LEFT IN THE LURCH., Policy Holders in Co-Operative Tailoring Compen’‘es Taking Legal Action. The SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH announced the closing of-the Great American Co-operative Tailoring Co,, which has been operating for some time in the sale of clothing onthe $l a weekclub plan.The concern was closed onan attachment forrentsworn out by the Oriel Realty Co. The managers were packing up evidently with the trtention of clearing out, andthe Oriel people concluded thatit was best to shut downonthem. Mr. Bannester, representing the Oriel corporation, got his work in justintime, and secured, he says, about enough clofh and other tailor stuff to make the company good for the month’s rent they owed. . Two members of the club have brought suit in Justice Sheehan’s court. C. W. Andrews sued for breach ofcontract and filed an im- sing looking certificate entitling the ho!der oa chance ata suit of clothes on pzgyment of $la week, and guaranteeingthat his pay- ments should not exceed $’8. ‘his certificate was originally issued to Frank Rodgers, but he traded itto Andrews. This suit is for $38, the guaranteed limit of the certificate. James P. Higgins brings a similar suit, but Ae has only $26 worth in the concern. These cases will be tried on Aug. 5. The Great American Talloring Co. has been running abouta yearhere. Its peculiar way of doing business was. seriously objected to by local clothiers, and they eot indicted for running what was eubstantially a lottery. Tom Harvey successfully de- fended the concern in the Court of Criminal Correction, and then the company launched out boldly on the sea of advertising and dida very large business. But how large can only be surmised. It is understood that a very eat number of = certificates were ssued, but the victims just now are saying nothing, and their numberisa matter only of conjecture. Four men who happened to be bunched together, the other day, On comparing notes found that they were outan average of $17 apiece. If each victim has dropped $17, the concern is ahead by avery handsome majority. So far as ts known, there is not theleast vestige of the company in town, and the prospect of the victims realizing anything on their invest- ment is exceedingly slim. Bid for Iron Pipe. When the bids for the 2,200 tons of iron pipe to be used by the city in the Water-works de- partment were opened at noon toeday it was guite evident that there had been a combine among the pipe manufacturers of the coun- try. Forthe last lot of pipe the city paid ae per ton. To-day the lowest bid was Thete were three bidders—the Addystone Co. of Cincinaati, Dennis Long of Louisville and Harrison & Howard of Birmingham, Ala. The local firm did not putina bid, but as the Birmingham foundry is, to acertain extent, a braneh of the St. Louis concern, one bid may have been deemed sufficient. the Birm- ingham fourdry was the lowest bidder, the highest bid being $26.80. Mr. Howard of the firm of shickle, Harrison & Howard of this city when asked by a Post-Dispaton reporter about the advance said: **We elther had to advance prices or shut down on-making large pipe entirely. There has been no combine or pool formed, but there is an understanding that we will at least make a smai!l profiton pipe in the fu- ture. There ig no money init at. present at $20, and as the demand for it is very light, we bad to raise our prices.’’ If Kansas City builds ber posed new. ater-svorks she wtll probably find the ad- nee will materially affect the estimated though Water Commissioner Holman is 2 opinion that from the. present outlook fore Kansas city owns | Se q THIS ll LS ; | . .

They told the members that Sedalia ought to hayeitto counteract the effect of the Republican demonstration there this week. Ontheother hand John Knott of Hannibal, the home of the Daiton boom, told the members that the ratification should be held there to allay the disaffection among the friends of the defeated candidate for Governor. ‘‘The people up there are aw- fully sore,’’ said Mr. Knott. ‘‘If Stone and Dalton would come there and speak together, the campaign would move off with a rush.’’ CANDIDATES FOR SECRETARY. While the membDers were distracted by the arguments of these delegations they were aiso considering seriously the election of a Chairman and Secretary of the com- mittee. There was no canvassing for the Chairmanship, except among the members’ themselves, but candl- dates for the secretaryship sprung upevery minute,it seemed. There was OC, A, Kitchen, a well-Known newspaper man of good Democratic ancestry. He was .the ceanges Confederate soldier who. fought in issouri, and Maj. C. C. Rainwater was ubiguitous inthe rotunda with the intention of getting himthehonor. The candidate of Senator J. W. Teasdale of Kansas Uity was William M, Smith, who was the secretary of Judge James B. Gibson during the campaign. Secretary Thos. L. Phillips of Perryville wasa candidate, and so was Bax- ter Brown of Warrensburg. Just -before the committee met, Douglass Crothers, formerly the Assistant Secretary of the Council, ap- peared in the rotunda chaperoned by Chair- inan Maffitt,andit became Known that he was being presented as a compromise candl- @ate. When the committee went into session | the word was passed along to the candidates that sam Cook of Audrain, .who is the mem- ber of the committee from the Ninth District had aoe been suggested as a man who woul be of most use to the committee. Most of the candidates, when they heard this, were dis- posed to give up hope, **Of course,’’ saidone, ‘if Cook wants it, they’ll give it to him,’’ THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE. For the first time in years the seat of W. H. Phelps of the Fifteenth vistrict was occupied ax Smother when the committee organized. The retiring - members all staid in the room, however, during the-meeting.» Mr, Phelps, in fact, will have as. much to do wit. commit- mittee affairs as he had before his resig- nation. It was plainly seen to-day that he is regarded as a useful man. ‘Was con- sulted every minute by some member of the committee about some matter. The new committee is: First District—John H.

The committee was in session only a short time. JohnH. Carroll, the member from the First, .was :made temporary chairman k temporary secretary. Then,as it.was evident that without consultation there might be friction in choosing the chair- man and secretary, the committee adjourned till 20’clock, in order that canvassing might bring about unanimity of feeling. Up stairs Mr. Stone..and tbe ¥ rest of the candidates talked over the campaign and the men pro- posed as managers, anda strong sentiment manifested itself in favor of the re-election of Chairman ©. C. Maffitt and the - election of Harvey W. Salmonas Chairman of the Cam- paign Committee. For secretary, the candi- dates said they preferred Mr, Cook. Chairman Mafitt was sent forand be anu Mr. Salmon went.uptoMr. Stone’s room end discussed the matter. Mr..Mafitt had said that he would not accept the chairmanship, but, finding that the candidates- wanted him, he reconsidered. The members of the State Committee were then informed ofthe desire of the candidates and went into session again at 2 o’eiock ready to elect all the officers unanimously. When the committee reconvened Mr. Stone and all the other candidates were called in to confer with the members. Among the crowd at the door it was then said that Mr. Mafitt had decided to demand Crothers for secretary if he became chairman. Itis also said that Mr. Stone was unwilling to accept Mr. Mamtt aschairman. Mr, Stone said tothis: ‘‘There is not a word of truth in it.’’ New Yorn Stock Quotaticns.

