That was two days ago,and now the police are hunting the men under the belief that they were implicated in the general ps. against the Carnegies by the ‘‘reds,’’ which resulted in the wounding of Chairman Frick.

JUDGE MAGEE REFUSES BAIL IN THE CASE OF CRITCHLOW. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 28.—Sylvester Critch- low, one of the strikers charged with mur- der on the day of the riot, applied for release on bail to-day but was refused and remanded to jail for trial. At the hearing several witnesses swore that they saw Critchlow load and fire a gun at the barges. In refusing bail, Judge Magee said the case was close to murderin the first degree. Hugh 0’ Donneil’s policy all the time was for peace, This man was for war and bloodshed. Critchlow’s attorney claims that he will be able to prove that he was not Dehind the bar- ricade that day. Wm. Close, another striker, was released on $10,000 bail. The police authorities of Pittsburg and and Allegheny say the Anarchists have thrown up their hands and _é are frightened almost to death. -Those who were loudest in their claims about being Anarchists have shutup and they all pretend to be peaceful, law-abiding citizens. The police are satistied that there was an organized plot and expectto get at the bottom of itinafew days. The matter has been takenup by the police authorities all over the United States and there is not a prominent Anarchist that could not be ar- rested on an hour’s notice. Finsler and Pir- nock, the suspects arrested yesterday, were discharged, there being no evidence that they were in any way connected with Bauer or Bergman. Mr. Frick’s condition continues entirely satisfactory and his rapid recovery now seems certain. SUGGESTED ARBITRATION, IRON MANUFACTORS MAKE A PROPOSITION TO THEIR EMPLOYES. PITTSBURG, Pa,, July 28.—The conference committees of the Iron Manufacturers and the Amalgamated Association spent eight and one-half hoursin another fruitless at- tempt to adjust their differences on the wage scale. The meeting was rendered re- markable by the suggestion of arbi- tration as a means to bring the two sides together. The proposition came from the manufacturers’ side and in this form: Thatthe men should resume work at last year’s scale pending an adjustment of the new scale by a Board of Arbitrators. The workers’ committee immediately re- tired to one end of the conference hall and discussed it for over half an hour. No definite reply was returned and no deter- mination had been arrived at whenthe meet-- ing adjourned. Arbitration asa method of settling disputes between the iron manufacturers and the Amalgamated Association has never yet been resorted to and much interest will attach to whataction the workers will take on the proposition. The Association has always poo poohed the suggestions of arbitrating its affairs, on the principle that it was very competent to manage them without outside intervention. TO BRING PEACE, MRS. AMANDA DEYO OFFERS TO SETTLE THE HOMESTEAD TROUBLE. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 28.—Rev.

HOMESTEAD, Pa,, July 28.—llugh O’ Donnell has left Homestead gquietiy and is probably Mrs. O’Donnell was quite nervous this morBing and'’said that her husband was going away on private business. It is not known here what the labor Icader’s mission is. The members of the Advisory Committee have littletosay concerning the rosy reports of mill work, except that it is very easy to impress false statements as facts upon persons not. acquainted with the subject. A fact which is being brought to the notice ofthe commit- tee by many of the earnest fighters isthe in- creased number ofabsent workmen. At the beginning of the fight a resolution was adopted thatany man who left Homestead without leave would not be allowed to work inthe miliil after the ficht was over. For three weeks after the 28th of June very few persons left town, and they all were excused, yet during the Jast week bundrecs have gone away and asa result watchfulness has veen most decidedly impaired, : ' A week ago not a stranger entered the mill but was noted.

His sleep was unbroken and he is apparently in an improved condition this morning. Pulse and respiration are normal. The Carnegie offices are now under constant police surveillance. Suspicious-looking char- acters have been loitering about the bullding for several days, but no attempt was made to enter it. : . THE MOLLICK ARREST. Lone Brannon, N.

WHAT THE LEADING APOSTLE OF ANARCHY SAYS OF THE PITTSBURG TRAGEDY. | NEW YORK, July 28.—The Fretheit, theofficial organ of the Anarchists, edited by the high priest of ‘anarchy, John Most, came out yesterday with a four-column articlé on’ the ~ situation at Homestead and the shooting of Frick, Mostadmits the authorship of the article. In its issue the week before he de- nounced the Homestead strikers for having ‘driven three o his agents out of town ar for attempting duck them in the pond,’ Yesterday’s article was headed, ‘‘Frickism.’* man in the nineteenth century. no right to exist. Frick is the personification: o everything thatis mean and his hatred is directed against organized labor. In the history of the work- ing classes, there. has never been a greater wretch thanthis capitalistic magnate, ashe has grown up from the working class and has always shown him- seifagainst the working class. He converts the sweat of the workingman into. gold, whieh he shower into the pecket of the capitalists. The work- ingmen are only a mass to this wretch, who think hé can suck the blood ous of them as he lixes, Most then s onto say that Frick regards organized lauor, whether revolutiona or not, asthe slaves of hell. Frick only likes two-legged dogs. He showed it morethan ever through the troubles at Homestead. **Never before,’’ he continues, **has a cap- italist shown himself more brutal or inhu- man tban did Frick. Donot think that this is the first appearance of the monster in this role. Oh, no, the wretch has always kept his workingmen to a stai vation point as a leecii, sucking the blood fromthem.’’ The articte continues: Yor instance, ‘at the strike in thecoal regions where Frick accumulated his twenty miilions r employed stalwart mento work for 75 couts te $ a day.

Before the close of business hours on the Merchants’ Exchange it was found that there was little likelihood of sufficient signatures being obtained to cas a eement, and a pe- tition tothe Board of Directors was eircu- lated by John T, Milliken, asking that on the last day of July the wheat in cars that had been inspected as No. 2 be deciared regular.

ANGRY JILTED WRAITHS, wo A Boycott That Darkens the Prospects of a Pair in Their Honeymoon. From the Indianapolis Journal. Ashort time ago there was a wedding in spiritualistic circles,a handsome young lady, who is credited with the possession of rare mediumistic powers, being united to the happy mah whom she preferred among a score or more of admirers, Fortunately, or unfortunately, all of these admirers are not sOjuurners in these low grounds of sorrow. 8. meofthem are in that mysterious land from which most persons believe there is no return ticket. Of course no Spiritist accepts the Prince of Denmark’s ogma on this pene and the young lady, now a bride, has tofore maintained that her admirers **over there’’ were a great deal more useful to her than those who remained on this shore of time, forthe reason that her best ‘‘con- trols’’ were these same spirit lovers Since her marriage a singular condition of affairs has come about. ‘The earthly admir- ers have accepted the situation, m of them even attended the wedding and en- Gured ifthey did not approve her choice.

Warner’s Big Day's Work at the Sedalia Mass Meeting. THREE SPEECHES COVERING SPECIAL ISSUES IN THE CAMPAIGN. A Direct Bid forthe Labor Vote Well Re- ceived by His Auditors—Plea for Fair Treatment at the Hands of the News- papers—Full Text of the Important Features ofthe Address, SEDALIA, July 28.—Two trains from Sedalia, areguiar and a special, left for St. Louis about midnight last night with several hun- dred Republicans, tired, hoarse, but intensely enthusiastic, on board. They werethe &t. Louis contingent of the grand Republican rally at Sedalia yesterday. On the special train were Maj. Wm. Warner, Re publican candidate for Governor of Missour!; National Committeeman Richard © Kerens, Judge W. S. Shirk, Republican candidate for the Supreme bench; Col. Schuarte, Secretary L. M. Hall of the Re- publican State League, Internal Harrison and Warner Club, and the rank and file of the St. Louis Republican shouters, mi- nus most of the Filleyites, who were spicuous by their absence at Sedalia. On the reguiartrain were City Collector Ziegenhein, Recorder of Deeds Billy Hobbs, **Tom’’ Niedringhaus, Deputy Dan Selg- mund ofthe Coliector’s office, Chris Scha- wacker and others. Both trains left Sedalia shortly after midnight, following the close ofthe Warner rally as emphasized by the pyrotechnic parade ofthe Sedalia Flam- beau Club under a 10 o’clock moonlight. WARNER’S THREE APPFALS. Maj. Warner did an untiring eighteen hours’ work yesterday. He made three speeches, only oneof which found its way intothe morning papers. The secondand third speeches delivered by the indefatigable gubernatorial candidate following his three- hours’ effort Association Park were, respectively, an address to the 800 employes of the Missouri Pacific car shops at 6:15 o’clock anda speech tothe representatives of the press at the Commercial Club at 7:45 o’clock last evening. His first speech was an appeal, irrespective of party, to all citizens of ‘‘the new Mis- sourl’’ to help him in overthrowing the **moss-back Bourbons;’’ the second was a direct and definite bid for the organized la- bor vote; the third was a very neat and cor- dialinvitation to the press of the State to help place him in the Executive Mansion at Jefferson City and to visit bim after he got there. This covered the ground pretty well for one day. In his speech to the employes of the Mis- souri Pacific car shops Maj. Warner talked the straightest of organized labor talk. He was drivento thecornerof Third and En- wineer streets directly afterthe close of his ‘three hours’ speech opening the campaign. There 800 employes of the car shops awaited him and gave him an enthusiastic reception. Then from his Carriage the Republican candidate for Gov- ‘ernor talked for twenty minutes on tae beau - ties of arbitation between employer and em- ploye inthe settlement of all disputes be- tween laborand capital, also on the rights of organized labor, the infamy of the Pinker. ton system, the advantages and desirability of the industrial system of profit-sharing as @ preventive of all labor troubles in the future, and on other topics now foremost in labor circies owing to the Homestead war. IT CAUGHT THK WORKERS. rhis kind ofa speech from a Republican source drove the car-builders nearly wild with enthusiasm, and when the speaker closed it looked for some moments as though he was to be made the central figure of an impromptu labor demonstration. A break was made toward the four flower-bedecked horses harnessed to the guber- national carriage. It was intended to take them out and substitute in their places the willing hands of Missour! Pacific employes to drag the car- riage back in triumphal procession to the Hotel Kaiser, a mile away. Tumultuous at cheering accompanied this demonstration, and it was with the utmost difficulty that hairman Bothwell of the Republican State ntral Committee prevailed upon the men O abandon that idea. Finally the car:iage ras driven away amidst tremendous ap- Siause from tne warkingmen. * Arrived at the Hotel Kaiser Maj. Warner ; 0% found waiting him an invitation to visit the 40 de , . Commercial ‘ lub quarters at 7:30 o’clock for the purpose of meeting the local and visiting representatives of the press. The invitation was accepted and at that hour Internal Rev- enue Collector Wenneker’s Sixteenth Ward Club, acting as a guard of honor, drew up in line atthe hotel with Tom Niedringhaus in the frontand a band playing the stirring anthem: Stand up for Missouri; Warner is the man! The club, 12% strong, had already distin- guished itself in the parade, having the right ofiline with Billy Hobbs: to lead them and showing up great with their white’ shirts, straw hatsand red-white-and-biue umbrel- las. The umbrellas were combi- nation sun-shades and campaign torches, and for the night march the torches were brightly blazing. With this escort Maj. Warner marched from | = : the Commercial Club A Revenue | Collector Wennexker and his Sixteenth Ward | COn- | | nee for Governor of Missouri, yesterday de- | livered a lengthy and able address at Seda- quarters, flanked by City Collector Ziegen- hein, Internal Revenue Collector Wenneker, Recorder of Deeds Billy Hobbs and Tom Niedringhaus. TO THE NEWSPAPER MEN. At the club-rooms a large gathering of Bowens menand many ladies were walt- ing, with the Third Regiment Band of Kan sas City furnishing music, AS the Sixteenth Ward Club band came up Ohio street playing ‘*Ta-ra-ra,’’ the Third Regiment band from the club windows above joined in, and to this inspiring air Maj. Warner entered. Then the Kansas City Glee Club and the Sedalia Glee Club sang sev- eral ‘‘Come-all-ye’s’’ after which Maj. War- ner was introduced and spoke for about ten minutes. His remarks were a very graceful tribute to the power of the press as ‘‘the only orator that reaches all the people,’’ and were warmly received. An iniormal reception followed, during which cheers were given for Maj. Warner, Richard Bartholdt, Congressional nominee fromthe Tenth District, who was present, and for City Collector Ziegenhein, wliom Maj. Warner described as the ‘‘biggest ahd most patriotic native from Missouri pres- ent.’’ ! The reception was then ended: by Maj. Warner having to witness the|parade of the Sedalia Flambeau Ciub and to hear the speaking in front of the Court-house. The speaker last night were ex-Congressman Horr of Michigan, Judge Shirk, Mr. Hastein, the Republican candidate for Congress in the Seventh District,and others. At the close of the speakinz the hegira of Republicans from Sedalia began, and outgoing specials and reguiar trains were crowded. Maj. Warner was escorted tothe St. Louis special bDya band and several hundred faithful Republl- cans. When histrain pulled out the great Republican rally was ended. THE MISSOURI CAMPAIGN. ITS ISSURS OUTLINED BY MAJ. WM. WARNER AT THE SEDALIA RATIFICATION. Maj. Wm. Warner, the Republican nomi- lia, outlining the State issues. He literally warnied up to his subject early inthe speech and democratically put aside his coat and vest and spoke in his shirt sleeves. The im- portant parts of the speec’ were as follows: RINGS AND BOSSES. It isatruth recognized by all right thinking men, that a party jong in contro! of the affairs of a State or city, if it does not become corrupt, will surely be dominated by rings and bosses. These rings and bosses controlling the party machinery are apt to think that they are the people, that the offices be- long tothe machine. Tosuch, a day of reckoning alwayscomes. The voters of this State, who believe a change in politics beneficial, will do forthe Dem- ocratic party here what like-thinking voters for the Kepubiican , in Penn- sylivania, Massachusetts, and Nebraska. The mandedachange. Itcame. The people here de- mand a change. It will come in November. In this demand the voice of the laborer, the skilled mechanic, the agricuiturist, are heard, ali joining in the patriotic cry: *‘Stand up for Missouri!’’—the New Miesouri, in which the prophet oi evil shal! be sent to the rear; the New Missouri, in which manu- factories, the chosen hand-maidens of commerce and agriculture, shall lead her to the fore-front of the States of the Union; the New Missouri, in which tne plowand the spindle, the threshing machine and the forge, shall be brought into close proximity; the New Missouri, whose remunerative fields for in- vestment shail attract men of energy, muscle, brain and capital to engage in commerce. agriculture. manufacturing and mining: the New Missouri, that shall add to the value of every acre of land in the State; the New Missouri upon which the sun of prosperity and progress shall shine. **aid its dawning tongue and pen; Aid it hopes of honest men; Aid it paper, aid it type, Aid it, for the hour is ripe.’’ In the New Missouri there will be no place for poli- ticians *‘for revenue only,’’ time-servers, calamity howilers or disciples of prejudice. 1p that glad coim- ing day the bloodless heroes who were ‘‘invisibie in war and invincible in peace’’ willbe no longer the molders of public opinion. ‘This condition of af- fairs will be hard to realize by politicians ofthe ex- Gov. Crittenden type. That distinguished citizen, ataratification meeting held in Kansas City buta short time since, bluntly but truthfully stated the political convictions of himself and those acting with him **We want the offices,’’ said he, “‘and we mean to getthem.’’ Thatthe partyin power want the offices and intend te get them, noone who is at all familiar with its insatiate appetite for oflice doubts fora moment. A CHARGE ANSWERED. The Jefferson City Tribune. the official organ of the State—published at the State capital, edited by an ex-Clerk of the Supreme Court, brother-in-law of our senior Senator, anda memberof a family of office holders—in an editorial accuses me of being a **carpet-bagger.’’ This tothe bigot and mossback isaseriouscharge itistruethat I came to Mis- souri from Wisconsin—in the fall of 1865, possess- ing no more of this world’s goods than could be carried in a carpet-bag—and have held my own in that respect reasonably well ever since. All there the years of my manhood, except while in the army, | trol ere I was married; | have been spent in Missouri. | here my children were born; my children living are Missourians; my children dead sieep the dreamiess sieep upon the bosom of my State, Missouri. | have been a Missourian for twenty-seven years, and shall remain a Missourian untill die. Let mossbacks, an- imated by the old-time spirit of intolerance and prej- udice, brand me with what they are pleased to think the most opprobious of epithets, bagger.’’ Thank **carpet- od, they are in the minority. A spirit oi catholicism, unknown to them, animates the majority of onr. people, wel- coming all law-abiding, liberty-loving people who seek to better the condition of themselves and those whom God has given them, to come to Mis- souri, giving them the assurances when they come that they shall be treated as the equals of any. This is the **New Missouri’? which the people will christen at the polls next Novemer. On that chris- tening day an army with ‘*New Missouri’’ inscribed upon its banners, an army of more than two hundred and sixty thousand voters armec with ballots, an army keeping siep tothe music of enterprise and progress, an army singing as it marches to the ballot box: ‘*Ring out the old; ring in the new; Ring out the false; ring in the true.’’ The setting sun of that day sha!icast its last rays upon a peopie rejoicing with exceeding great joy at the overthrow of moss-backism iu Missouri. That this overthrow is necessary for the pros- erity of the State is recognized by our merchants, armers and laborers. The necessity of this change was voiced by Gov. Francis when a candidate for nomination four years @g0. Hethen said in sub- stance: Lhe Democratic party of Missouri has been run long enough by the Colonels, old fogies and mossbacks of the party. Under their leadership the Democratic majority. which over 60,000, has been brought almost nothing. The Democratic party of Mi souri needs some new blood injected into its veins. It needs some new, vigorous and younger men atits head. ‘“‘If you will,’’ said the distinguished speaker, ‘‘retire these old parsy hacks to the rear—retire the colonels and the gen- erals for awhile—and nominate and elect some young and progressive Democrat tor Governor, yoa will cause,’ he exclaimed, ‘*thousanis to come to Mis- sourl from the barren and rocky shores of the Atiantigcoast and bring with thein miliions of capi- tal whi4h otherwise will not come.’’ The Governor was rf, tasto the existing evils in Missouri, but rong as to the remedy.

