Mr. Frick Not Yet Dead, but His Con- dition Critical. THE ASSASSIN HAD BEEN IN PITTSBURG BUT A FEW WEEES. He Claims to Bea Printer, and Gives His Name es Alexander Berkman—He Called on Frick at His Office, and the Attack on the Capitalist Occurred When the Two Men Were Alone— Berkman Now in Custody. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 28, 2 p. m.—At 1:55 o’clock this afternoon H. C. Frick, Manager of the Carnegie steel mills,was shot by a man supposed to be a Hebrew. The man came into his office and without any warning fired. Mr. Frick received four wounds. One is In the neck, two in the back and the fourth in the side. The man hada knife and H. C. Frick. [Manager of the Carnegie Steel Co., Limited ) as only three shots were heard, it is supposed the fourth wound—thatin the side—is from the knife. Dr. Litchfield immediately made an e6xam- ination, but said that he could not yet tell whether the wound 4@jll result fatally. Mr. Frick’s condition, however, is regarded as very serious. The would-be assassin has frequently been in Mr. Frick’s office and was admitted to-day without question. THE MURDEROUS ATTACK. Mr. Frick was alone and what passed be- tween them is not yet known. Three shots were heard. Secretary Leish- man rushed in and grabbed the man, who turned on Mr. Leischman, but was Over- powered. The police were summoned andthe man was taken to the Central Station. He was badly used up and it is evident that a hard fight occurred, Heis young, smooth-faced talland slender. His name hasnotyet been ascertained. One ofthe clerks in Mr. Frick’s office says that Mr. Frick is very badly shot, but it can- not now be ascertained whether the injuries are necessarily fatal. Great excitement prevails and a large crowd surrounds the building in which the Carnegie offices are located. Much incigna- tion is expressed at this cowardly attack. THE ASSASSIN IDENTIFIED. After the arrival of the assassin at the police station it was learned that his name is Alex- ander Berkman. He is a printer, 21 years old, and lives on Forty-second street, this city. He is a Russian Jew and supposed to be an Anarchist. David Forney, the elevator boy, says he has been hanging around the building forthe past three or four days and he has carried him up to Mr. Frick’s room a number of times. Berkman was seen at the Central Station shortly after the shooting and seemed to be perfectly composed. When asked what reason he had for the as- sault he replied: ‘‘You know what reason I had.’’ Berkman ts 5 feet 6 inches high and medium welght. He has beeninthis country about six years and inthiscity two days. The last place he worked was in the Singer Sewing Machine Works in New York. The revolver used was a 38-caliber. Another man has just been arrested on Fifth avenue asan accomplice of the assail- ant of Mr. Frick. STREETS FILLED WITH PEOPLE. The city is ina fever of excitement never before known. The entire block, in which are located the Carnegie Steel Co.’s general offices, is crowded with excited citizens. The news spread like wildfire, and thousands of people are hurrying tothe center of the city from its different sections. A gentleman who was passing on the oppo- site side of the street, says that when he heard the first shot fred, he looked up to the sixth story of the Carnegie building and saw Frick rush to the window and makea frantic effort to pullitup. It failed to budge, how- ever, and he then turned and grappled with his assailant. Immediately thereafter he heard two more &bhots fired. GAINING ADMISSION TO FRICK. Later details of the assault show that all ymorning a man of medium height had been calling at Mr. Frick’s office. He stated that his business was of a private nature. Mr. Frick was too busy to see callers, but finally the man gained admission, No one excepting Mr. Frick and the stranger were inthe officeat thetime. The first bullet entered Mr. Frick’s neck, the other two lodged inthe back. Dr, Litchfleld gaid that he cannot tell yet whether the wounds are fatal. _ Bvidehtly some words were exchanged be- _ gween Mr. Frick and the stranger, and as the pistol was displayed Mr, Frick turned around i thetable. This is why the shots all took ef- fect in the back and back of the neck. David Fortney, the young man who operates the elevator, says that the would. be assassin has been in ana about the building three days. Six or eight times he has taken the manupintheelevator. Eachtime he asked to see Mr. Bosworth of the Carnegie com- pany. Fortney said he never liked the looks of the man, whom he describes asa Hebrew with a mean, sneaking look. The shooting was done witha Hopkins & Allen 88-caliber revolver. Four chambers ofitareempty. While here Berkman says he stopped at the Merchants’ Hotel. FRICK STILL CONSCIOUS. Mr. Frick islying in his private office at- tended by Drs. Litchfield and McClelland. The doors have been closed and no one is permitted to enter. The officials refuse to talk, but promise a statement later. It is believed that Mr. Frick is conscious and that his wounds are not necessarily fatal. He is a robust man, with a_ splendid constitution andif no vital spot has been touched he will soon rally. The news spread like wildfire and in a few minutes Ffth avenue in the vicinity of the Carnegie offices, was thronged with an excited crowd, The building was quickly closed and offl- cers Stationed at the entrance to prevent the passage of any one. Indignation was generally expressed at the cowardly crime and the perpetrator was denounced on all sides and by all classes. As he was escorted to the station a large crowd followed crying: ‘‘Shoot him,’’ ‘thang bhim,’’ etc. STATEMENTS OF EMPLOYES. The most connected story of the tragedy is gleaned from the young man in charge of the elevator,and other employes of the build- ing, onthe sixth floorofwhich Mr. Frick’s office is located. From these persons it ap- pears thata moment before the tragedy,a slim, dark complected young man, neatly dressed in light clothing entered the elevator car on the first floor and requested to be let out at the _ office of the chairman of the company. The elevatorman, while the car was ascend- ing, moticed that his passenger acted nervously and had a wild look in his eyes. But, accustomed, as he has been during the past few days to seeing all conditions of men, he did not give that matter a second thought. Leaving the car, the stranger proceeded across the hall and entered Mr. fFrick’s outer office, and requested the usher to take him to Mr. Frick. The boy, having recognized his visitor as a man whocalied yesterday and was refused an audience, complied, and immediately thereafter the voice of Mr. Frick was heard in the outside office saying let him come In. The man stepped briskly through the glass door into the private office. What brief con- versation passed between the two men is not known, but it was hardly more than a minute before there was a noise like a scuffle, and then a shot rang out upon the air, Before the startled clerks in the other office could rush to the scene there were three more shots. TRIED TO ESCAPE. The first man to enter the room found Frick hanging onto his assailant, while blood was streaming from his wounds. At the sight of the clerk, the would-be assassin shook him- self loose from his'victim and dashed out of the door, but instead of taking to the stairs, made a bound into the elevator car which was standing there with the door open atthe time. The elevatoriman had sufiicient pres- ence of mind to hold himinthecab untilthe arrival of officers McRoberts and Crossin, who placed him under arrest. In the meanwhile, an immense crowd had begun to gather in the streets, and when the officers appeared with their prisonsr, who was pale and trembling, and with his clothing spattered with blood, there were hundreds of groans and howls, intermingled with cries of ‘‘shoot him!’’ ‘*Lynch the mur- derer!’’ It was with difficulty that the officers suc- ceeded in conveying the man in safety to the patrol box at the corner of Wood street and Fifth avenue, from which the patrol wagon was summoned. He was roughly pushed into the vehicle and taken to Central Station. When questioned regarding his occupation, he said he had beena compositor on a New York paper, but declined to give his name, Upon being searched a number of 38-calibre cartridges were found in his coat pocket. During the process of searching he became wildly excited and became deadly pale, It was the general im- pression of all who saw him at this juncture that he was undoubtedly demented. Before being locoked up, he was asked if he knew Mr. Frick and replied in the affirmative. A CLERK’S STORY OF THE TRAGEDY. One of the Carnegie clerks who stood guard at the door after the shooting occurred, said: ‘*We were all busily engaged at work. The door leading from the hallway stood open. Mr. Frick was alone in his private office. Suddenly we were all startled by a noise which sounded like the swinging of a door. About half a minute afterward four pistol shots broke the stiliness of the office and just then a man darted out from Mr. Frick’s private office. It was then we realized what had occurred and running to Mr. Frick, found him lying upon the floor with his hang near his heart. As the assassin reached the stairway, he was intercepted by some men who had heard the shooting, and they stopped him.’’ Immediately after the tragedy, leading from the Carnegie building were closely guarded, admittance was denied to body, no matter what the ture of their business. Inside building the confused murmur . of the crowds upon the street were plainly heard. In the meantime all the phy- sicians in the neighborhood had been sum- moned, and with Dr. Litchfield, an eminent practitioner, at their head, proceeded to administer to the wounded man, and who, although weak from the loss of blood and suffering great pain, still retained consciousness. He was lying on a couch when the doctors arrived and the first report that came out, which was evidently based on the superficial ex- amination, was to the effect that four shots had taken effect, that one had penetrated the bowels, another had entered the chords in the back of his neck. Later the sem!-official statement came that three shots had taken. effect, one in the ear and in the neck and a third inthe back. The unfortunate man had also re- ceived a serious gash in the back froma sharp knife. , ONE OF THE BALLS EXTRACTED. It wes decided thatthe patient could not be immediately removed to his_ resi- dence, except at the risk of his life and for two hours thereafter the phys- doors office and every- na- the lans exerted themselves toward alleviat- ing his sufferings by all methods and by all medical applicances known to medical sci- ence. At 3:30 p. m, word came from the room that one of the balls had been extracted, but which one was not stated. The attending physicians will risk no opinion regarding the chances of Mr. Fricks recovery. It is feared that the effect of the news upon Mrs. Frick, who, eight or ten days ago, be- came the mother of a little boy, and who is devotedly attached to her husband, will be very serious. The excitement in the city is growing with every minute and no such fever has been experienced since the riots of 1877. Business men have left. their stores and are mingled with the surging crowd of people and business in the central portion of the city, for the time be- ing, is practically suspended. : Henry O. Frick is the head chief and prac- tically the absolute dictator of the great Carnegie iron and steel enterprise, the controller of the coke industries of the west- ern part of the State, and the possessor of a fortune estimated at from $5,000,000 to $10,000,000. Mr. Frick had no guards about him as has been generally reported. Since the commencement of the trouble he had never barred his office door ana was easily to be seen on inquiry oof a door- Keeper, Strangers were, of course, asked their business, but an answer that it was of a private nature would be accepted and the visitor shown into the room. Mr. Frick walked about his office building and on the streets unaccompanied. He thought no one would molest him. THE NEWS AT HOMESTEAD. LEADERS DEPLORE THE EVENT, BUT MANY OF THE RANK AND FILE EXULT. HOMESTEAD, Pa., July 23.—The report of the shooting of Chairman Frick spread like wildfire here. Persons are crowding the bulletin boards in front of the telegraph offices. The leaders deplore it, but many of the strikers are saying: ‘‘Served him right,’’ ‘‘Wish he was dead,’’ etc. The militia are ready to suppress any outbreak. But it may be said thestrikers in Home- stead are shocked over bul- letins announcing the shooting of H, C. Frick. The first unthinking movement of some of the men was one of condemnation of Frick, but the cooler heads, and without exception the American leaders of the strike, sternly suppressed these indecent manifestations and were most outspoken in their denunciation of the attempted murder. George Chumpind said: ‘‘Mr. Frick knows and everybody in Homestead knows my po- sition in this strike, Ihave no friendship for him, but I have pity for him if these reports are true and I know that the man who shot him was no friend of labor, no matter what he may have thought. We know our rights, but we know that we cannot vindicate them this way.’’ REGRETS AT WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON, D., C., July 23.—The news of the shooting of Mr. Frick was received by the members of the House with expression of deep regret. Itis regarded as militating strongly against the cause of the strikers and is universally deplored. But few Senators were in the Chamber when the news came ofthe shooting of Mr. Frick. They were deeply impressed, and some of them who have been foremost in the discussions which have taken place on the subject of relations of capitaland labor and the Homestead troubles were plunged into a thoughtful mood. It was with a feeling of relief that they received the later dispatch announcing that the act was not committed by any of the strikers, although some ofthe Senators who sympathize with the latter feared thatthe labor organizations would be held chargeable for the occurrence by many people who jump at conclusions. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 23.—Ex-Sheriff Gray was on the stand in the O’Donnell-Ross case when the news reached the court-room that Mr. Frick had been shot three times in his office and the news caused great excitement. Mr. O’Donneil was evidently greatly shocked and said: **Oh, that isterrible, that is terrible.’’ He was deeply and visibly affected and it was with the greatest efforts that he could con- trol himsell. O’DONNELL DEPRESSED. THE MILL-WORKERS’ LEADERS HEARD OF BERKMAN. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 23.—When Hugh O’ Donnell was seen in the jail he was greatly depressed over the shooting of Mr, Frick, ‘‘I hope to God,’’ said he, **that it is not true. I feel sorry for Mrs. Frick.’’ The man Berk- man, he said, he had neverheardof. He was not connected with the Amalgamated As- sociation and was not known at Homestead. Both leaders deplored the shooting. Presi- dent Weihe of the Amalgamated Association HAD NEVER d: ‘The news of the shooting was a great sur- prisetome. Icanonly say that I am sin- cerely sorry for Mr, Frick and that the deed was cowardly.’’ THE GIRL TOO YOUNG, William Griftkamper Cannot Right the Wrong He Dia Minnie Anderson. Wm, Griftkamper residing on Thirteenth, near Howard _ streets, who was ar- rested on a charge of betraying Minnie Anderson, 206 Buchanan street, called at theoffice of Recorder Hobbs in the Court- house this afternoon in company with the girl and her mother. Griftkamper, who is out on bond, expresseda willingness to marry the girl, who is under age, and the irl’s mother consented to the marriage, ut as the girl is less than 14 years old the Recorder could not issue the license, the law prohibiting the marriage of a girl under 14 years of age. Under the law a girl of that age cannot give her consent to her betrayal, and Giftkamper will have to stand trial ona charge of criminal assault instead of seduc- tion. Damage Suits Filed. LITTLE Rock, Ark., July 23.—Three heavy damage suits were filed in the United States Court to-day against the St. Louls South- western Railroad Co. forinjuries growing out ofthe disasters which occurred on May 20 at C Bayou in which a number of lives Were lost by a collision between a freight and passenger train. Prof. Rufus A. Clare, President of the college at Winchester, Tenn., brings suit for himself and children on account of the kill- ing of his wife, Mrs. Ellen Clark. Miss Ella Rela, who was then on her way to Texas, also sues for serious imjuries received in the same a ag The two suits amount in allto 125, 009. ————— A Pioneer Gone. MEx100, Mo., July 23.—Robert Luckie, Sr., one of the pioneers of Audrain, died last evening, aged 88, Numerous and Eventful. From the Chicago News-Record. Russell B. Harrison isagain growing num- i erous and eventful, AFTER ALLI Homestead Strikers Appealing for Outside Assistance. Pressure to Be Brought on the Edgar Thompson Operatives. EFFORTS WILL BE MADE TO ENLIST THE COKE WORKERS, Ominous Threats Reported by Railroad Men Handling Carnegie Steel—Civil Authority Has Superceded the Mili- tary — Homestead Swarming With Guards of Various Degree—Pinkerton Answers to Pointed Questions. HOMESTEAD, Pa., July 23.—‘‘On to Brad- dock’’ was the warcry here to-day. It was whispered in every dwelling, mooted atevery street corner, talked over at different meet- ings, until the trains roaring past to Brad- dock, carrying hundreds of the locked-out men, seemed to carry also a refrain which is music to the hopes of the Homesteaders., ‘*Braddock will close down,’’ they said. With the bringing out of the Duquesne work- ers the people here expect that the public sentiment at home, assisted by pressure from here and Duquesne, will compel the Edgar Thompson plant operatives to quit almost immediately. The men here propose making a vigorous effort tothat end, and the Amal- gamated Association is willing to promise everything to the Braddock men if they join the sympathy strike movement. Despite the gloomy reports from the coke region the men here do not intend to aban- don that region withoutanattempt. It is proposed, if the Braddock men strike, to make personal appeals to the coke workers, send up Slav operators andagitators and also toscatter broadcast pamphlets bearing on the strikeand appealing tothe men to take advantage of this time and organize. It is to be dinned into the ears of coke workers that the militia is now at Homestead andthey need fear no repetition of the Loar incident. AN OMINOUS THREAT. A darker and more threatening story ts in circulation here, which causes much adverse comment, though denied by the Advisory Committee. Several engineers on freight trains over the Monongahela Division of the Pittsburg-McKeesport Railroad have been approached and warned by’parties unknown thatifthey carried a pound of steel out of the Munhall yards they wo@uld beshot. The engineers have been requested to furnish descriptions of the men uttering the threats and prompt arrests will be made. The chief danger of a physical force col- lision in Homestead was generally expected to follow on the release of Hugh O’ Donnell and hisreturn home if that should take place. Intheevent of bail being accepted for him by thecourt his friends here have determined to give hima rousing reception home and the authorities were equally pos- itive that no such demonstration should be permitted. If a welcome with a procession should be attempted, the outlook wg that a serious encounter would certainly occur, Provost Marshal Green said the Sheriff had decided to prevent any public assembly of the kind and his clearly stated declaration was made this morning that a parade would be stopped, The steel workers on the other hand said the proposed prohibition was wholly illegal, and they would not submit. The story sent out from here last night that a non-union carpenter was beaten by the strikers is with- out foundation. CIVIL AUTHORITY RULES. In addition tothe militiamen, numbering nearly six thousand, the company has its own watchmen anda force of coaland iron police inside the works, while the borough of Homestead has on duty its four regular policemen and sixty special officers, Sheriff McCleary’s sixteen deputies have charge of Homestead to-day and the authority of the military has been minimized. The men on guard duty have been given to understand that the civil authorities and not the militia are incommana and that theirorders must be obeyed when they call onthe militiamen to assist them in the discharge of their duty. Anorderhas been issued to the deputies to prevent unusual gatherings about the town, and strict injunctions have been given to disperse any attempt at dem- onstration onthe part of the workers, par. ticularly if speech making is contemplated. There are no signs of dissolution in Camp Black yet, although many rumors of home- have placed the lethargic militiamen on the qui vive for orders to break camp. The Third Brigade Band has been ordered home, but the men under arms have received no sim- ilar instructions. Reports have been made at the headquar- ters of the mechanics and laborers that about twenty-five of their men have returned to work in the mill. Despite the strenuous efforts of the Carnegie Co.’s Officials to pre- vent scouts sent out by the strikers from get- ting intothe works, several agents of the locked-out men have managed to ascertain what is going on inside the big fence and fre- quent reports are made to the headquarters of the Advisory Committee of the condition of affairsthere. The company particularly object to the efforts of the newspaper men and others to keep tally of the non-union men landed by the steamer Tide each day, but so far the efforts have mot proved suc- cessful, intents THE PINKERTONS. ANSWERS TO THE TWENTY-FOUR QUESTIONS PROPOUNDED BY THE COMMITTEE. Wasnineron, D. O., July 23.