates for the position will be announced, But there is a general and apparently well- founded belief among the delegates that Mr. Daniels will be successful, notwithstanding the effort to defeat him. His friends are legion, and this morning they are claiming that some selfish or ambitious men are making an endeavor to secreity undermine his influence by insinuations and charges, fathered apparently by noone, and having no foundation in fact. The secretary was in the rotunda a good portion of the morning hours talking to the delegates to see how the land lies, and from his talks gained much confi- dence that he would be successful in the end. The election being several days off, he thinks that he can clear matters up before that time sufficiently to secure re-election without doubt. Among his most enthusiastic sup- porters is Ed E. Clark, Grand Chief Con- ductor. who did not forget to tell the del- egates that it was for the benefit of the order that Mr. Daniels be re. elected, and this influence will doubtless have much to do with the result. Mr. Dan- fels has many other good friends, all of whom are working most faithfully for his success. From present indications, based upon representative expressions from the delegates, he will be re-elected upon the sec- ond or third ballot. ö OTHER OFFICERS tro BE ELECTED. A. G. Garretson, at present Grand Senior Conductor, will most probably be re-elected. One year ago he was appointed by the Execu- tive Board, composed of the grand officers, to the position, its former occupant, E. E. lark, having been elected to be Grand Chief Conductor. Mr. Garretson has madea satis- factory officer, performing his duties of or- ganizer with most general satisfaction. As yet there is no openly avowed opposition to his candidacy. Grand Senior Conductor J. D. Schultz, Mr. Garretson's assistant, ires re-election Dut considerable oppositio his candidacy has developed, and while there isa strong prob- ability of his success, he will have to work for the position. W. R. Dorsey, Grand Inside Sentinel, de- sires re-election and will probably receive it, but has serveral opposition candidates in the feld. T. B. Decker, the present inside sen- tinal, will not again be a candidate for the position, but it is impossible to secure a con- firmation of this rumor. There is a vacant position on the Executive Committee, the place now occupied by Mar- tin Clancy, who will probably be rechosen. Chas. E. Wiesz, whose term on the Insurance Committee has expired, and he is seeking re- election, The two latter offices do not carry with them a membership of the Board of Control and are therefore not so much soughtafter as the other positions. The Board of Control ts the last resort for an appeal. There is no doubt whatever that the board will remain favorable to the policy which has been car- ried out during the past year. DO NOT LOVE THE BROTHERHOOD. It does not take but a few minutes in con- versation with the delegates to get the in- formation that the proposed amalgamation with the Brotherhood of Rallway Conductors, advocated by Chief Conductor Geo. W. How- ard from the public platform yesterday, is not generally favored. Excuses of various descriptions are given for holding this view, the main one being that the great majority of the members of the Brotherhood are alleged to have at one time been members of the order or have been bDilack-balled when they made applica- tion. That the effort of Chief Howard to bring about a federation was a fine one every one of the delegates admit, and his offer to sacrifice his position to accomplish the pur- pose is generally spoken of as being very magnanimous. While Mr. Howard is receiy- ing compliments on every hand the member- ship of the order of which he is the head is receiving general condemnation, showing in a very conclusive way that an tion.

The Finance Committee of the Autumnal Festivities Association is organizing and will soon have sub-committees calling on mer- chants to receive their subscriptions to the fall festival fund. A meeting of the Finance Committee will de held at the Ex- position to-night in Mr. Frank Gaiennie’s office. Mr. Samuel Kennard, President of the Autumnal Association, was seen to-day after he had made a tour of the field, and ex- pressed himself as most sanguine as to re- sults. The success of Monday night’s meeting is still discussed. Congratulations are pouring in on Mr. Goodman King, Chairman of the Advertisin g Committee, to whose efforts 18 largely due having the public’s attention properly called to the meeting. Mr. Joseph Specht, who is also a member of the Advertising Committee, has entered into the work with his well-known enthusiasm. As he puts it, the Advertising Committee ‘*will paint the country red. Mr. Specht leaves the city on Saturday ona tour ot in- spection to look over the field to see where money can be judicially spent in advertising, or in his own words to get some pointers.’’ There is no knowing, said Mr. Specht, where this thing is going to end. Every person in the city should in- terest themselves. A $1,000,000 hotel in St. Louis means $1,000,000 spent in St. Louis and that much more work for our mechanics. we shall whoop up things. We will go to the Merchants’ Bridge people and tell them they must have their depot done by 1898. The same with the Union Depot. All this rushing will mean more work and more money for the laboring classes. It is just like startinga ball down a hill. Ifit meets with no obstruction there is no knowing where it will stop. A questionis being discussed by the Ex- ecutive Committee ofthe Festivities Assso- ciation of reaching the middle classes and more prosperous portions of mechanics and working classes generally, but no definite plan has been decided . The sub-committees of the Committee will not have to call on these, and it is estimated that a large sum could be realized in small subscrip- tions which would be cheerfully given. The Executive Committee will meet in a day or two and decide on the matter. We Want the Readers of the Post- Dispatch” to Know That we make and sella full assortment of men’s fine clothing.

