In such cases the United States has never sought words of little weight or ambiguous meaning in order to make reparation, but have con- demned such actsin vigorous and energetic terms, and have never refused to give other adequate satisfaction. The honorable Sec- retary of State, Mr. Blaine, states’ moreover that it is not his intention to disouss the de- tails of the incident of October, but only to set forth the conclusions at which his Gov- ernment has arrived. The honorable {Secre- tary of State says: We have given every kind of opportunity to the Government of Chili to offer explanatory or extenu- ating circumstances, and we have given due consia- eration to the fact that the Government of Chill. during a great part of the time which has elapsed since the 16th of October, has been in a provisional situation. 5 He then adds that he is Girected by his Ex- cellency, Mr. Harrison, to say that he has been compelled to take notice of the instruc- tions sent by Mr. Matta, Mmister of Foreign Affairs, to the Chilian Minister at Washing- ton, under date of Dec. 11, because, although they were not officially communicated to his Government, they received the greatest pos- sible publicity, and that consequently he de- mands the immediate withdrawal of the said instructions as to those parts which he con- siders offensive, and adequate satisfaction, in order that the diplomatic relations be- tween the two nations may not be inter- rupted. Without any intention of opening a discus- sion as to the facts referred to by the com- munication, which I have extracted, and confining myself to the first part of the in- structions of the honorable Secretary of State, the undersigned must state to your Excellency the regret with which the Gov- ernment of Chili sees that His Excellency, the President of the United States, finds reason to continue to regard the incident of October as an attack capsed by a hostile feel- ing toward the uniform of the Navy of the United States. That unfortunate occurrence took place ona sudden, in a district where the sailors of the vessels lying in the Bay of Valparaiso are in the habit of assembling, without distinction of nationality. From the nature of the incident it would be impossible to prove that there was no doubt as to the special cause which served as its origin or pretext, but the undersigned can assert that that cause was not a hostile feel- ing towards the uniform of the navy of the United States, because the people of Chill have always esteemed and respected that uniform ever since the time when it saw it Oguring honorably in the ranks of the soldiers and sailors who, ina glorious strug- gie, gave it independence and established the republic. The undersigned admits that the occurrence of Oct. 16 was of greater grav- ity than those which usually occur in the same district among the sallors who frequent it, and the fact of knowing that two deaths have resulted from it among the sixteen wounded men of the Baltimore, has sufficed to give it an extraordinary char- acter, and to induce the Government of Chill to hasten to adopt the measures neces- sary to discover and punish the guilty parties and to offer in due time, if there should be ground Sor so doing, such reparation as might be due. The preliminary action was commenced on tbe morning which followed the night of the con- filct, some days before you presented your complaint, but the investigation could not be finished with the rapidity that the Govern- ment of Chill desired, because the rulesof procedure in criminal matters which are established by our laws are of slow applica- tion, and it was not possible for the Presi- dent of the republic to modify or set them aside.

C., Jan. 2.—The follow- ing is the full text of Senor Pereira’s note to Secretary Blaine, in answer to the ultimatum of the United States Government transmitted to Chilfon the Aist inst. It was received at the State Department in Washington at 9a. m. Jan. 26, transmitted through Minister Evan SANTIAGO, Jan. 25, 1892. To Blaine, Washington: | have to-day received the following reply tomy note of the 22d inst. he undersigned has had the honor to receive your Excellency’s. communication Cated 224 inst., received in this department the 24d, and tne duly authenticated copies of the instractions which the honorable Secre- tary of State of Washington has sent to your hLxcellency by cable under dates of the 2ist inst. and the 284 of October, 1891. In the in- Structions of the 2ist inst. the honorable Sec- retary of State informs your Excellency that his Excellency, Mr. Harrison, after carefully examining all that bas been submitted to him by the Government of Chili with respect to the event which occurred in Valparaiso on the evening of the 16th of October, and taking into consideration the ‘testimony of the ofmicers and crew of the vessel, the Baltimore, and of others who witnessed the event, has arrived at the following conclusions: : Firet, That with regard to that asrault there has been no change whatever made tn the character giventoitby the fret report of the event, to-wit, that it was an attack upon the aniform of the Navy of the United states, which had its origin and motive inafeecling of hostility towards that Government and pot on any account Of the individua! sailors be- honging to it, Second, That the public euthorities of Valparaiso evidently did not de their duty in protecting those lors, and that a part of the police and some CRilian soldiers and gallors rendered themselves guilty of unprovoked assaults on the sailors of the United states before and after the latter were arrested, and that be believes that Riggin was Killed by the police Cr the soldiers; end, Third, That he igconseqneptly compelled to carry „ question back to the state in which it was placed the note of the Hon.