—In answer to the twenty-four questions presented by the Chairman of the Congressional Investigating Committee at the request of the Homestead strikers and published inthe Post-DIsPaATCH yesterday Robert A. Pinkerton, head of the Pinkerton Agency. testified, In reply to the first three questions he said that the National Pinkerton Agency was Controlled by Robert A. and William Pinkerton, With their main offices in New York and Chicago. The former was operated by Robert Pinkerton and the latter by William Pinkerton. They also had six other branches in other cities. The nature of the business of the #8e2Cy was to furnish watchmen for private business firms, race courses, fairs, etc. Replying to question 4 be said that the & agency had about 200 rifles, 400 pistols, clubs, etc., deposited at Chicago. In reply to question 5, he said that the number of persons employed did not exceed 600in all parts of the country, including clerks, stenographers, etc., and, to the best of his belief, the number of men employed by them never exceeded 800 at one time. In reply to question 6, he said that.the only authority they exercised over their men was that ofanemployer. They were required to be sober and industrious. Replying to question 7, he stated that their men were not required to bear arms, and were at. liberty to refuse to gg to a place to which they were ordered if they chose, Mr. Pinkerton, at the advice of his counsel, refused to give the contracts with his men. Replying to questions 8, he said that the re. quest was made by the Carnegie company to send them about three hundred watchmen. In answer to question 9, he said that his firm had been engaged by Mr. Frick during the coke strike in Pennsylvania, at which time they sent about one hundred and fifty watchmen, They were sworn in as deputy marshals. Representative Boatner (Dem.) of Louisi- ana, a member of the committee, here made some objection to the questions of the labor eople, stating that he thought it was a re- Seotion upon the committee that they would not conduct the investigation in a proper way and would not ask the questions neces- sary to develop the desired evidence, Representative Bynum (Dem.) of Indiana differed from him, and Representative Oates continued to put the questions. To question 10 Mr. Pinkerton replied that the Carnegie Co. wanted 300 men by July 6. The men were furnished. They came from New York, Chicago and Philadelphia. The men knew for what they were wanted. Replying to question 11, he said that he did not Know personally anything about the barges, but thought they were ordinary barges used in transportation. . Replying to guestion 12, he said that he did not believe the barges were lined with iron and proof against small! firearms. In reply to question 14, he said that the barges were not secure from attack, and that he would not have allowed his mento have goneonthem if hethought that they would nave been attacked, The replies to the balance of the questions were as follows: 14. Barges were employed because we ex- pected that our watchmen would be enabled toland uponthe company’s property with- out causing any breach of the peace or tend- ingtoexcitethe strikers, The landing was made atnight, when we Delieved the men would be in bed. Our sole desire was to avoid the inciting or aggravating of a riot. Had we known thatthe men could not land without a breach of the peace we should not have permitted them to go unless authorized by the Governor or deputized by the Sheriff. 15. There were about 310 men on the M ayen| ar: anout 250 rifles, about 300 pistols and night ubs. 16. About two-thirds of the men had previ- ously been in our employ. They had no authority over the other men. All were under the charge of F. H. Hines, a trustworthy, prudent and reliable old employe of ours. 17. About 120 men were sent from Chicago, 76 from Philadelphia and 120 from New York, All met at Ashtabula, O.; went from there to a point near Youngstown, O., where they were put on barges. 18. The arms on the barges were in boxes, and were destined for the yards and private property of the Carnegie Co. Our i- tive Instructions wére that they shonld not be given to the men until after they had been sworn in by the Sheriff, and we were assured that that would be done uponthe first signs oftrouble. Our men were notto commit a breach of the peace, and there was no under- standing that they were in with the Carnegie people or anyone else. We would not permit the men to use force to recover possession of the works unless they had been sworn in by the Sheriff. 19. Themen were not instructed to fire upon thre strikers, and would not have fired upon them had they not been attacked and six of their number killed. 20. Weunderstood that the Carnegie com- pany had duly applied to the proper autnor- ities and that we were going to Homestead with the consent and approval of the Sheriff. 21. Wewere advised by counsel that we had a perfect right to send watchmen from one State to another. We have never at- tempteatosendan armed body anywhere. The principal Deputy Sheriff of Allegheny County accompanied our men, 22 and 23. Mr. Pinkerton stated that these questions involved a matter of law, and it would be a waste of time for himto attempt to instruct the committee. 24. Inall our experience, not a single in- stance can be cited where our men fired upon strikers, exceptasa last resort to save their lives. Intwenty years three men have been killed by our watchmen up tothe time of the Homestead affair. In every instance they were sworn in as deputy sheriffs or peace officers,and whenever tried have been ac- quitted. Replying to a question by Mr. Oates, wit- ness saidthat Mr. Frick had agreed to pay him $5a day for eachman furnished. ‘The men, he said, were in = of F. H. Hine. Mr. Hine was shot twice in ype ty to land at Homestead, and was still in the Hos- pital at Pittsbarg. Witness had no personal knowledge of the character of the barges; he did not see them andall he knew about them was gathered from newspaper accounts. His men, he said, had never to his knowledge made an assault on m7 d erson, but had fired, when assailed, in sel defense. They only went armed when acting as peace Officers or when defending life and property. They did not carry arms through the country, but had them sent to them. The occasions when they went armed were when on trains defending express and railroad property, and on these occasions they never used arms unless forcedto do so. Witness said that he had refused to fur- nish Mr. Frick men unless they were sworn in as deputies. The arms used at Home- stead were shipped from Chicago. He as- sumed they were delivered to the barges by order of Mr. Frick, but could not state pcsi- tively. His men were notto use their arms unless they swore in or were attacked and their lives in danger. ‘*IT had no reason to anticipate an attack,’’ he said, ‘‘on the barges and gave no orders in regard to the arms. Iexpected my men wears land and go into the works unmo- lested.,’ If the Homestead workers had come into the works and tried to put his men out they would not then have usedarms. They would oe a fight, using what are called ‘“‘night clubs.’’ Referring to the Chicago, Burlington & oeey strike, upon which Representative soatner questioned him, Mr. Pinkerton said hismenon different parts of the road were sworn in, and those having arms were placed at the most troublesome ces. He thought if his men at Homestead had fired to kill they would have been successful in dislodging the strikers, **We have madeita rule,’’ he said, ‘‘to have our men sworn in as peace officers, Possibly along the Ohicago, aton & Quincy our men acted as watchmen without being sworn, but there was no trouble. When Iengage in work with my men I am sworn in asa deputy sheriffand receive orders from the Sheriff and also give orders tou the men.’’ Mr. Pinkerton denied the statement that women had been killed by his men and also said that he employed women as detectives. _in response to Mr, Boatnerthe witness said that there were a numberof companies like hisown. He had not furnished any men at the Idaho troubles. In reply to Mr. Bynum, he said his was a a co arg organization doing a detective business, and during strikes to protect prop- erty generally. In reply to Mr. Broderick, he said that he reported to the authorities, and the men were Sworn in as deputies, but not otherwise. He had furnished a number of detectives in Washington during the inauguration. He had picked the men. They were selected to pick out professional thieves. Mr. Oates asked witness what he had to of the statement that fifty have scattered the Homestead mob, and that “witness replied thant Bo hms cake on epiied that h They said ¥ hi . and théy con- ofthe kind. The n was over the start not over twen | squarely at the K. of L. men present. He saidthat he had never seen a strike when labor organizations or their men bad not abused non-union men, He had seen men knocked off trains; he had seen them beaten almost todeath;he had known members of this very K. of L., whose representatives were here, to put obstructions on the track and to put dynamite under cars; he had seen men who wanted to work treated worse than savages by representatives of secret labor organizations, and he had had them sent to prison for It. Wm. A. Pinkerton was next sworn, and corroborated ali that his brother had said. The committee adjourned, su bject to call of the Chairman. IN COURT. APPLICATION FOR THE RELEASE OF O’DON- NELL AND ROSS HEARD. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 23.—After three hours of continuous argument and taking of testi- mony in the application for the admission to bail of Hugh O’Donnell, the court at 12:25 o’clock took a recess until 1 p. m. Three times as many men as the court- room would hold clamored around the doors for admission this morning and when the doors were opened the officers were literally shoved aside by the rush of humanity that poured ‘in. When the room was packed until nota single human being could get inside, the atmosphere was as stifling as that of the black hole of Calcutta.There were still enough people in the corridors and out on the street to fillit twice over again. Homestead was largely represented, and so were most ofthe labor unions of this vicinity. When O’Don- nell and Ross were first brought intothe court, they were placed in the prisoners’ dock. By orders of Judge Magee they were brought before the bar of the court and were accommodated with seats. The two eminent criminal counsel engagea by the Carnegie company, Messrs. Robband Patterson, rein- forced District Attorney Burleigh, and it was evident from the start that a desperate fight was to be made against O’Donnell se- curing his liberty. The ball was seta rolling by the District Attorney, who said that the Commonwealth ha decided sist the application, was therefore the duty defense to show cause why its client was en- titled to bail. This position was vigorous! antagonized by Attorney Brennan on behalf of O’Donnellon the ground that when the prisoner gave himself up it became the duty of the Commonwealth to show cause why he should be held. The mere charge in the information was not sufficient as against the constitutional provision under which every man charged with any crime other than a capital one, was entitied to bail. In the longand technical discussion that followed, District Attorney Burleigh, Messrs. Robb and Patter- son made speeches characterized by consid- erable warmth. All of them took the ground that having waived a hearing, the accused had now no right the commonwealth hand and indicate against him. The attorneys were frequently interrupted by the court with remarks indi- cating that he was not er inclined toward their position. Finally the court decided that the information did not charge rourder in the first degree; that the mouth of defendant was closed until his trial and that the question was whether or under the infor. mation he had an _- absolute right to bail. From this point he wanted to hear testimony. Counsel for the prosecution SEeepoe put their heads together and de- cided to go ahead. Up to noon recess the witnesses examined were Nevin McConnell of Munhali, Superintendent of the open works at Carnegie’s mills; John Cooper, a Pinkerton man, residing at No. 511 Pacific street, Brooklyn; W. H. Burt, another Pink- erton man, of No. 1211 Wrightwood avenue, Chicago, show it to be first degree it is pre- sumed to be second degree, The com- monwealth, he said, must produce ev- idence of first-degree murder other- wise it would regarde as bailable offense. The witnesses were then called. Among the number were séveral Pinkerton men, including John Cooper of New York, Frederick Primer of Philadelphia, C. W. Biddell of Brooklyn and W. H. Bent of Chicago. These men testified that O’ Donnell was on the bank before and after the firing commenced, R, W. Herbert, a mawepaper reporter, said O’Donnell was present, but so far as he-coulda see, was doing no moreinthe riot than he (Herbert) was, Samuel Stewart, a clerk for Carnegie, said that Weihe, Garland and O’Donnell ad- dressed the men and halfan hour later the es quit firingand the Pinkertons surren- ered. At this point the Court took a recess for dinner. FROM HUSTON’S STANDPOINT. AN IRON MANUFACTURER’S VIEWS ON THE HOME- STEAD AFFAIR. BosTOn, Mass., July 23:—A.F. Huston, Vice- President of the Lukens Iron & Steel Co. of Philadelphia, with works at Coatesville, Pa., is visiting relativesin Cambridge, Speaking of the Homestead strike Mr. Huston said toa reporter: **As regards the merits of the case Iam in sympathy with the Carnegia company. In the western part of Pennsylvania, in fact in the whole of Pennsylvania west of the Alieghenies, the wages of the workers in iron and steel mills have been excessively high, and such labor in Pittsburg and vicinity com- mands higher wages than “n any place east ofit. The reason tor this is that the Amal- gamated Association is stronger in the west- ern part Of Pennsylvania than place else. An age a4 of the extraordinary wages aid these skilled workmen is that of More- ead Bros. of Pittsburg. Bythe introduction of new machinery one man is able to handle more tons andthe Amalgamated Association insists, nevertheless, on the same rate per ton. The rollers in the vicinity of Pittsburg are no more skilied than othersin the eastern part of the State. **As regards the change in the fiscal year which the Carnegie company proposes, I can- not see how that can affect the strikers. Ido not believe that where coal is so cheap the necessity of workers becomes sufficiently aan to makea contract against their in- erest. **In the matter of the Pinkertons the facts are that these men were private citizens hired as watchmen to guard the Homestead Steel Works as one hires a watchman to ard one’s factory at night. lif the strikers red on the men first they put themselves outside the pale of the law. ue, it would be difficult to identify these men, and beyond this it is probable that it would be difficult to obtain a jury that would convict them.’’ As to tne outcome of the strike Mr. Huston pe ee himself as confident that in the end the strikers would be compelled to yield, although it may be months before the works can be put in operation again. **I believe the present trouble will subside, without any especial results, in the same way that the Knights of Labor troubles blew over several years ago.’’ WORK RESUMED. to THREE CAR LOADS OF MEN RUN IN DURING THE NIGHT. | - HOMESTEAD, Pa., July 23.—The Carnegie steel works are being operated as usual to- day by non-union men whose numbers are gradually increasing... Three Delaware, Lackawanna & Western passenger coaches ure reported to have been run into the works last night over the tracks of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and a number of men are said to have debarked. There is now no doubt of the truth ‘of the statement that the Carnegies has had hundreds of applications for posi- tions in the Homestead mills for non-union men. These workers are being sent to the mills in small batches of from ten to Ofty, and as the number increases ligh new work fed and | .fore Alderman McMasters and committed dissension among the non-union men and re. tard the progress the company is making in operat e@ works. Danger from this source, is not, however, likely to appear while the works are so well guarded. MORE ARRESTS. MATTHEW FOY AND PETER ALLEN HURRIED TO JAIL. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 23.—O’Donnell and Ross had two of their fellow workmen for company in the county jalllast night. At @ late hour Detective Jesse Morris came in from Homestead, having in custody Matthew Foy, aged 55 years, father of Tom Foy, who wags dangerously injured by a Pinkerton bullet, and Peter Allen, aged 50 years, whom he had arrested at Homestead on warrants charging them with murder. These are two of the fif- teen men against whom Secretary Lovejoy made informations Wednesday, and whicna informations were suppressed. As a conse- quence the men were taken by surprise when accosted by the detective in Homestead — terday, and were hustled onto a train be — the half-dozen persons who had gathe could get an inkling of what was going <« Upon reaching this city they were en ea the county jail for a hearing on Tuesday next. Both men admitted that they were on the ground during the rioting, but denied that they had done any firing ‘or otherwise participated inany violence. Both the men are above the average of Homestead intelli- gence. Foy was attired in a G. A. R. suit and wore a veteran’s button. GOING ON THE STAGE. G’DONNELL TO AAPEAR IN A CAPITAL AND LABOR PLAY. WILKESBARRE, Pa., July 23.—Samuel W. Boyd, editor of the Newsdealer of this city, re. turned from New York to-day, where he went on Tuesday last for the purpose of conferring with Hugh O’Donnell, leader of the Home- stead strikers. It is authoritatively stated that Mr. Boyd closed a contract with Mr. O’Donnell for his appearance in the capital and labor play, ‘‘Underground,’’ which opens its season at Pittsburg. D. L. Hart of this city, author of the play, telegraphea O’Donnell offering himan engagement and the meeting between the latter ana Mr. Boyd was the result. CONTRACTS INTERRUPTED. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 23.—Work on the cruiser New York is being delayed Bbe- cause of the non-arrivalof her armor from the Carnegie works. The boat will be launched next weex, but without outside armor, the Carnegie works having this con- tractaiso. The Indiana armor for launching is all here from the Bethlehem iron-works. FIRES. The Bollingbrook Stables Burned to the. f Ground. : BALTIMORE, Md., July 23.—The famous Bollingbrook stables on the farm of Mr. B. W. Waldeao at Middleburg, Carroll County, Maryland, were struck by lightning and set on fire last night. The flames spread and soon enveloped the whole series of buildings. The blaze lit up the country for miles around. The cries of the frightened horses could be heard foralong distance. Bolling- brook is a model stock farm. John A, and A, H. Morris own most of the horses there. The horses are valued at nearly halfa million dollars. The stallions include such animals as imp. Galore, who cost $30,000; Tom Ochil- tree, and the beautiful imp. Hopeful. Prob- ably the only insured horse on the farm is imp. Galore, for only $7,000. It has not yet been learned inthis city what the extent of the damage may have been. ) Sixteen horses were burned to death but names are not given. The buildings were entirely destroyed. The main stable con- tained about one hundred box stalls and wag ellipticalin shape. A few yards from the main stable and extending around it was a covered race track where the horses were trained in bad weather. Over the stable was a school room and sleeping accommodations for the thirty or more rubber boys. At one end were feed and saddle rooms. The stable was a hanasome structure and was substan- tially built. Mr. Walden is at Monmouth Park track, and his son, Mr. Robert Walden, has the management of the stock, PANIC IN A HOTEL, LONG BRANCH, N. J., July 23.—The annex to Riorson & Brown’s stable at West End was struck by lightning at midnight last night andina moment the place was in flames. Fortunately all the employes were up watch- ing the storm and horses and carriages were ot out in safety. The guests at the West cnd Hotel, behind which the stable stands, were in a state of panic, as there was a strong wind blowing, and for a time fears were entertained thatthe fire might com- municate to the hotel. At 12:40 this morning the wind fell flat and all danger was over, The fire, with the destruction of the stables, burned itself out. FOREST FIRES IN CAPE BRETON, HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, July 23.—So little rain has fallen in Cape Breton for the last six weeks that forest fires have started and been raging forthe pastten days. People inall directions are becoming very much alarmed . in consequence, fearing they have an experience similar to that of 8t. John’s, New- foundland. Unless thereis rain to-night or to-morrow much property will be destroyed throughout the counties, andthe fires may reach Sydney aod North sydney. DEPOT BURNED. ATHOL, Mass., July 23.—The depot of the Fitchburg Railroad, one of the finest on the road, was gutted by fire lastnight. The loss to the company will .be heavy, and the fire will cause much inconvenience, as the bulid- ing was useG as a depot for both the Fitch- burg and Boston & Albany roads, BREWERY BURNED. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 23. — Hen- rich’s brewery, the largest plant of the kind in Washington, was destroyed by fire at 8:30 this morning. The loss will reach $125,000, . LABOR NEWS. Quarrymen at the Point of Starvation Growing Ugly. ENGELWOOD, N.