Death Bate Keeps Up to the Standard—Heat Prostrations Reported at*Many Points—St. Paul Reports a Cool: Wave Coming Dire Effects of Old Sol’s Rays. Callers at the Signal Service Office were able to obtain very little ground on which to base their hopes-of cooler weather. About 10 o’clock heavy clouds began to gather, and many believed that they were the precursors ofa storm that would cause the temperature to fall. This belief was not shared by the Signal Service . observ- ers. “I think that those clouds are indicative ofa rain'storm, possibly ofa thunder storm,’’ said Observer Herndon, **but am almost certain that its effects will be local and temporary. During such ex- tremely hot weather as we are now having, local rain storms are likely to occur at al- most any time. They moderate the heat only temporarily, as the former conditions are very soon restored. Looking over the reports that are coming all quarters, I can see nothing that would indicate any appreciable change. In the West and Northwest itis very hot, and there are no storm centers that would prom- ise relief. The likelihoodis that there will be little permanent change inthe tempera- ture either to-day or to-morrow, and the resent torrid gpell may last some time onger. A peculiarity of the slight breeze that blew this morning was the rapidity with which it shifted. At one time it came from the south, and then changed tothe southwest. A cessa- tion of all perceptible breeze then occurred, and for a time the columns of smoke rose straight into the air. Soona gentile breath came fromthe north, accompanied by rain, which fell in large drops, but soon ceased. OVERCOME BY HEAT. Wm. Gray of 3009 North Broadway was overcome by heat, inthe Wabash Railway yards this morning and was taken home. It is expected that he wili be able toreturn to work in a day ortwo. There have been at least thirty prostrations reported up to noon in this city, three of which have resulted fatally. The day is more oppressve than yester- day. The present hot spell has continued longer than any other since July, 1887, when over one hundred people died in this city in three days of sun stroke. The thermometer at 1o’clock registered 93, one degree hotter than yesterday at the same time. TO-DAY’S READINGS, Ati * | ®eesee* erececee Oe OLD SOL’S RAYS. They Are Spreading Death on Every Hand.

After the Grand-jury adjourned for the day it was learned that the Ziegenhein matter had been disposed of at the morning session, jand that although some of the members wanted to indict him, there were not enough in favor of it to finda true bill. It takes nine members of the Grand-jury to fud an in- dictment. INVESTIGATING THE STOCK EXCHANGE. Another matter considered this mornin was the character of the business transacte by the Stock Exchange on Pine street, oppo- site the Merchant’s Exchange, Several weeks ago Detectives Kelly and Scully received in- structions to swear out a warrant against the proprietors of the place on the charge of gambling, but Mr. Estep refused to issue the warrant, claiming that although the Exchange might be cohducting a gam- bling business, it would be difficult to prove it. | Not satisfied with Mr. Estep’s decision, the detectives visited him again last week and tried toconvince him that a warrant should be issued, but he declined to doso, and then the detectives. decided to go beforethe Grand- jury, which they did this morning. GEO. HOEFFNER INDICTED. About 12:30 this afternoon the Grand-jury returned three indictments’to the Oriminal - Court, the most important being one against George Hoeffner, a saloon kKeepér opposite | the Four Courts, for ‘attempting to bribe a witness not to testify.’’ ‘Lhe indictment charges that Hoefiner gave Wm. A. Folya . check for $2.0 as an inducement for him not to testify in a case of burglary against Leonard Strauss, the man charged with stealing some carpets and other things recently, from Liederkranz Hall. An indictment for bur- glary and larceny ‘was also returned against eonard Strauss and another one against David Johnson, The indictment against Johnson bad scarcely been reported when Attorney Furling announced that the pris- Ooner was ready to plead gulity to burglary. Johnson was brought up and the plea was made and accepted and in less than a quar- ter of an hour after the return of the indict- ment Johnson had been sentenced tothree years in the Penitentiary. Seven more of Furling’s clients also pleaded gullty and were sentenced as follows: Pete McGrail, six months in the Workhouse for larceny; Noah Williams, in the Peniten- tlary Tony ‘Williams; Bural Wade, years for bur- glarizing Frank Klaiber’s residence; John Harrington, six months Inthe Work- house for larceny ; Mike O’ Donneli, two years for grand larceny; John Zimmerman, three years for burglary, and Josh King, four months in the Work-honse for assault to kill. Mr. Furling concluded to go to trial with one of his cli- ents, namely, a negro named Andy Woodley, andthe jury gave the darkey three years for his assault last spring on Police Officer Race, The Grand-jury had another indictment, but at the last momentasiight mistake was discovered init. Some ofthe jurors wanted to return it anyway, while others thought the court’s opinion on the matter should first be asked. Judge Normile sent the jury out to prepare the question, and then the majority voted to wait until to-morrow and correct — the mistake or preparea new indictmeut at their regular session. ; aa ~~ , ONE a he seg ty od and — - when yrup of Figs is taken; it is pleasant. and refreshing to the taste,.and acta ily:yet promptly on the Kidneys, iver ei Berke cee the rup of Figs is 3 8 S A $7 wa F RE a ea a ka eae Ag oe cae Senate Shee SCO,CAL,

LITERARY BUREAUS. THEY WILL BE ESTABLISHED BY BOTH THE GREAT PARTIES. WASHINGTON, D. C,, July 2#6.—A proposition has been made to the Democratic National Committee to establish for this campaign a literary bureau, with Representative Amos J. Cummings at its head. Should the present programme be agreed to Mr. Cummings will be made a member ofthe Executive Commit- tee, so that he will be thoroughly conversant with the details of the campaign,and it is ex- pected that his combined journalistic and litical instinct will enable him tofurnisha arge amount of good 'emocratic material Gisguised ina newsy readable way. It will de remembered that the President suggested to Gen. Clarkson that ‘the latter take charge of this kind of work for the Kepublicans. Gen. Clarkson did not ap- prove of the suggestion, for a number of rea- ons, but nae since understood that the President intended that the position should ‘be second in importance only to the chair- manship, he is said to regard the matter ina Gifferent light, and while he will not work himself he will § see is done.

Weaver, the People’s party candidate for the presidency, arrived in Denver last evening, and will stop here to-day and to-morrow, during which time he will make two speeches on the sstuation ofthe day. Gen. Field did not come West with him as it was at first in- tended. Mr. Weaver said that affairs in Vir- infa demanded Mr, Field’s presence, and hus he was forced to give up hiscontemplat- ed trip. Gen. Weaver would not talk politics, saying that he would reserve what he had to say until the following night. Hesaid, how- ever, that Virginia was solid for the People’s party and he also considered Colorado to be. The Silver League Convention was called to order at 11 o’clock by the Chairman ofthe State Committee. The assemblage was or- ganized by the election of C. Il.

Warrants were issued for the three prisoners on the charge of attempted criminal assauit and the same charge willbe placed against Gallagher when he is arrested. Mrs. Davis declared her intention to prose- cute the assailants of her daughter to the full extent of the law. Sadler Inquest Again Postponed. The inquest on Marcellus Sadler which was postponed yesterday morning on account of the nervous condition of the woman who shot him, had to be postponed again to-day, and this time on the failure of the officers of the mounted police district to have the pris- oner present at the hour set for the investi- gation. Deputy Coroner Meade waited over an hour on them, or until after 11 o’clock, and then continued the case to 5 o’clock this afternoon. A few minutes after the witnesses had left the office a telephone message was received tothe effect that the long looked for carriage which was to convey Mrs. Sadlerto the Four Courts had just arrived atthe Fifth District Station and that the woman would soon be at the Four Courts. Mr. Meade telephoned back that it was too late, theinguest having been postponed on Sonam of another investigation set for Mrs. Sadler js still suffering greatly from nervous prostration and her condition at times last night was considered serious.