Govern- ment that the case be submitted to the con- sideration of the Supreme Court of Justice at Washington, tribunal, with its learning and impartiality, may determine, there is any ground for reparation and in what shape it should be made. The undersigned would remind you, referring tothe conduct of the Valparaiso authorities, that it appears from the preliminary examination that they sent without delay tothe sceneof the con- flict all the forces at their disposal belong - ing to the special guard of the Intendencia and Nicholis, ham, Hodge, ing to the crew of the Baltimore, stated to the interpreter of that vessel that the object ot the police in arresting them was to shelter them from any attempt at attack by the ex- cited people. the action of the police in this matter should be considered a due allowance forthe civil war which had recently been brought to a properly organized, nor did it have the force that was required to put down a disorder of such proportions in a short time. and showing the sincerity feeling and the confidence he has in the justice of deciares his willingness not way of his to the end that that high without appeal, whether Swanson, Honies, Talbot, etc., seamen Cose, Cunnig- Hallard, belong police. Darony. Williams, Butler, to the The undersigned thinks that close. The body was not yet In this connection it is proper to recall the words used by the honorable Secretary of State at Washington in his note addressed to the Marquis Imperiali, and bearing date of May 21, 1891: There is no Government, however civilized it may be, however great may be the vigtiance displayed by the police, and however severe ite criminal be and however speedy and inflexibie may be its a- ministration of justice, that can guarantee its ows citizens against malice or & code may violence growing out of individnal sudden popular tumult. - This was precisely the situation of the ad- at Valparaiso on —— these sentiments before now, since on vari- ous Occasions, and through the plenipotenti- aries of both countries,he has forwarded explicit declarations on the subject ot Wash- ington. The undersigned takes the liberty to recall the fact that, five days after he had taken charge of the Department of Foreign Relations, he addressed tothe Minister of Chili in the United States a telegram which, in the part relating to this matter says: Express to the United States Government what has already been stated, adding all the data that is known, in the most correct and amicable form; ex- press to the United States Government very sincere regret on account of this unfortunate incident, which, although not strafigein the ports of the world, this Government doubly laments, owing to its sincere desire to cultivate friendship with the United States. If the United States Government should not accept the foregoing explanation as satis- factory, notwithstanding that the judicial authorities hold the guilty parties respon- sible for the disorder of Oct. 16, the unaer- signed must recall the circumstance that the Government of ohn, through the medium of its Minister in Wash- ington, has expressed the desire to submit any misunderstanding (dispute) to decision by arbitration by any power or tribunal which may be indicated to it; and, in fact, arbitration was suggested in confer- ence with the Ministerof Onili in Washing- ton on the 80th of December, when the Gov- ernment of the undersigned declared its good will and its resolve to accept arbitra- tion afterthe final judgment which would not be farther delayed many days, in further- ance of its purpose to give a speedy solution to the incident in most friendly terms. The Government of the undersigned called upon its Minister for a definite reply on the lith inst., and on the 13th Minister Montt reported, that notwithstanding certain ob- servations made by the American State De- partment with respect to the opportuneness of resorting to arbitration, he had neverthe- less agreed with the Hon. Mr. Blaine that, if ‘any divergence of views or disaccord should supervene after the verdict cf the judge at Valparaiso, such controversy would yield to arbitration. The undersigned hastened todeclare that he would fully accept such an agreement; for which reason the Government of Chili deems that the case has arisen for submitting to arbitration, in terms as ample as those above indicated, any difference of views which it may have with the Government of the United States concerning the incident of the Balti- more. There is therefore submitted to the Honor- able Secretary of State of the Department of Foreign Relations of Washington the desig- nation of either the Supreme Court of Justice of the United States ora tribunal of arbitra- tion to determine the reparation which Chili may have to make for that lamentable oecurrence. As for the dispatch addressed under date of the llth of December tothe Chilian Minister in Washington by the Minister of Foreign Relations of the Provisional Government, the undersigned submits that there could not be on the part ofthe Government of Chill, the purpose to inflict any offense upon the Government of the United States, with which it desires ever to eultivate’ the most friendly relations. Consequentiy the under- signed deplores that in the telegram there were employed through ap error of judg- ment the expressions which are offensive in the judgment of your Government, declar- ing, in fulfillment of a high duty of courtesy and sincerity towarda friendly nation, that the Government of Chill absolutely with- draws the said expressions. The undersigned trusts that this frank and explicit declaration which confirms that which has already been made to the Honor- able Secretary of State in Washington will carry to the mind of His Excellency, Mr. Harrison, ofhis Government that the people of Chill, far from entertaining a feeling of hostility, has the lively desire to maintain the good and cordial relations which up to the present time exist between the two countries —a deciaration which is made without reser- vation in order that it may receive such pub- licity as your government may deem suit. able. With regard tothe suggestion made touching the change of the personnel of your Legation, to which the _ instruc- tions of the honorable Secretary of State refer, It is incumbent upon the un- dersigned to declare that the Government of Chill will take no positive step without the accord of the Government of the United States with which it desires to maintain it self in friendly understanding. The undersigned brings this already long communication to a close in the assurance that he has therein set forth everything that can fully satisfy your Government. The Government of Chili cherishes the conviction that the relations with the Government of the United States should be sin- cerely and cordially maintained under the shelter of that mutual respect and that good understanding which are based upon the just and equitable appreciation of the facts and on the appreciation to be given to the spontaneous declarations made on either side. The undersigned moreover declares that in presenting its expilana- tion his government finds its inspira- tion in the words of the instructions which you have quoted, and which assure the Gov- ernment of Chili that the President is ‘not disposed to exact or ask anything which your Government would not under the same circumstances spontaneously concede. With sentiments of distinguished con- sideration, I am your obedient servant. LUIS PEREIRA. Nore—The words prented & 2 in the above Oficial note are emp y the Post-Dis- PATCH.) ADDITIONAL OO RRESPONDENCE, MIXIGTER MONTT’S NOTE TO BLAINE AND THE SECRETARY'S RESPONSE. WashinoTor, D. C., Jan. 2.—The following correspondence has taken place since the issuance of the ultimatum of the United States on the 2ist Inst. and in connection with Chili’s reply thereto, accompanied the Presi- Gent’s message to Congressto-day. The first note is from Chilian Minister Montt to Mr. Biaine: LEGATION OF CHILI, WaASHINGTOSX, D. C., Jan. 28, 1992. Sirm—i bave had the honor to receive your note of yesterday as an inclosure which you were pleased to transmit with the instruc- tons gent to Mr. Egan on the day previous. In the numerous conferences with which you have been pleased to favor me, I nave informed youthat immediately after the oc- currence of the events of Oct. 15 at Valpar- also, Which my government most sincerely deplored ,the judicial authorities initiated the investigation necessary to throw light upon the disorder of Oct. 16 Of Chili was able to collect at the very outset, drunken sailors that the police performed their duty pe uill Govern authorizing it to think that the quarrel was distinction of the uniform of the the police failed ~ duty. On the contrary well-demonstrated fact that sallors get excited when they go ashore after having been on board of their vesseis for a longtime. This is also quite natural. The intoxication of seamen and the disorders to which it gives rise, although thy may assume serious proportions occasion- ing every lamentabie ense, as was un- fortunately the case at Valparaiso on the 16th of October, cannot constitute an insult to the nation in whose service are the men who have taken part in the disorder, although they certainly do not justify the offenses committed during the dlis- orders. The ernment of Chilt could not, however, form a final opinion con- cerning the nature of the occurrence in ques- tion or as to whether the police had or had not improper rticipated therein, or had failed to orm its duty until the termination of the judicial investigation which had been Initiated without delay and which was pushed forward as speedily as patible with the provisions of the law, with the obligation of col- lecting all the elements of proof that it was 2 e to collect in order to throw full ight upon the matter and with the neces- sity of promptly punishing the per- petrators of the Offenses which had been committed and which had been in part suffered by persons tn the service of a friend- ly nation. It was the desire and the duty of the Government Of Chili to discover the truth, in order to make its future proceedings conform thereto and in order that the United States Government might be satisfied that nothing was ne ed in order to do full justice, You were pleased with your high sense of rectitude to remark to methat this proceeding of the Government of Chill was correct, and although you. desired the judl- cial investigation might de brought to a close with as little delay as possible, you under- stood that it was necessary that the ordinary proceedings (which were not as rapid in Chili as in the United States) should be held. I have taked occasion at r times to inform you of what the Chilian authorities were doing to bring the insubordination to a close. In thecrim- mal trial held at Valparaiso not only have landsmen been heard, but also the seamen ofthe Baltimore; but have been confronted with each other, the reports of physicians and experts have been called for, the opin- ion of the surgeon of the cruiser has likewise been invoked and in a word nothing has been neglected that could tend to bring the whole truth to lignt. The seamen of the Baltimore made their statements with the as- an interpreter desi- themselves, who was an officer of the cruiserso that the oath taken by the witnesses, their confrontation with each other, the reports of the experts con- cerning the cause and mature of the wounds and the hearing granting both Chilians and Americans so that all might present the complaints and charges and be heard in their own justification, give incontestabie authority to the trial held at Valparaiso. -In the course of our conference we sometimes considered the case in which the Government of the United States and that of Chill should fall to agree when the investigation should be terminated and the two governments should have formed their final Opinion and wé agree that arbitration was the best means of settling the difficulty and advancing farther in this conciliatory spirit, we even formally agreed that the differences that might arise should be submitted to arbitration; this r to accept arbitration has been the is of sev- eral of our conferences, and especially that of the 18th inst., and no antecedent or fact. m- terfering therewith has come to my know!l- edge. On the contrary, I took occasion to.in- form you on the ist_of uary ieee my Government authorize t ud ah agree- ment looking to arbitration, and my Govern- ment subsequently approved the agreement concurred by me with you of which I also in- formed you. As the criminal trial initiated at Valparaiso has not yet come to an end, my Government has not et been able to reply to the demands made by that of the United States. The various documents and antecedents to which Ihave called your attention in my foregoing communication sent were designated to inform the United States of the progress of the ju- dicial Investigation and of the facts thereby elicited ; they no not. however, constitute a reply whicn can only be given when the facts are definitely brought to light by the sentence which must be pronounced by the courts. The testimony which the Government of the United States has caused to be taken in California from the crew of the Baltimore cannot take the place of the trial which is deing held at Valparaiso, where the offenses were committed. Thistestimony may be useful for disciplinary or administrative purposes in the United States, but it cannot serve as the basis of a judicial sentence either in Chill or in the United States. The copy which 1 have to-day the honor to send you of the statement made by one of the seamen of the Baltimore at Val- paraiso shows that that seaman made no charge against the police. The charges which he makes here in the absence of the accused parties in contradiction of his first statement, can have no value either in law or in your enlightened opinion. It is to be observed moreover that the statement made by this seaman at Valparaiso is attested by the judge, by the signature of the seaman himself, and by that of the interpreter, who was an officer of the Baltimore, who had been appointed for the express purpose of inspiring the desponents with confidence. You were pleasedtostate in your instruc- tions to Mr. Egan that the undersigned has not communicated to the United States Gov- ernment the note that was addressed to him by Mr. Matta on the 18th of December last. The first time that the Honorable Secretary of State saw fit to call my attention to the affair, said note of Mr. Matta I told him that that note contain instructions addressed to me by Mr: Matta and that as Ihad not been directed to com- municate it officially to the Department of State there was no reason why the Honorable Secretary should take cognizance of it. I further reminded you that it was a doctrine acknowledged by the American Govern- ment that documents exchangea between the President and Congress or between the De- partment of State and the diplomatic repre- sentatives of the United States in could not form discussion for foreign governments. I also took the liberty to remind you of the illustrious Webster and representative of Austria in 1850. The Austrian Government complained at that time because It considered the in- structions sent to a representative of the United States unjust or disrespectful. to Aus- tria, the said instructions Raving been pub- lished ina message Of the President, who sent it to tue Senate. This department, said Mr. Webster, has on former occasions informed the ministers of foreign ‘powers thata communication from the President to either house «= pO 'r1gress is regarded as a domesti Mication of which ordinarily no fort ae has cogni- zancé and in more recet the 4 shown.’’ The circumstance publicity does not change the character of a communication in the opinion of Mr. Webster, the common usual mode o the great im- not me word was improper and objection: eclaration on your part, which was as impartial as it was just, terminated the incident. Since the early port of the th of Octo- ber when I had t honor to invited to un al conferences with the representa - tives of the Department of Stote (as the cred- a 8 me as Minister of a not 982 to the United states Government that if the representative of the United States at San- tiago was not a persona ta tothe Govern- ment of Chili it was sufficient for the Gov- ernment of Chili so to state and that the said representative would be suc- ceeded by another.

You were pleased to acknowl- edge that the Government of Chili had a right to ask that a change should be made afterwards having your notice, I addressed to you in writing the same communication which I made to you verbally. PF have deemed it my duty to state in this note the foregoing facts which show the friendly and cordial of our conferences, in which you a most im- portant part. With sentiments, etc. PEDRO MONTT. Hon. James . Blame, etc., etc. BLAINE TO MONTT. WaSHINGron, D. C., Jan. . — The follow- ing is from Secretary Blaine to Minister Montt: DEPARTMENT OF STATE WASHINGTON, Jan. 2, 1892. Str: I have the honor to acknowledge your favor, dated the 23d inst., but not received by me until Monday, the 25th. I beg to com- ment on two or three of its recitals. I think fromthe zeal for your country you have made some mistakes, which Ishall proceed to correct. ; You are rigut in saying that I considered the proceedings of the Government of Chili in making judicial investigaton of the un- happy affair at Valparaiso en- tirely praiseworthy. But you will remember that as early as November I complained of the length of the judicial proceedings, and from time to time renewed the complaint, saying to you very lately that the court had already been eighty days in session considering a matter. (which in the United States woul d have been wholly disposed of in two or three weeks. You replied that the Spanish law was slowin its processes, but exact in its conclusions, and with your statements Ihadtobe content, though im- patient for a final judgment. Your offerof arbitration was never uncon- ditional and exact, Had it been I would have insisted on your reducing it to writ- ing, for it would have been my duty to lay it before the President for consideration, But I was unable to report a mere verbalexechange of views be- tween us of an agreement to arbditrate. You did say to me several times that in the dis- tant future when the Chillan court should render its judgment United States should .not - fied with it) the two countries could art trate the matter, and even then you always maintained that Chili would not voluntarily propose arbitration herself, but would do so when requested by some friendly power to take that course. On one oceasion you mentioned Spain as a nation IIKel intervene with Chili most effectively. mention of arbitration was always method to be adopted in the future, if we were not content, as I have said, with the judgment of h court. You remarked that t it , before, would be discrediting the judgment of the court in advance. You always looked to the future for the properacceptance of arbitra- tion. You say in your note: I took occasion to inform — on the Ist of January than my Government authorized an agreement looking to arbitration, and my Government eubse- quently approved the agreement concluded by me. And yet you do not pretend that a word was ever written of the agreement which you say we made between us. It is impossible that I ever sought to bind the Government of the United States in that way. It would have been in the highest degree imprudent jor me to do so. In regard to the Matta note, which was subject of contention between us, you sum it up by the following declaration: I added, however, that ft was far from being the purpose of my Government to act ina manner at all offensive to the President of the United States or to any member of his Cabimzet and that Mr.Matta’s note. if rightly en ae admitted of construction. afterward had or to inform you that I received instructions from my government to inform that of the United States that considering the views of the Presidents by Messrs.

I cer- tainly could not pt your language and never did accept guage ofthat kind as an apology sufficient for the case. The Matta note was highly discourteous to the President and the Secretary of the Navy, imputing to them untruth and insincerity. Such lan- guage does not admit of conditional or con- tingent apology, for which u offered. could be apo ized for withdrawal.