Burglars Raid the Town of Clarks- ville, Mo.-—Fatal Fight With Circus Men in a New York Town—The Deadly Winchester—An Indian Defaulter—A Day’s Crimes. DrNveR, Colo., July 23.—Shortly after mid- might, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Scott, living at ‘3221 Champ street, were almost chopped to Pieces in their bed. The weapon used was a hatchet. The victims were discovered in an unconscious condition and, although still alive, there is little hope of their living through the day. Peter Heenan, the former husband of Mrs. Scott, is suspected of having committed the crime, being prompted by jealousy. Some timeago he wrote from Los Angeles, Cal., to Mrs. Scott, threatening herlife. Itis thought he came to Denver and attempted to make good his threat. Search is being made for him. HE USBD THE GUN. JENNINGS’ VILLAGER, Fla., July 23.—Yester- Gay Edwin Hendrick, who lives near this town, went tothe house of his brother-in- law, Allen Holzendorf, carrying with him a Winchester rifie. Holzendorf jokingly re- marked that he thought it was useless for Hendrick to carry his gun with him any- where, as he was never known to use it, Without any other word Hendrick replied: ° you, I willuse it on younow.’’ im- mediately he threw the ‘Winchester to his face and deliberately shot Holzendaorf through the heart, killing him instantly. Hendrick escaped. The men were to all ap- Pearances fast friends. WAYLAID AND MURDERED. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 23.—Peter H.