To bring the ‘‘thousands of immigrants and millions of cap- ital from the rocky shores of the Atiantic’’ of which Gov. Francis so eloquently spoke, requires the turning over of the State ministration to other than the Democratic party. To put one faction of the Democratic party out and anothar in will not produce the _ result. The entire must be put in quarantine for least four years. Thousands who voted for Gov. Francis four years ago will this year emphasize their desire forachange by either voting for the Repub- lican or the People’s party candidates. The People’s party will richly deserve its name if it does nothing more than to aid in lifting Missouri out ofthe sloughof despond into which it has been dragged by the Colonels and Brigadiersof which Gov. Francis spoke. The breath of idle scorn can not blow this new party aside. Having come to stay, it will, incommon with the Republican party, be made the target of ridicule and villification— weapons of desperate men championing a waning cause—weapons of those who appeal to the preju- dice rather than the judgment of the voters. If the office-holding Democracy would practice this yearin State-matters what it preachedin national affairs eight years ago, it would turn over State Gov- ernment to us, giving the people a chance for an ex- amination of the books. Itsslogan then was: **Turn the rascals out.’’ **Give the people an inspection of the books,’’ Wedo not desire to beso harsh as to say ‘‘turn the rascals out,’’ but we do demand that the dominant party retire to private life and give the peuple a chance to see how much more rascality has een perpetrated than has been brought to light, The impression prevails that half the facts about the > as State Treasury embezzlement have not been old, Honesty and efficiency of officials is best insured by a rotation of parties. The truth of this state- mentis demonstrated in the numerous defalcations and embexziements of State Treasurers throughout the Union. These embezzlements have taken place in States controlled by beastiv majorities—States in which a nomination was equivalenttoan election —States in which men seek the offices and not the offices the men—States in which men negiect their business for months, perambulating the country, invading hamiet and village, and after all securing nominations by combinations and intrigues. Men nominated under such circamstances. whether in this State or elsewhere, if elected, go into office un- der obligations to political bosses, ward-heelers, buimmers and thugs, obligations which they cannot avoid if they wouid, obligations which they are com- pelled to discharge at the expense of the public, obligations the keeping of which places in positions of confidence and trust men notoriously incompetent and often dishonest. So longas the public business is intrusted to such servauts incompetency, favorit- ism and corruption will be the result. THE CITY POLICE. In our cities there is no power that affects all classes nore than that exercised by the police force. Under the guardianship of this foree the person, property and freedom of the citizen are toa large ex- tentintrusted. The large powers given tothe police in their execution require the exercise on the part of each individual policeman of a wise and impartial! discretion. Before the powers with which the po- lice force are invested can be wisely exercised in a splrit of conservatism and impartiality, the force must be divorced from political influ- ences. In other words, the Boaru of Poiice Com- missioners and policemen when appointed must be- come conservators of the peace and cease to be ac- tive politicians. This reform, if it ever comes, J | must be inaugurated by the Governor asthe law Kansas | de- | now stands. That official has the power, if un- trainmeled in the selection,to appoint men as Police Commissioners whose business standing and high character will be a sufficient guarantee against the prostiution of the police force to the partisan work Oo: ward politicians. This change would be weicomed by eflicient chiefs and deserving policemen, of whom there are many. To inaugurate such a reform would be regarded by me asa high privilege, and one de- manding immediate action. So longas the control of the police foree is given to party bosses as a re- ward for packing caucuses, carrying primaries, manipulating delegations and controlling conven- tions, so long the force will be made up of men who establish a **pull’’ by aiding ‘*bosses’’ in their po- litical work, ‘ihe chief ambition ofa police force thus officered and constituted is to ‘‘run the town’? in its nomina- tions and elegtions. To dothis, citizens engaged in certain Classes of business who do the bidding of the bosses, are guaranteed special immunities and privileges. while to those engaged in like business, who refuse todo the bidding of the bosses, life is made a burden by theacts of petty oppression and tyranny of political policemen. .We are told by an editorialin the St. Louis *‘Republic’’ of May 8 of this year, that ‘‘under Gov. Marmaduke’s Adminis- tration the police force was less used for the pur- puse of ‘running the town’ than before or since. A partly successful effort was made to divorce if from politics altogether, It could have been made entirely successful had it been persisted in, but,’’ adds the editor. ‘‘unfortunately the temptation to set policemen to ao the work.of ward heelers has been too strong.’’ This arraignment of Gov. Francis’ appointees in St. Louis on the Board of Police Commissioners does not come from Repub- lican sources. This announcement is made lest some Democratic friend in the audience, in his enthusiasm, may make the mistake that a good Democrat made in Southern Missouri when a Re- pubiican speaker gave a quotation from the Script- ures which seemed to reflect on the Democratic ~tob he exciaimed: ‘**That is another —— Kadical ie.’ RECORDERS OF VOTERS. There is one other among the many appointments to be made by the Governor, to which Idesire to call attention, an appointment directly affecting every election held in our cities, and indirectly in- fluencing the result of every election held in the State. J refer to the Recorder of Voters. This It is made his duty as far as human power can con- it, to see that none but those entitled to the elective franchise shall vote. To secure | this result it becomes necessary for that official, if honest and competent, to purgethe registration list of dead men, non-residents and those who have il- legaily gotten their names upon the list. In doing this, if he is honest, he will consult no party boss, nor will he make inquiry as to the politics or coior of the man whose name is stricken from the list. Having purged the list ofits imperfections, it then becomes his duty in our cities to appoint judges and clerks of election. Ifthe Recorderof Voters is honest, he will ap- oint men of integrity, courage and incorrupti- ility, men who will not reject a legal vote, men who will not receive or conniveat others receiving an illegal ballot. Then, and not until then, will the crime against the elective franchise be checked in our cities. It is an open secret that professional **pluggers,’’ as they are cailed, at each election. vote in St. Louis and Kansas City hundreds, nay thousands, of dead men and non-residents whose names remain upon the registration list. The Gov- ernor can place the ax at the root of this evil. He cau stop this rape of the ballot box by the appoint- ment of suitable citizens as recorders of voters. Then, and lose of the of Voters means ward heelers and But so lon as they have a lien on the appointing power for potitical services rendered, they can throttle the will of their own party at the primaries, as well as the will of the people at the bailot box. Until Recorder of Voters ‘are appointed who will purge the registration list and appoint honest, capable and incorruptible judges and clerks of election, elections in our great cities will remain as now, but little better thas farces. There - and can be, no excuse for this condition of . affairs the Governor has the t¢ourage to do his duty by appointing officials who shall be a ‘‘terror to evii doers.’’ This can be done. The party which came into power in 1 State debt in round numbers ° . In 1870 it turned the State over to its successor with a debt of but $20,889,000, having given to the people found I | cratic pegs. ———- oe -— a period of five years of prosperity, a prosperity un- equaled before or since in the history of the State. There is much seif-glorification on the part of the dominant party in its congratulations to the people upon the reduction of the bonded debt of the State during its lease of power. A stranger within our gates, unfamiliar with the facts, would be led to be- lieve thatin some way the partyin control of the State, by an economical management of its affairs, had saved the monet with which its indebted- ness had been reduced. If economy has been prac- ticed within the last score and two years it has not been visible to the naked eye. The number of officials has gone on increasing from year to year. Holes have been made inthe treasury for Demo- The tendency of the perty in power has toward extravagange rather than retrench- ment and reform. It is” acainst this tendency, toe gether with the baneful infinmence exercised by that party in retarding immigration and capital from the State that the people rebel. PROFESSION AND PERFORMANCE. Before elections Democratic orators speak in glow- ing terms of ‘‘Jeffersonian simplicity’’ of the gooc daysof the Fathers. After eieciton they signally fail to practice what they preach. The difference in been | their profession and performanée is as greatas in the commencement and termination of Davy Crockett’s turnpike road. That historical road started out well macadamized, runninginto a dirt road, then into a farm road, then into acow path, then into a squirrel track, and upa tree andinto a hole. A few specimen bricks trom the dominant party’s structure of economy and Jeffersonian sim- pilicity may be selected, and when selected, may be considered with profit by the tax-payers. It isa DOopular delusion that the annual compensa- tion of the Chief Exeeutive of the State is but $5,000. This delusion arises from the fact that under the Constitution the Legislature is authorized to fix fhe salary of the Governor and other officers. Unaer this power the salary of the Governor is fixed at $5,000 a vear. Out of his salary an official is ex- pected to pay his household expenses; if the salary should be insufficient for this purpose, then to pay them out of his own pocket. There seems to besa departure from this rule in the case of the Governor. In the §years 1589 and 1890 there was appropri- ated of the people’s money for the ‘‘current ex- penses of the Governor’s Mansion $10,000.°’ The saine Legislature appropriated $11,000 for repairing and furnishing the mansion, thus showing that the $10,000 was to be used for household expenses. In the years 189] and 1892 an appropriation of $10,000 ofthe moneys in the State Treasury was again made for “current expenses for the Governor’s Man- sion.*’ Amongthe many curtousitoms included ih the ‘*‘current expenses for the Governor’s Man- sion,’’ is found acharge for an encyclopedia. This work naturally was deemed indispensable to a Lemocratic executive's library after Mr. Cleveland’s liberal extracts frémit. ‘‘Sundries’’ appear em frequentiy, whether wetordryis not stat-d. his doubling >of the Governor’s salary by indirection in the payment of his household expensesis an abuse that has creptinto appropriation bills since the aom- inant party entered upon its career of pretended economy. DEMOCRATIC EXTRAVAGANCE. ‘*A new broom sweeps clean.’’ In obedience to this adage the present Governor, shortiy after his inauguration expended $1,698.35 in furnishing his office. The Secratary of State in some manner man- aged to get over $2,400 worth of new furniture into his office, while the Auditor, Treasurer, Register of Lands ana Railroad Commissioners got along with $3,306.55 worth of new furniture. For the years 1889 and 1890 the appropriation for the Governor's office as *‘contingent expenses’? was $2, .. For the next two years this was increased to $4,000. If we are to have style we must pay for It. The appropriation in. 1891 and 1892 for the costs paid by the Staite in criminal cases amounted to the enormous sum of $550,000. This sum, great as it is, does not more than halfteilthe tale. From the best estimates lamabie to obtain, the amount of crim- inal costs paid by the State is more than equaled by the aggregate amount paid by the counties. Iam constrained to believe that the estimate given of the costs in criminal cases paid by the counties is an under, rather than an overestimate. In the county of Jackson alone the amount paid in 1890 and 1891 was over $100,000. This isthe field in which the ‘‘fee grabber’’ revy- els. Itis the feld in which retrenchment and re- form is demanded. This retrenchment aud reform will nevercome until] there is a ‘‘general house- cleaning’’ in the political management of our State and localaffairs. There must be a shaking up of the ary bones of the dominant party. This house- cleaning, this shaking up. is demanded in the inter- est of the tax-payers. In the line of criminal costs, I desireto call your attention tothe factthat for the years 1891 and 1892an appropriationfor the payment of officers, guards and other employesof the State Peniten- tiary was $175,000; whilefor the years 1881 and 1882 the apyropriation was but $80,000, It is the favorite refuge for place hunters who have failed elsewhere. Numerous cases similarto those stated could be given iliustrating the false pretenses of the domi- nant party’sciaim to economical administration. It is therefore evidentthat whatever of reduction in the State debt has been made, thatit is not the re- sult of economy in expenditure of the people’s money by their servants. Its reduction was coin- menced under the lawsadopted prior to 1870. At- tention here is called to the fact thatafter the party that enacted these laws had gone out of power fora : debt increased. On Jan. 1, 20,889,000, That is, bt $ he Republican party of $15,205,908 in six years. was the failure on the part of the dominant party to carry out the wise legislatiop enacted by the Republican party prior to 1870 that caused the provision to be inserted in the Constitution of 1875, making a reduction of the pond- edindebtedness of the State of $250,000 a year obli- gatory. COLLECTING MORE MONEY. If the present Administration has reauced the debt in smeadh of the $250,000 a year, it has not been by practicing economy, but by collecting from the people a greater interest tax than was necessary to yay the interest upon the State debt, and to secure tts reduction $250,000 annually as provided in the Constitution—a policy which, in my judgement, should not be continued. The State can borrow money at3Zand 3% Pee cent, while the tax-payers must pay from 6 to 10 per cent. Gentiemen, in their personal zeal to show what great things their party Das done for the people, say that the bonded debt of the State on July 1 1892, was but $6,830,000. This statement they roil as a sweet morse! under their ue. Itis inserted inthe Democratic platform. @ tax-payer’s at- tention is eloquently called to this reduction of the State’s indebtedness. Such sa statement is a piece of political juggiery. made for the purpose of de- oofving the p! The factisthat on the lst da of July the $6, 830,000 ton T 9 soe weetned by bonds, and =o 92 by certificates outstanding. These mpl ewe Mla Om money that the State had ob- tained from the school and seminary funds, money which it used in paying its bonds. Under an act of Congréss, @pproved March 2.1891, $6.646,958.33 was returned to the State, being the balance due on the direct tax levied during the war. This money was used by the State in the redemption ofits bonds. That is, the State received the money from the General Government, incorporated it into the ‘*seminary ‘fund, fund held in trust for the support of the State University. The State issued its certificate of indeptedness, bearing 6 per cent interest, in favor of the seminary fund nd gg used the money receivea from the general Government in purchasing its bonds ata premium, and bearing & low rate of interest. In this manner over $650,000 of the bonded indebtedness was paid, Upon this plece of financiering the domi- nant party congratulates the people. Of this tran- section 1 have this to say: That the money repaid b the general Government was raised by a tax upon the ople aft e at the time of collection.