PROBABILITY THAT ALL WILL RESUME THEIR PLACES IN A FEW DAYS. The Differences Between the Men and Their Employers Over the Insurance Scheme Will in All Likelihood Ze Amicably Adjusted—Situation Among the Planing-Mill Men. The strike of the employes of the St. Loutis Smelting & Refining Co., at Howard’s Sta- tion, which was declared yesterday morning in protest against the order for the men to join an accident insurance company, was not so serious in appearances to-day. About sixty of the 300 men who comprise the night and day forces applied for work to-day and were admitted to their former places, The men who still held out kept close to their homes and away from the works. Sergt, Hickman and five patrolmen remained on guard, nevertheless, to repel any attack which the strikers might make. The police were inside the works near the gate andan assistant foreman stood at the gate with orders to admit no one but emploves and per- sous specially privilegedto enter. The re- torts and furnaces which heretofore have been running night andday from week end to week end werecoid, Pilesof pig lead lay in the yard, and sheets of copper were stacked in the copper house, but no fresh supplies were turned out to supplement these piles, The strike was due’ to the distribution last Saturday of policies inthe new accident tin- surance company which the men were ex- pectedtosign. By the provisions of the policies the St. Louis Smelting & Refining Co. were authorized to deduct from the wages of the men a stated sum to pay the premium on the policy. The amounts to be paid the men in case of accidents or death were stated in detail. The men decided to strike rather than to sign the policy, and express their disapproval of the dismissal of Fore- man Copeland, who was said to have been unwilling to properly explain the scheme. General Manager snyder said to-day that he expected no more trouble, and looked for the return of the men. The clause in the policy allowing benefits in = case of sickness which was omitted in the forms first given to the men, will be adjusted to satisfy both sidesas soon as the excite- ment isallayed. Sergt. Hickman said that he did not think that there would be any dis- turbance, He wasof the opinion that he and his force of officers would be away from there in a day or two. Confident of Winning. The striking planing mill employes held their daily meeting this morning in St. Louis Hall, and the 500 members of the union were very jubilant over the report that the Caron- delet Planing Mill had decided to come to terms, and had madean appeal for the old employes toreturnto work, agreeing to pay for ten hours’ work and allowing the em- ployes to work nine hours. As soon as the information was received at the headquarters of the strixers, John Green, Chairman ofthe Executive Commit- tee, left for South 8t. Louis to hold a private consultation with the president of the mill and to have him make out his agreement in writing before he would consent to order the omer se back to work. While Mr. Green had not returned at a late hour this after- noon, the members of the Executive Com- mittee are confident that the mill has iven up the fight and that Mr. reen is only detained on his own account. While the mili only employs about fifty work- men, the strikers are very enthusiastic over the victory and claim that in a very sbort time every mill inthe city, including tliose that are worrying along with men for who they plan five was kept and til didn and once a ke hec in in his Her wel dar Mr. morn non-union uting the dered them by the members of various labor organizations, liberal during the past week that the strikers | were allowed nearly as much, if not more than their salary would have amounted to, and as a consequence they are firm and state precty 700 in a $6,00and they decided to get and join fortunes. 8 po s and rented the box together and gy ~ was given esterday Deposit com ae a icles that belongedto her husba and Stein were to be married next month, way of a confi probable, died last night. of the General Ritual Scant, — —— -_—_—— a » will give up the fight and make a call their old employes. ‘The strikers had more than one cause to encourage them to- day.

EPAULETTIED DONKEY. Col. Streator of the Tenth N. G. P..is cutting a wide swath in the field of folly. He is an aggravated case of misplacement. His treatment of Private Iams showed that | he is mentally groping aboutin the glim- mering light of the dark ages, and:his subsequent utterances indicate that he is without the faintest gleam of knowledge of the differences between a barbaric mon- archy and a free country. Talk of treason flows trippingly from Streator’s tongue. After torturing Iams and subjecting him tothe vilest degrada- tion for alleged treason he threatens to | Visit similar punishment upon protesting citizens who may dare to indulge in **treasonable utterances’’ within the lim- its of the high and mighty authority of His Colonelcy. According to this military Ccaperer treason consists in making im- proper and ill-tempered remarks about the Oarnegie outfit. He apparently regards Frick as the Czar and himself as the Czar’s minister, invested with the absolute power to maintain the deference due to Czar- ship. There seems to be no hope for Col. Streator. He is beyond remedy and en- lightenment because there appears to be no proper material in his thick skull upon which to work. Some alleviation of the painful situation might be gained, how- ever, if he were stripped of his epaulets and sword and kicked out of camp on the ground that a donkey is not competent to be an officer of militia. Snowden can hardly be trusted to perform this duty, as he seems to be tainted with Streator asin- inity. The unfortunate element of the ocour- rence is that the offending militiaman has been made an object of popular sympathy. The point of his grave offense has been covered and the lesson of his punishment impaired by the folly of his superiors. Their conduct was more unsoldier-like and subversive of discipline than his. They have degraded the militia serviceto the level of vile slavery, and have impaired the military authority of the State by the exercise of silly and savage tyranny. ee ee a A REMARKABLE SUGGESTION. In commenting on the Taney County miscarriage of justice, Judge Thomas A. Sherwood said Saturday that theconstitu- tion ought to be so amended as to give the State aright to take a change of venue, where local prejudice would prevent a fair trial. The speaker of course had reference to sec. 22 0f our ‘‘Billof Rights,’’ which says: ‘‘In criminal prosecutions, the ac- cused shall have the right to appear and defend in person and by counsel; to de- mand the nature and cause ofthe accusa- tion; tomeet the witnesses against him face to face; to have process to compel the attendance of witnesses in his behalf; and a speedy public trial, by an impartial jury of the county.’’ That such a suggestion in regard to this proiecting section phould come from such a source is remarkable for several reasons. , It is remarkable in the first place as be- ing a voluntary suggestion by a politician and a direct thrust at the people of Taney County by a professional office-holder and office-seeker who lives in that immediate locality. It is remarkable also as showiug the speaker’s unaccountable change of posie tion. The one striking characteristic of Judge Sherwood’s decisions’ in criminal eases has been his disposition to go to ex- treme limits in order to shield the accused and to give him all the rights to which the law entitles him. Sostrict a construction- ist has he been in this respect that he has been called ‘‘the criminal’s friend.’’ And yet he now wishes to deny to every man of the county.’’ The recommendation is also remarkable as showing that so experienced a jurist can entirely ignore the fundamental and essen- tial difference between statutory and con- stitutional law. The statute laws are passed in order to protect the public from the crimes of individuals; the constitution is intended to be the safeguard of the in- dividual, protecting him from the oppres- sion and tyranny of the majority. When thus the humbliest personin the State is shielded by the strong arm of the consti- tution, itis remarkable that one of our highest judicial officers should recommend that one of the individual’s most sacred rights should be taken away from him. because itis a public announcement by a local self-government is a failure. It is equivalent to.saying: ‘‘We cannot trust the people of a locality to punish its crim- inals; let us therefore give the prosecution such cases asit may wish into some other county in order to convict.’’ The North- ern and Eastern press and public have so many of the evolutions and revolutions ; of Kansas City politicsin the last fifteen ' never yet.eaid anything more severe about ' oy the str ‘‘a.speedy public trial by an impartial jury | The suggestion is remarkable, finally,. | Democratic nominee that in his view |. additional leverage and permit it to take |] | South western Missouri than, isthe legiti- | mate inference from this recommendation. Republican partisanship has never made a more direct attack upon the fundamental principles of Democracy. There is no Opportunity to quibble over the word ‘‘impartial,’’ for the question of partiality is decided by the oaths of the jurors-themeelves. And the guilt or inno- cence of. the Taney County mob does not enter into discussion, for in any govern- ment founded upon the rights of the peo- ple, wherein an effort is made to protect the weak from the tyranny of the power- ful, miscarriages of justice must necessarily occur and the guilty frequently escape punishment. Bearing in mind these facts and looking at. the matter entirely dispassionately, the ex cathedra . recommendation of. the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Missouri is in every respect remarkable. _ — -_. - ———— _ Who Taught Them? From the New York WORLD. The protected capitalists are. the authors of the theory that the .wage-earners are. the partners of their. employers, and that the bounty. which Government forces the people to pay .for the.maintenance of the Carnegie stee] works and other manufacturing estab- lishments isintended mainly for the benefit of the workingmen. Believing thus in the allurements and promises of their employers, the men, as they say, ‘‘invested thousands of dollars of their savings’’ in Homestead ‘‘in the expectation of spending their lives’’ there and ‘‘ot working in the mill during the period of their efficiency.’’ But all this is changed. The capitalists have confessed that they have been deceiv- inggheirown workingmen and the country, and that they obtained their bounties for themselves. Itds a large question, as we have said, that has been forced upon the manufacturers by theirown duplicity. If it seems ludicrous to them and their supporters thatthe workingman should claim an inter- estintheir property, they need only to con- sult their own professions to ascertain the reason of the claim. The Option Bill. From the Sprinfield (Mass.) Rep ublican. Good for Senator Vest. He not only showed courage but political shrewdness in his assault upon the anti-option bill. He said nothing about the. Dill which Is not true, and little about the motives of Senator Washi- burn, whois urging its passage, that is not probably true. Washburn’s altruism, ex- hibited in his zeal that the farmer shall get the largest prices possible for his Wheat, isa most remarkable phenomenon deserving, the sarcastic comment with which Vest treated it. Washburn’s deniaithat it was any ad- vantage to millers to buy their wheat cheaply was another unique contribution to political economy, which was afterward ex- panded into a general denial that .it was to the advantage of any manufacturer to get his raw materials cheaply. Such.a debate as that of Wednesday will have a valuable effect upon the country by way of an anti- dote to the delusion which is behind the pres- sure to passthis bill. if no more gets into the minds ofthe farmersthan the fact that this bill, if it becomes a law, will not prevent option trading, nor future trading, but will, at.the most, only transfer this speculative dealing to Europe, it will well-nigh demolish their faith in it as a cure-all for low prices. More Pay for Life-Savers. From the Washington Post. The Post extenas its hearty congratulations to the genial Congressman John J. O’ Neill of Missouri, for his successful management and final passage inthe House yesterday of the Senate biil increasing the pay of the members of the Life-saving Service crews. This isa most meriterious measure for which the thanks of its beneficiaries are due principally to Senator Fryeinthe Senate, Mr. O’Nelill in the Hause, Superintendent of the Life-saving Service Kimball, and the Rev. 8. Edward Young of Asbury Park, the latter of whom took avery lively interest in behalf of the men who man the life-boats as a result of his pastoral ministrations among them along our seaboard, spending his time and money in an uncommon zeal for their welfare. If the spirits of those who have crossed to the ‘‘other shore’’ are cognizant of what is transpiring here, certainly that of the founder of this humane service—the late S. 8, Cox—must feel happy that the men of the service which he created are not entirely neglected in their material welfare. THE PEOPLE’S FORUM. {No Matter written on both sidesofthe sheet cana appear under this head.—Ep. 1 The Case of Private Iams. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: The heart of every true American must boil with Jndignation on reading about the pun- ishment given to. Militiaman Jams, as relatea in this evening’s Postr-DisPaTcH. It was a most unwarranted and uncalledfor treatment of the gentleman, under the circumstances, and worthy more ofthe barbarians of dark- est Africa than of the citgzens of the United States of America. If. it is to be taken for granted that Priyatelams deserved punish- ment, which the upholders of the grand American right of free speecb,and their num- ber is legion, will mot for one instant allow, itis certainly’ never to be granted that he should be punished in the Inhuman way described. If we must still go back tothe | daysiof the Inguisition for methods of pun- ishment, we Of the so-called and supposedly inteMigent Nineteenth Oentury are indeed in a bad way. And we are still far in the rear of..civiliza- tion if we continue to bow with such deference tothe fetish named ‘‘martial law,’’ under whose rule all sorts of arbitrary and irregu lar, not to say outrageous, actions are com- mitted by biased and hot- headed officials of the army and militia. Why, in an enlight- ened age,and for Americans, martiallaw should be any different from and be exercised more severely than'civil law is a matter not clearly demonstrable to a thinking freeborn citizen of this country. Gen. Snowden cer- tainly made an unmitigatedassof himselfon his arrival gt Homestead, and it was weil that Gov. Pattison gave him to understand that clyil law was still supreme in that place; though the Colonel of Private Iams’ company | seems to have forgotten the injunction as soon asthe Governor + back was turned. To main- ‘tain ‘‘soldierly discipline,’’ if this precious thing was really so much in danger, I think it would have been only necessary to caution Private Iams not..to repeat his ‘‘offense,’’ and to P a better eon his tongue. If the Colonei or the Oaptain could have possi- bly unbended so far from his dignity, he ‘might have done well toexplain to the pri- vate, nd in kind words, too, why such re straint of la suage was Cesirable. But no, samerly discipline must be arbitrary and reh, or | g. While a system of military seems to be still ne , it hevertheless, most deplorable that under its workings, many if not sometimes a majority of ats members are at times t ih a-‘Cause they have no sympathy with, and must needs shoot down people w Dey would rather favor by Sacracine i anch tases sete aes ae Ty arn se iss of tyranny, and the person ious against it can hardly be eelings regard ing vent to nie i arfare.

Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Can you not call the attention ofithe proper authorities to the manner in which the police treat the residents of Grand avenue in the neighborhood of -Cass avenue. Last Tuesday night noisy and boisterous men and women paraded the street, whooping and hallowing and making noise enough fora political meeting. Thepolice were silent and made no attempt to perform their duty. Now this isa frequent occurrence. Again, crowds of loafers congregate around the saloon on the corner of Grand and Cass, talking, swearing and using language that would shock a sallor away intothe early hours of the mornin2. Now this is a.disgrace to our city and to clv- ilization, and if the police officer on this route refuses to perform his duty and stop such conduct the Chief should place a manon that would, asthese nightly orgies keep de- cent people from obtaining needed rest and are in direct violation of law. ' MANY SUBSORIBERS. Our Ruined Driveways. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Since reading Bill Nye’s excellent article in the SUNDAY Post-DispatcH of July 24 Ihave been wondering if his knowledge of roads is really based on experience in North Carolina, or if his education therein might not have been principally acquired by a drive over some of St, Louis’ so-called boulevards dur. ing his recent visit here. Ithinka trip from Tower Grove to Forest Park, via King’s high- way boulevard, aftera spring rain, would have proven too much for even the filial af- fection of his young ‘‘Marguerite,’’ bare- footed and unhampered by any load though she was. But a drive to Bellefontaine over Florissant avenue, or aspin (?) along Union avenue from Easton to Forest Park, over car tracks and cobblestones an‘ hills and valleys, at about halfa mile an hour, would have been entirely sufficient for as fertile a brain as Mr. Nye’s, and I am inclined tothink that his article was written especially for the St. Louis Board of Public Lmprovements, at any rate if it should happen to meet their eye and awaken them to a realization of the fact that what few good roads we were born with have been destroyed by the street-car lines, and the only drive we now have is out Lindell avenue and back again, we will owe Mr. Nye and the Post-DrspaTcH an everlasting debt of gratitude. BROKEN SPRING. A Militia Misfit. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: As one who has served for six years asa private in the Missouri National Guard, where all the boys areof ordinary intelli- gence, and the vast majority in point of in- tellectual attainment, family antecedents, and, in many cases, wealth, the social equals or superiors of any commissioned officer, from Second Liewtenant to Commander-in- Chief, permit me toenter my protest against the stupid tyranny and brutal cruelty of Col. Streeter in punishing Private Jams for a hasty and foolish utterance. That Iams is an honorable fellow Is evi- denced by, his stepping forward at the Colonel’s request and acknowledging the charge before it was made against him. That Coi. Streeter is a consummate ass and a block-headed tyrant, personally too con- temptible to notice, and only noticed because of the position he holds by the people’s will, is as plainly evident. If Gov. Pattison permits such cattle to wear Colonel’s epaulets in the National Guard of Pennsylvania, he must expect it to be dé- graded to the level of an army composed of privates too lazy to follow a man’s occupa- tion. MILITIAMAN. Dangerous Sidewalks, To the Editor of the Post-Disnatch: Has the city of St. Louls such an officer asa sidewalk inspector? Ifthere be such a being would you kindly call his attention tothe condition of the sidewalks on Elllott avenue, between Wash streetand Cassavenue. On the east side of Elliott avenue, between Day- ton and Dickson streets, there isa hole in the sidewalk large enough to dump three ton of coalintoit. It continaesto get larger day by day, but I suppose the owner of the abutt- ing property is in the push, and, therefore, does not have to repair tiie sidewalk. » A. PED. A Complaint Denied. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatcr: The article which appeared in the ‘‘People’s Forum’’ of the Post-DISPATCH some days ago in which some person signing himself **South Side’’ complained that a ‘‘gang of hocdlums’’ congregated nightly at Twenty- eighth and Papin streets and stoned and in- sulted ladies who passed, is without founda- tion, anda great injustice to the neighbor- hood.