BCORING HARRISON, CLAIMING HE KNEW THE TENOR OF CHILI'S REPLY WHEN THE MESSAGE WAS SENT IN, LONDON, Jan. 2%.—Several of the English papers to-day print a dispatch from Wash- ington, th which it is asserted that President Harrison yesterday informed the Sepate Committee on Foreign Relations that the an- swer of Chili to the ultimatum sent heron the 2igt inst. was received before his mes- sage was sent to Congress, but that he was not aware of the contents owing, to the fact that it was not translated into English unt after the message had been delivered to Con- gress. Basing its comments upon this assertion the St. James Gazette this afternoon publishes an article in Which it says: If the econ true, President Harrison is disgraced; has made himself ridiculous.. The sony . mes given as gossip, but as the réport of t - cial proceedings of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. Such a paltry trick is in- concelVable.’’ . The Times to-day publishesa dispatch from its correspondent at Santiago de Chill, say- ing that, in rephy to suggestions Chin ex- pressed her willingness to have either Spain or Brazil act as a mediator in her differences with the United States, but that public opinion is in favor of submitting the ques- tions to the arbitration of the Supreme Court of the United states. The correspondent further says that the Ohilian Government is receiving messages of sympathy from all parts of South America and the United States. He adds that Ameri- can residents residing tn Santiago publicly demand the canceling of the exequator of Mr. Mm. B. McCreery, the Consul of the United States at Valparaiso.

THE PEOPLE ANXIOUS TO LEARN THE OUTCOME OF THE NEGOTIATIONS. SANTIAGO, Chill, Jan. 28.—Intense anxiety is felt in this city as to the reply of the United States to the note sent by Minister of Forelgn Affairs Periera relative to the ultimatum. For | » the last twenty-four hours nothing else has been discussed in the streets, in the cafes—in fact, in all the public places. The papers which favored Balcameda and the supporters of the late Dictator generally are crowing over the manner in which this matter has been handled by the present gov ernment and are doing all they can to inflame the people. In Valparaiso the matter is being discussed with more calmness. he merchants and bankers there generally believe that a peace- ful settlement of pending difficulties between the United States and Chili will surely be reached. ee are arriving hourly from ee and ali the provinces north and south to the papers in Santiago and Mh ry asking if the question has been settled.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—It is suggested on every hand in the Navy Department that gven if Chili has made an ample apology and if our Congress should decide on that account to refrain from further war-like proceedings, it would be nevertheless highly desirable to carry out the idea of making an imposing naval display in Chilian waters, and this will probably be the policy of the department. It is to be expected, therefore, that a large fieet ot our war vessels will son visit Val- iso and other Chilian ports. It is believed in the department that it would be of practical advantage tothis ceun- try to give the Chilfans an impressive object lesson, and that the expense attending it would be as nothing in comparison, and es- pecially as many ofthe vessels have started on the trip and others have about completed rations for starting. yacegs the fo 2 2 save been ee off there is n nga a Departmen fact.

By ay the plaza is lined with baratillos or small retail booths, much patronized by the inhabitants. city is ordered. The shops are small and not remarkable for the variety or quality of the goods they contain. But Santiago 1s nota 1 — ary. 4 tour ars a express, is the great sea an — center of the nation, the New York of Ohili. Santiago is the city of homes and society, the social and governmental head of ‘the nation. There are numerous street car lines in the city, and blooming half-breed girls act as car conductors. It is a singular custom, seen nowhere else in South America. Many of the half-breeds are handsome, and the women, when young, are plump and rosy. The bright-eyed conductors seldom re- tain their places long. When one becomes a conductor she might as well order her trous- é6eau and be done with it. Valparaiso, the port and business center of Chili, on the west slope of the Oordilleras de la Costa, is very different from Santiago. it is essentially an English city. It is large, of no particular beauty, and with something of a cosmopolitan air. It has clubs and a large English population. Germans, too, are very numerous. great deal of wealth is centered in the town and Invested in its enterprises and business projects. English is spoken everywhere. One can hardly get along with- out it in Valparaiso. For that matter, English is well understoed throughout the coun- try. The time was when Paris was the city upon which all eyes were fixed. Paris is yet the Chilian’s ideal in matters of dress and art, but London is all else to Chill, and it may be said that it is a nation of Anglo- maniacs, although there is not any aping of the English toa perceptible degree. The re- lationship is 4 business origin, and it came about from English influence making itself felt through the medium of financial channels. English is taught in the schools, and when children are old enough to go abroad they are taken to London. t course they visit Paris, too. Social life is more formalin Chili than with us. Society distinctions are drawn more defi- nitely. The great families of the nation hve a in a small world ot their on. Family ts for much. The chief social functions are the dinner and the reception. Even in the middle classes there is not that joyous freedom of social intercourse which we know. The young man who falis in tove must content with unsatisfactory tete-a-tetes in crowded ballrooms. He must apply to the ri’s parents and obtain rmission to ad- ress the daughter before he is granted any additional liberties. Lovers are never permit- ted to be alone until they have been married. Among the peons social lines are as noticea- loose. Marriage is dispensed with in perhaps a majority of cases. Men and wom- en live 4 — as fancy prompts. But the sturdy half-breeds are honest fellows, with strong affections, and the family relation in most instances holds as firmly as a contract. Uhilian women of the upper class exhaust the vocabularies of travelers.

C., Jan. 28.—There is an almost unanimous expression of satisfaction among Senators and representatives in Con- gress over the peaceable ending of the threatening hostilities with Chill, Congressmen generally,irrespective of par- ty, commend the course of President Harri- son and Secretary Blaine, and treat the mat- ter as a settled thing. Everywhere are heard expressions that the controversy has been productive of good results in showing the unity of the American people where the honor and dignity of the flag and the pro- tection of American citizens is concerned, and the words of the Presidentin his message of to-day, referring tothe patriotic feeling de- veloped through the incident, are ,warmly indorsed. ; A few Congressmen, however, while be- lieving tnat all danger of war has passed, are not inclined to give credit to the administra- tion forits conduct of the affairs. An in- stance of the feeling is displayed in the words of Representative Breckenridge of Kentucky, who introduced the resolution inthe House Tuesday, to request of the President addi- tional information concerning the Chilian matter, basing the contents of his measure on the report that the Pres- dent had received an intimation, if not a direct avowal, from the Chilian Goverdment that it would makea suitable retgaction and explanation, Speak- ing of the ‘message and additional corre- spondence in the incident sent to Con- gress to-day, Mr. Breckenridge said toa reporter that he thought the message and correspondence received Monday should never have been. sent to Congress. The rresident,’’ said he, knew previous to sending the correspondence to Congress that Chill intended to make some satisfactory r or suitable apology, and I think he has not treated the country or this Congress fairly in the matter. Mr. Blount of Georgia said he did not care to make any comments on the additional and correspondence at this his esterday nterview mination of Per- haps as good an indication as any of the way Congressmen look upon the peaceful ending can be learned from the maaner in which the House treated the read- ing of the correspondence. A majority of the members, Democrats and Repub- licans, united in applause and nodded heads at another with —— expressions of **That’s good, very satisfactory,’’ and there will be no war. **What do I think of it?“ said Mr. Hitt of Illinois, ex-Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, repeating a asked him by headinthe direction of the chamber of the House, where the members were expressing their satisfaction in applause. ‘‘Is not that enougp?’* — Mr. McCreary, Democrat and another ex. chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, expressed himself as much pleased with the peaceable termination of the threatened trouble. He thought the country had caused to congratulate itself on such an honorable ending. pre- sentative Lodge of Massachusetts, ho is somewhat familiar with our foreign affairs, said he thought the matter had been settled in a way very honorable to our country. The firm attitude of the President he , had resuiteq in the peaceable settle“ ment of an affairthat might have brought war, sOmething he believed would be deplor- able and very much to be regretted.

EVIDENCE THAT THE YOUNG WIFE WAS KILLED BY DRUGS. Dr. N. H. Thompson’s Answer to a Hypo- thetical Question—What the Husband Has Admitted—Miss Scofield’s Affida- vit Ruled Out—Residu from the Wo- man’s Stomach Tested. New YorK, Jan. 28.—The Harris trial was chiefly given up to-day to the testimony of a technical nature on the analysis of Helen Potts’ stomach. Prof. Witthausof the Uni- versity of the City of New York was on the stand. He described the analysis of the stomach and how he had found traces of morphine, but none of quinine. The strong- est technical testimony so far in the case is in favor of the prosecution. With defendarit’s counsel sat a number of expert chemists, who watched the testimony in Harris’ interest. Dr. Allan Hamilton was the first witness cross-examined. He said he was ready to swear that the girl did not die of any affec- tion of the organs of the heart, brain or liver, He declared his belief that the girl died of narcotic poisoning. Prof. Witthaus is a short man with sandy side whiskers and a mustache. He isa fluent talker. For two hours and a half he held the jury. In the stomach he had found traces of chloride of morphine, The a mount he estimated at six one-thousanths of a grain. He injected the residue into a live frog, which went into a state of half insensibility for an hour or two and then decame normal again. In the intestines he found no quinine traces, but tests revealed morphine. Experiments with this residue on frogs produced a similar result as in the first case. Summed up, he told the jury ne had found in the stomach no quinine, but had found morphine. ä a Subsequently Harris’ counsel, Jerome, eross examined Witthaus, Witness said that after completing the analysis Drs. Field, Northrup and Biggs interest of authority from the District Attorney to examine the organs. After they left the witness missed the valves of the heart. He was not ready to swear the visitors had taken them, but had his opinion.

This Coposicion was taken in December by order of Judge Van Brunt of the Supreme Court, when Miss Scho. — was thought tobe dying of spinal dis- e. Harris’ counsel to-day announced they would oppose the introduction of such a depo- sition, on the ground that Judge Van Brunt had no jurisdiction to issue the order, and that the girlis now able to appear. Miss Schofield’s physician was the first witness to- ony: He said she was too Ill to appear at the DR. GEORGE R.

