Ah ola Party Traditions Upset by the Present Unique Gathering—Bvery Shade of Reformer Has a Voice-Biue and Gray Fraternizing—Weaver Heir to the Indianian’s Boom. OMAHA, Neb., July 2.—It would bea dim- cultthing to convince the average Alliance man who witnessed the convening of the first National Convention of his party this morning that it was not destined for great work. There was harmony. order, inteili- gent delegates; and a degree of enthusiasm that was simply overpowering in its magni- tude. At 9 o’clock this morning the dele- gates began assembling, and in half an hour a thousand delegates were struggling with ; 1 each other for admittance. The gentleman from Kast Tennessee, with the home spun suit and a hat of the vintage of , good-naturedly elbowed his way between the aged ex-Confederates of Joe Johnston’s command and the Union veterans of Grant’s Vicksburg legions. As the various delegates of prominence took their seats the convention cheered as only the vigorous hardworking man can. Potter, Ingalls’ successor, received an ova- tion. Jerry Simpson brought down the house. The ery, Where are your socks, Simpson?’’ was heard on every side, Kd - ward Bellamy, Donnelly, Weaver and Ben Terrell of Texas, in their turn, created un- bounded enthusiasm by their appearance. Just before Chairman Taubeneck raised his gavel a wild-eyed granger from Pike County, Mo., Hon. Gold Baxter, screamed ‘‘What are we here for?“ A corps of Georgia and Texas —— followed with a genuine rebel d yell, and delegates lost themselves in the mad cheering that followed. As Taubeneck faced the vast assemblage a large banner was unfurled by the Massachu- watts delegate. The inscription in old gold was The Spirit of 76.“ The Chairman in- ‘troduced Mayor Bemis, who welcomed the delegates. C. H. Eljington of Georgia was made tem- porary Chairman. He made a lengthy ad- Gress. At the conclusion of the Chairman’s speech Mrs. Todd of Michigan stepped to the front of the platform to present Chair- _ Ellington with a “wie of fervor, a history attached. The gavel was carved, she said, by the wife of Ben Terrell. It was carved from the tree planted by Wash- mston at Mt. Vernon, an announcement which was received with enthusiastic cheers with the presentation. She recalled some patriotic incidents of the past, such as the thering of a small body of merchants and rs, determined to shake off the shackles of British tyranny. and these incidents gave rise to the greatest outbursts of enthusiasm of the day. Then she da:clared that the Constitution of the country had become as ina -as the MHfeless figure of the Goddes berty, and that the birth of the People’s party was the first step toward the new Declaration of Independence. Chairman Ellington appropriately replie4. At the coneluston of this little incident the chairman directed the roll of States b@ called and the various States to report their mem- bers of the Committee on Credentials. FIGURING ON GRESHAM. After the announcement of its membership the Committee on Credentials was requested to meet immediately after adjournment, in order that its report might be facilitated. After some speech- making a recess was taken till4o’clock. Onre-convening the speech- making was continued. Gresham again wired to-day that under no circumstances must bis name be used, and so, although the ballot for President does not take place till Monday, it is probable that the general avaliability of Gresham and the proba- Dility of his accepting the nomination if tenaered bim will continue to be a fruitful theme of § discussion until the last hour, unless Judge Gresham himself makes a declaration so positive that even the brawny farmers ofthe nation, not used tothe niceties of phraseology, cannot fail to understand his position. The friends of Gen. Weaver of Iowa have madethe discouraging telegram of Judge Gresham the occasion for pushing their favorite into greater prominence and there is littie doubt that Weaver is to-day, with Gresham out of the race, the popular choice ofthe convention. The General himself has very little to say, avowing that his first choice is Gresham and that he does not de- sire e mentioned in connection with the nomination uniess it be positively known that the great Indianjan will not accept. Georgia is opposed to the old soldier resolu- tions introduced at St. Louis providing for the paymept of the Union veterans. A del egate f that State expressed the belief that it would be quietly dropped by the Com. mitteeon Resolutions, as that was the under- standing among all the Southern delegates. Me said that it was the only thing which was Deing used as a biudgeon in the hands of the opposition to kill off the Peo- Pe's party followers, and that ff it was allowed toremain it would result in the loss of thousands of weak-kneed veterans, not only in Georgia, but all through the South. He declared that the world, the flesh and the devil could not keep the two sections apart if this was left out, but that it was imperative that everything looking toa continuation of memories of the past be rigorously excluded, Just before the opening of the convention n that — Nationalists will meet a 0 Sun morning at the Windsor. There are about — hun.- dred of them among the delegates and they propose to organize in order to secure WANT A KEW PLATFORM. The Minneapolis delegation will ask that a a Committee at Chicago. He came to Omaha from Chicago and feels that he has m4 found someone of his own faith. | At the last reckoning the Colorado Silver League had eighty odd clubs with a member- ship of 4,000. The Denver Club alone has 11,000 members. Each man signs a pledge to vote for no man for any prominent office, ex- cept he is unqualifiedly for the free coinage of silver and gold and stands on a platform declaring for free coinage. When the mem- bers of the Denver Club signed the roll they were asked to give up politics. If the propor- tion holds throughout the State as in Denver there are about 18,000 Republicans and 15,000 Democrats in the League, The rest are Third party men or give no politics. We can hold nine-tenths of the membership on the st. Louis platform and carry Colorado.“ **Whom do you prefer for the presidential candidate?’’ **We consider Gresham sound on the silver question, and he would be entirely satisfac- arg & lthink, nowever, that John T. Morgan of Alabama would be a better candidate. I am not as enthused as some who think the third party candidate can be elected. The most we can hope to dois to throw the elec- tion into the Democratic House. Morgan has a better record as a Democrat than Cleve- land, and he would stand some chance of being 5 ority of the Representatives twenty-seven States are silver men,and it only takes twenty three States to elect.’’ A NOTE OF DISCORD. The late ernoon session of the Alliance Convention veloped: some features that bear the Unmistakable marks of discord. On Spoon vanes at 8 o’clock there was much hur- ried ispering among the leaders on the that — . aio As the silence became painfully embarrassing ‘‘Cyclone’’ Davis of Texas arose and asked the chair to explain the situ- ation. He was informed that the committee had asked for more time for consideration. Nothing was said of reasons for more time being necessary. Many could not understand the situation in view of the fact that the slate has been previously ar- ranged. The two names being considered for the position of permanent chairman are Loucks, President of the Farmers’ Alliance, and T. V. Powderly, Grand Master of the Knights of Labor, the feeling being strongly in favor of the latter. It is understood that the fight between the two, which was sup- posed to be a merely -natured struggle eveloped into a litical row. It resolved itself into a got largely between Weaver’s friends and his o nent. Then there are other causes for discord. Various delegates with schemes to work through the convention saw a chance in the fight to secure pledges of supoort in return for their vote and they lost noopportunty. They re- mained in session trying to compromise un- til 6 o’ clock. Inthe meantime, the convention was en- tertained by speeches from Donnelly, ‘‘Oy- clone’’ Davis and others. At that hour the committee was unable to agree on any — * and so reported to tue convention. Theft it was that an adjournment was taken until Monday in the hope of patching up the trouble, To-night a grand reunion of Unior and Confederate veterans washeld. The veter- ans recounted their experiences, and closed the rally with the assertion that the two branches had united permanently in the People’s party. UNDER WAY. OPENING SESSION OF THE FIRST PEOPLE'S PARTY CONVENTION. OMAHA, Neb., July 2.—At exactly 11:10 there was a slight lull as Chairman Taubeneck of the National Committee stepped to the front, and when he announced that the first National Convention of the People’s party was now convened in regular session there was a burst ofapplause. Prayer was offered by Rev. Benjamin Diffenbacher and a well- known Alliance man. The next thing in order, said Chairman Taubeneck, will de au address of welcome by Hon. George P. Bemis, Mayor of the city of Omaha. The following is Mayor Bemis’ address of welcome: Mr. Chairman and Delegates of the National Con- vention of the People’s l’arty, Friends and Fellow- Citizens—It has been my good fortune during the first few months of my term of office to welcome to this midway city of the country some of the most gatherings that have ever convene any 01 of the world. among others the Methodist General Con- ference, the Manufacturers’ and Comsumers’ Asso- ciation, the National Competitive Drill Association, the State Business Men’s Association and others. Now the pleasing duty devolves upon me to extend in behalf of the city of Omaha, right hand of fellowshi to the grand representative convention of the People’s party of the United States. (Applause). Your party repre- sents the great wea'lth-prodacing classes of the nation, the farmer, artisan and laborer. en certainiy are most cordially welcome to a city that depends on the efforts of your people for ite life and prosperity. toacity that prospers when the farmers are rewarded for their labor and lan- b protest the here the nation belng few; while the thousands are employed and many cutvering for the necessities of life.

New Anu, Ind., July 2.— Judge W. O. Gresham was in New Albany this morning on his way to Zanesville, County, called there by the death of his brother, Col. Benjamin Gresham. While in New Albany he received a telegram from Jackson Orr in regard to his acceptance of the nomination for President by the People’s party, and in reply sent the following: Hon. Jackson Orr, Omaha, Neb, : In view of the friend! — r appears still to be cone lde at it is due you and your fellow delegates that I should say I do not esire to be the standard-begrer of the People’s Pacty, and could not accept a nomination unani- mously tendered. “Ww Q.

The Indianapolis News ay sent the Judge the following dis pa 2 Will you say something for bablteation in the In- dianapolis News? Will you accept a nomination if tendered? In reply the News received the following: ORLEANS, Ind., July 2. The Evening News, Indianapoliz, Ind.: I would not accept on atiorm. [Signed] 1 N W. which my name Q. GRESHAM. There wasa tone of sadness in Gen. Weaver’s voice when he read the felegram, saying: Me know how he fs in eerethy with us and endorses our platform, but he has met an afiiction and will not bea candidate. How about your own Candidacy in view of his declination?’’ was > ‘*‘Icannot say anything on that point. I am not seeking it. I was earnestly in favor — 33 and I greatly fegret he will not e : >? Do you think the nomingtion will be made on Monday?“ Jean see no reason for Keeping the con- vention longer,’’ he said. The ded@iination of Gresham has had a very depressing and marked effect. The boom had been worked a majority of the convention believed he would accept. It is now likely to be Weaver and Terrell of Texas, or McDowell of Ten- hessee. Van Devort of Omaha is quite prom- oom mentioned since Gresham’s declina- on. STEWART'Ss BOOM, IT IS ONLY A LITTLE ONE FOR A CENT IN THE SENATOR'S FAVOR. OMAHA, Neb., July 2.—There was a little boom for a cent in behalf off Senator Stewart to-day. It consisted of distributing his silver speech, delivered Junelin reply to Senator Sherman. When the convention reassem- bled this afternoonaman stayed at the door and gave every delegatea copy of the speech. It shows he wants to de med, as the bill was putupinan envelope with his frank on the corner. It is astonishing how interest has flagged in the convention . since esham’s telegram was made public. Delegates go about crowd at Willard’s Hotel. To-morrow after- noon memorial services will be held over the death of the late President Polk of the Alli- ance. The crowds which were expected to- ow are still minus. * owderly’s health 1s such h cbald nbt pre · side; or he would have been selected as per- manent chairman. He was able tos at a public hall to-night. Since Gresham’s declination active consul- tation has been in progress with members of the party at Washington. Senator Peffer and othersthink Weaver, having na Greenback candidate for President, is not good timber for this year. A caucus was held by Kansansand some other delegates to-night, and Senator Kyle of South Dakota was agreed upon as acandidate to place in the feld against Weaver. The feeling to- ward ‘\ eaver is personally good, but the ad- visability of nominating him is regarded very doubtful by a large number of delegates. A WAYWARD GIRL. Found in a Dive Concert Hall by Her Father. New Tonk, July 2.—From aconvent to the stage of a Coney Island concert hallisa long step, but pretty 16-year-old Maggie Carmody took it. Her father, William H. Carmody, of 160 Fulton street found her last night doing her turn at the London Galety Concert Hall with rouge on her fresh young cheeks which needed no artificial aid to bring out the roses in them and an abbreviated gown which dis- played her well developed figure to the best advantage. Four years ago the girl’s parents separated, and Maggie, who even at the age of 12 was inclined to be wayward, was placed in a Peekskill convent. It is said that Maggie ran away from the convent and made her way to Brooklyn. Her father then put her in St. Paul's Convent, Brooklyn, but six months ago she escaped from there and disappeared fora while. Three weeks ago she called on her aunt, Mrs. Maria Johnson of 188 Sackett street. She was stylishly dressed and when questioned as to her manner of living said she worked in a bakery and*did housework for the proprietor’s wife. Maggic's soft white hands didn’t look as if they were used to housework and Mrs. Johnson had her doubts. Last. I a friend of Mrs. Johnson told her that she had seen the rl at Coney Island dancing in a concert all. Maggte’s father was notified, and when he found her last night he took her before Chief of Police McKane and the latter turned her overtoa Mrs. Inman until she could be returned to her aunt, Mrs. Johnson, who has undertaken to look after her. Maggie bearers to be allowed to go back to her concert hall friends. She said she was earning $a week and was happy. she ac- cused her father of lacking in parental love. **Before 2 lead a life like this, said the father, ‘‘why don’t you drown yourself? I would rather see you dead.“ The Children’s Society has been asked to take the matter up, but as the girl is too old to come under the society’s care the aunt will try to keep her straight hereatter. STARVING MEXICANS, Large Quantities of American Corn to Be Purchased, MONTEREY, Mexico, July 2.—On receipt of official communication of President Dias re- garding the free transportation of corn and beans from the United States from July 1 to Sept. 30, Gov.

Wasnineror,D. C.,July 2.—The inside facts ‘@s to the retirement of Gen. James Clarkson from the head of the National Oommittee are beginning to be ascertained from reliable sources, and will be of great interest to poll- _Ucians everywhere. The relations between ‘President Harrison and Mr. Clarkson ever Since the former’s nomination in Chicago in 1888 have been unique and peculiar. A Re- publican politician of prominence, whose in- ‘tiniacy with Gen. Clarkson is sufficient guar- tee of his accurate knowledge concerning t gen tleman’s attitude toward the Presi- Gent, as well as his exertions in behalf of the “Republican party said to the Sunpay Post- Dteraron correspondent to-night: ‘During the summer, autumn and early Winter, Mr. Clarkson had used his office to try and unify the party on the President’s @Babanimous nomination, after he had learned that Mr. Blaine would notin any event bea Candidate. He tried to keep the President and the Secretary together and did much work on this line. He had really the most friendly personal relations with the two men, end was always anxious to keep them to- gether, and always believed there was room Song in the present and in history for each to win great and sufficient renown. It is known that Mr. Clarkson, after Mr. Blaine withdrew in February, thought a clear field had been left for the President. There Wasno other candidate. He believed that the masses of the party in their honest ‘thoughts believed in the President and his —.— and that, except as to Mr. Blaine, great body of the party was in favor of the President's return tothe White House. Me was surprised at the outcome after Blaine head withdrawn before any State con- bad been held or any delegate elected, when in the final returns the President had gained by instruction only 300 of the 900 delegates, and a good many of them were instructed in the South; he felt that this meant that the party in the Nortb, in the States which had the Republican President to elect, with the utmost friendliness to the President, still feilt that a new man would be mecessary, one who had made no enemies and could command every vote which was wanted for the Republican party can idates. before men, when he turned away from nearer friends than Harrison at Chicago in 1888to go to him for President, he felt that the party this time, in itedoubtful year, ought to take the man with the strongest possible following, and Who would give the party the largest assur- ance of success. A FRANK INTERVIEW. „Gen. Clarkson was compelled to come North by the critical affairs and debts of the National Committee. Otherwise he would not have been in the convention. He came to Washington before going to the National Oonvention, wentto see the President and had a frank talk with him for three hours. In this interview he the same personal friendship for the President, the same admiration for his great career, and yet frankly told him he Was opposed to his nomination for a second term from no other reason than that he be- Heveda newman without any faction and able to control every vote which wanted to De Republican would poll a larger vote, and he believed Mr. Blaineto be the man.

OO A Oo Ea SATURDAY, ae committee who talked with the President gained the same impression as Mr, Clarkson, that the President desired the committee to make its own organization. During the day a combined attempt by four-fifths of the committee was made to induce Mr. Clarkson to accept the chairmanship, He said the ractical interests of the party and his own, e felt, would not permit it. The members then suggested that two or- ganizations be effected, as had been done revious to the campal of 1883; that the National Committee elect its own ‘chairman and secretary for four years, and then a campaign committee to make the fight this year should be selected after conference with the President and Mr. Reid. The National Committee would delegate all its powers to that committee for the campaign ana Mr. Clarkson, as Chairman ofthe National Com- mittee, should be a member of the campaign committee. 7 party would thus be united, an factions ld disap * from the com- mittee and harmony wou revail through- out. The committee 9 ave the benefit of the trained ability of all its members at the same time that the organization for the cam- paign was given over to the new men and new biood, thus removing any possible ob- jection on the part of any crilics of the party who may have questioned any af the methods employed in the campaign ot CLARKSON FI — ‘*Several members of the committee told Mr. Clarkson that the President was agreeabie to him. Mr. Clarkson still refused to say what he would do, and said that he expected to have another interview with the esident before the committee met, and that he would follow the wishes of the President whatever they hould be. Late on the evening of the day before the committee metthe President in consultation with two or three of the members ot the com- mittee who had not favored Mr. Clarkson’s election either as chairman of the national or of the Executive Committee, was informed that they had made a canvassof the com- mittee during the day, and that from forty to forty-five of the fifty- two members of the committee were in favor of making Mr. Clarkson chairman on the line indicated above. The President had evidently changed from his mood the night before and the morn ing of that day, and said he could not allow Mr. Clarkson to be chairman, and he re- quested the gentleman to inform Mr. Clark- son and tell him so directly. The President senta note to Mr. Clarkson requesting an interview for 9:30 the next morning. At this interview the President frankly informed Mr. Clarksonthat he did not desire him for chairman of either com- mittee; that he did want him on the Execu- tive C ommittee, and told him of the line of work he wished him to follow. Mr. Clark son had no argument with the President but instantly said that he woul conform to his wishes and that although a strong majority had been insisting that he accept of the two chairman- ship plan, accept the national chairmanship and serve on the campaign organization, he would not accede totheir wishes but to the President's. He returned to the Arlington Hotel, where the committee was waiting to meet, and was very sharply criticised oy his strongest friends on the committee for hav- ing acceded tothe wishes of the President. lie wasfirm in his position, however, said there was no question of what he ought to do, but while bis own judgment approved of the committee keeping its own organization and of delegating its power for the campaign, which the candi- date had a right to expect, he still felt that he should accede to the President’s desires. The committee met, the roll call was per- fected and Mr. Clarkson, as temporary chair- man, stated that the next thing in order was the permanent organization. Mr. Fassett, representing a very strong majority of the cummittee who still insisted on the party organization for four years, while giving the President and Mr, Reid the or * tor the campaign presented Clarkson's name for the piace. As coon" as he con- cluded Mr. Clarkson. informed the committee of the wishes of the President, said that he complied with them and beg ed that no one should vote for him, thanked the four-fifths of the members who had been so kind as to want to vote for him, but stated plainly that if he should be elected he would decline. Then followed peculiar scenes from 12 o’clock ~ 6 — the evening, when Mr. Campbell was elecced. CLEVELAND'S VIEWS. DEMOCRATIC OCONGRESSMEN WANT A SILVER LETTER FROM HIM. WasniInoton, July 2.—There are many prominent Democratic members of the House, who believe that a letter from Mr. Cleveland at this time on the silver question would beof infinite service to the party. They hold, in fact, thatitishis duty to write one. He isthe representative of the party in the highest sense, and the action of the Senate on yesterday, in which thirty Democratic Senators directly or indirertly eee has set the seal of approval on he 14 plank of the Chica e As Pp seme? ie ouse has now to act, vanity what the Senate has done the ng necessarily would be to embarass Mr. Cleve- land in his candidacy for the presidency. The argument in support of this proposi- tion isthat the Chicago Convention re 2 oA sented adater expression or the Dem ouse K wens n a comparatively brief time of “et at 8 Oy, ouse ission nearly torent convention's action, t ie ft represe ¢ party's 8 latest views on sliver,an * — ding on the ity of the a threat that it eA in that ought ouse, nisin for * Mr. rying here from home in | 0 ntative charge of the campaign. The Senate bill which was reported to the House to-day, wil be referred on Tuesday under the rule of the Coinage Committee, and Wednesday that committee and begin consideration it. There is no reason to believe that the delib- eration will be protected. Onthe contrary, the probability is that the bill will be speedily reported back to the House and an effort made to pass it. It is for this reason the friends of the Chi- cago platform feel that Mr. Cleveland should express himself onthe subject. There is no doubt as to where he stands, but the point is made that as thecandidate of the party for the presidency he ought to exert every effort to prevent the part Bap non blundering in the popular branch of ess which it controls and that a letter from. im now would be cer- tain to have a salutary effect on that body. He has many + there who greatly value his counsel, and who, it is asserted, would see their way ciearer if they hada word from him before the agitation of the silver ques- tion again makes headway. The present sit- uation differs from that in the winter of 1885, when Mr. Cleveland, in advance of his inauguration as President, wrote his cele+ brated letter to Gen. Warner of Ohio on the subject of the free coinage of sliver. The Democratic majority of that House disre- garded that letter, but the presidential elec- tion was over and the party had won. Now the election is yet to be held. The candidate named has not even been formally notified of his nomination. Everything, therefore, goes for the utmost prudence bot on the part of the House and the candidate in qrder that the party shall not be handicap in the campaign. The Democratic House and the Democratic Convention must, it is Reid, face the same way on tue silver question or success in November Will be seriously imperiled. There is some criticism here of those Democratic Senators who have led in this movement for free coin- age. Thecomplaint is made that they.have acted without due regard to Mr. Cleveland as the party leader, and the observation carries additional force by reason of the fact that they were opposed to his nomination at Chi- cago. Mr. Brice, alone of the Democratic Senators who voted on yesterday to sustain the financial plank of the national platform, objected to Mr. Cleveland’s nomination while all of those recording themselves in favor of the Stewart bill were advocates of the selec- tion of a new leader for the presidential cam- paign, It is now charged that these Senators voted for the purpose of embarrassing the man they falled to defeat in convention but that they have shown little regard for his views on silver or for the platform upon which he must stand is plain enough and the majority of the House is asked now by the wiser members to remedy this by refusing to pass the bill. This whole question has been thoroughly canvassed to- and it is not improbable that Mr. Cleveland will be requested to give his views at an early day, so that the Dem- ocrats of the House and the country may come in good time toa realization of the sit - vation as he—as the party’s candidate for the Presidency—sees it.

PLATT EXCHANGE ICY GREETINGS. New Ton, July 2.—Secretary Tracy ar- rived from Washington last evening and put up at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Secretary Tracy isa great cigarsmoker. After dinner at the hotel he came into the bar-room, bought a fat cigar and sat down upon one of the famous plush covered sofas. The substance of the Secretary’s remarks to a reporter with whom he chatted was that the administration was perfectly friendly with Mr. Platt and Mr, Miller, the engineers in charge of the New York State Republican machine, and that, notwithstanding any apparent coolness at this time, closer and more cordial relations would be resumed between the President and Mr. Platt and Mr. Miller in a natural 712 Secretary Tracy said that he had no right to speak for the President. He said he was merelg giving his opinion of the situation. He believed in -the loyalty of all New York State Republicans. Just at this moment in strolled ex-Senator Thomas ©. Platt. He and Secretary Tracy have been friends from boyhood. It is not to be disguised that Senator Platt | and his friends have not approved ‘the course of Secretary Tracy concerning the ' patronage of the Brookiyn Navy Ya and elsewhere. Mr. Platt’s friends have insisted thatthe Secretary has resorted to exjreme measures for the purpose — * his per- sonal loyalty to the Preside **How-de-do?’’ said Mr, Piatt tothe Secre- tary ‘How are you?’’ responded the Secretary, and the two men grasped bands for only a second. Mr. Platt was like an icicle and Mr. Tracy was somewhat taken aback at the coolness of Mr. Platt's pasties. The two men parted instantly, r. Platt pulling his new eg down over his eyes and walk- out to the main entrance of the hotel, while Gen, Tracy started on his way back to his parlors. Neither had met in two months. To put uu mildly, Mr. Platt's greeting was ugly. It was mere convention ality that induced them to shake hands. Yet, Mr. Tracy says that everything will be har- monious between Washington and New York Republicans at the proper time, TEXAS CAMPAIGN, THE CONTEST FOR GOVERNOR GROWING WARM— THE CANDIDATES. Panis, Tex., July 2.—The gubernatorial campaign in this State waxes hotter and hot- ter each day, and what the outcome of all this fuss and fury will be ho one can tell. That Hogg will go into the convention with a majority over Clark is now generally con- ceded, but as the two-thirds rule has always obtained in Democratic conventions in Texas it is doubtful if the Governor will succeed in getting that number instructed for him. If he fails to get them instructed he will never win them over, because the others will be in- structed for Clark and the delegates unalter- ably opposed to Hogg. As a solution of the problem some of the Hogg leaders openly de- clare that they will adopt the majority rule. If this is attempted it will cause trouble, as all of the Clark men and many Hogg men are opposed to such a course. Col. Jake Hodges this city, one of the ablest and most zeal- ous friends of the administration, says that he had rather see the Governor beaten than to see the two-thirds rule abolished. Others who favor the majority rule as a principle do not deem it wise or expedient to adopt it now. They say that it would be unjust to the minority and unwise at this time be- cause it would smack of the rule or ruin idea. But in spite of the opposition of the Clark men andthe counsel of the more conserva- tive Hogg men it is believed that the majority rule will be abolished for the convenience of the Governor It is believed that he is quietly working to have the two-thirds rule abol- ished. on. Horace Chilton, whom he ap- pointed to the United States Senate, and who was defeated in the Legislature, is the Gov ernor’s bosom friend and litical sponsor. He favors the abolition of the two-thirds rule. If it is abolished, there will be a split in the convention and two gubernatorial tickets will be placed in the fleld. Hogg will cer- tainly head one and Clark or some ocean, ardent opponent of the Administration will head the other. Then will rage the greatest political battle ever fought in Texas. The outcome will be very uncertain, and for once in twenty years the candidate of some other political party may be landed In the guber- natorial chair. Judge Nugent, the candidate of the People’s party, is an able and worthy man. and it is believed that he will polla large vote. With a Republican ticket, a People’s party ticket and two Democratic tickets in the Mela the chances are that Gov. Hogg would be re-elected. The negroes would vote al- — solidly for him. No matter whom the ublicans nominated it would be impos- 218 e for their candidate to carry the negro vote against Hogg. The negroes are for Ulm because they consider him tue friend and protector of their race. What inspires them with this idea is that last summer in Cass — when an indignant community rose 15 masse and burned a negro at the stake who had outraged and murdered a respect- able white woman, the Governor offer re- ward of $1,000 each for the arrest and convic- tion of ose engaged intheaffair.

LITTLE Rock, Ark., July 2.—The Republican State Convention will meet in this city on Wednesday. The only business to be trans- acted isthe nomination of a State ticket. Up to yesterday it was generally conceded that Thos. H. Barnes of Fort smith, a prom- inent lawyer of that city, would be the nom- mee for Governor. He is one of the most popular citizens of Sebastian County, the home of W. M. Fishback, the Democratic nominee. Barnes was Gen. Powell Clayton’s choice for the position on account of his pop- ularity and his residence. He believed that he could split the Democratic vote in Sebastian, and thereby reduce in that section of the State Fishback’s majority. Could this be done, he argued, and with the People’s party Grawing 8 3 vote from the Demo- cratic ticket, he felt confident that enough solid negro votes could be obtained in Eastern Arkansas to elect Barnes dy a respectable plurality. But Clayton’s hopes have been crushed to the earth by the positive refusal of Mr. Barnes to accept the nomination. He says he would not accept even though he had the most itive assurances that he would be electe He has an extensive law 1 worth four times as much as the salary of the Governor’s office. n Barnes’ refusal to permit his name to go before the convention the Republicans commenced to look about for another aon gate and found one in the person of Col, G. Whipple, ex-Mayor of Little Rock. His nomination will be very distasteful to Clay- ton, between whom à coolness has existed for many sep The ex-Mayor has been a silk stock — 1 considers himself too good to atten ward primaries and has always been unwilling to acknowledge that the brains of the party in the State was cen- tered in Powell Clayton.

Will iams of Pine Bluff, who had not asked for the place. Ever since that apoointment the Re publican boss has had less use for Whipple han he ever had before. The ex-Mayor concluded that he had better make friends with Clayton, and it was not long after the appointment was made that he began to humble himself to the old cavalfyman. Clayton pe yp eg his ill-feeling and as an evidence of good faith will approve Whip- le’s nomination for Governor. There will no other candidate before the convention for Governor and W hipple will be nominated by acclamation, He isa good talker and is radically in favor of the force bill. During the days of reconstruction he was the first white man to march at the head of a procession of negroes. O years ago, ina speech in the Pulaski County Republican Con- vention, in answer to the remark of a young colored delegate, who charged the white publicans with conspiring together to su 2 the negro, he announced that his ion in the convention was no better han that of the humblest colored delegate, and in which respect he considered Dlack as the ace — spades, ship of the National temporary cr * at Chicago.

July 2.—Prince Bismarck has been ft entreated at Kissengen to @ilate further on the Emperor and Chancel lor Yon Caprivi. He maintains, however, absolute silence. His special organs have also become reticent. This silence does not mean cessation of the agitation. The parties are quietly excited and are arranging them- selves for or afainst Prince Bismarck. The leaders of the National Liberals, though dis- approving of the Prince’s recent utterances, are ready to resent any interference with him, and to oppose the Government if it Ventures upon a prosecution. A strong section of the Conservatives are in a similar mood. On the other hand the Freissinge party and the Center party meant the Government to take immediate action against the Prince. The Frankfort Zeitung, a liberal organ. urges that it is time to end the toleration the Government has accorded Prince Bismarck. Despite the en- couragement from the Radica's and mem- bers of the center party, the Government is irresolute. The official opinion is that if the Prince renews his attack prosecution will be inevitable and prompt. In the meantime is enjoying repose triumphal progress, and ence at Kissengen bas drawn that place. In a private letter to a Hamburg gentleman alluding to the thrgatened prosecution of himself, Prince Bismarck says that he has too much respect for himself not to know the limit beyond which he ought not togo. In referring to others he defies any one to show that he has overstepped this limit. The Munich Allegemine Zeitung returns to the defence of Prince Bismarck in an article denying that his criticisms were inspired by n desireto return to omce. It says that his ‘gummary dismissal precluded all thoughts. The West Deutsche Allegemine Zeitung renews the call for the publication of the truth regarding the Prince’s. dis- missal. The simultaneous appearance of the articles in both organs suggests Prince Bismarck after his his pres- crowds to that Prince Bismarck means to push the government to action. Five anarchists, Komner, Rentheler, Ruf, Wiener and Dobberstein, are undergoing triai at Leipsic for high treason. They are charged with distributing fly sheets to sol- diers. The trial is heid in Camer. The Emperor has finally allow a military board to go to the Chicago Columbian Exposition. Pro!r. Zeigfiela, to whom the Minister of War communicated this decision, will engage Von Bulow’s famous Hamburg Philharmonic Orchestra to play in the Temple of Music. Princess Radigwell has intrusted Minister Phelps with the sale of a col- lection of letters of Count Von Moltke, written in french, at the time Count Von Moltke was a young officer. It appears from the letters he had an affaire de cœur with the Princess. They are charmingly written and give a fine insight into the character of the great General. Kx- Empress Kugenie will arrive at Carlsbad next week. Mrs. M. Sewell, President of the National Councilpf Women of the United States is now here in thejinterest ofa Woman’s World’s Congress at Chicago. BISMARCK INTERVIEWED. Muwnicu, July 2.—The Neueste Nachrichten prints a report of an Interview had by one of its representatives with Prince Bismarck, in which the ex-Chancellor, speaking of the comments made upon his recent utterances, says: Revenge is not my object, least of all upon my successor in office. If I raise my voice I do so for the good of the Fatherland.

Toronto, Ont., July 2.—A special from Wiarton, Ont., says: On the morning of Dominion Day, the citizens of Wiarton were surprised to see the Stars and Stripes float- ing over Union Jack on the premises of Rev. G. A. Yomans,) a Presbyterian located here, It was the largest flag in the town, While the British flag was the size ot an ordinary bankerchief. The citizens be- came excited and called the authorities’ at- tention to the matter.

A Destructive Storm Sw Several Missouri CLARKSVILLE, Mo., July 2.—One of the most destructive rain and wind storms of.the sea- son swept down on this little city this even- ing between 7 and 8 o’clock and m prop- erty was destroyed. The Lemon Bros,’ circus which was exhibiting here had just begun their programme when the flerce wind struck the tent and crushed the canvas in against the seats with terrific force, thor- oughly terrifying the audience. Prompt ac- tion on the part of the circus peoplein put- ting out lights and holding the canvas as much as possible saved many lives, although several were considerably bruised, while Wm. Beli of Dennison, Tex., the boss canvasman, was knocked insensible by a falling pole and was seriously injured. Before the crowd could all get out into the drenching rain the large tent collapsed and fell to the ground, The sdeshow tent was also blown down, damaging much of the property. There is great gloom among the parties who have fine farms behind the Sny Levee, opposite this city. Mr. John A. Wirick, President of the Imperial Mills of this city, says he has lost hope and fears that ere morning the wind will have pushed the angry waters through some of the weaker places, It is thought that if the levee holds to-night that the river will be ona stand-still to-morrow.

The people living in the threatened district are in con- stant dread of a deluge, but hope still keeps them at home. It is thought if the levee gives away to-night many persons will be in dan- ger of losing their lives. The Levee Com- missioners are untiring in their efforts to pro- tect the supposed weak places. The em- bankments are watched night and day they withstand the tre- flood in the river to-night the worst will certainly be over. The storm to-night played havoc with shade trees all over the city. An awning in front of Price & Suda’s hardware store was biown down, smashing one of the largest glass fronts in the city. Considerable damage was done to wheat u the shock in this vicinity. AT SPRINGFIELD, MO. SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July 3.—The storm which commenced here to-night about 9 o’clock proved to be a serious one.

CLEVELAND, O., July 2.—Secretary Bonham of the State Board of Agriculture continues to receive reports of injury to wheat. Early wheat contains little grain and that is ofan inferior quality. G. B. and J. V. Peters of Galloway, grain and seed men, say that injury is not caused by green louse because it has not been in their section. They sent Secretary Bonham specimens of a brown insect about the size of a pin head, which they think has injured wheat. The Secretary, however, after examining a large number of samples, about concluded that the damage was caused by scab. Many fields, n in South- ern Ohio that look well are not expected to yield more than one-third of a crop. London Amateur Athletes.

PEORIA, II., July 2.—The village of Arm- ington is wildly excited over a bold robbery which took place there this afternoon. E. T. Berry isa banker there, and at 4 o’clock he was sitting in front of the railing, when a pleasant-faced man entered and engaged him in conversation. The stranger informed Mr. Berry that they were comrades in the war, and they talked over old times until the customers had left the bank. The stranger, under pretense of getting out some documents, reached into his pocket and produced two _ revolvers. He drove the bankerinto his private room and locked the door. There was a pile of greenbacks on the counter amounting to $600 and the robber grabbed this pile ana left the room. The banker managed to escape from the room where he was imprisoned a few moments later and gave the alarm. The en- tire town turned out and assisted in the search, but no trace of the stranger could be found. The authorities at Arminston think it the work of Peoria talent and they arrived here this evening in search of the man. It is a fact that several smooth bank breakers are in Peoria at this time, but the effort to locate this man is almost a hopeless one. It was one of the most daring cases of daylight rob- bery in this vicinity Hor many years. A FATAL DOSE ADMINISTERED TO A BABY BY A 38-YEAR-OLD CHILD. MATAWAN, N.

The truth flashed across her mind and she asked the boy what he had done. **I gave baby that ttle because I did not want it around here,’’ was his childish re- ply. The ,grief-stricken mother seized her 21 — rushed to the door and called her husband who was at work in the field.

Two miles down the track only moving at sixty miles an hour, it en- countered the north bound passenger train which had left Atchison at 10:45. The force of the collision threw the wild car from the track and pitched it over an embankment and into a ditch fifteen feet deep.

When the collision oc- curred the belt slipped off the electric dyna- mo on the Neurmahal, which threw the yacht into total darkness and caused a panic, and those on board thought the yacht was sinking. The Neurmahal is well known as William Astor’s boat, and was chartered last spring by James Waterbury for the season. The rumor was circulated that Van- derbilt’s yacht Alva had been run into, but it is believed that this is the only accident that took place. NEW YORK, July ot the Stonington Line wasin collision with Mr. William Astor’s Neurmahal on Thursday night. The Cap- tain ofthe Maine lays all the blame on the pilot of the yacht. When the yacht was sighted, he said, the weather was clear and the elements calm. She was evidently mak- ing for New London. Signal was made for the yacht to pass to port but she paid no at- tention. When the signal was again given the yacht answered with two blasts, signify- ing that she would cross the Stonington’s bows. Seeing that a collision was unavoida- ble signal was 8 4 sent to the en- ne room to stop. Meanwhile, the wheel of he steamer was thrown over to port, but it was too late. The steamer struck the yacht on the starboard quarter, but fortunately it was a glancing one and no serious damage was done, 6 A MINE CAVE-IN.

The Revenue Cutter Corwin Seizes a Supply Vessel. A LARGE AMOUNT OF SEAL SKINS FOUND ON BOARD. 0 Excitement in British Columbia—The Vessel Chartered to Act as a Supply Tender for the British Sealers—The Re- port Not Yet Confirmed in Official Circles. Victoria, British Columbia, July 2.—The United States revenue cutter Corwin has , Seized the British Steamer Coquillan at Port Etches, Alaska. The Coquillan was chartered by the British Sealing Association of Victoria to act as a supply tender to their feet of seal; ers which have just been seized. ~ On board of the Coguillan are nearly $100, - 000 worth of skins. The selzure was made June 22 for transferring skins and stores within four marine leagues of the coast. A reporter was on board at the time ofthe A seizure, but obtained release from District Attorney Johnson on his agreement to be present at the trial in October. Transfers of skins from several of the seal- ers had been made at the time of seizure and she had 6,192 skins on board worth sis per skin. Lieut. Quinn went aboard the Coquillan and puta guard over the hatches with instruc- tions toallow nothing to be touched and no boats to come alongside. He then examined the ship’s papers. The fact of there being no manifest seemed to him a bad thing. ree THE CARGO. Capt. McClelland explained that she had cleared for the Pacific ocean and required no manifest. ‘*‘What are you doing here thep? inquired | the officer, | } Taking water,“ was the reply. | But you have discharged cargo here and are intending to discharge more.’’ lam not, said Capt. McClelland em- x phatically. ‘‘Our arrangements are com- pleted for transferring the freight and suits to-morrow at sea off the three. mile limit. That is as bad,“ said the Lieutenaft. The Government has jurisdiction over six miles. You cannot discharge cargo the distance, and here your own log show you dia mention that at Tonki, and you are liable to seizure.’’ She arrived at Sitka'June 26, on Monday. She was turned over to the civil authorities, District Attorney Johnson stated that he would prosecute the ship on several charges: First, for discharging three miles off shore at Tonki; second, for discharging in Etches; third, for being without a manifest, On the first one, however, did intend to prosecute. He that the vessel was p trading in American waters. There is 88 excitement here over the event as being far the most serious seizure the United States has ever made, and will do much to intensify the bitter feeling now prevailing in British Columbia. The matter is to be brought to the attention of the Home Government. Only nine schoon- ers were provisioned of the entire fleet, and therefore nearly all the others will come home immediately.

