SIx d Sino, N. Y., July 7.~The second lega electrocution in the world’s history took place this morning, The four condemned murderers met their doom in the following order: Slocum was killed at 4:42%, Smiler at 5:14, Wood at 5:89 and Jugiro at 6:06. The lights inthe prison building are usu- ally put out at 4o0’clock every morning or a few minutes after that time. At that hour there is enough gray daylight to permit the keepers from falling over things or mistak- ing each other for trusties. This morning there was a change. The lights went out half an hour earlier than usual and those of the curious ones who remained in front of the prison all night noticed that some- thing . was happening. The watchers outside had grown very suspicious of the new Warden, Brown. They thought it would be just ike him to execute the men at some un- expected time and then say nothing about it for hours afterward. So when at 3 the lights went down it was believed that some- thing was to be done with the dynamo which kills and which has to have all other power shut off when it runs. Up at the north end of the prison yard where the engine room is and where the swift and smooth working killing machines run in the cover of an old peaked building, there is an exhaust steam pipe which betrays the movements inside. When the dynamo is running there comes from this pipe a thick cloud of steam. That isthe sign. After the lights were shut down this morning steam stopped coming, and then there came out such a cloud that there was no mistaking it, The dynamo was run- ning. Tests were making, and, for all those on the outside knew, the guards might be binding a man like a sheep on a bundle of tagots before taking him into that waiting chair, Tor oο’tm an hour the dynamo was kept running, and its force was not expendéd in making lights either. Then it was stopped fora time. BEYOND THE DEAD LINE, The day broke this morning upon a row of very tired menwho sat on the stone wall opposite the prison outside the dead line. The wind had gone down during the nighit, and there was enough air stirring to flap the sails of a pair of schooners which were going out with the tide. The guards who patrolled the dead line had turned very insolent. Their long walk of the night ruled their tem- pers considerably, and at that early hour of the morning they had reached the state where they would have been glad touse a club on some one. Beyond the few rifie-laden guards at that time there was nothing amor that human beings lived in the prison. ot the slightest trace of life was visible. There are usually among the trusty convicts who work for the warden and who work about the house and office some who rise vory early. There were none ing, but perhaps that had little „ The prison isso shut up within itselt that the worst kind of a tragedy might occur within its walls and no one outside know anything about it. The hour of 50’clock came and went and there was nothing more to show. There was not a hint from those walls. The curious group lounged on the stone steps and the biuff opposite the prison, the only disturbing element being a freight train which rumbied along through the two tunnels and sent up in the open space between a cloud of Diack einder laden smoke. It rolled on its way south and as the echo of the wheels grew fainter the half of a man’s body stuck out of the west window of the cupola. rf 21 i | 175 keit i 2

