Only one was taken off and that was the body of Thomas Welden, who was accidentally shot during the scuffle with one of the mill workers’ guns, who was trying to take his Winchester. He died while being taken off. Burgess McLuckie was seen and said if | there were any bodies on the boat they must surely have been purned, but he doesnot think there were any dead men on the boat at the time of the surrender. They were tak- en away by the Little Bill. Some of the peo- ple say there are at least two Pinkerton men at the bottom ofthe river. Wm. Foy, who was shot through the left side during the first skirmish, cannot live through the day. Joseph Zsibo died at the South Side Hospital. TOLLING BELLS. The funeral knell tolied this afternoon and three of the victims of yesterday’s riot were laid in their graves. Many joined in the saa and impressive exercises andthe comrades of the men who died shed tears over the fate of their brothers. There) are three freshly filled graves that contain the remains of John Morris, Silas Wein and Peter Fares. The funeral of the latter took place from the Methodist Ohurch &t 2:30 o’clock. The church was crowded and the local lodges of the Knights of the Pythiasand the I, 0. O. F., of which the deceased was a member, The interment was in a cemetery pet 9 oftown. That of Wain lip and nose- the plant yesterday. One committeeman said. ‘*We intend to protect the plant, and this is shown by our action in insisting upon the watchmen to return to their re- spective posts. We guarantee them ample protection and propose to keep our word.’’ Now that the direful results of the sacrifice of human life have been realized by the men, the effect is looked at in a serious light. CARNEGIE’S ULTIMATUM, THE HOMESTEAD WILL HENCEFORTH-BE A NON- UNION MILL. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 7.—Secretary Lovejoy of the Carnegie Steel Co. said this afternoon: ‘*The Amalgamated people who committed these overt acts will probably find them- selves in a very bad hole, for when the proper time arrives a number of them will be arrested on a charge of murder, and I need scarcely say there will be no lackof evi- dence. It will be overwhelming. I think that the national officers of the Amalga- mated Association have a heavy burden of responsibility to bear in this case, for timely action and prudent counsel on their part would in my opinion have gone far towards preventing this trouble. ‘*This outbreak settled one matter forever, and thatis that the Homestead mill here- after will be run by non-union men and our company will never again recognize the Amalgamated Association or any other labor organization. The Homestead trouble will doubtless also have the effect of influencing other mills heretofore union to become non-union and thus free themselves from dictation of labor unions. I also con- sider that this riot by the accedited members ofthe Amalgamated Association will be its death blow. It will certainly go far to aleniate the sympathy and good wishes of the best people inthe community. The report that Mr. Frick is guarded by detectives is not true. There is no necessity whatever for such precaution, as nobody is coming to Pittsburg to commit any overt act.’’ SHERIFF M’CLEARY POWERLESS. THE PEOPLE OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY REFUSE TO SERVE AS DEPUTIES. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 7.—Sheriff McCleary, in addition to his proclamation of last even- ing calling on all good citizens to appear armed at his office this morning, sent outa number of personal summons to the same effect early to-day. Notwithstanding this, however, when the Sherif? was ready at 9 o’clock to receive volunteers there were very fewonhand. Butone man not personally summoned was on the ground, and no others have reinforced this one. Of the 105 men legally called upon, but twelve responded. As it was apparent that a force large enough forany practical purpose.could not be gathered in this manner to-day, Sheriff McCleary decided to postpone his trip to Homestead until to-morrow. On announc- ing this decision he said: ‘*We will not go to Homestead to-day ag it is impossible for usto geta We will take the name and address o come here and will be read to-morrow. to-day and I expect to have a larger force to- morrow. There is much reluctance on the part of many here to go to Homestead, where a would be expected by every. deputy.

All day yesterday and this morning rumors were flying that the Pinkerton detectives had been swornin as deputy sheriffs, and that they were under command of ex-She Jo- seph H. Gray. When told of the report that he had sworn in all the Pinkerton detectives, as deputy sheriffs, he denounced the story as being utterly without foundation, ‘‘I went up om the boat as a representative of Sheriff McCleary to note how the boat would be re- ceived,’’ he gaid, ‘‘and report to him,’’ ‘ ‘Well, how were you received?” . **Rather warmly, I should sa Sheriff McCleary, it is stated, se denies the statement given out on the’ ousoeaty J Carnegie officials last rening Se Gray, or ‘‘the Sheriff’s chi r+ eahe, & for fear, wat few not t them expec geta hole skins: The afta mgt en-* us just as determined in our position as ever; have | As soon as the committee had oa the | tts His experience ae.

The situation was becoming very serious when Burgess. McGluckie appeared in the ayoftherink. After commanding the crowd to fall back he said: _PRLLOw Citigens—lI call on you and each of you to in an orderly manner. We will not permit an rther unlawful demonstrations.

SENT TO NEW YORK, Pitrssurec, Pa., July 7.—The five car loads of Pinkerton detectives who came to Pitts- barg from Homestead duringthe night were sentto New York by specialtrain on the Pennisylvania Railroad at 10 o’clock this morning. After the last lot of injured, twenty-five in number, had been taken to the West Pennsylvania Hospital,* the re- mainder lay under the Seventeenth street in- cline securely quartered in their ‘cars with curtains tightly drawn, At9:30a. m. an en- gine and express car steamed up to Twenty- eighth street, where provisions for the Pink- ertons were obtained. They were fed after the special train left the yards. The men inside the cars presented a sorry sight with their bandaged heads and arms. Nothing could exceed their impatience to get away, and they were crazy for paper® to get an idea of the situation at Homestead. ‘*Why can’t we get out of this?’’ said one Pinkerton man as he poked his head out ofa window. *‘*Will we never get away?’’ The expression Was only one of many Said John Matthews, of New York, who_was amongthe party: ‘‘I never want to go back to Homestead and I hope we may get out of Pittsburg soon. No description could fit our condition inside the barges. It Wasa verit- able hell. 1 taid on my back for hours in momentary fear of getting a bullet through my head. We expected to be killed if we had to stay inside untilnight. The abuse we goton the street was the most inhuman I ever experienced or witnessed, and I have been a detective for twenty years.’’ A number of city detectives were in the vi- cinity of the cars all morning, not to make any arrest of the Pinkertons, but as Supt. O’ Mara said, to see thatno one interfered withthem. The ratiway officials dented any knowledge of wherethe prisoners would be taken, but that their destination is New York is certain. FACING CERTAIN DEATH. THRILLING STORIES TOLD BY SOME OF,THE CAP- TURED PINKERTONS. HOMESTEAD, Pa., July 7.—Among those res- cued from the barges was a tall, smooth- faced young man named Atkinson, who gave this account of his experience as a Pinkerton detective: ‘*‘My home is in New York City. lama member of one of the leading military com- panies there. Being out of work I answered an advertisement for Watchmen. I was told that I would be paid $15a week and boarded free ofcos:. I accepted the place. When I got to the train I found nearly a hundred men who had also been engaged as private watch- men. We weretold that we were to gotoa little country town, but nothing was said ofa strike. We were led to believe that we were to have an easy time of it. None of us knew where we were going. | ‘*We were taken to Buffalo,’Rochester, Erie, Youngstown, Ohio, and finally put off the train at Pittsburg, but we had no idea where we were. Wewere marched to the barges which were soon started up the river, towed by two steamers, We had not proceeded far when the boats came to astop and we heard firing. Then it was that we were handed guns and told that we must fight for our lives. This was the first intimation that we had of the character of the work for which we bad been engaged. Many ofthe men re- Yused to obey the orders to use the guns. Not a few made a rush for the steamers, but found that they hadcut loose and that there ’ Wasno possibile chance of escape from the trap. all night long we were ina state of terror and, when day came, and we saw the armed and determined-looking men on the river banks and heard the roarof the cannon and saw men bieeding and dyingall around us our feelings can better be imagined than de- sertbed. There were about fifty trained Pink- erton menon the barges who seemed to be doing alithe firing. With blanched faces strong men plea‘ied with those in comman torunupafiagof true, but they would not listen to it. ‘*When we found that the fight was to con- tinue, many of those on board thfew down their arms and hid beneath cots, mattresses, ete.

They went over the side of the boat farthest from shore, and could not be seen by the men in the mill yard. The pleading of some of thé older men, who said they had families, was enough to move the hardest heart. but it was not until those in command saw that to remain on the boats until after nightfall meant sure death that they agreed to the de- mands of the men and sent out word that they were ready to surrender, **As a member of a military company I have seen sham battles, and have had some retty — experiences, but that was ail eather-ved soldiery “ee ee with whatlI Have gone through uring the past day and night.