There is some interesting reading in to- day’s Post-Dispaton for the delegates who are coming to nominate three gu- preme Court Judges in this city next Wednesday, and also for the voters throughout the State who will be asked to elect the nominees of that Convention. The interview in which Genera! Solicitor BLoDGETT of the Wabash Railroad Co. admits that his endorsement has helped Supreme Judge SHERWOOD to obtain a large loan from bank while the Supreme Court docket was heavily burdened with cases ap- : | pealed by the railroads, is the first fruit of the Post-DisPaTcu investigation of grave charges made by respectable and stanch Democratic papers against Judge SHER- woop. There may have been no bribery at all in this particular transaction, but it certainly opens the shortest and safest route to the utter corruption of public jus- tice. As to the matter of the employment of Judge SHERWOOD’s son as a salaried railroad attorney by a road which has many cases pending before him, including a settlement with the State in- volving conflicting claims amounting together to nearly a million dollars, 3 Judge’s virtue ought to hold out unwarped by such favors. Buta bench of Supreme Judges thus entangled in the network of railroad influence; owing their positions to the free use of the money and political machinery of the railroads; dependent on the activity and power of railroad attor- neys in politics and business for loans of money and for lucrative places for rela- tives—this surely is not such a Supreme Court asthe people of Missouri desire or can afford to trust in these days of pluto- eratic organization and aggression. In addition to this Blodgett testimony, the reader will find in this issue an elo- quent open letter from ex-Gov. CRIT- TENDEN to the General Solicitor of the Missouri Pacific system, imploring him to call off his political attorneys and to prevent them from desecrating the Mis- souri Democracy’s Judicial Convention with their scandalous presence, their pur- chased proxies, their packed delegations, their free passes and their other notorious means of besmearing the ermine of the State with fulsome railroad machine grease. There never was atime when the dual role of railroad attorney and Democratic committee boss was assumed more offen- sively or used more scandalously to the disgrace and degradation of Missouri De- mocracy than it is now. It named at Seda- lia the delegation it discredited at Chicago. It openly tried to name the Court of Ap- peals nominee at Hannibal and was beaten only bya slight accidental break in the railroad ranks. Ithas been notoriously active and scandalously successful in packing delegations for the convention which meets in this city next Wednesday, and we fear that Gov. CRITTENDEN’S letter coines too late for any decisive effect upon that body. We doubt if any Democrat in that con- vention will have the nerve to talk out against the party’s proclaimed and scep- tered railroad bosses as Gov. CRITTENDEN does. Asa straight-ticket Democrat his anxiety about the nomination is naturally keener than ours. The Post-DIsPATCH belongs to the people and will do its duty to them till the day of the election, un- silenced by the action of any party con- vention. —, n RRR — = THE UNDERSTANDING FEMINIZE. In an address delivered before the Lon- | don Medical Society recently Sir JAMEs CRICHTON BROWN, a very high authority. deplored the intellectual activity of women and inveighed against the cultiva- tion by women of studies heretofore mo- nopolized by the sturdier sex. He dwelt on structural differences in the brain and pointed to the well-know? fact that the female brain was smaller than the male, A strenuous objection was made to putting upon women an intellectual strain which they were unable to bear. All this is very familiar but musty in- formation. The fight for education has been fought and won by women who have practically all the advantages they want in that respect. Ignoring the structural weaknessés of their small brains they have boldly assumed intellectual burdens and have not, so faras is known, suffered much from the strain. 80 far as their in- tellectual capabilities are concerned it ap- pears that women are fully equal to men. But these objections which have been sent to the lumber-room whereold blun- ders are stored and which are brought out now and then only by hopeless Philistines, are really beside the question, at least in Democratic countries. The objective point of Democracy is in- dividual liberty. So far as it is true to itself it takes no heed of sex. E knows only the person and its mission is to ex- pand the sphere of individual activity and develop personality—whether of man or woman. In making their fight for greater opportunities and an enlarged world women have exhibited the true Democratic instinct. And their victory is one of the most important ever won by civilization over stupidity and prejudice, They -are now in possession of a free field where they ean run the race of life and win or lose on their merits. Of course, it does not fol- low that to run this race a | must be mannish. The world of — is varied, and in tis room for all sorts of | talent. There is no good reason why women should not dwell in it if they like ande in its struggle. To think is one of their rights, grounded in Demo- cratic principles. If most women fail to realize the fairest possibilities of the in- tellectyal lite, that is no reason why they should not be allowed to try. Most men fail, probably from the same cause— structural weakness of the brain. The Understanding Feminine isa useful ele- ment in thought. May be it is necessary, if humanity is to reach its highest possible development and slough off all traces of its prehensile origin, Let the women think; or let them try, at least. A GOOD EXAMPLE FROM ENGLAND. The British Parliament has been dis- already out. The seventh Victorian Par- liament holds its last sitting in the last week in June, The eighth will assemble probably in the last week in July. This is as it should be. The new body having received its mandate will imme- diately organize to obey it. The will of the people isat once honored and their representatives, fresh from popular con- ferences, undertake their duties without delay. It is a feature of British political practice which might be adoptedin America with good effect. In 1890 the people by an over- whelming majority ordered the reversal of the policy of the Fifty-second Congress. Notwithstanding this that Congress reas- sembled four weeks after election and con- tinued a species of legislation which had been emphatically condemned. This is not democracy. It is not popular government. It enables a beaten minority to recover its wind and its spirit and dampens the ardor of a victorious majority flushed with victory. One year elapsed before the meeting af the Democratic Con- gress, The consequence was that many of the majority got out of touch with the people and forgot what they were there for, A Congress should assemble within three months after élection. It will then ac- curately respond to popular demands and be truly a representative body. A reform in this direction is sorely needed and can be easily brought about. It can hardly become a partisan question, Nothing can be urged against it and the interest of all parties demands it. The only thing that can be said in opposition is that the hated English use it, but it is not likely that even the noisiest ji, go would venture to father such an objection. Last March Attorney-General MILLER announced that the Department of Justice was collecting evidence against the Chi- cago Beef Combine on which to base a prosecution under the anti-trust law. Nobody questions that this combine isa violation of the law, and had the Depart- ment used the evidence a case could proba- bly have been made, Nothing was done, héwever, and now the legal agent of the combine is directing the Republican can- vass, trying to re-elect to an ex- ecutive office the man who did not execute the law. Two years ago Mr. HARRISON refused to appoint Mr. CAMPBELL to a federal office on the ground that he was a professional lobbyist and en- gaged in enterprises inimical to the public interest. But the necessities of the situa- tion are very strenuous. The ‘‘Big Four’’ has a lot of money and they are willing to contribute some of it to that campaign fund. Whatdothey get in return? Im- munity. These law-breakers through their agent, are bossing the Republican campaign presumably with the under- standing that should Mr. HARRISON be elected they are to be allowed to ignore the law. It looks as if the Elder were engaged in an enterprise inimical to the oe 7 interest. . EE —— — ANDREW CARNEGIE, who is now sum- mering in Scotland, was once a poor man. Being gifted with more than usual astute- ness he set about to better his condition, like other poor men, but instead of follow- ing the biblical injunction and earning his bread in the sweat of his brow, he got a few privileges from a too generous govern- ment which enabled him to travel the royal road to riches. These priv- ileges were of enormous value. By means of them he increased his wealth from noth- ing to , 000, 000. They also enabled him to increase the wages of his employes, but strange to say he did not dothis. Instead he bought a castle in Scotland and built palace and a fortress in Pennsylvania. He is now trying to reduce wages in order to make a heavy contribution to the cam- paign fund of the Republican party, which promises him still more privileges in the event of success. This is the whole phi- losophy of ANDREW CARNEGIE and every other man who has grown fich at the ex- pense of the American people. . nn SHOULD neither presidential candidate receive a majority of the electoral votes at the next election and Congress be called upon to settle it. a curious sithation will arise, Provision was made in the Consti- tution against taking both President and Vice-President from the same State, but it restrains only the electors.

The President then appointed Gen. Fosrmr, who is most distasteful to the opposition, to BLAINE’S place. The situation is de- lightful — a Democratic standpoint. — 96 — THE Government is prosecuting the lum- ber combine for raising the price of lumber 50 cents per 1,000 feet.

FIGHT shy of the load to-morrow, r —— The Real Issue. From the New York WORLD. Neither party could escape the tariff issue ifit would. Neither has shown any disposi- tion to do 80. The candidates and the record of the two parties make up the issue. Read Grover Cleveland's messages and let- ters and you will know the kind of tariff re- form he favors. , Look atthe McKinley act, which President Harrison signed, and you will know the kind of protection“ he favors. Each candidate is his own platform on this question. The Democratic newspapers, speakers and conventions have steadfastly condemned the worse-than-war-tariff enacted by the Repub- lican Congress, The voters of the country have twice sustained them. The present ap- peal, as the Wortp has said, is simply to have the judgment affirmed. Neither the resurrected old free trade“ bugaboo on one side nor the iridescent dreams of idealists on the other will divert the voters from the real issue. The Issue lies in the record of the parties and in the character and sentiments of the candidates. And it is upon this that the WORLD bases its confident assurance that— The next President will be a Democrat. A High, Independent Tribute, From the Philadeiphia Ledger (Rep.). The ex- President has proved his invincible fidelity to principles, and his countrymen not ouly honor a bravo and honest man—they love him. As Sheriff, Mayor, Governor, President he did not discriminate between private obligations and public duties. He had, in private and official life, but a single code of morals. When, in 1887,he threw his famous tariff-reform message before the country, it was a challenge to the thought of the nation, He compelled it to considera theory by presenting it as a condition. The majority did not agree with him, nor do we believe they do now, but they admirea him, as they do now, forthe courage of his con- victions, for his negation of self, as in throw- ing down his challenge to the country he threw .away his almost certain chance of being re-elected in 183g President of the United States.

From the Albany Times-Union. The peculiar name of our excellent candi- date for Vice-President is Hebrew, and may be found in the twesty-ninth verse of the twenty-seventh chapter of the First Book of the Chronicles: And over the herds that fed in Sharon was Shitrai the Sharonite; and over the herds that were in the valleys was Shaphat, the son of Adial.’’ The Adial mentioned in the Chronicies flourished about 1014 years before Ohrist. The meaning of the name Is differently stated by different writers. McClintock and Strong say that Adlai means the Just, but Sophy moody, in her popular account of the mean- ings and derivations of Christian names, puts Adial in the group of names signifi- cant of preciqusness, and says that it means My ornament.’’ As to pro- nunciation, Walker, in his rules for the pro- nunciation of Scripture proper names, marks Adlai as a word of three syllables, thus, Ad- la -I. It is ta be noten, however, that in the Latin Vulgate the name is spelled as a word of only two syllables, not Adlai but Adi: ‘*Porro armentis, qum pascebantur in Saton, prewpositus fuit Setrai Saronites: et super boves in vallibus Saphat fillus Adlt.’’ Moreri spells the name either Adlai or Had- lai, and puts a di@resis over the last vowel, to indicate that the name is to be pronounced in three syllables. In a campaign of education it is important that everybody should learn the names of the candidates and how to pronounce them. That Special Jury Law. From the Johnson County Union. As many who read the platform of the Peo- ple’s party adopted at Sedalia may not un- derstand what thé special jury law is, which that platform condemns, we deem it proper to explain, It isa law wpereby corporations, upon depositing $75, can demand and obtain jurors composed exclusively of officials and stockholders of similar corporations to them- selves in the trials of causes brought against them by farmers and laborers. The House of Representatives of the Jast General Assembly, three-fourths of its mem- bers being farmers, passed an act repealing this iniquitous special jury law by an almost unanimous vote, but said repealing statute was defeated by the attorneys, lobbyists and representatives of the corporations compos- ing the State Senate, In our present campaign we should demand that every candidate for either branch of the coming Geperal Assembly shall define his position on this and all similar measures. Why should a deposit of $75 grant corpora- tions a privilege which is crushing to the people? Not a Holiday Excursion. From Fassett’s Speech, We all feel that we are entering on no holi- day excursion; that we are entering upona contest which. will put\to his best mettle every Republican inthe United States. We are confronted at the outstart with the ap- palling spectacle of Wisconsin and Illinois in the list of doubtful States, and Iowa by no means certain; with religious differences rife in the Northwest and a threatened coalition of Democracy with the Alliance. The Demo- crats have nominated, to my mind, the strongest man they could have placed in the fleld, especially so far as the thirty-six elec- toral votes in New York are concerned, From Gen, Clarkson’s Speech. We are entering on a campaign which is no holiday excursion. The Democrats have nominated their strongest man, and, while the situation is desperate, every Republican who ts really a Republican will do everything in his power to win the fight in November. No Weak Point. From the Philadelphia Record. From the Democratic point of view there is no weak point in this Cleveland and Steven- It will please the independent voters who have full faith in Mr. Cleveland’s fairness and his firmness, approaching temerity,in the conscientious discharge of the publicduties laid upon hin.

It will delight the millions of Democrats who believe in meeting the enemy upon open ground, with no disguises or res- ervations.

The country has had enough and more than enough of Baby McKee and Baby Ruth and Baby Dorothy and all the rest of the infants belonging to Harrison, Cleveland, Whitney and other distinguished families. We have been surfeited with long and maudlin narra- tives of Baby McKee’s new trousers and little Ruth Cleveland's precocious tooth. In the name of decency and common sense let us have done with this melancholy foolishness and return to the ways of dignity. This isa great national campaign, not a baby ghow. “They Dare Not Deny.”’ From the Springfield Demoerat. The st. Louis Pust-DIsPpaTtcon says: At Judge Sherwooda’s friends intend to attempt an answer to the statement that he is under the thumb of the railroad ring they must do so before the convention meets.

THE PEOPLE’S FORUM. [No matter written on goth sides of the sheet can appear under this head.—Ep. | The Married Lady Teacher Question. To the Editor of the Post- Dignatch: The people of St. Louls ought to applaud President Bartholdt, Chairman McEntire and the other members of the Teachers Commit- tee, who vot6d forthe dismissal of married school teachers. A married woman does not belong to public life. She belongs first to her husband, second to her children, and last, but not least, to her domestic duties. I cannot see why a married woman should leave her husband and her children to the care of the servant girl in order to teach and train the children of others, We have here in St. Louls a great number of bright and able young ladies, who have no well-to-de husband to su them, who are poneias for a position which will — pe them 1 their, in many cases, AM. nts 2 t sacrifices of their purses 15 these long and weary A of study. gta is an- — 4 other reason w cannot well discussed, but which no man or woman 1 the proper feeling in regard to ney can deny, which’ also loudly speaks for the dis- missal of married female chers.

The words were a 05 jutely unintelligible. Now this is not, I am sorry to say, an exceptional case. According to my experience—which is a rather large one—at least four-fftis of our moderff sing- ing, sacred and secular, is unintelligible. More often than otherwise I hear familiar hymns which, if I did not know them by heart, would be to me ‘‘mere soundand fury, signifying nothing.’’ Asfor songs and bal jads rendered in fashionable style, I have practically ceased to listen to them, unless as an exhibition of vocal gymnastics. The words have no meaning for the good and and sufficient reason that I cannot under- stand them. If some of these murderers of musical English could only have heard in- comparable Parepa sing an English ballad! Every word was as clear and distinct as if spoken by a trained speaker. No cutting or clipping or mouthing, or slip-shod running together, but perfectly intelligible pronun- clation from beginning to end. And have a young friend, the owner of a fine contralto, who follows the Parepa method, and whose singing is therefore a de- lightful treat to me. Whether it be oratorio, hymn or ballad the words are given as faithfully as the music to which they are set. She feels them and she makes you feelthem; and what are musical words for if not tobe understood and felt? After hearing such provoking performances as that at the funeral, to hear my friend sing, Ie Was a Man of Sorrows and Acquainted With Grief,’’or ‘‘Ashamed of Jesus, is like pass - ing out of dense darkness into glorious light.

Are Atral to Ki) It ana Don’t Want to Paes It—Various Devices Sug- | gested for Putting Off a Final Vote— ö The President's One Chance — Secre- | tary Noble Rebukes Raum. ‘wiesurnevent, p. OC. , July.2.—The free sil- Ver bill came over to the House this morning with the approvalofthe Senate, The man- of the House now find themselves con- tea by a very serious embarrassment. — they have to meet is one which are not prepared for, and in balancing the advantages and disadvantages they are required to make a very complicated calcu- lation and some very nice discrimination. The mass of the Democrats in the House are glad of a chance to vote on the bill, feeling more interest in their own affairs at home than in the broader question of the effect upon the country at large. But the managers feeling a responsibility for the welfare of the National party are in an uneasy frame of mind. The chances favor the passage of the bill by the House. Quite a number of these Democrats who opposed the passage of the Bland bill during the early part of the session, not desiring the House to take the initiative, now of the opinion that the best thing to under the present circumstances is to pass Stewart bill, All views on the subject at his time, however, are subject to revision, as opinions have been formed hastily. The conditions are now very different from those controlling when the Bland bill was under NO pop. The members from the silver districts are now face to face with the question in such an attitude as not toadmitofany dodging. The only offset is the fact that the Democratic platform squints de- cidedly against free coinage at the present ratio. This opens an opportunity which some of the anti-silver men expect to avail themselves of for an effort to amend the bill so as to change the ratio. This move, however, is apt to meet with fallure and the chief rei- ance of the anti-silver men is in the difficulty at this late day to get a quorum either of the committee or the House. They think it will be particularly diMeult to get a quorum of the Committee on Coinage, to which the bill wlll have to be referred. If the Republicans a body would join with the anti-silver mocrats in an effort to break a quorum in the House they might succeed, but there isa possibility that, for political reasons, the Re- publicans may not join in this movement. There is an impression that President Har- rison, concluding that the public may not be euficiently discriminating to fix the res ponst- bility for the passage of the bill through the Senate, where it belongs, but may in a gen- eral way credit it to the Republican Senate, will want an opportunity to veto the bill so asto give emphasis to his position. If the President should take this view of the matter the Republicans in the House who are op- posed to the bill will content themselves with voting against it, and will not join a filibus- ter. NOT CONFIDENT. The anti-silver Democrats are not all confi- dent at this time that they can defeat the bill, but they are determined to do 80 if pos- sible, and determination is better than con- fidence in such an emergency. The bill will go to the Committee on Colnage,and there an attempt will be made to break a quorum and delay the report. This falling, an effort will be made to amend, as an amendment would kill the bill as effectually asa negative majority vote. Mr. Johnson, a member of the committee, proposes to offer an amendment restricting the coinage to the product of the American mines and various other amendments will be offered. When the committee reports the bili back to the House they will ask the Com- mittee on Rules to report a special order, x- ing a time for its consideration. The proba- bilities are that the Committee on Rules will Make such report and that it will not include any cloture rules. if the bill once gets before the House, and there is nothing more probable, there will be avery lively fight. And if there is a vigorous and persistent filibuster the chances are that A majority of the Democrats will sign a peti- tion fora cloture rule. If they do at the proper time the Committee on Kules will re- port a cloture. CLEVELAND COULD sror IT. The one thing that might stop this would De for Mr. Cleveland to make some public utterance on the subject, which would be in the nature ofa command tothe party. Even this might make matters worse by exciting hot blood and getting the party in a bad tangle. The sulver men say that they have assurances of 120 signatures toa petition for cloture if it becomes necessary to resort to them. Tracy said to-day thatit was not possible to say now what the outcome would be. The @nti-silver men would meet one situation at atime, he said, and their fight would first be in the committee. He thought the bill would be donated, but it might be that some men who opposed the passage of a free coinage bill originally. might vote for this bill under the changed conditions. This was among the possibilities, but he expected the failure of the bill. Mr. Pierce said that the Dill was bound to pass and thatif it were filibustered against, the silver men would not let appropriation bills or anything else go through the house until there was a vote on the silver bill, Mr. Williams of Massachusetts, on the other hand, says that the bill will be de- feated if all legislation besides has to be stopped to accomplish it, — COMMISSIONER RAUM.

New YORK, July 2.—That the lack of har- mony is one of the chief faults of the New York team this year, is certain. The events ofthe past week show conclusively that the happy family condition does not prevail among the pjayers. Buck Ewing does not get along any too well with his com- panions. Jealousy may be the cause, but whatever it is, the Captain does not enjoy the respect and friendship so necessary to good results in the League race. Early in the season it was rumored that Ewing had charged Bassett with exerting a harm- ful infimence over Rusie and that he was leading the big Hoosier pitcher into drinking habits. Ewing denied this at tne time, but the incident intensified the feeling ofunpleasantness between the two men, Bassett claims that he has been a marked man since then and wanted several times to take personal satisfaction out of Ewing. But the other players urged him not to do so, as long as he was a mem- ber of the New York team. When he got his ten days® notice from Manager Powers recently, Bassett made up his mind to got tle his score with Ewing at the first opportunity. The story goes that the men met at a tent show in Harlem Mon- day night. Bassettapproached Ewing, who dia not defend himseif. Then Bassett hit him a clip over the eye that almost sent him to grass. Ewing retaliated with his umbrella, and then it is said turned tall and ran. The result was a nun- clal loss to Bassett. He received a letter from Powers the next day in which he was notified that he was fin to the amount of his ten days’ pay, $150. Manager Pow- ers further stated that Bassett should consider himself luck to t of 80 easy. The proper punishment, he said, was suspension fromthe League — . Bassett did not go over to Eastern Park Tuesday put decided to do so the following day. was the day that Ewing sent word that he was too sick to play. Ihe Louisville, Balti. more and Washing on clubs bave made offers for Bassett’s services. He will probably accept the terms of the first named. Jeff Storts Fined. Hon. Jeff Storts appeared in Judge Morris’ court yesterday afternoon to defend William De Yung, who was arrested on the charge of interfering with an officer while out driving on LInden boulevard last Sunday.

IABERTY, Mo., July 2.—Mass conventions to nominate delegates to the State Convention at Jefferson City and the Judicial Convention at St. Louls were held in this (Clay) county to-day. The following delegates were selected for the State Convention: L. W. Pence, Wm. Clark, John Watkins, Thomas Warnall, John Williams, George Walter and Samuel Greenfield. Three of these are for Gibson, two for Stone and two for Dalton, and it 18 thought that two are for Stevens, four for Pitts and one for Gentry. These are all the delegates for the State convention. This township elected Senator Simroll and Judge Fowler to the judicial convention and they are for Thomas McFariane and Hall, and itis thought that these candidates will receive the votes of the other townships. The convention here adopted resolutions praising the ad- ministration of Seibert and Lesseuer. Quitea lively time was had here to-day between the Stone and Yeamen men Yeaman’s delegates received a good vote, but not enough to elect. The Yeaman men forced a coalition with the Stone men, but it was not strong enough to elect the Yeatman delegate. K. ane received the full vote of the county for —— RA and Theodore K.

BLOOMINGTON, III., July 2.—McClean County Democrats had to-night set apart for the evening to properly ratify the nomination of Cleveland and Stevenson, but the elements were against them and the city is drenched with rain. However, it was not the inten tion to allow rain to quench the mammoth blaze of enthusiasm which had been growing since the nomination of Gen. A. E. Stevenson for Vice-President. The crowd was taken to the Grand Opera- house, where the event took place. The Third Regiment band furnished the music, after which Hon. John Eddy, one of the celebrated 101 of the lliinois Legislature that elected Senator John M. mer, int uced Hon. James 8. Ewing to deliver an address. Mr. Ewing is Gen. A. EK. Stevenson’s law partner, and his speech was full of thought for Republicans to nder over. It was short, but er- ve. He compared the Minneapolis plat- form with the one recentiy adopted at 91 and said that never in twenty-five us the issue been so plain and short tween the two great parties as this year. After devoting considerable time to the sil- ver question he spoke — grad on the force bill, saying if the —— icans were success- ful in Novembe they would follow the dictation of the leaders and pass a force bill which. as a law, would turn the hand of time Dack twenty- -five years. He regarded the force bill as the most im- portant issue of the campaign. Following Mr. Ewing were Chas. L. Capen, John F. Wright and several others, making inspiring speeches. Gen. Stevenson had con- sented to be presented at the ratification to- night, and during Mr. Ewing’s speech ap red upon the stage. The — of enthusiasm abounded, and the immense audience sounded cheer aftercheer. When the cheering ceased Hon. John Eddy intro- duced the next Vice-President of the United States. Mr. Stevenson delivers a Fourth of July oration at Peorla Monday. He will leave Bloomington on an early train Monday morn- ing, and will be accompanied by his youngest daughter, Miss Letitia.

A marvellous beautiſier of world-wide celebrity, it is simply incomparable as a skin-purifying soap, unequalled for the toilet, and without a rival for the nursery, Absolutely pure, delicately medicated, ex- quisitely perfumed, it produces the whitest, clearest skin, and softest hands, and prevents inflammation and clogging of the pores, the cause of pimples, black- heads, red and oily skin, dry, thin, and falling hair. CUTICURA SOAP Derives its remarkable medicinal properties from Curicura, the great skin cure, but so delicately are they blended with the purest of toilet and nursery | soap stocks that the result is a medicated toilet soap incomparably superior to all other skin and complexion soaps, while rivalling in delicacy and surpassing in purity the most expensive of toilet soaps.

INTERESTING CONTESTS ON FETE DAYS IN THE CAUCASUS. Special Correspondence SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. Tirrrs, June 2.—The tourist who files on wings of steel through the wildly romantic provinces of the Caucasus, boarding the train at Batum and making short stops only at the principal stations, is in error when he thinks that he gathers during such a journey the proper ideas of this wonderful land and its people. To find the genuine semi- savage folk of the Caucasus one must deviate from the broad thoroughfare made by European civilization and go in quest of regions which this all- powerful mistress has not yet penetrated— the Imerithian and Mingrelian highlands, for ) example. It is not an easy matter to undertake such an expedition alone, for the native looks upon the stranger as an unwelcome invader, Feats of Horsemanship. while the Russian official scents in every newcomer a Prussian officer in disguise, who comes in the innocent garb of a t ist to make observations of the primitive condl- tions, to draw charts and plans, and to dis- cover things which do not concern bim. But all these obstacles are removed when the friendship of one or the other influential chieftain, lately ‘‘russified’’ into Kniaz (prince), can be enlisted to pave the way for the guest of the kniaz.’’ The most respected law in the Caucasus is that of hospitality. Although the princes themselves have been thoroughly won over to European manners and customs, a visit to one of their strongholds is neverthe- less one of the most interesting episodes of such a journey, for the tribes over which they rule are still the savage children of a savage land, and the smali-fry noblemen who flock around the summer residence of the Prince of Mingrelia, for example, are more like the Scottish chiefs with which Sir Walter Scott has made us familiar, and their exist- ence is the counterpart almost of that of the Knights of the middle ages, whose daily occu- pation comprised the chase, sport, wild or- gies, dancing, singing and the playing of all kind of games with an occasional sallie into the neighbor’s preserves which happens to contain a couple of horses for which it is worth while to risk a bullet or two. The tournaments are the prime source of amusement for these small noblemen and they are the equal ofany circus performance ofour day. Each tournament as a rule be- gins, which is not without its dangers, for the reason that all sorts of artifices by which favorites may be helped to victory—prohib- ited by the rules which govern our race tracks—are permissible there. Those most interested, either through betting or frtend- ship, lle in ambush to frightena rival horse which is in the lead by waving flags and banners in its face or firing off pistols to give the favorite a lift. The breaking of a leg or an arm on the partof the riders is a daily calamity and the race horses are trained with a view of making them familiar with all such interruptions and obstacles they meet on the track. Whenthe race is over the tournament proper and the games begin. Each participant seeks to outdo his contestants in wonderful featsof audacity. Here some Mingrelian chieftain dashes along in a wild canter, suddenly bending way down to lift from the ground a fur cap or some fair one’s bashlik. Another throws his cocked carbine into the air, catches it as it comes down, and fires as he rides tothe finish. } ere st aration rage A. * f . — ach wo a ult Nee — day — withons —— 4 — — — —— riceless troys the wens rincip an utter en Bot ep sf sii euarante cE a EEA your Bee 15 N GENERAL AGENTS> MANUFACTURERS OF TH v. .o Fun FAlLURe OR THE SLIGUTEST Ms. MODENE MANUFACTURING CO, 2 L, ‘ £ HIGHEST e | 75 9522 2 NEW GOODS!

He rejected the advice of Mr. Farwell and made bim mad. ‘‘I cannot see why Senator Far- well should go abroad for information easily obtainable at home, said this Democratic friend: ‘‘Joe Medi could have satisfied the ex-Senator’s curiosity, and no doubt would have been most happy to do so.

A SON’S TERRIBLE CRIME. J. T MeKenna, a Laundryman, Charged With Murdering His Mother. NE YorkK, July 2.—J. T. McKenna,a laun- dryman, living at 62 Grove street, s ar rested this morning on the charge of baving | Killed his mother. Until two weeks ago Mrs. lived with her son in Grove street. A woman of the name of Mary Wilson lived there with McKenna as his wife, according to the police. The mother, it is said, disapproved of her son,s manner of life and often suggested that he should marry the Wilson woman. On the night of June 19 old Mrs. McKenna fell down a fight of stairs and sustained serious injuries which brought about her death. Many of the neighbors thought she was thrown down, Three of them who lived in the same house, Mrs. Witte, Mrs. Sarah Conklin and Mary Delaney described the circumstances of Mrs. McKenna’s fall to the police of the Charles Street Station. They heard a noise on the night in question which sounded as if some one was slapping another person. Then they heard a fall. Mrs. Witte went out to the landing and saw the old woman, Mrs. McKenna, lyingina heap on the second floor landing. Mrs. Witte turned to McKenna and said: Do ou see what you have done, you brute.’’ is only reply was that she had better mind ber own business. Mrs. McKenna was quite badiy hurt. She re- mained where she lay for about twenty min- utes. Mrs. Witte then removed her to her rooms. The old woman groaned with pain all night long. When irs. Witte got up the next morning. bowever, she found Mrs. McKenna gone. Ihe old woman’s son said he did not know where his mother was. After a search Mrs. Witte finally found her in the basement. Her head was badly cut and she was evidently in great pain. As she was helped up the stairs she said: ‘‘Oh, Jimmie, you have killed me this time.“ When she reached her room she fellto the floorinafit and became unconscious. She was removed in an ambulance to St. Vincent’s Hospital where she died last Wednesday from a fractured skull. Her son James was arrested and arraigned to day in the Jefferson Market Police Court. He was taken from there to the Ooroner’s office when Coroner Levy committed him to the Tombs without bail to await the result of the inquest into his mother’s death, which will take place on next Tuesday afternoon. McKenna isa man of medium height and rather stout built. He wears a big red mustache. Itis said that his reputation is not good. McKenna THE MANTELLS. A Threatened Divorce Suit Against the Theatrical Star. New Von, July 2.—When Robert Mantell, the actor, and his wife agreed to disagree some time ago, the latter wanted to geta divorce, She claimed to have good cause on the statutory grounds. Mantel, it is said, rather than risk the reputation of various women mentioned by his wife and thinking it better to have a sim- ple separation, agreed to pay $75 a week towards the support of his wife if the pro- ceedings were dropped. His overtures were accepted and he paid the money regularly for a tong time. Lately, however, he has Qefaulted, so his wife says, and she nas asked her attorneys to cause the actor’s arrest unless he speedily makes good the amount he owes, which she says is $226. She states that tor three weeks past the money has not been 1 Mantell has had a prosperous season and theatrical people who pretend to know say that he cleared over $7,000 on his last season, Which closed four weeks ago. One ot the actor’s best friends said yester- day that Mantell bad no money at all, and that instead of making money he had lost. The news of his ~wife’s in- tention to sue him for divorce was a serious blow, declared this friend, ‘‘as he was passionately fond of her and his chil- dren. If he has any money he will pay it, and if he has not he will borrow it. Until the divorce proceedings were begun Mr. and Mrs. Mantell were considered a model couple. GLADSTONE’S GREETING. Thousands Welcome the Grand Old Man at’Edinbureh, Gitascaw, July 2.—Mr. Gladstone was greeted by an enormous audience when he appeared to-day at the Royal. He said that Ireland’s union with England was conceived in a spirit of utter hostility to Irish nationality. He re- garded with grief the union as it stood. The more liberty there was given to the Irish people, the less risk there would be of surrendering that liberty into the hands of the clerical power. His scheme was toput thelrish people upona footing of justice which would no longer give them motive for seeking force, but would enable them. to rest contented under a beneficient vernment and just laws. On driving hrough the streets just after his address, on his way to the station, Mr. 61 ne re- ceived an almost unprecedented ovation. Holton is Missing.

THE BEGINNING OF A BITTER STRUGGLE AT HOMESTEAD. The Iron Master Determined to Down the Amalgamated Association — Warlike Preparations at the Great Stee) Plant— Gune, Hot Water and Electricity for Defense. HOMESTEAD, Pa., July 2.—As Andrew Car- negie’s millions have increased from year to year, so have the wages of his employes de- creased. Every year Mr. Carnegie has tried to reduce wages. He has not always been successful, but he has never relaxed his efforts. The ideal protectionist, the man of millions, acquired through the workings of a high tariff on steel, is the foe of organized labor, because organized labor can and does keep the scale of wages ata living rate. Unorganized labor must work for what Mr. Carnegie offers to pay and if the scale is too low, it must submit. Andrew Carnegie is trying to break the back bone of the Amalgamated Association, and the present lock-out at Homestead is but the sequel to his attitude towards organized labof in the past. It is not a sentiment with Mr. Carnegie. it is nothing he has ever written a pamphlet about. On the contrary his published utter- ances have contained as many platitudes about the rights of workingmen to organize and the benefits to be derived from such or- ganizationas they have about the beni cent effect of the protective tar- if. But actions speak to the workmen t Homestead very much louder than ords. They realize now that Mr. Carnegie is a business man, not a theorist; that his admiration for the tariff, like his admira- tion for *‘co-operation,’’ is based on strictly business principles. The tariff is a toy to be manipulated as the master sees fit. A high tariffisthe rule, but here are times, according to Mr. Carnegte’s experience,when a low tariff on a single article, as steel billets for instance, can be made to inure to his benefit. THE GREAT STEEL PLANT. Last year the Carnegie company purchased the city farm of over one hundred acres, which was adjacent to the steel plant. The city will occupy it for one year longer, but it is claimed by the Carnegie com- pany already, and it has been sur- rounded by a high barbed wire fence, the same as that inclosing the steel plant. Abogt six weeks ago, in anticipation of the coming conflict between the Carnegie inter- ests and the workmen,a stout board fence, twelve feet high, was built upon a foundation of slag three feet high completely surround- ing the steel works. This fence is three miles long. On the top are sticking three strands of barbed ‘wire so connected thata current of electricity may be sent through them fromthe electric plant by the simple throwing of a switch in the office. Port- holes four inches in diameter have been loped along this fence at the height ofa man’seye. Trenches have been dug over all parts of the works to various points along the fences where hydrants are stationed; the connections have been made so that either cold or boiling hot water can be sent through these pipes to the hydrants. Hundreds of arc lights have been strungon bigh poles throughout the plant and along the fence, and on ali the buildings near the roadway search lights has been placed. Ra llroad tracks run between the ofice of the company and the _ fence surrounding the works near Munhalt station. An additional fence has been built about the office, anda bridge forty feet high bas Ween strung across the tracks connecting the office with a bullding inside the works. A search light has been placed upon this bridge; and also a sentry-box like those sur- rounding the walls at Sing Sing and other prisons. PHOTOGRAPHING RIOTERS. On the top ofa high wooden buliding which is near the office and the roadway, but inside the fence, a platform has been erected and preparations made for a graphic apparatus. This is use for instantaneous pictures the flash light processincase an attack made upon the office. These pictures could be an excellent means of identification should Mr. Carnegie’s representatives wish to lay a charge o riot or a more serious charge against the union workmen, CARNEGIE’S SINEWS OF WAR, ‘*Andrew Carnegie can afford to spend $1,000,000 in this struggle at Homestead,’’ said a Pittsburg iron man to the SUNDaY Posr- DISPATCH correspondent to-day. ‘‘If he de- feats the amalgamated association he can fix a rate of wages and maintain them for ten years. The prestige of a victory at Homestead will place him in a position to pay whatever he chooses to every one of his 20,000 employes. if he loses $1,000,0 0 before he beats the Homestead workmen he will _ still a gainer, because he can sit down at his desk and make $1,000,000 assessment upon all his different mills. Ihe amount can be paid ina year with Carnegie as the sole dictator of every man’s pay. The appointment of H. C. Frich, a recog- nized enemy of union labor, chair- man of the Carnegie Board, the curt declaration of the ultimatum to the amalgamated association the utter disregard ofallarbitration ideas previously enunciated by Andrew Carnegie and the his- tory of the fron master’s dealings with organized labor seem to bear out the as- sumption that the present condition of af- fairs at Homestead has been invited and wel- comed by Mr. Carnegie asa feudal baron of old would invite the malcontents on his es- tate to come up and be slaughtered, after studied preparations for the massacre. The feudal baron idea has been still further elab- oratea by Mr. Carnegie at his homestead in the fortification of his mill plant, and prepa- rations for both defensive and offensive war- fare. THE TRON MASTER’S TERMS. The American Manufacturer argues, first, that since the price of billets fell off from $25 to $28. the basis of pay ought to be reduced, basis was made so low three ago that the majority of men have scarcely made a living wages. The firm asks, secondly, a change of scale year termination from June to Decem- ber. We Insist on the June term, for if the mill is closed down the men canstand it bet- ter. and the heat makes it natural for mills to close in the summer. it is generally believed that the manufacturers are being thoroughly pressed by leading Republicans in other parts of the country to make terms with the workmen for the sake of the Ke- publican party. Congressman Robinson, president of the Pennsylvania State League of Republican Clubs, is quoted to-day as saying that he be- lieved the mill owners, who are the principal Kinley tariff, shouid do all they could to prevent a strike at this time. „It will have a dad effect upon the Republicans in the comi cam 4 0 said, if the abor tPoubles are allowed to continue the Gefeated this fall if is. a feeling of discontent the workingmen throughout the ry over the nomination of Whitelaw Reid, and if strikes are to prevail nothing will save the Republican party from defeat.

The steel mills of Andrew Carnegie remain closed to-night. It costs him many thousands of dollars every day. His Homestead plant is to shut down. He has not even repairers at work, 80 strong has proved the loyalty to the: Amalgemated Association of every one of the mill’s opera- tors. The desertion of even the machinists, riggers and heipers, the electrician and even the water boy has left the plant absolutely dead. A thousand men will be on picket duty after midnight and nearly three times as many more within five minutes call of the new signal whistle at every hour of the twen- ty-four. Nearly five thousand men are at Homestead to-day who do not live here and have no interest here except as comrades of the locked-out msn. They are recruits to the Homestead army of 4,600,and 5,000 more are at Pittsburg within an hour’s call. The Gov- ernment armor-plate works and the World’s Fair structural work cannot be finished -at any other of the Carnegie mills. Some of the orders for architectural beams have already been transferred to the Union Mills at Pittsburg, where Mr. Carnegie signed ascale in many points much higher than the old rate of wages at Homestead. RECRUITING WORKMEN. Mike Lynch, who commanded H. C. Frick’s bull dogs during the .great coke strike when the haltf-starved * labor ers were forced finally into submission, has been busily recruiting workmen in other cities. The 4,000 work- men were paid ort in full to-day. There was not the slightest disorde: in the town, 60 carefully is the plan ofcampaign being car- ried out. Every saloon in town will be closed to- night and to-morrow. ‘The Ad- visory Committee, which has Homestead under martiallaw, is resolved that no scenes of drunkenness or violence shall mar the town’s fair name. Every bar-room and ublic place has this notice on a huge black- ettered poster. No discussion of the wage question is allowed in this room. By order of the Advisory Committee. The former declaration of the company through its secretary that under no circum- stances Will trades unions be recognized in the operation of the Homestead Mill here- after was the topic of conversatioh. PRESIDENT WETHE. President Weyhe of the Amalgamated Asso- clation of Iron and Steel Workers said: We Knew all along that this would be the result of disagreement on the scale. I have no complaints to make in regard to this Homestead matter, what- ever action is necessary in the premises wiil be taken by the executive committee of the Association at Homestead, who have full charge of affairs there. If anything of a special or startling nature should occur the national officers will doubtless be consulted with, but this only when the committee deem it abso- lutely necessary. Lam glad to see that there is so much local sympathy at Home- stead shown for the workers, and also that there isan absence of disturbance tp mere. At Homestead the discussion was not 80 moderate as the statements of the head of the organization. **We were con- vinced from the beginning, said a leading member of the Advisory Committee of the Amalgamated Association, which isin charge of the fight to-day, that the fight was against us as an Organization. The differences in scales are not sufficient to cause suchafight. We will show the com- pany we are not so easily downed, and we are prepared to make a three-years’ fight if itis necessary. There is one thing certain and that is no new men can come in and take our places. NOT FRIGHTENED. It is true that the P. McK. & Y. Ralroad runs through the property of the Carnegie Company but should they attempt to bring in new men it would be an easy matter to go into the yards and tear down that sixty foot platform. It will not scare us to talk about ordering out the militia. I know the company are exceedingly anxious that their works resume operations, and it is natural that they should, but they must recognize us before a stroke of. business is done by the plant.“ THE BARRACKS. Alongside the tracks of the Pee Mickie“ railroad, near where it enters the works from the river, an elevated platform has been erected and alongside of it a large building to be used asa barracks. It is evidently in- tended to land the imported workmen here. On the river front the Garnegie steel launch Annie bas been fitted out as a war ship with swivel guns and several flat boats have been equipped with small howitzers and search lights. The company has railroad tracks running all through its yards and its own rolling stock. Several flat cars have been loaded up with huge water-tanks and pumps and the Dinky“ engines also carry powerful pumps. The men at the Homestead have not yet ‘decided whether the portholes in the barbed wire fence are intended for Pinkerton detectives’ guns or streams of hot water. It is generally beileved that they will be used forboth. Thereis talk of torpe- does in trenches and of various other warlike preparations which the Carnegie pedple are making, but the men believe that electricity and hot water are relied upon as the best defences of Fort Frick,“ as the steel plant is ‘called now. Some of the workmen hanged Chairman Frick in effigy the day before the works shut down. When Private Secretary Dinkey cut down the ridiculous looking dummy with an American flag in his stift wooden hand the men turned the hoseon the pair. ‘The powerful stream of water knocked Dinkey down and sent the dummy flying. RIOTS AT MADRID. Costermongers Resist a New Tax—Troops Called Out. MADRID, July 2.—This city is in a state of anarchy and confusion, Most direful threats and attempts have been made to createa panic and cause a disruption of governmental control in the city. In addition to the la bor troubles that have agitated the district for the past few weeks,anew uprising oc- curred to-day in a strike of costermongers, which began at 8 o’clock this morning and which is likely to be much more serious than the . obscurity of participants would waggest. Inis strike is attributed toa new tax that has been im- posed by the municipality upon this class of workers, affecting a considerable portion oftheir income. At an early hour this morning these coster- mongers gathered in various public places and energetically discussed the grievances which to complain , of. 8 a most violent Anarchist déeseription were made, and very quickly almost every auditor brought from some concealment a red ard black flag which were waved in the air an huzzas were given. for rpetuation of Liberty. After this display of insubordin- ation the strikers marched in ap orderly body toward the Central Market place, shouting in loud tones: ‘‘Down with taxation! Long live the people!“ Delegates have been sent to the Governor to inform that dignitarv that several conflicts between the people and the police have taken place. The-military was then ordered out and the rioters charged, with the result that the disturbers were effectually dispersed, Margaret Mather Divorced.

