THE TROUBLE OVER A SITE TO BE BROUGHT OUTIN COURT. Judge Klein Requires That the Petition Be Amended so as to Include Mr. Branch and St. George's Church Society as Parties to the Suit Before Issuing the Restraining Order. Judge Klein rendered his decision in the St. George’s Church injunction proceeding this morning, in which Dr. Holland, pastor of St. George’s, and the wardens and vestrymen of the church are seeking to restrain the Sherif from selling the 263 shares in St. George's Society, held by Mr. Branch, under a judgment in favor of J. P. Boogher-and William C. Marshall, by granting a temporary injunction. It was 10:30 o’clock before Judge Kleln appeared on the bench, and the court-room spectators became very anxious, knowing that the court was working on the case, . When the Judge had taken his seat and the Sheriff had formally opened court, Judge Kiein opened a written opinion which he held in his hand, but the reading of it was a dis- appointment. It was an opinion in the case of August Bollman against ex-Gity Marshal Neiser, wherein Bollman sues for damages for being assaulted by Neiser’s deputies. The court-room loungers were not interested in scrapping-matches just then and listened with impatience’ to the court while he an- nounced that he would grant anew trial in the case. Several other decisions were an- nounced, and then taking up the injunction petition in the St. George's Church matter the court said: JUDGE KLEIN’S OPINION. ‘In the case of the rector, wardens and vestrymen of St. George’s Church against Patrick M. Staed, Sheriff, and others, where anapplication has been made tothe court fora temporary injunction, I do not con- sider that a temporary injunction ought to be granted in this case upon the bill as it stands. I think the bill discloses that a necessary party tothe suit is Mr. Joseph W. Branch. Neither do I think that the plaintiffs here can proceed in this case unless they bring him into court for the purpose of determining all the equities of the case according to the allega- ‘Branch and Dr. tions of the bill. If that should be sustained upon the idea that this stock so-called is to be regarded as property, before the plaintiff? has any actual standing in court at all the plaintiff? must ask some relief against Mr. Branch to compel him to make this transfer of the stock. And I think also that the Society of St. George's Church is a necessary party to the suit. The bill, if it is so amended, would present. a case which, I think, would entitle the plaintiffs to equitable relief upon the idea that the plaintiffs here have no legal title to the stock to which they claim the equitable title, and ifthis stock represents property, as is evi- dently the contention of the defendants, then comes the question which cannot be determined in this preliminary hearing whether the contract which is set forth in this billas having been made between Mr. Holland is a contract that can be enforced in equity or not. If the contract can be enforced in equity, then the case would stand like a com- plainant coming into court having equitable title to real estate and seeking to protect that equitable title thus sought to be interfered with by other parties. But in oder to grant any relief at all [ think it is proper and necessary thatall the parties who are interested ac- cording to the face of the bill should be before the court, and if you will ‘amend your bill (addressing Attorney Cunningham, who was in court) so as to make Joseph W. Branch and the St. George’s Church ‘Society parties defena- ant in this case and ask relief against thes as well as against the particular defendants whom you seek to enjoin, Iwill grant a tem- porary injunction upon the giving of a bond in the sum of 99,000.“ CERTIFICATE FOUND. Mr. Cunningham here stated to the court that since the bringing of the injunction pro- ceedings the missing certificate of the Branch stock has been found and is now in the possession of Dr. Holland, indorsed by Mr. Branch. The reason, he stated, that the officers of St. George's Church So- ciety had not taken any action in the matter, was because of the levy. The question arose on the title at the time ofthe levy. So tar as Mr. Branch has power the plaintiffs have his full authority. Judge Klein reiterated his opinion that Mr. Branch was a party to the suit, and stated if any relief was to be obtatned by the plaintiffs it would be by compelling all the parties to the affair to come into court. Mr. Cunningham then stated he would comply with the wishes of the court. lou may amend your bil,“ said Judge Klein, making Mr. Branch and St. George's Church Society parties to the suit, and add a prayer for general relief. SEEKING BOND. Attorney Cunningham amended his peti- tion in the court room by adding the names of Joseph W. Branch and the title of St. George’s Church Society to the injunction petition as co-defendants with Sheriff Patrick M. Staed, Davis R. Boogher, J. P. Boogher and Wm. C. Marshall, and filed the paper with the Clerk of the court. The attorney then called the Court’s attention to the amount of the bond, $9,000, which he evi- dently thought toolarge. He referred to the fact that the amount of the judgment sought to be collected was only $4,500. Judge Klein said he knew that and fixed the bond double the amount. This coucluded the matter for the time being and Mr. Cunningham departed to procure bondsmen. WHITTAKER’S Star Sugar Cured Hams are preferable to fresh meat, especially during warm weather.

Dameron’s Estate—Court Notes. Inthe case of August Bollman against ex- City Marshal Martin Neiser, Judge Klein granted a new trial to-day on the ground that the verdict was against the weight of evidence. Bollman alleged that Neiser’s deputies maltreated him and was awarded $3,000 damages. Neiser moved for a new trial and got it, and a ver- dict for $250 was entered against him. Now Boliman wants a new trial, which the court allows. Edward O’Hunter was awarded a judg- ment of $76.16 by Judge Nein against the Gratiot Street Warehouse Co. in a suit for damages for loss caused by alleged delay in consequence ot a scarcity of cars. Judge Kiein granted a new trial in the case of O. C. Voelker against M. J. Cleary, in which a verdict for $37 had been rendered in favor of the plaintiff. The suit was as to the ownership of some property, and the Court held that the interest in the property allowed by the jury was too small. In the case of the Wabash Rallway Co. against A. McCabe and others, the motion of defendants, McCabe and McKeag, for assess- ment of damages on the injunction bond was sustained and damages were assessed against the plaintiff in the sum of $25 in favor of defendant. In the case of Hugh M. Thompson against James Baker the plaintiff’s motion to set aside so much of the order of April 11, 1891, as directs a dismissal of the suit was sustained and the cause reinstated.

Cook of Juneau, Wis., is being driven across country through the rain. Following him is a United States Deputy Marshal with a Fed- eral writ of habeas corpus which, if served, will again delay Cook’s removal from Chi- cago. Cook was arrested two months ago ona requisition from Wisconsin charging him ‘with * banking at Hartford and Juneau. Before the messenger from Wisconsm could take his man out of the State a writ ot habeas corpus issued by Judge Reaker prevented further proceed - ings. The hearing on the writ was postponed from time to time, and the last argument was not finished until this morn- ing. Judge Baker then remanded Cook to the Shertiff’s custody. In obedience to the requi- sition the local officer gave the man to Deputy Sherif! Pratt of Wisconsin, and the party at once drove away from the County building. Coek’s friends hurried to the Federal Court and there obtained another writ. Only twenty minutes after the banker had been hurried away from the Sheriff’s office Deputy Marshal Foster came in with the papers. He took a carriage and the chase began. Further a surprise for a patches from Wisconsin criminal proceedings would be discontinued because Cook had turned over his property to the bank creditors. Cook sought release by habeas corpus in the United States Courts to-day. Judge issued the writ, re- turnable next Monday. The writ is directed against Sheriff Gilbert; who has Cook tn cus- tody. The pe recites that there is no such crime as illegal banking provided for in the Wisconsin statutes.