City Counselor Bell was asked what the city would have to say as to the injunction applied for by the Attorney-General to pre- vent the Schweickharat ordinance leasing the privileges in Forest Park from being exe- cuted. He said that the ordinance was passed in good faith, and had deen accepted by Schweickhardt and the lease pro- vided for had been executed, and Schweikhardt’s bond approved and fied, and the system created by the ordinance and lease was in actual operation, when the State had intervened by the present pro- ceeding. The management and control of the parks was vested by law in the city government, to be exercised by ordinance. This power of man- agement necessarily included such questions as to whether refreshments, music and other methods of entertainment should be provided or permitted in the parks. Public opinion might be and probably was divided on these questions, but the ultimate decision of the same rested with the city government. As to these matters the city was practically independent of the State author- ities. Under the doctrine of local self-gov- ernment embodied in the city charter, the power ofthe city to decide for itself local was com- plete and final. There was no prohibition in the State dramshop Jaw that conflicted with the provisions of the Schweickhardt ordl- nance, and Mr. Bell was sanguine that an impregnable defense would be presented by the city to the proceedings instituted by Attorney-General Wood. Getting Ready for New Officers. Many of the offices about the City Hall are being cleaned out and straightened up for the new occupants who are expected to take formal possession within the next two week. The City Counselor and his assistant had all their private papers bundled up this morning ready to move as soon as Mr. Marshalland Mr. Macklin ap- peared.The move will be postponed until Sat- urday. Inthe Sewer and Park Departments the two commissioners were dusting around destroying all the old rubbish which had ac- cumulated. In the Street and Harbor De- partments all was quiet and unchanged, as the same heads were to remain for the next four years. Capt. McClellan and Commissioner Furlong were packing up their traps, ag were most of their subordinates, as it is expected that a clean sweep will be made in these two offices. In the Supply office the whole force wore a look of resignation suggestive of approach- ing decapitation. In the Street Department the sat isfaction of the employes was ex- pressed in the shape of small cash donations which will be appliedto the purchase of a floral testimonial to be given to Maj. Murphy this afternoon. Whether the other departments will provide floral testimonials of a funereal nature for the de- parting heads has not been stated. A great deal of interest is beingtaken in the fate ofthe various subordinates in the different offices. The probabilities are that whatever changes are made will be made gradually so as not to jar the machinery too severely. Successful Bidders for Street Work.