If brought out the fact that Harris had performed an oper- ation upon his young wife which almost re- sultedin her death. But perhaps the fact that the mother suspected the young man of causing her daughter's death most affected those who heard it. She was the last woman in the world to harbor such a suspicion un- less it were inevitably forced upon her. The testimony of Dr. Treverton showed how cold-blooded the young man 18. In his testi- mony was the first of a series of statements from different witnesses that Harris of his success with women, saying they could not resist him. Not the least important was tre testimony of Dr. Treverton and Dr. Hand that they had given Helen Potts considerable uantities of morphine while they were treat- g her in Scranton. In the cross-examina- tion of Dr. Fowler the defense sought to es- tablish the fact that Helen Potts had what is known in medicine as an idiosyncrasy, which Posse make a medicinal dose of morphine @ testimony of Drug Clerk Power estab- lished the fact that there was no mistake in putting upthe prescription. The testimo of Dr. Weston showed that Harris insti- ted the report that Miss Potts died of heart isease. It also showed that he seemed little affected and that he had the pills in his 8 session thirty-six hours. The story of Har- ris’s relations with Queenie Drew at Canan- daigua under an assumed name and the boasts he made to Latham there were effec- tiveonly in showing the character of the man. The 87 Oliver, Miss Potts’ cousin, who talked with Harris in Scranton when the young medical student went thereto see his wife, was of the greatest importance. It tended to show that Harris’ principal object n life was to conquer women, and if he fatled 1 all other means he was willing to marry secretly.

AN IMPORTANT MEETING HELD AT THE SHERMAN HOUSE. Members of the Executive Committee Meet and Formulate Plans forthe Fut- ure—A Number of Prominent Third Party Leaders ‘Present—Washburn of Massachusetts on the Situation. Cuicaco, III., Jan. 28.—The conference of the People’s Party representatives which opened yesterday, continued to-day. The object was to discuss the situation witha view to formulating plans for the future. II. k. Taubeneck of Marshall, III., and G. r Washburn of Boston, Eastern member of the National Executive Committee of the People’s Party, registered atthe Sherman yesterday. Gen. Weaver of lowa, and Igna- tius Donnelly of Minnesota arrived. Miss ryraneis Willard of this city, will also be pres- entat the meeting. We desire that representatives of the va- rious reform elements of this country should come together and exchange ideas, said Mr. Washburn. Both of the old parties are in a hole from which it will be difficult for them to escape. We'simply wish to meet and con- sult as to the best means of massing the re- form vote ofthis country. The result will be, I think, beneficial tothe Nation.“ is not the result in the South rather a sur- prise to the members of the People’s party in the North?’’ was asked. »The South is all right,’’ was the reply. The party is growing there, The South is as anxious for independence from the old parties as the West, The crop of Alliance leaders which got to the front was too strongly Democratic. The next crop of lead- ers will be of the right Kind. Georgia and Alabama have repuaiated the action of the 100 Democratic leaders. Col. Polk represents the Alliance spirit, antl we are going to wipe out Mason and Dixon’s line. New York and New England are for the single gold standard. The South and the West are against it. Mr. Washburn talked earnestly in behalf of free colnage and asserted that the outlook for his party was very bright. ‘‘Our gains in Kansas were llie per cent over the vote of last year, said he, and in South Dakota we only lacked 2,700 votes of defeating the coalition of Democrats and Republicans. For ma party which is only a year old we think we are doing pretty well. We have three Senators, Pfeffer of Kansas, Kyle of South Dakota, and Irby, the Carolinian. We have nine Representatives in Congress. think the only show for the old par- tles, he continued, is to form a coalition. Vet the Republicans to nominate Harrison and Cleveland and the Lemocrats Cleveland and Harrison,’’ Mr. Washburn regards Senator Stanford's plan for the Government to loan money to ſarwers at: per cent as a step in the right direction. As to the future outlook, he de- clared that his party would hold the balance of power in the Electoral College. SPRINGFIELD JOTTINGS Items cf Interest Cathered at the State Capital.

The defendant, Lizzie Sweifel, who was repre- sented by Martin & Bass, is a most disgusting looking creature of filthy appearance and was dressed in ragged, dirty garments. The girl, whois nowin the House of Shepnerd, told her story, and said that her life of depravity and shame grew out. of ac- quaintances made at the cracker factory where she worked. The testimony showed that other girls employed in the factory had told her of those dis- reputable. places and the money to be gotten there without working, and that these same girls, brought her,to the houses and introduced her tothe woman who kept them. The confessed her own depravity, so did the keerer of the house.

Want the Chinese Kept Out. HELENA, Mont., Jan. 28.—The City Council last night unanimously passed a resolu- tion calling on Congress to pass a total Chinese exclusion bili. For sev- eral months there has been much dissatis- faction in Montana over the influx of great numbers of Chinamen from Canada. Dec. 6 Gov. Toole called the attention of Secretary Foster to the systematicsmuggling of Chinese across the border, but no relief has been afforded by the Government. McCann Refused Bail. Judge Normile this afternoon refused to admit to dail James McCann, who killed Hughy Gorham some months ago. The court stated that the presumption of Mc- Cann’s guilt of murder in the first degree was too strong to permit of his being released on bond.

Collector ZIEGENHEIN was accused by the Post-DIsPATOH of permitting liquor to be sold in hundreds of places in violation of the dramshop law, without dramshop license and without fear of prosecution. His obstinate hiding of official informa- tion needed for a comparison between his list of paid up licenses and the one in the office of the Federal tax collector, was cited as an indication that he was not only permitting others to violate the dramshop law, but was himself systematically vio- lating it and making himself liable to heavy penalties by issuing licenses on credit contrary to law. Councilman ANDERSON’s resolution called on him for a list of the licenses is- sued and in force Jan. 15, showing to whom each license was issued, the amount paid thereon, the dates of issue and expi- ration and the location of each shop. Instead of responding to this authori- tative call for official information with the specified report, Collector ZIEGENHEIN shrank from his duty like a guilty coward, and with the aid of President WALBRIDGE, the brewery ‘‘pulls’’ and de push, re- sorted toa most discreditable method of getting the Council, in the absence of the mover of the resolution, toaccept as a satisfactory response a letter of ‘‘confes- sionand avoidance’’ containing none of the information which the Council had called for and which he apparently dared not give. This systematic collusion of sworn offi- cers of the law at violations of law and sup- pression of the evidence of official crook- edness and perjury—where is it to stop? It is wronging honest saloon-keepers who obey the law and pay their taxes. Itis wronging tax-payers by diverting large amounts of revenue from the State and city treasuries and from the schoolfund. It matters not how the diverted money is di- vided or applied in politics, the thing can be stopped! The plea that former collectors under laws differing from those which ZIEGEN- HEIN disobeys did not collect as much as he does isa transparent subterfuge. The fault is not so much in the law as in the unwillingness and failure of those who are charged with its enforcement, and who rely on a wide-spread official conspiracy to protect them from the heavy penalties to which they expose themselves by their failure to epforce it. But a protective association of deter- mined citizens, indignant at the foisting of saloons upon residence blocks and at the nullification of our dramshop laws by the Collector and other officials, could soon compel those officials to showamore de- cent regard for their official obligations and less slavish deference to the advice of the retained attorney and political henchman of the brewery combine. 8 —, — Tae word of warning which the WorLD has given Senator HILL on the subject of using his power to havethe New York delegation selected at an unprecedentedly early date in order to down CLEVELAND and influence the action-of the Democrats in other States is a wise word in season. There is danger in an attempt to dictate to the Democracy of the country through the manipulation of the New York macbine. It might defeat CLEVELAND, through fear of losing New York, but it might arouse such opposition to Hm. that his nomination would be an impossibil- ity. Mr. OLEBVELAND is strong enough in the cougtry, and especially in the West and South, to destroy the man who defeats him by foul means. There is a possibility that an extraordinary effort to make New York the Democratic dictator would result in the throwing over of New York influence altogether. Many Demo- crates outside of New York are now urging this as a wise movein order to rid the party of the dangers of New York’s fac- tional wrangles. By using his power asa tyrant Hun would invite the fate of a tyrant. — ——— o —@w — 2 Tun point made by Czar ZIEGENHEIN in his confession to the Council that no fed- eral taxes were lost on licehses because they were collected in advance, but that the city is often cheated out of its revenue by dramshop keeper¢ who run their saloons for awhile and then close without paying a cent of taxes, was a pretty com- pliment to the Federal Collector and a severe condemnation of himself. No man has aright to openasaloon without a li- dense, and the Collector violates the State law and can be fined $200 every time he issues a license without first collecting the taxes thereon. The law requires that the license shall be paid for before it is issued. ZEIGEN- HEIN’s statement to the Council corobo- rates the evidence presented by the Posr- DisPatoH, that by waiting upon delin- quent dramshop keepers, getting their fines stayed and through other favors, he violates the law encourages its violation in othera, and permits the city and State to de detradded of revenue. — * JERRY Simpson is proving conclusively | to his fellow representatives in the House that the Alliance upheaval in Kansas turned up something good. SIMPsoN rep- resents a little of the crankiness and much of the sound reaction from the Republican policy of extravagance and unjust taxation which took Kansas out of the Republican line for one election. The uncouth Kansan has brains enough to grasp the meaning of the movement which placed him in Con- kress and is demonstrating that he is no man’s fool and can take care of himself. He is casting a shadow on PEFFER. —_—_———— —ü—äͤ Ir will be noted that Mr. BLAINE has taken care to relieve himself of the odium attaching to the Chilian olunders of HARRI- SON. It has. been persistently given out that the Secretary of State opposed the Presi- dent’s views and Mr. BLAINE is again in position to pose through a timely revela- tion of Cabinet secrets as the only able leader and hope of the Republican party. — — a" Senator Hin Blunder. From the New York Womo. Whatever too complaisant supporters of Senator Hill may say or do, men who have foresight and the courage of honest opinions know that the WORLD’s advice against calling the State Convention in February is good. The rank and file of the party. as shown by letters tothe Wortp and by the resolutions of Democratic clubs, are strongly opposed to snap judgments in matters of this import- ance, alike on the groundof unfairness and impolicy. Senator Hill has been reminded that Roscoe Conkling did not help the cause of Grant by holding a convention in February, 1890, to proclaim to the country that New York favored a third term. Delegates secured by sharp practice, or by a relentless use of the power of a political machine in violation of precedents and against party usage, are a source of weak ness rather than of strength. Especially is this true in à presidential cohtest. The voters disiike and may resent an at- tempt to advance the fortunes of a candidate for this great office by such tactics as are in contemplation to secure the delegation from this State for Mr. Hill four months before the meeting of the National Convention, The WORLD repeats its injunction to Sen- ator Hill: Don’t. Vigorous Western Talk. From the Chicago Times. Itis a cowardly and contemptible policy that demands of Chill what was denied to Italy. It is degrading to the national honor that the White House has been allowed to blus- ter and threaten while sustainingan adven- turer at Santiago and making display of force in order to aid him in his deflance of interna- tional law as recognized by this Government under similar circumstances. There is more than one apology due in this Chilian case. The first is from the administration to a people dishonored by political trickery. The second is due tothe inhabitants of Chili for the foisting upon them of an adventurer without a country, and with no other recom. mendation than his sergices to the chief of demagogues in this country. Under the operation of rules that govern the inter- course of gentlementhe whole Chilian dim culty could be arranged with honor in half an hour. But it must be done by gentlemen. Tricksters seeking persong! advantage from an unjust warcan have no standing in the case. THE PEOPLE’S FORUM, Food Adulterations. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: The many readers of your valuable paper should not fail to appreciate your efforts in trying to purify the milk that is sold to the thousands daily and represented in every case to the housewife to be strictly pure and fresh from the farm, It is a well known fact that we have laws to protect us from the evils of the’ selfish hucksters and manufacturers of foods pendled at the doors of our homes, but these laws are not enforceu and the con- sumer should not failtoappreciate the good work you have started in showing up this misrepresentation;and when you have fin- ished with this, I hope you will next call the attention of the people to many other articles of food that we consume and areas badly if not more adulterated than milk, namely, lard, butter, baking powers. soda, spices, vinegar and even tothe very candy our chil- dreneat. America, the greatest producing country under the sun, should be the last place where the consumers are cheated out of the richness of its productions. It has been ascertained that the mixing and compounding of our foods is a matter of economy as well as health tous. If such is the case, then give us the formula, that we may know what we eat.