PAID TO KEEP WITNESSES AWAY. John McNamara Charged With an Attempt to Compound a Felony. Application was made in the office of Assis- tant Prosecuting Attorney Estep at the Four Courts this morning for a warrant against John McNamara, who ts charged with being a party to an attempt to compound a felony. It is alleged that McNamara paid Davis Adams 318 to secure his non-attendance in the Court of Criminal Correction. Revelations were made in the latter court yesterday afternoon which form the basis for the criminal prosecution. The case against Jos. McNamara,a 16-year-old boy, charged with attempted criminal assault, was at REFORMED CHURCH SYNOD. ASBURY PaRK, N. J., June 6.—The delegates of the Genera! Synod of the Reformed Church of America, which ig holding its eighty-fifth session here, were deeply shocked at the sudden death of the Rev. Dr. James Romeyn Berry, ex-President of the Synod, at the Hotel Bristol last night. Atthis morn- ing’s session resolutions of sympathy to his family were Offered, and me- morial services were held, with addresses by a number of prominent hearing. The prosecuting witness, a 14-year- old colored girl named Josephine Adams, and her stepmother, Mrs.. Adams, were called by Judge Claiborne before the bar and interro- gated with regard to their non-appearance at the former calling of the action, The wit nesses both insisted that they had been kept at home by Davis Adams, who, they alleged, had been paid $15 by John McNamara, the fatherof the defendant, in order to effect the dismissal ofthe case. The evidence touch#fg on the alleged assault was then submitted Judge Claiborne discharged McNamara on the ground of insufficiency of testimony, holding that the intent was not clearly shown, saying, however: While Lam disposed to believe that the defendant is guilty of this assault, there is not sufficient evidence to establish the intent. However, there has incidentally been given evidence which clearly shows that the boy’s father is guilty ofa much more serious of- fense, and, while I do not wish to be placed in the light of dictating to the Prosecuting Attorney or his assistant, I think some ac- tion should be taken in this matter. The investigation which was then com- menced by Special Officers Gocking and Bam- brick of the Fourth District resulted in the application for a warrant against John Me- Namara to-day. David Adams, the father of the girl Josephine, upon whom the alleged assault was attempted is a blind negro living at 1529% North Eighth street. He was seen, and stated that about a week ago he received a message saying that some person wanted to see him at a neighboring grocery. He went to the designated place and met John McNamara who, itis said, first offered him 51.50 ff he would keep the girl away from court when the case against his son was next called. The old man refused this proposition. McNa- mara, it is alleged, next offered to give him $15 and to pay the costs of the court if he would drop the prosecution Davis consented to the arrangement, and says the money was paid to him at that time. In order to keep his part of thea ment he told his wife and daughter that they should not go to court when the McNamara case wascalled. The attachments sent out, however, secured the attendance of the wit- nesses.and the expose of the scheme. McNamara was arrested and is now held to await the action of Mr. Estep. The prisoner is a peddler. His two sons, Joseph and Michael, are both notorious thieves and pickpockets. Michael is now servinga term in the Work-house for larceny, while doth boys have been arrested times almost with- out number. It is probable that the warrant against McNamara will be issued this after- noon. Ir your grocer does not keep Whittaker’s Meat send us word and we will see that you are supplied. Marriage Licenses.

Inquiry After an Old Judgment Leads) to Interesting Developments. IRS. JUSTICE MEYER WON HER surr, BUT CANNOT COLLECT. Strange Complications Arising From a Legacy Left an Adopted Child by a Wealthy St, Louis Furniture Dealer Mrs. Meyer Makes a Discovery in the Probate Clerk’s Office. Two ladies called at the office of the Circuit Olerk in the Court-house, between 8 and 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon, to make in- quiries concerning the settlement of an estate and related a remarkable story. The estate about which they were inquiring was that of John Koppelman, a wealthy furniture manufacturer of North St. Louls, who died about seventeen years ago, The ladies gave their names as Mrs. Justine Meyerand daughter, Miss Anna Meyer, of 8955 St. Ferdinand street. They wanted to ascertain if there was any interest in the Koppelman estate coming to August Jachke. THE sTORY. Mrs. Meyer then related the following story: The young man, whois now 2 years old, had been her foster child and an heir to the Kop- pelmann estate. She had raised him since he was 6 weeks old, until he was in his 9th year, when he was taken from her by his father. The child’s mother died when he was 6 weeks old, Mrs. Meyer had lost a baby daughter and took the infant. There were three other children in the Jachke family. Agirinamed Johanna was adopted by Mr. Koppelman. The father, Robert Jachke, took the two older children and went to Kansas. When leaving he told Mrs. Meyer that if he did not return in a year the child August was hers. There were no adoption papers taken out, however. This was the last she saw or heard of the father for over eight years and believed him dead. Meantime she had grown to love the cha as though he were her own. When the little August was in his ninth year the father suddenly appeared one day and demanded his son. Mrs. Meyer refused to givehim up. The father applied for a writ of habeas corpus and secured posses- sion of the boy and placed him in charge o August Schmertmann, an uncle of the child. BECOMES AN HEIR. John Koppelman had died meantime and having no children willed $40,000, Mrs. Meyer had heard, to Johanna Jachke. Before the father, Robert Jachke, made his appearance the little girl Johanna also died. Her share reverted to her heirs, which were her father and brothers. Before the legal steps had been taken to secure possession of the boy August from Mrs. Meyer, Schmertmann had offered her $25 to give up the child, which the refused. After the habeas corpus proceedings the father of the boy said he would give her the $1,000 out of his share in his daughter’s estate for caring for the child, but Mrs. Meyer ascertained that he had disposed of his interest before he came to St. Louis. It was then agreed that Jachke pay Mrs. Meyer $150. He was then inthe jewelry business in Kansas City. Mrs. Meyer deposited the instrument given herin bank for collection, but the bank returned the pa- per, stating it could not be collected in Kan- sas City. SUES THE BOY. Mrs. Meyer then, on the advice of friends, entered for his years she had . D. Sew ard of 619 Ohestnut was the attorney who conducted the suit for her. The attorney informed Mrs. Meyer later that he had secured a judgment which, with interest from the timethe boy was taken from her, amounted to $1,900. This was thir- teen years ago. The money was never paid Mrs. Meyer however. The time passed until nearly ten years had elapsed, and still Mrs. Meyer had not re- ceived any money. She went to Judge G. W. Lubke and made inquiries. Judge Lubke had acted as attorney for Jachke, the father of the boy in the habeas corpus proceeding. Judge Gottschalk was Circuit Judge at the time. Judge Labke told Mrs. Meyer that the Kop- pelman estate was wound up long ago. This was last January two years ago. INVESTIGATING THE CASE. Mrs. Meyer went to the Clerk of the Probate Gourt who informed her that the Koppelmann estate had been administered upo@ fifteen years before. She then went toa member of the Koppelmann family, who is in business in this city, whotold her thatthe young man had drawn $1,700 when he came of age two years before. The gentleman had seen the money paid over to him. MONEY TRANSFERRED, Assistant Chief Deputy E. 8. Jeffreys looked up the case and ascertained that August Jachke had filed a deed of assign- ment of his remaining thterest in the Koppelmann estate, transfer- ing his claim to Frederick Haus- ner. The amount of the interest as set forth in the instrument is $562. Miss Meyer said Hausner is a barber on Cass avenue; 1222, she thought, was the number. Mrs. Meyer and her daughter were very m- dignant when they were informed that there was nothing left to satisfy their supposed claim, which now would amount with inter- est to over $3,000. August, she said, was at her house last Sunday but said nothing about transferring his interest. She not think the boy was so bad. | Mrs, Meyer and her daughter were of a very respectable appearance, but very unfamiliar with the ways of the’ world. Mrs. Meyer's husband had died she said shortly before they took the boy from her. ; ATTORNEY SCHNURMACHER’S STATEMENT.