SLEEPING BESIDE A CORPSE. A Horrible Story of Poverty, Squalor and Death. NRW YORK, May 13.—A horrible case of pov- erty, squalor, degradation and death came to the attention of County Physician Wrightson of Essex County, N. J., on Monday night and was made public yesterday. It was the dis- covery in a foul smelling hut in Mont Clair, of the body of a woman who had evidently been dead several days and her 8-year-old son who for nearly a week had slept beside the corpse. For six or seven days the neighbors of Mrs. Elien Johnson of New and Fulton streets, Mont Clair, had seen nothing of her, but as she was a heavy drinker and given to going on protracted sprees both indoors and out, they busied themselves but little as to her whereabouts. Her only companion was the little boy, who is only 8 yearsold. Although at one time a fine looking woman, years of debauchery had wonderfully changed Mrs. Johnson not only in looks but in manners, and her neigh- bors bad but little to do with her as she was exceedingly noisy. On Monday afternoon the little fellow was out as usual and was begging food from peo- ple in the vicinity. Nothing was thotght of this, however, as he was ragged and dirty and had often asked fora bite to eat before because of his mother’s neglect. While one charitable woman was feeding him he was asked what had become of his mother. she's asleep, was his reply. Further questioning brought out the fact that she had been ‘‘asleep’’ for over a week. Word was sent to several houses that matters were decidedly suspi- clous and after a consultation the neighbors determined to enter the house. They found her lying on the bed apparently asleep, Duta decided stench told the awful tale of death and decomposition. When the body was examined it was found that the woman had been a corpse for some time. Dr. Wrightson made an examination and found that she had been drinking hard and that death had been caused by a convulsion brought on by her intemperate habits. The little hut in which the woman lived was filthy. The strangest and most horribie part of the affair isthe story told to the county physician by the dead woman’s son. He and his mother went to bed on the night of Sun- day, May 8, he says. Before he went to sleep a mouse trap which had been set shut witha snap and his mother got up to see fa mouse bad been caught. She soon returned and began to shake so hard that she shook the whole bed. She then became quiet and he thought she had gone asleep. Every night since then he had slept in the house and un- til Thursday he had occupied his usual place in the bed with iis mother. He did not know that he was ing beside a corpse, in fact he did not know what death was, but since Thursday he has slept on the floor near the bed because of awful smell. He thought nothing of her ping, he said, as she often slept for two or three days after a big drunk. The smell of filthy apartment was of 83 not for four days on he remains. Mrs. Johnson had been a hard drinker a great while and for this reason her husband left her about five years ago. His present whereabouts are unknown.

There was an exciting scene nearthe cor- ner of Seventh and Papin streets yesterday afternoon. A couple of Gog catchers had **wired’’ a little poodle which sat on the sidewalk unconscious of any impending dan- ger. As Michael Angelrodt was dragging the struggling little animal to the wagon its owner, a colored woman named Mrs. Emma Moses, put fm an appearance. Enraged at the bold abduction she drew from her pocket a long-bladed knife, with which she chased the astonished _ dog: catcher all over the street. Angelrodt’s companions, seeing him closely pressed, went to his assistance and the unfortunate. poodle was finally dumped unceremoniously into the wagon to keep company with severalof its snarling kind. Officer Quigley was then called and on the complaint of Angeirodt placed Emma Moses under arrest. At the Four Courts a charge was preferred against her for disturbing the peace. To-day In the First District Police Court the case was continued until the 14th inst. for the defendant. Angelrodt 18 one of the three dog - catchers made defendants in the famous Willie Mater case, in which the prosecution endeavored to establish that the 14-year-old boy had become the victim of hy- drophobia from being caught; about the neck with a wire and thrown in with the captured dogs. The men were convicted of assault to do great bodily harm and sentenced to serve a term of three months in the city jail. Burke was since killed by a Work-house guard, who was in the act of rearresting him for escap- ing from that institution. Guerke, only a few weeks ago was arrested on the charge of attemetine to throw his wire over the head of a workman on Easton and Compton avenues, who had chased away @ dog which the men were trying to catch. The wire cut open the workman’s cheek and the Gog catchers narrowly escaped the wrath of an infuriated mob. Abandoned His Wite, Prosecuting Attorney Dierkes issued a war- rant for wife abandonment this morning against Jacob Fendel. The defendant is at present employed in a store at un Franklin avenue. His 508 her without any just cause and insists that a young woman who recently came over from the old country is the fair charmer to whom her husband has transferred bis affections. Fendel has not as yet been arrested. ats aang — 2 meeting and election of be r many e severe gush over hold its annual ra, May i Powd 8 2 ute "4 DIRECTLY OPP, POST-OFFICE. | SPECIAL INVITATION TO THE RAILROAD CONDUCTORS.