We came here to accept places as bates og watchmen, the racing season aving closed, throwing us out of work. When we arrived here in the boats and heard the shooting we realized what a box we had placed ourselvesin. Fully 75 per cent of the men had been deceived, and they demanded of the leaders that all firing from the t cease, and that a flagoftruce berumfup. I was selected as spokesman, but when I went tothe Captain and told him what the men wanted he turned upon me with a terrible curse and said: ***You’ll — ar die, You cant’t get out of here alive unless you fight your way out.’ ‘When I repeated this to the men they were very indignant. It was then suggested that the ropes be cutand we let the el ge float down the river. The Captain learned of this and he would not permit it to_ be done, saying he would kill the frst man who attempted to cut the ropes. All day long we pleaded with those in command, butin vain. Finally when we saw prepara- tions were being made to burn the barges we decided toact P gpa sy eb About fifty o us got together and we resolved to make a final plea for deliverance from our awfal sition and if we were refused to throw the eaders, about ten in number, overboard and take things in our own hands. ‘*When we made this demand the command- er saw that we were very much in earnest and they agreed to surrender. The way we were brought here, caged like so many rats inatrap and then deserted, was the most cruel plece of work lever heard of. It was barbarous. Many of the men had valises and trunks filled with clothing. Ali this has been destroyed. Weare without money and far from home, and had it not been for the mer- ciful action ofthe leaders of the workmen here I do not know what would have become ofus. We have not had anything to eat since yesterday evening. ‘*The men who misrepresented matters to usjand afterward left us to die do not deserve to be callea men; they are cowards. They deliberately cut off our only means of escape when they took the steamers away from the barges.. The men who are locked out of the milis and who are fighting for their rights are far more honorable than the wretches who so cruelly deceived us. In the crowd on the boats were ten ortwelve Pink- erton menin uniform, but what became of them when we surrendered I do not know. They must have escaped forI do not see one ofthem here. Idonot know how they got away. ‘*‘Yes, I am satisfied that several men drowned themselves when they saw the boats were to be burned.’’ A gentleman who boarded the barges im- mediately after the surrender found a num- ber of letters and postal cards written by the deputies, when they thought they could not possibly escape. Some of these missives were written by husbands to their wives and were couched in the most tender terms. f THE BATTLEFIELD. HOW IT LOOKED DURING ALULL IN YFSTER- DAY’S ENGAGEMENT. HOMESTEAD, Pa., July 7.—A reporter vis- ited the scene of the skirmish at 2:30 p. m. yesterday and remained for half an hour within the workmen’s lines. The Pittsburg, McKeesport & Youghiogheny tracks from Homestead to theriver bridge were thronged with curious people, either going to or com- ing from the scene. At the Homestead end of the bridge isa large platform, which of- fered a splendid view of the forces of work- men, but the boats containing the Pinker- tons were hidden from view as they went by the pumping station of the steel works. By walking out fifty feet on the bridge one could see the ends of the Pinkerton boats, but in taking this look he got within rifle .range and made himself a target fora Pin- kerton rifle. But many heeded not the warn- ings of those who understood the situation and walked out upon the bridge to get a look at the boat and some of them were chased back by whistling bullets. , Directly in under the bridge and behind a large piece of iron were seated sharpshoot- ers, who waited with cocked guns for one of the intruders to make himself a target. Occasionally he would geta shot, and with deliberation he would aim and pull the trig- ger. Butthere was nothingto indicate that the bullet had taken effect. By dodging be- hind several objects the visitor was enabled to'‘get inside the workmen’s fortifications without exposing himself within rifle range. Once inside, a scene was presented which would make a veteran feel youns and want to take a band in theconfiict. Two or three hundred men were inside the steel-works yards, congregated about an open-hearth furnace. Behind a pile of steel beams were seated the sharpshooters, armed with shot- guns, rifies, muskets, revolvers and shooting irons of every description. They were so located that they could get a gaod view of the enemy from behind their fortifications and fire at them without exposing them- selves to view at any point. In fact there were few, ifany, shots returned from the boats, andthe firing was all done by the workmen. The canonading was kept up continually, but only smal. pieces of steel were used for missiles and the damage done was not noticeable. Thenit takes an expert gunner to train a small cannon accurately, although it may be at short range. But shortly after 29 o’clock a heavy charge was put into the cannon and when it was discharged the gun burst. Nobody was injured, although many were standing near by when it burst. But the gun was disabled permanently. After this the bombardment was kept up with guns and dynamite cartridges. These cartridges were prepared with a fuse which was lighted and then the cartridges were thrown over the bank toward the boats. Although they did not seem to work much damage, yet they made loud reports and certainly added to the error of the Pinkertons. One of the most significant moves being made at this time was the layine of a line of hose from a large tank tothe bank ofthe river. A reel of hose from the City Fire Department was obtained and allthe long and short pieces of hose that could be gathered upand spliced with pieces,of gas pipe were pressed into ser- vice. It was announced that the object was to throw oll upon the barges and then set fire tothem. It wasa horrible devi but the men, urged on by the remembrance of their fellow workmen who had been shot down in the morning, were determined, These pre- parations weré&Stillin progressat the time of the surrender. CONGRESSIONAL ACTION. THE HOUSE WILL INVESTIGATE THE CAUSB OF THE RIOT. WASHINGTON, D. 0., July 7;—The House Judiciary Committee to-day had under con- sideration the resolution introduced yester- day by Mr. Williams, of Massachusetts, call- ing for an investigation by the committee into the troubles at Homestead Pa., and promptly authorized Mr.Oates to re rt upon t favorably tothe House, The resolution is as follows: Whereas, Thé Pinkerton detective or private po- liee force to the number of several hundred is now engaged inan armed conflict at Homestead, Pa,, with the late employes of the ® n.

Mr. Palmer that the were in having expended in the pecular line of work the to insist of the spheegeeng nef re) ment and had a right to insist upon a reason- able compensation for their services. He maintained that at the time of theassault up- om them they were where they had a right to be and were on the ground which they had a right todefend. He urged that some adage ought tosolvethe problem; should sought and’ discovered. If capital was to be master and the people were to be reese, the country would be involved in an- archy. Mr, Voorhees made a fiery speech, in which he attributed labor difficaltiestothe Repub- lican policy of high protection; and ex- pressed regret that Carnegie himself had not been at the head ofthe Pinkerton squad in- stead of skulking at his castle in Scotiand. Mr. Hale replied to Mr. Voorhees, denying thatthe Republican party was responsible had a right their employ- that the credit of building up such industries as thoseat Homestead and Bethlehem was due to that party. Finally the resolutions were referred tothe Committee on Contin- gent Expenses. HARRISON READS THE NEWS. COEYMANS, N. Y., July 7.—When- the train bearing President Harrison and party, en route for the Adirondacks, stopped at Kingston last night, a telegram was sent to New York requesting that a summary of the situation at Homestead be telegraphed to the President, who was anxious to know the result of the davy’s con- flict. The request "was complied with, and when the train arrived here a dispatch giving the latest news was handed tothe President, who read it with apparent inter- est, and expressed his thanks for the in- formation. THE INVADING ARMY. HOW THE PINKERTON FORCES WERE RE- CRUITED AND TAKEN TO HOMESTEAD. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 7.—According to the Carnegie Steel Co.’s statement, made by the Secretary, there were 300 men on the two barges. Itis stated onthe way up the river to Homestead about one hundred and fifteen men were dropped off the boats, leaving about one hundred and elghty-fivVve men at Homestead. Almost the entire 300 men came from Chi- cago, New York and Philadelphia. They were hired some days ago by the agents of the Carnegie Steel Co., and brought to Pitts- burg over the Pennsylvania Rallroad and the Fort Wayne Railroad. The New York men are supposed to have arrived onthe Chicago limited,and to have been dropped off the train a few miles below Allegheny. At this point the New York men are supposed to have met those from Chicago, and together they boarded the barges and were started on their trip to Homestead. Some were picked up in Allegheny and Pittsburg. What became of the 115 whg were dropped off the barges and taken on board the Little Bill-to Pittsburg fs not known. It is stated that these 115 men refused t9% stay, and in- sisted on being taken back. NEARLY ALL FROM CHICAGO. CuiIcaeco, lll., July 7.—Nearly all of the Pinkertons on the barges that the steamer Little Biull towed down the Monongahela at daybreak yesterday morning were from Chi- cago, One hundred and twenty-five men in command of J. G. Hoffman, a clerk in the Pinkerton Agency, left this city Sunday night over the Pennsylvania road for Homestead. There weve about twenty-five regular Pinker- ton specials in the party. The others were men who are not in the employ of the agency except when an occasion like this demands they should sent out of town. These men were not ‘‘reguiars’’ and were notified to report at the Pinkerton Agency Sunday evening ready foratrip to Pennsylvania. In order to make as little demonstration as possible the men went tothe station in twos and threes and quietly boarded the fast ex- press for Pittsburg. So secretly was the de- parture made that even the raliroad em- ployes did not notice anything out of the ordinary. The train arrived in Pittsburg Monday morning and the men. were marched to the agency’s headquarters. Another carload of Pinkertons went from this city Monday night. Zhere were 150 or 200 Pinkerton men from the East at Pittsburg, but only a few of them were on the barges. It was reported last night that 200 more Pinkertons would leave for Pennsylvania to- day. It was given out to-day that a detail of Pinkerton recruits will leave for the East this afternoon at 3 o’clock under the command of Charles. Nordrum, late Ohier of the Worid’s Fair Police, The utmost secrecy fs preserved both by authorities and men of the Pinker- ton force, and William Pinkerton last night refused to answer any questions putto him. Nevertheless it is an assured fact that the men are going, and last night numbers of them were imbibing Dutch courage and boasting of their achievements to come in down-town saloons. The fact that Charles Nordrum, is the leader of the Chicago Pinkertons,emphasizes the type of men who are employed to carry out Mr. Carnegie’s ukase on his former em- loyes. Failing all other émployment he has ound a position to lils taste. FEDERAL JURISDICTION. LITTLE PROBABILITY THAT REGULAR TROOPS WILL BE CALLED OUT. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 7.~There has been some general discussion among officers as tothe policy of the Federal authorities takingahand-.in the matter of the great Homestead strike troubles and as to the plan of operations in thé eventof suchan emer- gency, butitisallin theform of individual speculation, and in no way official. Gen. Schofield says until the Governor of Pennsyl- vania certifies his inability to suppress the riot with the militia forces at his command, unless government property is in danger, in which event Federal troops would be brought without a request from the Governor, there can be no assistance from the Federal troops. Should the War Department receive official information thatthe rioters are imperiling navigation of a navigable stream, endanger- ing merchant shipping or interfering with the full and safe. use of the river by vessels the War Department would be prompt to act. This is a matter for the local army engineer toactupon, A word from him as to the necessity in Feopin open free and safe navi- doubtiess result in the prompt several companies of intantry anda battery of light artillery from New York igo go the scene of the trouble. It is suggeste sche cers that the National Government might interfere to suppress the riot on the ground that the rioters are inter- er with government property and w on which they were engaged.

THE SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE DE- ¢ CLINES ACTION, te The Bill’ Sent to the Senate as It Came . From the House of Representatives— Speculation as to the Effect of This Course—General Belisf That No Vote Wil Be Taken. “This afternoon the Senate Judiciary Com- took action on the Hatch anti-option ll. There have beena number of confer- @ncesofthe committee in connection with ft and it was believed that a majority and a minority report would be presented. Neither port came before the Senate. The follow- g telegram was received this morning: WASHINGTON, D. C., duly 7. Merchants’ Exchange: Benate committee could not agree on Hatch bill or Back witnos so the orginal bill will .be reported ck without recommendation for discussion and ndment on the floor. 5. W. Cops. When this news was received on the floor f the Exchange there was much specula- fon as to what effect the action of the mmittee would have. At first the w who favored the bill were jubdfi- ant, eving that such action would insure the passage of the bill by the Senate, pr at least would bring it to a vote. Soon, nowever,a contrary belief became prevalent, j~and it was predicted that the bill was to all intents and purposes dead as far as the pres- | nt session is concerned. A PARLIAMENTARY QURBSTION. The measure was taken up by the House of pessoa under out of its regular order and a ssed under a suspension of the rules, is, it Is stated, is “Wmpossible tn the Senate, where the rules fre never suspended. This point proved to be a surprise to most members of the Ex- ope a and few were familiar enough with the methods of the Senateto assert or con- tradict Web M. Samuels Whose many visits to Washington in the interest of the erchants’ Exchange pave rendered him familiar with the'course f legislative business, said: ‘‘I have no doubt hatever that the pointis well taken, The House often, by a majority vote, fuspends the rules, and takes up Any bill it chooses. without reference to its position on the calendar. Thisthe eng never does. That body always acts nder the rules, and a 0ObDill can be faken up out ofits order only by unan- jmous consent, More than that, the action of the committee in presenting the House bill without comment, favorable or unfavorable, puts it at the foot of the calendar. Itis out of the hands of the com- ittee, and cannot be presented by the hairman to the Senate. It must take its regular order, and cannot be brought to a Yote until all bills before it are disposed of.’’ CANNOT SUSPEND THE RULES.| Judge 8. C. Cleary, formerly of the Arizona Legisiature, said: ‘‘The enate never sus- pends the rules. Save by unanimous con- Bent no bill can be taken up except as provided in the rules. I are of the opinion that the failure of the committee to make a report favorable or pdverse to the bilitakes it outof the hands of the chairman of the committee, who can- not present it, but the bill must go tothe foot of the calendar.’’ If this view is the correct one it is univer- Bally admitted that the Hatch anti-option Dill is dead as far as the present session of concerned, as there is of reaching the end of the calendar. A report was received from Washington this morningto the effect that the Conference Committee cf the Senate and the House had agreed to recommend adjourn- ment on July 20. If this recommendation is adopted, the chances of the bill comingto a vote are regarded as too small tobe worthy of consideration. its accuracy.