New Tonk, June 6.—The charge will shortly be made in open court that there exists a conspiracy wit hnoless ambitious an ob- ject than the securing of the miilions left by A. T. Stewart. The attorney for ex-Judge. Henry Hilton and Charles J. Clinch will de- clare that William P. Smith, to whom Stewart bequeathed a house, has entered into ‘‘cor- rupt. collusion’’ with the Irish relatives of the dead merchant to deprive the heirs of Mrs. Cornelia M. Stewart of the money and property left to them by her. The attorneys will further try to prove that the suits of the Irish relatives are brought to libel ex-Judge Hilton, and that they are being pressed by a syndicate, the members of which are to re- ceive $50,000 when they gain possession of the estate for every $1,500 paid in by them now. The frst action brought to have A. T. Stewart's will declared invalid and to have nis estate divided among his relatives was that of Sarah Branagan of Ireland against G. W. P. Smith, who sought to eject him from the possession of the house No. 115 East Thirty-fifth street, which Stewart bequeathed him, Smith was in the employ of the mer- chant for many years and was a witness to his will, The plaintiff was the daughter of one ot Stewart’s first cousins, and Judge Wallace, in the United States Circuit Court a few weeks ago directed a verdict for Smith on the ground that an alien could not trans- mit the title to inherited property. As the suit was a test one ex-Judge Hilton and others who were interested in Mr. Stewart’s property employed J. H. Choate, Elihu Root, ex-Judge Horace Russell and J. Holmes, Jr., to appear for Smith. The plaintiff was rep- resented by Gen. Benj. Fuller and Wm. H. Sutter. As soon as the suit was dismissed another was brought against Smith by T. Stewart of Ireland and A. Stewart of New York, both first cousins of the merchant prince. It is in connection with this suit that the charge of collusion and conspiracy is to be made. J. Holmes, Jr., appeared before Judge Lacombe in the United States Circuit Court yesterday to make a motion embody- ing the allegations, Mr. Secor was present for the plaintiffs. It was motion day in Judge Lacombe’s court, and he was kept busy with other cases until after 4 o’clock. Consequently Mr. Holmes could not fire his bombshell, and will have to walt until next Friday. Following, however, is the motion which he wished to make: You will please take notice that on the annexed tition and the affidavits hereto attached, I shall ve this court at the chambers thereof, in the Post- office building, in the city of New York, on Friday, June 5, at II o’clock in the forenoon, or as soon the as counsel can be heard an order (1) permitting Charles J. Clinch and Henry Hilton, as executors of the last will and testament of Cornelia „Stewart, deceased, tointervene in this action and requiring them to be made party defendants thereto, on the ground that they are interested in the 8 of the action and on the und that the action was begun, promoted and ntained, notin the interest of justice, or the establishment of legal rights, but by acorrupt collusion and conspiracy to defanie and libel Henry Hilton. And (2) further requiring that the said Charles J. Clinch and Henry Hilton, as such executors, or their attorneys be presented with a copy of the summons and complainant have the usual time within which to appear and answer in the action. after such service. Mr. Holmes had about 100 pages of affidavits to support his charge that Smith set himself up as a straw man for the Irish relatives to knock down. Ex-Judge Horace Russell, when seen yes- torday expressed his unwillingness to fight his casein the newspapers. He intimated tbat his side was in possession of startling facts about the suits. The others have been shrieking fraud and perjury long enough,’’ he sald, and pow itis our turn to have an mung. have deen in the case only a year, and since that time I have heard of no syndicate formed and I believe we are right and will fight it to the bitter end. THE TILDEN WILL CONTEST. SARATOGA, N. Y., June 6,—Theargument in the Samuel J. Tilden will contest was closed yesterday. The contestants’ counsel were Joseph H. Choate, Smith M. Weed, Wm. V. Rowe, Delos McCurdy and Lyman D. Web- ster, and for the will James C. Carter, George F. Comstock and Daniel G. Rollins. The last- named trio opened the case, being followed by McCurdy, Choate and Carter. Chief Judge Follett asked to have typewritten copies of the arguments filed with the court. This will be done July 1, the copies making 4,000 pages of manuscript. CARONDELET NEWS. Arrest of Larry Haywood,a Safe Robber Notes. Police Sergeant Hess and Patrolman Thos, O’Brien made a brilliant capture of a burglar ‘about 2 o’clock yesterday afternoon. The criminal was Larry Haywood,a negro about 22 years of age. Haywood was ar. rested on suspicion of being im- featead in the robbery of Louis F. aibel’s safe last Tuesday evening. Hay- wood was flashily dressed, and when he was searched considerable money was found on his person. He denied having anything to do with the theft, and when as to how he came in possession of the money and clothes, he told a fabulous story about a rich aunt that provided for him. : An hour after he was locked up Police Cap- tain Sam Boyd questioned the prisoner very closely. He admitted having worked for Waibel for several years, but denied having stolen the money. Capt. Boyd, however was certain that the prisoner was the thief telling a number of different stories the fellow broke down and admitted that it was he who. robbed the safe of nearly $100. When asked what he had done with the money he said that he fitted out himself in a suit of clothes, bought a few pieces of furni- ture and bought several dresses, stockings and shoes for a woman whom he lived with. This morning Officer O’Brien took Haywood tothe Four Courts, where a warrant was sworn out charging him with grand larceny.