The committee deems it within the spirit of the club’s resolutions to proceed and discuss means for the abatement of the evil. The very presence of undesirable immi- grants in the country, the committee says, is a burden and a menace, but when the mmi - grantsare clothed with citizenship the bur- denandthe menace, are aggravated. The treatment of the subject, it finds, naturally arranges itself into two principal divisions, the first relating to such laws and policy on the part of the Government as shall pre- vent the undesirable immigrants from being admitted to the country and second re- lating to the enactment of laws or the en- forcement of present laws in order to prevent these immigrants from becoming citizens with the attendant benefits implied. New laws, it is declared are needed although there are laws on the statute books which should be enforced as they were intended to be. The committee after further reviewing the situation append the following petition for circulation among all parties throughout the United States: To the Honorable Congress af the United States: Your petitioners. citizens of the United States, native and naturalized, respectfully present: That it is — tyr and generally believed and as we are con- vinced, canbe proved, that for several years past — frauds have been perpetrated upon the suf- rage by the naturalization of persons not entitled to citizenship according to law, upon evidence mani- festly insufficient and false and rupt and wicked use of power their officers in relation to the administration of the existing laws permitting and regulating the natural- ization of aliens. Every good citizen should abhor such acts as monstrous crimes against the safety of a pation and the liberty of a free people. We believe the existing laws upon the subject of naturalization are inadequate to prevent the repeti- tion of such crimes and we suggest the enactment of a genera! law to be made ce u. stringent and et- cient to embody the — — apd other necessa rovistons. e res tfully ask your honorable ody to enact a law or laws: 1. Which shall restrict the power to the Federal Courts of conferring citizenship of the United States. 2 Which shall require a longer residence in the United States by all persons desiring to become citi- rens than is now prescribed by lawandalso provide that all applications be madeio the handwriting of the applicant, who must be able to speak, read and write the Eng ish language. 8. Which shall authorize any citizento appear in open court in order, in — faith, to contest the right of any applicant to a certificate of naturaliza- thon, or to set aside any such certificate improperly grant +. Which shall authorize any court having jurisdic- tion to declare nuiland void any certificate or order of 2 made in fraud or in violation of ex- isting laws. . BISHOP PERRY'S DECLARATION. DAVENPORT, lo., May 18.—The annual con- vention of the Episcopal Church of the Dio- cese of lowa opened here last evening with thirty-seven clergymen and a number of lay delegates in attendance. Bishop Perry de- livered his annual address. Among other things he said: ‘*‘We need and should countenance in this land, no organizations of Englishmen, Scotchmen, Welsh.- men, Irishmen, Scandinavians, Ger- mans, French or Italians. Much less should we consent tothe growth amongst us of sect tribunals with their crimes and as sassinations, or orgafiigations of men of foreign birth and trained to the use of arms. We recognize no flag but the stars and stripes. Our liberties are endangered, even before we are aware, by this banding to- gether of foreigners who seek an asylum in our free land, that they may better pursue their schemes of interference with other nations. These pointed utterances, coming from so higha person in the church, created quite a sensation. THE POLICE WERE THERE. But They Arrested No One, Though They Saw the Cutting. Cut, cut, cut!