There isa gang of the worst set of hoodlums that ever infested the city congre- ate atthe corner of Jefferson avenue and erbert street, and make the night hideous with their curses andscreams.

Yards. ) THE MOST FORMIDABLE VESSEL OF HER CLASS EVER BUILT. She Will Be Ready for Her Work of Destruction by Oct. 1, 1893, and Will Be Speedier Than Any Atiantic Liner —Description of Her Machinery and Armament. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 2.—The new United States cruiser No. 12, the Columbia, formerly known as the pirate, was launched at Cramp’s shipyard ¢his afternoon in the presence of a large crowd of spectators. Among those present besides a number of naval experts, Senators and Representatives and agants of foreign governments were Vice-President Morton, Secretary Tracy, Assistant Secretary Pat Grin- nell, Senator Hiscock, Commodore Wilson and Naval Constructors Howlen and Woodward, Mrs. Morton and Miss Edith Morton. The last. named young of christening the new vessel Columbia, The cruiser is in mapy respects a unique ves- seland is the fastest commerce destroyer ever lauched in any waters, and for the pur. pose intended, the most. effective engine of destruction the world ever saw. A complete description of the ship 4s given in a_ recent report to Secretary of the Navy by Commodore Wilson. The Commodore points out that the crulser was designed with twoobjectsin view—speed and coal carrying capacity. To obtain these es- sentials the cruiser had tobe given.a large tonnage. Thisis 7,500, and yet the engines, boilers and apartments. use up nearly all this space. She is 400 feetin length on the load water line, 58 feet in beam, and in draught 24 feet. This will make ber more of a greyhound than the Atlantic liners, which, for stability, are obliged to haye much great- er beam. As to her speed, the contract requires her to go 22 knots an hour on her trial trips. If she cannot dothis she will be subject to re- jection or penalty. The best hour’s. work by any ofthe liners was that of the Teutonic last year, 21.06 knots. The Pirate, her build- ers are confident, will surely reel off 22, and they are equally confident that she will be able to keep it up for twenty-four hours, making a distance of 528 knots. The record for twenty-four hours at present is held by the Majestic. The coal carrying capacity of the cruiser will be greater than thatof any steamer or naval vessel inthe world. The big bunkers will hoid 2,000 tons. This would be sufficient, at the rate of ten knots an hour, to allow the crulser to remain out of port for 109 days, or a radius of action of 26,240 knots, or nearly the circumference of the earth. Fourteen knots will be the usual speed of the cruiser, except when she is on pressing business,when she willtear through the water like a race horse. It would be bad business for the Pirate to get caught in the Southern. Pacific and exhaust hercoal, asunder the present conditions along the west coast of South America, it would cost $80,000 for her to coal up. The government, it is said on good authority, wilin afew years establish coal- ing stations on the Chillan coastand on other portions ofthe South American coast. INTRICATE MACHINERY. The machinery ofthe cruiser will be more intricate than that of any steamer in the world. There will ba three triple expansion engines, each working a separate screw, one on elther side of the rudder and one above it. The horsepower of the engines under forced draught will be 20,550. The engines all have the same stroke, 42 inches, and the diameters of the high intermediate and low pressure cylinders respectively are 42, 59 and 92 inches, Under full pressure each of these three screws should turn at the rate of 128 revolu- tions per minute. On the City of Paris ninety revolutions per minute was the maximum in her record-breaking trip. The three-screw idea originated with Chief Engineer Melvilie, whose idea was toavoild, if possible, the heavy shafting which would have been necessary had only two screws been used. Inthe latter case 10,000 horse- power would have been transmitted by a sin- gie shaft, while inthe three-screw arrange- ment only 6,850 horse-power passes through each shaft. The strain on the heavy shafting is tremendous, and the consequences of a break-down are most disastrous. One reason why Mr. Melville evolved the three-shaft scheme wasthe factthat the ship had to be entirely American made, and there are grave doubts as to the ability of American man- ufacturers to guarantee so enormous a forg- ng. some engineers have doubted the efficiency of the three-screw system, on the ground thatin certain trials in France the. center was found to have only a minimum propel- ling power. This, however, was when the screws occupied the same vertical plane. To obviate this difficulty, the side screws in Mr. Meiville’s plans are situated fifteen feet for- ward and above the center one, so that the water from the side screws does not interfere with the water flowing intothe periphery of the center one. Each of the three shafts is fitted with a disengaging coupling, so that the propellers may be free to revolve when not in use. Thus the vessel may be propelled at a slow speed of 14knots by the center screw alone, ata medium speed of 17 knots by the two side screws, andatahigh speed of from 20to 22 knots by allthree together. This arrange- ment allows the machinery to be worked at its maximum and most economical number of revolutions at all rates of the veesel’s speed, and each enginecan always be used ror propelling the vessel. This is an advan- tage that two sets of engines working on the same screw do not possess, There are ten boilers. Six of these are doubie-ended, 154% feet in diameter by 21% feet long. Two others are 11 2-3 feet in diam- eter by 18% feet long, and the remaining two, which are single-ended, are 10 feet in diam- eter by 8 feet long. These boilers are made of steel,anc they carry a_pressure of 160 pounds, Kight of the largest boilers are builtin airand water-tight compartments, into which there is forceda draught of 216, - 600 cubic feet of air per minute wher running at full speed. The efficiency of the mechanism of the com m:rce destoyer is shown bya comparison with certain features of the Philadelphia, which is now a representative of the finest type ofshipin the United States navy. The total grate surface of the Philadelphia, for instance, is 624square feet; that of the com- merce destroyer is 1,285 square feet. The to- tal heating surface of the Philadelphia is 20, - 457 square feet; that of the commerce de- stroyer is 43,371.4 square feet.