EX-PATROLMAN KICKER’S FRIEND STIL HOLDS THE POLICE INCREASE BILL. The Council Gives an Exhibition of Jug glery That Disgusts Councilman An ‘derson—A Report Promised for Next Tuesday Bvening—Seeking a Street Railroad Franchise—City Hall News. Councilman Bensiek is feeling in a jubilant mood to day over what he considers his vie- tory at the Council meeting last evening. The Council started out to take the police bill out of his hands, and after an exhibt- tion of juggiery reported it back to Bensiek’s Committee. This is the bill that provides for an immediate increase of the police force by the addition of 100 patrolmen and six sergeants, Bensiek bas delayed the bill by refusing to report it because the Police Board will not agree to put nis friend Kicker on the force. Kicker was dismissed for tntoxication ,and the board is a unit in opposition to his reinstatement, Speaking of the Council’s action to-day, Councilman Bensiek said: ‘*‘The Council did just what was right in referring the bill back to the Committe on Police. We have the bill and wil) in al probability report it next Tuesday night. So far as Kicker is concerned, I am still of the opinion that he was unjustly dismissed from the force, and I felt offended last night when Councilman Anderson dragged him into the debate. Mr. Anderson will learn before long that@he cannot act that way in the Council He may do and say what he pleases in the grain pit, but inthe Council he must not forget himself. TIRED OF TRIFLING. Councilman Anderson has become very tired of Bensiek and Kicker, and said so in an emphatic manner in the Council last evening, when he tried to have the police bill taken away from Bensiek’s committee entirely. He said to-day that the Council made a mistake in taking the bill away from Bensiek’s com- mittee and sending it back again. ‘'I thought it was high time to puta stopto such trifling with an important public affair, and I was in favor of anything to get it out of the hands of that committee. ’’ The members who voted to send the bil back to Bensiek’s committee explain that they did so because the Council could not consider the bill in the shape the chairman of the Police Committee had it when it was submitted. Insteadof making a report he simply handed in the bili just as it was when it was referred to the committee. If Mr, Bensick does not report it Tuesday evening an effort will probably be made to reorganize the Police Committee by removing Bensiek and electing janother Chairman. If this is not done the bill will be given to another com- mittee. MUNICIPAL ASSEMBLY. All the members of the Council were pres- ent at last night's meeting excepting Presi- dent Walbridge. In his absence Vice-Presi. dent Sloan presided, A communication was received from the Mayor naming Michael Cook for Assessor of the Eighth District. The nomination went to the Committee on Ways and Means. A communication was also received from Secretary John D. Finney of the Mullanphy Board, notifying the Council that four vacan- cies would shortly occurinthe board. The outgoing members are J. J. Latal and M. J, Cullen of the Eighth Distriet and F. J. Aren- des and Bernard O'Reilly ofthe Tenth Das. trict. Mr. Cole introduced a bill to more closely regulate the manner of advertising and awarding the city printing contracts. The Object of the Dill is to put a check on the queer operationsof a paper that depenis largely on the amount it can get from the city for printing contracts, None of the nominations pending in the committee were reported, though it was given out that Mr. Cullinane would surely re- port Hester. THE HOUSE. The House of Delegates passed the bill ap- propriating $6,000 for music in the parks. The bill was strongly backed by the musicians’ society. The hill providing for temporary quarters at the City Hall for injured patients was ordered to engrossment. The House then adjourned until Tuesday evening. Seeking a Railroad Franchise. A bill has been introduced in the Council authorizing Christian Peper, Robert Mc- Culloch, D. G. Hamilton and Smith P. Galt under the title of the Southwestern Railway Co. to construct and operate an electric street railway from Seventh and unn avenue to Tower Grove Park.