Ade SEEN IN THE SADDLE. SOCIETY ST. LOUISANS WHO RIDE BOLDLY AND GRACEFULLY. A List of Boulevard Equestrians and a Study of Their Horsemanship—Bridle Belles and Booted Beaux-—Some Pic- turesque Mounted Groups. is decoming more and more fashionabdie among the ladies and gentlemen of St. Lonis to ride. Where only a few ladies and young men made any pretentions to good horse- manship a few years back, now it is an ex- ception when a young lady or gentleman be- longing to the fashionable world does not ride. Americans are taunted with the fact that they copy their English cousinsin every respect, which certainly is a mistake, but they do well to imitate the English young people in the matter of out-door exercise of all kinds, especially horseback riding. No young lady or young gentleman’s education ig complete in England without this accomplishment. They may ride very ungracefully, but they ride with. courage and fearlessness which is essential to the Management of a spirited horse. THE NEW RIDING SKIRT. Whenh women used to wear those terrible and dangerous habits that swept the ground it made them feel afraid and helpless. With their feet entangled in a labyrinth of skirt, they could never banish the idea from their minds of their utter helplessness if an accident should occur. Through some subtie instinct which the human mind does not un- derstand this fear on the part of the rider is always communicated to the intelligent horse and he, like all stronger creatures, takes ad- vantage of his timid victim and generally does all he can to increase that fear. Now, however, fashion and good sense have brought the riding dress of a woman to the point of convenience and freedom of movement for the wearer. Indeed the fair sex can in- dulge ina habit and style of riding, if they choose, which goes a little beyond good taste, but gives them that perfect freedom and se- curity in sitting a horse which is enjoyed by the opposite sex. No young lady in St. Louis has reached that point of independence of public opinion as to sit her horse in any style peculiar to If horseback exercise continues to increase m popularity in the same ratio, and the number of equestrians steadily grows larger, St. Louis may some day set up a Rotten fellow riders and a host of admiring A SPIRITED PICTURE. 140 i less this spirit of timidity can „Riders are born, not man who was learned | | 1281 f ALL i i pet i Whittaker of Franklin avenue. Miss Whitta- ker has been much noticed and admired for her graceful riding and ig cansidered one of the most fearless young horsewomen in St. Louis. If she remains in London long enough during her trip to this spring hone of her countrywomen n blush to see her in the row with all the English ladies on the island. Miss Clara Hopkins is fond of horse- back exercise and rides well. Miss Georgie King, who is quite a young girl,owns one of the finest saddle in town, known by the name oft Chief. She sits on him proudly without fear of is seen taking a canter Through the less fre- quented thoroughfares, sometimes with a party of young friends, again witha governor or riding master. Miss Alby Piant is another graceful girl rider, whose figure looks almost a of her steed, 80 per- fectly at ease is she upon her horse. Mrs. Albert Kelly was a beautiful rider and doubtless every one will remem- ber the exquisite picture she made upon a handsome horse with her animated face and lovely coloring. Mrs. Kelly’s sister. Mrs. Carr, formerly Mimi Morrison, is also a graceful horsewoman. ' SOME EQUESTRIAN GROUPS. Mrs. Theodore Hunt, Miss Marie Hunt and Mrs. Theodore Benoist form a group of graceful lady equestrians. Mrs. Sherwood and the Misses Katheryne and Madalyn Kerens are said to ride easily and gracefully, and are fond of horseback exercise. Miss Marie Newman is also a good rider and Miss Robinson of 3407 Washington avenue, who learned to ride in the East, is another graceful and fearless rider and is frequently seen upon a handsome steed. The Misses Stix of Washington avenue ride well. A group of yous girls who are noted for t fearless and good riding are the Misses Jones of 8146 Locust street, Miss Ida Dargin of the South End and Miss Matthews of Grand avenue. The two pretty young daughters of Mr. George Maverick, Misses Kenna and Lolla Maverick, are graceful riders. These young es have spent much time in their South- home in San Antonio, Tex., and itis no rare for a woman to ride well in the Lone State. A few years ago the writer saw. a Teras young lady, who belonged to a family of wealth and who had been most delicately brought up and educated in the East, mount a wild little mustang pony. He tried to throw her in every way that a vicious horse could conceive and execute. She clung to him, conquered him and joined a riding party who rode fifteen miles that day. Noone inthe party seemed to wonder at her magnificent riding or nerve. Mrs. Hoyt of West Pine street and Mrs. W. H. Little of Westminster place are graceful riders, and frequently indulge in the exer- cise. BELLES OF THE SADDLE. Miss Gordon of Twenty-third and Lucas place rides well.