THE CITY COUNSELOR WOULD PRESS HIM TO HIS DUTY. Laws Showing Clearly That-He Can Col- lect License Fees If He Wishes From the Clubs, Booths and Vagrant Saloons High-Class Saloon-Keepers Indignant at the Methods Which Support Unfair Competition. City Counselor William ©, Marshall was asked to-day by the Post DrspaTca if the law did not provide for the collection of a city liquor license from the clubs, drug stores, picnic parties and Fair Grounds booth-kKeep- ers. Collector Ziegenhein has claimed that his inability to collect license fees from those sources, allof which pay the United States license, explained t discrepancy between his returns and those of United States Vollec - tor Wennecker. The City Counselor declared that he could not give an opinion to the question, **Why not?’’ he was asked, f **Because as the City Counselor I must give Mr. Ziegenhein an opinion on this point if he asks it, and it would bee manifestly improper for me to anticipate that. Hag the Collector never asked your opin ion upSn the duties of his office?’’ No, he has not. It is worth while to note that Collector Ziegenhein is the only official of the city who ignores the assistance of the City Counselor. But the Collector doubtless thinks he has a better one in State Senator James ©, McGinnis. Senator McGinnis is sent to Legislature every four years by the brewers of South. St. Louis to take care of projects to submit prohibition to the people of the State and to look after the beer interests generally. The brewers own own outrightor have mortgaged on about 1,000 of the 1,800 saloons in the city and attend to the license ot Ag for them, Anything that hurts the little er saloons puts the brewersto trouble. The Anderson resolution made them send for Senator Me- Ginnis, and the Senator at once went into counsel with the Collector. Of course, he did’n want City Counsellor Marshall's opinion with Senator McGinnis to advise him. It was probably Senator McGinnis who conceived the masterly stroke of sending in the Collector’s report while Councilman William T. Ander- — who had proposed the inquiry was ab- sent. It was probably Senator McGinnis’ astute mind that arranged with President Wal- bridge the vindicating scheme by which the Collector's evasive and misleading report was declared to be ‘‘full and satisfactory.’’ WHAT ANDERSON ASKED. Councilman Anderson’s resolution was: That the City Collector be requested to furnished the City Council with a statement showing the num- ber of dramshop licenses issued by him that were in force on Jan. 15, 1892, to whom issued, where each shop is located, the amount paid for each license, the date of its issue and when4t expires, It was Senator McGinnis who prepared a report for the Oollector that, instead of answering those questions as Councilman Anderson intended them to be answered, replied that ‘‘there are about 1,800, including fractional as wen as whole Neenses,’’ and then got away from that dangerous matter. LAWS SHOVED TO ONE SIDE. No wonder that, with sucha helpful ad- visor, he did not go to City Counselor Mar- shall for an opinion. The Oity Counselor could have done nothing but show him the lawand explain it to him and that was not what the Collector was after. In the Collector's report to the Council, he says that city licenses are evaded by nomadic saloon-keepers, by baway houses, by drug Stores, clubs and Fair Grounds booths, from all of which the United States agents collect. If he had consulted the City | Counselor instead of Senator McGinnis he would have been told that the law plainly directs him to collect a license from all of those places exceptthe immoral houses, and requires the prosecution of those. MUST COLLECT FROM ALL. The extracts from the statutes would have been shown to him, Chap 56, Sec. 4569—Dramsnop-Keerer Derinep —A dramshop-keeper is a person permitted by law being licensed according to the provisions of this article, to sell intoxicating liquors in any quan- 19. not exceeding ten gallons. {( 1879, 1 35). ec. 4.570, LICENSE TO BE TAKES OUT, WHEN.— No person shall, directly or indirectly, sell intoxi- cating liquorsinany quantity less than one gallon without taking out a license as a dramshop-keeper.. (R. 8. 1879, §543—a.) Sec. 4578. COLLECTOR TO UOLLECT LICENSE. — The collector shall, without delay, collect from such person the amount specified in such statement, and Me a receipt forthe same, (K. 8. 1879, Sec. Sec. 4579. No LIcENSE TO IssUE WrTHoUT CoL- LECTOR’s RECEIPT. —The clerk shall not deliver to any persona license as a dram-shop keeper unt such person shall produce the receiptof the col- lector, showing that all the taxes levied on the same have been paid. Sec, 4583. PENALTY FoR VIOLATING THIS ARTI- CLE.—Any person convicted of a violation of any of the presenting provisions of this article shall be fined in a sum not less than $40 nor more than $200. (K. 5. 1879, §5449—¢.) There is no exception here. Nobody is al- lowed by law to seni uquor in quantities less than one gallon without taking out a dram- shop license. HE DOESA’T WANT AID. | If Cellector Ziegenhein had then pleadea his official impotence as he dia to the Council Counselor Marshall would have reminded him that the law gives the Ool- lector every aid in getting his license fees. A few more pages of the statutes would have been turned over and this point would have been given him by the law: Sec. 4584. GRAND-JURY TO BE CHARGED, ETc. The Judge of the court having criminal jurisdiction for the county shall give this article in special charge to the Grand-jury at each term ot the court. (R. 8. 1879, § 5450.) SRC. 4585.

SUING THE NORTHERN PACIFIC, The Northern Pacific Railroad Oo, was a party te two ‘cases called to, day, being appellant in one and respondent inthe other. Inthe first the railroad com- pany was originally sued by Albert H.

The court gave him $12,000, but a new trial was granted and the second jury gave bim $11,000. The road stin refused to accept the verdict and took an appeal. It was repre- sented to-day by John C. Bullitt, Jr., of St. Paul and the respondent by his brother, Samuel, of Jamestown, N.

John Morgan, allas John Moore, alias **Dinsmoore,’’ one ofthe bank sneaks who escaped from the City Jalil Oct. 2, was ar- rested in Chicago this morning by Assistant Chiefof Pqjice Marsh, who at once notified Chief Harrigan of the capture. A reply was made at once by Chief Desmiond, in which he said he would send Detective Tracy to-night with requisition papers. The Secretary of State at Jefferson City was telegraphed to for necessary papers and they willreach here to-night before the departure of the St. Louis officer. No time will be lost in placing Morgan behind the bars of the St. Louis Jall, from which he made his escape almost four months ago.

Mrs. Laura Hesselbach of Ninth and Cher. Okee streets was at the Four Courts this morning in tears, asking for a warrant against Bernard Huelsman, charging him with slander. Huelsman made an application for a Warrant yesterday in which he wished to charge Mrs. Hesselbach with arson, The lady was living on the second floor of his house, 8711 South Second street, Sept. 17, 1891, when the house was set on fire, and Huels- man claimed have evi- dence sufficient satisfy him that Mrs Hesselbach was implicated in the attempt to burn the house down. His evidence Was not strong enough, however, to satisfy Mr. Este nda warrant was re- fused. apt. Huebilerof the Second District also refused to arrest the woman ashe did not think Huelsman could make the case. Mrs. Hesselbach claimed this morning that Huelsman’s story was a slander and that he had given it to the press and public to injure her.

The Work of Relief Being Carried On by the “Post-Dispatch”’—Meeting Last Night of the St. Vincent de Paul So- clety—New Oases of Destitution Re- ported by the Police, : The supplies of clothing for the poor are still coming in to the Post-DIsrpaTcH Recelv- ing Depot, 615 Market street, which. is kept open for that purpose trom s a. m. to op. m. Every kind of clothing is acceptable, and the need for garments of all kinds among the poor is still very great despite the amount that has already been distributed. To-day a great many bundles ot all Kinds of goods were received, including bed clothes, under clothes, shoes and outer clothing and a large consignment of bread, such as was received yesterday, and turned over to the police for distribution. The cases of destitution reported from all sides are still as great as ever, and many new ones are being found, which are really deserv- ing. Occasionally a person is an applicant for assistance who after investigatiou turns out to be an impostor, but such cases are few when compared with the immense num- ber of genuine ones. The womenand children, as a matter of course, are suffering the most, as they can: not go about securing oda jobs here apd there as the men do, and earna few cents at atime. It must be said to the credit of the men of St. Louls, that there are very few of them who seek aseistance as long as they are able to work. Under these conditions it can be seen that the need for women and chi- dren’s clothing is the greatest and that every varment, no matter how old or how faded and worn, will bé a blessing and a relief to some unfortunate. The children need shoes and stockings, and there are many of them whoare compelled for economy’s sake to take off their stockings when they reach a piace of shelter in their poor homes, and save them sothat they will have something to wear when they go out. The goods received at the depot yesterday afternoon and this morning were as follows: one bundle of clothing from M. M. E. one large lot of clothes, shoes and under- wear from Mrs ©, 8. Fifty loaves of bread from Pechman & Co.’s Compton Hill bakery. One bundle of clothing from Master Lyle R. Two large bundles of clothing from Mrs. erry. , One bundle of clothing from J. F. One bundle of clothing from E. J. one package of butter from J. Union Market. one bundle of clothing and shoes from Mrs. R. Hutchinson. One bundle of clothes and shoes from Mrs. F. Miles, . Two bundles of clothes from R. Parsons & 0. One bundle of clothes from M. Lowenstein. One bundle of blankets, clothes, etc., left at tarr’s to be sent to depot. Three bundles of clothing, shoes and hats from the Globe Hotel. A letter ask! for ald was received from Mary Schoenlauh and referred to the Provi- dent Association. ST, VINCENT DE PAUL MERTING.