The Frisco under thisdecission may issue $50,000,000in stocks and bonds to replace theold stocks and se- curities,and as the Frisco officers claim, thus rescue it from the hands ofa recetver or its creditors. The Atchison railroad, which for years has made connections in Missouri, Kansas, Texas and other Western States with the Frisco, had through shrewd operations secured a controlling amount of Frisco stock, and during the past two years practically dictated actions and operations at the stockholders’ meetings. At the annual election of directors the Board of Directors of the Atchison was elected, as the Board of Directors for the Frisco through the controlling interest held by the Atchison. The Frisco at the time was said | tobe in a bad way and from affidavits read last week it was learned that the road was on the verge of bankruptcy and would hardly be able to meet notes, ponds and coupons due in July. The credit of the road was gone, it was said, while the Atchison was in perfect financial health. The new board, knowing that the public would, on learning that the Atchison was interested In the the road decided to of of new stocks and bonds to cover the Frisco’s indebtedness ot §88 ,o and use part of the remainder to recoup the road. As thecredit of the road would be re-established it was seen that a lower rate of interest could be paid, and the preferred stock of the Frisco now calling for 6 and 7 per cent interest could be recalled and 4 per cents issued in their place. This u where the preferred stockholders found an objection, and then filed suit against the Atchison and Frisco to restrain them from voting the stock held by the Atchison, being voted in favor of the issue Of $50,000,000 at 4 percent. The claim was made that the roads were consolidated in violation of the statutes ofthis State and of Kansas which prohibit competing roads com- bining to destroy competition or of ome road controlling the stock, and therefore the ac- tions of a competing road. It was a new point In law, and the outcome has been watched with interest by every railroad com- pany in the United States. Fifty of the most prominent attorneys in the city were present in court this morning when Judge Thayer read his decision which is here given verba- tion. THE DECISION. This isan application for an injunction, pendente lite, to restrain the Atchison, Topeka 4 Santa Fe Ratllroad Co. (hereafter called the Atchison Co.), from voting certain shares of stock which ft has acquired in the t. Louis & San Francisco Oo. (hereafter called the Frisco Co.) The case in all itsaspects has been very thoroughly argued, and the discussion has embraced some questions which the court deems unnecessary to decide. I shall content myself with a brief state- ment of the conclusions which I have formed on some of the more vital questions involved and for want of time shall be compelled to do so mainly without amplification or argument. he complainants, who are stockholders of the Frisco company, dase their right to relief on the ground thet it was unlawful for the Atchison company to acquire stock in the Frisco company, or at least to acquire a ma- jority of its stock. If this contention falls, complainants as a matter of course are with- out right to relief and all other subsidiary and collateral quest ions become immaterial. THE ATCHISON’S RIGHT. First. Ientertain no doubt of the fact that the Atchison company had, under its charter and the laws of the State of Kansas as con- strued by its highest court—in A., T. K S. F. R. R. Co. vs. Fletcher, 35 vol. Kan., page 225; same vs. Cochran, 4 vol. Kan., page 225; Ven- ner vs. A., T. &5. F. R. R. Co., B vol. Federal Reporter, page 2581—the requisite power and authority to make a valid purchase of Frisco stock, either much or little, unless such pur chase was prohibited by laws ofthe State of Missouri, under which the Frisco company was tncorporated; and it goes without saying that the Atchison company could not make a valid purchase of the stock of a Missouri corporation in controvention of the laws ofthe State of Missouri. The question whether the purchase of the stock was ultra vires when tested by the laws of Kansas. where the Atchison was incorporated, is therefore eliminated from the controversy and the transaction will be considered in the light of the constitution and laws ot the State of Missouri. Second. The view that the Court enter- tains of sec. 17 art. 12 af the Constitution of Missouri and of sec. 2369 of the Revised tatutes of the State, which, as ft is claimed, | rendered the purchase of stockinthe Frisco Co. unlawful, may be substantially stated as toDows: i The prohſbition contained in the statute. sec. 2,569, is clearly aimed at railroads, ‘owning, operating or managing a railroad in the State of Missouri. Ifa railroad com- pany owns, operates or manages a railroad in this State, if is prohibited, among other things, from leasing, purchasing or exercis- ing amy control_over any other rauroad in the State that is substantially parallel to cr a competitor of the road go owned, oper- ated or managed. This is in substance the extent of the statutory imbibition. Now, while copcedimg for the purposes of the present decision that the Atchison Co. at the time of its purchase managed and tre rated two railroads in this State, namely, northeast i E f a : * 5 1 8 I f 5 4 ‘ a © * * * Frisco, place cann-· 3 7 * * and th lorado road at the time ‘tthe putea ave THAT CO PROHIBITION, - sidered (and with due a ppreciation of its im- a is whether the constitutional inht- 8 — sec. 17 of art. 121s any hibition last 9 ** nen pee: Assembly has full effect to the constitutional prohibition, not in . “ee It is sufficient to court is not 12 of the constitution or — 5 failed to give it tun fect enacted sec. 25- ö 5 Statutes sec. 25-79 of the Re n the contrary Ihave no doubt that the Legislature intended to make the statute as broad as the constitution, and good reasons no doubt exist for holding that it accom- plished its purpose. It is certainly a reasonable view and one justified by the language employed that the constitutional inhibition, like the statutory, was aimed at railroad corporations which might at any time own, operate, manage or secure right to run trains over roads located in this State, and that the purpose was to prevent such a corporation from purchasing, leasing or controlling another road of the State that to or that competed with the operated or managed. Such an inhibition would certainly preserve the independence and secure competition between rival lines of railroads crossing the State in all directions and connecting im- portant commercial cente thin the State, and it may fairly be urged that this was the purpose had in view by those who formed the present constitution. THE INTENT OF THE LAW. On the other hand, it may well be doubted Whether the constitutional prohibition in question was intended to have the effect to prevent a great railroad system like the Atchison, oceupymg as it does an extensive area of country to the westward of this State, from obtaining access to St. Louis by purchase of, or Dy con- solidation with one of the four ‘or five trunk lines crossing the State from East to West— merely because the road so purchased touches some points in Kansas which the Atchison system also reaches. The preserva- tion of reasonable rates was the great object in view, and as the proof in this case abund- antiy shows, the acquisition by the Atchison company of the Frisco stock has had no effect upon rates in this State and those points in Kansas which are reached by the Frisco; and it must be apparent to anyone familiar with the railroad situation in this State and Kansas, that it cannot have any tendency ‘mn the future to increase such rates. In what Ihave just said on the point now under question, I would not be understood as deciding definitely that the prohibitions con- tained in the constitution and in the Statute are in all respects identical. It 18 unnecessary to decide that question at this stage of the case. I do not mean to say, however, that complainants have not succeeded in showing to my satis- faction that sec. 17 of art. 12 is any more comprehensive than the statute (sec. 2569), or that the Legislature has misconcelved or misconstrued the Constitution. THE INJUNCTION DENIED. From the views that I have thus outlined it follows that I must decline to grant the injunction, because the purchase of the stock was not in my judgment in contravention ofthe statute and because it is by no means certain that such purchase was prohibited by the donstitution. In a case Of this character it can hardly be ex pected that the court will allow an injunction, thereby jeopardizing great interests, upon a construction of the constitution that is cer- tainly doubtful, and that at the same time is contrary to the construction that has been adopted by the General Assémbly of this State. The motion for an injunction is accordingly overruled. A VICTORY FOR THE PEOFLE. When the decision had been read, Mr. Ed Kenna, attorney for the Frisco in this State, and Mr. Geo. Peck, general attorney for the Atchison system. were over whelmed with congratulations and sin cere praises. Mr. Kenna, in speaking of the decision said the Frisco would now proceed with its meetings and te considera- tion of the new financial plan. Meetings have been called for next Monday and Tues day. It is a great victory for the people of this city. With the new arrangersents about to be made the business men © St. Louis will have through and rapid connections to the Pacific coast and all the potnts on the two immense systems of the Atchison and Frisco. This may be considered a victory for tbe people as well as for us. Mr. Hitchcock would say nothing of his future plans in behalf of bw clients, except to state that the decision only diposed of the application for a prelim‘nary injunction, from which it may be inferred that there are other and very important points to be decided as the plan of reorgatization proceeds. Mr. Hitchcock will be present at the meetings of Monday and Tuesday and make formal ob- jection perhaps to every move made by tbe officers and other stockholders. Have You e Frame to Gilda?