Judge W. 8. Shirk, the M Pacific at- torney, who, being on the Republican ticket for Supreme Judge, has been at the St. Louis convention putting in a good word for Judge Sherwood among the delegates, was seen to- quarters when a Post-DisPaTcH reporté = / called on him, **It ls understood, Judge, that you object to an interview pectisned este dad **Yes, I do—a little. So far as the interview quote what I said , ’m with Sherwood men, I’m for Sherwood, and I’m for Thomas, when I’m with the Thomas men,’ is Mable to be misunderstood. I do not mean to convey the idea that I was ore with Captotty. that I was trying t0 proselyte delegates from rying m one candidate to another. ” **Ri here, I want to say, that the charge made tI have Mm age accepted the de- featofthe Republican ticket as a foregone conclusion’ is all bosh. I expect that Judge Edwards, Mr. Nagel and I will beat all three of the nominees named by the Demo- cratic convehtion yesterday. **With regard to the mention made of my name editorially, I am averse asa rule to, talking for publication, but I think in justice to myself and to the legal department of the Missouri Pacific Railway Oo. I should say this’ much: No officer or employe of the railway company ever suggested to me to seek or accept the nomination for Judge of the Supreme Court, nor did I ever ask their consent or advice on that subject, nor do I know how they feel aboutit. I have a strong belief, however, that if I had asked their advice about the matter, I would have been advised not ¢o accept it, and I have but little doubt, if they care anything at all about it, but they would be very well satis- fled if I withdrew from the race. «**But asan attorney of the Missouri Pacific Ratiway Co.. I only owe to it, as to other clients, my loyal and faithful services asa lawyer. My political opinions and opinions upon economic and other matters are strictly my own. I have never been asked to do any - thing contrary to my convictions. To the contrary, my known opinions and my politi- cal and personal affiliations have always been respected. **I must, therefore, characterize it as posi- tively and emphatically false, that I was nominated on theRepublican ticket at the dic- tation of the Missouri Pacific Railway Co., and the corresponding intimation that was nominated to insure the road ane ermined attorney on the Supreme Bench, is an _ insinuation against my character and integrity asa man and as a lawyer, that I do not care to answer now. **The truth is, that like all liberal minded men, I strongly sympathize with the laboring and have no prejudices in favor corporations, ah any man who supposes that I would gO uponthe Supreme benchias the ‘ermined attorney’ of any corporation, man or set of men, knows but littleof my character and history. **I trust if you see fit to'publish anything I have said, that you will put the right con- struction upon it, and this, I believe, is alll have to say.’’ SUICIDES.

Messrs. Willlam M. and Andrew Anderson, composing the well-known building firm of Anderson Bros., have decided to test before the Supreme Court of the State the right of the School Board to award contracts for amounts over $100 to any bidder that suits their fancy, whether he may be the lowest | or the highest. Anderson Bros. intend to learn for the benefit of themselves and the entire building trade whether the lowest bidder has not some claims upon the award. The proceedings will be brought at an early day, butthe firm have not drawn in detail their plan of action, owing tothe absence of Mr. William M. Anderson at El Paso, Tex., where he has been for some time supervising the erection of a government building. He starts for St. Louis to-day, and on his arrival preparations for the filing of the suit will be made. It will be an _ act- ion for damages, probably fixed at $15,000, against the School Board for their award of the contract ofthe new High Sthool to James H. Keefe. Anderson Bros. submitted a bid, based upon the revised plans, for $196, - 965. Keefe made a higher offer, but came within the $200,000 limit and got the award, Anderson Bros. hurriedly tried to preventa consummation of* the award as soon as they learned that the Building Committee had recommended Keefe. By their counsel they appeared before Judge Withrow several monthsago, about4 o’clockin the afternoon and asked fo@a writto restrain the board from making the award. Judge Withrow was averse to makinga decision becaus¢ he had not looked up the law on the point, Dut finally he said that Anderson Bros. had, adequate recourse at law against the board if the recommendation ofthe commit- tee was adopted, and he therefore, refused to grant an injunction. The board did exactly as it was expected to do, namely, to confirm the action ofthe committee, and Anderson Bros. promptly filed suit for $15,000 as the amount of damages to which they were en. titled on account of the unfair and illegal award of the board. The cage came up be- fore Judge Klein. The defense filed a Gemur- rer, which was sustained and the suit was thus thrown out of court. Mr. Andrew Anderson saidto-day: ‘‘We think that we are right. Oneeminent jurist, Judge Withrow, toldus that we had adequate recourse at luw, and another, Judge Klein, said that we had not. We shall therefore press the matter to a decssion by the Su- preme Court. We shallamend and strengthen our petition filed in the previous damage suit. We ma again met by a demurrer and defeate in the lower court, but we shallappéal tothe courtof final disposi- tion.’’ A strong port wili be madeon the wording of rule 70 of the School Board, which declares that all lettings over $100 shall be given to the lowest bidder. Principals and Teachers’ Examinations. The examination of the applicants for principals and first assistants’ positions in the public schools was continued to-day in the Assembly room ofthe board, under the supervision of the assistant superintendents.

It has been stated that the opposition of Mr. Eugene Van Ness to the retention of Mrs. T. E.

Mr. Vah Ness was seen to-day at the office of the Cooper Chemi- cal Co.,, of which he is President, No. 518 Elm street. He reiterated what he stated in his letter of protest to Mr. Bartholdt, that Mrs Riley’s assistant was able to fill the su- pervisor’s wager Mr. Van Ness acknowl- edged that he and Dr. Riley had a misunder- standing about three monthsago. Dr. R was in start the St. Louis Physicians’ Supply Oo, Competition between the firms has been somewhat spirited and marked with animus.

There ddes wot seem to be ahy good ground for holding either Judge McFAR- LAN# ot Jiidge BuRGEss responsible for the blunder the Judicial Convention perpe- trated in putting Judge SHERWOOD on the Supreme Court ticke# with them. Judge McFaRLANE joined in the ‘‘fellow- servant’’ decision from which Judge SHERWOOD dissented, and the probabili- ties are that no failroad votes went to either MCFARLANE or BURGESS, except under corffpulsion in It is understood , that PRimgsT, the foremost opefator of the rfilroad machine in this conyention, was ‘Fair to-day; in- ; creasing cloudiness and probable rain Friday; slight- the be | ' promoted from.the Wabash service to his | present position on the Missouri Pacific’s | political staff oh account of his success in "3 Gente ‘ forming the combination of weaker candi- —— | dates that nominated GANTT over BURGESS ‘at St. Joseph, and, doubtless, if he could have formed a combination to nominate three Sherwoods in this cohverntion, both BuRGEss and McFARLANEB would have been beaten. But either newspapers or voters may be too hasty in indorsing any part of the work of a judicial nominating convention in which the political attor- neys of the railroad combine were so nu- merous, so conspicuous and apparently so potent as they were in this one. It is better in such cases to reserve judgment for atime and wait for conclusive infor- mation. NOT FOR. SEERWOOD. Against the salaried railroad attorney as a party committeeman or boss of \delega- tions in the nominating conventions of either party—and especially in gonven- tions to nominate judges of high or low courts—the Post-DIsPATOH is enlisted for the war; for every campaign up to the close of the polls and forall sorties and skirmishes between elections. These mercenary conspjrators are the most adroit, active and potent corrupters of our politics, the ruthless foes of popu- lar rights and even-handed justice; and their sole mission in politics is to control or betray in the interest of their pluto- cratic masters any party they pretend to serve. After the most villainous contest they ever conducted in Missouri they succeeded in nominating Judge SHERWOOD by add- ing to the votes they controlled for him such votes as they could by threats obtajn from the ardent and scared supporters of the five other candidates, their aim being to tar all of the latter with the same stick. Judge SHERWOOD thus received a large number of votes that would have been cast against him in a straight contest between him and any one of the other candidates. He is there- fore the nominee, not of the Democratic voters of Missouri, but of the railroads that he has favored so signally on the bench, that provide so well for relatives, that furnish indorsers for his notes in bank and the cash to redeem them when they fall due. Atleast so reads the evidence thus far printed in the Post-DIsPATCH, and not one word of rebuttal, denial or explanation has yet been heard from his friends. Such a nomination cannot wipe out the record he has made asa railroad partisan on the bench, and it does not dispose of the grave charges made by Democratic papers as to his placing himself under im- proper obligations to the roads whose ap- peals crowd our Supreme Court docket. Even if these charges can be cleared up, the Post-DIsPATCH cannot support for Supreme Judge the author of the dissent- ing opinionin the ‘‘fellow-servant’’ de- cision, nor any candidate who indorses that opinion. We wouldas soon think of supporting Judge SHiIRK, who was placed atthe head of the Republican Supreme Court ticket by railroad influence to aid in the nomination and election of SHER- woob. oo STRIKE AT THE CAUSE. It is useless to attempt to strike a balance of wréng between the Carnegie Steel Co. and the workingmen at Homestead. The situation is all wrong because it represents an appeal.to violence to settle differences which should be adjusted by peaceable and legal methods, For the workingmen there are extenuating circumstances which cannot be urged in behalf of the Carnegie managers. The passionate outbreak of these * men arises from a deep feeling of resentment for what they regard asa great wrong. They feel themselves to be fighting for their homes and bread for themselves and their families. They were threatened by an alien and mercenary force paid to subdue them with the use of Winchesters for arich and powerful corporation, They repre- sented, in a manner, poverty and helpless- ness resisting the tyranny of wealth and power. While condemning their violence, there- tore, and insisting upon the vindication of law and the preservation of order in the particular case, wise citizens will consider the general cause and the proper means of correcting such ills. They will find it in the system which prevails under Republi- canrule. The Carnegie company are the beneficiaries of bpecialand discriminating legislation which ehables them to make enormous profits out of the people through a protective tariff but does not. compel them to share their profits with their workingmen. These special privileges have been obtained largely through repre- sentations that they will enable the com- oe = bis nes "ore : 3g ad : Tey 5s pi : compelled to pay the high prices for nec- essaries caused by the system. They find their employers, through the operations of the system, profiting by strikes and lock- outs which bring deeper misery to them. Is it any wonder that they writhe in re- sentment and under special aggravation fight for the privilege of earning a living? | When the wrong and violence have beeti put down at Homestead it is the duty of good citizenship to work and vote to put down the unjust systein which .is respon- sible for them. —_— ——. Isn’T it odd that the English people do not demand a force bill? There is. more intimidation at British elections than ever there wasin America, and yet they go on breaking heads with a naive joyousness which would plungean American politician of the Harrison stripe into unmitigated gloom. SALISBURY should send for LODGE and TOURGES. _— e— IF Vice-President MoRTON had been in the Senate when the free silver bill was under consideration President HARRISON would not now be having nervous chills over the prospect of his being compelled to pass upon the measure.