It took the attendant five minutes to go to the top of the prison and hoist the signal gust legal witnesses to the killing, but this is the imperfect list: Dr. r erty yee bay Daniels, Buffalo; Dr. Carlos F. McDonald, Board of Lunacy, New York; se D. Rockwell, New York; Dr. uel B. Ward of Albany; Dr. Franklin Townsend, Barker of the local prison staff; Dr. Haram- berger, Prof. Lewis, H. Landy, New York; Father Hogan, the Rev. John B. Croden. Deputy Attorney General Hogan, F. F. Davis, electrician and Charles Durston, the Warden of Auburn Prison. All of the witnesses had remained in the prison all night. It was the idea of the Warden to keep them within the State Dr. Al walls where they couldn’t be interviewed, | and where they would have no chance to talk to anyone. He kept them pretty well. In the interval of waiting this morning there were two things to talk about the first was as to what color the next flag would be, and the other was as to whether or not Lawyer Haire had succeeded in his mission. He came to the prison last night and showed @ paper said to have been signed by Judge Lacombe. No one knew what it was or how much import it carried. It was after midnight when he got an audi ence with the Warden, and it was said that a heated confab followed. Deputy Attorney- General Hogan was called down, and the three had it out together. Mr. Hatre left the prison very early this morning and went back to New York, leaving the result of his trip very much in the dark. There was not much time for speculation as to the result of Haire’s mission, for at 5:44 O' clock a black fag went up tothe pole. It settled all argument concerning the negro Wood, who killed his companion on the Aqueduct during a quarrel. It announced, according to previous arrangements, that the negro was dead. ä The sun, which at its first rising gave prom- ise of a fair and bright day, had kept so se- cluded that it looked as though the gray dawn effect was to be a lasting one. The sky was gloomy, the mist on the river thickened and the waves, which broke mournfully on the shore, were in perfect harmony with the gen- eral surroundings. It seemed as though the customary awakening in the prison was to be overlooked for one day. The prison cows were not driven down the hill from the stable as usual. Trains shot underthe tunnel with an angry roar and passed on to their differ- ent destinations. There was nothing else to break the spell. JUGUIRO’S END. The Jap, that big, muscular shibuya, Juguiro, who, in a fit ef rage, stabbed to death one of his countrymen, was to come mext. The flag of death for him was red. It was believed the taking of the foreigner to the chair would be a hard task and that there would be sucha scenein the death chamber as the Warden, who talked of killing men as he would of beheading chickens for his Sun- sd dinner, could not forget as long as he ved. The Jap had queer ideas about the death. He believed that when he was taken tothe my sterous real beyond, he was to be tortured. He had said as well as he could that he would fight before he would sit inthatchair. A displacement of the wires or of the harness, caused by a struggle, would mean torture. The watchers anxiously looked up at the pole on the roof to see the red flag announce to them the death of Juguiro. It was long in coming. The fact savored of a struggle. It was all over with presently, The law had bee carried out to the letter and the red flag went up. The Jap died at6:060’clock. —- The entire time consumed in executing the four men was one hour twenty-three and a half minutes. IN THE DEATH CHAMBER. DETAILS OF THE MANNER THE CONDEMNED MET THEIR FATE. SN SN, N. Y-, July 7.—Soon after4 a. m. the witnesses and jurors were ushered intothe death chamber. The experts had examined exerything and were satisfied that there would be no hitch. Slocum was awakened at 3:30 and as he rose from his cot e asked: Is it time?“ Not quite yet, principal Keeper Con- naughton replied, ‘‘butit will be soon now my boy. Slocum gave a sort of gasp as he realized that his last hour had come. Never- theless he steadied himself, and after a trem- ulous minute or two he said: All right, I will be ready.’’ He bathed his face and hands and made quick preparations for his breakfast. While he was waiting for his last meal on earth his spiritual advisors came into his cell and passed abeut fifteen minutes with him. He received Holy Communion. His break- fast was ready. He ate sparingly of boiled eggs and coffee and at 3:15 he signified that he was ready forthe supreme trial. The in- vited witnesses who were anxiously waiting Yor the death scene up their positions. There was not as much formal order about the march as there used to be in the walked steadily to -the . His arms were tied Dehind his back and a strap on his legs al- lowed him to tep about twelve inches at a pace. Notimc was lost. When the death- chamber was reached Slocum walkedto the fatal chair and sat down. His feet were tied and his arms and head firmly fixedto the proper places. He was ready in a moment. A moment later Warden Brown touched the bell andthe current was applied. He died quickly. Slocum met death bravely. As nearly as could be learned now his death was quick, sure and painless. His bearing was that of fear, but he nerved himself to the point where he seemed indifferent. He was strapped firmly in the chair and when every- thing was ready the signal was given which launched him into eternity. The working of the apparatus was perfect, so it was said. There was no repetition of the frightful torture such as Kemmler suf- fered and the lack of bungling at the first electrocution. The signals were given quickly when the unfortunate man was in the chair. The full current was turned on and in less time than it takes to tell Slocum was dead. The electric current was kept on until the men of science pronounced him dead. Then his.lifeless form was removed and the chair made ready for its next victim. Five minutes after he was killed, the black emoke from the stack told that preparations were being made for the next man. Half an hour after Slocum was awakened Smiler had been aroused, and while Slocum ate his breakfast Smiler was being prepared for his crisis by the Rev. Dr. Edgarton. ; Exactly thirty-one minutes after Slocum’s dead body had been removed from the chair to the autopsy room Smiler was placed in the tofdeath. Ina fraction of a second after straps were secured the fatal spark was applied and Sutiler’s soul was on its way to join that of Slocum. One of the jury fainted but Keeper Connaughton’s presence of mind quelled consequent disturbance, Wood was prepared next and he was executed at 5:88 Oo clock. The execution of Jugiro, the 6- foot, 190. d Japanese sailor, had been left till the in expectation of a struggle. The ex. was realized. He did struggle pectation with the guards, but was overcome and placed in the chair and electrocuted. INTERVIEWS H WITNESSES. THEY RECOUNT THE SCENES IN THE CHAMBER OF DEATH. Sine Sine, July 7.~—One of the witnesses briefly tells the story of the execution as fol- lows: *‘About 4 o’clock the witnesses and jurors were let into the death chamber. Tie examined panied by Father Creeden. He seemed to be making a tremendous effort to keep lis He had Father com posure, : OCreeden’s last offices and oo had Geciared himself ready to die, He was then Auburn; Dr. 5 firmly strapped into the chair and the death current applied. Death was instantaneous. There was a sudden contraction of the nerves and then all was over. Smiler followed next. The Rev. Mr. Edgerton cheered himup. Be- fore Smiler had time to think he was strapped intothe chair and an instant later the cur- rent of electricity was flashed through him that sent him into eternity. Next to follow was Wood, the negro. He had been worked up to a state of religious enthusiasm and while in this frame of mind he was fastened to the chair and killed by the fatal shock. _Jugiro was stubborn to the last. There was the usual ferocious, ugly look on his face. He was closely guarded and short work made of him, There was no apparent hitch in the four executions and they were pronounced a success. The death of the four men appeared to the observer to be painless, Death came like a flash. It was one awful shock and then came oblivion. The doctors took charge of the four bodies immediately after death, be- * an autopsy to discover as far as possible ow rapid had been the killing and the pre- cise effect produced. A TERRIBLE ORDEAL... : The witnesses were besieged by reporte as soon as they made their appearance from the prison. All of them refused to say any- thing, however, except that the executions had passed off without any hitch and had been a success from a scientific standpoint. Warden Brown had laid a strict injunction of secrecy upon them all,and had evidently made such an impression On their minds that they were loth to talk. All looked thor- oughly used up and exhausted. They had been through a terrible ordeal, and the effects were plainly visible upon their faces. F. A. Brown, Purchasing Agent of the State Prison, said that there was no doubt that the electrocutions were absolutely painless. The horse killed yesterday in the final test of the machinery, he said, ‘‘was done be- fore it fell. Its eyeballs were as natural as in life after death, and this was the condition of the men put to death this morning. Each walked calmly to death, and there was not a struggle or hitch at any stage of the proceed- ings. When the current was turned intoa man’s body he died so quickly that it was difficult to realize that death had occurred. Rev. Mr. Law, the Tombs chaplain, said he was pledged to secrecy , but he was willing to say that death had come instantaneously ahd painlessly, and he considers electrocution a decided success. Two of the witnesses, who refused to give their names, said: ‘‘All the electrocutions were completely successful and without a flaw. None of the men struggled or resisted when placed in the chair. Instead of doing so they assisted the Deputy Warden in ar- ranging the straps as Kemmler did at Au- burn. The Jap, Jugiro, whoit was thought would be hard to handle, was perfectly do- cile. Allthe men were killed on the first contact. The positive electrode was applied, as in the Kemmler case, to the top of the head and the negative to the leg. Most of the wit- nesses will remain to the autopsy. The autopsies will probably not be concluded be- fore 10:30 or 11 o’clock. DR. LAW CONVERTED. Rev, Dr. Law, Chaplain of the Tombs, New York, who was the assistant of the prison Chaplain anda witness, said: ‘‘I was fully convinced that the killing of murderers by electricity was a failure, but I am now con- vinced tothe contrary. Every one of the men went tothe chair calmly, and died easi- ly and without pain or contortion. Death was instantaneous. I am bound to secrecy, and can say no more.’’ George Edward Oliver of Albany, a wit - ness, said: ‘‘I came here because I am a per- sonal friend of Warden Brown. I can say nothing about the execution because I, to- gether with all the witnesses, signed a paper last night at 10 o’clock pledging myself to secrecy.’’ Asked by a reporter if the execution was a success he nodded assent. He was asked if Dr. Law’s statements concerning the quiet manner of the victims and their instantane- ous deaths were true and he said they were. So far as he could judge as a layman the exe- cutions were a success. Ex-Warden Brush, under whose adminis- tration the apparatus was erected, drove through the grounds on his way to the depot. Asked concerning the appliances, he said: Everything was in perfect order when I left” it, and I have no doubt that the apparatus was used just as I planned it, because we had it in the best of working order. The appli- cations were made to the head and calves of the legs, so that absolute connection with the spinal cord was obtained. We killed a horse with it and I think it was possible to success- fully killa man every two minutes in this way. It took about a year to fix the buildings and construct the apparatus. Everything was done in the most thorough manner, and I don’t think the present Warden has to change a thing. TO TELL THE STORY. NEWS GATHERERS EAGER TO GIVE THE FACTS TO THE WORLD. SING SING, July 7.—The crowd which linger- ed along the road in front of the prison when the witnesses began to arrive was not large. It was composed almost entirely of the rep- resentatives of newspapers and of the two press associations. Warden Brown had de- clined to permit the representatives of the press associations, to have access to the exe- cution chamber, either as witnesses or as associations and it was known several days betore the execution took place that the facts must be obtained from the private citizens who had been invited to be present, if they could be persuaded to talk. Extensive preparations had been made to handle what news could be obtained as rapid as possible. Near the place where the temporary execu- tion room had been built was a trestle run- ning above a series of lime kilns. Adjoining this was a small frame building of two rooms. This building had been leased by the prison people to the lime company, which sublet it for the occasion of the execution to the rep- resentatives of the press. Wires had been strung to it and operators sat with fingers on place. The Western Union Telegraph had put extra operators in its office at the rail. road station not far down the track to — the reports of the special correspond - ents. MISTAKES AVOIDED. THE ELECTRICIANS PROFITED BY THE BLUN- DERS AT AUBURN. SMO SWO, N. T., July 7.—The mistakes of the electrical operator who made the execu- tion of Kemmler a part failure, were avoided to-day. The causes of the delays at Auburn were known to the Warden at Sing Sing, and had been anticipated in the arrangements for the execution ofthe four who were put to death to-day. The tested voltage of the dynamos had been brought up to 8,000, while into Kemmier’s body was only 780. The weakness of the current at the Kemmier execution was chargeable in part to the slipping of the belts on the dy- namos and especial attention has been taken to avoid these to-day. The dynamo used was a Westinghouse, a counterpart ef the ma chine used at Auburn, but it was supple- mented by a smaller dynamo intended to aug- ment thecurrent. The arrangement of the apparatus for the testing strength of the cur- remt was Clumsy at Auburn—so imperfect that through the neglect of one of the electricians the incandescent lamps used to test the volt- age were left burning and absorbed the greater part of the current when it was the key from midnight Sunday waiting to send the news that the execution had taken. the estimated voltage which was turned. reviving it was some time before the Warden could get to the men in the other room to tell them to turn on the current again. At to-day’s execution, the executioner was in a small closet with an open top, through which he could hear anything said to him by the warden or any of his assistants, and the electricians were in the execution chamber itself. Besides by an arrangement of the switches, it was made possible for the elec- trician himself to turn the current into the execution chair, or to turn it off in case the executioner should become confused or fail to respond to the warden’s signals. With these precautions it was thought that every chance of failure had been provided against. The death-chair wasof almost exactly the same pattern as the chair in which Kemmler was executed—a plain wooden chair with perforated wood seat, the back having a slight incline. Near thetop of the chair- back was a beveled cushion of rubber for the prisoner’s head and neck to rest against. Above this extended a wooden ‘‘figure 4, wooden set-screws tothe back of the chair. In front of the chair extended a foot-rest to which the legs of the prisoner were to be bound. This was the only important particu- lar in which the chair differed from the Kemmier chair. Kemmler’s legs were sepa- rated and fastened tothe front legs of the chair in which he sat. The chair was placed on a rubber mat to insulate it. A FRUITLESS ERRAND. LAWYER HAIRE’S LAST ATTEMPT TO SAVE THE LIFE OF WOOD. New Tonk, July 7.—Col. Robert J. Haire, counsel for Wood, left for Sing Sing last night on the 10:45 train witha writ of habeas corpus and a citation to Warden Brown to produce Wood before the United States Court, which Haire claims will act asa stay and prevent his execution, at all events, for so me time to come. The story of this move to prolong Wood’s life is like this: Lawyer Haire saw Judge Lacombe at Athens, N. Y., on Satur- day evening last when he applied for the | writ, atthe same time showing the Judge a certified copy of a notice of an appeal which he had served on Chief Clerk Sparks of the Court of General Sessions, which was placed on file. When Mr. Haire saw Judge Lacombe on Saturday last the latter promised to for- ward the writ of habeas corpus and other papers to the Circuit Court Olerk’s office in the Federal building by 8 o’clock yes- terday afternoon, but reach there before 90’clock lagt night, and on their arrival they were accompanied by a long letter of instruction from the Judge to Clerk Rogers, who retired to an inner room for some time before communicating the re- sult to the counsel. The contents of the letter were not divulged to the reporters, but they resulted in the Clerk cutting the Judge’s signature out of the papers before giving them to Mr. Haire. Clerk Rogers told the counsel that that action was taken in accordance with the Judge’s order, as Mr. Haire had neglected to pay $1 fee at the Circuit Court of this district, and so he was not entitled in the District Court, al- though his name appears on the rolls of the United States Supreme Court in Washington. Mr. Haire was highly indignant at the cutting out of the Judge’s signature, but took the papers to Sing Sing for service on Warden Brown. He told a reporter before leaving that the certified copy of notice of appeal served on Clerk Sparks, andthe appeal now pending before the Courtof Appeals in this State, would act as a stay and prevent Wood’s electrocution. He stated thatthe action of Clerk Rogers in cutting out Judge Lacombe’s Signature from the writ of habeas corpus and the citation would amount to nothing, asunder the United States Supreme Court decisions (Wallis 34) the law overrules any rule of the District Court. He said: ‘‘The paltry excuse made that 1 have failed to comply with the rule of the Circuit Court in this district by neglecting to pay the $1 fee for registration does not amount to anything, as they don’t dispute my admission to the United States Supreme Court bar, where I have practiced in Wash- ington for years. You may gay I shall serve the papers to-night on Warden Brown, and the appeal alone will act asa stay.’’ Clerk Rogers of the District Circuit Cour said, however, that such was not the case; the writ of habeas corpus was without the judge’s signature. He also said that ifthe counsel had offered to serve the papers with Judge Lacombe’s signature attached he would have been liable to disbarment for practicing in a court to which he was not admitted. The petition to the Circuit Court states that Wood is illegally deprived of his liberty by being incarcerated in Sing Sing in violation ofthe United States constitution; that the grounds of his detention are his being under sentence of death under chapter 489° of the laws of 1883, which state that heis tobe kept in solitary confinement until the date of the sentence of death originally ordered, and that that time has long since passed, since which time his case has been argued before the Supreme Court ofthe United States, which fixed the date of his execution during the present week. The petition also sets forththat Wood’s counsel objected to the fixing of the date on the ground that Wood had already served part of his sen- tence, i. e., solitary -confinement, and that the court had norighttofix a date for the sentence, because no record of the case was before it at the time. Also that an appeal was then pending before the Court of Appeals of this State. The petition alleges that the law for the ex- ecution of criminals by electricity is uncon- stitutional on the ground that itis cruel and inhuman. THE AUTOPSIES. — M’DONALD’S OFFICIAL STATEMENT NOT GIVEN OUT TO-DAY. Sine Six, July 7.—Atlp. m. Dr. South- wick, Dr. Daniels and Deputy Attorney-Gen- eral Hogan came out, got into a carriage and drove tothe station. Dr. Daniels and Dr. Southwick said in a very significant way that each of the executions were similar to that of Kemmier. Kemmler was shocked twice. Asked if they meant that these men had been twice shocked they said that they did not care to talk any further upon the subject. Mr. E. A. Brown, the State prison purchas- ing agent, said: ‘‘I think they have just got through with the body of Slocum, and are now at work on another. The law require that each body shall be autopsied and re- ported upon. They will not finish to-day, and r. McDonald’s official statement may not be given out for some days.’’ The autopsy of Slocum was confined mostly to the brain and heart to find out how the strong current had affected them. The brain was congested and atevery place where the contact was made the tissues were burned and destroyed. * DR. INTEREST ABROAD. PUBLIC SENTIMENT STRONGLY OPPOSED TO THE NEW METHOD. Loxpon, July 7.—Great interest is felt here in the subject of New York electrical execu- tions and the leadmg papers have ordered full reports. Public sentiment is generally adverse to the method owing to the results in the Remmler case, the details of which were perhaps somewhat exaggerated in transmis- sion by cable. Some indeed, go so far as to compare the electric plant with the tortures of the inquisition, which it is said to resemble all the more on account of the profound secrecy which it is attempted to observe.