Among The Champion's Antique the Shinnetock Hills. BAYHEAD, L. I., July 2.— The good people ot this picturesque village are preparing to celebrate two important events—the anni- versary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the arrival in t midst of the champion pugilist, J L. Sullivan. With the true spirit of patriotism they always observe the Fourth, but the coming of the mighty pugil- ist right on top of this holiday has set the folks thinking as to how they can ao justice to both. Tuesday promises to be as great a day as Monday and the youngsters will dream to-night of the heaps of fun in store for them. Many a boy has made up his mind to fire off half of his ‘‘shoocin’ crackers’’ on the Fourth and save the other half until John L. and his trainers get here. The whole place is on the tip toe of expectancy. Everybody has drawn a mind picture of Sullivan and everybody Is waiting to see what he looks like in reality. As far as is known only one man in the vil- lage has ever set eyes on John L. This fortu- nate person is vim Crook, a good-natured fellow from Tipperary, who makes himself useful about Canoe Place Inn, where Sullivan and his trainers will live until Sept. 1, and Jim isn’t positive that it was really Sullivan. He caught a glimpse ofa big man in a car- riage one day in Brooklyn and somebody told him it was the champion. This makes little difference, however, for Jim’s description of the man he saw has been Listened to with al- most breatbless interest by the natives. Di- rectly across the road from the inn stands a tall fag-pole. At its base Is a remarkably well executed piece of wood carving in the shape of a gigantic half image of Hercules. It was formerly the figurehead of the trigate Ohio, the bulk of which was broken up some years ago in Greenport. The figure measures six feet from the wrist up and the shoulders are more than four feet broad. Jim stood in front of this image to-day and gavea WORLD reporter his idea of Sullivan’s proportions. To southeast the Shinnecock Hills appear, and directly behind ‘‘Uncle Ned's“ inn is an elevation which looks over Peconic Bay, a sheet of water quite as picturesque as the one to the northward. You are a Iittle nore than a mile away from Bay- head Station when you reach the image of Hercules. Coming here the roads are sandy and decidedly notas good walking as the lanes which are encountered egst of the inn. Sullivan can have plenty of exer- cise over the hills, however, and on the road leading to some harbor. Inside the tavern everything is antique. The floors and ceilings are of hard, polished wood, and Mr. Mumby has furnished the rooms in — century style. There is an air o comfort about the whole place. Everything is in apple pie order and not a speck of dust can be seen anywhere. Up stairs the neatness of the host is more than ever noticeable. The apart- ments are as clean as wax. John’s room—it is already called his room—is directly over the cafe in the modern win of the inn. From his front windows the cham- pion can get a good view of Shin- necock Bay. But from the other one the view is scarcely as interesting. The furniture is a triſle more elegant than might looked for in a country hotel. Sullivan will be pleased with the quarters his manager has selected. Phil Casey will sleep across the hall from his charge and Ashton may select one of three rooms on the same floor. John’s Japanese valet bas also been well provided for. There are twenty other apartments in the house. John- son and Manager Frank Moran will provably engage quarters forthe summer. Proprietor Mumby’s big wagon house will be convert- ed inte a -gymnasium and a ne one it will make. A handsome court will be fitted up in one of the other buildings. Taken altogether, itis just the place for John to train. There may be prettier spots in the United States, but it would require a long search to find them. John L. Sullivan continued his hand- ball practice at Trainer Phil Casey’s court in Brooklyn yes- terday. The exercise he has taken during the 22 three days has done John a world of good, and he will start for Good Ground Tuesday feeling 50 per cent stronger than when he began training for his fight with Kilrain. He has no whishkers loike that, Jim be- gan ina most peculiar dialect, ‘‘but Sooll- van’s chisht is as large again as the Oidol's there. In me toimeoive sane manny a foine mon, but Ssoolivan an me brother Tat, that's now at home, are the foinest men in the wurld; that statoo looks foine, but it wouldn’tin comparishon with the man Ofve mintioned. Take the both av thim together and oi think upon me wurd that Soolivan ud be a baby in me brother Pat’s hands.“ Lour brother must be a wonderful man, Is he a fighter?’’ eit 's not a foighter he is, but rashler an’ the besht wan in the Imerald Oille. At foightin’ John L. cud bate him, but at rashlin’ he'd have no show. Soo- livan is a great foightin’ man, and Olle lay twinty dolls now. so oi will, that he’ll beat Corbett in faifteen rounds, and Oji’m ondly a man working fora day’s pay. Ac- cording to Jim’s description Sullivan is about eleven feet tall and the l ight-bearted fellow has told nearly everybody how John L. looks as compared with the image. The people expect to see a veritable ant. Uncle Ned’’ Mumby, proprietor of the Canoe Place Inn was the mark at which a volley of questions were fired at the Post-office to-day. Ihe towns people wanted to know exactly when he was coming, and whether or not Corbett was his neighbors party would arrive on Tuesday. He hada letter from Charles Jobnson to this effect: ‘‘Mine host is 68 8 old but he doesn’t look a day over 30. he resemblance he bears to James G. Blaine is striking. It is now nearly a year since Mr. Mumby came into ~possession of the quaint old Inn, and the property has been improved to no small extent during this time. Ihe inn proper has been in existence for nobody Knows how long. Some say it was built 20 years ago, dut the records show that this is stretched about forty years. At any rate it was put up to stay and the more recent ad- ditions to the original inn have been built to correspond with itin style. It is two stories high and looks on Shinnecevck Bay through a row of ancient milbre trees. The slips from which these trees grew came from the Island or St. Helena, according to the traditions of the place. Wherever they came from they are cer- tainly a great protection against the hot rays ofthe sun. There is always a breeze blowing from the bay and it is only a rare occasion that a light overcoat is uncomfortable in the evening. BUZZARDS’ BAY. Preparations to Celebrate the Glorious Fourth of July. BuZZARDS’ Bay, Mass., July 2.—There was a great rush of excursionists to the upper shores of Buzzards’ Bay to-day, in the hope of obtaining a glimpse of Grover Cleveland and this family. But Mr. Cleveland took to sea in his fishing craft and Mrs. Cleveland eluded the sight-seers by her customary afternoon drive around to Joe Jefferson’s. At the latter place an entertainment was given to-night for a local charity benefit. Richard Watson Gilder of the C was among the arrivals to-day. The © nds, Jeffersons and Mr. Gilder’s family are expected toarrive to-morrow and prepara- tions are being made for a demonstration on Monday. A large quantity of freworks have arrived from New York and at Buttermilk Bay there will be boat racing and picnic sports day and 1 at night. erson bas char The Oe CuIcaco, M., July 2.—Caarles W.

A Revolution in Spanish Honduras, and an Outrage on an American Ship. NEw ORLEANS, La., July 2.—The American steamer Prof. Morse arrived from Ceiba, Spanish Honduras, this morning and brought information of a successful revolution in progress there. It was started by Col. L. Nulia, Commander of the port of Ceiba at Boon Thursday, June 23. Insurrectionists took possession of the city and Oustom- house, in which was secured $4,500 In American gold coin and 123,000 sols. Don Henrigo Argueta, administrator of this port and brother-in-law of the American Consul- General Burchard of Ruatan, fied in the direction of Yaruccay but was captared next day. Nulla boarded and took the American Steamer Joseph Oteri, Jr., belonging to 8. and J. Oteri of New Orleans, which was in harbor, seizing 250 stands of arms and am- munition consigned to the Government. Subduing the officers and crew, he ran the Oteri to Truxillo, accompanied by a small flotilla of armed boats. Truxillo surren- dered without firing a shot, There was a ball in progress at Crespo Hotel, Truxillo, it being St. John’s Day, and Gen. Munoz and his secretary wre, present. A squad led by Nuila killed both, This was all tne bloodshed. It was reported tbat three States—Yora, Colon and Qlencho—gave their allegiance to Nulla, who has a thousand men at his back and is marching to the interior, Sweeping all before him. Nulla was fora long time Administrator and Commandant of Ceiba, but his enemies by constantly send- ing to the general Government reports of his crookedness and malfeasance in office, — succeeded in dtspossessing him of rst the former and finally the latter these offices. The revolu- tion he started is the outcome of his revenge. The reason he was not deposed sooner was because he was the son-in-law of Senor Zelaya, Minister of Foreign Affairs, but his wife. died and this relationship was thus X A severed. Nutla is a son of Gen. „ Nutla, who arrived in Mobile by a schooner a week ago, and is now in New York, where he went ostensibly to have his eyes treated, but those here who have lived in Honduras believe that this reason was given merely toavoid any suspicion that he was connected with the revolution, which he knew would be inaugurated by his son. Gen. Munoz, who was assassinated at Truxillo was very unpopular with the people along the coast on account of many cruelties and also because of his having extorted large sums of money from fake taxation, one of his schemes being a ronuncilament ordering all the people to pay n lMberal contributions for erectiou of a statue to Christopher Columbus, with the threat. (which was vigor ously executed), that these not complying would bave their places of business looted. A private letter received in the city by the Morse, and dated Ceiba, June 27, states that two soldiers were killed and severa wounded in the first outbreak in that city on the 23d. Col. Nulla, with a squad of revoiutionists in a yawl, boarded the Otter], which was lying a short distance from shore, and call on Capt. Challonerto givethem the ship so as to enable them to transport their ammuni- tion, guns, provisions, etc. Seeing resist ance was useless the Captain of the vessel surrendered his ship and in company with Col. Nuila proceeded to the shore and thence to the American Consul, where he filed a protest against the treatment he had received while in command of the Otteri. On Friday the vessel manned by 500 in- surgents silently steamed down to Truxillo and that was the last known of her. Adviees reached Leeiba that on Saturday about daylight the city of Truxillo had been captured by the Insurgents. General Munez, one of the Government Generals and a strong supporterand uphoider of President Levia was captured and condemned to be shot and he was publicly executed at 8 o’clock Saturday morning. Three States from the interior of the country have joined in the support of Bonilla and are sending large forces to aid the insurgents. No one has been killed recently but trouble of a more serious nature may arise at any time. INDIAN TERRITORY CATTLEMEN. A Protective Association Formed With Headquarters at Vinita. Parts, Texas, July 2.—The stockmen of the northeastern portion of the Indian Terri- tory have just organized what they term the Cattlemen’s Protective Association of the Indian Territory with headquarters at Vinita; C. L. McClellan, President, and B. O. Anderson, Secretary. The is to protect themselves from by theft and otherwise of cattle which are shipped to market. The means employed is the maintenance of inspectors at Kansas City, St. Louls and Chicago and later in the season what are termed line riders, will be ut along the Kansas and Missouri lines, The inspectors will look through all shipments of cattie from this section and cut all which are shown by their brands to belong to mem bers of this association, if shipped by others than their owners. There are estimated to be 400,000 within the country proposed to be covered by the association, and it is ex — that one-half ofthem will be repre- sentee. 1088 Died in a Hovel. LANCASTER, Pa., July 2.—Mary Alloway, an aged and eccentric character of Mt.

A CONVICT’S BRIDE. Burglar Daly’s Pretty Wife Recites Her Story of Woe. New Tonk, July 2.—This is the story ofa young wife who suddenly finds that the man whom she loves is a thief; the story ofa wife who looks forward nine years toa reunion with him who was taken last week to Sing Sing; whose tears, whose prayers are all for aim. Weill both of us be young when he comes out, she says. ‘‘I’ll stick by him. He’s mine; he’s my husband. I married him for better or worse. The half of the shame I’litake. And we'll be together yet in spite of the whole world.“ Perhaps that sounds affected. But any- body who heard her say these words and noted how she tried to hide her tears could not have doubted the intensity and sin- cerity ofher feeling. She is the wife of Wallace, the man who robbed flats and made her think he played the races and al- ways won. None but a green country girl would ever have believed sucn an inherently improbable tale. Wives are opposed to gambling. They hate it with every fiber of their nature—when their husbands lose. The man’s name is not Wallace. Itis Daly. And his mother lives on Columbus avenue, if tossing on a sick bed, broken in body and mind, walling and weeping for her first born, can be called living. In the same fat is the woman who married Daly, believing him to be the finest man that ever lived, and still loving him, maintaining with every word that she can utter that he was treated shame- fully, put upon and scandalously abused. Not if she can help it, is she going to let her father and mother know what his absence means. | 1 am not going to tell you what my father’s name is or where he lives, she cried. ‘‘If they find out where my husband is, why lean fix upastory for them. They’s lots of folks gets into trouble withthe races, aint they? Look at Websters. When she told about her being married, part of the time she said it was at New Haven and part ofthe time she said it was Hart- ford. Now, look here, it wasn’t at either place, was it?“ she was asked. **Well, you can just say Conmecticut,’’ was the reply. She gave the reporter her photograph, never thinking thatthe photographer's ad- dress was on the bottom of the card and on the back, too.

THEY MADE UP. | A Chicagoan Finds His Runaway Wife at Hotel Hurst. Two stylishiy ssed young ladies arrived at the Union Depot Friday evening on a Cairo Short Line train and tooka cab for Hurst’s Hotel. When the cabman drove off Detective King was at hig side and he rode up the ele- vator of the hotel with the ladies without ex- citing their suspicion. They must have no ticed that heobserved them rather closely, but their beauty had attracted the attention ofa number of other gentlemen during the day and they probably thought nothing or very little of it, Having satisfied himself that the ladies auswered the description given in a telegram received at police headquarters a couple of hours before, King returned to the Four Courts to report, and directly afterwards a telegraph message was sent to Chicago to the effect that the ladies wanted had arrived and were stopping at Hurst’s Hotel. They had registered as Mrs. M. A. Wood and Miss Alma Gregory of Chicago. They said that they couldn't tell exactly how long they would remain at the hotel, perhaps only until next morning, and then again they might stay several days. They were assigned to room 8, and the two or three gentlemen who saw them in the reception r00m were struck with their beauty and bandsome appearance gen- erally. One was a blonde andthe othera brunette, and they appeared to be of about the same age, 18 or 19, possibly 20 years old. Detective King was at the hotel again bright and early yesterday morning, and as soon as the ladies had breakfastec he intro- duced himself and had a talk with them. The husband of the married lady had arrived ona morning train and the detective had hardly taken a geat when Mr. Wood put in an appearance much to the surprise of the ladies. Mr. Kin took his departure and later on Mr. ood called at the Four Courts and announced that he and his wife had made up and that she would re- turn home with him. He declined to go into particulars regarding thelr little misunder- standing, but from what he had already said, it was evident that his wife had run away and had not forgotten to provide her- self well with funds before leaving home.

Desperate Attempt of Four Mexican Soldiers to Escape. LAREDO, Tex., July 2.—Great excitement was created for awhile this evening in La- redo upon the action of the military guard in New Laredo, Mexico, firing over 100 shots at two deserters from the Mexican army who undertook to make their escape to this side. It is the custom for the soldiers in that place to be brought down to the river on cer tain days in the year under guard for the purpose of bathing at 5o’clock. This even- ing two of them made a bold break to swin to the side and a fire with long-range guns upon them. One succeeded in reachin this bank, but his companion turned bac and surrendered to the guard. Over five | hundred de crowded the bank on this side and cheered the man who landed. Dur- ing the firing many balls struck houses on this side and came near killing American citizens. Great indignation is expressed to- night because of this reckless firing. CYRUS W. FIELD.

A Pretty Good Imitation of the Foreign | Article in Southern California. From the Pittsburg Dispatch. . Among many of the older residents of San Bernardino County the existence ofa t ice gorge of the upper levels of Gray back Mountain, the monarch of the San Bernar- dino range, has been known and vouched for during the past thirty years. Mr. C. Haskell of San Bernardino received the story from many different sources, and only two years ago Mr. F. Gilman, at present a school teacher in North Ontario, while on an ex- — tour in the section mentioned found is way to this marvel and came back with tales of an immense — of ice, locked up in a canon, that was pressing immense masses of granite down into valleys below, Securing a suitable outfit,a party, under command of Col. M. M. Congden, left Los Angeles over the kite-shaped track of the Santa Fe road Monday, June 6. At Highland Station they boarded the Bear Valley stage, and at Pine Lake mustangs and burros were rocured to go to the headwaters of the Santa Ana River, and there make the ascent of Grayback Mountain. One of the features of the stop at the Bear Valley Hotel wasa June snowstorm with a fall of six inches, the altitude being 6.750 feet. Ice formed in the water pitchers ln the morning a quarter of an inch in thickness. A start was made at 6 o’clock the next morning, anda climb of 1,500 feet was made tothe summit of the range south of Pine ke. The aneroid barometer indicated an elevation of 6,020 feet. The descent from this point to the Santa Ana Vallev. is most a y- cipitous. There isan almost abrupt fall of 4 feet. Slowly and cautiously threadin thetr way over immense sloping © rounded granite boulders, at an altitude of 10,000 feet a grass-covered plateau halfa mile wide was crossed, and then the party turned intoa canon that was 25 ently impassable, but a thread-like trall wound in and out of the rugged and forbid- ding mountain side, always stretching up- ward toward the clouds. After four hours of very slow climbing a rocky peak was reached beyond which towered the snowy tops of Grayback Mountain, San Bernardino, and other peaks of the higher range. As the party proceeded up the canon the masses of snow along the sides and in the old torrent d became more frequent, and at many points had drifted into ks twenty, thirty and fifty feet in depth. The ascent was up a steép incline, and on either 22 were great ravines the moun- tain side that extended 2 for hundreds of feet to ints near ® summit.

Mr. Edward Tracy’s Story Believed to Be Another Oase of the Fare McPherson Double”—The Theory That He Is in St. Louis Not Oredited—What His Friends Say. Page McPherson, the long -missing young St. Louis stockbroker, has been a pecultariy pictu resque mystery ever since the day of his disappearance last summer. He still holds the record in that respect. According to the very story of Mr. Edward Tracy of the St. Joe Lead Co. of this city, Page McPherson was in St. Louis last Thursday. Mr. Tracy states only saw him at that time but greeted him, stopped and talked with him awhile, and only terminated the conversation when he perceived that some of his questions were unpleasant for Page McPherson to answer. According to the equally confident state- ments of other St. Louis friends of the miss- ing young man, Page McPherson is now lo- cated at Monterey, Mexico; is engaced in business there, and has no intention of com- ing to st. Louis until he is prepared to fully meet his financial obligations here. These latter statements are supported by details that certainly indicate no doubt whatever as to this definite knowledge of McPherson’s whereabouts. MR. TRACY’S STORY. Mr. Tracy’s story, as pubiished yester- day’s afternoon PosT-DISPATCH, caused con- siderable discussion among Page McPher- son’s friends in St. Louis. It was quite generally put down, however, as another case of the Page McPherson double, whose appearance during the first excitement over the disappearance served to complicate mat- ters very much at that time, deceiving At- torney Robt. W. Goode and many others who knew McPherson well. Mr. Tracy stated substantially that he had met Page Mc- Pherson about noon on Thursday, on the corner of Third and Chestnut streets. Tracy spoke to Mr. McPherson,’’ who replied quite cor- dially, and a brief conversation followed. Only when Page McPherson’’ was asked where he was stopping did he showany em- barrassment, and shortly after that the two separated. Mr. Tracy saw no grounds for doubt that the man he met and chatted with as described was Page McPherson. Inquiry made on Third street among McPherson’s friends yesterday afternoon de- veloped that there was no knowledge of McPherson beng in this city, and much grave doubt was expressed as to the correctness of Mr. Tracy’s Deilef that he had seen the missing manas told. It also developed that there is a very definite knowl. ege among McPherson’s friends here as tohis actual whereabouts. Last night fuss“ Samuels, the well-known young Third street broker, who has been a friend of McPher- s0n’s since boyhood, said: KNOWN TO BE IN MONTEREY. Tracy is mistaken. Page McPherson has not been in St. Louis since his disappearance last summer. He is now in business in Mexico, and anybody who knows Page knows that he would not return to St. Loulsif he could not come back openly and without fear of trouble. I believe he will eventually return, but it will be when he has made enough money to make everything ali right here, and remove the — from his good name. His friends know exactly where he is. Only last week Mr. Jo- seph Robson, President of the Mexican & Monterey Railroad, was in St. Louis. I saw him and in the ccurse of the conver- sation he mentioned the fact I already knew, that Page McPherson was now in business at Monterey, Mexico, and doing fairly well. This has been known for some time to Fage’s friends here, and there is not the siightest probability that he has made a secret journey to St. Louis as would appear from Tracy's story. It is verily a case of mistaken identity.’’ This view of the story told by one generally tagen by all the st. Louis friends of Page McPherson. They do not be- lieve it possible that he would come here and practically remain in hiding both from friends and enemies during his stay. Tracy is the SCOTTISH CLANS PICNIC.

An impor- tant meeting of the Executive Committee of the league was held at the rooms of the Building Trades Club, 127 East Twenty-third street, at which the plan most favored was the formation was a company or corporation for the supply of building materials in order to bring to a speedy end the strikes of the public cart men, brick-handlers and cement men ordered by District Assembly 253. J. M. Cornell was unwilling to talk about the meeting. No definite action was taken, he said, at least no definite action which it would be prudent to make public now. There probably will be nothing im- portant done until Wednesday next, when there will be another 8 4. Supt. Cooper of the Jackson Architectural Iron- works was more communicative. ‘*‘We decided to-day,’’ he said, ‘‘to notify the building material bosses, who are about fif- teen in number, that unless they supplied the matertal to the buildings we would start a company ourselves to supply brick, sand, lime, cement and other materials to enable the bricklayers and masons to keep abreast with the iron-work. If we start such a company it will be no tem- porary concern. It willcometostay. Three or four of the largest boss masons in the city are willing to go in with the Iron League in the plan, and there would be plenty of capl- tal. Weare disgusted with matters as they now stand. Either the material men must furnish us with the stuffina very short time or we will furnislyit ourselves. We can get all the non-union help we want, evento engineers and derrick men. Mr. Cooper said that the Jackson Architec- tural Iron Works would be shut down until Tuesday to make necessary repairs and that the shut down bad nothing to dowith the strikes. No new strikes were ordered yes- terday. In fact, the leaders seem puzzled what to do. The work of repaving the streets with granite biocks, which has been greatly de- layed by the granite workers and pavers’ strike, has been resumed on all contracts in this city, according to Commissioner Gilroy, who says tbat all the work begun will be completed before winter. The Board of Walking Delegates met yesterday and elect- ed John Tasker of the Steam Fitters Presi- dent, and Alexander Martin of the Steam Fitters’ Helpers Treasurer. The S&Statisti- clan and the Secretary will be appointed next Wednesday. Patrick Hennessey was re-elected Walking Delegate of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Pierre J. Butler was made Waiking Delegate or the Reliance Labor Club of Marble Cutters. REAL SYMPATHY. Pine BLurr, Ark., June 2,—The labor ele- mentinthe machine shopsof the St. Louis Southwestern Railroad here are bobbing up quite lively, as about forty men quit. work. this afternoon. Thetroubleis that one of the machinists, G. 8. Griswell, who has been sick off and onfor sometime, yet able to work. Being poor he continued at his place, but having a bowel trouble was compelled to neglect his work frequently, and this morn- ing he was out about twenty-nine minutes. He was timed by the general fore- man, 0 W. Gage, and on his return was discharged. This incensed the other men of his department and a com- mittee of five, with A. McDonald as Chair- man, went to see the general foremanto ex- Sstulate ‘with him regarding his action. bey got no satisfaction, and returning to the machine rooms so stated, when the whole bunch, some forty in number, notified the foreman that they had decided to quit, and they did quit immediately. It is believed that this will bring about a general strike throughout the shops, and it this is carried out some 500 men, to say nothing of the ap - prentices, will be out and ia ependent by next Tuesday morning.

MUGAN’S DISMISSAL. He Denies a Story Circulated as Ac- counting for It. The causes for the mysterious dropping from the roll of School Board employes of the name of Prof. M, Durant Mugan, until recently Principal of the O’Fallon School, have been shrouded in mystery. The members of the Teachers Committee have been perfect sphinxes when asked to explain their action in regard to Prof. Mugan, and he himself has emphatically refused to discuss the matter. In consequence of this strange behavior many sinister rumors have been set afloat as to the real reason for Mr. Mugan’s dismissal. The report became no- torious thatthe cause was a smirch on Mr. Mugan’s moral character. ‘This report was circulated in several phases,and the most se- rious of them has been given the most wide spread currency. It has been said that Mr. Mugan has a wife and child in London, Ontario, his old home. This charge de- comes very serious in the light of Mr. Mugan’s career in St. Louis. For several years he has been a devoted ad- mirer of the fair sex, and has been assiduous m his attentions to several well known young ladies of the most aristocratic and reserved circies in the West End, so that his advances were regarded as serious in more than one instance. The report went that the Teach- ers Committee put the alleged fact of Mr. Mugan’s marriage side by side with his conduct in “Jocal social circles, and dropped him from the rolls to avoid a possi- bie future standal which would injure the public schools. In justice tb Mr. Mugan a Post- DISPATCH reporter wert in search of him last evening to run the rumor to th. Mr. Mugan was found in the library the Marquette Club. He was pointedly asked: Mr. Mugan, is it true that you have a wife and child living in London, Ontario?’’ Most emphatically itis not true. I was never married, and have nota wife nor child anywhere. Ifanyone desires to know what was my reputation in London, Ontario, or in Tilsonburg, Ontario, a few miles from Lon- don, Ican refer him to a number of persons in those towns. Let anyone who wishes, communicate with Mr. Barrett, a merchant of Tilsonburg; Mr. Cnarles Miller of Ingersol, a schoolmate of mine; Prof. H. B. Brown, President of Northern Indiana Normal School; Judge Dubose, Judge Edgerton, Judge Hunt and Dr. Harrington of Memphis, and learn whether or not I was ever married. When quite a youth I was sent to boarding school at the Canadian Literary Institute at Woodstock, Ontario, where Prof, Wolverton still remains. LaterIcrossed the lake and spent some time at the Oberlin College at Oberlin, O. From there I went to the Northern indiana Normal Schools at Val- paraiso, Ind., where I spent three years. The Principal Prof. H. B. Brown has known me for twelve years. Prof. John 8. Collins of the Divol School this city, has known me ten years. Mr. L. S. Holden of this city, has known me nine years. When asked if he would make known the cause of his removal, Prof. Mugan positively declined to do so, Chicago Market Letter. CuicaGco,Ill., July 32.—The most marked feature of the business on the Board of Trade was an advance of sauge in the price of pork, 174ec in the price of lard and Be in ribs. Bulls inthe provision pit had the market com- pletely uuder control and could have added as much again to previous prices had they so willed. Wheat and corn markets were firm, without being active. Wheat closed at an advance ot ue and corn of e, compared with previous day's. resting pricess The rainstorm which came down upon Chicago this morning pre- vailed also throughout an extensive ter- ritory in the fest and Northwest. It was the chief reason for an advance from ic to %c at the opening. Foreign markets were easier. Liverpool was quoted a trifie lower for fatures, and London 34 lower for cargoes. The weather in England was descri as very fine. The most bearish feature in the situation imme- diately at the opening was a report from Minneapolis that receipts there were 612 cars. That was corrected to read 312, and the cor- rection helped to stiffen the market. Duluth receipts were 84 cars, making a total of 385 forthe two principal Northwestern Cities. Corn started strong under the iafiuence of a rainstorm, albeit previous reports from Kansas and Nebraska were to the er- fect that more rain was needed in those States. Kansas, Misso@ri, Iowa, Noe. braska and Northwest a precipitation measurin from half an inch to one inch and a half, and still com- ing down, said numerous reports received in the course of the session. Receipts were 355 cars, of which fifty were of contract grade. There were 449,000 bushels ins ted out of store. EStimated receipts for Monday are 500 cars. Aside from a firm feeling and higher prices there was nothing of particular interest in oats. Ihe market was quiet and secured its strength from corn, which is followed pretty closely all day. The great strength which immé@diately succeeded the first few trades - isions was a revelation to the trade.

C. Jones’ Amusing Corre- spondence with a Pension Applicant. Judge Wm. C. Jones of st. Louis has re- cently had to nip a peculiar but hardy pen- sion blossom in the bud, owing to his in- ability to confirm a certain hitherto unknown story most cordially ‘‘recalled’’ for his benefit by an equally unknown correspond ent. At the outbreak ofthe civil war Judge Jones volunteered for active service, and was in the command of Gen. Nathaniel Lyon. In November, 1862, he was pointed a paymaster in the army with headquarters In St. Louis, and so served from that date until the close of the war. Only recently Judge Jones received a peculiar reminder of oid war times. It was in the shape of a letter from a man named Wickham. The writer stated that he had long intended writing to Judge Jones, toward whom he felt the warm est gratitude. He said he looked upon Judge Jones as his *‘‘savior,’’ and in explanation of that look he sought to recall to the Judge’s memory a certain engagement between the Union and Confederate forces which occurred in July, 1862, during which he, the writer, was overcome by the heat and fell unconscious on the field. When he recovered consciousness, he stated, the face that was bending over him was that of Judge Jones, and it was throu gh the latter’s kind care that he was restored to life, But the sunstroke had its effect, nevertheless, and now, thirty years afterward, he suffered from it to such an extentthat he felt compelled to apply for a pension. He had no doubt Judge Jones re- membered the circumstance perfectly. and one of his reasons for writing was to ask the Judge to indorse his application for a pension, Unfortunately, the recipient of the above letter was unable to so assist the pension applicant. Judge Jones replied to the writer that he would gladly consent to pose as his **Savior,’’ and to indorse his application tor A pension, but for three reasons. The first wasthatin July, 1862, he had not been ap- pointed to the command mentioned by the writer, and so could not have deen the person whose face the sun-struck man saw bendingover him. The second was that he was not in the action referred to, as it was outofthe territory in which Judge Jones’ command figured during the war. And the third was as a natural consequence that he had not the faintest recollection of the incli- dent described so graphically, and could not conscientiously compiy with his correspon- dent’s wishes as to the application for the pension. Judge Jones has as yet received no reply to this letter. A New Use for Trust Companies. The Union Trust Co. was yesterday made the trustee of a large sum of money deposited with it by the family of the late Col. John J. O’Falion upon a trust which is to continue for a great number of years, the object of which isto secure the maintenance of the O’Fallon lot in Bellefontaine Cemetery. The duties of the trustees are to see to it that this sum and the income from it are from time to time applied as occasion requires in keeping up in first-class style the monument and sur- rounding grounds in the family lot. This trustis something unusual, but suggests a most effective and satisfactory method whereby persons may absolutely insure the perpetual care of the last resting place of members of theirfamily. Doubtless the éx- ample of the O’Fallons will be followed py many others now that such a satisfactory method has been pointed out. Gave Him a Terrible Beating.

It Pauline Koch’s Assailant is Caught He May Be Lynched. The criminal assault on little Pauline Koch, the 8-year-old daughter of Frank Koch, a well-known farmer residing near Oakville, St. Louis County, by a hired hand named Jas. Kenny. das caused a decided sensation in that neighborhood. As was related in yesterday’s Posr-Drisraren Koch had paid Kenny off early in the morning as the harvesting was over. After ing the other help Koch drove up It was duriug bis absence from home that the man Jim took advantage of the child and accomplished his purpose. Koch, upon returning home, passed the man on th road. The fellow was on his way to the Lemay Ferry Road, bound for the city. When Koch arrived home and heard from his daughter what had occurred during his ab- sence hesaddied a horse and drove to the city. Several acquaintances were met but upon being questioned none saw a man answering the description of Kenny. Koch rode on to Carondelet and notified Capt. Boyd. The man evidently cut through the reservation to either the Barracks Road or took to the Iron Mountain Railway. Police Captain Boyd drove out to the county and notified the farmers to keepa sharp lookout for the man. Justice Noerper and Constable Schwab were also notiffed of the assault. The Vakville farmers organized a posse among themselves, mounted horses and are now searching the woods and cross- roads. Sofarascan be learned, the man has eluded capture. It is said that if caught by the posse they will lynch him. The police here are keeping a sharp lookout for him. The child is in a pre- carious condition. 4 Kenny, it is said, assaulted the girl before about two weeks ago, but intimidated her so that she was afraid to tell anybody about It. Rev. F. E.

DENNY FURNIGHES FACTS FOR AN EXPOSE. The Taxpayers Made in Order to Give B. R. Warner & Co. a License Unmade as Soon ag the Object of the /Petitioner for * Had Been Accomplished— How the People Are Fooled. This is the time when saloon-keepers have to renew their licenses. They have to do it twice a year, Jan. (and July 4. Th are the days when the citizen and 9 who doesn't want a saloon on his block takes a paper and goes around among his neighbors to get up a remonstrance to be presented to Collector Ziegenhein, little thinking, unless he has been through a campaign of this kind before, thathe is making it easier for the dramshop to get its license renewed. He pre- seems his remonstrance to the Collector, . signed by a majority of the tax-payers on the block, and returns to his home, proudly con- fident that his wil be one of the une residence bidéks in the city not disfigured by a beer. saloon on the corner with the usual kegs and group of topers in front of it. A few days afterwards he hears that the saloon has gota license. Thunder- struck, he goes to the coilector’s office, Col- lector Ziewenhein listens to his complaint with an alr of sympathy, and calls in Dram- shop Deputy Julius Wurtzburger. ‘‘Let us see that petition,’’ he says. Deputy Wurtzburger brings in the petition, It has twenty names. But, says the indignant citizen, there are only twenty-one owners of assessed prop- erty On that block, and fifteen signed my re- monstrance. Deputy Wurtzburger smiles: ‘‘ You see the petition,’’ he says; go to the Assessor’s of ficer, and you will find that they are all assessed. As he leaves, the Collector and Deputy Wurtzburger look at each other and smile. They know. though the citizen does not, that the remonstrance had been shown to the saloon keeper, so that he knew exactly how many names lie must getand which ones he could not obtain. ‘lhe citizen goes to the As- seseor’s office and then to the Recorder’s office, and from the books of both places he finds that the saloon-keeper has bought asmall lot on the Diock cheapiy and has chopped it up Into smali pieces, which he has divide among his friends. Their names are the ones Witicth have overcome the re- monsirance, the genuine representation of the desire of the block's tax-payers. The dummies of the saloon-keeper’s petition do not live on the block, don’t pay acentof taxesanddon’tcarea cent whether prop- erty on the block goes upordown. They know perfectiy well that they will never be called on to pay a tax on their absurd real estate holding, and thattheir assessment isa burlesaue for the benefit of the saloon-Keepers. Before the deeds he has given them have been recorded in fact, there are executed back to him quit claim deeds of the little strips of land, so that he will not run any risk of having his title clouded, Ihe citizen investigating does not believe the evidence of his senses atfirst, when he sees this patent evasion of the law. He goes back to Collector Ziegenhein indignant. ‘Those names are fraudulent,’’ he says. Are they? Are they?“ responds Deputy Wurtzburger, firingup; and he goes into his desk and hauls out an opinion he keeps for just such troublesome people. It is an opin- jon from City Counselor W. C. Marshall that the Collector must recognize thes: miniature lots as pieces of real estate and their owners astax payers. Then the citizen begins to see that he has been playing against loaded dice,and he goes away to join the army of resentful property owners ofall parties who are waiting for a chance to place a man in the Collector's office who will be just. EXPOSING A TRICK ACCIDENTALLY. At the beginning ofthis year B. R. Warren & Co. wanted to vpen a saloon at 4193 Fairfax avenue. Ihe West End Protective Association didn’t want one there. David Strawbridge was president of the asso@lation and Kdward secretary. Those gentlemen said that saloons were all v ell when people wanted them, but tt Diock, No. 456%, was go ing to be preserved for homes, and they didn’t want any beer selling about. They made a plot of the block, took a list of the names of the property-owners and got a majority of them on a remonstrance, which they filed with the Ooliector. Paul Tetri and Adolph Ram merer were interested in the success of B. K. Warner & Co., more or less directly. Both men control other places where liquor Is sold. Kammerer got possession of a lot on the block which is bounded by Finney, Whit- tier, Sarah and Fairfax. The lot was owned by Alexander Russell. Kammerer turned the lot over to Petri, who divided it among twenty-five people in pieces 1 foot wide and 681 feet deep Deeds to each of these twenty-five persons appeared in the Re- corder’s office simultaneously with the fil- ing ofthe petition of B. R. Warner & Co., containing the twenty-five names. The twenty-five names gave the saloon a ma- jority of the tax-payers, as Collector Ziegenhein wanted them, and the license was granted. *‘ADOLPH KAMMERER, REAL OWNER.'’ This was the first time’sucha brazen eva- sion of the law had been attempted in St. Louis. It was before J. A. Duffy did the same thing. The West End Protective 4880 Kation gave up the fight.

GLLBERT IN ARMS AGAIN, Robert Houdin would hide his diminished head before such juggling as this. It is no wonder that tax-payers feel discouraged. W. J. Gilbert ofthe sercantile Club aptly ex- 3 the feeling of every man who has en worsted in a contest with Collector Ziegenhein when he said yesterday, ‘‘I have ut another remonstrance before the Col- ector, but I don't expect it to do me much good. Weare on very good terms over there. That fat fellow, Wurtzburger, is as smiling asa basket of chips. He knows that I under- stand that his game is to give the saloonkeeper all the advantage, and that I have to have a wide margin to overcome that. My remonstrance is against the Pearl saloon on Clark and California avenue, the one that cut up a lot into six pieces to get signatures last year. Idon’t find much en- couragement this time, butiam keeping at it through 7 12 People who ought to be interested initare not. One man of those who thinks I ami not going to heaven because frightfally irreligtous, fighting the battle will not oppose this saloon, although he will make a great row abouta circus coming up there on a vacant lot. Otherssay: ‘Oh, Gilbert is an energetic fellow. We'll leave it all to him.“ And soit goes. Sometimes, by George, I’m inclined to Believe that the best thing to do is to look after yourself and your own family, and let ali the rest go to the devil in their own way. Mr. Gliibert last year tried to close the Pear! saloon which was running without a license. The owner was fined several times in the Police Court and wayor Noonan each time remitted the fine. ‘then Collector Zei- genhein gave the place a license, in violation of the law, which forbids him to give a li- cense to a man who has been convicted of violating the dram-shop law. Mr, Gilbert feit outraged very reasonably. About this time Matthew J. Gilbert, his son, was GQrawn on the Grand-jury. The Post-DIspaTcu, which, at the time, was exposing the Collec - tor’s violations of the dram-shop law, natur- lly expected that Mr. Gilbert would induce fre Grand jury to investizate the Collector's the inquiry was barely touched on; the strongest witnesses to the Collector’s malfeasance in office were not examined, and the Grand-jury adjourned without even an allusion to the subject. The father alluded to that episode as he talked esterday. ‘*‘The Post-DisPaTcu criticised both me and my son about that Grand jury, said he, but it was really unjust. He wouldn’t have been treated soif the per had known all the facts. My son fought for that investigation, wasa strong advocate of the investigution, but the Republicans on the Grand -jiury made a political matter of it, and said they ought not to do anything to injure Zlegenhein, as it would hurt the Repuvlican party. What could my son do, witb all those older men against him, assisted by the Prosecuting At- torney, trying to prevent an investigation? The Prosecuting 3 had the whole thing in his hands, and he was determined that there should not be an investigation. He would call a witness in and ask him. ‘**Well, what do you know about this N ‘Office, but the answer showed that his evi dence was going to am- asing, the Prosecuting Attorney would say: ‘Oh, we’ve got a dozen more men to testify to that; you’d better go home.’ The Prosecuting Attorney is always able to manipulate a Grand-jury, composed of inexperienced men, in this way. If they could get ona jury again, with their experi- ence, they could beat out tue Prosecuting Attorney. I don’t feel like compiaining at all of what the paper has said about me. It is engaged in what I consider a great public work, and if it came to the conclusion that it had to pitch into me, I was willing to grin and bear it. MAKING A USELESS FIGHT. „Mr. Wurtzburger told me he would let me see the Pear) saloon petition to-day. con- tinued Mr. Gilbert, and I believe I'll go over now and look at it.

An Official Version of the Slush Fund Affair of 1888. HOW RUSSELL HARRISON WORKED S&T. LOUIS REPUBLICANS FOR $39,000. 4 Leader Who Was There Furnishes Some Heretofore Unwritten History—What Gen. Henderson Is Reported to Have Said About Second Terms—Organiza- tion of the Business Mbn’s Democratic Club. There have been several accounts given of the slush fund conference held in the Mercan- tile Olub of this city, just before the 1988 presidential election, but the correct history of that celebrated meeting has never been made public. Yesterday a Posr- DISPATCH representative was given the inside facts by a Republican who was there and who subscribed a portion of the $29,000 that washurriedly raised and sent to Indiana. For obvious reasons the name of the gentleman is withheld, but he is reliable authority onthe subject of that meeting. The meeting was called hurriedly, and there were about thirty Republicans of wealth and influence there. Every effort was made to preserve secrecy, but despite all it leaked outand has frequently been spoken of since. It was got- ten up through the instrumentality of no less prominent a personage than Russell Harri son, the President's son. He eame here two days beforehand and lost no time calling on Gen. John B. Henderson, R. O. Kerens, John W. Gates, C. 8. Greeley and others. He reported that he had gone over the ground thoroughly and that tnere was imminent danger of losing Indiana. ‘‘It would be ruinous,’’ he said, ‘*to have the Republican nominee slaugh- tered, and that, too, by his own state. YOUNG HARRISON ALARMED. The President's son was alarmed, and he made Gen. Henderson, Kerens and the other leaders feel as he did. He had been else- where, but had not succeeded in raising the amount consid dad essential to hold the Hoosier State iq line for the national ticket. It was no time for delay, he argued, some thing had to be done, and done promptly and well. It was only a few hours later that the notices were sent out, and the next evening the meeting was held behind closed doors in one ofthe upper roams of the Mercantile Club. Russell Harrison was there early and made a brief address, telling how necessary it was to raise fundsto save Indiana to the Republican cause. He spoke with earnest- ness and impressed all that great danger lurked behind the Democratic activity in Indiana. Gen. Henderson spoke also and urged that funds be raised for the use of the campaign in that State and in short order a committee was appointed to raise subscrip- tions. Gen. Henderson, John W. Gates and R. C. Kerens promptly put up $2,000 each and K. 8. Rowse came alone with a check for $1,000. When he saw the $2,000 subscriptions he took up his check and made out another for $2,000. The work went on and by the next day the fund reached the hand- some sum or $39 „ The largest individual Gonation was $5,000, and this, it is stated, came from C. S. Greeley. The money at all events was bundled together and sent to in- diana to save Harrison, and Prince Russell went away happy. HENDERSON’S REPORTED REMARKS. A feature of that conference which has also been kept in the background, was also told to the PoOsST-DISPATCH representative by the Republican leader who was there. He said that before and after it was held, Gen. Henderson told a number of gentlemen that he would willingly help Mr. Harrison on that occasion, but thatif he blossomed out as a candidate for a second term he would oppose him. His explanation was that second terms were dangerous as they afforded opporuntities for corruption and general wrongdoing that would hurt the country and the party. The claim is made that he said this to those who were invited to subscribe but that he did not make the re- mark in the presence ſof the younger mem ber of the Harrison family. An effort was made derson yesterday but by the announcement tive that he had would stay a long time. that more than one of the Republicans who responded to Russell Harrison's appeal would now object in no uncertain manner if again asked to down in their pockets to help save Indiana, or any other electoral votes needed by the Republican nominee. - — ‘COMMITTEEMAN PRATHER. Missouri’s Representative in the National Democratic Committee on the Ticket. National Committeeman J. G. Prather re- turned yesterday from Oconomowoc, where he retired after the convention fora few days’ rest. He is fully satisfied with the ticket, being an original Cleveland man, and thinks that with Stevenson Illinois will go Demo- cratic. In Chicago, where Mr. Stevenson is very popular on account of his work for the World’s Fafr, they are especially favorable. Wisconsin, where Col. Prather has spent the ten Gays since the convention, according to the local lights, is sure for the Dem- ocracy. He yesterday said. Our Com- mittee will meet at the call of the Chairman, Senator Brice. The general understanding is that we will meet and organize about the time that the No tion Committee meets in New York, probably the izth inst., or such time as may suit Mr. Cleveland. As to who will be chair- man of our committee I cannot say. I notice the papers are talking of Whitney and Harrity, either would make a most excellent manager. Senators Gorman and Brice are both expert political managers, but I suppose they have done their share of hard work and are likely toask fora rest. Mr. Cleveland, no doubt, will have his choice iu the chairman. The Campaign Committee will have control of the canvass, however. 1 have no information from the East except what I mn the papers.

The bond of friendship which heretofore ex- isted between Alderman James H. Cronin of the First Ward and Sprinkling Inspector Jas. Cunningham of the same ward, has been rudely severed. It was snapped asunder ina pugilistic set-to which took place between these two political heavy-weigbtsFriday even- ing. Cronin recently had the Mayor appoint one Maroney,a guard in the Work-house. This is said to have displeased Cunningham, who appears to have had a man of his own picked out forthe place. Cunningham went to see Cronin in reference to the matter, and they agreed to meet later and talk it over. For some reason the appointment was not kept. Last Friday night, when Cronin, who had been imbibing a little freely, came upon Cunningham in front of No, 15 engine- house, he is sald to have questioned the latter as to why he had neglected to Keep his appoint- ment. The discussion became somewhat animated, and finally the First Ward Alder- man {is said to have connected his right with the Sprinkling Inspector’s jaw. nning- ham was quick to respond, and the unsteady statesman either slippeu or was knocked down. The inspector was upon him in an instant, and there would have been fun ha not outsiders separated the billigerents. Cronin isa big, powerful young man, who put io plenty of muscle while engaged in pursuing his trade as horse-shoer, and Cun- ningham, who is an old steamboat mate, has even a greater physique.