Some of the Republican organs may be tempted to argue against the movement un- dertaken by the women of this country in op- position to the increase of prices under the Mckinley act. Our advice to them is, ‘‘Don’t.’’ It is the universal testimony of the best qualified authorities on the fact that, while it is very unsatisfactory to get the worst of anargu- ment with women, itis much more unsatls- factory to.get best of it. Either way it is unsatisfactory. Those rash, impulsive editors who may be fémpted to oppose the Frances Cleveland Influence Clubs will wish they had not tried it. Tariff Picture, From the Indianapolis Sentinel. The American Stee] & Iron Trust, which ts protected by a prohibitory tariff, has decided to cut thie wages of its men about 50 per cent, making a reduction of, forexample, from $3 00 per day to $i 50 per day, and to produce this result has in- augurated a lockout which reduces wages from $1! 50 per day to 00000 per day. Exactly. From the Chicago Times. Announcement is made that fifteen pro- tected steel and iron concerns are to be ‘*consolidated’’ under the name of ‘‘The Carnegie Co., Limited,’’ with a capital of $25,000,000. The public must not be impatient for particulars. A local organ of high taxes says: ‘‘Noneofthe details of the transac- tion will be made public by the firm at pres- ent, and they will wait tiil the troubles at their works are settled before filing the pa- pers of record.’’ Exactly.

The Ewing Heirs Make an Unusual Ree quest—Cireuit Court News.

The sheriff by consent of all parties inter- ested was ordered yesterday to makea deed to the property. The counsel forthe heirs who appeared in court this morning, however, represented that the sale was made under unfavorable circumstances and that a better price—possibly $10,000 more— be realized for the property. Mr. Wade’s attorney maigtained that the precedent was a bad one and to set aside the sale would be to discredit such sales generally | that a buyer would hav@ no guar- antee title when purchasing under the Sheriff’s hammer, and that the sale had Deen properly advertised and all the requirements of the law had been met.

Mr. Meirs spoke for nearly an hour. His first point wasa comparison of English im- migration. The United States gets 67 per cent and we only get 15 per cent. And where English people will go, there their capital will go also. The United States to-day is paying $500,000 per day on English capital. Why not get some of the American capital here to develop our mines and timberland? The speaker compared the American bor- der cities oppdsite them and declared that the present difference fn favor of the Ameri- can cities would disappear under a coR- tinental union. Our towns and cities and farms, in fact, everything, would reap some ofthe good results from such astep. Mr. Meirs concluded by asserting that no human power could put down the men who had undertuken this great work for the welfare of the country. Mr. Meirs was much applauded by all the ladies and gentlemen, showing that he had many supporters. BRITISH ELECTIONS. PRESS COMMENT ON THE RESULTS—LIBERALS CONFIDEXT. J wwpon, July 7.—The Tory papers attribute the loss of seats in Davenport and Ports- mouth to the Government’s anxiety to con- sult the interests of the tax-payer and their refusal to increase dock yard wages. The Times says: ‘‘Weighed as well as cqunt- ed in the balance the Gladstone gains ao not amounttomuch. The appearance ofa Par- see in Parliament is almost a romantic event, and the experiment will be watched with at- tention none the less keen because it cannot in the nature of things be frequently repeat- ed. The most striking phenomenon on the Unionist side is the imposing Unionist vote in Birmingham. The Liberal Unionists would remain a power in the State even if they disappeared from the rest of the coun- try so long as Joseph Chamberlain is able to marshal such an imposing array. It is in every way desirable thata man with the in- fluence that John Burns has should havea seat in Parliament. We take the greatest pleasure in welcoming him. We imagine he will not prove a most submissive Gilad- stonian. Itis probable thatthe county vot- ing to-Gay will afford some surprises.’’ Commenting on the elections, and partic- ularly those of yesterday, the Standard (Con- servative) considers that the Liberal attack on London failed, whilst it will take many minor advantages to console them for Bir- mingham’s splendid demonstration. Mr. Burns is likely to proveathorn in the flesh of his allies. Unless the Liberals do much better than yesterday, their enterprise is doomed to-day for a failure. The Daily News, commenting on yesterday’s election, says: ‘*‘The more cheering progress made by the Liberals yesterday strengthens the inference in favor of the return of Mr. Gladstone by an adequate if not substantial majority.’”’ The Chronicle, again reminding the Liberal party that their losses are due to disregard ofthe claims of labor, calis the Battersea victory the prize result of the London eilec- tions. ‘‘Nothing equals it,’’ says the Chronicle,‘ ‘in significant social value. John Burns is the rremier elect of London.’”’ The Standard’s Rome telegram alleges that a secret order has gone forth from the Vat- ican enjoining the Irish Bishops to support Mr. Gladstone’s programme, At 3 o’clock this afternoon the returns ghow the election of 125 Conservatives, - 97 Liberals, 19 Liberal Unionists, 8 anti-Parnellites and 2 Parneliites. The firstelection returns received to-day were from the Kilkenny district, where Mr. T. Curran, anti-Parneilite, received 744 votes, against 640 cast for Mr. J. O’Connor, Patnell- ite. In the Newark division of Nottinghamshire Viscount Newark, Conservative, was re- turned without opposition. In Waterford City John E. Redmond, the Perneliite candi, flate, defeated Mr. Sheehy, anti-Parneilite, ya majority of 863; Parnellite loss 184, * .In the Northeast Division of Cork Wm. Brien. was returned without opposition. ‘Staffordshire—Burton Division—Sidney Ever- ‘shed, Liberal, unopposed. Cork County, ‘North Division, J. C. Flinn, anti-Parnellité, D. A. Thomas, Liberal, and Morgan, Liberal, by majorities of over 9,000. The election at Newcastle-on-Tyne (two »mem bers) resulted in the loss of one seat by.. he Liberals, who were represented in the contest by Mr. John Morley, Mr. Giladstone’s lieutenant and most ardent friend, and Mr. James Craig. The Conservatives were rep- \ resented by Alderman C, F. Hammond, who ' received the highest number of votes, his )} poll being 13,824. Mr. Morley came next, \ with 10,955, while Craig was defeated, re- ’ eefving only 10,084 votes. Hammond's ma- jority over Craig, 2,740, a Liberal loss. a | unopposed.

Hethinks, for instance, that American lard, butter,cheese, canned goods, cotton fabrics, timber and its manufactures should pay the Same duty as similar merchandise from other countries, while American beans, pork, cotton seed oll and mechanics’ tools, instead of being ad- mittéd free, as is the case under the reci procity agreement, should only be favored with a reduction of 2 per cent on the regular duty. The Inspector of Customs at this port agreed with the Director-General of Revenue in thinking that itis yet tooearly to forma definite opinion on the effects of the treaty, which, he beliéves, however, to be detrimen- tal to the interests of Brazil. CHOLERA’S SPREAD. NOVGOROD FAIR NOT ABANDONED—RESISTING SANITARY REGULATIONS. St. PETERSBURG, July 7.—Cholera continues to spread in trans-Caucasus, It has been .ecided not to postpone the Nijni-Novgoroda Fair. Officials have been sent there and to Moscow to consult members of the Exchange Committee about the disinfection of goods and other precautionary means. The Standard’s St. Petersburg dispatch says the sanitary commission has voted 16,000 rubles to establish a disinfecting room ineach ofthe four principal hospitals of thecity, and aleo 750 beds for cholera patients. The Chief of Police Department of the city re- cently demanded a vote of 100,000 rubles fromthe municipal authorities for Sanitary work. The money was refused by the city, and the work now falls on the Sanitary Board. FATAL FANATICTSM. VIENNA, July 7.—The 7agebdiait publishes the following: Halfithe population of Astraknan resisted the taking of sanitary measures. Crowds filled the streets, making a monstrous demonstration against official interference, asserting that the epidemic had disappeared on previous occasions without the taking of special measures. They regarded the plague As a visitation of providence. More than half the people in the streets were Orthodox Rus sians, many of whom paid severe penalties rather than execute the sanitary measures required. The port of Astrakhan is crowded with ships which are refused admission tothe Volga. — GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS, A POORLY PAID CLERK’S PART IN THE BORUP AFFAIR.

There are pairs of men who have been in daily communication with each other over the same telegraph wire for years, and who have never seen each other. Each is weil acquainted with theother’s temperament, his moods, his disposition, and his senti- ments. ‘Telegraph instruments and telile- graph wires are unfeeling and stolid-looking filings. Yet, through them a man t!s able to convey emotions of sorrow or joy almost as eg asthey may be expressed facially. ‘he fact is perfectly palpabie to the man at ohe end of the wire, while he is receiving dis- aye that the man who Is sending them is li or well, or—though the sendermay make use of no terms of friendliness or of swear words—that he is in good temper or bad. In their conversation teléwraphe:s use a system of abbreviations which enables them to say’considerabie more ifiA certain period of time than they otherwise could. It is not qhite ascompact asthe Phillips code, but answers their requirements very well.

Fusion in Kansas meansthe defeat of Re- publicanism in that State and possible elec tion of a Democratic President by the Lower House of Congress. Kansas Democrats say they have abandoned no princl- ple of their party in indorsing the People’s party nominees. The two State platforms are so similar that there scarely ground for division. They also ciaim that it is common sense politics to rout their ancient enemy in its stronghold, and that fusion in the present campaign means a lasting alliance against the common foe.

LITTLE Rock, Ark., July 7.—The Republican State Convention concluded its labors yester- Gay afternoon. Col. W. G. Whipple, the nominee of the party for Governor, is a grad- uate of Yale College. He was at one time Prosecuting Attorney of the Eastern District of Arkansas, and in such capacity was instru- mental in securing the indictment of Powell Clayton for making false election returns. It was the first time that Clayton was ever brought into court to answer to a criminal charge. iItwas natural, therefore, that the General should find it inconvenient to come to Little Rock and preside over the conven- tion which nominated Whipple. Judge Joann McClure made a speech during the afternoon, urging the inexpediency of nomi- mating a State ticket. He believed that the pene should allow the Democrats to ght among themselves afew years longer. James K. Barnes, Postmaster of Fort Smith, spoke in favor of nominating a State ticket. e declared that ifthe convention refused to _ a ticket in the field he would never again @ delegate toa Republican State Conven- tion.