HAS NOT ACCEPTED. 2 — —— — Rabbi Sonneschein Sends a Challenge to Rabbi Blackstone of Chicago. HIS VIEWS ON THE PROPOSED COLONIZA- TION OF HEBREWS, He Sends an Open Letter to the Chicago Rabbi Which Contains Some Plain and Blunt Language—He Challenges Him to an Open Debate—A Rather Spirited Controversy. An open letter written by Rabbi 8. H. Son- neschein of this city, under date of July 5, to Rev. William E. Blackstone of Chicago has created considerable of a stirin the Windy City, especially among the Hebrew residents. The letter, which was published In the Chi- cago Herald, reads as follows: To Rev. William E. Blackstone of Oak Park: REVEREND Sirn—You inyaded my home (and the homes of many other American rabbis) with your printed pamphlets published in favor of your pet schemes concerning the restoration of a Hebrew commonweailthin Palestine. I am obliged to tell you in plain and blunt language that these, your solicitations, are uncalled for. They are prompted by misguided zeal and founded on utterly false prem- ises. This sounds rather discourteous. But a severe mistake challenges earnest rebuke, and you are severely mistaken! Lam ready at any time and place you may desig- nate to demonstrate in public debate how utterly de- void of fact and critical application your arguments in behalf of the political and national restoration of Palestine are. You certainly think you ceuld back your assertions with any amount of really conclusive —— But let me tell you, you are severely mis- Ken. Please — your solicitations, and let us aione until you will have convinced us with something more substantial than a mere tissue of pious fancy and well-meant but ill-spent phrases. Yours in love of truth and humanity. : RAI S. H. SONNESCHEIN. COULD NOT BE HARMONIZED. Rev. Dr. Blackstone is aChicago clergy- man who seems to have given especial atten- tion to the Hebrews. A couple of months ago he and some other Chicago ministers had a debate with the rabbis of Chicago in how far Christianity and Judaism could agree, it being the purpose of the Rev. Blackstone and his associates to endeavor to effect a consolidation of the He- brew and Christian religions. His views were not accepted, however, bythe Chicago rab - bis, who could not see how the twocreeds could be made to harmonize, and they agreed to disagree with him. A couple of weeks later Rev. Blackstone got out a petition signed by hundreds of people residing’ in Chicago and elsewhere, requesting President Harrison and Secretary Blaine to intercede in their official capacity withthe powers of Europe for an international conference to consider the condition of the Jews and their Claims to Palestine as their ancient home. Since then Rev.. Blackstone has issued a printed circular in both English and Hebrew in which he advocates a Hebrew common- wealth in Palestine. These circulars he has sent out to Jewish rabbis and others of the Hebrew race in all sections of the country and it is thought that the circulars have even been sent to Europe. At the end of the cir- cular is a foot note reading as follows: ‘‘Copies of this leaflet in English or in Hebrew jargon furnished free to any who will distribute them to the Jews. Address William E. Blackstone, Oak Park, Oook County, III.“ WHAT HE ATTEMPTS TO SHOW. In these circulars Rey. Dr. Blackstone seeks to show that according to the Old Testament or Hebrew Bible God intended that the Jews should return to Palestine. He quotes freely from the Old Testament in his endeavor to support his claims and places im certain passuges his acceptation of their mean- ing. These Old Testament Rev. Blackstone's ideas in sen larstothe Hebrews ig to convert views of the matter and to get their ald scheme to estabii hre common | Palestine to > * Northwest Corner Broadway and Olive St. Jews when the Turks are given to under- stand that it is God’s wish. Rev. Blackstone’s circular has not met with the encouragement he desired among the Israelites. Rabbi Sonneschein and various other prominent Hebrews take the stand that while the Rev. Blackstone evidently means well he Is badly misguided, andthat his plan fora Jewish commonwealth in Palestine is thoroughly impracticable. They hold that it isabsurd to claim that Turkey would ever surrender to the Jews so valuable a country as Palestine which is such an important Key to the Eastern situation. His views on the Old Testament they claim are entirely wrong, but they fear his circulars may mislead ignorant members of the Hebrew race and cause some of them to suffer unnecessarily by going to Palestine under the mistaken im- pression thatthe Turkish Government will surrender the country to them. DR. SONNENSCHEIN SEEN. 0 Rev. Rabbi Sonneschein, when seen to-day, said he had not yet heard from Rev. Black- stone in reference to his challenge, but the latter had not yet had time to reply. At present he did not care to talk on the sub- ject, as he did not wish to be dragged into any wrangle with the Chicago clergyman, SMALL FIRES, An Incendiary’s Work—A Gasoline Ezx- plosion.