OBJECTIONS TO THE MERCHANTS’ EX- CHANGE DIRECTORS’ PROPOSAL. Reasons Advanced by Those Opposed to the Proposed Change in the Control ofthe Reserve Fund—Advocates of the Pianters’ House Site. 7 Tus auestt {Trea tfior in the” of the Merchants’ Exchange, by which the disposition of the reserve fund, as far as re- gards real estate purchases,is to be delegated to a committee elected by a majority vote, 18 asubject of warm discussion on Change. The vote will be taken on May 23, and the friends of the measure are confident and well organized. Those opposed to it are not so well organized, but claim that they will be able to defeat its passage. GROUNDS OF OPPOSITION. In reference to this matter, a call was made upon Moses Fraley, one of the leaders of the opposition, and an ex- member of the Real Es- tate Committee. In reply toa question, Mr. Fraley said: ‘‘ITam not in favor ofthe method, for the following reasons: Ido not Delleve in em- powering any committee without limit to price or locality; when the directors nad the authority to appoint committees to select different sites and to submit, together with price, direct tothe members for their con- sideration, it certainly would result more sat- isfactory to submit a proposition including price and locality for the members to vote on than for a committee to purchasea site and displease the members, and no remedy there- after. It has been construed by many that by voting for members of the committee a great many may be misled to vote for prominent names that may be submitted that have al- ready voted twice to purchase the Planters’ House and that would be against the wish of agreat many, that is to say when names are presented a great many of the inactive members that only come on the floor at the annual election or when some important mat- ters are presented, whoare unfamiliar with the details and are caught by the most prominent and popular names, which would almost be paramount to be voting for the Planters’ House. THE PLANTERS’ HOUSE SITE. I am not opposed to the investment of the fundsina building forthe Merchants’ Ex- change, but, on the contrary, am strongly in favor of same, but it must be an open-handed proposition of locality and price so that I can vote on same intelligently. Iamunwilling to delegate such authority in such an important matter, both in dollars and cents and local- ity, to any committee that may be elected by the method proposed. While I would be willing, under ordinary circumstances, to intrust the funds and the building ofa. new exchange to parties names may be submitted, yet I would them no mat- ter how honorable and responsible they may be, for the reasonthat they have repeatedly voted first to pay $350,000 for the Planters’,. and then subsequently $300,000. If such a committee should prevail let it consist of men who have no | any locality or have given any expression for any site and above all it should not consist of any member who has served on the Real Estate Committee or who has co-operated with Real Estate Committee, but should interests ig 151 15 b zi gE f is 0 0 a 2 Ht i gh it blindly into the complications this neos rule may lead us to. A great alarm has been sounded as to the present investment ot our funds. They say the Government bonds are depreciating. What has or could have hindered the direct- ors from investing in realestate mortgages at 6 per cent and then by paying taxes on same would have lefta 4 percent safe and net investment? I hope this will not be construed as an ar- rayed opposition to the consummation of building a new Merchants’ Exchange. On he.contrary, I believe the voting down of he sublertige rule as now proposed will De the cause of giving usa home sooner, whilst voting for such an uncertain and unlimited proposition will not only impede the progress but will utterly defeat it. It is a dangerous precedent to establish a rule absolutely authorizinga commit- tee of sixteen men, of which twelve decide to be advertised as the sole authority and equal to being mandatory for them to purchase a site.

Libel Suit of an Army Surgeon Against His Superior Officer. CHEYENNE, Wyo., May 13.—War has been raging within the Seventeenth United States Infantry some time, though the regiment is ona peace footing. The first apprisal the public has had of the dificulty was when the Surgeon ofthe regiment came to Oheyenne from the regimental post at Fort Russell and engaged Attorney Stoll to bring a libel suit for $25,000 against Col. H. R. Mizner, his com- manding officer. Surgeon Appel’s complaint is that while he was absent on the Sioux campaign last win- ter Col. Mizner issued an order directing him to turn over all his medical stores to Assist- ant Surgeon Kendall. Acting on the advice of his superior medical officer Appel retused toobey. Col. Mizner preferred charges of insubordination, in which he said Appel was utterly worthless as a surgeon, inattentive to social and professional duties and offensive to officers of the regiment. The charges were dismissed by the War Department, but Appel says he has been injured professionally to the amount of the damages asked and will push his civil suit vigorously. ; FED THROUGH A TUBE.