To enable the State to redeem its bonded. indebted- ness last-year, it levied and collected from the peo- ple 5 cents on the $100 of taxable property in excess of what it was entitled to levy and collect under the Constitutéon. REDUCTION OF TAXATION. But, say my Democratic friends, we are entitled, at least, tothe credit of having reduced the rate of the State revenue from 20 i cents on each $100. bear igvestigation. I will - mit that you made the reduction, but that you did it reluctantly. It was not voluntary, but foreed from you. Forascore of years you have levied and col- ected 20 cents on the $100. Why have you been so tardy in making a reduction? In 1872 there was enly levied and collected 20 cents on the $100,and the rate has continued ever since un- til the special session of the last Legislature. The assessed vaiue of property has gone on increasing for twenty years, during all of which time you haye failed to reiieve the people of one farthing in the rate of taxation on State revenue until you were forced to do so by the provision of the Consti- tution which provides ‘*That whenever the taxable property of the State shall amount to$ n ° ° thejrate shall not exceed 15jcents.’’ The taxable prop- erty having reached the constitutional limit, you were compelled to make the reduction, a reduction which you should have made at the regular session of the Thirty-sixth General Assemuoly. In 1872 the taxable property was assessed at less than two-thirds of what it was in 1890. Yet, by reason of the increase in office-huldersand extrava- gant expenses, you were unable, as well as un- willing, to reduce the rate of taxation. ‘'The Lord loveth a cheerful giver,’’ but you do not come within the rule. You heid ontothe 20 cent rate of taxation with bull-dog tenacity until. you were compelled to let go. Your act in reducing the rate of traxation is not even entitled to the credit, et as it is, given to a death-bed repentance. You did not repen!, but simply yielded when compelled to by the organic law of the State. Hadit not been for the burning of the State University, together with the political exigencies for gerrymandering the Congressional districts, necessitating, as you thought, an extra session of the Legislature, you would to-day be violating the plain provision of the Constitution by collecting from the peopie 20 cents on the $100 of assessed taxable property, when un- der the Constitution you could collect legally only 15 cents. Where is the necessity, my Democratic friends, of taking fromthe people in 1990 forthe purpose of paying the **current expenses’’ of the State Govern- ment, in round nambers, $1,600,000, when in 1872 $1,000,000 was sufficient for those expenses? In view of the case made against you by your own acts, however strong yuur declarations may be for re- trenrchment and reform, the people will put you on probation forat leastfour years. In demanding a change they will ‘‘stand up for Missouri.’’ T:1E PR! NING KNIFE. The people have determined to apply th | phe Knife, cutting off supernumerary oflicers and clerks, cutting down fees and the costs in criminal cases that a further reduction in the rate of taxation can be had, and the public service benefited thereby. In this determination of the people I am in full sym ae, Aa pledge myself toa free use of the praning nife. The ameunt appropriated for the years 1891 and 1892 for costs in criminal cases and the payment of salaries of the oflicers, guards and employes of the Penitentiary was $725,000. The share of the appro- priation for this year for Criminal Court and officers, etc., of the Penitentiary will nearly, if not quite, equal the appropriation by the State for the support ofthe public school svstem. agant expenditure the harvest is ripe for the im- proved mowing machine of reform. The latest act of the Missouri Leeislature in its in- famous gerrymandering of the Congressional dis- tricts, is its crowning act ofshame. All former ger- rymanders, however infamous, are made respect- able incomparison with this. It was conceived in political trickery and broaght fortn in partisan shame. It was a deliberate attempt to disfranchise, as to Congressional representation, the Republican, People’s and Prohibition parties in fourteen of the fifteen Congressional districts of the State, these pounce casting inthe aggregate, at the last presi- ential election, witnin a fraction of 50 per cent of the votes of the State, casting at the gubernatorial election a majority of the votes of the State. When the Democratic draughtsman traced upon the map the fifteen Congressional districts it looked as se it had been struck by chain lightning. The blind partisan may fall down and worship it without being guilty of idolatry, for it is not inthe ‘‘like- ness of anything that is in the heavens above or the earth beneath or the waters under the earth.’’ For this piece of political ledgerdemain $70,000 of the people's money was appropriated. The spirit of intolerance and proscription exhib- ited by the Thirty-sixth Generali Assembly in out- raging every sentiment of fair dealing by its gerry- imander was the same feeling that inspired tne dominant party in its attempt to prevent nomina- tion by voters of new parties in the way sanctioned by the wisdom of the past, unless such voters be- longed to a party that ‘*shall havecast at least 3 per cent of the entire vote cast within the said county, district or subdivision thereof.’’ The right ofany number of voters of any political .faith, with- out regard to the fact of whether they belong toa porty that has cast any votes theretofore, to assem- le inconventionand nominate candidates of their choice for any orall the offices, State or local, isa right that should be held inviolate. The candidates thus nominated should be granted all the rights and privileges asto the getting oftheir names agen tickets, as are granted to the candidates of the Re- puoliens. Democratic or any other ty. The jus- ice of this proposition is self-evident to all right- thinking men. The statute Sonad rene right should be repealed at the earliest possible day, as being violative of the —_— ofthe citizen and contrary to the génius of our institutions. AN UNFULFILLED PLEDGE. The statement that in lester and spirit this statute is un-American, the Democracy of Missouri in con- vention assembled at St. Joseph two years ago pre- tended toadmit. The party was then seeking votes to give itcontrol ofthe Legislature. To get these votes it engrafted into its platform a pledge to amend this intolerant statute so as to pérmit ‘‘any politics! party or any individual to place a ticketin he field without having given previous expression at the polls.’’ It gotcontrolof the Legisiature by an overwhelming majority. The Legiohates t and adjourned with this pledge unfulfilicd, and without even an attempt to keep it., Amendments of the statute regarding elections were passed, but the obnoxious, proscriptive and intolerant features referred to were untouched. Even the amendments that were adopted complicated rather than simpli- fied the ‘‘Australian ballot system.’’ At Jefferson City in its recent convention that party was as dumb as an oyster as to the right ‘*of any itical party or any person to place a ticket in the fleid without hav- ing given previous expression at the polls.’’ The people were duped by their specious promises two yearsago.

Of all the regularly enrolled and salaried political attorneys engaged by the rail- ronds t6 officer and operate § the Democratic party machine in Missouri @hd the railroad lobby at Jefferson City, Col. John H. Carroll of the Burlington, is the only one that is stupid enough to continue posing in the dual role of railroad lobbyist and Democratic boss. Last year he mm placed at the head of the Btate Committee's Ex- ecutive Committee, the position now held by Maj, Salmon, who has been authorized to cheese his own colleagues, It is hardly @fedible that Salmon will name Carroll as one. The question ~why Carrolishould be so honored instead of being requested to follow Phelps’ com- mendable example, could be answered only by explaining that Carroll had earned exceptional honor from the party by the lobby work he did in the last Legislature against the ‘‘fellow servant’’ bill, the weekly payment bill and other measures favored by the labor organisations.

It has, therefore, fio appeal to make to the voters except that of party fealty, which involves the support of a national policy distaste- ful to the great majority of Iowans.

The most dis- graceful exhibition of the use of the ma- chine in politics ever presented to the country was that made by the Republi- can President and his henchmen at Minne- apolis, and this State has witnessed some astonishing exhibitions of that kind. , —_” w-_ The Suveamnans and the Money Power. Congressman Tarsney'’s Remarks. There is no doubt bat wrongs exist and are daily Gone to workingmen by the choking, crowding, crushing power of money in the hands of men who employ them. It results in strikes, lockouts, riots, blood and public disturbance, I see ho reason why the gov- ernment can not, under the law and to proper but perfect limits, interfere. It would seem legal that if these concerns can be protected by law from foreign products coming to orush them, as Republicans say they can be and are, the law can go further and protect American workingmen from being crushed by these concerns inturn. It strikes me this resolution is feasible and just. War Upon Labor Unions. From the Cleveland Pisindealer, The war now being waged upon organized labor isafight against the force which has brought wages uptotheir present standard andis alone holding them there. The Car- negie company is willing totake back its old men, but they must go back as individuals, not as members of the Amalgamated Asso- ciation. It ig the test ofa long-contemplated and deep-laid plan to crush the power of the association. That accomplished, the men will bé helpless and must accept any wages offered. This is the real issue at Homestead. A Riot- Creating Force. From the Baltimore Manufacturers’ Record. For the Pinkerton men there is neither sym- pathy nor respect. Theyare a curse wher- ever they go, and their existence should no lotger be tolerated by law. There is some- thing startling inthe spectacie of a private concern licensed toconduct war, to shoot, club and kill foranybody who may payfor such services, They are essentially a riot- creating force rather than a peace-restoring power, and itis a wonder that the laws of our land have permitted them to conduct such business as long a& they have.

This narrows the contest to a straight fight between Neilson and McGill and, judging by the 0»pres- ent indications, the former will be nominated on the first ballot.

Jacob Schmidt, a stone-mason, and a citi- zen of some meana, has a grievance against the Police Department and the First District Police Court. He alleges in the first instance that at noon, Sunday, July 1, Pa- trolman Sloan approached him at Second and Gratiot streets and struck him in the neck for no geryete whatever. Afriend of his named Jacob Wartman ad- vised him toreportthe mattertothe Ohest- nut Street sub-Station, and Schmidt claims that he started to go to ae station but Officer Sloan overtook him and beat him severely in the presence of two oth- er officers.