He was in the habit of carrying home from his store ever pe money in a hand satchel, and as this is missing; robbery was evidently the Cause ofthe murder, Sixty-five dollars and @ watch were left on his person. BUSY BURGLARS. CLARKSVILLE, Mo., July 28.—Last night a Dumber of houses in this city were entered by burglars and considerable money, several watches and some other things taken. For years this city has been infested by a gang of thieves, who have done their work Rosone ly and reaped a rich harvest, and while de- tectives have been called in nothing has ever come of their efforts. Rev. Carter was robbed Thursday night of $505 which he had secreted in an old trunk. AN INDIAN DEFAULTER. Ext Reno, O.

THE WONDERFUL PROCESS WHICH WAS LOST AND FOUND AGAIN, Venice, July 7.—Venetian glass differs from other manufacturesof glass, being en- tirely Dlown and not molded, consequently the making is nota mere manufacture buta real art and the menemployed are skilled ar- tists. We all know that the artof Venetian glass blowing, like that of mosaic, was practically lost, and it is wholly owing to the energy and researches of Dr. A. Salviatithat we owe its revival. The present workers in the Saiviati establishment are the descendants of the ol Muranese artists of some centuries ago. The glass is not actually made in Venice but In the island of Murano, its ancient seat. Murano is a small island about a mile distant from Venice, reached in halfan hour’s row- ing in a gondola. Venice, however, being the chiefcity of Veneto, gave her name to thisart. It is supposed that this particular island was chosen for the purpose of giass making, owingtothe peculiar nature of the sand on its shores; the island is washed bya northwest current of the Adriatic, and the bed of the sea in its neighborhood is largely composed of quartz, or silica, brought down by the torrents from the Alps. This sand ts one of the most important factors inthe manufacture of Venetian glass. A great variety of giass is now made a Murano: ‘‘ritorto,’’ which is a colored stripe on plain ground; ‘‘flamma,’’ a mixture of many colors—so named from the resemblance to fame; ‘‘reticello,’’ which represents dell- cate lace patterns; ‘‘avventurina,’’ looking like brilliant gold; the ‘*festoncino,’’ having the appearance of threads inserted in the ground;the ‘‘chalcedony,’’ seeming as its name signifies, like stone or marble, and others. These various styles of glass are all of different compositions, each requiring a different treatment, many of them needing several days in preparation. The tools used by the artists are few and simpie; a long hollow tube of iron for blow- ing, a large pair of scissors for cutting (simi- lar to those used by sailors),a few instru- ments for measuring, anda stamp with a strawberry shaped die. These form nearly all the tools used, even to produce the most elaborate designs. Naturally, precision of eye ald steadiness of band are indispensa- bie. A vase or other article is produced thas: The ends of the iron tube (calledthe blowing rod) are dipped into a pot containing the mol- ten glass to be used, and a portion of it gath- ered on its end; the quantity neeaful for the article to be made is determined by the artist, and is accurately judged by him. It is essen- tial that the quantity should be correct, be it for a large lazza oratiny liquor glass, as should the quantity be insufficient for the ar- ticle the time would be all lost andthe work would bave to be begun again;should there be too much the article would be coarse, thick, heavy and, consequently, useless, Having the right amount the lump of molten glass is dexteroustly rolled a few times on atable;itisthen slightly blown by the artist, after whichitis reheated inthe furnace. This process is repeated again and again, each time the article taking more def- inite form, untilfinally the lump of giass is transformed into a vase or other article. During the whole of these operationsthe ar- tist must standin front of the mouthof the furnace, as the material mustbe kept ina soft condition until the completionof the work. Many forms call for several operations. If the artist proposes to make a vase he pro: ceeds to shape the body by the process already described. He is assisted in this case by a less skillful workman, who blows the vase, which, being simpler, does not need the services of a first-tlass artist. The body being thus made ready at the same time as the base the artist proceeds by a sharp push and twist to join’ the two parts together, after which the vase Is placed in the furnace. The maestro, or chief artist, then proceeds to ornament it with leaves, flowers and ber- ries, between each operation (every time a leaf or flower is added to the vase) it is again put into the furnace in order to keep It softand malleable. Venetian glass-blowing is by no means a rapid process. , It is quite astonishing to see the number. less decorations produced by the simple tools used; there are dragons, serpents, sea horses of ex quisite proportions, swans, flow- ers, grasses, leaves, etc., nothing is too simple, nothing is too compli- cated, from the lion to the butter- fly, one and all are modeled by these simple instruments. The time occupied in producing an article varies ac- cording to the subject and the elaborateness of the decoration; some articles require the services of four artists at the same time, and for several hours; others can be made In afew minutes by one man, The process of blowing, already described, is applicable to self colors only, such as ruby, acqua marina,etc. Whenthe object is to be made ofthe richerand more elaborate kinds of glass, as reticello, ritorto, filagree, etc., then the process is considerably more difil- cult and requires from one to three days. These variously colored glasses are pre- pared in long strips called ‘‘cauna;’’ the outside covering is composed of a film of clear glass, the colors in the center. These strips of ‘‘cauna’’ are placed side by side on asheet of iron, which is then put into the furnace, andasthe strips melt they adhere to each other. The artist then takes his rod, attached to which is a lump of half liquid glass, presses it against the ends and, giving a dextrous twist, winds the whole mass to- gether in the shape of acylinder. It is then introduced into a pot of clear glass and slightly coated withit, This isto preserve and protect the delicate lace work or striping of the colored glass. The artist then proceeds to manipu- late the whole mass on the marver (as the little iron he uses iscalled). When by repeated heating, blowing and rolling the mass is sufficiently prepared, he cuts off a piece of the size required for the object con- templated, being careful to see that all the cauna are regular and equally joined. This lump of colored and patterned glass is then blown into vases, another article in the same manny as the plain glass. The pattern which tn the cauna was to the unpracticed eye an unrecognizable mass, is now fully de- veloped into a most lovely lace or thread de- sign. If during the process no bursting move- ment has been given, the pattern will be in straight regular lines, ifonthe contrary the artist has given a twisting turn to the mass, the lines will have the spifal effect seen so frequently in articles of Venetian glass, The flagree is prepared by inserting minute | threadiixe strips, either white or colored, between two fine sheets ofclear giass; some- times these threads are crossed and tiny air bubbies are imprisoned within them, when the effect is more beautiful. The ‘‘flamma’’ is thus prepared: Upon a hollowed and previously rolled lump of } material strips of colored glass are laid, to- gether with strips ofa venturina, which are to produce the effect of flames; these are wound round spirally. The mass is then placed in an oven and before the fusion is very far advanced, a sharp edged picce of iron is drawn several times across it, pro- ducing ridges both ways of the mass, which then grndually amalgamates into one piece; this is afterwards twisted and manipulated to give it the required consistency. The millefions’’ is made bya very lengthy process. First the artist prepares several strips of a certain pattern, according to his instructions or his individual taste; these strips are cut up into lozenge-shaped pieces and encased in films of clear giasss; these pieces are then laid on surface of giass of the color required to form the article in con- templution. The whole is then heated, after which it is blown and given its desired form, developing asit proceeds the pattern con- tained in the imprisoned lozenges, which vary, being sometimes birds, insects, ani- mais, and even portraits, which are distrib- uted all over the vase or other article. A portrait, as may be imagined, means a very dificult and delicate subject. Itis pro- duced by the artist taking a number of tiny thread-like cauna of the necessary tints and placing them together somewhat as mosaic ismade. When thus arranged, they are cov- ered by a thin film of clear giass, which servesto protect and heip them in order, The mass thus prepared is then placed in the furnace and two artists stand ready and watchful, each being provided with an iron tube having on its end a ~»piece of molten giass (erystal).. At the right moment, when the mass is ready, each one takes anend on his tube, and moving in opposite directions they stretch the cauna until it becomes a long, slender, round strip; thisisthen cut up into pieces and used as previously stated. The artist must be most watchful in this process, as if the mass stops too longin the furnace the various thread~ like pleces of which it is composed are dis- solved and run into one another. AV venturina is a preparation of metal, produced by fusing various component parts. It is made by a most difficult and tedious process, which is very uncertain in its re- sults, atmospheric influence having much effect uponit. The process is known to only one or two of the maestri, who keep the secret. Av venturina is much used in Vene- tian glass, giving a lovely and brilliant effect. Itis used alsointhe manufacture of jewelry—then being cut and polished. As might be expected, the Venetian glass blowers are all skilled in the art of drawing, indeed it was one of their first studies. F. H. ANDERSON, Religious Notes. John H.