WITH A WOMAN, — a *—— ug A New Phase of the Berg Embezszle- ment Case, SAID TO HAVE GONE AWAY WITH A YOUNG LADY. The Young Bank Collector’s Wife Has Heard the Story and Says If It Is True She Will Hunt the Woman Down— Berg’s Father Gays the Boy Should Answer for His Crime. The cause of the mysterious disappearance of Henry Berg, together with $7,000 of the La- fayette Bank’s money, is likely to be solved within the next twenty-four hours. There are people who claim not to be surprised at Mr. Berg’s act. The good reputation that he is given by his employers is not entertained by gentleman who does business at No. 3607 Missouri avenue. Said he in regard to the case last night: Ido not understand why the bank officials should put such implicit confidence in young Berg, when they know or should have Known that ie has been connected with and a leading participant in sev- eral cases that would be a detri- ment to anyone’s standing. He has caused his father no end of trouble in the past eight years, and more than once he has saved him from disgrace in order to protect his wife and his position in the bank. SAID TO BE A WOMAN IN IT. Since yesterday afternoon a rumor has been in circulation that a woman figures in the case, and that she was the cause of Berg’s committing an act that, if he is captured, will probably terminate in his serving a term behind the prison bars. Forsometime past Mr. Berg, it is stated, has been paying such marked attention toa young lady in South St. Louls, that neighbors took occasion to gossip. And it is claimed that it is not the first time that he has been a leading inascrape witha woman. A PosT-DISPATCH reporter called at the Berg resid night and was met by Berg, the wife of the defaulting collector, askea if she had any information from her husband since his departure, she repiied: 5 HIS WIFE HEARS THE STORIES 16 0, 1 3 2 1 thing to-day a — — Ber picion,’’ continued flash with f OE is a woman in 0 learned from responsible tha he accompanied a young lady to the Mera- mec picnic, and all day I have been related stories dy friends that place him in rather a bad — I never once dreamed that he had anything to do with other women, for he ap- peared to be devoted tome and his ehildren, and was never out at night unless I knew where he was.

If ro oe the honor or honesty ofa Southern man he will kill you, and that is the end of it, but at the same time that same man thinks nothing of stuffing a ballot box or making false re- turns of the elections.

Special Correspondence SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. NEW York, June 80.—Bourke Cockran, whose remarkable speech in defense of mmany and its candidate at the Demo- cratic Convention, gave bim a suddenly in- creased prominence as a national Demo- cratic igure, has been much sought after “ome at his country seat at Land’s Point, Long Island. Once seen, Bourke Cockran is a man nat soon forgotten. He looks like no other man. A big head set upon broad shoulders, which, stardy as they seem, are hardly large enou gh to bear his head, is perhaps the most dis- tinctive characteristic of the orator’s appear- ance. His chest is full, as is his short, heavy throat. Big in brain, he is big in body. He stands 6 feet 10½ inches in height and weighs 210 pounds. He wears a NO 8 hat, No. 9 gloves and No. 10 shoes. CHARACTERISTICS OF MANNER. His hair, shaggy and abundant,is dark brown in hue. A few gray hairs are sprinkled in the shock. His slight moustache and sug: gestion of an imperial on the firm chin are dark brown, too. The eyes are true Irish eyes, a deep, clear blue. The eyelids are fringed with black lashes and the eyebrows are black and bushy. The habitual drooping of the lids down over the pupils gives Bourke Cockran a dreamy, sleepy look. Except when worked upto the high pitch of an invective or an argument there is always about him an alr of languid repose. He is always good natured, inclined to be lazy, and there are few people who don’t like him. There is something of the big Newfoundland about him. The manner of Tammany’s orator is always dignified and earnest. He never indulges in small talk, but he can tell a delightful story. His voice is his greatest charm. Itiga rich, deep baritone. He could launch the curse in ‘‘Richelieu’’ magnificently. There is a mellowness and softness about Mr. Cockran’s voice that is rarely heard in our Western climate. It is that of a cultivated lrishman, and there is just ehough reminis- cence of the brogue of County Sligo aboutfit toadd another delight tothe ear when he speaks. Cockran is a bigeater. He enjoys the good things of the table with the heartiest zest. In fact it has been sald of bim that he can tuck away as much as four ordinary men. He can eat, too, at any time of the day or nicht and never suffer any discomfart. He is fond Thus encouraged, young Cockran worked harder than ever. His days were give” up to teaching, for he had to earn his living, but his evenings and all his leisure ts were devoted.to his books. In 187% he gave up school teaching, was admitted to the bar, and, after practicing two years in Mount Vernon, moved to New York and opened an office here. It was a modest little back room on an upper floor at No. 178 Broadway, but the rent was small and that was a consideration. Like most young lawyers he found it upbill work at frst, He was ready to take anything that came along, but nothing came, and for months he was able to earn barely enough for food and lodging. He had an easy audacity, a happy-go-lucky good nature about him, however, that car- ried him over rough places and he made friends. One of the first of these was Charles Strauss, who had a law office in the same building, and through him Cockran obtained his first case. A client of strauss had a friend who was arrested for receiving stolen goods and Strauss was asked to defend him. He was not a eriminal lawyer and refused to take the case. So he turned it over to Young Cockran. Here, Bourke, he said, ‘‘if you can win this case you'll have a practice of 820, 000 a year before you knewit. But young Cockran didn’t win, forthe vi- dence was dead against him, but he madea splendid fight and itis doubtful whether he ever worked harder on a case since. The trial at least gave him an opening. The sult was tried before Judge Cowing. The young lawyer’s earnestness, eloquence and knowledge of criminal law made a deep impression upon all who heard him. Judge Cowing didn’t know the youth and addressed him as *‘Judge.’’ Young Strauss was in court an interested spectator. He takes you forthe famous Judge Coch- rane of Westchester County,’’ he whispered. That's all right,’’ coolly answered Cock- ran, perhaps Judge Cochrane may be mis- taken for me same day. After that Mr. Cockran’s rise in his profes- sion was rapid and he began to take an in- terest in political affairs. His advent in — Was in Kings County. He asked the Jemocratic leaders over thereto give him a — in the Kings County General Committee. zut ne had yet to vim his spurs and didn’t meet with much encouragement. Uis eloquence was fast making him friends among the politicians,however. The leaders of the Irving Hall Democracy took him up and he first attracted public attention as the spokesman of that organization at the Albany State Convention of 1881. In the following year he was appointed counsel to the Sheriff's office by Sherif Davidson. John Kelly kept an eye upon the young man and in 1883 in- duced him to enter the Wigwam. He hada high opinion of young Cockran’s abilities and of good cigars, the better. He likes coffee. In the way of other liquid, he drinks only vichy water. He is fond of a quiet little game of ‘‘draw’’ with a small party of friends, and they say he is an expert at bluffing. So much for Bourke Cockran’s personality He is rugged and virile, and, as Bur- roughs said of Whitmar, he always has the wholesome freshness about him of a man who has just come from a bath. character apart from the lawyer, the poli- tician and the orator that most people don’t know about. He loves a dit of china with all the adoration of a woman. He knows a bit of Sevres from a piece of Dutch paste, and he has an admirable collection of teacups and bric-a-brac in Washington. He loves books, not only as a constant lover of letters, but as a bibliophile. He has his rare edli- tions of Grammont, Swift, of whom he tsa warm devotee, the letters of Junius, and so on. Before he was 16 he had read every work extanton Napoleon. And he stilll keeps up his omnivorous reading, even in the midst of his present busy life. é THE STABLES, Cockran’s stables area feature of the premises. They are 100 yards or more fromthe house. The main stable has floor and walls and ceiling highly polished. In the carriage-house, appointed inthe same fine way, the floor is covered with straw drugget—a carpet forthe feet of the Con- gressman’s thoroughbreds. Then, besides, there is a poultry-house, a house for cattle, dog-kennels and granaries, all kept clean as athreshing floor, and equipped with all the latest appliances for the housekeeping of cows, dogs and crack fowl. In one of the stallsthere is Mr. Cockran’s big saddle horse, with quarters like a Bu- cephalus ,astride which he takes a spin across the country every morning before breakfast. And in other stallsthere are the eight hand- some roadsters which always, in pairs, pull their owners between the Cedars and the station every day. As for the dogs about the place, their name is legion. There is Sachem, almost as big as Orator, himself a prize-winner at the bench show; Tum Tum and a lot ofother St. Ber- nards and greyhounds, and, as though all those were not enough, didn’t Erminie add nine smooth-coated baby St. Bernards to the tribe the other morning. Every vegetable that comes on the Cockran table is picked from their own garden, They raise all their own currants, strawberries and green stuff, and were supplied all winter at Washington with celery fromthefarm. The cows feeding on the lawns yesterday supply the family with milk, and the butter and cheese are churned inthedairy. Almost the only things Farmer Cockran has to buy are his meat and flour. And the place pays for itself, exclaimed the farmer with a gleam of pride on his face as he scanned his broad meadow. I made a splendid sale of straw the other day. The view from the Cedarsis very charming. You can see New York at the end of one vista and the Connecticut coast across the Sound atanother place. When Mr. Cockran took the place there was no tree-planting to be done. Nature had beenat work for years, and the growth ofelms, maples and cedars which cover the grounds everywhere is un- usually rich. Down on a little shingle, below the west pi- azza, there isa bath-house. It is from there Mr. Cockran takes his swim every day when itis warm. He can travel through the water for an hour without tiring. The same big lungs which give him the remarkable carry- ing power of his voice sustain him easily. Birds and rabbits and quail abound among the coverts of the cedars. The quailare get- ting as tame as doves. „„The robins peck my strawberries to pleces,’’ remarked Mr. Cockran, with sunny philosophy, yesterday. „And Lleft them. Perhaps it's sentiment, but I won’t have them disturbed. A gun has never been fired since I have been here, and will never beif I can prevent it. „There's a mother bird on her nest now,“ he cried out in glee as he spied a nest built into one end of the veranda. ‘Oh, no, laughed the big lover of birds and beaste as he said good-bye; ‘‘I haven't given up my residence in New York if I have sold out there. I'll be there next election day, never fear. and I'll vote for Grover.“ „And is it then to be ‘Grover, Grover! four more years of Grover?’ ’’ Out they go, was the cheerful response. William Bourke Cockgan has achieved a great deal in the thirty-eight years of his life. Here is his life story: He was born inthe Oounty Sligo, Ireland, Feb. 28, 1854. His parents, who were fairly well-to-do, intended him for the church, and sent him to the best preparatory schools in his native place and later to France to be educated. He was an apt pupil and excelled in his studies, but the career that had been marked out for him was not to his liking and atthe age of {7 he came to America to seek Bourke his His first employment in this country was as a Clerk in the house of A. T. Stewart & Co., but this, too, was distasteful to him, and he school in Rutgers street.

Mr. Cockran was made a delegate to the | Democratic National Convention in 1884, and wed with Kelly.and the other braves of the Wigwam in opposing the nomination of Grover Cleveland. His experience at that time was somewhat similar to that of Thurs- cay morning of the convention. One Tam- many man after another bad been hissed or howied down, with the exception of John Kelly, who was listened to with some respect and forbearance. After several members of the Wigwam had vainly tried to make themselves heard, Cock- ran arose and began to speak. The mob at- tempted to how! him down, but he continued totalk. It was one man against a multitude, and that man unknown, but gradually the confusion died down, and the voice of the speaker came out, growing more distinct until it could be heard im all parts of the hall. There was no more interruption after that and when Cockran sat down a-hearty rono of applause told him of the victory he had won. WAS JAKE SHARP’S COUNSEL. is record since that time is well known, He was again Er counsel to the Sher- iff’s office in 1 by Hugh J. Grant and held the position until the endof Grant’s term. Though heartily devoted to politics he has never been an office-seeker. He was induced to run for the Fiftieth Congressin the Twelfth District and was elected by over 5,000 major - ity. He made a fine record, but declined a renomination. He was ulso offered and he refused the Tammany Hall nomination as Judge of the Court of Common Pleas. Mayor Grant wanted to make him Counsel to the Corporation, but that, too, he declined, and his partner, William H. Clark, got the place. Last year he was put up to succeed the late Gen. F. B. Spinola in Congress and was again elected. te Mr. Cockran has been connected with many famous law cases. He was counsel for Jaco Sharp, was in the Squire-Flynn case and was leading counsel in the electrical execution cases. He was also retained by the aqueduct contractors in their suits against the city in- volving millions. Heis what is known asa high-priced lawyer, seldom appearing in any but the most important cases,and his income from his profession is salad to be very large. He is the recognized orater of Tammany Hall and gives his services freely to that or- There are few important moves made by the leaders in which he is not con- sulted. His adviceis particularly sought in the matter of judgeship nominations. For the details of political work and political maneuvering he has little taste. He is an honored member of the bar and Is respected and liked by his fellows. In poll- tics and in the law he fights openly and above board and makes few if any enemies. It 18 doubtful if he has a personal enemy in New York, with the possibie exception of William M. Ivins, and it is equally certain that even for that gentleman he entertains no persunal malice. Mr. Cockran has been married twice, but has no living children. His first wife was 6 sister of the Rev. Father Jackson ofr St. Ann’s Church in East Twelfth street. He had one child by her which died in infancy and the mother followed soon after. The — of wife and child was a severe blow to im. His second wife was Miss Rhoda E. Mack, the daughter of John Mack, a retired mer- chant of this city. She is said to have brought her husband a handsome fortune. Her mother was well known in society in this city a dozen years ago and gave Oscar Wilde his first reception in this country. Mrs. Cockran is a slender little woman with clear gray Irish eyes and a quiet manner. Bright and witty she isa good match for her talented husband, and often crosses swords with him in good-natured wordy combats, to the great delight ana amusement of their friends. Like her husband, too, she is fond of all outdoor sports. She accompanies her husband everywhere, and is never so happy as when in his company, and their home life is sunny and brightand pleasant. She has, it is said, a head for business also, and looks after her own property, much to the satis- faction of Mr. Cockra who dislikes to be bothered with the details of real estate man- agement. One of her great charms, too, is her voice. It is soft and low. Mr, Cockran’s office is in the Equitable Building on the fourth floor, facing Pine street, There is nothing elegant about it, but it is characteristic of the man. The pri- vate office is about 14 by 20 feet, bare of carpet except a rug in front of the big square, fla: top desk. w books line two sides of the room and a single large, square window looks out upon Pine street. ‘ihe chairs, cushioned with green leather, are large and roomy.

WHERE THE HEATHENS ARE TAUGHT THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION, The Chinese Sunday-school is one of the many remarkable things in American Church life? that with otber novelties have been grafted upon the old religious systems. It i a work which has received a great deal of attention as well as criticism, friendly and otherwise. The attention is due to thafact that missionary labor among the Chinese along the regular lines of Sunday-school endeavor is unique. The criticism has arisen from the strong prejudice against tte Ohinese and from the unusual zeal which lady church workers have evinced in tnis new missionary field. But the num der of Chinese Sunday - schools has grown rapidly until now a class for the heathen disciples of Confucius is a necessary adjunct of every modern churelgin cultured Boston and polyglot New York. The ladies have taken the deeper interest in the work be- cause they possess more patience than men, and perhaps because they have in their hearts a greater allowance of that milk of human kindness which obliterates those dark streaks of race rancor that sear the character ot men. But the ladies have not always been proof against @he fascinations of the wily Chinee, and Mongolian Sunday-schools pos- sess their full mead of mystery. However, cases of this kind are very rare and sporadic. THE SCHOOLS IN sr. LOUIS. There are in St. Louis four Chinese Sunday- schools,one at the First Presbyterian Church, another at the First Christian, a third at the Pilgrim Congregational Church, and the fourth at the People’s Church, Eleventh and Locust streets, under the superintendency of Charlies E. Ford. At 3 o’clock each Sunday afternoon the passers-by will note in the vicinity of Peo- ple’s Church a score or more sons ofthe Flowery Kingdom, arrayed in gorgeous na- tive tunics, or in neat, trim American clothes. Atthat nour the weekly lesson be- gins. In the parlor of the church on Locust street there may be about sixteen ladies, the class of twenty Chinese and the superintendent, Mr. Ford, The latter con- ducts the devotional exercises and reads a selection from the Bible. The class proper is then opened. Most of the scholars are in the primary grade, that is, they are under instructions in the deep mysteries of the English language as it is written and spoken. Individual in- struction is necessary with these scholars, and each of them has a special lady teacher. Instructor and pupil have each a small! well bound red colored text book, containing 144 pages of language lessons in English and Chinese, and a lexicon of 134 pages. THE VOCABULARY. There are 1,500 different wordsin the book, represented by the proper sound marks. The Canton dialect is used and not the more ele- gant and finished tongue of Pekin, because most of the Chinese in America, Australia and the Sandwich Islands are from the Can- ton district. The lessons ascend a scale from a number of simple sentences to a continued narrative, made up of words and phrases which occur most frequently in the Bible. By this system the language book canintime be iaid aside and the Bible used as a text-book with profit and instruction to the scholar. When the learner becomes advanced enough to take the Bible for his text-book he is given a Chinese edition of the Holy Book, and the teacher takes an English edition. By a close study of the sounds and expressions, under the direction of the teacher, the scholar becomes familiar with the terms and the symbols of the English language. The teacher reads a sentence andthe scholar fol- lows along with his Chinese text, and thus begins to establish a correlation between the tongues. The most advanced class put away their Anglo-Chinese text books and study from the English Bible. The scholars read a few verses andtheteacher gives an exposition of the subject matter to give the Chinese a thorough grasp on the ideas and sentiments. There are about eight in the class, and their progress toward perfect English is remark- able in view of the many idiomatic pitfalls and vocal stumbling blocks that beset the Chinese on learning dent. THE PRAYER IN CHINESE. The session of the Sunday school lasts until 4:30 o’clock and then the books are laid aside. The scholars do not, however, grasp their hats and hasten out. Instead, they rise and, in unison with the teachers reeite the Lord's prayer in thelr own tongue. The sounds which symbolize the prayer are as folllows, when committed to English letters, LORD’S PRAYER. Gaw foo joy hin, in yee ming shing, yee quawk lum Cawk. gee jee dock. shing. joy day yock bin. saw shewy jee lum. Cum yat sake W. y min, yan foo. chow ming gaw foo. mut bay gawshe. ching gaw chat awk. yee Quawk kin wing. guy in saw yow. gin gip sisi. garshawgin yar. Ah mun. Then all sing the doxology, as follows: DOXOLOGY. Jan mae shung dai wai maun fook gun Jan mae shung dat tin har jung yap Jan mae shung dai tin shung jung quan Jan mae shing foo shing tze shing saun. The Orientals then disperse, some to their laundries, others to native restaurants, others again to friends and relatives. The Chinese Sunday-school at People’s Church was founded in 1878 by Mr. Charies E. Ford and Rev. D. D. J x, = sionary who spoke the language.’ Rev. Jones did not remain here long, and Mr. Ford has always been the superintendent of the school. Classes were first held at the Y. M. C. A. rooms, then at 704 Olive street. But in 1880 Rev. Mr. Moody, the evangelist, raised the money to purchase the old Union M. E. church building at Eleventh and Locust streets and the classes were thereafter held in their present quarters. The schoolisa union work, supported by all Protestant denominations irrespective of creed. It is strictly non-sectarian, and the teachers are of every shade of religious belief. PROGRESS OF THE WORK. Since the school was established 500 schol- ars have come and gone. Some remaining two months, others two years, and others still longer. Mr. Ford says that the Chinese are birds of passage and seldom stay long in one place. But former scholars of the school seldom fail to apply for ag mission tothe Sun- day-schools fortheir race whenever they go elsewhere. The motives which lead Chinese to join the Sunday-school are tinged with a bit of worldliness. But this leaven is not wanting in the religious sacri- fices of the great bulk of Caucasian Christians, and the phase of woridliness which guides the cork shoes of the Chinee to the Sunday -school is a commendable one, for it is an ‘ambition to learn to read and speak English. All Chinese have this aim in view and when the spirit moves them to study the religion of the Americans and to quench the joss-sticks of Confucius, they need not be blamed if they take advantage of the oppor- tunity to study the language of the Amer!i- cans.

This advertisement, the authorities clatm, was a velled notice that the Curio Supply Agency had ‘‘queer’’ money for sale, and that fact, itis stated, is clearly proven by letters written to the concern and answered by them. It is stated that they were fairly flooded with business through the express companies and the malls, their customers being persons who were willing to ‘‘shove’’ counterfeit money. The stated price for their ‘‘goods’’ was at the rate of $22.50. for $150 worth of the _ spurious money. When a customer would bite at this and order the ‘‘goods,’’ a pack- of Confederate money would be sent through the express companies C. O. D. The **sucker’’ eee ts | it and paying those charges would find, on opening the pack- age, only a lot of old Confederate bills of $50 am. $10 and $i denominations. As a general rule no complaint would follow, as the cus- tomer himself had expected to receive coun- terfeit money, which he intended to‘ ‘shove.’’ It is said that the ‘‘gang’’ was genuine, and Was obtained principally through agents in Georgia and Florida. é COLLECTING EVIDENCE. When complaints began to come in to Post- office Inspector Dice several months ago, re- a the working of the gang, Deputy In- r Williams was put on the case.

Stephens makes the following statement to the Boonville corre- spondent of the Fosr- Disraron in answer to the“ charge of Jamies Hagerty, the well- known horseman, who says that Mr. Stephens, while receiver of the defunct Fifth National Bank of this city, advised him to sell a $5,000 claim for $3,050 to speculators: „goon after lentered upon my duties as Receiver I was told that Mr. Haggerty wa itor in the old Butchers’ and Drovers’ Bank of St. uls, which failed. He went to the President, and with his n leveled in his face, demanded bis money, and he gotit. When the Fifth National Bank fait he drove out to the residence of Mr. -Over- stalz, rang the door-bell and asked for Mr. Over- stalz, Mr. Overstaiz's brother presented himself. 1. asked him it hi« name was Overstals, and being informed that it was, ne demanded his mone ted in the broken Fifth National Bank. 1 The old genti@man insisted that he didn’t have his money, whereupon Mr. Hagerty pulled out his zun and fred away it him. This didn't avail, and in 2 fow days he presented himself at my desk. It 18 needless say that I was never foo bus to talk to Mr. Hagerty. It matter not how many customers were ahead of him or how much engaged Iwas I had plenty of time for him, and incidentally I always kept my eye on the gun. Mr. Hagerty was offered by a speculatore very small figure for his claim, ana he was disposed to sel).

Kreher, Walker Hilland W. H. Woodward. Some time was spent in discussingthe ap- plication for an appropriation of 52,5 to be expended by the st. Louis Spanish in adver- tising the festivities and the city generally in Mexico, The application was§submitted tothe Committee on Advertising for its considera- tion and report. The committee decided that the subcommittee on adyertising was an excellent judge of the expediency of such an outiay and referred the matter back with the recommendation that it make the requis!i- tion for the amount required. Mr. Kingsland warmly supported the plan of the Spanish club to advertise the festivities in Mevico and South America. It would be a most judicious expenditure in his judgment. Another application came from the Execu- tive Committee in charge of the Fourth of July celebration for financial encouragement. Web M. Samuel and V. T. spoke in favor of the request, laying rticular stress on the propriety of spending funds for patri- otic exhibitions. Another request came from Stephen Dellarella of the Columbian parade movement. Mr. Dellacella’s organ! zation is making extensive preparations for a display Oct. 12 in honor of the discovery of America. Mr. Dellacella did not appear in person, simply sending in a type-written statement. The committee adopted a gen- eral resolution commending the enterprise and patriotism involved in the movements and expressed regret thatit could not give them the financial support they deserved.

Zeal—The Bible Quoted to Support His Position Friends cf the Doctor Come to His Support- The Doctor's State ment and Defense. _ New York, July 2.—Dr. James B. Bell of Boston was not expelled from the Inter- national Hahnemannian Association at its convention, heia at Narragansett Pier on Jane 21, and some of the members of this association are indignant because the Board of Censors was not allowed to report on the tchartzes that had been made against him. Dr. Bell is a well-known bomcopathic physician in Boston. He was President of the Hahnemannian Association last year, and a few days before the convention assembled it became known that charges had been pre- ferred against him on two general counts. The first was based on an address mace by Dr. Bell before the Christian Alliance in Bos- ton onthe subject of divine healing. Those who were opposed to Dr. Bell asserted that im tuts sermon he advocated ‘‘Christian Sei- ence’* and the Fan Oure,’’ contrary to the deciaration of principles of the association. The second count was based on the statement that In his practice at the Massachusetts Ho- meopathic Hospital he had used the sur- geon’s knife in thirty-four cases where the disease might have been cured by medicines. This is contrary to the traditions of homeop- athy. The Hahnemannian Association is an off-shoot of the American Institute of Ho- meopathy and was organized In 1880. Since the convention some of the members have declared that the association, in its de- sire to suppress the charges against Dr. Bell and avoid dissension, rode rough shod over the constitution and all precedents. The action of the convention and Dr. Bell’s defense were made public yesterday. When Dr. Bell was notified several months ago that these charges had been made against him, he prepared his defense, and with the con- sent of the chairman of the board of censors, he sent it to every member of the associa- tion. The charges were preferred by Dr. Harlyn Hitchcock of No. 19 Broadway, and it ‘was known that three of the board of censors —— d them. Every member present, * \ gaid Dr.) Thomas Dillingham of 46 West Thir- had taken into the fami) - — 2 —— La have 3 im y repen S rash — 3 Halle came hore four 5 “eas ty-skxtu street last night, had received a copy of this pamphlet, in which Dr, Bell of- fered his explanation and defense. We had assembled in the convention for business. All of the members present except five were friendly to Dr. Bell, and it was understood that the report ofthe Board of Censors cleared him of the charges. We voted not to receive this report, however, toavolda useless dis- cussion. ‘*Dr. Bell is a very religious man and every one whoknew him knew that the charges were unfounded.’’ - This action left the charges against Dr. Bell still pending. Dr. Dillingham says that they will never be removed. As soonasthe convention voted not to receive the report of the Board of Cen- sors Dr. Dregler, the Chairman of the board, resigned, but he was persuaded to withdraw his resignation. Dr. Dushmore of Plainfield, who was also a member ofthe Board of Censors, was elected President to succeed Dr. Bell. The fact that Dr. Bell was not recalled did not mean that the association was dissatis- fled with him, however, forit is customary to elect new officers every year. Dr. Bell, in defense of the charge that in his address at the Park Street Church in Boston on Divine Healing From a Medical Standpoint’’ he advanced ideas that were in- consistent with the principles ofthe Hahne- mannian homeopathy, says: ‘*Divine heal- ing is a religious teaching nbeld by a small minority in the church universal in all centuries, and always end only by those who are truly orthodox in their general belief; and especially in the last quarter ofa century by a larger company in All the churches, who are looking for the personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ to set 1 4 the kingdom of God on earth. In prac- tice it consists simply in obeying James v, 14. ‘Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, annointing him with oll in name of the Lord; and l of faith shall save the sick and the shall ratse him up. It is, therefore, an to the author of homeopathy and of all good for his personal intervention, without the use of any means whatever. Like all God's gifts, itis free to all who can receive it, without money and without appeal directl a. Bell says that Divine healing’’ is not A system of medicine, it is not scientific it is no rival to homeopathy, an it ie ver different from Christian Science. My address, continues Dr. Bell, ‘‘was gwen before a religious meeting, upon what is to those who hold it a stricily religious subject, but to which I be- lieve it to be my right as a professional man to lend the weight of my professional name; that the weak faith of many suffering from incurable chronic disease might be strengthened in abandoning as most of them had done, allopathic dosing and drugging, and if A look at my address you will see that a large —.— of it is devoted to per- suading the bearers tuat it is far better to ive up this allopathic dosing even if they ave not faith in God. hut some of my colleagues have Inferred, Ithink, thatI was abandoning homeopathy and practicing divine healing. This might true ifwhatI defended was Christian scienca, but, as already explained, healing in answer to prayer does not belong to phys- icians or to healers, but to the church and to the elders, proebr tere or deacons, and, as 1 am neither one vf these, lam not competent and besidesthis | am devoted with the whole enthusiasm of my nature, as I have been “for these three years, to the study an practice of pore homeopathy with an ever-increasing ove of it and confidence in it, as one of God’s best gifts to man on the natural plane. Dr. Dillingham said that there was now harmony inthe association, and that there Was no foundation for the ramor that the or- 4 — would be disrupted as a result of he Narragansett convention.

Mr. Barker is nearly 6 years oldand has been sick besides, and he was upable to withstand the combined at- tack. He ran under the fire-escape stairs on the Twenty-seventh street side of the Garden Theater and turned his face tothe wall.

A Novel Scheme for Admission to the Exposition. To the smoker an unprecedented offer is made by the Greely Burnham Grocer Co., to obtain a free ticket of admission to the next St. Louis Exposition. They give a token or certificate of purchase, with every one of their celebrated Smokette cigars purchased by the consumer, and when the smoker has accumulated twenty of these tokens, he gets a free ticket of admission to the Exposition, from any store selling the Smokette Cigar (and most of them do). If a man is much of asmoker, it seems he would accumulate enough tokens to get sev- eral tickets between now and the time set for opening the great St. Louis Exposition, SENT TO KENTUCKY.

NEW YORK BOXING MASTERS HAVE MANY OF THEM FOR PUPILS. Husbands, Present and Prospective, Will Do Well to Take Notice—Some of the Secrets of the Amateur Woman Boxer —The Names of the Pupils Cannot He Divulged. Special Correspondence SUNDAY Tosr-Disr ren. New York, June 90.—The pugilistic art is gaining popoularity among the women of to- day. They do not aspire to the ring, but the indications are that many of them will be- come fighters. Prospective husbands had better beware, not only of concealed claws, but of well-trained fists. There is an air of mystery surrounding the advancement of lovely woman in this branch ofscience. Thisis accounted for by the tra- dition that pugilism sa vors of vulgarity. Even Michael Donovan admits that it would be a **Dreach of confidence“ to give away the names of his feminine pupils. Prof. Austin also knows a thing or two about the pummel- ing and thumping ability of New York women, which he seems disposed to keep locked up in his own bosom. Instructors in boxing claim that none of the ladies whose fists are educated under their supervision, have professional aims. None of them have proclaimed the intention to emulate the wife of Mr. Swipes’’ of Bowery distinction. Neither have the laurels won by the famous Hattie Leshe stimulated in Others the ambition to outrival her or do her up. Hattie Leslie and her contem- porartes still have the field unchallenged. The women who take boxing lessons do It for physical culture. Rumors have occasion- ally spread from Washington, that advanced center of feminine development, concerning the pugilistie studies of daughters of Con- gress men and others In need of temporary diversions. But the thing really exists in the great metropolis. The women and girls ar- range themselves in select parties or classes. Instruction is given by the sparring master tooneatatime. There are several systems of boxing with which they are familiarized. dome masters teach all the movements first and then let pupils don the gloves fora scientific encounter. When a reporter of the WorRLD assigned to investigate the new course of study of New York women for her sister readers of the Sun- DAY POST-DISPATOCH took a lesson she was at once given aformidable pairof boxers and ‘ta show.’’ The professor first instructed her how to hold the band in order to deliver a telling blow. Under his guldance she turned the palm of the hand up, then clenched her Ast, giving the back knuckles prominence. Then her elbow was pulled back in the rear till her ribs fatrly cracked. Next his profes sorship proceeded to illustrate the proper movements by a series of menacing blows aimed at the reporter’s nose, then glancing. of her earand finally approximating her front teeth, while she stood before him with what composure she could muster. These motions were modestly repeated by the WORLD woman, who went through the per- formance several times. Then summoning courage to do the act bravely, she threw back her elbow, let it fi forward again, expanded her biceps an gathered momentum to send a tremendous thud. In another second an assault was made which ought to have made the pro- fessor reel or get a Poe of the starry firmament, Instead of collapsing, however he calmly smiled and said, ‘Mme! i make a fighterof youyet.’’ The reporter felt her bosom swell with pride. In the first lesson the left hand is the offensive and the right hand the defensive organ, Next the 88 took a turn at doing the striking, with a view to imparting the art of defense, The position of the arm for warding Ott a blow was shown. It was held up ready to repelattack. ‘‘Look out! I’m going to hit,’’ threatened the professor, with a fero- cious attitude, but a mild and reassuring smile. There was a foreible twang of the funny bone, a sound wrench of the flexor and a general collapse of the defensive arm. The reporter realized thatshe had been hit. It had been improperly done. The right el- bow was raised an inch too high. it was tried again. This time no pain was felt at a blow of double force. Now watch my exe,“ said the instructor, ‘*to see when Iam about to strike.’’ The re- porter had a propensity to keep both eyes fixed on the formidable gloves. It takes some time to learn to discover the pugiliatic intent in your antagonist’s eye. I you look at my fist,’’ continued the box- ing- master, I can pretend to strike you here,“ ashe made a feint at the reporter’s ribs. ‘‘Instead of that I deliver a sound crack right there,’’ and the big fist, witha nasty turn, stopped within an inch of the reporter’s nose. Ihen the professor held himself up fora target. The reporter gathered her scattered muscular forces and proceeded to level a series of puorly directed blows at different parts of his anatomy. Before the lesson was completed some training of the feet was necessary. Thelegs 9 — almost as much educating for prise fighting as they do for skirt dancing. It seems to be advantageous to have the hipd foot about four or five feet from the other and on no account to lift either foot from the floor. In case any stepping becomes imperative, it must be done in a very light and airy fashion. This was gracefully illus- trated by the boxing master as he shook his fists up and down in the vicinity of the WORLD woman’s face. These terrors are bravely met by the women who belong to boxing classes. They consider themselves amply repaid for ah occasional assault by the physical beauty that they acquire. They become erect and elastic, their shoulders straight and their chests full. The free poramre en following the violent exercise keeps the complexion pure, While, the full, deep breathing imparts & pretty pink to their cheeks. Their arms are envied by the other women, who often wonder how er get them. Most women like exercise of some kind, but if they are disposed to be indolent they don’t choose boxing. Boxing brings into play every muscle ofthe body. Corsets must of course be removed before engaging in pugi)- istic combat. However advantageous the artificial stays or props may be 447 the gloves are rendered practically useless by them. Abundant room must be allowed for the expansion of the muscles of the abdomen. The waist is made larger, and the hips and shoulders are developed proportionally. A suitable costume for boxing is the regulation gymnasium outfit—a short skirt and biouse with canvas shoes.

The week before this last was remarkable for the duli- Mess and depression in the cash market, so extreme, in fact, thatthe spot article sunk im value below the price of July, something extraordinary in this market. An improved demand has lately sprung up, and it was suf- @icient to restore the premium on cash No. 2 red, that grade selling yesterday at ie for regular and ‘77%c East side. Buying for export account was the recuperating factor. It was asserted that this export business was only on consign- ment, no actual orders from abroad calling for the wheat, and the buyers stated that the were only made because the buy- ers were idle and vessels could be obtained at cheap rates at New Orleans, but that con- signments could be hasarded at present fig- ures indicates that this market could not be much out ofiine with Europe. The stage of water in the river is so high and ocean freignts so cheap that wheat can be laid down across the water at much less cost than this time last year. ie stated, on the quiet, that the barge une will move outa large amount of wheat this month and next, if the price remains in its present neighborhood or goes lower, and this transportation company will take this wheat, even if it is only to keep their barges busy. An export movement of several hundred thousand bu a month from this mar- ket would worry the shorts greatiy, and if on top of that came a wet harvest, delayed movement and any kind of a spring wheat scare—?

It is also rumored that some good-sized sales have been made for July and August delivery to Liv and Irish ports, but all particulars have n withheld. At any rate foreigners are bidding —— prices freely enough for forward delivery, but millers think that val ues are about as low as theyare going to go,and are not disposed to accept such tenders to any greatextent. Receipts of flour during the week were 23,701 bbls and shipments 20,305, The output was again reduced, amounting to 81,550 Dbls, as compared to 34,250 the week before. Anumber of the mills are closed down in order to get their machinery in good shape for the newcrop, but one large mill has doubled its capacity by running day Stocks of ur on July 1, 1892. were 60,180 bbls, as semparne to 60,460 on June 1, 1892, and 41,360 on July 1,1891. The in- spections during June were 80,777 bols, of which 2,657 were graded and 28,120 not graded. * There is not much news in regard to cotton, all the markets generally ruling dull, the two Fourth of July holidays materially add- ing to the depression. A noteworthy feature was the strength developed in all American cotton markets early in the week, which, in view of the weakaess abroad, was quite re- markable, and was the result of the gradually lessening apprehension in regard to the Hatch anti-option bill. The fear of adverse legislation, however, still hangs heavily over the market, and allattention is directed to the report of the Senate Judiciary committee, which is to be made next Thurs- day. The Liverpool market, after reacting a little, again became weak and in buyers’ favor. The depression abroad is due to small trade, and as importers are discouraged at the poor demand from spinners, they are forc- ing their cotton upon the market by deliver- ing upon arrival contracts during July. There was no improvement in trade at Man- chester, orders being apparently withheld under the influence of falling prices of cotton. Business in yarns, especially, was unsatisfactory. Despite the pressure to sell, buyers are scarce, except for small quantities to meet their immediate re- quirements. Crop prospects show no special change. Thetemperature is hich, but the heatis being relieved by general showers. The critical period is rapidly approaching, when the plant over the entire cotton belt takes on its fruit, and crop reports will be more of an influencing factor from now on. The local market was fairly active, sales dur- ing the week aggregating 3,987 bales. Quo- tations were reduced 1-166 on Monday, 1-l6c on Friday and 1-léc yesterday. Chat From ’Chance.

Frank Ryan will shortly leave forthe East and will probably remain during the summer months. 7 = * W. B. Westcott & Co. in the past ten years have received the flrst new wheat from II- linois during six of these years. Mr. W. nat- urally prides himself on this fact. The H. J. O’ Neill Grain Co., Winona, Minn., in which Mr. Phil Brockman or the Brock- man Commission Co. is interested, sold dur- ing the past season over 56,500,000 ba barley, exceeding their previous season by about 2,000,000 bu. The production ot flour in Hungary has about doubled inthe last twenty years. In 1870 the quantity fabricated was 4,709,600 cwts. ; or equivalent to 12,559,000 bu of the raw material, whereas in 1891 the product ob- tained was 9,536,600 cwts., or equal to 25,420,- 000 bu of wheat. ; al * * It is expected that, beginning one week from to-morrow, Chicago market quotations will once more be posted on Change. Any one who wishes them,even the bucket shops, can obtain these quotations by making ap- plication to the telegraph companies. It is stated that one reason Senator Wash- burn will not press for an early vote on the anti-option bill is that an amendment in- ciuding flour among the articles that cannot be sold for future delivery was to be tacked on to the bill. * * * Another phenomenal growth of corn story is floating around on the floor. Mr. JimCockrell of Spencer & Cockrell went down to Webb City last Saturday, and observing the corn crop on his way, he saw it was about knee high. Yesterday on his way back the corn was breast high, and still growing, ‘‘and I can prove this by McGrady,’’ says Mr. Cockrell. 7 * = In the United States Senate last Tuesday, the Agricultural appropriation bill was passed, with an amendment providing ‘‘that the monthly report issued on the tenth day of each month shall embrace only a state- ment of the condition of the crops by States, and in the United States, with such comments and comparisons with other months and years as may be useful for illustrating the above matters. * * . A new firm has entered the grain commis- sion business inthis city. Itis composed of Frank T. Washington, whohas been many ears identified with the grain trade of St. ulis in the capacity of Supervising In- spector of the State Grain Inspecting Depart- ment, and before thattimea member of the St. Louis Board of Grain Inspection. The other member is Mr. I. H. French, formerly a leading grain merchant of Kansas City. ‘the firm name is Washington & French and they are located at NO. 27 South Main street. Both gentlemen are thoroughly conversant with the business and welland favorably known throughout the country. * * 7 The amount of wheat on passage from Cali- fornia tothe United Kingdom has been re- duced from about 12,000,000a short time ago to about 6,000,000. Of the total of about 20, 000,000 bu On passage not including flour, June 21, one-quarter was from California and the Pacific Coast, 5,407,000 bu from British India, 1,400,000 bu from Chili, 2,000, 000 from the Ar- gentine, 1,700,000 bu from Australasia and 8,000,000 from Atlantic ports. Of the flour a quantity equal to 1,264,000 bu was on passage trom Atlantic ports, $16,000 from Pacific ports and the balance scattering.

In my opinion there will be a good corn crop raised, for the young corn is strong and will stand a July drouth (should we have one) better than if it were more forward. — a - The London Standard, June 15, said, after giving a list of ten large provinces where serious damage had been done in Russia: As this is the officialestimate thus early in the yearitis not difficult todeduce the conclu- sionthatthe general outlook is ve much worse than that of last year, when only at the end of summer was the harvest declared to have failed in seventeen provinces. The failure in the Caucasus, whose stores un- doubtedly saved the situation last autumn, cannot be viewed without apprehension, coupled with the fact that whereas at the commencement of the last famine there was a certain stock of grain in hand, there is now none at all. The struggle against the locusts is being carried on with more vigor than success. In the steppes of Tourood and Sari-Jai 10,000 of the population are engaged in attempting to stem the invasion. Nineteen thousand roubles have been given to the Governor of Tiflis for their extermination, and a further sum of 8,000 has been Sent thither, with 7,000 for Signath, and 1,000 for Bortchalinss. Last week several enormous swarms passed over the country on either side of Moscow. The feld mamot is being destroyed in hundreds of thousands, but remains master of the situa- tion in the southern provinces. a * Beerbohm’s report, says the New York Post, on the India wheat crop this year as 64,000,000 du less than last year—practically a disastrous crop falilure—met with an ex- ceptional indifference in this market. yester- day, mainly due toa general disbelief in the correctness of the report. ve statement as _ — created intense excitement and market ac- tivity.