, Tharkoay, Faly 28, 189.” FISHED IT OUT. Wi ac a el tektees tal e : Another Body of a Supposed Victim Taken From the River. BEPLOSION IN J. W. PETERS PLACE BY WHICH TWO MEN WERE INJURED. diene Charlies Humpert Badly Burned by Gas ~The Search for Young Muckley’s & Body Still in Progress—Theory That © the Gas Explosion in Peters’ Place Pro- _ duced the Explosion in the Sewer—Re- yah pairing the Damage. _ This morning Mill Creek Sewer yielded up . another victimof the explosion of Tuesday i afternoon, and the body of Clemens C. Krel- _ bohm is now atthe Morgue awaiting inquiry into the cause of the disaster. Kreibohm came to his fate as follows: He was a brother-in-law of Fuchs, where the explosion occurred. On Tuesday afternoon he went down to Carondelet, and as he did not show up at home that night, nor at his place of business, 316-318 Market street, yes- terday morning, his friends con- jectured that on his return from South St. Louis he had naturally dropped in to havea chat with Fuchs, and went down in the crash that followed the explosion under Fuchs’ place. it was there- fore thought extremely likely that his body would be found near where Fuchs’ had been. When, therefore, yesterday afternoon the excavators brought up Fuchs’ coat and vest, itseemed that they must soon come upon Kreibohm’s remains and there was consider able feverish excitement as the search pro- gressead. The slow and toilsome work of re- moving the debris was continued in the sewer under Fuch’s saloon until 1 o’clock this morning, bat Kreibohm’s body was not disclosed. By this time the obstructions to the current had been pretty well removed, and it was reasoned that the body would be likely to be swept down the sewer. A gang of sewer and water department men had been working all night in the Iron Mountain yards clearing the sewer of the ties and other debris that choked the channel and these were instructed ta pay particular at- tention to stuff lodging near the first open- ing, about 200 feet south of Third street and nearly opposite the N. K. Fairbank boiler- house. Here had lodged quite an obstinate mass of stuf? from attiove and it was a work of some difficulty to loosen ft. While engaged in this work a bedy floated to the surface. It was fished up and placed on the Danks and was at once identified as that of Kreibohm from the clothing and watch. Richard Shea, who was in charge of the sewer gang, says that tne body looked somewhat blue afd water-soaked, but there were no marks of buraing that he noticed, and he dd not know that any exam- ination was there made as to broken limbs orany other injuries which the unfortunate man may have sustained. A patrol wagon was sént for and the body wastaken to the Morgue. HUNTING FOR MUCKLEY. Relays of men in the city empley have beep working steadily in Fuchs’ cellarandin the Iron Mountain yardsever since the time of the. explosion. Interest at the Fuchs’ place now centers on the probability of find- ing the man supposed to be Mucgley. This is probably the last of those who were in Fuchs’ place when the explosion occurred and who can not be accounted for. If Muckley is in the ruins the body is guite certain to be found during the day. It may not be found, how- ever. A large amount of stuff is "plock- ing the sewer just. below the portion blown open by the explosion, and it wiil be a hard job to dislodge it. Muckley’s body may be wedged in there. When Idosened upit will certainly be picked up below, as men are stationed in the railroad yards to make a sal- vage of anything of value that floats down. The workmen say that they never had a more vexatious job than tocilear out the de- bris from these ruins. There is no room for a derrick to handle heavy articles, and everything had to be done by hand and sheer strength. Most of the stuf was in the water, andthe currentis fully as stron “ it is in the Mississippi and i man makes a misste or loses his Dalance, he is likely to find himgelf in six or eight feet of water, with a right smart chance of himself being swe down the torrent. To save work as much as possible, they let everything that will float take its chances down the sewer, to be rescued by the party below. But they surmise that the sewer may be blocked between og lace and the Iron Mountain opening; and it is proposed to send a man down with a skiff as — a itseems likely that the passage can ade, The Iron Mountain people are busily en- gaged to-day in improvising tracks over the ~ pox sewer through nearly 1,000 feet of their yards. This morning they Gerricked the freight cars out of the sewer, and made good progress toward a pro tempore trestle that will them to rua trains out of the Fourth street depot. Service from this station has been suspended since Tues- a afternoon, but the Carondelet trains e rub as usual, the terminus being at Main and Convent streets. The company hopes to make connecti.n with the Chouteau avenue depot this afternoon. EXPLOSION AT PETERS’. Ane@ther viction of the Mill Creek-Fuchs explosion turned wu ag Gay. His name is Charlies Humpert he also goes by the name of Charles Weiss, atter his step-father. He is at St. Mary’s Hospitai, ifteenth and Papin streets, from painfal but not dangerous burns recetved on Tuesday after- noon atthe exact time when Fuchs’ piace was blown up. The first account of Hunipert’s in- juries furnished a plausible ¢6xpianation of the explosion of Tuesday afternoon, It is conceded that an imménve volume of gas ot some sort, that had somehow gotten into the sewer or had beer generated there, somehow | took fre and exploded. But no one knew who touched the inflammable stuff off, or how ft came to be fired. The ‘‘Humpert | was as follows: rt was ah employe of J. W.

Central South Dakota begins its wheat harvest in about a week or ten days, and about Huron farmers are especially anxious. It has been estimated that from 200 to 400 la- borers are needed in every county in South Dakota east of the Missour! River. This means about 10,000 laborers. Southern Min- nesota needs help inthe harvest field also, and North Dakota will begin harvéstin in about two or three weeks. Altogether conservative estimates are that #,000 laborers are needed within the next month in order to harvest the immense grain cro of the Northwest. The acreage is a little less than last year, but the yleld promises to be equally great, ifonly the crop can be se- cured, in order to induce laborers to come to the relief of the wheat farmers of the ee all thé railroads in this section have nounced a special rate of $% from this city t to the Dakotas for farm laborers: The farmers also promise good wages and abundant work, threshing following close on cutting and giving many weeks employment at an average of $2a day. The fact that a large part of last year’s crop was lost through lack of sufficient farm ‘help emphasizes the need of the present, and Dakota and Minne- sota sends out a cry for help in the harvest fields. Steady employment can be had until late in the fall at good wages. GOOD CORN CROP ASSURED. Kawsas City, July 28.—Rains fellall over Kansas last night, assuring a corn cropin that State that has never been equaled. For the last week the farmers have been fright. ened over the prospects of losing their crop on account of the hot winds that have been sweeping over the State. In many parts, particularly in the southern section, hun- dreds of acres of corn had begunto turn brown under the withering influence of the sun. RAILWAY CONDUCTORS’ MEETING. A Committee to Confer With Manager &m ith—The Question of Federation. The Grievance Committee of the Order of Railway Conductors was efigaged to- day in bearing evidence in regard to the alleged crookedness among | conductors on railroads of the | Southwestern system. A committee has this investigation in charge, but as it was not ready to report, no definite action was taken. |The question of placing collectors on the | different roads was then considered and ' the point was raised that no official state. ment had yet been made by the ralirvad officials in regard to their intentions in this ‘respect. it soon developed that there was a very decided difference of opinion amon«e the conductors in regard tothe employment of collectors. Many, probably @ majority, were inclined to look upon such action as an , insult. Others were of the opinion that (it would a good thing tor the conductors, as it would not only lessen tieir responsibilities, but would put a stop to suca ' charges as are now in circulation.

Clay King, the Memphis lawyer who killed David Poston, and his attorneys pleaded for the petition of habeas corpus before Judge Jackson in the United States Court here today. Sheriff MeLendo of Shelby County appeared by At- torney-General Pickle for the State. The ar- gument was based on the fact that the jury which tried the case in the Mefiiphts court went Into Arkansas Guring the progress of the trial. In his opinion Judge Jackson held that King did not have a fair trial, and the jury, when itwent into Arkansas, was not a jury of Tennessee. This amotints to King’s uncon- ditional release. Judge Jackson éaid he would decide whether to release King by to- morrow. This is an ahexpected ending of one of the most famous eases ever tried in the United ——— GEO, J.

Local Politicians Robbed of Diamonds, Watches and Money. THE POLICE NOTIFIED AND LOOKING FOR THE PICKPOCKETS. ‘Collector Ziegenhein, Charles Gitchell and Messrs. Vogelsang and Mepham Among the Victims— Maj. Warner in the City— He Refuses to Discuss Democratic Charges — Gubernatoriel Candidate Stone on Maffitt’s Election—Local Pol- itics. The St. Louis Republicans who returned from the Sedalia rally last night fell into the clutches of a gang of pickpockets and are short about $1,200in money, diamonds and jewelry in consequence. Whether they were robbed in the crowds at night onthe Sedalia streets, or at the depot, or on board the train en route home, no one apparently can tell, but the one fact known is that they were ‘‘worked’’ for the aggregate stated. The list of losers as known to-day is as follows: City Collector Henry Ziegen- hein, pocketbook containing $160; Charles Gitchell, diamond stud valued at $200; Mr. Vogelsang, diamond stud valued at $400; Edgar H. Mepham of Recorder Hobbs’ office, diamond stud valued at $150; one St, Louisdn, whose name could not be learned, gold watch and chain valued at $250, These losses have been reported tothe St. Louis police, the authorities at Sedalia have been notified, and telegrams have been sent to other points for the purpose of locating the thievesif possible. There seems to bean Inability to fix the time or place at/which the robberies occurred. There isastory that the St. Louisian who lost the gold watch and chain discovered the loss before leay- ing Sedalia and notified the police. On the special train which brought the St. Louisans home, leaving Sedalia at 12:10 o’clock, the first intimation of thieves being at work was when Edgar Mepham, standing onthecar platform in a crowd, felta sudden wrench at his shirt front, and immediately afterwards saw that his dla- mond stud was gone. He gave the alarm through the car, and then Gitchell , found that his diamond stud was qa ‘so missing, andtheothers named discov- er, 2d theirlosses. Collector Ziegenhein was on the regular St. Louls train, leaving for St. Lou, ‘sat 12:15 this morning, and he did not miss his pocket-book until he reach “a his office in this city. He thinks it likely that the wallet may have dropped from th ® pocket of his trousers in the sleep- er berth,. and has telegraphed to the Puil- man com !uctor to make a search for It. This mc 'Tning Mr. Gitchell called at the Four ConrTts and reported the losses. Vogelsang a |so did the same, and itis stated that he ide.itified a picturein the Rogues’ Gallery as strongly resembling a man whocrowded him on the Sedalia platform just beforethe train left. It is the general police opiniém that a gang of pickpockets and ‘*‘swellk mob’’ workers are re- sponsible for the bosses of the now melancholy st. Souls Republicans. Detec- tive Applegate of St. Louis was at Sedalia esteriay anil there is a rumor that he effected the ar.rest of quite a noted ‘‘crook’’ in the crowd during the ceremonies of the day. This fact. however, affords the disconsolate st. -Louisans little comfort, as they do not believe it possible that ‘their ewely, etc., was ‘‘swiped’’ during the day, bot think the loss accurred at the depot at night, or on the special train, which contained a good many strangers. One of the roughest features of the raid on the Republicans is th at on the way to Sedalia on Wednesday morni ng they were all laugh- ing atthe similar mishap which befell the St. Louis Democrats \ rho went to the Demo- cratic Conventicn at. efferson City, and pro- claimed that Such thi. \#S never occurred to mar the Penest pleas: tres Of a Republican gathering.

Successful Filibustering Against the World’s Fair Gratuity. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 28.—Mr. Bingham of Pennsylvania, who, as a member of the Committee on Appropriation and the only of the House confrerees Who voted for it, has as- sumed the championship of the World’s Fair amendment to the sundry civil appropria- tion bill, and Mr. Outhwaite of Ohio, who has taken the lead of the filibusters, were in their seats early this morning marshaling their forces. Soon after the meeting of the House, Mr. McRee of Arkansas presented a confer- whereupon Mr. Dingley of Maine made the point of order that there was one conference report pending, alludingto the sundry civil bill. This was overruled. Mr. McMillan of Tennessee offered and called up in the House a joint resolution pro- viding for final adjournment of Congress on Saturday at2o’clock, Mr. Hatch of Missouri opposed it because he wantsthe anti-option bill to pass, and Mr. Outhwaite, the leader of the filibusters, also opposed it. Mr. Outhwaite saidthe sundry civil bill had not passed and intimated that it might pass. In any event time was needed for both Houses to act on it, and he suggested Mon- day next as the date for adjournment. Gen- eral speech making followed. The House refused, 65 to 110, to agree to an amendment fixing the date of adjournment ati2o0’clock Monday next. The original Mc- Milian bill, providing for final adjournment ofCongress at 2 p. m. Saturday, was then adopted, 121 to 51. The Speaker stated that the pending mo- tion to be made by Mr. Bingham of Pennsy!l- vania was totable the motion to reconsider the vote by which the House receded from its disagreement to the Senate World’s Fair amendment. Immediately the filibusters came to the front, led by Mr. Outhwaite, who moved an adjournment, supplementing this motion with one to adjournto Saturday. Mr. Cum- mings of New York acted as Heutenant, and moved an adjournment until Monday. The Republicans have about decided to allow the filibustering andthe anti-filibustering wings of the Democratic party to fight out the World’s Fair between them. On a motion for a call of the House they voted with neither party and the call was ordered bya small and close vote of 31 to 29. Two hundred and eleven members re- spondeito their names, and the vote re- curred on Mr. Cummings’ motion to ad- journ until Monday. The House was again left without a quorum, but 122 members voting, and agatn was called to order. This call showed the presence of 189 mem- bers. The scene of contest has expanded and the House to-day transferred some of the re- sponsibility of keeping in session to the senate. By a large majority a joint resolution was passed providing for an adjournment of Con gress on Saturday. Shouldthe Senate fix a date of final adjournment, the position of the filibusters, of course, would be much improved. The prevalling opinion is that the senate will notact on the adjournment resolution until the sundry civil bill is sent over to it. Mr. Bingham of Pennsylvania has offered, in the House, for reference to the Commit- tees on Rules the following resolutions to cut off the fillbustering: Resolved, Thaton Friday, July 29, imme- diately after the adoption of this resolution, the House proceed to farther consider the dis- agreeing amendments on the sundry civil appropriation biil, not already acted upon, that a count be at once taken and the pending motion to lay on the table the motion by which the House agreed to Senate amendment 30s; that immediately after the announcement of vote on tabling such motion to reconsider the House proceed to vote in concurring in senate amendments numbered 309, 310and 811, in the order named; and then on a motion to ask a further conference with the Senate on the disagreeing votes of the two houses on said bill, in the Senate to-day the Committee on Con- tingent Expenses reported a resolution fora committee of seven to inguire into the Homestead trouble, including the Pinkerton auestion; also the mining trouble in Idaho. Mr. Quay objected to the present consideration of the resolution andit Was laid over until to-morrow. Mr. Gallinger addressed the Senate on the dangerous condition of Washington theaters in case of fire or panic. Aspecial committee was appointed to in- vestigate the Bureau of Geological Survey. Mr. Wolcott of Colorado was Chairman. After spending one hour in passing bills on the calendar, among them an eight-hour law asto public works of the United states and ofthe District of Columbia, and one for the purchase of Mr. George Bancroft’s library, the anti-option bill was taken up by the Sen- ate at 2 p. m. to-day. Mr. Washburn moved to lay on the tabie Mr. Wolcott’s motion to refer it to the Com- mittee on Finance. Lost. The concurrent resolution for finaladjourn- mentat2p. m. on Saturday has been re- ceived fromthe House and is now on the Vice-President’s table. AMONG THE BROKERS.