WHO INVENTED KISSING! Some Say It Means ‘‘Taste,’’ Others Say **the Union of Souls. ”’ From the Boston Globe. The word ‘‘kiss’’ is Anglo-Saxon, and may, indeed, be taken as an instance of how pleas- ant Anglo-Saxon can be. The philologist as- sures us that it is allied to the Gothic ‘*kustus,’’ a proofor test, and to the Latin ‘‘eustus,’’ a taste; which suggests the old saying, that ‘‘the proof of the pudding is in the preein’ o’t.’’ That same Gothic kustus comes from the verdD Kiusan, to choose, from which one would imagine that among the Goths Kissing went by favor. According to Prof, 8keat, writing with all the austerity and scholarshipofan expert, a kiss is ‘‘a gust, a taste, a sometning choice.’’ Rowena, the beautiful daughter of the taxon Hengist,is credited with having introduced kissing in these fortunate islands; but it seems as if that, had the natives been so utterly unenligntened, the Romans could scarcely have tailed to anticipate her. & The Romans had really a delightful word for a kiss—osculum, which came from os, the mouth, and meanta little mouth, a sweet mouth. ‘Give me a sweet little mouth’’ would be the phrase used whena good little Roman boy asked his motber for a kiss. Our English word occurs pretty nearly in its present form in Anglo-Saxon, Dutch, Ice- lanaic, Danish, Swedish and German. And this is worthy of note, because natural as seem to be, itis a practice un- and le of ‘‘ghost’’ is a **gust’’—which possibly accounts for the cold air that fs said to accompany apparitions. If, then, the breath was a divine thing—the goul and spirit of man—is it not easy to un- derstand how naturally kissing came to bea wore commusion, & commingling of soul w sou Wanted, an Honest Man. That ancient worthy who was out with his lantern, searching for an honest man, had he lived in ourday, would have been saved biglaborand disappointment, by inserting an ad. in the Sunpar Post-DisrpaTom. it | THE FIRST MEN. A RECORD OF SOME OF THOSE WHO HAVE GIVEN THE WORLD NEW IDEAS. W ritten for the SuNDay Post-DisraTcu. Every age and generation since man began to live onearth has produced one or more record breakers, The first person to doa thing, from that very fact, becomes a note- worthy individual and setsupa standard by which the achievements of all his successors may be measured. He may for ages remain by reason of his priority the most dis- tinguished performer of that particular action orachievement. History is full of the names of these pioneers in human effort; their names have become household words. Every school boy Is taught that Archimedes discovered the lever, Guttenberg was the first printer, Cadmus the first inventor of written characters, Fulton the first to apply steamto locomotion on water, Watts the originator of steam as an agent in locomotion by land; Montgolfier, the first aeronaut—at least the first well authenticat- ed navigator ofthe air; Morse the first tel- egrapher. And the ist is a much longer one. The probabilities are that the majority of these record makers in human history were not considered by their neighbors and friends or by their contemporaries in general as men capable ofor who had performed anything particularly wonderful or worthy of human gratitude and remembrance. In the same way the ‘‘first’’ man ofto-day may in some localities at least be living and toiling with- out raising a ripple on the human current; so that posterity will have to discover the name and fame of many whowould even now, were they known, be esteemed record breakers in this last decade of the nine- teenth century. Scipio Africanus, one of the most famous of theiwarriors of ancient Rome,a general, a scholar and a statesman besides, is said to have been the first clean-shaven Roman. | first demonstrated that a locomotive could pull railroad cars up a grade. Salomon de Causisley may be considered to have had the first idea of propeliing boats by steam, in1615. William Kelly of Pennsylva- nia put asmall boat on the Conestoga River in 1763. W. N. Gardner of ‘Virginia raised over the Custom-house in Richmond the first Confederate flag hoisted in the Old Domin- ion. : The Prince de Ligne, who represented King Louis XVIII of France at the Congress of Vienna in 1814, saw peopje dancing in a new style one night at the Sperl, a famous Vienna dance hall. This was the waltz, and it soon became known in Europe by that name. The first discoverers of America are sup- posed to have been Buddhist monks from China, who landed on the western coast in the summer of 422. A. D. Lieut, Meigs, U. 8. A., son of Gen. Melgs, is declared tohave first used the armored raflway car in warfare in 1863, on the B, & O, Railroad. William Ramsey invented the side-wheel boat. A ‘‘side-wheel row-boat’’ bullt by him attracted a great deal of attention at Fort Pitt (Pittsburg) in 1761. There were treadles for the feet. In 1688 Mennonites in Pennsylvania made the first protest against negro slavery. James Lowrie, a Scotchman, set up the first Brussels carpet loom in the United States. The first Yankee clockmaker was Eli Terry, who began to make clocks in Connecticut in 1798. Terryville is to celebrate the event in Abraham Lincoln earned his first dollat when he was 18 by raftingsome trunks our to a steamer in the Mississippi. Aristotle was the first writer on physiog- nomy whose works have come down. The Apostie John is said to have been the ‘first ancient and the Cardinal Borromeo the first modern Sunday-school teacher, Timothy B, Blackstone, 80 years President of the Chicago & Alton Railroad, is said to be the only railroad President in the world who owns a majority of the shares of the stock of his road. The only minor known to be In command of a government vesselis William Barry, who is Captain of the United States government No wonder he was popular with all young launch Ellis Island,which plies between New t . f =) -? ‘Sy iy ed i’ ? 1 yun ¢ : a | a v*4 _ _ = tf > eA ey ae ft aD $ > 1° ’ ' /eet) me i } ; il : | i i Fat . led od ‘ 7 ¥ a ’ di f : r f ; >- A House Made of Copper. men; were there no other reason for it his name would no doubt figurein history. For in the days of the early Roman civilization the beard was a badge, if not exactly of ser- vitude, at least of something approaching barbarism. Just as the attendants in the best regulated places of public resort to-day are required to wear clean-shaven faces, so the slaves inthe Gays of Scipio were com- manded to wear beards and it had within a short time becometo that extent a mark of degradation. THE FIRST MAN TO MAKE SHOT was named Watts, though there is no evi- dence that he was in any way related tothe inventor of the steamengine. The curious part of the story of the discovery of the method now in use of making perfectly globular missiles of lead is that one evening, after having spent several hours at a social gathering where his companions, at least, drank too much wine,he managed to find his way home to bed and immediately fell intoa deep sleep, in the course of which he dreamed that he was again out in the street with his late comrades and that it was raln- ing, not rain drops, but spheres of molten lead. In the morning he began to wonder what shape molten lead would take if dropped through the airand he finally climbed to the top of the steeple of the church of St. Mary at Redcliff, London, melted a ladleful of lead and threw it to the moat below. When he ran down and gathered the particles from the bottom of the moat, which was quite shallow, he found that his dream had come true. And hence the shot tower. THE FIRST ACTOR TO BE KNIGHTED. The first professional actor to receive what is generally styled the honor of knighthood was Atgustus Harris, not only an actor, but M. De Montgoifte, the manager of the Drury Lane Theater in London, and often spoken of as ‘Augustus Druriolanus.’’ Queen Victoria conferred his title upon him in the summer of 1891. The first sea captain to take a whaleback steamer across the ocean from Duluth through the lakes to Liverpool was named Saunders and his vessel was the Charies W. Wetmore. Capt. Saunders made his first voyage in 1891 and soun afterward died on hisship in Liverpool from heart disease, supposed to have been aggravated by his heroic rescue of a castaway the day before. The first discoverer of the diamund Is said to have been a Hindoo named Hakim Fez. Certain it is that the diamond first began to be valued in Hindostan. For centuries the mines of Golconda were the only ones known, but in 1728 the diamond mines of Brazil were discovered ana in 1968 the famous South Afri. can diamond mines were opened up for the first time. The first steel] made in the United States was in: 1728 by Samuel Higley of Simsbury, Cofin., and John Dewey Me Hebron, Conn. They got a ten-year patent. Thimbles, found in the ruins of Hercula- noum, were introduced by Johm Softing into England in ; The first thentrieal company to plays in America so far as Known came Eng- land tn 1752 arid landed at York, Va., playing at Williamsburg, Va, . 6, 1762, and giving ‘‘Sterne’s York City and Ellis Islandinthe bay. During the two years of hiscommand hehbas never hadan accident, it is said, and bas saved four persons from drowning. The only traveler of his years who ever at- tained such celebrity and received one of the | gold medals, two of which are awarded each year by the Royal Geographical Soclety to the most distinguished explorers, is Capt. F. E. Younghusband, the daring English- man whose experiences on the frontier of Pamir became in the fall of 1891 an international issue. Capt. Younghusband was only 24 years of age whenthe rumor arose that he had been killed in Pamir on that im- mense plateau 10,000 feet above the sea level, adjoining the borders of Russia and China, which, on account of its desolate elevation and the wild characterof its roaming inhab- itan ts, who pay no allegiance to\any Govern- ment, has been cagied the ‘‘roof of the world.’’ The only genuine millionaire’ socialist in existence is said to be Henry Gaylord Wil- shire, anerratic American who spends his time journeying over the American conti- nent, enjoying himself allthe while strictly within socialistic limits, Mr, Wilshire’s creed is said to include community of family as welf as property. The only American and perhaps the only man in the world who lives ina house of copper is an iron manufacturer named N., Poulson, whose unique residence stands at the corner of Eighty-ninth street and the Shore road in South Brooklyn. -From its metalic porticos there is asplendid view of the city and the bay and of the Narrows through which the great trans-Atlantic fleet of passenger steamers may be seen daily passing in magnificent procession. The frame work of the houseisof steel, as are the rafters, girders, joists and posts. The restis copper. Mr, Poulson’s idea is said to have been an absolutely filre-proof house and itis reasonably certain that he has ono. The only man in the United States who ever received a check for more than a quar- ter of a million of dollars for legal services covering a period of less than six weeks was Willlam Nelson Cromwell of New York city. As assignee of Decker, Howell & Co., the bankers and brokers who suspended payment during the panic in Wall street ifn the tall of 1890, Mr. Cromwell, by his en- ergy, industry and tact so handled the assets of that concern to more than satisfy its creditors and all those with whom he was brought in professional contact. In addi- tion to his fee of $7,222.16a day he received a solid silver dinner service. The only man who knew the secretof dye- ing fast black as practiced in an extensive manufacturing concern at Sterling, N. Y., was James Pike, who died suddenly of apo- plexy in August, 1890, and took the secret out of the world with him. The first American to erect a smokeless powder factory was J. W. Olen of New York, who put up thirteen buildings forthat pur- pose on the Ritz farm in Wayne County, West Virginia, 1890. The only animal in the known world which on the approach of dissolution seeks out the general burying ground of its species and there digs its own grave and lies down to dle, is the huanaco, found in the valleys of the Santa Cruzand Gallegos, in Patagonia, Dar.- win and Fitzroy, the celebrated naturalists, have both made mention of this strange fact. The only bridegroom on record who ever took his blushing spouse on a wedding tour to the Arctic regions was Royal Carroll of New York, whose steam yacht, on which tho wedding journey was made, was seon in August, 1891, off Point Belcher, Alaska, 4 deg. inside the Arctic circle. The first woman to appear on the streets of Boston in the ‘‘mudless gown’’ was Mrs..M. BE. 8. Ingersoll, in October, 1991, It was a variety of the bloomer costume, The first man to appear on the streets of London with an umbrella was Jonas Han- way. ¢ THE FIRST THIMELE ever seen in England was Made in Londona little less than 200 years ago by a metal worker named John Lofting.