THE WOMAN NOW DYING OF INJURIES INFLICTED BY THE ROBBER. A Probable Tragedy on a Flatboat An- chored in a Lonely Place on the River Bank—Albert Whitefield Sentenced to Twenty-five Years for Murder—Police News. Ind a squalid home on a miserable looking, weather beaten and dingy flat-boat anchored tothe shore on the North st. Louis lumber landing, between Buchanan and Dock streets, lies an aged Irish woman, Mrs. Mary Ann O’Neil, at the point of death. She is being cared for by friends with the best friendship that can be given her in the miserable neighborhood, which looks more like an Indian settlement than it does like civilization. The unfortunate woman is not alone the victim of poverty’s pinches, bat is in a dying condition froma brutal assault made on her night before last. A priest was called in to wait on her yesterday afternoon. A short time ago Mrs. O’Nelil’s husband died. He was an industrious and frugal man. At the time of his death Mrs. O’ Neil occupied a flat boat on the beach four or five hundred yards back from the river amid a clump of underbrush. The spot wasa lonely one, On Friday night as Mrs. O’Neil tells her story, and it has all the indications of being truthful, she retired at about 8:30 o’clock, being exhausted after a long day’s work. She | slept very soundly and between 1 and 2 o’clock that night she was abruptly disturbed and badly frightened by feeling a rough hand placed over her mouth. She attempt- ed to cry out, but was almost suffocated. had almost killed Mrs. O’Neil by Kicking her in the right and left side of the body, inflicting serious inter- nal injuries. Capt. Kiely was notified to-day of the assault on Mrs. O' Neu and also her destitute condition. An investigation will at once result. The burglar no doubt knew — N any husband during lite and doubt- e that he left some considera money behind. : * Given Twenty-Five Years.

An Official Inquiry to Be Made Into the Work-House Management. THE O'KEEFE CASE AND OTHERS TO BE TAKEN UP THIS WEEK. — Guards Who Shoot and Kill When They Feel So Disposed—How the Inquests on Two Victims Were Conducted—Chair- man Able of the Work-House Commit- tee Promises a Searching Investigation. At last there is to be an investigation of the nt of the City Work-house. Chair- — house Committee of man Able of the Work- 0 me Board of Public Improvements said this morning that he would begin the investiga- ton Thursday, and he would conduct it with the co-operation of the Board of Charity Commissioners. **I have read of the O' Keefe case and others in which cruelty is alleged,’’ ne sald, and the public can rest assured that the inquiry will be searching and com- plete. If it proves that any of the guards down there have practised such cruelties as are reported they will be handled in a summary manner. It may be, however, that the reports are greatly exag- gerated, but the inquiry will be so complete that we expect to gather all the facts. From what I can learn of the O’Keefe case, the al- leged beating was administered before the present superintendent assumed charge of the Work-house. The Board of Public Improvements practically manages that institution by reason of the factthat materials are produced there for public work. The prisoners in times past have been em- ployed on public work, such as grading and making new streets, The board is in favor of a rigid discipline down there, but will not tolerate any brutality on the part of any of the guards towards the prisoners. INVESTIGATION BADLY NEEDED. 0’ Keefe’s family is positive that the beating he received whilea prisoner at the Work- house is responsible for his present confine- ment in the idiotic ward of the City Insane Asylum and they are anxious to have aninvestigation made. There are others as eager to see an Official inquiry inaugurated without delay. In addition to the terrible drubbings administered by work - house guards on defenseless prisoners of late, there have been no less than two hu- man lives taken by these same employes of the city. Inquests were held in both cases, but care was taken in the se- lection of jurors and the examination of wit- nesses to protect the guards. The more aggravated of these cases was that of the negro, Henry Trabue, who was killed by Guard Thomas P. Duggan on the night of May 20. Duggan was an extra guard at the Work-house having employment only when the regular guards were not on duty. Trabne was well known at the Work- house, having been sent there frequently for drunkenness and other petty offenses. On the night of the killing Duggan met Trabue out of the Work- inclosure on Meramec street, thinking that he was rying escape proceeded to take him in hat In doing this he broke his umbrella ver Trabue’s head and then shot him in the ead, killing him. There was an investiga- ion made by the Coroner but no effort was madeto get any facts further than those favo to Duggan. A QUEER INQUEST. A jury of politicians was selected to pass on the evidence and they returned a verdict justifying the killing of the negro. The jury was composed of Peter R. Morrissey, Dele- gate James H. Cronin, J. C. Adams, H. Bern- ing, Chas. Clements and Thos. E. Ryan. The transcript of the testimony was in the course of timeturned overto the Assistant Mr. Estep. He read the evidence, but found nothing that would warrant him in issuing a Warrant for Duggan. Care had deen taken Duggan’s friends to make a good showing forhimin the investigation. Wit- nesses were summoned to testify that Tra- bue was a dangerous character, but the fact that he was a ‘‘trusty’’ at the Work- house es notindicate that the management re- irded him as such. og Catcher Burke was killed on the 2d of February this year. Guards Helaire, and Lenoth were sent out to house ' * PRE In the language of the President of the Mercantile Club, while this perspective of the proposed new club building to be erected on the southwest corner of Seventh and Lo- cust streets has been accepted in preference toeither of the other four premium plans that have been selected from the competi- tive drawings submitted by twenty-two architects, it by no means follows that the design herewith published will be strictly followed in the erection of the projected structure. It has been selected from among the five sets of preferred drawings, simply because it comes nearest in according with the ideas of the Bullding Committee named by the club to carry out this building enter- rise. » The club now has five different designs, either of which it may use, or portions of all of which may be incorporated which has yet been produced. The probable changes have not been determined upon, and are not likely to be for some time yet. The alterations, however, will be agreed upon by the club’s chosen architect, who for this reason will hold various conferences with the Building Committee. It has been suggested by the President of theclub that the roof, the most attractive feature in the accompanying perspective, will be changed very much. In fact, he says that style or roof may be done away with altogether. So far nothing has been definitely decided but the selection ofanarchitect. This was the first essential important step to take. With- out an architect the Building Committee had noone with whom they could intelligibly confer with as tothe dimensions, style or or- namentation of the proposed structure. All that has been done so far is simply prelim- inary work. part of some of the members to put up a higher buliding than six stories, but they did not talk soonenough. When this matter of the height of the building was first decided there was nota man in favor of ten stories who opened his mouth. When a man advo- cates a ten-story building it means some- thing. Heis expected to back up his theory with a good round subscription. Since it was decided to carry out the six-story plan a few of the members have talked ten stories in a very business like way, but, unfortunately, such men have not been numerous enough. Now, under the circumstances, the club can do but one thing with regard to this enterprise, and that is to put up the best building it can with the amount of money subscribed. The club has defined the extent of the money it intends to invest; it has an architect and he will be so directed as to cut out the building accord - THEY TOLD FIBS. The Efforts of a Young Couple to Ob- tain a Marriage License. ‘sTHER LEMER GIVES MARRIAGE LICENSE CLERK HARMAN A SCORING. She Said Her Father Was Away and Her Mother Too Sick to Come and Testify to HertAge—Her Father Turns Up and Prevents the Document Being Isgued— Cupid Chagrinned. My father don’t know how old I am! The speaker was a young girl, and she stood facing Marriage License Clerk Harman, her eyes flashing with anger as a Post-Dis- PATCH reporter entered the Recorder’s office this morning. The reporter’s advent checked what had evidently been quite a spirited little speech by the young lady, who was very pretty. She was small but looked womanly. Her complexion was fair and theshadeof her hair was that of a light brown. Her age might range from 17 to 0 to judge by her ap- pearance. she had a companion in an old woman who was leading achild. They both left the office as the reporter entered, Clerk Harman following them tothe door and ex- plaining to the younger one who, however, only tossed her head, and went north on Broadway talking animatedly with her com- panion. A4 LOVE CASE. The history of the case as related to the re- porter by the marriage license clerk dates back ten days, when a couple called for a marriage license. The youngman gave his nameas Henry Loenwenthal of 6310 New- stead avenue and his age 23. He is proprie- tor of the Newstead Avenue Dairy at the number givenas his residence. The young woman, who was the same the reporter saw this morning gave the name of Esther Lemer of 1012 Wash and her age as 18, Marriage License Clerk Harman, who Is the best judge of a woman’s age in St. Louis, thought she looked a little young, and asked her what year she was born in. This she could not state. He then asked her if her parents were living. She replied that they were but that her father was a traveling salesman and was out of the city,. She was then asked if her mother could not identify her being 18, and she replied that her mother was sick. The license was refused, although the girl offered to bring the medicine her mother was taking to prove that she was telling the truth. The couple then departed. A FRIEND IN NEED. At 40’clock yesterday afternoon the couple again called at the marriage license department. They were accompanied by a friend who refused to give his name, but stated he kept a store on Franklin avenue. He wanted to iden- tify the girlas 18, stating he had known her all his life. When told he would have to give his name and make oath he backed out. Clerk Harman then asked the prospective bride if she had no older sister who could identify her, and she said she had, giving the name of Mrs. Lena Finkenstein at Eighth and Biddle. The groom elect was dispatched for Mrs. Finkenstein, Miss Lemer waiting in Re- corder Hobbs’ private office, the Recorder kindly consenting to keep the office open after ö o’clock until the return of the groom. When the young man returned he was ac- companied not by the sister, but by a wo- man who stated she was an aunt of the bride- elect. She was willing to testify that the girl was 18 years old. When Loenwenthal and his intended first called at the Re- corder’s office last evening Miss Lemer announced herself able to give the date of her birth. It was,she stated,Jan. 12, 1872. Clerk Harman paid no attention to the statement. When the aunt, however, offered to testify to this the clerk called her attention tothe fact that that would make the young woman over 19 years. The aunt said no, that she was only 18. The clerk still refused to issue the license. The aunt would not give her name. THE GROOM ANGRY. The would be benedict then became angry and stated that he could not afford to lose so much time. He had his business to attend to, he said. Clerk Harman said he was sorry and would do all in his power to assist him, and suggested that the young man make his affidavit and he could then return to his dairy, and that Miss Lemer could re- turn this morning with. her sister and if everything was all right she could get the license.