William H. Sharpe Missing and Said to Be an Embezzler. ANOTHER TRUSTED BOOK-KEEPER AND COLLECTOR SHORT IN HIS ACCOUNTS. George Rodgers, a Supposed Burglar, Captured by the Police— Why John Maloney Didn’t Appear to Prosecute Wm. Warren—Burglars on North Third Street—Local Crime. Arepresentative of the feather factory of F. E. Little & Co., 701 North Main street, called at the Four Courts this morning and reported the flight of their book-keeper and collector, William H. Sharpe. An examina- tion of the missing man’s accounts showed him to be an embezzler. A little more than six years ago Sharpe en- tered the employ of F. E. Little & Co., having previously been in the service of W. 8. McMann & Co., 403 Walnut street, Kansas City. He was placed in charge of the firm’s ac- counts and was trusted implicitly in the mat- ter of collections. Three days ago he disap- peared without a word of warning. Yester- day anexamination of his books was com- menced, and ‘evidences of his shortcomings were soon apparent, As yet no estimate of the amount of the embezzlement can be made. Thus far a total of over $300 has been discovered. Sharpe is a single man 33 years old, and was raised in Shreveport, La., which city he left more than five years ago. He is 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighs about 185 pounds. His eyes are blue and his hair and mustache dark. He has relatives and friends in Shreve- port, La., Kansas City, Mo., Portland, Ore., Seattle, Wash., Chicago, III., and Denver, Colo., to any of which points he may have gone. Descriptive circulars will be sent out at once by the Police Department. Carried off Children and Furniture. Aloys Stiegers was inthe office of Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Estep, at the Four Courts, this morning witha peculiar plaint. Stiegers is a laborer and lives at 225 Douchou- quette street. It appears that when he was married, about twelve years ago, his brother-in-law Florence Will purchased a set of furniture, presenting it to him asa wedding gift. Nine months ago Mrs. Stiegers died, and since that time Mrs. Will has been keeping house for hei son-in-law. As goes the time-worn tale, the two could never agree, and quarrels were of frequent occurrence. Thursday evening they disputed with more than usual bitter- ness. Last evening when Stiegers went home from work it was to find that in his absence the house had been stripped of its effects, every article of furniture being carried away with the exceptiön ofa dilapidated lounge. The four older children were also gone, the two younger ones being permitted to remain. From some of the neighbors Stiegers learned that the brother-in-law, Florence Will, had gone to the house with a furniture cart early in the day and superintended the removal of the effects. Stiegers spent the day m the endeavor to locate his chil- dren and the furniture, but met with no success. Will lives at 2911 California avenue, but nothing was to be found on his premises. Mr. Estep was not satisfied with regard to the ownership of the property and, without further evidence on this point, re- fused to issue a warrant charging WIll with grand larceny. There was no evidence whatever as to the abduction orforcible de- tention of the four children. Stiegers will probably replevin the furniture as soon ag he is able to locate the repository where it has been stored. The property is valued at $250 or $300, a number of articles having been pur- chased by Stiegers since the presentation. Maloney Overslept Hftnself. John Maloney swore out a warrant this morning charging William Warren with as- sault with intent to kill. About 4 o’clock on last Thursday afternoon the men met at the corner of Eighth and Chestnut streets. War- ren drewa revolver and fired two shots at Maloney, neither of the shots, however, tak- ing effect. The men clinched and Warren at- temptedtofire another shot with the muzzle of the weapon pressed against Maloney’s body. Fortunately the cartridge failed to explode when the hammer fell. Mahoney held his assailant until the arrival of Officer Harry Wilson of the Central Dis- trict, who took the man into custody. Yes- terday the prisoner was released, Maloney not appearing to make complaint in the case. To-day, mowever, Maloney was on hand and explained that yes- terday he had overslept himself. The war- rant against Warren was issued and the defendant will be re-arrested as soon as found. Maloney lives at 3242 Olive street. Warren married his step-daughter several Fears ago and a demestic difficulty has kept the men on bad terms for some time. Maloney insists that Warren has several times attempted to take his life. Little Boy Seriously Injured. ‘The police are looking for a young negro named West Harper, who is wanted for careless driving. Abouté6o’clock last even- ing Harper, in charge of a team of mules at · tached toa dirt wagon belonging to one Boyce, livingin the vicinity of Tenth and Gratiot streets, drove over a 4-year-old boy named John Hodge, while crossing the va- cant lot at the southeast corner of Caroline and Joab streets. injured internally, the the wagon passing over his breast and abdomen. His parents are traveling with the trained animal show which has for sev- eral days been exhibiting on the lot where he was hurt. Seeing what he had done, Harper whipped his mules intoa gallop and made good his escape. His home is at 2339 Papin street. 3 . Captured at Last. A warrant for burglary in the second de- gree and larceny was sworn out atthe Four Wahl, 14 North Seventh street, and stole files, drills, ratchets, bits, wrenches, chisels and other tools of the total value of more than $100. He was seen by John Duffy and James Carey at the time he is said to have placed the ladder against the side of the shop for the purpose of climbing in through an insecure window. He had been employed by Wahl some time 0De- fore and excused his conduct on this occasion by telling the men that he had left some of his effects in the place. He dis- appeared immediately after the larceny and was not seen in St. Louis until yesterday, when Officer Harry Wilson of the Central District took him into custody. A Warrant for Manslaughter. A warrant for manslaughterin the fourth degree was issued by Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Estep at the Four Courts this morn- ing against Herman A. Beck. The defend- ant is charged with having caused the death of Louis Mason. The latter, a waiter 35 years old, lived at 303 South Broadway. On last Wednesday evening he was knocked down by Beck while in front of his house. His head struck the curbing, and the concussion of the brain consequent upon this shock caused his death at the City Hospital the fol- lowing day. Beck, adriver inthe employ of Sommers, Waldheim & Co., and living at 1507 South Eighth street, committed the assault. Both at the time of his arrestand at the Coroner’s inquest he stated, however, that Mason had applied to him offensive epithets without having had the slightest provo- cation. Burglars Shot At. Shortly after 2 o’clock this morning Private Watchman Van Tilburg liscovered two men in the yardin the rear of the shoe manufac- tory of Schaefer, Schwartz & Co., 1126 North Third street. At the officer’s approach the men took to their heels, leaving behind them in their fighta sack containing twelve pairs of ladies’ shoes. Van Tilburg chased the fugitives and fired three shots at their retreating forms, but without effect. An investigation revealed that entrance had been effected into the factory and the shoes removed by way of a window. No other property has thus far been missed. Van Til- burg can give nothing more than a general description of the burglers. Betrayed Under Promise of Marriage. A warrant for betrayal under promise of marriage was sworn outat the Four Courts this morning against David O’Connell. The defendant lives at 1207 North Fifteenth street. Maggie Broderick, a sweet-faced girl 17 years of age, living at 1509 O' Fallon street, alleges that during last May O’Connell, un- der promise of immediate marriage, accom- plished her ruin and now refuses to fulfill his vows, They Will Fare Worse. James Callahan lost three of his boarders to-day, Deputy Sheriff Skidmore removing Charles Thompson, John Malloy and John Clark from the depths of the jail and starting with them for the penitentiary at Jefferson City. Thompson will serve eight years for burglary in the first degree and larceny, while Malloy and Clark will each do three years for burglary in the second degree and larceny. John Rellaford Missing.