Later information, however, is said to point to rather a less en- couraging prospect, though not to a serious extent, and which, it is reported, somewhat influepced a more steadyand firmer closing of the English markets to-day. From the Street. The various railroads seeking the fruit trade are rapidly seeking new names. The Orange and Orange Belt Route has been her- alded for some time, but the Great Water- melon Route is making the most noise just now. Ofcourse the Strawberry Route will soon be announced, to be followed later by the Gooseberry Route. — a oe The tomato crops of Southern Illinois and Arkansas are being steadily damaged and re- duced by the insects, worms and unfavora- ble weather. The growers declare spraying usually proves useless, as a shower comes along and washes off the medicine for the bugs. Thetomato crop all over appears to be enormous and some reduction of the visi- ble supply may prove more beneficial than injurious to all concerned. + = * The receivers and handlers of strawberriés who for some time past had given up all idea of seeing any more on the market awoke to the realization that strawberries were still around when they found yesterday mornin several stacks of the ‘‘Gandy’’ variety pil N in front of a prominent fruit house on Third street. More will be delivered on July 4, which will close the season. * * * The very mild, pleasant weather of the past week changed the desire of many of tae produce and commission men to get away and a further postponement of a trip to their seaside cottages was made. Some of those who went to Europe earlier in the season will soon be here. Fred Hanelson will be home in a few days, and intimated in a recent let- ter that a trip to Europe is not all his fancy painted, foreach day deepens his desire to be back home again and he has shortened his trip a week or more, feeling quite satisfied with two months abroad. it is entirely too quiet over there to sult Fred, and be is sigh- ing for a few hours of the familiar scenes on Third street among the boys. As a result ofa number of meetings ofthe produce operators here a Produce Exchange bas at last been organized. The principal men in the trade believe some good results will arise through an organization of this kind, andthat through united acticn man of the abuses that have crept into the busi- ness can be eliminated. A charter from the State will soon be had, and the securing ofa ball and a convenient home forthe Exchange will follow. Reports of its progress and pro- ceedings will appear from time to time in this column. St. Louls has long felt the need of an organization of this kind. * * — Friday morning’s busy scenes in the pro- duce quarters were enlivened by a regular set-to between a peddler anda granger who hadalotoffruit to sell. A dispute arose over figures asked by the farmer, who got very mad at the hawker, and intimated he was not afraid and went far enough to say he could wipe the sidewalk with any one of them, He was promptly accommodated anda very iarge crowd surrounded the scrappers, but from startto finish the granger, a short, broad-shouldered fellow, got the worst of it. The police atthe time were busy trying to raise the blockade always existing along Third street early in the morning. = > a Columbus, O., fruit dealers have organizeda ‘‘Columbus Fruit and Produce Jobbers’ Exchange. The organization, which is to be a counterpart of the New York Exchange, and bas for its object to protect, foster and develop the fru:t and produce trade of that city. The real object of the exchange isto prevent ‘‘gluts’’ in the mar- ket, andtokeep informed of the shipments toarrive. Nearly allthe leading firms have become members of the kxchange, and the others are expected to join soon. ‘The pres- ent members are T. E. Pritchard & Co., De Witt & Co., Evans & Turner, Sutton Bros., Murdock, Miller & Co., Jacob Schrader, Henry flurkopp & Co., E. * Hendrickson and T. W. O’Briea. The * New potatoes and tomatoes overshadowed all other stuff offered among the commission men and produce operators during the past week. There was a marked scarcity of peaches, pears, apples and plums, which are usually abundantat this time. The tomato receipts werelmmense, 3 to 5 cars comiag from Mississippi alone, daily. The offerings from Arkansas, Tennessee and Southern Illinois were also considerable in the aggre- gate, and tomatoes were stacked up every- where along the street. Prices declined steadily, and Mississippi must now give way tothe more northern growers and shippers. She had a great season, however, and but for the crops maturing so late further north, would have a regular slaughter on prices.

Last week was charucterized by moderate receipts in all departments and a marked lack of first-rate offerings. The great feature of the week was the advance in nearly all lines. Choice butcher hogs are 60c to 70c higher than ten days ago and the lower grades are e to40c. Choice stock brought as high as $5.75—the biggest figure hogs have reached, itis said, for several years. The cattle market is 35c to 50c higher than ten days ago. The sheep market has been the most unsatisfactory department in these yards; receipts have been actually meager. AS a consequence good prices have prevailed and a better line of goods might have enabled shippers to realize rather more for their con- signments, The market closed on Saturday generally strongand every sign thatthe upward ten- dency would be maintained. A gratifying feature of the latter part of the week was that this market was fully abreast of the market everywhere. This is especially true of hogs. There is no reason why they should not be; hogs are worth as much here tothe local butcher as in Chicago, and pork is worth as much tothe consumer for food purposes as in Chicago. There is every evidence, therefore, that this market will continue to be as high as any; at any rate, the Union Stock Yards people don’t intend to admit that there can be any successful competition against St. Louis as a hog market. FOURTH OF JULY. The Union Stock Yards will be closed on Monday, and no market will be made until Tuesday at8a. m. Large receipts are anticl- pated on that day, and in view of recent light consignments and also of no receipts what- ever from Saturday to Monday inclusive, a strong demand at high prices are almost sure to prevail. The present price of hogs 1s phenomenal. It has been some years since these figures were reached. At prevailing uotations it would seem that the best thing the farmer could do would be to put his corn into hogs and ship them to town. What this market, especially, wants Is first- class butchers’ and packers’ stock. Such Is sure of bringing the nighest possible prices. Consignments of ordinary and common stock are not likely toturn out so satisfactorily to the shipper’s satisfaction.

The dog best and most widely known to San Francisco sportsmenisa portly cunning old hound belonging to C. D. Ladd, on Kear. ney street. He is a strange mixture ot the blood and the foxhound equally divided and he seems to have inherited the keen nose and energetic characteristic of the one combined most advantageously (fora dog of his incli- nations) withthe nervous excitability and relish for the sport of the other. Long ago his master called him ‘‘Andy,’’ but with the experience of years the hound grew in selfishness and intelligence so he now enjoys the appellation of Andy, the Bum. Often he is simply Bum, but still he re- mains the same extraordinary animal, partly street arab 3 sport and mostly tramp, with nomadic and predatory instincts. His most famous feats are long trips into the country alone in quest of game and theestab- lishment of a free lunch route, which bas given him a means of livelihood. Last evening Bum lay stretched out upon a sheet of paperintherear of his master’s store, dreaming of his last free meal or his lonely tripto the Sonoma redwood forests after deer. He is the most notionest dog I ever heard of,’’ remarked an attendant, whom Bum re- wards as one of his particular friends. When Bum takes a notion once into his head nothing can change him, He goes where he likes and does as he pleases, but always makes this place his headquarters. Take that dog and you'll not und any ke him. Few dogs know where to go for their grab, but he never worries about his meals. „That is all settled in his mind. He has his route of free lunches and saloons. Sometimes he grows tired of the city and takes to the country. He justs trots down to the ferry, sails over to Sausalito and then takes a seat in the baggage car to the red- woods. We have heard from him in Sonoma, Cazadero and Glen Ellen frequently, where he goes by himself to the deer grounds familiar to him. There he hunts deer and small game for a week ata time and then re- turns home. How does he travel? Well, ali the con. ductors, engineers and brakemen on the North Pacific Coast Rallway know him well, and he is very friendly with them. They let him lie in the baggage car and he drops of wherever it suits him. And how does he live up there? Nothing suits him better than will nice fresh game. which he catches and relishes more than his freelunch diet. He dearly loves to go hunting. „Philo Jacoby, the Schuetzen King, killed several deer with him, and says he d the best nose for deerof any dog he ever shot over. But Bum loses heart now that the deer law stops hunting, and he strolls away to trail deer alone. When 1 go hunting small game I have to playtricks at the railroad depot to leave him hind. 1 wait tin the train is rrr: and then jump on. He fol- lows me a few blocks, but soon gives up the run in disgust.’’ Are you not afraid of losing him?“ Not a bit of it. He knows the city vetter than myself and gets around everywhere, Look at him now—he Is satisfied with a paper bed. Atnight he would get uponthe cases and take a rug or cloth to lie upon. He wants to have things comfortable and to enjoy him- self either out hunting in the country by — getting a bone or sleeping. That's um. A HEAD WAITER.

The Reptile Had Been in His Lungs Since the War. From the Louisville Courier-Journal. J. W. Weber lives at 1326 West Chestnu street. He is a cigarmaker, but has not been in good health for years. He was in the army during the war. Once when his regiment was on a retreat, and while weary and thirsty fromalong march, hecame to a spring in the woods, from which gusbed a pure steam of cool, limpid water. He knelt on the sod and drank like a horse that has been blowing all through a hot — 2 As drew in the water he felt something jump in his mouth and go down his throat. He had a strange, choky feeling for days, but . grew 80 accustomed to this tingling in his breast that he did not notice it. But his lungs were never sound after that, and he was constantly try- ing to cough something up that would not come. Of late he has n growing worse. Last week he was taken ve ill and was threatened with erysipelas. st Saturday he was seized with a violent spell of cough- ing. He says he felt something come up out of bis throat that he had been Coughing after ever since the war. His son says he saw a queer looking dead animal fall on the floor. It was preserved until Dr. Hood, the physi- clan, came, and was turned over to him. Mr. Weber says this is what he swallowed at that spring during the war. He has been im- proving ever since Saturday and will get we Dr. Hood is comer he believes the ay * 0 the opinions of all the doctors on the subject. The animal is some sort of a reptile. It has the head of a fish and the body ofa lizard, though there are no le It is six inches long and a half inch wide. The supposition is that the reptile was suffocated when it went down the man’s throat, if the story is true. PIGTAIL ETIQUETTE.

Louis Will Celebrate the Fourth as They Did Then. 7 * 9 4 K. 1 7 . ; " AGREAT PARADE, FIREWORKS AND FUN oe AT THE FAIR GROUNDS. 7 . nu a conversation resulting from an acci- dental meeting a few weeks ago, several dus ness men of the city remarked about the decay of the patriotic spirit of Americans. The celebration of the Fourth of July was gradually being relegated tothe small boy and the doctor, the men seeming to think the holiday, with its noise and powder smell, a thorough nuisance. The talk, at first rather banteringly, got a little more serious. 98 we calla meeting and talk this thing over practically,’’ suggested Web M. Samuel. E. O. Stanard added that this was a’ good idea, A little meeting was held in Court _ Room No. 5 at the Court-house. About a dozen men were there, among them Judge Jacob Klein. There was nothing of bun- tombe but plenty of business. A call was issued for a larger meeting, and presently the National Birthday Association, composed of several hundred of the most infiu- ential men of the city, of all nation- alities, had sprung full armed from the heads which concefved that idea in that chance street conversation. This associa- tion is going to give St. Louis people and vis- itors to this city a chance to see a Fourth of July celebration to-morrow that will fill their nostrils 2 the scent of salty tea and their Sars with the echo of Lexington cannon. There willbe a great street parade of the military and civic societies, and a day of fireworks, feasting andoratory at the Fair Grounds, which will be thrown open to the public free. MAKING THE PREPARATIONS. The association has done a gigantic work already, not only in arranging for the cele- bration, but in making it known abroad that a renaissance of the old-fasnioned Fourth of July was about to occur in St. Louis. The best adverttsing ideas of the Fall Festivities Association was drawn on, and some new ones were used. Great posters, representing Uncle Sam in a triumphal car,arawn through the empy- rean by a dozen screaming cagies, were scattered through the towns and cities of the Southwest, and advertising in newspapers s done liberally. The association exercised judgment in choosing its officers and Executive Committee. To President Samuel were added Stephen Delacella, Secretary; Ford A. Wind, Vice-President, and Alvin D. Reed, Treasurer. Councilman William T. Anderson was made the Chairman of the Executive Committee, the other members of the committee being A.

The Queen has been graciously pleased to confer the dignity of a peerage of the United Kingdom upon His Royal Highness Prince George of Wales, K. G., by the name, style and title of Duke of York, Earlof Inverness and Baron Killarney. Stnce the fourteenth century the title of Duke of York has never been unoccupied tor very long by some member of the reigning family of England. There is said to have been an Earlof York in the person of Otho, who was the son of Maud, eldest daughter of Henry II., and who eventually became Em- peror in Germany. The fact is uncertain, but it is certain that the 3 connected with the County of York has since then always Deen a dakedom. and has only been held by near relations of the sovereign; in fact, every Duke of York previous to Prince George has been efther a son, a brother or an uncle of the reigning king. Edmund Plantagenet, the youngest son of Edward III., was the first to hold the title. Having been Karl of Cambridge since the at- tainment of his majority in 1362, he was cre- ated Duke of York twenty-three years later by his nephew, Richard III. He was the founder of the House of York, which in the War of the Roses so long contested the right of sovereignty with its great rival, the House of Lancaster. The second Duke was killed at the battle of Agincourt. His descendant Richard, son of the Earl of Cambridge an Anne Mortimer—a granddaughter of Edward III., descended from Lionel—Duke of Clar- ence—claimed through his mother the right to ascend the throne during the troubled life time of hiskinsman, Henry VI. He had held the Protectorate of the Kealm during the in- sanity of the King, whose frst act upon re- covering was to drive him from the court, He was killed im the battieof Wakefield, and by order of the Queen, infuriated by his attempt to deprive her son of the throne, his head wascut off, and, witha papercrown, laced in mockery over the gate of the city of ork, But he was soon avenged by his eldest son, the fourth Duke, who gained a decisive victory at Towlon,and became King as Ka- ward IV. Upon the second son of this sover- eign, Richard Plantagenet, the title of Duke of York was conferred in 1474. He was mur- dered in the Tower during the reign of Rich- ard III., together with his brother, Edward V. This wasin i483. Only eight years after- ward thea was revived, for the second son of Henry VII., the Prince who afterward ascended the throne as Henry VIII. Now for more than 100 years (Henry had become Prince of Wales In 1606) the title was dormant, until, in 1604, it was conferred upon Charles Stuart—better known as Charles 1. James „ second son of this King, held it from the 1648 until he came tothe throne in . eer another 2 — thirty-one , rhes Augustus. brother of — A., was created Duke of York, with the additional title of Albany.

In the days when the great city companies practically controlled the trade of the metropolis, few e — I Dining Table Standard. were more flourishing than the Armours & Braziers Co. It was established in the four teenth century, and dealt in all manner of weapons offensive and defensive, On the walis of the exhibition rooms are to De Statuetie ot a Lioness. seen the handicraft of the workmen who first organized the company, which has con- tinued In existence ever since, although the demand for its peculiar wares has long ceased. Here are seen mace, guisaume and curtalax, shield, lance and morgenstein, coats of chain - mail, casques, tilting helmets, harness of proof, sword and dagger. But these warlike implements belong to times long passed. The Armorers’ company is no longer composed of armours. The more modern exhibit makes manifest the develop- ment ot an art on lines that have carried it far from its origin. The armorers no longer manufacture weapons of war, but have turned their skill into the production of the most cunning metal work. The sword biades have not been beaten into pruning hooks, but into the most delicate Brass Hanging Lamp. iron work. The exhibition of art brass and copper work is a revelation to those who have never studied the history of this branch of industry. 1 The most numerous exhibits were trays, plaques, pots and panels in brass or copper, **y-wrought’’ in bold or graceful designs. Here and there a William Morris branch of pomegranates or a Kate Greenaway bough of cherries greeted one as a good old friend; but most of the designs were original. Among the door-plates, of which there was a very interesting variety, one on which the design represents a mermaid playing among coral reefs and floating sea-weeds was very charming. The fire-drawer was one of the exhibits of the Birmingham Guild of Handicraft, which, by the way, was very well represented in nearly all the different departments of the show. A number of hanging-lamps were a comment on the striv- ing of the age for more light.“ It is greatly to the credit of the present-day Armourer that he invites craftsmen and women from all parts of the country to compete for prizes at his handsome City Hall, which in the dim and distant past was first raised, as it were, on the proceeds of implements of war, and now, mits latter days, helps to spread a craft that can only flourish in time of peace.

ONLY OCCASIONAL SPURTS OF ACTIVITY Uncertainty as to Reading Levels the Markets—Heavy Rains and Crop Dam- age Add Their Burdene—Outside In- * fluences Help to Lift Prices—A Slight Revival Felt—Speculative Trade. r WALL STREET, NEW York, July 2,—There were a few important events during the month of June that led to a temporary spurt of activity on the Stock Exchange, but other- wise dullness generally prevailed, and taking the situation allinall the period under re- view wasanything but satisfactory to the great majority of people in Wall street. The representatives of large moneyed interests manifested very little disposition to take part in the regulation of values, and on many Gays this work was leftto the room traders anda few prominent bears, and thus busi- ness most of the time was ofa purely profes- sional character. At the outset speculation was menaced by threatened legal complica- tions in the matter of the renewed Reading combine, and by heavy rains at the West, which caused more or less damage to the growing crops and led to depression in the shares of the grain-carrying roads. There were other unsettling forces which presented formidable barriers to an enhancement in quotations, and probably the most important of these was embodied in a revival of the ex- port movement of gold in Europe, which, though at first light and at frequent intervals checked by the action of the sterling ex- change market, subsequently reached highly significant proportions, the outflow for one week having reached $7,100,000, and that of the succeeding week $5,250,000. The disturbing element just alluded to not only created a feeling of uneasiness on this side ; but their influence extended to London, where operators in American securities be- came somewhat alarmed and sold in our market. The selling, however, except upon a few occasions, was quite moderate, but stillthe movement, in consideration of the recent comparatively limited operations of the Britishers, appeared quite heavy. The impression prevailed, however, that the marketing of securities by London was on several days in the interest of certain bear cliques in this city, and while this feeling no doubt tended to lessen the effect of the op- erations, the fact still remained that London had parted with some of her holdings of Americans, which was evidenced in the arrival of certificates on some ot the steamers that reached this port in June. In addition to the situation here, it must be said that there was some excuse for the foreign selling of securities, because al- most throughout the entire month matters on the other side were in anything but an en- Viable condition, disturbances of both a finan- cial and political nature having arisen there at frequent periods. It could hardly be expected, in view of the surrounding con- ditions, that the market should have done anything but move in a downward direc- tion, still it is proper to remark thatthe de- cline was not as pronounced as the advocates of lower prices somewhat confidently looked for. True,the shares of some corporations around which some uncertainty hovered and against which the bearish fraternity made special demonstratings, depreciated to a considerable degree, but, taken altogether, the market held very well under the circum- stances, and the chief effect of the unfavor- able factors at work seemed to be more in curtailing operations than in bringing about any general shrinkage in values, as dealings, except at occasional intervals, were of a lim- ited nature. For a spell the bears held high carnival, but e natural influences began to tell, and while the leaders of the bull side made no appreciable attempt to take advantage of the 1 which the change dfforded them, the market started up- ward, At this juncture those outside of the four walls ofthe stock Exchange evinced more disposition to take a hand in lifting prices dy sending in moderate purchasing orders, but the lack of interest displayed by the foremost manipulators in the Dull ranks soon led this class toabandon their operations, but the result was that the general public for the most part showed very little concern over the movements of securities, and thus a highly essential element to a rising market was removed. The report of the Government statisticians as to the state of the wheat crop on June 1, was exceedingly favorable and sur- passed all previous expectations. The re- rt gave the acreage of winter wheat at 8 and that of spring at 100.3 per cent, while the average condition of the two crops was 88.3 and 92.3 respectively. The activity and buoyancy that followed these events eclipsed anything witnessed on the Stock Ex- change for alongtime. There wasa perfect stampede among the bears and the rush to cover carried prices up sharply. This spurt of animation, however, was only of short duration, and during the latter part of the month speculation narrowed perceptibiy, and there were frequent intervals when trading presented an appearance bordering on positive stagnation, with a sagging in prices at intervals. This return to lethargy was occasioned by unfavorable reports in re- gard to the corn crop, foods in the Upper Mis- sissippi and Missouri Valleys, the poor traffic statement for May made by the Burlington & Quincy, large exports of gold and the troubles of the Richmond Terminal. The heroic efforts made to reorganize this vast property were just as fruitless as ever, and the hope that Drexel, Morgan & Co. would take the matter in band, which frequently buoyed up the securities of the company, was finally abandoned when that firm in a letter refused to undertake the task for the reason that complete control would not be turned over to them. The appointment of receivers for Richmond Terminal, Richmond & Danville, and East Tennessee, Virginia & Georgia formed an important part of the financial history of Juve, At different periods New England was more or less a disturbing element, particularly When the controlling interest in the Housatonic road was sold to Messrs. Morgan and Kockafeller. Other mat- ters of an adverse nature came onthe surface every now and then, but still the market showed considerable resisting power and such deoclipes as were recorded were not marked except in special cases, while some stocks actually registered a pronounced im- provement, A note rthy feature of the month, and one which would undoubtedly have created a sharp movement in values generally but for the apathetic condidion of speculation, was the declaration of divi- dends by several of the lines in the Vander- bilt system, which were accompanied by traffic statements of a highly gratifying on a 6 ent: BER, as . ater yeas enjoyed.

C., about fifty-seven yearsago. His parents removed to Alabama when he was 2 years old and his primary edu - cation was acquired in the schools of that State. He entered Howard College, Marion, Ala., and was graduated from the institution at the head of his class, delivering the vale- dictory address at the age of 19. He studied at the University of Virginia, and after being admitted to the bar at eS ed mem Ala to the nk of Brigad General © ra 0 riga ler- * wounded several times in different en ments and was for a time a in Fortress Monroe. Af war Gen. Johnson returned to Marion and re- sumed the practice of law. he ac- cepted the position of commander of the cadets at the University of Alabama at Tus- caloosa, resigning to accept the Presidency of the State Academy, Charleston, 5. At the commencement of the _ anti-lottery campaign he was ur by the anti-lottery committee tocome to Louisiana to ald in the contest. He was finally selected as the representative of the anti-lottery com- mittee in the Eastern States for the purpose of moulding a sentiment favorable to the cause, and raising funds for its advance- ment. His services were Valuable and a great measure of the success of the cause is due to his exertions. THE FLOOD. Railway Traffic in the South Crippled— Heavy Rain at Quincy. NEW ORLEANS, La., July 2.—The situation on the Illinois Central is serious. The crev- asse water rose yesterday all the way from Kenner to Ponchatoula, in some places cover- ing the tracks six inches deep. Traffic was impeded considerably and it took the mail train four hours to cover the twenty-four miles from Frenier to New Orleans, At night locomotion proved even more difficult, The accommodation train, which was to have ar- rived at 7:05 o’clock yesterday evening, was abandoned at Manchac, The mail train due at 7:08 was delayed until long past midnight. The road is making a magnificent ght againstthe elements, but it does not seem possible that it can. hold out much longer against such odds. The crevasse at Harlem onthe New Orleans & Soutbern is not yet closed. A force of 100 men has been at work for three weeks, but the cribbing gave way, quicksand interferes or some other ob- struction presents itself and the road has about lost its patience. There was a crawfish hole at © ae but it was temporarily closed. he 133 have sent word that if the railroad sends the material they will close the hole per- manently. As the railroad has stopped run- ning after closing about thirty crevasses, it has ample time in which to contemplate the generosity of the offer. THE RIVER AT. QUINCY, Quixcry, II., July 2.—The river fell one inch to-day, but a heavy rain storm is pre- vailing and another rise is feared. LOYAL TO THE LAST. Death of the Late Gov. Allen’s Faithful Old Slave. BATON RouGE, La., July 2.—On Wednesday last, at his home in the Parish of West Baton Rouge, there died a well-known col- ored man, who had gained the respect of all who knew him by his loyalty and devotion in former days to his master, the lamented Gov. H. W. Allen, and since by his life-long fidelity to the memory of that master. The survivors of the Fourth Louisiana Regiment received with regret the announce- ment that their old Colonel’s slave, Valery Trahan had passed away. Humble slave though he as born, there were few who were more honorable, more loyal and true than he. So well was this fact known and appreciated by Gov. Allen that one of the last acts of his life was to write a letter of advice from Mexico to Valery upon the latter’s assuming the re- sponsibility ofa free man. The last appear- ance of Valery among old confederates was when the remains of Allen were brought here for interment inthe State-house yard when he was chief mourner, walking by the side of the bier carrying his master’s sword. WAS A REAL HEROINE. The Awful Test to Which Her Lover Put a Pretty Girl. From the Detroit Tribune. Two tall, graceful girls strolled slowly along the beach, earnestly conversing. They were conspicuous in the throng and many an ad- miring glance was turned toward them as they sauntered toand fro. The day was per- fect. Aclondless sky was reflected in calm waters below, while scarcely a breath of air was stirring. The girl in the pure white blazer was doing most of tne talking. It is all very well, she was saying, to insist that you would die forthe man you otf but the actual sacrifice is quite another thing..“ The girl with the blue yachting-cap shrugged her shoulders. ‘*You speak, she observed, like one who has made the sacrifice.’’ have the right so to speak. Affecting recollections poured tumultu- ously over the soul of the girl la the white blazer. Her lips trembled and the superb eyes bent upon the sand of the beach glis- tened with the dew of gathering tears. The girl in the blue cap smiled haughtily. Indeed, she sarcasticall retorted, how very interesting! And how does 5 2 to actually die for the man you ve?“ Reproachfully the girl in the white blazer directed her gaze upon the girl with the blue yachting cap. **You shall not make light of it.“ Forgive me.

The girl in the blue yachting cap was ten- derly persuasive. „eit was worse than dying for him, Clara. Witha quick movement the tears were dashed from the superb eyes and the girl with the white biazer faced her companion. It was last Easter, Clara. You remember the dear, bright fellow I was engaged to then, One evening but a short while before he said he did not believe I bore him the deep love I should. I challen him to name a sacrifice I would make for his sake.

ITEMS OF INTEREST FROM THE GREAT CARBONATE CAMP. The Great Leadville Tunnel—The Helena to Resume Work—Strike in the Valley Mine—The Gold Output ot Leadville— Local Mining Notes, LEADVILLE, Colo., July 2,—The building of the mammoth tunnel from a point five miles below Leadville, te run under the city and to the main mines, is one of the most important enterprisés ever undertaken in the camp, Men are already at work, and it is estimated that the work can be completed within twen- ty months ata cost of $750,000. This great tunnel will serve two purposes—it will be large enough to allow an immense flow of water under the main floor, while it will also be used to send cars of mineral to its mouth, which is five miles below the city, and where the ore can be emptied directly into the cars, The main object of the tunnel, however, is to drain the big properties here of water and thus allow the mining of thousands of tons of mineral which can not now be gotten at. The Helen, in which St. Louis investors are interested, is to resume operations very soon. This property is located near the Col. Sellers and A, Y. and Minnie mines, and from indi- cations itis thought that vigorous develop- ment work will bring the management into good ore, It is now stated as a certainty that ship- ments will be started from the Pawnolas Group by next Monday. THE VALLEY Sram. The strike in the Valley is steadily improv- ing. Over seven feet of ore is now to be seen and this averages $60 per tonand gives promise of increasing in value. At the Stars the usual amount of develop- ment work is being carried on, resulting in shipments of 150 tons per day of fair grade iron ore. It was learned to-day that quite an important change in the control of these properties would soon be made. Leadville is fast forging to the front as a gold producer, having such an excellent field as Twin Lakes District to push forward. On the Gordon the ten-stamp mill is working night and day and from $500 to $600 retorts are being cleaned up regularly three times a week, The ore body is now from four to six feet thick and will average an ounce of free gold to every ton. In the mine at present the work is confined to development and large bodies of very rich ore are being blocked out. On the other properties near the Gordon excellent development work is pote on, and from indications it would seem that the same class of ore as found in the Gordon Is also to be disclosed in them. The Post-Dispatcm correspondent to-da saw Mr. J. H. Cragg, who has just returne from Arizona, where he has n looking after the mining interests of ex-Gov, Tabor of Colorado, who is associated with St. Louls and Boston capitalists in mines near Vulture, Ariz. The property owned by this company is one of the largest in that section. Mr. Cragg states that, owing to the scarcity of timber, mining there is rendered very difficult. The main mine owned dy his company is located inthecenter of a large prairie and has practically been gauged down about 200feet. Ore exists in this property in ys abundance, asis proven by the fact that 18,000,000 worth of gold has already been ex- tracted therefrom, and the mine is yet by no means worked out. NEWS FROM BEULAH. The new mining campof Beulah, inthe southern partof Colorado, has lately been exc! ng considerable interest. ulte a num ber of prospectors have gone in there this week and frum what can be learned three ex- cellent gold and silver producing mines have already been discovered, In the Pitkin district the late spring has caused a deal of trouble regarding ship- ments, but since Junela lot of ore has been shipped, the Cleopatra alone shipping eight car loads of ore, the lowest returns of which ave eighty ounces of silver to the on. In the Little Tycoon a new body of ore has just been opened up that discloses over three feetof mineral inthe breast assays, from which run 500 ounces silver r ton, Chicago capitalists have just leased the Islet up, and are now on their way to Pitkin to ook over the properties preparatory to erecting a large mill. The lessees onthe Arizona property, near Central, and owned by n. ompson of Chicago, have resumed work. The last smelter returns ve a net value of $55 a ton. At Cripple Creek a great deal of new work is being carried on, while on the older prop: erties big plants of machinery are ing placed and vigorous mining work is to be car- ried forward. On the Gold Dust, belonging to the Rock Island Co.’s property, arrange- ments have just been completed for the sink- ing of an additional 100 feet. Shipments were resumed from the Anaconda the first of the week. The last run from the Jack-Pot Mining Co.’s ore gave returns of $283 gold per ton. Articles of incorporation were filed this week of the Silver King Mining & Milling Co., witha capital stock of $1,000,000. The Bernice Mining & Milling Co., with headquarters in Denver, also filed articles of incorporation; capital stock, $100,000. The ore struck in the Jumbo at Rico is now 13 inches in width; four cars of second-class ore from this vein gave returns of $12,800. In the same section the veins inthe Hia- watha and Eureka average 12 and 15 inches in width and are in rich and solid ore. In fact all the Rico properties are coming to the front rapidly,and it is destined to become a great camp. ‘ne new Holden smelter in Leadville blew inone furnace 8 and it proved suc- cessful. It is thought that by Monday next they a be ready to begin operations in earnest. MEXICAN MINES.

As to sales, however, there was n decrease of $792,199 in the amount of proper- 2 sold during the first six months of 1891 as _ compared with the corresponding period of 1890. These Ogures plainly indicate the bear- img oof the financial troubles upon the market. The increase in the number of transfers show that the masses were not adversely affected by it, while the falling off in the aggregate amount of money demonstrates very clearly that the wealthy speculators and heavy real State dealers were waiting quietly and holding onto their reserve funds, fearing and watching for a crisis that was happily e@voided by the restoration of full confidence and cheap money late last fall. In the mean time the newly assumed values of St. Louis had been subjected to a severe test by reason of the financial flurry that had been encountered and so successfully with- stood. Prices in St. Louis not only held their Own underthe pressure of hard times but kepton advancing in the face of circum- stances which sadly discouraged the market in other cities.

However the market was growing stronger All the time until Feb. 20, when a gain of $224,420 forthe year had been made. March ended with the largest sales of either of the past six months, $7,501,764 being the purchase price of property sold during that period.

CHEAP EXCURSIONS TO NEW YORK. A Few Reasons Why the Wabash Is Known as “the Banner Route to the East. 1. Running via Tolede, Detroit and along the north shore of Lake Erie, it is the coolest and pleasantest route. 2. Its solid vestibuled trains make the fastest time over the smoothest track. 8. Passengers are not annoyed by smoke, dust or cinders. 4. It is the only line via Niagara Falls, all trains stopping to give passengers ample opportunity to view the great cataract. 5. It is the only line by which passengers can see the magnificent scenery of Niagara and the Hudson River and land at the Grand Central Station, the only railroad depot in New York City. 6. It will sell tickets as cheap as any other line and give as many privileges in the way of stop-overs, extensions of limit, etc., as any competitor. 7. Itstrain equipment is the finestin the country. No line can match its superb sleeping, dining and chair cars. 8. Wabash trains are always on time. The St. Louis ticket offices are at the south- east corner of Broadway and Olive street and Union Depot. Be sure and call before buying tickets. LASHED WITH A RAWHIDE. 1,000 How Miss Montgomery Silenced an Al leged Slanderer. New Tonk, July 2.—Miss Lizzie Montgom- Say. aged 23 years, is the black-eyed daughter of Frank Montgomery, in the employ of Huyler & Son, coal dealers, Hackensack. At 8o’clock Thursday evening she met John Richard Halstead, a bachelor of 35, on Lower Main street, in front of the harness-making shop of Stephen G. Hopper, where he is em- ployed, Miss Montgomery cried: ‘‘I’ll teach you to talk about me,’’ and drawing a raw- hide applied it several times to the back of the astonished bachelor. Mr. Halstead, in- stead of resisting, said: ‘‘Why, Lizzie, what do you mean?“ and as she continued the chastisement he fled. Miss Montgomery hid the whip under the folds of her wrap and proceeded to her home on Morris street, two blocks away. Floyd Graham and others who witnessed the as- sault rushed after Halstead and informed him that the young woman had gone to the office of Justice Cumming for the purpose of procuring a warrant for his arrest for slan- der. Mr. Halstead then hastily retreated to his home on Green street. Miss Montgomery, whois related by marriage to Mrs. Kittle Schmults, the only woman who ever climbed Pike’s Peak in December, said toa represen- tative of the Posr-Disrarch that she had been greatly annoyed by Mr. Halstead's talk. Herfather, whois a widower, em- ployed Annie Welsh of Jersey City, a widow with one child, as housekeeper. Mrs. Welsh, being young and prepossessing, attracted the notice of Mr. Halstead. He visited her frequently at the home ot her em- ployer and, as Miss Montgomery says, spoke disparagingly of the iatter and the family. Having stood this as long as she could, Miss Montgomery borrowed a rawhide from Liveryman Christie and used it as re- lated. Mr. Halstead weighs about 200 pounds, which is about 100 pounds more than the avoirdupols of Miss Montgomery, but the physical strength exerted by the young woman was such as notonly to leave marks of the whip under his clothing, but a red line on his neck indicates that she did not strike with a hand of love. Yesterday Mr. Halstead remained as secluded as his business would permit and when questioned denied that he had in any way annoyed or slandered Miss montgomery. Fourth of July Programme.

HER BOW FIRMLY FIXED IN THE ROCKY COVE. t Whe Officers and Crew Unable to Act Promptiy—Valuable Assistance Ren- dered by the Coast Life-Savers—O’Neil Ryan of St. Louis on Board— A Passen- ger’s Story. QUEENSTOWN, Ireland, July 2.—The Inman Line steamer, City of Chicago, Capt. Rad- fora, from New York, which went ashore last evening onthe barren rocks, about halfa mile inside the old head of Kinsale, remains fast. Three tugs are lying close by her ready to render any assistance in their power, but asyet they have not been called uponto make an attempt to haul her off. When it was found last night that there was no prob- ability of the steamer being gotten afloat, the Dboatswain piped the boats’ crews to quar- ters,and the passengers were told they would have toabandon the ship. There was absolutely no panic on board. The sea was comparatively smooth, and the passengers entered the boats without hesitation. They allreached shore in safety. The ladies on board behaved with the greatest courage throughout. They were the firstto be sent ashore. Sixty of the passengers on landing were given temporary shelter at Lioyds’ signal station. The rockets sent up by the City of Chicago conveyed the intelligence to the people living in the vicinity that the wreck had occurred. In a short time about one hundred peasants gathered upon the high cliff looking down upon the scene of the wreck. The members of the Coast Guard arrived shortly afterward and they procured rope ladders, which they lowered down the face of the cliff. The ladies then ascended in safety. The men were hauled up with ropes by the peasants and the coast guards. No accident hap- pened, except to a6-year-old boy, who fell forty feet from a rock. Most fortunately for him he was seen to slip by the sailors of the City of Chicago standing below and they rushed and caught him before ne reached the ground. When all hands had reached the top of the cliff they were supplied with heavy coats to protect them from dampness. Oarts and jaunting cars were then sent for, and on them a majority of the passengers traveled tothe town of Kinsdale, twelve miles from the wreck. A PASSENGER'S STORY. After the excitement incident to the land- ing of the sengers had subsided Mr. Bayard Stockton ot New Jersey, Prosecutor of Pleas for Mercer County, said: ‘‘We passed Fastnet Light at 4:45 p. m. on Friday. Short- ly afterwards we struck a fog. The fog lifted after standing down tor an hour. I came up m dinner at about 7 o’clock and found the ther a little thick. Halt an hour after it became very thick, I was walking the deck with Prof. Cameron of Princeton and had oceasion to remark that if I was captain of the City of Chicago I would be blowing my whistle, fear - ing I would run over some fishing smack, when my attention was diverted by the rapid revolution of the steering wheel at leasttwoturnsto port. Not two minutes afterwards 1 looked up and saw a cliff di- Yrectly in front of us, apparently twenty yards of. Half a second afterwardsI heard the bell ring to back the engines and imme- diately the screw was reversed and one could feel the change of force. She was at this time going at full speed and I have some Treason to know, for at the din- ner table that evening a gentle man timed the revolutions ofthe screw and reported that she was steaming atthe same rate of speed that she had been going during the voyage, Viz., thirteen to fourteen miles an hour, which was not appreciably slackened until the time ofthe accident. 1 -immediately called to my sister and to one of my boys to throw themselves on deck and I ran for my other boy. Before I could reach him the vessel struck. She struck the cliff—s head on, quite easily and apparently glided slowly fifteen or twenty feetafter she struck upon a shelving. The Captain and two officers were on the Dridge at the time of the collision. I saw the lookout man give warning in a very excitable manner andthe signal to reverse the engine was given with the utmost prom ptitude and the engines wefe reversed immediately with- out the loss of a second. Cape Clear was passed without fog, so we supposed on the course from there to Queenstown we would not be in danger of running into land but our fear was that we might run into fishing smacks which were very numerous. The passengers behaved extremely well. A few ladies fainted but the majority of people were just as cool as one could ever expect them to be upon such an occasion. THE CAPTAIN STUNNED. **Immediately after the accident the Cap- tain left the bridge and appeared to have no plan whatever and to have no thought in his ad except regret that he had lost his ship. here was no officer to tell the passengers whattodo. Imyself heard some ladies ask the Captain what they should do, and they were told todo as they pleased. Word was posses among the passengers that some one ncommand had said that boats would be lowered and the passengers taken off them. I liked back with vy family to see this operation, and ny amusement the davits were ungreased stuck and one boat had, at Mst, to be 1 with an axe before it could be got over ide and then it went down head fore- There was after the accident an ck of generalship in the management rr crew and cargo.

HELP FROM QUFEENTOWN. As soon as the news of the accident reached — 2 tenders were dispatched to the stranded steamer to take off the maiis and passengers’ baggages. Derricks were rigged when the tenders arrived and the pS mena gers’ peggase was hauled up from the h and on them. The mall sacks were also sferred to the tenders. Capt. Redford had in the meantime decided that his ship would have to be lightened and as much ofthe cargoas could be put aboard the tenders was A work was being done the fog lifted tenders were loaded and returned to Queens- town. It has been learned that after the of Chicago left New York every- well until Fastnet ight rocky isle, seventy miles south- west of Oa pe Clear was made. Then a fog set in. This afterward lifted fora time, but quickly settled again. Nothing happened until the vessel struck. After she struck she rebounded slightly, then remained fast with her bow fixed in the rocky cove. The engines were at once reversed at fall speed, but it was found impossible get to her off. Mr. John T. Kavanagh, the purser of the ity of Chicago, has arrived at Queenstown. haninterview witha press representative he says that the steamer has fallen into a most dangerous position, and that there is little hope of saving her. She lles on a rock in such a position that she. in is danger of sliding into deep water. She has eleven fathoms of water under her stern, and this gives an idea ofthe character of the coast she ran pen. In her own length the water deepens sixty-six feet. Advices at noon from the scene ofthe wreck show that the stern of the City of Ohicago, from the haws pipes,thro which the anchor cables pass, down to the forefoot, is completely gone. The agent of the Lloyds thinks that the steamer is pivoted on the rock ust below the funnel, He says there are nine athoms of water from the funnel aft. Quite a sweil is on and the ship is working. Thisis bad, for her moving on the rock will cause her bottom to betornout. The agent thinks thatno attempt will be made to float the steamer until powerful pumping gear is sent toher. Her own pumps would not keep her free, and it is safer to let her remain where she is forthe present. The wind is from the — the weather foggy and the sea moder- ate. Lloyds’ sub-agent here has been aboard the City of Chicago. He found Capt. Reaford in charge. The steamer is firmly fixed on the rocks and her two forward compartments are fullof water. Among the City of Chica passengers were M. D. Galligher, New Tork; O’ Neil Ryan of St. Louis and George Sweeney of Cincinnati, three of the Peace Commis- sioners whom the Irish National League ex- ecutive sent abroad to endeavor to heal the breach between the opposing factions of the Nationalist party. As a result of encountering a dense fog. the steamer City of Chicago, that left New York for Liverpool, ran ashore on Barrell’s Rocks, on the Irish Coast. The ship was disabled to such an extent that the passengers were landed on the rocks and telegrams were sent to Queenstown for tugs to carry the passengers to shore. Among the St. Louis ssengers on board were Mr. L. M. Hull, Miss Mabel Hull, bis daughter; Miss Cynthia Yeatman, daughfer of resident Leatman of the Mer- chants’ National Bank, Christine Orrick, daughter of John Orrick. No passengers were allowed to sxffer, and they will arrive in Liverpool safely. The steamship Majestic,which sailed from New York the same day with thirty-nine St. Iouis passengers aboard, arrived Tuesday without meeting with an accident. BORN IN PRISON AIR. A Penitentiary System That Taints Inno- cent Lives. Jer¥rerson City, July 2.—gt the next national convention of Societies of” - ties and Correction, a delegate from Missouri will read a paper gn a chapter of penitentiary life that has never been discussed before. This is the birth of children in prison air, out of wedlock, their parents being convicts whom the ‘‘trusty’’ system allows to associate. Several instances of this, occurring in Jefferson City, have called the attention of people who are interested in prison reform to the danger of the system when it admits through its privileges a man and a woman to daily meetings. The prison laws of Missouri give the Warden of the nitentiary the right to take all is household servants from the prison, and he does so, making them trusties. His cook,chamberimaid and laundress are all con- victs, and so is the man that attends to the furnace. These servants are changed oc- casionally. They are thrown together th are not watched results follow that might ted. Two infants have opened their eyes on the dull gray walls of the Peni- tentiary in the past few weeks. The two mothers were white and so were the two fathers. All four of the parents have respectable relatives living in the countries from which = were sent to the prison, and possibly the children may be sent there. Warden Morrison says he re- grets the occurrence deeply, but he says that he can not reasonably be held accountable for it. The ‘‘trusty’’ system is responsible. JOHN THOMAS BRADY ARRESTED. Run In for Disturbance in O’Neill’s Saloon. John Thomas Brady occupied a cell at the Four Courts several hours yesterday as a result of his last attempt to paint the city, It appears that he paid a visit late Thursday night to John O’Neill’s saloon oh Sixth, near Pine street and drewa big butcher knife on Billy Kane, the barkeeper, or, at least, such was the report received by the Police Depart- ment next morning. He dared Kane to face him in front of the dar single- handed and alone and sald for that matter he could clean outthe place and lick any man that ever troniged John O’Neill’s dar. As John Thomas bad his full coat of war- paint on and his tomahawk ready, nobody disputed his word or showed any disposition to interfere with him in any way whatever. He left without taking any scalp or spilling any blood, and that was the last seen of him there that night. although it is said that he continued on the war-path the bal- ance 0 the nignt huntin for O'Neill in all the down town, all night saloons. Friday Billy Kane made formal complaint to Chief Harrigan of Brady’s visit to his place the night before and the Chief issued an order for the young man’s arrest. Several detectives were on the lookout for him, but he was not located and arrested un- til yesterday afternoon. A charge of dis- turbing the peace was booked against him, and after he had sobered ae the evening he was released on collateral bond, putting up $50 for his appearance in the First District Police Court next Tuesday morning. Hair Pulling Match. Mrs. Delia Kelley of 1717 South Bleventh street aud Mrs. Frances Witowak of 1719 South Eleventh street, concluded a fight yes- begun by their children and the u neigubors re that it was a re r oid time hair 1 match. Each of the women visited the Four urts inthe afternoon and — 4 — charges 1 the other. Both ve been summ oned to appear in the First District Police Court next Tuesday on the charge of disturbing the peace. A Southern Politician’s Death. Mowtcomery, Ala., July 2.—Col. James T.