TIME OF COMPLETION. gris engine of destruction will. be ready r the seas by October, 1893. The contract for her construction was awarded to Cramp & Sons, Oct, 4, 1890, their bid being $2,725,000. Added to this the cost of armament and equipment, and the vessel will have cost about $3,200,000. It was stipulated in the con- tract that the entire vessel, in..all its parts. should be of domestic manufacture. As awhole, this vessel will represent the latest idea ofa powerful, economical, pro- tected crulser, embodying the highest results knowledgeof the world, with improvements designed by American inge- hulty, The accommodations for officers and crew will be spacious, well ventilated and lighted. All the most improved modern ap- Ay me ay for exhausting the vitiated air and or incandescent lighting by electricity have been incorporated in the design. The sub-dl- vision of the hull is such as to form a doubie bull below the water, and willoffer as great security against damage from torpedo at- tacks as can be given in a Vessel of this class. She conld do irreparable damage before she some be caught by any ship that could whip r. IN THE CIVIL COURTS. The Will of Charies B. Thomas Filed To- Day~—New Suits—Legal Notes. The .will of. Charles Thomas Biddlestone, known as Charles B. Thomas, was admitted to probate to-day.. The testator leaves all his estate to his mother, Mrs. Eliza Biddle- stone of England. Ile states that his right name is Charles Thomas Biddlestone, and that he discontinued usingthe name for family reasons. If his mother be dead when the estate is closed out he bequeaths it equally to his brother, Isaac John Biddlestone and his sister, Jane Biddlestone of No. Clarence place, Moncetown, Davonport Devon, En- giand whichis also his mother’s address. If his brother and sister can not be found he orders his property givento Golden Crown Lodge, No. 62, Knights of Pythias, of which he isa member, the lodge.to keep the prop- erty until the right helrsare proven. His estate consists of a stock of clothes wringers athis store, 6026 Franklin avenue, which he orders sold. He appoints his friend, Wm. Pelkus,a cigar manufacturer at 1421 Frank- lin avenue, to take charge of his estate. Union Dépot. Site Litigation Ended. The litigation between thejnew Union Depot Co, and certain property owners of portions of the site of the new Union Depot, which has been pending in Judge Valliant’s court has been settled. There were two cases, thatofthe Union De- pot Co. of St. Louis against Adele Rieger and others and the Union Depot Co. of St. Louis against A. McAllister and others. The ex- ceptions to the reports of the commissioners were withdrawn in both cases and the re- ports of the commissioners confirmed in both cases, The Soulard Will Judge Valliant made anorderof distribu- tion to-day in the Soulard will contest case, directing the St. Louls Trust Co., which has been in charge of the estate pending the litigation, to pay $4,200 of the accumulated income of the estate toJ. L. La Motte and his sister, Mrs. Cates, as. their share of the fund of $19,222.98 which accrued during the Litigation, Pubic Administrator Charles Scudder was granted letters of administration to-day on the estate of Maryan Tubolski, The Lella Davis Minning Co. filed articles of incorporation to-day with a capital stock of $3,170, all paid. Henry Stanley owns 158 shares of the stock; Anna E. Griffith 59 shares; Bartlett 8S, Adams 44 shares; Chas. S. Taussig 34 shares; Joseph Lathrop 2l shares, and J. W. Holmes i share. The Hoffman Will Case. The deposition of Christian Hoffman was fled in the Probate Court yesterday in the claim which is pending in the court of Mrs. Isabella Hoffman against the estate of John Hoffman, ber hus- band, who died March 19 last, leaving a large estate, which was given part to charitable institutions, and settled on his grand- children, his widow, who was his second wife, getting but a modest share. Mrs. Hoft- man claims $13,000, which, she alleges, her husband obtained from her. She claims that ina marriage contract her husband agreed to preserve her estate to her should she sur- vive him. Christian Hoffman is a brother of John Hoffman and his deposition set forth that his brother told him that he had re- ceived certain sums from his wife. Suit for Injury to a Racer. J, A. Hartman filed suit to-day against the St. Louls Agricultural & Mechanical Associa- tion for $2,000 damages for alleged injuries to a race-horse belonging to the plaintiff. He alleges that on May 30, 1892, his race-horse, Tamerlane, was entered tor a race during the defendant’s racing meetingand while at the starting post the horse was struck in the eye witlfia whip by the starter andthe sight of one of his eyes déstroyed.

Stockholders to Demand an Exhibition of the Books. Private telegrams received on the Mer- chants’ Exchange from New York indicate that trouble is brewing for the Whisky Trast, this time from within its own ranks. It is stated that financiers who have been promi- nent in its management are preparing to sue of the books, the purpose being to ascertain whether or not mn dends have Deen id when none were earned. That this has n done is freely asserted, and some stock- holders declare that they are determined to Sift the matter to the bottom. “Federal Building Notes, the jdirectors, and to demand an examination : GERMAN SINGERS.

St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Tuesday, uly 26, 1882. ~ Fi ANARCHY IN COURT.| : Moneau the Belgian Dynamiter, on , Trial at Liege. PERMITTED TO MAKE A “RED” SPE£LCH ’ DURING THE TRIAL. “Anarchy, Thy Kingdom Come,” the Con- cluding Words of His Address—The Criminal a Desperado of the Ravachol Stamp-—British Politics—Mexican Mat- ters—Ingalls in Germany—Foreign. BRUSSELS, July 26.—Moneau, the head of the bana of dynamiters, who with fifteen of his followers is now on trial at Liege, charged with having caused dynamite explosions in that city on May Day and at other times, made a speech in courtin which he referred to Gambetta andthe Fenian and Bulgarian revolutions in 1830 as leading up to anarchist developments. He concluded his speech by shouting: ‘‘Anarchy, thy kingdom come!’’ Monean is a desperate man, of the stamp of Ravachol, executed a few days ago in Paris. The disturbances at Liege for many weeks terrorized the city. Bomb throwing was of almost daily occurrence. Belgium isa hot-bed of extremists in the labor cause and Liege has been the center of the band of dynamiters which bas given the @uthorities so much trouble. When the World’s Labor Congress was held in this city there was a sharp conflict between the ex- tremists of the Moneau type and the more conservative labor reformers such as the English trade unionists, The result wasa splitand the Anarchists and rabid Socialists have since followed the dynamite remedy of fighting realand fancied wrongs. Thefe is no difficulty in establishing the guilt of Moneau of the crimes with which he Is charged,though some of his accomplices may go free. BRITISH POLITICS. THE SITUATION DISCUSSED AT AN INFORMAL RECEPTION. Lonpon, Jaly 2%.—Sir William Vernon Harcourt has held aninformal reception at which were present the Rt. Hon.

He was waited upon at Hawarden to-day bya delegation of 800 Liberals of Leeds, towhom hemade a speech. Mr. Gladstone is expected to arrive in London on Thursday next. MEXICAN MATTERS, CONFIRMED—THE SILVER QUESTION. City oF MeErico, July %.—The Supreme Military Court confirms the death sentence against Col, Neleves Hermandez. The sen- tence will unuoubtedly be commuted by President Diaz in view of the Colonel’s past services. Ex-President Bogran of Honduras has fled to the United States. Ceiba and Trujillo are still held by the revolutionists and President Leiva desires peace at any price. In an interview yesterday President Diaz, referring to the silver question, said the de- cline in the price of silver would undoubtedly have a prejudicial effect upon Mexico for the reason that not only the Government but the merchants, investors and exporters are obliged to place money abroad and therefore a high rate ofexchangeis extremely disad- VYantageoustothem and is of no benefit to commerce, though it may be a good thing for exporters of agricultaral products. The President added: ‘*There is no crisis in Mexico. There isa partial paralysis of busi- ness, but that I hope will soon pass over.’’ He further said most positively that there was no truth in the rumor that customs duties willl be increased or that any new taxes are to be imposed.The Government, he deciared, would try in every way to foster commerce, DEATH SENTENCE GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS, EX-SENATOR ‘INGALLS LOADING UP FOR THE CAMPAIGN. BERLIN, July 25.—Ex-Senator Ingalls of Kansas, who has just paid a prolonged visit to Berlin, left a few days agofor Vienna via Dresden.

He in- tends to take the stump early in September and wishes to be well equipped on the im- portant issue of the campaign—protection— not only ag it effects the mercantile commu- nities of the Kast, but aiso as to its bearings upon the condition of the American farmer.

PETERSBURG, July 26.—A sensation has been caused among the lower classes here by the miraculous discovery of an image of the Virgininthe foundation of the church thatis being built on the spot where the Czar Alexander Il. was murdered.