Drs Moines, Io., July 7.—The Executive Committee of the State Temperance Alliance bas issued an address to the temperance people of the State, declaringthat the alli- ance must part company with the Republican party. The action of the recent State. convention of the Republican party, the address says, makes a change of relations necessary; action referred to is the tabling ofa resolution de- laring the party’s adherence to its former ition onthe prohibitory question. Com- Sint is also made because a prominent Anti- hibition Republican, A. B. Cummins, was chosen elector at-large by the largest vote of the convention. | ABANDONS DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE MEETING.

BLACKSNAKE AND RATTLER, The Constrictor Wins After a Desperate Battie on the Florida Sand. From the Florida Times-Union. A thrilling fight between a blacksnake and @ rattlesnake was witnessed on the Cum- mings Orange grove by a party of gentiemen from Daytona. For several weeks past a blacksnake about ten feet long has made its headquarters under an old crib on the grove, appearing occasionally, but never allowing himself to be killed. He was as large around as one’s wrist, andas flercea looking feilow as one would wish toencounter. The gentle- men were sitting under a large palmettotree, enjoying the pleasant afternoon, when they noticed a rattlesnake creep slowly and cautiously out from a brush heap and coil himself with head inthe air and eyes turned toward the party, as if to say, ‘‘iere I am.’’ One gentleman seized a club, but the other persuaded him to delay the attack and watch the reptile fora while and see what it would do. ‘they ghad a chance to size up the stranger, Which was about six feet longand ofa grayish striped color. In a few minutes the black snake was seen to appear from under thecrib, fifty feet distant, and move slow ly toward the rattlesnake. ‘‘Now fora fight,’’ said Mr. Bert Walker, and the party drew back to give the reptiles a full show. Noiselesslty came the huge black fellow, carrying his head highintheair and occasionally droppingit, apparently study- ing the ground around which he was to make the attack. It was plainly evident thatthe biack snake wanted to fight. When within twenty feet of the other creature he stopped, raised his head, and the rattlesnake saw him for the first time. The ground between them was clear,not a stick or a stone being noticed for many yards. The rattler raised his head and threw out his tongue and seemed to be prepared for an encounter. They really reminded one of a couple of desperate men just entering the arena forafighttothedeath. Presently the black champion started on acircle around his prey, getting nearer to the rattler every min- ute. The rattier never tock his eyes from the approaching enemy, and his-head going around reminded the lookers-on of the move- ment of acorkscrew. When within six feet of the rattler the black fellow flew around so fast that you could hardly tell what it was. It was like takinga stringtied toa stick and twirling it with all one’s might. Suddenly the two came togetherand immediately be- came entwined about each other,rolling over and overin the dust. This lasted for fully five minutes. Then there wasalull andthe black snake was seento have his adversary by the throat with his mouth. His body was twisted avout the rattler’s body and every few seconds he would give a squeeze that sent the rattler so much further toward his end. ° In ten minutes the black hero droppei the body of his victim, drew himself up, took one last look, andthen wound off into the brush. It wasa rare and remarkable scene and thoroughly enjoyed by allof the party. One of the gentlemen raised upthe dead rattler ona stick and found that he was terribly gashedand mangled. Like the boa con- strictor, the black snake does not bite, but crushes out the life of Its victim. Her Lack of Confidence. From the Pittsburg Post. The utter lack of confidence that woman has in man was illustrated ina Penn avenue cable car the other day. Alady boarded the car at Sixth street. **Let m3 of at Twenty-eighth please,’’ she said to the conductor. From Sixth to Twelfth streets she Was en- gaged in getting seated and paying her fare. **Don’t forget tolet me off at Twenty- eighth, will you?’’ she saidasthe conductor took her nickel, and he sald he wouldn't. At Twentieth street she collected her parcels and stared at the. conductor to re- mind him of his promise. At Twenty-first she dropped a package, which another passenger stepped on, then apologized.

Albert Tolsch, Struck in the Head bya | Stray Bullet. | Albert Tolsch, the l4-year-old boy who was struck by a bullet from Chief of Detectives Desmond’s revolver yesterday afternoon, lies in a precarious condition at his home, 1914 North Fourteenth street. A maddened heifer ran down Clark avenue abant 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon and backed up against the Four Courts opposite the office of the Po- lice Commissioners. Officer Hickman climbed intoa wagon twelve feet away and com- menced firingattheanimal. Other officers ran to the scene and also commenced firing. A deputy sheriff in a second-story window fired a couplé of shots, and Chief of Detec- tives Desmond opened a window of the Po- lice Commissioner’s office and fired two shots at the animal. A moment later Albert Tolsch, aged 15 years, who was standing opposite Bothman’s saloon, staggered and fell to the sidewalk with a stream of blood spurting from his forehead. - He was picked up at once and taken to the Dispensary, where was pronounced fatal. which had evidently the cow, had buried itself in his brain. He was removed to his home at 1914 North Fourteenth street. He was — on last night. Aman standing near Tolsch is said to have been struck in the cheek by a bDuliet, but left without his name being learned, and a bullet also passed through the hat of Julius Walker, a barber. Sam Wilson, a negro, while trying to catch the steer was gored through the right leg near the ankle. Tolsch fell just after one of Desmond’s shots, anda as the Chtef of Detectives was the only one firingatthat very moment it must have been one of the bullets from his weapon which hit the boy. Desmond took this view of it ani manfully stated that it must have been his shot. He immediately telephoned for physicians and wanted everything possible done for the boy. Everybody was excited when the shooting was goingon and Desmond fired at the request of the crowd who thought his position at the window would enable him to kill the heifer. It wasan unfortunate acci- dent, but one which could not well have been avoided. Desmond felt véry badly when he learned that.a boy had been shot. The heifer finally weakened by the bullet wounds received, zot down on its haunches and the officers fired more bullets into her and she fell over on her side. Then she was hit with an.ax on the head and her throat cut. Judge Normile and Mr. Bishop Clash. Judge Normile and Acting Circuit Attorney Bishop had a little tilt this morning over the disposition of Fred Hunter’s case of burg- lary and larceny. Mr. Bishop recommended that a plea of guilty to petit larceny be ac- cepted andthat the defe ndant be sentenced tothirty days in jail, Judge Normile said that be would accept the plea but that he would sentence the prisoner to the Work- house instead of the jail. Mr. Bishop objected and saidthat he would nolle pros the case. The two talked back at each other for some time, when Mr. Fauntleroy, the prisoner’s attorney, settled matters by agreeing to take a Work-house sentence for hisclient. Hun- ter was originally arrested and indicted with Louis Triber and Walter McNamara for breaking into the storehouse of the Union News Co. and stealing eighteen boxes of cigars, fifty books and a bunchof bananas. The case against McNamara was nolle pross’d, and on April 13 Triber was tried and acquitted, Hartridge Acquitted. Charles Hartridge, the manager of Oakes’ candy factory, who was arrested a couple of weeks ago for shooting at Arthur 8. Oakes, son of his employer, bad his preliminary ex- amination in the Court of Criminal Correc- tion to-day and was discharged on the evi- dence, Col, Dave Murphy, who was defend- ing Hartridge, had some words with Oakes while the latter was on the stand. Heclaimed that Oakes **‘went up like a cur behind Hart- and tried to hit him iin the and Oakes denied very emphatically that he had done partatng of the kind. Upon leaving the stand he madea step toward Col. Murphy and a collision be- tween the two seemed unavoidable, but they both changed their minds when the Deputy Sheriff pounded his gavel for order. The Husband Discharged. Louls Geitz was tried before Judge Clal- borne this morning for wife-abandonment, The testimony showed that he was a Dar- keeper and gave his wife $12 a month, and that his salary was only $15 a month; also that the reason he did not live at home was the refusal of his wife to live with him. When on the stand BMirs. Geitz was asked if she would take her husband back and she replied that she ‘‘would not live with a stealer.’’ The Judge then discharged the defendant, the latter promising to continue his wt pw serene to his wife for herself and chil- ren. The Grand-Jury Investigating Abuses. Chief Harrigan was before the Grand-jury for twoor three hours yesterday afternoon, the jury’s investigation into the mismanage- ment of public affairs at the Four Courts and City Hall having already begun: A score or more of policemen were before the Grand- jury to-day telling what they knew in regard to the disposition of cases in the police courts and the issue of permits from the Mayor’s office to mé@mbers of the ‘*‘push’’ ana their friends fined in the police courts. The Aguirre Cases Dismissed. The two cases against A. A.