THE CHIEF JUSTICE’S FRIENDS WORK- ING TO FIX A COMBINATION. The Meaning of the Fight on Judge Thomas in the Southeast—The Candi- dates and Their Backers—Apportion- ment of Delegate to the Cities and Counties—Exciting Times Assured. Interest in the Democratic Judicial Con- vention which meets in St. Louis next Wednesday has reached an exceedingly high stage and State politicians generally say it will be one of the most exciting gatherings of its kind ever witnessed in Missouri. Unlike judicial conventions held in past years this one will nominate three candid- ates. Two of the vacancies are due to the constitutional amendment adopted two years ago increasing the num- ber of judges from five to seven to facilitate the prompt aisposition ofappealed cases. Gov. Francis it will be remembered then appointed Judges John L.Thomas of De Soto and J. B. MacFarlane of Mexico to fill the newly created judgeships to serve until the succeeding general election. Their terms will shortly expire and both are seeking re-election. Chief Justice T. A. Sherwood 's term will expire shortly, and he, too, wants re-election, ‘‘wants it very badly,’’ and will get it it the railroad attor- neys and lobbyists have their say: or, in other words, if they can control a majority of the delegates. Besides the three incumbents there are three other judges who want to goon the Supreme bench and they are strongly backed by the delegates in their respective sections. They are Judges George A. Madill of st. Louis; Willard P. Hall, St. Joseph, and Gavan D. Burgess of Linneus. They all have an array of supporters who will crowd Music Hall next Wednesday and make things hum about the hotel lobbies for their fa vor- ites. And in this gathering the active ralil- road attorney and his pass-book will be a big factor, as he generally is on such occa- sions. THE APPORTIONMENT. There will be 526 delegates in the conven- tion distributed among the cities and coun- ties as follows: Dele-| gates. Counties. ’ | Nodaway— First District. ... ... second District. .

On the eve of conventions, and particularly those which attract as much attention as the coming one, reports of all kinds can be heard. There were several in circulation last even- ing, and one ofthe most reliable of the lot indicated that the Sherwood people are badly scared. Up to a few days ago they were claiming everything, and the impres- sion got out that the railroad lawyers would not only get their choice, but dictate the other twoas well. With such a power in their hands they would make short work of Judge Thomas, who is not pores with the legal departments of the rall- roads. But yesterday and last night matters presented a different aspect. The story got out that delegates counted on for Sherwood would not support him on ac.- count of the anti-raliroad sentiment which has been developing of late. It is not so much of an anti road 8 Bo hobs Gobo DD ene Suprem the plans of the men is to make a combination with some one of the three candidates north of the Missouri River for mutual protection. This, on the theory all three will be voted on at one time. To offset this the Thomas and Hall men will ve probably make a stand to have one judge nominated at a time. Still this would not prevent com- Dinations. The Sherwood torces will make any combination they can to insure his nom- ination, and those candidates who will suffer by such a deal of course do their best to head it off. DAGGERS FOR JUDGE THOMAS. Another re afloat last night was that the 8 men, through ex-Congressman Clardy, Jasper Burke and other southeastern lea ‘ en into Thomas’ forces in that section of the State and had taken St. Francois County with its four votes in addi- tion to ral others. It was St. Francois County t presented Judge Smith’s name to the nnibal Convention for the nomination w — Bond captured, and the south- supporters of the former made some threats when the lohg stru Diamed the itr ve knives up their eeves for Thomas ? how Judge Madill will fare is a matter 2 Co., ap A NEGRO’S SEAT. Theatrical Managers Have a Right to. Designate It. JEFFERSON Crrr, Mo., July 2.—A question of general interest was decided by the court to- dayin an opinion handed down by Judge Black. The casein brief is this: A negro pur- chased two tickets of admission toa per- formance in oneof the theaters in Kansas City and attended in company with a dusky companion, The Tick ets called for orchestra chairs, but the ushers refused to seat the couple and offered to con- duct them to balcony seats and refund the difference in price of seats, or to take up the tickets and refund the money entirely. The negro declined to do either and insisted on being seated wherethe tickets entitied him, but the ushers refused and finally ejected him, Judge Black holds that the proprietor of . the house had the right to designate where the ncgro should sit, and that an ‘‘individual invasion of individual rights’’ is not a ylolation of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that this State has no lawwhich permits the abridgment of the privileges of any citizen of the United States, He says: ‘*The colored man has and is entitled to have all the rights of a cit- izen, butit cannot be said that equality of rights means identitg in all re- spects.’’ 80 long as the man- ager did not attempt ta exclude the colored man from his theater he violated no law, and had aright to assign him toany one part of the house set apart for negroes according to the prevailing custom and usage, and tuch custom has the force and effect of law until some competent legislative power shall establish some other and difier- ent rule,’’ and that the manager’s ‘‘rule was no more than a reasonable regulation. COLUMBIA'S BONDS. An opinion was handed down to-day that might have materially affected Columbia’s chances for retaining the University when the fight was up during the extra session of the Legislature. The people of Columbia were charged by their opponents in the fight that the city, having no provision for fight ing a fire. ought not to dave such valuable public bulldings as the State University located in their midst, and that the institution should de lo cated elsewhere. Columbia replied that she had voted bonds for the erection of water- works, but was delayed in the saleof the bonds by an injunction suit on the part of some kickers, but that * was then in the Supreme Court an no earthiy doubt of that by the time university buildings were erected they would have strong streams of water pouringon it from all sides from their fine wager-works system. Well, Columbia is in Mick, for on the strength of these arguments largely, she got the University relocated there. o-day the Court says Oolumbia’s bonds were iliegally issued and that she cannot have any waterworks so far as any action in the past is concerned. Columbia will have to redeem her pledges by noting new bonds to erect the promised works. The fine, new University bulidings will be at the mercy of the fiery element for possibly some time to come, Other Decisions.

NEW ORLEANS, La., July 2.—The Picayune’s Havana special says: The continued heavy rains have brought our sugar-making season to a close, with a total crop of about 900,000 tons, 100,000 tons sugar less than was antici- pated at New Years, with large fields of standing cane left over for another season. This will enable planters to commence the next crop in the latter part of November or the ist of December proximo. Sufferers by the late floods are busily Occupied repairing damages, railroad tracks, bridges, houses and much garden truck lands being under water. They have had to be replanted and many important vegeta bles such as potatoes, onions and plantains have become much dearer in market. This, however, will soon overcome @s Cuban lands are ever pro- ducing and planting means cropping contin- uously, without having to stop for a change of season, two crops of corp being raised an- nually. The delicious mafigo, the peach of Cuba, is now in the height of its season and very abundant being brought to great per- fection by the recent rain. «Shipment of pine apples continues and has reached the enor- mous fuansty Of 200,000 barrels since April 1 from th rt alone, but the resuit has been disastrous toshippers, the produc- tion being so much in excess of consumption even with the great facilities for distributing it to all parts of the United States and Can- ada from New York, Which port such large uantities of the excellent [fruit are sent rom Cuba.

HE FILES ONE SUIT FOR LIBEL AND ANOTHER FOR ASSAULT. Big Attachment Suits Against the De La Vergne Refrigerating Co. — Judge Klein’s Decisions-John G. Witte’s Will Admitted to Probate—News From the Circuit Courts. Col. John I. Martin of the law firm of Mar- tin & Bass, representing Dr. W. Van Ger- hart, fled two suits yesterday afternoon against Geörge W. Nie‘tringhaus for dam- ages, growing out of the assault made on Dr. Van Gerhart on Tuesday night last when Dr. Van Gerhart called at the Niedringhaus mansion to elope, it is claimed, with Mr. Niedringhaus’ sister, Miss Lint Niedring- haus. One of the suits is against George W. Nied- ringhaus alone, and is for $15,000 damages for alleged slander in consequence of state ments made by Mr. Niedringhaus about Dr. Van Gerhert. The other suit is against George W. Niedringhaus and Courtney West, his broth- in-law, and is for $5,000 damages for assault. The petition sets forth that the assault was committed on or abeut June 29, 1892. * The suit against George W. Niedringhaus for alleged slander contains three counts and Dr. Van Gerhart asks for $5,000 damages on each count. In the first count it is eged that Mr. Niedringhaus said: ‘‘She went with him because she was afraid that if she re- fused him he might kill her, and she claims to us that she has gone with him at times be- cause he threatened her and she fears that he will killher if she refuses to have alleged statement by ghaus: Dr. Gerhart is well known as a professional masher.’’ The third count is or an alleged repetition by Mr. Niedringhaus of the lan- guage attributed to him in the second count. Big Attachment Suits. Late yesterday afternoon Attorney Leo Rassieur, of the firm of Rassieur & Schnur- macher, filed seven attachment suits representing as many chents, of whom himself was one, against the De La Vergne Refrigerating Machine Co. and John C. De La Vergne,. for amounts ag- gregating $75,0000n alleged breaches of con- tract. The plaintiffs in the cases are first Mr. Leo Rassieur, himself, who sues for $20, - 000; Edward Mallinckrodt, who sues for $22, - rigerating Ma- com „ and has a branch in Sst. Louis Eighth and Park avenue. Joh la Vergne is 14 0 e+) * The petitions in : allegations, excepting the names of the laintiffs and the amounts sued for. It is set orth that the plaintiffs were stockholders of the Consolidated Ice Machine Co, of Chicago which was enga in the manufacture an sale of refrigerating and ice-mak- ing machines, and it 18 alleged that the company assigned on or about October, 1890. The stock of the company, it is stated, consisted of 2,000 shares, of the value of $100a share. The De La Vergne com- pany, it is stated, was engaged in the same usiness, and it is alleged entered into a con- tracton June 16, 1891, or thereabouts, with the stockholders of the Consolidated Co. for the purchase of the Consoli- chine C dated Co. stock.

A Great Day forthe Plungers at the East Side—Three Favorites to the Fore-— Dock Wick Surprises the Talent by De- feating Buckhound—Winning Owners at the Fair Grounds. Three favorites, ared hot second choice and a five-to-one shot carried off the purses at the East Side course yesterday afternoon. The track was packed firmly and some ex- cellent sport resulted. A good Saturday crowd, numbering in the neighborhood of 3,000, was present and kept the bookies busy handling the result ot their week’s work. The foreign book was a strong attraction and the Sheeps- head Bay and Washington Park races car- ried almost as much money as the local events. The $500 handicap brought out a field of excellent flyers, among them Servitor, who downed the mighty Alaho, Pennyroyal, Warn C., La- mothe, and The Deacon. Servitor was made a hot favorite from the start. He was played consistently all along the line and asa result closed at the prohibitive odds of 6 to 5. Pen- nyroyal was next in demand at 5 to 2. The Deacon at 4 to 1, Newcastle at 6 and Lomathe at 8 to 1 came next, in the order named. The rest of the fleld could be had at from 10 to 20 to 1. After a number of false breakaways the flag flashed ona pretty start. Lomathe was first toshow to the front, followed by Harry Weaver and Texas Girl. As the field passed the stand Lomathe and Harry Weaver both died out completely, permitting Pennyroyal and Texas Girl to g0 to the fore. In this order the procession moved along to the quarter post, where Charlie Weber, who had the mount on Texas Girl, began urging her forward, and she re- sponded in magnificent style. She shot past Pennyroyal, leaving him to strug- gie for third place with Servitor who had come out of the bunch and was be- ginningto get in therace. The trio passed the three-quarter post in the same order un- der desperate urging from whip and spur. As the stretch was entered the hot pace began to tell on Texas Girl. Servitor was gaining ground at every bound, and passing to the fore finished an easy winner by two lengths. Texas Girl had a hard struggle to win second place from Pennyroyal by half a length. The usual five-eighths of a mile scramble for non-winners started the afternoon’s sport and out ofa field of eight, Ithica was made the first choice at7to5. Cœsar at 8 to 5 was a red hot second choice, and Miss Kitty at 6 to 1 Was liked by a few. The fleld got off pretty well lined up, but they commenced to scatter as they passed the stand. Serenader showed to the fore as they moved into the backstretch, but he quit inthe most cowardly manner. Cesar and Ithica moved to the front as the feld turned into the stretch, but Cesar developed more staying powers than the first choice in the final struggle, and coming to the fore won handily by several lengths. Ithica ex- perienced no trouble in defeating Jack White for the place. Enoch, the 22-year-old which McCafferty sold to J. B. a short time ago for $1,000, was made the first choice for the second event, a three- quarter mile selling affair. Templemore at 8to3 was extensively played, as was Sea King at 2 tol, and Little Phil at (to 1. Enoch J. J.

BUTLER’S STATEMENT DENIED, The Mother of Miss Rose an Interview. The statement made to the Post-DIsPaTcH by Principal William D. Butler of Blow Schocl caused considerable comment in Carondelet, where Mr. Batler and Miss Rose Cooper and her mother, Mrs. K. F. Cooper, are well known, The Coopers were perhaps the most sur- prised of an Mrs. h. F. Cooper said last evening: do not wish to enter into — controversy with Mr. Butler, but I must this, that Mr. Butler's statement is talon from beginning to end and coarse and brutal. Neither my daughter nor myself brought any charges against Mr. Butler, and the manner in which the affair leaked out was purely ac- cidental. It is a falsehood when Mr. Butler says that my daughter and myself upbraided him on the street for not recommending her. She had a perfect right to ask why she was not recommended but beyond that a more was said. As far as Lam concerned have not spoken to Mr. Butler for a year or Cooper Gives on the Exposition Course resulted as follows: First race, six I first; Keystone, second; Hattie B, third.

Lynch never quite recovered his equanimity and made frequent errors of judgment during the remainder of the game. The Browns never got any further than second base auring the first eight innings. In the ninth Breitenstein poked the ball into the ground in front of home plate and beat ittofirst. He took second ona passed ball, third on a wild i piteh and scored on Werden’s slashing single into left. Glasscock and Brodie struck out and Caruthers ended all hope by a Iiner into Brouthers' hands. The Brooklyn batters seemed to reach first inning, and only the very sharpest of Iding kept them from scoring in the early stages of the game. Ward was given his base on balis at the beginning, and took second on Joyce’s sacrifice. Corcoran lined out to center, and Brodie returned the ball like a shot to Gleason, who threwto Pinkney and caught Ward napping at third. Brouthers an Griffin hit safely in the second innings, but Big Dan“ took too much territory and fell a victim to one of Dick Buckley's lightning throws. Inthe fourth inning after Corcoran had ne out Burns and Brouthers hit safe and given his base on the bases full Gleason struck out O’Brien and Daly, the next bat ter, had two strikes and three balls. The crowd had heart disease during a@ spell of foul batting, but the agony was ended by an easy Cleveland. + 3 beodrolcolonl wl co’ Cleveland | oof col mal ~a] : lmiml col: elles ele Louisville New York Philadelphia .

Cochran, General Missouri Pacific Railway, St. Louis, Mo. My Dear Str—I address you this open letter the General Solicitor of the Missouri Pactfic Oo. just prior to the meeting of the udicial Convention in st, Louis on the 7th of uly, for the rpose of reaching the legal department of that road. charge of the road), an to reach the masses of the evil which is full of danger to good gov person I am after, but umph.’’ a D pinion of your exalted character, trained by an elevated ancestry, and sup- rted by eminent associates, makes me slow o believe that you personally approbate the conduct of those pass peddlers, or are fully cognizant ofthe plans pursued, to in not only a temporary advantage for the road, but also to elevate themselves to high places which they naturally degrade and disgrace by deception, treachery and the betrayal of an honest trust. Ignorance in such instances isnot a crime upon your part, but a virtue which is commendable. An eagle has no conception of the natureandacts ofa vul- ture. But, sir, with this and other warn- ings, if you still retain those men in your employment to perform such work in the future as they have done in the st then public attention will be irected to you by a plazing light and you will have no just cause to complain if your warmest admirers stand aghast at your silence and are provoked and disgusted at your acquiesence. Independence in your manhood will be a brighter jewel in your future character than subservience tothe eed of wealth or demands of corporate which will treat you, sooner later, as i has others who loyal to the core in legal duties, but unwilling to stoop from their eminent rofession to the base work of the lobbyist or he dirty jobs of a pimp. To all such, my friends, the paths of glory lead but tothe grave. ‘the moment you cease to be a slave the sleepless ax awaits your head. Past fidelity is no guarantee of continued favors. I have seen one or more ot your predecessors retired in their old age tothe shades of poverty for noother reason known tothe public than that of fidelity to their legal duties. Your fate may be theirs, «provided you follow in their footsteps, which willand would commend you tothe admira- tion of society. Ihave seen a distinguished ex-Member of Congress, ex-Member of the Cabinet,ex-Judge of the United States Circuit Court in this district removed from a simiiar tlon to yours, because he would per- orm work for his employer beneath his pro- fession and standing. He lost his place, but retained his honor. It is somewhat strange, but true, that in every State there is some leading road that undertakes to manipulate and manage the litical convention by its tools and hirelings n order to work a wrong upon the on to secure in legislation undue advantages in courts, decisions to the detriment of the peo- ple, and to * upon the bench Judges who are belleved to wear the collar and brand of the rallroad,as Gurth and Wambain ‘‘ivan- hoe did the badge of servitude to Cedric, born thralls of Cedric of Ratherwood,’’ as the great novelist denominated them. That this is the case in Missour! many, very many believe. The mere suspicion of it is hurtful alike to every member of the court, the brave and independent one as well as the assive, and this is deeply regretted by every aw -abiding citizen who desires the judiciary to stand pure, unblemished and without even the jaintest coloring of leaning to one liti- — or the other. Ihere are Judges of the upreme Court bench of Missouri who honor the ermine, delight their friends by their eminent standing, learning and 8 Opinions area golden rule of life, in whose resence we can say in the wordsof Judge lack in the Mulligan case before the su- preme Court of the United States, Here we are in a — a atmosphere where no passion can disturb the judgment, no partiality un- balance the scale or shake that even ance in which the scales of reason are held. Before such men we, as American citizens, can bow our heads as they stand as unbend- Ing as the gnarled and ‘‘unwedgeable oak“ over the lives, liberties and fortunes of our ple, and can teach our children to rise in heir presence and call them blessed. Noth- ing should be done by corporations or citi- gens to cast even a suspicion on such a court nor any member of it. A judge charged, however faintly, with favoritism, is as deeply blighted and mildewed as is a woman when suspicioned by a vigilant society with having lapsed from the purity of her sex. ‘ou, sir, are an ucated gentleman, learned in the law, severely orthodox in your individual morals, and would not de- scend from the high pedestal — — tor all the weanh of money. Therefore, Iam slow in believing that you will so far lose that high indjvduality of character in your employment by a soulless and mercenary corporation, as to sanction the further use of — peddlers to desecrate the coming udicial Convention by their 1 pres; ence and debauching acts, whose hate is harmless, but whose love blights like a pesti- lence.’’ I call u you as the legal repre- sentative of the Missouri Pacific Bailway Co. to so honor that grave occasion, that sacre convention, in whose presence no foul — should go to do their dirty work, to reca these instrumentalities used in the past conventions, elevate the methods of your department to its legitimate business, and leave the representatives of the people to their important work with an ale to the good of every inhabitant of Mis- Four ae po knowledge right action in such ror truer in _ ethics ph ot the — iy isshort.’’ I the com waken a deeper a , nd else * an exten ions Tour work is evil; severely human r cupidity a higher ir fear an ind 6, sv THE RAILROADS PAY THE FREIGHT. 3% The Political Managers Kenna and Sherwood of the Frisco, Clardy of the Iron Mountain, Priest and Phelps of the Missouri Pacific | 4 Seatucky and John Carroll of the Burlington, Take Charge of the Delegates Coming to St. Louis to Nominate Supreme Court Judges. hy Upp? 22 Dy / / haf “ML 4 "ee eeueteoaee eewee @4#e © — it ‘ . — SONSIENED 1, 4, Lan CONVENTION A 7 1 >> — . — ——— 2 = a = ~ SS * “> * ~ — N ~ — — G * * ~ N 8 . * 8 " N 5 O => N ~ n 8 ~~ * . \ — ~ ~. 83 . ~~ =~, — ~ — = ~ July e s902 | 1A | 2 Why Hx: . inh — ＋ * . Qu vance. A great corporation like the Missouri Pacific Rallway Co., with such a noble type of manhood at its head as Mr. Clark—the pride of the State, as it was its first-born— should elevate the name and honor of the State, as by that its are increased, and not seek low ends industrious““ to decloud its judiciary and degrade its legislation. Junius says: In public affairs cunning, let it be ever so well wrought, will not conduct a maa hon- orably. through life. An honest man, like the true religion, appeals to the understanding or modestly confides in the internal evidence of his conscience. The imposter employs force instead of argument, imposes silence where he cannot convince and propagates his character by the sword. Wedo not expect you to use the sword, but the past conduct of your minions in State conventions and in the legislative hall has done more to bring reproach upon the fair name of Missouri than if you had demanded obetsance from the representatives of the people by some great overween- ing power, for then you would soon have been taught that he who takes the sword must die by the sword, that he who seeks to rule without authority must event- ually receive the condemnation and punish- ment at the hands of an indignant people. Those railroads in Missouri that have not vexed Legislatures and conventions by the impertinent presence of the tool. Essaying by his devilish arts To reach the organs of his fancy, Stand highest with the State and county authorities, with the juries ofthe land, and ever receive the just rewards of theirown honorable conduct from such authority. Comparisons are said to be odiuos, but I will resume to direct your attention to the con- uct of the Chicago & Alton Railroad in Mis- sourias worthy ofthe severest imitation in matters of this kind. It abstains from the employment and use of all such hirelings as bring dishonor and sharp criticism on the road you represent. That road attends to its own legitimate business, seeking not to interfere with conventions or the gisla- ture of the State, leaving them unmolested to attend to their own legitimate duties. It would more creditable to both of the great political parties of this State if this could be said of all railroads in its limits. I am, as you are aware, a lawyer by pro- fession, proud alike of the 1 calling and the thousands of distin ed men upbold- ing its honor and dignity, some of whom you have as your able assistants, sucn as Priest, Clardy, Shirk, Robinson, ey and Her- bert, who stand foremost as gentlemen and lawyers, yet — have others employed, who, like leashed hounds ‘‘crovched for employ- ment,’’ are ever ready to pursue the timid deer or the with the same indifferent nose, ‘‘lewd fellows of the baser sort, who are doing much to lower your own honorable standing and to increase the ani- mosity of the ple against the road you represent. A little leaven leaveneth much for evil as well as good. Itis said your cor- poration favors a certain distinguished gen- tleman as his own successor on the supreme bench for reasons well known to it and strongly suspicioned by others, a Zeal, as was once said by t man, ‘‘born of benefits receli and fostered by the pope of favors yet to come, and that zeal exist ng upon the side of corporations has arous a stubborn op ition in the minds of the — against this candidate. This should teach you that the people are not unobservant of the favoritism of the roads and of the activity of their agents through- out the State in behalf of this candidate. No one questions the great learning of this st and his oo capabilities for perform- his judicial functions, and it is discredit- able alike to him and the State that the cor- porations should so plainly indicate that reference for him as to bring a stain upon is name anda d upon his ju- dicial ermine.

I iscrim * ice at displayed greater activity than in proposing, nominating and electing the various courts from that ofthe county to that of the su- preme bench. It may said this is done in self-defense, which is erroneous, asit im- pees wrong to the State and prejudice in the reasts of the judges. No State wants to op- press its roads, no court to violate a princi- ple of right for or against anyone. Justice is the rule of every State, andthe safety of the citizens is the motto on its escutcheon. This is especially so in Missouri. When a citizen ora road impeaches those emblems it brings a reproach on the sovereign power that gives protection to the one and exist- ence totheother. No ration like the Missouri Pacific can act on that low rule of Jonas Chuzzlewit: they will do ye our times. It is bribery and corruption under an ignodie name. No reputable road should have such creatures as professionally en- age in it. A State official and an onorable legislator should cry Un- clean, unclean!’’ whenever ap- proached by such suspicious characters. The railroads of Missouri are managed by officers of unquestioned honor, ability and fitness sans peur, sans reproche, who have placed our roadsin the front rank of mechanical and financial success, who in person could obtain from the departments of the State and from the legislature such legislation as would be productive of good alike to the roads and State, incurring no criticism by their temporary presence at the capitol. In fact, their presence would be an honor to the State. Such men as Clark, Hayes, Nettleton, Merrill and brown are an honor to any State. If those gentlemen can- not attend the capitol from pressure of busi- ness then their representative attorneys, ourself, Priest, Blodgett, Lehman, Brown. throp, Adams, the Hagermans and Spencer, would at once command the re- spect of those in authority and place all the roads on the highest plane of honor. The presence of pass peddlers and railroad lobby- ists at Jefferson City and conventions is a menace to the peace ofthe roads,a heavy cost to their exchequers and an invi- tation to the speculative legislator to oppres- Sive legislation. Ihave known in my short experience more than one member of the House and Senate bought off by the roads from the support of intemperate bills, by the romise of place, if not the session of arge sums of money. The natural interest of the citizen in g legislation and good ju- dicial nominations is becoming in the rail- roads of the State and all beyond that will provoke opposition on the part of the peo- pie. With the partiality of a friend and the broadest liberality towara all rsons, corporate or individual, may I say that the public with ‘‘an eye that scorcheth all it giares upon’’ is watching the conduct of the roads in the w= judicial convention with far more than ordinary interest and, if a word tothe wise is sufficient, I admonish them to ‘‘touch not, taste not, handle not’’ the delegates in behalf of any favorite, leav- ing them uninfluenced, unbiased, unap- proached, to select such candidates as w declare the law before man and God with the learning of a Leonard and the honesty of a Scott.

It Was Indorsed by Two Wabash Rail- road Attorneys. ~ WELLS H. BLODGETT TELLS HOW HE BECAME AN INDORSER. The Supreme Judge Was Pinched for Funds and the Assistance of Blodgett and Burnett Was Asked to Negotiate a Loan From a St. Louis Bank—The Stury Out. *astory now being quite widely told ana commented upon, especially in legal circles, connects the name of T. A. Sherwood of the State Supreme Court of Missouri with those of two attorneys of the Wabash Rallroad Co. ina financial transaction, of which Judge Sherwood wasthe beneficiary. The story in question relates to the negotiation of a note allegedto have been madeby Judge Sher- wood, which, before it could be entirely ac- ceptable tothe bank from which the money was to be borrowed, had to be further strengthened by indorsers for Judge Sher- wood. The two Wabash corporation lawyers in the story figure as these indorsers, and as one of them, when seen yesterday afternoon regarding the transaction, acknowledged that he hadindorsed for Judge Sherwood, although his memory was strangely indis- tinct asto the details of the money trans- action, whereby a Judge of the Supreme Court obtained a loan from a bank on the indorsement of a railroad corporation law. yer, the details of the story as told by others will be found interesting. The story is known to many of the more prominent attorneys of St. Louis, among them being Col. James O. Broadhead, Judge Bennett Pike, Mr. Amos R. Taylor and others, and it was from Mr. Taylor that the Post- DISPATCH obtained the points of the story as ld. 22 STORY OF THE NOTE. It is stated that the note in question was for the amount of $5,500, It was drawn by Judge Sherwood, and as finally presented at the bank for discount, it had two indorsers. The indorsers, it is stated, were Mr. Wells H. Blodgett, general solicitor of the Wabash Railroad, and Mr. Geo. B. Burnett, attorney of the same corporation. Upon these three names, T. A. Sherwood, Wells H. Biodgett and George B. Burnett, the note was promptly negotiated, it is stated, the Missouri Supreme Court Judge receiving the money there- for, with the two Wabash corporation law- yersas his security, guaranteeing the bank against loss through this loan to an occupant of the Missouri Supreme bench. The name of the bank at which the note was negotiated was not given in the story. The facts of this financial transaction seem to be very generally known to st. Louis lawyers, but Mr. Taylor, who tells of his knowledge of the case, states that he could scarcely credit the story, OWing to its unfor- tunate bearing upon Judge Sherwoodas a member of the Supreme bench of Missouri. He states that on Saturday, Juneli,in the office of Editor Black of the Clayton Argus he eral attorney for the Missouri Pacific railroad, in regard to the matter, charging that Judge Sherwood had thus placed himseif under obligations to the attorneys of a cor- poration whose most important cases Came before the Supreme Court for decision. Mr. Taylor states that Attorney Priest acknow- ledged that he knew of such a note but urged in defense of Judge Sherwood that ‘‘at the time the two Wabash attorneys, Blodgett and Burnett, indorsed Judge Sherwood’s note, the Wabash Railroad had no cases bo- fore the Supreme Court! MR. BLODGETT INTERVIEWED. Upon learning the details of the story given above, a Posr-Disraron reporter called on Blodgett in the Wabash was made ofit. Mr. Blodgett wanted to know howthe PostT-DIsPatcu obtained the story, but this information was not supplied. The statement is made, Mr. Blodgett, that you indorsed a note of Judge Sherwood’s for $5,500. Is that the fact?“ The Wabash attorney was very thoughtful forawhile. Then came his first statement. ‘*‘I really cannot say, he said. ‘‘I could not state positively whether I have or have not indorsed a note of Judge Sherwood’s. I have a recollection of a transaction of that nature, but to the best of my knowledge now it was some years ago. My knowledge of the transaction is that Judge Sherwood wanted to borrow some money from. a. bank and had as collateral security a life insurance policy. The security, it was stated to me, was satisfactory to the bank, but the rules of the institution required that all notes nego- tiated with it must have indorsers. I under- stood that this was the case with Judge Sher- wood’s note, and that there was no risk in indorsing it owing to the sufficiency of the coilateral that would accompany it. AsIre- member, the note was brougnt to me for in- dorsement with that statement.“ „And you don’t remember, Mr. Blodgett, whether or not you indorsed it?’’ Oh, when I come to think the matter over, I suppose I must have indorsed it.“ Was it a note for 38, 500?“ It might have been. I do not remempbDer. It may have been for $5,000, or $3,000, or some - thing like that. I can’t state positively. „When this note was brought to you for indorsement, with the statement that it was amply secured by a life insurance policy as collateral, was that collateral accompanying the note? No, tt was not. Ionly saw the note. Did you ever see the bank as to the col- lateral security which made it safe for you to indorse for Judge Sherwood?’’ No, I never did.“ What bank was it that advanced the money on that note?’’ **I really do not know. I don’t remember that Iever heard the name of the bank. Was the note ever renewed?’’ Not that Iam aware of. Did Judge Sherwood pay it when it fell due? **I do not know. Has the note been paid, or is it still held by the bank?“ * could not say. The note was a short time one, and I have never heard of it since I indorsed it, if I did indorse it. What character of note was it; that is, at how long a time was it drawn?’’ I could not say, further than that it is my impression that it was not to run long. My recollection of the transaction is very dim, and when you first spoke to me aboutit I could not recollect it at all. „Was Mr. George B. Burnett also an in- dorser with you?’’ do not know. But f he was, it was just as I was, as a matter almost of form, in which there was no risk. Neither Mr. Bur- nett nor myself could afford to lose that much money.’’ ASKED BY SHERWOOD’S FRIEND. „Was that the only transaction of such a nature you have ever had with Judge Sher- wood? The only time you ever indorsed a note of his?’’ Les, it was. And I want to say right here that Judge Sherwood himself never asked me to indorse that note, and never spoke to me about it afterwards.’’ **How was the request made of you, and — oe the’ note come to you for indorse- A friend of Judge Sherwood spoke to me about it, and the same friend brought the note to me for indorsement. Who was the friend?’’ That, also, I do not recollect. I think it must have been six or eight years ago that this 1— occurred, but I am not certain a t ; And Judge Sherwood himself never has spoken to you about the note, either before or — 2 you indorsed it, or at any time what- ever?’ No, I donot think he has ever mentioned the subject to me at ali. Can state whether or not this MR. ALLEN SAYS HE DIDN’T WAVER. The Clay County Delegate to Chicago Ex- plains His Positton. The following is sent tothis office in reply to a special telegram in the PostT- DISPATCH from Chicago during the Democratic convention: On my arrival home from Chicago, some days ago, my attention was called to a telegram from that city, in the issue of your paper of the 23d inst., in which there are many erroneous statements in referonce to myself. My first thought was to pay no attention to the statements, but, inasmuch as many other friends afterward called my attention to the telegram, justice to myself requires that I correct the errors in it. — —u— There were strictly speaking, few, f any waverers among the delegates of the Democracy of Missouri to the National Democratic Convention at Chicago. The large majority of the delegates (of which ma- ority I had the honor to be a member) were, and had been, when appointed by the Democracy of our State at the Sedalia Convention, on the llth ult., thoroughly Cleveland men; and we so firmly con- tinued to be until our efforts, united with the action of Cleveland delegates throughout the Union, cal- minated in the triumphant nomination of the great tariffreformer. That majority was also, every man of it, in favor of obeying, and we did obey, in letter and in spirit, the instructions given the delegates by the Democratic State Convention at Sedalia. In reference to the minority of the Missouri delegates, I will only say that they impressed myself and others of the ma- jority with the idea that they (the minority) wished to be relieved from the unit rule in voting, made obligatory on the delegates by our instructions. As to why they wished to be relieved it is not necessary that 1 express an opinion. The telegram goes on to say that Senator Pier- sol’s fiery denunciation of the anti-Cleveland men on the delegation as cowardsand sneaks sent all those fearfui delegates scurrying te Cleveland cover; and then cites me as an illustration. 80 far as Iam concerned, that paragraph is utterly untrue, in every sense, and every member of the Missouri delegation will so testify, if asked. I will add, moreover, that I never, at any time or place, heard any denunciation by Senator Piersol, nor do I know that he uttered any, save only as the information comes to me through the medium of that telegram, I went to the National Odnvenionas a Cleveland man, and so remained. It is wholly untrue, as stated in that telegram, that I **went to see Gov. Flower, and the New York ene- my of Cleveland took from him (me) the invitation to the assault upon the Missourians which he alfter- wards made. Gov. Flower was never officially in- vited by the Missouri delegation to address them. He was never so invited by myself. either individ- ually or in connection with any other person or per- sons. If he was invited by any member of the Mis- souri delegation, Ido not kaow who the member was. He was not, in my opinion, one of the major- ity. Gov. Flower’s remarks to those delegates who heard him (a portion of the delegates only were present) could not be eharacterized as an assault. They were antagonisticto Mr. Cleveiand’s nomi na- tion, but they were courteous. : In reference to the Missouri delegates, the tele- ram has this tosay: ‘‘So long as they live the Mis- sourians will not forgive themseives going into the convention bound hand and foot against the better judgment and wish of nearly half of the delega- tion. That remark, I feel sure, does not apply toa majority of the delegates. It does not apply to me. I was a member of the Sedalia Convention , and noted for the platform adopted by it, inclading the resolution in favor of Cleveland, and instructing the delegation to vote as sa unit. I approve the platform and resolu: ion now. Missouri Democracy did a thing than when they adopted thas resolution.

July 2.— The separate coach bill, which was passed by the Legisla - ture a short time ago, has agitated the cole ored population of the State toa great ex- tent, and the blacks are determined thatthe law shall never jgo into effect. They object to being placed in apartments on the trains especially setapart for negroes and claim that the majority of the negroes are more oe peaceable than the whites. Theyclaimthat | the passing of the law was almost entirely due to the spite work of the Democratic Leg- islature, which is prejudiced against the negroes and the Northern peoplein general, Since the passing of the law the negroes have been meeting all over the State and theac. tions of the representative body have been denounced in the bitterest terms, Many of the larger churches have also taken the matter in hand, and on two occasions bodies of colored people numbering from three to five hundred, have requested a hears ing before the Governor and Legislature, Some strong speeches were made against the bill at one of these meetings, but Judge Wm, » Who was one of its staunchest ad. vocates, in a succinct and pointed argument brought forward the merits of the bill in such a light that the plea of the blacks was of no avail. The colored people now claim that to enforce such a law would be unconstitutional and in direct violation of the constitution of the United States, as all American citizens are born free and equal. Meetings are being held every night in Louisville and Lexin and a most bitterfight may be expected be- fore the law can be enforced, The cause of the separate coach bills being brought before the Legislature was due to the numerous riots which have occurrea on the passenger trains throughout Kentucky during the past year. Several of these riots ended fatally and it almost became unsafe fora white person to ride on a passenger train on Sanday, on which day the negro ex- cursions are generally given. On one occas. sion last snmmer Conductor Wilder of the Louisville & Nashville road was forced to shoot a negro who was attempting tokill some white men, passengers on his train. — Last August a young white man 2 from Louisville took advantage of excursion sis rates to go to Ownsboro, which is a little over a hundred miles. A er ond of hegro excursionists boarded the aN ri 2 — bd * groes ely abusing the white man and he — unmereitulxy.

A large party of Frankfort people who had been in the city attending the ball occupied the last coach, and a num ber of ladies who were in the party were badly frightened at the action of the negroes, Numerous shots were fred from the win- dows and the few white people Woo were in the front coaches, fearing violence atthe hands of the drunken rioters were placed in the rear coach by the conductor, The negroes became furious that the . ee should have left the car, and about t a... armed blacks, headed by a desperate charace- ter named Westly Watson, forced their ax into the rear coach.

Dream, alias Neill, the suspected London girl poisoner and possible Jack-the-Ripper, began nuts career of wrong-doing in Canada, De- velopments in the interesting career of the man go to prove this fact. The story of his first crime was told here yesterday. It happened in 1876, when Cream was in his graduating year at McGill College. Rural Dean Lindsay performed the marriage cere- mony between Cream anda daughter of the Keéper of the Eastern Townships’ Hotel. The marriage took place under most peculiar cir- cumstances. A commercial traveler, Young Dy name, belonging to a well-known business firm in Toronto, had paid attentions to the g woman for some time, but finding that had encouraged her too much, he intro Guced Cream, who won the girl’s affections at once. ' Cream was atthe hotel almost constantly, and corresponded with the young woman when he was in the city, ending by ruining her under promise of marriage. Their correspondence lasted for some months, in secret, till one day Cream told the unsus- pecting hotel-keeper that he intended to go to London to finish his medical education. Late that night the most heartrending screams were heard from the young woman’s bed-room, The family rushed to her chamber f 1 : — N — * - 1 1 Thomas Neill, Alias Cream. and found her inagony.

The tract has 1,000 acres of land for 2 man, woman and boy attached tot 4 or 2,000 acres for e male person. Hundreds of*housands of acres are finely adapted to agriculture and thereis much rich timber land, The Indians can never put un- cultivation all of the available being The hemselves realize the situation, and for the most part are willing to have the reservation opened on the plan of makinga Drapes allotment for each family, and then epositing to tlie credit of the tribe the money from the sale of the remainder. The movement for breaking up the reservation has received impetus from recent discoveries of valuable mineralinthe northern portion. Then, too, there is a region rich m galena and gold which cannot be reached quickly, except by railroads through the res- ervation, for the barrier of the Cas- cade Mountains prevents access from the Puget Sound side. The development of mineraland agricultural resources, which would follow the opening of Colville, would be of greater immediate benefit to Spokane than toany other town, and consequently that city is straining every nerve to get fa vorable action by Congress, and from this distance it seems highly probable that if Spokane does not succeed this term she will next. Fortunately, she has no rival to oppose the plan. Tacoma and Seattle join in asking for the opening of the Puyallup Reservation, though the chief advantage from the change would be my to fall to Tacoma. For the 19,000 acres belonging to the Puyallups abut the Tacoma city limits on the north, and embrace half of Commencement Bay, which forms Tacoma’s harbor. Some of the land Is heavily timbered, and much of it in tue fertile bot- toms of the Puyallup River is good for farm- lag. No better soil for hop- growing exists in the State. Comparatively little is now un- der cultivation, but were it tilled it would be a’source of revenue and strength to Tacoma and Seattle as well. Some portions of the reservation are worth at least $600 an acre, and the average price for the whole is est!- Mated at $270. The Yakima reseservation of 800,000 acres, lies south of the center of the State, and the Northern Pacific railroad furnishes it with transportation facilities. But since thereis no large town near to profit by a settling of the land, no determined effort is now making to open the reservation, The Indians of Eastern Washington, which are not unlike those of the plains of the mia- dle West, are bold and aggressive, and with- in recent years have caused not a little trouble. Though they are slowly diminish- ing in number, they are not dying out as fast as those in the Puget Sound basin. Here the Indians are undersized, feeble, and spiritiess. The tribes are rapidly disappearing, anda ted decades will witness their total extinc- on. In ten years one tribe, the Quiniaults, in the Puyallup agency, has lost two-fifths of its members; the Makahs at Neah Bay fell off twenty-seven in one year. The figures from the other tribes are much the same. —— eee FEARS RETALIATION. The Ottawa Government Afraid of the Canal Question. MONTREAL, July 2.—Considerable excite- ment has been produced among the support- ers of the Ottawa Government by the action of the President and the Senate of the United States in reference to the discrimination of Canada against American vessels using our canals. Werethe Washington Government to retaliate by prohibiting the free passage of Canadian vessels through the St, Mary’s Falls Canal, or by withdrawing the bonding privilege now enjoyed by the Canadian Pacific and the Grand Trunk railroads in their business in the United States, Canadian commerce would be seriously crippled. Such a step on the part ofthe United States Gov- ernment would, however,in all probability be a blessing in disguise; for it would compel the Tory administration at Ottawa to relinguish its policy of bluster lost the power of speech In the spring inal prac- | and bravado towards the great repub- ie and to negotiate sincerely with | the Washington authorities fora treaty of |} commercial reciprocity. The negotiations | which bave from time to time been set in mo- tion by the lory Government for the ostenbi- ble purpose of endeavoring to secure a re- ciprocal arrangement with the United States have been filawrantiy hypocriticalin chbar- acter, the object being to throw dust in the eyes of the farmer, whois clamoring for free trade with his neighbors tothe south. The Tory Government keeps itself in power by the aid of the election funds subscribed by the protected manufacturers, whose interest, of course, itis to maintain a high tariff. It is significant of the growth of the demo- cratic sentimentin Canada that Sir Oliver Mowat, the Liberal Premier of Ontario, has thought it necessary to explain to his con- stituents his reasons for accepting a knight- hood from the queen. Ide Liberal press of the whole Dominion reproached him for taking the title. Thelate Alexander Mackenzie, the incorruptible Liberal leader, refused a knighthood. So have Mr. Wilfred Laurier and Mr. Edward Blake. They have regarded such tinsel gew-gaws as out of place in a country which is ~practically a public in all but name.