A SUGGESTION TO BOYS AND GIRLS, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: I would like to suggest through your valuable paper, which has done so much for the poor, that every boy and girl after school call upon their friends and neighbors, gather together all the things they do not reed and forward them to the PosT-DIsPATcH depot, 517 Market street, for the poor. It willdo so much good. FRANK FAY, JR. 2652 Olive street. ST. LOUIS, Mo., Jan. 27, 1892. Mr. JEROME KARST, General Agent Manufacturers’ Accident In- demnity Company, of Geneva, N.

I mailed the notice of death to company on the 22d, it was received by them on the 2th, and draft for $5,000 (five thousand dollars) was paid me to-fay, the 27th inst., without annoyance or expense. Such quick payment prompts me gratefully to recommend the Manufacturers to all my friends. Respectfully, Mrs. MARY M. Epox, 260942 Howard st., St. Louis, Mo. The Wrong Nen Arrested.

HENRY A. MOTT, Pu. D., Late Chemist for U. S. Govt. WILL TAKE A HAND. The State Democratic Committee to Help Redistrict Missouri. WHY THE NEXT MEETING IS TO BE HELD IN JEFFERSON CITY. . | Dissatisfaction Over Sending the Conven- tion to the State Capital—Pull Eujoyed by That Town-—-Why Committeeman Burks Suggested Ste. Genevieve—Gen- eral Political News. Most ofthe members of the State Demo- cratic Committee left for their homes this morning and but few of the candidates and State officers who gathered here to meet them could be seen about the Laclede this morning. The next meeting of the com- mittee is to be held in Jefferson City Feb. 24. This will be the second week of the special session of the Legislature, and the State or- ganization of Democracy is expected to take an active part in the framing of a bill to redistricf the congres- sional and judicial boundaries. Chairman Mafiitt, speaking on this subject this morn ing, said: Our principal object in fixing that time and place tor our next general meeting was to meet the army of Democrats who will be gathered in the capital city from all sections of the State. We want to meet them and get all the information possible re- garding the condition of the party in their respective localities. There is nothing to prevent the State Republican Committee or any other organization from meeting in Jef- ferson City at the same time. I Knowof nothing that the State Committee has done looking tothe arrangement of the congres- sional boundaries. DON’T LIKE JEFFERSON CITY. The action of the committee in sending the convention for the selection of delegates to the National Convention to Jefferson City has not given satisfaction. The st. Louis Dem- ocrats complain that Jefferson Oity has not furnished the proper accommodations in the past, and the same complaint comes from Kansas City. The men who spoke for Jeffer- son City before the State organization are allinfiuentialin State politics and this is given as the reason that a majority of the committeemen voted to send it there. Sena- tor Jasper N. Burks of the Tenth District was one of the committeemen who opposed Jef- ferson City. When he saw that the capital city had a sure thing on the first of the three conventions, he created some merriment by nominating the ancient town of Ste. Gene- vieve, which has no rail connections. He said Ste. Genevieve was as competent to take care of the convention as Jefferson, and those who objected to taking the river to get there could take horses, mules or walk. He had in his time ridden twenty miles on a lean mule to get toa Democratic convention. Another point in favor of Ste. Genevieve was thatit furnished much better whisky at 10 cents than could be gottenin Jefferson City for 15 cents. While Henry W. Ewing was waxing elo- vent in favor of sending the convention to efferson City, Senator Burks asked if they still fed the people on rabbits up there. Mr. Ewing solemniy assured the meeting that the colored population had ex- terminated all the rabbitsin Cole and Calla- way Counties. OUGHT TO BE HELD HERE. Speaking toa Posr- Disraren reporter to- day Committeeman Burks said: The con- vention ought to be held here and 1 am sur- rised St. Louls made no effort for it. am sure the people all through the Southeast would rather come here than go to Jefferson City. Delegates who attend these conventions ought to be well accommodated, because asa rule they spend money freely to pay for what they get. I hope St. Louis will reach out for the other conventions.’’ EXPECT MUCH WRANGLING. The opinion of the politicig@ns who came here toattend the meeting was that there would be some lively times in the special ses- sion, not only over the Congressional boun- daries, but the judicial lines well. The Circuit Judges hold Democratic districts object to any great changes on the bounda- ries and Demactatic lawyers ambitious to be- come judges, but who are prevented by the Republican aspect of their sections, will want them changed to make them Democratic. In doing this the Assembly will have to make some districts now Democratic, reliably Republican. The Stat politicians claim that there will be more culty making the new judicial districts than will be experi- enced with the Congressional lines. One of the plans suggested for the new Con sional Gistrigt was to take Warren, Franklin, st. Charles, St. Louis, rt of St. Louis Ol and other solidly publican counties and let the Republicans have it. If this 18 done it is claimed that the Tenth can be made reliably Democratic without 9 Democratic chances in the Eighthand Nint districts of this city.

DEVOY & FEUERBORN, 704 Pine street. Wants a Pension. OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 28.—An Omaha Indian named William Tyndall is about to ask Uncle Sam fora pension. His home is on a farm near Bancroft, but he is now in this city taking the necessary steps to present his claim. He has a discharge showing that he was mustered out of the service at Omaha in 1866, at the age of 20. He was born in Douglass County forty years ago, and enlisted in this city during the rebellion. He was sent to Ft. Kearney and then farther West on frontier duty. He served under Capt. Griffin. Tyndall was not wounded but may claim a nsion under the general ‘disability act. ie asserts that rheumatism contracted in the service has unfitted him for work. He speaks English very well, dresses like the whites, and is very unlike the average Indian. — Bemoaning. A retail grocer was bemoan- ing his failure to get along prosperously in business, and seemed to think it was not his fault. The gentleman to whom he was talking was an ex- grocer who had retired with a snug fortune made vut of the business. The ex- grocer, in order to illustrate one of the reasons why a bet- ter trade was lacking, called for a bottle of Dr. Price’s Flavoring Extract of Vanilla. “I do not keep it.” said the grocer, “but I have an extract just as good Which I can sell at a less price.” Here was a convincing proof that there were very good reasons why trade was poor. The ex-gro- cer says, “I was successful because I kept the best and finest goods and sold them at a fair profit. Poor goods, no matter at what price sold, will help to make your trade dwindle. The acquisition or loss of trade goes on silently and steadily in proportion as the grocer sells goods that please those who patronize him. I always sold Dr. Price’s Flavoring Extracts, as my customers did not want cheapness at the ex- pense of quality.” GEO. J. FRITSCH Stove, Furniture & Carpet Co. FOR 30 DAYS ONLY.

Panis, Jan. 28.—It is expected that a report Will soon be made to the Chambers on the subject of Government assistance in the completion of the Panama Canal. To under- stand the present situation, itis reqyisite to state that the ninety-three years’ concession of the canal granted by the Colo mbian Gov ernment in May, 1678, stipulated for the opening of the canal within twelve years, In 1881 M. De Lesseps formed his Panama Canal company, which stopped payment and sus- pended operations in December, 1888. The amount of capital raised by that now bank rupt company amounted, according to the liquidator, to 1,329,693,078 francs. Almost the whole of this enormous capital was furnished by the small capitalists, who placed bund confidence in M. De Les sepe and who saw in ‘the enterprise another colossal success sim!- lar to that of Suez. Soon after the discomfiture of M. De Les- seps’ company the judicial MNquidator, with the support of the Government, sent a tech- nical commission tothe Isthmus of Panama to determine Whether it would be possible to complete the work. This commission, at the head of which was the celebrated engineer, M. Guillemin, declared in its report that there were no insurmountable obstacles to the completion of the canal with locks. The capital required for that work was estimated at 600,000,000 francs. Inthe meantime M. Napoleon Bonaparte Wyse was sent by the judicial liquidator to negotiate with the Colombian Government forthe prolongation of the time originally fixed for the’ opening of the canal. This was obtained in .December, 1890. The Colombian Government granteda further delay of ten years for the opening of the canal, on condl- tion that the bankrupt company should hand over all its assets, plant and rights to anew company, to be constituted for the comple- tion of the canal, and that the new company should resume the canal works by Feb. 28, 1898, at the latest. If, then, the proposed new company isnot formed within the next twelve months the concession will lapse and the Panama canal stockholders be deprived of their last hope. It is on these grounds that the stockholders expect, it is said, with rea- son an early recommendation in favor of carrying the work to completion. HUNGARIAN ELEOTIONsS. RIOTING AND DISORDER ENGENDERED BY THE CAMPAIGN. Bupa Preru, Jan. 2%.—The elections for members of the Hungarian Diet have com- menced. The animosities of the political parties, which have been growing in strength ever since the campaign opened, are now at fever heat, and as a measure of precaution against any disturbance the Government has dispatched military assistance to the author- ities in many rural districts. Ever since the dissolution of the Diet the campaign has been actively proceeding and the various meet- ings have been marked with disorder. In some cases actual fighting occurred and it was necessary forthe police to intervene to restore peace. The excitement in the vicin- ity of the polling places throughout the coun- try is intense. Inthis city fears are enter- tained that an outbreak may occur, and the police and military are held in their barracks in readiness for any emergency. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS.