Lonpon, June6.—At Oarnarvon yesterday Richard Coleridge Duncan was committed for trial for the attempted murder of his wife. Duncan is the son of an Episcopal minister at Earlville, Chester County, Md., and went to North Wales ona pleasure tour with his wife, whom he ran away with against her parents’ wishes, Duncan had about $50,000 when he went on the tour, which brought him to England, and having spent it all was despondent. A quarryman saw Duncan on May 12 last near Bettws-Hy-Ooed in North Wales stooping over the body of his prostrate wife, holding a huge stone in his band. Her head was in a crevice of the rocks and was badly battered. As soon as Duncan saw Evans he told him to run fora doctor, that his wife had fallen down the rocks. The rock he had in his hand was cov- ered with blood and hair. Later Duncan told the attending physician he injured his wife and was sorry for it and said farther that he had taken a boat intending to drown himself and wife, but did not have the heart to doit. Friends in the United States are furnishing funds to defend him. Fancy Duck Vests $1.00. These vest are great bargains, fit well and laundry well.

The St. Louis Spanish Club is arranging a business excursion of its members to the principal cities of Mexico, the objects of the excursion being first, the opportunity to be- come familiar with the Mexican customs and methods of business, and also the pleasure of a trip covering some 5,400 miles through this country and Old Mexico. The excursion will be limited in number to twenty-five, and as there are doubtless many local business men that would wish to send a representative along to study the outlook for Spanish-American trade, the demand for places will be strong. It is estimated that the trip will cost not over $175 for each person, including Pullman hotel car accommodations. The excursion ar- rangements are under charge of Secretary S. L. Biggars, and the following committee: H. J. Bliss, chairman; F. Harrison and D. 8. Green. The Spanish Club quarters are in the Mermod-Jaccard Building. Trunks and Traveling Goods. The largest and best assortment of Steam- er, Dress, Saratoga and Gents’ trunks of every description, and a full line of Seal, Alligator and Grain Leather bags and gatchels, can be had at pricesto suit the times, from the old reliable house of P. C. Murphy, Third and St. Charles streets. Leiderkranz Summer Programme.

Rain Mars the Opening Day of the St. Louis Meeting. , THE DERBY WILL BE DECIDED ON A Corrigan’s Row With Hankins—Latham’s Coaching Held Responsible for the Cincinnati League Olub's Poor Work- Baltimore Loses the Fourth Game to St. Louis—Sporting News. Fate was against the St. Louis Jockey Club’s opening to-day. Everything indicated a most glorious opening until rain set in this week. Yesterday enough rain had fallen to make it certain that the track would be heavy and this morning there had been enough un- loaded on the track to make ita certainty hat it would not only be muddy but sloppy. The rain continued to fall with slight intermissions, all morning, and while it was atno time particularly heavy, there was more than enough volume to it to relieve any doubts there might exist in the minds of anybody that the track would be watery. Despite the miserable weather, it was de- cided that the racing should take place. There will only be three horses in the Derby, in all probability, Micbael, Balgowan and Col. Wheatley. Chimes is in poor shape and will not start. There have also been a number of horses scratched in the other events. Michael sold in the auction pools last night at $125 to $25 for Bal- gowan and $15 each for Col. Wheatley and Chimes. He will therefore probably be about a 1 to8 on favorite in the bonks this afternoon. There will probably not be more than twelve or thirteen bookmakers on the track this afternoon, but they will be here in numbers Monday. The event of Monday’s programme will be the Debutante Stakes for 2-year-old fillies, half a mile. It closed with seventy-five entries, including the California crack Yo Tambien, Adalla, Bracelet, Addie, Greenwich, American Lady and Grey Gvose. The Keane filly Invercauld and the Goodwood Stables filly Inez by Casino will probably go to the post. Besides the Debutante stakes the programme will consist of a selling race, one mile and 100 yards, a mile race, a mile and a quarter race anda mile and an eighth race. THE CORRIGAN; HANKINS ROW. A Chicago telegram says: A lively row on the turf is forthcoming.’’ In fact, its disturbing influence is already felt in sporting circles. The trouble has all come about over the organization of an asso- ciation for the purpose of controlling a race- course, which, according to the plans, will overshadow the new Cicero track, and the leasing of the old West Side Driving Park for a term of four years with the privilege of an extension of twenty years’ time. | Something of the same kind of a row oc- curred last year. Thenit was Corrigan vs. Hankins et al., and Corrigan was the winner. Now it is Hankins et al. vs. Corrigan, and the best legal talent in Chicago says Hankins and his association will come out ahead with hands down. The fact that the Hankins brothers, John Condon and M. C. McDonald, backed by Western and Eastern capital, have formeda strong syndicate and intend re-opening the old West Fortieth street track, is well known. The enemies ofthe new project have hunted up an old law which gives the Park Commis- sioners power to abate horse racing, gam- bling, or offensive or dangerous amusements within forty feet ofthe boulevards or West Side parks. The attention of the Park Commissioners was called to this statute, and the Commis- sioners have decided to exercise their sup- posed power. Mayor Washburne was informed of the state of affairs and posted on the law, so that when the new association asks for a racing license he way know how to act. Petitions from the property-owners are be- ing circulated among the residents of that part of the city. All this is playing into Corrigan’s hands, and he himself is working night and day to defeat the new project. But Hankins et al. anticipated the snag, and before taking a lease of the driving park consulted the best talent on the legal aspect ofthe subject. The result was favorable to the plans ofthe association, and the lease was signed. In the meantime the work at the new course is progressing rapidiy. In less than fifty days the ground willbe open for turfmen. Engagements for horses are belng made. The Dwyer Brothers of Brooklyn, will have stabies in the park and will run their horses on the track. The plans forthe new grand stand are complete, and everything is going along as though there were no West Park Board. The legal point on which the backers of the enterprise base their confidence is that the law is unconstitutional. MORRIS PARK MEETING. NEW YORK, June 6.—At Morris Park yester- day Belwood, who sold even favorite with Dalsyrian, was given a dose of Injection Jack’s’’ fluid, which is supposed to put new vigor into a horse. It rendered Belwood crazy and the horse fell and rolled over Taylor, his jockey, but fortunately the latter was not seriously hurt. Bergen was given the mount, but the horse was then withdrawn without any official annountement. There was an immense amount of money bet on him and the greatest confusion prevailed. It was declared that as the horse was put in the starter’s hands the bets must stand. Afterward Mr. Withers ruled that money bet on the horse after Bergen was announced to ride in Taylor’s place should be refunded. This caused a kick, many bookmakers refus- ing to abide by the order. L. O. Appleby’s colt, Picnicker, was the favorite for the Withers Stakes for 3-year-olds, one mile, and won handily by two lengths from Montana, the second choice. Mr. Dwyer’s expensive colt Bolero sulked and ran miserably. The Debutante Stakes for maiden 2-year-olds was won easily by Anna B. of the J. A. and A. H.