Sir Oliver considers the publication of such views in- consistent with his position, and 60 he caused him to remonstrated with a few weeks ago. shetemonstrance produced no change in Mr. Myeks’ views or course of action, and afterthe exchange of two or three letters he was asked to send in his resignation. This he refused to do, prefer- ring to let the Premier take upon himself the odium of dismissing him for expressing opinions On a matter which he claims the Government had no more righs to interfere with than with the expression of religious opinions. He holdsthese political views of his, he says, as a matter of conscience, and he will advocate them till the end of his life, come what may. Sir Oliver has now dis- missed him.

HE WILL CARRY ON THE CARDINAL'S WORK AMONG THE PEOPLE. He Discusses in an Interview the Diplo- matic Representation of the Vatican, Catholic Education and Christian Art —His Remarkable Family, His Life and His Great Labors. N Special Correspondence SUNDAY Post-DisPATcH. Lorpon, June 20.—When Bishop Vaughan ceed the late Cardinal Manning in the Roman Catholic archdiocese of Westminster many ventured the opinion that he was hardly fitted to succeed one who had been the idol of the common people and who had drawn that class toward his church in so Marvelous a manner. The criticisms of the new Archbishop were based rather on his family connections and on his supposed political opinions than on his hte and work. His Grace is one of the proprietors of the Tablet, a Catholic organ that takes the Unionist side in the Irish question. He belongs to one of those old English families which include the Howards, Petres and many others, who have never forsaken the church of their ancestors and who had little sympathy with Cardinal Manning’s Democracy. They are among the most ancient members of the British aris- tocracy, and some of them seem to regard it as one of the privileges of their rank to be Catholic in the midst of a Protestant popula- tion, which privilege they did not care to gsbare with the mob. This is not true of the Duke of Norfolk, the head of the Howard family, who, although a Tory, has devoted of Salford, England, was appointed to suc- turn to the Middle Ages, but only to the spirit the 1 tender 2. of the 51 ide age, but to counteract with the imagination t thing Sia anbentensn to grea . oa v start this work in the diocese of Salford. H you come down to my private chapel I will show you a s men of this mogernized medieval art, if 1 may so term his flowing some corri- t d e erg = — une specimen of modern Ohristian art. In an earlier part of the conversation in answer to a question as to the desirability from the point of view of both parties of the Vatican being diplomatically represented at London, he said: „Iwill endeavor to answer it as best I can. It must always be for the good of the world that governments should be in direct relation with the greatest moral power in the world— a power whose influend® runs through every country in which Catholics are to be found. Even such a State as Protestant Prussia rec- ognizes this.

Buta Papal Nuncio could never, as a rule, be one of the Bishops of that country, for the reason that he is not removable at will, The Holy Father ought to be perfectly free to remove hisagent at any moment. Now a bishop cannot be removed except for some great ecclesiastical offense. A man might for be an ad- mirabie a shocking bad Nuncio. Many a good man I Know would, quite innocently, get himself and the Holy see into terrible and continuous hot water, and yet, by virtue of his local Episcopate, be irremovabie. He ought to be a free agent. Then again, a Papal Nuncio might be expected to exercise a certain oversight on the part of the Holy See over the hierarchy. A diocesan bishop would not always be a suitable poreces for this. At the same time, whilst I think that in many ways, ifit could be managed, —— — — — — Oo . Archbishop Herbert Vaughan. his fortune and his efforts to advancing the real interests of the church, Though such are the Archbishop’s assocla- tions there is no doubt he will carry on his great predecessor’s work to the best of his ability in the same spirit. Before his elevation to the See of Salford in 1872 the Rev. Herbert Vaughan was a member of the community of the Oblates of St. Charles Borromeo, founded in London by Cardinal Manning. He had been closely associated with the latter in all kinds of work, was esteemed by him as the most valuable of his subordinates an thoroughly understood the Cardinal’s aims and character. The Archbishop isa strikingly handsome man. His figure ts tall and commanding and he bears the stamp of blood and breeding. intellectual, and what would bo severity is softened by large and kindly ayes. He has always enjoyed personal popularity. In con- versation he is quick and witty and has mucn ofthe mannerof aman of the world. He looks every incha Prince of the Church, which he no doubt will be before long. Cardinal Wiseman established the Roman Catholic hierarchy in England on its present basis and Cardinal Manning, his successor, devoted his lifeto the improvement of the condition of the working classes and the re- lief of the poor and taught them to look to the church for help in matters material and political as well as spiritual. It is Archbishop Vaughan’s avowed intention to carry on Car- dinal Manning’s work. ‘*I believe,’’ said his Grace to the inter- viewer, ‘‘that England will become Catholic, for she is already half Catholic. I do not mean that half the population has become so, but that half a revolution has been made towards Catholicism. As we have seen, the mental attitude of England towards Catholl- cism has undergone a great change. Take, for instance, the High Church movement. They are doing a great service for us, for though it is true they arrest some who would otherwise have come Over to us, yet on the whole they are doing our work, and nearly all the old controversies have died out.’’ It was suggested toehis Grace that he did not make allowance for the School of High Churchmen, which had produced Leux I. Mundi, of which Cardinal Gibbons said it was worse than the Essays and Reviews“ of his Anglican days. It only goes to prove my assertion, he replied, ‘‘that there are two currents even in the very Church of England itself to-day, one towards Catholicism and the other towards rationalism. It is only what I would expect in a church ot 60 many inconsist- encies. — — — nag ah 2 I think, be Catholic throughout t main reli gi will be so without a doubt.“ a How do you expect to effect this?

The less said about poli- tics the better. The Holy See has no interest in pare political questions. If. we consider politics at all it must be only from the relig ious point of view. It is our duty to secure the religion and the peace of the world. I trust that our insular prejudices will before very long break down sofar as to make us recognize, as Germany, Turkey and all the greater and lesser powers do, that there can be nothing but gain for peace by open diplo- matic relations with the Holy See. For my part I can sympathize with those who dread secret reilatſons and what is called ‘back stairs’ influence; but the one way of sweeping this away altogether is to be open like Englishmen, and to say: ‘Yes there is a great world-wide beneficent moral power at the Vatican; we willopen public reiations with it like all the other powers of Europe whether Catholic or not, and everything shall be above board.’ Well, as you have asked me, these are my opinions. But I have no office to speak on such subjects. I do not feel called upon to move one single step forward in the matter. There is much more im- portant work for me close at hand, and to that iwork I must devote myself, heart and soul. To what do you attribute the change of opinion and attitude of the English people toward your church that has taken place within the past fifty years?’’ **Emphatically,’’ replied the Archbishop, eit is a chan that comes of a better knowledge of the Catholic Church.

Vaughan ‘of Courtfield, in Herefordshire, and was born in 1882. Of Col. Vaughan’s eight sons six en- tered the Church, five of them passing the succession of Courtifela to a younger brother in order to do soi. Roger Bede Vaughan, now dead, became Archbishop of Sidney. Father Jerome Vaughan founded several Benedic- tine communities. Father Bernard Vaughan is a celebrated preacher in the Jesuit Society. Father Kevelin Vaughan was a missionary in South America, and with bis brother, Father John, isnow attached to the House of Ex- lanation in Chelsea, London. Six sisters of he New Archers took the veil. All his fath- er’s brothers became priests. The family in past times has produced many distinguished ecclesiastics. e Archbishop is a and- nephew orf Cardinal Weldand a nephew of the present Bishop of Plymouth. Herbert Vaughan was educated at Stony- hurst, the great Catholic public school of England, and at various places abroad, chiefly at Rome. He was a volunteer in the Crimean war, and devised a new kind of rifle-pit. He has always shown ingenuity and a great capacity for hard work, After he entered the posers he joined Dr. Manning’s community of Obiates, n Lon- don. Later he founded the st. Joseph's go- clety ofthe Sacred Heart for Fore Mis- sions, and as a missionary visited this coun- — * where a college of the society for the education of negroes was established at Bal - timore. He has previously expressed his belief, which is indicated in the interview, in a com-. ing social revolution. He has never used language so strong as his predecessor, Cardi- nal Manning, who said that if men wer hungry ag justified in taking food d. force. He believes that the soctal revolution will be accomplished peaceably. When he was appointed to the Bishopric of Saltford in 1872, be entered on a career in that diocese during which he accomplished great things. One of his achievements was the building of St. Bede’s College near Manches- ter, an institution which provides an excel- lent commercial education for Catholic young men, and st. Bede’s College onthe Rhine for the study of modern languages. At this Manchester college he made a small beginning with his School of Christian Art. He bullt a seminary for his priests, a rescue society in his diocese and the enormous Col- lege of the St. Joseph Missionary Society at Mill um. For three years he gave his official income to the Rescue Society. Archbishop Vaughan has advocated the provision of public places of recreation, in- cluding theaters of varieties, by 1 authorities. He would permit the drinking oflager and light alcoholic refreshment at these places. Heis, however,a good friend of temperance, and only ceased to be a total abstainer when he received doctor’s orders. CATHOLIC EDUCATIONAL EXHIBIT. What Manager Maurelian Is Doing for the Big Display. CuicaGco, III., July 2.— The Catholic educa- tional exhibit to be made at the World’s Fair will certainly be an extensive one if Bro. Maurelian, the Secretary and managing director, carries out his plans. He has been bard at work for several months and proposes to keep up his efforts until the exhibit is fully arranged in the Educational building of the Columbian Exposition. The movement has met with the heartiest co- operation of Cardinal Gibbons and all thé archbishops and bishops of the country. Speaking on this subject Bishop Spalding of Peoria, III., said while he was here attending the Kenrick Golden Jubilee exercises that the exhibit should be one that would reflect credit on Catholic educationt He said in substance: An international exposition is universally recognized as a potent factor in diffusing knowledge and in promoting and stimulating all that relates to the arts and sciences, commerce and manufactures, and, in fact to all interests which affect the well- being o the human race. Recognizing the fact that the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1898 will be the opportunity ofa century to exhibit the results of the best systems of ed- ucation and to enable educators from all arts of the country to make a thorough and ntelligent study of allthat relates to their noble profession, the most reverend arch- bishops extended an invitation to all dioceses, religious teaching orders of men and women and to all Catholic institutions of learning to unite in a national Catholic edu- cational exhibit.’’ Among other things Bro. Maurellan con- templates issuing an illustrated volume of the Catholic educational exhibit. He hopes to produce a volume that will be given a wel- come in every — and be rized by every person interested in hristian education. Bro. Maurelian fs now engaged sending out literature to all the colleges and universities condurted under Roman Catholic auspices. In this wa he expects to get the exhibit fully arrange before the buildings ofthe World's Fair are formally opened. FRANK JAMES’ HOUSE. Chicagoans Want It for a World’s Fair Exhibit. NEVADA, Mo., July 2.— The beautiful five- room residence of the noted Frank James, on South Cedar street, which was purchased by Jack Saunders several months since for a home, has been visited by several Chicago and Eastern capitalists who desire to pur- chase and remove it to the World’s Fair. Offers bave been made for the residence, but no trade has as yet been consummated, The Posr-Dis raren correspondent inter- viewed several different persons who were well acquainted with Frank James and he learns that Capt. W. C. Bronough, a promi- nent ex-Confeverate and well known all over southwest Missouri, as he is connected with one of the principal departments of the Mis- souri!, Kansas & Texas road, made an effort during the year 1880 to raise subscriptions to purchase a home for Frank James, as he de- sired to settle down and make his home in some pleasant city. Capt. Bronough madea canvass, collecting subscriptions at every point he visited. Atlast by his energy he raised enough money to purchase this residence, and it was pre- sented to him. He removed to Nevada and remained here several years, and was engaged in the shoe business. He afterward took a notion to locate in Texas, and left his roperty in the hands of R. J. McGowan, Vice-President of Bank of Nevada, who afterward disposed of it to its present owner. The house has been visited by thousands of people who have had a great curiosity to view the home of Frank James. Some have plucked flowers and others have picked@*up wood or stone to keep as a remembrances of their trip.

The new church connected with the st. -Louls University, Lindell and Grand ay- niles, is to be completed forthwith. This week the contract for the cut stone work was let to the st. Louis Cut Stone Co. It will aggregate $200,000—perhaps more. Some two years will de consumed in doing this part of the work. Now that the college year is ended, the pro- fessors, etc. are beginning to scatter; Father Grimmelsmann,the President, will have to remain in town to supervise the resumption of word on the church, but the Rev. P. J. Mulconry, 8. J., Vice-President of st. Louis University, will chaperon a class of some forty or fifty of the ‘‘philosophers’’ to Beulah Island, near Milwaukee, where the young gentiemen will continue their studies botany, entomology, etc. Profs. Moulinier, O’Maliey, Hermann, Mur- phy and E. P. Sullivan will spend their vaca- tion on one of the beautiful islands in the Detroit River. Prof. Maurice D. Sullivan will go geologiz- ing out West. Prof, William Hornsby, 8. J., sailed from San Francisco on the 25th for China. WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY. SEVERAL OF THE PROFESSORS HAVE ARRANGED FOR OUTING WITH THEIR CLASSES. Prof. Fairbanks, principal of Smith Academy, will conduct a party of half a dozen through Europe. The party will em- brace Dr. Fairbanks himself, Mr. Wm. W. Gale, teacher of Greek in zmith Academy; Messrs. Chas. A. Madill and Albert E. Minto, students in Washington Uuniversity, and Messrs. Leone C. Gale, Lemoine Somerville and George W. Maxwell, students in Smith Academy. The excursionists sailed from New York on June 22 on the White Star steamer Majestic. Upon landing at Queenstown the party will spend three or four days in Ireland, andabouta month will be spent in Scotiand and England and a week in Belgium. The course will then be up the Rhine; a week or ten days will be spent in Switzerland, and about two weeks in Paris and the surrounding country. Thence they will return to New York early in September. While in Engiand and Scot- land special attention will be given toa study of the great preparatory schools, and of course visits will be made tothe noted places immortalized by their connection with great events in British history, or be- cause of their figuring in the writings of cele- brated authors. Prof. Curd of Smith Academy is now in Europe with the following young men: Tom Matt, Ray Carter, Julius Boyer, Perry Lewis and Elgin Brooks. The party will visit England, France, Switzerland, Italy and Germany and will be gone about three months, Prof. H. S. Pritchett will spend his vacation runnimg the hundredth meridian, which is the boundary line between Texas and the Indian Territory. This has been a matter ot dispute for many years, and it seems to be admitted that the line is out of place by perhaps sev- eral miles. Prof. Pritchett is doing the work in the interest of the State of Texas. There are some indications that real estate specu- lators have been gambling on the wherea- bouts of the line. Prof, Pritchett tells this curious story: Two or three years ago a man came to Washington University and desired to learn enough of astronomy, etc., to enable him to run a line. He spent some time with us and on being pressed to disclose what his idea was de told us that he wanted to und out where this boundary line was; he had an idea that the existing line was possibiy 100 miles from the true meridian, and he conveyed the idea that if he could only lo- cate the boundary closely he would have as big a bonanza as a reasonable man could wish. However, he didn’t get along very well with his astronomical studies, and finally he left us. I have been in correspondence some time with the Texas authorities about this line, and an arrangement has just been con- cluded by which I spend my vacation in this work. Chancellor Chaplin and family will spend their vacation at Chocarua, N. H. Prof. Woodward, with his wife and eldest daughter, and Miss Cox of the Manual Tran: ing School, have left for Europe. Much of their vacation will be spent in England. Prof. George E. Jackson spends the sum- mer where the soldier of the legion lay dy- ing—namely, in Algiers. rof. M. 8.

Prof. William Trelease is pursuing botanic investigations in Colorado, * and Mrs. Woods will summer in the ast. Prof. Edward P. Perry is at Quincy, III. Prof. George W. Krall of the Manual Train ing School will take a course in physics in the Harvard Summer School. Prof. E. H. Sears of Mary Institute will rusticate at Weston, Mass., and Miss Annie ae Wall will summer at New bedford, ass. Prot. Edward F. Jackson of Smith Academy will go to Italy to study archeology in Rome and rompell,and Mr. P. E. More will goto Harvard as a graduate student. Prof. J. B. Johnson hasa class of eight or ten of his boys in a summer school in survey- ing at Piasa Bluffs. COLLEGE IS OPEN TO THEM. Winners of the Joseph Puliteer Scholar shfp for 1892. New Yorn, July 2.—The winners of the Pulitzer scholarships have been announced, These scholarships have come to be looked upon as being among the greatest prizes offered graduates in the public schools of this city and the awards arouse the keenest inter- est. ; In the year 1889 Joseph Pulitzer gave twelve scholarships to the pupils of the pub. lic schools of New York to enable them to ac- quire a collegiate education. Each scholar. ship was to continue for five years, $250 being paid to the scholar in each of the five years. The award of these scholarships was deter- mined by the result of the examination for admission to the College of the City of New York, Dut the successful competitors were privileged to select a course in Harvard, ale, Columbia, Princeton or Cornell. Mr. Pulitzer gave more than a year’s trial to the first experiment and he was so well satisfied with the work of the scholars that he ronewed his offer of twelve scholarsh! : = 1891 and again in 1892.

A NEW COMMANDER Direct the American Salvation Army. Ballington Booth, commander of the Salva- tion Army forces in America, has received information from England that his father, Gen. Booth, had decided to send another son, Commander Herbert H. Booth, to this country. Tue army is about to redouble its energies in this country and, as Gen. Booth says, pille on more fuel in America. it is not unlikely that the second son of Gen, Booth to come to America will take charge of , Mrs. Herbert Booth, Canada and the lake States. He ts the favor- ite son of the General and he weddeda young English woman of high standing in English society. Mrs. Booth is sald to be very beauti- ful and wealthy. She is an accomplished musician. Ballinston Booth said that Mrs, Booth was one of the most accomplished women in all England. She is an excellent linguist and a skiliful musician. She has composed both the words and music of many beautiful songs. A BOCIETY WOMAN AND SONG-WRITER. One of them, written by Mrs, Herbert Booth to the air of the Miserere in II Trovatore,’’ is sung by all denominations of church-going people in England. Hereare a few sample verses: Wealth of this world Gelighting, Are you wy heart inviting Richer am I than all your gathered gold. Farewell farewell! farewell! I've @ treasure untold!

My robes are pure! easures of earth enticing, You have no joy sufficing; ladne ave | your toys can never bring, arewell! farewell! farewell! m the child of a King. Mrs. Booth wrote the verses soon after leaving the social world of London, where, it is said, she Wasa reigning belle.

This primitive system of would not be worthy of mention were it not forthe fact that it continued, with few modifications, until nearthe close ofthe last century. As Fort st. Louis grew and its trade increased the post traders, who were the leading men of the community, felt the necessity of a common currency. THE FIRST CURRENCY. This was found in the wampum that a century before had been abandoned in the colonies. The wampum was not generally known by that name in the Mis- sissippi Valley, but was usually referred to tion of the term this plag currency thou- The currency consisted of white and purple beads of shell, stone or glass, pierced for ' stringing. The purple beads were worth twice as much as the white, and a fixed tariff in skins was established. It must not be imagined that the Indians alone dealt in these beads. There are deeds on record showing the transfer of land worth to day many hundreds of thousands of dollars for so many strings of plag. BARTER CURRENCY. The wampum currency was succeeded about 1780 by what was known as the bar- ter currency.’’ This consisted of skins and furs, the principal medium of exchange be- ing lead, whisky and sugar. The beaver Skin was the standard, and each hide had its fixed value. To drink whisky was to drink gold, for this article bore a very high price, the fur traders carefully keeping the traffic in their own hands. Regular bank-books were Kept by the great fur-trading firms, their hunters and voyageurs be- ing given books not unlike the modern check-books, in which they were debited in terms of skins with the supplies furnised them at the beginning of an expedition, and credited with the itries they returned. At various points in he West and Northwest these firms had agencier, at which their accounts were paid. Voyageurs andtrappers who would not for years return to St. Louis would buy their supplies with blanks taken from their accoun ks, and with the fall flotilla these checks would be sent to st. Louis. When they arrived the different traders would meet, each would present the checks on other houses paid by his agents, and the difference would be settled. Such was the first clearing house of this city. At the opening of the century the ‘‘barter currency’’ began to be insufficient for the needs of trade, but silver was still scarce. Gold was not thought of. In those days a silver dollar was smaller than a cartwheel, but not so very much smaller. A trader of the famous Laclede family provided the first Small metallic currency. He took a quantity of Spanish dollars and cut trem into eight feces. Each of these pleces was known asa t and the term survives to the present day. THE FIRST BANK. It was not until after the cession of Louls- jana to the Unſted States tbat anyone thought of establishing a regular bank of discount and deposit. The few having money atcom.- mand were in the habit of depositing it with the principal business men of the town and drawing upon their deposit as occasion required. In 1807 Auguste Chouteau opened a bankers’ and brokers’ office, but itis not to be ranked as a bank, for it was distinctly subordinate to his fur business. But with the influx of emigrants aid the great development of land specula- tion, the necessity for a regular bank became apparent. According!y in 1816 a meeting of citizens was called and the first bank was orwanized. It was called the Bank of St. Louis, and had a capital of $15,000, a great sumin those days. Auguste Chouteau was the largest stockholder, and was President. The bank was located at his residence, on the corner of Main and Pine street; then about the center of the city. The house was a two-story log building, on t lower floor was the bank, and the wareho where the fur trade was carried on and the supplies kept. On the upper floor dwelt Chouteau, his wife,and his family. All traces of the oid building have long since disappeared. So active was speculation, and so larse the interest paid for money, that within a year another bank was organized. This was the Bank of Missouri. * The leading spirit was J. B. C. Lucas, but to prevent too keen competition he took Auguste Chouteeu into partnership. For years these two banks were the financial rulers ofthetown. Those were the halcyon days of banking. With a combined capital of $85,000 the two banks did a most profitable business. Favored customers were charged 1b per cent, otbers all that the trade would stand. Ihe social status of a man was largely measurea by the dalance in bank. and it became a matter of pride to keep this at as high a figure as possible. every dollar that could be saved was banked, and when there was a demand for cash the depositors would, rather than diminish their balance, an act that was re- garded as one of improvidence, give notes, and pay the bankersa high rate of interest for the privilege of using their oon money. THE UNITED STATES BANK BRANCH. This state of affairs continued until about 1825. By that time, however, there was a large influx of Anglo-Saxon blood, and a number of private banks sprang up and divided the profits with what were known as the Creole banks. It was not, however, until 1829that a truly formidable rivalarose. In that year the Branch Bank of the United States was founded. This, with the creditof the great Bank of the United States behind it, threatened to absorb all the business, with its lower rates of discount and larger capital. But just at this time President Jackson began his war onthe Bank of the United States. He refused to extend thecharter of the Missouri Branch, and In 1836 It expired by limitation. The ——— had been too large for the field to be abandoned, and the business was as- sumed by the Bank of Pennsylvania. With the suspension of s le yment by the Bank ofthe United States, the St. Louis branch went out ofexistence. Both the Bank of St. Louis and the Bank of Missouri had ne out of business some time tore, and the Cincinnati Commercial Agency established a branch here, and took the business of the old banks. In April, 1887, the bank of the State of Missouri, which was destined to be for many years the most influential financial institution in the State, was organized, the incorporators being Henry Walton, Hugh O’ Neill, John B. he John O'Fallon and Geo. K. McGun- e. 4 THER PANIC OF 1855, Owing to the failure of the Bank of the United States, specie pay nts were sus- ded by nearly all nks until 1841.

C., standing alone as the only first- class depository, the central point for all national banks being, as a matter of course, United States Treasury. Under the rules the Treasury Department, cities of the ‘ad-class are not permitted to do their banking with cities of the same class, but must find their depositories with the next higher grade. This fact has therefore caused Sst. Louis to become the bankin center of many cities of the third-class whi until the advancement already noted, did their banking elsewhere. The result has been, on figures supplied by the leading local banks, an average increase of deposits from outside banks and correspondents of from $3,000,000 to $5,000,000, and a corresponding in- crease in business necessarily diverted to St. Louis by this legitimate change in the finan- cial current. The banks of this city have been brought into closer and more ad- vantageous financial relations with a large territory not naturally tributary to st. Louis heretofore. The St. Louis trust companies, under laws posses inthis State during 1891, have also argeiy extended their field of operation. They are now authorized by law to receive moneys in trust and to accumulate the same at interest ; to receive all r ot property in trust. rsonal or real, by assignment, transfer, devise or bequest, made by deed or decree of court; to execute trusts for married women ; to act as agents for the investment of money for persons or corporations; to register, transfer or counters! stocks and bonds for corporations th public and private; to act as guardians, executors, assigns or administrators; to guarantee titles to real estate and become sole surety in bonds for private persons or for officers, or any bond required by law to be given; to loan money on real estate or col- lateral security and toissue notes and de- dentures; to buy and sell all kinds of bonds and other negotiable or non-negotiable apers, stocks and other investment secur- ties. These extensions of the scope of opera- tion possible to trust companies are part of the financial history of St. uis for 1891, and add very materially to its financial im- portance.

A GREAT PHILATELIC FIND. A Stamp Worth Over $1,000 Found at an Autcgraph Sale. ‘ Ata recent sale in Philadelphia of the auto- graph collection made by Dr. J. H. Caustin of Washington, D.

The next to the last letter in the bundle was in — —— — rere of FA e the original envelope, and it had been writ- ten Oct. 20, 1845, by Prof. Benjamin Silliman of Yale College, and malled the next day, Oct. 21, from New Haven. It had in the up- per right hand corner the long-sought-for ostage stamp, signed by E. A. Mitchell, ostmaster. Here is a fac-simile of the envelope: This postage stamp is the rarest in all the Americana. Offers of $1,000, $1,200 and $1,500 were promptly made, The news of the find was telegraphed to Europe, and Kuropean collectors have been given till June 30 to make their bids for it.

This cut stamp hitherto has been the only ope known to be in existence, and its quoyed value inthe catalogue is $500. The stamp on the envelope sent by Benjamin Sillimgn is, of course, worth very much more, ds the philatelist knows. It is on the original en- velope, and there can be no question its authenticity.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NATIV GOVERN- MENT OF THE 2 Special Correspondence 8 TALAQUAH, I. T., J 38 continent prior ¥en a fairly correct elal and political condi- ed tribes, The history of the Muskogees, or Creeks, Cherokees, Ohoctaws and Chickasaws, their wonderful strides in civilization, the unique fact of their legislative independence and va- rying forms of government, are matters that have not yet been em in books. It isasad commentary on the literary enter- — of the day that no effort has been made — * the gentler achievements in his wilder days. the ever-increasing inroads of the whites, the tribal governments will inevitably be dissolved and the historically curious con- dition of affairs to-day existing in the Indian Territory will cease, FORM OF GOVERNMENT. All of the nations of the Indian Territory have modeled their forms of government on that of the United States. That of the Muskogees differs considerably from the others, following to a great extent the old Creek code. The admixture of semi-barbaric and modern elements in its construction seems to suggest that its pioneers were forced to compromise with an element opposed toa wholesale innovation in the form of govern- ment. The facts of the case substantiate this view. When the constitution was§first sub- mitted tothe people the full bloods opposed it violently becuuse of its extremely modern tendencies. Your full-blooded Indian is nat- urally suspicious about the white man’s way of doing things. The constitution was carried however without importaut change after a strong debate. The framers showed great tact by injecting enough of the old Creek code to satisfy the full bloods without however impairing the force of the modern forms. The executive control of the voters is in the hands of one principal chief, one second chief, forty-seven members of the House of Kings and ninety-eight of the House of Warriors. The members of both Houses are sent up from the townships or petty governments, each sending one member to the Kings and from one to three Warriors, according to their population. The principal chief holds Office for four years, drawing an annual sal- ary ot $1,000. The second chief, whose offi- cial duties are an unknown quantity, draws $700. The members of the legislative body are paid $4a day while on dctive duty. The Creek Nation expends over $20,000 yearly for he luxury of law-making. THE CREEK CABINET. There are five cabinet officers, national treasurer, auditor, agent, attorney, and sec- retary. They draw salaries from $300 to $600. There are six judicidl districts and a supreme court which meets twice a year and is repre- sented by five supreme judges. A striking ‘feature of the constitution is that to hold legislative or judicial office in the Nation itis necessary to be of Indian blood. This puts the government wholly in the hands of the Indian people. The Choctaws are a peculiar people inas- much as they have an excellent code of laws, and being a raceof intelligent people are good law makers, but they do not elect their wisest men to fill executive . offices. They are a nation of politicians, preferring men in office whom they can rule instead of men who would rule them. Their principal chief is elected for two years. After him come the Four District chiefs. The law-making body is composed of four Senators from each district and members of the House elected on a repre- sentation of one to each 1,000 inhabitants. In order to be an office-holderit is necessary to be of Indian blood; although there is a treaty provision tothe contrary. A seat in the legislative body is one of the highest honors that can be conferred on a citizen, and the contests during election times are brisk and exciting. The people are naturally gifted orators, and the proceedings of their councils are decidedly interesting. The busi- ness is conducted in the native tongue and translated into English. The principal chief is armed with a veto power, which is all-powerfu!, except there be a two-thirds majority against him. The nation has a supreme Court presided over by three District Judges, one of whom is styled the Chief Justice. CHICKASAW GOVERNMENT. The government of the Chickasaw Nation is patterned after that ofthe Choctaws. The principal executive officer, however, is styled Governor,“ instead of Principal Chief. The Nation is divided into four coun- ties, each of which returns three Senators and eight representatives to the Legislature. The Legislature, previous to the disfranchisement of the white citizens, had risen to a higher plane than any other body of lawmakers in the Territory. The House and Senate are now composed exclusively of full bloods. The judicial powers are vested in a Supreme, District and County Courts. The Governor appoints a Cabinet, consisting ofa National Secretary, Agentand Treasurer. The Attor- ney-General is chosen by ballot. A Superin- tendent of Public Instruction is elected by the Legislature, who devotes his time to fos- tering and inspecting the work of education in the Nation. CHEROKEE CONSTITUTION. The constitution adopted by the Cherokees in 1838 is based upon that of the United States, and difiers from that of the Creeks in only a few features. The tee officer is the Zu preme Chief, elected by popular vote for four years. He is assisted by a cabinet com ed of five officers —— by the National Council. The judicial branch is conducted similarly to that of the Chickasaws. The legislative y is divided into two branches — the Senate and National Council. Though nearly all Cherokees, the men are exceedingly inteln gent, and their proceedings might put to shame a great many State Legislatures. Their laws based on the common code are carried out with great precision. In fact, the affairs of the natives are conducted with much more reguiarity than any of the other nations, and with much less expenditure of money. The official class is composed competent and willing men, who have the ability to comprehend the public weal and faithfully serve it. A comparison between the condition of the five civilized tribes to-day and that of their brethren inthe States who remained sub- servientto the American laws will show the beneficent and civilizing infilmence to be de- rived from the incomparable blessing of self- government.

My house was the last on the east; there was a cape ot woods and cliffs behind that hid the sunrise. To the west, a swift, cold river ran down, and be- you@ was the green of the village, dotted with cocoa palms and breadtruits ana houses. The shutters were some of them down and some open; I saw the mosquito bars still stretched, with shadows of people | new-awakened sitting up inside; and all over the green others were stalking silent, in their many-colored sleeping clothes like Bedouins in Bible pictures. It was Mortal still and solemn and chilly, and the light of the dawn on the lagoon was like theshining of a fire. Bat the thing that troubied me was nearer at hand. Some dozen young men and chil- Aren made a piece of a half circle flanking my house; the river divided them, some were on the near side, some on the far and one on a boulder inthe midst, and they all sat si- lent, wrapped in their sheets, and stared at me and my house as straight as pointer dogs. I thought it strange as I went out. When! had bathed and ccme back again and found them all there, and two or three more along with them, I thought it stranger still. What could they see to gaze at in my house? 1 wondered, and went in. But the thought of these starers stuck in my mind, and presently 1 came out again. The sun was now up, but it was still behind the cape of woods. Say a quarter of an hour had come and gone. The crowd was greatly increased, the far bank of the river was lined for quite a way, perhaps thirty grown Tolk, and of children twice as many, some standing, some squatted on the ground, and all staring at my house. I have seen a bouse in a South Sea village thus surrounded, but then a trader was tbrashing his wife inside, and she sincing out. Here was nothing—the stove was allght, the smoke gomg up ina Christian manner; all was shipshape and Bristol fashion. To be sure there was a stranger come, but they hada chance to see that stranger yesterday, and took it quiet enougt. Whatailed them now? I leaned my arms on the rafl and stared back. Devil a wink they had in them! Now and then! could see the children chatter, but they spoke so low, not even the hum of their speaking came my length. The rest were like graven images; they stared at me, dumb and sorrowful, with their bright ey came upon me things would 100 different if 1 were on the platfor lows and these good folk had hanged, I felt I was getting daunted, I began to be afraid 1 looked it, which woulu never do. Up I stood, made believe to stretch myself, came down the veranda stair, and strolled toward the river. There went a short buzz from one tothe other, like what you hear in the theaters when the curtain goes up; and some of the nearest gave back the mat- ter ofa pace. Isawa girl lay one hand ona young man anc make a gesture upward with the other; at the same time she said some- thinginthe native tongue witha gasping voice.

So much for the morning, but the day passed and the devil anyone looked near me, and from all I knew of natives in other islands I thought this strange. People laughed a littie at our firm and their fine stations, and at this station of Falesa in par- ticular; all the copra in the district wouldn’t pay for it (I had heard them say) iu filty years, which I supposed was an exaggera- tion. But when the day went, and no busi- ness came at all, I Degan to get downhearted; and, about 8 in the afternoon, I went out for astrolitocheermeup. On the green I saw a white man coming with a cassock on, by which and by the face of him Iknew he was a priest. He was a good-natured old soul to look at, gone a little grizzled, and so dirty you could have written with him on a piece of paper. **Good day, sir,’’ says I. He answered me eagerly in native. **Don’t you speak any English?’’ said I. hammering on the door outside, and crying on the natives to come and beat it in, and singing out it wasasoul he wished to save, and that.

There never were such larks in Falesa. The end of it was that Capt. Randall Knocked over with some kind of a fit or stroke, and the priest got in his goodsafterall. But he was the angriest priest you ever heard of, and complained to the chiefs about the.outrage, as he called it. That was no account, for our chiefs are Protestant here; and, anyway, he had been been making trouble about the drum for morning School, and they were glad to give him a wipe, Now he swears old Randall gave him poison or something, and when the two meet they grin at each other like Daboons.’’ He told this story as natural as could be, and like a man that enjoyed the fun; though now I come to think of it after so long, it seems rathera sickening yarn. However, Oase never set up to be soft, only to be square and hearty, anda man all round; and to tell the truth, he puzzled me entirely. Iwent home and asked Uma if she were a Popey, which I had made out to be the native word for Catholics, - **E leai!’’ says she. She always used the native when she meant ‘‘no’’ more than „wen,“ said he, clapping down the lan- tern on the veranda steps, I would never have believed it. I don’t know where the: im pudence of these Kanakas li go next, they seem to have lost all idea of respect for whites. What we want is a man-of-war;a German, tf we could—they know how to man- age Kanakas. I am tabooed, hen?“ I cried. „Something Of the sort, said he. It's the worst thing of the kind I've heard of yet. But I'n stand dy you, Wiltshire, man to man. You come round here to-morrow about 9, and we'll have it out with the chiefs. They’re afraid of me, or they used to be, but their heads are so big by now, I don’t know whatto think. Understand me, Wiltshire; I don’t count this your quarrel, he went on, with a great deal of resolution: ‘‘I count it all of our quarrel; I count it the white man’s quarrel, and I’ stand to it through thick and thin, and there's my hand on n. Have you found out what's the reason?“ I asked. Not yet, said Oase. them down to-morrow,’’ Altogether I was pretty well pleased with his attitude, and almost more the next day when we met to go beforethe chiefs, to see him so stern and resolved. The chiefs awaited us in one of their big oval houses, which was marked out to us from a long way off by the crowd about the eaves, 100 strong if there was one—mMmen, women and children, Many of the men were on their way to work, and wore green wreaths,and it put mein thoughts of the first of May at home. This crowd opened and bugged about the pair of us as we went in, with asudden angry ani- matjon. Five chiefs were there; four mighty, stately men, the fifth old and puck- ered. They sat on mats in thelr white kilts and jacxets; they had fans in their hands like fine ladies, and two of the younger „But we'll fire THE TABOO. „French, says he. ‘*Well,’’ said I, I'm sorry, but I can’t do anything there.“ He tried me awhile in the French and then again in the native,which he seemed to think was the best chance. I made out he was after more than passing the time of day with me, but had something to communicate, and listened the harder. I heard the names of Adams and Case and of Randall—Randali the oftenest—and the word ‘‘poison,’’ or some- thing like it, anda native word that he said very often. I went home repeating it to myself. What does fussy-ocky mean?“ Iasked of Uma, for that was as near as I could come to it. Make dead, said she. „The devil it does! says I. Did ever vou hear that Case had polsoned Johnnie Adams? Every man he savvy that, says Uma, scornful like. ‘*‘Give him white sand— bad sand. He got the bottle still. Suppose he give you gin, you no take him.“ Now lI had heard much the same sort of story inother islands, and the same white powderto the front, which made me think the less of it. Forall that, I went over to Randall’s place tosee whatI could pick up, and found Case on the doorstep cleaning a gun. Good shooting here?“ says I. „I,“ Says he. The bush is full of all kinds of birds. I wish copra was a plenty, says he—I thought slyly—‘‘but there don’t seem anything dong.“ I could see Black Jack inthe store serving a customer. „That looks like business, though, sald 1. „That's the first sale we've made in three Weeks, said he. jou don’t tell mer“ weeks? Well, well.“ It you don’t believe me, he cries, a little hot, ou can go and look at the copra house. It’s half empty to this blessed hour.’’ **] shouldn’t be much the better for that, you see, says I. For all Ican tell it might have been whole empty yesterday. That's so, he says, with a bit ofa laugh. ‘*By-the-by,’’ I said, ‘‘what sort of a party is that priest? Seems rather a friendly sort. At this Case laughed right out loud. Ah, says he, ‘‘I see what alls you now! Galuchet’s been at vou. Father Galoshes was the name he went by most, but Case always gave it the French quirk, which was another reason we had for thinking him above the common. Tes, Ihave seen him, Isays. ‘‘I made out he didn’t think much of your Capt. Ran- dall. „That he don't!“ says Case. It was the trouble about poor Adams. The last day, when he lay dying, there was young Bun- comberound. Ever met Buncombe?’’ 1 told him no. „He's a cure, is Buncombe!’’ laughs Case. „Well, Buncombe took it in his head that, as there was no other clergyman about, bar Kanaka pastors, we oughttocall in Father Galuchet. It was all the same to me, you may suppose; but I said 1 thought Adams was the fellow to consult. He was jawing away about watered copra and a right of foolery. ‘Look here,’ I said, ‘you are pretty sick. Would you ‘ike to see Goloshes?" He sat right up on his elbow. ‘Get the priest,’ says be, ‘get the priest; don't let me die here like a dog!“ He spoke kind of ferce and eager, but sensible encugh. There was nothing to say against thai. so we sent and asked Galuchet if he Would come. You bet he would. He Jumped in u dirty linen at the thought of it. But we had reckoned without Papa. He's a hari\-shell Baptist, is Papa; no Pa- Pista need apply. And he took and locke:| the door. Buncombe told him he was biyoted, and 1 thought he would have had ant. ‘Bigoted!’ he says. ‘Me bigoted? Have I lived to hear it from a jackanapes like you? An‘ he made for Buncombe, and I had to hold them se part; and there was Adams in the middie, cove lany again, and on about copre like a born fool.

Then I asked her about Adams and the priest, and she told me much the same yarn in her oon way. SothatI was left not much further on, but inclined, on the whole, to think the bottom of the matter was the row about the sacrament, and the poisoning only talk. was no business to be looked for. Uma asked meinthe morning if I was going to pray; 1 told her she bet not, and she stopped home herself with no more words. I thought this seemed unlike a native, and a native woman, and a woman that had clothes to show off. How- ever, it suited me to the ground, and I made the tess of it. The queer thing was that 1 came next doorto goingtochurch after all, a thing I’m little likely to forget. I had turned out fora stroll, and heard the hymn tuneup. Youknow howilitis, If you hear folk singing it seems to draw you, and pretty soon lfound myself alongside the church. It was a lnttle, long, low place, corral bullt, rounded off at both ends like a whaleboat, a big native roof on the top of it, windows without sashes, and doorways without doors. I stuck my head into one of the windows, andthe sight was so newto me—for things went quite different in the islands I was acquainted with —that I stayed and looked on. Ihe congre- gation sat on the flooron mats, the women on one side, the men on the other, all rigged out to kill—the women with dresses and trade hats, the men in white jackets and shirts. The hymn was over; the pastor, a big buck Kanaka, was in the pulpit preaching for his life, and by the way he wageged his hand and worked his voice and made his points and seemed to argue with the folk, I made out he was a gun at the business. Well, he looked up suddenly and caught my eye, and I give you my word he staggered in the pulpit; his eyes bulged out of his head, his hand rose and pointed at measif against his will, and the sermon stopped right there. It isn’t a fine thing to say for yourself, but Iran away;and, ifthe same kind ofa shock was given me, Ishould run away again to- morrow. To see the palavering Kanaka struck allofaheapatthe mere sight of me gave me a feeling as if the bottom had dropped out of the world. I went right home and stayed there and said nothing. You might think I would tell Uma, but that was against my system. You might have thought I would have gone over and consulted Case, but the truth was I was ashamed to speak of such a thing—I thought everyone would biurt out laughing in my face. 80 I held my tongue and thought: all the more and the more I thought the less I liked the business. By Monday night I got it clearly in my head I must be tabooed. A new store to stand open two days in a village and not a man or woman come to see the trade was past de- eving. Uma, sal 1, I think I’m tabooed. ‘*I think 30, sald she. I thought a while whether I should ask her more, but it's a bad idea to set natives up with a notion of consulting them, sol went to Case. It was dark and he was sitting alone, as he did mostly, smoking on the stairs. Case, said I, here's a queer thing. I'm ta booed. Oh, fudge!’’ says he. Tain't the prac- tice in these islands. That may be, or it mayn' t, said 1. It's the practice where I was before, You can bet I know what it’s like; and I tell you fora fact I’m tabooed.’’ @**Well,’’ said he, what have you been do- ing?’’ Arnat 's what I want to und out,“ said I. „Oh, you can’t be, said he, it ain't pos- sible. However. Tu ten you what I'll do. Just to put your mind at rest, I'll go round and find out for sure. Just you waltzin and talk to Papa.’’ Thank you,“ I said,**I’d rather stay right out here onthe veranda. Your house is so In call Papa out here, then,’’ says he. My dear fellow,“ I says, I wish you wouldn’t. The fact is I don’t take to mr.

He . uarte e ei a when be came | ones wore Catholic medals which gave me matter for refiection. Our place was set and mats laid for us over against these grandees, on the near side of the house; the midst was empty; the crowd, close at our backs, murmured and craned and jostled to look on, and the shadows of them tossed in front of us on the clean peb- bles of the floor. I was just a hair put out by Commons, but the sured me, all the more when their spokes- man began and made a long speech in a low tone of voice, sometimes waving his hand toward Case, sometimes toward me, and sometimes knocking with his knuckles on the mat. One thing was clear: there was no sign of anger in the chiefs. What's he deen saying?“ I asked, when he had done. On, just that they're glad to see you, and they understand by me you wish to make some some kind of complaint, and you’re to fire away, and they’ll do the square thing.