The Treasurer of the St. Louis Company on the Situation. The yeast war, in which Fleischmann & Co., the Fermentum Yeast Co., the Queen City Eureka Yeast Co. and the St. Louis Bakers’ Compressed Yeast Co. are engaged, and which has resulted inacut of prices on the partof the three com panies first named from 2% centstol0centsa pound, shows no signs of abating. William E. Beckman, Treasurer of the st. Louis Bakers’ Uompressed Yeast Co., said: ‘‘I saw in the PosT-DispatcH of Saturday that the old companies asserted that, owing to the high price of grain, they could not manu- facture at a profit on the old scale of 20 cents a pound, and therefore were obliged to make an advance to 2 cents. our company, which is entirely a local organ- ization and was formed by 159 bakers, shows the contrary. We have been selling right along at 20 centsand declared a dividend of $10a share on the last three months’ busi- ness. We could do the same now and there is certainly no reason why the other companies should not. Of course there is no profit at 10 cents a pound, but at 20 cents there is. The whole thing seems to be an effort on the part of the foreign corpo- rations to freeze out the St. Louis concern; while they sell at io cents a pound to their own customers, they give the yeast away to any of our consumers who are willing to take it. Even at the present high price of grain we would make money at 0 cents a pound, Stock · holders ofthe St. Louis company are not inclined to credit the assertion that the war is caused by the Fermentum Oo. cutting prices against the other corporations. It is believed that all are under the same man- agement, and that an effort is being made to crush a local rival. MEANT TO MOB HIM. Angry Victims of the Finan cial Co-Oper- ation Schemers.

Our able boy correspondent who cham- ioned the cause of boys and cat-guns yes- 18 | terday with the vigor of a tin-plate tax ad- vocate, generously refrained from charging womankind with a long record of unmiti- gated cruelty in the free use of slippers and switches upon his kind, but he neglected no other point of vantage. He called into requisition irony, satire, sarcasm, psychol- ogy, sociology, physiology, philosophy, the argumentum ad puleam and the consti- tution of the United States to prove the in- alienable right of boys to carry cat-guns and use them at pleasure. ‘But the arguments of The Boy’’ are vain. He forgets that other people have rights of property and security. He is supremely unconscious of the law. He as- sumes too much in assuming that he is the accredited protector of society by force of arms against the mangy cur and the squalling cat and that he is the judge and upon his own decision the abater of nui- sances. He does not discriminate between the right to bear arms for defense and the use of them for offense. He overlooks altogether the rights of his neighbors to peace, the security of their property and the safety of lives and limbs. The boys are welcome to their cat-guns, and the unrestrainéd enjoyment of them under proper circumstances. They may perfect themselves in markmanship by shooting at targets in open fields, when no one is around to catch stray missiles, as much as they please, but when the skins of others are punctured, eyes are put out, windows are broken and lives, limbs and property are endangered, as must neces- sarily be the case when guns are used in the city limits, mangy curs and squalling cats are blessings in contrast with a boy andacat-gun. Besides the law prohibit- ing the discharging of weapons in the city specifically mentions cat-guns, and there are laws against wanton cruelty and the slaying of birds. If the boys of the cat-gun brigade will not inaugurate a movement among them- selves to obey the law and respect the rights of others they must be compelled to do so either by the heavy hand of parental authority or the strong arm of the law. The cat-gun and similar devices as weap- ons of offense must go. — 1 — — - 2 4 WeErejoice that the SunNDAY Post-DiIs- PATCH was enabled to place Mayoress Packsox of Kiowa right before the Ameri- can people. She is not a depetticoated virago who wants to inaugurate a general swapping of sex; she has not whipped all the cowboys and saloon men of her neigh- borhood; she has not turned her husband over to the tender mercies of the cock- roaches and ‘‘sich’’ of the holdover be- cause the fragrance of the mint lingered on his breath. On the contrary, she has no husband, and is a gentle, quiet woman who bears her honors | modestly, and has a high sense of ber duties and responsibilities. She says she is determined as far as lies in her power to make a clean, respectable, peace- ful and prosperous community of Kiowa. We commend this resolution to the Mayors of the country, some of whom, although inclined to snesr at petticoat government, are not worthy to touch the hem of her skirt. We must commend also as a new and refreshing element in politics the modesty which objects to undue prom- inence in the press and before the public. Long life to Mayoress PACKSON. — — — — Ir is not easy to believe that Bank Examiner DREW’S omission of 5544, 800 from the liabilities of the Keystone Bank and $729,308 from the assets in his state- ment of that institution’s condition was due, ashe says, to inadvertence. And if he was guilty of such astonishing inad- vertence, it is difficult to understand why ComptrollerEacky asks for his resignation with sincere Fegret. Even informal and incomplete reports, such as Mr. DREW describes this to be, do not usually contain such glaring errors, and whether it was accident or a good-natured accommodation to Mr. WANAMAKER’S friends, it is proof that Mr. Drew is an unworthy officer. The probabilities, however, point to the urgent need of another scapegoat, and Mr. DREW may yet play that disagreeable, though perhaps profitable, part. It isa very dull day when we are not treated to a new Keystone sensation. WE beg to remind the manufacturers of American flags that there should be forty- four stars in the field of blue.