The climax of the convention was reached when Mr. Ball addressed the chair and convention as follows: is Chairman, for ten days we have been trying to organize this convention, Sofarwe have falled, not be- cause Mr. Clark has nota clear majority of the delegates in this convention, but because of the arbitrary and unheard of dictations of the Congressional Committee in undertaking to dictate tothe convention what delegates were entitled to seats, We know that we have thirty-six regularly accredited delegates who hold credentials from the, proper Democratic authorities of the several counties, We do not propose longer to be dictated to, or to recognize any del- egate except those holding crédentials from the proper authorities. We have been, deprived of the representation that we are justly entitled. The CongressionalCom mittee have, without right or authority, dic- tated, ortried to dictate, not only who the officers should be, but what delegates‘ should have seats. We have been refused the opportunity to prove to the convention thatthe Crawford County Con- vention was regular and fairly elected, by refusing to hear our witnesses. Every prop: osition offered by Clark’s followers to refer the contest to the Democracy of this district has been rejected. Several of the Nortcn leaders have publicly admitted -in this convention that the delegates here in the interest of Mr. Norton were not entitled to seats, and yet they vote to seat them. Having failed to organize by reason-of the foregoing and believing we have a clear majority of the delegates elected, we now refuse longer to inany way recognize tie contesting delegates from Crawford County and ask the Secretary to come to this side of the hall, and I now place in nomination Mr. A. W. Stewart as temporary chairman of this convention and ask the Secretary to call the roll of counties, ’’ Mr. Dobyns, the Secretary, then came over onthe Clark side of the house, Mr. A. W. Stewart of Audrain was tes 7 elected tem por- ary chairman. The Committee on Creden- tials reported that the regularly elected delegates from Crawford were entitled to seats in the convention. The temporary organization was then made permanent after which Hon. Champ Clark was nominated for Congress, No Other nominations being made, the Secretary was ordered to call the roll, which resulted as follows: ewe eS 5 u in regard to the oe | geass wae B, depressing the stock.

LOUIS. A Pronunciation Match at Summit Avenue Church—K. of. H. Meeting. A pronunciation match, something that is extremely novel inthis part of the country, was given last night at Summit Avenue M. HK. Church, in East St. Louls. Grown men and women, young boys and girls, stood up in line to be “pronounced down,’’ instead of **spelled down,’’ as the saying was former years when **spelling matches’’ were in vogue. The match was conducted under the auspices of the Epworth League and the prize was a nice watch charm inthe shape of a cross inscribed with the League motto, *‘Look up, lift up.’’ To begin with, the large party of leaguers and their friends chose sides Fifty words in common use that are often mispronounced were given out by the master of ceremonies, who did not pronounce them,but simply spelled them letter by letter. Buta short time was required to ‘‘down’’ one of the sides and then the real contest began. Those who desired to compete for the prize formeda ciass and heard the words to be pronounced called from alist of 150 prepared by Profs. Manners and Lan- ham, prominent East St. Louis pedagogues.

After a patient, weary search extending over the Western Continent and covering a period of nearly forty years, Charles Hartley of Oswego, N. Y., a few days ago endeda eriod in his eventful life by arresting Allen lartley, a cousin chargea with the murder of his wife two-score years ago, says an LEilen- wood (British Columbia) correspondent, The man arrested is an old resident of this city, having lived here nearly twelve years. He served twoterms as Mayor and has been successful tn the accumulation of a comforta- ble fortune. Four years ago he marrieda well-known lady ofthis place. Back of it is a story tinged with romance and sullied by acrime soremarkablein its details that it furnishes a chapter in criminal history. Allen Hartley is now a man or nearly 70. When his locks were raven and his beard was poung he married a charming young lady, the elle of the small interior townin New York where they both resided, Charles Hartley, the cousin, who yesterday, after such a lapse of years, caused the arrest of Allen, was an unsuccessful suitor. Though denied all hope by the marriage of his cousin with the girl, he still loved, and this flame, kept burning through the years, caused the tracking down and arrest of the wife murderer. Thirty-nine years ago next May Hartley bade his friends a hasty farewell, and at the same time informed them that with his wife he was zoing West toseek his fortune. No ore saw the couple leave the town, and finally murmurs of something wrong in- creased toopen gossip. Charges of foul play were freely made, but there were none to prove them, and at length they died away. When, later, the house in which the Hart- leys had lived was being repaired, and there was foundin a cemented vault beneath it the skeleton of Agnes Hartley, the town went mad. But the murderer was gone anu there was no trace. Charles Hartley swore to hunt him down if it took a lifetime and his fortune.

There are no mountain slopes in the world so covered with vineyards, farms and vil- lages as those of Mount ktna. About 300,000 people live on its sides. They have become accustomed to the dangers that always threaten. The richness of the soll, formed ofdecom, posed lava and vegetable mold, has madé the slopes of Etna one of the garden spots of the world; and so the people cling to their mountain home, though they do not know how soon they may be driven away. Etna is on the eastern seaboard of Sicily. Its height is 10,874feet. From its summit the sea and country around can be seen fora distance of 150 miles, affording one of the most magnificent of prospects. The gently flowing lavas which reared the mighty mountain covered a large area, and the road which runs around the lower slopes is eighty seven miles long. tIwocities, Catania and Aci Reale, and sixty-three towns or villages are built around the base or on the slopes. The first eruption within historic times is believed to have occurred seven centuries before Christ. Twelve eruptions of import- ance, some of which created great destruc- tion, are recorded as occurring before the Christian era.” One of the most disastrous outbursts occurred in 1169 A. D., when Cata- nia was destroyed in a few minutes and 15,000 people were buried beneath the ruins. It was the day ofthe feast of Agatha, and the Ca- thedral of Catania was crowded with people, all of whom were buried by the overwhelm- ing stream of lava. The victims included several Bishops and forty-four Benedictine monks. A still more destructive outburst, though it was not marked by so greata discharge of lava, occurred in 1693, when a violent earth- quake shook Catania tothe ground, burying 18,000 inhabitants. Fifty towns in Sicily were destroyed, anditissaid that at least 60,000 people perished. During the eighteenth century quite a num- ber of eruptions occurred, some of great vio- lence, though most of them did little dam- age. Duringaneruption in 1832 a number of people were watching the progress of the lava, when the frontofthe stream was sud- denly blown out as by an explosion of gun- powder. The red-hot mass was hurled in ey- ery direction, and a cloud of vapor developed everything. Thirty-six people were Killed on the spot and twenty survived but a few hours. In 1852 a party of six English tourists were surprised by a very violent eruption as they re ascending the mountain. This outburst continued for nine months. The tourists were ascending from Nicolosi to witness the sunrise from the summit. As they ee nones the upper hut, known as Casa Inglese, the crater commenced to give forth ashes and flames of fire. Suddenly an earthquake shook the mountain, andthe mules fied in terror, The tourists hastenew eo, the mountain n ned Nicolosiin satrety. e Out of the eighty-four eruptions on record,a comparatively small number have been of extreme violence, while many have been of a slightand harmless character, Eruptions occurred in 1868, 1869, 1869, 1874, 1879, 1883 and 1886, the most violent of which were thoSe of 1865 and 1876. The outburst of 1886 destroyed vineyards and farm lands valued at $250,000.

Facific Coast Shipments Going by Way of the Horn. NEW YORK, July 28.—There ig great alarm among the transcontinental railroads, for they are not getting any of the lower class of heavy freight except what has to be deliv- ered within a limited period, The steamship companies engaged in the New York.and San Francisco trade are havihg a war of rates that has taken the breath away from the railroads, and probably their business will be demoralized fora year to come. The trans- continental railroads have to pay the trunk lines 30 cents a hundred as their share of the haul from New York to San Francisco. The trunk lines will not take a cent less. Besides, the Western roads must have an allowance for the haul to the Missouri River. The trans- continental roads have thrown up their hands on all staple articles which do not need to be delivered for several months. Even the Southern, with the Morgan line to New Orleans, cannot make any show against the 30-cent rate of the through steamship lines. Todoso would be to drag down the local rates from New York to Texas, and the loss would be still greater. Here is the inside history of a neat trick perpetrated by Mr. J. 8. eds, who, as traffic manager forthe Missour! Pacific Rail- road, was figuratively beheaded by the Little Wizard at the orderof the Western Traffic Association for cutting rates. Just at that time the merchants of the Pacific Coast, tired of paying what they considered exorbitant rates on freight, organized a protective asso- ciation and held outatempting bait to Mr. Leeds in the shape of a $10, salary and he will try to become its chairman. One of the plans that Leeds evolved to coerce the railroads that had thrown him out was simple, He chartered for the Merchants’ Association several fast clipper ships of 3,000 tons at $7 or so a ton, and a few days ago vut them on the route between New York and San Francisco, via the Horn. Then he cut the estab- lished rate of the reguiar lines— such as the Southern Pacific mail vessels—in two, and again reduced the re- mainder to furnish a rate that suited the keen appetites of the Californians. The re- sults wasa 30 cent commodity rateon the lower classes. This is a dull season, but ton- nage doubled in a very short time. The 0. EB. Moody, tbe first clipper to load, is now on her way down the coast. The clipper Live- oaks is loading, andthe Emily Reed is char- tered by the Merchants’ Association to fol- low. But these vessels have not a monopoly of the business. Two other clipper lines had to meet the 30cent rate inorder to makea showing. The Atlantic & Pacific Steamship Co.and Barber & Co.’s lines immediately followed suit. The Pacific Mail Steamshi Co, also joined the rate-cutters with a tari nearly as low as the clippers. Reductions were made in all classes of freight from pickles to dry goods, and Mr. Leeds’ scheme has proved a success in the fullest sense of theterm. Asfaras staple articles are con- cerned, which areas good six months from now as at present, the California merchants don’t care whether the . transcontinental roads continue or not. Some freight from points as far west as Kansas. City, destined for California, has been at first shipped to New York by rail and thence by the way of the Horn to its destination. It-.is cheaper to send low class freight 17,000 miles out of the way than to ship it direct by rail from Kan- sas City to California. $12.00 to Denver and Return Via Missouri Pacific Railway.

Railroad Land Opened for Homestead in California. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., July 28.—Seven hun- dred and fifty thousand acres of land in San | Benito and Monterey Counties and which, according to the act of Congress of Sept. 29, 1890, reverts to the government by reason of the failure of the Southern Pacific Railroad to complete a certain portion of its line within the specified time, was thrown open to settlement yesterday under the home- stead act and a large number of filings were made at the Land Officein thiscity. Ex- citement attended the opening of the land. The settlers in farm wagons have been pass- ing through town continually night ana day, going to and coming from the County Clerk’s office at Hollister. These were generally old settlers, who have no doubt of being able to prove their residence on land and cultiva- tion of it. A number of San Francisco land hunters who have rushed into the county during the past week, have gone to San Fran- cisco to make entries at the Land Office. This town is crowded with land seekers, who have not yet taken selections, but many of whom are waiting for the stage to depart for Banoche and Vallecitos, where the squatters think are the choicest places for settlement. The old-timers are affected very little by the opening of the land, but new comers are nervous and excited. There has been no vio- lence outside of afewfights. A few hardy women are here to take up claims, and will probably secure lands. Hotel St. Louis on Lake Minnetonka, Now open under the management of Mr. W. G. Johnson.

The chief island of the group has been claimed by the PacifiCc Guano Co. of San Francisco, which raised the American flag overit sev- eral years ago. The only explanation of England’s action is that the American com- ny has abandoned the island, because the ‘have exhausted the guano, and England in- tends to take possession in order to secure a station*for her new cable from New Zealand to Honolulu.

COTTON CROP. Heavy Rains Will Materially Reduce the - Yield. MEMPHIS, Tenn., July 2.—The Fontaine & Co., will say: The weather during the month has been unfavorale for cotton and for the season up * to this period 326 out of the total of 340 replies * report it much less favorable than last year. Excessive rains fell during the entire month °* The result. of June and the first half of July. is shown In the backwardness of crops. Only twelve report the season earlier than last ’_— year, while 3824 report it later and four the same, and plies makes the season fully days later. The continued rains also materially reduced the as was given in our May report. four States much of the bottom lands that were planted in cotton have been overfiowed, » which necessitated their abandonment. This is particularly true of the condition of affairs as reported from Arkansas and Mississippi, » which States seem to have suffered most. « The present condition of the cotton crop is anything but good, ble to work and the result is thata ve large percentage of flelds are fililed grass and 325 of the latter report crops not in near so 00d condit as last year. Owing to the weather, the plant is not forming, blooming and bolling well. Taking the responses asa whole, prospects for cotton in the. district were never less promising at this period, and the yield even under the most favorable con- ditions from this time forth must necessarily be largely decreased from what was reasona- bly anticipated inthe early part of the sea- son. Corn has suffered but notto the same great extent as cotton, but the increased acreage that was devotedto this cereal at the expense of cotton will compensate ina measure the damage sustained on account of the unfavorable weather.