NEw YorK, July 7.—The eleventh annual convention of the Christian Endeavor Society was calied to order at 2:30 p. m. to-day. The immense gathering listened to an address of welcome by Rev. Dr. Deems and a response by President Gates of Amherst. WELCOMED BY DR, DEEMS. FELLOW-ENDEAVORERS—To me has fallen the honor and pleasure of weicoming on behalf of the pastors of New York to the greatest city in the youngest nationality the largest besy of organized Christian workers in the world. Without affecta- tion or pretence, I can understand why this hon- orabie and pleasing duty should have been assigned tome. lam almost the peeres of the pastorate in New York, very few of my brethren having been pastors of the same church so long as I have. presumed, therefore, to know my colleagues. y¥y, the clergy of New York are learned, faithful, courageous, devoted ministers of the gos pei of the biessed God. Amongst them there is great independence of thinking, and they have re- peated divergence of opinion, but they feel that they are set for the protection and propagation of our most holy faith. In the hame of my beloved colleagues I extend to all representatives of the Y. P. 8. C. E. a welcome to New York, our New York and yours; a welcome to our churches and yours, a we/come to our homes. our homes and yours. As we have prayed for you while you were coming, so now we pray. that your sojourn in this city may be comfortable and edifying to youand an inumense benediction to us and our congregations. As I have spoken my deliberate opinion of the pas- tors of New York, s@ I may express my opinion of the institution represented by this magnificent as- semblage. From the beginning of its existence it has engaged my attention very closely. The very rapidity of its growth has sometimes made me afraid, butto-day lam permitted to give you a wel- come with the most unqualified heartiness, because I can truly say there isno management in America which seems to me to be less open to criticism than the management of the Y.P.8S.C.E. Thatit has had the blessing of God andthe good will of men and that it has supplied what has been called a **telt want’’~ has been demonstrated by the rapidity of the extension of its operation, the very recital of which almost takes away one’s breath. Eleven years ago there was one socicty; ten years ago there were two; nine years ago there were ro five years ago there were 2,314; to- day 18.500 societies are represented in the city of New York at the eleventh annual convention. Nine ae ago lremember that there were 2,870 mem- ers in the fifty-six societies; five years ago there were 140,000 members in the 2,314 societies; one year ago it was announced in Minneapolis that there were 1,000,000 members, and to that number have been added during the past year 100,000, and there are now 18,500 societies. ‘ I donot trace its growth to the form of the organ- ization but to the spirit of this society, which, more than any otherfound on earth in this nineteenth century. reminds one of Christ’s Christianity. The society does not depend tor its existence and growth as many ecclesiastical systems do upon the strength and compactness of its organization, but, as most growing things do, upon the internal life of its individual members. The binding element inthe Y. P. 8. C. E.is the pledge taken by each active member: To that pledge I have given close study. Ifit was not in- spired by the Holy Ghost, it is one of the most re- markable uninspired productions of tle human in- tellect. It combines faith and works asthe Holy Scripturesdo. Itisafterthe model of the psaimist: **Trust in the Lord and do good.’’ Itis after the model of the Apostie James: ‘‘Show me thy faith by thy works.’’ It teaches that a Christian life is one that works from the inner man to the outer; and this is what distinguishes Christianity irom all the other ethical cults in the world. The second part of the pledge is that which has made the Christian Endeavor Society a gymnasium of Christian activity. The active member promises to be at every prayer meeting of his society, and by speech, or prayer, or reading, there amongst his brethr*n of about the same age, all belonging to his own localchurch, to add something to tne interest of the meeting. It is because of the general fidelity with which this pledge has been kept that the evan- gelical churches @ America have during the past ten years becoine re interesting. more instructive, more protitable the community than during the fifty years which#mmediately preceded. lf the Y. P. KE. grows proportionately as it has since 1 e close of this century will find 8,000,000 ames upon its rolls. Now there might be 8,000,000 names onany roll which might stand for only the figure 8 and six ciphers, but let us re- member that onthe roll of the Y. P. 8 C. E. it stands for 8,000,000 of real things; and that each one of those real things is human; and that each of those human beings is young; and that those Christian young persons are ecgaged in constant conservative and aggressive work for real vital Christ-like Christianity regardiess of all scientific theology and all mere Mihsn 5 ecclesiasticism. During the life time of our young society the question of Christian union has attracted more inter- est than ever before since the Reformation. I do not attribute thisinterest to the existence of our rma oe although no yiolence would be done to arene ilities ifsuch a statement were made, but I © wish to call attention to the immense promotion of Christian unity by the increase of interdenomi- national intercourse which has been brought about by our societies. The ecclesiastical arene have all been cold, faulty, pragmatical and im racticable schemes, working from without, and binding people together with external cords. The work in this direction by the Y. P. 8, C. E. has been more ef- tective than all other things combined, because it has been spontaneous, without plan or purpose, une} worldly, spiritual and Christly- PRESIDENT,GATES’ RESPONSE. In response to the address Of welcome Mer- rill E. Gates, President of Amherst College, on behalf of the delegates, said in part: We accept your welcome most cordially.

We be- lieveinthe average people, who méan to ‘‘raise the average of intelligence and goodness. And these societies are emphatically ‘‘the people's societies.”"’ The movement is in the best sensea popular movement. Since the people under God are sovereign, a movement in whichall the good people are interested is a movement which deserves attention and promises results Buwstill farther, we have faith in the movement because it represents assoclated effort. Itisa young eople’s society. The Zeit-Geist, the Spirit of our ime, is for organized effort, for associated en- deavor. The life of this last quarter of the nine- teenth century is marked by strong associatin impulses, Organization is the watchword o the time. Labor organizes, trade or ganizes, capital organizes, Selfish interests organize. Unselfish interests, too, must organize. Never before in the history of the world has man seen so truly the meaning of the solidarity of the race, The longing for associated effort,for affiliated life. is felt around the whole globe like avast force of gravitation moving all men toward their fellow man. » The spirit of the living God lays hold on this tendency of the time, lifts it up, sanciifies it, and we have the Young Men’s Christian Association, the Inter-collegiate and Inter-seminary Missionary Con- ventions, the Student Volunteer Missionary move- ment, which brings the church face to face with its own answered prayers and forces every denomina tion of Christ’s people to meet the decisiye ques- tion, **Are you in earnest in praying for the conversion of the world, and will you give as you pray. that these young menand young women who are eager to go, may at once be sent as missionaries of the Cross? From this outreaching of the hearts of men toward their fellow men has arisen this latest instrumentality of the church, the allied societies here represented. Endeavor is the secret of advance. Endeavor is the evidence of life. Whenan organism makes no endeavor as against its environment, that person ceasesto be. Endeavor makes all the difference be- tween failure and success. Itis not the endeavor of mere restiessness, seeking a change, it is not the selfish endeavor of ambition, it is not the unsanctified endeavor of willifulness determined merely to make things different in order to make itseiffeit. Itis the Christian endeavor that is the reason for the being of these societies. The ‘*hiding in thefr power, the secret of their strength’’ lies in that word Christian. Any failure to understand this is fatal to the life of a society, fatal to the use- fulness ofa member. The movementis to succeed, not because it is a popular movement, not because it is composed of young people and is popular, nof because itis a popular movement of great numbers of young people associated in endeavor, however firey-hearted and strong, but it is to succeed because ‘ it is Christian, THERE Is both pleasure and fascination in doinga large washing when you are using Fairbank’s Clairette Soap.

The Brave Act of a Young California Maid Saves a Woman and Child. From the San Francisco Examiner. A genuine young heroine, whose deed of daring a few days ago entities her toa place of prominence among the heroes of the hour, is Fannie Krause, at presentan inmate of the Boys’ and Girls’ Aid Society. Fannie is only about 13 or 14 years old, but by no means petite. She will tower a half head or more above the average girl of 15, and has a frame and muscular development that makes her widely respected among all her acquaintances regardless of age. She is simply a young Amazon, and there isn’ta boy about the premises of herage or size that is her equal in aay respect, strength, speed, agility, or physical achievement of whatever kind. And in her way she is quite anattract- ive girl, too. If not bewitchingly beautiful she is as good-natured as the sunshine, an has a frank, open countenance that bespeaks an honest heart and wins the confidence of her acquaintances almost at sight. One day last week Fannie was down town to visit some friendsin the neighborhood of Central Park. As she was going along Mar- ket street, near the corner of Eighth, she noticed a one-horse conveyance containing an elderly lady with a baby in herarms. The horse appeared tobeilll at ease, and even while she stood there took fright at a passer- by waving something redin his hand. With a quick turn the animal made for the other side of the street and started to run. The woman in the conveyance, realizing the danger of her situation, screamed with all her might and called some one to catch the horse. Withthe baby in her arms she could do nothing, and if the animal got under way probably death awaited them both Fannie Krause, and it seems almost provi- dentialthat such was the case. She was quite equalto the emergency, and if there had been a score at hand they could not have done more, nor half so well. Quick as & flash she took in the situation, and makinga wiid dash forthe escaping vehicle, reached it be- fore it bad gonetwice the width of the street. She grasped the buggy boxintherear and leaped clear in behind the seat, then climb- ing overthe seat caught hold of the lHnes, and ina half minute more had brought the frightened animai toa standstill. Quite a crowd had mcanen sig around by the time the vehicle had s opped, and were loud in their expressions of admiration of the young giri’s pluck and presence of mind. When the owner ofthe conveyance came up and saw the narrow escape his wife and child had had, he was almost too frightened to speak, and could hardly express his grati- tude to the young rescuer. He wanted to ve fier some money, but she modestly re- used it, and went on her way as if nothing had happened. CLEAN, CHEAP FUEL. PITTSBURG CRUSHED COKE. All sizes—stove, grate or furnace.

All crops exeellent. This, the Nishnabotna Valley, is best corn country in Iowa. Amount of corn in the hands of farmers and dealers is small, Beerbohm of Jane 25, says: ‘*The final official re- poss on the wheatcrop in the Bombay presidency has een published this week; it shows a larger de- ficiency than had been expected, the total yield be- ing 2,536,000 qrs. this year against 3,500,000 qrs. last year. In other provinces, however, the crop gave more eatipcastory resuits,and it is still expected that the total Indian crop will be about 29,000,000 qrs., against 33,000,000 qrs. last year.’ With regard to wheat, the Russian Government found by an official examination in the latter part of May, that there was a surplus of about two million quarters in the country, over and above the require- ments up to harvest. Compared with the reserves ordinarily held in Russia, this @s a very small quan- sity, and seeing that in no case can the next crop be a large one, the Russiam exports in the season of 1892-'93 are not at ali likely to reach the extent they have shown in recent years. The London £tandard says that, taking into con- sideration the Russian official report thus early in the gee »the outlook for the growing crop of wheat is much more serious than that of last year. when only atthe end of the summer, it was admitted the crops were afalilure. It was only atthe end of the sumnmer that it was admitted thas the crop had failed in seventeen provinces, while this year itis admitted that it is serious in a large number. The Cincinnati Price Current says: ‘*The cool weather the pert week has evidently not essentially prejudiced ¢t average condition of the corn crop and a reasonabie advancément is shown. The aver- age concition regarded as higher than 8v per cent. W heat advices irregular, on the whole furnishing little, ifany ground for enlarging estimates. The spring wheat crop maintains fairly good promise, but late in growth. Oats about $5 per cent, indicat- ing 100, bu under last year. Farmers in- — to hold corn and market wheat freely.’’ . A. King &Co., Toledo, from 1,234 crop re- notes sent them by reliable grain dealers and millers make My | the following summary of the wheat crop in four States: ‘*‘Our 1,200 replies indicate that the wheat crop in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan will be uneven in yield and quality. Nearly haif say } prospects are excellent, one-third say an average crop and the other sixth indicate about 60 per cent of a good crop. Most of the Illinois crop is raised in the central and southern counties, where respects are very favorable; southern ndiana has nearliv as large R hon and Southern Ohio not quite as good. Michigan promises more thanan averagecrop, but the northern half of In- diana has the poorest outlook; northern half of Ohio nearly as bad and the northern half of Illinois has only a fair prospect. The shortagein winter wheat this yearas compared with last is mostly in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri. Prospect now is not quite as favorabie in the four States as it wasa month ago. Ulinois has improved in the southern part of the State; Indiana h.. worse in the northern half and «# e worse in the northern half of Ohio, while Mich- igan »lso promises less favorably. Michigan, Ohio and the northern half of Indiana are turning out be- low expectations of a fortnight ago white Illinois and Southern Indiana are comin to recent ex- pectations. The recent damage bie een caused by the excessive rainfall and hot weather. A third re- port no damage; an eighth damage by rust and a smaller number complain of blight, insects, scabs, smut and lodging. The quali: v promises to average worse than a year ago, when it was very good, Quality is good in Southérn llineis and Southern Indiana. Tne new wheat movement will be small until the middie of July. A very fewin Southern Indiana and Southern Illinois report it moving now, and have sold for first half of July delivery here, but these are exceptions. The movement. will be gen- eral in ten days in the southern half of Ohio, Indi- ana and Illinois and inthe northern counties before August. Michigan will sell very little before Au- ust. Over half report less than an eighth of the astcrop remaining in their section. Michigan, as usual, has the largest proportion left and Ohio next, Lilinols has very littie. ; Beerbohm of June 24 says: ‘‘A considerable quantity of rain has fallen this week, and there can be no doubt that it has done much good. Most.of the re Ropers within the past few days state that the i weather or the previous week has done little or ~~ harm to the corn crops, but serious injur7 proba- biy to potatoes. The opinion with regard to 7 promise of the wheat crop varies considerably; several districts it is described as thin on the re AB. and short in the ear, and in others that the pores are for a go000d crop with a vorable July. In nearly all cases, however, itis agreed that the acreage is less then last vear, in some cases as much as 25 per cent less, but the com- monestimate is that the area isl0 per cent less, which on last year’sareain Great Britian, viz. , 2.- 307,000 acres, représents 230,000 acres, or equal to a deficienc v in the vield of nearly a million quarters. In France the wheat crop is described as satisfactory in many places, but on tbe whole te be likely to yield below and average. Several estimates have heen made, and they vary from 86 million quarters, against a crop last year of 26,000,000 quarters according to commercial estimates, but 28,000,000 quarters ac- cording to the preliminary official returns. Ger- many looks for a fair average crop, asdo aiso Spain and Italy; whilst in Hungary an average yield is anticipated, although rust is com prened ofin many districts; according to the last official estimate 64.44 per cent of the area promises an average, 30.17 per cent above an avesens an¢ ‘only 5.39 of about per cent below. cro therelore expected, 18,000,000 quarters id” against $16,000,000 last year. The Russian reports continue to be contradictory, the official reports be- ing generally more favorable than the commercial and private advices. The crop, however, may be still below an average and yet justify the recent raising of the decree prohibiting exports. The r - crop evidently promises less favorably than. t wheat crop.