WHO IS THE THIEF? The Pacific Express Robbed of a Money Package. MESSENGER CLEMM KELLOGG 18 LAID OFF IN CONSEQUENCE. He Is Believed to Be Innocent and the Company Will Not Prosecute—The ‘Stolen Package Contained a Lottery Prise for a St. Louis Ticket-Holder— The Officials Talk, A St. Louis man hit the Louisiana lottery at its last drawing for $5,000, but he didn’t get his money, and this is why Mes- senger Clem Kellogg, of the Fa- eine Express Co., is suspended, and detectives employed by the company are shadowing all the other messengers on the Iron Mountain Road between here ang Memphis. The %,000 was won by one of the 82 tickets most of those who play the lottery in St. Louis buy. The holder of the ticket waited for two weeks after the drawingto get his money, having seen his number printed as a prize- winner, but it did not come, He then wrote to one of the New Orleans agents of the lottery, inguiring why his money had nat been sent. THE PACKAGE STOLEN. | The agent went to the main office of the lottery and the books were examined. The St. Louis prize had been sent off with the other prizes that had been drawn a few days after the number had come out of the wheel. This was tel- @graphed to the st. Louis man, and he replied that he hadn't got the money. The company then reported the loss to the etpress company and an investigation was set on foot. The package of money was traced from New Orleans to Memphis and then disappeared. Messenger Kellogg, whose run is from Memphis to St. Louis, and the messenger between Memphis and New Orleans were held responsible for the lost package. The Southern messen- gersaid that he had checked the package over to Kellogg, and Kellogg declared that he had not received it. TWO MESSENGERS IN TROUBLE. Atany rate, it was certain that both the package and its accompanying way bill were gone when Messenger Kellogg turned over the contents of his safe at St. Louis. The express officials were in doubt what todo. Onthe face of it, Messenger Kellogg had lost the package. According to the rules of the company its loss fell on his shoulders, but practically it was by no means clear that he had ever taken it intothe car with him at Memphis, where one express messenger turns over packages to another One tallies the pile of way - bills in his hand, and the one who is receiving the parcels tal - lies his check-book. The man with the way- bills runs over them rapidly, calling them out to the other, who checks them off. When that is done the receiving messenger gathers up the way dis and the packages and tosses them into the car. A CARELESS SYSTEM. He rarely counts them and examines to see if the packages, the way bills and the checks correspond. A messenger who wants to steal a package could do so easily through this system. Calling off the way bills to the re- bil after the other had checked it, and having previously concealed the package he wanted to make away with he could after- wards getit. The receiving messenger would then have receipted for a package he never got, and would be legally responsi- ble for it and liable to criminal prosecution if there were any circumstantial evidence tending to show that he had stolen it. KELLOGG NOT PROSECUTED. All this is well known tothe express officials, and Manager Kellogg made his defense on this ground when he was asked totell what had become of the package. The messenger between New Orleans and Memphis rested his case on the proof by the check book that he had given the package to Mes- senger Kellogg. Messenger Kellogg's reputation was very good. He had been for years a trusted employe of the company, and there had never been any charges brought against him. Besides, he had influence in the company’s offices. His brother-in-law is Harvey Raymond, a route agent of the company. Considering all the circum- stances, the officers decided not to make the disappearance of the package public, as would have been done by the ar- rest of any messenger, and went to work to find the lost money by their own detectives. STATEMENTS OF EXPRESS OFFICIALS. Supt. Fuller, who has been working on the case, said to-day: I .don’t care to say a word about this. I wouldn't mind talking if I thought the public would be benefited in the slightest de- gree, but I’m not going to gratify mere idle curiosity. I don’t talk about my business untiiI have got in shape, and I won't say a word about this yet.’’ ‘*Will you answer some questions about the matter?’’ . It depends upon what they are.“ Has the package been recovered?’’ **T dave nothing to say.? **Will you prosecute the messenger?“ „„ won't answer that. General Agent H. O. Woodman sald that as Supt. Fuller had had full charge of the case, he knew very little about the latest developments ‘‘I heard the story from superintendents,’’ said he, ‘‘and as the case didn’t come under my control I didn’t busy myself with it.’’ MESSENGER KELLOGG DEFENDED. The various messengers of St. Louis, who know Kellogg,sympathize very strongly with him, and believe him entirely innocent, were hinting at some sort of a conspiracy by others to put the burden ofthe theft on nim. ‘ is a very clever man, nothing of his reputation for honesty, said one, and to steal a pack age in this way would be the last thing a smart messenger would do.“ In the meantime the St. Louis man who drew the prise is in a pretty plight. He doesn’t like to expose himself by insisting too strongly upon restitution of the stolen money, and yet he thinks the lottery company and-the express company, too, might be a little more energetic in their efforts to recov- er the lost package. REFUSES TO EXPLAIN. When ©. D. Kellogg, the express messen- ger, was seen at his residence, No. 1235 Bay- ard avenue, this afternoon, he refused either to admit or deny the charge and said that he . preferred not to make any statement at all in regard to the matter for publication. When asked again if he were guilty, he answered Nou ought to know that if I were guilty I would not be here now, which was, of course, tantamount to saying that he was innocent or that there was no evidence of his guilt... Me referred the reporter for further information to the manager of the company.

Dr. Joseph De Forrest, rector of the Episcopal Church of Fort Worth, Tex., is in hot water. The press of this city have pub- lished telegrams received from Fort Worth, concerning the rector and the vestry of the chureh, There is considerable friction in church affairs, andthe minister and vestry cannot agree. The congregation is also up in arms, that isa portion of it. One sideis for their rector and the other against him. It is also alleged that Mr. De Forrest got into a drunken row in which a demijohn was smashed. In Carondelet, where Mr. De For- rest was well known, having been rector of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church for five years, these stories caused quite a sensation. De Forrest took charge of st. Paul’s Church in 1881, where he remained until 1886, when he resigned and went to Texas. While rector of St. Paul’s Church he had numerous friends. In 1886, a few months prior to his resigning his office as rector of the church, some very unsavory stories were Circulated concerning him. He was accused of being intoxicated and circulating scandalous stories about some of the members of the church. SERIOUS CHARGES PREFERRED. Charges were preferred against him by Mr. Ira C. Terry, a well knowh lawyer of Caron delet. Bishop Robertson promised to examine intothem. It was said that when the bishop came tothe city De Forrest would secure a leave of absence and remain away until the bishop returned home. How- ever, the vestry of the church re- mained true to their rector. The stories that were reported to the Bishop were discredited and subsequently learned to be unfounded. Bishop Robertson and the vestry ofthe church held a meeting at De Forrest’s home on the biuffs. The meeting lasted until quite a late hour into the night, and at times waxed quite warm. Bishop Robertson heard the evidence dt two or three persons who had charged the minis- ter with being intoxicated and talking disre- spectfully ofa member of his congregation, but it was impossible to prove the ng me Bishop Robertson exonerated De For- rest, after taking the case unde? advisement for several days. Shortly after that little incident De Forrest resigned as rector of the church. Messrs. Boyd, John- ston and Everest, who were intimately ac- quainted with De Forrest, in an interview this morning with a Post-DisPATCH reporter said that De Forrest was not a drink- ing man. He was never known to be under the influence of liquor, they said. He wasa man that was outspokenand fearless. There were a few people who disliked him for rea- sons that have never been revealed, and who took unlimited time and pleasure to do every- thing and anything to ruin his character. CARONDELET NOTES.

There is a big inclosure in the front yard of the St. Louis Insane Asylum that has about it an air of mystery, but which is nothing more nor less than the play grounds of the unfor- tunates in the institution. Yesterday afternoona couple of city off clals and other visitors took a drive through Tower Grove Park to the big n out on Poverty Hill, and incidentally witnessed a rather unusual sight. About 2 o’clock the doctor in charge said: * Do you want to see them come out?’’ „Why the patients; we turn nearly all of them out to play when the weather is nice.“ The visitors took seats on the front porch of the asylum and watched the crowd of male inmates of the institution gather on the lawn to the east of the building. Therejwere only four or five attendants in a crowd of about 200 insane men, yet they were all or- derly and quiet. When the crowd was well bunched up the word was given, and they all started toward the big or little inclosure. A stout,yellow-haired boy, with a vacant look on his face, dropped out of the crowd and came up to the front entrance, gave the dog- tor a kpowing nod and passed into the office, and ing to a corner he seemed to know w picked up a couple of base ball bats, a mask, some gloves and a catcher’s shield. He then went towards the inclosure and 7 inside the big white gate. While the boy was getting the bats and balls twoofthe atten ts were ok two nines fromamong the insane. It took buta few minutes and then the game started. All those not playing grouped themselves about 1 rng! places and watched the game with quiet interest. The rules of the game were strictly ob- served and some of the men played remark- ably well. There was a noticeable lack of noise and shouting and nearly all of the coaching and talking was done by the at- tendants. The game, all things considered, was a d one, as only four or five runs could be made by either side in an inning. The play lasted about five innings, when the atients began to. tire of the and the alls and bats were abandoned. During the entire time yesterday afternoon there was no misconduct on the part of any of those either in the game or looking on. : Dr. Herman sald: We often go down and game ourselves just to take a hand in the keep the interest by We never have any trouble and the patients always enjoy the playing.’’ The Fan games are played almost every nice afternoon by h patients as can be permitted to go out e playgrounds.