Miss Bon Voyage stood before her cabinet exhibition with innocent pride, the minerals and relics she had picked up during her trav- els. Miss Western stood beside her, feeling distinctly bored and making an effort to con- cealit. In one hand she helda small mocca- sin made of white kid and ornamented In the highest style of Indian art with gorgeous Dlue | quills. The mate of this she took from a shelf and held silently before her hostess, who was also begi nning to be oppressed by the situg tion, but whose eyes brightened at sight o the little Indian shoe, Catching her guest around the waist she whirled her across the room, Seated her among the nest of pillows on a great divan, placed the moccasins side by side on a tiny stand before her and ex- Claimed dramatically: ‘‘Thuse are the moc- casins made formeand given to me by Wan- dering Spirit.’’ **Wandering Spirit wasa beautiful Indian young woman on the divan. ‘*Er—no—not exactiy,’’ admitted Miss Bon Voyage, whose high regard for truth some- times interfered with the interest of her stories,’’ but she was an interesting maiden, and thereby bangsatale. Is there room for me here, too? Thanks. ‘*I thought when I first saw Wandering Spirit that she was one of the most un- attractive young women I had met. She lived in an Indian village near Quebec and the womea of her tribe mace birch bark canoes and moccasins and sold them to tour- ists. The men looked on and rested. All of them were horribly dirty and Wandering Spirit, who might have been any age from 16 to 25, used to fail heir to the blankets and worn-out finery of herelders, I rode over to the village every day or two and the simple child of nature became interested first in my hat and finally, as I modestly fancied, in me. **She spoke English with great fluency and with much originality of pronunciation. As the weeks passed she began totake more in- terest in her appearance, and I inferred from achance remark or two that she even in- duiged in an occasional bath. She combed her hair regularly, appeared in brilliant new moccasins and once, to my horror, she came sauntering into the hotel ia Quebec with severai hideous ‘frizzes’ on her forehead. She had cut her front hair and created a startling imitation of the ‘Langtry baug.’ **Wandering Spirit and-I became rather close chumsina way. She went with me on allmy botaniziug expeditions, and as she knew the country for miles around she wasa Capital guide. We had several adventures to- gether, which strengthened this friendly bond, Once we were caught in a terrible storm and had tospenu the nightin a peas- ant’s Cottage, and again I stayed all night with her in the Indian village, because I wanteiito have the experience. (I don’t mind mentioning right here that 1 do not waht it again.) *‘Oh, dear, 1 hope Wandering Spirit won’t die,’’ interrupted Miss Western. Miss Bon Voyage surveyed her disapprov ingly. *‘Of course she didn’t die,’’ she replied with much sternness. ‘*She did worse than that. She married. There was a young Canadian livingat the same hotel where I was. He was a tourist also; had just gradu- atedat Moatrealand started out to see the world. Imethimon the steamer going to Quebec and he made himself useful. iis de- sire to see the world evaporated in Quebec. He lingered there, pouring the tale of his hopes and ambitions into my sympathetic leftear. He was unpractical, visionary and full of all sort of promise which is go rarely fullilled. This young man was just the youth to fall in love with Wandering Spirit and he promptly pro- ceeded to doit, or to imagine that he had done it. Whathe was pleased to call the romance and pathos of her position appealed tohim, When she begun to wear some of the old dresses Il gave her she really looked al- most pretty,and when she appeared in bangs hig sbjugation was complete. He thought he saw in all this ‘the pitiful groping of a human soul;’ even the burnt ‘frizzes’ were touching in his eyes. He finaily decided that he would put Wandering Spirit intoaconvent and educate her. He even intimated thatafter four or itive yoars he might marry herand take her home to his ‘ancestral halls.” Wandering Spirit in the meantime paid very littie atteniloa to him. She hardly seemed to understand this humble young man who begged to go with us on our excursions and who asked no greater happi- ness than to carry hampers and open pickle bottles. She was usedto the haughty spirit of the red man, who le! these menial details to her. **Atlast he confided to me that he was g0ing to enlighten Wandering Spirit as to her future, to tell her the plans he had made for her. Iknew he would never marry her, but I thought he might as well settle the matter with Wandering Spirit without delay—sol gave them the opportunity one warm after- noon, when we had driven far out in the country. After lunch I got into my ham- mock, announced my intentions of not mov- ing for one hour, and sent them off together for some specimens. ‘*They were gone along time, It was fully an hour and a half before they returned, She was walking in advance of him, and very rapidly.

I sat upin my hammock ang stared at the Tourist, He looked back at me half defantiy:he was equaltothe occasion after all, ‘She has re- fused the education and she has refused me,’ he said frankly, ‘and she’s howling mad! the bargain.

The politics in the Homestead affair is clearly brought out in the formal state- ment of the position of the locked-out men with reference to their difficulty with the mill owners. Passing by their general assertion of the rights of labor which is based upon the principles enunciated in Senator Palmer’s speech, the core of the political element in the controversy is touched in thé special demand for fair treatment from the Carnegie Co. This is grounded upon the special favors the Government has granted to the Carnegie industry. ‘‘In addition to the ordinary gifts and advantages of our Government,’’ say the workingmen, ‘‘the National Legislature has seen fit to specially foster and protect by public tax- ation the industry of these mills.’’ They demand, therefore, ‘the assertion of the principle that the publi¢t has an interest in such concerns as that at Homestead, and that the State hasa duty (right?) to judge the affairs of such concerns when occasion may require.’’ Both the sham of protection and the monstrous errot it embodies are exposed in this claim. The public is taxed to give the favored capitalists big profits and their employes high wages. But the favored capitalists screw down their employes to the lowest notch and, as shown in the Homestead affair, attempt to hog all the benefits. Under the theory of protection the de- mand of the workingmen that the State interfere to stop thisand force the capi- talist to share protective benefits with the workingmen is just and proper. The lat- ter mérely ask fora fair division of the ‘*swag’’ taken from the whole people. Compulsory profit-sharing and the State reguiation of wages in favored industries are the logical concomitants of protection. But the fair division of the swag does not justify robbery and the people of this country may well stand aghast at the ex- posure of the huge swindles perpetrated in the name of protection and the vista of paternalism it opens. The only safety for the people lies in Sweeping and keeping politics clear of private interests. af No ‘‘swag’’ for anyone is a sound Dem- ocratic platform. Pat EGAN has distinguished himself again. This time he is accused of some- thing very like forgery. W. R. Grace & Co. were requested to transport the body of one of the sailors killed at Valparaiso to New York. It was necessary to ask permission of the Chilian Government to exhume the body, and go through other formalities by petition. This the firm refused to do, but asked Mc- Creery, the Consul, to act in the matter. Egan then took up the matter, and, a few days after, the officials notified Grace that his petition had been granted. Where- upon Grace informed them that he had filed no petition, and asked Egan for an expignation. The more that is known of this adventurer the worse he appears. And in keeping him ina posi- tion where he can do infinite mischief President Harrison makes himself responsi- ble for his acts and lowers himself to his level. —— Or A SAD thing has come passin Maryland. A tin-plate mill was burned afew weeks ago, involving the loss of afew thousand dollars. The firm had previously stated that the amount invested was several hun- dred thousand, but this was for political purposes only, to make the showing re- quired by the McKinley law. To make things worse the men are on a strike. Like the Homestead menthey want a larger share of the swag procured by form of law from the consumer. Their demands are scorned anda labor war is inaugurated. There are only seventy-five men but troops will probably be needed after the Pinker- tons have been tried for a while. Trt Indianapolis Sentinel tells a queer story about an American manufacturer offering to sell steel railsin India. It is given on the authority of the chief en- gineer of the Indian railway which ad- vyertised for bids. The lowest received for seventy-pound steel rails laid down in India was $22.50 per ton, and strangely enough it was from ANDREW CARNEGIE. These raile sellin America for $80. Of course combines protected by the law have often sold in foreign markets cheaper than in their own, showing the enormous profits made out of gullible Americans. n— Tum Anarchist plot unearthed by the Paris police is probably the product of of- ficial imagination. No doubt the Mosts and Ravachols are doing some talking and think they are plotting, but experience shows that their plots come to nought in almost every instance, apparently because there is not enough intelligence among them. Anarchist outrages are, as a rule, acts of individual madness, the result of too much brooding over real or fancied wrongs. They are seldom the conclusion of an organized and carefully thought-out oe —— It may be put down as analmost absolute certainty that Nebraska is no longer a Re- publican State.

If eommon sénse dictates party programmes in the State fusion in some form will be adopted. It is suite to defeat the Harrison électors., " It is fot worth while to discuss the question whether OCarnuet# or FRIOK is responsible for the Homestead murders, although of course Whén the Pinkerton question comes before the Pennsylvania authorities both those men may have something to answer for. The original re. sponsibility rests with the party which grants privileges which enable individuals to monopolize all the opportunities of labor and appropriate all the fruits of in- dustry. , Y Speculation and Prices. From the Chicago Herald, During the civil War our statesmen in Wash- ington imagined that it was speculation in futures that reduced the gold value of green- backs. Therefore they undertook to sup- press that speculation by law. It took just about a week of experience under the law to | convines them of their mistake, and just fif- teen days to repealthe law. The statesmen now in Washington imagine that it is specu- lation in futures that depresses the prices of cotton, whéat and some other things. There- fore they propose to follow the example of the statesmen of 1964 and try to suppress this speculation by law. Long before they have a chance to repeal their -pro- posed law they will be likely to learn that laws against speculation work only muis- chief. They will be likely to learn that &pec- ulation isnot the cause of low prices any more than betting on the appearance ofa comet is the cause ofthe appearance of that erratic heavenly body. It may dawn upon them, while speculation thrives upon ex- traordinary conditions affecting prices, it Is notand cannot be the Catse of those condl- tions. By that time they may be sorry they passed the Watchburn-Hatch monstrosity even for campaign purposes, If farmers are fools enough to want this legislation they are not fools enough to reward statesmen for be- ing as great fools as theniselves. No Relisi to the People. From the New York WORLD. The Republicans of the Senate have pigeon- holed all the bills passed by the Democratic House for the reduction of oppressive tariff taxes. This is the contemptuous answer of the agents of Triumphant Plutocracy to the de- mand of the people for relief. ‘*You are fools—you don’t know what you want—change your minds!’’—this is the Re- publican reply to the popular majority of 1,300,000 against the new tariff of abomina- tions. The people will have another chance in No- vember to tellthe faithless and Impudent servants what they think of their action. The issue is simplified tothis: ‘‘Shall the will of the people be obeyed?’’ No Free Speech. From the Louisville Courier-Journal. Even freedom of speech has been suppressed in Pennsylvania’s Homestead. To this high tariff complexion has it come at last. THE PEOPLE’S FORUM (No matter written on voth sides of the sheet can appear under this head.—D. | A Monopoly Measure. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: The article in the Post-DispPpatcnu of the 20th inst., approving the anti-option bill signed **Merchant’’ is very one-sided and specious, and I should like a wordinreply. If this bill passes, the poor farmer will be between the devil and the deep, deepsea. He wiil surely ask to be saved from his so-called friends, The advocates of this bill are those pure white souls who have been chastened and purified and come out of great tribulation. No thief ever felt the halter draw with good opinion of the law. His argument is all about short selling, but not a word about long buying, and the monotonous song all these advocates sing is the same, the wicked ‘*short seller.’’ Never a chirp, however, about the long buyer. withouta buyer, and can’t buyers put up prices just as well as sellers depress them ?j The fact is itis a constant battle royal be- tween these opposing factions, and as they are evenly matched victory is as HkKely to perch on one banner as the other. Does competition advance or depress values? Shorts as frequently oversell themselves as buyers overbuy. The present price of July wheat is some 5 cents above August, because of miscalculation over confidence as tore- ceipts, which have been delayed by rains, and anxiety of shorts, or wind-sellers, ac- cording to ‘*Merchant,’’ to cover their short sales with wheat, as compelled todo by the rules of our Exchange. If this billis not malicious, oppressive, in- quisitorial and generally pernicious and anti-American in spirit, what is or can be? It is too centralizing, too paternal. Ifoption trading Is illegal, where are our courts and police officers? Whatuse have we for State or city government? Our National Congress will next be asked to pass a prohibitive law, to legislate on cigarettes, on our food, drink and clothes and, gree gy & religion. The farmers are not united in asking for this legislation by ahy means. Even it they were, it would be no conclusive argument. The Jews thought they were right when they crucified Christ andthe church when it com- pelled Galileo to recant. What right has a buyerto ask me, a seller, ifIl have the goods to Geliver, if my contract is good, and lam responsible? That is all he nee know. Don’t builders mgke contracts while the lumber an brick are still in the forest ang ground? The milk man _ sell his tickets before, the grass is grown or eaten by his cows. Réal estate dealers, coal dealers, dry goods, boots and shoes, etc., a'l sell without ownlng the goods, but witha moral = ae they can getthem to fill their sales with. The self-sacrifice of these syndicate millers and pork packers is enough to make both’ gods and men weep. They wish to advance the price of wheat and hogs so farmers Will be profited thereby. Since time began was ever such disinterestedness Known as a buyer of anything wanting it tocost him more and Seking legislation to advance prices on him. self? Future trading was not practical in a prim. itive state of society. Itisa matter of evo. lution, anmatural necessary growth and de- velopment. Our vast agricultural product, improved farming machinery, railroads, tel- egraphs, elevators and graded bulk grain make it a necessity. Then it was devised and has grown to its present con- ditions. They cannot exist one without the other. A prohibitory law would do vast mischief, first to the farmer, then to the railroads and telegraph companies, depre- ciate land values, affecting all i:terests dis- astrously, bankers, merchants and others, even Congressmen would suffer, as all in- terests are interdependent.