TURF TALK, Jockey Fishburn, who was ruled offat La- tonia last year for the supposed pulling of Roseland when Kingman beatthecolt, was refinstated yesterday. Kingman has since proved so good a racehorse that is now ve- Heved that Roseland was not pulled, but was fairly beaten by a better colt. Secretary Brewster of Washington Park Chicago, received a letter from the Dwyers, stating that Potomac and Kingston would be sent to Chicago beyond a doubt. He also got word from the Morris Stables, an- nouncing that they would send Strathmeath and st. August and from Walcott & Camp- bell, stating that Snowball and Pessara would be on hand. It is announced that Mr. J. B. Haggin's great race mare, Firenzi, the Queen of the Turfandan equal favorite with Tenny for the Suburban Handicap, broke down at Mor- ris Park yesterday and will probably never race again. BASE BALL. It looked for awhile yesterday afternoon as if the Baltimores would win a game from the Browns, but they did not. McGill, who was inthe box for St. Louis, was touched up rather lively, but Stivetts was substituted and the game saved. Boyle also took Mun- yan’s place behind the bat.

Thatthe Cineinnati League team is made up of strong players there is not a shadow of a doubt, but the persistence with which they hang on tothe tail end grip isa surprise to everybody who knows anything about base ball, says a New York telegram to the Cincin- nati Enquirer, There are people who attribute Latham’s talk as one of the puzzles. To-day’s Telegram, for instance says: ‘‘It is certain that the continual prattle of Arlie Latham had much to do with the rattling of Tony Mullane in yesterday’s game. Hecouldn’t steady himself and had but little control of the ball. Several times Mullane asked his captain to keep still, but if anything these requests induced him to talk more. When once rattled the Giants had no difficulty in winning the game as they pleased.’’ The Herald takes the same ground, but as- serts it more positively, as follows: It seems strange that such a strong team, individually, as the Cincinnatis, can not made a better showing. Since the opening of the season the club has been losing games by ‘dead’ ball-playing and no one has been able to discover the cause. The Herald, however, can point out the trouble right here, and with authority. According to the manager and players of the team Capt. Latham is not a captain at all, and the men under him are without con- fidence; and are dissatisfied without measure with the talkative third-baseman. ‘*‘When ‘Lath’ issues orders they are in the form. of ‘guys’ and ‘jollies,’ and his behavior in the field fails to stir up any feeling of ro- spect among the men over whom he has ju- risdiction. The Cincinnatis, to a man, are disconcerted. They have an idea that they can’t play good ball under Latham, and that seems to settle it. In yesterdgy’s game Latham worked for the grandstand and let his men do as they pleased. He began his chestnuts and witti- cisms. early in the game, and finally was asked by Mullane to keep quiet while the lat - ter was in the box, but ‘Lath’ kept on. Mullane was as wildas a hawk anyway, and couldn't curve a rope around a barrel, but when Latham ‘chewed’ at him ‘ Antonio’ became headless and was a pitiful spectacie. He was playing foot-ball or craps, and was soon off the earth, McPhee or Reilly, rule | i 1 lll é 71185 HE 72 3 888 E Ea 7 * 2 ie fat sy “4 * no 1 2 grees; * Bs > tap, for 4 ne * 1 N rt * 4 : ae St 1 z * * ~ so * * 5 22 _ OBICAGO, June 6.— The races at Corrigan’s Doxey, ; Fred } action to be induced by personal motives.

Athletic American Associa- tion game at Cinc ti yesterday was post- poned on account of wet grounds, All of the Western Association games were postponed yesterday either on account of rain or wet grounds from rain. The Athletics have set Sanders who will graduate from next Thurs- day. It is said he will receive $5,000 for the balance of the season. Callihan and Mc- Keogh, the pony battery of the club, will pro- — be released to Louisville or Washing - on 5 The St, Paul Olub will contest in court the cases of Shortstop Ely and Pitcher Mekin, who jumped their contracts recently to sign with the Louisville Association team. There is no defense for the action of the Louisville Club, and it is the only disreputable step taken by the Association during the present base ball war, all previous acts of this kind being confined to the National League. FOOT RACING. Peter Priddy of Pittsburg, w was de- feated on Saturday last by Harry Darrin, the English champion, has challenged the latter toanother three-mile race, says the New York WORLD. He claims that he was out of condition and hopes to make a better race the next time that they meet. **I will race Priddy or any other runner in the world,’’ said Darrin yesterday. The better plan would be to enter into a sweep- stakes, open to anybody, as I have learned that several aspirants were looking for my scalp. I would suggest that the stakes be $500 a side upward, the money to be placed in the hands of some responsible person, This would give McClelland, Grant and Priddy a chance. At any rate f we can’t arrange a — I will meet Priddy again on his own terms for $1,000 a side. Darrin has made this city hishome. He is in fine condition and takes practice spins every day.

Mr. Mills has been called to this city on private business, and will prob- ably remain here for several days. In con- versation with a representative of the Posr- Disrarch, Mr. Mills said: The prospects now all point to the election of a Democratic president. The people at large are not at all pleased with the extravagance of the party in power, and there is a general feeling that there ought to bea change, and that the Democrats should be given an opportunity of showing what they can do. Ihave very little doubt that Har - rison will be succeeded by a Democrat. In fact, unless something most unforeseen oc- curs this appears to me to be a Ma. „Wim the next House adopt the Reed rules?’’ No, it win not. The Democrats have al- ways denounced the rules of the last House and do not intend to copy them, There is but one feeling: That the rules of the preced- ing House should be adopted with few, if any, chafiges and that no attempt should be made to retaliate on the Republicans. for the manner in which the last House was run. ‘*Will the Farmers’ Alliance in Texas op- pose the Democratic party?’’ Not in the smallest degree. The Farmers’ Alljance men, almost without exception, are in favor of the Democratic party for all party measures. They are Democrats first and Farmers’ Alliance men afterwards. The Democratic party has nothing to fear from the Alliance in my State. Mr. Mills declined to discuss the Speaker- ship contest or the presidential nomination.

Clement Lester, a boarder at the residence of A. M. Candle, 1224 North Third street, be- came violently insane about 10 o’clock last night. He was first heard screaming in his room, and several of the other resi- dents rushed to the apartment. On their entrance Lester seizea a piece of.cord and passed it around his neck, drawing taut the strand forthe purpose of choking himself. The cord was taken from his hands and he then endeavored to throw himself head first against the wall. A few moments later he was observed in the act of drawing out his pocket-knife, which weapon was secured after a hard fight. For two hours the attendants wrestled with the maniac, watching him every moment for fear ofthe successful termination of one of his attempts at self-destruction. At 1 o’clock this morn- ing the man was as violent as ever. Officer O’ Hara then sent foran ambulance, and the patient was removed to the City Hospitai for treatment. Lester is a German, about 88 years old. He has been boarding with Mr. Candle for the past eight or nine months, and on no other occasion showed any evidences of insanity. He has been employed for several months in a down-town box-factory. 80 far as known he has no relatives in St. Louis. None of his acquaintances can tell anything of his history.