He started to do 80 as also did the boy, butthe two got off on op- posite sides of the track. This seemed to flustrate the father, and he recrossed the track to get to his son and attempted to take him to the other side. The attempt proved fatal, as the train was upon them and threw both into the air. They fell to the ground before the eyes of the horrified wife and mother.

Harbor Commissioner Able Is Now the Municipal Pooh-Bah. The Board of Public Improvements helda regular meeting this morning at 10 o’clock. President Burnet was not present, as he had left the city the night before on a month’s vacation. Secretary Foster called the board to order, and Capt. Dan Able, the Harbor Commissioner, was elected President pro tem. evidently by a caucus arrangement of the members, as Secretary Foster put the motion as if there had been a previous under- standing. Capt. Able will act as President of the board until Mr. Burnet returns from fils vacation. The position now held by the Harbor Commissioner is a rather Pooh-Bah, one as in some instances he is two members of one committee, he hastosign papers and reports as Harbor Commissioner, and then climb up tothe third floor of the City Hall and approve his own reports and papers as President of the board. Capt. Able will, however, try to hold down the dual position as best he can. The only objection he makes isthatas Harbor Commissioner his office is on the ground floor, and as President of the board it is on the third story of the bullding. Commissioner Murphy submitted the can- vass of bids for some street work, and made the additional recommendation that the bond and deposit of Thos. H. Claydon be forfeited as he had failed to execute his contract within the time fixed by law.

The Judge in acting upon theircase said: ‘‘It is a greathardship to fine a man for trying to keep clean. There should be something done to provide public bath houses for the common ple. Under the law and evidence you are both guilty. I will assign you, however, the lowest fine the , Ordinance allows $3 and costs.“ EXCITEMENT ON ATCHISON PLACE.

Hermann, it is claimed, rushed out and knocked one of the boys down and kicked him. He was up before Judge Paxson | this morning ona charge of disturbing the place. The whole neighborhood was present toappearagainsthim. Hermann swore that he saw the boys throw water over the fence, and that one of them, Frank Koeller, came intothe yard and mistreated his little girl. He run out, he said, and taking him by the arms, shoved him off the premises. The Judge thoughtthe provocation sufficient to warrant the use of suffictent violence to eject the offender, and Hermann was discharged. The neighbors were not appeased.

SAILS FOR SAMOA. —— — myreatened Revolt Against the Rule of King Malictoa. — ee THE WARSHIP IROQUOIS ORDERED TO PROCEED TO APIA. — — Mateata Heading a Movement Against the Monarch—Bank Examiner Drew tion-Oensus Statistics — Town Site Trustees Washington News. wasnixeTon, D. C., July 7.—The Navy De- rtment evidently fears that trouble is lx ely to arise in Samoa between the follow- ers of King Malietoa and Chief Mataafa. In- structions have been issued to the Iroquois, stationed at Honolulu, to proceed at once to Apia. The Charleston will probably be sta- tioned at Honolulu in the Iroquois’ place. Recent dispatches show that Mataafa has been for some time planning a movement for the deposition of Malietoa, At the head ofa hand of followers he, a few days ago, went to Mohe where the details of the movement will be agreed upon. Mataafa is backed by the German influence on the island, and can count upon a large element among the natives, who are discontented with the rule of Malietoa. From the instructions given the Iroquois, itis evident that the interests of Americans in Samoa are to be looked after in the event of another outbreak of native violence. DREW MUST GO, THE BANK EXAMINER REQUESTED TO FORWARD HIS RESIGNATION. WasHINGTON, D. C., July 7.—National Bank Examiner Drew has been requested to sendin his resignation on account of his failure to satisfactorily explain his omission of the Keystone National Bank’s clearing- house indebtedness, amounting to $544,851.46, from his report of the Habilities of the bank on Jan. 24, 1891. Mr. Drew’s explanation of the omission, as officially made to the Comp- troller of the Currency, under date of June 30, is as follows: as confounded at the omission, and I can ac- * the fhe certin responding amount should have ap debit side, either in ‘stocks, Ste., on d,“ or in ‘deficit account, or in both.

These were included in my report in account of bills dis- counted, which agrees with that account as shown on the general sheet ofthe bank, less $226,000 placed in the report in —. house account. As stated in my letter of transmittal the report was informal and incomplete in many respects, owing to the fact that many of the accounts were then andforsome time afterwards undergoing verification, but notwith- standing these embarrassments the omission referred 1 not have oceurred except by accident as stated. Ineed notadd how great my regret at the inadvertence.

SIDNEY, New South Wales, July 7.—A scull- ing match for a stake of $10,000 a side and the championship took place to-day on the Para- matta, between James Stansbury and John McLean. Stanbury won the race. The last race between these two oarsmen took place on the same waters April 20 and was also won by Stansbury. On the other hand in a previous match on Noy, 17 last, Nan defeated Stansbury. This second defeat of McLean by Stansbury gives the latter a clear title to the world’s sculling championship. When McLean beat Stansbury in their first race last November it caused general surprise, and charges were made that Stansbury did not lose on his merits.

MEMPHIS, Tenn., July 7.—A party of five men claiming to be a Government surveying party sent out to set headstones along the meridian line were in the vicinity of Purvis, Miss., a few days ago andafter they had gone, an old-rusty cannon was found near a hole in the ground where it had evidently lain buried for years. The cannon is supposed to have been filled with money and buried there either during the waror ee before the war. James Copeland and his gang of murderers, who terrorized that neighborhood before the war, were in the habit of burying their plun- der in old pots and cannon and other metalic receptacies. Copeland was finally caught, tried, convicted and executed. CHEAPER THAN ANTHRACITE For stove, grate or furnace, PITTSBURGH CRUSHED COKE. DEVOY & FEUERBORN, Sole Agents, 704 Pine street.

Appeal will be taken to the Territo- rial Supreme Court. The question involved is whether the Cherokee Legislature had author- ity to grant Guthrie the right to graze his cat- tle on the strip, the court deciding it in the negative. Guthrie, who is a full-blooded Cherokee Indian, has been grazing his cattle there fortenyears. He now has 8,000 head there valued at $110,000. To the Traveling Public.