The differences of opinion steadies markets, and soon, if information is corroborated, prices adjust themselves to the new situation as water finds its true level. Without future trading, country dealers, country bankers and mercliants would soon be tied up and business generally paralyzed, It would mean at least 10 cents per bushel on wheat, 5 cents on corn and oats anid icent on hogs, cotton and loss to the farmer and planter. City banks and capi- talists and country shippers would have to require larger margins, much larger than now, to protect themselves, as they could not then realize promptiy, as at present on any sort of produce sold for future delivery. PHILIP SHIRMER. Annsxing Taxpayers. To the Editor of the Post-Disnatch: . The Post-Disparcn of the 17th inst. con- tains a map andthe outlines of a pian for a proposed extension of the limits of the city of St, Louls forthe purpose of ‘‘increasing the revenue’’ of the city. The proposition is simply terrible. To transform, at one fell swoop, 50,000 unsophisticated, homogeneous, peaceful, contented ruralists into as many antagonistic, inharmonious, incongruous contentious, belligerent members Oo **de push’’ or ‘*de pull’? of the Democratic peesactnn or into Hoodlums or Slik Stockings of the Republican faith would be an act calculated to make humani- tarians and philanthropists shudder. The only, or, at least, the most striking modern parallel to this proposition which history affords was the sudden conversion by the coup d@’etat of Napoleon III. of some 30,- 000,000 of free citizens of the French Republic of 1848 intoan equal number of subjects of an Emperor. But, seriously: Is the project feasible? If feasible and desirable is it Just and equita- ble? The city of St. Louis and &t. uis County, as is well khown, are separate and distinct, having clearly defined limits and boundanNes; and the iawsand regulations of the one have no jurisdiction or authority whatever over the citizens of the other. Has the city of St. Louls, under existing circum- stances, any power or authority to extend its limits in any direction? Would St. Louis county be willing to surrendér so large a slice ofits territory? Sucha great number of its population? S5ucha large proportion of its revenue? Would the inhabitants of the ter- ritory proposes to be annexed consent to be made partand parcel of the City of St. Louis simply for the privilege of contributing to the city’s finances? Supposing these ques- tions affirmatively answered, would the de- sired object (the increase of the revenue over expenditures) be accomplished by extending the imits. The perp extension, if ac- complished,would add several hundred miles of streets to the city which would have to be graded, paved, lighted, patrolled. If would add very materially to the expenses of the city in many other ways which will readily resent themselves to the reader. Would not he anticipated increase in the city’s reve- nue (say $500,000 per annum) be wholly ab- eke y the necessary increase in expendi- ures, : Aggin, supposing all the ahs ee tionssatisfactorily answered and al egal obstructions removed, would it be right, would it be just, for the 600,000 or 600,000 in- habitants of St. Louis, as at present consti. tuted, to absorb the 50,000 citizens of St. Louis County who reside on territory con- tiguous to the city, simply to increase the revenue of the city? Would it not be just about as honorable for the city authorities to send out a body of men to levy contributions vi et armis from the citizens of the surround- ing country, after the Manner of the oid feudal robbers ef Kurope? Suppose the situation reversed. Suppose that St. Louis County should need an increase of revenue (it is ho far fetched supposition with regard to many Counties of Missouri) and propose to extend its jurisdiction, its limits or its taxing power either into the city of St. Louis or into any adjoining county. The proposition need only to be mentioned to show its absurdity. RUSTIC. ues - Social Wroti¢gs ahd Sitigie Tax. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: A few months ago the Lord of Cluny Castle informed the people ofthis and other coun- triesthat ‘‘it isn’t the man who does the work who makes the money; it’s the man who gets other men to do lt.’’ As an expert in ‘‘addition, division and silence,’’ Mr. Carnegie’s outburst of telling the truth at least once in his life des®rves special attention. My lord is right, but to get the other men todothe work it requires something more than ordinary mental powers. The only way the Kari of Homestead could get others to do the work for him was by obtaining special privileges. One of these privileges he ob- ee y gotting possession of va luable coal elds. Like the shrewd Yankee Who gave a num- ber of negroes one-half of the driftwood that did not belong to him if they would pull it out of the Mississippi for him, ‘Mr, Carnegie kindly allows the miners to dig coal for him on sharés, This gave him control of the min- ers. Tofurther prove that Democracy Is tri- umphant in this country, he bada very high duty placed on steel rails, and by thissleight- of-hand operation he was enabled to cbarge his Democratic brethren a good deal more per ton of rails thanthey could be bought for elsewhere. By these artifices, and without working himself, he made milifons by getting, or rather permitting, other men to do the work. Mr. Carnegie is not at all to blame if he takes advantage of us. By giving him the special privilege of oteupying some of the choicest rooms in our father’s house without return- ing an equivalent, who will now deny him under present social conditions the right to claim the rooms as hisown? Mr. Carnegie has great executive abilities, and if they were applied in the right direction he would become a useful member of society. Let us abolish the robber tariff and put the taxes where they properly belong, and neither Mr, Carnegie nor any other man will amass a fortune unless he worksforit. UNCLE Tom. Police Insolence. To the Editor of the Post- Disppich: Would you kindly publish the following: Parties desiring to remain for a few moments onthe Grand avenue suspension bridge are prevented from doing so by an insulting member of the police force who patrols that eat. Thursday evening about 9:30 I was standing on the aforesaid bridge with a lady friend when an officer came up and in the most in- sulting manner requested us to move on.

Attorney Marshall McDonald Placed in the Holdover. OO Committed for Twenty-four Hours by Police Judge Morris. THE LAWYER SENTENCED ON A CHARGE OF CONTEMPT OF COURT. He Insisted on Asking a Question After It Had Been Objected To and the Ob- jection Stistained by the Court-—The Attorney Jerked Out of His Chair While Defending Nina Warshall, a Disreputable Woman, and Hustled Off to tho Lock-Up—He Wanted the Names of Men Who Visited Her Place. Marshall F. McDonald, the attorney, was fined $10 by Judge Morris of the First District Police Court this morning and committed to the holdover of tlie calaboosé at the Four Courts for twenty-four hours fot contempt of court. The ordér was miadé to take effect at once in the middie of the trial of Nina 5 ar- shall, a disreputable woman, whom Mc- Donald was defending, and as the attorney objected to going, he was jerked out of his chai¥ by Sergt. Williams and an officer of the Police Department and taken out of the room and down stairs by force and after being searched Was led off tothe sweat box and locked tip. Nina Marshall, whose case was on trial, is charged with keeping a house of ill-fame at No. 1812 Pine street. She and her wonien were taken from the house last Thursday night without being given time to dress ex- cepttothrow their wrappers about them, They were taken in the hoodlum wagon to the Four Courts, locked upand bail refused them, This, at least, isthe charge made by the women and their attorney. SAID IT WAS PERSECUTION. When their cases were called in the First District Police Couft yesterday Mr. McDon- ald stated that hé was going to put an end to the arrest of Miss Marshall and her women by showing tn court, ifhe were permitted to, that his clients were being persecuted for a epécial purpose and because of a frup- ture between Miss Marshall and a certain private citizen who had influence with the police. This woman was dragged off to the calaboose every week or two while no other woman ofher class in that part of thé city was ever molested. Whenthe cases Were calléd yesterday Morning Segt. Willlams and thetiwo police- men, who had madethe arrest were atthe Waters-Pierce O11 Works fireand a continu- ance for the city was grantedto to-day against the protest of Mr. McDonald, When they wefe first called this morning, the at- torney was not in court and they were passed down until his arrival THB TRIAL TO-DAY. Mr. McDonald asked that all five women be tried together, but Acting Oity Attorney O’Brien objected, asthe charge against the keeper of the hotise was different from that against the inmates, and Judge Morris decided that Miss Marshall must be tried alone, but that her girls could be tried to- gether. Miss MarShall was then called into court and took her seat alongside of her at- torney, in frontofthe box, Sergt. Williams was called tothe witness stand. He testified tothe arrest of the defendant and to the kind of house she kept, and then he was turned over to the defense for cross-examina tion and the trouble at once began. Mr. Mc- Donald asked the witness who had ordered him to raid this house and Sergt. Williams answered: ‘‘I don’t think that’s any of your business.’’ The question was again put, ‘*‘On whose order or authority did you make that arrest?’’ ‘*‘My own,’’ responded the withess. Several similar questions were put witha view to eliciting whether Williams had received in- structions to arrest the Marshall woman, But without success. ‘‘pid any private individual give you the order?’’ was then asked, Whereupon Jtidge Morris brought his hand down on the bench with a bang and told the witness not to answer the question, but he did so anyway and said no, He had not and could not fe- ceive orders from a private citizen. Mr. McDonald to witness: ‘‘Did anyone give you any suggestion or intimation in re- gard to arresting these women?’’ The court to Witness: ‘‘Now just don’t answer that question.’’ Mr. McDonald. ‘‘Why not?’’ SPOKK OF BLACKMAILING. The Court. ‘‘1’ll not allow this court to be made the sewer through which the slime in these cases may fall on the heads of respect- able people. It can’t be made the channel for blackmailing respectable péople,.’’ Mr. McDonald hoped thé court wasn’t in- Sinuating that he was trying to Diackmall anybody. Judge Morris: ‘‘Idon’tcare how you take it. Yotican’t come in here and make this court the vehicle forthrowling siime on de- cent and respectable people. You can’t doit here. You can’t ask that question apatn.ann if you do,I’ll fine you for contempt of court.’’ Ir. McDonald: ‘*‘Why?’’ Judge Morris, lowering his voice and be- coming calmer: ‘‘I told you frankly why, and I don’t want you to dolt.’’ Mr. McDonald: ‘‘You bave no right to fine me for asking questions.’’ The Judge, Warming upagain: ‘‘Well, I’ll do it anyway, whetnerI have a right or not. Either you or I are going to run this court.’’ Mr. \s.cDonald: *‘1 don’t think there’s any question as to your being the Judge.’’ The Court: ‘*Now I mean every word I sry. don’t want to persecute anybody, but these prostitutes can’t come in here and run this court. Yon have a right as a lawyer to pro- tect your ciients, but it is my duty to see the names of good people are protecte,’’ McDonald: *‘Where did you get that authority.’’ The Court: ‘‘I assume it,’’ ‘*‘mr, McDonald: ‘‘If I attemptto show that this arrest wasat the instanceof a private individual have youa right to pre- vent it?’’ The Court: **Yes, I have.’’ ‘*NcDonald: Hl, ‘*We I propose to ask the question.’’ “ ‘*‘The Court: ‘‘I’ll fine you then.’’ Mr. McDonald said that he would makea test of the Court’s power to fine him. Judge Morris answered allright, the sooner the test was made the better. MR. O'BRIEN INTHERPOSES. Mr. O’Brien here interposed. He said that Mr. McDonala’s questions relative to that rivate individual had been objected to by im and that the objections had been sts- tained, and it would be clearly a case of con- tempt if the questions were again asked under the circumstances, The Court: ‘‘If that is not contempt of court, I would like to know what ifs.’’ Mr. McDonald to witness: ‘‘I ask you !f you arrested this defendant this time or before or at any time at the instance of any private in- dividual?’’ **Witness: ‘‘I did not.’’ Mr. McDonald: ‘‘Did you arrest her at the instance of one John Smith?’’ Under the instructions of the court Sergt. Williams refused to answer the question, c : **Did you talk to John Smith about this case?’’ Court to witness: ‘*Don’t answer.’’ McDonald: ‘*‘Did Smith come to you and say that he was going to run this woman out of town?’’ The Court to witness: ‘*‘Don’t answer.’’ lg woman and arrést nb other Keeper Ia nd arr no othe that neighborhood?