The animal that is at present attracting nore attention in turf circles all over the mntry than any other, not even excepting ") “us Daly’s Tammany, the great Eastern — -k, is Chris Smith’s magnificent daughter >) 2e Hooker and Marian, Yo Tambien. The = at desire of the sporting world to-day Is "see these two cracks measure strides. It " uld be'a battle royal between the East and _ 3 West. Yo Tambien would, of course, be P33 not believed any horse in America can concede Smith’s: speedy filly weight and defeat her. In view of the great amount of interest the animal has aroused by ber remarkable performances this season, the following short sketch of her career will undoubtedly be read with much interest by followers of the turf: Yo Tambien is a chest- mut filly,and was foaled in 1889. She was bred by Theodore Winters, and ig by Joe Hooker, son of Monday, by Colton, by Lex- ington, and Mayflower, by imp, Eclipse, son of Orlando, by Touchstone. Yo Tambien’s Gam, Marian, the dam of King of Norfolk, Emperor of Norfolk, El Rio Rey, Rey-del- Rey, etc., by Maicolm, son. of imp. Bonnie Scotiand, and Lady Lan- caster, by imp. Monarch, granddam Mag- gis Mitchell, by imp. Yorkshire, out of Charmer, the best daughter of imp. Glen- coe, she out of the noted Betsey Malone, by Stockholder, Yo Tambien is a chestnut with @ stripe of white down her face and white ground the coronet of the near front foot. The name of Yo Tambien means ‘‘I Also’’ OF **‘Me Too,.’® She is one of the best of her famous dam’s produce, and has‘already won ~— season nearly $30,000. She has a distin- guished turf lineage, as she is from enaiee As @ and producing families on both sides. times, two-year-old she started thirteen of which she won eight races. This year she has shown marked improvement, and has proved that she is not only fleet of foot, but astayer, for her race for the Great Western Handicap, at a mile and a half, which sherar in 2:33%, is only half a second behind Firenzi’s record. Her performance is better in every way than Firenzi’s, asthe last mamed mare was six years old and carried less than weight for age (117), while Yo Tambien carried a penalty. She has startedasa 3-year-old ten times, and has suffered only one defeat, when Bashford beat her for the Merchants’ Stakes at Latonia, but she was conceding him ten pounds and sex allowance, She was on this occasion beaten only half a length, the mile and an eighth being made in 1:53. Yo Tambien’s eight victories this year com.- prise asweepstake for 3-year-olds at Lato- nia, the Tobacco Stakes and a purse race at the same meeting, all of which were ata mile. She next wonthe Garfield Park Derby atamile and a quarter carrying 127 pounds and beating Wadsworth, Azra anda good field in 2:40%, but the track was in such ter- rible condition that no estimate of merit can be gained from the time made. Her next win was in the Boulevard Stakes, for all ages, at Washington Park, Chicago, which she won easily from Farraday, Santiago, etc., running the mile in 1:48. At the same meeting a few days later she won the Drexel Stakes, also at a mile, beating Galindo, Chief Justice and Carisbad, and winning with great ease in 1:42 with 122 pounds up. This victory she followea by winning the Great Western Handicap, also at the same meeting, on July 14, when she accomplished the feat already referred to above, andon July 19, carrying #9 pounds, won a purse, 11-16 miles, in 1:454¢, thus lowering the record by halfa second, the best previous rec- ord = at the distance being 1:46, Tuesday she captured the Twin City Derby, which was decided overaone and one-quar- ter mile course, from such good ones as New- ton and Bolivar Buckner in the handilest kind ofamanner. The race was runin a drizzling rain storm,in consequence of which the track was extremely heavy and the time (2:17) very slow. ‘These performances stamp the great daughter of Joe Hookerand Marian as a dangerous rivalof the best 3-year-olds of the East, barring not even the great Tam- many, who Matt Byrnes says is the. greatest horse he has ever handled, which meansa great deal, especially when it is remembered that Byrnes handled the great Salvator. THE POLK BADGET CASE RECALLED. Little Keith, the jockey who died in Chicago Tuesday, the result of injuries sustained in a fall at Garfield the day before, rode the ringer, Polk Badget, last fall, When the bet- ting ring at Latonta was beaten out of nearly $20,000. Little Keith had nothing to do with the crooked work. He was simply engaged to ride the horse. He knew nothing about the identity of Polk Badget and was not ruled off, as were the Brannons, who engineered the job. EAST ST. LOUIS JOCKEY CLUB.

Willlams, man- agerof the Olympic Club of New Orleans, saysthathe isnot eager to secure some one to fight Bob Fitzsimmons just for the sake of the club making money, but to keep faith with the sporting public. He says Chas. Noel, the President of the ciub, decided to have three championship fights on Sept. 5, 6 and 7 and he Is eager to aot his word.

PUGILISTIC POINTERS. Harry Dailey,a California bantam, wants to meet Bill Piimmer. Jerry Barnett will meet Pimmer before the Coney Island A. C. on Aug. 8. The gq should be a good one. The backers of Needham, who was defeated in twenty-nine rounds by Dawson, the Aus- tralian, at San Francisco, Tuesday night, offered yesterday to posta forfeit and side wager for another fight with Dawson. There is some talk of matching Dawson against the winner of the McAuliffe-Myer match or Jim- my Carroll, In regard tothe Coney Island Club raising the bid fora contest between Pritchard and Hall to $15,000, President Noel of the Olympic Club yesterday stated that the club wouid meet the offer, but would not raiseit.

Shoriand rode 415 miles on a geared @rdina- ry during the twenty-four-hour path race at Herne Hill track, London, last Saturday, a wonderful performance. This is forty more miles than was recently ridden in the Windy City. The Chicago man’s record still Stands as as the safety record, although his performance is almost totally eclipsed. Shorland’s performance will put a stop to ambitious youngsters and older men who were contemplating sucharide. The practli- cability of the geared ordinary as a long-dls- tance mountis now pretty well established. it was but recently that 8. F.

A number of the prominent English ciubs have abandoned their road race fixtures, owing to the little interest manifested in these events. Osmand’s sulking and refusing to ride against Zimmerman has greatly tried British sports. He has had many opportunities to meet the American rider, but in all instances has avoided him. THE OAR.

Goff, had the standards been the same asthey were in 1891, would have been in it, as hethrew the 56-pound weight 18 feet 9 inches this year—last year’s standara being 18 feet. M. O. Sullivan, the winner, has been a competitor in the all- around championshipfor very many years, and is certainly deserving of his victory. KE, W. Goffis thinking of challenging him for another contest. itis believed that before the next year’s all-around championship comes around there will be a change in the standards or some other system adopted to arrive at the average excel- lence of an all-around competition. The English ehamplonship meeting held at London, July 2, was successfully carried out. The New Zealand champions competed, but falied toscore better than third in any of the events. W.J. M. Barry, who is well known on this side, won the two weight events. None of the other performances, with the exception ofthe one mile and four mile races, was outofthe ordinary. J. Kib- blewhite won the four-mile run‘in 19m. 50 8-58. and H. Wade the mile run in 4m, 19 1-5s. SCUVENIR SILVER SPOONS, $1 TO $10, souvenir cups, 75 cents to $5. See the dainty novelties at .

Numerous instances could be givem of the numer of business questions that can be ais- ed of in a single talk over the wires with- | the minimum t me five minutes. Prob- ably the best on record isthat where two business men, one In New York andone in Boston, discussed and settied four enti distinct affairs in one minute anda ball. Two of the matters dealt with involved 1a sums of money, but the men were abie to their heads together, figuratively speaking, s0 well, although literally they were 80 far | apart,that it took them but a few seconds fn each case to decide on what should he done. It can reAdily be imagined how many tele- grams would have been required to ao the same amount of business, leaving entirely aside the question of time, which is often of the first importance. Every day cases occur where the tong distence telephone enables business to be done that the telegraph can- not aid, and where the only alternative would be a long and expensive Journey. For instance, not long agoa New York man was notified that his draft ona house in a town far up in the interior of the State had been allowed to go to protest, and in order to pro- tect his interests he was on the point of un- dertaking a journey that would have kept him away from his office for three days, when a friend advised him to telephone to the bank which held his draft. He did so immediately; the bank informed him of the state ofaffairs and recommended a lawyer in the town to take the job in hand; he had an interview by telephone with the lawyer and gave him instructions to proceed, and the same afternoon the lawyer reported that he had gotoutan attachment and that the draft would be fully covered. The time spent by the New York man over the affair might have been an hour, andthe total ex- penve was forthree conversations, one with he bank and two with the lawyer, as against an absence from town oftwo or three days, and traveling expenses amountingto #40 or $50. The actual saving of time and money is by no meansthe only recommendation in favor of long distance telephone communl- cation. Often it renders possible the trans- action of business which could be done in no other way, and manyatimeafive minutes’ conversation pays for itself a thousand fold. To manufaciurers having their head offices in New York, branches in other cities and towns and factories somewhere in the coun- try the service has become een indis- pensable; the periodical daily talks between the chief of the firm and the manager of the factory or branch office piace all their affairs so thoroughly intouch with each other that no mangfacturing concern who has once adapted the service to its needs would be without it for a single day were the cost twice what itis. Bankers, brokers and lawyers form another large class of patrons, but it was among the manufacturers that the long distance telephone first *‘caught on,’’ and they have steadfastly availed themselves of it from thetime of its establishmefht as a commercial means of communication. POLLY WENT ON A LARK, A Philadelphia Parrot Takes a Vacation but Is Stopped by a Crow. Polly Mitchell, 270South Fourth street, re- turned homethe other day after an unex- pected absence of three days, and the Nine- teenth District police were busy until late in the evening transmitting congratulations to their superior oficer for the recovery of his much- prized parrot, says a Philadelphia dis- patch tothe Pittsburg Dispatchk. Nothing was heard from her until Sunday, when she was discovered by several small boys perched on the limbof a tree in St. Peter’s graveyard, Fourth and Pine streets, shouting at the top of her voice, ‘‘Polly Mitchell!’’ **Polly Mitchell!’’ Lieut. Mitchell heard of the location of the missing bird and repaired tothespot, Aftercarrying into effect every scheme his mind could devise calculated to dislodge the bird, and listening with characteristic patience toa thousand or more suggestions from the neighbors and thelr numerous progeny, the owner of the obstinate Polly gave up the at- tempt. The bird retained her position throughout the night, and early in the morning the juveniles before referred to held a council of war and renewed the attack. A continuous bombardment was kept up during the morning, during which ailthe loose cobble- stones within several squares and an air gun were called into requisition. It was proposed to summon Battery Ato the spot and try the effect of Gatling guns, but its absence at Gretna nipped this proposal in the bud, and the bird would in all probability still be in the tree but for the opportune arrival of a crow. The crow scented Polly and swooped’ down upon her with hostile intent. Polly met the crow ialf way and there was a thrilling mida- air battle, during which several of Polly’s beautiful feathers fluttered to the ground. After retreating to Fifth street Polly at- tempted to return to the foliage ofthe grave- yard, but the crow blocked the way and after a short trip tothe northward Polly dropped into Union street tuckered out. A fireman from the Union street truck house rescued the bird and received a vicious bite on his right thumb, Polly was then turned over to her owner. A Horrible Accident.

St. Lonis Post-Dispatch, Thursday, July 28, 1899, REDUCED 10 FORTY. — A Recount Cuts Down Gladstone's Majority in Parliament. THE GRAND OLD MAN GREETED HEART- ILY IN LONDON, Russian Official Reports Show Nearly Fifteen Hundred Deaths From Cholera in Three Days—Sensational Incidents at the Trial of Anarchists—King Os- car’s Dilemma—Foreign News. LONDOX, July 28,—Mr. Gladstone arrived in this city yesterday. Whey he alighted from the train at the Euston Station, he was given an ovation by thousands of his supporters, who had gathered on the station platform to greet him. Mr. Gladstone looked to bein good health, and smilingly acknowledged the reception accorded him. He was then taken in an open carriage, which was in waiting, and betrayed some symptoms of nervousness when an eager partisan crowded his way to the side of the carriage and began slapping him on the back. He at once ordered the coachman to drive off quickly. A second count of the votes cast inthe recent election in Greenoch, Scotland, for member of Parliament, shows that Thomas Sutherland, dissident Liberal, received 2,942 votes, against 2,887 cast for Mr. John Bruce, his Liberal opponent, while the first count showed Bruce had been elected, This change in the result reduced Mr. Gladstone’s ma- jority in the House to forty, still counting upon the election of the Gladstone candidate in Orkney Island, returns from which dis- trict have not yet been received, The Liberal Unionists retain this seat,which was supposed to bea Liberal gain, and the supposed capture of which caused great fre- joicing among the Liberals on the threshhold of election. Sir Thomas Sutherland repre- sented Greenock in the late Parliament, hav- ing been elected in 1886. It is stated that Joseph Cowen, proprietor of the Newcastle Chronicle, and noted for his independence in politics, has agreed to op- pose Morley should the latter, which is almost certain, be appointed a member of Mr. Gladstone’s Cabinet and offer himself for re-election. When Mr. Cowen was a candidate with Mr. Moriey in 1885 for the two Newcastle seats Mr. Cowen hada larger majority than Mr. | Morley, Mr. Cowen’s vote being 10,459 and Mr. Morley’s 10,129. Mr. Cowen did not offer himself for re-election when the split arose | on the home rule question, and his party orthodoxy has been held in doubt by many. Since his retirement from Parliament he has written extensively for his own newspaper and for other political and literary publica- tions. The statement that he will oppose Mr. Morley has caused a decided sensation among the parties. OTTOMAN PERSECUTIONS. CRISIS APPROACHING IN THE AFFAIRS OF THE SULTAN. CONSTANTINOPLE, July 28.—The persecution ofthe Ottoman reform party continues un- abated. Most vigorous measures are en- | | ! ’ | geta certain fixed share of the returns from forced to suppress the agitation, and numer- | ous arrests have been made, The Sultan is convinced that there isa conspiracy afoot to | depose him, The constitutional party is dally increasing, being recruited from all classes. Great confusion reigns in the Yildiz Kiosk. Ministerial responsibility is a mere farce,and /muchaton,they should get that minimum the Sultan is really inthe handsof an arbi- | trary court cabal. The reactionary partyin Turkey has little faith in the Sultan, despite the fact that a few months agoin deference to Mohammedan bigotry he dismissed his liberaland broad- minded Ministers of the so-called ‘ ‘new Turk’’ school,and replaced them by men who have distinguished themselves by their intol- erance towards everything Christian. The new Grand Vizier and thré@e other of the Pachas who received portfolios in the new Administration have respectively held the Governorships of Crete, Salonica,Smyrna and Broussa, where they have left behind them names endeared tothe Mohammedan, but justly execrated by the Christiun inhab- itants of the place. Apparently the Sultan at the time th'‘s course was adopted had decided to abandon his retersions to consideration as a ideas, and by inaugurating an era of reaction to wih back the affection and regard of the Mohammedan population, not alone of the Ottoman Empire, but also in British and Dutch India, in Africa, and even in China. He seemed to realize that, whereas as mere Sultan of Turkey he would never be regarded as anything else than the sick man of European politics, he could as supreme head of the Mohammedan religion become and re- main one of the greatest powers of the world. But this change of policy has not brought peace and security to Abdul Hamid. Itcame too late to quiet the minds of the leaders of the fanatical Turks of the old school, and the Sultan by adopting a policy of conciliation sible positions in the Government. The fate of his brother Murad, whom ‘he succeeded, may be his soon. CHOLERA VICTIMS, WEARLY FIFTEEN HUNDRED DEATHSIN THREE DAYS. ST. PETERSBURG, July 28.—The official chol- era reports for July 23, 24 and 25 for all Russia show 2,583 new cases and 1,465 deaths, The Zemstov of Kassan has asked the Treasury for a joan of 500,000 roubles for seed and 140,- ! 000 roubles for sanitary measures. Similar applications are expected from other prov- inces that suffered from faminein i891. This foreshadows arepetition of the famine un- less more rigorous measures are taken. In view of the cholera in certain parts of Russia, allthe schools underthe control of the Holy Synod have been closed and will not be re-opened until October. The French Minister of Marine has request- ed the Council of Public Health to promptly prepare instruction for the maritime author- ities as tothe best preventive and protective measures to be adopted against cholera in- fection. There were four cholera deaths in Auber- villers and one at St. Denis yesterday. GENERAL FORFIGN NEWS. SENSATIONAL INCIDENTS AT THE FRENCH ANARCHISTS, PARIS, July 28.—During the trial at Ver- sailles of four Anarchists charged with steal- ing a quantity of dynamite which was used in the explosions of last May Daj} one of the prisoners, named Etlev.nt, was told by the Judge to stand. Instead of complying with the order, however, the prisoner remained seated and impudently replied, ‘‘Get up yourself. Why don’t you get up?’’ The Judge answered: ‘‘l am a magistrate and need not rise to speak to you.’’ Thereupon Etievant retorted: ‘‘One man is as good asanother. Getupif you want to speak to me; then I will get up too.’’ The ot.er prisoners followed the example of bravado set by Etlevant and adopted equally as insolent mien toward the Judge. Each in turn begana violent harangue and tried to expatiate on the subject of anarchy. The Judge, however, refused to listen to them and after a scene of disorder succeeded in silencing them, A MANIAC IN CHUROH.