New York, Jan. 28.—Mr. Lewis Brewer of Meadowbrook, Long Island, eloped with Mrs. Lewis, a widow, and added another chapter to a sensational attempted murder five years ago. Mrs. Brewer quarreled with her hus- band at that time over the attentions which he paid to Mrs. Lewis and Mrs. Brewer was found one morning with several Eashes in her head. Brewer was sentenced to prison for five years forthecrime and Mrs. Lewis was acquitted of the charge of being an accessory. Brewer gave his attorney a mortgage on his farm for his fee and the attorney foreclosed the. mortgage, but al- lowed Mrs. Brewertolive onthefarm. The attorney effected a reconciliation between Brewer and his wife at the husband’s release from prison and gave him the farm. Brewer said he wanted to move from the nelghbor- hood and he accepted $1,500 from the attorney for his interest in the farm. He took.the money and elope? with Mrs. Lewis, his old flame. Brewer is 72, his wife is 70 and Mrs. Lewis is 40. The same day Brewer’s son eloped with Mrs. Alice Smith of Bellmore,a sister of Mrs. Lewis. Young Brewer became infatuate@with Mrs, Smith six years ago,and served two years anda half for attempting to kill Mr. Smith. OXE trial proves Fairbank’s Clarette Soap.

NEW Tonk, Jan. 28.—The German steam- ship Polaria left Stettin on Jan.5 for New York with a big cargo of general merchan- dise and twenty-eight steerage passengers. Since leaving Stéttin nothing has been heard her. The Volariais not a greyhound by any means, butinthe extremes of weather she usually makes the run from Stettin to this port in abouttwenty days. Her non- appearance and the lack of tidings are caus- ing anxiéty. tothe boisterous weather which incoming ships are reporting. It was suggested yes- terday that the Polaria might possibly be the steamer which several ships have report- ed seeing on fire in mid-ocean. This, how- ever, is considered improbable. The only thing toconnectthe burning steamer with the Polaria is that the overdue ship was probably in that part of the ocean where the unknown burning ship was sighted. The agent of the Polaria laughed at the sugges- tion that she was the burning vessel. The burning steamer, according to all reports, Was an Oll-iaden ship and was bound from this port. The Polaria is commanded by Capt. Busch, a cautious and skiliful seaman. See Genelll about life-size photo framed free this week. 923 Olive street. MISSIONARIES MURDERED. — Horrible Butchery by Some of Stanley’s Portuguese Explorers. NEW Lonk, Jan. 28.—Correspondence from St. Paul, De Londa, Africa, under date Dec. 1, says: Late advices which have come to this city from Boma, in the Oongo Free State, bring newsto the effect that the American mission, which is established on the Congo River in the neighborhood of the Palla Balla Station, has been made the scene of a terri- ble tragedy in which five American mission aries, three menand two women, and seven native converts and servaats lost their lives at the hands of murderers. Itis also men- tioned that all of the mission buildings, schools, residence and granaries, were burned to the ground and the cultivated felds laid waste. No evidence*has yet been discovered which conclusively show whothe perpetrators of the cruel murders are, but suspicion points with something like cer- tainty to a number of haltf-civilized Portu- guese natives, members of the Loango tribe, who were originally taken in the Congo Free State by Explorer Henry M.

EVOLVING A PLAN TO SUIT ALL SHADES OF TARIFF REFORMERS. The Silver Question Will be Sent to the Rear—Probable Action of the Caucus— South Carolina White Rep&mblicans Making Overtures for a Democratic Al- liance—Political News. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 28.—The policy of declaring the position of the Democratic House on the tariff and silver questions by means of a series of resolutions will probably be adopted by the Democratic caucus. The fight in caucus, if there isa fight, will proba- bly be over the character of the resolutions. The advocates of Senator Hill's policy of negation will urge the weakest possible reso- lutions in regard to the tariff, in order to keep protectionists, tariff reformers and free traders all within the fold. The more earnest tariff reformers will probably propose substi- tute resolutions defining more fully the attli- tude ofthe party in favor o® free raw ma- terials, reduced duties on manufactured products and revenue yielding duties on lux- uries, Tne reformers say that the character of the tariff resolution will determine whether or not they willaccept the planof substituting resolutions for a general tariff bill. They wanta policy which means something and does not look like a cowardly evasion of the issue. Mr. Springer stili adheres to his policy of bringing tariff bills dealing with single articles, but he seems in no hurry to act, and said yesterday he did not know just how soon he should call a meeting of the Ways and Means Committee; and they have re. sultedinno agreement. Probably nothing decisive will be done by the committee until the entire problem of tariff action is submit- ted to a caucus. Some of the Eastern members of the House, who are very much in earnest on the subject of revenue reduction, are willing to accept strong resolutions on the tariff and silver questions in preference to attempts at legis- | lation which might result in the passage of a free coinage bill. Their purpose, next to re- forming the tariff, is to post pone or defeat free coinage, and they are ready for almost any honorable compromise which may ac- complish this result. If the question was simply one of the tayiff, they would probably insist upon a general tariff bill, butif the adoption ofa series of resolutions means that there will be no silver legislation. they may be brought to accept this programme. The silver resolutions, according to the Gorman-Brice programme, will simply fol- low the idea of Senator Hill, that the silver act of 1890 should be repealed, and that an international conference on the silver ques- tion should be called. It is hoped thatthe Eastern men willl unite with the Western menupon this proposition, and that both sides will be contentto let the matter drop with the adoption of such a resolution. There will be opposition to it from the free coinage extremis, but they will oe yield to the decree of the caucus. yhether they do or not they could hardly muster votes enough in the Houseto everthrow the rogramme which the caucus had adopted. No caucus has yet been called, butthe lead- ers will probably get together soon after the rules have been adopted ard agree upon a Gefinite programme. WHITE REPUBLIGANS. DEMOCRATS ASKED TO JOIN A SOUTH CAROLINA ° ANTI-NEGRO PARTY. | CHARLESTON, S. C., Jan. 28.—The white Re- publican party, recently organized in this State, is making overtures to the straight- out Democracy, which was defeated by the Alliance movement in 1890.

A BOGUS CORPSE. A Wax Figure Said to Have Personated a Defaulter’s Body. NEw BRUNSWICK, N. J., Jan. 28.—A meeting of the stockholders of the Jamesburg Bank, whose cashier, T. Wilton Hill, has been de- claredan embezzler for a large amount by Bank Examiner Stone, broke up in the great- est disorder upon receipt of information, al- leged to be reliable, that Hill is not dead, and that a waxen figure was placed in the coffin which was believed to contain the body. Some credence was placed in the story when the fact was recalled that noone but Hill’s immediate family were present at the funeral. A local physician had been called in when Hill was stricken with the grip, and no one was admitted to the sick cham- ber. When Hill's death was announced but little time elapsed before the body was buried. ‘The rumor that Hill is still alive is being intensified by the report that he has been seen within the past few days on Fourteenth street, New York, in company witha woman whose name bas been con- nected with his defalcation. As Hill’s life was insured for $20,000a few days before he was said to have died it is thought this may have some bearing onthe case. The insur- ance companies are investigating the mat- ter. The Examiner found that Hill had stolen $50,000 from the Jamesburg Bank. Thestock- holders are to held liable for $15,000 over the amount redlized from Hill's available assets. A vote taken by the stockholders yesterday on the question of the bank’s con- tinuance resulted n a tie. Two-thirds of the stockholders have announced their intention of contesting any suits brought against them to recover the deficiency. It is not believed here that this effort on their part to save themselves will succeed.as the fact has come to light that the bank officers had neglected to place him under bond last year.

MADRID, Jan. 28.—The proclamation ofa state of siege at Bilbao has had the effect of cowing the riotous iron and copper miners in the vicinity of that city. The local civil and military authorities were not able to hold the rioters in check, and they had matters pretty mucb their own way until last evening, when Gen. Loma and his battalions of ingantry, his cannon and detachment of lancers, arrived at the scene of the disturbances. Tne knowledge then dawned upon the rioters that the Government did not propose to stand any nonsense. The striking miners had yes- terday attacked the troops from Bilbao sent to restore order, and last night they seized a dynamite depot and made many threats of the damage they would do unless their protests against the reduction in their wages, which was the cause of the strike, were heeded. Their courage oozed away, however, when Gen. Loma took charge of affairs, and those who had been most violent in their denunci- ation of the mine owners and the authorities soon assumed a more conciliatory manner. Gen. Loma gave the strikersto understand that should the occasion arise he would shoot all rioters down without mercy. He told them that he was there to restore and main- tain order and he intended to do so, no mat- ter what the cost of life might be. This de- termined enunciation of the military com- mander’s intentions had the desired effect, and to-day everything is quiet throughout the district. The strikers who have been ar- rested will be tried by court martial. ANTI-CHINESE AGITATION. HELENA, Mont, Jan. 2.—The anti-Chinese sentiment is growing every day.

James Orooks, a Negro, Fined by Judge Paxson This Morning—Other Cases. James Crooks,a very black negro, was fined $25 by Judge Paxson to-day. He mingled with the crowd of poor women who congregated in front of the Third District Station at 5:30 last evening in quest of food and clothing and insulted them so outrageously that they rushed into the station to . complain. Officer Tierney arrested him. Martha Griffen testified against him in the Second District Police Courtto-day. . William Lawier, who conducts.a coal yard at Jefferson avenue and Morgan street, was fined $25 for cruelty to animals. The offense was committed on the 7thinst. Officer Den- nis McGuire and Special Officer John Holmes prosecuted Jos. Smith, a colored man, for driving a galled horse which belonged to Lawler. Smith was fined $25, but he pleaded he was not to blame, because Lawler directed him to take out the animal. Mr. Holmes had the fine remitted for this reason, and took out a summons against Lawler. The same testimony was rehearsed to- day which was ven in the trial of Smith. Mr. Holmes testified that the sores were three inches long. Mr. Lawler statedon the standthat the statement of Holmes relative tothe sizeof the sores was emphatically untrue. Healso said that the sores were due to the ignorance of the Griver, who did not know howtohitchup a horse. Judge Paxson said he ought to sure of his drivers before committing the care of horses to them and fined him $25. Business Suits for $20.

The Woman’s Medical College, No. 1414 Lacas place, willcreate a new chair to be known as that of alcobdlie effects. The in- terest of the Woman’s Temperance Union has been enlisted, and circulars were being pre- pared for distribution among the temperance societies. The backing of ple prominent in temperance circles has brought the sug gestion that temperance be taught from a scientific standpoint.