One of Them Said, Probably Erroneously, to Belong in New York. From the Kansas City Times. Atrimly built young woman, whose easily confident step and style announced her New York parentage, waiked into the repairing room of an east side railway a few days ago. **How d’ye do, boys?’’ she said to the four mechanics within, whose dirt-environed eyes opened wide as they surveyed her. For a woman ina repair shop is asa drop of water in hades—or Kentucky. The men dropped thelr tools and saluted. ‘*May 1 use your soldering iron?’”* continued the visitor. **(.¢c-certainly,’’ gasped the master me- chanic as he fell over a cogwheel to get it. The young woman put the iron in the char- coal fire and sat down on a box just as if she was at home, waiting for the iron to heat. The mechanics made a pretextof going to work, but they didn’t do much. They wanted to know what she would do with that solder- ing iron. When the iron was hot she removed her hat. About this time the car Inspector came in. ‘*‘*Won’t you hold my hat a minute?’’ she said. Would he holdit? He would have held ita week. Then she took the iron out of the fire, produced a hand glass and proceeded deliberately to curl her hair. The five men watched her peste: When she finished she took up her valise. ‘‘You have been very kind to me,’’ she said. ‘‘I want to ask you to do me one more favor. i have here something that I think would prove both amusing and instructive to you, your wives and children,’ She deliberately opened her valise. **Book agent,’’ said one of the ‘‘boys’’ to the other, as he iooked toward the door. But she was standing too near It. ‘*It is entitled ‘Down the Mississippi,’ a full, complete. concise and succinct account of the history of the beautiful old river and of the people who inhabit the valley.’’ And she talked on and on, and the ‘‘boys’’ —when she left she had orders for five copies at $2 per copy. I told this story to a friend, and he came back at meso: ‘‘She must have beena blood relation of the woman who went into one of the solid banxs of this city a short time since andtoldthe President about her troubles, and the Vice-President and cashier gathered around tohear. She told how she, had a mortgage to pay off, what a hard time she was having: she told a tear-fetching tale, and asked them to buy a copy of ‘Greely’s Arctic Expedition,’ to help her out, price $5 percopy. Now notone of those gentlemen cared arapaboutGreely and his Arctic expedi- tion,or anything else in that line that doesn’t pay sensible dividends, butto help the poor woman out each one produced a $5 bill and gaveittoher. A few dayslater she reap- peared with the books. The entlemen asketl her how she was doing an a few other questions. -Finally one said: ***Are you not married; where is your hus- band?’ he woman looked straightat hima minute, then winkedand held her fist up, fingers closed and thumb pointed down. ‘*The idea seemed to be that her hubby was: Down below Where all is woe, “Then she walked out. The three gentie- men exchanged glances and sheepishly went back totheir desks.’’ A Banquet in Japan. From the Table, Dining is notin Japan the serious business itis in England. The Japanese do not meet to eat, but eat because they have met, and con- versation and amusements form the prin- cipal part ofa banquet. Conversation need not be held only with your neighbors, for if a man wishes to speak to a friend in another part of the room he quietly slips the paper pane) behind him, passes into the veranda, enters the room again and sits down on the floor before his friend. Exchanging cups is the chief a Japanese dinner. TRUST COMPANY OF ST. Capital $4,000,000, wate. Otis, §. W. Cor, Sthand bie Sis, Acts as Executor ret upon the bond of in "| every’ cate ee.

There was aload or so of pretty a) hogs, and some mediums; but the bulk was ree much above common. P e market opened strong at about yesterday’s quotations with a feeling that $6.00 would be reached during the forenoon. n ag this figure was exceeded—two lots bringing $6.10—a jump of 15¢ over yesterday’s best prices. They were very good hogs, being weil matured, but were rather un- even, and would not ordinarily have oeen classed as extra. They were bought by two local butchers whom afew cents more or less do not cut much of @ figure. The fact is that good hogs are badly wanted in this market and their scarcity compels buyers to take in- different stock and to pay more for them than is war- ranted by quality. It was said that if there had been 30 loads of nogs on the market to-day no such figure as $6. 10 would have been paid for the hogs in ques- The market closed rather weaker.

He Objects to the Jailer Opening Letters From Paisoners to Him. Marshall McDonald called at the office of |} Jailer Craemer yesterday afternoon and de- manded a couple of letters wfitten to him by a couple of his clients in jail. ‘‘You have no right, whatever, to open the communication of one of your prisoners to his attorney,’’ said Mr. McDonald, ‘‘and I demand those letéers. Favoritism has been shown by that guard of yours, O’Connor, long enough and I’m not going to stand itany longer. Halfa dozen people have told me that it is well un- derstood among the prisoners in jai! that O’Connor has boycotted the firm of McDonald & Howe, and that their clients in jail are al- lowed no privileges at all that are accorded to other prisoners.’’ Mr. Craemer denied this, and wanted to know the names of the people who had given Mr. McDonald such information, and the at- torney in reply said that he could bring him several prisoners in jail who would say so. Mr. Craemer denied that the communica- tions between other prisoners and their attor- neys were passed through the jail without being read, and claimed that it was his duty to open all mail received by prisoners and all communications from them to their friends on the outside. Mr. McDonald: ‘‘You have no right to open a letter from a prisoner to his attorney unless you suspect that the attorney is engaged ina conspiracy to release the prisoner, and I hope “4 God you don’t suspect me of such a t in Ty ad Jailer Craemer: ‘‘No, I have never sus- pected anything of the kind, but it isa rule of the jail to open all letters, as I said before. Andas for O’Connor’s being to blame, he actef only according to orders when he opened the letters addressed to you.’’ Mr. McDonald saidthat he had good rea- sons to believe that O’Connor was hostile to him ano threatened to have him investi- gated by the Grand-jury if he kept itup. He again demanded the letters and Mr. Craemer produced them, having already put the two letters inan envelope and addressed it to McDonald and Howe ready for mailing. Mr. McDonald said that the letters were written by Watson and Walters,the two men charxed with blowing open a safe of the Gould Direc- tory Co. some three months ago and that they were private communications to their attorneys giving information which he, Mr. McDonald, had asked them to write out, Carondelet Jottings.

The dog catchers were prevalled upon to come down to Carondelet and impound a couple of goats that had en- tered the yard of Poiice Officer Hamsem and wilfully destroyed a handsome flower garden. As the dogcatchers were leading the goats one of the animals objected to being led and began to run from one side of the street to the other and then make a dash for his captor in hopes that his horns would be the cause of effecting his release. In this, however, the animal faliled, but naturally **Billy’s’’ antics elicited from by-standers peals of laughter. ‘The circus kept up for quitea lengthy period and it began to tell onthe men who hadthe animals in charge.

He is called ‘‘Railroad Jack,’’ and is known from Maine to California. Jack is not what would be called handsome. In fact, he isan old, scraggy-looking fellow and so fat) feeble and stiff- jointed, that it is with difficulty he moves about. Jack does not move about on his feet any ** Railroad Jack.’’ oftener than he hasto either, for heisas lazy as he js fat, nd much prefers sleeping to walking. Most of his time he now puts in dozing. Jackisadog of the Scotch terrier breed, and he makes the Albany Railroad depot his headquarters! He wearsa collar presented to him by his railroad friends, and on it is engraved his name and other partic- ulars concerning him. He is well known to railroad men all over the country, as he has made frequent trips on trains, but this is his first visit to St. Louls, he having heretofore senew his travels, as a rule, to the East. He came in from Cleveland, O., this morning on the Big Four with C. J. *nyder, a messenger for the American Ex- press Co., and leaves for Kansas City to- night. Jack left Albany early last Tuesday and is on his summer vacation. Whenever he wants to make a trip he leaps into a baggage car at Albany and goes whither the engine hauls him, His railroad friends are always careful of his welfare. For some unknown reason Jack has taken a decided dislike for the Erie Railroad and will never venture into acar of that company. Onafli other lines, however, he travels with pleasure. Jack will goto Den.- ver from Kansas City and thence to the mountain resorts of Colorado’ before he re- turns to his kennel in the Albany depot. Tags attached to his collar tell the tales of his present trip. Vandalia Line.

Railroad Laborers Among Whom Were a Doctor, a Preacher and a Coroner. From the Pittsburg Post. Supt, Elliott Holbrook of the Baltimore & Ohio road, in the course of an interesting chat, said he did not believe any road in the country could-turn up, like the Baltimore & Ohio, a section gang witha County Coroner, a doctor of divinity, and an ex-member of the Legislature,an emergency physician.