When O’Connor, the American champion, was in Australia last year he rowed Stansbury on June 23 and the Australian won. A foul was claimed and the race was rowed over on June 80, Stansbury again winning. Stansbury’s only other really important races. were those with McLean in November and April, but Stansbury participated ina number of events of less consequence and showed himself to be a great Oarsman. McLean ise younger man than Stansbury, and is a protege of Ed Hanlon, who, when in Australia on his second trip, picked him up as a green country boy and taught him to row. His first race was with Perkins, the ex- champion of England, whom he easily de- feated. Many of McLean’s earlier contests were skiff races. It was not until last year that he became prominent, achieving fame by defeating Neil Matterson in a three-mile contest on March 28. In less than two months, May 15 of last year, McLean was forced to lower his colors to Peter Kemp, who had twice defeated Hanlan and had beaten Neil Matterson three times. After his defeat by Kemp, McLean rowed his next important race on the 17th of last November, when he defeated Stansbury. McLean fol- lowed up his victory by reversing the tables on Peter Kemp and defeatiug him on Dec, 15. This made McLean champion of the world. Then Stansbury challenged him for the race which took place Nov.17. Stansbury won and was challenged to another match by McLean. That was the race rowed to-day and Stans- bury is still the world’s champion. THE TURF. As the trainer ofa favorite horse that has just been badly beaten walks through the crowd in front of thé grand stand, he will hear himself get a roasting that tears his reputation to tatters, so says Elizazeth Thompson in the New York Press. ‘‘He don’t know a horse from a goat.’’ But aside from all this the trainer’s life isa pleasant one, even though it involves a meas- ure of hard work and endless anxiety. As soon as the races are over in the fall (for those who do not race in winter) the horses are taken to the track or farm, where they are to recuperate and are gradually un- wound, as it were. Their work is lessened by degrees, until they areturned out and asked to do nothing. During the short winter days andthe long winter evenings, while the horses are getting fat and buliding up more bone and sinew and bottling up more speed, the trainer is build- ing up anew hopes that, perhaps, were shat- tered very badly during the summer past. He sits around the stable during the day, and as the boys give each horse a slight rub down he seesin his mind that race horse running as he never ran before, carrying the stable colors to the front and beating triumphant rivals. In the evening the racing cronies gather in some pleasant resort, and famous races of the past are rerun around the stove with all the enthusiasm of the original performance. The coming events are discussed and all the big stakes are fought for and won and, in imagination, settled in advance. During the winter,too,the horses that have met with mishaps are blistered or ‘‘fired’’ or doctored in any way that they require, and hopes run high that they will stund in spite of all. The actual work begins as spring comes on. First comes the exercise of the ‘‘walk- around’’ under shelter. The horse that’s had his legs doctoged is watched. He stands the exercise on the walk-around all right. Allthe horses are taken out and trotted. Everything goes well. Then they are gal- loped. Still all goes well. They are galloped as fast as a two-minute gate and are brought in to every appearance sound and well. **Racing is pretty good business after all. It isn’t so easy to break a horse down. I guess I’ll leave him in a few stakes and see what he can do for me. That's what the sanguine trainer says. Then the horses are pushed a little faster than a two-minute gate. A bit of fever in the leg, dear me, the trainer says. It means ban- dages and cooling lotions and sleepless nights for the horse and himself. Still a wee bit faster go the trials. down. Itis an awful verdict. Just my luck, says the trainer. I wish the brute was in Halifax, and I was there, too. But the yearlings; they are the joy of a trainer’s Ute. »The young rascals usually promise so well, There are so many wonder- ful trials during the fall that as confidences are interchanged one is ready to believe the woods are full of world-beaters. As spring comes on, and something like real racing is required of them, counterfeits show up here and there, and promising stake horse dwindl away to selling - platers. ' The opening of the racing season is marked by quick packing in stable and kitchen. At the tracks are heard the sounds of hammer and saw; plows and barrows are busy; horses arrive from every point of the country, and stable-boys are filled with glee and deviltry by the general commotion and at meeting old friends. N The trainer fixes up his quarters in the box adjoining the pride of the stable, and makes it look like a bower with the pretty things the women folks at home have stuffed in his trunks, The boys decorate the stalis of their favorite horses with play-bills, advertising cards and lithographs of actors and actresses. The cook sets out his dishes and pots and pans, and almost covers the kitchen walls with highly colored pictures, generally of fair burlesquers. To be sure all these things have to be taken down and moved and put up again every few weeks, but it is done with never a thought that it is any trouble. A trainer hasa man and a boy for every two horses and when the number of horses run from five to forty the population on the far side of the back-stretch is no small one. Broken boy, rubber or exercise lad behaves badly he *‘draws’’ bim as punishment, that is, he makes him go without his meals till he shows signs of contrition, whichis generally after he has m one of those meals. Duri leisure hours the trainers gather in an empt feed room or some one’s quarters and in- | dulge in a game of poker, while the darkies and small boys generally gather round ‘the corner in a shady place and ‘‘shoot craps.’’ Tho afternoon in the season is given over to sport, which still is sport to the man whohas seen a thousand contests of speed and mettle, The trainer isa monarch in his stable.

Asthe date for the Bob Fitsimmons-Jim Hall match draws near there isa little more talk about it, but not nearly so much as there should be over an affair of the kind, says the New York Sun. Here are two middle weights —although they fight at 156 pounds, two pounds above the limit this time—who are said to be very evenly matched, one of whom defeated the pride of American pugilism, Jack Dempsey. They are presumably the two best men in the class now boxing, and an enormous purse has been hung up for them; yet the interest in the event is no greater than would be seeninthe anticipation of a scrap between third or fourth rate men fora $200 purse. The reason is plain. Everybody knows that Hall, by his own confession, laid down’’ for Fitzsimmons in Australia, and the repu- tation that goes with @ performance of that kind is bound to make sporting men wary of every fight that ever takes place thereafter between the same men. Much has been pub- lished about recent quarrels these men have had. So great is the present enmity between them, it is said, that on more than one occa- sion they have been barely prevented from coming to blows in public. In fact, the **personal ehmity’’ racket has been played like sixty, and the advertising in that line been so free that the sports are rather in- clined to Believe that it has been overdone, At any rate, there is not much confidence in the East, at least, in the sincerity of the men. Should Fitesimmons win he will get very little credit, gor everybody will say the pro- was ged to end that way, as it was in Australia. If the verdict goes to Hall, his victory will be viewed with suspicion, too, unless the capable judges—the real old-timers ho see the mill are unanimous, or nearly sO, in pronouncing the battle to have been one of undoubted and severe punishment. If there is not plenty of smashing that is and a simon pure knockout, most will say, „ backers the best exhibition that lay within his skin. There are half a dozen men who will bet even money that McCarthy can put George Dixon to sleepintwelve rounds if skin gloves are used in the contest. BASE BALL. St. Louis took a long stride forward in the championsh'p race yesterday, the Browns winning from the Athletics, while the Bos- tons lost to Columbus. Another occurrence of that kind will place the Browns in the lead. Asitis they are now a very good sec- ond, and if they can come back home in as good a position as they now occupy they will have a splendid chance to win. It is not likely, however, that they will be able to remain so close to Boston, par- ticularly if the latter teamis governed by Hardy Richardson, who has been laid up so long witha broken leg. His loss has been strongly felt by the Bostonians, both in bat- ting and fielding. Baltimore is third in the race but the Browns have them at a safe dis- tance providing the St. Louis Club keeps put- ting up as good a game as it has so far this season. Only a toboggan slide mishap on their part will enable Baltimore to pass them. The race is practically between St. Louis and Boston now, and the finish in all probability will be between those two clubs. The New York Giants lost a brilliant opportunity yesterday to Increase their lead in the National League race. Chicago, whom the Giants recently deposed from the lead, lost for the third consecutive time to Brook- lyn, but New York let its golden opportunity slip by dropping a game to Cincinnati. The League fight is a close one and New York, Chicago and Boston are all in it very strong yet. Boston is playing good ball and yesterday took its third con- secutive game from Pittsburg. New York has lost three games less than Chicago, but has also won one less. Chicago has won one game more and lost one less than Boston, so that a victory for the latter and a defeat for Anson’s colts would make thema tie in the race—a thing which may occurin one day’s play. Boston has a very strong team and the fight should really be between them and the New Yorks. Chicago’s pitchers have been wonderfully successfuland that is what has kept Anson’s colts so well to the front. * * * The New Yorks have more veterans than any teamin the country, says the Sporting Times. O' Rourke has been in the harness since 72; Tim Keefe broke loose in 78, 79; Jack Glasscock came out of the wilder ness in 77; Roger Connor shifted from right to left-handed batting in ’78, when he landed in Holyoke; Buck Ewing bid farewell to Brick Bottoms in 1880, when he joined the Hop Bitters of Rochester, and Jerry Denny (recently released) started in with Provi- dence in 1881. Bassett, Richardson and Tier- nan have been playing for the past eight years, and Manager Mutrie was a profes- sional in 1875. * * — There is no truth whatever in the report that Buck Ewing had his lame arm ‘‘fired’’ by the same process used on horses that have sprained a tendon, says the Cincinnati Enquirer. There was some talk of the ex- periment being tried on Ewing, but he con- cluded not to risk it. A prominent member of the New Yorks said last night: ‘‘There was a big story sent out about Buck’s arm being fired, and there is nothing in it. Buck’s arm is getting better every day. He can get them down to second bow as swift as he ever couid, but he has to take his own time. He can not make swift snap shots like he used to; that is his only trouble. YESTERDAY’S GAMES. St. Louis won at Philadelphia yesterday by out-flelding the Athletics. The score was 7 to 4 in favor of the Browns. Paul Cook, the catcher recently released by Louisville, was signed by St. Louis in the morning and caught McGill in the afternoon game. Cook played brilliantly. Sanders and Milligan were the Athletics’ battery, Each side made 9 hits, but the Athletics gave a miserable exhibition of fielding and were charged with five errors agaiast 1 made by St. Louis.