The Plan of Wage Payment in the Iron and Steel Mills. The sliding scale in operation in many iron and steel plants is not generally understood. A writer inthe New York Sun thus explains it: : The way a sliding scale works in other bus!i- nesses might be illustrated by taking a street car forexample. The driver and conductor are paid now by thetrip orbytheday. Pay- ment by the trip would correspond to piece work and payment by the day to day’s wages. If, instead of either of these methods, they were paid a perrentage of receipts, sothat when the car took in $25 worth of fares a day they got $10 and when it took in $a day they g0Ot only $2, they would be somewhat in a similar position to their employ- ers that the tron-work men are when they agree to a sliding scale of wages. If the receipts of a street car service were high the men would be well paid; if the de- mand forrides on street cars fell, the men would be poorly paid. The owners furnish the plant; the men operate it, and the men the use of the plant. A sliding scale usually has a maximum and aminimum. The men andthe owners agree that under no circumstances shall the pay by the piece be estimated on a lower price than a certain minimum or ona higher price than a fixed maximum. That is, that if the owners and men agree that the men shall not, under any circumstances, be paid less than so pay, no matter how lowthe price of iron might fallin the market; and in return for this concession of the , owners, if the price above the maximum the owners to increase Or, toapply the simile still further to street car companies, the owners might agree that the wages should be based on the receipt of fares between $5 and $25 a day. When the receipts were only $4 the men would get as much pay as if the receipts were $5, while if the receipts were $30 they would get no more thairif they were $25. A sliding scale of pay is one form of profit- sharing, as it gives the workman a fixed pro- How that proportion shall be divided is gen- the workmen themselves. Whatthe owners consider most is the total cost to them perton of labor. To turn out total of their pay is the cost of labor tothe owners. That sum total the owners naturally want to keep down and the workmen want to increase. Yet it might be decreased with- loss to the majority of the workmen fall on the workmen in some department and not on the workmen in In the same way, if the manufac- turers, instead of the workmen’s associa- the detailed scale of they might wages, make changes which would reduce the totalcost of labor by de- creasing the pay of the high-priced workmen | without affecting the others. It has been customary inthe iron and steel | business for the workmen to be paid on a} sliding scale, based on the price of some Standard articie manufactured. This cri- terion may be steel rails, steel billets, plg iron, or anything else of standard demand in large quantities. It would be too complicated Sliding scale for every article of manufacture, and some standard article has been taken as the measure of value of the others, though the prices of the others may not and rarely dorise and fallin exactratio. , Both the manfacturers and the workmen adopted the sliding scale to prevent constant labor troubles. The priceof iron and steel products fluctuates greatly, and under a sys- tem of pay by the day or piece the workmen were constantly striking to get higher wages when the market price went up, or to pre- ventareduction in their wages when the market price fell. The workmen did not think it was fair that they should be paid no more when the price rose, and the manufac- turers Naturally sought to reduce wages when the market price oftheir product fell. The result was a succession of strikes and lockouts, such events taking place at almost every material alteration in the market price. It was thus that the sliding scale came to be adopted, and its workings, though by no means wholly satisfactory, have been pro ductive of fewer strikes than the old system. There rarely is trouble when the market price is high, as the manufacturers’ profits increase at the same time the workmen’s wages increase. Kecently the market price has been vibrating around the minimum of the sliding scale, and at the time ofthe |} num, witness said: ‘*I told Freda | fused, that ir she would go to sleep Homestead lockout it was below the mini- imum, so that the workmen were paid in the scale higher than the market price of the product. The manutacturers sought to lower the minimum so as to make the workmen share inthe reduction below the minimum market price of the scale. This was one of the points of contention. —— ——.

While plowingin afield on Jesse Doan’s farm,in Buckingham township, near Fur- long, one day recently, Frank Doan strucka curlously shaped filnt stone of akind not found in that vicinity. It was about five ‘site of a wood, inches long by about oneanda half inches wide in the center, with the edges sharp but irregular. Convinced that it was an imple- ment left by former Indian residents of that neighborhood, it having been found onthe neara chestnut tree that is saidto beover twohundred years old, Mr. Doan concluded to investigate further. He then dug down several feet and was rewarded by finding 110 stones of the same shape and kind, which those learned in the ways of the aborigines Say are ‘‘skinning Knives,.’’ These implements were undoubtedly brought to that section years ago bj the Indians, and Mr. Doan intends to make further search in the fall for other Indian relics.

MEMPHIs, Tenn., July 28.—The next step in the remarkable judicial history of the Mitchell- Ward tragedy will be Judge Dubose’s instructions to the jury. They will be deliv- ered to-morrow. Last evening counsel on both sides rested and announced that they were ee to submit the case without ar- gument, The most interesting scene of the trial oc- curred ear A afternoon, when the Judge decided that Alice Mitchell, the defendant, mere be te eg uvon the stand by the State and submitted to examination by Attorney- General. During the ordeal the prisoner’s father and brother watched her with ill-su pressed emotion, Tears coursed down the old.man’s cheeKs,and when it was all over he was totally unstrung. Indeed, there was but one person in the large assemblage who did not feel the relaxation of the severe tension of that half hourandthat was the object of interest herself. She seated herself so as not to crumple her dress and immediately en- tered into conversation with those around her, talking in an animated way and laugh- ing gaily at intervals. If there was anything lacking to prove to the minds ofthe people who have closely watched the proceedings from day to day that Alice Mitchell is insane the story of her affection for Freda Ward, and the motive which prompted the murder fully supplied the missing evidence. When the prisoner was ness stand she was aske General: **How long have you known Freda Ward?’’ **As long as I can remember.’’ i age want her to marry Ashley Roselle?” NO, **Why not?’ ** Because I wanted her myself.’’ | Here the witness broke down and wept.] **Did any words pass between you and Freda just before the killing?’’ **No, sir, she only winked hereye at me as she passed me in front of the custom-house.’’ **Did that mean anythin **Freda always told me th meant ‘llove you,’ ’’ **‘Why did you follow Freda down the stone laced onthe wit- by the Attorney- in particular?’. at winking the right eye walk?’ ‘*To cut her,’’ and the girl’s mouth shut down like a vice when she had spoken. **Why did you want tocut her?’’ **Because I knew I couldn’t have her and I did not want anybody else tohaveher. Iknew Harry Bil- ger loved Freda and I thought Ashley Roselle did, and I was afraid one of them would persuade her to marry him,.’’ the witness then detailed the story of the Killing of Freda Ward as follows: As I started down the hill I took the razor out of my pocket, and when I overtook her I cut her with the razor. I slashed her throat with the first stroke. She pulled awaya little and said, ‘*Oh, Alice!’’ or something like that. Then camea scream from Jo Ward or Christina Parnell, I don’t know which. I let go of Freda and turned around and Jo Ward smashed me with an umbrella, saying: **You dirt what are you doing to my sister?’’ said: **Il’m doing what I came here to do, and I don’t care if I hang for it.’ Jo raised the umbrella to strike me again andI cnt her on the chin, Ithink. I did not wantto hurt Jo, but when she called me that name it made me mad andl did not know whatlI was doing.

The press is making merry over Mrs. Bar- bara Turner of Columbus, O., who refuses to live with her husband because he snores., In histurn Mr. Turner sues for a divorce. Whata spectacle is this, my countrymen! Who blames Mrs. Turner for objectingto snoring? asks Kate Field’s Washington. Noone, but where is Mrs. furner’s wit that she can find no way outof her misery but absolute separation and consequent scandal and ridi- cule? Evidently she knows nothing of the philosophy of snoring, or she might have re- duced her husband to silence long ago. It isapity wedon’t learn a few lessons from the original inhabitants of thfs con- tinentand profit by them. Whoever heard an Indian snore? If Indians hever snore, why should the pale-face? I’lltell you why. In- ans have, from the beginning, lived and sleptin the open air. Snoring simply means sleeping with the mouth open—a most un- healthy as wellas hideous custom, the proper sieve for air beingthe nose. For Indians to | breathe through the. mouth would be to offer a receptacle for many an unwelcome guest as well as to warn the enemy of their presence. To guard against such evils Indians are taught to ae their mouths shut from earli- estinfancy. Many a time I’ve watched In- dian mothers close their babies’ mohths after putting them to sleep. Habit finally becomes second nature; hence the Indian 1s the most silent of animals. How many white mothers know whether their children breathe well or ill? How many take the pains to teach their offspring the office of the nose as compared with that of the mouth? How many are intelligent enough to realize that the difference between letting a child sleep open-mouthed and close- mouthed is the difference between a nuisance and decent peace? If Mr. Turner’s mother had been a squaw, his wife would have had no ground of complaint against him, and there would have nh one divorce less to record. . : ¢ Is it too late to offer a suggestion to this unhappy pair? It is difficult to teach old dogs ‘new tricks, though itis easy to muzzle any kind of a dog, old or young. Why can’t Mr. Turner be muzzled when he retires at night? The apparatus could be readily de- vised, and in ali probability might be dis- D with intime. By means let Mr, — = nee. ow that I’m in a gs stive frame of mind, I appeal to George M. Pullman to in- voke thegenius who will inventsucha gag as will silence, forevermore,not only Turner, but the maddening chorus which murders sleep On board the Pullman cars. Then, when this blessed invention is perfected, let every section have its muzzle, as every berth on steamers has its life- preseryer, and, whenever @ passenger becomes a nuisance by defying the laws of nature, let the porter gentiy, but firmly apply the peace preserver. This suggestion carries in its wake the peace of mijlions, to say nothing of the Tur- ners of Columbus, O. here is the inventor of the great American peace preserver?

Ate 930 lemons in sixty days. This is the accomplishment of.a resident of the West End, who is now lying flat on his backasa result, says the Ciacinnati rer. The feat was done by Geo. Unverzagt, who lives on Liberty street. He is employed by Stille & Duhlmeier, and a short time ago con- tracted a bad case of rheumatism. He went to a number of doctors and asked their aid in polling him through his bothersome ailment. e@ was prescribed for many times, but all the drugs he could conveniently pile into sees seemed to effect no change in his con- on. He was advised by friends to try various treatments unknown to the doctors, but which had accomplished some wonderful cures. Fora long time Underzagt carried two raw potatoes in either pants pocket, but found his disease only getting worse. Warm baths were alsorecommended to him and he took them continuously until somebody in- formed him he had been seriously mistaken, and that cold baths were quite the thing for rheumatism. sSothne victim took cold baths, which ina short time almost caused ossifica- tion ; so he stopped this so-called remedy. After having tried a number of like treat- ments upon the recommendation of people who claimed to be his friends Unverzagt was told one day that lemons, taken properly, would effecta positiveand permanent cure of his sickness. His informant said he was no doctor, and would not be one if he could, but that he Knew a thing or two about such mat- ters. His manner was so convincing that his victim determined to give his advice a little practice. He must eat a lemon the first day, and increase the dose one each day for thirty days. On the thirtieth day he should eat thirty lemons, and from then on he was to go backward, decreasing the dose in the same manner as he had advanced until another thirty days were up, when he would be a cured man. Unverzagt had always heard that lemons were good for rheumatism, and this fact made him place more than ordinary faith in the new prescription. He commenced the treatment about seventy days ago, and, strange to say, carried it out tothe very let- ter. He ate 930 lemons in that time and now the wonder is that heis living. He is being treated by the doctors for a poisonous condi- tion brought about by the reception of such - extraordinary amouat of acid into his sys- em. The case has excited a great deal of inter- estand Unverzagt, who right along made known to his neighbors the means he was using to cure himself of rheumatism, Is called ‘‘the lemon eater.’’ Certainly he beats all records in this direction, and his associates look upon him witha sort of awe when they contemplate the power of a sys- tem capable of counteracting the effect of so much acidity.