The A. Weyl Baking Co. Now Ready for Business. It has been said that ohe ofthe reagons no shopping to any extentis done In the morn- ing was because so few places eXistetl in St. Louis where a lady could geta nice luncheon. Mr. A. Weyl, formerly of Dozier-Wey! Cracker Co,, recognizing the fact that such a lace would be appreciated, has opened a dies’ Luncheon Parlor at 415 Washi n avenue, just east of the Parisian Cloak > and itis worth mentioning to the ladies itis complete in every particular. To-da was Mr. Weyl’s opening day and the parlors ofhis beautiful place were thron with ladies. That ‘*Weyl’s’’ will bethe popular resort with the ladies goes without saying, from the fact that aside from being the coolest and cosiest place of the kind, it is elegantly fitted upund is just the place a lady can enjoya delicate little luncheon without being fatigued by waiting or from the heat of a close compartment. No doubt Mr. Weyl will receive the patronage and appreciation of the ladies his elegant place deserves. TO PROVE HE WAS ALL RIGHT. A Frenchmen Namod John Gros Calls on the Chief to Clear Himself. A Frenchman named John Gros called at police headquarters this morning to show that he was not one of the confidence men who had robbea the Heyd family of $4,000. It Was suspected atthe People’s Hotel, where he had been stopping, that he was one of the robbers, and he wantedtoconvince Chief Harrigan that he wasallright. From anold valise he drew forth a package of papers, which proved to be a deed to some property at Judsonia, Ark., an _ insur- ance policy and other papers showing that he was one ofthe solid citizens of Jud- sonia. He owned, hesaid,a garden of ten acres on the outskirts of Judsonia which he was desirous ofselling and as ee ee at home had as much land as he wanted, he had come to St. Louis to finda purchaser. He de- sired to returnto France and that. was wny he wanted toseli out. Gros hau a very lim- ited knowledge of the English langauge and was turned overto Detective Arehambault, who gave the unsophisticated gardener some fatherly advice, telling him to return home at once, as ifhe remained in the city much longer he would lose not only his money—and he had quite a noll—pbut also be swindled out ofhisten acre garden at Judsonia.

MASS-MEETINGS TO RAISE FUNDS FOR REVOLUTIONARY PURPOSES, Jose Marti Tells the History of the Move- ments in America and the Work of Las iIndipendientes—Prominent Pa- triots Who Are Identified With the Isl- and Cause. JACKSONVILLE, Fila., July 26.—Nearly 1,000 | Cuban residents of this city have joineda club organized for the purpose of assisting their countrymen im the event of war with | Spain. A meeting held here yesterday was attended by fully 1,600 Cubans, besides many Spaniards and Spanish speaking Americans. | The speakers at the meeting were Jose | Marti, the exiled Cuban patriot, who is now living in New York; Gen. Carlos Roloff, Lieut.-Cols. Sanchezand J. D. Poin. Senor Marti explained the object of the meeting and told in a forcible way the exact situation in Cuba, of arousing feeling against Spain, but to organize the Cubans into clubs that would assist the cause of independence with their money when an opportunity presented. The other speaker added bat little to what he said, but all insisted on having an organil- zation and being onthe alert for an emer- gency. A prominent Cuban of this city says that the movementis very strong and that the clubis already in a flourishing condition. Nearly every member of the club in the United States willcontribute about $1 each week, making an income of $5,000 a week to the warfund. Besides thisthere are many Cuban women and children in the country who will also contribute to the fund, LOS INDIPENDIENTES. Don Jose Martiis a Cuban by birth and has heid several diplomatic sitions on the island. Reis one of the leading promoters of the organization of Cuban patriots in New York knownas Los Indipendientes. From Senor Martithe correspondent got the fol- lowing information concerning the organi- zation and its purpose: ‘*Nearly two thousand members are en- rolied upon its records of membership, and every one ofthem is pledged to shoulder arms and march to the assistance of the rev- olutionists whenever the leaders of the revo- lutionary party in Cuba shall decide the time is ripe for them toagain declare war against their Spanish rulers. The society contains alike the wealthy andthe poor members of the Cuban colony. **Los Indipendientes’’ was organized in 1885. Its officers consist of a president, vice- presi- dent, secretary anc treasurer. It has noreg- ular place or time of meeting. The president is Juan Fraga, ayoung, wealthy, popularand influential member of the Cubanfcolony. Ben- jamin J. Guerra, the Vice-prepident, is an- other of the best known members of the Cu- ban colony. Ernesto M. Aquing is the organ- ization’s treasurer. Others whoare active in forwarding the affairs of this organization and working for the independence of Cuba are Gen. Lueralta, who is associated in business with Ponce de Leon, and wlio represented Uruguay in the late Pan-American Congress; Enrique Trujil- lo, the editor of the newspaper E/ Porvenir; Gen. Francisco Carillo of Brooklyn, Dr. Kkmilio Nunez, of Philadelphiaand Dr. J. M. Parraga of City Hall place, one of the lead- ing Cuban physicians of this city. Nearly ail these meh saw active service during the revolution of Yara. Despite the sufferings and hardshipsthey endured dur- ing the period they are all ready to again go .o the front and battle for independence. Ever since the incipiency of the society it has devoted itself tothe collection ofa fund to be devoted to the battle for freedom and its leading members now assert that there is sufficient money on hand to arm, equip and transport a considerable force to the scene where the battles must be fought. The officers of the society are in constant communication with the leaders of the revo- lutionary party in the island, and will be thoroughly informed wnen the Cubans there are ready totakeuparmsana again declare themselves free and independent of the gov- ernment of Spain. BOUND TO COME. Discussing the future and the possibility of revolution in Cuba one of the patriots said: **It is bound to come, just when, none of US Can tell; so that we must be prepared and hold ourselves in readiness to hasten to the assistance of the revolutionists resident in Cuba whenever it does come.’’ last December one of the leaders of the revointionary party paid an extended visit to the island. His object was twofold. He went to consult with tie leaders of the Cuban party at bome as to the conditions which prevailed there; tofind out what the senti- ment of the people was as to the propriety of another early struggle for their freedom from Spain; to discover what strength such a movement would have and what financial re- sources the revolutionists in Cuba could bring tolisalid. He also weat to see what effect the exactions of the Spanish Government in taxations forthe supportof the home Govy- erhment were having upon the Spanish land- owners in Cuba. He spent several months in Cuba and came back with his mind thoroughly made up that Cuba must look tothe Unite! States for tie success of any revolutioa Which might be at- tempted there. ‘They all believe that Cuban a can.ouly be gained by biood- shed. IN LEAGUE WITH BANDITS. One cause of hostility to Spanish rule in Cuba isthe fact that there has existed in Cuba fora longtimea combination between a@ number of the officers of the army of oc- cupation and the bandtts who infest the island. The purpose of the combination was the kidnapping of wealthy natives and the procurement of ransoms. The traffic has flourished.

It Is another link in the long chain of hard- ship to which the natives of the ‘‘Queen of the Antilles’’ have been subjected.

A few days agoa good looking and stylishly- dressed young man called at Joe M.

Last night about 8 o’clock a large crowd of men and boys boarded one of the rickety old street cars that make seml-occasional trips up and down Main street, and in a spirit of fun and derision loaded it so full that the tiny mules attached were barely able to draw it. The crowd was so great that the interior of the car was packed to suffocation, and as many persons as could find foothold on the platforms added tuthe number and weight ofthe others. Asa natural consequence the car soon broke down, and then sucha howl of derision wentup as had not been heard on Main street for years. The crowd jeered and hooted at. the _ driver, the mules and the car itself, and manifested their feelings of contempt for the dilapidatea street car line by burning colored lights at the corners of the wreck. Finally the car was overturned, and leaving itiying on one side in the middle of the street the crowd dispersed. Last -aturda night a portion of the street car trac was torn up by some persons wun- known, and since then the annoyance and inconvenience te which the owners and operators of the line are subjected have so multiplied that they may be expected to give up all effortto continue the running of cars.