The subject of the purchase of the Chamber of Commerce Building by the Merchants’ Exchange, as recommended by the Board of Directors, was the principal topic of conver- sation to-day. Thosein favor of the propo- sition and those opposed toitare marshaling their forces, and a hot contest will take place on July 12. A movement was set on foot to- day for the purpose of ascertaining what price the city held the Union Market property at. It was asserted that a bonus of several hundred thousand dollars could be obtained from the neighboring property owners if the Merchants’ Exchange would locate on that tot. The movement has not yet taken form, but shouid it prove on in- auiry that the property can be purchased at a low price, an organized movement will be made to purchase it. An annoymous cir- cular was distributed, giving forty reasons why members should vote against buying the present quarters. Some of the agree- ments advanced were that atthe expiration of the lease the. Chamber of Commerce could be purchased for $400,000 instead of $600,000; that the building was not properly located, was notin good condition, and could not be put in order without large expense. The following letter was received by Presi- dent Mason of the Merchants’ Exchange: DEAR S1Kk—Replying to inquiry in letter of George H. Morgan, secretary, bearing daie July 5, I will state that the gross income of the Chamber of Com- merce building for the year ending June 30, 1892 was $81,871.20. There were some rooms unoccupied during that time. In that year I overhauled the lumbing at a cost of $2,479.30, amd put in an extra 7ordon pump for elevator service ata cost of } Ngee The average cost of the insurance was $3,458 and the taxes for 1891 were $9,358.50. The tax®s will be less this year. Therunning expenses, includin repairs, aside from the above were 317,093, a total of $34,456.81, leaving net $47,414.39, and buat for extra expease of pluinbing and elevator would have been $57,961.60. Respectfully, . ROWSE. The advocates of the purchase are confident of success, as are their opponents. The former will soon Issue acircular stating the reasons that influenced the Board of Direc- tors to unanimously recomniend the purchase at $600,000. Produce Exchange Officers. The new Produce Exchange hasj organized and officers have been elected. W. 8. Rich- mond was elected as President and E. T. Hollister as Vice-President and Conrad Schopp as Treasurer. The membership is now about forty-five. No location has yet been chosen and some members arein favor of carrying on the business of the Exchange on the floor of the. Merchants’ Exchange in case proper telegraphic reports are supplied. A petition will be addressed tothe board of directors asking that produce reports be daily posted. Through Spirit Lake Sleepers.

Deputy County Clerk Fred Sunkel thinks he has discovered the man who is entitled to the distinction of having been the youngest person in the service of the Union during the late war.. He was called upon to-day by William Patterson, 40 years of age, whois drawing a pension of $12 per month for services in the rebellion. Patterson came to Belleville a short time ago from Flaget, Io., and is now employed here. Presenting his certificate to Deputy Sunkel this morning he received from the latter a pension voucher for he past quarter and left the Court-house with the money, but not before Mr. Sunkel, whoisadjutant ofthe local G. A. R. post and interested in such matters, had questioned him in regard to his enlistments. Patterson said that he had entered the service of the Government at the age of 11 years and § months. He took service onan Ohio River gunboat in 1863, enlisting fora year, and served the full time, afterwards re- enlisting. Mr. Sunkel thinks the man’s appearance bears out his statements as to his age, and has no doubt that his claim of having enlisted when but 11 years of age is true.

LACK OF HUSTLERS AND POOR TEAM WORK THE TROUBLE. é Big Salaries and Poor Base Ball — New York Will Only Support a Winning Team— The Ewing-Bassett Trouble— St. Louls Wins the Series From Bos- ton—General Sporting News. Manager Patrick Powers and his non-win- ning Giants, who represent New Yorkin the Twelve-club League, arrived this morning . direct from Louisville, where they broke even with the Colonelsina serlesof two games. Speaking of his club’s poor showing this morning, Mr. Powers, who is a lIittle, good-natured looking son of the Emerald Isle, said: ‘‘Yes, I will ad- mit that the boys have hardly realized expectations, especially considering that we pay as high if not higher salaries than any other club in the business. The trouble with the team, in my opinion, is the inability of the men to play tagether. Besides, we have been handicapped by:the absence of hustlers. A winning club mast have some of that class of players within its ranks. They put snap into the men, and that and team work is what has been wanting in our club, We have followed the custom and reduced Salaries. This was absolutely necessary in. our case. We havenot been doing business enough to warrant us to continue paying the salaries we started out todo. With one ex- ception none of the boys objected to the re- duction we made. Thecranks at home are disgusted with the showing we have made and the attendance has in consequence fallen off, affecting our income considerably. The only way the sport can be made fit- able in New Yorkisto havea winning club. By having one every club in the courtry will be benefited, but you can say that before long, and surely by the time we visit here next, we will have a team that will hold its own with the bestofthem. New York at present has thir- teen men, and it is our intention to reduce that number to twelve, providing we can do so without weakening the club. Our three new players—Harry Lyons, Eddie Burke and Jack Doyle—are all with us on this trip. Lyons, who I suppose is well remembered in this city, is playing in agnificent form. I. consider him as good an outfielder as Mike Tiernan, which is gaying a great deal. Burke has replaced Hardie Richardson at second, and we intend to give him a thorough trial before deciding definitely concerning his- future. Doyle, who is a catcher, has been played in the infield ever since he joined the club, and his work has surprised every- one, Should he continue to pat up the game he has been doing so far Iiutend to continue him there permanently and secure another catcher. We have not put in an ————- forany of the players who are to distributed by the strengthen- ing committee, as it is called. That story about us desiring Stovey is incorrect. We havein Hardie Richardson his superior as an outfielder, and just at present we have no chance to play him regularly. George Gore is still a member of the New York Club, but howlonghe will continue so remains to be seen. Concerning the row be- tween Charley Bassett and Capt. Buck Ewing Manager Powers said thatthey hada disa- greement sometime ago, and Bassett, ac- cording to Mr. Powers, let the matter inter- fere with his playing, which forced the man- agement to release him. Bassett, he stated, was a valuable player, however. YESTERDAY’S GAMES. The field work of the Boston team yester- day showed clearly that the 20 per Cent re-’ duction in their salaries is effecting their playing considerably. Especially was this the case as far as Shortstop Long is con cerned. In fact, he seemed to have gotten mixed in his figures, at least he putupa game that gave many of the spectators an ideathat he had been reduced 80 per cent. The fact that Long has always been con- sidered one of the greatest infielders on the diamond, made his poor work yesterday all the more noticeable, It is claimed that he is not in»form. While such may be true, many _ ‘who witnessed his miserable work yesterday came to the concluison that it was not altogether due to his poorcondition. The rest ofthe visitors, particularly Duffy and Tucker, also seemed to be away off in their wore. "Jack Stivetts and Charley Bennett, however, it must be admitted, covered them- selves with glory, especiaily Stivetts, who, notwithstanding the poor support accorded him, came very near winning the game by himself. He was anxious to Gefeat his old club, and if the rest ofthe champions had riayed as well, the resuit ‘would have been different. Getzien, in addi- tion to being batted hard, was at times sup- ported in rotten style.

Apparently he has nota particle of science, nor is he anything like the fast fighter that the scribes of his country have often pictured him. How he stood any show against men Jike JacKson or Choynskiisa mystery tothe sports, Heis a game fellow, though, and a remarkably fair fighter. He is won erfully slow, however, and makes no attempt to avoid punisiment. The general opinion among those who ought to know was that Choynski, in proper fix, could whip him, and it was suggested that he and Kilrain would make a good set-to. But -as to there being a chance for him inthe championship. race the unanimous opinion was that he has no license to soarthat high, PUGILISTIC POINTERS. The Pacific Athietic Club of San Francisco yesterday cabled Choynski at London offer- ing a purse for a match between him and Joe Goddard.

NEW YorK, July 7.—A peculiar and ugly looking infernal machine was brought into the Mulberry Street Station last evening by a policeman. It had been picked up in the doorway of John K. Meyers’ saloon. The machine consisted of a 8-ounce shotgun cartridge shell filled with powder and securely wadded at the opposite end. Tothe cartridge and tightly wrapped aroundit were three or four folds of thick paper, which had been gummed with mucilage. Outside the paper was wrapped several feet of heavy twine, saturated with benzine and covered with sealing wax, the whole forminga com- pact and very hard package. Inthe hole in the metal end of the cartridge was about three inches ofa fuse resembling that of a firecracker and which had apparently been lighted. Meyers says he knows of no one — could have any wish to blow up his place. A Smuggler Seized. SAN DreGo, Cal., July 7.—The British steam schooner Eliza Edwards was seized by cus- toms officers off Point Loma yesterday and brought to this port last night. It is alleged thatthe schooner which cleared from Van- couver, June 22, is engaged in smuggling gen and Chinese, but no systematic search her hold has yet been made. Capt. Bra- man, her master, whoarrived by rail, isin this city to-night and claims he will have no difficulty in proving that the schooner isnot a smuggler. The customs officers insist that contraband cargo was landedin Santa Barbara a few daysago. Collector Osborne attempted to head off the vessel, but lost her in the fog. The chase has been continued down the coast the eatire distance from Van- couver. Illincis Delegates. SPRINGFIELD, lll., July 7.—Gov.

SNITJER, 1118 Olive st. 8t. Louis Mo. A LADY ADVISES LADIES. A Few Secrets From He Her Own Experience Which Can Be Prolitably Adopted by Others. I know @ charming lady who knows more beau- tiful and attractive women thao any other lady in tuis city. In conversation recentiy, she said: **I often feel very sorry when I see so many beautiful women so delicate, and suffering so mach, andI have often afked myself what the reason is? Ithink ladies do not exercise the propercare, They do not eat nourisning food, they are careless of their feet, their necks, their chests. In this way they open the door for dis- eases and those thousands of troubles which so often afflict womankind, but worse than all they allow their life and strength to run down to slowebdb. Howmany women we see constantly in this condition. They need help, tney need something to depend upon, something that will assist them, some friendin need, I know this, largely, from my own experience for I was once in the same condition myself. I thought the matter over carefully. and decided what 1 would do. IknowI needed a gentle, constant stimu- lant, something that would assist my vital forces, keep my biood throbbing and act as atonic. I decided to try Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey and «ite effect hasbeen simply wonderful. I do not know what pains, sickness or weakness are and I am satisfied ladies generally couid be in the same happy condition by a proper use of the same means.’’ This lady’s remarks are entitled to the greatest consideration, for they are an indication of whats hundreds of ladies have found to be a necessity. It should be borne in mind, however, that it is only pure whiskey which should ever be used, and that Duffy’s Pure Maltistheonly one which receivesthe indorsement of scientists and the recommendgtions of physicians. Do not allow any druggist or grocer to induce you to take any other.

Cold! such a thing I never heard. **Why, would you believe it, daughter? Yes you would—but hadn't ought to— I’m that beat-out, Jawsy me There’s that stuck-up Susan Flinders With lace curtains at her windows. Aren’t 1 just as good as she? ‘*Land! your father’!I never let me Have the things Ineed to get me Just to show a decent place, While our neighbors, withot trying, Somehow seem to keep on buying, And we’re left out in the race.’’ **Mother, don’t you know the reason? This is now the clean-up season, Folks are moulting—so to speak, Turning out the old, unsightly— Putting in the new and sprightly, Which they pay for by the week.’’ **You don’t mean to say—I never! Isn’t that too awful clever. Yeti never should have thought, *Cause peer father’s always cry ing ‘Hard times—not a time for buying—’ Seems folks poor as we have bought.’’ Yes, J, sag as poor or poorer, but they went to the right place and got all sorts of usefal and beautiful things on the new and generous plan of weekly pay- ments from “ware.