Sherwood’s Views on Fashionable Life—Daglight Party or Afternoon Re- ception—Methods of Serving Eefresh- ments—Duties of the Chaperone. The season in London extends from May to August, often longer if Parliament is in ses- sion. In Paris itis from May to the grand prix,’’ when it is supposed to end about the Inn ot June. But in New Tork and Wash- ington itis all winter, from Nov. 1 to Lent with good Episcopalians, and from November to May tothe rest of mankind. It then be- gins again in July with the people who go to XSewport and Bar Harbor, and keeps up until September, when come itn Tuxedo and the gayety of Long Island and the Hudson. in deed, with the gayety of country house life, hunting and lavn tennis and driving, it is hard to say when the American season ends. There is one sort of entertainment which is a favorite everywhere and very convenient; itis the afternoon reception or party by day- light. The gas is lighted, the day excluded, the hostess and guests are in beautiful toll ette, their friends come in street dresses and bonnets, their male friends in frock coats. This is one of the anomaties of fashion. These entertainments are very large, and a splendid collation is served, The form of invitation is simply : Mrs. Brownton at home Thursday, from 3 to 6, and unless an R. 8. V. F. is appended, no reply is expected. These receptions are favorites with housekeepers, as they save the servants from staying up at night. The drawback to the reception is that in our busy world of America very few gentiemen can spare the time to call in the daytime, so the attendance is largely Yem- inine. On entering, the guest places a card on the table, or she cannot be present at the re- ception she should send a card in an en- velope. After these entertainments, which are parties, a lady should call. It is a differ- ent thing entirely from afternoon tea, after which no call is expected. If the reception is given to some distinguished person, the lady stands beside her guest to present all the company to him, or her. MUSICALES. It on the card the word music is added, then the guests should be punctual, as doubt- less they areto be seated, and that takes time. No lady who givesa musicale should invite more than she can seat comfortably, and she should have her rooms cool and her lights soft and shaded. People with weak eyes suffer dread from a giare of gas, and when music is going on they cannet move to relieve themselves. The bostess id think of all- this. Wito can endure the led misery Of a hot room, an uncomf bie seat, a glare of gas and a pianoforte solo? A very sensible reformation is now in prog ress in regard to the sending of invitations and the answering of the same. The post is now freely used as a safe and convenient me- dium, and no one feels offended if an invita- tion arrives witha cent stamp on the en velope. There is no loss of caste’’ in sending an invitation by post. Then comes the ball, or, as they always say in Europe, the dance, which is the gayest of all things for the.debutante. The popular form for an invitation to an evening party is Dancing. The card ofthe debutante (if the ball is given for one) ts inclosed. If these invitations are sent to a new ac- quaintance, or to in town, the card ofthe gentieman is to gentieman, that of both husband and wife to other ladies neglected girls.

If Harry Ray hed remained in the race and gone to the postin good cond). tion he would have been decidedly danger- ous. He has been alling all epring, how- ever, andis probably still sick, With him removed fromthe contest Georgetown and Ralgowan OOK like the only two horses en- tered capable of making the favor- Ite run. Valera was * Pretty fair ?- year-old, bat has dane nothing this year to warrant a belief that he will land the prise. There has been for a jong time a strong tip on Hart Wallace, Dut he te hardly good enough to win, and High Tarif and Poet Scout are cutclassea. Al- though Balgowan is the second choice in the betting his running this spring indicates that he Cannot win. He can go the distance, bos ever, and thatis a good point tn big favor. Georgetown is reported to bein tie pink of condition and as he isa good colt he is the one horse im the race who hasachance of lowering the favorite’s colors. Despite the claims that Kingman cannot go the @istance he looks like the dest thing In the race.

And the ame may be sald of Reporter and Reperta, Bet Mr. Wyndham Walden may give everybody a shaking Gp Uy starting the oot Russell. Mr. Walden undoultedly excels as a Spring trainer. His ability in getting horees ready early was the main secret of his success when he handled the horses of the late Mr. George L. Lorillard, and since he has had Mr. John A. Morris’ horses he has even tmproved on his record. Take for Mmestance his record at Washington Ouring the past week. The horses that car ried the ‘‘scariet’’ there are only the moder. ate ones, apd yet though pitted against horses of very good quality they have earned brackets nearly every time they were sent to the post. That Russell was one Of the best 2- year-olds last year goes Without saying, and he would have finished his season with a great deal more eclat had he not been raced sO mech that he Gnally manifested signs of becoming arogue. Thus, if Russell should start, be must be Yoteda very dangerous candidate. OUTTERETRS RACES.