Lincoln, Neb.—Gooper of Humboldt, Neb., just camein. Reports corn curling up badly and turn ing white inspots. It is being damaged every day this weather continues. Unless rain falls at once Gamage will be serious. Minneapolis—Van Dusen & Co., whose elevator lines extend in ail directions, say, while they have occasional local reports that are sntavorsble, vos they have nothing, taking the reports a:a whole, to cause any apprehension.

Large pro- portion going into steck, but enough selling to sup- piy ail wants at 50c to 60c a bu. Corn late and needs rain and late fall toinsurea fair crop. Ken- tucky reports movement free and very early for winter wheat. Northern Dakota reports the gen- erai prospects for spring wheat poor. South Dakota reports not much danger of rust or lodging. Great need ofrain. Extreme heet for past ten days and no rain for three weeks is very trying. The Northern Pacific Elevator Co. has just eom- pleted a canvass ofthe wheat prospects in its terri- tory, Minnesota and North Vakota. ‘The estimate is that the wheat raised on the lines will not be over from 65 to 75 per cent of the quantity produced last year. This ig due in rt to the fact that the ecreage of wheat is “ cent iess than it was last year. North Dakota Elevator Co, sompleled: its Canvass of the situation along the lines of its elevators and takes a less hopeful view of the situation. It esti- mates that the wheat raised will not exceed 60 per cent of the amount produced lastyear. This is also due in part to a decrease in acreage of 25 per eent. The harvest will not begin at any of these points before Aug. 2. As in the other sections there is some appearance of rust, but no damage has resulted from it, and it is not much feared. Dornbusch of July 13 says of Freneh crop condi- tions: **The weatheris thundery in the western regions. This morninga rather yiolent thuuder- storm burst over the metropolis. Thecrop situation remains unchanged, and reports now to hand con- firm the accounts already published. In the pro- ducing exchanges offers of wheat continued on an ordinary scale; the aemand remained inactive and rates denoted a feeble tendency. WUats are well sustained owing to rather discouraging ad- vices of the crop, while in other spring grain there was little animation, but values showed no variation, In Italy downwerd prices of wheat continue. Parcels oi the newcrop have appeared in neariy ail the ex- changes, and find favor with buyers on account of their good quality. Corn purewes its upward course owing to the absence of rain, which causes some uneasiness among farmers. The con- sumptive demand for this cereal, however, is small as imported grades are still offered at moderate cur- rencies, Rye continues retrograding, and samples of che new crop are in excellent Condition. Oats haye not as yet been offered, while the old crop is gradually being exhausted at drooping rates. The weatber bas been generaily fine and warm. With respect to the wheat harvest opinions are divided, but the prevailing one is that the crop will fall short of last year’s. The St. Louis Liquor Trade. Bonfort’s Wine and Spirit Circular describes the local liquor trade as follows: ‘‘‘the sit- uation here is one of expectancy.

Buffalo Costello and Alex Greggains signed articles at San Francisco last week to fight Aug, 30 in the rooms ofthe Pacific Club fora purse of $2,500. This mafch promises to bea good one. Greggain’s friends have been anxious to see him goupagainst a good man, such as Costellois, orat best was. His sev- eral remarkably good showings with Frank Slavin have not been excelled by any of Slavin’s other opponents, except of course Peter Jackson. . Costello’s short work with Mickey Dooley, who was regarded as the iwost scientific man in the Antipodes, will also add considerable importance toa victory if Greggains can earn one in his coming fight. Costeilo issaidto bein good shape and will therefore have little todo beyond strength- ening his beliows. DENVER ED SMITH AFTER FIGHT. Ed Smith, the Denver pugilist, writingtoa friend in San francisco, says: **I would like to get a chance at either Hall, Fitzsimmons, O’Brien, Pritchard or any one at 158 pounds, and any fair-sized purse will suit me.

New York, July 26.—The Herald’s Paris dis- patch says: ‘‘Both Schaefer and Slosson are } on the sick list and are only playing exhibi- —— tion games.

According to a New York dispatch there Is said to be a syndicate of wealthy New York “gentlemen who are ready and anxious at any time to buy a controlling interest in the New York club and run it under different and more liberal lines than at present. It would be a good thing for the game all over the country if this deal could be accomplished. Money would then be at the disposal of the manager to strengthen weak points in the team, and the game would receive a new boom, which would be extremely beneficial. YESTERDAY'S GAMES. The Browns managed to win a game at last by defeating the Senators at Washington yes- terday. The home team started out well by pllingup four runs in the opening inning, after which, however, they were unable to score once. While the Senators made more base hits than the Browns, Galvin, who was in the box for the latter, pitched on the whole avery steady game. His support, especially as usual the work of Glasscock, was of the gilt-edged order, Jack alsoled the Browns atthe bat. Cooney, Dan Richardson and Duffee had seven errors between them. The summary follows: St. Louls, 7; Washington, 4. Base hits—St. Louis, 7, Washington, 10. Errors—st.

New York, July 26.—Electrician strowger believes he has discovered the secret of doing away entirely with the ‘‘hello’’ girls in the telephone office. Yesterday his automatic instrument whichitisintended shall super- sede, was testedin this city. A temporary telephone exchange was constructed, where a private exhibition was given. The auto- matic switchboard does not require a differ- ent telephone instrument from those now in use. It is merely an automatic attachment, which doesaway with an operator in the central office to connect the wire of one sub- scriber to that of another. The switchbuard is in thecentral office. On the shelf of every telephone is a row of keys, five in number. fhey are marked units, tens, hundreds and thousands, the fifth key being the release key. This is the way elec- tricilan Strowger’s plan works: The sub- scriber wishing to place his telephone in con- nection with that of another, successively presses the keys. lf the man at telephone 288 wishes to place himself in connection with telephone 315 he presses the key markea hundreds three times, the key marked tens once and the key marked units five times. When the conversation is ended he presses the release key. ‘This disconnects the tele- phones. St. Louis to Denver, Colo., and Return Only $12 Only.

[Ee AID FOR IRON RIVER. Generous Responses to the Oall for As- sistance. West SUPERIOR, Wis., July 26.—Neighbor- ing towns have responded generously with aid for the hundreds of homeless people at Iron River. The loss of household effects was needlessly great owing tothe expecta- tion that fire engines would arrive, and many made no effort to save their goods un- tiltoolate. Not over $20,000 Insurance was carried on the destroyed property, which was worth over ten times that amount, Several Superior contracto®s are heavy los- ers, having erected many buildings and taken time on sale. Losses: D.S. 5. - $35,000; Northern Pacific, $20,000, and Wiscon- sin Investment Uo., $30,000. Most of the peo- ple are housed in passenger coaches and freight cars, and rebuticing will go on rap- idly. It is now said the fire was of incendlary origin. Tramps, of which there are scores in the town, are supposed to be responsible. It is even claimed they prevented citizens from making effectual efforts at fighting the fire. A wagon containing five barrels of water was driven hastily upto the fire butthe water was spilled ty the tramps before it could be used. ‘they hindered fire fighters in other ways and robbea and plundered right and left. The tramps secured large quantities of liquor which they lugged and rolied to the timber near by. Asa result the tramps are drunken and insulting. One tramp was shot at yesterday, but escaped. Iron River was what isknown asa ‘‘Hot Town’’ and the fraternity was prominent. ——— DOWN GO THE RATESTO DENVER Via Wabash-Rock Isiand Short Lins. St. Louls to Denver and return, $32.15.