I’m a white man anda British subject,and no end ofa big chief at home, and I’ve come here to do them good and bring them civili- zation, and no sooner have I got my trade sorted out than they go and taboo me, and no one dare come near my place! Tell them I don’t mean to fly in the face of anything legal, and if what they want’s a present I’ll do what's fair. Idon’t blame any man look ing out for himself, tell them, for that’s hu- man nature; but if they think they're going tocomeany of their native ideas over me they’lifind themselves mistaken. And tell them plain that I demand the reason of this treatment as a white man and a British sub- ject. That was my speech. I know how to deal with Kanakas; give them plain sense and fair dealing, and I’ll do them that much justice— they Knuckle under every time. They haven’t any real government or any real law, that’s what you've got to knock into their heads; and even if they had it would be a good joke if itwastoapply toa white man. It would beastrange thing if we came all this way and couldn’t do what we pleased. The mere idea has always put my monkey up,and I rapped my speech out pretty big. Then Case translated it—or made believe to,gather—and the first chief replied, and then a second, and à third, all in the same style—easy and genteel, but solemn underneath, Once a question was put to Case, and he answered it, and all hands (both chiefs and commons) laughed out loud, and looked at me. Last of all, the puckered old fellow and the big young chief that spoke first started to put Case through a kind of catechism. sometimes I made out that Oase was trying to fence, and they stuck to him like hounds, and the sweat ran down his face, which was no very pleasant sight to me, andatsomeof his answers the crowd moaned and murmured, which was a worse hearing. It’s a cruel shame I knew no native, for (as I now believe) they were asking Oase about my marriage, and he must have hada tough job of it to clear his feet. But leave Case alone; he had the brains to run a parlia · ment.

RUDYAED KIPLING DESCRIBES HIS AR- RIVAL IN THE ORIENT. Written for the SunDay Post-DISPATCH. The mist was clearing of Yokohama harbor and a hundred unks fad their sails hoisted forthe morning breeze, so that the veiled horizon was stippled with square dlurs ot silver. An English man-of- war showed blue white on the haze, so new was the daylight, and all the water lay out as smooth as the inside of an oyster shell, Two children in blue and white, their tanned limbs pink in the fresh air, seulled, a marvelous boat of lemon-hued wood, that was our fairy craft, tothe shore across the stillness and the mother-o’- pear! levels. There are ways and ways of entering Japan. The best is to descend upon it from America and the Pacific—from the barbarians and the deep sea. Coming from the East, the blaze of India and the insolent tropical vegetation of Singapore dull the eye to halt: colors and little tones. It is at Bombay that the Smell of All Asia boards the ship miles off shore, and bolds the passenger’s nose till he is clear of Asiaagain. Thati« a violent, an aggressive smell, apt to prejudice the stranger, but kin none the less to the gentle and insinuating flavor that stale across the light airs of the daybreas Wass the fairy boat went to shore—a smeli of very clean new wood, split bamboos, smoke, damp earth and the things that peo- ple who are not white people eat—a homelike and comforting smell. Then followed on shore the sound of an Eastern tongue, that is beautiful or not, as you happen to know it. The Western races have many languages, but a crowd of Europeans heard through closed doors talk with the Western pitch and cadence. So it is withthe East. A line of jinrickshaw coolies sat in the sun discours- ing to each other, and it wasas though they were welcoming a return in speech that the listener must know as wellas English. They talked and they talked, but the ghost of familiar words would not grow any clearer till presently the Smell came down the open streets again, saying that this was the East where nothing mat- ters, and triſles as old as the Tower of Babel mattered less than nothing, and that there were old acquaintances waiting at every corner beyond the township. Great is the Smell of the East. Rallways, telegraphs, docks and gunboats cannot banish it, and it will endure till the railways are dead. He who has not smelt that smell has not lived. Three years ago Yokohama was sufficiently Europeanized in its shops to suit the worst and wickedest taste. To-day it is still worse if you keep to the town limits. Ten steps beyond into the fields all the civilization stops exactly as it does in another land a few thousand miles further West. The globe- trotting millionaires anxious to spend money, with a nose on whatever caught their libertine fancies, had explained to us aboard ship that they came to Japan in haste, ad- vised by their guide books to do 80, lest the land should be suddenly civilized between steamer-salling and steamer-sallng. When they touched land they ran away tothe curio shops to buy things which are prepared for them—mauve and magenta and blue vitriol things. By this time they have a Murray under one arm and anelectric blue eagle, withacopperas beak anda yellow E Pluribus Unum’’ embroid- ered on apple- green silk, under the other. We, being wise, sit in a garden that Is not ours, but belongs toa gentleman in slate- colored silk, who, solely for the sake of the picture,condescenuds to work asa gardener,in which employ he is sweeping delicately a welt of fallen cherry blossoms from under an aza- lea aching to burstinto bloom. Steep stone steps of the color that nature ripens through long winters, lead up to this garden by way of clumpsof bamboo grass. You see the Smell was right when it talked of meeting old friends. Half a dozen blue-black pines are standing akimbo against a real sky—not a fog blur nor a cloud bank, nor a gray dishclout wrapped around the sun, but a blue sky. A cherry tree on a slope below them throws up awaveof blossom that breaks all creamy white against their feet, and a clump of willows trail their palest green shoots in front of all. The sun sends for an ambassador through the azalea Dushes a lordly swallow-tailed butter- y and his squire, very like the flitting ‘‘chalk blue’’ of the English down. The warmth of the East, that goes through, not over, the lazy body, is added to the light of the East the splendid lavish light that clears but does not bewllderthe eye. Then the new leaves of the spring wink like fat emeralds and the loaded branches of cherry-bioom grow trans- parent and glow as a band glows held up against fame. Little, warm sighs come up from the moist, warm ‘earth, and the fallen petals stir on the ground, turn over and go to sleep again. Outside, be- yond the foliage, where the sunlight lies on the slate - colored roofs, the ridged rice fields beyond the roofs, and the hils beyond the rice fields, is all Japan—only all Japan; and thisthat they callthe old French Legation is the Garden of Eden that most naturally dropped down here after the fall. For some small hint ofthe beauties to be shown later there is the roof of a temple,ridged and fluted with dark tiles, flung out casually beyond the corner of the bluff on which the garden stands. Any other curve of the eaves would not have consorted with the sweep of the pine branches; therefore this curve was made, and being made, was perfect. The congregation of the globe trotters are in the hotel, scuffling for guides, in order thatthey may be shown the sights of Japan, which is all one sight. They must go to Tokio; they must go to Nikko; they must surely see all that is to be seen, and then write home to their barbarian fam- ilies that they are getting used to the sight of bare brown legs. Before this day is ended they willall, thank goodness, have splitting headaches and burnt-out eyes. It is better to lie still and hear the grass grow to soak in the heat and the smell and the sounds and the sights that come unasked. Our garden overhangs the harbor, and by pushing aside one branch we look down upon a heavy -sterned fishing boat, the straw-guld mats of the deckhouse pushed back to show the perfect order and propriety of the house- keeping that is going forward. The father sher, sitting frog fashion, is poking at a tiny box full ot charcoal, and the light white ash is blown back into the face of a largish Jap- anese doll, price 2s 8d in Bayswater. The doll wakes, turns into a Japanese baby some- thing more valuable than money could buy— a baby witha shaven bead and aimless legs. It crawlstothe thing in the polished brown box, is picked up just as it is ready to eat live coals and set down behind a thwart, where it drums upon a bucket, addressing the frebox from afar. Half a dozen cherry biossoms slide off a bough and waver down tothe water close to the Japanese doll, na in an- other minute will Overside pursuit these miracieg, The fa ther-fisher bas it by the pink hind leg, and this time it ig tucked away, all but the top- knot, out of sight among umber nets and sepla cordage.

Now when Jack is soft- ened with drink he does not tell lies. This is his grievance, and he says that them blank eted consuls ought to know.

He moves not only among fascinating scenes and a lovely people, but, as he is sure to find out before he has been a day ashore, between stormy questions. Three years ago there were no questions that were not going to be settled offhand in a blaze of paper lanterns. The Constitution was new. It had a gray pale cover, with a chrysanthemum at the back, anda Japanese editor told me then: Now we have Constitution same as other countries, and so it is allright. Now we are quite civilized because of Constitution. A perfectly irrelevant story comes to mind here, Do you know that in Madeira once they had a revolution which lasted just long enough for the national poet to composea national anthem, and then was put down? All that is left of the revolt now is the song that you hear on the twangling nachettes, the baby banjos, of a moonlight night under tne banana fronds at the back of Funchal.

The many ladies in St. Louls who have guided their taste for charitable work to- ward children’s homes and hospitals will be pleased to hear that the little ones have not been forgotten by the ladies who areat the head of the woman's departments in the World’s Fair. A building for the children has beena feature of every recent expos!- tion, and because a similar structure had not been provided for,the Board of Lady Managers applied for space to erectachildren’s home, adjoining the Women’s Building. The per- mission was granted, but with the condition that the money for the purpose be secured in sixty days. tavorable responses were re- ceived from every State and Territory to the letters issued by the Ladies’ Board, and the Children’s Home will be one of the several institutionsin Jackson Park erected for the rand the needy amid riches and opulence. ‘he building will cost about $20,000, and $10,000 will be expended in the equipment of the 8.

The reason why women : do not take upthe scientific study of elec- tricity in greater numbers inste of re- stricting themselves tothe mechanical part is said by Mrs. Randolph tobe the severe strain which D imposes upon women.

Mr. Taltavall gives a romantic touch tothe early days of the lady telegraph student. He finds for her a charm in the thought that she is conversing with another operator hun- dreds and even thousands of miles away. He estimates the number of women tele phers in this country at 87,000and states at few of them who hold the highest positions are college bred,’’ that’ is, taught the art elsewhere than in a telegraph office. Several hundred small ris are employed in the great main offices of New York about common office work.

Randolph said that womenare beginning to receive the 1 executive positions whose duty it is to see that matter is properly sent and not unnecessarily delayed.

Why do you go to Mrs. Blank's house?“ said to me once a very excellent woman, who had always borne a spotiess reputation. „She has been so talked about I wonder what you find in her to attract you. Just what I do not find in you—charity for other women,’’ I replied, My friend looked somewhat non-plussed, but soon hastened to reply: She has more reason to be charitable and lepient than 1. Her past needs the mantle of charity thrown overit, and mine does not; there is nothing in my life that would not bear the light.’’ There is a narrow fissure of severe judg- ment in your heart that needs the light of love and sympathy thrown into it, I re- sponded. ‘*‘‘When I encounter such a hope- lessly good woman as you, who never met temptation, I can understand why a tempted Christ is symbolized by religion as man’s judge. He will show mercy; having been human, he understands human weakness.’’ Yet, as a rule, I have not found it to be the spotlessly good women whoare the se- vere judges of weaker sisters—qulte the con- trary, Innumerable instances occur to me as I think on the subject, in which the purest and sweetest of women have in my hearing de- fended somò victim of gossip, made excuses for her weakness, and refused to believe the stories afloat about her until forced to do so, while in almost every instance, these stories were set afloat by some woman whose own past had not been free from reproach. It seems a remarkable fact that a woman who bas ever been the object of scandal should wish to repeat or spread any unkind reports about another woman, but such cases are too numerous in all our experiences to need verification. This is an age of progress and freedom for woman. Theday of the ‘‘Scariet Letter’’ has passed with its endless martyrdom for the erring. Public sentiment has become 60 liberalized, and the world so busy with scientific dis- covery and the growth of thought in all directions, that a woman who has committed some early error or folly is allowed in time to make amends, redeem her ways, behave her- self and occupy a respectable position among cultivated and agreeable people, who do not bother themselves to study up her past life. We have but to investigate our so-called highest circles, to und instances of women who have lived down early errors sufficiently to be among the leaders of fashion. In our intellectual circles we find shining lights who have bullt noble names over the skeletons of old scandals. The world is beginning to al- low women to reform and correct early mis- takes as well as men. But the ever-increasing wonder in my mind is that these are the women Who frequently unearth the skeletons of scandals from be- ve cau and effectional endowment, and I rejoiced to think that she had been able to live it down. She was a devoted wife, a kind friend and an active worker in all good causes, and I respected her for having climbed on the lau- der of her esto her present position. hat was my shocked surprise to hear that woman 7 Op peg — Sheaves a youn st upon dellevin me ph 7 eich nad been set afloat by idle ues.

In her traveling satchel she carries a small toilet case that can be hung above the washstand in her state-room, a small medicine case and enough changes of underwear to render her tolerably independent of laundresses. In addition to these things there are a pair of easy. dainty slippers and a silk neglige to be worn in one’s room after somewhat tiresome sight-seeing.

The housekeeper who takes pride inher well-stocked cellar has a busy time of it dur- ing the fruit season. The season’’ means to her long hours spent iu the hot kitchen, great kettles of boiling sugar, which must be stirred, heaping dishes of fruit, wooden spoons, scales, funnels anda long line of giass jars. The gingham apronis donned and preserving begins. There area few general principles upon which good preserving rests. To start with, the fruit must be ripe butfirm. To make the syrup allow one-fourth pound of sugar to one pound of fruit, adding water enough to dis- solve. With many fruits it is well to use the juice of the fruit with the sugar instead of water. When it is necessary to have the syrup very clear it should be clarified with the white of an egg. A good clarified syrup is made with two quarts of sugar and one quart of water. The whites of two beaten eggs should be stirred into this and it should be kept at the boiling point. After about half an hour white scum willappear onthe surface. Ihis should be removed, and the syrup will be found per- fectly clear. For preserving glass jars with glass covers are the best touse. They should both be hot when the fruit is pouredin. Each jar should be carefully and distinctly labeled and the rubber bands put on tight and firm. The pre- serves should kept carefully from the air and ina dry place. TO PRESERVE STRAWBERRIES .—USe the juice ef currants; to every pint of currant liquor add one pound of struwberries and the weight of both in sugar. Let the sugar dis- solve, then boil it with the currant juice, skim well, then put in the Strawberries. Let them boil about a quarter of an Lour, then pour with the syrup into jars. To PRESBRVE STRAWBERRIES WHOLE.—TO one pound of picked strawberries add three- uarters of a pound of pounded Jump sugar. Lay part of it upon the fruit and let it remain until the next day. Put the remainder of the sugar and a pint ofcurrant juiceto every pound of strawberries into a preserving pan and boil to a_syrup. Add the strawberries and simmer very gently till the fruit is soft, being careful not to break it. Now take out the strawberries and boll the syrup until it appears to be rich. Wait until it is cold and then put it upon the frult. 40 PRESERVE CHERKIES.—Sour cherries are the bestto use. Wash them and take out the pits. Prepare the sugar in a Kettle with water enough to melt it: Allow one-fourth ot a pound of sugar toevery pound of fruit; when the syrup Is hot put in the cherries and cook five minutes. Have jars ready and fil. To PRESERVE PINEAPPLE.—Select mellow ones, peel and cut in slices. To six unds of fruit use two anda half pounds of sugar and three pints of water. Let the sugar and waterc together. When it boils skim,add the fruit and cook ten minutes. To PRE@ERVE RuUBARB.—ToO one and one- fourth nds of rhubarb add one pound of sugar, one-half ounce Of bitter almonds, blanched and chopped very fine; one - half the mon, aiso chopped very fine.

An important feature in wedding decora- tions, but one with which the decorators un- fortunately have nothing to do, is the dress- ing of the wedding guests. Have you ever been to church weddings where the floral decorations passed unnoticed because the 3 r 3 eo aa LA OOD For Another Wedding Guest. whole body of the building seemed to be the rosebud garden of girls,’’ of which the bride, by courtesy, was always the queen rose? That is the effect beloved of fathers and mothers and brides and bridegrooms and so far as you contribute to it you will be held in grateful recollection. To say nothing of the fact that you probably have a weakness yourself for being becomingly gowned. For an evening wedding of course you wear an evening dress or a handsome reception Zephyr and Lace. costume. Yourlocks do not have to be cov- ered with a coquettish hat, your gown will do if it is passably fresh and flower-decked,. But when your complexion and your dress are subjected to the nodonday glare you must be more careful. The hat must have just the requisite degree of brim to cast a becoming shadow over the eyes, there must be har- mony between the tints of complexion and the gown, and altogether the matter is one for serious consideration. A pretty gown fora noon wedding is of yel- lowish crepon. The skirt is demi-trained and trimmed around the bottom with a deep flounce and heading. Belowthis heading are three rows of narrow Velvet with bows placed N with a full rial. Rows ofthe narro are placed on the bodice the and front. 1 .

The New Capotes, Neopolitan Straws and English Walking Hats. Written for the SUNDAY PostT-DISPATCH. ’ Some of the latest things in summer hats rare really works of art. There are three, suitable for garden parties, class-day exer- cises and the like, that attracted a good deal of attention last week. One was of white point d’esprit net shirred on a small, white wire frame of a low sailor shape. The brim was lined with point d’esprit lace and a big, pale blue bow concealed a good deal of the crown. Another was a plain white silk mull. A Dainty Hat. It was gathered on a crown and brim of ordl- nary dimensions, which were then trimmed at the very edge ofthe brim and the lower part ofthe crown with pale pink roses. A second veiling of the silk mull covered the whole, giving a particularly delicate effect to the trimming. The third was composed of white tulle and white lilacs. Lilacs, by the way, are used a great deal this spring in hat decorations. 4 little capotte composed almost entirely of them is illustrated here. The skeleton frame is lined with Brussels net and the brim edged with narrow folds of black velvet. The crown is composed of white and pale purple Ulaes. There is a high standing bow of cream white The SUk Mull Hat. ribbon drawn over the crown to the back, where it ends in streamers. A pretty hat is one with an open crown of lace-edged black Neapolitan braid, the brim having three volutes at the front and a box- plaitatthe back. It is trimmed on the right _ Side with a bow of pink watered ribbon, the bow holding a half-garland of pink crushed roses, which pass around the left side. A small, tiaht bow of ribbon with streamers trims the back. A shade hat, big and bent enough to give a coquettish appearance to any face,is of white Leghorn, It is dented in three places in front, and is trimmed with a big bow of white rib- bon and a wreath of lvy leaves. ‘*The **Robitailie’’ is another one of the capote shapes which are very pretty.

Unfortunately, there were days when the four bare walls would chase each other round and round, and the candle seem a faint speck of light, a very long way oft, and the frequency of these caused the family income Yor the week to occasionally fall somewhat low. One night the walls danced round quicker and quicker till they danced away altogether, and the candle shot up through the ceiling and became a star, and the woman knew that it was time to put away her sewing and crawl on to the mattre$s and wait.

He found the money and buried his mother; and then, putting his household goods ona barrow, moved into cheaper apartments—half an old shed, for which he paid 2 shillings a week. For eighteen months he and the baby lived there. He left the child at a nursery every morning, fetching it away each evening on his return from work, and for that he paid fourpence a day, which included a limited supply of milk. How he managed to keep himself and more than half keep the child on the remaining two shillings I cannot say. I only know that he did it, and that not a soul ever helped him or knew that there was help wanted. Henursed the child, often pacing the room with it for hours, washed it occa- sionally and took it out for an airing every Sunday. Notwithstanding all which care, the little beggar at the end of the time above men- tioned, ‘*pegged out, to use Jimmy’s own words. The Coroner was very severe on Jim.

Jim became quite a hero, I remember. Kind-hearted people wrote urg- ing that somebody—the ground landlord or the Government or somebody of that sort— ought todo something for him. And every- body abused the local vestry. I really think that some benefitto Jim might have come out of it all if only the excitement had lasted a little longer. Unfortunately, however, just at its height a spicy divorce case cropped up and Jim wascrowded out and forgotten. I told the boys this story of mine, after Jephson had done telling his, and when I had finished we found it was nearly 1 o’clock.

THEY WILL BE COMPLETED WITHIN A YEZEAR—PROGRESS OF THE WORK. Unless the present calculations are upset by obstacles not now visible, the waterworks extension will bein full operation one year hence. Water Commissioner Holman and his assistant engineers are pushingthe contrac- tors and are doing all they can to pre- vent delays. The work of extending the pumping station from Bissell’s Point to the Chain of Rocks has been under way for nearly foury ears and an immense amount of work has been completed. Most of this work has been done on the conduit which Connects the new pumping station with the reservoirs and stand-pipes atthe present works. The work was let out in sections to prominent city contractors andthe most rigid inspec- tion rules were enforced to secure prime work. As matters stand now all but sections E and Fare completed on the conduit and the bulk of the work is now confined to the engine pits, settling basins and gate house. Thetunnel and inlet tower are practically finished, and as soon as the bal- ance of the work is done the gates of the tower will be thrown open to admit the vol- umes of water that will supply the city in the future, The tunnel was one of the most dificult and costly features of the extension. The tunnel is over 1,600 feet in length and runs through solid rock under the bed of the river from the shore to the center of the channel. In the center where the current is the swi t is the inlet tower. The towerisa massive piece of granite and iron resting on the solid rock bottom of the river far below the mass of sand and mud. In building the tower thousands of dollars were expended alone on the coffer dams and the health of the engineers, inspectors and workmen was seriously impaired by their service under the bed of the big river. The tunnel which is to convey the water to the basins is pronounced a magnificent piece of work and will, the engineers say, lastacentury. Theconduit which ts to carry the water supply frdm the Chain to Bissel’s Point is built on immense foundations of con- crete, and in some marshy places piles were driven twenty-five and thirty feet in the ground. The walls and arches are built of hard brick, with Portland cement and sand as tbe mortar, The engineers claim that no amount of pressure from the flow of water can in any way weaken the strength of the conduit. Water Commissioner Holman is at present absent from the city but one of nis principal assistants remarked yesterday that the con- tractors would be through before June 1, 1898, and that the new works would then be in full operation.

New Books—Glimpses of New Ergland Life in tt Portreite’’—An Exocel- lent Exposition of the Theory of Nat- ural Selection. A series of lectures delivered at the Uni- versity of Edinburgh by Mr. George J. Ro- manesis the source of that eminent nat- uralist’s work entitled Darwin and After Darwin,’’ being an exposition of the Dar- winian theory anda discussion of post-Dar- wWinlan questions. The work, when com- pieted, will be in three volumes. The first will deal with the purely historical side of biological science, and will not be issued for sometime. The second, which is a state- ment of the Darwinian theory, is just pub- lished, and will be followed shortly with the third, dealing with the important questions of heredity, utility, isolation, etc., and will contain a discussion of Weisman’s theories. The present volume is all that could be asked by one desiring a thorough, and at the the same time a comprehensive view of the pure Darwinian theory. Although written for popular use, it requires study and thought. Mr. Komanes aims to popularize his subject, but he assumes some knowledge in his reader. Mr. Romanes 18 not a dogmatic Darwinian, although he is a strenuous defender of the theory of natural selection. His method 1s rigor- ously scientific and logical. He does not fear specuiation although of course in this work he curbs the disposition to form hypotheses. In the first part the evidences of evolution as a fact are considered. In the second the method of evolution is discussed in the light of the work of Darwin and Wallace. This work may be accepted asan authorita- tive exposition of Darwinism, and will rank with Mr, Wallace’s recent book as a thorough discussion of the subject. With the volume to follow the reader will be in possession of the last word of biological science. [Darwin and After Darwin; The Darwin- fan Theory. By George John Romanes.

EVPPOSED DISCOVERY OF THE HOUSE OF COLUMBUS’ PREDECESSOR. Written for the SUNDAY PostT-DISPATCH. Prof. E. N. Horsford of Cambridge claims to have discovered traces of the site of the house set up by Lief Erikson in the year 1000. It is near Gerry’s Landing, on the Charles River. The larger part of the foundation of the house lies inthe ancient highway leading to the river bank and is now covered with grass. The professor says the outlines are in dan- ger of obliteration, and asks permission to erect at his own expense an iron fence around the spot. Within 100 feet of the hospital is a circular depression in the ground. Back of this was a ridge of considerable length, which was, ac- cording to Prof. Horsford’s theory, where the log house stood. It is this spot that he pro poses to inclose. The Saga say that Lief’s house wasata point where the river ran from southeast to northwest. This is the only point where it does so. Walking up from the river one comes toa depression in the hillside where a hut once stood, one corner of which still shows the re- mains ofa chimney. There isalsoa mound on the land, the top of which is hollow. This. according to the professor, is either a mound with the top caved in or the site of a tower such as the Norsemen used to construct. Cer- tainly it ig artificial. Terraces are still distinguishable. on the slope ofthe hill. Behind these are depres- sions, as though huts once stood there. ERIK THE RED. Lief Erikson was the son of Erik the Red, a chief under the famous Norwegian King, Olaf Tryggvesson, whose career is portrayed in Longfellow’s Saga of King Olaf. In con- sequence of having cOmmitted a murder in Norway in 982 Erik the Red ned with his son Lief to Iceland. Here the old Viking spirit broke out in full force; with his long ship, rowed by his companions in arms, the round, red shields ranged along the bulwarks, the adventurous mariner penetrated tothe coast of Greenland, and pushed his ships through the floes, ice packs and bergs of what is now known as Davis Straits. He gave to the newly discovered country the name of Greenland. Here Erik established a colony, introduced Christianity, and sent his son Lief home to Norway to ob. tain the services of missionaries. THE VOYAGE OF LIEF. This much is certain: The later history of Lief, the son of Erik the Red, is largely a matter of conjecture, the principal guide being the Saga of Snono Sturleson. According to the accounts that have come down to the present day, shortly after Lief’s return from Norway and Iceland a sailor named Bjorn, who was one of Erik’s crew, was blown westward from Greenland by a gale. He finally reached the coast of a coun- try to the southwest, but was unable to land. On making his way back to Greenland he told his tale to Erik, and that indefatigable ex- plorer at once fitted out a fleet, the command of which he bestowed upon his son Lief. Lief pushed southeast, and on his first voyage found an inhospitable shore, which he named Helluland and which has since been identified as Nova Scotia. Obliged to return to Greenland for supplies, Lief soon started again, and in the year 999 or 1000 touched the coast of what is now the United States. Where his point oflanding was has been a hotly disputed question. One theory is that the adventurous Scandinavian landed on the coast of Maine. Others place his point of landing in Massachusetts, at Newport, near New York, or as far south as New Jersey. Relics sup- posed to be of Norse origin have been found at allthese points. The Massa- chusetts theory has always been the favor- ite, although the old stone tower at New- port, the origin of which has never been ex- plained, has inclined many to advocate that location. To the new country Lief gave the name of Vinland, the land of the vine, one of his crew having brought back tothe shipa bunch of grapes, which he had found when engaged in a foraging trip. How long the Norwegians remained on the coast is un- known. Some maintain that a colony was founded; others that a mere coasting trip was undertaken, and that the discovery was never followed up. Some years ago a society of Scandinavians desired to erect a statue to Lief Erikson at Boston. The historical so- ciety of that place discouraged the plan on the ground that the voyage was ofa myth- ical nature. Certain it is that tales and songs of Vinland the Good’’ were heard at Ice- landic firesides nearly 500 years before the voyage of Columbus. The discovery of Prof. Horsford will, it is hoped, go far toward set- tling this disputed point. An Event of Importance.

Special Correspondence SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. Tacoma, Wash., June 24.—A cow that gives beer instead of milk is one ofthe attractions of the Puyallup Valley, in the State of Wash- ington, about twelve miles from Tacoma. Puyallup is the hop-growing section of this State. The valley is in Pierce County and it has none but the richest and most fertile soil within its boundaries. Its hops have become famous throughout the country, and in addi- tion to its fine hops, Puyallup boasts of the ugliest race of Indians that Uncle Sam has to care for. The beer-giving cow Is exciting the wonder of the farmers in that section, and it has begunto attract considerable attention among physicians and veterinary surgeons. This singular freak of natureis an ordinary- looking milch cow, which in general appear- ance resembles her score or more associates on the green fields a short distance from the town of Puyallup. The animal brewery, as the beast has been aptly termed by her owner, is the property of James Thomas DeNabb, an upright and God-fearing citizen. Mr. DeNabb was one of the earliest settlers in Stuck Valley, which runs northward from Puyallup, between the cities of Tacoma and Seattle. He moved to his present ranch between Sumner and Puyal- lup a few years ago. Last fall Mr. DeNabb purchased twelve cows from a farmer in Walla Walla. Heturned them into the flelds adjoining his ranch, and beyond Posy sy | himself that they were as good as he ha been led to expect by their former owner, he paid no attention to them. The ranch owned by Mr. beNabb comprises about one hundred and twenty-five acres of very rich land. Hehad thirty acres of it in hops last year, which, in addition to netting him a neat sum of money, gave him the remarkable ani- mal to obtain which Phineas T. Barnum and old Adam Forepaugh would have been willing to cut each other’s throat. Late in the month of September last when the hop pickers were at work, the Siwash In- dians whom DeNabb had in his employ would occasionally throw a handful of t beer producer towards the cows which frequently strayed near the hop fields. The cow which is now yielding beer showed a love forthe hops, which soon attracthd at- tention among the Stwashes. Before the hop-picking season was over the cow would visit the hop fleld and the Indians would feed her generously on hops. It was not long be- fore the beast began walking through flelds of grass without eating any of it or showing any desire for it. During the winter and up to the present time the cow has eaten nothing but hops, and Mr. DeNabb gets all the beer that he cares for without purchasing it in the same manner that his neighbors are oom pelled to pursue. found that cow was giving beer instead of milk last February,’’ said the farmer the other day, inexplaining how he discovered the peculiar nature of his property. ‘‘I had noticed for several days inthat month that my milk had-a singular flavor, and I could not account for it. I first thought that some of the children in the neighborhood had been 2 something into the milk cans, and so watched them. I stored thecans away in the nouse and kept a watch on thechildren that came around here, but the taste which I had first observed still remained with the milk. I then supposedthat the children had out- witted me, and I placed the cans in the parior of my farm-house over yonder and then locked the door so that no one could get at them during the day while they were not in use. This was on Feb. 26 last. I devoted the entire day to * that no one went near the cans, and the following morning I and my men milked the cows and put the milk from each cow in a separate can. „We found the milk ali right until we reached the can in which the milk from the little browny had been placed.

One of the farm hands informed me that the cow never ate anything but hops, and I jumped to the conclusion that, the hops were 1 of the objectionable taste in the milk. After that I got interested and gave orders thatthe cow should get nothing but hops to eat so long as she preferred them to hay, and each day I milked her myself and after- wards made an examination of the milk.

Sore throat is the cause of more than half the trouble that comes from contagious diseases. The germs of these maladies such as scarlet fever, diphtheria, mumps, measles, small- pox and the like float in the air. They can be taken into the human system without danger, if they do not find an abraded surface. If they do, they enter the blood and swarm in millions. Itis well known that diphtheria can be taken froma wound on the skin on the body. It is par- ticularly noticeable that when such a malady as diphtheria rages it always attacks people after they have caught a slight cold. When you take cold, therefore, and your throat is sore get a bottle of REID’S GERMAN COUGH & KIDNEY CURE at once and take it freeiy. If your druggist will not order it for you write to us.

Garfield, little thinking that he was himself to furnish another of those strange coincidences. As John Adams was dying he murmured feebly, ‘*‘And Thomas Jefferson still sur- vives’’ and Jefferson on that same day, realizing that death was near, was at peace because his wish had been gratified, and he had been permitted to survive until the anniversary of the immortal event whose deciaration he had penned. General, how many Presidents have died upon the Fourth of July?’’ said Gen. Garfield to Postmaster-General James on that anni- versary in 1681, **Three, Mr. President,’’ was Gen. James’ reply, with difficulty mastering his emotion, for he feared that perhaps before the sun had set upon that day a fourth would be added to the list. Garfleld, racked with pain, looked with pathos in his glance into the eyes of his Postmaster General for a moment, and then closed his owh, as though in resignation to the dread which there he saw expressed. The strange coincidence hat Jefferson and Adams should have both passed away upon the fiftieth anniversary ofthe day when in- money he was compelled to sell his library to Congress, and even that sum of $20,000 did not long stay the disaster. In his extremity he appealed to the State of Virginia fora charter foralottery in which his estate at Monticello wasto be the prize. Thus har- assed this noble and conspicuous figure of the revolution passed the evening of his days, and those who were with him at the end have said that it seemed as though the hope that he might live untilthe fiftieth Fourth of July and then be taken away was the only measure of comfort which he had in this last year of his life. THE ANNOUNCEMENT. The ist of August had come before the people of the United States knew that Jeffer- son and Adams had passed away upon this semi-centennial anniversary. The an- nouncement produced a profound and solemn impression. It was regarded as an unmis- takable sign of Providential interfererc>. * — — — — — — — — and his age were serlous obstacles to profes- sional success. Not even his prestige as an ex- President served to bring him clients, He Uved with his son-in-law, who was post- master of New York, and who, through mis- management or for some other reason, went under a financial cloud. He was even accused of financial improprieties. The ex- President lived the life of a recluse in New York, his proud spirit humiliated by the embarrassments of poverty and by the sorrows which came to his family. Many citizens of New York were not aware thatthe ex-President had taken up his residence in that city, and the first intimation that they had thai he had been living among them was the announcement of his death. He died on the Fourth of July, 1831, after a short illness. He, too, knowing that his end was near, prayed that he might survive until the na- tion’s anniversary, and he seemed content when on the atternoon of that day they told whereon were posted frequent bulletins, and after reading them turned away smiling sadly and saylng. Thank God, he still lives.’’ Inthe early forenoon, members of the Cabinet called and sawtheir chief for a a moment, and it was then the President said to Gen. James, How many Presidents have died upon the Fourth of July?’’ When the evening came and the doctors Dulletined their hopeful message that the President had passed tue second crisis well, the city gave way toa strange, subdued, silent yet mightily impressive demonstration of joy. JOHNNY’S FOURTH. I Johnny had a lot of crackers, Mig and round and painted red; GLORIOUS FOURTH. SKY-ROCKETS, ROMAN CANDLES AND BOMBS LOADED FOR THE FOURTH, Written for the SUNDAY Post-DispatcrH. This ts the season of the year when the American eagle, glorious bird of freedom, alighting on the topmost summit of the Rocky Mountains, spreads its wings until one dips in the Atlantic Ocean and the other is lavedin the waters of the Golden Gate. Then the eagle—may he lve forever—lets out a scream that echoes from Portland, Me., to New Orleans and back again to Portland, Ore. This is the season of the year when a nation burns incense and gunpowder to the memories of its forefathers, and orators spring up at every cross-road to extol the virtues of Washington, Adams, Jefferson and their bewigged associates who dulled the horn of the British unicorn and dlunted the teeth of the lion. Now the small boy, in excess of patriotic frenzy, gives his fingers as free will offerings on the altar of Independence, and the usually sober and thrifty citizen spends his last¢cent on fre- crackers and fireworks, which he touches off to honor the shades of the founders of this country, land of the free, homeof the brave. And when the small boy and his father and his big brother start out this year to buy fre- works they will find some mighty ingenious and beautiful things provided for them. There are the Chinese Mandarin firecrackers, none of your ordinary, plain firecrackers, but such as the noblemen of the Flowery Kingdom burn when they give a fete or on crackers looks like a 10,000,000-legged conti - pede—is that a Wull? It should be tied up along an iron fence and then setafire at the tall, for it has a head. The effect at night is brilliant and surprising. The smaller crack- ers go off like the rattle of an army’s rifles and the big ones come in, Boom! Boom! like the detonation of heavy artillery. An infinity of sparks dance in complicated fig- ures through the smoky air until the head of this fery serpentis reached. The head is a cube of about fourinches, filled with powder and vari-colored fires. It bursts withan awful noise and with gorgeous effect. These 40,000 Mandarin crackers cost $25. There are some new and beautiful Roman candles. One is called the Changing Star. It sends out one star at a time, which, pa- triotically, displays the American colors by changing from red to white and from white to blue without dividing. The ‘‘Changing Star’’ candles that sand out ten balls are worth $adozen. Then there is the Must cal Star’’ Roman candle that emits a sound above the stzzing and the fizzling of its fires, and the ‘‘Electric star“ candles, which are dazzlingly bright, for they are full of mag- nesium. A dozen of the big ‘‘Electric Star’’ candles cost $7.50. It is astonishing how much money in the shape of fireworks one can send up into the . 2 ,,, S , | , 2 , . ,, ,, . — — * 5 : J a 0 — ,, * FC T -T REFRAIN. And there's a name that’s often spoke.

The instrument is carefully preserved in the State Department at Washington. While Jefferson was the writer and the for- Mulator of this instrument, Adams was the arator who defended it and pleaded for it Defore the Congress. Thus these two men, mere than any other of the great men ofthe revolutionary times, were identified with this the most powerful written instrument since Magna Charta. After Adams retired from the Presidency, not even waiting, itis said, to receive with courtesy his successor, Jefferson,he returned to his home at Quincy, his career. as he be- lieved, being finished. He was then 65 years ofage, and as he passed from the youth of old age to the maturity of It he took great joy not only in watching the development of the country and in criticising the policy of the Republicans, as Jefferson’s party was then called, but especially was he «ratified in the promise which his sohn was then giving of continuing the influ- ence ofthe Adams name. Mr. Adams, un- like Jefferson, was possessed of sufficient wealth to be able to live in comfort. He foresaw that his son might attain to the Presidency, and he earnestly prayed that he might live long enough to see another Ad- ams President. When, therefore, in 1825, John Quincy Adams became the Pres!- dent, twenty-four years atter his father’s relinguishment of the office, the ven- erable patriot declared that he was quite ready at any time for the summons which would take him from earth. During the following year Ar. Adams, feeling the in- firmities ot age and Knowing that he could not long survive, became possessed of one earnest desire. He hoped that he would be spared long enough to see the sun dawn upon the fiftieth anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, The hope Was realized, and it seemed as though, being thus gratified, this great intellect of the revolution cared not to live throughout the day. He expired during the forenoon,almost his last words being: And Thomas Jefferson still sur- vives.’’ THE DEATH OF JEFFERSON, Jefferson did survive, but only for a few hours, for he was then dying. He, too, for some months previous tothis semi-centen- nial anniversary had been filled with desire to close his eyes forever upon that day. It seemed at times as though life could not be contained in his frailbody as long as that. But when the morning of the Fourth of July, 1826, dawned there came to Jefferson’s coun- tenance a look of serenity and exquisite joy, and at that moment he began to yield his hold on life and ceased breathing a few rs later. Neither of these great men had ught of this possible impressive double cidence of that day, nor did the country know of it until some days after, for commu- tion was slow. If the deaths ofthese two men had 6olemn and pathetic suggestion by reason ot this strange association with the immortal part they took in building a mew republic, a double pathos is added by the story of Jefferson's closing „ He was harassed by poverty. His fame was of such fascination that thousands attracted to his home at Monticello, om he received with the characteristic pitality of his State. Sometimes the man- was a vansary—its sixty beds being N by self-lnvited guests, the slaves 2 these people and n’s farm being taxed for the provis- He endured this with — — * R pesk.on which the 6 Declaration of Independence WAS ritten. (SOME JEFFERSON Preparations were made everywhere for memorial services. The spirit of 1776 was stirred anew, andthestory of that day of birth and of the services of these two men upon that epoch-making occasion was re- peated till every man and every child knew it as they knew the stories of the Scriptures. Kdward Everett, then in the first flush of his fame as an orator, was invited to deliver a eulogy at Cambridge, and Chancellor Kent at New York. But the nation looked to one man—Daniel Webster—as the sufficient eulo- gist of these men and the adequate commen- tator upon the strange significance of their deaths upon this commemofative day. Web- ster was chosen to deitver the eulogy in Bos- ton, and when the nation heard of this the people said: It ig wen!“ Webster’s evlogy has become historic. It is one of the greatest Speeches of this orator. It is oné of the Américan classics.. Webster was mightily impressed by the colncidence of these double deaths, and as he had been a close student of the careers of Adams and Jefferson, and knew much of the secret mo- tives as well as the public ones which in- spired them when they acted in uhion and when afterwards they were separated on national policies,he was ins plred as he had been on only one ion before and three or four times afterward. He had a magnifi- cent audience and a part of lis eulogy has been made familia r to every schoolboy in the land. That part begins with the words ‘Sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish,’ Prob- ably nine out of ten of those who) have spoken those lines or who now recall them are of opinion that it was part of an oration delivered by John Adams on the Occasion when the Declaration of Independence was laid before Congress. That, however, is not the truth, The words are those of Webster, and not of Adams; the orator made use of them to t what Adams might have said while thus speaking. The diction, the thought, the peculiar mental mannerism were so suggestive of John Adams that the quotation was then and has been since quite generally accepted as an extract from one of bis speeches. — 7 THE DRATH OF JAMES MONROE, years after the deaths of Adams and James Monroe, after his retirement fro wentto New York City to another ex-President passed away. | prehens — that he had but a few moments more to ive. Mr. Monroe was’buried ina little cemetery in the heart of New York and there his re- mains rested practically unmarked and un- honored for nearly twenty years. At last in response toa sentiment created in Virginia the remains were removed and taken by the steamship Ericsson to Richmond, where they were interred in the Hollywood Cemetery, and there a very plain shaft marks their final resting place, SOME OTHER COINCIDENCES. Chief Justice Marshall, who did more, per- haps, than any other person of his time to give permanence and explanation and ju- dicial determination to the constitution, and who had served as Chief Justice for thirty- fiVe years, lay upon his deathbed on July 4, 1835. Those about him thought he would ex- pire on that day, and he would have been content to have itso. He lingered, however, breathing his last upon the morning of July 6. President Zachary Taylor was smitten with mortal disease upon July 4, 1950. Upon that day the corner-stone of the Washington monument was laid, andthe President took chief part in the ceremonies. Exposed with bare head to the glare of a Washington mia- summer sun, he was somewhat overcome by the heat. Returning to the White House in that condition he ate with imprudence, and that night took to bed, which he never left. A tew days later President Taylor passed away. ' GARFIELD’S LAST FOURTH OF JULY. On the morning of the Fourth of July, 1881, Gen. Garfield asked the attendant to push the curtain aside a little so that he might look out upon the day. The physicians had been with him all sight, pere with himthen. The anxious family were in adjoining rooms in dread ofa summons which might call them to the bedside of the dying President. The physicians watched with keenest eye each symptom. They were fearful of a secondary „ and if that came Garfield would 5 pass away. The streets of Washington were hushed. It was a morning of sadness and not of com- ij memofrative joy. The gloom of the tomb seemed to settle upon the capital. People waised hitherand thither with silent, ap- ive tread, as though fearful that their footsteps might make disturbing noise.

An authority on the sudject calculated yesterday that $1,500,000 worth of fireworks alone were im- ported into the United States each year. Three-quarters of them are used on the Fourth of July and thereabouts, the other quarter pop and bang and raise the mischief in the southern States during the Christmas holidays and around Mardi Gras time.