According to the Chicago Tribune Jack Chinn has been let out as starter at Garfield Park, Chicago: As Col; Chinn is well known in this city, where he has numerous friends, and as he is to be the starter at the new East St. Louls Jockey Ciub, whose meeting opens here next Saturday, this news will be of particular interest to the people of St. Louis. Col. Chirtn’s ownership of horses is, ij is estimated, the cause of his being let out. While the starter has owned the Kentucky Stable it was under- stood here that after taking the position of stagter at Garfield Park Col. Chinn sold his stable or at least made a nom- inal transfer of it. The Tribune article says the case may get into the courts as he ob- jects to being let out. Below is the Tribune article on the subject. The face of Col. Jack Chinn will beam no more from the starter’s stand at Garfield Park. While Dame Rumor has been busy with Garfield Park affairs lately, and has sent broadcast some queer stories about new tracks at Loulsvilie, San Francisco and other points it has not neglected to circulate the story of Col. Chinn’s dismissal. No direct cause is assigned for it, but the reasons are not hard to surmise. In the first place Col, Chinn is part owner of the Kentucky Stable, which rachd all sum- mer at Garfield. Bookmakers and owners alike entered mild protests against Col. Chinn starting his own horses. No fraud of any kind was alleged, but they claimed, and with good cause, too, that an owner had no business with the starter’s flag in races in which his own horses were engaged. Then, too, it has been an open se- cret for some time that the relations of Col. Chinn and the erstwhile autocrat, Lewis Clark, were not the most pleasant in the world, and Mr. Clark’s influence may have brought about the result. During the summer and fall, while Haw- thorne remained closed, the Garfield Park officials paid Little heed,to the protests of horsemen and bookmakers, and when the season was brought to an abrupt close came to a verbal agreement with Col. Chinn to start this year. During the winter it devel- oped that Eg Corrigan was preparing for an active campaign this season, and forthwith the Garfield people became solicitous for the wants and wishes of the bookmakers and owners. Col. Chinn in due time received a politely worded missive telling him that his services would not be wanted the comin season. He was wrathful clear through, an had not cooled off during his recent visit here. He announced that he would hold the club to the verbal agreement, and the matter may be aired in the courts. In the meantime the club is hustling for another starter, and has made an Eastern man a flattering offer, which he is consider- ing. GUTTENBURG RESULTS.

Dan Honig intends shipping a string of horses to East St. Louls and one to Gloucester. Trainer Donovan has blistered Tenny twice, and says he appears to be better than at any time last year. Twenty mares belunging to the Rancocas breeding establishment have been sent to be bred to Sensation. Tournament will probably be put in train- ing some time in March for the early spring handicaps, if recent rumors are correct. Tennessee, a great steeplechaser some years ago, died recently. He was owned by Ed Corrigan, and was by Ten Broeck, out of Lizzie Hoover. : Trainer P. Ryan has purchased the entire interest of John A. Logan, Jr., in the horses formerly raced inthe name of Mr. Manning. anor include Tringle, Lavish, Marmont and 0. THE RING. Cal McCarthy of New Jersey and Tommy t | Callaghan, the English featherweight, fought before the Olympic Club of New Orleans last evening for a purse of $2,000, of which $500 goes to the loser. Both men were over- — — but it was agreed the fight should Dp 0 Callaghan had a die ad- vanta in height and reach and prov himself a hard hitter, but in science and generalship the mesican outclassed him. Jimmy Carroll and Prot. Jim Robinson were back of Callaghan, while Mc- Carthy was seconded by Jack G’Mara and Willie Kenner, the ex-amateur champion, an recently defeated. C ecution and al his biows are detalied, he had the vanta after the rounds and won the battle on his merits and not any In concludes that it was * the fourth he landed heavily on the English - man’s nose and got awuy without a return. Oallaghan knocked Mac down with a right and staggered him with another right in the fifth, but honors it is said were still even. Each got in some biows in the sixth and seventh rounds, the little Jerseyman fre- uently running away from Callaghan. There was some heavy exchanges and considerable clipping in the eighth round. Callaghan almost floored the American witha ieft-hander in the mouth and forced him to clinch to' avoid punish ment and afterwards chased him around the ring. Inthetenth round McCartny secured first blood, drawing it from Callaghan’s nose. It was Mac's round. Neither had any ad- vantage in the eleventh round. There was nothing worthy of note in the twelfth and thirteenth except the Englishman’s clever ducking. McCarthy was onthe defensive in the fourteenth round, in which there was some heavy fighting. McCarthy knocked his man out in this round with a left-hand up- per-cut in the stomach. It is claimed on behalf of Caliaghan that be could not make much use of his right haud which he broke six weeks ago on the head o young Dwyer. His friends wanted him to ask for a postponement of the fight for two weeks, but he agreed to go ahead with it. rhe Olympic Club. will endeavor to match McCarthy against George Dixon for a $5,000 urge, and it is said there will also be a side bet of 66,000 on the battle if arranged. This will be the third meeting between McCarthy and Dixon, the first being a draw and the second being won by Dixon, who will no doubt win again. FITZSIMMONS AND MAHER. A San Francisco exchange says, referring to the announcement that Peter Maher and Bob Fitzsimmons have at last been matched: American sports would like to see what Fitz- simmons is really worth against a big fellow. fils ight with Dempsey was one-sided from the start, and many who saw it have said that had Dempsey been taller he would never have been whipped. Fitzsimmons is a heavy- weight in everything but Weight, and with his superior science and height should not sufferany disadvantage by giving Mahera few pounds extra weight. He is a very active fellow, more so than Maher. While not hitting as hard as Maher he can deliver oftener, and, witn his accuracy, ought to tell more severely against a second-rate rushing fighter like Maher. Fitzsimmons ought to make just sucha showing as Pritchard did with Smith. Amatch between Maher and Fitzsimmons would be productive of good results. Should Fitzsimmons be defeated his chances for big purses will diminish and he will have to fight oftener. The same with Maher. Billy Madden will have nouse forthe Irishman should he be defeated and Maher will then be thrown out on the world to battle for smali purses. Some of the high-priced fighters have to be whipped, and the sooner the better. BILLY MURYHY’S FUTURE. Billy Murphy, the erratic Australian feath- er- weight, was givena benefit in Sydney just before the Alameda sailed. All the boxers of any note .volunteered and everybody promised to patronize the affair; but on the night the majority of the boxers failed to materialize and the receipts amounted to only £9. Murphy sparred four good rounds with Jim Burge. He was, however, dis- gusted with Sydney and announced that he would leave it for good. Since he wrote his sensational letter to this country, calling his countrymen a colony of convicts, he has been in queer street, and it is probably for this reason that he is anxious to return to Amer- ica, recently de- parted with so much money. A year ago it was stated that Murphy’stwolots in Sausa- lito, bought out of the proceeds of his fights, had been sold for delinquent taxes. The con- stable of the town bought them, but a few weeks ago he turned them over to a friend of Murphy’s, who paid the taxes, etc., and now awaits Murphy’s return toredeemthem. A. G. Hales, Who arrived in San Francisco on the Alameda, recently_ said, referring to the report that he was acting as Murphy's rep- resentative here: I will not make any promises foy Murphy. We have nad con- siderable trouble with him in Sydney; where little reliance is placed on his word. I told him that I was willing-to take up a match for him here and cable himif any arrange ments should be made; Dut that is all. The clubs * have to trust to luck in getting him lere. from which he BANTAMS MATCHED. New YorK, Jan. 2.—Tommy Kelly, the Harlem Spider, and Chappie Moran of England, were matched yesterday fora ten- round fight for $500 a side, the contest to come off within three weeks. Both men are bantams. It is thought that the fight will take place near Brooklyn. PUGILISTIC POINTERS. Charlie Vokes and Bob Brown, two Cincin- pati lightweights, battled for supremacy on a barge near the Ohio metropolis last night, Brown was so badly battered up that it is thought he will die. : Jimmy Carroll, on behalf of Bob Fitzsim- mons, challenges any middleweight in the world. Johnny Griffin, Whois also managed by Carroll, has also agreed to meet any 122 to 128-pound fighter in the worid, Fred Johnston of England, preferred. Fitzsimmons wants to meet Pritchard. In New South Weles recently a fellow who was known'to be anything but a fighter is- sued a challenge to box all comers. Over sixty applicants were on hand the following morning. The challenger did not show up, but when the newspaper reporter found him he laughed and pointed to a vacant coffin near him and reminded the scribe of the exact wording of his challenge. WRESTLING. HAMMOND, Ind., Jan. 28.—Billy Murphy of Chicago, champion light-weight wrestler of the Northwest and Barney McConryille, the „Hercules of St. Faul, decided a match, catch-as-catch-can, dest two in three falls, tor 68. 000 a side and 78 and 25 pos dent gate receipts, here at midnight last night, Murphy won easy in two stright falls.

The Attractions in Town and Coming— News of the Stage. That Mr. Potter of Texas“ is an amusing drama there can be no question, but it is amusing because of its absurdity as a drama. It is certainly one of the most remarkable mixtures that have been placed before the public. It is surprising that a manager of Mr. Sanger’s sharpness should have wasted talent and money upon it or would consent to be prominently identified witn it. It is impossible for either manager or actors to get credit for work in such a flimsy and senseless lot of truck. — +. The instantaneous view of Maud Haslam's tights is one the features of All the Com- forts of Home’’ which made it a suecess, as it was a part which created talk. Although it is a mere farcical device it still creates in- terest and laughter. Although the fun of the play is not uproarious the audience find enough enjoy ment in it to pass an evening pleasantly. ‘ ä * The Hanlons seem to have exhausted ingenuity in devising illusions and comical tricks for ‘‘Superba.’’ In scenic and special features also the production contains an abundance of entertainment for admirers of ite class of attraction. * * = The evidence all points to the conclusion that Harry Lacey has another play in Jack Royal’’ which is suited to the popular taste for exciting melodramas. The play bas the elements which appeal to the love of romance, stirring situations and stage hero- ism and itis meeting with enthusiastic ap- proval at Pope’s. 9 * Bill Nye will be seen on the stage of the Grand next week, that is to say his double will pass through some ofthe laughable ex- periences of the humorist when he was The Cadi’’ ofa Western village. Nye is said to have reproduced himself cleverly, and to have put into the mouth of his representative many ofthe funny sayings the like of which have made him famous, Excellent specialties are said to be interspersed with and a clever company is promised. * * > Nhe sale of seats for the benefit of - urer Mantzatthe Olympic next Monday ‘large, and those who wish to be in the bouse tbat night to see Clara Morris in her remark- able impersonation of Cora in *‘L’ Article 47 must hasten.