HE WAS NO FIGHTER, BUT— What Came of Cutting a Man Off Short Who Had Something to Say. From the New York Herald. It was about 10 0’clock at night and forty or fifty passengers were in the depotorstroll- ing about on the platform when a young man with a very long neck anda very long drawl to his voice came up to six or eight of us who sat ona big baggage truck and said: ‘*‘Gentlemen, there’ll bea man out here presently.’’ ‘*Well, what of it?’’ asked one of the group. ‘*‘He’ll askif any of youhasa bottle of whisky.’’ **Ssuppose he does?’’ . **Don't give him any. If you do he’ll get wild and I can’tcontrol him, Please, gen- tlemen, don’t offer himany liquor. He’s no fighter, but perhaps I ought tosay’’ —— ‘*He won’t get any whisky here.’’ ‘*Thank you, gentlemen. As I set outto tell you, he’s no fighter, but I ought to’’— ‘*We don’t care whether he’s a fighter or aot. ”’ ‘*Thank you. Hemay not come, but ifhe does you can make excuses. Be a little smooth with him. While, as I’ve told you before, he’s no fighter, he is’’— ‘‘And Itold you we didn’t care whether he’safighteror a duoffer!’’ impatiently in- terrupted our spokesman, who had been broken short offin telling a story. **Well, but’’ —— began the young man, but no one paid any attention, and he re- tired. It wasn’t five minutes before a man came out of the waiting-room and stood before us and asked :— ‘*Any one here gotanythingto drink? I’m spittin’ whole bales of cotton, and there isn’t a saloon within half a mile.’’ ‘*‘Yes, we’ve all got something, but you can’t get a drop—not even a smell!’’ shouted the story teller, who had just begun his yarn to be interrupted again. ‘*Why not?’’ ‘*Because we are not filling up duffers! Go on, now, or I’ll throw you over the house!’’ ‘-Will you? Whoop! That’s my game and here goes!’’ He. seized the story teller and gavehima toss which landed him on the ridge poleof the station house, Then he grabbed the next nearest and tossed him upon the awn- ing, and the third went overa pile of bag- gage and into the tender of a switch engine, The rest of us got out of his reach, and he picked up the baggage truck and flung it up to the beams of tne water tank. He had a negro man ready to toss when the young man came ont and seized him and took him away. The three men had just been helped down when the long-necKked young man came back to ask if anyone was burt. ‘‘Look here, mister, what sort of a man have you got there?’’ shouted the story- teller, who was pretty badly bruised. ‘*‘Why, I started to tell you before. He’s no fighter, as I remarked, but nes the feller who plays marbles with cannon balls in my side-show, and I wanted to caution you par- ticularly about not offeriug to throw him over a house or anything.’’ By aT OAS The Snake Season Opens Brilliantly. From the Pottstown (Pa.) Ledger. John B. Snyder of Barto, Berks County, the skillful watchMaker, was out after wild rasp- berries the other day on the premises of his brother,Jacob Snyder,above Forgedale,when he met with quite an adventure. He was pusy among some briars and brambles when a big black snade suddenly reared up near him andcame at him at full tilt. The only weapon Snyder had was his berry Kettle, which he swung at the head of the serpent, knocking it over, then jumped upon and dis- patched the enemy. Just then down froma bush dropped the mate of the uxly reptile andat once showed fight, but this one also after his set-to and victory. were abont five and a half feet long. One day recently while Mr. Snyder, who had the above adventure, was passing along a road not far from Barto, with John Kline, they saw a long object ahead of them which was at first supposed to be a long stick or whip, but as they drew near they thougnt it was a dead snake, They approached cau- tiously, and then saw that it was a **harn schlangen’’ of great size (nearly 81x feet),and avery lively and dangerous looking one, all ready for battle.

From the New York Recorder. toni There recently passed through San Antonio en route to the City of Mexico the principals in a romance stranger than was ever woven into drama or story. Nearly twenty years ago George Dunhaven, a prosperous young English tradesman, became involved in a difficulty with a neighbor and killed him. The act was done in self-defense, but tne only witness wasan enemy of Dunhaven, and he perjured himself for the sake of revenge. Dunraven was held toanswer to the charge of murder, and, ing no hope of securing justice, he effected his escape and fied ‘to this country under an assumed name. Fora year he punched cattle in West Texas, then went down into Mexico and devoted his attention to mining. He prospered, and in a couple of years was worth a great deal of money. in Mexico he met a handsome American girl who was trav- eling with her father and invalid mother. An attachment sprung upand they became en- gaged, but the father objected. Before the young lady left Mexico she was secretly mar- ried to Dunhaven, he promising that he would dispose of his Mexican property and follow hertothe States. There another at- tempt was to be made to overcome the objec- tions of the father and failing, Dunhaven was to claim his bride. Shortly after the departure of the Americans the young husband received word froma relativein England that the witness had made a confession completely exonerating him, and he decided to return to his native land, clear up his record and assume his rightful name before claiming his bride. He wrote to her explaining matters, but the letter miscarried. When he returned to America he found his wife’s parents both dead, and that she had gone, no one knew whither. He searched for her during an en- tire year, then, concluding that she _ had abandoned him, returned to England. There he eutered the British army and was sent abroad. Three years ago he left the service and purchased a handsome home near Man- chester and devoted his time to the education of his widowed sister’s children. The governess of the latter wasa handsome, ac- complished woman and Dunhaven fell des- perately in love with her. Not knowing whether his first wife was living or dead, he did not feel at liberty to declare his passion. He came to America and made another ex- haustive but futile search for the missing bride, and returned to England fully satisfied that he wasafree man. He laid slege to the heart of the stately governess and was ac- cepted. She told him that she had been once married, but was deserted by her husband, from whom she subsequently secured a di- vorce. By her first marriage she had one child, a daughter who was at school in America. And sothey were wedded. Dun- haven’s happiness was soon disturbed, how- ever, by whispers that his wife had deceived him. A meddlesome friend suggested that no one had ever seen a record of Mrs. Dun- haven’s first marriage. The wrathful hus- band soundiy caned the doubter of his wife’s honor, but thatonly set a hundred tongues to wagging where one had wagged before. Like Othello, Dunhaven began to grow sus- piciou§. Like most good husbands, he stood alittleinawe of his wife, and hesitated to ask her for proofs of her early marriage. When he did so he had become so suspicious that, with true American spirit, his wife told him plainly that, if he could not depend upon her unsupported word, he was at liberty to leave her, Leave her he did, but was soon back, suing for forgiveness. She graciously forgave him, andthen bade him secure pas- sage on the next steamer for America. ‘*Your doubts will return,’’ she said. ‘*‘I must set them at rest forever.’’ She took him directly to the City of Mexico, and there showed him the record of her mar- riage, and introduced him tothe priest who performed the ceremony and who fully iden- tified her. That marriage register did more than set his doubts at rest; it astounded him. It proved thatin 1875 the woman by his side was not only married, but married to him- self. The wife was as much astounded as the husband, andit took them fully an hour to understand just howit all happened. It seems that the young wife, weary of waiting forher husband, returned to Mexico. She there learned that he had gone to England. She followed him, and was searching for him there while he was searching for her in America. In England her babe was born, and feeling that she was deserted by the man she loved, she discarded his name and took that of her mother. She devoted berself to teaching and finally returned to America. Here she secureda divorce and placed her daughterinschool. She had not ceased to love the man whowon her youthful heart, and made frequent pilgrimages to England, hoping yet dreading tosee him. During her last visit there she was wooed and won by the man who ha1 married herin Mexico so many years before. The daughter was telegraphed for, and met her mother and long-lost sire in this city on their return from Mexico, and together they proceeded to England. It isa strange drama in real life, and one without a **heavy villain.’’ PETERS, at French Market, has a car load of nice cold melons. Try one. CAMELS IN ARIZONA, The Herd Still Increasing—-A Burro’s Fright. Phenix Letter to the San Francisco Chronicle. The original number of fifteen in the herd of wild camels that runs on the Arizona desert between Yuma and Ehrenburg on the north and south and Wickenburg and the Colorado River on the east and west, has in- creased to more than sixty, notwithstanding that a number of them have been captured and taken away by the circus representatives and the prospectors kill them every time they have the opportunity. The original fifteen were broughto this country at the instigation of the United States Government before the war, for the purpose of packing military stores across the desert, and were used forthat purpose for twoorthree years. It was found that peb- bles and boulders weretoo severe for their feet, and while they did very well on the Sand of the desert, as soon as they reached the foothills their feet became so sore that they were unable totravel, and finally they were turned loose to take care of them- selves. For a number of years there were no white men through the part of the desert in which they ranged, and as the Indians were very superstitious about them they were not molested until within the last few years, when they had increased to more than 100. Later on they became a source of annoyance to the prospectors on account of the fear the horses had for them, and they began killing the camels. I well remember the first time I saw them. I was coming across from the Colorado to the Harqua Halla on foot, with my supplies and cooking utensils packed on a burro that had seen long servicein thatlineof business. I was only provided with water enough for myself, andon accountof not having had anything to drink fora day and: night the animal was pretty stupid, so much sothat now and then I hadtothrow astone at him to Keep him going. We were coming through a vast expanse of greaseweed almost as high as my head, when mM pry A the burro stopped, raised his head, ahd gave a snort that could have been heard halfamile. Ithought it must be Indians and, throwing a cartridge into my Winches. ter, took coverin the brush. Peering over the top of the weedsI soon saw the camels coming with their peculiar swinging trot, showing only their heads and humps above the brush. That burro evinced more life than I had ever seen him show before,and I do not think any horse inthe country could have outrun him. My pack broke in the first 100 yards, and meat, beans, coffee, and tools were scat- tered for five miles. The camels went on their way, and it was several years until I saw any ofthem again, when one ef them was captured and brought into Phenix, where it finally died.

A BIG GAME PRESERVE, What Austin Corbin Is Doing to! Perpet- uate American Sports. From the Forest and Stream. Austin Corbin’s huge game park in New Hampshire is a success chiefly in relation to the breeding of the animais in their new en- vironment—it can hardly be called captivity when the animals are at liberty to wander at their own sweet will over 28,000acres of wood- land, hill and valley. Of the twenty-two buffalo which were put in abouta fread ago eight of the cows are now in calf, and two young have been added to the herd. Theelk, which bred to a limited extenton Mr. Corbin’s Long Island estate, have found their mountainous New Hamp- shire home more to their liking, and have al- ready increased 50 percent. Nextto the elk the most accurate count has been kept of the moose, who, unlike their gregarious breth- ren, go in pairs at certain seasons. The other animals are also increasing. While in London two years since Mr. Corbin bought 20,000 hawthorn trees. Four thousand ofthese have been planted this spring. They are forthe purpose of forming a hedge strong enough to prevent the buffalo and other large animals from getting out. This tree, of which there aretwo varieties, the white and Diack, is used very extensive- ly for inclosing the game parksof England and Europe. There will be no huntingin the park at present, though in future years when the animals have multiplied beyond the resources of their domain, it is possible than Mr. Corbin may adopt this method of thinning them out. It is sufficient to say that the pore is not designed for hunting. Neither is it primarily deg oe for scientific s, breeding, etc., of The development of Mr. Corbin’s game park enterprise is being watched with de- cided interest by sportsmen and naturalists. Success in New Hampshire, when it shall have been demonstrated beyond the perad- venture of a doubt, will prompt similar en- terprises in other parts of the country. While much interest is being felt inthe introduc- tion of foreign species, AmericaDs are nat- urally most concerned with the successful conservation of bands of American big game —the elk and the antelope and the buffalo, A QUEER FARO GAME. His System Beatthe Bank, but Wouldn’t Do for Earthquakes. Whenever I see a faro game Iam reminded ofa story told on Silverpeg, anold pros- pector. He wasa taciturn man, and spent most ofhis time prcepeat in Sonora and Arizona. He got his nickname from the fact that one of his legs was amputated at the knee, necessitating his wearing a wooden peg, and the additional fact that he was always prospecting for silver. Silverpeg bad two ambitions in life—one was to strike a rich silver mine, in which event he swore he would make himself a silver leg to replace the wooden ore he hobbled around on; the other was to beat at faro by hissystem. His system was for certain cards to win Clear through and others to lose in the same man- ner. : For years Silverpeg has spent his summers in prospecting without findinga ‘‘rich silver mine.’’ Onthe advent of winter he would come to town and endeavor to break the faro banks with his system. The day the earth- quake occurred he was at Bavispe, Sonora, and was playing faro. He was playing his system, and had been coppering the jack. The jack had lost three times, Silverpeg was in a happy mood, as his system was proving a winning one. Hecoppered the jack clear up to the limit, being sure that his system was right and that the jack would lose out. But before the dealer could make aturnthe earthquake came, the walls of the house shook and the chairs and tables began toslide overthe floor, and the dealersand players being badly frightened made a rush for thedoor. When they got out on the street the snock was over. The play- ers, after recovering from their fright, re- sumed their places at thetable. They had been so suddenly surprised by the shock that they had not gathered up their checks, which on their return were apparently just as they had been placed. The dealer took his seat, made a turn and the jack lost. The shock had knocked the copper off of Sllverpeg’s bet, and he had not noticed it. The dealer took the betinand Silverpeg was dumfounded. He saw what the earthquake had done. His disgust was intense. Gather- ing up his remaining chips he cashed them in,and turning tothe players,he said: ‘*Boys, I played faro before I learned the Lord’s Prayer; Ihave tackled brace games before, but this isthe first time I ever struck a bank where Providence stoodin with the house. My system was allright, andif the Lord had held back that shock a few deals I would. have broke the bank. I can beat the box, but I can’t beat Providence. I will never play faro again; the odds are too great.’’ Silverpeg kept his word, and no induce- ment could ever persuade him to play faro, research into the habi the various animals. Lectured the King. From the Galignani Messenger. A certain American lady lately had a curi- ous adventure while visiting Wurtemburg. The King of that country. like the Kaiser, isa very indifferent whip, and while entering the Stuttgart Schloss nearly drove overa lady who was crossing the road. She, however, with the sangfroid characteristic of the daughters of the West, promptly seized the horses’ heads and told the King in pretty strong terms what she thought of his con- duct. The young lady was unaware that she was giving the length of her tongue to a king un- tilthe next day, when she received a ietter from one of His vee ge Bs chamberlains beg- ging her acceptance of the royal photograph as a souvenir of his clumsiness and her es- cape. : Vanderbilt’s Way.

Meissonier answered: ‘*The Chess Players.’’ ‘‘Whom Goes it belong to?’’ was Mr. Vanderbilt’s next question. ‘‘To Herr. Meyer of Dresden,’’ was the answer, That very night Mr. Vanderbilt dispatched a secretary to Dresden, who went straight to Herr Meyer and demanded to Know his price. *«£10,000,’’ replied the owner, thinking that he had effectually frightened his interroga- tor. ‘‘Itakeit,’’ said the secretary, to the great astonishment of Herr Meyer, and take it he — Comes back — every cent that ou’ve paid for r.