Mr. McDonald said that the court had no right to maké any such order and proceeded With his cross-examination, evidently de- termined to control his temper, if possible. He putthe question again to the witness whereupon Judge Morris arose from his sea and calied to Deputy Marshal Price and Serzt. Williams to sieze Marshall McDonald and take him Gown to the lock-up at once. McDonald didn't want to get tip, but Will- jams jerked him out of the chair with the assistance of a policeman and the Deputy Marshal, )' ** Adjourn court,’’ shouted Judge Morris. **Sllience,’’ shouted Deputy Marshal Fox as the people began getting up and rushing ovér the Hoor in all difections. Order Was soon restored, and Marshall Mc- Donald made ho further resistatice. He was led out followed by a big crowd of people, but only a few of them were permitted to go below, When Sergt. Williams marched up to Capt. Yoting’s uffice down stairs with his prisoner McDonald asked what the charge was, THEY LOCKED HIM UP. **You have no right to lock me up,’’ he said, *‘without a charge.’’ Capt. Young was out at the tite and Sergt. Grady not caring totake the responsibilty of deciding 50 im- portant a question on his OWn responsibility went upto the Chief of Polite for instruc- tions. In a minute or two he returned and ordered the prisoner lockéd up. Me- Donalda’s ecg were searched. No pistol, Knife or other deadly weapon was found, but only afew private papers and some $25 in money. ‘‘What is your age?’’ asked the Sergeant. ‘I decline to state,’’ answered McDonald, and no further question was asked him. The custom of the police upon locking a man up or piacing a charge against him is to ask his name, age, residence, place of nativity, business, whether he is married or not and other like quéstions. In the meahtime the business of the court had been hat yy upstairs. Judge Morris at first wanted Miss Marshallto go on with the case, but she claimed that she could not do it without her attorney. Then Mr. Simon Bass stepped up and asked the court to contintie the case to next Monday. Judge Morris said that perhaps his judgment might bo Diased against the defendant under the circim- stances and so he Would continue it and give all partiesa chance to cool off. This case and that of her girls were therefore redock- eted tor next Monday. ALICE MITCHELL A Memphis Medical Expert Pronounces the Prisoner Insane. MrEmpnts, Tonn., Jitly 23.—Notwithstanding the intense heat the Criminal Court room Was as Well filled to-day as on prévious days ofthe Alice Mitchell case. The defendant looked as composed and cheerful as ever, if anything, brighter and more self-satisfied with her position and surroundings. 8he paid as much attention to the examination of witnesses as any of the outsiders who attended out of mere curiosity. She smiled as much as ever at the answeérs of wr hosaoe and appeared to be much amused és. Miss Joe Ward continued her testimony this morning and eaid Alice Mitchell told her she loved Harr peopis gal Roselle, and did not care what about it, she loved him all the same. Alice was vice-president of the Social Hours Olub, an organization composed of young ladies and gentlemen and regular- ly attended the meetings at different residences. She seemed to be as much inter- ested in young men as were the girls. At th point attorneys engaged in a lengthy discus- sion on the State attemptingto makea par- allel of the case with that of Guiteau, the siayer of Garfield, and man law books were. produced and read, but nothing was decided by the court, the matter being passed over. The present Charles and Mrs, Mendenger testified that they were members of the same Presbyterian church as the Nitchell family and they ai- ways noticed something strange in i Mitchell’s manner whenin chtirch. she was unlike her sisters and was cold and distant and difficult of approach, Dr. F. Sim of Memphis, medical expert on nervous diseases, Was examined at great lenxth. He stated that shortiy after the tragedy he had made an examination ofthe mental condition of the prisoner at the jail and he regarded her as in- sane, her insanit being of a kind of delusion from which recovery is rare. He could not say that she was insane just at the present time,as he had not seen her since he made the ang Saget referred to, Dr. Sim was still on the stand at the hour of recess of court, undergoing a searching cross-examination at the hands of Attorney eneral Peters on the subject of insanity in all its variaus phases and especially as to perverted sexual instinct with which the | present case is so mysteriously involved, People’s Party News.

Recent heavy sales inthe immediate West End center between Forest Park and the Old Bofhomme road beyond Union avenue and the work now under way for the develop- ment of that new residence section may be taken asf fair indication of the splendid future for all that territory. it was only last Tuesday that a frontage of ,000 feet on Waterman avenue, Kingbury boulevard and De Givefrville avenue west of Union was sold for $180,000 to one of the most enterprising local operators.

The predictions are that to-day the temperature will slowly rise, and that the weather willremain fair, Clear skies will characteiize to-morrow, and there may bea slight fallin temperature, but no important change is expected. Throughout the West and Northwest there is no sign of a storm, and the thermometer ranges high.

TAKE GOOD ADVICE AND 8EE THE ONLY M’NICHOL He who can fly how gets away From heat, mosquitoes, bugs and flies, And svffer on the live-long day NO matter how to rest he tries. It is not fun to travel far Ahd look for peace 'mnid busy scenes; No matter who or what you are. You’re foolish thus to waste,your means. In crowded rooms to hope for alr, In narrow coops, expecting 6a50; *T will be indeed a sad affair— To try your family to piease *T will cost you every ceut you’ye got To wander to the East; And if you find a cozy spot You will pay to say the least. If your taste is not fickle, ou can do without ocean’s foam Or the mountains, jus¢ go to Mc Nichol And let him arrange you a home! You need not wait long for the money For credit will do, so to speak; When you think of the way it seems funny, But you pay it on time by the week. Let others get sunstruck or hazy In rooms full of horrible trash; If you don’t beat all oe yen are craz ou’ve ho need to pay down the cash. So many like you have tiecided At once to quit comfortiess things; Accept what a friend has provided, And yon’) never feel poetry’s stings. MeNichols is the great helper. He is the friend of every man, woman and child. He will make you en- {oy life whether you have money or not. You can uy all you need, and home is the place in this weather. He is the man! “nark.)

THE ACROBATIC ART, Hard Work and Vicissitudes of the Pro- fessional Tumbler’s Life. Interview in the Chicago Tribune, ‘‘One day an actor named Gillett came to the gymnasium, and the moment I heard he was an actor I began turning hand and head- springs in a way that astonished myself, He asked meif I would like to go on the stage with him. I could not gay ‘yes, sir,’ quick enough for fearhe might change his mind. He took me to his home, bought mea suit of clothes and I became professionally known as Frank E, Gillett of the Gillett Family, bicycie riders ana acrobats, ‘*The first morning I went with Mr. Gillett to practice I shall never forget. The first trick he taught me wasa backward somerset. lwas ordered to stand erect, and when the word was giventospring backwards, throw my head Dack at the same time, and turn ‘for alll was worth.’ Gillett stood on the left side of me, and when I was turning gave me considerable assistance by placing his right hand on my ieft hip. Imade the turn and landed on my hands and feet. Iwas the happlest boy itn mage: my first trial wasa success, After Mr. Giliett was confident that I had the somerset he began to teach me how to turn on his shoulders. A belt was fastened around my waist with a connecting rope on each side. **Kach rope was placed through a pulley on the top of an upright pole on each side of me, and 1 was again instructed to ‘go.’ ILlost control of myself while in the air, and only for the aid of the mechanic or ‘lunge,’ as they called, I would have broken my neck. I was frightened almust into hysterics, I discovered, however, that I could not injure myself aslongasthe mechanic was used, so Icontinued practicing untill had mastered the trick. Sometimes ey ed, to be sure, and then Gillett was a bit vicious, but on the whole he was a good sort. **Cases of abuse? Yes, I’ve known them; of course, that is what gives our branch of the profession the ugly nameit bears. One of the most celebrated com panies of acrobats in America was in New York City several years ago ata certain theater. ‘The top per- former in what is called a ‘high lean’ hap- pened to bea boy. You know the act. The men stand oneach other’s shoulders until they are ‘four’ high,’ then all fall forward and roll over together, striking on thetr feet. Well, the men under the boy slipped back- wards instead of forward, and the boy him- self fell, breaking his back. The company took no care of him whatever, and he died alone, after horrible saffering, in a hospital weeks after. : **In Pittsburg there was another bad case not solongago.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July 23.—The great farce isover. Allthe prisoners charged with the murder of Williams and Bright are free on the streets of Forsythe. The State entered a nolle pros. in‘each case, in utter despair of securing convictions under the present regime of Taney County. A panel of forty jurors was qualified yesterday morning, and after looking over the array Messrs. Davis and Sharp,-for the prosecution, concluded that to goto trial would be making comedy out of tragedy. Oonsequently they took the only course jeft them. Messrs. Pepperdine and Harrington of this place received advices from Gov. Francis instructing them to nolle pros, These attorneys were retained by the Governor to assist the prosecution, but be- cause of the peculiar position of the court in overruling all the motions of the State they withdrew. The trial of this case will now be appealed to the ballot-box and the next election will decide whether the law is su- preme in Taney County or not. Through Spirit Lake Sleepers.

CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. “ALL AROUND MEN. Players Who be ‘Fill Different Posi- tions Are Plentiful. | . ; SOME OF THE MOST NOTABLE EXAMPLES OF THIS CLASS. — The Browns Continue Their Losing Streak —Western Horses Attracting Atten- tion in the East—Gaudaur and Hosmer Have Challenged Hanlon and O’Con- nor to a Match Race—Sporting News. Good all around players are no longer the rare article they once were. Nearly every team of the twelve-club league has at least one man in its ranks who fills several different positions on the diamond in an acceptable manner. Mike Kelly of Boston is not onlya good catcher, buta star outfielder and can play any infield position fairly well. Lowe, who is covering left field for the champions, is quite an all-around man. Be- sides covering any outfield position, he can play a strong game at first, second, short or third base, and during the recent iliness of Long he surprised everyone by the manner in which he filled that crack short-fielder’s position. Hugh Duffy, Boston’s regular cen- terflelder, is also considerable of an infielder, Hardie Richardson, who is with New York this season, was in his day probably the greatest all-around player the country has everseen. Hardie could cover any in or out- field position to the ‘‘Queen’s taste,’’ and in addition was one of the strongest batsmen and base-runners in thecountry. Inthe last year or two, however, he has fallen of greatly in his work, and was fre- cently laid off - by New York. Charley Farrell, who just at present is cover- ing third base forthe Pittsburg Club. is gen- erally looked upon as Richardson’s successor. Farreil was signedas acatcher by Anson, who took advantage of his heavy batting by playing him in the outfield, when Farrell was not catching. He wasa good backstop, and can fill any position in the flela except that of pitcher, Lave Cross of Philadelphia is another catcher who can play anywhere ona team, exceptinthe box. Just at present he is cov- ering third, and, according to reports, his work has so pleased Harry Wright that the veteran is seriously contemplating confining Cross to the bag regularly. Catcher George Miller of Pittsburg also plays every day. When not behind the bat George usually covers center field. Last season he put up quite a strong game at third for the Pirates. Catcher Grim of Louisville is another back- stop that can be utilized in the in or the outfield. He is an unusually strong batter, andin consequence Fred Pfeffer makes ita pointto play him in every game. Buck Weaver, the Louisville out-flelder, assists Grim behind the bat fre- quentiy. Cahill, whowas recently released by the Colonels, had done great work the preceding season behind the bat and in the in-field. Tom Burns, Brooklyn’s slugging out-flelder, when with Baltimore a few years ago was recognized as one of the best short- stops on the diamonds He can also play third base, and when any of Brook- lyn’s in-flelders get injured Burns is brought in to replace them. Jim O’Rourke of the New Yorks has made a first-class reputa- tionasa catcher, a first baseman and can also make a good showlng at other positions. Catcher Doyle of New York also frequently fills uv holes in the infleld. Davis, who usually plays right ‘fleld for Pat Tabeau’s Cleveland Spiders, has _ fre- quently played in the infield for the Spiders and in each instance made a very creditable record. Catcher O’Connor lis another one of Tebeau’s spiders that can play almost anywhere. George Van Haltren of Baltimore its a good all-around player. He has at various times during his career as a ball player been a’pitcher, a shortstop and an outfielder. The Baltimore management take advantage of this fact and utilized him frequentiy everywhere onthe club ex- cept to catch. BOSTON’S NONSENSICAL KICK. It has been already shown in the Boston club that this cut down to thirteen men is bad business, says a Boston exchange. The pub- lic will not stand this kind of economy if it will prevent a club from being ready for any emergency.

The state Ofaffairsin Cuba is ripe for a revolu- tion. The discontent ts general by reason of the Government’s exactions. spain is a poor nation to pay its debts, and all the debts it has contracted within the last century it is taking out of Cuba. It has too many men who have to be supported in office, and when itcannot do better it sends them to Cuba. These carpet-baggers, as you would call them in America, know that the first change in government at home will throw them out, so while their tenure of office lasts they try to wring as much as possible out of the people. The Cubans have to submit tothe domination of arace inferior to themselves oremigrate. But whether they remain at home or leave they are still resolved to put down this oppression of theircountry. ‘This feeling is general throughout Cuba and an outbreak may be expected any time.’’ St. Louis to Colorado Without Change.
